development

[quartz kindle]

check if one of those is cutting the connection after a timeout

[neon leaf]

cloudflare is but they seem to support sse so I think im doing something wrong

[quartz kindle]

for example in nginx you have proxy_read_timeout and proxy_connect_timeout

[neon leaf]

is set to like 800k seconds

[quartz kindle]

try adding the X-Accel-Buffering: no; header to the nodejs response

also Cache-Control: no-cache;

your nginx proxy already has these right?

proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Connection "";

[neon leaf]

it has connection upgrade

afaik a sse request should instantly show the status in the network dev tab

mine just shows nothing (loading)

[quartz kindle]

i believe connection "" is the correct one for persistent connections

[neon leaf]

lemme try rq

[quartz kindle]

the nodejs headers should be ```
'Content-Type': 'text/event-stream',
'Connection': 'keep-alive',
'Cache-Control': 'no-cache',
'X-Accel-Buffering': 'no'

[neon leaf]

yup

[lyric mountain]

Ur using websocket with nginx?

[neon leaf]

no

sse

[quartz kindle]

i found something interesting, might wanna give it a try

location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection '';
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
    proxy_buffering off;
    proxy_cache off;
    proxy_read_timeout 60s; # SSE gets sent on whatever interval this is set to
    chunked_transfer_encoding off;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
}

[lyric mountain]

Ah, was gonna ask you whether u get random disconnects from it

[quartz kindle]

more specifically this proxy_read_timeout 60s; # SSE gets sent on whatever interval this is set to

[lyric mountain]

Tried finding the cause for too long already, never discovered why my websockets get dropped after a while

[neon leaf]

ooh, do I have to send "pings" every now and then for it to not close?

[quartz kindle]

im not sure, but from what that comment says it seems nginx waits for data to come from node, and once it timesout, it sends the data so far to the client

and starts waiting again

thats what the commend suggests

[neon leaf]

ill try sending pings

[quartz kindle]

even though the timeout suggests it would close the connection

try setting the timeout to something like 2 seconds

[quartz kindle]

as discord says, the internet is a scary place

[frosty gale]

tf?

since when was that a thing

[neon leaf]

since forever

[frosty gale]

why do they only limit it to server-client anyways

ws is bidirectional:)

[neon leaf]

you dont always need bidirectional

[neon leaf]

yeah, that fixed it (the event stream is still not recognized properly but ehh, it doesnt reconnect so its fine)

[quartz kindle]

cool

[neon leaf]

also why is react being so react

why 2 requests

its in a useEffect

[frosty gale]

ehhhhhhhhhh still use websockets at that point lmao

[neon leaf]

I mean yeah they are convenient but to my knowledge relatively resource heavy

[frosty gale]

react trying to re-render the whole page just because the user moved their mouse 1cm

react rerenders too much

[frosty gale]

dont know how the browser implements websockets but both use tcp (as far as i know) and tcp is bidirectional so the notification one intentionally limits it

[lyric mountain]

Like, I have a long timeout, I send a ping every 30 mins, and yet I get disconnects after a while running

doesn't affect much, aside from the occasional broken pipes, but it's annoying to have the log full of "Client disconnected with reason xxxx"

[frosty gale]

i think os's generally disconnect sockets if keep alives havent been exchanged for 30 minutes more or less?

talking about tcp

not sure if that may be the case here

not talking about websockets but for tcp sockets i make clients exchange "heartbeats" every 2 minutes if a connection has been dormant and it doesnt seem to disconnect me

browser might have its own quirks

[lyric mountain]

might be worth to reduce my ping interval to test

[frosty gale]

there really isnt a standardised way to test/see if a tcp connection is properly dead or not so os's just kill them if nothing has been sent/received for a while

[neon leaf]

how tf do I prevent react from making 2 requests? basically tried everything at this point

[lyric mountain]

wdym 2?

[neon leaf]

that subscribe

[quartz kindle]

30 min is a long time

discord heartbeats/pings every 45 seconds lol

[frosty gale]

bro wants to save that bandwidth

people on internet that limits their total download/upload per month thanking kuuhaku rn

[quartz kindle]

make a custom socket where heartbeats only take 1 byte

:^)

[frosty gale]

yeah my heartbeats are 1 byte

its just a single byte message with '0'

[quartz kindle]

xD

[earnest phoenix]

Yes there is, TCP connections have keepalive packets in which they are sent at regular intervals by the operating system or the application, if the remote endpoint does not respond to the keepalive packets after a certain number of retries then the TCP connection is considered dead and terminated by the operating system or application

[quartz kindle]

via raw tcp right?

[frosty gale]

i never had any luck with them

[quartz kindle]

because websocket add a lot of overhead

[frosty gale]

i tried setting up keep alives with the c api and they never worked

[earnest phoenix]

Skill issue™️

[frosty gale]

https://tenor.com/view/byuntear-crying-cry-mad-angry-gif-25839527

[quartz kindle]

xD

[frosty gale]

actually my issue was it took the os way too long to disconnect dead sockets with keepalive

i think i checked somewhere and found out you cant change it its an os-level thing

[quartz kindle]

lmao i saw that

obviously fake tho

but still funny

[hushed robin]

how do I make a websocket

[quartz kindle]

from scratch or...

[hushed robin]

yea

[frosty gale]

blud CANNOT ❌ wait 30 MINUTES for the os to tell SCHLAWG ✅ 🐶 if a socket is DEAD 💀❌

[quartz kindle]

in the browser you cant

[neon leaf]

why would you want to make one from scratch

[hushed robin]

i don’t want browser

[neon leaf]

then dont use websockets

[quartz kindle]

but in nodejs you can make a websocket implementation using the built in net module

[hushed robin]

cus I wanna make one

[quartz kindle]

or the http module also works

[hushed robin]

ok

is it hard

[neon leaf]

yes

[quartz kindle]

since http uses and gves you access to a instance of a net socket anyways

[frosty gale]

in c the api for connections with tcp is actually very pleasant

[earnest phoenix]

Ong

[frosty gale]

you get functions that block the thread until some data is received and you can send bytes with a simple function

[earnest phoenix]

On what operating system were you doing this?

[frosty gale]

ubuntu

[quartz kindle]

did you check the code for tiny-discord? the websocket file basically does this, its a custom websocket client using the http module

[hushed robin]

npm says it doesn’t exist

[quartz kindle]

its a node module

[neon leaf]

its built in

[quartz kindle]

built in

..

[hushed robin]

oh

[hushed robin]

let me see

[quartz kindle]

a websocket has two parts, a client and a server

i only made the client part

[hushed robin]

https://github.com/timotejroiko/tiny-discord/blob/master/src/WebsocketShard.js

[quartz kindle]

but you can also make the server part the same way

[hushed robin]

this?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[hushed robin]

bruh

it’s 1400 lines

[neon leaf]

yes

doing stuff like this from scratch does literally mean from scratch

[quartz kindle]

the websocket part is only a small part of the code

for example

this is where i make the connection ```js
const req = request({
hostname: (this._session.id && this._session.url) || this.url,
path: path,
headers: {
"Connection": "Upgrade",
"Upgrade": "websocket",
"Sec-WebSocket-Key": key,
"Sec-WebSocket-Version": "13",
}
});

[hushed robin]

does it have to be that long

[neon leaf]

no

[lyric mountain]

ah good, I was fearing that u managed to make a discord lib within only 1400 lines

[neon leaf]

alot of it is discord-specific code

[quartz kindle]

request is const { request } = require("node:https");

[earnest phoenix]

You can absolutely change it, you can change the net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout property in the /etc/sysctl.conf file (the property value is in seconds)

The default value is 2 minutes

[quartz kindle]

then this is how to initiate the connection once its established ```js
req.on("upgrade", (res, socket) => {
const hash = createHash("sha1").update(key + "258EAFA5-E914-47DA-95CA-C5AB0DC85B11").digest("base64");
const accept = res.headers["sec-websocket-accept"];
if(hash !== accept) {
socket.end(() => {
this.emit("debug", "Failed websocket-key validation");
const error = /** @type {Error & { expected?: string, received?: string }} */ (new Error("Invalid Sec-Websocket-Accept"));
error.expected = hash;
error.received = accept;
reject(error);
});
return;
}
socket.on("error", this._onError.bind(this));
socket.on("close", this._onClose.bind(this));
socket.on("readable", this._onReadable.bind(this));

[frosty gale]

yeah but thats a system level setting what if you want to do it per application

[frosty gale]

mine was definitely not 2 minutes

dont know what happened

[quartz kindle]

notice the socket.on("readable", this._onReadable.bind(this)); thats how i start receiving data from discord

it can also be socket.on("data")

[earnest phoenix]

You can't do such a thing per-application in any operating system

[hushed robin]

this is not what I mean

[quartz kindle]

then you need the code to understand the websocket specification

how to extract the data from the websocket frames

[hushed robin]

then why is it so long

[quartz kindle]

i do that part here ```js
_onReadable() {
const socket = /** @type {NonNullable<typeof this._socket>} */ (this._socket);
while(socket.readableLength > 1) {
let length = readRange(socket, 1, 1) & 127;
let bytes = 0;
if(length > 125) {
bytes = length === 126 ? 2 : 8;
if(socket.readableLength < 2 + bytes) { return; }
length = readRange(socket, 2, bytes);
}
const frame = socket.read(2 + bytes + length);
if(!frame) { return; }
const fin = frame[0] >> 7;
const opcode = frame[0] & 15;
if(fin !== 1 || opcode === 0) { throw new Error("discord actually does send messages with fin=0. if you see this error let me know"); }
const payload = frame.slice(2 + bytes);
this._processFrame(opcode, payload);
}
}

[earnest phoenix]

Also why the hell is Battleless trying to make a websocket from scratch

[hushed robin]

because

[quartz kindle]

the file contains websocket logic as well as discord api logic, thats why its long

[hushed robin]

I wanna learn

[quartz kindle]

it also supports ETF and compression

it also does heartbeating, reconnection, etc

[hushed robin]

so how long does my websocket need to be

[quartz kindle]

and event emitter stuff

if you want only the websocket part

let me show you, i actually changed it into a separate version

i separated the websocket code into its own file, its ~250 lines

[hushed robin]

wow

wtf is taking up the other 1100 lines

[quartz kindle]

i told you

discord api logic

events, heartbeating, reconnection

[hushed robin]

why does that take up 1100 lines

[quartz kindle]

because discord is complex

[hushed robin]

so will I need to do that

[quartz kindle]

and i also included a built in ETF converter

[hushed robin]

⁉️

[quartz kindle]

which takes a lot of lines

[earnest phoenix]

You should see how discord.js handles it 👽

[hushed robin]

probably less than that

[quartz kindle]

lmao

discord.js is like 5x bigger

[neon leaf]

tiny-discord

[quartz kindle]

just the websocket part

[hushed robin]

sounds excessive

[quartz kindle]

the thing is

if you want a minimal implementation

you can do it in few lines of code

but then you need to start adding stuff to handle edge cases

so it ends up being larger than you thought

[hushed robin]

how

send me the few lines

[quartz kindle]

like code to handle all possible ways of disconnections

code to handle websocket pings

    _handleFrame(/** @type {number} */ opcode, /** @type {Buffer} */ message) {
        if(opcode > 2) {
            switch(opcode) {
                case 8: { // close
                    this._closeCode = message.length > 1 ? (message[0] << 8) + message[1] : 0;
                    this._closeMessage = message.length > 2 ? message.subarray(2).toString() : "";
                    this.ondebug(`Received close frame with code: ${this._closeCode} ${this._closeMessage}`);
                    if(!this._closed) {
                        this._write(message.subarray(0, 2), 8); // echo close code
                        this._closed = true;
                    }
                    break;
                }
                case 9: { // ping
                    this.ondebug("Received ping frame, responding with pong");
                    this._write(message, 10);
                    break;
                }
                case 10: { // pong
                    this.ondebug("Received pong frame");
                    if(this._ping) { this._ping.resolve(); }
                    break;
                }
            }
        } else {
            this.onmessage(opcode, message);
        }
    }

[hushed robin]

that’s more than a few lines

[earnest phoenix]

https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js/tree/main/packages%2Fws

[quartz kindle]

few lines i mean at least a few dozen

[hushed robin]

😵

[quartz kindle]

i mean

depends what exactly you want to accomplish

if all you want is to see discord events flodding your console logs

then you can do it in about 10-20 lines

[hushed robin]

only 771 lines

[quartz kindle]

yes

and thats only the discord api logic

it does not include websocker logic, nor compression, nor conversion

everything else is handled in other files

discordjs uses the ws package for the websocket implementation

ws alone is sevral thousand lines

because they have to support every single feature and quirk of the websocket specification

i dont

[hushed robin]

what’s the difference between Ws and http

[quartz kindle]

http opens and closes

ws its an http that opens and stays open

[hushed robin]

so yours doesn’t stay open?

[quartz kindle]

it does

ws is built on top of http

you start with sending an http requiest

and then you tell it to not close

[hushed robin]

u said http open and closes

and u use http

[quartz kindle]

without ws yes

[vivid fulcrum]

in lays terms, water running from a tap continuously is a websocket, water in a cup is a served http request

[quartz kindle]

ws is like an app built on top of http that specifically tells http not to close

http is the base connection for everything

ws is a style of using http

a normal http request is automatically closed after it finishes

a ws requiest specifically asks it not to close

it overrides the normal http setting

I'm really not sure

[quartz kindle]

what i didnt like about the course was that they teach the students spring with a very fixed mindset on mvc principles

the code is always split into controllers, models, views, requests, entities, services, etcc

[vivid fulcrum]

yeah fair, it was definitely overwhelming when i first jumped into it

[hushed robin]

no why do u hate Java

[vivid fulcrum]

daamn, mvc has its place but it's really not for everything, it hits you when you start to question yourself whether you just over engineered what you just built

[sage bobcat]

[vivid fulcrum]

i don't hate it anymore, but i do dislike the lack of proper generic support and things a normal person probably wouldn't care about

but performance is irrelevant in the industry, unless you're making a game or something that requires squeezing every single point of performance out of your hardware

which is fair, older tech leaves more space for refining

[earnest phoenix]

Government websites be using the oldest technology in existence

[hushed robin]

is JavaScript your favourite language

[earnest phoenix]

And they never bother using something newer

[hushed robin]

hm ok

[vivid fulcrum]

if i want a UI app that i can quickly write the styling and logic for, id go for js because of electron etc etc

[earnest phoenix]

They don't need to, but they should instead of just using something incredibly old that nobody really cares about, and imagine trying to find someone to maintain the said old thing if the current maintainers leave or get fired

Reminds me of this meme

[hushed robin]

but they aren’t going to because they don’t need to

I think they should focus on more important things

🧌

[vivid fulcrum]

nah that's definitely changing, technology is constantly evolving and there should definitely be more care about keeping things up to date

we're slowly entering a new age of computing which leaves the doors open for all kinds of exploits and cracks

[lament rock]

The backbone of the internet is likely mostly run by old tech barely maintained/touched because it all JUST WORKS LIKE MAGIC

I have a cache with a ttl of 15 seconds, now I also want to clear this using a cronjob every x time. How long should I put between clearing the cache? Every 5 minutes?

To clear the ones that exceeded the ttl

if entries are managing to exceed the ttl u need to either find a better lib or find out why it happened

ttl is supposed to be absolute, nothing should exceed it

does it have ts support

[lyric mountain]

maybe, idk

at worst it'll be any typed

alr

I'll try that

find a supported lib for a ttl map if that one doesnt work

👍

it needs to reach 76

[frosty gale]

I have this C++ struct here:

struct Entry {
    uint32_t f1 : 16;
    uint32_t f2 : 16;
} __attribute__((packed));

members are defined by a bitfield size so both fields are 16 bits making it 32 bits, a size of a uint32_t
i wanna create them on the stack like Entry e; but the members in the struct have to be 0, this is very important
and I don't think I can use default initialisation here because:

i could always use a messy solution like

uint32_t struc = 0;
Entry* e = reinterpret_cast<Entry*>(&struc);

but wondering if theres a better way

[earnest phoenix]

You can just do:

Entry entry = {};

This uses the {} initializer to initialize the data members to their default values which in case of bit-fields is 0

This is called aggregate initialization
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/aggregate_initialization

[frosty gale]

ahh okay i'll try that

weird syntax but i dont question

thanks!!!!

depending on what ur trying to do, using an external application will be the fastest option

like imagemagick

[lament rock]

It'd be for my bot

why I requested libraries

[lyric mountain]

cant get much faster than node canvas

[earnest phoenix]

Sharp is incredibly fast if all you do is resizing, converting, or slightly editing images (a lot faster than the other libraries) but it only has a small feature set and doesn't support all platforms

Node-Canvas is very good, there's also @napi-rs/canvas which seems to be faster than Node-Canvas though it's not yet stable as said by the developers themselves

So your best bet for now is Node-Canvas

If you want, you can make node-gyp compile Node-Canvas with ThinLTO which can also improve it's performance quite well

[lament rock]

Will look into it. I do have some complex ops like masking so yeah

anything for gifs specifically?

I tried before and the processing times were extreme

[lyric mountain]

gif is...terrible

[lament rock]

Wish Discord allowed embedding animations of other types

video formats as seen on the gif feature doesnt work. apng doesnt work. webm/webp doesnt work

if webp even supports animation

as in no autoplay I mean by not working

[lyric mountain]

to make it worse, discord technically does support apng but they've made it exclusive for stickers

[lament rock]

Yeah

[queen needle]

Imagescript

[lament rock]

they used to support apng for avatars and people could get animated avatars without nitro, then they blocked that

shit was so dumb

I'll have to see how imagescript performs

[queen needle]

It is really fast

[lament rock]

is it just an encoder or?

[queen needle]

I'm a wee bit dumb so im just going to: https://www.npmjs.com/package/imagescript

[lament rock]

mmm does support decoding and encoding gifs, but it's a bitmap based solution

might be considerably slower than canvas

I'll see if there's any gif support for canvas through external libs/built in first

[queen needle]

Whenever I've used it the time it takes for it to do the manipulation and then send the image in discord seems to be just about the same as with canvas

[earnest phoenix]

Well you can also use a different library for encoding/decoding GIFs and use https://www.npmjs.com/package/gifencoder to put them together in Canvas

Though it can be quite slow

[lament rock]

how slow we talking

[earnest phoenix]

I remember making it take the user's avatar, and output a GIF with lots of frames where the avatar was being pet, a few of them were added to the discord.js server

Like

[lyric mountain]

all image manipulation is bitmap based

bitmap is basically a pixel grid

[earnest phoenix]

It generally took 5-6 seconds to generate

[lament rock]

5-6 seconds is acceptible

svgs aren't really bitmap

can still manipulate it

[earnest phoenix]

Though note that it was making my bot come down to its knees because it's quite resource-intensive, make sure to do this in a different process or server unless you have a pretty beefy server

[lament rock]

oh yikes

I mean. I have separate processes for stuff and I planned on shoving it onto a worker that didn't handle any important tasks like http or queue handling

unless it makes use of multiple cores, I won't have to scale servers just yet

[earnest phoenix]

Although that has nothing to do with the gifencoder library I mentioned, it's because of me doing quite a good amount of canvas operations

And as I said, you can compile Canvas with LTO (Full or Thin) to not only improve its performance but also potentially reduce memory usage

[lament rock]

My encoding solutions would be quite simple. Just create the background and copy the base and stitch a frame of the user's avatar to it then push those to the encoder

[earnest phoenix]

Then you should be good to go

[lament rock]

[earnest phoenix]

I also fixed multiple memory leaks in Canvas itself but a new update hasn't been released that includes those fixes

[lament rock]

Oh. Is there an ETA on that?

I may just be tempted to wait for that

[earnest phoenix]

I have absolutely no idea, I fixed them a few months ago I think and yet no new releases

[lament rock]

Could just build manually tbh

[earnest phoenix]

Though I'm not really sure if these memory leaks are on hot or common paths so you can just use it and update when the release is available

[lament rock]

oh fair

[earnest phoenix]

What platform do you host the bot on?

[lament rock]

ubuntu

tho I dev exclusively on windows

[earnest phoenix]

You can run the following to compile with LTO (note that you gotta remove the package-lock.json file and the node_modules directory):

$ CFLAGS='-flto' CXXFLAGS='-flto' npm i

Though note that Ubuntu uses the GCC compiler and doesn't have the Clang compiler installed so you won't be able to compile with ThinLTO with GCC which is better than just GCC's LTO

Clang also generally emits better and faster assembly than GCC so I'd recommend switching to it

[lament rock]

what if I use yarn?

same thing?

[earnest phoenix]

Yep

[lament rock]

Thanks

[earnest phoenix]

You're welcome

[prisma nebula]

How can I update replit to the last version

?

[lyric mountain]

u don't, it's always in the latest

do u mean node?

[prisma nebula]

Idk it always show flags error

All my codes are fine

[lyric mountain]

show the error

[prisma nebula]

Sec

Here we go

[lyric mountain]

...?

[neon leaf]

I could cry

[lyric mountain]

how are u registering 'em?

[prisma nebula]

It is sending

[neon leaf]

https://pastes.dev/bJoYX5kd7s

[lyric mountain]

events in events is really really bad

even if it's once

[prisma nebula]

Type error : cannot read properties of undefined reading 'FLAGS')

[neon leaf]

well if there is no other way`🤷

[lyric mountain]

show an image of the error

[prisma nebula]

Sec

[lyric mountain]

there're location info in the stacktrace, to know where it happened

[neon leaf]

the leak is coming from when I do auto reconnect, without it it runs fine

[prisma nebula]

Image sending

[lyric mountain]

save the internal event to an outside variable

then close it inside socket close

[prisma nebula]

Iam not really a very pro coder last time I coded 3 years ago iam just doing now a basic code urgently

[lyric mountain]

here

[lyric mountain]

whatever ur trying to do, you're tryng to use FLAGS.properties but FLAGS isn't defined in the scope

did you write the code yourself?

[prisma nebula]

What should I do

[lyric mountain]

idk, I'm still waiting for the image

[prisma nebula]

I tried chat gpt but it is trash now ian struggling alone

[lyric mountain]

don't use chatgpt for fixing code, it doesn't work

chances are you'll just add another error to it

[prisma nebula]

Also iam using prefix bcz slash always shows errorsi worked like 6 hours it is only 4 commands

[lyric mountain]

did you write that code yourself?

[neon leaf]

interesting, I thought each of those were always a seperate instance

it seems to work

[quartz kindle]

you're not supposed to be using the socket event

[neon leaf]

hm?

[quartz kindle]

sockets can be reused under the hood

[lyric mountain]

they are separate, this is why it's leaking (ur creating a listener but not closing it)

[quartz kindle]

listen to the response event instead

[neon leaf]

thanks

[prisma nebula]

Yes

[neon leaf]

uhhh

it doesnt seem to reconnect anymore actually

this is my current state https://pastes.dev/niBpXAaqzQ

[quartz kindle]

why are you using socket and not response? if you wanna handle raw http might as well use the tls or net modules

[neon leaf]

I dont want to mess with http/ssl boilerplate

[quartz kindle]

well, i dont see why it shouldnt be reconnecting

[neon leaf]

seems like the events arent firing

[quartz kindle]

shouldnt need to manually destroy them tho

ah

well

the right way is to attach an end event to the response

but you dont use response

[neon leaf]

even that isnt firing

ah no

wait

it doesnt fire if the server was never online

makes sense

but how can I still make it reconnect in that case

[quartz kindle]

if the connection did not succeed, the request should emit an error event no?

[neon leaf]

nope

[quartz kindle]

although close should also be emitted regardless

[neon leaf]

doesnt seem to

turns out I also have to listen to the timeout event

[quartz kindle]

huh

weird

[neon leaf]

wtf

its spamming the timeout event like crazy

even though im connected

im confused

[quartz kindle]

@_@

just use a tls socket

you dont need to setup any ssl stuff

you're not a server, you're the client

[prisma nebula]

Can anyone help me coding something just so basic pls

I gave up

My codes

[wheat mesa]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[prisma nebula]

Can any1 help

[neon leaf]

it turned out to be me not doing .removeAllListeners() (?)
anyways that was just a test to try to even get anything working, now for the hard part I want to make that browser and node compatible, the current solution only works with node

[prisma nebula]

@lyric mountain here it is

[lyric mountain]

Show what's in index line 3

I suppose that's where ur creating the bot client

If so, don't blindly copypaste the example code

[prisma nebula]

const client = new Client({ intents: [Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS] });

[lyric mountain]

Ah, nvm then

I don't think it's uppercase FLAGS

[prisma nebula]

What

[lyric mountain]

Type Intents. then press ctrl space

Variables are case sensitive

FLAGS is not equal to Flags or flags

Whatever that lib uses

[prisma nebula]

Lol

So what I use

Iam confused

[neon leaf]

@quartz kindle do you know what the best way to get this working in browser & node would be? for some reason EventSource is just not working (probably because I am still not sending proper sse)

[prisma nebula]

flags.guilds ?

[lyric mountain]

^

Let the editor tell you what you should use

[prisma nebula]

It says nothing

😫

[lyric mountain]

What library are u using?

D.js?

[prisma nebula]

Yes

Discord.js

[lyric mountain]

https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/intents.html

[prisma nebula]

I really just need to know what I need to write

Do I have to read it all

[lyric mountain]

We don't give copypaste-ready codes here

We show u the way, and help with questions

[prisma nebula]

Doesn't make sence for 2 words

[lyric mountain]

If you're making a bot you need to get used to reading the documentation, discord.js even gives u guides for popular topics

[lyric mountain]

Then u didn't read

Don't jump to the code, read the context

[deft wolf]

Just download bot from github at this point

[spark flint]

https://i-am-a.dev moment

[prisma nebula]

I mean

Flags fLags FLAGS

All doesn't work

ETf

[lyric mountain]

Ctrl space

Don't try to guess it

[prisma nebula]

Idh ctrl

IAm obligated to code on phone rn

[lyric mountain]

Ah

Well, then documentation is thw only way

[prisma nebula]

Bruh 2 words took 6 hrs lpp

[lyric mountain]

https://old.discordjs.dev/#/docs/discord.js/main/general/welcome

Search for Client

[prisma nebula]

I guess it isn't the issue

NONE works

I've used docs ones

Still same error presist

[lyric mountain]

Check which version you're using

Latest is v14

[prisma nebula]

Iam using latest

I also downloaded it in shell

[lyric mountain]

Djs?

[prisma nebula]

Yes

[lyric mountain]

Why didn't u use npm?

[prisma nebula]

I did use npm

Npm install discord.js@latest

I sent this or simillar one

I dont rmember

[lyric mountain]

Don't think ur supposed to add @latest

What version is in package.json?

[prisma nebula]

Ok anyways what should I do with rhay

That

Let me chrck

Idk I didn't install smtng like that

[lyric mountain]

U don't edit packages manually, but everything u install with npm is listed there

[prisma nebula]

My issue is just with 2 word

[quartz kindle]

i wouldnt know really, never used sse, but id try to understand what exactly is the sse sending so i could emulate what the browser does with a node client

by logging raw tcp packets

for example

[lyric mountain]

Thing is, if u read the docs I sent and it still doesn't work then it's likely version mismatch

Try starting the bot without any intent

[prisma nebula]

Will that work

[lyric mountain]

It's supposed to

But the bot will be as functional as a vegetable

[quartz kindle]

intents are required since v13, if it works it means hes using v12 or lower

[prisma nebula]

I'll do that tomorrow it is 1:12AM iam so tired I spent 6hr trying to do it

[lyric mountain]

Always check the docs if you're struggling

Trying to guess properties or methods never works well

And as long as it might be, usually the issue is solved within minutes

[prisma nebula]

If a pc user got invited to my repl he can fix it?

[lyric mountain]

Well, yes

But not me, I'm busy with other stuff

[prisma nebula]

Anyone free here

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[lyric mountain]

Also having someone else do it for you will do no good for u

[wheat mesa]

nobody is going to code for you

unless you pay them

[prisma nebula]

Not code just a button to click

[wheat mesa]

plus if you want to learn, then don't have other people write code for you

[prisma nebula]

Because iam not on pc

[lyric mountain]

You'll still don't know the issue, so you'll be always dependant on someone else

[prisma nebula]

I just need sm1 to click ctrl+ space

[lyric mountain]

Quick dip on the docs will solve it easily

[prisma nebula]

To chrck

[lyric mountain]

Ctrl space won't show the properties to u

Only to who pressed

[prisma nebula]

Just to select the option

[quartz kindle]

does replit even support auto completition in the web editor?

[lyric mountain]

I think so

[neon leaf]

yes

[quartz kindle]

fancy

[prisma nebula]

I'll try tomorrow iam tired that bot is so important to finish

[lyric mountain]

Did u even code the rest of it already?

[prisma nebula]

Everything is done

Just stuck their

[lyric mountain]

Then yeah, u didn't code the bot

[quartz kindle]

copied from somewhere?

[prisma nebula]

No airpurple did them for me

[lyric mountain]

Wherever u copied it from, see if there are no instructions on how to configure

[lyric mountain]

Why didn't they fix that?

[quartz kindle]

also make sure the code is compatible with the discord.js version you installed

[prisma nebula]

That's my cousin he said I can help last time I coded a powerfull bot in 3 years before I retire but my team scammed me

Stole codes and made different bots

[lyric mountain]

Well...

[quartz kindle]

lel

[prisma nebula]

Don't ask me he said replit sucks

[lyric mountain]

They're right tbh

I mean, for mobile there's not much u can use

[prisma nebula]

I also didn't use replit it always show useless things

Also their is nowhere to copy or clone the current bot source iam doing

I dont think anyone did this idea yet

[lyric mountain]

Doubt it, but most bot repos are private anyway

If ur afraid someone might steal the code it's best to not invite anyone to the replit

Actually, does replit still allow private projects?

[prisma nebula]

No it is not important codes it is just announcements:

Additem ( name info photo)
Checkitem added by botadmin
Promote and demote user pwrms in using the additem command and updatechannel wheir it send new item added onfo and photo etc

[prisma nebula]

Not for free

[lyric mountain]

the link I sent has the full example on setting up a bot

but given u had it called Intent, I'm afraid ur code is outdated

yep

it's for version 13

if u installed djs with npm then you're on version 14

so it wont work

may I say, in that case FLAGS is not your only problem

[prisma nebula]

Bruh

I need to update codes ?

To 14?

[lyric mountain]

or u can uninstall djs and force version 13

[prisma nebula]

How

[lyric mountain]

but then you'll be on the line, as version 15 is releasing soon

so v13 will be the next to be abandoned since v12 goes down when v15 releases

[prisma nebula]

Can't I just work on 1 version those new versions are annoying qf

[lyric mountain]

issue is discord updates a lot

so they need to make new versions to include those changes

[prisma nebula]

Oof

[lyric mountain]

(tho d.js devs don't really need to completely rewrite the lib every update)

[earnest phoenix]

anyone know any cheap hostigns

for bots

[prisma nebula]

Online ai can't update codes?

[lyric mountain]

so there are two choices

• revert to version 13 and live with the risk of eventual breaks
• refactor code to be valid for version 14

[lyric mountain]

nope

[lyric mountain]

galaxygate, hetzner and contabo

only know those 3

[prisma nebula]

Everything in this life useless

Why do I need to recreate

Bruh

[lyric mountain]

that's the life of a programmer

code that never needs to be maintained doesn't exist

it's the philosopher's stone of coding

[prisma nebula]

Shouldn't they do ais for that

[lyric mountain]

ai cant solve everything

[prisma nebula]

It could

[lyric mountain]

nah, they simply can't read your mind to be able to write a code that maintains the exact same functionality

don't be lazy, eventual refactors are commonplace

[quartz kindle]

im refactoring my shit rn lol

changing a bunch of stuff

[prisma nebula]

I have tons of thing to do I mean can't they translate

[lyric mountain]

me too, still on it for a year already

[lyric mountain]

buddy, look, there are no shortcuts, simple as that

get ur hands on the dough and start shaping that bread

[prisma nebula]

I was building my dream bot when I got scammed and now I just need a small bot for a hobby

[prisma nebula]

Idw to put effort on smtng small each time I do I remember how huge my project was and I feel pain

[quartz kindle]

if you want to own a discord bot, then you will have to maintain it as well, its part of the job.
you will make code for one specific version, then when there is an update, you need to check what was updated, and check if those updates affect your bot, and if they do, you will have to adapt your bot to the new versions, or stay in the old version and risk your bot breaking at some point

thats what being a developer means

[prisma nebula]

Yes but it hurts me anyways now ill consider my small bot my new baby

[lyric mountain]

accept the previous bot is gone and move on

[prisma nebula]

It had everything

It is like mee6 and Carl combined

Anyways now I have a new baby

😁

I'll start from tomorrow

[quartz kindle]

good luck!

[prisma nebula]

Thanks

[hushed robin]

just like my bot

☹️

[quartz kindle]

paradigm cycle:
you start writing a giant procedural shit
rewrite everything into classes because oop is cool
realize you made a huge mess and is a pain to maintain
rewrite everything into small functions and go functional style <- this is where i am now lmao

[hushed robin]

I don’t get the point of classes

[lyric mountain]

just use normal git, or the one included in vscode

[hushed robin]

GitHub is stupid

it deleted all my code

[peak drum]

even top.gg discord going down

[hushed robin]

so I’m switching to gitlab

[quartz kindle]

lmao same

[hushed robin]

why

[lyric mountain]

LMAO U REALLY THINK GITHUB IS GIT

[quartz kindle]

top.gg server just went offline for like 30 sec

[peak drum]

[hushed robin]

it is basically

[lyric mountain]

be it github, gitlab, bitbucket, svn, whatever, if you don't pay attention to what ur doing the same will happen again

[hushed robin]

bro

I didn’t do anything

[lyric mountain]

it has nothing in common

FFS DISCORD LEMME ARGUE

[lyric mountain]

it's the same as car and carpet

[quartz kindle]

lmao again

[quartz kindle]

git is a versioning system that manages files
github is a platform that hosts files for you and uses the git system to sync them
gitlab is also a platform that hosts files for you and uses the git system to sync them

[lyric mountain]

for context tim, e0c resetted his entire 4-day uncommited project

[quartz kindle]

rip

tbh i also have a giant backlog of uncomitted stuff

but i have a second backup on google drive lel

[lyric mountain]

I commit after every single time I leave the keyboard

[quartz kindle]

well,

i dont

lmao

[lyric mountain]

danger boy

[quartz kindle]

also

tiny-discord

havent worked on it in months

sometimes i change a bunch of stuff, then leave it shelved for a while

when i go back to it i have to relearn wtf did i change and why

and i dont wanna commit because many changes are not finished so the code is pretty much in a broken state

[hushed robin]

don’t

GitHub desktop deleted my bots rewr it e that took days to make

[quartz kindle]

well then that happens its likely because you did something wrong

and also, i have a backup on google drive

[hushed robin]

I did everything right

GitHub Desktop is glitched

[quartz kindle]

yeah right

[hushed robin]

bro I clicked commit

then all my code reverted to old code

[wheat mesa]

probably did you a favor

[quartz kindle]

Lol

[quartz kindle]

well rip, idk what happened but that is not normal

it never happened to me

but in any case its good to have backups

i have all my projects in a folder that autosyncs with google drive

[hushed robin]

???

why

[proven lantern]

@hushed robin status update?

[hushed robin]

blocked 👍

[proven lantern]

oh, i know how to revert code after a git commit

[hushed robin]

how do I fetch a message in discordjs

[quartz kindle]

channel.messages.fetch(id)

[hushed robin]

but

what if I wanna

fetch from any channel

do I need to looo through all the channels

[quartz kindle]

messages belong to channels

there is no way to find messages if you dont know the channel

also there is no way to search through messages through the api

discord does not expose the search api that we have in the discord client

[hushed robin]

so in conclusion I need to

[quartz kindle]

by what criteria are you trying to find the message?

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[quartz kindle]

nice

[hushed robin]

by message I’d

[quartz kindle]

link soon™️ maybe?

[quartz kindle]

if you're storing the message id in a database to fetch it later, you need to store the channel id as well

[hushed robin]

make the text typing thing better

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hushed robin]

no

by id only

[quartz kindle]

not possible

[hushed robin]

it is

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hushed robin]

I will just loop through all channels

to fetch message

[quartz kindle]

woah, alive for 37 months

[quartz kindle]

define "all" channels

surely not "all discord channels in all servers ever"

[hushed robin]

yea

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[wheat mesa]

Yes because that’s so much easier and more efficient than storing an extra bigint in a database 🥰

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hushed robin]

SQLite doesn’t have binging

[wheat mesa]

It’ll be funny if someone uses that feature on a server with hundreds of channels

Enjoy your ratelimiting

[hushed robin]

it’ll be fine

[wheat mesa]

Famous last words

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[quartz kindle]

enjoy trying to guess channel ids as well

[wheat mesa]

I do

[hushed robin]

I’m not

[wheat mesa]

Much more than I could do 😭 I hate frontend

[hushed robin]

I will just loop through them all

[quartz kindle]

there is no way to list all channels in discord

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hushed robin]

there is

[quartz kindle]

from a server yes, not for all discord

[hushed robin]

client.guilds.cache

[quartz kindle]

thays for a server, not for entire discord

and in the very least you need to know the guild id

[hushed robin]

well ofc I’m not going to check the entirety of discord

If my bots isn’t in the server it can’t edit the message anyways

lol

[quartz kindle]

so if you already need tje guild id along with the message id, why not add the channel id

[hushed robin]

I don’t need the guild id

client.guilds.cache will give me all of my bots cached channels in all guilds

which since I have the guilds intents it will be all of them

[quartz kindle]

so instead of searching throight a couple dozen channels you want to search through thousands of channels

got it

[earnest phoenix]

Who the hell at GitHub fucked up the C syntax highlighter

[wheat mesa]

Smartest battleless solution

[wheat mesa]

Next question: who the fuck is writing code like this?

[quartz kindle]

good luck having your search be stupidly slow and cause rate ljmit errors

[hushed robin]

technically it will only be about 50 max

since this bot is only for my server

[wheat mesa]

50 is a lot when you’re fetching

Could literally save yourself a ratelimit nightmare by just saving one channel ID

It’s not that hard

You’re acting like it’s rocket science

[hushed robin]

but that’s an extra value for the person to add

[quartz kindle]

there is absolutely no reason not to save the channel id

[hushed robin]

I’d prefer a more user friendly experience

[earnest phoenix]

That's the IDNA code in libuv, it's written by one of the best C programmers in the world, if you're talking about the formatting that's because of GitHub Mobile

[quartz kindle]

huh???

[wheat mesa]

I meant the variable names mostly 😭

[quartz kindle]

wym friendly user exoerience, how is the user chosing whicj message to save?

[earnest phoenix]

Oh fair

[hushed robin]

bc they can pick whichever one they want

[quartz kindle]

so whayever message they picked, save its channel id as well

the user doesbt need to tell you, you get ir from the message

[hushed robin]

bru

u just said I can’t fetch a message without the channel

they user will provide the message I’d

[quartz kindle]

you want the user to give you a message id ?

thats not very user friendly eitherway lol

[hushed robin]

😐

[quartz kindle]

its more user friendly if you ask for a message link for example

[wheat mesa]

Can you even copy message IDs without developer mode on?

[quartz kindle]

since the user can just right click and copy message link

[queen needle]

Nope

[quartz kindle]

the nessage id you only get with dev mode enabled

a lot of users dont know how to get it

[hushed robin]

hm true

maybe I’ll just scrap this totally

[wheat mesa]

Good idea 👍

[hushed robin]

😐

why are you always hating

[proven lantern]

last part of the url is the message id

[wheat mesa]

Well yes but the average user doesn’t know that

[hushed robin]

yeah because discord users aren’t smart

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hushed robin]

old looks better

[dusk field]

Does anyone want to help me solve an error exam?

@sage bobcat help me

[rustic nova]

Probably a bad idea to help you in an exan

exam

Figure it out yourself, if you can't, keep a note of it and try to learn about it

[hushed robin]

can u use followUp on an interaction you've already replied to?

i thought u could

[pale vessel]

you could

[hushed robin]

hm

why am i getting Error [InteractionAlreadyReplied]: The reply to this interaction has already been sent or deferred.

if (!queueData.channel || !queueData.message) return await interaction.followUp({
            content: `The queue message has not been sent!`,
            ephemeral: true
        });

[pale vessel]

the interaction should be a new one I believe

it would not work if you reply, and then do a follow up under the same interaction

[hushed robin]

then wtf is the point of it

[hushed robin]

how do i add a user channel permission in discord.js

[hushed robin]

Those should be now done

Now time to read

[lament rock]

So much work but really happy with the outcome :)

[hushed robin]

what’s this

[lament rock]

profiles

[hushed robin]

for what

[lament rock]

my bot??

[hushed robin]

what’s your bot

[lament rock]

[hushed robin]

nice

[hushed robin]

what version of discord.js r u using

[prisma nebula]

V 14

[hushed robin]

well

that’s v13 code

Intents is now GatewayIntentBits

and MessageEmbed is now EmbedBuilder

[prisma nebula]

Those all I need to replace?

[hushed robin]

yes

[prisma nebula]

Okay I'll do them and send

[hushed robin]

GatewayIntentBits.Guilds instead of Intents.Flags.Guilds

[prisma nebula]

Owh

I just need to change that small part

Not all

Right?

[hushed robin]

yea

[prisma nebula]

Thabbbkkks

[hushed robin]

then u need to change MessageEmbed to EmbedBuilder

and it may work

idk though cus that’s v13 code

you still may need to update some parts

u need to require GatewayIntentBits from discord.js

[prisma nebula]

Like

[hushed robin]

like 😋

[prisma nebula]

const { Client, Intents, EmbedBuilder, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');

const client = new Client({ 
  intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds],
});

client.once('ready', () => {
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}`);
});

client.on('interactionCreate', async (interaction) => {
  if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

  const { commandName, options } = interaction;

  if (commandName === 'addiots') {
    const name = options.getString('name');
    const info = options.getString('info');
    const image = options.getString('image');

    // Your code to add the iots with the provided information goes here

    await interaction.reply(`Added iots: ${name}`);
  } else if (commandName === 'checkiots') {
    const name = options.getString('name');

    // Your code to retrieve information about the specified iots goes here

    const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
      .setTitle(name)
      .setDescription('Some information about the iots');

    await interaction.reply({ embeds: [embed] });
  } else if (commandName === 'updatechannel') {
    const channel = options.getChannel('channel');

    // Your code to update the channel for sending iots information goes here

    await interaction.reply(`Updated channel to: ${channel}`);
  } else if (commandName === 'addpress') {
    // Check if the user is the owner of the bot
    if (interaction.user.id !== '1002843443992743996') {
      return await interaction.reply('You are not authorized to use this command.');
    }

    await interaction.reply('Press added successfully.');

      return await interaction.reply('You are not authorized to use this command.');
    }

    const admin = options.getUser('admin');

    // Your code to add an admin goes here

    await interaction.reply(`${admin} has been added as an admin.`);
  }
});

client.login('');

[hushed robin]

well

did you try it

[prisma nebula]

Yes it logged

Now need to check commands

Bot online but no commands

[hushed robin]

well

the code above doesn’t register any commands

so that’s why

[peak drum]

You need to register slash commands read the guides on discord.js.org

[prisma nebula]

Oh

Okay

[prisma nebula]

I didnt really understand how to register a command

It require coding or something else?

[deft wolf]

Just a little bit of rest request

[prisma nebula]

I need to create handler file

And make a sheet for every command?

[earnest phoenix]

https://discordjs.guide/creating-your-bot/slash-commands.html

Pretty explains every step thoroughly

[prisma nebula]

@earnest phoenix so in my index their is the codes for slash commands (string roles user etc....)
So i need to create commands folder and add for example addadmin. Then what to do

The codes of it are in index

Iam not professional sorry if they are dumb questions

[earnest phoenix]

Take the lines of code belonging to the specific commands and convert them to slash-commands, and separate them to different files like shown in that guide

[prisma nebula]

They are already slash commands so I skip the convert thing ?

[earnest phoenix]

Sure, then put them in different files in that commands directory that you've got, and follow the instructions outlined in the guide

[prisma nebula]

Okay

[prisma nebula]

@earnest phoenix iam testing it only on addadmin rn and still not showing I've moved codes to addadmin.js in commands file and placed this in index :

client.commands.set('addadmin', require('./commands/addadmin')); 

I added deploy command and file

const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest'); const { Routes } = require('discord-api-types/v9'); const { token, clientId, guildId } = require('./config.json'); const commands = [   require('./commands/addadmin'),   const rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(token);  (async () => {   try {     console.log('Started refreshing application (/) commands.');      await rest.put(       Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId),       { body: commands },     );      console.log('Successfully reloaded application (/) commands.');   } catch (error) {     console.error(error);   } })();

I also added config.json

And the command still not showing

[lyric mountain]

2 things

unless you want to eventually lose your bot, put token in replit secrets, instead of a plain json

and u don't need to create another client, or should, simply pass the client to the commands

I've formatted that code, no idea how you're coding like that

there's an error on the commands line

[deft wolf]

Are you gonna tell him?

[prisma nebula]

Their is not error in my thing

[lyric mountain]

if the code you sent is the full code, then yeah there's an error

[prisma nebula]

It is not

const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');

if (commandName === 'addadmin') {
    // Check if the user is the owner of the bot
    if (interaction.user.id !== '1002843443992743996') {
      return await interaction.reply('You are not authorized to use this command.');
    }

    const admin = options.getUser('admin');

    // Your code to add an admin goes here

    await interaction.reply(`${admin} has been added as an admin.`);
 }

Here for addadmin in commands file

[prisma nebula]

And for the index I placed the first code line In this message

And here for deploy
