New Stage channels are causing Discord.js to crash on v11.6.4

[icanovi]

Discord bots using Discord.js version 11.6.4 are throwing a "TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined" on line 81 of the ClientDataManager.js file. New Stage channels seems to be the cause of it.

Include a reproducible code sample here, if possible:

1|npm -- run start:node  | /app/discord-bot/node_modules/discord.js/src/client/ClientDataManager.js:81
1|npm -- run start:node  |         guild.channels.set(channel.id, channel);
1|npm -- run start:node  |                                    ^
1|npm -- run start:node  | TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined

Discord v11 is going out of support, this will not get help. Update to v12.

[icanovi]

@papaia We're using node v8.11.2. We can't update to node v12 at the moment. If you confirm there's no other alternative that's ok, I just wanted to confirm that.
Thanks

Update to v12 of discord.js.

[icanovi]

@iShibi v12 of discord.js states that "Node.js 12.0.0 or newer is required." in the readme file.

⚠️ Stage channels will crash version 11 on startup. We are aware of this and will not fix old versions. Please update to version 12 if you want to continue using discord.js.

• Major version updates are prone to breaking changes as per semantic versioning
• We have an extensive guide on updating from version 11 to version 12 at discordjs.guide

I found a fix, for anyone interested.

Step 1) Add GUILD_STAGE_VOICE: 13, to line 291 of node_modules\discord.js\src\util\Constants.js. Step 2) Add

case Constants.ChannelTypes.GUILD_STAGE_VOICE:
    channel = new VoiceChannel(guild, data);
    break;

to line 79 of node_modules\discord.js\src\client\ClientDataManager.js.

This isn't a great workaround, so I'm going to host a modified v11 on my fork of the project that can be referenced for people who need a way around this issue. I'll try to push the changes to v11 of the main repository, but if maintainers don't want to merge you can feel free to use my fork.

Will come back and update once I've pushed the changes.

[almostSouji]

Or you can stop using outdated versions, we no longer support v11 and do not accept pull requests to outdated branches.

[ajmeese7]

Well as long as you refuse to allow selfbots we don't have much of a choice other than using the older versions :)

[iCrawl]

As long as selfbots are against ToS and get people banned, we will continue to refuse them. Good luck.
