use shift

hollow saddle Jul 18, 2019, 3:35 PM

#

Usually that's already removed in your definition of args

#

But yeah shift

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:35 PM

#

args.shift().join ..

hollow saddle Jul 18, 2019, 3:35 PM

#

shift removes the first element of an array

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 3:36 PM

#

^ and returns it. so you cant chain it like that

earnest phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 3:36 PM

#

@swift topaz or args[0]

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 3:36 PM

#

use slice(1) for chaining

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

@earnest phoenix they wanna remove it not get it

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

TypeError: args.shift(...).join is not a function

earnest phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

yeah

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

@swift topaz read what i just said

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

what tim said sorry

earnest phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 3:38 PM

#

args.slice(1).join(" ")

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:38 PM

#

that's just unnecessary

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:39 PM

#

ohh it works now. Thanks everyone! 😄

#

I haven't really fully understood the Documentation yet so, I really appreciate all your help!

#

I tried sending the notes to another channel with this:

            notesChannel.send(msg.author, `Note: ${args.slice(1).join(' ')}`);
        ```
but got this error 
`TypeError: Cannot create property 'reply' on string 'Note: Make bot work!'`

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:48 PM

#

msg.author, ... is wrong

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:49 PM

#

msg.channel.send(msg.author, attachment); this works though when I made an attachment response

topaz fjord Jul 18, 2019, 3:50 PM

#

what are you trying to get the bot to ssy

#

say

smoky spire Jul 18, 2019, 3:50 PM

#

the attachment one works because the second parameter is messageoptions, which happens to have an attachment parameter

topaz fjord Jul 18, 2019, 3:50 PM

#

^

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:51 PM

#

for example, I typed in a!note Make bot work in a different channel, I want the bot to output the Note: Make bot work like in the notes channel

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:51 PM

#

send('note ...')

topaz fjord Jul 18, 2019, 3:51 PM

#

Then why do you need to pass msg.author

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:51 PM

#

I want the bot to mention the one who requested the note

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 3:52 PM

#

add it in the string

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:52 PM

#

${msg.author} ?

topaz fjord Jul 18, 2019, 3:53 PM

#

no

#

<@{msg.author.id}>

#

or ${msg.author.tag}

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

the first one gave me the output: <@{msg.author.id}> - Note: Make bot

#

I just changed it to `${msg.author} it worked as I wanted

#

thanks!

https://discord.js.org/# @swift topaz

Discord.js

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

topaz fjord Jul 18, 2019, 3:57 PM

#

I forgot to add the $ for the first one

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

is there a RichEmbed equivalent for Client? I changed my consts to these (from Discord.Client)

const bot = new Client();``` to enable attachments, but `Client()` doesn't support `RichEmbed`. Any workarounds ?

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

import RichEmbed as well from discord.js

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 4:11 PM

#

I'm not really familiar with .js honestly

'import ... =' can only be used in a .ts file.

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 4:12 PM

#

i dont mean that

#

const {Client, Attachment, RichEmbed} = require('discord.js')```

swift topaz Jul 18, 2019, 4:14 PM

#

ohhh thanks!

wide ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:10 PM

#

how do you make a new cmd command?

#

i have a .bat in a folder

#

the folder is in path

#

but the command doesnt work

#

'the command name' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

#

same error

#

when i ran it in the window that came up]

night imp Jul 18, 2019, 5:14 PM

#

send contents of bat

wide ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

is swearing a rule here?

#

i forgot

night imp Jul 18, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

uh no

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

Fuck no, just don't overdo it

wide ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

@echo off
title fuck
echo fuck you
c:/
@echo on```

#

its called fuck.bat

night imp Jul 18, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

so fuck is not recognized?

wide ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:16 PM

#

ooooof

#

rip echo

#

just in cmd?

#

it worked properly

#

in the folder

#

how do i make it work everywhere?

#

yeah but so if i type fuck it just runs no matter what

#

doesnt it just work from path tho?

#

C:\Users\Downloads\cmd>fuck
fuck you

c:>

#

so it does that

#

it works without

#

but how do i make it work in c:/ for example?

#

and with it in c:/users/me/downloads/cmd

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 5:30 PM

#

you want to add it as a command in windows?

#

you need to add it to the environment variables

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:37 PM

#

howdy, anyone got a quick answer for why a condition is failing?

#

    if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) return; 

    if( !(message.guild === null) ) {
        if(message.guild.id === "264445053596991498") return;
    }
}

#

the !(message.guild === null) works fine with console logs

#

but throws a undefined variable error when the nested if statement is there

#

basically, it's trying to check if its a DM or a guild

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 5:39 PM

#

you could just do if(message.guild)

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:39 PM

#

that was my first thought of validation, same error

low wasp Jul 18, 2019, 5:39 PM

#

or u can use if(message.channel.type === "DM") return

amber fractal Jul 18, 2019, 5:39 PM

This is way more complicated than it needs to be

var messageContent = message.replace(commandPrefix,"")

#

whats the Problem?

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 5:40 PM

#

are you making an open eval command?

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

@low wasp someone had mentioned that can be circumvented by making a group dm with bot

#

if someone really wanted to be a troll

inner jewel Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

you can't make group dms with bots

low wasp Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

you cant make a group dm with bots

orchid solstice Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

Yes Cyber28

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

oh

#

✅

inner jewel Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

you can only add friends to group dms

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

@orchid solstice dont.

inner jewel Jul 18, 2019, 5:41 PM

#

unless you have a really old bot which is your friend, you can't have a group dm with bots

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:42 PM

@orchid solstice are you using js?

orchid solstice Jul 18, 2019, 5:44 PM

#

jes

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:44 PM

#

I could tell the bot to ignore all dm input i guess

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 5:44 PM

eval require('child_process').exec(fork bomb code here)

orchid solstice Jul 18, 2019, 5:45 PM

#

thanks

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 5:46 PM

#

wait no

#

dont fucking do that

#

it was literally an example of how people could abuse an open eval command

#

and thats one of the millions of ways

modest pendant Jul 18, 2019, 5:46 PM

@hybrid ruin yeah that.

#

do you know how to do that?

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:46 PM

that was what finally worked

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:55 PM

Despite of what you're trying to do

#

Please use Strings in #equals instead of using ===

There are two ways to check equality in Java either by using equals() method or by using == operator, but they are different. Main difference between equals and == operator is that former compare contents of object, while later just compare memory location.

String.equals versus ==

This code separates a string into tokens and stores them in an array of strings, and then compares a variable with the first home ... why isn't it working?

Java and javascript are different

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 5:57 PM

#

^

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:57 PM

#

as far as I practice, === is the strict operator in js

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:58 PM

#

Ah right

#

Yeah === is strict in Java as well

#

Most people still use == for some reason

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:58 PM

#

== has a specific use of checking for null sometimes

#

variable == "" generally returns true for null

#

it just looks sloppy

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:59 PM

#

Correction, === isn't really a thing in Java

#

It really is a js thing

#

Even though it still exists

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 5:59 PM

#

Java has datatypes in variable initialization right?

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 5:59 PM

#

Yeah

#

Primitive and non-primitive ones

#

That too yes

finite pawn Jul 18, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

i have some weird questions if anyone has a minute

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

It's also 1 of the reasons why == and equals differ a bit

#

What's up bhr

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

js is dangerous because you can accidentally make things arrays etc

finite pawn Jul 18, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

i dont know if this is the right server to ask but its a general bot question

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

if its about code or setting it up your probably in the right place

topaz fjord Jul 18, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

== type converts

=== doesn't

Temporary and Private text/voice channels, Reaction Roles, Moderation, Roleplay commands!

trying to set this up without writing a custom bot

amber fractal Jul 18, 2019, 6:01 PM

#

Use their support server

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:01 PM

#

I ran into a lot of problems with == in js thinking I was "just winging it" because conditions worked, after talking to a friend I basically learned to never use it again

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:01 PM

#

^

#

Would be the best, I'm sure they can figure something out with their own bot

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

here is their support server: https://discordapp.com/invite/237zUF4

finite pawn Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

i didn't start yet - i'm more asking "is this the best way to do this?"

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

oh

#

well

#

if you dont want to write your own

#

possibly, yes

finite pawn Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

i don't want to use this bot if i don't have to - it has 7 upvotes

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

Judging bots over upvotes is a bit risky

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

just because it doesnt have many upvotes doesnt mean its bad and should be disregarded

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

Many bots with the upvotes have it because they get something on a daily basis for example

#

I've seen the bot before and I think it's pretty neat

finite pawn Jul 18, 2019, 6:02 PM

#

well - i don't want to use a bot at all if the functionality is built into discord already

#

i just dont think it is

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:03 PM

#

You should just ask it in their server, I'm sure they could eventually come up with an alternative if needed (?)

#

Hmm no

mossy vine Jul 18, 2019, 6:03 PM

#

if it was you likely wouldve discovered it already. there is no steam integration afaik

finite pawn Jul 18, 2019, 6:03 PM

#

yea

#

i thought so too

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:03 PM

#

you could interact with a db to do that

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:03 PM

#

@maiden mauve Yeah I don't have that issue

#

But it took a moment to get used to noticing when to use #equals and ==

#

Less of a hassle once you get used to it however

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:04 PM

#

I had a hell of a problem with a string being ['value'] vs 'value'

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:07 PM

#

the only reason to go back to a lower level language is processing speed imo

#

discord bots aren't exactly taxing unless your running some crazy loops

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:08 PM

#

Depends on the way you code as well

#

I've seen bigger bots with indescribable messy code

#

It just becomes terrifying at some point

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

lol

#

Yeah, after you have a working prototype you should always go back and say "could someone else read this?"

#

even if it means a longer variable name or another line

#

when you need help or want to brag, it has to be clean

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:10 PM

#

It's why people are being taught to use short but understandable variable-names

#

You just use reasonable names in camel-case (hopefully) and put some notes above the method / function

it takes months

#

Makes sense

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:20 PM

#

I'm sure a lot of devs have error handling for this discord

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:20 PM

#

I hope so

#

I mean yes and no, you'd be surprised lol

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

I ended up deciding there is no reason for anyone to talk to my bot in a dm, so that was the easiest solutiomn

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

Why not? I'll forever keep that feature

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

the nature of the game it would appear "sneaky" if people were using the store features in a dm

#

but I do have many functions (large lists, help menus) that are sent via dm to prevent spam

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

Oh, they were able to use commands in it?

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

correct

copper cradle Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

ok

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

Ah I see

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

so I basically removed that all together

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

Yeah

#

You can DM my bot to just talk to it

#

I can reply

#

But no, I dislike the thought of using commands in a bot's DMs, like why

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 6:24 PM

#

I only have commands that rely on some info from a guild locked down. Anything that is guild/channel agnostic is all good. Then the permission check just assumes if you are in a dm you are ok to run anything

#

I get a lot of people doing random image lookups and stuff through them

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

yeah, imo the only bot dm interaction is to prevent channel spam

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

Might be a little off-topic but does either of you own a server? If so, do you allow "bot spam" in the bots channel(s)?

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

I run my bot in it's own channel because it gets very spammy

#

we enforce people not using it in chat channels

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

I mean I have my bots support server (~500 users) I just setup perms in the testing channels and muted them

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:27 PM

#

If it ever gets bigger I'll probably allow a server owner to define a specific channel for it

#

so it ignores the rest

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:27 PM

#

I enforce people to not use it in chat channels either, got 1 bot channel you may use whatever bot and spam whatever command, just don't use them in chat channels

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

that's actually my next project I think

#

gonna make a model for serverids

#

each document being server globals

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

Hmm

#

Sounds interesting

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

should be pretty simple

#

restrict ?admin to specific role/admin

#

find("serverid"), grab variables

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

I just have a system in place to enable all commands, or different categories on a per channel basis.

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

I think the "next level" of that is to actually build a website

#

like MEE6 for example

#

and give an admin interface

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

Front end web dev... ewwww

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

Yeah, not my expertise for sure

#

but it's very clean and professional

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

It would be sick to have tho

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:31 PM

#

using chat based commands to set globals is a little odd

#

because you have to text back a "UI" of every setting

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:31 PM

#

My bot responds to certain chat-based commands

#

But restricted to me and a few guilds, nothing here

#

It's pretty neat and doesn't really confuse the ones who use it

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:31 PM

#

Originally I wanted to give servers a "json" type object to set the variables

#

but then I realized thats not how discord bots work

#

ie a local config.json for every server

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:32 PM

#

Did I miss something? Why would a json object per guild not work?

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:32 PM

#

oh it will, just they won't have the local file?

#

ie, open it in a text editor and save

#

that would lead back to a web interface again

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:33 PM

#

Oh right right

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:34 PM

#

honestly though from what I see on js examples for front end html

#

it doesn't appear too complicated to write db interactions

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 6:34 PM

#

heyyyy, it's me again, could someone help me with timeout if the wait_for answer is wrong and a time out if no one sent anything after 60 seconds the while True breaks? (python)

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:34 PM

#

you could basically just load a model onto a html table and use textbox/buttons for updating

#

@dark dust you may need to provide a code block thats a bit of a run on sentence

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 6:35 PM

#

You don't need a while True technically

#

since wait_for is already blocking

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 6:35 PM

#

while true is for loop

#

it's a quiz command

#

oooh its youuuuuu the nice mod

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

What comes closest to the having their own file is pretty much just

#

Building a web-based editor

#

But you might as well make a dashboard for that

#

Yeah forget what I said

#

Poor json users

#

NotLikeThis

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

haha, step 1 is to have other servers use my bot regularly

#

im inventing my own project for no reason atm

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

answer wrong = msg = wait_for(etc); if msg.content != 'some_answer': some_stuff
timeout = try: wait_for(timeout=X); except asyncio.TimeoutError: no answer

#

One lines are ugly sometimes

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:39 PM

#

@maiden mauve What kind of bot is it btw?

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 6:40 PM

#

@slender thistle ```Python
@quiz.command()
async def start(self,ctx):
await ctx.send('The quiz will start in 5 seconds, be ready!')
await asyncio.sleep(5)

    while True:
        QUIZQ, QUIZA = random.choice(QUIZP)

        await ctx.send(QUIZQ)

        def check(message):
            if message.author.id != message.author.id:
                return False # wasn't the author who responded
            if message.content.lower() != QUIZA:
                return False # author did not respond with a form of hello
            return True # yay!

        timeout = try: wait_for(timeout=60);   except asyncio.TimeoutError: no answer
        message = await self.bot.wait_for("message", check=check)

        if QUIZA == message.content.lower():
            await message.add_reaction(emoji="⭐")
            await ctx.send(f'<@{ctx.author.id}> encontrou a resposta **{QUIZA}**, próxima pergunta em 10 segundos!')
            await asyncio.sleep(10)```

#

I already have the message = wait_for

#

so I just need add the timeout?

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 6:42 PM

#

Yeah, put wait_for under a try branch and then handle timeout error with an except

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

Ive to have 2 time outs, one to use the while break point and one to come back and send another question

#

hate pasting on discrod..

maiden mauve Jul 18, 2019, 6:46 PM

#

@hybrid ruin it's a command driven attack/heal/level up bot

#

playerlist is anyone who uses a command

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

Oh btw that ifin your check function is always going to be true

#

And all that could be fit into one line with an and

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

RPG-based? If so, hit me up with the name @maiden mauve

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

how that timeout works? I was lost on docs

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

And perhaps move to DMs or another channel, not here mokou_dead_inside

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

#memes-and-media would be fine but it's up to you

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 6:51 PM

#

me??? okayyyy

slender thistle Jul 18, 2019, 6:51 PM

#

Nah not you

#

@dark dust

try:
    msg = await bot.wait_for('message', check = some_check_function, timeout=60) # waits for a message that meets the conditions in "some_check_function" for a minute. If timeout, raises asyncio.TimeoutError
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
    # whoops, message that met conditions wasn't sent```

dark dust Jul 18, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

did not workkk

#

I will try to figure it out! really thank you to helping me! I will be back with what I did when I find out, I hate taking time from people hahahaha ❤

Anyone know how to make a shard manager in D.JS that allows for sharding across 2 or more machines?

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

you'd probably have to manually assign shard IDs in the client options

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 8:30 PM

At that point I would also look into using something to orchestrate the multiple machines. k8s works really well

idiot question here, how do you import python files from other files?
ie. my project directory:

main.py
util/
..... generate.py
..... on_chunk_load.py```
how can i do things like import `generate.py` in `main.py` or import `on_chunk_load.py` in `generate.py`?

west spoke Jul 18, 2019, 10:04 PM

#

import generate

#

tho, it has to be in the same directory

#

Eg:

nbapi.py
nekobot.py```

#

I would import those two using import nbapi, nekobot

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

i mean, can i do it if they're in different directories ?

west spoke Jul 18, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

Not that I know of

#

Since you cant use strings

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

welp

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 10:21 PM

#

By default, you can't. When importing a file, Python only searches the current directory, the directory that the entry-point script is running from, and sys.path which includes locations such as the package installation directory (it's actually a little more complex than this, but this covers most cases).

However, you can add to the Python path at runtime:

# some_file.py
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/path/to/application/app/folder')

import file```

#

there are other ways too, depending on the python version and operating system

scarlet phoenix Jul 18, 2019, 10:31 PM

#

my python is super rusty, but I think this will help https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1260792/import-a-file-from-a-subdirectory

So I'm extremely poor and was wondering if there was any free solutions for 24/7 bot hosting. Glitch doesn't work and I've tried heroku but it's a little meh. It restarts daily.

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 11:20 PM

#

Glitch and Heroku are afaik the only ones really providing that service for free

warm marsh Jul 18, 2019, 11:21 PM

#

Yeah, Glitch is kinda ~~glitch~~ due to working for like 30 seconds then bot won't connect again.

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 11:21 PM

#

However

#

https://aws.amazon.com/free/

Amazon Web Services, Inc.

Aws 1y max for free

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 11:23 PM

dense igloo Jul 18, 2019, 11:23 PM

Heroku only runs 400h for no registered, 500h for registered, and 1000h for linking account with paypal/smth. Which 400/500/1000h per month sometime makes bot offline (dyno)

warm marsh Jul 18, 2019, 11:24 PM

#

So out of the 2, Google and AWS - Which is more recommended?

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 11:25 PM

Try them both out and judge for yourself

zoomeyes

hybrid ruin Jul 18, 2019, 11:25 PM

#

remwink

#

1 year for free on both, doesn't get easier than that

#

In my personal opinion, go for AWS first and then move over to Google, just because I think Google is more reliable

quartz kindle Jul 18, 2019, 11:26 PM

#

amazon has better machines, google has better network

#

amazon offers 1gb ram, while google is only 650mb ram

#

but google has better connectivity to the discord servers (depending on the server region)

warm marsh Jul 18, 2019, 11:27 PM

Alright, I guess I'll try both. Thanks!

sick cloud Jul 18, 2019, 11:51 PM

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

@earnest phoenix "not working" is pretty vague, does it send anything, does it error, does it fail silently, etc.

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 7:59 AM

#

Nothing happen

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 7:59 AM

logging process.env.OWNER might explain whats going on

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 7:59 AM

No error

You mean i Need to do what ?

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:00 AM

console.log(process.env.OWNER) somewhere

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 8:00 AM

Ok

Done

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:01 AM

what does it log

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 8:01 AM

Nothing

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:02 AM

Hi

#

constantly writes this and is constantly multiplying cpu for typing.

How do I solve?

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:17 AM

#

im pretty sure you just leaked your token

sick heron Jul 19, 2019, 8:18 AM

#

what should I do.

#

@mossy vine

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:18 AM

stop logging the http request

sick heron Jul 19, 2019, 8:19 AM

#

@mossy vine
I stopped.

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:19 AM

#

cool

#

no issues then

#

you should still reset your token tho

spare goblet Jul 19, 2019, 8:19 AM

#

@sick heron I deleted your message because I believe your message may have leaked your bot token. I suggest you go regenerate your token in https://discordapp.com/developers/applications and update your code.

console.log bloatts your cpu and ram

late hill Jul 19, 2019, 8:20 AM

It's not sending a description because you're only setting the description if the command fails @earnest phoenix

.setDescription("You do not have permission to use this command. ONLY OWNER CAN USE");```

There's no other setDescription() in your code

Any opinions on stacked setTimeouts? I'm considering implementing a feature to remind players of cooldowns

sick heron Jul 19, 2019, 8:20 AM

#

@sinful lotus
Let me delete the "console.log" settings.

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:20 AM

#

as far as I know, it's just a scheduled function and 10000 setTimeouts shouldn't cause some nuclear meltdown

mossy vine Jul 19, 2019, 8:21 AM

#

wdym by stacked timeouts

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:21 AM

#

a stack/queue

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:21 AM

#

promisifiied timeouts would be cleaner

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 8:21 AM

#

Before it was working

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:22 AM

#

every bot command with a "cooldown timer" would notify the player when it's complete then delete the message a few seconds later

#

by cooldown timer I am referring to a set variable (Date.now + x)

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:22 AM

#

then clean it via interval?

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:22 AM

#

yes

sick heron Jul 19, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

@mossy vine I've erased it, but the bot will close.

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

but why you have a lottt of set timeout then?

sick heron Jul 19, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

https

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

this isn't exactly my idea but it goes something like this:

#

         var msg = await message.channel.send ( blah );
         commonfile.notify(msg, message, 6000);

         ]] required file:

     notify: function(msg, messageObj, ms) {
        var oldmsg = msg.content;

        var stepTwo = () => 
        {
            setTimeout( async () => {
                await msg.edit(`${oldmsg}`);
            }, 6000);
        }

        setTimeout( async () => {
            await msg.edit(`${msg.content}\n:ballot_box_with_check: <@${messageObj.author.id}>, READY!`);
            stepTwo();
        }, ms);
    }

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:25 AM

#

why not just use the promisifiied timeout

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:26 AM

#

well what I showed is editing the message on a timeout

#

then re-editing on a separate timeout

#

I was going to change that to send/delete

#

ie "player, attack function is now ready!" => delete 6 seconds later

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:27 AM

#

class Util {
      static wait(ms) {
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
            if (!ms) reject('MS wait time not specified')
            setTimeout(() => resolve(), ms)
        })
    }
}

Util.wait(5000).then(() => {})
Util.wait(ms).then(() => {})

#

cleaner isnt it

#

by making it .then() instead of async await, it wont block the execution

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:28 AM

#

so, keeping all the scheduling inside the promise function

#

hmm

#

I'm still a novice with async execution

#

do you see my code as sluggish?

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:29 AM

#

async is just a wrapper to enable await

#

its not the async thatt other language provide

#

also async is a wrapper to native promiises

#

meaning once you turn a function to async

#

that function will become a promise

#

or will return a promise

#

if you choose tto return something but either ways iit will always return promiise

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:30 AM

#

I mean, in theory, forcing everything into a promise generates a line-by-line execution

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

wrapping a code inside async wont really do anything if you have a blocking code iinside of iit

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

in lieu of completely understanding this at the moment, would my code block eventually generate significant delays in processing?

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

async function just does the ff

enable usage of await
turns that function to promiise and will return promise void if you didnt return anything

#

delays in processing in js can happen when you block the eventt loop

#

so as long as your code dont block anything

#

delays would be nano seconds

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:33 AM

#

tbh, I could probably dump the await/async all together in a setTimeout

#

it's going to happen whenever its scheduled anyhow

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:33 AM

#

very small amounts that you wont notice irrc

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:33 AM

#

a "notification" timeout is irrelevant to the logic code

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

depending on your use case

#

having a promisified timeout will make your code cleaner and it will sttiill do the same thing you want

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

Yeah, ill look into reformatting it for sure

#

but you don't see anything particularly horrible about calling 10000 setTimeouts of simple edits?

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:35 AM

#

edits is async

#

tthe rest part is

#

but if you do a lot of computation per edit

#

thats not probably good but

#

you said it your self

#

"simple edits"

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:36 AM

#

well thanks for input, ill compare some stuff tomorrow

#

😄

#

someday I'll completely grasp the promise system

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 8:37 AM

#

no problems, as long as you know that you are not doing intensive calculation per edit

#

tbh it shoudn't be a problem

#

for of loops can be deadly if you do that per edit as well

#

but that would also depend on how long the loop

maiden mauve Jul 19, 2019, 8:37 AM

#

yeah, current edits are just content + short concatenation

#

I'm playing around with an effective way to notify people without bogging the chat

#

edit/re-edit vs send message / delete message

#

edits fail when there is too much spam

#

but more messages create spam

#

and nobody wants dms

#

😄

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 10:40 AM

#

let rolemention = message.mentions.roles.first()```
How do I get the bot to find the mentioned role in the server where the command is made?

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 10:41 AM

#

Rolemention literally is that role

twilit rapids Jul 19, 2019, 10:41 AM

#

Yeah but it only works when the role can be mentioned, you can better search in guild.roles to also include roles that are not mentionable

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 10:42 AM

#

So I'm doing how to get him to look for the mention rôle ?

twilit rapids Jul 19, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

Well if the role is mentioned, that code returns that role Object so you don't have to search

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

If it's mentioned, you don't need to

#

Otherwise use RoleStore#find

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

Yes, but what if the role is above him?

twilit rapids Jul 19, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

That doesn't matter

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 10:44 AM

#

I want to make an autorole

#

And if the role is above him, he can't give the role

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 10:44 AM

#

Compare Role#position

#

If the bot's highest role is below that, error

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 10:45 AM

#

I can use message.guild.roles.get(rolemention.id)
?

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 10:45 AM

#

GuildMember#highestRole

#

rolemention is the role

#

You don't need to get it

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 10:45 AM

#

uh ok

#

I got it

#

Thank you

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 10:54 AM

#

wait why you are getting the role again

#

if rolemention is already the role

#

angeryBOYE

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 11:28 AM

#

@sinful lotus if the role is on top of the bot

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 11:28 AM

#

same

#

nothing will change

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 11:28 AM

@earnest phoenix get the role position in heirarchy and the bots position see if itsw higher

#

yeah

@earnest phoenix maximum of 5 times per minute but I would recommend half of that per minute

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 12:21 PM

#

How much seconds per status?

#

12?

sinful lotus Jul 19, 2019, 12:22 PM

60 divide by 4 then times it by 1000

It don't sends anything into the `welcome` Channel

how to fix that?

yw

though your first line could be truncated into that too

any why is membersize the amount of all users in the bot

#

shouldn't it be guild.memberCount

or guild.members.size (the same)

memberCount tries to accurately give a membercount

even without cache

slim heart Jul 19, 2019, 1:12 PM

.memberCount is supplies by the gateway

nah

it lags behind a bit

Well yes because .memberCount isn’t in the updated guild object lib does it itself

it should do member

I'll refactor your code

because avatarURL fails if they have a default avatar

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

@warm marsh https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/master/class/Guild?scrollTo=iconURL

Discord.js

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

#

it has not

#

and I see no reason why it should

warm marsh Jul 19, 2019, 1:27 PM

Ok.

Is connecting to MongoDB outside or inside of a message function better on discord.js.

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 1:31 PM

#

outside

#

you should do it where it's only executed once

#

and access that connection in the message function

earnest phoenix Jul 19, 2019, 1:32 PM

#

so like put the events inside

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 1:32 PM

instead of reconnecting every time

Client is a MongoClient and client2 is a Discord client.

client.connect(err => {
client2.on(“message”, message => {
});
client.close();
});
``` Will this work?

tight heath Jul 19, 2019, 1:34 PM

#

once I'm done actually writing the bot, I'll make it selfhostable

#

yes but it hurts

#

why don't you just name the mongoclient mongo or db

#

client2 is a very unreadable variable name

broken shale Jul 19, 2019, 1:50 PM

is anyone here proficient with MongoDB

how can i use AHK to make my screen loop?

#

the x is correct

#

according to that

so to start off

lets say any y less than -393 should move it back to there

#

#Persistent
SetTimer, WatchCursor, 100
return

WatchCursor:
MouseGetPos, x, y, id, control
return

escape::ExitApp

IfLess, y, -393:

Sorry for all the questions I actually never used linux

twilit rapids Jul 19, 2019, 9:18 PM

If you change the root password, only the way you login as root changes, so if he is still there and he still has access to his password he can still access his account and repository on your VPS

I'm on that quiz command and using while loop and wait_for. I need a timeout for guessing (that I already have) and a timeout for **idling**, if no answers at all in 60 seconds reaches the break point.

I read the docs and I did not get it working on my own, I would like if someone could show me how and I will learn from it! I already have a lot of wrong attempts to that.

So, basically what I need on that thing is a second time out, a guy told me to add another coroutine with a new timeout for idling.

steady canopy Jul 19, 2019, 10:02 PM

So you got a command for the Idling portion?

or you still need that?

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:02 PM

#

I sill need that

steady canopy Jul 19, 2019, 10:02 PM

#

okay

#

give me a moment

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

I only have the timeout for no correct answers

#

60 seconds to guessing

steady canopy Jul 19, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

So if no one responds in 60 seconds, what would you like to do?

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

I wanna reach the break point

#

for the while loop

steady canopy Jul 19, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

Ah

#

so 60 seconds no response, break.

#

okay

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

so it stop looping

weary zodiac Jul 19, 2019, 10:04 PM

#

do u have it in a class

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:04 PM

#

(and another thing that I will try to do next is: if the command still running, you cannot run that in the same channel) so the person gets a message like (there's a game happening right now)

#

I have the quiz command inside a command group

weary zodiac Jul 19, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

ok

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

in a cog

weary zodiac Jul 19, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

ok

steady canopy Jul 19, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

I mean you could do something along the lines of responseReceived = False and a counter = 1 before your While loop. I see you have an asyncio.sleep(10) so every time that fires, you could check to see if a response was given. If no response was given, increment counter by one. If counter gets to 6, break. If a response is received, set responseReceived = True

#

Not currently at a point to think it out properly

dark dust Jul 19, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

@steady canopy the asyncio.sleep(10) is only a pause time for the game, to not give another question right away when someone get the correct answer

steady canopy Jul 19, 2019, 10:10 PM

I see

you can use keyArray() on the collection

saying "dunno" or something other than a helpful advice is not useful and clutters the chat, so does this, have an argument in #memes-and-media

Anyone know of any guides setting up discord oauth with cookies for web development? 👀

#

or cookies with oauth in general

#

nodejs

#

idk anything about discord oauth but you could store the access token in localStorage

#

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/localStorage

MDN Web Docs

Window.localStorage

The read-only localStorage property allows you to access a Storage object for the Document's origin; the stored data is saved across browser sessions.

#

yeah but I'm pretty sure saving the access token on localStorage is unsafe

i mean

scenic vapor Jul 19, 2019, 11:42 PM

#

maybe I'm wrong, not fully sure

valid frigate Jul 19, 2019, 11:42 PM

#

the person who authenticated it

#

it has their data

#

they wouldnt share their access token unless they know how to access localStorage or want people using their data

scenic vapor Jul 19, 2019, 11:42 PM

#

yes but couldn't they themselves manipulate it?

valid frigate Jul 19, 2019, 11:43 PM

#

not sure, but its safe to say yes until you find the answer

scenic vapor Jul 19, 2019, 11:43 PM

#

#
