they use thier own invite link when they invite the bots here

yeah, if I get a Missing Permissions error that usually means the bot was muted.
rugged pond
Some one have a idea how to get the invitation used by a user when he join ?
A way to make that, because discord api don't permit to do that
🤷
inner jewel
@lucid iris @late hill permissions in the invite aren't guaranteed to be granted
late hill
Yeh
inner jewel
they're just selected by default
late hill
Which means
inner jewel
users can remove them
late hill
In the end its up to server administrators
uneven depot
yeah as far as i know there's no "invite accepted" event
inner jewel
never rely on having permissions
late hill
You can't change anything about it
lucid iris
I don't even know what needs what permission.
Which is why I'm trying first to find what's going on so I can then fix it.
inner jewel
probably missing permissions to send message in a channel
lucid iris
How would I check if my bot's been muted with discord.js?
I find no results on it and the typedef only shows a boolean muted on guilds, channels and user settings.

let devs = await Promise.all(client.settings.bot_dev.map(async (id) => {

why does discord fetch my meta tags only sometimes

Is it me or do the votes get reset back to 1?

}
if(message.author.roles.has(role.id)) return message.reply(`${message.author.tag} Has the role I am letting them continue.`)
await (message.author.addRole(role.id))
Why isn't this making the role?
I get 0 errors
and I am confused
uneven depot
@earnest phoenix hmm, is there a way to make it show total count instead? The API seems to show the resetted count and it also seems to affect search results

I understand that
Never said I knew js because I fixed the error
Anyway
Bye
No need for an argument
or a mute
earnest phoenix
I don't understand why people get so standoffish when someone tries to point out their code issues...
earnest phoenix
that's exactly what it is
I tell you what I suggest, and you call me a dickhead
10/10 man
west raptor
:/
hidden ginkgo
Hmm
earnest phoenix
Yes, because your code tells me that you do
lusty dew
Simple as that
lusty dew
Now stop the conversation on it
earnest phoenix
If you think of it that way...
lusty dew
Before you get us both muted
earnest phoenix
Just hear me out please...
When someone says you need to learn something, they aren't insulting you...
they're pointing you in the right direction
hidden ginkgo
Hmm, you need to work on tone a bit.
earnest phoenix
They don't want to you make the same mistake over and over
hidden ginkgo
I can see where you're both coming from.
quartz kindle
well, telling someone "go learn js" while they're trying to learn is something like telling someone "go learn how to drive" when they are driving
it can be seen as insulting
earnest phoenix
Making a Discord bot is a terrible way to learn.
Aka learning the library before the language
lusty dew
It is my way of learning
quartz kindle
hey, if someone wants to learn how to drive by drifting let them be
hidden ginkgo
I like you Tim
quartz kindle
xD
earnest phoenix
Yes, but when they expect help Tim, they drive us crazy
quartz kindle
but eventually they'll become a drift king, and you wont
even if it takes 20 years
earnest phoenix
You want to help them, but at the same time you want them to be independent
quartz kindle
i did too
west raptor
texlo was uh a bit insulting depending on how you take it
hidden ginkgo
Regardless of it it's from a bot or not, there will be some core concepts involved.
west raptor
brb
quartz kindle
but there is indeed a huge difference between someone with 0 js experience and someone with a bit of web development experience like i had
hidden ginkgo
And the use of ellipses would suggest an insult in most cases where you can't actually hear tone in their voice.
quartz kindle
if the issue is strictly learning js, i believe the best way to learn it would be through web development and standard use in browsers
earnest phoenix
@hidden ginkgo You can't be too "truth-bending". I don't sugarcoat things
If you don't know it, I will tell you stratightforward
I'm not going to lie to you
hidden ginkgo
Yeah, that's fair and personally I'd appreciate that.
west raptor

hidden ginkgo
We aren't all brewed from the same teapot though.
earnest phoenix
In neko's case, he presented code that categorically proved he did not learn the fundamentals of JS
earnest phoenix
He said he was learning. basic if blocks are one of the first things you learn
lusty dew
drop it please
Please drop it
I made a damn mistake
I am human, humans make mistakes
hidden ginkgo
Your mistake isn't the focus of the conversation now
earnest phoenix
Okay...
I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt when they say that...
lusty dew
It seems like it
hidden ginkgo
It's more about how we approach these situations
Programmers are a misunderstood breed of people
They mean well, but everyone thinks they're assholes
lusty dew
¯_(ツ)_/¯
hidden ginkgo
😄
west raptor
finding a good config is a pain though
earnest phoenix
I'll share mine if you want it.,
earnest phoenix
quartz kindle
there are several linting plugins for sublime text, if you use it
earnest phoenix
That's my baby
hidden ginkgo
A question I asked earlier but I think got lost; when you make a bot in js, can you hot swap files like you could with something on the web?
quartz kindle
what do you mean hot swap files?
hidden ginkgo
For example, with Java I have to recompile, and reinitialise every time I change something.
quartz kindle
with js you just need to restart node
earnest phoenix
Well, JS isn't compiled, it's interpreted
quartz kindle
^
earnest phoenix
so you can actually restart the application in a few seconds once you change a file
Tools like PM2 and nodeman can do this easily for you
hidden ginkgo
So you do have to restart the application is what I was getting at.
earnest phoenix
Yes you do
quartz kindle
its possible to modify files without restarting the application
if you code it that way
for example, require files, and have functions/commands to re-require the files
earnest phoenix
Oh I think I understand better.
hidden ginkgo
That makes sense, seems like dev can be pretty fast then
earnest phoenix
I have a "reload" command, but I barely use it
west raptor
big oof
earnest phoenix
I just restart with PM2
quartz kindle
pm2 has a "watch" option, where it watches a file for changes, and restarts automatically if it detects changes
earnest phoenix
@hidden ginkgo are you good with require.cache?
hidden ginkgo
I'd be lying if I said I had any idea what you're referring to.
I know basic web js, that's about it lol
earnest phoenix
Okay.
well in layman's terms, when you require modules, they are cached in the require.cache object
If you want to acheive the "hot reloading" feature you so desire, you can:
- Cache your modules (.js files) in memory
- Create a function that deletes the module from require.cache
- Re-require the file
- Re submit it to the cache.
earnest phoenix
yep, simple enough
I do it in less than 20 lines
Could be even less for you, depending on the scope of your bot
hidden ginkgo
I don't think I'll be programming anything in Js any time soon, we've got another guy at work that handles that 
It'd be interesting to learn about how it works compared to how the Java counterpart does though.
earnest phoenix
mind if I show how I implement it?
hidden ginkgo
Sure thing
earnest phoenix
reload() {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
try {
delete require.cache[require.resolve(`../../commands/${this.category.toLowerCase()}/${this.name}.js`)];
const cmd = require(`../../commands/${this.category.toLowerCase()}/${this.name}.js`);
const clas = new cmd(this.client);
this.client.commands.delete(this.name);
clas.category = this.category;
this.client.commands.set(clas);
resolve(this);
} catch (e) {
reject(e);
}
});
}```Don't expect you to understand everything, but I'll take it step by step
hidden ginkgo
Not familiar with the key words, but I pretty much understand what that's doing.
Unsure about the promise bit mostly.
inner jewel
you don't even need a promise there
earnest phoenix
It's a promise constructor, I'm creating the promise
basically the promise resolves if nothing fails, and the command is reloaded
hidden ginkgo
Is using exceptions for flow control good practice in js? 
earnest phoenix
If module cannot be reloaded, I reject the promise, and the parent function receives the rejections
grizzled sequoia
@earnest phoenix Promise is useless
no async calls are made within the promise
You might as well just return something if it was successful
earnest phoenix
@hidden ginkgo when working with promises, it's basically mandatory
You have to handle your promises, especially in Node.js. Otheriwse, you'll be granted with errors such as unhandledRejection
grizzled sequoia
or throw otherwise
wrapping your code in a promise doesn't automatically make it asynchronous 
inner jewel
function requireAgain(x) {
delete require.cache[require.resolve(x)];
return require(x);
}
function reloadCommand(name) {
commands[name] = requireAgain(`./commands/${name}`)
}```How do I check if a user has a role?
earnest phoenix
@grizzled sequoia In this case, I have a parent function that is calling this method. I want to await the promise's eventual resolution, which I created by using the promise constructor.
Sure, the promise is optional, but I personally believe that it sets a good structure flow for when I'm writing my code.
To each their own.
grizzled sequoia
Which lang @lusty dew
lusty dew
D.js
quartz kindle
why 2 separate functions? are you ever going to re-require something without reloading a command?
grizzled sequoia
@earnest phoenix I agree with the last statement but because the code is blocking there's simply no need for a promise, might be using the wrong term here but it adds overhead when it's all blocking anyway
earnest phoenix
Natan's method has a few flaws
He's won't be able to ensure in any way that requireAgain() witll be executed before reloadCommand
If he does it in two functions
grizzled sequoia
reload() {
try {
delete require.cache[require.resolve(`../../commands/${this.category.toLowerCase()}/${this.name}.js`)];
const cmd = require(`../../commands/${this.category.toLowerCase()}/${this.name}.js`);
const clas = new cmd(this.client);
this.client.commands.delete(this.name);
clas.category = this.category;
this.client.commands.set(clas);
return this;
} catch (e) {
return e; // Check if typeof is error
}
}
Promise just adds overhead/unnecessary complication
hidden ginkgo
Don't get issues like this in our clunky compiled languages, just recompile and reupload 
quartz kindle
well thats what i do in js too
lusty dew
I will ask elsewhere then
lusty dew
I have read them
earnest phoenix
Everything you'll every need is there
lusty dew
but I get an error
inner jewel
won't be able to ensure in any way that requireAgain() witll be executed before reloadCommand what
it's executed inside reloadCommand
lusty dew
Cannot read property 'has' of undefined
if(hMember.roles.has(role.id)) return msg.reply(`${message.author.tag} Has the role I am letting them continue.`)
await hMember.addRole(role.id)
@inner jewel but is it? I don't see it there
and God forbid I assume 😃
hidden ginkgo
I prefer js version of inserting variables into strings
hidden ginkgo
In Java you either concatenate or parameterize which is slow as hell
grizzled sequoia
@lusty dew msg.member.roles.has("id") i believe
name should work too iirc, although prone to ambiguity
hidden ginkgo
yeah, but in a neat way
earnest phoenix
I don't understand why you'd do it that way, but okay
quartz kindle
i prefer using concatenation than templating lmao
hidden ginkgo
instead like "this" + something + "this"
earnest phoenix
You don't handle errors at all
inner jewel
you don't either
you reject the promise
leaving callers to handle
mine will just throw
leaving callers to handle
inner jewel
just use a try catch instead of a .catch
hidden ginkgo
is templating as fast as manual concatenation?
inner jewel
using a promise has zero benefits
hidden ginkgo
in terms of cpu time
inner jewel
templating just becomes concatenation after parsing
so should be same speed to execute
earnest phoenix
Natan, you don't make any sense 
hidden ginkgo
yeah
inner jewel
string.format is a different thing entirely
it's way more powerful than template strings/concatenation
but comes with overhead
either way the overhead is negligible
unless you're doing millions and millions of strings per second
grizzled sequoia
@hidden ginkgo templating times doesn't really make much of a difference in nodejs i believe
if it's performance you're after nodejs is the last place i'd look
inner jewel
if it does that'd be stupid
because it'd be either a poor template implementation or two different impls when one would be enough
inner jewel
microbenchmarks aren't really reliable
inner jewel
also if that's just doing eval(benchmarkcode) it's flawed
because then it's considering parse times
a JIT-less node would be the best environment for that type of test
isolating each test to one process each
and running one at a time
and using a good old loop and timestamps before and after
earnest phoenix
@hidden ginkgo Tough to say. You'll never notice the difference in regular day to day use
But if you're really keen on knowing, you can run benchmarks to see
quartz kindle
idk how they do it, but jsperf is pretty much the most used js benchmarking website
inner jewel
i guess with a deterministic environment you could probably get reliable stuff but those are rare
quartz kindle
so i assume its safe to somewhat trust their results
but of course the results highly depend on context
for example, another test which outputs to console.log instead of just declaring a variable, results in a speed difference of only 5% instead of 99%
another different test i did just now, that pushes the result to an array, resulted in a speed difference of 50%
but generally concatenation is always faster
hidden ginkgo
I'm guessing that's just because of overhead though, at least it is in Java.
Concatenation is converted into the equivalent StringBuilder, while String.format is that but precursed by a Formatter

should it be something like
message.guild.members.filter(m => m.roles.some(r => r.name === "Owner"))
no need to filter every member and check for role name.
guild has roles prpoerty which is collection of roles

quartz kindle
there is no such thing as hack proof, everything can be hacked. but regarding discord bots, the most common vulnerability is if you leak your token, so as long as you make sure to never accidentally make your token public, you're good to go
other possible vulnerabilities are leaked VPS ssh keys or auth information, or an open eval command
earnest phoenix
oh god finnaly now i can make sure i dont have any vulns
like command injection
i doubt it is also possible
quartz kindle
its only possible if you have an eval command, or similar
quartz kindle
or if you make your bot with php and open sql queries
earnest phoenix
and where i woul dleak my token i wonder
quartz kindle
lmfao
earnest phoenix
did someone hack my accoun tlol
inner jewel
no
quartz kindle
most people put their bot on github or similar, and forget to exclude their token files
thats how "hacking" happens
inner jewel
how to not get your bot hacked on discord:
- properly secure your commands (just an id check is enough)
- learn how to use gitignore/whatever ignore file your VCS uses
quartz kindle
i host on vps, but i push directly via ssh
earnest phoenix
if i get backdoored im fked
inner jewel
i just use git so i can roll back changes easily

how do I get a bot info by the client id

Is there any thing to know if a bot is down ? Like on the website, there's a logo (online or offline) and I was wondering how the status was checked.
Or just, a loop checking something every 30sec to know if the bot is getting down ?
topaz fjord
The way the website knows the status is if the bot is in this server
quartz kindle
im pretty sure the website checks the discord api for the bot's online status on page load
frigid juniper
Yep but its not instantly refreshed and that's normal
I need something to know directly when something goes wrong and the bot is getting down
quartz kindle
if its your own bot, the best way is to do that server side
using some process manager
that alerts on process change
quartz kindle
well, first decide how do you want to be notified
by discord? by email? by text message?
frigid juniper
I don't want to be notified, I want to restart the raspberry when my bot is down
quartz kindle
oh thats way easier
topaz fjord
Use pm2
frigid juniper
But ... I'm using screen package
quartz kindle
is your bot in node.js?
frigid juniper
No python : the script is running in a screen
quartz kindle
well, im sure there are many ways to auto-restart a python script on crash
topaz fjord
pm2 can run python btw
bronze wagon
hey bois
frigid juniper
Its more difficult cauz the screen is getting closed when a script has finished running
quartz kindle
oh pm2 can run python, didnt know that
topaz fjord
They have interpreters
quartz kindle
if you run pm2, you dont need a screen
rustic axle
iirc if you are able to catch the process id from another process on a unix machine you should be able to check if it crashes
topaz fjord
quartz kindle
if your PI is running linux, and you access it via ssh, you can install pm2, and run pm2 start script.py
topaz fjord
ye
quartz kindle
pm2 will automatically create a process and manage it for you
no need for screens or tmux
frigid juniper
Oh OK, I'll check that
quartz kindle
and you can check status, amount of crashes, last error, ram/cpu usage, etc
topaz fjord
I suggest also specifiing interpreter as well when running it
just so it runs the right lang
who knows if it could fail so
quartz kindle
i was using tmux with while loops directly in terminal before i switched to pm2 xD
frigid juniper
I don't really know this app but I'll learn how its working
topaz fjord
o shit pm2 has an enterprise version
frigid juniper
Thanks a lot guys for your advices and have a good evening / day (10PM for me XD)

@earnest phoenix its avatarURL in 11 and avatarURL() in 12
btw @smoky spire that won't work for people without avatars, to make it work for them use displayAvatarURL instead of avatarURL

this doesn't work:
SELECT *
FROM ocelotbot_spooks AS spooks1
JOIN ocelotbot_spooks ON ocelotbot_spooks.id = (SELECT min(id) AS next FROM ocelotbot_spooks AS spooks2 WHERE spooks2.id > ocelotbot_spooks.id AND spooks2.server = ocelotbot_spooks.server)
but this one does
SELECT *,
(SELECT min(id) AS next FROM ocelotbot_spooks AS spooks2 WHERE spooks2.id > ocelotbot_spooks.id AND spooks2.server = ocelotbot_spooks.server) AS next
FROM ocelotbot_spooks

@bitter sundial now for real why would you need an api token for like quering top bots sorted by server count as example
hidden ginkgo
What output are you getting?
restive silo
its kinda pointless imo
bitter sundial
@restive silo to control api abuse, like scraping
restive silo
ah did it go that bad?
well i mean i understand that then for like security reasons its fine i guess,
earnest phoenix
well currently the api/bots* requires no auth and has a limit of 500 so people can "scrape" the whole site in like 10 requests
heady zinc
that will just make people actually scrape the website and do more requests by doing so 
earnest phoenix
okay now it's maybe offtopic development question
The Scenario: A hosting company calls you and explains that they developed their own in-house control panel. However, they wish to move away from it to a more feature-complete commercial control panel that contains all of the standard features that website owners are looking for. They wish to eliminate development costs associated with maintaining their own control panel so they can get back to providing shared hosting more efficiently.
Is cPanel & WHM “The Hosting Platform of Choice” for this user?
is it?
earnest phoenix
uuh its a choice
now whether its the choice would depend to actual specifications of their in-house control panel and whether a combination of WHM and cPanel would be sufficient enough
wide ruin
discord.js, is it possible to get the user's role colour?
inner jewel
no
wide ruin
Ok
wide ruin
Is there a way to get a members role colour?
bitter sundial
find their highest role and check the color of that role
ruby dust
doesn't member have a color parameter in d.js or something
wide ruin
Thanks
bitter sundial
oh they do? lol I didn't notice that when I looked at that before 😄
should've known tho
wide ruin
So member.roles.displayHexColor
inner jewel
no
wide ruin
Would that be right?
inner jewel
read the docs
wide ruin
I did
inner jewel
displayColor is a property of GuildMember
wide ruin
Oh
Well it's going off a ping, defined as mUser
So mUser.GuildMember.roles.displayHexColor?
ruby dust
inner jewel
i'd recommend learning the language/library properly before making a bot
ruby dust
it's a second, or a third week he's been asking these kind of questions
wide ruin
Oh, so remove roles
earnest phoenix
botum hala test edilmedimi
smoky spire
No, displayHexColor is a property of a member, not a role
wide ruin
Right, looked at roles and is it just hexColor
That's what it said on guildMember.highestRole
@smoky spire right?
smoky spire
You said you just wanted the color that the member shows right?
smoky spire
just use member.displayHexColor 
inner jewel
again, learn the library
wide ruin
mUser.displayHexColor
inner jewel
you could find the answer to your question with a simple ctrl + f on the docs
ruby dust
not ust the library, they will keep asking these stupid questions cause they've been doing it for 3 weeks I think
earnest phoenix
Will you test my Discord botum?
hushed berry
Do you guys this this would be confusing? like do you think people would try -auto reset premium
https://i.imgur.com/KPsWxFv.png
topaz fjord
What does it do
hushed berry
well i mean
the explaination for what auto reset is
is on that second hyper link
but do you think the premium bit is confusing
topaz fjord
I was thinking you could do [Premium] or smth like that
topaz fjord
uh
hushed berry
😳
hushed berry
hmm
west raptor
maybe directly below it?
visual surge
Hi niko.
I'd say either that, directly above in a smaller font, in a red [P] before it, or possibly even as another line after Required Permissions
abstract crystal
how about making it a tag (might misled users into believing that it's not a link)
west raptor
That could work also
hushed berry
@abstract crystal I dont believe I have that much control
abstract crystal
is this a website, if i may ask
unborn estuary
hello to all, can one help me with a very simple bot? He should only choose a random user with a specific role. (Python)
west raptor
python*
hushed berry
@abstract crystal kinda
unborn estuary
you right xD
abstract crystal
so you want to get the role (you can get it with the discord.util.get) then use role.members to get the list of members and use random.choice to select a random member
unborn estuary
first Thank you
i try it but i must say, im a noob in coding, i think i need more help 😅
abstract crystal
@hushed berry is there any wiggle room with css? (i'm guessing probably not) only thing required would be background color and border radius
@unborn estuary remember: documentation is always your best friend
http://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/rewrite/
hushed berry
yeah, actually, there is 😊
unborn estuary
maybe but my english isn´t so good
but i try it
thx
hushed berry
i just have absolutely no clue how to use it
unborn crow
Are you german?
unborn estuary
yes
unborn crow
Das ist ja schön c:
unborn estuary
hehe hi ^^
west raptor
west raptor
its ok
unborn crow
abstract crystal
.tag {
align-items: center;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
border-radius: 290486px;
color: #4a4a4a;
display: inline-flex;
font-size: .75rem;
height: 2em;
justify-content: center;
line-height: 1.5;
padding-left: .75em;
padding-right: .75em;
white-space: nowrap;
}
and the html would be
<p>-auto reset <span class="tag">premium</span></p>
@hushed berry
earnest phoenix
so uh
how would i make my bot have multiple prefixes through an array
like
i know how to do
abstract crystal
{guild_id: "prefix"}
hushed berry
check if first matches, if so run command
earnest phoenix
*/eval
let a = ["*/", "this is so sad */", "*/*/"]
let strong = "this is so sad */ping"
a.forEach(prefix => {
message.channel.send(strong.startsWith(prefix))
})
if not, repeat with prefix 2
west raptor
alright
earnest phoenix
i'll try the if statement thing
and if that doesn't work i'll use an idiots guide
abstract crystal
OwO
hushed berry
i really appreciate the help
hushed berry
its not perfect
i couldnt figure out how to define a new element
so i kept the superscript and just applied the css to that instead
which works, i guess
right?
abstract crystal
well it works xd
hushed berry
maybe ill have to submit a ticket or something to ask how to do that thing
but ty anyways 
it looks much nicer
also eww
i hate that pepe blush
west raptor
lol
topaz fjord
@abstract crystal isn't that the Bulma tag
topaz fjord
bad
abstract crystal
and a bit modified
earnest phoenix
uwu
abstract crystal
hushed berry
um a lot of sites
topaz fjord
then host it on your own
hushed berry
well that would defeat the purpose of this then!
topaz fjord
wut
abstract crystal
is external stylesheet too much to ask?
topaz fjord
What are you even making ur weebsite with
languid vault
how do i get the 300 characters
<div style="display: none">
this broke
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
yeeet
</div>
but it didnt work
west raptor
lol
hushed berry
....
topaz fjord
To get 300 characters you type more
abstract crystal
Actually make a meaningful description 
topaz fjord
Just add a shitload of css
topaz fjord
nou
abstract crystal
copy and paste entire bootstrap
languid vault
i dont know for a description
topaz fjord
If dbl was made with react I bet it would be 100 times 👌
abstract crystal
react™
topaz fjord
yes
languid vault
uhhh
languid vault
random words then
topaz fjord
No
abstract crystal
lorem ipsum
topaz fjord
Spam to fill long desc gets you declined
languid vault
lorem ipsum
abstract crystal
inb4 bot declined
west raptor
hahayes
abstract crystal
west raptor
earnest phoenix
ol
hushed berry
@languid vault yeah, you actually need to have something there for it to pass verification lol

no !help is better
bronze wagon
is there any alternative to npm forever?
it works nicely but i cant see console and error
s
topaz fjord
pm2
inner jewel
systemd
bronze wagon
im figuring out pm2
seems better
this ubuntu
driver support absolutely terrible
bronze wagon
but pm2 gives me remote access to keep an eye on bot ;d
frail terrace
what's the best way to store commands (their names): a db or in json
quartz kindle
i just have them in an array somewhere in the main file lul
frail terrace
but i'd like it to be dynamic
quartz kindle
like enabled/disabled?
or per server configuration?
then you need a db yes, to keep track of server ids
json also works, but db is safer
quartz kindle
with or without restarting the bot?
frail terrace
restarts
quartz kindle
then you can have each command in a file in a folder, and on bot startup read the folder
that way you can just create a new file and your bot will see it automatically
ivory pebble
Does anyone know if sharding will improve my bot's ping?
topaz fjord
improve your internet to get better ping
shrewd lark
hola una pregunta
shrewd lark
alguien me recomienda un bot parecido al @runic bridge
west raptor
earnest phoenix
ty mini mod
topaz fjord
other langs in #memes-and-media
topaz fjord
no
earnest phoenix
for your bot?
ivory pebble
Ya
earnest phoenix
is it hosted on ur pc
bronze wagon
thats 2 bad
inner jewel
move it to a server close to discord
topaz fjord
like i said improve internet
inner jewel
aka us east coast
ivory pebble
Ya the server is in CHicago
ivory pebble
Yes I have full access
topaz fjord
I host mine in N.Y. and i get ~ 22-28ms
ivory pebble
Well my bot is weird
Sometimes it has really good ping
And sometimes it has really really bad ping
And its affecting the bot's server count and stuff
topaz fjord
rip
bronze wagon
ur using same internet?
quartz kindle
whats the ping you're getting?
until 200ms on average its considered normal
optimally, you would have 60-100ms
ivory pebble
Im getting more than 10 seconds ._.
topaz fjord
what the fuck
bronze wagon
whoah
ivory pebble
Sometimes it can go up to a minute
quartz kindle
are you sure thats the bots ping and not some code problem?
maybe try changing servers?
ivory pebble
That would cost money
topaz fjord
hosting in N.Y seems to do well for some bots
@ivory pebble how much do you pay for your vps rn
bronze wagon
why dont u use ur own host
quartz kindle
there are many VPS with free/trial options
ivory pebble
Im using galaxy gate, 10$
topaz fjord
how do you have that bad ping
ivory pebble
I dont know..
topaz fjord
im using Galaxy Gate same plan and i get 20ms
quartz kindle
galaxygate has very good reviews here, it shouldnt be that bad lol
bronze wagon
isnt it just better to host by yourself?
ivory pebble
No
topaz fjord
no
quartz kindle
no
bronze wagon
why lol
tough tinsel
ivory pebble
It might be my music system thats causing this
quartz kindle
consumer internet vs dedicated server internet
consumer internet sucks
its unstable
slow
etc
topaz fjord
GG has unlim bandwith so idk if its music
ivory pebble
Ya its really weird
topaz fjord
you can try asking in their support server
quartz kindle
if your music is using a lot of bandwidth then it could be the issue
similar to how torrent makes your ping go to 2k+
try disabling the music temporarily?
topaz fjord
or use lavalink
ivory pebble
Music is the only feature of the bot 
That would be a problem if I disabled that, since its a music bobt
quartz kindle
still, its worth a try
try a simple ping command
with and without music
if ping is normal without the music system running, then you have your answer
and the problem is the code, not the server
ivory pebble
Okay
quartz kindle
try making a new bot with only a ping command, and shut down your main bot for 10 seconds to test the ping
ivory pebble
See
The bots ping isnt always bad
It becomes bad after I run node index.js by like 3 hours
or sometime like that
quartz kindle
then its possible you have a memory leak or something
ivory pebble
Okay, well thanks for all the help
glacial kestrel
wicked summit
Hey
bright spear
@wicked summit are you using express?
wicked summit
Umm already know it
earnest phoenix
ok
so if my bot doesn't have the permission to do something in a guild
should it be
if(client.user.hasPermissions !== "some-value-lol-foobar") || if(message.guild.me.hasPermissions !== "some-value-lol-foobar")
i feel like client.user.hasPermissions isn't a function
so
bright spear
if(!message.guild.me.hasPermission('EMBED_LINKS')){
// do stuff
}
Progress
Can somebody tell me how can I mentions specific server in js
I need to disable level up and coins messages from this server
anyone here maybe can help me ^w^
i got confused 3 hours
So i want make an JSON to save a image using a link in GLITCH
this https://sharif.glitch.me
but i'm confused why the images can't randomly sended there.
my code:```js
var express = require('express');
var http = require('http');
var app = express();
// pinging
app.use(express.static('public'));
// http://expressjs.com/en/starter/basic-routing.html
let img = require('./image.json')
let rstatus = img[Math.floor(Math.random() * img.length)]
app.get('/', function(request, response) {
response.send(( {image: rstatus} ))
})
// listen for requests :)
var listener = app.listen(process.env.PORT, function() {
console.log('Your app is listening on port ' + listener.address().port);
});
setInterval(() => {
http.get(http://${process.env.PROJECT_DOMAIN}.glitch.me/);
}, 280000);
Is if(message.guild.id = “id”) a thing?
verbal jolt
earnest phoenix
no its json
i put a link image there
and want get it randomly
but
can't random
Ooh
bright spear
@earnest phoenix yes but you need to use normal quotes: "
amber gorge
Hey everyone
is anyone familiar with digital ocean ?
How much time can i host my bot with 50$ ?
bright spear
I've heard ovh sucks
amber gorge
Actually i'm using Heroku
it's totally free
earnest phoenix
i have never had a problem with ovh
amber gorge
but i sometimes get memory leaks
amber gorge
is it pricy ?
earnest phoenix
cheapest host i can think of
much moreso then digital ocean
but if you need the support structure
i would go with Digital ocean
if you have a good grasp on how server management and maintnance works
ovh
earnest phoenix
amber gorge
on digital ocean

paper zinc
Can someone give me a code line for my bot.js? It keeps crashing after 24 hours (thats not the problem) but the problem is that it wont start up automatically again!
earnest phoenix
pretty affordable
@paper zinc are you running it with PM2 or nodemon?
or just 'node blah.js'
paper zinc
Wtf is both of that
amber gorge
thanks uber
paper zinc
i use node blah bleh oh my mac pro in the corner of my room
earnest phoenix
what kind of server are you hosting it on
ok
soe if your running it off your pc
earnest phoenix
pm2 will run it and if it crashes etc it will instantly restart
0 downtime
just install it
and run 'pm2 start blah.js'
here
How do I do for this part
npm install pm2 -g
pm2 start 'blah.js'
pm2 list
i use it on my server
works wounderfully
and it stores files to cache i believe so when you change files it wont effect till a restart meaning 0 downtime
amber gorge
@earnest phoenix you can write text directly
use markdown like in discord
or use html
earnest phoenix
pm2 is lovely
amber gorge
there's a button to preview so you can test what you want
earnest phoenix
but read its docs
or else youll be lost
I put the code of my bot
if you want a easier solution but less stable and more thrown together i guess you could run it on nodemon
he put the code of his bot
ded
It is mandatory
no
it is not
amber gorge
no
amber gorge
haha ! XD
earnest phoenix
i have a french friend irl, only thing he taught me was swearing
and slang
