See

[wheat mesa]

I need more code than what u sent

[sharp geyser]

https://hatebin.com/omeyyddwjc

[pale vessel]

since you're using request, it expects a sync http client, not async

use request_async if you want to provide an async http client

[sharp geyser]

Wait that’s a thing

😭

[compact pier]

I have a blob data of an image, how can I check, if that blob is jpg?

to prevent xss

[sharp geyser]

What language are you using here?

[compact pier]

typescript

or javascript

[sharp geyser]

so long as you have the blob you can use .type to get the MIME type

[compact pier]

yeah, but is there somehow that you can fake it?

[sharp geyser]

Not unless you let them pass in their own blob data

or have any access to what the data is

[compact pier]

what do you mean?

[sharp geyser]

Well

[compact pier]

I have a service worker, that allow to upload blob data via request

[lament rock]

I'm working on a set of Unity3D player controllers and this shit is a nightmare

[sharp geyser]

the easiest way to get the type is to just pass in the raw blob data to js' Blob constructor like let blob = new Blob(blobData) then blob.type.

you have to somehow control what blobData is in this case though if you are worried about them mutating it themselves

[compact pier]

ohhh

understood

thank you

[sharp geyser]

Looks like fun

But why unity?

[lament rock]

It's very fun!

VRChat

[sharp geyser]

gotcha

I am not surprised if games will soon be swapping away from unity ngl. Unless unity has fixed their little problem

[lament rock]

They did come up with something a lot more pallatable for devs

[sharp geyser]

Nice

So now they aren't completely screwed

I know before they were doing some outrageous pricing schemes

[lament rock]

Well. All of the trust people had in them for years is kinda out the window. Rather, they're skeptical

[sharp geyser]

charging per install

[lament rock]

I'm personally gonna keep using Unity. The changes are more than enough for me to continue

[sharp geyser]

Yea

[lament rock]

for my own game that is

[sharp geyser]

Me personally I wont be using Unity

[lament rock]

VRChat doesnt have to worry since they're free

[sharp geyser]

Don't they still do it anyway?

[lament rock]

Iirc, no

[sharp geyser]

I thought they charged 5 cent per install no matter what

[lament rock]

If you dont make money off your app, then you dont have to pay

is what I heard

[sharp geyser]

I mean doesn't VRChat still have IAPs?

[lament rock]

Well, yes, but I'm pretty sure Unity already gets a royalty from that. Them double dipping would be horrendous and I think was part of the problem initially

[sharp geyser]

Yea, I think Unity was trying to sneak that in there. Then again never saw the original report myself

Just went based off hearsay

[digital swan]

im having the weirdest issue with breejs. on my production server (vultr) everything works fine no issue

but on a test server (digitalocean) im running the same code just different database and bot, and randomly whenever a certain bree job ends, the main process is exited without any error or message.
bree is ran from main process while using discord-hybrid-sharding for clustering

bree scheduler: https://github.com/tekoh/nypsi/blob/main/src/scheduled/scheduler.ts
the job that causes it to exit: https://github.com/tekoh/nypsi/blob/main/src/scheduled/jobs/votereminders.ts

this happens randomly after a seemingly random amount of hours of the bot being online

[hidden gorge]

bot refuses to say im not a developer and crashes when shutdown is ran but prints no error

Code:

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


module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
    .setName('shutdown')
    .setDescription("DEVELOPER COMMAND"),

    async execute(interaction) {

        const shutdownEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("RoSearcher Has Shutdown")
        .setColor("Green")

        const notadevEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("You are not a developer")
        .setColor("Red")


        if (interaction.user.id == "919674489581731842") {
            await interaction.reply({ embeds: [shutdownEmbed] });
            process.exit(0)

            
        }

        if (!interaction.user.id == "919674489581731842") {
            await interaction.reply({ embeds: [notadevEmbed]});
        }
    }
}

[digital swan]

use !=

or you could just use else

[vivid fulcrum]

or structure your logic so you don't need an else 🙃

[digital swan]

more readable imo

[craggy pine]

if(!thing) {
whatever
return
}

shutdownEmbed
processExit

No else needed.

[hidden gorge]

that worked...

[tulip ledge]

not per se he could keep it like he has and just remove the last if statement, since if the dev calls it the process is shutdown anyway if it's not the dev it'll just reply with notadevembed

[lyric mountain]

also use === not ==, unless you want to meet the funny side of JS

btw just expanding on why it worked, when u do if (!something == thing) you're converting the first value to boolean, which will make == compare both sides as booleans, meaning it'll always end up being if (false == true) if the both values are non-empty strings

[digital swan]

bump xxx

[stark abyss]

how would I get this to be in RREF?
let matrix = [
[1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 15],
[0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 15],
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 15],
[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 15],
[0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 15],
[1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 15],
[0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 15],
[0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 15]
];
you can assume the matrix is going to only contain 1s because matrix comes from the magic square

ok

[hidden gorge]

instantly goes to Confirmation not received instead of waiting 1 minute for a response or no response

Code:

     
try {
    const confirmation = await response.awaitMessageComponent({time: 60_000 });

    if (confirmation.customId === 'shutdownconfirm') {
        await confirmation.update({ embeds: [offEmbed], components: [] });
        process.exit(0);
    } else if (confirmation.customId === 'shutdowncancel') {
        await confirmation.update({ content: 'Action cancelled', components: [] });
    }
} catch (e) {
    await interaction.editReply({ content: 'Confirmation not received within 1 minute, cancelling', components: [] });
}
    }
}

    async execute(interaction) {

        const shutdownEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("Confirm Shutdown RoSearcher")
        .setColor("Yellow")

        const notadevEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("You are not a developer")
        .setColor("Red")

        const offEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("RoSearcher Shutdown")
        .setColor("Green")

        const Confirm = new ButtonBuilder()
        .setCustomId('shutdownconfirm')
        .setLabel('Confirm')
        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Danger)

        const Cancel = new ButtonBuilder()
        .setCustomId('shutdowncancel')
        .setLabel('Cancel')
        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Success)

        const row = new ActionRowBuilder()
        .addComponents(Confirm, Cancel)

        if (interaction.user.id == "919674489581731842") {
            await interaction.reply({ embeds: [shutdownEmbed], components: [row], });

[wheat mesa]

Well something is causing an error, log e in your catch block instead of ignoring it

[hidden gorge]

ok i'll do that

oh

ooo

[hidden gorge]

uhhh

this is the full code:

const { ButtonBuilder, ActionRowBuilder, ButtonStyle, SlashCommandBuilder, EmbedBuilder } = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
    .setName('shutdown')
    .setDescription("DEVELOPER COMMAND"),

    async execute(interaction) {

        const shutdownEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("Confirm Shutdown RoSearcher")
        .setColor("Yellow")

        const notadevEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("You are not a developer")
        .setColor("Red")

        const offEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle("RoSearcher Shutdown")
        .setColor("Green")

        const ConfirmButton = new ButtonBuilder()
        .setCustomId('shutdownconfirm')
        .setLabel('Confirm')
        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Danger)

        const CancelButton = new ButtonBuilder()
        .setCustomId('shutdowncancel')
        .setLabel('Cancel')
        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Success)

        const row = new ActionRowBuilder()
        .addComponents(ConfirmButton, CancelButton)

        if (interaction.user.id == "919674489581731842") {
            const response =  interaction.reply({ embeds: [shutdownEmbed], components: [row], });
            const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id;
            try {
                const confirmation =  response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000 });
            
                if (confirmation.customId === 'shutdownconfirm') {
                     confirmation.update({ embeds: [offEmbed], components: [] });
                    process.exit(0);
                } else if (confirmation.customId === 'shutdowncancel') {
                     confirmation.update({ content: 'Action cancelled', components: [] });
                }
            } catch (e) {
                console.log(e)
                 interaction.editReply({ content: 'Confirmation not received within 1 minute, cancelling', components: [] });
            }
                }
            
            
    
        if (interaction.user.id != "919674489581731842") {
             interaction.reply({ embeds: [notadevEmbed]});
        }

    }

    }

[wheat mesa]

you did not await the interaction.reply in your const response = ... line

[hidden gorge]

oh

i did that same error

[wheat mesa]

show me

[hidden gorge]

i fixed it...

im so stupid

[hidden gorge]

Once again i'm sorry to ask but my Error handler refuses to dm me when i get an error:

client.on('error', (error) => {
  console.error('Discord.js error:', error);

  const userId = 919674489581731842;
  const user = client.users.cache.get(userId);

  console.log('User ID:', userId);

  if (user) {
    user.send(`An error occurred:\n\`\`\`${error.message}\`\`\``)
      .then(() => console.log('Error message sent successfully.'))
      .catch((sendError) => console.error('Error sending message:', sendError));
  } else {
    console.error(`User with ID ${userId} not found.`);
  }
});

[pale vessel]

make your user id a string. it's trying to find a user with the id 919674489581731800 which isn't your user id

[hidden gorge]

can u explain that to me please my brain hurts 😭

[deft wolf]

Change it to "919674489581731842"

[hidden gorge]

oh

[digital swan]

im having the weirdest issue with breejs. on my production server (vultr) everything works fine no issue

this happens randomly after a seemingly random amount of hours of the bot being online

[hidden gorge]

i did that and it still failed

[deft wolf]

What error do you have then?

[hidden gorge]

i dont have one exept for the command error im using for testing

[pale vessel]

are you sure the user is cached? use const user = await client.users.fetch(userId); to make sure it's fetched

[hidden gorge]

did that and added async but still fails

client.on('error', async (error) => {
  console.error('Discord.js error:', error);

  const userId = "919674489581731842";
  const user = await client.users.fetch(userId);
  console.log('User ID:', userId);

  if (user) {
    user.send(`An error occurred:\n\`\`\`${error.message}\`\`\``)
      .then(() => console.log('Error message sent successfully.'))
      .catch((sendError) => console.error('Error sending message:', sendError));
  } else {
    console.error(`User with ID ${userId} not found.`);
  }
});

[pale vessel]

it didn't log anything?

[hidden gorge]

no logs

[pale vessel]

then the event isn't being triggered at all

unless that first console.error() did log something

[hidden gorge]

i wonder if its getting cancelled out by the slash command error handler

[pale vessel]

client's error event is only for gateway errors i believe

a command handler's error won't go there

[hidden gorge]

added it to the built in error handler for slash commands and it semi works

[pale vessel]

least vague error

[hidden gorge]

yeah idk why it said that and not the full error

[limpid hatch]

Oi

[pale vessel]

so it sent it fine? what's the issue now

[hidden gorge]

no issue

[wheat mesa]

this formatting hurts me

Also mixing await with .then

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-dies-gif-21956120

[hidden gorge]

bruh

[pale vessel]

there's nothing wrong with that. it's less confusing than a nest of await (await func()) func()

[cursive sand]

Gm

[hidden gorge]

oh

is it a good idea that im updating the bots status when i get an error?

[spark flint]

error isn't an event afaik

[hidden gorge]

it works tho

but my code is still a mess

[spark flint]

thats for connection errors not for bot code errors

[pale vessel]

no, it isn't

that'll only confuse users and it's not a good reason to change your bot's presence every time an error occurs

it makes zero sense

[hidden gorge]

its mainly for testing rn

gonna remove the error status when its done

[real rose]

-b @cursive sand silly twitter ads, not the place for it

[hidden gorge]

oh

[spark flint]

you can do https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/node-js-process-unhandledrejection-event/

[hidden gorge]

InteractionAlreadyReplied on interaction.showModal(modal)

  const modal = new ModalBuilder()
            .setCustomId('BanModal')
            .setTitle('Ban Modal');

            const Reason = new TextInputBuilder()
            .setCustomId("BanReason")
            .setLabel("Reason")
            .setStyle(TextInputStyle.Short)
            const firstActionRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(Reason);

            modal.addComponents(firstActionRow)

        if (interaction.user.id === "919674489581731842") {

            const response = await interaction.reply({ embeds: [BanPanel], components: [row]})
            const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id;

            try {
                const confirmation  = await response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000});
                if (confirmation.customId === "OpenBanPanelButton") {
                     interaction.showModal(modal);
                }
            } catch (e) {
                console.log(e)
            }

        }

[deft wolf]

You are trying to display the modal by replying to interaction which in this case is the slash command that you have already replied to

[hidden gorge]

what would i do then?

[deft wolf]

Think about whether you should respond to a slash command or a button

[hidden gorge]

im still wondering what i would use instead

[deft wolf]

When should the modal appear?

[hidden gorge]

when i click the OpenPanelButton

[deft wolf]

Okay, so what is the button click event in your code?

[hidden gorge]

its this code here:

  const response = await interaction.reply({ embeds: [BanPanel], components: [row]})
            const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id;

            try {
                const confirmation  = await response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000});
                if (confirmation.customId === "OpenBanPanelButton") {
                     interaction.showModal(modal);
                }
            } catch (e) {
                console.log(e)
            }

[deft wolf]

Still don't see where the problem is?

[hidden gorge]

i need to find a way for the modal to show

[deft wolf]

You need to display it when someone clicks the button

[hidden gorge]

yes

[deft wolf]

You can't respond to the same interaction twice

[hidden gorge]

bro then how tf do i do this???

[deft wolf]

Assign the modal display to a button, not an interaction

[hidden gorge]

bro ur not helping at all

[craggy pine]

Buttons create their own "Intereactions" when clicked. Not the main interaction.

[deft wolf]

You are just not understanding

[hidden gorge]

no ur not helping

[deft wolf]

Okey

Good luck

[fierce orbit]

When you click the button that is 1 interaction. When you try and open a modal that is another interaction. You need to assign when the button is clicked, a different interaction is going to be sent. That is best I can explain it

[hidden gorge]

i fixed it

[fierce orbit]

Nice

[hidden gorge]

i just got mad enough i removed the button in general

[fierce orbit]

💀

[deft wolf]

XD

[craggy pine]

Lololol

It really isn't that complicated. A simple google search found the answer pretty quickly for me.

[fierce orbit]

Interactions I see like functions in math, x are interactions, can never have more then 1 x or the function is false

[hidden gorge]

now i need to learn how to Read and write to JSON files

[deft wolf]

Are you gonna make json database?

[hidden gorge]

blacklist json file

[craggy pine]

https://tenor.com/view/squidward-squidward-tentacles-spongebob-look-around-awkward-gif-496727432057798195

So basically a JSON database.

[hidden gorge]

if the users id is the JSON file and they run a slash command it returns an embed saying you have been blacklisted from the bot

wouldnt i use fs for that?

[fierce orbit]

I probably should make a blacklist command, the amount of homophobes that have used my bot negatively 😭

[hidden gorge]

my bot interacts with apis so i thats why im adding a blacklist

[craggy pine]

I would just learn to use a database, which is also a really simple process and much better imo than using a JSON file.

ESPECIALLY if this bot is public

[hidden gorge]

i tried MongoDB i hate it

[craggy pine]

There are other DBs than Mongo

I use MariaDB

[hidden gorge]

ehhh

[real rose]

whos jason

[fierce orbit]

I use mongo bc I am too lazy to switch

[real rose]

ok

[lyric mountain]

if you want to keep it simple, there's sqlite

it's a good beginner database because there's almost literally no setup to it

also it's very barebones - no triggers, users, procedures, functions, nothing

just you, types and tables

and switching to another database later on is easier due to this too

[wheat mesa]

do not do this

[earnest phoenix]

Postgres is nice & comfy, but if you really want bare bones, SQLite is braindead. Although, you might want to read into its tendency to lock its DB on writes. Postgres doesn't suffer from the same thing.

[wheat mesa]

It is going to be slow

And chances are you’re going to fuck something up unless you know what you’re doing with reads and writes

Postgres is an awesome option, mongo is easier to get into

[earnest phoenix]

^ Json has the chance at file corruption/data loss as well.

I mean, ig that's basically what Waffle said, kek.

[lyric mountain]

no longer an issue on newer versions

[earnest phoenix]

Oh? SQLite no longer suffers from DB locking?

[lyric mountain]

I mean, i does, but it now manages concurrent writes such that you don't need to worry about it anymore

at the end of the day any file-based db is subject to file locking

still wont match postgres performance, but as a starter it's a good option

especially because postgres has all types sqlite has, so migrating is seamless

[hidden gorge]

i already did it and it works

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, for now.

[hidden gorge]

i should really make myself immune to that

done

[wheat mesa]

It works does not mean it will work forever

JSON “databases” are duct tape solutions to a bigger problem of not knowing how to use a real database

i have so many questions about that video

[green kestrel]

I only have two:

WTF
and
WHY

"boss, we can't afford to have this wreck towed..."
"ok does it still drive"
"uh yes but not legally"
"I didn't ask that I said does it drive"
"well yes but... but..."
"ok then! cya in a bit, drive it to the breakers yard!"

[surreal sage]

okay this makes no sense

[surreal sage]

image is next/image

but <picture><img/></picture> does work

[green kestrel]

yay progress made 😄

[crystal wigeon]

Hey does anyone use aws with route 53?

I saw someone was using aws here before

Would be nice if someone can help me with a-b testing my product

[sharp geyser]

What are you cooking up now

[green kestrel]

multi player RPG game through a bot

like a MUD

[sharp geyser]

Werent you working on a AI bot?

[green kestrel]

yes I'm done on that for a bit just gotta wait for it to grow

[sharp geyser]

icic

[green kestrel]

but if it doesn't, like sporks didn't grow fast, this is my backup plan

[sharp geyser]

I was planning on trying to make a bot myself again

[green kestrel]

what you going to make

[sharp geyser]

an RPG bot probably

I've always wanted to make something RPG but discord was always limiting, then again I don't even have the stuff I need to make a graphical rpg so discord it is

[shrewd shadow]

lgtm

[green kestrel]

would you play it?

if people want to play it, then it does the job lol

[spark flint]

how would you guys optimise PSQL

i have a db that is currently using over 100gb with close to 200 million entries into the table

using indexes but its still taking minutes to query

const { rows } = await client.query(`SELECT * FROM data WHERE domain LIKE '$1' OR hostname LIKE '$1' LIMIT $2 OFFSET $3`, [`%${query}%, limit, skip]);```

thats my currently query

const { rows } = await client.query(`SELECT * FROM data WHERE addresses @> $1 LIMIT $2 OFFSET $3`, [`{${ip}}`, limit, skip]);``` this is another

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM data also takes like 5 minutes

i've adjusted the db to allow higher memory usage etc (64gb ram, 8 core server), that made a difference for a day or so but is slow again now

[sharp geyser]

ask chatgpt

[spark flint]

already did

that helped tbh

it told me what conf changes to make to optimise the servers resources

[sharp geyser]

I assume you are using connection pooling so its not just going through one connection right?

[spark flint]

i dont know

i usually use mongo but people told me to use pg

[sharp geyser]

Okay I would look into connection pooling, it will help by reusing existing connections and might improve response times. Also using LIMIT and OFFSET are very costly from what I recall

[spark flint]

so for pools, when do i use await pool.connect()

not per query is it

[sharp geyser]

It should be at the very start

[spark flint]

like this

and not like this

[sharp geyser]

if you call release it will shut the app down iirc

[spark flint]

oh lovely

[sharp geyser]

I haven't used the pg library in ages though so one sec, let me relook at the docs

[sharp geyser]

Yea this should be the way to do it

[spark flint]

👌

[sharp geyser]

It will create a connection and then put it in the pool and when a query is done it will just use a pre-exisiting connection in the pool

[spark flint]

ok time to test

[sharp geyser]

At least thats what I remember it doing

[spark flint]

i'm creating a new index

because apparently it uses somethign else when using LIKE

and i'll look at removing limit + offset and just do that myself

[sharp geyser]

Also using LIMIT and OFFSET is extremely costly as it looks through all the rows

[spark flint]

yeah

[sharp geyser]

you can use a cursor paginated system

its much faster

iirc pg also has a way to do that intuitively

[spark flint]

[sharp geyser]

pg-cursor I think it was

[spark flint]

what i've done is

made it cache the query in general

not reliant on skip or limit values

so if paginating it wont make it redo the query

5m cache

[sharp geyser]

Well

Even so using LIMIT and OFFSET will make it read all the rows of the table iirc

[spark flint]

i've rmeoved those

and i'm doing that myself

[sharp geyser]

noice

[spark flint]

skip and limit are always present

and default to 0 and 100

[sharp geyser]

fair

if it works doing it yourself go for it

if not pg-cursor is always an option

[spark flint]

love when nano takes ages to write data

something is inserted to pg every like 0.01s

[earnest phoenix]

100 inserts a second? Jeez.

Now I'm curious what you're doing w/your queries, lmao.

[sharp geyser]

bun runs a lot of stuff that is popular

I wouldn't be surprised

[spark flint]

its domain data

[sharp geyser]

wth

[spark flint]

basically indexing data about sites resolving to IPs / hostnames

[sharp geyser]

Oh nvm

I forgot you run that phish thing

[spark flint]

yeah its for prevention

but it also allows searching for domains based on queries

aka every new incoming domain gets index

and therefore can be searched

[sharp geyser]

Yknow people can't scam on the web if you buy every possible domain name

[spark flint]

lmfao

[sharp geyser]

google.com is fixing to be mine

[earnest phoenix]

https://www.businessinsider.com/this-guy-bought-googlecom-from-google-for-one-minute-2015-9

Closer to reality than you think. Sorta.

[green kestrel]

lol

imagine if they can't revoke the sale, because they can't access their systems because the domain was sold

like when Facebook went down and they couldn't get in their building

[radiant kraken]

but you said that discord is always limiting

[dusky idol]

Anyone here who's good at image manipulation python? Pillow/easypillow library? I'm in need of some assistance, been stuck since 24 hours now

[sharp geyser]

It is but when I don’t have anyone to make 2D or 3D stuff then what else am I going to do

I can make graphical games all I want but it’ll just be a shell

[lament rock]

Unity is fun

[green kestrel]

this game would not be possible 2 years ago in discord

at least not nicely

i'd hve had to use reactions and stuff

[lament rock]

idlerpg existed for a long time

[green kestrel]

and check that the person reacting owns the message etc

and everyone would see everyone elses gameplay

[green kestrel]

this isnt idlerpg

[lament rock]

ik

[green kestrel]

idlerpg is boring, you just gain xp by... idling

and clicking

its cookie clicker

[lament rock]

Well. Idle games can be quite fun

[green kestrel]

the game im making is the opposite of an idle game, like trivia you have to actually engage with it

[lament rock]

Even if this wasn't Discord, sounds like a "totally fun and simple" adventure

[green kestrel]

whats that?

[lament rock]

I do wish you good luck on that is what I'm trying to get across

its been a long time since Ive seen a well made game on Discord

[green kestrel]

porting this to discord will be challenging still

the old code for the game is in such a mess

and it was web based

[lament rock]

js?

the original game that is

[green kestrel]

this is how it used to look.... and no it was C++

i was crazy enough to make a game in C++ that ran as CGI programs in 2001

[sharp geyser]

is that windows xp

[green kestrel]

back then it had 1500 active players

windows ME

[lament rock]

May god have mercy on your soul

[green kestrel]

so all that stuff you see there, i gotta port to discord

including the chat box!

[lament rock]

thats

I see

[sharp geyser]

Good luck with that

Doing a cross server "chat box" will be a nightmare if you manage not to spam the api

[green kestrel]

i'll just rate limit it my end

[lament rock]

Live stream it!

[green kestrel]

lol

[sharp geyser]

the best you can probably do is route all messages in a certain channel into a server "chat box" channel

[lament rock]

a twitch embed could be an option tbh

[green kestrel]

generally, in the old version of the game certain areas were busy all the time, and other areas youd be lucky to find other people

they all would congregate around cities

[sharp geyser]

idk anyone who would play a discord bot game and have a twitch stream open at the same time to play said game

[lament rock]

The video in the embed would show the chat

people can still chat through Discord

[sharp geyser]

too much work for simple minded people

[lament rock]

Its an easy solution for dealing with rate limits

[green kestrel]

no autoplay and slow internet for users makes homer go mm-mmm

[sharp geyser]

You could always just use websockets and post them to a webpage

[lament rock]

I guess yeah

[green kestrel]

i was actually thinking of having links in the content that caused the bot to edit the message, so i could have realtime interactivity with the content, BUT it would have to spawn a browser window and then youd have to close it and tab back to discord

also... editing ephemerals is very very relaxed rate limit

which is nice

and all interaction is caused by users clicking buttons and modals, which means discord rate limit it client-side for the user, and we can reply as fast as we like

[eternal osprey]

does this server allow/help with scraping related questions?

[solemn latch]

as long as you're not breaking the sites tos or rules, and if you're unsure you get permission I dont see an issue with it.

[eternal osprey]

alright thanks !

In that case, i am trying to scrape the first article from this site but it's a total mess. Axios and cheerios don't seem to be able to select the first article no matter what i do
https://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/latest

where the 'class="story-block story-block--sb06" are the divs containing the articles

   $(".stream__list .story-block--sb06").each((index, element) => {
      console.log("test");
      const category = $(element).find(".story-block__category").text().trim();
      const heading = $(element).find(".story-block__heading a").text().trim();
      const articleLink = $(element)
        .find(".story-block__heading a")
        .attr("href");
      const image = $(element).find(".story-block__image img").attr("data-src");
      const author = $(element)
        .find(".story-block__byline")
        .text()
        .trim()
        .replace("By", "")
        .trim();
    });```
seems to not even print test, hence doesn't return any elements

[lament rock]

You may want to check what your code is receiving since some sites actually send different HTML depending on user agent or lack there of

An easy way to do this is just fetching the website then res.text().then(console.log) and then run that through an HTML prettifier if it's condensed

[wheat mesa]

Just use twitch chat instead to control the game

Better yet yeah just use an embed

[crystal wigeon]

[flat copper]

hello, is there any way to stop next js routing,
like the main page is http://localhost:3000
and i want the users to send their id like
http://localhost:3000/id
but it just keep rendering id page which does not even exists

[lyric mountain]

Are u using :id?

Instead of literally id

[flat copper]

currently:
the main page is http://localhost:3000,

what i want to do is, if someone goes to link: http://localhost:3000/dream,
it renders main page and log the id (dream).

im new to next js, 🙂

[digital swan]

I’ve never used nextjs but surely you could make an id route, do whatever processing then redirect to the home page? If that’s what you’re asking

[surreal sage]

'kay so im learning golang

and the tour says

Inside a function, the := short assignment statement can be used in place of a var declaration with implicit type.

I don't get the implicit type

English isn't my mothertoung either

Is it like, choosing the type automatically?

[slender wagon]

Is using your own vps as a proxy ok?

[surreal sage]

i dont see why it wouldnt be

okyes

[surreal sage]

this

[flat copper]

ohh

[queen needle]

If you create a page called [id].ts you could get it using next.js url functions, then use the next.js router to redirect to home

[lament rock]

The term implicit means implied or that it can be guessed based off context, so yes.

explicit would mean you'd have to manually declare the type

[hushed patrol]

How can i show vote and guilds count in a widget of top.gg in a embed?

[wheat mesa]

Yes basically, it is used so that you don’t have to specify the type of a variable when assigning to it immediately

Imo the way go does it is scuffed but still

[surreal sage]

first go project done i guess

[eternal osprey]

in html/js is there no enumeration for button/input actions?\

[lyric mountain]

Nope

Web js is quite barebones

[surreal sage]

alright mate

golang

😭.

[wheat mesa]

Probably not using it correctly

Maybe the function returns a status string and a status code

[flat copper]

okay, ill try this

[digital swan]

im having the weirdest issue with breejs. on my production server (vultr) everything works fine no issue

but on a test server (digitalocean) im running the same code just different database and bot, and randomly whenever a certain bree job ends, the main process is exited without any error or message.
bree is ran from main process while using discord-hybrid-sharding for clustering

bree scheduler: https://github.com/tekoh/nypsi/blob/main/src/scheduled/scheduler.ts
the job that causes it to exit: https://github.com/tekoh/nypsi/blob/main/src/scheduled/jobs/votereminders.ts

this happens randomly after a seemingly random amount of hours of the bot being online

[lament rock]

Is that job actuallly being run in a worker_thread? If so, add lots of logging. Add a process exit handler, add an uncaughtException handler. unhandledRejection, etc

override process.exit to log where it came from (error stack) and then call the original process.exit

[surreal sage]

what's the api called

where you join a server

a bot tracks your presence

and you can api fetch/ws it

[pale vessel]

https://github.com/Phineas/lanyard

[surreal sage]

yess ty

[hushed patrol]

any code or ways to make a expressjs error handler?

[digital swan]

yeah ive done lots of logging to check, done the handlers etc and just get nothing. worst part is that it takes between an hour to a day to test a change so its annoying af. im probably just gonna change to a manual solution instead of bree

[lament rock]

I write my own software for this exact reason.

Very limited 3rd party tools

anyone know of random animal image apis? (not dogs or cats)

[quartz kindle]

there was one for pigs

i also recall something for opossums

[pale vessel]

maybe there will be more images/endpoints added in the future

[pastel hazel]

hello

i'm new

i needed someone to make a bot for me

where do i find that?

[deft wolf]

Try Fiverr

Anywhere but here

[pastel hazel]

it's super simple

its like: its asks the code an and image and sends the messgae

[digital swan]

if its super simple surely you could do it yourself for free within a day

[pastel hazel]

even not knowing nothing about programing?

[deft wolf]

There are so many materials on the Internet about writing bots for Discord that it's just a matter of whether someone wants to or not

[digital swan]

^

if you paid good attention to a maybe 30-40 minute youtube tutorial you could do it

[pastel hazel]

ook, thx guys

bye

[thick path]

Hello, I want to know the IDs of the people who voted and commented on my bot. How can I do it?

[quartz kindle]

for votes there is the top.gg api

i dont think there is an api to get comments tho

[lime bear]

Huh

[eternal osprey]

Is there a way to detect who invited a user?

[wheat mesa]

Afaik there is not a "definite" way to tell for all situations, but iirc you can find who created an invite that was used to join a server

In fact I don't think there's a way to tell who joined using what invite, just that an invite has a certain amount of uses

[deft wolf]

You can compare invite uses before someone joined and after

[prime horizon]

I can make a bot for you, what do you offer?

[pale vessel]

maybe emotional support?

[candid onyx]

after I pay for funds in auction how long until the funds show up?

[hidden gorge]

why am i getting a 401 when trying to deploy a new command

[warm surge]

You fucked up

[hidden gorge]

how?

[wheat mesa]

Did you use your token correctly

[pale vessel]

and make sure it's the actual bot ID

[solemn latch]

The warning at the top could be causing unexpected issues too. I doubt it, but its worth looking into fixing that.

[wheat mesa]

That seems unlikely, if that was the issue it would probably send back something about the format being incorrect rather than a 401

[lament rock]

Gotta make sure the Authorization header is the token that corresponds with the application ID and that the header is present

[sharp geyser]

I mean if they are using discord.js it doesn't matter it automatically puts it in the header for em

its likely the bot they are trying to post to doesn't match the token being used like flaze said

[pure pier]

Can anyone tell me how to use bots and how do I upgrade my self in discord

[deft wolf]

How do you upgrade yourself?

[pure pier]

Means sending gif in discord server

Upgrading profile

[deft wolf]

You need to buy discord nitro

For something like 10$ per month

[pure pier]

Any other way

[deft wolf]

Nope

[green kestrel]

lol my newest bot shows on invites as being created September 2019

because I generated the app id so long ago for it and never got around to making the bot

[peak drum]

Nice lol

[arctic coyote]

wait! InspIRCd is also by you?? Did use it for a while when hosting my IRC server and will probably use it again (to allow people who don't have discord to also communicate)

Man you are doing great stuff! Keep it up! I'm also very pleased by D++! The library i used before discontinued the maintainance and also wasn't nearly as polished!

Thanks a lot for providing these great tools for us! 💯
Really appreciated!

[green kestrel]

yup thats me, and before that, WinBot, and irc defender, and a bunch of other things and a bunch of modules for ircservices 🙂

I really appreciate the kind words 🙂

also made the inspircd module for anope and one for atheme

speaking of... inspircd websocket code in m_websocket is very similar to dpp websocket code for obvious reasons, could probably use the two to make a discord to irc bridge module or something

but I don't have time to do that rn

[arctic coyote]

me probably neither 🤔 but sounds like a very interesting idea. Very low overhead bridge. in the past i did use matterbridge. Which also worked well, but saving some resources on the server is always nice ^^. Also matterbridge offers too many features that I don't need. So it feels overkill.

Anyways, glad I found you and your tools. Really nice work!

[nova spindle]

hi

[jaunty basalt]

Hi

[patent onyx]

hey I have a question

I just got my bot verified and I set up a SKU to have payments with discord for my bot

is there any way to pull the information whens omone signs up with their discordID or something so that way I can automate making them a premium member?

[tulip ledge]

Havent used skus yet but am planning to, is there no property on discord user or something that sais it’s premium? Then you don’t have to update it in your database and can just check that

[patent onyx]

to be honest, Im kind of new to discord bot development, and the way I've been handling premium is through manually adding their ID to a json file and then using that to check if they are a premium member

[tulip ledge]

I found this on djs https://discord.js.org/docs/packages/discord.js/14.14.1/RoleSubscriptionData:Interface#roleSubscriptionListingId

[tulip ledge]

^^^

Thats also quite stupid

[patent onyx]

hahaha it has been quite dumb

damn tahts for djs, i do discord.py

[tulip ledge]

Ah then look in their docs

[patent onyx]

yea i will have to do that 😭

[solemn latch]

did you track the event down yet?

I assume you want the event

[patent onyx]

what event

[solemn latch]

the event for when someone uses discord monitization.

[solemn latch]

this

[patent onyx]

idk how to track that

i do it manually for now 😭

[solemn latch]

so, I found this https://docs.discord4py.dev/en/developer/Interactions/data-models.html#discord.BaseInteraction.entitlements

but this seems to be a custom version of discord.py

It doesnt seem discord.py provides anything for discords monetization yet.

[patent onyx]

ah ok, thank you

i might contact their support itself or do some more research

[solemn latch]

Looks like entitlements(discord developers term for monetization) may be in discord.py, I just was having trouble finding it.

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Entitlement

Looks like interactions contain the entitlements of each event. So for example if a user runs a command and they are subscribed it should be provided. If the guild has the entitlement it should also be in the list.

and here is the event itself https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html?highlight=entitlement#entitlements

that should be everything you need @patent onyx

[patent onyx]

thank you @solemn latch

[viscid furnace]

Hello, I use Pycord but the topggpy is only compatible with discord.py how can I do that I can use pycord

[drowsy lark]

Hello

[craggy pine]

It's an API wrapper so if it's not compatible with the version you're using, you could always just interact with the API naturally without a wrapper. Now, I'm not a PY dev, so I can't help with that.

[sharp geyser]

Its not only compatable with that one specific python lib, that would be ludicrous

It is just the most commonly used so its displayed in the docs

[sharp geyser]

Just put your pycord client instance where they put the discord.py one

and it should work

[radiant kraken]

the top.gg Python API wrapper works with multiple libraries outside of Discord.py, see https://github.com/top-gg/python-sdk/tree/master/examples

forcing users that don't use Discord.py to use the raw API itself is a terrible design decision anyway

[main trench]

Hello

[craggy pine]

🤷‍♀️ I wasn't aware but made a point that I'm not a PY dev. But good to know 😛

[lament rock]

There's something to be said about learning how to use raw APIs is way more beneficial than being locked to specific wrappers

[radiant kraken]

i mean yeah but it doesnt mean that you have to constantly deep dive into raw APIs whenever a wrapper is available, especially when the wrapper also does things besides just requesting to the API (e.g autoposting)

APIs can also change over time, and that should be left to the API wrapper developers

[lament rock]

Assuming the wrapper is maintained

[radiant kraken]

i'm sure most are maintained

[lament rock]

This isn't just about the top.gg api. This is about any api wrapper

The top.gg js wrapper doesn't support the lib I maintain, so like :(

[radiant kraken]

what

[lament rock]

what?

[lyric mountain]

Topgg api is simple enough to use it raw

[odd oracle]

hi, I would like to implement the music commands in my bot, for the moment only /play and /stop, I want the songs to be either from YouTube or Spotify or both, all of this in Python, could anyone help me?

[vivid fulcrum]

neither are technically legal to do. spotify doesn't offer streaming as an API and they'll probably just ban your account if you stream to other sources, youtube is more casual with it though.

consider using youtube-dl
https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md#embedding-youtube-dl

if you really need to add support for spotify links, you can gather metadata from the spotify track, search for the track name on youtube and fetch it from youtube

but i'd suggest trying to implement the youtube side first, and then focusing on the spotify part

[lament rock]

spotify html meta tags includes a preview mp3 link (not the full song)

[lyric mountain]

I mean, YouTube will be fine with it until they notice you exist

[craggy pine]

Isn't then the point when verification happens?

[pallid obsidian]

Bug on the "analytics" page
Disabling width "fixes" this bug

[lyric mountain]

I believe discord itself will refuse to verify, but YouTube will only take action if the bot becomes popular enough

Hey, i've setup a warning system but im kind of confused on one idea. see bots like dyno have it setup so you can determine the punishments given for reaching a thersehold by editing it on their dashboard but for a bot like mine which has no dashboard how can i get admins to set a punishment for a thersehold? what do you guys think would be a good idea for something like this on a command only scale with no web based dashboard?

[deft wolf]

Everything you can do using a dashboard can also be done using a command, the only difference is that the dashboard is simply easier and more accessible to use

At the very end, you still have to make a request to the API that will do what it is supposed to do, just like you would use a regular command in the bot

[pseudo grotto]

do you have a web based dashboard?

[pseudo grotto]

im just trying to figure out the most convienent and easy way for users to set a threshold as a command

my setup command is already cluttered with 13 options

[deft wolf]

That's... probably too many options for the average user

It's probably better to use buttons or select menus for such a number of options

[deft wolf]

Nope, I was making a dashboard but I decided that it was too much work for a bot that I wouldn't earn even a penny from and the same thing can be set using commands

[pseudo grotto]

well they are all optional but like the reason why i like options are because its easier to like pick channels and roles 😄

[lament rock]

Why does it take 2 seconds what

[surreal sage]

im doing stuff in nextjs

and this hmr is just breaking for some reason

im making changes

server recompiles

but client changes nothing

and i have to restart the dev server to see the changes

[wheat mesa]

Is there a way to host a GitHub pages without it being open source?

Or for that matter is there any static site host that’s free and easy to work with

[digital swan]

i think with github pro you can do a private repo

[wheat mesa]

Sounds good

To that matter is there a way to have a login (just with a standard username and password, I don’t need to update it dynamically or anything, this is an admin board) that doesn’t require a backend API?

[vivid fulcrum]

nope

[wheat mesa]

Or is there a service that makes that easy or anything

[vivid fulcrum]

a service maybe

[wheat mesa]

Since I’d rather not be showing the public where I work and have this be employee only access lol

[vivid fulcrum]

maybe 0auth suits your case

auth0*

[wheat mesa]

Yeah maybe but that’s a lot of work to set up in the middle of a shift, this is meant to be like a virtual recipe book for my job

OAuth is a hassle, I’d rather just have like a 8 digit code they enter

[vivid fulcrum]

yeah, github pages aren't meant to host something like that so you'll have to do weird solutions either way

[wheat mesa]

I’ll have to figure it out later I suppose

[vivid fulcrum]

I’d rather just have like a 8 digit code they enter
OTP seems to suit perfectly, but i have no idea which provider to recommend

[wheat mesa]

I suppose I could host it on some junk throwaway account so I don’t have to worry about anonymity

Only issue being that I probably don’t want to give away the recipes we use to random people in case they found it somehow

[vivid fulcrum]

what kind of content are you hosting

[wheat mesa]

Maybe I’ll just end up building an API, I really have no problem writing the code for it, I just have a feeling hosting everything is gonna be a rabbit hole

It’s meant to be like an admin panel for my workplace to help with training new employees, stuff like notes about closing, opening, how to make certain items, etc

[vivid fulcrum]

does it only host documentation then

[wheat mesa]

Pretty much, there will be no dynamically loaded content or html or anything

But I also don’t want anyone to just find that page and look at all of our notes publicly yknow

Which means I’m probably going to need an API

[vivid fulcrum]

https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence

this is what you're looking for

[wheat mesa]

Ah this is good

Thank you

I’ll look into how to set this up later

Is this a free service?

[vivid fulcrum]

for up to 10 users

[wheat mesa]

Perfect

We only have about 5 people that need it

[eternal osprey]

hey guys

i recently implemented a dijkstra algorithm in c++ to solve a distance based problem

however, my code seems to have a particularly high runtime (namely 1.137 which is deemed to be on the high side). Is there any way that i could dm someone my code for some help and tipes regarding the runtime complexity?

[harsh nova]

While I'm probably not smart enough to be of any help I'd still love to see your implementation

[eternal osprey]

awesome! I will send you a message 🙂

[green kestrel]

just finished cooking up some awesome in C++ actually

i wanted to pass state in components but i didnt want the user interfering with the state

the state is a great place to stash transient stuff under the custom_id field, but it means that youre leaving it to being tampered with... you would expect the user cant, via the standard discord client. but they can, either via selfbots, modded clients, or developer tools or postman.

so i cooked up this: https://github.com/brainboxdotcc/ssod/blob/main/include/ssod/aes.h

basically, you can do like ```cpp
component.set_id(security::encrypt("some critical state info"))

then use security::decrypt() to decrypt the received ID

it uses zlib to compress the string so we get more out of the 100 char limit, then AES256 to encrypt it and then wraps it with base64 (because the field is 7 bit ascii only)

[radiant kraken]

your ssod project looks pretty good! good job on it

it's nice to see a game concept with such a long history breathed back into life in the form of a discord bot

the game itself is older than 99% of people here

[green kestrel]

lol yeah it'll be 30 in may, that makes me feel old

im not looking forward to porting the website to laravel

tbh might not need to, could just update the wordpress content

for now anyway, so I can launch

[slender wagon]

Do you guys use your own smtp server usually or a third party?

[green kestrel]

I use my own

I'm very much in the minority these days

however I only use my own for receiving, I use mailgun for sending

[green kestrel]

started doing up the site now!

https://ssod.org

realised I have no need for a dashboard in this game, this makes things a ton easier

[eternal osprey]

hey, i was bored so i started to practice some of my algorithm skills. I created a way to assign colors to each single vertex, where adjacent vertices have different colors. I just thought that bfs would be fine, as we are just interest in A path, not necessarily the most optimal or anything:

    
    public static int edges;

    public static enum state {
        UNDISCOVERED, DISCOVERED
    };

    public static enum colors {
        BLACK, RED, BLUE
    }
//graph created here -> excluded cuz it's not that special.
    public static void BFS(int[][] graph, int source) {
        state[] explored = new state[graph.length];
        int[] predecessor = new int[graph.length];
        Queue<Integer> frontier = new LinkedList<>();
        colors[] coloring = new colors[graph.length];
        coloring[source] = colors.RED;
        for (int i = source + 1; i < graph.length; i++) {
            explored[i] = state.UNDISCOVERED;
            predecessor[i] = -1;
        }
        explored[source] = state.DISCOVERED;
        predecessor[source] = -1;
        frontier.add(source);

        while (!frontier.isEmpty()) {
            int CurrentElement = frontier.remove();
            for (int i = 0; i < graph.length; i++) {
                if (graph[CurrentElement][i] != 0 && coloring[CurrentElement] != coloring[i]
                        && explored[i] != state.DISCOVERED) {
                    predecessor[i] = CurrentElement;
                    explored[i] = state.DISCOVERED;
                    frontier.add(i);
                    if (coloring[CurrentElement] == colors.RED) {
                        coloring[i] = colors.BLUE;
                    } else {
                        coloring[i] = colors.RED;
                    }

                }
            }
        }
        System.out.println("\nMatches and Chosen Colors:");
        for (int i = 0; i < edges; i++) {
            System.out.println("Vertex " + i + " Color: " + coloring[i]);
        }
    }

what wpuld you guys think of the algo, it's really simply but maybe there are faster and other ways to do this?

i also maintained a state of color for each single path. In reality this was not needed, and we could also have a for loop in the end, and for each node, we will set a different color than its predecessor but this above seemed easier

[stark abyss]

how about this

or this

i think last one look the best

[wheat mesa]

this one looks the best of all of them

I feel like the smaller buttons make the app look less clean

They look stubby

[pale vessel]

it might be good to have a max width of the first one, because you don't want it to look too wide on a bigger device

but maybe that should just be applied to the modal itself

[stark abyss]

alright thanks guys appreciate the feedback

[limpid compass]

Hello,

I'm looking for a bot that can monitor various Twitter pages based on keywords. For example, whenever a Twitter page in my watchlist posts a tweet related to the keyword "music," it will automatically be posted on my discord channel. Tweets that don't contain the keyword should not be posted. Is there a bot here that can do that?

Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you.

[deft wolf]

I doubt it, I haven't seen any bot that would offer something so personalized

Besides, the Twitter API is something that either costs money or is not very easy to obtain

At least I didn't manage to get it

[limpid compass]

I just tried searching for the keyword on google "bot discord notification tweet by keyword". There are a few returns that I'm looking into. It looks like they do however I haven't tried them yet.

[summer torrent]

I would have added this feature to my bot if the Twitter API hadn't gone to a paid version

https://github.com/tweetcord/bot

[north cairn]

i am trying to shift from replit to vsc... i am getting some erros,can someone help?

module.exports = client;

["command","events", "slashcommands"].forEach((handler)=>{ 
 require(`./handlers/${handler}`)(client); 
 });```

so this works fine in replit but in vsc it says that : require(...) is not a fucntion

[digital swan]

whatever youre importing isnt directly a function

probably a difference in nodejs versions

[lament rock]

Is your package.json "type" set to "module"? ESM doesn't have a global.require unless you use createRequire. Only the dynamic import statement can be used

[wheat mesa]

I have a feeling that they just straight up copy pasted files

[north cairn]

yes ig,how to install node js version

[north cairn]

um yeah

[digital swan]

Well if it runs you’ve got nodejs installed

[north cairn]

i have but wrong one

how to install like older versions

[lament rock]

lol you dont wanna go back to pre v14 just for only commonjs

[loud wind]

is confesion bots allowed in discord (for enterainment)

[lament rock]

likely not if you're storing messages

[loud wind]

i was gonna make for private usage but i wasnt sure is it allowed, I wont save the content and user data, I would only save the data of "did user agreed to TOS"

[digital swan]

If it’s obvious that the message is gonna be stored and you’re able to have them deleted surely it would be fine

[loud wind]

well this is the mechanism: user sends message with command --> sent to function which sends the message with embed

thats all

[digital swan]

Oh so it literally just repeats what the user says and doesn’t store anything?

[loud wind]

yea but i gonna filter the ads & NSFW Content

the embed will be like
title: A confession sent by a anonymous person
<his confession>

but as i mentioned earlier, its only for private usage (I have a small server filled with my real life friends)

[digital swan]

Yeah that’s obviously gonna be fine

hello, im using tailwind css with next to create a app but its classes are not working in browser

next app

[slender wagon]

question...
I am working with an app where frontend is made with nextjs and backend with express.
The issue is i am setting some cookes (accesstoken and refreshtoken) for some reason they work fine on localhost but on production they don't

export const sendAccessToken = (res: Response, token: string) => {
  res.cookie('accessToken', token, { httpOnly: false, sameSite: 'none', secure: true });
};

export const sendRefreshToken = (res: Response, token: string) => {
  res.cookie('refreshToken', token, { httpOnly: false, sameSite: 'none', secure: true });
};

removed the http only atribute cuz testing

[solemn latch]

Are you sure you're editing the right thing? Check your layout.tsx or layout.jsx file and see if that's where you set the background.

[solemn latch]

Interesting to use express for the backend. Nextjs has a pretty decent system for a backend.

[solemn latch]

actually, check your globals.css

Background colors if you use the default nextjs boilerplate code uses variables for background colors.

[earnest phoenix]

why I dont receive event payload when I send a message in a threadchannel

[pale vessel]

your bot needs to join the thread

[earnest phoenix]

I was using the default gateway version

I fixed it using the v10

[sharp geyser]

So I have a class method that returns aspecific type of Promise<Array<User>> and then I have a cache prop that is just a Map<User>, thing is if I do this.cache.entries() it returns an IterableIterator<User> which is not what I want

Oh wait

I can use Array.from

forgor

[round cove]

I've never seen how but how can I get a bot application to apply for RPC access?

[radiant kraken]

or use [...array]

[sharp geyser]

Yea I could

But why not use Array.from

[radiant kraken]

cuz idk it's cleaner ig

[green kestrel]

im surprised that js doesnt have Array.kinda

may or may not be sorta arraylike

[green kestrel]

you cant, rpc isnt for bots its for games on desktop

the game sdk uses it

[sharp geyser]

Clearner sure, but I don't need the keys I just need the values, I mispoke when I said I used .entries()

[earnest phoenix]

I got a notification and i thought you pinged me buddy

[sharp geyser]

nope

Btw I’ll continue working by web bye

[tall shuttle]

I am writing a Discord bot. The bot works and does not give any errors, but it does not load the commands. What do you think is the problem? I would be glad if you could help me.

[deft wolf]

It depends on the type of these commands

Slash commands must be registered first

[radiant kraken]

smh

[green kestrel]

what language even? what does the code look like? what type of commands? slash commands? message commands?

[tall shuttle]

discord.js prefix /

If you want, I can post the code from Google docs.

[wheat mesa]

You should just post it in a pastebin

Or a codeblock if it’s small enough

[green kestrel]

or share the github

you ARE using version control, right?

But with what

We have no context

yeah what is the issue?

[wheat mesa]

if they need help with loading commands in djs, the answer is no

(No offense to them, just how it is)

[lament rock]

All Objects are ArrayLike to an extent, just you have to choose to iterate over the keys, the values or both as an IterableIterator<[K, V]>

[round cove]

Right, but ADvaith's browser extension which reports a video to RPC clearly isn't a game. So there's SOMEHOW a way to do it.

[solemn latch]

ah, I thought you meant a bot having its own rpc.

What do you use to program? I forget 👀

assuming you just want to program your own rpc and not use an off the shelf solution.

[round cove]

I use TS.

Got a solution? 👁️

[spark flint]

you can see the extension source code

which shows how it works

[round cove]

You still need a Discord application with the correct perms to change the users activity status lol.

[spark flint]

ah, didn't catch that part

wait

ah nvm, read the error message discord gives

idk why discord doesn't show scope errors on the auth page instead of showing it as a valid scope

god knows how he got intents (he does know staff tbf) but yeah you're right

[round cove]

right? Lol

[vivid fulcrum]

oauth is garbage everywhere

no matter what service provider you use, chances are their oauth implementation is janky xd

https://www.nango.dev/blog/why-is-oauth-still-hard

[spark flint]

nah how did he get it

👁️

[round cove]

To be fair, Advaith is like a Discord favorite I feel. I'm not surprised if they gave him some special perms. But their app is also a year old, it might be grandfathered activity perms?

[spark flint]

well looking at past commits/issues its been like this since at least 2019

but yeah special perms would be no suprise

[round cove]

Since 2019? Jeez lol.

[spark flint]

https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/issues/1178

[round cove]

Classic truly

[solemn latch]

so its not really rpc is it?

[round cove]

It is.

It gets activities.write perm, it makes a call to the @me endpoint and changes your activity.

[vivid fulcrum]

it isn't rpc

[round cove]

Hmm?

[vivid fulcrum]

rpc is has been long dead for now and implements a different set of protocols

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/rpc

[round cove]

For now, RPC is in a private beta. We are not currently accepting any new developers into the program at this time.

[vivid fulcrum]

that's been there for years

@me endpoints are just oauth endpoints

[round cove]

What do you think it is then and how does it use a RPC scoped perm

[vivid fulcrum]

it's just an oauth scope that has a whitelist

[round cove]

Alright then how do you get whitelisted :))

[vivid fulcrum]

it's a closed beta i guess, so you don't 🤷‍♂️

[round cove]

What's a closed beta?

[vivid fulcrum]

you might find more luck in the discord developers server but a quick search just led me to this:

[round cove]

Classic.

[solemn latch]

We're just being particular about what the RPC protocol is.
this activity api doesnt use RPC

[round cove]

My bad. I'm equating RPC = Rich Presence

I didn't know RPC was an actual protocol lol.

[solemn latch]

it might not be a protocol by definition, I dont remember what it even really is.

all I really know is that rpc is typically between two processes on a computer.

Like a game to the discord client

Either way, hopefully this becomes public soon

[round cove]

Right.

The dev discord and github comments all seem conflicting just for Advaith to get the perm somehow lol.

Who knows anymore.

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[proven lantern]

if i transfer "app to team" will that reset my public key or my bot secret token?

[pale vessel]

no, it won't

[eternal osprey]

i recently got that in one of my security courses. It's basically a connection between client (caller) and server (callee). The callee basically awaits for requests, and once the caller does so (with the required security params etc) it will authenticate the process and start the procedure that the server must perform given the params of the caller. The caller process then basically gets on hold and awaits a reply of the callee, and once it's done executing it sends it to the caller. It will authenticate the origin of the reply again and then resumes where it left off before the call was made.

it reminds me of ssh, but now instead of just authenticating and prompting the user the ssh access, it actually executes some process for you

[tulip ledge]

Does discordjs already have any features to detect if a user is a premium subscriber of your bot?

[solemn latch]

iirc yes

https://discord.js.org/docs/packages/discord.js/main/Entitlement:Class

[lament rock]

It's cool that I don't have to update my lib unless there are major API changes

[pallid obsidian]

When I try to add ## in front of text or even try to use the <h2> tag, the text still remains the same?

[pallid obsidian]

Nevermind figured it out. It just doesn't show in the preview.

[sterile lantern]

anyone know why this is happening?

my dockerfile used to work a couple of months ago and now im putting it on a pi but it doesnt deloy

[fathom kiln]

try redirecting the output to a file and reading it

[sterile lantern]

fixed it, was a old version of node

[hidden gorge]

any reason it is only showing 1 user?

client.user.setPresence({
        activities: [{ name: `${client.guilds.cache.size} Guilds | ${client.users.cache.size} Users`, type: ActivityType.Watching }],
        status: 'idle',
      });
});

[spark flint]

Because only one user is cached

[warm surge]

Use this

client.guilds.cache.reduce((acc, guild) => acc + guild.memberCount, 0).toLocaleString()

@hidden gorge

[lament rock]

Caching is fun.

[hidden gorge]

where do i put this webster 😭

[warm surge]

Users part

[hidden gorge]

fixed

i found that out

[wheat mesa]

keep in mind this does not work if your guilds are not cached

It’s been a long time since I’ve done anything with the DAPI though so I’m not sure if guilds are guaranteed to be cached or not by default

[warm surge]

they should by default

[deft wolf]

Probably yes, guilds are guaranteed but users/channels need to be fetched

That's why I don't know how many users my bot has since its creation because it's too much work to check it

any idea?

[deft wolf]

But this is probably not the whole error

There should be an exception after the colon i guess

I would like to modify the code so that a 'swipe' occurs when I request, for example, from level 0 to 20. It automatically swipes from stone to iron in the example. Currently, it only provides the stone.

[surreal sage]

what am i doing wrong

[gray snow]

Show whole thing

[surreal sage]

my / imports

can Promise.resolve make the bundle size so big?

[vivid fulcrum]

no

your bundle size depends on how many packages you're using

[surreal sage]

yeah

[vivid fulcrum]

react bundle sizes will always be big, even if minified

but 500kb seems a bit much

[surreal sage]

oh

[vivid fulcrum]

it might be because of material ui's icons

[vivid fulcrum]

is that a dependency?

[surreal sage]

yeah.

[vivid fulcrum]

you should find an alternative, that package has been abandoned

also see https://www.npmjs.com/package/zxcvbn#browserify--webpack

explains why the bundle size is so big

[surreal sage]

dictionaries yea

https://github.com/zxcvbn-ts/zxcvbn

[vivid fulcrum]

that seems to work

[vivid fulcrum]

better than the previous package, but yeah the dictionaries are the major thing taking up space

[surreal sage]

well the 'passwords' im generating dont have any words, so I don't think i will be needing them

[vivid fulcrum]

they have a short snippet for bundlers, you might get away by just bundling the common dictionary then
https://zxcvbn-ts.github.io/zxcvbn/guide/getting-started/#bundler-like-webpack

[surreal sage]

yeah

[vivid fulcrum]

if the final bundle size still is too large, i'd suggest either finding a more lightweight package or moving the password related logic onto a server (if you already have one)

[surreal sage]

how secure

also nextjs supports api endpoints without a custom server like express

136 kb not bad

[vivid fulcrum]

good enough

[wicked pivot]

@wheat mesa @pale vessel i haven't touched upon discord bots in over 2 years, so is this a good Discord Bot event handler for my autoposter?

• does guildCreate come first before ready? or does guildCreate only gets fired whenever the bot gets added to a new server
• where does the guild intent come into effect here?

[wheat mesa]

guildCreate only fires when the bot gets added to a new server

As for guild intent I can’t remember since it’s been so long

[deft wolf]

The Guilds intent populates and maintains the guilds, channels and guild.roles caches, plus thread-related events.
If this intent is not enabled, data for interactions and messages will include only the guild and channel id, and will not resolve to the full class.

From discord.js guide

• you need it to receive any messages

[radiant kraken]

so it doesn't get fired once the bot starts?

[radiant kraken]

is the guilds array in READY event empty if the guild intent is disabled

[deft wolf]

So yea, it's empty

Strange, it's empty in both cases

[lament rock]

for raw ws, the ready event happens first and tells you how many guilds the bot is in and then GUILD_CREATE for each guild the bot is in is sent. djs sends the ready event once all of the guilds are populated or a timeout is reached to account for server issues or network instability.

Largly guild create is tied to the guilds intent and maybe some events require it for cache. I had issues where messages had to be cached for reaction add and remove. This was in v12 and I never tried the partial events

rather the raw ready event has an Array of guild IDs this shard will cover

[radiant kraken]

welp sounds like my caching is good enough

[deft wolf]

But why are you connecting to database inside command

You can do this just once in index.js file

[hidden gorge]

it worked earlier..

oh shit webster

[worn flume]

if you didn't changed anything its prob api error

[warm surge]

Ive it as client.db = { guilds: server, etc }

[worn flume]

check the mongodb api's to make sure its running

[hidden gorge]

was getting this earlier before i changed the DB over to a new one

[deft wolf]

Or you can pass db into client

That's true

[warm surge]

I just said that^

[deft wolf]

Yea, i said that's true

[warm surge]

oh

Im reading everything wrong lmao

[wheat mesa]

I personally prefer to pass my database contexts to functions instead of attaching it to the client, but whatever floats your boat

[hidden gorge]

its not api

[warm surge]

only reason ive had it pass to client because my topgg and botlist.me webhook

[wheat mesa]

your error has nothing to do with this

You called mongoose.connect more than once somewhere, literally like the error says

Ideally you should not have code being run outside of a function in any place except for your index.js file

[hidden gorge]

i searched all files nothing

[wheat mesa]

Change where you connect to your database to index.js instead of in that other file

[hidden gorge]

oh

[wheat mesa]

That way it is guaranteed to only happen once

[wheat mesa]

Well yeah, if you fail to connect to your database then your requests are going to time out

[hidden gorge]

idk why its failing

[wheat mesa]

Check your connection string

[hidden gorge]

it is correct!

client.on(Events.ClientReady, readyClient => {

    mongoose
    .connect("mongodb+srv://RoDB:[e-mail]/", {
      dbName: `test`,
      useNewUrlParser: true,
      useUnifiedTopology: true,
    })
    .then(() => {
      console.log("🟩 Connected to Database.");
    })
    .catch(() => {
      console.log("🟪 Failed Database Connection");
    });

i removed the pass just for this its in the code

[wheat mesa]

You should log the actual error instead of a useless “database connection failed” message

[hidden gorge]

ok one sec

bruh

[wheat mesa]

tbh this is why I dislike languages that allow you to ignore error handling like this

Teaches bad habits

[hidden gorge]

ok data is saving

[hidden gorge]

I've noticed if i get the ESERVFAIL rosearch.frdmhyd.mongodb.net to just restart it a few times...

and then it works

[wheat mesa]

that sounds like a duct tape solution and you should be looking for the root cause of said issue

[spark flint]

I think mongo has had errors

My api stopped working for a few hours and mongo was returning errors

[hidden gorge]

Ok so its not just me?

[deft wolf]

This is why I love selfhosting mongo on my vps instead of using a free database

[warm surge]

give me that shit

I will use it all day logn

long

[surreal sage]

i had no idea this was a thing

[wheat mesa]

Most languages have this sort of thing, it’s quite nice

(Except Java, why the fuck does Java not have this)

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[wheat mesa]

wrong but this is one of those things that makes you wonder if the Java devs are living under a rock

[radiant kraken]

same goes for Rust

or C

C when

CreateWindowA("lol", "lol", WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, NULL, NULL, hinstance, NULL);

[wheat mesa]

Yes but rust does not need this feature

I feel like many aspects of rust is designed in such a way that default parameters don’t need to exist

C is acceptable because it’s 50 years old

Java is not acceptable because it’s not 50 years old and there are many times where this pattern would be useful and avoid redundant code

[surreal sage]

is my eslint stupid?

[radiant kraken]

@wheat mesa @civic scroll i've successfully made my own first rust macro :D

very proud of that jargon lol

[wheat mesa]

fancy

[radiant kraken]

thanks ❤️

wasted 2 hours of my life just to reduce some mundane boilerplate code

[odd nexus]

its saying message embed is not defined?

[surreal sage]

how can i edit ts types so that when i express.js Application.use my middleware, that a new property appears

[sharp geyser]

What

[quartz kindle]

coming up with weird ideas to "pack" data is so much fun

[sharp geyser]

Still waiting for you to pack that astrology api

[radiant kraken]
