if anyone has experience with discord.js-light, i need some help with some errors i am getting while trying to use the voiceStateUpdate event
what i am trying to achieve is for my bot to leave the vc and clear the music queue when there are no other users in it, or clear the queue when manually disconnected it. i was able to achieve this with normal discord.js using this code
// If a user leaves or changes channels
if (oldState != null && oldState.channelID != newState.channelID) {
const serverQueue = client.queue.get(oldState.guild.id);
const channelInfo = oldState.guild.channels.fetch(oldState.channelID);
const botChannelID = oldState.guild.members.fetch(client.user.id).voice.channelID;
const usersInVC = channelInfo.members.filter(member => !member.user.bot).size;
// If the bot is the only user in the VC clear the queue and leave
if (channelInfo.members.has(client.user.id) && usersInVC < 1) {
if (serverQueue) {
if (serverQueue.twentyFourSeven) return;
let leaveEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor(0xff4a4a)
.setTitle(`๐ Left due to no other users being present in the VC.`);
serverQueue.textChannel.send(leaveEmbed);
if (serverQueue.connection.dispatcher) serverQueue.connection.dispatcher.destroy();
if (client.queue) client.queue.delete(oldState.guild.id);
}
channelInfo.leave();
// If the bot is not in a VC and there is a queue, clear the queue
} else if (botChannelID == null && serverQueue) {
let leaveEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor(0xff4a4a)
.setTitle(`๐ Left due to being manually disconnected.`);
serverQueue.textChannel.send(leaveEmbed);
if (client.queue) client.queue.delete(oldState.guild.id);
}
}
problem is, discord.js light sends a null response when someone disconnects, causing the code to error out, and i cant seem to find a way to make it detect the specifics i need it to with that
any help is appreciated
earnest phoenix
any way i can get the lyrics of asong?
scrape genius
if you google around you can also probably find alternative apis
ok

if anyone has experience with discord.js-light, i need some help with some error...
if(!oldState && newState) // user joined
if(oldState && !newState) // user left
if(oldState && newState) // user changed channel or changed something else
ok, thanks!

lunar sequoia
what is a partial user?
The library usuall drops events if the required data isn't cached already. For example, if a message was deleted and that particular message wasn't found in cache then the messageDelete event isn't fired. However, if you enable partials, you will start receiving the ID related to the event. For example, if a message was deleted but wasn't found in cache, the event will still be fired but, the caveat being that the message object passed to the event will only have the ID, in this case, the message ID. Head over to the docs to find an example with the messageReactionAdd event as well.
young flame
uh i have a question
is it possible to like list a persons warns AND the person who warned them the reason and time?
floral oracle
yes
earnest phoenix
if you keep track of it
a usual pattern for this would be to have a punishment object which has the following
type property that defines the punishment type (i.e. warn/ban/kick etc)
target property that defines the target of the punishment (user id)
issuer property that defines the person responsible for the punishment (user id)
timestamp property that defines the unix timestamp of the occurance
you can obviously throw in a reason and other shit in there
lunar sequoia
is it possible to give your discord bot a custom emoji on its status
No, bots do not have access to the user endpoint and cannot use custom status. So, you can neither have custom statuses nor emojis in your bot's status.
floral oracle
you're wrong on some of that
you can definitely give custom statuses to bots
it's been around longer than users even had the option @lunar sequoia
lunar sequoia
Umm no, when I say custom status, it is referring to the Custom status that users can set on their profiles. Bots have never had access to set this custom status however, you can set a status with the default PLAYING, WATCHING, LISTENING, etc.

hey, @south sinew, sorry for ping but it is still giving an error
south sinew
whats the error?

south sinew
ok, so timeouts is still undefined

i thought i changed it tho
wait.....
let me try smth
nvm i thought it was because i didnt save it
but still gave the error
south sinew
different or same?
prisma wren
same
south sinew
hmmm
just check over your code again and make sure that timeouts is still defined throughout
js is wack sometimes
south sinew
no

alr then they are all changed

hmm, I'm not too sure but try replacing the if condition to this.timeouts && this.timeouts.has()

Yup, give it a try now

What's the error now?

In your getCommand function, it's supposed to be this.commands.has

where?
lunar sequoia
Show me where line 31 is
lunar sequoia

prisma wren
so should i undo what you had me do earlier?

So, it should be this.commands.has()?this.commands.get():false
lunar sequoia
so should i undo what you had me do earlier?
No, not necessary. It shouldn't be an issue anyway.

so, it didnt work nor did it give me an error
when i did ?ping on my server, it didnt respond
but i havent received an error yet

Nah, as long as you're over the minimum age (which is 13 and 16 in some countries), you can verify your bot

you can get an id while you're underage though, no?

Yes, but Discord declined mine.
"We are unable to verify your identity because one or more of the documents you provided are not supported. Please try again."

It's government issued kids ID, I'm not sure why it's not accepted.

Change your password
prisma wren
will do
pale vessel
Log your variables
Make sure that the command was at least executed
If not then the problem is from somewhere else
prisma wren
its not letting me type in the debug thing
pale vessel
Just use console.log()
Add a console.log("test") to the first line of your ping command and try running it
If test appears in your console then the command has issues
prisma wren
no, it didnt
pale vessel
Change it to console.log(client, message, args);
pale vessel
Where did you put that
prisma wren
in the top of the ping.js file, should i have put it in the client.js file?

You put the test on there too?

try it again inside the first line of that function

Yes

Show your command

delete the other one or keep it
pale vessel
Keep it
pale vessel
So the command wasn't found
Try moving that console.log() one line above
Above the return
pale vessel
Run the command
pale vessel
Then your message event is broken

how do i fix it?

Hi

I doubt this would change anything since if the command wasn't found, it would return false which in this case it didn't
So it's somewhere else

I have posted a bot https://top.gg/bot/784608351119736832 but it is not showing in search of top.gg

Try changing `command` to `cmd`
in where?

Never mind, can you add console.log(message) on the first line of this function?
Before if

after this.on("message",

Hello, this question is targeted to people who have music bots.
Basically I have bot, and I started working on a music cog with lavalink. I am wanting to put these changes on my host but I have no clue where to start. My host is pebblehost and i have their 5 dollar a month bot plan. For lavalink do I need a dedicated server?
umbral zealot
Step 1) learn programming
Step 2) choose a library
Step 3) code the bot
If you're not going to learn programming, you're not making a music bot, you're just shovelling code, and you might as well just use Groovy.
Making a bot while copying code is like thinking you're an artist because you can do a puzzle.
lusty quest
you could use a GUI tool to write a bot. but writing is not really the right therm for it
lusty quest
you can run lavalink on the same server.

Hi ppl,
I want to do a command that plays the Snowgiving Radio in JS.
Problem is it is a m3u stream. Is there any way to play it anyways?
I tried ```js
channel.join()
.then(connection => {
const dispatcher = connection.play('http://ice55.securenetsystems.net/DASH45.m3u');
message.reply("Should Play")
dispatcher.on("end", end => {channel.leave()});
})
.catch(console.error);
But it doesnt play any Audiohelp
pure lion
@earnest phoenix dont use heroku, problem solved
reef mantle
hey happy
pure lion
refer to pins
reef mantle
the code you gave me shows an error
pure lion
are there any errors thrown?
sterile minnow
are there any errors thrown?
Nope just doesnt play somehow
sterile minnow
I guess it only supports mp3 and not m3u. Okay imma try that rq
pure lion
@reef mantle size is a number, the size of the discord collection
sterile minnow
Do it without .size i guess
sterile minnow
Doesnt help too. I guess it only supports MP3
pure lion
yeah id assume that
if you want higher quality you can always check if theres a higher bitrate
sterile minnow
But how do i play m3u ? Or convert it to mp3
sterile minnow
seems like
pure lion
huh
sterile minnow
I think i got it
lemme try
It seems like it works now
I just removed the .m3u
And the Quality is wow
pure lion
gg
sterile minnow
ty ^^
Gonna Continue the Command
But one question tho
Should i do a Broadcast where ppl subscribe or for every guild a own Player?
pure lion
what
pure lion
dont put it behind a paywall

No i mean discord.js Broadcast
pure lion
what is that?

hey guys how do i set the color of an embed in discord.py to random?
pretty sure you have to make a random color generator on your own. afaik i dont think there's a "RANDOM" in python discord

<@!189759562910400512> idk if this gives you an idea for future scaling but its ...
Interesting this is what I'm doing right now just with multiple "cache workers"
lusty quest
ok
green kestrel
So I can restart subsets of the shards rather than having to cold boot them all for an upgrade I can rolling restart them
lusty quest
does the broadcasting of the shardids could be managed over it? like you add a new one without having to reboot all of them

i want to make reason compulsory how do i do that? I mean like that: !warn <@user> (no reason)
and message channel send ('You should give a reason')
how do i that

How can I check if args[0] is a mention of a channel?
earnest phoenix
Use regex to check if it's a channel mention
molten yarrow
channel = message.mentions.channels.first();
@molten yarrow no
lunar sequoia
Or you could just check if the message contains a channel mention ^
dark steeple
if I use it like that, any args will count as the first channel mentioned
main trench
Thats why you check it
dark steeple
I will try to use regex just like the voltrex said
molten yarrow
if I use it like that, any args will count as the first channel mentioned
but that is args[0] ?
dark steeple
that way, any agrs would count. If I mentioned the channel in args [1] it would pick up in the same way, but I just want to take args [0]
main trench
How the arg system works is if I do "!channel #channel then say text" it will only detect args[0] which is the channel
With args[1] being the text it won't respond to it
Unless you code it to

Hi,
I have a issue with Playing audio with my Bot on NodeJS v14.15.0. Somehow it says i dont have a Opus Module even tho i have @discordjs/opus installed and if i try opusscript it gives me a Chunk full of Error
young flame
if you keep track of it
how would i store it
sterile minnow
Can anyone help me with this Opus issue?
lusty quest
would love to but i make a big circle around music bots bcs they are a pain in the ass
lusty quest
how would i store it
there are so many ways, like Databases, maps (only if it doesnt need to be persistant)
lusty quest
why?
young flame
what database should i do though
lusty quest
what did you want to store?
young flame
i would just use MoonSQL but some of the functions im storing in it would contradict what i want to store

what did you want to store?
im making a warn command that stores the reason points the person who warned them and the person who got warned

sterile minnow
Server: 14 | PC: 15
lusty quest
how would you store multiple things though
i would use a unique id as key and then add the Warn reason, Warned user id, and Moderator User ID to it
for the unique id i would just use guild.id+user.id
sterile minnow
Now its both 15
lusty quest
i tried it though
did you tryed to make the db call async?
young flame
no?
lusty quest
also your syntax is wrong
wise hawk
look at the example Superbrain posted above and your way of storing
young flame
lusty quest
db.set(`warned_${message.guild.id}`,{user:userid,points:points,reason:reason,issuer:issuer})
then you can also call it by db.get(`warned_YOURGUILDID.user`)as example
lusty quest
Now its both 15
does it work now?
sterile minnow
does it work now?
Nope
lusty quest
did you updated all packages on the server?
sterile minnow
It doesnt complain now but it doesnt play any audio
lusty quest
remove the node_modules folder and run npm install
sterile minnow
Everything is up to date. Gonna try
Doesnt help
It just doesnt play any audio
But the URL works
cuz my PC works with it
And no errors at all
The URL even works with wget
lusty quest
strange

@lusty quest is there a way to like
make a number then each time they get warned it goes from 1 - 2

I'm not sure if your eval is safe from token leak
earnest phoenix
there's no point in trying to hide the token
tranquil drum
evaling client[atob('dG9rZW4=')] will prob still leak it
earnest phoenix
this
snow urchin
when would i EVER need to eval that lol
tranquil drum
why bother with trying to hide it then?
earnest phoenix
atob?
earnest phoenix
A simple way to hide the token is to Iterate through the output and replace all instances of the token
there's still a ton of ways to access it
@earnest phoenix except it's a string and strings can be transformed
tranquil drum
only on browsers iirc
ah true, you could always Buffer.from('blabla', 'base64').toString()
pale vessel
print the letters in each line
earnest phoenix
<@456226577798135808> except it's a string and strings can be transformed
What?
tranquil drum
I don't use node too much haha, just front end stuff
earnest phoenix
there's no point in trying to hide the token, just don't make a dumb bitch move to give eval access to someone you don't trust
tranquil drum
hot take: just don't have an eval command ๐ณ
earnest phoenix
What?
i can transform the token into inserting a space after every character, a zero, or anything really
attackers are way more creative than that though
I hide my token like this, there's literally no possible way to reveal the token
tranquil drum
I hide my token like this, there's literally no possible way to reveal the token
i mean just do what cry said
your regex won't catch it
earnest phoenix
sudden geyser
Heck, you could even just message.channel.send(...) the token
Don't bother trying to hide your token
It's a waste of time.
earnest phoenix
I did that, doesn't send the token
tranquil drum
<:waitWhat:622740549673418782>
transform the token in any reversible way and the regex won't see it
and the attacker can transform it back
sudden geyser
Voltrex there are still a number of ways to send it. It's not worth the time to try disguising it, because your #1 protection should be good enough to limit who can use the command anyway
heady sable

you'd split by ""

if you're using discord.js, iterate over client.guilds.cache
silent cloud
I decided this way, because after a long bot work, the status simply disappears
earnest phoenix
your regex doesn't detect it
Oh you meant that way?
tribal siren
if you're using discord.js, iterate over client.guilds.cache
client.guilds.cache.forEach(g => message.channel.send(g.join(โ\nโ))
Like this?
fringe marten

Yea that way is impossible to hide the token from

client.guilds.cache.forEach(g => message.channel.send(g.join(โ\nโ))
no, that will send 500 messages if you have 500 guilds

status may disappear when your bot disconnects and reconnects

you can only send 5 messages per 5 seconds

if you dont have a dynamic status, you can set the status in the client options, that way it will never reset because its automatically set again on every reconnect

}, 50000)
this is an example
then also set the activity inside your interval
inside the set activity just pass the list with the random generated index

Before you make a Discord Bot, you should have a good understanding of JavaScript. This means you should have a basic understanding of the following topics:
- proper syntax
- debuging code
- basic features (vars, arrays, objects, functions)
- read and understand docs
- nodejs module system
As much as we'd like to assist everyone with making their bots, we rarely have the time and/or patience to handhold beginners through learning javascript. We highly recommend understanding the basics before trying to make bots, which use advanced programming concepts.
Here are good resources to learn both Javascript and NodeJS:
Javascriptinfo: https://javascript.info/
Codecademy: https://www.codecademy.com/learn/javascript
FreeCodeCamp: https://www.freecodecamp.org/
Udemy: https://www.udemy.com/javascript-essentials/
Eloquent JavaScript, free book: http://eloquentjavascript.net/
You-Dont-Know-JS: https://github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS
NodeSchool: https://nodeschool.io/
CodeSchool: https://www.codeschool.com/courses/real-time-web-with-node-js
Evie's Accelerated JS: https://js.evie.dev/
Please take a couple of weeks/months to get acquainted with the language before trying to make bots!

Can you please learn javascript first
And then once you're done, follow a tutorial for discord.js bots
because... we're not going to handhold you through the entire process, here.

Please don't ignore the fact that if you do not know javascript, you will not be able to make a bot.

json is an object notation spec that should be parsed the same way by everything that claims to support it

Anyone knows how to set up a reverse proxy using cloudflare workers?
earnest phoenix

tranquil drum
Anyone knows how to set up a reverse proxy using cloudflare workers?
are you only using http traffic?
lusty quest
Just to paste this link where it is .setImage ?
you can use xpath to get the path inside the json to get the image out of it

bc it only makes more and more erorrs
here. let's be very thorough in this answer.
Why shouldnโt I use a JSON file as a database?
A JSON file is not suitable for use as a database for several reasons.
Firstly, you will incur a major performance hit as you need to read from and write to the file on each query and modification. This brings a major performance impact especially when the amount of data increases.
Second, you cannot concurrently write to a JSON file - only one write can be performed at a time. This is part of what causes the performance impact, but perhaps more importantly may introduce unexpected results and even file corruption.
JSON files are also human readable and easily accessible by end users. This means that your database and application will be vulnerable to attacks, especially as database reads are rarely checked for malicious code (Which usually happens on write).
What should I use instead?
An actual database, to put it bluntly. SQL, NoSQL, whatever takes your fancy. Some SQL databases are SQLite, PostgreSQL and MariaDB, while NoSQL databases include things like MongoDB, RethinkDB, ArangoDB and many more. If you want the easy way out, check out Enmap.
What can I use a JSON file for?
JSON files are best used to store static data, in other words data that doesnโt need to change often or programmatically. In practice, this means configuration and other application data that needs to be defined by a human - which is what JSON excels at. If you want something easy, use enmap.

OMG its simple coding

are you only using http traffic?
Https
tranquil drum
right
tranquil drum
why do you need a reverse proxy?
leaden cliff
@earnest phoenix Thank you for telling me to remove the colon.
umbral zealot
