Ngl i wish people who didnt know js or djs would be yeeted from here
@earnest phoenix then i would have never been encouraged by awesome people here that i'm not a dumbass and i can learn programming and 3 months later i wouldn't have been here with a bot with over 2500 lines of code

earnest phoenix
@flint yew You must have executed your command in an unordered way of parameters
That args is message and message is args
Can you show how you execute the commands
opal plank
earnest phoenix
In your main file or whatever
and i have error
@earnest phoenix What's the "error"
opal plank
<channel>.send()
also, method
not property
did u define channel?
ur compiler disagrees
earnest phoenix
client.on('channelCreate', async (channels) => {
const options = await config.get(channels.guild);
const ChannelIDLogs = options.logsChannel;
let embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setTitle('Channel Created!')
.setDescription([
`**-> Channel Name:** ${channels.name}`,
`**-> Channel ID:** ${channels.id}`,
])
.setColor('GREEN')
.setTimestamp()
.setFooter('Time event:')
.setThumbnail(client.user.displayAvatarURL({ dynamic: true }));
const channel = client.channels.cache.get(ChannelIDLogs);
channel.send(embed);
});
@earnest phoenix As you defined channel here, it wasn't able to find that channel from the bot's cache
Make sure the id is correct
flint yew
like i have more then 150 commands
earnest phoenix
Also why to resolve a non promise function?
flint yew
after some updates got many errors
opal plank
try porting everything to TS and then come talk tome
earnest phoenix
await config.get(channels.guild) doesn't return a promise @earnest phoenix
opal plank
earnest phoenix
No need to await

Js: 
i run code;
Ts: 
Nooo you cant do that!throw 872 errors!
earnest phoenix
Js: I run code without inspection to let the developer know what's wrong so they should get along with this and get used to it
Ts: I just throw errors if i see a missing particle in code, or just a semicolon, but it's better to resolve the errors before running them
Ts is better, change my mind
slender thistle
For small scripts JS is fine
earnest phoenix
Find me that single message when i said TS is useless
slender thistle
And I mean, generally if you aren't an idiot, JS is fine. TS just helps you prevent shit with types
opal plank
as a wise man once said, 'Would you rather have silly development errors or insanity inducing bugs in production?'
slender thistle
Why not both?
opal plank
slender thistle
That way you show authenticity
earnest phoenix
Oop-
I said TS is just js with Type Guards, if you not be able to resolve and rewrite a typing correctly, you're stuck
What more should I add?

@opal plank I mean some things throw type errors which their typings weren't written correctly, or as you wanted it to work so you gotta rewrite the typings
More work
But less errors, but stuck if you can't
opal plank
i was joking of course, its bad to have any's floating around
some stuff do need any though

good luck typing an interface with every single country out there that can come from an api request
slender thistle
My type annotations genuinely go fuck-all with dictionaries and lists
opal plank
earnest phoenix
good luck typing an interface with every single country out there that can come from an api request
@opal plank That's the problem with TS
opal plank
you end up having to do key:['string']:something
earnest phoenix

@opal plank challenge accepted and declined at the same time cuz the function was async
you won't get it
opal plank
what?
earnest phoenix
If you're a experienced developer and can write code with mostly no errors at all, JS is completely fine than TypeScript
opal plank
what does async have to do with this?
you can code on notepad too,but having some extra tools help,dont they?
earnest phoenix
I mean they do but TS isn't related to this, is it
opal plank
its strong typed javascript,basically
it gets compiled to js either way
transpiled, i should say
earnest phoenix
Wait does TS even count missing semicolons as errors?
earnest phoenix
vsc is god

worst case scenario you send an sms with your code

earnest phoenix
Sms with codeblocks would actually be kinda cool
opal plank
code with a dial telephone, use 1 and 0 to write in binary if you truly despise your own life
earnest phoenix
Or just make a compiler out of it, to attach a keyboard to it for it to understand human readable code
opal plank
make async code in binary using a dial telephone
i think that goes way beyond self-harm, if you are mad enough to attempt

What does use strict mode in Js even mean i wonder
opal plank
some keywords arent allowed
earnest phoenix
Such as
What does
use strictmode in Js even mean i wonder
@earnest phoenix strict mode?I thought it was obvious
earnest phoenix
"use strict";
// Code```
earnest phoenix
You can obviously use all of those keywords in strict mode that you showed
opal plank
in strict, you cant
i think only my compiler is in strict

yep, compiler in strict

earnest phoenix
Didn't you say you can't use those keywords in strict mode

yup it does catch

earnest phoenix
then?
@opal plank more like.then(reply?: confusion)

You obviously can't use global keywords as variables or function names, i meant what does strict mode do to your js code? Throwing more errors? Increasing speed?
idk wtf i said

with free ones you'll have downtime
or you can host it yourself

check in google for free hosting
royal bane
ok

and the bot goes in a sleep mode 30min after last used

how hours are there in one month?
royal bane
can heroku and i host at the same time?
earnest phoenix
@royal bane you can use aws which is "technically" free

uh?
earnest phoenix
or you can try chaoticdestiny hosting or fatcat hosting they give 1 pterodactyl server for free
royal bane
whats pterodactyl?
royal bane
ok
earnest phoenix
basically you can host your bot there no downtime 24/7
fast loom
can heroku and i host at the same time?
@royal bane you can host at the same time but that will just make your bot send work on commands twice or more every time
so it's not good
earnest phoenix
no search for "pterodactyl server"
royal bane
oh ok
earnest phoenix
ofc if you search just pterodactyl thatll get you the dinosaur

how do u guys add channel related thingy ?
like with command handler we can create a single file for a command and its makes our project easy to manage .Index.js looks clean for that .
but some feature which doesn't need to trigger with bot prefix where u guys code them ? in index.js ?
like in my bot i did something like mod-mail , u dm the bot and bot will post that message in a specific channel , u don't need to use any prefix just type the message .
a counter channel where people just count 1 ,2,3 ,bot just monitor that channel if someone miss a number of post anything else thats not a number
i have another channel monitor in a channel like one-word story ,so if someone try to send multiple word bot will delete that message .
now the problem is as those message don't need to startwith bot prefix i coded them in index.js . i wonder if i increase channels my index.js will get messy
any other way i can follow ?
pale vessel

yes

should i remove the if statement that checks what user is sending the message

faint prism
The if would only execute the code block if it was true.
So, if that's the expected behavior.

its getting past ther so thers no point of removing it

Also, I recommend not hard coding your ID, and instead keep a config file with it inside

how do i debug c# files?
@eternal osprey What are you writing your code in?

eternal osprey
dotnet is not a command
eternal osprey
i aid
faint prism
do you have dotnet sdk installed? lol
eternal osprey
said, that i wanted to look how your program operates.
faint prism
right
You need dotnet sdk to compile and run your C# code
with that, you can tell VSC how to debug it
and then you can set breakpoints and stuff
also that code snippet should be easier to rewrite in Javascript
So, why aren't you just doing that?
eternal osprey
faint prism
yep
eternal osprey
i will write it in j
it is my best language
i just want to see how it operates.
i have downloaded the left one already
faint prism
i will write it in j (js?)
That's a good idea
it is my best language
You're allowed to have that opinion, but i disagree
eternal osprey
i meant js, my keyboard just struggles.
and i don't mean that it is the best language out there
i mean that i know the language the best
faint prism
Ah gotcha
eternal osprey
from all the other ones i know
faint prism
That's how I am with C#
But what I want you to understand is that the concept is the same
thick gull

its the admin backend for my bot, for moderators who maintain the bots database

they kind of know what theyre doing with it, but its still becoming a mess

the blue pops too much imo
blue in some spots is ok but not for all buttons

for me to then revoke that access and restore a backup? 😛

earnest phoenix
@small zenith you'll need to design the whole thing yourself if you're not gonna use any npm package or API
small zenith
ok @earnest phoenix
slender thistle
Python is more consistent and reasonable with its typing at least

Windows Batch is outdated?

java script is literally like scripting java
@restive furnace They are too different to compare really.
js was renamed from MochaScript to JavaScript because at the time Java was really popular

Windows Batch is outdated?
@slender thistle they tell us windows XP batch we use windows 10except me

Not exactly sure what it could be, but let's say an interpreter with dynamic typing for Java projects

Let's just blame being desperate for entertainment during a quarantine...

faint prism
@faint prism Performance can go out of the window. I'm somewhat confident you know I use Python. 😂
@slender thistle Let me tell you about performance. Once upon a time, I wrote a statistics program in bash. BASH. It doesn't even do complex math natively! I had to pipe math functions to a calculation library (bc). Which added an insane latency
slender thistle
🤣 I think you went over that at least once before
faint prism
Couple that with a for loop, and bam. A simple standard deviation calculation takes all night
🤣 I think you went over that at least once before
@slender thistle Glad you remembered 😉

Yeah sure why not ||, other than the terrible latency and large use of data||
For example

That's ignorance, my friend
Someone will always know more 🙂
vague wigeon
uptime 24/7?
faint prism
When was the last time you turned off your phone?
Sure, your bot would go down if you ever lost cell.
But what about having a spare phone running it on wifi?
Shit... that's not a bad idea
That'll have a backup battery...
Cell backup...
And even a better cpu and ram than a rasp pi...

This server is very diverse, but the main part is just students doing development as a hobby

Yupp
I tbh just wanted to apply some new C# design patterns I learned at work, and thought Machine Learning was cool. And somehow ended up making a bot with both of those. And consequentially learned how to use a non-relational database.

.split(/ +/g)
^
wicked pivot
hi, you advise me what as a method to perform a clear user "<prefix> clear @user <number>"
faint prism
That's just attaching JS -> Java. Kinda like how I'm using interpreted C# in my bot's eval using CSharpScript library (Dotnet Roslyn API)
.split(/ +/g)
@shy turret is that not the same thing
regex + is just 1 or more
shy turret
ikr
faint prism
why is it "better"? because it's regex lol?
shy turret
.split(/ +/g) should be good if you !command <args> <a lot of spaces>
it is better in some cases
faint prism
ah. Good point
I see the use now
wouldn't be fun to parse an array of strings that's like [8] or something because someone put a ton of spaces
shy turret
i wouldnt use it if you do -send this message
LOL
What not to do:
message.channel.send(`${args[0] ? args[0] : ""}${args[1] ? args[0] : ""}${args[2] ? args[2] : ""}${args[3] ? args[3] : ""}${args[4] ? args[4] : ""}${args[5] ? args[5] : ""}${args[6] ? args[6] : ""}${args[7] ? args[7] : ""}${args[8] ? args[8] : ""}${args[9] ? args[9] : ""}`);
is here someone that can guide me on webhooks
faint prism
why not? you'd just check if the arr[i] is a command, if it is, the argument would be arr[i+1] and any arr[] after it until another command is found
shy turret
@earnest phoenix what lib or using fetch()
earnest phoenix
discordpy
faint prism
I'd just loop over the array of strings, and construct the command args until I hit another command
slender thistle
which webhooks
earnest phoenix
dbl vote
slender thistle
To quote my message from #topgg-api,
It's literally a webserver listening to POST requests
If you need async webserver, use Sanic or aiohttp.web
if you don't care about async, feel free to use Flask or overcomplicate life with Django
shy turret
im kinda confused how message events work on libs
does the bot just spam GET requests
to discord
slender thistle
No, Discord sends websocket requests to you
shy turret
wait what nani
slender thistle
A Discord bot receives messages and other real-time events over websockets
shy turret
so we get reqs?
slender thistle
Yes, events like message receiving, role updates, etc.
dreamy thistle
.split(/ +/g)

``` this code does everything right, except it doesn't remove the user ID from the clowns constant. I'm confused as to why this doesn't work. Can anyone help?that looks like you're using multiple messages events
faint prism
const Clowns = new Set()
Not sure if that's valid (I don't do JS), but it'll reset the Clowns to empty every time
Is that code block in a function or...?
wheat mesa
Oh
pale vessel
wait didn't i help you last time
wheat mesa
It's in my entire async function
pale vessel
and you did the same thing
charred geyser
lol
wheat mesa
I just moved it cus I was just trying things
it didn't work while it was in the if statement either
I'll put it outside of my function and see if it works
It still doesn't work
this code used to work but I had to change it because I was stupid and used listeners for every command ```javascript
const clowns = new Set() //w!clown command
clowns.add("313481150637277197")
clowns.add("224363077318082561")
client.on('message', function(message) {
if(message.content.startsWith(${prefix}clown)) {
if(!message.member.hasPermission('ADMINISTRATOR')) return message.reply('cant use this L')
if(message.mentions.everyone || message.mentions.roles.size) {return message.reply('Improper mention.')}
let person = message.mentions.users.first()
if(person.bot) {return message.reply('You cannot clown bots.')}
let newClown = message.mentions.users.first()
if(!newClown) return message.reply('You need to mention the user you want to clown.')
if(clowns.has(newClown.id)) {
clowns.delete(newClown.id)
message.reply('removed clown :(')
} else {
clowns.add(newClown.id)
message.reply('new clown in town!')
}
}
})
client.on('message', function(message) {
if(clowns.has(message.author.id)) {
message.react('🤡')
}
})
you're still using two message listeners
charred geyser
lol
wheat mesa
No I'm not using that anymore
pale vessel
why not move the second one inside the first one too
wheat mesa
That's old code that was basically just a test
I don't use that anymore
I'm just saying that used to work and I have essentially the same thing now and it doesn't work in my new code

```gone but never forbotten
pale vessel
await the message or use then. you'll receive the sent message. delete it using <message>.delete() with the timeout option (<mesaage>.delete({ timeout: 5000 })). timeout must be in milliseconds
charred geyser
you can also use ms
if you wanna do like
args in a command
and not just in milliseconds
i mean ms as in the module

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: message.reply(...) is not a function

So my package that I'm making is to get data from my mysql database on my website. Like getting an id of a user then it shows other details about them etc. How would I get it to connect to the MySQL database because if I just insert my MySQL details such as host,user,password etc people can just go in the node_modules file and get info and then login and that would not be ideal at all.
eternal osprey
````message.reply("A private message has been sent to you!")(message.delete({ timeout: 15000 }))```

use javascript or get a backend

discord will temp-ban your bot for an hour if it gets 10,000 invalid requests in 10 minutes from your bot. this includes the "spam" error, 429. right?
doesnt discord.js automatically throttle the client before it begins reaching the 429 error? how come my bot is still getting temp-banned despite having < 100 api errors across 4 days (most of which are "cannot dm user" errors which are unavoidable)
misty sigil
unavoidable? Yes they are, just send everything in a channel

oauth is not too hard
i just
im not sure how to make a website that gets user info like guilds where they have perms and put that into a nice looking ui
you know like
you log in with oAuth and you get a list of your servers
and then you can edit the settings
i wanna do that but i assume that means it has to be a node app becuase idk how tf else to get discord info
