all they have to do is construct the string inside the method and instead of bot, use member

Well, gameRoom[message.channel.id] is obviously not an array then...
earnest phoenix
how would i add an array to gameRoom ?
unkempt moon
gameRoom[message.channel.id] = gameRoom[message.channel.id] || []
gameRoom[message.channel.id].push(message.author.id)
Or if you're being fancy (not recommended)
gameRoom[message.channel.id] = (gameRoom[message.channel.id] && gameRoom[message.channel.id].push(message.author.id) && gameRoom[message.channel.id]) || [message.author.id]
bit confused about how that work
unkempt moon
The second one is confusing all right, you can ignore it. Did you understand the first code block?
earnest phoenix
why the gameRoom... = gameRoom part ?
unkempt moon
It just makes sure gameRoom[message.channel.id] is an array
You could see it as this condition
if (!gameRoom[message.channel.id])
gameRoom[message.channel.id] = []
ok, what about the " or empty brackets "
ahh
okay i understand now
your condition example made sense to me
unkempt moon
One thing to understand is that the || (OR) operator in JavaScript does not create a boolean, it just returns the first value that is truthy.
If you take my first example, gameRoom[message.channel.id] is set to either gameRoom[message.channel.id] if it exists, or [] (an empty array) in the other case
earnest phoenix
thank you :)

How do you make a web dashboard?
earnest phoenix
you'd usually find a framework that allows you to host a webserver, then you would split it into backend and frontend, frontend is suggested to be a SPA (single application page) something like react or angular
you would then buy a vps and a domain, link your domain to your vps

I have the website

Does the bot need the webhook or the website need the webhook?
earnest phoenix
you can place your webhook handler anywhere you want, but from my perspective it would be better to do it on the web server that hosts the website as the website has to handle requests already
wait no
ignore what i just said
i was thinking websockets
for webhooks you have to place the handler wherever you want to receive the variable
if you want to exchange variables both ways real time, then use websockets and refer to my first message above

Hi everyone,
I am new to classes and the super() function.
I just ran into an error where I can't help myself.
Does anyone know why I get the below meniotned error?
class PresenceLoop(client):
def __init__(self):
self.bg_task = super().loop.create_task(self.my_background_task())
async def my_background_task(self):
[DO XY]
Called with
Presence = PresenceLoop()
ERROR: __init__() takes 1 positional argument but 4 were given
west spoke
self has 4 positional arguments
It may be defined somewhere else, but that's not how def() works
pine jacinth
What do you mean by that? (that's not how def() works)
west spoke
that self may have been defined somewhere else. But in that kind of thing, (def()) the variables are <var>="" (I think)
slender thistle
How do you even accidentally re-define self
pine jacinth
Yeah, self is not redefined in my class
@west spoke I should have mentioned that I am using python
west spoke
I know
I use python
By <var> I meant a blank variable
eg def Uname(name=message.author):
slender thistle
But where's that supposed to be
pine jacinth
Ah, now I get you. But then you would have defined it before calling it.
@slender thistle Do you mean me?
slender thistle
slender thistle
What is client
slender thistle
There's no point in kwargs
pine jacinth
client is my discord.Client() object
west spoke
Oooh async
slender thistle
Huh, it's an instance, not the class itself, right?
pine jacinth
yeah
slender thistle
I'm getting a completely different error for instances
pine jacinth
shivaco would you mind, if I showed you the full code in a call?
west spoke
^
pine jacinth
right
west spoke
wait client=client
you would need to define it in the def(client) in the other parts of the code
slender thistle
What
slender thistle
Yeah subclassing doesn't work like that
west spoke
that's how it works for me :v
pine jacinth
@slender thistle Here's the updated version: https://paste.mod.gg/emocibugaf.rb I now get 'super' object has no attribute 'loop' But super is discord.Client and it definetly has .loop
slender thistle
Yeah the client isn't ready yet when __init__ is called so .loop doesn't exist
pine jacinth
so, add await client.wait_until_ready() before?
slender thistle
__init__ is not a courutine
slender thistle
Send full traceback
pine jacinth
def __init__(self):
super().wait_until_ready()
self.bg_task = super().loop.create_task(self.my_background_task())
I guess wait_until_ready doesn't do much good without await
self.bg_task = super().loop.create_task(self.my_background_task()) AttributeError: 'super' object has no attribute 'loop'
slender thistle
Don't override __init__ when subclassing Client/Bot
You can use on_ready for this tbh
pine jacinth
That's true. But what if I want my presence to have nice functions, etc. Wanted to learn a bit about super this way too. But seems like it doesn't work that easily xD
west spoke
And just make it loop in the on_ready
slender thistle
Meh, you can slap that task creating thing under on_ready, it's up to you
pine jacinth
But it on_ready isn't called. I guess because the discord.Client object is never run
slender thistle
Just subclass discord.Client, on_ready will be called when the client is somewhat ready to be used
That's why it's an event
pine jacinth
I have to call it with @<X>.event. But what do I put as <X>? Super() doesn't work
slender thistle
Nothing
It's just a function when subclassing
no decorators needed
As shown here https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/edits.py, basically
pine jacinth
But in this example Mylient is being run with a token. Can I run with the same token twice?
slender thistle
Not sure if I'm following you here. Are you confused about the last line in that example where the parameter to .run is just a string without any variable?
You can use the same token as long as it isn't regenerated
pine jacinth
ok, yeah I was confused about that and wether I can run it a second time
west spoke
You can't run twice
slender thistle
Technically speaking, .run is blocking, so that's why you can't do
bot1.run('token')
bot2.run('token')```So I can't run twice? @slender thistle
slender thistle
You mean use two .runs at once?
pine jacinth
use another run in the first client's on_ready()
pine jacinth
newest
slender thistle
pine jacinth
This function must be the last function to call due to the fact that it is blocking. That means that registration of events or anything being called after this function call will not execute until it returns.
twilit rapids
What is a simple way to get the CPU usage using javascript.
slender thistle
Yes, .run is blocking
Could this be helpful, Timo? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36816181/get-view-memory-cpu-usage-via-nodejs
pine jacinth
I got it working now:
class PresenceLoop():
def __init__(self, client):
self.client = client
self.bg_task = client.loop.create_task(self.my_background_task())
@client.event
async def on_ready():
Presence = PresenceLoop(client)
uhhhh

What's your code looking like

class PresenceLoop():

self.client = client
self.bg_task = client.loop.create_task(self.my_background_task())
async def my_background_task(self):

await self.client.change_presence([STUFF])
await asyncio.sleep(wait_time)
@client.event
async def on_ready():
Presence = PresenceLoop(client)
client.run(Token)
- Please make
wait_timeanything that's more than 12 - Looks like
PresenceLoop's tasks don't get cancelled - What's the point of the presence loop being a completely different class though?
pine jacinth
I got rid of the Exception with a try, except on client.run(Token). But that does not seem to be the perfect solution.

- ok
- how can I cancel the task and where should I cancel it?
- uhm So I can add functions to it in the future if needed.
I still get the error when uping wait_time to 30 but will higher it to 30
I will look into cancellling tasks now :>
slender thistle
Could honestly make a loop that you'd run under on_ready instead of the whole separate class thing imo
pine jacinth
That's true but still think it's nicer with the class. I can verify that it does not have to do with using a class instead of on_ready()
slender thistle
that's up to you ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I thought about azure pipelines, or travis-ci
Not sure tho, dont have much experience with that, my old apps just pulled and restarted

onyx summit
ok so no serious answers here
earnest phoenix
does anyone know what "cached" specifically means ?
like, is it every user that has interacted with the bot ?
onyx summit
users that are stored in the ram
grim aspen
Basically
hushed berry
kinda
grim aspen
Maybe
earnest phoenix
onyx summit
you should always make sure and fetch specific users if you need them (if they are in the cached there wont go a request out)
for what purpose you need them?
earnest phoenix
seen some bots have "serving x amount of users" in the activity status and wanted to make something similar
hushed berry
ahh
onyx summit
sec
earnest phoenix
i got it working, but seems like a crazy large amount of users
hushed berry
what is it?
onyx summit
you probably forgot this server 
earnest phoenix
my bot is in 100 servers but the .users returns 33k
onyx summit
read up
earnest phoenix
huh
slender thistle
Cache
hushed berry
The bot doesnt automatically retrieve every member
onyx summit
client.guilds.map(g => g.memberCount).reduce((a, b) => a + b)
this will count all members, it won't be very exact tho
(probably better ways, but that is mine)
earnest phoenix
never tested my bot on this server
slender thistle
onyx summit
its one line who cares
earnest phoenix
xD
slender thistle
More than 0 so I do care
earnest phoenix
so your method would return a larger number than the cache method
onyx summit
it will map all guilds by their memberCount (which should be exact) and then count them all together.
If a user is in multiple guilds he will count multiple times
onyx summit
wdym
earnest phoenix
the likelihood of a users being in multiple channels, that your bot is in
onyx summit
guilds*
earnest phoenix
oh mb
onyx summit
tbh if ur bot is a bit bit bit big (> 100 Guilds) that few numbers won't matter
onyx summit
but still
earnest phoenix
just thought it was an interesting observation¨
does that mean every bot on discordbots.org
has more than 60k users
onyx summit
no, only those who are on this server 
time to get my bot on this server
torpid fox
anyone got a idea how the dbl widget could be included in a bots message?
amber fractal
By sending the link?
torpid fox
the widget link? if yes, that doesnt work
amber fractal
Yes
torpid fox
earnest phoenix
basically
append a url param
something like ?v=whatever
and the client will redownload the picture instead of grabbing it from the cache
amber fractal
You can just use the time 
earnest phoenix
i mean
torpid fox
does the url param need to be changed each time the command is run?
amber fractal
Thats why the time would be easy
torpid fox
also need to find my code for importing url to attachment 😅
made that a while ago when experimenting with rankcard
thx for the help
earnest phoenix
Wait you're the dank memer creator
amber fractal
You can send any bots widget

isnt it just the id of the bot?

unique nimbus
Pokecord is just a bot for pokemon fans
earnest phoenix
What bot do you have most respectful for, code and function wise ?
non public ones
Stuff that can't be contained within 1 bot ?
private bots are more often than not higher quality than public bots
and that's mainly because it doesn't have to have all that extra code for multiple guilds
Why my bot cant send a help message into the mod tester server but it will send the message in minea
Anyone?
quartz kindle
i have respect for anything thats in over 100k guilds. i like to thinker about how each of them approached performance issues and load balancing
zealous veldt

quartz kindle
im having fun customizing discord.js to run on 100mb ram
zealous veldt
oooo
quartz kindle
i made it compatible with pm2 clustering as well
mossy vine
okay open that source pls
quartz kindle
its basically anti-caching
lul
caching only what the bot actually uses
it breaks a lot of stuff tho, so its not for everyone
zealous veldt
aaa
earnest phoenix
What's the reason discord.js doesn't already "cache only what the bot uses"
zealous veldt
Are you going to be making that public?
quartz kindle
maybe
zealous veldt
If you do, I'd love to use it
quartz kindle
so far i've only tested it with messages, since my bot doesnt need anything else, so idk if voice works, but things such as roles, reactions and presences probably dont work (can be fixed)
earnest phoenix
is there a function is discord.js that checks when a user has no more servers common with a bot
west spoke
you would have to search through every server I think
earnest phoenix
yes
west spoke
and see if the member is in it
quartz kindle
and he might not be cached in all of them
west spoke
^
earnest phoenix
yup, you would have to download all of the members in all of the guilds which costs performance and bandwidth
unfortunately the endpoint that provides user information (common servers, badges etc.) on the client is for users only
cause basically my leaderboard command has a .tag and it can't read some users since they kicked the bot from the server
/ have no common servers with the bot
bot.users.get
does the same
it does not
if the user's in cache, it will provide the cached user, otherwise it will fetch the user via the REST endpoint which returns basic user information regardless of shared guilds
this is a http://xyproblem.info/
paginatedItems.forEach(paginatedItem => {
topembed.addField(i++, `<@${paginatedItem.ID.charAt(8) + paginatedItem.ID.substr(9)}> | Rupees: ${paginatedItem.data}.`)
console.log(i++, `${bot.users.get(paginatedItem.ID.charAt(8) + paginatedItem.ID.substr(9)).tag} | Rupees: ${paginatedItem.data}.`)
})```I should replace bot.users.get with bot.fetchUser?
you'll have to adjust it a little since fetchUser returns a promise
but in theory, yes
hushed berry
@quartz kindle my DMs are always open if youve got questions about how I've scaled groovy 😊
inner jewel
scaling discord bots is a massive pain
hushed berry
The current system can scale pretty much as far as the database can scale
unborn shoal
Can you give some examples of what youve scaled and what memory youve saved from it @hushed berry
inner jewel
scaling horizontally doesnt save memory usually
hushed berry
yeah
unborn shoal
then what advantages are there?
hushed berry
Err
I have like mroe than enough ram because it basically comes free with the cpu we require
so i havent needed to optimize ram stuff very much
inner jewel
cost
vertical scaling can only get you where a single server is enough
and horizontal scaling has higher fault tolerancy
earnest phoenix
is there a way to show the tag when using bot.fetchUser?
inner jewel
bot.fetchUser(id).then(user => user.tag)
hushed berry
you cant scale vertically forever
inner jewel
^
massive servers are very expensive
and if you need more than what current hardware can handle you need to scale horizontally

does discord enforce the 1/5 ws login limit?
when using cluster mode, processes are able to restart independently, but since they are not aware of each other, they might attempt to login multiple times at once

Not sure how I’d limit the results to 10 as well as put them in order from greatest to least
Actually maybe I could make a new function hm
hushed berry
@quartz kindle yeah, discord does enforce it
you need to synchronize the identifies so that they dont step on each others toes
quartz kindle
im thinking about using a lockfile
so clusters wait until the lock is released before attempting to login
should be good enough for a single machine. running on multiple machines would require a centralized controller anyway, am i right?
loud salmon
topaz fjord
I mean
logically yes @quartz kindle
I guess you could have a central thing that notifies a cluster that it's okay to login
hushed berry
@quartz kindle yeah, you're pretty spot on

im making my bot compatible with pm2 clusters, which means it needs to be decentralized/stateless

How
your foreach func is async
everything else is sync
It doesn't matter, the end thing is the message isn't working

you are sending the message before the loop finishes
.forEach() is not stopped by await
also await something().then() is not a thing

@quartz kindle I don't know how you've made D.JS stateless/without it's own supervisor process, but one of things you could use is ZeroMQ. Your first shard can be the listener, all the others can connect to it, and reconnections are entirely transparent. Plus, you can transmit any kind of data, and it's well-tested software
From their website:
ZeroMQ (also known as ØMQ, 0MQ, or zmq) looks like an embeddable networking library but acts like a concurrency framework. It gives you sockets that carry atomic messages across various transports like in-process, inter-process, TCP, and multicast. You can connect sockets N-to-N with patterns like fan-out, pub-sub, task distribution, and request-reply. It's fast enough to be the fabric for clustered products. Its asynchronous I/O model gives you scalable multicore applications, built as asynchronous message-processing tasks. It has a score of language APIs and runs on most operating systems.
onyx summit
if you need ipc clients and servers with responses I can recommend Veza.
I spawn a child on startup and then communicate with it over ipc so it does stuff for me that would be too heavy on the main process. (Like calculating string similarity between (yet) 400 Strings)

When it comes to Role.position does a smaller number mean higher position or vice versa?

anyone good with classes and bindings, i have a question:
lets say i want to add a new method to djs.'s Message class, so that everytime i receive a message, i can do message.mymethod(something)
im using Discord.Message.prototype.mymethod = function(something) {} and it works, except i lose the this reference and i cannot access the properties of the current message instance from within mymethod()
how would i bind mymethod to every Message class instance?
opaque eagle
Do you use v12 or v11.x? @quartz kindle
quartz kindle
v12
opaque eagle
D.js makes this easy with structures```js
const { Message, Structures } = require("discord.js");
class CustomMessage extends Message {
// add all the getters and methods you want...
get hello() {
return "world";
}
foo() {
return "smth";
}
}
Structures.extend("Message", () => CustomMessage);```
All incoming messages will be an instance of CustomMessage
quartz kindle
oh interesting

You have to extend all the structures before instantiating your client

@opaque eagle the only way i could get it to work was by using bind, although i was trying to avoid it
client.on("message", message => {
message.send("something").then(message.mymethod.bind(message))
})```anyway to simplify this?
i extended the class like this js Structures.extend("Message", Message => { class xMessage extends Message { constructor(client, data, channel) { super(client, data, channel); } mymethod(response) { console.log(this,response); } } return xMessage; });
basically im trying to join the received and the returned message in a single function
quartz kindle
nvm, theres no way to do this without binding because its a promise
inner jewel
.then(()=>message.mymethod())
it's not because it's a promise
it's because using obj.method as a value wont have it bound to the instance by default
quartz kindle
or that yes
im thinking of doing something else rn
i kinda want to do this behind the scenes, im looking into hooking into the message.reply function
or just making my own message.send

you mean command line?
if you meant command line:

vagrant bison
I want to get the text from a given line of the txt file
onyx summit
read the file. split at \n, boom you have an array with each line
if the file is big you should stream it tho
small file: read the whole file and split it by \n
big file: stream it (e.g. with https://www.npmjs.com/package/line-reader)
vagrant bison
where should I change it?
onyx summit
change what?
onyx summit
require('fs').readFileSync('som/file/u/need').split('\n')[3] // line 4 (I think)`
Dont use sync methods tho, it blocks the event loop (your process wont do anything besides reading the file)

My english sucks too, but its enough for reading some lines 
okay, readFileSync returns a buffer, and you need a string, so you call toString() on the buffer

const theString = buffer.toString();
// theString is now a string, whow
or you can set the encoding to utf8
vagrant bison
Where to enter the verse?
