hollow sedge
crimson vapor
the code isn't that bad
quartz kindle
shows this
hollow sedge
ill look into it tho
solemn latch
wrong one
quartz kindle
Lol
opal plank
why is query like that and why you putting it in {} ?
stark viper
hello Guys can someone tell me how i let the bot create an Invite to the channel ?
hollow sedge
lol
earnest phoenix
May someone fix this and help me https://repl.it/join/kqxucznf-alf128mills
hollow sedge
oh god
solemn latch
docs @stark viper
stark viper
i searched but it doesnt work
elder loom
got your token @earnest phoenix
crimson vapor
yes I did
quartz kindle
why is query like that and why you putting it in {} ?
thats how jsdoc says to do lol
solemn latch
what did you try
earnest phoenix
It hasn’t in it @elder loom
hollow sedge
ngl this is pretty cool
crimson vapor
to use it actually and see how shit it is
opal plank
you dont need it that way
hollow sedge
million
earnest phoenix
Can someone help? https://repl.it/join/kqxucznf-alf128mills
crimson vapor
yes
hollow sedge
maybe add tmp to your gitignore if you arent going to put anything in it
stark viper
channel.createInvite({maxAge: 0})``` this @solemn latchno
opal plank
crimson vapor
read the code
earnest phoenix
Can someone help? https://repl.it/join/kqxucznf-alf128mills
crimson vapor
there is a placeholder for a reason tho
earnest phoenix
Can someone help? https://repl.it/join/kqxucznf-alf128mills
misty sigil
@earnest phoenix please can you stop
misty sigil
you're literally spamming
opal plank
theres no need for whatever the heck that {} does lmao
quartz kindle
its jsdoc typings
solemn latch
@stark viper i dont see anything wrong with that. Did it error?
quartz kindle
probably for when you generate docs from jsdoc
stark viper
no
quartz kindle
but logically it should show somewhere in vsc too
stark viper
how can i send the invite then
solemn latch
@stark viper it just creates the invite, it doesn't send it.
opal plank
stark viper
so how i send it
opal plank
doing @param just gives me intellisence, but the actual type comes from the interface
quartz kindle
yes they show correctly in the typings thingy, just not in the jsdoc description
crimson vapor
@hollow sedge you should write a wrapper that introduces schemas
stark viper
put it in a variable ?
solemn latch
Channel.send(invite.url)
hollow sedge
<@!295014158771159040> you should write a wrapper that introduces schemas
oh god
ok
that sounds fun
crimson vapor
lol
hollow sedge
i just have to learn node.js first
hollow sedge
jk i already know some JS
opal plank
yeah the one above is fine, ts being good ts, the issue is the bottom, i guess its a alias?
crimson vapor
oh ok good
solemn latch
Createinvite is a promise, so it'll need to be awaited/then
hollow sedge
i think i can figure it out
opal plank
lemme do a 5 min research about it rq
crimson vapor
also if you are logging stuff use https://github.com/million900o/loggers
opal plank
its 2 different things
opal plank
type and name
hollow sedge
why do you h ave your own logger
opal plank
{type} Name
quartz kindle
{type} Name
ik
crimson vapor
loggers
quartz kindle
just wondering why type doesnt show anywhere
opal plank
crimson vapor
thats why
opal plank
i assume this is the shitty version of ts where you import types and assign them as a different thing
hollow sedge
lol
opal plank
like my example here
hollow sedge
i guess i got to install millions trash modules
to add to his trash db
no offense
opal plank
crimson vapor
it was made as a joke
opal plank
Query is the new type, but its an extension of a primitive type string
crimson vapor
so no offence taken
opal plank
thats at least what im interpreting from this
hollow sedge
ok good
opal plank
this is one of the reasons i hate jsdocs
imagine typing that for structures that are dynamic from apis?
like calling parents
solemn latch
Mom? Hello?
opal plank
imagine fetching channel, then you need to add interface for guild inside that too cuz channel is child of guild(just an example) and make it optional
omg, yeah, no ty
wait, i just noticed
tim is using TS
@quartz kindle stay on the dark side, we can just transpile our big brein code to vanilla js 
quartz kindle
im not using ts
opal plank
duit
stark viper
in js how to do im new in js ...
quartz kindle
nu
quartz kindle
by the way
opal plank
boom, transpile
quartz kindle
if you're wondering wtf am i working on
time = performance.now();
result = array.find(n => n.includes("Eris"));
console.log(performance.now() - time);
console.log(result);
// => 10.449599981307983
// => 136199 Eris
time = performance.now();
result = sb.find("Eris");
console.log(performance.now() - time);
console.log(result);
// => 0.38879990577697754
// => 136199 Eris
// ~ 30x faster
opal plank
```js
time = performance.now();
result = array.find(n => n.includes("Eris"));
co...
looks like a way to shameless advertise your lib as being better than the other discord js libs
opal plank
https://alebot.is-inside.me/fardsqF9.png
im calling 911
quartz kindle
this has nothing to do with discord lmao
opal plank
but eris though
stark viper
module.exports = (client, guild) => {
const url1 = (`${guild.iconURL()}`);
const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor("GREEN")
if(url1.startsWith("https://cdn.discordapp.com")){
embed.setThumbnail(url1)
}
embed.addField("I Joined a New Guild", `${guild.name}`, true)
.addField(`GuildId`, `${guild.id}`)
var channel = guild.channels.first;
var invite = channel.createInvite({maxAge: 0});
embed.addField(`GuildInvite`, `${invite.url}`);
client.channels.fetch(channels["JL-LOGS"]).then(channel => channel.send(embed));
};``` can anyone say me whats wron there ...?Eris is an asteroid / minor planet
hollow sedge
@crimson vapor https://github.com/Million900o/jason.db/blob/e96be3a748a291521b30b06b6cb6fc7dcd136060/lib/Collection.js#L64, this is wrong
hollow sedge
this forces you to use a string as a key
quartz kindle
xD
fair scaffold
guys how i can add my bot in top.hh .._..
quartz kindle
basically there is a database of asteroids that has 500k+ items
opal plank
performance on asteroids though
quartz kindle
ye
opal plank
you spiked my interested
quartz kindle
js strings are fast
opal plank
how do you even calculate a performance of an asteroid?:
umbral zealot
How isn't it working, Luke? What's the problem?
quartz kindle
how do you even calculate a performance of an asteroid?:
lmao
the performance is in searching for an asteroid by name
opal plank
ik
quartz kindle
i'll asteroid you
opal plank
imagine not using postgres
stark viper
the problem is the bot is sending nothing... and the error says there is something at createinvite
opal plank
actually cassandra might be best for it
quartz kindle
can postgres do full string seach in 0.3ms
quartz kindle
without indexing
earnest phoenix
whats a good place to host bots
quartz kindle
thats the whole point
earnest phoenix
?
quartz kindle
true full text seach cant really index properly without wasting a ton of memory
opal plank
which one do you want a test on?
quartz kindle
im just doing what grep does, but in memory
opal plank
i could try redis for memory performance test
quartz kindle
sure
opal plank
lets see
quartz kindle
well of course a fully featured db will probably be faster
but then you have network overhead
stark viper
var invite = channel.CreateInvite({maxAge: 0});

there's still a minimum overhead

hmmm
main trench
@stark viper CreateInvite doesn't seem to be a function
stark viper
```js
module.exports = (client, guild) => {
const url1 = (`${guild.iconURL(...
code
it is
stark viper
i`ll try
umbral zealot
There's also the fact that channel is undefined
main trench
And message
umbral zealot
It's first() not first when getting the first thing in a collection. it's a method not a property.
stark viper
okay
main trench
So essentially just ```let Channel = message.mentions.channels.first()
Channel.createInvite({maxAge: 0});```
opal plank
@quartz kindle 4 miliseconds with a full count search
main trench
Deep
pale vessel
no performance.now() REEEE ERWIN
main trench
Actually not even mention its just message.channel.createInvite
pale vessel
I demand precision
quartz kindle
<@!180112943612952577> 4 miliseconds with a full count search
how big is the db?
opal plank
lets see
actually
nono
you want big?
i'll give you big
one sec
imma pull stats from the twitch abuser
quartz kindle
Lol
stark viper
i try it now
earnest phoenix
owo what's Temporal
quartz kindle
anyway we're comparing apples with oranges here
hollow sedge
sounds like some time travel thing
earnest phoenix
smth mentioned on the MDN pages for JS Date
stark viper
so how to create a invite to a guild with guild.
main trench
I think just message.channel.createInvite will work @stark viper
stark viper
not with guild.channel ?
earnest phoenix
@stark viper you arent requiring any argument in your functions to be message
opal plank
@quartz kindle
earnest phoenix
So message should be undefined in your function
earnest phoenix
It is pointless to get guilds or channels from the args since you can just do message.guild or message.channel
stark viper
what do youz mean im new in js sry
opal plank
as much as it pains to me so say this, learn js first
@stark viper 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!
earnest phoenix
Did you just copy paste the pins
stark viper
i understood js but not how to work with the create invite
opal plank
no, i have my own tag #265156322012561408
createInvite() should return a string iirc
not sure whats the fuss
quartz kindle
800+ ms on 15 mil, 11 on estimate
so following that average, it would be 80ms for 1.5 mil, ~25ms for 500k
but anyway thats just counting them right? just iterating over them and incrementing a value, not doing a string search
opal plank
almost 4 times as performant ?
oh
i forgot
let me do a fuzzy search
let me pick my own user id from the db
quartz kindle
the asteroids data im working with is 500k items
although they are small items, around 10-20 chars each
stark viper
yeah and then invite.url right ?
quartz kindle
about 10mb total
opal plank
imma test on 15 mil, should be a good match
quartz kindle
a full regex string search takes ~4ms
stark viper
technicly this should work right ```js
module.exports = (client, guild) => {
const url1 = (${guild.iconURL()});
const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor("GREEN")
if(url1.startsWith("https://cdn.discordapp.com")){
embed.setThumbnail(url1)
}
embed.addField("I Joined a New Guild", ${guild.name}, true)
.addField(GuildId, ${guild.id})
var channel = guild.channels.first();
var invite = channel.createInvite({maxAge: 0});
embed.addField(GuildInvite, ${invite.url});
client.channels.fetch(channels["JL-LOGS"]).then(channel => channel.send(embed));
};```
crimson vapor
@hollow sedge you can't add a number to an object's property can you?
opal plank
we may have a problem
crimson vapor
what is the problem
earnest phoenix
createInvite() should return a string iirc
No it returns a Promise
Why would it not
opal plank
No it returns a Promise
sudden geyser
as much as it pains to me so say this, learn js first
does it really hurt
earnest phoenix
whole knot
😂
stark viper
i tried it multiple times and this is why im asking
crimson vapor
did it work?
crimson vapor
yes

earnest phoenix
@stark viper bruh that function is not run
crimson vapor
lets ask Erwin
earnest phoenix
Read the line where you defined the variable channel
Tell me if it looks correct
opal plank
im busy comparing apples and asteroids with @quartz kindle
hollow sedge
wait what is this
quartz kindle
im busy comparing apples and asteroids with <@!180112943612952577>
lmao. btw is it normal that if you do string | Array in .d.ts it shows up as any in vsc?
crimson vapor
wdym
hollow sedge
why not just JSON.stringify it
crimson vapor
umm
lucid mirage
Tell me if it looks correct
Think it looks correctly. Working with @stark viper
crimson vapor
because key is a fucking string or number
hollow sedge
but why are you splitting on "." then?
crimson vapor
for nesting objects
opal plank
lmao. btw is it normal that if you do `string | Array` in .d.ts it shows up as `...
Array is not a type iirc
string[]
earnest phoenix
@lucid mirage bruh collection.first is a function and there are no parenthesis after the word function
crimson vapor
but why are you splitting on "." then?
thats flaze's code for nesting objects
opal plank
since you didnt declare what Type that is, it shows as any
hollow sedge
oh
earnest phoenix
Wait is first even a function?
stark viper
but if we type .first() it says its not a function
earnest phoenix
I mean if you forget the parenthesis JS should put the function as the variable value
quartz kindle
since you didnt declare what Type that is, it shows as any
still shows up as any
earnest phoenix
But channel's value is undefined
earnest phoenix
but if we type .first() it says its not a function
So guild.channels.first is undefined smh 
hollow sedge
@crimson vapor idk if i can do this lol i cant even understand what this is
crimson vapor
oof
stark viper
Yes
earnest phoenix
Can you show me your command handler
crimson vapor
if you don't want to then don't
quartz kindle
since you didnt declare what Type that is, it shows as any
ah the Iterable is making it show as any
lucid mirage
Can you show me your command handler
What do u mean with commandhandler 🤔
quartz kindle
do i need to declate an interface for iterable? i thought its built in
stark viper
:panik:
earnest phoenix
A good dev should know
lucid mirage
Yea, but explain pls
crimson vapor
he wants to know how you handle commands
earnest phoenix
It basically the stuff that automatically handles commands instead of having to go and put the code for if the command is x then run manually for every single command
opal plank
@quartz kindle 275, 15 million, fuzzy string match
opal plank
ah the Iterable is making it show as any
iteratable you need to cast iirc most of the times
specially with objects
stark viper
i dont find it
quartz kindle
<@!180112943612952577> 275, 15 million, fuzzy string match
not bad
so 27 for 1.5mil, 9 for 500k
opal plank
still less performant than yours
stark viper
so basicaly i dont even know what you mean
opal plank
thats quite an accomplishment, looking that this is an official postgres addon
earnest phoenix
An example of a command handler:
// when bot start
for (let filename of fs.readdirSync("./commands")) {
let data = require(`./commands/${filename}`);
bot.commands.set(data.name, data);
}
// message event
bot.on("message", (message) => {
// few lines of wizardry
bot.commands.get(command).execute(bot, message, args);
});
OH GOD
I JUST LEAKED MY FUCKING COMMAND HANDLER AAAAAAAAA
crimson vapor
function CommandHandler (message, args, command) {
if (!command) return
if (command.requiredPerms && !message.member.hasPermission(command.requiredPerms)) return
try {
command.run(message, args)
} catch (err) {
message.client.logger.error(err)
message.client.responses.errorEmbed(message, err)
}
};
``` command handlerwe dont have it like this
umbral zealot
lol the command handler mostly everyone uses
stable eagle
is there any better one
crimson vapor
nah command handlers should handle everything except the execution of the command
I mean like perms checks
quartz kindle
iteratable you need to cast iirc most of the times
i figured it out
i need to type it with the type
string | Iterable<string>
opal plank
i figured it out
wait i thought you were doing an array
array should automatically pickup
try
type thing = string | string[]
it works as an iterable?
opal plank
yup
quartz kindle
cool
crimson vapor
Tim why not just learn ts?
opal plank
it knows its an array, so it pulls
you can do custom sets too
MyInterface[]
for example
and it'll know its an array populated of MyInterfaces
opal plank
its what i said, usually its like that with objects
try to avoid Object.assign() and .push()
those get ignored
quartz kindle
loops work so its fine
opal plank
on those when it returns any, even though you dont want it, just type cast it
quartz kindle
earnest phoenix
is it normal for snipe to record like this?

<GuildMember>.hasPermission(...) is what you're looking for: https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildMember?scrollTo=hasPermission

You also don't need to wrap it in a promise because there's no promise returned.

I did the command called create mute role, but the command creates a mute role and prevents the role from writing to the channels, while clearing/resetting the permissions of other channels. How can i fix this?

opal plank
use a map my man
let snipes = new Map();
on msg delete =>
snipes.set(channel.id, message);
////
on command snipe!
snipes.get(channel.id)
@earnest phoenix you're overcomplicating your code
.set() overrides
sudden geyser
message.member is a GuildMember instance, so call .hasPermission() on it with "ADMINISTRATOR" as the argument to check if the user has the admin permission.
opal plank
also if any of those comes in there, its either a bot or a modded client
users cannot send embeds
earnest phoenix
for bot
opal plank
not sure why you want to record bot messages, but you do you
my point still stands
you can do a snipe command in 3 lines
new map()
map.set(channel.id, message)
message.channel.send(map.get(channel.id) ?? 'Nothing to snipe')```why do you need it to be a promise?
just return the actual value
crimson vapor
don't cache everything
just cache content author and time
and purge cache after an hour
crimson vapor
what the fuck
sudden geyser
also that prefix + the ping command is a bit suspect
crimson vapor

cunning stream
hey
i need some help with my music bot
it's with ytdl

@crimson vapor why not? Make an embed with everything you need and then make a setInterval with a check to see if the sentTimrstamp is higher than date.now + 1h, if it is, delete it

how do I do it https://cdn.yxridev.com/u/DJrOl9uw.png
this is pure chaos
if even ONE of those things fail you fucked
obtuse jolt
yeah I know
opal plank
use conditional chaining or proper checks
quartz kindle
lmao
opal plank
spoonfeed, rules
obtuse jolt
fucking
opal plank
obtuse jolt
I genuinely might leave this server it's that helpful
crimson vapor
imo kinda
hollow sedge
yeah i hate this server
opal plank
i can point you towards the right direction but blatently asking for code is just a bit too much
crimson vapor
not 100% but enough
crimson vapor
just paste examples
earnest phoenix
I did the command called create mute role, but the command creates a mute role a...
Can someone help please?
opal plank
just paste examples
yeah, d.js has no examples whatsoever in their docs
opal plank
i was being sarcastic
hollow sedge
nice job
crimson vapor
ok ok
opal plank
they usually have 2-3 examples per thing
hollow sedge
the discordjs.guide thing literally tells you everything
obtuse jolt
I know how to code I just really cba to sit here for 3 hours trying things until I get it right
obtuse jolt
you dont say
opal plank
well i legit just told you that if your promise fails you will get errors, which instead of fixing, you simply rteplied with i dont care, give me code
obtuse jolt
yeah beacuse I don't
hollow sedge
there are two things you can do when you get stuck:
- Take a break
- Learn how to do it properly
obtuse jolt
this command doesnt affect my bot in any way if it fails
opal plank
obtuse jolt
whitenames
crimson vapor
who just dotposted
hollow sedge
sorry i forgot:
3. Go on #development and beg for code
crimson vapor
alright
opal plank
but you.... nvm
crimson vapor
client.channels.fetch('ID').then(e => if (e) e.messages.fetch('ID').then(f => if (f) f.edit() ) probably
opal plank
wrong
opal plank
that'll error
crimson vapor
wait how
crimson vapor
bruh
viscid leaf
opal plank
still callback hell and you might stop at the first bit
use await for the love of god
hollow prawn
are discord audit logs reliable to use rn?
hollow prawn
in what case is the no
crimson vapor
no
opal plank
invites, bans, kicks, no?
crimson vapor
why would I use await for an example?
opal plank
why would u use a callback hell instead of async?
rule of the thumb, never use more than one .then
hollow prawn
hmm then how would I go around for the invites, bans and kicks for audit logs?
opal plank
looks ugly, is ugly, callback hell, stinky
Promise.resolveAll() is a thing btw
so you dont have to do that ugly looking thing
crimson vapor
never used Promise.anything
crimson vapor
ye ik
opal plank
actually
race might be better
but not even i used that more than once
actually, nvm
thats not used in this case
pale vessel
promise.all is so good
crimson vapor
I think ive only used it once
quartz kindle
im trying to come up with an example of using my thing in a for loop
but i cant think of any use case
lmao
besides console.logging
opal plank
im trying to come up with an example of using my thing in a for loop
for(let item in wholedatabase) twitch.api.send('TwitchSpam goes BRRR, erwin sends his regards' + item);```lmao
opal plank
i mean, what if it returns an object?
yes
also that'll never work
id === true/false?
that'll never work
quartz kindle
lmao
opal plank
you are comparting a string to true or false
crimson vapor
LMFAO
quartz kindle
promisifying that wont help with anything
you can directly return the thing
no need for promise
quartz kindle
if you want to return a promise response from a sync function, there is Promise.resolve()
opal plank
he doesnt even need a promise in that case though, as long as the member is cached
otherwise he'd have to fetch it
crimson vapor
no reason for message.member to not be cached tho right
quartz kindle
ye but if hes using the check function in a promise way, because some other instance of check needs to be a promise
crimson vapor
oh right
quartz kindle
he can do that
crimson vapor
hmmm
opal plank
lemme double check, but im fairly certain you can
crimson vapor
im pretty sure he is gonna ask the same question again
quartz kindle
for example
pure lion
ok so i have my ts files in a dir and when i require them it imports the client with all the intellisense but on run i get a SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module. This was working a few minutes ago but upon recent commits it started throwing that
crimson vapor
oh no
opal plank
.then only chains on promises, i could've sworn.......
sudden geyser
where are you getting message from
opal plank
holdup
sudden geyser
and why are you using assignment over comparison
opal plank
@earnest phoenix 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!]
crimson vapor
and why is it a fucking promise
opal plank
back on track, its annoying that .then() doesnt work in this case
crimson vapor
message.author isn't a promise tho
opal plank
im not promisifying it
crimson vapor
why would .then work on message.author then
crimson vapor
I thought you could only .then on a promise
opal plank
correct
quartz kindle
function whatever(data) {
if(cache.has(data)) return cache.get(data) // not a promise
else return api.fetch(data) // a promise
}
result = await whatever(x)
``` in this situation for example, await will work for both the sync and the async code. but its more semantically correct to do this instead ```js
function whatever(data) {
if(cache.has(data)) return Promise.resolve(cache.get(data)) // a promise
else return api.fetch(data) // a promise
}
result = await whatever(x) // it will always return a promise, and not only sometimes
though i was under the false impression you could use it on functions too
crimson vapor
oh
opal plank
```js
function whatever(data) {
if(cache.has(data)) return cache.get(data) // ...
yeah thats right
crimson vapor
thats actually smart
never seen a usecase for that but it makes dealing with data so much easier
opal plank
i would personally do it differently though
crimson vapor
how would you do it?
opal plank
function whatever() {
new Promise(resolve, reject => {
if(cache.has(data)) resolve(cache.get(data));
else api.fetch(data).then((a) => { if(a) resolve(a) else reject()})
})
}```i think that should work?
you resolving everything under a single promise
earnest phoenix
You forgot to wrap the parameters between ()
quartz kindle
thats another option yes, but for example if you're gonna do a simple check like if(this.busy) return at the beginning of the function, there is no need to create a new Promise just to immediately return
opal plank
fair
quartz kindle
discord.js has a few cases like that
opal plank
i also forgot a return in the new promise
quartz kindle
xD
crimson vapor
Tim do you have computer science degree?
opal plank
yeah tim the master of counter strike
crimson vapor
lol
opal plank
u did write cs though, cant blame me for that one
crimson vapor
no
I just assumed that in #development cs would stand for computer science not counter strike
but you're right ya never know
opal plank
acronyms are annoying, sometimes they mean multiple things, context is a bitch lol
quartz kindle
Tim do you have computer science degree?
nope
earnest phoenix
whats ur major
quartz kindle
i never finished highschool
opal plank
im a major asshole/idiot
quartz kindle
ye
crimson vapor
bruh
crimson vapor
^
quartz kindle
family reasons
opal plank
yet here he is, carrying the whole channel/server
earnest phoenix
u work somewhere?
opal plank
degree in what?
earnest phoenix
ah okay
opal plank
diploma? or univertsity?
earnest phoenix
Where do u freelancer for some good cash? @quartz kindle
I thought tim worked at NASA
crimson vapor
I assumed you would have said "yes I have an X in X"
earnest phoenix
MC-Market freelancing isnt so profitable
quartz kindle
Where do u freelancer for some good cash? <@!180112943612952577>
no idea, i only get stupid jobs and people who hate paying
earnest phoenix
Same here..
opal plank
i only finished school in canada, thats about it, i got accepted into some uni's there but being a foreigner and studying there you pay a lot more than national students, so i never done it. Just like tim, im a freelancer
earnest phoenix
Discord is just being discord

Most of the recent ones were from the contributor table
earnest phoenix
Wait where are my commits bruv
crimson vapor
I always just commit "yes"
cba to think of names for commits when I do like 100 changes at once
opal plank
jesus you guys are on fire

hollow sedge
It takes like 5 seconds to write a description
crimson vapor
think thats bad? checkout my ACTUAL repo for the company im working for rn

opal plank
when the client doesnt give 2 fucks about the code, only about its usability
sudden geyser
think thats bad? checkout my ACTUAL repo for the company im working for rn
that's just a crime
honest perch
Tim btw github darkmode exists
honest perch
Yes but they did it

@honest perch can you just revert to before the error happened.
opal plank
yes
honest perch
No
opal plank
it makes getting a job a lot easier
honest perch
I'm in bed
crimson vapor
LOL
opal plank
<@647495722148823061> can you just revert to before the error happened.
you can do it
just change the head to that commit version
pure lion
I don't want to fuck shit up further.
honest perch
Blame it on matt
pure lion
I don't even know when it broke.
crimson vapor
I don't want to fuck shit up further.
I agree with this statement
opal plank
it would happen anyway if they reverted
earnest phoenix
Github's linter is too fucking drunk
opal plank
wait, theres 4 people on this bot?
pure lion
I don't have the energy for this.
crimson vapor
there are a few more than 4
earnest phoenix
And me
honest perch
Its not a bot
pure lion
It's a lib, not a bot.
opal plank
wtf
crimson vapor
https://github.com/ourcord/ourcord @opal plank
earnest phoenix
Yes
quartz kindle
opal plank
why alebot is only in 21 guilds then?
pure lion
?
earnest phoenix
It's a discord lib
crimson vapor
what the fuck is this https://github.com/ourcord/ourcord/blob/master/packager.js
quartz kindle
no idea
opal plank
i found a bug, i request colab status now
crimson vapor
are you that fucking lazy
honest perch
It was meant for npn
honest perch
are you that fucking lazy
Yes

ytho

this looks like twitch plays discord lib
honest perch
Ynot
pure lion
Can I outline the error please?
earnest phoenix
What's the error bruh
opal plank
this looks like twitch plays discord lib
twitch is the shittiest of apis to hook onto, i absolutely disencourage people from using it lmao
i doubt their code is trashier than twitch's api
crimson vapor
sinful belfry
<@301655085954367490> fix lib please.
how do i run it bruh
quartz kindle
have you seen twitch plays pokemon?
crimson vapor
how much do you guys have left on the lib?
honest perch
@crimson vapor github is broken
opal plank
thank god no
honest perch
Not the badge
pure lion
The import syntax error. When I'm testing it with yarn/npm, it throws the error. Anything else I need to outline?
crimson vapor
ik
quartz kindle
do it, its marvelous
opal plank
am i going to retain vision after seeing it?
quartz kindle
yes
opal plank
blindness is a concern of mine after looking at cursed code
pure lion
@earnest phoenix 
honest perch
Dice, maybe rewrite the whole thing to make it less of a cluster fuck
earnest phoenix
h
crimson vapor
slow
crimson vapor
smh
earnest phoenix
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW THEY USING TMI
The hell is TMI
crimson vapor
TIM?
pure lion
Dice, maybe rewrite the whole thing to make it less of a cluster fuck
Fix this first.
opal plank
do it, its marvelous
MY ASS IS MORE MARVELOUS THAN THIS CURSED CODE
honest perch
Idk, maybe rewrite it to make it less clusterfuck
earnest phoenix
Krista
pure lion
Idk, maybe rewrite it to make it less clusterfuck
Not the issue.
honest perch
Yes it is
limber sable
hey
opal plank
wtf am i looking at
honest perch
If you rewrote it it wouldn't be bad
pure lion
The .d.ts file?
earnest phoenix
declare module "Client" is the error? Wtf is happening
honest perch
Like everything
crimson vapor
https://github.com/ourcord/ourcord/blob/master/src/websocket.ts#L163 good formating guys
honest perch
Is an error
crimson vapor
the very best
pure lion
`declare module "Client"` is the error? Wtf is happening
That should be the thing that makes it work.
honest perch
Ask the mobile dev nerd why the formatting is like that
opal plank
their configs are also config.js which makes 100% sense
pure lion
Erwin, ts god, please tell me why I can't use es syntax in ts module files
pure lion
pure lion
But it was working before
opal plank
pure lion
You said yourself that it would work
pure lion
And it was in fact working
opal plank
too lazy
pure lion
No.
opal plank
yes.
misty sigil
lmao
pure lion
Eat your words >:(
opal plank
nom
earnest phoenix
Pog cat
pure lion
@misty sigil please fix before I hurt someone.
misty sigil
what needs fixksd
earnest phoenix
🗿 Wtf
honest perch
How about the mobile dev fixes it
earnest phoenix
What's the issue, i don't see it
honest perch
You know what, fuck ts x84 assembly it is
misty sigil
aye
pure lion
x86*.
honest perch
Same thing
earnest phoenix
Let's rewrite it in binary
misty sigil
0
pure lion
What's the issue, i don't see it
What happens when you try and run the latest v on npm?
Literally anyone
earnest phoenix
Like trying to construct a client?
pure lion
Yes

Lemme see

misty sigil
Can voltrex like just sell his house and get a pc
lmaoo
I’m sure voltrex could get a pc
they just want torture
and pain
opal plank
<@!188836645670223872> <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4g8zKRJLbQ>
the code works, but dude, i messed with their api, and this is so garbage https://github.com/hzoo/TwitchPlaysX/blob/master/server.js
twitch doesnt have a message event
since just like us, we have dm's and channels
crimson vapor
voltrex will get a pc soon™️
opal plank
we also have announcements
and a bunch of other shit
also adding events that already already handled by twitch's end
opal plank
disconnect and reconnect dont need to be bind cuz the library has those events already listed and arent private
quartz kindle
this is why i hate ts
honest perch
Same
opal plank
use import
pure lion
```js
SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module```
Yes, what the fuck.
tame kestrel
this is why i hate ts
this is why i love typescript
opal plank
cuz yall using the wrong import u ducks
earnest phoenix
I'm so confused, how's that error even happening in the first place
pure lion
...?
opal plank
import('./file');
go back to studying
earnest phoenix
Uhh
tame kestrel
go back to studying
thank u
crimson vapor
np
earnest phoenix
Umm
pure lion
```ts
import('./file');
```
what's wrong with import fml = require()
quartz kindle
@tame kestrel im gonna ping you for that
pure lion
Or Import h from ""
opal plank
nothing, thats es5 syntax
misty sigil
dice
opal plank
import > require
tame kestrel
earnest phoenix
import * from e as "h";
misty sigil
maybe we should write this
tame kestrel
ok bye
misty sigil
in js
opal plank
import * from e as "h";
wrong
pure lion
@earnest phoenix where's the error being thrown from
opal plank
import * as alias from 'file'
misty sigil
wait fuck minute
earnest phoenix
Show your compiler config again
opal plank
im just gonna set back relax and watch the world burn as yall figure out how to do this even though i already gave you the answer
pure lion
B
crimson vapor
its funny isnt it Erwin
opal plank
ikr
opal plank
tias
misty sigil
yes I think so
earnest phoenix
Since when did import() exist
opal plank
ts is more complex than yall think
misty sigil
it’s complex
crimson vapor
never tried ts
