Scroll up the chat
clear wraith
Does anyone know where i can find an example of a Moderation system? Im struggling on creating one for my bot.
@quartz kindle
If so... That would be helpful
lyric mountain
He's a great djs dev
clear wraith
I hope so 
vague kite
Kinda of a tos question but how often can I just the status and presences of a bot??
queen violet
45 seconds should be fine
lyric mountain
Rule of thumb is 60 seconds delay between each update
vague kite
Yeah that makes sense I was gonna set it to 2 mins anyways just wanted to make sure
Thank you ❤️

hey, I'm looking for someone who can help me configure nginx. I don't know much about how it works and a friend of mine tried but he couldnt get it to work either. and my website keeps returning error 522
earnest phoenix
lyric mountain
Ah, I see
earnest phoenix
It used to work before, but I switched to a new vps and now I cant get it to work anymore... :/
recheck your dns configuration
I have changed the dns ip settings
lyric mountain
Yeah, cloudflare can be a pain sometimes
earnest phoenix
what could it be in cloudflare I need to change still?
lyric mountain
Probably it's some issue regarding nginx not being able to serve tcp requests
Idk how to deal with that, never had that issue
earnest phoenix
Would that be ufw allow 80/tcp?
earnest phoenix
@lyric mountain thanks, but unfortunately it didnt sovle my issue...

sudden geyser
what
snow urchin
code in the first if statement is not running, it should be running though
dense sluice
Help
indigo folio
you kinda have to explain your entire issue to get help
dense sluice
how does the ship command
indigo folio
im gonna cry
indigo folio
it uses an api
clear wraith
why does my bot go offline every time my project is offline?
near ether
the code's process needs to stay running
clear wraith
do i need a host to keep it online?
dense sluice
generates a name based on the two users and places a percentage along with the photo of the two side by side
indigo folio
@snow urchin idk if you've figured it out or not because its been a long time since you posted that but try using a console.log() for each of those comparisons in the if statement and see if either is actually true. chances are, they are both false
@clear wraith are you using glitch
indigo folio
disgusting
clear wraith
lol
near ether
idk about glitch its kinda ass
indigo folio
also you need to use something like uptimerobot
to continuously ping it so it never goes offline
because yes, when the project goes offline, the bot goes offline
clear wraith
glitch is all i have
near ether
if ur serious abt a bot then get a real hosting service
indigo folio
but PLEASE for the love of god if you have like $3 get an actual VPS
clear wraith
do you guys use node app to program your bot?
indigo folio
you mean javascript?
clear wraith
yeah
near ether
yes
indigo folio
yes, i do, but to answer your question, you need to ping your project on glitch to keep it up
if it is not pinged in 10 minutes (iirc) your bot will go down
clear wraith
i use uptime robot, but that doesn't seem to work
robust moth
When I use this command first time it's run perfectly but second time this two line not working...
indigo folio
@clear wraith what URL are you pinging on uptimerobot
should be (glitch project name).glitch.me
clear wraith
umm
I just deleted the monitor, and am going to make a new monitor.
Witch one would i choose to keep the bot online?
indigo folio
HTTP(s) @clear wraith
clear wraith
its on glitch.com
snow urchin
RadioBindings.findOneAndUpdate(query, {guildID: msg.guild.id}, {upsert: true}, function(err, doc) {
i have this for mongoose, and whenever it runs, instead of updating the existing document, it creates a new one, why??
clear wraith
hm
indigo folio
so if ur project is called epic-bot-5000 it should be epic-bot-5000.glitch.me
clear wraith
indigo folio
yes
clear wraith
ok
balmy lantern
Anyone else having a long wait time for verification?
clear wraith
yes
snow urchin
not the place to ask.
clear wraith
what would i do after i create the monitor?
@indigo folio
snow urchin
you close the glitch project, wait 5 minutes and make sure it works
indigo folio
literally nothing
indigo folio
bruh it hasn't pinged yet
snow urchin
wait 5 mins
clear wraith
i set to 10
snow urchin
it needs to be 5
clear wraith
ok
snow urchin
if glitch does not get a ping every 5 minutes, it goes offline
clear wraith
Ok
copper cradle
@robust moth bc you're checking if data.dispatcher doesn't exist, and if it doesn't then inside the if statement you're setting data.dispatcher to be something, so next time you check it'll be something and the code inside the if statement won't work
I meant so not to
robust moth
@copper cradle
copper cradle
oh shit
I didn't see that
however your question was why the codeblock inside the if statement wasn't working when you ran the code twice
robust moth
Yeap
copper cradle
and I answered that question
now, lemme look into this
what does the end function do
besides from ending it
grizzled raven
thats probably it
robust moth
what does the end function do
@copper cradle stop dispatcher..I mean playing stop
copper cradle
playing stop?
robust moth
Yes

any place to ask for feedback if my site is good?
make sure to ping me as im bout to sleep
sacred mountain
Can someone help me with the discord verification stuff
sacred mountain
Ik
It’s just the things I hav to answer
I don’t understand them
HOW HAVE YOU SECURED ACCESS TO YOUR SYSTEMS AND INFRASTRUCTURE?
high bough
I never tried, my bot only has 28 servers
sacred mountain
Oh
restive furnace
then like how you stored your code and things
sacred mountain
Oh
restive furnace
and how you secured them
sacred mountain
So what would I put
I don’t know how I secured them
They are just hosted on GitHub
Then online with Heroku
restive furnace
if you answer like that, then you absolutelly will be declined
high bough
I dont think you are allowed to host it on GitHub
sacred mountain
Rlly?
high bough
Its not secure
sacred mountain
But all the tutorials I have seen make u do it on github
high bough
So you can't say on how you did not secure it
But all the tutorials I have seen make u do it on github
@sacred mountain for testing purposes
sacred mountain
Great so what do I host it on
sacred mountain
What’s a vps
high bough
Virtual Private Server
sacred mountain
Umm
high bough
Google it
sacred mountain
Wait what
high bough
What what?
sacred mountain
high bough
You can host it on github but is likely 90% decline rate
You have to make sure its secure
And github usually isnt
So is glitch
high bough
Free stuff are not that secure
Your token IS a data
And so does databases etc.
Also, my bot is randomly giving stupid errors, such as image url is nit a well built url or whatever. And randomly sends my bot's profpic. Hmmm...
Its frigging annoying
earnest phoenix
If the url was not made correctly by the bot it gives that error... Or you did the code wrong
high bough
Code is proper
mossy vine
You can host it on github but is likely 90% decline rate
@high bough what no github is not a host wtf
high bough
Url is correct
mossy vine
honestly if ur getting errors its your codes fault
high bough
@high bough what no github is not a host wtf
@mossy vine Open source hosting, yes it is
earnest phoenix
@high bough can i see that image CREATE url code?
mossy vine
you are just hosting source code, not the actual bot. glitch hosts both
high bough
honestly if ur getting errors its your codes fault
@mossy vine The error is the url of the inage is not well built or smlt
@high bough can i see that image CREATE url code?
@earnest phoenix Its just my bots profpic url
Here's the url
earnest phoenix
It should be <client>.user.displayAvatarURL({ dynamic: true, size: 1024 or 2048, format: 'png' })
high bough
As you can see in my screenshot earlier, the other xommands works juat fine
earnest phoenix
You can use that... It's better and doesn't give an error
high bough
Why am i getting this error on only half of my commands?!

Crap my PC is not responding niw
mossy vine
ok can u like stop with the misinformation
you do not host a bot on github, only source code
and private repos exist
earnest phoenix
Literally looking at the code and Wondering what in the fuck is even that...
earnest phoenix
I literally didn't understand a single thing on that code lmao
earnest phoenix
Are you doing all that just to show the bot avatar lol?
mossy vine
this is very likely the result of someone not knowing what theyre doing
earnest phoenix
They know what they're doing but their brain just had a stroke
earnest phoenix
@high bough you can do
dynamic: true,
size: 1024,
format: 'png'
})``` instead of that thoUmm thats not what im trying to do
earnest phoenix
?
high bough
What im talking about is the embed is not letting me embed because the var avatarURL apparently is not a well built URL
earnest phoenix
I mean
high bough
If you get what i mean
high bough
Yes
earnest phoenix
Then just remove that url you put in there and replace it with the code i gave you
(Replace the <client> with your client name)
high bough
Hmm, lemme try
fresh hatch
earnest phoenix
Hmm sure
high bough
Its everywhere on google
earnest phoenix
Lol true
@high bough also here is an example:
@fresh hatch just a simple ping command that responds back with pong or the one that also checks for the bot latency and API katency?
high bough
@earnest phoenix I'm still getting this error tho.```js

Hmm can i see your current code?
earnest phoenix
@high bough also you need to put that code i gave you in every Footer of your embeds
high bough
Yes i did as you can see
earnest phoenix
Hmm that's strange...
high bough
I have 5 commands, i changed all of them
earnest phoenix
Do you have an eval command?
high bough
The rest are copy pastes
yes i do
But i can't op myself, so i can't use it
I'm too lazy to change the codes again
spare goblet
your editor is so white
high bough
Yes, it is.
earnest phoenix
(Brighter than the sun itself) @spare goblet
high bough
Do you have an eval command?
@earnest phoenix It's an entire code copy from my first project
earnest phoenix
K lemme test that
high bough
It works well on half of all of my commands
The rest are broken
Idk why
I was just wondering if it was my 10KBps internet
earnest phoenix
@high bough it completely works fine for me tho...
high bough
As i said, it works fine for half of my commands
high bough
You can see that on the top it works well, but then the others )suc etc. Didnt reapond and gives me a console error
Some others just gives the avatar url
--WEIRD--
Aint it
earnest phoenix
Hmm maybe you're putting the url incorrectly on the help command or the ones that doesn't work?
earnest phoenix
Hmm I mean put it in a correct format like between: '' or "" ``
high bough
)support, )invite, works well, but the others screw up.
earnest phoenix
Hmm that's kinda strange
earnest phoenix
Hmm STRANGE AT IT'S FINEST
earnest phoenix
Bruh
sacred mountain
i need help
high bough
CPU usage is only at 6%
sacred mountain
none of my commands work

I mean, duh

Code please?
sacred mountain
me?
earnest phoenix
Yea
sacred mountain
if(!message.content.startsWith(PREFIX)) return;

break;```thats one of the things
but none of them work since adding command instead of using args
earnest phoenix
Any errors on the console.log?
high bough
none of my commands work
@sacred mountain Didn't you have the same issues yesterday?
earnest phoenix
@sacred mountain any errors?
sacred mountain
no
earnest phoenix
Hmm
sacred mountain
Wait no
I fixed a bit
It replies but I can’t do a second args
It’s in switch(command)
earnest phoenix
Also that message.member needs to be changed to message.member.username
high bough
I barely understands the code, hmm..
If he wants to mention, message.member is fine i think
sacred mountain
The problem is that it doesn’t detect a second word
earnest phoenix
I mean... It's showing the whole member info... Not just the username @high bough
sacred mountain
Args[1] doesn’t do anything now
Bc within the function it’s meant to then say what is args[1] but it says undefined
earnest phoenix
Hmm idk but maybe try mine @sacred mountain
(my split and args function and stuff)
high bough
Smh
earnest phoenix
If you use mine then the first args will be => args[0]
high bough
Smh
earnest phoenix
uhh...
high bough
Alright, someone fix my Can't connect to this network error on my PC.
earnest phoenix
Hmm Nice i guess...
earnest phoenix
I LOVE THE SMELL OF MY BURNING PC IN THE MORNING BECAUSE OF ERRORS

i mean, you could simply use a process manager such as PM2 and see logs for all bots in the same session/window

@earnest phoenix I did the stuff in ur code and now I hav the problem I had before
All of my bots are broken
I rlly need help
quartz kindle
show code
earnest phoenix
@high bough use google remote desktop
@sacred mountain maybe because discord.js update to v12 ?
quartz kindle
how u gonna remote desktop a machine with no desktop?

hey guys, is showing discord usernames against tos?
I have a leaderboard in my website, and I have user ids, I am using the API endpoint to get the names of the users and show them in a table based on some ordering

Does anyone know why my bot's shards keep disconnecting after several hours online?
My bot uses 9 shards in a single server
I use digital ocean VPS and the RAM is 8gb
quartz kindle
do they disconnect and not reconnect?
sacred mountain
I’m having trouble with commands
I changed it up but still cant get args[1] to work
I literally give up
I’ve been trying for hours but either it responds to any prefix or it responds to none
quartz kindle
@winter hawk there seems to be other people with similar issues, not sure if its the same as yours https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js/issues/4096
i had similar issues with my bot as well, but im using internal sharding, and i made my own workaround for it (monitor shard activity and force inactive shards to reconnect)
@sacred mountain show code
sacred mountain
One sec
This is some of it:
if(!message.content.startsWith(PREFIX)) return;
let args = message.content.substring(PREFIX.length).split(" ")
let command = args.shift()
switch(command){
case 'help':
message.reply('```The current commands available are: cc!pingme - pings you, cc!ping, replys with pong, cc!info version - replys with the current version, cc!info release - replys with the current Github release, cc!clean <amount> - cleans the specified amount of messages from that channel. If you need any help/you find a bug/you have a suggestion for the bot, please contact me on either Instagram or Discord (IG - @sacred mountainyt, DISC - SaltySpamz#7828)```')
break;
case 'pingme':
message.reply('pong!');
console.log(message.member + ' USED \'cc!pingme\' PROMPT')
break;
case 'ping':
message.channel.send('pong!');
console.log(message.member + ' USED \'cc!ping\' PROMPT')
break;
case 'info':
if(args[1] === 'version'){
message.channel.send(version + '. ```In this 0. version - ' + addition0 + '. In this 1. version - ' + addition1 + '. In this 2. version - ' + addition2 + '```');
console.log(message.member + ' USED \'cc!info version\' PROMPT')}
but basically if i do switch args[0] it replys to any prefix but if i do switch command it replys to none
quartz kindle
@sacred mountain
args = [a,b,c]
command = args.shift()
command is now a
args is now [b,c]
args[1] is c
quartz kindle
its pretty self explanatory
sacred mountain
so
that means
the new args is c!
instead of cc!
and command is c
so then i shouldnt do command
but if i just use args then it will respond to any prefix
quartz kindle
if your command is "!info version"
args is [info,version]
command = args.shift()
command is now info
args is now ["version"]
so there is no args[1]
args[1] is now args[0]
quartz kindle
wdym second word?
sacred mountain
ohhh
wait but then if that does that i can do cc!info version
but i cant do a third word
quartz kindle
you can
quartz kindle
look at what your code does, step by step
message.content .substring(PREFIX.length) <-- remove the prefix .split(" ") <-- split on spaces and create an array of words
sacred mountain
Oh
winter hawk
i had similar issues with my bot as well, but im using internal sharding, and i made my own workaround for it (monitor shard activity and force inactive shards to reconnect)
@quartz kindle thank you
quartz kindle
so if you type cc!info bla bla 1 2 3 4 5 your args will be [info,bla,bla,1,2,3,4,5]
sacred mountain
Ohh
quartz kindle
then when you do args.shift(), the FIRST item of args is REMOVED, and all items are shifted backwards
so info is removed from args
earnest phoenix
So i have a function to see if the user is playing/watching/listening to anything and as it would show it but it only works for the PLAYING type... Is there something wrong here?
sacred mountain
But I would have to do if args is version test then do something I can’t do if args is version then if args is test
quartz kindle
then your args will be [bla,bla,1,2,3,4,5]
then args[0] is bla
args[1] is bla
args[2] is 1
args[3] is 2
args[4] is 3
args[5] is 4
args[6] is 5
earnest phoenix
Lmao
sacred mountain
So I would do if args[0] is info then...
quartz kindle
yes
sacred mountain
Ohhhh
quartz kindle
no
quartz kindle
you put info in your command
you did args.shift()
so you remove the first word from args
sacred mountain
Yh
quartz kindle
and give it to command
sacred mountain
Ohh
sacred mountain
So i would do if command is info then...
sacred mountain
Ohhhh
quartz kindle
and whatever else
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle also any idea about my issue up there?
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix can you even have more than one activity at once?
earnest phoenix
Hmm custom status and game?
quartz kindle
you check for activities[1] which would be a second activity
sounds like your IFs are messed up
earnest phoenix
I'm doing it because if the user doesn't have a custom status... It would be [0] and if user has a custom status it would be [1]
quartz kindle
instead of js if(activities[0].type === 1) {} else if(activities[0].type === 2) {} you're doing ```js
if(activities[0]) {
if(type === 1) {}
} else if(activities[1]) {
if(type === 2) {}
}
you should probably check for all types in activites[0] not immediately give up on it
earnest phoenix
I mean... I'm checking if they have the [0] or [1] activity...
If not just then don't check
@quartz kindle is it possible to check for all types in one go?
quartz kindle
there are many ways to do that
but i still think your IFs are messed up, i cant understand them since broken indentation and small pic
looks like youre checking for activities[0] again from inside activities[1] which will only work if activities[0] doesnt exist in the first place?
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle nevermind i fixed it
I just removed the if statement for check if the activities[0] existed or not because if the <userfunctionname>.presence.activities.length is true there will 100% there be a activities[0] right?
IQ === 9 MILLION
earnest phoenix
Lmao
@quartz kindle but there's also a STREAMING type for activities right?
hi
When is my bot approved?
@earnest phoenix in 2-3 weeks
oh
very long time
let me go and have coffee
K have fun
is link sharing forbidden?
Share my bot top.gg adress
so now it works for PLAYING and WATCHING but it doesn't work for LISTENING... Anything wrong here?
@earnest phoenix link sharing on where?
here
Idk ask that in #memes-and-media
quartz kindle
idk your indentation is still a mess lol
earnest phoenix
Lmao
quartz kindle
you could also simplify it a bit
earnest phoenix
I might try but I'm still confused about why the listening one isn't working
quartz kindle
for example, instead of if(activities[1]) else if(activities[0])
you do if((activities[1] || activities[0]).type === "WHATEVER")
earnest phoenix
en français :

to do on/off things per server you need a database to save server settings
earnest phoenix
like mongoDB?
quartz kindle
yes
earnest phoenix
ok
how do we do ? I'm just 13 years old so I'm not too strong in js I make an anti-raid bot
still merlin
Hey how do you make your bot s game staus
listening for commands
i cant seem to make it say anything but playing in discord js
earnest phoenix
uh
game = playing
stream = STREAMING
watch = WATCHING
listen = LISTENING

nobody can see your bot until its approved anyway, but self-advertising is still not allowed
earnest phoenix
Sorry for the inconvenience
sacred mountain
I have a problem. I made a message delete command but whenever you do it, it is meant to send 1 message saying that it was deleted successfully but for some reason it seems to add it on to like a list each time so whenever u do it, it sends a message for every time you have done it. It’s hard to explain but I think I might be missing a break; thing but I don’t know where. If anyone can help me that would be great
the code for it is ``` case 'clean':
//message.channel.send('Clean feature is currently disabled. Sorry for any inconvenience. The support server is in the website https://salty-coder.weebly.com')
if(!args[0]) return message.reply('Please specify how many messages')
else{
message.reply('Are you sure you want to delete ' + args[0] + ' messages? (Y/N)')
bot.on('message', message=>{
if(message.content === 'Y'){

didnt i tell you to remove this
because it would destroy your bot
thats precisely why

@quartz kindle I can’t just delete that whole section
Then the function will do nothing
quartz kindle
you should delete that whole section, because thats not how you do things
i already told you how to await for messages
sacred mountain
I still don’t understand tho bc that is filter and options but how do u wait for a message
quartz kindle
@sacred mountain you're adding an event inside an event, that will lead to infinite event creation, because events last forever (unless you manually destroy them) and are global, affected by everything
golden condor
Does anyone know anyway to access a local host mongo db on mongo compass on another pc
quartz kindle
so every time you run a command, you will have a new event listener processing ALL bot messages
you run the command 5 times, and you have 5 event listeners processing ALL bot messages
west spoke
They stack up
rustic mica
is there a way to let a bot know if the author of the command is on a certain server?
golden condor
@rustic mica message.guild
west spoke
just use an if statement
rustic mica
thanks
golden condor
if (message.guild.id === "the guild id")
sacred mountain
@quartz kindle then how would I re write it
Bc I don’t understand that thing u sent
quartz kindle
you should use awaitMessages as i said
golden condor
Does anyone know anyway to access a local host mongo db on mongo compass on another pc
I really need this
quartz kindle
what is it about it that you dont understand?
west spoke
@sacred mountain by looking at the docs, and see what Tim just said
sacred mountain
But how do u specify the message you are waiting for
west spoke
store the id
west spoke
what do you think I said
sacred mountain
I hav no idea what a filter is
quartz kindle
you specify what you're waiting for in the filter
golden condor
you do this
quartz kindle
a filter is a function
like this
message => message.content === "Y" || message.content === "N"
golden condor
message.channel.awaitMessages(msg => msg.author.id === message.author.id) for example
west spoke
Cxllm
golden condor
yep
sacred mountain
But that doesn’t specify the message u are waiting for
west spoke
das a spoonfeed
west spoke
because they didn't pay any attention to we say
sacred mountain
But how would I write it tho
west spoke
oh my god

Like what it says in the picture??

ok I'ma slip before i snap and become a demon, and proceed to get muted for a month 
@sacred mountain you check with a second if statement
that's just to make sure "anything after this, yeah process it."
otherwise it skips into your else statement

How can you connect to a localhost mongodb from another pc
quartz kindle
@golden condor using the computer's ip address and port
golden condor
I tried
quartz kindle
and port forwarding in the router

It times out
quartz kindle
you need to unblock it in your router then
quartz kindle
yes
earnest phoenix
Does anybody have any idea about why
<useridentificationname>.presence.activities[0].state if it's a custom status and it only has an emoji... It says null?
quartz kindle
custom status emojis are stored elsewhere i believe

Hmm where is it stored?
quartz kindle
golden condor
probably the first one
quartz kindle
yes

so I need to forward my mongodb port got it

How's it possible to make a function that gives the bot a special role for itself upon joining a guild? (Just like dank memer or
Other popular bots)

you dont need to do that, discord does it automatically if you specify the required permissions in the invite link
earnest phoenix
Hmm oh nice

It does, i believe, otherwise it would give you an undefined error
It seems to be defined

But it's missing methods.
warm marsh
No.

this is the guild member part

so how can i get all members ?
warm marsh
Ah shit, I was looking at the wrong thing lol.
sudden geyser
Once you've got the guild, check the guild members collection.
earnest phoenix
no idea how to
earnest phoenix
oh use fetchMembers?

you don't have to turn it into an array btw

oh and btw
how can i check if a db table includes a user id ?
warm marsh
What are you using to interact with said db?
earnest phoenix
quick.db
earnest phoenix
tried it already, cant find anything
sudden geyser
I'd assume it'd be <db>.has
earnest phoenix
tried that too
warm marsh
How's your database laid out?
earnest phoenix
wdym
warm marsh
How does data get stored in each "table"?
mossy vine
i dont think quick.db does that
warm marsh
quick.db stores in an sqlite3 database.
mossy vine
i mean, quick.db doesnt provide an interface for database planning afaik
earnest phoenix
let level = new db.table("level")
did you mean that?
i have no idea what you talking about
sudden geyser
kind of slow
warm marsh
Then use level.has(id)
earnest phoenix
but how can i use if on it
so if he is in the db it will return
again, it didnt work
Then use level.has(id)
@warm marsh
warm marsh
level.set(id, data)?
warm marsh
Then .has returns true or false.
earnest phoenix
but it says its not a function
if(blockedusers.has(message.author.id)) return message.channel.send(notallowed)```the db table name is blockedusers btw

You're using an older version of quick.db?

if i update will i need to change my whole code ?

Probably not.

should i then ?
warm marsh
Yes.

You'll still need to run npm

Hey, I'm trying to create the same mention thing as from last post.
I used the commands.when_mentioned_or() wich works.
I took a look at the array that it posted and used exactly the same for other code.
But it doesn't work...
My code:
main = 699693525104590889
prefixes = [f'<@!{main}>', f'<@!{main}> ', f'<@{main}>', f'<@{main}>']
def get_bot_prefix(bot, message):
prefix = "!" # Actually fetches it from a db as a string 2.
# but to prevent confusion lets place it here as a string.
return [prefix, *prefixes]
And called it using: command_prefix=get_bot_prefix
(Lib is discord.py)
Yet it doesn't function:
earnest phoenix
if(command === "blockuser") {
let userid = args[0]
blockedusers.add(userid)
}```i tried that
but same error
warm marsh
add(key, value)
earnest phoenix
what should i use as a key ?
warm marsh
id
split hazel
so you can run something like if (blocked)
ruby talon
slender thistle
quartz kindle
check if the message is received as @late thunderhelp or @shrewd breach help
not sure if discord automatically puts a space after a mention

You could use when_mentioned_or

copper cradle
that's not the prblem there
earnest phoenix
wait so what is the problem ?
copper cradle
if it didn't exist the error would be a reference error
warm marsh
Ah it's not documented in their "docs"
quartz kindle
their docs have always been bad
earnest phoenix
so why do i get an error
when i use get i dont get error
their docs have always been bad
right tho
warm marsh
Did they always have docs?
As when I last used quick.db I had to use the console to figure everything out.
earnest phoenix
they did have, but not helpful
so why do i get an error
when i use get i dont get error
what is the problem with the code then ?
split hazel
also you don't need await since it uses better-sqlite3 and is sync
quartz kindle
sounds like the database structure is invalid, try deleting that value and setting it again
earnest phoenix
the warns ?
quartz kindle
yes
quartz kindle
yes
earnest phoenix
i deleted it from the message.guild.id and now its all working
why did it not work tho ?
quartz kindle
the data in it got corrupted somehow
earnest phoenix
well
quartz kindle
quick.db works by storing json objects in sqlite, whenever you set something, it checks if the existing value is a json object (as all values should be)
for some reason your's wasnt
hence why the error
earnest phoenix
i probably did somthing wrong without noticing
well, thanks Tim!
atleast its working
vagrant root
is that work if no can some1 give me example to do it
$.ajax({
method: 'POST',
url: `https://top.gg/api/bots/${client.user.id}/stats`,
data: {
server_count: client.guilds.cache.size
},
headers: {
authorization: 'toe_ken'

note i want to display my bot servers count in a webpage

you probably need to add to headers: content-type: "application/json"

Threading and Such is something I've never really touched, and JS even less so I need help with an A-Sync function. Basically it uses axios to grab a Dad-Joke from a website, but I have to call the pull request before the command is called, which causes issues in that you can't specify joke types, and it looks un-neat. Is there a way to call the a-sync function, and then wait until it is finished to send the joke.
something like:
message.channel.send(":load_emoji:")
joke = fetchJoke(joke_type);
message.edit(`${joke[0]} ||${joke[1]}||`);
static sable
in an async function you can await async function calls
fallow quiver
Does It Go In the function or the function call?
static sable
async function doIt(){
message.channel.send(":load_emoji:")
await joke = fetchJoke(joke_type);
message.edit(`${joke[0]} ||${joke[1]}||`);
}
Ok
static sable
have fun!
fallow quiver
thanks
heavy anchor
One more dumb question how do you have the Bot mention a user/role without pinging them?
fallow quiver
message.author.username will get the name
instead of a mention
Most things that you can "mention" in discord contain a name object
message.channel => message.channel.name
Is that what you were asking?
static sable
which library do you use?
heavy anchor
discord.js
fallow quiver
🤦♂️ I don't know why I assumed discord.js
heavy anchor
lol
fallow quiver
Even though this is a console.log() this will get their name without pinging them. If you want to mention them without ping I'm not sure that is a thing
.then(msg => console.log(`caught ${badWords[i]} fromJ ${message.author.username}, ${message.author.id}`))
Embed
@heavy anchor You mean like thi-- ^^
You can mention ppl in an embed without them getting a pong
heavy anchor
I'm trying to find an example I've seen a bot that does it
fallow quiver
I did not know that
earnest phoenix
Even mentioning roles or even @everyone in an embed doesnt ping
heavy anchor
ok yes it was in an embed
fallow quiver
Does \@ mention work like it used too?
earnest phoenix
yep

go on
fallow quiver
I have a "serverConfig.json" file which will contain the settings for each server
earnest phoenix
(3gb file incoming) go on
fallow quiver
But if I say something like:
client.config[message.guild.id] = {
"prefix": n_prefix
}
fs.writeFile("./serverConfig.json", JSON.stringify(client.config, null, 4), err => {
if(err) {
console.log(`Prefix update failed`);
message.channel.send("Error, couldn't set prefix")
throw err;
}else {
console.log(`Updated Prefix for ${message.guild.name}, ${message.guild.id} from ${prefix} => ${n_prefix}`)
message.channel.send(`Successfully updated prefix for this server to ${n_prefix}`)
}
});
It deletes everything else in that servers config
pale vessel
why are you using json to begin with
fallow quiver
I'm not very familiar with Databases. Is it easy to learn
mossy vine
yes
earnest phoenix
i just took a look at the pokecord site
i mean they have a better site ofc because they can use js
but still
damn
mossy vine
im pretty sure its all css
earnest phoenix
yep
they have to detect how far you've scrolled to show the images at the right time
unique nimbus
@mossy vine CSS does have animations
However for it go down when you scroll down that is most likely JS
mossy vine
@unique nimbus im 90% sure that is possible with html and css but looking at source it includes js
pale vessel
that's not possible without js
earnest phoenix
question how do i make it where the user and bot have to be in the same channel is it
if(!message.client.voice.channel === message.member.voice.channel) is that how its supposed to be

channel.id works just fine
also, it's message.guild.me
that's the bot in the message guild

ahhhh kk thx
const Discord = require('discord.js');

oh well ill put my question after it i guess im not used to discord pc
im getting an error saying something is wrong with that line whenever i try to open index.js. The error looks like this: Line: 1 Char: 1 Error: Syntax error code: 800A03EA Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error
mossy vine
dont run the file by double clicking
earnest phoenix
still happens when i right click and press open if that answer was directed at me. Sorry if you were answering someone else
mossy vine
i was answering you yes
that is not how you should run it
open cmd or powershell, cd into your bots directory, and run the file with node
pale vessel
smh
earnest phoenix
what i find strange about it is that whenever i open visual code studio it opens automatically and thats fine. That error only comes up for my index.js but not package-json etc. And whenever i type "node ." into my terminal it just doesnt respond. No error or message saying my bot is online
mossy vine
do you have a main file specified in your package.json
earnest phoenix
yes i think i do. I wrote the package-json using CMD
so when i opened it in Visual Code studio all the code for that file was already written
mossy vine
also yes of course it only comes up on index.js and not package.json 
json is not something you run
can you show the file
(plus you can always just use node index.js)
earnest phoenix
how much of it? because its about 120 lines
mossy vine
the package.json is 120 lines?
earnest phoenix
ill show the first 20 or so with the token crossed out with X's
no no

pale vessel
you need some serious programming course
mossy vine
this
quartz kindle
json is a configuration file that contains basic information about your project. you can open it in any text editor or by double clicking to see its contents
js is the actual code file, you can open it as text to view the code, to but actually execute the code you have to run in with node. microsoft jscript has nothing to do with javascript, its just the default program that windows tries to open js files with, because js files are also used in JScript which is a .net related language, not the javascript that node works with
mossy vine
because js files are also used in JScript which is a .net related language
TIL
earnest phoenix
Should i try to salvage my bot or just start over? Because the error says its the first character of my first line of the index file. But then if i start over, it might happen again since im new to discord.js
earnest phoenix
oh you mean "npm run index.js"? I've tried that and it comes up with an error
earnest phoenix
ill try that one but it might not work
mossy vine
npm run is a different thing, you can specify different scripts in your package.json to run and run them wiht npm run
earnest phoenix
PS C:\Users\Laptop\Desktop\discord bot> node index.js
it came up with nothing after it
no error or "The bot is online" message

the real question

when you do node index.js, does it return to C:\Users\Laptop\Desktop\discord bot> or does it show an empty line?

yes otherwise that wouldnt be an issue
earnest phoenix
it just doesn't respond

so an empty line?

and when you press ctrl+C then it returns to C:\Users\Laptop\Desktop\discord bot> ?

you can promisify it but there is a 90% chance you can do it in another way

@quartz kindle i think the problem is the code. I think somewhere in my code is just crashing the bot

@earnest phoenix its not crashing, if it was crashing, it would show in the powershell

then what do you want to do lmao

if its not outputting anything, it means its working correctly, you just didnt code anything in it to output anything

@quartz kindle maybe its the code for the message saying "the bot is online" thats not working??? Ill go check if my bot is online

cant help if you dont show your code

its not online. Sorry if this clutters the chat, ill just paste the code in without my token
