development

[balmy knoll]

Yes

[nocturne grove]

okay

[balmy knoll]

This for example

[nocturne grove]

oh in the API it's called news, I'm sorry

[balmy knoll]

No problem

[nocturne grove]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/NewsChannel there's a send() method here, so yes, you can (as long as it has perms of course)

[balmy knoll]

Thanks

[nocturne grove]

No problem

[balmy knoll]

Wait

Send is to send message in this channel

I mean this

[opaque seal]

For how much time should I keep a prefix in the cache?

[nocturne grove]

@balmy knoll you meant reacting with an emoji?

[opaque seal]

For how much time should I keep a prefix in the cache?
I thought about 5 mins

[quartz kindle]

@opaque seal forever, as long as it remains unchanged

[nocturne grove]

I guess that's possible, I see no reason why it shouldn't work if a bot can send a message in such a channel

[quartz kindle]

if someone changes the prefix, then you remove it so it can update

[opaque seal]

Dosen't that make the ram go crazy?

[quartz kindle]

no

as i said before, it will use about 1-2kb of ram per 500 guilds

[opaque seal]

I'm trusting you then

[quartz kindle]

so you can slap it with 5 million guilds and it will still use only 20mb of ram

[balmy knoll]

@nocturne grove I mean publish a message in a news channel

[opaque seal]

so you can slap it with 5 million guilds and it will still use only 20mb of ram
dope

[nocturne grove]

@balmy knoll that's the send() method

newsChannel.send('Hey!');```

[opaque seal]

let guildID = message.guild.id;
    let prefix='$';
    let data;
    // Prefixes
    let prefixes = client.prefixes;

    if (!prefixes.has(guildID)) {
        prefixes.set(guildID, new Discord.Collection());
    }
    const guildPrefix = prefixes.get(guildID);
    if (guildPrefix) {
        prefix = guildPrefix.prefix;
    }else{
        await client.guildSchema.findOne({guildID: guildID}, (_,res) =>{
            data = res;
        })
        if(data) prefix = data.prefix;
        else return;
    }
    guildPrefix.set(prefix);```
I've tried that so far, how does it look @quartz kindle ?

[quartz kindle]

you're only ever gonna have 1 prefix per guilds right?

so you dont need a collection

[opaque seal]

yeah

Is using Discord collection a bad idea?

[quartz kindle]

yes

collections are for storing lists of items, you're only storing 1 item

[opaque seal]

'cause I remodeled the cooldown stuff that the discord.js guide gives

collections are for storing lists of items, you're only storing 1 item
So...uhm, what's the best variable for that?

[quartz kindle]

a simple string

[opaque seal]

Because I need the guild ID and the prefix

[digital ibex]

@earnest phoenix do u know what u need to do?

[quartz kindle]

if(!client.prefixes.has(guildID)) {
  let prefixInDB = await client.guildSchema.FindOne(guildID) // or however you use this
  if(!prefixInDB) {
      client.guildsChema.SaveOne(,guildID,"$") // or whatevr you use to store
      client.prefixes.set(guildID,"$");
  } else {
      client.prefixes.set(guildID,prefixInDB);
  }
}
let prefix = client.prefixes.get(guildID)

[opaque seal]

oh I thought you meant the prefixes variable to not be a collection

[quartz kindle]

client.prefixes can stay a collection, since it holds multiple items

[opaque seal]

yeah yeah I got it

[quartz kindle]

but client.prefixes.set(guildID) doesnt need to be a collection

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix do u know what u need to do?
@digital ibex no

[opaque seal]

yeuah

So it's like an object with GuildID and prefix, guildID and prefix and so on

[digital ibex]

for sharding, u just change ur clients options

thats all

[earnest phoenix]

I mean how do I get the guild count across all shards

also I use eris-sharder for shards

[opaque seal]

if(!client.prefixes.has(guildID)) {
  client.prefixes.set(guildID,"$");
  client.guildsChema.SaveOne() // or whatevr you use to store
}
let prefix = client.prefixes.get(guildID)

If the prefix is not in the collection I need to get it from the database thought

not just set it as "$"

[quartz kindle]

@opaque seal see updated message

[opaque seal]

The prefix is always in the DB thought.
I've done that

// Prefixes cache (not cash lol)
    let prefixes = client.prefixes;

    if (!prefixes.has(guildID)) {
        await client.guildSchema.findOne({guildID: guildID}, (_,res) =>{
            data = res;
        })
        if(data) prefix = data.prefix;
        else return;
        prefixes.set(guildID, prefix);
    }
    const guildPrefix = prefixes.get(guildID);
    if (guildPrefix) {
        prefix = guildPrefix.prefix;
    }```

[quartz kindle]

the prefix is not always in the db

unless you add it immediately on the guildCreate event

[opaque seal]

It is in my Database

Yeah I do that

[quartz kindle]

alright then yes

[opaque seal]

Is that bad practice?

[quartz kindle]

no, not really, but it can be waste of cpu since a a guild can be joined and left without being used once

[opaque seal]

Usually who invites the bot wants to use it I think

There would not be many cases where that guild in the Database would not be used

[quartz kindle]

happens more often than you think, because people are stupid

but its not a problem

[opaque seal]

lol

[quartz kindle]

that wont make or break your bot

[opaque seal]

I'll keep it like that for the moment

I could do that each time a command is used it checks for the database and sees if it's set up for that guild

[quartz kindle]

my database only contains custom prefixes, not defaults

so its only ever saved if they change the default, otherwise it doesnt save anything

[opaque seal]

could be an idea

const guildPrefix = prefixes.get(guildID);
if (guildPrefix) {
        prefix = guildPrefix.prefix;
}```
How do I get the prefix of the guildPrexif?

Is it right like that?

[quartz kindle]

depends on how you set it

[opaque seal]

prefixes.set(guildID, prefix);

[quartz kindle]

and prefix is already the string, right?

[opaque seal]

yes

[quartz kindle]

then .get() already returns it

so guildPrefix is already the prefix

[opaque seal]

oh

[quartz kindle]

there is no guildPrefix.prefix

[opaque seal]

const guildPrefix = prefixes.get(guildID); if (guildPrefix) prefix = guildPrefix;

should be good

[quartz kindle]

yes

[opaque seal]

Nice, thank you for your help

[nocturne grove]

my database only contains custom prefixes, not defaults
@quartz kindle I got that too. Do you also delete the prefix from the database when they change it back to the default?

[pure lion]

how do i get specific items from a dir file?

[quartz kindle]

@nocturne grove actually i dont

i dont even delete it when the bot leaves the guild lmao

i should tbh

[nocturne grove]

oh lmao

I even delete the whole guild row when the prefix is set to default and nothing else is in it

[quartz kindle]

yeah im probably gonna do the same

i just hate updating the bot and having to restart it lmao

[opaque seal]

I delete all guild related info from the database when the bot leaves

[nocturne grove]

hahaha

never thought I'd inspire you xd

[quartz kindle]

i was alrady meaning to do that before, but i forgot

[nocturne grove]

[quartz kindle]

@pure lion you mean you want to read files from a directory?

[pure lion]

wait hold on

im not entirely sure

lemme get details

and try to make sense

so, say im using youtube-search for my music bot. i plug in args 1, and it console logs the entire dir. i want to access the url, but i have found no way of doing this (the url, in the console, is situated next to "url:") no idea if this is enough info or helps me in any way

[quartz kindle]

the structure is probably a json file

do you know how json works?

[pure lion]

is it bad that i dont?

[quartz kindle]

its a fairly essential thing to learn

for example

thisIsAnObject = {
  a:10,
  b:20,
  c: {
    c1:50,
    c2:60
  }
}

if you want to get 20, you do thisIsAnObject.b

if you want to get 60, you do thisIsAnObject.c.c2

[pure lion]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

[quartz kindle]

json follows the same rules

however, you need to pay attention to possible arrays mixed in

for example: ```js
thisIsAnObject = {
a:10,
b:[
{
c:10
},
{
c:20
}
]
}

you see that b starts with [ which means its an array

arrays use index numbers instead of keys

so to get the value 20, you would need to do thisIsAnObject.b[1].c

where [1] is the second item (because indexes start with 0)

[pure lion]

<writing noises>

ok

hmmmmm

[terse lynx]

how to mention user in java

like this @terse lynx

[pure lion]

hmm

java or java_script_

?

[terse lynx]

java

[pure lion]

ok

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

[quartz kindle]

you can mention a user by sending <@USERIDHERE> in any language

[pure lion]

idk how to interpret this for ytdl

[quartz kindle]

show the ytdl response

[pure lion]

well

const songInfo = await ytdl.getInfo(results);

results is the dir

but idk how to access

[quartz kindle]

console.log(results)

[terse lynx]

in js

[pure lion]

access the dir object thing (brb)

[quartz kindle]

js is javascript, not java

[pure lion]

method: 'get',
    url: 'https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?q=bloodbath&part=snippet&maxResults=1&key=AIzaSyCKC-2EQzfCqU63ZfVN1wxYOLj4z3nTtKU'

[terse lynx]

js used in BOTS

[pure lion]

thats in the console

[slender thistle]

Java is used in Discord bots too

[clever tree]

I installed the original ffmpeg in my systempaths. My bot still joins the channel but has no audio playing. He stays in for the song duration but has no sound. :/

[terse lynx]

yes

[pure lion]

I installed the original ffmpeg in my systempaths. My bot still joins the channel but has no audio playing. He stays in for the song duration but has no sound. :/
did you npm i ffmpeg-static ?

[clever tree]

yes.

[pure lion]

hmmmmmm

opus?

[quartz kindle]

@pure lion where did you get results from? that doesnt look like a ytdl response

[pure lion]

brb

[quartz kindle]

also, you should reset your youtube key

[clever tree]

@pure lion Yeah. I have node-opus and all build tools. The Bot worked fine for 2 weeks since yesterday he doesnt play audio anymore xd

[pure lion]

var search = require('youtube-search')

  var opts = {
    maxResults: 1,
    key: '(my key)'
  };

  search(args[1], opts, function(err, results) {
    if(err) return console.log(err);
   
    console.dir(results);
  
  const songInfo = await ytdl.getInfo(results);
  const song = {
    title: songInfo.title,
    url: songInfo.video_url
  };

blep

[terse lynx]

how to make bots in c++

[pure lion]

learn c++

[terse lynx]

i know

i have learned

[pure lion]

then learn c# and forget c++

[terse lynx]

why

[summer torrent]

https://github.com/zeroxs/aegis.cpp

[quartz kindle]

any reason you're using console.dir and not console.log?

[opaque seal]

How can I check if this filter did something or if the variable remained the same, do I necessary have to create another variable for comparison?
halls = halls.filter(element => message.guild.channels.cache.get(element.hall))

[pure lion]

any reason you're using console.dir and not console.log?
no idea

let me check why

[quartz kindle]

try using console.log

[terse lynx]

me?

[quartz kindle]

no, elisdia

[pure lion]

great

perfect

w o n d e r f u l

SyntaxError: await is only valid in async function

[quartz kindle]

async (err, results) => {

@opaque seal it should work

you can check if halls got any smaller afterwards

[opaque seal]

uhm

how can I do that? I mean the variable already changed I can't check its earlier status

[quartz kindle]

record its length before and after

[opaque seal]

ok

thx

[quartz kindle]

you dont even need to make a variable, you can just console.log it

[pure lion]

i know why it doesnt do console.log

[digital ibex]

hi, i'm getting this error: user_id: Value "475371795185139712,475371795185139712,475371795185139712" is not snowflake. i know what the error means and why i'm getting it, but i don't know how to fix it. the code:

[pure lion]

well, i dont

hi, i'm getting this error: user_id: Value "475371795185139712,475371795185139712,475371795185139712" is not snowflake. i know what the error means and why i'm getting it, but i don't know how to fix it. the code:
@digital ibex what are your intentions?

[digital ibex]

await client.getRESTUser(guild.moderations.filter((e) => e.kick.user === member.id).map((e) => e.kick.mod));

wut

i'm just trying to get the username of a user

using eris

[quartz kindle]

you're trying to get an array of users?

[pure lion]

h

[digital ibex]

no like, i got this, js [ kick: { user: 'id', mod: 'id', /* other data */ } ] and i'm trying to get the mod for each moderation action on a user, i'm getting the moderator

[quartz kindle]

guild.moderations seems to contain several references to the same user, so if you use .filter(), you'll get all of them

[digital ibex]

yeah, i got this, js const kick = guild.moderations.filter((e) => e.kick.user === member.id).map((e) =>`__**Kick:**__\n**Mod:** ${e.kick.mod}\n**Reason:** ${e.kick.reason}\n**Case:** #${e.kick.case}`).join('\n-\n'); but i trying to get the mod only from the mods id

everything works as expected, just not the https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/716243827286867979 bit btw

[quartz kindle]

so you want to get the mod and do what with it?

[digital ibex]

get their username

[quartz kindle]

ok, so you have several moderations with the same user, and each of those moderations can have the same mod

first you need to separate unique mods into a set or object, then you need to fetch each separate mod individually

then join the data together again

for example

let modUsernames = {};
let filtered = guild.moderations.filter(...);
for(let moderation of filtered) {
  if(!modUsernames[moderation.kick.mod]) { modUsernames[moderation.kick.mod] = (await getRESTUser(moderation.kick.mod)).username }
  let username = modUsernames[moderation.kick.mod];
}

[still merlin]

I'm trying to make a say command and I don't want to do {args[*number*]} for 998 charecters is there something similar to: {args[past_1]} that would work, to get the first argument and everything after that

[digital ibex]

oh

slice the args amazrisf

imma try it, thank u tim

[quartz kindle]

@still merlin ```js
a = [1,2,3,4,5]
a[0] = 1
a.slice(1) = [2,3,4,5]
a.slice(1).join(" ") = "2 3 4 5"

[digital ibex]

i tried using a for loop before, but then i was confused on how i can like send it to the channel

so i just used map, and now i'm confused again, how i would send it to the channel

[quartz kindle]

use the for loop to build your kick string

then send it after the loop ends

ie: ```js
kick = ""
for(bla) {
kick += "some complicated string"
}
.send(kick)

or you can use the array version like you were doing

kick = []
for(bla) {
  kick.push("some complicated string")
}
.send(kick.join("\n-\n"))

[digital ibex]

oh

[earnest phoenix]

  for extension in initial_extensions:
    try:
      bot.load_extension(extension)
    except Exception as e:
      print(f'Failed to load extension {extension}', file=sys.stderr)
      traceback.print_exc()```
```Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 23, in <module>
    traceback.print_exc()
NameError: name 'traceback' is not defined```
can someone help?

[slender thistle]

import traceback

[earnest phoenix]

@slender thistle 1 more thing i get this error everytime when using cogs can u tell me the reason
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "purge" is not found

i do have the command

it worked well in main file

[slender thistle]

You're not handling that exception

Ah

Show your code

[earnest phoenix]

main or cog?

[digital ibex]

quick question, do i have to do that for each moderation action, like, kick, ban mute etc? or can i can i do something like ```js
let moderations = [];
for (moderation of moderations) {
const kick = guild.moderations.filter((e) => e.user === member.id).map((e) => e.kick);
const ban = guild.moderations.filter((e) => e.user === member.id).map((e) => e.ban);
/* and so on */

moderations.push(__**Kick:**__\n**Mod:** ${kick.mod}); /* and other data for kick /
moderations.push(__**Ban:**__\n**Mod:** ${ban.mod}); / and other data for ban */
}
message.channel.createMessage(moderations)

so can i do something like ^^ @quartz kindle ?

instead of creating a loop for each moderation action

[slender thistle]

Both

[quartz kindle]

you will need a for loop inside a for loop

[digital ibex]

oh

[quartz kindle]

because the filtered kick and ban can still contain multiple references

[pure lion]

im lost

[quartz kindle]

or you can merge them

for example

[earnest phoenix]

from discord.ext import commands

class Moderation(commands.Cog):
  def __init__(self.bot):
    self.bot = bot

  @commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_ready(self):

    await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount+1)
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f'{ctx.author.name} purged {ctx.channel.name}', description=f'{amount}messages')
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

  @commands.command()

    embed = discord.Embed(title=f'{ctx.author.name} unbanned {member.name}', description=reason)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

def setup(bot):
  bot.add_cog(Moderation(bot))
  print('Moderation is loaded.')```

import discord

[digital ibex]

i'd prefer not to use the second one tbh, but if its easier i'm gonna use it lol

[quartz kindle]

combined = [...guild.moderations.filter(filter for kick), ...guild.moderations.filter(filter for ban)]

and then loop over combined

[earnest phoenix]

@slender thistle ^

[digital ibex]

kk, i'll try and see what happens :)

thanks again

[slender thistle]

are you sure that cog is actually loaded?

[earnest phoenix]

cog is not loaded idk why

[pure lion]

idk how to dir, send help

[quartz kindle]

did you console.log?

[earnest phoenix]

@slender thistle can u guide me with the problem

[pure lion]

lemme check if it works (again)

[earnest phoenix]

its not loading

im using cogs for first time

[slender thistle]

Can you remove the except branch from your cog-loading part?

[quartz kindle]

what does the console.log show?

[earnest phoenix]

what does the console.log show?
@quartz kindle me?

[quartz kindle]

no, elisdia

[earnest phoenix]

@slender thistle 1 sec

msg.guild.channels.cache.forEach(async (channel, id) => {

TypeError: Cannot read property 'catch' of undefined

@slender thistle should i run and try after removing that?

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix the error says catch not cache

[pure lion]

tim console.log works now

[quartz kindle]

and what does it show?

[earnest phoenix]

 try{

        msg.guild.channels.cache.forEach(async (channel, id) => {
            
        await channel.overwritePermissions([
            {
                id: muterole.id,
                deny: ['SEND_MESSAGES', 'ADD_REACTIONS', 'SPEAK']
            }
        ])
        })

    } catch (e){
        return console.log(e)
// rest of code

[pure lion]

the same as before but not nestled, all the same level

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix show the full error

[earnest phoenix]

nvm I am flipping stupid

I fixed it

thank though 😄

[quartz kindle]

@pure lion show it

[nocturne grove]

Is there some way to catch a rate limit? Or should I use client.on('rateLimit' for that, as ... .catch() doesn't catch a ratelimit?

[pure lion]

config: {
adapter: [Function: httpAdapter],
transformRequest: { '0': [Function: transformRequest] },
transformResponse: { '0': [Function: transformResponse] },

},

}

[quartz kindle]

rate limits are queued, so they wont fire errors, they will just sit in the queue and wait

you'll need the rateLimit event

[pure lion]

i just want the url

[nocturne grove]

so my bot will wait 10 minutes to update a channel name, as long as it is online?

[earnest phoenix]

How's it possible to make an embed let you download the image extension of an attached image on the embed instead of this?
(It's a generated image by an api)

[quartz kindle]

@pure lion the data you need is this

not the url

so you're doing something wrong

[pure lion]

how do i access the stuff tho

also, no clue what im doing wrong, all i want is the URL and nothing else

[quartz kindle]

that url is not the url you want

thats the url that was used to search

you want the search results, not the search itself

[slender thistle]

@earnest phoenix yeah

[quartz kindle]

the results should contain a big list of videos, their ids, authors, channels urls, etc...

[slender thistle]

restart the bot, I mean

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[pure lion]

how do

i looked through the docs, i guess i stupid

[earnest phoenix]

@slender thistle

async def ping(ctx):
  await ctx.send(f'Ping: {round(client.latency * 1000)}ms')```
``` File "main.py", line 23
    @client.command()
    ^
IndentationError: unexpected unindent```
what is even wrong here?

[nocturne grove]

oh but @quartz kindle, I actually want to know if it can rename a channel, if it's gonna queue them it will heap up multiple setName things, which is not what you want of course. You can just rename everything in one time instead if you know when it will ratelimit. I mean:

channel with name channel
t = 0: renamed 2 times
t = 60: renamed to channel60
t = 120: renamed to channel120
t = 180: renamed to channel180
after 10 minutes:
t = 600: renaming to channel60
renaming to channel120
t = 1200: renaming to channel180
I hope you get what I mean

[quartz kindle]

you need to track limits yourself

if you wait for the rateLimit event, there will be an item queued there already

[clever tree]

@slender thistle is this normal if i type : console.log(serverdispatcher.player) ?

[nocturne grove]

okay thank you. Will make a whole thing for that

now I have to find out what that "thing" should be

[high geode]

TypeError: member.send is not a function

help pls

[nocturne grove]

what is member?

[balmy knoll]

In discord.js, how can I take the last message sent by the bot in a specific channel?

[nocturne grove]

I think you should fetch messages and check for the first one you will come across that's sent by the bot

[earnest phoenix]

Any ideas about my issue?

(Scroll up if you didn't see it)

[nocturne grove]

can't you send it using some markdown or hastebin?

[earnest phoenix]

Huh?

[nocturne grove]

you sent a file

[quartz kindle]

if the api returns only image data without a file name, you need to define your own file name

[earnest phoenix]

No lol i mean like this:
So the image in the embed is the pixelated version of my avatar... But when i download it... It comes out as this

(was talking to memmo)

[quartz kindle]

files: [imagedata] -> files:[{attachment:imagedata,name:"myfile.png"}]

[nocturne grove]

oh I'm sorry I thought your file was a piece of code 🤦

[earnest phoenix]

Lol... But can i define it's name in the .setImage() as I'm using? @quartz kindle

[quartz kindle]

you define it in the attachment

then on the setImage you use the new name

attachment://myname.png

[earnest phoenix]

Oh ok

[pure lion]

<dying noises>

[earnest phoenix]

(thanks btw @quartz kindle)

[nocturne grove]

What is better/faster? A collection or an object? Or are there no performance differences?

[quartz kindle]

objects will probably be slightly faster because its a less complex structure

[nocturne grove]

okay thank you

[quartz kindle]

but the difference should be irrelevant

[nocturne grove]

I prefer objects in this case so will go for that one

[gentle minnow]

Hey

[earnest phoenix]

msg.guild.channels.cache.forEach(async (channel, id) => {
        
await channel.overwritePermissions([
{
id: muterole.id,
deny: ['SEND_MESSAGES', 'ADD_REACTIONS', 'SPEAK']
}
])
});

I'm trying to catch an error if something goes wrong while running this piece of code, but nothing seems to work - I tried try catch and also making a variable function but nothing worked

[quartz kindle]

because async forEach is a bad idea

[earnest phoenix]

it is?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

oke that might be the issue then

[quartz kindle]

async forEach spawns several copies of async functions, which are not controllable

[earnest phoenix]

ofc yes thank you

[quartz kindle]

you need a for loop

[earnest phoenix]

or remove async

i dont need it

[quartz kindle]

you do

you're using an async function

[earnest phoenix]

yes but I can make it a non aysnc one

without "await"

[quartz kindle]

channel.overwritePermissions is an async function, it returns a promise
if you use a forEach, you will be executing them all at the same time concurrently

with no respect for rate limits

[earnest phoenix]

what would a for loop in this case look like

[slender thistle]

@earnest phoenix Is the error fixed yet?

[quartz kindle]

for(let [id,channel] of msg.guild.channels.cache) {
  await channel.overwritePermissions(...)
}

as long as the parent scope is an async function, the for loop will respect the await keyword and make sure all requests are done sequentially and not concurrently

[earnest phoenix]

and how should i handle the rror

[quartz kindle]

you can handle it with a try catch or with a .catch(), doesnt really matter in this case

[earnest phoenix]

thanks man

imma try that

hopefully that works and fixes the problem 🙏

@quartz kindle thx, i will use it too..

@slender thistle nope i think the cog didnt load properly and dont think its bcos of the except

[slender thistle]

Show the code around the error

[earnest phoenix]

it worked @quartz kindle thanks

99% sure

after i remove except it shows @slender thistle

async def ping(ctx):
  await ctx.send(f'Ping: {round(client.latency * 1000)}ms')```
``` File "main.py", line 23
    @client.command()
    ^
IndentationError: unexpected unindent```
and if i add it back it tell the bot is online but the command in cog does not work

[river wing]

Does anyone know why it gives me an error of "Cannot read property 'members' of undefined"?

[nocturne grove]

@river wing replace .find by .get

[nocturne grove]

you'll use find if you want to find a channel by name, description, type etc.

[river wing]

@river wing replace .find by .get
but i still get the same error message

[slender thistle]

@earnest phoenix Show your main file

[nocturne grove]

you could also do this, but Idk why you want that:

bot.guilds.cache.find(g => g.id == 'yourID');```

then there's no guild with that id

[earnest phoenix]

yes my bot is in there

that's weird

[slender thistle]

A little hint for you: editing a mention in doesn't actually mention me so please mention me from the very start

Maybe remove the try-except completely and just load the extension

[river wing]

that's weird
@nocturne grove now it worked. but why does it always have a tendency to fail?

someone know why hosting lavalink on heroku always off in 1 or 2 hours ?

[earnest phoenix]

this prob again

[modest maple]

why would you use lavalink on heroku lmao

[slender thistle]

What does your for extension in initial_extensions: loop like rn

[modest maple]

that will never work lol

[wild mist]

It work for me

the prob just off in 1 hour

then i need to deploy again

[modest maple]

until yt bans your IP lol

@slender thistle can you help?

[slender thistle]

Assuming I know JavaScript :p

[wet iron]

well frick

[nocturne grove]

@wet iron where does it say Won't kick? Do you mean Can't find user! :angry:?

[wet iron]

no

it logs

[nocturne grove]

or an error?

[wet iron]

that user

no error

just wont kick

[clever tree]

@slender thistle Could you help me please ? Maybe u figure out my problem. My bot played music sice yesterday. Since yesterday the bot joins the channel, light up green but does not have any sound. I could get the nowplaying song and everything else. But the dispatcher didnt even end after the song must be finished. I updated everything. loaded new ffmpeg. nothing helped. Now i tried console.log(serverdispatcher.player) and it gave me at one line : speaking: false; is that the problem. If so, how could i fix this ?

[jagged haven]

let kReason = args.join(" ").slice(22); valid in code v12 ?

[wet iron]

no errors

i get no errors

[nocturne grove]

your bot can't say wont kick if you never wrote that somewhere in your code

sorry I don't understand what you mean

[river wing]

@river wing it doesn't have a tendency to fail for something like that. Idk what you did wrong
@nocturne grove sometimes when i restart my bot, it just gives me that error that members of undefined.

[slender thistle]

Just post as many details as possible and someone who can will help you eventually™️

[wet iron]

it just logs what it did

but the user i tried to kick

is still there

[nocturne grove]

@river wing oh wtf that's strange

[digital ibex]

yes @jagged haven. thats got nothing to do with the library

[nocturne grove]

okay so it doesn't kick but you also didn't receive an error

strange

[wet iron]

ok

now it has an error

[digital ibex]

maybe its ur member resolver, log kuser and shwo what it shows @wet iron

o ok

[wet iron]

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: DiscordApiError: Missing permissions

[jagged haven]

@digital ibex me too error giving

[digital ibex]

then its cuz ur bot doesn't have permissions

[river wing]

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: DiscordApiError: Missing permissions
@wet iron who are u kicking

[wet iron]

a friend that doesnt have a rank

[digital ibex]

i think d.js has Member.kickable

you can use that

[nocturne grove]

you have to compare more than what you did. Position of highest role, bot perms, kuser perms

oh yes what @digital ibex said

[wet iron]

oh i fixed it

[digital ibex]

args is undefined @jagged haven

[nocturne grove]

maybe define it

[high geode]

TypeError: member.send is not a function

pls help

[digital ibex]

what is member

[nocturne grove]

@high geode log member

I asked before but okay

[jagged haven]

@digital ibex how can i define ?

[digital ibex]

it doesn't always mean you need to define it if you get that error, in scroppers case, it means that the mod hasn't provided a reason.

you don't need to

you've already defined it

you need to check if reason doesn't exist, and if it doesn't, then do something

[quartz kindle]

did he tho?

[digital ibex]

yeah. cuz then it would say 'reason is not defined' wouldn't it?

[quartz kindle]

a properly configured args will be an empty array if no arguments are provided

empty arrays can still be joined

[clever tree]

Where could i post my problem too, to get more help ?

[earnest phoenix]

How's possible to set an image that has defined as a new Discord.MessageAttachment() on .setImage() on an embed?
(Not just it's url but it's name also)

For example
let file = new Discord.MessageAttachment("Some url", "Example.png") is possible to set that into .setImage() on an embed?

[nocturne grove]

I don't think so, as a MessageAttachment could also be other files than images

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/MessageAttachment?scrollTo=url @earnest phoenix does this help you maybe?

[earnest phoenix]

So what can i do to name an attachment that can be set to .setImage() ?

(an image attachment)

[pale vessel]

try attachFile() or something

[wet iron]

    if (!msg.member.roles.cache.find(r => r.name === "Staff")) return msg.channel.send(PermEmbed);
    if (!args[0]) return msg.channel.send("oof.")
    if (args[0] > 50) return msg.channel.send("My limit for deleting messages is `50`.")
    const clearEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
    .setColor("#53d636")
    .setTitle(`${msg.author.username} Deleted ${args[0]} message(s)!`)
    .setThumbnail(msg.author.displayAvatarURL())
    msg.channel.bulkDelete(args[0]).then(() => {
        msg.channel.send(clearEmbed);
    })``` i need help, i use this code for clear command and it clears more than i want it to clear...

[earnest phoenix]

I want the image inside the embed not outside of it lol @pale vessel

[nocturne grove]

For example
let file = new Discord.MessageAttachment("Some url", "Example.png") is possible to set that into .setImage() on an embed?
@earnest phoenix if you got that you can just do .setImage(file.url)

[earnest phoenix]

@nocturne grove hmm lemme see

[pale vessel]

no, you use attachFile so that you can use attachment://

[nocturne grove]

to my understanding he has a MessageAttachment and wants to set that as an image to an embed (assuming the attachment is an image)

[pale vessel]

then attach the image

and use attachment://name.ext

[earnest phoenix]

(Literally getting the image from the api but i want to name that and set it as the .setImage() of the embed)

[pale vessel]

because you want to hide the key?

[wet iron]

    if (!msg.member.roles.cache.find(r => r.name === "Staff")) return msg.channel.send(PermEmbed);
    if (!args[0]) return msg.channel.send("oof.")
    if (args[0] > 50) return msg.channel.send("My limit for deleting messages is `50`.")
    const clearEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
    .setColor("#53d636")
    .setTitle(`${msg.author.username} Deleted ${args[0]} message(s)!`)
    .setThumbnail(msg.author.displayAvatarURL())
    msg.channel.bulkDelete(args[0]).then(() => {
        msg.channel.send(clearEmbed);
    })``` i need help, i use this code for clear command and it clears more than i want it to clear...

anyone?

[earnest phoenix]

Nah i want it downloadable as an image extension not this @pale vessel

[pale vessel]

you should add an extension

[nocturne grove]

afaik images in embeds don't have a name

I tried

[pale vessel]

they do

[earnest phoenix]

Yea they do

@pale vessel i tried to add an extension... Nothing

[pale vessel]

i can definitely help you with this but i'm eating a pizza rn

give me a minute

all right boi

@earnest phoenix DMs or here

is there a problem on youtube?

[radiant estuary]

Hey guys.
I have a big question:

How do I get the datas (Name, ID etc) the user, who used the OAuth2

[tight plinth]

Yes, but this shouldn't affect the play song function

[radiant estuary]

I already have a server

[tight plinth]

See what the oauth2 retusn you and use it

[worthy kindle]

My friend has a bot coded with Javascript I am my friend were thinking about how to make it so it says its streaming?

[tight plinth]

Yes you can do that

Just read the docs to find the right function and use it

[radiant estuary]

See what the oauth2 retusn you and use it
How can I do this with JavaScript?

[worthy kindle]

But we were wondering what the code is for it.

[tight plinth]

@radiant estuary if you request oauth for user details, it should returns you user details

@worthy kindle were not gonna give you code. Find it yourself

[earnest phoenix]

@wet iron hey bro

i want some help

[radiant estuary]

@tight plinth sry for the ping. And how can I connect my code with the oauth2?

[tight plinth]

Read discord docs

[earnest phoenix]

Could not extract html5player key: https://www.youtube.com/s/player/de455b1a/player_ias.vflset/en_US/base.js

[tight plinth]

And Google can help you

[radiant estuary]

Okay. What should I search? I am new, so i don't know what would be the best

[tight plinth]

Just search what you need

oh yeah that cache thing smh

ty

it is the role manager i'm not used to it yet

[tight plinth]

It's not only the role managet

It's also like every manager (members, users, channels and I probably forget others)

[slender wagon]

they have the cache right?

[lofty grove]

@lofty grove change the api key , make a new one from a new id
@earnest phoenix it didn't work, are you available?

[earnest phoenix]

@lofty grove the same thing happened with my music bot

might be u have exceded the daily quota limit

so

the quota refreshes every midnight

so wait till midnight

if it doesnt helps

[lofty grove]

do you have the same error in your bot?

[earnest phoenix]

create a new api key or ask one of ur friend to create an API

@lofty grove yea i had the same error

but its sorted out now

create a new api key or ask one of ur friend to create an API
this will surely help u out

[lusty quest]

anyone here who understands regex? want to find %0 if it is used as an argument (causes an API to return an stupid amount of stuff if spammed with certain variants)

[tight plinth]

STRING.includes('%0')

[neat ingot]

/([\%0])/g

https://regexr.com/

[lusty quest]

@tight plinth returns false if someone uses %0A (created massive issues wich caused pm2 to panic)

[tight plinth]

No

[lusty quest]

i already tested it and it returned false while the argument was %0A

(not with regex)

[lusty quest]

hmm

strange

now it works

but thanks

[lofty grove]

@earnest phoenix I did thank you I made a few adjustments.

It works smoothly now
Thank you buddy.

[amber fractal]

When you use the g flag, you need to reset the lastIndex to 0

i think

[nocturne grove]

just jsonfile = {} and then save it?

[hardy vector]

or that

[marble juniper]

just

delete the file

and make the file again

but with {} inside

[whole knot]

Is someone here familiar with a command to turn moduls on or off?
I have implimented a leveling system into my bot and I would like to give the opportunity to turn it off or on with a command. Something like this has never been done before by myself, that's why I ask

[brave rover]

what lib are you using?

[whole knot]

Using Python and Pillow

[brave rover]

you can use bot.unload_extension() to unload a specific cog

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension

[whole knot]

Oh yes, implimented that but I wanted to make it user friendly. People sometimes do not want to have the level system in their server

Unloading the whole thing would mean it does not work on all the servers

[nocturne grove]

@hardy vector My eslint says that object is not right. I guess you can't use like Solo: Mode, instead of that use Solo Mode:.
But that doesn't seem to fix the entire problem

[brave rover]

I suppose you could store guild IDs that don't want levelling enabled, and then when you're running your checks, you could check the message's guild against that list

[whole knot]

Sounds good, will have a look into that

Thanks! :)

[brave rover]

nw

[hardy vector]

oh

so what do i do then lol

[earnest phoenix]

const member = msg.mentions.users.first() || bot.users.fetch(args[0]);
return msg.guild.ban(member)

msg.guild.ban is not a function

[quartz kindle]

in v12 its guild.members.ban(id) or member.ban()

[earnest phoenix]

oke

how can I get the user ID when using bot.users.fetch(args[0])

[pale vessel]

use then/await

[earnest phoenix]

let user = msg.mentions.users.first();
if (!user && !isNaN(args[0])) user = bot.users.fetch(args[0]);

Is there a way to compare a strring with a file and select the one thats the closest? For example:
If I type papr it'll look into a file and find Paper being the closest?

[mossy vine]

@digital ibex restart ur computor

[digital ibex]

oh

thats annoying

thank u

[earnest phoenix]

client.guilds.cache.forEach(g => {
        g.fetchInvites()
            .then(invites => guildInvites.set(g.id, invites))
            .catch(err => console.log(err));
    });

    const cachedInvites = guildInvites.get(member.guild.id)
    const newInvites = await member.guild.fetchInvites();
    const usedInvite = newInvites.find(inv => cachedInvites.get(inv.uses < inv.uses));

This works if a user only has a code joint for example "WYD" but not if he has a discord/WYDC joint.
What do I have to change to make it work with both things.
Because otherwise usedInvite is undefined

[clever tree]

Is that normal when i type console.log(dispatcher) ?

[earnest phoenix]

Yes?

[clever tree]

I mean speaking: false

[tulip ledge]

Anyone knows how to implement levenshtein distance to find the closest match and not what the difference is?

[mossy vine]

actually yeah, i do

[tulip ledge]

How?

[mossy vine]

what lang

[tulip ledge]

Javascript

[quartz kindle]

there's an npm module for it

[tulip ledge]

I was thinking of running a for each on the file checking wich one was the closest but then u have the problem if tehere's 2 items with a difference of 1

[mossy vine]

here is my levenshtein distance implementation

exports.levenshteinRatio = (target, source) => {
    if (source == null || target == null) return 0.0
    if (source.length == 0 || target.length == 0) return 0.0
    if (source === target) return 1.0

    let sourceWordCount = source.length
    let targetWordCount = target.length

    let distance = new Array(sourceWordCount + 1)
    for (let i = 0; i < distance.length; i++) {
        distance[i] = new Array(targetWordCount + 1)
    }

    for (let i = 0; i <= sourceWordCount; distance[i][0] = i++);
    for (let j = 0; j <= targetWordCount; distance[0][j] = j++);

    for (let i = 1; i <= sourceWordCount; i++) {
        for (let j = 1; j <= targetWordCount; j++) {
            let cost = ((target.charAt(j - 1) === source.charAt(i - 1)) ? 0 : 1)

            distance[i][j] = Math.min(Math.min(distance[i - 1][j] + 1, distance[i][j - 1] + 1), distance[i - 1][j - 1] + cost)
        }
    }

    return 1.0 - distance[sourceWordCount][targetWordCount] / Math.max(source.length, target.length)
}```

[tulip ledge]

For real?

Can I use it?

[mossy vine]

function mostSimilarModule(searchItem) {
    let keys = Array.from(ktaneModules.keys())
    let module = keys.sort((entry1, entry2) =>
        levenshteinRatio(entry2.toLowerCase(), searchItem) - levenshteinRatio(entry1.toLowerCase(), searchItem)
    )[0]
    if (levenshteinRatio(module.toLowerCase(), searchItem) < 0.7) return null
    return module
}```

ktaneModules being the map of ur stuff

[quartz kindle]

you made your own implementation? awesome

[mossy vine]

<0.7 being my own filter

[tulip ledge]

wait u need a map?

I was thinking of using a json file

[quartz kindle]

i just copied the npm module's source code over to my projects so i dont need to add it as a dependency lmao

[mossy vine]

no, you can modify the code

[tulip ledge]

So I'll havbe to map it first

[mossy vine]

i think it actually transforms the map into an object

or array

idfk

just read the code and figure it out lmao

[tulip ledge]

So I suppose the mostSimilar is used in the file where u wanna use it and the levenshtein is a diff file?

Right

[mossy vine]

levenshtein is a diff file for clarity yea

but you can do whatever

i just realized the second function is changing the value of module

ew

im sorry

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[tulip ledge]

Wait

So what do I do with the second function?

[mossy vine]

you modify it to fit your needs

[tulip ledge]

But I put it in the file I need right

[digital ibex]

why am i getting this again, i just restarted my pc

[mossy vine]

or export it from another file, whatever floats your boat

[digital ibex]

i already installed vue btw

[mossy vine]

is it added to path

[digital ibex]

yes

[tulip ledge]

I've never done something like this before lol

[mossy vine]

dont just copy my code

well you can copy the first function

but not the second one

[digital ibex]

wait

how do i add it to the path?

[tulip ledge]

Having it in my util ius ok right?

[mossy vine]

modify the second one to do whatever you want it to

[tulip ledge]

I'm gonna change it

[digital ibex]

i just done vue init and i get that

[tulip ledge]

To be able to work with a json

[mossy vine]

yeah its perfectly fine as long as you are importing it from there

[tulip ledge]

So I should import it using a require

Or am I being brainded

[mossy vine]

yes

[tulip ledge]

yes of me being braindead or?

[digital ibex]

@mossy vine u kno how i can initialise the project?

[mossy vine]

import using require

@digital ibex nope, sry

[digital ibex]

o ok

thanks anyways :)

[tulip ledge]

So like this should work

I'll just add it to my client object then so I can use it in my commads and stuff

[grizzled raven]

however you want

[tulip ledge]

Ok I'm a bit lost

Idk how to make it work with the array

Cuz I need to get the keys and u can't map a json

Nvm I think I might have a solution

[next remnant]

i'm trying out d.js and commando

i follow the first example from the first steps page of commando

when i try to import client, i get this error

using the import * as Commando from 'discord.js-commando' syntax results in this when i try to create an instance of Client

i'm using typescript here

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/commando/master/general/first-steps (im following the first example on this page)

help?

[quartz kindle]

you need to install commando from their github

the version on npm is outdated afaik

[next remnant]

how do i do that?

[quartz kindle]

npm install discordjs/commando

[tulip ledge]

https://hastebin.com/ugajitavoy.js
entry2.toLowerCase is not a function

[mossy raft]

hi

[next remnant]

are docs outdated too?

the npm version sure is

[quartz kindle]

not sure

is it working now?

[tulip ledge]

Tim u know my problem?

[next remnant]

yeah

seems to be

[quartz kindle]

@tulip ledge entry2 is not a string

[digital ibex]

does anyone know why i'm getting?

i just installed vue

[warm marsh]

npx vue

[quartz kindle]

did you restart your pc?

[tulip ledge]

Wait what

[digital ibex]

yeah

[warm marsh]

Probably due to not being installed globally

[quartz kindle]

did you install vue globally?

[warm marsh]

Using -g flag.

[digital ibex]

uhh, i didn't

[next remnant]

pretty sure its vue-cli or something

[tulip ledge]

@mossy vine (sorry for tag)

[digital ibex]

yeah. i just done npm install vue-cli

[tulip ledge]

Help pls

[quartz kindle]

you need -g

[digital ibex]

oh, ok

[tulip ledge]

I verry confused

[warm marsh]

Do npx vue-cli.

[next remnant]

nvm, thats for npx

[tulip ledge]

Why is entry2 not a string tho

[warm marsh]

Using module doesn't throw an error?

[tulip ledge]

Entry2 equals 1

[warm marsh]

toString it?

[tulip ledge]

I'll try

Oh I'm so-

Wtf

TypeError: client.levenshtein is not a function

Like wth

[warm marsh]

What's in that file?

[warm marsh]

You need to use client.levenshtein.levenshteinRation

[tulip ledge]

Oh

Lol

I just realised

Xd

Ty

I feel like I'm doing it wrong

First of all module.toLowerCase() isnt a function (but I can fix that)
It returns 0 and not the closest match

[next remnant]

are there any examples on how to define commands other than digging through the example bot code?

[warm marsh]

if content == command {}

[next remnant]

nope

thats bad

[warm marsh]

No?

[next remnant]

pain to scale

[warm marsh]

Right. What language are you using?

[next remnant]

trying out discord.js

generally use d.py

[warm marsh]

External files are easy to implement.

What kind of OS are you on?

[next remnant]

where can I find examples?

im on linux

[warm marsh]

Okay.

[tulip ledge]

Oh

Wait

I'm stupid

[warm marsh]

Files are typically laid out like

module.exports = {
  run: function() {}
}

// or
module.exports = class {
  method() {}
}```

called like require('file').method

or new method()

[next remnant]

uhh thats commonjs

im using ts with es modules

[warm marsh]

Ah

Okay then export run = function

[next remnant]

can i get a link to documentation for this?

[warm marsh]

There is no docs?

[tulip ledge]

Can somebody help me?

[warm marsh]

One sec

[tulip ledge]

Cuz I'm losing braincells

[next remnant]

i can't find anything on https://discord.js.org/#/docs/commando/master/general/first-steps

[warm marsh]

Commando

[next remnant]

yes

im looking at commando docs

[warm marsh]

It's not dep?

[next remnant]

what

[warm marsh]

deprecated

[next remnant]

its on the docs site

nothing says it is

[warm marsh]

Idk, Does commando not have some function like commando.command('name')

or something

[next remnant]

neither on docs nor on repo

[tulip ledge]

can someone help me?

[warm marsh]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/commando/master/class/Command

@tulip ledge what is the error?

Otherthan 1

[tulip ledge]

No error

It returns 0

And not the closest match

[next remnant]

that is api refernece

not documentation on how to use it for someone who has never used it before

[warm marsh]

Idk, I've never used commando as pretty sure it was deprecated.

[next remnant]

if it is deprecated then why do they not say it anywhere

[warm marsh]

"pretty sure"

Didn't mean it was.

[next remnant]

oh

missed that

[digital ibex]

anyone here familiar with vue?

[tulip ledge]

Do you have a sloution or not?

[warm marsh]

I'm reading your code.

https://discordjs.guide/commando/#creating-your-index-js-file weebsimp

Idk if that's of any use.

[pale vessel]

i like how you unironically called them weebsimp

[warm marsh]

That's his displayname.

[pale vessel]

yep

[warm marsh]

their*

[pale vessel]

ah yes, it's dangerous these days

[warm marsh]

👀 very

[pale vessel]

commando ew

[next remnant]

which one should i follow?

[digital ibex]

commando bad

[pale vessel]

^

[next remnant]

what else to use?

[warm marsh]

discord.js

without the - commando

[next remnant]

what comamnds framework to use?

[pale vessel]

your own

xd

[next remnant]

i ain't writing my own

[pale vessel]

legit

[digital ibex]

why

its not that hard

[pale vessel]

it's not hard

[warm marsh]

For JS; Eris, DJS, DJSCommando

maybe some others.

[pale vessel]

eris has a command client too

[warm marsh]

@tulip ledge x => x = x?

[pale vessel]

but i never used it

[next remnant]

its a pain to deal with + more code to maintain

[digital ibex]

same

[tulip ledge]

Yeah I'm bad at mapping

[pale vessel]

it's actually less for me

[tulip ledge]

And u needed to pass a function

[pale vessel]

but idk

[warm marsh]

Check file is an array

[tulip ledge]

idk

[warm marsh]

and then it's just an array of strings?

[tulip ledge]

Wait

I'm getting confused

checkfile is a map

[warm marsh]

Maybe checkfile = itemstosearch.map(x => itemfile[x]);

[tulip ledge]

I'll try

[warm marsh]

So returns the object named 'diamond' etc.

If that's what the plan of it was.

[next remnant]

if commando is bad (other than making my own) what should i use?

[tulip ledge]

Still logs 0

[digital ibex]

ur own, its not hard at all

oh

[next remnant]

scalability

[tulip ledge]

Basically when I type dimond it should "correct" it to diamond

[digital ibex]

i don't think there r any

i'm not sure tho

[warm marsh]

Use regex?

[tulip ledge]

But how

Cuz I have multiple

Like a good 80 different

[next remnant]

im sorry i dont wanna write my own converter system, checks system, concurrency system and list goes on

[tulip ledge]

And it needs to correct it to the closest

[warm marsh]

Most common other than writing yourself is DJS.

[next remnant]

discord.js itself is an api wrapper, not a command framework

commando is command framwork

[pale vessel]

commando then

[digital ibex]

no its not an api wrapper

[warm marsh]

No, You just write that yourself.

[pale vessel]

it is

[warm marsh]

Takes like 20 lines max

[digital ibex]

barely

[tulip ledge]

You have a solution of mine?

[digital ibex]

why does vue take so long to install

[warm marsh]

Internet?

[pale vessel]

just use a simple command handler

[warm marsh]

Not yet.

Using something like a map and if statement is decent enough.

Using some other way of storing into map.

Idk why you need checkfile.keys()

[tulip ledge]

wdym if statement?

[warm marsh]

Not you.

For a command loader.

[tulip ledge]

oh ok

Well this code was given to me

I'm just tryna implement my code into it

[warm marsh]

Ah.

[tulip ledge]

@mossy vine made it

[warm marsh]

Did you change client.levenshtein to client.levenshtein.levenshteinRatio()

[next remnant]

does djs not have a default error handler? (once that just logs to console)

[tulip ledge]

yup

[warm marsh]

djs requires a little more setting up.

[tulip ledge]

https://hastebin.com/fehunozizi.js

[warm marsh]

What's skyblock/items.json diamonds equal to?

[warm marsh]

Mhh

[clever tree]

I had the issue where my bot joins, finds the video and mp3, lights green but has no sound after 2 weeks working well. I made a new folder. Build everything again from 0 but the error is still the same. I reinstalled everything, again the same issue xd. Could someone help me pleease. I cant imagine the problem

[warm marsh]

Any errors?

[tulip ledge]

for me?

[clever tree]

no. Console is clean

[warm marsh]

No.

Do you have ffmpeg installed?

Dependent on language ofc.

[clever tree]

yes. I had ffmpeg installed manually. And then i installed ffmpeg-static. I use js

[warm marsh]

node-opus?

Do you have any code to show?

[clever tree]

i used node-opus before. And then i updated to @discordjs/opus after that issue

@warm marsh https://github.com/iCrawl/discord-music-bot/issues/25

That is my issue xd

[warm marsh]

What version of djs?

11.6.4

[clever tree]

yes

[warm marsh]

Idk, Nothing in the code looks too much of an issue.

Might seem stupid but does ServerMusicQueue actually store a value?

[clever tree]

I think that could be a problem, but if u look at the last line there is simple function with a given ytlink for ytdl. But that doesnt work neither

[warm marsh]

playStream?

[next remnant]

okay so i got as far as creating a command subclass. in the run method

    // ...
}```
what do i return? it won't compile i don't return anything or remove the return type

[warm marsh]

From what I saw, return message.say('content');

[clever tree]

Thats the problem. I used the same code for 3 weeks. Everything worked. Yesterday I changed a timeout from 10000ms to 8000ms. After that I got this error (only an example. It was in Index.js). I turned of my pc, turned on after a day again and then got this the music error.

[next remnant]

why do i need to even return a message?

what purpose does it serve

[warm marsh]

Idk.

I've never used commando.

Just try returning 0 if you don't want to return a message

[tulip ledge]

u have a solution for me?

[warm marsh]

Working on it.

FeX have you tried reinstalling ytdl idk if you said.

[clever tree]

Reinstalled it like 3 times or sth. Thats not fixing the issue. Idk i changed nothing about the packages. The only thing I know is that the version of the dependencies for ytdl-core i use are older then the dependencies ytdl-core with that version actually has. I installed them manually. But if i remove mine ytdl-core starts playing and instantly leaves the channel without sound. So idk whats wrong with ytdl, ffmpeg and node-opus together xd

[warm marsh]

@tulip ledge module returns a function.

[clever tree]

But if nothing is wrong, should I buy a new pc or sth xd
I dont know. Noone knows this issues or even no a solution. Its creepy xd

[warm marsh]

Nah your PC won't be causing the problem.

[tulip ledge]

what do i do wwith the function?

[warm marsh]

oh nvm.

You get 0 from console.logging module?

[tulip ledge]

yup

[fluid basin]

But if i remove mine ytdl-core starts playing and instantly leaves the channel without sound
@clever tree what do you mean by this

[clever tree]

@fluid basin If i remove my manually installed ytdl-core dependencies with older versions the bot joins and instantly leaves the channel.

[fluid basin]

why would you do that though

[warm marsh]

@tulip ledge replace searchItem with item.

[clever tree]

because of exactly the join, instant leave issue i donwloaded older versions which have not that issue. @fluid basin

[tulip ledge]

I dont see how that will change

[clever tree]

But i did not change them in this 2 weeks. Thats not the issue. They worked well.

[warm marsh]

Just try it.

[tulip ledge]

Cuz where I define the cuntion it's just a parameter

[fluid basin]

you should be using the latest version

[warm marsh]

Nvm

[tulip ledge]

Still 0

[warm marsh]

I just saw that.

Would do you pass as args?

[tulip ledge]

dimond

[warm marsh]

I think the ratio function is the problem.

nvm

Changed the wrong value.

[tulip ledge]

?

[clever tree]

@fluid basin If i use the newest version of ytdl-core (2.1.5) the bot joins the channel has no sound and instantly leaves the channel again. :/

[tulip ledge]

I dont get what u mean with that Dillon

[warm marsh]

I'm testing.

It's something todo with your array.

Change keys to equal

let keys = Object.keys(itemfile).filter(x => itemstosearch.includes(x));

[fluid basin]

you should try to print the error you are getting from ytdl @clever tree

if the bot joins and leaves it means that it has nothing to play

[tulip ledge]

Euh lol

Now it said dimond equals redstone

[warm marsh]

Lol.

[next remnant]

I register my commands as

client.registry
    .registerGroups([
        ['first', 'Your First Command Group'],
    ])
    .registerDefaults()
    .registerCommandsIn(path.join(__dirname, 'commands'))

[warm marsh]

change entry1 with entry2 and entry2 with entry1.

[tulip ledge]

Oh

It things that everything is redstone

[clever tree]

@fluid basin So it get the video, the url and the id. So i think everything he needs to play xd

[next remnant]

where test.ts is https://pastify-app.web.app/show/nqdIxhxvOWkGkyGXpavV.ts

and it isn't picking up the test command

[tulip ledge]

Still does the same thing

[next remnant]

whenever i run {prefix} test

i get unknown command

[warm marsh]

Maybe it's looking for files in that dir only and not recursive.

[next remnant]

idk

[warm marsh]

Try putting test.ts in /commands and not /tests

[next remnant]

does anyone know why it isn't working?

[warm marsh]

first*

[tulip ledge]

Dillon

[earnest phoenix]

Anyone having problems with bot getting started?

[tulip ledge]

It still corredcts everything to redstoneµ

[next remnant]

Error: Group "first" is not registered.

[warm marsh]

Oh groups.

What does the file contain?

[next remnant]

where test.ts is https://pastify-app.web.app/show/nqdIxhxvOWkGkyGXpavV.ts

[clever tree]

@fluid basin I used to test. Same issue. What should I do ?

async function testing(connection, message) {

                const serverdispatcher2 = connection.playStream(ytdl("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9ffM4EJPVs", { filter: 'audioonly', quality: 'highestaudio', highWaterMark: 1 << 25 }))
                    .on("end", () => {        
                            connection.disconnect(10000);
                    })
                    .on("error", error => {        
                        console.log(error)
                    })

                }

                message.member.voiceChannel.join().then(function (connection) {
                        testing(connection, message);
                    })

[warm marsh]

@tulip ledge

[tulip ledge]

?

[warm marsh]

const resp = keys.sort((key1, key2) => {
  return ratio(key2, test) - ratio(key1, test);
})[0];

[tulip ledge]

Wait

[warm marsh]

const keys = Object.keys(file)
  .filter(key => words.includes(key));```

[tulip ledge]

Ok

So I replace module with resp?

[warm marsh]

Yeah

I just used resp as module is a keyword.

[tulip ledge]

I change module to resp aswell?

[warm marsh]

Yeah

weeb simp, I don't know did you follow what it said in the guide?

file -> itemfile Chickendev.

[fluid basin]

the error should show automatically in the console

[next remnant]

im following the guide

it says to create it in first folder

[warm marsh]

Alright.

[tulip ledge]

Alight it works now

Its just

[clever tree]

@fluid basin It has no error at all. And console.log(dispatcher) works too
