development

[forest drift]

anyone have a better command system than

const args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split(/ +/);
    const command = args.shift().toLowerCase();

? I only realised now that if my prefix was dbr!, then even aaaa would register...

Or is the old

if(message.content.startsWith(prefix + "(command)")){}

still one of the best?

[frail ocean]

Command handlers are the best...

Rather than having one long file.

[real nacelle]

Oh Yeah, I am invisible. ** @real nacelle LEAVES THE CHAT**

[frail ocean]

@real nacelle Only talk in here if you need development help, please.

[real nacelle]

No one is responding my call

for help

[frail ocean]

You aren't even asking a question.

You are saying I am invisible.

[real nacelle]

I am asking if somebody knows coding a discord bot with python

[forest drift]

Rather than having one long file.
@frail ocean its only a 5 command bot, thats why im trying to find a better command system

[real nacelle]

I got no answers

[frail ocean]

@frail ocean its only a 5 command bot, thats why im trying to find a better command system
@forest drift Still, a command handler is best.

[forest drift]

mkay

[frail ocean]

Even for a 1 command bot, command handler's are how you should do it.

Easier to read, less nesting overall.

[real nacelle]

see again, no response. So I am leaving.

[forest drift]

I tried command handlers but my knowledge of code isnt good enough for it yet

[earnest phoenix]

see again, no response. So I am leaving.
@real nacelle If you got no response means no one here uses python 👀

[frail ocean]

I tried command handlers but my knowledge of code isnt good enough for it yet
@forest drift I can't recommend command handlers enough, easier for debugging, easier for readability and what is considered the "standard" - your code also looks more professional.

[real nacelle]

That's why I am leaving

[frail ocean]

@real nacelle Part of the reason I haven't responded is since you haven't bothered to do work yourself. There are MANY tutorials out there, search on google first.

[forest drift]

ok...

[frail ocean]

We aren't here to code it for you, you need to do research as well.

[real nacelle]

@real nacelle Part of the reason I haven't responded is since you haven't bothered to do work yourself. There are MANY tutorials out there, search on google first.
@frail ocean ur mod, u should read the pin comments of this channel

Do not assume people haven't already Googled their problem. If they're asking here, they've likely already Googled their problem. Telling someone "google it" is run and unhelpful.

this is written

read in the pin comments

[frail ocean]

How come once I search how to code a discord bot in python, many many results walking you through it show up?

[real nacelle]

but they aren't answering my question

ur not a good helper or mod

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[cinder patio]

You haven't asked any specific questions. You shouldn't ask to ask, just post your problem

[real nacelle]

😡

[frail ocean]

Your question is somebody knows coding a discord bot with python - so you gotta give more information buddy if you want help.

[real nacelle]

bro, I can't get help from a guy who doesn't know python

You leave it

You'll say anything to defend yourself.

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[opal plank]

the balls of some people....

[frail ocean]

Lol - where have I said I don't know python.

my brain hurts

[real nacelle]

So, ur not responding

[frail ocean]

I'll just go and review more bots I guess.

[real nacelle]

Yeah, cuz you don't know helping anyways.

[frail ocean]

I'll say this once more, no one is responding as you didn't ask a question. Ask a question and people will respond. @real nacelle

[quartz kindle]

^

[real nacelle]

leave it

You'll say anything to defend yourself.
read this again

[quartz kindle]

right back at you

[frail ocean]

I'm being really patient with you here, if you don't want help I'll just continue reviewing bots.

[real nacelle]

Yeah sure, go on.

There're more members that can help.

Ig.

[opal plank]

first: this is a community channel, no one is in any obligation to help you.
second, the pins clearly state to ask your question -asktoask. State your problem and if someone knwos they'll answer
third. at this point you just blindly lashing out at a mod for pointing you out
fourth. none of what TheReal said is wrong at this point

[quartz kindle]

didnt you say you were leaving because there wasnt anyone responding? then leave lol

[frail ocean]

-ask2ask

[gilded plank]

Don't ask to ask.
Just ask your question, it wastes time if you say "i need help" or "can someone help me?" instead of just saying what the problem is. Save your time and other people's time and just ask the question.

Please read https://dontasktoask.com/ for an explanation on why this is an issue.

[real nacelle]

@opal plank I asked, no one replied I thought no one know, so i left the chat. Now what's bad here?

[opal plank]

nothing, just leave without causing drama, come back later if someone who knows python know your answer

[quartz kindle]

90% of people who know X will never reply to the question "does someone here know X?"

[earnest phoenix]

Well the truth is, somebody knows coding a discord bot with python isn't a question

example

I ask

How to make my bot idle?

[real nacelle]

90% of people who know X will never reply to the question "does someone here know X?"
@quartz kindle i asked someone knows python, that doesn't mean. I need to ask a question

[opal plank]

dont ask if someone knows something

[frail ocean]

More information specific to the issue you have had @real nacelle :

-bigask2ask

[gilded plank]

Every now and then, someone pops in and says something in the lines of:

Foobar123:Any Java experts around?
This is bad form, for several reasons. What the person is actually asking here is,

Foobar123:Any Java experts around who are willing to commit into looking into my problem, whatever that may turn out to be, even if it's not actually related to Java or if someone who doesn't know anything about Java could actually answer my question?
There are plenty of reasons why people who DO have the knowledge would not admit to it. By asking, you're asking for more than what you think you're asking.

You're asking people to take responsibility. You're questioning people's confidence in their abilities. You're also unnecessarily walling other people out. We often answer questions related to languages or libraries that we have never used, because the answers are generally common sense.

Alternatively, it can be seen as..

Foobar123:I have a question about Java but I'm too lazy to actually formalize it in words unless there's someone on the channel who might be able to answer it
..which is just lazy. If you're not willing to do the work to solve your problem, why should we?

The solution is not to ask to ask, but just to ask. Someone who is idling on the channel and only every now and then glances what's going on is unlikely to answer to your "asking to ask" question, but your actual problem description may pique their interest and get them to answer.

So, to summarize, don't ask "Any Java experts around?", but rather ask "How do I do [problem] with Java and [other relevant info]?"

[opal plank]

just ask your question

[faint prism]

@real nacelle How do I represent a negative number in binary?

[earnest phoenix]

He asks me and boom

[quartz kindle]

so you actually dont have a question? you just want to know if someone else knows python?

[opal plank]

^^

[pale vessel]

gosh that embed

[real nacelle]

i need to ask a question but if no one knows python here, how can they help me?

anyways, leave this drama

[opal plank]

[real nacelle]

It will nvr end

[glacial sun]

How do i make a code where people who voted will get bot currency?

[real nacelle]

imma just ask ma question

[opal plank]

i'll take the bullet

[quartz kindle]

many programming problems are universal. a good programmer can solve problems without knowing the language

[twilit rapids]

Did you not even read the embeds that TheReal send?

[frail ocean]

People do know python here, we are happy to help. We need to know the specific issue to help however.

don't ask "Any Java experts around?", but rather ask "How do I do [problem] with Java and [other relevant info]?"

[opal plank]

@real nacelle i know python

whats your question?

i'll take the bullet

[earnest phoenix]

python is same as everything you just need a launguage, that's not the point of your question.

[real nacelle]

can u tell how to put the outcome in the embeds, cuz it is causing errors if I do normally

[opal plank]

there we go

[quartz kindle]

finally

[opal plank]

now people know what you needed help with

[faint prism]

Nvm the 1st bit in the byte being 1 makes it negative

[opal plank]

fyi i dont know python

thats all you needed to ask

[real nacelle]

-_-;

[fringe axle]

How can I get the authors role color? (discord.js v12)

[opal plank]

can u tell how to put the outcome in the embeds, cuz it is causing errors if I do normally

just ask this next time

[real nacelle]

ok

[opal plank]

replace 'u' with 'someone'

[real nacelle]

can someone tell how to put the outcome in the embeds, cuz it is causing errors if I do normally

[opal plank]

that's it

👏

[pale vessel]

How can I get the authors role color? (discord.js v12)
@fringe axle their display name color you mean?

[opal plank]

there we go

[warm marsh]

Show code?

[fringe axle]

@fringe axle their display name color you mean?
@pale vessel they're highest role color.

[pale vessel]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildMember?scrollTo=displayHexColor

[fringe axle]

Thanks

[pale vessel]

actually never mind

the highest role color can be different than the display name color

[quartz kindle]

@real nacelle show your code, and the errors it causes

[faint prism]

can someone tell how to put the outcome in the embeds, cuz it is causing errors if I do normally
@real nacelle post error

[cobalt furnace]

#development message

[real nacelle]

ok

the errors aren't the system errors

I can't figure the way

[pale vessel]

use member.roles.highest.hexColor @fringe axle

[real nacelle]

to do it

Wait lsten

i want to ask

[quartz jewel]

Salt.

[real nacelle]

how to embed a code?

[fringe axle]

use member.roles.highest.hexColor @fringe axle
@pale vessel thanks

[pale vessel]

how to embed a code or how to code an embed

[warm marsh]

Elucidate?

[faint prism]

A code

[real nacelle]

how to embed a code or how to code an embed
@pale vessel the thing I asked is correct

[quartz kindle]

this is the signature of TextChannel.send() in discord.py: await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, file=None, files=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None)

[real nacelle]

Ig

[quartz kindle]

as you can see, there is an embed parameter

[real nacelle]

but

lord

can I send my code here?

[quartz kindle]

yes

please do

[fringe axle]

use member.roles.highest.hexColor @fringe axle
@pale vessel but if they have no role?

[real nacelle]

OK

[pale vessel]

@fringe axle they always have at least one role

which is @everyone

[fringe axle]

See above

[pale vessel]

you might have used a user instead of a member

[quartz jewel]

@pale vessel Reported.

[pale vessel]

what

[real nacelle]

my primare coed

if message.content == 'Say LOL':
myplace_channel = client.get_channel(740881166906687549)
await myplace_channel.send('LOL')

    #THIS IS CONTENT BUT DON'T WRITE ANYTHING UNDER IT OR TOUCH THIS

async def bal(self, ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(title = "EMBED", description = "Description", color = discord.Colour.blue())
    embed.add_field(name = "EMBED GOOD", value = "LALALALA", inline = False)
    await ctx.send(embed = embed)

[warm marsh]

Code blocks?

```lang
code here
```

[real nacelle]

python

[warm marsh]

I know what language I meant for formatting in Discord.

[real nacelle]

Ok

[warm marsh]

print(True)

[real nacelle]

Sry

how do u type these kind of messages?

[frail ocean]

```language
CODE HERE
```

[quartz kindle]

he just showed you

[faint prism]

lol

[sudden geyser]

so close

[warm marsh]

Make sure there isn't a space after the language name and that you only have three back ticks

[quartz kindle]

you're using 4 ticks instead of 3

[warm marsh]

Auger python is supported

[fringe axle]

Working, thanks @pale vessel.

[real nacelle]

if message.content == 'Say LOL':
        myplace_channel = client.get_channel(740881166906687549)

        #THIS IS CONTENT BUT DON'T WRITE ANYTHING UNDER IT OR TOUCH THIS

    async def bal(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(title = "EMBED", description = "Description", color = discord.Colour.blue())
        embed.add_field(name = "EMBED GOOD", value = "LALALALA", inline = False)
        await ctx.send(embed = embed)

yay

[quartz kindle]

there you go

[real nacelle]

Lmao

[quartz kindle]

now, you want it to say LOL in an embed?

[real nacelle]

yes

[quartz kindle]

you dont need the bal function

[real nacelle]

So do I have to write it in the description?

[quartz kindle]

just put the embed code directly in there

[quartz jewel]

Finally reads with his eyes.

[real nacelle]

@quartz kindle needs to define ctx

[warm marsh]

I think the bal method is incorrectly copied as it looks to be part of a class.

[quartz kindle]

you dont need to define ctx, you should be able to use message.channel.send()

[violet haven]

where can i get all discord flags in unicode version?

[warm marsh]

Country flags?

[violet haven]

badges

hypesquad etc

[faint prism]

:flag_ac: = 🇦🇨
@violet haven

[quartz kindle]

there is no unicode for them

[violet haven]

ah

[quartz kindle]

they are custom images created by discord

unicode is only available for universal symbols and glyphs

[violet haven]

so how do i show them?

[faint prism]

@violet haven see https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/748180925409525793

[quartz kindle]

you need to save them as images, and upload them to your server as custom emojis

hes talking about user flags, not country flags

[violet haven]

:HOUSE_BALANCE:

[real nacelle]

it was close but not exact.

[faint prism]

gotcha

[violet haven]

no like this

[real nacelle]

the code isn't coming in the embed

[quartz kindle]

whats your current code?

[earnest phoenix]

Um

[warm marsh]

If it's what you sent prior. It's due to a couple of reasons.

[real nacelle]

whats your current code?
@quartz kindle to get the bot say LOL

[warm marsh]

😂

[earnest phoenix]

can someone give me this emojis code to put it on a embed

emoji :

escape it

\

[real nacelle]

[quartz kindle]

@real nacelle i mean show your current code

[real nacelle]

Ok

[earnest phoenix]

escaping doesn't work on mobile

i'm on mobile too so uh i can't help

[real nacelle]

if message.content == 'Say LOL':
        myplace_channel = client.get_channel(740881166906687549)
        await myplace_channel.send('LOL')

        #THIS IS CONTENT BUT DON'T WRITE ANYTHING UNDER IT OR TOUCH THIS

        embed = discord.Embed(title = "EMBED", description = "Description", color = discord.Colour.blue())
        embed.add_field(name = "EMBED GOOD", value = "LALALALA", inline = False)
        await message.channel.send(embed = embed)

[quartz kindle]

and what happens when you use the command?

[real nacelle]

the lolthing is out of embed

and the description and everything is in the embed

[quartz kindle]

you're sending the LOL part in a different message to a different channel

[quartz jewel]

Best command handler of 2020 is that above.

[opal plank]

nothing better than a switch case as a handler

[real nacelle]

you're sending the LOL part in a different message to a different channel
@quartz kindle how

[earnest phoenix]

ok so, can someone help me change the server page' background color in top.gg?
never tried this so have no idea how to do this 😂

[quartz kindle]

you're getting a specific channel by ID, and sending LOL to it, independently from the embed

[faint prism]

ok so, can someone help me change the server page' background color in top.gg?
never tried this so have no idea how to do this 😂
@earnest phoenix https://w3schools.com has a great tutorial on that in CSS

[earnest phoenix]

hmm

[pale vessel]

LOL

[quartz jewel]

@opal plank Eww.

[opal plank]

i'll go for if else if chains if you complain

[real nacelle]

you're getting a specific channel by ID, and sending LOL to it, independently from the embed
@quartz kindle so should I remove the channel id?

[quartz kindle]

if you dont want to send it separately, delete both lines

[faint prism]

@opal plank Having logic with the handler is a bad idea in general. If/else or switch/case is mostly subjective

[quartz kindle]

both myplace lines

[pale vessel]

is this a thing

[warm marsh]

In Python.

[pale vessel]

yes

they have ctx and message?

[warm marsh]

Idk, we'd require to see more code.

Or are you asking in general?

[pale vessel]

any pythoners in chat

lul

[quartz jewel]

@opal plank I don't use if statements or switch for command handler.

[polar thunder]

just do msg.channel.send(embed), that's what I always do

[opal plank]

@faint prism indeed, we, true cultured people, use one command per event, then repeat the events

client.on(message => if(message.content.startsWith(command a)) { /*du stuffz*/});
client.on(message => if(message.content.startsWith(command b)) { /*du stuffz b */});
client.on(message => if(message.content.startsWith(command c)) { /*du stuffz c*/});

[quartz kindle]

Lol

[faint prism]

having multiple handlers on message event

[opal plank]

the ultimate way to have multiple commands

[pale vessel]

discordbotlist/luca

[earnest phoenix]

hi guys

[faint prism]

I feel like that wouldn't even work

[opal plank]

worst part, it does

[faint prism]

Can you define client.on(message => multiple times?

[opal plank]

well, gotta warp shit in parenthesis n such

bubt it work

[pale vessel]

you can

[faint prism]

wtf...

[opal plank]

you can, its an event listener

[polar thunder]

yes but why

[faint prism]

well yeah

but it's listening for the same event 3 times

[opal plank]

i wonder if Ts would screech at me for doing that

holdup

[quartz kindle]

client.on("message", message => { if(message.content.startsWith(command 1) && client.commands1.has(command 1)) { run command 1 from commands 1 } });
client.on("message", message => { if(message.content.startsWith(command 2) && client.commands2.has(command 2)) { run command 2 from commands 2 } });
client.on("message", message => { if(message.content.startsWith(command 3) && client.commands3.has(command 3)) { run command 3 from commands 3 } });

[sudden geyser]

what is this nightmare fuel

[earnest phoenix]

you forgot to check if message is defined

[faint prism]

I just use a delegate

welcome back from the mute @earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

:kappa:

Every time I put on the Activity, like it shows, but few minutes its disappearing

[real nacelle]

@quartz kindle this is what, the result is

[opal plank]

yikes, ts allows it

[quartz kindle]

how about this ```js
for(command of client.commands) {
client.on("message", msg => {
if(msg.content.startsWith(command)) { run command }
})
}

[opal plank]

i mean i guess i can see some cases where you'd be runnng shit around

[earnest phoenix]

That's my code

client.on("ready", () => {
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(`PeroBot - Server`);
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(
    `ON ${client.guilds.size} Servers '     PeroBot ' `
  );
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
  client.user.setGame(`Hi`);
  client.user.setStatus("idle");
});```

[faint prism]

how about this ```js
for(command of client.commands) {
client.on("message", msg => {
if(msg.content.startsWith(command)) { run command }
})
}

@quartz kindle NO

[quartz kindle]

:^)

[opal plank]

lets make it worse

[faint prism]

I definitly don't think the event would even fire correctly

It might work {1/TotalCommands}% of the time

lol

[real nacelle]

@quartz kindle can you help more?

that I sent u

[earnest phoenix]

get the EventEmitter and manually fire the message event :wesmart:

[real nacelle]

the pic

[quartz kindle]

i told you to remove the mychannel lines

did you remove them?

[real nacelle]

i did it

Removed it

[quartz kindle]

so now just edit the embed

[real nacelle]

how

[quartz kindle]

set the title and description to what you want it to be

[real nacelle]

oh

[opal plank]

commands.forEach({client.on("message", async (msg) => {await run(command).then(console.log('no error').catch((e) => {if (e) return e}))}})```

[real nacelle]

but it is what I want to be

[pale vessel]

what the fuck

[real nacelle]

tim

[quartz kindle]

lmao

if its already what you want it to be then its done lol

[real nacelle]

but the code

[opal plank]

the stakes are high nowadays for stars eh?

[faint prism]

commands.forEach({client.on("message", async (msg) => {await run(command).then(console.log('no error').catch((e) => {if (e) return e}))}})```

@opal plank Remind me of this
||```cs
using System ;
namespace IsThisPython {
public interface IA {

[quartz kindle]

jesus

fucking

christ

[opal plank]

kill it

before it reproduces

[faint prism]

It's valid C# since it's whitecase-insensative

[earnest phoenix]

@faint prism did you see what c#9 brings us

[real nacelle]

?????????????????

[quartz kindle]

@real nacelle you said its already the way you want it to be, so then whats wrong?

[faint prism]

WOAHHH

[real nacelle]

the code isn't in my way

the title nd description is good

do I have to paste my code there?

[quartz kindle]

if you want me to understand whats wrong with it, yes

[faint prism]

Now, beginners can ignore class structure and main functions 😄 ||😥||

[earnest phoenix]

lient.on("ready", () => {
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(`PeroBot - Server`);
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(
    `ON ${client.guilds.size} Servers '     PeroBot ' `
  );
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
  client.user.setGame(`-help`);
  client.user.setStatus("online");
});

c#9 is a mess

Is there something wrong with this code

[quartz kindle]

meanwhile js does this since 30 years ago

[opal plank]

i thought shit like that was the whole prupose of d.js

[earnest phoenix]

it kind of turns c# into a semi-functional language

[faint prism]

lient.on

[quartz kindle]

lient

lmao

[earnest phoenix]

ooof

we got the not operator which is literally fancy !

[opal plank]

imagine using newLines in console log

[quartz jewel]

@faint prism Or people could just avoid C# and use something worth using.

[earnest phoenix]

c# is worth using lmfao??

[faint prism]

@faint prism Or people could just avoid C# and use something worth using.
@quartz jewel That opinion sucks

[restive furnace]

true != false, cry u mean this?

[earnest phoenix]

client.on("ready", () => {
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(`PeroBot - Server`);
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(
    `ON ${client.guilds.size} Servers '     PeroBot ' `
  );
  console.log(`----------------`);
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
  client.user.setGame(`-help`);
  client.user.setStatus("online");
});

and now?

[faint prism]

Fortune 500 companies use dotnet all the time

[opal plank]

how about we merge those logs?

[earnest phoenix]

idk why its not working

[faint prism]

true != false, cry u mean this?
@restive furnace true not = false I think is what he means??

[quartz kindle]

being rich !== having good code

[quartz jewel]

@earnest phoenix C# is horrible to use just like JS.

[earnest phoenix]

uh

[faint prism]

No it isnt

[earnest phoenix]

no?

where's that coming from

[opal plank]

being rich === pay someone for good code

[earnest phoenix]

oh nice

how about we merge those logs?
@opal plank k I did

[restive furnace]

C# is more hardware level

[earnest phoenix]

client.on("ready", () => {
  client.user.setGame(`-help`);
  client.user.setStatus("online");
});

now??

[quartz kindle]

you cant be rich if you pay for good code, you are rich because you underpay and get bad code

[faint prism]

C# is more hardware level
@restive furnace false you're thinking of C++

[opal plank]

not quite what i meant

[earnest phoenix]

still not working

damn

asp.net core is one of the most performant webservers out there (c#)
.net core technologies (now just .net) revolutionized the usage of c#

[restive furnace]

@restive furnace false you're thinking of C++
@faint prism no, note that more.

[quartz kindle]

ms fanboys smh

[restive furnace]

is .NET 5.0 out?

[quartz jewel]

@earnest phoenix It's coming from me because I hatr both languages.

[faint prism]

ASP.NET Core Runtime 5.0.0-preview.7 I think is

[real nacelle]

my output isn't in the embeds

[earnest phoenix]

can someone tell me why this doesn't work

[real nacelle]

Idk y

[earnest phoenix]

yes but that's subjective, i need objective facts on why c# sucks

(which it doesn't)

[quartz kindle]

@real nacelle you still didnt show your code

[real nacelle]

the same i showed

that pic

[earnest phoenix]

Tim

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix setGame doesnt exist anymore, and setStatus("online") is the default anyway so it doesnt really do anything

[earnest phoenix]

oh

k

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix and WHY THE HELL IS YOUR FILE 6k LINES LONG

[earnest phoenix]

Eh?

It's

server.js

[ebon kelp]

[frail ocean]

Are you using a command handler?

if not, thats why then

[quartz kindle]

lmfao

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

[opal plank]

just remember that god doesnt forgive those major sins

6k lines dude

[quartz jewel]

@faint prism 🤢

[opal plank]

thats a nightmare to edit

[quartz kindle]

@real nacelle so you didnt remove the myplace lines????

[earnest phoenix]

yeah ik

[ebon kelp]

[quartz kindle]

and you didnt edit the embed

🤦‍♂️

[real nacelle]

@real nacelle so you didnt remove the myplace lines????
@quartz kindle i sent the putcome by mistake

@quartz kindle

[quartz kindle]

you're still sending LOL separately

delete it

[real nacelle]

then where to post it?

[quartz kindle]

in the embed

[real nacelle]

or write

[quartz kindle]

edit your title and description

[real nacelle]

embed which place?

description/

[quartz kindle]

wherever you want

[real nacelle]

Oh

[pine aspen]

Hey, I've been working on a dashboard. I've been trying to get the guilds.join scope to work.

I keep getting this error.

{ message: '401: Unauthorized', code: 0 }

Code

axios.put(`https://discordapp.com/api/guilds/747143011695329451/members/${id}`, {
            headers: {
                "Authorization": `Bot ${config.secret.token}`,
                "Content-Type": "application/json"
            },
            data: { access_token: accessToken }
        }).then(res => console.log(res)).catch(err => console.log(err));

I'm using the passport-discord package. When I

console.log(accessToken)

I get a token.

[opal plank]

likely no access to that guild

[earnest phoenix]

401 is wrong token

[pine aspen]

The bot's in there with admin perms.

[opal plank]

isnt it unauthorizeD?

[earnest phoenix]

yes

[pine aspen]

Unauthorized

[earnest phoenix]

wrong token

[pine aspen]

Yes.

[earnest phoenix]

401 = wrong token
403 = missing perms

[pine aspen]

Hmm, how could I get the correct token?

[opal plank]

oh im thinking about twitch api

my bad

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix setGame doesnt exist anymore, and setStatus("online") is the default anyway so it doesnt really do anything
@quartz kindle I mean It works but like a while ago it goes 👀

have you checked whether your bot token is correct

[pine aspen]

I'll check it now.

not an error, really

[real nacelle]

@quartz kindle is it ok?

[pale vessel]

define it

[opal plank]

yup, i mistook the api's

[earnest phoenix]

@pale vessel how?!

[restive furnace]

uhh @real nacelle

[opal plank]

imagine mistaking api code status

[sudden geyser]

What can I do to fix that error?
@earnest phoenix define it or look for what it should be called

[real nacelle]

uhh
@restive furnace ??

[restive furnace]

ive seen this before

[earnest phoenix]

@sudden geyser how is it supposed to be called?

[restive furnace]

if in embed

[pine aspen]

@earnest phoenix, the bot token is correct.

[sudden geyser]

It's your code. We don't know what it is

[quartz kindle]

@real nacelle thats so so so wrong i dont even know

[real nacelle]

what

[quartz kindle]

and i dont even use python

[real nacelle]

-_-,

[earnest phoenix]

are you sure you're using the token and not the secret

[pine aspen]

100% sure.

[earnest phoenix]

hm

[real nacelle]

token is in the bot section

not in the home

what you had before was correct, all you needed to do was edit the content of the embed, like change the description to "LOL"

nothing else

idk where you got that weird ideas

[pine aspen]

Might be the way I'm making the request.

[earnest phoenix]

it's a PUT request, yeah?

[faint prism]

C# is great. I love being abstract

[earnest phoenix]

everything seems correct there

[quartz jewel]

C# is shit.

[violet haven]

l$help

[quartz jewel]

C and C++ > C#.

[faint prism]

I'd argue that those aren't very secure in comparison

However, the speed I've heard is better

[violet haven]

shit sry

[quartz jewel]

@faint prism They're just fine compared to dogshit C#.

[faint prism]

What is this pent up resentment against C#?

My entire company uses C# so some degree on their projects

And it's fortune 500

[earnest phoenix]

Why can't I download quick.db?

@pine aspen you've got the wrong token for your bot token, it works for me (ignore the invalid oauth token)

invalid oauth token returns 403 as the status code

[pine aspen]

Hmm.

[earnest phoenix]

@quartz kindle why I can't download quick.db?

[pine aspen]

Maybe if I use JSON.stringify()?

[earnest phoenix]

try to

[pine aspen]

It worked.

Ty

[real nacelle]

hey my bot is spamming embeds.

[faint prism]

lol

[restive furnace]

@quartz jewel C# has it uses.

[faint prism]

Like ASP.NET APIs, Xamarin Apps, Console applications, Windows forms applications, etc

[earnest phoenix]

Why can't I download quick.db? @quartz kindle

[quartz jewel]

@restive furnace I'd rather use assembly over C# or JS.

[restive furnace]

assembly, lmao

[earnest phoenix]

.net 5/.net 6 is going to be amazing

they're merging everything into one single deving platform

[restive furnace]

asm isnt worth of using

[faint prism]

^ especially when high-level languages are available. You're wasting time in the SDLC

[earnest phoenix]

we were supposed to get java two-way interop in .net 5 but it got delayed for .net 6/.net 7 release :(

which means 2022

[faint prism]

we were supposed to get java two-way interop in .net 5 but it got delayed for .net 6/.net 7 release :(
@earnest phoenix Hype for that. That'll mean better android app dev

[restive furnace]

i heard in .net 5 u can compete with c++'s speeds

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

the JIT compiler is blazing fast

[quartz jewel]

@faint prism C# is waste of time as well.

[faint prism]

Just opinions. No meaningful information is conveyed by that ^

[earnest phoenix]

Why can't I download quick.db?

i dont know, why can't you?

you need to provide more context with your question

[restive furnace]

@quartz jewel if you really want to hear which is waste of time, its asm. since most compilers do better than human handwriting directly to asm.

[faint prism]

^ this, they apply better algorithms and implementations (usually)

[earnest phoenix]

i want to see exactly why c# sucks in your opinion

That is the error

[eternal osprey]

hey guys

just a question

[earnest phoenix]

just an answer

[eternal osprey]

what is the difference between numphy and numpy

[faint prism]

One has a typo

[eternal osprey]

this is my requirements.txt

dang frank castle in the building

[faint prism]

never heard of numphy

[slender thistle]

I'd Google it for you if my browser didn't decide to have an update

[eternal osprey]

billy better be outta ehre

shivaco

i did

and couldn't find it

so i thought that asking here would be a great idea

[slender thistle]

Lazy bum, search better

[eternal osprey]

yeah that's fun

[faint prism]

lol

[slender thistle]

https://pypi.org/project/numphy/

[eternal osprey]

i am literally at page 7 of google

[restive furnace]

@quartz jewel also rule 4, didnt notice. (4c)

[slender thistle]

why the fuck do you need physics objects

[quartz jewel]

@restive furnace Yes asm is waste of time but would rather waste my time using it over C#.

[faint prism]

again, just hate against a language for no reason ^

[restive furnace]

just tell us why?

[slender thistle]

Rule 4 @quartz jewel, let's not go that way

If you are going to shit on X, at least don't be a dick about it

[faint prism]

Especially w/o reason

[earnest phoenix]

@quartz jewel all i see is shit talk on c#, i never saw why and the facts to back it up lol

[eternal osprey]

what is x

[earnest phoenix]

a mathematician's nightmare

[eternal osprey]

yeah i ma head pit

out

[quartz jewel]

@earnest phoenix I hate it's syntax and having to import from C++ to do something simple like write to memory.

@slender thistle Ban me then, problem solved.

[earnest phoenix]

you can write to memory natively in c# lol

[eternal osprey]

guys why do i get the error, modulenotfounderror : no module named six

[earnest phoenix]

you're probably thinking of getting memory to write to

...which yeah

you need to make a call to the kernel

[restive furnace]

and why you would need to import c++ to write to memory with c#, execuse me?

[eternal osprey]

you guys are typing fucking slow

dang hurry up

[restive furnace]

let them type

[stable nimbus]

Is there a way to make the code wait a damn day without bugging out?

[eternal osprey]

literally 1 word per minute

[earnest phoenix]

what is the code

[stable nimbus]

Dude knock your crap off.

[oak cliff]

@eternal osprey please dont be rude towards people who are trying to help you.

Follow rule 1.

[quartz jewel]

@earnest phoenix Last time I used C# had to import ReadProcessMemory and WriteProcessMemory and many other functions from kernel32.dll to use them.

[earnest phoenix]

yes

those are kernel calls

[faint prism]

Makes sense, it's a kernal module probably full of syscalls

[earnest phoenix]

writing to process memory != writing to memory though

[eternal osprey]

i wasn't talking to the people helping me

[stable nimbus]

@earnest phoenix So the code is a interval for 24 hours to reset something in the database.

[eternal osprey]

no-one was trying to help, which i understand.

[oak cliff]

Okay dont be rude to anyone.

[restive furnace]

even msvc (c++) needs kernel32.lib for doing operations such as malloc(size_t bytes).

[oak cliff]

Follow rule 1, as I asked.

[eternal osprey]

it was a joke

[oak cliff]

Being rude isnt joking.

Dont argue with me, just move on and follow the rules

[stable nimbus]

setInterval(function(){
    botdb.query(`UPDATE users SET commandsday = 0`);
    console.log(`Daily commands have been reset!`);
}, 5184000000)

This is the code for my interval.

[slender thistle]

no-one was trying to help, which i understand.
@eternal osprey because no one here is proficient in Python

Try to install six manually

when does that error occur anyway

[eternal osprey]

i wasn't mocking on anyone because they didn't help...

when i try to push it to heroku

[slender thistle]

Send full traceback

[quartz jewel]

@slender thistle People need to be able to help themself first instead of expecting to be spoonfed everything.

[faint prism]

I don't mind helping beginners in the right direction
I'd consider sending perfect code snippets for the issue to be spoonfeeding though

[restive furnace]

and we arent spoonfeeding btw

snippets != spoonfeeding

full code == spoonfeeding

[stable nimbus]

=== more like

[restive furnace]

=== for js

[stable nimbus]

Right. I do code in js myself.

[quartz jewel]

Most of people just copy paste from google and don't attempt to figure it out themself why it doesn't work.

[earnest phoenix]

Most of people just copy paste from google and don't attempt to figure it out themself why it doesn't work.
this is what you'll often see here lol, DBL is full of that

[slender thistle]

And if you're not going to be helpful, move on

[quartz jewel]

Anything relating to coding on Discord it happens @earnest phoenix

[stable nimbus]

I do have an issue currently, I am trying to set up a 24 hour interval (which I know how to but something went wrong) and I am unsure what happened. The 24 hour interval resets something in the database.

setInterval(function(){
    botdb.query(`UPDATE users SET commandsday = 0`);
    console.log(`Daily commands have been reset!`);
}, 5184000000)```
This is the code, that big string is 24 hours (I think)

[restive furnace]

1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 is a day in ms

[pale vessel]

24 hours is 86400000

[stable nimbus]

Okay, a better way to set it up is definetly nicer. Thanks mate.

[eternal osprey]

owh i just found out that heroku doesn't automatically support numpy and numphy

you have to use a buildpack

powered by pip

[faint prism]

pip is the package installer

[slender thistle]

That's the main pain of Heroku tbh

[eternal osprey]

i know

heroku makes things look so much easier

[stable nimbus]

Get yourself a hosting provider asap.

[slender thistle]

eh

[eternal osprey]

but in reality there relies errors in every corner

[slender thistle]

I'll have to disagree with that

[earnest phoenix]

setInterval works with numbers up to max value of signed 32bit ints, 5184000000 goes beyond that

[floral creek]

how do u put a bot in mobile mode?

[dire obsidian]

Anyone know any invisible hex color?

[earnest phoenix]

how do u put a bot in mobile mode?
@floral creek
you need to modify your lib to support it

Anyone know any invisible hex color?
@dire obsidian that doesn't exist

[eternal osprey]

#00FFFFFF

[slender thistle]

There's no invisible HEX color per se, there's ones that blend with Discord client backgrounds

[stable nimbus]

Ah, no wonder it shat itself 😆

[dire obsidian]

;-;

[faint prism]

how do u put a bot in mobile mode?
@floral creek Maybe there is an API call for Discord API for that

[earnest phoenix]

there isn't

[eternal osprey]

if i'm not wrong this was a transparent white hexcode

[earnest phoenix]

it's a field in the IDENTIFY payload sent through the gateway, hence why you need to modify your lib to support it

[slender thistle]

It's a header or something when sending WS identify call iirc

[quartz jewel]

setInterval is bad to use.

[slender thistle]

iirc d.js allowed it to be edited in the code itself

[restive furnace]

you need to set your browser and platform to Discord Android or Discord iOS.

[slender thistle]

...with a small trick that I have no clue about

[restive furnace]

its easier with custom libs

[earnest phoenix]

[frail ocean]

@earnest phoenix Once again, probably your message event - I helped you with this ages ago. Have you got a message event now?

Once again, you still do not have a Message Event

[earnest phoenix]

How can I add one?

[slender thistle]

client.on("message", message => your code here)

[frail ocean]

Like I also said earlier.

[faint prism]

A message handler

[frail ocean]

Learn the language, and read the docs as well, it's on the front page.

[stable nimbus]

A message event would be nice for ya mate, I also reccommend getting yourself a command handler, and an advanced one so you can use more than one folder.

[frail ocean]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/general/welcome

[eternal osprey]

can't you also make a command with If message.Content.Startswith ....

[floral creek]

hm

[quartz jewel]

@frail ocean People don't know what learning the language means.

[restive furnace]

you can

[stable nimbus]

I retract.

[eternal osprey]

did you really just say that this was python

[slender thistle]

Are you going to actually be helpful or just shit on everyone and everything, Frank

[frail ocean]

<ping> People don't know what learning the language means.
@quartz jewel I don't really understand what there isn't to understand about "learn the language" but ok.

[eternal osprey]

it's okay

frank has dem balls

[stable nimbus]

I learned it and I understand it really well.

Well, I say that.

[eternal osprey]

tbh the punisher was a really good series

[stable nimbus]

Getting better every day.

[pale vessel]

#general

[slender thistle]

Stay on topic of development

[eternal osprey]

sorry

[quartz jewel]

@frail ocean Yeah there isn't much that needs to be understood but majority that post code asking for help haven't done that step or started but not finished doing it.

[earnest phoenix]

So like im off 1 day and ppl are fighting i c

[eternal osprey]

this is the error

that heroku gives when pushing my bot

[slender thistle]

Let me get my loop rq

[earnest phoenix]

I dont use py sry

[slender thistle]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44302042/heroku-build-fails-always-says-no-module-named-six try this

[eternal osprey]

it's okay 😉

[drifting wedge]

{max_age}

is this correct?

for invite info

im usong python

[slender thistle]

Under what context

[delicate shore]

msg.channel.fetchMessage('748198453363998833').then(msg => msg.delete());```

[drifting wedge]

like invite deleted

[delicate shore]

it gives me an error

[slender thistle]

what's the error

[delicate shore]

msg.channel.fetchMessage is not a function

[earnest phoenix]

Yo @slender thistle quick question is a way to track messages like obv with collector but like messages from 10 days ago lets say

[drifting wedge]

me?

[delicate shore]

dont tell me its cache

[earnest phoenix]

Not rn after i do on collector and turn the collector on

[drifting wedge]

max age not defined

[slender thistle]

I'm not familiar with message collectors in JS per se

[earnest phoenix]

Oh i c

[delicate shore]

not

[earnest phoenix]

But like u got my point right?

[pale vessel]

you can fetch an old message and create a collector for it

[delicate shore]

@slender thistle you know and js and py both??

[pale vessel]

wait nm

[slender thistle]

Basic JS, more of a Python person

[pale vessel]

i'm stupid

[earnest phoenix]

you can fetch an old message and create a collector for it
@pale vessel ok

[pale vessel]

that was for reactions lol

[slender thistle]

But the way I would do it is cache them independently of my library's caching system, then probably check if message.createdAt - date.now is more than or equal to 10 days ago

[eternal osprey]

Because it is google translation, I'm sorry if it turned funny. I was addicted in exactly the same situation. I do not know why it went well, but I replaced it to describe "six == 1.10.0" at the beginning of "requirements.txt" and deployed it. by the way, but my version of python is 3.6```

do they mean that i have to downgrade my six version to 1.10.0 in the requirements.txt

[slender thistle]

or try to explicitly state the latest version

[earnest phoenix]

But the way I would do it is cache them independently of my library's caching system, then probably check if message.createdAt - date.now is more than or equal to 10 days ago
@slender thistle oooh i c

[eternal osprey]

yeah i already have the latest version

so i think downgrading would work?

[slender thistle]

ehh, TIAS tbh

[faint prism]

Ohhhh there is a LatencyChanged event. I could do something with that. Anyone know how often that is fired typically?

[slender thistle]

what's it even used for

[faint prism]

I use it in my info command

[slender thistle]

Oh, websocket latency

[faint prism]

But I was thinking of using it in the status, similar to how TheReal#1781 has his status

[earnest phoenix]

can't you periodically update it instead of on the event

[slender thistle]

I mean, there's the option of setting an interval where you get the websocket latency

yeah

[faint prism]

Well yeah I could. But i want to know how often that event is fired first

[earnest phoenix]

it's on every heartbeat iirc

[faint prism]

If it's constantly, then I probably won't use it

ah

[sand skiff]

hi

[delicate shore]

message.CreatedAt

[pale vessel]

no

[minor tusk]

anyone

do u know how to host bot with glitch?

[tight plinth]

sorry, but glitch is not viable to host discord bots

[minor tusk]

wait

[tight plinth]

congrats u just downloaded your bots file

ig

[quartz jewel]

@minor tusk You need a web server running pinging your project website url every 5 minutes to keep it online.

[minor tusk]

yeahh

but what should i do

[tight plinth]

@minor tusk You need a web server running pinging your project website url every 5 minutes to keep it online.
@quartz jewel that wont work

read pinned messages

[minor tusk]

@tight plinth can u help me about it?

[quartz jewel]

@tight plinth It does work, that's how I used to do it when would use glitch, unless things have changed on it since then.

[earnest phoenix]

@quartz kindle you may or may not know me but im @earnest phoenix, are you decent with api security by any chance?

im writing a "secure-as-possible" express api boilerplate and wanted input on if there is any blatant security flaws

[tight plinth]

@tight plinth It does work, that's how I used to do it when would use glitch, unless things have changed on it since then.
@quartz jewel that's illegal according to glitch tos

@tight plinth can u help me about it?
@minor tusk get a vps for less than 5 bucks a month and ur good to go

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix depends on what the api does

@minor tusk If you live in Europe get VPS on contabo.

[earnest phoenix]

its just a boilerplate to throw up api's quickly that i know will be secure for the most part

[tight plinth]

not only if you live in Europe

[earnest phoenix]

@quartz kindle https://github.com/GagePielsticker/Express-API-Boilerplate

[minor tusk]

im asian

[tight plinth]

just get a vps at contabo if you want to

[earnest phoenix]

if you see any blatant probls lmk

made it a few hrs ago

[tight plinth]

4$ a month for a good vps

[faint prism]

$3/mo for galaxy iirc

[minor tusk]

i just want a free vps-,-

[quartz jewel]

AWS is free for a year apparently.

[faint prism]

i just want a free vps-,-
@minor tusk You mean you want some sketchy guy to have access to your bot's code and token for free?

[quartz jewel]

^

[minor tusk]

....

[faint prism]

Because that's what free VPSes typically are

[quartz jewel]

Free ones are usually shared.

[topaz fjord]

aws free vps aren't shared

[earnest phoenix]

finally figured out how to do the account readme thing

[minor tusk]

is that good?

[faint prism]

🤷‍♂️ I've never heard of it

[quartz jewel]

Try it and see for yourself.

[opal plank]

i dont see many ads and that scares me

it would've been fine if it was filled with advertisements

[quartz jewel]

^

@opal plank Just about everything is ad infested nowadays though.

[opal plank]

nono

its BAD that it does NOT have ads

i would've liked it to have ads

[topaz fjord]

not all vps providers put ads

digital ocean doesn't put any

same with galaxygate

[opal plank]

each company needs to make money somehow, the fact that they are free means they are profitting somewhere else

[quartz jewel]

It's a free though so you'd expect it to have ads.

[quartz kindle]

@earnest phoenix i dont see any blatant problems, but i would do a lot of things differently

[earnest phoenix]

like?

[quartz kindle]

like not exposing node.js directly to the internet

and use an nginx reverse proxy, with ssl termination

[earnest phoenix]

yea reverse proxy ssl stuff would probably be better

[quartz kindle]

rate limits can also be controlled by the reverse proxy

[earnest phoenix]

yea someone else suggested that

i debated taking them out and stating in readme that

but at the same time its like i want to bundle it in the app so that you can jsut throw up an api easily and not assume the user knows to setup a reverse proxy

i put that in the foreword in the readme

[quartz kindle]

i see

the security features can be a problem

[earnest phoenix]

still debating if i want to remove it entirely and just saying that

[quartz kindle]

for example, if your security is too tight, the api wont work from cross-domain browser js for example

xss is also only relevant if the api is outputting html code

a json api for example doesnt suffer from xss

[earnest phoenix]

i imagine api will store input data to a database

which is why the xss filter is there

because if later down the line that data is presented on web

or elsewhere

[quartz kindle]

yes

i think security-wise its fine, but it does seem a bit bloated

not that beginners care

they just want stuff to work out of the box

[earnest phoenix]

yea its kind of a weird mix of like i want it to be a one in all solution to just throwing up a simple but secure api

but at the same time it feels a bit bloated

its getting a bit of traction though which is nice

[quartz kindle]

the user still needs to know how to generate ssl certs, why cant they learn how to use nginx lul

[earnest phoenix]

fair lol

[quartz kindle]

a good addition would be more database options

not everyone is comfortable with mongoose

[earnest phoenix]

yes but at that point i might just write a cli that generates file based on a db param deal

like express-generator

[quartz jewel]

Could implement multiple database types so people can use whatever one they're most comfortable with.

[earnest phoenix]

having multiple databases added would be really clunky

ideally either a generator where you could pick one, have one static on the repo, or just none

[quartz kindle]

most libs rely on plugins for database selection

[modest smelt]

lol

Anyone need help with embeds?

[green bison]

can anyone give me the link for the docs

[warm marsh]

What docs?

[green bison]

client.channels

[warm marsh]

For what library?

[pale vessel]

discordie

[warm marsh]

[green bison]

you mean discord.js?

[misty sigil]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Client?scrollTo=channels

there

client.channels

[green bison]

ty

is this correct?
client.channels.get

[nimble kiln]

If using discord.js v12 then you have to use client.channels.cache.get(channelid)

[faint prism]

having multiple databases added would be really clunky
@earnest phoenix not if you design the db contexts using interfaces

The CRUD part wouldn't be too bad at least
See #development message for how I implement something like handling multiple db contexts

[green bison]

thank you

[restive furnace]

discord.io best

not deprecated 100%, believe me!

go use it

[quartz jewel]

Discord.io 😂

[misty sigil]

[green bison]

is this correct?
client.channels.cache.get("channelid").sendEmbed(embed)

[misty sigil]

no just .send

[faint prism]

I use an interface to define the required functionality, then I get more specific with the model I'll be getting or returning via an abstract class, and finally a concrete implementation that I supply using dependency inversion

[quartz jewel]

client.channels.cache.get("channelid").send({ embed: embed });
@green bison

[green bison]

no just .send
@misty sigil Message instead of send?

[misty sigil]

client.channels.cache.get("channelid").send(embed)

[green bison]

oh ok

thank you

[earnest phoenix]

how was the role mention? <@${role.id}>

tagged

was something like this

[misty sigil]

its <@&>

[earnest phoenix]

oh thx

[nimble kiln]

Or you could use role.toString()

[misty sigil]

@Bot Developer

[nimble kiln]

if it's a role object

[quartz jewel]

Or could just mention a role and add a backslash to the start.

[green bison]

__Server Count__ → ${client.guilds.size}**);
is not working

[earnest phoenix]

what is not working

[nimble kiln]

client.guilds.cache.size is what you want - if using discord.js v12

[misty sigil]

what is not working
@earnest phoenix oH hey welcome back

[green bison]

so every code in v12 has to have .cache?

[misty sigil]

no?

[nimble kiln]

@green bison https://discordjs.guide/additional-info/changes-in-v12.html#before-you-start
You should check this, has lots of useful info about v11 to v12 changes

[green bison]

thank you

[earnest phoenix]

in v12 everything related to cache had moved to cache managers, the collections are in their respective manager.cache property

[misty sigil]

message.author.roles.add

[nimble kiln]

Can you even add roles to an author?

yeah gotta be a GuildMember object

[karmic compass]

wait, if i have a set "a", "b", "c" and i want to check if a message HAS one of those values, how would this be done?

const letters = new Set()
letters.add("a")
letters.add("b")
letters.add("c")
client.on('message', (message) => {
  //Thing I don't know
})

[pale vessel]

use set.has()

set.has("a")

that returns a boolean

[misty sigil]

i dont think thats what they wanted

[karmic compass]

yeah

i mean if i said

fskljdfs a sfldkjsdf i want that to return true

lsdfkjs sdlfkj should return false, same with b and c

[pale vessel]

what like split it by "" and use .some()?

[karmic compass]

what doees .some() do?

is there a page for the docs that i can check that out

[cinder patio]

You can loop through the set and check if any of the values are included in the message., only do this if you HAVE to use a set. Otherwise you should store the values in an array and use some

[misty sigil]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/some#:~:text=The some() method executes,Otherwise%2C some() returns false .

yes there is

[cinder patio]

There's no some to Sets

[safe kelp]

Anyone here know discord.py??

[pale vessel]

just ask

[misty sigil]

https://dontasktoask.com

[safe kelp]

I need uptime command of Discord.py

[misty sigil]

like code or how you would do it

[safe kelp]

@client.command

Ik you are saying it spoon feeding

[wanton dew]

[quartz jewel]

Custom client > default client that comes with lib.

[safe kelp]

?

[misty sigil]

default client best

[pale vessel]

who asked

[quartz jewel]

@misty sigil No.

[misty sigil]

well its not against tos

[quartz jewel]

Inherit from default client then can expand it's functionality and make things easier to do.

[cinder patio]

It depends on what functionality you need

[earnest phoenix]

Why would

{ ...[ ..."Bruh" ] };``` would return an error while
```js
let someArr = [ ..."Bruh" ];
let someObj = { ...someArr };

someObj;``` wouldn't?
Is this some kind of syntax problem or the array of pass through the spread operator Should be done beforehand

[karmic compass]

i got the whole array.some thing but whatdoyouput in the ()'s to check if it includes? i tried doing message.content, includes?

[cinder patio]

The first snippet works fine when I place it in the dev tools console

[earnest phoenix]

["Bruh", "Something", "nah", "huh", "hmm"].some(e => message.content.toLowerCase().includes(e));``` is how you would use it @karmic compass

@cinder patio really

[karmic compass]

thanks

[hazy sparrow]

how can i restrict code to only work in a specific server? is it same as users?

[earnest phoenix]

check for the guild id

[warm marsh]

guild.id == id you want

[misty sigil]

if(message.guild.id != "guildID")return

or something

[earnest phoenix]

I used the first one it threw an error of js SyntaxError: unexpected token '...' @cinder patio

[hazy sparrow]

if (message.guild.id == "insert id here") return?

[misty sigil]

yea

wait no

[hazy sparrow]

the opposite*

[misty sigil]

!==

[warm marsh]

Although you probably don't want to return

[misty sigil]

oh wait

shit i misread

wait no i didnt

fuck im confused

[cinder patio]

I dunno, works fine in chrome dev tools, I don't see a reason it wouldn't work in node, they use the same engine

[hazy sparrow]

its !message.guild.id lmao

[earnest phoenix]

silent, well, have you read the error, it clearly says the address is already in use

[hazy sparrow]

@misty sigil lol

[earnest phoenix]

its !message.guild.id lmao
@hazy sparrow Wot

[misty sigil]

no?

[earnest phoenix]

@cinder patio i believe that ... is es6 syntax

[misty sigil]

message.guild.id !== "guild id"

or am i insane

[earnest phoenix]

!==

[hazy sparrow]

!= exists?!?!?!

[misty sigil]

yes?!

[hazy sparrow]

why didnt i knew that before

[sudden geyser]

what were you doing before

[earnest phoenix]

because you don't know the language

[pale vessel]

true

[earnest phoenix]

logic operators are something you should cover

[hazy sparrow]

because you don't know the language
@earnest phoenix i guess?

[sonic lodge]

nice to see you again cry

[hazy sparrow]

i always used !message.guild === () not message.guild !=== (0

[earnest phoenix]

So != is just the negator of ==? Or it's same as !==

[stone birch]

silent, well, have you read the error, it clearly says the address is already in use
@earnest phoenix yes i did, but every number i try is invalid

[earnest phoenix]

former, voltrex

A wot

[hazy sparrow]

wait guys !message.guild.id === x will also work or am i confused

[earnest phoenix]

no

that doesn't do what you think it does

[sudden geyser]

! turns it into a boolean

[earnest phoenix]

^

[hazy sparrow]

im trying to see if a guild doesent have that id

[earnest phoenix]

message.guild.id !== "ID"```

[sudden geyser]

as in if the guild ID is equal to x

[hazy sparrow]

yup

[earnest phoenix]

you need to incase the comparison in parentheses, but why would you do that when you can just negate the equality operator, see what voltrex sent

[stone birch]

do I just have to try a different number all the time or do I have to get the number from somewhere?

[robust arrow]

How can I get the bot to leave voice channel after the mp3 file ends?

Current code:

            case "omd":
                const { voice } = message.member

                if (!voice.channelID) { 
                    return message.reply("no.")
                };
                
                voice.channel.join().then((connection) => {
                    const dispatcher = connection.play(path.join(__dirname, 'audio.mp3'));
                    dispatcher.on('end', end => {voice.channel.leave()})
                })
            .catch(console.error);
break;

discord.js v12

[earnest phoenix]

StreamDispatcher doesn't have a end event

[warm marsh]

^

[earnest phoenix]

It's finish

[robust arrow]

oh

[warm marsh]

It used to be end

[earnest phoenix]

If js VoiceChannel.leave() doesn't work there's also

VoiceChannel.disconnect()```

<Idk what's the difference though>

[misty sigil]

Promise { <Probably the same thing> }

[robust arrow]

I don't think it has a "finish" event

[sudden geyser]

@earnest phoenix the second one is supposed to be VoiceConnection.disconnect(), which is like a little different.

[earnest phoenix]

@robust arrow it has a finish event, it's what i use

@sudden geyser yea didn't realize that

[robust arrow]

it gives me a "finished" event

[dawn plaza]

Do bots automatically have different memories for each server?

[earnest phoenix]

uh

what

[misty sigil]

what

[earnest phoenix]

@dawn plaza You mean shards

[dawn plaza]

I'm new, sorry

[earnest phoenix]

Or the main client as master process shard

[misty sigil]

no they dont have shards automatically

[dawn plaza]

How do you make shards?

[misty sigil]

with a sharding manager

[earnest phoenix]

Every bot has a shard, it's the main one

you probably don't need shards yet

[misty sigil]

yea if you don't know what they are you dont need them

[earnest phoenix]

But to make more you need to use ShardingManager

2500 guilds is recommended to use shards when your bot hits it

[misty sigil]

its required

[earnest phoenix]

enforced*

[misty sigil]

you can shard early

[earnest phoenix]

recommended is at 2k for slow growth and 1.5k for fast growth

[warm marsh]

Tbh creating a bot with shards even if you're just starting is probably better, saves having to rewrite a load of things.

[earnest phoenix]

But then you have to manage the shards and the master process at the same time which is more pain

[quartz jewel]

@dawn plaza Bot's don't store memories, they're not humans.

[earnest phoenix]

Wot

[warm marsh]

Animals can store memories.

[misty sigil]

humans are animals

just finished my prefix caching too

[earnest phoenix]

Bots use memory like storing users in their cache, collections

[quartz jewel]

Human is just one of the many examples that can store memories.

[sudden geyser]

yes bots store memories. they have databases 😠

[ionic dawn]

humans are animals
@misty sigil with a better software

[solemn leaf]

const Discord = require("discord.js");
const imageFilterCore = require('image-filter-core');

module.exports.run = async (bot, message, args) => {
    let color = '#' + ("000000" + Math.random().toString(16).slice(2, 8).toUpperCase()).slice(-6)
    let IMAGE_DATA = "https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/265156286406983680/748234621950492742/meme.png"
    imageInvert(IMAGE_DATA, nWorkers)
        .then(function (result) {
            // result === ImageData object
            let image = document.createElement('img');
            image.setAttribute('src', imageFilterCore.convertImageDataToCanvasURL(imageData));
            target.appendChild(image);
            const Embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
                .setColor(color)
                .setImage(result)
            
            message.channel.send(Embed)
        });
}

module.exports.help = {
    name: "invert"
}

why isnt this sending anything>?

[misty sigil]

and better hardware

[stone birch]

every webhookPort I try is already taken, how do I find one that hasn't been used yet?

[misty sigil]

try 6969
