Does anyone know why I get an error like: Failed loading opus. Is opus installed? Ruby | Ubuntu 18.04
frozen cedar
if(target.binds === null) {
target.binds = ""
}
let data = JSON.stringify(target);
fs.writeFileSync(`./guilds/${message.guild.id}.json`, data)```For some reason if it removes the last thig in target.binds it will leave target.binds as null
that is a no no
how can i fix
warm marsh
Is target.binds an object? Or array?
frozen cedar
array
frozen cedar
??
warm marsh
let test = Object.defineProperty({}, "binds", {
value: [],
writable: false
});
Means the property binds cant be overridden.
Will always be an array.
frozen cedar
delete target.binds[i];
let test = target.defineProperty({}, "binds", {
value: [],
writable: false
});
let data = JSON.stringify(target);
fs.writeFileSync(`./guilds/${message.guild.id}.json`, data)
}```So it would look like that?
frozen cedar
let target = JSON.parse(rawdata);
var i = 0;
target.binds.forEach(function(element) {
if(element.bindID == drole.content) {
delete target.binds[i];
if(target.binds === null) {
target.binds = " "
}
let data = JSON.stringify(target);
fs.writeFileSync(`./guilds/${message.guild.id}.json`, data)
}
i = i + 1```So what part of that?--
Sorry, Ive just never heard of this
warm marsh
Binds is passed from a string.
frozen cedar
const fs = require('fs');
let rawdata = fs.readFileSync(`./guilds/${message.guild.id}.json`);
let target = JSON.parse(rawdata);
var i = 0;
target.binds.forEach(function(element) {
if(element.bindID == drole.content) {
delete target.binds[i];
if(target.binds === null) {
target.binds = " "
}
let data = JSON.stringify(target);
fs.writeFileSync(`./guilds/${message.guild.id}.json`, data)
}
i = i + 1
I don't want to spoon feed but your top line. You could use const binds = { binds } = JSON.parse... and then create an object with Object.define...
Whoops.
Made a mistake. I hate mobile.
const { binds } = JSON.parse(rawdata)
Then create an object with that data.
earnest phoenix
is it possible to create a text database? I want each of my users to be able to create their own profile text or something haha
sql.prepare("CREATE TABLE scores (id TEXT PRIMARY KEY, user TEXT, guild TEXT, points INTEGER, profile TEXT);").run();
warm marsh
Yes it is possible.
earnest phoenix
Thankyou!! 💞 👍
warm marsh
✌
frozen cedar
yeah, somehash, i have no clue what you mean
you just gave me some code, with no explanation of what it is actually doing
warm marsh
Its creating or editing an object and adding a property that can be set so it cant be overridden.
I'll get some info.
frozen cedar
You dont understand, it needs to be able to be overridden
the point is so that an object can be deleted from it
frozen cedar
I just dont want the nulled part when it is overwritten
warm marsh
From what I saw your only deleting the data within the array not the array itself.
You're *
frozen cedar
Exactly.
I only want to delete a specified data thing
but when it does tha
t
it leaves behind null
warm marsh
Yes so using object define property it will delete the data but not the array.
warm marsh
...
frozen cedar
i only want to delete one object in the array
west raptor
@warm marsh opus is probably a ruby library of some sort
frozen cedar
thats the WHOLE point of this
warm marsh
I had a look but found nothing.
west raptor
I've never used ruby so I'm not sure
frozen cedar
That doesn't accomplish anything I'm trying to do.
I got it, nodejs delete leaves empty space in arrays
nodejs splice doesnt
so uh
please dont link irrelevant information next time
warm marsh
Next time use the console or explain better.
Also splice is part of vanilla js not nodejs.
frozen cedar
You should've asked for clarification in the future, I think I made it clear that me using delete left a null object behind and that I didn't want that
Console wouldn't help at all with that issue as no code errors were made
swift jungle
Console will always help.
earnest phoenix
hoi i may look dumb but i just wanna ask how do i add score.points a certain values?
score.points++; this add 1 to member points
and i have tried score.points + 23; to add 23 points but it didnt work
swift jungle
score.points += 23;
swift jungle

does anyone know a way to add a say command for a discord.py bot
sinful pawn

I can use both d.js and eris at the same time on a single bot no?
tawny panther
a say command it is meant to repeat what a user says and deletes the command usage
like this !say <example text>
modest maple
that would just be looking for the command
then if you have the message content an a list
printing the list without the command

i need a bit of help?
with a say command
here is the code i have for it
@ bot.command('say')
async def ping(ctx):

Split_Message[0] = Split_Message[0].upper()

await message.channel.send(f"{Split_Message[1]}")

could you please specify
slender thistle
What do you think Split_message[0] is
tawny panther
noob at coding i am
slender thistle
So learn basics...
tawny panther
Trying to

if Split_Message[0] == "A.SAY":
await message.channel.send(f"{Split_Message[1]}")
i updated it
slender thistle
Test it
slender thistle
Are you using the bot.event deco on on_message
tawny panther
what do you mean?
slender thistle
Ya'll devs need to learn basics before getting to complex shit...
Do you know what a decorator is
And why are you not using the commands extension for your say command
modest maple
bruh when i gave you example code i didnt mean copy it and expect it to instantly work
slender thistle
Giving example code nowadays equals to the "dev" expecting to be spoonfed all the time
modest maple
yup smh
slender thistle
and while spoonfeed is discouraged, idk how else we are supposed to explain complex things when they haven't bothered doing the basics
tawny panther
hey i am trying to learn
slender thistle
Python basics, not a lib
modest maple
when you dont know the basics
tawny panther
it not my fault that the guides online can't be freaking clear
slender thistle
It's not our fault either
quartz kindle
because the guides are made for people who already know the basics
tawny panther
all of my knowlage i had to learn by looking at the code
modest maple
like for example:
do you know what a subrutine is
what a class is
what inheritance means
how async modules work
what the basics like .upper() .lower() work
how lists and dicts work
hows var types work
tawny panther
i look up basic variable and get barely anything on it making it harder for me to learn those variables
modest maple
you only need to go into the shell and have a play around
slender thistle
Don't look things up on the go
earnest phoenix
you won't learn to multiply just by looking at the results, you have to understand how it works
same analogy applies here
modest maple
I started doing discord bots after i knew how Classes, subrutines, dicts all the basics worked
and even then when i first started it took me some time to understand what was going on
but i didnt expect to be spoon fed everything
cuz thats not a good way to learn
tawny panther
i keep the code at hand now i know which varible will do what once i see it run
for example i looked once at a basic response command and knew which variable triggered the command which one was reply

do i violate discord tos if i log some messages to a website

If without consent, yes

the webhook password is just a way of confirming that DBL is the one which made the request

if they are bot commands?
slender thistle
Depends ig
You should request for the user's permission either way
If your bot states that the command usage will show the message content on a website, you should be good

ok ill just add something like that to the help embed footer

the docs example says that the token is stored in an environment variable
// const dbl = new DBL(bot.config.DBLTOKEN, { webhookServer: server, webhookAuth: '' }, bot);
//dbl.webhook.on(`ready`, hook => {
// console.log(`Webhook is up and running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);

So this was my first time submitting a bot. It was declined bc the description was filled with "spam junk" ..not really helpful for correcting it. What should the description be filled with? I was under the impression it was for the commands?

no its the detailed description of your bot
so what it does
how it works
why its diffrent to all the others
examples of commands
customising the page

I have an iDrac system with Ubuntu installed which I access via a virtual console inside iDRAC/SSH, and the dedi boots into PXE. Im just not sure exactly how to reinstall Ubuntu on the machine. Trying to get rid of my current install and start fresh with a new Ubuntu
I dont see any options within IDRAC 6 enterprise that I can use to re/uninstall the OS
solar wraith
does it have a CDrom drive?
other wise you will have to create a bootable USB drive
undone rose
Probably the server is in a datacenter nowhere near me
I use IDRAC to remote into the machine
I had a bunch of options for OS choice when i first booted it
solar wraith
PXE is network boot
unless your inside that network you cant
or know where they have stored their immages
undone rose
But I remote into it during that boot so id have access to the machine as it boots
solar wraith
you would be best served asking for their help
undone rose
Ah
solar wraith
yes but i have no idea how to help you
undone rose
Yeah not sure where their images are
solar wraith
give em a call or an email
undone rose
But PXE is where id reinstall right?
Or is there something in the virtual console inside idrac where id do it
modest maple
you should be able todo it via virtual console
undone rose
Sorry im server admin illiterate
modest maple
providing its enabled
solar wraith
yes

@earnest phoenix its still not accepting my token
earnest phoenix
what is your code
solar wraith
probably botched it
using System.Reflection;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Discord;
using Discord.Commands;
using Discord.WebSocket;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
namespace tanki_online_alpha

string value;
bool toDelete = false;

// If necessary, create it.
if (value == null)
{
Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("token", "(had my token here)"));
toDelete = true;
// Now retrieve it.
value = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("token"));
Console.WriteLine($"token: {value}\n");
public static void Main(string[] args)

_client.Log += Log;

{
Console.WriteLine(msg.ToString());
return Task.CompletedTask;
}
// Remember to keep token private or to read it from an
// external source! In this case, we are reading the token
// from an environment variable. If you do not know how to set-up

await _client.LoginAsync(TokenType.Bot,
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("token"));
await _client.StartAsync();
// Block this task until the program is closed.
await Task.Delay(-1);

}
}```and is there an env variable named token

you are annoying at this point, @sage bobcat
earnest phoenix
well
solar wraith
what syntaxis do i need for that?
solar wraith
kinda
earnest phoenix
you are on the right track but you expect your code to read an environment variable that doesn't exist
to see how to set one google your os and append "set env var" to it
solar wraith
ah
i see
so i need to declare the environment variable and supply that with the token
earnest phoenix
correct
solar wraith
see when you take a programming language you know a sister of (in this case C++) it becomes much MUCH more easier :3
quartz kindle
why dont you just hardcode it lol
solar wraith
cuz hardcode is gæ
earnest phoenix
not really
quartz kindle
setting and getting it via env variables from the same code
quartz kindle
lol
earnest phoenix
mobile scrolling dum
earnest phoenix
the whole point of using env vars is so you don't actually put your token directly into the code
earnest phoenix
Can someone send me kick command for bot
quartz kindle
yeah, you put it in your system's environment variables
loud salmon
we dont spoonfeed here @earnest phoenix
solar wraith

earnest phoenix
Where them?
solar wraith
i feel stupid
loud salmon
not here lol

@earnest phoenix not here

solar wraith
this is where the line between sysadmin and dev fade i geuss
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix if you want codes, go to stackoverflow lol
solar wraith
i knew it was a thing though
earnest phoenix
Is that server?
quartz kindle
no, its a website
earnest phoenix
Oh k
quartz kindle
how about you do some debugging? like print all your system's environment variables to see if your token even exists there
earnest phoenix
i suggest Console.WriteLine or debug with breakpoints to see if it's actually set

const artists = []

artists.push(artist.name)

description: `◽ Album: ${track.album.name}\n◽ Artist(s): FILLER`,

i think the issue is around the array part @fervent oyster
ok discord
solar wraith
@earnest phoenix was that token set up correct?
trim saddle
just indent how you feel
earnest phoenix
yes but reset it and update it @solar wraith
fervent oyster
@trim saddle dont use const, it prevents the array from changing, use let
the array is basically read only now
with const

#development etiquette
- If you know something, and someone asks a question about that thing, don't shit on them for asking. Either help them or stay quiet. If you don't have anything nice or helpful to say, keep quiet.
- This channel exists to help people. If you're not feeling helpful, your not wanted in this channel.
- Keep in mind that we started as beginners once, so be nice. Helping people helps us all. The more knowledgable the development community as a whole is, the more we all benefit.
- Don't say random, un-helpful, unrelated jargon to try to make yourself sound smart, if anything it makes you look dumber.
- If you can't answer someones question, don't try to extrapolate your knowledge from something else, you'll most likely confuse everyone involved.
- Don't ask to ask (eg. "can I ask a question"), this channel exists for questions, you don't need permission to ask one.
- Keep inside jokes in responses to a minimum, they're likely to confuse the person asking for help.
- No language/library wars, it makes everyone involved look like a dick.

did moose just write rules for one channel
quartz kindle

undone rose
Rules were needed
earnest phoenix
restart the process/os
earnest phoenix
try to
solar wraith
execute command shutdown /r /f /t 0
earnest phoenix
sometimes it needs a restart to apply the change
quartz kindle
you can also use array.map() to turn that for loop into a one liner

How come I'm getting a 401 on https://discordapp.com/api/gateway/bot
Is it not an Authorization header with the bot token that you're supposed to add?
solar wraith
xD
@earnest phoenix same here
aaahhhhh
@quartz kindle was using the spilled token
so there we go
earnest phoenix
You're stuck on the same problem ?
solar wraith
yes
but you shouldnt acces the gateway like that
you should supply it with a token
quartz kindle
are you trying to use the rest api or the gateway websocket?
earnest phoenix
rest api to get the socket endpoint
quartz kindle
without a library?
solar wraith
bad idea
quartz kindle
there are many libraries that handle that part for you, are you trying to make your own library?
earnest phoenix
I'm trying to use this as a learning exercise
I tried setting my bot token like an OAuth athorization header but that doesn't seem to work
solar wraith
krrggg huston we have a confirmed launch
earnest phoenix
How'd you set the bot token?
solar wraith
enviorment table
modest maple
@solar wraith i love the file path xD
earnest phoenix
oauth token type is Bearer
earnest phoenix
bot token type is Bot
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix THANK YOU
solar wraith
and now what
earnest phoenix
not yet, this only give me back the websocket I need to open :p
solar wraith
now we gonna add a simple ping pong command
:3
wait
can i also get the bots name?
earnest phoenix
Maybe I should write my own library
you will most likely need to go to a therapist appointment while doing that
solar wraith
that made me laugh
earnest phoenix
lol, I believe it - going through all the documentation
discords api is so inconsistent and constantly changes
solar wraith
alright cry is there a way to have my bot name extracted from the api and printed to the console?
just yes or no
earnest phoenix
yes
earnest phoenix
you don't even have to make a request to the api
earnest phoenix
its returned through the gateway after logging in
solar wraith
ah
earnest phoenix
so its cached in the client property
bitter sundial
@fervent oyster @trim saddle const doesn't make an array unchangeable
it's true you can't rewrite it like artists = 'I'm something else' but artists.push() still works
valid frigate
const means you can't overwrite the value itself, eg a new array
fervent oyster
i never knew that
valid frigate
but you can stil modify the array lmao
late hill
same thing for object properties basically
trim saddle
hmm.
solar wraith
Dangit
i cant get it to call a different C# file
cuz i like code to be easy to look at
so general commands go into a file general.CS but how do i call this back to main?
polar pier
Tell it to import it / grab it
Like you would python with import
Can't remember what C# is
Thing CPP is include xyz
solar wraith
yeah
i know
i know C++
i will look into it tommorow
other wise i will stare my self blind at it

Hey, I bought an Raspberry PI 2 days ago.
I set up all my bots there, but I wanted to create an website too...
So, I installed all of the packages (apache2, etc..) but:
My Raspberry Public IP (starting on 185.x) is not responding - and all things on localhost are going on!
trim saddle
let artists = []
for (const artist in track.artists) {
artists.push(artist.name)
}
this still doesn't work
blissful scaffold
because you are changing artist it cant be a const
trim saddle
wait wha
blissful scaffold
every time you loop you overwrite the value for artist
trim saddle
ohhhhhhhhhhh.
blissful scaffold
use let artist in ...
the artists array can be a const
const artists = []
for (let artist in track.artists) {
artists.push(artist.name)
}
Wait, what? What do you mean by "because you are changing artist it can't be a const"?
blissful scaffold
when you use a const you are not allowed to overwrite it
you are allowed to change what is inside a const list/object
sudden geyser
Yeah, but what are they overriding in the loop?
blissful scaffold
the value of artist changes each time the loop loops
sudden geyser
Yes, but I don't think that's their issue
I think they're looking for of and not in
blissful scaffold
oh, looks like i was wrong, the examples im looking at now are using const there
amber fractal
Wouldnt matter how you defined it really... It works with let and var too, just when it's const the value is, what do you know, constant

@lavish shuttle You need to append a flag to use ES5 features

Which flag?

add type to your package.json: json { "type": "module" } and run with node --experimental-modules app.js
