Hey guys anybody know a tutorial/wanna send me text tutorial how to make a website dashboard for bot?
Discord.js btw
slate basin
what do you call it when you need a webpage to fit the page without leaving white source
i mean like autofit
earnest phoenix
where
slate basin
give me a second
at the bottom of a page
sometimes if the page isn't made correctly
it will show your content
earnest phoenix
do you have a screen or something
having a hard time to understand what you mean
slate basin
that's not where it is
but you will see what i mean
the white line isn't there
but
you will see at the bottom while switching tabs of category
that the bottom shows more and more
abstract crystal
white source?
slate basin
idk how to explain it ;-;
earnest phoenix
you mean the empty space?
slate basin
i fixed the white thing
yeah
idk how to fix that
i can add dividing stuff
but that's a temp fix

Does anyone know how to make a meme command discord.js?
slate basin
use subreddits
earnest phoenix
divider is causing the empty space because of the long ass height it has

you needa use subreddits...
its the same with every other random image posting command
abstract crystal
@violet wyvern you can get an api (i can allow you to use mine: https://api.ksoft.si) or you can use other apis like reddit api
slate basin
smh...

@violet wyvern it goes the same, also there is a lot of documentation

violet wyvern
I still dunno how to use APIs

what do you use for cat images?

request
.get('https://api.ksoft.si/meme/random-meme')
.set('Authorization', 'Token insert_your_token_here')
.then(function(res) {
// Do the json parsing and logic here
});
I need to do that in a .json file?
violet wyvern
if (command === "cat") {
const { body } = await superagent
.get('aws.random.cat/meow');
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setColor(0x954D23)
.setTitle("Meow 🐱")
.setImage(body.file)
message.channel.send({embed})
request
.get('https://api.ksoft.si/meme/random-meme')
.set('Authorization', 'Token insert_your_token_here')
.then(function(res) {
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setColor(0x954D23)
.setTitle("Random meme")
.setImage(res.url)
message.channel.send({embed})
});
you need a Authorization header so the api knows who you are
don't put you bot token here
you get your token on the website
abstract crystal
never post your bot token anywhere except discord
yes api key you get in https://api.ksoft.si/dashboard
but first you need to add an application
violet wyvern
I already did that 😄
abstract crystal
sorry i don't see your application

@brisk notch .toLowerCase() is a string method, not an array method. So you'd have to either make it to a string or possibly do a for loop or .forEach() to make each index lower case?

misty pawn
ok. So is it a own function/class or?
elfin cobalt

elfin cobalt
so i didnt fail?
misty pawn
You probably did
elfin cobalt

misty pawn
I personally use something like this:
public static EmbedBuilder getEmbed(User user){
return new EmbedBuilder()
.setFooter("Requested by " + user.getName() + "#" + user.getDiscriminator(), user.getEffectiveAvatarUrl())
.setTimestamp(ZonedDateTime.now());
}
And use it later for embeds.
Makes it a little bit easier for me.
uncut slate
@heady zinc you could tho
uncut slate
const { body } = await superagent.get({ ... });
and what would even be the point of doing that
uncut slate
not having to use res.body
heady zinc
so none 
uncut slate
well, no
heady zinc
discarding everything but the body is not quite nice for error handling 🙃
uncut slate
error handling would be in a .catch clause where you have complete access to the object
slender thistle
Read #rules-and-info. Eh, you got answer in #general.
earnest phoenix
I?
uncut slate
const { body } = await get()
.catch(res => ({ body: 'fuck' + res.statusCode }));
Yes, you. @earnest phoenix
earnest phoenix
Thank you
inner jewel
@elfin cobalt that happens because of getEb().build() + ""
the + "" calls the toString() method of the object
which gives that string for embeds
elfin cobalt
and how i can send random embeds?
inner jewel
MessageChannel#sendMessage(MessageEmbed)
MessageAction#embed(MessageEmbed)
MessageBuilder#setEmbed(MessageEmbed) + MessageChannel#sendMessage(Message)
elfin cobalt
okay
inner jewel
or instead of building an array you use a switch/if there

return text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203));
else
return text;
}```you see this ppart
vestal cradle
you can remove it
earnest phoenix
well
not modified
but youre changing what you put in
eval will still always support everything
vestal cradle
nope
earnest phoenix
you are simply modifying the user input
vestal cradle
i'm not
earnest phoenix
you are simply restricting input
vestal cradle
let me just say
earnest phoenix
but at the core of it eval still supports math
vestal cradle
return text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203));
else
return text;
}``` this is the part has been removed by menot added
earnest phoenix
i get it, you can do all of that stuff
but its wrong to say eval cant support math or it can be disabled
vestal cradle
i didn't said eval cant support
earnest phoenix
because it will always support it and you cant control it
earnest phoenix
you cant disable it either tho, eval is unsafe feature and it can do everything, always, so its up to you to restrict the input
when you say disable, you are merely controlling what goes in
not what it can evaluate
vestal cradle
lemme just say what am talking
so technically
return text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203));
else
return text;
}``` this is the part of a code that coders add in a simple eval , usually to make a math from eval you need to write the whole function like [prefix]eval int a; jada jada jada message.channel.send(this + that ); usually but coders added the above part where i said "math isn't needed for eval to work, quick math is something you can add to your evalmath can be done by scratch code but the code above makes it so you can simply do 1+1 without adding all the code in
earnest phoenix
i think the fuss here is simply a difference in view on definitions, i understand what youre doing, but to me it sounds like youre trying to say you can change how eval works, when its simply just modifying or restricting input. thats all
vestal cradle
let's say this
[prefix]eval x = 2; y = 3; message.channel.send(x + y);
that's the part that gets simplified by js return text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203)); else return text; }
so eval can do math but it's not relavent to add the "eval 1+1 " <--- this bit is simplified version of [prefix]eval x = 2; y = 3; message.channel.send(x + y);
how about you add this case to @uncut slate if you're here
uncut slate
what
vestal cradle
so @uncut slate
into an "eval code" is math "needed" for eval to work
or is the math part just simpliefied version of [prefix]eval x = 2; y = 3; message.channel.send(x + y);
topaz fjord
you can just eval [prefix]eval let thing = 2+3; message.channel.send(thing)
uncut slate
I'm still confused, what are you trying to ask
vestal cradle
does eval have to respoond "eval 2+2"
as in eval's firstform
not after adding js return text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203)); else return text; }
knotty steeple
what are you trying to do 🤔
uncut slate
"eval 2+2" would be interpreted as 2+2, no variables
vestal cradle
yes but does eval need to answer that
like if it doesn't have math it won't work
adfljasdjfkasdf
scratch that
does eval work if it doesn't respond to 2+2
there
without restriction
vestal cradle
then can i ask
how does my eval work
coz what i understood
people add this peace of code to their eval
eturn text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203));
else
return text;
}```which is not needed
trim plinth
wat
native narwhal
Confused
vestal cradle
@native narwhal 2 of my friends says that "eval" SHOULD respond to the simpliefiedversion to "2+2"
which i say thats bs
because eval 2+2 is simpliefied version by js eturn text.replace(/`/g, "`" + String.fromCharCode(8203)).replace(/@/g, "@" + String.fromCharCode(8203)); else return text; }
normally if you want math without adding that code you do
eval x = 2; y = 3; message.channel.send(x + y);
native narwhal
You have posted the same piece of code 7 times now 😂
vestal cradle
ys coz that's the peace of code that everyone is concerned should be on eval
it SHOULDN'T but it can be intto eval
native narwhal
Well you can just refer to the already sent piece of code instead of sending it again 😂
vestal cradle
ye you can
i was just trying to prove 2 of my friends
that keep bsing about NEEDING to have that
which pretty much turns eval x = 2; y = 3; message.channel.send(x + y); this into this eval 2 + 3

@& is for mentioning a role specifically, and a deleted role most likelly means that the role doesn't exist

the role is exists

just for the record, it doesn't work without it

if I did it, why am I incorrect?
idk
now what's left is to doubt if your role actually exists or not
knotty steeple
or is it pingable
upper ember
ruby dust
oh wait, how exactly did you get the role's id?
upper ember
what....?
knotty steeple
is that even an id of a role
ruby dust
rightclicking on the mentioned role doesn't work, that way you copy the message's id
best way is to do like me if you have your bot in that server
upper ember
right click --> copy id @ruby dust
slender thistle
That copies the message ID.
upper ember
seriously...?
ruby dust
do like I did in the screenshot
upper ember
javascript please
ruby dust
he tries to copy the role id, I assume
upper ember
well
ruby dust
not "for some reason"...
upper ember
doesn't work also with role id
native narwhal
What is the reason
ruby dust
maybe because it's not a role id?
upper ember
it is
ruby dust
you've been copying the message id all this time
native narwhal
I meant, you can't right click and copy the role id for some reason
It copies the message id instead of the role id
ruby dust
that actually makes sense
native narwhal
Why though
ruby dust
cause you can't click on the role mention just like on user mention?
native narwhal
Well the role mention is just the id underneath so I don't see why wouldn't be able to
ruby dust
because that way you'll be able to click on everyone and here mentions?
which isn't what I'd want to do
native narwhal
I don't see how that has much to do with this
native narwhal
Boi
A role mention is just <@&265125253443878912> parsed in to <@&265125253443878912> on the client so I don't see why you would not be able to right click and copy it
ruby dust
sometimes you'd have to stop and think why some features is best to not be implemented, and I'm sad seing how people can't understand that
native narwhal
Explain how a feature to copy the role id is "best to not be implemented" and don't bring up everyone and here because those two are irrelevant to this
ruby dust
it's not about "how it can be abused" or something, but it's just unnecessary... you expect to be able to do literally anything on discord and that's why it brings you to these questions
native narwhal
Why is unnecessary? It doesn't make any sense. It's as necessary as to have the ability to copy user ids
Well at this point it is an opinion based matter so I am just gonna leave this argument here
gilded thunder

That's the error now, same thing.

What does the json look like now

Same error.

all I found
@bot.event
async def on_command_error(self, message, error):
was this
what do I write for command not found?
gilded thunder
await bot.say("An error has occured.")```?It's supposed to have " but why does it not work 🤔
Unless it's a problem with the code and not the json
gilded thunder
This is how I call the token one
bot.run(config["Token"])
hazy marten
hmm
native narwhal
And how is config loaded
gilded thunder
I use VS Code.
native narwhal
But do you have it?
gilded thunder
Don't have it installed/
gilded thunder
UTF-8
native narwhal
The file might be UTF-8 BOM and in that case it would be a hidden character at the beginning of the file
Try to change the format and see if that works
gilded thunder
How would I do that?
native narwhal
?
You could probably just make a new file and then copy paste everything in to it
The only thing is that if it was a UTF-8 BOM file the error would have been different 🤔
gilded thunder
I'm trying different ways of loading it.
native narwhal
What about the data you're storing, do you have any quotes or anything in it?
gilded thunder
Yeah, I posted the JSON before.
native narwhal
Like I mean the actual data (What is inside the quotes), so probably only the token then since everything else is displayed there
gilded thunder
Prefix, token and owners ID.
native narwhal
Does the token have any quotes in it?
gilded thunder
Nope.
native narwhal
I really don't see a problem with it then
native narwhal
I don't know why it doesn't work
gilded thunder
hmmm
low rivet
why place it in an array?
gilded thunder
How else?
native narwhal
{
"Token": "no token",
"Prefix": "arc!",
"Owner": "372931332239654912"

Hope hat helps you.

ok wait
let me try it out
its not saying anything
its not raising an error
but its not saying anything
hmmm
hazy marten
still nothing tho
hazy marten
:/
@slender thistle so I took off the if instance
and I put
yea
I just ook out that line
and I get this
AttributeError: 'CommandNotFound' object has no attribute 'message'
await bot.send_message(ctx.message.channel, 'There is no such command!')

await bot.say('There is no such command!')

xD
@slender thistle
hazy marten
raise InvalidArgument(fmt.format(destination))
discord.errors.InvalidArgument: Destination must be Channel, PrivateChannel, User, or Object. Received CommandNotFound
DOOOOOOD
I GOT IT
I just put a global
in on_message
and did
x = message.channel
and then i just did
await bot.send_message(x , "There is no such command!")
@slender thistle thank you man
or woman
😮
slender thistle
hazy marten
the whole on_message???
global messagechannelmessagechannel = message.channel
global messagechannel
messagechannel = message.channel
my whole on message command is way toooo long
xD
you don't wanna see it
like whats in it
slender thistle
on_command is uh... unrelated to CommandNotFound error. 
hazy marten
I think it goes to it
when there is an error
and then you have to compare the error
so
if isinstance error == commands.CommandNotFound):
await bot.say('There is no such command!')
something like
that
but im unsure
if its like that
but thats like
my logical thoguh?
thought*?
slender thistle
if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
await bot.say('There is no such command!')```exception discord.ext.commands.CommandNotFound(message=None, *args)¶

I am using rewrite and...
elif isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):

await bot.send_message(messagechannel, ":exclamation: Please Review Your Statement")
ctx.send?
nope
slender thistle
Don't mind me. I am using another version of library.
hazy marten
What
slender thistle
Doing await bot.send_message(ctx, ":exclamation: Please Review Your Statement") doesn't work, does it?
slender thistle
It works like that for me.
slender thistle
await bot.send_message(ctx.message.channel, ":exclamation: Please Review Your Statement")?
ruby dust
one question, why do you want your bot to send command not found error messages? if thinking about user-friendlyness, there is a high chance that a server will be having more than one bot with the same prefix as yours, so you are clearly making a server be spammed with that crap, plus your bot is already muted for responding to bots, and you are just making another reason to keep it muted here
if at this point you just want to get rid of your console be spammed with command not found errors, swapping this spam to a discord chat is not the best idea
hazy marten
I was told
that it was good
to do so
good practise
wait
lemme find the message
hazy marten
Oh
my god
you said isn't
I'm blind
and it was you
ahahaha
xD
rip
thank youu, cuz I hate error checking
ruby dust
I'll give you a link where best practices are listed
hazy marten
okay
hazy marten
thank you
yo @ruby dust bots like pokecord, have a gift system for people who vote for their bots. How does the bot, recognize how it has voted?
lament meteor
Dbl webhooks
hazy marten
webho- ok nvm
native narwhal
native narwhal
What are the limits for that
lament meteor
60/60 iirc
native narwhal
Should be fine for small bots
native narwhal
Server count
native narwhal
Well the more users you have the more they are going to use the commands (and with servers comes users)
ruby dust
you have to use webhooks if your bot gets to getting over 1000 monthly votes iirc
native narwhal
No, that is only for this
hazy marten
oh ok
native narwhal
What I sent does not have such limitations
hazy marten
btw how much does an average server cost (SQL)
ruby dust
you mean a vps?
hazy marten
Virtual Private Servers?
Well I don't know much about like SQL
I know SQLite3
a bit
of it
so enlighten me
ruby dust
sql is a database, not a server
hazy marten
because if my bot gets more people, I think I would have to move to like an online server
where it an host the database
it is an*
that doesnt make sense
where it can host the database*
ruby dust
you don't have to be so specific about "hosting databases", it's just a file that contains data
a vps is most likelly what you are asking for
ruby dust
I would recommend skysilk
they are in free beta with 100% discount, and will have a free plan later when beta will be closed
hazy marten
thanks ❤

class dbl.Client(bot, token, **kwargs)
bot – An instance of a discord.py Bot or Client object
what does it take
because I get this
Unclosed client session
client_session: <aiohttp.client.ClientSession object at 0x0000018DD32B3668>
and I'm unsure what's the problem
@ruby dust
ruby dust
is this dbl api?
ruby dust
I don't really use dbl lib, I use aiohttp requests
buoyant oak
what does unclosed client session mean
ruby dust
you didn't close the session, I assume
buoyant oak
await bot.change_presence(game=discord.Game(name='With Governments'))
token = '#############' # set this to your DBL token
dblpy = dbl.Client(bot, token)
ohhhhhh
ok
how do i dothat
xD
ruby dust
in my case I have session defined as aiohttp.ClientSession(), so it'd be await session.close()
buoyant oak
it says
**session (Optional) – The aiohttp session to use for requests to the API.
whats the purpose of aiohttp
ruby dust
it's a python module
buoyant oak
yea i know that, but what's its primary function
ruby dust
are you using dbl lib?
ruby dust
honestly, why is the lib even needed? it's like it's so hard to post server count directly to the api
buoyant oak
xD
ruby dust
while True:
url = 'https://discordbots.org/api/bots/stats'
headers = {'Authorization': 'CENSORED'}
payload = {'server_count': len(bot.guilds)}
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
async with session.post(url, data = payload, headers = headers) as r:
if r.status == 200:
await session.close()
await asyncio.sleep(1800)
that's how I have mine
ruby dust
have you checked docs?
buoyant oak
huh
slim heart
i have
buoyant oak
198466968725094400
415570038175825930
wait no
how do you get it specifically for your bot?
buoyant oak
...
I would like to educate, and enlighten myself through the code provided, after which I would assimilate code to fulfill my requirements
inshort, maybe
I mean it looks simple
ruby dust
take this as an example from #312614469819826177
but it's a bit outdated and it's not really the best idea to update server count on guild join/leave if it's happening a lot
since it will spam dbl's api
ruby dust
instead you should have an own loop with a fixed interval
ruby dust
you want to post server count with a command?
ruby dust
I'm not sure what you want anymore...
