When I uploaded my bot to a Linux server, it lost the ability to play audio files. Any reason for this?
NodeJS and NPM versions are not the interference.
gilded blaze
You probably had some external dependencies which need to be installed on your Linux server
kindred jewel
If I were running my bot from the command line on a windows desktop, is it possible to have it execute autohotkey scripts? is it possible to do that through javascript at all?
I was thinking, if it was running off a dedicated pc and that was possible - it would open up many many possibilities
zealous veldt
I think if there is an AHK CLI, you could use an exec
kindred jewel
Well here's one thing I was thinking you could do with that, if you had a bunch of small ahk scripts and you executed them in the correct order you could make the bot do something like, open up mspaint, copy paste some different images onto the canvas, type up some text boxes on top etc, save the image and then post that into the chat of the server your in, you could potentially communicate everything to the users with fancy looking images, instead of just using text / embeds or whatever
gilded blaze
That sounds like canvas, but way harder
kindred jewel
whats canvas? 99% of my coding experience before learning this stuff is making C# unity games
gilded blaze
https://www.npmjs.com/package/canvas pretty nice
kindred jewel
oh so this does pretty much exactly what I was thinking of?
cool 😃 ill look into it

restive silo
@kindred jewel if you know C# why not make a bot in that lang?
kindred jewel
Can I do that? I hate javascript already, but ive already coded a whole music bot with it as a learning exercise lol
rustic axle
Yeah its just that there is more docs on Discord.js
restive silo
the biggest one is Discord.Net
rustic axle
Than there is for Discord.net
restive silo
yea but if you know C# then you get easily into Discord.Net
and it also has docs
even tho they aren't always up to date
@kindred jewel if you wanna do image manipulation in C# i would recommend https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET
these are C# bindings to ImageMagick whats a popular image manipulation lib written in C
kindred jewel
damn, thank you guys so much 😄
restive silo
👍
even tho i agree d.js has mostly the best docs thats no reason to not use a langauge you already know since you can do way more in a langauge you are familiar with already then some new lang

why do you have a 50gb json lmao

is it absolutely necessary to shard your bot once it hits over 2.5k?

Dude, I don't even know this and I knew that....

In fact it uses more

Use discordjs
carmine echo
I do use discord.js. I didn't like the fact that it used 120mb of ram for a simple bot though (which just deletes a message if it has the correct words in it). I thought eris'd use less ram. It uses 90mb. Totally worth all the time I put into it /s @earnest phoenix

Any idea how to debug this? Trace doesn't show the origin of the exception.
earnest phoenix
It's because it's at the API level
The error clearly says: your bot is missing permissions
lucid iris
What permissions would commonly be required?
earnest phoenix
It depends on what your doing
lucid iris
...does it need the kick members permission to make itself leave a server?
Doesn't make much sense but I'm out of ideas.
earnest phoenix
When in doubt, just give the bot full permissions
lucid iris
That's not fixing the issue; it's avoiding it 
lucid iris
It does set its own activity; does this need an additional permission?
this.queryBot.user.setActivity("!help | " + this.queryBot.guilds.size + " servers", { type: 'LISTENING' }).then();
earnest phoenix
no. and that is not per server so how would it be... lol
lucid iris
Oh, right
I'm overthinking this already
Don't have a clue where the issue might lie
earnest phoenix
add a listener for unhandled promise rejection
I think you get a proper stack trace
lucid iris
So know I know that's an option.
I've added a snippet that supposedly does that but now permission exceptions aren't being thrown 
.
Might have to check the logs after a while.
earnest phoenix
promise rejection is not an exception btw. and make sure you log everything from promise rejection listener
permissions error most likely from kick, ban, anything ur role doesnt have permissions to do
@lucid iris you don't have much to go on...
dusky delta
earnest phoenix
The API is rejecting the request because your bot application is missing a permission
lucid iris
So I need to look for something that isn't working?
So far everything seems like it does.
earnest phoenix
catch ur promise rejections and handle them
it wont fail if it has correct perms
lucid iris
Tried this:
process.on('uncaughtException', function (err) {
console.log(err);
});
...but it didn't seem to work.
I've subscribed to all promises now with error handling so hopefully I'll catch whatever's going on.
bitter sundial
uncaughtException doesn't catch unhandledRejections
lucid iris
"promise rejection is not an exception"
No wonder then uncaughtException didn't work...
north arch
@lucid iris ```js
const unhandledRejections = new Map();
process.on('exit', (code) => { console.error(forced exit of code: ${code}); });
process.on('unhandledRejection', (reason, p) => { unhandledRejections.set(p, reason); console.error(Unhandled rejection:, p, reason); });
process.on('rejectionHandled', (p) => { unhandledRejections.delete(p); console.error(Rejection handled: ${p}); });
process.on('uncaughtException', (err) => { console.error(Caught exception: ${err}); });
process.on('warning', (warning) => { console.error(Process warning: ${warning.name}\nMessage: ${warning.message}\nStack trace:\n${warning.trace}); });
throw that on the first line of ur entry file
lucid iris
Thanks, gonna make use of it..
lucid iris
Shouldn't it be Caught exception: ${error.message}
north arch
if u did
console.error(`Caught exception: `, err);
it would print the entire object
i got that code like 4 years ago
and never rly touched it

i dont use it anymore

didn't you just copied the python api desc for discordbots.org
no theres no budget

also your docs contain not only python language
you have a mixture of different languages

kk
ruby dust
@earnest phoenix if you want to make a decent bot, drop everything, learn everything about python, not just the basics, know that you aren't going to make something cool off the bat either, you will be able to play around with python and make more than just a discord bot once you'll learn enough, which won't be as soon as you think anyway
earnest phoenix
i want to use it thtas why i asked
knotty steeple
i only know python basics

Lua is actually quite similar to py from what I've seen

ruby dust
I'm never votelocking, I don't want my bot to be attached to some site, it's a discord bot after all
ruby dust
restrict commands from users that haven't voted for the bot
earnest phoenix
like coinmaster
ruby dust
I mean, I wouldn't even give bonus for that, I'm totally against my bot being attached to some site like that
if people vote for my bot I'd appreciate their support
west raptor
i mean i will only vote lock if i have to
ie. a command takes a lot of resources to do
ruby dust
it's not really a development question, but for those python users, is it better to filter words if they containt in message.content or message.content.split()?
idk how else to explain
split basically means turning a string into a list of strings, in this case separated by spaces
lusty dew
How can you make it so your cooldown works perfectly
Like when you reset bot
no one can use the command
if they used it before the reset
bright spear
stop talking in bold

Omg

also always say the lib ur using

Hey does anyone happen to know of a npm package that can search/find/fetch github repos and give metadata kthx
bright spear
rustic axle
Yeah I already tried that but I wan't something that would actually look up a repo by name or id

looks like thats what the first result does

Does a profanity filter count as autoresponses? (It says "Warning: profanity detected." upon detecting profanity) One fun thing about my filter is that it doesn't trigger on words like s__crap__ but it does trigger even if the word has spaces in the middle (e.g. c* **), a feature which most profanity filters lack.
ruby dust
Everything is an autoresponse if it doesn't have a toggle
Why do people have to make their features enabled by default
rustic axle
ie. Nightbot's auto channel commands
ruby dust
Best way of doing it is to promote your features your bot has and let those servers enable them if they want so
earnest phoenix
I have everything disabled by default with the exception of a few core commands, like help, prefix, stats
earnest phoenix
scrap
earnest phoenix
bot.on('message',message => {
if(message.content.startsWith(Prefix + "giveaway")) {
let embed = new RichEmbed()
.setTitle(`Giveaway`)
.setDescription(`React with :tada: to enter!`)
.addField(`Item`,``)
.setFooter(`Ends Wednesday , October 3rd , 2:00PM EST`)
.setColor(`RED`)
message.channel.send(embed).then(function (message) {
message.react("🎉")
})
}
})
Can anyone help me make it so when someone does >giveaway (item) it shows it on The Item Field.
sick cloud
why are you posting that
it's very clear
just set the field value to whatever arg is provided
earnest phoenix
idk how to do >giveaway (item) and make the itme show up on the Item field

there's a guide on args

Seems lit

async def servcount():
await bot.wait_until_ready()
await asyncio.sleep(10)
whilelo = 1
while whilelo > 0:
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as dblsess:
async with dblsess.post("https://discordbots.org/bots/452598458625425428/stats", json={'Authorization': 'notoken4u','server_count': len(bot.servers)})
await asyncio.sleep(900)
how does this not work? having invalid syntax errors
in this
how would i patch this?
inland latch
@earnest phoenix You send your guild count to them via a POST API. You'd put this request in a loop, and have it send the guild count every 15 mins or whatever you want.
earnest phoenix
nice i was thinking about that
inland latch
any idea why my async with is causing an error?
earnest phoenix
not sure what lang is that
inland latch
python
inland latch
how long will dbl take to process the server count?
earnest phoenix
I have a question
How does everyone in here get there bot running 24/7
I'm kinida new
uneven depot
you'd have to use something called a process manager (basically like task manager in unix-like OS's). There's like a million ways to do it. Some languages have libraries that'll do it for you.
So something like systemd or supervisor could be used to make sure bot keeps running, and restarts if it fails. It seems like python has some libraries you could pip install to achieve similar behavior, although I haven't tried them.
weak parrot
To have your bot running 24/7 it needs to be on a machine which can run 24/7. As an example a server or a VPS
hidden ginkgo
I manually process every message and command like someone in the mail service, so my bot is offline 8 hours a day.
sick cloud
👏
earnest phoenix
k
steel swallow
so my bot runs on JS
earnest phoenix
ok
steel swallow
and i wanna make custom images for things
earnest phoenix
ok
steel swallow
like what tatsumaki does for her profile
earnest phoenix
ok
steel swallow
what is a good library or can you point me in the direction on how to do it?
knotty steeple
@steel swallow canvas is better
steel swallow
yeah?
steel swallow
uh?
look. im just trying to lay some images over the top of each other to convey information
knotty steeple
well i used canvas-constructor to make my profile command and it was 😩
steel swallow
what does your profile command look like?
steel swallow
oh
my second question
so microsoft Azure
i get a free account with my uni
could i feasibly run my bot 24/7 using it?
knotty steeple
hidden ginkgo
For Java, I use an xhtml2image library which seems to work pretty well buts it's quite slow (upto 1 second), how fast are the canvas/gm images?
steel swallow
im not working with Java
hidden ginkgo
I know
quartz kindle
canvas is the best option
much faster than gm or any external library
plus, canvas is not only image manipulation, its a full drawing api, so it can do much more than any image manipulation lib

what timzone is used for the isWeekend double voting thing?

earnest phoenix
Are there any good guides on sharing a NodeJS application?
wide ruin
the code or the bot?
earnest phoenix
Both.
earnest phoenix
I need to shard my bot.
earnest phoenix
Yeah. I don't think you know. I'll wait until someone else gets on.
earnest phoenix
What's on position 268:7?
wide ruin
well is that a line or what
earnest phoenix
...
If you don't know how to read a position, I don't think you should be making a bot.
A syntax error is easy to fix.
Read the docs!
wide ruin
i have copied code from a bot with the same watch.json
(the only thing that changed)
and still wont work
split juniper
So uhhhh, my bot was kicked cause of a command with gay jokes
Does that go against the ToS?
I was told it crosses the line but it's meant to be satire
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix https://discordjs.guide/#/sharding/
split juniper
Wanted to get opinions from other devs
earnest phoenix
i reported it
lavish forge
When suicide jokes are acceptable but homophobic ones aren't.
zealous veldt
There is a difference between jokes and hate speech
One is illegal in some countries
lavish forge
Yeah. Germany is pretty hard on jokes.
Merriem. There's no such thing as satire anymore. Everyone gets offended and upset by every miniscule thing, even if it has nothing to do with them.
split juniper
I can't agree more...
But I'll follow what the mods say
since it's their job
although it does not directly terminate the ToS of discord I believe
as far as I've read
maybe it violates the ToS of DBL
which I have not fully researched
just from the channel
earnest phoenix
Hey there, is there anyway to prevent a bot to respond to another bot in discord.py rewrite?
lavish forge
I thought bots didn't typically respond to each other unless you explicitly designed it that way.
earnest phoenix
oof
lavish forge
Hmm
rich sail
need help
earnest phoenix
ok
cursive dagger
@rich sail what u need help with?
rich sail
fixed
earnest phoenix
Thank you for the contribution @cursive dagger!
I'll give credit in a update for the bot
cursive dagger
@earnest phoenix ur welcome! Hope the indent isn't broken cus I am on mobile xD
vocal yew
Can I have VoteBot readded I changed the token
sullen path
just resubmit it
earnest phoenix
thats alright, I'll use it in a new update I am working on
and it will have a credits command

I've been getting a permissions error for a few days and I've just noticed the permissions raw value on this server is different from all the others.
Is there anything I can edit on my submission on the site to get the bot to have the proper permissions here?
Do I need to completely remove it and add it back?
earnest phoenix
if your talking about your bot not sending messages
late hill
Where the the everyone role doesn't have all permission your bot needs
earnest phoenix
this specific server has different permission values for bots
thats what they mean
late hill
yeh
lucid iris
I don't see anything not working but sometimes DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions is thrown.
I've run this snippet console.log(guild.id, guild.me.permissions.raw); and noticed this server had different permissions.
So I thought maybe this one's the one triggering the exceptions.
earnest phoenix
@lucid iris what is the the full error
late hill
But the only thing you can change is the permissions the bot invite comes with
earnest phoenix
oof
lucid iris
That's the problem, DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions is the full error.
I've tried debugging it but I still don't know what action triggers it.
late hill
Anything else is up to whoever owns that server
earnest phoenix
wesley what are you talking about
earnest phoenix
nothing about this talks about his invite tho
late hill
It does
Because the invite comes with permissions
So you can make sure
That it has whatever permisisons you need
earnest phoenix
dbl uses a specific invite link for bots
earnest phoenix
look
