Question, how can I have the bot see what type of status i have? ex: online, idle, dnd
(if you can answer, please ping me)
lapis ocean
I need something that allows me to give a role to a user that has successfully filled out a form on my website. What is the easiest way to achieve this? I have thought of having a field that requests the user for their Discord ID. I would then send the the field containing their ID as a webhook to Discord and then I would have to somehow create a bot that would read this ID and assign a role to the user. But Discord doesn't make it easy to share IDs, especially on Mobile, it's actually simple on Discord even if a bit hidden. So what other ways would you recommend to achieve this?

Any other smart ways to achieve this?
earnest phoenix
other than them inputting the id (which you can't really verify if it's actually their id), nope
amber fractal
Oauth would be the only way to truly verify it
turbid bough
or you can create a form like what discord bug testing uses, and have the bot accept that command

Alright folks, I got it working, but I have serious concerns about safety. My goal is to send an embed with player information to a different shard. I have a snippet that works as intended, but unfortunately that means I'd be sending user input through broadcastEval. There has to be a better way of doing this. Any advice?
let e = `
this.supportServer.postCompilation("${code.replace('\"', '\\\"')}",
"${lang}",
"${json.url}",
"${msg.message.author.tag}",
"${msg.message.author.id}",
"${msg.message.guild.name}",
"${msg.message.guild.id}",
${json.status == 0},
"${json.compiler_message}");`
This call builds the embed that I need; and I need this to be called by all shards, but I can't think of a safe way to do it.
midnight blaze
@tight forum what you dont understand? it looks rly simple
lapis ocean
@earnest phoenix @amber fractal I didn't say I want to verify it.
late plank
I guess I could replace \" with \\\"?
lapis ocean
There's no reason I would need to verify.
tight forum
i know pangloss but I have been working for 15 hours
amber fractal
if you had an internal api running on all shards, you could send commands to it and tell it what shard to run it on I suppose
tight forum
cant feel my brain anymore
midnight blaze
n%2 == 0,
means only even numbers are going to be returned
amber fractal
I wouldnt do any eval with user input
earnest phoenix
someone can input another user's id, don't you think thats a bit of a safety concern? @lapis ocean
midnight blaze
@tight forum yeah, np, just let me know if u need an explanation
late plank
@amber fractal what exactly do you mean by internal api
lapis ocean
@earnest phoenix not at all, I want to give them a role, the form already is secure enough.
tight forum
tyvm mate
turbid bough
234703377999593472 hereby apply for moderator
amber fractal
an actual server running across all shards, like an api just for each individual shard
lapis ocean
My only problem is associating the 1. Person who Fills out the Form WITH 2. Person who has joined my server.
amber fractal
you could also specify port ranges if you want to do that so you wouldnt even need to provide that shard you want to run it on and instaed send it to the specific port
lapis ocean
I wanted a better flow, because it's complicated to ask for people's Discord ID, especially when the vast majority are joining for the first time.
earnest phoenix
oauth is the only way to know it's actually them
amber fractal
But that's just what I think of first probably not even the best way 
late plank
so basically an mini rest api for that call
earnest phoenix
otherwise i can go ahead and pretend i am thaun for example
lapis ocean
@earnest phoenix so what? If you pretend you are thaun, thaun gets the Role and you don't.
The Role is to give access to the server basically.
amber fractal
and you have someone that didnt apply for whatever having a role
what if it's malicious
lapis ocean
I can't imagine of a possible attack vector like that.
At least not that I would worry about.
turbid bough
i would report your bot as buggy if your bot gave me roles for no reason
lapis ocean
As long as the form is secure it's alright.
turbid bough
the form is not secure when they can manipulate the data
lapis ocean
@turbid bough but imagine this is a form that charges $1,000,000 ?
Imagine it's a paid community.
turbid bough
uh?
lapis ocean
Unless you hack the form there's nothing to worry at that stage.
lapis ocean
No, but people will have a code.
turbid bough
code?
turbid bough
an only otp code which only that one user can use to confirm their identity they own the discord account?
late plank
@amber fractal do you happen to know of a way to send messages directly to a guild, skipping discord.js caches?
I know it was possible in v11
lapis ocean
@turbid bough yes, except that the code is not tied to a user. It's single or limited use in some fashion
late plank
The've changed lots of their internals since then, so old methods don't work
late plank
because if I could hit the endpoint directly I could just serialize the embed
amber fractal
You could make the api call yourself, which isnt as difficult as you might think. But I would think all guilds are cached anyways
lapis ocean
I like the Oauth idea, just can't apply it. I have webhooks though
turbid bough
im not sure how oauth and webhooks connect together
late plank
Yeah they're certainly all cached, but not on the shard I need it to be cached on 😄
amber fractal
oh
late plank
I think hitting the endpoint myself is the best solution here
lapis ocean
Me neither, not the point. The system I have can pass the data via webhooks to Discord, that's my point. But I don't think I can use Oauth.
modest maple
if you dont want to touch d.js just use a webhook
lapis ocean
I also thought of passing the Discord ID as a URL Query parameter, but how would I do that?
The form could catch the parameter.
But no idea how to pass the Discord ID as a URL parameter or if there's even a way to achieve that.
turbid bough
what language do you use?
and what api for the website
or whatever idk what i should call it
lapis ocean
I am not even a developer.
Else I would code an oauth solution
I am just looking at my options and then see what I have to learn.
turbid bough
im confused, you dont have a bot?
lapis ocean
This conversation assume I could build the bot, because I will learn.
But I don't want to learn and then discover I can't do anything .
I still want to learn of course, but wouldn't prioritize it.
I am thinking high level here, to see which technologies I have to learn and what I have to connect with what to make this work.
turbid bough
you can practically use anything.
lapis ocean
I know, I am trying to see what would fit what I have now. Because of course, one could always build anything from scratch.
turbid bough
its not important to learn everything, but once you got the basics of programming, you can pretty much use everything
lapis ocean
Yes, but it's not practical at all to try to do everything.
Learn everything + do everything.
I found this: https://pathfix.com/
turbid bough
well, if you want to know how to make a secure and a good program, that would require learning many things
lapis ocean
I wonder if this could help me create an oauth solution that can extract the Discord ID
lapis ocean
But I need some special servers or something no @turbid bough ?
Some SSL Wizardry or whatever, lol sorry for the ignorance
turbid bough
if you need to host your own website/bot, then yes, you would need your own server, or buy one.
lapis ocean
Not ssl, Oauth
main laurel
Sorry for that
turbid bough
well, you just need to do a https request with the specified information
basically
you have an url to discord oauth, it includes a redirect back your website
discord oauth url is where you would login with discord
then once you logged in, the site will visit that page with a query code, which you can do to get access to a key
lapis ocean
You make it sound very easy
turbid bough
it is
lapis ocean
I actually have a bot on my Discord that does some OAuth magic like that.
Not coded by me of course.
turbid bough
you just send some data to discord, and then you get data back
vague kite
const connection = await message.member.voice.channel.join();
const dispatcher = connection.play('./../../assets/random.mp3');
dispatcher.on('finish', () => {
console.log('Finished playing!');
});
So I'm just trying to play some random audio file from my assets folder right but when the bot connects it doesn't really play and just consoles finished playing.
I have installed:
Node-opus
ffmpeg-static
ffmpeg
@ me if you can help ❤️
lapis ocean
I need some code running on a server I guess.
turbid bough
yeah
lapis ocean
Could I do that with a webhost? That has PHP or something?
turbid bough
PHP or nodejs
lapis ocean
I guess I could grab some php script that does that maybe no?
turbid bough
there is documentations on discord that tells you what data you can send to get access token, and with that token you can use that to get user info.
lapis ocean
So the way I see that it could work is, the script would pass an oauth request to Discord, the user would authenticate, and then it could extract their Discord ID, and then it would redirect the user to a URL with the DiscordID in the URL QueryStrings and then my form would catch that
pale vessel
uhh maybe not in the url
lapis ocean
And then the form would send the ID as a webhook to Discord, a bot would read it and assign the role to the user
turbid bough
the oauth is sent from discord. not to.
lapis ocean
Why not in the URL? This way it would work with my current system
turbid bough
in your website, you link your login button to this link for example https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=157730590492196864&scope=identify%20guilds.join&state=15773059ghq9183habn&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fnicememe.website&prompt=consent
and with that, once logged in it will send a query data to the website you are using.
lapis ocean
So Discord sends data to that link right?
turbid bough
discord sends data to this link for example: https://nicememe.website/?code=NhhvTDYsFcdgNLnnLijcl7Ku7bEEeee&state=15773059ghq9183habn
and then you use your webserver to parse that code to get an access token
lapis ocean
Basically I need a server to catch that data right?
turbid bough
yes
lapis ocean
Looks like a webhook
turbid bough
well yes it kinda works like that
but you cant use that data for anything, so you would have to add login
you can read more about it here: https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/oauth2
lapis ocean
What do you mean "add login"?
turbid bough
logic*
lapis ocean
Ah, yes of course
I guess it would be quite simple
Catch the Discord ID and redirect to a URL with that ID as a query string
turbid bough
you dont need to redirect with a discord id with a query
you can just use a session for that if the form is on the same website as where you set your oauth
lapis ocean
I use a service to create forms. I'm not sure I can do that or why I would do it that way.
They have this feature at least.
turbid bough
Im not sure what service you use, but if that service allows users to login with oauth and validating the form's request, then it should be fine?
earnest phoenix
anyone used mysql.escape()? for some reason im getting errors using this
connection.query("INSERT INTO reminders (user_tag, msg, date, epoch, user_id, channel_id) VALUES('"+reminder.user_tag+"', '"+connection.escape(reminder.msg)+"', '"+reminder.date+"', '"+reminder.epoch+"', '"+reminder.user_id+"', '"+reminder.channel_id+"')", function (err, result, fields) {
if (err) throw err;
});
specifically around connection.escape(reminder.msg)
Error: ER_PARSE_ERROR: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'test @night raptor'',
@turbid bough I think it doesn't. That's why I am trying to work it out this way. Should work just fine with a Query String no?
turbid bough
discord oauth does not work with query strings except from the authorization code
if you want to validate who want to send that form for example, you would need server code to compare to send that.
but im not sure
late plank
What goes into the auth header for the discord api?
lapis ocean
@turbid bough What I was thinking was that the script on the server would redirect the user to a url with Query Strings
late plank
[Symbol(Response internals)]: {
url: 'https://discordapp.com/api/v6/channels/568172962855911435/messages',
status: 401,
statusText: 'Unauthorized',
headers: Headers { [Symbol(map)]: [Object: null prototype] },
counter: 0
}
that wouldnt work if you are using oauth
it basically makes oauth useless
other than obtaining data
the form itself on the server would need to use the oauth

pale vessel

turbid bough
cause Date, isnt that a struct?
twin marsh
It's in v11
turbid bough
v11 js?
amber fractal
The Date class is built into js
pale vessel
what
amber fractal
has nothing to do with d.js
lapis ocean
@turbid bough why useless? I don't understand why it wouldn't work.
Why would the form need to use the Oauth?
turbid bough
If you are hooking up a website form upto a discord bot that is going to do changes to a user, the form would need oauth for security etc.
its not that its required to
but its very reccomended
@pale vessel https://img.thaun.dev/f2bh0.png
pale vessel
yeah
turbid bough
pale vessel
is utc even important
twin marsh
no
pale vessel
on year
pale vessel
i mean if it's 31 dec
lapis ocean
@turbid bough I'm just worried if it would work or not. I'm not so worried about hacking. If someone hacks it will be very obvious and the consequences wouldn't be nefarious.
turbid bough
The value returned by getYear is the current year minus 1900. JavaScript 1.2 and earlier versions return either a 2-digit or 4-digit year. For example, if the year is 2026, the value returned is 2026. So before testing this function, you need to be sure of the javascript version you are using.
idk, it would probably work
just add 1900 and you got the year
pale vessel
you can also save the time by adding "Full"

Another solution would be to give them a code generated by the system, that is shown to them upon form submissions and/or email. And then they would input that code in the server.

actual v13 is gonna be ts rewrite tho and it's barely been started
@smoky spire can I get a source please
earnest phoenix
Yes they did
white anvil
djs is a trainwreck
delicate zephyr
is like trying to fit a elephant on a hamster
earnest phoenix
My fork is pre .cache managers with futur3 commits
white anvil
it should be way more modular than it is and the caching is garbage
no control
all or nothing
earnest phoenix
And the worst cache is the presence cache
delicate zephyr
The day we can disable caching
white anvil
presence cache is so niche
delicate zephyr
the better
earnest phoenix
3GB memory/3 day uptime
280MB memory/3day uptime PRESENCE_UPDATE disabled
white anvil
even eris doesn’t have good caching control
white anvil
there is no mainstream js lib with even mediocre caching
delicate zephyr
Mainstream no
white anvil
@earnest phoenix not surprising
delicate zephyr
but tbf, Tim made a decent for of discord.js
earnest phoenix
Not just that, its per MEMBER
AND USER...
delicate zephyr
earnest phoenix
One member in 8 guilds = 9 presences of the same person with different ids in guild
Its awful
Like fr why
delicate zephyr
tbh
the only thing you should be caching
is the custom statuses / game statuses
turbid bough
can anyone save me from this hell dependency injection
delicate zephyr
otherwise just store the online/dnd/away/offline in a cache with only ids
white anvil
presence update alone was making me go over the bandwidth limit on my vps
earnest phoenix
I wanted to cache the statuses, not everything everywhere
So i got rid of all of them instead
white anvil
i would cache absolutely nothing but I need message cache for edit handling to work
delicate zephyr
check out contabo
white anvil
/mo
white anvil
contabo is good but they rejected my details and asked for my id
earnest phoenix
Nono contabo bad tho
white anvil
so I can’t use them 😂
delicate zephyr
its good for starter jens
earnest phoenix
Try galaxygate, no bandwidth limits but theyre sorta half out of stock rn
delicate zephyr
@white anvil if not check out https://oneprovider.com they do Really cheap dedis
white anvil
trainwreck of a provider
topaz fjord
but you can request
earnest phoenix
Its where rythm is hosted at though
topaz fjord
and they'll do it
earnest phoenix
white anvil
so??
topaz fjord
wym galaxygate is good lmao
delicate zephyr
lets not have a host war
earnest phoenix
Bruh..
topaz fjord
someone send me money for the ryzen vps
pale vessel
right after luke said that lmao
earnest phoenix
Its uptime is better than discord's LMAO
delicate zephyr
Stop. Final warning.
white anvil
ok epic
earnest phoenix
No ur supposed tosay ok luke
white anvil
either way I only have 200gb bandwidth limit on my vps
which is fine by me
im so conservative of what I send and receive with my bot that I only use like 1/10 of that a month
white anvil
I only have messages intent
white anvil
it’s not rlly unlim
delicate zephyr
it is lol
white anvil
they will eventually throttle u
delicate zephyr
They dont 
white anvil
all hosts do
delicate zephyr
oneprovider hasnt since i started using them
we've had 1000/1000 the entire time
white anvil
if u push it too much they will
delicate zephyr
well yea
delicate zephyr
if you start using 1000/1000 for a month straight
white anvil
granted I don’t need a dedi
delicate zephyr
On provider dedis are fairly cheap for the low end ones
white anvil
I have a 2-core intel xeon and I use about 10% of that on average
delicate zephyr
and youre paying 2 quid?
delicate zephyr
how much ram
delicate zephyr
storage?
delicate zephyr
earnest phoenix
o
white anvil
you can’t have a dedicated machine at that price that is cost effective and also performant
delicate zephyr
we use this one https://img.ichigo.uk/n3bTvCTF3zxV.png
white anvil
that’s probably okay
delicate zephyr
Its been doing great
white anvil
hetzner sell $30 dedis with 2gb ram btw
delicate zephyr
why
white anvil
- hexa core ryzen
white anvil
windows...server?
white anvil
oh
delicate zephyr
that vswitch
turbid bough
why does JS use string for ID's but Discord.Net use ulong's??
delicate zephyr
yea
white anvil
all I do on my pc is write shit c and watch YouTube
white anvil
won’t even be able to take it to uni when I go this year
too bulky
need laptop
it’ll just sit in an attic losing value daily until I graduate in 4 years and it’s worth $20
:D
delicate zephyr
lul
white anvil
crazy usage
Pretty much guarantee that if most of the traffic on your dedi comes from discord bot, 1.9TB of it is presences
white anvil
do u not track presences
delicate zephyr
I do
wooden lance
does anyone know how to limit how much discord.js can cache? it tends to overload my vps if it doesnt get restarted for a few days
delicate zephyr
I just use the raw data
white anvil
wdym
delicate zephyr
setup my own caching
white anvil
why lmfao
wooden lance
o tru thanks
white anvil
ah
earnest phoenix
Or just make your own lib
white anvil
why
white anvil
pointless
waste of time
it’s such a challenge to make a good library from scratch that is really not worth it if what you want can be achieved with existing libraries
earnest phoenix
Well atleast there wont be shit to complain at, because it'd be your own shit then
white anvil
and in 99.99% of cases it can
delicate zephyr
I mean. yea, but like you learn a lot
white anvil
or if you want custom shit use a gateway and rest handler and build from them
delicate zephyr
which is why I tried origionally
white anvil
I learned a lot from reading the source for https://github.com/detritusjs/client-socket ngl
interesting stuff
next remnant
How do I automate testing of my bot?
white anvil
seeing how zlib is implemented
next remnant
Like with unit/e2e tests
My bot is in discord.py
(if anyone has experience with it in some other language/library, I'd love to hear it)
topaz fjord
you replicate discord's api

Hello, I'm trying to make it so that when my bot replies to a message, it also attaches a gif. I have the link for the gif, but the only way that I know of making the bot show the gif is by sending the link. I don't want the link to be visible
So, basically, how do I make a bot post a gif without posting a link
Here is the line that I currently have the bot using :
message.channel.send('https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/708845028713300111/708871257847758869/8e96ceec5152605463bf264b1ad18bda.gif')
I'm using Visual Studio Code with Discord.js
Here is the rest of the command if you need more context:
case 'hello' :
message.channel.send('Thank you for greeting me. Hello to you, too! 😄')
message.channel.send('https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/708845028713300111/708871257847758869/8e96ceec5152605463bf264b1ad18bda.gif')
break;
If you have any ideas, please @ me
stray wasp
@reef heath
Look at the examples shown. You can attach local files or even urls (Which is the better method to save bandwidth)
reef heath
urls is the better method?
stray wasp
https://discord.js.org/ is discordjs's documents I recommend you have a look through it if you ever are looking for a feature you require in your bot.
sending a file via a url yes
lofty grove
Hello.
stray wasp
because you arn't uploading the file everytime someone sends a command that the bot responds to.
reef heath
right.
stray wasp
since it's already uploaded.
lofty grove
how can i stop this?
there were commands, I forgot
it shows like that constantly
stray wasp
it's telling you it's starting the app, and is saying they turn off projects that are inactive to keep glitch running fast.
basically so that you can't run a bot or something off their servers
lofty grove
lofty grove
Do you have this command that should be like this?
lofty grove
This is a command to be thrown to bot.js, but I don't have this command, can you help?
stray wasp
I'm still confused on what your talking about.
stray wasp
Oh the glitch app isn't starting?
that's a glitch problem probably. Run the code locally, makes it a lot easier for developing anyway
lofty grove
The boat is running now, but the logs are not in place, they keep turning.
stray wasp
honestly I wouldn't really bother with Glitch, I recommend moving to a local environment
lofty grove
let app = require("express")();
app.listen(8080)

hey, my code has 1 error and it's bugging me. i'm not sure if it's doing any damage, though, but i don't know how to fix it, either.

The switch isn't inside the event

if(!text) {
message.reply("tell me something to say!")

message.delete();
message.channel.send(text);

copper cradle
their
grizzled raven
client.on("messageUpdate", require("./message.js").run) or whatever
astral yoke
couldnt i do if(messageUpdate) ?
grizzled raven
no
grizzled raven
yeah ik im just lazy
midnight blaze
why do u put async if u dont use await :/
grizzled raven
no because old message is the first param
grizzled raven
eh

if(!text) {
message.reply("tell me something to say!")
};
message.delete();
message.channel.send(text);
}
}``` how would I make it so that if someone edits there message then the bot would edit the message with there updated message on the bot
@astral yoke
First of all: the function u included has nothing to do with editing messages. Secondly, a bot can not edit the messages of other users. Nobody can.
astral yoke
No no, not edit there message, when you do db!say hi then edit it to like db!say hello it would also edit his message to catch up with the edited one
do you know what i mean
grizzled raven
they mean that if you edit a message the message event will fire
astral yoke
sorry bout that
copper cradle
you mean their message
there a place - the apple is right there
their possessive noun - that's their car
they're literally means they are
steel drum
im debating on wether i should use mariadb or postgresql (i think thts wht its called) for my bot

@steel drum depends on what ya doing
steel drum
on one hand im pretty sure postgresql provides better preformance but mariadb provides bult-in clusterization management stuff
i dont know if i want to look THAT FAR in advance to worry abt bot clusters
earnest phoenix
I use a mLab mongoDB for prefix storing
steel drum
im more interested in storing
alot of data
like each user can get "cards"
and have it all in some sort of table

how big is your bot?

Create a variable sum with value 0
on each iteration, add memberCount to it

@summer torrent thanks, it's finally working
earnest phoenix
how big is your bot?
@wanton nova 163k members
But only shown 70k
Create a variable
sumwith value 0
on each iteration, add memberCount to it
@slender thistle
bot.guilds.forEach(g => {
var sum = 0
const total = sum + g.memberCount
console.log(total)
});
Something like that should be work?
slender thistle
well
sum = 0
first iteration: sum = 5 (membercount = 5)
second iteration: sum = 10 (membercount = 10)
You're resetting the sum variable every time an iteration happens
small prairie
lmao
@earnest phoenix var before the foreach
also it might spam your console depending on the number of guilds
earnest phoenix
yeah but i just want only one number
bot.guilds.forEach(g => {
const total = sum += g.memberCount
console.log(total)
});```

The code you sent is good

But I dont think I get the correct uptime
Cause like a few minutes ago my shard disconnected and resumed
But still shows the same uptime
smoky spire
Because the uptime is on the client and not the shard
smoky spire
Idk
heavy marsh
hmm
delicate zephyr
I mean
@heavy marsh using discord.js?
Internal sharing I presume
If so you can use process.uptime since each shard is its own process

so bot.process.uptime
