is it possible to have a bot add a bot?
earnest phoenix
Imagine bots inviting bots.
@solemn latch pretty normal
halcyon kite
there would be more bots than people in discord
solemn latch

halcyon kite
at some point
earnest phoenix
@blissful coral no stop
solemn latch
Killing the dream
halcyon kite
a bot cant create an application, but somehow tupper box can create his children of bots
and you can go over the 32 bot limit for him
so idk
stark abyss
does anyone has experience with basic react native, and is willing to help me a litte?

How is the key to leave a space of an empty embed field without returning undefined?
solemn latch
Its something specific. Lemme google it.
solemn latch
Oh hey, finally figured out why it was so specific.
https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/200b/index.htm
umbral zealot
sounds like your webhook code is repeating itself in a loop or an event
tiny bough
and also this
this is my code
dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
console.log(Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path});
});
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
console.log(User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!);
con.query(UPDATE USERDATA SET LASTVOTE=${Date.now()} WHERE DISCORDID=${vote.user};);
});
solemn latch
You can only have 10 webhooks made per channel or guild can't remember
stark abyss
I think you are trying to do something that you aren't allowed to
feral aspen
if(!voiceChannel) return message.channel.send("You need to be in a voice channel to place music.");
const permissions = voiceChannel.permissionsFor(message.bot.user);```it's saying 'user' is undefined, did I do something wrong?
solemn latch
Its saying what your using user on is undefined I believe.
Message.bot doesn't exist
umbral zealot
I think you were looking for message.client

Can anyone help me to make my bot?
solemn latch
I can help with errors or specific problems
Not sure i can dedicate enough time to help you with an entire bot

@golden olive What language do you know?

umbral zealot
Step 1) learn a programming language
Step 2) choose a library in that language
Step 3) actually start writing the bot
Step 4) ask for specific help if you need it
@golden olive if you don't even know what a programming language is, we can't help you.

It will take a few weeks or months before you get used to it.

@stark abyss honestly I don't think anyone here can help you with react or react native. I'd suggest you join the /reactiflux community instead, they have a lot of people that can help.

guild not server

it was before rewrite

such an annyoing issue.

there are some server settings which i have never seen before

thats actually wild

only way is to test

the worse thing
i need that server for an event in like 2 days ;-;

i hate discord ffs
but i will still login tommo

you need to define command to use the variable command. so yes. make sure command is defined @halcyon kite
solemn latch
lmk when you figure it out legendary.

please* and also ill prob add that it sends me a server inv
small prairie
you got it

i am really curious
slender thistle
please* and also ill prob add that it sends me a server inv
@dusky mason bad
small prairie
Yes and against discord's tos

people still do that.....

i'll just delete the server if i rage lmfao

ohh that would save me a lot of tim
small prairie
you get the same guild properties

time*
small prairie
just none of the member ones if you have any of those in server info command

i love how huge my server info is

people have gotten banned from here for doing that iirc.
@solemn latch Yup and I might've happened to be the one handling a case like that

yeah.

i guess they were dumber then that lmfao

time to try

i never even put in send embed lol

#topgg-api ig
small prairie
Yup
dusky mason
im so big brain
no point of using this feature
since i have a problem with my intents
small prairie
i mean server add isnt a privileged intent
should it really be hard
dusky mason
not that
since im sending myself user data (like amount of users for example) it can't
since i don't have that intent
i do have it enabled
but i have some problem
slender thistle
Lesgo
dusky mason
i should add under
guild number : (guild)
since it dms me the number
alr @slender thistle time for the hard thing
the intents
slender thistle
gl
dusky mason
so i have this
and everything
and it's enabled in the portal
but look at this
it's not counting member datat
and im in that role
and i fixed this last time by enabling in the portal
but now it's enabled
it broke since i updated to the latest discord.py
slender thistle
Try to reenable it

how do you send a dm to a user regardless of the shard they're in? (discord.js v12)

on_guild_remove
dense patio
anyone?
solemn latch
broadcast eval it.
earnest phoenix
Vote tracker against of tos?
slender thistle
a
solemn latch
you might run into an issue where if a user is in 2 guilds with your bot on separate shards it will send 2 dms. so youll need a way around it.
dense patio
alright thanks
dusky mason
it says
none
and then if i do p!eval await ctx.send('hi')
this happens
kinda weird
slender thistle
It's not
dusky mason
slender thistle
You're just basically outputting he last returned value
slender thistle
print() doesn't return anything but instead writes to stdout
slender thistle
you can use redirect_stdout by some fucking library I don't remember
upper elm
so I asked this yesterday, but i want to ask again so i can get a second opinion, I'm looking into heroku databases and i want to store data like a currency system that i can easily acess and change. Should I use Redis or Postgres?

i mean i honestly don't care less,i don't even need eval
i thought like bots have it

i just made one
slender thistle
Well yeah, the idea is that you redirect stdout values from some point, print them, and then retrieve them to then post in a message from the bot
how hard it will be for you I can't say, but it was relatively simple for me with the amount of copypasting I did

Okay guys so I'm building a weapon command in my bot, when you attack with that weapon I want it to be deleted from user inventory, idk how to do it cause I cannot use DB.delete or var delete
I'm going crazy trying to find a solution lmao heeelp
upper elm
what language
solemn latch
whats the error
upper elm
so I asked this yesterday, but i want to ask again so i can get a second opinion, I'm looking into heroku databases and i want to store data like a currency system that i can easily acess and change. Should I use Redis or Postgres?
solemn latch
isnt redis an in memory database?
small prairie
@solemn latch Lmao the error fixed itself
Defo discord trying out something
had a small server outage too before that happened
north birch
what language
@upper elm JS
cinder patio
yes
solemn latch
solemn latch
why did you delete everything else
umbral zealot
this file
solemn latch
you had other stuff here
umbral zealot
this isn't valid JS
north birch
so I asked this yesterday, but i want to ask again so i can get a second opinion, I'm looking into heroku databases and i want to store data like a currency system that i can easily acess and change. Should I use Redis or Postgres? @upper elm
That's why i switched to AWS Lmao
umbral zealot
no
solemn latch
green means add, red means remove
umbral zealot
this is a "difference" indicator, as in, they're telling you, "add this line that has the +"
This is what happens when someone with no JS knowledge just blindly shovels code.
upper elm
That's why i switched to AWS Lmao
@north birch what's that i'm pretty new lol
umbral zealot
So why are you making a bot in JS, darling?
north birch
@north birch what's that i'm pretty new lol
@upper elm It's amazon vpc, it has free tier for 12month
solemn latch
redis is in memory storage. meaning if the redis restarts you lose that info afaik.
upper elm
alr
north birch
alr
@upper elm Try it out
upper elm
i will, thanks
north birch
You're welcome
umbral zealot
Ok well then learn javascript first
otherwise you're not making a bot, you're just mimicking someone else's code
which holds absolutely no value in this world.
Ok so?
solemn latch
there are plenty of decent 13 year old devs
umbral zealot
Then don't make a bot!
If you don't have time to learn, you don't have time to make a bot. it's that simple.
upper elm
im god damn 13
me too
umbral zealot
@covert gale Coding too complicated? Don't have time to learn? There are many thousands of bots available already and one of them is bound to have exactly the features you want. No programming necessary, no setup, no hosting required, all 100% free and ready for you to use! Just head on over to https://top.gg/ and checkout the various bots (there are thousands of them) and you'll most definitely find something for your needs.
solemn latch
lemme see if i can find it.
dense patio
i'm getting this error:
UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier
on this code:

but the message still sends and works fine, it just sends an error
(discord.js v12)
north birch
Guys ill building a weapon command, i want the weapon to delete after used but i dont know how to do it cause i cant do quickdb delete or using a var to clear cause the data are in a text
What do you guys suggest me?
solemn latch
oop, i lied. it was 2d
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HCboZHTyrw
dense patio
woo do you know what the issue is
solemn latch
ngl, ive yet to shard.
dense patio
lol
earnest phoenix
@dense patio the brackets are causing that
The () are part of the actual eval string and the other portion is a template expression
The expression gets run but the eval thing can't understand why the hell there is a random ()
umbral zealot
If you want to make your own bot you have to start by learning the language
earnest phoenix
afaik
earnest phoenix
remove the brackets ig
umbral zealot
it's like "I don't want to go to the restaurant, I want to make my own food" and then you don't understand what "preheating the oven" means. You can't have it both ways, either learn javascript first, or don't make a bot.
solemn latch
ah
upper elm
or any language you want that has a discord variation really
earnest phoenix
@dense patio also why are you evalling that anyways
dense patio
to make sure they get the dm regardless of the shard they're in
it sends a dm when they vote
earnest phoenix
user.send returns a Promise and you're trying to eval that Promise object on every single shard
solemn latch
he doesnt know what shard the user is on
earnest phoenix
to make sure they get the dm regardless of the shard they're in
then why is there a template expression
north birch
Oi please help lmao
earnest phoenix
smh
dense patio
now this:
Where is the non-defined variable?
solemn latch
the non defined variable?
north birch
Check the code for 'user'
north birch
the non defined variable?
@solemn latch LMAO Sorry bout that im not english LMAO
dense patio
yeah
earnest phoenix
bot off?
dense patio
and the thing i had before with broadcastEval worked
solemn latch
it was sending to the user?
dense patio
yep
solemn latch
was the user on the same shard the broadcast eval ran on?
solemn latch
then i dont think it worked, since it had the variable.
dense patio
there's only 1 shard atm, i'm just future proofing it
solemn latch
if the user wasnt on the same shard, i dont think it would have worked.
oh okay. well then yeah what you had before would work.
but you also dont need to broadcast eval it
you can just run it.
dense patio
i know
solemn latch
since its practically the same thing.
dense patio
but i want to get this done asap
with my other bot i was stuck for so long trying to figure this all out
caused a lot of mess
i haven't done anything with broadcast eval though so that's why i'm confused
north birch
Im looking for some help to make this command delete the weapon after it moves to equipped weapon, but idk how, if anybody have suggestions ping me:

async run (client, message, args, config) {
let weapons = db.fetch(`${message.author.id}_weapons`)
let equippedweapon = db.fetch(`${message.author.id}_equipweapon`)
if(armi === null) {armi === 'Youre pooooor!'};
if(!args[0]){return message.channel.send(`available weapon: ${weapons}`)}
if(args[0] === 'TestWeapon') {
message.channel.send('You equipped TestWeapon!')
db.set(`${message.author.id}_equipweapon`, 'TestWeapon')

It's not that bad but now transfering database it's...well...you know
@north birch True.

why does my bot not work when i use !kill @fair rover\the !kill works
but !kill @fair rover does not
feral aspen
You did not set an args[0]
umbral zealot
Yeah sure it's a hassle but, as a wise man once said, just because you've invested a lot of time in a mistake, doesn't mean you should hang on to it.
solemn latch
your also checking if content === !kill
not startswith
north birch
Yeah sure it's a hassle but, as a wise man once said, just because you've invested a lot of time in a mistake, doesn't mean you should hang on to it.
@umbral zealot Yeah ik but my friend just started playing it i dont want to transfer all data lmao
umbral zealot
time to learn I guess, or learn ot read their docs better. but quick.db has very little actual functionality over something like keyv, and is much slower than pretty much literally anything you can find out there Β―_(γ)_/Β―
north birch
But now forget about the quality of the database, is there a method that i can remove the "weapon" from the data without deleting all?
proper bolt
is quick.db one of those fs wrappers for json
solemn latch
get all the weapons, remove the one you want removed, set all the weapons.
feral aspen
But now forget about the quality of the database, there is a method that i can remove the "weapon" from the data without deleting all?
@north birch If you are starting small, use .Json
proper bolt
no
umbral zealot
N
proper bolt
dont use a json database
north birch
@north birch If you are starting small, use .Json
@feral aspen My database is .json
feral aspen
Yes true.
proper bolt
do it right once and dont worry about it
north birch
Well fck
proper bolt
oh isnt it sqlite
feral aspen
I used json and Ill be spending my entire life migrating to MySQL
umbral zealot
It's a wrapper around sqlite that stores stringified data.
umbral zealot
Anyways @north birch quick.db doesn't have a way to remove "only part of the data", so you'd need to get the data, modify it, then set it back
umbral zealot
if you want a wrapper that doesn't suck, look up Enmap instead (disclaimer, I made enmap)
solemn latch
get the weapons. remove the element you dont want, then set it.
north birch
Guys i got the concept but how i can actually do it LMAO
solemn latch
what part
umbral zealot
This is normal javascript manipulation
solemn latch
the getting part? the removing an element, or the setting part.
umbral zealot
removing something from an array or object is just.. code.
north birch
This is normal javascript manipulation
@umbral zealot I tried but my database, idk why, take all in a text file
It's not an object
umbral zealot
no no just fetch or get the data
north birch
I fetched it
umbral zealot
right so take that
north birch
Wait i try something
north birch
Well yes i did something wrong at the beginning It should work now
feral aspen
Just quick question, suppose I write a code in the ``` but I dont want it to all be the same color but all like different colors\
I put JS?
feral aspen
Thank you! π
If I want to make it all one color
What is it that I should do?
Like all red, all blue, all green, etc.
should I write the hex color?
feral aspen
Thanks.

So delete weapons['TestWeapon'] dont wanna actually delete the shit*y weapon out @solemn latch @feral aspen
north birch
Np
solemn latch
oh are you talking once youve gotten it?
north birch
This is the database console.log before and after
[
'TestWeapon',
'TestWeapon2',
'TestWeapon3'
]
solemn latch
I would filter out the item you dont want from the array.
north birch
I never did that before but i will try
thick gull
how do I get a member by ID?
guild > members > cache > get

how come that this code is not working? ```js
if(message.content.startsWith === !poke){
const pokeUser = message.mentions.members.first()
if(!pokeUser) return;
const exampleEmbed4 = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#9400D3')
.setTitle('**Pokes have been transferred!!**')
.setAuthor('Tendo Reactions')
.setDescription(`${message.author} poked ${kissUser} till he left holes in his body!!`)
.setFooter("Command created for Tendo!")
message.channel.send(exampleEmbed4)
}
yeah i only should use the prefix probably
cinder patio
It's a function
upper elm
I think it would be if message.content.startsWith('poke')
dusky mason
there are plenty of decent 13 year old devs

opal plank
stackoverflow is the cheat sheet wiki
north birch
shoot, i had a bad build
I see i sucks at filtering objects
solemn latch
north birch
I did not expect this for removing an object in that db LMAO
north birch
I see
prisma bramble
while i was testing my bots i found out even if i invite the bot using all the permissions except Admin (in this case im focusing on Embed Messages) , my bot is not able to send embed in channels where everyone is not allowed to embed links. and it causes my bot to crash. Any fix? it works fine if i invite the bot with Admin perms
prisma bramble
i mean, it cant send embedded messages. Most of the error checks returns an embed message in my bot. I have to go through each of them to remove the embeds if i want to fix this which i dont wanna do
solemn latch
yeah, I am unaware of the permission that would do that.
intresting. embed links removed indeed doesn't let bots send embed.
the fix would be to require the "embed links" permission with your bot.
you could also add a check if the bot has that permission, and give a generic error when it happens.
feral furnace
Guys i have a problem with my bot. I tried my command in windows but my command is not working in linux
i'm using shelljs in linux
cinder patio
Bremchu, use the isNaN function
feral furnace
chilly bison
eing?
@dreamy thistle if(isNaN(Number(deleteNumber))) // do something
feral furnace
i'm checking the function is executed or not, it says function is executed
it return stderr also
feral furnace
is there anyone has any idea?
i want to send dm to specific user
here is dm message
but it's not working on linux
north birch
i'm checking the function is executed or not, it says function is executed
@feral furnace I will just add a console.log when you want to check
feral furnace
@feral furnace I will just add a console.log when you want to check
@north birch i added console.log to check whether the function is executed or not. As you can see, function is executed
solemn latch
im confused, why not just process.exit() when you want to restart the bot when using a process manager.
earnest phoenix
@feral furnace How are you going to send a message after you restart the bot
You cant lmao
feral furnace
i can
earnest phoenix
Wtf?
earnest phoenix
Wtf
feral furnace
earnest phoenix
process.exit()
message.channel.send(βsuccessfully restarted botβ)
@dreamy thistle just do if(!deleteNumber)
north birch
@solemn latch What filter can i apply for excluding the specific weapon i used
dreamy thistle
@dreamy thistle just do if(!deleteNumber)
@earnest phoenix but thats for other case
solemn latch
filter(weapon => weapon != equippedWeapon)
dreamy thistle
i want a one who replys to ?clear asadsasd
dreamy thistle
hum
chilly bison
@dreamy thistle just do if(!deleteNumber)
@earnest phoenix if(!deleteNumber instanceof Number)
earnest phoenix
Why would you do that..?
north birch
filter(weapon => weapon != equippedWeapon)
@solemn latch For weapons you mean the name of the weapon or all weapons fetched?
dreamy thistle
cant you use β in javascript?
earnest phoenix
Yea you can
solemn latch
filter is a function that goes through every element of the array its reading from
weaponArray.filter(weapon => weapon != equippedWeapon);
the weapon => weapon != equippedWeapon gets run for each weapon in the weaponArray
north birch
It's..not working? i dont know why
north birch
im doing const newweapons = weapfilter.filter(weapfilter => weapons!= equippedweapon);
weapfilter = weapons
solemn latch
thats not the way it works.
solemn latch
your essentially creating a function within a function(callback)
so you need to use its own variables in that callback
weaponArray.filter(weapon => weapon != equippedWeapon);
weaponArray is seperate from weapon
so
const newweapons = weapfilter.filter(weapon => weapon != equippedweapon)
weapon => weapon != equippedweapon < is checked for each weapon in weapfilter
north birch
Okay
solemn latch
I think the description on this page is really good.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/filter
north birch
Sorry bout that i never did filter
solemn latch
np
its actually super common to have callbacks like this in code
its really useful to learn.
north birch
Perfect
solemn latch
lmk if it works

before I lose it - how do I get the role object from a role ID? Discord.py

@fierce arch you could use Guild.roles to get a list of roles and use one of discord.py's utility methods: ```py
message.guild.roles -> List[Role]
discord.utils.get(message.guild.roles, id=the_id)```
I think it goes like this, but you can review the docs for more.

@faint prism yeah i'm going to explore and fiddle with it over the weekend, it finally released
grizzled raven
would 2 open connections to a sqlite file be bad?
sudden pawn
who am i
earnest phoenix
yes @grizzled raven
however sqlite tries its best to be threadsafe
so when one connection does a query, the tables are locked and released once the query's finished iirc
which will result in, obviously, slower queries over multiple connections
sqlite3 handles concurrency very well though
so there shouldn't be anything noticable per se
i found this if you want to read more into it https://www.sqlite.org/lockingv3.html
msg.author.send(`\n> Byte Memory Usage: ${process.memoryUsage().heapUsed}\n> Bot Uptime:\n> Seconds: [${Math.floor(bot.uptime/1000)}]\n> Minutes: [${Math.floor(bot.uptime/1000/60)}]\n> Hours: [${Math.floor(bot.uptime/1000/60/60)}]\n> Days: [${Math.floor(bot.uptime/1000/60/60/24)}]`);
im not that good at math
how can i make it so
the number resets past 60/60/24/365

Intents.defualt() enables everything except presence and member data.

Look into the Intents class and see which one you need: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents
earnest phoenix
Bots will be kicked if they DM a user:
1. Join messages
2. Any type of automated message without consent
3. Any advertisements
whats wrong with join messages
sudden geyser
Then, when initializing the discord.Client class, pass a kwarg where intents is the key and the value is an instance of discord.Intents
valurim they're unwanted here.

i turned on its ability to download the member list
but my side doesn't seem to see it
earnest phoenix
ive seen plenty of official bots have join messages

Those rules are for this server

@earnest phoenix it means you cant have join messages here

Try restarting your bot. Also can you show your code where you initialize your client
