By getting the user

tardy hatch May 21, 2018, 10:00 PM

Facepalm

#

I want to make this command

#

To do this:

#

'If anyone type prefix invite'

#

'Bot DM with a link'

#

😐

ruby dust May 21, 2018, 10:01 PM

#

get a user that sent that command and send them the content

solid cliff May 21, 2018, 10:02 PM

#

then it would be pass_context=True and add a ctx to the def aaand get user object as ctx.message.author

iirc let sometimes bug code i dont fully remember the difference with var. but i know they are differnt

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:14 PM

#

Back.

#

How?

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:16 PM

#

google difference between let, var, and const u should find why

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:16 PM

#

If I change it what will happen to the embed?

#

No I know the difference.

#

I mean the embed.

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:17 PM

#

i dont think it will change

#

do u get an error when u run the command?

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:17 PM

#

If I change our let winner to be var winner , they'll come back as true , because it's not inside of a function, it's not scoped to it, whereas a let variable is. The other thing we need to know about it is that the difference between let and const is that const variables cannot be updated

#

Wait just to double check it should be:

#

https://hastebin.com/hoqavuzami.js

#

So the code should be like this?

#

const Discord = require('discord.js')

#

It has that.

#

What about it?

#

Oh that.

#

I see.

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:22 PM

#

Just saw.

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:23 PM

and why
if (!args[1])?

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

that’s right

#

I was to do that by one you guys.

#

oh [0]

#

Ok changed to [0]

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:25 PM

#

but if (!args[0]) means if u dont have args[0] it will not do anything

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:25 PM

#

Oh so 1?

#

avoid doing that

#

What do I do?

#

if args[0] is a bool

#

it would return false

#

So args 1?

#

you want to do if (args[0] === undefined)

#

or null

#

instad of ! check

#

! check works that same way

#

not really

#

if args[0] is false

#

Ok.

#

get it?

#

if you're trying to check if something exists

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

can u go to my guild for a while Atlas

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

use the !== undefined

#

or null

#

https://hastebin.com/qubafejaku.js better?

#

if it’s false how could it be undefined then?

#

you dont get it

#

!something = check if false

#

!== undefined/null = check if exists

#

the problem with using the first one is that if the users inputs a false boolean (in this situation)

#

it would return false

lament meteor May 22, 2018, 1:28 PM

#

if args[0] === false it is the same thing as if !args[0]

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:28 PM

#

yea

#

what were you trying to check, if it was false?

#

or if it exists

#

as in defined

#

So what do I do??

spring ember May 22, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

What is the error

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

If you are wanna get a member by tagging them, please use

message.mentions.members.first()

instead of

message.guild.member(message.mentions.users.first()) || message.guild.members.get(args[0])

Also instead of doing something like this

args.join(" ").slice(22);

Use this instead

args.slice(1).join(" ");

That way it slices the first argument, without leaving any empty space.

And if you are kicking or banning a user, you must use

User.kick(Reason) //or 
User.ban(Reason)

instead of

message.guild.member(User).kick(Reason) //or
message.guild.member(User).ban(Reason)

Additionally, if you want to tag someone with the bot and you have the user object you can just send the user object, like this:

Channel.send(`Hello there ${UserObject}`);

instead of using this

Channel.send(`Hello there <@${UserObject.id}>`);

#

what are the common reasons a discord bot returning 403 code?

inner jewel May 22, 2018, 4:42 PM

#

lack of permissions

ruby dust May 22, 2018, 4:44 PM

#

odd...

#

so here's a thing I'm assuming, it's returning 403 because it can't find the message specified? cause that's what's happening

#

I give it a non existant message id intentionally and it should say that it didn't find the message, but instead it prints that error

uncut slate May 22, 2018, 4:46 PM

#

if it can't find the message it'd probably spit out a 404

ruby dust May 22, 2018, 4:47 PM

#

but it's not

uncut slate May 22, 2018, 4:47 PM

#

if you're getting a 403 with getmessage you probably don't have READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY

ruby dust May 22, 2018, 4:47 PM

#

hmm

#

nope, that's not it

#

I gave the bot a limit of looking back up to 500 messages per channel to find that message, may that be the cause?

#

I'm starting to think it's discord's at fault that fucks it up weirdly

uncut slate May 22, 2018, 4:50 PM

#

highly doubt it

ruby dust May 22, 2018, 4:51 PM

#

the other weird thing about it is that it worked fine before with a proper way of failing to find that message, and now without changing anything at all it started this crap instead

#

I haven't touched the code for like 4 days and this started yesterday

#

so no ideas?

its not a bool xD

you use || so isn't it a bool ?

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 7:13 PM

what 雪音 said

#

|| doesn't mean its a bool

#

e.g. const lorem = null || "hello" lorem will be "hello"

halcyon abyss May 22, 2018, 7:14 PM

#

mb I though doing this would convert the expression to bool

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 7:15 PM

#

hmm

#

it will store the first expression that evaluates as true (a non-empty string, a number > 0, a true bool etc.) or the expression of the last result

#

but how should I do it ?

#

do a console.log(cmd) and show us what the map returns

#

I save client.commands as a "enmap"

#

"collections"

#

well redis is a key/value database, it can work as a persistent database for some situations with many considerations (like no need of SQL magic, small data storing etc.) with some good configuration and preparation from the beginning but its usually advised against

abstract crystal May 22, 2018, 8:30 PM

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 9:01 PM

#

oops

#

setActivity returns a promise, it could be the one that errors

#

you execute it a few seconds after your bot is ready so it'd make sense

#

so how would I get it to wait a few seconds?

#

just catch promise errors in case it throws one

#

when dealing with promises you either have to await for them

#

or catch any potential errors they might throw

#

if you await on a promise the error will be thrown in the stack

#

https://hastebin.com/kexomaneye.js

#

that?

#

where you do setActivity(...) do it like setActivity(...).catch(console.error)

#

Ok

#

https://hastebin.com/nojejepako.css what's dis?

#

nope, not the setActivity

#

wait

you have modular code

smh

#

you are doing let seconds = ms(5000) for some reason and that calls upon ms module which converts 5000 ms to 5s (string) then you do setInterval(function() { // set bot activity here }, seconds) which causes the interval to spam as it wants an integer param in ms not a string

#

which causes bot.user.setActivity to spam and not sure how discord.js handles that

client.channels.get(settings.notifyChannel).send('My Message')

does not work...

raw sandal May 22, 2018, 9:50 PM

#

What are the params for client.channels.get()?

knotty steeple May 22, 2018, 9:50 PM

#

it has to be an id

#

also make it get the guild id

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 9:51 PM

#

What does settings.notifyChannel contain

#

Where does that come from?

#

Also are you reading the discord.js docs

#

?

knotty steeple May 22, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

its a channel i think

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 9:57 PM

#

i figured but i wanted to know its actual value.

#

also client.channel.get returns a Channel

#

there's no send method on Channel

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 10:00 PM

#

settings.notifyChannel is athe channel name of a specific channel?

#

so how do I make it send it to a channel ?

#

that i only kno wthe name on?

#

if its the name you have to do find("name", settings.notifyChannel) instead of get

#

get is strictly for collection key and in that case that's the id aka snowflake

#

like this? client.channel.find("name", settings.notifyChannel).send('My Message')

#

yes

#

but channels not channel

#

thx mate :))

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

That works? Because channels is a Collection of Channel

topaz fjord May 22, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

it is on the discord.js docs

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

Doesnt it need to be a TextChannel

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

Channel is the base class which is extended by DM/Text channel etc

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

yes

#

i know

#

send isnt on the base class though

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 10:05 PM

#

doesn't matter, the retrieved object will be the proper class

topaz fjord May 22, 2018, 10:05 PM

#

Channel is all the channels, whether group, dm, text, etc.

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 10:05 PM

#

also if you will be using find with name its better to search by guild first @earnest phoenix

#

otherwise you'll have conflicts

#

snowflakes are unique, names aren't

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 10:06 PM

#

Hmm.

topaz fjord May 22, 2018, 10:07 PM

#

although iirc if u use .find() on the channel it finds the type of channel and returns that

earnest phoenix May 22, 2018, 10:07 PM

#

correct, it will return the object with its proper class based on its type

topaz fjord May 22, 2018, 10:09 PM

#

which is why you can use .send on it

blazing stag May 22, 2018, 10:10 PM

#

cools

#

Ahh yeah i found an instance where i was doing this too.

#

but im in typescript land, so i had to do a cast

#

const channelToMessage: TextChannel = this.channels.get(notifyChannel.id) as TextChannel;

#

In order for this to work

#

add a gitignore

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 1:09 AM

#

what to do next? xd

#

i can still see it

abstract mango May 23, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

.gitignore needs content in it to hide it

#

basically

#

# gitignore file

# example
secret.json

git will not hide if you've already commited it, you need to git rm --cached secret.json
and then probably should reset your token because it will most likely still show up in git's history

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 1:13 AM

#

wait

#

how do i do that command like thing

frail kestrel May 23, 2018, 1:13 AM

#

???

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

thegit rm --cached secret.json thing

frail kestrel May 23, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

that’s a command

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

idk is it

frail kestrel May 23, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

do you have git installed

#

yes it is

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

git bash?

frail kestrel May 23, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

thst works i think

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 1:39 AM

#

hey. for js how would i do cooldown errors? basically a command has a cooldown and if the command is run before the cooldown ends, the bot sends a message with the time remaining on the cooldown.

shy verge May 23, 2018, 1:45 AM

#

aren't you using akairo

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:46 AM

#

yes

#

@shy verge i am using the akairo

#

sorry for the ping

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

akairo has a cooldown param in it's command constructor

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

example pls?

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

in your super function

#

just use cooldown

#

value is counted in milliseconds

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

i know, but i want to display an error message if the cmd is run before the cooldown ends

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

do you have a commandBlocked listener

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

i think so

#

its in a listeners folder yes

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:49 AM

#

kk

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:50 AM

#

so what happens here

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

k nvm

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

?

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

create a listener for the commandCooldown event

#

it's emitted by commandHandler

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:54 AM

#

thats the event name right?

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:54 AM

#

yes

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:55 AM

#

so i would do eventName: commandCooldown

shy verge May 23, 2018, 2:55 AM

#

yes

dusty sandal May 23, 2018, 2:55 AM

#

ok thank

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 4:15 AM

#

ok im still confused on how to hide files on github, ill provide more information:

lib: python
host: heroku
bot: psychic
question: i wanna hide my bot token, can someone give me an example rather than teaching me

please respond, i know this is annoying but i really need it

#

.gitignore

#

i need a tutorial on that

#

im new to github

#

(locally hosting bot and wanna host it on heroku)

fresh cedar May 23, 2018, 4:30 AM

#

@earnest phoenix there are a lot of tutorials available on YouTube

#

And they also explain how to hide private variables

#

And if heroku doesn't work for you i would also recommend glitch.com

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 4:31 AM

#

ok

shy verge May 23, 2018, 4:34 AM

#

heroku is literally the worst god damn thing ever

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 4:35 AM

#

sounds good

earnest phoenix May 23, 2018, 6:45 AM

#

uhm lol

#

If I change stuff here it appears in my mod-log on my own server

#

"newsNotify": "true",

#

client.channels.find("name", settings.modLogChannel).send(${key} successfully edited to ${value.join(" ")});

#

"modLogChannel": "mod-log",

#

why does it log stuff happening on this server?

#

how do I make it post on the guilds channel only?

#

Anyone know eris and is willing to help me out?

tardy hatch May 23, 2018, 9:41 AM

#

Hi there

#

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
async def stop():
    await bot.say('Shutting down..')
    await bot.logout()```

#

How to make this command

#

For owner only?

#

And how can i make this command to be used in a server/dm and to response in dm?

slender thistle May 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

Use bot.send_message(ctx.message.author, 'Shutting down..') and for owner only, you may use if ctx.message.author.id == 'YourIDHere'.

tardy hatch May 23, 2018, 10:26 AM

#

Thanks

#

❤

#

@slender thistle

#

  File "bot.py", line 17
    if ctx.message.author.id == '254198214415220738'
                                                   ^
