@autumn aspen You need to put that in a function, or in the case of discord.js in a client.on() method. Otherwise it will not fire.

@steep cedar
const PREFIX = "!";```or whatever the event's name is
solemn latch
Prefixes can be your cache, you can make it anyway you want.
For example
.get can get what you want, if it doesn't exist returns the default.
.set can set your cache and update it in the db.
Or it can be your db directly and you can cache another way.
steep cedar
@steep cedar
const PREFIX = "!";```
@autumn aspen Write variables either in camelCase or snake_case. That is just ugly. And yes, I know that. I want to allow every server to store their own prefix in a database so one server can have prefix "!" while another uses the prefix "?"
solemn latch
The structure can be what you want
earnest phoenix
so will bot.user.setPresence({activity:{name:"yeet"},status:"dnd"}) work?
steep cedar
Prefixes can be your cache, you can make it anyway you want.
For example
.get can get what you want, if it doesn't exist returns the default..set can set your cache and update it in the db.

@steep cedar quick.db
that's what i use
for my bot's terrible economy system
slender thistle
I've been reading this channel for the past few days and I'm not taking that opinion out of the blue
steep cedar
Take a look at the docs and understand basic JS syntax and how stuff works. Then you can go on. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript MDN is a reliable source for all things JS.
that's what i use
@earnest phoenix Okay thank you.
strange trout
You could store prefixes in a collection or map
client.prefixes = new Collection
client.on('message' () => {
const prefix = client.prefixes.get(message.guild.id);
// rest of logic here
});

steep cedar
You could store prefixes in a collection or map
client.prefixes = new Collection client.on('message' () => { const prefix = client.prefixes.get(message.guild.id); // rest of logic here });
@strange trout That I then need to store and fetch once the bot restarts
solemn latch
I've never used quick.db
I use mysql and a few tsdb's
strange trout
When a guild changes the prefix simply update it in the collection as well
steep cedar
Yes, I can do that with Maps thats no problem. I just need it to stay available after restarting the bot.
earnest phoenix
i use uncomplicatedenoughtobeunderstandablebya1yearold solutions

That's is possible but maybe not the best way to approach a scenario.

why do all tutorials on yt show discord.js v11
autumn aspen

In my case, get gets from the cache, if its not in the cache check the db.
If the db doesn't have that row, get the default one and add the default to the cache for that guild
earnest phoenix
KOMMUNIST
Welp why error?
@autumn aspen it is literally defined as an event
do you want that or smth else
and you sure the role works?
steep cedar
1) Fetch Collection from DB server
2) Check if message from specific guild starts with set prefix in Collection
3) If, run command
4) After somebody changes command, change the Collection and update the db with the updated Collection
Correct?
digital ibex
bot.on is a callback function
earnest phoenix
and can you show your errors
steep cedar
imma go run EVERYSINGLECOMMAND my bot has in order to check if i broke smth
@earnest phoenix If you knew what exactly you were doing there wouldn't be a need for that.

Learn JavaScript like you've been told. You don't have any idea what you're doing even after getting help from multiple people@autumn aspen

Look, it is a lot more fun to write proper JS and know why stuff works. Read normal JS docs, then you will have way way less problems with discordjs but 99% of problems you have here are because of incorrect use of JavaScript, not the library discordjs.org

steep cedar
Exactly
slender thistle
WHat gift was it?
@autumn aspen did you not read my messages
earnest phoenix
shivaco warn him
autumn aspen
Oh yeah
steep cedar
Should be called guildOnJoin much rather, create is a bit misleading
earnest phoenix
(why telling a mod to do stuff)
autumn aspen
CHill I just wondered
raw ravine
If i wanna host my JDA music bot on heroku, what should be the content of the Procfile
tulip ledge
Well no a new guild object is created
slender thistle
The event guildCreate is fired whenever your bot joins a guild or a guild becomes available
steep cedar
Well no a new guild object is created
@tulip ledge oh yeah
tulip ledge
So it's not middleading
earnest phoenix
Should be called guildOnJoin much rather, create is a bit misleading
@steep cedar by should you mean it is an alternative?
autumn aspen
@slender thistle why can I ping all moderators and admins?
steep cedar
So it's not middleading
@tulip ledge ur right
slender thistle
Will you please
steep cedar
does it give you the new guild as argument?
slender thistle
keep this channel on topic
tulip ledge
???
autumn aspen
Ok
tulip ledge
Wut
slender thistle
not you
steep cedar
oh ok
tulip ledge
- I just said guilds are objects
- It returns the object when called
Arguments are things you pass
So code can never give you arguments
earnest phoenix
guilds are objects where we peeps try to fit inside
earnest phoenix
upto 200k in a normal server and 450k for verified servers
slender thistle
the name of the variable depends on you
steep cedar
the object is saved in a variable
@slender thistle That's what I mean
earnest phoenix
can someone link me the text channel create discordjs link again?
So could the guildCreate event be used to send a message when the bot joins a server?
tulip ledge
Yes
earnest phoenix
Ok nice
slender thistle
So could the guildCreate event be used to send a message when the bot joins a server?
@earnest phoenix Yes but you would have to guess where to send the message
steep cedar
client.on('guildCreate', createdGuild => {...})
What is createdGuild called here? I'm mixing up syntax right now. I thought it would be an argument. Or is that a property?
Confused
slender thistle
createdGuild is an argument passed to the "arrow function"
tulip ledge
When it fires you can loop through the channels and check if you have perms to send messages then send a message in there
slender thistle
imagine it like this
autumn aspen
Can someone send me the docs of where u do so ur bot gives a role when someone joins?
earnest phoenix
Can someone send me the docs of where u do so ur bot gives a role when someone joins?
@autumn aspen
goto discordjs.org and search and STAHP BEGGING HERE
steep cedar
Can someone send me the docs of where u do so ur bot gives a role when someone joins?
@autumn aspen You need a event that fires when somebody joins and then use the argument this event will most probably give you and add a role. That's two different actions.
please learn proper js first

earnest phoenix
???
steep cedar
bot.on("someEvent", eventName => {});
//is this the correct syntax for events?
@earnest phoenix Not quite
cinder patio
It's correct, but also, you could have multiple parameters passed by the event
autumn aspen
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error);```
Guys is this the command u type when someones join?eventName should rather be the object you are passed with the event. That is different from event to event.
tulip ledge
bot.on("someEvent", (eventName, otherParameter) => {});
upper thistle
what is the best way to have your bot DM you, when you dont specifically summon it, IE on it joining a server or something
steep cedar
.then(console.log) .catch(console.error);``` Guys is this the command u type when someones join?
@autumn aspen No, thats how you set a role to a guildMember object. READ
bot.on("someEvent", (eventName, otherParameter) => {});
@tulip ledge You don't get the eventName as parameter
autumn aspen
oh ok
tulip ledge
@steep cedar what are utalking about?
earnest phoenix
bot.on("someEvent", (eventName, otherParameter) => {});
@tulip ledge so stuff like message and guildCreate work normally without the extra params?
tulip ledge
Yes
autumn aspen
But I cant find where i setup command so when someones joins it gives a role
tulip ledge
eventName should rather be the object you are passed with the event. That is different from event to event.
@steep cedar The name can be flexible like in functions they don't have to be a specific name
earnest phoenix
ChickenDev i love chickens expecially those who can use computers
steep cedar
@tulip ledge so stuff like message and guildCreate work normally without the extra params?
@earnest phoenix Depends what you want to do. WHen you want to use the content from a message for example you use the first argument.
client.on('message', message => {
client.log(message);
}
This will give you all information that you have about the message that triggered the function
slender thistle
number of passed arguments depends on the event itself but how to name them is up to you entirely
console.log you mean, not client.log
earnest phoenix
ok so off to docs
tulip ledge
client.log
steep cedar
@steep cedar The name can be flexible like in functions they don't have to be a specific name
@tulip ledge I know, but calling it "eventName" isn't semantic at all
Yeah you can call it whatever you want sure
I know that
But in this case I thought it was a bit misleading
client.log
@tulip ledge ?
earnest phoenix
so does guildCreate work without extra stuff?
tulip ledge
And you saying it's not a parameter. If you look in the source of discordjs the eventNames are used as parameters and then returned therefor they are parameters
Yes
steep cedar
Depends on what you want to do
Everything works without extra stuff
It depends what your google is. If you want to work with the object that fired the function, youll need an argument. For example, when you want to greet the owner of the server that fired guildCreate you will need the first argument (what is the server that fired the event, justa reminder) to find out more about who has the highest perms or has the owner property, for example.
THis is a bit complicated for the beginning but once you get it it makes sense
Just experiment
earnest phoenix
why ping me and run away. Yes I have 41 screenshots all dumped on my desktop
steep cedar
What is that dude
MEESUCKS is a great name btw
but please move the discussion to #general
tulip ledge
If you want to work with the object that fired the function, youll need an argument. For example, when you want to greet the owner of the server that fired guildCreate you will need the first argument (what is the server that fired the event, justa reminder) to find out more about who has the highest perms or has the owner property, for example.
You're just talking nonsense at this point literally 80% of what you said here is wrong
cinder patio
The second argument of the on function is a function, and functions can have an unlimited amount of parameters, you can do:
SomeEventEmitter.on("someEvent", (a, b, c, d, e, f, g) => {
console.log(a, b, c, d, e, f, g);
});
And only the ones provided by the thing that emits the event matter:
SomeEventEmitter.emit("someEvent", 1, 2, 3, 4);
The event gets called, and 1, 2, 3, 4, undefined, undefined, undefined gets console logged.
tulip ledge
First of all objects don't fire functions
events !== functions
arguments aren't given by the event as arguments are things you pass to a function
to find the owner you don't have to look at the highest perm
earnest phoenix
does this work:
bot.on("guildCreate", guild => {
guild.channels.create(/*/somestuff/*/);
});

this is the amount of sent bytes per second my bot has. for some reason, it randomly spikes by like 10x and then my bot gets rate limited and temp banned for an hour. does anyone know why this happens?
sudden geyser
Are you able to trace what's happening in order for the spike to occur (aka what code is running)
tulip ledge
bad code
sudden geyser
an example would be an infinite loop
near ether
i dont think there are any
ive tested my bot extensively and its been running for like 7+ months now
lusty quest
its possible that you access an API?
(outside of the Discord API)
i had the issue that i dont filter out some stuff from the API request. this resulted that the API returned pretty large datapacks (about 2 million entries) this got pm2 to panic and lagged the entire server
or did you have a disconnect reovery? if yes limit in pm2 how often the bot gets restarted after a crash
near ether
my shards dont crash so i dont have to deal with restarts
also i dont use any apis except discords
i used to, but i got rid of them
well besides top.gg

whamed = message.guild.members.find(m => (message.content.includes(m.nickname) || message.content.includes(m.user.username)));
whamed.addRole("bunch of numbers");
any reason why this might not be adding the role to the whamed GuildMember?
the idea is to find the member that was included in the message, and add the role to them
i know the ID isn't the issue, I think whamed might be the wrong type but I don't know why that's happening
lusty quest
@near ether maybe a loop that has no defined end?
lusty quest
maybe a timer?

does anyone know if there is any way to have an event listen to boosts in djs v12
or, does it fire a role event when they earn the role from boosting

[discord.js] I use this method to react in a specific order to the same message. I only have one problem, the reaction time between them is very long. I've seen bots that do it much faster, you know how I can solve it?
lusty quest
he got a decent documentation and some good explanations
@balmy knoll make the first reaction then chain .then()
also you cant get it faster, the API limits how fast you can react
the same thing we had a few days ago and its API limited
pure lion
*cryig*
lusty quest
enmap is pretty easy to use @pure lion
but needs a lot of ram if you store much data
balmy knoll
The speed that there are between the reactions of my bot and those of other bots that I personally use are really very different
pure lion
yk what fuck it im moving to sql
lusty quest
its possible that other languages dont have the limit from D.js
pure lion
im assuming its persistent?
solemn latch
I've seen people show very slow reaction times(much slower than the 1/s of djs).
I've never seen anyone figure out why
lusty quest
yes its sqlite
pure lion
no, big boy sql
lusty quest
yes its persistent
lusty quest
you will cry

so nothing changes, great

like i had a command that retrived 25 Items from a API. i made 25 Embed Fields for it, later i made a command that retrived a undefined amount of data from a API so i learned how to Chunk it and made the Embed dynamic. With this knowledge i rewrote the command with the 25 Embed fields, was a good thing
pure lion
wait how can you make dynamic embeds?
strange trout
paginated?
pure lion
is there a way to forEach addfields?
lusty quest
i use a for loop for the addField stuff
hidden lynx
Just push the items to fields array
lusty quest
i have a array that contains the data i want to display in the embed. with array.length i can define where the loop ends
hidden lynx
Just do it with a foreach
pure lion
oki doki
strange trout
I just chuck it and then generate the page based off the chuck for said page
chunk(array, size) {
return Array.from({ length: Math.ceil(array.length / size) }, (_, i) => array.slice(i * size, i * size + size));
}
for (var i=0; i<chunked[n].length; i++) {
embed.addField(chunked[n][i].item, `Place: ${chunked[n][i].place}\n Rarity: ${chunked[n][i].rarity}\n Dropchance: ${chunked[n][i].chance}%`);
}
``` i have a part of the above this that chunks down a array with a undefined amount of keys (easy 2k keys) down to 10 keys per sub array async function chunk(arr, len) {
let chunks = [],
i = 0,
x = arr.length;
while (i < x) {
chunks.push(arr.slice(i, i += len));
}
return chunks;
}
```this is how i chunk it down

},

hey, i've made an interface where you can login and see the servers you can manage online, to after make a web dashboard for my bot, but when i try to display only the servers that the user can manage it returns me this error (in ejs) :
2| <h1 class="display-3">Dashboard</h1>
3| <ul class="list-unstyled">
>> 4| <% user.guilds.forEach(guild => {
5| var usr = guild.member(user)
6|
7| if(!usr.hasPermission("MANAGE_GUILD")) return;
guild.member is not a function```would anyone know how i can fix it ?
strange trout
Have you looked at the docs
hasty lotus
yes i do
exactly what i've done
but it's not js
so idk
and it's not a guild of a bot
it's a guild of a user
so it might be different
but idk
that's why i'm asking
๐
autumn aspen
Guys why does it dont work no errors?
hasty lotus
is user UserResolvable
?
@solemn latch well i guess, bcs it's the guild of the user :/
lusty quest
limit for deleting messages is 100
autumn aspen
Yes and I did 99?
strange trout
Why don't you do that when you handle the route
autumn aspen
@solemn latch why is it wrong?
solemn latch
which suggests this is custom built
lusty quest
does it say you dont have permissions @autumn aspen
hasty lotus
but it displays all the guilds
hasty lotus
express server
lusty quest
@autumn aspen why MessageFlags?
hasty lotus
the users logs in with passport
proven lantern
is it possible to see the create date of a bot you dont own?
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ClientApplication?scrollTo=createdTimestamp
solemn latch
so you cant do user.guild(user)
because (user) needs to be UserResolvable
lusty quest
this is wrong use message.channel
strange trout
router.get('/servers', require('path to your middle ware'), (req, res) => {
// Sort out that logic here
const guilds = req.user.guilds;
res.render('thing', {
user,
guilds,
});
});
You should do it there
hasty lotus
is it possible to see the create date of a bot you dont own?
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ClientApplication?scrollTo=createdTimestamp
@proven lantern yes, createdAt is a property of user
strange trout
And then just pass the filtered guilds
Then you can iterate over them and make it pretty on the front end
proven lantern
@hasty lotus thanks, i'll try that out
hasty lotus
so i filter the guilds before sending the page ?
autumn aspen
Is it supposed to be a MessageFlag above all???
lusty quest
@autumn aspen replace MessageFlag with channel

hasty lotus
yeah sry
strange trout
first fetch the user guilds because discord oath doesn't give you the entire guild object. Then just filter out the guilds that the bot isn't in and finally filter the guilds that the user doesn't have perms for
opal plank
its usually better if you are checking permissions to use final
not guild permissions
because channel overwrites
spare goblet
Well you could listen for new messages then check
message.type
@sudden geyser you mean that system message thing? soz for ping
o yeah it seems to be system message type
ah okei thanks for your help 
earnest phoenix
So i got a play command here i made, the message collector in the middle of the code works fine if you try to queue a song but don't answer in 15 seconds, it will stop the collector and emit the end event, causing it to check if the collected message size is 0 then say you didn't respond in 15 seconds, but... If you queue a song and after this song try to queue a song and not respond, it won't check if it responded or not in 15 seconds, it just continues the session and causes an error ofc
https://pastebin.com/k3UQ82zV

I'd do guild perms
Wouldn't want a member who has perms over one channel to be able to login into dashboard and change settings that affect the entire server
Depends though

There is a lot of JS here. What about some python? I have question about if anybody know how could I make bot leave after being some time inactive?

leave voice channel
slender thistle
well there's asyncio.sleep and... hold on let me open the docs...
snow urchin
Ok so I have the following, simple lines of code, why~ when the user aint a verified dev, does it say they are?
const user = message.mentions.users.first() || client.getUser(args[0] || message.author.id),
guildMember = client.getMember(user.id, message),
userFlags = user.flags.toArray(),
bot = user.bot;
const verifiedDev = !bot ? userFlags.filter(x => x.includes("VERIFIED_DEVELOPER")) ? client.Constants.Emojis.Badges.Verified.Developer : "" : "";
@snow urchin why filter?
fast glen
Yeah thats good. I have idea how could I do it. But it would be somehow bad
earnest phoenix
Just do
userFlags.includes() @snow urchin
fast glen
with some asyncio.sleep
earnest phoenix
@strange trout look at @snow urchin code, that is not an object... Only object has , after every line or whatever that even is
slender thistle
Yeah thats good. I have idea how could I do it. But it would be somehow bad
@fast glen Which part are you confused on?

const x = 1,
y = 2,

Oo
fast glen
I was thinking on something like this:
when bot stops playing the function will start. If the bot would still not be playing after some time he will leave.
I have problem with that it will spot some time when the song just ended and person wants to start another song
But I have idea how I could fix this problem
marble scaffold
How do you create a levelling up system?
Does anyone have ideas?
strange trout
The formatting makes it look confusing
@marble scaffold There's lots to a leveling system
Does your bot have a database?
marble scaffold
Yes
slender thistle
when bot stops playing the function will start
A custom event, possibly?
marble scaffold
Interesting
fast glen
yeah thats what I was thinking about
slender thistle
in that event you assign the vc ID to a global dictionary (attached to the client object), sleep for a while, and see if ID is still there
strange trout
Do you know about making xp formulas? What type of growth do you want: linear, exponential, logarithmic etc.
slender thistle
on play command, you remove the ID from the dictionary
fast glen
Yes that could do. I first thought on something like reseting the function but then I found that nothing like this exists in python
earnest phoenix
So i got a play command here i made, the message collector in the middle of the code works fine if you try to queue a song but don't answer in 15 seconds, it will stop the collector and emit the end event, causing it to check if the collected message size is 0 then say you didn't respond in 15 seconds, but...

Just to come back to my question, i searched for some open source web bot dashboard, and i foud the dashboard of the "guidebot" by an idiot's guide (on github), which uses Discord.EvaluatedPermissions like this :
const renderTemplate = (res, req, template, data = {}) => {
const baseData = {
bot: client,
path: req.path,
user: req.session.user
};
res.render(path.resolve(`${templateDir}${path.sep}${template}`), Object.assign(baseData, data));
};
//other things
const perms = Discord.EvaluatedPermissions;
renderTemplate(res, req, "dashboard.ejs", {perms});```And then this in the ejs file :
```js
<% user.guilds.cache.forEach(guild => {
const permsOnGuild = new perms(guild.permissions);
if(!permsOnGuild.has("MANAGE_GUILD")) return;
%>```How does this work exactly ? I tried to run the dashboard but it looks deprecated, because of newer djs versions, so i don't know if this is still functionning ^^and please ping me
