Its creating a image

Ofc its gonna be slow

^^^^^^^

distant plank Oct 31, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

is there any alternative?

west spoke Oct 31, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

not creating a image and just fetch the url's base64 data and then convert it into a image

distant plank Oct 31, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

what?

modest maple Oct 31, 2019, 7:31 PM

#

not making an image == faster

west spoke Oct 31, 2019, 7:31 PM

#

Google "base64 to image lang"

distant plank Oct 31, 2019, 7:32 PM

#

And how do I do that? I don't know much :C

west spoke Oct 31, 2019, 7:33 PM

#

Fetch the url and turn the data into base64

#

google it if you dont know how

distant plank Oct 31, 2019, 7:33 PM

#

ok

earnest phoenix Oct 31, 2019, 7:36 PM

#

image generation, especially when using imagemagick, uses a lot of CPU power

#

it won't be optimal if you're selfhosting, multi-tasking on the same machine, using a free host or have a weak machine

modest maple Oct 31, 2019, 7:39 PM

i mean

#

threadripper might be an exception

fallow quiver Oct 31, 2019, 7:44 PM

Ok, how would I make my bot send a message to a specific channel by ID

So only in that server, in that channel, will it send the message

Javascript

modest maple Oct 31, 2019, 7:47 PM

JS in this example

modest maple Oct 31, 2019, 7:47 PM

well then yh

fallow quiver Oct 31, 2019, 7:48 PM

So I put the ID for (channelid)

#

I haven't done JS in a bit so thanks

distant plank Oct 31, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

You're welcome

quartz kindle Oct 31, 2019, 7:54 PM

#

@distant plank one way to make it faster is to rewrite that code to canvas, but good luck doing that

#

You can also try sharp

#

Supposedly its the fastest image manipulation library

#

Also, why is that code resizing an image 3 times?

#

Also check if the slowness is actually the image generation or if its the image downloading. If its the latter, get better internet

distant plank Oct 31, 2019, 8:50 PM

#

@quartz kindle How can I achieve the same effect with sharp?

earnest phoenix Oct 31, 2019, 8:54 PM

Does this look okay the way I am doing this, guys? Because sometimes I get a "User aborted request" error, same with my rank card command

@distant plank you'd have to read the sharp docs

So i've a question that i'm probably not asking in the right area, however, our bot {HSF}LadyShadow#7111 was removed from this server.
However this servers #logs has no report of it, yet she's still on DBL's website.
Any idea what's goin' on?

I need help with java.. I want to send a webhook. I created a StringEntity with the Json body.
The description should be a tweet. The problem is, it doesn't accept the line breaks.. Has anyone here found a solution to this problem?

west spoke Oct 31, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

@floral zinc use \n instead of a newline

floral zinc Oct 31, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

I'm using that. When I type it in the Json string itself (I have to use \n) it works fine. But when I have the description as a variable and just replace the breaks with \n it results in sending a content like this:

Thisnisnantestn

Instead of:

This

undone rose Nov 1, 2019, 1:48 AM

I dont know, but thats how magik is done

Use a lib that interacts with image/graphicsmagick

That program can utilize liquid rescaling

@heavy void what are you hosting your bot on? Move here instead of #topgg-api
Whatever you're hosting on you can try restarting the running instance of your bot

I restarted it multiple times

But still sending 2 messages

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 4:41 AM

all of these off brand vps moments

#

a lot of people go for vultr, galaxygate, digitalocean, ovh, etc

#

and you should move your bot off glitch asap

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 4:50 AM

#

galaxygate is probably the best in that list for servers

#

Cheap, reliable, and good net speeds

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 4:56 AM

#

yeah anything on that list, but not restricted there

#

imo the heiarchy is most vps servers > heroku > glitch

#

while you could ask someone to host your bot for you, that comes with the risk of providing your token n shit so dont do that

undone rose Nov 1, 2019, 5:32 AM

https://qoilo.com/hosting I've been using them for months and they offer some super cheap hosting too. I haven't had a single issue with them yet tbh. I had a VPS (one of their mid-tier ones) for a while but then I got a dedi from them for super cheap. abt $36 a month for 64GB of RAM and dual quad core xeons. This host was the one that got me moved over from Vultr, and so far it's been the only host that's been able to make me ditch Vultr

floral zinc Nov 1, 2019, 5:58 AM

@sudden geyser yea I've tried that. And that does work if I put it in the Json directly. If I put it in a String and put that String in the Json it doesn't work. I dunno why

hoary elm Nov 1, 2019, 7:09 AM

#

@fallow spire not as far as i know there is a few bots such as Nadeko that allow (usually admin or bot owner) to send messages to a specified user

cunning goblet Nov 1, 2019, 7:09 AM

#

no it isnt

#

in most cases

Because someone in my Server with his Bot a that Feature open for everyone

#

@hoary elm

hoary elm Nov 1, 2019, 7:12 AM

#

well if it abuses API im sure would depend on how fast the messages are sent, as far as allowing the command to be used by everyone im not sure if there is rules to that

fallow spire Nov 1, 2019, 7:12 AM

#

Ok

#

Cuz if the Person you want a Dm to send to, has blocked you, can you use that as a "bypass"

cunning goblet Nov 1, 2019, 7:13 AM

#

it doesn't really care how much you spam (because you wont get api banned easily)

undone rose Nov 1, 2019, 7:13 AM

#

You should not let users send messages with your bot because you are liable for whatever your bot sends

cunning goblet Nov 1, 2019, 7:13 AM

#

almost every bot

#

has a say command

#

so this is basically a port to dms

patent prism Nov 1, 2019, 7:14 AM

Is a bit intrusive but not against the tos

hoary elm Nov 1, 2019, 7:14 AM

#

maybe there should be limitations to say commands

undone rose Nov 1, 2019, 7:15 AM

But just like having an image search commands, while it in itself is not against tos, you should not do it, because it can break tos

@earnest phoenix how can i make widgets for my bot

it will be useful for a server stat and command list in the description

cause i know some about html

#

@earnest phoenix if you want to use widgets for your not page you must first of all take that simple example they give you in the edit page

Then you'll study how they connect bot components, then it'll be like decomposing an object

bot.avatar, bot.shardCount etc

i will come to that later after making a bot

hey ! just a quick java question, how to check if the first argument is equals to an element of an enum class ?

pallid zinc Nov 1, 2019, 3:27 PM

 let numberOfTrees = teamTrees.getTrees();

message.channel.send(numberOfTrees)```

Not giving any err but not even sending anything

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:28 PM

i code in JDA 😩

jade thistle Nov 1, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

try putting a ";" at the end of the last line

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

i made an enum class to list all of my commands, their usage and their explanation

#

and i want to check if the first arg of the command is an element of this enum class

pallid zinc Nov 1, 2019, 3:30 PM

#

nothing happens with ";"

fallow spire Nov 1, 2019, 3:38 PM

@jade thistle That don't solves the Problem...

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:39 PM

#

semicolons do not matter

#

they're optional in js

#

also @leaden void what is the reason behind making your commands in an enum? it's better to put them in a List instance so you can iterate over them

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

i just did this BAN ("Ban", "ban [user] [time (optional)] [reason]", "Bans user from the server."),

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

ah that

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

the command's name, it's usage and it's explanation

#

in an enum class

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

and i assume you have a run() method override in your command classes?

late hill Nov 1, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

I don't think there's a specific method to do that with enums but they do have a values() method that you can iterate to check for a match @leaden void

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

so the enum is just for description

pallid zinc Nov 1, 2019, 3:46 PM

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:48 PM

#

there's no available iterate method

if(args[1].equalsIgnoreCase(HelpList.values().toString())) {

#

this don't really sounds like it will work

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:51 PM

#

huh

#

well to be fair i've never seen more than one value assigned to an enum key

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:52 PM

#

oof

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:52 PM

#

to set up commands, you could make a base command class and extend other commands off of that class

#

although it's in kotlin it's not too different from java

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:53 PM

#

hmmm

#

k i think i'll just check if the args is equals to a value name

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:54 PM

#

yeah id advise only using 1 value per enum key

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:54 PM

#

hmm

late hill Nov 1, 2019, 3:54 PM

#

you can just use a for

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:54 PM

#

looks bad to make a class for every value

late hill Nov 1, 2019, 3:55 PM

#

for (EnumValue value : Enum.values()) {

}```

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:55 PM

#

i always do enum classes with a lot of values

#

what am i supposed to do with that ?

late hill Nov 1, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

Well

valid frigate Nov 1, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

that iterates over every value in the enum

late hill Nov 1, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

You wanted to check if one of them matches a given argument?

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

ohhhhh

#

thanks alot

late hill Nov 1, 2019, 3:57 PM

#

Basically put the code you've put up above in there

#

and use the value instead of Helplist.values()

#

I don't think toString() will work btw

leaden void Nov 1, 2019, 3:58 PM

yup

Unless you've added a toString()

for (HelpList value : HelpList.values()) {
                    if(args[1].equalsIgnoreCase(value.getCmdName())) {
                        //My code

blissful scaffold Nov 1, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

@leaden void instead of putting all my commands in an enum i just have them all in a package and on startup I loop over all the classes in there to see if they extend the main command class and just create a constructor and instance from that class

#

Class<?> superClass = CommandParent.class;
List<Class<?>> classes = ClassFinder.find(PACKAGE_NAME);
for (Class<?> c : classes) {
    if (c.equals(superClass) || !superClass.isAssignableFrom(c)) {
        continue;
    }
    try {
        Constructor<?> ctor = c.getConstructor();
        CommandParent o = (CommandParent) ctor.newInstance();
        register(o, o.getCommandName());
    } catch (Exception e) {
        // handle the error
    }
}

The ClassFinder is a class that I wrote, I won't help you with that 😛

oh so I was better off loading from the disk?

quartz kindle Nov 1, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

from a performance perspective, disk will always be faster than network

#

and memory will always be faster than disk

#

so you should load from disk, and cache in memory whatever can be reused

#

then, for a full background, jpg is better (if you dont need pixel perfect quality)

undone rose Nov 1, 2019, 4:51 PM

#

Thays why PIL is good

quartz kindle Nov 1, 2019, 4:51 PM

#

png is better for transparency

#

so use png for icons and objects with transparent parts, and jpg for full color backgrounds

#

then, use an image compressor

#

there are plenty of good algorithms out there that can compress images without any meaningful quality loss

#

for example pngquant (for pngs)

#

and of course, dont make images bigger than what you need them to be

#

keep their resolution realistic

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 4:54 PM

#

alright so basically

Resize the overall image
Load images from the disk
Cache the default background
Use pngquant for compressing

quartz kindle Nov 1, 2019, 4:54 PM

basically yes

anyone know a js lib that helps you fetch the full url, that url shorteners redirects you to ?

@earnest phoenix you can use anything, even an array/object/map

hmm

#

weird, it works on stuff like bitly, but not the specific service im working on

#

how many ways are there to shorten urls and redirect em

quartz kindle Nov 1, 2019, 6:24 PM

#

the problem is not the redirection, is when the redirection is "premium"

#

like when they make you do something to make the link continue, like watch an ad, or fill a survey

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 6:27 PM

#

can i send the link, i'm trying to expand

?

#

im fairly certain what you're mentioning isn't a problem, it's a pretty basic service

(this specific url shortener site)

@earnest phoenix I used to use this ^^ in one of my old node.js bots

Not sure if it still works though

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 6:32 PM

of course it is

Oh ok and how ?

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 7:01 PM

in which library

lofty hamlet Nov 1, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

discord.js

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Client?scrollTo=e-voiceStateUpdate

#

first check if the new member's voice channel property is defined

#

if it is, it means they joined in the channel

hoary elm Nov 1, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

Umm

earnest phoenix Nov 1, 2019, 7:04 PM

then you can grab the voice channel members property and filter out your bot

#

and simply count how many users there are

Mmmmh

For that I'm sure you could use guild.members.filter

I submitted my bot recently to be approved, but didn't read the permissions = 0 part of the faq until afterwards. If a bot is relying on having permission to read text chat messages, could that cause it to fail to take arguments from a command?

loud salmon Nov 1, 2019, 8:26 PM

if the bot alerts the command runner that it is missing permissions then we add the permissions @candid hill

Ah. I just learned about catch, so I probably missed some promises. Is your testing process automated?

userbots aren't allowed and bots shouldnt respond to other bots

why not just make the members collection an array

rather than mapping it and then trying to get each one from the guild again

#

and is GuildMember#hasRole() even a method?

#

wait what version of d.js are you using

sudden geyser Nov 2, 2019, 1:05 AM

#

@earnest phoenix in fact that might be useless

#

both mapping and converting to an array

#

forEach is already in Map

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 1:05 AM

#

that's why i asked why is he mapping it

#

but you could convert the collection to an array of guild members to use forEach()

sudden geyser Nov 2, 2019, 1:08 AM

#

yes, but there's no need to do that as forEach is inherited with map.

By the way, hasRole is not a property in stable or master. Take a look at the Collection/GuildMemberRolesStore class.

oh ok 👍

why are you evaling it in the first place

(new Date(Date.now()) + '0000-00-03') has already given s a value

math.eval(new Date(Date.now()) + '+ 0000-00-03');

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 12:57 PM

#

you cant do math like that

#

a date object will be converted to a string if you do that

#

📎 unknown.png

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 12:58 PM

#

Well, how can I add 3 days to the current time?

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 12:58 PM

#

the "0000-00-03" string will simply be appended to the end of the converted time string

#

the Date object can only do math operations based on timestamps

#

so you need to add 3 days in miliseconds to the original date

#

or use a library that is built for date and time operations like that

#

but the easiest way is to simply do new Date(Date.now() + 3daysinmiliseconds)

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 1:01 PM

1 second is 1000ms, 1 minute is 60s, 1 hour is 60m, one day is 24h

why are you wrapping an event listener in a function?

thats like, so wrong

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:02 PM

#

^

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:04 PM

#

it's just cleaner

#

in my opinion

#

because I can just list the commands like

#

requestOrbImage(); (a command)

#

or

#

exampleCommand();

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

So

#

You're also adding a new listener for each command

#

sipp

copper cradle Nov 2, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

that's so wrong

#

use a command handler

#

smh

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

That's not cleaner

#

That's a problem

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:06 PM

#

can you just attempt to answer my question

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:06 PM

#

We did

#

Probably

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:06 PM

#

^No

#

The issue you're having is that you're using Array.slice() while probably not knowing what it actually does

#

It returns an array

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:07 PM

#

yes, I figured that out

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:07 PM

#

yes

#

your cmd won't ever equal an array

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:07 PM

#

beforehand I used [0,1,2] and it didn't work

#

so I posted a question on stackoverflow

#

some man suggested slice

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:07 PM

#

..

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:07 PM

#

it didn't work

#

and I came here

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array

Array

The JavaScript Array object is a global object that is used in the construction of arrays; which are high-level, list-like objects.

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:08 PM

it didn't work

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/includes

MDN Web Docs

Array.prototype.includes()

The includes() method determines whether an array includes a certain value among its entries, returning true or false as appropriate.

#

uhh

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

how is that supposed to help me

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

Read what the includes() method does

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

What

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

or simply guess by looking at it's name

#

uhh

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

People cant help if you aren't willing to learn

#

But yeah includes

#

Is a good method

#

To do things

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:11 PM

#

you really should stop using functions like that, but be my guest.
and yes, the answer to executing the same command from multiple keywords is using array.includes()

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:12 PM

#

how should I use functions

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:12 PM

#

the event listener is the base, the source or all commands

#

there should only be one event listener, listening to all messages, and then analyzing each message, and firing a relevant function

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:13 PM

#

there is only one event listener

#

because I only want one command

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:13 PM

#

so the listener should execute functions, not the function execute listeners

#

because listeners are permanent, they will keep running forever

#

if you execute a function which creates a listener, the listener will not stop when the function finishes

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:14 PM

#

If you want it to be clean, you can use a command handler

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:14 PM

#

and when you need that function again, it will create a new listener again

#

and then you will slowly be filling up your memory with endless listeners

#

multiplying your ram and cpu usage, until your bot crashes

earnest phoenix Nov 2, 2019, 2:14 PM

#

That's a 😳

#

You can still call function inside of the listener though

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

So, how would I use .Includes() to be anything in an entire array?

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

let array = [1,2,3,4,5];
array.includes(3) // true
array.includes(7) // false```

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:19 PM

#

that's only one thing in an array

#

unless I want to put tons of array.includes()

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:19 PM

#

No

#

It goes through the entire array

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:19 PM

#

thats what you asked, unless you want to check if one of multiple items exist in an array

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:20 PM

#

The parameter you pass to it is whatever you're checking

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:20 PM

#

for example, if I used that in an if statement like (if array.includes(2) ) { execute message }

#

that would be a single thing

#

that would execute it

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:21 PM

#

I think you're not understanding things because tim used numbers

#

the number you enter isn't an index

#

or an item in the array

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

ohhh

#

right

late hill Nov 2, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

📎 unknown.png

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

let array = ["keyword1","keyword2"];
array.includes("keyword1") // true
array.includes("keyword3") // false```

west spoke Nov 2, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

it's if "hi" is in " hi how are you"

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

but how would you do something like products.includes("apples" or "pears"){ fjsiekhesafessg}

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

so you want to check if one of multiple items exist in an array

#

thats a different thing

#

for that you need to use a combination of array.some() and array.includes()

#

array.some() takes a function to test each item in the array

#

and it returns true if one of the tests passes

azure nymph Nov 2, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

and would I just do

#

return true

#

in that case

#

so everything passes

quartz kindle Nov 2, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

that will make it always return true, so no

#

let array = ["one","two","three"];
let itemsToCheck = ["one","five"];
itemsToCheck.some(item => array.includes(item)) // true because one of the itemsToCheck exists in array
