Popii / event

Function: event()

event<K>(handler): PopiiEventFunction<K>

Defined in: define/event.ts:52

Wraps a Discord.js event handler with the Popii EventPop context.

Name the file after the Discord.js event you want to handle (e.g. guildMemberAdd.ts) and drop it in src/events/. Popii loads it automatically and infers the required Gateway intents from the filename — no manual intent configuration needed.

The first argument is always EventPop (the Popii context object). The remaining arguments match the Discord.js event signature exactly.

Type Parameters

K

K extends keyof ClientEvents

Parameters

handler

PopiiEventFunction<K>

The asynchronous function to run when the event fires.

Returns

PopiiEventFunction<K>

});
