does someone here know how to get the webhook url in dblpy? since it has an already built-in webhook system to check for votes
i just can't find it
earnest phoenix
your server ip and port
nocturne narwhal
oh? ok then
earnest phoenix
a webhook is nothing more than just a reverse API; instead of you making a request to a website, the website makes a request to you
in order to accept said requests, you need a webserver open on a specific port
the lib you're using probably creates a webserver for you and is listening on that port
nocturne narwhal
Yeah Thank You
earnest phoenix
Any ways to show your bot's statistics like server & members count on a website??
either server-side render your website
or
have an api exposed on your backend that the frontend can call

does someone know if there is a way to see if a user is verified?
in the apidocs there is a verified property in user model
https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/user#user-object
but in the libraries for c# and js this property only exists on the bots user model

i think thats oauth2

do you mean these authorization windows of discord or is there a way to make oauth2 requests with a bot?

fair axle
Which database management system is best for discord bots and why?
past needle
the shardRecconect event keep getting emitted
fair axle
I use sqlite
fair axle
is there any request traffic problem with sqlite
umbral zealot
quick.db is slow and bad.
past needle
mysql is the best at general for me
umbral zealot
sqlite is perfectly fine, mysql is the worst
fair axle
I'm not beginner at this. I used too many database management system but I don't know which one is the best
I used mysql, sqlite and mongodb before
wary mason
sqlite is perfectly fine, mysql is **the worst**
+1
umbral zealot
What do you mean by "Database management" then
crimson vapor
is enmap persistent?
umbral zealot
is enmap persistent?
yes
crimson vapor
so its essentially a light db
umbral zealot
Enmap a wrapper around sqlite with caching. meant for absolute beginners.
crimson vapor
oh
fair axle
What if I send 50+ request in a second with sqlite
umbral zealot
sqlite is good for "lots of reads, a lot less writes"
fair axle
Do you know what is the limit for writing
earnest phoenix
HOi
umbral zealot
it's not a hard limit, it depends on a lot of factors
earnest phoenix
so
umbral zealot
if you're worried about it, maybe use a real database server like postgresql
fair axle
Is there any documentation about that
earnest phoenix
Do i have to put https://glitch.com/edit/#!/hello-express for te express ting
umbral zealot
I Feel we're going in the wrong direction. What exactly is your question?
earnest phoenix
thing
umbral zealot
Do i have to put https://glitch.com/edit/#!/hello-express for te express ting
What "the express thing" are you talking about
earnest phoenix
the web hook
umbral zealot
the web hook
No, because that's your editor's URL, not your publicly accessible URL.
crimson vapor
it's not a hard limit, it depends on a lot of factors
this
umbral zealot
How many request can I send to sqlite (update request)
have you tried asking google that question?
fair axle
Yes but I couldn't find anything about comparison with other systems
umbral zealot
hollow sedge
How many request can I send to sqlite (update request)
As many as you want? Local dbs arent limited
hollow sedge
Yeah but you won't hit that limit
umbral zealot
And it depends on the exact implementation
hollow sedge
It's not something to worry about
umbral zealot
and it depends on the speed of the disk
and it depends on the operating system
and it depends on the size of what you're writing
fair axle
Okey relax
earnest phoenix
Anyone who knows py plz dm me i need help
umbral zealot
See the thing is there is no one universal solid answer to the question, so, why are you asking about sqlite write limits?
fair axle
I will post a screenshot when discord servers came back
It will be more explanatory
I got an error about limits
umbral zealot
Ok so clearly you have reached them and you have an issue
umbral zealot
and sqlite is no longer appropriate for you
You should consider switching to postgresql.
crimson vapor
You should consider switching to postgresql.
you like postgresql?
umbral zealot
It's a great database, yes.
fair axle
When the bot joined the server, I tried to create a special line for each users
earnest phoenix
so what do i have to put
umbral zealot
<@!139412744439988224> answer when
click this. that's going ot be the "public" URL for it, from there you can guess what endpoint you'll need to reach.
fair axle
That was an error on command line about limits
earnest phoenix
live code or code
umbral zealot
"in a new window" lol
earnest phoenix
@umbral zealot live code or code
umbral zealot
it'll be something like http://myservername.glitch.me/

you could use the bot as a gate, store votes or something in database

n.tag learn js
fuck #commands
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!

umbral zealot
If so, you can't install that yourself.

I use repl.it for the host. i have everything what i need. I can do anything
You cant use FFMPEG on repl my boi

lost isle
hi, i added a index.js file and a test.js
in the test.js i have :
if (!message.content.startsWith(config.prefix) || message.author.bot) return;
if (message.content.startsWith(config.prefix + "ping")) {
message.channel.send("pong!");
} else
if (message.content.startsWith(config.prefix + "foo")) {
message.channel.send("bar!");
}
});```
and the bot goes online but when i do the command nothing shows upwhat should i do
earnest phoenix
You cant use FFMPEG on repl my boi
what can i use then?
Get a new host
I don't use FFmpeg I use web-audio-api npm package so i dont have to deal with that shit

it works like that
but i want it to be cleaner
liike all commands
in a command file

Then make a command handler

how do i do that

U code it
earnest phoenix
learn it then
opal plank
learn
earnest phoenix
discordjs.guide has a nice guide on it
crimson vapor
am I allowed to post sample command loader?
opal plank
@lost isle 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!

opal plank
doing js without learning it first is shooting your own foot, you're just inducing yourself to keep copying code until you eventually try to do something that someone hasnt done before and theres no easy snippet for you to copy. It just produces a shit ton of bad habits and dependency on either stackoverflow or some glorious channel like this

So fine, let me bring the metaphor I always use: It's like trying to learn cooking by making Beef Wellington as your first recipe.
"How do I use promises" = "What does 'chop finely' mean?"
"I use notepad to edit" = "A chef's knife? You mean, like, butter knives?"
"I'm getting a syntax error on this code" = "What's a food processor? what does it process? Where do I get one?"
"Sorry I'm a noob" = "I literally just moved into my first apartment from mom's house, I don't know how to read a recipe"
"I'm following this tutorial and it doesn't work" = "I'm following this recipe and I don't understand most of the words"
Trying to make beef wellington as your first recipe and the instructions be like:
To prepare the beef: Tie the tenderloin in 4 places so it holds its cylindrical shape while cooking. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper and sear all over, including the ends, in a hot, heavy-based skillet lightly coated with olive oil - about 2 to 3 minutes. Meanwhile set out your prosciutto on a sheet of plastic wrap (plastic needs to be about a foot and a half in length so you can wrap and tie the roast up in it) on top of your cutting board. Shingle the prosciutto so it forms a rectangle that is big enough to encompass the entire filet of beef. Using a rubber spatula cover evenly with a thin layer of duxelles. Season the surface of the duxelles with salt and pepper and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves. When the beef is seared, remove from heat, cut off twine and smear lightly all over with Dijon mustard. Allow to cool slightly, then roll up in the duxelles covered prosciutto using the plastic wrap to tie it up nice and tight. Tuck in the ends of the prosciutto as you roll to completely encompass the beef. Roll it up tightly in plastic wrap and twist the ends to seal it completely and hold it in a nice log shape. Set in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to ensure it maintains its shape.
And not knowing what the words "drizzle", "sear", "shingle", "duxelle", "twine" mean.
