I've made a warn command that gives the mentioned user a warned role, but I ran into a problem. Sometimes server owners might forget about moving the role of the bot above the warned role, and that would cause the bot to not be able to give the role to the user. I've tried using role.editable, but it returns false even if the role is below the bot's role. The user to warn has also lower roles than the bot. Here is my code:
const { DiscordAPIError } = require("discord.js");
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const fs = require("fs");
const ms = require("ms")
//let warnedRoleList = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync("./roleIDs/warnedRole.json", "utf-8"));
var mongoPath = '../../mongo.js' //path.join(__dirname, '..', 'mongo.js');
const mongo = require(mongoPath)
const setWarnedSchema = require('../../schemas/setwarned-schema.js')
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const cache = {}
const setup = require('../../util/setup')
const moderation = require('../../util/moderation')
const index = require('../../index.js')
//const commands = require("./commands");
module.exports = {
commands: ['warn'],
expectedArgs: ['{user ping/user ID} [reason]'],
permissionError: ['you are missing the manage messages permissions'],
minArgs: 1,
maxArgs: null,
permissions: ['MANAGE_MESSAGES'],
requiredRoles: [],

callback: async (message, args, text) => {
const guild = message.guild
let guildID = message.guild.id;
var warnedRoleID = null
warnedRoleID = await setup.getWarnedRoles(guildID)
warnedRoleID = warnedRoleID.toString()
var UserID = args[0]
var member = index.getMention(args[0], message)
var warnReason = args
warnReason.shift()
warnReason = warnReason.toString()
warnReason = warnReason.replace(/,/g, ' ')
if(!member) {
return message.reply('please specify the user that should be warned')
};
if (!warnReason) {
warnReason = 'no reason given'
};
var warnedRole = message.guild.roles.cache.get(warnedRoleID);
var warnedOneHighestRoleID = member.roles.highest.id;
var warningOneHighestRoleID = message.member.roles.highest.id;
if(!warnedRole) {
return message.reply('there is not a role set as the warned role, set it by doing &setwarnedrole (that requires manage server permissions)')
};
//let warnReason = args.join(" ").slice(18);
if(member.id === message.author.id) {
return message.reply('can not allow self-harm')
}
if (message.member.roles.highest.comparePositionTo(member.roles.highest) <= 0) { //warnedOneHighestRoleID === warningOneHighestRoleID
return message.reply('you can not warn a user with the same (or higher) permissions as you')
}
if(!message.member.permissions.has('MANAGE_MESSAGES')){
return message.reply(`you don't have manage messages permissions that are required to execute this command.`);

const logEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()

.setTimestamp()
index.modLog(guildID, logEmbed)
message.reply('this user is already warned!')
return
};
console.log(warnedRole.editable)
if(!warnedRole.editable) {
message.reply(`failed to warn <@${member.id}> as the warned role is above my highest role. Try moving at least one of my roles above other ones`)
return
};
member.roles.add(warnedRoleID)
.then(memberAdded => {
message.reply(`you have succesfully warned <@${member.id}> with the reason **${warnReason}**`);
})
.catch(error => {
//console.log(error);
if(message.member.permissions.has('ADMINISTRATOR')){
message.reply('there is no role set as the warned role. Set it by doing `&setwarnedrole add {role ID}`')
} else message.reply('there is no role set as the warned role. Ask an admin to set it by doing `&setwarnedrole add {role ID}`')
});
const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#FF0000')
.setTitle(`You hev been warned in ${message.guild.name}`)
//.setAuthor(`${userinfoget.user.tag}`, userinfoget.user.displayAvatarURL())
.setDescription(`**Warned by:** <@${message.author.id}>\n**Warn reason:** ${warnReason}`)
.setTimestamp()
member.user.send(embed).catch(error => {
message.channel.send(`Failed to DM <@${member.id}> the info about this action`)
console.log(error)
})
const logEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#FF0000')
.setTitle(`A member has been warned`)
//.setAuthor(`${userinfoget.user.tag}`, userinfoget.user.displayAvatarURL())
.setDescription(`**Warned member:** <@${member.user.id}>\n**Warned by:** <@${message.author.id}>\n**Warn reason:** ${warnReason}`)
.setTimestamp()
index.modLog(guildID, logEmbed)
}
}
Is there a way to check if the role can be added to the user by a bot? Thanks in advance.
