for instance, you can "clean up" some members in a specific threshold but keep in mind that this would break some functionality like message.mentions.members
you can also try to clean up the user cache but you need to make your own recacher or else you would run into serious issues.
nuke message cache or reduce it to 100 may help a little
clear presence cache "if you dont use it" or else you may not want to nuke it
other than that put more ram
I also forgot to mention you can also make the garbage collector more agressive in node but that would make your program horribly slow if set too low since mark-sweep gc would stop the program for a bit of time
lilac geyser
I see... thanks so much :p
messageCacheLifetime: 10,
messageCacheMaxSize: 3,
messageSweepInterval: 30,``` im already doing this for messages๐
sinful lotus
your choice thats fine although as I said, d.js love to cache
lilac geyser
As well as this js disabledEvents: [ 'TYPING_START', 'PRESENCE_UPDATE' ],
:|
there's barely anything else I can do for clean up
sinful lotus
just try to do what I said on earlier, that might help but theres nothing more you can do
since first, d.js uses traditional sharding
means usercaches are different for each shard
means user could be duplicated
as well its process based sharding
lilac geyser
Hmm...
sinful lotus
you can reduce your shard count to at least 2k per guild
but as I said other than what I specified
no matter what you do since it is process based sharding it eats more ram
normally
there is a sharder in d.js master right now which is called Kurasata I think? which is available on d.js master that is based on eris sharder
which lets you have more guilds in single process but you may need to rewrite a lot of stuff and if you arent into a rewrite then
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
lilac geyser
I'll take a look, thanks again
steel heath
rewriting is ok i'll do anything if it's going to help me with my ram usage stuff could u explain mr smart n awesome qt

Changing a library is not so ok
Youve got to study every thing again
Alright great

@sinful lotus pong
@sinful lotus IS is quite stable, atleast my bot runs 10 Clusters with 40 Shards and 80k Guilds fine and it resumes/reconnects fine atm

Well Im just waiting for it to become more stable, I'll look onto refactoring once the issues on github repo of d.js get resolved in is

well the second one is really weird tho, idk how JSON parse errors are related to d.js 
sinful lotus
not sure as well lmao, I'll just disturb you once I migrate 
restive silo
sure, i have some nice plans to Kurasuta aswell
sad that i move away from it but kinda nice at the same time
sinful lotus
Its just different based on what you are used to do in traditional sharding thats why Im sure I'll have a lot of questions there
restive silo
sure, only really difference i saw was waaaay less memory
sinful lotus
how much it eats right now?
restive silo
since i have less processes i assume, but i probaly need to manually increase my Cluster count soon since i dont want to run more then 4 shards in 1 process
my bot with 80k guilds takes like 7.4GB
sinful lotus
thats really efficient than process based sharding ๐

how to add Reaction to message send webhook??
amber fractal
What was that delete
stuck prism
I moved it to api
nvm seemed thatโs defiantly not the correct are, Iโm on mobile so canโt view channel descriptions easily. Iโll add it here once again in this message.
If somebody would be kind enough to help me. Iโve got a little problem regarding the shop Iโm setting on a website.
I can't add or remove points via the Discordhub API
If I do it in their test interface, it works with the precise URL https://discordhub.com/api/points/remove?user_id=86222355826765824&server_id=337395364489330688&amount=1
I'm using the correct URL, but instead it's returning just a message
{"message": "The method is not allowed for the requested URL."}
queen violet
@reef valley You want to use webhooks to add reactions or add reactions to messages sent with webhooks
earnest phoenix
Can anyone here help me with discordpy on_socket_raw_receive ?
slender thistle
What's up
earnest phoenix
I'm trying to basically do the "reaction roles" feature. I had it at first, but it only worked when the message was sent AFTER the bot was turned online.
slender thistle
Rewrite branch?
earnest phoenix
So I was then advised to use the "on_socket_raw_receive" and I'm having trouble understanding it.
No, I'm using async.
slender thistle
neat falcon
async def on_socket_raw_receive(self, raw_msg):
if not isinstance(raw_msg, str):
return
msg = json.loads(raw_msg)
type = msg.get("t")
data = msg.get("d")
if not data:
return
emoji = data.get("emoji")
user_id = data.get("user_id")
message_id = data.get("message_id")
if type == "MESSAGE_REACTION_ADD":
# do something
elif type == "MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVE":
# do something else
And what do you not understand there?
earnest phoenix
I suppose how to use it.
I plugged in that code, and...
TypeError: on_socket_raw_receive() missing 1 required positional argument: 'raw_msg'
slender thistle
Is it in cog or no?
earnest phoenix
No, I haven't started doing cogs yet :p
earnest phoenix
I did
(to be fair, I just started self-teaching python like last week)
and I'm assuming I don't need the json then
earnest phoenix
I removed self, and
NameError: name 'json' is not defined
slender thistle
import it
earnest phoenix
do u know how to create an array with thousands of phrases'
with a google api
now i feel stupid
slender thistle
Self-teaching Python while creating a Discord bot, eh? :^)

slender thistle
@earnest phoenix thousands of phrases with Google API? 
earnest phoenix
yeah
slender thistle
What phrases though? 
earnest phoenix
everyone
amber fractal
earnest phoenix
searching phrases from google
To maintain some credibility, I have a buy/sell feature that connects to a MySQL db to create a user input-defined list advertising what they're selling.
slender thistle
Is that even possible, I wonder
slender thistle
Unfortunately, nope
amber fractal
That's nice
slender thistle
If I can help, sure
earnest phoenix
What's complicated to me is most likely simple to you.
slender thistle
Who knows
earnest phoenix
So for everything else, I've been using message.author and member
since those are in the parameters of the def's
but the only param passed in on_socket_raw_receive is the raw_msg.
I'm trying to add user roles and message the user upon reacting with an emoji, but can't seem to find the correct wording to use to get the user
I obviously can't do the user_id since that's defined as the str...
slender thistle
You have user_id variable there
So, get_member if it even exists in async or utils.get
earnest phoenix
Well yea
I did: await client.add_roles(user_id, discord.utils.get(user_id.server.roles, name="Buyer&Seller"))
slender thistle
Yeah, did a wrong there
earnest phoenix
lmao did 2 wrongs there.
slender thistle
Yep
earnest phoenix
How'd I go about correcting such a mistake?
slender thistle
Make another variable with utils.get where the iterable is bot.servers
Call it member or user or whatever you wanna name it
white rampart
Here I put the bot token or the token application Discord Bot List?
slender thistle

earnest phoenix
haha well thanks for the help

i'll go hire a dev

@earnest phoenix assuming i know how to define bot , what?

slender thistle
If it's not in a cog or class, use whatever you name it in when declaring commands.Bot or discord.Client (whichever you are using)
slender thistle
If you're not gonna help or ask questions about development, please move away from this channel
earnest phoenix
ok yea, that's what i thought @slender thistle
except that's what i did lol and i still managed to screw something up ๐คฃ
earnest phoenix
user = discord.utils.get(client.servers)
marble needle
Gotta know how to use it
earnest phoenix
but yea, i have. for hours actually lol all the commands i've been using come from there
slender thistle
A helper that returns the first element in the iterable that meets all the traits passed in attrs.
Example:
member = discord.utils.get(message.server.members, name='Foo')
Let's imagine that we have a user on some server whose username is Foo and their user ID is 250
How would you use utils.get if you wanted to find a member with id equal to 250?
earnest phoenix
discord.utils.get(message.server.members, name='Foo', id = 250)
slender thistle
That's correct, but in your case you don't need name attribute, correct?
slender thistle
Yep
earnest phoenix
so what do i need to put for the other parameter? server name? ;-;
slender thistle
I just confused myself, give me a minute 
Uh, ig you would have to use https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.get_all_members instead of message.server.members

tawny minnow
so i am encountering that peoples usernames have emoji code in them. and my database doesnt like that and it keeps crashing my bot. is there any way that i can store those usernames in a useable fashion and stop the bot from crashing when it tries to store it
perhaps change the datatype from varchar to something else? but if thats the solution, im not sure which datatype to use that can accept the emoji code
Error: ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD: Incorrect string value: '\xF0\x9D\x95\xAF\xF0\x9D...' for column 'Username' at row 1
quartz kindle
You should sanitize the string or encode it
Althougj if your database is in utf8, it should accept unicode emojis
Also check if you're not accidentally parsing those backslashes as escapes instead of text
tawny minnow
it is indeed utf8 and if i sanitize it, would it still store the username in a useable manner?
quartz kindle
Sanifization often involves removal of bad characters, so it might happen that your username will return broken
tawny minnow
thats what im worried about
quartz kindle
Encoding on the other hand, such as base64, should be safe, but it will probably increase string size
tawny minnow
that would require all usernames to be encoded and decoded as used correct?
quartz kindle
Yup
tawny minnow
thats a bit frustrating just to deal with a few rare people that chose to have emoji...
quartz kindle
You can use html encoding or some other encoding that targets only insafe characters
amber fractal
bcrypt :+1: or ๐
quartz kindle
Bcrypt is fine for passwords
amber fractal
Is there any other ones that I should be aware of tho?
tawny minnow
i might just sanitize it the usernames and see if it breaks them. but there is such a small amount of people with emoji in the usernames, i sort of dont think it will even be an issue on my bot since i dont expect it to become a huge thing
quartz kindle
Scrypt, argon2, pbkdf2
amber fractal
Compared to bcrypt are they better?
quartz kindle
Argon2 is the newest one i believe
As for better, idk, check some articles on them

You can console log the output of the request then use that to do what you want with the data
I use and use snekfetch,js let {body} = await new fetch("GET", `https://fortnite-public-api.theapinetwork.com/prod09/store/get?language=en`);

last lava
Any solutions or thoughts on why it adds 0.1999999999 instead of 2
amber fractal
It does that, just add .5 and cut off the decimal to round
Wait
I read that wrong
languid dragon
just round it
languid dragon
]]ev Math.floor(1.99999999998)
covert turtleBOT
1
No
languid dragon
what are you asking exactly lmao
languid dragon
0.1999999999 doesn't round to 2
it rounds to 0.2
im still not catching on to what you're trying to achieve
languid dragon
i see
the solution in theory to get a double from rounding would be to times the number by 10 to get it to a integer, round that to the nearest whole number and divide it by 10
last lava
Yeah
languid dragon
that's the only solution i'd be able to think of
last lava
I tried that also
viral spade
When implementing custom bot prefixes you need to query the database everytime a user sends a message? is that too much work for a relational database (mysql)?
languid dragon
]]ev Math.round(0.199 * 10) / 10
covert turtleBOT
0.2
Iโll try that
languid dragon
@viral spade cache database entries in your bot and only re-cache when a change is made to the user's guild etc
viral spade
like in a global array?
languid dragon
@last lava what you should do is work in whole numbers instead of decimals
they're easier to work with and you can convert them to decimal later
so if you want to save it as 6.8 in the database, work with 68 and =+ 2 instead of 6.8 =+ 0.2, then once you get a number like 98 you can divide that by 10 to get 9.8 and drop that in the database
in theory that would be the best way to do things since it keeps it simple and you're not adding decimals to decimals
there's a reason it does that im sure, but i wouldn't know
last lava
Okay
languid dragon
@viral spade like a map
Map {
"SERVER_ID_HERE": {
// the server details etc
}
}
Map.get("server") // contains all the data
Map.set("server", {
// the server data from the database
});
oh nice. thx
sorry the ping was mistake
@ lizard is there some in memory way of storing/caching data, but still use sql-like queries (join, order, ..) in an easy and efficient way?
viral spade
i dont want to ping but address him

@viral spade uh, there might be but the best way would just cache it and make helper functions or something idk

languid dragon
scarlet bane
@last lava i looked through your convo and didnt really see an answer to your question idk. Basically, javascript decimal numbers (and most computer numbers actually) aren't perfectly accurate and get as close as possible to the value you want. so in this case adding .2 adds .19999999999 because .1999999999999 is basically .2, and it's most likely as close as the computer can get (because of how computers store decimal numbers in binary). It won't really affect your code in any way though because as you can see, eventually it adds .2.
Tldr: floating point numbers are dumb and thats why .2 == .19999999999
last lava
k thx
scarlet bane
specifically in javascript though, inaccuracies in numbers occur in other places as well (such as really big numbers)
causing the last few digits of really big numbers to be wrong
last lava
its just interesting to me
scarlet bane
yeah its cool to see how this stuff works
i'll see if i can find an article that explains it better than i did
last lava
if u do find one, can u dm that to me
scarlet bane
its at a bit of a higher level, you need to understand a bit of binary and how computers handle things for you to be able to fully grasp it, but its' a good description of the problem nonetheless.
last lava
well ill look into it, thx
scarlet bane

tawny lava
i'm trying to make superagent to send the generated image
but since it doesn't have a name value,only a url, what do i need to put at the .setImage
the response returns a json array
parse the json
i don't have the json
yes but the response returns a json
yeah but what do i put at the body.url
since the json is like [ "image url 1", "image url 2", ... ]
yes, you need to parse the response and then you can extract the data from the json object
proud pivot
is there a bot preset fore Python
earnest phoenix
how could i parse the response? json.parse()?
try it and see
doesn't work
json.parse() and body.parse() doesnt work
show your code
also, in javascript json is usually all capital if you want to access the class
const Discord = require("discord.js");
const superagent = require("superagent");
module.exports.run = async (bot,message,args) => {
let {body} = await superagent

.setTimestamp()
.setImage(body)
message.channel.send(dogembed);
}
module.exports.help = {
name: "shibe"
}
jesus christ
you use JSON.parse which takes a string, it'll then return a json object you can interact with
error
descriptive
what's your code
JSON.parse(body)
const Discord = require("discord.js");
const superagent = require("superagent");
module.exports.run = async (bot,message,args) => {
let {body} = await superagent
.get(`http://shibe.online/api/shibes?count=1&urls=true&httpsUrls=false`);
JSON.parse(body)

.setTitle("Shibe!")
.setTimestamp()
.setImage(body.h)
message.channel.send(dogembed);
}
module.exports.help = {
name: "shibe"
}
what does body look like when you console.log it
if it's an object, then yeah, JSON.parse takes a json string not an object
from what i'm reading on the docs, it returns a response object which then has a body property
it returns the josn
json
the url

Does anyone know I can fix this for my site?

Get a valid cert
amber fractal
It's copy paste from the cloudflare dashboard
slim heart
Wym? Thatโs showing on ur dash?
grim aspen
website certificate is invalid is my best guess
slim heart
Oh wait @earnest phoenix JSON.parse isnโt gonna set the variable you give again, it returns the parsed JSON, you canโt just do .parse(body) and body is now parsed you have to do etc=.parse
amber fractal
Yes, it's on my dashboard, it's the certificate I created
earnest phoenix
i removed it
slim heart
Ok and is it working?
earnest phoenix
do i put .setImage(body)
slim heart
@amber fractal are you doing it on the right port?
earnest phoenix
we told you multiple times
body returns the json
yes
you JSON.parse it which gives you a new object
look what he did tell above
yes, it returns a new object
slim heart
Then you set the return parsed to a variable THEN you use that
JSON.parse(var) doesnโt redefine var
amber fractal
Yes, I have it on the right poty, I cant connect to it otherwise
It even says that it has the certificate
amber fractal
slim heart
Ok and then did you put said origin certificate on your origin server?
slim heart
Oh if youโre using nginx just add the ssl_certificate options and whatnot
slim heart
O then just make the node use the ssl or sumn
amber fractal
That is in node
slim heart
Yea isnโt hat what u want?
slim heart
Wait one second let me look at what I do
amber fractal
I cant have them on the same port
amber fractal
It has both
slim heart
That error would mean that cert is invalid
amber fractal
earnest phoenix
try using a different cert like from letsencrypt
slim heart
The actual cert cert
So like make sure you copied them properly and make sure the site you used is available in the scope of the origin cert you used
I think the key is something wrong because it has proper info for your cert
amber fractal
Ill try to recopy it
slim heart
You need to copy the thing it gives you only once when you first make it
The private key
amber fractal
I did
slim heart
Maybe do the โutf8โ param just in case? Iโm pretty sure thatโs the default but I mean worth a shot

i was doing class

oh
i think i realized my mistake

is . for class and # for id?

Yea. Use urls because if itโs just a constant specific images then yea thereโs no point in making it slower etc.

. For class # for id

then it should work

Coulda just said yes lol

but it doesnt

okay im just even more confused
this is fucking annoying
it works when writing the css in a <style> tag
but not when importing it
:angery:

tested, no need for semicolons if its on the last line
and everything works
except the class
queen sentinel
then I am of no help
dusky marsh
I've ran into a similiar problem before
mossy vine
well how did you fix it?
dusky marsh
I literally just deleted everything and started in a different directory, I never got to the underlying issue
mossy vine
this is some sick joke
i restarted the localhosted webserver (python -m http.server) and its working
this is a fucking joke
welp okay then
mossy vine
yeah
amber fractal
I finally got it working.
@mossy vine its because css does that, reload cache with it
Ctrl shift r the page
amber fractal
This works for me if you use php and it stops working again
mossy vine
i dont use php
amber fractal
It's p good
mossy vine
eh, i didnt find a use for it so ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
earnest phoenix
php is insecure and a mess
it can be secure if used properly, which 99% of times it isnt

I use webpack with versioning enabled when transpiling the assets, so all URLs for JS and CSS files gets some unique ID added to the end of it until it is used again, works quite well for forcing the browser to re-download the assets when there are changes.

i never used php tbh

Alright, I have a question. I have an Oauth thing for people to log into a website, I'm at the point where I get the token to make the request to authorize them. How should I go about storing users so they dont have to log in every time and how should I check if they logged in?
restive mantle
I might be wrong, but that requires a php/MySQL database. If you want one free use phpMyAdmin, however phpmyadmin is really bad at securing your data. So if you decide to use it dont be shocked if someone gets access to it. Or just buy one ๐ hope that helped!@amber fractal
amber fractal
Wouldnt people just be able to see the password if I out this in my page tho
That's an example obviously
reading up on it
inner jewel
no
php is rendered server side
the php code will be gone
unless you fuck up and send the php file without processing it
but you can just close the db port
so outside connections can't access it
restive mantle
there you go xD^
viral spade
Hello, i have a question:
Is it too much work for a relational database to make an update query (increment a value) on every (non-bot) message event from any user of any guild? How many guilds can i support approx with an average vps?
restive mantle
What would you call the average vps?
inner jewel
"is it too much work" depends on what database you're using
restive mantle
yasmin can you plz change my nick...
inner jewel
but any real database can easily handle tens of thousands of queries per second
viral spade
@ yasmin mysql
@ hoister a 5$ digitalocean vps
restive mantle
a ok gotcha ๐
inner jewel
it should handle that
even with thousands of guilds you won't be getting enough messages to bottleneck the db
viral spade
ok perfect. i just wanna support at least 20k before i would have to reimplement
restive mantle
If you using a free open source software like glitch on the other hand, it will fill up very quickly
inner jewel
and even if the db becomes a bottleneck, if the data doesn't have to be extremely accurate, you could keep a counter on the bot, and periodically write to the db
viral spade
sure that was always an option but ofc i would like to avoid caching as it adds extra complexity. my more preferred option was to use redis or some other in memory db.
amber fractal
So is a MySQL database the way to go with authorizing discord users to the site then?
viral spade
but no eyxperience with redis and i need compound keys and complex queries for this and it seems difficult to achieve in redis ..eghh..
inner jewel
there's no "the way to go" database
amber fractal
Well
inner jewel
you use the database that's more appropriate for what you have
viral spade
i think mysql is the way to go when youre starting as it is very established and has lots of resources
inner jewel
oracle tho
amber fractal
How would I be able to tell if they logged in, cookies or something? I should really take a more advanced web development class 
viral spade
sessions
inner jewel
yes you should learn webdev
you can use cookies, you can use localstorage + js, <insert dozens of other alternatives>
amber fractal
I use local storage for themes
Do the codes that it gives you on redirect expire?
Well I expect they do
just how long
inner jewel
just instantly exchange them
earnest phoenix
hey
when i put the.. database firebase on my bot index
Its say on log a error "Duplicated File"

Is this not how you would make a request after getting an OAuth2 token?
I got a 401, idk why it'd be unauthorized tho

you need to exchange your code for an access token

So I need to make another request I'm guessing

301 isn't an error
it's a redirection
heck
amber fractal
If it doesnt work I call it an error
and it didnt work
and it's code was 301
therefore it was an error with the code 301
topaz fjord
but that's not the correct terminology
topaz fjord
You should
amber fractal
Why?
topaz fjord
because
amber fractal
There is no good reason
topaz fjord
understanding http response codes is the first step to success
earnest phoenix
if you want to explain what your process of doing oauth is i can help you
amber fractal
I mean it shouldnt matter should it? It's just giving me access denied with and without authorization on the post request
I get the code then make the request
I don't actually know any other way to explain it
amber fractal
Redirect to authorize > get code > fail post request
earnest phoenix
what do you pass to the POST
amber fractal
topaz fjord
can you show the whole thing
it's hard to work with pieces when trying to help
just take out any sensitive stuff when posting

basically you can show everything but the client secret

have you ensured the codes match
amber fractal
Yep
The code in my url is the same one that it logged when I last tested
I thought it was client secret at first, but I regened and copied again, no luck
earnest phoenix
'scope': 'identify' in the post data is redundant, it doesn't ask for it
earnest phoenix
and your redirect uri matches?
earnest phoenix
something in those props doesn't match
amber fractal
wym
earnest phoenix
because i have the equivalent of that in c# and it works
recheck values you're passing
amber fractal
weird, I ensured the id is right, the secret and the code
I can post the code it gives me right?
Theres no harm with that?
earnest phoenix
and redirect uri?
amber fractal
Just my website
earnest phoenix
are you sure it's correct though
amber fractal
If copy pasting it from my browser could be wrong, I'd be upset
hushed berry
@amber fractal am i missing something or is the body never attached to the post req?
amber fractal
It is
hushed berry
where?
amber fractal
tokenGrant.write(postData);
hushed berry
oh i see
amber fractal
It's the same result if I append it to the end of the url
hushed berry
that may not actually work
amber fractal
Well I did it both ways
hushed berry
is that the correct way to do form encoded things?
earnest phoenix
if it turns into url parameters
that's not how it works
you have to define values in the request body
hushed berry
i dont think hes wrong there
hushed berry
form-urlencoded is defined as just that
hushed berry
?
amber fractal
Regened, it logs the new secret, same message tho
earnest phoenix
can you screenshot your redirect uris page on the discord app page
amber fractal
earnest phoenix
weird
earnest phoenix
im rereading discord's docs
amber fractal
If you have any ideas mention me so I can find them later ๐
earnest phoenix
seems that they require the scope param now too
amber fractal
Yeah, I had it there
I would need that in my initial redirect to authorize too wouldnt I?
earnest phoenix
yes
it might be something with your lib to make http requests
try a different one and see if it still occurs i guess?
amber fractal
I tried it with request and node https
This is what I got when I added the scope to the initial redirect, weird
earnest phoenix
i'm going to try booting up my old copy of oauth authorization and see if it works
amber fractal
Oh
earnest phoenix
errors are happening to me too
earnest phoenix
wait
i think i know a problem with mine
unmatched redirect uris
let me add and see again
amber fractal
I just went straight to the dev page and copied the link it gave me
And now it doesnt give me a response, weird
earnest phoenix
works flawlessly for me
https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=336861298459410434&redirect_uri=http://localhost&response_type=code&scope=identify%20guilds
amber fractal
I have it redirect to my /auth then to the home page, https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=529553417882959872&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fpetbot.tk%2Fauth&response_type=code&scope=identify
I just dont understand why it's access denied you know?
hushed berry
@amber fractal didnt you say you got 401 and not 403
hushed berry
ik
amber fractal
I had the wrong page
amber fractal
This is all it gives me
hushed berry
You should be able to pull the code out of the response
amber fractal
that's logging the whole thing
because the request is successful
that's discords response
Actually yeah
why doesnt it give me the code
earnest phoenix
https://youtu.be/tSTf29f8vV0 as you can see it works flawlessly here
sorry for the bd logo too lazy to crack it just for a demonstration
auth process -> authorized -> grab the code by using new URL(..).searchParams.get("code") -> make a request to my backend
my backend then does a POST with the method i sent above
amber fractal
I'm just honestly not gonna do it for now. I dont know why it says access denied and I dont have the time to figure it out
amber fractal
What do you mean json data?
for what
If you're talking about this, I know
It's a querystring
scarlet bane
did you create all_items_message before your for loop?
I can't see it in your snippet
high lava
While using this code as a promise, whether I use it like this or with Async/await it simply seems to skip over the .awaitMessages() method and go straight to trying to send an empty message.
m.channel.awaitMessages(filter, { max: 1, time: 10000, errors: ['time'] }).then(input => m.channel.send(input)).catch(err => console.log(err));
And yes, filter is defined elsewhere in the code
spring ember
What lib is that
high lava
djs
spring ember
What version
high lava
stable
spring ember
Also awaitMessages returns a promise of a collection @high lava
high lava
thanks for that. That helped me avoid a problem before I encountered it
Turns out I made one little typo in my filter so it still counted a null input from the bot before hand

Anyone know lots about discords rate-limiting? I have a bot that plays a game over DMs with many people (it's a MUD, for the curious) and I'm curious about when I might run into problems. I'm not concerned much about "per-channel" limits, more about "(when) Will Discord API care if I hammer out, say, 50 DMs to 50 different users, every few seconds"
mossy vine
dont mass dm
blazing mason
I've done a little research but haven't been able to find much that's specific about that
well, that's how it works
mossy vine
mass dming is api abuse no matter how you do it
blazing mason
ok, then, my question is "when is it mass dming"?
mossy vine
what do you count as "many" people?
mossy vine
it also depends on how many games are played at once, rate-limit can quickly fuck you up
sinful lotus
mass dming consists of intentionally sending dm in a loop on all users the bot can seee
blazing mason
right. that's why I'm asking
no, that's totally 100% not what I'm doing then
so, what I'm asking is not "should I do this?", but "how far is it ok to do what I'm already doing?"
mossy vine
say its like 3 people and there are 10 games running, i doubt that would really be api abuse
blazing mason
yeah, that's also not the concern, it's all very, very opt-in and voluntary
it's one single, shared game, with many people
when something interesting happens "in-game", it may DM all the active players. Players "login" and "logout" to set their "active" status.
no one ever gets DM'd that doesn't want/expect it, that sort of thing, it's all very polite with regards to users
it's being rude to like, "the discord API" that I'm worried about, in that, like... well, an important game event might DM 50 users (who are all willing and opted-in to receive such a DM, and probably waiting in anticipation for it even ๐ )
is DMing 50 users that are totally expecting it, at once, ok? How about if I do that once a minute?
those are the sorts of questions I have. (those aren't my exact questions/numbers)
blazing mason
so yeah, always interested in any discussions around that, if anyone wants to engage.
It's already an ongoing project and stuff, so it's not a "don't that thing". I have players and users and world editors that are enjoying what they're doing.
It's a "how far can I take this and still be OK with the API?" thing. And a "ok, how can me as a developer and my users still have fun and stay OK?". (And, eventually, I'm sure it'll come to a "Well, I guess we've outgrown this and I'll make a webapp instead" thing.)
icy sorrel
I think the main issue you're gonna run into is hitting the ratelimit on Discords end, if the bot grows and more people would need to be DMed you wouldn't be able to send the message to enough people fast enough under the Discord limits, but yeah send them an email or DM them about it to make sure it's alright.
blazing mason
yeah, that's a good idea I guess, thanks. Was just thinking some people here might have made something similar or had experience with something like that.
Like... suppose you made a bot that watched stocks, and then sent out DMs to anyone that opt-ed in
that would be rather similar to what I'm doing. a bot like that might DM 50 users "Hey, Amazon just dropped below your watch point!"
ah, good thoughts there, too... thanks Senither
and all of you
I use discord.js and wrote a handler to watch for rate limit events. The only time I see them is on "per channel" limits -- I'm DMing a single user too fast. That's fine, that doesn't break my game. Discord.js seems real chill with it's backoff feature and won't abuse the API once it hits those.
I haven't seen any other rate limit events telling me like, "Hey, you're just flat out DOING TOO MUCH"
(yet)
dense dove
If that's the case... doesn't yag bot mass dm for their cards of humanity game?
sinful lotus
the rate limit event just emit if d.js is doing the ratelimit preventer to prevent you going upward that ratelimit
you could also adjust the ratelimit preventer a bit
blazing mason
Nice! That's great info there... there's a Cards of Humanity bot that may do something similar!
tyvm
dense dove
That's on yag bot btw
blazing mason
Are you sure QuantumQt? It looks like a response header thing from the server. It tells me the difference between me and the server time, and stuff like that.
I thought it like... waited for a single time that the server was like "Hey, I'm gonna limit you, back off" and then it was like, ok... will handle
sinful lotus
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/master/typedef/ClientOptions read client optionns
blazing mason
yag bot. thanks. that's great info
sinful lotus
then look on the stuff that starts with rest
and d.js handle the request "before you reach the ratelimit"
blazing mason
ahhh... so I'm getting REST responses, not 500 errors I think? Am I saying that right?
sinful lotus
thats about the ratelimit handler of d.js
blazing mason
yeah, but... ok... yeah I think I'm getting it
yeah, thanks for that page, that's super helpful too
this game is like... I don't suppose anyone's familar with a MUD? Multi-user Dungeon?
like, text-adventure RPG game with multiplayers, kinda?
...runescape without the graphics?
sinful lotus
well as I said as long as you dont do something like using a bot to mass dm people an invite link
or using that to advertise
blazing mason
noooo nothing every remotely like that heh
sinful lotus
also if they opt in
dense dove
There's partnerships bot that do just that...
sinful lotus
I dont think thats api abuse either ways
blazing mason
this is is legit application, and like, fun, and totally opt-in
dense dove
Shouldn't those be discontinued?
sinful lotus
all you need to do is just dont get over the permitted requests per sec or mins
blazing mason
if the bot DMs you at all it's because you said "hey, I'm interested in receiving these specific DMs" and a single command turns them off totally
sinful lotus
but tbh if you have doubts about ratelimits in discord's api till now, better ask in Discord API Server
blazing mason
I care sooo much about my users, this project is so cool to see it working, and people walking around in a game world and mobs and stuff, I don't want to piss anyone off.
dense dove
blazing mason
Yeah, will do that, thanks. Really interested in hearing about any other bots that anyone can think of that sound similar, too... gives me a great "yardstick" to go "Ohhh well that one stock watcher bot I know about has to be sending out like, ...."
That was about the "closest" example I've thought of, a stock watcher bot or something. The use case is totally different, but it might have very similar traffic (and totally similar in that no one is ever getting DMs they wouldn't want/expect)
That yag bot/CaH example sounds great, too, thanks for that.
Thanks again everyone for the insights and thoughts and links and info!
I don't want to use the "partnership bot" as an example to anyone I'm talking to about my project, 'cuz I don't want to be grouped with that sort of application at all. But that's interesting to know that that's a thing, I didn't really consider those bots. Yuk.

you learn a programming language first

stable or master?
unborn bloom
"discord.js": "^11.4.2",
sinful lotus
<channel>.permissionsFor(<guild>.me).has(["VIEW_CHANNEL", "SEND_MESSAGES"])

@rotund sinew best way to host a bot is a vps, yes it's possible to host a bot on github, but it's more likely you can get your bot token stolen and get banned for api abuse that way

The thing is I can't afford a vps...

do you have a computer you don't use much?
you can run the program off the computer
and leave it running

If you do $ban User it crashes the whole bot, anyone got any ideas how to fix that?
mossy vine
if (!member) return
also dont do message.member.roles.find
instead check for permission
not every server names their moderators the same
rotund sinew
I've had trouble with permissions
Using the docs, the bot comes back with errors
if (!member) return Where would that go?
