#

There are nuances in updates but that is coding

#

if the engine updates you move with it

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:46 PM

#

no why cant i use windows xp

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:47 PM

#

So, Tim, only iconURL should work ?

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 1:47 PM

#

it would be a fun experiment to boot up windows 95 and see what you can do

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:47 PM

#

@earnest phoenix the iconURL property of guild should work

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 1:48 PM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

that's from v11

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:48 PM

#

@quartz kindle it don't work

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 1:48 PM

#

as long as your guild object is real

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:48 PM

#

guild is not defined

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:48 PM

#

its a nullable field, that means it can be empty if your guild doesnt have an icon

#

of course guild is not defined, you have to get it from somewhere

#

i didnt tell you to remove what you had, i just said it should work

#

what you had was correct all along

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 1:49 PM

#

@earnest phoenix go backwards in your object chain and make sure the root is defined

#

make sure the variable is the object you believe it to be, etc.

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:51 PM

#

when i said iconURL should work, i mean that the iconURL property of the guild object (that you are getting from member.guild) should work

#

everything is context and everything has to come from somewhere

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:51 PM

#

member.guild.iconURL is not a function

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 1:51 PM

#

Tim, we have a problem. Now if you close the page and then go back it forgets your socket ID

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

its not a function in v11

wet iron May 11, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

I just realized something

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

Sabin what is member from your console log?

wet iron May 11, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

Nobody gave us the source code for how our bodies work so we've basically spent centuries reverse engineering ourselves

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

member.guild.roles.find isn't a function anymore, does anything else work?

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

elon, if you are on v12 you should use guild.roles.cache.find

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

ok

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

object.a // this is a property. do it like this in v11
object.a() // this is a function. do it like this in v12

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

Loaf, wdym ? I don't understand english very good 😅

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

@earnest phoenix

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

?

#

ooooooooooooooooooooooh

#

it don't work because i have iconURL() ?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

yes

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

@earnest phoenix if member.guild object is undefined, what is member object?

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

@quartz kindle you are the best man

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

its not undefined

#

@cinder patio sessionStorage doesnt survive closing the page and returning

#

only reloading

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 1:55 PM

#

yeah welp it's not that big of a deal

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:55 PM

#

if you have 2 tabs open, and you close them both, then reopen one of them, which tab should it reconnect to?

#

its better to simply create a new connection i guess

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

I solved all the errors but the bot still don't send any message

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

yeah but if the game has started then they won't be able to play

amber fractal May 11, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

you can use localStorage though, no?

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

it's alright though that's good enough I doubt someone would close the page

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

then you will need something persistent, but then it wont work with multi-tabbing

#

unless you do something like show a list of active sessions on this browser and let the user pick one

#

or you implement some user account system to resolve after the connection is established

#

doesnt even need to have a password, just make the user create a unique player name, and then if he inputs the same name in another tab/window, he can rejoin the session

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 2:00 PM

#

hmm yeah that's a good idea

#

the game already uses only usernames so it'll be easy

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:00 PM

#

you'd probably also need to track their ip addresses to avoid some random person from the other side of the world join their session accidentally lol

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:01 PM

#

Tim, the bot still don't send any message, but in logs i got the channel id, guild id, channel name etc.. Any idea? Should i give you the code?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:01 PM

#

yes

cinder patio May 11, 2020, 2:01 PM

#

yup, already doing that for alt detection! Thanks, without you I'd be probably banging my head right now

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:01 PM

does try not respect the return of a if / else if chain?

sudden geyser May 11, 2020, 2:03 PM

#

You need to await it.

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:03 PM

#

await what exactly?

#

oh wait thats probs not for me

sudden geyser May 11, 2020, 2:05 PM

#

Well is it like if you did return message.channel.send(...) it would not work?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:05 PM

#

ye

#

it doesnt even do the check

#

and instantly skips to the bottom one for administrator permission

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:06 PM

#

@earnest phoenix what does your console.log show?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:08 PM

#

yeah i've got no idea why my code doesn't stop at the return

#

as if try doesn't respect the return in a if / else if chain

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

which return are you expecting it to stop at?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

the one for cd.has

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

everything in console.log or only the channel thing ? ( i have the custom prefix too so is + 200 lines )

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

as it is true

#

but like I log that too, even if its true, it gets skipped

#

like it starts from the bottom LOL

hello im quite new to bot development but i know some C#. so my question is can you use C# to develop a discord bot?¿?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:10 PM

#

probably yes

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:10 PM

#

if it gets skipped then its not true?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:10 PM

#

but when I console log it

slender thistle May 11, 2020, 2:10 PM

#

There's plenty of Discord libraries for C#

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:10 PM

it returns true

does it log if you put a console.log inside that if?

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:12 PM

#

are u talking to me ?

#

how i create a invite?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:12 PM

#

@earnest phoenix looks correct, is it not throwing any error?

#

when a member joins?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:12 PM

#

i have log inside that if, it doesnt log anything

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:13 PM

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: DiscordAPIError: Invalid Form Body

only this

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:13 PM

"only this", thats the reason why its not working lol

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:13 PM

#

but logging the check in the else if returns true

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:13 PM

#

=)))

#

And how to solve this error ?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:15 PM

#

addField() is wrong

#

you cant do addField(a,b,c,d)

#

you have to do addField(a,b).addField(c,d)

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:16 PM

#

Tyy

#

it worked

#

💪

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:17 PM

#

@hollow prawn what is your key supposed to look like?

#

for cd

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 2:17 PM

#

hey

#

when my bot send an image there is an url how can i mask him ?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

wat

#

wdym mask him?

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

wdym ?

#

i dont understand

#

im not english :/

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:19 PM

#

cd is a new set()

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:20 PM

#

ah ok, then what is the item in the set supposed to look like?

#

is it supposed to look like this? "287987598345 + 7237498749223"

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:20 PM

#

yes

#

the values are variable tho

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:20 PM

#

Isn't member.guild.name correct?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:21 PM

#

each separate message author with each separate guild id

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

@earnest phoenix it is correct

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

but in the welcome message it says undefined and there is no error

#

oh nvm, i solved it

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:25 PM

#

@quartz kindle an easy fix would be just removing the check for !message.member.hasPermission('ADMINISTRATOR')

#

and it wouldn't affect the code much, however later on I might need it and i'll have same issue I have rn

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:26 PM

#

its redundant, you can remove it

#

but it wont fix whatever problem you're having

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:26 PM

#

yes, and idk why it even skips it

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:27 PM

#

try console.log(cd.has(...)) before the entire if, or even before the try

sudden geyser May 11, 2020, 2:29 PM

My question relates to JSDoc and WebStorm IDE.

I'm having issues referencing parts of my code in another file. In src/Rin.js, I exported an extended class of the Eris client (https://abal.moe/Eris/docs/Client): https://hatebin.com/hlppuzeezy

I'm using @type to declare each property added and your usual @param for methods/functions.

I'm able to use this.client.logger without any issues in a new command/event, but if I use it in the base class (such as src/structures/Command.js), it says it can't find the variable: https://hatebin.com/gpolgrklha (Unresolved variable logger)

I tried changing Client in only JSDoc to Rin to test it, and it makes methods show up, but not properties. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:30 PM

#

its a false

#

interesting why as the timeout is set to 50 seconds

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:30 PM

#

where are you defining cd btw?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:30 PM

#

at the very top

#

before on message event

#

wait

#

holdup i did a opsie

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:31 PM

#

how to code to put the user avatar to the right corner?

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

.setThumbnail()

#

or something like that, check the docs for the exact usage if u use discord.js

#

yeah it still returns a false for the set

#

as if at the time of adding it it already clears it

#

so it has to do something with the timeout not having proper time

#

as once it gets added timeout runs instantly and it removes it

#

instead of waiting the time

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 2:36 PM

#

@sudden geyser is it just the IDE not resolving it, but the actual code still works when executed?

sudden geyser May 11, 2020, 2:36 PM

#

Yeah the code works itself.

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 2:37 PM

#

isn't this touppercase?

📎 unknown.png

hollow prawn May 11, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

ahhhhhhhh i got it, it was the ms( ) at set timeout, forgot that takes string and converts it to miliseconds

#

so it was not needed ,now the cooldown works properly

nocturne grove May 11, 2020, 2:50 PM

Hey, I was making a seperate file to query my database. I use this:

module.exports = {
    query(queryContent) {
      await new Promise((resolve) => {
        const mysql = require('mysql');
        const con = mysql.createConnection({ ... });

        con.connect();

        con.query(queryContent, (err, result) => {
          if (err) return console.log(err);
          console.log(result); // working here
          return result;
        });

        con.end();
      });
  },
};```

```js
// this is async
const database = require('path');
const result = await database.query('SELECT * FROM table');
console.log(result); // returns undefined```
This is not working, I also tried it with `return new Promise( ... ` instead

sudden geyser May 11, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

In your query callback, try resolve(result) instead. You still need to return the new promise I think.

#

Though I don't know about making a new connection to the database every time to query some stats.

#

Doesn't sound so good.

thanks to WhiteSpirit

rose warren May 11, 2020, 3:53 PM

#

Just store in a "global" database that you call from. I do that with my bot. I have the credits amount in the user account table of my db and call from that. That way their credits aren't associated with a guild id, they're associated with a user id.

Like in the second code block, stop that execution there if the query in the database.query() function gave an error. I could use like return null; with an error and if (result == null) message.reply('an error occured'), but is there an easier way too?

yes this

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

i try it

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

@grizzled raven thats usually caused when u run out of memory

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

but there is 33 images and i want he send juste 1 randomly

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

its a c++ thing

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

you use the result of your math random with the embed functions from the link above

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

i try

const Embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('RED')
.setMessage('message.channel.send(waifu[Math.floor(Math.random() * waifu.length)]);')

message.channel.send(Embed);

#

but its doesnt work

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

there is no setMessage

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

beacause .setMessage doesnt exist

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

read the guide

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

i know

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

also, read about concatenation and string templating

#

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Template_literals

MDN Web Docs

Template literals (Template strings)

Template literals are string literals allowing embedded expressions. You can use multi-line strings and string interpolation features with them.

do more in ur js class

#

mmLol

shell raptor May 11, 2020, 4:35 PM

#

oh

#

i dont understant the guide

#

forget about it

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

"result is 10 + 10" // "result is 10 + 10"
"result is 10" + "10" // "result is 1010"
"result is " + (10 + 10) // result is 20
`result is ${10 + 10}` // result is 20

So I ported my loop code system from djs to eris, but this happens https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/385837258768515083/709443304588050636 wtf (not using LL)

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

@white anvil definitly not caused due to lack of memory

#

i have like 16gb on my system and i use an average of 1.2gb

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

yeah but the heap size won’t be that big

#

nodejs only has a certain amount of allocated memory

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

is there nothing else logged?

#

usually an oom crash dump is way bigger than that

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

nah those traces are about that size

#

the rest is just the report

#

i think?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

yeah thats what im saying

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

maybe ur right

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

the full log is way bigger than just that

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

lol

#

📎 unknown.png

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

that part is pretty useless on its own

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

i have an image of it from a while ago, i'll check

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

it also says if its a memory problem

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

ok so

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

if u didnt get that then idk

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

mine didnt

#

well

#

actually let me go back further

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

were u just running something and this hapepend?

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

yes

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

weird

#

i dont see ur code causing this it must have come from one of the packages you were using

#

unless ur running very weird shit

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

if its an out of memory crash, then its a memory leak

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:57 PM

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

is that everything?

#

allocation failure

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

everything that it shows

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

that smells like an error thrown becuz u ran out of memory

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

and it seems to be an allocation failure

#

why am i lagging

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

it does look like an out of memory, but idk why it doesnt show the report after it

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

yeah

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

ok nvm

#

pretty sure it actually saves a report of it

#

.report-1212221112.json or aomething

white anvil May 11, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

yeah it does

#

in the cwd

#

report.date.time.other shit.json

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

report.20200508.174903.2751.0.001.json

#

but what couldve caused the memory leak

white anvil May 11, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

what does the report say lol

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

my only guess is iterating every guild for the client.emoji getter too often

#

i cant read it

#

actually wait

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

what version of node are you on? is it 32 bit or 64 bit?

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

think this is what you need - ```json
{
"header": {
"event": "Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory",
"trigger": "FatalError",
"filename": "report.20200508.174903.2751.0.001.json",
"dumpEventTime": "2020-05-08T17:49:03Z",
"dumpEventTimeStamp": "1588952943749",
"processId": 2751,
"cwd": "/home/thenoob27/Starboard"
}
}

white anvil May 11, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

the only meaningful line in that is the event

#

lol

#

memory leaks are an absolute pig to fix

#

must be pretty significant for the heap to run out of memory though

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

also, it seems its crashing at around 1.5gb

#

could be related to node's max-old-size

#

try running node with --max_old_space_size=4096

#

to set it at 4gb

white anvil May 11, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

is that rlly smart

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

yeah its around 1.5, never seen total memory usage go past 1.4 lol

#

so should i do that?

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 5:13 PM

#

I'm currently working on music commands for my bot and I got it up and running with no errors but when I attempt to do ?play and then my song link it says that I must be in a voice channel (which I am). My code is listed below, no errors in console either.

#

Is it more efficient to make a class in a separate script and request it if multiple scripts needs it

rare tangle May 11, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

How can I post image with bot, not url. Only image?

#

from url that doesn't end with .png or any file format

unique nimbus May 11, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

You want to post an image which doesn't have an image format?

rare tangle May 11, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

link doesn't end with file format, the url displays image

#

yeah

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

more efficient as opposed to what?

#

@rare tangle you mean generate an image inside the program and send it directly?

unique nimbus May 11, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

having the same class in every script

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

or use an url that doesnt end with a format?

unique nimbus May 11, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

because I have big brain atm and need to make it more efficient

rare tangle May 11, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

I want to post it without url https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/growtopia/images/8/8f/ItemSprites.png/revision/latest/window-crop/width/32/x-offset/64/y-offset/1536/window-width/32/window-height/32?fill=cb-20200501140054

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

oh yeah will --max_old_space_size=4096 work with pm2 and others?

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

if you can reuse the class instance, declare is somewhere, initialize it and attach it to somewhere that you can access from all files

#

if you need multiple instances, then do the same but initialize it on each file where you use it

unique nimbus May 11, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

yes

#

and it would be more efficient wouldn't it

#

as in does crap faster and uses less RAM?

#

because it ain't needing to load the same crap multiple times

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

yes

#

@grizzled raven probably yes

#

pm2 has specific options to pass node arguments

#

you need to check their docs

grizzled raven May 11, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

okay

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

@rare tangle so you want to post it as an attachment

#

are you using discord.js?

rare tangle May 11, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

yep

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

.send({files:["url"]})

rare tangle May 11, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

I've tried
message.channel.send("Whatever words you want here, can be nothing", {files: [file]});
but it worked on links ending with .file format which my url doesn't end

#

It gives a download url instead with no format

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

try this then: .send({files:[{attachment:url,name:"image.png"}]})

rare tangle May 11, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

It worked, thank you!

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 7:36 PM

that happens if respuesta is not valid json

#

console.log(respuesta)

placid hamlet May 11, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

let respuesta = await doRequest("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=id&type=video&q=" + encodeURIComponent(args) + "&key=" + yt_api_key);
    let json = JSON.parse(respuesta);

in this lines, set "respuesta"

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

yes, console.log it before the json line

#

so see what it looks like

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:02 PM

#

how do you git ignore a config.json file cos i want to put my bot code on github

#

is that even possible

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:02 PM

#

just add your config.json to your gitignore file

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:02 PM

#

how do you do that

dusky marsh May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

google

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

k

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

do you have a gitignore file?

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

no

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

then create one

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

k

#

k done

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

its text file that has to be named .gitignore

#

now open it, and write config.json

#

and save it

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

k

#

ok

#

done

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

thats it

#

now everytime you push your repo to github, that file will be ignored

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

oh

#

kew

#

o

#

k

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

do you use github desktop?

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

no

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

you use the git command line?

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

ye

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

can you make it preview which files will be pushed?

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

how do you do that

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

idk, i use the desktop version, it does that for you automatically

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

oh

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

but anyway, you can make a test

#

delete your important stuff from your config.json

#

and try pushing it

#

see if your config.json is properly ignored

#

if it works and your config.json is not sent to github, put your important stuff back in it

hardy vector May 11, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

ok

royal laurel May 11, 2020, 8:12 PM

how could i make it so they can hit again

#

because right now they hit and cant hit again

Which type of actions (for a bot) can require administrator permissions ?

royal laurel May 11, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

in what context

slender thistle May 11, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

None

royal laurel May 11, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

like what permissions you will need?

#

because

#

shivaco is right

cloud heart May 11, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

I just saw that admin perms are prohibited

royal laurel May 11, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

you dont need any

#

i dont think

cloud heart May 11, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

But a few bots are declined because they need admin perms

#

So

Does anyone know if there's a way to dynamically subscribe to new messages in guilds? Parsing every single message in every guild is quite expensive

I see a lot of bots getting declined because they have certain web search function, which could be misused for nsfw. In my case I have made a bot in the queue with which you can add any number of wikis to an server. Is that any reason to be declined?

white anvil May 11, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

wikis as in from wikipedia?

#

i think they have nsfw images in there for some specific wikis lol

#

or at least used to

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

Any wiki basically, as long as it uses the mediawiki api (which wikipedia, but also every gamepedia and fandom wiki is based on). So f.e. nookpedia.com, minecraft.gamepedia.com, scpcb.gamepedia.com.

white anvil May 11, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

idk lol

#

depends if they accept wikis that contain a lot of nsfw content i guess

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

#

So yeah, I have no influence on which wikis people add

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

can the wikis be directly searched by users with no setup? if yes, should be nsfw only
the wikis need to be explicitly enabled by admins before users are able to search them? if yes, should be fine

earnest phoenix May 11, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

Yeah, only the owner of a server is able to add and remove wikis

white anvil May 11, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

thats fine then

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 8:46 PM

then i dont see why not

should be fine

i have a rlly edge case where my bot can screenshot websites

Epoch time continues to increase in numerical value right

so a statement like

wind snow May 11, 2020, 9:20 PM

#

@slender thistle then what do you call it when you make a bot public

slender thistle May 11, 2020, 9:22 PM

#

Listing it

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 9:22 PM

#

@wind snow to clarify a few points:
top.gg is not a hosting service, they do not host bots, they just list them. All bot owners need to provide their own hosting service or host it somewhere.
top.gg is a place for public bots, so if your bot is supposed to be used only in your server, not point for it being public.
and honestly, i dont think $5 would be enough, even for a simple job like that

#

sure some people might do it even for free, but a quality developer with some experience will likely charge more than that

maiden mauve May 11, 2020, 9:27 PM

#

Even if they had a template to start something basic

#

I'd valuate a "custom bot" at $50 minimum assuming debugging and being asked to do this and that

#

More rewarding to spend a few weeks learning and be able to do whatever you want

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 9:29 PM

#

also there is an issue with the role logic

#

afaik the current role limit is 250

so with enough players having a unique number of wins, you would reach that limit eventually

Yep, the role limit is 250

I consider myself capable of doing pixel art but some people are much better at shading

downscale it to 32x32 in photoshop before uploading to discord

then it will be 1:1 scale

i upscale 16x/32x to 512x lul

I think that's the best part of pixels is that they always downscale well

then discord downscales it back and screws it

xD

mossy vine May 11, 2020, 9:48 PM

yes but 32x looks even shittier somehow

quartz kindle May 11, 2020, 9:48 PM

turn it into an array then index it

Two ways are turning it into an array and accessing the index 20 or using the find function and checking the index to be 20th.

var embed = new RichEmbed()
.setTitle('In Game Action!')

When you guys use a DB and make a connection in JS, do you store it in like client.xyz?

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:02 AM

#

That's json

#

If you use a db you'll need queries

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:02 AM

Because if I want to do that, such as

(async () => {
    try {
        const result = await mysql.createConnection({
            host: process.env.DB_IP,
            user: process.env.DB_USER,
            password: process.env.DB_PASS,
            database: process.env.DB_NAME,
        });
        client.con = result;
        // The rest of the index.js file inside of here
    } catch(e) {
        console.error("DB ERROR: " + e);
    };
console.log(client.con);

``` I need to put all of my code inside that try statement

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:02 AM

#

Unless it's an object db

#

That'll save your connection as con parameter of client

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:03 AM

#

Right

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:03 AM

#

Afterwards u just need to retrieve it to create queries

@blissful karma use these quotes " everywhere

#

the ones u use are weird fancy ones that json doesnt support

#

it needs to be the straight ones

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

So do I .then() of the async function?

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

Yes

quartz kindle May 12, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

just put the console.log inside it

#

and it will work lol

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

And put the rest of my index.js file inside of the .then?

quartz kindle May 12, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

no

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

Also, it'd be better if u run that code BEFORE you start your bot

#

Like, store the connection as a sole variable

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

https://sourceb.in/96ef7aa21d

#

That's my main index.js file

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

You might run into issues later on if your bot starts before your db connects

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

I mean I put the connection before client.login

quartz kindle May 12, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

the reason your console.log is returning undefined is that all code inside an async function has a bit of delay to complete, but this delay does not block the rest of your code, so your console.log is executed before the async function is finished

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

Ah gotcha

#

So then I thought I would put all my code inside the .then for it to work

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

Just dont bro

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

Then how am I gonna wait on that to finish

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

Put only the login inside .then

quartz kindle May 12, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

you dont need to, because the discord client also takes a while to initialize, and by the time the client is ready, that async function already finished a long time ago

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

Or that

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

Ooooooooh @lyric mountain

#

Honestly, I just want to do this the same way bigger developers do it

#

I want to learn the right way

#

So if that is to .login inside the .then so be it

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

That's the right spirit

#

Actually, kudos to you for even trying db as first persistence method

quartz kindle May 12, 2020, 12:09 AM

#

if you're gonna use .then, you dont need the async function lol

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:09 AM

#

Most just go to json as it's the easier path

#

@quartz kindle the connection is an async method afaik

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:09 AM

#

Thanks. I mean I've done D.JS for about a year now and I'm working with someone and this came up

#

I always used promise-mysql, then put ALL my code inside the .then

#

Now I use mysql2

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:10 AM

#

You just need to pay attention to code flow

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:10 AM

#

This is my first bot that is extremely organized so

#

Gotcha

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:11 AM

#

Also, one thing I HEAVILY recommend u is to make a global functions file

#

For example

#

Let's say you use doSomeMath() in a lot of places in your code

#

Instead of declaring it everywhere, you could put it inside a file, export it and call it in other places

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:12 AM

#

Yeah I'm doing that with my dbqueries

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 12:12 AM

#

This way you'll have a more organized code, probably a lighter one and debugging will be a cake

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

I make a function for getting user's data, etc. Then this is also my first time I am actually storing mysql data in the client. For example, I will map everything I need to in the client. Then for things that change, such as a user's points, a guild's config, etc, I just have to updated both the map and the DB

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 1:01 AM

So, the only thing i see there is you sending the stored prefix

earnest phoenix May 12, 2020, 1:02 AM

#

right... but id like to send default if no stored prefox is there

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 1:02 AM

#

You could just do prefix === undefined ? "k/" : prefix

#

Or just do an if else clause

earnest phoenix May 12, 2020, 1:03 AM

#

i did attempt an if else but always messup when i get an error:
cannot read prefixes of undefined

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 1:06 AM

#

You've checked it wrong then

#

Because prefixes IS undefined if the require failed

I am a bit confused with "guildMember.roles.set([])", how do I use it if I have the username of the user?

#

I am reading documentation and it uses methods that depend on the user either being mentioned or sending a message

#

I just want to add a role from the username

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:18 AM

#

you fetch the user

#

and get an user object from there

#

don't post dots for fucks sake

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:19 AM

#

you use <guild>.members.cache.find, you can't fetch with a username

magic jackal May 12, 2020, 2:20 AM

        global codes
        global role
        codes = []
        if message.content.find("$addcode ") != -1:
            if message.author == message.guild.owner:
                arg = message.content.split(' ')
                codes.append(arg[1])
                role = arg[2]
            else:

that is part of the code for my join codes bot
i wanted new server members to be able to claim a few hours of ranks when they join but
$addcode works properly
$code keeps saying that the codes added with $addcode dont exist
to see if $addcode was the problem i added a print(codes) function after it adds the code

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:24 AM

#

@copper cradle @smoky spire any example code that I can see?

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:25 AM

#

<guild>.members.cache.find(member => member.user.username === 'nameHere');

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:25 AM

#

tbh ..username should be renamed to name

#

unless the user object has a name property already

#

other than that it's very redundant

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:27 AM

#

but it's called a username

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:27 AM

#

are u trying to find a specific member by name?

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:27 AM

#

yes

#

but user.name

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:28 AM

#

if ur doing python i can help

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:28 AM

#

but if you don't call ur user var "user" than that doesn't work

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:28 AM

#

the dude asking the question was using js

#

I didn't mean just user.name

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:29 AM

#

Also just name could be confused between nickname and username for new devs

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

Sorry guys, maybe it's better I ask in the DiscordJS server

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

what did you try?

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

i think it would be the same
put all members in list
loop through that list and check wether the name matches the one your looking for
in python:

members = message.guild.members
for x in members
    if x.name == name:
        do whatever

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

David show the code you have

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

ik ur using JS but i cannot do loops in JS

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

and any the error log if you're getting one

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

I don't have any code for this function @copper cradle

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

the logic is the same

#

what do you mean then

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

I gave you an example david

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:33 AM

#

how come you don't have code

#

if keenser gave you pseudo code

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:33 AM

#

im not sure why u need the member name try finding by member object

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:33 AM

#

huh

#

they're trying to find a member by its name

#

they could filter it tho

#

wait

smoky spire May 12, 2020, 2:34 AM

#

filter returns more than one result

copper cradle May 12, 2020, 2:34 AM

#

that's what I was gonna say

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:35 AM

#

@copper cradle I'm not even sure how to start implementing, I'm processing the info

#

https://ideone.com/NhlXxH

Ideone.com

Ideone is something more than a pastebin; it's an online compiler and debugging tool which allows to compile and run code online in more than 40 programming languages.

#

But I didn't implement that yet

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:36 AM

#

i think it would be the same
put all members in list
loop through that list and check wether the name matches the one your looking for
in python:

members = message.guild.members
for x in members
if x.name == name:
do whatever

this is the python code
im sure its the same principle
create list with all member objects
loop through that list and check if name matches

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:36 AM

#

@viscid goblet are you talking about what I asked?

#

There's no way to just refer to the userid ?

#

I thought this would be easier

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:37 AM

#

yes there is

earnest phoenix May 12, 2020, 2:37 AM

#

if you don't know where and how to implement that piece of code it's maybe a sign you should backtrack and learn a bit about programming and the language you're working with

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:37 AM

#

I have User#1234, this is not enough? I have to search for the user by creating some list? sorry guys a bit lost here

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:37 AM

#

the member object contains most info about member: name, tag, id and mention

#

dude this is code for creting list

members = message.guild.members

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:39 AM

#

Can you explain the logic to me step by step? So

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:39 AM

#

~~do you need the author id?~~ blind

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:39 AM

#

The way to do this is to create a list of all members right?

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:40 AM

#

can you explain what you're trying to do?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:41 AM

#

Give a role to a member from a command

#

For example, !member User#1234

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:41 AM

#

find the member

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:41 AM

#

i gave u the list code then u need to use loop code

for x in members
    if x.name or x.id == name or id:
        do whatever

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:41 AM

#

you don't really need that if you're looking for a specific member

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:41 AM

#

But you guys lose me completely when you say find the member

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:42 AM

#

get the guild

#

and fetch the members from that guild

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:42 AM

#

do not use both use if x.name == name: or if x.id == id:

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:42 AM

#

you can use methods such as .find or .get

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:42 AM

#

Again, I will ask because I am confused. The way to do this is create a list of members?

#

and then I have to find the member that has that user id right?

pale vessel May 12, 2020, 2:42 AM

#

you might want to learn basic javascript and read discord.js documentation

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:42 AM

#

so u want to know how to add a role to message author?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:43 AM

#

@north crane I think my challenge now is referencing a user from a userid

#

But ok, I will try some stuff now

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:43 AM

#

two options: A) use my bot verify (ive made this code before) B) message.author.add_roles(role)

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:44 AM

#

I don't want to get it from the author

#

I want to get it from a command!

#

!member User#1234

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

ok so ur command is !member @ user

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

Yes

#

It should give a Role to the user which is referred

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

u will need to account for args so here help with that

if message.content.find("!member ") != -1:
    arg = message.content.split(' ')

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

Let me start with that

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

now do u think you know how to get the member from the first argument

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

I think that's exactly the part I am most lost with

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

dude thats the easiest part member = arg[1]

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

You mean that..., that yeah I could figure out

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

member is your user and it takes that from the first argument (arg[1])

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

It creates a list right? So yeah.

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

arg is your list

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

Split on spaces, nice.

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

arg is the list of arguments included with the command

#

however this means u can use a command inside a message

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

Sounds good, not a problem

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

like
hello im gonna do !member @ user

#

the command would still work

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

I see, but not so worried about it.

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

ok

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

I could fine tune it later.

#

Really just wanted to get the bulk of it working.

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

now u need to actually give the role
the function for this is add_roles(role)

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

But just wait a second

#

Is this python?

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

yes

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

OH ok, I am using Discord JS lol

#

I am trippin hard here now

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

i tried and failed making bots with JS so i switched to python cos ive used for 2 years

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

My bot is almost finished

#

Just need this part

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

yeah what role do u want to assign to the user (I assume the member role)

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

Yes, I want to assing a role called Member

#

It's part of a whole workflow

#

People signup on a form, the form sends a webhook to discord, the bot should grab that webhook and assign a role to a member

#

I already did the whole thing

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

if u didnt define the role earlier i REALLY hope i have some old Verify code on my system

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

So registered users get the role automatically

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

yeah i dont BRB

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:57 AM

#

I learned a bit of python in the past

#

So that's why your code was sounding very right

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

ok i hope this works

roles = message.guild.roles
for x in roles
    if x.name == "Member" or "member":
        role = x
await member.add_roles(role)

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

But this is python right?

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

yes

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

I understand it, not sure if I can translate it though

viscid goblet May 12, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

in case u need, heres how u do post requests in python

import request
#add to top ^
a = request.post(url, content)

#

i have my own bot to fix

#

make that two bots a bunch of people have been DMing me about my free nitro generator not working for them but i tried and it worked perfecty

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:11 AM

Tough shit

#

@lapis ocean why do you need to send 'n catch a webhook?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:14 AM

#

Because I want to give people that signup on a form get a role automatically @lyric mountain

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:14 AM

#

Sure but, the bot that'll send a form is the same bot that'll give the role, right?

#

?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

What do you mean "send a form" ?

#

It's a webform

#

The bot gives a link to the form.

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:21 AM

#

So, why don't you just create a webserver and send the data there?

#

Then listen to requests made to it and give the role directly

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:22 AM

#

Because that sounds like I have to build a universe from scratch

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:22 AM

#

Using webhooks would be very iffy, since you can't detect which user is a wh and which is a real bot

#

No you don't

#

2 min setup with express

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:22 AM

#

I have everything working already, a website a form, everything integrated with each other

#

You telling me I would need a new form, maybe coded from scratch or something?

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:23 AM

#

No

#

Just install a webserver in ur bot

#

And send the data there

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:23 AM

#

AS a webhook?

#

My form system has webhooks working

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:23 AM

#

As a http request

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:24 AM

#

Yeah, I would have to build my own form system or use another solution that doesn't have the same integrations

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:24 AM

#

Oh my

#

Ok then, what's ur issue?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:25 AM

#

Just not figuring out clearly how to give a role to a user

#

I'm using Discord JS

#

Diamond already gave me some hints using python

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:25 AM

#

Have you read the docs?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:25 AM

#

I've skimmed :eyeroll:

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:27 AM

#

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildMemberRoleManager

Discord.js

Discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

It's like, right there

#

I've read that @lyric mountain , but not sure how to implement due to low IQz or something

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:30 AM

#

guild.member.roles.set

#

Guild can be gotten from the message object

#

The message object is returned from onMessage event

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

message object?

#

But what if the user doens't send a message?

#

I wanted to do a command like !member User#1234

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

Aren't you getting user id on the form?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

Yes, actually I am getting user.tag

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

No

#

User ID

#

Tag can be changed

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

really?

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

Never ever use it for checking

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

But it's almost in real time

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

The tag will change if you change ur name or number

#

Believe me

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

I believe you

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

If it can break, it WILL break

#

Users are dumb

#

More than u think

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

Isn't that murphy's law or something?

#

LOL

#

The users are very removed from the process

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

Like, just get the id from the mention

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

Hence why I built it this way, my other solution relied on users typing in their own user IDs

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

Then use it for user manipulation

#

The mention is a user object

#

You can get the id from it

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

Which mention? The mention generated by the command?

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

@lapis ocean <--- user object

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:35 AM

#

The problem is that if I asked for a Userid on the form I don't have a manual fall back

#

Where in case the bot doesn't work or isn't compatible with some feature at least the user could input their ID manually

#

User IDs are already complicated enough on Discord

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

Well, that looks like a job for an oAuth2 login

#

They aren't

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

Yeah, but that's more complicated, I just have a form really

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

User ids are as simple as it can get

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

They are not user friendly

#

That's what I mean.

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

They are

#

How can it get more simple?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

Ok, I am not trying to argue with you.

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

A number = a user

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

Easy

#

ID = Email

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

Email is complicated

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

ID doesn't have any #09348

#

Everyone remembers their email, that's my point. That's what complicates this

#

On form submission the user submit their email anyway

#

But this is all beyond the point.

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:38 AM

#

You're trying to reinvent the wheel, the user doesn't need to know their ID

astral yoke May 12, 2020, 3:38 AM

#

if i have this

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:38 AM

#

Just put a GET param on the form url

#

Simple

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

Ok, I have realized the best way to do this is to not force the user to get to know his ID or even User Tag

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

formwebsite.com?userid=123456789

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

That's what I do

#

What did you think I was doing?

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

Then what's the issue?

#

You already have the id

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:40 AM

#

I mean, I do that except I do it with tags

#

Maybe I should do it with the userid

lyric mountain May 12, 2020, 3:40 AM

#

Dude

#

Forget the tags

#

Mkay?

lapis ocean May 12, 2020, 3:40 AM

#

Ok, it's bad right?

abstract crow May 12, 2020, 3:40 AM

If I wanted to store DB rows in a variable should I use maps or is there another approach? I hate having to do .get("rowName");. I'd rather just do .rowName like a regular query
