How would I handle specific permissions errors in my command handler?

check for permissions before attempting to do it

I know
but like
how would I catch a permissions error and then send a message to the channel saying something like
I need ${permissionserror} permissions to be able to do that!

im not gonan argue

broken shale
¯_(ツ)_/¯
amber fractal
Also, make a check in your code so if bot.mutes isnt defined, make it
earnest phoenix
instead of getting triggered over the color, it would've been better to suggest to use a paste service to not clutter the chat with long error messages
amber fractal
or in your index file (or whatever you call it) define it where it wont be ran more than once
like right after you define bot

yes, in your bot's description

Now I gotta find out how to find out what css class I want to change

iirc someone made a repo of all classes dbl uses so you can overwrite them
i'll go hunt for it

I need it to have multiple permissions tho
not just manage_messages
how can I define multiple?
I need "Mange webhook" and "Manage channels" and "Manage messages and "Manage reactions" for it to fully function
ok I think i worked a solution.... just keep stacking it 😂, I mean its not the cleanest way but, whatever lol

I get margin and padding mixed up
Also that example is kinda confusing to me @earnest phoenix

basically it gets the last 100 messages

deletes all of iab's messages
but it doesn't just keep going until it deletes 100 of iab's messages

Do not ever let your bot respond to itself

It’d be in a continuous non stop loop until you turn your bot off

Is there an easy way to translate all text outputted by my bot to a language chosen by the server owner/admin
I was originally trying to make my own class extended onto TextChannel and make my own send function that’d translate the text for me but pretty sure that’d only translate text inside the send function and not text in the embed it’s sending
sudden geyser
You could do something like make a function which checks what language the server is set to, then pick from a collection of responses based on the lang.

Hello.
who knows discord.net here?
ask your question
i need know how to use a channel name instead of the channel id
await user.Guild.GetTextChannel(561572026486095902).SendMessageAsync($"User: {user.Mention} joined the official **{user.Guild.Name}** discord server!");
thats what i have right now.
Guild.TextChannels and use System.Linq's FirstOrDefault method
FirstOrDefault takes a lambda expression so you can pass in your condition there
earnest phoenix
What does this error mean (knowing that I do not know where and from which command it comes)

In the canvas module for node, you can use loadImage, then use drawImage

@sage bobcat it's not too hard once you get used to it, and it should be easier if you have any experience with other low level langs

you must chose a language and a library first, before you can find a tutorial, as tutorials are specifically made for a given language and library

do you know how to get the

if you do you can just use <Emoji>.id
i dont do d.js so i dont even know how you would get the emoji

ok so how would i go by making command line arguments
i know how i can take arguments but how do i basically parse it

@knotty steeple do you just have the command as a string?
because the easiest way would be to make flags
-r -f etc
but
that's like
shit
cuz then you wanna -rf
yeeeeeee

well i wanted to do like

because it wouldnt be hard to do what you are referring to like --r

make a prefix for the arguments and split on it

specifically xst
oh fuck
wrong channel
quartz kindle
"prefixSomecommand --option value --option2 value 2"
.split("--").slice(1) will give you ["option value","option2 value 2"]
then you can .map(t => {t.split(" ")[0]:t.split(" ")[1]})
and you get [{option:value},{option2:value}]
or instead of split(" ")[1] you can .split(" ").slice(1).join(" ") to keep spaces as well if you need several arguments with spaces
im tired and icba to use code blocks and explain better rn

I created a bot but it got declined cuz i was using botghost do i really need to code?
unique nimbus
Coding is preferable
I just looked at the website
You just flip a button and then you get the code without doing nothing?
quartz kindle
woah
unique nimbus
@quartz kindle bro I am like you Number 1 fan can I have you signature?
quartz kindle
lol wut
unique nimbus
omg
rugged patrol
Well i got bored doing codes and getting some technical issues with my bot
unique nimbus
Thats coding for you

that botghost thingy looks pretty amazing actually, its quite new as well
apparently its owned by some unknown dude on twitter with only 100 followers
lets see how it goes
twin kestrel
Hello everyone!
I have a small problem for a few days.
My bot makes use of shards and I have a presence that is updated from time to time, with a new random activity. My problem is that two of these activities are: the total number of users and the total number of servers, and they are not updated with the change of presence, that is, after 3 days it continues to dial the same number of users and same servers (despite having a larger number).
I use discord.js and I hope you can help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
quartz kindle
show your updating code
twin kestrel
setTimeout(function(){
const promises = [
client.shard.fetchClientValues('guilds.size'),
client.shard.broadcastEval('this.guilds.reduce((prev, guild) => prev + guild.memberCount, 0)'),
];
Promise.all(promises)
.then(results => {
const totalGuilds = results[0].reduce((prev, guildCount) => prev + guildCount, 0);
const totalMembers = results[1].reduce((prev, memberCount) => prev + memberCount, 0);
setInterval(() => {
let actividad = [
"nada :(",
`${totalMembers.toLocaleString()}` + " users",
"Shards " + `${client.shard.id}/${client.shard.count}`,
`${totalGuilds.toLocaleString()}` + " servers"
],
index = Math.floor(Math.random() * (actividad.length - 1) + 1);
client.user.setActivity(actividad[index], { type: "STREAMING"})
}, 15000);
})
}, 20000);```yes, you are caching the values
you get the values once and save them into promises then every time the interval runs, you reuse the saved value in promises
you have to fetch values and broadcast eval again on every interval
twin kestrel
Okay, I'll try
hollow prawn
i've noticed my bot once a day restartin mby up to 5 times about 4pm to 3am (can be any time inbetween) but no logs of what caused the restart in first place (e.g. crash and etc) is it safe to assume the issue isn't on my side?
quartz kindle
it probably is on your side
amber fractal
@quartz kindle botghost?
quartz kindle
ye look it up
hollow prawn
well pm2 doesn't technically say the bot restarted, however I get messages sent in the logging channel when it has ran the on "ready" event
unique nimbus
Some free hosts restarts the server daily
hollow prawn
no i use my rasp pi to host my bot
unique nimbus
oh
quartz kindle
the ready event is run again when the bot disconnects and reconnects
maybe network issues?
sinful lotus
@hollow prawn language?
quartz kindle
or is your rpi disconnecting and reconnecting
hollow prawn
the same tim is moderator for discord.js
amber fractal
Oh a bot maker
quartz kindle
wut
twin kestrel
It works, thank you very much! ^^
sinful lotus
if its node.js, do you know how to handle promises properly?
hollow prawn
well not moderator but profecient or w/e the role is xd
ig i'll have to see and get something to extend the wifi signal
sinful lotus
because it can be not your internet but the code
quartz kindle
you can enable discord.js's debugger to see if its really disconnecting
quartz kindle
client.on("debug", m => console.log(m))
hollow prawn
eh the code is on github u can check it if u want (can send link here if it ok)
alright i'll enable that too but not a console log, would send it to a channel for debugging
sinful lotus
should be fine
hollow prawn
btw the code should be relatively the same as the one i use, just some small changes here n there
quartz kindle
also, you said you send all logging to your logging channel, so have you actually checked the logs in the rpi? because when crashes happen, errors will not be sent to discord
sinful lotus
oh boi
this can crash anytime without logs lmao
your commands is async
so it means execute is a promise
hollow prawn
i have, thing is for the most cases no logging has been done, i run 2 bots on my rpi, later on one has had econnreset
hollow prawn
all promises should be resolved properly i think
sinful lotus
if that command errors, that will crash with no stack trace
hollow prawn
I always test commands before I upload them to the rpi files
quartz kindle
yes its not awaited
sinful lotus
yes but no code is bug free
hollow prawn
hey man i like my spaghetti with some bugs in it 
sinful lotus
i'd recommend making it all async so it would be fluent tbh
hollow prawn
shouldn't I use async only when necessary tho
quartz kindle
you can mix sync with async by using Promise.resolve()
sinful lotus
yes just make sure your command handler execute is awaited
hollow prawn
oh yeah I am
sinful lotus
and thats the same of making all your commands an async function
so its your choice
hollow prawn
except for some which are "fire and forget" promises as i've been told in d.js server
sinful lotus
for fire and forget instead of await, just put .catch()
quartz kindle
you dont fire and forget promisses without catching them
sinful lotus
.catch(() => null) is what I do for those
hollow prawn
I'm adding catch wherever possible
hollow prawn
hmm why not ?
sinful lotus
you can accidentally not know an error that causes you not knowing what to debug
hollow prawn
oh so it'd be better to have it on necessary parts of the code
quartz kindle
generally you would probably want .catch(console.log), if errors happen you can see them, but it wont stop the rest of your code
sinful lotus
yes for example cmd.execute would be better awaited so try catch can deal with error
instead of .catch
hollow prawn
well so far no crashes done because of the code itself and as i said I test everything by running the bot instance on my pc before I upload it to the rpi
and do as much as possible testing to deal with any issues that may occur
sinful lotus
dont expect the public is same on private
not because it dont on private, it will dont on pu lic as well
not because it works on you, it will work on everyone
other people will try to break your bot
hollow prawn
if they do i'll find out what's the issue from and solve it asap
sinful lotus
my experience on developing, and my own view on it is always expect the unexpected
hollow prawn
but they can't break my bot if I try to break it myself 
sinful lotus
also I already mentioned one of your issues
your promises are so and so
handle it all
hollow prawn
that p much stands for everything, yee i'll run over the promises again and try to handle em all
sinful lotus
quick tip, async functions automatically returns a promise
hollow prawn
they do ? that something I didn't knew
sinful lotus
async function owo() { console.log('owo') };
console.log(owo())
that will return promise pending
modern elm
owo
sinful lotus
same on const stuff = async () => {}
hollow prawn
ah ic alrighty thanks
that's weird tho, it send the message "hi" but also promise pending
sinful lotus
because js is single thread
on that event loop, that promise is pending
then on next loop it will be resolved
or next next
or next x3
modern elm
Mucho logic
hollow prawn
ah i think i get it, well anyway thanks i'll be headin to the store atm then will check the promises
keen stream
hi, have you any way to give rewards when user vote on the website ?
(i use discord.js)
you can mention me 🙂
unique nimbus
I know some bots rewards are currency for their economy and they made some commands vote-locked
keen stream
can i detect vote on discordbot.org ?
mental solstice
there is documentation on setting up webhook listener for JS
grim aspen
hollow prawn
help should I be worried about this?
devout chasm
about what
hollow prawn
actually this might be the issue why my bot was restarting
the console output u see above in the image
devout chasm
am i missing something? I don't see something wrong
hollow prawn
well for example, before it wasn't doing that but nvm I got why it's happening its because what @quartz kindle told me to do
https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/620946293614706709
so nvm
devout chasm
erm
hollow prawn
i kinda forgot I added that part 
and ended up panicking for nothing thinking I may be doing discord api abuse lol
knotty steeple
@quartz kindle also the code returns undefined
quartz kindle
which code?
thats the normal debug log, if anything goes wrong with the connection, it will show there
like disconnects/reconnects/etc
heartbeats are normal
if you're confident the issue is not network-related, you can disable the debugger
knotty steeple
process.argv.slice(2).join(" ").split("--").map(t => {t.split(" ").filter(Boolean)})
E
grim aspen
is boolean defined?
quartz kindle
i mean
if you're using that on node args
since they are already an array
why not just use them?
node args split on spaces, do you need arguments that contain spaces in them?
knotty steeple
yes
quartz kindle
so like ``node file.js --arg some value here --otherarg`
knotty steeple
yes
quartz kindle
split("--") still requires a slice, else the first item is an empty string
so .split("--").slice(1)
then inside the map you have to again slice the first item
.map(t => t.split(" ").slice(1))
that should give you ["some value here ",""]
since the second arg doesnt have any value
to remove the trailing space you can add .trim() to t before splitting
and to get the key, take the first item before you slice it
t.split(" ")[0]
sinful lotus
@hollow prawn that has nothing to do with crashes as far as I can see
hollow prawn
yee i got it, its the debugging so i'll let it run and see where the issue comes from
sinful lotus
if its improper unhandled.promise 100% chances you wont see anything on that
your choice tho
hollow prawn
well it seems good so far tbh none of the issues/crashes were caused by running a command or a event

Any ideea how I can create backups of discord server in a mysql db?
topaz fjord
or just pipe the output from the shell to a code block
Backups of a discord server
God damn

you could save the permissions for each channel and the channel structure, etc, into an obj, that you could save in a db

Was there recently any changes to discord.js that changed guild icon class? Just wondering since I had it in a embed but now it gives incalid url format error, worked fine before
west spoke
it shouldnt have
earnest phoenix
Ok
dusky mist
usuario.splice(usuario.indexOf(posicion), 1);
} ```
Why it doesn't work?Im spanish so the variables are in spanish
small latch
Pass the variable to the function and return result of usurio.splice.
dusky mist
Ok ty its working now

Alright.

Which is the difference of parseFloat and parseInt? i always forgot it xD
late hill
I guess mainly that parseInt does integers meaning that it'll ignore decimals
2.9 for example would just become 2

const m = await channel.messages.find({ around: message, limit: 1 }).then(res => res.first());
(where channel is a textchannel and message is a snowflake)
this causes d.js to return TypeError: fn is not a function (because commando) but not leave behind a stack
and i don't understand why
amber fractal
If you comment that out does it work?
Because that doesnt describe the error you gave us, unless it's something internally in d.js
Which is a possibility
torpid juniper
well it's a
necessity for the command to work
this is why i use eris because you don't get vague errors like this and you always get stacks
amber fractal
Yeah, but that might not bethe cause of the error
amber fractal
A stack trace isnt something given out by d.js 
it's js
amber fractal
Oh
amber fractal
Well that makes more sense
torpid juniper
makes d.js a bit more bearable
torpid juniper
ok ive just
changed it
await channel.messages.find(message) makes it shorter code
and does exactly what i want
it is most certainly that line that causes the error
figured it out
i was using find instead of fetch
and because commando eats stacktraces for breakfast i had to manually log it
to realise it was using map and not messagestore
mossy vine
eats stacktraces for breakfast
lol
amber fractal
Commando uses d.js stable ye
Was looking through commando code trying to find the error
earnest phoenix
Does anyone know of a way to make it so that caps don't matter. Basically I have a prefix that's "yo " but if someone does "Yo " it won't work any way to just remove the whole caps issue? Discord.js
tolowercase or touppercase the original string
quasi forge
In case of commando, it handles it itself

wooden lance
Does anyone know how I can send console to a channel ID? I'm running discordjs on node.
winged ermine
Is it possible to use chart.js with a discord bot?
scarlet phoenix
@wooden lance I just wrote my own logger that does some stuff like that.
1 Determines log level (Error, warning, info, etc)
2 Sends it to graylog
3 Sends it to discord log channels based on level
4 Prints to console based on level
Then just make one for each class and use it for all of your logging needs. Works pretty well
wooden lance
Oh, okay! Thanks!
@scarlet phoenix came up with a good idea, using webhooks now. Here's the code if you want to use it.
const util = require('util');
const consoleHook = new Discord.WebhookClient("<webhook-id>", "<webhook-secret>");
console.log = function(d) {
consoleHook.send(`${util.format(d)}`);
};

Hello, I'm trying to register a bot on the bot list, but I'm encountering the following error:
Unable to fetch application. Make sure you've provided the correct Client ID and that the application has a bot account.
What should I do?
scarlet phoenix
Double check that your clientId Is your bots id
knotty steeple
so how would i go by turning an array into an object
i tried searching for solutions but its not really want i want
scarlet phoenix
Completely depends on language, and what you even mean by that. A lot of languages treat arrays similarly to objects already
knotty steeple
[["thing", "thingie"], ["think", "thonk", "omegathonk"]]
into
{
"thing": "thingie",
"think": "thonk omegathonk"
}```js btw
jaunty folio
Ok
scarlet phoenix
So you want an array of arrays -> Json?
heady salmon
Hi guys, I'm having some weird indentation issue.
from .roleplay import Actions
File "/home/olly/bot/cogs/roleplay.py", line 171
return error
^
IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level```Double checked my client ID, both from the Discord dev panel and by right clicking the bot > copy ID, still not working
west spoke
@heady salmon dont use [tab] fill it In with spaces
I hate it, but python is a jerk about indents
amber fractal
@knotty steeple you can use a for loop, or you can use reduce
There may be some other ways but that's what I know
This took too long to type, is this what you want?
amber fractal
With a loop, you just make an empty object, loop the array and set obj[arr[i][0]] = arr[i][1] where i is your index
heady salmon
@west spoke I just used a check for NSFW channels in the end
amber fractal
That above example uses reduce
heady salmon
I literally facepalmed when I found it in the discord.py docs
amber fractal
Make the call yourself
sick cloud
install discord.js alongside and make a complex api to check nsfw channels for you
amber fractal
sick cloud
or move to rewrite
amber fractal
@knotty steeple did you need any other help or did you get it?
knotty steeple
im looking at how array.reduce works
amber fractal
Ah
cedar shoal
knotty steeple
so just doing this works ```js
let a = [["walk", "it"], ["like", "i"], ["talk", "it"]]
let obj = {}
for(let i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
obj[a[i][0]] = a[i][1]
}
console.log(obj)
Yes
amber fractal
Which was the other thing I meant with loops
knotty steeple
im doing this for a very specific reason
ok so i applied this to my cli
works perfectly
😩 👌
amber fractal
👌
short ocean
Ok. Basically everythinf is good just bot desnt respond so im guessing its not good
This is just a test command bye
Btw*
Ping me on responses
knotty steeple
what does that mean
earnest phoenix
So im trying to do the tolowercase how would it work in this
amber fractal
@earnest phoenix what?
earnest phoenix
hold on
so basicly
i have a message.startswith
if (!message.startsWith.toLowerCase(prefix, prefix2)) return;
and Were do I put the toLowerCase
its not wrking
amber fractal
Uh
message is an object unless you redefined it
message.content is a string
Or null
So is your message a <Message>.content?
amber fractal
It's a function
earnest phoenix
ik
amber fractal
Dont forget the ()
earnest phoenix
wdym
amber fractal
toLowerCase()
earnest phoenix
can you edit this line
if (!message.content.toLowerCase.startsWith(prefix)) return;
like were it is
amber fractal

dlpercent(gotten, r.headers._headers["content-length"])

TypeError: Cannot read property 'content-length' of undefined
i dont get why this is happening because it was working mostly
async function download(url, path) {
const res = await fetch(url);
let r = await fetch(url, {

})
const fileStream = fs.createWriteStream(path);
await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {

res.body.pipe(fileStream);
res.body.on("error", (err) => {

function dlpercent(gotten, size) {
const progress = (gotten * 100) / size;

this is a function that is supposed to download a file from the url to a path
or did e6 api change
the function to download itself works but r.headers._headers
is just undefined
for some reason
am i dum

is headers an object

yes
