only the first-paged bot lists are good honestly
green kestrel
you put your bot on them and just leave it there
each one contributes backlinks
but the only one i ever get any traffic from is here
as in direct searches
i dont expect anyone to search for my bot on the other lists
earnest phoenix
It's because it gets on first google result
Other bot lists arent at the top like top.gg
green kestrel
they dont put the effort in to be at the top
they seem to put some botlist on glitch or heroku, and run it till they get fed up of the admin
and 6 months later its gone or merged
and what else gets my goat about them is the constant renaming! they use like .gl or .ml free domains etc and then every month or so the free hoster takes their domain away
so constant faffing with api endpoint names
bitter sundial
there was an open source bot list a lot of people forked
green kestrel
that would explain it, i guess this is where those bugs come from
you know theres one list thats almost identical to your appearance?
its like they nicked your CSS
earnest phoenix
Wow i'd love to see how a bot list works behind the scenes lol
green kestrel
(badly... everything jumps about when hovered over)
bitter sundial
yeah kinda weird
green kestrel
@earnest phoenix technically its simple enough, the hard part is running it
earnest phoenix
Yeah but like
green kestrel
dealing with queries, approving bots etc
bitter sundial
like they be like dbl/topgg bad imma make my own
...and then proceeds to copy everything we do lmao
earnest phoenix
Since i'm learning in class on how to make websites and stuff
I'd love to just look at the code and see how it works
green kestrel
the only thing i'd do different if i made my own list is go for something completely democratised and community run, and not get my hands dirty with bot approvals
but i dont even have time to set that up
earnest phoenix
hmm
green kestrel
plus it has its own issues, when you think about it
like voting colleges would form, cliques, etc
"you want your bot listed? you need to be on these guys good books as they are the swing vote" etc etc
a bit like how steam greenlight used to be a bit of a shitshow
earnest phoenix
Well here's one
bitter sundial
it's difficult to get a large community to do things right
and how about we dont link to them
earnest phoenix
oh ye
green kestrel
<a class="navtext" target="_blank" href="<%= response.invite ? response.invite : `https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=${response.id}&scope=bot&permissions=0` %>">Invite</a>
theres part of the problem
it just plain ignores the url the user puts in
if people copied this source, it would explain the problem, but this ones far worse and strips permissions as well!
bitter sundial
it uses the invite and if none is provided, generates one for you
bitter sundial
dbl does the same
green kestrel
i cant actually find the broken code in there then
looks like that one works correctly
unreal cape
I want my d.js bot to respond when it's pinged, but i'm not sure how it works
if (msg.content == "@wet crater") {
msg.channel.send('test');
};
I made this but it doesnt really work and doesn't give an error
green kestrel
what error does it give?
unreal cape
none
oh wait there's a different error from a different part of the code
lol
gotta fix that first i guess

you do know that your answer will not be in plain sight in the docs, right?

@summer torrent that doesn't work at all

@slender thistle you haven't seen anything
nocturne grove
Hey, I have a quick question. Does slow mode (for text channels) affect your Discord bot?
small prairie
It does
finite bough
@nocturne grove depends
lyric mountain
just like users
small prairie
basically manage messages or channels
nocturne grove
just as every user? If it has admin it doesn't affect the bot?
small prairie
No
finite bough
no
lyric mountain
actually a bot IS an user with additional functions
nocturne grove
Oh is manage msg or manage chan's enough for ignoring the slow mode?
summer torrent
if your bot has manage messages perm, no
summer torrent
manage msg
small prairie
Its enough
zenith terrace
@earnest phoenix did u get it fixed yet?
nocturne grove
okay so not manage channels, only message messages (or admin)?
lyric mountain
admin is the master perm, it overrides anything else
i guess manage messages will not allow your bot to bypass slow-mode
earnest phoenix
@zenith terrace still working on it wait...

Is that if code(useri.presence.activities) correct?(i never used that code before so it might be invalid)

try it and see
mossy vine
earnest phoenix
(useri is = message.author || message.mentions.users.first()) btw
Lol nano is more comfortable for me
finite bough
@tight plinth did it work?
quartz kindle
message.mentions should be first, else it will never be used, because message.author always exists
tight plinth
with <@${client.user.id> np
small prairie
(useri is = message.author || message.mentions.users.first())
seems wrong
message.mentions should be first, else it will never be used, because message.author always exists
Ah yeah
earnest phoenix
Hmm
quartz kindle
as for activities i think it returns an object, i dont remember
console.log it or check the docs, and you'll see
earnest phoenix
K lemme check
quartz kindle
@tight plinth if(message.content.startsWith("<@!YOURID>") || message.content.startsWith("<@YOURID>"))
tight plinth
forgot the ! thing
zenith terrace
Btw, for V12. Is it better to rewrite the whole coding again
tight plinth
wait
quartz kindle
depends on your code, but possibly yes
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle and btw wdym by message.mentions to be the first? I got a little confused
tight plinth
oof
quartz kindle
something || somethingElse means literally something OR something else
if the first something exists, it will be used
the second something will never be used if the first one exists
message.author always exists
"<@ID>" always exists (its a literal string)
earnest phoenix
I didn't show the part above but ???
small prairie
message.guild.emojis.map(e=>{
client.guilds.get("ID").createEmoji(e.url,e.name)
})
this is in d.js v11
Dont tell me if its illegal or anything
I'm using it on a server i'm staff in
Is this right?
basically mapping all emojis of a server to another
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle the message.mentions is the first
earnest phoenix
Hmm
torn nebula
it won't work
quartz kindle
ah i know why
small prairie
Uh?
quartz kindle
you cant use .map with async code
quartz kindle
because .map will resolve the entire loop instantly and not wait for any promise
same thing with foreach
tight plinth
works
small prairie
Then what can i use?
quartz kindle
they will both fire 50 requests at the same time, making you get rate limited
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle so as you were saying the message.mentions to be the first... It's literally the first...
quartz kindle
if you have 50 emojis
you have to use a regular for loop, so you can await each request
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix yes and its correct, i said it because you said this before
small prairie
is there a collection.next thingy?
Or an index
quartz kindle
@small prairie js for(let i = 0; i < message.guild.emojis.size; i++) { await client.guilds.get(ID).createEmoji() }
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix field values may not be empty
torn nebula
let some = message.guild.emojis.map(e => e.id === "id").url
<guild>.createEmoji(some)
Anyone know how to change a bot tag?
quartz kindle
one of your .addField()s has an empty value for some reason, you have to find out which one
small prairie
@earnest phoenix There isnt a way
earnest phoenix
Scroll up @quartz kindle
quartz kindle
try console.logging the embed before sending
quartz kindle
thats very wrong Sai lol
torn nebula
lol
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle after i added that if case (useri.presence.activites) it showed me that error
tight plinth
I dont see any errors
quartz kindle
if you remove it then it works?
small prairie
can i convert it into an array and use array functions?
earnest phoenix
Yup
quartz kindle
then console.log useri.presence.activities
earnest phoenix
How was that done i forgot?
small prairie
No no no
See in a collection
there is no way to get from index right?
But i can use index from for loop in array
so can i convert it to array and use?
Does the fields(url,name) remain the same?
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix console.log(useri.presence.activities) before the line where you use them
earnest phoenix
Oh ok lemme check
quartz kindle
@small prairie yes you can
small prairie
Alright Trying it
quartz kindle
you can also try using a for in
i dont know if it works with collections
for(let emoji in message.guild.emojis) {
await something
}```Erm
SyntaxError: await is only valid in async function
do i need to convert the eval function in code to async? @quartz kindle
tight plinth
create an async function
quartz kindle
yes
small prairie
Oh, Okay
quartz kindle
or create an async function inside it
small prairie
Erm?
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle oh and i didn't see... Sorry for asking but wdym "before the line where you use them"
quartz kindle
earnest phoenix
Oh in there?
Ok lemme check
@quartz kindle i did it and it shows nothing besides the same error as before...

are you having problem with the bot info command or the emoji list thing? different people

@quartz kindle found any solution yet?

var add=0

})
something like this
quartz kindle
to check if an empty array contains values or not, you do if(array.length)
so your if has to be useri.presence.activities.length
@small prairie that will not work
earnest phoenix
Length set to nothing?
small prairie
async function some(message){
var em=message.guild.emojis.array()
for(let i = 0; i < message.guild.emojis.size; i++) {
await client.guilds.get("468823185882742794").createEmoji(em[i].url,em[i].name)
}
}
some(message)```
pale vessel
ternary operator makes it easier
small prairie
why isnt this working?
pale vessel
what's wrong?
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle so like the code needs to be like this?:
+ If (useri.presence.activities.length){
userembed.addField("**Currently playing:**", useri.presence.activities, true)
}```
?use ternary operator
quartz kindle
that will fix the error yes, but you will need to change the actual value of the field
earnest phoenix
Value to the what?
quartz kindle
because that will likely show up as [Object object]
earnest phoenix
Hmm so the value code needs to be changed to what tho? @quartz kindle
quartz kindle
check the docs
earnest phoenix
Hmm ok
small prairie
F
async function some(message){
var em=message.guild.emojis.array()

how do you remove the prefix from the command? slice?

pale vessel
put it inside a code and try it
why are you using eval to code anyway
you can try then btw
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle so i changed the if statement's end method to length and it fixed it without changing the value of the Field... Thx for the help at the very least...

its a temp one time command
Why should i edit the code for it

In my userinfo command i want it to show a message.author's and a mentioned user's date of them that they joined the server...
How is it possible?
Is that correct?

@earnest phoenix use SQL db, or some other database

@lyric mountain do you have any idea about my problem up there?
i just wanna use the normal json file i have no idea how to use that
i just dont know how to make it so the warn numbers will be different for each server
lyric mountain
i just wanna use the normal json file i have no idea how to use that
@earnest phoenix json is not safe nor lightweight, better to use a DB for storing guild configs
earnest phoenix
but i need some help with it
I think you should watch some tutorial somewhere...
lyric mountain
@lyric mountain do you have any idea about my problem up there?
@earnest phoenix the user object has a "joined at" attribute and a getAsMention function
you gotta check the docs for them tho
idk how they are called in js

Hmm lemme check then
lyric mountain
but i need some help with it
@earnest phoenix read the first link I sent you
it'll guide you through setting up and using sqlite

@earnest phoenix note that mentions don't work within embeds (they actually show up, but doesn't ping the user)
what should i choose
@earnest phoenix all of them
they are sequential tutorials

its to set them
it doesnt add or remove them, it sets them to exactly that
to add or remove you have to get the current ones, and change them then put them there as a list like that

I really don't understand, then with this discord.js documentation I really have a hard time excuse me (I'm French, it doesn't help either)

@wicked pivot it says message.guild.members.get is not a function... I think the get method has been removed or renamed...
Oh wait ik what's it renamed to... Brb
wicked pivot
which version are you in?
earnest phoenix
You mean what is the version of discord.js I'm using?
finite bough
yes
wicked pivot
yes"
earnest phoenix
It's 12.0.2
wicked pivot
i can't help you sorry i'm using v11
earnest phoenix
Oh anyways... Thx for the help at least...
quartz kindle
in v12 its members.cache.get()
golden condor
I'm tryna use discord.js-commando and I don't know how
lyric mountain
have you rtd?
golden condor
?
lyric mountain
have you read the docs?
golden condor
Ys
golden condor
So
I have tons of commands not in the commando format
and I dunno how to convert all my args and prefixes and stuff
hoary elm
Have you checked their docs?
hoary elm
iirc with setting up commando you should start in the Registry area of the Docs. But it's been a while since I've used them
quartz kindle
instead of thinking about how to "convert" your command to commando, try rewriting it in commando
hoary elm
^^
quartz kindle
aka, create it again from scratch, using commando functions and methods
that will help you understand how commando works
hoary elm
Re-write it and follow the docs and you should be good
royal ravine
hi how can i check if a server contains a text channel named "TEST"
copper cradle
at least they're trying to learn
hoary elm
This is true
copper cradle
@royal ravine
maybe check for it?
copper cradle
like you can filter them by name
royal ravine
hmm
copper cradle
what doesn't work
royal ravine
can you maybe send a link >?
royal ravine
1 sec
hoary elm
message.guild.channels.find(c => c.name === '') ??
copper cradle
cannot read property channels of undefined
why
why did u fucking tell 'em
we're not supposed to spoon feed
hoary elm
.... I would like to point out that depending on what exactly he's trying to do that is some what of an answer
But there are things that he could be attempting to do which would make it incomplete
🤷🏻♂️
copper cradle
it's still spoon feeding
hoary elm
K
royal ravine
var channelNAME = message.channel.name
message.channel.send(channelNAME)
Chan[ServerName] = channelNAME;
fs.writeFileSync("./C.json", JSON.stringify(Chan));
if () //i wanna check if there is a channel named Chan[ServerName] and send a message there
message.channel.send("The theme of today is " + "`"+Themes[theme]+"`")
crimson vapor
that was not spoonfeeding
royal ravine
i am writing the channelname where the command was send to a json file
crimson vapor
var channelNAME = message.channel.name
message.channel.send(channelNAME)
Chan[ServerName] = channelNAME;
fs.writeFileSync("./C.json", JSON.stringify(Chan));
if () //i wanna check if there is a channel named Chan[ServerName] and send a message there
message.channel.send("The theme of today is " + ""+Themes[theme]+"")```and i wanna checn every intervall if the name in the json exist in tje server
and then send a message in that channel
crimson vapor
so you would be creating a setInterval
royal ravine
how can i use the if function to check
that is already in a interval
thats the content
quartz kindle
@royal ravine are you on v11 or v12?
royal ravine
12 i think
crimson vapor
check the package.json if you need
royal ravine
yeh 12
royal ravine
i have this in my json
{"Bot Test Server":"tes1"}
and i wanna check if that "tes1" is in the server
tes1 is a text channel
quartz kindle
to find a channel in v12 its <guild>.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === NAME)
crimson vapor
are you searching for a specific channel per guild or just a specific channel?
crimson vapor
ok got it
royal ravine
every intervall i wanna check if that text channel still exists
and when it does i wanna send a messgae
crimson vapor
why would you do that?
quartz kindle
its better to save the channel ID not the name
royal ravine
when it doesn't its just gonna console.log
quartz kindle
because the channel name can change
royal ravine
hmm
copper cradle
yeah
royal ravine
okay willchange that
crimson vapor
are you making it to a message will be sent on an inverval?
or when a command is used?
crimson vapor
ok
royal ravine
so now it saves the channel id in the json
{"Bot Test Server":"688123488524683288"}
like that
royal ravine
okay
crimson vapor
ok, do you plan to do this for every guild or just the test server?
royal ravine
i get guild is not defined
amber fractal
Message and interval should never be said in the same sentence unless you're explaining why it's bad
copper cradle
send your code
royal ravine
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "START"))
{
var interval = setInterval (function () {
var theme = Math.floor(Math.random() * Themes.length);
var ServerName = message.guild.id
var channelID = message.channel.id
Chan[ServerName] = channelID;
fs.writeFileSync("./C.json", JSON.stringify(Chan));
if (guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === Chan[ServerName])){
message.channel.send("The theme of today is " + "`"+Themes[theme]+"`")
}
//write to .json
ServerConfig[ServerName] = Themes[theme];
fs.writeFileSync("./S.json", JSON.stringify(ServerConfig));
//write to .json
//}
}, 1 * 1000); //1000 = 1 sec
}
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "START"))
{
var interval = setInterval (function () {
var theme = Math.floor(Math.random() * Themes.length);
var ServerName = message.guild.id
var channelID = message.channel.id
Chan[ServerName] = channelID;
fs.writeFileSync("./C.json", JSON.stringify(Chan));
if (guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === Chan[ServerName])){
message.channel.send("The theme of today is " + ""+Themes[theme]+"")
}
//write to .json
ServerConfig[ServerName] = Themes[theme];
fs.writeFileSync("./S.json", JSON.stringify(ServerConfig));
//write to .json
//}
}, 1 * 1000); //1000 = 1 sec
}```I gotchu
royal ravine
oh yeh i see
crimson vapor
first, work on a command to set the data
royal ravine
uum
crimson vapor
then in the main file, you can work on a function to keep updating it
royal ravine
first, work on a command to set the data
@crimson vapor like if it is enabled ?
royal ravine
okay
crimson vapor
so the command will only set the data for the json, instead of making an interval which will reset when the bot goes offline
you can do that in a different file
royal ravine
jup
adn then check if that command is enabled in a server ?
and then ceck the channel id if it stil exists ?
crimson vapor
one sec, im editing your code so I can better explain what you would be doing
royal ravine
ah thanks
earnest phoenix
Hi, i have a problem, i use shortand if for do a variable that save a value or other value
let roleOwner = membersWithRoleOwner == [] ? "Vacio" : membersWithRoleOwner.join('\n');
membersWithRoleOwner is a array that should have all the users with that role
but one role dont have any member so i do that condition
but the console returns nothing
any solution?
earnest phoenix
if the array is empty or no
quartz kindle
membersWithRoleOwner.length
crimson vapor
alright
crimson vapor
I cannot help with the function on the index.js but the command would be just defining the data
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle so umm... Remember the help i asked?
How can i set my userinfo command to show info of the user that's mentioned by their ID's...?
royal ravine
should i save everything in one json file ?
crimson vapor
up to you
royal ravine
so the serverid channel id and if the function is enabled ?
crimson vapor
first, define theme, then define serverID and channelID, and set Chan[serverID] = channelID, then write to the json. then you can do the message.channel.send @royal ravine
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix how do you get the user now?
royal ravine
yeh
crimson vapor
when you are done, please show your code
royal ravine
and how to check if the channel exists ?
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle wdym?
You mean like message.author and message.mentions.users.first()?
crimson vapor
here is fine I think
royal ravine
okay
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix yes, so basically you have to add another option in that line
earnest phoenix
And that option is what I'm asking for...
What's the code for it?
slate oyster
@lyric mountain https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2017/06/30/5-things-to-know-about-reactive-programming/
Sorry to take so long on reply
quartz kindle
do you parse message arguments in any way?
ie: args = message.content.split() or something
earnest phoenix
Yea?
quartz kindle
then you use args[0] to first check if it exists, then check if its a number, then check if the number is a user id
earnest phoenix
And then how's the code done for that?
quartz kindle
whats your discord.js version again?
earnest phoenix
12.0.2
royal ravine
@crimson vapor if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "START"))
{
var interval = setInterval (function () {
var theme = Math.floor(Math.random() * Themes.length);
var serverID = message.guild.id
var channelID = message.channel.id
Chan[serverID] = channelID;
fs.writeFileSync("./C.json", JSON.stringify(Chan));
if (message.guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.id === Chan[serverID])){
message.channel.send("The theme of today is " + "`"+Themes[theme]+"`")
}
else
{
console.log("Channel not found!")
}
}, 1 * 1000); //1000 = 1 sec
}
thats what i have now
just what you said that when the bot goes offline it doesnt work anymroe
crimson vapor
yeah so I made something different
am I allowed to show or would it be spoonfeeding?
quartz kindle
let user;
if(message.mentions.users.size) {
user = message.mentions.users.first()
} else if(args[0] && !isNaN(args[0])) {
user = client.users.cache.get(args[0])
// or if the user is not cached, you have to do this instead
user = client.users.fetch(args[0]).catch(e => null)
} else {
user = message.author
}``` if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "START")) {
var theme = Math.floor(Math.random() * Themes.length);
var sID = message.guild.id
var cID = message.channel.id
Chan[sID] = cID;
fs.writeFileSync("./C.json", JSON.stringify(Chan));
message.channel.send("The theme of today is " + "" + Themes[theme] + "")
}``` this is what I madehmm
so you define the themem serverid channelid
then save it to json with ServerID:ChannelID
crimson vapor
yes
royal ravine
and then message
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle hmm imma try that...
royal ravine
hmm yeh i have kinda the same now i think
crimson vapor
you need a function on a different file that sends the theme
royal ravine
everything works fine now but i just have to fix that when to bot goes offline it will just work again
so like a loop where it checks
crimson vapor
yeah kinda
royal ravine
hmm okay i wil try that
crimson vapor
@royal ravine accept friend
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle tysm for the help... It worked...
astral yoke
Hello. For my bot I'm trying to show a cpu usage, however when I run the command, it says NaN bytes.
Let me show you.
https://prnt.sc/rg126r
.addField(CPU usage:, ${process.cpuUsage().heapUsed / 1024 / 1024} bytes., true)
prime cliff
Is this in js or c#?
astral yoke
js.
prime cliff
Cpu usage is not in bytes though that is ram 
astral yoke
Ah.
So how would I fix it so that one, it shows the usage, and two change bytes to something else?
summer torrent
prime cliff
That would be process.memoryUsage()
copper cradle
yes but cpu usage isn't measured in bytes
astral yoke
and what's it measured in?
modest maple
have a guess
copper cradle
the cpu usage is measured in clock ticks or seconds, => a percentage
astral yoke
ahh
summer torrent
i think you cant
smoky spire
Filter client.guilds.cache for if the guild has that user
dapper hill
Hello. I am new to discord bot developing and have some quistions. I am trying to get my bot online but keep hitting the same error. Could anyone explain what I am doing wrong?
if it isnt too hard could you please @ me when you repsond because I have this server muted
dapper hill
am I just really dumb?
earnest phoenix
yes
dapper hill
I figured
earnest phoenix
what was the problem
dapper hill
error at the bottom.
tight plinth
new discord.client --> new Discord.client
dapper hill
trying to get it online
zenith terrace
@dapper hill capital D in Discord.client
tight plinth
U forgot the caps
earnest phoenix
yes
dapper hill
im really dumb
shy kelp
also you'll wanna change bot.on stuff to client.on
zenith terrace
zenith terrace
Yea u defined it as client so it has to be changed from bot to client
Same error?
dapper hill
yes
zenith terrace
Did you install the discord.js package?
zenith terrace
Oof
shy kelp
One question.. did you save after changing it
dapper hill
no IU did not save
one moment
ya still doesnt work after save let me install discord.js
zenith terrace
Ok
copper cradle
you didn't even install d.js
earnest phoenix
So i made a command called ping for to say:
Latency is {latency}ms
API Latency is {API latency}ms```
All works but it shows `NaNms` in front of the `API Latency is`... What's wrong here?think about it for a moment
Hmm
radiant parcel
@earnest phoenix what app name in mobile?
earnest phoenix
@radiant parcel Termux
radiant parcel
Thank you 🥳🙂
earnest phoenix
Np
So... Solution anybody?
the result of your math floor returns NaN
Yup
Which NaN is aka not a number... But what's wrong there tho?
why do you need to floor in the first place
Umm... Just to get the result of how much of latency there is... Is there another solution to that?
do you even know what flooring a number means
Bruh moment
zenith terrace
@earnest phoenix
(`Pong! (took: ${msg.createdTimestamp - message.createdTimestamp}ms)`)
This is what I have
earnest phoenix
exactly that
but don't spoonfeed code
let them figure it out themselves
Hmm... Lemme try that real quick
vestal star
does guild.create run when somebody dm's my bot?
true ravine
It only fires when it joins a guild I think
vestal star
Okay
true ravine
DM's trigger the message event
vestal star
oh damn
earnest phoenix
@zenith terrace oh wait a minute... The one with the first code of my ping command is fine but what about the API Latency one?
The issue is the second code... After that first one...
earnest phoenix
Hmm... Imma check that real quick...
stop doing operations without knowing what they actually do
you saw it somewhere and now you're copypasting it
vestal star
Hmmmm, message.guild in a dm return null, but discord api docs say guild create runs on a dm too https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#guild-create
earnest phoenix
there's no need to floor or round since it's a time measurement for latency, milliseconds, it won't have a decimal
where tf does it say that @vestal star
vestal star
I misinterpreted it ¯_(ツ)_/¯
zenith terrace
Guild create only works when the bot joins a server
vestal star
ok
true ravine
Yeah that's what I thought as well
earnest phoenix
any dpy people?

r is null
earnest phoenix
but why?
i had it print the role id
and the role id matches
r = g.get_role(self.cfg.data[g.id]["streamer-role"])
im assuming its this line?
zenith terrace
Idk py
earnest phoenix
self.cfg.data[g.id]["streamer-role"] returns an integer id
modest maple
Because it seems to not be finding the role?
earnest phoenix
but thats what im asking tho
its a valid role
i can ping it by id
i had it print self.cfg.data[g.id]["streamer-role"] before it tried to grab the role
modest maple
Is the guild object the same guild object as it should be
earnest phoenix
ye. the config file is a yaml hold on
604823602973376522:
streamer-channel: 0
streamer-message: '%user% is streaming'
streamer-role: 0
643870039660953612:
streamer-channel: 643870039660953615
streamer-message: '%user% is streaming'
streamer-role: 682056617269002321
it skips the first guild
cuz nothing is set
modest maple
I ment are you getting passed the guild object you expect
earnest phoenix
wym?
it fetches the id from the config
that it gets from bot.fetch_guilds
similar code to my (working) config initialization code
modest maple
You are overriding g several times
modest maple
Also I don't advise doing lots of ws requests in a for loop
