polar karma

they can be, but if you do defer() then followUp(), then followUp will be editing the defer, not sending a new message

did you log finalRoles and check the positions? i know you're doing a function to check stuff, but it's also good to double check the final results

latent plume

the two roles in the text bar are the ones my bot is trying to remove. this fails with the missing permissions error

polar karma

that's not what i asked. i asked you to check finalRoles and its value

latent plume

yeah those roles - sorry i worded it badly

final roles is [ '1023670751921971260', '1023671077932634243' ] (just the ids of the two roles)

polar karma

and those are the roles you want it to keep? so one role is being removed?

latent plume

yep, those are the roles i want
both of them are below the bots role and it should have permission to manage them

polar karma

that's not the problem, if they're already present. the issue would be coming from the role that's not present in that array/set

roles.set(...) should only be the role (ids) of the roles you want to keep (including other roles you're not modifying)

latent plume

i want to keep the * role its just been filtered out cause the bot doesnt have permission to manage it

ahh sorry i think i get it - should final roles still have that * role and any that it is unable to manage?

polar karma

yes, it's going to make the member's roles exactly what's in the array provided

so if it's already present on the member but not in the set(...) method, it will try to remove it, then fail if it doesn't have perms

set() is preferred when you want to both add and remove roles in the same command/flow, since it saves on api requests. it takes a bit of work to understand, but i think you got it now

latent plume

yep, thanks so much for your help!

normal veldt

I still have the issue I described here even after spending an hour trying to fix it, so if anyone would help me, I'd appreciate that 🙂

polar karma

You were given some guidance earlier about a build folder, is there anything new for you to add, also should be in #1081585952654360687

normal veldt

Oh okay, my bad

Will try few more things then if I don't get it to work i'll make a post. thanks

Hi guys, i've a question how to preview server profile than the main profile? displayavatar and avatar both returns same image

steel trail

You want the value from GuildMember, not User

sharp ginkgoBOT

Despite sounding similar there is a distinct difference between users and members in Discord:

  • User: global Discord user data (global avatar, username, tag, id)
  • GuildMember: user data associated to a guild (guild, nickname, roles, voice, guild avatar, etc.)
  • Conversion: User ➞ GuildMember | GuildMember ➞ User
    * Note: Events received in cached guilds will often have both the member and user available, eg. interaction.user and interaction.member
sinful scaffold

but why do both has display avatar and avatar url which does same operation 🤔

steel trail

Because it wouldn't if avatar was null

Then displayAvatarURL would fallback to the one that actually is displayed while avatarURL would just be null

sinful scaffold
steel trail

It does, that's what displayAvatarURL is for. If you want the one displayed, independent of why.

rose tangle

every user has a displayed avatar, so displayAvatarURL always returns something

not every user has a custom avatar, so avatarURL is nullable

sinful scaffold

make sense, so it's safe to use displayavatar than avatar itself am i right?

rose tangle

it kind of depends on what you want

but if you just want to get how the user looks in discord, yes

the member displayAvatar would be the most accurate to account for custom guild avatars

hexed marsh

Is there a way to "Skip" replying to a message? I have an embed that self-updates whenever state changes and I'd like to avoid having to reply to an interaction, because it moves the chat up and down frequently when interacting a lot. I've tried to "Defer" but that doesn't quite do what I'm expecting, and even if I deferReply, then immediately delete the reply, it causes all manner of edge-case scenarios. What's the proper way to "Skip" a reply?

red coral

You can’t do that with any interactions other than message components. But buttons etc you can use .deferUpdate. Other then that, you can’t unless you want that interaction failed response discord side

rose tangle

but if a button is meant to update the message, then just .update() ?

novel mauve

can you not pass the same data in .setAccentColor and .setColor? passing a hex code works in embeds but not in containers, is this intentional?

rose tangle

you can pass a hex code to containers too, just need to pass it as a number, not string

novel mauve

ah ok, but why isn't it consistent with embeds too?

rose tangle

and yes, it's intentional since v2 component builders were made like discordjs/builders v2 builders

it's not possible to remove that functionality from embed builders since that'd be a breaking change

which is coming in v15

sharp ginkgoBOT
novel mauve

ah so it'll be consistent in the next version

steel trail

You can also use that if you want the same functionality for containers

sage mural

Bit confused here. I previously updated these messages fine but now that I moved over to containers, it gives me this error:

DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body
components[COMPONENT_DISPLAYABLE_TEXT_SIZE_EXCEEDED]: Components displayable text size exceeds maximum size of 4000```
I have 3 containers in 1 message. 3637+573+1118 characters in this case. Is the limit 4000 in total for the entire message?
rose tangle

for all text displays in the same message, yes

5300 characters is way too much info to display to the user at once either way imo

sage mural

90% of it are hyperlinks but yes

rose tangle

maybe you could setup some "tabs" with buttons, or "collapsable" sections

sage mural

Yeah I got that. This is supposed to be the overview menu
I'll see what I can remove then, thank you

wary coral

Could you use link buttons the move the Hyperlink out of the text? do link buttons count against the character limit?

rose tangle

no, only text displays

junior ore

is there a way to reply the message without sending a message?
example:

client.on("messageCreate", (m) => {
        if(message.author.bot)
         if(message.content == "a!reply") { message.reply() 
 message.channel.send("hi!")
}
})

without using content

zenith violet

just not reply at all if you dont want to reply?

junior ore
zenith violet

you need content, embeds or an image

i dont see the point of an empty reply eitherway

junior ore
zenith violet

djs doesnt control that

and it wouldnt make any sense

if you reply you need to reply with something

junior ore
zenith violet

just dont reply at all?

junior ore

also i saw something like my idea in a string-based package, so i think they just getting messages, not functions

zenith violet

what

junior ore
zenith violet

i have 0 clue what you are talking about

junior ore

return is counts as non function i think

zenith violet

but in short, no, you cannot reply with nothing

junior ore

I think I did this code wrong, where is my mistake?
zenith violet

you do not need a separate package

djs supports it natively

but then you'd need to use the proper reply call and set the IsComponentsV2 flag

pine quarry 
const { ComponentBuilder, TextDisplay, ContainerBuilder, UserSelectedBuilder, ActionRowBuilder, RoleSelectedBuilder, MentionableSelectedBuilder, ChannelSelectedBuilder, Separator } = require("discord.js");```
So you're saying it's like this?
zenith violet

Not quite

djs uses differnt naming

narrow geode

How do I set a voice channel's "set voice status" permissions? I don't see an entry in Discord.PermissionsBitField

bleak owl

it's not documented so discord.js does not support it

narrow geode

Thanks - do you happen to know if there's an issue about supporting this on discord-api?

bleak owl

there might be, but i am not sure myself

narrow geode

Thanks, I'll investigate

steel yacht

Hi,
Can't I show a modal if I disappear the button beforehand ?

bleak owl

which button?

steel yacht

The button the user clicks for the modal to show up

bleak owl

you can’t make it disappear before the modal is shown

steel yacht

Okay, can I know if the user presses cancel ?

stable sun
steel yacht

Okay, when using awaitModalSubmit, what's the good practice for dealing with the button after cancellation ?

bleak owl

there’s no way to detect when a user presses cancel

unique shoal

Thats why you have a timeout

steel yacht

But the user might press cancel or click outside the modal on accident and retry the button, which will lead to interaction failure, so what's the proper way to prevent this ?

unique shoal

Using unique custom ids each time the modal opens

New button click = new button interaction

The easiest way is to include that id in the modal custom id in some way

steel yacht

But a Promise doesn't fire twice. awaitMessageComponent works only once.

unique shoal

So dont use awaitMessageComponent, if you need to handle more than one possible button click

steel yacht

I don't, really, I just need to prevent the user from trying

unique shoal

I mean... the interaction failing does that

Thats just how it works unfortunately

warped ivy

Hello, I am having trouble with deleting an ephemeral message.

  1. User does slash command, which is replied to with an ephemeral messagse containing a select dropdown
  2. When select dropdown is changed, I want to delete the ephemeral message and open a modal

I have the modal opening successfully, but when I do interaction.message.delete() I get "Unknown message" error. Any ideas? It seems like the message is ephemeral so it's unable to be deleted, but I see here that deletion of ephemeral messages is supported. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

bleak owl

you would use interaction.deleteReply()

warped ivy
bleak owl

you can’t delete a reply if you never replied

unique shoal

Either delete via the original interaction, or use deferUpdate then deleteReply on the second

warped ivy
warped ivy
unique shoal

you dont fetch interactions

bleak owl

you can pass the message as a parameter in deleteReply

warped ivy
bleak owl

interaction.fetchReply will fetch the reply and return a Message

unique shoal

Do you not have interaction.message already

bleak owl

oh wait yeah forgot that ^

warped ivy

It's very weird, interaction.message exists and interaction.message.deletable is true, but interaction.message.delete() gives "Unknown message"

bleak owl

because it’s ephemeral

warped ivy

So how do I delete it? Sorry I don't follow. fetchReply on message returns unknown

unique shoal

interaction.deleteReply(interaction.message)

Try that

warped ivy

InteractionNotReplied

unique shoal

oh cause we have that check internally

bleak owl

can you show your relevant code please? it’s hard to help with such vague information

unique shoal

Okay back to a solution I already suggested

unique shoal
warped ivy
unique shoal Okay back to a solution I already suggested

So if I want to delete from the original interaction (slash command), I don't know how I would be able to tell when the select has been fired? Please advise.

And for deferUpdate and deleteReply, how would that fix the deleteReply error I've already faced?

unique shoal

🤦‍♂️

bleak owl

lol okay it’s really not this confusing

unique shoal

Like Jo said there's a lot of context missing here which makes it difficult to help effectively

Are these events being handled in two completely separate locations with absolutely no ability to reference the original interaction variable?

And as for your second question - thats what the deferUpdate is for

warped ivy
bleak owl

please just show your code

warped ivy

Slash command:

export async function execute(interaction: ChatInputCommandInteraction) {
    const selectMenu = new StringSelectMenuBuilder()
        .setCustomId('support_type_select')
        .setPlaceholder(
            localize(interaction.locale, 'commands.support.selectTypePlaceholder')
        )
        .addOptions(supportTypeOptions);

    const row = new ActionRowBuilder<StringSelectMenuBuilder>().addComponents(
        selectMenu
    );

    await interaction.reply({
        content: localize(interaction.locale, 'commands.support.selectTypePrompt'),
        components: [row],
        ephemeral: true,
    });
}

String select change interaction:

export async function handleInteraction(interaction: Interaction) {
    // Set up modal
    const modal = ...;

    try {
        if (interaction.message && interaction.message.deletable) {
            await interaction.deleteReply(interaction.message);
        }
    } catch (err) {
        console.warn('Failed to delete select menu message:', err);
    }

    await interaction.showModal(modal);
    return;
}
unique shoal

Okay, so yes, these are handled in completely separate functions rather than via an awaitComponent style, thats fine

So lets go with the section option

Oh, but you also want to show a modal

Yeah I really dont think this is worth the trouble

warped ivy

I'd be happy to change it to an awaitComponent style. Didn't know that was a thing. Would that make it easier?

unique shoal

No, since youre responding with a modal

You can try deleting after that? Im not sure how that works actually

warped ivy

Deleting after creation of the modal?

unique shoal

yeah

a modal is a response

warped ivy

That worked! lol what the heck

Thank you so much! I don't really understand why that worked. The modal is a reply -- but why would that suddenly make discord.js think that the original message was replied to?

unique shoal

It has nothing to do with the message

It was always about responding to the interaction

orchid latch

Why between .setColor() and .setAccentColor()
The required type changes from ColorResolvable to RGBTuple | number ??

raven hearth

hey! was the max_length option renamed? it doesn't work anymore

orchid latch
rose tangle

oops replied too late

rose tangle
raven hearth
rose tangle

that's for djs data though

raven hearth
rose tangle

the raw API data uses snakecase

raven hearth

yes but you see if it gets renamed it won't be defined

i have it set as max_length: 5 and currect version is maxLength

rose tangle

it didn't get renamed, that'd be a breaking change

it's just a matter of where you send it

if you make a raw request, like through the REST class, djs won't parse it and transform it to snake_case

raven hearth

it's not raw 👍

rose tangle

yep, hence why you send it like that, not snake_case

which is how the api actually accepts it

raven hearth

mhm, i get that, anyways thank you

warped ivy

Would anyone happen to know why Events.MessageDelete is not firing at all when I delete a message?

        client.on(Events.MessageDelete, () => {
            console.log('test');
        });
rose tangle

the message needs to be cached (sent or fetched after the client logged in)

unless you enable partials

rose tangle

try with user and member as well

warped ivy 
        client.on(Events.MessageDelete, () => {
            console.log('test');
        });
        client.on(Events.ClientReady, () => {
            console.log('client ready');
        });

Client ready fires, but message delete does not fire when a message is deleted

rose tangle

is the bot in the guild as a member?

warped ivy

Yes - oh I might need to mess with its intents or something, let me check on that

rose tangle

I'm pretty sure Guilds should be enough

however if it still doesn't work maybe there's something I'm forgetting

someone else can figure it out, gtg, sorry

warped ivy

Yeah I tried message content intent and still not working. Hmm 🤔 np, thanks for your help! Hope someone else can shed some light.

vast nymph

Hi

I have a question, if I make a defer reply in the bot, i.e. to make the bot think for a moment, how can I set a different text in this message?

because in my bot in this message it writes "(bot name) thinks" and I would like to make it write e.g. like in the picture "sending command..."

if someone replies to me, please ping me

Follow up. You need the deferreply to have the flag

modest marsh

How do I refer to the activity in try block? (And more importantly, how to know the options)

const response = await interaction.reply({
  content: '**Choose activity type from the list!**',
  components: [row],
  withResponse: true,
});

const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id;

try {
  const chosenActivity = await response.resource.message.awaitMessageComponent( { filter: collectorFilter });
  // What variable to refer to to show the chosen activity?
  await chosenActivity.update( { "You chose " content: `${}!` } ); */
} catch {

(I guess it's response.something but didn't manage to guess the right combination so far)

clear garnet

Is this for a select menu?

modest marsh
clear garnet

Then you'd grab it from the select menu interaction itself, which in this case will be chosenActivity

sharp ginkgoBOT
modest marsh
steel trail

Get it from the menu you sent by filtering by value. But what's the use case?

I'd just like to show the user the activity that they just chose as a kind of confirmation, it's not absolutely necessary though

I assume there's no way to add autocompletion to large list of select menu items?

loud quartz

no, string select menus cannot have autocomplete, and other kinds cannot have less entries than all entries for their type, which is why those have ability to search

modest marsh

Hmm, so I guess I'll have to tinker with those other kinds

south sigil

I have a small problem that I don't understand. I load the events correctly and I can see that they are loading. But
client.once(event.name, (...args) => event.execute(...args, client));
client.on(event.name, (...args) => event.execute(...args, client));
loads the events and there are no errors, but these events aren't running like ClientReady, for example.

I also see that the events go through this but nothing happens.

when the event should be triggered.

ruby grove

how to check if the sender of a message has a specific permission with /core? do i need to make another api call

wary coral
sharp ginkgoBOT
ruby grove

intellisense is trolling me then

wary coral

which event are yo getting the message from?

ruby grove

message is GatewayMessageCreateDispatchData, i also console logged the .member to be sure, permissions is not there

wary coral

Your not using the messageCreate event?

ruby grove

i do. i am just using the @discordjs/core with a custom websocket manager, let me log the raw user object from the websocket manager to be sure

wary coral

I guess. then you should uses a cache to store the member other wise you need to fetch the member from the API

ruby grove

i can confirm that permissions doesnt exist in the raw websocket data too

api.guilds.getMember also doesn't return a permission array

proud arrow
ruby grove api.guilds.getMember also doesn't return a permission array

You're correct, traditionally member api structure doesn't have permissions but member returned with interaction payload do, so any other places, you'll have to calculate the permissions yourself taking in account the roles they have and permission overwrites if you want it to be channel specific

ruby grove

that would be a lot of api calls without caching... i'd need to fetch every role noooo

oh wait i can fetch all the roles at once

proud arrow

Do you not cache all guilds on ready? They pretty much have all the information you need

ruby grove

i... dont Clueless

maybe i can free myself of that suffering.. is it possible to initialize the (actual djs) Client object with a custom Gateway? i can see that the constructor ClientOptions has a ws property but i dont think thats exactly what I am looking for, currently i just initialize the core version of Client with my custom gateway and rest

molten holly

hii, I don't use discord.js from months. Could I ask you if the problem of tag an user in an embed is fixed or sometimes show the id instead of the username

polar karma

that's just discord behavior, nothing related to the library. if the user is uncached in your USER client (the one viewing this message right now), it will show as the id because discord does not send the user data with the message payload

however, if you update to use components v2, the user data is sent with the message payload, and it will resolve normally

molten holly

okk thank you so much, but I have to use a specif component or just the EmbedBuilder is ok?

polar karma

components v2 is not compatible with embeds. a message can contain one or the other, but not both (along with some other mutually exclusive items)

molten holly

okok perfect, thank you again

Any idea why autocompletion in slash command always fails ("loading options failed")? I have less than 25 entries, the fields are always strings and even special (Unicode) characters are taken into account

sharp ginkgoBOT

If you aren't getting any errors, try to place console.log checkpoints throughout your code to find out where execution stops.

  • Once you do, log relevant values and if-conditions
  • More sophisticated debugging methods are breakpoints and runtime inspections: learn more

ok how

"hide the command"

how which?

since there are two things I mentioned, to members with permission and to members with a role

modest surge

with a role

zenith violet

you as a dev cannot

modest surge

ok

zenith violet

well, you can, if you have the oauth2 token of the user but djs does not support oauth2

modest surge

ye i hate oauth2 a bot joined me on a 30 servers after i verify

rose tangle

well you gave it permissions to do so

oauth works with permissions (scopes)

you can make your app not require that permission to join other servers for you

modest surge

how do u send this on a discord bot

just like you would for a regular, default emote

just :name:

sure bro

zenith violet

how am i supposed to know you wanted in an embed?

i cant just smell it

sharp ginkgoBOT

Some parts of an embed will not properly resolve mentions (leave them in the @sharp ginkgo format):

  • Author name
  • Footer text
  • Embed title
  • Embed field name
zenith violet

same for emotes

modest surge

how do u get that emote id

zenith violet

default emotes do not have an id

sharp ginkgoBOT

seems like thats what youre after

assuming thats a button

or an embed

modest surge

is this normal button looks skinny

uh not that

then what do you mean by user platform

prime wren

message author/guild member platform

property Message#member discord.js@14.19.3

are you listening to the ready event

did you log to see if it gets called at all

does your bot run at all

also you only need 1 listener per event. Not 11

the more the merrier /s

The ready event wasn't triggered, and nothing related to it was logged in the console.

sounds like theres your issue then

if your ready event isnt loaded yes you wont get any confimation about your bot being online or not

and not any errors in console

Please add the following code to your code base outside of any other event listeners and provide the full log output relevant to your issue.

client
    .on("debug", console.log)
    .on("warn", console.log)

Does DiscordJS provide any interfaces for interacting with Discord through HTTPS rather than through the Websocket Gateway?

zenith violet

No

i mean you can use /rest

sharp ginkgoBOT

HTTP-only applications receive interactions through HTTP webhooks instead of the Discord Gateway. Bots that are not connected to the Gateway, but use HTTP interactions appear as online without a status. Discord.js does not support HTTP interactions. Use discord-interactions instead.

But also that

topaz bluff

Common misunderstanding. A Section in ComponentsV2 is a very specific things. It's a TextDisplay with an inline Button or Thumbnail. No more, and no less

rose tangle

ask discord

they designed embeds that way

if you want more control over the layout you can switch to v2 components instead of embeds

though inline fields aren't a thing there

rose tangle

I'm pretty sure they should be the same size as in an embed?

topaz bluff

Ya, other than the tiny images in the Author and Footer field of an Embed, the images should be exactly the same in Components

uneven plover

Is it possible to send an ephermeral message with v2 components? I tired an arary, but get an interaction error.

halcyon bison

you can
what error are you receiving?

uneven plover
sharp ginkgoBOT

tag suggestion for @uneven plover:
Common causes of DiscordAPIError[10062]: Unknown interaction:

  • Initial response took more than 3 seconds ➞ defer the response *.
  • Wrong interaction object inside a collector.
  • Two processes handling the same command (the first consumes the interaction, so it won't be valid for the other instance)
    * Note: you cannot defer modal or autocomplete value responses
uneven plover

Yeah, I get all that, but here is the thing...

flags: MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2 no error
flags: [MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2, MessageFlags.Ephemeral] Unknown interaction

halcyon bison

that is strange, but that definitely wouldn't be the exact cause
I assume that isn't the only change and that you're also adding components to the message, correct?
is it possible the creation of the components is causing your bot to respond slightly late?

uneven plover

It is very strange. The only thing I can think of is that I am not doing the flags correctly. I am not real clear on bitfields.

halcyon bison

what you have is fine, and it wouldn't cause this issue
if you're really sure that you aren't doing anything that could cause the response to be late, care to share more of your code?

uneven plover

Well doing some digging, and based on some Copiolt suggestions this works...

flags: MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2 | MessageFlags.Ephemeral

I have no clue what that is doing, so I gotta go study

sharp ginkgoBOT

mdn Bitwise OR (|)
The bitwise OR (|) operator returns a number or BigInt whose binary representation has a 1 in each bit position for which the corresponding bits of either or both operands are 1.

uneven plover

Thank you!

rose tangle

either should work tbh

maybe you have a race condition

so it sometimes work, and sometimes doesn't

but it's unrelated to using [] or |

Hmm, interesting. I will play with it. And see what I can figgure out.

Hello, is there a way to retrieve the tag of a server? Anyway, let me explain, I would like to make a bot that allows you to know with a /start if the server is a guildtag or not and if so specify the name of the tag, I searched a little in discord js but I didn't find anything

With entry and exist system you mean guild members joining/leaving the server?

ignore them

they are all the same vulnerability and not relevant for djs

Do you know if they will be fixed in a later update?

it's not an issue that requires to be addressed

like Octobacca said the code is not used at all

Hello! how can i set the bot profile as thumbnail without using URL?

since embed can use .setThumbnail(interaction.client.user.displayAvatarURL())
can i use that in container too? using sectionBuilder??

cobalt tree

I'm confused, i got error on my code. On the picture i sent, how can i implement that?

show the error?

wait, no

you still use a thumbnail builder with the seturl method

do i need to add
.setThumbnail(interaction.client.user.displayAvatarURL())

Under ```const thumbnail = new ThumbnailBuilder()

snow onyx

no, setURL() not setThumbnail()

snow onyx
cobalt tree

wait lemme try

cobalt tree
snow onyx

yes, that makes sense

you need to build the thumbnail before using it

no thats absolutely not what I said

can i create multiple events file like two messageCreate events files for different events

You can but it's not recommended. You should instead, have 1 event listener and then filter the messages to do different things

thorn gate

ok ty

agile nest

whats the difference between on() and once()

sharp ginkgoBOT
topaz bluff

Exactly what it says. Once runs once. On runs indefinitely

agile nest

so ready is once and messageCreate is on for example?

topaz bluff

In general practice, yes. Because ready really only fires once so no need to waste memory listening for an event that'll never happen again. And typically if you want to listen to created messages, you want to do that more than once

You could use once or on for either as they both work on the same events. It's just how you use the listeners

But generally speaking, you will use on for everything other than ready

im missing something or i didnt need to unclude URL for the message? await interaction.editReply({ content: Creating giveaway... (${giveawayMessage.url}), flags: MessageFlags.Ephemeral }).catch(console.error);

yes it was on me for that

loud plinth

Hey, quick help. How do I check if an APIInteractionGuildMember has a permission like Administrator? member.permissions.includes(...) throws a bigint error.

polar karma

are you using /core or mainlib?

loud plinth

mainlib

polar karma

you should be typeguarding your interaction so ts knows where the interaction is coming from (and should give you a full GuildMember) unless this is a user app?

sharp ginkgoBOT
loud plinth

Right now I tried this, but member.permissions is a string

(member.permissions.includes(PermissionsBitField.Flags.Administrator)
polar karma

which even if it's a user app (and the guild is uncached), that should work

again - what is the context of the command? regular command, user app, what

loud plinth

Regular command.

polar karma

then you need to typeguard your interaction

sharp ginkgoBOT
polar karma

that will narrow down the type for ts, so it knows you have a full GuildMember object and member.permissions will be the full permissions bitfield

half rover

Is there a method like ContainerBuilder.from()

loud plinth

Alright. I'll take a look.
Thank you.

I feel like I'm losing my marbles here:

async function editIntroPost(member: GuildMember, guild: Guild, message: Message) {
    try {
        const webhook = await getIntroWebhookClient();

    

        const payload = await getIntroMessagePayload(member, guild);


        console.log(message);

        console.log("isMessageInstance --------> ", isMessageInstance(message))

        if (!message.inGuild()) throw new CustomError("Message attempting to be edited is not in guild.", ErrorType.Error);
        await webhook.editMessage(message, payload as WebhookMessageEditOptions)
    } catch (err) {
        throw err;
    }
}

like, it exists, it's a message instance, and it's in the guild

so why am I getting unknown message 😭

zenith violet

show the full code (including your custom functions) in a pastebin

vast frigate

alright

debugSync.ts is the command file, it just calls into the syncIntroPost method within intro.ts

webhook.ts is where I initialize the webhook client

and then intro.ts has the methods doing the meat of the operations

I just don't get how it's possible that I check if it exists (yes ✅ ), if it isMessageInstance (yes ✅ ), and it is inGuild (yes ✅ ) and then get the unknown message error 😭

in case it was maybe reporting the wrong error via my custom handling, I replaced my handling with a standard console.error

Hi,
Why can't the delete method be used on the Message object returned by followUp from a CommandInteraction object but only the deleteReply method from the CommandInteraction object itself ?

unique shoal

Is it ephemeral?

steel yacht

Yes
(And thank you for replying fast, the slowmode is making it so hard to reply back as fast 😭)

zenith violet

ephemeral messages can only be deleted through the interaction webhook

steel yacht

Okay, is there any way to get back there from the Message object returned by followUp ?

zenith violet

no

pliant forge 
client.on("interactionCreate", async (interaction) => {
    if (!interaction.isStringSelectMenu() || !interaction.customId?.startsWith('message-settings')) return;
    await interaction.deferReply({ ephemeral: true })

    const user = interaction.customId.split('.')[1]

    let guildData = await guildSchema.findOne({ guild: interaction.guild.id })
    if (!guildData) guildData = await guildSchema.create({ guild: interaction.guild.id })
    if (interaction.user.id !== user) return interaction.editReply({ ephemeral: true, content: '' + client.getLanguageString({ language: guildData.language, key: "notYourMenu", variables: { user: user } }) })


    const hasPermission = await checkPermissions(interaction, 1, guildData);
    if (!hasPermission) return;

    let g = interaction.values[0].split('-')[3]
    let get = g.split('.')[0]
    if (get === 'blockedchannels') {

        const menu = new Discord.ChannelSelectMenuBuilder()
            .setCustomId('message-blockedchannels-editx.' + interaction.user.id)
            .setPlaceholder(client.getLanguageString({ language: guildData.language, key: "SYSTEM-MESSAGE-PICKBLOCKCHANNEL" }))
            .setMaxValues(1)
        const menurow = new Discord.ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(menu)

        return interaction.editReply({
            content: ' ',
            ephemeral: true,
            components: [menurow]
        })

    }

})```

But it says Unknown Interactin, whats wrong?
sharp ginkgoBOT

Common causes of DiscordAPIError[10062]: Unknown interaction:

  • Initial response took more than 3 seconds ➞ defer the response *.
  • Wrong interaction object inside a collector.
  • Two processes handling the same command (the first consumes the interaction, so it won't be valid for the other instance)
    * Note: you cannot defer modal or autocomplete value responses
pliant forge

Yeah it doesn't take 3 seconds. And its true interaction im pretty sure

zenith violet

it either does, or you have duplicate listeners

if that is the actuall full code, thats likely your issue

you should have only 1 listener per event

pliant forge

i have very much interactionCreate event but i filter them like

    if (!interaction.isStringSelectMenu() || !interaction.customId?.startsWith('message-settings')) return;
zenith violet

also, editReply doesnt take ephemeral, and itrs deprecated

zenith violet

you only need 1

or else this happens

pliant forge

Oh

So i need to put all in one with filters for like these things?

zenith violet

yes

and preferably have a handler per component type

not just cram it into a single file

pliant forge

Thank you i didn't know it

steel yacht
zenith violet no

Okay, is there any way to automatically delete a message when a timeout is reached on awaitMessageComponent ?

zenith violet

boom theres your interaction

steel yacht

Where ?

zenith violet

did you write that code yourself

steel yacht

Yes, but I don't have access to it in that catch scope

zenith violet

Then youre gonna have to find a way to pass it in if you want to delete your message

steel yacht

So, I'm asking, what's the proper way to delete in the catch scope of awaitMessageComponent ?

sharp ginkgoBOT
zenith violet

same answer as before

and it will remain the same answer

steel yacht

So, deleting an expired awaitMessageComponent requires a variable outside of its own scope ? 😭

zenith violet

you need an interaction webhook

zenith violet

Nothing djs can do about

steel yacht
steel yacht
zenith violet

thats not quite how any of this works

djs is an api wrapper

what the api returns is what djs returns

in this case a Message

if you had a non ephemeral message you could call .delete just fine

steel yacht

Okay, what about the opposite then ?
Could I call awaitMessageComponent from CommandInteraction ?

zenith violet

Only on a Message (or InteractionResponse, but thats broken more often than not)

steel yacht

Could I get the Message object from the CommandInteraction object ?

zenith violet

depends on whether its a ChatInputCommandInteraction or a context menu command interaction

steel yacht

There's a replied property on it, so the reply should be somewhere

spark hare

How can I add multiple button accessories in sections?

zenith violet

a ChatInput does not have a message property, so no

zenith violet
spark hare

fair

steel yacht
zenith violet

same answer

there is no message property

steel yacht

How can there be a replied property then ?

unique shoal

To record that it was replied to

zenith violet

check the source code

im done here

unique shoal

But you can reply with a defer, or other things

Arguing the point when you're told the answer is pointless

zenith violet

you have your answer, i dont see why you keep trying to change the fact you need the webhook to delete an ephemeral message

steel yacht

I'm just trying to understand why it has been made so difficult

loud quartz

what was made so difficult

steel yacht

Managing interactions

unique shoal

Its really not very difficult - you should really do everything via the webhook, as it was designed by Discord

loud quartz

because interactions are done with webhooks

that sometimes might leave a regular message that your bot user might have access to

zenith violet

you not having access to the interaction webhook in your code is a you issue

its nothing djs can do about

unique shoal

It's really coincidental that for proper messages, bots can delete them due to unrelated message deletion functionality, if your bot has those permissions in a server

But for ephemerals, since they use a completely different architecture, you MUST use the webhook

steel yacht
unique shoal

It kinda sounds like youve done the opposite

steel yacht

Really ? Because what I've done is make a universal function to call awaitMessageComponent. That has been very much simplifying my dev experience

loud quartz
unique shoal

Actually yeah thats true, lots more places than there used to be

cobalt tree

I'm trying to embed an audio player in a componentsV2 container, just like discussed here https://discord.com/channels/222078108977594368/1367967621068357643
However, it doesn't embed a player. I've tried OGG, WAV and MP3. The file served works okay and even embeds when re-uploaded. Discord.js 14.19.3; NodeJS 22.12
What's wrong?

const container = new djs.ContainerBuilder();

const audioPath = bot.features.dialog.getAudioPath(dialogLine);
const audioData = await readFile(audioPath);
const audioAttachment = new djs.AttachmentBuilder(Buffer.from(audioData), { name: 'test.ogg' });

const file = new djs.FileBuilder().setURL('attachment://test.ogg');
container.addFileComponents(file);

return {
    components: [container],
    files: [audioAttachment],
    flags: djs.MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2,
} as djs.BaseMessageOptions;```
rose tangle

file components don't support the preview

same for text files

there's no workaround other than not using v2 components

rose tangle
radiant jewel
rose tangle

yeah maybe they aren't aware of that

trim elm
rose tangle define "obviously be ratelimiting"

For example editing the same message over and over 5 times the 4th and 5th edits are 5s apart roughly, which is the retryAfter duration. The rateLimited event from rest doesn't go off anymore (anymore meaning last ~3 days)

(was only doing this to find the problem, not production code)

radiant jewel

Can embeds hold audio players? Having a hard time finding info about this

topaz bluff
rose tangle
radiant jewel

Alright, so, the only way is just send the file/buffer

rose tangle

yeah, as a regular file

it'll appear outside the embed

below iirc

radiant jewel

Ohh, but like, in the same message? I didn't know that was possible

topaz bluff
rose tangle

only with v2 components you can only send components

or files, but must be referred in a component

so essentially just components

red coral

Hey, I'm struggling with trying to disabled buttons from comp v2:

 const components = interaction.message.components;
            const actionRow = components.find((comp) => comp.type === ComponentType.ActionRow);
            if(!actionRow) return await interaction.reply({
                content: "No action row was found. Please report to gwapes",
                flags: "Ephemeral"
            });
            const newRow = ActionRowBuilder.from(actionRow);

            newRow.components
                .filter((comp) => comp.data.type === ComponentType.Button)
                .forEach((comp) => comp)

The forEach comp is still AnyComponentBuilder. The buttons are the ones outside of the main container

rose tangle

use the generic

red coral

Oh in the action row?

sharp ginkgoBOT

In TypeScript the ActionRowBuilder class has a generic type parameter that specifies the type of component the action row holds:

const row = new ActionRowBuilder<ButtonBuilder>().addComponents(button)
const row = new ActionRowBuilder<StringSelectMenuBuilder>().addComponents(selectMenu)
const row = new ActionRowBuilder<TextInputBuilder>().addComponents(textInput)
rose tangle

yep

I don't think the .type narrows it

might be wrong though

rose tangle
red coral

Then I get this, would I need to as ... it, since I know they're going to be buttons?

rose tangle

yeah

radiant jewel
red coral

do yk what I'll be as'ing it as by any chance?

topaz bluff

Amgelo knows more than I about this, they did most of the helping

But if you have any issues, feel free to ask

rose tangle

something like ActionRow<ButtonComponent> I think

red coral

yes that's it, thanks a lot man

const components = interaction.message.components;
const actionRow = components.find((comp) => comp.type === ComponentType.ActionRow);
if(!actionRow) return await interaction.reply({
    content: "No action row was found. Please report to gwapes",
    flags: "Ephemeral"
});
const newRow = ActionRowBuilder.from<ButtonBuilder>(actionRow as ActionRow<ButtonComponent>);

newRow.components.forEach((comp) => comp.setDisabled(true));

How would I then rebuild the entire comp v2 container etc? I'm guessing it's something to do with the components const but not too sure

Also, is the guide done yet for v2 comp? Does it cover this?

wary coral

component being components[0]?

Thanks everyone, managed to get it working 🙏

limpid sage

Is there a way to take a defined new SlashCommandBuilder() and parse a JSON http body? When working in deno/cloudflare I don't have the advantage of the bot-client. I would like to maintain as much strong typing as possible.

red coral

Those are only for deploying though? But you'd have to parse the json body yourself by calling each function

limpid sage

Thats a shame, I was hoping there was a way to define the slash command once for deploying and parsing

red coral

Could just do it locally rather then on your worker, since commands only need to be deployed once you've changed something. You could also just use a type and pass json itself rather then using a builder

limpid sage

Oh, yeah I dont need to deploy the commands from the worker. Sorry if I was unclear.

I want to be able to parse the HttpBody with the same typescript types that the InteractionCreate handler uses.

red coral

Djs doesn't work on workers as I'm sure you'd know anyway. If you wanted some better types then look at discord-interactions which works as an entire library. If you don't want all that, then you would have to make your classes using discord-api-types/v10

limpid sage

Right, Im not trying to use the bot client on workers. The bot client is handy for deploying commands, and for local debugging. Eventually though, I will deploy the real handlers to cloudflare workers. This is all working fine, but I have a bunch of parsing that feels duplicative since I know the interaction handler does the same parsing from the same input. I was just hoping to re-use what appear to be djs internals.

rose tangle

yeah the builders actually build to raw rest data

which is how the deploy script works

maybe you can get an idea from there

limpid sage

Thats going from SlashCommandBuilder to JSON. I want to go from JSON (the APIInteraction body on the incoming http request for interaction handling) to a parsed Interaction.

rose tangle

ah, I misunderstood, my bad, so you're making an http only bot?

limpid sage

Yes

red coral

Again you kinda have to make those classes yourself. Unless you use a lib like discord-interactions. You can copy and paste and modify the code from the source code for djs though

limpid sage

I don't think discord-interactions helps with this, unless I am missing something. It only has the very top level InteractionType, it doesn't help with parsing options or subcommands

red coral

It does, but you can just copy djs implementations if you want

rose tangle

you can try the @sapphire/discord-utilities package

it provides an interaction option resolver similar to djs'

I've made a test script to force a ratelimit to test my handlers, so I've ran that again and magically they don't even fire, but I can physically see discords ratelimiting. I'm aware that it's not static hence why I'm using the event than a set limit.
My problem is why the events aren't firing anymore. No code was changed at all it's still:

always use guild specific commands

cobalt tree
steel trail
unkempt thistle
loud quartz

undocumented

feel free to try it out

steel trail

4000 for all characters in components

loud quartz

does that mean that any and all singular components don't have any limits themselves?

only limit being 4k in a message?

steel trail

Yes (apart from the existing limits of interactive components)

loud quartz

hm, would be cool if that was documented then. explains why components don't mention it, but nowhere does it say that using cv2 doubles character limit per message

embeds field for creating message does say

[...] (up to 6000 characters)

loud quartz

seems to be "no limit" on TDB, but capped to 4k at message level

loud quartz
steel trail

Exactly

And afaik the character limit is not documented so they can theoretically change it later

rose tangle

4k in the entire message for all content components (currently only text displays), not per text display

Hi,
Why would an editReply containing buttons lead to an immediate "interaction failed" error without being clicked ?

zenith violet

You arent responding to the button interaction, you're just editing the reply of the commandinteraction probably

steel yacht

Yes, is that yet another impossibility ?

zenith violet

You have to reply to the ButtonInteraction

You have to reply to any interaction

sharp ginkgoBOT

method ButtonInteraction#update() discord.js@14.19.3
Updates the original message of the component on which the interaction was received on.


// Remove the components from the message
interaction.update({
  content: "A component interaction was received",
  components: []
})
  .then(console.log)
  .catch(console.error);

i have a guildMemberUpdate event and checking for old and new roles. why do my old roles just display as @everyone even though i had other old roles?

bleak owl

do you have the GuildMembers and Guilds intents?

leaden shuttle

yeah

export const client = new Client({
  partials: [Partials.Message, Partials.Channel, Partials.User, Partials.GuildMember, Partials.GuildScheduledEvent, Partials.ThreadMember],
  intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.GuildMembers, GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages, GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent]
});
bleak owl

do you need all those partials?

leaden shuttle

no ill remove some

bleak owl

enabling partials can actually limit what info is shown

leaden shuttle

same issue

const event: Event = {
  name: getFileName(import.meta),

  async run(oldMember: GuildMember, member: GuildMember) {
    if(member.guild.id !== guilds.main) return;

    console.log(1);

    console.log("Old roles:", oldMember.roles.cache.map(r => r.name));
    console.log("New roles:", member.roles.cache.map(r => r.name));
  }
};

Even if you have the GuildMember partial, that won't mean the old member's role data will always be there. Discord does not provide the old member data in the event, so discord.js has to rely on the cache for this old member data. If the member wasn't cached before the event emitted, then you aren't going to get much old member data. Nothing you can do about that

leaden shuttle

how do i ensure the member is cached?

clear garnet

By not having the GuildMember partial

leaden shuttle

if i remove the partial what are the cons of that?

clear garnet

If you exclude the partial, the guildMemberUpdate event will only emit if there is cached data for the member

leaden shuttle

so that still wont help me? im trying to update my database when someone's roles update- is there a better way to do this?

clear garnet

If your app is built around a single guild and you don't plan for it to be added to other guilds, another option would be to fetch all guild members on ready

I add that caveat because if your app is in hundreds if not thousands of guilds, it's not gonna be wise to fetch every member for every one of those guilds

300 members to fetch is hardly anything

leaden shuttle

surely you cant make 300 api requests and not get ratelimited?
