Custom Command

$getOption

Retrieves the value of a user-provided option from an interaction, such as a slash command. This function allows you to access the specific input a user has provided for a command option.

Usage

$getOption[Option name]

Explanation:

  • $getOption: The function call.
  • [Option name]: The name of the option you want to retrieve the user's input for. This name is case-sensitive and must match the option name defined in your slash command.

Example

Let's say you have a slash command with an option named "message". The following image shows an example of how a user might input a value for this option.

Example Slash Command Input

In this case, the user has entered "Hello, world!" as the value for the "message" option. To retrieve this value, you would use $getOption[message].

Output

If you use $getOption[message] in the scenario above, the output would be:

Important Considerations:

  • Case Sensitivity: The Option name is case-sensitive. Make sure it exactly matches the name you defined for the option in your slash command setup.
  • Interaction Type: This function is primarily designed for use within interaction-based commands, like slash commands.
