I am not using a command handler ๐
#development
earnest blade
grim aspen
like this: client.on("message", etc
well that explains much
the command won't work without a command handler
earnest blade
But this one does
if(msg.startsWith(prefix + "invite")){ message.channel.send(INVITE LINK HERE: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id= 586587344082305029&permissions=537159744&scope=bot`);`
grim aspen
and msg and message don't work together
earnest blade
i have both, and they both work
If i change that one command im having issue with to this: https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/vVdDiuHkT5HjdoowXWMFHA
Itll work
But when i add in the custom emoji
it doesnt work
earnest phoenix
client.emojis.get("EMOJI ID");
@earnest blade whats not working about it? any errors?
earnest blade
The bot just doesnt respond
earnest phoenix
show your full code? remember to hide your token
grim aspen
@earnest phoenix he doesn't have a command handler at all
earnest blade
basicially, i have a custom emoji. when i send that custom emoji, i want the bot to send a message thats just that custom emoji
earnest phoenix
your bot needs to be in the same server as the emoji
earnest blade
it is
earnest phoenix
to be able to send it
the emoji id is not the guild id, did you obtain it by escaping the emoji or
grim aspen
grim aspen
that's not how it works
earnest phoenix
every emoji has it's own id
grim aspen
msg and message don't work together
grim aspen
it has to be used with a command handler
earnest phoenix
obtain the format by escaping the emoji
const { Client } = require("discord.js");
const client = new Client();
client.on("ready", () => console.log("The bot has logged in successfully!"));
client.on("message", message => {
const msg = message.content.toLowerCase();
if (msg.startsWith("oof")) message.channel.send(client.emojis.get("602154064649912349")));
});
client.login("TOKEN");
@earnest blade you're welcome
grim aspen
->
grim aspen
same idea different emojis
earnest blade
@earnest phoenix Yea, i have the ID
grim aspen
oh that would explain why it works
grim aspen
msg is defined
earnest blade
The second does
yes @grim aspen
In that link, the first command wont work
but the second does
How do i make it detect the custom emoji
@earnest phoenix ?
earnest blade
can you put that in begginer coder's language xD
earnest phoenix
you have specific emojis, you don't need regex for it at all
earnest blade
I just need it to find a custom emoji in the message content
earnest phoenix
startsWith returns whether the string starts with the string you specify
you're probably looking for includes
can you try this:
const emoji = client.emojis.get("602154064649912349");
if(msg.startsWith(emoji)) {
message.channel.send(emoji);
}
i havent tested this so might not work
please stop
grim aspen
spoonfeeding again
earnest phoenix
you're looking for includes which checks if the message content includes a specified string @earnest blade
lusty dew
No spoon feeding
earnest blade
@earnest phoenix would it be msg.Includes?
earnest phoenix
you'd do it on the content property
msg itself is a Message object
wait no
i have no idea what your code looks like so i'm not sure what is msg exactly
earnest blade
but it would still work before with startsWith if i made it detect something else besides a custom emoji
let msg = message.content.toLowerCase()
earnest phoenix
ah yeah, you can then just use msg.includes(...)
startsWith checks if the string begins with something, includes checks if the string includes something
based on that, make a decision
earnest blade
But i wanted it to check if the emoji nwas at the beggining
so thats not the issue
the issue is that the bot wont detect the custom emoji
earnest phoenix
i see your issue, you're converting everything to lowercase
but you're checking for an emoji with an uppercase name
earnest blade
ooohhhhhh
maiden mauve
hmm
sick cloud
so do any of you know how to stop this https://i.imgur.com/v2wkWi6.gifv (the scrolling)
maiden mauve
what would be a good line to draw between a casual for(let a in b) loop, versus array.map?

How many repos do you guys all have? https://moosecorp.xyz/i/human-badge-8238.png
I made a game in C++ and Python lol
amber fractal
Whats with the 2 blurred private ones 
abstract crow
One is a bot that I am hosting for someone
The other is bot a guy and I are working on, not sure if they want me to show it
amber fractal
I have 24 repos
abstract crow
Dang
amber fractal
Nearly all private
abstract crow
lol
Well I wish I could keep a repo public and then privatize certain branches
Like dev should be private, but master can be public
Or I can make it private, but users can still access to put issues in type of thing
abstract crow
Yeah but what about when I want a repo to be public so people could submit issues, but I have my code public then so
amber fractal
Yeah, thats what I mean, the dev branch could just be on your local device
Master could be on git
abstract crow
Right, but what about repos where I don't want any code
I just want them to see the timeline and submit issues
amber fractal
Dont commit code
abstract crow
Well that sucks
inner jewel
or just create two repositories
amber fractal
https://github.com/DiscordBotList/issues dbl uses it for issues
earnest phoenix
if you use github just for issue tracking just use
trello or jira
i've also seen a few irl friends use nTask
opaque eagle
GitLab lets you hide certain parts of a repo with permissions, which is neat
You can let anyone see the issues and stuff of a repo but lock down the code to just contributors
Lots of permissions config
earnest phoenix
so in my script
<script>
window.onload = () => {
const fragment = new URLSearchParams(window.location.hash.slice(1));
if (fragment.has("access_token")) {
const accessToken = fragment.get("access_token");
const tokenType = fragment.get("token_type");
fetch('https://discordapp.com/api/users/@me', {
headers: {
authorization: `${tokenType} ${accessToken}`
}
}).then(res => res.json())
.then(response => {
const { username, discriminator, id } = response;
alert(`Hello, ${username}#${discriminator} (${id})!`);
}).catch(console.error);
} else {
window.location.href = "https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=585149040035889187&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fpibot.pw%2Fdashboard&response_type=token&scope=identify";
}
}
</script>
How would I go about accessing my Discord.Client()?
you don't
earnest phoenix
stop exposing sensitive information to the frontend
topaz fjord
Your supposed to have a back end that handles the oauth
never do it all in the front end
Unless you want to get into trouble with users/discord
@earnest phoenix ^^^^^^
earnest phoenix
i mean, i do have a backend, but idk how i would go about like for example, saving stuff to a database, or using client for things.
the only thing I can think of is using a function on the front end which runs a backend file and returns the result, but idk how I'd get the client in that backend file since it wasnt passed from the front end, if you get what i mean
topaz fjord
what are you trying to do
earnest phoenix
make an api
topaz fjord
^
earnest phoenix
you have no need for a database for oauth
what you have right now is literally asking for web vulnerability
follow these practices https://dzone.com/articles/security-best-practices-for-managing-api-access-to
prime cliff
Doing some nice features for my bot for 20k guilds how does this look also i need to add volume and shuffle icons probably at the bottom center
zealous veldt
prime cliff
thx i have been getting into some nice image gen stuff that is just the template but it's easy enough for me to dynamically edit the text and pics
topaz fjord
@prime cliff is this for ur website
sonic frost
noice
prime cliff
Nope it will be the nowplay command
topaz fjord
oh
topaz fjord
I was gonna do something like that for my website
earnest phoenix
whats the point of showing controls if you can't use them
high lava
Also, it works for checking status as well
You can have them highlighted for shuffle and repeat etc
prime cliff
Yup
topaz fjord
I was gonna send all the data from my bot via a websocket
Which would be like 356 requests per song but meh
On average
slender thistle
Jay, are you sure you're in the right channel?
earnest phoenix
@topaz fjord i used to have a little experimental system like that
topaz fjord
used to
earnest phoenix
yes
high lava
Oh woops
earnest phoenix
i abandoned the project
topaz fjord
oh
earnest phoenix
i had a separate audio server that acted like a websocket server aswell, it was basically glorified and faster lavalink
prime cliff
I don't really have repeat for my bot because that would just waste resources sitting in a vc with noone, yes i can check for no users in vc but that's would be bad for users that just update Discord or crash
topaz fjord
wait then this means the react component will have to update an average of 356 times a song
topaz fjord
prime cliff
earnest phoenix
you don't need to send ws data on the song being elapsed every second, you just need to provide the current playing state, current time of the song and the length of the song
you can then have a calculated progress bar
earnest phoenix
var arr = [โappleโ, โorangeโ, โswordโ, โbagโ];
``` Can someone tell me how do I remove orange from the array?splice should do the trick
earnest phoenix
example?
earnest phoenix
ok thanks
amber fractal
You can also use indexOf to get the index of a specific item in an array
valid frigate
lol who uses indexOf
stone dust
whats your preference friend
amber fractal
@valid frigate is there another way you can get the index of an item in an array if you dont already know it's index?
valid frigate
probably not
amber fractal
Essentially that would simplify to
arr.splice(arr.indexOf(someInput), 1)
quiet flame
Yo trying to auto react with my bot..
How do I make it react to images only
client.on('message', message => {
if (Attachment) {
message.react('heart');
}
});
copper cradle
This has to be asynchronous
let image = message.attachments.size > 0 ? await message.attachments.array()[0].url : ' ';
if (image) message.react('the emoji')
and also
@quiet flame here you go
quiet flame
What's happening here
quartz kindle
attachments doesnt return a promise afaik
modest pendant
Oof
quartz kindle
no need for await
modest pendant
quartz kindle
@quiet flame do you know what is a ternary operator?
quiet flame
No sir
quartz kindle
so snails showed you a ternary operator way of checking if the message contains an attachment, and if it does, to check for the attachment's url if it exists
thats basically whats happening
quiet flame
I didnt get why we need the url
quartz kindle
the attachment might not be an image
might be a file uploaded from the computer for example
quiet flame
oh yes
quartz kindle
although a better way would be to check for its width, not its url
also .array()[0] can be replaced with .first()
quiet flame
I was thinking on similar lines..width or height
quartz kindle
yes

earnest phoenix
is it just an accepted fact that every bot has the same help command ? and you will be spammed by a wall every time you want help with a specific bot ?
unique nimbus
I mean I make my bot have a pingable prefix so no other bot responds
earnest phoenix
oh true i guess
as of now i just use the "!" prefix and hope my command names are unique enough
earnest phoenix
that's the thing though, it's only the admins that read your command description when they invite the bot
how the users supposed to know ?
unique nimbus
Well they don't unless they want to test your bot
earnest phoenix
that's why i thought using the most popular prefix would help them "guess the correct commands"
unique nimbus
normally we get spammers who do "!help" 500 times
earnest phoenix
lol
mossy vine
so why not just have a list of commands, and when you run it without arguments it will give more information about the command
earnest phoenix
like without the prefix ?
mossy vine
..no
is your problem the prefix or that bots respond with a wall of text, describing what every command does including the smallest things
i dont understand lol
earnest phoenix
is it just an accepted fact that every bot has the same help command ?
then it developed into using different prefixes
mossy vine
what do you mean by "same help command"
earnest phoenix
"!help"
lusty dew
Why not just have customizable prefixes per server
earnest phoenix
i guess that would work
lusty dew
A lot of bots do it
earnest phoenix
hmm wonder how intuitive it is to get command info by pinging the bot
mossy vine
just add "ping me for help" in the status
mossy vine
yea
earnest phoenix
that's a good idea
think i'll go with that
btw, on the website, do you have to enable anything to show how many servers your bot is in ?
i know mine is in a couple just from reading the logs, but the website still says N/A
do you have to reach a threshold?

ok
opaque eagle
If there's too much Js there, you can import from a file

For example: message.author.avatarURL
mossy vine
so why not just send the avatar url back
earnest phoenix
I want it to be in a custom scenario
Or back ground
Go to #commands
I will show you
mossy vine
then you need to use a library that can do image editing
mossy vine
@grim aspen with what? you probably know more about image manipulation than i do
by itself it cannot
earnest phoenix
How about HTML?
dusky mist
Nono
broken shale
use canvas
earnest phoenix
oK

HTML is for another thing xD

How to take all roles from a Person, and give it them back with one command?
opaque eagle
I smell API abuse
opaque eagle
Even if it's for the most noble of reasons, API abuse is API abuse
stray garnet
xD
prisma bobcat
wouldn't it be easier to just have a muted role that supersedes the rest and add/remove that
stray garnet
ik
prisma bobcat
yea also how we do it on another server i'm in, and have a channel only they can see
so they get quarantined basically
stray garnet
but when they have other roles with SENR_MESSAGES perms they still can write
@prisma bobcat hmm thats a good idea
prisma bobcat
idk a lot about how roles work they're kinda confusing tbh, but wouldn't a mute role at the top of the list with no send permissions overrule any role under it with send permissions?
prisma bobcat
otherwise for the og idea, just get all the role id from member.roles, then iterate them to remove them an store them somewhere, and on unmute add them back
stray garnet
hmmm
opaque eagle
you can remove multiple roles with a single api request
don't iterate through them
that's called api abuse
prisma bobcat
o neat, didn't know that
my bot doesn't mess w/ any roles really so haven't had to mess with em
how do you promote/advertise/whatever your bot to get people to use it? besides just sticking it on bot list
opaque eagle
message.member.removeRoles() // stable d.js``````js
message.member.roles.remove() // master d.js``````js
client.editGuildMember() // Eris```get ur friends to add them i guess
im friends with the owners of some medium-to-large servers... i ask them to add, they add, others in the server see, they add too
word of mouth is gr8
prisma bobcat
i'm mod on a decent-sized server (3k something members) ima add it to, but that's about it
opaque eagle
yeah that should be enough tbh
stray garnet
message.member.removeRoles() Take all Roles?
opaque eagle
check docs
prisma bobcat
and i gotta test it out a bit more on smaller servers first cause this bot came from hacked-together version made for that server, so gotta make sure feature/stability parity so i don't screw em lol

kindred epoch
hey guys whats the best database for a discord bot
I saw rethinkdb is pretty clean and fast, is that good?
amber fractal
There is no "best database"
It depends on multiple things
How big the app is, how fast it will need to read and write data, how many requests will it need to handle/second and more
kindred epoch
Well just an easy-to-use one, doesnt really need to be that fast and I guess it shouldnt corrupt easily (json) and can store many items without breaking :p
scarlet phoenix
Well if its small, and you want simplicity you could do something like mongo. Although I would reccomend MySQL or Postgres since they are relational and allow you to define Key constraints. Which IMO is super useful
I use MySQL over postgres but have heard many good things about postgres
kindred epoch
@scarlet phoenix I heard mysql has some dodgy syntax though
scarlet phoenix
Its just your standard SQL
Some people dont care for SQL but personally I dont have any issues with it
slender thistle
It comes to preferences
earnest phoenix
my advice; sqlite for small scale bots, postgresql for large scale bots
gray epoch
i need some help.
i created a ban command in my bot.. and when someone use the command to ban a member who has a highter role than the bot i wanna the bot reply with a message that say the error.. and the question is how to use role.position here
it always says position of undefined

ok so, in Java
I have a base class and a bunch of other classes which all extend said class.
I have some objects of those classes stored in a Map where I map the name to the base class (Map<String, MyBaseClass>)
(As all the objects are at least of that form)
Now the thing is I have a method in said base class that I override in most of the extended classes, when I grab one of the objects from the map and call that method I'll simply get the method specified in the base class, this isn't what I want and I'm wondering on how to fix that? Does me putting them in a Map as the base class make Java "forget" what "bigger" class they were? Can I simply change them back in to the extended class? Is my approach wrong here?
Would me using an interface that requires the method and then mapping them using the interface work with the overrides?
java makes me wanna rm -rf tbh
inner jewel
then it's not overriding properly

So lemme ask you guys this. What hosting service do you guys all use? Also, is Digital Ocean considered expensive? If so, what are some other hosts besides OVH. I use Vultr rn, wanted to switch to GG, but too many issues, again.
earnest phoenix
DO is fairly cheap
i used scaleway for my old discord bot
currently using google cloud
abstract crow
The only thing with DO is I have no clue what any of this means https://moosecorp.xyz/i/dusty-brake-4324.png
Droplets are just your servers
But like Kubernetes? And why host a DB for more money, when u could just host it with the VPS?
amber fractal
Having the db on the same machine can cause the app to run slower
abstract crow
Yeah but don't companies just have a dedi for the DB or somethin
abstract crow
So your just paying for another server that runs a prebuilt DB for you to customize
I mean I am fine with setting up the server myself. Its just right now, is it safe to run both on one VPS? And what do bigger companies use, inhouse hosting or companies like DO
earnest phoenix
if you're not worried about resource management, it is
also, it depends
some companies prefer to host everything on their servers while companies like discord are hosted on google cloud
scarlet phoenix
The main thing is that a dedicated database vps usually have really nice built in features not usually needed on a normal vps
abstract crow
Ok. Cuz right now like I am 14 and don't have things that require gazillions of gbs. So having a big server isn't necessary for me, but I want something that I can roll into the future with
scarlet phoenix
Typically around security and snapshot backups
abstract crow
Hm
scarlet phoenix
At work (Med sized fintech company) We work with ~70 different db instances
abstract crow
Also with Vultr I had issues with Ubuntu 19.x, DO offers that too, I see more use 18.04, should I go 19 or 18?
scarlet phoenix
Yeah, I always the most current LTS build
earnest phoenix
managed databases also offer things like metrics, which is actually really useful
abstract crow
At the same time u said that this came up https://moosecorp.xyz/i/hallowed-engine-9962.png
scarlet phoenix
They are different metrics
scarlet phoenix
The db instances will be specific to that, disk IO latency, DB pool sizes, IO and stuff

Maybe they don't install something, but all these x isn't installed, can't run y, can't do z function
scarlet phoenix
If you dont use docker stuff Skysilk is pretty good and cheap
But their VPS's run on LXC so no container stuff unfortunatly
They are working on KVM stuff tho
abstract crow
I don't even know what docker is. Shocker there, pun intended
earnest phoenix
you should really get into learning docker
scarlet phoenix
Docker is super useful
earnest phoenix
it's amazing
abstract crow
So droplets are VPS's, Kubernetes are what?
scarlet phoenix
Docker + Docker-compose + K8s is super nice
abstract crow
I will have to look that up, what does Docker do?
scarlet phoenix
I do at work, but for my discord bot I just have traffic routed to the k8s pod with that shard
earnest phoenix
sentry + docker is a must combo for me right now, those two in a combo make my life so much easier
abstract crow
Ok so for someone like me, basic developer, hosting bots and websites, with like 0 traffic, Droplet with LTS Ubuntu, and then run my PSQL DB on there?
Sentry I โค
scarlet phoenix
We used to use sentry at work, we switched off it for a homebrew solution
Was nice for the couple monthes I used it
I have a server for my bot with different channels for logging and error reporting and it works out well to alert me
scarlet phoenix
Hey I know some of those lol
abstract crow
Oo Plesk ๐
earnest phoenix
those are just preinstalled software etc
just go with a simple empty ubuntu image
then install what you need on it
abstract crow
Yeah Plesk is
abstract crow
Yeah I really don't
scarlet phoenix
its worth it to get the experience
abstract crow
I have NGINX setup somehow
I don't know how
Reverse proxy shit
vime ๐
WTF
Well just had to make 2 payments for it to register.
@earnest phoenix Would you happen to know how I can forward my VPS IP to my URL?
I have DNS options
quiet flame
`client.on('message', message => {
if (message.attachments.height != 0){
message.react(':heart:');
}
});`
Trying to make the bot auto react to an image
abstract crow
Use code blocks ๐
quiet flame
but this make it react to plain text too
abstract crow
Also, console.log a lot.
console.log(message.attachments.height)
Try reacting with the ID
earnest phoenix
attachments is a collection
abstract crow
\โค
earnest phoenix
@abstract crow you can do that with nginx
abstract crow
So forward my VPS IP, to My Domain, which forwards back to my VPS?
I have it setup with CloudFlare
earnest phoenix
well, it should return to your domain
which should then contact your internal app
abstract crow
Ah gotcha
earnest phoenix
i found this on serverfault https://serverfault.com/a/629153
abstract crow
I'll check it out

fervent pilot
When I create a new .js file called commands then code commands in that file it doesnโt work
warm marsh
Yikes.
Make a message handler
then call functions within that file or make external files for each and store them inside a map/collection.
fervent pilot
Thank you
quiet flame
@quartz kindle Bro size worked 
`client.on('message', message => {
if (message.attachments.size > 0){
message.react('โค');
}
});`

Ok so I need some sql peoples
I am trying to grant all privs on a user on ALL databases
I can only find on 1 db, not all
abstract crow
I am trying to grant all privileges to a user in SQL
But not just in a single database
earnest phoenix
You canโt do it in multiple databases I donโt think you would have to run them a couple of times to get what your doing..
Unless your thinking of tables,
earnest phoenix
Hmm I donโt use SQL in websites still donโt think you can access multiple tables and databases at a time
I forgot how to make scroll bars in HTML5
Anyone know how?
valid frigate
though if you read the page it's non standard
only works on chrome, meaning if you want to hide the scollbar youll need to make fallbacks for safari, edge, etc

@sterile quarry code? And have you recently installed/updated d.js
earnest phoenix
Oof
cursive dagger
Hmmm can you try to use bot <token> in your login method?
cursive dagger
Replace that with bot.login("bot Token")
earnest phoenix
bot.login
sterile quarry
so change client.login(token) to bot.login(token)?
sterile quarry
want me to send u the java script

is this for dbl
opal summit
Yes
cursive dagger
<br/>
opal summit
Ok thx
earnest phoenix
<br/>
earnest phoenix
No
@cursive dagger
He doesnt have token
Defined
The const token is undefined
So the login is invalied
cursive dagger
Snuwy it's a recent api change.
cursive dagger
Discord recently forced their api to have not infront of their token, but discord.js didnt have it at the time
opal summit
I have try to put all the link and only the ID
earnest phoenix
Just the id
cursive dagger
Hm can you copy paste the server format you are using with the Id only
cursive dagger
Hm and your bot is in this server with dsl in it
opal summit
Yes it's the support server ๐
opal summit
Yep
cursive dagger
You should DM oliy about this
opal summit
Ok

I think my html doesn't work the <br></br> do nothing
peak quail
why i always get 0 when i do
message.channel.send(`${message.guild.members.filter(o => !o.presence.status === 'offline').size}`)```:(
quartz kindle
Because you are doing it wrong
!variable attempts to convert it to boolean and invert it
So then youre checking if false === offline
Which will always fail
You want the not equal operator, which is variable !== offline
pine edge
Hey guys, you having method to work on bot discord and use prod branch and dev branch without create two app ?
wet void
Technically you could log in twice concurrently. If the code that's running is the same, everything would be duplicated. Eg running your help command, you'd get two replies. You could do something with process.env.MODE or .DEV or .PREFIX, up to you, to decide which bot reacts to what prefix or in what channels, but I think it'd just be a better idea to have two tokens. Each in a different .env file. @pine edge
pine edge
@wet void thanks actually run my bot on my vps with pm2 and if i run it on localy is no same ?
wet void
Each message would get processed twice, one on each of the two running apps. Same token used to log in twice at the same time, so just your one bot online.
pine edge
Ok thanks for this information @wet void

Hi, I need help. This command should do me leave a voice channel, but it doesnt work:
let messageArray = message.content.split(" ");
let cmd = messageArray[0];
if(cmd==='!humo')
{
let iduserafk = message.author.id;
let Canalvoz = message.guild.member(iduserafk).voiceChannel;
if(!Canalvoz)
{
message.channel.send('You are not in a channel.');
}
else
{
message.guild.member(iduserafk).setVoiceChannel(null);
}
}
@midnight lantern What the error ?
midnight lantern
I dont leave the channel
pine edge
No error in terminal or whatever ?
midnight lantern
no
pine edge
And bot have permission to move ?
try this
else
{
member(iduserafk).setVoiceChannel(null);
}

@midnight lantern does the bot have permission to kick you

I also want to add in individual toggles for each event there is like, guildMemberAdd, guildMemberRemove, messageUpdate, roleUpdate, etc
But that seems to be a bit messy so I wanted to know if there was a better way to do it
opaque eagle
Would that log ~ or ~/foo/?js // ~/foo/index.js export class Foo { constructor() { console.log(__dirname) } }``````js // ~/index.js import { Foo } from './foo/' new Foo()
(I'm writing a node module and I need to write files and make dirs from where my module's class is initialized)

How do you make the colored text?
opaque eagle
```lang
code
```
wheat carbon
Ok thanks
console.log('Test');
export class Foo {
constructor() {
console.log(__dirname)
}
}
?
Ohhh
export class Foo {
constructor() {
console.log(__dirname)
}
}
There thanks
opaque eagle
replace lang with the language the code is in, so smth like this:
```js
// js for javascript
console.log("foo")
```
@wheat carbon
wheat carbon
Yes thanks

does anyone know how long it takes the website to update how many servers your bot is in ?
amber fractal
Did you post?
earnest phoenix
yes
opaque eagle
Are u sure it was successful
earnest phoenix
i updated the bot token it post the servers of
earnest phoenix
i know it works because, i started posting the server count of a test bot
and the website showed 3
now i changed the bot it should post server count of
but it still shows 3, not sure if it's delay or just unsuccessful
opaque eagle
how did u get a "test bot" approved through dbl
earnest phoenix
it's not a bot on the site
just my personal
generating a new apikey for dbl might work
amber fractal
@opaque eagle you just need the token to post
opaque eagle
oh
earnest phoenix
but i guess it's not optimal to able to post the server count of a different bot on the site
update, i got it working
the issue was i had several bots with the same bot token running

Any of them

Is Node.isOnline inside an exported function?
alpine lark
quartz kindle
You properly closed Node.isOnline, but you didnt close exports.run after it
quartz kindle
Yes, from what i can see, exports.help is inside exports.run, and exports.run is never closed
alpine lark
Still have same error
quartz kindle
You need to close exports.run before you begin exports.help
Check how you opened it, and close it the same way
hollow saddle
Removing the comma will do nothing
Itโs a trailing comma
It can be there or not, it doesnโt matter
mossy vine
surprised it doesnt cause an error
quartz kindle
Js ignores trailing commas in objects because its smart, but json is not as forgiving
A trailing comma in json will cause an error

Would it be good to just transfer stats and bot information via a database and then pull it using PHP instead of using a WS server, that I can't use online
manic geode
How would I make a command that adds a new channel with a certain name? I am trying to make an essentials bot that has moderation, utilities, and normal uses. This command will be like a ticket creator. I've looked in the documentation but couldn't find a function that creates a channel.
