Im having an issue where I cant seem to send a request throw request.js to a site. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to catch the error either, can I have help please?

&format=json&from=EDT' + '&to=' + stuff+ '&time=' + stuff, function (error, response, body) {
console.log('body:', body);
      var jsondata = JSON.parse(body);
       var whatiwaslookingfor= new Date(jsondata.toTimestamp*1000)
       console.log(stuff)
       var hours = converteddate.getHours();
       var minutes = "0" + converteddate.getMinutes();
       var finishedproduct = hours + ':' + minutes.substr(-2);
        messagechannel.send(finishedproduct)
})}
module.exports.help = {
  name: "commandName"
}```

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:10 AM

#

whats the error it throws?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:10 AM

#

I cant figurer out how to catch it

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:10 AM

#

whats it say in the console?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:10 AM

#

So it throws ``` throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^

Error: socket hang up

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:11 AM

#

errors being useless as ever okeh

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:11 AM

#

I cant figure out how to catch and handle the error

#

So it doesnt display something useless like that

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:11 AM

#

at a guess put a try catch around the json.parse

#

also iirc request has an option for it to auto format the body to json

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:12 AM

#

the body comes as json

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:13 AM

#

yes so shouldnt have to parse an already json body

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:17 AM

#

well uh

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:17 AM

#

console.log(stuff) is that you covering btw?

#

@gritty bolt got this going so :/ https://oh-mah.ga/q3eae2fc.png

#

assuming you hid the var names above then and not typo's then that code works

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:20 AM

#

weird

#

it just wont

#

yes

#

where stuff is

#

other random variables are that

#

i changed the name of

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:21 AM

#

request('http://api.timezonedb.com/v2.1/convert-time-zone?key=YEET&format=json&from=EDT&to=GMT', function (error, response, body) {
    var jsondata = JSON.parse(body);
    var converteddate= new Date(jsondata.toTimestamp*1000)
    console.log(converteddate)
    var hours = converteddate.getHours();
    var minutes = "0" + converteddate.getMinutes();
    var finishedproduct = hours + ':' + minutes.substr(-2);
    console.log(hours,minutes,finishedproduct)
    console.log(body);
});

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 12:24 AM

#

is this

#

spoon feeling?

#

angeryBOYE

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:25 AM

#

it didnt work

#

and its almost the same code as mine lol

#

anyways though yeah if anyone knows how to fix my issue

#

Thatd be awesome

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:31 AM

#

did u use ur actual key

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:31 AM

#

yes

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:32 AM

#

did u console.log(error)

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:32 AM

#

hold on im trying one last thing

#

yes

#

yup same issue @slim heart

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:36 AM

#

did u console.log(error)

#

cuz i dont see it in ur code

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:36 AM

#

I added it

#

it doesnt pick up anything

#

I added it right below the request line

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:37 AM

#

can u use a normal node-fetch or something

#

to get a more acurate error message

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:37 AM

#

thats what I was using but it did the same thing

#

then this fixed it, then it did this

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:37 AM

#

what was the error

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:37 AM

#

It didnt show one,

#

It'd give me a socket hang error eventually

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:37 AM

#

that makes no sense

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

posted it here a while ago and got told to switch to this

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

u shouldnt get a socket hang up from node-fetch

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

ill try it again

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

not using request()

#

use node-fetch

inner jewel Jul 20, 2019, 12:41 AM

#

socket hang up is a network error

#

it can happen with literally anything that uses the network

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:43 AM

#

oh i see

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:43 AM

#

Would I still be able to use my function from before so I dont have to rewrite it?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:43 AM

#

that code sent above worked fine so its not that section of code being the issue

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:43 AM

#

well then what in the world is it then

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

its a network issue apparently sbss

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

^

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

and how do I solve that

slim heart Jul 20, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

get better internet

#

or internet at all

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

this is running

#

in an aws warehouse lol

#

id hope it'd be connected to the internet

Error: socket hang up · Issue #2047 · request/request

Hi, i know that such issues were created before, but there was a little bit different description. I tried to perform simple request: send form data. But when i use request module it always throw &...

#

oh actually are you on vultr?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:46 AM

#

no im on ec2

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:46 AM

#

either way check out that thread its relevant your exact issue

the linked comment was one method

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:46 AM

#

t2.nano on a lunix

#

Cool

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:46 AM

#

k thats should be fine then

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:47 AM

#

Alright thanks guys

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:47 AM

#

ik vultr has some screwup somtimes on the default dns

#

also why use request when native is easy https://oh-mah.ga/lyn9mY4T.png

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:49 AM

#

I also used to use that

#

Did the same thing

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:49 AM

#

http.get({
  hostname: 'localhost',
  port: 80,
  path: '/',
}, (res) => {
  // Do stuff with response
});

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:49 AM

#

And everyone here yelled at me lol

#

because request is supposed to be easier

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:49 AM

#

from cli can you ping the timezone domain from the machine?

#

maybe its just me prefering native cause it started getting stupid the amount of dep updating had to do so started converting everything to native

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:51 AM

#

and the timezone domain I can get from here

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:52 AM

#

but ping from the vm?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:53 AM

#

not sure how I do it from the ubuntu machine

#

im still kinda getting used to it

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:53 AM

#

ping api.timezonedb.com

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:53 AM

#

oh its literally just ping?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:53 AM

#

yeah 🙃

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:54 AM

#

30 ms

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:54 AM

#

so its replying at least

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:54 AM

#

yeah, but I dont know why its getting hung up now

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:54 AM

#

see if the url
https://crossorigin.me/http://api.timezonedb.com/v2.1/convert-time-zone?key=YEET&format=json&from=EDT&to=GMT
works

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:55 AM

#

with my own key of course

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:55 AM

#

cross origin should "middleman" the request

#

assuming that works then uh your getting into an odd one

#

https://crossorigin.me if you wanna see what the site is

#

it just adds CORS headers onto reqs

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:56 AM

#

unknown host when I ping their sample request

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:56 AM

#

ping the url above or what do you mean by sample?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:56 AM

#

tried pinging both yours and the sample request they provide on their website

#

both returned unknown

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:57 AM

#

oh ok unknown host is better than socket drop

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:57 AM

#

but it still means it cant find the host

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:58 AM

#

can you ping google still?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:58 AM

#

yup

#

17ms

#

steady

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:58 AM

#

weird

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 12:59 AM

#

hmm

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 12:59 AM

#

ok i found somthing
whats your current network setting

#

the aws ec2 network setting

#

it might be blocking some outbound rules

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:00 AM

#

my VPC?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:01 AM

#

its around the vpc its been a while since looked at that area

#

iirc its in the side panel of the ec2 page

#

network rule groups or somthing

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:01 AM

#

inbound rules

#

dont allow anything but my ip

#

but then why cant my regular pc's version of this code run it?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:01 AM

#

outbound should allow all

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:01 AM

#

mhm

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:02 AM

#

wait what you get domain not found on your local as well ;-;

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:02 AM

#

yup

#

it socket hung on the local

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:02 AM

#

but the ping works?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:03 AM

#

yes

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:03 AM

#

GWvictoriaNotLikeBlob

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:03 AM

#

ping will ping the api gateway

#

and google

#

etc

#

but it cant find the exact url and my pc gets socket hung

#

its a headache and im pretty bad at this sort of stuff tbh im still learning it

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:04 AM

#

can you run the get in its own file to test it?

#

like isolate your bot out of the picture

#

jsut to test

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:08 AM

#

worked on my regular machine

#

so itll work on the other

#

its something in the bot then thats getting it hung up

#

@shy rose

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:09 AM

#

aye

#

guessing the messagechannel.send(finishedproduct) as thats the only line that interacts with the bot

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:16 AM

#

@shy rose it wont even print my url to the console

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:17 AM

#

?

#

context?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:17 AM

#

I did a console.log(insert the url with the varibles here);

#

and it did absolutely nothing

#

It stopped after logging the unix its cinverting

#

converting*

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:19 AM

#

then threw its error?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:19 AM

#

no

#

its before that

#

or well

#

it doesnt do that and then a few seconds after throws the error

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:20 AM

#

so the console logs print

then a few seconds later it errors?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:20 AM

#

it logs the final unix

#

then stops

#

and then throws the error

#

a few seconds later

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:21 AM

#

the final unix is the last console log you have in the callback right?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:21 AM

#

then I have a new variable with the url

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:21 AM

#

how bout screen cap the relevant code and draw a line where it stops

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:23 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:24 AM

#

that to should have an equal after it

#

also whats clipped off the end?

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:25 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

sorry we're having a likle

#

error epidemic here

#

this has been happening for the past 45 minutes

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:25 AM

#

that looks legal :/

#

as for url you need the = after the to

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:26 AM

#

why?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:26 AM

#

&to=

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:26 AM

#

yeah theres an = after the to

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:26 AM

#

not in scrn cap above

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:26 AM

#

oh

#

thats the log one

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:27 AM

#

ah

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:27 AM

#

so thank goodness lol

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:27 AM

#

thats really odd

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:27 AM

#

ikr

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:27 AM

#

the latency would imply it made it past that line and the error was from a request resolving

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:28 AM

#

just to make sure

#

heres the error

#

one last time

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:28 AM

#

try wrapping that in a try catch and logging e

#

if didnt do that before

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:28 AM

#

wait

#

I might be wrapping the .catch wrong

#

thats something I do a lot

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:29 AM

#

.catch is on promise

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:29 AM

#

      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 1:30 AM

#

can you send your code as is again not changing the var names

#

or dm if youd rather keep the completed thing private

gritty bolt Jul 20, 2019, 1:32 AM

#

@earnest phoenix could you send your code

#

have you tried using message.guild

#

is how I do it

#

hmm

#

what do you use to define the message sent?

#

ok

#

ohhhhhhhhhh

#

you're in python

#

sorry 😛

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 1:46 AM

#

anybody know an api that can suggest the main colour used in an image?

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 1:48 AM

#

wat

frank dust Jul 20, 2019, 1:51 AM

#

you could try https://sightengine.com/image-quality-main-colors

Sightengine

Determine Image Quality and Dominant Colors with our API

API to detect image bluriness, brightness, exposure and main colors

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 2:00 AM

#

Quick question, do you NEED to add cooldowns to commands?

inner jewel Jul 20, 2019, 2:00 AM

#

no

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 2:00 AM

#

really suggested to do so though

#

But like people in my discord like to use a lot of commands at once

#

In different channels

#

Should I worry about this?

inner jewel Jul 20, 2019, 2:01 AM

#

no need

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 2:01 AM

#

Alright thanks a lot

inner jewel Jul 20, 2019, 2:01 AM

unless you want to force them to add a delay

What do you guys use for making a Discord Music Bot in Javascript?

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 3:38 AM

opusscript

#

dont use garbagelink

abstract crow Jul 20, 2019, 3:38 AM

Yeah but I mean like ytdl-core, or etc

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 3:39 AM

#

oh ye ytdl-core pretty good

abstract crow Jul 20, 2019, 3:39 AM

#

I heard though that you can only make searches via a URL?

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 3:39 AM

#

you can use keywords too

abstract crow Jul 20, 2019, 3:39 AM

#

Is that what most bots use?

#

Also I heard it didn't give the names and stuff of the song which was odd but idk

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 3:41 AM

#

idk where you're getting this info from

#

I need to fix my cmd 1 sec

inner jewel Jul 20, 2019, 3:49 AM

~~i'd use andesite if i ever made a bot in js~~

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 3:50 AM

finally got it working

#

havent done music in forever

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/h0ffn_648.png

I can give you an example of what it returns

anyone got some heroku quick trouble shoots?

I appear to have deployed my project correctly

but it's saying it can't load anything from a folder "commands"

#

yet the heroku server has the folder and files

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 4:19 AM

#

@scenic vapor what do you need?

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:24 AM

#

@sick cloud hey! I wanted to incorporate a way so that I don't have to keep authenticating everytime on login. I'm not sure how to approach it

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 4:24 AM

#

what are you using to store the logged in user?

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:24 AM

#

I think it's currently session based

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 4:24 AM

#

if you're using something like express and express-session, choose a store that isn't in-memory and set the expiry to 1 week

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:25 AM

#

Yeah I'm using express-session

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 4:25 AM

#

alright hold up a second

#

do you use a database of sorts?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:25 AM

#

make sure youve got a db backend

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:25 AM

#

how do I make sure the user is logged in?

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 4:26 AM

#

depends on what you're using

#

as in, if you're sending it to the front end

#

i set my res.locals.user as the session

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:27 AM

#

Hm okay

#

That stores it on the clients side?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:27 AM

#

fyi https://www.npmjs.com/package/passport-discord gives a demo of it

npm

passport-discord

Passport strategy for authentication with Discord (discordapp.com)

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 4:27 AM

#

couldnt you use local storage?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:27 AM

#

yes but no

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:28 AM

#

It does give a demo and even a example but I don't think it works as not re-authenticating

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:28 AM

#

you can get them to keep a session token but wouldnt wouldnt want them holding the main body you would want a db for that

#

you only re authenticate once the session has expired

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:29 AM

#

yeah but a part in /login or whatever you have has to be set to make sure to send you to the callback not discord auth

#

that's the part I'm strugglin with

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:29 AM

#

this occurs when you decide to dump the main body from your db BUT you must hold onto the refresh token such that next time you can reauth without needing to make them go through the screen

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:29 AM

#

for some reason it keeps messing up although it should work

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:29 AM

#

you need to go through discord auth the first time in order to get the auth token

#

then future assuming you hold the session token and the refresh token then you can reconnect/refresh via that token

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:30 AM

#

Hmm okay

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:31 AM

the refresh is just so you dont need to store all the session data forever

after x amount of time eg a day or a week you can dump the bulk of the session data just holding onto users login session token and the refresh (that you got from the auth)

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:31 AM

#

and I'd do that in the back end?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:32 AM

#

yup

#

all the user ever gets is a cookie with a session id

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:33 AM

#

I need to get back to my laptop to see the code again

#

On the GItHub, this is shown:

var DiscordStrategy = require('passport-discord').Strategy;
 
passport.use(new DiscordStrategy({
    clientID: 'id',
    clientSecret: 'secret',
    callbackURL: 'callbackURL'
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, cb) {
    if (err)
        return done(err);
 
    User.findOrCreate({ discordId: profile.id }, function(err, user) {
        return cb(err, user);
    });
}));

Is User.findOrCreate supposed to be the DB?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:36 AM

#

only just realized what that was now tbh confused me months back

its its mongoose which is mongodb

#

you dont have to use mongo

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:37 AM

#

I usually use mongo

#

just wanted to make sure

#

Thank you

#

😃

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:37 AM

#

wish they made that clearer cause it really stumped me when i first was trying to use it

#

at the time had never used mongoose use it almost daily now

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:38 AM

#

ohhh rip lol

#

mongoose can be odd

#

my wifi is terrible jesus christ

#

hotel wifi trash spits

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:39 AM

#

mongoose takes some adjusting to for sure

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:39 AM

#

yeahh

#

Did you need to make models for this?

#

like a User's Model to go off?

#

discord send messages please?

#

that took a while

#

@shy rose I know this is far-fetched but would you mind talking in DM's and helping me with my code?

shy rose Jul 20, 2019, 4:43 AM

#

i at the time went wtf is this is just used mysql

#

but yeah sure

scenic vapor Jul 20, 2019, 4:43 AM

#

Thanks!

inner jewel Jul 20, 2019, 5:56 AM

because embed.setFooter(Page${page} of Pages ${pages.length}) isn't valid js

#

also user.id = message.author.id; and user.od = message.author.id; are both wrong

Anyone got experience with PyQT here?

A tiny bit @pale marsh

#

What are you attempting to do?

pale marsh Jul 20, 2019, 6:33 AM

#

@steady canopy just trying to decide whether to use pyqt4 or 5

#

Pros and cons, etc

steady canopy Jul 20, 2019, 6:35 AM

#

Well 4 is no longer supported

#

So 5 would probably be the best option.

pale marsh Jul 20, 2019, 6:38 AM

#

Alright sounds fair

steady canopy Jul 20, 2019, 6:38 AM

#

Yeah, no new releases will be made and it's strongly recommended to use PyQT5 for all new development.

pale marsh Jul 20, 2019, 6:39 AM

#

What worries me is that there's tons of articles on 4. Way more than 5

steady canopy Jul 20, 2019, 6:39 AM

#

If you give it a bit of time, I'm sure 5 will catch up. But yeah, that tends to be the issue with newer releases. I remember when it was hard finding information on python3

Nah

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:37 AM

hello, can someone help me with a code? I want to make an order to have permission only the owner of the server, that is, if I go to several servers, only the owner has access, that is to move access, I think you understand what I mean

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 9:38 AM

#

Because you need some basic programming knowledge to code a bot

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:38 AM

#

Yes, do you expect me not knowing how to help, though saying this

#

@robust quiver Which programming language are you planning to use? And how much of it do you know?

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

@robust quiver id recommend learning python, it’s very beginners friendly

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

Or Ruby

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

And it has a good api for what you want

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

Ruby's even simpler

robust quiver Jul 20, 2019, 9:40 AM

I just use turbo pascal and i think it doesn't help in that case @earnest phoenix

@earnest phoenix can you invite me to discord js ?

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 9:40 AM

@halcyon nymph what do you mean with that?

mossy vine Jul 20, 2019, 9:41 AM

honestly, what language you use completely depends on your use case and preference

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:41 AM

@onyx summit as In I like it

@halcyon nymph what fucking python api are you talking bout?

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:41 AM

#

an example: .say (message), I do not want all members to be able, just the owner. The one who has the crown, the one who made the server, I think you understand

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 9:41 AM

#

@onyx summit discord.py

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 9:41 AM

#

It's not an API lmao

#

@earnest phoenix yes, guilds have owners, but you still didn't mention what language and library

guild.owner is a thing

guild.owner is a User object

nvm i'm just retarded

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 9:54 AM

#

I think I found it

#

You are saving role

#

I doubt that sqlite is able to save a complex object with functions

#

At least I never seen something like dat

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 9:55 AM

#

It is quick.db, it only saves strings and numbers afaik

#

xD

#

I need to find a new autorole

command

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 9:56 AM

Good luck with that if you are unable to modify the current code

Oh, wait, i forgot, quick.db can save objects

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 9:56 AM

Yes, but not that

I still have a question, how can I make multiple files in a single project? I use glitch

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 9:59 AM

#

But quick.db is not able to store a role, it uses JSON.stringify, and that destroys functions, as well as circular references

#

idk but on glitch you just create a new file?

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 10:00 AM

#

I want to create more, I do not want everything in server.js, because after it's too full

#

each command has its file

onyx summit Jul 20, 2019, 10:01 AM

#

you can easily use module.exports

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 10:01 AM

#

make simple, with new, or I have to do in server.js one thing, let's say that in file X is that command

#

Array

wheat jolt Jul 20, 2019, 10:19 AM

#

db.get('nots[0]')

#

Instead

#

If you wanna get an value

#

Element**

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 10:19 AM

#

null :/

wheat jolt Jul 20, 2019, 10:19 AM

Then the array is empty

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 10:21 AM

#

let veri = { not: not, sahip: message.author.username };
await db.push(`nots.${msg.author.id}`, veri)

#

this false?

wheat jolt Jul 20, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

Try to use db.set instead

#

So you won't get your json in an array element

So I've got a quick question, Using pm2 is there a way to stop it watching sqlite-journal?

quartz kindle Jul 20, 2019, 10:35 AM

#

--ignore-watch

#

Iirc

warm marsh Jul 20, 2019, 10:35 AM

#

I've tried that but when I set something in sqlite it restarts.

quartz kindle Jul 20, 2019, 10:36 AM

#

How did you set it?

#

You can also try using the pm2 environment file

#

You can set an ignore watch array in there

warm marsh Jul 20, 2019, 10:38 AM

#

Yeah, But there doesn't actually seem to be a file called sqlite-journal anywhere

#

I guess once I've finished coding will disable watch so doesn't restart constantly.

quartz kindle Jul 20, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

Journal files are only there while sqlite is running

#

After the connection is closed, it should be merged with the db and deleted afaik

warm marsh Jul 20, 2019, 10:44 AM

#

Alright, Thanks!

@stray garnet 2 mistakes:

You're supposed to pass your filter and the additional options (time in your case) to the ReactionCollector like this createReactionCollector(filter, options) You're currently executing your filter and passing the options to the filter, which is not what you're looking for
You've initialized page as 1 and both of your collect events will do nothing if the page is 1

I'd also highly suggest not naming the bots reply msg as that's very similar to the users message which you called message.
You could just name it reply or something, would be easier for yourself and people reviewing your code to see the difference.

will closing the MongoClient after the message event breaks the connection? I am using Node.js MongoDB.

topaz fjord Jul 20, 2019, 1:43 PM

#

yes

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 2:02 PM

#

May i ask, which C websocket library is considered the best?

#

Hey guys, just wondering if theirs a line of code for python to delete all messages in a specific channel automatically that don't contain an image?

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 2:16 PM

#

you can't delete all messages in any library

#

just fetch the last 100 or so, filter by contains image or something and delete each

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

Oh yes I know, but like auto delete as they get posted

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

listen to the message event then?

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

It's for a community server I'm in, theirs image only channels (well we want them to be) but people always try add text there

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

How do you get previous messages in python?

#

for a server/channel

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

Alright, the command for this is working fine, but after the command is run it is returning an Unknown message error

#

Here is the code:

#

if(!message.member.hasPermission('MANAGE_MESSAGES') && !this.client.isOwner(message.author)) return message.reply('You must be at Moderator to use this command!')
if(!message.guild.me.hasPermission('MANAGE_MESSAGES')) return message.reply('**I don\'t have permission to use this command! Please give me the `MANAGE_MESSAGES` permission!**')


if(!args) return message.channel.send('Please specify the number of messages to delete.');
if(isNaN(args)) return message.channel.send(`**${message.author}, Please specify the number of messages you want to delete as a number.**`)
    message.delete();
message.channel.bulkDelete(args)
    .then(messages =>message.channel.send(`**${message.author}, Deleted \`${messages.size}\` messages!**`)).then(msg => msg.delete(2000));

#

How is the ?purge command an unkown message

#

:/

woven zealot Jul 20, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

I would like to point you to the point in your code when you do message.delete() and then try and access it afterwards.

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

Ah

#

But if message.delete() is not included, the amount of messages to delete specified in the arguments would be incorrect

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

so this sorta makes no sense

📎 unknown.png

#

node-gyp is installed yet it errors

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

So where should the message.delete() go, or should I just remove it altogether?

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:41 PM

#

I don't know what's wrong because, I don't get error messages in the console but it doesn't output in the channel

        const infoembed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
        .setTitle('Jigglypuff')
        .setColor(0xfca2dd)
        .setThumbnail(bot.user.avatarURL)
        .addField('Description', 'A music bot.')
        msg.channel.send(infoembed);
    break;```

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:41 PM

#

Is this javascript?

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:41 PM

#

yep

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:41 PM

#

Ok

#

Why do you have the case: 'info' and the break;

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

because that's switch/case

#

it's an alternative to if/else

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

Ahh

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

yes I put it in a switch case

#

my other bot works

#

that above bot's case 'greet' works but 'info' doesn't

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:43 PM

#

For your message event, are you using:

client.on('message', message => {
//code here
});
//OR
client.on('message', msg => {
//code here
});

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:44 PM

#

yeah it's bot.on because const bot = new Discord.Client();

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:44 PM

#

oh yeah

#

maybe try changing your colour to a hex value inside a string?

#

e.g #00FFFF (Aqua)

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

@swift topaz you need a ; at the end of your last add field

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

oh it works now. thanks!

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

Ok

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

it's actually weird

#

because my other bot doesn't need its .setColor to be string, nor the last field to have a semi-colon

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

Best to put it as a string tho

woven zealot Jul 20, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

Sorry I just got back to this,

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

I know python doesn’t recquire a string

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

 case 'help':
            const embedcommands = new RichEmbed()
            .setTitle("*Bot Commands*")
            .setColor(0xf00000)
            .setThumbnail(bot.user.avatarURL)
            .addField('About', '`about` or `ab`')
            .addField('Info', '`info` or `in`')
            .addField('Officers', '`officers` **|** Type: `a!help officers` for more info.')
            .addField('Bot Information', '`botinfo`')
            .addField('Clear Message History', '`delete <number of lines to delete>` **|** Requires certain roles to use this command.')
            .addField('Note', '`note <phrase or sentence>`')
            msg.channel.send(embedcommands);

this is my other bot's

woven zealot Jul 20, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

The secret is

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

the hex color isn't string and the last field doesn't have semi colon

woven zealot Jul 20, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

bulkDelete(args + 1)

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

You should really try to make a command handler

#

It will make your bot faster, and you won't have a several thousand line index.js file

#

Starts to get annoying to edit code with so many lines :/

#

IDE's stuff up and crap

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:49 PM

#

i removed the ' ' from the hex and it worked fine now since it has two fields now

#

command handler how? functions?

halcyon nymph Jul 20, 2019, 2:52 PM

#

@swift topaz (I’m not a js programmer), but couldn’t you save the embed as a constant and then whenever someone uses the help command send them the embed rather than creating a new one from scratch

swift topaz Jul 20, 2019, 2:53 PM

#

ohhhh you're right I'll do that thanks!

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:00 PM

#

Hey guys, can you let me know what I'm doing wrong?

if (message.channel = "X") if message.content.attachments > 0: message.delete()

#

I want it so if the message in the channel was sent and it's text and not an image to be deleted

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:04 PM

#

aight

#

Quite a few things wrong with this code.

#

First of all, if you're comparing with a string use === and not =

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:05 PM

#

I think I was referencing code that potentially is older than rewrite

#

In addition to that I'm still finding my grounds and learning

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:05 PM

#

And whether or the content of a message is not determined by a number

#

That's a boolean

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:05 PM

#

checking .channel will give you a false always because it's an object/class

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

Instead, find the channel

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

why not check the id

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

let i = message.guild.channels.find(ch => ch.name === "x")
if(message.channel === i){
}

#

you can do that as well

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

channel.id === '272764566411149314'

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

wait a minute

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

far easier and less resource intensive

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

no you would have to get the channel

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

Yes I can do the ID I use X as a fill

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

A channels name can't include a capital letter

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

what's your point

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

just saying

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:08 PM

#

if (message.channel.id === '272764566411149314' && message.attachments.size >= 1) message.delete();```
condensed into one line, fixed and nice :^)

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:09 PM

#

Thankyou alot for that, I'll give that a go

When looking at attachments you added size? Is that so if it has an attachment of any size to keep and if not to delete?

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:09 PM

#

no...

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:09 PM

#

no, that's to see if the amount of attachments is >=

#

greater than or equal to 1

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:10 PM

#

^

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:10 PM

#

Oh I see, I'm doing the opposite haha

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:10 PM

#

attachments is a collection and collections have a size

#

just like arrays have a length

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:10 PM

#

If attachment, keep, if not attachment, delete

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

The devs of discord.js could easily make that so instead of comparing with a number it can be with a boolean - like detecting if the message includes an attachment.
Or is that already a thing and I haven't seen it on the docs somehow

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

but that's just a useless addition

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

xd

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

why have something like hasAttachments when you can literally just check the size..

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

Did I mention I am using python? 😂

#

And not js

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

what

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

maybe you should of said that

earnest phoenix Jul 20, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

I apologize 😂

#

I thought I did

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

the code doesn't look very different to js code xd

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

if channel.id == 272764566411149314:
    if somethingtocheckforattachments == True:
        delete()

i don't use discord.py or know much about it

#

but that should work i guess lol

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:14 PM

#

xd

#

the only python i have every done is like hello world really

#

Is it just my bot or does .playOpusStream sound like it is being played at 10 million ms

#

like my bot ping is 23ms

sick cloud Jul 20, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

what's your rest ping

#

it's most likely your code

nocturne hazel Jul 20, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

maybe

#

because .playStream outputs 0 sound

#

or I have installed a package incorrectly

twilit rapids Jul 20, 2019, 3:19 PM

So, in my reponse variable goes a message that does not meet the requirements

Actually in it goes the first message the bot reads

Is = an assignment or comparison

mossy vine Jul 20, 2019, 8:54 PM

#

in what language

#

in python its assignment

amber fractal Jul 20, 2019, 9:07 PM

#

in js it's also an assignment

#

== and === are comparison

somber verge Jul 20, 2019, 9:10 PM

is in python is comparison too

here i wanna my bot response when someone tag me when i m offline i stopped here i didn't know how to set it

sick cloud Jul 21, 2019, 1:57 AM

#

oid doesn't have a presence

#

its a user not a guild member

#

get the user from a guild

#

// oid now has presence.status```

gray epoch Jul 21, 2019, 2:01 AM

#

i try it it says
guild is not defined i change it to

message.guild.members.fetch(userID)

but it says
TypeError: message.guild.members.fetch is not a function

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:02 AM

#

What you had was fine

#

But

#

You’re comparing a tag to an id

#

m => m.user.tag === botSettings.ownerID

#

This will return undefined everytime

inner jewel Jul 21, 2019, 2:04 AM

#

false*

#

unless ownerID is name#discrim

#

which is not recommended

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:04 AM

#

Ah true

inner jewel Jul 21, 2019, 2:04 AM

#

perm checks should be IDs, not tags

gray epoch Jul 21, 2019, 2:04 AM

#

ownerid is an id

loud salmon Jul 21, 2019, 2:04 AM

i set ownerID as Spider is that wrong thinking_derp

yes

ofcourse not your SPidor

it should be 'Natan#1337'

okey what should i do now

scenic vapor Jul 21, 2019, 2:05 AM

#

live

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:06 AM

#

Use m.user.id since it’s an id that you want to find

#

Given botSettings.ownerID is an id bloblul

gray epoch Jul 21, 2019, 2:07 AM

#

message.guild.members.fetch(m => m.user.id === botSettings.ownerID)
like this

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:08 AM

#

I don’t believe fetch requires a function

#

Just use your id

#

message.guild.members.fetch(botSettings.ownerID)

#

Then use oid.presence.status

sick cloud Jul 21, 2019, 2:09 AM

#

if you wanna use a function, use find

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:09 AM

#

^

sick cloud Jul 21, 2019, 2:09 AM

#

.find(m => m.user.id === botSettings.ownerID)

gray epoch Jul 21, 2019, 2:09 AM

i fix it thank u guys
its message.guild.members.find(m => m.user.id === botSerrings.ownerID)

how can i check if someone tag me in his message

west spoke Jul 21, 2019, 2:19 AM

#

If content is (whatever your Id is)

#

I'm too tired to do actual code rn so you will have to deal with psuedocode

amber fractal Jul 21, 2019, 2:19 AM

#

well that isnt the best way

#

because you can post an id without mentioning

west spoke Jul 21, 2019, 2:19 AM

Like, actually about to fall asleep

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/MessageMentions?scrollTo=members

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.

#

check if the collection contains your id

hm

#

so a bot with skeleton permissions can edit its own message, but cannot delete without manage messages

#

but editting to "" would be a delete

#

right?

#

📎 unknown.png

#

almost...

inner jewel Jul 21, 2019, 2:55 AM

you can always delete your own messages

how do i get data about how many guilds/users a WebSocketShard has in js

literally nothing i can find in master docs >:(

#

or to better word it what's the alternative to broadcastEval for internal sharding

quartz kindle Jul 21, 2019, 9:25 AM

guilds have shard and shardID properties

#

loop over them and arrange them by shard id

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 10:35 AM

how can I make it so the MongoClient checks if the user has an data in the database. I tried the one below but it didn’t work.

if(!mongo.db(“main”).collection(“users”).find({“_id”: message.author.id})){
mongo.db(“main”).collection(“users”).insert({“_id”: message.author.id, “hello”:”world”});
}

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 10:36 AM

#

isnt _id assigned by mongodb?

#

huh you can overwrite that

#

oh, theres a syntax error in there

#

@earnest phoenix you forgot a ( after .find

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 10:42 AM

#

oh that is not there is the original code i rewrote it

#

it still doesn’t work tho

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 10:42 AM

#

whats your current code then

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

now it is

#

i pasted it

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

try not using _id

#

also what library are you using for mongodb

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

mongodb

#

not mongoose

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 10:44 AM

#

are you getting any errors?

#

also are there any documents being added to the collection

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 10:55 AM

#

No
No

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 10:56 AM

#

are you sure you are connected to the database

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 10:57 AM

#

yes

#

it even shows on the site

#

nvm i figured it out

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 11:05 AM

#

what was the issue?

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 11:05 AM

they shouldn’t be there

oh

earnest phoenix Jul 21, 2019, 12:25 PM

mongo.db(“main”).collection(“users”).findOne({_id: {$eq: message.author.id}},{holding: 1});

I am trying to make it display the holding variable of the user’s data. The only error I got is unexpected token and I don’t know how to fix it.

topaz fjord Jul 21, 2019, 1:16 PM

#

Why are you searching by _id

#

That's an object id which mongo creates on document insertion

mossy vine Jul 21, 2019, 1:17 PM

#

^

topaz fjord Jul 21, 2019, 1:17 PM

#

search by something else

#

Like a userID

slender thistle Jul 21, 2019, 1:23 PM

_id is overridable

What language and library @earnest phoenix

tidal oar Jul 21, 2019, 2:12 PM

#

Who is known about mongoose?

#

Oh i see theres already a mongoose topic

#

So i was editing my data, which is inside of a array

database.array[1].changethis = 100

Datatype is number
Anyways whenever i change it i can see its changed i tested everythinf but when it comes to saving

database.save()

It doesnt works. Basically no errors, nothing but it doesnt saves the change i made. I check the database and its the same. Data is still the same and not changed.
Can someone help me out?

how do I add a thumbnail: bot.user.avatarURL parameter in the module.exports.run

opaque eagle Jul 21, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

Whattt

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

uhhh

#

    msg.channel.send({embed:{
        title: 'Jigglypuff!',
        description: 'Puff!',
        color: 0xfca2dd,
        thumbnail: 'bot.user.avatarURL'
    }})
}```

#

the thumbnail part won't work

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:36 PM

#

Define won’t work

#

Errors?

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:36 PM

#

no errors

#

the thumbnail just won't pop up in the embed that is sent

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:37 PM

#

Oh wait

#

Cause you have it as a string

#

Remove the '

#

Around it

west spoke Jul 21, 2019, 2:37 PM

#

^

#

That's literally like saying bot.AvatarUrl

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:37 PM

#

nahh still

west spoke Jul 21, 2019, 2:37 PM

#

In chat

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:37 PM

#

no thumbnail

#

that was what I first did

#

the stringless

west spoke Jul 21, 2019, 2:38 PM

#

Bot.avatarurl?

#

Without user?

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:38 PM

#

No it has to be on the user object

#

It should work

#

Try displayAvatarURL instead

#

Cause avatarURL sometimes returns null

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:39 PM

#

(node:13516) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: ReferenceError: displayAvatarURL is not defined

#

without the string

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:39 PM

#

slonk

#

What exactly did you put when I suggested that

#

Like show me your updated code

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:40 PM

#

    msg.channel.send({embed:{
        title: 'Jigglypuff!',
        description: 'Puff!',
        color: 0xfca2dd,
        thumbnail: displayAvatarURL
    }});
}```

#

or is it displayAvatarURL: true?

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:40 PM

#

No, you have to use bot.user.displayAvatarURL

#

displayAvatarURL is a property of the user object

#

Not a standalone thing

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:41 PM

#

still doesn't work

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:41 PM

#

Oh wait

#

It’s cause you’re setting it up wrong

woven zealot Jul 21, 2019, 2:42 PM

thumbnail: { url: url }

hollow saddle Jul 21, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

Yeah ^

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

what're the exact parameter that should be in url?

woven zealot Jul 21, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

still the same

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

{url : bot.user.avatarURL} ?

woven zealot Jul 21, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

thumbnail: { url: bot.user.displayAvatarURL }

#

Yep

Then code without one, Just use the docs.

unique nimbus Jul 21, 2019, 3:43 PM

#

@swift topaz if you are in js you can use lavalink

#

It's also supported in python

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 3:44 PM

#

Does the library also support Youtube links for audio downloading?

unique nimbus Jul 21, 2019, 3:44 PM

#

Yes

#

You can also use youtube-dl

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 3:45 PM

#

which would be better to use? the standalone lavalink or the discord.js-lavalink?

unique nimbus Jul 21, 2019, 3:45 PM

#

Lavalink is originally based in js I think

swift topaz Jul 21, 2019, 3:46 PM

so importing either one is fine then?

Yes

warm marsh Jul 21, 2019, 3:54 PM

#

Can I ask why use lavalink over ytdl?

#

Or is it just personal preference?

unique nimbus Jul 21, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

It's preferance I think

quartz kindle Jul 21, 2019, 3:57 PM

#

i've never used any of them since none of my bots use audio, but from what i understood, lavalink acts as a server broadcasting audio streams, which means it will run in a separate process than djs, thus not influencing the discord connection, using less memory/cpu because it has less overhead, and it can run on a different machine

#

those are big deals for big bots

warm marsh Jul 21, 2019, 3:58 PM

Alright, If I add audio with my bot I guess I'll give it a try.
