development

[earnest phoenix]

By log i think he meant "send"

[opal plank]

which you can then use after its been collected

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah sorry

I did mean send

[opal plank]

weird design to add delay but okay

[silver lintel]

also you need to log in with your token or nothing will work

[earnest phoenix]

But what's the main issue tho I'm confused

[opal plank]

idk what they want to accomplish either

[earnest phoenix]

No issue I just don't know how to get it compatible with discord. Like to make the actual bot work. I have the code but not anything else

The bot doesn't respond? Not online? Command not working? Error? Unexpected behavior?

[opal plank]

Rolan, here

[earnest phoenix]

No issue I just don't know how to get it compatible with discord. Like to make the actual bot work. I have the code but not anything else
@earnest phoenix I see

[opal plank]

@earnest phoenix https://discordjs.guide/

[earnest phoenix]

Just make the bot login, that's all you need

[opal plank]

you seem to be absolutely lost when it comes to discord bot making

read that

[earnest phoenix]

I don't know how to do any of this from my phone and how to get the token into termux. Or how to make the actual bot work

[opal plank]

read

[earnest phoenix]

TERMUX

[opal plank]

the

guide

i

sent

[earnest phoenix]

oh my god sMn

termux for bot hosting is like using a butter knife to cut a iron bar

[silver lintel]

const canvas = Canvas.createCanvas(512, 512);
    const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
    ctx.fillStyle = hexCode;
    ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

how do i save the canvas as an embed thumbnail not an attatchment?

[opal plank]

post it somewhere and grab the link

[earnest phoenix]

^

to send it in an embed, you have to first upload it somewhere, get the url and use that url in the embed

[opal plank]

yup

[silver lintel]

:( ok

[earnest phoenix]

upload it to some trash channel in a server you own and grab the link from that message to use in the embed, for example

You don't have to actually send it and grab link

[opal plank]

you need an url

thats all

[earnest phoenix]

No

[opal plank]

embed thumbnail doesnt resolve on buffer

[earnest phoenix]

MessageEmbed
.attachFiles({ attachment: ctx.canvas.toBuffer(), name: "Something.png" })
.setImage("attachment://Something.png");```

[opal plank]

ACTUALLY

it does

[silver lintel]

oooooooooooo

wait it works, tysm volrtex

[earnest phoenix]

Np

This is my first time making a discord bot. I have the code and it should run. But I need somebody to walk to through getting everything into termux. I tried reading a guide but I'm still lost. Can somebody help me out with this. It will take a bit but it's my only chance as of now

[opal plank]

Why you so keen on termux?

[earnest phoenix]

Because the only way I can run this is on my phone

[opal plank]

why u rinning it on the phone?

[earnest phoenix]

Because it's the only way I can run it

[opal plank]

use a vps dude

[earnest phoenix]

He is going on the paths i have come around

I don't have a pc or anything

[opal plank]

hmmm

@faint prism

[earnest phoenix]

And I don't know what a vps is...

[opal plank]

give the man a class on how to run bots on mobile

[earnest phoenix]

<Wait aren't i the mobile dev>

They were trying to help me earlier but it took forever to instill

[opal plank]

auger is the one RUNNING the bot on mobile

i believe you are only CODING on it

(unless im wrong)

[earnest phoenix]

I have to do both ;-;

I have ran a bot several times on my phone 5 months ago

[opal plank]

then you might wanna get some tips from voltrex rolan

[earnest phoenix]

So wait? Running the bot requires your phone being open on that program?

Yes

This is my first time doing something like this

You said you had Termux right

Yes

[opal plank]

im assuming your phone will have to be repurposed for bots

[earnest phoenix]

So do you have node installed

I don't know how to set it up or anything

[opal plank]

unless theres something that allows for background tasks to be running

[earnest phoenix]

And I downloaded node. Not installed it yet

apt upgrade -y

I don't know how to

Run this command

[opal plank]

aight, im off to work on the discord metric board now

[earnest phoenix]

It says nothing installed

0 for everything

Screenshot?

K now
apt install nodejs

It says it's already at the newest version

Are you on your bot's folder?

The directory

I havnt set up anything I just opened the app

I don't know where I am

cd <path>

Path should the directory to your bot folder

[faint prism]

@faint prism
@opal plank why the ping

[opal plank]

some brave soul attempting mobile bot hosting/coding

[faint prism]

ah

[earnest phoenix]

Something like cd /sdcard/bot

That makes the folder right?

[faint prism]

cd changes directory

[earnest phoenix]

No it accesses it

Ok

But before that

termux-setup-storage

[faint prism]

@earnest phoenix Remember when I said to learn some bash?

this is why

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah

I setup storage. Now so I do the cd command

Now do cd /sdcard

Then ls

Hm?

Do I need an sd card in my phone?

No

Second one was correct

The one that returned no response

Ok

Do it again?

Yes

And then do

ls

ls shows the files in that

Blue

Is your bot folder one of those?

I don't have a bot folder. I don't know what it is

I don't know what I'm supposed to have or what I'm not supposed to have

The hell, where did you store your code then

It's not stored. I wrote it on my Chromebook but it's my school Chromebook so I can't host from there

Umm, import it from there to your phone?

Like with an sdcard or something

It's literally just written in codeacademy

It's only 20 lines of code

I don't know. I've never done this before

codeAcademy?

Is that code from there or you wrote it

Yeah it's just a website. I wrote the code in the middle of a lesson

I wrote it

I mean, why not just send the thing from your chrome book to your phone

The code files

I don't have a file of it and I don't know how to make one

Is there a software I need to make the file?

[digital ibex]

email it to urself

[earnest phoenix]

And another thing is that I can't download anything

How did you write code if you didn't even have a file

I can write the code out by hand. I don't need to email it to copy and paste

In code academy you don't need a file period and you can't access the one that you coded into

Long story short I don't have a file and the only way I can make one is from my phone. How can I do that

Wait a second, you wrote the code on code academy website?

Yes. It does not run there as it has some discord stuff

Well time to rewrite that code again that you wrote on Code Academy

[split hazel]

do you even know what you're doing

[earnest phoenix]

Not really. I have the code but when it comes to actually making it into a bot I'm lost

He is a bit confused but he's got the spirit

[split hazel]

are you trying to make a discord bot and host it on codecadamy preview?

[earnest phoenix]

I also have to make something that can get my token but I haven't created the bot account yet. I do know how to format that though

And no I'm not hosting it there

But I wrote the code there because it has some good color coding

[split hazel]

whew I was worried

[earnest phoenix]

He's trying to host his bot from termux but he wrote it on there

Well sad, rewrite it on a code file now

How do I do that

Make a new folder and then a new file with the extension of .js

And rewrite it in there

Um..

Where do I do that

You do that with a file manager app

I'm really new. I have been working for 2weeks to write the code. Andit's going to take me a little bit to get the file manager app

Is there a specific app I should get?

Wait I figured it out

What do I name the folder?

Whatever

Just your bot's name

I just named it bot

Although it's going to get confusing when I have more than one

K now inside of that, make a new file

Called index.js

It's not letting me make a new file. Only folders

So I need to download something to let me do that?

Show me

Inside of your folder

Well uhh

;-;

Download a file manager like File Commader

[split hazel]

just watch a YouTube tutorial on how to make a bot on android honestly

[earnest phoenix]

And get to a roadblock at the end

What a great idea

[split hazel]

this channel exists 😫

[earnest phoenix]

I'm a smol boi so my parents have to approve the file manager

[carmine summit]

if ((message.content.toUpperCase().includes('.ORG') || message.content.toUpperCase().includes('.GG') || message.content.toUpperCase().includes('.COM') || message.content.toUpperCase().includes('.LY')) && !message.member.hasPermission('ADMINISTRATOR')) return message.delete()
```hmmm any way to make this  lot shorter?

[earnest phoenix]

Why the hell to do that

Well not smol smol but not tol

if ([".ORG", ".GG", ".COM", ".LY"].some(element => message.content.toUpperCase().includes(element)) && !message.member.hasPermission("ADMINISTRATOR")) return message.delete();```

[carmine summit]

Bruh

i cannot understand any of that

[earnest phoenix]

Basic JavaScript

It's loops right

Absolutely incorrect

No it isn't that is for

Heck

[carmine summit]

so the arrays, became element?

then loops 4 times

????

[earnest phoenix]

I confused you sorry

It iterates through the array prototype to check every element applying to the given function, binding and checking if any of them comes out as true

[carmine summit]

what does .some do?

[prisma oriole]

What he just said

it's similar to .forEach

[earnest phoenix]

Yea but not exactly, because forEach isn't supposed to return a boolean @prisma oriole

[faint prism]

@earnest phoenix

[carmine summit]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[earnest phoenix]

I'm here

[prisma oriole]

yeah, forEach just does the iteration, .every and .some return booleans by the nature of their usage

[carmine summit]

sure i know forEach

just learned it yesterday

[faint prism]

That screenshot is all the commands I did to run it

[split hazel]

is there a good use case for for each nowadays

[earnest phoenix]

His issue is currently not being able to make a file to write his code

[split hazel]

it's quite slow and limited (you can't break and continue)

[prisma oriole]

you can use .every or .some for that

but yes it is slow

that i agree

[split hazel]

I did a performance test on loops once I think for each was second last

[earnest phoenix]

The only use for js Array.prototype.forEach() is you being too lazy to do an actual for loop

But this also resolves promises at the end if any given as a parameter

But any given function for it to bind through every element, it's way too slow

Bind takes some time

[split hazel]

I'm quite surprised for of is a bit slow as well

[earnest phoenix]

Well that shows why forEach() is useless

Bind doesn't even take a millisecond but for each fucks it up

[ancient falcon]

When I try to import a module from the ones installed on my computers through pip, it only works if I run the python file with the python.exe so python myfile.py works but myfile.py throws an importerror does anyone know why that happens, why doesn't the interpreter check site-packages when calling the file like an executable

[earnest phoenix]

Rip bind

[fervent goblet]

how do i check if there are 3 numbers in my array that are the same?

so if 3 out of 5 numbers are the same return true

[fervent goblet]

ahhh alright thanks

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix or

U can use regex

In an array?

No

For (let x = 0; x< array.length; x++){
For (let y = 0: y < array.length; y++){
For (let x = 0; z < array.length; y++){
If (array[x] === array[y] =={ array[z]){
Let sameNumber = true
}
}
}
}

Hehehe

For the website url

It's not completely formatted but it works

I dunno that's what I learned

That's the most inefficient way

Yup

But it works

Not for all types of arrays

True

[faint prism]

@earnest phoenix did you get the bot running on termux btw?

[earnest phoenix]

No. I still need to get the file because it's taking forever for my parents to approve it

[faint prism]

?

what

[earnest phoenix]

Long story

[faint prism]

Add me as a friend and I can probably walk you through it

[earnest phoenix]

@faint prism does .net work eith C#

[faint prism]

yes?

.NET includes C# lang

[earnest phoenix]

Is .net like

A lang

[faint prism]

No

[earnest phoenix]

Or just framework

[faint prism]

It's a software framework

yeah

[earnest phoenix]

I see

[faint prism]

Lotta good stuff in there

I'd compare it to nodejs, but it's a bit more than that

A lot more really

Long story
@earnest phoenix I've got a bash setup script for you to get you started

I made it for termux bot deployments

[earnest phoenix]

Que

[fervent goblet]

@earnest phoenix it does not work

i wanted to check if there are 3 of the same numbers in the array

not 3 numbers = 3

which then the code you gave me would return true

[ionic dawn]

gif-encoder-2 and canvas are destroying my mind

[earnest phoenix]

@fervent goblet Are you sure about that

[fervent goblet]

yes

i tested it several times

[earnest phoenix]

Here's a copy of my code, try again

let someArr = [6, 4, 6, 6, 2];

someArr.map(e => someArr.filter(element => element === e).length).sort((a, b) => b - a)[0] === 3;```

[modest smelt]

hey i have a questin

is anyone here good at json?

[earnest phoenix]

Maybe

[opal plank]

@modest smelt state your question already

[thick gull]

https://dontasktoask.com

[low shard]

Someone know how to do like when you starting live on YouTube it’s notification in any channel

[opal plank]

Youtube auth is absolutely a hassle for that

im unsure if Youtube provides webhooks though

worth a google @low shard

[low shard]

👍

[opal plank]

Does DJS have an all events listener?

Hmm this is annoying

having to create a listener for each event is such a pain

[faint prism]

why listen to every event?

[opal plank]

metrics

measure amounts of events received on the websocket

Jesus christ this is one girthy commit

[faint prism]

tfw this is the smallest chess game script

@earnest phoenix https://github.com/DoorThief/termux-discordbot-setup

[earnest phoenix]

Did you just make that?

[opal plank]

yes, in 10 minutes

[earnest phoenix]

And also how do I use it

[opal plank]

actually

wtf

i was kidding

[earnest phoenix]

No @faint prism I'm confused. How to use that. Also you are awesome

[faint prism]

No @faint prism I'm confused. How to use that. Also you are awesome
@earnest phoenix

that's a bash command

you run that

or you can type out this:

#!/bin/bash

#Setup project folder
mkdir bot
cd ./bot/

#Install dependencies
apt update && apt install -y nodejs
npm i -g pm2 && npm i discord.js dotenv

#Scaffold bot
printf "require('dotenv').config({path: __dirname + '/.env'})\nconst Discord = require('discord.js');\nconst client = new Discord.Client();\nconst token = process.env['DISCORD_TOKEN'];\nclient.on('ready', () => {\nconsole.log(`Logged in as ` + client.user.tag);\n});\nclient.on('message', msg => {\nif (msg.content === 'ping') {\nmsg.reply('Pong');\n}\n});\nclient.login(token);" > index.js

#Set token
while [ -z "$token" ]; do
    printf "Enter bot token: "
    read token;
done

#Write token
echo "DISCORD_TOKEN=$token" > .env

#Start bot service
pm2 start index.js --watch
pm2 monit

[modest smelt]

what is that for?

chess?

[faint prism]

chess?
@modest smelt this ? https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/758499715389587478

If so, yes

[modest smelt]

yes

ok

nice

[faint prism]

The smallest someone has ever implemented chess in JS

[modest smelt]

Also how do i make a new folder through python

what i want to do is that when my bot joins a guil

guild*

it will make a folder such that it will be formatted like this:

[faint prism]

JSON is data, not something that can actually do anything

[modest smelt]

guild.id.json

sorry

i mean python

do u know?

[faint prism]

I mean

https://bfy.tw/PA4H

Just google it tbh

oh wtf

lmgtfy is swamped with ads now

[earnest phoenix]

there google search api probally is unpaid now

[faint prism]

That's fucked

Basically unusable

[earnest phoenix]

the one i have for my discord bot gets the ads too

@faint prism I'm here. What's next

[faint prism]

Is your bot online?

[earnest phoenix]

Lemme check

I can't figure out how to add it to my discord

;-;

[fast trench]

Rip

[faint prism]

Lol well it works for me

[earnest phoenix]

Its online

[faint prism]

Nice

Now you're hosting from your phone, the development you'll have to figure out on your own though

[earnest phoenix]

How do I write the code it doesn't let me type

[faint prism]

nano

[earnest phoenix]

?

I can't figure out how to type

When I have everything set up but I don't know where to put the code

@faint prism what's my next step. Where do I put the code

[faint prism]

index.js is the bot

use nano to edit it

[earnest phoenix]

Where do I put that and what's nano

[faint prism]

man nano

oh wait

[earnest phoenix]

It's not letting my type at all

[faint prism]

termux might not have man

nano is an editor

[earnest phoenix]

Oh ok. So do I need to download nano?

[faint prism]

nah should be already in termux

[earnest phoenix]

Then how do I access it

[faint prism]

nano is like notepad for a CLI

nano <the file name>

[earnest phoenix]

I can't type anything

[faint prism]

you're in pm2 monit

You need to exit it

press CTRL and press c

that exits a program

[faint prism]

yup

[earnest phoenix]

What's next

[faint prism]

you're back to the terminal

[earnest phoenix]

Ok so how do I edit it

[faint prism]

so type nano and the file name

[earnest phoenix]

What's the file name. ;-;

I didn't make a file

[faint prism]

the script did
type ls to list files and folders

do you see the .js file?

[faint prism]

cd bot/

then ls again

[faint prism]

yep

do you see the .js file

(it's kinda hidden by your keyboard in the screenshot)

[earnest phoenix]

Index.js?

[faint prism]

yep

nano index.js

that's your bot script

[faint prism]

yep

CTRL and X will exit and ask if you want to save

[opal plank]

linux on mobile?

[faint prism]

That's all you need to know for that

[opal plank]

👀

[earnest phoenix]

What's next tho. ^0

[faint prism]

linux on mobile?
@opal plank termux but yeah. Android is based on it

[opal plank]

interesting

[faint prism]

What's next tho. ^0
@earnest phoenix That's it really, your bot is running

[earnest phoenix]

Wait what about my code?

How do I add it?

[faint prism]

by typing something

I'm not going to help you develop the bot. But I got you set up since you didn't have a PC 👍
It's up to you to learn Javascript and improve the bot

[earnest phoenix]

Ok. There's already some ping pong stuff. Do I take that out?

[faint prism]

Like I said,
https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/758513565073670144

Here is where you can learn JS https://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp
Or look up JS tutorials on youtube

[fickle arch]

I had error saying voice is not defined 🤔

[faint prism]

interesting
@opal plank sorry, Android is based on Linux. So creating an emulator for it isn't too much of a stretch. Termux is more of a chroot iirc

[opal plank]

ponmg

oh i see

Termux sounds awfully familiar to Tmux

[fickle arch]

TortureMux

[opal plank]

im using tmux on my host

its okay

[faint prism]

Well, ones a chroot and the others a terminal multiplexer. Not really similar :kekw: but yeah

[opal plank]

once you get used to it its infe

ah i see

As you've noticed, im no linux expert whatsoever

[faint prism]

You might be able to use tmux inside of it actually

I know you can use screens

[opal plank]

wdym?

tmux technically terminal no?

[faint prism]

Yep!

tmux technically terminal no?
@opal plank no

It's a terminal multiplexer

Basically that means it's creating windows for multiple terminals inside of one giant window

Really useful for SSH sessions

[opal plank]

i misread what you said

[faint prism]

So you can just have one SSH session and multiple terminals opened essentially

[opal plank]

I know you can use screens
misread as 'i know because you use screens'

thats precisely what i use it for

not having to navigate everywhere

[faint prism]

I exclusively use screens at the moment, I don't know how to use tmux

[opal plank]

its quiote simple actually

see that bottom bar?

[faint prism]

But it's On my to-do list, just like vim

[opal plank]

0, 1, 2, 3

those are the windows

[faint prism]

Sweet

[opal plank]

simply right click them

thats it

[faint prism]

Wha

[opal plank]

yeah really

look

[faint prism]

Tmux supports mouse?

[opal plank]

yeah theres an option

fuck lemme grab it

[faint prism]

Woah

All good I get it

[opal plank]

set -g mouse iirc

[faint prism]

I was intimidated by the key combinations

[opal plank]

its pretty dope tbh

[faint prism]

It's just a straight-up gui lmao

[opal plank]

basically yeah

you can use it without mouse

but holy fuck does having a mouse access make a difference

[faint prism]

Doesn't that need key combinations though

[opal plank]

it does

you need to type the command once to enable tmux to use mouse

[faint prism]

Yeah, that's the part that turned me off of it. With screens all I had to do was control A and then press D

Then it was just commands to reattach to sessions

[opal plank]

ctrl + b

[faint prism]

?

Are you saying that's equivalent

[opal plank]

not quite

to get the mouse

[

ctrl + b then type that command above i sent

boom, gui with mouse

[faint prism]

Ah

[opal plank]

such a lifesaver for a scrub like me who uses windows

[faint prism]

To be honest, Linux isn't as bad as you think it is. A lot of it works the same as PowerShell TBH or Windows batch

Talking about bash I mean, not Linux

[opal plank]

yeah i get ya

[faint prism]

Or SH, or zsh

[opal plank]

im used to terminals

its just that i much rather have a gui

[faint prism]

Lol I kind of like CLI more

[earnest phoenix]

all operating systems are terrible
the real bois use machine language straight instead of a middleman operating system making it easier

[faint prism]

I don't know what's wrong with me lmao

[opal plank]

the only issue with terminals is learning all the syntax

[earnest phoenix]

the only issue with terminals is learning all the syntax
@opal plank disagree

[opal plank]

powershell and cmd are almost exactly the same

though stuff like linux has its own thing going on

[faint prism]

all operating systems are terrible
the real bois use machine language straight instead of a middleman operating system making it easier
@earnest phoenix have fun managing interrupts and multiple tasks at once

[earnest phoenix]

lol don't bring me back to 1947

[faint prism]

powershell and cmd are almost exactly the same
@opal plank PowerShell is surprisingly advanced. It actually uses some similar libraries I use in C sharp

[earnest phoenix]

*1956

What do I do here?

second generation computers

I'm trying to save

[faint prism]

Ffs

[opal plank]

i used powershell for most of my things tbf

[faint prism]

Token leak

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix god job you leaked the token allow me to copy

[opal plank]

go reset ur token

[earnest phoenix]

NEVER LEAK THE TOKEN

else bot death

I'm resetting

[opal plank]

we now going to login into it and send free nitro to everyone

[earnest phoenix]

;-;

Ok what do I do tho

[opal plank]

reset it

go to the portal and refresh token

[earnest phoenix]

I already did

[faint prism]

Ok what do I do tho
@earnest phoenix and then make sure you update your bot script with a new token

[earnest phoenix]

I mean to save the code

@earnest phoenix please store tokens in seperate files instead of directly storing it in the place where you're doing bot.login()

[opal plank]

hardcoding tokens = big nono

[faint prism]

I mean to save the code
@earnest phoenix CTRL and X and then press Y when it asks you to save

From inside nano

[earnest phoenix]

I mean to save the code
@earnest phoenix remove your keyboard from the computer, use a complex version of OTG to connect it to your phone then press Alt + F4

[opal plank]

or ctrl + o and then ctrl + x

[faint prism]

Yeah wtf

[earnest phoenix]

I did and it gives me a bunch of options

[faint prism]

My bot script was using an environment variable, why do you change it to hard coded?

Lol

Voice to text

[earnest phoenix]

I know. I accedentsly deleted that and didn't know how to add it back on

[opal plank]

coding while talking

hmmm

[earnest phoenix]

My butt script was using an environment variable, why do you change it to hard coded?
@faint prism seems like the word botum has got control of your mind

[opal plank]

thats an idea right there

[faint prism]

Good luck linting that

[earnest phoenix]

But what do I do with the options

[opal plank]

prob a very bad one at that

just screech LIIIIIINT and it formats it for you

[faint prism]

Linterize it

[earnest phoenix]

What?

[faint prism]

I was talking about something else

[earnest phoenix]

It's telling me to enter more stuff before I save

But I don't know what it means

[opal plank]

maybe have done too many gauges

oh god, metrics for days

ALL THE METRICS

[faint prism]

But I don't know what it means
@earnest phoenix watch a YouTube tutorial on how to use nano

[earnest phoenix]

I just wanna save

;-;

[faint prism]

It should only ask you two questions

Do you want to save?

And where do you want to save it?

The first one you'll say yes

The second one should default to the same file that you're editing

Ie You just press enter

[earnest phoenix]

Ok thx

[opal plank]

aaaaaaaaah i wanna push the update already

need to wait for host to come back

[faint prism]

Your script should look like this, don't replace the token line. You need to edit the .env file to update your token there

@earnest phoenix

nano .env

[earnest phoenix]

It's working

The bot

:)

just screech LIIIIIINT and it formats it for you
@opal plank i tried but my computer crashed

There's a problem

The bot spams the final command

And doesn't stop

Anyway I can fix this?

Nvm

I fixed the error

Do Google Calendar reminders work even when the webpage tab is closed?

Neat

I wonder if mine will get accepted,

[sweet ruin]

Hello, I am trying to make level role rewards command

but i dont know how to make it fully custom

so members can set the level they want in the database and the role

but add multiple levels and rewards

[lunar yew]

My bot is VERIFIED!! 🙂
@feral aspen how long did it take?

[feral aspen]

2 weeks!

[lunar yew]

wow

2 weeks to get it in 75 plus server?

[feral aspen]

No no no, 7 months for that.

[lunar yew]

WOW

[feral aspen]

😂

[lunar yew]

oh god

im only at 30

and i need it by the 7 of oct

@feral aspen

[feral aspen]

Good luck! 🙂 I hope you success.

[lunar yew]

ty

wait i cant get my bot verified after the 7 right? @feral aspen

[feral aspen]

Nope

It will close.

[lunar yew]

oh god

pls help me people

2 WEEKS

OH NO

PLS

HELP

[earnest phoenix]

yeah my bot is gone lmao

no way to get it verified in 2 weeks

[carmine summit]

client.on('messageReactionAdd', (client, data, message) => {

})
```How can I get the ID of the guy who reacted???

[nimble kiln]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Client?scrollTo=e-messageReactionAdd
messageReactionAdd only has two parameters:

[carmine summit]

right

[nimble kiln]

so if you change it to those, then it's user.id

[carmine summit]

client.on('messageReactionAdd', (messageReaction, user) => {
console.log(user.id)
})
```like this?

[nimble kiln]

yup

[silver lintel]

i might seem really really very dumb by saying this, but how to get a user with an id?

[nimble kiln]

Do you want a user or a member of a guild?

[silver lintel]

user

[nimble kiln]

then client.users.fetch('userid') will get you the user object

userS - typo

If you are using that inside of a command, then message.author should also have the user object

[silver lintel]

i just want something to send to me in dms

to make a command so the bot sends me something

[nimble kiln]

oh okay, yeah then use client.users.fetch('userid').then(u => u.send('Oh hi mark'));

or something similar

3 edits, I am proud of myself

[earnest phoenix]

Can you host a Discord botum on Google Firebase and is it worth it?

Hello

anyone alive?

+ firebase-tools@8.11.0
added 603 packages from 376 contributors in 206.419s

[fluid basin]

as a database? sure
but hosting your bot? prolly no

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[fluid basin]

unless you have the free GCP credits, then you could use the compute engine, but after it expires you will need to host it somewhere else

though I doubt if using the f1-micro always free tier instance is a great idea

[lunar yew]

lmao i host my bot with the server thats under my desk

[fluid basin]

and they only provide 1GB egress of traffic hoho

thats almost nothing but if your bot uploads attachments or images, 1GB won't be enough

[restive furnace]

oh okay, yeah then use client.users.fetch('userid').then(u => u.send('Oh hi mark'));
can't it be #get? since get tries to get from the cache first, then fetch if it did!'t find it from cache.

[fluid basin]

no ones stopping you from that, but if the user is not cache you will need to fetch it anyways

[ionic dawn]

[lime stream]

One again what is the best vps option to host the bot?

[torn ravine]

Depends on size

great options and ones that are highly recommended by the community are galaxygate and contabo

[lime stream]

Okay

Ty

[torn ravine]

To answer your question about a VPS, I currently use Digital Ocean and absolutely love it. Never is down for me, and always works well. I have used Galaxy Gate before, and don't really have a liking for it, but it isn't bad that I would go out and specifically say don't use it. I also have used Vultr, which I consider just as good as Digital Ocean when it comes to setup and pricing(for the lower end). DO has more features than Vultr and GG, though.
Digital Ocean starts at $5 with the following
-1gb of RAM
-1vCPU shared
-25gb SSD
-1TB Transfer(Bandwidth)
Vultr also starts at $5, assuming you want an IPV4 address, with the following
-1vCPU
-1GB of RAM,
-25GB SSD
-1000GB Bandwidth.

Digital Oceans addons include:

• Extra Block Storage, starting at $10/mo for 100GBS
• System Level Backups once a week, stored and retained for 4 weeks, $8.00 a month/20% of the Droplet(VPS) price.
• Many Distros to use, less than Vultr though
• 3 different Container Distros(CoreOS, Fedora Atomic, and RancherOS)
• An absolutely huge marketplace for applications you can put on your VPS
• Snapshots
• Custom Images
• IPv6
• Private Networking
• User Data
• Monitoring
• Many Regions(3 for New York, 2 for San Fransisco and Amsterdam, and 1 for London, Frankfurt, Toronto, and Bangalore) *Subject to change
  All of which are free to use, unless otherwise stated in the above.
  Setup is also a breeze with choosing SSH Keys or One time password, and you can even create duplicate droplets right from there.

Vultr Includes the following additional options

• Auto backups for $2.00/mo(any time, any day scheduled)
• IPv6
• Private Networking

This is just the tip of the iceberg of what both can do, and I suggest one of these guys. If not, you still do have plenty of options, but from my experience, this was my take. Any suggestions or comments please let me know.

I copied and pasted from one of the pins but you get the idea

[lime stream]

Ok ty again

[fast trench]

what do I code into my command handler to make mentioning my bot it's prefix?

[obtuse niche]

Py or js

[fast trench]

js...I've been wanting to for a while but am just now getting to it...this is what I have but it's not even passing this line so i know it's wrong```js
if (!message.content.startsWith(definedPrefix) || !message.content.startsWith(@worn warren)) return;

[obtuse niche]

Ah sorry cant help u im a python guy

[earnest phoenix]

@fast trench so ur just trying to make the commands also respond to the bot being mentioned correct

[fast trench]

right

[earnest phoenix]

try just splitting the content string by spaces

check the first index

see if its the the mention string

or u could use message.mentions i think it was

[fast trench]

ooh didn't know message.mentions was a thing tbh

oh wait yes I did lol

this returns undefined if I do @Wildcat#2712 help

const botPing = message.mentions.members.first();```

[earnest phoenix]

hmm idk im more of a c# guy i only touched d.js a bit

sorry

[cerulean grotto]

How to setup DSL bot

[fast trench]

all good thank you anyway I appreciate it

How to setup DSL bot
@cerulean grotto there's nothing to set up?

But

When I put DSL

Check my server

It isn’t there

Or wait lemme see again

[hazy sparrow]

Is therea top.gg api for voting bots?

[fast trench]

@hazy sparrow #topgg-api

[hazy sparrow]

Alr sorry

[fast trench]

all good lol I was just letting you know there is

[pale vessel]

@fast trench try js if (!message.content.startsWith(definedPrefix) || !message.content.startsWith(`@worn warren`) || !message.content.startsWith(`@worn warren`)) return;

[narrow cloak]

hey i got stuck at node. my folder name to process the code anyone please help

[pale vessel]

<@!id> can also be a mention of the bot has a nickname

[fast trench]

oh yeah I forgot about that option

hey i got stuck at node. my folder name to process the code anyone please help
@narrow cloak wdym?

nope didn't work @pale vessel

[narrow cloak]

i typed coding for my discord how can i process that

[fast trench]

idk what you are even trying to do? run the bot? like turn it on?

[pale vessel]

wait you're using ||

why

use &&

if one of them is false, it'll return

you only want to return if ALL of them are false

[narrow cloak]

idk what you are even trying to do? run the bot? like turn it on?
@fast trench yes i want my bot to online

[earnest phoenix]

make sure that there is a module in that folder

[fast trench]

then you should probably watch youtube if you can't even turn it on

[earnest phoenix]

that has like code for a bot

and all that stuff

lmao

[fast trench]

@pale vessel ooooooh 🤦‍♂️ I'm so dumb...I've had that mistake before lol

[narrow cloak]

make sure that there is a module in that folder
@earnest phoenix yes i downloaded bot module

[earnest phoenix]

wat

no i mean node

node js works off of a package.json and a lock.json if im correct

if there isnt a package.json / lock in that dir u ran node .

it will error out

because it couldnt find a module to run

[fast trench]

@pale vessel nope 🤔 this is odd

[pale vessel]

how do you handle args

prefix length?

do you slice the prefix length before splitting args?

[narrow cloak]

so plese tell me the steps to

[cinder patio]

usually it won't error if there is no package.json / lock.json. If you run a .js file via node file.js it should work, unless it uses npm packages.

[earnest phoenix]

or unless he just messed it up big time but i got no clue

[narrow cloak]

i not understanded what do you mean

[fast trench]

@pale vessel also if the pings are too much just let me know...I don't wanna get buried in the messages loljs message.content.slice(definedPrefix.length).split(/\s+/);

[pale vessel]

if you use mentions, don't you think it's slicing less than it should?

mentions are longer than the defined prefix

[fast trench]

right 🤔

[pale vessel]

so it won't detect the command

[fast trench]

it's supposed to be an alternate prefix though

oh wait...I see the issue lol

[pale vessel]

yes and args depend on the definedPrefix's length

[fast trench]

I don't have it rechecking when I check to see if it's using the correct prefix in the db

[pale vessel]

so change the length if it's a mention

[fast trench]

ok yeah I'm lost

How do I disable a command or a cog in discord.py in a guild? I have moderation and stuff, but I only need music, so how do I disable a cog or command so I cannot use the commands that are disabled?

[fluid basin]

yes stop asking everywhere

[manic plinth]

@fast trench I made a music bot, I wanted to add it to top.gg but I wrote the description or something but she did not accept

[cinder patio]

I didn't know top.gg is a girl. What error did you get? You should get an error at the top of the page

[manic plinth]

Brief Description error

[cinder patio]

Your brief description is probably too short, or too long. The actual error should be below that ^

[manic plinth]

too short

[cinder patio]

Well, come up with a longer brief description

[manic plinth]

okey

it’s also discord.js

[fast trench]

It says what happened...just try to restart it until it works

[white vapor]

tried for a while

[fluid basin]

you can consider making a new instance

if it just refuses to start

[balmy mortar]

how would i put the fields

like

•   -
  

•   -
  

ive been trying

idk how

[white vapor]

is it possible to create a new instance on mobile or do I have to use a computer for that

[earnest phoenix]

@balmy mortar inline

[balmy mortar]

im trying

    embed.add_field(name="**Instagram:**", value="[@trusted](https://www.instagram.com/trusted/)", inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="**Kik:**", value="[BeaM](http://kik.me/BeaM)", inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="**Telegram:**", value="[Boyfriend](http://t.me/Boyfriend)", inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="**OGUsers:**", value="[Beam](https://ogusers.com/Beam)", inline=True)```

which would i make true and false?

[earnest phoenix]

All true

[balmy mortar]

they are all true...

thats what it doees

when they're all true

[pale vessel]

you need to add a blank field but that would look bad on mobile

but if you still need to, you can add a new field with the name and value set to \u200b

add that field after the kik field and set it as inline

[cursive laurel]

So I've been wanting my bot to add a role via mentioning a user ID instead of @ mentioning them as well as mentioning them in the welcome message after granting them the role manually. However I've been encountering a lot of issues trying to get it working.

(I have a basic knowledge in javascript just to point it out)

[green kestrel]

personal comment for the day. i HATE reaction role pagers for help embeds. they never seem to work right, either you cant navigate across multiple pages because after one click of the ▶️ it then ignores other clicks, or theyre just plain broken. Theyre a usability nightmare, you may think theyre cute, but they suck. stop it.

the only thing worse is bots that delete their own help embed with a short timeout while youre still using them!

[rocky hearth]

My one function requires a return type of Promise<number>. How can I return a value say the number 12 like that? I'm using typescript

[cinder patio]

return new Promise<number>(resolve => {
     // code that gets the number somehow
     resolve(number);
});

[rocky hearth]

@cinder patio I don't know it says, its return type is Promise<unknown>

[cinder patio]

new Promise<number>(... sorry

[rocky hearth]

hmmm, thanks. It works

[violet mesa]

discord.py rewright

@bot.event
async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user):
    l = 0
    o = 0
    channel = reaction.message.channel
    if (reaction.emoji == ":white_check_mark:"):
        l += 1
    elif (reaction.emoji == ":x:"):
        o += 1

    if (0==5 and l != 5):
        await bot.send_message("the vote has ended and most of the people chose no")

why does this not work??

can anyone help

[boreal depot]

if (0==5 and l != 5):

my guess is the 0

[placid iron]

You are setting o and l to 0 every time

[violet mesa]

oh

oof

1 sec

async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user, l, o):

can i do this?

[placid iron]

No

[violet mesa]

how can i make it 0 once?

[iron vine]

@golden sinew

[boreal depot]

Are we just ignoring the fact that zero IS NOT equivalent to 5?

[violet mesa]

i changed it

alredy

[boreal depot]

Ok

[violet mesa]

thx

[slender thistle]

Alright

[boreal depot]

np

[slender thistle]

What the fuck

@violet mesa bot.send_message doesn't exist

And besides that, you didn't point to where you want the message to be sent

[violet mesa]

i watched a 2018 vid

lol

makes scense

[slender thistle]

Congrats, it's older than me

[boreal depot]

Didnt they change it?

[slender thistle]

Yes

[boreal depot]

idr what to since i deal with js more so

[slender thistle]

don't refer to random videos for d.py and use documentation instead

[violet mesa]

how can i send messages in events

then?

[slender thistle]

get a channel object, use its .send method

[violet mesa]

im stoopid no yell please

[slender thistle]

you have reaction.message.channel stored in channel var

Might wanna use that

[violet mesa]

ok

i do

i have that saved that as channel

[slender thistle]

aye

channel.send

[violet mesa]

1 sec

[slender thistle]

All messageable objects have a send method

users (members too), text channels

Thanks and sorry i posted in the wrong channel

No worries

[hearty wren]

Guys i accidentally uploaded my bot on github and discord said they had reset the token so i generated a new one and replaced it and committed the changes and pushed it to heroku but now its offline, can anyone help?

[slender thistle]

See Heroku logs

[hearty wren]

Ok one sec

[pale vessel]

did you wait

[earnest phoenix]

did you turn it off then on again?

[hearty wren]

Yes i did too

[green kestrel]

so today you learned that tokens dont belong in your source code, they belong in a separate config file or an environment varaible? 😄

also, .gitignore.

[slender thistle]

Tbh

just use environment variables

[earnest phoenix]

i remember someone told me that a config.json is deprecated

idk wtf that meant

[slender thistle]

same

[hearty wren]

I also learned about workspaces in vs code

[earnest phoenix]

amazing

[green kestrel]

i use a .json config file, which is in my gitignore.... i have too much config to be manageable in environment variables

[hearty wren]

I didnt even wanna push it on github

[green kestrel]

api keys for a whole bunch of apis, two discord bot tokens, a list of server ids...

[earnest phoenix]

bruh two tokens for what

explain

[green kestrel]

a live bot token and a dev bot token

[earnest phoenix]

oh makes sense

[green kestrel]

if i run my bot as ./bot -dev it uses the dev token, otherwise the live

[zenith terrace]

what if I do client.login twice

[earnest phoenix]

but i have my dev bot in a different workspace

[zenith terrace]

with 2 diff tokens

[hearty wren]

I was pushing sth else to my repo that happened to be in the same directory as my bot folder so vs code initialized git for the whole directory including both folders

[earnest phoenix]

so i don't fuck up

[green kestrel]

i sometimes use my live token in my dev environment, in something i call 'test mode'

[hearty wren]

I made a new heroku application and pushed the bot and no errors and logs r perfect but its still offline

[green kestrel]

test mode is live token, with a setting from the commandline flags that makes the bot ignore commands on all but a predefined test server

that way i can test to check the code scales, with thousands of servers, without the bot emitting two of everything

that sort of thing is really worth it btw

[earnest phoenix]

bruh someone sent me a voice mail but i can't even check it because i got no credit

[green kestrel]

just be careful if you do it, that you dont do anything that loops and disables your live token 😄

wait, you pay to retrieve voicemail? what backwards-ass country is that

[earnest phoenix]

UK lol

[green kestrel]

next thing youll tell me you pay to receive sms, like americans do

[earnest phoenix]

unless it's my sim provider

[green kestrel]

time to change provider? O2 doesnt charge me to listen to voice mail

[earnest phoenix]

vodafone are decent

but o well

[green kestrel]

vodafone have the signal strength of a one armed man doing smoke signals at night here

and then theres three... well theyre a joke everywhere

[earnest phoenix]

my signal strength is so bad

[green kestrel]

ive not used voda since the early 2000's, they were pants back then

[earnest phoenix]

imma just not change my sim provider

don't really care about a voice note

oh shit we went off topic lmao forgot this was #development

[hearty wren]

guys i fixed it and working now sorry to bother you

[earnest phoenix]

nice

[hearty wren]

i forgot to add config vars to it on heroku it seems

[silent cloud]

Yo guys

Can somebody help

What is wrong here?

const ytdl = require("ytdl-core");

[earnest phoenix]

uhh what

is there an error

[silent cloud]

Yep

I comment this string and no error

[earnest phoenix]

wdym

what's the error

[silent cloud]

it package.json

"ytdl-core": "^3.2.2"

what's the error
@earnest phoenix idk, wait i check

WTFFFFF

the problem disappeared on its own

[fickle sapphire]

with 2 diff tokens
@zenith terrace Would it change to the other user?

[zenith terrace]

yes it did

I tried 2 bot.logins, it used the 2nd one

[slender thistle]

Wouldn't it run both

[fickle sapphire]

But if you put it like inside a command to switch to a other user..

[cinder patio]

It used the second one because you login via the same Client instance. Create 2 instances and login with each one of them and both of the bots will be online

[feral aspen]

Can somebody explain how there are bots like having discriminators like 2222 or 0009

like WHAT

@earnest phoenix

[slender thistle]

Randomness is on their side

or straight up creating hundreds of bot accounts until they get a cool one

[feral aspen]

Bruh

😂

Wait are you the shivaco mod?

[slender thistle]
