[earnest phoenix]

@ripe wadi

client.channels.cache.get("ID")

[ripe wadi]

oh

lemme try

it works, tysm <3

[pale vessel]

@ripe wadi your method works if you add await

[ripe wadi]

ohhh okay

[split hazel]

is there even such a method

okay there is

[blazing ravine]

giphy api work on discord.js ?

[slender thistle]

An API should work with all programming languages that support HTTP requests

[blazing ravine]

hm

const client = GphApiClient(process.env.GIPHYTOKEN)

const searchForGif = (gifName) => {
client.search('gifs', {"q": gifName, "limit": 1})
.then((response) => {
   var gif = response.data[0].url;
   return gif;
 })
 .catch((err) => {
  return err;
 })
}

module.exports.searchForGif = searchForGif;```

[ionic dawn]

@blazing ravine it does

If you ever worked with the youtube api is kinda the same

[blazing ravine]

oh

[ionic dawn]

Searh something, get number of objects and select the property you want

In your case you want the img url I guess

I think theres a guide at giphy

[slender thistle]

Are you...

creating a client on each sent message?

I'd suggest attacking one MongoClient, attach it to the bot object as a property and then use that property

[drifting wedge]

me?
its supposed to level up the user

like xp+

[slender thistle]

And you are creating pointless clients instead of using just one

[drifting wedge]

wdym?

[slender thistle]

    cluster = MongoClient("this is right")
    db = cluster["db1"]
    collection = db["db1"]

This is in your on_message, so you are creating a new MongoClient each time a message is sent

[drifting wedge]

oooh

so how can i just not create a new one?

make it global?

[slender thistle]

I'd suggest attacking one MongoClient, attach it to the bot object as a property and then use that property
@slender thistle

[drifting wedge]

so make it global?

[ionic dawn]

Im on my phone rn mate

Cant help @blazing ravine

[blazing ravine]

ok

[slender thistle]

In your bot's main file,

bot = commands.Bot(...)
db = MongoClient()
bot.col = db["db1"]["db1"]```

Then, in the cog, use self.bot.col

You could use also find_one instead of iterating over returned value from .find

[drifting wedge]

1 sec

@slender thistle

im using client

should i replace all the "bots" with client?

[slender thistle]

which client

discord.Client?

[drifting wedge]

like im using client intad of bot

[slender thistle]

Then how are you using cogs if discord.Client doesn't support cogs

[drifting wedge]

like client.command

not bot.command

[slender thistle]

Ah, the variable

Yeah

[drifting wedge]

yea

wait @slender thistle

wut do i put in the commands.bot(...)

?

[slender thistle]

Don't you have that line already

[drifting wedge]

1 sec

mango_url = "url"
cluster = MongoClient("u tried")
db = cluster["db1"]
collection = db["db1"]

so just make these global?

[slender thistle]

Define "global"

[drifting wedge]

like just put that on the main file

[still merlin]

I'm trying to make a mute command, And a friend of mine who is testing can still talk, His only role is muted, is it because of the @.everyone role?/permissions, The role has send messages permission denied

[drifting wedge]

so i can pull from anywhere

[slender thistle]

Yes, the main file

And attach them to the commands.Bot object (client variable)

[drifting wedge]

@still merlin 1. make it so everyone and muted cant talk

[slender thistle]

Is the send messages permission ticked for the everyone role?

[still merlin]

But this bot isnt being used for custom servers, This is a moderation bot im working on with 30+ guilds

[drifting wedge]

wait wut?

like attach it?

[still merlin]

Is the send messages permission ticked for the everyone role?
@slender thistle yes

[slender thistle]

the green tick

then that's the issue

Allowed permissions overwrite the denied ones

@drifting wedge https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/751046022460997702

[drifting wedge]

oooh

so i would put mango_url = "url"
cluster = MongoClient("sneaky boi 6000")
db = cluster["db1"]
collection = db["db1"] in the ()?

[slender thistle]

n

[drifting wedge]

@slender thistle

so how would i attach it?

i saw

the message

but i dont understand it

[slender thistle]

I'd recommend going over OOP both in general and in Python

because my snippet does attach the collection to the bot object that you will later use

[grim mesa]

Shard 1's Client took too long to become ready.

can we help me pls?

[delicate shore]

wtf

also I use bot instead of client

[split hazel]

Try increase the timeout in client options

[nimble kiln]

    partials: ['MESSAGE', 'CHANNEL', 'REACTION'],
    disableMentions: 'everyone'
});```
Did I do this right for disabling ateveryone? It still pings it ![thonk](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/684488556844154905.webp?size=128 "thonk")

[delicate shore]

Try increase the timeout in client options
@split hazel how ?

Sorry i am new

[drifting wedge]

db = MongoClient()
bot.col = db["db1"]["db1"]``` shivaco told me to do this

[delicate shore]

to sharding

[pale vessel]

it's allowedMentions

[drifting wedge]

wut does it mean lol

[pale vessel]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/typedef/MessageMentionOptions

[nimble kiln]

@pale vessel disableMentions takes these arguments tho

[pale vessel]

lemme check

[nimble kiln]

I mean I can do it the other way around, but I dont see anything wrong with what I did

[pale vessel]

same

[nimble kiln]

huh

you're disabling everyone and allowing it in the same eval

[delicate shore]

@split hazel pls help my won't go on

[pale vessel]

allowedMentions actually pings them but at the same time not

[delicate shore]

bot*

[pale vessel]

i have to disable that

disabledMentions just escapes it with a zws

it'll look like this: @pale vessel

but it doesn't ping

[nimble kiln]

Ok I'm confused

[slender thistle]

zws is a zero-width-space

[nimble kiln]

^thanks

[pale vessel]

works

i didn't need to disable my allowedMentions, it won't ping anyway lmfao

i'm so retarded

[nimble kiln]

I just wanted to disable everyone tho

Why didnt it pick that up 😄

[pale vessel]

works for me

[nimble kiln]

    partials: ['MESSAGE', 'CHANNEL', 'REACTION'],
    allowedMentions: ['roles', 'users']
});```
This seems to "work" - It now returns an Invalid Form Body-error when everyone is mentioned

oh I think I'm understanding it wrong I guess?

I'll test around a bit

[pale vessel]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/typedef/MessageMentionOptions

[nimble kiln]

oh oops

[pale vessel]

if you want to disable for all, just add an empty array for users

it'll work for roles too

[pale vessel]

which isn't what you want...

[nimble kiln]

I guess this works? const client = new discord.Client({ partials: ['MESSAGE', 'CHANNEL', 'REACTION'], disableMentions: 'all' });

[charred geyser]

does anyone know how to chsnge the default location of the bots automatically created role

[slender thistle]

I doubt that's supported

[charred geyser]

like for example this is how my bot "MEE69" comes on a server

[pale vessel]

@nimble kiln everyone didn't work?

[charred geyser]

but it lacks the permission to change "Members" nicknames

becuase they are above it

(node:28169) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions

[pale vessel]

most bots create a new role below their highest position and delete their old one

[nimble kiln]

@nimble kiln everyone didn't work?
@pale vessel Yeah, everyone didnt work as I wanted it. And the user mention still worked

[charred geyser]

most bots create a new role and delete their old one
@pale vessel ok thank you

[pale vessel]

edited

[charred geyser]

oh

wdym below their highest position?

[pale vessel]

let's say a bot named mee69 creates a new role to for example change their color. they would create a new role under their role

and use that instead

[charred geyser]

but that wouldn't allow it permissions over Member

[pale vessel]

if they have the permissions

[charred geyser]

MEE69 has admin

[pale vessel]

if not, then it can't do that

[charred geyser]

Member doesn't

so the command that i get ''DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions" for is a command that changes all nicknames in a server to whatever you put after the command

[pale vessel]

all? 👀

[charred geyser]

but it only works if i manually move the MEE69 role above the Member role

not all but all except admins

[delicate shore]

Please guys

Error [SHARDING_READY_TIMEOUT]: Shard 0's Client took too long to become ready.

[charred geyser]

    message.guild.members.cache.forEach(member => {
        if(!member.hasPermission('ADMINISTRATOR')){
            member.setNickname(nick);
        }
    });

@pale vessel this is pretty much what it does

and nick is ``` let nick = message.content.slice((settings.prefix + "nickmass").length)

[pale vessel]

what role does this?

[charred geyser]

but if i run it when the MEE69 role is at its default location it doesn't have permissions

[pale vessel]

i see

[charred geyser]

only when moved

[pale vessel]

that's because it can't modify any roles that are higher than it, even with admin

member is higher than mee69 in this case

[charred geyser]

yeah

[pale vessel]

it's the role hierarchy

[charred geyser]

so how do bots deal with that?

generally

[pale vessel]

you have to deal with it

make the bot's role highest

or at least after administrator

[charred geyser]

yeah

so i just have it create a role on joining a guild

is it able to create roles higher than itself?

[pale vessel]

nope

that would be abusable lol

[nimble kiln]

So I dont know what I did differently, but after a few more restart this works now

    partials: ['MESSAGE', 'CHANNEL', 'REACTION'],
    disableMentions: 'everyone'
});```

[pale vessel]

i'm not sure if that would work since i have no idea what position discord puts for new roles

but if it doesn't have the perms, just send a message telling the owner to move the position manually

i'm sure there's a better way to do this though

[charred geyser]

yeah

i guess i can but that in the message when it joins

a guild

i finally managed to make my database and start logging settings into it

[delicate shore]

it says recommended shards 1

but it is still on 0

why

[pale vessel]

because shards start with 0

[delicate shore]

yes but it says 0/1

[pale vessel]

oh

shrug

[delicate shore]

:(

[nimble kiln]

It says recommended shards: 1 for me too

Shard 0 is your "1" shard, so yeah. Flazepe is right

I can't explain why it shows 0/1 tho ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[delicate shore]

okie

[quartz kindle]

shard id 0 out of 1 shards

i know its confusing

but thats how it works lul

[charred geyser]

there is data in my database 😄

it shouldn't have an extention i think

[weak rain]

ok

[delicate shore]

Hey @quartz kindle thanks but one more thing
I have the 2 main files
index.js - Sharding one
bot.js - My bot one

So in package.json do I change main to bot.js or leave it index.js only ???

And second thing
I use pm2 for monitoring
So do i do pm2 start index.js or pm2 start bot.js

[digital ibex]

because a config.json doesnt exist in the directory u provided @weak rain

[pale vessel]

@delicate shore the sharding one

[weak rain]

its open but @digital ibex

[pale vessel]

your sharding one starts the bot script

[delicate shore]

@delicate shore the sharding one
@pale vessel for which thing first ques or second

ok

both

what

in your eval command, you should check if the result of eval returns a promise or not

if it is, await it

[fringe axle]

he can't find the module

[weak rain]

but

i listed it properly

:/

[charred geyser]

@weak rain as we said before ../ goes back and ./ is in the dir

[fringe axle]

@weak rain where is your config and where's the file with the ../config

[charred geyser]

are you sure it should be ../

[weak rain]

@fringe axle

[fringe axle]

Yea

[delicate shore]

but i am not missing

[fringe axle]

And your file with the config require?

[weak rain]

[charred geyser]

where are you requiring it

[weak rain]

like wdym

[sonic lodge]

i meant await the promises in the code for your bot's eval command

[charred geyser]

where are you saying ../config

what file

[fringe axle]

In what file?

Where is this file?

[sonic lodge]

drop.js

[fringe axle]

Where is drop.js

[sonic lodge]

if you are in: Thunder\commands\music\drop.js
then config.json is supposedly located at: Thunder\commands\config.json
^ that's what you're trying to find atm

[weak rain]

no

[sonic lodge]

where is it located?

[weak rain]

its open

just in Thunder\config.json

[vale garden]

hellooooo
i have a question

client.on("message", function(message){
    console.log(`message is created -> ${message}`);
});```
like how this does something when one message is sent
is there a way to have a function that excutes after x messages

lol

[sonic lodge]

that's the problem

it should be ../../config.json to go back two directories

[weak rain]

oh

[vale garden]

cansomeone

help me

[delicate shore]

Can anyone help me with the question I asked above

[vale garden]

same

brooo

thats my old pfp

[charred geyser]

multi

[vale garden]

lol

[sonic lodge]

i meant await the promises in the code for your bot's eval command

[vale garden]

wat

[charred geyser]

add a counter

[vale garden]

how

like in the brackets?

[charred geyser]

let counter = 0;

[vale garden]

oh

[delicate shore]

@sonic lodge i even did in the code itself

[vale garden]

jj

[delicate shore]

did not work

[vale garden]

*kk

[sonic lodge]

@vale garden try channel.awaitMessages()

[charred geyser]

then after every log do counter++;

[vale garden]

wait what

which one

[sonic lodge]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/TextChannel?scrollTo=awaitMessages

[charred geyser]

if counter = whatever do this

[vale garden]

ok thx

[delicate shore]

bot.shard.fetchClientValues('guilds.cache.size').then(console.log);

I use bot so do I need to change Client Values to BotValues

[pale vessel]

depends on what you're trying to achieve

[sonic lodge]

no

[pale vessel]

it's a function name lol

[delicate shore]

but it resturns a p[romise

[pale vessel]

await it

[delicate shore]

returns* promise*

[pale vessel]

and flatten it if you need to

[charred geyser]

just do bot = good;

ez

i wish it was that easy

[pale vessel]

use .then()

[delicate shore]

do i need to use async in eval also

[restive furnace]

no

[pale vessel]

remove await and add the send method inside .then()

then(e => message.channel.send(JSON.stringify(e)))

don't put e in ``

that would be object Object

[delicate shore]

don't put e in ``
@pale vessel where?

[pale vessel]

nm i read it wrong

[delicate shore]

ok

[pale vessel]

add one more )

[delicate shore]

i tried

did not work either

[pale vessel]

what didn't work?

[delicate shore]

wait whaat

undefined???

[restive furnace]

because it is undefined

try this.client.guilds.cache.size

[delicate shore]

try this.client.guilds.cache.size
@restive furnace but i am using ClientValues

[pale vessel]

no [@restive furnace]

[sonic lodge]

doesn't eval() return the return value of the last expression

there is no last expression

[delicate shore]

So???

[sonic lodge]

there's nothing to return at the end

[pale vessel]

it's correct

[delicate shore]

So what should I do now ? ;-;

[sonic lodge]

what i mean is

[pale vessel]

it's not the same as eval

it's running it for each shard

and return it as array

well, it's kind of like eval

but not like let x = xxx

it just runs that code

[sonic lodge]

it's not about fetchClientValues, it's about the actual eval function

[pale vessel]

so guilds.cache.size is valid

oh

lmfao

that shouldn't matter

[delicate shore]

:(

[pale vessel]

it's supposed to send a message

[delicate shore]

I am so done

[sonic lodge]

did it send a message

[delicate shore]

no

[pale vessel]

check console

[delicate shore]

Ok

nothing

[sharp swift]

How can i add a picture to my bot's description? Someone told me I need to learn how to code with html or css

[pale vessel]

you can use markdown

[delicate shore]

Can I do something like const bot = new Discord.Client()
const client = bot

will they both work same

[pale vessel]

what

[sharp swift]

you can use markdown
What is markdown?

[pale vessel]

it's what you use on discord, `**hello**` etc

[sharp swift]

ok thx

[delicate shore]

what
@pale vessel can i use bot and client both as same

[pale vessel]

![text](url) can be used for images

[delicate shore]

const client = new Client({
  disableMentions: "everyone"
});
const bot= client;```

[pale vessel]

it's the same

discord defines it as client internally

[delicate shore]

so i can do bot.login and client.login also?

[pale vessel]

yes yes

[delicate shore]

it will be same

K thanks

[pale vessel]

this is why you would usually name your client as client

since having your client defined as bot and accessing something like guild.client would be confusing

but that's just how it works

[delicate shore]

ok thnx

But @pale vessel what should I do of my other issue

[dusky mason]

lol noob pfp

i edited that pfp btw

[earnest phoenix]

Uhhhhh

[dusky mason]

yeah i know off topic

im just mentioning it lol

[pale vessel]

the fetchClientValues() one or the shard process exit one?

[delicate shore]

the fetchClientValues() one or the shard process exit one?
@pale vessel Yo I resolved the promise and idk how it worked this time thanks

[vale garden]

hi

can someone tell me how you can send messages to a specific channel on a specific server

lol

[thick gull]

so, timers usually end when the bot restarts correct? how would I avoid this

[ionic dawn]

Thats a good question

[digital ibex]

use a database

[ionic dawn]

Or run the timers outside the bot

[vale garden]

can someone tell me how you can send messages to a specific channel on a specific server
plz help

lol

[sudden geyser]

What library are you using

[ionic dawn]

Select guild and channel

[vale garden]

how

do i

[ionic dawn]

fetching by id

Djs or py?

[vale garden]

ok

js

but like how do i do that

[ionic dawn]

Look at discord.guide to get channels and guilds by id

[vale garden]

could you explain a bit more

kk

[ionic dawn]

Its pretty easy

Just read about it in djs docs

[vale garden]

no but the thing is

how do i make it send after getting the ids

[ionic dawn]

Define the channel and the guild

[vale garden]

kkk

ill see

tehre

lol

*there

[ionic dawn]

Like

chn = get by id bla bla
chn.send(bla)

And the guild has to be before that

Test and fail, thats the best way to learn

[pale vessel]

docs*

[ionic dawn]

After read them

[pale vessel]

but yeah it does have predictable abstractions

[vale garden]

bot.on("message", function(message){
    bot.channels.get(`718760245014298654`).send(`${message}`);
});

is there something wrong here

[pale vessel]

cache

[vale garden]

oh

ohhhh

thnx

[pale vessel]

that looks like some huge logger lmao

[object Object]
[object Object]
[object Object]
[object Object]

[vale garden]

bot.channels.cache.get?

[ionic dawn]

v12 is full of .cache

[vale garden]

cuz that isnt working

[pale vessel]

yes

[vale garden]

lol ik

it isnt working for some reason

[ionic dawn]

<Client>.channel.cache.get(channelID)

[vale garden]

thats what i did

id in quotes right

[ionic dawn]

Whats the error

Yea

[vale garden]

no errorit just isnt working

[ionic dawn]

[pale vessel]

bruh

[ionic dawn]

do
const chn = (the thing)
chn.send("Hi")

[pale vessel]

that's the same

[vale garden]

hi im back

i fixed it nvm

[ionic dawn]

Its channel

Not channels

Typo

[earnest phoenix]

How do i make my bot send welcome messages?

[opal plank]

which language/library?

[earnest phoenix]

discord.js

[opal plank]

listen to guildMemberAdd event

it'll return a member object

you can just send the message onto the member guild with the message

[earnest phoenix]

Oh no, member objects, i give up

[opal plank]

you dealing with an OOP lang and you afraid of objects?

what

[earnest phoenix]

I'm new ;-;

[drifting wedge]

who can help with mongo?

[weak rain]

My bot exits vc playing music

[opal plank]

start with objects intro then

thats like, the whole point of an OOP

its the super basics

[weak rain]

[opal plank]

@earnest phoenix https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_objects.asp

[weak rain]

and goes offline

[earnest phoenix]

Aight, thanks Erwin, i'm trying to learn as much as i can 😄

[opal plank]

np mate

we all start somewhere, dont be shy to ask

[weak rain]

@opal plank u know anything?

[opal plank]

[weak rain]

nd then sends this

before going offline

[ionic dawn]

When the guildaddmember event is sended you can take the user info and send something to an specific channel using client.channel.cache.get(id)

@earnest phoenix

[opal plank]

who needs linters anyway

[ionic dawn]

Like an embed with the username/avatar/welcome message

[opal plank]

@ionic dawn its not guildaddmember

i pointed out taht already

[weak rain]

[ionic dawn]

Whatever the event name is

[opal plank]

https://ptb.discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/751087066183499918

you just repeating

[weak rain]

;-;

[ionic dawn]

Didnt read your message

👍

[opal plank]

[weak rain]

Hey Why Ignore

[opal plank]

cuz this isnt #memes-and-media

[weak rain]

i asked

;-;

@opal plank

[ionic dawn]

He mentioned by using sticker

[opal plank]

of course i dont know everything, theres quite a few things i need to learn as well

[ionic dawn]

What a god

[weak rain]

hm

[opal plank]

im going to start meta stuff soon hopefully

[ionic dawn]

Thunder

You using ytdl?

[weak rain]

Yes

[ionic dawn]

Do you have a queue?

[weak rain]

queue limit or command

[ionic dawn]

Music queue

[weak rain]

No

[ionic dawn]

The audio starts playing and then crashes?

[weak rain]

after 10-20 seconds

it crashes

bot too

[ionic dawn]

Can I see code?

[weak rain]

yea

[ionic dawn]

Also, do you have an error handler?

[weak rain]

Yes

[ionic dawn]

And how is it crashing

[weak rain]

no

[opal plank]

[ionic dawn]

What

[opal plank]

imagine having an error handler and crashing

[weak rain]

wait

i m saying this

.catch error one

[ionic dawn]

[weak rain]

after crashing logs -->>

[ionic dawn]

Send hastebin

[ionic dawn]

Yeah that crash log is a mess of ytdl

[weak rain]

oh

[opal plank]

arent you using opus?

[weak rain]

so what should i do

[ionic dawn]

First, hastebin the code

[weak rain]

music.js

or commands

https://hastebin.com/icomiwexax.cpp

[opal plank]

i hate that my linter does this

make one line

[vale garden]

hi

[ionic dawn]

is there any difference between ytdl-core and ytdlDiscord?

im not using the "Discord" one

[vale garden]

so this is used to log all messages from my bot guilds

 bot.on("message", function(message){
    bot.channels.cache.get(`751089331560775691`).send(`> **${message.author.username}** >> ${message} \n`);
});

how do i make it not log its own messages

[opal plank]

oh god

fam

[vale garden]

me?

[opal plank]

i sure hope your bot isnt public

[weak rain]

yes

[opal plank]

[vale garden]

lol

[digital ibex]

an if statement

[vale garden]

it isnt but why

see this does work

[opal plank]

good cuz thats a good way to get ratelimited

[vale garden]

 bot.on("message", function(message){
      if (!message.author.bot) {return}
      else {
    bot.channels.cache.get(`751089331560775691`).send(`> **${message.author.username}** >> ${message} \n`);
      }
});

[opal plank]

no need for {}

[vale garden]

whats that tho

[opal plank]

that'd remove bots

not self

[vale garden]

ok but still not working

[ionic dawn]

[opal plank]

also its a true statement not false

if (true) return

[vale garden]

oh

lmao

im dumb

lol

[opal plank]

if(!false(true)) return

[ionic dawn]

@weak rain back with you, did you know if theres a difference between packages?

[weak rain]

wdym

[ionic dawn]

ill give a look at your code to see why crashes anyw

[opal plank]

@vale garden also message is an object

if you want to send contents of the message, use message.content

otherwise you sending the whole object stringyfied

[ionic dawn]

wdym
@weak rain ytdl-core is a package, and ytdl-core-Discord is another

[weak rain]

hm

[ionic dawn]

probably based in the same but with discord stuff

anyway ill see the code, brb

[weak rain]

[thick gull]

use a database
@digital ibex I don't wanna ping the database and check if its time every time a message is sent or every few minutes. Should I check the database every X minutes?
Or run the timers outside the bot :realstate:
@ionic dawn How would I do this?

[ionic dawn]

@weak rain my head is like

[drifting wedge]

how do i add commands to cogs?

using py

[weak rain]

[slender thistle]

@commands.command()
async def cmd(self, ctx, etc):

[ionic dawn]

@weak rain also, it does change the way to work with it, [https://www.npmjs.com/package/ytdl-core]

[drifting wedge]

thats not working

[weak rain]

[drifting wedge]

wait\

it is

9im just dumb

[digital ibex]

running timers outside the bot is no different from running it inside the bot bc they’re both processes, also could cause some memory leaks if ur using it as database, also only complicating things since you’d have to do stuff with ipc and stuff. you use setTimeout so you dont need to check the database at all. what you’d do is something like:

<add db stuff here to save the time>
const time = <time in ms from db here>
setTimeout(() => {
      console.log(“time to remind them. the time has ended”);
}, time);

im on mobile so there may be slight mistakes i’ve accidentally made

@thick gull

[drifting wedge]

discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'meme' raised an error: TypeError: cogs must derive from Cog
sys:1: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Command.call' was never awaited

wut is this/

[digital ibex]

await it

[drifting wedge]

where?

[digital ibex]

before where its erroring, same line

[drifting wedge]

well i dont know where

[vale garden]

hi

case 'lol':
      bot.on("message", function(message){
      if (message.author.bot) {return}
      else {
    bot.channels.cache.get(`751089331560775691`).send(`> **${message.author.username}** >> ${message} \n`);
      }
});
break;

so this is the command i mae

made

so it takes people's messages and sends them in another channel

[pale vessel]

oh lord

[vale garden]

so does anyone know how i can make a command which stops this

lol

wat

[pale vessel]

use awaitMessages() or createMessageCollector() please

[drifting wedge]

me?

[pale vessel]

multi

[opal plank]

ohmy god wtf

an event listener on a switch case?

@vale garden

[vale garden]

oof my connection

wat

[opal plank]

you dont do that

[vale garden]

broo that doesnt matter

lol

[opal plank]

it does tho

[vale garden]

just tell me how do i stop it

why

[opal plank]

cuz u adding event listeners onto a switch dude

[vale garden]

yea wdym

[opal plank]

switch im assuming is based off something you fired

probably an event

[misty sigil]

is that a message logger I see

[slender thistle]

@drifting wedge class Meme(commands.Cog)

[vale garden]

well see switch case is being used cuz i use it for my command handler

[opal plank]

then you saying when this happens, listen to this.

you arent sending anything

[vale garden]

wat

[opal plank]

it'll just start listening

[drifting wedge]

@drifting wedge class Meme(commands.Cog)
@slender thistle i have class meme(commands.Cog): def __init__(self, client): self.client = client

[vale garden]

ik

[opal plank]

just remove bot.on()

dont do a listener inside a switch

[vale garden]

why tho

[opal plank]

why u even got that there?

[vale garden]

ok i still dont get it

cuz

[slender thistle]

And how are you loading that cog

[vale garden]

switch is used for my cmd handler

but

eh idk why i didnt just make a file

well i will

i was just testing here

[opal plank]

dude, other way around

[vale garden]

whatt

me

?

[opal plank]

listen to event, once event is fired, THEN you get a file to handle it

[vale garden]

oh

kk

[weak rain]

is music great for a bot?

[vale garden]

so basically

[opal plank]

the listeners need to be always declared on most cases

[weak rain]

or this will be okay

[vale garden]

bot.on("message", function(message){
if (command === "lol") {
      if (message.author.bot) {return}
      else {
    bot.channels.cache.get(`751089331560775691`).send(`> **${message.author.username}** >> ${message} \n`);
      }
});
}

like this?

[opal plank]

yes

[ionic dawn]

@weak rain I have this so far

[vale garden]

kk

but can you tell

[opal plank]

dont do an event listener on an if, do the logic INSIDE the listener

[earnest phoenix]

E

[vale garden]

me

how i can stop it

like after executing

[weak rain]

@ionic dawn Pro

[opal plank]

add some logic, set a variable or something

[weak rain]

I seriously need Srcs

for music

[ionic dawn]

the queue is fucked and Im workin on another thing so

[opal plank]

let stop = true;

if(stop) return;

[vale garden]

can i like

see

[opal plank]

there, it'll stop

[vale garden]

can i like

make a timer

like

if there are no messages for x secs

it stops automatically

[opal plank]

of course

[vale garden]

if so, how

how do i

[opal plank]

just add the logic for it

[weak rain]

do u have any src @ionic dawn

[opal plank]

2 variables and one set interval

[ionic dawn]

ive watch a ytdl video

and used the youtubeAPI

[weak rain]

OwO

[vale garden]

or instead

can i like just stop it from sending

by a command

[ionic dawn]

youtubeAPI prevent to force people to use links

user searchs are easier and more comfy

[opal plank]

let stop:boolean = false;
let mCount:number = 0;

setInterval(() => {
if(mCount < threshHold) stop = true;

}, timer)

bot.on('event' () => {
if(stop) return;
//logic
})

@vale garden

[vale garden]

alr let me see

[opal plank]

something simple like this would be automatic

though it would stop and never restart

if you want a trigger, like a command, just adjust a variable

[vale garden]

oh yea

nice

thnx

[opal plank]

[misty sigil]

say I wanna play a 24/7 stream from a url — how would I do it using FFMPEG?

[opal plank]

im legit about to go on github cause a second pandemic i shit you not, ive never seen such a shit library and api merged together to create this one monstrosity that we call Twitch

thats it

no trace

no log

no info

just hey, i error, have fun

and then just stops

[drifting wedge]

And how are you loading that cog
@slender thistle ext load

[misty sigil]

the ffmpeg stream stops eventually

[thick gull]

any """""""""""free""""""""""" hosting is either:

1. not intended to be used as hosting for bots
2. not actually suitable for hosting for bots
3. not actually free
4. will get your token stolen
5. all of the above

got it

[sweet kestrel]

[misty sigil]

any """""""""""free""""""""""" hosting is either:

1. not intended to be used as hosting for bots
2. not actually suitable for hosting for bots

if your gonna keep using heroku use a remote database, it MIGHT work

[opal plank]

everytime someone adds the bot it sends a massive wall with an ad to your vps

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix does it do it automatically?
