Error: Cannot find module './commands/${file}'

So I'm currently making a Discord bot and when I tried to turn it on, the console showed this error and it didn't turn on.

Error: Cannot find module './commands/${file}'
Require stack:

/home/runner/TerraBot/index.js
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:965:15)

at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:985:32)
at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:878:14)

And I don't really know how to fix this.
Can someone help me, please?

Hi @Hplr63 I saw your repl and your bot's token is in it. Repls are public and anyone can view it. I would suggest you to go to https://docs.repl.it/repls/secret-keys and hide your token. And regenerate it or anyone can use it.

@Zapdos Thanks a lot! I noticed it after posting it and decided to hide it in an .env file!

@Hplr63 shouldn't the command be

`./commands/${file}`

instead of './commands/${file}'

@KHZ so that the name of the file changes every time the loop executes. Right now the name of the file remains ${file} and it is not getting formatted as to format a string instead of commas ' back ticks(`) should be used .

@KHZ lemme try that. I'll give you an update
Update: It worked! Thanks for answering!
I'm a total newbie when it comes to Discord.js

@Hplr63 No worries I don't know js that much myself.
