MEIRABA — meiraba

Prefix command with a cooldown. Shows how you can get the actual time remaining in until you can use the command again.

const lib = require('lib')({token: process.env.STDLIB_SECRET_TOKEN});

if (context.params.event.content === '!command') {
  let cooldown_time = 60 //Time in seconds
  let cooldown = await lib.utils.kv['@0.1.16'].get({
    key: `${context.params.event.author.id}_cooldown`,
  });
  if (cooldown) {
    let remaining_time = Math.floor(
      parseInt(cooldown + cooldown_time * 1000) - new Date().getTime()
    );
    let time_sec = Math.floor(remaining_time / 1000);
    await lib.discord.channels['@0.2.0'].messages.create({
      channel_id: context.params.event.channel_id,
      content: `Wait for another \`${time_sec}sec\` before using this command!`,
    });
  } else {
    await lib.utils.kv['@0.1.16'].set({
      key: `${context.params.event.author.id}_cooldown`,
      value: new Date().getTime(),
      ttl: cooldown_time,
    });
    await lib.discord.channels['@0.2.0'].messages.create({
      channel_id: context.params.event.channel_id,
      content: `Command used!`,
    });
  }
