@earnest phoenix is it in your ready event?

Console.log prefix and make sure it’s just that string not an object

green kestrel Oct 10, 2019, 12:02 PM

@sage bobcat thats because $prefix is an object, not a scalar

depends on what you want to copyright

you legally can't copyright an embed because, well, it's discord's property

Everything you put on discord they can use however they want

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 1:37 PM

it may be your code which is making the embed, which belongs to you, but you have no rights to send an embed with your copyright identifier because you're using their services

#

and then you buy discord

how do i save one exact variable in my bot hosted on glitch, named 'ldaypurge' with anything inside it

buy discord for 3 billion just to be able to put a copyright sign 😎

What port range should I use for the express servers on each shard? Like each one would have its own port obviously I was thinking just like basePort + shardNumber but idk what is like the standard to do this if there is any

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 2:29 PM

#

port + shard # sounds like the best way to do it imo

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:31 PM

#

I’m asking for the base port tho

#

Like what’s the standard? I’m looking at my port list and it doesn’t seem like there’s anything in 70000 but idk

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 2:33 PM

#

I dont use express so I'm not sure exactly what you want does express have some sort of required base port?

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:36 PM

#

why do you need a server on each shard?

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:38 PM

#

Communication for stats along with status etc

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 2:39 PM

#

you can have a single server for that

#

one process acts like a websocket server, everything else as a client

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:43 PM

#

Nikki said it’s a good idea for health checks and things like that

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:43 PM

#

are all shards on the same machine?

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:44 PM

#

Yeah

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:44 PM

#

then you dont need express

#

use tcp or ubuntu/windows sockets

#

and a message broker library

#

and have a single express server for external connections

#

if you're using a sharding manager, have the express running on the sharder

#

and gather info from shards using broadcastEval

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

you can make it faster by using ipc and avoiding internet connections altogether

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

The broadcastEval fails if not all the shards are spawned

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

the shardingManager uses node child_process

#

so you should have access to shard.send()/shard.on("message") and process.on("message")/process.send()

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

I’m pretty sure these fail if a websocket is closed and that sort of thing. Also during startup nothing will respond obviously

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

those are process based, not websocket based

#

as soon as a shard is launched, the ipc connection will already work, even if the shard is not online

#

and you can individually contact specific shards, and handle errors

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:49 PM

#

Mm ok

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:50 PM

#

as soon as a child process is spawned, you can do childProcess.send() and the child process can listen to it using process.on("message")

#

im pretty sure the sharding manager gives you access to the childProcess object

#

or an abstracted version of it (the shard object)

#

then the child process (shard) can reply using process.send()

#

to which the parent can listen using childProcess.on("message")

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:51 PM

#

Yeah I understand

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:51 PM

#

its a bit complicated to set up, but broadcastEval is basically an abstraction of that

#

and its weird that it has such basic flaws as you said lol

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 2:53 PM

#

Yeah iirc broadcastEval only works once all shards have gotten a ready event

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 2:54 PM

#

yeah it kinda makes sense, but it does make it less useful

#

@west spoke would be nice to see what api calls do it. Mind doing it? (I don't have access to a PC)

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 4:03 PM

#

iirc it’s just another websocket same as voice just with a different protocol

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 4:03 PM

#

how users send voice and video data is not the same how bots do it

#

don't even bother trying to make bots send video data, all valid video packets sent from bots get dropped instantly

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 4:05 PM

#

I was just answering because he’s just asking what it actually does

#

Not that he wants to I think because yeah u just can’t with bot accounts

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 4:05 PM

mossy vine Oct 10, 2019, 4:58 PM

`${0x0000008}`

hushed berry Oct 10, 2019, 4:59 PM

That would still just put 8 though, no?

west spoke Oct 10, 2019, 4:59 PM

@cursive dagger I'll do it soon, once I implement a eval into my bot.

mossy vine Oct 10, 2019, 4:59 PM

Theres probably a util function that converts a number to a hex string

Find that and use that

Hello everyone,
i have a code to create channel, but the bot doesn't make a text channel. also i made a script which used to log errors but no error.
I use discord.js and this is the script:
client.on("message", (message) => {
if (message.content.startsWith("cmd create channel")) {
function makeChannel(message){
let name = message.author.username;

message.guild.createChannel(name, "Textchannel")
.then(console.log)

.catch(console.error);
}
let ping = new Discord.RichEmbed()
.addField("Bot", "✅ Channel New_channel created succesfully");
message.channel.send(ping);

}
});

#

the bot sends channel created but nothing happend

#

Wöt is it

past pike Oct 10, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

now does he make a channel called my username because of this let command:
let name = message.author.username;
do you know something i can replace for it? I would like to have a channel called textchannel

tulip tundra Oct 10, 2019, 6:15 PM

#

let name = "textchannel"

past pike Oct 10, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

something goes wrong i see

📎 unknown.png

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

Do var / const

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

what does sth mean btw spooker

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

not let

#

Something

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

ahh

#

can i just make an embed as i would in a command?

past pike Oct 10, 2019, 6:18 PM

#

then i get the same error skipper

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:18 PM

#

@astral meteor As user

#

no

past pike Oct 10, 2019, 6:19 PM

#

i fixed it

thanks for help guys 🙂

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

uwu

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

so i cant do const embed = new RichEmbed()?

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

i thought you can?

#

i think I do

#

something like that

#

wait no

#

you cant

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

what do i use instead?

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

its basically the same, but RichEmbed will be undefined if you just do new RichEmbed(), since that's a function of discordjs, you'd do Discord.RichEmbed

tulip tundra Oct 10, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

wdym you cant

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

const embed = new Discord.RichEmbed()

#

or whatever you defined discordjs as

#

i could be unknowingly pulling some of that out of my ass but its what I know

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

i have const { Client, RichEmbed } = require('discord.js');

tulip tundra Oct 10, 2019, 6:24 PM

#

you can do it as an object

#

const embed = { }

#

like

#

color: color,
title: title,
blahblah: and so on
}```

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

cheers :)

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 6:26 PM

I just do the whole addField addColor etc thing

ah sh

sinful lotus Oct 10, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

worry more about your internet than the laptop

#

and what I mean about a laptop, is the laptop that you dont use ofc

#

its a waste to make a laptop that you still use as your server

i'll add you as a friend zoomeyes

Is there a reason I cant help you here?

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:00 PM

#

well not really

#

so well

#

what os u on?

#

local?

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:01 PM

#

My ovh uses ubuntu 16.04

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:01 PM

#

ok

#

what way did you login to the console thing?

#

to access the vps

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:01 PM

#

They email you the ip and password

#

And I use putty

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

ok

#

putty is not letting me enter the password

#

what is that about?

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

I believe you connect first then enter the password for root. I havent had to sign in in 10 months though

#

Oh and the default user is root

#

mmulu

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

yeh

#

so the ip is the IPv4

#

what about the port?

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

Ssh default port is 22 I believe

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

ok

#

and that works for you?

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:05 PM

#

Like I said, I havent signed in for a while. I'm not at my computer either

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:05 PM

#

ok

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:05 PM

#

But it is default so it should work

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:06 PM

#

i guess ill have to figure out why i cant type the password then

slender thistle Oct 10, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

It doesn't display the characters you type in

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

i was guessing that

#

it says wrong password tho

#

so either they sent me the wrong password or it doesnt type

slender thistle Oct 10, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

Make sure your keyboard language is the same etc etc

#

Or reconnect and try again

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

i have tryed about 10 times already

#

no luck

amber fractal Oct 10, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

You cant copy paste either

faint bridge Oct 10, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

yeah i tryed it on the username

#

well its starting to be late for me so ill try again tomorrow

#

just having my bot offline for multiple hours mad

Is there a python library for ram.moe that I could use,

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

When my bot joins a server, how do I send something to a channel in a different server (#guild-logs channel in bot's support server).

hushed berry Oct 10, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

Which part specifically do you not know how to do?

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

Sending a message into a server.

#

I have the embed and channel set.

#

It only works when I add the bot to the server with the #guild-logs channel in.

hushed berry Oct 10, 2019, 7:28 PM

#

Which library are you using?

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:28 PM

discord.js

    const channel = client.channels.get('631924772003119119')
    const exampleEmbed = {

#

I have that at the moment

hushed berry Oct 10, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

afaik, that should work

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

it didnt

#

Ill try with a different server

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

what

#

you are getting the channel be a specific id

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

yeah

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

hence the client.channels.get('631924772003119119')

#

it wouldn't on different servers

#

@astral meteor const g = client.guilds.get(id); const ch = g.channels.get('631924772003119119')

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:30 PM

When adding to other servers, it gives this error in console.

When adding to the server with the specified channel id, it works as it should do.

If I may suggest @astral meteor use a webhook

Would it be helpful to you if we all replied with "no" or "idk"

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:35 PM

You don’t have to worry about any cache things etc

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:35 PM

But is it not more difficult lol?

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:36 PM

Not really

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:36 PM

#

@earnest phoenix channels is undefined

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:36 PM

It 1. Nicer 2. Easily changeable on the go 3. No caching needed (more reliable) 4. Allows for expandability

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 7:36 PM

rEEEE

#

idk anymore

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:36 PM

#

not in index.js

#

📎 unknown.png

#

@slim heart how would one go about creating a webhook for it?

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:37 PM

#

Again do webhooks

#

Do new Discord.WebhookClient(webhookid, webhooktoken) and it’s has a .send method similar to channels

#

And do it outside of the event cuz u can just store it as a variable and use send on it

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:38 PM

#

Alrighty

#

one sec

heady salmon Oct 10, 2019, 7:38 PM

I did google it.

I’m thinking it’s under another name.

OliyChan what’re you doing

heady salmon Oct 10, 2019, 7:40 PM

Still interested in why his client.channels doesn't include the channel 👀

heady salmon Oct 10, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

Oh.

#

Trying to find a python library for ram.moe

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:40 PM

Probably bad variable naming but tbh webhooks are still better

what can ppl do with it lol

heady salmon Oct 10, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

Yeah

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

ill do it after i get it working lol

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:43 PM

#

First off delete and make another webhook cuz u just exposed webhook token and whatnot. Two, get rid of whoever told you to get channels off of a guild (way wrong idk). Three, define the new webhook client as a variable and when sending a message do <that variable>.send instead of channel.send

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:44 PM

#

what do I define the webhook client as?

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:44 PM

#

Whatever you want

#

But then do that variable .send

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:45 PM

#

Do I use var or const?

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:45 PM

#

Doesn’t matter

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:45 PM

client.on('guildCreate', function(guild) {
    const guildlogs 
    const exampleEmbed = {
        color: 0x7289da,
        title: 'Bot joined a new guild.',
        fields: [
            {
                name: 'Guild Name',
                value: `${guild.name}`,
                inline: true,
            },
            {
                name: 'Guild ID',
                value: `${guild.id}`,
                inline: true,

            {
                name: 'Guild Owner',

        },
    };
    
    guildlogs.send({ embed: exampleEmbed });
});```

#

I must be really thick, because having const guildlogs on its own seems weird

#

So I assume what I did was wrong

twilit rapids Oct 10, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

uhm

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

I

#

No set the new webhook client as guildlogs, it’s the same process as how you define client as a variable and use that

#

Also const variable; will error

#

Since you can define a const as undefined/something undefined

twilit rapids Oct 10, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

It might also be a good idea to learn a bit more about JavaScript

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

Specifically webhooks

#

bots are fine except some eventd

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

Yeah idk if you’re just getting confused or something but somethings weird

#

It’s the same as declaring a discord client

Do not risk it

check your guildlogs

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

The channel? Nothing got sent.

tulip tundra Oct 10, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

which channel

late hill Oct 10, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

webhooks take an array of embeds

#

so I'd assume discord.js implementation does too

#

?

astral meteor Oct 10, 2019, 8:02 PM

#

It's supposed to send an embed into #guild-logs (channel in bot's support server) when the client joins a new server.

tulip tundra Oct 10, 2019, 8:02 PM

#

i mean

#

first line const guildlogs = ...

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

You can just send the embed object

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

where and why do people have the thought that logging gateway events to a text channel is a good idea

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

Uh

#

What

tulip tundra Oct 10, 2019, 8:04 PM

#

@astral meteor you can simply define your logs channel as a variable then send the message

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:05 PM

#

@astral meteor I would suggest replace the embed object with a richembed, but also it should take the object just as, if not though, you can try doing {embeds: [embed]}

#

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 8:07 PM

mmulu

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:11 PM

@astral meteor figured it out, do .send("", {embed: exampleEmbed});

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:12 PM

pretty sure .send({ embed: exampleEmbed }) works

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:12 PM

it doesnt

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:12 PM

#

unless it's different for webhooks

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:12 PM

#

i thought it did too

#

but im getting the same error on TextChannel#send as well

#

its only does it if its a RichEmbed

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:13 PM

#

you are right (checked docs for a sec)

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:14 PM

#

i would've sworn it was like that before too

#

i just asked in djs

#

cuz i i remember it treating first param as messageoptions if it was an object

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

It seems that you need to call it as <Webhook>.send(content, { embeds: [{...}] }) | I don't know why it's like that, but seems to be it (the way you're doing it with normal objects).

slim heart Oct 10, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

oh they changed it in v12

#

v11 had this

  send(content, options) {
    if (!options && typeof content === 'object' && !(content instanceof Array)) {
      options = content;
      content = '';
    } else if (!options) {
      options = {};
    }

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:44 PM

#

I'm having a simple issue trying to make a snipe command in Discord.js. When I try filtering the past cached messages, I always get an empty array. I tried two examples:

// Attempt #1 - This was within the actual command script (`Tools/snipe.js`).
let deleted = [];
            
for (const [, msg] of message.channel.messages) {
   if (msg.deleted && msg.author.id === member.user.id) {
      deleted.push(msg);
              
      if (deleted.length >= limit) {
         break;
      }
   }
} // deleted => []

// Attempt #2
message.channel.messages.fetch({ limit: 100 }).then((msgs) => msgs.filter((msg) => msg.deleted).map((msg) => msg.author ? msg.author.tag : "???")); // => []```
From the two attempts, it was obvious `<Message>.deleted` does not update/show deleted as true. I don't know how I would be able to tell if a message was deleted or not without setting it every time or listening to the messageDelete event.

smoky spire Oct 10, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

If a message is deleted, you can't fetch it anymore so it wouldn't be returned by fetch

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

You can: message.channel.messages.fetch(id)

smoky spire Oct 10, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

Maybe if ur fast enough

#

But fetching 100 messages definitely isn't fast enough

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:51 PM

#

I tried it, and that seems to be the case. But now I wonder how I'd be able to mimic the effect of "getting the last deleted message(s) from a member"

smoky spire Oct 10, 2019, 8:52 PM

#

You can listen to the messageDelete event and have a database with a message object attached to a user id

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 8:54 PM

#

storing so many messages into a database is expensive

#

i'd say inmemory cache is enough

smoky spire Oct 10, 2019, 8:55 PM

#

when I said database I meant database type of thing, which includes ^

sudden geyser Oct 10, 2019, 8:58 PM

#

I'd rather use a map. I don't think I can store the actual object as I don't think that'd be allowed by Discord. I'll try that, but what about the need to fetch many messages?

Does anyone have any tips for setting up a webhook? I've already put the webhook info in Github, but I'm not sure where to go from there. My goal is to get the webhook to send posts from a Twitter account to a channel.

#

If I have to code something, I'm not sure where to do it and I'm not very good at Python yet, but I'm trying to learn it.

#

I was able to follow most of the steps from the webhook tutorial on discordapp.

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 9:31 PM

#

i dont think discord supports twitter webhook by default, although i found several workarounds from a quick google search

#

you need a third party website/service to receive twitter updates and redirect them to discord

indigo niche Oct 10, 2019, 9:38 PM

#

Alright. But I'm still not sure where I need to actually program the webhook to send messages.

#

https://gist.github.com/jagrosh/5b1761213e33fc5b54ec7f6379034a22

Gist

Simple Github -> Discord webhook

Simple Github -> Discord webhook. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.

#

Are there any steps I have to do after following this? I have yet to enter any sort of URL I want the bot to use.

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 9:55 PM

#

you want the bot to use webhooks?

#

because you can do webhooks without a bot

indigo niche Oct 10, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

I just want to get the webhook to function. I followed the tutorial, so it should be capable of sending stuff, but it can't.

quartz kindle Oct 10, 2019, 10:44 PM

#

with a bot or without a bot?

#

because to do it without a bot with github is easy, but with twitter is not

#

the guide above shows how to set it up with github, not with twitter

#

the webhook is a receiver, not a sender. you configure a webhook on discord to receive messages

#

the messages are sent by the third party service (ie: github) when updates/new stuff happen, like pushing a new commit or having a new issue no github

#

you dont do any actual sending anywhere, you dont need to

#

you just configure your webhook and then configure the third party service to find your webhook

Hey, has anyone worked with the react-color npm package? I cannot seem to get it working at all. It keeps saying it cannot find some of its own modules, ive checked the dir of the package and the paths match so I'm not sure what to do

#

What I mean with the path match is that the files are where they should be with proper exports etc...

alright i need some insights

i have a set of cron jobs that shouldnt execute at the same time

currently my plan is to do this

#

create an event loop and loop through a tasklist which recieves task from the cron jobs

and the event loop executes the tasklist async like and such

is there a better approach?

earnest phoenix Oct 10, 2019, 11:59 PM

I just found a security flaw out of my bot involving Oauth2 and a web panel. The user's session code + discord auth token are stored in cookies. It is designed to allow a user access to server commands if their token and session code are acceptable by discord and my bot.

However, if you copy an auth code on a way different application, and replace it with the authorized token on the bot panel, it will grant you access to that user, allowing you to run commands as that user. This could possibly be used as a server owner authorizing a random application and the application owner copying the code and using it on the webpanel.

How can I add an extra layer of security that won't let that happen, without an alternative to cookies.

#

This method also works on some other popular bots, but I won't be naming them.

slim heart Oct 11, 2019, 12:26 AM

#

store the auth token by a token generated by you and store that token in cookies, then when they do a request use that token to get the bearer token from the database and do requests with it yourself

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 12:30 AM

#

That works too, but I've done something similar.

#

I've created an extra cookie dashsecure

📎 unknown.png

#

Which is saved in memory when a code is turned to a token and they can only run commands with a token where a dashsecure code matches.

slim heart Oct 11, 2019, 12:31 AM

#

well that makes, no difference if an app can get a hold of the token they'd still be able to do anything with it

#

the only real solution is what i just described and doing it differently is just flat out a bad idea

tranquil drum Oct 11, 2019, 12:50 AM

#

are you setting token cookies through http headers?

valid frigate Oct 11, 2019, 12:54 AM

#

oauth is the best way to go, there should be nothing additional unless you're sure it's necessary

#

judging by your idea of adding additional cookies, it's useless if someone other than your target user were to get ahold of the token (as berry said earlier )

it's probably that typeof(ss21) isn't a string or buffer

just convert the object when its received by the module

you start the bot the same youd start it in another command line

you can ssh into your vps and set it up from there

yeah i just need to figure out how to get the files

dusky marsh Oct 11, 2019, 5:19 AM

the files for your bot?

#

use git

faint bridge Oct 11, 2019, 5:19 AM

#

github?

dusky marsh Oct 11, 2019, 5:20 AM

#

well you can use github yes, you just need somewhere to host the files and then you can git pull on your vps

#

so any git repository will do just dont make it public with your token and stuff 😛

faint bridge Oct 11, 2019, 5:21 AM

#

ok ill see how

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 5:45 AM

#

if you want to upload your files without git you can just use sftp

#

once you have node installed on the vps make sure your running a version node 10 or higher with node -v

#

then do npm i pm2 -g

#

aws

Digital Ocean offers $15/m

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 8:45 AM

#

any vps will do

#

oh you want managed dbs?

#

but why

#

it's so much more expensive for something you could code in 10 minutes

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 8:47 AM

#

Not sure, still looking into it

weary lark Oct 11, 2019, 8:47 AM

#

There's some good vps services in pinned which I think majority can handle db hosting

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 8:47 AM

#

managed dbs are mostly for businesses who don't want to bother with setting up the database server

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 8:48 AM

#

How easy is it to set one up then? As I have no experience with them.

#

Also, if ya'll have recommendations?

#

One person recommended Mongodb.com, but it's a non-relational database.

What about SQLite?

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 8:55 AM

#

sqlite is local

mossy vine Oct 11, 2019, 8:56 AM

#

mongodb is pretty easy to use and has good performance

weary lark Oct 11, 2019, 8:56 AM

#

i use rethinkdb

#

the db you use varies the type of bot/app you're making and what uses it needs and stuff like that

slender thistle Oct 11, 2019, 8:57 AM

#

I heard PostgreSQL has fairly descent performance?

ornate shoal Oct 11, 2019, 8:57 AM

#

Yeah PostgreSQL is a good db too

#

there are quite a few good options, but it really depends on what you want to make and do with it

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

postgres is basically mysql without oracle and with features you wish mysql had

#

which is why i love it so much

#

it's really performant

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

It'll be a bot that deals with an extensive workload

slender thistle Oct 11, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

Is it worth migrating to PostgreSQL from mongo? 02lul

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

mongo is just glorified json

#

so yes

ornate shoal Oct 11, 2019, 8:59 AM

#

hey, mongo isn't that bad.. altho i'd personally prefer postgres tho

slender thistle Oct 11, 2019, 8:59 AM

#

k3llyShrug

ornate shoal Oct 11, 2019, 9:00 AM

#

if you have a lot of time series data you can also use the timescale extension for postgres

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 9:00 AM

#

Why postgres?

ornate shoal Oct 11, 2019, 9:01 AM

#

because its a great sql database thats fast, well optimized, well supported and has good functionality

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 9:01 AM

#

I'm currently leaning towards SQLite, I'm avoiding a non-relational database and it seems I'm also avoiding a managed database due to cost.

ornate shoal Oct 11, 2019, 9:02 AM

#

SQLite is probably the easiest to set up and good for small to medium workloads

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 9:02 AM

#

but it's also local, meaning you can't manually access it through a server

#

you have to make an interpreter which will communicate with the file

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 9:04 AM

#

Is that regarding SQLite @earnest phoenix?

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 9:04 AM

#

yes

ornate shoal Oct 11, 2019, 9:04 AM

#

^ depends on what language/framework you're using, for .NET you can just simply install a package and you're done

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 9:04 AM

#

hmm

#

So, Postgres is a similar kind of database, instead of being embedded into the program and writing to a file, it's an entity separate from the program that writes data more efficiently?

#

Whilst SQLite is embedded?

#

Python has a nice library for dealing with SQLite, so I'm leaning towards that but I need to make sure I'm making an educated decision.

earnest phoenix Oct 11, 2019, 9:08 AM

#

if you're going for a large scale database, avoid sqlite

#

if it's small scale, sqlite is perfect for that

true basin Oct 11, 2019, 9:10 AM

@green kestrel that is also a side effect of disabling guild subscriptions

ah. 😦

damned if i do, damned if i dont.

quartz kindle Oct 11, 2019, 10:40 AM

that is why no library is even offering that option yet

because it screws up with almost everything

on the other hand, its perfect for my needs

green kestrel Oct 11, 2019, 10:40 AM

ah

i think i'll leave subscriptions on for now until i can make my own lib

quartz kindle Oct 11, 2019, 10:40 AM

yeah thats also an option

well, this thing ive made is going to be quite memory intensive.

seems that the only option i have, without having a cache of just ids, is to convert the entire cached user list into an array and slice it at a random point. stupid library.

@green kestrel yes

#

you'd have to disconnect and re-login to change it

green kestrel Oct 11, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

@rocky gale loop through them and remove all but the id of the one you want to keep, calling remove on each?

rocky gale Oct 11, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

@green kestrel I don't want to keep the process that long, but

green kestrel Oct 11, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

isnt there a 'remove all roles' method?

#

if there is you can call that and then add back the other

#

im pretty sure there isnt such a method, though

any errors?

solemn harness Oct 11, 2019, 12:37 PM

yea

#

no

but the bot bot is not responding

#

when i test this

#

is this correct?

quartz kindle Oct 11, 2019, 12:43 PM

#

i dont think message.guild.size is correct

#

but that wouldnt cause it to fail

#

console.log(cmd) before the IF

#

to make sure it contains what you expect

solemn harness Oct 11, 2019, 12:43 PM

#

ok

rocky gale Oct 11, 2019, 12:44 PM

#

@slender thistle no, instead of deleting the role, I want to get other roles that the user has that role.

#

const otherRoles = msg.guild.roles.map(g => g.id != role.id ? g.name : "").join(", ");

#

can we distinguish this way?

solemn harness Oct 11, 2019, 12:45 PM

#

is there any problem with using cmd not command

#

it doesn't cause any error

#

@quartz kindle

#

the bot is not listening

is your code on github

solemn harness Oct 11, 2019, 12:49 PM

#

no

#

should i upload it

green kestrel Oct 11, 2019, 12:53 PM

#

its possible to send an embed via direct message to a user, yes?

#

the library im using lacks it, im thinking its just an 'embed' property needs adding

slender thistle Oct 11, 2019, 12:55 PM

#

An embed is an embed

#

yes it is possible

quartz kindle Oct 11, 2019, 12:57 PM

#

of not, show the rest of your code

@solemn harness please dont DM me, first im no expert and second if i was to help, nobody else here could benefit from the answer.

@slender thistle i fixed it, the User::sendMessage method was missing the $embed parameter and not passing it through to the promise. i basically copied the code from the one for Channel::sendMessage and it works fine. thanks!
