@autumn aspen wait oh

oh
hazy sparrow
What is the use of a eval command
sonic lodge
that's some wow syntax
opal plank
either conditional chaining or check if mentions exist
autumn aspen
yes but show an example how I should put it
opal plank
@autumn aspen https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining
read the docs
¯_(ツ)_/¯
sonic lodge
@hazy sparrow for if you ever want to run code through discord
hazy sparrow
eh
dense nest
So im using a json file to save my server prefixes but when i restart the bot it dosent register the prefixes. And just uses the default prefix. If you do the commamd to change the prefix again it just puts another store in like the first one isint even there
hazy sparrow
So i can make new commands in discord itself?
opal plank
bad idea to have your prefixes in json @dense nest
dense nest
What should I use @opal plank
sonic lodge
you don't use your eval command to develop
hazy sparrow
Bad idea to use json as a database @dense nest
dense nest
How in tf would i use a database
opal plank
eval helps a lot for debugging
hazy sparrow
you don't use your eval command to develop
@sonic lodge no i mean could i?
sonic lodge
as in make an entire command through your bot's eval command lol
opal plank
cuz u can access initialized code
sonic lodge
yes you could make a command
hazy sparrow
like !eval <command code here>
opal plank
can you can branch off from the index to your other files
you basically have the debugger to check the code as it runs and the eval to fetch values and data from stuff your debugger isnt attached to
i highly recommend eval for production
faint prism
How in tf would i use a database
@dense nest A similar way you are using JSON
hazy sparrow
Kk
sonic lodge
why do you want to make commands through discord though
dense nest
@faint prism help? Lol.
sonic lodge
when you have a nice code editor with syntax highlighting and all that good stuff
faint prism
@faint prism help? Lol.
@dense nest just look into quick.db or something
just don't use json for mutable data
opal plank
eval isnt for making code @sonic lodge
its a good tool for debugging
and testing
thats about it
sonic lodge
it's what bow pro is asking for
opal plank
sonic lodge
So i can make new commands in discord itself?
sonic lodge
my reaction ^
opal plank
i guess you could even fancy it up even more and fsWrite() new files with your code in it
¯_(ツ)_/¯
and then require it
sonic lodge
that's massive brain
opal plank
i already have dynamic requires
adding new commands to production easy
put file in
type n.reload
done, everything else is handled internally
the cache is deleted and the metrics are reloaded too
opal plank
not quite
like i said, i just need to put the file there
i use git to do that
even with the production server on
no need to shutdown to add commands
neither for my global handlers nor for the commands
i havent added dynamic gauges nor functions though
YET
im so proud of my handler tbh
All errors are dumped in here
So console spam whatsoever
simply check the dashboard now to check if i had any error throughout the code
fervent goblet
anyone know how to add header when requesting from an api with node-superfetch?
sonic lodge
if you don't mind i'll steal your idea
sonic lodge
do you accept brains
sonic lodge
🍝 🍺
opal plank
sonic lodge
wait that's not my brain
opal plank
Thats not even the tip of the iceberg of good ideas i implemented in the bots tbh
sonic lodge
ok so now i need your brain

const { body } = await request

I have a question
opal plank
i do
modest smelt
i installed SQL workbench
opal plank
but thats the gist
modest smelt
how do i use it?
snow urchin
Why won't my bot start? No error at all, just the logs from handlers
earnest phoenix
Listen to the debug event
modest smelt
@opal plank do u know SQL?
earnest phoenix
@modest smelt google does
earnest phoenix
Then you either cant use google or it doesnt exist
modest smelt
i would say the first one
opal plank
reading the docs and adding a library to bridge over the database and your code
depending on what you're doing, i'd go for postgres
rather than SQL
modest smelt
i just want a database
umbral zealot
MySQL workbench is a client not a server, you still would need to install an actual database server to use mysql.
modest smelt
so what should i do?
umbral zealot
I would strongly advise against MySQL specifically because it's shit to install and run
modest smelt
im looking at w3 schools
umbral zealot
If you just need a database, I'd just suggest using SQLite, since it's actually server-less and easy-ish to install
modest smelt
alr
umbral zealot
it's "just a file" (made the right way, as a true database, just not a server/client architecture)
modest smelt
ill look at it l8er
umbral zealot
And if you really want to make your life super easy, assuming you're in nodejs, check out https://enmap.evie.dev/ (disclaimer: I made this)
misty sigil
nice

mysql can be really powerful if you set it up just right 
but you should use mariadb over mysql as much as possible

autumn aspen
oh thx
opal plank

"When mentioned or some other prefix"
@slender thistle so the prefix is the bot mention or a var
slender thistle
Did you read the docs on what when_mentioned_or does
drifting wedge
yea
autumn aspen
:NGNLKaeriThumbsUp:
@opal plank I tried and it didnt work?
opal plank
i literally showed it working
slender thistle
Did you really
opal plank
slender thistle
What did they say
drifting wedge
it said that i can use when_mentiobed as a event or as a prefix thingy
eternal osprey
in this line: message.channel.send(${statuses.statuses.text})
earnest phoenix
using when_mentioned as an event? 
eternal osprey
it isn't
eternal osprey

earnest phoenix
Did I miss out on a new random update or what
You simply didn't
autumn aspen
@opal plank but dude what u mean drag with what button on mouse bc its only delete the code
eternal osprey
huh
opal plank
statuses returns an array
which doesnt have property text in it
get one of that status you want
from that array, THEN get .text
autumn aspen
@opal plank not erwin show cam mouse and keyboard
opal plank
i told you, hold middle mouse button
eternal osprey
could you provide me a site on how to get it as .text
opal plank
what?
autumn aspen
i told you, hold middle mouse button
@opal plank middle mouse that Im scrolling with
or what
opal plank
you dont get an array as a .text
eternal osprey
the docs for this
autumn aspen
and then
opal plank
drag it around
autumn aspen
yes but what
opal plank
just add spaces manually then
autumn aspen
just add spaces manually then
@opal plank I marked it and now?
so do I press anything
opal plank
you telling me you dont know how to add spaces in your code?
autumn aspen
or hold
opal plank
autumn aspen
:NotLikeMiya:
@opal plank I do
opal plank
then do it
autumn aspen
but ur way
opal plank
press space bar
'my way' aparently is too complicated for you
just do it the old way
and add spaces on each line
autumn aspen
but man what u mean middle button
opal plank
i told you how
middle click and hold it, then just drag it around
I think im happy with the final result
autumn aspen
whats that?
earnest phoenix
opal plank
are you not using a lib that doesnt aht already?
sweet ruin
without lags eh. there is only so much you can do with that
but i mean just do some simple forEach thing
opal plank
client.users should already have cache
bad
forEach prob some of the least performant loops
use for()

Hello all. I am trying to code a command that allows server managers to set roles that are awarded when a member reaches or is above a certain level. I have made the command part of it. but i dont know how to make it so server managers can add multiple role rewards for multiple levels in one command. how do I do this?
opal plank
database
opal plank
| threshhold | role id | server id |
query by server id, select all
then check if the threshhold has been passed
if so, award user
i'd highly recommend NOT doing this on every iteration of message
if you start needed it on a bigger degree, have it stored in memory
use redis or store it yourself
sweet ruin
so currently i have this
opal plank
i dont know mongo, im telling you the framework you should use
sweet ruin
ah thanks
opal plank
Im familiar with the syntax for types and PostgreSQL though
should you not be using primitive types?
sweet ruin
huh?
faint prism
Aren't those privative?
sweet ruin
(sorry legit databases gimme headache even when I understand them)
faint prism
MongoDB has it's own datatype names
faint prism
Those are all primitive
cinder patio
That's TS, are they using typescript
sweet ruin
im using js
cinder patio
In regular JS there is no number
opal plank
dont think so from the looks of it
faint prism
coulda sworn mongodb has number..
faint prism
I mean, objects are fine too
faint prism
an object is an instance of a class
opal plank
auger
faint prism
class is the template for some data structure/functions
object is an instance of that class with values
they go hand in hand
faint prism
class Person // the class ie. "blueprint"
{
string Name;
}
var newPerson = new Person() { Name = "Jeff" }; // an object
newPerson.Name == "Jeff"; // this is true
How do I know how many of the same string are in the json file?
test.json.length?
faint prism
How do I know how many of the same string are in the json file?
test.json.length?
@earnest phoenix no. Length is the amount of characters iirc
For finding the same string you'll need to do some comparisons
opal plank
opal plank
porbably easiest way to explain objects is with examples
its too simple
usually you learn classes down the line
so using it as a comparator is quite hard to grasp
@faint prism
you can do functions directly too
console.log({im_a_property: 'a',im_another_function() {console.log('function')}, im_a_proprity_with_object: {hi:'hi', foo: 'hello'}, im_an_array: ['hi', 'bar'], im_a_function: () => {console.log('honey')}})```how do i add a - before the random number
message.channel.send(Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000000000000000000 + 1))
break;```
dire obsidian
this is only for bots right?
dire obsidian
if this is only for bots
opal plank
'this' what?
opal plank
technically yeah but programming related is fine too
not support for specific bots though
for that you need to dm the author of the bot

Is it possible to change the online status of the bot without a WSS stream to the gateway?
Imma using simple cURL requests time by time to scan channel messages.
I would like show the bot as online in the member list.

is there any way to transfer glitch code to a raspberry pi?

do you mean Glitch website?
drifting wadi
hahahahaaha
opal plank
the legends are true it seems
faint prism
is there any way to transfer glitch code to a raspberry pi?
@stray sinew yes, there is a way to transfer your javascript project to a raspberry pi
But someone else might be more familiar than I am
opal plank
git clone i assume
is it heroku or glitch that uses repos?
either way, just make a repo for it. Worst case scenario, just copy everything from the website manually and save file by file
stray sinew
oh wow ty
its a discord.js
is that allowed?
there isnt any youtube video
oh wow ty

opal plank
Sometimes i wonder what goes thru people's minds to do this ^^
boreal iron
Is it possible to change the bot presence with an API request for example via. cURL?
misty sigil
you need a wss connection i'd assume
boreal iron
Permanently or just once a time like the gateway registration?
opal plank
you mean status?
rich presence isnt available for bots @boreal iron
if you mean DnD, online, invisible, those can be changed after gateway
boreal iron
Yeah just the online status.
boreal iron
Imma simply curling the API time by time with PHP. I don’t need a permanent connection.
But the fact the bot is “offline” is annonying
No library
opal plank
lemme see if i can find the doc for that rq
boreal iron
Ty
graceful dock
Check discord developer docs
earnest phoenix
To remove the bot’s offline status it needs to have a heartbeat
So u need a ws connection
boreal iron
Thought I could easily POST the status to the API for example POST /api/v6/users/@me
earnest phoenix
Nope
boreal iron
Ah ok
Sad for me
Is there a timeout between the heartbeats?
Gonna think about to create a simple JS wss connection just sending heartbeats each second/minute?!

where did THIS come from?
oh my bad
opal plank
yeah thats what i said, update node
earnest phoenix
Thats the command and it dont have fields.flat
opal plank
they said they have
umbral zealot
the discord.js library has array.flat, and it requires node 12.
opal plank
hmmm looks like an outdated file
either discord.js or node
try updating both
opal plank
okay
not the case
umbral zealot
Clearly you didn't install node 12, then. or the bot isn't running on that version. 100% that is the problem.
opal plank
thats same that i assumed
earnest phoenix
let me try something
wanton nova
question about translation, if i'm going to translate the text in the bot, should i translate command names too, or should i leave those the same?
because stuff can get messy with accents and different types of spelling
vernal rivet
I would leave those the same. Tbh having it be one way is easier than having multiple versions of the command name
vernal rivet
Np
umbral zealot
Yes, the prefix would be <@botid> or <@!botid>
(a good regex where the ! is optional would work fine)
opal plank
not sure if py regexes are the same
though ry n.tag regex in #commands @drifting wedge
drifting wedge
also
i think i messaged something up
this isnt working but no errors
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = f"{prefix}" or f"@742831363358589028")```It's <@id> not just @id
opal plank
also !
umbral zealot
yeah but the ! is optional - it will only appear if the bot has a nickname
opal plank
check the command i said in testing 0exe
if the bot has a nickname it wont trigger
cuz it has a ! in it
he's perfect matching
'!a' =/= 'a'
earnest phoenix
it's my node version
earnest phoenix
but I can't update because I'm using repl
umbral zealot
you can define the version in the package.json in the "engine" section
earnest phoenix
wont work
earnest phoenix
repl.it has to update it globally, across all users
"engines": {
"node": "12.x"
},```but it won't update
umbral zealot
I dunno my repl have definitely been on 12.x when I created new ones so it's something that can be fixed.

... the programming language you muffin.
jade pewter
yeah english
earnest phoenix
it's a troll
umbral zealot
This is not a shitposting channel.
umbral zealot
If you don't even know what programming language you're using, we're gonna have a lot of fun.
earnest phoenix
what is the file extension? .txt .py .js .go ?
jade pewter
cpp
drifting wedge
Lol
earnest phoenix
good luck with that
drifting wedge
What’s cpp
earnest phoenix
c++
umbral zealot
yeah I honestly have no idea how to run a cpp program
earnest phoenix
it's a lowlevel language
drifting wedge
Then when ppl need support, I’ll ban them for cursing
yeah I honestly have no idea how to run a cpp program
@umbral zealot ur a bot dev
U know how to code
Oh
Wrong person
umbral zealot
I'm not a C++ dev and I've literally never run a C++ program or written one or looked up a tutorial.
drifting wedge
My bad
earnest phoenix
c++ is not beginner friendly in the slightest, people have around 4 years of education just to master it lol

umbral zealot
yeah you're gonna still wait for a while, Freddy. 6+ weeks of waiting
shrewd glen
yup
umbral zealot
@jade pewter first off, reset your token, because that's your bot's password,
umbral zealot
Second, we have no idea how to run C++ code.
If you don't either, maybe you should choose a language that's not so hard to use
jade pewter
ok
shrewd glen
yeah you're gonna still wait for a while, Freddy. 6+ weeks of waiting
@umbral zealot ive added my friends server and that gets added as soon as you add the server
jade pewter
what is beginner friendly
umbral zealot
javascript and python are
gritty bolt
ok I do java script
@jade pewter look up tutorials for discord.js or eris
jade pewter
ok
gritty bolt
oh well yeah that too
discord.js is the library i'd recommend you look into after you get your bearings with javascript
it's much easier than C++
jade pewter
ok
gritty bolt
python and discord.py are also options but I personally use javascript so I'm more biased towards it
theres lots of discord.js tutorials for when you get there too so I'd just go with that
topaz fjord
it's up to you for which language you want
just make sure you actually learn it
before you start
jade pewter
ok thanks
gritty bolt
yeah

TypeError: Cannot read property 'on' of undefined
I keep getting this when I define by bot in my index.js
module.exports.bot = new discord.Client(({ partials: ['MESSAGE', 'CHANNEL', 'REACTION'] }));```
Then do
```js
const index = require('./index');
const bot = index.bot
bot.on('messageReactionAdd', async (reaction, user) => {```
How do I fix this?this is discord.js btw
jade pewter
Hey cool guy,
Safety Jim here! It appears that the token for your bot, cool bot has been posted to the internet. Luckily, our token-scanning gremlins noticed, and have reset your bot’s token - hopefully before anyone could have maliciously used it!
sudden geyser
It's in relation to you pasting your bot's token here.
Discord will warn you and reset it for you.
jade pewter
oh ok
sudden geyser
You shouldn't give it out publicly because it's like a password.
faint prism
Wow that's cool
sudden geyser
It's been a thing for a while.
faint prism
Never seen that before

So is it a Discord thing or just a bot here posts Gists with bot tokens

how do u use eval to change the server icon

I'm about as far as I can get within my own mind

how do u use eval to change the server icon
@indigo flax what lib

what options do i have to make pinging the bot a prefix?
commands.when_mentioned_or
literally what you used sometime ago
modest smelt
hey guys i have a question
@client.command()
async def help(ctx, prefix, type_help = "None", page:int = 1):
author = ctx.message.author
if type_help == "None":
embed = discord.Embed(title = "Help Command", value = "Welcome to the Help Command. Look at the various categories the bot has to offer! If there is a <> it is optional! Also if there is a [], that is required. This bot is made by ! bobthefam#6969", color=discord.Colour.blue())
embed.add_field(name = f"``{prefix}polls``", value = "", inline = False)
else:
embed = discord.Embed(title = "Oops", description = "I think you may have misspelled something. Try again")
await ctx.channel.send(author, embed = embed)
```For some reason when I run this, it says that ```Ignoring exception in command help:

modest smelt
wdym
slender thistle
as a custom arg
modest smelt
so where should i put it?
it is something the user defines
bc of customizable prefixes
modest smelt
i think i do
slender thistle
Customizable prefixes should be done in a different way where you simply get it from something like a dictionary
That way they would make far more sense
modest smelt
i store them in json
modest smelt
prefixes[str(ctx.guild.id)]= prefix
jade pewter
visual studio code crash when I do command
modest smelt
prefixes[str(ctx.guild.id)]= prefix
slender thistle
Alright
slender thistle
Attach that dictionary to your bot object under some special property
slender thistle
bot.prefixes = prefixes
slender thistle
Or just straight up bot.prefixes[...] = ...
Attach the prefixes dictionary to your bot object
modest smelt
bot.prefixes[...] = ... what would go in there?
slender thistle
so that you could do self/ctx.bot.prefixes[str(ctx.guild.id)] from anywhere (wherever you have access to the bot object)
wdym
Apply the similar logic as your code
Just prepend bot. there
modest smelt
so im saying what is x and y in this case: client.prefixes[x] = y
modest smelt
yes
slender thistle
prefixes[str(ctx.guild.id)]= prefix
Does this make sense to you
modest smelt
so just do client.prefixes[str(ctx.guild.id)] = prefix?
slender thistle
Aye
modest smelt
thanks
slender thistle
And make sure you use client.prefixes everywhere
slender thistle
Correct
modest smelt
ok
jade pewter
visual studio code crash when I do command
how to fix?
slender thistle
You'd then just do prefix = self.client.prefixes.get(str(ctx.guild.id), ""in case custom prefix wasn't found for the server, this will be used instead")

@slender thistle does this work?
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = commands.when_mentioned_or prefix)
it just no errors
but the actual prefix var doesnt work
faint prism
Well I found out that this is blocking my command from running
context.Guild.DownloadUsersAsync().Wait();
Tbh, I probably shouldn't have that inside the cmd...
How can I check if my cache for the users in a guild is outdated?
hmm maybe this
if (!context.Guild.IsSynced)
context.Guild.DownloadUsersAsync().Wait();

why not use DiscordSocketConfig.AlwaysDownloadUsers?

How can I check if the author of a message has the highest role in a server?
opal plank
get server role list.
get highest.
get member highest.
compare.
profit??

js is fun sometimes
objects can be referenced but not values
yeet just cut 100+ lines from this

var emoji1, emoji2, emoji3, emoji4;
reactCollector.on("collect", async (reaction, user) => {
// 'reaction' is the reaction that the user reacted with
message.channel.send(reaction.emoji.name);
// 'user' is the user who reacted
});
how would you set each emoji thing to a variable?
faint prism
why not use DiscordSocketConfig.AlwaysDownloadUsers?
@modest crane Whoops forgot about that. I'll give it a spin

I'm hosting my bot on heroku right now but i want to be able to store data on a json file, I tested my code with from my computer with node but when i uploaded it through github to heroku it wouldn't save anyone
is this just a thing with heroku?
sudden geyser
omg erwin not attaching images as emojis
I think Heroku resets your project files which makes that not possible, at least from what I've heard.
I do think it has database support, but the general rule of thumb is free hosting is limited
analog walrus
true
ive been thinking about switching the hosting service but im too lazy and haven't had any major problems with it so far
thanks for the help
opal plank
@sudden geyser
im fairly certain heroku doesnt allow local data
apart from whats in your repo
sudden geyser
you're killing me 
silver lintel
var emojiArray = [];
reactCollector.on("collect", async (reaction, user) => {
// 'reaction' is the reaction that the user reacted with
emojiArray.push(reaction.emoji.name);
// 'user' is the user who reacted
});
reactCollector.on("end", async (reaction, reason) => {
//console.log(emojiArray)
message.channel.send("emoji react test").then(msg => {
for (var i = 0; i < emojiArray.length; i++) {
msg.react(emojiArray[i]);
}
})
});
``` how to make it work with nitro emojis?The bot needs to be in the server the emoji came from.
You'd need to react with the emoji ID (the easiest way to do it).
drifting wedge
?
slender thistle
If you combined reading the documentation and my advice
drifting wedge
Ok
slender thistle
You'd get the right answer first time
drifting wedge
So......
slender thistle
It's a function
slender thistle
You call functions with parentheses
drifting wedge
Yes?
earnest phoenix
Which template do you guys think I should use for my JSDoc shit
midnight blaze
@slender thistle where are all the mods going?
earnest phoenix
where are all the mods going?
@midnight blaze heaven
earnest phoenix
and where are all the bot dev going?
Hell?
@midnight blaze god punished them for making fucking terrible bots that they think everybody likes but it's just them and their friends because all they did was use BotumGhostum and bots made with it are basically clones of one another
we really need to learn what the word effort means
sudden geyser
tbh JSDoc has way too many tags @ with a lot of them doing very minor differences
slender thistle
Mods on break because moderating both the website and server is fucking exhausting

thick gull
is there a reason this is undefined
message.guild.channels.cache.filter(m => m.id === message.channel.id).id
if I remove the .id at the very end it is a channel object
slender thistle
Uhh
earnest phoenix
use find maybe
fluid basin
if you have the ID that you need to get, use get
hallow mauve
-p 23
thick gull
filter returns a collection
@fluid basin i am throwing a fit thank you
if you have the ID that you need to get, use get
nah ID was an example
i need name
silver lintel
``reactCollector.on("collect", async (reaction, user) => {
if (reaction.emoji.id === "758896673023590471") {
}
}``
if the emoji is that id, how can i make the reaction collector stop and go to reactCollector.on("end"?
fluid basin
recommended way of getting reactions is awaitReactions
unless you have specific need to use a reactioncollector
whole scarab
Please heple me of my discord bot files! (yellow arrow part)
slender thistle
Alright why did you remove {} after dependencies
JSON follows a structure of "key", "value" with a comma appended when there's another key-value pair after that
{
"key1": "value1",
"key2": "value2"
}
See the comma?
whole scarab
Yes!
slender thistle
You add it because there's key2 thing after it
If I want to add, say, "key3": "value3", how would I do it?
slender thistle
Alright, seems you either ignored my question or didn't get it
whole scarab
I mean the problem is fine but only the circle part
slender thistle
And I'm trying to help you UNDERSTAND
whole scarab
I didn't ignored my question, but I didn't get it at all
slender thistle
why you're getting those errors in the first place
whole scarab
I don't know
slender thistle
What you have there is a JSON file
Following the proper JSON structure, you have keys to the left and values to the right
Can you show me what one of your keys and what its value are?
whole scarab
key is "name", value is "Fluttershy"
slender thistle
Nice
Now, what I want you to understand is
{
"key1": "value1",
"key2": "value2"
}
Do you see the comma there?
sweet ruin
Hello all. I am trying to code a command that allows server managers to set roles that are awarded when a member reaches or is above a certain level. I have made the command part of it. but I don't know how to make it so server managers can add multiple role rewards for multiple levels in one command. how do I do this?
These are currently what I have :
So this is my levelrewards model for mongodb : https://paste.mod.gg/gehoceyodu.js
slender thistle
@whole scarab so. The comma indicates that there's another key-value pair after the comma
whole scarab
{
"key1": "value1",
"key2": "value2"
}
@slender thistle, that didn't solve the problem at all
earnest phoenix
On authentication , i use bearer token but only when userlogin . but i get rate limited . ratelimit is per account . can anyone tell me reason for it? Ping me pls if someone replied
slender thistle
I'm giving you a fucking example
Not your ready-to-use JSON
Following that example and the fact that you're supposed to enter a comma after each value before another key
how do you solve your issue
whole scarab
{
"key1": "value1",
"key2": "value2"
}
@slender thistle, that didn't solve the problem at all!😢😭
