Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 10,551 PointsBot not returning a message. How do I fix this?
So after following along twice, I keep getting the same error. I type into the discord server my question, at the bottom it says "ChatGPT is typing" then it stops and nothing happens. What could be causing this?
Code:
require('dotenv').config();
const { Client, IntentsBitField } = require('discord.js');
const { Configuration, OpenAIApi } = require('openai');
const client = new Client({
intents: [
IntentsBitField.Flags.Guilds,
IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMessages,
IntentsBitField.Flags.MessageContent,
]
});
client.on('ready', () => {
console.log("ChatGPT is online");
});
const configuration = new Configuration({
apiKey: process.env.API
});
const openai = new OpenAIApi(configuration);
client.on('messageCreate', async (msg) => {
if (msg.author.bot) return;
if (msg.channel.id !== process.env.CHANNEL) return;
if (msg.content.startsWith('!')) return;
let conversationLog = [
{
role: 'system',
content: 'You are a friendly chatbot.'
}
];
await msg.channel.sendTyping();
let previousMessages = await msg.channel.messages.fetch({ limit: 15 });
previousMessages.reverse();
previousMessages.forEach((message) => {
if (msg.content.startsWith('!')) return;
if (message.author.id !== client.user.id && msg.author.bot) return;
if (message.author.id !== msg.author.id) return;
conversationLog.push({
role: 'user',
content: message.content,
});
});
conversationLog.push({
role: 'user',
content: msg.content
});
const res = await openai.createChatCompletion({
model: 'gpt-3.5-turbo',
messages: conversationLog,
});
msg.reply(res.data.choices[0].message);
});
client.login(process.env.TOKEN);

Treehouse StaffHey Jeremiah Lewis 👋
It's hard to say what is causing this issue if I had to guess it most likely has to do with reaching limits. Most likely it's either timing out because of lengthy responses or you're running into the rate limiter. Are there any errors / warnings being shown in the console where you have the code running? This should provide more information as to what is happening 🙂
Hope this helps!
