im getting confused by your methods :/

#

i dont use mongo

valid frigate Sep 1, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

ah ok

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

i use quick.db

valid frigate Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

similar concept across all databases

wanton nova Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

gonna ask again, where would i set the authorization?

valid frigate Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

if you do need any additional help Google is also a thing

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

On the site

#

In the edit tab of your bot

wanton nova Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

oh

valid frigate Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

this might be a better question to ask in #topgg-api mmulu

wanton nova Sep 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

thanks

#

oh i forgot that exists 😔

#

sorry

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:05 PM

#

still confused 😂

#

can u show me an example

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:06 PM

#

uhh

#

this uses that concept

#

But does that rly help you

#

On each update I get the current time and compare it with the previously saved time

#

(lastupdate)

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:09 PM

#

nothing shows up on console :/

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

what

#

even

#

what code

#

are you using now

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

my original one

#

on index

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

Well

#

Your previous codeblock sent in this channel

#

Is wrong

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

:/

#

so where would i put this

#

index.js or message.js

#

?

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

You put a timeout in the foreach

#

While you probably meant to put a foreach in an interval

#

index.js is fine

#

Just follow your code in your head

#

You posted

client.users.forEach(user => {
setTimeout(function(){                                      
      db.add(`currency_${user.id}` , 100)
      console.log('GIVEN 100 COINS')
   }, 10000)
});```

#

What does that do

#

For each user you're setting a timeout

#

What's a timeout

#

It means you're waiting x before doing y

#

For each user you're setting a timeout to give them some money

#

Meaning you have hundreds/thousands of timeouts running

#

That will only trigger once

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:14 PM

#

client.users.forEach(user => {
let timestamp = new Date());
let auto = timestamp-client.lastUpdate / 60000
client.lastUpdate = timestamp
setInterval(function(){                                      
      db.add(`currency_${user.id}` , 100)
      console.log('GIVEN 100 COINS')
   }, 1 * 1000)
    

});

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:14 PM

#

Well

#

The point of our timestamp mechanism is avoiding the loops

#

It's one or another

#

👀

#

On top of that

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

should i remove

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

You're still setting an interval for each user

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

setInterval

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

Meaning if more users get added

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

and forEach?

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

Or some leave

#

The intervals will remain the same

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

oh

#

so remove setInterval and forEach?

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:16 PM

#

Make a choice as to what you're willing to do first

#

👀

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:16 PM

#

let timestamp = new Date());
let auto = timestamp-client.lastUpdate / 60000
client.lastUpdate = timestamp
      db.add(`currency_${user.id}` , 100)
      console.log('GIVEN 100 COINS')

#

now what 😂

#

im a noob

#

:/

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:17 PM

#

If you're using the timestamp method

#

You should have a timestamp saved per user

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:17 PM

#

hm

late hill Sep 1, 2019, 7:17 PM

#

So client.lastUpdate doesn't make much sense there

#

idk what your code is like

#

You'd need some place, some action on which you'd want to update their stats

#

That's where you'll put your timestamps code

broken shale Sep 1, 2019, 7:20 PM

#

I got a feeling that's quick.db

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 7:20 PM

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:29 PM

that would possibly be the worst anonymous chat ever having to switch between discords 😄

!anonymouschat discord dot gg slash my server

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:31 PM

Pseudo anonymous 👌

Just thought it be fun to chat through a discord bot with ppl you don't share a server with

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:31 PM

ytho

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:32 PM

For fun

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:32 PM

meh

#

there is a bot soon to come that does that but in a srv 😁

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:32 PM

You're already making one ?

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:33 PM

i alr have one 😄

its FLUFFY

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

Didn't you just call the idea "meh" and reccomend against it ?

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

yep

#

the cross srv is MEH

#

to much effort to switch between discords to read a msg 😄

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:35 PM

#

What do you mean by switching server ?

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:35 PM

#

going inbetween 2 discords to read a msg

#

when u could do in 1 srv

#

its not effeciant imagine switching apps on phone to have a conversation 😄

#

its not that bad i lied but its still bad 😄

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:36 PM

That's not how I imagine it either

https://tenor.com/view/halter-beyin-komik-brain-workout-gif-13417733

Tenor

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:37 PM

#

Like the bot would repeat everything said to it from all the servers it's in,

#

Serv 1: msg 1, serv 2: msg 2

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:37 PM

#

that would be ~~aids~~

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:38 PM

#

Bot: msg 1, msg 2

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:38 PM

#

i mean its a thing but y 2 dif srvs?

#

imagine some kid on one side spamming ~~NAUGHTY~~ words what would the other side do?

#

if they cant ban or mute him

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

Idunno, maybe the bot would support multiple " rooms"

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:40 PM

#

still not a fix

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:40 PM

#

Of connected servers

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:40 PM

#

he would switch 😄

#

then do again 😄

#

but in the same srv they can look at mod log and ban

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:40 PM

#

Oh I think I understand your idea ish ?

#

Or maybe I got a new idea,

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:41 PM

#

hit me

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:41 PM

What if you had a server

#

Only populated by 1 bot

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:42 PM

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:42 PM

#

w.h.y?

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:42 PM

#

Everyone has to write through the bot lol

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:42 PM

#

WHY 😄

#

what benefit does that have?

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:43 PM

#

Like in the dm channel between the user and the bot

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:43 PM

#

yeah

#

i see were ur goin

#

for half a sec it was like ok avoid making a million channels but they would still have to switch pages

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:43 PM

#

I'd think it would be an interesting experiment at the very least

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:43 PM

#

it would

#

it would be ez

earnest phoenix Sep 1, 2019, 9:44 PM

#

That too

barren crest Sep 1, 2019, 9:44 PM

#

same thing im doing but thru dms instead of channels

#

but its inconvenient

uptime will wake it up but its still being forced sleep and can result in downtime

its also worth noting that uptime isnt always reliable on ping times https://oh-mah.ga/LXzybKzZ.png
thoughout the last period it only got 3 points in a row right

#

if it done all on time then all points would be clustered like that

#

so in terms of monitoring its good
but if you depend on it for uptime like anti sleep then your gonna have potential issues

probably best to ask elsewhere though since it's an nsfw website and dbl doesn't allow nsfw

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 12:17 AM

#

isn't it fine as long as nsfw is restricted behind nsfw channels

#

i remember when my bot was accepted, it had a notable category of nsfw commands

#

but it didn't list nsfw commands nor allowed the usage of nsfw outside of nsfw channels

amber fractal Sep 2, 2019, 12:18 AM

#

bots on dbl can have nsfw features, just cant be listed, unless you're dank memer because you drive too much traffic for the rules to apply

Maybe a dumb question, but with discordjs, will client.users.size get a count of all the members the bot is helping?

topaz fjord Sep 2, 2019, 1:45 AM

#

@abstract crow passport is cool

#

There's a discord passport module

#

@earnest phoenix no

#

it will get the cached users

#

to get all users you need to filter through all guilds and get their member count

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 1:46 AM

#

ohhh, that's what I thought was happening, thanks :)

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 3:01 AM

#

Ooh you’re learning React

#

Good use of ur time

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 3:15 AM

#

When getting member count, it currently would count the same member for each time they happen to be in a guild, is there a better way to get member count, where it doesn't end up counting the same member multiple times. Currently I have client.guilds.map(g => g.memberCount).reduce((a, b) => a + b);.

#

you'll have to download all users from your guilds and then you can use client.users.size, with filtering applied

#

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Guild?scrollTo=fetchMembers - do this on every guild in your client to have every member in cache

#

it can hang for a while though if the guild has a lot of members

#

that seems like it would be a bit inefficient

#

but it would work

#

its the only way if you want to filter users

#

you need to have a reference to the user if you want to filter them out of other guilds

#

and to have a reference to the user you have to download all members (because it's a collection, if it wasn't you could just use fetchMember)

#

Even though it's a bit inefficient, i'm still gonna use it, thanks for your assistance 👍

Lots, those are called mod logs

Search for bots on the website and you’ll find one that does it... most likely, one of the bots you already have in your server might already do it.

Like Sequelize or TypeORM

I really don’t feel like rewriting the db again ;-;

#

Not on a tablet anyway kek

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 6:47 AM

Like js // SELECT modLogChannel FROM guild WHERE id = 'ID_HERE' LIMIT 1; Guild.findOne({ select: ["modLogChannel"], where: { id: "ID_HERE" } });

#

Kinda easier to look at

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 6:48 AM

or ```js
/*

equivalent to: CREATE TABLE tags(

username VARCHAR(255),

*/
const Tags = sequelize.define('tags', {

description: Sequelize.TEXT,
username: Sequelize.STRING,

Defining structures in TypeORM (using TypeScript, JavaScript has similar syntax with some differences)```js
import {Entity, PrimaryGeneratedColumn, Column, BaseEntity} from "typeorm";

@Entity()
export class User extends BaseEntity {

@PrimaryGeneratedColumn()
id: number;

@Column()
firstName: string;

@Column()
lastName: string;

@Column()
age: number;

}```

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 6:51 AM

#

That’s Typescript?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 6:51 AM

But TypeORM in JavaScript sports a similar format

#

yeah, that's typescript code

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 6:52 AM

#

Wait what’s the point ofTypescript

#

What’s it used for

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 6:52 AM

#

Strong typing

#

Everything has types

#

function add(x: number, y: number): number {
   return x + y;

class MessageUtils {

static async getPrefix(message: Message): Promise<string> {
        if (message.channel instanceof TextChannel) {
            return Guild.findOne({
                where: { id: message.channel.guild.id }
            }).then(g => g!.prefix);
        } else {
            return settings.prefix;
        }

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:21 AM

#

Yes

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:21 AM

Okay

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:21 AM

Yeah, this is my ping command now

My ping cmd is like 20 lines

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:22 AM

#

My actual ping code is 11 lines

#

But classes

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:22 AM

#

localhost is usually just fancy-talk for 127.0.0.0/8 (v4) or ::1 (v6) so I don't see why not

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:22 AM

#

Name, description and usage

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:22 AM

#

Okay

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:23 AM

#

no u Ari

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:23 AM

#

what's the /8 at the end of 127.0.0.1?

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:23 AM

#

The port

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:24 AM

#

👀

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:24 AM

#

Awww. TIL. Interesting

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:24 AM

#

Like a fucking dictionary

#

Lmao

#

👀

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:25 AM

#

Magic, more like luck butok

#

I would never booli such qt

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:26 AM

#

So I’m guessing storage is the file where all the database stuff will be saved?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:26 AM

#

@glad shell Subnet mask of the ip

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:26 AM

#

uwu

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:26 AM

#

Do I have to create the storage file? @opaque eagle

twilit rapids Sep 2, 2019, 7:26 AM

#

no u

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:27 AM

#

Or will it create it for me

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:27 AM

#

Try and see i guess

#

I haven't used sequelize in a while

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:27 AM

#

Okay I know better-sqlite3 creates the file for you not sure about sqlite3

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:33 AM

#

Whoever asked the question about the slash, idk if I answered it in detail. Idk if you have a CS background or not, so I'll keep it short. The number to the right of the slash indicates the number of contiguous 1 bits in the netmask.
Example: 192.168.0.1/24 has a subnet mask containing 24 contiguous bits, which is 255.255.255.0.

#

Going to that specific IP I mentioned, 127.0.0.0/8 would have a subnet mask with 8 contiguous bits, which is 255.0.0.0

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:34 AM

#

That was me. Outside a Udemy Golang course for beginner programmers I have no CS background. I just recognized 127.0.0.0 as being off from the typical localhost ip of 127.0.0.1

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:35 AM

#

Yeah that's reasonable

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:38 AM

#

I’m assuming in Sequelize there is no primary key?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:38 AM

#

Anyways having that subnet mask makes sense for localhost b/c that would allow for roughly 16.7M IPs/applications, while Class A networks (medium-sized networks) have a default subnet mask of 255.0.0.0, which allows for only 256 connections

#

Sequelize assumes a primary key of id iirc

#

You can define your own, too: ```js
class Collection extends Model {}
Collection.init({
uid: {
type: Sequelize.INTEGER,
primaryKey: true,
autoIncrement: true // Automatically gets converted to SERIAL for postgres
}
}, { sequelize });

class Collection extends Model {}
Collection.init({
uuid: {
type: Sequelize.UUID,
primaryKey: true
}
}, { sequelize });```

#

@lusty dew Reading the documentation comes in handy:
https://sequelize.org/master/manual/legacy.html#primary-keys

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

I didn’t see it

#

Lol

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

np

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

Thanks

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

there's a search button for future reference if you'd like

#

it's useful to have the docs open while you're following along with Discord.js's guide

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

I hope it doesn’t matter that I’m using sequelize.define

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

Nope doesn't matter

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:40 AM

#

Okay

#

I saw d.js guide using it and the docs using init

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:41 AM

#

Yeah

#

All ORMs (Sequelize, etc) provide both an FP and OOP method to define models

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:42 AM

#

Ah mk

#

This is what I have so far:

const Sequelize = require("sequelize")
const sequelize = new Sequelize('database', 'username', 'password', {
    host: 'localhost',
    dialect: 'sqlite',
    logging: false,
    operatorsAliases: false,
    storage: 'clap.sqlite'
})

module.exports = new class DB {
    constructor(){
        Object.defineProperty(this, "sequelize", {
            value: sequelize
        })
        this.define('users', {
            id: {
                type: this.text,
                primaryKey: true
            }
        })
    }
}

#

Hopefully I’m doing it right.

#

I’m copying the same format as my old db.js file

#

What’s postgres

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:44 AM

#

forked version of mysql/mariadb with a few more features

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:45 AM

#

I don’t even know how to get a Postgres URI

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:45 AM

#

Don't worry about Postgres, I just copy-pasted that code from the docs

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:45 AM

#

^

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:46 AM

#

also the module.exports part isnt in the docs @lusty dew

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:46 AM

#

Ik

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:46 AM

#

forget what I said about the connection URI stuff, it's just gonna make the learning curve harder

#

But yeah the syntax is a bit off

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:46 AM

#

I’m not following the docs to the exact letter

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:46 AM

#

That's not how classes are made

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:47 AM

#

Hm

#

How are classes made?

#

I forgot honestly

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:47 AM

#

new doesn't belong there```js
class ClassName {

// all the other stuff

}```

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:47 AM

#

Isn’t it just class ClassName or smth

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:47 AM

#

But tbh I don't see why classes are necessary in that case

#

You can just make that connection a property in ur bot

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:48 AM

#

Wdym?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:48 AM

#

wait a min

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:48 AM

#

Okay

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:50 AM

#

Are you using a nodeJS framework @lusty dew

#

?

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:50 AM

#

Huh?

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:51 AM

#

You're using discordjs?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:52 AM

#

const db = new Sequelize('stuff here');
const Tags = db.define('more stuff');
const Guilds = db.define('more stuff too');

let client = new Discord.Client();
client = { ...client, db: { Tags, Guilds } };

// so now, you can do this anywhere, even if it's in a separate file:
client.db.Tags.findOne('stuff');```

#

No need to make a class

#

Even if you're using a command handler and the command is in a separate file, you could do: js // commands/some-cmd.js module.exports = { name: "some-cmd", run(message, args) { message.client.db.Guilds.findOne('stuff'); } };

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 7:55 AM

#

how does that set property work? Are you instantiating all instances by calliing ...client?

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:55 AM

#

I was just gonna do const db = require('../library/seq_db.js')

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

Yeah that also works

#

But that class still has some issues

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

Then I was gonna make functions for each thing I needed

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

Yeah that works

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

Like getGuild, writeGuid, etc

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

getGuild() would just be calling Guilds.findOne()

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

Yea ik

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

you don't really need to write your own functions when using smth like sequelize

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

True.

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

The point of sequelize is that you don't need to write your own functions

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

But I don’t feel like writing blah.findOne all the time kek

#

That’s my lazy side though

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

ok ur call, I guess

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

Eh if I had a pc it’d be different

#

But you’re right

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

In your class above, this.text and this.define are undefined btw

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

Huh?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

module.exports = new class DB {
constructor(){
Object.defineProperty(this, "sequelize", {
this.define('users', {
id: {
type: this.text,
primaryKey: true
}
})
}
}

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 7:59 AM

#

How is it undefined

#

Define Lang?

#

Jk

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 7:59 AM

#

No

#

Don't use JSON as a database @woven sundial

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

mysql, rethinkdb

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

An actual database

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

this.define implies that class DB or its parent(s) has a method named define()

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

redis

#

theres a lot of databases out there which are way better than json

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

const configf did you mean to have the extra f there?

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

Ah okay

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

and jsons can easily get corrupted

#

with fs if used multiple times

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

So wait how should I setup the file instead?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

I think you meant to do sequelize.define() and Sequelize.TEXT @lusty dew

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

i mean the setup file is fine as is

#

but you can put that into a db if you want to

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

Didn’t you say not to use a class?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

Yeah

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

That it was pointless?

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

But I thought you wanted to do it

#

ok

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

I just wanna get this working kek

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

lmao

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

It’s 1am and I am supposed to have been pushing the new update hours before now

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

just if you read/write like every 5 seconds to json can easily make it corrupt lol

#

oof

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:02 AM

#

Most times, developers like to define their models in separate files, kinda like commandss

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:02 AM

#

Yea. I don’t wanna do everything in my main file

#

It’d get messy

#

So I split stuff up into separate files

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

ye

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

Yeah...

weary lark Sep 2, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

modulate it

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

Wait a min, I'll get some boilerplate code going

#

// main file
const db = new Sequelize('define ur db connection here');
module.exports.db = db;``````js
// modules/Guild.js (for example)
const db = require("../path/to/that/main/file.js");
const Guild = db.define(
   /* define that model here */
);
module.exports = Guild;```

#

Then you can write a command handler-type thing to get all ur models into one object

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:05 AM

#

So I can do this instead:

const Sequelize = require('sequelize')
const sequelize = new Sequelize(blah blah blah)

module.exports = (client) => {
sequelize.define('users', {
name: {
type: sequelize.text
}
})
}

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:05 AM

#

don't do new Sequelize() in every file, that'll make a new connection each time

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

Wdym?

#

I’m not making separate files for each table

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

oh ok

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

Yea

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

then what did u mean by splitting stuff up into multiple files

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

Like my cmd handler

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:07 AM

#

lmao

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:07 AM

#

I put it in a separate file so it’s not messy

#

Cause it’s long

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:07 AM

#

ok

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 8:07 AM

#

event handler?

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

I actually gotta fix my cmd handler

#

My other dev did something to it

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

client.on, client.error.... etc

#

I couldn't initialize a lot of functionality cuz I wasn't calling the event handler
edit: you guys aren't even talking about the discordjs api. I'm tired..

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

Then maybe just a db.js that looks like: ```js
const db = new Sequelize();

module.exports.Tag = db.define();
module.exports.Guild = db.define();
// etc etc etc``````js
// so in every file you need the db in, you can do:
const { Guild } = require("../path/to/db.js");
Guild.findOne();```

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:09 AM

#

Hm

#

Seems less messy

#

Thanks

#

My way was gonna be hella messy kek

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:11 AM

#

Lol... this channel isn't supposed to be about just Discord**.js** @glad shell

#

It can be about anything related to development

glad shell Sep 2, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

I know I know. I've been at it for like 18 hours. I'm exhausted and I'm not being helpful.

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

Hm

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

I can be talking about pointers in C++ and no one can say a thing

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

Even a virus?

#

Jk

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

Well that would be against Discord ToS

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

👀

#

Yea

#

Alright ima go tryout this sequelize thing

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:13 AM

#

Unless I was working with real-life stats of some deadly virus in MATLAB

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:15 AM

#

Oh yea one more question

#

I don’t wanna make a new column for each event there is like guildMemberAdd, guildMemberRemove, messageUpdate, etc

#

Is there a way I can condense it down

#

Some people where talking about arrays and such

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:16 AM

#

What would you want to store in each column

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:16 AM

#

Well

#

For the logging events I’d like it to be a bool with the default being false

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:17 AM

#

logging events like sending it to a channel in a guild?

#

or logging it as in logging it to the console

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:17 AM

#

So people can do like -settings guildMemAdd true

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:17 AM

#

Ok

#

So here's the thing with that

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:17 AM

#

Ye guild channel

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:20 AM

#

It's not as many DB entries as you think.

Member Join/Leave Messages use two events but they both go to the same channel, so you only need a single memberLogs entry.
Moderation Logs use three events but they all go to the same channel, so you only need a single moderationLogs entry.
Message Logs use three events but they all go to the same channel, so you only need a single messageLogs entry.

#

And to see if those logs are enabled or not, just check if the entry is null

#

This is the Guild model for my Discord bot (it's in TypeORM not Sequelize, but you can understand what it means)```ts
import { Entity, BaseEntity, Column, PrimaryColumn } from "typeorm";
import { settings } from "../..";

@Entity()
export class Guild extends BaseEntity {

@PrimaryColumn({ type: "varchar", length: 20 })
id!: string;

@Column({ default: settings.prefix }) prefix!: string;

@Column({ type: "varchar", length: 20, nullable: true })
modLogs!: string;

@Column({ type: "varchar", length: 20, nullable: true })
memberLogs!: string;

@Column({ type: "varchar", length: 20, nullable: true })
messageLogs!: string;

@Column({ type: "varchar", length: 20, nullable: true })
autorole!: string;

}```

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

Uhm I kinda understand it but kinda not at the same time.

#

How does that allow the, to individually turn off or on the events they want?

#

Like say they want guildMemberAdd but not guildMemberRemove active

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:24 AM

#

Well turning on and off individual events is really rare

#

Most bots don't offer that feature (besides welcome/goodbye messages)

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:25 AM

#

I know a few bots that do

#

Dyno and logger does iirc

#

I just want to have it as an option in case people want it

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:26 AM

#

In that case, I'd just suggest having separate entries

#

It's good to make use of what's already provided, instead of trying to devise some home-brewed, half-baked solution

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:27 AM

#

Okay

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:30 AM

#

People who work on large libraries or open source software take their time with optimizing all their code for performance/efficiency, etc. Using what's already provided for you in such scenarios is usually really beneficial. Well that first part isn't so true of JavaScript libraries these days, but it still holds for large OSS projects like SQLite or Apache

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

So basically:

sequelize.define('guilds', {
guildMemAdd: {
type: sequelize.boolean,
defaultValue: false,
allowNull: false
},
//etc
})```

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

No I'd make it a string

#

and set allowNull to true

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

Why

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

string so u can store the channel ID

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:32 AM

#

Huh

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:32 AM

#

and if the string is null, that means the owner didn't enable the feature

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:32 AM

#

I’m already gonna have a log_channel entry

#

Uhm okay

#

Makes sense ig

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:32 AM

#

Why have two entries for the same feature, ya know

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:32 AM

#

🤷

#

I see how it can be beneficial

#

Allows them to if they want to have specific channels for the events

#

And what not

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

Yeah, that's already possible

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

Yea

#

I’ll have to edit my settings cmd then

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

Make it a nullable string:

if it's null, it's not enabled
if it's not null, it is enabled, and the value is the channel id

#

Two "features" with the same entry

lusty dew Sep 2, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

Actually

#

No I won’t have to change my settings cmd at all

#

Except for fixing the db thing

#

But everything else should work

#

Could I set the default value of it to a string

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:43 AM

Also sequelize looks so much cleaner then the db.prepare('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS guilds') thing

opaque eagle Sep 2, 2019, 8:53 AM

#

Yep

#

Also gonna go on one small rant

#

Also just as a heads up/life advice type thing... making sense out of languages/libraries you don't understand is a valuable skill.
You don't need to know the syntax, but you should still understand what that code does just by using context clues. For example, about that TypeORM code I showed earlier. You don't need to know everything about TypeORM and TypeScript to understand that that said, because there are tons of context clues there to help you. There was:

varchar (a common data type in SQL databases)
nullable ("able to be null")
modLogs/memberLogs/messageLogs which are common words in Discord Bot dev
Column which means what it says.

Here's the code again if you want to take another look at it:
https://github.com/SinistreCyborg/Penelope/blob/master/Internals/Models/Guild.ts

But anyways, that skill comes in really really handy... Real-life example:
Tons upon tons of devs look to Discord's official docs in their own code, but Discord's game SDK docs give code in C#... not all devs, however, use C#.

Here's an example from the Discord docs: https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/game-sdk/applications#getticket-example
Even in code as seemingly complex as that, you can see several context clues, like:

Discord.User which is a Discord User
timestamp wonder what could that be
ticket.Split('.') use what you know about String.split() in javascript
parts[0] == "2" woahhh isn't that just like js code??
Console.WriteLine("some string") sounds just like console.log() in js

How can I run two bot applications on the same code and same database? This is my config file:{ "prefix": "*", "token": "secret", "dbl": "secret" }

Would it be possible to have two different tokens to run two instances of the bot with the exact same code and database? (If anyone replies, please mention me in the response.)

slender thistle Sep 2, 2019, 10:14 AM

#

token1, token2 keys containing different values

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 10:19 AM

#

@earnest phoenix yes its perfectly possible

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 10:19 AM

#

Thanks, would I do it as shivaco mentioned above?

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 10:20 AM

#

you can do it in a million different ways

slender thistle Sep 2, 2019, 10:21 AM

#

Well, I suggested the way I use, at least mmulu

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 10:22 AM

#

we cant give you an answer just from you config file, we dont know how your code accesses your config file and how it logs into discord

#

and do you want to run two bots in the same process or in two separate processes?

#

also which library

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

"prefix": "*",
"token1": "secret", 
"token2": "secret", 
"dbl": "secret" 
}```~~This gives me an error:  "No token was provided." ~~ I see why.

two separate processes, discord.js master

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 10:27 AM

#

if its two separate process, just make two config files

#

but if you're running two instances of exactly the same code, then you need to detect which process was currently fired

#

for example, when running node, you can add arguments

#

node myfile.js argument here

#

then inside the code you can get the argument from process.argv

#

so basically when you run your bot you have to do node myfile.js bot1 then node myfile.js bot2 or something like that, and from inside the code you check which bot was run, and load the correct config file

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 10:32 AM

#

this is my sharding file```const { ShardingManager } = require('kurasuta');
const { join } = require('path');
const { token } = require("./config.json")
const { isMaster } = require('cluster');

const sharder = new ShardingManager(join(__dirname, 'index'), {
"token": token
"timeout": 240000
});

sharder.on('debug', message => {
console.log(message);
});

sharder.spawn();


i created `config1.json` and `config2.json`. how would i declare the constant here?  `const { token } = require("./config.json")`

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 10:34 AM

#

assuming you run your bot like this node myfile.js bot1 this is one of the possible ways ```js

const { token } = process.argv[2] === "bot1" ? require("./config1.json") : require("./config2.json")```

#

process.argv gives you an array of all arguments, like this ["node","myfile.js","bot1"]

#

so get the 3rd argument (index 2), and check if it contains "bot1" and load config one, else load config 2. this will always load config2 if you put anything else that is not "bot1" in the args

#

you can also make it like this

#

const { token } = require(`./${process.argv[2]}.json`)```

#

then you launch it using the config file as the arg: node myfile.js config1

#

this is probably a better way to do it than what i said before

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 10:46 AM

#

~~i see you mentioned index 2 but the file name is index - i want to use the same already existing files for both bot applications.

i also have no idea what i should put into the config files for the second method.~~

ah, i see, thank you

message.member can be null in stable

try fetching the author as a member in the server, then calling hasPermision

like message.guild.members.get(message.author.id)?

#

preferably <guild>.fetchMember()

#

as .get() relies on cache

#

so fetch member is better?

#

you could say that

#

ok

thank you ill try that

the fetch member takes a id?

UserResolvable

so it could be just message.author

ok

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 5:53 PM

it broken because either kurasuta has issues, or you are not using it correctly

the second option is more plausible

#

(although their docs are also not helping)

#

probably an issue with kurasuta because it was working for a long while, surely it cant just break out of nowhere

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 5:57 PM

it can, and many times it happens because the coder did not foresee a possibility

inner jewel Sep 2, 2019, 6:10 PM

#

sharding is having multiple connections to discord, each one handling part of your bots' guilds

#

setting up sharding depends on your library

#

you should read it's docs for that

rugged bramble Sep 2, 2019, 6:11 PM

#

the js docs have?

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 6:12 PM

#

yes, most libraries have sharding

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

Vysion, that's incorrect, guild channels do have the permissionsFor method

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

sharding is recommended at 1500 guilds and required at 2500

valid frigate Sep 2, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

no?

inner jewel Sep 2, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

personally, i'd recommend having sharding setup from the beginning

#

because rewriting most of your code to work with sharding when you're approaching 2500 guilds is a bad experience

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

@earnest phoenix your problem is probably this

#

📎 unknown.png

#

shards are loaded sequentially, meaning more shards take more time for the bot to completely load. you cant wait a fixed amount of time, because you risk the bot not being completely ready by that point, which is probably what happened as your bot grew

#

as you have access to client in that file, all the code that requires the bot to be ready should be placed inside a client.on("ready") event

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 6:19 PM

#

@valid frigate https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildChannel?scrollTo=permissionsFor

valid frigate Sep 2, 2019, 6:20 PM

#

oh wait this applies to guildchannel

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

a message channel (TextChannel) extends GuildChannel, so it will have that method

quartz kindle Sep 2, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

@earnest phoenix actually the problem is not exactly that, but its related to that

#

when you cluster your bot, clusters are also loaded sequentially, so one cluster become ready and fires the ready event before other clusters are ready

#

and you try to access data from clusters that are not ready yet

earnest phoenix Sep 2, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

so removing the delay and clusters would possibly fix the issue?

topaz sphinx Sep 2, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

@inner jewel overexaggerating a little? you dont really need to rewrite the whole code for sharding
