I'm having a problem with TypeScript compiler that expects a : in 17, 5 but I can't understand why and where to put it, my code:

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



module.exports = {

    name: "ready",

    run: async(client: Client) => {

        client.user.setPresence({

            activities: [{

                name: "Aun en beta!"

            }],

            status: "idle"

        })



        let str = `-- censored --`

        let channel: TextChannel; 

        channel = client.channels.cache.get('-- censored --')?

        channel.send (str)

    }

}

the problem was with a ? as mentioned in the comment.
also you forgot many semicolons in your code that I added.

I edited your hole code and here it is:

if you meant a null check by that ? then you had to place it somewhere else... see this below

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



module.exports = {

    name: "ready",

    run: async (client: Client) => {

        client.user.setPresence({

            activities: [{

                name: "Aun en beta!"

            }],

            status: "idle"

        });



        let str = `-- censored --`;

        let channel: TextChannel;

        channel = client.channels.cache?.get('-- censored --');

//                                     ^^                     ^

        //                                            problem was here

        channel.send(str);

    }

};
