[slender thistle]

not for member_count

[clever wren]

bro

pls help

[earnest phoenix]

x = sum([guild.member_count for guild in self.bot.guilds])

works great thanks

@clever wren Maybe he doesn't do .js... just wait for help man

Id help you but i only know python

[clever wren]

ok

mm

@earnest phoenix bro can i dm you

[earnest phoenix]

you said u "have" code

did you write said code

or copy/paste?

[clever wren]

i took it from a site

but it works in most of the bots

i dont know the bot im now working on

so i dunno where to paste

[earnest phoenix]

you dont know the bot ur working on?

[clever wren]

i just got it from a rep

so im trying to customize it

its EvoBot Music Bot

You can find it by Googling

[earnest phoenix]

my honest opinion.. start a new bot.. write some basic commands and learn what your doing.. rather then barking at people for help on something like this

no one is going to want to help you

[ionic dawn]

copy pasting code and asking for help cause you have no idea of what you copied

yoink

[clever wren]

yes

youre right

[ionic dawn]

I know im right you know why?

[clever wren]

i dunno coding that much

[ionic dawn]

because I did it too

[clever wren]

mm

bro

will u help me

[ionic dawn]

yeah, just do what does guys said or mayb read the copied code and try to understand whats happening

[earnest phoenix]

imo copy/paste isnt a way to learn to make a bot

[ionic dawn]

try to find any github repo about that or somethn idk

[earnest phoenix]

you need to write code to learn it imo

[clever wren]

@ionic dawn ok

@earnest phoenix ok

[earnest phoenix]

i learn that way anyways

[ionic dawn]

@earnest phoenix you can copypaste code, edit it, read it and try to understand it, and then write your own

some people learn that way

[misty sigil]

you need to write code to learn it imo

[earnest phoenix]

I kicked and invited my bot 191 times to get a peice of code i wrote to work.. but i figured it out and got it working on my own

[ionic dawn]

by taking parts of code and adding them to their own, changing stuff and so

[earnest phoenix]

i am 10x better for it

[ionic dawn]

and at some point they learn why the code does that stuff

[misty sigil]

191 times dAMN that’s fucking dedication

[earnest phoenix]

yeah man i now know 190 things that dont work

[ionic dawn]

When I started with a bot I had an issue about that innorganically growth stuff

and manage to build a lil shit to kick my bot from servers with same owner, or a command b!gk userID to kick my bot from there

stuff like that

and there is no tutorials for such things so... you have to read stuff and try to figure out how to make it work

[earnest phoenix]

annyone knows why my custom status doesn't work on my phone? like it doesn't show up under my name

[digital ibex]

idk, try another channel

[earnest phoenix]

still not showing up

[shrewd compass]

My bot is still not approved. What should I do?

[honest perch]

Read pins in #support

Also your bot was denied

[clever wren]

@ionic dawn Thanks bro for saying this

@earnest phoenix you can copypaste code, edit it, read it and try to understand it, and then write your own
some people learn that way
@ionic dawn I solved the problem on my own

[ionic dawn]

@clever wren Im sure you felt good when solve it

[clever wren]

@ionic dawn Damn yea

Bro what are the ways to host a private bot for free 24/7

[fluid basin]

24/7 and free? doesn't exist

[clever wren]

ok

remove 24/7

i just want to host it

[fluid basin]

hm you can find some here if you can

[ionic dawn]

theres no such thing

theres no free hosts 24/7

[clever wren]

I tried repl.it with website monitoring

[ionic dawn]

just buy a Pi or use a 3$VPS

[clever wren]

I tried repl.it with website monitoring
@clever wren it works

only problem is that somehow it wont run this https://tunezilla.bullzillagaming.repl.run

all other bots are working fine

[ionic dawn]

I didnt used repl.it

[unique patio]

I'm having some issues with C# tackling it on a deeper note but comfortable with other languages:

var bot = new RandomBot(config);

var disc1 = new DiscordBot(bot);

Globals.Self = disc1;
Globals.Bot = bot;

Looking at another source, and vaguely understand how it links with C# but was wondering, how I'd pass the replyasync off to bot to use if it needs to send message back.

All works just not sure how to scope it correctly with C# so I can pass a call-back or something.

I'll take dummy links/etc to read not sure the name of what it is I'm trying to do/reference 😛

[silver lintel]

how do you get a channel from a mention djs?

[fluid basin]

MessageMentions#channels

[unique patio]

Got my issue sorted with a nice callback 😄

[silver lintel]

MessageMentions#channels
@fluid basin im very dumb and do not understand

[fluid basin]

@rain dew imagine minimodding in the wrong channel in the wrong server at the wrong time

[rain dew]

okey, sorry

[unique patio]

How would I properly check in .net API, if bot has permission to send/read in a channel.

[earnest phoenix]

How would I properly check in .net API, if bot has permission to send/read in a channel.
@unique patio you first press the power button on your computer then in the blue big box that prompts click force shutdown and then yes

[unique patio]

K

Took you two minutes to write that?

So after I apply the poodle attack on network what next, SSH right in?

[earnest phoenix]

Took you two minutes to write that?
@unique patio bro I'm eating spicy as fuck food and constantly drinking water

[unique patio]

I guess I'm better than you, prove me wrong.

emitting shortly.

TY for that!

When you see that blue-screen run.

[earnest phoenix]

I guess I'm better than you, prove me wrong.

prove me wrong.
@unique patio wha-

[unique patio]

That was prefect engrolls

GL!~ Cheerrio's is runnin

[pale vessel]

you mean this? https://discord.foxbot.me/docs/api/Discord.IGuildChannel.html#Discord_IGuildChannel_PermissionOverwrites

[unique patio]

Uhhh not sure it's over-writes?

I just want to verify, bot can send properly, could run a try/catch on it on failure and flag that but wondered if cleaner way

[slender thistle]

Is there anything like channel.permissions_for(guild.me)?

[unique patio]

            SocketChannel Channel = _client.GetChannel(channelid);

Not sure this library is weird in comparison to JS

I have this to select my channel and it seems to find it with or without perms.

[pale vessel]

https://discord.foxbot.me/docs/api/Discord.IGuildUser.html#Discord_IGuildUser_GetPermissions_Discord_IGuildChannel_

[unique patio]

So yeah confirming it to be non null and do a check right now.

Is that specific to channel? or overall guild

[pale vessel]

specific channel

[unique patio]

Ooooo

Had lots of issues going through the pile, lol

new library today for me

[slender thistle]

[unique patio]

Much appreciated!

[slender thistle]

We learn new things differently

[unique patio]

Well the fact it has like SocketChannel/Guild/etc etc

and they all do different things, ouuf got me reading more than coding

you know? lol

I hate these moments cause when it's done it's a head-slapper

[slender thistle]

yeah

[serene cliff]

anyone familiar with SQL? need help with a query

[earnest phoenix]

anyone familiar with SQL? need help with a query
@serene cliff just ask the question instead of waiting for someone experienced with SQL to bother you

fg

[wet flower]

I want bot

[earnest phoenix]

and i want a villa

[unique patio]

            if (_client.GetChannel(Config.QueueReportChannel) is IMessageChannel Channel)
            {
                try
                {
                    // Send channel
                    await Bot.ChannelReady(Channel);
                } catch
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Channel perms missing!");
                }
            }

Ended up with this, figured it was more work the other way. Not sure, passes fine if issues occur.

[slender thistle]

It's eh

It's one unsaved API request

Maybe ping cry?

[earnest phoenix]

what shiv said

check for perms beforehand executing the action

can you prevent express static stuff from caching on the user's web browser? I'm making a game where people can compete with each other and if stuff gets cached then there is no reason for the user's browser to re check for updates from the server.

@pale vessel does setInterval() work on browser JS

[pale vessel]

yes

[west agate]

how do i use rich embeds in djs?

[pale vessel]

you can either use the MessageEmbed constructor or provide the embed object directly in the send options

[violet mesa]

discord.py
how do i check if the bot is being pinged (if even possible)

i have this

@bot.command()
async def @soft grail(ctx):
    await ctx.send("my prefix is d!\n do d!help to see all the commands")
```but it seems to not work

[pale vessel]

my goodness

[west agate]

u see i made a corona command and when i use the command everything works until i go onto mobile. everything becomes thin and when i see dyno's corona command it looks cleaner

[pale vessel]

well if that's valid you can try @soft grail(ctx):

highly doubt it is though

[zenith terrace]

Mobile embeds are broken

[west agate]

why does dyno's work?

[violet mesa]

@pale vessel i think <> is the thing that is breaking it but ill try any way

[zenith terrace]

Cause some of them decide to be fixed and some dont

[pale vessel]

yeah that's what i'm wondering

i don't know python so i'm not sure what kind of characters it accepts for functions

can't you just use the on_message event?

check the message content

instead of making it a command

[violet mesa]

umm i guess ill use no rewright just for that

rewrite

[delicate shore]

How to check if number is an integer

[violet mesa]

int(number here)

i guess

[delicate shore]

For slowmode command

int(number here)
@violet mesa I tried

It works in eval

But it doesn't work in bot itself as you can see

[earnest phoenix]

Hello @delicate shore

[delicate shore]

Hello

[earnest phoenix]

Wheree can i invite pokenav bot @delicate shore

[delicate shore]

Pokenav?

[earnest phoenix]

You don't know about pokenav

[delicate shore]

https://top.gg/ you can search it here

[pale vessel]

use Number.isInteger(number)

[delicate shore]

Ok

[pale vessel]

it must be a number, not a string

[delicate shore]

And @pale vessel do I need to pass number as an int

Using pareseiny

[pale vessel]

you have to use Number.isInteger(number(string)) if you're dealing with strings

[delicate shore]

I can't type

[pale vessel]

you can also use parseInt

[delicate shore]

Yea

[pale vessel]

isNaN(parseInt(number)) would check whether a parsed number is an integer or an invalid number

[delicate shore]

I tried it didn't work tho

[earnest phoenix]

It is not there@delicate shore

[delicate shore]

Then I don't know @earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

🥺

[pale vessel]

wait

parseInt truncates floats

[delicate shore]

You can find it on other bot list also

Oh

[pale vessel]

do you want to convert floats to integers?

if so then use parseInt()

[earnest phoenix]

?

[delicate shore]

What

Ok wait

[earnest phoenix]

@pale vessel why \n no work in CanvasRenderingContext2D.fillText();

[light island]

Hi, RichEmbed has been changed to MessageEmbed, right?

[earnest phoenix]

Hi, RichEmbed has been changed to MessageEmbed, right?
@light island And a few other changes too

hold up lemme fetch the docs

[light island]

Ah, alright. Thanks.

[earnest phoenix]

https://discordjs.guide/additional-info/changes-in-v12.html

[light island]

Thanks.

[earnest phoenix]

There are WAY MORE changes than just embeds

[light island]

Yup, I've noticed

[earnest phoenix]

Thanks.
@light island nope

just chillin'

playing rock paper scissors that i coded

[light island]

That's cool.

[pale vessel]

@pale vessel why \n no work in CanvasRenderingContext2D.fillText();
@earnest phoenix because it just doesn't support it

you have to split it yourself and make a loop

[earnest phoenix]

is an express.js server with express static files better than repl.it's built-in HTML, CSS, JS servers

[viral timber]

Hey, can you help me with this code, i want to create a ban command using Discord.js v 12.2.0, client.on('message', async message => { if (message.content === "u!ban") { const { member, mentions } = message if(member.hasPermission("ADMINISTRATOR") || member.hasPermission("BAN_MEMBERS")){ const user = message.mentions.users.first(); if(!user){ message.channel.send('<@${member.id}> Please specify someone to ban.'); }else{ message.guild.members.ban(user); message.channel.send('Banned.'); } }else{ message.channel.send('<@${member.id}> You do not have permissions to use this command.'); } } });

[slender thistle]

Sorry what

Wdym repl's built-in servers

@viral timber any issues you sre facing? (errors, command not working)

[earnest phoenix]

Wdym repl's built-in servers
@slender thistle they have a language called HTML, CSS, JS which requires no extra stuff to setup just put your files done they'll serve it for you

but i want to do some other back-end stuff too

[viral timber]

the command is not working but the console does not show up anything @slender thistle

it's like it cannot find the mentioned user to ban

[slender thistle]

Static files? I'd say it's up to you

repl just gives you the choice but if you wanna do whatever in the backend

@viral timber try putting a few console.logs where you think the command stops

[pale vessel]

you never used any of these

only member.id

[slender thistle]

Did they not?

[viral timber]

oh yes

[slender thistle]

member.hasPermission also

Or is that not how it works?

[earnest phoenix]

how do you fetch the cookies which the client sent?'

req.cookies?

[vital lark]

ye

[earnest phoenix]

ok

do i need an extra thing for parsing cookies?

express.js docs say cookie-parser middleware

[cinder patio]

yeah you need that

You can also parse the cookies yourself from the cookies header

[viral timber]

i used member when i check if the message author has permissions

[earnest phoenix]

why ain't my express server listening for requests

i added a listener using app.listen(8080); yet repl.it is showing Run the repl to see the output when i goto the website

[unique patio]

Have you tried plugging your internet in?

[earnest phoenix]

after a quick reload it works

repl.it is fucking weird

the app literally wasn't running

even though it showed that it was

[unique patio]

Sounds like a driver issue

have you defragged recently?

[earnest phoenix]

Sets cookie name to value. The value parameter may be a string or object converted to JSON.

ahhh now i see why the cookies weren't there because i passed a normal JS number instead of JSON

[slender thistle]

Numbers are supported in JSON, no?

[pale vessel]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

smh

wait is the options parameter required

if (!req.cookies.score) res.cookie("score", JSON.stringify(0), { httpOnly: true })

is this correct? The cookie ain't showing up when I click the padlock thing in chrome and press cookies

[vital lark]

no

it has to be like

res.cookie('score', '0', { httpOnly: true });

or res.cookie('score', { score: 0 }, { httpOnly: true });

[earnest phoenix]

bruh

[pale vessel]

isn't that what JSON.stringify(0) does

[earnest phoenix]

i added that just to be safe

[pale vessel]

never mind

wait

they said "or"

so shouldn't yours work?

[earnest phoenix]

that bruh moment when you think you have a listener listening for GET requests to / but then you see this line:

app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/public");

which makes your listener pointless

[pale vessel]

JSON.stringify(0) would return "0"

[earnest phoenix]

also 0 is a falsy value

works now

[ionic shard]

am i missing out if im not using commando?

[earnest phoenix]

not necessarily

[ionic shard]

i see it here in there but ive never tried it

now i am confused if it's like a big advantage if i use it or just noob-friendly thing

[pale vessel]

am i missing out if im not using commando?
@ionic shard no, i don't even use any frameworks

[ionic shard]

hum ok

[pale vessel]

i'd say noob-friendly i guess

but it's expandable

[ionic shard]

okay thanks

[frank lava]

Has anyone ever seen a discord bot on mobile

[earnest phoenix]

me

there is a way to set that

pretty simple

[frank lava]

How

Lol

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

discord is weird

@pale vessel can you set custom headers in HTTP requests?

[pale vessel]

yes why not

[earnest phoenix]

wtf

res.set("My-Custom-Header", "fuck");

[ionic shard]

    large_threshold: 50,
    compress: false,
    properties: {
      $os: browser ? 'browser' : process.platform,

    },
    version: 6,
  },```

@frank lava

[earnest phoenix]

how could you do stuff to cookies in browser-js?

[pale vessel]

what is that

[ionic shard]

#development message

[pale vessel]

https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/761185540141350943

[ionic shard]

oh

[earnest phoenix]

what is that
@pale vessel i want to fetch the value of the score cookie and change it's value around and stuff

*get

no promises for cookies

[pale vessel]

is browser-js a package

[earnest phoenix]

no

it's stuff that runs outside of node.js on normal browsers

basically client side javascript

[pale vessel]

oh so just js

jeez

[earnest phoenix]

yes

[pale vessel]

you want to set a cookie?

[earnest phoenix]

yes

imma just read MDN before i explode your mind

[pale vessel]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/cookie

[quartz kindle]

you can deal with cookies from js, but is not recommended because it has security implications

its fine for stuff like language selection, shopping carts, and user configuration

but its not fine for auth tokens and account remembering, those should be done with server side cookies

[earnest phoenix]

f

aeon say f

bruh

[cinder patio]

Aand you should make all cookies regarding auth HTTP only so they cannot be accessed by client-side JS

[umbral zealot]

true

session tokens should never be accessed by the page itself.

they should be secure, and httpOnly

[earnest phoenix]

document.cookie is returning nothing even though there are cookies set on the page???

[umbral zealot]

are those cookies httponly? 😛

[earnest phoenix]

i have such a big brain

ok

i got it to work

[green kestrel]

hmmm

i think its finally time to tidy up my lazy command handler code

i mean seriously... it works but ew... its like a chain of if, then, else if... of command names 😛

[pale vessel]

[green kestrel]

@pale vessel whats with the nick change lol

[earnest phoenix]

is it pointless to use cookies to store rockum paperum scissorsum score for the user for a whole freaking month

[green kestrel]

depends on your use case code913

[tight plinth]

i mean seriously... it works but ew... its like a chain of if, then, else if... of command names 😛
@green kestrel oh hi yandere dev's dad

[earnest phoenix]

just for storing the score for later

[green kestrel]

lol

whats yandere

[tight plinth]

yandere simulator

[earnest phoenix]

even though nobody store rock paper scissors scores for a whole month

[green kestrel]

ive been holding off on splitting commands into separate C++ source files, because if i do that, each one adds ~4 minutes to the build time on my dev box

because aegis 😦

[tight plinth]

do like everyone here and use js

[green kestrel]

so instead of 630mb of ram and 2% cpu for 10k servers, i'd need several vps with 8gb ram?

great idea! 😄

tbh the performance benefits outweight a bit of waiting

[earnest phoenix]

Does Discord delete images uploaded to their platform once in a while?

[green kestrel]

@earnest phoenix dont think so, unless you delete the message theyre attached to

[solemn leaf]

@green kestrel computer says yes?

[earnest phoenix]

do like everyone here and use js
@tight plinth because it's standardized in browsers so it's fucking easy to link a dashboard to your database instead of having the database in a different language and the browser stuck to one language requiring conversion between them

aight thx it looks like discord just experienced a problem of loading embed images just now also im 12 minutes away

[faint prism]

Has anyone ever seen a discord bot on mobile
@frank lava Yeah, I think NotErwin said you'd have to modify the lib you're using, or alternatively I'd think it should be achievable via an api call

[thick gull]

i believe @earnest phoenix's bot is done on mobile

[faint prism]

I hosted a bot on mobile

It'll show "online" as expected, unless you do some coding

[thick gull]

which is pretty torturous on mobile

but somehow

people do it

respect

[faint prism]

I don't code on it, I SSH into my phone

[thick gull]

yeah

im pretty sure voltrex made his bot on mobile

like

entirely

[faint prism]

just have a cron job pull latest github every now and then and pm2 watching for changes

eh

It's just hard for no reason

[earnest phoenix]

aight thx it looks like discord just experienced a problem of loading embed images just now
@earnest phoenix as expected they LIED that they fixed embeds on mobile

btw how do you make it so when someone sends a link to your website it sends the title, description and all that jazz in the embed? I tried doing meta data stuff but it ain't working.

nvm figured it out

hamburger.eat() returns cannot get .eat() of undefined

[umbral zealot]

hamburger is undefined.

[thin turret]

I have it defined tho let hamburger = Earth.food.fast.McDonalds.menu.quarterPounder;

Ill double check mcdonalds api

Ohhh i had to do menu.burgers

[earnest phoenix]

hamburger.eat() returns cannot get .eat() of undefined
@thin turret technically it should throw hamburger.eat() is not a function for methods

[umbral zealot]

not if hamburger was undefined

if it's undefined, how the hell would it know eat() is not a function?

[earnest phoenix]

not if hamburger was undefined :thumbs:
@umbral zealot it still throws the error

[compact oriole]

no?

if it's undefined, how the hell would it know eat() is not a function?
this

[umbral zealot]

It would throw the error he got. cannot get "eat" of undefined

[earnest phoenix]

nvm

[thin turret]

All I know was that hamburger was undefined

Well incorrectly defined

Do you guys know if .eat() returns a promise?

hi

lol

[cobalt spruce]

[earnest phoenix]

does SQLGate have their own service for hosting SQL servers
or do i have to fuck google cloud platform again for a free host

[vale garden]

i have a serious question

serious

so basically

i have been listening to shit songs on spotify for like half a year now

and finally im getting the best songs ever

but i dont know which playlist this is

lmaoo

[earnest phoenix]

this is #development

[vale garden]

lol ik

this is a joke

but its a true problem im facing

[earnest phoenix]

then goto #general and whine

[opaque seal]

does SQLGate have their own service for hosting SQL servers
or do i have to fuck google cloud platform again for a free host
I hate GCloud

seriously

it's fucking awful

[vale garden]

hi

ok real question this ime

time

if (args[2]){

        for (var i = 1; i < args.length; i++) {

          if (i === 1)
          smessage.concat(`${args[2]} `)
          i++

          if (i === 2)
          smessage.concat(`${args[3]} `)
          i++

          if (i === 3)
          smessage.concat(`${args[4]} `)
          i++

          if (i === 4)
          smessage.concat(`${args[5]} `)
          i++

          if (i === 5)
          smessage.concat(`${args[6]} `)
          i++
          
        
      }

i have this loop

and it says

TypeError: Cannot read property 'concat' of undefined

[quartz kindle]

is smessage defined?

also, what the fuck is that code

[pale vessel]

there's definitely a better way to do this, just saying lul

[coral stirrup]

how in the earth

[quartz kindle]

not to mention its skipping numbers because its doing i++ twice on every iteration

[coral stirrup]

yeah and fuck braces too right i mean who needs them anyways

[quartz kindle]

actually

its doing all of them at once

beause there is no else

lmao

[coral stirrup]

this is some weird piece of code my friend

[quartz kindle]

@vale garden tell us what exctly are you trying to do, there is likely several ways of doing what you want that are 1000x better, faster, cleaner, easier, smaller, and more readable

[earnest phoenix]

should i put arc.io on my pointless website

because right now it takes a fucking second to load

a CDN will probably make it better

[coral stirrup]

your site would need some graphical improvements

[earnest phoenix]

nope

it's the insane amount of javascript files that are loading

because it's an online game

whose code i split into multiple files

[coral stirrup]

and still, it would need some frontend improvements :^)

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[coral stirrup]

https://rock-paper-scissors.code913.repl.co/script.js uhm

is this the "insane amount" you were talking about

[earnest phoenix]

nope

that's not the one

[pale vessel]

snake case \😳

[earnest phoenix]

the actual website is in a private repl

on my friends profile

[pale vessel]

no miner 😔

[earnest phoenix]

Leave Server

[coral stirrup]

on the online site are no other files linked tho

[earnest phoenix]

this is not the one

[coral stirrup]

thats the source of the site we talked about

the online one

[earnest phoenix]

[coral stirrup]

unnecessary

[earnest phoenix]

smh

<link> has no closing tag

so putting a slash in the same tag tells the browser hey this tag has no closing tag

[coral stirrup]

smh

its unnecessary because the browser knows that <link> has no closing tag

[earnest phoenix]

There’s also a number of other popular databases including MySQL, NoSQL and PostgreSQL.
what kind of article puts MySQL and NoSQL on the same line

its unnecessary because the browser knows that <link> has no closing tag
@coral stirrup do you actually think i use updated browsers

[coral stirrup]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

wut

imma head out

i'm getting confused every second

[pale vessel]

bro this ain't xml

[earnest phoenix]

bro this ain't xml
@pale vessel this is discord duh

[pale vessel]

you probably do <img src=""></img> too

[coral stirrup]

lmao

[sturdy ridge]

lol

[earnest phoenix]

you probably do <img src=""></img> too
@pale vessel nope i just do <img src="" />

[swift radish]

brah

[pale vessel]

that's-

[pale vessel]

i see potential

[swift radish]

discord no provide coding

need to do it on a browser or smthin

[pale vessel]

<a> and alt attribute 😳

[restive furnace]

[cinder patio]

In React every element has a closing tag so maybe that's where you got confused from

[restive furnace]

in html almost every have it too

[pale vessel]

closing tags are fine for compatibility but it's not needed in html5

[restive furnace]

what

you don't need closing tags

?

[compact oriole]

or in react (I think?)

React might compile it to have them

[pale vessel]

for self closing tags

not something like </p>

[compact oriole]

<iframe />

for example

[pale vessel]

iframe is <iframe></iframe>

never mind

never mind times two https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe

[earnest phoenix]

i've started a giant conversation about closing tags
what have i done

[quartz kindle]

only some tags can be self enclosed

[earnest phoenix]

If i type Hello in channel id 41561561516545 or type anything bot will reply GOOD
but how bot will don't revice message GOOD? How bot will don't get message he self

[vale garden]

@vale garden tell us what exctly are you trying to do, there is likely several ways of doing what you want that are 1000x better, faster, cleaner, easier, smaller, and more readable
@quartz kindle well i ended up doing all that

lol

[quartz kindle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

@earnest phoenix ignore bots

in discord.js you can do if(message.author.bot) return

[violet mesa]

i think its the same in python if u dont use from discord.ext import commands

[pale vessel]

context has author too, if that's what you mean

[violet mesa]

if message.author == client: return i think this would work

[pale vessel]

wouldn't that only ignore the bot itself?

[violet mesa]

idk

im not smart

[pale vessel]

same

idk python nor dpy

[violet mesa]

lol

discord.py is totaly diffrent then normal python

like

[pale vessel]

how come

[violet mesa]

it doesnt act like python

like

idk

how to explain

u dont realy use python stuff unless u use list and import random

stuf

f

like if u would give a python god a tut for a discord bot he wouldnt know its python unless he see's import discord

its like unity c#

and normal c#

they are the same thing

but they arnt

[slender thistle]

what

[violet mesa]

yes

lmao

[compact oriole]

[violet mesa]

comfuse and run

[pale vessel]

like if u would give a python god a tut for a discord bot he wouldnt know its python unless he see's import discord
@violet mesa but you can really differentiate python code though

it's quite unique

[slender thistle]

Can I integrate it?

[autumn aspen]

guys Im about to do a serverlockdown command

[earnest phoenix]

ignore only bot my self don't other bot

[faint prism]

did I hear C#?

they are the same thing
@violet mesa They are the same language...?
From what I can tell, it just implements a few classes, has a few using statements, and maybe a few attributes

[slender thistle]

Is it a request for help with coding one or request for someone to make one?

[earnest phoenix]

Help with coding lol

[faint prism]

Just ask your questions here

[slender thistle]

Yeah I'd suggest just asking here

that message can be misinterpreted as if you were asking someone to code a bot for you

[earnest phoenix]

I'll delete then :>

[slender thistle]

and we generally do/want to encourage users to ask questions in public channels unless it's too occupied

[faint prism]

Also, in case anyone else has a similar question

[slender thistle]

so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[earnest phoenix]

I have another question but idk where to ask it

[slender thistle]

is it related to top.gg or coding?

[earnest phoenix]

top.gg

[slender thistle]

#support then

[earnest phoenix]

Thank you

[slender thistle]

I'd suggest skimming through channel topics while you're here

[earnest phoenix]

How can I see the time spent on an activity
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Activity

ex: 12:20

[pale vessel]

try https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/Activity?scrollTo=timestamps

you already knew the activity docs, try looking through it lul

[misty sigil]

fuck sake

Flaz beat me

[faint prism]

@sage bobcat I see you're directly calling a MongoDB in your command

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[faint prism]

May want to consider something more abstract

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[faint prism]

I posted an example a while ago of a maintainable database context

[tired panther]

when I want to search a bot is it? const dis = await client.guilds.cache.get(message.guild.id).users.cache.get(bot);

[misty sigil]

no?

[tired panther]

?

then what?

const dis = await client.guilds.cache.get(message.guild.id).members.cache.get(bot);

??

@misty sigil

[misty sigil]

I don’t know?

[fickle sapphire]

client.users.cache.get()

or client.channels.cache.get()

depends what you’re searching for

[digital ibex]

whats ur issue, @tired panther ?

[earnest phoenix]

from discord.ext import commands



client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '?')


@client.event()
async def on_ready():
	print('Bot is ready for use')
	print('------------------------')
	
	
@client.command()
async def social(ctx):
	embed = discord.Embed(title = "Shit" , description = 'Nothing special' , colour = discord.Colour.green())
	await ctx.send(embed=embed)
	
	
client.run(Token)```

What's wrong in this command?

It's showing Missing one positional arguement

[tired panther]

@digital ibex I am searching for a bot in a server , but it gives the message dispite that bot is already in the server

const dis = await client.guilds.cache.get(message.guild.id).members.cache.get(bot);

[digital ibex]

whats the error?

[tired panther]

if(!dis){return message.channel.send("bla bka");}

[earnest phoenix]

Nvm

I got it

[tired panther]

no error

it is sending the message even if the bot is in the server

@digital ibex

[digital ibex]

what does dis log?

[tired panther]

if the bot is in the server || true / false

[thick gull]

isn't that going to be true regardless ??

[gentle lynx]

i know this isnt really about bot dev but how can i check if a column with an ID already exists in MySQL node.js?

[digital ibex]

every time a message gets sent, it will trigger the if(!dis)

in any server, you're not looking for a particular server, @tired panther

[tired panther]

no its a command

i have found the bug forget the " " bei the number xD

[autumn aspen]

I made it

is it nice?

[jagged oyster]

(sorry for ping) @split hazel my bot has been muted for a while now, for having multiple instances running plus a few other issues. Those have since been fixed. Is there any way it could get unmuted? It's name is ParksBot

[digital ibex]

wrong channel mate

try #support

[split hazel]

@jagged oyster all set

[jagged oyster]

thanks!

[slate oyster]

I have a habit to program for 10 minutes and slack off on Discord for 1 hour}
But I'm making a Discord bot, so I cannot disable Discord
Solution?

[digital ibex]

wut

[sudden geyser]

have less friends and servers

or give yourself a cookie for every X minutes worth of coding

[quartz kindle]

discord eats your soul

[slate oyster]

Less friends and servers is hard
I can go buy some cookies I guess

[misty sigil]

or give yourself a cookie for every X minutes worth of coding
@sudden geyser cookies as motivation

nice idea

[sudden geyser]

yeah but one problem

I don't have any

[misty sigil]

just exercise every once in a while

[hearty wren]

Guys, anyone ever tried sending embeds manually? Like constructing a json and sending a post request to the webhook?

Im having a trouble with that atm although im following their guide

[sudden geyser]

What library are you using

[autumn aspen]

guys if u want ur bot to mention a channel how would it be?

[sudden geyser]

<#channel-id>

[autumn aspen]

thx

[slate oyster]

Lemme guess
Mu is not using a library
Writing their own

[autumn aspen]

<#channel-id>
@sudden geyser is it message or just that

[sudden geyser]

Take [#development](/guild/264445053596991498/channel/272764566411149314/) for example. That becomes #development

[autumn aspen]

yeah ik

[hearty wren]

Im using requests with python, a very basic webhook just to try embeds

[autumn aspen]

thx

Take [#development](/guild/264445053596991498/channel/272764566411149314/) for example. That becomes #development
@sudden geyser ${<#channel-id>} its not that

I want it to be like "channel" locked down.

[gilded plank]

Endph#5742

Bots

@sand glacier

[autumn aspen]

oops

[sudden geyser]

The inside of ${} should have the expression on getting the channel ID.

<#> is just part of the content of the message.

[split hazel]

if anyone is decent with sql, could someone guide me on querying 2 tables, lets say i have table 1 name (string), age (int) and table 2 name (string), premium (bool) how would i make select return only rows from table 1 where the row meets the condition in table 2 (premium is true)

[autumn aspen]

<#> is just part of the content of the message.
@sudden geyser ${message.channel.id} no bro I want it to tell the channels name not the id

[compact oriole]

Speedy

if you are using js, try this out

https://www.prisma.io/

[autumn aspen]

@compact oriole can I get some help

with my pb

[compact oriole]

pb?

[autumn aspen]

problem

[compact oriole]

I am helping Speedy

[split hazel]

not really helpful, i want to do it via a query not 3rd party service

[compact oriole]

I recommend using Prisma as it uses native queries under the hood

(and it also has a dope api)

it converts your js like query to native sql

[autumn aspen]

look ${message.channel.id} I want it to say the channels name not the id of it @compact oriole

[autumn aspen]

bc this tells the id only

@compact oriole man can u help me pls lmao

[compact oriole]

no

[autumn aspen]

ok

no
@compact oriole thx

[compact oriole]

stop pinging me also

[autumn aspen]

🖕

[compact oriole]

[autumn aspen]

${message.channel.id} is only message the id of the channel but I want it to say the channels name not the id of it. Anyone help?

[opal plank]

@split hazel best i can tell you is use WITH

for function

[misty sigil]

lmfao pog middlefinger

[compact oriole]

poggers

[sick pelican]

how to make a message in slowmode so anyone cant spam it?

[split hazel]

i found in to work best

[opal plank]

WITH (SELECT NAME FROM public.TABLE WHERE user = 'user') AS USER
SELECT * FROM public.TABLE where USER = USER AND premium = true

[compact oriole]

this is why I hate sql...

[opal plank]

i dont use many IN's tbh

[sick pelican]

can anyone help me?

?

[opal plank]

@sick pelican you want a cooldown, if i got your question correctly

[sick pelican]

yeah

[opal plank]

you uysing d.js?

[sick pelican]

yes

[opal plank]

@sick pelican https://discordjs.guide/command-handling/adding-features.html#cooldowns

[sick pelican]

ok thx

[opal plank]

[spring lance]

Is Visual Code Studio the best for programming app?
is it the best programming app?
I'm new

[slender thistle]

The only best app os tje one you like

[opal plank]

@spring lance there isnt a best tool for job, it boils down to preference, some people like atom, some people like vim, i presonelly prefer VSC

[sick pelican]

@opal plank actually there is given of the code of a separate js file which will be executed and read on the bot via main file but my code is on the main file so what would i do?

[opal plank]

it depends on your tastes tbh

[spring lance]

Is Visual studio good?

I've never done programming before

But I need to download an app to start

So should I do visual studio

[opal plank]

@sick pelican in the same guide i sent you, look for command handling

[sick pelican]

ok

[slender thistle]

Which programming language do you want to write in?

[opal plank]

good? no, its fantastic

[spring lance]

Python

[opal plank]

VSC has everything and more that you'll need

[spring lance]

Javascript

Ok 🙂 🙂

[slender thistle]

Well, ig VSC and you could try out JetBrains IDEs like PyCharm

[spring lance]

Do you guys have any videos on a VSC tutorial

[opal plank]

heres a tip

when you starting as a dev, get a good habit of READINg

not watching

most of the stuff you'll be doing wont have tutorials on it

but theres ALWAYS documentation

and videos are likely outdated, docs are always up to date

so, tl;dr, read the docs rather than videos

[spring lance]

Ok how old do you recommend beginners be

[opal plank]

there isnt an age for coding

its commitment

you can be 10 for all we care, age isnt a requirement for coding

just the effort you put on it

[spring lance]

So it might be difficult

tbh

[opal plank]

not quite

like i said, commitment

[slender thistle]

It's all about commitment and time

and being patient

[opal plank]

the more you pour into it, the more experienced you'll get

[spring lance]

yea for sure

[slender thistle]

We learn differently

[eternal osprey]

hey guys i am really in need for some help. ```js
let channel1 = message.mentions.channels.first();
let rawdata = fs.readFile("./data.json");
let channel= JSON.parse(rawdata)[0];
if(message.channel.id == channel){
const args6 =
' ' +
message.content

  T.post("statuses/update", { status: args6 }, function (
    err,
    data,
    response
  ) {
    console.log(data);
  })

}

if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "setchannel")){
fs.writeFile("./data.json", [channel.id])

}

}``` when i use the !setchannel command, it gives me this error: (node:8224) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError [ERR_INVALID_CALLBACK]: Callback must be a function. Received undefined

[umbral zealot]

function() isn't how you write a function.

oh wait, no, I was not seeing the correct syntax here, sorry

[compact oriole]

I think it is?

yea

[opal plank]

thats callback lol

[umbral zealot]

yeah no I was wrong there, 100%, sorry

[compact oriole]

I always use () => {}

[opal plank]

define T

[compact oriole]

because arrow function gang

[umbral zealot]

In fact, the error isn't on that line at all

let rawdata = fs.readFile("./data.json"); is the line where it's complaining about the missing callback

readFile is async and requires a callback

[opal plank]

that too

what is T btw?

[somber lynx]

i finshied my bot

[umbral zealot]

You can either use readFileSync , or you can use the promise-based, or you can just use require() instead, or, and this is the critical point that you really, REALLY need to understand: YOU COULD NOT USE A JSON FILE AS A DATABASE.

@eternal osprey https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/272764566411149314/756493131842584687 please read this.

[compact oriole]

anything else is better

well almost

[opal plank]

its funny that they havent even replied yet

[umbral zealot]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[opal plank]

also this triggers me

let;
let;
let;

[eternal osprey]

bro chill.

i was feeding my cat.

i have read everything above.

i know json databases are one of the worst things on earth..... but i just want to store 1 message.

that;s all.

[opal plank]

[umbral zealot]

Alright, well, go ahead and use readFileSync then

Though I hope this won't ever be used on multiple guilds.

[eternal osprey]

it's just for one guild

[umbral zealot]

[eternal osprey]

one command only.

hwoever, i am still facing that command.

[umbral zealot]

Alright, readFileSync it is

[eternal osprey]

should it be readFile

[umbral zealot]

no

[eternal osprey]

instead of readFileSync.

[umbral zealot]

No, jesus christ, dude

[spring lance]

How do I get the early supporter badge

[umbral zealot]

You have readFile. it requires a callback. I'm telling you to use INSTEAD readFileSync

@spring lance you don't, you can't, it's not obtainable.

[spring lance]

😭

[spring lance]

So I can't ever get the badge?

Like is there a badge still?

Like a newer version obtainable

[umbral zealot]

No, there is no more badge, and there will not be one to replace the early dev badge.

[eternal osprey]

hmm so it worked.

[spring lance]

Early Verified Bot Developer?

😦

[eternal osprey]

however, i am getting cannot read property id of undefined?

[spring lance]

Verified bot developer

im so confused

[umbral zealot]

It's early because those of us that have it already had a bot and we actually went through the approval process early. That's why we have the early dev badge. There is no replacement.

[spring lance]

So the new version is Verified bot developer?

🙂

[umbral zealot]

Are you daft

There is no new version, you stale muffin.

You can't get a badge. You don't get a badge.

[eternal osprey]

evie.Codes, what gender are you?

[spring lance]

LOL

[opal plank]

gender fluid

[umbral zealot]

I don't see how that's relevant to anything.

[opal plank]

also #general

[spring lance]

Exactly Evie stop talking

[umbral zealot]

@opal plank don't speak for me, honey.

[spring lance]

Your being rude for no reason

[opal plank]

right mr apache helicopter @umbral zealot

[eternal osprey]

Def a girl.

[umbral zealot]

Can we get back to development

[restive furnace]

@spring lance explain me how's she/he rude? Evie is trying to explain you.

[umbral zealot]

Repeatedly 😂

@eternal osprey what's in your json file right now?

[eternal osprey]

just []

i think that the error is coming from this part:

fs.writeFile("./data.json", [channel.id])

[sonic lodge]

you're getting the first element from that array

[umbral zealot]

fs.writeFile("./data.json", [channel.id]) <--- this line would be the error, right? if channel is undefined, it would get that error.

you're not overwriting the channel variable so it's undefined.

[sonic lodge]

let channel= JSON.parse(rawdata)[0];

there is nothing to get

[eternal osprey]

okay.

so i should have the setchannel command above my other code?

so it first writes, then checks.

[umbral zealot]

What would it be writing?

why are you writing it at all, in fact, if you're not actually updating that value?

[eternal osprey]

the channel id of the channel where you use !setchannel.

[umbral zealot]

That's message.channel

not just channel

[eternal osprey]

i know i tried that

message.channel.id

it gave me that callback shit error again

[umbral zealot]

because writeFileSync too 😉

[lime jewel]

is there a way to check if a user nitro boosted a guild with discord.js v 12?

[cinder patio]

Check the message type

Wait, like, you want to detect when a user boosts, or just to see if a user has boosted a certain guild?

[gentle lynx]

how can i check if result is empty

(it doesnt work like this)

when its not empty it sends [object Object]

[earnest phoenix]

look at how result looks when it's empty

then check for that

[misty sigil]

i wonder what this place is gonna look like on the 8th oct

or was it 7th

[gentle lynx]

the first one is when its empty

[sudden geyser]

is result an array

[gentle lynx]

i honestly dont know

ill check wait

its an object

[cinder patio]

If it was an array it wouldn't be shown as [Object Object]

Don't put the object directly in the string, either stringify it or add every value to the string individually

[quartz kindle]

or console.log it first to see what it looks like

[gentle lynx]

[
  RowDataPacket { ID: 659633074400788500, Premium: 0, BlackListed: 0 }
]

ah ok

i did result.toString() == ""

now it works

thanks

[sudden geyser]

By the way, you may want to store the user ID as a string

[gentle lynx]

ill change it

varchar

anyways thanks for the help 👍

[slender thistle]

Man, I need to update all my bots

[sudden geyser]

for what though

[slender thistle]

intents

It's like 5 bots, I need a list of all intents and what they do ngl

[zenith knoll]

hi annie

[earnest phoenix]

Idk what is happening there's an error and idk it its js

Hi ;-;

    console.log('uwu')
    client.user.setActivity(`servers`, { type: "WATCHING" });

})

client.login(config.token);```

help me

[zenith knoll]

no spoonfeeding remember

[earnest phoenix]

pls

:(

ok

sorry

[zenith knoll]

lmao they still can help

[earnest phoenix]

ik

[slender thistle]

Well

What's the error

[earnest phoenix]

idk

the ; at the end is supposedly an error

[slender thistle]

See the error VSC is giving you

; in JS isn't an error

[earnest phoenix]

What should I fix

[zenith knoll]

hover over the red lne

what does it say

[earnest phoenix]

okay

[zenith knoll]

since we dsont have access to whole code

[earnest phoenix]

} expected.

[zenith knoll]

lmao u missed a } somewhere then

prob in a function ending

[earnest phoenix]

Then add a }

[slender thistle]

You either put an unnecessary { somewhere or ^

[earnest phoenix]

Okay

thanks

It's still not working .__.

If i put a { somewhere there's error on client

[sudden geyser]

It's like 5 bots, I need a list of all intents and what they do ngl
@slender thistle ah, I only have one bot sitting without the intents but I haven't maintained it so gonna let it rot

[slender thistle]

😄

[earnest phoenix]

😄

@slender thistle yeah?

what should I import

[slender thistle]

you shouldn't import anything other than dbl

[earnest phoenix]

oh okay

[slender thistle]

but oh look you decided to name your file that

so everything is breaking because you used a module's name

[earnest phoenix]

okay i renamed it to list.py

it is now working

thanks!

[slender thistle]

👍

[autumn aspen]

Guys I forgot what softban was lol

?

Can someone explain for me?

-help

[sinful belfry]

is this referring to a specific bot?

[earnest phoenix]

-help

I added a bracket but it says im wrong

[green kestrel]

So I just tried out address sanitizer (Google asan) on g++ with my program and it found a memory corruption heap overflow. So in that regard it's great. But I noticed whenever it's compiled against my program it has 20 terabytes virtual. Removing asan removes the virt. I don't even have 20tb storage never mind 20tb swap lol.

Numbers that big are huge OOF

[misty sigil]

20tb swap

BRUH

[restive furnace]

yeah cool

20tb swap

and you are using raw new/delete or malloc/free, right?

[autumn aspen]

20tb swap
@misty sigil whats softban

[fast trench]

does anyone know if you can code a bot to post in an announcement channel and then have it share it? I know you can have it post but the share part is what I’m curious about. Ping me with answers

[earnest phoenix]

fsr its still not working :(

[fast trench]

Remove the last character 🤦‍♂️

[earnest phoenix]

it still doesnt work

[restive furnace]

learn how to indent

[earnest phoenix]

wha

do

[fast trench]

Show more code

[earnest phoenix]

you

ok

[fast trench]

In a sourcebin

[umbral zealot]

Look you have a syntax error, you're missing a } or a ) somewhere for sure

[fast trench]

All of it

[umbral zealot]

Take the entire file and throw it on https://hasteb.in/

after pasting, do CTRL+S and send us the URL you get

[earnest phoenix]

um

are u gonna steal my code :(

lol

[umbral zealot]

Do you really think you've done something that a thousand people haven't already

[earnest phoenix]

oh ok

fine

:C

why do you feel that someone would like to steal your non working code

its over 2000 characters

bin it

[earnest phoenix]

https://paste.mod.gg

or that

okok

i did what u said
