you can use a library like gif-encoder-2 with canvas to create a gif

also consider reformatting your code, isn't too readable

no, but u can compose a gif with the individual frames
earnest phoenix
also consider reformatting your code, isn't too readable

the annotation above @venady?
i removed it and still same err
slender wagon
Oh ok, so basically what i am trying to do is get an image and over it insert a gif i already have and then process it as a gif without losing the gf properties yk
earnest phoenix
ok it worked like a charm
there isn't any problem like this on js i think never thought of it

slender wagon
there isn't any problem like this on js i think never thought of it
you are saying u moved from js to py
earnest phoenix
using both
pale vessel
no problem, indentation is important in python
lyric mountain
but only slightly important 
earnest phoenix
any clues on why this doesnt work?
when i put the variable in a f-string it returns this
rustic nova
what do you mean with putting it in an f string
more code with context would help more
earnest phoenix
a string with a "f" before
that should let me use variables inside it
(according to stackoverflow)
earnest phoenix
lines
lyric mountain
this looks quite normal to me
that object simply doesn't implement toString() method
so it prints the class + address
in js it'd print [object Object]
earnest phoenix
ah
earnest phoenix
`generated`?
it's just some logs to keep up on how many redeem codes were generated total
each redeem code for the bot generated adds a new line in the .txt file (\n 1)
earnest phoenix
for just some lines i don't need it
lyric mountain
well, over time it'll accumulate
lyric mountain
why leave it for later, simply plug a sqlite db there while it's easy to do
pale vessel
but generated is just a number though?
rustic nova
still cant really do much myself with screenshots are barely show any code flow
pale vessel
not sure how it logged this when they only printed a number
lyric mountain
not sure how it logged this when they only printed a number
if (blabla) {
...
// the screenshots
}
...
// where the actual error is and has nothing to do with the screenshot
it's just this code with amount renamed to generated right?
lyric mountain
I have absolutely no idea
pale vessel
I have no clue what that code does either
lyric mountain
the image of the output only shows a very slim line
so idk if it's a message or an embed body
and the code makes no sense as to output that
the output shows InvokableSlashCommand, so they're printing the command itself
pale vessel
then they didn't say what they actually did
slender wagon
do you guys know any gif extractor npm
for the frames
that can handle large files
lyric mountain
How large are we talking?
frosty gale
gif and large dont exactly go well together 💀
solemn latch
because they are inefficent
frosty gale
maybe because thats their whole purpose
delicate zephyr
that can handle large files
this one handles 200MB gifs
takes a while, but it will
frosty gale
i swear gifs are a dying format now since the prehistoric days of the web
now youd loop an mp4
solemn latch
webp animated ❤️
delicate zephyr
svg animated 
solemn latch
you got a point there
delicate zephyr
automatically responsive images are just nut
also being able to change colours to whatever
being able to give specific elements of the svg their own id so you can colour them specifically too
svg's in web are just so much more convienient
lyric mountain
i swear gifs are a dying format now since the prehistoric days of the web
it was supposed to be long dead already
apng exists ffs, yet some browsers dont support it yet
and discord refuses to allow using it for anything except stickers
frosty gale
still remember the random shitty websites back in 2000s that had flashing gifs everywhere and was seen as looking modern
lyric mountain
plot twist: the song "Blinding Lights" was written when the author tried to access a site in early internet
grim aspen
false
there aren't any claims about blinding lights
being an origin of accessing a sight in the early internet
the song is based on the streetlights blinding him while walking down the street while intoxicated

Also what i am trying to do with canvas is get the user input image and insert my large gif over it then cut the gif off based on the user image afterwards send the user the gif
The watermark is a gif
pale vessel
how many entries could there possibly be?
pale vessel
oh then it's perfect if you have an embed field for every entry
of course it could get very long, but it's ephemeral so it wouldn't spam the channel for everyone else
hushed robin
hm
pale vessel
just do
Key: Value
for every entry inside an embed field
pale vessel
yea, add a newline after every one of them, unlike what you have currently
hushed robin
well
pale vessel
since that looks hard to read
hushed robin
i did tried newlines before but it kinda looked really long
pale vessel
yea but if it looks better you should keep it
hushed robin
well lets see
hushed robin
hm ok
pale vessel
or just use the ID as the field name and the details as value
that could also work and doesn't look janky
pale vessel
looks good
hushed robin
this makes me angry
it basically ruins my bot
the bulk endpoint does not give me memberCount even though the docs say it should
pale vessel
maybe you need to provide an additional query parameter?
if not then not much you could do I suppose
hushed robin
maybe i'll complain on their forums
😁
my current bot does a request per group but i wanna do them in bulk
it'll be much less requests
pale vessel
maybe i'll complain on their forums
you should, assuming that this is an unintended behavior
hushed robin
i can make 1 request instead of 48 requests
pale vessel
does it say anywhere that the bulk endpoint doesn't return member count?
hushed robin
no
pale vessel
yea then make a forum post
pale vessel
make sure to ask nicely
hushed robin
yes i am very nice
oh i can't even use the forum category for bugs
i'm not high enough level 😐
hushed robin
well update seems they intentionally removed it https://devforum.roblox.com/t/groups-api-v2-no-longer-returns-membercount/1261359
this sucks 🗿
might just remove it from my bot tbh
I’ve been getting a lot of 429 errors
solemn latch
Would caching api responses work?
hushed robin
no the bot is suppose to update a voice channel with updated data on your groups member count
that would defeat the purpose
solemn latch
How often does that number change? And is it by a lot?
solemn latch
Then it probably doesn't need to be updated extremely often.
A few times a day maybe?
hushed robin
no every 5 minutes
harsh nova
Is it really that important that those stats are 5 minutes accurate? You'll want to increase the time as you are already getting ratelimited and it'll only get worse with more servers
hushed robin
Is it really that important that those stats are 5 minutes accurate? You'll want...
yes
I already have logic setup to do it every 5 minutes
it ain’t changing
harsh nova
But you are getting ratelimited 💀
harsh nova
I’ve been getting a lot of 429 errors
^
harsh nova
Guess that's one way to solve the problem
hushed robin
because whoever made the API is stupid
why would u remove the membercount from the endpoint then not even update the docs
what’s the point of the endpoint if I can’t get the member counts
fuckkkk
harsh nova
The reason they removed it is probably the very same why you want it
harsh nova
The reason they removed it might be that they don't want people to periodically check member counts for purposes such as renaming a voice channel
Only speculating ofc. I don't work at Roblox
hushed robin
but they have other bulk endpoints that provide statistics on games
why wouldn’t they do the same for them too
harsh nova
No clue

Hey there...
Working on a project in Next.js and I am trying to use FontAwesomeIcons however I am running into some issues...
Anytime that I have an icon component within the code, I get a hydration error.
I followed the documentation to a tee and looked on the internet.
I would just use ReactIcons however I need dynamic icons, so it's just easier to use the FA package instead once I can get some help figuring out this hydration error.
I made sure that I don't have a <div> tag in a <p> tag or anything like that
Here is my code and I have a screenshot of the error attached as well
Thanks in advance!!!
import { FontAwesomeIcon } from "@fortawesome/react-fontawesome";
export default function SocialMedia({ details }) {
return (
<div className='text-center md:text-right'>
<h3 className='text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold'>{details.title}</h3>
<div className='text-md md:text-lg mt-1 flex justify-center items-center gap-2'>
<FontAwesomeIcon icon='fa-solid fa-envelope' />
<p>{details.emailAddress}</p>
</div>
<div className='text-md md:text-lg flex justify-center md:justify-end items-center gap-2'>
<FontAwesomeIcon icon='fa-solid fa-phone' />
<p>{details.phoneNumber}</p>
</div>
{details.socialMediaPlatforms.map((platform, index) => (
<div key={index}>
<a href={platform.link} className='text-xl'>
{/* i will put code here i promise :) */}
</a>
</div>
))}
</div>
);
}
And in the _app.js I have the following:
import "@/styles/globals.css";
import { library } from "@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core";
import { fab } from "@fortawesome/free-brands-svg-icons";
import { fas } from "@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons";
library.add(fab, fas);
export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) {
return <Component {...pageProps} />;

civic scroll
you still need to spawn one context then measure it
hushed robin
you still need to spawn one context then measure it
but thats inefficient
civic scroll
you are inefficient
see, the thing is, browsers have different scaling (be pixel density or zoom etc.), leading to the graphics being rendered with different physical size
the only way to determine its size is by actually rendering it
which is, you need to create a context
for fast and efficiency you can use a single canvas context instance for quick calculation, assuming they have the same scaling
you want faster stuffs? consider not bothering with javascript and learn rust / c++ or sth

create a canvas

but if you could resize might as well resize

ah so you can do that

canvas.height = y
canvas.width = x

there's a slight detail about transparency in gif
frosty gale
it obtains a session based url somehow for the video and its literally just like "https://website.com/video/3825/part_number.ts"
lyric mountain
you see, gifs don't support transparency, just like jpeg
cuz gifs are technically animated jpegs
frosty gale
learn something new every day
lyric mountain
what it does is, instead, use the index-0 color as a mask color
so if that color is, for example, black, every single black pixel in the image will be transparent
but for the gif, it'll still be black
this is why transparent gifs are so choppy and aliased
it can also only hold 255 colors
frosty gale
im still not 100% sure what you want to do
hushed robin
why is my image so
so, anyone know why it looks like this? if I remove canvas.width = variable it looks fine
frosty gale
do you want it so a gif plays on top of the image or a single frame of the gif is shown on top of the image
lyric mountain
so i'll have to make the background green
making animated profile cards does have its toll (supposing that's what u want it for)
you'll also make it incredibly dithered depending on the number of colors (and really big, usually 4-5x as big as the sum of the original file sizes)

hushed robin
i think i know why my image looks low quality
is it because i'm sizing up my canvases width from 0

its a regular rate limit, its telling you that you can do 2 requests and you have 0 left, and it will reset in 3.8 seconds
so you probably are allowed for 2 requests every 5 seconds, but you are consistently doing more than that
shadow frigate
I have no idea what's going on then, it's been happening for 12 hours lmao
And I've just began a recode and it only consists of the sharding manager
You want to see the code?
It's just one file and I can't see any loops / reason why it would try to login multiple times
quartz kindle
if you're working with sharding, make sure you are properly queueing shards, as discord only allows one shard to connect every 5 seconds
unless you have a large bot (150k+)
shadow frigate
ohhh
no
28k
const settings = require(`../settings/client.json`);
const { ClusterManager, HeartbeatManager } = require(`discord-hybrid-sharding`);
const manager = new ClusterManager(`./index.js`, {
totalShards: `auto`,
shardsPerClusters: 4,
token: settings.tokens.production,
mode: `process`,
restarts: {
max: 10,
interval: 1000 * 60 * 60 // 1 hour
}
});
manager.extend(
new HeartbeatManager({

We are utilising discord-hybrid-sharding though so we can get clusters
quartz kindle
i dont know the internals of discord-hybrid-sharding, but its not a good idea to override some of their internal stuff, like the heartbeatManager and the timeout
better leave those as defaults
shadow frigate
yea
I'm not sure why they were added tbh
oh actually
it was used so that if a cluster was offline for longer than the interval & missed heartbeats, it would get them back online
sharp geyser
yea thats how that works
The discord gateway needs certain information to perform a reconnect, ovveriding internal stuff like that will not end well
shadow frigate
So I shouldn't have this?
shadow frigate
hmm okay
any idea on the rate limit tho? lmao
I still can't fathom it out
Not sure if this helps but: 'x-ratelimit-scope': [ 'user' ]
I looked on discords api site but I can't really understand it properly
sharp geyser
I haven't touched the discord api or websockets in ages, so I don't know if I will be of any help in this regard.
shadow frigate
it seems like it's trying to launch the same shard at a time.
const settings = require("../settings/client.json");
const { ShardingManager } = require('discord.js');
// Create a new instance of the ShardingManager
const manager = new ShardingManager('./index.js', {
token: settings.tokens.production,
totalShards: 'auto', // Set 'auto' for Discord.js to automatically determine the number of shards
});
// Spawn the shards
manager.spawn();
// Listen for the 'shardCreate' event to know when each shard is ready
manager.on('shardCreate', (shard) => {
console.log(`Launched shard ${shard.id}`);
});
I'm trying it using the Discord.js package instead and it does the same thing.
Launched shard 0

yup
quartz kindle
thats just an uncaught promise
nothing about the actual limit
can you manually make a request to the discod api using a rest client?
if so, try fetching the gateway endpoint, and maybe then you can see the actual rate limit information
but usually when you get limited on the gateway itself, it usually lasts for 24 hours
shadow frigate
I've got it working on my testing one
It's a problem with the production environment or something
Back to this one (using discord-hybrid-sharding):
const settings = require(`../settings/client.json`);
const { ClusterManager } = require(`discord-hybrid-sharding`);
const manager = new ClusterManager(`./manager.js`, {
totalShards: `auto`,
shardsPerClusters: 4,
token: settings.tokens.production,
mode: `process`,
restarts: {
max: 10,
interval: 1000 * 60 * 60 // 1 hour
}
});
manager.on(`clusterCreate`, cluster => {
console.log(`[clusters ${cluster.id}] Cluster has been launched.`);
cluster.on(`spawn`, () => {
console.log(`[Cluster ${cluster.id}] Cluster has been spawned.`);
});
});
manager.on(`debug`, message => {
console.log(`[Manager][Debug]${message}`);
});
try { manager.spawn({ timeout: -1 }); }
catch (error) { console.error(error); }
module.exports = manager;
This is the manager file:
const { GClient } = require(`gcommands`);
const { GatewayIntentBits } = require(`discord.js`);
const { ClusterClient, getInfo } = require(`discord-hybrid-sharding`);
const { join } = require(`path`);
const settings = require(`../settings/client.json`);
const client = new GClient({
dirs: [
join(__dirname, `commands`),
join(__dirname, `events`)
],
intents: [
GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
GatewayIntentBits.GuildMembers,
GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages
],
partials: [`CHANNEL`, `MESSAGE`, `REACTION`, `USER`],
shards: getInfo().SHARD_LIST,
shardCount: getInfo().TOTAL_SHARDS
});
client.cluster = new ClusterClient(client);
let environment = process.env.NODE_ENV;
if(!environment) environment = 'staging';
try { client.login(settings.tokens[environment]) }
catch (error) { console.error(error) }
module.exports.client = client;
if the code is the same in test and in prod but the problem only happens in prod, then it could be a cloudflare ip ban
although those should only last for 1 hour
shadow frigate
yeah i have no idea
quartz kindle
you're only running it once right? you're not using anything like pm2 cluster mode or similar

Btw you can use the slash command builder (SlashCommandBuilder) class which is more intuitive to use, it validates input types and also provides good typings to help you catch bugs easily

its a bot i wrote last year and i cba to port it over
i'd have to move over a lot of stuff and i tried in October and gave up
partly because the method i used for disabling buttons no longer works 
earnest phoenix
I can help you migrate to v14 if you want
earnest phoenix
Yeah but you can take the component, and construct new components from them and adjust the data
Basically: new <ComponentClass>(<Component>.toJSON())

ah
brave saddle
The way I do this in JavaScript is just edit the reply and send a new component ...
so your deleting the old button list and adding a new one?

is there any reason why they use it.remove()?

Is that Java?
eternal osprey
yer
earnest phoenix
yer
I don't see why they're removing the current element from the collection through the iterator, especially considering that Java is always pass-by-value, you can't pass-by-reference
If passing-by-reference was possible in Java and it actually was passed by reference, there would be a reason to remove the elements as it would affect the argument passed to the method, but since this isn't the case I don't see a reason for them to do that
I feel like they want to reduce memory usage while the values are being added to the other collection, instead of waiting for the programming language to free it up after the function ends
lyric mountain
Oh wait, nvm, I mistook the context
They do that so the number of elements stay constant

I'm trying to make a global ban list using trello and I'd like to ban the user in all servers the bot is in when they get banned from one.

I'm trying to make a...
right click -> ban member
if u want to ban without using the mouse simply do the same way u do with a command
lyric mountain
same way as making a command
that said, this is a heavily opt-in feature
as it can lead to account ban if done wrong or without consent
wheat mesa
Yeah that gives a lot of power to server moderators
real phoenix
Well the ban system if for a bunch of sub servers in a main server
so the mods of the main server can ban someone from the main and all the sub communites
lyric mountain
then yeah, do it as if u were making a command
you might need to setup express tho
to be able to receive requests from an external service
real phoenix
My current solution is just storing all the servers the bot is in then banning them for each server
not sure how effient that is
lyric mountain
that's how u do it
real phoenix
alr cool
lyric mountain
u cant ban in any other way
lyric mountain
only members with BAN_MEMBERS perm can ban, so using the bot is the only way to achieve it

fun fact, mathjs has their own API so you don't have to use it in your machine and have it potentially crash your bot (not like you could anyway, since you use python)

why tf do you need to use __init__ for a constructor like youre accessing some super secret method that youre not supposed to use

frosty gale
yeah but the underscores
rustic nova
constructor sounds like you're making some sort of blueprint for a class rather than initializing it
frosty gale
actually kinda makes sense
i think they wanted to go with the flow of adding funcitonality to classes
so you can make a class stringify in a special way with __str__
and you can go from there
not a fan of passing the self parameter everywhere though instead of the class doing it automatically

rustic nova
Then Ratelimit headers

pale vessel
because they don't know
hushed robin
but how can I test it to see what it is
pale vessel
every time you make a request, log the timestamp and response from the API
hushed robin
ok
also it’s kinda weird
he told me non residential IPs have a more strict rate limit
pale vessel
maybe that'll give you a glimpse of how much requests you could make under a specific time window
hushed robin
so that means I need to run it on my server to see
which is going to be annoying
😵💫
pale vessel
he told me non residential IPs have a more strict rate limit
motherfucker knows about that but doesn't know the actual rate limits
hushed robin
honestly I'm just going to remove that feature from the bot
the rate limiting is way too strict and it have no scalability

just did some testing and it seems I can make 100 reqursts before getting ratelimited

100 requests under what? a minute?

The thing with a file "safe" is you don't want people to know what you are storing unless you're openly sharing it
So a report system is really out of the question here.
At least
In terms of private files
Publicly displayed files can still be reported, but something else will have to be figured out for anything private
While also not giving off the sense of an invasion of privacy
