development

[frosty gale]

but for some reason it's buggy

so I just use the starlink wifi

[slender wagon]

perhaps a skill issue

starlink?

that's amazing

[frosty gale]

yeah lmfao

we have starlink

[slender wagon]

where do you live

[frosty gale]

it's supposed to be a backup

[slender wagon]

like the exact cordinates

[frosty gale]

florida

[slender wagon]

no i need the full coordinates

[frosty gale]

😳

[slender wagon]

how much do you pay for starlink?

[frosty gale]

I wouldn't know its not mine:)

probably expensive though

it's a backup if the main network goes down

[slender wagon]

isn't it like $100+ a month

can you run my script and see how it does?

with a large apng

[quartz kindle]

set a maximum resolution limit, for example 1080p or 2k whatever
if the given image is bigger than that, either refuse it, or resize it first using a command line program

[slender wagon]

right

[frosty gale]

maybe

[slender wagon]

i updated it and got rid of telegram

https://lukeroberts.tv/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/apng1.png try and use this for the large apng

wait that's not large at all

[frosty gale]

oh lord this will involve me installing canvas and setting up module support

fine only bc im so nice

[slender wagon]

npm i canvas upng-js fs

ez pz

and yes you kind of have to do module support

🤓

[frosty gale]

My wsl node thinks I am running Windows

[slender wagon]

have you got a large gif at around 10 - 15 mb

if yes send it over so i can convert it to apng

[quartz kindle]

why fs

lmao

[slender wagon]

to put it in the directory

when finito

fs.writeFileSync("watermarked.apng", Buffer.from(apngBuffer));

[quartz kindle]

i mean

why install it

its built in

[slender wagon]

oh is it

[quartz kindle]

ye lol

[slender wagon]

that's why it wasn't throwing an error at me when i declared it

Total execution time: 44.562s

with this apng:
https://i.ibb.co/BVnvmWt/WALLPAPER.png

and the cat image

[frosty gale]

i literally cant install canvas lmao

my nodejs thinks I am running windows

when I am infact on linux

[slender wagon]

weird

[slender wagon]

@quartz kindle wanna give it a go?

is it cuz of the changes you have done to your pc?

[quartz kindle]

lmao

is that actual linux or WSL?

[frosty gale]

that's wsl ubuntu

don't know why it's even doing that

[quartz kindle]

lel

[quartz kindle]

maybe? https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/1896

[slender wagon]

https://i.ibb.co/BVnvmWt/WALLPAPER.png

woops

add these:
console.time("Total execution time");
in the beggining of the function
and in the end:
console.timeEnd("Total execution time");

[quartz kindle]

34 seconds

[slender wagon]

that's a wooping 10 seconds faster

[quartz kindle]

is there an actual animation in those links?

i just see stills

give me a link that actually produces an animation

and im pretty sure performance can be improved

but i need to see a working animation to make sure i dont break it

[slender wagon]

there is

the .png one

man i can't find anythin good on google for shit

like a large gif

[quartz kindle]

ah nvm

the animation only works on chrome lol

also, all the frame files are broken

because its raw bytes, not actual png images

[slender wagon]

yeah that messed up after i updated the code with the canvas.buffer

never bothered to change it

[quartz kindle]

and i dont see the watermark

like

[slender wagon]

instead of png/image i use this

[quartz kindle]

the original apng was cut into the size of the watermark, and its color changed

[slender wagon]

yeah i can't really share that watermark

[quartz kindle]

but thats all

[slender wagon]

but testing it around now

with large apngs

[quartz kindle]

dumbo

[slender wagon]

yo

what did u do

[quartz kindle]

you have a major performance flaw

lmao

[slender wagon]

fr fr

[slender wagon]

got me wondering seeing the speed of it

[slender wagon]

what is wrong with that

[quartz kindle]

for(...) {
  convert entire file to rgba8
  get 1 frame
}

[slender wagon]

are u sure u got the same results when u did that?

[pale vessel]

maybe convert the frames on the outside first lol

[quartz kindle]

i opened the image on the browser, looks the same again

but as i said, i dont know if what im looking at is the right thing

[slender wagon]

send it here

[slender wagon]

nope

here is how it should be

for some reason yours doesn't have animation

[quartz kindle]

right back at you

mine has and yours doesnt

for some reason discord links wont play the animation

[slender wagon]

download it first

then put it over on edge

or chrome

[quartz kindle]

just did that, still doesnt play lol

but mine plays

[torpid crystal]

in the webhook url it should be http://ip:port/dblwebhook right, and in the authentication the webhook token?

[quartz kindle]

no, top.gg webhooks have nothing to do with discord webhooks

are you using a library like top.gg sdk?

[slender wagon]

that looks like it did it

// Creates an array to hold the frames
const frames = [];

// Set the delay for each frame (in milliseconds)
const frameDelay = apng.frames[0].delay;
// Decode the APNG image data
const apngRGBAData = UPNG.toRGBA8(apng);

// Convert frames to canvas images
const frameCanvases = [];
for (let i = 0; i < apng.frames.length; i++) {
  const frameCanvas = createCanvas(apng.width, apng.height);
  const frameCtx = frameCanvas.getContext("2d");

  // Put the RGBA pixel data onto the frame canvas
  const imageData = frameCtx.createImageData(apng.width, apng.height);
  imageData.data.set(
    new Uint8ClampedArray(new Uint8Array(apngRGBAData[i]).buffer)
  );
  frameCtx.putImageData(imageData, 0, 0);

  frameCanvases.push(frameCanvas);
}

for (let i = 0; i < apng.frames.length; i++) {
  console.log(`Processed frame ${i + 1}/${apng.frames.length}`);

  const frameCanvas = frameCanvases[i];

  // Clear the canvas
  ctxCanvas.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

  // Redraw the user's image onto the canvas
  ctxCanvas.drawImage(userImage, 0, 0);

  // Draws the frame onto the main canvas
  ctxCanvas.drawImage(frameCanvas, watermarkX, watermarkY);

  // Save the canvas as an image
  const buffer = canvas.toBuffer("raw");

  frames.push(buffer.buffer);

  fs.writeFileSync(`watermarked${i}.png`, buffer);
  // Get the RGBA pixel data from the main canvas
  const mainImageData = ctxCanvas.getImageData(
    0,
    0,
    canvas.width,
    canvas.height
  );
    console.log(mainImageData.data.constructor);
        const mainRgbaFrame = new Uint8Array(mainImageData.data)

    // Adds the frame to the array of frames
    // frames.push(mainRgbaFrame);

    console.log(`Processed frame ${i + 1}/${apng.frames.length}`);
  }

@quartz kindle

[torpid crystal]

yes, i did setup all these stuff before but i switched host today and i forgot the part related to top.gg vote receiving cuz i did it months ago

[quartz kindle]

then the authorization shuold be the same thing as you have in your top.gg sdk code

[torpid crystal]

whats that thing thought, is it the end part of an discord webhook or smt?

[quartz kindle]

no, its whatever you want

you literally invent something like 123

[torpid crystal]

oh ic ic

[quartz kindle]

whatever you decide to put in your code, is what you have to put in those settings

doesnt matter what it is, can be anything

[pale vessel]

imagine if interactions were like this

[slender wagon]

return new Canvas(width, height, type)
^
Error: out of memory
ah fuck

[quartz kindle]

much better ye

[slender wagon]

thank you for finding the flaw lmfao

[torpid crystal]

strange it used to work in the old host, but doesnt in the new one. does the format of ip changes any stuff? like my previous host had XXX.XX.XX.XXX and the new one has YY.YYY.YYY.YY else i dont see any reason why it wont work :/

[quartz kindle]

as long as its still ipv4 it should be the same

ipv4 = 0-255.0-255.0-255.0-255

[pale vessel]

I was about to send 999.999.999.999

[quartz kindle]

nice ip

mind if i hack it

:^)

[pale vessel]

yes, please xD

[torpid crystal]

strange then why it isnt sending test messages when i try to haha

[quartz kindle]

whats your new host?

[torpid crystal]

pixelnest.gg

[quartz kindle]

discord bot container?

[torpid crystal]

yep

[quartz kindle]

check your control panel/dashboard

see if there is any specific port you are allowed to use

should be in the same page as your ip address

[north cairn]

const sentMessage =  message.channel.send({embeds: [tossembed], components: [row, ]
});```
cannot read properties of undefined "channel"

 toss(message , interaction) {```

[quartz kindle]

how did you define message

how did you call the toss function

[north cairn]

const run = new Game("computer")
run.toss()

[quartz kindle]

you defined the toss function as toss(message , interaction) {} and tried to run it as toss() ?

[north cairn]

bruh

[quartz kindle]

you need to give the function the parameters you are expecting

[north cairn]

Game is a class

toss is a method

message,interaction are parametres

[quartz kindle]

still, methods also require parameters

you cant call a method without any parameter, if you defined the method as requiring parameters

if you want to call the method without parameters, you need to get that information from somewhere else

[north cairn]

run.toss(interaction,message)```

fine?

[solemn latch]

run.toss(message,interaction)

[quartz kindle]

no, the order has to be the same

[north cairn]

bru

great now it says interaction isn't defined

oh wait ig ik why this issue came

alright its working

thanks

[quartz kindle]

👍

[rustic nova]

Tim

You're swag

[quartz kindle]

no u

[tulip ledge]

Anyone knows how to fix this? Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'APIPartialEmoji'.

just putting in a string with the emoji works

but when I try to get it from a json object it gives me this error

(typescript error btw)

[lyric mountain]

console.log the object

[tulip ledge]

  "consumables": {
    "health potion": ":healthpotion:",
    "slime bottle": ":bottleoslime:"
  },

that's the object

it has emoji like: <:emoji:id>

but discord does weird stuff and shows it like that

      options.push({
        label: `${toTitleCase(key)}`,
        value: key.toLowerCase(),
        description: `You have ${value} remaining.`,
        emoji: emojis.consumables[key] ? emojis.consumables[key] : undefined,
        default: false
      })

Thats the code

and it errors on that emoji property

and the weird part is if I make the json object just one key it doesn't give me the error but once I add a second key it does give me the error

[quartz kindle]

APIPartialEmoji is an object, not a string

somewhere, somehow, something is expecting an emoji object

and you're trying to give it an emoji string

[tulip ledge]

yeah but if I just give it an emoji string it also worked tho

how do I convert the string into an emoji object?

[quartz kindle]

ApiPartialEmoji contains 3 props

[tulip ledge]

alr it works now

[proven lantern]

anyone have an idea when the Premium App Subscription alpha releases?
https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/9359445233303-Premium-App-Subscriptions-FAQ

[hushed robin]

yeah, discord

i don't think they've released that to the public yet

[proven lantern]

can you double check

then check again once you finish

[hushed robin]

well, check the discord developers server

they would definitely have announced it there

[proven lantern]

your job is now to keep checking for me

[hushed robin]

and from i can see they haven't

🫠

[proven lantern]

pls ping me once it's out

[hushed robin]

ok

i will

[proven lantern]

ty

[frosty gale]

why do they not even have a way to bypass the check or at least set the os to something custom in env variables

if they cant even tell what the os is despite the binary files literally being compiled for that os 💀

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[frosty gale]

they probably bootstrap it

actually yeah npm does that

runs off nodejs

[hushed robin]

is it possible in discord.js to make collectors end once it’s been inactive for a certain amount of time

[spark flint]

y

yes

const collector = interaction.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({ filter: i => i.message.id === msg.id, time: 60000 });```

example

thats 60 seconds

and it does this

[hushed robin]

but

this will make it last 60 seconds

then end

I want inactive for 60 seconds makes it end

[quartz kindle]

make your own timer, on every event reset your timer

once your timer runs out, call collector.end()

you can also access the collector's internal timer

and keep reseting it

also, just looked at the code

collectors already have exactly what you want

the idle option

const collector = interaction.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({ filter: i => i.message.id === msg.id, idle: 60000 });

[hushed robin]

oh ok

sorry I didn’t know

😁

how do u see that in the docs btw

I don’t see here https://old.discordjs.dev/#/docs/discord.js/main/class/Collector?scrollTo=e-dispose

[quartz kindle]

https://old.discordjs.dev/#/docs/discord.js/main/typedef/CollectorOptions

[hushed robin]

wow ok

w discord

[hushed robin]

how would I get an interactions type in discord.js?

[pale vessel]

https://old.discordjs.dev/#/docs/discord.js/main/class/BaseInteraction?scrollTo=type?

[hushed robin]

but

that will give me like

MessageComponent

I need like specific one

button

select menu

etc

[pale vessel]

https://old.discordjs.dev/#/docs/discord.js/main/class/BaseInteraction?scrollTo=isStringSelectMenu

scroll through em

[hushed robin]

doing isblankblankblank is so much effort

is there really nothing that just returns it for me

[pale vessel]

check how the code does it

[hushed robin]

isButton() {
return this.type === InteractionType.MessageComponent && this.componentType === ComponentType.Button;
}

[pale vessel]

there's interaction.componentType

[hushed robin]

yay

[pale vessel]

use that then yay

!

[hushed robin]

how can i use \ on an emoji to get it's full format without nitro

[rustic nova]

By doing that on the server the emoji is on

[hushed robin]

but

discord turns it into :emojiname:

because i don't have nitro

wait i understand, i need to do it on the server?

[rustic nova]

On the server the emoji is on

Then it won't do that

[pale vessel]

toggle the emoji picker, open developer tools, and get the emoji url

[radiant kraken]

what a very helpful help command https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/704061031500218392/1121302298363179068/help.mp4

[hushed robin]

yeah but then I need to manually type it

with \ it will do the formatting for me

[pale vessel]

that's very unfortunate

[slender wagon]

how the fuck do i rezise a 3840 x 3840 gif without losing its content

[quartz kindle]

best help command ever, very comprehensive

[slender wagon]

reading help commands from the command line is very painful eitherway

[slender wagon]

anyone?

[rustic nova]

Ffmpeg

[slender wagon]

ok ty

[radiant kraken]

ffmpeg my beloved

[peak drum]

XD true

[lament rock]

so true. so real

[frosty gale]

gifs having that high of a resolution are cursed

you might get better performance with apngs

[slender wagon]

Well see the "animator" sent the watermark as gifs with that size

I converted them to apngs myself

[tulip ledge]

How does it keep on going how do they have so much stuff that the help command is that big

[radiant kraken]

the video is trimmed down btw

it actually takes way more than 4 minutes to list the entire help command

[lyric mountain]

@slender wagon by "losing content", what do u mean?

losing the frames?

[slender wagon]

No

So it has 10 watermarks

If i resize it i could only fit 2

More like cutting

Idk

Thats what an app did when i searched for one

I haven't tested ffmpeg just yet tho

[lyric mountain]

by resizing such a big gif you'll end with an unrecognizable blob

[slender wagon]

Got home and took a nice 💤

[lyric mountain]

as gif doesn't support smooth transitions between colors (nor antialias)

[slender wagon]

The guy who made it couldn't even convert it to a fucking apng with the excuse that his adobe fucked up somehow

[lyric mountain]

lmao

tell him to send u a webp then

it can also be animated

[slender wagon]

I'll have to make that an apng too i guess

Aint no way i am rewritting the code

[lyric mountain]

webp -> apng is somewhat easier as they use the same color format

[slender wagon]

Ah great

Crossing my fingers rn and hoping that mf fixdd his shit

[lyric mountain]

people really need to let gif die

[slender wagon]

Cons of using cracked software to work with

[hushed robin]

no

this is just my 3 letter username

my real name is battleless

[lyric mountain]

well u chose that username

[hushed robin]

look at my display name

it's battleless

[lyric mountain]

ok e0c

[hushed robin]

stop

[lyric mountain]

[quartz kindle]

guys i have an ipv6 block on my linux server, how to i set it up as an ip pool for outgoing requests?

something about ip freebind or something

[sharp geyser]

e0c sounds better

[hushed robin]

battleless > e0c

[proven lantern]

i didn't receive my daily status update from you yesterday

[hushed robin]

you need to wait sir

[proven lantern]

any progress torwards infiltrating the alpha?

[lyric mountain]

hm

[deft wolf]

[hushed robin]

what is this suppose to mean

[lyric mountain]

look at the color hash

[hushed robin]

ok

[lyric mountain]

just noticed ur nick is a valid hex value

[hushed robin]

w nickname

i am pick

[lyric mountain]

magenta

[proven lantern]

orange

light purple

tim, i remade the command using that new format. i need a code review

[hushed robin]

?

pinj

[lyric mountain]

that color is called magenta

pink is the tone in the circle u sent

[hushed robin]

how

[lyric mountain]

how what?

[hushed robin]

that looks like pink

[lyric mountain]

colors can have many named tones

that full saturation pink is called magenta, it's also one of the primary colors in CMYK colorspace

[hushed robin]

ok sounds cool

i am magenta

[proven lantern]

people usually use the abbreviation, maga instead of saying the whole thing. make sure to tell everyone your hex color when you meet them

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[hushed robin]

huh

[proven lantern]

i am being helpful

[hushed robin]

are you over 30 years of age

[proven lantern]

[hushed robin]

yesrs of age

[proven lantern]

never ask a man his age

why isn't this valid PartiQL?
DELETE FROM *

just delete everything pls

do i really need to write a delete statement for each table?

[quartz kindle]

there should be a query to iterate over all tables

most sql dbs have that

[hushed robin]

yea?

[proven lantern]

most stuff says to drop and recreate the tables

i see an inner join hack

[neon leaf]

is it noticable in any way if I cache db results for just row counts (with where clause)? or not because the database has a 0.01ms ping?

[proven lantern]

it'll probably be noticable at scale once all the sql queries start to choke

[sharp geyser]

Are any of the tables relationally joined?

if so you can cascade delete tables\

[proven lantern]

nope, they are nosql tables. PartiQL is not full sql

just to help people make the move to nosql

[hushed robin]

why need to delete them

[proven lantern]

i am testing Elo stuff and i want to reset the scores and run tests again

[hushed robin]

so just delete elo table

🤨

[lyric mountain]

truncate the tables instead

it's faster than a delete

[proven lantern]

and if i recreate the tables i need to update the table names in my environment vars

i dont have a hardcoded name for the table. only refs

[lyric mountain]

TRUNCATE TABLE tablename;

use a loop + concat for iterating all tables

[proven lantern]

does partiql support this?

[lyric mountain]

idk, that's default sql stuff

[proven lantern]

checking

partiql is a subset

[main forum]

hi

[hushed robin]

welcome to development

[proven lantern]

[hushed robin]

development is the best channel

glad you decided to join it

[main forum]

😘💐

[hushed robin]

yay

do you need development help?

[proven lantern]

me?

[hushed robin]

no

what language do you program in though?

[proven lantern]

i try to use the right language for what i'm doing

i use js and rust for my bot

[hushed robin]

two languages for one bot?

[proven lantern]

all rust does is verify the signature

[hushed robin]

why

can’t you do it with js

[proven lantern]

js takes 2-4 seconds to respond to a request during a cold start. rust takes 0-1 seconds

[hushed robin]

wow

[proven lantern]

discord closes connections after 3 seconds

[hushed robin]

wym a cold start

[proven lantern]

when the server isn't running and it needs to start an instance to handle the request

[hushed robin]

oh ok

rust is faster than js so that makes sense

[quartz kindle]

for cold starts, startup time is much more important than running performance

thats one area where node.js is not very good at

[hushed robin]

why not improve

[quartz kindle]

its not their focus

nodejs and v8 focus on runtime performance

[hushed robin]

hm

[quartz kindle]

so all of their effort goes into developing strategies to analize and optimize the code in real time during running

[hushed robin]

node js should make it so I can generate number between two numbers

that would be useful

[quartz kindle]

thats like super easy to do

with basic math

lol

[proven lantern]

ask chatgpt

ezpz

[hushed robin]

ik

but would easier if they did math for me

[proven lantern]

let me see if co pilot will write that for me

[hushed robin]

copilot is so annoying sometimes

actually most the time it is I might just remove it

[hushed robin]

tbh discord.js should be built into node.js

I bet like 70% of node.js programs are discord.js

[queen needle]

Not even close

[proven lantern]

i dont use it

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[hushed robin]

what do you use then

[quartz kindle]

there goes battleless and his absurdities

[proven lantern]

the discord api

[hushed robin]

no library ?

[proven lantern]

i use none.js

[hushed robin]

wow

that must be hard

[proven lantern]

i just write i little function that calls the api and use that

[hushed robin]

why not use something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/@discordjs/rest

[pale vessel]

bLoAT /s

he doesn't need to

[hushed robin]

also why do you need to require node-fetch

can’t you just use the built in fetch?

[proven lantern]

i am using nodejs 16

[hushed robin]

16 doesn’t have?

[proven lantern]

you can have it with --experimental-fetch

i'm using the version that aws supplies me

[hushed robin]

I see

makes sense

[lyric mountain]

Webservers, electron, SPAs, etc

Djs is a tiny minority

[slender wagon]

Flaze suggested me webhooks

[hushed robin]

for what

[slender wagon]

For my next discord bot

Right @pale vessel

[hushed robin]

oh

I wanna but

I don’t wanna do all that shit to my internet to make it work

[slender wagon]

Did u finish your own discord.js

We waitin

[hushed robin]

yea

I finished the day before yesterday

[pale vessel]

ye

[tulip ledge]

is it possible to create discord events using a bot? like the events in a discord guild?

[proven lantern]

good idea

[tulip ledge]

I made this thing I like to call a webhooker for my RPG discord bot game and it makes it look like actual NPCs are talking and if it gets ratelimited or stuff it can just fall back to the bot it's really cool and I highly recommend it

[slender wagon]

So you overengineer'd it basically

Unlike the submarine

[proven lantern]

only discord can send discord events

oh wait

you mean these events?

[tulip ledge]

yeah these

[earnest phoenix]

AWS has Node.js v18

[proven lantern]

hurray!

i dont want to custom install it

i just wait for aws to release images

because im lazy

[earnest phoenix]

AWS Linux 2 natively has it, unless that's not what you're using

[tulip ledge]

my bot has weekly events that u can get other mobs and stuff and I'd like to add it to the support guild as events but idk if it's possible can't find it in docs, might be impossible since I'm using v13 still

[proven lantern]

i will try changing this to 18

why am i using x86

shouldn't i use arm?

[earnest phoenix]

That should work

[proven lantern]

🤞

a year later after rust is done installing

success!

so now i can remove node-fetch

[earnest phoenix]

Yes

[proven lantern]

and use axios again right??

[earnest phoenix]

Do you have a specific reason to use Arm?

[proven lantern]

isn't it cheaper?

[earnest phoenix]

AWS costs doesn't vary on architecture, all costs the same

[hushed robin]

bloatware

[proven lantern]

i need 1MB of libs to do api calls

[lament rock]

use global.fetch on nodejs 17+

[proven lantern]

i can also remove all my aws library dependencies. nodejs18 comes with them preinstalled

[earnest phoenix]

Huh, I don't remember the prices varying for different architectures the last time I used it (which was fairly a long time ago)

[proven lantern]

their pricing is so confusing

i dont think in billions

[wheat mesa]

i don’t have any alt accounts here

i only use my alt account for testing stuff

[proven lantern]

it's okay, i need you here so you can keep checking for the alpha release

[hushed robin]

no

im not your servant

[proven lantern]

you already agreed

[hushed robin]

ok

there was no contract

i can leave

[proven lantern]

verbal contract on discord is binding

[hushed robin]

no it’s not

Interpol takes this very serously

[hushed robin]

I will block you

if you're recording matches for different leaderboards would it make sense to track an Elo rating that takes into account matches played on both leaderboards?

[solemn latch]

Cassie!

[spark flint]

i love how my entire point got washed away

i was referencing the 2021 part, not the simple french part 😭

[proven lantern]

i have 1/3

oh

[hushed robin]

what about 2021

[hushed robin]

what’s the best way to prompt someone with multiple questions using a message collector

I’m wondering how to do it efficiently and uncluttered

[hushed robin]

why am I getting Unknown Channel error sometimes?

[wooden stream]

Ig channel is deleted before that code runs?

[hushed robin]

how though

?

[wheat mesa]

you have a setTimeout, the channel may potentially be deleted before you try to delete it

[hushed robin]

and it only occurs sometimes

[hushed robin]

it's not

the channel still deletes

but for reason produces that error

[wheat mesa]

you might be collecting multiple times?

it's difficult to tell without more context

[hushed robin]

what more context?

[wheat mesa]

like what you're doing to produce that error

[hushed robin]

i'm running that code

and it produces error

[wheat mesa]

ok I'm just not gonna bother then

bye bye

[hushed robin]

bro idk what more context u want

should i send all the code?

like i just did it 5 times and it didn't produce that error

but sometimes it does

🧌

[sharp geyser]

Send all the code for that collector

[hushed robin]

collector.on('collect', async i => {
    if (i.customId === 'confirm') {
        await interaction.editReply({
            content: `Ticket will be closed in 5 seconds!`,
            components: []
        });

        setTimeout(async () => {
            await interaction.channel.delete();
            deleteTicket.run(ticket.id);
        }, 5000);
    } else if (i.customId === 'cancel') {
        await interaction.editReply({
            content: `Ticket closure has been cancelled!`,
            components: []
        });
    }
});

[wooden stream]

maybe you click it twice?

[hushed robin]

not sure if you can see

but the components are removed in the editReply

so that wouldn't be possible

[wooden stream]

do you wait a lot before clicking confirm?

[hushed robin]

no

but what relation would that have to the issue

[wooden stream]

well, you use variables from outside the callback in the callback function

[hushed robin]

so

[wooden stream]

well the main function could have already ended, then someone runs another interaction, cache for that variable might change, and you don't use the same variable data anymore in the callback.

I believe that's how it can work, but not completly sure

does your bot have many servers?

[hushed robin]

i don't think that's how that works

but the bot is only being used by me

[wooden stream]

Ah then nvm ig

[lyric mountain]

your cancel thing will not work btw

also put console.log("here") right before u delete the channel

let it run for a while, see if it appears twice before the error

[unkempt ocean]

I'm trying to understand singleton patterns and I read something about it that says I need to write a singleton pattern for database connection, so each shard use that pattern. The thing i don't understand is isn't this the same way if I just make the connection in main index file. Is this somehow prevents creating unique connection for each shard and uses only one connection for all shards

Can someone explain please?

[lyric mountain]

singleton is supposed to act as a model for database entities no?

like in orm libraries

afaik, regardless of how many shard you have it all depends on where u put the db connection

[unkempt ocean]

No not like a model, let's say i use mongodb: every connection has the same options. And I'm little worried about having a lot of connections, like different unique connection for each shard

So what would happen if I just make the connection in singleton pattern and use that connection in index file to define database for each shard

[lyric mountain]

to be fair, having a single connection isn't desired in most cases, but still it all depends on where u put the connection

if u put in a shared, global class it'll only create a single connection and pass it around

which I believe is what u mean with singleton

[unkempt ocean]

yes that's what it supposed to do i assume

[lyric mountain]

like my manager class

it's static so it'll only be created a single manager which is accessed from everywhere

I do use multiple connections (at most 15)

but it's a single entrypoint to the database

[unkempt ocean]

hmm

[lyric mountain]

multiple connections are desired if u have a lot of transactions

u can setup a pool to limit the ceiling for concurrent connections

[unkempt ocean]

Thank you, I think i can go for single connection at the moment and change it to multiple connection along the way

[lyric mountain]

[waxen tendon]

@tired leaf

what else you can make with discord api ?

except bots

[quartz kindle]

you can use people's discord account to authenticate/login/register on your website

you can create an advanced server join flow that requires some precondition/registration before the user is able to join your discord server

you can make newsletters and updates using webhooks without a bot

[waxen tendon]

that's all ?

or there is more to it ?

[quartz kindle]

you can have slash commands without a bot too

[waxen tendon]

Yeah I heard of that before and about ( self bots)

[quartz kindle]

you can do all kinds of server automation

[waxen tendon]

okay thanks for letting me know Tim

[hushed robin]

it works fine?

[lyric mountain]

it can't possibly work no matter how hard you want it to

unless I'm understanding your system wrong, once you press "confirm" there's absolutely no way to abort the setTimeout

because you created an unnamed timeout

[hushed robin]

you click close ticket button

then it sends new message to either confirm it or cancel it

[lyric mountain]

why do u even have a timeout then?

[hushed robin]

why not

[lyric mountain]

because you add the possibility of async issues like u have

[hushed robin]

how

[lyric mountain]

"stale state"

where the to-be-ran task doesn't know the data it has is no longer valid

if the channel is going to be deleted without possibility of being cancelled, simply do it right away

[peak drum]

[hushed robin]

no

this way is cooler

[lyric mountain]

then contend with the unknown channel issue

you want aesthetics over functionality, so be it

[peak drum]

or check if the channel still exsist

[hushed robin]

it’s not related to my setTimeout

[lyric mountain]

remove it then to see

[peak drum]

[hushed robin]

no

[lyric mountain]

then shut

[hushed robin]

how could it possibly be related

[lyric mountain]

if it isn't related, remove it to see

[hushed robin]

no

[lyric mountain]

t h e n s h u t

[hushed robin]

😐

[civic scroll]

you can just delete the chanel after sending the extra message instead

[lyric mountain]

that's what I told him

[hushed robin]

ik

but having wait 5 seconds is cooler

[civic scroll]

how sure are you that the message is always taking shorter time to send than the deletion timeout

[sullen crater]

[frosty gale]

anyone happen to know a faster way of getting the remainder of division?

i need it to be very fast and the number to divide by is always the same

dont know if modulus (%) in c is good enough

[earnest phoenix]

My guy do you really think that there's a faster way? Arithmetic operations in C are as fast as it can get

[rustic nova]

Is getting the reminder even resource-intensive?

[earnest phoenix]

Nope

[rustic nova]

Or generally any arithmetic operation

Fair enough

[earnest phoenix]

Besides, depending on the compiler you're using there can be an optimization CLI flag called -ffast-math that makes the arithmetic operations a lot faster but it's not standardized so be careful when using it

[frosty gale]

i like my math to be ⏩

[earnest phoenix]

But you shouldn't need that anyway, just use the highest optimization level (which is generally -O3)

[quartz kindle]

doesnt O3 include ffast-math?

[earnest phoenix]

Nope

[quartz kindle]

ah no, Ofast does

[frosty gale]

what does fast math even trade off

does it mess up floating precision?

[earnest phoenix]

Here's a good blog detailing why you should be careful when using it
https://simonbyrne.github.io/notes/fastmath

[frosty gale]

isnt o3 the same as ofast?

[earnest phoenix]

No

[quartz kindle]

Ofast is O3 plus extras afaik

[frosty gale]

they both trade off performance for size

other way round actually

[earnest phoenix]

That's not the case at all, -O3 does not care about size, it only cares about optimizing the program as much as it possibly can

-Ofast doesn't care either, but includes optimizations that can be faster but poses dangers to correctness

-Os and -Oz are the ones dedicated for size compression

[lyric mountain]

just use it, the compiler will get what you mean and use the best option available

[hushed robin]

because i'm awaiting it ?

[hushed robin]

no you fish person

[civic scroll]

huh

"awaiting" is not a certain thing

how long exactly do you know the operation is gonna take

factoring in cpu time, runtime interruptions, internet speed, endpoint server processing and respond

it's something you can't control

so at least make it less faulty

it's not cool when your bot just dies from a unhandled rejection or have a memory leak due to unresolved timeout

[hushed robin]

what

?

[civic scroll]

read it again

[hushed robin]

no

you make no sense

[civic scroll]

you are never sure that the message is gonna send before channel deletion occurs

[hushed robin]

it's not even sending a message

it's editing one

and i can see it edited

😐

[civic scroll]

my bad, the channel that contains the interaction that you are editing

[hushed robin]

?

the error is coming from the interaction.channel.delete() not the editReply

i saw it in the stacktrace

[civic scroll]

it will come from the editReply

[hushed robin]

no it's not

[civic scroll]

Unknown Interaction to be exact

[hushed robin]

what..?

[civic scroll]

trigger a case where you click cancel and the editReply call happens after the channel gets deleted

[hushed robin]

no

[civic scroll]

you will see what i mean

[hushed robin]

the editReply ain't the issue

[civic scroll]

that is an issue

[hushed robin]

no it's not

[civic scroll]

you are not nullifying the interaction response after the ticket is cancelled

aka. blocking users from interacting with the interaction embed

[hushed robin]

???

[civic scroll]

[hushed robin]

idk what your yapping on about

[civic scroll]

consider this scenario

you click on confirm

and after that you immediately click on cancel

[hushed robin]

that's not possible

[civic scroll]

idk, the user gets curious for some reasons

[civic scroll]

that IS possible, considering you are not blocking those buttons upon clicking either buttons

so the collector is gonna keep collecting

[hushed robin]

once you click a component, Discord will not allow you to click another till the component has been replied to.
and as you can see, when I respond to it, I remove all the components.

so that's literally not possible

[civic scroll]

you don't, the setTimeout is independent

[hushed robin]

???

[civic scroll]

say after it's replied to, and the user clicks on cancel

the timer has been invoked already

[hushed robin]

that's not possible, as I said

I remove the components

with the reply

look at my code

collector.on('collect', async i => {
    if (i.customId === 'confirm') {
        await interaction.editReply({
            content: `Ticket will be closed in 5 seconds!`,
// COMPONENTS ARE REMOVED RIGHT HERE
            components: []
        });

        setTimeout(async () => {
            await interaction.channel.delete();
            deleteTicket.run(ticket.id);
        }, 5000);
    } else if (i.customId === 'cancel') {
        await interaction.editReply({
            content: `Ticket closure has been cancelled!`,
// COMPONENTS ARE REMOVED RIGHT HERE
            components: []
        });
    }
});

[civic scroll]

what if the interaction happens twice before the await call gets called

[hushed robin]

what?

[civic scroll]

the user clicks on both buttons

[hushed robin]

have you ignored everything i said

[lament rock]

multiple users can click the button at the same time depending on the filter

If you want the collect event to only fire once, use once instead of on

[civic scroll]

^

[hushed robin]

nope, it's ephemeral

[lament rock]

I'd still only use once

[civic scroll]

even so, consider clicking twice before it even have a chance to edit reply

async function doesn't get called until the end of event loop

[hushed robin]

that's physically impossible, so why would i consider it?

[civic scroll]

it's physically possible

[hushed robin]

no it's not

[civic scroll]

you can click two buttons in a very short time on mobile

[hushed robin]

nope

and regardless that's not the issue

[civic scroll]

plus like papi said, if you want to use it once, use .once

[hushed robin]

so idk what your yapping on about it

[civic scroll]

...

i'm out

[hushed robin]

thanks

[civic scroll]

thanks for wasting my last braincell on your "because it's cool" idea

why

🧒

[eternal osprey]

hey guys

[hushed robin]

nvm i fixed

[eternal osprey]

i recently coded a javafx program, but i'd like to actually switch over to using the actual java gui builder instead of manual code. Is that possible?

[earnest phoenix]

The error could be coming from an erroneous library or part that isn't supposed to be used

[eternal osprey]

And what would you guys even recommend

[rustic nova]

There's a few Java GUI builders that have an actual UI to build, just look up Java GUI builders

[eternal osprey]

i was watching a tut of some guy on youtube

[terse wagon]

No

No

[eternal osprey]

honestly made the designing look very easy

cuz i am always fucking around

[terse wagon]

Yoyo

[sullen crater]

bro what the hell

[rustic nova]

Nah it's not lol

[sullen crater]

[rustic nova]

I had to work with java swing, is a bit more easy if you understand the general layout features it has

[sullen crater]

contender for top ten fish

[earnest mural]

Fish

[spice notch]

and

chips

[eternal osprey]

it isn't?

Well atleast it's better than coding in all yourself, in this gui thingy you can directly place components in a specific place etc

while in pl;ain javafx it's always a hassle to get everything together

[rustic nova]

Yeah just gotta keep in mind that it might not scale the same on different devices or screen sizes

[eternal osprey]

mhmm i see, i can live with that tho

[sharp geyser]

and this right here is why people don't like helping him

[earnest phoenix]

[hushed robin]

yea cus I’m wondering why

it has my full name

🧌

battleless chindle the third

[sharp geyser]

Because without a stacktrace how do you expect us to help you

[hushed robin]

idk

but I fixed it

[sharp geyser]

Cool

[hushed robin]

im pretty smart

BUSINESS IS BUSINESS

[sharp geyser]

yea sure

[lyric mountain]

Smh e0c

[hushed robin]

it’s true

I’m a better programmer than the average person

😎

[sharp geyser]

yet you couldn't even solve your own issue

A "good" programmer knows how to listen to others

you on the other hand deny the possibility your shit code doesn't work how you think it does

[lyric mountain]

I mean, e0c said "average", so if we choose to use mode (which is "doesn't program") then he's better than someone who doesn't even know code

[hushed robin]

I just did

wym

[hushed robin]

?

[sharp geyser]

What are you confused about

[hushed robin]

that statement

it doesn’t make sense

[sharp geyser]

How come?

[hushed robin]

because it doesn’t

my code works exactly as I think it does

[sharp geyser]

Every day I see you in here, you ask for help but tell the person trying to help you that they are wrong

[hushed robin]

when?

[hushed robin]

well yea

I’m correct in that instance

[sharp geyser]

Not really

[hushed robin]

where’s another?

I am

[sharp geyser]

cause sayuri is right

[hushed robin]

they’re not though

[sharp geyser]

okay bud

[hushed robin]

💀

[hushed robin]

how can I make discord.js not produce this error:
Error [ChannelNotCached]: Could not find the channel where this message came from in the cache!

[solemn latch]

👀

[hushed robin]

👀

[spark flint]

that means you probably restarted the bot and then tried to fetch a message

i had same issue when making a suggestions bot, i had to fetch the channel separately so it was in cache

[hushed robin]

in my case it's because i'm <Channel>.awaitMessages() and the channel gets deleted. how would I go about resolving the issue so I don't get that error?

[spark flint]

well

are you doing awaitMessages() before or after the channel deletion

[hushed robin]

before

basically i'm making a ticket system and ask someone questions in the ticket channel after it's created

and there could be a case where the person closes the ticket instead of answering the questions

[steady owl]

hello. I am just getting into learning to make my own bots for my server. I am having issues with the bot token though. When i create the bot, there is no token displayed, nor is there a button to display the token. And when i attempt to reset the token, it still doesnt display a new token for me.

what am i doing wrong?

[hushed robin]

are you doing this

[steady owl]

Yes. But there's no token, or copy button, appearing.

[hushed robin]

uh

idk

seems like a bug

try creating a new bot

[steady owl]

I have. 5 different times.

Same thing for each one.

[hushed robin]

can u take a video or sum

weird

[steady owl]

I restarted my computer, and downloaded a different authenticator app, and it finally worked.

[hushed robin]

ah nice

[hushed robin]

anyone know what I can do about this?

[warm surge]

-ping

[gilded plank]

wheres the docs for modals on the discord documentation

can't find them

[hushed robin]

it's a bumping system you consent to

numerous other bots do it

[sharp geyser]

and its a dumb idea too

[deft wolf]

Looks like polish type of bot

[neon leaf]

how can I define routes with matched params like /@{username} in the openapi 3.1 spec?

just like that or no?

[maiden gazelle]

Why

[deft wolf]

It's just not gonna work at all

[quartz kindle]

o kurwa pierdole

:^)

[deft wolf]

Jokes aside, but at the beginning of 2020 there was a total flood of such bots in Poland. Everyone was doing something like this with the idea of ​​earning money from premium ads. Few got more than 1000 servers but by offering an ad for each server every hour at almost 1000 servers it really was more of a spam bot than something that actually helped promote the server

Some were even able to send premium ads to all members of other servers in private messages

So I don't really trust such projects, in most cases they are doomed to die sooner or later

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[sharp geyser]

Because these kinds of bots do virtually nothing in growing a server

You’ll see no substantial or constant growth

These bots have been around for years and they have yet to be successful. A server list is more successful than a bot and those server lists already have a bot that bumps your server to the front of the queue anyway

[maiden gazelle]

Ik but much people ad it to their server

[sharp geyser]

To each the own I’m not telling you not to do it

Just prepare for the possibility it’ll flop and hell if you make it popular good on ya as well

[lyric mountain]

Lmao make the floor thicker

[hushed robin]

someone help me pls

[coarse fjord]

Instead of seeing the votes directly through my bot, you can put it in my API, and somehow get who voted, it's just that the host where I host my bot doesn't give the ip because they say the ip is temporary.

[hushed robin]

what

[coarse fjord]

?

[hushed robin]

idk your saying that without any context

[coarse fjord]

I am using the translator

Sorry

Instead of directly accessing voting information through my bot, you can utilize my API to retrieve the voter data. However, the hosting service for my bot does not provide the IP addresses as they claim the IPs are temporary.

[hushed robin]

do you mean you can’t use webhooks because your hosting provider doesn’t provide you with an IP?

[coarse fjord]

It's because I wanted to add a value to my database and send a message to user

[wheat mesa]

The irony is unbelievable

[hushed robin]

I don’t think there’s much you can do then

u need a publicly accessible IP to use webhooks

[hushed robin]

I told my issue earlier in chat

look up

[rustic nova]

Irony

[lyric mountain]

Sadly you cannot use the webhook if you don't have any address to point to

You can tho check for a specific users' vote status, but it'll require them to use a command

It won't be automatic, but at least you can know whether someone voted or not

His issue (aside from the mentality) is that he's deleting a channel inside a 5s timeout and is getting an unknown channel error

And no, he doesn't really need that 5s timeout, he simply refuses to test without because "lookz cool"

Ah yes the classic “scroll 15 conversations up to find my problem because I can’t be bothered to repost it”

[hushed robin]

this is not the issue

[hushed robin]

this is the new issue

how can I ignore this error so it doesn’t occur?

[lyric mountain]

by writing functional instead of aesthetical shit

[hushed robin]

again, this is not related to the other issue

this is a new issue

[sullen crater]

try {
  your code
} catch (not_useful_info) {
   const received_info = not_useful_info;
  setTimeout(() => ({
    if (not_useful_info && not_useful_info.message) {
    delete received_info.message;
}
}), 300)
  return
}
