[cyan pendant]

I fixed it with the help of AI, I fed it 3 examples of voice related snippets, im learnin a lot from this thing

DAWG dont judge me, I needa figure out something Ive never tried figuring out before, if this could be done via python I wouldve just done it like that

I just need to fix like one or two things and this should work

[green vessel]

can someone help me understand what dispatch method of FluxDispatcher does

im still learning the Flux Pattern

[cyan pendant]

Ok It doesnt show errors in the vccodes but when I run it on my client its not actually doing what i need it to do

anyone know how I can look for errors concerning the plugin

(I mean the one im creating)

[vast karma]

Devtools

[cyan pendant]

do I just filter errors

[vast karma]

Or search your plugin name, or just scroll

[cyan pendant]

its just not showing errors at all though

even if I dont search its just showin stuff unrelated

[green vessel]

how can i find out what a flux action takes as arguments

for example js FluxDispatcher.dispatch({ type: "GUILD_JOIN", // ????? })

[vast karma]

Check how discord uses it

[brittle apex]

It says "DevCompanion is only for the developer version" and I did ran "C:\Users\user\Documents\Vencord>pnpm build --dev" + my custom plugins arn't working

UHHHHHHHHHHHHH

OMG I FIXED ITTT

[brittle apex]

how do I add options to the ChannelAttachButton thingi

?

[flint bronze]

Look at the VoiceMessages plugin

[brittle apex]

I tried to but it's to complicated

[brittle apex]

do u know how do I insert text into that text box thingi?

[brittle apex]

tf is that message

[flint bronze]

it means "DO NOT INSTALL RANDOM STUFF INTO YOUR CLIENT AND BLAME IT ON THE MAINTAINERS"

[green vessel]

Real

[halcyon moat]

Is it possible to run a command via some api?

I want to be able to right click a channel click a button then have it run a command.

[flint bronze]

Is it possible? Yes
Has the idea been thought of before? Yes
Has anyone committed to doing this before? I don't actually know?

[halcyon moat]

Time to spend hours trying to do something that's "dumb" and has no real "reason" 🙏

[flint bronze]

you might want to consider setting a breakpoint on command xhr/fetch calls and working through the call stack to find a send command function or something like that

[halcyon moat]

👍 💜

[flint bronze]

if that doesnt end well just use RestAPI and send the API request yourself (look for existing examples in other Vencord plugins that use RestAPI) do note the pending command might not appear if you do click into the channel

[brittle apex]

Btw someone knows how do I insert text to the textbox?

[brittle apex]

?

[small lily]

Hello I am new to vencord plugin development and I would like some guideance on how to achieve this:

Problem:

When I block users, they are not muted in voice channels -> If I block a person and he is in another voiceChannel/in no voiceChannel at all, I do not see a "muted" symbol on them / as soon as they join a voiceChannel.
I have had this problem now multiple times on public servers where I hang out a lot and it frustrates me.

Solution:

I want to create a muteBlockedUsers plugin with a toggle, which automatically mutes blocked users for you.

I want the plugin to work like this:
If the toggle is set to "ON", then all blocked and future blocked users get automatically muted.
If the toggle is set to "OFF", then the user can right-click any blocked user in the "Friends > Blocked" tab and mute them manually.

I already followed everything on https://docs.vencord.dev/plugins/ and the last thing I did after adding my name in the Devs object was to save the file to automatically format it.

This is my current index.ts file: https://sourceb.in/vi6Jnux6Yx

[brittle apex]

const file = await chooseFile("/");

if (file) {
    const filePath = file.path || "File path is not available";
   // Why filePath is undefine???? 
}
return null;

Can someone help me with this?

[hushed loom]

Look how other plugins get files

Voice messages for one

[brittle apex]

I tried

but this line:
const Native = VencordNative.pluginHelpers.VoiceMessages as PluginNative<typeof import("./native")>;
isn't working on my code to export from the native

[brittle apex]

u know why?

I FIXED IT

OMG IT FEELS SO GOOD

[brittle apex]

yo guys can someone please tell me is there anyway to add a custom svg? insted of using "@components/Icons"

[vast karma]

Check what dozens of other plugins are doing

Translate, toolbox, preview, and silent typing are a few that come to mind

[brittle apex]

thanks man

[brittle apex]

I FINISHED MAKING THE PLUGIN

OMG IT TOOK FOREVERRR

[brittle apex]

can someone please help me how to make a function that mutes somone on the vc by id?

[rose fiber]

look at the onclick of the context menu button in react devtools

[brittle apex]

how?

[rose fiber]

how what?

enable react devtools in vencord settings (or install it as an extension if on web) and look at it

there's an example in the pins

[brittle apex]

how tf do I open this tool?

[brittle apex]

?

[brittle apex]

toggleLocalMute(e) {
let t = arguments.length > 1 && void 0 !== arguments[1] ? arguments[1] : f.Yn.DEFAULT;
!T() && r.Z.dispatch({
type: "AUDIO_TOGGLE_LOCAL_MUTE",
context: t,
userId: e
})
},

tf am doing with it?

[rose fiber]

findByProps("toggleLocalMute").toggleLocalMute(userId)

[brittle apex]

OHHHH

thanks

Well now the final thing.

how do I get all of the people in the call?

[brittle apex]

is there any way to set it insted of flipping it?

[rose fiber]

check it's value and toggle when it's not at the value you want

[brittle apex]

how do I chack for it?

[rose fiber]

ok so

first of all ctrl shift f and look for the handler for that flux event

this one

now find that module by typing wreq(345953) in your devtools console

then, go to that function

now we have a nicely named function

[brittle apex]

findByProps("isLocalMute").toggleLocalMute(userId)?

findByProps("isLocalMute").isLocalMute(userId)?

[rose fiber]

those 2 functions arent in the same module

[brittle apex]

so how do I refrence it in my script?

[rose fiber]

const { toggleLocalMute } = findByProps("toggleLocalMute");
const { isLocalMute } = findByProps("isLocalMute");

[brittle apex]

Thanks

const { toggleLocalMute } = findByProps("toggleLocalMute");
const { isLocalMute } = findByProps("isLocalMute");
if (isLocalMute === false){
toggleLocalMute(userId).toggleLocalMute(userId)
}
right?

[brittle apex]

like how I typed right?

cuz it's kinda not working

maby it's like

const { toggleLocalMute } = findByProps("toggleLocalMute");
const { isLocalMute } = findByProps("isLocalMute");
if (isLocalMute(userId) === false){
toggleLocalMute(userId).toggleLocalMute(userId)
}

nuh that's just crashing my discord

[rose fiber]

The {} is destructuring

replace toggleLocalMute.toggleLocalMute with toggleLocalMute

[brittle apex]

so like toggleLocalMute(userId?)

[rose fiber]

yup

[brittle apex]

and the isLocalMute is just fine?

thanks man ur the best

can I add u to my friends please @rose fiber ?

also i've used this line:
patches: [{
find: "renderConnectionStatus(){",
replacement: {
match: /(?<=renderConnectionStatus(){.+.channel,children:)\i/,
replace: "[$&, $self.alertChannelId(this.props.channel.id)]"
}
and it works and all but the only problem is that if ur also using the call timer plugin because the plugins from the plugins folder are starting first it cannot find the function so it's not working

is there anything I can do to prevent it?

[cedar olive]

you need to use findByPropsLazy

[small lily]

Any why that?

[small lily]

Anyways
How would I find the patch to see when a user gets blocked / unblocked?
This is my code so far: https://sourceb.in/lLDaS56yWP

[cyan pendant]

I cant figure out the issue with my plugin can I just post the full source here or no

[cyan pendant]

ill take this as a yes sigma I can

This is the source of my plugin that I cant figure out what the flip is wrong with it

its suppose to auto local deafen when I am server muted and auto local mute when I am server deafened, to combat admin abuse in voice chats, when debating or conversating

[vast karma]

Using a timer like that is one thing that's wrong, at least

And returning a function from start, that's not how you do it (but maybe it should be)

[cyan pendant]

ok thanks you

when I want to diagnose the steps of my code I put console.log("HI this happened") but where do I look to find hi this happened, it wont show in the console (ctrl shift I)

[cedar olive]

that's interest yes

[cedar olive]

it should

then that code is not running due to something in your code

```js
const VoiceStateStore = findStoreLazy("VoiceStateStore");
const userStore = UserStore;

no need to re-assign UserStore to userStore, just use UserStore directly

remove these

  if (!VoiceStateStore || !userStore) {
    console.log("VoiceStateStore or UserStore is not initialized");
    return false;
  }

they don't work how you would expect because the return of lazy functions (and UserStore) are never nullish

[cyan pendant]

oh ok

thank you, I think I figured it out let me test it

[cyan pendant]

For some reason still not reacting to the server mute

[vast karma]

Where do you expect it to react to anything

It checks when the plugin is started, that's it

[cyan pendant]

IM SUCH A GOOF BALL

[cyan pendant]

this

its suppose to automate local deafening when server muted

and local muting when server deafened

and undo those things when the servermute/deafen is undone as well

[vast karma]

You'll probably want to subscribe to the VoiceStateStore to find when it changes

[cyan pendant]

how do I do that...

[vast karma]

Well, there's an addChangeListener method so maybe use that?

[cyan pendant]

sigma, thank you

[cyan pendant]

ok yeah im lost still bro im adding several credits by the end of this

also not until like 9 am today I wasnt using dev companion 😭

This whole time I manually rebuilt and reinjected LOL

[vast karma]

Just pnpm watch

[cyan pendant]

But now that I got dev companion is really useful much love for it

[vast karma]

Reinjecting is unnecessary

[cyan pendant]

yeah I know I did that

I didnt know about it earlier though before today

[cyan pendant]

so I tried console.log thingy to see if stuffs being called but it doesnt seem to be should I be usint a print statement instead or

does that even work in typescript

nvm looked it up

[vast karma]

print() opens a printer dialog

[cyan pendant]

oh

[vast karma]

Which is very funny

[small lily]

So I really don't like to ping people but I really want some help cause its my first plugin and there are no docs on how to do stuff.
So I am sorry in advance for future pings but could any1 help me out by chance?

How do I know when a user blocks / unblocks someone?
This is my code so far: https://sourceb.in/lLDaS56yWP

[cyan pendant]

Hey I think we are trying to make something similiar

your code checks to see if a user is blocked and automutes them locally right?

if I am reading that code correctly

[small lily]

Yes cause blocking a user on discord only restrains them from messaging you etc. but for voicechat nothing happens

[cyan pendant]

you sigma

Im trying to do something similiar on voice state changes though

[small lily]

xd nice

[cyan pendant]

so like if I am server muted ill auto deafen myself locally and if Im server deafened ill auto mute myself locally

[small lily]

ok

[cyan pendant]

if you use vscode you can ask codeium for a bit of advice /help (it can be off a lot especially for something this specific (I mean it being a vencord plugin))

I asked it how I could check if a user is blocked and it gave this example code block, try this if you want

import { RelationshipStore } from "@webpack/common";

const relationshipStore = RelationshipStore.getStore();

function isBlocked(userId: string) {
  const relationship = relationshipStore.getRelationship(userId);
  return relationship?.type === "BLOCKED";
}

[small lily]

well that tells me if a user is currently blocked, but how do I know when a new block/unblock happens

cause this checks also for blocked people
Object.entries(RelationshipStore.getRelationships()).filter(([k, v]) => v === 2).map(([k]) => UserStore.getUser(k).id);

[cyan pendant]

ok just use that

I think the code block it gave is trashy uhm give me a min

ok yeah im not sure on that part

Bro theres like no documentation I cant help my bad LOL

If anyone can help me and this dude

[small lily]

haha i also hate the fact no docs are available

[azure fossil]

how would i do smth like this now ?
i've looked in the update commit but no official plugins seems to have been using getLocale unless i'm F blind and i can't find it
i18n?.getLocale?.() ?? "en-US"

[cedar olive]

i18n.intl.currentLocale

[azure fossil]

tyvm

idk but the currentLocale wasn't showing in the hints

[hushed loom]

i18n hasnt been typed yet

go to console and just read the values from there

[azure fossil]

ic

so all of this come from the types

[small lily]

how can I detect if a user block/unblock happens

[hushed loom]

flux events

[small lily]

ok thanks finally an aswer <3

[small lily]

so this is what I found out in chrome f12 when clicking on blocking a user:

onConfirm: () => {
null == p || p(),
o.Z.addRelationship({
userId: E,
context: {
location: g
},
type: _.OGo.BLOCKED
})
}

with that how do I block a user in my plugin?

this is my code so far and it works for the mute part https://sourceb.in/dfysF4K2EF

[fathom pivot]

@hushed loom, <t:1730247495:R>: …

[dull magnet]

by using exactly that code

addRelationship is an exported function, use findByProps to find it

for the other values, put a breakpoint and trigger it to see what they are

[fathom pivot]

@hushed loom, <t:1730249336:R>: …

[cyan pendant]

bump

im lost

[empty echo]

where can i find the module that contains the main flux dispatcher? before some update it was Vencord.Webpack.findByProps("DispatchBand", "default"), but that doesn't work anymore...

i basically want to run some function whenever a message is received in a specific channel

[flint bronze]

It's already found for you

You can just import FluxDispatcher

However for what you are trying to do, you might want to use the flux object of event handlers in your plugin object rather than registering manually

[empty echo]

oh nice ok thanks

[halcyon moat]

There might be a better place to put this but i'm placing it here.

When using the User type from discord-types/general it's missing a bunch of data. When I console.log user it has soo much more and there is missing stuff that "should" be clear and "should" be added be default.

Stuff like clan, banner, globalName and most likely more.

Is there a way to get the package updated to support new data so I can stop getting errors or should I be importing User from a different package?

[halcyon moat]

I spent some time looking into this. The package we are using is not just out of date but is also abandoned. Would it not be better to use something like discord-api-types from discord.js

Using discord-api-types would mean going to be more up to date and will stay around for "sometime" considering it's made by the same people who made discord.js.

I'm willing to look more into this and maybe make a pr with a swap over but I'm wanting to know if i'm missing something first before putting my time and effort into this.

[dull magnet]

discord api types is incredibly different from what the data structures you're working with are

[halcyon moat]

Is that because we are parsing it in some way and not just using the raw API data?

[hushed loom]

Discord-api-types is for the official api that bots use

Vencord is a unofficial client mod

There is a pr somewhere to migrate to our own types for discord, but that has been lost in the weeds for a while

[halcyon moat]

Do we not use the?
When looking at dev tools (network) and clicking on someones profile it sends and API request to discord's api (v9) and the data and it's the same as the data being shown in the docs of discord-api-types

[halcyon moat]

I get that but there shouldn't be no reason why the data we get isn't the same as the data from the API.

[halcyon moat]

Link pr if you know where it is

[hushed loom]

The data is very much not the same

[halcyon moat]

Does that not seam dumb? What's the point in changing the data?

[vast karma]

discord-types describes api responses, which are json. Discord itself, and thus vencord, uses actual data objects, with methods and shit

Plus, api responses are stable, while internal objects can be changed whenever an employee feele sufficiently bored

[dull magnet]

because working with pure json data that doesn't even follow Javascript naming conventions is not very comfortable

Discord has classes for most data structures and deserialise the json elements into an instance of those classes

these classes have useful helper methods and camelCase names, thus their structure differs vehemently from the api types

[rocky lynx]

I figured it out. I did this instead of just using sendMessage and uploadFiles because I thought it would be easier.

FluxDispatcher.dispatch({
    type: "SLOWMODE_SET_COOLDOWN",
    channelId,
    slowmodeType: 0,
    cooldownMs
});

[small lily]

like for knowing when a user is blocked/unblocked, I can add a "addChangeListener()" to the RelationshipStore

How would I do it when I get server muted/deafened?

[rose fiber]

flux events

[small lily]

And what flux events do exist?

is it like normal discord events?

[vast karma]

Define "normal discord events"

[rose fiber]

^

[small lily]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/events/gateway#commands-and-events-gateway-events

like for example

MESSAGE_REACTION_ADD
MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVE
MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVE_ALL
MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVE_EMOJI

[halcyon moat]

is there a list of of contextMenus somewhere?

[dull magnet]

no

open the menu you want and use inspect elements to get the menu id

[rose fiber]

not the same but similar

flux events arent documented anywhere

youll have to look in discord's code for (something).dispatch({ type: fluxEventYoureLookingFor, whatever: "something" })

[small lily]

how did all the plugin creators who use flux then get their flux event?

[rose fiber]

i literally said it

you have to look at discord's code

[small lily]

Can I implement features to existing plugins? Or is that not allowed and I need to create a new plugin for that?

[hushed loom]

both are fine

[small lily]

cause idk what to do with my plugin. I get told that it "adds" a feature to an existing plugin but I cannot find an existing plugin which does that.
Its about muting blocked people for voicechat automatically etc.

[hushed loom]

noblockedusers

[small lily]

there is no plugin named like that

there is one called noblockedmessages

[hushed loom]

yea
that one

[small lily]

what would you do if you were to be me?
Add as new plugin or add as feature and maybe rename to noBlockedUsers the whole plugin

[hushed loom]

avoid renaming imo

id prob make a new one

[small lily]

so what now

[hushed loom]

in the end, it doesnt matter

maintainers will decide if it goes in its own or in an existing plugin

[small lily]

hmm if you say so..

thanks btw

[dull magnet]

why?

[iron knoll]

Hey I am trying to make a plugin to hook the file upload function if its above the upload limit upload it to catbox and send that as a link is there any way to hook that function?

[humble tulip]

Wouldn't it disable the plugin and reset users' settings?

There's only one setting on that plugin but still

[vast karma]

You guys ever notice that the forward menu explicitly omits the current channel

[swift delta]

You can import settings from other plug-ins just import from what that plug-in used to be named

[humble tulip]

Ah

[swift delta]

for example…
migratePluginSettings("AlwaysExpandRoles", "ShowAllRoles");

[vast karma]

And the search function sucks, prioritizing users you've never interacted with

[humble tulip]

That's cool, didn't know that was a thing. I'd thought in the past it'd be useful for plugins to have an unchanging ID and a separate display name to avoid things like that

[swift delta]

https://github.com/Vendicated/Vencord/pull/2170

[small lily]

Aha thanks

[swift delta]

prolly really doesn’t matter, but just thought you’d like to know

[hushed loom]

wasnt aware of the migratepluginsettings

[swift delta]

[thick sparrow]

daily reminder to update pnpm

[thick sparrow]

is it even possible to enable/disable vencord plugins through the toolbox

?

[vast karma]

You can put just about anything in the toolbox

[flint bronze]

Wrong

The toolbox does not work like context menu API

You can put buttons

but thats about it

[vast karma]

Buttons that can do anything

[flint bronze]

if you want more menu options then you'll have to edit the code

[flint bronze]

true

[thick sparrow]

i meant the actions

where is the vencord docs

i gotta figure shit through inspect element console

[flint bronze]

the docs are mostly just typescript types

[thick sparrow]

Vencord.Plugins.plugins.SigmaLanguage.start

[flint bronze]

look at how DevCompanion does it

[hushed loom]

Just add a context menu patch for vencord-toolbox

[thick sparrow]

i dont have it yet i have a devbuild lmao

[hushed loom]

They’re talking about the plugin

[thick sparrow]

how am i supposed to see how it works

i have a dev version yet it still says its only for dev versions

[hushed loom]

Read the code

Go to src/plugins/devcompanion.dev

And read

[thick sparrow]

wait so nobody

can use it

?

just saw

also im slow if u disable the plugin it disappears from toolbox

[vast karma]

Yes, disabling a plugin disables all parts of it

[craggy latch]

I'm unable to find the vencord settings, im on a dev branch because of my custom plugin (it is not causing this)

It was working literally until a few mins ago when I updated discord

Vencord seems to be getting injected (I see the features from other plugins on), it's just the settings are missing

[oak sundial]

We don't provide support for devinstalls at all, even in this channel

this is a problem with your dev install, not vencord, not dev installs as a whole, not the plugin lib

[craggy latch]

I did not touch anything tho

Also if i build without --dev does it count as dev install

[oak sundial]

Buliding from source is not supported, stop asking

[craggy latch]

Ah okay, sorry

How can I submit my plugin to be added into offical plugins then?

It's just "sortFriendList"

[oak sundial]

you would open a PR for it

[craggy latch]

Okay, thank you very much

Done, thank you

[humble tulip]

@flint bronze https://github.com/lolsuffocate/vc-incognitoLinks

[flint bronze]

[humble tulip]

I'm aware the custom path option is dangerous as-is but that's a later problem

[humble tulip]

I need to make a plugin that tells me I'm a dumbass when I only ctrl+r reload after changing a native.ts file instead of fully restarting discord

[unkempt dove]

is there an easy way to reference or get a variable using a regex earlier in the module?

for example, one of my patch replacements needs a minified variable earlier in the referenced module, and i'm not sure how to get it

[cedar olive]

yes

lookbehind after your match

/match(?<=channel:(\i).+?)/

for example

[humble tulip]

I don't wanna make all my plugins about embeds and links lol
But what if I made a plugin that previews embeds as you type links in the chat box, kinda like how whatsapp or messenger previews them

[gloomy terrace]

Would be fire ngl

[steady knot]

I am once again hoping someone can take over [this plugin](https://github.com/Vencord/plugin-requests/issues/1#issuecomment-1957949593)
update yesterday broke the patch and I have no idea how to fix it, I can't make any sense of that part

[humble tulip]

Change the find to "#{intl::MESSAGE_EDITED_TIMESTAMP_A11Y_LABEL}" to fix what the update broke

[steady knot]

oh?

oh shit it works 🥰

[cedar olive]

[humble tulip]

So are we expecting the existing keys to always correspond to their existing hashes?

And then new keys we just won't know what the original key was to get the hash

[cedar olive]

hash is calculated at runtime so yes

existing keys will match their hash

and new keys we wont know unless we guess

some have been guessed already

[humble tulip]

Sorry by always I meant going forward but I guess there's no way we'd know that lol

[cedar olive]

yeah

we should just use hash now

but primarily avoid message keys as finds

[humble tulip]

Got it

[cedar olive]

since they aren't as reliable anymore

(or maybe they are)

[humble tulip]

This is cool btw, was a bit confusing at first glance though

[steady knot]

yeah a former vencordian made the patch and had hardcoded the formats, I added options to it with some help from chatgpt because I don't know any js/ts but I got most of it

[azure fossil]

What is very funny is discord is kinda adding that
There is an experiment to make discord use system formatting or system formatting but locked on 24h mode

[steady knot]

really?

[azure fossil]

I forgot the name of the experiment but i think you can find it by searching for time

[azure fossil]

Yep this

[humble tulip]

I'm surprised that didn't break the patch tbf

[azure fossil]

I found it today when looking into discord hashing stuff

I was looking for stuff in the js and randomly found that

[steady knot]

oh yeah it adds this under appearance, pretty cool

[azure fossil]

I wish i just had boxes to specify the format strings :w:
"hh:mm:ss.sss - dd/MM/yyyy" as long form detailed precise time big w

But alr better than nothing to be able to use system api for date time

[humble tulip]

Specific format strings is exactly what the plugin is

[steady knot]

yeah

I know the settings aren't intuitive, just using the moment.js format names

[vast karma]

Should include an example timestamp using the confugured formats

[green vessel]

anyway to develop plugins faster than rebuilding & injecting and restarting discord?

[cedar olive]

pnpm watch and no need to inject again

F5 in devtools to reload faster

[green vessel]

thanks man

[hushed loom]

ctrl+r >>

[cedar olive]

F5 is faster

[sullen ermine]

Hello! Does anyone know an alternative to usedrag and usedrop that used to be in @webpack/common ?
I want to update the channeltab plugin (for I18-n) that was created by sunnniee but im not even sure they'll update it anymore

[steady knot]

I mean it has defaults as the example as well as a link to the documentation

[green vessel]

any possible way to use NavigationRouter in native.ts?

[hushed loom]

just tested and the exact same

[azure fossil]

Oh alr goog

[azure fossil]

they seem about right

[lucid girder]

How to make an button next to your microphone button?

[humble tulip]

Is there a way to use setValues in a custom settings component without it rerendering the entire thing?

It seems like the only way to actually save values when the user clicks save and close (rather than editing settings immediately as the value changes) but it makes it impossible to type because you lose focus after every letter

[vast karma]

Are settings components not like, regular components?

Which you can useState() and the like in

Or do you mean that you want the setting to save instantly, unlike every other setting which only save when you press save?

[humble tulip]

When you use the setValue function passed in the props of the custom component it sets the values to be saved when you click save & close, but doing so also tells something further up the chain to rerender the whole settings component as far as I can see

So you have to have it save the new value instantly as you type because if you call setValue after every letter typed it keeps rerendering the modal and the input you're typing in loses focus before you can type the next letter

Basically my point is just that trying to use this function

Causes this

But I could very well just be stupid

[vast karma]

Considering the regular SettingTextComponent works, you're probably doing something fishy

[humble tulip]

I'll look into it more, I probably am just being dumb

[vast karma]

Oh, and have you considered having a selector where you can choose presets corresponding to each available momentjs locale?

[humble tulip]

Figured it out, it was because I was defining the Row component inside the custom settings component, thanks for the sanity check

[tropic ice]

why doesnt that show up in the file? is it some variable that vencord does something special with?

[cedar olive]

yes

run canonicalizeMatch with that to see

[tropic ice]

ah cool
where do you get that variable from

[hushed loom]

old i18n keys

they're hashed now

so you cant get new ones

[tropic ice]

internationalization keys?

[hushed loom]

yea

[tropic ice]

how do you find them?

[hushed loom]

thats the fun part

you dont

#👾-core-development message

thats all the known ones

[tropic ice]

do those hashes not reroll?

[flint bronze]

They're hashes of the old keys so no

[dull magnet]

it's a hash

it's constant

[tropic ice]

oh yeah hash

what are the random chars in class names called

[flint bronze]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I dont know

[dull magnet]

do u mean these one letter names

[flint bronze]

no

the class name modules

these kinda things

i think is what @tropic ice is talking about

[tropic ice]

yeah these

didn't know that existed though

[flint bronze]

they all have the same suffix for each webpack module

[dull magnet]

this is a randomly generated suffix based on the file

they are also semi constant

[flint bronze]

yeah you generally just find the webpack module, find a set of unique keys on them and use findByProps

[dull magnet]

they only change if discord changes their css

[tropic ice]

yeah
i'm mostly a css person, so that's how ik of them

[flint bronze]

WARNING WARNING WARNING

These modules are not always loaded, they can be lazy loaded just like any other module

[flint bronze]

one day you will make an advanced plugger and find this out and feel pain

[tropic ice]

so just completely (pseudo)random every time discord changes css?
not generated from a hash or something?

[flint bronze]

Someone could try to make a hash from it idk

It's probably just random

[green vessel]

Okay so I have an object defined inside native.ts and I want to add RouteNavigator to a key what can I do I’m confused?

For example

[hushed loom]

why do you have a native.ts

what is your end goal

[green vessel]

I’m using electron touchbar API

[hushed loom]

alr, i have no idea what that is, sorry

[green vessel]

And im trying to set give a callback to a touchbar object which will use RouteNavigator

[green vessel]

It’s ok do you know how I could use RouteNavigator inside native though?

[hushed loom]

idk what routenavigator is

couldnt find any mentions of it in vencords codebase

[green vessel]

It switches to server with passed server id

[hushed loom]

you mean navigation router

[green vessel]

Yes my bad Lol

[hushed loom]

its all good

[green vessel]

I’m so tired

Do you have any idea how I could do that?

[hushed loom]

tbh you would prob want to look at electrons docs

dont know much, but these seem to be of note

[green vessel]

Kk I’ll take a look thank u

[steady knot]

very cool 👍

[quaint cipher]

is there somewhere a list of known intl message keys

update: i found from the apk

[hushed loom]

which patch is better

{
    find: "peopleListItemRef",
    replacement: {
        match: /(?<=subText:).+?\}\)(?<=user:(\i).{0,100})/,
        replace: "$self.makeSubtext($1, $&)"
    }
}

        {
            find: "peopleListItemRef",
            replacement: {
                predicate: () => settings.store.showDates,
                match: /(?<=children:.*user:(\i),.*subText:).+?(?=,hovered:\i,showAccountIdentifier)/,
                replace: "$self.makeSubtext($1, $&)"
            }
        }

[humble tulip]

Probably the first lol, I just threw the second one together without much thought into making it good

[hushed loom]

@craggy latch fixed the bad logic in your plugin

[vast karma]

By rm -rf?

[hushed loom]

huh

not talking about the patch

the plugin just didnt work

[humble tulip]

I gotta remember to ping on reply more #👾-core-development message

[green vessel]

any possible way to use invoke webpack functions from native.ts?

[dull magnet]

look at other plugins

[green vessel]

So its possible

[flint bronze]

yes it is possible #🧩-plugin-development message

call a native function in your plugins' start function and save the webContents from the ipcmaininvokeevent

[inner pawn]

I have a button patch working now, but I am not sure how I would add a modal callback to that

[flint bronze]

I need advice.

I have a few closely related ideas for plugins.
1: Events calendar in app, in DM sidebar near friends/shop/nitro/library/etc and replacing the events button in servers
2: Automatically exporting all events to a file with a native script
3: Fixing Discord's existing "Download ICS file" button to add more (better) metadata to the file

@hushed loom @hoary pilot can you help me decide

I intend to PR this shit eventually

[hushed loom]

events in discord are so useful

[flint bronze]

[inner pawn]

probaly seperate

[flint bronze]

I have acknowleged that a "events from every server" option is a shitty idea

[inner pawn]

2 and 3 might work goood together

1 seperatetly

[flint bronze]

hmm

I don't really want to duplicate logic in multiple plugins

[flint bronze]

Kevin Fortnite Cube (64kbps)

[inner pawn]

actually this is one with different settings might work

[flint bronze]

to start

I will build a definitive "Route API"

[rocky lynx]

i forgot about being able to import css files and just did an animation with css using dom manipulation

[flint bronze]

Wait until you find out about the managed CSS API for cases where you do changes outside of your plugin

[green vessel]

So I can use NavigationRouter with my native .ts this way?

[flint bronze]

yes

Do not rely upon ConsoleShortcuts being enabled

How much do we wanna bet old route API stuff still works

[rocky lynx]

i made a plugin that adds a button to send a random picture of my cat gary. left click sends as an embed right click sends as attachment.

[hushed loom]

minkyapi

@remote kestrel

[weak haven]

Make a pr

[flint bronze]

too niche this is suited as a userplugin though

[flint bronze]

@remote kestrel give minky pics button plugger

we need

[swift delta]

use the Api venbotto uses

[flint bronze]

vmink

[swift delta]

https://codeberg.org/vee/bot/src/branch/main/src/commands/misc/mink.ts

[weak haven]

Sighs

We love cats tho 😔

[unkempt kindle]

how'd you make the animation?

[craggy latch]

I see you didn't submit it, mind sending it over so i can use the fixed version?

[hushed loom]

check github

[rocky lynx]

css

[rocky lynx]

Yeah, i had no plans to make a pr. I might submit it to #1256395889354997771 when i am happy with the code

[green vessel]

Need

[rocky lynx]

I have the source at https://github.com/Zach11111/randomGary
Still need to make a readme though

[rocky lynx]

I will add a settng for the image source and more sources

[flint bronze]

we need better minky api

@granite wharf when will you add endpoints to minky api to get each image, to list all images, etc

[hushed loom]

@granite wharf you will zip and send all the images of minky to me

[flint bronze]

i need it as well

i think i have a 3GB archive of minky pics from @safe glade already though

[hushed loom]

i will scrape all minky channels

[granite wharf]

uuuuuuh

dunno

[flint bronze]

should I make

[hushed loom]

@granite wharf send me the minkers

[granite wharf]

pr
Materiiapps/minky-api

[flint bronze]

i know

[flint bronze]

yop

[granite wharf]

i dont have time to do myself

[flint bronze]

bruh

can we have downloadable archive of the minker pics

[granite wharf]

nop

drip feeding minky pics

vmink

[hushed loom]

@remote kestrel can you send me the minky pics

[hushed loom]

how many do you have

[flint bronze]

i will PR endpoint to list all minky pics then

[remote kestrel]

who ping

[granite wharf]

3.3gb
i havent updated since may

[remote kestrel]

updatee

[flint bronze]

ADD MORE 😭

[remote kestrel]

thjeres been at least 300

[flint bronze]

300 MINKY PICTURES?

[remote kestrel]

yes

[rocky lynx]

I have over 500 of gary

[flint bronze]

you can iterate that api though

@rocky lynx I am downloading every gary photo right now.

[rocky lynx]

[flint bronze]

are there supposed to be duplicates

no

[rocky lynx]

Yeah

[flint bronze]

they're just very similar photos

[rocky lynx]

I got better about not putting too similar pictures in

[flint bronze]

[rocky lynx]

I need to clean up some of the older pictures

[flint bronze]

Can I confirm there's no rate limit on your server?

[rocky lynx]

Yes

[flint bronze]

(too late anyways)

[rocky lynx]

Its just a nginx web server

Didnt really do much except add cors headers

[flint bronze]

guhhh cloudflare will kill me

maybe

check your logs if you dare idk

wget is a piece of shit

[rocky lynx]

Several people have done this befor lol

[flint bronze]

good

[rocky lynx]

I got several thousand requests in a few minutes once

[rocky lynx]

is this good or should i add any more sources

[hushed loom]

http.cat

[rocky lynx]

cat api doesnt have CORS headers

[jagged briar]

use cataas

https://cataas.com/

[rocky lynx]

time for native.ts i guess

i dont want to use a proxy

[flint bronze]

You should make right clicking the button open a menu that lets you pick the source

[rocky lynx]

i might do shift + click, currently it sends as a link for click and an attachment for right click. i have both so i can use it in servers where i have only embed perms or only image perms.

[safe glade]

[rocky lynx]

i made it so the tooltip changes based on the selected source, but it doesnt update until you change channels or click it. i do not know how to fix that

[swift delta]

if it is going to be a userplugin… then I went to the possibility of letting someone add their own custom API

Like let’s say hypothetically, I had a goose one or a raccoon one

[flint bronze]

You probably want to use the settings.use(settingNames[]) react hook for this

[rocky lynx]

yeah, that worked

[flint bronze]

[rocky lynx]

i spent about an hour trying to figure out why my native wasnt working to realize i misspelt the plugin name

[flint bronze]

dumbasscatcozy

[rocky lynx]

i have updated the code on the github repo

[swift delta]

Send link to the repo 🙏

[green vessel]

Touch Bar so far any ideas?

[hushed loom]

really neat

if only other devices had a touchbar

[rocky lynx]

https://github.com/Zach11111/randomGary

[green vessel]

Fr I always liked the Touch Bar don’t know why they discontinued it so early

[weak haven]

Thank you

[tropic ice]

doesn't it get rid of f keys?

[green vessel]

The physical keys yea but if you hold fn it comes up with touch bar fn keys which I don’t think is that inconvenient

[tropic ice]

you can't feel them though

[rocky lynx]

I think the touchbar is a cool enough concept that i wouldn't mind not having f keys

[humble tulip]

That's quite the plugin

[hushed loom]

wrong channel 😭

[cedar olive]

insaneeee plugin

when is it getting pred

[hushed loom]

😭

[steady knot]

can be done in css

[green vessel]

Facts

[tropic ice]

you can just assign the actions to your f keys

[green vessel]

Ye but the touchbar is dynamic

[tropic ice]

keyboard can be dynamic too

the actions at least

look now i can type different characters øåæ¨

and question mark isnt in the normal place_

[green vessel]

i meant the touchbar has things like volume adjusting with a scroller and autocorrection word display etc anything that something without a screen cant do

[tropic ice]

word display like on mobile?

ig that's kind of cool

[green vessel]

Yea

[tropic ice]

but i like being able to feel keys

does it at least have haptic?

[green vessel]

Me too it'd be cool if they just added the fn row above or below it

No

its oled though at least

[tropic ice]

also if it's a screen, it would get so smudgy

same problem with touchscreen

[green vessel]

I havent noticed any smudgyness yet ive only had it for a month or so im use to the fn keys but i saw the touchbar and it looked so cool i had to cop it

[tropic ice]

whoa

maybe that's just my hands

if i touch my screen once, it gets a smudgy fingerprint

[green vessel]

Maybe or it might just be noticable when the screen isnt lit

[green vessel]

how can i pass plugin settings native? it says its not cloneable

[hushed loom]

what are you trying to do

[green vessel]

the touchbar is created in native so im trying to pass the settings as an argument to a native function so i can create the touchbar based on the settings they set

[hushed loom]

settings is a proxy

[dull magnet]

you can access Settings from native too lol

lookat other native.ts scripts multiple use settings

[green vessel]

oh shit im dumb i keep forgetting which parts can only be used in index or native

[hushed loom]

forgot about that

[green vessel]

thanks yall

[hushed loom]

tbh its not intuitive given you cant import native in index

[green vessel]

yea hopefully one day we'll be able to use native and index fully in one file like they were combined or something

maybe that is a bad idea im not sure

[small lily]

how exactly do I get image links from the thread https://github.com/Vendicated/Vencord/issues/1749

into a format like this: https://github.com/Vendicated/Vencord/assets/47677887/75e1f6ba-8921-4188-9c2d-c9c3f9d07101

[cedar olive]

when you upload

or copy the links in the rich embed in #👾-core-development

[small lily]

thats much easier lol. thanks

[cedar olive]

maybe if you click to edit the post it shows the links too, I'm not sure

[cedar olive]

lol I've used that before too

[cyan pendant]

is there a plugin for adding captions to gifs

im asking if it exists not for someone to make it )

[amber basin]

no there isnt, use a userapp

[hushed loom]

might be crazy, but whenever i try to use the datastore, the returned promise never resolves

[dull magnet]

hsow code

[dull magnet]

works on my machine

[hushed loom]

shouldnt i also be able to see the other entries here, or am i in the wrong space

[humble tulip]

I have entries in there

Yours seems broken

[hushed loom]

how the fuck

yea

nothing that uses datastore works

for me

[dull magnet]

what browser

[hushed loom]

vesktop

[dull magnet]

there's a good chance you have multiple vesktop processes

close every single vesktop instance and make sure there's nothing in tray / task manager

[hushed loom]

this persisted after a full reboot

[dull magnet]

skill issue sadly I think

you could reset your vesktop data

[hushed loom]

deleting the VencordData entry in idb

[dull magnet]

via tray context menu

[hushed loom]

worked

but i still dont know how this happened

[inner monolith]

How do I get the "developer version of vencord"?

I am running from source, yet I still don't see devcompanion

I know that someone was working on something that made devcompanion obsolete but i'm trying to test my patches in vscode

[humble tulip]

Build with the watch or dev flag

[inner monolith]

where do i set the flag?

ah

Ty

i think

[humble tulip]

Yeah, sorry, I couldn't remember if it needed - or not lol

If not, try without

[inner monolith]

well, what now, i'm not getting much other than

[humble tulip]

Also you don't need watch and dev, watch includes dev but not vice versa

[inner monolith]

how do i test if my patches are applying

[inner monolith]

I see

[humble tulip]

What do you mean?

If you mean in vscode then you need to enable the devcompanion plugin which you should be able to see in the list now and have the companion vs extension installed

Then above your patches you should see buttons to test

[inner monolith]

I have the devcompanion extention installed and

when i try to install it on vencord it says that

let me try to inject it again

oh, weird

[humble tulip]

Sweet

I think I saw jetbrains made webstorm free for personal use recently so I should really get off my ass and finish/polish the intellij port of devcompanion

[inner monolith]

also, are the vencord docs extremely incomplete?

[hushed loom]

dont bother

the apis you use are ultimate only

(unless they changed that too)

[humble tulip]

Aren't they ultimate only because webstorm was paid?

[hushed loom]

nope

[humble tulip]

Ah, well still I should pick that back up

[hushed loom]

could be wrong there, you should double check

this is just what i remember from when i played with it

[humble tulip]

Yeah that's cool. I think the only thing I really need to do from memory is make the reporter results look pretty, which is probably why I haven't got round to it in ages lol

[inner monolith]

I remember there was a command you can put in the discord console to force load the lazyloaded stuff

what is that again?

loadLazyChunks()

nevermind

[humble tulip]

Maybe this?

[inner monolith]

this first

[humble tulip]

Ah

[inner monolith]

works

Why does it highlight pink though, that's weird lol

[dull magnet]

cause some discord module does that lmao

by loading everything you load that

[inner monolith]

I wonder what it's for

looks cool

in some places

[cedar olive]

it's a debug thing lol

[inner monolith]

oh hi Nuckyz

big fan

[inner monolith]

do we know what it is? why are we forceloading it if no one ever uses it

[humble tulip]

Force load everything means everything

[inner monolith]

You're technically right

😠

lol

[inner monolith]

I'm tryinig to fix a plugin I have because an update to discord broke it's finder

but i have no clue where the original string could have been

is there a way for me to roll back my discord?

I'm already on the default branch of discord

[cedar olive]

whats the find

[chrome elbow]

how to make <a href="osu://edit/00:00:000">text</a> works on discord app, it works fine on vesktop but does nothing when clicked on discord app

"Messages.ACCOUNT_A11Y_LABEL"

[cedar olive]

change that to "#{intl::ACCOUNT_A11Y_LABEL}"

run canonicalizeMatch with that as the argument to see what it's actually being transformed to

[inner monolith]

what do you mean by this?

[cedar olive]

canonicalizeMatch("#{intl::ACCOUNT_A11Y_LABEL}")

in console

[inner monolith]

ah, okay

[flint bronze]

you might need ConsoleShortcuts

[inner monolith]

I have

[cedar olive]

this is the syntax for a vencord macro like which you can use in finds and matches now

because discord now hashes their message keys

[flint bronze]

also this is a relatively recent change (about a week ago this was implemented)

[inner monolith]

Yeah, the find works now

[cedar olive]

now if you search that in devtools

you will find it

[flint bronze]

dont blame Vencord for this blame Discord for implementing their new library

[inner monolith]

few matches

[rocky lynx]

what was the point of discord adding this? i dont really understand what benefits it has

[inner monolith]

interesting

they're adding an AI voice assistant?

[cedar olive]

huh

[flint bronze]

no

[inner monolith]

an app icon that speaks to you

[humble tulip]

It's a figure of speech

[inner monolith]

oh

😭

[humble tulip]

An icon that suits you

[inner monolith]

I see

[flint bronze]

It means "special app icons are available for nitro subscribers"

[inner monolith]

yeah

Thank you for the help!

[inner monolith]

I don't understand why there's just a bunch of variables created to just not be used

I'm trying to see how this is set

and i only have that one part referencing this function

oh wait i'm stupid

that's destructuring e

[humble tulip]

Yeah, it's used in 830447 under case"groupend"

[inner monolith]

How did you find that?

[humble tulip]

In this image function l is exported as k on module 911810, so you're looking for o.k as the usage

Which itself is exported as ZA in 788314 and that's used in 830447

[inner monolith]

ahh, how did you sort through all the 'o.k's?

[humble tulip]

You're better off doing what you did here and then just looking at the code to see that particular o's usage

I copy the module into an actual ide to read it better personally

[inner monolith]

oh wait it is exported again

you're right

Ayyy

Thank you

[humble tulip]

[lucid girder]

I cant build vencord it return
You can mark the path "@vencord/patcher" as external to exclude it from the
bundle, which will remove this error.

[hushed loom]

why are you importing that

send full code

[lucid girder]

[hushed loom]

least obvious AI code

[lucid girder]

I found this code

I am testing it

[flint bronze]

[hushed loom]

@lucid girder if you actually want to make a plugin, please look at what other plugins do and copy them

you will not get any help with AI code and will lose access to these channels if you keep asking for help with it

[lucid girder]

I didnt ask AI

[dull magnet]

(yes you did)

that code is just plain wrong, there are no such modules or functions in Vencord

there is also no version field

there is no way you would come up with this code except AI hallucinations

[hoary pilot]

even devilbro wouldn’t come up with this code

[steady knot]

imagine devilbro switching to vencord

[hushed loom]

is there an API for the banner that is here

idk what its called

not sure if any plugins use it

[cedar olive]

nop

[hushed loom]

nop

src/api/Notices.ts

[cedar olive]

ohh

you didnt explain well

[hushed loom]

😭

[raven peak]

so, the plugin I'm editing has this patch that adds the indicator component to the message.:

patches: [
        {
            find: "#{intl::MESSAGE_EDITED}",
            replacement: {
              match: /let\{className:\i,message:\i[^}]*\}=(\i)/,
              replace: "try {$1 && $self.INV_REGEX.test($1.message.content) ? $1.content.push($self.indicator()) : null } catch {};$&"
        }
    },
],

I also created a flux event to try to activate this patch. I had already predicted that it wouldn’t work since it's a FluxDispatcher, but I tried it anyway:

flux: {
    async MESSAGE_CREATE({guildId, message }) {
      const INV_REGEX = new RegExp(/( \u200c|\u200d |[\u2060-\u2064])[^\u200b]/);
      if (INV_REGEX.test(message.content)) {
        const msg = message;
        const dec = await decrypt(msg.content, 'hardcoded_pass', false);
          
        msg.content = dec;
        FluxDispatcher.dispatch({
          type: "MESSAGE_UPDATE",
          message: msg,
          guildId
        });
      };
   }
},

I want to know how to add the component to the message in the context of the flux event

[flint bronze]

Forget the flux event; pass the message (maybe even just the first capture group?) to your component and decode within the component

hm

maybe that might not work?

I need to see the component itself

[raven peak]

flux in my case I think it would be necessary since I need to edit the content of the message and send the dispatch for it to appear edited with the new content for me, unless a patch takes its place, I don't know, I don't know how to work with it yet

[reef gate]

I noticed that one has to code the interfaces themselves! Like this one:

interface ChannelSelectEvent {
    type: "CHANNEL_SELECT";
    channelId: string;
    guildId: string;
}

But how do I know which event provides which keys and value types?

[vast karma]

You find how they're used in the code, or intercept them and look at the object

[reef gate]

Intercept them and look at the object?

[vast karma]

console.log is an excellent way to find how objects look at runtime

Or debugger but who has time for that

[reef gate]

The problem is that one has to rebuild and inject after every change! Then the Discord client has to be restarted every time...

[vast karma]

One of three correct

And that one only half

[reef gate]

?

[vast karma]

cargo watch rebuilds automatically as soon as you save
You do not need to reinject, it's already injected
You do not need to restart the client, just f5

[flint bronze]

cargo?

this isnt rust

this is typescript

[vast karma]

...Duh

pnpm watch

[flint bronze]

you mean pnpm

[vast karma]

Sorry, wishful thinking

[reef gate]

You mean this?

CHANNEL_CREATE(data) {
    console.log(data);
}

[vast karma]

For example

[reef gate]

Rebuilded, no reinjected!

No reaction

Forgot it! Looked in the wrong console (looked in the terminal instead of the console of the Discord client 🤣)

[cedar olive]

you can subscribe to an event using the console too

to inspect its data

Vencord.Webpack.Common.FluxDispatcher.subscribe("CHANNEL_CREATE", event => console.log(event))

[inner monolith]

that looks similar to a discord bot

[vast karma]

I don't think you're gonna get flux events in a discord bot

[inner monolith]

I mean it looks similar to

client.on("channelCreate", event => console.log(event))

[vast karma]

You mean, it looks like an event listener

[inner monolith]

a discord.js event listener to be specific

[vast karma]

Makes sense that an event listener would look like an event listener

[inner monolith]

since CHANNEL_CREATE is snake case for channelCreate

i think you need some chill

very agressive

[flint bronze]

soon

[keen lynx]

for a hypothetical adblock plugin e.g. to remove nitro nags, are there any roadblocks to fetching external data (updated blocking rules) at runtime? i was thinking either technical or perhaps vencord policy issues if the plugin were to be an official one.

and what about if the rule updates affect the plugin's settings page... is it ok for that to change without waiting for a full vencord update? i was considering some granular options to let users choose what to block, and new ideas for stuff to block do sometimes happen.

otherwise, users would have to wait for vencord updates to get rule updates, right?

if the question seems dumb, it probably is. consider that i have no familiarity yet with vencord's codebase or plugin dev. i just wanted to try to evaluate the plugin's feasibility before i started on it.

[flint bronze]

ughhhhhhhh do i really have to reimplement this myself 575175

[keen lynx]

what is this, reverse engineering some discord minified js?

[flint bronze]

Click handler for this mute button

[keen lynx]

i wonder what the significance of those numbers is in the await expression

[flint bronze]

there are a few roadblocks to this idea

1: the idea upstream that a lot of this stuff can be done with CSS
2: "Patches" directly change the Discord code. It would be against Chrome Web Store guidelines to fetch that at runtime (as in, the no remote eval guideline)

[flint bronze]

webpack module IDs

that is a request to lazy load something

as a plugin developer: i hate lazy loading

[keen lynx]

it is already being done as css, but feature creep is setting in, and we are now potentially interested in going beyond the limits of display: none lol

[bronze dove]

findByCode(".toggleSelfMute({location")
```?

[flint bronze]

no

[keen lynx]

but maybe we should just make a plugin for those specific things instead of shoehorning all of that into an adblock plugin. i.e. just have adblock css and try to live with that and then make a simpler plugin for what really needs to be a plugin

[flint bronze]

i need that for deafen

should i just call toggleSelfDeaf directly

[keen lynx]

2: "Patches" directly change the Discord code. It would be against Chrome Web Store guidelines to fetch that at runtime (as in, the no remote eval guideline)

what are the implications of going against chrome web store guidelines? does that actually matter?

[flint bronze]

they just wont publish it

[keen lynx]

is vencord in the chrome web store somehow?

[flint bronze]

yes

[keen lynx]

i had no idea

i see. so basically there is just one vencord and not a separate web store version, so such a plugin could never be an official one

thanks

[flint bronze]

well no, there is not one vencord build
certain plugins use APIs specific to the desktop client for example, or are only useful on web clients

there is one vencord codebase though

[keen lynx]

would you guess that such a plugin would be officially accepted for vencord desktop (whatever regular vencord is called) and whatever vesktop uses?

authoritative answer obviously not needed

just wondering

[flint bronze]

knowing the "if it can be done with another plugin/css" response that occurs very often, probably not, except for the Nitro/Shop pages in DMs (because of keyboard shortcut, but that'd be overlooked anyway)

also, is it too late to say that I've already made a plugin like this?

[keen lynx]

where is it? i mean, i'd probably use it

don't remember seeing it

[flint bronze]

i never posted it in #1256395889354997771 because idk

its on my github if you want to install as userplugin

idk how to bomb quests yet though

[tropic ice]

can't you just use @import in css?

[flint bronze]

i think you can do this as long as you dont ship the import with the extension

[tropic ice]

but why do you need to fetch external data

[tropic ice]

huh
why not just use a css extension like stylebot

[flint bronze]

i haven't published to the chrome web store before, i just read the docs there

you can totally use your own styles

[keen lynx]

mostly, but for example, it would be nice to let users pick which types of stuff they want to block from a settings page with explanations. that gives the user granular control that persists across rule updates without any maintenance burden on his part.

[flint bronze]

its more of a "why isnt this in vencord itself yet"

[tropic ice]

oh

i kind of just skimmed

[keen lynx]

i don't think i articulated that reason yet in here

so you're all good

[flint bronze]

also #🏥-vencord-support-🏥 users are highly impatient when it comes to CWS review

[tropic ice]

cws?

css typo?

[gloomy terrace]

Chrome web store

[tropic ice]

oh

[gloomy terrace]

Whenever the extension gets updated and it takes a while to get approved

[keen lynx]

what's your github

[flint bronze]

heres the userplugin link https://github.com/Sqaaakoi/vc-junkCleanup

[keen lynx]

nice

thanks

[keen lynx]

idk what quests even are. never noticed them.

[flint bronze]

this is a good thing

to put it simply

discord realised the vc funding is drying up so they are now doing interactive advertising

[keen lynx]

it looks like class^=questsIcon_ is already being blocked, but idk if that's enough to explain why i've never seen this crap

[flint bronze]

maybe? maybe not

i mean quests are highly effective at selling things to people

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1015063227299811479/1307346348789469225/Sqaaakoi-17-11-2024-03-07-34.png?ex=673b4a2a&is=6739f8aa&hm=b07d953540da4933dab2a6ca222c8a098fb93afccc5b1fda868f35af24462e6e&

its usually just stuff like "stream a game to a friend for 15 minutes to earn an avatar decoration for 2 months"

this is their latest quest

it forces you to watch a video

fortunately

you can set the playback speed in devtools to 15x

[keen lynx]

what the

i have absolutely heckin' not seen anything like that

[flint bronze]

do you have global discovery (looks like this)

do you see the quests page?

if not, then you must have a decent adblock theme

[keen lynx]

idk how to even get to that discover thing. although i did accidentally navigate to it when i looked at your profile trying to find your github before. you have some dumb quest badge (so much for hating quests......)

lol

[flint bronze]

i never completed a single quest legitimately i dont think

oh

does the xcloud fortnite quest count as legit

they had a generic "play game for 15 minutes on console" quest at one point

[keen lynx]

yes, i am def adding div[aria-label="Completed a Quest"] to the blocking rules

[flint bronze]

[keen lynx]

which is your quest badge

lol

what is the normal way to get to that discover page

[flint bronze]

the button down here

if you have the new global discovery it should stay sticky on the screen at all times

idk why they did that its stupid

[keen lynx]

oh ok thanks. i never even noticed that button in the lower left. never clicked it once. that's why. i'll def add that to the blocking rules as well.

fwiw, i'm using this thing which is just css. maybe you've seen it https://github.com/CroissantDuNord/discord-adblock

ok yeah i see it's supposed to look like a compass. took me 30s of staring at it to understand

ew

[vast karma]

And I have another at https://github.com/Kyuuhachi/VencordPlugins/tree/main/Anammox (readme is outdated, it blocks a few more things than that)

[keen lynx]

yep buhbye to this also div[class^=footer_]:has(div[aria-label=Discover])

[flint bronze]

may i Invite you to share your css in #🎨-theme-development?

[keen lynx]

it's not my project but sure

[flint bronze]

well you can also discuss that and other themes there

[swift delta]

Anammox my beloved

[flint bronze]

?remindme 1h remake these

[fathom pivot]

Alright @flint bronze, in 1 hour: remake these

[small lily]

is there a limit on max number of users muted and blocked?

[fresh jetty]

Hello guys, is there something to add timezone for specific user name and display also the timestamp of the current utc when sending a msg ?

[humble tulip]

Like this? #1032200195582197831 message

[fresh jetty]

Exactly, but its a 3rd party plugins

any chance to merge it to prod

[humble tulip]

Doesn't look like there's a PR for it so you'd have to ask the author to submit it

There is a timezone plugin PR'd but it's a different one I haven't tried

[amber mantle]

i think that one is from the beginning of vencord lol

someone could probably make a new plugin that wouldn't need a billion changes and be fine

[steady knot]

timedones must live

[swift delta]

Why isn’t it possible to require restart on a plugin that doesnt use patches?

[vast karma]

Isn't it?

Thought it was

Though there's usually little reason to require restart other than for patches

[dull magnet]

what's the use case

[swift delta]

a plugin that uses PreSendLitsteners

but the problem is, it doesn’t actually disable unless you restart

[dull magnet]

why

fix ur code

[swift delta]

I DONT WHY ITS DOING THAT THOUGH 😭

[vast karma]

You're passing the same function object, right?

Not just an identical one

[swift delta]

Ik, channelId is unused, i have a plan for that

[vast karma]

Yep, that's two different objects

Don't do that

[swift delta]

Fuck it is?

I didn’t notice

[vast karma]

Pet peeve: remove functions (and any other function) that silently ignore errors

[dull magnet]

GUHHH

you need to pass the same function for remove

you're creating a new function

[dull magnet]
