Private messaging a user

问题

I am currently using the discord.js library and node.js to make a discord bot with one function - private messaging people.

I would like it so that when a user says something like "/talkto @bob#2301" in a channel, the bot PMs @bob#2301 with a message.

So what I would like to know is... how do I make the bot message a specific user (all I know currently is how to message the author of '/talkto'), and how do I make it so that the bot can find the user it needs to message within the command. (So that /talkto @ryan messages ryan, and /talkto @daniel messages daniel, etc.)

My current (incorrect code) is this:

client.on('message', (message) => {
    if(message.content == '/talkto') {
        if(messagementions.users) { //It needs to find a user mention in the message
            message.author.send('Hello!'); //It needs to send this message to the mentioned user
    }
}

I've read the documentation but I find it hard to understand, I would appreciate any help!

The send method can be found in a User object.. hence why you can use message.author.send... message.author refers to the user object of the person sending the message. All you need to do is instead, send to the specified user. Also, using if(message.content == "/talkto") means that its only going to run IF the whole message is /talkto. Meaning, you can't have /talkto @me. Use message.content.startsWith().

client.on('message', (message) => {
    if(message.content.startsWith("/talkto")) {
        let messageToSend = message.content.split(" ").slice(2).join(" ");
        let userToSend = message.mentions.users.first();

        //sending the message
        userToSend.send(messagToSend);
    }
}

Example use:

/talkto @wright Hello there this is a dm!
