Hello guys if I host my music bot online musics are ending immediately am not getting any error can some one help me why it is
But if I play through my system its running good
fiery creek
Wait let me look again

it worked on my pc
fiery creek
So you install node-ous

Now it's working????
fiery creek
After hosting

It's ok no pblm.. plz don't voilate any rules
fiery creek
Okay I got your point what are the packages you are using,
inner sapphire
the ones i gave u in the link
inner sapphire
?
fiery creek
Bot s okay dude mine but the song if I choose it will end immediately
inner sapphire
npm install discord.js opusscript
npm install discord.js node-opus
Okay dude
quartz kindle
I told you not to install both lol...
The preferred audio engine is node-opus, as it performs significantly better than opusscript. When both are available, discord.js will automatically choose node-opus. Using opusscript is only recommended for development environments where node-opus is tough to get working. For production bots, using node-opus should be considered a necessity, especially if they're going to be running on multiple servers.
Read the docs

Thanks guys

Right, I am a really dumb person, and cannot see the problem I have made now:
res.json({status: "Success", members: g.members.array(), roles: g.roles.array(), emojis: g.emojis.array(), channels: g.channels.array()})
TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON
quartz kindle
Guess .array() doesnt remove circular references
Try .map(t => true)
Instead of .array()
Djs v12 has .toJson() as well, idk about v11
Another way to deal with circular references is to use util.inspect
amber fractal
There's some good modules that solve circular json

How hard is it to create a music bot?
scarlet phoenix
sudden geyser
Depends on your experience.
I've never created a music bot as I didn't want to bother, but I'd call it intermediate.
distant oar
I learned scripting yesterday and i already got a bot working with a few commands but i need a music bot
amber fractal
And?
mossy vine
if you started learning coding yesterday, you have a loooong way to go before making a music bot
amber fractal
That isnt a question
distant oar
but it was a bit more to my question above

if you dont know what you are doing, very hard

Depends on how you good you want it really
I would say getting videos and playing them isn't that difficult

Yep
I have just Copy / paste the token and that's all

You mean that I have to change this ?

No, that is correct
Its the token that is wrong
Make sure you copied and pasted it correctly, that there are no accidental changes after you pasted it, regenerate it and try copying it again

hi everyone i have some issue about ram usage im filtering lefted users from client.users and bots too why still i have almost 10k cached members and again why ram usage still increasing | please ping me if you have any clue
quartz kindle
because d.js caches everything
users, members, presence states, voice states, channels, roles, emojis
its not an easy feat to optimize djs but its certainly doable, i made a library that modifies djs and uses 50-60mb ram with 1600 guilds / 200k users (uncached), at the cost of losing some features

quartz kindle
there are ways, but they have side effects
for example, disabling role caching, will break all functions that check for permissions
disabling channel caching will break receiving and sending messages
so you need to deal with those effects accordingly

@earnest phoenix we are making queue belong to client, so that there is only one global queue
so everytime you need to access it, you have to get it from client
twilit rapids
I'm confused why the thing you said didn't work though
quartz kindle
so you should replace all your queue.something by client.queue.something

Okay good :)
twilit rapids

he probably tried doing ```js
client.queue = new Map();

broken shale
Anyone know how to get the text aligned
earnest phoenix
@slender thistle can you do a similar thing in js?
snow urchin
@earnest phoenix one of my friends managed to do it before, using that code
slender thistle
String.trim
earnest phoenix
@snow urchin a bot can't be in a dm group.... Don't try...
broken shale
Even if it's possible in stable, all user methods are going to be deprecated in master or when v12 comes out
broken shale
Does anyone know how to solve my issue
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix Yes more if it's paid and not so expensive
@earnest phoenix ???
Host
For my bot

earnest phoenix
Wait i will use a tranlate app 😓
slender thistle
Can't they use .trim to remove something from a string
quartz kindle
trim removes whitespaces
earnest phoenix
When I want to define a channel of logs on my bot I have to mark the name of it(the name of the channe)
But
I want to be able to mention it
Example:
logs set #logs
the mention will appear in it's format, not in the name of the channel
I am obliged to do
logs set logs
@earnest phoenix but it's possible to remove <#> after
With code
quartz kindle
just use a replace with a regex
earnest phoenix
What's the exact regex for replace <#>
quartz kindle
the one i sent
earnest phoenix
Okay thank you ^^
quartz kindle
\D matches all non-numbers
earnest phoenix
Okay good
quartz kindle
/g for global
earnest phoenix
Yes
quartz kindle
replace all matches with ""
quartz kindle
no...
earnest phoenix
Oh...
earnest phoenix
Oh okay sorry 
`var p = args[0].replace(/\D/g,"")
message.channel.send(p)`
Thank you very much
😊

@broken shale you're using a fixed height and a fixed line-height
your height is 70, while your line-height is 20
either make line-height equal to height, or use padding instead of both
opaque eagle
quartz kindle
you dont even need to define height, you can just use line-height or padding, and remove the height rule
you also dont need position:relative
snow urchin
rite so i have this db for prefixes, and same for log channels
prefix = await db.fetch(`db.prefix.${message.guild.id}`)
and the code to set prefix is simply
db.set(`db.prefix.${message.guild.id}`, args[0])
and it works fine cause I can use the prefix that i set just fine, then when I go to use it in my nodejs express file the same code as above to fetch the prefix, returns undefined, and I have NO IDEA why
app.get("/getInfoDASH", async function (req, res) {
let parts = url.parse(req.url, true);
let query = parts.query;
prefix = await db.fetch(`db.prefix.${query.guild_id}`)
Any idea wat am doing wrong?
earnest phoenix
I have this bit of code ```js
fs.readdir("./commands/", (err, files) => {
if (err) return console.error(err);
files.forEach(file => {
if (!file.endsWith(".js")) return;
let props = require(./commands/${file});
let commandName = file.split(".")[0];
console.log(Attempting to load command ${commandName});
client.commands.set(commandName, props);
});
});
fs.readdir("./events/", (err, files) => {
if (err) return console.error(err);
files.forEach(file => {
const event = require(./events/${file});
let eventName = file.split(".")[0];
client.on(eventName, event.bind(null, client));
});
});``` but it's spitting out Cannot find module './events/commands', it's supposed to look for files, not other folders, for example i'd have a guildMemberAdd.js in the ./events/ folder, not another folder
valid frigate
you cannot call ./events/commands because it doesn't end in a .js file, so node assumes you're trying to use a module from node_modules iirc
try using ./events/commands/cmd.js
earnest phoenix
wasn't exactly it, but you did make me realize that I needed an if (!file.endsWith(".js")) return; in the fs.readdir events section, thanks :)
brittle plover
@valid frigate requiring ./events/commands will either try to require ./events/commands/index.js or ./events/commands.js

@earnest phoenix JavaScript and Java are 2 very different things just so you know
earnest phoenix
um welp this shows I don't know very much about coding anyways here's the picture
quartz kindle
and your question is? lol
earnest phoenix
first off its not a valid link for invites
if its about the link
i think it is
it is
after the gg do a /
not a dot
ok but it just skips over the link also i put in the Slash
it's like it's not there
quartz kindle
do you have link preview disabled in your discord settings?
earnest phoenix
I'm on mobile so I don't know
but it does show another link when I do the command to show my bots invite link
quartz kindle
so other links work but that one doesnt? wtf
earnest phoenix
but the bots invite link is just on its own
I don't get why it doesn't do the server invite
eternal mesa
this is going to be a really stupid question. have you added that link in your code since restarting your bot
quartz kindle
make sure you save the file as well
eternal mesa
^
earnest phoenix
I made sure to save the file and I just restarted the bot and it still doesn't do the invite link
quartz kindle
check your streamer mode settings
earnest phoenix
I'm using discord mobile so I don't think it has streamer settings
earnest phoenix
I'm an idiot I added the link to a different command
quartz kindle
Lol
earnest phoenix
sorry for wasting your time

I wrote my script and copied my token in and everything, but when I go to run it I get
NameError: name '*****************************' is not defined
I'm using python and a bot template from the internet

bot templates are not usually right, https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ read here to get started

the script for the bot itself looks fine

NameError: name 'NjI4NzI4MTczNjIxODA1MDc2' is not defined``` is a bigger look at the error (I regenerated after I got the error so this token's no good for people look to steal 👀go reset your token
nvm
eternal mesa
Its a string
sudden geyser
strong 
search up python string.
eternal mesa
@sudden geyser shut your moth
sudden geyser
okay my mouth moth can no longer open
eternal mesa
Tnx
earnest phoenix
you think something before 147 is bad?
I found a page of python strings, not sure I follow what i need from it
OOOOOOOOOOhhh
I feel so dumb
I was missing the quotation marks
grim aspen
you shouldn't have to define the token
earnest phoenix
idk but i added quotation marks between the parenthesis and it worked
Says bots online
How do I add it to my server lol
eternal mesa
@earnest phoenix https://anidiots.guide/getting-started/getting-started-long-version#add-your-bot-to-a-server
a simple google works 
earnest phoenix
its ya boy with another question about the same code, js fs.readdir("./commands/", (err, files) => { if (err) return console.error(err); files.forEach(file => { if (!file.endsWith(".js")) return; let props = require(`./commands/${file}`); let commandName = file.split(".")[0]; client.commands.set(commandName, props); }); }); Basically, say I have multiple folders to categorize commands, like ./commands/moderation, and ./commands/informational, would I do another forEach kind of deal, similar to how all of the files are recieved in the ./commands/ but for folders, or is there a different way to go about this that would be better?
sick cloud
basically yeah add another
zealous veldt
Not really answering your question (sorry), but you might want to change if (!file.endsWith(".js")) return; to something that checks if the file is a directory
sick cloud
the logic is plain simple:
forEach folder in /commands
forEach command in /commands/-folder-
load command
zealous veldt
^ this
earnest phoenix
would there be an advantage to changing that bit of code up, like is it faster, less prone to failure or something, etc. @zealous veldt
zealous veldt
Well, there are nested directories, no?
zealous veldt
lol
tacit stag
2 questions: 1) Is there a way to have a bot output a link, but the link is shortened to some text, like "www.google.com" => "google"? 2) Is there a way to do something when a link is hovered, like show an image?
zealous veldt
You can use markdown inside of embeds to make text a link
but hovering is out of your control
tacit stag
ah ok. lemme see if i can find how to use markdown within discord.js
zealous veldt
It's not different for discord.js
discord text formatter is a markdown formatting engine
so if you send text with markdown, discord will handle it
tacit stag
I tried [url="https://somelink.com"]Link[/url], and <a href="https://somelink.com">Link</a>
Those didnt work
@zealous veldt
and in an embed using [https://google.com](Google), this did not work either
wait
tacit stag
ah ok. makes sense since the url would attempt to use the brackets
is there a way to create a non-static one? like so: `[${siteName}](${siteURL})`
I tried this, and it didn't work
@zealous veldt
sick cloud
thats because you have ` around it
cancelling it out
[`${name}`](${url})``` would workokay. lemme test
That didnt seem to work. Basically I am creating an embed, and heres the whole code line: javascript .addField("**Link:**", `[${site}](${url})`, true)
Even putting backticks on the inside didnt seem to work
I guess the next best thing is: javascript '[' + site + '](' + url + ')'
but that doesnt seem to work either
no that does
i misspelled something lol
sick cloud
show what the first one puts out
unreal junco
my reload command wont work
