[keen phoenix]

It does it works fine the image shows up on the embed and I can click on it and get the link

I create the attachment like this from imageBuffer
const attachment = new AttachmentBuilder(imageBuffer, { name: "result.png" });

[hallow mesa]

Ah. If you're embeding it in the same message it won't show up in attachments. Not sure the cleanest way to check for it

[stable sun]

I thought it was just message.embeds that were updated in

[keen phoenix]

I cant find the solution on the internet, do you know where to look?

[blissful tinsel]

anyone know how i can put fields like this in a container?

[hallow mesa]

You can get it from the embed thumbnail at least. Embed.thumbnail.url

[hallow mesa]

Maybe it should be but I don't see it either. Edit: It isn't in the message returned by REST so I assume it's intentional

[bleak owl]

fields don't exist in containers

[keen phoenix]

i use .setImage(attachment://result.png)

after doing const attachment = new AttachmentBuilder(imageBuffer, { name: "result.png" });

[blissful tinsel]

can fields be remade in a similar way? I need to stack text top to bottom then do that 3 times next to eachother

[hallow mesa]

Then the URL from the image

[unique shoal]

No, there's no component in containers that allows for inline text like fields

[sharp ginkgo]

documentation suggestion for @keen phoenix:
Embed discord.js@14.19.3
Represents an embed.

[blissful tinsel]

damn thats sad

[bleak owl]

embeds still exist

containers are just a new way of using components

[blissful tinsel]

yea but if i need fields that basically means this new update doesnt provide anything I can use right

or is there some way i can use embeds with the new containers

[bleak owl]

of course it does, just not fields, authors, footers

embeds and containers are not the same

and cannot be used together

[stable sun]

Apparently Discord only provides the filename and description of attachment for withResponse

[blissful tinsel]

but lets say I want to make something like this. Since this embed basically relies entirely on fields I dont really think I can do anything new with the containers v2

[stable sun]

@keen phoenix so call interaction.fetchReply() manually if you really need the attachments

[bleak owl]

you won't be able to have them separated like that in a container, but you can use separators which are horizontal and make your data horizontal as well

[keen phoenix]

the url is just for discord to understand which file I mean, it wont work in the browser. I need to add a downloda button to my embed that downloads the attachment

[keen phoenix]

same thing

attachments: 0 in what .fetchReply() returns

[rose tangle]

I don't understand, what does the browser have to do with it?

the url should be in the image regardless of the platform

[stable sun]

fetchReply is what d.js used to do

[hallow mesa]

I think they might be trying to generate a new URL for an expired attachment link by putting it in an embed?

[stable sun]

If it’s expired, the image wouldn’t be fetchable in the first place

Even if it was gonna expire, why send another message when you can just refetch the original message?

[rose tangle]

iirc fetching the message always returns a non expired url either way

unless it's from an ephemeral message

[hallow mesa]

If you have an expired attachment but not the original message you can put it in an embed to view it inside the discord client

[rose tangle]

you sure? because since it's expired it should be completely useless

[stable sun]

If you use a url as an attachment, d.js fetches it and sends the file alongside the json payload

[hallow mesa]

I thought I was sure but I'm going to double check... I thought I still had some expired URLs being used as assets in embeds. That's not re-sending them each time though

[stable sun]

You think they are using expired links in the embed itself?

[hallow mesa]

That was my guess based on the URL not working in browser and needing a "download" button for something anyone could just click

[keen phoenix]

@stable sun@hallow mesa@rose tangle All I'm trying to do is send an image inside an embed and also provided a download button

[rose tangle]

where does the image come from?

[keen phoenix]

I generate it

[stable sun]

That download button won’t work forever unless you link it outside of Discord

[rose tangle]

send the embed and edit it later with the discord url

[stable sun]

Attachment urls have expiry time

[rose tangle]

because you can't have the url before uploading it

[keen phoenix]

thats okay I just need it to work for a while

[rose tangle]

also this

[keen phoenix]

Yeah, but I could just get the url discord gives it and then update the button to point to that..

[rose tangle]

yeah, that's what I'm suggesting

[keen phoenix]

But yeah if I wasnt so ... I should've given up much earlier and just I shoulve just looked up how to host a file server

[rose tangle]

though I'm pretty sure all clients have a button to download

[stable sun]

URL buttons don’t trigger interactions

[rose tangle]

pretty sure they meant to update after replying, not on another interaction

[stable sun]

Unless ur gonna setup a webserver that fetches the message

Oh

[keen phoenix]

Yeah, I found out you cant have the url before sending the image

So I would like to send the embed with the image... get the image url update the button to point to it

[rose tangle]

and what's the issue?

[keen phoenix]

I cant find the attachment url anywhere

[stable sun]

The attachment isn’t included in the returned message

[keen phoenix]

I tried .fetchReply, includeResponse...

[rose tangle]

isn't it on embeds[0].image.url or something like that?

[stable sun]

That’s the attachment scheme

[rose tangle]

hmm makes sense ig

[stable sun]

They’re attaching an image file that’s used in the embed

[rose tangle]

maybe ask in ddevs if nobody here has a clue

[stable sun]

Can you show the code with the fetchReply?

[keen phoenix]

yeah

  const reply = await interaction.reply({
    embeds: [responseEmbed],
    files: [attachment],
    components: [row.toJSON()],
  });

  console.log(reply)

  const resp = await interaction.fetchReply()

  console.log(resp)

attachments are always an empty Collection

[stable sun]

Can you comment out the log for reply?

[keen phoenix]

I use this to be sure

[stable sun]

Log resp.attachments

[rose tangle]

what does image.proxyUrl say?

if present anyways

[stable sun]

Message.attachments field should always be present, never undefined

[rose tangle]

I'm talking about image.proxyUrl

[keen phoenix]

I said it was an empty array

[rose tangle]

since it's marked as optional

[stable sun]

But ur search bar shows 0 results

[keen phoenix]

Yeah my bad, I ran clear

[keen phoenix]

Which image do you mean?

[clear garnet]

Does the attachment get returned if you exclude the embeds & components in your reply?

[rose tangle]

embeds[0].image

[keen phoenix]

It will return this, thats not a real url it needs to be uploaded first

[rose tangle]

so both url and proxyUrl say that?

[keen phoenix]

Where do you get the embeds?

[rose tangle]

message.embeds

[keen phoenix]

Yes it does

[clear garnet]

Sounds like Discord just stores it on the message differently if its used in an embed/component then. I'd try resp.embeds[0].image then like Amgelo suggested

[clear garnet]

That's with you re-adding the embed & components into the message, right?

[keen phoenix]

Such a weird issue

[stable sun]

Embed is edited in

[rose tangle]

did you undo this

ah, then after the edit

[keen phoenix]

🥶

[rose tangle]

though this shows the embed in the first reply?

I'm confusion

[keen phoenix]

That worked damn, I checked the returns a few times but I guess I relied on searching for attachments too much

[rose tangle]

which one is the url? for future reference

.url or .proxyUrl?

[clear garnet]

I would assume both

[keen phoenix]

Yep. Thanks so much guys

[clear garnet]

Since that's the data Discord is giving back. The attachment schema should only be for uploading the attachment

Afterwards Discord places the actual attachment URL(s) into their respective fields (url & proxyUrl)

[torn orchid]

const { SlashCommandBuilder, EmbedBuilder } = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
  data: new SlashCommandBuilder()

      const guildName = interaction.guild.name;
      const guildIcon = guild.iconURL({ dynamic: true });

      await interaction.editReply({ embeds: [embed]});
    },
  };```
/membercount isnt popping up when i refresh discord

[clear garnet]

Did you run your command registration script again?

[torn orchid]

yes

[clear garnet]

Are you deploying your commands globally or to a specific guild?

[rose tangle]

also, this is unrelated but those are sync actions, fast enough to not require a defer

[torn orchid]

oh alr

globally

[keen phoenix]

Thanks a lot. @rose tangle@clear garnet@stable sun

[clear garnet]

Run console.log(await client.application.commands.fetch()) in your ready event and see if the command shows up in that Collection

[torn orchid]

it doesnt

[clear garnet]

Then it sounds like your commands didn't actually get registered

[torn orchid]

how do i register?

[clear garnet]

If you're following our guide, it would be the deploy-commands.js file

[torn orchid]

alright what now?

whats the doc

[clear garnet]

Do you not have a command deployment/registration script?

[torn orchid]

I have a RegisterCommands.js but i dont think script

[hallow mesa]

Sorry, I got pulled away for work. What I am able to do is take an expired link that doesn't work in-browser and put it as the image in an embed (not using attachments://) and it previews fine. You can then click the image to generate a new link that can be shared outside of Discord (until that one new expires)

    const reply = await interaction.reply({
        embeds: [new EmbedBuilder().setThumbnail(expired)],
    });```
Where expired is `https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/942902871974895667/1095746625189716008/1036765044081426483.png?ex=66915911&is=66900791&hm=390a6929786533a01e8e5a0f311cdb7facb9d19bf7925590cb0d33d74bbb0cd1&`

[rose tangle]

maybe since the client is authenticated it's able to get a refreshed url and use that instead of the "real" one

that's my best guess

[hallow mesa]

Yeah something like that. And if you fetch the message and check the embed, it has a different expiration timestamp than the expired one I provided. Edit: Or maybe just Discord replacing any expired URLs it receives with new ones 🤷

[torn orchid]

It keeps saying "Loaded 0 buttons" even though I have one.

[topaz bluff]

"loading" buttons sounds like a custom button handler...without seeing you're code, that's meaningless to us

[torn orchid]

what code would you need to see

[topaz bluff]

I have no idea. Whatever code "loads" your buttons

Again, DiscordJS doesn't have anything like that, so I have no idea where to even begin to help you

[torn orchid]

alr

alr nvm then

[jagged shell]

Hi guys, I'm working with fetchAuditLogs() to do kick/leave logs and I ran into a problem.
I tried kicking the member first and it works, then I try to leave the server normally but it says as if it was kicked like the first time, why?

[elfin scroll]

if i remember right leaving doesn't trigger an audit log entry, so you are probably just reading the kick entry from the previous test

[jagged shell]

Just as i thought, can i solve this somehow?

[clear garnet]

Narrow it to a certain time frame relative to when the leave event was emitted, as well as the user in question if you haven't already

[jagged shell]

I will try it out, thanks to both of you for the help

[zealous bison]

is there any way to know approximately how many messages there are in a channel?

[bleak owl]

not reliably

[past trellis]

Is there any way to get the NATIVE NAMEs from https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#locales instead of LANGUAGE NAME like I get from const { Locale } = require( 'discord-api-types/v10' );?

[topaz bluff]

I'm not sure if there's a built in way, but since every option is already visible, you can make your own Map/Collection using the locale as the key

[past trellis]

Maybe I can just pass all the codes through https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/DisplayNames#language_display_names?

[vital vortex]

Anything special I should know about RoleSelectMenuBuilder? I've got channel selects working fine but no matter what I do I cannot get the role selector to pick roles even on a base testing command

[bleak owl]

what seems to be the problem

[vital vortex]

Interaction failed no matter what I do.

const { SlashCommandBuilder, ActionRowBuilder, RoleSelectMenuBuilder } = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('testroleselect')
        .setDescription('Test role select menu'),
    async execute(interaction) {
        const roleSelect = new RoleSelectMenuBuilder()
            .setCustomId('test-role-select')
            .setPlaceholder('Select roles')
            .setMinValues(1)
            .setMaxValues(5);
        const row = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(roleSelect);
        await interaction.reply({
            components: [row],
            content: 'Test role select menu below:'
        });
    },
    async select(interaction) {
        console.log('[testroleselect] customId:', interaction.customId);
        console.log('[testroleselect] incoming values:', interaction.values);
        await interaction.update({
            components: [],
            content: `You selected roles: ${interaction.values.join(', ')}`
        });
    }
}; 

No logs from anything too so unsure what's wrong.

[clear garnet]

What is this select function? Is this part of your interaction handler that's running this? What's the logic (your code, not your thought process, just to be clear) behind that?

[topaz bluff]

Aka, show us your Client#on("interactionCreate")

[verbal plinth]

Is it possible to query a CategoryChannel to see how many channels are in this category?

ig you should put current presence outside loopPresence()

did you call activityPresenceTHING()? @trim basin

[trim basin]

yes in the ready event

[clear oar]

you can put console.log inside each method to log different thing, and you can tell where things fail

[trim basin]

okay let me try

[clear oar]

in loopPresence put

console.log(`current position ${idx} | name ${current.name} | type ${current.type} | timeout ${current.nextDelay}`)

try replacing await bot.user.setPresence({...}) to let pres = await bot.user.setPresence({...})

[trim basin]

oh okay

[clear oar]

and pres.then(() => {console.log("set presence success")}.catch(e => console.log(e.stack))

restart your bot, wait a few time, and show me what the console says

Create it on reply.resource.message

[drifting dirge]

hmm, why does it have a | null

[steel trail]

Because InteractionCallbackResponse can be created by any method responding to interactions. And showing a modal or responding to an autocomplete interaction don't create any resource

hi guy, who can help me?

[rose tangle]

are you trying to build the djs monorepo?

[harsh elm]

nah

tryin to npm i smth, but i cant

[rose tangle]

and how is it related to djs?

[spring bramble]

Hello! I was running the bot in the EU region and it worked normally. However, after moving it to run in the USA region, a large number of 'Unknown interaction' errors started occurring

[harsh elm]

like npm canvas, i cant, npm discord.js i cant

[rose tangle]

if you can't install any module it doesn't sound djs related then

[harsh elm]

didnt u know what's that error mean?

[rose tangle]

can you show your code that's causing the unknown interaction?

[rose tangle]

kinda, but that doesn't change my answer either way

[steel trail]

That means your question is not related to djs. It's related to node-canvas. You can try your luck #1081585952654360687 if you want

That sounds like your new host has a bad network connection then. Is it a dedicated host? Or a shared Hoster?

[spring bramble]

As a safeguard for long processing times

[spring bramble]

Host Hetzner 🥹

[steel trail]

But there's nothing being processed in between. So that makes no sense or difference

[steel trail]

Dedicated VPS with its own IP? Hetzner has many different offers I suppose

[rose tangle]

does hetzner even have usa servers?

last time I checked it only had in eu

[rose tangle]

ah, those are in the higher end

ask your support then

[spring bramble]

okay, thank you for help ❤️

[steel trail]

Hetzner has no datacenters in USA though. You basically buy a server through Hetzner but in the end it's in another provider's datacenter and they simply resell it to you

Thank you for the information, I honestly didn’t know that 🥹 .

Yes but I can't find "manage permissions" in the list 🤔

[sage igloo]

Sorry to bother you guys, I wrote this line and I'm getting an error that i've never seen before :')

how to add # Header in embed?

or some way to enlarge emoji

[topaz bluff]

Embeds don't support most markdown. Best way to enlarge an emoji in an embed is attaching it as an image or thumbnail

[flint pier]

how to add image to embed? i don't mean big image below but emoji in description or fields

[topaz bluff]

You can check the ddocs here for what each role does. "Manage Permissions" isn't a thing

[topaz bluff]

You don't. I would recommend checking out Components V2 if you want more control over the formatting
#announcements message

[topaz bluff]

Because that's not a role permission. That's a channel override

[steel yacht]

Then how to add that to a role ?

[sharp ginkgo]

PermissionOverwriteManager#create() discord.js@14.19.3
Creates permission overwrites for a user or role in this channel, or replaces them if already present.

// Create or Replace permission overwrites for a message author
message.channel.permissionOverwrites.create(message.author, {
  SendMessages: false
})
  .then(channel => console.log(channel.permissionOverwrites.cache.get(message.author.id)))
  .catch(console.error);

[steel yacht]

So I absolutely have to loop through all channels if I want to add that server-wide ?

[topaz bluff]

That or you use a role permission that does what you want like ManageServer

[flint pier]

emoji zoom like this

[topaz bluff]

With that being zoomed in with no other text to use as reference, that looks perfectly normal....what's your question? Or is this just a statement?

[flint pier]

i mean if you add normal emoji the emoji will be very small but in the picture you can see it is very big

[steel yacht]

Unfortunately I don't have a choice, I've been asked to provide the ability to only give "manage permissions".
However :

export type PermissionOverwriteOptions = Partial<Record<keyof typeof PermissionFlagsBits, boolean | null>>;
```"Manage permissions" isn't in `PermissionFlagsBits` ?

[topaz bluff]

^

It's probably not an Embed. It's probably a Container/TextDisplay

[topaz bluff]

Check for yourself
https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/permissions#permissions-bitwise-permission-flags

[flint pier]

but when using embed command directly in discord, # header will be

[rancid shoal]

whats the easiest way to support diff langs in your bot and commands

[chrome mirage]

i18n

[sharp ginkgo]

SlashCommandBuilder#setNameLocalization() discord.js@14.19.3
Sets a name localization for this command.

[topaz bluff]

Ya. And that

[rancid shoal]

whats does this do exactly deploy another command the same just a diff lang or adjust to the users langiage on discord

[steel yacht]

I can't find it...

[topaz bluff]

Yup, as I said. It's not a role permission

[steel yacht]

Then how do I use channel.permissionOverwrites.create to add "manage permissions" ?

Because the docs says this very method uses properties of PermissionFlagsBits as well

[chrome mirage]

im afraid it cant automatically detect user language on discord, but you could make a command for users to switch between languages of your bot

[rancid shoal]

so what does it do then

if the users discord app is polish for example it will use the polish localization?

[chrome mirage]

no, they will have to use the command to change languages manually

[sharp ginkgo]

documentation suggestion for @steel yacht:
PermissionsBitField discord.js@14.19.3
Data structure that makes it easy to interact with a permission bitfield. All GuildMembers have a set of permissions in their guild, and each channel in the guild may also have PermissionOverwrites for the member that override their default permissions.

[rancid shoal]

when this command is ran what will happen ?

[topaz bluff]

The command name and description will be in their native language, but your response will always be in English

[rancid shoal]

okay , so for example if my discord app on my system is polish it will show the command desc and name as polish but response will stay as english...

[sharp ginkgo]

ChatInputCommandInteraction#locale discord.js@14.19.3
The locale of the user who invoked this interaction

[topaz bluff]

You can use this to update your reply based on their locale

[steel yacht]

I get it, that's the variable type to provide the permission, but what's the actual bit field value for "manage permissions" ? It's not documented in PermissionFlagsBits

[trim basin]

can help me please for my dashboard?
https://discord.com/channels/222078108977594368/1382390913522729030

[topaz bluff]

That looks more like a Discord API question, not a DiscordJS question

#useful-servers

[trim basin]

oh sorry

but ty

[worthy drift]

There is none

[steel yacht]

So adding this channel permission overwrite to a role is not possible from a bot ?

[topaz bluff]

A channel override and a role permission aren't the same thing. You are asking to do something impossible

Either add ManagePermissions to every channel manually, or find a role permission that fits your need

[steel yacht]

The Discord client allows giving a channel override to a role, that's what I'm trying to do from a bot, specifically the "manage permissions" override

[topaz bluff]

#djs-help-v14 message

#djs-help-v14 message

[steel yacht]

But again, I cannot find the "manage permissions" override in this doc

[topaz bluff]

The Docs I sent you was for PermissionFlagBits which is role permissions. PermissionBitField is used for channel overrides

[tawdry hull]

I have followed the guide on the discord.js website, I am having trouble getting my slash commands to appear in my server

[steel yacht]

The type of PermissionBitField is :

export class PermissionsBitField extends BitField<PermissionsString, bigint>
```The type of `PermissionsString` is :
```ts
export type PermissionsString = keyof typeof PermissionFlagsBits;
```What am I missing ?

[topaz bluff]

1. Have you restarted your client? (Ctrl+R)
2. Are you sure your deploy script worked correctly?

[worthy drift]

try ManageRoles

[tawdry hull]

I have restarted multiple times, and I there is no errors

I can send the code?

[topaz bluff]

Sure. Send the code

[tawdry hull]

const { REST, Routes } = require('discord.js');
const { clientId, guildId, token } = require('./config.json');
const fs = require('node:fs');
const path = require('node:path');

const commands = [];
// Grab all the command folders from the commands directory you created earlier
const foldersPath = path.join(__dirname, 'commands');
const commandFolders = fs.readdirSync(foldersPath);

for (const folder of commandFolders) {
    // Grab all the command files from the commands directory you created earlier
    const commandsPath = path.join(foldersPath, folder);
    const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync(commandsPath).filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
    // Grab the SlashCommandBuilder#toJSON() output of each command's data for deployment
    for (const file of commandFiles) {
        const filePath = path.join(commandsPath, file);
        const command = require(filePath);
        if ('data' in command && 'execute' in command) {
            commands.push(command.data.toJSON());
        } else {
            console.log(`[WARNING] The command at ${filePath} is missing a required "data" or "execute" property.`);
        }
    }
}

// Construct and prepare an instance of the REST module
const rest = new REST().setToken(token);

// and deploy your commands!
(async () => {
    try {
        console.log(`Started refreshing ${commands.length} application (/) commands.`);

        // The put method is used to fully refresh all commands in the guild with the current set
        const data = await rest.put(
            Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId),
            { body: commands },
        );

        console.log(`Successfully reloaded ${data.length} application (/) commands.`);
    } catch (error) {
        // And of course, make sure you catch and log any errors!
        console.error(error);
    }
})();```

[worthy drift]

Is the bot online?

[tawdry hull]

yes

[topaz bluff]

applicationGuildCommands

Are you sure you're using the correct guildID?

[tawdry hull]

I can check again,

its the server id correct, when u right click on it?

[worthy drift]

Yes

[tawdry hull]

yes, then its correct

[topaz bluff]

Yes

Or you can just do applicationCommands which will deploy globally. For all servers (and user DMs)

[tawdry hull]

?

[topaz bluff]

Yes

Unless either of us made a typo, I'm on mobile

[tawdry hull]

nope not working

[worthy drift]

Maybe its the command not the command handler

[tawdry hull]

const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('ping')
        .setDescription('Replies with Pong!'),
    async execute(interaction) {
        await interaction.reply('Pong!');
    },
};```

[worthy drift]

Does it log „successfully reloaded…“?

[tawdry hull]

wdym

[worthy drift]

When you run the bot, does it log this command reload thing you call after calling rest.put()

[worthy drift]

Ahh, aight. So it doesnt

Can i see your main file?
Or in short, do you call/load your command handler somewhere somehow?

Because it doesnt really look like you do to me

[steel trail]

You need to actually run the deployment script. Not your main file

It's a separate script for good reason

[tawdry hull]

so what should I do instead?

[tawdry hull]

the index.js?

[worthy drift]

Run the file you shared with node filename.js

[steel yacht]

A permission overwrite doesn't have an ID ?

[worthy drift]

Always did it in one 🥴
Running my bot always reloads the commands

[tawdry hull]

Is there a way I can make it eaiser?

[worthy drift]

Depends on how often you reload the commands. You could get rate limited

[tawdry hull]

ah, ill keep it as that for now but it is working!

[steel trail]

Yesn't. It's associated to the role or user id it applies to

[steel yacht]

Then how do I check whether a role has permission overwrites in a channel, then create or update depending on that ?

Basically I see there's an upsert method but private, so how do I replicate an upsert behavior ?

[sharp ginkgo]

PermissionOverwriteManager#create() discord.js@14.19.3
Creates permission overwrites for a user or role in this channel, or replaces them if already present.

// Create or Replace permission overwrites for a message author
message.channel.permissionOverwrites.create(message.author, {
  SendMessages: false
})
  .then(channel => console.log(channel.permissionOverwrites.cache.get(message.author.id)))
  .catch(console.error);

[steel yacht]

Oh so it does "upsert"

[steel trail]

If you want to only change a single permission on top of what might already be there: get from cache by id and if it exists add your change with edit

[sharp ginkgo]

PermissionOverwriteManager#edit() discord.js@14.19.3
Edits permission overwrites for a user or role in this channel, or creates an entry if not already present.

// Edit or Create permission overwrites for a message author
message.channel.permissionOverwrites.edit(message.author, {
  SendMessages: false
})
  .then(channel => console.log(channel.permissionOverwrites.cache.get(message.author.id)))
  .catch(console.error);

[steel yacht]

So partial upsert

[steel trail]

This would be upsert rather, create is insertOrReplace

[steel yacht]

Hmm, I see, thanks

[tawdry hull]

is it possible, for buttons to only be seen by people with a certain role?

[wary coral]

no, if the user can see the message they can use the button

[tawdry hull]

alright,ty

[vital barn]

no

the most you can do is set a min and max length when building

[lavish cedar]

How can I make my own using discord.js?

[steel trail]

Your own what?

[lavish cedar]

My bot own server

[polar karma]

bots can't make guilds any more due to a recent change

[steel trail]

That guild will soon automatically be transferred to the bot owner (July 15th)

[lavish cedar]

Thanks for reminding me 🤦‍♂️ my bad

[tardy sable]

question. in mod view u can see a users total messages etc, is it possible to get this data through api?

[polar karma]

no

[vivid gorge]

components v2 supports cotainers? (like can i put buttons in the top or middle of embend and put other text under them)

[wary coral]

yes, you can add an action row to a container

[worthy drift]

You can try yourself at discord.builders with components v2

[vivid gorge]

this is dope thx

[vivid gorge]

thx

[crimson gale]

to not confuse others and yourself i'd recommend not using "embed" to describe components
the two concepts are quite disjunct from each other - despite some visual similarities

[shadow tartan]

Is this yet possible in D.JS v14 or v15? Just seen it on JDA :<

[crimson gale]

yes

[shadow tartan]

Oh, dope, what is that called? So I can find the docs

[crimson gale]

components

image gallery followed by a ton of sections with a button accessoire then closing out with an action row containing 3 buttons

[shadow tartan]

Very interesting, will look more into it! Thank you.

[torn orchid]

how do you get the buttons like too right or on the bottom?

[loud plinth]

Is there anyway to force a bot to disconnect? (Basically, when he stops running, he stays online for a few minutes, I would like him to be immediatly offline.)

[polar karma]

process.exit() will stop it immediately, but can't do anything about the bot showing as online in discord

[sharp ginkgo]

Client#destroy() discord.js@14.19.3
Logs out, terminates the connection to Discord, and destroys the client.

[rose tangle]

section with a button accessory, and an action row, respectively

[unique shoal]

@loud plinth you can try this

[loud plinth]

Thanks.

[pliant snow]

How can I view new user tags through the bot?

[polar karma]

not documented yet, so only through rest requests

[pliant snow]

How can I do this through the rest api then?

[sharp ginkgo]

discord.js does not support features until they are officially documented.
While there might be a way for these features to work, it can change at any time without any notice

[hallow mesa]

Is there a way to get the raw API object for a MessageContextMenuCommandInteraction's target message through the interactionCreate event? Or raw API messages in general without fetching them through REST?

I have a command to look at API data for messages, but I'd like to also see the undocumented properties that djs is stripping out. For messages my bot can access I'm able to fetch the raw message again through Client.rest and the channelMessages Route, but I don't think there's a way to re-fetch an interaction so for other servers I only have the djs Message object.

I figure I can set up a listener for the raw INTERACTION_CREATE event and get it from there, but I'd prefer not to unless that's the only solution.

[rose tangle]

you can fetch interaction replies, that's what fetchReply does

and no, there isn't a way to access the raw object

so you pretty much listed the only two options, either listen to raw or raw fetch

alternatively if you care much about raw data you can use /core

but depending in your bot that can be a medium or a big refactor

[hallow mesa]

Ah that's what I figured. Was just hoping it was easily accessible. This was a feature I was hoping to expand on but it's not worth the effort of switching to core since I do use caches quite a bit

I'll look into how much of a pain it would be to have one command run off the raw event but it might be easier to just check the console when I need to lol

[unique shoal]

Im curious why you need raw data?

We only strip out undocumented items as far as I know

Because theyre not mapped to the structure

[hallow mesa]

Just curious to check out undocumented features when they get added

[unique shoal]

Fair enough

[rose tangle]

why not just the raw fetch?

[hallow mesa]

Is there a way to fetch a raw interaction? Not my reply but the one received by INTERACTION_CREATE?

[rose tangle]

ah, you want the interaction itself

[hallow mesa]

Yeah

[rose tangle]

I misunderstood, thought you wanted the reply

yeah, can't fetch that

[hallow mesa]

All good. It was a wordy request. For messages my bot can access I do re-fetch the target message for some extra info

[red coral]

ManageServer, is that a permission a GuildMember can have? Or is that only something on a role. If that makes any sense whatsoever

[rose tangle]

members and roles share the same permission enum

[red coral]

    permissions: {
        userPermissions: ["Administrator"],
        botPermissions: []
    },

Where permissions is

type permissions = {
    userPermissions: PermissionResolvable[],
    botPermissions: PermissionResolvable[]
}

Am i using the wrong one? ManageServer doesn't come up

[loud quartz]

Because it's ManageGuild

Pretty sure

[red coral]

Ah, that comes up. Gonna assume they are the same then ofc?

[loud quartz]

It's guild

Server is only the "human" name for a guild

Api calls them guilds

So does d.js

Guilds intent, GuildMember, message.guild

Etc

[red coral]

The app says the permission is ManageServer 😭, ughrr this is annoying. It's fine though, since ig most people think of it as a server not a guild (maybe?)

[loud quartz]

Again

Human facing name for api's guild is server

[red coral]

Yh 🙏, thanks though

[pliant snow]

Events.Raw
if (packet.t !== 'PRESENCE_UPDATE') return
you can get it here

[polar karma]

Which is also undocumented

[shadow tartan]

How is this part done?
I did content + button next to it - but no clue how to add a picture, name, and small description similar to this. :<

Documentation doesn't seem to have much on it either

[topaz bluff]

IIRC, the image is actually just 4 emojis and the rest is just normal text

[elfin scroll]

yea, it was 1 image at first then later it was changed to 4 emojis
@shadow tartan if you haven't seen it yet they posted the video recording of that stream, might make it easier to follow along how they built and modified that demo app

[shadow tartan]

Ah, interesting, definitely have to look into that sometime then xD
Thank you both of you!

[elfin scroll]

I see you aren't in the Discord Developers server, the link to the video is in their server-news channel, link to the server is in #useful-servers

[lost gulch]

not too versed in programming yet but is there any reason why i can't send v2 components/containers via channel.send?

library doesnt support it but unsure why

[topaz bluff]

You can. Just make sure you're supplying the IsComponentsV2 flag

Can you show your code and the error you're getting?

[shadow tartan]

Found it 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVeIqO0pGE4

[lost gulch]

oh! had no idea. error:

0|index    | DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body
0|index    | components[0][UNION_TYPE_CHOICES]: Value of field "type" must be one of (1,).

[loud quartz]

You aren't passing the components v2 flag

[lost gulch]

is there somewhere in the docs i can read about it

tried passing it after you guys told me about it but still getting an error

[loud quartz]

#how-to-get-help

[sharp ginkgo]

MessageFlags#IsComponentsV2 discord.js@14.19.3
This flag is required to use new components

[lost gulch]

thanks dude

[loud quartz]

Wha

I linked to the channel because you never showed your code or how you tried passing it

Oh, they already left. Nevermind.

[topaz bluff]

You can't fix stupid

[tawdry hull]

for some reason my embeds keep sending twice?

[topaz bluff]

Are you doing Channel#send and if you are, is there multiple processes of your bot running?

(I don't think it would happen if using interactions, since that would cause "unknown interaction" issues rather than double sending)

[tawdry hull]

possibly? how do I check that

[topaz bluff]

Stop your local process and see if commands still execute

[tawdry hull]

im kinda new to this, how would I stop them

[topaz bluff]

In your terminal, Ctrl+C force stops any current process

[tawdry hull]

and js wait for it to go offline?

[topaz bluff]

Yes. If doesn't, then that you're answer. The bot is running somewhere still

[tawdry hull]

ok it went offline, so now start it back up with the node .

ok, i think that fixed it do i need to turn it off every time if i wanna update somthing?

[topaz bluff]

Correct

So that means my guess was incorrect. Can you share your code from the "double sending" embed?

[shadow tartan]

Only works on V15, right? Or does it work on the latest version of V14 as well?

[topaz bluff]

Yes. You need to restart the process for any code changes to go into effect

[tawdry hull]

alrigty,

[topaz bluff]

v14 fully supports all documented API features

v15 is just a "dev" version and has no current plans to launch as there's no need for it at this time

[tawdry hull]

is there also help for putting a bot on hosting? it may be confusing i hear

[shadow tartan]

Gotya

[topaz bluff]

Depends on the host. Is it a console or a full VPS. But that's not really a DJS question. You can ask in #1081585952654360687 if you have issues

[tawdry hull]

im not sure ig? i js want my bot to be on full time

[topaz bluff]

There's some recommended providers in #resources

There's 2 major types of hosts. A process host (like Linode) that simply just runs your bot program for you, you might get some other stuff like a small amount of storage but you don't typically get much more than just a console output. Then there's a VPS (virtual private server) which is a full desktop environment which is just like a normal computer that you have on all the time

[tawdry hull]

i think i just need the one that runs it for me, cause i just want it to be up so like we can use it for moderation and such

[rain forum]

hi
is channel.permissionOverwrites.edit
is work in last update

[zenith violet]

yes

[upbeat cedar]

Good day, I wanted to know if it is possible to transmit sound to the sound panel via a button. Example: I press a button in the bot and the sound panel plays.

[snow onyx]

no

[upbeat cedar]

then another question, is it possible to somehow get bots to the user in which guild he is without using a selfbot

[upbeat cedar]

thanks for the answer

[upbeat cedar]

I need to get the guild tag specifically

[snow onyx]

Can you please elaborate on your question?
Are you trying to get all servers the user is in where your bot is also in?
Or are you just trying to get the user's tag?

[upbeat cedar]

trying to get user tag

[snow onyx]

Thats an undocumented feature, you would need to fetch the user manually through the REST API to get the tag.

[sharp ginkgo]

Client#rest discord.js@14.19.3
The REST manager of the client

REST#get() discord.js@14.19.3
Runs a get request from the api

[upbeat cedar]

thanks for the answer

[fiery idol]

May I ask if awaitMessageComponent for interact is better or filter interaction from event fired is better when compare on huge amount of number await interaction from user . Sometime button_id may not included enough all data so I confuse about 2 wait of implement.

• I understand that await... just setTimeout base on filter of event fired. I just don't know if it really a notice delay if huge number of user and server process

[unique shoal]

The answer is really depending on what sort of workflow you need

await is better suited to a situation where you're looking for a single button response on a specific message, like a Confirm button on a ban or something

Using filtering on an interactionCreate listener is better suited to multiple permanent buttons that you need to listen to repeatedly

[night kindle]

what exactly is a Mentionable option in SlashCommandBuilder#addMentionableOption?

[zenith violet]

anything mentionable, roles, channels, members, etc

[night kindle]

also emojis?

[zenith violet]

No

[night kindle]

sad

[tacit pulsar]

same, is this a known issue?

[steel trail]

NASA did block discord URLs from accessing their image URLs (possibly because there were too many requests or something)

[tacit pulsar]

Oh not NASA specific, any link I put in there never loads:

const __MEDIA_LINKS = new MediaGalleryBuilder()
for (let j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
  if (!args[j].value.includes('.com/')) continue;
  __MEDIA_LINKS.addItems(new MediaGalleryItemBuilder()
    .setURL(args[j].value)
  )
}

where args is any link i provide

tested w/ https:// imgur.com/gallery/baby-flamingo-tap-dancing-MfRDjx0

loads infinitely, then times out

[steel trail]

That's not an image URL. You'd need the actual image, not a website containing the image

[tacit pulsar]

lame, discord embeds it just fine if it's sent as a message

[topaz bluff]

Because a website url contains data to form images into embeds

https://discord.com/developers/embeds?url=https%253A%252F%252Fimgur.com%252Fgallery%252Fbaby-flamingo-tap-dancing-MfRDjx0

[leaden shuttle]

is there a djs function to escape new lines?

[vague echo]

The issue was in fetching the image NASA sends the image correctly, you working on a space related bot?

[fading girder]

can I use discord timestamps like <t:${now}:D> in embed title? will it display?

[vital barn]

yes

[vital barn]

do you mean markdown?

[leaden shuttle]

no, new lines

[topaz bluff]

DiscordJS only really has formatter functions for Discord Markdown

What new line characters are you trying to remove? Are they from an API or user input?

[leaden shuttle]

user input- \n

[topaz bluff]

You'll probably need to create your own formatter/sanitizer

[grizzled venture]

Question: if I have an embed that the bot sent with a button, and 24 hours passes by after the embed was sent. Then a community member presses that button. Will the button work?

[coarse storm]

How to send the new containers through a webhook?

[steel trail]

yes

[topaz bluff]

Same as a normal message plus withComponents: true

[grizzled venture]

alright thanks

[coarse storm]

and to send the container itself as part of a components property?

[topaz bluff]

Yes

[grizzled venture]

Can someone take a look at #1382719473898750122

I am sorry if its against the rules to ask for it, but I am in a big hurry and I need a response time ASAP.

[coarse storm]

Is it the same with containers? I am receiving an error.

[wary coral]

Did you add withComponents: true?

[coarse storm]

This is the error

The first component is a text builder, and the second is a container

[wary coral]

could you share your code? specifically the send line

[coarse storm]

let message;
if (element.alert_webhook && element.id !== config.guildID) {
  const webhook = await client.fetchWebhook(element.alert_webhook);
  console.log(components)
  if (webhook)
    message = webhook.send({ components: components, files: attachments ?? undefined, withComponents: true });
  }
if (!message) {
  message = channel.send({/*embeds: embeds,*/ components: components, files: attachments ?? undefined, flags: MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2});
}

This is the send lines. Through the bot it is sent as expected

[wary coral]

you need to add the flag to the webhook message. it needs both withComponents and MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2

[jaunty urchin]

hello i have weird problem my bot working in server vps and other server not working what is the problem?

[topaz bluff]

Gotta be more specific than "not working"

[jaunty urchin]

mean in vps server is working and the command working but in other vps server not working and the command

[topaz bluff]

Not working...how

Are you getting an error in your terminal? Is the client giving any errors?

[jaunty urchin]

no error in the consol its showing me online

[steel trail]

then what is "not working". we're unable to help if you don't give more information on your issue

[topaz bluff]

Without any more information, I can't really offer any help.... It could be anything

[jaunty urchin]

there is no error in the consol that i can undrstand where is the issue

[steel trail]

what makes you say there is an issue at all then?

[jaunty urchin]

because there is the same file but i use in different vps server one server is working and the other server is not

[jaunty urchin]

there is no error

[steel trail]

you keep saying it is "not working" without saying what is not working. unless you actually state your issue we're done here

[jaunty urchin]

the command not working

[topaz bluff]

Not working is meaningless. If you can't show any errors anywhere, then your guess is as good as ours

[coarse storm]

Let's say I have a container with an action row with two buttons in it. does it count as 4 components?

[steel trail]

or at least say what you do, what you expect to happen and what happens instead

[steel trail]

yes

[topaz bluff]

I believe so

[coarse storm]

And the limit is 30 components in one message, correct?

[loud quartz]

#discord-dev-news message

[jaunty urchin]

vps server i use it the command is working in other server the command not working

[loud quartz]

You're going in circles

You already said it works in one place, and doesn't in the other

What you aren't saying is what is happening that makes you say it's not working

[desert sleet]

Is there any place I can have proof read my code? I'm new to using java script and I think it should work however, with the hourish wait for commands to go global, it would be nice to be able to have help proofreading it

[loud quartz]

There has not been an hour wait for global commands to propagate for several years now

Plus

Guild commands exist too, if you want to test them

There is no better proofreader of js than node

[desert sleet]

Alrighty, Ill try it out! Also, thanks for letting me know about not having to wait, I was told that I would have to so I just assumed

[loud quartz]

Ok so

There is a difference between global and guild commands in context of deploying changes/new commands

but it boils down to how those new commands are delivered to your discord

[desert sleet]

Mhm. Mine has to work in DMs and thus it has to be global to my understanding

[loud quartz]

not quite

ah, well, sure

it has to be global, was thinking of something else

but

they are deployed and available immediately

what isn't there immediately, is your discord knowing that the global stuff changed

so you might still want to ctrl+r to have it load new commands

[desert sleet]

hmm ok

[loud quartz]

that's not the case for guild commands, but indeed that won't do for dms

[desert sleet]

So all I need to do is get a host for my code, run it, proofread it, go from there

[topaz bluff]

Depending on the size of your bot, your commands (even global commands) should load practically instantly. You just have to reload your client for them to show up (Ctrl+R)

[steel trail]

the size of the bot is irrelevant for that

[desert sleet]

It's fine lol, I got they meant :)

[misty cave]

Hi, I've been having issues with RAM because of discord.js's cache, is there a way to make discord.js cache using redis?

[wary coral]

I am not sure, but what intents are you using? removing unused intents can lower ram usage

[misty cave]

I'm using the two other intents except the message content intent

[topaz bluff]

(roughly) how many servers are you in, how many shards are you running, and what is your memory usage

Because, no I don't believe you can use Redis for the DJS cache...you can however sweep the cache to help clean it to

[misty swift]

where is the guide for componets v2

[misty cave]

900 guilds, 5 shards (I think, I don't remember).

Memory usage is above average i go on some of my bots (20 servers)

More than 300MB

[topaz bluff]

Here's the WIP guide page
https://deploy-preview-1620--discordjs-guide.netlify.app/

[misty cave]

They could prob add custom cache to the main lib other than we needing to use @discordjs/core to actually implement redis :/

Just saw a forum post saying I would need to use @discordjs/core

[steel trail]

There are more than three intents. What are all intents you use (in client options)?

[misty swift]

thanks

[steel trail]

Will happen in a new version, not possible in current state since it needs cache to be async, currently all cache operations are sync

Best way to reduce RAM load is limiting the intents to only those you actually need

[thin knoll]

I get an unknown interaction error and I couldn't find a solution.

[sharp ginkgo]

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

[topaz bluff]

Start here

[thin knoll]

I can post the code if you can fix it.

[topaz bluff]

Yes you can

[thin knoll]

I tried all of them but there was no solution

[gray breach]

C:\Users\tribhuvan\Desktop\Bet Buddies>npm i discord.js
[..................] - idealTree:Bet Buddies: sill idealTree buildDeps```

huh?

[zenith thistle]

https://status.npmjs.org/#

[gray breach]

ohk

[topaz bluff]

There's currently a widespread online outage. I'm guessing Cloudflare

[zenith thistle]

not just npm?

[topaz bluff]

https://discordstatus.com/

[zenith thistle]

Cloudflare R2 maybe ?

[thin knoll]

I need it so much, can you help me please?

[topaz bluff]

Going to also need an error...and that file is almost certainly not the problem. Your command handler is likely the one at fault

You're also welcome to ask for help, no guarantee we are able to, or even willing to find your solution.

[thin knoll]

so sad

[harsh elm]

can someone help me?

[bleak owl]

that is not discord.js related. #1081585952654360687

[harsh elm]

okay sir

[eternal basin]

When does the API usually come back online? I need an approximate or typical time?

[toxic moat]

https://discordstatus.com/

[zenith violet]

there is no approximate

there never is

if there was it wouldnt be an outage but rather planned downtime

[rose tangle]

and this isn't the right place to ask either way

[crimson jetty]

ok so, I already added my bot to my server, and one command works perfectly, but I added a second one, saved the code, used the "node index.js" and "nodemon" on the terminal but the 2nd command doesn't work

it doesn't even show, does someone know?

[bleak owl]

can you be more specific on "does not work"

[crimson jetty]

it's a slash command, well, when I write "/" on the discord chat, it shows the 1st command, but no the 2nd

[bleak owl]

did you register it?

[crimson jetty]

node deploy-commands.js? Yeah

[bleak owl]

did you restart your discord app?

[crimson jetty]

ok, didn't do that one, how do I restart it?

like, restart the token?

[bleak owl]

no, your actual discord app like the one you use to message here

[crimson jetty]

ohhh

[crimson jetty]

ok, it works now, it was as simply as that, thanks mate

[bleak owl]

you're welcome

sometimes the cache doesn't update so restarting your app helps

[misty swift]

I just can't seem to get it to work

[sharp ginkgo]

To share long code snippets, use a service like gist, sourcebin, pastebin, or similar instead of posting them as large code blocks or files.

[zenith violet]

and define doesnt work

[misty swift]

wdym?

[bleak owl]

what is the current issue you are having?

[zenith violet]

what do you mean by cant get it to work

to me that means your bot is not even running

[misty swift]

it is

[zenith violet]

then define what exactly doesnt work

what errors do you get

[vast falcon]

hosting discord.js/website locally should be enough to get docs working? official online version is having big issues rn due to cloudflare dying

[zenith violet]

there we go

sections require an accessory

whether that be a button or thumbnail

[misty swift]

https://pastebin.com/embed_js/GnWzeEjw

[rose tangle]

you could just look at the dts file though?

should be much simpler than hosting the docs locally

[steel trail]

Good luck doing that while npm is down. Unless you had a working clone of the monorepo before already

[misty swift]

I added a thumbnail

[vast falcon]

didn't even think about it, ehhh, thanks

[zenith violet]

not on all sections

[misty swift]

ooh?

[zenith violet]

line 44

[vast falcon]

with stuff separated as much as I have, no auto type-resolving on JS, meaning I have to find through d.ts manually anyway, so for that browser version seems easier :D but yea, with no npm won't be able to anyway, thanks for help

[misty swift]

what should I do there

[zenith violet]

add an accessory

[misty swift]

cause this new stuff confuses me

[zenith violet]

.

[misty swift]

isn't there text there?

[zenith violet]

thats not an accessory

[misty swift]

so it needs a button or something like that?

[zenith violet]

yes

[zenith violet]

.

[misty swift]

what should I do if I don't want a button there

[zenith violet]

dont use a section

just add text directly to the container

[misty swift]

alr

one sec

[misty swift]

just this:

.addTextDisplayComponents(text => text.setContent('*Select a ticket type*'))

[zenith violet]

yes, have you tried

yes

yk where?

[zenith violet]

thats up to you to figure out

did you actually delete the section you replaced with top level text

[misty swift]

I got the error fixed but now it says I used embed somewhere but I checked and I don't see it

[rose tangle]

are you editing a message?

[misty swift]

yes

embed: null I got to add ig?

[rose tangle]

embeds: []

since properties that aren't sent in the edit are kept

so you're trying to add the components, but keep the embeds, which isn't possible

[misty swift]

thanks, let's see now

[rose tangle]

need to explicitly set the embeds as empty

[misty swift]

I made it:

message.edit({
                    embeds: [],
    components: [container.toJSON()],
    flags: MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2
  })

but I still get the same error???

[rose tangle]

which is?

also you don't need to explicitly serialize the container

you can pass it directly

but it's the same thing

[misty swift]

I changed nothing and now it's fixed lol, maybe it didn't save properly haha

[misty swift]

Thank you so much for your help and you too @zenith violet!

[versed sequoia]

can anyone help ?
The property 'addComponents' not exist on type 'ActionRowBuilder<ButtonBuilder>'.

[topaz bluff]

Can you show your code?

[versed sequoia]

sure

    "@discordjs/builders": "^1.11.2",
    "@discordjs/rest": "^2.5.0",
    "@discordjs/util": "^1.1.1",
    "discord.js": "14.19.3",```

[sharp ginkgo]

discord.js includes multiple sub-packages, installing these separately can mess with internal code:

npm uninstall discord-api-types @discordjs/rest @discordjs/builders
yarn remove discord-api-types @discordjs/rest @discordjs/builders
pnpm remove discord-api-types @discordjs/rest @discordjs/builders

[versed sequoia]

okay okay i catch so to install all at the same?

i removed and reinstaled but eq

    "@discordjs/builders": "^1.11.2",
    "@discordjs/rest": "^2.5.0",
    "@discordjs/util": "^1.1.1",
    "discord.js": "^14.19.3",```

the versions are the same

[rose tangle]

the tag doesn't tell you to install them

[versed sequoia]

so?

[rose tangle]

read it

notice how the subcommands say uninstall and remove

not install

[versed sequoia]

okay now understand

[topaz bluff]

Installing the subpackages separately when you also have discord.js installed means you're likely to cause data structure mismatches as the format of the data might have changed between versions

[versed sequoia]

ok ok

[empty spear]

If I have a Message that I got from a MessageContextMenuCommandInteraction, how would I go about reading the content of that message if it was forwarded?

targetMessage.content just returns ''

I am trying to parse information from the text of a message by right clicking on it, and it's working fine for normal messages but I haven't been able to get it working for messages that were forwarded.

[red coral]

interaction.channel can be null, why is that?

[topaz bluff]

Do you have the MessageContent intent?

I'm not 100% certain if even with that, if you are able to get the content of a forwarded message m

[empty spear]

Yes. And I am able to get the content of normal messages

[topaz bluff]

Do you specifically have the MessageContent intent, rather than GuildMessages

[empty spear]

Yes. It's a user installed app, not a guild installed app, as well

[topaz bluff]

Oh that's probably why. User apps need to reference messages directly to receive their content

[empty spear]

I tried using fetchReference on the message but that returned an error as well, presumably because the bot isn't installed on the server. I didn't really expect that one to work.

I suppose the workaround is going to the origin of the message, as long as I have permission to view it. I was hoping that wouldn't be necessary but oh well.

Thanks for trying to help .

[verbal cave]

Can't I edit a container?

[topaz bluff]

You could try asking in the dapi server for more questions about user installed apps

[topaz bluff]

Yes you can, just like any other message. You just have to rebuild the container data to edit it (same as embeds)

[red coral]

I swear djs has a helper method to resolve colours, but i can't find it...

ok nvm it is resolveColor, I just couldn't see it coming up on the imports..

Can a section have more than one button accessory?

[bleak owl]

i’m pretty sure, yes

unless i’m mistaken which if i am, i’m sorry

[trail fog]

no worries

[wary coral]

You can only have one accessory(IE button) per section

[main mason]

Is it possible for a bot to know which user deleted a message (through the Events.messageDelete event)?

[gleaming horizon]

No, you'll have to check audit log https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/audit-logs.html#who-deleted-a-message

[main mason]

alright, thanks!

[unique shoal]

Looks more like missing permissions to either get or create a webhook

Since there's no webhook id or token that would be required to send to one

How might I be able to have an AI run a command on my discord bot?

[shadow harness]

Easy way to get the message that came before a message in a channel? I have the Message object of one, need the one before it

[unique shoal]

What sort of command are we talking? You'd have to provide an interface for it to execute functions

[unique shoal]

You can't decipher that there are too many default values?

[shadow harness]

Use case is that I put some nicely formatted info in a message that comes before an extremely barebones poll, and need that info when the poll closes

[unique shoal]

You set the max selections to less than the number of defaults

[clear oar]

oh? thanks

[unique shoal]

channel.messages.fetch using the before and limit options

[bronze gorge]

Just any ordinary slash command. I'm using some random model I found on groqcloud which I've turned into a chat bot thing, I was hoping it could also run commands if I told it to.

[shadow harness]

Thanks mate salute

[clear oar]

@unique shoal is it vencord btw?

[vital barn]

it is not

[rose tangle]

bots cannot run other bot's slash commands

[rose tangle]

why ping monbrey?

[clear oar]

oops idk

[bronze gorge]

Not other bots, have a bot run it's own command, like commandkit's ai system

[rose tangle]

I have no idea how that works

[unique shoal]

Not really, since they're built for user-interaction with the Discord UI

[rose tangle]

but you can make your own code run its own functions if that's what you're asking

[unique shoal]

what the fuck is vencord?

[unique shoal]

You can execute bot functions however you like but there wont be an interaction to reply it

[clear oar]

you can make a command that sends and receive AI reply from AI provider's API if that's what you want

how to interaction.ignore() to ignore an interaction?

[unique shoal]

you dont

respond to the user so they know it was successful

[clear oar]

btw should the function in filter: (...) => {...} return true or false so the interaction is ignored?

[unique shoal]

The filter on a collector?

[clear oar]

yes

[unique shoal]

true will collect it for response, false will ignore it

[clear oar]

ok thx

btw i want to somehow make the collect thingy to display "..." until collection end instead of replying with "InTErActION fAiLED"

i.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({
    time: 15000,
    componentType: ComponentType.UserSelect,
    filter: (i) => {i.user.id == m.author.id && i.customId == "dropdown"},
    max: 1
}).on("collect", interaction => {
    // interaction.deferReply() // not workin.
}).on('end', (i2) => {
    if(i2.size < 1) return;
    m.channel.send(i2.first()?.users?.first()?.username)
    i.reply({content: "Success", flags: MessageFlags.Ephemeral})
})

your filter doesn't return anything

since it's wrapped in {} it requires an actual return <something>

OoOoO thanks

👀 that simple thing i ignored..

[rare coral]

In the announcement post for ^14.9.0, the entire container is highlighted due to the everyone tag, but when I try to replicate it using <@&roleid> it doesn't highlight/ping on my end, and I cannot find anything on the api/searching regarding it. I know it's probably something super simple I'm overlooking - just figured I'd pop in here to see if anyone had a quick answer.

[clear oar]

how to undefer deferred thing? i want to make my thing "thinking" until the collection end

[rose tangle]

check your allowedMentions in your client constructor

[rose tangle]

you mean how to edit the thinking message?

if so, editReply

[clear oar]

oh

what's the difference between update and reply thingy?

[rose tangle]

one updates the message, other replies

[rare coral]

Cheers. I knew I was missing something simple.

[hollow crag]

hello why is using strings like '0099FF' as the embed color no longer supported?

[stable sun]

The function to resolve colors only existed in d.js, not the builders subpackage. D.js added it on. You can call resolveColor("#rrggbb") if you still want to do it

[stable sun]

No

That’s only required to fetch all members of a Guild

hey guys, quick question, so i'm brushing up on my js skills, and it is telling me about web or language, which one is more suitable?

[rose tangle]

"web or language"?

you mean web (frontend) or server (backend)?

also are you asking for learning to make djs bots?

because it isn't a djs related question but I'm trying to see the relation

[sharp ginkgo]

ye

you'll have to focus on the server side

pretty much they meant "that javascript that runs on web or node.js"

[snow onyx]

components v2 are not embeds

setTimestamp for embeds still exists

Where i need to go? https://discord.com/channels/222078108977594368/1081585952654360687 here?

[rose tangle]

they didn't mention node though, they said "web or language", hence my question

[clear oar]

what does this mean

[clear oar]

"language" here they use is confusing, either they mean "that javascript that runs on web", and i kind of think the rest of it is "that javascript that power console.log("bye world")"

[steel trail]

None of this is djs related, so keep it to #1081585952654360687 or #archive-offtopic

[misty swift]

How do you make sure a mention in an embed (V2) doesn't actually cause a mention?

[sharp ginkgo]

tag suggestion for @misty swift:
You can control which entities receive notifications via the allowedMentions option. You can:

• Set a default on the client
• Set for a specific message
• Use the repliedUser key to disable in-line reply mentions

{ ..., allowedMentions: { parse: ["users", "roles"] } }

[haughty breach]

if bot has custom emojis in buttons or components, and channel disallows external emojis, will that prevent message from sending, throwing Missing Permissions?

[steel trail]

no, the emoji will simply show as :name: instead of as the actual emoji

if we're talking guild emoji. application emojis are not restricted by that permission

[haughty breach]

but in buttons, will it just not show it? or it ignores perms there

[empty cradle]

Hi! does anyone have a guide for components v2? because it seems there is no guide in guide website yet

or I need to interpret the discord.js docs by myself?

[steel trail]

there is a preview guide https://deploy-preview-1620--discordjs-guide.netlify.app/popular-topics/components-v2.html

[empty cradle]

ah, I see, thanks alot

haha, google detects this as fake

[steel trail]

well, it is a preview. not yet merged or released. so it kinda is

[crimson gale]

why are the images so blurry

[steel trail]

are they?

[crimson gale]

because they are stretched to fit the screen but they only show a small portion of a screen (the component) ic

[red coral]

I have a command with permissions that are required to use it, I defined them like "Administrator", I check then like this

if (userPerms.length) {
    if (!permissionCheck(message.member, userPerms)) {
        message.member.permissions.missing()
    }
}

const permissionCheck = (
    member: GuildMember,
    permissions: PermissionResolvable[]
) => member.permissions.any(permissions, true);

I see there's GuildMember#permissions#missing. How do I use that here to show the missing permissions? Missing takes bits: BitFieldResolvable<PermissionsString, bigint>. Do I need to construct a new bitfield?

[steel trail]

just remove the [], an array of Permission strings is PermissionResolvable in itself

[sharp ginkgo]

PermissionResolvable discord.js@14.19.3
Data that can be resolved to give a permission number. This can be:* A string (see Flags)* A permission number* An instance of PermissionsBitField* An Array of PermissionResolvable

[red coral]

Oh 💀 thanks 😭

[red coral]

To get the bot member it's guild.members.me. Is it null for things like user apps, no bot scope type thing? If it's null, is it safe to fetch it? Or just assume it's not available

[snow onyx]

assume its not available I think
if the guild is cached, the bot's member should be cached as well

[red coral]

Ok, thanks. Time to come up with some catchy message to tell the user they invited the bot wrong

[steel trail]

You can always try to fetch it. You won't have a Guild instance at all when no bot scope or user app

It'll realistically only be null if you limited GuildMemberManager cache

[red coral]

Which I won't be, and I won't be doing any user app stuff either. So is it still worth fetching it?

[steel trail]

If it would be null: sure. But that shouldn't ever happen then

[red coral]

Ok, I won't fetch it then

What happens when sharding if you try and fetch the bot's GuildMember? I heard with channel's i may add the channel to a shard the guild doesn't belong in or something?

[steel trail]

Can always do await guild.members.fetchMe() which will check cache like other fetches do too first

You shouldn't have the Guild to do that with in the first place

And if you do: you already fetched something wrongly

[red coral]

Is it worth it? Ig this is like fetching a channel when it should already be in the cache (text channels for example)

[steel trail]

Is what worth what?

You're running two conversations at once here

[red coral]

Is it worth calling .fetchMe? Since if it's null, fetching will most likely result in an error anyway. I wouldn't want to do an api request if it's most likely going to result in an error

[steel trail]

Fetching should never result in an error. Because if you have an actual Guild instance you have a bot user in there. Otherwise you shouldn't have a Guild instance in the first place

In other words: if it errors you found an error in your code

[red coral]

Ah, sorry yes I understand you now. I shall fetch then 🙏. Thanks a lot

I also have a question regarding sharding. shards: "auto" uses internal sharding? Does the guide cover benefits and drawbacks of using auto vs the other form of sharding? If not is it possible to have a very quick rundown?

[pliant root]

Hey so I seem to have an issue, but I don't know what's happening.

My bot randomly got a ConnectTimeoutError, so I assumed it was with the network of my host, then I got 3 lines of DOMException [AbortError.

I restarted my bot and it worked when I tested, but it's appearing offline to discord, and it isn't responding. There's nothing on my console. How do I debug this?

[red coral]

ConnectTimeout errors are network issues. Sometimes there's blips your end. Add the debug event, client.on("debug", console.log) and provide the logs.

It's possible that you hit a cloudflare ban however, if you get no logs

[pliant root]

I see, I'll take a look, thanks!

[tough folio]

hey does anyone know how to offline my bot

[red coral]

presence: {
status: "offline",
}

invisible* sorry

[tough folio]

i ran it like how do i stop it tho(that is what i meant)

[red coral]

ctrl + c

[tough folio]

does not help but okay

[wary coral]

your going to need to elaborate. stop your bot or the status displaying?

[steel trail]

It does if you do that in your console running it

[steel trail]

internal sharding is easier to setup. But it runs a single process for all shards. There comes a point where that won't be fast enough to handle all your guilds in sufficient time. That's where benefit of internal sharding ends

[red coral]

Has anyone done any kinda, not benchmarks, but is there a number of shards where that becomes a reasonable thing to switch to? Or is it just better to switch to the other form of sharding from the get go

Thanks as well

[steel trail]

About 10 shards (give or take)

[red coral]

Oh ok, that's actually a lot better then I was thinking. And these would run on worker threads which is a thread?

[steel trail]

They can, if you configure it to

Default behavior is no threads

[red coral]

And if they don't use worker threads, does it spawn a new process or something?

[steel trail]

Are we talking internal or traditional sharding now?

[red coral]

The one which isn't "auto", the one which doesn't run just in one process

[steel trail]

They use child processes or worker threads, yea

Internal sharding can run worker threads for the gateway connection of the shards too though, which is why I got confused

[red coral]

Oh sorry, my bad. Ok that's cool. Thanks for explaining, appreciate it

[tough folio]

stop the bot

[steel trail]

How do you run your bot in the first place? Because gwapes told you how to stop it if run from a console

[tough folio]

i did node index.js

and then idk how to stop it

[steel trail]

Then use ctrl+c in that same terminal you did node

[pliant root]

So it just happened again, the bot is offline, but nothing in the console (process is still running)

[CLIENT DEBUG]
[WS => Shard 0] Waiting for event ready for 15000ms

[red coral]

Maybe you just aren't getting any activity? It's still connected

In other words, how do you know it's offline. Just from discord?

[pliant root]

i've ran /help, and the bot is not responding

[red coral]

I'm not 100% on how to debug that. Someone else, like Qjuh if he's still lurking may know more

[pliant root]

When i initially start it, I am able to run commands, but i think after about 10 mins? maybe 15? it just goes offline

[steel trail]

Is the bot user offline?

[pliant root]

yeah

[steel trail]

How did you check?

[pliant root]

Member list

[tough folio]

I was trying to run /commands but it is not working(it does not show on the thing)

[steel trail]

And yet the heartbeats continue?

[pliant root]

no, i'm not getting any new heartbeats

[steel trail]

Is node even running then?

[topaz bluff]

Have you deployed your commands to discord?

[tough folio]

don't know how

[sharp ginkgo]

Creating Your Bot: Registering slash commands
read more

[tough folio]

ohhhhh, was gonna do step 3 in the guide

[topaz bluff]

You have to finish the guide before any of it will work

You can't stop halfway through. Because you need each part for them to work

[pliant root]

Yes, node is running. The bot was running perfectly fine before this, until i encountered a ConnectTimeoutError, followed with DOMException [Abort Error] 3 times. Before this was me getting Unknown Interaction and a few Invalid Form Body (i think because i was following up, and the reply was non-existent?). I restarted it, and i'm facing this issue where it works for the first 10 mins, and it dies after that

[steel trail]

Can you show those errors then? Your initial message here suggested the heartbeats were the last logs you got

[pliant root]

Now, yes. But the things that caused that started this (or at least i suspect) is that. I'll get the logs

[tough folio]

yeah following it step by step

[pliant root]

this was the initial error logs that caused my bot to be offline the first time

[red coral]

Then if you restart it works again for around 10 mins?

[pliant root]

yup!

but it doesn't send an error, the node process isn't terminated, but there doesn't seem to be any new heartbeats

it could be less than 10 mins tbh, i can't really time when it goes out

could this be a cloudflare ban?

[red coral]

They normally last a bit longer though to my knowledge. Simply restarting and waiting ~10 mins for it to stop again seems strange. Is this a vps? Shared ips?

[steel trail]

Cloudflare ban would cause your bot to not be able to login at all. This seems more like something in your network changed. What kind of server are you running this on?

[pliant root]

a VPS

I don't think it's a shared IP, but i'll try to contact my host to see if there's an issue

[steel trail]

Did you try running your bot locally and see if the issue happens there too?

[pliant root]

no, but i can try

[polar river]

this might sound trivial to you, but i need help to get my bot reacting to a direct message.
i already added the GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages but the MessageCreate event doesnt trigger on a new DM to the bot.
receiving messages in servers the bot is in, works. just not in DMs

[sharp ginkgo]

To receive direct message events on "messageCreate" with your bot, you will need:

• The DirectMessages gateway intent
• The Channel partial setting

[polar river]

ok missed the partials.
thanks.

How long is the string you're passing as a value? Looks like it's way too long

The value has a max length of 1024 characters

[pearl hazel]

i don't think cause usually the error will said that, but i will check

[steel trail]

If you caught the error and logged it properly it would yes. But that looks like an uncaught exception

[pliant root]

So I've ran it locally multiple times, and it's still online (and sending heartbeat) after some time ~ 20 mins. I assume this is my host issue then?

[pliant forge]

i had an error when i tried deploy commands.

would it ok if i delete the code?

[harsh elm]

bro can u do screen?

i dont know where's 37 line

[tough folio]

k

[topaz bluff]

What does this mean?

[tough folio]

lemme scrn shot

[harsh elm]

like modals

[topaz bluff]

No, that part I get...but max what? Modals themselves or inputs in the modal?

[harsh elm]

modals themselves

before was only 5 modals, can u do more?

[topaz bluff]

It's not 5 modals. It's 5 inputs in a modal. There is no max for modals

Modals are components, so it doesn't get stored anywhere, it is identified by the customID

[harsh elm]

Is that ur code? or u get it somewhere

[harsh elm]

oh, okay tank you sir

[tough folio]

that is what the thing gave me as a test and i'm learning how to set it up

[clear garnet]

Do you actually have clientId and guildId defined in your config.json?

[tough folio]

yeah

[harsh elm]

i think u need do client id and guild id

[topaz bluff]

Add a console.log for clientId and guildId because it looks like they are misformed. They're objects rather than strings

[harsh elm]

console.log(cliendId)
console.log(guildId)

sorry, mb he's begginer so i did it for him

[clear garnet]

If they're beginner enough to not know how to log things to the console, they should be looking at #resources rather than this channel

[tough folio]

i know how to log and stuff

[topaz bluff]

Here's the part of the error I found that (for future reference...errors can be a pain to read)

[tough folio]

it is giving me an undefined

[clear garnet]

Can you share the contents of your config.json without revealing your token?

[tough folio]

undefined
undefined

[tough folio]

k

[harsh elm]

samthino, can i make so many modules? or the bot won't start

[tough folio]

    "clientID": "1382947794087579739",
    "guildID": "1380031274542174208"
}

(without token)

[clear garnet]

JavaScript is case-sensitive, guildID is not guildId, and likewise for your client ID

[tough folio]

never noticed that(i'm stupid sometimes)

[topaz bluff]

What type of components are those? Like "ranks" and "whyuwant"

[tough folio]

works

[topaz bluff]

Well that is more than 5

#djs-help-v14 message

[harsh elm]

oh okay, so i can do only 5 ty

so i've one more question, how i can count all messages from someone user in guild

[harsh elm]

like cache messages

[topaz bluff]

You can't unless you count them yourself

Which is almost guaranteed to get you rate limited

[tough folio]

is anything wrong and how do i fix this:

[sharp ginkgo]

If you have duplicate commands on your server, you registered both global and guild commands.

You can remove the duplicates by resetting either the global or guild commands

• Resetting global commands: rest.put(Routes.applicationCommands(clientId), { body: [] })
• Resetting guild commands: rest.put(Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId), { body: [] })

[tough folio]

what is the differnce between global and guild commands

[topaz bluff]

Exactly the name . Global is for all servers and DMs

Guild commands only show up in 1 server (or whatever servers you deploy the commands to)

So having 2 of each command in your server means you deployed your commands both as global and as guild commands for that server

its not possible to setRoles with the RoleSelectMenuBuilder right?

[zenith violet]

correct

[vital vortex]

its possible in the api though? idk if i read it right

wondering if anyone has any workaround for setting roles that the bot can assign via the position of the role. use case: reapply roles upon reentering the server. you can select roles above the bot but then can't give them back to the person joining

[topaz bluff]

You can either set the bots role no higher than any roles you don't want to assign, or you can set a blacklist/whitelist for re-assignable roles on rejoin

[vital vortex]

I'm asking if there's a way to filter roles i don't want settable in a RoleSelectMenuBuilder

[hallow mesa]

There is not a way to have specific roles not visible in a role select menu. They're all visible, or you can make your own list (of up to 25) with a string select

Does the 50 requests per second rate limit include sending messages through a webhook?
