How would you prevent this if / else if hell
if (x < 3) return a;
else if (x < 5) return b;
else if (x < 10) return c;
else if (x < 15) return d;

Does anyone know how I can align text to the right side of a picture in HTML and CSS?
hybrid ruin
@abstract crow This might come in handy: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_image_text.asp
I guess that's exactly what you're looking for
abstract crow
Well not in the picture but like outside of it
hybrid ruin
Oh
mossy vine
use a table?
abstract crow
I thought you didn't need to
inner jewel
@late hill ```js
things = [
{value: 3, ret: a},
{value: 5, ret: b},
{value: 10, ret: c},
{value: 15, ret: d},
];
...
for(const {value, ret} of things) {
if(x < value) {
return ret;
}
}```
mossy vine
theres probably a way without tables
hybrid ruin
Did you look into the float attribute?
abstract crow
I I Text goes here
inner jewel
you can also make massive switches if that's your thing
otherwise it's if-else or something like that
or a massive lookup table if you don't care about memory
hybrid ruin
If you have
img {
float: left;
}
p {
float: right;
}```And use these attributes, the image will remain left, text will stick to the right side
hybrid ruin
I don't think so
abstract crow
How does it know then what to float against? Like how does it know not to float to the left of something else?
hybrid ruin
Because you tell it to float to the right? π
The margins and divs are all up to you
It'd make things a lot better obviously
abstract crow
How can I center it though?
Wait I did float left and right and then did some padding, is that correct?
hybrid ruin
Should be fine
amber cobalt
hybrid ruin
You can use padding into any direction and could eventually use 50% to make sure it's always in the middle
padding-top on 50% should work
amber cobalt
oh wat, the java home is still jre-9
hybrid ruin
abstract crow
Would anyone happen to know why float right does this?
Puts the facebook like icon to the top left of the navbar instead of the bottom
opaque eagle
Ik this conversation ended a while ago
but about that if/else hell
that's why languages that are actually good have match statements and stuff for that
The only good JS solution I can think of are nested ternaries, but they get complicated quickly...
function foo(x) {
return x < 3 ? a : x < 5 ? b : x < 10 ? c : d;
}```yeah but he wanted a "better" solution
mossy vine
i find if return way more readable
opaque eagle
i assumed he meant "shorter", since that was already pretty readable
valid frigate
i think for simplicity's sake you should just use if/else over multiple ternary operators
since x ? y : z is not restricted to a simple equation but that's what makes it easier to read
also vinnie your like button is floating to the right because you probably put it inside the same div which is floating right
abstract crow
Yeah that was it lol. But now there is this invisible space between the image and the navbar. Using inspect element there was no margin/padding there so idk.

Discord.js bots intensive on CPU or ram?
sick cloud
discord.js caches everything and uses a lot of memory
cpu usage depends on what you do
earnest phoenix
def cpu
try running a bot on an rpi you'll see it jumps from 1% to 50%
i mean you can do it on any computer
and see a spike
probably
idk
inner jewel
https://javascript.is-bad.com/8M8tA2k.png mine stays at around that
spikes when starting/etc are to be expected
what you should look at is the value after starting
tulip solar
thanks 
covert tartan
make sure if youre using d.js, that youre using the optional libs as they make it use significantly less cpu
you can optimize ram usage a lot too in d.js (clientoptions + clearing the cache for stuff you dont use)
tulip solar
thank youuuu
restive night
may i ask about discord.js?
let say i have 5 chance to answer question, but when i do loop with for it send 5 message at the same time.
how to send it one by one with loop after answer message is collected?

Cry jumping in with the 40000 IQ
earnest phoenix
they asked a question with no detail, i provided an answer with no detail 
hybrid ruin
Ah. I don't code in js so I can help you with the steps but nothing code-specific
You could start off by storing the shop items in a database of some sort. Make sure you give them an easy name as well, so you can search by both name and ID perhaps
Then you just want to make a command which displays all that (for loop) and depending on how you want them to be able to buy items, you can identify it by name or ID
slender thistle
@jolly nova Do you have an error handler in your code

Get the timestamp for when the giveaway should be ended, check once every minute or so if that time stamp has passed, if not return and check again in a minute. If it is then edit the message

Does anyone know how I can setup express.js so that I can gave my directories like this
main_folder(website)
server.js, pages, images, etc.
And then when I type in url.com/page it will go to the pages directory and find that page name?
quartz kindle
you want to serve static files or you want to serve an express-controlled page/ejs/etc?
abstract crow
static files
quartz kindle
abstract crow
I tried that already
And it doesn't seem to work
I tried ./
app.use(express.static('./'))
app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, './pages'));
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
app.get('/', function (reg, res) {
})
use a folder
abstract crow
I don't want to though
That is why I am having the issues. I don't want to have github_repo_folder > public > files
sick cloud
express seems to shit itself with the root
abstract crow
Oooo ok
sick cloud
i wouldn't recommend using the root anyways
abstract crow
So then if I had public, then what would I do for the pages folder?
abstract crow
Right but what do I do for my code
If everything but the server.js is in the public folder, andI have a pages folder inside of the public folder
app.use(express.static('./')) app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, './pages'));
sick cloud
remove the . from the 2nd line
abstract crow
Ok so just /pages
sick cloud
the folder you want static files to be served from
abstract crow
Ooo ok. So public in my case
sick cloud
yeah
abstract crow
And the pages folder will work being inside of the public folder?

maiden mauve
Hmm, trying to solve a user input/object refactoring problem
objects = {
object1: {
aliases: ['o1', 'obj1'],
test: () => {
console.log('Object 1 found!');
}
},
object2: {
aliases: ['o2', 'obj2'],
test: () => {
console.log('Object 2 found!');
}
},
};
let userInput = "o1";
// input.test() is the goal if it exists.
I was looking at the "default" bot command handling
and thought I could mimic the concept with an object
I like the idea because it handles a variety of garbage inputs by simply not being apart of a collection/array
maiden mauve
for(let key in objects) {
if(objects[key] === userInput || objects[key].aliases.includes(userInput) )
return objects[key].test();
}
the aliases part of that works fine, but the "object name" does not, sort of making the object name pointless
π€
given that this whole experiment is to make code look prettier (a structure of objects rather than a bunch of functions from a switch tree)
I'm not sure im satisfied with that
inner jewel
you want to compare the key, not the object

halcyon nymph
Is there anyway to use on_message and the commands.Bot extension
slender thistle
Wdym
twilit rapids
And what about your bot token
trail dagger
token?
halcyon nymph
on_message if defined anywhere means commands.Bot doesn't work
twilit rapids
That message was for Oswald
twilit rapids
True
halcyon nymph
I even updated to the the newest version and still nothing
slender thistle
Sigh
twilit rapids
Anyway, this is all python stuff bye
slender thistle
Do you know bot.process_commands, Allexx?
halcyon nymph
no
slender thistle
Right
halcyon nymph
I'm new to all of it
slender thistle
bot.process_commands is a function that accepts a Message object as its only argument
and it's a coroutine
halcyon nymph
so instead of on_message use process_commands
slender thistle
Uhhh
trail dagger
no
slender thistle
I never said it was an event
slender thistle
It's just a function
halcyon nymph
Okay
twilit rapids
Big brain shiv
twilit rapids
No coding language is easy
slender thistle
Okay but without the will to learn or simple knowledge of coding things it's not easy
halcyon nymph
I never said i was unwilling to learn
slender thistle
Either way, if you are sure you need on_message, use bot.process_commands in it
slender thistle
You can share some parts of your code ya know
halcyon nymph
Its ok
Btw, how do I have multiple or customizable prefixes with this setup
or is it just not possible?
slender thistle
Depends on how you set it up
if you give command_prefix argument in commands.Bot an iterable, it's multiple prefixes
halcyon nymph
@slender thistle
import discord
import random
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio
import time
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "s/")
@bot.command(pass_context=True)

return
if message.content.lower() == '!test':
await message.channel.send('test')
await bot.process_commands(message)
Exluding my token on purpose
slender thistle
So far so good but pass_context is unnecessary
halcyon nymph
yeah, but i was told it's just standard
slender thistle
in older versions yes
halcyon nymph
to avoid confusion it's nice to always have it
halcyon nymph
well either way, is it possible to have multiple prefixes?
or is it restricted to just the one?
slender thistle
Give command_prefix an iterable
slender thistle
Literally any object you can iterate through iirc
Let's dive into docs while we are at it
halcyon nymph
is there a way of making it so multiple commands call the same function in a way that isn't long-winded?
halcyon nymph
I know how to in javascript, but more specifically python and using the commands.Bot extension
slender thistle
What would the func do
halcyon nymph
in the same way you'd call a function, say !test. but instead of !test you could also do !t and that function would hypothetically do the exact same thing as !test
slender thistle
There's aliases arg in command deco
slender thistle
probably any iterable as well but I usually slap a list in

Sharding is the process of breaking up something into multiple instances
As to ease the load from one instance
A shard for a discord bot will handle a certain amount of guilds, while other shards will handle seperate guilds

how can i poperly paginate through discord guilds
its always been a confusing thing with the before and after params like what am i meant to do
heavy spade
can i have some help
so i want to make a partner command
like this !partner (server name) (description) (link)
idk how to do that
quartz kindle
which language/library?
quartz kindle
well, define how you want to delimit the fields
either set a delimiter like [server name] [description] [link] and use content.split() for example
or split it into multiple messages and use channel.awaitMessages() (assuming you're using discord.js)
heavy spade
I am using discord.js
So I want to put it in a embed format
What would that look like?
I am new to this donβt know everything
quartz kindle
first you need to get the data you need and split it into the appropriate fields
then to send it, you can use the richEmbed builder
heavy spade
Thatβs my first embed
So how would I do it so addfield and set description
To be filled out by the user
@quartz kindle
quartz kindle
use message
assuming that embed you made is being triggered by a user, his message will be available in message.content
you read message.content and extract information that the user wrote from there
heavy spade
Ok
maiden mauve
it's amazing how useful a second console is for testing interactions
just running a node compiler on a blank js
quartz kindle
i just run a clone of my bot in nw.js
maiden mauve
your little test screenshots encouraged me
quartz kindle
full access to the discord.js api through chrome's dev tools
maiden mauve
pretty lightweight testing platform
but it gets the job done to save other peoples time for questions
quartz kindle
well to test simple stuff like that i just use the browser xD
hit f12 and type away
maiden mauve
I've been on a refactor spree lately
inner jewel
btw you can add @echo off at the beginning of that rn.cmd file
heavy spade
When I type message.content
maiden mauve
seeing how many "neutral returns" I can get away with
inner jewel
so it doesn't write to the cmd window the commands it's running
heavy spade
It doesnβt come up with content
maiden mauve
ah ty again
quartz kindle
show what you did
maiden mauve
filled out by user, where would the input come from?
quartz kindle
you know you can just copy/paste the code, no need to send a picture of it...
and even then, you could take a print screen
heavy spade
module.exports = {
name: 'embed',
description: 'embed',
execute(message, args) {
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setTitle('User Information')
.addField('Player Name', message.author.username)
.addField('Embed Version', 'version 1.0.0')
.addField('Current Server', message.guild.name)
.addField('Partner info', message.content, true)
.setColor(0xF1C40F)
.setThumbnail(message.author.avatarURL);
message.channel.send(embed);
}
};
maiden mauve
prior to setting the embed code you can define variables
then use them in the ${var} formation in embed
maiden mauve
where do you want the users message to go?
quartz kindle
can you show the command you do and the response by your bot ?
maiden mauve
ok
heavy spade
for partner command
maiden mauve
so you gotta define those variables from the message
either by making args an array or otherwise
heavy spade
module.exports = {
name: 'embed',
description: 'embed',
execute(message, args) {
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
message.channel.send(embed);
}
};
waht would i put there
maiden mauve
and then you can just concatenate them in your embed text
heavy spade
after i defined the vars
maiden mauve
just testing discord a bit hehe
heavy spade
lol
heavy spade
oo
maiden mauve
anyhow, in js you can use ` ` to embed variables like i did
to avoid sloppy concatenation strings
heavy spade
ok
maiden mauve
so if the users message.content is "args", chances are "args" is an array of strings?
heavy spade
i am new as hell to coding so can you full out the command then go through what you did?
i am learning and been through tones of sights
but i am new to embeds
maiden mauve
haha the most useful thing you can do is get immediate output
test things in the smallest environment possible
heavy spade
hmm
maiden mauve
for example, find out exactly what is in the variables you are passing
console.log(message)
console.log(args)
you'd be surprised how big a message object is
π
heavy spade
hu
so far i have this
module.exports = {
name: 'embed',
description: 'embed',
execute(message, args) {
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setTitle(args[0])
.setTitle(Your custom title: ${args[0]})
message.channel.send(embed);
}
};
ooooo
so if i do like
.setdesription(Your custom description: ${args[0]}
that means the user can set the des
maiden mauve
`Your custom title: ${args[0]}`; === "Your custom title " + args[0];
does that make sense?
its just a concatenation shortcut
heavy spade
like !p discordbotlist description then link
heavy spade
module.exports = {
name: 'embed',
description: 'embed',
execute(message, args) {
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setTitle(Your custom title: ${args[0]})
message.channel.send(embed);
}
};
like that
maiden mauve
yeah that would put the first non-spaced string in title
you can have as many ".addField"s as you like
heavy spade
then i can type .setdescription(your custom description: ${args[1]}
maiden mauve
but the Title, etc is only 1 per
yes
it's all how you want to chop up the "args" variable
maiden mauve
.setDescription(`Your custom description: ${args[1]}`);
maiden mauve
yup.
maiden mauve
yeah, once you get a desirable result you'll want to re-read my link
it explains the rich embed in depth
the more you learn how it works the less stressful the smallest change is π
Also remember it's just a variable until you send it
heavy spade
module.exports = {
name: 'embed',
description: 'embed',
execute(message, args) {
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setTitle(Your custom title: ${args[0]})
.setDescription(Your custom description: ${args[1]})
.addField(Your custom link: ${args[2]})
message.channel.send(embed);
}
};
maiden mauve
test it out π
maiden mauve
if your new to programming js is a very forgiving language
make use of the console.log()
trial and error is very simple
if you are running bot through node/command prompt
adding " cmd /k " in the .cmd will keep the prompt open
so you can read why it crashed
opaque eagle
The forgiveness part is really true
inner jewel
you can just use pause
maiden mauve
5 characters vs 6 characters π
pause waits for enter key right?
I don't think I've looked up a dos command list in 10 years
speaking of forgiving, I'm still patting myself on the back for subtracting "false" from an integer
I have a variety of "Spells" that return true, false, or damage done
therefore,
if(!spell.cast()) catches all false returns
inner jewel
ideally you'd have a single type of return
maiden mauve
and playerhp - spell.cast() doesn't throw an error π
yeah, I just was looking for a single statement to work
const spellReturn = await spell.cast(player,message,target);
if(!spellReturn) // spell.cast returns false (text error sent to discord)
return;
target.currentHP -= spellReturn;
hey.. i need help with something really quick
completely disregard the app[worker]
thats hosting stuffs
but im trying to access the kills
by doing
well to access this array, i do data.data.stats
data.data.stats.metadata[1].value
would that work?
maiden mauve
everything being called metadata is confusing me
if your searching for something, you need to have some way to find it right?

shy turret
how do you create a server invite in a server a bot is in using server id? discord.js
hollow saddle
guild.createInvite iirc
grim aspen
shy turret
k
shy turret
var serverid = "0000000000"
var server = client.guilds.get(serverid).id;
server.channel.createInvite()
.then(invite => message.channel.send(invite.code))
.catch(console.error);
am i right?
hollow saddle
channel would be undefined
hollow saddle
That's depreciated
shy turret
oh opps
hollow saddle
It seems that you're getting the invite for the current server so can't you just do message.channel.createInvite?
earnest phoenix
yo
hollow saddle
Or is it a specific server
shy turret
specific server by id
hollow saddle
Ah alright
hollow saddle
could use guild.channels.first() to get the first channel in the channel collection
So it would be const channel = client.guilds.get('id').channels.first()
and then channel.createInvite()
shy turret
var serverid = "0000000000"
var server = client.guilds.get(serverid).id;
var channel = client.guilds.get(serverid).channels.first()
server.channel.createInvite()
.then(invite => message.channel.send(invite.code))
.catch(console.error);
^ so this? ^
hollow saddle
channel would still be undefined
shy turret
why?
hollow saddle
you don;t need your server variable anywhere
Because if you use channel in that sense, it trys to get a channel from the guild object which doesn;t exist
shy turret
im kinda confused. what's the difference between "var variable = stuff" and just "variable = stuff"
nothing?
var serverid = "0000000000"
var channel = client.guilds.get(serverid).channels.first()
channel.createInvite()
.then(invite => message.channel.send(invite.code))
.catch(console.error);
Well in that sense, var vaiable = stuff would be defining a variable and setting its value to stuff but variable = stuff would be nothing because you did not define it unless it was previously defined via let or var
shy turret
gonna test
shy turret
yah i saw and i realized ".get"
earnest phoenix
Help mi

so i have that but when i type !p dadas then a space then type something it doesnt work
it only types one work
how could i fix that
valid frigate
i'm considering using lavalink for djs, is it worth it?
what im noticing is that lavalink seems to have some positives and negatives but i don't undestand them clearly yet
slim heart
W-
heavy spade
how can i make is so the user that is typing the description can use more than one word
slim heart
Join the rest of the args
inner jewel
resource usage should be way lower with lavalink/andesite (shameless self ad 
) than with ffmpeg subprocesses
valid frigate
afaik a ton of great music bots use a lavalink fork
inner jewel
and you can offload music to other servers instead of having it on a single server
heavy spade
so make the args that same
inner jewel
the whole reason lavalink exists is to do that
heavy spade
like args[2] then args[2]
valid frigate
also, are there any downsides vs just using the stream dispatcher
heavy spade
like
slim heart
Splice the triggering args/args u donβt want then do .join
inner jewel
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
heavy spade
(Your custom link: ${args[2]}) then (Your custom description: ${args[2]})
valid frigate
lol probably just extra configuration
inner jewel
i've always used lavaplayer directly
valid frigate
ah fuck isnt it for java
heavy spade
i am new to java
valid frigate
oh yeah thats why i said i was dumb
it's 11:20 at night rn
well thanks for uh giving me the benefit list
heavy spade
module.exports = {
name: 'p',
description: 'p',
execute(message, args) {
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const p = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.setColor(0xec0d0d)
.setTitle(Your custom title: ${args[0]})
.setDescription(Your custom description: ${args[2]})
.addField(Your custom link: ${args[2]})
message.channel.send(p);
}
};
how can i get .setDescription(Your custom description: ${args[2]})
to let the user send more than 1 message
like a full description not just like 1 work
word
slim heart
If you donβt know what that means you need to go off and figure it out yourself
You need to learn

ok so basically

Well that's a template literal that's missing 2 things

MongoDB Command raised an exception: TypeError: 'Collection' object is not iterable
The collection should be 100% right
slender thistle
Some code would help
trail dagger
for x in mydb['Channels']:
if x['Id'] == channel.id:
return True
return False
What do you think mydb['Channels'] is
trail dagger
trail dagger
yes i know it is
slender thistle
But you don't iterate through a collection
You iterate through documents in a collection
trail dagger
I dont even know what iterate means, english isnt my first language
I found out what it means
slender thistle
Iteration is the repetition of a process in order to generate a (possibly unbounded) sequence of outcomes.
So basically, it looks like collection.find is what you need

hi, how to find a category d.js ?
i do this :

been running into some network bottlenecks (discord.py) when attempting to use minikube to run the bot locally (both with kvm and on host os). anyone run into this as well? it appears that message events are not dispatched in a timely matter, but the function calls run properly
had similar problems when using just a vm but assumed it was due to disk issues (old 5400rpm hdd, performance was poor generally); current machine is on a fast ssd and still running into the same problems -- another assumption was network issues but it appears to run fine outside of the container environment on the host os

I swear you've posted this before..
If gold doesn't exist you're creating newGold but continue to work with gold (which still won't exist), that's your error
Other than that
Just as I remember saying previously
You're mixing userId and userID
I also question if you have a reason for the gold to have it's own model
To me, it seems like it would fit very well on your Account model, but maybe you have a reason for not doing this π€·
(There's also the inconsistent usage of ; and a random global variable grrr)
