i have now a MongoDB cluster running on 3 VPS servers. i can define to Write over the Master Node and Read only over the Secondary nodes
tulip ledge
But like the 300MB ram is when it's on it's peak with 20 people doing commands at once
Oh I see
lusty quest
and this is still a basic setup
tulip ledge
But ram shouldn't be a problem I have a full gig and can get more if I want to
lusty quest
iirc you can shard the nodes to read and write over mutiple nodes
tulip ledge
I see
lusty quest
mysql can be sharded but with complex stuff
lusty quest
define nodes
lusty quest
not that i know
tulip ledge
lusty quest
and never heard it
tulip ledge
Cuz I've seen hosting services have multiple nodes
lusty quest
You get Mutiple VPS server that Communicate with each other
tulip ledge
Oh yeah thats prob it
lusty quest
a different thing is it when you use Kubernetes
tulip ledge
dont know what that is
lusty quest
a complete Overkill system for managing Mutiple Services on Mutiple servers
tulip ledge
oh lol
lusty quest
bots like Mee6 use it for managing the Shards
tulip ledge
oh
lusty quest
bcs they have a few thousand shards on mutiple servers
woeful pollen
It does voice
lusty quest
the bot just got large enought to hit the limit
woeful pollen
oh no i keep getting this error. I tried majking more bots and messing around with it and keep not working :(
discord js error [voice_connection_timeout]: connection not established within 15 seconds
woeful pollen
Oh
tulip ledge
Should I shard my bot before making it public? Or wait untill I maybe hit 2000 servers to then shard it?
Cuz sharding is required if you have like 2500 servers right?
lusty quest
wait until you hit 1800 then make plans about it
tulip ledge
Alright
lusty quest
at 2000 start sharding
tulip ledge
Alright
woeful pollen
How do I make my internet faster
lusty spade
hi, i am making a warn command but i am getting this error that number is invalid. pls help
tulip ledge
Get a better provider
lusty quest
or get a server
woeful pollen
But will the music commands work for other ppl
tulip ledge
Data @ ID: "warnings_720997710479491123_709293157279334431" IS NOT A number
lusty quest
@lusty spade you try to set a string as a number
tulip ledge
IS NOT A number
lusty spade
but the amount = 1 also does not work
lusty quest
bcs it can get the 1 as a string
tulip ledge
^^
lusty spade
so how do i fix it?
lusty quest
javascript can do 1+1 = 11
woeful pollen
1 += 1
lusty quest
did you get the ID from a Database?
lusty spade
javascript can do 1+1 = 11
oh i didnt knew that
tulip ledge
@woeful pollen if 1 is a string that will still result in 11
lusty quest
or did you want to save it to a database?
lusty spade
i want to save it
tulip ledge
save it where
lusty quest
your field expects a number make it a string
lusty spade
to a database
lusty quest
mysql?
lusty spade
quick.db
tulip ledge
Dont think thats mysql
lusty quest
idk never used quick.db
tulip ledge
me neither
lusty spade
ah ok
lusty quest
does it uses mysql syntax or models
lusty spade
idk im not sure
lusty quest
db.fetch(`logchannel_${message.guild.id}`);
key and value
tulip ledge
Yup
And somewhere you are adding a value that needs to be a number but you're passing a stringµ
lusty spade
this requires a table
lusty quest
ohh right @tulip ledge if you want to try mongodb i think you can get a free mongodb instance
lusty quest
mysql is fine but i think you will run into issues if you get a certain amount of Requests
tulip ledge
I'm getting my own VPS soon so yeah
I'll see what happens
Those are concerns for later
I'm sure MySQL can hold up
lusty quest
sure but the most common way to scale a Mysql Database is getting more powerful hardware
lusty quest
larger companies run a 64 Core Epyc with a ton of ram for Mysql
lusty quest
you will be fine
but if you hit 2 million Guilds i dont think you can pay for the hardware you need for running Mysql
lusty quest
so if every of the 2 million guilds get about 2k users you have a shitton of data
tulip ledge
It's only users that use a certain commands tho
And they get saved over 5 different tables
lusty quest
well there is some space for error
white anvil
its sometimes better at that stage to write your own user objects that contain micro optimisations to save bytes per object
for example using an int for discriminator and storing user ids as bigint instead of strings
tulip ledge
No
quartz kindle
you'd only need that if you actually get to millions of users
tulip ledge
I save the ID and then like 20 other columns
tulip ledge
In 5 different tables
Maybe when I start sharding I should rewrite everything and use MongoDB
Or is that not a good idea
quartz kindle
at small scale it doesnt really matter what you use, everything will be fine
small scale being less than 100k guilds or something like that
tulip ledge
I wonder what database pokecord used
woeful pollen
Quickdb
tulip ledge
quickdb?
honest perch
doubt it
quartz kindle
i seriously doubt pokecord used quick.db lol
lusty quest
isnt it sqlite like?
tulip ledge
Yeah no way he used duickdb
honest perch
maybe mongo?
lusty quest
would guess Mongo, Mysql or Postgres
quartz kindle
quick.db is a wrapper for sqlite
tulip ledge
Isnt mongo worse then mysql?
calm saddle
¯_(ツ)_/¯
woeful pollen
Which one does dank memer use?
lusty quest
mongodb is faster
tulip ledge
postgres is the fastest db right?
quartz kindle
mongo is not worse, its different
lusty quest
atleast if you have a setup for this
honest perch
mongo is nice as you can edit/see changes
woeful pollen
What's bad about quickdb
honest perch
so you see if its working correctly
calm saddle
i use mongo its not bad
lusty quest
it stores locally and it has a rescource overhead
woeful pollen
Oh
quartz kindle
there is no clear cut between best/fastest databases, they are all equally good, and have their own pros and cons
what changes is how they are structured
tulip ledge
So MySQL is bad when you have too much data?
quartz kindle
not necessarily
calm saddle
What's bad about quickdb
@woeful pollen can get corrupted if your bot is in lot of servers
woeful pollen
Oh really
lusty quest
MongoDB makes it easyer to shard the database
woeful pollen
Frick
calm saddle
yea
tulip ledge
And sharding the database is the best idea?
quartz kindle
once again depends
tulip ledge
But the thing is I don't save guilds, I save users
lusty quest
if you have alot of Bot Shards it can speed up querys for each bot shard
tulip ledge
My bot is an RPG style game bot
lusty quest
since it can get its own Database Shard
tulip ledge
yeah but shards is for guilds right
Not for users
Since a user can use the bot in multiple guilds
quartz kindle
the reason to go for mongo is not the sharding or replication, is the database style
mongo is a nosql document-based store
tulip ledge
I use MySQL since it's what my dad thought me a few years ago
And have always used it
quartz kindle
you need to read about the differences in how databases operate, in order to chose one
mysql is fine, nothing wrong with it
mongodb is not magically better than mysql
tulip ledge
So even with alot of data?
lusty quest
i currently switch from Mysql to MongoDB, the differences are there and for now l like it. Having a better fallback for the database.
quartz kindle
even with a lot of data
tulip ledge
And when I'm saying alot I mean ALOT
quartz kindle
even sqlite can handle thousands of requests per second
lusty quest
tulip ledge
Oh yeah I doubt I'm gonnaa need to handle a thousand per second
lusty quest
this is maybe helpful
calm saddle
which one do u use @quartz kindle ?
tulip ledge
Doesn't JSON corrupt easily?
quartz kindle
i use sqlite
quartz kindle
@tulip ledge json-like doesnt mean json
calm saddle
it looks like json
quartz kindle
mongodb uses document structures, which means all data is stored in a similar way to how a json file is organized, in objects, keys, values and nesting
mysql uses relational tables, which is the whole tables and columns setup
calm saddle
oh
tulip ledge
And actually I prefer tables and columns
quartz kindle
so stick with it
lusty quest
depending on the usage the document style can be faster than the relational tables
quartz kindle
no reason to switch
tulip ledge
with phpmyadmin I can easily access them and get an easy overview
lusty quest
i use mysqlworkbench
tulip ledge
ew I hate workbench
lusty quest
phpmyadmin got a few security flaws
tulip ledge
I use either command line or phpmyadmin
calm saddle
mongo is easy to use
lusty quest
mysqlworkbench is fine
tulip ledge
mysql too if you know SQL
lusty quest
but MongoDB Compass is cleaner
tulip ledge
and sql is literally just english
quartz kindle
i tried mongo once and didnt really like it, but thats just personal preference
tulip ledge
So you should choose your database on personal preference mostly?
pale vessel
all comes down to personal preference
calm saddle
i use mongoDB atlas
woeful pollen
I use quickdb because I was unable to use any of the other databases
lusty quest
if you first step into mongo it can be overwhelming but if you get your structure going its relatively easy to use
tulip ledge
I feel like it's the same with mysql aswell
lusty quest
@calm saddle i build my own MongoDB cluster
calm saddle
oh
tulip ledge
big brain plays
calm saddle
i use one cluster in 2 diff bots
tulip ledge
Alright ty very much!
calm saddle
i can access each other too
quartz kindle
i have a dedicated sqlite instance for each bot
lusty quest
i pay 15€/Month for having 3 Nodes with 1GB ram
its enought for a few bots accessing it
calm saddle
i use free
quartz kindle
i pay $3/month for everything
calm saddle
M0
calm saddle
im okay with the free M0 cluster
lusty quest
wtf did i write there
lusty quest
sleeping 2 hours is not a good idea
quartz kindle
go sleep

@calm saddle does the free Cluster offers Replication?

Hey so I'm trying to make functions but how can i make them like this
"hey".toProperCase()

@calm saddle does the free Cluster offers Replication?
@lusty quest wut?
modest maple
SQL can be quite easily scaled with k8s and stateful sets
infact kubernetes use MySQL as their example for user cases
earnest phoenix
So this is my toProperCase() function i made but how can i make it "String".toProperCase() instead of toProperCase("String")
let sptp = [];

quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix you can add it to the string prototype
cinder patio
Attach it to the prototype
String.prototype.functionName = function() {
}
if the offline Master Nodes Comes back online it stays as a Secondary node
and replicates the data that is missing

@calm saddle my Cluster Replicates the Data on the Master Node to 2 Secondary nodes. Of the masternode goes offline a Secondary Node gets elected as master node
@lusty quest wait hold up lemme get some more brain cells to understand that lmao
lusty quest
did you know what Raid is?
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix here's an example
earnest phoenix
Oh... Thanks
lusty quest
@calm saddle https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/replication/
quartz kindle
@calm saddle basically it means this:
you have 2 copies of the database, a main copy and a backup copy. everything the main database does, its copy makes a copy of it. if the main database dies, the backup automatically takes its place
and when the main database revives, it gets revived as a copy instead and now copies everything the new main database (the one that took its place) does and did while it was offline
restive furnace
it supports gif, png, jpg and webp
lusty quest
https://i.imgur.com/55kUYIS.png but this is what happens incase the master node goes offline
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle it works but is this good?
let sptp = [];
for(w of this.toString().split(" ")){
for(wts of w.split("")[0]){
sptp.push(`${wts.toUpperCase()}${w.slice(1)}`);

can i have some help with image resizing for embed thumbnails?

you shouldnt need this.toString() since this is already a string
earnest phoenix
Trying to uppercase every single first letter of the words in the string @hasty sparrow
quartz kindle
there are easier ways to do that
calm saddle
@calm saddle basically it means this:
you have 2 copies of the database, a main copy and a backup copy. everything the main database does, its copy makes a copy of it. if the main database dies, the backup automatically takes its place
@quartz kindle ooohh okay thnx for the knowledge
quartz kindle
also, how do you want to handle multiple spaces?
hasty sparrow
Gotcha
quartz kindle
you can simply do something like this btw
return this.split(" ").map(word => word[0].toUpperCase() + word.slice(1)).join(" ")
quartz kindle
that should leave multiple spaces unaffected
otherwise you can use the regex / +/ instead of " " when splitting if you want multiple spaces to be reduced to a single space
earnest phoenix
Oh well it works better now, thanks tim and thanks to all that helped
earnest phoenix
Anybody know what's wrong here?

ok, so I have this bot that seems to have completely crashed. The web host shows a spike in cpu and ram (upto around 50% cpu at the time of crash), and the bot was not online in my guild at all, the bot seemed to reboot itself and come back online in the server, and it thinks its been online for over 5 hours
anyone got any idea what may have caused such a thing to happen?

@cinder patio ?
neat ingot
only single shard atm
neat ingot
less than 120 servers too lol
golden condor
Could have been a discord thing
cinder patio
FLAGS is a static member, meaning it's accessed from the class itself, not an instance of the class

so like,

bruh

it grabs it from a cache

people really like it

lots of bots do it lol

bruh

ive seen people delete a message with a password, and then someone snipes it
and then no mods delete it

see that's what I mean lol

what should be fixed then?

most logging bots still log deleted messages in log channels anyway

yeah but most log channels are staff only (afaik)

wait but how do i fix then

is it because of this.client?
wouldnt it be message.client?

ok im back
hardy vector
i think it does

the problem is that you dont return when there is no message
so the code continues even if there is no message
hardy vector
but if there is no message it tells them it couldnt find any recently deleted messages
quartz kindle
yes, but continues the code anyway

hi, im making a unban command. But there is a problem everytime i run the command i runs perfectly the message output shows that the banned user was unbanned but it does not unban the user and it gives me a error.
quartz kindle
fetchBans() returns all bans, you can use fetchBan() instead to only get one and not need to bans.get(args[0])
anyway, the ban object contains a user and a reason. you need to pass the user to the unban method, not the ban object
ie: .unban(banned.user)

embed.image.url: Could not interpret "{'attachment': 'https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/724469899413553213/725384172335530015/pixel.jpg', 'name': 'pixel.jpg', 'id': '725384172335530015', 'size': 9592, 'url': 'https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/724469899413553213/725384172335530015/pixel.jpg', 'proxyURL': 'https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/724469899413553213/725384172335530015/pixel.jpg', 'height': 620, 'width': 620}" as string.
is it possible for me to show the image that they deleted
or no
quartz kindle
you 're saving the entire attachment and giving it to setImage
you need only the url
cinder dove
Is it possible to update a bot while having the node process active and 0 interruptions? 🤔 I don't think so but there's some smart people out here.
quartz kindle
it is
quartz kindle
if your code is based on required files, you can invalidate the require cache and force it to re-require said files
cinder dove
Ohhh wait so i can actually make it refresh basically.
quartz kindle
yup, thats how many bots implement command refresh commands
cinder dove
Thank you a lot.
solemn latch
I have a restart command.
since my bot is mainly games, theres a 3 minute no new games from when the restart command was run, and then it restarts.
so no ones game gets lost.
I need to do the same for refreshing commands i just havent yet
due to lazyness
pure lion
How do I make a bot restart command in eval? Last time I destroyed the client then logged back on but it didn't work:
bot.destroy().then(() => bot.login(token))
digital ibex
you could possibly try that, or just await it
quartz kindle
client.destroy() just logs out, doesnt end the process
pure lion
you could possibly try that, or just await it
Didn't work last time
quartz kindle
if you want a full restart, you need process.exit()
pure lion
Ooooooo
digital ibex
not sure, i haven't had a reason to have a restart command so i don't really know 
pure lion
^:)
lusty spade
tim, i used ur method and did fetchBan() and change it to .unban(banned.user) but im still getting this error: https://pastebin.com/3cin5HYH
restive furnace
or if you just want release the cache, just set client to null and create new one :DD
pure lion
I literally wanna log out then log back in-
quartz kindle
whats your code now zhon
solemn latch
wait, was the error that token didnt exist? @pure lion ?
pure lion
Nope
lusty spade
my code: https://pastebin.com/gCCMibSq
solemn latch
quartz kindle
@lusty spade you need to give fetchBan() the id of the user
so it knows which ban to fetch
lusty spade
so i need to place the banned user's id in the brackets?
lusty spade
ok
is there a way to do unban few users without going in to the code and changing the user id?
pure lion
@solemn latch yeah, request to use token but it was unavailable
quartz kindle
theres no way to unban multiple users at once, but you can make your code call members.unban() multiple times
either from a list of ids, or from a list of bans
solemn latch
You'd have to get the token from the configuration file I would think
reef mantle
Hello
lusty spade
oh ok thanks, so i can log banned members into a db then get the members id from the db
quartz kindle
sure
reef mantle
I can help too I am not a pro but I can help
lusty spade
ok thanks
reef mantle
Btw hi Dice and Woo
pure lion
You'd have to get the token from the configuration file I would think
Where? bot.destroy?
Oh hey
pure lion
Uh
spare goblet
use a database
reef mantle
What's a database?
pure lion
Store items as IDs and use a db
reef mantle
Sorry I am still noob
pure lion
Uh
pure lion
Idk, never used quickdb
earnest phoenix
anyone here can shard in discord.js?
spare goblet
Use discord.js in built sharding manager i guess
earnest phoenix
can i show you something?
spare goblet
sharding is a method to split processes into multiple smaller processes to handle guilds
reef mantle
runs as flash cause cknat understand a fuck
earnest phoenix
spare goblet
it is required after 2.5k servers before your bot no longer works (aka doesnt login properly)
reef mantle
comes with Burger,Fries and Soda
earnest phoenix
i am sharding?
spare goblet
please stop roleplaying
spare goblet
Idk if you are
you could also simply be posting console.log('Shard 0 launched') 
but by the looks of it, perhaps?
earnest phoenix
Do you guys know why this would not make a square but a square like that?
ctx.moveTo(255, 150);
ctx.lineTo(295, 150);
ctx.lineTo(255, 195);
ctx.moveTo(255, 195);
ctx.lineTo(295, 195);
ctx.moveTo(295, 150);
ctx.lineTo(295, 195);
ctx.stroke();
ctx.closePath();```you want to make a square?
earnest phoenix
Yea
quartz kindle
then do 4 lineTo's
earnest phoenix
const { ShardingManager } = require('discord.js');
const manager = new ShardingManager('./index.js', {
totalShards: 'auto',
token: process.env.token
});
manager.spawn();
manager.on('shardCreate', (shard) => console.log(`Shard ${shard.id} launched`));
here
Confused
quartz kindle
moveTo(255,150); lineTo(295,150); lineTo(295,195); lineTo(255,195); lineTo(255,150)
spare goblet
like
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix yes that will shard automatically when needed
spare goblet
congrats
restive furnace
if you need to
vale garden
hi
earnest phoenix
@quartz kindle that worked but so like... I don't need to use moveTo() many times?
vale garden
TypeError: Cannot read property 'execute' of undefined
why am i getting this error
module.exports = {
name: 'math',
description: "used to perform mathematical operations",
cooldown: 0.01,
execute: (message, args) => {
}
}```looks normal to me
earnest phoenix
Are you sure it's coming from there?
vale garden
its happening when ido that command so
spare goblet
@earnest phoenix you didn't have to use moveto because when you were drawing the line, you were also "moving" the "pen" or the "dot"
if that makes sense
earnest phoenix
Oh i see
vale garden
even my index.js looks normal
case 'math':
bot.commands.get('math').execute(message, args);
break;
That's where it comes from
vale garden
but its normal
spare goblet
It usually says what line its on, you might wanna double check
earnest phoenix
It can't get the command
spare goblet
are you caching bot.commands properly?
spare goblet
try logging bot.commands and bot.commands.get('math') i guess
vale garden
let operation = args[1];
if (!args[1])
return message.channel.send("Enter the operation to be performed")
if (args[1] === "add") {
let a = args[2];
let b = args[3];
if (!args[2])
return message.channel.send("Enter the 2 values.");
if (!args[3])
return message.channel.send(
"Enter the 2 values like this: `t!math add 10 3`"
);
if (args[2] && args[3]) {
var valueOne = parseInt(args[2]);
var valueTwo = parseInt(args[3]);
var valueAnswer = Math.floor(valueOne % valueTwo);
message.channel.send(
`The sum of ${valueOne} + ${valueTwo} is equal to ${valueAnswer}`
);
}
}```is this correct
for v12
spare goblet
The command itself is tnot the issue
spare goblet
What you're having isn't the function itself
vale garden
what function
spare goblet
its that it cant even find the command file / cached command object properly in the first place
the execute function you created
spare goblet
vale garden
module.exports = {
name: 'math',
description: "used to perform mathematical operations",
cooldown: 0.01,
execute: (message, args) => {
suuuuuuuuuuuuuup
spare goblet
The issue is your CACHE doesn't HAVE THIS IN IT
vale garden
module.exports = {
name: 'math',
description: "used to perform mathematical operations",
cooldown: 0.01,
execute: (message, args) => {
let operation = args[1];
if (!args[1])
return message.channel.send("Enter the operation to be performed")
if (args[1] === "add") {
let a = args[2];
let b = args[3];
if (!args[2])
return message.channel.send("Enter the 2 values.");
if (!args[3])
return message.channel.send(
"Enter the 2 values like this: `t!math add 10 3`"
);
if (args[2] && args[3]) {
var valueOne = parseInt(args[2]);
var valueTwo = parseInt(args[3]);
var valueAnswer = Math.floor(valueOne % valueTwo);
message.channel.send(
`The sum of ${valueOne} + ${valueTwo} is equal to ${valueAnswer}`
);
}
}
It doesn't have tHIS ENTIRE OBJECT CACHED IN IT
spare goblet
Not the OBJECT'S execute FUNCTION
pure lion
so i wanna change the size of an image from a url, any ideas?
.setThumbnail(song.url({dynamic: true, size: 1012}))
wdym wdym
pure lion
its saying url isnt a function
spare goblet
I'm not saying that <command>.execute() isn't defined
sudden geyser
What is song
spare goblet
I'm saying <commandFile> isn't defined
vale garden
bruh it is
vale garden
all the other commands are working
vale garden
but
spare goblet
aka its not cached properly
earnest phoenix
🤔
vale garden
other commands are working
spare goblet
It doesn't matter whether all the other ones are working.
vale garden
wat
spare goblet
'math' is obviously not fetching from your cache properly
pure lion
What is
song
its the youtube video audio it downloaded to play, it can send the image but its too high res for some reason
spare goblet
That's why I told you to try console logging bot.commands.get('math')
and bot.commands
vale garden
ok
spare goblet
and making sure the response has one key: value where the key is exactly "math"
vale garden
case 'math':
bot.commands.get('math').execute(message, args);
break;
console.log(bot.commands.get('math').execute(message, args))
this is what i did
earnest phoenix
you're still helping him or her?
vale garden
and nothing is logging
pure lion
:0
spare goblet
thats because you already ended the switch case
long yew
how do i make it so when i write .start sobble it also adds sobble to my mons.json file?
spare goblet
:')
long yew
vale garden
oh
pure lion
spare goblet
sudden geyser
Why are you adding a switch case for each command when you could just save the .get to a variable and see if it exists
What type of food do you want in your mouth
earnest phoenix
lmao
long yew
how do i make it so when i write .start sobble it also adds sobble to my mons.json file?
help
xD
spare goblet
@long yew slice up the message response using args to figure out what they typed, make sure they chose one of the three valid responses, then if they did, add it to your db
if you dont understand what i said google "js string methods" <- this will help you be able to learn how to figure out what they typed by slicing
and stop spammin gthe channelw ith your question
restive furnace
@long yew but why 2 message listeners??
pure lion
how do i make it so when i write
.start sobbleit also adds sobble to my mons.json file?
@long yew dude im right here-
vale garden
ok i messed something up somehow
pure lion
@long yew but why 2
messagelisteners??
I was trying to explain this in dm um
spare goblet
and stop putting multiple message listeners for one purpose, you're upping your CPU n other resources for no reason
vale garden
nothing is logging
earnest phoenix
no way you use message listeners for every command
long yew
@restive furnace idk
vale garden
and im getting the error again
long yew
@pure lion dm
pure lion
kk
restive furnace
its annoying to dm ppl with help but ok
spare goblet
@vale garden literally copy and paste
console.log(bot.commands)
and search through the log for a key that says math
solemn latch
Put it after(programatically) where you require all your commands, but above the erroring line
vale garden
'math' => {
name: 'math',
description: 'used to perform mathematical operations',
cooldown: 0.01,
execute: [Function: execute]
im getting this
solemn latch
And that's your only command?
solemn latch
Then there's a problem
vale garden
its not
solemn latch
vale garden
its not my only one
solemn latch
It should log all your commands
restive furnace
spare goblet
@vale garden oh not sure why its not working then 
try console.log(bot.commands.get('math')) and see if execute is also defined in that case
sudden geyser
What does the command handler look like.
earnest phoenix
his status is a downer
i dont know how to use the dbl api thing to get server cout
count
restive furnace
spare goblet
you mean post server count?
earnest phoenix
yeah like on top.gg
move to #topgg-api
ill help there
ok
ok, hi so i have a little problem on the heroku thing, i hosted my bot, but is this problem, i think you all know it the problem when heroku cant "write" json files, i saw some sites where it says __ dirname casue on heroku the path is dif that the one on the laptop,
my question, after i do the __ dirname thing, will be anything else to do?
spare goblet
- I do not use heroku so my answer can be wrong
- No, I did not know the problem about heroku because I do not use heroku
- __dirname only returns the directory path iirc, could be wrong
earnest phoenix
rephrasing your question would help
also Heroku can't update json files in realtime
spare goblet
- if you're using json for a database, it's a terrible idea
earnest phoenix
@spare goblet what do you use?
solemn latch
any real database
spare goblet
um i use mysql
but you can use any "real" db ig
slender thistle
that isn't hosted on the same machine*
spare goblet
just anything thats not a local file
earnest phoenix
yh so mongodb is the option
spare goblet
I use DO, but any host usually works lol 
spare goblet
sqlite is also hosted on the same machine, very terrible for anything larger than like 1k servers lol
spare goblet
um well if they dont wanna use mongo there are also other options
earnest phoenix
1 i understand the database thing
i can swich is not a problem
but for me to be more easier i got json files
what was my problem
restive furnace
whats DO 
earnest phoenix
was how to make heroku
spare goblet
well if Auric is correct, even if your bot is in 1 server and you really want to use file database, it will notwork because of heroku's nature
digitalocean
earnest phoenix
paid?
spare goblet
no decent vps is free lol
digital ibex
if ur a student, u can get dg for free
earnest phoenix
so no one knows the answer cool
spare goblet
my bot's scale is way too large for a free host :')
earnest phoenix
nice help
digital ibex
via github tho
spare goblet
you CAN'T use heroku to edit files real time
spare goblet
earnest phoenix
yes mangodb
spare goblet
we all love mangoes
earnest phoenix
mongodb*
yep
no mangodb
stop getting it wrong
smh
me getting bullied cool
ok
thanks
cya
not really bullying
but ok
spare goblet
take a joke

digital ibex
what do u need
pure lion
me want to resize image so its lower resolution (from a url) but it no work (for context, song.url returns a url string for a youtube thumbnail)
.setThumbnail(song.url({dynamic: true, size: 1012}))
grr you didn't space it out <--- ignore that
digital ibex
it doesn't always work when resizing, its kinda weird, you're gonn have to get the right number, and use png if you're not already
earnest phoenix
use 1024
earnest phoenix
eh?
digital ibex
u can change it in ur clients options, but if u dont wanna do that u can just use replace

Hello
so in this server.. it has 110k.
and my bot says that it moderates only 19k from here.
pale vessel
caching
feral aspen
does anyone know the reason for this?
hm..
this is my code..
```bot.user.setActivity(`${bot.users.cache.size} members! || a!help````
how should it be?
pale vessel
you should use the .reduce and guild.memberCount
memberCount is the real member count
though they won't be unique
feral aspen
hm.. can you tell me the code that would be inside ${}
pale vessel
if you really want a precise user count, you would need to fetch all users
that option should be in the client options
refer docs
personally, i would say it's not worth it because of memory and stuff but if you still insist
feral aspen
hm.
sorry to ask.. as Im beginner
what would cache effect.. what would cache do if you include it?
pale vessel
your bot already caches members, just not all of them, only the ones that are online etc.
client.users.cache.size is the amount of users the bot cached, which is not an exact amount since not all users are cached
if you don't cache anything, you would need to fetch the member every time you need to see their info, which is a pain. this is where caching comes to action
if you decide to cache all users, it would take quite a bit of your memory to store all users
feral aspen
Hm.. okay!
pale vessel
if you still want to cache all users (to get the exact amount of users the bot serves), enable the "cache all users" in the client options
it could be called members instead of users
solemn latch
in the future, i belive that will be considered a privlaged intent
still merlin
Does anyone know why im getting this error?
solemn latch
break doesnt make any sense right there
feral aspen
Remove the break at there.
still merlin
but wont that make the rest of my code apart of my eval command? (below it)
solemn latch
return is how to stop a function, but you dont even need that there
pale vessel
the first if statement already handles that
still merlin
ok
solemn latch
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Guild?scrollTo=memberCount
@feral aspen
you can go through each guild, get the member count property and add them all together.
this will duplicate users(if your bot is in 2 guilds, and the same member is in both guilds, he gets counted twice)
solemn latch
more "space"?
feral aspen
woops
pale vessel
that's what i was referring, but yeah, duplicates
feral aspen
I meant memory
pale vessel
you can use the reduce function for that and no, it doesn't take memory
solemn latch
well, no. only caching every user does that
you can reduce member count?
oh duh
nvm
ignore that, i was thinking something else
feral aspen
😐
solemn latch
reduce is the right way
solemn latch
feral aspen
hm..
so what do i replace in here?
bot.user.setActivity(`${???????????????} members! || a!help
it was like that from before
```bot.user.setActivity(`${bot.users.cache.size} members! || a!help````
pale vessel
replace guilds with your client's guilds
it would be client.guilds
i think that's all
feral aspen
```bot.user.setActivity(`${bot.guilds.reduce((prev, next) => prev.memberCount + next.memberCount)} members! || a!help````
like that??????
🤦♂️
pale vessel
only one way to find out
pale vessel
probably
solemn latch
guilds.cache*
pale vessel
yep
solemn latch
guilds are already all cached
feral aspen
Ill try out now.
pale vessel
kind feel sluggish since it's 2am
pure lion
:0
feral aspen
for me its 10PM
pale vessel
crazy
solemn latch
hello other side of the world
pure lion
feral aspen
its saying Watching NON members..! 🤯
pure lion
s a n d e r r
pale vessel
NaN
solemn latch
nan?
feral aspen
Yes./
pale vessel
could it be because some guilds don't have memberCount?
