hello does anybody know how to start making a mixer,twitch and youtube stream announcer bot ?
sick cloud
@slate kayak mixer has a great api, easiest, just check it out. twitch requires some 24/7 service and is hard, just google it, as for youtube, it's virtually impossible (from personal experience) unless you understand pubsubhubhub and xml/subscriptions
sick cloud
np
earnest phoenix
dang
createPCMStream is hard
especially if ur like me and dont know tf is goin o

does the icons match?
am i colour clashing?
does it look bad?
ivory pebble
Ya I would say just have them all as png files, or have something else
The above doesn’t really look nice, just my opinion
@earnest phoenix
Does anyone know the types of things that would cause a bot to have a bad ping?
sick cloud
@ivory pebble bad internet or overloaded shards
astral quail
Have slow internet
ivory pebble
Anything other than that

Icons
They don’t match with the UI or each other
earnest phoenix
oh alright, but what about the

ivory pebble
Ya
sick cloud
no
earnest phoenix
the paypal?
sick cloud
none of them do
sick cloud
use FA
astral quail
@sick cloud chill buddy, no need to get upset
sick cloud
earnest phoenix
yeah for html
sick cloud
yes
earnest phoenix
yea
sick cloud
you copy the <i> code
sick cloud
thats the directory of all icons FA has
earnest phoenix
the point is where is the font
earnest phoenix
that doesnt say "get started"
sick cloud
did you put an icon in
sick cloud
ur not confused
sick cloud
ur just not trying
earnest phoenix
what?
sick cloud
- put the css in head
earnest phoenix
i'm a bit tried
sick cloud
its a link
earnest phoenix
i put that in the header
sick cloud
that imports the css
earnest phoenix
wait
so it should replace
my other one for css?
this one?
that makes no sense
sorry i'm tried
earnest phoenix
guys where is the best and cheapest place to host??
sick cloud
asking in multiple channels
stone scroll
help me
config.json IS there
but it isn't detecting it for some reason
@wild phoenix
sick cloud
is it in that folder
sick cloud
does it have a typo
stone scroll
nope
sick cloud
how are you requiring
stone scroll
what do you mean
sick cloud
literally show the code your using to require it
sick cloud
step one is to stop copy pasting code and learn
stone scroll
thas what im doing
sick cloud
the only reason that error is appearing is because the file doesnt exist in that directory
stone scroll
so I put config.json in the commands directory
sick cloud
wait
../
use an extra dot
../ = back a dir
./ = current dir
you use ./ when the file is in the same dir
../ and ../../ etc when its in a lower down dir
astral quail
You want to use the config.js file inside your coin.js file right?
astral quail
Can you show me the line with require in coin.js please.
sick cloud
i give up
stone scroll
tf do you mean
sick cloud
nobody fucking listens today
sick cloud
@stone scroll in the coin.js file change ./config.json to ../config.json
astral quail
Because he doesn't understands you.
sick cloud
how much more precise do i have to be
astral quail
He's still learning, no need to act like that.
astral quail
It's your first time making a command handler?
astral quail
okay, can you show me your coin.js file in a hastebin please?
sick cloud
what
stone scroll
you just said
sick cloud
your using discord.js right
stone scroll
yes
sick cloud
stone scroll
should I just completely restart the bot
like start from scratch again
cuz it's kind of a mess rn
ye imma do that
late hill
Fun
topaz fjord
Isn't .startsWith a function
also using .startsWith let's me do g!help urushdhrudbduejdndi
Even if there is no parameters that you need to take in
white pebble
if(message.content.startsWith('g!kick'))
earnest phoenix
Also, kick is undefined
that too
also you don't need the if else code block
you can just put
if(!message.member.hasPermission('KICK_MEMBERS')) return message.channel.send('You need the "Kick Members" permission to do that.')

Hey, newbie here, I'd like to know which project type I have to use for a bot ^^ any help appreciated ^^
red venture
Uuuh, c# aand the DiscordBotsList.Api, the .NET library ^^
Nvm, been a complete moron ^^

Hey, how do I send a message to a predetermined channel? Like when I write "!ping", "pong!" is written in the Bot Messages channel?
quartz kindle
yourclientname.channels.get("channelID").send("message")
red venture
ChannelID isn't the channels name, right?
quartz kindle
nope, is the channel's unique id
red venture
How to I get this...
quartz kindle
you can enable developer mode in your discord, then you can right click a channel and copy id
unborn estuary
How can I make a simple random generator that only selects users in the channel, with pyhton?
red venture
I would guess with an array and a rng that takes a number corresponding with an ID... is this even possible?
quartz kindle
bots are not added to channels, they are added to servers. it will work on all channels that the bot is in
as long as the bot has permissions to send messages
channel ids are also unique and independent from servers
red venture
I meant when I add the bot onto another server, both have the general chat but I only take the ID of one of them
quartz kindle
the channel id is unique among all servers
if you use the id from the general chat in your server, the message will go only there, not the other server
red venture
Okay, that's what I wanted to know
So a user of mine would want to choose another channel on his server, how can I integrate that?
quartz kindle
you would need a database to keep track of which channel ID should be selected in which server
red venture
And how can I add new ones?
quartz kindle
or if you want it easier (less ideal but many people do it), you can define a channel name, and tell people to always use that channel name so the bot can find it
with a database, the person would need to use a command containing the channel mention or id
red venture
Would it be possible to use a command to add the channel? Like the bot joined and you write in general "!addChannel Test" and the bot saves this
quartz kindle
and your bot should receive this command, and add the server and channel ids to your database
as a key value pair (probably)
depends how you want to structure your database, and what kind of database you're gonna use
red venture
Would say the key is the server id
quartz kindle
yup
red venture
So when the message is sent it checks the server first and then sends it to the corresponding channel id
quartz kindle
exactly
red venture
What database would you recommend?
drowsy lily
postgres master race
red venture
Postgres?
earnest phoenix
uhm guys I have rlly stupid problem
I downloaded my bot from github for beta
but when try to open bot
it's automaticly shutdown
why
red venture
@drowsy lily Do you know how I can implement PostgreSQL into a windows console app?
drowsy lily
earnest phoenix
code it, put the token into your code and run it 
red venture
@restive silo Yeah, meant that. But it got solved otherwise
slate kayak
http://prntscr.com/l42xp5 i have a question why some bot show the server and the others N/A ? is there a way to change that so that it show on DBL ?
restive silo
it will show the server count what was posted to DBL's API
N/A means the owner didn't post it so far
slate kayak
ok and how can i do it @restive silo 😦
quartz kindle
either send an http POST request yourself, or install the DBL API library for your prefered language
slate kayak
ok lik maby @quartz kindle please

Sounds very appealing, thank you
earnest phoenix
@topaz fjord Yeah, that's the catch lol
But you get a beast of a cpu in return
It's a trade-off if you think of it
I'd say 3gb is enough for node.js and a bot, assuming it's not a massive bot
maybe a small DB too, but that may be pushing it
No other provider I know of gives you that good of a CPU for that price
urban jay
try !== true and not !== 'true'
earnest phoenix
But how would I make it not send anything else
That’s the only way anybody told me
I removed the return and it still says I’m blacklisted
This does nothing if I add a ; to return it does the same as before
topaz fjord
bc your not checking if the user is blacklisted
earnest phoenix
It says I’m blacklisted by default
Oof
But it just sends the message with everything else
Guys
I have a question that I think I know the answer but I want to make sure
ok
Its 100% correct, the more traffic my website gets, it needs a faster hosting computer?
quartz kindle
yes, but it only starts to really matter once you get concurrent traffic
if you get 5000 requests per day, but in 10 second intervals, its not gonna make a difference
topaz fjord
if you get 50000 at an interval of 1 sec then it probs would

Should I use the Jetbrains IDE instead of Visual Studio Code?

I currently use VS Code but I am wondering because Jetbrains IDE is an IDE
wheat marten
oh

but if you are a student
wheat marten
wait
night imp
you get it for free
west raptor
depends what you are working with
wheat marten
I know about Jetbrains because I use Android Studio
west raptor
web dev - i would say stick with vscode
bot dev - vscode or jetbrains (or whatever lol)
wheat marten
So I should use VS Code to make a website?
sullen path
Use whatever you want
sullen path
but true programmers use mspaint
west raptor
jetbrains is made for heavier stuff i guess u could say
wheat marten
Oh
west raptor
lol i dont have experience with software
wheat marten
I used to make stuff in C#
C# isn't my thing though.
tbh I don't like C#

@earnest phoenix Are you even using a text editor?

Do you have node.js?

i'm gonna leave you two to deal with your bad code
wheat marten
I don't have bad code
sick cloud
then your an idiot
you never put tokens and api keys/info in the same file statically
wheat marten
why
sick cloud
bad practice
wheat marten
so I should make a config.js script?
wheat marten
I have a question about making a bot.
I am working on NSFW commands, Is it against discord rules to make a command that DMs somebody an NSFW image?
slim heart
is there a way to get a bots demographic, so like a way to look at where the servers are hosted?
quartz kindle
yes, you have access to server region
inner jewel
you mean servers as in guild or servers as in real server
slim heart
guild
sick cloud
map each guilds region
slim heart
what would be the most efficient way of mapping each server and making a percentage chart yada
(not visual just percents)
inner jewel
but region only affects voice fyi
slim heart
I mean yeah but its a good job on the primary demographic
quartz kindle
yeah. but its a server-wide setting, most people use it do set server target region
as in, voice servers closest to target region
inner jewel
map each guild to it's region, then divide the count for each region by the total
multiply by 100 for % values
slim heart
bot.guilds.array().forEach(guild => {
if(guild.region == "us-east") {
oof = oof + 1
}
})
oof
could i just do something like that
but that'd be difficult to get all the regions, but im not terribly sure how
to make it easier
inner jewel
guilds.groupBy(g => g.getRegionRaw()).mapValues(list => list.size.toDouble / guilds.size() * 100)
just convert to js
slim heart
cuz i could do something like
let uscentral = 0
let useast = 0
bot.guilds.array().forEach(guild => {
if(guild.region == "us-east") {
useast = useast + 1
}
if(guild.region == "us-central") {
uscentral = uscentral + 1
}
})```but thats just annoying
oh yeah
oh that's smart
steel drum
inner jewel
why not just
const regions = {};
guilds.forEach(g => regions[g.region] = (regions[g.region] || 0) + 1);
shell blade
Is it possible to listen for reactions once executed with a command without using the Client method?
inner jewel
https://i-was-scammed-by.dabbot.org/25f556.png something like this logic

Natan what u sent worked before
shell blade
Yes. So that when, say, the ▶ emoji is reacted I have it go to the next page.
night imp
@shell blade add a messagereaction listener on the message
(when you send the message save it as a variable)
shell blade
.awaitReaction?- I have a message handler, so I'm not sure that's possible.
shell blade
Ah, yeah.
So
var msg = await message.channel.send('help');
await msg.awaitReactions(...);
This?
inner jewel
const reactionhandlers = {};
function checkdone(messageid) {
const handler = reactionhandlers[messageid];
if(!handler) return;
if(Date.now() > handler.timeoutDate) {
delete reactionhandlers[messageid]
} else {
setTimeout(() => checkdone(messageid), handler.timeout);
}
}
function listen(messageid, callback, timeout) {
reactionhandlers[messageid] = {callback, timeout, timeoutTime: Date.now() + timeout};
setTimeout(() => checkdone(messageid), timeout);
}
client.on("reaction", call reactionhandlers[messageid] and update timeoutDate)```waw man tech is really amazing like who thought of hosting their website from their garbge bin?

sick cloud
@earnest phoenix stop using a single file bot
https://github.com/TheOnlyWalrusYT/furryfambot/blob/master/server.js#L66 message.guild is undefined
earnest phoenix
So what would i define it as?
sick cloud
well clearly theres no guild
you cant define the guild
it might be running in a dm
add a check
if (!Message.guild) return Message.reply('There isn\'t a guild, make sure to use this in a server, and not DMs!');
something like that
earnest phoenix
but im trying to make it work in dms
earnest phoenix
yes
sick cloud
and dms arent servers
so what are you thinking, "i can use guild in dms even tho theres no guild"
earnest phoenix
when someone dms the bot its supposed to create a channel in a server
sick cloud
guild == server
server != dm
then get the guild itself
and run the code only if its in a dm
if (msg.channel.type == 'dm') {
const guild = client.guilds.get('id');
if (!guild) return;
// do your channel stuff
}

Hey Guys, my IDE gives me an error when trying to load a specific value from a json database via Newtonsoft. It says that the object has no definition for the search term but I don't now how to resolve it
earnest phoenix
How can I do a blacklist using sqlite3
I mean
In the database there are some ids.
And when you do forceban the bot banned all of that database
Someone can help me?
astral quail
You literally just loop all the queries.
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix gather all IDs in a column (shouldn't be too hard) then do something like this:
return;
}```You will need to plugin ann values for database ID though.
ok
@earnest phoenix https://github.com/Mumiji/flan-chanbot?files=1
In that case they use a JSON as storage, however, you can easily replace it with SQL.
okay

arki.py is a discord bot written in discord.py that mainly was developed for a hobby and doing random tasks like grabbing a users info or grabbing a mentioned users avatar. arki.py mainly developed by arki#8251 as a hobby.

Hey there @hushed berry! I fixed up all of the problems arki.py had
the bot got muted with "hi"
but its removed
proper wagon
Can the bot only show who has been most active from the time you add it, or can it show from the day, the server was made?
ruby dust
Discord stores a timestamp of when they joined
Oh wait
I thought you meant who joined when
quartz kindle
you can use fetchMessages to get messages from before your bot joined the server
but idk about limits
proper wagon
So it can't show my activities for the last half year, when I just added It today?
quartz kindle
it can if you make it fetch all those old messages and process them
ruby dust
As a quote bot developer that is made to look for past messages, there are no ratelimits of fetching messages, and the fetching speed is at least 100 messages per second
quartz kindle
so you can go back to the beginning of the server?
proper wagon
How do I do that?
quartz kindle
nice
proper wagon
Yes
quartz kindle
still, with 100 messages per second, it will take half an hour to get 180k messages
proper wagon
Can you show the command for that? 😃
ruby dust
Actually the speed might vary, mostly depending on your internet speed and how roughly your host is being used
earnest phoenix
Lol
quartz kindle
or can you do limit 0 or -1 for infinite
ruby dust
But it will take a long ass time in larger servers
ruby dust
Like I know dbots is very active and is one of oldest servers I know, and even that might take at least several hours
quartz kindle
if its a million+ message server, it will take at least 3-4 hours
there are probably servers with tens of millions of messages
which would take hundreds of hours lmao
ruby dust
Even if such message fetching doesn't have ratelimits, I'm still sure that it's hard for discord to maintain performance during/after such massive fetch
quartz kindle
all fetched messages are cached right?
so millions of messages in the cache = several gigs of ram

i have this server, and it has a counting text channel, one of the users suggested that i make my bot send the next number every hour
Example:
Callumok2004: 2809
MrZeke: 2810
CatManiaBot: 2811
i want it to be able to read the last number sent and send the next number which is one number higher than the previous, and to not run if the previous message was the bot
how would i go about coding this?
west raptor
Add one to the last message in the channel and send it in the channel
earnest phoenix
how would i do it though, im new to coding
west raptor
msg.channel.lastMessage iirc

@west raptor I got the util to work, but I can't get the emoji from it?
Nevermind, I got it.

knotty steeple

astral quail
He needs something else then hex.
earnest phoenix

red venture
@astral quail Don't think I'm dumb but how am I going to do this?
astral quail
I don't use #c
astral quail
C#*
astral quail
@red venture https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12947093/can-i-write-to-the-console-log-to-debug-a-web-application-with-c-sharp
earnest phoenix
um
astral quail
That helps?
red venture
Should. Forgot that the bot cmd is MY cmd xD
astral quail
Lul
red venture
But first I need to get a method to get a string that has the value equal to the message.Author's type...
Okay, the debug isn't working...
red venture
You mean like an integer to string? Yes this would work
astral quail
Aren't there docs for C#
red venture
But it seems like message.Author responds as a string because I can use my variable x without converting it....
Define?
idle mountain
wait what's the issue? I use C#
red venture
Okay, figured it out. I can get the Username seperatly
I tried to get the username more complicated than it has to be
ember shard
I need help with my bot
idle mountain
what language and what do you need help with?
ember shard
English, I don't know how to set up my leveling system
knotty steeple
so because you are new?
earnest phoenix
ay ay go easy on him bro
knotty steeple
everyone has to know what programming language their bot is in
knotty steeple
dont code on mobile pls
earnest phoenix
XD
ember shard
Ok
ember shard
How do i give someone permission to edit it
red venture
You can't
ember shard
How do i code on mobile??
red venture
It is such a pain you could say can't. Just easier
ember shard
TELL ME HOW PLEASE
red venture
Get yourself an IDE
ruby dust
west raptor
red venture
And then figure out how to download apis
ember shard
What is an IDE
red venture
You wont get far but IF you really insist, google... maybe someone out there knows how
Really?..
bright spear
Just learn how to code pls
west raptor
integrated development env, @ember shard
bright spear
And don't code on mobile
red venture
At least some coding experience is needed
ember shard
Ok
red venture
Do you know how to code a bit? @ember shard
earnest phoenix
hmmm
ember shard
Yea kinda
red venture
Language?
ember shard
I am gonna use my friends computer and he uses Java
red venture
But you have to know HOW to use the language otherwise he's the dev
ember shard
He is the dev
west raptor
ruby dust
his computer isn't going to help you build a bot in java, you need to learn that yourself
west raptor
i cant anymore
red venture
Then why are you asking for coding on a mobile when HE is the dev?
This makes no sense...
red venture
Then you are still the dev....
red venture
And you have to get a language you know
ember shard
I am stil the developer
red venture
Not just any
ember shard
I kinda know Java
red venture
Already done something? Something small like a mod or so should count imo
red venture
Ufff. what can you do?
earnest phoenix
so your not a dev
ember shard
I am
red venture
He means regularly
earnest phoenix
what can you do then
ember shard
I’m new to this
red venture
So you aren't a developer
quartz kindle
i'd advise you to look into learning a language first, before attempting a bot
if you like java, look into java tutorials on the internet
red venture
At least make something small...
quartz kindle
or small courses
red venture
Good
ember shard
What do i do to make the "b~help" work??
quartz kindle
- learn a programming language
- create a bot account in the discord website
- create a program in your programming language
- add a discord library to your program
- use your discord bot account's token to make your program login to discord
- write code to listen to discord messages and reply to them
- execute your program
- add your bot to your discord server with your oauth2 invite link
- run your command
ember shard
Thanks
thin loom
continues to make the next best bot

@earnest phoenix probably depends how strict you configure it to be
earnest phoenix
tryna answer his question
lol
he keepds getting dropped sockets
so seeing if there is a firewall block on outbound (and inbound packets) that may affect it
earnest phoenix
