Error Handling

Using our external package reciple-anticrash simplifies error handling. This prevents process and client errors from crashing your bot; instead, they log the stack trace and send the error to a Discord channel for convenient debugging.

Two ways to install reciple-anticrash

• Select the addon reciple-anticrash when creating the bot project using npm create reciple@latest
• Install the package reciple-anticrash using npm i reciple-anticrash.
  • Then create a new module in your ./modules/addons folder. In this case we will name it reciple-anticrash.js.

    import { RecipleAnticrash } from 'reciple-anticrash';
    export default new RecipleAnticrash({
      reportChannels: process.env.ERROR_CHANNELS ? process.env.ERROR_CHANNELS.split(',') : []
    });

To add error channels, simply create a new entry in your .env file and add your channels separated by commas.

ERROR_CHANNELS="123456789012345678,987654321098765432"

Now, whenever there is an error, your bot will display these fancy error messages in its logs and error channels without crashing the entire bot process!
