new Date(Date.now()).getTime() will return a unix timestamp @lusty quest (also how will a document be made after you peform the action)
@golden condor That's literally the same thing as just doingDate.now()
warm marsh
Although I don't know if that's what you need.
You don't need to pass Date.now() into new Date, It's kinda pointless.
long yew
@warm marsh ty so much it works now
golden condor
He said Date.now() returns milleseconds
lusty quest
sounds like a unix timestamp with extra steps
paper phoenix
So does getTime
earnest phoenix
@warm marsh that does not return the correct time
warm marsh
What are you trying to do?
tight plinth
Date.now() returns the milliseconds between January 1st,1970 and today
golden condor
I just read a couple stack forums and it said .getTime returned unix
earnest phoenix
My time => 17:11 => your function i tested => 12:18 @warm marsh
warm marsh
You have to change the locale
golden condor
^
warm marsh
But your image time won't be updated like embeds.
earnest phoenix
Changing locale 
golden condor
warm marsh
Inside the toLocaleString('localehere')
golden condor
try use moment
paper phoenix
const seconds = Date.now( ) / 1000 >> 0;
console.log( `Current UNIX time is ${ seconds }.` );
@golden condor i dont need the Unix Timestamp. i want that MongoDB gives me a Document where the timestamp < Date.now()
pure lion
does anyone have a tutorial for mongodb currency system?
lusty quest
well thats my database call function : client.getEndedAuctions = async time => { const data = await Data.findOne({ timestamp: {"$gt": time} }); if (data) return data; else return; };
and here i call it const time = new Date(Date.now()); const fauction = await client.getEndedAuctions(time);
maybe i need to use $gte
http://node0.s8s.app/F5D3 this is the timestamp in the database
and the time value is at 2020-06-26T12:58:22.895Z
still merlin
Can I have some help, I get this error with my eval command
paper phoenix
You're doing timestamp is greater than the current time?
still merlin
the eval command is
const args = message.content.split(" ").slice(1);
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "eval")) {
if (message.author.id !== "529770099285032980")
return message.channel.send(
"**error** Only the bot owner can execute this command!"
);
try {
const code = args.join(" ");
let evaled = eval(code);
if (typeof evaled !== "string") evaled = require("util").inspect(evaled);
message.channel.send(clean(evaled), { code: "xl" });
} catch (err) {
message.channel.send(
"`:x: Error preforming eval command`" + "(" + err + ")"
);
}
}
});```Shouldn't it be less than?
hasty sparrow
What is "clean"?
lusty quest
the timestamp in the database is always in the future. and i want to return only the timestamp that is in the past
hasty sparrow
Clearly you didn't define it, which is exactly what the error is telling you
paper phoenix
So if they're in the past, they'll be lt
still merlin
Saw it on a github turtorial
lusty quest
i think i know what bot framework he uses. there is a way to clean out the Client Keys etc
hasty sparrow
Don't just copy-paste
still merlin
but when I removed it I get 921937284684676 errors (11 errors)

lusty quest
so it will not return any sort of important stuff in a error

digital ibex
hi, with css or bulma, does anyone know how i can make it show a word and add somethign to show they're different things, so i've got rn:
how can i make it be soemthng like word 1 | word 2 | word 3 etc ?
paper phoenix
@digital ibex - Are they individual elements?
digital ibex
yeah, its just: html <table class="table"> <thead> <th>Custom Commands</th> </thead> <tbody class="table-body"> <% commands.forEach((command) => { %> <tr class="row"> <th><%= command.name %> </th> </tr> <% }) %> </tbody> </table>
wary basin
You could use borders and just use css nth child
digital ibex
on th, i done border-color: red; but nothing changed
wary basin
Have you tried border: 1px solid red;
wary basin
hmmm
paper phoenix
Tables may require that you change the border styles of the actual table, not just the cells
digital ibex
ah ha
paper phoenix
Like border-collapse and such
wary basin
Now just remove top and bottom
And you can use something like last child and first child to remove the left and right borders for them
paper phoenix
Why are you using a table for that anyhow?
digital ibex
i kinda like it, i think if i changes the colour and the background colour, change the font it wouldnt look bad
because
its going to go down, and after every like 10 commands, its going to go to a new page, and on that line, you can edit the command
if that makes sense
earnest phoenix
let lois = 0;

Is there a way to make a currency system, Like dank memer? Where its global
wary basin
Use a DB
lusty quest
use a Database
paper phoenix
But what's confusing me is that you're adding rows with tr... But it's actually adding columns according to your images
lusty quest
(dont use a file database)
wary basin
^^^
wary basin
You can use a mysql database. Thats fairly easy to setup for NodeJS
leaden rover
ok
earnest phoenix
Can somebody tell me how does this have an Unexpected token of '}'?

earnest phoenix
@earnest phoenix did u tried it without eval?
lusty quest
if you cant afford a database server. SQlite style databases like quickdb or Enmap are good in the beginning
earnest phoenix
No @earnest phoenix
Then try :d
Doesn't matter where you use it
are you sure
This works but turning that into that function gives that error
for(es of args.join(" ").split(/ +/)){
if(es.includes("es")){
lvs++
}
}
lvs```Ok, is there an NPM package?
lusty quest
depends on what database you want to use (yes)
leaden rover
ok
long yew
can someone help me?
lusty quest
what is your issue?
lusty quest
store the pokemon that should spawn into a DB. then get the command and check if the pokemon is spawned
lusty quest
depends on the database
lusty quest
the usually 3 used are Mysql, postgres and MongoDB
then there are SQLite databases like enmap and quick.db
long yew
ok
lusty quest
(sqlite is local on the machine)
lusty quest
idk. never used a json database
limber swan
I have a json db
And my problem is that when I run cmd that changes data in the json file, it change sthe data but the bot doesnt read it after it restarts, how can I fix it
(Small server)
lusty quest
did you load the file after a restart?
lyric mountain
not to say the horrible IO speed
lusty quest
and can DDos your own bot if you store a stupid amount of data
limber swan
Its 20 users wont use mongo or any other db. I know json isnt recommended
lusty quest
also you can get a free MongoDB instance
lyric mountain
also, the amount of stored data per user will be unbearable for a json db
lusty quest
you can store about 500MB of data in there (a efficent bot with 14k users can use about 200MB of data)
digital ibex
hello everyone
limber swan
alright alright,................................................. I will use mongo, god
lusty quest
its nothing against you. just json dbs are extremely fragile and inefficent
lyric mountain
you can store about 500MB of data in there (a efficent bot with 14k users can use about 200MB of data)
@lusty quest my bot with 100k+ users barely reached 100MB lol

does anyone know why my text isn't going into the middle of the table? my code is: html <thead style="text-align: center;"> <th style="color: tomato; display: inline-block;">Custom Commands</th> </thead>
lusty quest
then it depends on how much you store per user
digital ibex
i've got the text align to center on parent, and the child has display: inline-block
lyric mountain
@lusty quest this is the size of my database backup files, since they're compressed let's double the size, it's still 18M at most
lyric mountain
I store a "spawn and catch" data, credits system, customization/profile data, xp system, badges, tamagotchi data and most used commands/log about each user, and that's ONLY the member stuff
all that data would easily reach 1GB if I used a json db
lusty quest
wow and then only 100MB in the DB nice
i currently make a Auction Bot. that will store "only" a per Server Config and some data for the auctions
lyric mountain
nope, this is the total size of my db when restored from backup

where do i put that

@lusty quest sjsjjsjsjssjj thanks

and isnt newdata supposed to start like this const newData = new ReactionModel({

?
lusty quest
forget a part of the stuff. i have running the database stuff in a different file.
need to sort it out to post it here
opal plank
hmmmm
lusty quest
not entirely

the first thing u said is right?
lusty quest
client.createData = async data => {
const merged = Object.assign({ _id: mongoose.Types.ObjectId() }, data);
const newData = await new Data(merged);
return newData.save();

``` this function creates a databaseconst mongoose = require("mongoose");

change new Data to your model
@opal plank yes
opal plank
perfect
lemme ask you this then
const DiscordBotListAPI = require('dbl-api');
const dbl = new DiscordBotListAPI(config.botID, config.ggtoken, client);
requirement, now. If you look at the Client base dbl-api is, you'll see this
that forces a crash after a short period of time
lusty quest
you dont send the Authorisation Header
hardy vector
@opal plank i think u have to ask in #topgg-api
opal plank
does it not expect an auth header on the Client?
slender thistle
That doesn't look like an official library
lusty quest
you make a simple HTTP request i think. i use the Client but only for the Webhook
opal plank
using this
it might be for the webhook
though thats what im trying to hook into
since it already handles eventListeners, was hooking into it to trigger some commands
pale vessel
why not the official one? https://www.npmjs.com/package/dblapi.js

did not even know there was an official one, i'll port the code to use that one

how do i get the most recently called pokemon ID (the number from the array)(log it to a DB)
then when the person writes .catch, the pokemon name that was most recently called is logged into the mons.json
lyric mountain
don't use json for pokemon-related stuff
regarding the question, you gotta store the called ID in a global var
lyric mountain
dot dot dot
dude
first of all, why don't u use a switch-case?
also, you do know that there are HUNDREDS of pokemons, right?
solemn latch
Like 700 or 800
It would probably be good to have a pokemon handler, like a command handler
lyric mountain
lyric mountain
still
long yew
those pokemon
lyric mountain
hardcoding it is extremely bad optimized and time-wasting
you should make a loop handle that for u
long yew
what do u reccomend me doing?
lyric mountain
1 - Creating a generic pokemon embed
2 - Using a rng to get a pokemon from the list and saving it to a variable
3 - Showing the pokemon info on the generic embed
opal plank
a json contaning properties of each pokemon would work on your case. Say, name, region, rarity, image
load it all on memory and access when needed
misty sigil
did someone say JSON
opal plank
do NOT do database calls for something you'll be accesing constantly
yes, i DID say json
solemn latch
Lol
misty sigil
nice
lyric mountain
you could actually get the amount of files inside pokemon folder and get a random json from it
solemn latch
^
lyric mountain
this way you'd not need to load all jsons in memory
opal plank
that'd be using fs quite a bit, no?
misty sigil
making it less intensive on the random access memory
lyric mountain
according to stackoverflow:
const fs = require('fs');
const dir = './directory';
fs.readdir(dir, (err, files) => {
console.log(files.length);
});
imgur or something would work great for that
opal plank
{
"name":"Pikachu", "region":"Unova","rarity":"1","image":"someurl.com/pika"
}
list them all, keep it on memory
im thinking about buying a domain
lyric mountain
better yet:
opal plank
but my shitty isp prevents me from port fowardingh
lyric mountain
[
{
"name":"Pikachu", "region":"Unova","rarity":"1","image":"someurl.com/pika"
},
{
"name":"Raichu", "region":"Unova","rarity":"1","image":"someurl.com/rika"
}
]
instead of 800 files in this case
opal plank
thats what i meant
obj containing the info of each pokemon out there
all i can say is good luck building that
850+ pokemons will take a while
long yew
i am doing galar
opal plank
could be automated to some extent
solemn latch
Could grab it from the wiki

lyric mountain
he could probably use bulbapedia API
solemn latch

long yew
300 pokemon i think
opal plank
that'd work really well actually
opal plank
300 pokemon made by hand is still quite a bit
could at least get a premade array of all the pokemon and loop a forEach to help you at least build it
long yew
idk how to do that stuff
opal plank
unless you really eager on doing it all by hand
opal plank
.....
opal plank
you completely ignored both our switch case and json ideas, didnt you?
lyric mountain
if that's hard you should give up on pokecord-esque features
opal plank
what part of it is hard?
lyric mountain
they ain't easy to make
paper phoenix
@long yew - regarding your image, there's a chance that none of those execute.
long yew
all of it is hard
@long yew - regarding your image, there's a chance that none of those execute.
@paper phoenix how?
if that's hard you should give up on pokecord-esque features
@lyric mountain it isn't gonna be like pokecord that much
opal plank
you are trying to chew more than you can bite currently
paper phoenix
It's picking a new random each time. So that second if, it could roll a 1.
opal plank
your options are to learn how to properly do it, or give up on it if you arent motivated
we are here to help, but you'll likely not be spoonfed
long yew
kk i am motivated
It's picking a new random each time. So that second
if, it could roll a 1.
@paper phoenix how?
opal plank
try first doing what Kuu sugested, make a generic embed
lusty quest
to do the 300 db entries once i would get a proper DB first. makes handling it way easyer
paper phoenix
@long yew - Each time you can random_pokemom, it ois a new number. It could pick a number you've previously checked for.
long yew
i do have embeds
opal plank
depending on how often its being called its better to have it easilly accessible rather than doing DB calls every request
long yew
@long yew - Each time you can
random_pokemom, it ois a new number. It could pick a number you've previously checked for.
oh
opal plank
or make a global variable that can be accesed for the function
even though i dislike globals
long yew
this bot is gonna take me like 5 years
opal plank
learning a language isnt suppose to be quick
from the looks of it, you jumping head on something completely unknown
solemn latch
You have to want to learn the language tho
long yew
i doooooooo
paper phoenix
@long yew - Think about it like I had a function to flip a coin. If you have:
if( flip( ) === 'heads' )
doStuff( );
else if( flip( ) === 'tails' )
otherStuff( );
That second if flips again. And that second flip could be heads.
long yew
hmmm
opal plank
there are so many wrong things in that code, we usually just point you towards a better direction to accomplish what you want
like Stev said, you want to generate a number once
if you REALLY want to follow your way of thinking, start by doing something like
let n = randomGenerator()```
then access Nalso switch cases
paper phoenix
So, if taking your approach, it should be changed to:
const pokemon = random_pokemon( arr );
if( pokemon === 1 )
stuff( );
else if( pokemon === 2 )
...
But, as others have pointed out, switch.
opal plank
though for what i said, you wouldnt need any of that if you use a json to keep the object loaded in memory for being quickly accesible
generate the number and then match it with the object size
earnest phoenix
@paper phoenix use switch() or the code will be as inefficient as yandere sim
opal plank
index it
lets say the pokemon.json contains all 300 pokemon, what you can do is check for size if you put it on a map or something, then access is by number on index
instead of having a case for each pokemon
its a much better approach, nowhere near perfect though
earnest phoenix

which will be useful if you have more than 20 commands

lol i was gonna say that
opal plank
If(something) do (what?)
misty sigil
but half the time i give help it doesnt work lol
quartz kindle
also, you're confusing single line ifs with multi line ifs
topaz fjord
that code just gave me an aneurysm
misty sigil
same turtle, same
topaz fjord
time to leave Tim to this because he specializes in this
quartz kindle
in the code above you're doing ```js
if(message.author.bot) {
return
} else if(command === "leaderboard") {
}
which is likely not what you want
still merlin
;-;
opal plank
if (command === 'balance') {
message.channel.send('Your balance.' + message.author.balance)
}
else if (command === 'duel') {
if(message.author.bot) return;
}
else if (command === 'leaderboard') {
if(message.author.bot) return;
if(!args[2]) {/* stuff */}
}```i was hoping you'd notice
topaz fjord
question: have you learned js
opal plank
likely not
topaz fjord
also no @opal plank
still merlin
question: have you learned js
I know the basic's-
topaz fjord
there's no need to put if(message.author.bot) return in every single command
haughty mirage
@prime storm
opal plank
make it global
topaz fjord
just put it at the beginning of the message event
opal plank
^^
opal plank
you know scopes?
still merlin
no .-.
opal plank
let a = 1
if(something) {
let b = 2
}
console.log(a)
console.log(b)
what would happen here?
dont run this code, its just logic
trying to teach you a quick lesson on scopes
still merlin
A is 1 B is 2 and the if something is (Havent learnt yet) and your logging a b
opal plank
b would return undefined
still merlin
ok
opal plank
b is inside this scope
if i moved console.log(b) right after let b = 2 it would work fine
cuz it can access that scope
same way for the commands you are doing
still merlin
ok

@hardy vector i think you somehow try to overwrite it wrong
still merlin
.-. Its not related I just wanted to mention I'm still learning like basic stuff

did you create it or update it?
opal plank
ah, i see
lusty quest
@hardy vector thats the wrong syntax for retriving data
hardy vector
wait so what do i do
misty sigil
how do i get avatarURL of a message author
opal plank
author has the url property
lusty quest
did you want to Create, Update or get the data?
misty sigil
does message.author return the user or member object?
lusty quest
message.member @misty sigil
lusty quest
@hardy vector i guess you want to update the data. then replace findOne with updateOne
pale vessel
does
message.authorreturn the user or member object?
@misty sigilmessage.authorreturns user andmessage.memberreturns member
misty sigil
so message.author.avatarURL?
opal plank
displayAvatarURL
pale vessel
yeah
author and member works
avatarURL() works too
you should use displayAvatarURL since it returns default avatars if the user didn't set one
opal plank
oh yeah i forgot that works too
pale vessel
displayURL returns ?string so it's not guaranteed to have a result

wait? why did you want to get the user object of a member?

@summer torrent get ur ass in here ma boi
@earnest phoenix

it would be easyer to get message.author and message.mentions.users.first()
earnest phoenix

user object of member, im making a user info command
opal plank
technically bots can only be used in testing right? not sure if doing an eval here would be fine, since it likely doesnt have perm to post here regardless
misty sigil
yea

much easier to show it here right away than going and showing an example in testing

@hardy vector i guess you want to update the data. then replace findOne with updateOne
@lusty quest wait but they told me i was overwriting it somewhere

Virtual private server

or you could host a bot on a rasbery PI

no free hosting is 24/7

Free option - rasbery PI hosting. (Ideal for small bots)
Expensive or cheap option - vps. (Ideal for big bots)

@misty sigil that just returns a date, which defaults to the OS's timezone you can use <Date>.toUTCString() to get the gmt string (gmt and utc are basically the same)
gmt is just utc+0 anyways

HI, i have this code: js switch (message) { case message.content.length: embed.fields.push({ name: 'Content', value: message.content.slice(0, 350), inline: true }); embed.fields.push({ name: 'Deleted By', value: `<@!${us}>`, inline: true }); break; case message.attachments.length: embed.image = { url: message.attachments[0].url }; embed.fields.push({ name: 'Content', value: message.content.slice(0, 350), inline: true }); embed.fields.push({ name: 'Deleted By', value: `<@!${us}>`, inline: true }); break; } and when a message gets deleted, its just saying a messgae has been deleted with no fields, i have this switch statement to add the fields.
any ideas what im doing wrong?

hi, im kinda confused how to explain this. when i delete an image, it logs js [ { width: 910, url: 'https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/702241622926295092/726153425804591164/unknown.png', size: 29349, proxy_url: 'https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/702241622926295092/726153425804591164/unknown.png', id: '726153425804591164', height: 514, filename: 'unknown.png' } ] so i do message.attachments[0].url and it gets the image, but doesn't embed..
it doesn't embed for some reason... where as https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/702241622926295092/726144270494597240/unknown.png does embed
digital ibex
you can try learning javascript
quick copper
into this
bold sundial
do something like let ImageEmbed = message.attachments[0].url then create a normal embed message.channel.send(ImageEmbed)
@digital ibex ^
digital ibex
im confused what thats gonna do...
quick copper
CalumT Can you help me
digital ibex
my issue, is that it doesn't embed. no idea why, it was embedding before, and now its not
bold sundial
CalumT Can you help me
@quick copper using => is for a function which reqEvent isn't a function
quick copper
amd what should i changed for?

try proxyURL @digital ibex
digital ibex
i tried that too, still doesn't embed for some reason
wait, proxy_url or proxyURL ?
pale vessel
proxy_url, my bad
digital ibex
yeah, that one doesn't embed either

what do you mean by "doesn't embed" by the way
it doesn't show up on discord or it doesn't show up in an embed?

pale vessel
that's because it's access denied
it probably works on an actual embed where you set the image as
digital ibex
and doesn't show up in the discord embed, i replace it w my avatar and does
quartz kindle
@digital ibex both images are deleted from discord when a message is deleted
the urls you get might still work for a few seconds but they will eventually be gone
digital ibex
oh
quartz kindle
so both the embed and the url will stop working
pure lion
GUYS

oof

if you want to preserve the image, you need to download it and resend it as a new image (if there is enough time to download it)

did you use registerFont()?

its good practice to preload the fonts you use, even if they are system fonts, to prevent possible issues
quartz kindle
on some systems for some reason it doesnt find system fonts some times

Can someone run me through what I'd need to make a bot dashboard

domain names and dns?
quartz kindle
there's always a chinese kid thats better than you btw
quartz kindle
@warm marsh if you want to buy a domain name for your website/dashboard
pure lion

Would it not come under knowledge of "dns" though?
earnest phoenix
running a website on your home network isn't the smartest idea
pure lion
I may or may not have kickass internet

you could put them together i guess, but buying a domain is kinda different than configuring it (i did put them together under a single comma separator)

I really wanna be verified okay

Fair enough.

it doesn't matter, you're actively exposing your home network to ddos attacks and exposing your ip to anyone lol

@earnest phoenix not canvas related, but found this in the sharp github maybe it can provide some info https://github.com/lovell/sharp/issues/1162
which links to this https://github.com/lovell/sharp/issues/1277
earnest phoenix
yep
quartz kindle
not sure how canvas uses pango behind the scenes, but its possible that the issue has to do with concurrency
are you doing concurrent drawing of some sort?
quartz kindle
can you show code?
earnest phoenix
yh ill sourcebin
ivory pebble
Is this happening to anyone else?
amber fractal
It isnt meant to show anything
you'd get a request to your webserver
not the best for accessibility reasons though, I agree.
unless it said that it sent a request, which I actually forget if it's meant to
I havent have a bot on dbl in a while
ivory pebble
@amber fractal It shows a pop up
Its not even sending any requests
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
And I try to vote for any bot it says there is an error
quartz kindle
@earnest phoenix 2 thoughts: i'd move the registerfont to before the canvas is created, just to make sure, ie right after canvas is required. also, i'd probably do the same for all async functions such as loadImage. Im pretty sure canvas should be well protected for this, but its quite possible that the context switching here could lead to unforeseen issues
for example, you start drawing, you stop drawing to load an image, while the image is loading another command starts drawing on another canvas before the previous is finished
in theory this shouldnt cause any issues, but who knows, its better to be safe
limber swan
someone uses mongodb?
quartz kindle
also im not sure what adding "not-rotated" to the font does, you can try removing it to see if there's any changes
earnest phoenix
na I didn't have it there before
I added it to see if it does anything different
quartz kindle
the issue with pango font loading on windows is quite recent, about 1 month old, while the last node-canvas release is almost a year old
earnest phoenix
yh saw it on github
quartz kindle
some possible suggested fixes is using registerFont with the full font url from the windows fonts folder
calm goblet
And I try to vote for any bot it says there is an error
@ivory pebble I had that issue a few days ago. Is your internet good?
earnest phoenix
some possible suggested fixes is using registerFont with the full font url from the windows fonts folder

you can use fetch to get uncached members
