Can I create a channel at bot on startup?

I'm trying to create a channel with Discord.js using the message.guild.createChannel function. But, I need to send a message on the server for the bot to do that. How can I do it at the bot startup ? I think I need to implement my code into the bot.on('ready', () => { function, but I don't know how. Thanks !

This is my code:

var firstLog = false;

bot.on('message', msg => {
  if (!firstLog) {
    msg.guild.createChannel('raidprotect-logs', "text")
  } firstLog = true;
});

You need use somethink like this if you want use it on message

var firstLog = false;

bot.on('message', msg => {
  if (!firstLog) msg.guild.createChannel('new-general', { type: 'text' })
firstLog = true;
});

If you want you use it when bot start , you need get guild fist.

bot.on('ready', () => {
    let myGuild = bot.guilds.get('GUILDID HERE')
   myGuild.createChannel('new-general', { type: 'text' })
        .then(console.log(“done”))
        .catch(console.error);
});

You're almost there. Here's how you do it 

    bot.on('ready', () => {
     guild.createChannel('new-general', { type: 'text' })
  .then(console.log)
  .catch(console.error);
    });

As they suggested here
