ws? (and btw this wont loop every second, just for testing rn)
earnest phoenix
o
modest maple
And that doesn't matter that will loop through each guild
earnest phoenix
tru
earnest phoenix
cuz i can use bot.guilds once i run await bot.fetch_guilds once right?
modest maple
That means hundreds if not thousands of calls
And I mean why don't you just use bot guilds anyway instead of fetching it
earnest phoenix
didnt realize it fetched automatically
but that doesnt explain the role being None
modest maple
It returns none if it can't find that role
Either the id it's getting isn't valid for that guild object
earnest phoenix
but its the valid id for the role tho?
modest maple
I say either but that's the only thing
earnest phoenix
im really confused
cuz
@commands.command()
@commands.check_any(
commands.has_permissions(manage_roles=True, manage_guild=True),
commands.is_owner(),
commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
)
async def setstreamrole(self, ctx: commands.Context, role: discord.Role):
cfg: cogs.confighandler.ConfigHandler = self.bot.cfg
cfg.data[ctx.guild.id]["streamer-role"] = role.id
cfg.save()
await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(title="Role set", description=f"Streamer role set to {role.mention}"))
@commands.command()
async def getstreamrole(self, ctx: commands.Context):
cfg: cogs.confighandler.ConfigHandler = self.bot.cfg
role = cfg.data[ctx.guild.id]["streamer-role"]
await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(title="Role set", description=f"Streamer role is set to <@&{role}>"))
it sets (yaml data)[guild id]["streamer-role"] so i dont see why it wouldnt be valid
ok so
i put in a print g.roles and it gives nothing
but print await g.fetch_roles() works
so i'm assuming g.roles just isnt populating?

no library has THAT many breaking changes

I mean, discord.js can't make up their minds on what to name a method and how it does the same task (looking at you cache) so it probably does.

steel cloak
can you use svg images in an embed thumbnail? (ping me when you reply)
earnest phoenix
@steel cloak wait wdym by svg?
steel cloak
like the image format, at least i believe its an image format
earnest phoenix
Hmm lemme check that if it's possible real quick
@steel cloak which discord bot wrapper are you using?
steel cloak
JDA
earnest phoenix
Hmm... Sorry idk about that one... (I mean how's it's done...)
steel cloak
i mean i believe its all alike when it comes down to discord
earnest phoenix
But there's some noticable differences tho...
Have you checked some docs of that bot wrapper to check how is it possible or is it even possible?
steel cloak
it just mentions that .setThumbnail takes in a string in URL format lol
imma test more stuff and look around more. thanks for the help!
earnest phoenix
Np but you can set the thumbnail to the image you want with a link(just set the image as your pfp and use a bot that shows the URL of your avatar... Copy the link) and now paste it inside the .setThumbnail('URL')
If the svg format doesn't work... Change the image format to webp or png or jpng... That might work @steel cloak
steel cloak
oh yeah im aware of that. only thing is im using an API that returns images only in svg format and was just wondering if there was an easier way then having to convert them to png
earnest phoenix
You can convert the image format to anything you want with a online image format changer website or with a functional app...
This is a better and easier way

... so I'm looking into migrating to discord.js v12 but I'm confused about how to communicate between shards & master process:

what
earnest phoenix
In your code
wide ruin
yeah
earnest phoenix
Instead of token[1] directly put the token
earnest phoenix
........ But your not sharing the token
wide ruin
i would be
earnest phoenix
Oh dam
wide ruin
because its directly in main
earnest phoenix
Did u mention the path to the token
earnest phoenix
Hmmmm
earnest phoenix
@tight plinth do u know how to fix that
leaden gust
You're most likely not sending your token right
wide ruin
the bot is logging in
leaden gust
Ok if anyone has moved to discord.js v12 I seriously need some help understanding this. How the hell are you supposed to receive and respond to messages on a master process now?
They removed the message event from the manager and moved it to the Shard class, that's nice and all but the master process doesn't have a shard right? process.on('message') doesn't work and even if it did I still need to be able to reply to the specific shard who messaged me.
Except I know I should be able to do this because the ShardClientUtil class still has a send method that says "Sends a message to the master process.". Ok cool but how do I receive it? 
earnest phoenix
Ik 12v is so confusing
quartz kindle
try manager.on("message")
leaden gust
That's the old event
earnest phoenix
I am staying on 11v of now
leaden gust
it does not work now
quartz kindle
ah, it should be shard.on("message")
earnest phoenix
quartz kindle
the shard returned by spawn
wide ruin
@earnest phoenix i printed the token list
quartz kindle
spawn returns a shard instance
leaden gust
And that shard acts as the master shard, is that right?
quartz kindle
spawn returns a collection of shards
createShard returns a shard
so each shard has its own message events
leaden gust
Wait ok, hang on a sec, i understand that but that's just to handle messages sent to shards
quartz kindle
also to receive
leaden gust
But how about the messages sent to the master process using ShardClientUtil.send ?
There's no shard to receive those
OH I got it
Ok so the shard.on message is a handler for the message sent by the shard
Sorry took me a while
quartz kindle
manager.spawn().then(shards => {
shards.forEach(shard => {
shard.on("message", message => {
console.log(message)
})
})
})```Yes I got you, my bad I totally misunderstood the meaning of that
I thought shard.on(message) would define what code would run on the shard upon receiving a message
But it's just moving the manager's handler to the shard object
earnest phoenix
@wide ruin try regenerating the dbl token

is your code trying to load something that takes a long time?
or your code might be trying to load something that cannot be accessed while in use by another shard

define which channel that applies to: if(message.channel.id === "some id")
then check if the messages start with the command
````if(message.content.startsWith("yourcommand"))```
else delete the message

its just because we have 2 devs and its ignored on a git push

slender thistle
I smell dblpy
modest maple
you have a file to indicate being devmode of not, instead of just being a var
you get the token twice and only use the first one
you load tokens into a list using a one liner for loop even tho its only one line and just readlines(1) would work
you use context managers for everything other than what could actually benefit from it like open
your indentation in some places is 2 spaces others its 4
you override so much
slender thistle
Have you read the docs
slender thistle
Oh I thought you were yelling at someone else
modest maple
in no part of your code do you even call dbl
nor do you even set it up
modest maple
sigh
wide ruin
but the devmode file is .gitignored, so when i push, he still uses dev code
modest maple
so much is wrong
modest maple
- Dont override your tokens
- Get better varbile names
- use context managers correctly
- dont use a fucking file as a var
- dont randomly slap in a class and remove self
- dont put a class randomly in some code and hope it works
- learn pep 8 please god
- actually put classes and functions where they want to be to work with varbles etc not randomly in what ever code to make it work

@earnest phoenix show the error
and show your code
I mean
it's the same logic
like not the samd but you get my point
show the error you're getting
alright
like
```js
code here
@earnest phoenix
that's a very inneficient way of doing it
you could have each channel name in an array
then loop through them and then create each channel
let names = ["name 1", "name 2", "name 3"];
for (let i = 0; i < names.length; i++) {
server.createChannel(names[i], "text").then(c => c.setParent(/*ya know what to do*/));
}
like so
well

earnest phoenix
learn how to keyword search
finite bough
message.channel.send(message.author.avatarURL)
earnest phoenix
What can I use for send an avatar when you use: !avatar Alessandroโก#7960
use regex to extract the username and discriminator from your argument and then search a user with the exact username and discriminator in your client cache
and no, i may not give you any code
copper cradle
yes
earnest phoenix
what about it
earnest phoenix
a mention doesn't exist there
finite bough
I thought he said mention at 1st
tight plinth
@finite bough search by username is just args.join(' ')
finite bough

tru
earnest phoenix
an inefficient but a functional lookup would be to map all members to a string in username#discriminator format and then find a match based on the input string
tight plinth
.split('#')

i'm pretty sure you can have hashtags in usernames
tight plinth

earnest phoenix

thats the problem
quartz kindle
dont you need to install it in your project?
you installed it in a different folder
quartz kindle
quartz kindle
create the category first, then create the channels using the category as parent in the channel options
by reading the docs
also, you cant do so many async operations at once
you need to use an async function and properly await each request
else you will get rate limited
whats your current code?
use code blocks
``` code here ```
first remove the require("discord.js"), you're not using it anywhere
then make everything an async function: exports.run = async function(...)
finite bough
._.
finite bough
python dev should know that too
a
export run has nothing to do with DC bots
lmao
quartz kindle
then, you cannot delete channels like that, if you have 50 channels, your bot will try to delete them all at once, which will send 50 requests to discord at once, and will get you rate limited
you have to use a regular loop, and await each request
quartz kindle
for(let channel of message.guild.channels) {
await channel.delete()
}```tim: stfu I am trying to help this guy and u r ruining the fun

How come channels become uncached when they no longer exist (aka bot left server) but users remain cached even if the bot has no common servers with them
(discord.js if that's relevant)
quartz kindle
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
i guess channels may get deleted/changed when the bot rejoins, while users will most likely still exists, except for maybe a username change
so channels would need to be fetched again regardless, while users not
true ravine
The user I'm testing with is an alt that is only in one server and when I kick the bot from that server it can't get the channel name but it can still get the alt's tag
quartz kindle
also, not sure about this one, but can users still dm the bot if they have no servers in common?
earnest phoenix
no
true ravine
Nah clyde goes sicko
quartz kindle
lmao
true ravine
I store channel, guild and user ID's in a db when a certain command is run but I want to delete them when the user isn't accessible, and yet it stays cached until I reboot
I don't want to have to reboot every 10 seconds that's boring
copper cradle
lmao
quartz kindle
well, just remove it from the cache yourself
quartz kindle
lul
quartz kindle
v11 or v12?
true ravine
v11 at the moment
copper cradle
hack the lib 
quartz kindle
client.users.delete(id)
true ravine
Oh right thanks
true ravine
But how is the bot gonna know whether to delete from the cache if it doesn't know if the user is actually accessible or not
quartz kindle
you mean how will it know if the user left all common servers?
true ravine
Yeah
quartz kindle
you'd need to try fetching it i guess
true ravine
And then catch?
quartz kindle
although i think you can still fetch users that dont share servers
quartz kindle
let me test real quick
true ravine
Oh okay thanks
quartz kindle
welp i can still fetch them
true ravine
Bruh
quartz kindle
there doesnt seem to be a noticeable difference between a user who shares and doesnt shares servers with the bot
finite bough
tho
quartz kindle
unless the users i tested are actually in servers with my bot that i dont know about
lmao
finite bough
hmmm
true ravine
Does fetchUser check cache or send a http request?
finite bough
@buoyant smelt
dm this bot
nvm
can ya like invite me to a server with a bot which is not here
quartz kindle
it checks cache and then sends it if not cached
finite bough
and then I will leave and try to msg it
quartz kindle
the bot doesnt think, it checks lol
true ravine
They are going to take over
quartz kindle
anyway, i cant think about a reliable way to check when a user becomes unavailable to the bot
besides trying to fetch it in all guilds to see if hes still present in some of them
true ravine
Maybe I'll just have to pretend that everything is fine but then use catch blocks on stuff
quartz kindle
if you can, just leave it in your database, thats what i do
you can implement some sort of "last seen" field in your database
and delete it if he hasnt been seen for like 1 month or a year
true ravine
Nah I think I'm just gonna have to catch stuff
quartz kindle
wdym?
true ravine
It attempts to send a message to a channel (whose id is in db) and mention a user (whose id is in the db) but if it can't find that user and or channel then I just catch that and delete it from db
true ravine
user.send("test")
.catch(()=>{
//delete from db
})
Like this
how can i reverse a collection
Put it in the opposite order you mean?
small prairie
yup
finite bough
well tim
true ravine
ig you could use sort
finite bough
if I leave this server and try to msg u after 1 second
pretty sure it will not work
so either try leaving ur bot server and msging ur bot
or ask someone else to join and leave and msg
thats pretty reliable I think
quartz kindle
but the idea is have the bot detect it, not the user
ah you mean to test if you can still dm the bot with no shared servers?
@true ravine if you're using an unmodified discord.js channels are always cached
so you can do js if(client.channels.get(id from db)) { ....send() }
finite bough
yea
quartz kindle
and in the send you can simply type <@user id from db>
true ravine
What about guilds?
true ravine
Hmmm
When I kick the bot from the server and do bot.guilds.get(id of server i just kicked it from) it can't find it
Which is what I want
But I want the user to behave the same way
quartz kindle
you cant have the user behave the same way
but you dont need it to
you can mention users even if they are not available
true ravine
That's not the only thing it does with the ids, it was just an example
quartz kindle
it will show the mention to people who have the user available, and just show <239847283740825> to those who dont
true ravine
Yeah I know that
quartz kindle
then what is it?

Hey! Is there a way to time a message? (Like every hour the bot will send a message?)
I searched on stack overflow but couldn't find anything
pale vessel
Programming language?
tough relic
Python
modest maple
generally a bad idea to automatically send messages
but make a coro and a while loop and create a task in a event loop
finite bough
hourly msgs r usefull
pale vessel
depends
modest maple
discord no likey them

@tough relic cronjob
tough relic
Thanks I will see what cronjob is!
lyric mountain
It's a thing designed specially for doing scheduled tasks, it's present in almost all languages as a library
restive furnace
or timeout
lyric mountain
restive furnace
on js setTimeout(() => function_here, time_in_ms)
on py while true: function & time.sleep(time_in_secs) (you need to import time)
easy
lyric mountain
Except that way you'll not run that code precisely each hour
Since everytime you restart the code the timer will go back
restive furnace
yes?
lyric mountain
He wants to send a message every hour

bot.users.get("686698479271280640").send
Why does bot.users.get() return undefined? The user ID is me btw.
pale vessel
djs version?
restive furnace
@lyric mountain yes? you can do it that way?
lyric mountain
Was that a question or an affirmation?
restive furnace
affirmation
lyric mountain
timeout works wonders as delay, but not as precise scheduling of tasks
While cron is the inverse
restive furnace
okay

@earnest phoenix make sure you're using the correct client instance and that the client is ready
earnest phoenix
mhm
pale vessel
and that you defined client as bot
earnest phoenix
im sure
quartz kindle
show code
earnest phoenix
let me get back on my pc
might take a few more mind
mins
I may have defined a client twice
oops

how ..--..
earnest phoenix
Don't ask lol
global.Discord = require('discord.js');
global.moment = require('moment');
global.fs = require('fs');
global.ms = require('ms');
global.request = require('request');
global.chalk = require('chalk');
global.bot = new Discord.Client();
global.config = require('./config.json');
global.result = require('./config.json');
global.client = new Discord.Client();
Still get the same error
finite bough
either use client or bot
earnest phoenix
bot.on("message", async (message) => {
if (message.channel.type == "dm"){
bot.users.get("686698479271280640").send(`${message.author.username}\n``${message.content}`` `);
const collectorr = client.users.get("686698479271280640").dmChannel.createMessageCollector({ time: 1500000 });
collectorr.on('collect', m => {
message.author.send(`Reply from _:\n**${m}**`);
})
return;
}
I used both
same emitted the same error.

You can make a bot with whatever language you want, there's pretty much one lib for every one.

Okay. Thanks.

but tip: theres no need to use so that low-level language, you can even use python (med/high-level).

What is it @restive furnace

html = js
finite bough
@earnest phoenix error?
earnest phoenix
@finite bough no
lyric mountain
Html = [js, php, css]
restive furnace
yes
restive furnace
you literially said it
lyric mountain
I defined an array
restive furnace
Html = [js, php, css]

Usually for that stuff I use message.channel.type != 'text' @earnest phoenix
lyric mountain
An array of languages
hoary elm

earnest phoenix
@hoary elm ty i will try now.
lyric mountain
Html wraps then all, but isn't a lang at all
Html is the outside of the pepperoni
restive furnace
console.log(html == html) // returns true ```php is no way near the same as html lol

Technically,ย HTMLย is aย programming language. In fact,ย HTMLย stands for Hypertext Markupย Language. ... WhileHTMLย and CSS are declarative, mostcodingย is computational - and it's what most otherย codingย languages are designed for.30.4.2019

If it was a programming language then it'd be PL, not HTML

It is but it's more for Web Browser related stuff

Finally

its a declarative programming language, as opposed to an imperative programming language
