You got any practical solutions to uh, horizontal caching

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

wtf is horizontal caching

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

caching across machines

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

uh

#

hazelcast

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

that would make it practical for me to retrieve in case I want to build an API

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

retrieve what?

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

Any cached data

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

why horizontal tho

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

hm? Am I suppose to put it on a single machine

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

why not

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

what if I want to do multiple machines for cost effectiveness

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

i dont care about cost effectiveness

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:04 PM

PepeHands

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

sharing cache is just effort

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

you rich people

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

you could just fetch from each instance the needed data

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

Then that'd be back to the rabbitmq/nats route

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

unless youre telling me youre moving around thousand of dollars per month in servercosts, optimizing server costs is not worth the time thinking baout it

violet dagger Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

i be flossinn

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

nothing wrong with rmq/nats

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

I only have like $100 to work with

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

100 usd is a lot of money

#

for a bot

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

^

#

buy a single fat server

violet dagger Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

can you like, give me that lol

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

you can easily handle 100-150k guilds with that

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

I can get more juice if I buy another machine

violet dagger Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

Yeah, buy your own server

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

im handling 130k guilds with like 20 bucks per month

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

one of the bots i develop runs 300k guilds with 160/month

violet dagger Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

“one of the”

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

and we use just a bit above half the resources

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

using JDA

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

yes i develop multiple bots

#

Oh aki is og

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

So, say I resolve to the hazelcast method, what's an ideal way to invalidate cache, if the ws goes unavailable, and a channel is removed

#

Do I just purge all the cache associated with that shard when ws comes back online

violet dagger Jan 10, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

I think that was like one of the first bots i ever used properly

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

the ideal is to not go distributed unless you absolutely have to

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

i just purge all cache for the shard when session is oofed

#

if it's resumable no need to purge

#

also ^ what napster said

#

it's way easier to keep just your lib's cache and when needed fetch info from it and send where it's needed

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:09 PM

#

Where does Fredboat store its cache

bright spear Jan 10, 2019, 9:10 PM

#

Is a fredboat dev here?

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:10 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

on mantaro we use only JDA's cache

earnest phoenix Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

tf is mantaro

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

and that's enough for a lot of growth

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

distributed is

more expensive
requires skill and knowledge and time to set up
makes simple code complicated
is less supported by libraries
has less users and therefore less docs and questions asked/answers answered about
costs you a constant amout of time to maintain and evolve that could be invested in features

for the benefits of

scaling a shitbot that will most likely never need it

earnest phoenix Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

sounds like a linux os

bright spear Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

A music bot

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

with 100 usd you can literally throw 100 shards in a single process and get away with it

knotty steeple Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

a multipurpose bot*

earnest phoenix Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

requires skill and knowledge and time to set up
makes simple code complicated
...
has less users and therefore less docs and questions asked/answers answered about
costs you a constant amout of time to maintain and evolve that could be invested in features

being committed and having motivation can solve those

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

Well, I have most of my structure planned out, except for the cache layer

#

And I like the idea to keep ws layer separate, so I can apply restarts w/o restarting the ws

earnest phoenix Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

Depends if the programmer really cares what he or she is doing

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

being committed and having motivation can solve those

youre still a single person and the day has only 24 hours

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

everyone i know who did a distributed cache just gave up

#

it's not worth the effort

#

and now besides the bot you have to maintain all the extra stuff

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

Better if I deal with it now then when I need to in college

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

i think fredboat was running on like a single server with a millions guilds or more

#

lavalink nodes but those dont count

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

wonder how dyno does it Thonkang

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

runs on 3 dedis afaik

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

keeping the cache in a single process is already a pain, share it between multiple and you got a never ending headache

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

why

#

the cache even if kept in a single process is unreliable

#

making it distributed is therefore not exactly a huge issue from that point of view

#

it is unreliable because any decision you do based on it's content can be wrong because discord might not have sent you an event or is just about to send it

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

AwkwardKid

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

so making a cache distributed and a little more eventually consistent than it already is shouldnt have a huge impact on your code which should be assuming that the cache is somewhat unreliable in the first place

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:21 PM

#

gonna ask around more I guess

drowsy lily Jan 10, 2019, 9:23 PM

#

why bother ppl with it instead of building a prototype and seeing for yourself whether you like that way of building a discord bot or not

earnest phoenix Jan 10, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

Because people are lazy

#

and ignorant

keen drift Jan 10, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

Well I'm in the middle of building a prototype

#

But I'm not sure how I would approach that specific part

#

Natan showed a sc of you mentioning it, so I thought you had some experience, figure I might ask

#

I'll ask around other devs

silver lintel Jan 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

on github, how do you keep the token private?

inner jewel Jan 10, 2019, 10:30 PM

#

by not adding it to github

how would i add who invited the user to the welcome message?

frozen tiger Jan 11, 2019, 4:56 PM

#

you could try to get the invite used and then get the invite creator

earnest phoenix Jan 11, 2019, 5:09 PM

#

there is no reliable way of getting who invited who

im currently building an asp.net core website which is basically an invite tracker. it has its own invites, basically it creates a new invite, makes the user login with oauth2 with the guilds.join scope, if they accept the invite, add them to the guild. that way you can track who invited who, uses, etc., it might be an overkill but as of right now having your own middleware for it is the only reliable way

dapper bear Jan 11, 2019, 5:10 PM

#

i just want a basic invite tracker 😅

amber fractal Jan 11, 2019, 6:12 PM

#

To track who creates invites?

dapper bear Jan 11, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

no to say who invited a user when they join

bright spear Jan 11, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

@dapper bear you can't see that directly, you'll need to track the count of each invite and see which one increased when they join

#

So you'll need to store it in a db

amber fractal Jan 11, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

I think he wants to have the user input it manually

Oof

vernal rivet Jan 11, 2019, 10:49 PM

#

If u don't see a package for the thing you want, then you will have to make it, if you cant do that, then your better off making it do something else

limber swan Jan 11, 2019, 10:55 PM

noblox.js?

vernal rivet Jan 11, 2019, 10:56 PM

#

For anything

obtuse wind Jan 11, 2019, 11:33 PM

#

What do I do if my bot's console keeps saying "msg.edit is not a function"

mossy vine Jan 11, 2019, 11:34 PM

#

What is msg defined as?

obtuse wind Jan 11, 2019, 11:35 PM

#

message

mossy vine Jan 11, 2019, 11:35 PM

#

I mean

#

Where and how

obtuse wind Jan 11, 2019, 11:35 PM

#

bot.user.lastMessageID

#

and on my bot console (it lets me type in it and run commands via console as needed / wanted)

#

📎 unknown.png

#

but if I do "msg.edit(test edit/some message) .then(msg => console.log(Successfully Edited Message, ${msg}) .catch(console.error);" it wont let me successfully run

stray wasp Jan 11, 2019, 11:57 PM

#

anyone know if webhooks can use emotes?

bright spear Jan 12, 2019, 12:07 AM

#

@stray wasp they can use all emotes in the server include animated emotes, but they cant use emotes from other servers

stray wasp Jan 12, 2019, 12:10 AM

#

alright thanks

crude portal Jan 12, 2019, 1:41 AM

#

Guys what is a shard

bright spear Jan 12, 2019, 1:43 AM

#

@crude portal big bots are split into multiple shards, each shard has its own connection to the Discord API. depending on your lib and the sharding type it may make one process per shard

crude portal Jan 12, 2019, 1:43 AM

#

Ohh ok cheers

bright spear Jan 12, 2019, 1:43 AM

#

each shard can only be on 2500 servers so u need to set it up before you reach that

#

yw

crude portal Jan 12, 2019, 1:43 AM

#

I don't need to worry about that just yet

#

Thanks though

bright spear Jan 12, 2019, 1:43 AM

#

yw

crude portal Jan 12, 2019, 1:56 AM

#

So if I use discord.js I don't need to require the api and I don't need .postStats right

dull idol Jan 12, 2019, 2:09 AM

#

@crude portal Sharding is the method by which a bot's code is "split" into multiple instances of itself. When a bot is sharded, each shard handles only a certain percentage of all the guilds the bot is on.

#

Don't use this method too early.

#

You can use this when your bot has 2k / 2,5k servers.

amber fractal Jan 12, 2019, 2:10 AM

#

I do it with 67, but only one instance is spawned mmLol

#

Ooh wait Im at 70 now

dull idol Jan 12, 2019, 2:10 AM

#

Using shards can decreases your bot performance.

amber fractal Jan 12, 2019, 2:11 AM

#

I havent had any issues

crude portal Jan 12, 2019, 2:11 AM

#

Thank you!

dull idol Jan 12, 2019, 2:11 AM

#

Especially, music.

#

Sharded bots often gain very marginal performance increase and might even use more memory due to using more node processes.

crude portal Jan 12, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

Yeah I certainly don't need to worry about any time soon

dull idol Jan 12, 2019, 2:15 AM

#

Glad you know it <3

inner jewel Jan 12, 2019, 2:17 AM

#

if you have an unified cache sharding has pretty much no overhead

#

besides synchronization for the cache

try{
  message.guild.members.array().forEach(member => {
    member.send('string')})
  }catch(err){
    console.log(err)
  }

Anyone have any clue as to why evaling this could have possibly escaped just the message server, and dm'd in every server that the bot is in?

bright spear Jan 12, 2019, 3:07 AM

#

wdym dmed in every server

#

dms arent related to servers

dusky marsh Jan 12, 2019, 3:08 AM

#

bro what, no, i did an eval command, it was supposed to dm people in the server i did the eval in, instead it dm'd in every server she is in

earnest phoenix Jan 12, 2019, 3:23 AM

#

Yeah, it should have only DM'd the one sever yet it DM'd all the bots users.

bright spear Jan 12, 2019, 3:23 AM

hm that shouldnt have happened

#

and i didnt get a dm

dusky marsh Jan 12, 2019, 3:23 AM

res.redirect?

instead

it’s is why you call return

just do return res.send("something")

@blazing star the issue is he/she put res.sendFile on the bottom

depends your vps

if your bot gets big though, you'll need a database server that accepts multiple connections

if my bot gets big, i will shard them

@earnest phoenix as your bot not abusing the API.

quartz kindle Jan 12, 2019, 11:14 AM

@lethal sun copy the contents of your json file and paste them in an online json linter

Any way to get it unlocked though @dull idol

@earnest phoenix Is your bot abusing the API?

earnest phoenix Jan 12, 2019, 11:15 AM

#

Really doubt it but it's worth a shot

dull idol Jan 12, 2019, 11:15 AM

#

Ok, here.

#

Try to make another bot. Create it one.

#

And, grab the token on your new bot.

#

Then, you paste in your config.json or process.env (idk)

#

Try it.

#

If the new bot is online, maybe your one bot is locked.

#

@earnest phoenix

How to go back a directory in node.js?

I know it's a dumb question

#

klappa

coral trellis Jan 12, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

const yes = require("./../")

#

./ = Finds the directory you are in and then ../ goes back one

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 12:43 PM

#

so if I want to access a file that isn't in a folder that I am currently in, I do "../prefixes.json"?

coral trellis Jan 12, 2019, 12:44 PM

#

const yes = require("./../prefix.json")

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 12:45 PM

#

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open './../prefixes.json'

#

thinking1

#

@coral trellis

coral trellis Jan 12, 2019, 12:48 PM

#

Send me a screenshot of your files

#

So I can get a layout of where the prefixes.json file is

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 12:51 PM

#

main
|-> index.js
|-> prefixes.json
|-> commands -> command.js```

#

main is the folder where index.js and prefixes.json files are

#

and the commands folder is in the main folder and contains the commands for the bot

#

so I need to go from the command file back to the main folder and define the prefixes.json file

coral trellis Jan 12, 2019, 12:53 PM

#

'./../../prefixes.json'

#

Do that

fierce thorn Jan 12, 2019, 12:55 PM

#

'../prefixes.json'

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 12:55 PM

#

nope @coral trellis and nope @fierce thorn

coral trellis Jan 12, 2019, 12:56 PM

#

So you are in /commands/command correct?

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 12:57 PM

#

my command is called prefix so the command file is called prefix.js

#

command/prefix.js

coral trellis Jan 12, 2019, 12:57 PM

./../../prefix.json

#

That should work

You can just require json files

let prx = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('./../../prefix.json', "utf-8")) @late hill

that's what I want to do ^

but I want to parse it with fs

inner jewel Jan 12, 2019, 2:10 PM

won't that cause the require cache to mess it?

late hill Jan 12, 2019, 2:13 PM

#

Oh if you write to it

#

Use a database like a sane person

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 2:13 PM

#

I want to parse it, change the content of the json file and then write it

inner jewel Jan 12, 2019, 2:13 PM

#

although using json as data storage is a bad idea

late hill Jan 12, 2019, 2:14 PM

#

I only use json for configs so just requiring it works fine

#

Configs that can't be edited*

#

Unless changing the actual file

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 2:15 PM

#

so, if I don't want to use json, what database should I use then?

#

except sqlite

late hill Jan 12, 2019, 2:16 PM

Mongo !!!

lethal sun Jan 12, 2019, 2:16 PM

no

not mongo pls

quick.db is just an sqlite wrapper

topaz fjord Jan 12, 2019, 2:20 PM

It's just for people who are legit too lazy to learn sqlite

And sqlite is easy

@lethal sun why not mongo

mongo is good

late hill Jan 12, 2019, 2:21 PM

If you only have 2 fields and set them both to inline they should be next to eachother

wait so since he got the dm with the known shady link from his bot ~20 minutes before he posted this repo, does that mean that the guy doing this is in this channel? or was it possibly a github token scraper?

probably a scraper

tokenboi likes scraping

my bot is not on this server

and what is a scrapper?

that scrapper is someone looking for bot tokens on github and abusing those tokens

because you didn't do the prefix check properly

how can i do that

learn js

earnest phoenix Jan 12, 2019, 5:28 PM

#

i know js

inner jewel Jan 12, 2019, 5:29 PM

#

maybe check if the content (hint hint) starts with the prefix

#

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/startsWith

MDN Web Docs

String.prototype.startsWith()

The startsWith() method determines whether a string begins with the characters of a specified string, returning true or false as appropriate.

earnest phoenix Jan 12, 2019, 5:29 PM

but that i dont know

you should learn the language properly

Hey, so my RRS feed isn't working. Heres my code:

function rssFetch(channel, url, displayName) {
  (async () => {

    let feed = await parser.parseURL(url);
    console.log("Fetching from " + feed.title);

    let updatefile = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync("./updates.json", "utf8"))

    feed.items.forEach(item => {
      let update = new Discord.RichEmbed()
      .setColor("#2d87d3")
      .setAuthor(item.title + " | " + displayName)
      .setDescription(item.content)
      .setTimestamp()
      .setFooter("Posted by " + item.dc)


      if(!updatefile[item.link]){
        updatefile[item.link] = {
          read: "true"
        };

        channel.send(update)

        fs.writeFile("./updates.json", JSON.stringify(updatefile), (err) => {
          if(err) {
            console.log(err);
          }
        })
      } else {
        return;
      }
    });

  })();
}``` I get no errors in console

#

and heres the rrs request function code thing

#

bot.on("ready", async () => {
  console.log(`${bot.user.username} is now online!`)
  bot.user.setActivity(`to the forums!`, {type: `LISTENING`});
  rssFetch(bot.channels.get('533506639756656650'), "http://minefracture.com/forums/global-updates/index.rss", "Global")
  rssFetch(bot.channels.get('533506639756656650'), "http://minefracture.com/forums/discord-updates/index.rss", "Discord")
  rssFetch(bot.channels.get('533506639756656650'), "http://minefracture.com/forums/hub-updates/index.rss", "Hub")
  rssFetch(bot.channels.get('533506639756656650'), "http://minefracture.com/forums/forum-updates/index.rss", "Forums")
});```

#

I've tried removing the async as well as simplifying the code

vernal rivet Jan 12, 2019, 8:29 PM

#

its works when its online, but if you take it offline it doesn't connect to discord, because the api response time is too high for the bot to connect, it has to be around 100 -200ms for a bot to connect with no problems, right now its around 216 which is still high, but at 12:10 it was 700ms

If it's leaving right after, no. If its leaving mid stream then thats one of the many possibilities. If there's an error, there's something you need to fix.

@earnest phoenix yes, as it joins the v

#

vc

earnest phoenix Jan 13, 2019, 5:58 AM

If you're using ytdl to stream a youtube video it's probably due to a restriction from youtube itself.

dull idol Jan 13, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

yeah. in my opinion is like that too.

earnest phoenix Jan 13, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

Thus, it just can't stream it. That or ytdl needs an update.

dull idol Jan 13, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

my ytdl-core is latest.

earnest phoenix Jan 13, 2019, 5:59 AM

#

No I mean the package itself. YouTube updates its stuff all the time, so it breaks every now and then. If its not streaming other videos then thats why. But my musicbot seems to be fine, so its just a restriction.

from the d.py docs

#

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$thumb'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Send me that 👍 reaction, mate')

        def check(reaction, user):
            return user == message.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '👍'

        try:
            reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            await channel.send('👎')
        else:
            await channel.send('👍')```

#
