@earnest phoenix can you give a big explanation?

[round ridge]

Hello i need a little help with my bot witch its in JavaScript i am using discord.js
so i wanted to use fetchUser to get user tag and when user cant be find i want to show his id

[violet nimbus]

@round ridge hello,
If you don't know lemme tell you that fetchUser if for user account.
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Client?scrollTo=fetchUser

[round ridge]

i am using it for bot i use normally fetchUser but i want when he will not find it just reply with id

[quartz kindle]

check if a result was found

show your fetchuser code

[round ridge]

i used it like that

const user = await bot.fetchUser(userr).catch(error => { userr })

[quartz kindle]

ok so then check if user exists

if(!user) { user = userr }

if user does not exist, replace it with id

[round ridge]

ye i know

@quartz kindle i did what you told me and still reply with error:

(node:26760) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: DiscordAPIError: Unknown User

:p

[quartz kindle]

@round ridge change it to await bot.fetchUser(userr).catch(() => {})

[round ridge]

still errored:

(node:26928) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Assignment to constant variable.

[quartz kindle]

do you have const user anywhere else?

[round ridge]

                let MUser = message.author.id;
                if(!userr) return message.reply("ID?");
                let breason = args.join(" ").slice(19);
                if (!breason) return message.channel.send('Specify a reason!')
                const user = await bot.fetchUser(userr).catch(() => {})
                if(!user) { 
                  user = userr 
                }
                const mod = await bot.fetchUser(MUser)

This is full varibles

[quartz kindle]

change const to let

the value of a const cannot be changed

[round ridge]

oh ye i forgot

now is working thx

by fetchUser do i am able to get only that user tag

[quartz kindle]

yes

you can do fetchUser(userr).then(u => u.tag).catch(...)

[round ridge]

oh thx 🙂

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix show code

[ocean frigate]

you should show the code of the help command you use i think

[quartz kindle]

^

[restive furnace]

@ocean frigate 200 iq

[round ridge]

can someone help again
Code:

bot.guilds.members.forEach(member => { if (userr != client.user.id) member.kick(`ModBot Secruiti This User Got Banned For: ${breason}`); });

Error:

(node:27549) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'forEach' of undefined

[winter shell]

how to use lavalink?

[restive furnace]

@round ridgeyou need to first do loop for each guild and then for each the guild members (and i recommend for, not forEach.

[ocean frigate]

FreestyleToday at 2:55 PM
@ocean frigate 200 iq
What do you mean?

[round ridge]

@restive furnace can you help me out how to do loop i never done a loop in any of my projects

[restive furnace]

   Code here
}```

object can be bot guilds example

[round ridge]

and in code i just put what?

desame what i used?

[restive furnace]

you need to use loop-in-loop

like loop(guilds) { loop(members) { code here what u want to do } }

[quartz kindle]

you can use forEach, its just that for has higher performance, although the difference will only be a couple milliseconds

[round ridge]

i still dont understand how to use this

its look dificule

[quartz kindle]

a for loop is a pure/manual loop

while forEach is a helper method on an array that does it for you

the syntax of a for loop is as follows:

[slender thistle]

performance matters
readability matters too

[quartz kindle]

for(initial value; condition; next iteration) {
  // code
}```

[round ridge]

like now i put it all and still get error about loop think

[quartz kindle]

nonono dont copy paste

[round ridge]

okay but how i am able to to that all?

[quartz kindle]

you know what, just use forEach

because anyway you need to convert guilds to an array if you want to use for

but you can use for in

for(let guild in bot.guilds) {
  bot.guilds[guild].members
}```

[round ridge]

rn i am thinking what is that i rly never used any of loops stuff

[slender thistle]

Is there a performance difference between a casual for and for in loops

[quartz kindle]

for is still faster yes

@round ridge the concept of a loop is simply a block of code that repeats until a condition is met

there are many uses for loops, for instance, go over a list and repeat a block of code on each item of a list until the list ends

[round ridge]

for(let guild in bot.guilds) {
  bot.guilds[guild].members
}```

@quartz kindle so if i would do some like that do i add forEach ?

to like check users

[slender thistle]

Technically infinite loops are considered loops too, right?

[quartz kindle]

yup

you can do it two ways

[restive furnace]

while(true){}

one way

[quartz kindle]

bot.guilds.forEach(guild => {
  guild.members.forEach(member => {
    // member
  })
})

or

for(let guild in bot.guilds) {
  for(let member in bot.guilds[guild].members) {
    // bot.guilds[guild].members[member]
  }
}``` or any combination of them

forEach is more readable and easier to use, but for is faster

for can be used for many other things, while forEach can only be used for arrays and collections, or other custom list-like things

for in can be used in objects, forEach cant

for is a loop that you create and manipulate however you want, forEach is a loop that is only available if the data you want to use it on provides it

[marble juniper]

you can use for to get for example the length of the text (which you don't need since the length property does that)

and other things

for (statement 1; statement 2; statement 3) {
  // code block to be executed
}

or well if you want every element in an array

for (let index = 0; index < array.length; index++) {
             const element = array[index];  
         }

if you want to learn about about it visit this site https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_loop_for.asp

also you should not forget this

[dense drift]

Anyone know how to use a message collector in PMs?

[restive furnace]

same way as in server?

[dense drift]

Yeah

I just need to send something like, reply with accept or deny, then it will watch what they say, and do something depending on what they said.

This is my code right now.. I'm a little lost.

        else if(args[0] == "invite"){
            let chnv = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `voice_${uid}` && c.type == "voice")
            let chn = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `chat_${uid}` && c.type == "text")
            let cate = server.channels.find(c => c.name == `party_${uid}` && c.type == "category")
            let role = msg.guild.roles.find(role => role.name === `${uid}`)
            let invm = msg.guild.member(msg.mentions.users.first() || msg.guild.members.get(args[0]));

            //console.log(invm.user)

            

            invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`)
            const waiting = await new Discord.MessageCollector(invm, m => msg.author.id === `${invm.user.id}`, { time: 15000 })
            await waiting.on('collect', async m => {
                if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept"){
                    await invm.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has accepted your invite!`)
                } else if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"){


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
                else {
                    invm.send(`Invalid response! Please ask for a new invite!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
            
        })```

[restive furnace]

you could do ur custom msg collector like

on message -> if message channel type is dm and author is the wanted -> if message deny (-> function) or message accerpt (-> function) or no message (-> function)

[violet nimbus]

@restive furnace

const dbl = new DBL(DBLAPITOKEN, bot);

// Optional events
dbl.on("posted", () => {
  console.log("Server count posted!");
});

dbl.on("error", e => {
  console.log(`Oops! ${e}`);
});``` is that enough?

Or how to do it?

[dense drift]

Would I have to do that in a top level file, or can I do that in the command?

The accept or deny only applies in this command, it wouldn't apply at any other point.

HMMMMMMMMMM

I'll try something, I'll let you know. 🙂

[violet nimbus]

For server count

@restive furnace??

[earnest phoenix]

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "url" argument must be of type string. Received undefined

Im getting this error but i cant seem to fix it

[quartz kindle]

@violet nimbus yes that is enough

[dense drift]

Hey, Tim's here lol

I'm still lost, if you want to take a look, you tend to be super helpful.

[quartz kindle]

what are you trying to do?

[dense drift]

My code has moved to,

        else if(args[0] == "invite"){
            let chnv = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `voice_${uid}` && c.type == "voice")
            let chn = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `chat_${uid}` && c.type == "text")
            let cate = server.channels.find(c => c.name == `party_${uid}` && c.type == "category")
            let role = msg.guild.roles.find(role => role.name === `${uid}`)
            let invm = msg.guild.member(msg.mentions.users.first() || msg.guild.members.get(args[0]));

            //console.log(invm.user)

            let filter = msg.channel.type.toLowerCase() == 'dm' && m.author.id === `${invm.user.id}`

            invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`)
            const waiting = await new Discord.MessageCollector(filter, { time: 15000 })
            await waiting.on('collect', async m => {
                //if(m.author.id !== `${invm.user.id}`){ return }
                if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept"){
                    
                    await invm.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has accepted your invite!`)
                } else if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"){


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
                else {
                    invm.send(`Invalid response! Please ask for a new invite!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
            
        })```

The new error is ```js
TypeError: Cannot read property 'setMaxListeners' of undefined```

I'm trying to use a messagecollector in pms.

[quartz kindle]

can this command be initiated in dms? or is it a guild command that sends a dm then awaits for it?

[dense drift]

Guild command that sends to dm and awaits for it

[quartz kindle]

then await it and get the channel from it

let dmMessage = await invm.send(); let reply = await dmMessage.channel.awaitMessages(filter)

[dense drift]

dude

[quartz kindle]

check the docs for how to use awaitMessages

[dense drift]

I didn't think to set invm.send()

You're a life saver

[forest sundial]

[quartz kindle]

that code doesnt make any sense

[modest maple]

that is possibly

the most impressive piece of lack of basics knowledge ive ever seen

[dense drift]

I have a new bug, it's odd.

DiscordAPIError: Cannot send an empty message```

That's the error,

```js
else if(args[0] == "invite"){
            let chnv = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `voice_${uid}` && c.type == "voice")
            let chn = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `chat_${uid}` && c.type == "text")
            let cate = server.channels.find(c => c.name == `party_${uid}` && c.type == "category")
            let role = msg.guild.roles.find(role => role.name === `${uid}`)
            let invm = msg.guild.member(msg.mentions.users.first() || msg.guild.members.get(args[0]));

            

            //console.log(invm.user)


            invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`);

            let dmMessage = await invm.send();
            const waiting = dmMessage.channel.createMessageCollector(dmMessage.channel, m => m.author.id === invm.user.id, { time: 500000 });
            waiting.on('collect', async m => {
                //if(m.author.id !== `${invm.user.id}`){ return }
                if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept"){
                    
                    await invm.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has accepted your invite!`)
                } else if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"){


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
                else {
                    invm.send(`Invalid response! Please ask for a new invite!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
            
        })```

That's the code

It is sending the DM to the user in question, it just seems to not be waiting for a response.

[dense drift]

Which part is confusing?

[quartz kindle]

send the message, why are you sending the message then sending nothing right after?

[dense drift]

Oh

OHHH

Call me dumb

lol

Okay, now that that is working LOL,

New issue

TypeError: Function.prototype.apply was called on [object Object], which is a object and not a function```

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix your code is not valid in any programming language i know, learn the basics of how programming works

@dense drift i told you to use channel.awaitMessages()

[dense drift]

        else if(args[0] == "invite"){
            let chnv = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `voice_${uid}` && c.type == "voice")
            let chn = server.channels.find(c => c.name === `chat_${uid}` && c.type == "text")
            let cate = server.channels.find(c => c.name == `party_${uid}` && c.type == "category")
            let role = msg.guild.roles.find(role => role.name === `${uid}`)
            let invm = msg.guild.member(msg.mentions.users.first() || msg.guild.members.get(args[0]));

            

            //console.log(invm.user)


            let dmMessage = await invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`);
            const waiting = dmMessage.channel.createMessageCollector(dmMessage.channel, m => m.author.id === invm.user.id, { time: 500000 });
            waiting.on('collect', async m => {
                //if(m.author.id !== `${invm.user.id}`){ return }
                if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept"){
                    
                    await invm.addRole(role)

                    await invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    await u.send(`${invm.nickname} has accepted your invite!`)
                } else if(m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"){


                    await invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    await u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }
                else {

                }
            
        })```

Code if you need to see it again

[quartz kindle]

you cant use a collector like that

[dense drift]

Ah

Okay, I just didn't want to have to change it all again. Thanks, let me try.

[quartz kindle]

you dont need to use a collector here, you can remove your entire collector code

and look at the docs for how to use awaitMessages

show your "normal" code

this is not normal code

show the full code

show the embed part, and the message send part

[dense drift]

Okay, I've done a bit of code changing, and now I'm even more confused lol.

Also, don't @ tim every time.

                }

            })```

Code

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix delete this const client = new Discord.Client();
then you need to separate the message into arguments, for example let args = message.content.split(" ") then you need to make a different description depending on the argument, for example: ```js
...
.setFooter();

if(args[1] === "utilita") {
avatarEmbed.setDescription(Ciao ${message.author}. Ecco i miei comandi: __**Utilità**__ t!avatar o t!avatar @user: manda l'avatar di chi ha taggato o di sè stesso t!ping: dice i ping del bot t!aiuto: manda in privato i comandi del bot t!help: manda in chat i comandi del bot)
} else if(args[1] === "fun") {
avatarEmbed.setDescription(Ciao ${message.author}. Ecco i miei comandi: __**FUN**__ t!random: manda un numero random t!doge: manda l'emoji del doge t!buonasera: Risponde Buonasera t!ciao o t!ciao @user: il bot ti saluta t!RIP: il bot ti risponde scrivendo RIP)
} else {
avatarEmbed.setDescription(Ciao ${message.author}. Ecco i miei comandi: __**Utilità**__ t!avatar o t!avatar @user: manda l'avatar di chi ha taggato o di sè stesso t!ping: dice i ping del bot t!aiuto: manda in privato i comandi del bot t!help: manda in chat i comandi del bot __**FUN**__ t!random: manda un numero random t!doge: manda l'emoji del doge t!buonasera: Risponde Buonasera t!ciao o t!ciao @user: il bot ti saluta t!RIP: il bot ti risponde scrivendo RIP __**Photoshop**__ t!triggered: Triggera l'immagine profilo di sè stessi o propria t!inversione: Inverte i colori della propria immagine profilo di sè stessi o propria **ULTERIORI INFO USARE t!photoshop help** __**In Costruzione / Riparazione**__ t!nick @user: per cambiare il ick di un utente t!userinfo: manda le info di un utente (non funziona ancora, ma quasi) t!serverinfo: manda le info di un server (non funziona ancora, ma quasi)
);
}

@dense drift this is the example for awaitMessages in the docs: js // Await !vote messages const filter = m => m.content.startsWith('!vote'); // Errors: ['time'] treats ending because of the time limit as an error channel.awaitMessages(filter, { max: 4, time: 60000, errors: ['time'] }) .then(collected => console.log(collected.size)) .catch(collected => console.log(`After a minute, only ${collected.size} out of 4 voted.`));

the filter must be a function that checks what the messages should be to pass it

[dense drift]

Okayyy

I think I understand

Let me give it a shot

Okay, you're a life saver, it's now listening, but it just jumps to the last else every time...

let ug = msg.guild.member(invm.user.id)
            let dmMessage = await invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`);
            let filter = m => m.content.startsWith('accept')

            dmMessage.channel.awaitMessages(filter, {
                max: 1,
                time: 500000 })
            
            .then(async collected => {
                console.log(collected.content)
                if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == 'accept') {
                    ug.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has accepted your invite!`)

                } else if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == "deny") {


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                } else {
                    invm.send(`Invalid response! Please ask for a new invite!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }

            }).catch(() => {

                invm.send(`Timed out, please ask for a new invite from ${u}.`)

            })

It always just says timed out.

[quartz kindle]

what does console.log(collected.content) show?

[dense drift]

undefined

[quartz kindle]

also, your filter should contain all possible answers, not only one

[dense drift]

Ohhhh

Interesting

[quartz kindle]

collected is probably a collection, just in case you want to await for more than 1 message

so collected.first().content

[dense drift]

I tweaked it to

let ug = msg.guild.member(invm.user.id)
            let dmMessage = await invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`);
            let filter = m => m.content.startsWith(['accept', 'deny'])

            dmMessage.channel.awaitMessages(filter, {
                max: 1,
                time: 500000 })
            
            .then(async collected => {
                console.log(collected)
                if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == 'accept') {
                    ug.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has accepted your invite!`)

                } else if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == "deny") {


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                } else {
                    invm.send(`Invalid response! Please ask for a new invite!`)
                    u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`)
                }

            }).catch(() => {

                invm.send(`Timed out, please ask for a new invite from ${u}.`)

            })```

[quartz kindle]

startsWith doesnt work like that

[dense drift]

Okay

How would you go about it?

[quartz kindle]

filter = m => m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept" || m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"

[dense drift]

Oh yeah lol

[quartz kindle]

that way only accept or deny will be valid answers, everything else will be ignored

[dense drift]

I'm half asleep

[quartz kindle]

so you can also remove this else { invm.send(`Invalid response! Please ask for a new invite!`) u.send(`${invm.nickname} has declined your invite!`) }

[dense drift]

            let ug = msg.guild.member(invm.user.id)
            let dmMessage = await invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`);
            let filter = m => m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept" || m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"

            dmMessage.channel.awaitMessages(filter, {
                max: 1,
                time: 500000 })
            
            .then(async collected => {
                console.log(collected)
                if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == 'accept') {
                    ug.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm} has accepted your invite!`)

                } if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == "deny") {


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm} has declined your invite!`)


            .catch(() => {

                invm.send(`Timed out, please ask for a new invite from ${u}.`)

            })

        }```

Now it's posting the same thing

Undefined, and timed out

[quartz kindle]

collected is still undefined?

[dense drift]

yeah

            let ug = msg.guild.member(invm.user.id)
            let dmMessage = await invm.send(`${u} has invited you to their party!\n\nPlease respond with \`accept\` or \`deny\`.`);
            let filter = m => m.content.toLowerCase() === "accept" || m.content.toLowerCase() === "deny"

            dmMessage.channel.awaitMessages(filter, {
                max: 1,
                time: 500000 })
            
            .then(collected => {
                console.log(collected)
                if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == 'accept') {
                    ug.addRole(role)

                    invm.send(`You have joined the party!\n\nClick on <#${chn.id}> to get started!`)
                    u.send(`${invm} has accepted your invite!`)

                } if (collected.content.toLowerCase() == "deny") {


                    invm.send(`You have declined this invite.`)
                    u.send(`${invm} has declined your invite!`)


            .catch(() => {

                invm.send(`Timed out, please ask for a new invite from ${u}.`)

            })}})

        }```

Now it's not undefined

It's a collection as expected

[quartz kindle]

yes

now you have to use collected.first()

[dense drift]

Ayyyyyyyyy

It works!!!!!

❤️ <#

Holy moly, that's 3 hours of coding now working lolol

Thanks soooo sooo much for your help as always

[quartz kindle]

👍

[finite bough]

client.on('message', message => {
  if (message.author.id === '430964083160776705'){
    if(message.content.toLowerCase().startsWith('y!addmod')){
      let User = message.mentions.users.first()
  if (!User) return message.channel.send('doge ping someone!')

  let student = { 
    name: 'Mike'
    
};
 
let data = JSON.stringify(student, null, 2);

fs.writeFile('database.json', data, (err) => {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log('Data written to file');
});

console.log('This is after the write call');
  }
  }
});

is there something I did wrong

[quartz kindle]

depends what you're trying to do

[finite bough]

I made a json file

named database.json

I want to send the userid of who I ping in the json file

it was not working so I just replayed User. Id with mike

its stil not working

[quartz kindle]

the way your code is right now, it will replace the entire database with one user every time

and writeFile writes buffers by default afaik, so you need to set it to write utf8

, data, "utf8", err =>

[finite bough]

oh

I will try it

still

didnt work

client.on('message', message => {
  if (message.author.id === '430964083160776705'){
    if(message.content.toLowerCase().startsWith('y!addmod')){
      let User = message.mentions.users.first()
  if (!User) return message.channel.send('doge ping someone!')

  let student = { 
    name: 'Mike'
    
};
 
let data = JSON.stringify(student, null, 2);

fs.writeFile('database.json', data, "utf8", (err) => {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log('Data written to file');
});

console.log('This is after the write call');
}
}
});

[quartz kindle]

what didnt work?

did any of the console.log's work?

[finite bough]

it didnt send mike to the database

and yes it sent the message to the console

if you want you can send me a code which serves my purpose

[quartz kindle]

which message?

[finite bough]

it can be totally different

mike

in the database

[quartz kindle]

which message was sent to the console

[finite bough]

both

data written to file

and

this is after the write call

[quartz kindle]

and you opened the database.json file?

[finite bough]

ye

[quartz kindle]

and it has nothing inside it?

[finite bough]

nope

[quartz kindle]

delete it and try again

[quartz kindle]

do you have any other code that writes to that file?

also, console.log(data) before fs.writeFile

[finite bough]

nope

[tight plinth]

Try not using glitch

Glitch.com don't really like apps editing files

@earnest phoenix make it online

#502193464054644737

[finite bough]

is there any other website I can use

[tight plinth]

@finite bough free no

[warm marsh]

Free yes, without a con, no.

[tight plinth]

@warm marsh wdym

[finite bough]

what's the con

[warm marsh]

E.g. heroku but its limited.

[finite bough]

nah

[tight plinth]

Heroku + databases = no

Just no

[warm marsh]

Heroku has postgres?

[tight plinth]

But it sucks

[warm marsh]

Fair. You're just better of paying a couple dollars/pounds/euros per month to get a vps.

[tight plinth]

If u have money vps are the best solution

But u need a good vps

[warm marsh]

For a bot? Nah.

[tight plinth]

If course u need one

Check pins

[warm marsh]

Wait, Google Cloud or Azure do trials/free credits.

[toxic mauve]

Hello how do u fix the music to search and hear the music

[warm marsh]

Langauge, show code (pastebin pref).

[finite bough]

@tight plinth can i use a module called fs extra

[warm marsh]

That won't change being able to write and read files consistently on glitch.

[tight plinth]

How heroku works :
-Clone the girhub repo of your bot
-npm install
-npm start

[toxic mauve]

I am so confused

[quartz kindle]

@finite bough try this: console.log(require("./database.json")) right after your console.log("data written to file"), still inside the fs scope

[tight plinth]

It clones the repo, it don't edit it

[finite bough]

oki

[toxic mauve]

Can someone join my server and help me

[tight plinth]

So databases with heroku are a bad idea coz they reset every time u restart ur bot

[quartz kindle]

json sorry, not js

[toxic mauve]

Pls anyone

[quartz kindle]

@toxic mauve are you trying to fix a bot you made?

[toxic mauve]

Yes

[quartz kindle]

how did you make it?

[toxic mauve]

I added the music rythim

[quartz kindle]

did you code it?

[toxic mauve]

How u code it

[quartz kindle]

so its not a bot you made?

[toxic mauve]

N

O

[quartz kindle]

then we cant help you

this channel is to help people who code bots

[toxic mauve]

Damn

Is there any channel for help

[warm marsh]

Go to the bots support server.

[quartz kindle]

ask the people who coded the bot

[toxic mauve]

Can I get code

[twilit rapids]

[gilded plank]

Hey! We think you have our server mistaken. We do not provide support, help, or advice for any bot.

Ok

[finite bough]

@quartz kindle in the console there was this line {name: mike}

[surreal sage]

how to fetch guildmember property from msg author property

[quartz kindle]

@finite bough so the file is being written correctly, and then something is deleting it

so the problem is glitch, not your code

[surreal sage]

in visual studio code @earnest phoenix

[quartz kindle]

unless some other part of your code is doing that

[surreal sage]

y

but u need to understand it first

i rather watch a tutorial for beginners

[quartz kindle]

@surreal sage messages have a .member getter for that

[surreal sage]

lol forgot

thx

[finite bough]

I believe its not

[surreal sage]

wait

@quartz kindle message.author.member or message.member

or https://tryitands.ee

msg.member

[slender thistle]

I don't think message.author.member will work

[prime cliff]

??? message.author is the member

[slender thistle]

d.py user vanishes into the void

[prime cliff]

C# all the way

[slender thistle]

[modest maple]

i cant believe its actually harder to scrape sfw anime images than it is hentai

wtf is this world

[twilit rapids]

[prime cliff]

Technically harder for sfw since some sfw images could be seen as nsfw

[modest maple]

its just

you know how hard it is to scrape that shit

can any mod help me

[heavy marsh]

I need a small help on Discord.js

What I am trying to do is ...
I dont want to make the bot leave the voice channel when I am in a different voice channel.

What I have soo far

if(message.member.voiceChannel !== message.client.user.voiceChannel) return```

It doesnt quite work

[blissful scaffold]

It might be better to compare the id of the channel

[heavy marsh]

if(message.member.voiceChannel.id !== message.client.user.voiceChannel.id) return

Like this?

[earnest phoenix]

Where's the code?

[heavy marsh]

What code?

[blissful scaffold]

Try it and see if it works

[heavy marsh]

oks

[earnest phoenix]

Is there a code bot?

Is it in

[blissful scaffold]

What do you mean with code bot? You need to code your own bot

[earnest phoenix]

I don't mean like that I mean in bot orders I mean pots but and so on because I put it in the bot my right

please help me

console error

[heavy marsh]

On what do you need help on?

[earnest phoenix]

for some reason the event is not running

but I have given everything well the hits are good too

@heavy marsh

[heavy marsh]

Error means you cant send it

so there is an error in ```js
let leave = member.guild.channels.get(leavechannel);

[earnest phoenix]

but it shouldn't be a mistake

con.query(`SELECT * FROM prefix WHERE id = ('${member.guild.id}')`, async (err, rows) => {
        if(err) throw err;
        
        if (rows[0].welcome === 1) {
            console.log(`Goodbye event kivan kapcsolva a ${member.guild.name} Szerveren`)
        } else {


                  const leavemessage = rows[0].leavemessage
                  const leavemessage2 = rows[0].leavemessage2
                  let leavechannel = rows[0].leavechannel



let leave = member.guild.channels.get(leavechannel);```

[heavy marsh]

is member defined?

[earnest phoenix]

module.exports = async (bot, member, message) => { ```

[heavy marsh]

ahhh your trying to do the member leave event

[earnest phoenix]

YES

try removing and adding bits of code

@earnest phoenix error code got it just don't know why you do it js (node:3972) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'send' of undefined at Query.<anonymous> (C:\Users\Headsoht\Desktop\henota\events\guildMemberRemove.js:71:8)

[heavy marsh]

what dont you simple do js client.channels.get(`Channel ID`).send(`BLa BLa Bla`)

[earnest phoenix]

have you tried reading the error

yes

do you understand what it means

[heavy marsh]

Cannot read property 'send' of undefined

So send is not defined

[earnest phoenix]

no

[slender thistle]

[earnest phoenix]

it isn't

[slender thistle]

You are trying to do x.send where x is not defined

[earnest phoenix]

^

which is why i told you to inspect your variables to see what went wrong

[heavy marsh]

so some thing wrong with the variable right

if(message.member.voiceChannel.id !== message.client.user.voiceChannel.id) return

Is this wrong

ok nvm i get it lol

(${welcomechannel}) might be an id that is invaild

message.client.user.voiceChannel.id

Is this wrong to get the voice channel id for which the bot is connected to?

[earnest phoenix]

a bot can be connected to multiple channels at once

so, yes

don't make up your own properties and read the docs

[heavy marsh]

Yey I am going through it now ... my bad

[peak venture]

ahm.. my bot seems to be offline and cant login. I get this error:

nvm

apparently Discord created a new token O_o"

[blissful scaffold]

I think Discord sometimes automatically creates a new token if it sees that your token is leaked somewhere, or maybe if you break the rate limit a lot. But I am not sure

[peak venture]

it's odd though. Atm i just got another new token. And atm it's trying to login again but it's taking relative long.. once again.

So.. i assume there's going to be a similar error again

[quartz kindle]

you might have an infinite loop

or something wrong when loading something

[peak venture]

It used to work untill today though

Like nothing has changed at all since like 3 weeks

[modest maple]

i prefer to reclusively make my bot class and if one instance dies who cares i just have another 9999 left

[peak venture]

Web says Discord is banning IPs

[scenic kelp]

@modest maple smart way of doing it

rent 10000 different servers

[quartz kindle]

@peak venture did your bot cross 2500 servers by any chance?

[peak venture]

Nope

That's 1 seperate bot for 1 server

[quartz kindle]

are you loading files?

[peak venture]

Yws

so @quartz kindle the thing is that it loaded all the files and only to actually "login" it fails.

[cinder patio]

Can you guys tell me how much ram your bot uses? (and guild count to compare)

[peak venture]

@quartz kindle apparently the bot has been banned according to the topic:
https://support.glitch.com/t/discord-ban-mega-thread-the-second-discord-bot-something-took-too-long-to-do/12157/303

So i posted my project there in awaitance

[quartz kindle]

i guess discord banned several of glitch's ip addresses

[peak venture]

so it seems

[quartz kindle]

since its a free service, many people use it for selfbots, spam, raids, etc

[peak venture]

btw; how did i store this session info or is that done automaticly?

[quartz kindle]

@cinder patio tell me how much yours uses and which language library, and i'll tell you if its normal

[marble juniper]

since glitch auto updates if you ever write any single line of code
it will always login and login

and thats the problem

[cinder patio]

48MB with discord.js, but I also have an express server running on the same proccess

[modest maple]

low as fuck

[cinder patio]

bot is in 2 guilds with 4 users total

[quartz kindle]

in glitch/heroku?

[marble juniper]

not even a gb ram

[slender thistle]

Is there any difference between blob and text data types in mysql

[cinder patio]

when I just run it on my pc

[marble juniper]

not even 100mb

[cinder patio]

but like

2 guilds

[quartz kindle]

typically, discord.js will use an average of 100mb per 200-400 guilds, depending on how many members the guilds have

with default configuration

[marble juniper]

if there are many guilds with many members your kinda screwed

If you use heroku or glitch I suggest buying a vps

with a decent amount of ram

[cinder patio]

yea I'll definitely buy a VPS, I already have 1 but it only has 1GB ram

[marble juniper]

Performance is what you nedd

*need

[cinder patio]

I mean memory not RAM

[quartz kindle]

i asked about glitch/heroku because i dont think they count node's own process as part of its ram usage, so while node itself uses 40-50mb ram, glitch/heroku sometimes report 10/15mb ram

memory = ram

[summer torrent]

https://nmw03.is-inside.me/xGGCaDbQ.png
how to fix this?

[quartz kindle]

discord.js has a lot of room for tweaking though, so you can make it use 10x less ram if you disable and/or clear caching

[cinder patio]

I run the process using pm2, don't know if that can add some bytes

[marble juniper]

you can use client.sweepMessages

[quartz kindle]

yes pm2 runs on its own process, which will add another 10-20mb total, but it doesnt matter much

[marble juniper]

client.sweepMessages removes some messages depending how long ago they got sent from the cache

which you can specify

[quartz kindle]

you can disable message caching, sweep members, users, channels, etc

[marble juniper]

you can remove the caching of most things and fetch them only if needed

[quartz kindle]

i made a library which disables all caches on a class level

[cinder patio]

I'm planning on deleting / making some properties of guilds / roles / users but I doubt that would save much RAM

[marble juniper]

better than nothing

[cinder patio]

I am not sure if I want to do the caching myself

[quartz kindle]

what will your bot do?

depending on your needs, you can also disable events, and use discord's new intents system, which will massively reduce cpu and bandwidth usage

[cinder patio]

not much, only needs to see perms and posts messages

[quartz kindle]

for perms you need to cache guilds, channels, members and roles

do you need welcome messages?

do you need to access people's online/idle status or their nicknames?

[cinder patio]

nope

[quartz kindle]

then you can probably use intents

[summer torrent]

@quartz kindle can't I do response.3vs3Victories ?
https://nmw03.is-inside.me/8X9Swr1H.png

context?

[tight plinth]

Hi

[violet nimbus]

How I do that? For my bot

Mean custom colors

[modest maple]

css in long desc

[violet nimbus]

@modest maple ooh

Thanx

But what

Are classes?

Or ids*

[modest maple]

use this thing called

'inspect element'

[violet nimbus]

Ooh

K

[quartz kindle]

space-track.org has the weirdest API i've ever seen

who the hell uses query parameters like this: param/value/param/value/param/value

in any order

[slender thistle]

Wait what

[modest maple]

crunchyroll's api works using hash codes

[slender thistle]

It's literally like param1/value1?

[modest maple]

you have to send a request to get the hash to then use that hash to get the thing u want

[quartz kindle]

@slender thistle /basicspacedata/query/class/tle/distinct/true/predicates/NORAD_CAT_ID,TLE_LINE1,TLE_LINE2/EPOCH/>now-2/

[slender thistle]

Good God save the humanity

[quartz kindle]

plus they use cookies for auth instead of api keys

you have to send a get request with a cookie in the header

[amber fractal]

That's gonna be a fat api

[quartz kindle]

and look at these rate limits

are they running on windows xp?

[modest maple]

my webscraper api has a higher limit than that

[earnest phoenix]

why do they even bother exposing the api if they don't want people to utilise it.. almost at all

[quartz kindle]

they also say "please contact us and we will help you configure your use case for best efficiency"

sent them an email a week ago, no answer

they also ask you to use cURL with --limit-rate=100k (max 100kb per second download speed)

[finite bough]

@quartz kindle thanks now its somehow working

but can u tell me how can I add more ids in a single json file

if u want to see the code again

client.on("message", message => {
  if (message.author.id === "430964083160776705" || message.author.id === "469076843430150154") {
    if (message.content.toLowerCase().startsWith("y!addmod")) {
      let User = message.mentions.users.first();
      if (!User) return message.channel.send("doge ping someone!");
      
      let student = {
        name: `${User.id}`
      };

      let data = JSON.stringify(student, null, 2);
      
      console.log(data)

      fs.writeFile("./mod.json", data, "utf8", err => {
        if (err) console.log(err);
        console.log("Data written to file");
        console.log(require("./mod.json"))
      });
      message.channel.send('Hello! This is the reply message.')
      console.log("This is after the write call");
      
    }
  }
})

[quartz kindle]

@finite bough a json file cannot be parsed partially, so you make operations to the whole file at once

if you save to it, the whole file will be replaced

so you need to load the whole file, make the change and then save the whole file again

for this reason, json files are not a good storage solution and databases are preferred

[finite bough]

cant u just push it?

[quartz kindle]

nope because it breaks the json structure

[finite bough]

my friend does it

he sent me how he does it

but I didnt understand

[blissful scaffold]

theoretically you could insert data into a list, but I don't know any parser that does that when it updates a file

[quartz kindle]

show his code and i'll explain what he did

see? he does exactly what i said

he reads the entire file, makes the change then saves the entire file again

[finite bough]

hm?

[blissful scaffold]

he reads the entire file, edits the data and then saves the entire file

[finite bough]

how can I do that

[quartz kindle]

you can read a json file using require() or by using fs.readFile() or fs.readFileSync()

[finite bough]

yes

[quartz kindle]

using require will keep a copy of the file in memory

using fs will not

fs.readFile is an async function, fs.readFileSync is not

[finite bough]

hmm

so I should use require()?

[quartz kindle]

that would be the easiest way yes

[finite bough]

can u show me an easy way on how I can so it

it's ok if it troubles u

[quartz kindle]

remember this?

[finite bough]

I will try searching on some example bots

ye

[quartz kindle]

thats reading the file

[finite bough]

ye

[quartz kindle]

so you read it, then you edit it, then you save it again

[finite bough]

hmm I will try thanks

[quartz kindle]

check this

[earnest phoenix]

How can I send a fake vote event to test my bot ?

[copper cradle]

There's a test button in the same place where you put your webhook thingy

[earnest phoenix]

Thanks

[quartz kindle]

@fallen arch you're using atlas? did you whitelist your ip address?

[fallen arch]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

I do not understand how to set up a webhook with the js api :/

[quartz kindle]

@fallen arch try adding .catch(console.log) to it

see if it logs anything

[fallen arch]

okay

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix where is your bot hosted?

[earnest phoenix]

My bot is hosted on a vps, why ?

[analog walrus]

👀

[quartz kindle]

dbl sends webhooks to YOU, not to discord

your URL field should be your vps's ip address + webhook port + webhook url

[earnest phoenix]

And what is the webhook port and webhook url ?

[quartz kindle]

the port you define in the js api options

for example: YOUR.VPS.IP.ADDRESS:5000/dblwebhook

if the port you set up is 5000

[earnest phoenix]

I see, thanks

[quartz kindle]

also make sure the authorization field in the website is the same as the webhookAuth in the api options

[fallen arch]

wait

why paused?

[quartz kindle]

idk

i dont use atlas

[fallen arch]

i did connect to my cluster

[earnest phoenix]

I have this :/

[quartz kindle]

do you have an existing server?

like express or something

[earnest phoenix]

no

[quartz kindle]

then remove the webhookServer option

[earnest phoenix]

Ok, thanks x)

Is it normal that when I launch the link, I have a 404 ?

[fallen arch]

mongoose
whats wrong with this connection string:
'mongodb+srv://arcle:<password>@xeroc-z467s.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=true&w=majority'

[analog walrus]

I can't help much XC

[summer torrent]

@fallen arch replace <password> with password of db user

[fallen arch]

i did that ofc

[neat ingot]

lulz

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix not normal, where is that 404 coming from?

[earnest phoenix]

nvm I fixed it

It works, thank you !

});

dbl.on("error", e => {

});```
Is it enough?

[sinful belfry]

At the area labelled 'main' (near the bottom), cprefix should equal udata.personalPrefix when udata.voted == true however this is not the case and it instead outputs data.prefix. I am quite unsure of how to solve this. Any suggestions?

    function message(client, message) {
        guildData.findOne(
            {
              guildId: message.channel.guild.id
            },
            async (err, data) => {
              if (!data) {
                return;
              } else {
                var cprefix = data.prefix;
            
            userData.findOne(
            {
              userId: message.author.id,
              guildId: message.channel.guild.id
            },
            async (err, udata) => {
              if (!udata) {
                return;
              } else {
                 if (udata.voted == true) { /* this condition returns true */
                   var cprefix = udata.personalPrefix;
                    message.channel.send(cprefix); /* outputs udata.personalPrefix */
                    //cprefix == udata.personalPrefix here
                 } 
              }
            })
            /* main */
            message.channel.send(cprefix); /* outputs data.prefix */
            //cprefix == data.prefix here
        })
    }

[quartz kindle]

@sinful belfry the .send() part is outside of the second callback

[mystic violet]

would it be okay if I called const dbl = new DBL(Bot.config.topGGToken) every time my bot gets a voteLocked command?

Doesn't that not call the api

isnt that only client-side?

[sinful belfry]

@quartz kindle wdym i dont really understand.

[quartz kindle]

@mystic violet it should be ok, but its not really good practice to repeatedly create new instances for no reason

just create one dbl instance and attach it somewhere where you can access, like client for example

@sinful belfry the second .findOne part only applies to things that are inside it

[sinful belfry]

ah ok

[quartz kindle]

the final message.channel.send is inside the first callback, but outside the second, so it only has access to the things inside the first one

[sinful belfry]

oh so if i enclose the last message.channel.send() in the second one too then the variable should be defined correctly?

[quartz kindle]

yes

you can simply place it instead of the return line

[sinful belfry]

ok ty i will try it out

Looking for some assistance in resolving this ```[FATAL] Possibly Unhandled Rejection at: Promise Promise {

<rejected> { [Error: SQLITE_CANTOPEN: unable to open database file] errno: 14, code: 'SQLITE_CANTOPEN' } } reason: SQLITE_CANTOPEN: unable to open database file``` using Discord.JS and SQLite

I don't even know where to begin with this error and the odd part is the bot still uses the Database as it should it still functions properly regardless

I am also not looking to be spoon fed this is just my first time working with SQL and my first time getting this error and have been unable to find anything in guides, Reddit ect

[quartz kindle]

which sqlite driver/library are you using?

[hoary elm]

@quartz kindle
SQLite v3.0.3
&
SQLite3 v4.1.1
https://www.npmjs.com/package/sqlite

https://www.npmjs.com/package/sqlite3

I am using both

I don't have an actual client side set up yet to manage/login to the database right now it's all done through the bot as I just set it up about a day or two ago

Like I said the bot still reads and writes to the database regardless of the error so I honestly am stumped on what the issue is. For example the bot has economy commands (Work, Bank ect) linked to the database I can work and earn money and it will still add it to my balance in the database.

[quartz kindle]

why are you using both?

the problem is likely that one of them is being blocked because the other one is using the file

you're not supposed to have multiple libraries doing the same thing lol

[scenic kelp]

but double the libraries is double the performance

[hoary elm]

Ahh okay sorry like I said I'm new to SQL the guide I was referncing listed both

So that's why I did that

[scenic kelp]

that's a whacky guide

[hoary elm]

I honestly assumed I didn't need SQLite3 cause my bot only ever calls SQLite just didn't want to delete it and break something

@scenic kelp it was a very whack very poorly designed guide

90% of what they listed was old or outdated functions

But like I said my bot only ever calls SQLite const sql = require("sqlite"); so I'll just delete the other one

Thanks for advising me that the double is likely the issue 😁

[restive night]

I updated discord.js to v12 and when i run my bot that have 200+ guilds, i get this debug log and my bot doesn't listening to any message

[WS => Shard 0] [HeartbeatTimer] Didn't receive a heartbeat ack last time, assuming zombie connection. Destroying and reconnecting.```
but when i change the bot token to another bot with only have 2 guilds and with the same code, i get this log and my bot is working properly
```[WS => Shard 0] Shard received all its guilds. Marking as fully ready.```
can someone help me with this?
if you ask my code, i already try with simple code like this but only bots that have 2 guilds work
```const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();

client.on("debug", (e) => console.info(e));

client.on("ready", () => {
  
console.log("Logged in!");

});


client.on('message', message => {
	console.log(message.content);

if (message.content === 'ping') {
	message.channel.send('Pong.');
}

});

client.login("mytoken");```

[hoary elm]

If you are using v12 even I have heard a few people say they have better luck with v12.0.0-dev

[quartz kindle]

v12 is v12.0.0-dev lol

[hoary elm]

Other then that I'm useless lol I have no experience in shards yet

[quartz kindle]

@restive night try client.on("raw",console.log)

[hoary elm]

Oh 🤔 what are the changes exactly cause I have heard a few people saying that updating breaks certain functions

[restive night]

the bot is not sharded

let me try first, tim

[quartz kindle]

you installed via npm install discordjs/discord.js right?

[restive night]

right

client.on raw give me a lot of log

[quartz kindle]

on the 200 guilds or on the 2 guilds?

[restive night]

200

[quartz kindle]

a lot of GUILD_CREATE right?

[restive night]

yeah

so what is the causing this?

[quartz kindle]

that is normal

does it ever stop logging?

or does it keep logging a bunch o stuff forever?

[restive night]

its always logging

forever yeah

[quartz kindle]

lots of PRESENCE_UPDATE right?

[restive night]

but my bot only appear online,

and doesn't listen to any message

[quartz kindle]

does any MESSAGE_CREATE appear in the logs?

[restive night]

no, i thinks its only PRESENCE_UPDATE and GUILD_CREATE

why its not happening on bot that only have 2 guilds?

[quartz kindle]

very strange

you're not receiving some packets idk why

try reinstalling discord.js and maybe try resetting your token

[restive night]

already try that both reinstaling discord.js and reset token but still stuck with this

[quartz kindle]

and this only happens in v12, not in v11 right?

maybe try an earlier commit

i g2g now

[restive night]

yeah only happen on v12

ok thank for ur time

[restive furnace]

try v11

or v11-dev

bruhhhh

how to get bot owner properties discord.js

ping me if u know

[hoary elm]

Bot owner properties like what? @surreal sage

Like Owner ID ect?

[quartz kindle]

there are no bot owner properties

discord doesnt know and doesnt care who the owner is

[hoary elm]

Yeah I was gonna say usually for that stuff I just use something like const Owner = client.users.get('OwnerID')

[amber fractal]

you can set one like <Client>.owner = await client.users.fetch("your-id") if you want

but I don't see why you would

[earnest phoenix]

TimToday at 9:37 PM
there are no bot owner properties
discord doesnt know and doesnt care who the owner is
the client is able to fetch information about itself which includes the owner

as for other bots, you can't know who the owner is from the API

[summer torrent]

client.fetchApplication()

[amber fractal]

That's true

Well other bots cant get that

I dont think

[quartz kindle]

ah yeah theres fetchapplication

[blissful scaffold]

[twilit rapids]

[wet iron]

so i can put it on the bot

[blissful scaffold]

Timo, did you call your bot Chip because Chips are made from Potatoes?

[twilit rapids]

No, and this is not related to Development

[earnest phoenix]

lmao

[modest maple]

D.py embeds:

# To start / create an initial embed we use discord.Embed()
embed = discord.Embed()

# Embed() has Kwargs title, description, color
embed = discord.Embed(title="This is a title",
                      description="This is a description",
                      color=<Some hex code>)```

basic embed

[hoary elm]

Interesting I kinda like the python layout.

[modest maple]

https://cog-creators.github.io/discord-embed-sandbox/
This can be used to help visualise Embeds and help generate the bulk of the code

[wet iron]

thanks!

[slender thistle]

@modest maple Real men do embed.title = "This is a title"

[modest maple]

fuck off

xD

only monsters do that

[slender thistle]

Are you calling me a monster

[earnest phoenix]

so, tupperbox is offline, how do we bring him back to life?

[modest maple]

no cuz u a cuti

@earnest phoenix not a support server

[earnest phoenix]

damn

how can i find a support server?

[hoary elm]

On the bot page

[slender thistle]

If you're talking about a bot that's on top.gg, find its bot page and click on "Join Support Server" button

[hoary elm]

If they have a support server listed that is

[earnest phoenix]

ah

thank u

I need a surefire way to convert anything into a string that I can log to the console. I'm creating a custom logger and getting errors trying to convert things to primitives. Is there a surefire way in JS to convert anything into a string? I'm ok with something become something like [Object: null prototype] {}, it just needs to convert to a string. I've tried using String(<thing>) , str = thing + '', thing.toString(), etc. All have thrown errors. The function that I need this in a logging function, similar to console.log.

log (...args) {
 ...
  args.join(' ') <- this is where I get errors
 ...
  console.log(prefix + chalk.bgRed()) // ~
}```

Please ping me with a response

[quartz kindle]

there is no surefire way, but i think the closest you can get is util.inspect

[zealous veldt]

hm, I'll try that

would it be best to inspect all args or just the ones that aren't strings?

[quartz kindle]

all of it

util.inspect is designed to debug stuff like objects

[zealous veldt]

aight

[quartz kindle]

its output is similar to that of JSON.stringify

[zealous veldt]

yeah

alright that worked

thanks!

[quartz kindle]

👍

[mystic violet]

Is there any db's like rethinkdb? cause I cant install rethink, the windows link isnt working

[zealous veldt]

Mongo is probably the closest you can get

But it's still quite different

The instructions here aren't working? https://rethinkdb.com/docs/install/windows/

[copper shoal]

where is the bot list ;;;—-

[zealous veldt]

https://top.gg @copper shoal

[mystic violet]

@zealous veldt press download on the zip

[zealous veldt]

@mystic violet https://download.rethinkdb.com/windows/

[mystic violet]

Thank you

\⏯️ \⏩ \🔁

[neat ingot]

@zealous veldt javascript has the .toString() function on all objects

log (...args) {
  args.map(a => a.toString())
  console.log(...args) 
}

[empty owl]

WHoa

another moose

[neat ingot]

lmao

[empty owl]

now theres 3

wait

no thats Moose

[neat ingot]

however, you should be able to log objects to the console without any issues

for example

function log(...args) {
  console.log('some new thing', ...args)
}```

I have a t4 bot in my discord and it stopped working all of a sudden. Anyone has any ideas what I can do to fix it?

[dense drift]

Anyone have any idea how I would go about printing a loop in 1 message?

                for (let i = 1; i < +a; i++) {
                    
                    msg.channel.send(`**${i}** - ${client.games.get(i)}`)
                }```

My code is that, and instead of it printing 1 message at a time, I would like to map it, and send it in a single message. I'm confused. Thanks in advance!

[hybrid sequoia]

let messageArray = message.content.split(" "); is right for command handler? Hope everyone understand this

error:```let messageArray = message.content.split(' ');
^

ReferenceError: message is not defined```

[dense drift]

module.exports = {
    name: 'name of command here',
    description: 'description here',
    execute(client, message, args) {```

What's yours look like?

[analog walrus]

Btw, regarding webhooks

I have this issue of invalid webhook token

The webhook is from this channel

[primal dove]

Hello can someone help me with this https://pastebin.com/xwTBEAbZ ? ^^

i got some error but i do not found them / how to fix it

[earnest phoenix]

Hey

If anyone can give me some tips to making a bot at all please please message me <3

[lament meteor]

@primal dove what is the error?

[marble juniper]

imma guess its because you try to delete the message twice

and also this

remove the message.delete after if (message.deletable) @IDBLOCK#9999

bruh

[torn nebula]

Lol he left

[pulsar lantern]

@dense drift in case nobody answered your question from an hour ago, you'd create a string and concatenate each line to it and then send the message after the loop

[dense drift]

How do I add each line?

[pulsar lantern]

Is that PHP?

[dense drift]

javascript

[pulsar lantern]

Oh then it'd just be like
var fullString = "";
for(...){
fullString += (your message);
}
channel.send(fullString);

[late hill]

You can probably do it without the loop

[dense drift]

                var fullString = "";
                for (let i = 1; i < +a; i++) {
                    
                    fullString += `**${i}** - ${client.games.get(i)}`
                }
                msg.channel.send(fullString)
                return```

Something like this?

[late hill]

is client.games a Map

[dense drift]

It's pulling from my database, that's why I use the loop.

[pulsar lantern]

Yeah it should be a loop for sure

[dense drift]

Yes, however the map would have stuff I don't want.

[pulsar lantern]

That's close however u interpret the entire statement as a string when u add it to the fullString

So it will print out the line of code, not the data from the code

I think anyway, you can try that

I'm not very experienced with jQuery

[dense drift]

Okay, I'll try.

Holy

[earnest phoenix]

Im just trying to develop my first bot and cant get off the part where i have to start up my bot im sorry to both you people but can anyone help me xd

[dense drift]

You did it!

Thanks man!!!!

[late hill]

Yes, however the map would have stuff I don't want.
You could still apply filters without a loop

[pulsar lantern]

Yeah np

[late hill]

Depending on what exactly your filtering is like, it may actually be very simple

[dense drift]

That's alright, this worked perfectly! Thanks for the help.

[pulsar lantern]

Glad to hear

Gl developing

[dense drift]

🙂

[earnest phoenix]

can anyone help me start my bot please? its on the part where i start the bot so its online and every time i do node index.js it just says module not found

[neat ingot]

rauxs, have you ever written a node js application before?

[earnest phoenix]

no

[neat ingot]

i'd recommend you follow these steps:
1 - run 'npm install' from command line

2 - run node index.js

3 - profit

[earnest phoenix]

profit?

[neat ingot]

idk, isnt that the intent?

[earnest phoenix]

okay 1st. i did npm install its up to date

node index.js doesnt work

[neat ingot]

but either way, it sounds like node modules werent available

[pulsar lantern]

It's missing discord.js probably

[neat ingot]

what does the error say

[pulsar lantern]

If you're making a node bot

[neat ingot]

could be missing the entire package.json lol

[earnest phoenix]

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users(my name)\index.js'
 at Function.Module._resolveFilename (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:981:15)

C:\Users(my name)>

[neat ingot]

is the file 'index.js' within your user directory?

[earnest phoenix]

yes

[late hill]

show your directory

[earnest phoenix]

wait

what is my directory

[late hill]

also

[pulsar lantern]

Does it have discord.js code in there and no discord.js?

[late hill]

straight up having the main file in your user folder

[ruby warren]

Hi

[late hill]

kinda weird

and probably not what you did

[pulsar lantern]

^

[neat ingot]

^

certainly not recommended if you did

[pulsar lantern]

If your file is elsewhere you'll have to navigate ur command line to it first

[neat ingot]

personally, i would create a brand new folder somewhere called 'app' or w.e

[earnest phoenix]

https://gyazo.com/9c99f652c40a5e69942bd3b92f62a8a0

[neat ingot]

then i'd move my index.js, and package.json file into that folder

[earnest phoenix]

i will get new token

[neat ingot]

and follow the 3 steps from above

[earnest phoenix]

idc about my name anymore

i just want the bot to get off that

[neat ingot]

show your package.json contents plz?

ahh seer

[earnest phoenix]

https://gyazo.com/ec0a1cd823a45af4552b2536613f7847

[neat ingot]

your in a directory already

'discordbot'

[earnest phoenix]

erm

is that good or bad

[late hill]

Did you install node

[earnest phoenix]

yes

[neat ingot]

oooohhh

[earnest phoenix]

i did

[neat ingot]

its not finding it

[late hill]

Have you restarted your pc since

[neat ingot]

type node --v

[earnest phoenix]

no....

[neat ingot]

in the command line

[late hill]

It's probably not added to the path

If you reboot it should work

[earnest phoenix]

oka

will do

thx

[neat ingot]

node --version sorryu

should get something spit out like that

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

12.16.0

ima restart pc

be back in a min or 2

[neat ingot]

how can node --version work though when it cant find 'node' ...

strange, but mmk 🙂

also, idk if case matters on requires, but you have a capitalized D

is what i use

it might require case sensitivity more if your running a linux machine

[earnest phoenix]

okay

just restarted

took a few mins

leme open everything up again

[neat ingot]

np, tyt 🙂
