I understand how a discord bot can read a regular user inputed message and respond using

if(message.content.toLowerCase().includes('cyber'))

    message.channel.send("Key Word Detected ");

But it won't read the message if it is an embed. Please help me change that to look for the keyword in a embed message and elicit a response from the bot.

This should be it, checking for all embeds in the message too

if(message.content.toLowerCase().includes('cyber'))

    message.channel.send("Key Word Detected ");

else {

    for(var i = 0; i < message.embeds.length; i++) {

        if(message.embeds[i].title.includes("cyber") || message.embeds[i].title.includes("cyber")) {

            message.channel.send("Detected");

            break;

    }

}

The text in a MessageEmbed can be in author, description, footer, message.content and title. They can also be inside every filed, so might want to check for all that stuff.

Here's a little function you could use (I know it seems a mess but it's just because there are a lot of logical operators):

/*

      message {Discord.Message}: the message you want to search in

      target {string}: the string you're looking for

      {

        caseSensitive {boolean}: whether you want the search to be case case-sensitive

        author {boolean}: whether you want to search in the author's name

        description {boolean}: whether you want to search in the description

        footer {boolean}: whether you want to search in the footer

        title {boolean}: whether you want to search in the title

        fields {boolean}: whether you want to search in the fields

      }

     */

function findInMessage(message, target, {

  caseSensitive = false,

  author = false,

  description = true,

  footer = true,

  title = true,

  fields = true

}) {

  if (!target || !message) return null;

  let str = caseSensitive ? target : target.toLowerCase();



  if ((caseSensitive && message.content.includes(str)) ||

    (!caseSensitive && message.content.toLowerCase().includes(str))) return true;



  for (let embed of message.embeds) {

    if ((caseSensitive && (

        (author && embed.author.includes(str)) ||

        (description && embed.description.includes(str)) ||

        (footer && embed.footer.includes(str)) ||

        (title && embed.title.includes(str)))) ||

      (!caseSensitive && (

        (author && embed.author.toLowerCase().includes(str)) ||

        (description && embed.description.toLowerCase().includes(str)) ||

        (footer && embed.footer.toLowerCase().includes(str)) ||

        (title && embed.title.toLowerCase().includes(str))))

    ) return true;



    if (fields)

      for (let field of embed.fields) {

        if ((caseSensitive && [field.name, field.value].includes(str)) ||

          (!caseSensitive && [field.name.toLowerCase(), field.value.toLowerCase()].includes(str))) return true;

      }

  }



  return false;

}

The functions returns true when finds the word you put in, false when it doesn't find it and null when one of the non-optional arguments is missing.

You can use it like this:

if (findInMessage(message, 'cyber')) message.channel.send("Key word detected.");

There are some instructions at the top, hope this helps ;)
