@commandkit/legacy

Legacy command handler plugin for CommandKit.

Installation

npm install @commandkit/legacy

Usage

This package provides a commandkit plugin that enables legacy command handler.

import { legacy } from '@commandkit/legacy';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [legacy()],
});

This plugin also enables HMR for legacy commands, events and validations.

Using localization api with legacy commands

Since localization api is accessed through ctx.locale() in commandkit, legacy commands are not able to use this api as ctx is not exposed to legacy commands to maintain backward compatibility. In order to use the localization api with legacy commands, this plugin exposes locale() hook to access the localization api.

import { locale } from '@commandkit/legacy';

export const data = {
  name: 'hello',
  description: 'Say hello',
};

export async function run({ interaction }) {
  // initialize the localization api
  const { t } = locale();

  // use the localization api
  const message = await t('hello', {
    name: interaction.user.username,
  });

  // send the message
  await interaction.reply(message);
}

The locale() function can only be called inside the run function of the legacy command (or any other functions invoked inside the run function).
