Glitch is not recommended
mossy vine
please dont
grim aspen
don't use glitch
spare goblet
don't use glitch unless you want a glitch
stray garnet
@mossy vine its working fine for me
spare goblet
glitch works if your bot is tiny and you don't mind downtimes 
mossy vine
just because its working well for you doesnt mean everyone should use it
grim aspen
don't panic
stray garnet
@spare goblet hmm true
spare goblet
do prepare that your uptime will not be 99.999% (perhaps like 95% if you watch your bot SUPER closely)
grim aspen
if you don't have money for a vps, you can at least run it on a old computer you barely use
unique nimbus
yes
spare goblet
the free options are either p impossible to use or has lots of problems due to the free nature of it
mossy vine
@earnest phoenix Discord Presence extension
spare goblet
yeah you can, just use an extension or just use discord's default one
extension one gives you more info in-depth tho
just google it and you'll find it
no
on vsc extensions lol
just google "vsc extension discord presence"
you can also find it in vsc tho
in extensions tab
amber widget
What is the thing isWeekend ?
spare goblet
Not sure what youre referring to ^
There are multiple extensions but yeah that should work
late hill
@amber widget during weekends, votes count double.
You can use the isWeekend property to know if it's active or not (So you could give additional rewards to those who vote while it's active)
amber widget
@late hill Many thanks, Weekends is every Saturday and Sunday from a week ? I know what is weekend but just want to know if there is the same for dbl ^^.
coarse vapor
Could you please keep the bots previously submitted and add an option to resubmit via the website?
Kinda saves time and headache
Woops
spare goblet
@coarse vapor this channel's for asking questions and chatting about development and not for suggesting or sending files, so 👀
coarse vapor
Wrong server xd
cunning oxide
Yikes
coarse vapor
I thought I was in my bots server, and iOS doesn't allow you to see what channel your sending the file to very easily

late hill
How do embed character limits work with masked links? Would the entire link count or only the length of the displayed text?
mossy vine
the entire thing counts
late hill
rip
mossy vine
you are sending the markup/markdown content, discord checks if it fits all limits, and client renders it as link
late hill
right
ionic compass
discord API rate limits for messages are 5/5 right?
earnest phoenix
there's no "set in stone" ratelimit
they're dynamic
if you spam the endpoint too much they will change for you
ionic compass
thanks
slender thistle
(That's what I keep forgetting, ty fam)
ionic compass
hopefully this will be a safer engine, it had no protection before... 
bleak vortex
is there a way to disable those lines in vsc insiders
west spoke
Settings
earnest phoenix
@ionic compass if that's discord.net, it handles ratelimits for you, you don't have to do much
preemptive ratelimits exist only in the library, it just tells you that you got ratelimited and that it will put your requests on hold
ionic compass
thats true, but there was also a uh... pretty bad exploit in the script engine allowing for infinite looping of two or more commands

Mhm, I can see it now 
thank you
earnest phoenix
do maps save permanent or temporary data
mossy vine
js by default doesnt write, so its temporary in a way like every other variable is
mossy vine
if you dont need to load it on a bot restart, its good

You'll want to use a db if you want persistent data
mossy vine
^
amber fractal
Then you wont have persistent data
earnest phoenix
heroku
amber fractal
Heroku cant even write json files
mossy vine
iirc you can use mongodb atlas to get around that
mossy vine
they basically host a mongod instance for you
earnest phoenix
does heroku allow that ?
mossy vine
of course, since you arent editing any files locally, but sending requests to the mongo server
mossy vine
its free until you hit a certain limit afaik
but you could use clever data structures to use it to its fullest
or until you can get a vps
@earnest phoenix https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/
quartz kindle
Doesnt heroku have its own postgre integration?
Afaik its also free until certain limits
mossy vine
this is more of a general programming question, but i basically wanna shuffle the elements of an array. how many swaps should i do for n amount of elements?
earnest phoenix
lol
west spoke
@mossy vine get the array and use a random number generator tied to the array?
mossy vine
i know how to shuffle an array, just dont know how many swaps i should do for n amount of elements
n^2 is likely overkill and n*2 is likely not enough
west spoke
hm
bold dock
@earnest phoenix which command list?
split hazel
Oh
mossy vine
ok well time to shamelessly repost my question
this is more of a general programming question, but i basically wanna shuffle the elements of an array. how many swaps should i do for n amount of elements?
for n amount of elements thats a shit idea. what if n is over 100
split hazel
Google can answer your first question and for the second you could just slice the shuffled array by .slice(0, 100)
mossy vine
im thinking of doing either n*3 or n*4 but idk if that would provide results that are good enough
slender thistle
Off topic content spotted

oh thanks discord

how to do a random answer Command?
stray garnet
Hmm true
trail dagger
@stray garnet If you need like random message to a command look here
Import random
msg = ['randommessage1', 'randommessage2']
await ctx.send(randomchoice(msg))
One message removed from a suspended account.
trail dagger
can you cant?
stray garnet
Lol
stray garnet
@trail dagger hmm i Made it Harder
const Discord = require("discord.js")
module.exports.run = async (bot, message, args) => {
let replies = ["sample text 1", "sample text 2", "sample text 3"];
let result = Math.floor((Math.random() * replies.length));
let question = args.slice(1).join(" ");
message.channel.send(replies[result]);
}
module.exports.help = {
name: ""
aliases: []
}
trail dagger
ah shit discord.js
stray garnet
Yes exactly
trail dagger
i just saw "how to do a random answer Command?"

high tinsel
I hope there's someone good at JS now, this is not not related, I hope it doesn't matter, I need any help I can get 
url: requestURL,
headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
json: true,
dataType: 'json',
body: { "name": document.getElementById("playlist-name").value, "description": "Recommended tracks based on genre(s): " + genres + ". Playlist generated using Spup."}
};
this results in document not defined error, instead of the thing in the text field every time...
quartz kindle
Where are you running this?
document is a browser thing, is only exists in browsers, not in node.js
If you're running it in a browser, make sure you're not running it too early
high tinsel
thanks, I already found out that it only exists in a browser, that was the thing...
robust acorn
It takes a bit to update. Did it not update yet?
Are you applying for your bot to be listed on DBL?
try editing your bot and resubmitting it
mossy vine
@earnest phoenix refresh the page with ctrl + shift + r
earnest phoenix
Is there also a way to get all users instead of online user count with Discord.js?
This is the counter, but i bet there are here 50000+ users...?
knotty steeple
you can use memberCount on a guild object
earnest phoenix
Tsiica thats fetched members
Hmm ah
yeah use reduce() with mapping member size for each guild
Yeah i use now: client.users.size
that will give you cached users
Aha
Never understood MemberCount 😅
for a better result map the guild members size, and use reduce()
thats the complete amount you would need
Aha, is there a example where i can look? 😃
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/Reduce, when you map members size for each guild, it will return in an array, so you can use the reduce here.
Aha!
For further questions if you have, ping me please. Probably wont see if you type :D
Haha yeah it's really busy in here 😛
But don't really understand the memberCount part.
aight so do you know how to use collections?
Sort off 😅, don't work much with that part.
ah, then you should. Heres some tips that I can give, you should map the every guild by client.guilds.map() and turn all guild member size in an array
Ah yeah well i understand that part 😛
The only issue is the memberCount(), there is nothing on Internet about it...
Or i just searching wrong 😅
no need to look web :D every guild has a member amount so you should use size among their members
Ah
seems confusing but it isnt
Yeah XD
I'm sorry 😛
tulip wave
confusing to explain xD
earnest phoenix
Yeah
Learning MVC is a nice thing 😉
Makes Programming so easier, and so cleaner
see that Tsiica
Alright thanks! 😃
thats how map works generally
Yeah i see, but i don't know how to get the data of the MemberCount or to call it 😛
Never used that function of Discord.js, and there is not really much info about it.
Well look member is belonged with guilds, so you need to map every guild first. Every guild is mapped, and you need to get the member count for all. That might be confusing because explanation is hard
Yeah true. 😛
do you have an eval command?
No 😅 those are really dangerous xD
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Have made one xD
Strictly only on owner ID.

@fossil oxide can you add a LOOP button ?
unique nimbus
wdym loop button
smoky mica
if i want to send a message to a specific channel and it's not found, how can i create a channel with some permissions? I need some advice.
smoky mica
oh, discord.js
robust acorn
do you know how to create a channel?
mossy vine
robust acorn
I am not really proficient in discord.js, but you can use try and catch.
try to send a message
mossy vine
depends on how you find the channel
smoky mica
The docs confuse me so much at times, idk why.
mossy vine
if you are using an async method to find it, then try catch wont work
robust acorn
upon error, make the catch create the channel
mossy vine
i mean, the docs are clear and even provide examples
smoky mica
yeah haha i sometimes don't clearly look at them
marsh star
<@&304313580025544704> do you know if there will be any loop button on the bot? 😦
west raptor
why
marsh star
on Hydra bot
quartz kindle
You can check if channel exists with channels.get for example
smoky mica
Ahhh it worked! Thankyou.
loud salmon
@marsh star we arent the support server for hydra bot
smoky mica
Cyber, I forgot to mention the type of channel and some erros ._.
flat pelican
Why people needs to mention 15 mods for that...
pale marsh
]]atmods @marsh star and read the rules
covert turtleBOT
robust acorn
why are moderators, website administrators, etc even pingable
pale marsh
For the above reason
flat pelican
robust acorn
yeah, with an unjustifiable reason is punishable
quartz kindle
When will discord implement role ping permissions...
mossy vine
likely never
quartz kindle
Would prob be too much spaghetti to implement
ruby condor
is it against the API to tell your bot to create an invite to a specific server from a list of servers it is in?
robust acorn
If possible, please do not add that feature to your bot without permission from the owners of the servers
earnest phoenix
Would prob be too much spaghetti to implement```
imo it woudln't, it's just one more bit permission, check for it in the backend, if the person doesn't have perms to mention roles act as if the role is unmentionableit's just that the devs are more interested in making features that will bring them money
(guess DBL devs and discord devs have something in common 🙃 )
late hill
or just allow anyone with admin to tag any role
red atlas
^ yea
earnest phoenix
Hello, is anyone willing to help me make a bot?
robust acorn
what library do you want to use?
mossy vine
@earnest phoenix highly doubt. do you know any programming languages?
earnest phoenix
Visual Basic, some Java, and Python.
robust acorn
pick one and develop it
earnest phoenix
I have the code, but my friend was bad at teaching how to make that code into a bot...
mossy vine
the documentation is the best resource for learning
earnest phoenix
He did, then ditched on us so we're trying to scrabble together what he made.
I made the python code for a game, then gave that file to him just to implement into a bot, but he ditched.
robust acorn
do you have the bot token? if not create an application here https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/
earnest phoenix
Mind if I read some of the guides you have here and get back to you? Need to go for a bit.
And I'm excited to learn this stuff! Just on a bit of an unofficial deadline too XD
Be back soon.
robust acorn
cool! if you need help, feel free to ask questions!
quartz kindle
The spaghetti would be with which role has permiasion to mention which role. Or add a "can mention roles" along with the mention everyone
river dawn
Can anyone help me get this working?
I used to manually post my stats but that seemed to stop working so now I'm trying to use the python api
robust acorn
does it return an error?
if it did not return an error and did not update the server count on dbl, then the script never ran
river dawn
Yea it doesn't even seem to be printing anything
when i do it on my test bot it fails though
because i'm not using a real token
it fails and sends the failed message
I'll do some more testing
robust acorn
@river dawn you cannot run the script on a test bot
you would receive a 403 forbidden error
river dawn
I've also been trying on my actual one
robust acorn
and nothing prints
mossy vine
try a token reset?
robust acorn
if it fails to authorize, you would receive a 403 error
if not, all your token and bot are correct
river dawn
I'll try resetting the token
Yea i'm not even getting an error when I run it on my actual bot
robust acorn
try leaving it running for 3 minutes
river dawn
Ok
robust acorn
lets see if it is timed out
robust acorn
since some bots refuse to return auth error for 3 min or so
and what file is this running on
river dawn
What do u mean
robust acorn
is it running on your main file?
river dawn
No
robust acorn
or a separate file from your bot
robust acorn
try printing stuff until you know what part does not load
river dawn
Ok

How do I get the latest number from this list
Specifically 75028720
robust acorn
what do you mean
@untold matrix
you want to get the largest number in a json file?
untold matrix
No to get the latest number
I think I understand Cyber's explaination
Im getting the keys from the objects right now and working on the code
mossy vine
latest = largest in your case, no?
robust acorn
oh I see what you mean
untold matrix
No
untold matrix
Latest
river dawn
I'm getting unauthorized
untold matrix
Im using axios to get the data from the JSON
robust acorn
so your trying to retrieve data from the latest number?
mossy vine
@river dawn regen token
river dawn
I regened before I tested this time
robust acorn
you got a 403 error?
quartz kindle
in that list, 7502881 should be the latest, not 75028720
river dawn
401
raise Unauthorized(resp, data) dbl.errors.Unauthorized: Unauthorized (status code: 401)

https://discordbots.org/api/docs#mybots get token here
river dawn
Yea thats where I got it from
robust acorn
yes the token is somewhat long so just triple click
prime jetty
is it against TOS to use livebot on your own bot?
prime jetty
like,
river dawn
The token goes off the page so I just highlight the whole thing by doulbe clicking
prime jetty
robust acorn
triple click
river dawn
Yea its the same
prime jetty
with the token
river dawn
I just inspected the page
prime jetty
is it allowed?
robust acorn
oh texting through your bot
prime jetty
or against tos?
robust acorn
you are not allowed to sign in to your bot
mossy vine
iirc that is against tos
robust acorn
yes it is against the tos
prime jetty
"BUT BOTS STILL SHOULD BE OKAY"
robust acorn
you cannot sign in to your bot and read messages in channels and text
mossy vine
i dont think discord is cracking down on these, so just use it at your own risk
robust acorn
and self bots are definitely not allowed
prime jetty
not with nitro and that stuff
river dawn
I got it working now! Thanks guys.
robust acorn
yay!
smoky mica
https://pastebin.com/49biW4bW
Can someone explain why this doesn't work lol. It works without the try catch command tho.
earnest phoenix
what does the stacktrace say
robust acorn
define "not working"
smoky mica
nothing. it doesn't say anything/
not working as in it doesn't send the embed to the suggestions channel.
pale marsh
Shouldn't you await?
robust acorn
thats probably because of the return statement
smoky mica
I was wondering.. give me a sec
earnest phoenix
also, if the user doesn't have an avatar, the avatarURL prop will be null/undefined
smoky mica
uh yeah i was gonna change that later, just tryna fix this
ahh it doesn't work even with the await
earnest phoenix
have you tried to console.log the error itself and not the stack
orchid echo
Hey friends, the svg Widget for the Bot I just created is not showing up.
Does it take time to populate or something like that?

only valid in a async function

Put the code in a async function

guys i need help about reading the last line of a txt file from node and an if command for it
for example if text file's last line contains hello then...
steel drum
hey, I am trying to collection all the guilds between all the various shards on my bot. I tried Bot.shard.fetchClientValues('guilds'); but that returns this [{}], any advice on what I should do?
earnest phoenix
After your need to call the function
@steel drum its returning a collection i think
inner jewel
you won't be able to
since it needs to serialize the data, you'll get errors due to cyclic references
steel drum
!eval Bot.shard.fetchClientValues('guilds').array(); returns an error saying array isnt a property
so im ggoing to to assume that its just an array
also b c when i tried typeof it returns object object
earnest phoenix
Why do you want that?
inner jewel
if you try to send client.guilds/client/guilds/a guild/any variation of this, you'll get this reference cycle
Client -> guilds -> Guild -> client
î |
\-----------------------------/
which can't be serialized
steel drum
what would you suggest doing then ?
steel heath
You sure you can fetch it with fetchClientValues? You can only fetch like guilds.size or stuff afaik
earnest phoenix
console.log(s)
});```I want to send an announcement in every server my bot is in
amber fractal
TOS
steel heath
Use broadcastEval to eval something with it
inner jewel
you'll get ratelimited to hell doing that
steel heath
And yeah tos
steel drum
hmm
steel drum
how many guilds would I be able to send a message to before getitng rate limited?
amber fractal
Ratelimits are flexible
steel heath
5min interval for a sharded bot (at least 2500 guilds) means hell of a uptime
amber fractal
There are no real defined, explicit ratelimits
steel drum
understandably
amber fractal
Why do you want to send an announcement
earnest phoenix
^
steel drum
for bot feature updates
restive light
guys anyone can help me?
amber fractal
That can usually be done through a support channel
earnest phoenix
Add a command, and promote the command in the help command @steel drum
amber fractal
@restive light dont ask to ask
steel drum
not everyone wants to join a support channel
earnest phoenix
like <prefix>update
steel heath
use your website for announcements or make people can set a updates channel via command
is the best way imo
robust acorn
you should make server owners consent to it in a way
steel drum
of course
restive light
I need reading a txt file's last line and sending it to a channel in every 1 seconds without repeating the same message , spamming and without sending blank messages
My project: sending a game's logs to a dc channel
robust acorn
you can try asking the server owners to make a channel called {your-bot-name announcements}
earnest phoenix
Google ?
robust acorn
and have your bot scan all channels and send only in those channels
amber fractal
Using discord as logs is very bad
restive light
no my plan is not that
amber fractal
And got roblox webhooks banned for it 
steel drum
@restive light I think something involving webhooks would be better
restive light
getting game's chats in every second
when thats done, ill do sending message to a game from dc
dc to game game to dc
amber fractal
Yes, that's what got roblox banned
amber fractal
Im just saying same implication
restive light
well that game is for programmers
people creates their own programs for that game
actually i wanted to creating an IRC bot but reading from txt and sending it is easier way i guess
and i wish discord doesnt have any forbidden something for game chatting IRC#bots
(if created irc is using for hacking, they are right)
ember atlas
const discord = require('discord.js');
const moment = require("moment");

i just want to creating and learning at same tmie
earnest phoenix
cause spoonfeeding doesnt help learning
restive light
time*
pale marsh
Create the sample yourself. Try and make mistakes. Make a lot of them. Then work on fixing them one by one
That's how you learn
indigo sun
@restive light you could go to the server for your bots api wrapper thing (eg discordjs) and ask questions there
they have extra large size spoons
earnest phoenix
@restive light why do you want that?
amber fractal
I personally learn from trial and error. And a lot of it
restive light
@earnest phoenix i can understand easily when someone makes sample and tells me how to do / solve it
for example like maths
i use this way for learning
indigo sun
why do you want to log hi every second
grim aspen
it sounds like a plan to keep the bot online
grim aspen
why not use a vps
restive light
i put log hi for testing
indigo sun
oh
earnest phoenix
How to nuke discord:
Put a event listener in a interval
@restive light testing what?
restive light
interval
earnest phoenix
lol
restive light
interval logs hi every second but doesnt sends messages to dc in every second
grim aspen
i'm loosing braincells
restive light
my problem is about "console.log('hi')
earnest phoenix
problem solved
restive light
so why this #development channel is opened for?
for saying "Go and learn docs"
?
earnest phoenix
For helping people with a minimum knowledge
grim aspen
hey kens nickname test bunny
restive light
i already wanted a minimum knowledge
grim aspen
let's say i come in here for help for every single piece of code that i never learned
earnest phoenix
hi
Okay, if you want to say hi every second take that
console.log('hi')
}, 1000)```wouldn't that be annoying?
restive light
i guess you dont understand what i ask meh
i have issue about sending messages to dc every seconds
earnest phoenix
interval logs hi every second but doesnt sends messages to dc in every second
@restive light you can't send a message every 1 second without a ratelimit
He can if its in console.log
yh
restive light
doesnt sends messages to dc in every second?
earnest phoenix
What is dc?
You can't if it's being ratelimited
Discord channel
you can with 6s second interval
But 1 second is not allowed
Api abuse
i mean yh, you'd get banned for abusing it
restive light
actually something like scans txt file in every 1 secs and sends txt's last line when a new one added to it
earnest phoenix
Its good
earnest phoenix
🤦 this went from discord channel to txt file
Send the txt file to the channel
Problem solved
restive light
another program (written in vb6) saves games logs to txt and dc bot reads and sends it to dc
and same as dc to game too
dc game <> game dc
restive light
okay
earnest phoenix
cuz i didn't understand at all
Use fs @restive light
fs.readFile(poem.txt, 'utf8', function (err,data) {
if (err) {
return console.log(err);
}
console.log(data.last()); });```I have put last but i think last doesn't exist in djs
restive light
a program written in vb6 enters the game and saves logs to a txt file. Discord bot reads text file's last line in every 1 seconds and sends new line to discord
discord bot saves chats from discord to txt and vb6 program reads and sends chats to game
idk if you understand
earnest phoenix
Dude
Use fs
fs.readFile(poem.txt, 'utf8', function (err,data) {
if (err) {
return console.log(err);
}
setInterval(function() {
bot.channels.get('id').send(data.last());
}, 1500);
});
yh imma leave it to ken, my brain's fried from lua stuff
restive light
i thought creating an irc between dc and game with winsocks is the hardest way
looks likes js is the hardest and annoying way
earnest phoenix
js is very easy 
earnest phoenix
// ready event
module.exports = async client => {
client.user.setActivity(`BRUHHH TRAIN`, {type: "WATCHING"});
};```how about no
young hill
Nothing better than realizing you need to set up sharding after your bot is submitted
earnest phoenix
Can someone help me find the guide for making a bot with python? Looking but hard to find it

nocturne hazel
Anybody know why the font isn't being used on the text?
It's still using the default sans serif
here is my code:
Canvas.registerFont('Rockout.otf', { family: 'Rockout'})
const canvas = Canvas.createCanvas(700, 250);
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
const background = await Canvas.loadImage('./background.jpg');
ctx.drawImage(background, 0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
ctx.strokeStyle = '#000000';
ctx.strokeRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height)
ctx.font = '28px "Rockout"';
ctx.fillStyle - '#000000';
ctx.fillText('Welcome to the server,', canvas.width / 2.5, canvas.height / 3.5)
No error in console as well
earnest phoenix
You need to register the font
Oh already do
You need to link the folder, where is the font
nocturne hazel
In the same folder as the index.js file
earnest phoenix
Uh idk if canvas can register otf font

@white brook
You want the id of a channel?
Or make the bot join a channel with a id?
white brook
Yeah
earnest phoenix
What yeah?
white brook
make the bot join a channel with a id
white brook
I. Need the code
cunning oxide
@earnest phoenix let me google that for you woulda been cooler
tulip wave
Snipe no one will give you the code here
white brook
Where
cunning oxide
Nobody should give you code here. As I said, it’s against the rules.

Hey guys, I know ya'll wanna be helpful but this channel is flooding quickly. So keep it constructive and helpful.
cunning oxide
@white brook try googling, there are a ton of examples. If you’re struggling with one specific error or part of the code, then we can help.
tulip wave
@white brook start by reading the discord.js docs then search what you want on Google it's out there somewhere
earnest phoenix

Thank you @earnest phoenix

earnest phoenix
it's saying .forEach is not defined IDK why
const { Client, Collection } = require("discord.js");
const { token } = require("./bot-config.json");
const bot = new Client()
["commands", "aliases"].forEach(x => bot[x] = new Collection());
["message", "command", "event"].forEach(x => require(`./handlers/${x}`)(bot));
bot.login(token);
Any other details like ERROR Code,?
Also, I wouldn't advise following many Github repositories.
earnest phoenix
I did this from a tutorial
lemme get the full error
/home/pi/BasicallyBS/body.js:5
["commands", "aliases"].forEach(x => bot[x] = new Collection());
^

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJxS4YSgG9o&list=PLWnw41ah3I4ZfNLV3by7nB6JO2WcCc3Wj&index=20
drowsy sentinel
Yeah... I wouldn't exactly advise following these tutorials as I have seen him explicitly abuse the API without knowledge of it.
earnest phoenix
so I should just stick to my command handler?
drowsy sentinel
Null out the aliases line and see if the one below works.
I think its just whatever is being passed within the parameters.
earnest phoenix
same error
something about forEach
You're trying to forEach an array
yes...
For what?
drowsy sentinel
That's not the problem lemaaa.
earnest phoenix
So I can use the event handeler done in menudocs... although i don't fully know his file setup
Look here scripted
Its a basic command handler taken from docs
drowsy sentinel
All it does calls a async loop for event and command files.
earnest phoenix
ok.... i'll try it
copper crystal
What could be the reason for a Discord bot automatically regenerating its token?
copper crystal
Surely an email would be sent and the owner of the bot would be banned as well.
earnest phoenix
What
copper crystal
If the bot gets banned, surely they will send an email and ban the bot owner as well.
earnest phoenix
Not for a application ban
Ok, i got mine fixed
Just contact discord at support@discordapp.com if you need help about that
You're not the first with this issue

@stray garnet array text file random?

Nope
earnest phoenix
What @stray garnet
quartz hill
How do I know the number of users on all servers where the bot is located?(nodejs)
stray garnet
hmm Just get a Serverlist Command that is only for you
earnest phoenix
sum all of your guild's memberCount property
stark beacon
so once I have the nodejs stuff at the top with client key and such,
Is this all I need to get the server count and member count to show up correctly on the Discord Bots website?
client.on('ready', () => {
setInterval(() => {
dbl.postStats(client.guilds.size, client.shards.Id, client.shards.total);
}, 1800000);
});
bascially, yeah
stark beacon
mk, thanks!
mossy vine
but keep in mind how setInterval works
stark beacon
yea, so it'll take time for the first post
mossy vine
yeah thats what i was about to say
stark beacon
I guess I could run it once now, to set it, then put it back in the interval
mossy vine
or you could post it in the ready event, and then the setInterval
stark beacon
ahh true true
dbl.webhook is undefined for me it says
rather it cannot read the property of on, of undefined, which is dbl.webhook
wheat jolt
earnest phoenix
what does that even mean
tulip wave
Translation? Maybe
stark beacon
dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
});
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`);
});
which is this
the cannot read property on error, for line 150 in my code
Although I guess I don't really need that, as it looks like server count is coming through now

I have a question, how to check if a bot, for example my bot, has the permissions for sending (embed_links)
I searched, but .has_permissions won't work

How did you use has_permissions?

Are you using commands extension?

Can u help me?
I would like to delete a channel that I search by name, but delete the channel by its id. I tested this,
let channel = message.guild.channels.find(c => c.name == args[1] && c.type == "voice");
let channelid = channel.id;
message.channel.send(":white_check_mark: Le channel ``" + args[1] + "`` a bien été créée !" + channel).then(msg => {msg.delete(8000).then(c => {channelid.delete()})});
but the console says to me:
(node:5296) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: channel.id.delete is not a function
somber verge
idk d.js but there should be some kind of client.delete_channel() function, go look it up
west spoke
earnest phoenix
@plucky sun message.guild.channels.get(channelid).delete()
or you can call delete() on the already fetched instance
saving memory with cry™
message.channel.send("✅ Le channel ``" + args[1] + "`` a bien été créée !" + channel).then(msg => {msg.delete(8000)} ```You can do that @plucky sun
idk if .delete() work on a .find()
i dont think bc its returning a collection so you need to map it
plucky sun
ok i try
earnest phoenix
it returns a channel thonk
If it doesn't work replace .delete() by .map(e => e.delete());
A collection of channel
channels is a collection of channels, find returns a channel instance, as per docs Searches for a single item where its specified property's value is identical to the given value 🤔
yes but its not returning only one channel
robust acorn
use get_channel(id)
earnest phoenix
its js not py dank uwu
Lemaaa, im almost certain it does return only one channel; Searches for a single item ...
smoky spire
robust acorn
try using getChannelByID
earnest phoenix
^
ah yeah i'm dumb
reading from the code above, they don't have access to the id
which is why they're using find in the first place
@plucky sun replace find by filter
plucky sun
doesn't work i search another solutions ty

ember atlas
Anyone got a good tutorial for setting up mongodb?
robust acorn
@ember atlas I can help with mongodb
Did you create a database already on their site?
earnest phoenix
Alguien me podria ayudar, necesito poner mi bot aqui pero no he podido y se los agreadeceria un monton
Somebody could help me, I need to put my bot here but I have not been able to and it would be a lot
high lava
Keep in mind, you have to know what code you need help with
ember atlas
@robust acorn If this is what I did, then yes. https://i.imgur.com/ddrA24D.png
robust acorn
so you already established connections?
check the collections tab and check if you already have an existing database
ember atlas
@robust acorn It looks like I do.
robust acorn
also what library are you using?
ember atlas
djs
robust acorn
does someone else know your log in info or your database url?
high lava
When you establish a connection in your code, did you put /your-database-name after the url?
ember atlas
havent done that yet
thats what i am here for
i also dont have a database and need to make one
high lava
Im guessing DJS?
robust acorn
you said you had sample databases
try to make a database within the collection
there should only be one url to connect to an account
which gains access to do stuff with api
ember atlas
Whats the collection name?
high lava
afaik, you don't actually need to do that after mongoDB is setup
robust acorn
once you open a collection, it should have the name in the format of database-name.collection-name
high lava
Just set it up like it said in the NPM page with /desired-database-name after your host ip
