How to keep track of the number of times a user has been mentioned?












0















In my bot, I have a message counter that stores the number of times a user sent a message in the server.

I was trying to count how many times a user got mentioned in the server. Does anyone know how could I do it?

          You can use message.mentions.members (or message.mentions.users) to see the mentions in a message. You can store the number of mentions for every user: every time they are mentioned, you increase the count.





          var mention_count = {};

          client.on('message', message => {
          for (let id of message.mentions.users.keyArray()) {
          if (!mention_count[id]) mention_count[id] = 1;
          else mention_count[id]++;
          }
          });


          Please note that mention_count will be reset every time you restart your bot, so remember to store it in a file or in a database to avoid losing it.



          Edit: below you can see your code applied to mentions: every time there's a mention to count, it gets stored in the level value of the score.



          client.on('message', message => {
          if (!message.guild) return;
          for (let id of message.mentions.users.keyArray()) if (id != message.author.id) {
          let score = client.getScore.get(id, message.guild.id);
          if (!score) score = {
          id: `${message.guild.id}-${id}`,
          user: id,
          guild: message.guild.id,
          points: 0,
          level: 0
          };
          score.level++;
          client.setScore.run(score);
          }
          });

          • thanks for responding..I was following a tutorial & I removed levels and I want to store mentions in level .Here is code for points or messages: let score; if (message.guild) { score = client.getScore.get(message.author.id, message.guild.id); if (!score) { score = { id: ${message.guild.id}-${message.author.id}, user: message.author.id, guild: message.guild.id, points: 0, level: 1 } } score.points++; client.setScore.run(score); } Can you rewrite and store mentions in level
