import { Client, GatewayIntentBits } from "discord.js";

const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
    GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
  ],
});

discord.py (discord.Intents)

client = discord.Client(intents=intents)

How this value works

Every gateway intent is a single bit (a power of two). The intents you select are combined with a bitwise OR into one integer, which your bot sends when it connects to the gateway. Because the highest assigned bit is well under the safe integer range, the calculation uses a plain number. GUILD_MEMBERS, GUILD_PRESENCES and MESSAGE_CONTENT are privileged and must be enabled separately in the Developer Portal. Bit positions are taken from the official Discord developer documentation.
