And what

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 12:58 PM

🤦‍♂️

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 12:58 PM

#

your discordjs version

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 12:59 PM

#

if he was using v11, the error would be cant read size of undefined

not guilds of undefined

even Tim the expert is disgusted

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 1:00 PM

#

@earnest phoenix you need to do string concatenation

#

do you know what that is?

#

for example

#

if you do js a = "abc" b = "zyx" then you can do a + b to get "abcxyz"

#

similarly, you can also do "abc" + b to get "abcxyz"

#

but you cannot do "abc".b which is what you tried to do

#

also, you put it in the wrong place

pale vessel May 16, 2020, 1:02 PM

#

what is this php?

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 1:02 PM

#

you have to add it to the "help" not to the watching type

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 1:02 PM

#

`${//guild size}` works too

I am trying to set up an ev command for a test bot, but I can not figure it out 😦 something doesnt really work, no matter what I try.

#

if(command === "ewv") {
  if(!message.channel.id == "id")return;
  else{
  try {
    if(toEval) {
        const toEval = args.join(" ");
        let evaluated = eval(toEval)
        let embed = new RichEmbed()
        .setTitle("eval")
        .addField("To evaluate:", `\`\`\`js\n${beautify(args.join(" "), { format:"js"})}\n\`\`\``)
        .addField("Evaluated", evaluated)
        .addField("Type of:", typeof(evaluated));
      message.channel.send(embed);
    }
} catch(error) {
      message.channel.send({embed: {
      color: 15158332,
      title: "Evaluation Cancelled",
      description: `${error}`,
      author: {

        icon_url: message.author.avatarURL
      },
      timestamp: new Date()
    }});

this doesnt work for some reasons.

here what the chat gives me. I tried some stuff, but yeah.

i wouldnt put ` inside each other, even escaped, usually causes headaches

#

just do "```js\n" + beaufity() + "```"

#

you can also get the full stack trace if you use error.stack

@quartz kindle no I can not

it says: toEval is not defined

for rest you need to compare the time it takes for a request to finish

All of a sudden, my (tester) bot doesn't fire all events, what am I doing wrong?

client.on('guildMemberRemove', async (member) => {

});```

#

ow nvm I see what this idiot did

#

@next mica compare their text with their message.content.toUpperCase(). If that's true, you know they used caps

#

if that's what you mean

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

like

#

it runs the command Captial or not in the activation words

nocturne grove May 16, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

you mean the PING command only gets executed when they send PING, not ping?

#

like that

frail ocean May 16, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

So you want it to be caps sensitive? If so somewhere you either got toLowerCase() or toUpperCase(), remove that and it should work.

nocturne grove May 16, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

^

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

i dont have that

nocturne grove May 16, 2020, 4:16 PM

then it's already case sensitive

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:16 PM

i want it not to be

i want it to work

ohhh

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

so

#

[p]test and [p]Test

#

both work

nocturne grove May 16, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

compare their content toLowerCase() with your command name

frail ocean May 16, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

So if you don't want it to be caps sensitive, do:

var command = message.content.toLowerCase()

And instead of message.content you do command

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

where do i put the car

#

client.on('message' , function(message){
if(message.content === '[p]test'){
message.author.send('Just testing my personal message ability');
}
});

Inbetween the client.on and if.

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

then it would detect both ways

frail ocean May 16, 2020, 4:19 PM

Then it wouldn'tmatter if you did:

[p]test
[p]TesT
[p]TEST
[p]tEsT

next mica May 16, 2020, 4:19 PM

so do i do message.command

Anything like that it'd be fine.

@lyric mountain am i supposed to do that for every user value in my score?

@earnest phoenix what version of Node.js are you using.

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

i think the latest one

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

X		=		100%
Y		=		Z

#

So Y * 100 / X = Z

#

Replace the values with the ones you have

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 4:25 PM

@earnest phoenix update your node version to v12

Node.js.

Not Discord.js.

im confused

#

x is my total reward

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:26 PM

Let's say you wanna know how much is 33% of 123

#

33 * 123 / 100 = X

how can i rewrite this to work with d.js v12?

for (user of users){ ```

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

@earnest phoenix I said node not discord js

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

That is the rule of three, the easiest way to get any percentage

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

yea i have like 50 users on a score, each one has a different y value. how am i supposed to put each one in?

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

do you not know how to read?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

What is the total?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

changes all the time

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

Ok, so I'll call it TOTAL

#

You'd do it like this:

#

desiredValue * 100 / TOTAL = percentage

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

for starters i dont even know how to get the total from a score lol

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

Or if you want the value instead of tge percentage :

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

I literally said update your node version
and the dude literally replies dIsCoRd.Js?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

desiredPercentage * TOTAL / 100 = value

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

ok so

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

Save those two equations somewhere, it might help u later

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

i have reward of 50. say user 1 has rate of 20 and user 2 has rate of 70. how do i make it do that and add the respective amount to the user?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:31 PM

#

100% = 50
20% = X

#

Transforming that to equation:

#

20 * 50 / 100 = X

#

Do the same for 70

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:35 PM

#

so i need to do that for every value in the score

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:35 PM

#

Yep

#

desiredPercentage * TOTAL / 100 = value
Use this equation

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

@earnest phoenix did you update it already?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

but it aint realistic to write that out for every user

#

is there like a for statement to do that for every user in a score?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:37 PM

#

Yes

#

Just use variables in the equation

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 4:37 PM

#

@copper cradle yes

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Where is that?

#

Code plz

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:45 PM

        score = client.getScore.get(message.author.id);

@mossy vine what lib

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

d.js v12

#

i get that its because uncached

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

yeah you need to fetch the users

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

but how do i fetch them

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

users.fetch()

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

IF I DONT EVEN GET THE SNOWFLAKES OF THE USERS THAT REACTED

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

lol you are able to fetch them lmao

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

ok what the fuck is this library

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

@halcyon ember that code is very confusing

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

i think its because the v7 api or whatever doesnt send reaction users when you fetch a message

amber fractal May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

It doesnt

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

You're checking for !score twice in a row

amber fractal May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

It says it doesnt give reactions when you fetch a message doesnt it?

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

no @lyric mountain, the same thing with djs which has awaitMessages, the same thing but in eris

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

You assign it before and after the check

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

well v11 does

#

also nvm

#

they both use 7 so

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

but with reactions

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

@digital ibex what?

#

Ah

#

Is that about message pagination?

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

djs has message.channel.awaitMessages, i want the same kinda thing with eris but with reactions,

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

yeah idk why d.js v12 doesnt and v11 does bit

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

hoping that makes mroe sense lol

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

@lyric mountain huh whats wrong?

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

no its not

amber fractal May 16, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

📎 Screenshot_2020-05-16-12-48-58.png

#

v11 auto fetches in the background

#

v12 disabled that to allow it to use less resources

#

Because reactions arent always needed

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

oh ok

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

@halcyon ember if score is already true, you don't need a second check

#

Also, you redefined the score value

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

no likee how do i make a statement to put it into that equasion

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

Idk where you want this

#

Like, where do you need it?

grizzled raven May 16, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

i dont seem to be able to find where d.jsv11 auto fetches the reactions but

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

so currently i have a function thats set to run everey 10 minutes

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

Right

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

inside that it currently just sends a message to a specific channel

#

but I want it so that whenever that function runs it calculates rewards and distributes them accordingly

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

Which message is sent?

#

A message containing all users?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

it just says 'test'

#

it sends to a channel

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

But what will it contain?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

it doesnt say anything

#

im going to remove that and change it to the reward distribution

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

Ok dude, but I need a real scenario here to know where you'd calculate the share

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

omg ok im just going to explain the entire bot then

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

No need

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

is there a way to get a list of the people that reacted to a message? (discord.py)

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

just why i'd need to generate the distribution?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

If you're gonna list all users you'll need to iterate over each

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

wdym?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

Just calculate the share in that iteration

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

how do i do that from the score?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

@bronze sail not talking to u, just do message.reactions

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

ooh ok

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

Ah, python

#

It might be different then

#

Just look at the docs

#

@halcyon ember that's the issue

#

Idk the value of score

#

Since you've defined it twice

#

@grizzled raven halp

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

huh let me check

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

ye im confused im looking at the docs, but it doesnt explain something

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

i mean i just followed this guide

#

https://anidiots.guide/coding-guides/sqlite-based-points-system

SQLite-Based Points System

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

That changes EVERYTHING

#

And makes that code even more confuse

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

uhh huh

keen path May 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

obfuscation achieved

#

blep

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

@bronze sail message has reactions property

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

blep

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

You just need to iterate over it

#

And get which user reacted

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

but idk where to use this

#

like how do i do this:

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

bruh

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

i want the bot to send a message then react to it, then another command will get the reactions from that message

keen path May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

what are you using?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

@bronze sail you want a reaction button?

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

im so confused

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

no i already know how to get the bot to react

#

i want to get the reactions from a certain message

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

No, I mean

keen path May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

I think it's a "how many reactions does message X have" command

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

$$reactions <messageid>

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

Reactiokn button, a reaction which has a function once clicked

keen path May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

what framework are you using?

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

sure

#

i think were both confused here

#

draskblep

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

So apparently my bot (using lavalink+shoukaku) leaves the vc sometimes before playing songs, and I found a error "Something broke" in the lavalink server logs. How can I solve this issue?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

Oh no, not another issue

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

It's the last one

#

@bronze sail smh

bronze sail May 16, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

bruh

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

See the returned song payload

#

Some songs can't be played

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

The bot logs returns a "song Finished" event, but no error

#

And then if the user retries it works

#

With the same song

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

Maybe it's because of YouTube ads

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

u got an idea 4 what i can do KuuHaKu?

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

Ads

#

Fuck them

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

@lyric mountain ok so the score code i have first checks if there is already a entry for the users. Then if there is not it creates a new one with the values I added in. Then I have a variable totalrate = score.i1*1000+score.i2*2000+score.13*3000. Which allows me to tell the user their current rate. But score is matched to the user id of the message author

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

What you want is related to reaction button functions @digital ibex

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

yes @lyric mountain

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

Time to meme: can I use ad block with lavalink

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

i'm not using Eris' command client

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

Then find a lib for that, it's not easy to do

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

Well fuck

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

Reaction buttons are very tricky to do if you don't know how to directly handle events

modest maple May 16, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

@tight plinth Normally if it cuts out mid way its because the Video stream timed out

digital ibex May 16, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

yeah, thats why i'm doing that 😓

#

oki, thanks

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

@halcyon ember just apply that function there

tight plinth May 16, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

Hmm

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

but i want a for statement for every user

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

Then do that for every user

#

You will need to iterate over them sometime

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

how tf to do that

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:18 PM

#

That's the question

#

Without a code I can't say how would you do it

#

That code you've shown I've not understood

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:18 PM

#

what part of my code u need

#

the score?

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

I need to see how and where you're calculating each user's score

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

i dont calculate the score

clear wraith May 16, 2020, 5:19 PM

                                                                      ^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token :```
?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

        const xmrhashrate = score.i3*1500+score.i5*2500+score.i7*4000+score.i9*5000+score.x1900*4500+score.x1920*8000+score.x1950*10000
            const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
            .setColor('#ff9933')
            .setTitle(message.author.username+"'s Hashrate")
            .addField('RandomX (XMR)', convert(xmrhashrate))
            .addField('Ethash (ETH)', '0H/s')
            .addField('SHA-256D (BTC)', '0H/s')
            .setFooter('$invite - Add me to your server')
            message.channel.send(embed)
          }``` thats where it prints it out

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

But how are you getting every user's score

#

You gotta be iterating somewhere

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

im not

summer torrent May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

                                                                      ^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token :```
?

@clear wraith {}

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

So you gotta do that first

summer torrent May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

not []

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

i havent did anything to get all the users score

#

i dont know how to either

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Do that first

#

Then we can go calculate each one's share

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

how

clear wraith May 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

O

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Idk, do a little research, that's specific for your bot

clear wraith May 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Ok

lyric mountain May 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Not u

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

k

clear wraith May 16, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

lol, IK

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

i cant find anything on google about iterating something from a sqlite base

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

how are the scores stored?

modest maple May 16, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

I mean you dont rlly iterate over SQLite db

#

you iterate over the cursor after executing a Select query

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

right its stored in sqlite tied to the user

#

i mean theyre in a file

#

heres the guide i wasa following https://anidiots.guide/coding-guides/sqlite-based-points-system

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

and what do you want to do?

#

compare scores from many people?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

what i want it to do is basically get the values from everybody

#

and then put them into a math equasion to distribute a reward

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

the easiest way to to that would be to get everyone

#

in better-sqlite3: database.prepare("SELECT * FROM table").all()

#

that will basically dump the entire database into an array

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

oh

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

of course thats not the most efficient way to do it, especially if your database grows large

#

but to make something more efficient requires some thought

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

i have a const xmrhashrate = score.i3*1500+score.i5*2500+score.i7*4000+score.i9*5000+score.x1900*4500+score.x1920*8000+score.x1950*10000 and i want it to geenerate that for every user

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

generate it one time only, or generate it and save it?

#

is it gonna be different every time it is generated?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

then theres a total reward of say 5 and user 1 has 100 user 2 has 40 and user 3 has 60. i want it to distribute the 5 reward over to the users based on how much of the total

#

yes its going to be different

#

well itll only be different if somebody changes their profile in the bot

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

are you making a blockchain bot?

#

xD

#

what if you have 500 users

#

does the 5 get distributed among all 500?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

yep

#

yes it is a blockchain bot

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

is it global? not per sever?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

global

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

so the most efficient way is to probably have SQL do the calculations internally

#

instead of getting everything from it, calculating and the shoving everything back inside

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

i have better-sqlite3 idk if that workss

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

it will work, you just need a somewhat complex SQL to do it

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

how to do that? i dont really understand sql

#

also does it get slow if im making it run every 20-30 seconds

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

for example, you could do something like SELECT i3*1500+i5*2500 FROM scores to have sqlite calculate it inside

#

i didnt test it, so idk if thats the proper syntax

#

but its possible to go further and use the value to directly distribute and update the database

#

without ever returning the value to you

buoyant niche May 16, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

hi

#

hi

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

well i guess that works

#

but how to make it do that for every user

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

if you dont use the WHERE clause, it will run for all entries by default

#

if you want to get all results, you have to use .all()

#

instead of .get()

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

so i just throw
SELECT i3*1500+i5*2500etc.. FROM scorees and that returns array or what

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

if you use .all() it should return an array

#

so test it, idk if it will work

#

you might need to put them in parenthesis

modest maple May 16, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Will SQLite even accept you giving it a math equation when it expects column names?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

and how am i supposed to make it process that array to distribute rewards

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

that will take a more complex query, i never tried doing something like that

#

ill try playing around with it a little

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

ok thanks im so confused on making it work lol

modest maple May 16, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

I dont actually think SQLite can even do that

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

pepeshrug

modest maple May 16, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

Somthing like Postgres would allow an entire logical operation etc... but SQlite is bare bones

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:58 PM

#

i mean right now i just have it calculate it whenever the user asks for it

modest maple May 16, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

whats the issue with that?

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

there is no issue

#

what i want is it to calculate that for EVERY user to distribute rewards

modest maple May 16, 2020, 6:01 PM

#

Overall i would advise not doing it that way

#

and instead doing it when a user checks or somthing

#

because if that DB gets bigger it will eat shit when you try to get everything and apply it and update it

#

its just a bit inefficient

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

i mean is there a better way to do it?

modest maple May 16, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

doing it when a user checks or somthing

#

Theres no point distributing rewards to a user that might never use it or check it

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 6:04 PM

#

what im makin is like a crypto minin game

#

and i want it to distribute rewards everytime a 'block' is found

#

just like how it actually works

pine jacinth May 16, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

I am developing in C# and ran into a problem with the api.
This is in my ReadyAsync:

AuthDiscordBotListApi AuthDBApi = new AuthDiscordBotListApi(_client.CurrentUser.Id, Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("DBO_TOKEN"));

            _ = Task.Run(async () => {
                IDblSelfBot DB_Bot = await AuthDBApi.GetMeAsync();
                await DB_Bot.UpdateStatsAsync(_client.Guilds.Count);
                await Task.Delay(1000 * 60 * 10);
            });

But 4th line throws a NullReferenceException. What am I doing wrong?

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

@clear wraith you tried to pass in an array instead of an object

huh let me see

#

oh so it works?

#

like the math

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

here i successfully set all "name" columns to the result of "hint x 1500 + test x 2500" of each row

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

yea so it works

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

yes it works, just its a lot more complex to do such operations in raw SQL

#

but its probably more efficient since there is no round trip to and from your process

halcyon ember May 16, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

so how am I supposed to get that and put it into a math equasion to distribute rewards

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

idk how i would do the distribution part tbh, i'd need to research on it

@fickle arch the json format follows specific rules

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

@grizzled raven it's the same in python the len property

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

it has to be like this ```json
{
"key":"value"
}

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

the len function is literally this
def len(a):
return a._len_

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

on the settings.json ?.

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

guess

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

yes

#

if the file doesnt follow that specific format, it will be considered invalid

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

so the value was the token ?.

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

json is very strict, if there is a single character wrong, it will invalidate the whole file

#

idk how your file looks like so idk

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

it just simple like ownerid,token,prefix,etc.

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

yes but how is it formatted?

#

@still merlin your long description is not an independent page

#

its injected into the existing top.gg page

#

all your css rules and html need to respect this, there are already existing html/head/body tags and existing css you need to consider

still merlin May 16, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

oh yeah-

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

it's like

{
  "ownerid": "youridhere",
  "prefix": "?",
  "token": "yourtokenhere",
}

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

that last ,

#

at the end of the last element

#

tho

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

json doesnt accept trailing commas

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

that shouldn't be there

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

if the comma is not separating anything, it should be removed

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

so after token no need comma after that ?.

copper cradle May 16, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

yeah

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

yes, since there is no next item

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

unless there another code after }

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

no, nothing should ever be after }

#

you'd add a comma if you wanted another item under token

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

aight, i get it unless no need to add another under token so there's no need to put another comma ?.

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:38 PM

after i replace const token with const settings it shown an invalid token was provided.

without me having to do array[0].object2.number ?

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:42 PM

@fickle arch how did you import it and use it in your code?

@digital ibex thats exactly how you do it

which part you dont want to hardcode? the index 0?

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 7:43 PM

what do you mean on import it ?.

like const settings = require(./settings.json); or something ?.

yes

which part of the data is dynamic?

its like

#

and other ones

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

so you have an array of objects like that, and you want to find one object by their number?

then use the array.find() function

Array.prototype.sort()

The sort() method sorts the elements of an array in place and returns the sorted array. The default sort order is ascending, built upon converting the elements into strings, then comparing their sequences of UTF-16 code units values.

.sort((firstValue,secondValue) => {
    compare firstValue to secondValue

#

before i use const PREFIX then i delete it and switch it with settings.json along side with other information.

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 8:54 PM

well your code is looking for PREFIX.length

which means its looking for PREFIX

somewhere in your code

#

if you deleted it, then it will not find it

and throw the error

so i need to like readded it ?

the const PREFIX ?.

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 8:55 PM

or change how you use it

#

you defined your file as settings right?

#

so make your code look for a prefix in there

instead of looking for PREFIX

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 8:57 PM

so i added const PREFIX : '?'; below const settings : require ('./settings.json);

For some reason when I try to do:

            con.query(`SELECT * FROM fireballcool WHERE id = '${message.author.id}'`, (err, rows) => {
                if (err) throw err;
                const [ row ] = rows;
                if (row && row.time + 1 <= ts) {
                    con.query(`DELETE FROM fireballcool WHERE id = '${message.author.id}'`, (err, rows) => {
                        if (err) throw err;
                        const role = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === "Cooldown");
                        message.member.roles.remove(role);
                    })
                }
            })

It never removes my role. However, in my MySQL database it says the correct numbers. The variable ts is correct to my knowledge, but the role is never taken away. My bot has full permissions and can add/take away roles from my alt which just joined the server. What is going wrong?

                .setFooter(copyright);
                await message.delete();
                return await message.channel.send(embed);

@viral spade if you want to future-proof as much as possible, the best thing would be to make your own library, for the lack of better alternatives, or switch languages lol

#

pretty much all big shots have their own home-made libraries designed specifically for their use cases

viral spade May 16, 2020, 9:46 PM

#

on another language is there a future-proof out of the box framework?

#

making your own framework, would this in a simple case mean fork f.e. the discord.js repo and cut off functionalities/reduce cache, that i dont need? Or are you talking about completely from scratch?

modest maple May 16, 2020, 9:49 PM

Just not using discord.js would be a good start lmao

modest maple May 16, 2020, 9:50 PM

Unless it's d.js, making your own lib without knowing exactly what you're doing it'll probably be slower than the main libs

white anvil May 16, 2020, 9:51 PM

#

detritus client has completely modular cache

#

all parts can be controlled independantly

#

eris or detritus are both good libs tbh, my only problem with eris is the shit typings and how the client is structured

modest maple May 16, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

Eris is designed to be more lightweight

#

It just expects you know how Todo shit yourself

white anvil May 16, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

detritus client is middleman

#

but it still requires you to have knowledge of shit

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 9:53 PM

@white anvil have you tried benchmarking detritus? because from what i've seen, their implementation of zlib is async, which is considered not ideal

white anvil May 16, 2020, 9:53 PM

i havent benchmarked it

#

honestly if u want to know more about the lib its probably best to ask cake in the support server

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

The whole point of clustering is it allows scaling across multiple processes and machines

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

yes

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

Every big bot that uses clustering doesn't use the in-built system

#

Cuz it's fucking shit as fuck

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

because there isnt any

#

detritus provides cluster client which is fully featured and also comes with cluster manager

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

If you're going to cluster properly K8s or Swarm are some of the best methods

#

No harm in using a 3rd party lib when it does it better than the main lol

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 10:04 PM

#

there is no proper multi-machine solution

#

thats why im making one

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:04 PM

#

~~other than docker swarm or just using k8s~~

gloomy imp May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

I have low hopes for this question but....

is it possible to check if a channel id is in a certain server

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

Iterate through all channels ig

gloomy imp May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

discord.js

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

that wont work if you dont have a complete cache

gloomy imp May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

do what

#

tifflesthisisfine

pure lion May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

uh

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

channels are always cached by default

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

^

pure lion May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

how do i make my bot editable through commands in the server?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

there is rest endpoint to fetch all guild channels

pure lion May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

dumb question and stuff

gloomy imp May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

maybe I'll try doing it by name instead of id...

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

there is?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

yes

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

Yeah

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

since when

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

Idk why you would use it tho

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

#

i would use it if i wanted all channels

#

since i dont have a cache

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

I'm only worrying about cache when the bot starts using 30GB ram lol

#

<5GB is good enough for me at 55k

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

well im not rich so

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

How i use sort() to the command top?

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

So when we speak of frameworks to be better for large bots, are we speaking mostly about ram or are other resources even more important to save with a better framework?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

using 30gb with no cache is exponentially bigger in terms of guild count than 30gb with cache

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:09 PM

#

Also @quartz kindle You say there are no good multi machine scaling options, have you actually looked at kubernceles statefulsets

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:09 PM

#

@viral spade its kinda subjective

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

Most big bots don't even use a framework lol

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

depends what u want to do

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

statistics, which means i need most of the data cached

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

Ngl

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

in which case there will be little difference between frameworks

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

Stop using mysql

#

Lol

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

mysql is fine

#

whats the issue with it

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

Mysql is fucking awful until it got to V8 where it's only just caught upto postgres in speed

#

And postgres still crushes mysql in features and power

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

yo answer his question mysql is my babe

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

mysql scales rlly well

#

sure postgres is better but mysql isnt bad

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:12 PM

#

There is litterally no reason to not use postgres over mysql

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:12 PM

#

yeah but he said whats the issue with mysql

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:12 PM

#

okay @modest maple i will do

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

Lacks utility, speed, security etc...

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

mysql can be considered faster for a lot of operations

#

and is simpler to use bcuz no vacuum

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

I'd hardly say postgres is hard to use lmao

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

guy didnt say postgres is hard to use he said mysql is simpler

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

a lot more web developers use mysql because it doesnt have features that they dont need

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

TL;DR: MySQL is a bad database. Don't use it unless you have literally no other option.

Why shouldn't I use MySQL?

MySQL has no transactional DDL. This means that if you fuck up creating a table in the middle of a migration, you cannot rollback easily.
MySQL has a lot of security issues. New zero-day vulnerabilities are found regularly.
MySQL is owned by Oracle.
MySQL is slow. It beats Postgres etc at some things, but once you move beyond basic queries it begins to slog.
MySQL disconnects you randomly. Unless you setup your connection specially, it will break regularly.
MySQL allows all kinds of insane data to be inserted. '0000-00-00' is valid in MySQL.
MySQL is not ANSI compliant. You have to turn it on; even then it isn't fully compliant.
MySQL has no feature advantage over other databases; PostgreSQL has many more useful features (such as RETURNs).

There is no reason to use MySQL over PostgreSQL, or even sqlite3. See also:

Terrible choices: MySQL - The terrible pitfalls I've gotten myself ...

The terrible pitfalls I've gotten myself into while using MySQL — I've used MySQL for a while now, and there were lots of surprising things I needed to cater for. This is from a Django and MySQL 5.5 perspective...

#

It's a old review but still relevant

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

security issues arent a problem if u arent a moron

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

MySQL disconnects you randomly. Unless you setup your connection specially, it will break regularly.
that's why we have connection pooling

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

lol most of whats written there isnt true (anymore). its from 2014..

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

yea

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

Alot is still relevant especially speed

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

mysql is a lot faster now than it was

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

Only took upto v8

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

so

#

who cares

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

Where it still lacks behind postgres

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

depends what you're doing

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

i dont care how long it took them...

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

I do lmao

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

mysql also has some better misc stuff like query caching

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

fuck does it mean to you, we're comparing the latest of both

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:19 PM

#

Postgres has query caching? Lol

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:20 PM

#

i agree postgres is better for complex query but in terms of web development where queries are normally simple it can be faster

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:20 PM

#

For simple sites sure

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:21 PM

#

For web development mysql is absolutely the choice

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:21 PM

#

But the utility of postgres makes up for the slight speed decrease

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:21 PM

#

hardly

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:21 PM

#

I will take postgres over mysql every time

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:21 PM

#

thats still very subjective

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:22 PM

#

If you're only doing light stuff you might aswell use a nosql dB all things considered

#

Which is what mongo is litterally based around (web development)

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:23 PM

#

nosql databases are usually harder to use

#

i dont rlly see the appeal tbh

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:23 PM

#

harder???

sudden geyser May 16, 2020, 10:23 PM

#

sounds like a flame war is emerging

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:23 PM

#

man i can write javascript instead of selling my soul and a kidney to satan and writing some broken english

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

lmao

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

it takes like 3 days to learn sql

slim umbra May 16, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

lmao

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

its declarative for a reason

#

lol

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

Not proper sql

#

There's the 'i can do some querys' sql

#

And then there's actually properly knowing it

sudden geyser May 16, 2020, 10:25 PM

#

instead of selling my soul and a kidney to satan and writing some broken english
still sounds like javascript

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:25 PM

#

lol tbh

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:25 PM

#

True

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

maybe i dont like mongo because its actually mongoose thats crap

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

CPP is just selling your soul to satan then bending over for the pitch fork

valid frigate May 16, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

mfw mongoose

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

mongoose is useless unless you absolutely need the schemas (you dont)

valid frigate May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

for somebody who uses typescript it might make sense

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

How i use sort() to the command top?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

people told me to use it and then i ran into problems no one knew how to fix

valid frigate May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

you have some sort of type definition

#

but

#

dont really use it anymore

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

so i switched to postgres

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

Yesssssssss

valid frigate May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

purely for the reason that mongoose broke

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

Convert the man

#

Tbf mongo is slower byitself

#

But mixed with a cache db

#

It starts to crush SQL for short sharp querys

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

it may be slow but goddamn is it easy

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

Which is why it's got popular

#

Reddis + Mongo or -insert mongo fork here I've forgotten the name- is a very popular combo

#

And pretty quick

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

reddis moment

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

just use redis as your db

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:30 PM

#

if you dont use https://www.npmjs.com/package/db-discord then dont speak to me

npm

db-discord

db-discord is a library that uses discord guilds and text channels as databases. db-discord relies on discord.js

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:30 PM

#

Isn't that just discord.js tho -> just one really baddddd cache db

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

i keep meaning to implement redis but my lazy ass is too lazy

river vapor May 16, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

lazy guy's lazy cant blame him

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

detritus comes with pretty nice cache solution so i use that for discord bot instead

#

but redis would be ideal

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

i dont know what i would use redis for tbh

#

i can just query my db

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

cache all the things

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

You don't rlly need it unless shit gets big

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

just cache ur entire db on identify

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

We use it on one of the 30k/s APIs

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

if i didnt care about cache i would still be letting my bot use 1.7gb ram with d.js

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

how many guilds

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

600-700 at the time

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

lol 1.7gb for that

#

what a joke

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

fun fact, the bot needs basically no caching to operate

#

sliced down to 50-60mb with custom lib

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

my bot would benefit from cache but i sacrifice cpu time for better memory usage

#

i use about 50mb also lol

#

the only thing i cache is messages

#

and that had hard limit of 100 items

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

How can I put clickable links in the footer of a embed?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

you cant

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

@earnest phoenix dont think you can in a footer

earnest phoenix May 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

i couldve sworn you used to be able to but alright

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

you can in description and title etc

#

you cant in footer

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

Oof

#

Memory is wayyy cheaper than cpu

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

how can i reduce the ram usage / cache size of d.js?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

you cant

#

at least not properly

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

You use erid

#

Eris*

#

Lol

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

you can tweak with ClientOptions but it wont help a lot

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

also im limited to 2gb ram

#

so its precious

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:35 PM

You add and if statement

#

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:36 PM

use a db, store disabled commands in the db, query it to check if disabled, if disabled dont run the command

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:36 PM

#

#

no

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

I mean what else is there

#

U gotta check somehow lol

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

hardcode them

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

So when switching from discord.js to eris, is there some major things to consider? Whats the biggest differences?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

eris is more low level and has less helper features

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

documentation is a headache

wise quartz May 16, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

the thing works rn but.. well almost works. the disable/enable commands can disable and enable any command even if its not in my bot and adding a check for 58 commands is quite hard so i tried making a list and checking if the command name is in that list but it didn't work. (Python: GWcodesPython )

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:39 PM

can you give example of a helper feature?

#

its mind blowing how many people complain in eris channel in dapi that there is no User.tag

modest maple May 16, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

You cant

#

Don't even try running a music bot on a free host

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

i love the freedom of writing my own library. sure it comes with a lot of headaches but the freedom it gives me with what i want to integrate and in what way is totally worth it

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

i wouldnt do it from scratch

#

if i made my own shit i'd use a premade gateway implementation

#

bcuz lazy

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

gateway is easy

#

until you get token reset at 5 am

#

because you yeeted your bot in a reconnect loop

#

the hard part for me was ratelimiting

#

but i stole some code from github and its nice now

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

im talking about https://github.com/detritusjs/client-socket

GitHub

detritusjs/client-socket

A pure-Typescript library to interact with Discord's Gateway - detritusjs/client-socket

#

very low level socket

#

doesnt do ratelimiting or anything for you

hardy vector May 16, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

what are websockets

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

its just a wrapper over the gateway

#

websocket is a method of establishing a persistent connection between two machines over network

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

@hardy vector sockets over the web

#

isnt a websocket just a fancy tcp socket anyways

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:44 PM

#

So eris is mostly better because i can disable caches?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:44 PM

#

eris still doesnt provide great cache control

#

its better but its not great

#

eris is better for other reasons though

#

it has way less bloat

viral spade May 16, 2020, 10:45 PM

#

so why does discord.js not add this?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:45 PM

#

because it sucks

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:46 PM

#

i had to work with discord.js earlier today and im pretty sure it decreased my life span by at least 5 years

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/examples/embed

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.

and akairo

#

thats for TS tho

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

that’s a framework

#

not a library

hardy vector May 16, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

oh

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

well

#

is there any other javascript frameworks for big bots

white anvil May 16, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

in that case eris and detritus aren’t frameworks

#

they are libraries

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

correct

viral spade May 16, 2020, 11:02 PM

#

so in eris, is caching of everything on by default and i cut it off, or the other way around?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

caching is enabled by default

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

@fickle arch try to deconstruct the embed object by doing send.channel.send({embed});

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

im not sure how modular it truly is but it’s not very

#

Detritus is best option if you want full control

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

what exactly does detritus offer over discord.js?

#

just curious

viral spade May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

how will it affect the way i write the bot when using detritus? (except from not haveing an embed class)?

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

oh

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

better caching, better api implementation, less bloat, better stock command client

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

its a typescript library

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

@steel drum ok gonna tried it.

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

@viral spade all libraries are different

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

i was considering refactoring my project

mossy vine May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

@steel drum better cache control, less bloat from what i see

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

to typescript

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

you won’t write any two libraries the same way

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

might look into this

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

@steel drum detritus can be written with js

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

i was considering typescript anyways

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

it’s a ts library but you can use js when implementing it

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 11:05 PM

#

so i just added guild.channels.fetch() to my djs framework, because for some reason djs doesnt have it lmao

fickle arch May 16, 2020, 11:05 PM

#

still the same @steel drum

steel drum May 16, 2020, 11:05 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

try making const into let?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:05 PM

#

honestly the callback based command client in detritus is dope

#

very easy to extend

viral spade May 16, 2020, 11:07 PM

#

whats the biggest types of caches that should be considered deactivating, if you dont need them?

white anvil May 16, 2020, 11:08 PM

#

presences

quartz kindle May 16, 2020, 11:08 PM

#

presences can be controlled via intents

#

so technically they can be disabled on any lib
