woah

[oblique sequoia]

Database 101: Its a base for data

[topaz fjord]

@oblique sequoia *because it doesn't want to be attacked with corruption

[oblique sequoia]

or the RAM void. Where dead memory sections go.

[earnest phoenix]

I need help, I'm making a command that ban all Users that is in the database. The problem is that is giving too many errors.

[hollow fulcrum]

IndexError: tuple index out of range

await ctx.send("**Command list:**```{0} - {1}```".format('\n'.join([cmd.qualified_name for cmd in client.commands])),''.join(ree))

where ree = ["" if x==None else x for x in [cmd.qualified_name for cmd in client.commands]]

[earnest phoenix]

I use discord.js with sqlite

[hollow fulcrum]

I use python

[slender thistle]

if x==None

What is x

[carmine echo]

Why can't level store objects? If I put in an object, I always get [object Object] when I get it.

[slender thistle]

@hollow fulcrum Uh, I see a parenthesis after client.commands thing

There are two of them, actually

That's the issue

[hollow fulcrum]

ty

[hollow fulcrum]

``python

    ello = ree[eee] + [" - "] + [cmd.qualified_name for cmd in client.commands][eee]
TypeError: must be str, not list```

can someone explain this error

please

[carmine echo]

Did you write the whole bot yourself?

[hollow fulcrum]

some of it i copied and pasted

but this is original

😃

[carmine echo]

It freaks me out that arrays are named lists in python. The error is , that whatever you're trying to do with it should be a string. And you are using an array.

And arrays are the thingies that have [] around them

[hollow fulcrum]

yus

[carmine echo]

I'm guessing eee is not a number

[hollow fulcrum]

it is

for eee in range(blah blah blash)

[carmine echo]

Also how do you even code with such horribly named variables

[winged shell]

I need help on databases, how do I start using it and how do I start off with them. I really need to add some useful commands to my bot to help it become more useful.

[carmine echo]

Language?

[winged shell]

discord.py

forgot to mention

[carmine echo]

py I want nothing to do with py lol

[winged shell]

pog alright

[hollow fulcrum]

databases are hosted, so get a mysql database from ebay or 000webhost or something

[carmine echo]

I've tried py today. Everything about it creeped me out.

[hollow fulcrum]

and just google how to use mysql

profit

[carmine echo]

If you're using js and want something really basic, use enmap. very good thing.

[hollow fulcrum]

stop making people switch to js fam

[carmine echo]

js is superior fam

[winged shell]

i like py better

[hollow fulcrum]

i'll be learning java next year i hope

[carmine echo]

js is very useful, especially for web development. Many programmers hate it, but imo it's much better than py

and there are amazing things such as node

Rewrite your bot in js.

lol

[winged shell]

Yes, I should rewrite 5 months of work.

[heady anvil]

java's the best

[astral quail]

Is there a way to see what invite code the user used when they join a server?

Using Eris btw.

[earnest phoenix]

yep

store invite counts + their code before an user joins

user joins

check all invite counts

look what increased with 1

return that code

[astral quail]

oh shit

that's pretty smart

[earnest phoenix]

Lol

Now all you should check out is HOW to do it in eris xD

[slender thistle]

@winged shell what database do you even want to use

[winged shell]

anything that i can use

[slender thistle]

I have only used sqlite and mongodb so far

[topaz fjord]

a database is where data hides so its safe from corruption and ram which is where dead memory sections go

mongodb >>> *

[winged shell]

im aware on what a database is

[slender thistle]

Aye sir

[winged shell]

i just dont know how to use/make one

[slender thistle]

mongodb is gud :^)

[winged shell]

still using discord.py not discord.js

[slender thistle]

google.com

[winged shell]

oml

[slender thistle]

@carmine echo People use what they want

[carmine echo]

ok

[slender thistle]

@hollow fulcrum What error is that even

[hollow fulcrum]

idek

[slender thistle]

All I can guess from there is your [] + [] shit

[hollow fulcrum]

i fixed it now

a long time ago

[slender thistle]

Oh actually nvm, list + list works too

[carmine echo]

list

array

Which is better?

[slender thistle]

Opinions differ

I am used to lists, so I'll vote for list

[topaz fjord]

golang slice is better

[carmine echo]

arr.slice(1, 5)

[topaz fjord]

// array of string
[]string

// array of ints
[]int

[carmine echo]

len(str)

str.length

Which is better?

[topaz fjord]

len

[carmine echo]

no

[topaz fjord]

bc go has it aswell

// Object with type string: string
map[string]string

[slender thistle]

As I said already, it's about opinions, not "X is better than Y because I Want It To Be Like That"

[carmine echo]

You're obviously really wrong

[topaz fjord]

he isn't tbh

[carmine echo]

All languages are trash.

Apart....

assembly

[slender thistle]

Okay, your opinion is yours. I am not the one to tell you what to like.

[carmine echo]

So you can't tell when something is obvious sarcasm.

ok

[slender thistle]

Got you there boi :^)

[inner jewel]

python lists are called that because of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_(abstract_data_type)

[warm quarry]

Someone is trying to get my bot removed for “spamming his server” even though I didn’t spam it. People in my server spammed them but I didn’t know anything about it. How do I make sure that DBL won’t remove my bot?

[earnest phoenix]

tell the person they are a moron

they can't unless they try to impersonate you and somehow trick the moderators, also this is the development channel. (Pst. someone was asking to do that previously)

and blacklist them from your bot

[slim heart]

alright so i keep getting errors from phin right

and its saying all these aren't valid links what not

but it shouldn't be trying to get all of them because they dont .match(/http/)

[sick cloud]

urls need a http and stuff and all so, yeah your regex is a bit broken

[slim heart]

how do i fix it lol?

?

[topaz fjord]

doesn't really work https://regex101.com/r/FUM9nQ/1/

[slim heart]

ok well the same thing happens when i do arg[i].match(/http/gi)

[earnest phoenix]

that errir is not even related to ur regex

ur just a brainlet and making a request to an argument

instead of joining it into 1 string

idk what ur doing

or are u doing some magic

i mean starting with http isnt right but still

[slim heart]

I'm trying to test if each argument might contain a link and if it does request the link to see if its a valid website

[earnest phoenix]

🤔

is this some anti link spam feature

[slim heart]

no

[earnest phoenix]

u know somebody will just put a link and get ur bots ip

then ddos

so u shouldnt do that

[slim heart]

It's too prevent my censor bot from picking up website links that contain random characters and ends up censoring

[earnest phoenix]

ah ok

[slim heart]

and also with this you wouldnt be posting anything so it wont send the ip

[earnest phoenix]

uhh what?

[slim heart]

or atleast thats what the person said above lol

i asked this question be4

[earnest phoenix]

im pretty sure it will send HEAD request or something

[slim heart]

and then i started actually trying to do it and it does this

[earnest phoenix]

whatever link ur using it will 100% get ur ip

[slim heart]

if so then tell @sick cloud that

[earnest phoenix]

lmao tony

[sick cloud]

what

[earnest phoenix]

also JPB u should do /regex/.test(string) to get boolean

for the if

[slim heart]

just did that still does the same thing

[earnest phoenix]

just a nitpick

[slim heart]

it trys to run phin on everything regardless of it it matches the regex???

[earnest phoenix]

[slim heart]

idk y

@sick cloud do you know why

u told me to use phin

[sick cloud]

no

its your regex

not phin

[slim heart]

how?

.match and .test have never failed me before why now?

[earnest phoenix]

do a console.log in the if for regex match see if it matches always

[slim heart]

[earnest phoenix]

sure ur not doing phin somewhere else? lmao

check line numbers in ur error

[slim heart]

wait a second

[earnest phoenix]

no way

[slim heart]

its running phin

but its not doing this:

[earnest phoenix]

[earnest phoenix]

then its somewhere else

[slim heart]

qwedjkqwedhuiwqjd

whatd i say

[earnest phoenix]

check line number in error

[slim heart]

its phin

umm....

my failed attempt from earlier

is what was killing the code

[earnest phoenix]

did u leave it in?

[slim heart]

[earnest phoenix]

IM DEAD

[slim heart]

and im back once again

2 second later

because even if its a thing it still errors

like it gets status code 200

actually i think i have to do it in editedswearfilter because the whole thing yeah

lol

y e e ee ee es

and it still doesnt work

ok

yk what

hhh

idec

lol

[valid frigate]

what are you making

[steel heath]

How can I make my bot leave the server in another shard

[earnest phoenix]

ipc

[manic badger]

What are shards?

[earnest phoenix]

google

[steel heath]

o wait i think broadcasting is working lol

[sick cloud]

broadcast eval

[quartz kindle]

broadcasteval if guild.id === id -> leave

[earnest phoenix]

well dont servers get assigned to shard based on id?

[steel heath]

ye i was just confused because of this, thanks ^^

[earnest phoenix]

some formula iirc

so no need to broadcast

u can calculate which one to send to

idk if d.js can do that. eris btw

[quartz kindle]

(this.guilds.get(id) ? this.guilds.get(id).leave() : return) ?

xd

[sick cloud]

^

[earnest phoenix]

but return isn't an expression

[placid flax]

so that webhook thing from yesterday was a really good idea

not only do i not have to use a bot, but i can run a simple webserver to listen and post said webhook

n0w i just have to teach nginx to behave

aka website/api redirects internally to webapp:12514

but website/api:80 doesnt

[earnest phoenix]

I used dnd in client.user.setStatus and it didn’t work

[sick cloud]

what lib

[inner jewel]

http://yourdomain/api is the same as http://yourdomain:80/api

http implicitly uses port 80

https uses 443

[earnest phoenix]

Nvm it was a typo

[placid flax]

i should be moar clear

http://mydomain/api redirects to mydomain:<some weird port>

$ curl http://<my domain>/api -X POST -d @test.json
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
  0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--     0curl: (7) Failed to connect to <my domain> port 80: Connection refused

eg this

/etc/nginx/sites-available/default:

        location /api {
                proxy_pass http://localhost:21514/;
                proxy_http_version 1.1;
                proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
                proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
                proxy_set_header Host $host;
                proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        }

this might be out of the scope of this channel tbh

[topaz fjord]

does the / endpoint exist on your server

@placid flax

[placid flax]

as in /api?

ohhhhhhhh

my "web app" is trying to be /

@app.route('/', methods=['POST'])
async def listener(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        #print(request.json)
        
        #return HTTPResponse(body=request.json,status=200,content_type='application/json')
        the_embed = await build_embed(request.json)
        webhook.send(embed=the_embed)
        return HTTPResponse(status=200)
    else:
        raise exceptions.abort(400)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=21514)

i SUPPOSE i could try making it /api instead of /, that might do something

[topaz fjord]

I usually put the vps ip instead of localhost but idk if that could be the problem

[placid flax]

yea cause im using 0.0.0.0 on the other 3 web apps i have running

i mean i can curl to <mydomain>:<weridport> and it works fine

but i cant curl <mydomain>/api

[earnest phoenix]

help me

[earnest phoenix]

# yum install youtube-dl

[sinful lotus]

thats not ytdl, thats different to what we use lmao

it even plays, maybe its just on you

[earnest phoenix]

it makes me more when not much people facing the issue

[sinful lotus]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[earnest phoenix]

oooooooof

[sinful lotus]

for sure its clearly in your code

or the lib

not youtube

[earnest phoenix]

my code

was working fine

always has been working fine

@sinful lotus what lib are you?

[sinful lotus]

Javascript

Discord.js

[earnest phoenix]

o

:(

discord.py

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

i need a bot in js now

thats is it my bot is going to be coded in js

[oblique sequoia]

blocked

[earnest phoenix]

Because i am freaking done with those stupid stuff

[shy rose]

simple but quick q whats the max number of bots a user can own?

[quartz kindle]

is there a limit?

never heard of one

[sick cloud]

25

[shy rose]

25bots?

[sick cloud]

25 bots/dev apps

it was raised from 10

[shy rose]

k thanks 😄

[sick cloud]

np

[topaz fjord]

regex is hard

[quartz kindle]

25 per discord account?

[topaz fjord]

it literally took me forever to do this

reg := fmt.Sprintf(`<[@!?]+?%s>$|^%s[a-zA-z]+$`, s.State.User.ID, regExpEsc("tb!!"))

[quartz kindle]

ew regex

[shy rose]

thats a pretty simple regex lol

[topaz fjord]

idfk regex

ok

so it wasnt simple to me

[quartz kindle]

i cant regex either

[winged shell]

Can I pretty please with a cherry on top have a tutorial on SQLite because I'm dumb :(

(im using discord.py)

[topaz fjord]

https://stackabuse.com/a-sqlite-tutorial-with-python/

[wise bridge]

Don't forget to use a lib such as aiosqlite

[earnest phoenix]

Anyone knows why this happens?

[earnest phoenix]

try node bot in console

[amber stone]

what are shards?

[earnest phoenix]

Does anyone know how to run a script when you start a node application?

style="width:100.2% margin-right:20px!important"

there would be no colour

when i do it

well gray

ops what ever

[bright spear]

@amber stone multiple connections to the discord API because the max for one shard is 2500 servers, sometimes each shard runs in a separate process

[earnest phoenix]

am i missing something?

yea

i did

mess everything up

nvm

[tawdry anchor]

Hello! Is there any date when bot certification application will open? (I know early november, but is there ~date?)

[earnest phoenix]

this is broken

oh

[tawdry anchor]

apt-get

[earnest phoenix]

t

yea

i just saw

thanks

guys?

[tawdry anchor]

lol

apatche?

[earnest phoenix]

yea

i am going to host my website

pal

[tawdry anchor]

apache2

But I recommend nginx

[earnest phoenix]

apatche

lmao

thanks, umm whats the differents

i heard nginx is better

but i never tried it

nginx handle many concurrent connection better m9

aaaa

ok

fine

where is nginx directory?

type "whereis nginx" in console

or google

i got it

but the issue

or /etc/nginx

is

lol

the issue is

it doesnt work

!!

like the directory does

check status. is it running?

but when i put the website in the direcotry it doesnt work

is configured correctly?

do you need to config nignx?

idk if default will just work for the www data folder or whatever

best to view a tutorial

i always just wipe the config since im using it as reverse proxy lol

ouch

[earnest phoenix]

guys

is there is anyway

i could stream music on a vps without it the sound stopping when i close remote connect?

why would you do that

[earnest phoenix]

Hey, i need help. The console says DiscordapiError: Unknown User

[young cradle]

You have provided either a user you don't have shared servers with or an invalid one.

[steel heath]

why am i getting "Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 message listeners added." when i use broadcasteval lol

[steel heath]

how can i use internal sharding thing and is that really possible to get guild datas in a shard from a different shard without broadcasteval

[sick cloud]

anybody able to tell me how to update to babel v7

[sonic glade]

Look, I have this error: Error: Can not find module './staff.js' but I do not have in any file a require or include of that file, what could it be?

[slim heart]

Is it coming from your file alone or is it coming from an npm package?

send the exact console

[sonic glade]

My github don´t have module.js

[earnest phoenix]

@sonic glade that is from node.js itself

[slim heart]

look at line 550

[sonic glade]

And what can I do ?

I have 197 lines ...

[earnest phoenix]

and it says that it can't find a file called staff.js

[sonic glade]

These are my const and var

.

[earnest phoenix]

yes

but theres no file called staff.js

in your directory

[sonic glade]

but .. what is the problem then?

I can not use my bot thanks to this error

[earnest phoenix]

that there is no file called staff.js

[slim heart]

also why do u have two discords?

check music.js is the only thing i could think of?

[sonic glade]

I do not know, one has capital letters in the D and the other does not, that's what makes me not error

[slim heart]

oh- anyways---

yeah, wait is the github public?

[sonic glade]

Yes

[slim heart]

Send?

[sonic glade]

DM send

[earnest phoenix]

why would you need his github

theres no problem revolving around his github

[sonic glade]

I do not know, but it's public so I could see it anyway

[slim heart]

I'm looking at the code

ohohohoh

yeah

try using just ""

[sonic glade]

ok?

[earnest phoenix]

literally all he needs to do is create a file called staff.js in the current directory

[slim heart]

well he shouldn't have too

[sonic glade]

Same error :c

[earnest phoenix]

but hes trying to get a file that doesn't exist

[sonic glade]

😐

[slim heart]

yes so get rid of the thing calling the file

he should actually fix the problem instead of doing some halfassed solution

[sonic glade]

If I do not have the file created or anything that requires or includes it, why does the error come out?

[earnest phoenix]

changing the `` in a file to a "" is not a part of the problem

[slim heart]

Was just trying

Atleast I'm not telling him to make a useless file

[earnest phoenix]

that he is trying to get

@sonic glade if you don't know the file just stop trying to get it

[slim heart]

No he's not trying to thats the point

He doesn't want to get "staff.js"

[earnest phoenix]

yes

[sonic glade]

Gentlemen, I added the code that of the command / staff and I started with these errors, but I do not understand why they come out if I do not have the file nor the require and / or the include

[slim heart]

first off, you should make the / as a prefix

im just kinda of throwin pots out

[earnest phoenix]

@sonic glade can i see this github thanks

[sonic glade]

Resolved, thanks to both of us, I deleted a code that had an old command reset the bot and now it was fixed, I do not know what that command would have to be but good @earnest phoenix @slim heart

😛

[slim heart]

o o f

[earnest phoenix]

hmm

[sonic glade]

Is there any way to make an embed that when using for example: / owners shows you the users with the owner role?

[bright spear]

yes

how to do it depends on the lib you use

[sonic glade]

I use discord.js

[bright spear]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Role?scrollTo=members

[sonic glade]

How can I use this ?

[rocky mesa]

Is there a way to join a server through my bot. Like my bot has been joining servers and I want to join one of them. Like a command !backdoor [server id] and it will send me the invite to the server? Im new to code so sorry if i dont understand anything

[west raptor]

what lib?

[rocky mesa]

oh sorry

discord.js

[west raptor]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildChannel?scrollTo=createInvite looks like this is one of the ways

just fetch a random channel from the server

and create an invite on the channel

[rocky mesa]

what if im not in the server though

[west raptor]

(btw i think this might be against tos lol)

[rocky mesa]

ive seen other big bots use it

[west raptor]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

wait

wdym

[rocky mesa]

about what

[west raptor]

SkarffToday at 19:32
what if im not in the server though

[earnest phoenix]

do not add a backdoor

unless the users request an action

it shouldnt do anything

[west raptor]

or your bot has a tos

stating you can do that

lol

[earnest phoenix]

do not add a backdoor

[rocky mesa]

okay..

its for support though

like if they need help they can do !support and it will send a team an invite

[ruby dust]

What

The fuck

[rocky mesa]

nvm

[bright spear]

help should show the command list

[rocky mesa]

example

[ruby dust]

Help is a common command to get a brief information about a bot or how to use it, not to ask for support to scrap invites to those servers

[rocky mesa]

it was an example command

[ruby dust]

A terrible example then

[rocky mesa]

ill edit it then jeez

[ruby dust]

Either way, it's not bad to have it, as long as the user fully committed for support to join and actually knows what the command does

[rocky mesa]

ya

idk how to make it though

[bright spear]

dream already sent the link

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildChannel?scrollTo=createInvite

[rocky mesa]

yeah but im dumb lmao

idk how to incorporate .createInvite() into a command

ill go to stackoverflow to ask 1 sec

[west raptor]

fetch the channel

if any

and use channel.createInvite()

Also it would be better just to send a support server invite for a support command.

[rocky mesa]

would guild.channels.first().createInvite() work?

also yeah I realise it now but im in to deep

[ruby dust]

That will force it to use the first channel, and there is a possibility that that channel may now be accessible for creating invites

You should loop through channels and see which one allows you to create the invite to

[west raptor]

it wouldnt work anyways

[ruby dust]

Channel can also mean a category channel

[west raptor]

^

[rocky mesa]

oh

[bright spear]

it would be easier to just try it for the channel they tried it in

[west raptor]

^

[rocky mesa]

ya

[bright spear]

but it would be more likely to work if u just go to the guild invites list and get the first one

[west raptor]

or you can filter through the type the channel

^^ Which can be done by doing https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Guild?scrollTo=fetchInvites

[earnest phoenix]

any librarys that have voice recognition that would work with a discord voice channel? like a fs stream?

[sick cloud]

you'd have to code voice recognition yourself

but discord.js might be the best there

it has onvoicestream and all afaik

[zenith moss]

I’m curious, I’ve seen a lot of bots show how many commands have been ran since the last restart. Anyone have any idea on how I would do that?

[bright spear]

just increment something whenever a command is used

[zenith moss]

I’ve doing that but ehh

My brain is hurting right now trying to get something done before I get off

[lament rock]

So. I've been working on a little project which requires me to emulate memory

let memory = {}

I call something like:

new Table("U", "320067006521147393", [1, 2, 3]);

And it does what it's supposed to but I'm wondering if there might be a better storage method I could use for what I'm trying to achieve at least or if there's any way I can improve on this

[worldly steeple]

@lament rock The void keyword in destroy(), in this case, does nothing. You can remove it and behavior will be the same. return this.addresses; in the constructor also does nothing, you can remove it.

[lament rock]

so, if I were to set something to = a new Table, it would be pointless to return an array?

[worldly steeple]

yes, "this" is always returned from the constructor, you don't get to choose what to return from it

[lament rock]

Ah right. I could just call this.addresses

[sick cloud]

so does anyone know how to get babel to compile all code in a dir

not just one file

[keen drift]

How you compiling it right now

[steel heath]

Anyone know how to use internal sharding in d.js (master?)

[sinful lotus]

^ you just add it on option.shards

on your client options

[steel heath]

o, is that all? And can i ask you a question about if you know how it works

[sinful lotus]

well I never tried it myself on the production code, but on internal sharding, you dont create new client instance per shard

although things can get problematic when you use internal sharding on a big bot

[steel heath]

how so

[sinful lotus]

because javascript is single threaded

if you got a lot of guilds for example 20k, you are stuffing 20k guilds on a single thread

[steel heath]

oof i have 28k i need the only one client instance bevause i dont want to broadcast eval everytime on the dashboard for guild stats etc.

[sinful lotus]

you will suffer from single thread disadvantage tho

if you dont want to broadcastEval why not make the shards send a message to the master process

then master process will do the computation and get the data from there

[steel heath]

umm, can u explain it

[sinful lotus]

Shards will send a message to the Master Prcoess through this, and on that message is the data you want from that shard.
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/master/class/ShardClientUtil?scrollTo=send

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/master/class/ShardingManager?scrollTo=shards
Then access each shard data from this in master process.

inside the shard object of sharding manager there is a message event
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/master/class/Shard?scrollTo=e-message

[steel heath]

well, how am i going to find the guild and send the data to the dashboard

[sinful lotus]

send a message to shards from the master process. if shards can send message to master process, master process can send messages to shards too

and on the shard, process the data you want to get, then only the shard that has the data will send back a message to the master process

[steel heath]

oh ok, thank you very much i'll try that

[hardy sierra]

Guys

How can i make like

Name1, name2,name3```

That has "ADMINISTRATOR" permission

there

[earnest phoenix]

let question = args.slice(1).join(" ");

1 is the 2nd element

array start at 0

so ur removing the first word

[amber junco]

huh

yes

Is it possible to fix?

[earnest phoenix]

yes... just dont slice the first element

[amber junco]

oh ok

So I should cut out:
let question = args.slice(1).join(" ");

right?

[earnest phoenix]

no, you need to join args, but you dont need to slice the first element

[amber junco]

So the code should be:
let question = args.(1).join(" ");

Or something

I am a retard so yeah...

[earnest phoenix]

[amber junco]

bear with me pls

Is that Java?

[west raptor]

huh

[amber junco]

nvm

Ye I get it...

I just fixed it

Thanks

Hey, I have a daily command. But the problem is that quick.db is always crashed, and I decided to do it on sqlite3. But I don't know. Someone could help me?

[ruby dust]

what exactly is the problem

[slender thistle]

Not knowing SQLite3?

[earnest phoenix]

that quick.db is always crashing @ruby dust

[ruby dust]

still no context, show code at least

[earnest phoenix]

@ruby dust

[ruby dust]

I don't see the sqlite code, or does it differ between languages?

I'm using python fyi

[slender thistle]

quick.db crashing?

[ruby dust]

also, in my experience you don't need to require the file itself, you just need to let sqlite connect to it

how to use discord js shard's sending message to master process and read it from other shards...

[sick cloud]

https://discordjs.guide/#/sharding/additional-information?id=shard-messages

might help

[steel heath]

o thank you

it didnt change anything and i dont know why

it doesnt log anything when i do client.shard.send()

[sick cloud]

process.send

[earnest phoenix]

            return Math.floor(Math.random() * Math.floor(max));
          }
let flipped = getRandomInt(2);
        if(flipped == "1") {
//code
} else {
//code
}```

Why doesn't that every randomize?

[sick cloud]

let me guess

you copied that code off the internet

and thought it'd work

[earnest phoenix]

er no

[sick cloud]

so your saying you made that code

[earnest phoenix]

Indeed.

[sick cloud]

lol, yeah right

theres a simple error there anyways

dream dont spoon him

[west raptor]

yea i know

I see it

[earnest phoenix]

Alright, get the fuck out of here if your not going to help. Don't just say that there is an error because I obviously don't see it.

[gilded blaze]

When comparing the flipped variable it is an integer. You compare to a string.

[sick cloud]

@gilded blaze spoonfeeder

[gilded blaze]

shut it

[sick cloud]

"get the fuck out of here"

do you know js

if not

i suggest you google it

https://www.google.com/search?q=learn+js&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

[west raptor]

https://www.codecademy.com/

[earnest phoenix]

@gilded blaze Does't 2 equal signs compare strings?

[sick cloud]

you need 3

[gilded blaze]

Learn JS

[sick cloud]

or just do value == 0

[gilded blaze]

and he doesn't need 3

[sick cloud]

use a number

why do you wanna compare a number to a string anyways

[earnest phoenix]

oof no ""?

[sick cloud]

exactly

if (flipped == 1) {
    /* code here */
} else {
    /* more code here */
}

[earnest phoenix]

spoonfeed

lmfao

i think that i can manage removing a ""

[west raptor]

its not spoonfeed but ok

[earnest phoenix]

he gave me the code

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

thats the exact definition of spoonfeeding

[west raptor]

oh wow an if and else statement such spoonfeed!!11!!1!

[slim heart]

What's actually going wrong here? Because this only happens if there's only 1 arg (after I .split(' ')) but if it's one argument it always does this idk...

for(i=0; i < arg.length; i++) {
            if(arg[i].match(/http/gi)) {

How to put a list of servers into embed pages like i want to separate 50 servers in 1 page

[slim heart]

@visual zenith What's your goal. And also your lib?

[visual zenith]

my lib is discord.js

and my goal is to put 50 servers in each page

[slim heart]

Ok so I can help you

So wdym by page?

[visual zenith]

embed page

[slim heart]

Like a website page?

Oh I see

[visual zenith]

like page 1 has 50 servers and page 2 has another/different 50 servers

i already mapped it out

[slim heart]

SO there's probably a much better way of solving this, but you see I'm dumb so what I'm gonna tell you to do is forEach your guild array and push it to a separate array and then use your key for every 50

l o l

[visual zenith]

forEach?

[slim heart]

I mean it'd work-

yeah

[visual zenith]

like this?

  const guildNames = client.guilds.map(g => g.name).forEach()

[slim heart]

so just do js let srr = [] bot.guilds.array().forEach(guild => { srr.push(guild.whateverpartoftheguildyourtryingtodisplay) })

you want guild names?

[visual zenith]

yes

[slim heart]

so

let srr = []
client.guilds.array().forEach(guild => {
srr.push(guild.name)
})```

and that'll give you a list containing all the guild names

so it'd look like
srr = ["guild1", "guild2"] so on

[visual zenith]

i only have 74 so just up to 74?

[slim heart]

Well actually your map does the same thing

so

im confused what you really need help with-

[visual zenith]

like page 1 has 50 servers and page 2 has another/different 50 servers

or one page has 50 and the other 24

[slim heart]

Oh so you need help actually putting them into the embed?

[visual zenith]

yes

absolutely

[slim heart]

Ok yeah I can't really help you past that point, if I told you what to do you'd end up with code looking like:

embed = {
blah
fields = guildNames[0]
fields = guildNames[1]
fields = guildNames[2]
fields = guildNames[3]

[visual zenith]

blah ?

[slim heart]

or well if you want to actually if you just want to put only the name

let str = ""
for(i=0; i<50; i++) {
str = str +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}```

m a y b e

try that?

Also

I don't think you could fit 50 server names in one embed

since it's a limit of 2000 characters

[visual zenith]

so how many?

10?

[slim heart]

Not sure

It depends on what people name there servers

I mean I think you'd be fine with 20-30?

But people can just make their server name really long and it'd screw up whatever page it's on

[visual zenith]

once i use that code u gave me

do i just console log?

[slim heart]

yeah str should be a guild name then a line break then the next guild name etc.

[visual zenith]

so i just attach it to a embed?

[slim heart]

Just replace that i<50 with whatever number of guilds you want in it

[visual zenith]

what about the next page after one reaction?

[slim heart]

const guildNames = bot.guilds.map(g => g.name)
let str = ""
for(i=0; i<100; i++) {
if(i<50) continue;
str = str +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}```

so that'll do 50 to 100

again probably a better way of doing it but thats my janky way

[visual zenith]

wait so what happens if it goes over 100? like i press the ➡ 2-3 times?

[slim heart]

then just make more of those

that i<100 is the end of the number so (50-100) and then that if(i<50) continue is the start so (50-100)

so here I'll build you some code for up to 200

[visual zenith]

now.... how would I put this all into the embed?

since its an array

[slim heart]

const guildNames = bot.guilds.map(g => g.name)
let oneto50 = ""
let fiftyto100 = ""
let onehto150 = ""
let twohto200 = ""
for(i=0; i<50; i++) {
if(!guildNames[i]) break;
oneto50 = oneto50 +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}
for(i=0; i<100; i++) {
if(i<50) continue;
if(!guildNames[i]) break;
fiftyto100 = fiftyto100 +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}
for(i=0; i<150; i++) {
if(i<100) continue;
if(!guildNames[i]) break;
onehto150 = onehto150 +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}
for(i=0; i<200; i++) {
if(i<150) continue;
if(!guildNames[i]) break;
twohto200 = twohto200 +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}```

no all of these are giving you a string

so in the embed just say the variable and it should put them all in an embed

[earnest phoenix]

thats very sloppy code

[visual zenith]

xD

[slim heart]

shhh

it works

[earnest phoenix]

can we laugh at it

[slim heart]

So look

when i do it, it gives me a guild name, then it line breaks, then a guild name

so in the embed

just use the variable oneto50 and it'll add them in (i think)

I'm not the best with embed but I'm pretty sure that'd work?

[earnest phoenix]

[visual zenith]

but im using this code for embed pages

                forwards.on('collect', r => {
                    if (page === pages.length) return;
                    page++;
                    embed.setDescription(pages[page - 1])
                    embed.setFooter(`Page ${page} of ${pages.length}`);
                    msg.edit(embed)
                });

[slim heart]

I have a seperate embed developer so

[earnest phoenix]

wtf

are you too shit to make an embed

[slim heart]

Ok well you should be making an embed with json imo

[earnest phoenix]

no

[visual zenith]

i know how to but im having karma

[slim heart]

https://leovoel.github.io/embed-visualizer/

[earnest phoenix]

they are sloppy

[slim heart]

use that

[earnest phoenix]

no

dont

[visual zenith]

this is my reaction embed pages

        const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
            .setColor('RANDOM')
            .setFooter(`Page ${page} of ${pages.length}`)
            .setDescription()
        message.channel.send(embed).then(msg => {
            msg.react('⬅').then(r => {
                msg.react('➡')

                const backwardsFilter = (reaction, user) => reaction.emoji.name === '⬅' && user.id === message.author.id;
                const fowardsFilter = (reaction, user) => reaction.emoji.name === '➡' && user.id === message.author.id;

                const backwards = msg.createReactionCollector(backwardsFilter, {
                    time: 60000
                });
                const forwards = msg.createReactionCollector(fowardsFilter, {
                    time: 60000
                });

                backwards.on('collect', r => {
                    if (page === 1) return;
                    page--;
                    embed.setDescription(pages[page - 1])
                    embed.setFooter(`Page ${page} of ${pages.length}`);
                    msg.edit(embed)
                });

                forwards.on('collect', r => {
                    if (page === pages.length) return;
                    page++;
                    embed.setDescription(pages[page - 1])
                    embed.setFooter(`Page ${page} of ${pages.length}`);
                    msg.edit(embed)
                });
            });
        });

[earnest phoenix]

const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
    .setTitle('this is so easy')
    .setDescription('mmlol');
msg.channel.send(embed);

[slim heart]

i guess just make .setDescription(oneto50)

[earnest phoenix]

v12 btw

[slim heart]

Not sure how it works so-

[earnest phoenix]

just

[visual zenith]

[slim heart]

const Discord  = require('discord.js')
const guildNames = bot.guilds.map(g => g.name)
let oneto50 = ""
for(i=0; i<50; i++) {
if(!guildNames[i]) break;
oneto50 = oneto50 +"\n" + guildNames[i]
}
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
            .setColor('RANDOM')
            .setFooter(`Page 1 of 69`)
            .setDescription(oneto50)
        message.channel.send(embed)```

here

[visual zenith]

and put emotes on it too

[slim heart]

Wym?

[visual zenith]

like \➡ and \⬅

[slim heart]

Yeah ik

[visual zenith]

so it edits the embed and changes it

[slim heart]

I was just replacing the top part of ur code

[visual zenith]

to the second page

i got the top part already

[slim heart]

I'm not gonna write the whole thing for you

Just use the same concept man

[visual zenith]

do i need to change this?

                forwards.on('collect', r => {
                    if (page === pages.length) return;
                    page++;
                    embed.setDescription(pages[page - 1])
                    embed.setFooter(`Page ${page} of ${pages.length}`);
                    msg.edit(embed)
```?

like the description part

[slim heart]

hmph

I think so

?

Lol

[visual zenith]

but it needs to change after every reaction clicked

[slim heart]

just do like if(page == 1) somevar = oneto50
if(page == 2) somevar = fiftyto100
if(page == 3) somevar = onehto150
if(page == 4) somevar = onefiftyto200

and then setDescription(somevar)

Like I could write it for you but I'm not about to spoonfeed you code. Even if its my shitty code, its still spoonfeeding

[visual zenith]

🥄 👱

is it possible to do page[i++] ? is there a similar way just like that?

[amber junco]

Is it possible to have a command ex:
!servericon

and the bot gives you the server icon

and
ex:
!embed hi there

is it possible?

[bitter sundial]

somevar = page * 50

[amber junco]

[serene cobalt]

taco gets alll the internet points

[amber junco]

I did, none of them are using the same message handler

[earnest phoenix]

its not working because (and if you read the error you would know this)..

it must be a string

or buffer

[bright spear]

Lol

[earnest phoenix]

if u make attachment u have to download the file iirc and send a buffer

not just send the url

or just put in in an embed

[amber junco]

oh ok

[bright spear]

The string option is a url iirc

But they are trying to do user.displayGuildURL

[earnest phoenix]

undefined

story of every d.js users life

!embed Hi there

[earnest phoenix]

@amber junco what is that lol

[amber junco]

nvm

[earnest phoenix]

lets take a minute of silence to appreciate that we are live

Now that it has been a minute, is is possible to add rich presence to a bot?

[slender thistle]

Nope

[amber junco]

How do I find a channel's id?

[mossy vine]

message.channel.id

[amber junco]

No.. like in numbers

264445053596991498/272764566411149314 <=== is this channel id ?

[gilded blaze]

You need context. If you got the id from a channel then yes it is a channel id.

[amber junco]

client.channels.get("CHANNEL_ID").send(bugreportEmbed);

So.. CHANNEL_ID Would be replaced by, in this instance: 264445053596991498/272764566411149314
right?

[gilded blaze]

If those are channel id's then yeah

[amber junco]

oh ok

That is id for this channel

[quartz kindle]

just one of the numbers, not both

the id for this channel is 272764566411149314

[hushed berry]

wtf

https://vgy.me/Hkl8ig.png

someone managed to get this as their track's position lmfao

[sick cloud]

how do you get rid of this backtick in your bots status

theres literally none there so i'm super confused

[quartz kindle]

it has to be there somewhere

[sick cloud]

it isnt

[earnest phoenix]

send code

[sick cloud]

client.user.setActivity(`yt help [${guildCount}] [${client.shard.id}]`);```

100% not there

[quartz kindle]

console.log(client.shard.id)

[tight heath]

@hushed berry well done

Now use a proper way for those smh

[terse pier]

It's ok with discord terms of service to use

import discord
client = discord.Client()
#few more lines of code
await client.login('<user email>', '<password>')

@tight heath ?

[tight heath]

No?

Automated user accounts are generally banned.

And will get you banned from Discord.

[terse pier]

So, why it's included in that library?

[tight heath]

In which one?

[terse pier]

And there is nothing in documentaion about it

[tight heath]

Also maybe because they didn't deprecate it yet

Because like

Devs also have a life

I mean I didn't believe it at first either; I'll he honest

[quartz kindle]

Discord's API provides a separate type of user account dedicated to automation, called a bot account. Bot accounts can be created through the applications page, and are authenticated using a token (rather than a username and password). Unlike the normal OAuth2 flow, bot accounts have full access to all API routes without using bearer tokens, and can connect to the Real Time Gateway. Automating normal user accounts (generally called "self-bots") outside of the OAuth2/bot API is forbidden, and can result in an account termination if found.```

But here you go

Also perhaps you're using an old version or unmaintained library.
