ReferenceError: "bot" is not defined (Eris) - in my commands

I am in the process of creating a Discord bot, and I have gotten pretty far. However, I keep getting this error when I try to connect my bot:

ReferenceError: bot is not defined

My main file's code is here. I have defined the constant variable bot to require the Eris library.

However, when I try to run the code, my command code throws the error mentioned above. I have tried to use multiple versions of module.exports but nothing seems to work. My command's code is located here.

The bot constant will only exist in the main file, so you'll need a way to pass it over to the commands file. You could export a function from the commands file with bot as a parameter

const Permissions = require('eris').Constants.Permissions;

module.exports = function(bot){
    // paste in the rest of the commands code
};

And then run the function in the main file

require('../src/commands/loader')(bot);
