How to open a file in folders with discord.js

I am now coding a Discord bot in a folder named "bot", and I am making it play audio file. But I face a problem. If every files I want to make it play are stored in "bot", the folder will look mess. So I want to create a new folder named "music" in "bot". But I don't know to open the file in this way. Here is a part of my original code:
if (cmd === "play" && message.member.voice.channel) {
const connection = await message.member.voice.channel.join();
const dispatcher = connection.play('01. Snow halation.flac');
dispatcher.on('start', () => {
console.log('Now playing!');
});
dispatcher.on('finish', () => {
console.log('Finished playing!');
connection.disconnect();
});
dispatcher.on('error', console.error);
I want let file "01. Snow halation.flac" be in "music", and how can I make it play?

const dispatcher = connection.play('./music/01. Snow halation.flac');

Discord.js | Bot doesn't join VC and doesn't give error

so basically when I execute my play cmd with the song I want while I am in VC, my bot does not respond to it and doesn't give any errors but if I just type play without the song I want, I get my Please provide song response.
This is the main file
const distube = require('distube');
client.distube = new distube(client, { searchSongs: true, emitNewSongOnly: true })
client.distube
.on('playSong', (message, queue, song) => message.channel.send(
`Playing \`${song.name}\` - \`${song.formattedDuration}\`\nRequested by: ${song.user}\n${status(queue)}`,
))
.on('addSong', (message, queue, song) => message.channel.send(
`Added ${song.name} - \`${song.formattedDuration}\` to the queue by ${song.user}`,
))
.on('error', (message, e) => {
message.channel.send(`An error occured: ${e}`)
})
and this is the play cmd:
const distube = require("distube");
module.exports = {
name: 'play',
aliases: ['p'],
description: 'play a song!',
async execute(client, message, args) {
const VC = message.member.voice.channel;
if(!VC) return message.reply('Join VC or no music!');
const music = args.join(" ");
if(!music) return message.reply("Please provide me a song name");
await client.distube.play(message, music);
}
}
the packages I use are:
npm i distube
npm i #discordjs/opus
npm i ffmpeg-static
for references, these are the things that I looked at:
https://distube.js.org/guide/example-bot.html
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbPqM6JcGA4&t=883s
This is also not the first time I'm getting this error. I tried using different packages before but still didn't work. All of them don't respond when I provide the song I want. Basically, my only problem is that the bot doesn't join the VC. Does anyone know how to fix this?

In order to operate distube, you also require ytdl-core in your arsenal of packages, which you can install with the same npm install command as always.

This is due to you enables searchSongs but doesn't listen to searchResult event.
Simply edit searchSongs: false in your DisTube constructor to fix this.

Dialogflow fulfilment : agent.add() not returning response to webhook (twilio), works good with dialogflow console and google assistant

I'm creating a chatbot using dialogflow, firebase and twilio on Whatsapp. The interaction works well using the responses from the Intents and using the inline editor function, writes data to the firebase database too. But when I try to return the response from the fulfilment inline editor using the agent.add() method the responses are shown only in the dialogflow console interaction (and the google assistant as well), but not in the Twilio-whatsapp webhook integration. The logs in the GCP show that the data is being read when a request is made from using a text from twilio-whatsapp number.
I just want that the agent.add() text to be returned to twilio message body.
Or if there is some other possible way to do it, so that I can generate dynamic responses based on the data being read from the database.

In the twilio debugger I get a response that the message body is invalid.
MESSAGE
Message body must be specified
Invalid Body
Warning - 14103
Message Invalid Body
The Message body does not contain valid text or a media URL
Something mentioned here too, but the comments there didn't help.
Am I missing something, or is it a bug as others are facing it too??
Thanks in advance.

Discord JS (Bot Presence)

So, in Discord, users can have a custom status, however, when I try to set my bot up with one nothing happens...Even though CUSTOM_STATUS is available
I have bot.user.setPresence({ activity: { name: "Testing", type: "CUSTOM_STATUS" }, status: "online" });
inside of the ready event. I was just wondering why this doesn't work and if there is a work around

According to the docs.
Bots cannot set a CUSTOM_STATUS, it is only for custom statuses received from users
The valid types you could choose from are:
PLAYING
STREAMING
LISTENING
WATCHING

Try client.user.setActivity(Your Status)
I am using this and its working fine
If you are using v12 then i cant help you

You should make sure that your setPresence command is in your ready event. For example, this is my ready command:
const {PREFIX} = require('../config.json');
const { Message } = require('discord.js');
const message = require('./message.js');
//must update when new module.exports event happens
const leaveEvent = require('../util/guildMemberRemove');
const invitecounterEvent = require('../util/guildMemberAddinvitecounter');
const modmailEvent = require('../util/modmail');
module.exports = (client, message) => {
//must update when new module.exports event happens
leaveEvent(client);
invitecounterEvent(client);
modmailEvent(client);
console.log(' ');
console.log(`Hi, ${client.user.username} is now online! My Prefix is ${PREFIX}`);
console.log(`Bot has started, with ${client.users.size} users, in ${client.channels.size} channels of ${client.guilds.size} guilds.`);
//client.user.setActivity(`Serving ${client.guilds.size} servers`); (big servers only)
client.user.setActivity('U', { type: 'WATCHING' }) //PLAYING, STREAMING, LISTENING, WATCHING, CUSTOM_STATUS
.then(presence => console.log(`Activity set to: WATCHING ${presence.activities[0].name}`))
.catch(console.error);
console.log(`Ready as ${client.user.tag} to serve in ${client.channels.cache.size} channels on ${client.guilds.cache.size} servers, for a total of ${client.users.cache.size} users.`);
client.generateInvite(['SEND_MESSAGES', 'MANAGE_GUILD', 'MENTION_EVERYONE', 'ADMINISTRATOR',])
.then(link => {
console.log(`Generated bot invite link: ${link}`);
// eslint-disable-next-line no-undef
inviteLink = link;
});
};
The part that should help you is client.user.setActivity('U', { type: 'WATCHING' })
The different types you can do are PLAYING, STREAMING, LISTENING, and WATCHING.

Discord.js fired several times

The code that I made is fired several times, I have tried to add returns but it doesn't matter. I'm running the code with a raspberry pi 3.
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const { prefix, token } = require('./config.json');
const client = new Discord.Client();
client.once('ready', () => {
console.log('Ready!')
})
client.on('error', console.error);
client.on('message', message =>{
if (message.channel.id == '...........') {
console.log(message.content);
}
if (message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}ping`)) {
if (message.member.roles.some(role => role.name === '⚙️ | Manager'))
{message.channel.send('Pong!');} else {
message.channel.send('Not enough rights! :no_entry:');
}}
if (message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}test`)) {
if (message.author.id == '.........') {
const role = message.guild.roles.find('name', 'test');
message.member.addRole(role);
message.channel.send('test');
}}});
client.login(token);
I expect it to output it onces, but I don't get it to work.
This is the output:
I want him to do it only once.

Yeah I've had that problem before, simply turn off the bot from everything you're hosting it on, you were probably logged in on it multiple times, that might be because you're running it on a raspberry pi and did not properly shut it.
