# Setting a command as guild-only
Sometimes, you may need to require a command to only be usable in servers. Maybe it displays server information or gets a server emoji. No matter what it does, setting it as guild-only is straightforward!
First, get the command you want to make guild-only.
const { Command } = require('discord.js-commando');
module.exports = class MeowCommand extends Command {
constructor(client) {
super(client, {
name: 'meow',
group: 'first',
memberName: 'meow',
description: 'Replies with a meow, kitty cat.',
});
}
run(message) {
return message.say('Meow!');
}
};
After description
, add a guildOnly
setting and set it to true
.
super(client, {
name: 'meow',
group: 'first',
memberName: 'meow',
description: 'Replies with a meow, kitty cat.',
guildOnly: true,
});
And that's all there is to it! When used in a DM, the bot will not permit the command's use, and you will no longer receive errors!
