There's no guide, but there is an example in the documentation for when you first start.

So someone came to me with some not working simple code and I've been going through it trying to figure out what's causing the connection to instantly close when run.

const DiscordRPC = require("discord-rpc");

console.clear();

const clientID = "CLIENTIDHERE";
const rpc = new DiscordRPC.Client({ transport: "ipc" });

rpc.login({ clientID }).catch(console.error);

rpc.on("ready", () => {
    rpc.setActivity({
        details: "Testing",
        state: "Test"
    });
})

I resolved what the issue is, but I came here to ask why EXACTLY this happens

Changing the D in clientID to a lowercase d in both occurrences in the code resolves the instant connection closing and properly sets the activity

And I am just very curious on why exactly this is the case

vapid lake Aug 12, 2020, 12:08 PM

the client id option is handled as clientId rather than clientID in the library (https://github.com/discordjs/RPC/blob/707b744b6662a97c9016709556d625860df14121/src/client.js#L143), it's also documented as a lowercase d (https://github.com/discordjs/RPC/blob/707b744b6662a97c9016709556d625860df14121/src/client.js#L127). having an object literal like { identifier } is the same as { identifier: identifier }, therefore changing the d to lowercase in both occurences sets the key to proper capitalization.

grave wolf Aug 12, 2020, 12:09 PM

ah; that makes sense

thank you very much

Does anyone know an all in one Discord Auto RPC software that detects most development applications?

Like Adobe, VS, Jetbrains, etc

regal crest Aug 12, 2020, 8:38 PM

Hi everyone! Upon running the sample code from the README, ```const clientId = '287406016902594560';
const scopes = ['rpc', 'rpc.api', 'messages.read'];

const client = new RPC.Client({ transport: 'websocket' });

client.on('ready', () => {
console.log('Logged in as', client.application.name);
console.log('Authed for user', client.user.username);
});

// Log in to RPC with client id
client.login({ clientId, scopes }); I get UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: connection closed
at WebSocketTransport.<anonymous> (C:\Users\crmdias\RPC\src\client.js:118:16)``` . I have tried using my own clientId as well to no avail. Can anyone help me to make the login work? I am running the script with "yarn run example" (I have replaced main.js with the appropriate content) on a clone from https://github.com/discordjs/RPC

carmine mica Aug 13, 2020, 1:00 PM

@regal crest you probably want to use ipc instead of websockets

regal crest Aug 13, 2020, 2:39 PM

Thanks for the help @carmine mica ! With ipc I do not get an error, but instead my AUTHORIZE call hangs forever when executing the login. (it hangs on line 219 of client.js, from authorize function call on line 150 of client.js)

drowsy pendant Aug 14, 2020, 10:32 PM

const { Client } = require('discord-rpc');
let clientConfig = {

}
const client = new Client({ transport: 'ipc' });

client.on('ready', () => {

client.login(clientConfig).catch(console.error);```

can i stop this from happening every time i run the app?

@restive bloom

well yeah but I want the scopes

that's kinda the whole reason I've messed with d.js-rpc

crystal crater Sep 8, 2020, 3:30 AM

I thought you could do it once?

restive bloom Sep 8, 2020, 1:56 PM

not sure when

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:01 PM

@dull plume you can call authorize and authenticate before login to get an oauth token

then store that token somewhere

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:01 PM

oh?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:01 PM

basically login just does that all automatically but doesn't store the result anywhere

so it has to ask every time

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:01 PM

ah thanks

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:02 PM

const accessToken = await client.authorize(options);
await client.authenticate(accessToken);

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:02 PM

what would the options be?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:02 PM

and then you can store accessToken somewhere and skip calling client.authorize in the future

clientId/redirectUri/etc

the options you pass to login

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:03 PM

ah ok so remove the uri from login and only keep the scopes and secret?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:03 PM

https://gc.gy/67282411.png

here's login

oh i forgot

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:04 PM

wheres that from?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:04 PM

it stores accessToken on client

so you could actually do

await client.login(options);
store(client.accessToken);

and then next time just do client.login({ accessToken })

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:05 PM

oh god wait im getting confuzzeled

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:05 PM

yeah sorry i forgot how it works

basically

if (accessToken stored somewhere) {
  await client.login({ accessToken });
} else {
  await client.login({
    clientId: 'id',

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:06 PM

so do i have to save the acess token externally?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:06 PM

yeah you have to store it somewhere

or just have the prompt every time 🤷

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:07 PM

well thats annoying...

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:07 PM

you could write it to your config.json

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:08 PM

can i skip the screen and just authorize it differently?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:08 PM

no

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:08 PM

well shiz

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:08 PM

well there is a way to skip the screen if you have permission from discord

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:08 PM

yeah thats not happening

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:08 PM

i would just

write it out to your config.json

oh wait that was a different person

too many code snippets here

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:09 PM

i want to package this into an exe so im not keen to write data to files

but whatever works i guess

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:09 PM

electron?

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:09 PM

well no

i was gonna use pkg

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:10 PM

ah ok

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:10 PM

i dont want multiple files

i just want 1 exe

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:10 PM

you could probably store it in the windows registry

or in appdata

most applications have persistent data they store somewhere

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:11 PM

i mean yeah

no idea how to do that though

havent looked that far yet

i dont think i can do that with fs can i?

carmine mica Sep 8, 2020, 3:12 PM

you can

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:12 PM

oh?

hopefully ill be able to mix them together properly

im guessing myapp is the name of the data directory

something unique

dull plume Sep 8, 2020, 3:19 PM

Is it possible to implement discord rich presence in Android apps

topaz hazel Sep 24, 2020, 7:29 AM

Should be.

Android apps are written in C or C++, so you can add rich presence to that.

left fjord Sep 24, 2020, 1:30 PM

no

discord app on desktop has rpc server your apps connect to

mobile versions do not have that, since it's quite pointless

imma get back to my stuff now

sinful bough Oct 28, 2020, 1:22 AM

@trail hawk Yes, you will need to do these things.
(If you have not already) Define the startTimestamp you can do this by using this line.

const startTimestamp = new Date();

Then instated of doing the normal stuff for yout timestamp just define it as

startTimestamp

Then you can do a simple if function detecting if startTimestamp is equal to your time then just make it end the function,

  startTimestamp: Date.now(),
  endTimestamp: Date.now() + 1337,

Hi ! I dont really understand what rpc do and when. If Im using express to do a website and on a when a user open a page, I want to show a RichPresence on his discord profile (with an OAuth2 request before), its possible or i need something else ? that's why i understand with the example

Set to IPC and it seems to connect, but still can't get it to do anything
