Managing messages

Replying to a message
client.on("messageCreate", async (message)=> {
    const member = await message.member;
    if (member.bot == true) return;
    if (message.content == "hi"){
       message.createMessage({ content: "hey there!" });
    }
});
Logging things to a specific channel
client.on("messageUpdate", async (message)=> {
    client.createMessage("channel id", { content: `A message has been updated (channel id: ${message.channelID})` });
});
Deleting bad words
client.on("messageCreate", async (message)=> {
    if (message.content.includes("fuck")) message.delete();
});
Editing messages
There's different ways to edit messages sent by the bot.
1. Storing new message.
client.on("messageCreate", async (message)=> {
   const member = await message.member;
   if (member.bot == true) return;
   if (message.content == "!ping"){
       let reply = await message.createMessage({ content: ".." });
       await reply.editMessage({ content: "pong!" });
   }
});
2. Using editLastMessage
client.on("messageCreate", async (message)=> {
   const member = await message.member;
   if (member.bot == true) return;
   if (message.content == "!ping"){
       await message.createMessage({ content: ".." });
       await message.editLastMessage({ content: "pong!" });
   }
});
