Property assignment expected error on TypeScript

Issue

I have ran into an issue with my Discord bot's audit log system. I am trying to make it have have automatic entries for the bot guilds. It cannot take `` strings with ${guild.id} inside.

Here is my code:

client.guilds.cache.forEach(async (guild: any) => {
            guildPrefs = await guildModel.findOne({ GuildID: guild.id }).catch(err => console.log(err));
            let guildId: string = '';
    
            guildId = `${guild.id}`

            await audit(client, {
                `${guild.id}`: {
                    auditlog: guildPrefs.AuditChannel,
                    auditmsg: guildPrefs.AuditChannel,
                    voice: guildPrefs.AuditChannel,
                    trackroles: true
                }
            });
        })
    })

The audit log system I am using is this one: https://www.npmjs.com/package/discord-auditlog but embedded right into the bot.

This is how it shows on VS Code.

Solution

You can use your template literal string in your object key by using bracket notation. Like this:

    [`${guild.id}`]: {
        auditlog: guildPrefs.AuditChannel,
        auditmsg: guildPrefs.AuditChannel,
        voice: guildPrefs.AuditChannel,
        trackroles: true
    }
