I have a discord bot and I've recently implemented a currency system, however, I keep getting this 'UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning
' warning in my console every time someone says a message.
I've tried using catch, but that doesn't seem to work.
Here's the full error:

When using methods that return promises, you can't always assume that everything's going to work perfectly. Sometimes, something can fail, and the result will be a rejected promise. When left unhandled, an unhandledPromiseRejectionWarning
is emitted, as you've encountered.
From the error, it looks like something in a sequelize
query is going wrong, specifically with validation.
Always make sure you're properly handling any possibilities of rejection. Use try...catch
statements or catch()
methods.
Examples:
try {
const items = await CurrencyShop.findAll();
message.channel.send(...);
} catch(err) { // Even if only one promise is rejected,
console.error(err); // the code inside the 'catch' is still
} // executed.
message.channel.send('hi there')
.catch(err => console.error(err));
