is there a way to set background image with a link
using canvas constructor ?
atm i can only set Images using path const image = await fsn.readFile('./profile/profile.png');
quartz kindle
you need to download the image
quartz kindle
you can use node's http, or a package like node-fetch and request
lunar narwhal
Have you considered swapping to html and then using a headless browser to render the image?
quartz kindle
you dont need a headless browser, you can download it directly into node's memory
lunar narwhal
oh thats not what I meant
I mean bail on canvas entirely
and just write your stuff in html
and then use a headless browser to render that to whatever format you need
quartz kindle
isnt that like, adding a whole new layer of complexity for something very simple?
lunar narwhal
hmm depends
but yea if It can be done in canvas then its better
- i feel like people are more comfortable writing html than drawing in canvas
quartz kindle
so you'd rather write an html element, style it with css, add an img element with a remote url, then snapshot the rendered page, and return it to node?
lunar narwhal
yea ...
maybe I just suck at using canvas lmao
but i feel like I can do much more using css idk
quartz kindle
lmao
canvas can do a lot more than css, but yes, its harder to use
its worth the effort to learn it tho
my bot uses it to generate complex images from user data
so i had to learn it pretty well
lunar narwhal
my bot does something similar so I'll look into it
quartz kindle
can you show a sample image?
lunar narwhal
lmao true
amber fractal
Faker is more washed up
lunar narwhal
I dont think faker plays team fight tactics Kappa
quartz kindle
so washed up that he just won another lck title, also this should probably move to #memes-and-media

edgy orchid
It sends it multiple times, and when I write to the bot it sends it once again but only one time...
help
quartz kindle
dont use sendMessage
also, that message shouldnt even send
you make the entire message lower case, then you check if it starts with prefix+"Rules" which contains an uppercase
you made msg a global variable
its being interfered with other messages all the time
edgy orchid
I just took and wrote rules really fast bc what it actually send is another thingy
hidden cargo
@quartz kindle But if it works for me, what could be wrong then.
hidden cargo
ok
topaz fjord
using send is recommended
quartz kindle
@hidden cargo your problem is that you made msg a global variable
hidden cargo
In what version does it stop working? @topaz fjord , @quartz kindle But it WORKS for me...
hidden cargo
ok
quartz kindle
just because it works, doesnt mean you should use it
and even then, why use two different ones?
hidden cargo
ok, bc I did, and I asked what the problem was by making msg a global variable...
quartz kindle
the problem is that on every single message you get, they turn msg into something different
hidden cargo
Can you give an example?
topaz fjord
Using "But it WORKS for me" as an excuse it just dumb
quartz kindle
person 1 uses command: msg becomes what person1 said
person2 uses command: msg becomes what person2 said
if person1's command did not complete yet, person1's msg is now what person2 said
hidden cargo
yes @topaz fjord, but it felt like he missed that I said it works... for me atleast. @quartz kindle Soo you say that person 2's command is what person 1 used if it isn't done when he writes it?
quartz kindle
the opposite
a global variable only exists once, if you have multiple people using commands at the same time, they will keep changing each other's variable
hidden cargo
ok, are gonna test that now

Indentifier 'client' has already been declared<<
hidden cargo
meaning? @quartz kindle what should I change it too
edgy orchid
asd
edgy orchid
nice changed name on us ;D
hidden cargo
so "var msg = message.content.toLowerCase();"?
topaz fjord
@restive light do you set ```js
const client = ...
yes
quartz kindle
for example yes, but i'd recommend using const or let
var is very old and has some issues
restive light
const client = new Discord.Client();
topaz fjord
no I mean anywhere else than that
topaz fjord
Is that all the code
restive light
yes

so like this ??

You misspelled require in require("quick.db")
opaque eagle
Also what Steven said
earnest phoenix
mute?
Besides that
why is the tag undefined
since I fetched the users
are you sure
also it could be that the user left the guild
didn't i already tell you to use fetchUser
and you didn't know how to implement it because you don't know how to work with promises
topaz fjord
does the db object have the property .tag

Hey, how its named: That you drop images and they go on your server like YOURDOMAIN.COM/img/01 and you can access them by the link?
topaz fjord
an image server?
amber fractal
like this? https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/pqdyvi_1191.png
earnest phoenix
Yes @amber fractal
Or this
a CDN
Yes, but...?
what
How
how what
i can't read your mind
How do you create it?
I mean...
If I have an VPS
Can I create an own one in html, js?
buy a vps, buy a domain, link domain dns with vps, put images on your vps, place a webserver (nginx or apache or whatever you prefer) on your vps to serve image content
@earnest phoenix I got it linked
topaz fjord
just send image data back when you request the url
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix but I wanna create an thing that if I upload an image it goes to the server
And gives me an link
opaque eagle
Quick google search got me here: https://github.com/JoeGandy/ShareX-Custom-Upload
earnest phoenix
an actual uploader or a server for sharex?
opaque eagle
I think it's an actual uploader
earnest phoenix
Ok thanls
Thanks
i don't even want to bother with explaining on how to do that because chances are they wont understand half of it

it's slightly more dark

change 'RANDOM' to that color

because no side bar, guess it's just the same color of the embed tho :P
Lol but on light mode that looks dumb
but who uses that
broken shale
yep that's the downside
amber fractal
topaz fjord
no code
inner jewel
lusty dew
It is gonna be null
I already know this
I cleared the db before testing it
And checked what res was already
inner jewel
https://i-was-scammed-by.dabbot.org/9573QoE.png res is never null
at least on that if
lusty dew
How so?
amber fractal
you already used res
topaz fjord
it may return an empty object
lusty dew
Isn’t empty the same thing as saying null though?
topaz fjord
no
lusty dew
Smh really.
inner jewel
also use Date.now() instead of message.createdTimestamp
inner jewel
also
remain = daily_tstamp + daily_cd - message.createdTimestamp
1- don't use global values
2- if daily_tstamp or daily_cd are undefined it'll send the 00 message
lusty dew
Okay...
topaz fjord
constructive criticism is an unintended side effect of asking for help
topaz fjord
also
lusty dew
if(eco.length && user.length === 0){...}
topaz fjord
wouldn't ```js
User.update({balance: 25}, {where: {user_id: message.author.id, guild_id: message.guild.id}})
just check res.length
lusty dew
But I have two things
topaz fjord
and if its zero execute the code in the iff statement
lusty dew
User and Economy
And I need both to not be empty objects
So if they are I create them
Ah I can use the increment method
Duh.
lusty dew
Hm?
No
await user.increment('balance', {by: 25})
You can tell it how much to increment by
I think I did that right kek
@topaz fjord it does return null though
amber fractal
uh
but you already used res
so it wouldnt matter what it was at the if
you used it twice
so it would error before it ever reached the if
lusty dew
Yea.
I’m trying to fix that
I got the create entry for the tables down
Now I need to fix that

pymongo: when attempting to connect to database with pymongo.MongoClient(url), returns error: The DNS operation timed out after 20 seconds
pings are welcome.
unique wagon
what db are u using
unique wagon
Thought so, And is it on the same device?
robust acorn
mongodb is a web database and does not require any installations.
I tried putting incorrect passwords and it returns same error.
prob another thing causing error?
unique wagon
Hmmm not from my experiences.
robust acorn
It works fine on pc, but does not work on mobile (with python installed)
unique wagon
I mean yes mongodb is a web database, but I am sure to use pymongo u need software
oh....
hmmm...
Mobile, you mean android?
unique wagon
Hmm.......
robust acorn
its not my wifi, its pretty fast
unique wagon
yes but is it connected?
robust acorn
network is good, I even tried using vpns like 8.8.8.8
it is connected
not a wifi issue.
valid frigate
8.8.8.8 isnt a vpn
robust acorn
the google one
unique wagon
And DNS is network related.

whatever its called
valid frigate
yes google dns

Ok that is strange. Two seconds.
robust acorn
ok
unique wagon
Have you messed around with any DNS settings?
robust acorn
on the phone?
nope
its using the default DHCP connection
I whitelisted all ips..
unique wagon
One person said they had the same problem with the ip 8.8.8.8
robust acorn
it has to do with the string or connection... i dont see anything wrong..
unique wagon
Is that related?
robust acorn
I mean I tried like 100 times without dns, and I tried using dns which didnt work either
unique wagon
I can only thing of ur vpn.
- think
A DNS timeout is probably the result of a networking issue. It could either be transient ( just a passing thing ) or either your machine running the code needs a configuration check that DNS protocols are allowed, or the Atlas instance is not running. Please also ensure you added your client application host address to the whitelist of allowed Atlas clients, or similarly allowed access from that machine. – Neil Lunn
valid frigate
you're sure the password is correct
robust acorn
yes
valid frigate
ok
robust acorn
the user is also correct
valid frigate
assuming it's just on your phone
id try turning off anything that changes your dns, etc
valid frigate
interesting
unique wagon
Yes it is,
robust acorn
ikr, ive been trying to get this to work for like hours
unique wagon
hmm, do you have another phoneto test it on without vpn?
robust acorn
not that its avaiable...
my phone doesnt have vpn
I even tried using mobile data to connect
wait, let me try something
nope
didnt work
I tried using 3 wifi networks
no vpns set up

it works on my pc so...

this format works on my pc so there shouldnt be any reason not to work on another device...
@unique wagon, is the formatting right? is there an alternate?
unique wagon
oof
unique wagon
I am not sure, maybe someone will work out a solution, I'll keep looking but maybe try researching the problem?

I tried researching for a long time, none of the solutions worked...

Dragging a file to your browser triggers a redirect so maybe you could catch the redirect, use regex to check if the location is a filename and if so cancel the redirect and upload the file? I’ve never looked into it so I may be way off but that’d be my first instinct @earnest phoenix

it will return the promise coming from .send
either put the message.channel.send on a new line, or put a semicolon after return
rugged bramble
still don't return
rugged bramble
why?

Is the value 0
Or NaN/undefined
Because NaN < 25 would be false
If it is actually 0 then that part of code probably isn't being executed
Which we can't help you with unless you provide more of your code
Try logging money right above that line

basically if money is a number, it will check the money if its less than 25
if its not a number then instant return

maybe i'll try to develop myself

I've already looked at this.

You don't have to spam the same message

- you might get either muted or kicked for spamming idk

How can I make a reload command?
Like if I do:
-reload eventName
Or
-reload commandName
It’d reload the command or event specified
quartz kindle
unpopular opinion: pm2 is a piece of shit jesus effin christ
dusky geode
That is unpopular
mossy vine
@quartz kindle other times i see you talking about how great pm2 is, what happened lol
quartz kindle
its great for simple things, but once you want to interact with its api and do shit with it, then oh my god
like
pm2 has cluster mode, and vancy funcions for scaling, like pm scale process +1 to add a new instance
except the scaling doesnt update process.env, not even in the new process
so then you have x processes running an outdated process.env that shows the old process count
and my lib requires knowing how many processes are running lol
process 1: instance 0, processes 2;
process 2: instance 1, processes 2;
scale +1;
process 1: instance 2, processes 2;
process 2: instance 2, processes 2;
process 3: instance 2, processes 2;```like wtf
lusty dew
Were you talking to me?
quartz kindle
no lol
quartz kindle
reloading a command is easy, if you use separate files for each command

Anyone need js help?

if someone needs help they'll ask

what do when your bot restarts but doesn't have any crash errors/issues
lusty dew
@quartz kindle I got that part done I think
Now I’m just trying to figure out how to tell if I’m reloading a command or an event
lusty dew
if(client.settings.bot_dev.includes(message.author.id)) {
const input = args[0]
switch(input){
case 'Event'.toLowerCase():
try{
delete require.cache[require.resolve(`../events/${args[1]}.js`)]
message.channel.send(`Sucessfully reloaded event: ${args[1]}`)
}catch (err) {
message.channel.send(`Unable to reload: ${args[1]}`)
}
case 'Command'.toLowerCase():
try{
delete require.cache[require.resolve(`./${args[1]}.js`)]
message.channel.send(`Sucessfully reloaded: ${args[1]}`)
}catch (err){
message.channel.send(`Unable to reload: ${args[1]}`)
}
}
Any idea why this
Sends both and doesn’t reload the event specified
mossy vine
because it fails, but also runs the send
try {
delete
} catch {
send 'error'
}
send 'success'
lusty dew
Ah okay
Okay well it says it successfully reloaded the event but it didn’t output the change I made in the file when I made the event run
inner jewel
did you re-require it?
shut rose
how can I make a bot that makes an animated channel
?
earnest phoenix
what
bright hearth
Joe do I hire bot
earnest phoenix
lusty dew
@inner jewel wdym?
shut rose
Can I pass a server so you understand what I say?
earnest phoenix
no
i already told you that you don't create ""animated channels""
it's API abuse
shut rose
okay
lusty dew
Hey cry is that discord or some other platform in the ss?
earnest phoenix
discord
lusty dew
Canary?
shut rose
and that the state changes every time?
earnest phoenix
stable with beautifuldiscord
earnest phoenix
what
lusty dew
Oh cool
shut rose
a okay but the api abuse is reportable
can you report me for api abuse, i'm new to this
earnest phoenix
yes
earnest phoenix
earnest phoenix
well
no
each endpoint has it's own ratelimits
the endpoint to change your presence is generally set at x requests/y seconds
shut rose
I have not understood very well because I speak little English
earnest phoenix
so people calculate the minimum amount that's allowed before you get ratelimited
shut rose
I have not understood everything very well
earnest phoenix
ok
modern elm
@shut rose Yo hablo espanol 
shut rose
esque necessito ayuda
modern elm
que no entiendes
shut rose
porque quiero hacer un bot que canvie el nombre de un canal cada unos ms
modern elm
ah
shut rose
y me han dicho que eso es api abuse
shut rose
que tienen que ser 15k ms
modern elm
es pidiendo mucho informacion cada uno ms y eso crea lag
y te pueden banear de discord para cosas asi
porque es considerado como
"DDoS"
shut rose
aaa
modern elm
:(
modern elm
sip
shut rose
y que veas claramente de lo que hablo
earnest phoenix
you're providing false information
it isn't considered as a ddos
that's not even what a ddos is

*Btw for anyone who can help me with my reload command this is my cmd & event handler and if needed I’ll resend my reload cmd code*With my code or his?
knotty steeple
@lusty dew
modern elm
oh :(
lusty dew
Mk
Well it’s not reloading the event or cmd properly
It says it has but ofc it hasn’t outputted the new changes
modern elm
For anyone who can help:
I have a test help command that uses reactions to navigate through it, but the inly thing working atm is deleting the message, im not able to remove reactions or edit the message it would seem...
Link to code:
https://pastebin.com/RK9MGZbM
No Errors.
earnest phoenix
else if (message.content.toLowerCase === 'fuck'){
message.delete(1000)
message.channel.send(`Please watch your language, ${message.author}`)
}```why wont this command work
knotty steeple
what about it doesnt work
Just saying "I get an error" doesn't give us enough information on your problem
earnest phoenix
the bot does not reply to it
or deete the message
it just doesnt do what it is supposed to
because you're using toLowerCase as a property, not a function
oh
how do i fix that
earnest phoenix
you should probably backtrack and learn js first
im sorry.. im a beginner
else if (message.content.toLowerCase() === 'fuck'){ like this?
idle basalt
yes like that
earnest phoenix
thanks. finally a nice person 🙂
yep that looks good
else if (message.content.toLowerCase() === 'fuck'){
message.delete(1000)
message.channel.send(`Please watch your language, ${message.author}`)
}
else if (message.content.toLowerCase() === 'shit'){
message.delete(1000)
message.channel.send(`Please watch your language, ${message.author}`)
}```it only works if message starts with it
also you can get syntax highlighting if you write ```<language>
code
```
idle basalt
that problem originates from a different part of your code
earnest phoenix
so like ```csharp
bool e() {return false;}
```
would look like
bool e() {return false;}
btw a cool trick is ['word1, 'word2'].includes(message.content.toLowerCase() so you can just make an array of words instead of a ton of repeated code
idle basalt
if (['word1', 'word2'].includes(message.content.toLowerCase())){
message.delete(1000)
message.channel.send(`Please watch your language, ${message.author}`)
}```would look like thisand you just add words to the array instead of making a new else if every time
not to discourage you or anything, but youd need a much more sophisticated system to implement a strong chat filter
earnest phoenix
also, before you waste too much time, word filters are useless and you shouldn't spend your time and effort on them
they'll always be bypassed no matter how hard you try
idle basalt
i just said that but in a nice way 🌚
lusty dew
Wasn’t there always limitations with making swear filters because people could bypass it numerous ways?
idle basalt
ye its way too easy to get around them
lusty dew
I’ve only thought of a few ways out of the many problems there are
idle basalt
you can use an overcomplicated regex to match different joiner chars
its just too much effort for a negligible reward though
basic chat filter is enough for most people
earnest phoenix
['fuck', 'shit'].includes(message.content.toLowerCase() {
message.delete(1000)
message.channel.send(`Please watch your language, ${message.author}`)
}```it says it is a property
idle basalt
if (...)
lusty dew
- Delete spaces when reading the content (if possible) so they can’t do F U C K to bypass it
- When the bot reads the content make it all lowercase with toLowerCase() (if possible)
idle basalt
np youre new youll learn all this stuff
cant just delete spaces because what if their sentence is something like "i went to the car wash it was great"
that would ban sh it from wash it
youd need to check if there are letters around
earnest phoenix
else if (['fuck', 'shit'].includes(message.content.toLowerCase() {
message.delete(1000)
message.channel.send(`Please watch your language, ${message.author}`)
}```you forgot two closing parens
lusty dew
I mean washit isn’t a word though?
lusty dew
Eh true
idle basalt
if you delete all the spaces youd be left with giant strings
i assume youd look for the "bad words" within it
lusty dew
True.
earnest phoenix
where is closing parens
lusty dew
That’s true.
lusty dew
Didn’t think that far ahead 😂
idle basalt
you forgot to close includes( and if (
so youre missing two parenthesis after toLowerCase()
install this tool called a linter. it will help you find syntax errors like these
idle basalt
yea
earnest phoenix
linter is taking a long time to download
lusty dew
Yea
idle basalt
its a complicated program
lusty dew
Sometimes they do
idle basalt
it has to read all of your code and search for all kinds of errors
earnest phoenix
what does linter do
idle basalt
now im worried that you just installed some random shit called "linter"
lusty dew
Helps you point out erroring lines
idle basalt
lusty dew
That actually helps you setup eslint didn’t know that
earnest phoenix
best case scenario is that there'll be 1,114,112^1990 ways to bypass the word filter
idle basalt
djs.guide is op
lusty dew
I used another source
idle basalt
i cant even remember what i used
earnest phoenix
no i did npm install eslint
earnest phoenix
sorry english is not my first language
lusty dew
It took mine 2-3 minutes to install
earnest phoenix
ok. linter is installed what now
lusty dew
Though I had shitty internet
idle basalt
read the thing i linked like 3 times now haha
lusty dew
Read the guide
earnest phoenix
ok
lusty dew
It will help you setup the things you need
Okay now to go finish the billion things I need to do to finally push my new update
😂
earnest phoenix
so i just did the maths
this is the amount of ways that can be used to bypass a word filter on discord
on a best case scenario
lusty dew
Uhm
earnest phoenix
that number could be doubled with three letter words
lusty dew
That’s a lot of numbers
earnest phoenix
yeah
earnest phoenix
unicode has a possible 1,114,112 characters, power that by an estimate of the character limit
most calculators will overflow on that because it's so huge
earnest phoenix
it's why making a word filter on discord is useless
idle basalt
there is
lusty dew
idle basalt
some bots have that
lusty dew
Really
earnest phoenix
im just going to fix it later
it's reasonable for example in minecraft as the charset is limited and the character limit is 256
idle basalt
i think most of the apis are paid though
lusty dew
Not like I want to add it to my bot cause it’s basically pure nsfw
idle basalt
you can always make your own image recognition tool
lusty dew
But it was just a thought
idle basalt
but yes that kind of thing does exist
earnest phoenix
making your own recognition tool by yourself would take ages
even if you used an AI service like tensorflow
idle basalt
