Context menus

A context menu command shows in the Apps menu when the user right-clicks a user or a message. It has no options and no description.

import { bot, contextMenu } from 'botflare';


const avatar = contextMenu('user', { name: 'Show avatar' }, (c) =>
  c.reply(`${c.target.username}`, { ephemeral: true }),
);


const words = contextMenu('message', { name: 'Count words' }, (c) =>
  c.reply(`${c.target.content.split(/\s+/).filter(Boolean).length} words`, { ephemeral: true }),
);


export default bot({ commands: [avatar, words] });
  • Add context menus to commands, next to the slash commands, and run npx botflare sync again.
  • c.target is the user or the message that the user clicked.
  • The handler has reply, defer, modal and the follow-up calls.
  • A context menu takes permissions, contexts, installs and locales like a command. locales takes a name only.

A context menu and a slash command can have the same name. botflare keeps them apart.
