Rate limit

[earnest phoenix]

you got ratelimited

[faint prism]

The user has sent too many requests in a given amount of time ("rate limiting"). The response representations SHOULD include details explaining the condition, and MAY include a Retry-After header indicating how long to wait before making a new request.

[drifting wedge]

its giving me errors on total guilds

im on py

[earnest phoenix]

if you're scraping youtube you need to shuffle through proxies, youtube became much much more stricter with scraping

[drifting wedge]

serverCount = client.guilds

[earnest phoenix]

how are you still stuck on this

read the docs

[faint prism]

len

serverCount = client.guilds
@drifting wedge You're missing len()

And I don't mean just append it

[earnest phoenix]

How could I resolve this error? Changing the vps to change the ip?

@earnest phoenix

[faint prism]

How could I resolve this error? Changing the vps to change the ip?
@earnest phoenix Stop abusing an API lol

[earnest phoenix]

it's a youtube ratelimit

[quartz kindle]

literally every single music bot out there abuses the youtube api lol

[earnest phoenix]

@faint prism Music Bot

[restive pebble]

rip youtube

[faint prism]

Does yt rate limit selenium? Ik that's a slower solution

[earnest phoenix]

I never had this problem with blocks to something like

[restive pebble]

429 epic

[quartz kindle]

rate limits are applied according to some internal algorithm they have

the block is usually per ip

[drifting wedge]

how would i get the online offline members in a server?

i checked the docs

[restive pebble]

some can bypass it

[drifting wedge]

i only could find bot wide

[quartz kindle]

guilds have a .memberCount property

[earnest phoenix]

I'll do a little thing here so to remove the block from this IP

[quartz kindle]

which is a number of total members

[earnest phoenix]

rythm was broken for a good week because of this change, a work around is just to shuffle through a list of proxies whenever you get ratelimited

[drifting wedge]

which is a number of total members
@quartz kindle but is there online offline?

[quartz kindle]

no, only total

[restive pebble]

no

[drifting wedge]

but there is bot wide?

[restive pebble]

cache thing has that

[quartz kindle]

if you want to separate online and offline, you have to fetch all members

[faint prism]

if you want to separate online and offline, you have to fetch all members
@quartz kindle Made a logic error once regarding that behavior lol. That was a painful mistake.

[drifting wedge]

and im adding a stats command

[faint prism]

In my lib it returns null for offline, which I thought meant they didn't exist

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[drifting wedge]

and how do i check the users in guilds with the bot and number of guilds with the bot?

i tried but it gives me server stats

not bot stats

[faint prism]

"Oh yeah, I'll just delete them from the DB, since I must no longer share a common guild"

rip

[solemn latch]

len(client.guilds)
Or something right?

[faint prism]

lgtm

[drifting wedge]

bo

[solemn latch]

The user one is a bit different iirc

[drifting wedge]

no

that gives server stats

[faint prism]

equivalent to client.guilds.Count or client.guilds.Length in other language

[drifting wedge]

itll just say 1

[quartz kindle]

once again, if you want a number of ALL users, including duplicates that share guilds and offlines and bots and everything, use guild.memberCount, its cheap and easy to use
if you want to separate offlines, onlines, bots, remove duplicates and all that stuff, the only way to do that is to fetch all members, which uses a lot of memory so its not recommended

so which one is it?

[solemn latch]

Client isn't guild specific btw

[faint prism]

It's the bot's session

[solemn latch]

Unless your sharding every single guild?

[quartz kindle]

shard every single guild

yes pls

[drifting wedge]

client.guilds.Count this tells me guild count bot is in?

[faint prism]

client.guilds.Count this tells me guild count bot is in?
@drifting wedge That's not python dude. len(array) is the length in python

[solemn latch]

len(list)
Is the python equivalent

[drifting wedge]

ok

[quartz kindle]

and client.guilds is a list

[drifting wedge]

oh ok

[drifting wedge]

and for users? is it len(client.users)

[quartz kindle]

yes

but

refer to the message i posted before about the differences between ALL users and separated users

if you dont fetch all members, client.users will only contain online users, not offlines

[drifting wedge]

well rn its sending for the server

not for bot total

oooh

wait

it might

[quartz kindle]

its not per server

[drifting wedge]

1 sed

[quartz kindle]

client.users is for all servers

but only online users

not offlines

[restive pebble]

sed

[viscid fulcrum]

I think you can do

guilds = client.guilds
print("Servers including offline members")
for guild in guilds
  if not guild.large:
    members = guild.members
    for member in members:
      print(member)

but not sure about that tho

@drifting wedge

[quartz kindle]

guild.members doesnt include offlines either

unless you explicitly fetch all members first

[drifting wedge]

well it works

[viscid fulcrum]

oh i thought if it wasnt a large guild it did

[drifting wedge]

it gets all members from 1 server

but its not "bot wide"

[quartz kindle]

show code

[drifting wedge]

1 sec

async def stats(ctx):
    serverCount = len(list)
    memberCount = len(users)

    embed = discord.Embed(
        colour = discord.Colour.blue()
    )

    embed.set_author(name='Arch | Stats', icon_url=f"{client.user.avatar_url}")
    embed.add_field(name="Total Servers:", value=serverCount)
    embed.add_field(name="Total Users:", value=memberCount)```

[solemn latch]

Can't you just map the client.guilds member_count
And then just add them

[drifting wedge]

it works on the server list

but not the membercount

[quartz kindle]

can you use undefined variables like that in py? or is list and users defined elsewhere?

[drifting wedge]

i think not used elsewhere

so should be fome

[quartz kindle]

should be len(client.guilds) and len(client.users)

[drifting wedge]

fine

serverCount = len(client.list)
memberCount = len(client.users)

[earnest phoenix]

Yo sup guys listen i need good bots (moderation,levels,stuff like that) for my server

[drifting wedge]

dm me

@earnest phoenix

[quartz kindle]

what is client.list supposed to be?

its client.guilds

[drifting wedge]

i just want a nmber

ok ill try

but the server count works

so i dont see why change it

[quartz kindle]

because its wrong? lmao

if it works for some reason its just coincidence

[drifting wedge]

ok

    memberCount = len(client.users)```

[solemn latch]

count = map(lambda c: c.member_count, client.guilds)
Total = sum(count, 0)

[drifting wedge]

so this is gooood?

[solemn latch]

🤔

[quartz kindle]

yes, but once again, it will not show offline users from large guilds

only for small guilds

but go ahead and try it

[drifting wedge]

i mean how would i do it then?

if it has large guilds?

[quartz kindle]

what Woo said, you have to get the member_count property from each guild and sum all of them

[drifting wedge]

count = map(lambda c: c.member_count, client.guilds)
Total = sum(count, 0)

so add this?

[solemn latch]

It might not be copy paste. I tried my best, but not a python dev

[quartz kindle]

im not a python dev either, i dont know the exact syntax, but thats the idea you have to follow

for each guild, get the member_count number and add it to a total

[solemn latch]

Iirc theres a more efficent way to do it aswell I just don't remember it

[pine aspen]

Hey. How could I remove smthg from an array mongoose.

I've been using the pull method.

const g = require('../../models/guilds'); 
g.updateOne({ id: message.channel.guild.id }, { $pull: { autoRole: '739887331796058162' } });

MongoError: '$set' is empty. You must specify a field like so: {$set: {<field>: ...}}

This is my current code.

I don't understand this issue though.

[earnest phoenix]

I don't think updateOne is the correct method to remove something from the collection?

[pale vessel]

it's not removing

what does the model look like?

[slate oyster]

I got an error lol

[quartz kindle]

out of memory lol

[sinful belfry]

hey, anyone know what might be causing a 'SHARDING_READY_TIMEOUT' issue whenever i start up my bot? it still starts up eventually, but if i try spawning multiple shards then only the first shard ever seems to spawn (idk if this is a related issue), anyone have any suggestions? (using discord.js-light)

[pale vessel]

that man above you can definitely help you

[quartz kindle]

@_@

the sharding manager is weird af

[faint prism]

You're the best in the business Tim

[quartz kindle]

i dont even use it

[sinful belfry]

oh what do u use lol

[quartz kindle]

internal sharding lol

who needs multi-core when your bot uses 1% cpu on idle

[sinful belfry]

true

[quartz kindle]

anyway did that issue start recently? out of nowhere or after some update?

[sinful belfry]

it's been there for quite some time, it isn't new

it's just i started trying to add more shards but then the other shards didn't seem to spawn

[faint prism]

So you manage your own sharded client threads from the host process?

[sinful belfry]

not sure if the issue is related

[quartz kindle]

i dont use threads

its all in the same process & thread

well i'll test if djslight has any issues with the sharding manager

[faint prism]

I need to read up on shards then

[sinful belfry]

ok thanks

[solemn latch]

I have a huge list of things I need to read up on

[faint prism]

We all do lol. I think it's a dev thing

[dusty shale]

So I have an HTML website and a js bot.
I want to show the number of servers and the number of users that use my bot on my website.
Can anyone help me out in doing so?

(Basic dev, just started a while back)

[earnest phoenix]

you cannot do that without a backend server serving the data

[dusty shale]

Can you show me the way?

LIke any resources i can look at

to do so

well well he left the server

[wary flame]

You could use an expressjs server with a route that responds with your server count, in your html webpage make a request to your server and show the results in your webpage

@dusty shale

[earnest phoenix]

^

[dusty shale]

Do you know any vid or site I can visit to learn more?

[earnest phoenix]

you need a way to communicate with your bot, either with REST requests or a WS server (which is just overcomplicated if you don't want realtime updates)

not really

this is in a scope of full stack development

this might help https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap

[solemn latch]

Could be a terrible tutorial.
But it covers some of the concepts
https://www.taniarascia.com/how-to-connect-to-an-api-with-javascript/

Really haven't read it

[dusty shale]

Thank you guys

I'll have a look

[wary flame]

I would use a REST request, it is easier you could even set a timeout on your webpage to send a request every once in a while to keep updating the server count

[dusty shale]

hmm

[solemn latch]

Iirc eli does something like that
https://elibot.gg/

[ionic dawn]

Well @dusty shale in a simple and primitive way you could manipulate a file everytime your bot is added or removed and track that file in your html

[solemn latch]

^ template engines

[dusty shale]

Would it work with a static website?

[ionic dawn]

Yes

You just call the json when someones join and print the value

I mean, when someones join the web

[earnest phoenix]

not suggested

[solemn latch]

Honestly, theres more than just what we have listed here that you could do.

[wary flame]

Expressjs

Install: https://expressjs.com/en/starter/installing.html
Basic server: https://expressjs.com/en/starter/hello-world.html
Basic routing: https://expressjs.com/en/starter/basic-routing.html

You could set up a request that responds with your server count

[solemn latch]

Such a wide range of options

[dusty shale]

yup

but no idea lol

[ionic dawn]

@earnest phoenix i know, i said is primitive

[dusty shale]

I am ultra primitive

[ionic dawn]

But it works

[earnest phoenix]

you shouldn't rely on serving a file due to browser level caching, router side caching and ISP side caching but it could work

granted you can always append a cache breaker

[ionic dawn]

You can add the 3 events on the bot start, to get the actual guilds and write them, and then rewrite when some guild os added or removed

How bad is my english

[solemn latch]

7/10 didn't notice

[dusty shale]

all my files are hosted on github

[ionic dawn]

So?

[dusty shale]

Want to make sure it works

my discord is lagging

[solemn latch]

Even your bot?

[dusty shale]

no

not the bot

[ionic dawn]

Lol

[dusty shale]

website files

[earnest phoenix]

periodically hosting your bot with github actions :wesmart:

[ionic dawn]

[dusty shale]

so the express js will be in the bot files right?

[ionic dawn]

I make a dummy command yesterday, can I show?

[dusty shale]

sure

its still lagging

[solemn latch]

Yeah discord doing discord things

[dusty shale]

so the express js will be in the bot files right?
@dusty shale anyone ^

[earnest phoenix]

isn't that just using that api for it

[dusty shale]

cool

minecraft

[ionic dawn]

Cant

The thing is writen on php

[pale vessel]

stinky

[wary flame]

@dusty shale anyone ^
@dusty shale yes

[ionic dawn]

I find 1 closed api and 2 deprecated npm rp

[dusty shale]

how will i call for it in website

[earnest phoenix]

yuh but there's apis that will literally just serve the image based on the url

[wary flame]

Make a request to your server

[dusty shale]

this all will sound very stupid but i cant help it cuz I am a newbie sry

[earnest phoenix]

https://minecraftskinstealer.com/achievement/20/Achievement+Get%21/Text+goes+here
https://minecraftskinstealer.com/achievement/20/Achievement+Get!/Text+goes+here

[wary flame]

Using javascript

[solemn latch]

https://minecraftskinstealer.com/achievement/20/Achievement+Get!/hi+mom

[dusty shale]

@wary flame could you give me an example of usage

[solemn latch]

The tutorial I linked earlier covers it iirc

[dusty shale]

ok sir

[ionic dawn]

Thats the thing that I use to generate them

But you cant use the link to give the image

[solemn latch]

Couldn't you just put it in an embed and call it a day?

Let the user load it

[ionic dawn]

It provides a php thingy that cant be send as a file, but you can download the image using fs(what i did)

[earnest phoenix]

if you send the raw url the discord client will hide it

and leave the image

[quartz kindle]

@sinful belfry i tested with a barebones setup and it seems to work

[pine aspen]

@pale vessel it’s autoRole: []

[pale vessel]

what could be inside?

[ionic dawn]

I dont want it to be a link

Mod bots could get rip of them

[wary flame]

If you have jquery:

$.ajax({
method: 'request method',
host: 'your server ip',
url: 'request url'
}).done(count => console.log(count))

@dusty shale

[ionic dawn]

Perhaps idk

[sinful belfry]

@quartz kindle it could be the fetchAllMembers option, because that takes a couple minutes to complete

[solemn latch]

🤔 most mod bots ignore other bots dont they?

[dusty shale]

i do

[quartz kindle]

let me test with it

[ionic dawn]

Im sure they do

[solemn latch]

Also, if its in embed, mod bots probably won't check anyway

[ionic dawn]

But I wanted to send a file

[pine aspen]

@pale vessel I’m tagging so the message doesn’t get lost. It’s just strings inside []

[ionic dawn]

[pine aspen]

I’m looking to delete or pop the string out of the array

The one they specify

[dusty shale]

If you have jquery:

$.ajax({
method: 'request method',
host: 'your server ip',
url: 'request url'
}).done(count => console.log(count))

@dusty shale
@wary flame so i just have to replace them?

[earnest phoenix]

jquery 🤢

i thought we left that behind

[wary flame]

What else would you use?

This isnt nodejs

[solemn latch]

Pretty sure you can just use request anyway.

[earnest phoenix]

node-fetch

[wary flame]

This isnt nodejs
You cant install modules in browser

[earnest phoenix]

webpack

[quartz kindle]

@sinful belfry still works for me, but try increasing the spawn timeout: manager.spawn("auto",6000,60000) for example

[wary flame]

Okay you can using webpack

I am too lazy though

[sinful belfry]

ah ok lemme give that a go real quick

[earnest phoenix]

it's common practice to use node-fetch with SPA apps like react

[wary flame]

SPA?

[earnest phoenix]

single page application

[wary flame]

Ah

[earnest phoenix]

facebook is SPA

specifically react

they made react

[wary flame]

I knew that

[quartz kindle]

facebook is shit

[pine aspen]

When’s a good number of server to share?

[earnest phoenix]

when?

[solemn latch]

7

[earnest phoenix]

idk around dinner time

[pine aspen]

What*

[earnest phoenix]

your accurate amount

lol

[wary flame]

But since I am not much of a front end dev I havent really looked into react and other web frameworks

[earnest phoenix]

you really should

[wary flame]

Discord is laggin jeez

[earnest phoenix]

it's amazing to work with

i would never ever go back to regular html + css + vanilla js

[wary flame]

I have no need to though, I barely develop front end

Actually

I am working on a front end project atm, is it worth it to switch to react?

[earnest phoenix]

deep into the project? probably not, if you're still starting out i would suggest so

[wary flame]

If I would switch to react would I be able to make use of react native?

[earnest phoenix]

nope

react and react native are two different things

[wary flame]

Oh?

[earnest phoenix]

react is javascript based, it depends on HTML rendering

meant for the web

[drifting wedge]

im getting this error when i put it on heroku discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'list'

ill send code 1 sec

[earnest phoenix]

react native is meant for android and ios apps but there has been some talk about react native working on windows and mac

[cinder patio]

You can use the fetch function in JS

to make HTTP requests without jquery

[drifting wedge]

how do i get membercount for ONE server

cuz im getting membercounbt for all servers

guild.membercount?

memberCount = len(client.users)

[cinder patio]

you can get the server with the <Client>.guilds.get function

[drifting wedge]

this should be the command

[cinder patio]

If you have only an id

[drifting wedge]

but its not working

just for one server

not all servers bot is in

and for server list?

serverCount = len(client.list)

[slender thistle]

client.guilds, not client.list

[drifting wedge]

sure

im bad

but i can help a bit

[slender thistle]

Or just ask here

[earnest phoenix]

Yo guys

Im making this bot

with a math command

can someone gimme the script?

codE*

[wary flame]

We dont spoonfeed

[floral mulch]

Hey

How to use command?

[slender thistle]

That traceback doesn't look pythonic

[wary flame]

How to use command?
@floral mulch what command

[earnest phoenix]

@fleet hornet npm i http-proxy-middleware

[floral mulch]

Like I have to use kiss command

[earnest phoenix]

add --save to end

eval(MATHEXPRESSION) @dire mica this works

[floral mulch]

Jo how can I give command to bot

[earnest phoenix]

@floral mulch we won't make you commands

[floral mulch]

Like

[sudden geyser]

you give command to bot by making command

[solemn latch]

"Pythonic"

🤔

Pythiccc

[sudden geyser]

Might get bitten

[floral mulch]

Dyno reply when I add ? Before next command

So any word or symbol?

[wary flame]

Its looks more "node-ish" to me

Thats called a prefix?

[floral mulch]

Yes

Exactly

[wary flame]

[earnest phoenix]

Is it possible to await while doing an iteration? For example, iterating through an array that it's elements are IDs, fetch them one by one

[floral mulch]

@wary flame so me

Angry command

Use it upon me

@wary flame

[wary flame]

Improve your english please

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix I think so

How so

[slender thistle]

eval(MATHEXPRESSION) 733652228434296872 this works
@earnest phoenix Generally, evaling math expressions is just not a good idea

[earnest phoenix]

ik

he wanted to be spoonfed he got it

[slender thistle]

There's math expression packages for that

[earnest phoenix]

ik

[floral mulch]

Improve your english please
@wary flame can you plz tell me how to give command to your bot? Show me one example

[wary flame]

We dont spoonfeed

[slender thistle]

They're asking how to

where exactly did they ask to be spoonfed

[wary flame]

They asked to make commands kinda

[floral mulch]

They're asking how to
@slender thistle exactly

They asked to make commands kinda
@wary flame no

[solemn latch]

what library 🤔

[wary flame]

Or his english is just hard to understand correctly

Might be me

[solemn latch]

sometimes you have to understand what is meant, not what is said - woo

[slender thistle]

Me understanding it might say it's just you

Could you please elaborate though? Add a command to your bot through your code? @floral mulch

[floral mulch]

Or his english is just hard to understand correctly
@wary flame I'm asking how to give command so bot will react

Could you please elaborate though? Add a command to your bot through your code? @floral mulch
@slender thistle show me a example please

😒

[wary flame]

<Client>.on('message', msg => {
if(msg.content === '!ping') {
msg.channel.send('pong')
}
})

@floral mulch simple ping cmd

In d.js

[floral mulch]

😐

[slender thistle]

What's the library your bot is written in?

[drifting wedge]

serverCount = len(client.guilds)

this works

[drifting wedge]

memberserver = len(client.users)

for a server?

or is it something else?

[wary flame]

Hmm? Are you asking for support on that bot?

[floral mulch]

You know prefix of this bot?

[drifting wedge]

owo

[slender thistle]

You'll have to ask the bot's support server

[drifting wedge]

shivaco, is memberserver = len(client.users) correct?

this sends for all servers

[earnest phoenix]

@slender thistle Just pull the -wrongserver card

[drifting wedge]

how can i do it for only 1 server

[floral mulch]

You'll have to ask the bot's support server
@slender thistle oh ok..
Thank you so much

[solemn latch]

0exe, tim and i gave you how to do for one guild and for all guilds earlier

[slender thistle]

shivaco, is memberserver = len(client.users) correct?
@drifting wedge Do you want to get all users cached or members of a server?

[drifting wedge]

members of a server @slender thistle

like for a server

not all users

[slender thistle]

len(guild.members) where guild is a Guild object

[solemn latch]

wouldnt
guild.member_count be more correct?

[slender thistle]

... yup, I'm just too used to caching everything

[drifting wedge]

ty

[quartz kindle]

stop torturing your server shiv

meanie

[slender thistle]

My private bots are fine ok

[quartz kindle]

ok

[drifting wedge]

i need to define guilds

guild

[quartz kindle]

dpy probably has message.guild no?

if not, it surely has message.channel.guild

[drifting wedge]

but

like where do i define guild?

get_guild?

[solemn latch]

depends on where you are at. if this is a command, you can use message.guild
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html?highlight=message guild#discord.Message.guild

[slender thistle]

message.guild works yeah

[quartz kindle]

if you're doing this for a command, then you should get the guild from the message, in order to get the guild where the command was used in

[drifting wedge]

async def membercount(ctx):
    memberserver = guild.member_count

    embed = discord.Embed(
        colour = discord.Colour.blue()
    )

    embed.set_author(name='Arch | Membercount', icon_url=f"{client.user.avatar_url}")
    embed.add_field(name="Server Members:", value=memberserver)
    embed.set_thumbnail(url=f"https://imgur.com/kmtYlLV.jpg")

    embed.set_footer(text=f"{ctx.guild.name}", icon_url=f"{ctx.guild.icon_url}")
    embed.timestamp = datetime.datetime.utcnow()

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

where thp

[slender thistle]

ctx.message

[drifting wedge]

im retard if you dont know

ok

[quartz kindle]

unless you want to make a command that gets information from a different guild

[slender thistle]

No wait

Easier way is ctx.guild

[earnest phoenix]

:ddd

[slender thistle]

Just get ctx.guild.member_count

[quartz kindle]

@drifting wedge

[drifting wedge]

?

?

[quartz kindle]

you're literally already doing the right thing

[solemn latch]

thats your code

[quartz kindle]

just do the same thing as that

but with member_count

instead of name or icon_url

[drifting wedge]

in the messgage?

[solemn latch]

🤔

[quartz kindle]

you want to get the member_count from a guild

ctx.guild is your guild

just use it, the same way you used it in the embed

[solemn latch]

you already used ctx.guild
his point was you probably should know how to get a guild since you already did it twice

[quartz kindle]

^

[drifting wedge]

this is what i have then ```@client.command(aliases=['members'])
async def membercount(ctx):

embed = discord.Embed(
    colour = discord.Colour.blue()
)

embed.set_author(name='Arch | Membercount', icon_url=f"{client.user.avatar_url}")
embed.add_field(name="Server Members:", value=f'{ctx.guild.member_count}')
embed.set_thumbnail(url=f"https://imgur.com/kmtYlLV.jpg")

embed.set_footer(text=f"{ctx.guild.name}", icon_url=f"{ctx.guild.icon_url}")
embed.timestamp = datetime.datetime.utcnow()

await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

imma try it

[slender thistle]

Could just

you know

str() everything

Not everything has to be an f-string

[pale vessel]

can't you icon_url=client.user.avatar_url?

or is that not how it works lul

[solemn latch]

f strings are like `${thingy}` in js?

[pale vessel]

yeah

[viral iris]

is it const mongoose...... ?

[pale vessel]

the problem isn't what you defined it as

the module is missing

[viral iris]

?

[pale vessel]

you most likely didn't include that module in your package.json file

which what heroku relies on

[viral iris]

i did

[pale vessel]

can you show the file?

[viral iris]

so remove all packages?

[pale vessel]

like just delete your package-lock.json

[trail forge]

how to make that if the red thing is not set then its going to be other specified vc [ 743655540047085578 ]

[viral iris]

like just delete your package-lock.json
@pale vessel fixed

thx ❤️

[slender thistle]

@pale vessel avatar_url returns an Attachment object but d.py implicitly stringifies everything in embeds

so yes it's possible but not as explicit

[stable eagle]

let pref = db.get(prefix.${message.guild.id}); I get this error? ReferenceError: message is not defined

[sterile thicket]

let pref = db.get(prefix.${message.guild.id}); I get this error? ReferenceError: message is not defined
@stable eagle you must put that code in a OnMessage event with 'message' defined on it

is it possible to make it wen a member bans a certain amout of people it takes their roles or gives them roles?
@still badge yes

[still badge]

any tips to make it?

[tulip ledge]

how much ping will compressing and decompressing data add

[sterile thicket]

You can fetch audit logs

[tulip ledge]

As I store alot of things for a user and was thinking of maybe compressing it

[still badge]

@sterile thicket ban 5 ppl within a time limit

[sand condor]

what library

[still badge]

or a certain amount of people in a certain time

[sand condor]

library?

[viral iris]

You can fetch audit logs
@sterile thicket 1sec

[sterile thicket]

You need to fetch it from audit logs

[still badge]

im using discord.js

[sick cloud]

using express, can i reroute requests roughly, ie if my endpoint is on /v1/user but the request is just made to /user, can i reroute it without losing anything (data)

[drifting wedge]

@coral lichen @earnest phoenix fake mee6s

[sand condor]

you can listen to the guildBanAdd event

[viral iris]

https://hastebin.com/cosicuyisu.pl

[sand condor]

and store results in a database or something

[tulip ledge]

will compressing and decompressing my data for my database slow down my stuff?

[viral iris]

@sterile thicket https://hastebin.com/cosicuyisu.pl

[still badge]

@sand condor do u need a db?

to do it?

[sand condor]

there could be a different way

[sterile thicket]

Oh I was trying to help Pickle here

[still badge]

yeah i need a different way

[sand condor]

but there's not like a ban collector in d.js

[sterile thicket]

I'm not sure about your error, sorry

[viral iris]

@pale vessel can u help ?

[drifting wedge]

do you guys add the bots here?

like if i make a bot and it gets added

does it stay here?

[tulip ledge]

yes

[sterile thicket]

@still badge you will need to fetch the executor from audit logs then set a timer I guess

[drifting wedge]

thats helpful

[tulip ledge]

but wrong channel #support

[drifting wedge]

its like free 100k members

[harsh badge]

lol

[tulip ledge]

Members sais nothing

It's guilds that s ay alot lol

[still badge]

@still badge you will need to fetch the executor details from audit logs then set a timer I guess
@sterile thicket ok ty

[slow ether]

what's the best language to use for bot coding, i use pyton but it be mean to me

[misty sigil]

there is no best lang

just depends what u need lmao

[slow ether]

the easiest

[misty sigil]

js then

[slow ether]

o

[misty sigil]

but watch out for memory leaks and shite

[slow ether]

...

[misty sigil]

its hard to leak memory

but you can still do it

[slow ether]

idk how to use java at all

[misty sigil]

its java script

not java

[slow ether]

uhuh

ik

[misty sigil]

there is a difference

[slow ether]

idk how to use it tho

[misty sigil]

well just stick with python?

you're obviously know it if you're using it for a bot

[slow ether]

ok

[sacred pewter]

How can I do coding in a mobile?

[regal jacinth]

hey so i made a dashboard (not completed yet) which is connected to my bot and i want the user who enters it to login with his/er discord acc
i searched and found that i need to do something with oAth or something
but idk how
can someone pls tell me?
ping me if u can

@sacred pewter with an app

[sacred pewter]

Which one?

[regal jacinth]

depends on the long ig

[sacred pewter]

And what library it is....

[regal jacinth]

lang*

[slender thistle]

First you are supposed to redirect the user to /api/oauth2/authorize with the required url parameters (client_id, redirect_uri, response_type, scope). redirect_uri must be a value which exists in your app's redirect uri list. If and when the authorization process is done it will redirect the user to your redirect url with a url parameter named code e.g https://domain.com?code=x.

In order to exchange for an access token you need to make a POST call to /api/oauth2/token with these values in the body; grant_type, client_id, client_secret, redirect_uri, code. They need to match the values that were used in /api/oauth2/authorize (first request you made) and for code you use the code you got in the url parameter (?code=).

If the request was successful, you'll get a JSON response which contains a access_token and a refresh_token field. You need to cache it. Cache the refresh_token too if you want to do automatic token refreshes. Access tokens usually last for a week so you can choose whether you want to make your sessions last a week or if you want to do automatic token refreshes.

Skip this paragraph if you don't want automatic token refreshes
When you've made your request to /api/oauth2/authorize (request above) the JSON response will also contain a expires_in field. It's saying how long until the token expires in seconds. You can cache it or put it in a database, however don't lose it. Once the token is expired, you want to exchange the expired token for a refreshed one. Repeat the process above and make a POST call to /api/oauth2/authorize except you're going to throw out code out of the body and replace it with refresh_token which you should have cached as said above. 

Anyways, you use that access token in authorization headers now. For e.g to get info about your logged in user you call /api/users/@me with the Authorization header set to Bearer token

[regal jacinth]

holy

[slender thistle]

Once you get a hang of it, it's not that complicated

[quartz kindle]

do the implicit grant flow, its easier

the only downside is that your users will need to login again every time it expires

[sacred pewter]

Which library does Bot designer for discord in mobile uses?

[slender thistle]

Most likely discord.js

Could you maybe upload the log to a txt file

[viral iris]

yea sure

1min

[wary flame]

Thx

[viral iris]

i didn't do that cuz some of them don't download files thats why

[wary flame]

Most of the time hastebin is better

[viral iris]

Thx
@wary flame no thank u for help ❤️

[wary flame]

Mobile just hates hastebin

It indeed failed at the collection install (compiling trough node-gyp)

[viral iris]

so what to do ?

[quartz kindle]

do you actually need this collection package?

what are you using it for?

[viral iris]

yes for the mongo.db

[quartz kindle]

why does mongo.db need it?

[viral iris]

to collect the files/ folders

bot.commands = new Collection();
bot.aliases = new Collection();
bot.mongoose = require('./utils/mongoose.js');


///
bot.commands = new Discord.Collection();
bot.aliases = new Discord.Collection();

[wary flame]

@viral iris the package was last updated 6 years ago and already failed to build with node 4 (when looking tough issues on github),
I wouldnt expect it to build correctly on node 12 (your version) use collections (still developed)

[wary flame]

But why are you not using discord collections?

How to do a auto delete a command after 5 seconds in Bit designer for discord (mobile)?
@sacred pewter They have a support server ask there

[viral iris]

But why are you not using discord collections?
@wary flame is it better ?

idk i got it from source code

[restive furnace]

dont copy paste, OK.

[wary flame]

At least it installs...

[quartz kindle]

@viral iris thats a completely different thing

[viral iris]

dont copy paste, OK.
@restive furnace shut up

[quartz kindle]

those have nothing to do with the collection.js module

[wary flame]

idk i got it from source code
@viral iris source code probably was made for node 0.something (the version in wich the module did work)

[restive furnace]

why would I, and no. I am just helping you. 😂.

[viral iris]

i not asking for help from u

[restive furnace]

Well, why you did ask a question in this channel then?? 🤔

[viral iris]

@viral iris source code probably was made for node 0.something (the version in wich the module did work)
@wary flame so use discord collections or change node version ?

[wary flame]

Use discord collections

[restive furnace]

you can literally use Map.

[wary flame]

Or maps indeed

[quartz kindle]

delete the collection.js package, you dont need it

its a completely different thing

[feral aspen]

.map()

[wary flame]

No

Thats for arrays

[feral aspen]

oh woops,, sorry

[restive furnace]

let brandNewMap = new Map();
brandNewMap.set("hello", "bye");```

thats how do you use Maps.

[feral aspen]

Hello, just a question

[viral iris]

@wary flame @discordjs/collection 0.1.6 this right ?

[restive furnace]

you dont need any

just literally use Discord#Collection.

[wary flame]

Just use Discord.Collection

[viral iris]

what's the version ?

[wary flame]

You already have d.js

[restive furnace]

you dont need package

[quartz kindle]

discordjs/collection is included inside discord.js

you dont need to install it separately

[wary flame]

^

[viral iris]

only ```js
require("Discord.Collection");

[wary flame]

No

You already require discord.js somewhere right?

[viral iris]

i mena ```js
const Collection = require("Discord.Collection");

[quartz kindle]

no

[viral iris]

You already require discord.js somewhere right?
@wary flame yws

[wary flame]

No

[viral iris]

yes*

[tight plinth]

@viral iris nah

[viral iris]

server.js

[wary flame]

Just use Discord.Collection

[tight plinth]

first you require discord.js

then you store the collection property of it

[wary flame]

No requiring it, you already required d.js

[tight plinth]

No requring it, you already required d.js
@wary flame or not who knows

[feral aspen]

I am now making a loop to show the command category and the list of it's commands, ```const categories = readdirSync("./commands/")

    let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
    .setTitle('Attitude Help Center')
    .setDescription(`These are the list of commands you could use! you can get more information about a specific command by using **\`!help <command>\`**. **(Example: \`!help donate\`)**.\n\nFor arguments in commands:\n\`<>\` means it's required\n\`()\` means it's optional\n\`[]\` means you have to choose one of the following\n**Do not actually include the <>, (), or {} symbols in the command.**`)
    .setColor(colors.cyan)
    .setFooter(`${message.guild.me.displayName} | Total Commandds: ${bot.commands.size}`, bot.user.displayAvatarURL())

    categories.forEach(category => {
        const dir = bot.commands.filter(c => c.config.category === category)
        const capitalise = category.slice(0, 1).toUpperCase() + category.slice(1)
        try {
            embed.addField(`${capitalise} [${dir.size}]:`, dir.map(c => `\`${c.config.name}\``).join(" "), true)
        } catch(e) {
            console.log(e)
        }
    })

return message.channel.send(embed)```

Now it is made by a loop, and I dont want that tbh, I just want to make a field, show it's title, its description, now the question is. If I want to show the total number of commands in a SPECIFIC category, how can I do that? The loop on it is dir.size, how can I do it for specific

[viral iris]

const Discord = require("discord.js");

[quartz kindle]

const { Collection } = require("discord.js")
a = new Collection();

or

const Discord = require("discord.js")
a = new Discord.Collection();

[viral iris]

thx ❤️

[wary flame]

@wary flame or not who knows
@tight plinth I know (||#development message||)

[tight plinth]

o

[feral aspen]

any help for above, please?

[tight plinth]

@feral aspen you better store your bot commands somewhere in your client object when booting up the bot to be able to look at them more easily when executing commands

[feral aspen]

I did that.

I store them in a file

[tight plinth]

in a... file?

[feral aspen]

File> list of files (eg, moderation, economy

then etc.

[tight plinth]

i mean, thats an idea

not an optimal one, but an idea

[feral aspen]

@tight plinth

[tight plinth]

you should make every command an object with properties like name, category, description, code... so you can easily filter them later

@feral aspen

[feral aspen]

Yes

I did that

@tight plinth

Do you see my code above?

[tight plinth]

stop pinging for no reason im still here bud

yes ofc

[feral aspen]

This is the result

stop pinging for no reason im still here bud
@tight plinth Sorry

Now

That is the result, and it is pretty much not good for me,

[tight plinth]

if you just want to have the commands in a specific category, you can use .filter

[feral aspen]

I want it all to be seperate .addfield

[tight plinth]

you can only add up to 25 fields per embed

[feral aspen]

Yup

Ik

But like

[tight plinth]

so that might not be a good idea

[feral aspen]

a Field for economy and its command

a field for information and its commands

a field

BUT

[dreamy cedar]

just make every category in a embed

[tight plinth]

@dreamy cedar no

[feral aspen]

no

[tight plinth]

api abuse

[feral aspen]

that is BORING

[tight plinth]

ratelimit

[feral aspen]

and api abuse

[tight plinth]

if you want to get commands from a category, you can do commands.filter(c => c.category === "category name").forEach(c => ...)

[feral aspen]

Ok one sec.

[tight plinth]

what you want to do exactly

@earnest phoenix no

[feral aspen]

.addfield(The category name, its description, the size of the commandsin that category)

[misty sigil]

Nah I'm not gonna shut

[feral aspen]

        const categories = readdirSync("./commands/")

            const capitalise = category.slice(0, 1).toUpperCase() + category.slice(1)
            try {
                embed.addField(`${capitalise} [${dir.size}]:`, dir.map(c => `\`${c.config.name}\``).join(" "), true)
            } catch(e) {
                console.log(e)
            }
        })

        return message.channel.send(embed)```

[tight plinth]

@feral aspen learn hod addfield works k thx

[still badge]

how do i check audit log perms

if(!message.guild.me.actionType("MEMBER_BAN_ADD")) return('Sorry i dont have permissons!');

like that?

[tight plinth]

learn how to use discord.js guys

docs exists for a reason

[still badge]

-_-

[slender thistle]

Do I go on about how people learn differently

[still badge]

ik

its called development for a reason

[slender thistle]

and that if you don't feel like helping, why you should even say anything in the first place

[feral aspen]

Don't be like that..

shivaco

question?

[slender thistle]

Possible answer?

[feral aspen]

I am making addfields, the field contains the category name, the category description (which is from my own), and the size of the category

            const dir = bot.commands.filter(c => c.config.category === "economy")
            const capitalise = category.slice(0, 1).toUpperCase() + category.slice(1)
            try {
                embed.addField(`${capitalise} [${dir.size}]:`, dir.map(c => `\`${c.config.name}\``).join(" "), true)
            } catch(e) {
                console.log(e)
            }
        })```

I did this

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/272764566411149314/743871916137513060/unknown.png

I made a SINGLE category ONLY for economy, but the above happened.. 😛

How can I make it only one time instead of a loop

[slender thistle]

Sorry, I'm mostly a Python person

You'll have to wait for someone who's more familiar with discord.js

[tight plinth]

don't do that in the categories for each loop

try using a different approach

[feral aspen]

do I public the const stuff?

but that will get rid of category as a variable

[amber fractal]

You should get the commands in the category instead of all commands

[tight plinth]

^

[amber fractal]

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/is28m_5643.png you're trying to do something like this yeah?

[feral aspen]

Yes.

[amber fractal]

You have the right idea

you're just doing it in a for loop

[feral aspen]

Yes, and I want to prevent that

[amber fractal]

actually if you just remove the foreach loop and keep what's inside it, it should work

Because you're getting the same repeating category over and over again

[tight plinth]

you know what to do right? check for args, if args check if args = category name, if true send specific embed if no args send normal embed

like that

[feral aspen]

Yup

I will do that after I do the BASIC EMBED FOR HELP

caps

oof

[amber fractal]

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/6ma7ao_5644.png that should work I think

[tight plinth]

that should work

[feral aspen]

Ok

Ill tyr

try

one sec

But no

It got rid of the category variable

[tight plinth]

and?

[feral aspen]

category not defined

[amber fractal]

You'll have the category in the args

[tight plinth]

if there is args

[amber fractal]

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/f1d18b_5645.png this is your category right?

[feral aspen]

Yup

[amber fractal]

you hard coded this one, that's why it works there

[feral aspen]

And I want to make a field, containing the category name, description, and total commands in that category

[fluid sonnet]

guys i have a question

how save a console.log to a txt file?

[tight plinth]

@fluid sonnet if youre using pm2 it does it automatically for u

[amber fractal]

Wait are you trying to get all commands or just economy commands

[feral aspen]

Wait are you trying to get all commands or just economy commands
@amber fractal just economy commands,

[fluid sonnet]

@fluid sonnet if youre using pm2 it does it automaticly for u
@tight plinth pm2 🤔

i search

[feral aspen]

then I will keep repeating it for the other categories..

[fluid sonnet]

thx @tight plinth

[amber fractal]

Well, you can generalize it...

[tight plinth]

,p

[feral aspen]

with different defenitions.

[tight plinth]

@feral aspen you know you can make it somehow automatized

if my english is correct

[feral aspen]

yes.

[fluid sonnet]

but @tight plinth y don't use pm2

[tight plinth]

?

[amber fractal]

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/6eta5_5646.png like this handles all of my categories

I could use filter as well, but I didnt think about that at the time

[feral aspen]

what can I do in my case.

[fluid sonnet]

how save a console.log to a txt file?
a module don't exist for this ?

[feral aspen]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/272764566411149314/743871916137513060/unknown.png

I have that.

and removing the foreach loop removes the category variable

[amber fractal]

Well, economy is hard coded in at one point, so you'd have to hard code it at the other points if you want it to be defined when you remove the foreach

[tight plinth]

@feral aspen first thing first: do you know what each line of your code exactly does?

[feral aspen]

@feral aspen first thing first: do you know what each line of your code exactly does?
@tight plinth Yes man, wtf.

[tight plinth]

apparently it doesnt seems to

re analyze your code line per line you try to found the error

[feral aspen]

should I make a variable for the category

?

[tight plinth]

[viral iris]

how to set the prefix in command handler ?

[tight plinth]

show your current code

@viral iris depends whats ur command handler

[amber fractal]

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/47hwo_5647.png

[feral aspen]

This is my current code

        const categories = readdirSync("./commands/")

        let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setTitle('Attitude Help Center')
        .setDescription(`These are the list of commands you could use! you can get more information about a specific command by using **\`!help <command>\`**. **(Example: \`!help donate\`)**.\n\nFor arguments in commands:\n\`<>\` means it's required\n\`()\` means it's optional\n\`[]\` means you have to choose one of the following\n**Do not actually include the <>, (), or {} symbols in the command.**`)
        .setColor(colors.cyan)
        .setFooter(`${message.guild.me.displayName} | Total Commandds: ${bot.commands.size}`, bot.user.displayAvatarURL())


        
            const dir = bot.commands.filter(c => c.config.category === "economy")
            const capitalise = category.slice(0, 1).toUpperCase() + category.slice(1)
            try {
                embed.addField(`${capitalise} [${dir.size}]:`, dir.map(c => `\`${c.config.name}\``).join(" "), true)
            } catch(e) {
                console.log(e)
            }

        return message.channel.send(embed)```

[still badge]

if(!message.guild.me.actionType("MEMBER_BAN_ADD")) return('Sorry i dont have permissons!');

is this how to check audit?

[tight plinth]

if there is no args

[viral iris]

@viral iris depends whats ur command handler
@tight plinth wdym ?

[amber fractal]

your category in this case is always economy because of the previous hard coded statement.

[tight plinth]

@still badge ist there a view audit log perm?

@viral iris did you made your command handler

[viral iris]

yes

[still badge]

yeah but i need to check audit for my comand

command

[tight plinth]

i bet VIEW_AUDIT_LOGS is a thing

[still badge]

thats the actual perm

[tight plinth]

yes
@viral iris in this case you should kno whow it works

[still badge]

i need to view the actual logs

[tight plinth]

?

[still badge]

and a certain thing in the log

[tight plinth]

wdym

also having ban perms doesnt give you audit log perms, you need to have audit logs perms

[still badge]

yes i k

ik

[viral iris]

@viral iris in this case you should kno whow it works
@tight plinth idk where

[still badge]

idk how to explain it

[tight plinth]

are you 100% sure you made your command handler @viral iris

[viral iris]

my friend did

[tight plinth]

make your own

having someone else coding something for you is generally not a good idea unless you know what youre doing

[faint prism]

ie. trustworthy and competent

[sudden geyser]

internet escapist

[feral aspen]

            const generaldir = bot.commands.filter(c => c.config.generalcategory === "general")
            try {
                embed.addField(`🎲 General [${generaldir.size}]:`, `*Attitude's general commands you could use to check out pings, and more.*`, true)
            } catch(e) {
                console.log(e)
            }```

why does it say 0

it should count the number of commands in that specific category

[sudden geyser]

because nothing passed the filter. You could log c.config.generalcategory to see what you're getting.

[feral aspen]

ok

[sudden geyser]

By the way, since I assume you store the categories in memory such as a property, do you really need to read the ./commands/general directory?

[dusky mason]

wat u need help wit

[acoustic bridge]

Greetings,
I'm looking for some advice on how to send a Message via Bot to a specific Channel (via ID of the channel)

@client.command()
async def send(ctx, channel, *, content):
    channel = client.get_channel(id)
    await message.channel.send(content)

This is how my code looks right now - but obviously it's not working - Written in Discord Py by the way

[slender thistle]

get_channel accepts an ID in integer datatype

[acoustic bridge]

So the id in the () is useless?

[slender thistle]

You will need to replace it with an actual ID of a channel your bot has access to

Also, you do channel.send, not message.channel.send

[acoustic bridge]

I see - but my intentions are to send it to any channel it has access to

For example I will need to post it either in a suggestion channel or an announcement channel

[faint prism]

get_channel accepts an ID in integer datatype
@slender thistle isn't it a ulong?

or does JS python not specify that

[slender thistle]

py doesn't have a separate datatype for that

[faint prism]

how convenient, ty lol

[slender thistle]

l0l

[slender thistle]

@acoustic bridge oh, user input

[faint prism]

one number type to rule them all

[slender thistle]

You can do channel: int and then channel = client.get_channel(channel)

I'd suggest renaming the function parameter to channel_id to avoid confusion though

[acoustic bridge]

I see - I'll try that. And yes I often worked with channel_id

[faint prism]

descriptive variable names are good practice

[acoustic bridge]

Got confused on some parts. Thanks a lot

[olive narwhal]

boys i just switched servers for my discord bot, and when i uploaded it to top.gg i put a diffrent support server link, how do i update it?>????

@slender thistle damn

[sudden geyser]

I think you can still edit the bot (at least an edit button or something)

[olive narwhal]

ik

i just did 🙂

[sudden geyser]

nice

and yes python good at handling numbers

[knotty steeple]

lol moment https://modeus.is-inside.me/e1Oq0i1y.png

[sudden geyser]

javascript

[knotty steeple]

u have to make it a bigint

[slender thistle]

Python handles numbers quite well for the most part

Float precision still being a small issue though

[faint prism]

lel

[knotty steeple]

y not just do **

man

[faint prism]

Because C# supports carots

[slender thistle]

^ happens to be power in C#?

[faint prism]

yep

** is something for pointers

[knotty steeple]

thonk

[slender thistle]

Ah right

[faint prism]

I really like how I can eval C# with my bot

[knotty steeple]

mood https://modeus.is-inside.me/R2n2Hj42.png

[faint prism]

Since there really isn't a quick way to interpret C#

[knotty steeple]

use a lua interpreter

[faint prism]

Nah CSharpScript via Roslyn api is low-key sick af

[acoustic bridge]

async def send(ctx, channel, *, content):
    channel: int
    channel = channel.get_channel(channel_id)
    await channel.send(content)

Still not working - although

[modest crane]

Nah CSharpScript via Roslyn api is low-key sick af
i don't think there's another way afaik

[acoustic bridge]

"NameError: "name 'channel' is not defined"

[faint prism]

i don't think there's another way afaik
@modest crane ?

[slender thistle]

@acoustic bridge Are you familiar with function parameters?

Or, well, arguments

[acoustic bridge]

Can you give me an example?

[faint prism]

def myFunction(parameters) {}

myFunction(arguments);

[acoustic bridge]

I see

[faint prism]

CSharpScript is the only way currently implemented to use interpreted code I think

[acoustic bridge]

So I guess the parameter channel is the issue

[faint prism]

what is , *, is that just a generic object in python?

[slender thistle]

Mhm

Rename it to channel_id

[acoustic bridge]

do I have to change the rest of the channel to channel_id too?

[slender thistle]

Nah, just the param

[faint prism]

and any references within the function to the renamed variable

[slender thistle]

@faint prism in vanilla Python it's to make an arg only to be used as kwarg

[acoustic bridge]

local variable 'channel' referenced before assignment
Means I basically already defined channel somehere?

[slender thistle]

aka

def test(var, *, yeet):
    print(yeet)

# will work
test(2, yeet=5)

# won't work
test(2, 5)```

[faint prism]

ah

an optional param

[slender thistle]

No, that means the variable doesn't have a value at the time of usage

well, no

Optional param is a param with a default value (arg = 5)

That's just keyword-only argument

[faint prism]

in C# we can do:

if (object obj1, object obj2 = null)  // Second one has default value and is optionally specified when referenced

[slender thistle]

Yeah, same in Python

[faint prism]

and chaining them is interesting

[slender thistle]

How come?

[faint prism]

void Function(object obj1, object obj2 = null, object obj3 = null)
{
  // code
}

Function("", obj3: "")

You can specify the third, and skip the second if you're explicit

assuming the last 2 are optional

Shiv, you gotta let me teach you C# some time

[timber plume]

What are some good, free hosts to use?

[tight plinth]

good and free doesn't exist

[timber plume]

i mean

[tight plinth]

good and for less than 5$ a month yeah that's possible

[timber plume]

i used heroku

that was ok

any thing that works

and is easy to naviagter

is good for me

[solemn latch]

heroku isnt a good host. nor is it intended to be used for bots

[dull sluice]

make a map instead so that you can set a value
const talkedRecently = new Map();
// bunch of other code
talkedRecently.set(message.author.id, Date.now())

and then when you check for message.author.id in talkedRecently you can check if it's been 10 seconds or whatever

ok so you would do like

message.reply('You have to wait 10 seconds!')
return
}

sorry about the bad indenting

but anyway that would check if it has been 10 seconds, and if it hasnt, it returns the message

k

[misty sigil]

you're forgetting a bracket

[dull sluice]

oh also other way around
Date.now() - talkedRecently.get(message.author.id) >= 1000

ok here is what mine looks like that works

            message.channel.send("This command has a 10 second cooldown!")
            return;
        }
        message.delete()
        talkedRecently.set(message.author.id, Date.now())
}```

did you make it a map

talkedRecently = new Map()

talkedRecently = new Set()
needs to be
talkedRecently = new Map()

np

also @earnest phoenix i see in your error message that you have Date.now() - talkedRecently.get(message.author.id) <= 10
the Date.now() function gives you the time in milliseconds, so you need to make that 10000, not 10

ok 👍

[earnest phoenix]

let randomvalue = test[Math.floor(Math.random() *test.length)], you can thank me later.

[digital ibex]

y do people use let when u aint reassigning it to smthing, use const

[slender thistle]

What does it matter tbh

[digital ibex]

it defies the point of const

[earnest phoenix]

linter would be pissed

[digital ibex]

i find it annnoying

[misty sigil]

const = single thing u dont reassign
let = movey thing that changes
var = ???

[earnest phoenix]

Python looks much cleaner though, agreed? @slender thistle

import random

list = ['shvaco', 'is', 'a', 'weeb']
print(random.choice(list))

[misty sigil]

who is shvaco
