How to get userid from username

[Unity123]

I need to get the userid from the username so that my bot can mention a person given by the user.

you can use any other bot or put a code block around the username to cause it not to work and give the user ID

this isnt a lib issue

    function getUserId(bot, serverId, username) {
        const server = bot.servers[serverId];
        const userMatch = Object.values(bot.users).find(user => user.username.toLowerCase() === username.toLowerCase());
        if (userMatch) {
            return userMatch.id;
        }
        const nickMatch = Object.values(server.members).find(member => member.nick && member.nick.toLowerCase() === username.toLowerCase());
        if (nickMatch) {
            return nickMatch.id;
        }
        return null;
    }
