Controller

function in meocord/decorator Since 4.0.0

Controller(
  options?: ControllerOptions,
): (
  target: abstract new (...args: any[]) => unknown,
  propertyKey?: string | symbol,
) => void

Marks a class as a controller, whose methods handle commands, components, messages, reactions or events.

Use it on every class of handlers, and list the class in @MeoCord({ controllers }). Logic the handlers share, such as database access, belongs in a service it injects.

Parameters

Name	Type	Default	Since	Description
`options?`	`ControllerOptions`		4.1.0	Whether the handlers it declares take the stages of the classes it extends.
`options.inheritStages?`	`boolean`	`true`	4.1.0	Whether the class-level guards, interceptors, filters and cooldowns of the classes this one extends also apply to the handlers it declares itself. `false` limits those handlers to this class's own class and method stages; handlers it inherits keep their base's stages either way.
`options.inheritedRoutes?`	`'keep' \| 'replace'`	'keep'`; the next major version (5.0) replaces them by default	4.2.0	What a handler this class re-decorates answers of the routes its base classes declare for it. `'keep'` answers them as well as its own; `'replace'` answers only the routes this class declares for it, of every kind: commands, component patterns, message patterns, reactions and autocompletes. A command no handler answers any more is not registered. A method overridden without decorators keeps every route it inherits either way.

Returns

Returns a property decorator.

(
  target: abstract new (...args: any[]) => unknown,
  propertyKey?: string | symbol,
) => void
