How could I make a function that repeats itself 10 times after another function is made.
First run -> Run the Function -> wait for user input -> Second run
restive furnace
earnest phoenix
use a for loop over a while
austere robin
Hi
Im Wondering on how to make logging stuff
so mod commands get logged in (channel)
lusty quest
store the channelid somewhere (json file works too) then just make sure on bot Startup the channel is cached. Then just add in your Moderator Commands a function that sends a message into the stored channel
radiant kraken
Im Wondering on how to make logging stuff
@austere robin use events provided by your library
and send it to some channel you preferred (or store it on database)
radiant kraken
what language do you use?
austere robin
discord.js
lusty quest
its simple
lusty quest
did you have a json file where you store your configuration?
radiant kraken
like config.json
lusty quest
did you use a Database?
radiant kraken
oh.
lusty quest
wtf man. did you Hardcoded everything in to your bot (prefix as example)
austere robin
lol wdym? hardcode?
lusty quest
its nothing bad the json file makes it just easy to change the channel if it changes
radiant kraken
try learning editing json files in javascript, there are a lot of tutorials out there
lusty quest
you dont need it its just a qol feature
austere robin
wait, im using a json file.....
lusty quest
then just make a new key where you store your ChannelID
lusty quest
you have something like this : ```json
{
prefix: "!"
}
ehhh
misty sigil
{
// other stuff here
"channel":"channelid"
}```no....
radiant kraken
{
"serverid": "channelid"
}```did you got a config.json?
austere robin
no
lusty quest
or is it a package.json?
austere robin
i got a package.json
radiant kraken
where did you code your bot? @austere robin
lusty quest
ok dont touch this file
austere robin
@radiant kraken server.js
Dont mind the warns and servers and economy and ranks stuff
nothing in there -_-
misty sigil
you're using json as a db?
earnest phoenix
yikes
earnest phoenix
everything
misty sigil
yikeeess
radiant kraken
that's ok if your bot is small though
misty sigil
everything literally everything
austere robin
Which type is better for a db?
misty sigil
mongo or sql
radiant kraken
SQLite
livid saffron
Sql better
austere robin
k
earnest phoenix
see <#development message> on why json bad
austere robin
lol
radiant kraken
my friend had a bot with 500+ servers and still uses json as a db
misty sigil
yikes 
livid saffron
Mega yikes
austere robin
-_-
livid saffron
500+ server and json as db?
austere robin
Wait, so sql?
livid saffron
Yeah
austere robin
config.sql
livid saffron
First try learn xampp will be usefull
radiant kraken
try learn using mongoose/mongodb
austere robin
bruh, alright
ocean violet
MongoDB 100% better
radiant kraken
it's beginner friendly imo
earnest phoenix
for a config json is fine, for ephemeral storage with data that changes often look into using a proper database
ocean violet
Just make sure you secured the dB instance
livid saffron
545 means nothing since
earnest phoenix
lines do not matter in the slightest
mild steppe
If u use separate files for each guild will it be fine?
livid saffron
You can make it smaller
golden condor
you fucking donkey full of yanky danky doodle shite
livid saffron
And better
austere robin
lmfao @golden condor
ocean violet
Mongodb is user friendly especially with mongoose
earnest phoenix
i suggest you do research on what a database is, what sql is and what sql databases are
you need to grasp a better understanding of this
lmfao
austere robin
Lol, so Databases are stuff in which data is held
radiant kraken
database is where you store data so that if your bot goes offline all of the data doesn't disappear
earnest phoenix
i can easily explain everything to you right now but you won't understand it, i cant understand it for you ergo you have to do your own research on this
earnest phoenix
do the research, im on phone it hurts to type
golden condor
Should i...
austere robin
yes
earnest phoenix
but anyways, there are many layers to a database - from encryption to storage to what type it even is, sql is a querying language meant to work with sql based databases
they're built to sustain huge amounts of requests
golden condor
austere robin
@golden condor -_-
golden condor
¯_(ツ)_/¯
austere robin
Yes fine
golden condor
and once again...
austere robin
lol how long would that take
radiant kraken
try watching yt tutorials
earnest phoenix
no
pine aspen
How could I make a function that repeats itself 10 times after another function is made.
First run -> Run the Function -> wait for user input -> Second run
earnest phoenix
stop suggesting youtube tutorials because you damn well know they'll end up on a how to and end up copypasting
pine aspen
Callum I am.
earnest phoenix
@austere robin there is no set "how long will that take", once you get it you'll get it
austere robin
alr
pine aspen
It's just causing my bot to crash.
golden condor
for (let i = 0; 10 > i; i++){
//do something
}```@golden condor will that allow a function to be fully run
golden condor
yes
golden condor
That will run whatever code you put in there 10 times
austere robin
just a question, how long have u all been coding
pine aspen
then run it again
golden condor
if you use await then yes
pine aspen
ok
pine aspen
hmm?
misty sigil
just a question, how long have u all been coding
@austere robin 2 months now
golden condor
for ( 10 > qNumber; qNumber++){
//do something
}```time wise im a senior full stack dev by this point but still in high school lol
misty sigil
i mean longer but 2 month bot dev
pine aspen
ok.
austere robin
@earnest phoenix haha, what grade?
golden condor
I have been coding properly for 6 months
pine aspen
for ( 10 > qNumber; qNumber++) {
misty sigil
i've worked on some backend before
pine aspen
is an error
misty sigil
backend is fun
golden condor
yes
pine aspen
Yes
misty sigil
better than frontend
pine aspen
frontend = annoying
earnest phoenix
junior @austere robin
golden condor
Not if you use vue
misty sigil
my frontend looks shite
golden condor
Vue is good
austere robin
@earnest phoenix bruh, ur fking smart then
radiant kraken
i suck at UI design
austere robin
lol
misty sigil
lmao same @radiant kraken
golden condor
American grades are confusing
golden condor
I'm in Year 8
misty sigil
aus is australia right
austere robin
yeah
pine aspen
Callum, only?
austere robin
@golden condor ur in AUS??
misty sigil
i have an aunt in australia
austere robin
alr
golden condor
how old would I be lol
pine aspen
I'm in year 10 but leant coding myself because teachers are pointless.
misty sigil
lmao
pine aspen
I know more JavaScript then them.
austere robin
lol
pine aspen
I sometimes have to teach the class.
floral creek
I am in year 9 same
misty sigil
don't make a bot just for the badge
austere robin
@misty sigil Lmfao, i'll continue it
radiant kraken
you need to work hard to get the badge
misty sigil
austere robin

Hi
faint prism
@earnest phoenix https://www.nohello.com/
Do you have a question?
earnest phoenix
I'm from Brazil
@earnest phoenix https://www.nohello.com/
Do you have a question?
@faint prism I think not
remote silo
Not sure if this is the correct channel, but, where do you recommend me to host a music bot?
and what specs would you recommend? and internet speed maybe?
faint prism
Depends on your program's cpu load when in use really. Which is pretty specific to your bot
These are good. You can get one for $3/mo
https://galaxygate.net/hosting/vps/
https://www.digitalocean.com/
@remote silo
remote silo
Let's say a 1000 servers
earnest phoenix
How can I add a bot to my server?
remote silo
what specs would you recommend
faint prism
Invite one via a link @earnest phoenix
Depends on the calculations a command performs @remote silo
Bot's are typically pretty lightweight
Mine is running on a rasp pi 4's specs if that gives you an idea
earnest phoenix
Invite one via a link @earnest phoenix
@faint prism Thank you
faint prism
Really depends on the data you hold in memory, man. I can't do a profiling of your bot's overhead. Open TaskManager and see how expensive it is to run
earnest phoenix
Besides me, are there other Brazilians around here?
faint prism
I typically do a profiling in VS, but I wasn't sure how JS devs do it
finite bough
opal plank
i dont even use vs for memory profiling
its good for cpu profiling, but i use chrome for memory
pine aspen
https://sourceb.in/e743696a54 | https://gyazo.com/c250eba24ed0cf0d3b0c123fa23d0cbb
I'm supposed to have one message then a user responds. Then the next question comes.
opal plank
await message with a filter
pine aspen
Check the code.
opal plank
assuming its d.jsd
opal plank
it seems rather bad to be doing those regexes like you are tbh
misty sigil
do i put the entire emoji name (including ID) in reaction.emoji.name?
like <:name:id> or just ID?
opal plank
emoji name is just the name iirc
quartz kindle
its either name or id
opal plank
since i dont know eris, no, but regexing the mesages doesnt seem like a very good idea
pine aspen
Ok.
opal plank
specially cuz you arent lowercasing them
quartz kindle
i wouldnt use collectors for that
it makes everything needlesly complicated
are you using eris additions or whatever that package name is?
quartz kindle
do you have access to a helper function like awaitMessages?
quartz kindle
you could make your own too, its a wrapper around the collector
that returns a promise that resolves once its conditions are met
earnest phoenix
Slc maluco é bilíngue
quartz kindle
makes it much easier to use in this specific scenario
pine aspen
let responses = await message.channel.awaitMessages(m => m.content === "yes", { time: 10000, maxMatches: 1 });
oh
ok
I can do that
quartz kindle
👍

digital ibex
whats not working?
i've not been coding or anything dev related for the past few days soooo might not be much help
pure lion
It's the fucking poo mug peerjs server
pure lion
Of course you don't understand you easy bake oven
faint prism
Doesn't it have sample get/post requests?
earnest phoenix
Nope
misty sigil
<reaction>.emoji should return emoji stuff right
digital ibex
have u tried it?
misty sigil
yes
digital ibex
what is <reaction> ?
misty sigil
its the reaction object from messageReactionAdd
misty sigil
weird
digital ibex
?
misty sigil
its returning undefined for me
digital ibex
how are u doing it?
misty sigil
just reaction.emoji
digital ibex
send ur code the client.on('messageReactionAdd.... bit
pure lion
Would it return a reaction obj or a reaction obj and a message obj?
misty sigil
client.on('messageReactionAdd', (messageReaction, user) => {
console.log(messageReaction, user);
});```i've logged the reaction.emoji bit too
quartz kindle
so messageReaction logs, but has no .emoji?
digital ibex
console.log(messageReaction.emoji.name)
misty sigil
yea
mossy sundial
Can i ask what channel i should use if i want to report something
misty sigil
emoji is undefined
digital ibex
what discord.js version are you on?
misty sigil
latest
misty sigil
not you
digital ibex
mossy sundial
Ohm mb
quartz kindle
lmao
misty sigil
lol
digital ibex
are u using discord.js-light?
misty sigil
nope
digital ibex
cuz i believe it recently got updated
oh
what does messageReaction respond with?
like if u just log it
doesn't say it would be undefined in any case so
wanton anvil
how to create a channel in specific category using dpy
misty sigil
ye fixed it
digital ibex
ook
delicate shore
if(msg.auhtor == member) return msg.reply("Boomer, You wanna ban yourself?")```this does not work
person can still ban himself
nimble kiln
auhtor - typo
delicate shore
;-;
nimble kiln
idk if msg.author == member works tho, just try 😄
delicate shore
oo
quartz kindle
auhtor lmao
solemn latch
Is member a user object or a member?
User == Member would never be true right?
quartz kindle
depends on what kind of type coercion it does
quartz kindle
but the correct thing would be to compare ids directly
opal plank
^^
wanton anvil
who is member here
opal plank
is it?
wanton anvil
member means bot??
opal plank
bot means bot
golden condor
Author means User
opal plank
var means bad
golden condor
You have to check if there is the member variable first and if there is an object inside of it or if it's just undefined
digital ibex
he using javascript
opal plank
or use conditional chaining
golden condor
Also what is wrong with var
solemn latch
Global
golden condor
And... Is that an issue? What if you want global
opal plank
no reason to use var over let/const, just causes hard to catch bugs down the line
if you DO want, use it
solemn latch
Then var is usable for that
opal plank
but most of the times there isnt reason for it
solemn latch
If you can use let, use let
opal plank
it does have its uses for sure, but mostly can be replaced by let
golden condor
I just switch between the two all the time tbh
wanton anvil
what is difference between a category and categoryChannel
solemn latch
Thats generally a bad idea
lusty quest
yay. cant check something i have coded already in a other bot bcs my NAS is having a stroke again
solemn latch
Oh feels bad man
golden condor
Sometimes I just instinctively do it
lusty quest
i have a brainfart rn. want to remove only 1 reaction from a message not all reactions by this one user
wanton anvil
somebody answer my question
what is difference between a category and categoryChannel
@wanton anvil
solemn latch
Don't know if there is one
digital ibex
i think categoryChannel is the channels in the category, and category is a category object or something idk
digital ibex
i literally said "i think" and "idk" "or something"
wanton anvil
@digital ibex I appericiate it thanks anyways
golden condor
Category Channel is a category
wanton anvil
no difference?? @golden condor
surreal notch
hEY
wanton anvil
how can I build a Category class without bot
golden condor
A category is an instance of CategoryChannel basically
earnest phoenix
RangeError: Source is too large
at Uint16Array.set (<anonymous>)
at OpusScript.encode (/root/bot/node_modules/opusscript/index.js:67:16);
Keep getting this when the bot is hosted on a vps but never when i host it on my own pcs
wanton anvil
haha
solemn latch
Didn't we help you with this issue already
digital ibex
tim already said that the file, or something, ur trying to play is too large
something like that idk
earnest phoenix
but it only happens on my vps
solemn latch
digital ibex
maybe ur vps cant handle it
earnest phoenix
it has 80gb ssd space
solemn latch
Ssd space? Your source is from your ssd?
delicate shore
Hey
I wanna make my bot see
If the person he is trying to van
Ban
Has higher role then him
Like I do s!ban @mod
earnest phoenix
compare highest role
earnest phoenix
members have a role property if im not mistaking
delicate shore
O
solemn latch
Docs explain how quite well
delicate shore
:o
solemn latch
digital ibex
im having a small issueee if anyone knows
delicate shore
So
delicate shore
So
solemn latch
Is this form data?
digital ibex
yeah
delicate shore
if (msg.author.highestrole < member.user.highestrole) return
solemn latch
Then just a post request with all the form data
digital ibex
i've got that bit
delicate shore
if (msg.author.highestrole < member.user.highestrole) return
It this how u do it
digital ibex
but i dont know how to send "oof" to it
like, for each server, its going to be different
delicate shore
if (msg.author.highestrole < member.user.highestrole) return
@delicate shore
earnest phoenix
a user doesnt have a role
digital ibex
users dont have-
delicate shore
He
delicate shore
Ok
solemn latch
You know the docs literally explain this if you follow the role chain
solemn latch
Theres already a method that tells you the order of two roles.
Reading the docs is an amazing thing
pure lion
@digital ibex
digital ibex
hi
pure lion
Are you setting the value to oof?
digital ibex
i know dis bit
pure lion
Den just post the value
lusty quest
i have a blockade rn. I want to remove a reactions of a User if there is already one reaction from him on the message. any suggestions?
pure lion
Set the value to oof and post unless that's what you're doing already
solemn latch
Formdata
https://javascript.info/formdata
digital ibex
wdym set the value?
pure lion
<input value="oof">
digital ibex
lemme show u what im doing 1 sec
pure lion
Alright
digital ibex
<form action="/guilds/<%- id %>/moderation" method="post">
<div class="select">

<option>Select the muted role</option>
<% roles.forEach((role) => { %>

<% }) %>
</select>
</div>
<%- include('../imports/save') %>
</form>```<option value="titties"> will post titties when submitted
pure lion
Whatever you wanna post
That makes the most sense tho
Yeah that makes sense if you're setting a muted role
pure lion
Oh
solemn latch
Iirc, they need to be in a form
digital ibex
i've got this as my middleware app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true })); so no idea why its not working
pure lion
You gotta set the name
digital ibex
its in the form
pure lion
Weh
digital ibex
name?
pure lion
Yeah
pure lion
<option name="Donald trump">
Oh nice
I'm retar btw
Wait I gotta go to my site a sec

It was all woo
digital ibex

Hi
Some one can help with website
I need js script what redirect from domain.com to www.domain.com
Thx
faint prism
js has a redirect
faint prism
if !url.startswith("www.") redirect
But why do that at all?
I don't think you need www. for a url lol
digital ibex
you need to contact ur website hosting serverice thingy for www as a subdomain for website.com to redirect u to www.domain.com
www is ugly tho, i dont have it as any of my subdomains because yuck
faint prism
It's actually not necessary to use WWW in URLs. It exists for just one purpose – to identify the address as a website.
So unless you're using the url for another service than website hosting
earnest phoenix
you need to contact ur website hosting serverice thingy for www as a subdomain for website.com to redirect u to www.domain.com
@digital ibex I Aleready have www subdomain
digital ibex
then make it when u go to website.com to www.website.com
what domain provider thingy u using?
delicate zephyr
@grave jay do you use cloudflare?
opaque eagle
I'm having trouble configuring postgres on my VPS
I installed it, added a user, added a database with that new user as the owner, edited pg_hba.conf, and allowed ufw firewall on port 5432
but when I try to connect, my connection times out
delicate zephyr
@opaque eagle make sure the service your running it listening on 0.0.0.0 and not 127.0.0.1
opaque eagle
last line
wanton anvil
how can I send timed messages using dpy
faint prism
127.0. 0.1 is the loopback address (also known as localhost). 0.0. 0.0 is a non-routable meta-address used to designate an invalid, unknown, or non-applicable target (a 'no particular address' place holder)
delicate zephyr
@opaque eagle change this line iirc https://img.ichigo.uk/mSbEUdsc4GTQ.png
to 0.0.0.0
if that doesnt help idk
opaque eagle
ohh
faint prism
Careful changing localhost to non-specific ip addrs, could break a connection between services
earnest phoenix
Okay but how made redirect from example.com to www.example.com?
misty sigil
what is /64 ipv6 network
faint prism
A range basically
wanton anvil
how can I send timed messages using dpy
@wanton anvil help please
faint prism
IP addresses are assigned to networks in different sized 'blocks'. The size of the 'block' assigned is written after an oblique (/), which shows the number of IP addresses contained in that block. For example, if an Internet Service Provider (ISP) is assigned a “/16”, they receive around 64,000 IPv4 addresses
@misty sigil
digital ibex
show the panel where u add the subdomain @earnest phoenix
digital ibex
u can send it here
opaque eagle
still nothing
misty sigil
woah so 64000 different ipv6 ip addresses for /16 network
lusty quest
funny enought if it wont work the normal way try it with Docker. had some issues getting MongoDB working in a Replicaset with the Normal Installation. with docker it took 5 minutes
opaque eagle
yeah I'm used to using docker
but I don't want to spin up entirely new instances of postgres for each new project
@lusty quest
lusty quest
you dont need to?
opaque eagle
wdym
lusty quest
you can just run a Container with Postgres and connect with mutiple projects to it
opaque eagle
if i include a postgres db in my docker-compose file then it can only be used by other containers in that project right
worldly nebula
Should I actually make this to a good command?
Current things I may add:
Embed Messages.
Templates for diffirent desings.
lusty quest
lol thats overkill
lusty quest
yea
opaque eagle
ok ok lemme try that
opaque eagle
yeah
tepid gate
If I'm posting data for stats should I put that in the ready?
opaque eagle
wouldn't it bad for my VPS's memory tho
lusty quest
why?
opaque eagle
it would be more efficient to just run postgres natively
because it's inside a docker container
solid falcon
Is discord bot delaying send message every sending 5 message?
lusty quest
i was running MongoDB on 3 VPS (each 1GB Ram) and each used maybe 12% Ram (together with OS, Docker)
Docker has a small overhead
lusty quest
Digital Ocean doesnt offer VPS with lower Specs
but i switched to a paid Plan from MongoDB Atlas. Gives me some nice stuff and i need to care less about it
digital ibex
eh
solid falcon
Try Azure, Vultr, Linode, Conoha, etc..
digital ibex
i see no reason to use atlas unless you're working with other developers on ur project
lusty quest
what i have RN is pretty decent
get a Replicaset at Atlas for a decent price
since i dont need to pay for 3 Individual Instances im fine with it

digital ibex
show ur code
fickle arch
digital ibex
where is it erroring?
fickle arch
it's said Discord not defined
faint prism
why the space
amber fractal

Just wanted to make sure since the syntax highlight color is diff
fickle arch
faint prism
Oh guess not
earnest phoenix
where can I promote my bot
digital ibex
here but not here
digital ibex
whats the full error?
earnest phoenix
which channel
fickle arch
discord not define.
digital ibex
not a channel but https://top.gg/bot/new
faint prism
No channel for that, bud
Look up another server for adverting
Ask in #support for any more questions not development related please
@earnest phoenix

tight plinth
do you know what youre even doing
earnest phoenix
tight plinth
@earnest phoenix not here
did you write that code
coz its a very bad code
and it doesnt work
lusty quest
i would make it completely different
tight plinth
you cant fix it if you dont know what each line of your code exactly does
radiant kraken
Bruh
faint prism
Where is this "code" being referenced
radiant kraken
It's deleted
faint prism
Can't help someone who does that
lusty quest
there are mutiple mistakes
radiant kraken
why is the captcha the same text and not random?
lusty quest
- Never Nest Events into each other
faint prism
- The entire architecture of that costs a lot of technical debt
lusty quest
and why always the same text? then the verification is defeated by the first smart person who knows how to make selfbots
cobalt spruce
lusty quest
?
radiant kraken
- Pretty much 90% of the syntax is embeds
faint prism
I am, fairly new tbh lol
lusty quest
just use a Random String Generator and send it to the user. its already better than sending the same image to everyone
radiant kraken

if you need a idea for a Random string i can recommend looking into the crypto package (makes it easy to get a random string) otherwise you can easy make one in plain js
faint prism
My approach for that was get some random int within ascii's letter range, cast to a char, then add append to a string
string randomStr = string.Empty;
Random rng = new Random();
for (int i = 0; i <= 15; i++)
{
randomStr += (char)rng.Next(65, 123);
}`````zg^McmLGPD_eRGx`
Quick and dirty example
slender thistle
huh
radiant kraken
tbh in js you don't need that at the declaration, you can use let/const
slender thistle
does (char)rng.Next return a character under returned code?
golden condor
I can give a simple example for it

i find a command handler, this may work https://medium.com/discordbot/create-a-basic-command-handler-for-your-discord-js-bot-4e24e17cb594 ?
golden condor
But I cba to type it on mobile
faint prism
Every char has an int for it's ascii (or whatever encoding) position. This allows the cast
slender thistle
yeah, that just didn't look very intuitive to me as a Python dev
faint prism
What, what I sent?
slender thistle
yeah, the (char)rng.Next(65, 123); part

Filthy Python dev @slender thistle
slender thistle
In Python you'd do chr(random.randint(65, 124)) 
faint prism
In Python you'd do
chr(random.randint(65, 124)):catshrug:
@slender thistleIn C# that's equivalent to this, assuming char cast works the same
slender thistle
Actually, I don't know why I expected that to return a character when the returned random integer is at least two numbers long
faint prism
What do you mean? I am having a bit of trouble reading that message, lol.
It should return a char as long as the int is within the encoding's char value range
assuming char cast works the same
slender thistle
(char)65 wouldn't make sense to return 65 as char type
and that's essentially what I expected it to do, for some reason
faint prism
65 as a char is 'A' in ASCII
slender thistle
yeah, makes sense
faint prism
I think you can also do byte conversions in a similar way. Characters have hex values as well
0x41 for example is 'A'
slender thistle
So like (char)0x41?
sonic lodge
while we're talking about this, could i do (int)('A') and get 65
sonic lodge
👌
slender thistle
Huh, that's neat
faint prism
Console.WriteLine('\x41');
returns A
Since the hexcode/byte representation is essentially the char itself
golden condor
What Lang is that
golden condor
Ah ok
quartz kindle
you can do that in js as well

I'm looking to get into better web development, I have started learning vue, is that a good choice or is there better things?
faint prism
faint prism
-ask2ask
Vue.JS is known for implementing the best of aspects of Angular and React
@golden condor
barren sand
Well it'd just be
\x41I think .Let me check
@faint prism how to write that
digital ibex
vue is simple, you dont really learn much if u understand the basics of es6 and just js in general, its really lightweight too with its cool features
barren sand
Black background
golden condor
I like vue
faint prism
` ` The grave character @barren sand
barren sand
Ok
digital ibex
its source code is in ts so its better for ts if ur using it
golden condor
ok
digital ibex
wdym?
faint prism
Vue.js lets you add it on top of an existing html page by just referencing it's script. Pretty neat imo
golden condor
It's components are a bit confusing and it's tutorial on their docs is weird because it's a game
Vue.js lets you add it on top of an existing html page by just referencing it's script. Pretty neat imo
@faint prism yeah I like it because of that, I made a basic cookie clicker with it
digital ibex
traversy media uploaded a crash course on it around a year ago, he explains vue in detail
golden condor
I mean react
Vue is quite simple and the docs are well presented too
So that's why I like it
But if any of you could link a good website and/or video for react I'd appreciate it :+1:
faint prism
I'm not a webdev sorry. More of a backend C# dev
golden condor
Alr
faint prism
vue.js has video tutorials on their website
golden condor
Moving from ejs to Vue has been easy tbh, can you use it with express's render function if you set the view engine?
digital ibex
er
possibly if u use the cdn (not sure)
but u cant if u install the cli then defo no

@digital ibex I think there is a Vue npm pkg
Also can you link the Vue crash course?

Its had some issues with some shards
For like the past few weeks
Invite manager has a support server, should ask there for more info
merry ivy
Where please ?
solemn latch
🤷 this isnt the invite manager server, so idk what their link is.
You can find it on their top.gg page
slender thistle
Restart your client

ah

Oh god I introduced a breaking bug to prod
Good thing it was just dotnet publish not overwriting the config file. EZ fix
<None Update="config.json">
<CopyToOutputDirectory>Always</CopyToOutputDirectory>
<CopyToPublishDirectory>Always</CopyToPublishDirectory>
<ExcludeFromSingleFile>true</ExcludeFromSingleFile>
</None>```
Which is weird because it always should..real programmers test in prod
opaque eagle
lol
jolly wave
why when i try to make commands in the commands folder they never work
faint prism
It worked in Test. I just forgot to update the config.json in prod
lusty quest
@jolly wave did you got a command handler?
solemn latch
Command handlers also expect a format. If you dont follow that format it won't load the command properly
faint prism
I really need to finish my bot's devops pipeline...
Doing a manual update is tedious:
alias update-discordbot='sudo echo Starting as admin && cd /home/ubuntu/{BOTNAME}; git pull && sudo systemctl stop discordbot.service && dotnet publish -c Release -o release; sudo systemctl restart discordbot.service'
opaque eagle
are you handling them properly
jolly wave
let me rewatch teh guide xd
opaque eagle
like storing them in a collection/map and using them in the message create event
watch?
discordjs.guide isn't a video guide
oh you said discord.js guide
others suck
thick gull
you don’t watch website pages?
jolly wave
e ok
solemn latch
I like watching Google.com
opaque eagle
I like watching discord
solemn latch
You can watch discord
solemn latch
Two people arguing is a great thing to watch

I still haven't fixed my postgres error
but I've gotten better
I went from a "connection timeout" to a "connection refused"
can i post my wall of screenshots
jolly wave
ping.js don't work when i try it
solemn latch
Id go back and make sure you did everything outlined in the guide properly
lusty quest
did you run it now in docker?
opaque eagle
No
lusty quest
refused is good, this means something wont let it connect
lusty quest
firewall is allowed? or is it local?
opaque eagle
- my firewall looks good
lusty quest
did you allow connections?
opaque eagle
pg_hba.conf?
lusty quest
yes
jolly wave
time to retry ping.js
jolly wave
i can't save index.js anymore why
lusty quest
i think you have there an error.
opaque eagle
where
lusty quest
not sure if you are allowed to have localhost and any host at the same time
solemn latch
You can't save a file?
jolly wave
yes
solemn latch
🤔
jolly wave
idk
lusty quest
where did you want to save your file? if it is a NAS or external Drive is it still reachable?
