#development
opal plank
its suppose to run twice when debugging
pre-commit
the upper one is for the beta branch(my debugging session)
then commit
now it no work on the main branch
earnest phoenix
@opal plank soul ?
nah
i have my template
so i just copy and paste
that is
$3 best price
:))
opal plank
lets see if that fixes it
this is a really odd bug ngl
i guess it was that little snippet up there
how come this is setting the whole message as empty?
opal plank
ternary is somehow sending the whole message as empty
earnest phoenix
uhh
earnest phoenix
try ? `ur text` : `NOTHING`
then see what will happend
if it send ntohing
nah
it is useless
earnest phoenix
hmm
opal plank
its definetly that bit screwing up
though compiles just fine on my end
yeah wtf
opal plank
if u didnt realize thats me forcing it to be falsey
dawn plaza
Ho do you get a bot to count how many servers it is in?
misty sigil
what lib
dawn plaza
^
earnest phoenix
@dawn plaza
client.guilds.cache.size
Thank you!
earnest phoenix
oh no
opal plank
twitch has been fucking my brain up cuz im calling them channels
earnest phoenix
i spoonfeeded
solemn leaf
can
opal plank
solemn leaf
I do this so see if a message about to be sent is morn then 2000 characters
if (data.length >= 1500) return;
opal plank
works once and then breaks wtf
misty sigil
djs docs are confusing
solemn leaf
^^
solemn leaf
module.exports.run = async (bot, message, args) => {
figlet(args.join(' '), function (err, data) {
if (err) {
console.log('Something went wrong...');
console.dir(err);
return;
}
if (data.length >= 1500) return;
message.channel.send(Embed)
})
}
can I do this to prevent message being to big and breaking my bot?
opal plank
cache is also definetly there
93 channels in cache
wtf
OH SHIT
i see the issue now
restive furnace
if u didnt realize thats me forcing it to be falsey
@opal plank why not just use true
i mean false
opal plank
no clue tbh
dawn plaza
How would I make the bot say the answer to client.guilds.cache.size, if it needs a string to send?
Sorry I'm super new
earnest phoenix
@misty sigil discordjs.guild is better
misty sigil
no
earnest phoenix
yes
restive furnace
discordjs.guild is non-existent too :)
misty sigil
you shouldn't be a beginner to reading docs if you're making a bot
restive furnace
i would rather use discord.js.org than non-existent discordjs.guild, even discordjs.guide exists.
restive furnace
^^^
earnest phoenix
@restive furnace but it exist : /
opal plank
thats the for dummies docs they got
earnest phoenix
its more a spoonfeed page ngl
@misty sigil LMAO
misty sigil
discord.js.org is always my choice of docs
misty sigil
not mr spoonfeed

at least discordjs.guide says to learn js

if the bot is cached on your client, it'll resolve, if not, it wont and will just show the id

resolve by name

all of those have users accessible on member

access user then user_name iirc
either name or user_name

faint prism
perhaps a variable is incorrectly used
opal plank
i got what you mean but idk how the f that happened
its really confusing that you calling your var user when its a member though
just induces confusion

console.log variables and the variable's name lol
opal plank
im pretty sure its not suppose to to.string() it
solemn leaf
?

okay
but
why does the pfp work not the name
.setFooter(user.displayName, user.user.displayAvatarURL({ dynamic: true }))
doesnt make sense

Oh, msg id probably
earnest phoenix
Bot id?
opal plank
thats attachment id iirc
heavy marsh
Is there a way to get that?
faint prism
msg id is probably one of them
opal plank
if you delete the media its proxy fucks up
send message
then edit payload without image
try the link again
even if message exists its proxy gets removed iirc
that last id is the attachment id iirc
dont quote me on that though, its been a long as time ive fucked with attachments
heavy marsh
hmm so send message then edit it?
opal plank
send message with pic
grab the attachment url
edit the SAME message without image in it
then check link(reload)
i think it'll say not found iirc
cuz that message no longer has any attachments on it
heavy marsh
Well I need it for a command

if a user deletes the message its gg

dawn plaza
if(command === 'test'){client.commands.get('test').execute(message, args);
} else if(command === 'insult'){
client.commands.get('insult').execute(message, args);
How would I turn this into a switch statement?
sudden geyser
You could go a step further and make it more dynamic by not using ifs or switches.
dawn plaza
How?
sudden geyser
but if you wanted to do switches, just do switch (command) and each case being the command name string
To go dynamic, save client.commands.get(...) to a variable and give the first argument command (which is what the user entered)
If a command was found, you'll have something. If nothing was found, you'll get undefined. Check if it's not equal to undefined and run it (.execute(message, args)) if it exists.
dawn plaza
Okay, thank you!
sudden geyser
what they're doing is a command handler
opal plank
dynamic command handler
not a slighlty better if chain
im so about to regret doing this too

Personally, as long as the logic is separated from the event handler, it's fine

hey guys
so currently i made a bot that actually shows the weather of a given place
how can i actually search places BY the weather?
so if i do: weather sunny
earnest phoenix
find an api that supports it
faint prism
^ that or scrape some website
faint prism
@eternal osprey check the docs for these to see if they include a query by current weather or something
https://rapidapi.com/blog/access-global-weather-data-with-these-weather-apis/

Anyone else use nano as an editor for coding?
faint prism
Anyone else use nano as an editor for coding?
@quartz jewel if I'm in a linux terminal, yeah.
I used it for bash scripting mainly
quartz jewel
I use it for all coding on Linux and never code on anything other than Linux.
opal plank
Nano is literally the only thing ive been using on linux tbh
But only when needed
Vsc > nano
golden condor
Vscode is easier to use
quartz jewel
My main reason for using it is because can code faster.
quartz jewel
nano > Visual Studio Code
golden condor
lies
quartz jewel
It's preference though @golden condor
faint prism
nano > Visual Studio Code
@quartz jewel They are pretty different, so it's not a very good comparison
faint prism
Isn't that paid software?
quartz jewel
@faint prism Yeah one has a graphical interface and the other doesn't.
digital ibex
yeah
faint prism
or am I thinking of atom
digital ibex
but u just press ok and nothing happens
quartz jewel
Sublime is free.
eternal osprey
hmm i can't find an api where you can actually search by weather type.
anyone that knows one by chance?
faint prism
hmm i can't find an api where you can actually search by weather type.
@eternal osprey What would that even return with?
digital ibex
its like, download it, and then it says ur free trial has expired and that bs, just press ok and nothing happens, auger
faint prism
its like, download it, and then it says ur free trial has expired and that bs, just press ok and nothing happens, auger
@digital ibex like WinRAR
quartz jewel
You get asked now and then to buy a license but not required to continue using it.
eternal osprey
if i type like, !weather sunny
it gives me a list with a couple of countries that have the same weather type
atm
faint prism
so a way to implement that would be to have an array of top 50 popular cities or something and filter it by weather
quartz jewel
Why not just use one that does it by country and filter it yourself.
eternal osprey
i already have one that actually responds with the weather information
but you have to give a country/place first
quartz jewel
Use the information from each country/place/town/city and filter the weather types.
eternal osprey
yeah i will search a tutorial for that
as i have no clue on how to do that right now

hey guys
how do i use this site
to make a command like !weather sunny
and it gives me all the countries with sunny weather?
thick gull
it depends on the site you use
some sites might have that functionality
others might not
earnest phoenix
Is there a way to unreact? I've added await m.react('X') but I'd like to remove the reaction. Anyway I can? Using Discord.js.
faint prism
how do i use this site
@eternal osprey https://openweathermap.org/api
eternal osprey
?
can't i do something like this:
fetch(
"https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast?q=" +
this.state.userInput +
"&units=metric&APPID="
)
.then(results => {
return results.json();
})
.then(data => {
let days = data.list.filter(day => {
return day.dt_txt.endsWith("15:00:00");
})
.map((day, index) => {
return (
<CardComponent
i={index}
flip={e => {
let card = document.getElementById(index);
card.classList.toggle("is-flipped");
}}
date={day.dt_txt.slice(5, 11)}
temp={Math.round(day.main.temp)}
/>
);
});
this.setState(() => {
return {
days: days,
userInput: ""
};
});
})
.catch(error => {});
but then filter it with the keyword sunny?
and make different databases for each weather type?
and connect that database to the actual keyword used in the command. So if you type !weather sunny, it would trigger the sunny database?
or is this the most shit that you guys have heard?
quartz jewel
@eternal osprey Use code block for it.

What is a "DM System". If you can come up with what it is, you'll probably be able to fill in the logic on how it goes (but can refer here if you run into trouble).
sand skiff
DM SYSTEM= Where if you run a command "-dm @sand skiff You have been fired.
-Sent from the Team" and this DM system has a cooldown
and the mentioned person gets that dm
You have been fired.
-Sent from the Team
opal plank
dont allow people to dm thru ur bot

but with a specific role
opal plank
can be used for bsd reasons
sand skiff
oh

ill make sure
i want it to be a role setup so that
after i mention the role
like

even with a specific role someone can send something that is against the TOS (child porn, cub, etc.) and get your bot terminated
opal plank
mass dms likely
sand skiff
oh ok
opal plank
thsts againsf tos
earnest phoenix
mass dming is api abuse, so yes

You'd want to restrict the command and think of all worst case scenarios and prevent them from occurring.

@drifting wedge it's not a property of the discord.Colour class

It's literally converted into an integer as-is from 0x......

so remove discord?

@sand skiff Record how much time has passed since the ready event has been emitted.

remove discord.Colour

what

Because a hexadecimal number is an object
not a property of anything by default
It's a Python object

what is the error
sudden geyser
Aki for the record, you can just pass "RANDOM" instead of trying to generate a random color yourself.
What is your exact error though? I see that you tried using .fetch(...) on the roles manager, which returns a promise, which could be your issue since you don't resolve it.

0x3498DB that isn't a function.

@sudden geyser what do i do then
@solemn leaf you resolve the promise first. Either withawaitor.then

I also recommend you read this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Using_promises

@drifting wedge Use something like sololearn or codeacademy to learn the language first.

good

nvm
it is undefined

console.log(role.name)
how do i filter info from openweatherapi?

@sudden geyser it didnt
quartz jewel
By using the .filter method.
quartz jewel
You would have to read the documentation to find that out.
sudden geyser
@solemn leaf log the value of role to the console and see what you got

Or use a debugger and breakpoints

i have a error for my discord bot
is requessted update nodejs
quartz kindle
either install the package from the nodejs website or install and use nvm (node version manager)
solemn leaf
how do I get apt
quartz jewel
You get it by using a debian based Linux distro.
quartz kindle
apt is built in depending on your linux distro
solemn leaf
I dont have linux
quartz kindle
then why do you need apt?
solemn leaf
for lifecycle for color thief
quartz jewel
Windows sucks.

If I have an event listener for every command (I know, not a good thing, I'm gonna rewrite it), will that cause problems? Or will it just be slower?
quartz jewel
You could have conflicts, just create a command handler instead of using more than one event listener per event.
wheat mesa
Okay, sounds good. Thanks!
quartz jewel
@wheat mesa And if you don't want the command handler to look messy make the commands external.

.net and node working together is so beautiful https://youtu.be/9rVZ1nyiG8g

Hmm, so I have a base64 encoded gif. I want to send it as an embed as a reply to a command
But the output is a bit odd. I feel like I'm missing an important step
faint prism
I'd think I should be able to attach it
Relevant snippet. It's probably garbage, first time writing JS
client.on('message', async msg => {
if (msg.content.startsWith(wolframPrefix)) {
var result = await waApi.getSimple(msg.content
.split(wolframPrefix)[1])
.catch(console.error)
var resultBuffer = new Buffer.from(result, 'base64');
var embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.attachFiles(resultBuffer)
msg.reply(embed);
}
});
plush magnet
well if you want to test if your encoding works save it to your local disk
faint prism
good idea
plush magnet
if you can view it then youre on the right track
faint prism
if you can view it then youre on the right track
@plush magnet I scrapped that approach. I found a simpler API call that returned text lol
Well, done developing that bot. Took only an hr. EZ

@faint prism how does one invite wolfram alpha?
earnest phoenix
it's a private bot
it isn't anything revolutionary it just scrapes wolframalpha i believe
faint prism
No, I actually use their API.
@faint prism how does one invite wolfram alpha?
@static trench give me a few minutes to get back home, I'll make it public and give you an invite if you want.
Currently, it only works for short answers
earnest phoenix
oh they have an api?
faint prism
Yeah and a library too
Although their library is pretty simple
But then again, their API is just get requests anyways
So you really wouldn't need a library TBH

Relevant snippet. It's probably garbage, first time writing JS
@faint prism - Look intodiscord.js-commando. Making your own command handlers, it'd be silly to re-invent the wheel.
faint prism
@faint prism - Look into
discord.js-commando. Making your own command handlers, it'd be silly to re-invent the wheel.
@paper phoenix ty, but I'll probably come up with my own solution when I learn how to use classes
static trench
Can u make it public?
faint prism
Ye 1m I'll DM you
Like I said though, he currently only supports questions that can be answered as a "short answer".
If that does not exist I don't have the "full answer" implemented yet
modest crane
wolfram alpha have a free API? nice
faint prism
mhm
prisma locust
d.js can I create a category on a server in V12?
message.guild.channels.create("name", "category") it didn't work. This code created a text channel.
carmine summit
is there any way to react to a specific message in a specific channel?
sudden geyser
If you have the message ID or store it in cache you can react to it (assuming you have Add Reactions permissions).
carmine summit
if (command == "react"){
if (!args[2]) message.channel.send("?react <ChannelID> <MessageID> <Reaction>")
var channelid = args[0]
var messageid = args[1]
var emoji = args[2]
var react = client.channels.cache.get(channelid).messages.fetch(messageid);
message.react(emoji)
}
```This is what i got so farbut even if all syntax are correct
it reacts to the latest message
earnest phoenix
look at what you're calling react() on
earnest phoenix
take a guess
carmine summit
react.react()?
earnest phoenix
correct, however fetch() is a promise and you need to either await it or use the promise pattern (.then())
carmine summit
var react = await client.channels.cache.get(channelid).messages.fetch(messageid);
?
earnest phoenix
try it and see
carmine summit
thanks
faint prism
@earnest phoenix you'd cry if you saw what I was doing in JS
ngl the rapid deployment and short dev time was kinda nice. But boy is not maintainable
Do I dare share code? I'd probably embarrass myself
earnest phoenix
as you wish lol
my brain is all over the place
i've been working with node and c# for the past two weeks
communicating via pipes
earnest phoenix
that's a yikes

is it possible to define a embed on the top that every command can use without const it in the command code?
plush magnet
There's no point. If you use the original embed you will make changes to that embed in one command and the next command will have the changes that the first one did so either way you're still going to use the new keyword
earnest phoenix
you can create a helper function to generate the embed if the design is the same all the time to cut yourself some slack
faint prism
using proper functions is a bit nicer
still violating DRY principle with that repeated msg embed though
could do what cry said above though ^
faint prism
maybe a date formatter
JS?
how can I have this not be so long
@solemn leaf https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_date_formats.asp
solemn leaf
can I use something like moment?
faint prism
Pretty sure you can construct it with a string. That link is exactly what you're looking for though
faint prism
What is a "dat"?
solemn leaf
.createdAt
faint prism
Ah
solemn leaf
also
can I not do
.setDescription(<@${ment.id}>, ment.displayAvatarURL({ dynamic: true }))
karmic compass
for profile in profilesData["profiles"]:
print(profile["cute_name"])
``` is there a way for every "cute_name" in every "profile", it can be (speaking js here) mapped to an array? i tried variable.append(profile["cute_name"]) but it only got 1i think it doesn't save
karmic compass
i'm taking most of this knowledge from js lmfao
i've done something like this in discord.js for every role a user has that isn't everyone it would push it to an array
sudden geyser
actually I wasn't wrong
faint prism
Tfw fruit are cute
karmic compass
fruit == cute? pog
faint prism
===
karmic compass
funny thing is
the non cute name is like 0fghhjjkcvvdffgjj45ksd so yeah
anyways
sudden geyser
Python only takes into account scopes for functions, so that syntax is correct. What I think you're doing wrong is the fact you're assigning the variable an empty list every time in the loop then appending it, so you're always resetting it for every interation.
You could try declaring the list above the loop then only doing .append(...) in the loop, then log the list after the loop
karmic compass
OHHH
thank you
that was a small brain moment
it just redeclares it every single time

how can I have it format like that not this
Sun Sep 02 2018 20:39:20 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time)
faint prism
Using the link I sent earlier
solemn leaf
didnt help lmao
faint prism
Then regex it or something
solemn leaf
okay fixed
thanks
but it says my status is this
presence.status
and how is there a difference in these
karmic compass
just a passable question in python what does f"sdfkljs" do?
sudden geyser
So you want to format the date so it looks like that instead of the default correct
karmic compass
is it the same as doing `sdfkljsdf` in js?
sudden geyser
it's an f string so it's like that in js
a few differences but you use {} instead of ${} in js
karmic compass
ye
solemn leaf
but what it says
karmic compass
i got that
solemn leaf
isnt when I created my account
the top is
this is what I did
${moment.utc(ment.createdAt).format('dddd, MMMM Do YYYY, HH:mm:ss')}
@sudden geyser
carmine summit
const streamingRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'temp');
this causing error...
solemn leaf
let streamingRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === "temp");
if that doesnt work
then temp isnt a role
solemn leaf
yes
karmic compass
ok i have a decently hard python question here
if i have an object like this (its from an api so im just assuming) json { "profiles":{ "fdsjaflksdjflkajsdf":{ "cute_name":"Lime", "veryImportant":"Value 1" } "aaaaaaa":{ "cute_name":"Pomegranete", "veryImportant":"Value 2" } } } and i have gotten all "cute_name"s by doing ```python
for profile in profilesData["profiles"]:
cuteNames.append(profile["cute_name"])
specifiedProfile = input(f"What profile out of {cuteNames} would you like?")
that's probably a terrible explanation
carmine summit
yes
@solemn leaf it just says that message isnt defined
solemn leaf
then you didnt do your thing righ stop pingign
carmine summit
what thing
faint prism
that's probably a terrible explanation
@karmic compass why not just store an integer instead
karmic compass
?
solemn leaf
@faint prism can I add images to fleids?
karmic compass
btw Auger that's an API i can't change that
radiant patio
need help
