development

[harsh nova]

mutating passed parameters can lead to unknown behaviour which is fun to see in action but not fun to debug

[rustic nova]

thus readability yes

I don't wanna experience that nightmare during debugging

[harsh nova]

c++ is a nightmare in and of itself ngl

[rustic nova]

it's better to be able to view the flow instead of suddenly having a function called and a pretty critical value changed

And I don't think neither of these improve any code performance

[harsh nova]

Was a while ago I wrote with c++ but I did write a script to read inputs from a ps4 controller a while back

[rustic nova]

glad I suffer on Java instead of c++

[eternal osprey]

Ah then i will just stuck with my normal variables instead of using &

[rustic nova]

probably better if you wanna be able to understand your code later on

[earnest phoenix]

Using references instead of ordinary assignments can optimize the code performance if the compiler isn't able to pick them up for inlining and stuff

You should only use references if you're doing a lot of such reassignments

[eternal osprey]

 char a = 'a';
    a = static_cast<int>(a)
    cout<<a;```why would this return just plain ``a`` instead of it's int value 97?

would there be any way to convert that char a to a int, and pass it to the same a variable?

[quartz kindle]

not possible

you need another var with a different type

[eternal osprey]

owhh i see

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>          // for file I/O
#include <cassert>  

using namespace std;
enum Action {Encrypt, Decrypt};
char rotate_char (char a, int r, Action action)
{
    char b;
    cout << a - 0;
    

if(action == Encrypt){
 if(a >= 0 && a < 32){
     b = a;
 }else{
     b = (a - 32 + (r % (128 - 32)) % (128 - 32) + 32);
 }
}
    return b;
}
int main()
{
   cout << rotate_char('a', 32 ,Encrypt) <<endl;

    return 0;
}
```i've done this, but now it returns me some strange ass shit:

I mean all characters work for really small values of r

but not for 32 etc

[quartz kindle]

well you're doing something weird with your math there

[eternal osprey]

that function was already given by my teacher

if a < 32, the outcome will just be a

else if a >= 32 and <128 it will perform that formula

[raw nest]

Is there a way in a JS function to get the file where the function was called? Without an extra param?

[lyric mountain]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Function/caller

[raw nest]

I also found that but then I found out it's null in strict mode... NextJS is by default in strict mode so.. 😅

[lyric mountain]

well u could try throwing an exception and catching it at the same time, then getting the stacktrace and finding the line before the current function

[deft rock]

how long does a global command take to register?

[earnest phoenix]

Depends the bot

For me it's never more than a minute

On my testing bot it's seconds/instant

[earnest phoenix]

Global commands now register instantly

It used to take an hour for them to be registered and cached

But now it's instant

[deft rock]

humm wonder why mine wont do it then

[earnest phoenix]

Probably something wrong, or you have done it too many times today

[deft rock]

No, did it once

its a new bot

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

const commands = [];
const commandsPath = path.join(__dirname, "commands");
const commandFiles = fs
  .readdirSync(commandsPath)
  .filter((file) => file.endsWith(".js"));

for (const file of commandFiles) {
  const filePath = path.join(commandsPath, file);
  const command = require(filePath);
  commands.push(command.data.toJSON());
}

const rest = new REST({ version: "10" }).setToken(process.env.TOKEN);

rest
  .put(Routes.applicationCommands(clientId), { body: commands })
  .then((data) => console.log(`Successfully registered ${data.length} application commands.`))
  .catch(console.error);

I get no errors, it says it was successfully registered. But when I go do my command nothing appears as it wasnt registered

Got it too work

Helps if the bot was online 😂

[thorny field]

I want people to be able to contact me if they find any bugs or glitches on my bot, what is the best simple way to do that

[lyric mountain]

modals

do note tho, only a fraction of users ever bother to report bugs

[thorny field]

Modals? What is that

[lyric mountain]

https://discordjs.guide/interactions/modals.html in case ur using d.js

[thorny field]

Oh is that supported in the python version?

[lyric mountain]

check the docs

[thorny field]

Yeah looks like it’s on discord.py 2.0

[boreal iron]

Yeah... at least they are available within a very short period of time, I wonder that hasn't been changed in the docs yet

Still client caching issues seem to require to reload the client quite often I noticed (before being available)

[earnest phoenix]

Sometimes just changing channels/servers does the trick

At leas that has always worked for me

[eternal osprey]

/  Pre-condition:
assert (a >= 0 && a < 128 && r >= 0);
/* Post-condition:
Result value b > 0 or b == 0, and b < 128, and result value r > 0 or r == 0.
*/
if(action == Encrypt){
 a = ((a >= 32 && a < 128) ?  (a - 32 + (r % (128 - 32))) % (128 - 32) + 32 : a);
}else if(action == Decrypt){
a = ((a >= 32 && a < 128) ?  (a - 32 - (r % (128 - 32)) + (128 - 32)) % (128 - 32) + 32 : a);
}```why is this returning me warnings: ``'comparison is always true due to limited range of data type'``

[earnest phoenix]

What are the data types of a and r?

[eternal osprey]

a is a char and r is an integer

[deep fern]

bro

now every 2hours or so my bot will get rate limited

[lyric mountain]

the definition of "unmaintainable"

tf is that ur doing

[eternal osprey]

i am trying to encrypt chars based on the r .

[deep fern]

can anyone help

[lyric mountain]

no

[eternal osprey]

Imagine i have char 'a', which has a value of 97, and chosen r = 1, the new value would be 98.

[deep fern]

my bot is getting rate limited in every 2hours

[deep fern]

toxic

[lyric mountain]

no I'm not, you barely supplied any info

[eternal osprey]

It works, i ran some google tests. However, now i am facing the issue that the encryption is slightly off due to the fact that above statements are always true

[lyric mountain]

and for ratelimit, what exactly do u want help with? simply don't spam the api

[deep fern]

like how to not get rate limited as much as i do

[lyric mountain]

simply do not spam the api

[deep fern]

how can i do that

[lyric mountain]

simply do (char + r) % 0xFF

[deep fern]

i have just written my code

and just run it

and hosted it with uptimerobot

thats it

[lyric mountain]

well, I can't help if you dont give anything to work with

at least show the error

[deep fern]

429 hit on /route

whatever

like i can fix it

i just wanna know the reason why

and why it happens so often

and how can i fix that

[lyric mountain]

that's not the error

[eternal osprey]

I have to do it this way, it's for school XD, like i just need to get rid of this dumb warning.

[lyric mountain]

I want the full stacktrace

[deep fern]

code?

[lyric mountain]

no, the error u got in the console

[deep fern]

i dont get error

[lyric mountain]

did they explicitly ask for the spaghetti?

[deep fern]

i just need help with how can i reduce rate limit

[lyric mountain]

how do u know it's being ratelimited then?

[deep fern]

it shows on console

429

hit on /route

and the bot is off

[lyric mountain]

THAT'S THE ERROR

just show that

[deep fern]

i fixed it dude

[lyric mountain]

sigh

[deep fern]

i am saying tho

that

[lyric mountain]

you don't get the point

[deep fern]

how can i reduce how often i get rate limited

[lyric mountain]

I don't want u to write the error, I want the error itself

a print of it, per se

[eternal osprey]

I will just wait till you are done with priyam as you otherwise get tag teamed lmao

[deep fern]

429 hit on route /gateway/bot

[lyric mountain]

I don't want u to write it

I want the original, untouched thing

[deep fern]

yeah

thats the rogiginal

original*

[lyric mountain]

that's just the message of the error, but the useful part is in the rest of the error

aka the stacktrace

[deep fern]

it only shows that .-.

[earnest phoenix]

That's not a hosting provider

You are most likely using Replit which uses shared IPs for lots of projects. Since lots of people share the same IPs the rate limits come way faster.

[deep fern]

ye

[lyric mountain]

then u either muted your exceptions or is using a pretty bad logger

all loggers should include the full stacktrace

[earnest phoenix]

Solution? Of course: don't use Replit

[deep fern]

i use the standard

client.on("debug", ( e ) => console.log(e));

[earnest phoenix]

You cannot prevent yourself from getting rate limited.

[lyric mountain]

ye that's terrible

[deep fern]

i just wanna prevent how often i get rate limited

cuz

i used to get rate limited in like 1day or so

[earnest phoenix]

If you don't change 'hosting' provider, you will always get rate limited.

[deep fern]

not this often like only 2hour

[earnest phoenix]

Either self host on some raspberry pi or pay for a proper VPS for as less as $2/month

[lyric mountain]

console.log(e) will only print the exception message, but exclude everything else

[deep fern]

i am poor

[earnest phoenix]

And that is impossible

Keeping on using replit will make you getting ratelimited, that's a fact

[deep fern]

yeah i will try to switch

[earnest phoenix]

You may also eventually get rate limited by Discord - and be unable to even get your bot online

[lyric mountain]

shared ip, yeah

[earnest phoenix]

The warning occurs because the range of the data type of char is 0-255 by default but this is compiler-dependent, you should explicitly declare if you want the char to be signed (range of -127 to 127) or unsigned (range of 0 to 255)

Since it's unsigned for you and you're checking if the char will be greater than or equal to 0, it'll always be true

[eternal osprey]

how would i sign it?

char*?

[lyric mountain]

that's a pointer

[earnest phoenix]

signed char

[lyric mountain]

what is the original question asking for?

like, why can't u let the char under/overflow?

[eternal osprey]

okay i see, we haven't had that so far so i don't think we would need that.. really strange!

[eternal osprey]

I could give you the function one sec

char rotate_char (char a, int r, Action action)
{
//  Pre-condition:
assert (a >= 0 && a < 128 &&  r >= 0);
/* Post-condition:
Result value b > 0 or b == 0, and b < 128, and result value r > 0 or r == 0.
*/
if(action == Encrypt){
 a = ((a >= 32 && a < 128) ?  (a - 32 + (r % (128 - 32))) % (128 - 32) + 32 : a);
}else if(action == Decrypt){
a = ((a >= 32 && a < 128) ?  (a - 32 - (r % (128 - 32)) + (128 - 32)) % (128 - 32) + 32 : a);
}
    return a;
 
}```

[lyric mountain]

ye I saw the spaghetti

but like, simply add a + r

when it reaches 256 it'll overflow to 0

[eternal osprey]

we can't ass we eventually create it based off random r's

[lyric mountain]

...yes?

[eternal osprey]

We eventually have a randomizer that will add values to certain characters so they get 'encrypted'.

However, i must do it like this

my teacher says so

[lyric mountain]

but how is that an issue with a + r?

u could pass anything as r

it'll still work regardless

[eternal osprey]

don't ask me, we just got these formulas and some background info to work with.

it must be done like this

but yeah, for some reason the output is slightly different then it should be

and i think it's due to that encoding

[lyric mountain]

ok, then lemme humanize that code

if (chr >= 32 && chr < 128) {
  char radix = 128 - 32;
  char offset = r % radix;

  if (action == Encrypt) {
    chr -= 32 + offset;
  } else if(action == Decrypt) {
    chr -= 32 - offset + radix;
  }

  chr %= radix + 32;
}

considering it's checking for < 128 I imagine it's indeed a signed char

[eternal osprey]

i see

the assert i made is giving issues tho

[----------] 4 tests from OTPTest
[ RUN      ] OTPTest.use_OTP_1
Assertion failed!```

``main.cpp, Line 39

Expression: a >= 0 && a < 128 && r >= 0``

i will log a rq to see what's going on

but @lyric mountain isn't it strange that we are checking if a character is smaller then < 128?

I mean it's a character...

shouldn't we convert it to int first?

[lyric mountain]

characters are numbers

it's equivalent to short in some langs

[eternal osprey]

hmm then this issue is really strange

[deep fern]

i got a new hosting

lets go

[earnest phoenix]

Which is?

[deep fern]

good

[earnest phoenix]

I meant the name

[deep fern]

its a pterodactyl hosting

i dont even know the name

[earnest phoenix]

[deep fern]

bot hosting.net

still free

[eternal osprey]

I came to the conclusion that my whole encryption is off!
However i am not sure why

i am following all steps i must

[raw nest]

sounds overcomlpicated xD

[earnest phoenix]

hey, does anyone know how i can possibly make a new array in a json file without overwriting already existing data?

[lyric mountain]

try { 
  throw new Exception() 
} catch (Exception e) { 
  String[] theStack = e.getStackTrace();
}

then simply find which line has the same name as the current file and get the next

[raw nest]

ah like that ye true. I'll find a way^^thanks:)

[lament rock]

can you not just construct a new Exception and not throw it?

[lyric mountain]

it won't pull the stacktrace

[lament rock]

oh that's stupid

[lyric mountain]

the stacktrace is collected at runtime, that's why you need to throw it

indeed a stupid trick, but does the work

[lament rock]

JS is a little different and the stack is collected as the code runs and if the code reaches too large of a depth (recursive), an error saying that the max stack size has been reached. You can also configure the max stack size

[lyric mountain]

it's the same concept

[lament rock]

Well no, the thing with js is you can construct a new Error and not throw it and still get the stack

[lyric mountain]

ah true

[eternal osprey]

after 10 fucking hours i finally finished my assignment

The issue was so damn easy

nvm iot's still broken

where's that ? coming from?

even if it's a whitespace it should be coded normally?

while(!infile.eof()){
initialise_pseudo_random(initial_value);
initial_value = next_pseudo_random_number();
char individual = infile.get();
cout << individual <<endl;
cout << "end" <<endl;
char init = rotate_char(individual, initial_value, action);
outfile << init;

}
outfile.close ();
infile.close ();```what i am using

[lyric mountain]

ok so, you can't simply open the file and expect normal characters

[eternal osprey]

what???

this is what the end of the file looks like

[lyric mountain]

when u manipulate characters directly you'll eventually enter in the special characters domain

[eternal osprey]

you have a normal processed space, and then you have 2 whitespaces which counts as 1 character

[eternal osprey]

I have a txt template to compare mine with, they have exactly the same but don't have the strange ? symbol

this is theirs

[lyric mountain]

you either opened or saved the file with a different encoding

also that last char is probably EOF char encoded with ur algo

[neon leaf]

can I somehow make these chakaraui toasts start lower? I know that containerstyle exists but I dont know if I can do that with it

[eternal osprey]

yeah i thought so as well

[lyric mountain]

what did u use to write the text?

also yes, note how there's a 15th line

[eternal osprey]

Yeah these are the encoded chars and they are not encoded with it

how would i remove this?

[lyric mountain]

simply don't save the file with it

[eternal osprey]

wdym?

[lyric mountain]

what did u use to create the file?

notepad, sublime, vscode, what?

[eternal osprey]

vscdoe

ifstream

[lyric mountain]

I didn't mean the output file

I mean the input

[eternal osprey]

the 15th line was done by my teachers, on purpose i think.

[lyric mountain]

then just delete that line

[eternal osprey]

It should stay intact. However, if the EOF() function was the cause of this is there no other way to do this?

[lyric mountain]

not function, character

and no, there's no other way

the algorithmn is doing exactly what u want, the issue is in the input text

[eternal osprey]

oowhh that's an easty fix then

i could check if my current char i am looping on (called init) is equal to the EOF character?

and if it is, simply return.

[lyric mountain]

kinda

[eternal osprey]

yup it works, thank you!

Never knew, there's a EOF property in c++!

[surreal sage]

I saw something once and I want to get back to it

It was a .then with an object inside the function

.then(({something}) =>

Which gets specific keys/entries from the returned object

But how.

[lyric mountain]

consider you have the object

{
  "name": "Abc",
  "age": 21
}

doing .then(({name}) => Console.log(name)) would print the name, which is the same as doing .then(obj => Console.log(obj.name))

it's just a shortcut

it's not an object inside the function, it's the deconstructor

it's like when u do import {a, b} from "./file"

[surreal sage]

Understood

Thanks for lmk

[fickle arch]

so I tried make my new bot get total server it's in with this (old code from previous bot)

 client.on("ready", () => {
   let total = client.guilds.cache.reduce((a, b) => a + b.memberCount, 0)
 
   console.log(`${client.user.username} is now online!`)
   let activities = [ `${client.guilds.cache.size} servers`, `${total} users!` ], i = 0;
   setInterval(() => client.user.setActivity(`${config.prefix}help | ${activities[i++ % activities.length]}`, { type: "WATCHING" }),5000)
 })```
but it's only shown amount of member in 1 server + watching 1 server 
*first picture is the old project and the second one is the new one (the second one is in 3 server*

[lyric mountain]

that's getting the total members, not servers

[fickle arch]

it get total server and total members

invited it to new server and it now shown 2 server and not 3 (for some reason) but the total members is updated

yeh it only shown the 2 server the bot in and not the original server, ig it's not a big deal

[lyric mountain]

cache is never guaranteed to have the actual number of guilds

same applies to any other cache

[quartz kindle]

you are defining those numbers as static values, they will never change

you have to define them inside the interval so they are recalculated

const a = client.users.cache.size; // define the value once
setInterval(() => {
  console.log(a) // will always be the same value because it was defined only once
})
``` ```js
setInterval(() => {
  const a = client.users.cache.size; // will get the updated value on every interval
  console.log(a) // value will always be up to date because its redefined on every interval
})

[earnest phoenix]

PS: setInterval

[quartz kindle]

set int eval

set int eval("Krypton")

[earnest phoenix]

[quartz kindle]

/compress Krypton

[deft rock]

Sounds stupid I know. But if I made a bot to fight suicide would that be against discord TOS or anything?

[lyric mountain]

it'd be obnoxious af

[deft rock]

Why?

[lyric mountain]

you can't fight suicide by deleting any mentions of it

if anything you'll only remember the person about bad times

[deft rock]

Who said that's what the bot would do :/

[lyric mountain]

or in the very least, make the users hate the bot

[deft rock]

I never said the bot would delete the messages

Idk where u got that from

[lyric mountain]

ok, then what would it do?

send hotline number?

[deft rock]

Basically in summary the bot will do that and (if I'm able to get it) will send help. It's gonna be a challenge but I'll get it.

[lyric mountain]

yeah nobody will be helped by that

[quartz kindle]

wasnt there a story in the usa where a person called a suicide hotline, they sent the cops, and the cops shot the person?

[earnest phoenix]

🗜️

[lyric mountain]

I do know that having some constantly remembering you that you're depressed only makes things worse

[earnest phoenix]

That's something that only happens in 🦅

[deft rock]

and how do you know? oh wait you dont.

[lyric mountain]

oh boy, I do

a long time ago, about 4 years iirc I had some hard times due to parental abuse

I can say for sure, the worst thing to happen is having someone trying to "help" you by saying "no dont do that" or "your life matters"

it doesn't help, in fact, it only made me feel worse since, when you reach that point, you don't give a fuck to hypocritical words from people that never bothered to help you when you needed

you want to help? treat the root cause, not depression itself

and a bot cant do that

[deft rock]

I agree with this sadly

[earnest phoenix]

I have lil problem. I tried to get user.id in discord py using discord.User but it says that user has no tuple. When i printed only user i got something like this. How to get id from this?

[rustic nova]

these are arguments you can access using their keys, such as the name by user.name or check if it is a bot by user.bot

what you're viewing is the string-based object that was converted from the user object to a readable string

mostly used for debugging, though refer to discordpy's docs on what certain objects could have for parameters

[earnest phoenix]

i tried using user.id but it says it has no tuple

or maybe how i could covert this somehow

[rustic nova]

it should be provided correctly, granted that you've obtained it through discordpy

post your lines causing said error

[rustic nova]

code please

[earnest phoenix]

The whole command?

[lyric mountain]

yes

[rustic nova]

most importantly from where you're defining user to where you're going to use it

[earnest phoenix]

@bot.command(pass_context=True, no_pm=True)
async def closeticket(ctx, * user_author: discord.User):

    channel = bot.get_channel(1026486467071057940)
    author = ctx.author

    db = sqlite3.connect("main.db")
    cursor = db.cursor()

    if not user_author:
        cursor.execute(f"SELECT user_id FROM tickets WHERE user_id={author.id}")
        user = cursor.fetchone()
        if not user:
            return await ctx.send("Nie masz żadnego otwartego zgłoszenia!")
        else:
            cursor.execute(f"DELETE FROM tickets WHERE user_id = {author.id}")
            await author.send("Zgłoszenie zostało zamknięte, a reszta danych usunięte.")
            embed = discord.Embed(description=f"ID: {author.id}")
            embed.set_author(name=f"{author.name} ZAMKNĄŁ SWOJE ZGŁOSZENIE", icon_url=author.avatar_url)
            await channel.send(embed=embed)
    else:
        print(user_author.id)
        cursor.execute(f"SELECT user_id FROM tickets WHERE user_id={user_author.id}")
        user = cursor.fetchone()
        if not user:
            return await ctx.send("Wybrany użytkownik nie ma otwartego zgłoszenia!")
        else:
            cursor.execute(f"DELETE FROM tickets WHERE user_id = {user_author.id}")
            await user_author.send("Zgłoszenie zostało zamknięte, a reszta danych usunięte.")
            embed = discord.Embed(description=f"ID: {user_author.id}")
            embed.set_author(name=f"{user_author.name} ZAMKNĄŁ SWOJE ZGŁOSZENIE", icon_url=user_author.avatar_url)
            await channel.send(embed=embed)

    db.commit()
    cursor.close()
    db.close()

[rustic nova]

so as far as I'm seeing, the user provided is through the user that used the command right?

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

[rustic nova]

what's the difference between author and user_author btw

one if the message author, the other one the ticket or

[earnest phoenix]

author = User that used a command
user_author = Given id when calling a command e.g. !closeticket <id>

[rustic nova]

ohhh

[earnest phoenix]

yeah...

I'm slowly breaking down over this

[rustic nova]

so discordpy automatically converts it to a user?

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

[rustic nova]

sounds dangerous ngl

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah XD

Kinda

But it works somehow

[rustic nova]

wanna like, try to fetch a user yourself? would be my guess

[earnest phoenix]

But still idk why i can't use this id

I'll try this

[fickle arch]

Alright, I'll try this, thanks!

[rustic nova]

even though it should theoretically work

you could also ensure its the correct type by using type(user_author) and echoing that back

because a tuple is not the same thing as a discord.User and would explain your error

since you cant obtain values within a tuple through string based indexes/attributes, only by number indexes

Its an older book

but its still hella useful for basics

Good stick to it I will do it differently. Anyway the question I have is an important one. If I don't have Message Intents then what can't the bot do?

[rustic nova]

read message contents it was not pinged in

[sharp geyser]

Get message content

thats literally all the Message Content Intent does

it just denies the ability to read the content of messages it wasnt mentioned in

[rustic nova]

you will still get the events

just not the content

[sharp geyser]

just the content will be undefined

[earnest phoenix]

So if I'm doing technical support in private messages bot, then I would need Message Intent?

[sharp geyser]

I think dms still get it

I dont remember

[earnest phoenix]

So does he need one?

[sharp geyser]

If its in DMs no

[rustic nova]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#message-content-intent

[sharp geyser]

You're free to keep it disabled

Anything in a guild though if you wanna read message content outside of messages the bot is pinged in then yes

[earnest phoenix]

I would love to but I don't know why without it my bot doesn't respond to any commands on the servers. Only in private message.

[rustic nova]

well as the message content intent says

[sharp geyser]

You need the GUILDS intent for receiving the messageCreate event in servers

[rustic nova]

commands will not work if you're talking about - for example

unless you're doing something like @Aurel closeticket

[sharp geyser]

without the GUILDS intent messageCreate wont fire in guilds

[earnest phoenix]

oh okay

[rustic nova]

Any fields affected by the message content intent are noted in the relevant documentation. For example, the content, embeds, attachments, and components fields in message objects all contain message content and therefore require the intent.
...
Apps without the intent will receive empty values in fields that contain user-inputted content with a few exceptions:

Content in messages that an app sends
Content in DMs with the app
Content in which the app is mentioned

[earnest phoenix]

Big thanks

[boreal iron]

Actually you need GUILD_MESSAGES (too)

The intent GUILD does not include messages

[sharp geyser]

That’s a intent?

Damn proves what I know

Hey Fake wanna do half of my custom Halloween bot /s

[boreal iron]

Man… pigs will learn to fly before I ever touch TS or python

Also im always busy unfortunately

Can’t even get my own shit done

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[sharp geyser]

Tim hey buddy

Should I even bother with caching (gotta love autocorrect) messages for a rpg bot?

All I plan on doing as of right now is just listening for messages but I don't necessarily need those messages after

[wheat mesa]

If you have no use for them afterwards, no reason to cache them

Though I thoroughly believe you’ll probably need to cache them at some point for an rpg bot

[nocturne dagger]

Hey there, I cannot figure out how to fetch a message for the live of me on the newest discord.js

I am doing

const msg: GiveawayMsgType = await client.channels.cache.get(giveawayDetails.channel).messages.fetch(giveaway.id)

.channel is the channel id

.id is the msg ID

I am sure its a small change I am missing but I can't find it in the docs at all.

[wheat mesa]

What’s the error?

(Or is it just not working?)

[sharp geyser]

Should I just store the messages on the channel class then waffle?

[wheat mesa]

Idk

I should get back to my physics homework

[nocturne dagger]

No error just not actually fetching anything

I changed it to

(await client.guilds.cache
          .get("889928598927073412")
          ?.channels.cache.get("889928599552028714")) as TextChannel
      )?.messages.fetch("1027730505434681355");

but its undefined

[wheat mesa]

Those channels/guilds probably aren’t cached

[nocturne dagger]

the message is being fetched on start up

or, it was created while the bot is running

[wheat mesa]

Log the values of those guilds and channels

One of them is probably undefined and therefore ending the chain early

[nocturne dagger]

Yea ur right

but what is weird is that up to guild it just logs the guild id

and then obviously the channel would be undefined if its just a guild ID

[rustic nova]

then the guild isnt cached

is what I'm guessing

[boreal iron]

All this weird chaining…

Why do you even access the guild cache then access the channel cache?

you can access the cached channels directly as property of your client

[nocturne dagger]

I tried that as well

as client.channels.cache(id)

did not work either

[sharp geyser]

Its almost as if you can't use .fetch

😮

[boreal iron]

Use fetch to get the channel once it’s not cached

[sharp geyser]

Relying on things being cached is a surefire way to failure

Now then time to figure out how I wanna handle event listening

[boreal iron]

Unless you’re 100% sure it’s cached

Because you did so earlier for example

[sharp geyser]

I am now realizing how lazy I am and dont wanna write a caching system that will work for anything

[nocturne dagger]

I am fetching all channels, messages, and guilds on startup already

[sharp geyser]

What in the fuck

[boreal iron]

What’s the reason of fetching the guilds for example when they already being provided with the ready event

I mean fetch will access the cache anyways before doing a request but this doesn’t make it less confusing

Not to mention that your action may result in a major rate limitation you will suffer from later on for example when trying to fetch another channel/message etc. like you did in your code example

[nocturne dagger]

Ok, put it simply, I just need to get a msg so i can edit it

[wheat mesa]

Fetch the message via its id

[nocturne dagger]

but something changed from v13 to now

[wheat mesa]

client.messages.fetch

That simple

[nocturne dagger]

Tried that and it broke, maybe I'm being stupid ill try again

[wheat mesa]

Await it

It’s a promise

[nocturne dagger]

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'fetch')

const msg: any = await client.messages.fetch(giveaway.id);

[wheat mesa]

Oh yeah I forgot messages isn’t a thing on djs

[nocturne dagger]

Messages does not exist as a type on client either

Yea thats the issue haha

[wheat mesa]

You’ll need to fetch the channel and then fetch the message from there

[nocturne dagger]

After about 20
// @ts-ignore

it worked!

[boreal iron]

Ask yourself why you use ts in the first place

[sharp geyser]

messages arent attached to the client only channels iirc

[quartz kindle]

if youre doing that right after creating the client, the channel is not gonna be cached yet

you would need to do it in the ready event

[boreal iron]

Has anybody ever found out how mobile browsers utilize the feature to switch between a desktop/mobile version of the site?

[solemn latch]

Like a m.site.com?

[boreal iron]

It does not fake it’s screen resolution

[boreal iron]

No, that has nothing to do with my question at all lol

Detecting the screen size or user agent and redirect the client has nothing to do with that

Browsers like safari or Firefox on mobile offer the functionality to show the desktop version of a site or mobile version (you can switch back and forth)

[solemn latch]

The browser doesnt control that does it?
the site does, All it(the browser) does as far as I can tell it detects the viewport scale.

[boreal iron]

There aren’t much sites supporting this functionality but I yet couldn’t figure out what exactly happens in the background

No the viewport doesn’t change as well as the screen size

Nothing is faked by the browser

To emulate a desktop client

There must be something else I don’t think of

[solemn latch]

Well, css only checks viewport size/scale right?

for media queries

Your backend wont know that though

Ie a brower will process the css as if its viewport is 1920x1080 but the viewport might only be 900x300 or something.

(which would be called viewport scaling iirc)

But I'm not a web developer and could be 1000% wrong

[boreal iron]

I’m not sure if that is handled via css
I somehow guess it’s a specific browser feature you have to build and use

[solemn latch]

My site does not account for it and it does it fine

Just using media queries for the responsive layout

[boreal iron]

Yes, me too

Which results in using that browser feature actually does nothing

But it’s sometimes a good thing or necessarily to get to view the desktop version

[solemn latch]

🤔 are you saying the desktop switch doesn't work for your site or it does?

[boreal iron]

It does not lol

The browser does not fake or emulate a different screen size and does not report a different viewport

IT DOES SOMETHING but idk what

[solemn latch]

ah, it works for me just using media queries.

Which leads back to my original question, is your mobile version using a seperate mobile site(ie, m.site.com)? or using media queries for a responsive layout between desktop and mobile.

[boreal iron]

I’m just using media queries

Anything relies on the reported screen size of the client

[solemn latch]

Is your media queries set to the standard size for between mobile and desktop?

I cant remember what that is, but there is a standard media query size

[boreal iron]

Wut

The default layout is of course the mobile view and various media queries catch screen sizes larger than XX

[solemn latch]

1280px wide is the standard resolution to start displaying a desktop version.

If the desktop flag sets the width to 1280px wide, and your media queries show the mobile version at that width it wont do anything.

[boreal iron]

It’s actually 1200 if I’m not wrong

And no the client doesn’t report a different screen size when using that switch

[solemn latch]

It might be, 1280 is what mine is set to

the client wouldnt would it?

[boreal iron]

You can find That out yourself

Just open the site and use the switch and debug the parameters your client provides

[boreal iron]

Even if so, my media queries catching view ports larger 480px or 960px would be triggered if 1280px really would be the case instead of 1200px

But that’s also not the case

Which means the browser does not emulate a different screen size

[solemn latch]

I'm not sure what else it would be then

[boreal iron]

Makes us already two

Who don’t know that dirty secret

[solemn latch]

🤔 So, just playing around with my css files.

@media only screen and (max-width: 980px) { allowed the desktop setting to work.
@media only screen and (max-width: 979px) { did not allow it to work.

(using chrome)

Other browsers might use other levels

[boreal iron]

playing around with a max width is a horrifying solution

You should always use min widths

Scaling it towards a desktop size showing the mobile version by default

[solemn latch]

My site requires a desktop

You can't create webhooks on mobile

[boreal iron]

[solemn latch]

That's a discord limitation not mine

[proven lava]

Long time top.gg user, first time joiner...

In discussion with my DAO team, we envisioned collecting the "shared servers" of Discord members to sort of 'word cloud'-esque map of server populations. I am wondering if Top.gg has anything like this already in the works, or if someone here might have a point of contact for a commission or collaboration?

For example, if you put in the uid of all members of a channel on Discord, it could create a map with all their servers (or at least all those shared by 2+ members) that shows the relative population crossover

[sharp geyser]

Will someone give an example of some command that requires Message Content Intent to work? Besides Automod

[sharp geyser]

Any command that takes response back

[boreal iron]

Actually not anymore since modals exist as direct way to response

[sharp geyser]

Hey fake

Fuck off

:)

[boreal iron]

Even if they’re lacking a lot of field types

[sharp geyser]

Do modals work on mobile yet

[boreal iron]

They work on mobile since they got introduced

[sharp geyser]

Wait discord actually added something on launch with mobile support

no fucking way

Discord never supports the cool shit on mobile

[boreal iron]

Just android users were fucked using the old client iirc but who gives a fuck about them

[sharp geyser]

still waiting for the codeblocks to be syntax highlighted

and mfs got modals

[boreal iron]

True and optionally being able to click them to open a full screen, scrollable overlay

[sharp geyser]

[boreal iron]

That would be nice tbh

Is mongodb a good database for bots in more than 1000 guilds

Or are there other better databases in terms of performance

[earnest phoenix]

MongoDB isn't really good for scalability, so you'll have a hard time with performance and similar stuff, if you want a good and scalable database then you should use PostgreSQL

[deft rock]

Good morning,
I have 2 things to ask

1. Does anyone have a document that I can setup/host my own lavahost (music)

2. [error] Unhandled exception : 'user is not allowed to do action [find] on [test.guilds]' Does anyone know what went wrong?

[earnest phoenix]

Lavahost? Do you mean hosting a Lavalink server?

[deft rock]

Im not sure. I was told to use this lavahost thingy for music for my bot

[earnest phoenix]

There's no such thing as Lavahost, you're looking for a Lavalink server
https://darrennathanael.com/post/how-to-lavalink/

thank you. Anyidea for my 2nd question?

This isn't specifically about development but just shooting my shot

My VPS' connection just fails

It doesn't shutdown

It just can't send any requests

Or receive

This happens about once a day for 5-10 mins

I saw using uptimerobot it happened twice within 30 minutes

1 minute downtime and 4 minutes

[deft rock]

I don't use atlas but I might know the issue. I'll brb

[earnest phoenix]

The same issue can also occur in the MongoDB drivers, the one you're currently using right now

[boreal iron]

Is it possible to connect to the server via SSH/RDP within that period of time?

[surreal sage]

Was a datacenter issue but nah

All connections r dead

[urban cape]

https://pastebin.com/N0XZ1tq8
I get a ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE
when calling /movies/xx
I dont know why
(I hope there isnt any passwords in there)
(I removed all unnecesary parts)

I make a file ready with a websocket
and then I request data to /movies/xx
but then it gives me an error empty response

[urban cape]

I see in the console that I have a request, but in the browser or with curl it doesnt send anything

[earnest phoenix]

can you dm me templates of multiporpse discord bots

[lyric mountain]

We dont do that here

[radiant kraken]

you can use any top.gg bot as a template

[lyric mountain]

If you have passwords in there then that's an issue

[quartz kindle]

you know you can just do this:

    app.get('/movies/:xx', async (req, res) => {
       
        var reqResource = req.params.xx;

[urban cape]

Sure, but that doesnt explain the error, locally via http it does work, via https not.

[solemn latch]

local https?

[urban cape]

Not tried, I am working on that

[boreal iron]

self signed probably

[urban cape]

I have certbot

I cant make it work via https

[solemn latch]

Why not use a reverse proxy like nginx?

[urban cape]

I thought having cloudflare was enough

[quartz kindle]

you have cloudflare flexible ssl?

or strict?

[urban cape]

strict

Everyother webpage works but just not the movie one

[quartz kindle]

but it works if you bypass cloudflare?

[urban cape]

Yes

[quartz kindle]

you said it worked locally, like using localhost?

[urban cape]

bypassing cloudflare does work over http

[urban cape]

yes

[quartz kindle]

hmm

what if you turn off cloudflare and access your website normally?

[urban cape]

I can try that

I just changed the DNS settings, now its time to wait

[urban cape]

Doesnt work either

So it just does not work over https

but why

[lyric mountain]

perhaps ur ssl is configured wrongly

also, you should use cloudflare origin certificate instead

[urban cape]

That should not be the case.
First I had that my code would read a file smaller than 2gb and it worked.
A couple of days ago I worked out how to get a buffer from a 3gb file and it is not working anymore.
That cant be a ssl issue
I couldn't find evidence that the extra 1gb is a problem.

[lyric mountain]

wait, 1gb?

what is ur api for?

[urban cape]

I have a hard disk full of movie. I want to read the movies for personal use. (It is not illegal).
So my api sends out sometimes 3gb out of movie data.

[lyric mountain]

are u sending it as a stream?

[urban cape]

return res.end(moviebuffer, "binary")

I dont think so

[lyric mountain]

well, that could be the issue

if ur api takes too long to return an answer, the connection may close prematurely

aka "pipe broken"

[solemn latch]

Also, cloudflare has file limitations

[urban cape]

I know, I have my settinjgs on DNS only

[lyric mountain]

fo anything bigger than 1gb you should consider using a stream instead

[urban cape]

Ok, i can try

[urban cape]

Still the same error

[lyric mountain]

what kind of value are u returning?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13106096/stream-files-in-node-express-to-client this is what u should use

[quartz kindle]

thats a big nono

you should never use buffers for large files

always use streams

unless the chunking code you're using only returns small buffers

[lyric mountain]

I also imagine 2 simultaneous requests would crash the api due to OOM

[urban cape]

Yeay, it is personal use with password. So nobody can use it except me 🙂

[lyric mountain]

still

[urban cape]

It worked for 1.8gb files so I didnt complain. Then when the files get larger fs.readFileSync thought it was to large. ugh
Then I could not make it work anymore

[quartz kindle]

again, use streams

never use buffers for large files

[urban cape]

Ok, I am working on it. I come back when I cant get it to work.

[quartz kindle]

    const headers = {
        "Content-Range": `bytes ${start}-${end}/${videoSize}`,

        "Content-Type": "video/mp4",
    };
    res.writeHead(206, headers);
    const videoStream = fs.createReadStream(videoPath, { start, end });
    videoStream.pipe(res);

this will read only the specific chunk from disk and stream it directly to the response, so it doesnt need to store anything in memory

[umbral lake]

yes but I need to add the port no?

[quartz kindle]

replit uses dynamic ports

[lament rock]

that env var is the port replit exposes

[quartz kindle]

the correct port is saved in the env variable

[umbral lake]

then I have nothing but it will be working?

[lament rock]

yup

[umbral lake]

oh ok ok, I will test, thx

[lament rock]

its a built in env var

[quartz kindle]

the env port is done automatically, its not a custom env

its built in by replit

I mean, 3gb in ram isnt that bad

when starting to write the code on a normal pc I had 80gb in ram

[lyric mountain]

80?

[quartz kindle]

i mean, why use 3gb ram when you can use 50mb instead

[urban cape]

I had every movie on my hdd in ram

[quartz kindle]

lmao wtf

[urban cape]

not the smartest plan

[lyric mountain]

...don't u mean 8gb?

[quartz kindle]

how much ram do you jave?

[urban cape]

no 80

[urban cape]

128

[lyric mountain]

80 ain't achievable no matter how I look at it

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[lyric mountain]

128??

[quartz kindle]

i mean

[urban cape]

Little overkill pc

[quartz kindle]

thats just 4x 32gb sticks

[urban cape]

Yes

[quartz kindle]

pretty common these days

if you can afford :^)

[urban cape]

And after I added another batch of movies, I had 330gb

[lyric mountain]

that's like, not something u can call "normal pc"

[urban cape]

Its not normal, but more and more "common"

[lyric mountain]

only for first world countries ig lul

around here 32gb is already considered a lot

[quartz kindle]

i have a laptop with 8gb xd

[urban cape]

I have a "small" server with 8gb

[quartz kindle]

my vps has 2gb

:^)

[lyric mountain]

and to think mere 20 years ago we were reaching impressive 16gb hdds

[quartz kindle]

i had a quantum fireball 3.2gb

[urban cape]

I have another small question.
I have now a video element on html and when I want to skip to a certain part it loades the whole movie.
Anyway to avoid that
(I do it on html, because with some flags enable in browser you can select your audio track and because dvd had multiple audio tracks, i wanted that to.)

[quartz kindle]

the progress bar should be linked to the chunking

so when you click on it, the correct chunk should be calculated and requested

i never really did that myself so i dont know the specifics

[urban cape]

I just skipepd from 00:00 to 1:11:43 and it wont go after getting 600mb

almost fully loaded

lmao

I hate html

[quartz kindle]

are you using a player library or are you coding your own html player?

[urban cape]

just my own html

[quartz kindle]

maybe this will help

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/Audio_and_video_delivery/buffering_seeking_time_ranges

[urban cape]

I was on the exact same site

lol

[quartz kindle]

but from what om reading, you might have to use advanced stuff

the html5 player doesnt give you much control

most players use stuff like mpeg dash and hls

code as u8 as char

Chars can't be larger than a u8 anyways so you're just making it harder to read the code

u can also simply make ur own api, shouldn't be too hard

[jovial nimbus]

I want something ready

[lyric mountain]

well, most will be paid (for obvious reasons)

[jovial nimbus]

Explain more

[lyric mountain]

you see, apis that allow file upload inherently need high storage space, and to be able to sustain a high amount of users they either
A - have paid plans
B - have very low per-user allowed capacity
C - have very low file lifetime

else someone could just upload a ton of junk to purposely fill their storage capacity

and yes, there are people who would do that just to see the world burn

[jovial nimbus]

true I know that, and I assure you you're right

[boreal iron]

The object key is called creation not created

At least that’s what I can see in your screenshot

filter((item) => Date.now() - item.creation * 1000 < 300000)

Same like yours but multiplying instead a division to prevent floats

How, when, why?

[sharp geyser]

so if you break it yourself it wont run

[ocean jay]

Hello I've been stuck on this error and tried a lot of methods but still dunno

[lyric mountain]

What's even the point of it then?

[dry imp]

yea i know but its damn useless

[sharp geyser]

Apparently this is as old as python

Well haku

[lyric mountain]

Lmao this is more useless than do...while

[sharp geyser]

it was modeled after how loops would work if you used labels and if statements instead

[pale vessel]

do...while is useful if you want to run the code at least once before checking the conditions

[lyric mountain]

Well, u can always just Initialize the variable as 1 less

But it at least has a niche use

[sharp geyser]

def basic_syntax_while():
  x = 0
  # START_LABEL
  if x < 3:
    # break means GOTO END_LABEL
    x += 1
    # GOTO START_LABEL
  else:
    print("DONE")
  # END_LABEL

This is the example the guy used to illustrate how it was envisioned to work

[dry imp]

misty, why did u learn this

[sharp geyser]

I was bored

else in the case of for/else should be named to nobreak because it only gets run if there is no break keyword in the loop

:p

It's not working plz help

Coz of 2 collon it's not working any other way to add collon to my input

Why do you put 2 :, just use one and place the name before and ID after that

</play input:0> - </play input:0>

[radiant kraken]

use a f string

also use __slots__, it minimizes the object's size in memory

[olive arrow]

[dry imp]

true smh aurel use f string

or use format()

[radiant kraken]

disgusting

unless you're making it backwards-compatible to Python < 3.6, there is no reason not to use f-strings

[crystal wigeon]

Hey is there a way i can set a custom property on "MessageButton"?

i added the types but when i click on a button i dont see my custom properties

[boreal iron]

As long as your structure is cached/in memory you can attach/add whatever you like to it

As well as overwriting/deleting properties etc

What actually is a “message button” for you?

You’re speaking about message components -> buttons?

guys does anyone knows any good discord bot hosting which is free or very cheap(under 5$) with which i caqn deploy code from github

[dry imp]

what specs

[eternal osprey]

i am not allowed to use any libs

char arr[] = {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z',

     r++;
    if(!input.eof()){
     
      matches_found = false;
     individual = input.get();
    a = ((individual >= 32 && individual < 128) ? (individual - 32 - (r % (128 - 32)) + (128 - 32)) % (128 - 32) + 32 : individual);
        for(int i = 0; i < 56; i++){
      cout <<a;
    if(a == arr[i]){
     //code
    }else{
      //code
    }
     }
   
    }```I need to implement a code that would basically check if each character in the file that gets decrypted to variable a, is in the array. If that's the case, it will stop. Else it will keep on moving on and incrementing the r. However right now it doesn't work as i don't know what code to add to the last if statements.

[graceful cobalt]

any specs over 1gb ram and a good cpu ( my bot has 100 commands and is in 170 servers)

but id still recommend hetzner even though its more expensive

doesnt advin have like 2gb for 2 bucks?

[spark flint]

yes

hetzner is good as well

apart from their invoices

[dry imp]

the plans dissapear on my end

go to micro kvm vps

its still there

[dry imp]

go buy it

it doesnt exists on the store

[quartz kindle]

hmm

[dry imp]

i bought it before i know there is that plan on the amsterdam kvm standart vps group

not there anymore tho

[eternal osprey]

would anyone know what do tho? Because i am like totally stuck

[quartz kindle]

youre right, its not there

[cinder patio]

you can write a function yourself

[eternal osprey]

i have done this. But i don't know how to proceed

i am mainly trying to read a file and get all the characters. Then i want to check if each one of those characters is in the array.

because imagine i do: c++ if(a == arr[i]){ bool_var = true; }else{ bool_var = false } it might work for 1 character, but the file contains like 20 characters or so

[earnest phoenix]

You could simply use std::find() for arrays, for example:

Foo foo[10];

Foo *bar = std::find(
  std::begin(foo),
  std::end(foo),
  baz // Element you're looking for.
);

bool found = bar != std::end(foo);

[cinder patio]

Why are you using a variable? if it's equal then stop, otherwise continue the loop

those are your conditions right

[eternal osprey]

yeah

those are my conditions indeed

the only problem atm, is that if the first is equal it will stop the whole loop, However there are lots of other characters in the file that didn't loop yet.

[cinder patio]

well what do you mean by "stop"

stop what?

[eternal osprey]

should i give you some background info?

[cinder patio]

Tell me what do you want to stop

[eternal osprey]

{}:}|"}|463262"}```imagine i have this file. I will need to create a function that will find the number r where all these characters are normal characters (that are in the array). This is an assignment about encrypting/decrypting using OTP and i already got the function to calculate the decrypted character.

[eternal osprey]

i only want to stop the loop if ALL characters are in the array

else i want to increment the r

not sure if you get me

please ping me if anyone knows the answer.

[radiant kraken]

i've literally just sent him that

[earnest phoenix]

Ah I didn't look at your linked SO thread, didn't know it included that

[radiant kraken]

then you can use a simple for-loop

[wheat mesa]

is he searching through an array for an element?

Just do a linear search, or binary if you know the array is sorted

[eternal osprey]

yeah i have done this but the issue is that I only want to stop the loop if all the characters are in the array

[earnest phoenix]

Then count the amount of characters that have been found in the array, and stop when it's the expected amount of characters

[eternal osprey]

char arr[] = {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z',
'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P', 'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', ' ', '!', ',', '.', '-'};
 bool matches_found = false;
 bool stop_counter = false;
  char individual;
  while(!stop_counter){
     r++;
    if(!input.eof()){
     
      matches_found = false;
     individual = input.get();
    a = ((individual >= 32 && individual < 128) ? (individual - 32 - (r % (128 - 32)) + (128 - 32)) % (128 - 32) + 32 : individual);
        for(int i = 0; i < 56; i++){
      cout <<a;
    if(a == arr[i]){
     //code
    }else{
      //code
    }
     }
   
    }```so what this code does is that it decrypts a file. The file with the chars are already given, but i now need to find the r of the above formula that they used for encrypting

[eternal osprey]

okay i will retry it rn

[earnest phoenix]

Also you may want to use a formatter like clang-format, it might also be supported by the editor you use already

[eternal osprey]

//above the code when it reloops as not all characters are equal it will set the counter to 0.
  if(a == arr[i]){
    counter++;
if(counter == 30731){
   cout << "done";
   stop_counter = true;
}```Only issue with this is that it keeps on looping. Even with only 2 characters it keeps loopin forever. Even if the 30731 is set to 2 in this case

[radiant kraken]

voltrex, stop promoting llvm programs

[eternal osprey]

Yeah i will. I already have one but usually only format at the end.

[earnest phoenix]

Hehehe, never!

[radiant kraken]

it's like "Oh you're trying to learn JavaScript? then you should use our popular Node.js runtime, where you don't have to use a browser to use JavaScript"

[earnest phoenix]

Oh just because I mention a popular project/program that they could use I'm somehow trying to self-promote or something? I'm just helping

[pine nova]

💀

[earnest phoenix]

I know that I'm a member of the LLVM Developer Group but that doesn't mean I can't mention it's projects/libraries when applicable

[radiant kraken]

helping what

[earnest phoenix]

Their formatting is off-putting, so it's harder to read to help out

[cinder patio]

could be discord fucking up the formatting

it does it to me

[radiant kraken]

it's normal since they are quite new to c++

[earnest phoenix]

In this case I'm sure it's not because of Discord

[radiant kraken]

it sends an embed

[earnest phoenix]

...

[civic scroll]

what do you want

[earnest phoenix]

Have you tried logging user.lastVoted and see it actually updates when you vote?

And assuming user.lastVoted is a timestamp, it'll always be lower than Date.now() and since you're subtracting them, you're working with negative numbers here or if that's what you intended on doing

[wheat mesa]

man I wanna rewrite some of the components in my ECS to not be as messy

perhaps I should have a lot of systems that do specific tasks instead of one big system that does a lot of tasks

[wild mist]

im trying to refresh a discord oauth token, but this is returning unknown grant type for me. anything wrong?

[cursive musk]

    let DBL_INTERVAL = 43200000;
    let lastVoted = user && user.lastVoted ? user.lastVoted : 0;
    let checkDBLVote = Date.now() - lastVoted < DBL_INTERVAL;

[flat copper]

how can i set middleware on a single path like:
like it calls it whenever /api is called
/api/1
/api/2
/api/3

in express

[earnest phoenix]

That looks correct to me, are you sure you're making the POST request to the correct endpoint?

[wild mist]

if im posting to incorrect url the response should be different

[earnest phoenix]

Actually the incorrect oauth2 endpoints would give kinda the same response because of the grant type, are you making the POST request to /oauth2/token?

[wild mist]

using @discordjs/rest and discord-api-types

[earnest phoenix]

Weird, then I don't see why that error would be given as the response, it feels like it's an issue from @discordjs/rest

[wild mist]

well, it is fine when im requesting first token

just no for refreshing it

i dont see it a package problem

[eternal osprey]

Ya my formatting is just fucked indeed.

[earnest phoenix]

Maybe try asking in https://discord.gg/discord-developers , the documentation might be outdated or something

[wild mist]

they ignored me, asked like 3 times no response

[eternal osprey]

Did anyone find the answer on this btw

[cursive musk]

@earnest phoenix this should be correct right?

[earnest phoenix]

Those are correct yes, but unrelated to what I just said; check if the lastVoted value actually updates when you vote, and swap the subtraction positions, user.lastVoted - Date.now() -> Date.now() - user.lastVoted in the initial code you showed

[feral aspen]

Can this random() method be put on a seperate class and be called from there?
https://cdn.hamoodihajjiri.com/U5UVRG2jTP

Learning more about Java. :)

[wheat mesa]

remove the semicolons after each set of {}

you don't need them

[feral aspen]

Can't think of a better way than this: https://cdn.hamoodihajjiri.com/jxvf4kjkki .

[wheat mesa]

huh?

Why not just do RandomPassword.random(10)

No need for a constructor for a class that only contains static methods

[rustic nova]

Yeah isnt really necessary to initialize a new object for that

[feral aspen]

Hm.. really?

[rustic nova]

better to just make it a static method

[feral aspen]

It's shorter though?

[wheat mesa]

It's worse for performance

[feral aspen]

Or it's not best practice?

[wheat mesa]

And it's a bad practice

You should only ever use new for objects that need to be instantiated because they keep track of some sort of data

This method doesn't need any object specific data

[feral aspen]

Sweet.

Lastly, when should I be using static and when should I instantiate a new object?

All I know for now is that static just makes my life easier, but I haven't understood the correct difference.

[earnest phoenix]

You should declare them as static if you want to use them without instantiating a new instance of the class

Otherwise don't mark them as static, as it'll then become a prototype property/method

Other than that it doesn't really matter, because the performance difference is basically almost the same, just the semantic usage is different

[surreal sage]

You've got an array with strings, see the strings as an authentication or proxy list

I want to iterate over that array, each time it should run a function (promise) and wait for it to resolve or reject before continuing with the next item

I know the javascript is full of crap

And isn't async

So how would I?

[earnest phoenix]

For that you need to be inside an async function, because that's how asynchronous operations work, not just limited to JavaScript

[surreal sage]

So if I would for loop the array, it would indeed wait til it has been completed correct?

await func(item)

[earnest phoenix]

Yes it would wait until the promise of the called function is resolved before going to the next iteration

[surreal sage]

What if the function returned another promise?

As in resolved another promise*

[wheat mesa]

Performance difference is not the same. One instantiates an object that the gc has to clean up, whereas the other just creates a call to a method afaik

In small scenarios like that yeah it's fine, but definitely not good practice

[surreal sage]

The process wouldn't be kept alive for a long time

[earnest phoenix]

That's not what I meant in that case, I meant like the performance of static and non-static functions are the same (not talking about class instantiation)

[surreal sage]

Not a production thing

[wheat mesa]

Ah

I see

[surreal sage]

It's just: Complete those tasks and kill your self (process.exit 😅)

[earnest phoenix]

It'll resolve all the returned promises, and return the resolved value

[surreal sage]

It'll just keep resolving the promises until there is no promise to resolve?

[earnest phoenix]

Yes

[surreal sage]

Pretty much what I want 😄

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh6lK57Cuk4

[earnest phoenix]

Every language has it's own weird history in some ways

[surreal sage]

Is this the same with .forEach?

[earnest phoenix]

The forEach() method does not wait until the promises are resolved, it keeps going to the next iterations regardless

[sharp geyser]

No

[surreal sage]

That's pretty !awesome
