You can lock channel but if someone executes the command again how to send a message back that channel is already locked.



if (command === "lock") 
await message.channel.overwritePermissions(message.guild.defaultRole,
SEND_MESSAGES: false
);
return message.channel.send(`:lock: The channel is now locked..nUse `k!unlock` to end lockdown.. `);

          You can use TextChannel.permissionOverwrites, a Collection with every overwrite:



          let id = message.guild.defaultRole, // get the ID of defaultRole
          ow = message.channel.permissionOverwrites.get(id); // get the permissionOverwrites fro that role

          // If the overwrites exist and SEND_MESSAGES is set to false, then it's already locked
          if (ow && ow.SEND_MESSAGES === false) message.channel.send("The channel is already locked.");
          else // otherwise, lock it
          await message.channel.overwritePermissions(message.guild.defaultRole, SEND_MESSAGES: false , );
          return message.channel.send(`:lock: The channel is now locked..nUse `k!unlock` to end lockdown.. `);
