javascript - discord.js bot replies to itself

Question

I am currently coding my first discord bot, it can already play YouTube music.

if (message.content.includes("Good Job") || 
    message.content.includes("good job")) {
    message.channel.sendMessage("Good Job everyone :smirk:");
}

As you see, if someone types "good job" (this is just an example) then the bot will reply with "good job everyone :smirk:), but then the spam will begin: the bot reads his own message and replies to it.

How can I prevent the bot from answering itself?

Answer 1

Use this in the on message event:

if (message.author.bot) return;
