You know a few languages, so you should catch on pretty fast

C# has some interesting things like Interfaces and abstractions though
Delegates, funcs, actions and other lamba/linq
Which are seen less in some other languages
lusty quest
funny thing is i started to learn GO and py a little bit but never got into it bcs my bots are written in Js. (also had some issues with getting a GO enviroment running for development)
faint prism
If you want to see how similar JS and C# bots are, here's the tutorial I watched for a C# bot with discord.net:

So writing a privacy policy kind of thing for a bot is necessary or Optional?

is not that i need to throw it in my brain together with extensive kowlede in G-Code, Docker, K8s, Linux Stuff, Windows Stuff, Networking Stuff, Useless Stuff and the languages i know

well know lua and js. some Py and Go. Then English, German and some Dutch

also G-Code is some sort of Programing but on a way lower level and completly different usecase

Go for C#

ohh right forgot that i learned some HTML and CSS

Eyyyy
Also ejs it counts as a separate lang because of the file ext jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja

@west quarry @earnest phoenix keep bot commands in testing channels please

i copied someones code that uses selenium and chrome extension so i have the somethingsomething.click
i can click but i don't know which makes the middle mouse button click

That's one way lol

Selenium probably has that ability

sorry my bad starman
ashen shard
@faint prism profile_btn.click() is this usage correct?
faint prism
yourSeleniumDriverInstance.click() would probably be a left-click is my guess
ashen shard
yes
faint prism
I'm sure there is a mm btn click function somewhere in the docs
faint prism
Are you using the pylib I sent or selenium?
ashen shard
well the program i downloaded was originally using selenium, i just wanted to make a few adjustements
so selenium
but can't i use both?
faint prism
I'm familiar w/ selenium but not the lib I sent.
Selenium is a webclient driver. So most of your interactions in a chrome tab should be handled with it alone
ashen shard
so what do you recommend to turn profile_btn.click() into profile_btn.3rdbuttonclick()
pure lion
Define the 3rdButtonClick() as the third button click code
faint prism
So if selenium doesn't contain a middle mouse click, the docs say you can create your own via ActionChains
https://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/api.html#module-selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains
So maybe something like: ActionChains(driver).key_down(Keys.MIDDLEMOUSE) Idk if that's a valid entry in the Keys enum though, just a guess

the Database is running MongoDB in a Replicaset

arial, roboto, etc. are good for websites
digital ibex
i'd just use localhost on ur db so it doesnt take space away from the mongodb thing
faint prism
cOmIc SaNs
digital ibex
instead its using ur vps' stuff

Good call

it was using around 1gb because of user generated images, but i reworked it to store only the generation instructions

roboto is sexy af
@lyric mountain YES

15mb storage??

btw, remember to specify more than one font

use roboto or arial then

Is it possible to get vote updates without webhooks?
to reward users on voting
lyric mountain
well, yeah, but it's not the font's fault
sunglasses is nice
@digital ibex that's roboto bold
sudden geyser
Heem yes, there's an endpoint to check if a user has voted.
digital ibex
oh
sudden geyser
but I recommend using webhooks if you want it instant
lyric mountain
all of those are roboto
lusty quest
use webhooks for this
earnest phoenix
@sudden geyser like when a user vote, he gets rewarded
not in realtime, you will have to check for votes periodically
faint prism
earnest phoenix
if I use webhook, where do I get the webhook pass?
lusty quest
with the webhooks you get a call that contains the userid of the user that voted
lyric mountain
if I use webhook, where do I get the webhook pass?
@earnest phoenix you set it to whatever u like
you could use the word "cat"
or dog

webhook pass is a random string you generate

that pass is returned to u in the http request

Oh snap
how do i make it so that way if it catches it, it sends that msg, but not the other one?
(my code btw)
faint prism
Replace what the catch does
karmic compass
wym
faint prism
Instead of just logging, call another function
lyric mountain
lemme see if I understood: you want the code to break if it catches an exception?
faint prism
that "sends that msg, but not the other one"
lyric mountain
use .then
karmic compass
can i have some context i woke up maybe 10 minutes ago
earnest phoenix
@karmic compass console.error() ????
faint prism
logging
digital ibex
how2avoiderrorswhencatchingthem101
opal plank
.catch(() =>{}) there we go no more errors
faint prism
try { Thing(); }
catch {Log("I don't want this. Take it back!"); throw;}
im tryna basically do this (just as cosmetic for context)
message.channel.send('woops')
} else {
(do this)
}```try
{
if (what = thehell)
{
throw SpecificException;
}
}
catch (SpecificException)
{
}
if i put in the catch "break" would it not send the next msg?
solemn latch
karmic compass
so .catch(err => { message.channel.send(':mailbox_closed: This user does not have their mailbox open!') console.error() return }) would techincally work then?
earnest phoenix
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`);
});```
here vote.user is id right? or the mention of the user?You have some small sizing issues sometimes
🤷
I dont think a single word can wrap
Nope
Guessing you have a left margin that's a minimum size
Below a certain screen size it can be removed and just center
Other than that looks great
Login system isn't complete, but im sure you know that
faint prism
The text element can resize to a minimum based on view port

@faint prism thx for recommending C#. its pretty easy to understand even if you used js before like the basic syntax is pretty similar.

im using css grid btw

@lusty quest
No problem, if you haven't seen the ML.NET yet. You'll need Visual Studio and it actually scaffolds out a ML project for you based on the training data ready to go

same way you would in the guild the command is ran in @still merlin

and yeah @valid frigate
it doesnt change with margin: 0 auto :/

digital ibex
this iw what i've got now: css display: grid; margin: 0 auto; grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr); grid-auto-rows: 100px; grid-gap: 10px; margin-left: 13%; margin-top: 4%;
oh ok

no buli
valid frigate
true
digital ibex
o ok
topaz fjord
the order you place them matters afaik
lyric mountain
it does
digital ibex
i was saying "yeah" it was being overridden by the bottom 2
topaz fjord
KuuHaKu is saying that order does matter
digital ibex
it was at the bottom tho
lyric mountain
wait, no
lyric mountain
try using flexbox
digital ibex
i fixed it by
lyric mountain
and i'd not recommend using absolute units for margins and stuff
digital ibex
removing the margin: 0 auto;
.b-container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr);
grid-auto-rows: 100px;
grid-gap: 10px;
margin-top: 30px;
}```and i'd not recommend using absolute units for margins and stuff
else you might get something like discord
topaz fjord
lmao
digital ibex
even if i just want a little bit?
lyric mountain
depends, do you want it to always be 10px away from the top, independent of screen size?
lyric mountain
if you want it to adapt to screen size, use flexible units
digital ibex
oh
delicate shore
😘
digital ibex
what??
digital ibex
oh
lyric mountain
so basically 10% of screen's height
remember that % is based on the current parent, while vh/vw is based on the actual screen
digital ibex
oh
lyric mountain
the other flexible units
vmax and vmin are exceptionally useful when you need to take the max/min value between screen's width and height

Some CSS help required... how can I change the src of an image through CSS? I found this:
https://css-tricks.com/replace-the-image-in-an-img-with-css/
But trying it didn't work on my bot page. I want to replace my bot's image on the bot page with one that's transparent in some places (so it works well with DBL's night theme)
I tried ```html
<style>
div.bot-img img {

box-sizing: border-box;
background: url(NEW_IMAGE_URL) no-repeat !important;

break;
does anyone know how I can stop this from happening
digital ibex
thats not a switch statement
oh i never saw the top bit
i believe thats happening because of the returns u've got
change the returns to break
i think
still merlin
What returns to break it- I'm a bit confused
solemn latch
is it not because breaking in the wrong spot?
solemn latch
outside any if statements
digital ibex
change return for break
still merlin
What return though?
still merlin
Sorry bit confused you want me to change my return too "break;"
solemn latch
i dont see why returns are the problem 🤔
solemn latch
return just means stop doing whatevers going on
digital ibex
and i've never had it when using return, so no idea
break stops the code from running whats underneath too
still merlin
Exactly what I want to do
digital ibex
no idea then, im just suggesting it because its worked for me without getting that error 
not using break
but in my switch statements
amber fractal
break, afaik, can only be used in loops and switch cases
still merlin
Wherever I put the break its still giving me ilegal break statement

what problems are you encountering
ruby elbow
does anyone know how I can run my bot 24/7 for free? Heroku recently changed their policy...
earnest phoenix
you cannot
earnest phoenix
from dapi:
ruby elbow
How can this be
Is there honestly no where that you can run a bot 24/7 for free
I mean that's insanity
sonic lodge
it costs money to maintain a vps
if everyone offered free hosting they would be immediately out of business
amber fractal
it's insanity that people dont want to pay for something for you?
do you let people remotely access your pc?
cinder patio
VPS is basically a computer that stays up 24/7... maintenance isn't easy and there's good reason it costs money
midnight blaze
@ruby elbow there is , you could use an online ide
I am not sure if that is against the tos
ruby elbow
Ok, I'll look into it
earnest phoenix
someone has to pay for the resources spent, it isn't insanity, it's called "you're a cheapskater"
ruby elbow
It is insane, because having a free plan is a good business model, and 2 major services have been doing it for years up until this past month. Right when I decide to make a bot
earnest phoenix
those services aren't major in the slightest LMFAO what are you talking about
earnest phoenix
major services are aws, google cloud and azure
midnight blaze
yeah, but they aint free
he is talking about free stuff
google cloud is not free
it is cheap
earnest phoenix
they have free trials
midnight blaze
tho
sudden geyser
They're partly free
sonic lodge
because people pay
earnest phoenix
still doesnt deminish the defenition of major
midnight blaze
xD
sonic lodge
in summary, it's not insane; it's necessary
midnight blaze
who cares about the definition @ruby elbow so which 2 services were you talking about?
ruby elbow
which 2 major services?
@midnight blaze heroku and glitch
btw Pang dm me about the IDE I have a question
amber fractal
inb4 it's repl and his token is leaked
ruby elbow
repl has a horrible reputation though
amber fractal
so did glitch and heroku for bots
sudden geyser
rep for what
ruby elbow
Glitch worked perfectly 24/7 for free for years
sudden geyser
no it didn't
ruby elbow
for me it did
midnight blaze
glitch is horrible anyway for serious bots, because it only will handle small projects, unless you pay for it
sudden geyser
depends. Is it your code?
ruby elbow
My friend had a bot in over 500 servers and it used glitch
it was online 24/7
for free
sudden geyser
or were you writing it at 3 am
celest schooner
my old code
sudden geyser
Probably because you didn't document it // use comments
celest schooner
¯_(ツ)_/¯
sudden geyser
Use comments to describe complicated stuff or what something may mean if it doesn't make sense at glance
celest schooner
it was online 24/7
@ruby elbow glitch breaks like every week until they banned pinging
midnight blaze
it does not matter in how many servers the bot is in it, but I am talking about the possibilites a bot can reach. If you use canvas/collections and other stuff, your bot is going to eat a lot of CPU
celest schooner
doesnt the more servers that the bots in run more ram
ruby elbow
@ruby elbow glitch breaks like every week until they banned pinging
@celest schooner It didn't for me
midnight blaze
yes, ofc
ruby elbow
Pang dm me
sonic lodge
i highly doubt that bot stayed up 24/7 "for years"
midnight blaze
but I am not talking about that, I am talking about bots that get complicated and need more cpu
ruby elbow
Of course there was downtime, but nothing significant
midnight blaze
w/o considering the numbers of guilds
ruby elbow
which IDEs were you talking about before
earnest phoenix
you were misusing their services anyways, heroku and glitch were never and aren't meant for discord bots but rather for small apps and websites. because of so many people misusing and abusing with pingers, they had to take action and start banning such behaviour
ruby elbow
Yeah, ik
celest schooner
yea but glitch embraced discord bots until they broke glitch
ruby elbow
How else do you expect broke small time devs to do anything
earnest phoenix
get a temporary side job
ruby elbow
I'm 15 years old mate
celest schooner
ok
earnest phoenix
old enough to be employed

If the user passes a mention or text that looks like a user ID, look in the cache to see if you can get it. If not, try parsing the mention to get the user ID (or use the user ID you already got), then send a request to Discord asking for the guild member by ID (there should be a method for it).
-
Look in the cache to see if you can find the user by name/tag/nickname/however you want it to. I wouldn't try fetching all members to search by name and instead rely on the cache.
Really, it's up to you to decide how to implement it. I'd avoid sending a request directly.
misty sigil
all id's are cached right?
sudden geyser
no

Are VPS and VPS Hosting the same?
solid falcon
So can I build a Web using ordinary VPS?
quartz kindle
technically, a vps is the thing, and vps hosting is the company who sells the thing
but its basically the same thing
you can do anything with a vps
its like having a second computer
except that its not physically near you, you have to access it remotely
solid falcon
So, how to configure the VPS IP to an URL like http://this.is.my.ip/
pure lion
Probably at namecheap
slender thistle
So regarding my issue with files not being updated, it's fixed... somehow

I re-cloned the whole thing and renamed stuff
earnest phoenix
how i can use the npm yt-search?
solid falcon
Point the domain at the vps ip
@solemn latch ok lemme try
You have to buy domains
@solemn latch I already have at namecheap
solemn latch
Just create an a record pointing to the ip.
If you want www to work aswell, you can add an a record for that aswell

why song.title say undefined?
let videos;
yts(args.join(' '), function (err, r) {
if (err) return;
videos = r.videos[0];
})
let song = {
title: videos.title,
url: videos.url,
time: videos.timestamp
}
fast zenith
@earnest phoenix are you running that async? it's trying to define song before the yts function could return

Does anyone knows how i remove EVERY reaction from a message

message.reactions.removeAll() for djs12 or message.clearReactions() for djs11

Im working on my website bot dashboard and im tryna implement markdown support to the changelog editor how would I do that?
earnest phoenix
use a library that does it for you or a whole load of regex and/or string manipulation
unborn steeple
What library is that?
solemn latch
youd have to find it, theres bound to be one
unborn steeple
I dont know what to search
amber fractal
"Markdown Parser HTML"
topaz cobalt
idk where to ask it but how do I do this reaction thing (its not a discord bot)
it says its a bot tho
earnest phoenix
It’s a webhook
unborn steeple
Webhook
topaz cobalt
with reaction?
unborn steeple
ye
topaz cobalt
how do I do that
earnest phoenix
I don’t think webhook can use reaction
opal plank
I used it before but i dont recall
You had to send raw payload with token
Iirc
They can
Its just undocumented bits of the api
I dont think that was all though

wanton nova
so it turns out digitalocean has a $50 credit for github students
so i applied
and today i got in
and then i realized that you need to create an account to apply the code, and you need a credit card for that
fuck
wanton nova
why even have a credit for students when ur gonna require that
sudden geyser
lots do that. take aws for example
wanton nova
75% of the github students users don't have a credit card or a paypal account with $5
i thought you just need an aws educate account

oh wait

i did not see "debit"
but yeah my parents dont trust me with a debit card
solemn latch
credit cards and debit cards are interchangeable
digital ibex
where do u live where they give u debit cards at 15 or 16?
solemn latch
uh
digital ibex
isnt that like
solemn latch
you can get them at 14
digital ibex
a bit too early
solemn latch
🤔
digital ibex
not where i live
solemn latch
gosh no, you can drive, you can handle spending your own money
solemn latch
15 to 16 is 14?
solemn latch
🤔
digital ibex
you can get them at 14
solemn latch
well, you can drive a tractor on the road at 13 technically, so yeah
i guess
14 aswell
digital ibex
tf...
digital ibex
wtf
when ur 16, u've got to be someone who has a full license when ur driving until ur 18
18+ u can drive
actually where i am
digital ibex
england isnt even that bad
solemn latch
germany has dumb crazy driving laws from what ive heard
solemn latch
4+ years of permit min, some like 30x my states driving permit time for adults

Does anyone have a good idea about how to sync a database between two python scripts in real time without using too much read writes to the disk. Because currently it's writing at least once a second and I think i can just commit before a read happens but I don't know how I would go about that
placid iron
Reduce disk usage
placid iron
One is for my webserver one is for the bot
tight heath
what does the web server display that needs all data from the bot?
wouldn't you just write any relevant data to a db or cache
and have an API to access that?
placid iron
Well I guess those are the things I'm asking for with this question
tight heath
I suggest you cache your data somewhere in memory
with a tool like redis
if it's high-write
otherwise just write it to db
and then have an API access wherever you store that data upon request from the frontend
placid iron
I have a small API script thing that has all the db stuff in it already so I'll look into the redis thing. It's a shame that the database tool can't have a memory database shared between processes otherwise it would be an easy thing to fix
sand scroll
where does it say the requirements for getting your bot approved
solemn latch
sand scroll
oh
solemn latch
sand scroll
well i look like a clown for not reading that channel dont i 🤡
solemn latch
also, generally speaking your bot should be up nearly 24/7
and #mod-logs helps for seeing the most common reasons bots get denied
sand scroll
ah i see
my bot is normally up but i have to take it down on my VPS when im editing the code
i get scared every time i do that because what if they're reviewing my bot
😔

Anyone know why this error shows up
DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions at RequestHandler.execute (/home/runner/FP-Bot/node_modules/discord.js/src/rest/RequestHandler.js:170:25) at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:97:5) { method: 'post', path: '/channels/689969083705196564/messages', code: 50013, httpStatus: 403 }
it has send messages perms on the channel
amber fractal
clearly not.
zenith terrace
it does
amber fractal
That will only show up if you dont have message send perms to the channel with the id 689969083705196564
zenith terrace
well it did
I double checked
both its role and itself had the send message perm on that channel
amber fractal
It also has read perms?
zenith terrace
mhm
amber fractal
idk any other reason that error would happen ¯_(ツ)_/¯
solemn latch
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
zenith terrace
Even tried to give itself a bot role and did the perms with the channel and same error ¯_(ツ)_/¯
earnest phoenix
hi how do u make my bot open 7/24 open
solemn latch
host it on a good vps
junior terrace
would I run in to problems using "s/" and "s " (s with a space after it) as prefixes for my bot commands?
crystal socket
what lang?
junior terrace
I mean usage problems, like maybe that conflicts with too many others
but I'm writing in Java
crystal socket
s/ and s isn't that much used
maybe just use 1
but i mean the most common prefixes are ! and / so you should be fine
junior terrace
I personally like the one with the /, but it's easier to say "s " on my phone
alright, thank you
crystal socket
yeah i think s/ is nicer. gl on bot approval!

Also, you just posted your token @crystal socket
You had better revoke that ASAP before someone else uses it

Could someone help me solve this? Not really good with ReferrenceErrors. 😄
solemn latch
in order to get a message, you need to have a message event.
you also need to login
sweet ruin
Hello. My problem is that When the bot does not have permissions to chat in a channel, he gives an error. It doesnt effect anything or shut the bot down. but it annoys the hell out of me.
How else am I supposed to catch the error and just make it go away?
solemn latch
you can check if the bot has permission to send messages in channels before sending them
sweet ruin
Well he does
just not that one channel
it isnt a global permission. it is one set by the channels
I tried the check permissions thing. it didnt help at al
solemn latch
if (channel.guild.me.permissionsIn(channel).has(['SEND_MESSAGES', 'VIEW_CHANNEL'])) return
this code returns if you dont have send or view channel perms
solemn latch
! will invert it
sonic lodge
you put it in the middle of an if else block
earnest phoenix
That's correct, just you don't need the else { after that
solemn latch
also its not something you can just directly import.
channel wont be defined, message.channel will.
earnest phoenix
And the last }
sweet ruin
Yes, the ! makes it so that if it doesnt have permissions. then it returns. else it runs command
right?
earnest phoenix
In theory yes, but you don't need that else {
sudden hedge
How do I create a Message Event for the trigger word?
earnest phoenix
And the last }
solemn latch
return means stop 🤔
sweet ruin
sweet ruin
Awesome
earnest phoenix
So that's the correct thing to do to avoid the error
sweet ruin
It works
but euhm
it also stops it from editing the database.
Fixed it
this is what I did
amber fractal
yes
Not with og, I think it uses the pages theme
Not positive on that
I know that you can though

client.on("message", message =>{

message.channel.send(attatchment)
how to make it delete ok wait
then send the img

Omg
In matter of 6 hours
My bot got added in almost 100 guilds
Wow
It's now in 199

@earnest phoenix ```js
await message.channel.send(attatchment);
bot.on("ready", () =>
bot.setActivity(`with ${bot.users.cache.size} members in ${bot.guilds.cache.size} servers`)
)```this is not working
idk why
its bot.user.setActivity
@delicate shore sorry for ping but:
bot.on("ready", () => {
bot.user.setActivity(`with ${bot.users.cache.size} members in ${bot.guilds.cache.size} servers`, { type:'PLAYING' })
})
hopefully this should work?
can anyone help me out real quick?
i want to prevent this from happening:
it should just say the second one, but it says both of them for some reason
my code btw
solemn latch
mailMan.send is probably async
karmic compass
i have client.on('message', function(message) {
how do i prevent it from saying the lower one + top one
i was told return would work
solemn latch
You'd have to await mailMan.send or .then()
Return does work, but its returning after the second send because promises.
karmic compass
would:
sdfjksldfkjslfjsldkjf
}))
sjfslkdjflksljlksfkl
``` work?or what do i put in the .then ?
@solemn latch (read two messages above pls im depsperatr)

.then(m => {

@karmic compass thanks but i did with another way and it worked

@solemn latch still does it, this is what i put. any final suggestions? (sorry for ping so much, you're epic)

use return

okay my current issue
is that
the HP inside the collector
is not being read as the same HP outside
which is why its being set to NaN
How can I work around this?

digital ibex
moyai
digital ibex
send ur code
karmic compass
solemn latch
Then runs after doing something
So you want your confirmation message in then
digital ibex
return message.channel.send
solemn latch
The problem is returning in a promise doesn't work until the promise is resolved @digital ibex
Which his confirmation message was being sent before the promise resolved
karmic compass
ay, it finally works, ty for the helpers
wait
that was amazing grammar

I tried setting up a slowmode command where i wanted to detect whether the arg given was an integer or not. Why doesn't this seem to be working? It's not detecting it as a non-integer when i type a word as the slow time
