#

no

#

use client.emit

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 12:21 AM

#

also use canvas-constructor

#

its nice 😩

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 12:21 AM

#

<client>.emit('guildMemberAdd', msg.member);

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 12:21 AM

#

oh yea

#

that is a thing

uncut slate Jul 26, 2018, 12:21 AM

#

${__dirname}/../assets/welcome.jpg also works

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 12:25 AM

#

@sick cloud it still doesn't work and ive used both samaurai and aetheryx's solutions to test it:

📎 Capture.PNG

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 12:26 AM

#

maybe dont use client.emit

#

lets see what happens

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 12:29 AM

#

client.emit is the same as the event going off normally

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 12:30 AM

#

either way it still gives me the same error

#

whoops it ghot through that part

#

thgeres another section giving an error

#

@earnest phoenix use canvas-constructor

#

its faster xd

#

what is canvas-constructor?

#

google

#

nrn

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

It's a library made to interact with canvas

https://www.hastebin.com/asadihuzuz.js I need help changing this so Mysql my orginal plan was to do sqlite but i forgot how to create a database so im using Mysql

#

<

#

can someone please help me

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:34 AM

#

also sqlite by opening the database it create automatically the file/db if it doesn't exist

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:44 AM

#

Yea

#

but

#

Wait @eager spoke wdym?

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

for example in the command line, if you type sqlite file.db then file.db will be created (and know you have to CREATE TABLE)

stray wasp Jul 26, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

Hel did you get your name from the German movie btw?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

I have a Database with Mysql

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

I have that name since 2005-7 xD

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

but the create tbale thing

#

i can't figure out

#

CREATE TABLE reportdev();

#

that no work

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_create_table.asp

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

Wait

#

no

#

my problem is

#

idk what to put in the ()

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

what are you making the table for

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

ohhhh, you don't know how to design your database? x)

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

CREATE TABLE reportdev(whathere);

#

Yea

#

I have the Db file

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

also what's in your report?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:49 AM

#

I am

#

making a bug, issure,improvement and other thing report command

#

and I need a database

#

so the command can fetch from the database

#

and send the report to a channel in the support server

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:50 AM

#

would put something like id integer primary key, user_id integer not null, label text not null, issue text not null, resolved integer default 0

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:51 AM

#

https://www.hastebin.com/omujuyodew.js

#

thats command

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:52 AM

#

wait

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

hm?

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 2:57 AM

#

would put something likesql CREATE TABLE report IF NOT EXISTS (id integer primary key autoincrement, user_id integer not null, label text not null, issue text not null, timestamp integer not null, resolved integer default 0);
maybe that

#

where id => issue id (autoincremented)
user_id => the discord id of the user that make the report
label => issue, bug, etc
issue => the second question, also the detailled
timestamp => for calculating the time of the issue
resolved (boolean if you have already inspect and/or resolve the issue (also you could make a code like 0 => nothing, 1 => read, 2 => resolved, 3 => declined, etc)
@earnest phoenix

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:00 AM

#

Whats that for

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:01 AM

#

you could extend your feature by letting you respond through the bot to the user in private message, for searching not resolved issue (with SELECT statement)

#

make statistic etc

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:02 AM

#

sooo

#

wait

#

i dont get it

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:02 AM

#

what you don't get it?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:03 AM

#

Everything

#

about that

#

last one

#

do I put that

#

in the create table thing?

#

https://gyazo.com/e3e32c21e1d7299d096717feda11c3b0

Gyazo

#

this

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:04 AM

#

ok wait make an error

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:04 AM

#

huh?

#

you want me to mess up

#

what you told me to put

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:07 AM

#

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS report(id integer primary key autoincrement, 
user_id integer not null,
label text not null, 
issue text not null,
timestamp integer not null,
resolved integer default 0);```

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:07 AM

#

that is literally

#

what it was before

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

nah make an error i wrote CREATE TABLE table_name IF NOT EXISTS instead of CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS table_name

#

~~sorry it's something late for me x)~~

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:09 AM

#

same

#

8pm

#

o.O

#

i stayed up from

#

2am to 8pm already

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:10 AM

#

it's 5am x)

#

also, did it work? 👀

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

also with sqlite3 it works on my side

#

oh, you're using mysql

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

Yes

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

mysql is a little bit different xd

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:17 AM

#

Yea

#

Do you know how to use it?

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:17 AM

#

yeah

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 3:17 AM

#

Ok thank god xD

#

I been looking for almost 3 hours now

eager spoke Jul 26, 2018, 3:22 AM

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS report(

that should be good @earnest phoenix

#

also i'm going to bed, if you have other question, ping me or dm me
good night

turbid tiger Jul 26, 2018, 5:56 AM

#

I'm using discord.js. When I use message.member.setNickname('myNicknameGoesHere') to change someone's nickname, I get UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions as an error. I think the bot is missing permissions, but it has the higest role with all permissions granted.

bright spear Jul 26, 2018, 5:59 AM

#

@turbid tiger so the bot has the Manage Nicknames pemissions, it has the highest role, and the person is not the owner?

turbid tiger Jul 26, 2018, 5:59 AM

#

Hmm

#

I am the owner of the server, so no to the last question.

#

How do you delete ownership?

bright spear Jul 26, 2018, 6:00 AM

#

you'll have to transfer it to someone else in server settings -> members

turbid tiger Jul 26, 2018, 6:01 AM

#

Alrighty, let's see if this works then.

#

Now it's saying that it's not a function. Geez message.author.setNickname is not a function

bright spear Jul 26, 2018, 6:05 AM

#

its member not author

turbid tiger Jul 26, 2018, 6:09 AM

#

Stupid question: how about changing it for a different player? Say const player = message.mentions.users.first();, how could I change player's nickname?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 6:28 AM

#

Hey all! I was wondering would anyone have any recommendations for good vps (affordable too)?

#

As much as I like to stay on free, i think it’s time for me to move to a paid vps

uncut slate Jul 26, 2018, 6:29 AM

#

GalaxyGate is pretty good rn

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 6:35 AM

#

@uncut slate hows the ping to discord?

uncut slate Jul 26, 2018, 6:35 AM

#

15-30ms

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 6:36 AM

#

that's not bad..

#

for a 100 server, would $8 be enough?

uncut slate Jul 26, 2018, 6:42 AM

#

more than enough

#

I run 6 bots on my $10 droplet with plenty of room to spare

#

about 90% CPU and 50% RAM free

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 6:45 AM

#

Oh wow six bots? D: that’s a lot...

#

May I please have a link to your bot on dbl?

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 6:47 AM

#

yee my bot has 3k servers and still runs on a 10$ VPS

#

and quite not the cheapest one out there

#

bots don't need much

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:06 AM

#

Do you guys ask for donations and such?

#

to pay for the vps and all

ebon bolt Jul 26, 2018, 7:09 AM

#

My VPS is $5/month. No need to ask for donations I’ll just cut back on a coffee per month.

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 7:10 AM

#

I don't. then again I don't pay for my VPS

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:14 AM

#

I don’t feel good about asking for donations tbh

#

May I ask where do you host it on?

ebon bolt Jul 26, 2018, 7:14 AM

#

digital ocean

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:14 AM

#

Oh yeah!! I heard a lot of good things about them

ebon bolt Jul 26, 2018, 7:15 AM

#

Yeah, they’re really great.

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 7:59 AM

#

i pay my vps entirely with donations personally

chrome meteor Jul 26, 2018, 7:59 AM

#

DO is nice because if you're a student and haven't used DO before you can get $50 worth of credit there

#

through the github student pack

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:04 AM

#

Why isn't this working?

const m = await msg.channel.messages.filter(m=>m.id==='471944000576684035');

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:08 AM

#

why do you await it

#

msg.channel.messages is a collection right

#

using filter won't return a promise

#

though it should still work ZoomEyes

#

also what are you trying to do, find a specific message?

#

( @sick cloud ) hi

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:16 AM

#

edit an embed in a bots message @heady zinc

#

i made a mistake on an embed so i'm trying to edit it

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:16 AM

#

?

#

so you are trying to find a specific message

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:16 AM

#

yeah and then edit it

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

remember that filter doesn't return the message in question

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

oh

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

it returns an array of messages that matched the filter

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

so use .first()?

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

you'd prefer using messages.find()

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

oh

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

or even .get() actually

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

get failed

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

because messages are mapped by their id

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

         message.edit(stuff)```

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

if get failed that mean the message isn't in the cache

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

that should work

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

so you'd have to fetch the message

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

oh

#

how do i fetch it

#

Thonk

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

there should be a <channel>.fetchMessage() method

#

i can't look at the docs right now but iirc that's its name

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:19 AM

#

You can also do

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:20 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

doesn't seem to be a fetchMessage there

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:20 AM

#

       sentM.edit("Edited")
});```

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:20 AM

#

no

#

the message is already sent

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:20 AM

#

m

#

use the search feature

#

might be bound to the guild or the client

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:21 AM

#

search?

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:21 AM

#

search bar on the docs

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:21 AM

#

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/DMChannel?scrollTo=fetchMessage

Discord.js

Discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:21 AM

#

nope

#

no fetchMessage

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:22 AM

#

are you using v12

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:22 AM

#

master, yeah

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:22 AM

#

oh

#

that changes stuff

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:22 AM

#

you're saying that now? lol

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:23 AM

#

i mean

#

i thought people could guess

#

since v11 doesn't have a usable MessageEmbed

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

well i assume everyone uses the stable build

cinder patio Jul 26, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

^

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

because that's best practice

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

master way better tho

#

but kek

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:26 AM

#

wtf

#

where are the methods to fetch messages

#

oh wait

#

i see

#

indeed that's how it works in v12 i forgot

#

msg.channel.messages.fetch() @sick cloud

#

returns a promise

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:28 AM

#

so await that?

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:28 AM

#

ye

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:29 AM

#

ayy that worked

#

thanks <3

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:29 AM

#

honestly ablobsweats

#

v12 is so different from v11

#

devs on v11 will have a hard time updating

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:30 AM

#

yeah

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:33 AM

#

v11 devs are silly tbh

#

but a lot of it will just be find+replacing stuff

#

find: message.channel.fetchMessage
replace: message.channel.messages.fetch

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:34 AM

#

i mean

#

the silly ones are d.js devs

#

they just don't have any clue of when to release something

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:35 AM

#

check pins

#

E

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:35 AM

#

one fucking year

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:35 AM

#

why does it matter when v12 is released

#

it's already pretty stable on master

#

i would consider it to already be released, it's just a matter of fixing bugs

#

like a beta version i suppose

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:36 AM

#

"pretty stable" is not acceptable for production in big bots

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:36 AM

#

i used v12 for the longest time and i had no issues with it

#

the only real issue i had was recently but that was due to an issue with snekfetch

#

honestly paradox

#

what is wrong with d.js

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:37 AM

#

nothing

#

it's an honorable lib

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:37 AM

#

yes

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:37 AM

#

with the biggest community over all discord libs

#

the whole one year to release v12 is fucked tho

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:37 AM

#

i would agree

#

i dont know what they're doing

#

not like it matters to me anymore mmLol

#

however i would consider v12 to almost be a rewrite

#

not a full on rewrite but it changes a lot of stuff backend

#

for the better

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:39 AM

#

i mean ye it is rewrite

#

wouldn't increment semver major otherwise

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:39 AM

#

GWchadThonkery

#

i mean

#

major doesn't always have to be a rewrite

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:40 AM

#

in most cases

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:40 AM

#

in an ideal world you wouldn't need to rewrite your software that often

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:42 AM

#

i mean

#

that much rewrites is the proof of an ever-improving lib

#

~~or just hydra being a meme~~

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:43 AM

#

i would lean towards the latter JUSTLOL

#

i suppose development has shifted heavily since v9

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:45 AM

#

v12 looks like the ultimate form of what d.js tried to achieve until now

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:45 AM

#

yeah

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:46 AM

#

you just have to understand how to read the docs

#

and there you go

#

d.js pretty much does everything for you

#

it's not really a wrapper for discord's api anymore

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:46 AM

#

the docs are incredible for d.js

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:46 AM

#

ye

#

d.js is incredible too

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:46 AM

#

wym its not a wrapper for discords api

#

i would disagree

#

GWchadThinkeyes

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:47 AM

#

it's more of a wrapper for the entire bot development process

#

it does so much things not directly related to the api

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:47 AM

#

i guess

#

d.js music will never be good

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:48 AM

#

i mean just have to use lavalink

#

not that much bothersome

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:48 AM

#

tbh lavalink was big pain for me to set up the first time i used it

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:48 AM

#

same

#

i failed first time

#

but now im enjoying it happy

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:49 AM

#

its also very memory heavy for some reason

#

like

#

it would use more than my bot

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:51 AM

#

well ofc

#

it is music after all

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:51 AM

#

not acceptable

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:51 AM

#

why is lavalink better

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:51 AM

#

i want 1kb music!!!!!

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:51 AM

#

my first lavalink node takes half of the ram my bot use

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:52 AM

#

@sick cloud better quality and it's java based

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:52 AM

#

well

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:52 AM

#

well yourself paradox

#

we all know you're well

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:52 AM

#

the main thing is that it does most of the job for you

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:53 AM

#

the only reason i got it is because the quality is 10 times better and it's less prone to errors

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:53 AM

#

you don't have to go through the pain of figuring out how to download youtube, soundcloud or twitch livestreams and stream them

#

lavalink does it for you

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:53 AM

#

ew java

#

but ohk

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

but yeah the thing is lavalink will at least on my side still use ~250mb of ram even without streaming anything

#

the upside of that is that the ram usage won't grow much with a lot of streams

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

true

#

what a genius

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

250mb of ram is nothing Thonk

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

What

#

i mean

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

~~especially when you got 40gb to use~~
its pretty small

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

it's noticeable on small-scale bots

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

iDEALLY you'd like it to not use that much

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

my giveaway bot uses 200mb to just idle :V

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

i'd even say its noticeable on medium sized bots

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

true

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

then again what counts as medium

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

my discord.py isnt working XD

#

rip

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

what about it isn't working

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:55 AM

#

medium is the thing before big

#

and after smol

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:56 AM

#

i would say medium is like

#

2 or more shards maybe

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

thats biased

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:56 AM

#

eh

#

that'd fit my bot size

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:56 AM

#

so 400 servers would be considered small

#

right?

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:56 AM

#

i would say so

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:56 AM

#

ye

#

imo i would consider anything from 0 to 10000 small

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

lmfao

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

10000-80000 medium

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

every bot is small mmLol

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

and the rest big fat asses

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

do you know how many have 10000+

#

i don't think it's that high

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

ok

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:57 AM

#

ofc

#

it's not that easy to have a popular bot actually

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:58 AM

#

only with the right advertising kek

sick cloud Jul 26, 2018, 8:58 AM

#

i gtg so bye you ~~weebs~~ peoples waves

#

and ty for the help before

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:58 AM

#

bye

#

i think the problem with bots these days is its like a job application

#

people just look at your resume (your description) and if it's not good enough, you're out

#

they'll also consider server size and shit

#

since they don't have the time to look at the whole full description for every bot

#

they just look at the front cover

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:59 AM

#

well

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:59 AM

#

STOP WELLING

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 8:59 AM

#

the problem is that there's too much bots

#

obviously

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 8:59 AM

#

yes

#

too many

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:00 AM

#

that's the thing i don't like with d.js

#

it's too easy

#

and then it just overflows the market with bad boats

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 9:00 AM

#

yes

#

isn't pokecord still in d.js?

#

that's impressive

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:01 AM

#

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 9:01 AM

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:01 AM

#

he's annoyed by the ridiculous ram usage of d.js lul

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 9:01 AM

#

good guy miles

#

i dont blame him lmfao

#

128+gb of ram would fuck me off too

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:01 AM

#

bitter sundial Jul 26, 2018, 9:01 AM

#

if the module is easy to use its a good module isnt it

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:02 AM

#

it is

#

there's downsides to everything

#

doesn't mean d.js is bad

spring ember Jul 26, 2018, 9:02 AM

#

it is just not scalable

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 9:02 AM

#

sigh my bot is never gonna get commands into it r.i.p

#

bot

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:02 AM

#

well

#

d.js does its job

#

its mainly meant to be easy to use and introduce you into the world of bots

#

though it was supposed to be scalable at first

#

at least that's what i assume from the shards spawned as child processes

bitter sundial Jul 26, 2018, 9:12 AM

#

but how can you hate the module for what makes it good 🤔

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:12 AM

#

i don't hate the module

#

i never said that

bitter sundial Jul 26, 2018, 9:12 AM

#

well

#

"not like"

heady zinc Jul 26, 2018, 9:12 AM

#

i said that was a side i didn't liked

#

or well

#

not quite accurate

i don't like the consequences of it

wild tide Jul 26, 2018, 11:10 AM

Honestly, discord.js shouldn't become a meme, or recognised as what newb devs use to make useless bots. discord.js is definitely the easiest, and is the perfect starter point for new developers. But if you put effort into learning JavaScript fully, discord.js is as capable as any other API wrapper. Not every bot that new developers make are bad every time, though most tend to be small bots that only solve a small area of Discord usability, or are just useless completely. The outcome of the bot shows with how much effort you decide to put in. Crap bots only take >1 hour approx. to make. Putting in effort for a good bot, and setting up proper updating and supporting systems will take 1 week or more. I use discord.js since I find JavaScript the most universal language, and you have access to things like npm, which are really helpful with running on VPS and installing modules easier, as well as there being a larger range.

Thats my opinion on discord.js. Honestly, whatever discord.js can do, pretty much all of the others can too.

#

so what's a shard?

#

apparently my bot has shards

#

apparently bots can have shards*

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

Sharding is something you need to look into when your bot reaches 2.5k guilds ( you should look into it with 1.5k)

patent tinsel Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

yeah i have 11 so i think i'm a bit off

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

ye

slender thistle Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

Shards basically split the bot's performance into several processes for better performance.

#

~~Something like that.~~

patent tinsel Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

ooh

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

nah

#

thats kinda incorrect

slender thistle Jul 26, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

Is it? My bad then.

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 11:39 AM

#

@wild tide if you check pins there's an unbiased description of both eris and d.js

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:39 AM

#

Sharding is required from Discord to split the load in the main Websocket connection up into multiple connections, single threaded languages like js often use something like that to also loadbalance the bot and split it into multiple processes since thats the only way to use more than 1 CPU core

slender thistle Jul 26, 2018, 11:40 AM

#

Oh.

#

I was getting it wrong.

#

Thanks.

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:41 AM

#

if your bot reaches 2.5k guilds you need to have atleast 2 websocket connections where each Shard has his own websocket connection and handles an amount of the total guilds from your bot

#

so each own WS connection is a Shard

slender thistle Jul 26, 2018, 11:42 AM

#

Got it.

#

Thanks.

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:42 AM

#

thumbsUp

#

you dont need to worry about that before ~1.5k guilds

slender thistle Jul 26, 2018, 11:43 AM

#

~~I am far from that, either way.~~ :^)

restive silo Jul 26, 2018, 11:43 AM

#

with 2.5k you are forced to shard or you can't connect to the Discord API

hey, stupid question

#

what's the benefit of workspaces?

#

i just edit raw JS files rn, i have a few separate for a few different things, but it's raw JS with no workspace

#

and i see people with VS code working in workspaces and i imagine there's efficiency with doing so

austere meadow Jul 26, 2018, 11:53 AM

#

i'd also like to know the answer
it can be helpful when working on different projects but i don't think it's really that important

#

i'd presume it'd be for those people who are really proactive about their productivity and organization

Never heard of that method.

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 PM

There's message.member.roles.some

gilded blaze Jul 26, 2018, 2:48 PM

#

Well the some method only checks if the channel will meet a criteria.

#

It will return a boolean.

#

You probably want to get the channel which would mean using a method like forEach

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 2:49 PM

#

That might work. I just need a channel to send welcome messages to

#

And it's not the same for everyone

Ick

gilded blaze Jul 26, 2018, 2:50 PM

includes is for arrays and other lists

I think

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 4:11 PM

It is

#

You use it to check if a value exists in an array

It can also be used to check if something is in a string.

discord.js has a property to check if users have a certain permission

obtuse wind Jul 26, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

would it be (!msg.author.hasPermission((etc)))

topaz fjord Jul 26, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildMember?scrollTo=hasPermission

Discord.js

Discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

obtuse wind Jul 26, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

oh thanks

topaz fjord Jul 26, 2018, 7:37 PM

np

obtuse wind Jul 26, 2018, 7:39 PM

@ruby dust i got it

how do i use it?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:45 PM

just like any other vps

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:46 PM

but it doesnt have VM like the windows interface and i dont know how to use it

#

google is ur best friend

#

XD

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:46 PM

#

well you asked about skysilk specifically, so the question "how to use a vps" would be more relevant in this case

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:47 PM

#

mm.m

#

i dont think skyslik has VM XD

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:50 PM

#

you create a container and choose OS you want for your VM

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:50 PM

#

like CentOS 7

#

?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:51 PM

#

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:51 PM

ok ill use that too

the VMs aren't graphical

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:54 PM

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:54 PM

nearly any OS you'll choose will be interactable by a terminal

#

how do i add files then?

#

and add all the stuff?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:54 PM

#

you use something for transfering files

#

I use FileZilla Client

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:55 PM

#

ahhh

#

do i have to add a ssh key?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:55 PM

#

iirc ssh key is only used to access root

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:56 PM

#

will i need root?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:56 PM

#

but you do have to create a private key with putty's key generator

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:56 PM

#

yesi do

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:56 PM

#

root is like admin access on windows

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:56 PM

#

nvm

#

i have a public one

#

XD

#

@ruby dust what does the root do?

#

like download npm if needed?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 7:59 PM

#

read my previous message

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 7:59 PM

#

thats all?

#

how would i download npm?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:00 PM

#

initially you won't have any users registered on your machine

#

so you'll need root to create some

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:00 PM

#

in terminal nvm i know

#

XD

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:00 PM

#

unless you want to run programs on root

#

which I doubt it's a good option

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:00 PM

#

XD

#

is the host

#

the name

#

?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:01 PM

#

it's basically running programs with admin access, which you then generally trust the program to not mess up with your machine's system files

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:01 PM

#

waht would be the host name?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:01 PM

#

any name you want

#

your machine name, I guess

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:02 PM

#

ok let me test

it cant connect to the server XD

#

on filezilla

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:03 PM

#

do you have a private key?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:03 PM

#

i have a ssh key from putty key gen

#

the type is RSA

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

make sure you make it look something like that

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

is that on putty keygen?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

that's on filezilla 🤔

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

what would be the host tho?

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

the key file should be a path to your ssh key

#

your server's ip

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

and the password is the password i made

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

there is no password

#

I mean, the password is the one you made for your key

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

ahhh

#

it cant connect XD

#

im so confused XD

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:07 PM

#

well, google might help you then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

ok

#

one morequestion

#

was will the port be

#

If I use snekfetch to get a response like this, how can I get memes[0].url

{ "success": true, "data": { "memes": [ { "id": "61579", "name": "One Does Not Simply", "url": "http://i.imgflip.com/1bij.jpg", "width": 568, "height": 335 }, { "id": "101470", "name": "Ancient Aliens", "url": "http://i.imgflip.com/26am.jpg", "width": 500, "height": 437 } // probably a lot more memes here.. ] } }

#

finally got in

#

@ruby dust it gave me a warning that it might not be my computer

#

like the vps

do i ignorethat

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:13 PM

#

I never got that Thonk

screenshot?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 8:13 PM

#

i already done it

#

it says if you want to trust the host

ruby dust Jul 26, 2018, 8:13 PM

#

oh wait, I think I do remember

#

if you first time log into the server it'd ask if you trust the host

#

yeah that's normal

slender thistle Jul 26, 2018, 8:36 PM

How to tell when a user updates his/her avatar?

#

const Discord = require("discord.js")

module.exports.run = async (bot, message, args) => {
  message.channel.send("Griffin....").then(Message => {
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I am sorry..."); }, 5000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I never meant to hurt you..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I just wanted to make you happy..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I guess I failed at that..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("Seems how we are no longer friends..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I am sorry for what I did..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("You mean a lot too me and I was foolish..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I lost you and I lost a little bit of me too..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("Please forgive me..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("Let's be friends like we used to before all that happened..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("Even if we can't..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("I still care about you..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setInterval((fn, delay, ...args) => { Message.edit("Always will :heart:"); }, 8000);
  });
}

module.exports.help = {
  name: "sorry"
}

#

can someone please help me

#

after a certain point

#

it speeds up

#

and doesn't wait

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 11:09 PM

#

GWqlabsHyperSweats

#

that code looks so messy

#

also @earnest phoenix ratelimit

#

its trying to edit the message at the exact interval

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

ratelimit?

#

How can I fix it

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

yea

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

I want it to do it

#

after waiting

#

8 seconds

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

all of them cant be 8 seconds

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:11 PM

#

Oh

#

yea

#

that would be

#

smart to change huh

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 11:11 PM

#

yes

#

also your doing setInterval

#

and not setTimeout

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:12 PM

#

Oh yea

#

I should change that too ><

#

const Discord = require("discord.js")

module.exports.run = async (bot, message, args) => {
  message.channel.send("Griffin....").then(Message => {
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I am sorry..."); }, 3000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I never meant to hurt you..."); }, 5000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I just wanted to make you happy..."); }, 6000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I guess I failed at that..."); }, 4000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("Seems how we are no longer friends..."); }, 6000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I am sorry for what I did..."); }, 4000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("You mean a lot too me and I was foolish..."); }, 6000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I lost you and I lost a little bit of me too..."); }, 7000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("Please forgive me..."); }, 4000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("Let's be friends like we used to before all that happened..."); }, 8000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("Even if we can't..."); }, 4000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("I still care about you..."); }, 5000);
    bot.setTimeout(() => { Message.edit("Always will :heart:"); }, 4000);
  });
}

module.exports.help = {
  name: "sorry"
}

#

Like that?

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:14 PM

#

why are you trying to edit many times at the same time?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:14 PM

#

huh....

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:14 PM

#

like

#

settimeout will not wait until one has finished

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

Why

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

all timeouts will be executed immediatelly

#

and place a timer

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

are people telling me different shit everythime :/

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

so all timeouts that you have with 4000, will all run at the same time after 4 seconds

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

:/

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

@earnest phoenix if you did setinterval once you run the command the bot will always try to edit the message

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

I just want to fix this ugh

knotty steeple Jul 26, 2018, 11:15 PM

#

until you stop it

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:16 PM

#

This is getting so complicated ><

#

SO many people

#

have told me something different

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:17 PM

#

timeout 500;
timeout 500

// all 3 time outs will go at the same time after 500ms

timeout 500;
timeout 600;
timeout 700;

// one will go after 500ms, the next one after 600ms, the next one after 700ms. a waiting time of 100ms bewteen each one```

#

the timer for all timeouts is set immediatelly

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:17 PM

#

So wait

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:17 PM

#

in js there is no such thing as waiting for a function to finish

#

only promises and async functions can "wait"

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:17 PM

#

Oh ok

#

Also

#

do I just take out

#

bot.setTimeout(() =>

#

?

#

that

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:18 PM

#

you can do 2 things

#

either timeout 3000; timeout 8000; //3000+5000 timeout 14000; //3000+5000+6000 etc... or timeout(timeout(timeout(6000), 5000), 3000) etc...

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:20 PM

#

ummmmmm

#

idk

#

How would I even use that?

#

Would i have to put it at the end

#

of each message edit?

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:21 PM

#

it doesnt matter how you do it as long as you understand the concept

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:21 PM

#

yea

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:21 PM

#

if you want to wait for a timeout to finish before you do the next timeout, you have to put the timout one inside each other

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:21 PM

#

it is supposed to delay right?

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:21 PM

#

or you make all timeouts at once, but have their timers work in the sequence you want

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:22 PM

#

<

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:22 PM

#

for example if you want to wait 5 seconds, you do the first at 5000, and the second one at 10000

#

so there is a 5 second delay between them

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:22 PM

#

Oh ok

#

so wait

#

    Message.edit("I lost you and I lost a little bit of me too...")
    timeout 5000;

#

like that?

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:23 PM

#

no...

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2018, 11:23 PM

#

oh...

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2018, 11:23 PM

#

i just did it to show you
