$getChannelVar[]
$getChannelVar reads a variable scoped to a Discord channel. The variable value is specific to a channel. When called with only a name, it reads from the channel where the command is being executed (((channel.id))). When a Channel ID is provided, the variable is read from the specified channel; an empty Channel ID counts as omitted. If there is no current channel, the error Missing context for channel variables. is raised. The function takes 1 or 2 arguments.
Syntax
$getChannelVar[name] or $getChannelVar[name;Channel ID]Reading: the value stored for the selected context is returned. If nothing is stored there (or the stored value is empty, null or empty/null), the default value declared for this variable in the Bot Creator Variables catalogue is returned and stored when it is not empty; otherwise an empty string is returned. The name is trimmed and a leading bc_ is ignored. Stored values are case-sensitive (Score and score are two different values), while declared defaults are matched case-insensitively.
JavaScript (BDJS) equivalent:
await db.channel.get('name')— see db.channel.
