earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 2:21 AM

#

@empty owl Promise.then does not take a method!!

#

It takes a callback function

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 2:22 AM

#

yep

#

u can bind a method iirc

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

ThonkingButCool

#

I think you're talking about something else

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

i think u can do like <Promise>.then(callback.call(this))

#

i’m not really sure as I never use any sort of binding for functions

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 2:24 AM

#

Uhm

#

do you know what that does?

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 2:25 AM

#

I know what call/bind does

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 2:27 AM

#

Then you should know that thats pointless

#

LUL

#

You don't need to provide a this argument if you use an arrow function

bright spear Dec 10, 2018, 2:31 AM

never ask the same thing in 2 channels smh

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 2:31 AM

Damn it

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 2:56 AM

#

commands do not work here, the only places that commands will work is in the testing channel @empty compass

bright spear Dec 10, 2018, 2:58 AM

#

Well if you run a help cmd in any channel you'll get a bunch of dms

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 2:58 AM

oh rip

not me

#

lol

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:07 AM

#

how could i tell if there is no message.content

#

like i tried if(message.content == "")

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

so like

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

or !message.content

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

but it wont work

#

no i

#

well

#

idk

#

idk if theres something there

#

but like if you sent an attachment

#

theres no message.content

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

uh

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:08 AM

#

message.content == 0

#

if a message has an attachment itll be 1

#

iirc

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:09 AM

#

what about embed though

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:09 AM

#

uh

#

i think it still works for embeds

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:09 AM

#

no thats not it

#

+eval message.channel.fetchMessage('521522475222433821')
.then(res => {
if(message.content == 0) console.log('hi')
})

#

i did that

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:09 AM

#

message.content == 0

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:09 AM

#

and it didn't

#

📎 unknown.png

#

yes

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:10 AM

#

Context.Message.Attachments.Count() == 1

#

would that work

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:10 AM

#

i can tell if it has an attachment

#

but i cant tell if it has no message.content

#

cuz u can send or not send a message with the attachment

#

yk what

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

wait so "" didnt work?

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

yes

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

ok 1 sec

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

im stupid

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

it would not work

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

i did message.content == 0

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:11 AM

#

lmao

slim heart Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

when i need to do res.content == 0

#

@last ferry you were right thank you

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

y tho

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

lol

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

what do you need to check

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

you could also try msg.Length == 0

#

cause htat might work too

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

if the content is 0

#

which will always be false because content is a string

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:13 AM

#

.length

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:13 AM

#

and plus fetching messages returns a collection

#

oh fetchMessage nvm

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

message.content.length == 0

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

now that works

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

yeah im used to C# lol

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

wait, no

#

messages can’t be empty

#

so that’s useless

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

they can

#

kinda

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

with just an image or embed they can

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

^

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

yeah, with u200b

#

and those confusions

#

conditions

last ferry Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

if you leave the "comment" blank

#

the message is empty

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

yep

#

it’s like sending no payload_json

bright spear Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

or you can just edit a message into nothing

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

true

bright spear Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

oh wait they patched that

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

that's a bug tho

blazing star Dec 10, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

yep

tribal thunder Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 PM

#

Is there a way as a bot owner to unsubscribe from channels?

quartz kindle Dec 10, 2018, 3:21 PM

#

you mean for the bot to ignore certain channels?

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 3:44 PM

#

ok ik that's a known bug, but every time i refresh the discord applications page, my bot gets another token, w0tf should i do, cuz i can't connect my bot

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 3:45 PM

#

thats not a bug (afaik)

#

also wdym you cant connect to ur bot

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 3:46 PM

#

bcs i refresh the page, bot gets another token, and i can't use it in my code

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 3:47 PM

#

The old token still works

#

It only disables those tokens if you used the refresh token button

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 3:47 PM

#

i can't get the old token fok me

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 3:47 PM

#

regenerate*

#

You don't need the old token

#

Any token shown on there will work

#

Untill u hit regenerate

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

nope it doesn't

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

Then you're doing something wrong

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

hm

#

ye nvm

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

👀

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 3:49 PM

wot

#

did you even put it in env

#

ok wtf is this

#

it worked before and now it doesn't

#

when i set command that can be used by my id only it works for others 2 lol

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 5:55 PM

#

Code 👀

tribal thunder Dec 10, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

The way I understand it to work is that any channel can invite my bot to their channel right? Can I as the owner of the bot force it to leave those channels?

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

You mean guilds/servers

#

Yes you can

#

Depending on what library you use

tribal thunder Dec 10, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

I'm using Discord.js

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

okay

#

Pretty sure .leave()

#

on the guild object

#

would work

tribal thunder Dec 10, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

hmm ok, I'll check the API

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

client.guilds.get(id) to get the guild

tribal thunder Dec 10, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

The bot console isn't aware of what servers it's connected to right?

#

I can only determine that through code?

uneven rover Dec 10, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

make an eval command

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

Unless you did something special

#

No

uneven rover Dec 10, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

List all servers with corresponding name and ID

client.guilds.map(g => 'Guild: ' + g.name + ' ID: ' +g.id).join('\n')```
Assuming that you have an eval command
```javascript
client.guilds.get('ID').leave();

quartz kindle Dec 10, 2018, 7:05 PM

#

it is if you run it in a browser environment

#

for example, if you run your bot in nwjs or electron, you can access it through the developer tools console and interact with discord in real time

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 7:26 PM

But who does that 👀

For test my canvas i set thi in command but this command work

            message.channel.send(attachment);

#

But in guildmemberadd my code doesn't work @west raptor

#

I don't know why

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

Because the function is not async

lofty hamlet Dec 10, 2018, 8:34 PM

So ?

#

How should I do it?

brittle nova Dec 10, 2018, 8:34 PM

so you can't use await

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 8:35 PM

Make it async

If you want your bot to work properly on mobile, don't use emojis in titles

Same goes for field names afaik

You're using the id in the fricking ..

#

If you want to hardcode your blacklist you can do it by putting the ids in an array like that^^

knotty steeple Dec 10, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

why are you encouraging

#

use of json

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

and then use if (blackListInfo.includes(msg.author.id))

knotty steeple Dec 10, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

its gonna corrupt soon

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

Because they aren't going to try using a db

knotty steeple Dec 10, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

so?

#

their fault

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

I'm giving them something to work with

#

And a hardcoded blacklist legit doesn't matter

#

If you're not an ape you're not going to blacklists thousands of users

knotty steeple Dec 10, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

json is persistent data

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

It won't just magically break

#

It'll work for his use case

knotty steeple Dec 10, 2018, 9:29 PM

ruby dust Dec 10, 2018, 9:29 PM

in discord.py, does the AutoShardedClient object share the same user/guild cache?

TypeError: blackListInfo.includes is not a function

@late hill

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:33 PM

How did you define blackListInfo

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:34 PM

#

const blackListInfo = require("./JSON/blacklistinfo.json")

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 9:40 PM

you should do

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:40 PM

#

bloblul

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

{
    "users":["user1", "user2", "user3"]
}```

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

But it should work

#

With just an array

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

I don't know how to use JSON

west raptor Dec 10, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

json is so easy

#

pls

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:42 PM

#

not to me

#

oof

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:43 PM

#

[
  "100",
  "200"
]```

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:43 PM

#

idk how

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:43 PM

#

const test = require('./test');

console.log(test.includes("100")); //true
console.log(test.includes("00")); //false
console.log(test.includes("200")); //true
console.log(test.includes("10000")); //false```

#

Works fine for me.

#

test being the json above

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:44 PM

#

the problem is commands dont error when the user is blacklisted

#

it errors when they're not

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:44 PM

#

what

#

lol

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:44 PM

#

idk

#

        let args =  msg.content.split(" ").slice(2).join(' ')
        if(!args[0]) return msg.channel.send("Invalid ID.")
        let embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
        embed.setTitle("Please wait...").setDescription("Please wait while I check a few things.").setColor("RED")
        let m = await msg.channel.send(embed)
        fs.writeFileSync(`./JSON/blacklistinfo.json`, JSON.stringify(args, true, 4))
        embed.setTitle("Done!").setDescription("Sucessfully blacklisted.").setColor("RED")
        m.edit(embed)
    },``` 
I need this to save the user ids like this:
```'ids' {
'234'
'32423'
'324'
}``` but idk how

#

currently it just over writes ids

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:50 PM

#

Yeh

#

If you're using commands to edit it

#

You shouldn't be using a json file

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:51 PM

#

idk how

#

idk anything about data bases

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:52 PM

#

Well

#

You could learn about them

#

Or keep the blacklist hardcoded

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:52 PM

#

Maybe but I dont think I would ever use them for anything useful

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:52 PM

#

Or if you rly want to use json

#

Because writefile will overwrite

#

You can get the entire json

#

Add the new user

#

and then write that

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:53 PM

#

the problem is I need ALOT of ids possible and I need to be able to add and delete them

#

that's why I want to use commands

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:53 PM

#

Then you should rly consider a database

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:53 PM

#

yeah

#

ik

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

mlab & mongoose is what I would recommend

#

If you look it up I'm sure you'll find something

sick cloud Dec 10, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

whats a dict

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

I need them to save as a file

sick cloud Dec 10, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

📎 unknown.png

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

because they will be long term blacklists

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

Your database can store them forever

#

👀

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

can mlab

#

store forever?

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

I've never had any downtime on mlab

#

Using their free plans

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

no

#

I need physical code

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

You can always create backups if you want to be sure

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 9:56 PM

#

I can add

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 9:56 PM

#

You can add/remove to it

#

..

#

It's a database

#

You read/write to it

#

You could also host the database on your own system if that makes you feel more secure..

#

@sick cloud a dictionary is an object

#

with key: value pairs

#

👀

sick cloud Dec 10, 2018, 10:00 PM

#

so a python object or smtn?

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:00 PM

#

Yeh

#

It's called a dictionary in some languages

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 10:01 PM

#

can bot read messages from specific channel without prefix

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 10:01 PM

#

prefixes are unrelated to receiving messages

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:01 PM

#

If you code that

#

😂

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 10:01 PM

#

discord sends message events for all channels the bot has permission to read

#

whatever you do with those events is your code

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 10:01 PM

#

how could i get just message

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 10:02 PM

#

read the docs for your library

#

on how to add an event listener for received messages

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 10:02 PM

#

i searched, its js

#

client.on("message", async message => {

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:03 PM

#

Your language is js

#

Not your library

#

👀

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 10:03 PM

#

discordjs

#

lets say i want to read message

#

from some channel

#

and display it on site

#

for now i just need to get message content

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

message.content

#

?

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

i guess

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:05 PM

#

You can check the channel with message.channel.id

earnest phoenix Dec 10, 2018, 10:05 PM

#

ikr that, all i need is to get message content

#

but i always fail to find it

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:05 PM

It's just message.content ? 😂

hmmm

Explain more please

manic badger Dec 10, 2018, 10:21 PM

#

nvm

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 10:22 PM

#

If your asking how to make a command that ONLY voter can use, then you would search if the member has the role either by the I'd or name

#

If they don't then return a message saying that they don't have the right role.

manic badger Dec 10, 2018, 10:23 PM

If you copied the code to get args and stuff from somewhere without actually understanding how any of it works

#

You probably won't be able to do many changes to it thonkku

@earnest phoenix just do message.content

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 10:39 PM

No need for .join

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 10:40 PM

That code would send a message everytime it receives a message 👀

Also you already got test channel you don't need to find it again @earnest phoenix

#

@earnest phoenix if you have a VPS already then npm i forever

Should I run it on a PI?

@earnest phoenix VPS is better

I wouldn't if I can get it for free

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 10:44 PM

I suggest for beginners to use node or nodemon

@late hill link me one so I can compare

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 10:47 PM

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 10:47 PM

#

I can legit host my bot on a free platform

also just ping means nothing

I'll use VNC

okay

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 10:55 PM

#

Message.content is a method you use to check if the message contents it, so it's very unnecessary to name it

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 10:56 PM

it's a property

not a method

you can use cleanContent to get the content

but what is cmd

sick cloud Dec 10, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

lol

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

It's a messageArray[0]

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

that's basically the same as startsWith

sick cloud Dec 10, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

cmd is a formated message content

#

anyways

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 11:03 PM

#

~~and just as bad~~

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:03 PM

#

and messageArray is most likely message.content.split(' ')

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:06 PM

#

Good readable code barely needs comments

#

You split up your code into functions

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:06 PM

#

That's bad programming habits, lol

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:06 PM

#

And use proper naming for those functions and the variables you use

#

No

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

good code should also have docs

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

Yes

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

all good code has docs

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

It's the opposite of bad habbits

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

I agree with the docs, but comments are only used to define something that the programmer knows that someone else won't understand it

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

Yes

#

It's your job to make them understand

#

Which you can in most cases do without comments

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:08 PM

#

I only use comments to do that, and make it easier for me to find stuff

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 11:08 PM

#

comments are useful to explain why something is what it is

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:09 PM

Why put a comment if you can replace it with a function

manic badger Dec 10, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

lol

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:10 PM

#

Why not, why put a function if you don't need a function?

inner jewel Dec 10, 2018, 11:10 PM

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:10 PM

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:11 PM

You don't need comments on every block of code

I only do it for big section, duh, I am not that dumb. If it's music section I put a comment saying music and that's it

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:12 PM

#

Just a comment that says music?

#

That seems pretty useless to me.

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:14 PM

#

Of course it's going to have more than just music, I was just making it clear that I only make comments for a section or genre of things, if it's music I make a comment about the music function, settings have a settings comment talking about it's in here, etc. I don't do it by each command, that's stupid and unnecessary to do

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:14 PM

#

xd

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:16 PM

#

A good code would have little comments, yes, but sometimes the programmer doesn't have good beginning comment, that they have to make more than one, but really you only need at least 10 comments for a code that is about 1,500 lines, lol

late hill Dec 10, 2018, 11:16 PM

#

yes

vernal rivet Dec 10, 2018, 11:17 PM

wanton walrus Dec 11, 2018, 7:29 PM

I feel like a total dumbass, but I rarely use exports like this and I cannot for the life of me figure this out -

const db = require('./mariadb.js')
const cps = function getCPS(userid) {
    db.query(`SELECT mystuffgoeshere FROM table WHERE userid = ${userid}`, function (error, table, fields) {
        db.query(`SELECT mystuffgoeshere FROM tableagain WHERE userid = ${userid}`, function (erroragain, tableagain, fieldsagain) {
           //some error stuff here normally
            var baseCPS1 = Math.floor(1.1); //this normally has calculations
            var baseCPS = Math.floor(1.1); //this normally has calculations as well
            return baseCPS;
        })
    })
}
module.exports = cps;

But when I call the function when requiring it like so

let thing = require('../utils/getCPS.js');
thing(<userid goes here>)

It returns undefined

bitter sundial Dec 11, 2018, 7:33 PM

#

it should be a promise

#

the query is an aync operation

wanton walrus Dec 11, 2018, 7:33 PM

#

oh fuck you're right

#

earnest phoenix Dec 11, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

It's a callback

#

well wait

#

#

it shouldnt need to be

#

bitter sundial Dec 11, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

when you return in the callback it doesn't reach the outer function

earnest phoenix Dec 11, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

The easiest solution would be attaching a callback

wanton walrus Dec 11, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

I've fiddled for like a good hour and couldnt get something to work

bitter sundial Dec 11, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

yeah callback is an alternative to promise but pls no 😛

wanton walrus Dec 11, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

I tried wrapping it in a promise as well

earnest phoenix Dec 11, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

Do you know how to create a callback?

#

function (userID, callback) {
 //Async code
callback(baseCPS)
}

#

Something like that

bitter sundial Dec 11, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

const db = require('./mariadb.js')
const cps = function getCPS(userid) {
    return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
        db.query(`SELECT mystuffgoeshere FROM table WHERE userid = ${userid}`, function (error, table, fields) {
            db.query(`SELECT mystuffgoeshere FROM tableagain WHERE userid = ${userid}`, function (erroragain, tableagain, fieldsagain) {
               //some error stuff here normally
                var baseCPS1 = Math.floor(1.1); //this normally has calculations
                var baseCPS = Math.floor(1.1); //this normally has calculations as well
                resolve(baseCPS);
            })
        })
    })
}
module.exports = cps;

earnest phoenix Dec 11, 2018, 7:37 PM

Then, in the other file,

thing("ID, baseCPS => { console.log(baseCPS)})```

#

Well, a bunch of await statements in a try catch looks ugly too

#

My preference in that case would be to chain promises

quartz kindle Dec 11, 2018, 7:41 PM

#

better await 5 times than 5 callbacks inside each other

earnest phoenix Dec 11, 2018, 7:41 PM

well I mean isn't there a way to mention a role and have the bot find the id?

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:02 AM

#

Yes

#

Search for the role name

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:04 AM

#

no need

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

Roles are sorted by IDs. And names

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

just remove <@& and >

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

Yes

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

and you'll get the id

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

But that only works for single server bots

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

wdym

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

Each role has a different id

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:06 AM

#

yes

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:06 AM

#

You can search for the name

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:06 AM

#

whats wrong with that

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:07 AM

#

If the person wants to see the person's role is equal to let's say dj, if you do it be the I'd, then your only doing it for one server and not other servers

earnest phoenix Dec 12, 2018, 1:08 AM

#

var role = message.guild.roles.find("name", "RoleName");

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:08 AM

#

That's decrepit

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:08 AM

#

yeah you cant use find like that anymore

#

message.guild.roles.find(r => r.name==='RoleName')```

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:09 AM

#

Yes

#

You should be telling him this, and not to search for the I'd, cause he is a bot developor, and his bot is approved, so it was made for anyone

bright spear Dec 12, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

what does he even want to do

earnest phoenix Dec 12, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

just how can i change color name

#

cant find it in docs

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

It's best to do hex color

earnest phoenix Dec 12, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

this but cant understand it

#

like

#

role.color("hex")

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:12 AM

#

No hex color is a system

earnest phoenix Dec 12, 2018, 1:12 AM

#

its "hex" is just an example

#

of #FFFF

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:13 AM

#

#ffffff is equal to white

earnest phoenix Dec 12, 2018, 1:13 AM

#

.

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:13 AM

#

Yes

#

I will have to find the right code of it

earnest phoenix Dec 12, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

how about

#

role.setColor

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

Discord.js

Discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

#

Here, and your right

stiff spire Dec 12, 2018, 1:17 AM

#

Bots are not allowed to:
• Break the Discord Terms of Service
• Have NSFW names/avatars/command responses (in non-NSFW channels)
• Advertise anything NSFW in the short or long description
• Be a clone or fork of another bot
• Contain malicious scripts/code
• Hide the report/delete/vote buttons
• Vote in behalf of the user
• Autoplay video or audio
• Use CSS/JS or anything to hide DBL placed ads/banners

Bots in the queue will be declined if they:
• Do not comply with the bot rules
• Are offline
• Fail to provide an easily accessible list of commands
• Have no actual features
• Allow NSFW content (including but not limited to the Urban Dictionary, links that source to pornographic material) outside of NSFW channels.

Bots will be kicked from the server if they:
• Send join messages/mass messages/advertisements in direct messages

Bots will receive a mute if they:
• Spam testing channels
• Send level up messages (these should be disabled for this server)
• Reply to other bots
• Go rogue
• Respond to non-prefixed commands
• Send automatic messages without being triggered by a prefixed command

Any existing bot that breaks the rules will be deleted.

Please do not flood this channel with unnecessary things

sick cloud Dec 12, 2018, 1:17 AM

{ server_count: guildCount, shard_count: client.shard.count } so is something like this okay

stiff spire Dec 12, 2018, 1:17 AM

#

Sorry

#

I like sushi

vernal rivet Dec 12, 2018, 1:18 AM

#

Tbh I haven't worked with sharding before, you might need to look at the discord developer docs for that

i must be dumb but i can't see the issue

#

shouldn't it define /src/ on ./commands & ./events since it's in the same dir?

#

nvm i fixed it

scarlet bane Dec 12, 2018, 6:17 AM

#

Aye so when can a message's author be null?

#

Cus i got weird stuff happening with messages having null as author

sick cloud Dec 12, 2018, 6:23 AM

#

when a webhook sends it

scarlet bane Dec 12, 2018, 6:38 AM

#

Nope, i was dumb and parsing message_update as if it was message_create

#

message_update is allowed to skip parameters that havent changed

#

: )

thanks anyways tho

You have to get your own webserver

That can handle the requests

it should receive requests on port 5000 in your ip address

Yes

quartz kindle Dec 12, 2018, 3:01 PM

you just need to configure your firewall, depending on where you're hosted

Then put your ip as url

#

With port
