very bad idea
trim saddle
@forest stump if you try to save data yes
shy verge
horrible idea
forest stump
oof
shy verge
heroku is just a bad host in every possible way
trim saddle
but otherwise its fine..
forest stump
rn my bot doesn't save any data tho lol
trim saddle
but local hosting is best
forest stump
is it free
trim saddle
imo
forest stump
i dont wanna have my pc open 24/7 ew
uncut slate
local hosting is pretty awful lol
trim saddle
online hosting doesn't usually save data
forest stump
my router stops working too often at night to local host lol
shy verge
@trim saddle boi what drugs are you on
any hosting solution worth it's salt can hold data
any hosting solution AT ALL
trim saddle
my bot uses heroku + mLab
trim saddle
i use it until i can get back on linux
forest stump
seems to work fine but the bot i'm using on it rn is extremely simple
glossy mason
Heroku is designed to be scalable with Dynos that can be created and destroyed at any point without interruption. The ephemeral filesystem reinforces this and encourages the usage of a database and other data stores for storage that multiple Dynos can interact with, especially when scaling. It's not designed to be a VPS.
inner jewel
also heroku wasn't designed to handle a bot
even hosting a single shard/dyno might still be too much depending on what you do
shy verge
heroku sleeps your shit if it's inactive 
inner jewel
that's why people cheat doing requests to themselves
low garden
ok, i am fixing ehm... 2-5 cmds but now the bot online in release 😃
inner jewel
so you can add an http server to the load as well :^)
hot sleet
what is the best way to make dashboard for my bot ?
glossy mason
That's if you use a web dyno instead of a worker dyno. It (and similar services) are designed for a specific market that want it to work the way it does, however it is not designed with Discord bots in mind like you suggest.
hot sleet
like npm modules
queen violet
like a web dashboard?
trim saddle
when my bot was in 10 servers i just had a loop to print to the terminal so it wouldn't sleep
hot sleet
yeah
queen violet
express i guess
trim saddle
but now that its in 101 or something thats no longer an issue
gilded plankBOT

-report copied bot
@stable crow i copy of another bor

trim saddle
owopup is a furry bot. OwO is an anime bot with other shit
trim saddle
sure same prefix, but not same bot
queen violet
i meant he tagged the same bot that luca sent
hot sleet
may he will report you
queen violet
not that your bot is the same as owo
trim saddle
owo's not a copyrighted name >:L
queen violet
ye
night imp
the name can't be copyrighted if it is a different bot
hot sleet
i know
night imp
Doesn't matter what base was used
hot sleet
what about owo prefix
night imp
conversation over
queen violet
if that was the case every bot with ! would be beaned
hot sleet
so
native narwhal
They are made in two different languages too
hot sleet
what can be copyrighted
night imp
that's like copyrighting the wheel
trim saddle
NOTHING
inner jewel
code
trim saddle
well that
night imp
@hot sleet code
hot sleet
wait
hot sleet
wait wait
forest stump
pretty sure the only case would be if someone literally just stole your source code
hot sleet
99% of bots have same avatar command code is that means copyright
safe axle
what's going on?, I got a report command from @sacred spruce and it said copied bot
night imp
Different licenses have different rules
inner jewel
if the code comes from a tutorial which allows copying however users want, no issues there
night imp
Some require a tieback to the original while some don't.
misty quest
Is it sad that I have all of my commands in 1 class file?
hot sleet
can i copy luca code
queen violet
yes
hot sleet
may i will hack it
inner jewel
yes
night imp
Why would you but sure
inner jewel
good luck copying closed source code
safe axle
haha
queen violet
can i hack oliys computer
queen violet
offtopic much
inner jewel
forest stump
if my bot gets declined i can resubmit it right
hot sleet
yeah
safe axle
you need to fix whatever got you rejected
trim saddle
review the reason and fix it before resubmitting
forest stump
ye ofc
safe axle
yea you can
hot sleet
just check the decline reason
misty quest
What’s the avatar update event called?
forest stump
what api
misty quest
JDA

queen violet
misty quest
Shoulda probably checked the docs before asking xD
safe axle
maybe xd
queen violet
literally searched with intellij
native narwhal
Neon 👀
safe axle
yeah but the library for the bot
low garden
i use Eclipse, discord.js
native narwhal
Isn't neon from like 2016 xD

I have an issue with a JSON database. I'm using the code below to save it whenever I edit it, but it isn't working. What am I doing wrong?
var database = require('./settings.json');
function save() {
fs.writeFile('./settings.json', JSON.stringify(database), (err) => {
if (err) console.error(err)
console.log('Saved database!');
});
}
trim plinth
- don't use json for storing a lot of data 2. es6™
shell blade
Why is bad to use JSON databases?
topaz fjord
corruption
shell blade
Ah, okay.
lament rock
JSON files are prone to corruption and write locks which is not good if you're sharding
I suppose the same concept applies for SQL across shards but it's not as prone to corruption and it's easier to get data and write to it
shell blade
Whenever I edit my bot's code it restarts it. Will that cause the SQLite database to be cleared?
lament rock
no
shell blade
Okay, cool. Thanks and sorry.
lament rock
The database will be stored on disk. If you really plan on your bot to shard eventually, try and learn MySQL or another lib which acts like SQL but is non file based

HI HOW I CREATE MY BOT
quasi marsh
Can you code?
main temple
NO

Then learn how
native narwhal
- Learn how to code
- Make a bot

hello.. someone know how to make input space value block by argument?
argument 1 :
let args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split(" ");
if i use argument 1, i can use command to input args love : !example love
but, with argument 1. I can't use command to full input args : !example love fruits
"fruits" args not inputed to database, because blocked by split.
argument 2 :
let args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split("");
if i use argument 2, u all know.. the command will bring all with the values to call js, like : !example love
args will be call js : !example love.js , and the js can't call.
so, anyone know how to input full args love fruits to database?
i'm sorry if my english bad.
native narwhal
If you just want to get everything after the command you could probably do something like message.content.substring(message.content.indexOf(" ") + 1, message.content.length)
main temple
@shy rose GIVE ME YOU LINK
shy rose

shy rose
also no need for caps

oh yeah that
quasi marsh
Are you going to stop talking in all caps @main temple it's getting quite annoying and spammy?
shy rose
uh i cant afford the $400 a month cert on microsoft to have my product not say that
its not malware its jsut i cant afford the license to say its not ;-;
also maybe try get use to the web version they have basiclly the same features and saves can carry across
main temple

shy verge
shy rose
http://im-sorry-is-this-not.allowed.org/455869778083708938/2.png i mean here it is

the only diffrence of features is it lets you build offline and has a module called sockets which is a bit more advanced
main temple
IF MY ANITVIRUS SAY IS HAVE VIRUS IM SAY TO MICROSFT OK IM NO YOU NOT ADD VIRUS
shy rose
no caps ;-;
shy verge
lol
main temple
OK IM USE IT
shy verge
OK

@main temple Final warning, stop using caps
shy rose
also if you wanna pay the license for me to not have that warning feel free to send me the 400 a month

shy rose
yes?
shy verge
why in #development
shy rose
at start they asked how to make a bot then after that a huge chunk of shitpost got deleted
and here we are
glossy mason
Chewy, just wanted to say, your node editor bot builder is pretty cool.
shy verge
lemme guess, they're too lazy to learn a language and you gave him your dbm

if your antivirus says its a virus your antivirus is probs bad 
topaz fjord
inb4 they use norton

if you dont have php enabled in apache then yes
stray wasp
In the browser

I’m having some issues with the AvatarUpdateEvent
shy verge
how so
misty quest
So; I can get it to log the previous and new avatars (as well as their URLs) but I’m just not too sure how to get that sent to chat
shy verge
im not super experienced with JDA but I imagine it's embed builder has a addThumbnailUrl() and addImageUrl() method
plug the image urls into an embed or something
misty quest
Yeah, I know that. But the event had no method of getting a guild (that I’m aware of).
misty quest
Thonk indeed
shy verge
is there a broadstrokes MemberUpdatedEvent class you can use?
with just a before and after member object?
cause the guild would be a property of those member objects
shell blade
How can I get the ID of an animated emoji without Nitro?
shell blade
Alright.
oak nova
Does anyone have any python examples for using the API for posting server count?
oak nova
@slender thistle dbl.errors.Forbidden: Forbidden (status code: 403): {"error":"Forbidden"}
I'm guessing that has something to do with uh
tfw I forgot the name
slender thistle
Your token. 
slender thistle
oak nova
well, first I had to convert it from self to normal
because my bot is not coded for self
usage
dblpy = dbl.Client(client, config['dbltoken'])
try:
await dblpy.post_server_count()
logger.info('Posted server count ({})'.format(len(client.servers)))
except Exception as e:
logger.exception('Failed to post server count\n{}: {}'.format(type(e).__name__, e))```(It's not actually spaced like this)
Apparently, someone else is having the same issue too
slender thistle
Are you using it in on_ready event?
slender thistle
Posting the server count every 30 mins is a better idea rather than posting it everytime the bot is added to/removed from a server.
low rivet
yes, there are ratelimits
gilded blaze
It's like 60 per minute though. So pretty lenient.
stray wasp
"The 401 Unauthorized error is an HTTP status code that means the page you were trying to access cannot be loaded until you first log in with a valid user ID and password. If you have just logged in and received the 401 Unauthorized error, it means that the credentials you entered were invalid for some reason."
oak nova
Typical.
stray wasp
so your api key is wrong.
oak nova
it's right though
stray wasp
check again.
oak nova
It was working before I downgraded aiohttp
Because the latest version of aiohttp breaks my bot into pieces, so I needed to downgrade it
shy verge
wait don't you downgrade yarl not aiohttp
oak nova
@shy verge aiohttp removes my code which mosts uses the simple .get() crap
erm, not removes
breaks
the latest one
wow
somehow my token changed
and I don't remember changing it
oak nova
Unless I didn't realize
that I somehow pressed the change button
by mistake
@shy verge Nobody is getting through my 2FA.
shy verge
they could just be the luckiest fucks ever to live
oak nova
woah
okay, how do I disable the response messages
I don't want em spamming my terminal
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as aioclient:
await aioclient.post(dblurl, data=dblpayload, headers=dblheaders)```I tried adding aioclient.close() at the end
Anyone here know what I'm doing wrong?
turns out that example from #312614469819826177 was outdated
and alot of these examples are for rewrite
Maybe this is what happens when I ask for support at timezones nobody is on
What's worse is that I can't find documentation for this specific version of asyncio!
It's seems like it's buried with the latest version that breaks my bot
sick cloud
My embed descriptions aren't updating.. 👀 (discord.js):
if (command === 'poll') {
const poll = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setColor('#4a5177')
.setTitle((msg.member.nickname ? `${msg.member.nickname}` : `${msg.member.user.username}`) + ' has started a poll!')
.setDescription(`\`What are better, carrots or pickles?\`\n\n:carrot: Carrots\n:cucumber: Pickles `)
.addBlankField()
.addField('Ending in..', `12 minutes`, true)
.addField('Multiple votes?', `No`, true)
.setDescription('React with the matching emoji to vote!')
msg.channel.send({ embed: poll });
}
(everything else is working.. but the .setDescription isn't ;-;)
sick cloud
I see.. 👀
.setDescription('React with the matching emoji to vote!')
instead of .setFooter
🤦 stupid me
stray wasp
sweet haha
slender thistle
@oak nova Eh.
oak nova
@slender thistle ?
oak nova
Yeah, my bot doesn't use self, or rewrite.
that's the problem
I think this is working now, so far
if r.status == 200:
pass```calls it once every minute
slender thistle
Did you add asyncio.sleep(1800)? 
oak nova
asyncio.sleep(60)
but yeah
it's part of my minute loop
which also keeps track of the status
discord status, I meant.
slender thistle
aiohttp.post()? Is aiohttp equal to aiohttp.ClientSession() or what
oak nova
The problem I had with clientsession
was the "unclosed connection" crap
and the huge textwalls of what happened.
slender thistle
Try using async for posting as well.
slender thistle
Blame Python. 
oak nova
The only language I am good at.
Took me 4 years to go from "shit" to "less shit"
great progress I made.
It looks like my line works now
not sure how "optimized" it is.
slender thistle
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
async with session.post(dblurl, data=payload, headers=dblheaders) as r:
# your stuff
await asyncio.sleep(60)
``` Or wait.
slender thistle
Then just remove the as r thing. :^)
slender thistle
It should close itself.
stray wasp
any idea what the max reason string length is?
for like member.kick("REASON")
or member.ban("REASON")
sick cloud
Dunno, that might be something for the Discord API server though, they'd know.
stray wasp
sweet alright I'll look there.

helloo everyone..
so, do u know how to know server name by id server?

<@ its for member
<# for channel
what command for server?
some answer it can't mention server in chat
any other way?
thankyou 😊
trim plinth
you can't mention a server

any other way to know server name by id?

Not necessarily by the id but depending on the library you are using you can get a server object by its id and then get the name from there

guys
for discord.py
how do I add the reaction
1⃣
because
it keeps telling me
Unknown emoji
when I do this
await self.bot.add_reaction(msg , ":one:")
where msg is the msg
ruby dust
is this async?
buoyant oak
asyncio
don't I have to await
cuz its async
so I'm guessing yes
@ruby dust
is there anything special that I have to specifically import
this is the error I get
msg = await self.bot.say(embed=embed) await self.bot.add_reaction(msg,":one:")
this is what I wrote
buoyant oak
xD
solid cliff
When adding reactions, you can either send the unicode for standard emojis, or send name:id, not <:name:id> for custom emojis. 
trim saddle
and since the async branch is no longer being updated, you can't react animated emojis

it gives me a funky looking embed

how do I edit it correctly
also
when its edited
it has some words from the one before (if that makes sense)

like some words meant for the previous embed is still present
and it gives it the funky look
but once I switch and come bacj
its looks normal

that might be a bug with discord? idk. Its never happened to me before.

earnest phoenix
yes
halcyon torrent
I'm trying to connect my second bot, but this one doesnt seem to succeed in connecting to the API
earnest phoenix
wdym
halcyon torrent
also I tried the example and it didnt work
I mean I do bot.connect() then nothing
halcyon torrent
not even the emition of ready
sure
const Eris=require('eris')
const fs=require('fs')
const config=require('./conf.json')
const bot=new Eris(config.token)
bot.connect().catch(e => {
console.log(e)
process.exit(1)
})
bot.config=config
bot.commands={}
fs.readdir('./commands',(err,files)=>{
if(err){
console.log(err)
process.exit(1)
}
files.forEach(file =>{
var cmd=require('./commands/'+file)
cmd.names.forEach(name => bot.commands[name]=cmd)
})
})
bot.on('messageCreate',(msg)=>{
console.log('working')
})
bot.on('ready', ()=>{
console.log('ready')
})
tbh i would think of doing bot.connect at the bottom
halcyon torrent
even abal's example doesnt work so it's not because of the connect :x
sick cloud
Doesn't ready have to go before any other events?
uncut slate
make sure your token is valid
uncut slate
yeah that works fine for me, so either your token is invalid or your connection is bad
topaz fjord
or that
uncut slate
how long are you giving it to connect
uncut slate
eris should eventually time out with the connection
add a .then(() => console.log('hi')) to the connect() call
and just let it run
compact haven
so
I'm trying to improve my bot's mdn command
by using cheerio and getting the code snippet
const $ = cheerio.load('<pre class="syntaxbox">constructor([arguments]) { ... }</pre>');
.addField($('pre.syntaxbox'))
if anyone knows how to use cheerio please help
halcyon torrent
okay so, the .then logs something, but it doesnt trigger the ready event
uncut slate
try hooking your events before bot.connect()
although that wouldn't explain why the message event is borked aswell
uncut slate
shrugs
try running it on a VPS or on a different machine
or get someone to run it for you
uncut slate
boi
halcyon torrent
tho the old one was valid

mmhm
halcyon torrent
I mean, still valid
halcyon torrent
I know
okay, I meant, when I tried few minutes ago to connect with the old one, it was still valid xD

How do I stop this from happening every time I start my express server?
const express = require('express');

});
router.get('/install', function (req, res) {
res.render('install', { title: 'Install your blog.' });
});
module.exports = router;
Its trying to send / as well as /install, and while it works and goes to install, it errors ;-;
uncut slate
hmm, you might not want that next call after the redirect
topaz fjord
es6 pls
sick cloud
Hm, I need to use next(); though to get it to render install right?
uncut slate
Well, when you redirect to install it should call your listener for /install
I'm not entirely sure, test it
topaz fjord
you can make specific middleware
that is just a function, so you can place it where u want it
topaz fjord
like this https://media.turtle-bot.com/f/sjAhM.png
and i just place that where i need it
and if you were using it for yours it would be
router.get('/', <middle ware name>, (req, res) => { magic })

Hmmmmm okay, totally doesn't make sense but okay 👌

Lil' css question here, but my footer is overlapping content and not being pushed down by the <form> above it. 👀
How do I fix that so it gets pushed down?
sick cloud
Well I have this right now:
div.footer {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
padding: 24px 72px;
}
Well my issue is it always sticks, when I only want it to stick to the bottom when the page has no content to push it off view ;-;
sick cloud
hmmmmmmm
topaz fjord
i could recommend some to you
like bootstrap, materialize, or bulma
there are many
quartz kindle
what you want is a "sticky footer", its not that simple, but there are many code samples for it
topaz fjord
im pretty sure dbl uses semantic
uncut slate
bulma + parts of semantic
quartz kindle
me neither

Hi. I created my 1st Discord App. Can someone help me or direct me to how I can add it to my server as a bot in an info channel? The channel is already made with default permissions and settings. I'm hoping it's pretty simple to just add the app/bot to the channel somehow ?
quartz kindle
your bot should have an invite link that you can use to add it to your server, like you add any other bot
acoustic oracle
the only thing i see on the page/form for the app settings is a redirect url. that's where i put the url which contains the content I want the bot to display in the channel. i'm hoping that's right?
quartz kindle
nope
acoustic oracle
i have an app client ID & secret. do i have to create a Bot User perhaps? (I skipped that since it said it was irreversible)
quartz kindle
you can generate an invite link here https://discordapi.com/permissions.html

🎥 Discord.js Bot Tutorial | Part 1: Installing, Promises, Docs, Joining Servers, Userinfo
Yes you have to make a bot account
The above video will go through setup
quartz kindle
and then you have to actually get or code a bot software
acoustic oracle
a youtube video showed me a few lines of code for php. i believe that will grab the info via a message function and feed it to the bot
the url grabs some info from a forum for which i am a member of. (team trade history & updates)
quartz kindle
so you want the bot to receive a command, fetch the url, and post the url contents, correct?
acoustic oracle
i'd prefer for the bot to automatically be checking for new info and post the new info. for example the very first time grab the last 200 entries, then every so often (I dunno, 30 seconds or 1 hour) post any new trades that have been made
but yes.
quartz kindle
well, this is what you need and how it works
- a software in which the bot will be running 24/7
- software "logs in" to discord using your secret code
- your code will create a loop where it connects to the url and looks up the content
- cache the content or an identifier to keep track of what's new and what isnt
- post the content if the cache or identifier doesnt match any past posts
acoustic oracle
I will be creating other bots after, but I thought I'd start with 1 and make sure it works first then i can just alter the url for the others
quartz kindle
so first of all you need something in which to keep the bot running 24/7, it can be a server, it can be your own computer, etc
acoustic oracle
so my 1st problem is....isn't the discord server/app or bot supposed to be where it is running 24/7 ?
quartz kindle
then you need to decide for an environment and a language to work with
acoustic oracle
or can i put it in GitHub ? (will that work?)
quartz kindle
bots are simply accounts, meaning you created a bot account
now you need something that uses that account to log in and do things
like people do
acoustic oracle
i'm not very knowledgeable about GitHub, if i create the code there...will that suffice?
acoustic oracle
is there any service that will let me run it for free? for like 4 months?
quartz kindle
yes, amazon has a free for 1 year plan i think, and google cloud also has a free plan
acoustic oracle
season runs 3-4 months depending if we make playoffs or not
quartz kindle
my bot runs in google cloud
acoustic oracle
similar to azure i presume?
quartz kindle
yes
in essence, you're going to get a VPS, a virtual server to which you can connect to using a command line connection such as SSH
and in that server you're going to install the software you need
now there are many ways to connect to discord, and many different languages to work with, so you need to chose your environment
for example, i use node.js and javascript, someone else might use python, or .NET, etc..

Stupid question but, is there a list of permissions like MANAGE_MESSAGES anywhere for discord.js?
quiet bobcat
There are on the docs

Yea look in docs for Permission flags

Easiest way would be to just hide a bunch of characters under it
spring ember
That's naughty
native narwhal
Well you can't really do much else can you 👀
spring ember
U can also put 300 letters with style: visible: false
ornate kiln
I just put images (long URLs)
stiff stratus
😂
spring ember
Images with sha512 on their name 
stiff stratus
Why don't you put something that describe your bot...:? 😂
stiff stratus
I know you have the frame, but... 😂
frail harbor
Why describe your bot, when you just put the Bots' website
hearty tulip
¯_(ツ)_/¯
native narwhal
Put something secret which leads to another secret which leads to another secret which leads to 20 other secrets
spring ember
In the 300 chars
topaz fjord
Lmao
hearty tulip
lmao
topaz fjord
Or just customize your bot pag with css
spring ember
Which leads to joakims discord
stiff stratus
Cause if your webpage fails, (for any reason), other people will know what your bot do... xD
topaz fjord
That's how I get my 300
frail harbor
I just added style="border:0px #ffffff none;" name="nerobot" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" marginheight="0px" marginwidth="0px" height="720px" width="1240px" allowfullscreen to the iframe tag
and it hit the 300 character mark
spring ember
Lmao
topaz fjord
Ok
frail harbor
But my websites' link is a tad long
frail harbor
If you really want, just whack ?thisisjustmeextendingthelengthofmyurlsoithitsthe300charactermarkrequiredforthissite to the end of your URL 
hearty tulip
lol
topaz fjord
Or a base64 string for embeding a image
earnest phoenix
Ok so I know how to add like these things now but how do I add the image like
like this one

earnest phoenix
How do I add the big image using python

Have you tried looking at the documentation for the library?

hahahahahahh
frail harbor
Looks fine

frail harbor
Thats why I asked why'd you hide the link
stiff stratus
😂
frail harbor
There's no point 
hearty tulip

Quick thing; please do something about the colour on the commands page
Gray blends in too much w/ the background
Also !clap has the wrong usage. !calp instead of !clap

hearty tulip
wut
frail harbor
admin already comes with the other permissions
topaz fjord
I don't trust people enough to send them my website
hearty tulip
LOL
topaz fjord
Because they always inspect element to see how I did it
topaz fjord
And then they probs steal it
hearty tulip
lol
topaz fjord
I only give to some people
hearty tulip
u can make so it blocks the right clicks
frail harbor
oh man
topaz fjord
Chrome had Ctrl shift i
frail harbor
i got your sites code

No commercial use
hearty tulip
LMAO
topaz fjord
I want one that's no use at all
topaz fjord
Did u do bots on me name
hearty tulip
i can share my website beacuse no one wil lne ver waste their time trying to steal that 💩
lol
topaz fjord
If it was I would credit the template artist
hearty tulip
omg why it's white 😦
frail harbor
cause white is clean boi
frail harbor
and then theres my piece of shit
topaz fjord
Just doesn't look like that

been focusing too much on the discord login integration then anything else
hearty tulip
wat site is that @frail harbor

¯_(ツ)_/¯
hearty tulip
ftw

-.-
frail harbor
It's not easily possible to make a Discord login system w/ just HTML
I mean you can
but you'll also need to use jQuery, among other libraries
hearty tulip
i can add and js
frail harbor
And then your Client and Secret is exposed
hearty tulip
┬─┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)
frail harbor
Theres the login code

ruby dust
in discord.py, is there a way to change the bot's presence synchronized with the bot application going online? the on_connect event is not doing it fast enough
low rivet
@ruby dust rewrite or async?
ruby dust
rewrite
low rivet
in rewrite, you can pass activity as a kwarg into bot.run
ruby dust
as well as changing status?
low rivet
what do you mean?
ruby dust
discord.Status
low rivet
um... dont think so..
update your rewrite to the latest version
# Setting `Playing ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Game(name="a game"))
# Setting `Streaming ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Streaming(name="My Stream", url=my_twitch_url))
# Setting `Listening ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.listening, name="a song"))
# Setting `Watching ` status
await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="a movie"))
ActivityType enum: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/rewrite/discord/enums.py#L216-L221
Activity class: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/rewrite/discord/activity.py#L80-L128
new stuff

oh lol not sure

So I have my bot running on two APIs, I'm having trouble letting my bot be able to reply to commands from I made in discordjs and others I made using the 2nd API
It only replies to commands made on the 2nd API but when I add a command for example I add a help command in my discord.js it doesn't read it :/
mental solstice
we will probably need to see some of the code
earnest phoenix
@mental solstice hey, could i ask you for some help?
earnest phoenix
i added a mute command to my bot, and it does not run. their is no error or anything.
if(command === "mute") {
if(!msg.member.roles.some(r=>["Assisting Coder", "Server Administrator", "Devs", "Head Administrator"].includes(r.name)) )
return msg.reply("Sorry, you don't have permissions to use mute command! You need to be null or higher! [#446679015999406081](/guild/264445053596991498/channel/446679015999406081/)")
}
if (msg.mentions.users.size === 0) {
return msg.reply("Please mentionned an user to mute/unmute")
}
if (!msg.guild.member(bot.user).hasPermission("BAN_MEMBERS")) {
return message.reply("The bot need to have perm BAN_MEMBERS to do this")
}
let mutedRole = msg.guild.roles.find('name', 'Muted')
let member = msg.guild.member(msg.mentions.users.first())
if(!member.roles.find('name','Muted')){
member.addRole('438780003883155497').then(addRole => msg.channel.send(`The user ${params[0]} is now muted`)).catch(console.err)
console.log(`The user "${msg.mentions.users.first().username}" has been muted from the server ${msg.guild.name}`)
}else{
member.removeRole('438780003883155497').then(removeRole => msg.channel.send(`The user ${params[0]} is now unmuted`)).catch(console.err)
console.log(`The user "${msg.mentions.users.first().username}" has been unmuted from the server ${msg.guild.name}`)
}
}```@mental solstice and it comes down to that
What do you need to see? Because I have a lot
mental solstice
is there no prefix mike? or is that added in command variable?
earnest phoenix
the perfix is"/"
mental solstice
does your code know that?
tall falcon
That's very clean @earnest phoenix mine if I skid?
mental solstice
it says command === "mute"
tall falcon
@earnest phoenix did you do npm update
Lots of people forget to do that after making changes
mental solstice
are you using an ide by chance? im not very familiar with JS, and im not gonna look up all that stuff in docs 😃
earnest phoenix
discord.js
mental solstice
ide.. like VSCode? or are u just using a text editor
tall falcon
So if the person is an "Administrator" reply "Sorry, you don't have permission to use mute command!...."?
earnest phoenix
text editor
mental solstice
Erud he has the ! operator, which checks for a false bool
tall falcon
Oh okay I had a feeling I was looking at it wrong
earnest phoenix
@tall falcon no, when listing roles, and below it says "if'' means anything but the roles listed
mental solstice
nothing in that if (command === "mute") condition gets called?
and you have another working command if (command ===" othercmd") the code inside that works?
earnest phoenix
yes, but random user does not get role
mental solstice
oh
earnest phoenix
yeah (command === "clear")
mental solstice
if(!member.roles.find('name','Muted')){
member.addRole('438780003883155497').then(addRole => msg.channel.send(`The user ${params[0]} is now muted`)).catch(console.err)
console.log(`The user "${msg.mentions.users.first().username}" has been muted from the server ${msg.guild.name}`)
}else{
so your issue is in that code block?
earnest phoenix
i believe so
earnest phoenix
let me re-try
mental solstice
that could be why youre not getting an error, atleast
earnest phoenix
nvm, a member of the team fix it
mental solstice
👍
