Why doesn't ts await message.guild!.members.kick(user); kick the GuildMember? The error is
"Property 'kick' does not exist on type 'GuildMemberManager.'"

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

Nah, my assignment says x must be 5

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

Well you're getting Abs() which wouldn't be needed then if youre doing a sqrt
yeah?

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

Try message.guild.kick

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

ok

#

Now it doesn't exist on type 'Guild'

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

(Abs(1 - x) ^ (1 / 2))
did you mean?
(Abs(1 - x)) ^ (1 / 2)

#

assuming Abs is absolute value

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

#

oops

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 6:58 PM

🙂 you're welcome

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 6:58 PM

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

still doesn't work though

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

Then break you're calculations down into steps
And debug that way
Set breakpoints and check the results along the way with what you do on paper or whatever

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

The "IDE" points at x^(1 / 2), the very first calculation in arr(1)

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

your* but who really asked/cares

sonic lodge Sep 12, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

what is x

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

better make sure x is positive

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

5

#

It's a constant

sonic lodge Sep 12, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

..interesting

#

you sure it's not changing somehow right before that line?

slender thistle Sep 12, 2020, 7:03 PM

#

Unless my multiplications that only rely on x somehow edit it, I don't think that's an issue?

#

It's equal to 5 before the first exponential operator used on it

#

🤔

sonic lodge Sep 12, 2020, 7:07 PM

is this of any significance

Stack Overflow

type-declaration character does not match declared data type

I keep getting this compile error based on the code below and I cannot figure it out for the life of me. Can you guys see what the problem is? It highlights the "p" when I go back to debug.

Someone knows a package or API to know the status of a ARK server?

nope

opal plank Sep 12, 2020, 7:13 PM

@ember lodge you need to use steam api for that

i tried using gamedig but it doesn't work

opal plank Sep 12, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

i dont think theres an open api for touching ps4 servers that you can acess

#

most of this stuff should be handled by ps4/microsoft servers

#

ive used the steam api to connect to ark servers before, but not on console

#

text

#

number

#

string

#

int

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

so hex

earnest phoenix Sep 12, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

yes . . .

#

didn't know it is hex

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

a character's encoding is just representations of hex

#

Do you know what the encoding is?

earnest phoenix Sep 12, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

nope

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

do you know if it's even a character?

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

is the text "1101101001 "

earnest phoenix Sep 12, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

string

#

@faint prism yes

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

You could try ascii

earnest phoenix Sep 12, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

a is a character

#

right ?

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

a is a character
the hex representation is 61
the decimal representation is 98
and the octal representation is 141

earnest phoenix Sep 12, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

so i have to convert it to number then convert it to hex

#

bin => number => hex

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

binary is just one of the representations

#

it's actually easier to go from something -> binary -> something else

#

so going from binary -> is fairly simple

separate the discord bot logic from the website. host the discord bot on your computer and host the website on some cheap hosting somewhere.

misty sigil Sep 12, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

no

#

thats a bad idea imo

#

its better to have the dashboard and the bot integrated

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:34 PM

#

Well you can integrate via a custom API

charred geyser Sep 12, 2020, 7:35 PM

yeah they both connect to the same db

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 7:35 PM

your website shouldn't make discord api calls

it should only access the db.

faint prism Sep 12, 2020, 7:35 PM

separate the discord bot logic from the website. host the discord bot on your computer and host the website on some cheap hosting somewhere.
@proven lantern I'd consider architecting it like this

unless you want the bot making db calls directly as well

you would need a node app, and most free web hosts dont allow those

Hi everyone. I moved my bot from Heroku to Vultr VPS to avoid the dynos reset putting it to sleep. I start it with nohup node bot.js command. But it still stops every few hours. Anyone here experienced with that? Trying to run it 24/7

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 7:46 PM

charred geyser Sep 12, 2020, 7:47 PM

yeah my website is a node app

then do i just buy a domain?

you could access your own api directly from your vps ip

maybe because you need a guild user?

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:03 PM

I can't just use client.user?

#

I have to use guild.member is what you are saying

#

 const reason = args.length > 1 ? message.content.slice(
      message.content.split(/\s+/)[0].length
    ).trim().slice(args[0].length).trim() : "No reason provided"; // Reason as a "greedy string"
  

  await member.ban(reason);```

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 10:06 PM

maybe member.ban({reason})

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:07 PM

but its a promise, so I have to use await

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 10:07 PM

with await

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

oh

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 10:07 PM

just put reason in an object

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

I don't understand how or why that works, but ok

proven lantern Sep 12, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

it's the same as member.ban({reason:reason})

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

Then finally, why does this return an error at ${member.tag}: ```ts
const banConfirm = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor("#00ff00")
.setTitle(${member.tag} has been banned by ${message.member})
.setDescription(Reason: ${reason});

message.channel.send(banConfirm);```

#

I can take .tag off and it works just fine

split hazel Sep 12, 2020, 10:09 PM

Members don't have the .tag property

#

Users do

i havent used much cpanel but from logic you should be able to point your domain to the servers ip where cpanel is hosted on and add it to cpanel

if you add a domain to cpanel it should guide you through the process

sudden geyser Sep 12, 2020, 10:25 PM

What's with the exclamation point in client.user!

#

And you should check where you try connecting/logging in with your bot (.login(token)).

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

have you heard of TypeScript?

sudden geyser Sep 12, 2020, 10:27 PM

I've heard of it, but I didn't know it had that operator.

#

Also i login after the client.on("message")

sudden geyser Sep 12, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

Are you sure the token is valid? You could also listen to the debug event and log the trace to see what's going on internally

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

https://paste.mod.gg/zahapixabo.js

#

:wheeze: his token changed somehow, I never changed it

#

still isn't going online

sudden geyser Sep 12, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

Even if you didn't explicitly change it, there are other reasons your bot may not be online. Like I said, could you listen to the debug event and log the trace to see if something interesting is going on internally.

Also can you try console.log(process.env.TOKEN) just to make sure it's there (but still try what I said above)

opaque hawk Sep 12, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

How do I listen to the debug event

how should I avoid making database calls every message & why? I see it being said often here

sudden geyser Sep 12, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

Why?
You'd be asking your database for data on every message. As your bot grows in servers, the message activity will grow as well. You could be receiving hundreds of messages every minute. Databases are strong, but they're not immune.

How?
When you request something from your database, cache it in memory (such as a map). Look up the data in the map before you hit the database (repeat step one if you hit the db). Caching will put pressure on your app's memory instead which is the downside.

you can't overwhelm a programs cache memory even if you wanted to purposefully, memory exists for a reason

I don't think you're supposed to call .event()

ohh

OMG

IM STUPID

#

Ive used python for a year and i forget thatlike omg im retarted

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:19 AM

#

Nobody has any clue as to how long my bot will be rate limited lmao

#

Just hope it ain’t indefinite

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:21 AM

#

If you send an HTTP request to the /gateway/bot endpoint and look at the headers, you can see how long the rate limit lasts.

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:26 AM

#

Oh neat

#

I’ll need help with that just like everything here

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:28 AM

#

curl -I <url here>

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:29 AM

#

Ah

#

so for my repl would that be

#

curl -I https://Rick-Astley-Bot--archigan.repl.co/gateway/bot

#

Correct

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:30 AM

#

noop

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:30 AM

#

oh

#

Uhh

#

idk

#

What would it be then

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

It should start with Discord's API base URL. In your case, https://discord.com/api/

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

Then

#

Client ID?

#

or no

#

Or is this similar to the REST API

#

.

-dottumpostum

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

-dotpost

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

It is rest. You send an API request to the endpoint and see what you get. In this case, it should be 429 since you got rate limited. The base URL is what I posted above, then append the /gateway/bot part as the endpoint.

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

Ok

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:35 AM

@client.event

  with open('users.json', 'r') as f:
    users = json.load(f)

  await add_experience(users, message.author, 5)
  await level_up(users, message.author, message.channel)

#

it just keeps updating the json to 5

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:35 AM

#

I don’t Python

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:35 AM

#

i changed my level to 10 and it changed it back to 5

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:35 AM

#

I didn’t know that you could use JSON with python

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:35 AM

#

really?

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

JSON was made for JavaScript, no?

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

Im not sure

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

It has it in the name

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

i dont use javascript

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

JSON can be used for more than JS.

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

I guess it is also used by C#

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

JavaScript Object Notation

#

So it was made for js

#

Btw, anyone know python?

#

to help me lol

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:38 AM

#

My first language was python and now I know nothing of it lmao

#

and now python

#

and im trying to learn js and java

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

something's wrong, i can feel it

📎 unknown.png

#

Actually, I know something is wrong, but i dont know where to put what

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

When you say "keeps updating the json to 5" do you mean it always stays at 5 or it only updates by 5.

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

stays at 5

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

Yerrin remove the /bot part at the end (mistake of mine) and make sure you're running that on the project which got you rate limited (repl)

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

like, i changed my level to 10 and i sent a message and it want back down to 5

opaque hawk Sep 13, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

ah

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

my repl keeps running for some reason

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

From my perspective, it looks correct. Unless update_data's if condition was always returning True, causing it to create a new entry for your user data, I don't see the issue (or level_up is doing something weird).

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

Yea

#

Well how would i fix that

#

As i am quite new to the api

#

i have no idea how XD

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 3:50 AM

#

You should try debugging it to see what's causing it to always stay at 5. See what functions are being called and aren't being called (in update_data and add_experience). I also don't know if using JSON as a database is the best choice of design, especially since you're doing it on every sent message.

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 4:14 AM

#

@sudden geyser its update data returning true

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 4:17 AM

#

I think it's trying to invert user.id because you specify the not keyword before it. Try doing this instead: if ... not in ...

dense nest Sep 13, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

if user.id not in users:

#

?

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 4:18 AM

i was able to run this on fedora and once i switched to Zorin OS i started having this problem (Zorin is made off of ubuntu)

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 4:28 AM

#

The first one is because the syntax isn't in Python 2. discord.py requires Python 3 (3.5.x I think).

The second error means it couldn't find the module discord, which would mean it wasn't installed somehow, but you say it only happens on Zorin. Did you do anything different between the two

restive notch Sep 13, 2020, 4:30 AM

#

i dont believe so as i legit just coppied the Joke-Bot folder and put it on a drive to move to zorin so if anything it would be a package thing

sudden geyser Sep 13, 2020, 4:34 AM

and import discord is a module from a package
