And twemoji? Copycats

[solemn elk]

so its 18-20

[proven lantern]

i have an id that is 17

[sudden geyser]

What would happen when the time comes

it would be stuck at the max value

[solemn latch]

xD

https://paste.ofcode.org/F2JU7SquuQbN5zYaxLQtgi someone help for god sake lmao

[earnest phoenix]

don't store data in json

🤷‍♂️

[buoyant aspen]

Anyone know of any good JS packages/tips for "Decancering" strings? (I.E. zalgo/crazy unicode)

[quartz kindle]

decancering lmao

[earnest phoenix]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/unidecode-plus

[quartz kindle]

thats a nice word

[solemn elk]

idk how to use a database yet

[earnest phoenix]

there's a first time for everything

[solemn elk]

im smol in the field of programming

[quartz kindle]

grow up

[solemn elk]

imma learn databases soon for sure

[quartz kindle]

we all did

[solemn elk]

The More You Learn

[quartz kindle]

yup

:3

[earnest phoenix]

then don't ask for support for a method of storing data that's known to be unreliable, not suggested and easily breaks 🤷‍♂️

[proven lantern]

it's an id from a random bot user

[solemn elk]

sad

[rose warren]

Using a DB isn't that hard. Look into it :)

[proven lantern]

mongodb stores data in bson which is just json after being converted from binary

[earnest phoenix]

but it's much more than just storing data in json/bson

[proven lantern]

yeah, indexes can be added to improve performance

but they can be added after

[solemn latch]

and probably a ton of things to protect the database from corruption.

[proven lantern]

replica sets and sharding

arbiter nodes

[quartz kindle]

The most important thing that a db offers is data safety

Any data written to a db will never be lost under normal cirumstances

[opal plank]

except json dbs

looking at you, cuck @crimson vapor

[quartz kindle]

Lol

[mellow kelp]

the superior jason.db database

[quartz kindle]

Jason Voorhees

[pale vessel]

PoggersDB

[crimson vapor]

chill its coded well

[opal plank]

tis a json db

[crimson vapor]

no corruptions

™️

[mellow kelp]

DataCorruption™️

[crimson vapor]

none

because good

[proven lantern]

i use elasticsearch and firestore for my bot

[earnest phoenix]

Bro, GamingDB

[opal plank]

i'd very much like to put that on test

[mellow kelp]

PoggersDB

[crimson vapor]

do it

I tried hard

[opal plank]

let see if i break your db by pulling it on my prod server

[crimson vapor]

idc what you do

just make sure its reproducable

[opal plank]

link the cursed thing pls

[proven lantern]

bork prod server is bork

[crimson vapor]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/jason.db I think

fuck

[earnest phoenix]

package

[opal plank]

imagine not knowing your own url

[pale vessel]

https://npm.im/jason.db

[crimson vapor]

idk npm

[earnest phoenix]

despite that big warning you put there

people are still going to use it

[opal plank]

well the fact that the snippet doesnt work on js is quite a good thing

[quartz kindle]

Wut

[opal plank]

10/10 lib

[mellow kelp]

precious

[quartz kindle]

Lol

[opal plank]

well it does hold to its "it was made as a joke"

@crimson vapor can you provide an actual working snippet?

[mellow kelp]

check out https://www.npmjs.com/package/true

[solemn latch]

if anything its more accurate that it instantly doesnt work.

[crimson vapor]

fuckin

sec

[quartz kindle]

Lmao another one... There are many like that

[earnest phoenix]

Bro

[mellow kelp]

npm joke packages are getting out of hand

[crimson vapor]

const { DB } = require('jason.db');
const database = new DB('data.jason', { writeFile: true });
const data = database.collection('data');
data.set('x', 'y');
data.get('x');```

[opal plank]

^^

[crimson vapor]

should work

[earnest phoenix]

https://npmjs.com/package/to-lower

9 million downloads

[crimson vapor]

fuck

[opal plank]

i didnt even have to break it

lmao

[crimson vapor]

make the file or pass option 'writeFile': true

[opal plank]

cmon million

[crimson vapor]

smh

I fixed it

[mellow kelp]

[quartz kindle]

isThirteen

[opal plank]

isThousand

isHundread

isTenThousand

[crimson vapor]

Erwin did it work?

[opal plank]

npm should get rid of those troll packages tbh

yes

[crimson vapor]

good

[quartz kindle]

Theres an actual package isThirteen

[mellow kelp]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/the-answer

[opal plank]

its basically a map, but with a db

[earnest phoenix]

functional programming™️

[quartz kindle]

42

[crimson vapor]

yes

[mellow kelp]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

https://youtu.be/PI5wz2pwXIg

[crimson vapor]

Erwin you should try out poggersDB

[mellow kelp]

a function that returns 42

^^

[crimson vapor]

const { PoggersDB } = require('jason.db');
const database = new PoggersDB('data.poggers', { writeFile: true });
const data = database.collection('data');
data.set('x', 'y');
data.get('x');```

way better than vanilla db

[mellow kelp]

YES

[earnest phoenix]

He finally did it

PoggersDB

[mellow kelp]

my glorious creation

[crimson vapor]

its existed for a while

idk how but it works

[mellow kelp]

it's so secure that sometimes the decryptor won't even work

[crimson vapor]

nah it always works

hello ender

[jovial nexus]

how can i look fon unavaliable guilds on a shard?

[earnest phoenix]

Just filter guilds and check if their <Guild>.available property is false?

[opal plank]

bruh what

what you mean properly coded my dude

[crimson vapor]

huh

[opal plank]

bruh, gimme a sec

[jovial nexus]

@earnest phoenix is this ok for checking if a guild is available?? js client.guilds.cache.forEach(g => { if(!g.available) console.log(g.name) })

[opal plank]

i cannot believe this

[jovial nexus]

whats poggersdb

[earnest phoenix]

It should work

[crimson vapor]

a joke I made

well

@mellow kelp

he did

[jovial nexus]

what a guy

[mellow kelp]

the best database ever

[jovial nexus]

i remember making a bot that banned everyone that was playing fortnite

[earnest phoenix]

es2021 needs to abolish the forEach function

[mellow kelp]

[crimson vapor]

all my code would error

[crimson vapor]

that sucks

[opal plank]

[crimson vapor]

guess I didn't think of that

[opal plank]

thats not the only issue

[crimson vapor]

oh

there are more?

[mellow kelp]

LMAOO

[opal plank]

properly coded is an overstatement

[crimson vapor]

nah thats user error

[opal plank]

not when you pass it the promise of a get

[crimson vapor]

hmm

maybe not then

idk it works for me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[opal plank]

then you should keep it to yourself, not for public

[crimson vapor]

well

yea

I should

[opal plank]

its just polluting npm community

took it 5 lines to break it

and yes, that traffic is achieveable

[crimson vapor]

hmm

[crimson vapor]

how come it errors then and not before LOL

[opal plank]

presences im getting 22k per minute

[opal plank]

good question, you the one who coded it

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[crimson vapor]

fs.renameSync is erroring iirc

[pale vessel]

blocking shit

[opal plank]

this shows you dont have a queue system

you just dumping the operations as they come

[crimson vapor]

you're right

I didn't think to make a queue system

[opal plank]

well, thats it for that then

didnt take more than 5 minutes to break it

[crimson vapor]

thanks for breaking it tho ngl

now I know what to fix

kinda

[quartz kindle]

good luck trashing your hdd tho lmao

[crimson vapor]

lol

I always tested on an SSD

before you yell

I didn't have an hdd

[opal plank]

im only being this harsh cuz its a troll package, which im highly against it. Would it have been a proper package, i would've been nicer, but , as mentioned, the fact that this was made under the premise of "troll pakcage" alreayd makes me dislike it, as its just contributing to npm pollution

[crimson vapor]

I would call it an actual package but that leads me to bigger questions like why did I make a shitty db and such

[pale vessel]

I wouldn't call it a troll package

It actually has a "purpose"

[crimson vapor]

maybe its somewhere in between

[pale vessel]

Albeit broken kekw

[crimson vapor]

TODO: make queue system

[pale vessel]

TODO: delete repo

[crimson vapor]

hmm

[pale vessel]

yea idk about that one

[opal plank]

the thing that i dont get is the fact that this doesnt provide much, if any gains over other stuff. Redis would be faster, more optimized, and still be able to keep it after the process shuts down. Then move to any other db, like postgres, and you get the same, though for comparison, i'd like to point out redis, that has the same key/pair system you made, but its far better. What DOES your package provide that others dont?

[crimson vapor]

it doesn't have anything better than most

even at a working state

it fucks rss because of the constant reading and writing JSON

[pale vessel]

you just proved his point

[crimson vapor]

I do get to say I learned more because of it

[opal plank]

then why post it?

[crimson vapor]

honestly as a joke

[opal plank]

im not trying to disencourage you from coding, im disencouraging you from posting random libs to an npm workspace

[crimson vapor]

ik and I understand that tbh

[opal plank]

to put it bluntly, its not contributing to the community in any way

[crimson vapor]

I know that, I even would suggest not using it as its really inefficient

[opal plank]

the same reason as to why is-undefined is a thing, we know its a troll, but theres ACTUAL people out there who use stuff like that as dependancy, its a step towards the wrong direction to be posting those without the intent to actually be usefull, it just dumps gasoline in the community

[crimson vapor]

fair point tbh

I tried to say in my readme not to use it

but many people won't read the readme

[opal plank]

if you intend to compete and make your db, go ahead, dont be afraid, but pls dont post it as a troll, put actual commitment into making it useful for someone if you're going to be posting it

[crimson vapor]

do people actually use is-undefined?

[opal plank]

does this answer your question?

[earnest phoenix]

They even request "funding"

Bruh

[crimson vapor]

kinda but not really

is it on gh?

if so send the link

[opal plank]

or this

[crimson vapor]

is-odd to be kinda pog tho /s

[opal plank]

pog?

its trash dude

its one line of code

[crimson vapor]

ik thats why /s

[earnest phoenix]

/s

[opal plank]

THIS

https://github.com/i-voted-for-trump/is-odd/blob/master/index.js#L23

this single line is what makes this whole thing

but people actually install this whole thing for that one line

[earnest phoenix]

That github username already explains the kekw moment of the package

[crimson vapor]

OH SHIT

https://million.is-a.computer/files/JtzxLicewaRw3WMB.png

FUCK noob js devs

learn math

[earnest phoenix]

Wtf

[crimson vapor]

maybe 8k

[opal plank]

one would say the same about your troll lib

[earnest phoenix]

834k

[crimson vapor]

maybe that would be joke

[opal plank]

so, careful with it

[crimson vapor]

idk fuck me if people use my lib

[lament rock]

we live in a society

[opal plank]

theres ACTUAL people out there who dont know better and use it

so, refrain from posting troll poackages if possible

[crimson vapor]

https://million.is-a.computer/files/pOPmsz0d7ErnwoRN.png how do people even find it?

first 2 are actual results

define Discord

const Discord = require('discord.js')

I think

[mint wing]

:(

[crimson vapor]

fixed

[mint wing]

:)

JS is a good starter language so there's a lot of dumbasses rolling around but we're not all bad 😔

[pale vessel]

you kinda took his statement out of context

[mint wing]

i know

[wicked sapphire]

I started sharding my bot early, is there any issue with that? It's at 60+ servers.

1 shard

[opal plank]

why tho

[mint wing]

if it's just 1 shard that's basically the same as not sharding so i wouldn't think so

[earnest phoenix]

you'll just have less of a headache later, you don't necessarily get any cons

[mint wing]

futureproofing i guess

[opal plank]

the recommendation is to not even bother until 1.5k servers

iirc

[wicked sapphire]

experimental, and I think it would be good to know about it earlier than later.

[opal plank]

fair

i'll need to do sharding later, not sure if i'll use d.js's sharder or if i'll make my own

d.js has been failing misreably with me recently

[mint wing]

i learned to shard my bot at 25

[mint wing]

how so

[wicked sapphire]

Wait, you can make your own sharder?

[opal plank]

well, for starters, using about 3gb of ram

[pale vessel]

use kurasuta, it's pog

[opal plank]

i did my own sharder for twitch, yeah

[mint wing]

you can make your own anything ✨

[pale vessel]

yukine made it

[opal plank]

thank d.js for this garbage

now im running loops to kill the cache

cuz some of them d.js for some godly retarded reason doesnt expose

[mint wing]

jeez how many servers is that in?

[opal plank]

its growing about 35-40 servers a day

i'll need to do sharding VERY soon

[mint wing]

not too bad i suppose
nice interface, i still want/need to make an interface someday but uni

[opal plank]

100 servers every 3 days basically

[mint wing]

christ

[opal plank]

its been quite annoying ngl

[solemn latch]

pog

[mint wing]

where do all those people find your bot lmao

[opal plank]

recommendations

and google ads

[mint wing]

google ads

[solemn latch]

google ads

[pale vessel]

epicx

[mint wing]

p2w bot development

[opal plank]

i never sunk a single penny into this bot

i'll have you know that

thank you

[mint wing]

dam u stole google ads? wtf

[solemn latch]

patreon

[opal plank]

not like i had free credit to use on google ads

[mint wing]

but then didnt they sink patreon money into it

like

[opal plank]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mint wing]

that still counts

[opal plank]

nope, the bot is completely free

nor do i have donations setup

[mint wing]

wowie

[opal plank]

nor did i spent a single penny

even the vps its hosted on

[mint wing]

what is this first world setup

[opal plank]

its called using the tools you have on hand

[mint wing]

[developers hate him] use this one single trick for free vps and google ads

what're those tools huh

spill the beans

[opal plank]

secret

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mint wing]

yeah that sounds legal 🧐

[opal plank]

though i do have some plans to increase interactivity when the bot calms down

it IS legal

[mint wing]

thats what id say if it was an illegal secret

[craggy pine]

its just a laptop running 24/7 somewhere thats the vps

[opal plank]

people here saw me literally abuse twitch api, think i'd be hiding it?

[earnest phoenix]

does anyone see a error with that?

['command_handler', 'event_handler'].forEach(handler =>{
require(./handlers/${handler})(client, Discord);
})

it says error - require is not a function or som

require(...) is not a function

awesome

[pale vessel]

Pog

[mint wing]

[earnest phoenix]

that helps 0

[mint wing]

https://www.google.com/search?q=require+is+not+a+function+nodejs

there you go, help yourself

[earnest phoenix]

that doesnt help

[mint wing]

yes it does, its google

[solemn latch]

i mean the first result is this

https://stackoverflow.com/a/33008076

which is probably your solution

[mint wing]

yeah the first result seems quite helpful

[earnest phoenix]

wtf is wrong with that

i dont need function

[mint wing]

[lament meteor]

The othet file?

[earnest phoenix]

try not using an arrow function

[solemn latch]

^

[lament meteor]

Doubt its arrow functions

[earnest phoenix]

me too

but 🤷‍♂️

node is witchery

[mint wing]

epic witchery

[earnest phoenix]

i fixed issue

but wtf is this issue

[solemn latch]

pog

[earnest phoenix]

dirs is not defined

im just gonna kms

[mint wing]

did you fix the previous issue or did you create a biger issue that is prioritized over the previous one

[earnest phoenix]

fixed the last one

i forgot to save all

i was clicking save

not save all

[lament meteor]

Kek

[earnest phoenix]

anyway

why is dirs not defined

[solemn latch]

did you define dirs

[earnest phoenix]

like const dirs

?

@opal plank Yo erwin, you there

to put me in context...

im a highschool student

attempting to learn code

and this is how i chose to learn it

[opal plank]

hai

[earnest phoenix]

so if i ask som stupid

thats why

[pale vessel]

don't think age matters

[solemn latch]

we have middle school devs here quite frequently, we see silly questions all the time, dw.

[earnest phoenix]

Would you mind to rate this
https://npmjs.com/package/string-toolkit

[solemn latch]

yeah, const dirs, or any other definition methods.

[opal plank]

the fuck is this

another troll poackage?

[pale vessel]

no

[earnest phoenix]

what should dirs be defined as

bc i dont think i did

[solemn latch]

i dont know, its your code.

[earnest phoenix]

Nope

im just making a command and event handler

in node.js

[solemn latch]

so, somewhere in your code you have a variable being used called dirs right?

[lament meteor]

Show some code smh

[earnest phoenix]

yes

my main js looks like that

[lament meteor]

Reset ur token

[stark abyss]

I uninstalled it and deleted the whole puppeteer file but same issue

[earnest phoenix]

ahh shit

[lament meteor]

Before someone uses it

[opal plank]

gotta run some errands soon, cant break it test it

[earnest phoenix]

done

Hmm

[lament meteor]

Where does the dir error come from

[earnest phoenix]

K take your time if you will

[lament meteor]

Probs one of the other files

[earnest phoenix]

[stark abyss]

ping me if you know something about that

[lament meteor]

@earnest phoenix why u make a meme package

Its in event handler

What's in there

[earnest phoenix]

It's not?

[lament meteor]

It kinda is tbh

[earnest phoenix]

H o w

[lament meteor]

U added that random faketoken poop

[earnest phoenix]

tip, enable auto save on vsc

Well yea, idk some users of the package requested that

So i just said fuck it let's add

[lament meteor]

U should first tead the contents of the events folder

But i dont think u need that

[earnest phoenix]

wdym

[lament meteor]

While commands have categories

U dont need categories for events

Unless u rlly want to

[earnest phoenix]

it just makes it neater

idk

[lament meteor]

How thou

Well first i guess u gotta use fs to read the events folder

Then u can get dir

[earnest phoenix]

ok i fixed that

now last issue

wtf is this

code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
requireStack: [
'C:\Users\Benso\OneDrive\Desktop\JustMe\handlers\event_handler.js',
'C:\Users\Benso\OneDrive\Desktop\JustMe\Main.js'
]
}

fs and discord.js are both installed

[lament meteor]

You probs are requesting the wrong file somehow

[earnest phoenix]

fml

[stark abyss]

or u mess up the path

you know when you declare a file

const { prefix, color} = require('./config.json');

[lament meteor]

What module is it not finding

[earnest phoenix]

doesnt say

[stark abyss]

do you know what file that is in

[earnest phoenix]

yea

[stark abyss]

scroll up

[earnest phoenix]

C:\Users\Benso\OneDrive\Desktop\JustMe\handlers\event_handler.js',
'C:\Users\Benso\OneDrive\Desktop\JustMe\Main.js'

[stark abyss]

[earnest phoenix]

the main js and event handler

[lament meteor]

Hmm

Oh i think it cant find the event file

In the dir

[stark abyss]

const { prefix, color} = require('./config.json'); --> correct
const { prefix, color} = require('./../../../../../.../config.json'); --> this path is probably incorrect

am I being helpful?

[earnest phoenix]

idk

[lament meteor]

Don't think that is rly related rn

@earnest phoenix how does the events folder look like

[stark abyss]

I just got the feeling that he is trying to declare a file and have wrong path my bad

[lament meteor]

Hmm

Oh

[stark abyss]

wait a min where is main.js

[lament meteor]

Im not too sure what u changed in the dir code but

It seems to be a typo

Where the parameter is accepting dir

And u are writing dirs

[earnest phoenix]

its supposed to be dirs

not dir

[dusky sundial]

Are the file separators correct?

[earnest phoenix]

huh

[dusky sundial]

Like / instead of \ in the path. What OS are you on?

[earnest phoenix]

windows 10

home

[dusky sundial]

Hm, should be / then

[earnest phoenix]

yea thats how it is

[dusky sundial]

Try swapping to backslash and see if it makes a difference

[lament meteor]

Wont

Will give more errors

I forgot how .. stuff works

[pale vessel]

if you want to use backslash you have to escape it \\

[dusky sundial]

It should be fine though

[earnest phoenix]

fml

:/

[pale vessel]

Same

[earnest phoenix]

so pretty much

no one knows how to fix it

[dusky sundial]

I'd love to try to help more but I'm awful at js

almost never done anything with it

[craggy pine]

C:\Users\Benso\OneDrive\Desktop\JustMe\handlers\event_handler.js', if this is where the file is I'm pretty certain you'll need to go up directories first. ../ is how you move up 1 directory

[earnest phoenix]

wdym

add another . ?

[pale vessel]

./ references the current directory while ../ would mean the parent directory (or one directory above)

[earnest phoenix]

so what do u want me to do

im confused asf

@pale vessel e @lament meteor

this might have helped

Error: Cannot find module '../events/${dirs}/${file}'

[pale vessel]

e

idk your structure

[earnest phoenix]

?????

😦

You're using '

`

is what im using

[solemn latch]

good eyes voltrex

[earnest phoenix]

huh

[pale vessel]

you only used it on your event_files

[earnest phoenix]

so...

how do i fix it

By using template strings

`

WHERE

I DID ALR

const event_files = fs.readdirSync(./events/${dirs}).filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));

Line 8

dude

@earnest phoenix

?

u r a fucking legend

how did u get to be a verified bot dev

wtf

By reaching my bot to 75+ guilds and applying for verification

But that's deprecated

did u pay anything for it?

Nope

u dope

You too bro

totally

when i cant even get a symbol right

Well simple mistakes, everyone makes mistakes

not u apparently

also question, the more people that use your bot and run cmds on diff servers, does that need more or less like cpu or anything

I also do make mistakes, since I'm developing everything on mobile

Mostly spelling errors tho

damn

[earnest phoenix]

Well more operations === more CPU usage

ohhh so i will need a vps if i want to be public and stuff?

normally i just host for free on repl and ping the server to keep the repl alive

[dusky sundial]

You don't need a VPS to host the bot. But it's definitely recommended

[earnest phoenix]

I mean, you would require a VPS if you want your bot to be online all the time and not end up having low amount of ram or something or get memory leaks or stuff like that

shit

wheres the cheapest and easiest place for that

[dusky sundial]

The other option would be to host it yourself if you have a computer that can stay on 24/7

Galaxygate is pretty good, cheapest is $3/month i think

[earnest phoenix]

i dont rlly have job rn

If your bot grows up too much, you would also require something more than a VPS

A dedicated server

awww fuck

thats like 100s a month

fml

[dusky sundial]

You can check the pinned messages in this channel for some more info about VPS's

There's also a list with hosts there

[earnest phoenix]

• OVH: https://www.ovh.com/us/vps/
  Starting at $3.35/mo for 1 core, 2GB RAM, 20GB SSD

ℹ This is a list of hosting providers, not a backing/support for them. You will need to make your own decision. All $dollar prices are in USD.

[dusky sundial]

I recommend just starting out with a really cheap one. You'll notice if your bot starts to blow up but to be honest the chances aren't too high unless it's a really unique and useful bot

[earnest phoenix]

Okay that's too many embeds lmao

[misty sigil]

lye node

[earnest phoenix]

so how would i go about setting up a donationd cmd

[dusky sundial]

I'd just make a command that shows a link to your paypal.me or whatever

patreon

wherever you wanna get paid

[earnest phoenix]

good point

does patreon send to paypal as buisiness payment?

[dusky sundial]

No clue, never used patreon

[earnest phoenix]

bc my paypal isnt verified so i cant recieve business payments

bc im not paying taxes on that shit

Patreon has a lot of payment methods redirected to you

[earnest phoenix]

bitcoin?

So check it out if you want

I don't think it accepts bitcoin

[dusky sundial]

If you're unsure whether you want to go for a VPS or not I recommend Vultr. They charge per hour rather than taking the entire amount at the start of the month ^^

[earnest phoenix]

it says it can go directly to a bank

so i guess that would work

but ill need to setup a bank acc

shit

Well good luck with that i guess

[earnest phoenix]

thx ig

one more question

how do i make the bot send a message in a channel every 24 hours

Set an interval

setInterval()

ok f that

[dusky sundial]

It's against the rules of a bot to have unprovoked messages though, no? Or at least you'd need a way to disable them per server

[earnest phoenix]

seriously last question and im gone

how do i make the mute cmd remove all roles instead of 1

bc one role doesnt work in every server bc they can be named dif

[earnest phoenix]

It's not, it's just not recommended to abuse the API as in making many API calls in a short amount of time

But 24 hours is fine

my mute cmd is a mess and i just want it to remove all roles

[earnest phoenix]

If you didn't know, you can set the roles, <GuildMember>.roles.set([])

Removes all the roles

that will remove all the roles for the mentioned user?

Well member cause users don't have roles

but i mean even if they had say admin role or som

will it remove admin, member, vip, like every role

[dusky sundial]

The bot would need to have a higher role than the role it wants to remove

[earnest phoenix]

ofc

If the bot's highest role position is higher than the position of the member's highest role

Then yes

welp

now to figure out how to code the mute cmd

fuck me

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.users.first();
    if(target){
        let mainRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Member');
        let muteRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Muted');

        let memberTarget = message.guild.members.cache.get(target.id);

        memberTarget.roles.remove(mainRole.id);
        memberTarget.roles.add(muteRole.id);
        message.channel.send(`<@${memberTarget.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');

[dusky sundial]

Don't hesitate to ask here if you run into any issues you can't google your way out of. But remember, no spoonfeeding

[earnest phoenix]

thats how shitty mine is

let mainRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Member');
let muteRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Muted');

thats the issue

is there anyway i can tweak that code with urs

<GuildMember>.roles.set([])

So it would remove all the roles?

yea

[dusky sundial]

memberTarget.roles.set([]);

[earnest phoenix]

thats it :/

I don't recommend doing that upfront, check if the user exists before proceeding through the code

Wait a minute

Why are you getting the member twice?

wdym

Oh well you're getting a user

If you didn't know

yea...

you need to get the user to check if it exists

There's <Message>.mentions.members.first()

So you don't have to get the member

As that already returns it

so what do i take out?

What do you need help with?

message.mentions.users.first() → message.mentions.members.first()

Remove let memberTarget = message.guild.members.cache.get(user.id);

Rename all memberTarget to target

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.users.first();
    if(target){

        memberTarget.roles.set([]);
        message.channel.send(`<@${memberTarget.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

oh its js

better

Man

memberTarget → target

[solemn latch]

also i think you want .mentions.members

not users

[earnest phoenix]

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.members.first();
    if(target){


        let Target = message.guild.members.cache.get(target.id);

        Target.roles.set([]);
        message.channel.send(`<@${memberTarget.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

there

Why to get the member again?

bru

IM SO CONFUSED

Remove

let Target = message.guild.members.cache.get(target.id);```

bro

Rename Target to target

ffs

here

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.members.first();
    if(target){


        let target = message.guild.members.cache.get(target.id);

        target.roles.set([]);
        message.channel.send(`<@${target.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

better?

WHAT

IM TRYING

I said remove it

u just said change it

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.hasPermission("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.members.first();
    if(target){


        target.roles.set([]);
        message.channel.send(`<@${target.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

happy?

im triggered

Now that's pog

better be

Also don't use <GuildMember>.hasPermission()

Because it'll be removed

wdym

[lament ravine]

v13 wont have this method anymore

[earnest phoenix]

next discord.js update or others will remove it

They're gonna remove that method, so you gotta use <GuildMember>.permissions.has()

if(!message.member.permisions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){

?

Yes

Spelling tho

Missed an s

ik

now

how do i make it add the muted role

and so it isnt my server only that it works in

i need to have the bot create a muted role or check for one?

Make it so if it can't find the Muted role, create one

right

and how do i do that

LMAO

i know im fucking stupid now

ill just copy and paste from google or som

wait @earnest phoenix

would

if(!guild.roles(Muted))
Create guild.role(Muted) or som work

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/RoleManager?scrollTo=create

and what do i do with that

how do i make it run that when missing the role

ik its a if but whats the if

if (!mutedRole) mutedRole = /* create role */```

how do i define mutedRole

guild.cache

?

You already did

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.permissions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.permissions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.members.first();
    if(target){


        target.roles.set([]);
        message.channel.send(`<@${target.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

u made me delete it

I didn't say remove those tho

or someone did

im killing myself

im done

Bro no

im jk

but fr wtf

so const mutedRole = +

or use let mutedRole

let mutedRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Muted');```

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.permissions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.permissions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.members.first();
    if(target){

        let mutedRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Muted');


        target.roles.set([]);
        message.channel.send(`<@${target.user.id}> Has been muted`);

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

now put if (!mutedRole) mutedRole = /* create role */ below let mutedRole

[boreal iron]

I would check for non case-sensitive

[earnest phoenix]

Yes, but this time you gotta actually create the role

if (!mutedRole){

shit

one sec

[earnest phoenix]

Well we'll be creating a role with that exact name if it doesn't exist so

Should be good

if (!mutedRole){
guild.roles.create()
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error);
}

that works?

You gotta assign the value of the created role to mutedRole

huh

[boreal iron]

Ah alright. Looks like a long way until you both reach this goal lmao

[earnest phoenix]

mutedRole = // Create role here

so what do i put there

LMAO

const mutedRole = Muted

or...

if (!mutedRole) mutedRole =
guild.roles.create()
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error);

there

mutedRole = await <Message>.guild.roles.create({
   data: {
      name: 'Muted'
   }
});```

where tf do i put that

wtf

below the create thing

[dusky sundial]

I think this is why they want you to learn JS before making a bot in JS lol

[earnest phoenix]

yea but my school can fuck off

they do everything so slow

[gilded olive]

[dusky sundial]

You can learn JS outside of school though

[earnest phoenix]

hows that

i aint paying

[dusky sundial]

Tutorials, docs, youtube videos

you name it

[gilded olive]

Plenty free tutorials online for free

[earnest phoenix]

There's literally millions of free guides on how to learn it

fuck my life

[dusky sundial]

Don't run before you know how to walk fella

[earnest phoenix]

ill just stick to yt and google

well im abt to fuck off anyway

just needed help with mute cmd

mutedRole = await <Message>.guild.roles.create({
data: {
name: 'Muted'
}
});

that goes below when the role got created?

if (!mutedRole){
guild.roles.create()
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error);
}

mutedRole = await <Message>.guild.roles.create({
data: {
name: 'Muted'
}
});

like that

Learning JS
http://eloquentjavascript.net/

https://github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS

https://nodeschool.io/

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference

so no more help?

[zenith terrace]

when you literally moved the creating role out of the if statement

[earnest phoenix]

You should learn it before attempting to make that tho

HOW

[gilded olive]

He just sent you like 5 links

Maybe take some time and read?

[earnest phoenix]

bro i have all my code alr

i just needed help with 1 cmd

i alr have a fully working bot

[dusky sundial]

What's the point of making a cmd if you don't understand the code they're showing you?

[earnest phoenix]

i do, i just dont know where to place it

bc of the way the code works,

[gilded olive]

Another bot developer that dosent know what they are doing

[earnest phoenix]

i thought .catch went at the end

If you don't know where it should be placed, then you don't understand it

can u just tell me where to put it

then ill go read docs

[pure lion]

how can i make my site not look like shit with basic html?

[earnest phoenix]

not use html

[dusky sundial]

Learn CSS :)

[earnest phoenix]

Use style tags

if (!mutedRole){
guild.roles.create()
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error);
}

mutedRole = await <Message>.guild.roles.create({
data: {
name: 'Muted'
}
});

[zenith terrace]

Cannot read property of 'help' of undefined

[earnest phoenix]

the creation is not outside

that says if missing mutedRole than to create it

[earnest phoenix]

K one last attempt

if (!mutedRole) mutedRole = await <Message>.guild.roles.create({
   data: {
      name: 'Muted'
   }
});```

then assign the value

Aight imma watch this channel's stupidness i guess

🍿

[zenith terrace]

I'll bring the popco- oh nvm

[earnest phoenix]

so thats all i need

[gilded olive]

Style

[dusky sundial]

You're trying to create an empty role, you're not putting anything in the parentheses

[gilded olive]

Simply isnt anyway else

[earnest phoenix]

yea thats what im trying to say

ur not changing the perms

[zenith terrace]

then go look at how to change perms

[dusky sundial]

No, you're literally not creating anything with guild.roles.create()

[earnest phoenix]

I didn't include permission changes because you can't deny them on creation, you can only overwrite permissions on channels

[earnest phoenix]

if (!mutedRole) mutedRole = await <Message>.guild.roles.create({
data: {
name: 'Muted'
}
});

your making a blank role with name Muted

wdym

[dusky sundial]

Yeah, at least you've created a role now

[earnest phoenix]

yea

Copy paste moment

[earnest phoenix]

exactly

But that was just an example

[zenith terrace]

no copy paste, 100% not

[earnest phoenix]

Read the documentation

wait

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/typedef/RoleData

[dusky sundial]

This channel isn't meant to help you create entire commands

[earnest phoenix]

target.roles.set(mutedRole)

thats fine right?

No

[zenith terrace]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/typedef/RoleData

[earnest phoenix]

It takes an array

[mutedRole]

then how does

target.roles.set([]);

work

to remove all roles

That just sets it to empty roles

Pass

[mutedRole] instead of []

so target.roles.set[mutedRole]

🗿

set([mutedRole])

[dusky sundial]

You're gonna need a weeks worth of sleep to recover

[earnest phoenix]

done

right..?

[earnest phoenix]

Probably years

idgaf about the actual roles perms

is that right atleast

You're setting the roles multiple times

🗿

yea

once to clear roles

then to add the role

The one i showed already clears the roles and adds that role

HOW

NO IT DOESNT

It absolutely does

where

all it says if the role is missing to create it

What?

module.exports = {
name: 'mute',
description: "Mutes Chosen Member",
execute(message, args){
if(!message.member.permissions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
message.channel.send('You dont have those perms!')
}

    if(message.member.permissions.has("MUTE_MEMBERS")){
    const target = message.mentions.members.first();
    if(target){

        let mutedRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Muted');


        target.roles.set([]);
        target.roles.set([mutedRole]);
        message.channel.send(<@${target.user.id}> Has been muted);

        if (!mutedRole) mutedRole = await Message.guild.roles.create({
            data: {
               name: 'Muted'
            }
         });

    } else{
        message.channel.send('user not found or could not be muted');
    }
}
}

}

that says if the role is missing to create it

nothing else

[dusky sundial]

You're also checking if the role exists after you've already tried to assign the role

im actually going to kill my self in a minute

im not joking

where

the

fuck

do

i

put

it

@earnest phoenix if u just tell me where to put it then i can stop asking you questions

[silver vector]

@earnest phoenix What do you want

[earnest phoenix]

I literally told you like 5 times now

no

u told me what to put

99% brain cells lost so far

not where to put

JUST TELL ME AGAIN THEN

[dusky sundial]

[earnest phoenix]

Sigh

Under

let mutedRole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Muted');```

[zenith terrace]

lemme introduce you to the DBL discord server, where you wont get spoonfed and told to look at js tutorials and docs

[earnest phoenix]

if (!mutedRole) mutedRole = await Message.guild.roles.create({

name: 'Muted'
}
});

under that?

DUDE

ya know what

im done with life

Dude no wtf

[zenith terrace]

orr look at the docs

[earnest phoenix]

SEE

[dusky sundial]

The guy literally just told you where to put the thing you were asking about

[earnest phoenix]

I FUCKING DID IT

[dusky sundial]

There you go

[earnest phoenix]

Message

if i run this and it errors out

i quit

message

bro

wtf

await is only valid in a async function

so do i just put async in front of execute

no bc that fucks it up

so WHAT NOW

Before not after

t

async execute

bro

ur command sucks ass

it doesnt even remove member role

what the fuck

@earnest phoenix

[zenith terrace]

no one even talked about removing the member role

[earnest phoenix]

target.roles.set([]) was supposed to remove all roles

it didnt do shit

It should work if the bot has a higher role than the target's highest role

[dusky sundial]

I'd sure love to keep helping someone who tells me my help sucks

[earnest phoenix]

has the highest role in the server

And that action can't be done on the server owner

no shit

i have 120 members

not a single one worked

Is there any errors?

when i did it on a higher role all it said was missing perms

which is normal

lower role, no

[trim spear]

Hey bro, i want to ask.
How to disable @everyone & @here in say command?

The mention

[earnest phoenix]

Use allowedMentions option in MessageOptions

Or just disabledMentions

[trim spear]

Where i put that?

[earnest phoenix]

so now what, how do i make it remove all roles

<TextChannel>.send('Some string here', {
   disabledMentions: 'everyone'
});```

[trim spear]

Lets i try it!

[quartz kindle]

disableMentions will be removed in v13

but should work for now

[solemn latch]

oh?

[earnest phoenix]

Wait when

I never saw a PR saying it would be removed

so nice

now i have to put all my code back

im done

i quit coding this damn bot

too much time just to redo it all

[quartz kindle]

in v13 it will be like this ```js
channel.send("something", {
allowedMentions: {
parse:["roles","users","everyone"]
}
})

[earnest phoenix]

That would only parse it tho

im leaving

So it doesn't disable the mention

gl anyway

[mortal quiver]

ok

[quartz kindle]

if not parsed it should be disabled

[solemn latch]

so disabled by default?

[quartz kindle]

i think so

[solemn latch]

i suggested that like last week

[zenith terrace]

@earnest phoenix you get your braincells back now??

[solemn latch]

2-3 hour recovery time

[earnest phoenix]

It'll take 69 << 420 (1104) hours to recover

why is it not working
btw this is a leveling command

    let messagefetch = db.fetch(`messages_${message.guild.id}_${message.author.id}`)
    let levelfetch = db.fetch(`level_${message.guild.id}_${message.author.id}`)

it just said 0 message and 0 levels

[earnest phoenix]

So if I want like a embed, and a embed without what do I dom.

?

[earnest phoenix]

Because it's set to 0?

[sudden geyser]

nah, roles don't mean anything
