if you have a stats command you have to change it to get total guilds
steel heath
Uh?

What about getting info from another guild in a dif shard? broadcastEval?
knotty steeple
yes
vernal rivet
yet
knotty steeple
@steel heath help someone wants to shard
vernal rivet
yeet*
vernal rivet
thats good to do
earnest phoenix
I have been a real nerd and creating a .txt document full of notes about sharding before doing it 😂
vernal rivet
is your bot in more than 100 servers?
steel heath
Hai, my DMs are always open smh
vernal rivet
its best to wait till your bot is over 100 servers to start sharding
earnest phoenix
My bot has 155 Servers but I don't mind about memory as I have plenty
vernal rivet
ok
knotty steeple
vernal rivet
check your spelling
vernal rivet
check your import file names
knotty steeple
where
vernal rivet
in your bot code
vernal rivet
wait, this is a service
check the folder for nginx, to make sure it has the .service files in it
knotty steeple
and where is this folder?
vernal rivet

What do you mean "all server owners"?
Like owners of servers who have the bot, or just in general all server owners on discord?
Because the second one would be against ToS.
the owners that have the bot in their server
bright spear
dude dont
earnest phoenix
You can't have more than one
Unless you mean Co-Owner
Then you dm the role
@steel heath How about...just saving the message content
Save yourself the trouble
steel heath
@earnest phoenix well yeah but I'm going to need that for something else in the future
earnest phoenix
why??
steel heath
For caching guilds to DB and not use Discord API for dashboard
steel heath
ive a sharded bot and it's pain in the ass to fetch information from shards, i use the api but there are limits, and on every page refresh, site makes like 3 api requests
steel heath
What about the 1000/hr request limit?
And it's really slow that I'm getting some information from bot and from API, mixed together to run everything correct
earnest phoenix
Why are you constantly requesting the api anyway
steel heath
Channels and roles
earnest phoenix
Don't you do that through your library?
steel heath
Can't get a good result with broadcastEval from other shards
earnest phoenix
Uhm.
steel heath
No role and channel objects
earnest phoenix
If you need help, feel free to ask
but actually think before you do something. lol
steel heath
This was the suggestion of some other people in here, in this channel when I first started coding the dashboard. 
earnest phoenix
Shifting blame 
steel heath
Nah, it sounds not that stupid tbh
earnest phoenix
It doesnt take a genius to understand that this idea is a bad one
steel heath
Not sure, never did something like this before
earnest phoenix
For one, you're storing more data which takes up more space
Two, storing objects with variables such as guild name, icon, etc are prone to change
steel heath
All I know is it's just working slow because of broadcasteval takes long
earnest phoenix
You'll end up fetching new info anyways
Only save constants to your database.
Things that wont change such as snowflakes.

It was just recommended

lmao
bright spear
at least this time they know what lib they're using unlike last time
bright spear
oook well i'll assume you're using 11.4.2
shadow barn
npm i discordjs/discord.js
bright spear
client.voiceConnections will give u a collection of all the voiceconnections @earnest phoenix https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Client?scrollTo=voiceConnections
topaz fjord
@shadow barn that will install master
bright spear
then yu can use voiceConnection.channel to get the channel object
then do channel.createInvite()
shadow barn
which version is the absolute latest dev version of djs?
bright spear
master/12 @shadow barn
shadow barn
How you do i install it?
topaz fjord
You install like you just wrote the command
shadow barn
it's the one i'm already using on my bot
earnest phoenix
But you're asking how to install it
quartz kindle
is the internal sharding thing already merged to master?
earnest phoenix
🤔
quartz kindle
so you could just install master and not care about shards at all?
bright spear
i'll probably switch back to master eventually
well
you'll need to set shardCount: auto
topaz fjord
I don't like internal sharding
earnest phoenix
I agree
Internal sharding just makes the issue of JS being single threaded more apparent
quartz kindle
well, it wont make much of a difference if your vps only has 1 cpu xd
inner jewel
as long as your code doesn't block a single thread can do quite a lot of stuff
i've seen bots with 30+ shards being shared over two cores
earnest phoenix
I see lots of people here using node.js, ignoring async methods and using sync ones.
Thats really painful, as they dont understand the difference
inner jewel

Mentioning it here for any discord.js users, but I've made a little guide on creating your own "reaction help menus", those nice embeds that you react to when you want to change pages.
knotty steeple
you cant make invites for voice channels
sick cloud
get the guild from the channel and make an invite
gilded blaze
You can make invites for voice channels.
coral trellis
quartz kindle
@sick cloud does your guide handle pagination by "unreacting"?
idk if v11 ever fixed that, but you can fix it by changing a couple files in v11 by their v12 versions
earnest phoenix
const guildNames = bot.voiceConnections.map(vc => vc.createInvite).join("\n")
msg.channel.send(guildNames)
Is says can’t send an empty message
May I ask why I can’t get the server owner of this server? I think my codes are correct and this is the only server that my bot can’t get the tag and name
They can’t be correct I can get the owner
sick cloud
@quartz kindle if the bot has permission it'll remove the users reaction, if thats what you mean
earnest phoenix
I did and it didn’t help at all
quartz kindle
@sick cloud yeah that was my problem, but i figured out a way to make "unreacting" also work, that way you dont need to remove the reaction after the user clicks it
west raptor
quartz kindle
basically just backport 2 files from v12 into v11

earnest phoenix
wait
quartz kindle
if you want smaller or equal, then <=
earnest phoenix
wait
boys
how would I make it so it doesn't have to be 2 words to send the message because with args.join(" ").slice(22) it requires a space inbetween 2 args
quartz kindle
wat
earnest phoenix
nvm lol
quartz kindle
you're joining all args into a single string separated by spaces, then removing 22 characters from the beginning of it, then checking if the final string length is 2 or not
maybe there is a better way to do whatever is it you're trying to do xD
earnest phoenix
quartz kindle
well, you're removing 22 characters from the string
sick cloud
yeah how the f are you even getting 22
earnest phoenix
oh lmao right im dumb
i was using it from my ban message and thinking it'd work universally
sick cloud
copy pasting code
sick cloud
biggest newbie error
earnest phoenix
wdym im confused. not asking for spoonfeeding just help explain pls
quartz kindle
you want to check if args length is bigger than 2, so you dont need any of that
just do if(args.length < 2){}
i assume args[0] is the prefix+command and args[1]+ is the message
shadow barn
Which would be better?
- Fetching a random sentence from a .js file using arrays.
- Fetching a random sentence from a json file?
shadow barn
lol but i mean, do they respond differently in time?
quartz kindle
if your array is not too big, like tens of megabytes
better keep it in memory
or load it from a file into a variable
keen drift
does it have to be a json file
just one sentence per line, then you can seek to that line w/o reading it all
a json file meaning parsing the whole thing
quartz kindle
i think hes just asking about array in .js file or array in .json file
keen drift
yeah if it's large enough to need its separate file, perhaps it shouldn't be in json
quartz kindle
well it doesnt matter if its gonna go into memory
if its not bigger than a couple tens of MB
slim heart
cant .js transfer faster but takes longer compared to smaller arrays?
so if it's only like a length of 20 maybe then json will be faster but past that js will be a bit faster
quartz kindle
depends on how you're importing the data i guess
assuming both files will be read at the same average speed from disk, the difference is in how js parses the files
a json would need to be parsed into a js object
a js file would also need to be parsed from string into something usable
slim heart
Yea
keen drift
Here's my take, code base should not contain arbitrary data that it uses, it should be isolated out
slim heart
but the honest time is probably measured in nanoseconds of time difference i really dont think it matters too much lol
quartz kindle
nanoseconds will turn into minutes when you do into gigabytes xD
keen drift
unnecessary bundle size and additional work to edit
slim heart
s h h
keen drift
Reading large data is always better if it's sorted or indexed
JSON file would require entirety of it parsed, but if you seek to it in a standard sentence per line, you can get the result with minimal reading
keen drift
there's a whole big difference between a char[64] and a char[2048]
I tend to not allocate what's not necessary
quartz kindle
yeah
keen drift
best to get in the habit and not wonder why it's so slow after
quartz kindle
but still, the same principles remain, if the database is small, keep it into memory, else use a database
i've never had problems with slowness
¯_(ツ)_/¯
keen drift
well none of the typical application requires that level of speed
I'll be damned if my binary file ships with 10 mb+
quartz kindle
well, i agree on that point
but not much you can do when you have to ship node with an entire browser inside it
for a simple desktop app
quartz kindle
no, im just saying
bright spear
Ur thinking about electron
quartz kindle
like, you can easily build software with less than 5mb of code with lower level languages like the C family
you wont ever get close to that with js
but thats the price of multiplatform
the tradeoff between performance and compatiblity
high performance machine specific code, or lower performance works everywhere code
floral bloom
How do I make a bot create an invite for a server and send it in a message?
earnest phoenix
what lib
i think it has something to do with the coding process? id have to pull it up real quick
floral bloom
How would I do that if I'm not in the server?
earnest phoenix
you wouldnt
floral bloom
O.o
earnest phoenix
you cant just use bots to hack into servers
you can only do that if they have perms
floral bloom
I won't 😔 🤦
sinful lotus
also the bot must be in that server
floral bloom
It is
sinful lotus
if it isnt on that server
earnest phoenix
thats what i meant
since it is in the server you can get a channel in that server and do .createInvite
sinful lotus
get a chanel from that server and use .createInvite
floral bloom
I tried
haughty jewel
...wha wen wron
floral bloom
It didn't work. I don't know what's wrong O.o
haughty jewel
...surely there must be an error
wait its js
i assume you are getting nulls and undefineds?
sinful lotus
tbh
a simple
guild.channels.first().createInvite would do it assuming ur bot has perms
channels is a collection
ofc using .creatInvite will not work on that
valid frigate
you sure you cant just do guild.createInvite() and the pass options
pass options*
excuse me
floral bloom
What are the options I need to do this??
valid frigate
scroll up it's in the docs
floral bloom
Oh
valid frigate
yeah
and never mind you can't do guild.createInvite() you'd have to follow what mr certified developer above wrote
floral bloom
Lol
sinful lotus
if its not borked ^
floral bloom
I did:
guild.channels.first().createInvite()
And it just gave me:
[object Promise]
valid frigate
now apparently past v12 you wont have to spawn multiple instances of the bot
well are you console logging its value
sinful lotus
we are here to help u direct in the right way, not ur personal debugger :/
valid frigate
the docs has it all ig
floral bloom
valid frigate
and general rule of thumb if you get a promise returned use await
valid frigate
es2017 why
sinful lotus
depends on the code structure, if u dont want some promise block the code below it cause its awaited use .then or .catch
specially if its a fire and forget promise, but u still want to catch it if it do errors
floral bloom
Huh
valid frigate
ok so basically
sinful lotus
just console.log it
valid frigate
you can choose between
sinful lotus
u will see the answer on that code, using eval wont let you see inside of that
unless ur eval supports async
valid frigate
await guild.channels.first().createInvite() or guild.channels.first().createInvite().then()
imo id go with await
floral bloom
It said "Can't use await outside an async function"
...but it is in an async function! O.o
sullen path
But it isn't
floral bloom
?
sullen path
If it says it's not in an async function, then it isn't and you messed up indentation
valid frigate
indentation doesn't matter
bright spear
no its js
sullen path
Ok

yeah
jagged sinew
hmm
but i need to make it not sound like its some scam
like To unlock this feature you must authenticate by clicking this link: votelink
tepid jasper
many bots do that, using votes in some way like that is actually a minimum requirement for certification:
- Implementation of voting in your bot (e.g rewards on user vote. Minium being a command with a link to vote)
@tepid jasper you dont need to vote lock
tepid jasper
I know, but that's the way many bots implement it
bright spear
Well remember that the following is not allowed:
"Vote locking" a large percentage AND/OR majority of your bots commands AND/OR features.
Punishing users of your bot AND/OR community for not voting.

i mean one of the biggest features on my bot is this
but not all servers are going to use it

can anyone here do lil site for me i see css masters here and i feel outnumbered

coral trellis
I believe you need to code it a specific way to do that
earnest phoenix
Couldn't I use a broadcast eval?
coral trellis
brittle nova
@sick cloud so I have to do that with every error code?
I want to make an error code handler that will get you to an ejs page called error.ejs or something
brittle nova
Do I have to do that with every code though?

to shut down a shard i think you can just do shard.kill()

How can i get the vps uptime?
like my bot uptime is 10 minutes
but the server uptime is 1 hours, I want to use the server uptime but confused to get the uptime from the server
bright spear
it would probably depend on your language and os
earnest phoenix
The os.uptime() not a real uptime from vps/server
earnest phoenix
I use discord.js
and the os: Linux @sullen path
sullen path
You can try running the command uptime and scrape the output
earnest phoenix
but the output is bot uptime, not vps/server uptime
sullen path
This process was restarted yesterday
earnest phoenix
How can i put that uptime to command if that from exec
bright spear
sullen path
You use whatever library allows you to run shell commands and get the output
Or that
Same thing
bright spear
earnest phoenix
Aww okay, lemme try thanks 😅
brittle nova
Can you update a package's dependencies?
keen drift
not w/o forking it
keen drift
yeah cause package have specified dependency version, otherwise they'll be broken
brittle nova
how can I convert a language code to a flag emoji?
without making a l{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}ng object
bright spear
thats for countries not languages
i made https://advaith.fun/flags/en.png to use in my bot (change en to another language) but its images not emojis
keen drift
@brittle nova can you show an example of language code
keen drift
there are a lot of isos
brittle nova
yes
keen drift
iso8601, etc
standardization
but yeah your best bet is to map language codes to flags
since the same language can be spoken in multiple countries
heady anvil
english = england right so why is it an american flag
coral trellis
@heady anvil Put that in #memes-and-media and not here

Hey guys new to discord bot development, I am just learning the basics of handling events I am currently doing an channelCreate event that is posting in the new channel when created just fine, But I want it to make a post in the default channel as well, how do I get it to message the default channel?
I can post snippet if it is easier
ivory marlin
Oh wow thanks thats really helpful!

Hey
I need some help with the DBL Api for my site
The goal is this
How do I get the numbers there
oops I didn't see #topgg-api
valid frigate
alternatively you could somehow pass your client's guild and user count into the site
so you don't have to make api calls

Anyone knows how to add CUSTOM emojis only for bot? "Bot-Integrated" emojis?
keen drift
emojis only for bot?
primal egret
Yes
keen drift
I mean you can make emojis restricted to roles
primal egret
What I'm looking for is to do as the bot "Aki (Akinator)" has, for example, react with custom emojis that ONLY the bot has
earnest phoenix
does anyone know of a good npm module that like
tries to decode what language a string of text is in
it doesnt need to translate the text, just see what language it might be in
keen drift
@primal egret yeah no, no idea, that would require immense checking
primal egret
ok.. thanks
keen drift
@earnest phoenix best guess would be querying the google translation api
with its auto detect
earnest phoenix
oh ok
primal egret
and use the \:emoji: to get the ID?
empty owl
Yeah

Anyone kno what the exit code -1 means? :/

On java (windows), an exit code of -1 means closed unexpectedly
happens when your bot crashes

if (slots[result1] && slots[result2] === slots[result3]) {
why does that do something when slots 2 and 3 are the same, even do i want it to be if slots 1,2 and 3 are same then blah blah
inner jewel
because that's what you wrote
if((slots[result1]) && (slots[result2] == slots[result3]))
that's what you have
earnest phoenix
thats what i should have u mean?
earnest phoenix
then what should i have
inner jewel
you want slots[result1] to be equal to slots[result2] and equal to slots[result3]
think about it a bit
earnest phoenix
yes
inner jewel
how many times does equal appear in that sentence
earnest phoenix
ye, if this equals this and this
inner jewel
wrong
earnest phoenix
if this equals this equals this?
inner jewel
if a equals b and c is wrong
earnest phoenix
a = b= c ?
inner jewel
you want if a equals b and a equals c
earnest phoenix
ok
inner jewel
since equality (on any sane language) is transitive, that code would also mean b == c
earnest phoenix
so if((slots[result1] == slots[result2] && slots[result1] == slots[result3]))
inner jewel
no
earnest phoenix
..
earnest phoenix
if((slots[result1]) == (slots[result2] && slots[result2] == slots[result3]))
inner jewel
no
thin loom
if(slots[result1] == slots[result2] && slots[result2] == slots[result3])
inner jewel
no
earnest phoenix
it is
inner jewel
what you sent is a == (b && b == c)
earnest phoenix
HOW?!
thin loom
dude
earnest phoenix
so if((slots[result1] == slots[result2] && slots[result1] == slots[result3]))

Do i understand args correctly here?
is it not the rest of the message after '!setgame'
Or is it an array of strings that I need to combine

args in commando
I think
hold on
args: [

type: 'the type here (string, number, etc)'

Ohhh I see. I’ll try this once I’m back on pc hopefully i didn’t fumble the code up anywhere else, I was able to get this to work pretty easy when doing a .on(‘message’.... but I want to make things a little neater I appreciate the help

would this work so it only does one of these
