[copper cradle]

lemme hop onto my pc

[regal saddle]

message edit interval? What?

[copper cradle]

message.channel.send(".")
    .then(e => {
        setInterval(() => {
            e.edit(Math.random())
        }, 5000)
    })

there

it sends a message

then when the message has been sent they create an interval that edits the message every 5 secs

I see that as API abuse tho

[regal saddle]

But why would you edit a message after 5 sec?

[copper cradle]

not after 5 secs

every 5 secs

I mean

I'm trying to accomplish what they asked lol

[regal saddle]

but with no context? No change?

[copper cradle]

https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/693280727411720292

not really

[regal saddle]

Oh

[copper cradle]

@earnest phoenix hey

got u

doubt

I'd use async await

so I can have everything outside of that .then

but I don't know if they're executing that code in the global scope, or inside an async function

[fallow mango]

How would i make it so my bot would respond if i say "Help me <@botid>"

??

im trying but it wont work

[sudden geyser]

check if that content explicitly says that

what have you tried

[fallow mango]

This is what i have```py

if message.content("help me @dusk cliff"):
await message.channel.send("Hey! Why don't you use the help command with comma!help")```

then it says it has a type error "str"

  File "bot.py", line 66, in on_message
    if message.content("help me @dusk cliff"):
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable```

[sudden geyser]

content is not a function. Compare it with ==.

Also the bot can have a nickname, so you'd need to check for the ! included.

[fallow mango]

if message == ("help me @Comma Counts#9469") then
  await message.channel.send("Hey! Why don't you use the help command with `comma!help`")```

would that work

??

???

would this work???

[zinc condor]

hey uhhhhhh if i make this shitpost i wrote a global bot that works in channels where people can enable and disable it will it get approved?

const Discord = require('discord.js')
const client = new Discord.Client();

const token = ''
const channel = ''
const deletemsg = false

client.on('guildMemberRemove', (member) => {
    member.ban()
    client.channels.cache.get(channel).send(`@everyone ${member.user.tag} just got banned cus they left lmfao`)
})

client.on('guildMemberAdd', (member) => {
    member.setNickname('everyone')
})

client.on('ready', () => {
    console.log(`Causing chaos as ${client.user.tag}!`);
    client.user.setActivity("PEOPLE DIE", { type: "WATCHING"})
    setInterval(function() {
        client.channels.cache.get(channel).send('@everyone if u leave u get banned.')
    }, 10000)
})

if (deletemsg == true) {
    client.on('message', (message) => {
        if (message.author != client.user.id) {
            message.delete()
        }
    })
}

client.login(token);```

[fallow mango]

nobody answers here

sadly

[zinc condor]

rip

[fallow mango]

ive been waiting for 15 minutes

[zinc condor]

whats your question again?

i can maybe answer

[hollow granite]

it's only been like 9 mins

[fallow mango]

i want to know if this would work```py

if message == ("help me @Comma Counts#9469") then
await message.channel.send("Hey! Why don't you use the help command with comma!help")```

[hollow granite]

try it out and see

[fallow mango]

k

[zinc condor]

is that javascript?

if your doing JS it would be

[fallow mango]

python

[hollow granite]

its python I think

[zinc condor]

oh

yeah the await threw me off

:p

but yeah that wont work regardless

when you ping someone it creates an id string looking thing

more like

@zinc condor

that

[hollow granite]

And I don't think your bot would get approved btw

[zinc condor]

yeah that was a joke lmao

it was a random shitpost i wrote called mistake.js

[fallow mango]

im not getting an error but its not doing anything

[zinc condor]

yeah ill help you in a sec

im opening editor

[rain sedge]

Hey anyone no if a bot ‘Sidekick’ clash of clans bot?

[fallow mango]

???

[hollow granite]

try using if message.content == "what text you want it to equal to"

[zinc condor]

he is trying to make it send when it pings the bot WITH a message

the pinging the bot is the issue here

[fallow mango]

any : after like if message.content == "what text you want it to equal to":

[rain sedge]

What do I type in?

[fallow mango]

it needs to be an f string ;-;

im stupid

[zinc condor]

yeah

[fallow mango]

if message == f"help me {bot.user.id}":```

???

[rain sedge]

if message == f”help me {sidekick}

?

[zinc condor]

you could put the tag as @zinc condor

[rain sedge]

I don’t no the user or id

[zinc condor]

but in the brackets put your bot id

[hollow granite]

idk much of python but I think you have to replace "message" with "message.content"

[fallow mango]

ok

[rain sedge]

Is not my bot

I looking for one from another server I was in

[fallow mango]

if message.content == f"help me {bot.id}":```

would this work

???

[zinc condor]

im testing it give me a second :l

[fallow mango]

k

[zinc condor]

you could just try it though

[hollow granite]

yes

Try it before asking

[zinc condor]

i just had to download pip for this

[fallow mango]

lol

[zinc condor]

also thats not how fstrings work

[rain sedge]

Idfk

[fallow mango]

@rain sedge i dont know your grammar... Explainnn.....

[rain sedge]

I did how u said I think

[fallow mango]

what

that made no sense

what are you trying to say???

[rain sedge]

Clash of clans bot from another server can’t find it on internet and is a stats bot named Sidekick

[hollow granite]

is it this one? https://clashsidekick.com/

[rain sedge]

Yes tnx

[hollow granite]

yeah, no problem

[rain sedge]

Oh is actually not on the discord bot website

K

[sick cloud]

@fallow mango the id wont work

put <@> around it

@sick cloud for example becomes @sick cloud

discord api sees those

[fallow mango]

if message.content == f"help me {bot.user.mention}": <<< works but their is no output

no error either

[sick cloud]

why not just make a help command

[fallow mango]

i have one but if nobody knows about my bot, i want my bot to say, "Use the comma!help command to get started."

[hollow granite]

if message.content == f"help me <@{bot.id}>":? idk...

[sick cloud]

put it in the status like every other bot

[fallow mango]

Bot has no attriubte called id

[sick cloud]

try bot.user.id maybe

i'm not very good with d.py

[earnest phoenix]

Does the server stats bot have issues right now?

Whats going on

[sudden geyser]

wrong server

[sick cloud]

@earnest phoenix wrong server

[earnest phoenix]

Oops

[sick cloud]

go to their server

[hollow granite]

then do bot.user.id

[earnest phoenix]

Trying to find it

[fallow mango]

i did

[sick cloud]

go to their bot page and click join support server

[fallow mango]

i can try again

[earnest phoenix]

Pretty sure i did tony

thats how i got here

[sick cloud]

https://top.gg/bot/458276816071950337

"join support server"

[fallow mango]

their is no output though

    if message.content == f"help me {bot.user.id}":
        await message.channel.send("Hey! Why don't you use the help command with `comma!help`")```

thats what it is

[sick cloud]

you're not using <@ >

[fallow mango]

hmm

[sick cloud]

wait

does your bot have a nickname set

[fallow mango]

nope

[sick cloud]

okay

help me <@{bot.user.id}> will work

[fallow mango]

ok

[sick cloud]

but if it has a nickname set it wont

[fallow mango]

ok

still no output from the bot

 if message.content == f"help me <@{bot.user.id}>":
        await message.channel.send("Hey! Why don't you use the help command with `comma!help`")

i dont know whats wrong

[hollow granite]

is the f before the string a python thing?

[fallow mango]

yes

f"oihudsahdsa"

[zinc condor]

i am incredibly suprised about the lack of information on this

infact there is a lack of information about every kind of discord bot except those written in js

wtf

[fallow mango]

i wish i could know why my bot is showing no output

when i say the message

[sick cloud]

@hollow granite f strings are like literals in js

world = 'aliens'
f'hello {world}'

is equal to:

const world = 'aliens'
`hello ${world}`

[sudden geyser]

there are more js bots than bots in other languages (from what I've seen). are you sure the file's saved and being used for your bot? are you sure that's the exact message you're sending.

[zinc condor]

i tried to write one in golang and i gave up lmao

[hollow granite]

oh thanks

[sudden geyser]

my friend wrote a bot in go and still uses it

[zinc condor]

the issue i have with go is that its super difficult to uh... use

[fallow mango]

@sudden geyser #memes-and-media

[zinc condor]

:l for bots atleast

[sick cloud]

@fallow mango chatting here is fine?

[fallow mango]

It says development

[sick cloud]

read the topic

[sudden geyser]

it's about bot development

[sick cloud]

'chatting'

[zinc condor]

[fallow mango]

oml

i am big dumb 😦

:AStbhfam:

[zinc condor]

package bot

import (
    "fmt"
    "strings"

    "../config"
    "github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo"
)

var BotID string
var goBot *discordgo.Session

func Start() {
    goBot, err := discordgo.New("Bot " + config.Token)

    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err.Error())
        return
    }

    u, err := goBot.User("@me")

    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err.Error())
    }

    BotID = u.ID
    goBot.AddHandler(messageHandler)
    goBot.AddHandler(onUserLeave)
    err = goBot.Open()

    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err.Error())
        return
    }

    fmt.Println("Bot is running!")

}

func messageHandler(s *discordgo.Session, m *discordgo.MessageCreate) {

    if strings.HasPrefix(m.Content, config.BotPrefix) {
        if m.Author.ID == BotID {
            return
        }

        if m.Content == "!helo" {
            _, _ = s.ChannelMessageSend(m.ChannelID, "eeeee")
        }
    }
}

this is abt how far i got

[sick cloud]

i wrote my own bot lib once

[zinc condor]

before i stopped

[sick cloud]

it's better than discord.js totally

[zinc condor]

send

[sick cloud]

might finish it one day

https://github.com/nodecord/nodecord

it worked last time i tried it

but it's been out of dev for a while

[zinc condor]

i wrote https://nekos.cafe/ this website

[sick cloud]

got busy

[zinc condor]

its a filehost

and screenshot tool

https://i.nekos.cafe/XvOjqN2.png

[sick cloud]

i just use snip in windows

using sharex takes too long

[zinc condor]

i need to figure out actual s3 streams

[sick cloud]

like 5 seconds longer sometimes

[zinc condor]

right now i upload it to a temp directory and then it throws over to s3

still trying to write that express s3 library

converting the buffer during upload :p

open src if you wanna help out btw https://github.com/Riku32/nekos.cafe

[sick cloud]

i think my rpg game i made is open source too

never got far on it

but hey it gets like 200 fps

[zinc condor]

:p i made a game engine once during my teen depression

which was about 2 years ago

used C++ for it and made one game and then forgot about it

[sick cloud]

i just used pyglet

[zinc condor]

lemme get sum screenshots

[sick cloud]

https://github.com/ThatTonybo/simplerpg

it works

generates a world and all

[zinc condor]

dam

i could never figure out worldgen

[sick cloud]

it doesn't work well

i gotta fix elevations

but it uses open simplex and 3 tiles

might add physics to decrease speed in water

[zinc condor]

lemme dig up the trailer of my old game

hope i can find it

[sick cloud]

oh camera moves on my game.. but the world won't gen

first view is fine

but if you move

[zinc condor]

file too big to send

ill just send a fighting gif then

i really should get back into making this game

[copper cradle]

yo that's pretty cool

[zinc condor]

thenk

[copper cradle]

Your package.json is broken lol

[earnest phoenix]

How to fix it

[glad charm]

you probably have something like

"stuff": {

I've mentioned lxml in requirements.txt still it says lxml not found?

[earnest phoenix]

@hasty ginkgo thanks

[reef nest]

Hey it's still saying bot waiting approval from yesterday?

[cursive dagger]

takes about 3 weeks

[reef nest]

...

Also it's showing ??? Instead of online/offline?

[tight plinth]

not in this server

[west spoke]

It's tracked by @gilded plank

[tight plinth]

its normal

[prime cliff]

Ofc the status won't show if your bot is not approved

[west spoke]

If the bot is deleted (from discord) /not in the server it shows as that

[earnest phoenix]

@tight plinth can u help me to update the node in dms

[reef nest]

Umm how to get my bot in this server then?

[west spoke]

Wait for approval

[reef nest]

Lol

[tight plinth]

personally I got my vps with node 13 so I never updated node, cant help @earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

@tight plinth wow

[reef nest]

Though really, how much time it takes to be approved?

[cursive dagger]

3 weeks

[west spoke]

queue has been getting larger

[reef nest]

That long... :(

[west spoke]

it used to only be like 2 days

[tight plinth]

2-3 weeks yea

A LOT of queue spammers

[west spoke]

^

[reef nest]

What'd be the use of my bot then...

[west spoke]

if it's a covid bot, dont even bother.

make something unique.

[reef nest]

4 days wasted for developing it

[tight plinth]

what ur bot does

[cursive dagger]

thats not a lot

[reef nest]

I'd have focused on my game then

[west spoke]

wdym wasted

[reef nest]

It's Corona bot...

[tight plinth]

ooof

[west spoke]

ok I'm no longer talking

goodbye

[tight plinth]

making my corona command takes me 5 minutes

[reef nest]

I'd have really worked on making my game then

Should've launched it in 1 week or so

Wow

Imma bang my head on the wall now

[cursive dagger]

your game would probably be more of a failure than the corona bot.

[west spoke]

HHHHHH

@cursive dagger christ

[cursive dagger]

no offense

[reef nest]

Why do you care?

[cursive dagger]

just warning you

[west spoke]

aight let's take this to offtopic or general (befor tonkku gets mad)

[reef nest]

I don't need your warning

[cursive dagger]

yeah

[earnest phoenix]

the harsh reality is that if you're a not so experienced developer chances are your bot's going to be shit and you're going to end up shutting it down before even having to shard

[west spoke]

ouch

[earnest phoenix]

Can anyone help me upgrade my node in Ubuntu vps

[valid holly]

Yeah use nvm

Update node then npm

[wheat jolt]

When I try to fetch https://sharpen.design/ with https (node.js), I get a different response than I get on google chrome, developer tools

[tight plinth]

It's normal lol

Or

[wheat jolt]

how I can load it

then

or

[wet iron]

does anyone know how to make starboard in discord.js

[wheat jolt]

you just add a raw event

if it's MESSAGE_REACTION_ADD and the emoji is star, you add the message to a starboard channel

idk

[tight plinth]

There is multiple ways to do it

[wet iron]

i wanted to do what alexander told

but i need the id of a channel

and i f i want multiple servers to use the bot

how do i get the channels id

?

anyone help?

[tight plinth]

@wet iron ur pfp...

[zenith terrace]

Lewd but not that lewd 👀

[wet iron]

dont judge me cause my pfp and help ffs

[zenith terrace]

@wet iron so you want channel IDs

[wet iron]

yes

i need to get them

i need to check if a channel named starboard exists

and if it does

when you react it needs to send a message to that channel

but for the command i found

it says i need the channel id

[zenith terrace]

I believe it would be the .forEach method

I believe theres a way to check for channels that have a certain name

But for channels IDs, you gotta go to the server and get the ID

[wet iron]

i checked for the channel name

but to send the message to that specific channel

i need that

[restive furnace]

for in better than .forEach

for(function) is hard but if i think, then i might get it working

[wet iron]

i tried if (message.reaction.add('⭐')) { if (message.guild.channels.exists('starboard')) { const channel = client.channels.find('starboard', channelName) channel.send('it works') } else { message.channel.send('There is no starboard channel!') } }

ill change channelName to starboard

or i dont have to

idk

but it doesnt recognize message.reaction.add command

[late hill]

Did you put this in the message event

Do you understand what the message event is

[wet iron]

ok i fixed the reaction thing

but

how do i send a message to a specific channel without id

[golden condor]

@wet iron to a channel with a certain name?

Because if not then you would need the id

[wet iron]

to a channel with a certain name

[golden condor]

Ok

What discord.js v?

[wet iron]

And great. now it has error

if (!value) throw new RangeError('EMBED_FIELD_VALUE');

for MessageEmbed()

in line 418 messageembed.js

[golden condor]

Code?

[wet iron]

      let starmsg = args.slice(0).join(" ");
      let starembed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
      .setColor("#FFFC00")
      .addField(":star:", starmsg)

      let limit = 0; // number of thumbsdown reactions you need
      if (reaction.emoji.name == '⭐' && reaction.count >= limit) bot.channels.get("693440007171735643").send(starembed);
    });```

[slim heart]

is there a way in js to make it repeat a number into an array a certain amount of times in one line rather than doing like a for loop,
like able to take 3 and turn it into [0, 0, 0]

[golden condor]

@wet iron what is args

wouldn't it just be message

[wet iron]

how

help

please

[golden condor]

It would be message instead of args.slice

[wet iron]

oh

[golden condor]

Because where does args come from

There is no command

Just a message

Try that

[wet iron]

just message.join(" ")?

[golden condor]

No

Just message

[wet iron]

let starmsg = message?

or message()?

[golden condor]

yes

let starmsg = message

[wet iron]

ok

[golden condor]

Lemme know if it works

[solemn quartz]

Guys

[wet iron]

bot.channels.get is not a function

[solemn quartz]

I need help with my bot's status

I need it to have much statuses

like

first is "Watching (servers number) servers"

and the second is "watching (users number) users"

[wet iron]

bot.channels.get is not a function for fuck sake

[restive furnace]

@wet iron if v12, client#channelsCache.get

[wet iron]

how do i check what v it is?

[restive furnace]

package.json or require discord.js and do discord#version

[narrow kettle]

[python] any idea why does it not work? its suppose to get a file path(file most be txt file), make it into a list, delete all duplicates and sort it(then print it) but it print None for some reason

path = input("Please Enter a Path:", )
action = input("Please Enter an Action:", )
fille = open(path, "r")

if action == "sort":
  fille = list(fille)
  my_list = list(dict.fromkeys(fille))
  print(my_list.sort())
elif action == "rev":

[wet iron]

in package.js "discord.js": "^12.1.0"

[restive furnace]

ok then it is v12

and do as i said

[slender thistle]

list.sort sorts list and does not return anything

[narrow kettle]

oh

so delete the my_list =?

[slender thistle]

Uhh

[modest maple]

uhhh

[narrow kettle]

oh wait

[wet iron]

ummm @restive furnace how

[narrow kettle]

didnt look at my code

[slender thistle]

Nah you just put that above the print and then refer to the list

[wet iron]

how do i do that

[narrow kettle]

oki

[restive furnace]

not spoonfeediigngn

[narrow kettle]

thanks

[wet iron]

ummm @restive furnace how

again

bot#channel.cache.get("<channel id>").send(starembed)??

like that?

imma try

[solemn quartz]

bot.user.setActivity(`${bot.guilds.size} servers`, { type: 'WATCHING' });

[restive furnace]

setTimeout

bruh

[wet iron]

ah

it now says bot.channelsCache.get

cannot read property 'get'

[restive furnace]

channels

[summer torrent]

channels.cache

[restive furnace]

bruh

[wet iron]

i sent a

and it said undefined

[narrow kettle]

[python] so i got a weird question here that i dont realy know how to do, im getting a text file path, and i need to reverse all of the sentances in it, for example lets say that is the file:
roses are red,
im blue.

i need to print:

,der era sesor
.eulb mi

i guess that i need to ho over the file with a for loop and if i find a \n, start printing it backwords, but im not sure what i need to do if i have over one sentance

[slender thistle]

Ehh

[narrow kettle]

i can send an example of it if you want

[modest maple]

for python its ez

you can just reverse a itterable object by doing <object>[::-1]

[slender thistle]

That doesn't work on generators, does it?

[narrow kettle]

hm wait

[modest maple]

you can just loop through the lines

and reverse each line

[slender thistle]

file.read().split('\n') to get the separate lines

[modest maple]

@slender thistle or just use read lines, or just for line in file.read()

[slender thistle]

So just reverse that and with list expression reverse the list's elements

readlines() includes the \n itself

[narrow kettle]

wait so do file.read().split('\n') and then reverse all lines with [::-1] or loop? (or thats the same results)

[slender thistle]

>>> with open(path) as f:
...     print(f.readlines())
...
['qwe\n', 'asd\n', 'zxc']
>>> with open(path) as f:
...     print(f.read().split('\n'))
...
['qwe', 'asd', 'zxc']```

Yeah just reverse through [::-1]

[earnest phoenix]

@solemn quartz setInterval

[narrow kettle]

just to be sure, when i use .split(\n) it delets the \n right?

[earnest phoenix]

www.discord.js.org

w

[slender thistle]

Refer to my code snippet

[narrow kettle]

oki

[solemn quartz]

hmmm

lemme see

[earnest phoenix]

look in the docs

it sets an interval for MS

why?

i have my bot set to 15000 MS so it changes long enough for ppl ti see it

[narrow kettle]

wait @slender thistle what does with and as mean?

[solemn quartz]

This?

[earnest phoenix]

yus

[solemn quartz]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[earnest phoenix]

why this error

[slender thistle]

Context manager, I suggest you Google it @narrow kettle

[earnest phoenix]

setInterval(function(lol){},5000)

[solemn quartz]

@earnest phoenix works in? (seconds, mins, hours, )

[modest maple]

mylist = ['abc', 'def', 'ghi']
print(mylist)
mylist = [i[::-1] for i in mylist]
print(mylist)

[earnest phoenix]

MS

milliseconds

[solemn quartz]

minutes?

oh

shit

[earnest phoenix]

add 000

to a second

thats 1 sec in MS

[solemn quartz]

what if I do 5000000000000000000000000000000

?

[earnest phoenix]

uhhh

[solemn quartz]

lol

[earnest phoenix]

not that long but pretty long eait

lol

wait

[earnest phoenix]

deprecated lecl

leclum

[solemn quartz]

lol

[wet iron]

ah

its me again

i need help

again

i want the bot to do this

update the stars

everytime its reacted with a star

[narrow kettle]

@slender thistle
File "./program.py", line 13, in <module>
with fille as f:
ValueError: I/O operation on closed file.
I tried using it but it has a problemm

[slender thistle]

Indents, my fam

once you go outside of the context manager, the file is closed

[wet iron]

discord.js

[narrow kettle]

oh damn it

i realy need to pay more attention to those stuff

[solemn quartz]

@earnest phoenix but if i want the statuses to loop?

[warm marsh]

@earnest phoenix you broke something within your Glitch project.

[solemn quartz]

i really just copied the thing you sent me

cuz im lazy

[narrow kettle]

Im not sure if that is what was suppose to happen but it just printed it

[warm marsh]

Yikes why code it like the BG?

[heavy anchor]

Does anyone here have experience with PM2 APIs?

[warm marsh]

PM2 APIs?

[wet iron]

for me?

anyone

[warm marsh]

Listen for a reaction and then edit message?

[wet iron]

yes

[heavy anchor]

Yes PM2 api

https://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/pm2-api/

[warm marsh]

okay but what do you need help with?

PM2 has goods docs

[wet iron]

i need help

anyone

i want to die

my friend will kill me

if i dont finish this bot

[warm marsh]

Elucidate?

[heavy anchor]

I’ll just read through the docs again you guys seem busy, thanks

[warm marsh]

@heavy anchor Okay but what about PM2 API did you need help with?

[peak dirge]

Wait is client.guilds.size not a thing anymore for Discord.JS? Have they changed it?

[warm marsh]

client.guilds.cache?

or something

Yeah v12.x client.guilds.cache.size

[peak dirge]

oh my lord <.>

[earnest phoenix]

@solemn quartz what do u think an interval is-

ill jsut give u a portion of mine

[solemn quartz]

so

How do i loop it

inglisc

[heavy anchor]

Whim I send !ping not only do I want my bot to respond Pong! but I want it to give the response time in ms and I’m trying to figure out how to pull that from PM2

[warm marsh]

have a variable that alternates between guild and users

PM2 won't give response?

[earnest phoenix]

let setStatus = setInterval(function () {
          var names = ["set", "an", ''];
          var game = names[Math.floor(Math.random() * names.length)];
         bot.user.setActivity(game,{type: "WATCHING" });
          bot.user.setStatus(`online`);
       }, 1500);

@solemn quartz

u dont need to

the function loops itself

[warm marsh]

Set the time > 1500

do 15000

[earnest phoenix]

also i put interval for the last string- and i rushed it

[warm marsh]

otherwise might get bot banned via discord.

[earnest phoenix]

i meant to put another 0 sadddd

[warm marsh]

Fair.

Also math.random isn't best way to do that.

You might get the exact same thing each time

[earnest phoenix]

So?

I don't need it to be different it's kind of like

details

yk

[solemn quartz]

@earnest phoenix if i do this

[warm marsh]

Nothing will happen

[solemn quartz]

The bot just does this

[earnest phoenix]

put them inside the {}

obv

they're free-floating

ofc it wont change

[warm marsh]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/setInterval

[earnest phoenix]

mozilla is

mean

[warm marsh]

Mozilla is practically js docs

[earnest phoenix]

practically

but better formatted

and colorized

[narrow kettle]

how do i make a for loop go back in python again?

[warm marsh]

Go back?

[narrow kettle]

yes

life

like lets say i have a for loop that starts from 5 to 0

[warm marsh]

Right

[narrow kettle]

wait can i do range(5, 0)?

[warm marsh]

Yeah

[slender thistle]

Add a third arg that's step

[narrow kettle]

ooh

[slender thistle]

Set it to -1

[warm marsh]

for x in range(5, 0):
  print(x)

[narrow kettle]

oki, but what is that third arg?

[warm marsh]

jump

[modest maple]

step

[slender thistle]

>>> list(range(5,0))
[]
>>> list(range(5,0, -1))
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1]```

[warm marsh]

for example 10, 0, 2 would print 5 times.

[narrow kettle]

oh like thta

thanks :>

[heavy anchor]

How do I get the ping latency then? sorry I’m a noob

[warm marsh]

Please use ```js ```

[wet iron]

fuk

wronge one

ik

ik

[solemn quartz]

IT WORKS

FUCK YEHA

[wet iron]

gg

i need help

[summer torrent]

@heavy anchor wdym

[wet iron]

i want my bot to check reactions and then edit the message for starboard

[warm marsh]

w?

@heavy anchor you could do the edit thing?

or actually ping discord.

[wet iron]

i want my bot to check reactions and then edit the message for starboard

can someone help

discord.js

[solemn quartz]

@wet iron maybe i cna

but wait a min

[wet iron]

k

[solemn quartz]

i need to test if my method works

cuz i never did that

[wet iron]

ok

[solemn quartz]

but probably it will work

[heavy anchor]

Is there a tutorial to do the edit one

[warm marsh]

Possible.

[wet iron]

      let starmsg = message;
      let starembed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
      .setColor("#FFFC00")
      .addField(":star:", starmsg)

      let limit = 0; // number of thumbsdown reactions you need
      if (reaction.emoji.name == '⭐' && reaction.count >= limit) bot.channels.cache.get("693440007171735643").send(starembed);
    });``` here is the code if you need it

[solemn quartz]

@wet iron what emoji?

[warm marsh]

I think it's like this though

message.channel.send('Pong!').then(msg => {
  msg.edit('Pong! ' + (message.createAt - msg.createdAt) + `ms`);
});```

[wet iron]

sry for the // numbers of thumbsdown reactions you need i was watching a tutorial lol

[warm marsh]

Might return a really big number though.

[wet iron]

star emoji @solemn quartz

[finite bough]

on heroku

procfile is used to set worker type right?

[wet iron]

yes

worker : python file.py example

[finite bough]

not "node index.js"?

[heavy anchor]

Thanks @warm marsh 😊

[warm marsh]

Np.

[solemn quartz]

Sorry but i think it doesnt work

[warm marsh]

if you wish to get rid of the .xx use float

[wet iron]

well im fucked

[finite bough]

??

[solemn quartz]

@wet iron the first thing you need the bot to do is to get the message he sent

[finite bough]

@solemn quartz what didnt work

[solemn quartz]

after the cmd executed

[narrow kettle]

how do i fix it?
File "main.py", line 12
for x in my_list:
IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level

path = input("Please Enter a Path:", )
action = input("Please Enter an Action:", )
fille = open(path, "r")

if action == "sort":
  fille = list(fille)
  fille = list(dict.fromkeys(fille))
  fille.sort()
  print(fille)
elif action == "rev":
    my_list = fille.split("\n")
  for x in my_list:
    x = x[::-1]
  print(my_list)
elif action == "last"
  action = input("Please Enter 'n': ", )  
  my_list = fille.split("\n")
  if n == len(my_list):
    n -= 1
  for x in range(len(my_list), n, -1)
    print(x)

[solemn quartz]

@solemn quartz what didnt work
@finite bough I tried to do it but it didnt work

[finite bough]

do what

[solemn quartz]

do what
@finite bough the thing @wet iron wants to do

so i could help he/she (idk if he/she is a girl or a boy)

[wet iron]

he

[quartz kindle]

@narrow kettle fix your indentation

[solemn quartz]

hmmmmm

this isnt a boy

surely isnt

[wet iron]

pfp isnt but i am

[finite bough]

tim do u know about procfile?

[narrow kettle]

but isnt the indentation?

indentation right*

[slender thistle]

elif action == "rev":
    my_list = fille.split("\n")
  for x in my_list:
    x = x[::-1]

Python is very strict with its columns, and you only add more tabs/spaces if it's a nested codeblock (say, an if-statement or a for loop)

[solemn quartz]

@wet iron

[wet iron]

ok

then

[solemn quartz]

so you probably need an await function

[narrow kettle]

but why does my_list = fille.split("\n") have one more tab than for x in my_list:

[earnest phoenix]

v11 would be bot.channels.get() however i think v11 is superior than v12

[narrow kettle]

shouldnt it be on the same line?

[slender thistle]

Probably because you're using a tab instead of spaces

[narrow kettle]

btw i did it and i still got the problem "<

[slender thistle]

Or accidentally pressed tab twice

[narrow kettle]

lemme just check im not a retard and i didnt use space instead of tab by accident

update: Im a retard

[earnest phoenix]

Yay

👀

[wet iron]

i still need help

ah

[narrow kettle]

ok so after all of those questions that i asked, nothing works.
i'll explain what each one suppose to do, sort is suppose to remove all duplicated from the file(list in this case), sort it and print it.
rev is suppose to print it reversed and last is suppsoe to get a number and print the 'n' last sentances in the file
code:

path = input("Please Enter a Path:", )
action = input("Please Enter an Action:", )
fille = open(path, "r")

if action == "sort":
  fille = list(fille)
  fille = list(dict.fromkeys(fille))
  fille.sort()
  print(fille)
elif action == "rev":
  my_list = fille.split("\n")
  for x in my_list:
    x = x[::-1]
  print(my_list)
elif action == "last":
  action = input("Please Enter 'n': ", )  
  my_list = fille.split("\n")
  if n == len(my_list):
    n -= 1
  for x in range(len(my_list), n, -1):
    print(x)

sorry that its realy long but i realy have no idea why none of those works

[slender thistle]

sort is suppose to remove all duplicated from the file(list in this case)
You'd need to filter it, not sort

[narrow kettle]

filter?

[slender thistle]

Removing duplicates is filtering the list
Changing the elements' position to either be ascending or descending (up and down respectively) is sorting

[narrow kettle]

doesnt that filter the list?
fille = list(dict.fromkeys(fille))

[slender thistle]

Ehh

I'm not sure if that'd be efficient compared to list(set(my_list)) but w/e

[modest maple]

nah

his method is quicker

[narrow kettle]

"his", 100% didnt take if f rom the internet

[modest maple]

quicker to override a hash map than a set

[slender thistle]

It's in your code so it's now yours :P

[narrow kettle]

:>

but even if stuff are not efficient in this code its ok

im not at the stage where efficient matters yet, i just need to know why it dosnt work :<

[slender thistle]

elif action == "rev":
  my_list = fille.split("\n")
  for x in my_list:
    x = x[::-1]
  print(my_list)

Ehhhhhhh

[vestal star]

Is there a better database than sequelize + sqlite. I was thinking about mongodb + mongoose and would like to know if mongoose is actually good?

[slender thistle]

Why not just my_list = fille.split("\n")[::-1]?

[modest maple]

Mongo is good for small data sets (< 19MB)

[vestal star]

oof

[narrow kettle]

because of the simple reason, i had no idea i can do it xD

[vestal star]

What should I use

[modest maple]

but most other forms of db is better than sqlite

the statistically best DB is either Datomic or PostgreSQL for large DBs

[vestal star]

Ok

[narrow kettle]

but shiv did you fidn the reason why "sort" does not work?

like, it works but not working as i need it to work

[modest maple]

sort orders by its numerical equivelent

[slender thistle]

I'm not exactly why you need to sort it

[modest maple]

unless u tell it a key / function to use to sort

[narrow kettle]

i dont mean the function sort, i meant the sort in my code

wym shiv?

its part of the question to sort the list

[wet iron]

ppl

how do i send a message to a specific channel name?

[earnest phoenix]

bot.channels.find()

or if ur in v12

[vestal star]

Should I use sequelize or pg for a postgresql wrapper

[narrow kettle]

btw when i use sort there, does it sort by alphabet?

[earnest phoenix]

cache find

for instance

[wet iron]

im in v12

[earnest phoenix]

o

[slender thistle]

>>> text = text.split('\n')
>>> text
['aaa', 'ccc', 'bbb']
>>> text.sort()
>>> text
['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc']
``` @narrow kettle

[earnest phoenix]

then cache find

[narrow kettle]

great

[earnest phoenix]

ill get u a link skilitl

[narrow kettle]

so thats not the reason why it wont work

[wet iron]

you mean bot.cache.find("starboard")

[earnest phoenix]

anyone know if there exist an equivalent to html parsing (whitespace = %20) for directories or paths? sometimes the filename contains or starts with a "/"

[vestal star]

Should I use sequelize or pg for a postgresql wrapper

[earnest phoenix]

https://anidiots.guide/understanding/collections

[finite bough]

can someone tell me how to fix this

[earnest phoenix]

let guild = client.guilds.find(guild => guild.name === "Discord.js Official");

@wet iron

change the name

[narrow kettle]

i can repost the code so i can see it down here right?

[earnest phoenix]

of discord.js official

to the chan name

[wet iron]

ok

thanks

[slender thistle]

@finite bough iirc that's "Out of Resources/Memory"

[earnest phoenix]

if it doesnt work idk how to do it in v12

[finite bough]

._.

[narrow kettle]

shiv please save me :<

[wet iron]

i need to send a message to that channel name

to that channel

[slender thistle]

@narrow kettle Say again, you came in broken and incomprehensible there, over. radio noises

[earnest phoenix]

let guild = client.guilds.find(guild => guild.name === "Discord.js Official").send("stoopid")

[narrow kettle]

lol

[earnest phoenix]

find().send

[finite bough]

@earnest phoenix no spoon feeding

[earnest phoenix]

i gave a link

[slender thistle]

I'd rather we move to DMs at least since this channel is quite occupied rn

[earnest phoenix]

im just explaining it

[narrow kettle]

sure

[earnest phoenix]

stop bein rood and ping me for nu reason shiemi

:(

[finite bough]

sorry

[earnest phoenix]

its ok

[finite bough]

just rules

[earnest phoenix]

but im not breaking them

d:

i gave anidiotsguide's link to collections and it throughly explains hwo to get channels by ID and .find

i'm just explaining how to send it to a channel after that and what .find it

is*

[finite bough]

let him try 1st xd

[earnest phoenix]

hmm ok

nice to know for the future

i just wanna help

d:

[finite bough]

wait for another person to ask smthing

lel

[earnest phoenix]

ok

this is pretty coincidental but

how do i detect a new line

🤡

[wet iron]

@earnest phoenix it doesnt work it says find is not a function

[earnest phoenix]

oh

right

find is not in v12

let me find a replacement rq

[wet iron]

ok

[earnest phoenix]

wait im dumb

its javascript

not d.js

dont talk about it

[finite bough]

._.

[wet iron]

🤦

[earnest phoenix]

.p.

[finite bough]

a

sir

d.js is discord.javascript

[earnest phoenix]

let me see ur code d:

ik but .find is a js func

p.p

and i thought v11-12 had it

[wet iron]

      let starmsg = message;
      let starembed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
      .setAuthor(message.author.tag)
      .setColor("#FFFC00")
      .addField(":star:", starmsg)

      let limit = 4;
      if (reaction.emoji.name == ':star:' && reaction.count >= limit) bot.channels.cache.get("693440007171735643").send(starembed);
    });```

[earnest phoenix]

also .some() returns a bool val if that helps

[wet iron]

i dont need a specific channel id

i want to get the channel name

[earnest phoenix]

where is .find?

[wet iron]

there i used a method for the id

so

lemme try find

[earnest phoenix]

yeah but im trying to get the other code to see where the error is

lul hi snails

help

[copper cradle]

find is a js function

[finite bough]

^

channels is not defined

[wet iron]

doesnt work

[finite bough]

channels is not defined

[earnest phoenix]

let me see the .find code

ree

[finite bough]

wait

[earnest phoenix]

where did the error even go

am i asleep

[finite bough]

show me the error

[wet iron]

i tried to do bot.channels.cache.find("starboard").send(starembed)

but

it didnt show the error

[earnest phoenix]

no...

[wet iron]

just didnt work

[earnest phoenix]

follow the format i told u

[wet iron]

ok

[finite bough]

log the channel name

[earnest phoenix]

it doesnt find by stirng you need to do variablehere => variablehere.name === "starboard"

[finite bough]

using id

[wet iron]

but

[earnest phoenix]

bad shiemi

wewe

[copper cradle]

find takes in a function

[wet iron]

i dont want the bot to be chained to one server

[earnest phoenix]

then it will error because the owner can just del starboard

[finite bough]

bot.reaction.channel

[marble juniper]

if you want to search by name you need to use find
get is for ids

[earnest phoenix]

reaction is defined in the func

[copper cradle]

.find(c => c. name === 'starboard')

[earnest phoenix]

thats what i said zsnails

except im a bit dumber

[copper cradle]

no

[wet iron]

if (reaction.emoji.name == ':star:' && reaction.count >= limit) bot.channels.cache.get("<id>").send(starembed);

i used this

how do i fit something in that

[copper cradle]

you use a db

and store channel ids

[earnest phoenix]

@copper cradle you accidentally added a space between “c. name”

[copper cradle]

then you check for the server id

oh

[earnest phoenix]

.find(c => c. name === 'starboard')
@copper cradle

[copper cradle]

didn't notice it

my phone adds those automatically

but it doen't really matter

[finite bough]

i mean

[wet iron]

ok

[finite bough]

a noob will also understand

[earnest phoenix]

Dumb people will think that’s how the code is meant to be written lol

[finite bough]

no space

[copper cradle]

well, you've got a point there ngl

[earnest phoenix]

firsthand experience-

[wet iron]

just put in bot.channel.cache.find (channel => channel.name === 'starboard')?

[earnest phoenix]

bot.channel?

also

channels*

[wet iron]

my bat

bad*

[earnest phoenix]

"hello colors" //e

[wet iron]

am i right

bot.channels.cache.find (channel => channel.name === 'starboard')

?

[earnest phoenix]

yes

just put in bot.channel.cache.find (channel => channel.name === 'starboard')?
@wet iron
Don’t forget to put .delete() at the end of it

i dont use v12 so maybe not

ze1 toxic

[marble juniper]

bruh

[sudden geyser]

bot.channel is not a thing

[wet iron]

bruh

[earnest phoenix]

they fixed it

at the enddd

[wet iron]

typo

i wanted to put in channels

[earnest phoenix]

:)

[wet iron]

bot.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === 'starboard').send(starembed);

doesnt work

it doesnt want to send

[earnest phoenix]

error?

[finite bough]

bot.reaction.guild.channels

[crimson vapor]

do you use bot or client as your bot's client variable?

[earnest phoenix]

Or even better, bot.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === 'starboard').delete()

[finite bough]

B

R

U

H

[earnest phoenix]

Lmao

toixcity

beaned

Nah but make sure your bot is called “bot”

^

i have a fallback

2 vars named "bot" and "client"

[crimson vapor]

I use client so that wouldnt work for me

[earnest phoenix]

If it’s client then put client

[finite bough]

he said no errors

if he used bot

[wet iron]

no errors

[crimson vapor]

not if bot is defined as client when he starts

[finite bough]

the console would have been flooding with errors

[crimson vapor]

then is would just fail to send probably

[earnest phoenix]

(idk why it isnt working)

[wet iron]

const bot = new Discord.Client();

[earnest phoenix]

maybe ur embed is stoopid

[wet iron]

ffs

[finite bough]

yea

[wet iron]

its not

[finite bough]

that doesnt work million

lel

[crimson vapor]

try sending a "Hello World" message

[earnest phoenix]

@wet iron catch the error

yeah first send a string

no embeds

What’s the error

no errors

TOXIC

[finite bough]

million...

he got a bot dev role...

i think he knows what he is doing

[wet iron]

it worked when i used the specific id

ffs

[crimson vapor]

dont you say that

I have no idea what im doing

[finite bough]

LMFAO

[wet iron]

neither do i

[earnest phoenix]

Waiting on my bot to be approved

[crimson vapor]

im just really good at improvising

[earnest phoenix]

(have you ever thought that they're new to d.js or specifically v12? ok then shushienoob)

[wet iron]

i got a bot dev role because i made a bot in python

i wanna learn to do it in js

[earnest phoenix]

my bot got declined because my files were cached so i used 175/200MB and had to reset my server right as it joiend the verification server 🤭

[crimson vapor]

I got the role because I wrote a few lines of code

[wet iron]

me too

[earnest phoenix]

so now i have 27/250MB

hot

[crimson vapor]

I didnt touch my bot until it was verified

[earnest phoenix]

The hell

[wet iron]

it doesnt work with a string either

[earnest phoenix]

i needed to lol

it was rising in usage everytime i used a cmd
