@clear wraith there is a test feature on dbl website. your users dont have to actually vote for you to test ๐

i fixed the status, but can someone tell me how to make a role for the bot
lyric mountain
a role?
fresh hatch
like when he join in server to get it auto like MEE6, role Mee6
lyric mountain
just give a role to the member inside a join event
fresh hatch
Noo, i mean role SyntaBOT and when he join the server to get it without my touching in the settings
quartz kindle
you need to define the permissions your bot needs in the invite link
hasty sparrow
The bot receives a role automatically based off of it's permissions
lyric mountain
ah, that's given to your bot whenever you invite it with at least one permission
quartz kindle
use an invite generator
fresh hatch
omg, im really that much stupid ? ๐
neat ingot
oooohh, i was actually wondering about that. my latest bot didnt get a custom role when i added it to my main server, was wondering why. guess its cause he asked for no perms ๐
dire obsidian
somebody know how the bot send a DM message to people who voted?
neat ingot
pretty sure you just .send() to the specific user rather than a channel
something like client.users.cache.get('userid').send('you voted')
dire obsidian
ok
tired nimbus
When I awaitMessages, it seems that the content it gets is toLowerCase. how can I keep the caps? Djs v11
neat ingot
you define the webhook url you want in the config for the dbl api
and on the bot edit page on dbl site
quartz kindle
the url depends on where your bot is hosted
clear wraith
I can't understand where to get it...
quartz kindle
if your bot is hosted on a vps, the url is the vps ip address and the port you define in your dblapi.js
neat ingot
ewww, gforce update for valorant :/
any valorant api yet? like for getting game stats?
google says 'not yet' ๐

For a discord.js statistics bot, that records textmessages etc. i want to keep a log of the sent messages ([guildId, channelId, userId, data]).
But as i dont want to call the database (mysql) every time a message is written, i want to cache the changes and flush them together in one transaction.
How should i store the cache for these statistics? I was thinking attach a Map to the client object. Then i could also easily periodically retrieve the data in the shardingManager and even send all shards in one transaction.
cinder patio
You could write all entries to the database when it exceeds a certain amount
viral spade
okey and add it to the client object is safe? using the sharding manager to collect the data from all shards for this node is also ok?
quartz kindle
should be fine, if you dont accidentally duplicate data across shards
earnest phoenix
Is it possible to check if a user is joined to a server by a self-created Invite-Link?
"The reason is" + reason ? `${reason}` : 'no reason' + "by" + message.author.tag
// This will return
// 1. The reason is ${reason}
// 2. The reason is no reason by ${message.author.tag}
// But I want it to be
// 1. The reason is ${reason} by ${message.author.tag}
// 2. The reason is no reason by ${message.author.tag}
How can I do that?
short idol
hello I will have a question for you EVERYONE after 2 days, if we do not pass v12 the boots will close this truth

hi back! it's about mongoose again.
I created a variable with a model that is supposed to be saved in the 'crumble' collection. BUT in Mongo Compass, I don't see anything. But when I use the <model>.find() method, I can see all the things I added with the model! Why isn't that displayed in Compass? js var userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({ id: String, tag: String, coins: Number, xp: Number, bio: String, msgCount: Number, meanMsgCount: Number, meanWordsCount: Number, dblVotes: Array, upvotes: Number, givenUpvotes: Number, lastUpvote: Number }) js const userModel = mongoose.model('crumble', userSchema) ```js
async function updateUser(userID) {
let user = await client.users.fetch(userID)
let newUser = new userModel({
tag: user.tag,
coins: 0,
xp: 0,
bio: ``,
msgCount: 0,
meanMsgCount: 0,
meanWordsCount: 0,
dblVotes: 0,
upvotes: 0,
givenUpvotes: [],
lastUpvote: 0
})
newUser.save(function (err, newUser) {
console.log(`user saved in crumble.`)
console.log(userModel.find()) // THE PART I WAS TALKING ABOUT RIGHT ABOVE
})
}```
viral spade
ok nice.
about the datastructure.. i could make an array of objects,with the fields guildId, channelId, userId, data.
However, i of course want to add the stats from the same user to his already existing entry in the array. So if i do it that way, wouldnt it cause too much searches, if every messages need to search the whole datastructure?
To solve this i could maybe make an object, where each field is one entry, or a map, whereas the key of that field is string concatenated guildId+userId+channelId. Would that be faster?
Also, i could simply add every single event to my cache, without stacking events from the same user/channel (and have duplicate keys in my cache), and do the sum up at the point of saving the cache to database?
earnest phoenix
Is it possible to check if a user is joined to a server by a self-created Invite-Link?
spice smelt
@earnest phoenix , the Discord API doesn't provide this data as far as I know.
neat ingot
@spice smelt did you refresh your compass after adding the data? it doesnt auto refresh unfortunately
also, you can design your schema like this:
notice: i have required fields, and default values. so when im creating an instance of a model i dont need to provide all fields, it will auto populate them with default values. i only need to give the required fields ๐
(if i do give a value for a property that has a default value, the given value will overwrite the default)

What's that unsend message method
quartz kindle
@wicked pivot did you just copy and paste it or what? also Lost's code has a typo
if you just copy and paste then it wont work
and your JSON.stringify() is wrong
@slender thistle
it just deletes it without a reason
lmao
mossy vine
hang on why is it .call
slender thistle
neat ingot
i had a feeling it was gonna be a poorly worded 'delete' function ๐
quartz kindle
The call() method calls a function with a given this value and arguments provided individually.
mossy vine
but... why not just .deleteMessage(args)
neat ingot
apply() does the same but you provide arguments in the form of an array.

t appears your bot, SyntaX Bot, has connected to Discord more than 1000 times within a short time period. Since this kind of behavior is usually a result of a bug we have gone ahead and reset your bot's token.

@quartz kindle Hello <@USERIDHERE>, and welcome!

of course, you need to put a valid id
you can get the author's id from message.author as i said

Hello <@${ message.author.id }>, and welcome!

@scenic kelp so I didnโt know in what chat to ask this, but Iโm working on a moderation bot... and if it gets accepted, do you guys want me to disable it here? (Iโm not done yet and havenโt uploaded it yet but just a heads up)
scenic kelp
there's no need to disable it here unless it attempts to post messages without a user's input
mental furnace
Well it deletes messages.... thatโs the thing
scenic kelp
It won't be able to delete messages here
mental furnace
Probably you arenโt even gone give that perm to a bot tho and ye I tought that
Ok
Thanks
Now that I think about it, it does send messages... like if I say a swear word it sends a message to not use that word again but it does delete that message after 5 sec

you will need to disable that for this server
mental furnace
Ok
Was probably gonna disable it anyway cause this server spammed my other bot for some reason and idk why lol

Hi, A Quick Question. I made a code that if the Voicechannel is empty it should leave it but that doesnt work.
Here is the Code:
let voiceconnection = "false"
setInterval(function(){
let members = 0;
client.channels.cache.get("714808804294000672").members.forEach(m => {
if(m.user.bot) return;
if(m.id == bot.user.id) return;
members++
})
console.log(members)
console.log(voiceconnection)
if(members < 0 && voiceconnection == "true"){
console.log("false")
client.channels.cache.get("714808804294000672")
.leave()
voiceconnection = "false"
}
if(members > 0 && voiceconnection == "false"){
client.channels.cache.get("714808804294000672")
.join()
.then(connection => {
var playing = new Discord.MessageEmbed()

})}
}, 3000)```no error given. nothing
earnest phoenix
let user = message.mentions.members.first();
${user.tag}``` idk why but the output is undefined when the message gets sent.nvm
it's supposed to be users not members smh
@earnest phoenix user.user.tag
No?
I just said I realized I put members instead of users
sterile minnow
quartz kindle
@sterile minnow why are you using an interval?
there are much better ways to do that
and you're checking if members is smaller than 0, but i dont see how it could ever be smaller than 0
sterile minnow
Oooh. Cuz its a bit laggy
quartz kindle
you should be using the voiceStateUpdate event instead of that interval
and you can check the member's size, no need to count them

does sharding fix that?
unborn steeple
There is so many ways, im just wondering which is the best option.

Sharding just splits your bot in N versions of itself, each dealing with their own slices of guilds

@earnest phoenix id change my token now if i was you
earnest phoenix
i did
winter basalt
ah ok
earnest phoenix
wait but did i do the coding right?
winter basalt
i think so
earnest phoenix
wait it keeps saying
Unexpected token, expected ; (16:9)
so is the .env a module for discord .js can i install it with npm then alter my code to load it from the .env file instead of .json?
earnest phoenix
oh sweet ty
i havnt done it yet but i will soon , can i just leave rest of data in the .json like prefix yes?
because im planning on using api's for other things
lyric mountain
An api for prefix?
earnest phoenix
no , but what im asking is can i not just leave my prefix in the .json too or im going to have to change alot of code
i have it load commands from separate files ie the functions are all seperate and all depends on the .json for the prefix
im sure ill figure it out thanks though
clear wraith
Ok so... I just coded a messageUpdate and a messageDelete command for my events folder. And when i go to edit a message it spams that I edited the message 200000 times. Why?
earnest phoenix
no break?
clear wraith
No. It doesn't stop
It keeps doing that, and then it stops after it sends it 2 million times
earnest phoenix
2 possibilities
- Discord has a seizure
- You misconfigured the event handler and edit the log message, resulting in the bot entering a infinite loop
clear wraith
Ill grab the code
This is what is in the Index.js file for both of them.
require("./events/messageUpdate")(oldMessage, newMessage);
});
client.on("messageDelete", async (message) => {
require(".events/messageDelete")(message);
});
That's right... Isn't it?
final jay
:p
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix can you send us the code for it (please make sure to censor all important information such as bot token and api keys please)
ok
so we can take a look on what's wrong
if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) return;
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "ping")) {
message.channel.send("pong!");
} else
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "foo")) {
message.channel.send("bar!");
}
});
client.login("SuperSecretBotTokenHere");
client.on("ready", () => {
console.log("I am ready!");
});
client.on("message", (message) => {
if (message.content.startsWith("ping")) {
message.channel.send("pong!");
}
});
client.login("token");
client.on("message", (message) => {
// This code runs when the event is triggered
});
client.on("message", (message) => {
// This code runs when the event is triggered
});
i gtg so i will be back tmr
uh
this is wrong on so many fucking levels
clear wraith
@earnest phoenix here is the messageUpdate file.
const { MessageEmbed } = require("discord.js");
module.exports = async (oldMessage, newMessage) => {
let embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setTitle("Message Edited")
.setColor("GREEN")
.setDescription(
`**${oldMessage.author.tag} Edited a message in <#${oldMessage.channel.id}>**`
)
.addField("Old Message", oldMessage.content, true)
.addField("New Message", newMessage.content, true);
let channel = oldMessage.guild.channels.cache.find(
ch => ch.name === "โserver-log"
);
if (!channel) return;
channel.send(embed);
};
can you help me tmr @earnest phoenix
I can not
but this can
@clear wraith that looks okay to me
then its just discord having a seizure
try killing all processes your bot runs on and completly restart it
clear wraith
So.. I can't do anything about it?
clear wraith
So... Redo the Index.js file?
earnest phoenix
restart everything and hope
clear wraith
Or restart it in the terminal
earnest phoenix
restart the node process
clear wraith
Ok
earnest phoenix
like kill off node entirely and start it over again
wanton nova
this might seem like a weird question, but does anyone know a good solution on how to make a countdown?
i dont want to edit the message every second for obvious reasons
and i tried using an emoji for a countdown
only problem is that if they leave the channel the emoji resets
and i cant really find any consistent gif designs cause I have different times for countdowns
earnest phoenix
you can change the interval of the message being edited
warm marsh
You could edit the message in jumps, E.g. every 10 seconds until you get to like 10 then use a gif
earnest phoenix
it counts down every second but only edits it every 10 secs or so
wanton nova
its a 30 second countdown
ah
well i guess doing 30, then 20, then 10, then (maybe) 3, 2, 1 would be a good idea
im not sure about the ratelimits though
earnest phoenix
more to do with html & php, but how can you have a file that can only be downloaded if you're logged in?

next: {

cinder oxide
next.children[0]?
earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix check if the user is logged in and the session key is valid, then send the file
else send a null byte or send nothing
or send status 403
no but
if they just visit the link, for example text.exe
you mean per ftp server
or per express server
with express you can check if a cookie was sent, if yes, check that cookie
if not, 403
mk ill try that

let urlRegex = /(https?:\/\/[^ ]*)/;
let url = string.match(urlRegex)[0];
console.log(url.substr(0, url.length - 8))```why not just split?
magic jackal
idk that is why I asked
pale vessel
so basically you just want Lang=en?
magic jackal
I want to remove that part
pale vessel
oh
magic jackal
I just dont know regex that well
pale vessel
would split("?")[0] work?
magic jackal
yea, should work fine
I just worry if its gonna contain it anywhere else in the link by mistake
but its a url so it shouldnt
pale vessel
you should try to avoid regex since it tends to be slow

Do you have to put the ID?

no, d.py will magically guess what channel you need

of course you need the id why wouldnt you ๐ฉ

Alright to confirm
lmao, machine learning algorithms yes.
I'll also remember to use my neutron cyclotron to calculate the derivatives of the acceleration of the third moon of jupiter as well
ALright fr, tho, I was thinking if it was possible to use a name to identify it
but its only possible for using the Channel id right?
mossy vine
idk how d.py handles things but you might be able to fetch the channel from cache by name
desert phoenix
What about
I was thinking that some bots have this sort of commandline that allows for the user
to specifically set a channel

you will need a loop with indexes and the modulo operator

why +=2
@tight plinth trying to split it every 2 words
earnest phoenix
no it doesnt
earnest phoenix
i +=2?
quartz kindle
you dont want to skip indexes, you want them all, else you will be skipping words, not putting them in new lines
tight plinth
i>text.length
quartz kindle
what you want is, if the index reaches an amount that can be divided by 2, then you add the new line character "\n"
otherwise you dont add it

if you host a bot on glitch, is anyone then able to view the source code for it?
mossy vine
yes
opaque seal
How do you guys handle custom prefixes?
Do you query the database each time a message is sent and check if it starts with the prefix that's on the database?
fallow steppe
So I'm using glitch to code a bot, and uptime robot to host them 24/7. However, whenever I shut down the glitch project, the bot stays up for a while and shuts down. I correctly provided the live app link to uptime robot but still is not working. Any ideas? ( if this belongs here )
pale vessel
does the bot still respond after being shut down?
neat ingot
@opaque seal yes. I check for guild specific custom config when each message is sent, if none is found it uses the default config
opaque seal
Doesn't that lead to too many disk operations?
neat ingot
no, because i implemented a cachebase, which is basically a wrapper around my database that stores objects via id (guild id in this case). my cachebase will either give me existing data (and update the time that data was last used), or it will fetch the data from database, and set the time the data was used. then, i use my cachebase as the database, and fetch data from that. so really, it only reads from the database when it needs to get new guild information, then it holds it in memory until it hasnt been used for x minutes (configurable).the cachebase saves the data to database each minute, and then clears any that are past the time limit
tbh, its just a decently written database manager. i just call it a cachebase as its like, the main brain of the db, and i care about file hierarchy in my directories, and c is higher in the list than d. I could have easily called it datacache, or db_cache, or w.e ๐
quartz kindle
@opaque seal you dont need anything that complicated, it can be a lot simpler for only prefixes
neat ingot
๐
quartz kindle
the general idea is: when you receive a message, check if you have a prefix already stored somewhere, if not, get it from the database and store it somewhere for future uses
with somewhere being a variable, array, map, object, etc inside the program
opaque seal
Yeah I know what cashing is
quartz kindle
cashing lmao
neat ingot
cachรฉing
quartz kindle
hahah
quartz kindle
it shouldnt be hard to implement
neat ingot
tbh, just read it from the database each message for now
quartz kindle
it can be as simple as a 1-2 liner
neat ingot
yea, it doesnt need to be over the top
my solution is for portability, its a module i wrote that ive used in a few projects
opaque seal
No that's not the problem, the problem is that it would require RAM and it would still query the database a lot if the bot is in many servers
neat ingot
not much ram tbh
opaque seal
tbh, just read it from the database each message for now
@neat ingot atm this is causing my bot CPU usage to go above 100
fallow steppe
@pale vessel no it does not
opaque seal
Wasn't only that there reason, I was querying the db on the message event and on the command file too, now I changed it so the message event passes the db values it got to the command
what database are you using?
@neat ingot mongoDB
fallow steppe
It shuts down completely, won't come back until I re-open the project
neat ingot
oh, mongo โค๏ธ
opaque seal
Should switch to SQL in the future
quartz kindle
imagine you have 5000 servers. you receive messages from 500 of them over a couple minutes, you will make 500 requests to the database, yes, but its a simple read request which is usually done in 1 millisecond. then all those 500 guilds will never need to touch the database anymore for prefix lookup, because they will be stored in the ram. how much ram would a prefix cost? its a simple 1-2 char string, 500 prefixes will not cost more than 1-2kb ram
neat ingot
no no, mongo is scalable af!!!
^
i use mongodb/mongoose as part of my database/cache system ๐
pale vessel
@fallow steppe then it's just discord being slow at updating the bot status. your bot is actually offline

it is not performant at all.
quartz kindle
xD
neat ingot
so, i noticed that my minigame bot has a little bit of lag it seems when more than one person is playing it at a time. is there some issue with awaiting messages/reactions from multiple users at the same time within discord js?
or perhaps it was due to awaiting multiple messages in the same channel?
golden condor
It could be, maybe a more economic thing to use would be a message collector
neat ingot
isnt that what await reactions/messages does behind the scenes anyway?
golden condor
Yeah
You could make it so it doesn't just await 1 message, but instead waits as many as you need
earnest phoenix
or you can build your own much lighter solution by using one single listener and your own collection of messages that need listening
then simply check for those in the event
