tardy sable

i think that depends on when you see the bot slowing down

low hamlet

iirc sharding is only really needed around 2k, so start thinking about it around 1k

kindred moon

you can't

wary coral
pine laurel

how would i go about implementing reaction roles?

wary coral
zealous marten

hmmmmm

yes onboarding is the best option

pine laurel
rose tangle

you've described what you need though? I'm not sure where you're confused

pine laurel

i dont know how to actually do it

rose tangle

you already know the steps so you know where to start

do you know how to make commands?

how to create and start a client?

pine laurel

yeah

tardy sable
rose tangle

then describe exactly where you're confused

because it sounds like you know already what to do

at the very least you know how to make the command

zealous marten

send snippets

rose tangle
sharp ginkgoBOT
pine laurel

how to assign the roles, idk what listener to use, like interactioncreate etc, and also dont know how to use partials

tardy sable
sharp ginkgoBOT

documentation suggestion for @pine laurel:
method GuildMemberRoleManager#add() discord.js@14.23.2
Adds a role (or multiple roles) to the member.Uses the idempotent PUT route for singular roles, otherwise PATCHes the underlying guild member

rose tangle

you get that manager via GuildMember#roles

sharp ginkgoBOT
rose tangle

use that to listen to reactions

sharp ginkgoBOT

guide Partials
Partial Structures were introduced to the library in version 12 and are optionally received whenever there is insufficient data to emit the client event with a fully intact discord.js structure. They are (as the name suggests) incomplete, and you cannot expect them to have any information besides...
read more

rose tangle

and there's the guide for partials

pine laurel

thank you

rose tangle

I'm not sure with what they'd be auto populated in the first place though

pine laurel

@tardy sable do you mean like this?

sharp ginkgoBOT

guide MessageSelectMenu

  • MessageSelectMenu has been renamed to StringSelectMenuBuilder - StringSelectMenuBuilder#addOption() has been removed. Use StringSelectMenuBuilder#addOptions() instead.
    read more
pine laurel

i may have misunderstood your question but im not sure @tardy sable

zealous marten

addOptions would do

native marten

Yo guyz what's going on?

tardy sable

now im just limited to one with setDefault(true) on string selects

rose tangle

you don't populate them though, that's why they're auto populated

rose tangle
zealous marten

its not possible with string select menu

native marten

.setMin(value)
.setMax(value)

tardy sable
rose tangle

it's possible to marking many options as selected by default, like I said just make sure your select menu allows multiple selected values in the first place

tardy sable

specifically i mean an .setDefaultUsers([""]) (example) equivalent for string selects

sharp ginkgoBOT
tardy sable

yh only limited to mark one. hope they add multiple like for channels and roles etc

wary coral

Then you set the option is true for multiple

rose tangle

I'm not sure why you're not reading what I'm saying though

zealous marten
native marten

In simple you want to show multiple roles in menu field as a default value?

rose tangle

the default selected options are stored at the option itself, not on the select menu

tardy sable
rose tangle

only in auto populated menus they're stored in the select menu, because you don't specify any option

rose tangle
native marten

That gave me an idea.

tardy sable
rose tangle

I'm not sure what that has to do with the issue

in case you haven't noticed, it's a method on the option

not on the select menu

steel trail

You define that a value is a default

rose tangle

it wouldn't make sense for it to say setDefaults, because you're in a single option

tardy sable

let me just show example thats easier to explain

native marten

yeah please

tardy sable

im allowed to set multiples values as default?

modal.addLabelComponents(
    new LabelBuilder()
    .setLabel("Select an option")
    .setStringSelectMenuComponent(
        new StringSelectMenuBuilder()
        .setCustomId("options")
        .setMaxValues(3)
        .addOptions(
        new StringSelectMenuOptionBuilder()
            .setLabel("Text").setValue("text").setDefault(true),
        new StringSelectMenuOptionBuilder()
            .setLabel("Attachments").setValue("attachments").setDefault(true),
        new StringSelectMenuOptionBuilder()
            .setLabel("Stickers").setValue("stickers").setDefault(true)
        )
    )
)
rose tangle

correct

native marten

yes

tardy sable

ok thanks for clearing my confusion

lean sail

what does djs export that is the same as MappedEvents from the core package?

rose tangle

you mean ClientEvents?

lean sail
rose tangle

ah, I missunderstood the question, thought you meant the way around (what's the core equivalent of ClientEvents) lol

well that answered it anyways kek

tardy sable

best way to check if can start a thread on a message is by checking channel perms, or is there a message.threadable ?

or can i just use deletable for that?

brittle current

Can i use deffer with componentV2?

whats the max options in a string select menu?

golden laurel

25

leaden shuttle

ty

cunning hinge

would be nice having autocomplete interactions on string select menus, then you could effectively have infinite options

unique shoal

It would, but that is not a Discord feature

cunning hinge

indeed

unique shoal

It would likely be far more complicated as messages dont have a "live update" framework built in the way slash command choices do

Components are inherently very static

candid grove

Did the client.once("ready, () => {}) event get deprecated? What should I be using instead?

unique shoal

Events.ClientReady

cunning hinge

use clientReady

candid grove

Ah the docs just say use ClientEvents instead, but that is the type of every event.

cobalt valley

When is v15 coming? crySparkle

bleak owl

there is no v15 yet

unique shoal

Why do you think v15 would be coming

cunning hinge

what would v15 even ensue

unique shoal
candid grove

Only reason a v15 would be needed would be if there was a complete redo of the discord api like a discord api v11...

cobalt valley

Because of this

unique shoal

Thats not the only reason, but a good example of one

Those milestones dont really mean anything tbh

cobalt valley

😭👍🏻.

unique shoal

It also answers your question: No due date

candid grove

Ah yes a milestone of v15... that could be like... 4 years off.

cobalt valley

💀

candid grove

The % annoys me because if you have 100 tasks, you can compelte 99 small ones and it say you have 1% to go but the last task be the longest most challenging one... At least from my experience with how work uses them...

cosmic burrow

i just created my slash command and my slash command called: annoucement didn't showed up

bleak owl

does it show when you type / ?

cosmic burrow

yeah

bleak owl

then there's no issue. don't rely on that page. it doesn't update properly

cosmic burrow 

module.exports = {
  data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
    .setName('annoucement')
    .setDescription('Create an annoucement embed')
    .addStringOption(option =>
        option
            .setName('title')
            .setDescription('Adds a title for your annoucement embed')
            .setRequired(true))
    .addStringOption(option =>

            .setName('description')
            .setDescription('Adds a description for your annoucement embed')
            .setRequired(true))
    .addStringOption(option =>
        option
            .setName('color')
            .setDescription('Adds a hex color for your annoucement embed')
            .setRequired(true))
    .addStringOption(option =>
        option
            .setName('footer')
            .setDescription('Adds a footer for your annoucement embed')
            .setRequired(true))
    .addChannelOption(option =>
        option
            .setName('channel')
            .setDescription('The channel where the annoucement embed would send in')
            .setRequired(true)),
  async execute(interaction) {
      const title = interaction.option.getString('title');
      const description = interaction.option.getString('description');
      const color = interaction.option.getString('color');
      const footer = interaction.option.getString('footer');
      const channel = interaction.option.getChannel('channel');

      const annoucementEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
          .setColor(color)
          .setTitle(title)
          .setDescription(description)
          .setColor(color)
          .setFooter(footer);

  await interaction.reply({ embeds: [annoucementEmbed] });
  },
};```

i type /annoucement nothing shows the command

bleak owl

what do you mean "nothing"

cosmic burrow
bleak owl

it's hard to help without knowing what "nothing" means in this context

stable sun

You have to spell announcement correctly in the command name

Or don’t. Just be consistent however you decide to spell it

Nvm, you edited message

tardy sable

does clicking a button inside an archived thread makes the thread automatically unarchived?

stable sun

Afaik, editing a message isn’t allowed in archived threads, but sending a message is and will unarchive it

red coral

If you use the editMe too often, you get

DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body
banner[BANNER_RATE_LIMIT]: You are changing your profile banner too fast. Try again later.

Is this intended to error, not just like a normal rate limit? Is this the same if you use like client.user.edit or whatever it is

stable sun
red coral

Yh that doesn’t feel right

hasty fern

Hey guys, how can I avoid that? I tried using escapeMarkdown() but it makes the text be ghost\_jonas\_ instead of just ghost_jonas_

For now I'm doing it like that:

return `${formatEmoji({ id: "1411365868964806758", name: "accounts" })} ${bold("Contas:")}\n` + data.accounts.map(account => `${formatEmoji({ id: "1411360326707839016", name: "steam" })} ${hyperlink(inlineCode(account.username), `https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/${account.id}`, `Acesse a página de perfil de ${account.username} na Steam`)}`).join("\n");

If you guys know a better way instead of using inlineCode() please ping me here

How do I receive the choosen Channel from ModalBuilder?

Nevermind, I found it getSelectedChannels

Sorry I don't have any other answers. Right now

Ok, I'll keep it with inlineCode() for now then

can i use the same custom id for multiple buttons on the same message? i am facing a situation where i am going to have a list of minecraft names as buttons and i am unsure what the best way to approach it is.

i was thinking of temporarily storing the names and appending them to the data for one button file but im not sure yet

something like this?

wary coral
wary coral
orchid radish
wary coral

Fair enough, but it is not best practice to use the buttons label as stored information.

orchid radish
wary coral

Include the information in the custom ID and use a character such as - or _ to separate the data from your action for example
buttonid-buttondata

You can then use the string function split to separate the two strings

Are embeds smaller than component v2 containers by default? I have the same text, image, etc., but the container is noticeably larger.

loud quartz

Might have bit more padding here and there

zenith folio

Hi,
can .addFields be uset inside containers to have multiple texts inline?

steel trail

No. Containers aren't embeds and don't have a notion of fields

zenith folio

is there any other way to do this inside container?

loud quartz

if you want fields, use an embed

container doesn't have an equivalent of inline fields

zenith folio

ok thanks

is there a way to get ActionRow from interaction.message.component or can I just get this with the index

            option.setName('fighter2').setDescription('Fighter Number 2').setRequired(true),
        ),
loud quartz

if you mean presence status, then that's just due to how discord handles long running connections on their end

you can avoid that by setting the presence in the Client options

primal edge

why does my bot just randomly turn off?
it doesnt print any errors or anything. I am very confused.

loud quartz

turn off how?

primal edge

it just shuts off after a hour or so.
but, its still running in the console, no errors, anything.

loud quartz

by "shuts off" you mean it goes from statusOnline to statusOffline ?

primal edge

yes

and commands dont work, but, console still running

loud quartz

out of curiosity, is that cmd or powershell?

primal edge

git bash

looks good imo lol.

loud quartz

okay but, by default cmd/powershell pause execution when you start selecting text

primal edge

ye, this dont do that.

i registered 2 commands then why /announcement command didn't showed up?

sharp ginkgoBOT

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)
  • Note: if you initialize your Client as bot or other identifiers you need to use these instead of client
  • If the output is too long to post consider using a bin instead: gist | sourceb.in | hastebin

and what does that do

cosmic burrow

it registers commands

loud quartz

i thought it cooks food

how does it registers them

cosmic burrow 
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

    // 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.applicationCommands(clientId, guildId), { body: commands });

        rest.put(Routes.applicationCommands(clientId, guildId), { body: [] })

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

using node deploy-commands.js

loud quartz

You're deploying the commands to a guild, right?

Is it this guild?

Could you log the commands in that script right before the rest.put() call to see what is actually being sent to discord?

So, I've been trying, but it seems I can't find out how to trigger this event, I even tried changing nicknames too, without success... 🤔

bleak owl

you need the GuildMembers intent

steel yacht

Ah, intents.
I'm just gonna enable them all cause I always forget about them and I don't see the point of loosing time on a toggle 😂

It works, thanks !

There's no event when the time out ends though ?

snow onyx

correct

steel yacht

Well, I need to log messages when someone gets timed out and when the time out ends, how can I do the second one ?

I did notice there's an event when the time out is manually stopped before the scheduled end though, but that's not the majority situation

There's no guide on how to use them, @discordjs/core is pretty easy (see the README.md). That's all you need to know.

For HTTP interactions, you'd need a way to respond to ping interactions validate security headers, which discord.js doesn't provide though. There's example code on Discord's documentation or discord-interactions (if you're not comfortable setting things up yourself, might recommend that)

How to add status text on my bot’s profile (not presence)?

I saw some bots like Appy have a small text under their name on their profile (status like how discord accounts can set status that “+ Add Status” thingy).
I’m using Discord.js v14 and I know how to set presence/activity (Playing, Listening, etc.), but that’s not it, that im looking for.

How can I set that profile status text for my bot?
I checked docs and StackOverflow but couldn’t find anything, i asked chatgpt but it said bots cannot set custom status only activities, custom status only for user account not discord bot

interaction would never be a guild

steel yacht
loud quartz

so wouldn't make sense to be interaction.isGuild()

and a direct DM check on a channel makes more sense because it's DMs that have less stuff in it

also

steel yacht
loud quartz

i believe there's a reason to this

if you look at this:

the ises are checking what it actually is

while the inses check where it is

steel yacht

ises should remain unchanged and ins should be renamed isIn.

loud quartz

channel has only the thing checks

loud quartz
steel yacht

Clean code.

loud quartz

that has like, nothing to do with it whatsoever

i explained why

your reasoning is not really relevant

steel yacht

Yes, this is totally valid :

the ises are checking what it actually is
while the inses check where it is
But the latter should still be isIn rather than is.
is = what it is, isIn = where it is.
In all cases, is because it's a boolean.

loud quartz

we're not going to break this for the sake of semantics

what is the best way to send messages on a channel if i only have the id, possibly not in the cache, and without having to make a request just to paste an instance of BaseChannel?

red coral

If you have the id of the channel?

zealous bison

yes, i'm using this right now: ```js
return clients.discord.rest.post(
/channels/${channel_id}/messages,
{ body: payload /* RESTPostAPIChannelMessageJSONBody */ }
);

but i don't know how to parse `files` from `MessageCreateOptions`
red coral

The .post has a files option

zealous bison

yes, but the MessageCreateOptions.files can be ```js
readonly (
| BufferResolvable
| Stream
| JSONEncodable<APIAttachment>
| Attachment
| AttachmentBuilder
| AttachmentPayload
)[]

Is there any tool within discord.js that makes all of this automatic parse for RawFile?
red coral

djs doesn’t seem to have a like client.channels.send

zealous bison

yes, i miss this 😦

clear garnet
wary coral
zealous bison
zealous bison

Yea, I think what you have now is the best method if you aren't fond of making a fetch request prior to sending it

wary coral

Out of curiosity are you validating that the channel is text when you get the id?

zealous bison
zealous bison
clear garnet

Scratch that, the target needs to be some d.js class, so I don't think that'd work for your use case after some quick thinking

zealous bison

yes, i tried this before sending message here

happily i ever use AttachmentBuilder for files, i'm trying to parse AttachmentBuilder => RawFile

clear garnet

You might still be able to use the static resolveFile() method on it though

zealous bison

i tried this, this is basically what <MessagePayload>.resolveFiles() do, but it seems that AttachmentBuilder is not compatible with fileLike, my typescript complained

red coral

Could .toJSON the builder

zealous bison

toJSON returns unknown 🥶

clear garnet

I'd just cast it. Based on how d.js uses it, passing an AttachmentBuilder instance should still work just fine

zealous bison

i believe that resolveFile really should receive an instance of AttachmentBuilder pepe_think

I wasnt too sure, only just recently got back to discord applications

I'm having an odd issue deploying commands...for some reason, deploying guild commands simply hangs:

await rest
        .put(Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guild), {
          body: pcommands,
        })
        .then(() => {
          console.info(`Synced commands to ${guild} successfully.`);
        })
        .catch((err) => console.error(err));

I tried setting the timeout on the rest client lower, but it never completes or catches. Never had trouble before...

if it's a bad command definition I usually get an error back lol

polar karma

if you're doing it too often, you're rate limited

visual tusk

Ah...I see it now. I broke on debugging and it's indeed in discordjs's sleep(), with the stacktrace pointing twoards the ratelimit handler.

just see a few messages above for a quick answer

grizzled notch
balmy kraken
steel trail

No. Don't pass componentType if you don't want just one type

tacit nacelle

in the TextInputBuilder, why can't we set the value to an empty string?
it's throwing this error:
✖ Too small: expected string to have >=1 characters → at component.value
but using an empty space seems to work fine if you do something like this: .setValue(someValueThatCanBeUndefined || ' ')

brave moth

Maybe just don't set the value at all? :o

red coral

I mean that’s not empty that’s a space

tacit nacelle
brave moth

If you use setValue, you have to set a value. If you don't want to set a value, don't use setValue.

tacit nacelle

but I want to set a value... it's just not always present

red coral

A space is a character, so I can’t see why it wouldn’t work

brave moth
tacit nacelle

that would mean i need to split my code and use variables rather than just retuning a new modalbuilder nyaDed

red coral

Ternary operators also exist, however a space is a character

tacit nacelle

Something like this worked perfectly fine before

return new ModalBuilder()
    .setCustomId('')
    .setTitle('')
    .addLabelComponents(
      new LabelBuilder().setLabel('').setTextInputComponent(
        new TextInputBuilder()
          .setCustomId('')
          .setPlaceholder('')
          .setValue(code || '')
          .setStyle(TextInputStyle.Paragraph)
          .setRequired(true)
          .setMaxLength(1900),
      ),
    )

now you need to add an extra space in there or split the code up

red coral

Using an empty string for customId works on the builders or for discord? For discord it’s within the api that you need to have a custom id above string length of 0. Which is intuitive. Djs just follows the spec

copper kelp
tacit nacelle

it was just an example, i do have my custom ids and titles set properly

red coral

The only time you can’t have a customid is when you have a url button

Then it’s not really an example, since that won’t work regardless

copper kelp

like, if you don't want to do that, I'd actually recommend you just use json objects instead

red coral

You can’t have empty strings in places that require you to have a non-empty string however

tacit nacelle

Just adding the empty space works for me, i just don't get why there needs to be a check if the length of the value is greather than one

copper kelp

because the API doesn't allow an empty string, or at least we think it doesn't

tacit nacelle

It worked fine before the update

copper kelp

¯_(ツ)_/¯

red coral

djs builders are for building and validating, which makes sense. You don’t wanna build something for it to not work

copper kelp

open an issue on github if you think the behavior is inconsistent with the API

but, as I said just earlier

just because this "works for you" doesn't mean we recommend it, I think you're going totally wrong if you're setting values to empty strings

builders, are, by design, to create concise and readable complex conditional code. if your task is as trivial as setting a single property conditionally and you don't want to use the builder pattern, you should just use plain objects

tacit nacelle

I build the modal based on previous interactions and the value may be present or may not be

red coral

Cool but they need to be there in the api, hence djs checks it

copper kelp

yes, I understand that. this is what builders are for, but if you insist on a single return with the whole thing, then you're throwing all of that away

what we want you to do is

const builder = new WhateverBuilder();

if (conditional) {
  builder.setSomething(someValue);
}

return builder;
red coral

Am I saying something wrong?

copper kelp

but again, if you don't like that and if your logic is simple, you're better off just writing

return {
  field: conditonal ? 'value' : undefined
};```
copper kelp
brave moth

I never used discord.js before, how long will it uusually take until the File Upload modal component that released yesterday is supported?

copper kelp

should be pretty soon, but we don't give ETAs

tacit nacelle
red coral

So I’m not wrong then, sorry I’m coming across like that it’s not my intention

copper kelp
brave moth
red coral

Djs doesn’t provide etas. It was also released yesterday

tacit nacelle

I'll just solve my issue by doing this and it works just fine nyaShrug

return new ModalBuilder()
    .setCustomId('customid')
    .setTitle('title')
    .addLabelComponents(
      new LabelBuilder().setLabel('label').setTextInputComponent(
        new TextInputBuilder({
          custom_id: 'customid',
          placeholder: 'placeholder',
          style: TextInputStyle.Paragraph,
          required: true,
          max_length: 1900,
          value: someValueThatCanBeUndefined,
        }),
      )
    );
copper kelp

shruge you do you, I gave you my stance as someone that's actively working on builders

brave moth
tacit nacelle

yeah, it just seems silly to me that there's a check if it's not a requirement
like a value does not need to be provided here at all

red coral

It’s just not something djs provides

brave moth

Okay, how long did the Label modal component take?

tacit nacelle
brave moth

Alright, thank you!

copper kelp
tacit nacelle

I can't be bothered

though the API does also say that it is not a required field
value? string Pre-filled value for this component; max 4000 characters

brave moth

Of course the value is not required, but if you use setValue in your code, that can't be empty.

tacit nacelle

yeah but you used to be able to just give it an empty string, now discordjs expects the string to be at least one character long

brave moth
rose tangle

does the api allow an empty string in the first place?

I don't think it'd make sense for that context

it can either be something (non empty string) or nothing (not set)

tacit nacelle

I don't know, it might have just been handled by discordjs before and they didnt send off the value at all if it was an empty string

brave moth
tacit nacelle
rose tangle

I'd say it should validate it's something

red coral

apart from builders I don’t believe djs validates much else, since everything required by the api is checked in a builder

halcyon bison

just tested, the api does accept an empty string
please just make an issue

rose tangle

because you'd be inputting something and it'd actually set a different thing

red coral

Oh cool

tacit nacelle

Okay, thank you duck, i will make an issue

versed current

Guys I might've found a bug but I'm not sure.
On the new modal components, the ModalSubmitFields property is an array, that is OK. (1st pic)

However the LabelModalData has a property of component which suggests that there is only one component - but the type says it's an array (2nd pic). When I log out ctx.fields.components out though, I get this:

[{
  type: 18,
  id: 2,
  component: {
    type: 4,
    id: 3,
    customId: "text-display-1",
    value: "asd",
  },
}]

This suggests that LabelModalData is supposed to be singular instead of an array.
Is this intended or what am I doing wrong? I want to iterate over all label components because I need to collect all data with custom ids (I can't predict which custom ids to expect)

brave moth
versed current

yeah but the type suggests an array

I'm drafting an issue for the repo right now. Update: Done.

is it possible to get someones bio/description with discord.js?

nope

the api doesn't allow it

then they do that by breaking ToS

no bot-accessible endpoint exposes that information

thats probably why the command of that bot is so much slower than others 😭

would make sense. i'd report that for breaking ToS

When using the following reply, I get the warning, that ephemeral is deprecated.

interaction.reply({
    content: `You don't have permission to use this command${
        interaction.options.getSubcommand().toUpperCase() === "ENABLE" ? "" : " in DMs"
    }.`,
    ephemeral: interaction.inGuild(),
});

Does anyone have a solution using flags that doesn't look too bad? Best I could think of was this:

interaction.reply({
    content: `You don't have permission to use this command${
        interaction.options.getSubcommand().toUpperCase() === "ENABLE" ? "" : " in DMs"
    }.`,
    flags: interaction.inGuild() ? MessageFlags.Ephemeral : undefined,
});

I guess it works fine as long as MessageFlags.Ephemeral is the only flag...

sharp ginkgoBOT

The ephemeral option when replying to an interaction will be removed in v15

- {..., ephemeral: true}
+ {..., flags: MessageFlags.Ephemeral}
``` Read [here](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Bitwise_OR) on how to specify multiple flags
coral fractal

I don't see how using bitwise operators could make the code look better. I'd still have to check, if the message was sent on a server. Or do you want me to shift the boolean value? Could you please give me an example of what you think works best?

bleak owl

that is what works best

coral fractal

Shifting the boolean?

bleak owl

no? i think what you have is fine

unique shoal

"looks bad" is subjective, while using enums is objectively better than magic numbers or other such things

Okay, thx then. I really liked the ephemeral option, but i guess I'll have to live with flags now...

it's in every server without being invited

so it might be another special thing if it's like you said

yeah your probably right🥀

loud quartz
mental silo

im surely doing everything right simply asserting interaction.guild everywhere

outside of global commands

unique shoal

If your bot is private, and cant be used in DMs, sure

loud quartz

there is no like, "global interaction" and "guild interaction", they all trigger the same event

unless you mean in the command code itself

then if you know that it would never happen in a DM, sure

but you could also just typeguard your interaction and not have to assert it everywhere

mental silo

Yeah my handler seperates them, that command practically (hopefully) cant run outside of a guild

I followed documentation of creating handlers and such. It has started to create tech debt as my project has grown, with my "interactionCreate.js" and being touched by 10 other files or "guildMemberAdd.js". For example...

  • GuildMemberAdd.js handles checking for muting, onboarding,
  • Interactions Create, handles welcoming, onboarding, role menus.
  • All these files have their own OTHER files as command.js files as shown in image figure.

Pretty much my code is bouncing all around the place. If "guildMemberAdd.js" has issue it takes out several functions at once and has grown to like 1000 lines of code.

TLDR: Is it advised/possible to just put all function feature's in separate/single files so each thing is its own comparntalized bit so I don't have these monolithic "interactionCreate.js" files for a "command handler" structure?

unique shoal

Im curious just how "monolithic" they are, but yes, you can absolutely modularise further

You can also just separate things out into separate functions within the one file

hexed willow

Would it become a API problem if I rewrite and declare below several times across my code? Currently everything that requires "InteractionCreate" ends up in this single file module export which is my main concern and what I want to escape from

    name: Events.InteractionCreate,
    async execute(interaction) {```
unique shoal

The downside of having multiple event listeners is that it will fire ALL of them at once, and you then need to ensure you kill off the functions that shouldnt be handling a particular aspect of the event ASAP

There's a balance between multi-handling and single-triage

What exactly is failing that "takes out several functions" that you cant architect around without multiple event handlers?

hexed willow

Nothing is failing, but I just don't want one file with 10 totally different and unrelated functions. I am use to everything to do with "something" should just be in "something.js". Now I have to check if interaction is fine, then check command file itself, then check guildMemberAdd.js event and so fourth etc...

unique shoal

How are you handling it now, if/else or switch cases or something based on details of the event?

hexed willow

pretty much, why its such a PIA.

unique shoal

Yeah fair enough, you could modularise a bit via something like

switch(interaction.type) {
  case InteractionType.ApplicationCommand:
    switch(interaction.commandType) {
      case ApplicationCommandType.ChatInput:
        return handleChatInputCommand(interaction)
      default:
        console.log("Unhandled");
    }
  }
}```

And that way each interaction type is split out

And then those component functions like handleChatInputCommand can be separate functions, in other files if you want

There isnt a significant benefit to having multiple event listeners over this triage

hexed willow

Is there any good open source projects that are "beautifully designed" that could be helpful for me to reference?

I only ever seem to find half baked iffy bot templates on github sadblob

unique shoal

No idea sorry haha

Good design changes depending on scale

Modularising to the degree you're looking to do would be terrible for a smaller bot

These are the two options basically, I'm inclined to prefer the first one

hexed willow

I would like to keep idea open of scaling the bot up and sharding it etc... I rather invest now in making it strong than fix up holes later with 10x the codebase. I am only at 331,800 characters total code base but I am only like 30% done.

unique shoal

But feel free to experiment with what suits you better

hexed willow

Really depends on how you write it, like using maps or switch cases, things with efficient lookups

        const caseReasonInput = new TextInputBuilder()
            .setCustomId('case-reason')
            .setLabel("Reason for the case")
            .setStyle(TextInputStyle.Paragraph)
            .setPlaceholder("Describe the reason for opening this case...")
            .setRequired(true)
            .setMaxLength(400);
            
        const caseReasonRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(caseReasonInput);

        const categoryInput = new 
    }

why does the ActionRowBuilder take a generic for the components it contains while almost every other one has specific methods for adding specific components?

Prob bc it was legacy behavior

Alright i will try it

You could use callbacks in addOptions instead of making the classes

.addOptions((optionBuilder) => …, (optionBuilder) => …, …)

topaz bluff

just out of curiosity...there's no functional difference between using a callback and instantiating a new class correct?

That’s correct

Callbacks just reduces the imports you need to do

Oh, it’s clearly not exported then

module.exports = { modal }; right?

You only export a customId and execute function

Well, need to be careful on the specifics of implementing that

Callbacks also allow you to keep it as a single expression

.addX(X()) vs .addX(() => x.…)

If you capitalize the key, you have to change it in the other file too
