what in the literal fuck are you on about lOL

super great way of having good testable code

#

you said that C# has DI as a forerunner

I'm saying that that's .NET core

F# has decent DI due to .NET

#

you and i both know that the dependency injection and host builder packages were built for c# and with c#

haughty vortex Jan 4, 2021, 11:23 PM

#

it was built for C#, and with C#, but it's not part of C#

#

unfortunately

#

anyways the point I'm trying to make is that it's not focused on one language only; if a language has OO capabilities, you can do DI easily

discord.js
My bot doesn't answer when I try to use this command.

liveGames, liveModels, liveAvatars, brGames, brModels and brAvatars are arrays.

For example, 12345 is in the liveAvatars array, so when I run "!check abc12345def", the bot should answer with "The sent creation is in my database.", but as I said, it's not answering. Am I doing something wrong?
if (message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}check`)) { let args1 = message.content.split(" "); let creationID = args1[1]; if (creationID.includes(liveGames[i] || liveModels[i] || liveAvatars[i] || brGames[i] || brModels[i] || brAvatars[i])) { message.channel.send(`The sent creation is in my database.`); } }

#

No errors in the console, by the way.

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 12:51 AM

#

what is i

#

that code is a mess

#

it'd be cleaner to have it in a command handler

#

now from what i'm understanding i is the creationID

coarse topaz Jan 5, 2021, 12:57 AM

#

that code is a mess
lol
now from what i'm understanding i is the creationID
And yes

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 12:58 AM

#

let args1 = message.content.split(" ") // This is a terrible approach for args. You should really trim off the command and prefix before splitting off args. But, it works
let creationID = args1[1] // Why not just use args1[1], also, why use numbers in a variable name. Do you already have args defined?
if (creationID.includes(liveGames[i] || liveModels[i] || liveAvatars[i] || brGames[i] || brModels[i] || brAvatars[i])) { // What is this even supposed to do? Check if the string contains an array element using an undefined variable?
  message.channel.send(`The sent creation is in my database.`); // This is the only line I don't have feedback on.
}```

#

the ideal way of checking an array for an element is <Array>.includes(thing) or for an object Object[key] and if that returns undefined you return an error message

coarse topaz Jan 5, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

Well, I just tried my best lmao, I'm not that good at programming, so I firstly need to see examples and adapt them to my needs. Thank you so much for your feedback! I've taken into account everything you mentioned and now it's working perfectly well. ^^ if (message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}check`)) { let args = message.content.split(" "); if (liveGames || liveModels || liveAvatars || brGames || brModels || brAvatars.includes(args[1])) { message.channel.send(`The sent creation is in my database.`); } } Maybe it's still a total mess, but that mess works, and that's what matters

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

Ah, that's looking a lot better now!

#

there's 1 mistake still

#

you should do .includes(args[1]) on each of the arrays

#

your indentation could be changed from js } } to ```js
}
}

lyric mountain Jan 5, 2021, 1:38 AM

#

Ctrl + alt + L will do that for u depending on the ide

#

Indentations depite being purely visual, will save u tens of hours finding erros in bigger codes

Firstly you might wanna use an actual database

Secondly just use r+/w+ open mode instead of opening the file twice

Possibly even add caching for prefixes

File Handling in Python

Introduction
It is an unwritten consensus that Python is one of the best starting
programming
languages [/why-beginners-should-learn-python/] to learn as a novice. It is
extremely versatile, easy to read/analyze, and quite pleasant to the eye. The
Python programming language is highly scalable and is widely considered as one
of the best toolbox...

scarlet stratus Jan 5, 2021, 8:19 AM

#

Thanks

slender thistle Jan 5, 2021, 8:19 AM

#

As for caching, the general idea is a dictionary that's attached to your bot object as a property and then used in commands to actually get the prefix

scarlet stratus Jan 5, 2021, 8:19 AM

#

appreciation

slender thistle Jan 5, 2021, 8:20 AM

#

So, instead of pulling prefix out of a file every time a command is run, you pull it from cache, which is faster and more reliable. Changing prefix still works via database, but this time you also edit it in cache

#

As for actual databases... eh, you'll get there if you put a bit of time into it

During your development you will likely run into DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions at some point. This error can be caused by one of the following:

Your bot is missing the needed permission to execute this action in it's calculated base or final permissions (requirement changes based on the type of action you are trying to execute).
You provided an invalid permission number while trying to create overwrites. (The calculator on the apps page returns decimal values while the developer documentation lists the flags in hex. Make sure you are not mixing the two and don't use the hex prefix 0x where not applicable)
It is trying to execute an action on a guild member with a role higher than or equal to your bot's highest role.
It is trying to modify or assign a role that is higher than or equal to its highest role.
It is trying to add a managed role to a member.
It is trying to remove a managed role from a member.
It is trying to execute a forbidden action on the server owner.
It is trying to execute an action based on another unfulfilled factor (for example reserved for partnered guilds).
It is trying to execute an action on a voice channel without the VIEW_CHANNEL permission.
WARNING

The ADMINISTRATOR permission being granted does not skip any hierarchical check!```

Hey, I'm having tons of lag when my bot is in many servers. I've tested my bot in both a small bot in one server, and another in approx. 850 guilds. When in the smaller one, it is fast, and the lag is close to zero. However, in the large bot, the bot responds sluggishly, almost a delay of 2 seconds+. The ws ping exceeds over 2000ms (2 seconds) to 200ms. Any tips on that?

ps (if related): my bot is split into different files, and makes a request to a db on every message sent.

slice is faster than substring

but substr is faster than slice

actually?

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 11:49 AM

however substr is mostly deprecated

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 11:50 AM

ye

#

str += str is also faster than str = str + str

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 11:51 AM

#

is that because you are reassigning it?

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 11:51 AM

#

most likely because of some internal micro optimization in v8

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 11:51 AM

#

oh ok

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 11:51 AM

#

also, then you add stuff to strings, they are not actually concatenated in v8

#

v8 creates a sort of binary tree to keep pieces of floating strings

#

so concatenating strings in js is super fast

#

but when you try to read this string, that binary tree is lazily concatenated

#

so the first read is much slower

@crimson vapor it really depends on the context

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:30 PM

#

how so?

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:30 PM

#

lmao

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 3:31 PM

#

for example in the above code, sure switch can be used, however you can also use a bit mask and if else that, which is arguably the most performant way

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:31 PM

#

it really depends on what kind of data you need to if about

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 3:31 PM

#

this

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:31 PM

#

an else if is only the amount of if statements as the first if that was true right

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:32 PM

#

if you're doing something like "if the sun is yellow, else if the moon is blue, else if the ocean has water", then use if else

#

if you're doing something like "if the sun is yellow, else if the sun is red, else if the sun is blue", use switch

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:32 PM

#

ok that makes sense

#

another question

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:33 PM

#

then you can further expand it by what each of those options is supposed to do

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:33 PM

#

how slow is if

#

like realisticaally?

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 3:33 PM

#

it isn't

#

whats inside of it is slow

#

the comparisons you're doing affect performance

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:33 PM

#

a comparison is one of the fastest possible operations in computing

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 3:33 PM

#

that's why i mentioned bit masks

#

they're a super fast way to check for a specific flag on a bunch of properties

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:34 PM

#

what you should think about is not "how to compare faster" but "how to reduce the number of comparisons needed"

#

for example if you have 100 if elses in a row, and you want to match the last one, you will do 100 comparisons for nothing

#

so you should split your code in a way, that you reduce the number of comparisons needed, by grouping options or something else

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:36 PM

#

but realistically since if statements are generally very fast, as long as you are using if else and switch case when applicable, code would be fine

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:36 PM

#

yes

#

however then you must also factor in code maintainability

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:36 PM

#

is that why functions are generally chained?

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:37 PM

#

stuff like assembly is the fastest possible thing you can get, but nobody realistically uses it because its overly complex and complicated

#

in js, 500 if elses will probably be faster than array.find(), but you need 500 lines of crap when you could have 1 that does the same thing

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 3:37 PM

#

a compiler will always optimize more than a human in asm

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:38 PM

#

oh I see

#

so people really don't like lots of if statements because its ugly and hard to maintain

#

assuming it was used correctly

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:39 PM

#

the rule i follow is prefer code readability and simplicity, except in places that are expected to be used multiple times, for example in loops

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:39 PM

#

that makes sense

#

object[key] is just about instant right?

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:40 PM

#

mostly yes

#

it depends on how v8 is running it behind the scenes

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:40 PM

#

oh that makes sense

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:40 PM

#

since a js object can be backed by different c/c++ structures depending on size, key types, data types, etc

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:40 PM

#

I also assume bigger object require memory allocation which takes more time

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:41 PM

#

everything requires memory allocation

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:41 PM

#

yeah but an object with 1 entry takes more than an object with 2^24 entries

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:42 PM

#

well by everything I mean data

true ravine Jan 5, 2021, 3:42 PM

#

Not entirely applicable here, but when I try to cd on my vps it says that the private ip of the vps is unavailable - is that firewall or something else?

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:43 PM

#

crimson vapor yeah but an object with 1 entry takes more than an object with 2^24 entries

thonkku I'm not sure what you mean, an object with one entry wouldn't use more memory than 2^24 entries

#

I guess it depends on the types of the entries - if they are other big objects then sure...

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:44 PM

#

all data structures have a certain overhead, for example if your key size is 10, your data size is 100, an object containing this key and data will likely use more than 110

#

this overhead includes indexing, hashing and other stuff to keep information about the object

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:45 PM

#

Tim is it more memory efficient to export classes or just raw objects for commands and stuff?

#

I assume raw objects

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:45 PM

#

you won't see a difference

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:45 PM

#

there is likely no difference

#

that kind of stuff is only relevant of you have a million commands

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:45 PM

#

oh

#

so it would just be personal preference at that point

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:46 PM

#

yea

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:46 PM

#

however, classes for commands only make sense if you have a base class that all commands extend

#

otherwise singleton classes for commands dont make much sense

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:47 PM

#

classes for commands is super unnecessary

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:47 PM

#

I mean an extention of the main base command

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

what would you extend?

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

the base command

#

but what would the base command be

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

the base command class could have methods to access a database for example

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

oh that makes sense

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:51 PM

#

to me it sounds pointless & overcomplicated

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 3:51 PM

#

db is my least favourite but favourite thing

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

I don't mind db

#

but I really need to create good functions for the DB to have better caching

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

in db, working in prod is something that you don’t do

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:53 PM

#

not an issue if you store nothing

misty sigil Jan 5, 2021, 3:53 PM

#

aye, fair enough

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 3:53 PM

#

it would be smarter to take a module based approach

a singleton class that contains all your command functions, that allows you to split into different categories etc

#

this is by far the best approach

#

dpy does it with cogs

#

dnet & dsharp with modules

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

when you create instances of different classes, does each class require the same amount of memory for functions, or are all of the classes using the same functions in memory?

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

I'm pretty sure they use the same function with a different this

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

so properties declared as this. are unique while functions are not?

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:56 PM

#

mmm

#

Does the widget not work on google sites?

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 3:58 PM

#

what is it showing?

umbral zealot Jan 5, 2021, 3:59 PM

#

You'll have to be a lot more precise. What widget? What site? What are you doing exactly?

#

Hint: no one can see your screen so we have no idea what you're talking about.

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 3:59 PM

#

crimson vapor so properties declared as this. are unique while functions are not?

this should answer your question

📎 Capture.PNG

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 4:00 PM

#

so this is showing that a.get and b.get are the same in the memory?

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 4:00 PM

#

yes

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 4:00 PM

#

ok

#

pog

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:00 PM

#

they're the same method in the same instance

#

so ye

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 4:00 PM

#

not the same instance

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:00 PM

#

oh wait

#

panik

#

now im the one whos confused

#

anyways

#

✨ the magic of javascript ✨

#

imma head out now

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 4:02 PM

#

not really... making a different function for each instance would be super wasteful

umbral zealot Jan 5, 2021, 4:02 PM

#

The code is in the class, the instance is only basically the properties that you have.

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 4:02 PM

#

is that why Object.keys() on a class only shows the this. properties?

umbral zealot Jan 5, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

yes.

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

that makes sense

earnest phoenix Jan 5, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

everything is in the same memory, not everything has the same pointer

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

i guess thats why its necessary to use this on classes

umbral zealot Jan 5, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

Of course if you modify one of those methods with your own then it'll remove the point and it'll no longer be equal.

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

so methods are the same for every instance, but they are executed with different
this context?

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

think of this as an function argument passed by the V8 engine that points to the instance of the class

#

yeah

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

hm aight

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

V8 engine is written in what language?

cinder patio Jan 5, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

c++

crimson vapor Jan 5, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

we should all just take c++

mellow kelp Jan 5, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

the this keyword is easier to understand than i expected

quartz kindle Jan 5, 2021, 4:10 PM

#

js classes are built on top of prototypes

#

so basically when you do ```js
class A {
something() {}
}

#

you're doing ```js
A.prototype.something = function() {}

#

the prototype is like a blueprint
