shrewd field

lavish mango
just post your question
supple ocean
Im trying to make a $Report command, It should be like: $Report @Roi#4575 spamming and then it sends DM to the owner of the server
Coding language - discord.py rewrite
lime falcon
I know discord.py rewrite a bit
Though I'm not officially a dev so my answers come with a grain of salt :P
You can get the server owner with Guild.owner, and the Member object is a child of messageable
So you can just do Guild.owner.send() to send a PM to them
supple ocean
oh
i found out to send DM to the owner
ik
member.guild.owner.send()
But now I need the message inside the $Report will be sent
Not "test"
lime falcon
If you want to just pull all that the person typed, you take in def report(ctx, *message)
lime falcon
In a function definition, *args means 'take in any number of arguments'
And it gives them to you as a tuple
@commands.command()
async def report(ctx, *message):
message = ' '.join(message)
ctx.guild.owner.send(message)
ahh like varargs?
lime falcon
Yeah
scenic crest
weird cuz in the langs I code in that's either a pointer or a spread operator
lime falcon
Yeah. Python doesn't have explicit pointers, though all lists, dictionaries, and class instances are actually pointer variables
lime falcon
Yeah
Learning some of this stuff was a pain, when you're not explicitly taught it. Especially as it relates to imports.
scenic crest
I'm struggling so much with pointers
Java and Kotlin did it for me
now Go's like
here have these pointers and stuff, enjoy!
lime falcon
import lib
from lib import func_a
assert lib.func_a != func_a
👀
lime falcon
import lib creates an import object for lib. From lib import function copies that function into your __main__ area.
So thus, they're two different copies of the same function
Other fun special python intake form is
def function(**kwargs):
for key in kwargs:
print(key, kwargs[key])
function(a="123", hello="world")
Prints
a 123
hello world
*args is an unnamed tuple. **kwargs is a dictionary of named input values.
lime falcon
Python is fun. Anyways back to making sure the bot does what it should on server join.
scenic crest
👍
shrewd field
the code works but
it only gives the part which says "access denied"

how can i make it say kicked user

I give up. I just can’t get the server count to update with Python. Even when I try @royal pelican’s example from #312614469819826177, all GET https://discordbots.org/api/bots/363007359204982786/stats gives me back is {"shards":[]}. Also, my bot’s page on discordbots.org says that my bot is offline, even though it’s not. Am I missing something? I can’t find any more documentation than that given on https://discordbots.org/api/docs.
prime cliff
@jolly zodiac The bot offline thing is a website bug
jolly zodiac
But it seems to work for other bots.
prime cliff
Did you use the bot specific tokens?
jolly zodiac
Yes I did.
lavish mango
@shrewd field could just use if(!message.member.hasPermission("KICK_MEMBERS")) return message.channel.send("you don't have the correct perms to use this commans"); instead of using catch
bitter sundial
@jolly zodiac it's supposed to be a post request
lavish mango
.settitle("text")
prime cliff
Oh yea
lavish mango
Can only do titles once
lavish mango
You can do .addfield("Usage !8ball", "Ask a question") @shrewd field
lavish mango
You can do multiple .addfields
shrewd field
and i need the description part
lavish mango
Only things like title, description, footer are limited to 1
jolly zodiac
@bitter sundial It is, I just used the GET request to check if it has worked.
shrewd field
huh
bitter sundial
check the error from the post
shrewd field
how does he do it
trim steppe
The documentation for embeds are on the discord API docs
jolly zodiac
It doesn’t seem to give me any errors, @bitter sundial. Or I’m overlooking something.
bitter sundial
check status code and response body
if you dont get those you aren't sending anything
jolly zodiac
I get HTTP code 200 – OK
And I’m POSTing {"server_count": 3}
@bitter sundial
But even then the response body just says {"shards":[]}
scenic crest
Server count is supposed to be used non sharding I think
jolly zodiac
And it doesn’t matter if I use the example or my own solution: ```python
count
b'{"server_count": 3}'
testreq = urllib.request.Request("http://discordbots.org/api/bots/363007359204982786/stats")
testreq.add_header("Content-Type", "applications/json")
testreq.add_header("Authorization", "my token")
resp = urllib.request.urlopen(testreq, count)
resp.read()
b'{"shards":[]}'
resp.getcode()
200
inner jewel
you can use it while sharding too
jolly zodiac
And it’s just the response, anyway.
scenic crest
you make a regular command and make it return the number of guilds
if you're using d.js
bot.guilds.size
or client.guilds.size
depends on what you called the instance
jolly zodiac
I am posting. If you give urllib.request.urlopen() a second argument, that’s what it will post. If you just pass it one argument, namely the Request object created before, it’s just a GET request.
And the method returns an object containing the server’s response.
You could also include the POST data in the Request object itself, but the results should be the same.
My solution is more or less like they do it in the Python documentation.
Only that it’s JSON.
scenic crest
ah
could be that you don't need to put +
that should be inside the quotation marks
"blah ${x.y} blah blah"
scenic crest
idk
bitter sundial
@jolly zodiac well it's not working. Despite having the second argument it is still doing a get
shrewd field
ok
south bolt

it works

Anyone interested in helping with my bot? You need to be good with working on stuff using many API's OR you can help with the back end database systems... I'm making a bot that acts as a bridge between Discord, normal phone calls, SMS and many other messaging platforms such as Telegram, Email, WhatsApp, Facebook Messager, a Socket.IO chatroom, IRC, and more. We're using twilio for SMS and voice calls right now, but we're open to change. We haven't decided on a database yet, so if you'd like to use a certain database, be prepared to explain the pros and cons of it as well as why it will fit our needs better than another option. Knowledge of server-side JavaScript is required. DM me on Discord (moose#3054) or email me: cooper@moosehub.xyz

For each to send message
lime falcon
What library are you using?
earnest phoenix
Commando and discord.js
Like
I want to have it so you can mention a user
And i.e. it gets their ID
lime falcon
Alright. Just quick note that if it's similar to discord.py there should be methods for getting mentions from a user object
earnest phoenix
Erm k
lime falcon
I'm looking up documentation quick
trim steppe
Use <@id here>
trim steppe
message.mentions?
lime falcon
.toString()
When concatenated with a string, this automatically concatenates the user's mention instead of the Member object.
earnest phoenix
And it gets their ID
lime falcon
Ohhh
trim steppe
wow
earnest phoenix
Just inside a function?
trim steppe
Message mentions and then get the tag of the user
trim steppe
Pretty sure message.mentions returns a user
So you can just do message.mentions[0].tag
earnest phoenix
//message.reply(message.mentions + "'s ID is: " + message.mention.id)?
Well why are you using an array in the string
earnest phoenix
MessageMentions
Oh
Wait
Whoops
My bad
The array is supposed to be out of the string
Dere
whoops
Okay there
////message.reply(message.mentions.username + "'s ID is: " + message.mention.id)
So this?
WAIT
Okay
trim steppe
Array
earnest phoenix
Is this the proper code?
trim steppe
How do you access elements of an array
earnest phoenix
?
trim steppe
Do you know JavaScript?
earnest phoenix
Yes lmfao
umbral pelican
🤦
trim steppe
Wtf
earnest phoenix
Ugh dont judge :/
trim steppe
Properties
trim steppe
You need to research terms
earnest phoenix
User_pattern
trim steppe
Is message.mentions a collection or an array
because a collection is a d.js extension of a map
You need to use .first() instead there
umbral pelican
you'll need message.mentions.users or .members
trim steppe
I didn't have the docs on hand
umbral pelican
read the docs then 🤦
earnest phoenix
I did XD
earnest phoenix
I can
trim steppe
If you don't understand the terminology
earnest phoenix
Alright so, now i can create a ban system along with a ping ID system
Bro
Of course i dont understand
The terms
Lol
All i know is that there are .<values>
Lol dont judge pls
Alrighty created a testing thing
Uh
It came up "Undefined's id is: undefined"
umbral pelican
because it's an array
earnest phoenix
Okay
umbral pelican
collection
umbral pelican
map
earnest phoenix
//message.reply(message.channel.name + "'s ID is: " + message.channel.id);
This works fine
.>
umbral pelican
wtf
trim steppe
Check if it exists first
trim steppe
In case there is no mention
trim steppe
It's a map
Read the docs for a collection
Which is an extension of a mao
Mao
Map
earnest phoenix
Should i use an array?
To store the data?
"Array.map"
sure
you could use sql or enmap but it's really your choice.
;-;
trim steppe
Array.map is different
That goes through an array and does something with every element
earnest phoenix
Alright, so how would this be useful in mentions >.>
trim steppe
Therefore you need to use .first() on the collection
earnest phoenix
Ah
Okay
So
wait
Hm
Attached to what?
Any function?
Nonono
.>
Okay wait
So whats happening is
The message.mentions is turning it into an ID
I need to store that ID
Then call it?
message
.mentions
.first()
Okay
What do i put inside first?
Like what kind of code
Oh
Hm
So in this case it would be .first(1)?
Since i need 1 value?
okay what do you want to do
I want to get a user's ID from their mention
earnest phoenix
okay so if a user mentions your bot you want to get the id of them?
trim steppe
Read the docs
earnest phoenix
trim steppe
You need to learn how to read the docs correctly because trying random values won't help
earnest phoenix
It says to put a count in .first([count])
trim steppe
Throw a URL at me
trim steppe
message
earnest phoenix
Its not in message though
Its in collections
The count is optional.
Oh
Okay
I assigned the code to a variable
So according to what you guys said
It should get the first mention
And store it
trim steppe
Wait
earnest phoenix
?
trim steppe
.members are members that are mebtiobed
earnest phoenix
var mentions = new message.mentions.first()
earnest phoenix
Mebtiobed?

How lol >.>
umbral pelican
or do you call them something else in your terminology 
earnest phoenix
Apparently it wont let me if i dont lol

But then you'll just delete the code after seeing the error anyway
trim steppe
It'll be fun finding out how to catch promises
trim steppe

I did lol

My bot has a user account
trim steppe
I'm sorry I'm going to contact b1nzy

and then interpret it correctly

Nah im not gonna have my bot friend people
Its just too complex
Now, imma do a ban system!

Gonna go research that
trim steppe
Try not asking us for everything
