Slash Commands

The slash command system provides builders for creating Discord application commands with full support for options, subcommands, localization, and permissions.

SlashCommandBuilder

Main builder for creating slash commands.

class SlashCommandBuilder {
  readonly name: string;
  readonly name_localizations?: LocalizationMap;
  readonly description: string;
  readonly description_localizations?: LocalizationMap;
  readonly options: ToAPIApplicationCommandOptions[];
  readonly contexts?: InteractionContextType[];
  readonly default_member_permissions?: Permissions | bigint | number | null;
  readonly dm_permission?: boolean;
  readonly default_permission?: boolean;
  readonly nsfw?: boolean;
  readonly integration_types?: ApplicationIntegrationType[];

  constructor();
  setName(name: string): this;
  setDescription(description: string): this;
  setNameLocalization(locale: LocaleString, localizedName: string | null): this;
  setNameLocalizations(localizations: LocalizationMap | null): this;
  setDescriptionLocalization(locale: LocaleString, localizedDescription: string | null): this;
  setDescriptionLocalizations(localizations: LocalizationMap | null): this;
  setDefaultMemberPermissions(permissions: Permissions | bigint | number | null | undefined): this;
  setDMPermission(enabled: boolean | null | undefined): this;
  setDefaultPermission(value: boolean): this;
  setNSFW(nsfw?: boolean): this;
  setContexts(...contexts: InteractionContextType[]): this;
  setIntegrationTypes(...integrationTypes: ApplicationIntegrationType[]): this;
  
  // Option methods
  addStringOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandStringOption) => SlashCommandStringOption): this;
  addIntegerOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandIntegerOption) => SlashCommandIntegerOption): this;
  addBooleanOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandBooleanOption) => SlashCommandBooleanOption): this;
  addUserOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandUserOption) => SlashCommandUserOption): this;
  addChannelOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandChannelOption) => SlashCommandChannelOption): this;
  addRoleOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandRoleOption) => SlashCommandRoleOption): this;
  addMentionableOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandMentionableOption) => SlashCommandMentionableOption): this;
  addNumberOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandNumberOption) => SlashCommandNumberOption): this;
  addAttachmentOption(input: (builder: SlashCommandAttachmentOption) => SlashCommandAttachmentOption): this;
  
  // Subcommand methods  
  addSubcommand(input: (subcommand: SlashCommandSubcommandBuilder) => SlashCommandSubcommandBuilder): this;
