development

[boreal iron]

well looks like it's running

the error regarding the clipboard can basically be ignored

you can copy the address yourself

[eternal osprey]

if you have any code ready, send it to me and i'll test it out and send the results

[queen needle]

Couldn't you just use a spiral like solution?

[quasi depot]

the website is working just unable to interact with buttons

and there is no errors.

[eternal osprey]

wdym?

any help is appreciated tho so i am willing to try anything at this point, It should be handed in in exactly 2 hours

😭

[queen needle]

go straight until wall, placing a ball everytime, when you hit a wall turn and repeat, but also check if you are hitting a ball or a wall if so turn, then it'll create a spiral leading you to the middle

Unless I'm forgetting something wouldn't that work?

[eternal osprey]

this might work. If it is, i will kiss you on your cheeks pancake

nah but fr i ma paypal you then

[boreal iron]

@eternal ospreytry that to fill up X please

the last result should be the ball turning down, walking downwards

keep in mind idk cpp

void turn_ball()
{
    turn_right();
    
    if(north())
    {
        turn_left();
        turn_left();
        turn_left();
    }
    else
    {
        turn_right();
    }
}

void check_wall()
{
    while(!on_ball())
    {
        if(!in_front_of_wall())
        {
            step();
        }
        else
        {
            put_ball();
        }
    }
}

void check_ball()
{
    while(on_ball())
    {
        turn_ball();
        
        step();
        
        if(!on_ball())
        {
            put_ball();
            step();
            
            if(on_ball())
            {
                turn_ball();
                step();
                turn_right();
                step();
            }
        }
    }
}

void find_center_agent()
{
    while(true)
    {
        check_wall();
        check_ball();
    }
}

make a video

im trying to reproduce the steps on my paper but it's pain

unexpected behavior can be expected

[quartz kindle]

expecto the unexpectum

[quasi depot]

you should host this web for me

[boreal iron]

this doesn't stop the ball YET when being in the middle

just to say

it will continue to run endlessly

[eternal osprey]

Okay so i basically tried it myself

I am so fucking close

i just need to know a method to stop

[quartz kindle]

you're circling all around?

[eternal osprey]

Yeah exactly

[boreal iron]

try mines please

[quartz kindle]

there shouldnt be a need to circle all around

[eternal osprey]

Oki let me try!

[boreal iron]

I have a way to stop the ball

that's why the function turn ball exists

soon when being on a ball a facing north the cursor will go back and end the code

but I need to make sure if the rest works

it should fill the x axis, end in the middle, go down, fill y axis, end in the middle, to should go to the right doing the same

which I need to get rid of

(the last part)

[eternal osprey]

Owh damn wtf it almost worked yeah!

[boreal iron]

ik I JUST NEED A VIDEO

[eternal osprey]

alr

one sec

It gets into an infinite loop

[boreal iron]

fine, exactly how I mentioned

great

[cinder patio]

Just check if you're surrounded by dots

in all directions

[boreal iron]

ok i will finish it real quick

[eternal osprey]

alrighty thank you

[boreal iron]

can you actually return a function?

without value?

@eternal osprey

nvm i found the issue

and probably the solution

[eternal osprey]

owh i see

[eternal osprey]

no i am not allowed to use return at all

i hope that next fucking lessons we will be diving into real c++ instead of this fucking dumb goofy ass project

[lament rock]

I think the takeaway is that some projects have special restrictions even in the real world and you have to work around those restrictions to problem solve in a possibly more efficient way than previously thought

having no return kinda sucks but like

[boreal iron]

ok the endless loop was the issue

since we can't break it

[boreal iron]

void turn_ball()
{
    turn_right();
    
    if(north())
    {
        turn_left();
        turn_left();
        turn_left();
    }
    else
    {
        turn_right();
    }
}

void check_wall()
{
    while(!on_ball())
    {
        if(!in_front_of_wall())
        {
            step();
        }
        else
        {
            put_ball();
            check_ball();
        }
    }
}

void check_ball()
{
    while(on_ball())
    {
        turn_ball();
        
        step();
        
        if(!on_ball())
        {
            put_ball();
            step();
            
            if(!on_ball())
            {
                check_wall();
            }
            else
            {
                if(north())
                {
                    turn_ball();
                    step();
                    turn_ball();
                    get_ball();
                }
                else
                {
                    turn_ball();
                    step();
                    turn_right();
                    step();
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

void find_center_agent()
{
    check_wall();
    
    if(!on_ball())
    {
        check_wall();
    }
}

now check this please

video

it should end up in the middle facing the north, removing the center ball

to break the loop

@eternal osprey

expecto the unexpectum

[eternal osprey]

yes daddy

i mean

fake

[boreal iron]

it works?

oh may i forgot somethhing

updated the code block @eternal osprey

test it now!

[eternal osprey]

it works mate

danggg

thank you very fucking much

let me paypal you for your effort lmao

[boreal iron]

wait it can't work

[eternal osprey]

it does

[cinder patio]

ur teacher should get fired

this teaches absolutely nothing

[boreal iron]

which version did you test?

the updated one or pre-updated one?

[eternal osprey]

the pre updated one

[boreal iron]

ok, please test this one a last time for me with video

i dont think we need the turn ball function as I did before

void turn_ball()
{
    turn_right();
    turn_right();
}

void check_ball()
{
    while(on_ball())
    {
        turn_ball();
        
        step();
        
        if(!on_ball())
        {
            put_ball();
            step();
            
            if(!on_ball())
            {
                check_wall();
            }
            else
            {
                if(north())
                {
                    turn_ball();
                    step();
                    turn_ball();
                    get_ball();
                }
                else
                {
                    turn_ball();
                    step();
                    turn_right();
                    step();
                    check_wall();
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

void check_wall()
{
    while(!on_ball())
    {
        if(!in_front_of_wall())
        {
            step();
            check_ball();
        }
        else
        {
            put_ball();
            check_ball();
        }
    }
}

void find_center_agent()
{
    check_wall();
}

test that, please... be so kind

[quartz kindle]

🥄 🥣

[boreal iron]

well that triggered me

[boreal iron]

dude got the solution and never replies anymore

[quartz kindle]

the classic hire then ghost strategy

make my website for me, i promise i wont ghost you :^)

[boreal iron]

my skills making a website are... well, lets say im not the best designer

[quartz kindle]

ghosted

[boreal iron]

I mean I'm not the worse as well but still

[boreal iron]

would u "buy" such a simple design

how about light mode

[quasi depot]

[boreal iron]

including the legendary feature discord added recently, others including me already have for like 10y now

[quasi depot]

I am here having trouble hosting a open source website and your here coding it

[boreal iron]

wut

[eternal osprey]

I am here

i didn't fucking host anyone

I was packing up my things for tomorrow morning

[boreal iron]

try the last code block I mentioned, please

[eternal osprey]

okay i will!

One sec

[wheat mesa]

not the place to ask to hire devs/hosts

[boreal iron]

with a record pls

wanna see something

[quasi depot]

k

[boreal iron]

we can't help u with that, u may wanna ask the author

[rocky dagger]

is there a way to get the message id of the original message by pressing the "leave giveaway" button?

[boreal iron]

the message property of the button interaction should contain the original id property

[eternal osprey]

Yes i will

[boreal iron]

interaction.message.id should be the original the message (not the follow up ones)

no I'm wrong

you actually need to fetch the message

[rocky dagger]

that doesnt work if its ephemeral tho does it?

[boreal iron]

the first one isn't an ephermal one, right?

[rocky dagger]

but how do i know thats the message it replied to

could be more messages

[boreal iron]

you set a custom ID of the button

[rocky dagger]

yes

[boreal iron]

so fetching the original should be: let original_message = await interaction.webhook.fetchMessage("@original");

when pressing your red button

and receiving the button interaction

[eternal osprey]

@boreal iron it returned me too many errors

[boreal iron]

you then know which giveaway it was attached to

HUH WHAT

[eternal osprey]

so the function check_wall used function check ball

while check ball used check_wall

so i must place one function on top of the other, but as they both require each other i cannot

else it gives an undefined error

the function cannot be called before it's defined

[boreal iron]

ahh ohh

stupid c++

[rocky dagger]

error DiscordAPIError[10015]: Unknown Webhook

[boreal iron]

that's the result when pressing the red button?

you're sure the interaction is the button interaction and nothing else?

[boreal iron]

can't u just swap the two functions?

[rocky dagger]

yes

[boreal iron]

I updated the code once again @eternal osprey #development message

it should now be defined before getting called

if not moving all functions into find_center_agent() and call check_wall() after should work then

[quartz kindle]

thats not bad at all, its pretty good

[boreal iron]

idk cpp

[boreal iron]

[boreal iron]

please provide the code for me

[quartz kindle]

its interaction.fetchReply()

[rocky dagger]

const Giveaway = require('../../schemas/giveaway');

module.exports = {
    data: {
        name: 'leave',
    },
    async execute(interaction, client, colors) {
        let original_message = await interaction.webhook.fetchMessage("@original");
        console.log(original_message)
        const giveawayProfile = await client.createGiveaway({
            giveawayID: interaction.message.interaction.id,
        });

        try {
            await Giveaway.updateOne(
                { giveawayID: interaction.message.interaction.id },
                { $pull: { entrances: interaction.user.id } }
            );

            interaction.edit({
                embeds: {
                    description: 'You successfully left the giveaway',
                },
                ephemeral: true,
            });
        } catch (error) {
            console.log(error);
        }
    },
};

[rocky dagger]

does that work with ephemeral messages?

[quartz kindle]

it should, since its the button interaction that counts

and the ephemeral is a follow up, isnt it?

[boreal iron]

yes

[quartz kindle]

the original reply is the giveaway message

or not?

[boreal iron]

huh tf

  fetchReply() {
    return this.webhook.fetchMessage('@original');
  }

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[boreal iron]

interaction.webhook.fetchMessage("@original");

why should that return an error then

[quartz kindle]

then the ephemeral is not a followup

[boreal iron]

according his screenshot it should be

#development message

[quartz kindle]

looking at it again, it doesnt look like it is

the user presses the enter button

the ephemeral is a direct response to the enter button

[rocky dagger]

its a reply

[quartz kindle]

so then you have to use a customID in the leave button

[boreal iron]

it's a follow up message as response to his slash command interaction

[quartz kindle]

that links with the correct giveaway in your database

[boreal iron]

wait I see what u mean

it's not a follow up message

the giveaway embed is normal message and no interaction response

im no confused it says "click to see command"

do you send the ephermal message when pressing the enter button or after executing a command?

[rocky dagger]

the main giveaway file https://srcb.in/N1Gi3Xj1G0
enter giveaway file https://srcb.in/v8089NMC3G

[rocky dagger]

when i click the enter button

[boreal iron]

You’re screenshot is confusing

It should say you entered the giveaway or you’re already in in an embed and show the button after

But according to the discord ui it looks like a slash command interaction response

[rocky dagger]

i realized i had writen embed instead of embeds so here is what it should look like

[boreal iron]

Wtf

Click to see command

The ui is confusing as fuck

[rocky dagger]

whats confusing about it?

[boreal iron]

Because you didn’t execute any command

You clicked the enter button

And replied with an ephemeral message

[rocky dagger]

the first embed is executed by a command and the second is sent by a button

[lyric mountain]

regarding that, how will the user leave the giveaway after they close the client?

[boreal iron]

When I press a button my discord ui shows

That’s what makes it confusing for me

[rocky dagger]

?

[boreal iron]

Man I’m close to freak out

[lyric mountain]

ephemerals are deleted when the user closes the client

[boreal iron]

Does your giveaway command response show that it’s an interaction response?

[rocky dagger]

i have a database

[boreal iron]

Like this?

[boreal iron]

AHHH

Why did you cut that off before

My gosh

[rocky dagger]

idk

[onyx axle]

Hi, could someone help me solve a problem with my bot?

It is giving error 50001 missing access

[boreal iron]

Please log the button interaction when pressing leave

I wonder

[boreal iron]

Well you don’t have the permission to do what u wanna do obviously

So when awaiting your promises and catching errors you will know where the error is coming from exactly

[rocky dagger]

https://srcb.in/twx63zFpe6 the message id is 1021173615670067291

[onyx axle]

I made a scripit, and it is right, I tested it with 2 test bots, and it worked perfectly. However, with the token of an old bot I had, it's giving an error, I believe it's because of the slashcommands permission.

[quartz kindle]

your leave custom id needs to have the giveaway id

[onyx axle]

I already redid the bot permissions link with the applications.commands permission activated, but it didn't work

[quartz kindle]

for example custom_id: 'leave-${giveaway_ID_from_your_database}'

[boreal iron]

No

It has the reference of the original giveaway message

It’s the ID he stores on the database

[quartz kindle]

yeah but you dont really need that message

[boreal iron]

Idk if that’s new to djs

But message.reference is your message id

[quartz kindle]

you would only fetch it to identify the giveaway anyway

[rocky dagger]

then i cant access it since i dont know what the id is across the files

[quartz kindle]

you dont need to

[boreal iron]

interaction.message.reference.messageId should be your giveaway message id

[quartz kindle]

the original message that has the enter and rewards buttons does not need to be edited

[boreal iron]

Dunno since when reference exists

Never saw it before

[quartz kindle]

so if you have the giveaway id in the leave button, you can use it to access your database directly, bypassing the need to fetch the original message

[boreal iron]

He doesn’t need to fetch any message

He has the message id and reference message id (original giveaway message id) when pressing the button

That seems to be the ID he stored in his database

As reference to the giveaway

[rocky dagger]

tysm

[boreal iron]

Tbh never seen the reference property before

[boreal iron]

Clicking enter will send the leave button again

Incl a message he has already entered the giveaway

I mean he could add leave to the giveaway as button

Which would make his life easier

[lyric mountain]

yeah this would be more intuitive

[boreal iron]

Since enter also checks if he’s already in, leave could be added to performing the same check

[boreal iron]

The issue probably is the command handler

Im filtering them by their command name or custom id, too to execute the appropriate (cached) code

I mean I could also extend the handler by filtering the custom id splitting it by a - or _ for example

But yeah static names make more sense

Discord actually gives you the reference of the message when presssing the butting anyways

[ancient nova]

I just googled gta 6 leak and got gore 😐

[lyric mountain]

well what did u expect lmao

[boreal iron]

gore?

[lyric mountain]

it's either that or Sernando

[boreal iron]

tf

Stop using your slang words nobody knows

[lyric mountain]

sernando is the guy who "got" gta 6...4 years ago

5 actually

[ancient nova]

nah I acc got some weird gore video

idk if I can send a pic

😐

on youtube

[boreal iron]

I read something about a leak in another discord server and was confused

[lyric mountain]

nah better not

[boreal iron]

Thought it’s already out for years

[ancient nova]

a video of someone getting killed or sumn like that

[boreal iron]

Isn’t 5 already 10y or older

[ancient nova]

but gta 6 actually was leaked today

that's y I was looking

[boreal iron]

No a video looked like a dev build with unfinished chars and graphics robbing a Burger King

[ancient nova]

source code and gameplay videos

[boreal iron]

Or something like that

[ancient nova]

yeah, a dev video got leaked

and a couple missions

[lyric mountain]

gta 6 will probably not be released within the next 5 years

[ancient nova]

as wells as 2 protags

[lyric mountain]

gta 5 gives rockstar way too much money

they'll milk it until dead

[boreal iron]

Which can also be one of the 5 dev videos tbh

[ancient nova]

gonna be released 2024-25

[boreal iron]

*5th

[ancient nova]

youtube is fucked up

[ancient nova]

nah they stopping development

[quaint rampart]

yo guys im trying to make a request to this url https://auth.riotgames.com/authorize?redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fplayvalorant.com%2Fopt_in&client_id=play-valorant-web-prod&response_type=token id_token&scope=account openid&nonce=1 but it wont work on my vps only on my local machine cuz of ip

so

is there any way around it?

get a 403

from cloudflare

[ancient nova]

use a proxy

[quaint rampart]

tried cors-anywhere

same thing

even just a normal vpn on my local machine blocks it

[lyric mountain]

403 means forbidden

u cant access that endpoint

[quaint rampart]

yeah ik thats why im confused why its a 403

but

i only get it on my vps?

not on my pc

doesnt make sense

thats the only thing that makes sense

riot prolly fucked up the codes

[lyric mountain]

probably wrong scope or token

[quaint rampart]

nope

same exact code

sme exact every sngle thing

[lyric mountain]

then there's that:

[quaint rampart]

checked it 40 times

[lyric mountain]

is the redirect uri acessible anywhere?

and is it the same as the one defined in ur developer panel?

[quaint rampart]

thgis is public api request

no panel

needed

or

key

or antyhing

[lyric mountain]

riot is shit at balancing and making clients, but I don't think the api is broken

[quaint rampart]

that code

is supposed to have a cookie along with it

that cookie

is needed

to save

user profile

[lyric mountain]

why do you

type

like

this

[quaint rampart]

idk

LOL

[wheat mesa]

linebreak issues

[quaint rampart]

but yheah i need to make that request so people can log on the bot

they provide their cookie and its supposed to get some info off of it

works completely fine on local machine

ctrl c ctrl v on vps

and boom

403

[lyric mountain]

is the url right? copypaste is notable to cause issues with that

[quaint rampart]

yes

it is right

[hidden gorge]

does python support JSON?

[quaint rampart]

[hidden gorge]

I forgot and i have to anwser something

[lyric mountain]

it supports PSON

[quaint rampart]

"What's Causing the 'Error 1020: Access Denied' Error 1020 Access Denied is caused when a firewall rule has been violated on a site protected by Cloudflare. It can be triggered if a site visitor tries to directly access an endpoint that is protected."

thats the error in the body

BUT IT DOESNT MAKJE SENSE THAT MY LOCAL MACHINE

WORKS

BUT

VPS ODESNT

BRUHHH

[wheat mesa]

JSON is just a file format for storing key value pairs. Pretty much every language known to man supports it

[boreal iron]

Do curl -v "https://auth.riotgames.com/authorize?redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fplayvalorant.com%2Fopt_in&client_id=play-valorant-web-prod&response_type=token%20id_token&scope=account%20openid&nonce=1" on your server please

[quaint rampart]

https://haste.cherrybot.xyz/fujefewaba.php-template

i think it redirected?

no?

which it shoyuld

[boreal iron]

I don’t see a 403

How do you do the request in your code

[quaint rampart]

BRUHH HWTFFF

var response = await request('https://auth.riotgames.com/login#client_id=play-valorant-web-prod&nonce=1&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fplayvalorant.com%2Fopt_in&response_type=token%20id_token&scope=account%20openid', {
                headers: {
                    cookie: cookie
                }
            });

[boreal iron]

Try another user agent

[quaint rampart]

what should it be

[lyric mountain]

Mozilla/2.0 or smth

[boreal iron]

Try the user agent you see in curl

Or use some generic

Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 15_6_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.6.1 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1

[quaint rampart]

same thing

[quaint rampart]

lemme try that'

same thing

[boreal iron]

Show the code please

[quaint rampart]

var response = await request('https://auth.riotgames.com/authorize?redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fplayvalorant.com%2Fopt_in&client_id=play-valorant-web-prod&response_type=token%20id_token&scope=account%20openid&nonce=1', {
    headers: {
        cookie: cookie,
        "user-agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 15_6_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.6.1 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1"
    },
});

[lyric mountain]

check the docs, see if they require an additional header

[quaint rampart]

i think why it worked on curl is because i didnt provide a header

should i try providng a cookie

?

with curl

[boreal iron]

You didn’t provide a cookie

[quaint rampart]

on curl ye

[boreal iron]

Curl automatically adds an user agent like request does as well

Could be possible the cookie is associated with others

[quaint rampart]

look at this

i provided the cookie

https://haste.cherrybot.xyz/ukikicumay.yaml

with curl

and

it did an error

[lyric mountain]

docs, please

[boreal iron]

Or if the geo location is different and the user provided a cookie the access gets blocked for security reasons

[quaint rampart]

that endpoint is undocumented

im p sure

[boreal iron]

Just copying cookies nowadays to steal access won’t work anymore if certain information changes
For example cookie IDs are stored in a database with a reference to your geo location and browser

[quartz kindle]

are you trying to automate something that is not supposed to be automated?

[quaint rampart]

im just trying to login with a cookie basically

to allow users

to check their valorant item shop

[boreal iron]

When using that cookie in another browser, localization etc it could return the 403

[quaint rampart]

it works on local machine not on vps

[boreal iron]

Since it could be stolen

[lyric mountain]

undocumented endpoints are usually not supposed to be used at all

[boreal iron]

At least that’s how I enforce security

[quaint rampart]

nvm i found it

https://developer.riotgames.com/docs/valorant#valorant-game-policy_use-cases

https://shot.rip/vj8

[lyric mountain]

the scope is different than the one ur trying

[quaint rampart]

oh

so

then its prolly undocumented

[lyric mountain]

like, scopes matter A LOT when making oauth2 transactions

you might not be able to use that specific scope legally

[quaint rampart]

yeah maybe

well

i asked in the

riot dev discord

so

time to wait for an answer

[boreal iron]

With your own cookie? It stores your own user account?

[quaint rampart]

yeah

everyone logs in with their cookie

because each person has a different item shop

[boreal iron]

I doubt that works

[quartz kindle]

but if you have to use cookies, you're doing something wrong or unsupported

oauth2 doesnt use cookies, it makes the user "login with riot", then redirects them to your website with an access key, which you use to access their data

[boreal iron]

I wonder how he wants to get the cookie anyways

[quaint rampart]

u provide the cookie

in the command

that end point let’s u login with the cookie

to get some other info needed to get your store

[boreal iron]

Can’t you get access to the account details using the OAUTH flow

If it even is an OAUTH flow

[quaint rampart]

so then how does it work on my local machine?

[boreal iron]

Read this

#development message

Is the server in a different country than yours?

[quaint rampart]

no

in california

so am i

and i tried on my local machine

with my friends cookie

he lives in new york

still worked

[boreal iron]

But still the same country

Hmm

Not sure then

But tbh using people’s cookies ain’t a good idea

[quaint rampart]

yeah

just sucks cuz

i spent

3 1/2 hours

making this whole thing

so

kinda bummed out

[quartz kindle]

spent leukemia lmao

[quaint rampart]

but

it is what it is

[quaint rampart]

apple autocorrect at its finest

[quartz kindle]

tbh 3 hours is not much

i've wasted much more than that on things that didnt work

[boreal iron]

I tell you how I would do it

User enters the command in discord, you respond with ephemeral message incl the oauth link which includes a redirect url to your endpoint which has a token as get parameter to identify the request, once the redirection happens you have access to the user data, push it to your bot and a non-ephemeral follow up message

Use the token you got as get parameter as reference

To send the follow up to the right webhook (message)

The token could be the webhook id for example

Actually top level shit idea to add that flow to my bot

Utilizing the Steam login to get the user data

Why haven’t I thought of that earlier lol

[lyric mountain]

sir...this is Wendy's

[quaint rampart]

yeah but one issue

getting a riot dev api key

is not as easy as u think

at all.

[boreal iron]

Ah ok

I see but still collecting cookies of people is like the worst idea tbh

[boreal iron]

Tf does that mean

Speak a human understandable language ffs

[wheat mesa]

sir... this is a Wendy's

[boreal iron]

[boreal iron]

Man… kids can be annoying

[lament rock]

arent you younger than 21

[wheat mesa]

lol he's definitely older than 21 (no offense fake)

[lament rock]

ah

idk. I know some goater 15-17 year olds

[wheat mesa]

berry be like

[boreal iron]

Would be nice if so… 😅

[lament rock]

I can imagine

Wish I could go back as well

[boreal iron]

When people say I would do things differently who knows if you actually really would

[lament rock]

I think things happen for a reason, so I'd just do everything over again the same way. I'm not disappointed with how my life is unfolding at the moment

[boreal iron]

Yeah differently doesn’t automatically mean better anyways

What looks nice in the beginning could end like shit later on

[lament rock]

how many lives would you theoretically have to live to make yours a "perfect" run?

[sudden geyser]

"damn I got dumped, I wish I could go back in time"
becomes serial killer
"damn could I get a refund?"

[boreal iron]

I like my current life too but who knows what the future brings but I still feel like I should have done some things differently which would may open a few more doors for a different future

[boreal iron]

Huh Perfect is a strong word

Ain’t possible

But yeah your decisions are part of a big chain and who knows what would be missing, differently or worse when you’ve made other decisions

End of the philosophy lesson

[sudden geyser]

That's just a question of free will

[boreal iron]

Yes and no

You can’t be open or ready for anything you gotta choose sometimes and even if you might switch at some point, thing is you don’t get younger and life is really short

I mean I’m not an old fart yet but trust me being 10-15y older changes your point of view

It feels like the time is running faster every year

[ancient nova]

youtube has the weirdest ads ever

I just watched an add of a girl farting on a dude the dude turned into a zombie she killed the zombie then turned his house into fortress and somehow got 300 guns

😐

[lament rock]

mobile game ads are getting out of control

[sharp geyser]

When has it never been out of control

[lament rock]

clash of clans clan wars ad

[rocky hearth]

whats the difference bw ytdl-core and node-ytdl-core?

[pale vessel]

??

they're the same

the repo is called node-ytdl-core and the package is called ytdl-core

[rocky hearth]

oohh, yeah. got confused there

Also which is better discord-ytdl-core or ytdl-core-discord?

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[edgy rover]

How can I make a <t:x:d> of a specific time? without date

[boreal iron]

If you wanna use the time format then you will have to use a timestamp

If you wanna drink some water, you need water in the first place

Just to say in cases you don’t know, X is a timestamp not a date

[green kestrel]

i think seeding this backup on my new server may take a while...

[jovial nimbus]

hello

When an error occurs in the discord api and the user cannot log in, it says this message in the dashboard, which leads to the project name being shown as you see. Is there another way when I have an error in the discord api it shows a custom error page ? Does this typing error appear?

[lyric mountain]

make an error handler

or simply catch your promises (if passport use promises)

[jovial nimbus]

I will try this, thank you

[worn gust]

hello, Who use ShewenyClient?

[lyric mountain]

no idea what that is

[daring apex]

Why it's not working?

[boreal iron]

why are bananas crooked?

Without further details nobody can help you

[lyric mountain]

congratulations, you managed to make the least descriptive question in the history of topgg

[daring apex]

I can't send code for a reason

If I send

I may get ban

[boreal iron]

What the heck do you expect us to do then if don’t see any code or some more details what’s not working

[lyric mountain]

is it dm advertising/outright scam/privacy breach/botlisting?

also yes, we cant help if we dont get any code

[sudden geyser]

suspicious

[wooden ember]

how do i catch a require failing?

want to make it so that if i reload my commands and one is broken for whatever reason it doent brick the whole bot

[boreal iron]

Why should the file be "broken"?

[wooden ember]

idk

[frigid canyon]

El pepe

[boreal iron]

Check if the file exists before loading it

[wooden ember]

i edited it and fucked somthing up

[wooden ember]

that sort of thing

[boreal iron]

Require does only import the file, not more or less

[wooden ember]

true

[boreal iron]

If the code inside is broken, an error will occur when using the defined constant

[wooden ember]

?

[lyric mountain]

json?

[wooden ember]

so i can reqire a bricked js file and it will be fine untill i set it as a command in the command handler

[boreal iron]

#development message

[lyric mountain]

ah, I thought we had a case of krangled json db

[wooden ember]

no

[lyric mountain]

so ok, how tf (and why) is the file broken?

cant u just fix it?

[wooden ember]

edited a command file and broke it in the prosses

[lyric mountain]

fix the error

[boreal iron]

As long as there’s no self executing code inside, then yes

[wooden ember]

well duh

[lyric mountain]

also dont u use git?

[wooden ember]

but i dont want the thing to crash

[lyric mountain]

u can just restore an old version of the file

[wooden ember]

when its loaded

[lyric mountain]

it's 100% better to have it crash than not

that way you know something is wrong

instead of chasing your own tail trying to fix a broken command

[wooden ember]

i want it to try to load the file and then not load it if its got an error in it

and then get a console log going "yo the help commands bricked again"

thats all i want

[lyric mountain]

cant u .catch() a require?

[wooden ember]

i tryed that and it says .catch is not a function

[lyric mountain]

then use try-catch

[wooden ember]

uuh i tryed that but it didnt work cuz the thing wasnt global but i think i knwo how to get around that

one sec

[lyric mountain]

...?

like, you'll have the try-catch only around your require

there's no "global" at all

[wooden ember]

try {
const cheese require("bruh")
} catch {
console.log("error happend")
}
client.commands.set("cheese")

error cheese isnt there

thats paraphrased

but what i ment

[lyric mountain]

u didn't return inside the catch

so the execution will proceed regardless

[wooden ember]

but thats not the error

cheese was there and working

but cuz it was in the try block it stayed in the try block

but i can just put the whole lot in the try block and it should just work

[lyric mountain]

well yes, that's called scope

[wheat mesa]

Scope is important c:

[lyric mountain]

simply declare the variable outside of it

[boreal iron]

Command set is outside the scope in that case

[wooden ember]

i did that but then there was some other error

[boreal iron]

Commands for example

commands.set has to be inside try

[wooden ember]

thats what im doing now

[lyric mountain]

let cheese;
try {
  cheese = require("stuff");
} catch (e) {
  console.log(`Error happened: ${e}`);
  return;
}

client.commands.set("cheese");

[boreal iron]

If command.name wouldn’t exist because the file or structure is broken that would error

[lyric mountain]

you shouldn't even attempt to continue if it errored

[boreal iron]

Of course you should continue

[sudden geyser]

why is this so blurry

[lyric mountain]

or yes, use ```js
try {
let cheese = require("stuff");
client.commands.set("cheese");
} catch (e) {
console.log(Error happened: ${e});
}

[boreal iron]

Halting the application when loading a broken command file is stupid as fuck

[wooden ember]

exactly

[lyric mountain]

I'm not considering a loop

I'm considering you're specifically reloading that file

[boreal iron]

Dunno mobile screenshot issue I guess

[lyric mountain]

if you're loading a specific file, you shouldn't attempt to continue if it errored

since everything else will be just invalid

[wooden ember]

im reloading all commands at the same time

[lyric mountain]

then use this

[wooden ember]

i did

it works now

cheers

[boreal iron]

Nothing will be invalid that’s why you got a command handler and error handler for this

[lyric mountain]

btw, u should track which files were changed, so u dont reload unchanged files

[lyric mountain]

if ur loading a specific file and it errors, everything after the require will be invalid

emphasis on "specific"

[earnest phoenix]

Can I ask not discord bot code here?

[boreal iron]

Man we’re speaking about commands atm

Man translators are shit

[lyric mountain]

I'm talking abt single-file reload, ur the one talking in plurals

even for multi-file reload, u shouldn't continue that iteration if it errors

since anything else will be invalid because of the error

[boreal iron]

Still depends on the situation

[lyric mountain]

yes

[lyric mountain]

give me a situation where an errored file doesn't invalidate the entire current iteration

[boreal iron]

Loading Commands, events, interactions, localizations

Etc

[lyric mountain]

all of those invalidate the entire current iteration when erroring

[boreal iron]

Anything has a proper handler

One wrongly loaded file will cause an error not more or less

[lyric mountain]

yes

[boreal iron]

No code inside the loaded file can be existed since it’s broken

[lyric mountain]

that's why u skip that step and go to the next file

[boreal iron]

So why should I shutdown the entire app?

[lyric mountain]

I didn't say that

[boreal iron]

That’s exactly what U said

[lyric mountain]

I said you shouldn't attempt to continue if it errored

[earnest phoenix]

errr...cpp

[neon leaf]

how can I check if a userid is in a serverid?

[lyric mountain]

fetch

[neon leaf]

discord.js

[earnest phoenix]

If I add

for (int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
{
      in >> pd.name >> pd.country >> pd.contact;
}

It get huge error

[lyric mountain]

I have absolutely no idea how to answer that

[boreal iron]

Try to Fetch a member with that user id

[lyric mountain]

other than "main doen't need a return"

[boreal iron]

Either he exists or not

[neon leaf]

can you tell me the full function name? Cant really do alot with fetch to every answer, ik how to fetch a user to get its username and tag but idk guilds

[lyric mountain]

I think waffle will be ur only help

[lyric mountain]

guild.members.fetch

[wheat mesa]

In passing period rn I’ll help in a sec

[earnest phoenix]

It's okay if can't help

[lyric mountain]

may I ask, why cpp?

it's unusual to see cpp devs around here

[neon leaf]

is guild in my case interaction.guild?

[lyric mountain]

ig so

[earnest phoenix]

Erm this semester learn this😂

[boreal iron]

Yes

[lyric mountain]

ah ok

[wheat mesa]

Ok so what’s the problem exactly?

[lyric mountain]

btw I once read that using endl is pretty bad on loops

since it flushes the buffer everytime

[lyric mountain]

#development message

[wheat mesa]

Yeah use \n

Ok it’s because you’re doing struct personalDetails pd;

Just do personalDetails pd; otherwise you’re declaring an empty struct basically

Quite honestly I’m surprised that even compiled

The compilers for C++ are pretty lenient though

Also using arrays for this is probably not recommended, I’d be using vectors. Though I’m not sure of what your assignment requires

I think what it wants you to do is make an array of structs

[earnest phoenix]

😮‍💨 💀

[neon leaf]

what exactly would I get from that to know if hes in the server, actually... lemme try if it errors if the user isnt in the guild

yu

[boreal iron]

Dude

You need to read what we wrote

[wheat mesa]

You’ll need something more like this @earnest phoenix

[boreal iron]

#development message

[wheat mesa]

In c++ it’s technically not required but still perfectly fine to do

[lyric mountain]

if it is not undefined/null, the user exists in the guild

it wont error

[earnest phoenix]

Erm can I know that the part A is only need to count the number of line only? (Sry my eng bad)

[wheat mesa]

I can help in about 20 minutes

[boreal iron]

New channel topic: free homework helper

[earnest phoenix]

OK noted

[frigid canyon]

I use node

My old laptop is for hosting :,)

I guess its hosting like 17 bots rn

[civic scroll]

evil

[lyric mountain]

why 17

[civic scroll]

17

it better be an old gaming / workstation laptop

[vivid fulcrum]

the amount of gateway events 🫠

[civic scroll]

yes

[wooden ember]

bruh and i thought my 4 bots was alot

anyway

is there a way to stream the same audio source to multiple chats?

[lyric mountain]

you can open a stream for the audio and send the bytes to each output stream in a loop yes

[quartz kindle]

17 = bolsonaro

[lyric mountain]

if we get lucky our electronics price might go down by like 40% by the next year

[solemn latch]

O pog

[lyric mountain]

well, that's what happens when your president self-shames himself in pretty much all public events

my notebook costed around R$2,800 when I bought, now it's more than R$4,300

[hidden gorge]

how long do i need to wait?

[wheat mesa]

Usually 24 hours, or until your next cycle kicks in for login limits

If you have somehow managed to hit the 1000 login per day limit then you have a big problem

[hidden gorge]

well our bot goes offline while i code is online for some reason

[earnest phoenix]

I get the feeling that they're using a free host that resets their bot application every time the code is edited

And that the host also resets the application on an interval

[hidden gorge]

uptime robot bc my stupid hosting doesn’t work properly

[earnest phoenix]

Glitch and Replit does that

Just use a VPS, they aren't even expensive

[hidden gorge]

I have $0

[wheat mesa]

You can quite literally get VPSs for $0

They’re not very good, but they exist

I personally use Oracle, never been charged a penny for hosting my bot 24/7 for nearly the past year

[hidden gorge]

last time i used a free vps i got in trouble with the police

[wheat mesa]

??

The fuck lol

[quartz kindle]

wtf

[earnest phoenix]

I very much doubt that, if you don't want to be limited by the free hosting service you use and don't want to encounter ratelimiting issues like that, just throw in a few bucks

[hidden gorge]

yeah apparently they hacked my fricken information and used $114 on my moms credit card

[wheat mesa]

Sounds like you chose a shady VPS provider

[hidden gorge]

Yep

Kamatera

[quartz kindle]

i had a kamatera before, it was quite good actually

never had problems with it

[hidden gorge]

yeah besides the fact that i had my information stolen

[wheat mesa]

If this is from someone that hacked your account that sounds like you had a problem

[hidden gorge]

i’m also ip banned by them

[wheat mesa]

Aka bad password, no 2fa, etc

Next time secure your account better

[lyric mountain]

also an important note, disable anything that might keep retrying during the ratelimit

[wheat mesa]

Especially with accounts linked to your payment information

[lyric mountain]

you definitely don't want to aggravate your case

[hidden gorge]

is IBM good?

[earnest phoenix]

For what?

[hidden gorge]

vps

[wheat mesa]

Building computers in the 70s 😉

[lyric mountain]

no, ibm doesn't have a free vps plan

[wheat mesa]

^

[lyric mountain]

they have a thing that's kinda like azure, but definitely not a vps

and yes, as much as I'd piss on oracle's grave, their free vps is pretty decent

I give them that

[wheat mesa]

Oracle is a greedy piece of shit company but fight the greed by forcing them to spend resources on you at no cost to you

That’s how I see it

[lyric mountain]

I made a proxy server out of their vps

[wheat mesa]

Lmao

[earnest phoenix]

Don't you also love the programming language they maintain called Java?

[lyric mountain]

to prevent my testing bot from locking my main bot

[earnest phoenix]

[lyric mountain]

i like java the lang, not java the oracle

plus java's opensource, java's jvm is what's patented by oracle

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, but then again they're the main maintainers of the language as well, I would say they've worked pretty hard on it

But Oracle being Oracle... Not much you can expect

[quartz kindle]

quality graph

[quartz kindle]

them fuckers literally deleted my vps

rip my minecraft server

[earnest phoenix]

Why did they delete it?

[quartz kindle]

no reason provided

they simply disabled my account and deleted everything

[lyric mountain]

they're the main maintainers of the language as well
I'm not sure about that anymore

[lyric mountain]

they maintain the name java, but openjdk is being maintained mostly by ibm, amazon, apache, etc

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[quartz kindle]

i tried talking to their support, and all they said was "the account was terminated, we dont have any more information"

[earnest phoenix]

Weird, they must've had some obscure reason or just some Oracle-specific bullshit

[lyric mountain]

"yes, we delete rows instead of using status columns, why do you ask?"

[earnest phoenix]

What I mean is that they also weigh in a lot of work, changes, reviews and similar, those also have contributed impactful changes to the language

Generally a lot of companies have contributed to almost every major programming language

[lyric mountain]

they did, but nowadays their contribution is shadowed by those

those 3 I listed are among the top contributors

notably ibm and its Eclipse foundation

[quartz kindle]

so im trying to buy a pair of tires online

at first the shipping was 28 bucks

when i tried paying, it errored out

went to pay again and the shipping was now 74 bucks

went to complain on chat support

they offered me a 3% discount

went to apply the discount, the shipping changed to "unfortunately we cannot deliver to your address"

goan fuck yourself

welp, somehow the pair of tires i wanted got bugged out, ended up buying a different brand and it worked lol

[earnest phoenix]

The first parameter is the old member, the second one is the new member

And you can check if the member had a role by the <GuildMember>.roles.cache.has() method

Yes

[lament rock]

I really wish worker threads in js shared the same memory space

[quartz kindle]

theres always sharedArrayBuffer :^)

[lament rock]

I do know and was kinda of curious if I should make it so that the main thread shares buffers with threads which represents the stream buffer of audio sources so that handlers dont need to be initialized each thread which possibly incurs api calls

kinda defeats the purpose of worker threads though since the main thread would then handle all of the tcp messaging

I swear I'm gonna somehow make a system to share module require cache at the very least

[quartz kindle]

xD

[digital mulch]

🎉

[quartz kindle]

i have a shelved project which attempts to make a Map-like object based on sharedArrayBuffer

but its really hard to accomplish, so i kinda paused it

[lament rock]

I can imagine

[quartz kindle]

need a better serializer

but then i also paused my serializer

because i need to work on my actual financially viable projects

but then i also dont work on them because im a lazy bum

[lament rock]

how much money do you make and how much do you need to stay afloat btw?

if you're willing to disclose that is

[quartz kindle]

making about 150 bucks from donations and sponsors

which is barely what i need to stay afloat lmao

gonna start an onlyfans

:^)

[solemn latch]

actually a good idea, instead of typical OF content though just have people submit questions for a price.

[quartz kindle]

hahaha

[solemn latch]

I would pay for that ^_^

[spark flint]

OnlyTims

[quartz kindle]

onlytims.com is taken lmao

redirects to this guy

[wheat mesa]

damn, could've been a gold mine

tim you should freelance things for people

there's a lot of people out there that'll pay ridiculous amounts of money for codebases that you would be able to make in your sleep

[solemn latch]

What about programming bounties?

I feel like you could do some pretty high paying bounties within a few weeks.

[worn gust]

how can i optimize my bot, to work with less ping

[lyric mountain]

"how to solve world hunger"

[solemn latch]

Ping generally is a network issue not a code issue.
unless the code is so so slow

[worn gust]

oh

[wheat mesa]

not really within your realm of control, unless you are willing to move your VPS location closer to the discord servers

[worn gust]

i got it

i try to do my code the cleanest posible

[lyric mountain]

ping rarely matters for normal bots anyway

command processing time is 99% of the time between command and response

[worn gust]

any option on the client, that can help?

[solemn latch]

Id suggest learning about Big O notation, then best practices(books, college, getting more experience).

Also, just writing the code in a few ways then benchmarking them.

[wheat mesa]

I still need to learn how to properly benchmark things

[worn gust]

thats very complex

[wheat mesa]

Like microbenchmarks

Unit testing is a big thing that helps when writing programs

(Just development in general)

[solemn latch]

I've not done proper unit testing in so long. yikes 👀

[wheat mesa]

I hate unit testing in any language that doesn't have it built in

Rust is a blessing in that manner

[solemn latch]

just smash things together and hope it works approach works for me

[quartz kindle]

where is your bot hosted?

[wheat mesa]

As simple as doing ```rs
#[cfg(test)]
mod tests {
#[test]
#[should_panic]
fn test() {
panic!()
}
}

it's amazing

[worn gust]

its located in NA

[wheat mesa]

then just run cargo test

boom

[worn gust]

but it has aprox. 150~200 rate of ping

[quartz kindle]

which part of NA?

[solemn latch]

150-200ms isnt bad

for a bot

[wheat mesa]

150-200ms is pretty good

[worn gust]

i guees

[solemn latch]

you're not playing cod, its a bot

[quartz kindle]

for rest latency is ok, but its not ok for websocket ping

[radiant kraken]

so true

[wheat mesa]

My rest ping is 200ms, gateway is around 70ms

[worn gust]

can i send ss here?

[wheat mesa]

Sure

[quartz kindle]

afaik discord's gateway is in new york

[worn gust]

its not so bad

[quartz kindle]

api latency is good

rest latency is normal

[lyric mountain]

ping is mostly noticed on music bots

[wheat mesa]

Thought it was in cali, granted I believe my VPS is hosted in virginia, so that would make sense if it were in ny

[solemn latch]

Even then 200 ping on music isnt that bad

[lyric mountain]

optimizing ur code flow is almost guaranteed to have a huge impact on "perceived latency"

[quartz kindle]

really depends tbh

i mean sure

but

fluctuations of 10-20ms in your code are nothing compared to fluctiations of 100+ms that regularly happen on the internet

granted most discord bots should be way faster than that, most commands should take < 1ms to execute, excluding database access

[wheat mesa]

Let me introduce you to djs

😉

[quartz kindle]

exdee

tbh even in djs the code execution itself should still be very fast

[lyric mountain]

where neck

[carmine summit]

is there a way to get channel where webhook is made?

[lyric mountain]

it's in the url no?

[rustic nova]

the webhook get request includes a parameter for it too iirc

[rustic nova]

also, iirc that's a webhook id instead of a channel

ye it's an id, the GET request to a webhook obtains the channel id

[carmine summit]

does .catch or try{}catch{} stop the function from running?

[sudden geyser]

which function

it stops executing later code once an error happens

[brittle lantern]

You guys are so smart and i’m amazed

[median hazel]

Fr

Do I report bot problems here or no

[sudden geyser]

This channel is for bot development (i.e. programming bots), so if you need help with that, yes. If you just need help with a certain bot, you may want to check #support or if it has a support server.

[lyric mountain]

Neither stop anything, they just protect the outer scope from being crashed by the inner scope

[carmine summit]

how can I stop the function without stopping the enitire process?

[lyric mountain]

Think of it as a sandbox, regardless of what happens inside, the outside will run (unless u explicitly return/break/continue)

[lyric mountain]

Return

return stops the current scope and return a result (void is a result)

break exits the current scope, must be either a loop or a labeled scope

continue stops the current iteration and go to the next one, if any

There's also goto, but we don't talk about goto

[daring apex]

No

Bro I can't tell you

[lyric mountain]

Why did u even bring the topic again then?

[timber crest]

I know nothing about this I just want a Pokémon server can anyone help?

compressed account ah yes , a little bit of compression 🧈

[quartz kindle]

i compress you compress we compress

[cinder patio]

omg I can't believe Fireship is using Detritus

[radiant kraken]

true

[hidden gorge]

i literally have $0

[earnest phoenix]

👍

[wild silo]

For someone who got his bot verified recently. How much time does it took u to get verified?

[lyric mountain]

discord or topgg?

topgg varies between 1-2 weeks

discord is hard to say, but somewhere around 1 week too if u dont request privileged intents

[winged linden]

can someone help? getting this error for this code

[ancient nova]

maybe don't do them all in one

await the fetch also

[winged linden]

stupid question but how can i access the value of "checker"

[sudden geyser]

It has to be in scope to be accessed.

So you could move it out of the function so it can be accessed in the outer scope

You could also restructure your general code

Like returning checker from a function and using it like so

[neon leaf]

how can I use the integrated mute function in discord? (discord.js v14)

[winged linden]

fixed it! thanks sir

[frigid canyon]

hi

[neon leaf]

im talkin bout this

[boreal iron]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/main/class/GuildMember?scrollTo=timeout

You can timeout a guild member

Make sure to fetch the guild member before since not all members are cached at any time

[neon leaf]

am i fetching correctly?

[lyric mountain]

no

fetch is a promise, you cannot simply call a method on it without awaiting

[neon leaf]

oh, forgor that

[lyric mountain]

also why are u doing user.toString()?

[neon leaf]

bad experience not doing it, now doing it just to make sure

[lyric mountain]

cant u simply do user.id?

[boreal iron]

Once you got the user instance already use user.id

[lyric mountain]

this is also really bad for a command where the user expects a response

[neon leaf]

yes, thats temporary

[lyric mountain]

inb4, don't await the fetch

[boreal iron]

Maybe you should show us how you got the user

[lyric mountain]

use .then() chain

[boreal iron]

I feel like it could be wrongly as well

[neon leaf]

const user = interaction.options.getUser("user")

[boreal iron]

And user is a required option?

[neon leaf]

yu

.setRequired(true)

[boreal iron]

Ok then

[lyric mountain]

I reinforce, dont do

const member = await ...fetch(...);
const result = await ...timeout(...);

do instead

const result = await ...fetch().then(m => m.timeout(...));

[boreal iron]

Not needed I think

The user option guarantees to return a valid user if I’m not wrong

[lyric mountain]

not needed yes, but better than having many awaits for stuff that could be chained

plus u dont need to repeat .catch() for every step

[wheat mesa]

no :c

Async await is good

Callback hell is bad

Use try catch blocks and await your promises

Then you’ll never have problems

[lyric mountain]

that's not callback tho

[wheat mesa]

.then is a callback for when the promise resolves

[boreal iron]

Well that’s what you do in your command handler, since the member/user is guaranteed to exist here, you would simply need to catch the timeout promise
