fix my problem someone 
misty sigil
what next? It gives you a role on every message?
drifting wedge
like it sends emoji info
steady anchor
if(!welcomechannel.permissionsFor(member.guild.me).has('SEND_MESSAGES'))return
@misty sigil thx
misty sigil
no prob!
hazy sparrow
message.channel.send(`Successfully purged **${deleteAmount}** messages.`).then(m=>{m.delete(5000)})
its not deleting after 5 secs
cinder patio
Any errors?
misty sigil
use set timeout
cinder patio
Does it not delete at all, or does it get deleted immidietly?
hazy sparrow
doesesnt delete at all
heres the full code
else {
deleteAmount = parseInt(args[0]);
}
message.channel.bulkDelete(deleteAmount + 1, true);
message.channel.send(`Successfully purged **${deleteAmount}** messages.`).then(m=>{m.delete(5000)})
sudden geyser
bow pro what Discord.js version are you using
hazy sparrow
v12
sudden geyser
.delete() takes an object.
Give it an object with a timeout key
In milliseconds
hazy sparrow
ty
cinder patio
hmm.. would that be a reason for the message to not get deleted at all though
sudden geyser
If you pass anything other than an object it throws an error.
hazy sparrow
theres a promise rejection warning, does that count?
sudden geyser
Yes
calm saddle
i basically gave up on my d.js bot cause glitch decided to ban people from using external hosters :\
sudden geyser
You mean pingers.
earnest phoenix
@calm saddle heroku ?
faint prism
Use a VPS to run the bot service ||or Self-host||
calm saddle
yess
misty sigil
imagine hosting on glitch
reasons it’s bad
- Low RAM
- Ratelimits
- Low disk space
faint prism
free
restive furnace
fReE
calm saddle
lmaoo
misty sigil
any """""""""""free""""""""""" hosting is either:
- not intended to be used as hosting for bots
- not actually suitable for hosting for bots
- not actually free
- will get your token stolen
- all of the above
faint prism
free vps (by some rando) = getting bot token stolen
calm saddle
i rather not spend money ._.
faint prism
I'd imagine when people are like, "Oh yeah I'll host your bot for free", they just want to steal the token and snoop your files you put on their server
cinder patio
Prices start at around 2.50$
faint prism
👁️ I C all of it
sudden geyser
If you don't want to pay there are some alternatives, like having a GitHub student pack and using AWS cloud
misty sigil
your bot goes offline forever because you had no backups 
cinder patio
I mean, what's the token for if the bot isn't online in the first place
i doubt it would be in any servers
misty sigil
still
I could wait for it to grow
implement server logging
hits 100 servers
POOF, gone
cinder patio
DigitalOcean gives you 500 credits that last for 2 months
faint prism
The token will be plaintext on runtime in memory anyways, just don't use sketchy VPSes and you'll be good ||probably||
misty sigil
so basically don’t trust randos for hosting
calm saddle
I just use a chrome a extension to reload my bots glitch webpage (you know the one used to ping it) and reload that page every 5 sec but that requires me to leave that page open =_=
misty sigil
just host it on your pc then
faint prism
well I love having a headless server with my bot's process runnning as a systemctl service
misty sigil
well I love having a headless server with my bot's process runnning as a systemctl service
@faint prism same
faint prism
I use a rasp pi 4, I need a UPS though 😛
cinder patio
You're just trying to cheat the system at this point, you'd be better off just getting a cheap VPS. Even a 1 core 1 GB memory would be good to start with
misty sigil
I use a vps cus I physically cannot be arsed to hold up that laptop I was using to host before
faint prism
or even 1 core, 512Mb ram, 10 GB hdd 
cinder patio
That would cost... around 2 bucks a month
faint prism
tbh server space is so cheap
dull badger
help 😭
faint prism
$0.06 a day, or $0.003 an hr

is t possible to pull a random image from google drive?
faint prism
probably
faint prism
Is this a promotional ad? l0l?
faint prism
I have a folder with 100k pictures
@solemn leaf I could see you having an array of gdrive image links and selecting one at random
restive furnace
theres api i believe
faint prism
yeah, gdrive api
sudden geyser
faint prism
so populate a collection of gdrive image links via their api, then select one at random
dull badger
@misty sigil İf i send you a invite link in glitch can you fix
bcs i dont understand you
sudden geyser
@dull badger this may be helpful: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/Arrow_functions
solemn leaf
how do use gdrrive api
faint prism
Use a library for it
solemn leaf
is it like a npm?
faint prism
probably a package there, yeah
hollow snow
@hollow snow how so? repl.it is not meant for hosting Discord bots either.
@sudden geyser Its real, I did it. Let me find the link. There are only 3 websites I found mentioning about this method. https://www.codementor.io/@garethdwyer/building-a-discord-bot-with-node-js-and-repl-it-mm46r1u8y

@hollow snow thats not real repl.it blog tbh
its ment to test things
not to host in prod
restive furnace
"as long as it works" cough
solemn leaf
maybe the ping is like 10000 ms but it works
sudden geyser
- That is not an official blog from repl.it like free said.
- You could use that same method on Glitch in the past until they started blocking bots.
Hosting on repl.it is no better than hosting on Glitch. They both do the same thing and come at the same cost. Just because it "works" doesn't mean it's a good solution.
restive furnace
glitch v2 ping is around 2 minutes (in ms multiply 2 by 60 and then with 1000)
faint prism
When I first made a bot, I just left the process running and my desktop on 24/7 for a week lol
restive furnace
but it works
hollow snow
and I found out you can just ping "website.com" and "website.com/" as different monitors but same site
When I first made a bot, I just left the process running and my desktop on 24/7 for a week lol
@faint prism bruh
faint prism
Nothing wrong with that, just not efficient power consumption-wise
faint prism
Use rpi

the NQN bot is deleted?
hazy sparrow
if(parseInt(args[0]) > 100) {
message.channel.send('You can only purge 100 messages at a time.')
it doesent even sedn the message. only console logs this when i never made it log anything

What Im trying to do is get a random image from this https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/image

rule of thumb, bad idea to ignore errors
hazy sparrow
rule of thumb, bad idea to ignore errors
@opal plank it deletes as i wanted it to. it just shows that in the console
opal plank
well i dont see anything in console. so its error'ing somewhere
debug it
vsc has amazing debugger tools
step debug and see where the error is thrown
hazy sparrow
should i worry about this? my commands work perfectly
this is the console ss
hazy sparrow
lemme debug hold on
opal plank
dont spam ur console with errors
hazy sparrow
im on 32bit :/
opal plank
none of my business, but you should update to 64x
a LOT of shit nowadays dont support 32x arch
hazy sparrow
yup, ik
sudden geyser
@hazy sparrow there's no guarantee parseInt will be able to convert the string into a number. It'll likely return NaN if it can't. You should see what the value of deleteAmount is before you try bulk deleting messages (in a debugger like Erwin said).
opal plank
^^
hazy sparrow
hmm so can i just console.log deleteAmount?
opal plank
you need to see where the error is being thrown beforehand
also you arent dealing with normal api errors
sudden geyser
Also here's a possible typo: parseInt(args[0] <= 0)
Did you mean to move the <= less than or equal to sign outside this function (this is not what causes the error)?
sudden geyser
14 days
opal plank
you should handle rejections
hazy sparrow
Also here's a possible typo:
parseInt(args[0] <= 0)Did you mean to move the
<=less than or equal to sign outside this function (this is not what causes the error)?
@sudden geyser nope, its exactly what i want
opal plank
it'll resolve the () first iirc
sudden geyser
You're trying to see if a string is greater than or less than a number, then passing the value (true/false) to parseInt()
That does not make sense.
opal plank
args[0] typeof string <= smaller or equal than 0 type of number
you cant compare different types
even if it does compare, you are parsing true
hazy sparrow
i think i got it where the rejection is there, brb

cunning parcel
hi
hazy sparrow
@hazy sparrow there's no guarantee
parseIntwill be able to convert the string into a number. It'll likely returnNaNif it can't. You should see what the value ofdeleteAmountis before you try bulk deleting messages (in a debugger like Erwin said).
@sudden geyser it just says "Successfully purged NaN messages." and doesesnt delete any messages
dusty tulip
My friends want to activate his bot
hazy sparrow
yup
dusty tulip
But it always say error
hazy sparrow
correct
opal plank
args[0] lets assing '1' as a dummy value
opal plank
so '1' <= 0
you are comparing '1' which is a string to 0 which is a number
that will return NaN
actually
hazy sparrow
wot?
faint prism
lol
opal plank
then you are trying to parseInt(true)
hazy sparrow
yep
opal plank
its retarded that you can compare strings and numbers
golden condor

that's the problem with implicit conversions

b-but havent with ()

just pls use addFields()

@opal plank you should see my rock paper scissors code lmao

@opal plank I'm glad C# doesn't allow those conversions. Makes more since not to be able to tbh.
hazy sparrow
you were there too?

@faint prism C# is right, js is the fuckboy of the group who just compiles whatever you throw at it. Shit is like weed, it'll grow even on concrete

Yanderedev code
opal plank
yandere doesnt have that much of a big brain
sonic lodge
it's undefined because you aren't providing a value for the second argument of addField()
opal plank
sonic lodge
and the point of addFields is to not have to write addField over and over
opal plank
or this if you need an example
preferably you wouldnt even use embed builders in the first place
dull badger
can you fix for me bcs i dont understand you @opal plank
sonic lodge
it's
undefinedbecause you aren't providing a value for the second argument ofaddField()

hey guys

@sonic lodge what
opal plank
probably bad path
sonic lodge
as you can see, .addField() takes 2 parameters and 1 optional one
you have the name, but left the value blank
dull badger
WHY MY MFCKR BRAİN DONT UNDERSTANDS THATS
eternal osprey
@opal plank i am pretty sure all the paths are assigned accordingly
because when i start the bot on vsc
it works
without a problem
opal plank
are you using absolute or relating pathing?
actually i dont even know what lang you using
eternal osprey
i am using discord,js and javascript
opal plank
what is the path or dir you're using?

aight

@dull badger to use a function, you have to provide it with arguments for any parameters it requires ||except for the optional ones||
eternal osprey
pretty sure this is the part
opal plank
you sure the folder is called commands on your vps?
it really sounds like a bad dir name
opal plank
aight
faint prism
it really sounds like a bad dir name
@opal plank That's you're opinion ||and mine as well :)||
opal plank
thats in the vps?
eternal osprey
yeah
opal plank
its the vps we debugging, since its not working there
eternal osprey
should i send my whole file?
or ofc that cannot be the problem
it is inside the vps
cuz the file itself debugs fine
opal plank
can you console log client.commands and see if it has help?
actually, better yet
is ANY commands working?
zenith terrace
@opal plank hows the whitenames 
zenith terrace
Lol
hazy sparrow
@opal plank wait m8 but why does it give the rejection warning only when i try to purge over 100 messages?
opal plank
@hazy sparrow it gives you a lot of warnings
missing permissions, older than 14 days, over 100 messages, no index
you gotta handle it before sending it wherever you can
you should not use the api as your error catcher
hazy sparrow
it says "There was an error: Cannot delete messages which are over 14 days old"
hazy sparrow
when i try to delete over 14d old
eternal osprey
i am fucking stupid
opal plank
which is what i told you would happen
eternal osprey
i actually had set up a prefix command for each guild
and i added the bot with the wrong prefix
eternal osprey
however @opal plank thanks for the help man!
opal plank
howcome that was the error though?
eternal osprey
but it is different for each guild
i had the bot in my old server
where the prefix was $po
but in the new guild the default 9set by me) was %
opal plank
but why is it even trying to get the command if the prefix should be false?
return if prefix doesnt match before attemping to run command
if the prefix was faulty, it shouldnt have ran that command in the first place
cuz, y'know, not the prefix of the guild
eternal osprey
because my other bots
(distance calculator and weather bot)
actually DO run with $po
which means that they were responding to the command
eventhough they didn't have a command named $po help
eternal osprey
i've got no clue

@earnest phoenix show ur model
model? do you mean the codes
@earnest phoenix i dont understand what are trying to do : /
but
bot.users.cache.get("ID")
must be so
i already know it.
@earnest phoenix i see that u use something like
bot.users.cache.get("xp, ID")
it is written on this line : ${bot.users.cache.get(xp[i],level[i].ID.split('_')[1]).tag}
xp[i],level[i] ???
why there is a comma
,
????
@earnest phoenix
i've fixed it now. same error again.
xpLb += `\`#${level.indexOf(level[i]) + 1}\` ${bot.users.cache.get(level[i].ID.split('_')[1]).tag} (**${level[i].data}** Seviye, **${xp[i].data}** XP)\n`
@earnest phoenix how ur xp look like ?
@earnest phoenix bruh
xp[i].level[i]
not level[i] i think
xp doesn't matter right now. let's solve this
let level = db.all().filter(data => data.ID.startsWith(`guild_${message.guild.id}_level_`)).sort((a, b) => b.data - a.data);
I described above
@earnest phoenix what is the error ?

@eternal osprey i am sure the problem relies in here
but i cannot find it
cloud pebble
@earnest phoenix i code in python so
message = await bot.wait_for('message', check=predicate, timeout=5)```
It is able to pass the predicate in only some servers, but fails in othersOnly recently started happening too
earnest phoenix
@cloud pebble oh nvm then
sudden geyser
@cloud pebble is it throwing an error because it's timing out?
cloud pebble
It is throwing the timeout error but extending the timeout doesn't fix it either
sudden geyser
Then are you sure the predicate is returning True? What exactly is the predicate you give it?
cloud pebble
def predicate(message):
return message.channel.id == ctx.channel.id and message.author.id == #####
The predicate checks the message to see if it's from a specific user (the # is replaced with the user ID in the final code) and it definitely returns True, just not in all servers with the bot in
sudden geyser
Yeah so if it doesn't return True in some servers and the timeout is being exceeded, it throws the timeout error?
cloud pebble
Yep
Which I'm guessing is because it can't read the message, but the weird thing is this only recently started happening
sudden geyser
Unless I'm mistaken, isn't that expected behavior? The timeout is exceeded so it throws the timeout error. In some servers it doesn't return True because no messages received actually returned True from the predicate. Also if ##### is supposed to be a user ID, is it also hardcoded and would limit the predicate to only work for one user?
cloud pebble
That's the point, it's a third party bot listening for another bot. I'm trying to figure out why the timeout is being exceeded when the message is clearly there and doing the exact same thing is working in other servers
earnest phoenix
how do i make a changig prefix like ! prefixset 1 and the the prefix chagegs to 1
misty sigil
Do you know database?
sudden geyser
Silent you could try logging the value of message and ctx in the predicate to see if it's being called at all, or which fields don't match (either with print or a proper debugger).
earnest phoenix
nooo......
misty sigil
If not, try quick.db
sudden geyser
You'll need some form of database to do that.
misty sigil
an easy npm package
misty sigil
and then db.get(${message.guild.id}_prefix)
earnest phoenix
right
misty sigil
No
earnest phoenix
then wait
isnt
db.set(
${message.guild.id}_prefix, "prefix")
and
db.get(${message.guild.id}_prefix)
the same
misty sigil
bruh
misty sigil
yes
earnest phoenix
so i put that where
earnest phoenix
that code is for what ?
misty sigil
const prefix = db.get(${message.guild.id}_prefix) ? db.get(${message.guild.id}_prefix) : "default prefix"
earnest phoenix
oof idk mysql
const prefix = db.get(${message.guild.id}_prefix) ? db.get(${message.guild.id}_prefix) : "default prefix"
like this right
misty sigil
I legit just gave you all the prefix things
misty sigil
you don’t need set
that’s if it gets its that prefix
if it doesn’t get its default prefix
opal plank
probably a good idea to cache the prefixes rather than call on every command
earnest phoenix
sory being anoying im very dumb
misty sigil
yes ^
opal plank
map them and change when prefix change
misty sigil
it’s smart
earnest phoenix
map them and change when prefix change
@opal plank wdym
opal plank
you know whats a map() ?
earnest phoenix
no.....
opal plank
then start from there
earnest phoenix
okay
opal plank
here
take a look at this and try a couple snippets till you get the hang
maps are important basics of js
opal plank
misty sigil
ok cool
cinder patio
Wait what are you trying to do
misty sigil
prefix cache
misty sigil
I’d just assume that’d be quicker than the spaghetti I have now
opal plank
hmm
earnest phoenix
but i didnt understand
opal plank
map is basically the result of an object and an array fucking eachother and getting a malformed child
earnest phoenix
like i understaded that i can create new map with new map()
cinder patio
const prefix = cached || await fetched() || "default" you can do this without ternery
opal plank
map is where you map your values
earnest phoenix
map is basically the result of an object and an array fucking eachother and getting a malformed child
@opal plank lol
misty sigil
yes I could
earnest phoenix
ok
opal plank
now you set(key, value)
earnest phoenix
i understanded (i think)
opal plank
like an object
earnest phoenix
yes and
opal plank
property name : value
now to check if it exists
cuz now we added Jessie in it
now the map has one entry (size 1)
opal plank
map.has(bob) => false , only jessie is in the map
earnest phoenix
ok
opal plank
here
earnest phoenix
but sorry
opal plank
you seem to be strafing here
earnest phoenix
im still too DUMB
misty sigil
then don’t add a custom prefix
opal plank
let a = {
bob: 1,
foo: 2,
};

with that website
opal plank
no

misty sigil
a.bob = 1
a.foo = 2
opal plank
again, what is { } in js?
misty sigil
it’s an object
misty sigil
earnest phoenix
ok
opal plank
how do you get the value foo of a?
misty sigil
a.foo
earnest phoenix
new map()
opal plank
misty sigil
sory
earnest phoenix
me is sad
opal plank
you cant use a Object Oriented Programing language without knowing, well, objects
opal plank
yes
earnest phoenix
it means that bob and foo is an object
earnest phoenix
oh right
earnest phoenix
bob: 1,
opal plank
earnest phoenix
lol

Think about it in this way: A Dog is an object. To get the dog's eye color, you would do Dog.eye_color. eye_color is a property of the Dog object.

oof
opal plank
you arent developing, you are copying
opal plank
you are tho
earnest phoenix
no im not
opal plank
you simply cant code a bot if you dont know what an object is
earnest phoenix
dude
i didnt know that was an object
but i can code without knowing it
i didnt copy
fervent goblet
can i find an item in array with js like?
if(thresholdData.threshold.includes({role: rolename.id, level: lvl})) return message.reply('You already have this set as a threshold!')
legends say if you react too fast you get ratelimited
cinder patio
no, you would have to use the some function
opal plank
earnest phoenix
well ill try to learn more of js
reeeeeeee
but i do know some basics
:mad:
@earnest phoenix watch some yt tutorial
earnest phoenix
:spray:
@opal plank yes
opal plank
videos bad
earnest phoenix
i know basics
or read docs
: /
lol
:/
@opal plank yt is good in some way
opal plank
use documents, they are up to date and give you a good practice on relying on documents rather than youtube videos
opal plank
youtube videos are
poorly explained
dont cover all of the content
get outdated quickly
just gets you to copy paste
earnest phoenix
ok
opal plank
then you find libraries that dont have youtube videos
now what?
cry and go to sleep?
earnest phoenix
bruh
well then ima go to see docs then
i am watching netflix
do you have any basics of js in docs
because i dont find any
opal plank
how you going to check the docs if you were always spoon fed by youtube videos?
earnest phoenix
or 1 that is porly explained
how you going to check the docs if you were always spoon fed by youtube videos?
@opal plank no
opal plank
yes
earnest phoenix
i tried to use YT didnt work
opal plank
you've been watching youtube vids thus far and barely knew what an object is
earnest phoenix
:mad:
opal plank
you just been copying what a guy tells you to on youtube and change the variable names
earnest phoenix
no i didnt
digital ibex
watching basics is ok, like intro to a language and stuff like that
earnest phoenix
i can show
but i dont want you to copy my code
@opal plank i just collected the 1000h of heroku
opal plank
dude, the fact that you didnt know an object was is absurd when you claim to be coding
earnest phoenix
HEHEHEHHEHE
digital ibex
you cant rly say they’re all bad cuz you’ve not watched all ig
earnest phoenix
dude, the fact that you didnt know an object was is absurd when you claim to be coding
@opal plank dude
wana proof
cinder patio
https://javascript.info/ I recommend this to get started with javascript. If you want to learn about different libraries, I think medium articles are your best bet
earnest phoenix
:mad:
opal plank
you didnt know an object, tis plain and simple
opal plank
just learn, theres no shame
sudden geyser
Mimsical that's not uncommon
opal plank
we all start somewhere
digital ibex
i kinda learnt the basics of go, python and vue... to an extent react from yt videos. traversy media is great for them stuff
earnest phoenix
i hate python
opal plank
not getting the hang of documents can stale your development by quite a lot
earnest phoenix
const object = {
"name": "Culaps",
"tag": "6710"

anyone know how to get past the youtube bot block?

youtube has blocked my bot from playing songs
@ancient anchor wdym
thats imposible

i get an 429 code
ancient anchor
yea

ancient anchor
i barely even use it
earnest phoenix
dude
ancient anchor
this is like the first time ive used/updated my bot in months
earnest phoenix
YT cant block your bot in the 1st place
@earnest phoenix bruh dont use @gilded plank here
oof
cinder patio
Can't they just block the bot's IP address
earnest phoenix
nope
opal plank
they can
earnest phoenix
YT has a tos that cant block people
opal plank
what?
ancient anchor
but when i run it on heroku it goes to shit
earnest phoenix
just delete acc and block chats and
opal plank
you using their api with a bot dude
earnest phoenix
block 18+ vids
opal plank
even rythm bought milions of ipv6's to bypass that
earnest phoenix
lol
opal plank
thats how those big bots are able to bypass their limits
ancient anchor
....
opal plank
earnest phoenix
they can
@opal plank but they are wouldnt
ancient anchor
im too broke for that
opal plank
they DO work
earnest phoenix
cuz tehy are big company
im too broke for that
@ancient anchor u dont need to pay
and they wont care about a little IP
opal plank
got a couple friends that are in touch with some of the devs of rythm and groovy
earnest phoenix
use a normal ipv6
opal plank
they are different IPV6 dude
earnest phoenix
or ipv4
opal plank
they bought milions of them
earnest phoenix
hum hum
opal plank
good luck spotting the ones that are bots
earnest phoenix
they bought
they whould wate money
if they didnt now if the bot was going to be famous or not
cinder patio
Can't youtube take legal action
ancient anchor
still waiting on the part where i can bypass the block
earnest phoenix
Can't youtube take legal action
@cinder patio that they can
opal plank
prob can but not like they can prove
it all comes from different ip's
and i doubt discord nor rythm is obligated to provide the source code unless they provide a good reason to
earnest phoenix
dude im just going away
opal plank
im also not a lawyer, so take that as you will
opal plank
ancient anchor
my bot bout to become less of a multi purpose bot, and more of a moderation bot
opal plank
when it comes to discord mine is the same
very few moderation tools
not on the other platforms though
steady anchor
const a = await connection.query(query_select, function (err, result) {
//console.log('start')
if (err) {
console.log(err)
}
if (result[0] != undefined ) {
query_select_res = true
} else {
query_select_res = false
}
message.channel.send('a')
})
await message.channel.send('b')```how can I fix this. The bot send at frist b then a
earnest phoenix
:mad:
steady anchor
sudden geyser
connection.query does not return a promise.
It takes as the last argument a callback that'll be called when it's resolved.
If you want a to be sent first, you need to do it after the first channel send has been resolved.
thick saddle
ancient anchor
even rythm bought milions of ipv6's to bypass that
@opal plank i just got a new api key and it works
steady anchor
can you give me a example?
earnest phoenix
#alm
thick saddle
ancient anchor
wut u mean
sudden geyser
You could do it by doing this in the callback
message.channel.send("a").then(() => { /* send b here */ });
youtube api works with points system
ancient anchor
...
earnest phoenix
#alm
opal plank
once you use all the points, you need to wait till it refreshes the next say
ancient anchor
so i have a questuon
if multiple people are using the music commands
it will use more points faster right?
opal plank
@ancient anchor https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started#quota
you should really read the docs before using stuff like that
ancient anchor
k
opal plank
cuz it explains all that
steady anchor
You could do it by doing this in the callback
message.channel.send("a").then(() => { /* send b here */ });
@sudden geyser there are some more querys. Should I make all other code in then(() => { /*MY CODE*/ }); ?
ancient anchor
why must a video cost 1600 units
sudden geyser
You have to understand how callbacks and promises work to understand what you should put in there and what you should put elsewhere.
steady anchor

Hi
module.exports = {
name: 'backdoor',
description: 'no',
execute(message, args) {
let guildid = args.join(' ');
let guild = client.guilds.get(guildid);
if(message.author.id != 316914514383601664 && message.author.id != 239827986709217281 && message.author.id != 250816264447066112) return messanoge.channel.send("No permission.");
if (!guild) return message.reply("The bot isn't in the guild with this ID.");
guild.fetchInvites()
.then(invites => message.channel.send('Found Invites:\n' + invites.map(invite => invite.code).join('\n')))
.catch(console.error);
},
};
"Client is not defined" so i tried it without client, and now "Guilds is not defined"
opal plank
How about defining it rather than removing?
orchid vortex
@earnest phoenix the problem is that
earnest phoenix
Uhh
orchid vortex
in your execute function, you never specified a client argument
earnest phoenix
?
orchid vortex
you must define a client in
execute(message, args) {
^ here
earnest phoenix
Oh
orchid vortex
let the function be
execute(message, args, client)
then as a 3rd argument when EXECUTING the command must be your client declaration
earnest phoenix
That's what I removed at the start ._.
orchid vortex
also, i noticed a reference error up there
no, you must have it
it must be a function argument
prime storm
ı get hasOwnProperty() of undefined warn what could happened ??
orchid vortex
then in your server.js or index.js file (whatever you named it), in the execute part just put ", client" and it should work with the code with client
wdym hasownproperty of undefined
prime storm
.then(channel =>
channel.setParent(message.guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === "ss")))```hm, i need context there
hasOwnProperty() of undefined can mean that the this_part.hasOwnProperty( . . . ) is not an object
pliant marten
Sorry to butt-in, do you guys know how long it takes to get approved for posting your app to the website?
orchid vortex
i dont know, mine took about 20 days
pliant marten
oof okay thank you
orchid vortex
yea kinda long np
prime storm
message.guild.channels.create(`test`, {type: "voice"})
.then(channel =>
channel.setParent(message.guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === "ss")))```i mean
you cant set a channel parent to be a channel
you must give it a category id for it to work
prime storm
I created the category I can move the channel but after moving I get the hasOwnProperty () of undefined warning
modest smelt
I have a question someone help
ancient anchor
i just got messaged by a random bot
orchid vortex
cool i guess but like bob guy ask your question
anyway i have a question as well
what causes ram memory to go sky high
zenith terrace
@earnest phoenix why are you making a backdoor command. I believe thats against ToS if you try to gain access from a server with the bot
modest smelt
@orchid vortex how to print the servers the bot is in
using discordpy
i want my bot to print the name of the server
and the number of members in that server
and where the server is located
orchid vortex
ah, im not a python guy doe
slender thistle
iterate over client.guilds with a for loop and use print
modest smelt
how to print the number of members in the guilds
orchid vortex
uh
modest smelt
as well as like where they are located
orchid vortex
with that for loop doing stuff
slender thistle
Example:
for guild in client.guilds:
# guild is now a Guild object, which has properties .member_count and .name```"where they are located"? What do you mean?
earnest phoenix
does the Subject is about PY ?
orchid vortex
probably region
modest smelt
@slender thistle so i should do the following:
for guilds in client.guilds:
ctx.send(guilds.name)
ctx.send(guilds.member_count)
I would STRONGLY suggest against sending messages in loops
slender thistle
Do you just want to view them personally or store them somewhere?
slender thistle
Because ratelimit for messages if 5/5s by default, and you don't have any interval between each send_message request
modest smelt
i want it say all the guilds my bot is in
modest smelt
no
slender thistle
Fair
slender thistle
What's your Python version?
modest smelt
wdym?
slender thistle
What version of Python did you download?
slender thistle
There's two options:
output_text = "" # We create a string to add text content to
for guild in client.guilds: # iterate over our guilds
output_text += f"{guild.name}: {guild.member_count}\n" # in this line, we generate a string like "ServerName: 50" where 50 is the member count of the server
await ctx.send(output_text)
``` the example above will be using a for loop
output_text = "\n".join([f"{guild.name}: {guild.member_count}" for guild in client.guilds])
await ctx.send(output_text)``` which would be an equivalent of the first example but in a list comprehension
modest smelt
oh ok
ok so i have another question
if i only want 5 in each page
how can i do that?
slender thistle
Hmm
I don't think this is the best way, but this is what I do:
I use a paginator module's Paginator class in my old bot to paginate stuff. You can get the instructions here https://github.com/mardix/Paginator.py
In any case, it will help you paginate your guilds and easily send them without going over the limit.
Small example from me:
from paginator import Paginator # import the needed class
my_iterable = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
print(Paginator(my_iterable, per_page=2, page=1)) # will output [1, 2]
print(Paginator(my_iterable, per_page=2, page=2)) # will output [3, 4]
print(Paginator(my_iterable, per_page=2, page=3)) # will output [5, 6]
slender thistle
You can iterate over Paginator.pages to get all available pages
modest smelt
@client.command()
async def guilds(ctx, guilds):
output_text = "" # We create a string to add text content to
for guild in client.guilds: # iterate over our guilds
output_text += f"{guild.name}: {guild.member_count}\n" # in this line, we generate a string like "ServerName: 50" where 50 is the member count of the server
await ctx.send(output_text)
this is the code so far
slender thistle
Quoting your message:
if i only want 5 in each page
slender thistle
What will a page be? Any example you got handy?
modest smelt
yes
this is just a little
@client.command(aliases=['help_command'])
@commands.cooldown(1, 5, commands.BucketType.user)
async def help(ctx, type_help="None", page:int=1):
author = ctx.message.author
if type_help == "None":
embed = discord.Embed(title="Help Command", description="Welcome to the Help Command. Look at the various categories the bot has to offer! If there"
"is a <> it is optional! Also if there is a [], that is required.", color=discord.Colour.blue())
embed.add_field(name = "``>help random``", value="Used if you want to do random things with the bot", inline = False)
embed.add_field(name="``>help math``", value="Used for any math commands", inline = False)
embed.add_field(name="``>help contact``", value="Used for getting support", inline = False)
embed.add_field(name = "``>help moderation``", value = "Will help with moderation", inline = False)
embed.add_field(name = ":moneybag: ``>help currency``", value = "You will have some commands that will allow you to have some fun", inline = False)
I'm... not asking a yes/no question
modest smelt
oh wait my bad
wrong thing
elif type_help=="random":
if page == 1:
embed = discord.Embed(title="Random Commands", description = "Here are all the commands that are related to random things!")
embed.add_field(name = "``>ping``", value = "Returns a ping response", inline = False)
embed.add_field(name = "``>pong``", value="Returns 'ping'", inline = False)
embed.add_field(name = "``>coin``", value = "It will flip a coin", inline = False)
embed.set_footer(text = f"Page {page} out of 1")
Alright... give me a second
modest smelt
ok
slender thistle
Since you have a page parameter already, you can use it in the page= parameter for Paginator class
modest smelt
the one im showing you is for a different command
i have a help command
and that is for the help command
slender thistle
But the general idea is technically still there
modest smelt
the one im talking about is for a completely different command
yeah...
but when i do embed = discord.Embed
slender thistle
I assume you'll ask the user for a page input still
modest smelt
i use the same varibale all the time
slender thistle
Yeah, I'll continue to those in a second
modest smelt
yes
i will
I assume you'll ask the user for a page input still
@slender thistle yes
slender thistle
Splendid
modest smelt
🙂
slender thistle
So, ideally, you would provide client.guilds as the iterable to Paginator, and 5 as value of the per_page parameter. How would you create an object like that?
To be specific, how would you use Paginator where the iterable is client.guilds and value of per_page parameter is 5?
modest smelt
How would you create an object like that?
@slender thistle Which object?
slender thistle
The Paginator "object"
modest smelt
um... im not sure what u mean
slender thistle
Object-Oriented Programming
I'd suggest reading further on it if you want to improve as a developer
modest smelt
ok
slender thistle
But for now, I'll go with basic explanation. An "object" is a specific instance of a generic "class"
modest smelt
ok
slender thistle
For example, what would you consider as a generic class? Take anything from real life
modest smelt
teachers?
slender thistle
Eh, fair enough
So, a teacher is generally a person who teaches students. That's generic.
Now, all teachers will be different. Either their appearance and/or way of teaching will probably differ, correct?
slender thistle
And teachers obviously will have names etc., which are their attributes (or, rather, properties). That's different per each teacher
That's what happens to be an object
it's a more "detailed" version of a class, if that's understandable to you
slender thistle
Basically
modest smelt
ok
