node.jsdiscord.jsmention

How do I mention a role with Discord.js?

I am making a bot and I am trying to Ping a certain role. Here is the relevant code:

let msga = msg.author;
msg.channel.send("@NES Found one!! " + msga);

@NES is the role I am trying to ping/mention.

Solution

  • Just add an opening and closing angle bracket and use the role id to make the mention.

    msg.channel.send("<@id> Found one!! " + msga);

    This answer was valid for older versions of discord.js (I believe v11 and under) but is now invalid for v12+ use yummypasta's solution for the newer versions.
