before you dive into classes

#

make sure to capitalize class names

#

example iAmRetarded turns into class IAmRetarded

#

i am indeed retarded

languid dragon Nov 24, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

yes because it was an example

quartz kindle Nov 24, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

capitalization is not a requirment

#

its just what people usually do

#

you can just as well do your own thing and make all classes lowercase and all variables uppercase lol

as long as dj is a role object and your on stable

heavy marsh Nov 24, 2019, 11:15 PM

#

I am trying to make the command avaiable for users with dj role or for users with MANAGE_MESSAGES permissions

#

i removed the dj role from me an it didnt work

earnest phoenix Nov 24, 2019, 11:16 PM

#

well that's how you have it coded

#

if they don't have the role or permission then...

heavy marsh Nov 24, 2019, 11:16 PM

#

I mean i am the owner of the server

#

so i have MANAGE_MESSAGES permission

earnest phoenix Nov 24, 2019, 11:17 PM

#

ok

heavy marsh Nov 24, 2019, 11:17 PM

#

but the command send the errors

earnest phoenix Nov 24, 2019, 11:17 PM

#

|| means or and you said you don't have the role so it's functioning as expected, right?

heavy marsh Nov 24, 2019, 11:17 PM

#

ok wait

#

    if (!message.member.roles.has(dj.id) || !message.member.hasPermission("MANAGE_MESSAGES"))
    return [utils.timed_msg(utils.no_perm("You need the \`DJ Role\` or \`MANAGE_MESSAGES\` permission to use this command!"), 5000)];

earnest phoenix Nov 24, 2019, 11:19 PM

#

what's the error

heavy marsh Nov 24, 2019, 11:19 PM

#

it says "You need the `DJ Role` or `MANAGE_MESSAGES` permission to use this command!"

earnest phoenix Nov 24, 2019, 11:21 PM

#

ik this isn't much of a solution but why not use &&

if they don't have the DJ role and they don't have the permission to send messages then...

heavy marsh Nov 24, 2019, 11:21 PM

#

I dont want that ....

#

you don't have the role so it's returning that message

#

 if (!havepermission )
    return [utils.timed_msg(utils.no_perm("You need the \`DJ Role\` or \`MANAGE_MESSAGES\` permission to use this command!"), 5000)];```

loud salmon Nov 25, 2019, 4:32 AM

@oak minnow

Get the message content + any attatchments
store them all in variables
Get the channel you want to send the message to
Either make a fancy embed or just send it raw. doing smth like channel.sendMessage(rawMessage + attatchments)

It’s possible to record audio with the discord api if I remember right. Would it be against the ToS to do that? I feel like if you have a terms of service thing you would be fine but just looking for some else’s opinion

Hello

#

I have an add command for a music bot

#

let queue = {};

And the queue is in the file add.js

But if i want to use the queue in the play.js i can't....

tranquil drum Nov 25, 2019, 6:02 AM

#

you can hold the queue object in play.js and pass it to add.js so it can add to it

#

or make it somewhere else and pass it to both scripts

earnest phoenix Nov 25, 2019, 6:04 AM

#

you can hold the queue object in play.js and pass it to add.js so it can add to it

#

How?

tranquil drum Nov 25, 2019, 6:05 AM

#

actually what i think what i would do is create it in some main script that requires the other two

#

then pass it to both

earnest phoenix Nov 25, 2019, 6:06 AM

#

Oh okay

#

Ty

#

This is a nice idea

#

index.js => let queue = {};

play.js and add.js => let { queue } = require("../index.js")

But when i add i have =>

                if (!queue.hasOwnProperty(message.guild.id)) queue[message.guild.id] = {}, queue[message.guild.id].playing = false, queue[message.guild.id].songs = [];

TypeError: Cannot read property 'hasOwnProperty' of undefined```

tranquil drum Nov 25, 2019, 6:29 AM

#

don't use require to get the queue object

#

you have to pass it by reference either with a method or a property

restive furnace Nov 25, 2019, 6:32 AM

#

you should do it to <client>.queue to get it all files

#

like <client>.queue = {}; on index
and <client>.queue[message.guild.id] = {}; ln play.js and add.js

earnest phoenix Nov 25, 2019, 6:34 AM

#

Oh okay ty

#

I'm bad pepowot

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 6:34 AM

#

fyi that just makes the queue a property of your client object

Yup

those of you with bigger bots, mind discussing your backup routine with me? what do you back up, how often, and how do you do it?

#

currently, i have all my source code in two git repositories, one on github and one on my lan, and i backup my sql database to a remote machine every night at midnight using a simple script that does mysqldump to a bzip2'd file with a datestamp in, deleting files over 30 days old.
should this be enough? to me it seems enough, as its more than most are doing i guess.

modest maple Nov 25, 2019, 7:52 AM

#

I have any files on a GitHub

#

And then back up everything to onedrive

#

Every 24hr

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:52 AM

#

the critical thing to me is my database. without it, my bot is basically a blank slate

modest maple Nov 25, 2019, 7:52 AM

#

Same

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:53 AM

#

i can restore the bot's source code as simple as git clone --recursive, but if i lost the database...

late hill Nov 25, 2019, 7:53 AM

#

The code is on github and on my local machine

#

I backup db once a day keeping that backup on vps

#

Once a week I put a backpack on my local machine

#

In case the VPS would entirely die

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:54 AM

#

good plan 🙂

late hill Nov 25, 2019, 7:54 AM

#

I've only ever needed backups because I messed something up

#

lol

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:55 AM

#

should i even bother with stuff like string[] instead of using List<string> in C#

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:55 AM

#

lol yeah thats been my experience, but things like bots tend to attaract skiddiots with a desire to prove themselves, dont want anyone to wipe my box or anything and have no backup to roll back to

#

@mossy vine isnt List<String> a linked list?

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

i have no idea lmao

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

if it is, its much slower to access an arbitary element by index, but faster to iterate the list... in that case, if youre accessing aribtary elements youre best using an array

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

but also arrays are garbage from what ive tried

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

yes, List<> is a doubly linked list

#

so if you want fast access to arbitrary indicies, use array

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:56 AM

#

they dont have nearly as many useful methods and stuff as List

#

but if i dont care about speed can i just settle for List

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

or dictionary if you want best of both worlds

#

you should care about speed 😄

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

dictionary is key value which is not what i need lol

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

unles youre only storing like 10 elements

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

25 lmao

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

may be ok, depends on how often you access that list

mossy vine Nov 25, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

i dont care much about speed, its just experimentation stuff

green kestrel Nov 25, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

its also faster to insert into a list than an array

#

an array must be re-allocated to insert into it

#

an insert into a list is just the adjustment of two pointers

Discord.js

Discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

slender thistle Nov 25, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

Is it a public bot or some self-hosted one

fathom cave Nov 25, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

I want to use this bot (hopefully) so members of my discord can earn points by being active and sending messages.

Once they reach 500 points they can use the points to buy they're own discord channel. Is this possible?

#

And it's the "points" bot

summer torrent Nov 25, 2019, 6:24 PM

#

yes

fathom cave Nov 25, 2019, 6:24 PM

And I can set what the shop offers correct?

Or what they can buy with the points

south swallow Nov 25, 2019, 6:25 PM

yeah

its on you to figure it out, not us

You said good luck like it'll be a Hassel or hard to configure

south swallow Nov 25, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

well its not going to be a 1-2-3, most peeps in discord expect stuff for free, you bot usecase applies more if patreons/donators get special roles

#

idk about their own channel

fathom cave Nov 25, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

Then it doesn't seem possible as others said.

south swallow Nov 25, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

its feasable

fathom cave Nov 25, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

Unless if they get the role they can request they're own channel

south swallow Nov 25, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

but i dont know how discord user will react to paid channels, i mean will they be able to talk with anyone since they are on their own in the channel?

#

how would you go about this?

fathom cave Nov 25, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

It's used for personal advertising and posting update content for they're game. In this case an rsps.

#

RuneScape Private Servers.

#

So they earn points, with those points they buy the role, then request they're own channel

quartz kindle Nov 25, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

if its a public bot listed on the website, you have to go to their support server

#

if its an open source bot, you have to host it and configure it yourself

#

we can help with coding and setting up hosting and shit, but we dont really help setting up public bots, they have their own support severs for that

@cunning tinsel it does that for your emotes that have the same name, so you could tell which one it is

I mean if you never use the key value

Just returning an array would be enough

That's what the filter method in a regular Map does I think anyway

quartz kindle Nov 25, 2019, 8:59 PM

well, if you're gonna extend it like that, its always better to return itself so you can chain it

if your database supports it, you can use ORDER BY cast() or ORDER BY convert()

How can i make this?

what

#

client.channels.map(c => {if(c.type =="voice"){return console.log(c.name)}})

This return all of voice channels but it should only give the names of the channels in which it is connected

keep track of the channels you're connected to manually

or even better, keep track of the VoiceConnection objects manually

green kestrel Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

are you sharding your bot across 4 or 5 shards for some reason?

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

well, i'm unsure by myself

#

nope

green kestrel Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

hmm, well, im out 😄

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

i'm not using shards

#

let me try something

green kestrel Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

are you using the wrong token?

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

no, i should be using the right one

#

one sec

green kestrel Nov 26, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

(i have two tokens and if i use my dev token my bot has 2 guilds, if i use live it has 280)

sudden geyser Nov 26, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

client.guilds is a map, so it's size and not length.
Try logging message.client.guilds to the console and see what you get

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

i'm using 2 bots, one for development and the other one for the stable, soon deprecated, but i implemented the DBL api in the dev one

#

hm, looks like i'll have to implement the dbl api in the old one

green kestrel Nov 26, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

hmm. i just had a crazy idea.

#

its probably completely wrong.

#

but what if, .size was a writeable property, and somewhere you did a guilds.size = 2 rather than == 2...

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

nope, first time using the guilds.size

green kestrel Nov 26, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

i doubt its writeable by you anyway

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

yep

#

alright i'll spend my next 50 minutes of my life trying to figure out how to fix this, brb

sudden geyser Nov 26, 2019, 2:29 PM

#

You can't write to it.

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:29 PM

#

alright so, little update

#

the bot counts the servers

#

buuut, DBL's card stays on 1

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

it takes a while to update on dbl

#

that is, if you made an api request to update it lol

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:51 PM

#

if you made an api request to update it lol

nope, i just added

const client = new Discord.Client();
const dbl = new DBL(process.env.BOTGG, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });
dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
  console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
});
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
  console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`);
});```

and the vote thing doesn't even work

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 2:53 PM

#

uh

#

what

#

weren't you just talking about the server count?

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 2:54 PM

#

yep

#

i just said that i just added this, nothing else, someone said that i have to manually update the counter

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 3:03 PM

#

uh

#

do you know that webhooks are completely irrelevant to the server count

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

never worked with anything else other than discord.js

#

i barely know what i'm doing 😂

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

read the docs 👏

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

Might help if you actually read the docs then

#

Damn it cry beat me to it

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

already reading the docs

#

client.on('ready', () => {
    setInterval(() => {
        dbl.postStats(client.guilds.size);
    }, 1800000);
    console.log("Stats Updated on top.gg")
});```
this should be ok, right?

#

but now i'm thinking about something...
since i'm using glitch.org, every change i make restarts completely the bot

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

rent a proper vps then

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:14 PM

#

i already set up a throttle, but i'm afraid that i might accidentally request too many times to upload the stats in a small amount of time

#

@earnest phoenix can't afford a vps at the moment

#

i don't have any kind of credit card/debt card

#

yet

blissful scaffold Nov 26, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

Get a raspberry pi or something similar and self host it on that

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

i give up, i'll see what i can do

quartz kindle Nov 26, 2019, 3:16 PM

#

renting a vps wont magically fix his issue tho lul

blissful scaffold Nov 26, 2019, 3:16 PM

#

if you don't have the money to rent/buy hosting then you will have to accept the crappy service that you get on free hosts

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

@quartz kindle i was thinking about the same thing

#

wait, can i request an update every 5 minutes?

quartz kindle Nov 26, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

well, yeah

#

your setInterval wont fire immediately, the first call is always after the timeout

#

but the dbl module has an internal interval that also sends updates

#

so you'd need to disable that

#

or drop the package and do your own request

#

its not hard

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:19 PM

#

i'm trying to do this because the image won't update, it says that my bot is only in one server

#

and the image doesn't properly update

#

the bot-displayed image shows 3 upvotes, but when i open the original image it shows 4 upvotes

quartz kindle Nov 26, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

upvotes are inconsistent

#

dont worry about them

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

what about the server count?

quartz kindle Nov 26, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

server count should update right away, but your code doesnt do that

#

setInterval will only fire after one full interval

rugged minnow Nov 26, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

(i removed the setInterval)

quartz kindle Nov 26, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

dm me your bot page

Get straight to the question instead of saying "I need help"

fallen arch Nov 26, 2019, 4:19 PM

oh okay

#

i keep getting this error
UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'pollchannel' of undefined
i know why its giving this error, because the guild did not set any channels
thats why i want to return message saying please set the channel

#

Code:

#

https://sourceb.in/76bfd719a7

#

i did run check but its not working

slender thistle Nov 26, 2019, 4:22 PM

#

You could check if pollchannels contains message.guild.id

fallen arch Nov 26, 2019, 4:22 PM

i did

slender thistle Nov 26, 2019, 4:22 PM

Or literally a simple try-catch

not returning message for some reason

okay wait

Yup, I see the if statement now

so?

i dont know why its not returning the message

slender thistle Nov 26, 2019, 4:25 PM

Huh

fallen arch Nov 26, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

?

vital lark Nov 26, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

maybe pollchannel doesn't exist in the object

#

console log the object

fallen arch Nov 26, 2019, 4:29 PM

#

okay

#

nothing

#

my bot can set the poll channel but if the poll channel is not set then how do i return a message saying its not set

#

like when you use the poll command if its not set then return message

#

i check if the channel was set with if statement and its not working

I'm kinda confused I'm trying to reward people for voting but I'm not sure how to create the webhook that DBL connects to

loud salmon Nov 26, 2019, 6:12 PM

#

you need to make your own webserver in your own language and either host it alongside your bot or in the same application @vague kite

#

for example in java my code looks something like this

bot.start() // do shit here
webserver.start() // port, url to listen to, endpoint, etc

vague kite Nov 26, 2019, 6:17 PM

Okay Thanks will give that a go

I have an economy leaderboard in my bot, in my MySQL database I have the "bag" and "bank" rows, in the command you can see the first 10 with money in the bank or the first 10 with money in the bag, but how can I see those who have more money in total adding bag + bank?

xp.query('SELECT id, xp, level FROM xplevel ORDER BY xp DESC', (err, rows) => {
         if (err) {

short PSA: webhooks are basically reverse api requests, instead of you making requests to a website, the website makes requests to you instead, which is why you need to expose a port

late hill Nov 26, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

Haven't used sql in a while but I believe you can ORDER BY x + y @distant plank

#

You could also add the sum as a new collumn in your query and then order by whatever you named that

Hey, I'm trying to make a regex that converts every ES6 import to CommonJS require()

#

But it messes up the code

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 7:44 PM

#

by the time you spend writing the regex to do it for you, you could've ported it all manually

knotty steeple Nov 26, 2019, 7:45 PM

#

are you that lazy

lavish shuttle Nov 26, 2019, 7:45 PM

Oh yeah, I would love copy pasting a bunch of const for over 300 files

That is sure a fun thing

Eh, not necessarily

knotty steeple Nov 26, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

why are you trying to port it anyway :)

lavish shuttle Nov 26, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

Because I made a dumb mistake and hit convert to ES6 module in VSCode

#

which now means my bot doesn't work

knotty steeple Nov 26, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

then hit convert to commonjs

#

mmLol

convert it

do the thing urself

I messed up and converted my bot to ES6 without realizing that node.js didn't support it and that Babel wouldn't be able to compile it with the code working

#

and I can't undo it all, so I wanted to build a regex to undo it for me

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

calm down dudes

sudden geyser Nov 26, 2019, 8:02 PM

You could manually type it (which is probably more efficient), but I think the problem with your script is you don't really handle anything that's a keyword. You only handle anything within braces and * as. You could add a third "OR" divider and make it catch all until it's hit a space.

np, also can you send the regex

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 8:04 PM

#

If you want to send me the regex that you're using, I'll help you correct it. But I don't think that correcting the regex is actually the correct solution here. What you should do is configure your babyl RC properly

lavish shuttle Nov 26, 2019, 8:04 PM

#

import\s*(?:\{?\s*(.*)\s*\}|\*\s*as\s*(.*))\s*from\s*([^;]*);*

But lets try to configure babel correctly

pls stop saying babyl its babel xd

#

Here, I'll send you my bot code too

sudden geyser Nov 26, 2019, 8:08 PM

#

I added another "OR" and matched everything: import\s*(?:\{?\s*(.*)\s*\}|\w+|\*\s*as\s*(.*))\s*from\s*([^;]*);*

The groups you'll be matching and such are really up to you, assuming this is all you were looking for.

@lavish shuttle when using es6, you import default by stating import Thing from 'file'

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 8:27 PM

@lavish shuttle if you want to require() a file, and that file does export default, then yes, you need to reference it by require('thing').default

import() returns a promise kannaSpook

how will that work

@sudden geyser yes, import can be used in that way, but it can also be used in es6 basically as a require statement

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 8:59 PM

#

uh you mean oauth?

#

yeah

#

ok

#

the redirect uri is where your user gets redirected after they authorize your app

#

the authorization process adds a ?code= url parameter to your redirect uri

#

so when your user gets redirected to your website

#

you can extract that code

#

exchange it for an access token and boom

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:02 PM

#

yes that's what I was referring to

#

I don't have a website for my bot, so would I have to create one in order to get the oauth code?

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:02 PM

#

yes

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

why is having a website a necessity to extracting the code?

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:04 PM

because that's how oauth2 works

you can't utilise oauth2 features if you don't have a website

#

my bot is in a bunch of servers so could you elaborate on that exception?

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

the link where users invite your bot to a server

#

is a part of oauth2

#

it's the only case where you don't need a website to complete an action (because it doesn't need a redirect uri)

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:07 PM

#

ah okay so that's just the oauth2 authorization for server invites

#

so I can't use that for getting an individual users connections

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

nope

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

alright thanks for your help

#

I'm not very familiar with hosting a website, but the only need I have for it is to fetch the access codes

#

So I need to figure out something very simple

#

but when someone visits I can somehow check the URL they are using and extract the code from that?

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

uh what

#

can you elaborate your question

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

I don't have a website for my bot, so I'd need to set something up in order to get the auth codes when users authorize the bot to see their "connections"

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

seems a little more complicated than it needs tobe

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

you need a website

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

there's no other way to go around it

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

also oath2 has alot of stuff you need to set up with it

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

yeah I understand that, now I'm trying to think of the easiest way to get a website set up since my only purpose for it is to get the code

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

why do you need the codes anyway

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

a simple api server would be enough

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

^

#

like from what i can tell you dont need to get permission from the user to access there profile and personal info etc...

#

or grant yourself access to other files

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

they want to get user connections

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

if your hosting it yourself

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

user connections are accessible through a user token and through oauth only

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

but why do you need connections?

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

to get the users steam account so I can have my bot integrated with their steam

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

wouldnt it be easier just to have a opt-in feature

#

e.g GameStats takes your steam profile ID

#

and then you just need to make your account profile public

#

but it works just as well

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

someone can fake being someone else by doing that

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

yeah that would be easier but it also allows someone to put another person's ID in

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

seems a bit overkill if you ask me

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:21 PM

#

yeah that's making me consider if it's worth it

#

gona look into setting up a simple API server first like cry suggested

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:24 PM

#

cuz another thing to also make note of if you do it via connections if people use a diffrent engine, program to play the game / account then it wont work

#

so in some cases allowing the user to add their own accounts makes more sense

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

@lavish shuttle don't know what to tell you

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

what if I used oauth2 and made the users DM the bot with the code so I don't have to fetch it from a website

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

kinda seems like you don't know what you're doing with es6 tbh

#

or maybe you have too many variables changing too quickly in your env

modest maple Nov 26, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

problem still stands that it will only work for steam games

#

which rules out OW, fortnite etc...

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

this bot is specific to CSGO

#

and if they have those accounts connected to their profile then I'd be able to see those too

lavish shuttle Nov 26, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

Could you check the bot code for me? Its on GitLab

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

what if I used oauth2 and made the users DM the bot with the code so I don't have to fetch it from a website
big security issue

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

yeah that's what i was thinking

#

not sure why it would be though

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

you'd still need a website so it redirects the user to that website with the code

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

is that so I can exchange the code immediately and invalidate it

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

pretty much, the code is there acting as a protection layer

#

you need to exchange it for an access token

#

and exchanging requires you to match the client secret

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

but couldn't I just have the bot take the code and use it with the client secret to do the exchange

#

Not saying that's a good idea though

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

not really

#

someone else can use their code

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

yeah

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:31 PM

#

that process is so quick and automatic on most websites using oauth that the user doesn't even get to see the code

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:31 PM

#

they do that by making the link redirect?

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:31 PM

#

yeah

#

i'm doing that on a website i'm working on

#

https://uwavy.com/

#

basically as soon as the user hits the redirect uri the webserver attempts to grab the code from the url and just redirects the user back to the homepage

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:33 PM

#

cool

#

yeah I'm thinking I'll just set up a simple rest api server with flask

#

and the bot can interface with that easily

#

would that be good to do what I want?

earnest phoenix Nov 26, 2019, 9:36 PM

#

don't work with python so i don't know what you would use, but yeah a simple rest server is good

paper flame Nov 26, 2019, 9:36 PM

yeah my bot is currently in python but I guess the server wouldn't have to be since it's a separate entity
