crystal wigeon
actually i could really use a code review xD, well its gcp VM i dont think the internet is bad..
i upgraded it to 16GB 4vcpus
and a separate sql instance of 7.5GB and 2vcpus, i figured the bottleneck is not from the DB side
quartz kindle
gcp is soo expensive lul
crystal wigeon
yeah
quartz kindle
how big is your bot?
quartz kindle
4k ws ping is horrible
crystal wigeon
ikr but it fluctuates
earnest phoenix
Hello
quartz kindle
and 600 servers is very little
earnest phoenix
Please Help Me
crystal wigeon
really not sure why it keeps lagging
also i noted that whenever i send a message embed, it takesd more than 3sec even tho the data already computed
quartz kindle
well if your ws ping is 3k, that explains it
it takes 3 seconds for the command to reach your bot
crystal wigeon
why is the ws ping 3k in the first place ;-;;
i dont think it has something to do code?
quartz kindle
what is those 2.1k players?
fickle basin
Hello everyone.
crystal wigeon
thats how many users use the bot
quartz kindle
thats all?
crystal wigeon
2.1k thats all ? ;-;
quartz kindle
nothing like a game or some activity?
crystal wigeon
its lagging a lot
itts a game
the bot
really think you have to try it out
xd
quartz kindle
how does the game work? what does the bot have to do with those players?
quartz kindle
have you tried measuring ram, cpu, disk and network?
crystal wigeon
yeah i see the graphs, the cpu util is 57% peaked today on a 16GB RAM and 4vcpu VM
quartz kindle
yeah i see the graphs, the cpu util is 57% peaked today on a 16GB RAM and 4vcpu ...
57% cpu? wtf
earnest phoenix
I Want To Make Some Commands That Only Voters Can Use
crystal wigeon
57% cpu? wtf
ye
quartz kindle
just for comparison
earnest phoenix
I Want To Make Some Commands That Only Voters Can Use
if has votes check the docs
quartz kindle
my bot has 7.5k servers and runs on a single 1 core cpu, 1gb vm
and cpu usage is 5%
earnest phoenix
if has votes
quartz kindle
thats the issue
whatever your bot is doing, its possibly doing it very inneficiently
earnest phoenix
and cpu usage is 5%
altough you use ds.light
earnest phoenix
whatever your bot is doing, its possibly doing it very inneficiently
true
quartz kindle
djslight doesnt affect cpu
crystal wigeon
true,
quartz kindle
you get the same cpu with djs
crystal wigeon
im using djs
earnest phoenix
djslight doesnt affect cpu
only ram
crystal wigeon
not the light ver
also could really use code reviews
since the player base keeps increasing and i have exams ;-;
so need to figure out a good vm
earnest phoenix
What is the docs exact name ?
quartz kindle
try measuing some stuff, like nethogs, htop and iotop
install them if you dont have them installed
quartz kindle
show a pic of yours and i'll show you
you're using 50% of a single core
scroll down with the arrow keys to find which process is using it
quartz kindle
also press F5 to view it in tree mode, its easier to understand
ah so your cpu is not constantly at 50%
crystal wigeon
yeah the client
quartz kindle
does it jump to 50% often? or is it always at 1% ?
quartz kindle
and its always the client?
quartz kindle
ok
crystal wigeon
cpu%
crystal wigeon
what does presences mean?
is it the "listening" thing thats displayed on the bot?
quartz kindle
to see people's activity and status
crystal wigeon
nop
quartz kindle
do you have presences enabled in your discord developer app?
crystal wigeon
nop
quartz kindle
does your bot do any downloads?
crystal wigeon
nop, except for lavalink where it streams YT music but it isnt using much
it streams audio only i presume, lavalink and erelajs
do you mind testing the bot? like actually using it and stuff
quartz kindle
ah ok, so that explains these numbers
crystal wigeon
you might know where its wrong
lavalink?
i even had lavalink on a separate vm
before

makes sense
can i fix it?
or just gotta wait?
crystal wigeon
iotop
modest maple
well cloudflare you can clear cache or switch to development mode
your browser you can clear cache for that size and storage
if server is caching it just restart it
drifting wedge
if server is caching it just restart it
its not
i think its cloudflare
cuz the other stuff works fine
when i update
wait
the entire /static/ folder isnt updaying
so i think its ngiinx
modest maple
i dont use nginx for anything other than the reverse proxy so cant help you much there
drifting wedge
uhh i dont wanna like restart the server
crystal wigeon
same
drifting wedge
so what can i do?
modest maple
just restart nginx?
crystal wigeon
well changes might require you to restart
drifting wedge
just restart nginx?
i restarted the webserver already
crystal wigeon
check for logs
modest maple
well then something in your implementation is wrong 
crystal wigeon
also the browser logs
drifting wedge
uhhh
feral aspen
I'd like to ask a question.
I am making a mute command and I basically saved a role ID into a variable named as Mute
Which one is correct.
const muterole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.id === Mute.id)
// or
const muterole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.id === Mute)
Which one is correct?
The second one?
cinder patio
Neither. Use get if you have a role's id to get the object
feral aspen
Basically I have the user be able to set a muted role for his server.
And once he set the muted role, the role ID will be saved.
The role id is considered as server.mutedRole
server.mutedRole = Mute Role ID
Now for the mute command to work, should I use get or find?
I did this.
const muterole = message.guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.id === server.mutedRole);
you can use both, but using find is way slower, because role objects are already paired with their ids
so use get
cinder patio
yes

summer torrent

cinder patio
summer torrent
require("child_process").exec("git pull")
stable nimbus
Okay.

stable nimbus
Okay, thank you.
So the child process will send a message to the chat or will I have to program that myself?
cinder patio
The child_process module is for executing shell commands
summer torrent
yes you have to code it
feral aspen
The child_process module is for executing shell commands
Hey, I have done the command and it seems to work, but when there is no ID saved or in other words, equals to null, it errors, and I tried doing this.
if(server.mutedRole === null) {
return message.channel.send("No muted role")
}
Doesn't work.
cinder patio
Better to do !server.mutedRole in case it's undefined and not null
stable nimbus
Okay, how would I get it to post the results then? I never used child_process before.
cinder patio

the exec function accepts a callback which contains the output in a string
stable nimbus
Okay, how would I put that in a message?
cinder patio
// stdout is your result
});
const muterole = message.guild.roles.cache.get(server.mutedRole);
if(!server.mutedRole) {
return message.channel.send("No mute role")
}
do I make it !muterole instead?
cinder patio
both work, but in the future you may have to fetch the role instead of getting it from the cache, so checking if the server.mutedRole is missing first is better
feral aspen
Ok.
I will do it, one second.
if(server.mutedRole === null) {
message.channel.send("You have not set a muted role.");
}
const muterole = message.guild.roles.cache.get(server.mutedRole);
Is that the correct order?
stable nimbus
What database are you using?
earnest phoenix
Hello
stable nimbus
@cinder patio Thank you! It does exactly what I need it to do.
stable nimbus

earnest phoenix

eager crag
Hi
feral aspen
What database are you using?
I am using MongoDB
cobalt spruce
cinder patio
np! ❤️
feral aspen
GoogleFeud, I have done it all
if(!server.mutedRole) {
return message.channel.send("You have not set a muted role.")
}
const muterole = message.guild.roles.cache.get(server.mutedRole);
Sometimes people put wrong role ID and makes the bot error, is there an if statement that checks if it's a valid role?
cinder patio
You should also check if muterole is undefined
feral aspen
Didn't !server.mutedRole check the problem already?
cinder patio
That only checks if there's a role id in the database
feral aspen
Oh, so !muterole?
cinder patio
oh, wait.. where do people put the wrong id? You're not using any user-provided arguments in the snippet
feral aspen
People will be able to provide a valid role by using my !config command, but if they somehow outsmart the bot and do stuff, I want to do an if statement just to be safe you know, that's why.
cinder patio
You should put a check in !config if the role is valid, and in the snipped above, too
feral aspen
You should also check if `muterole` is undefined
Is there something I could do to check that? if so, I read the above.
feral aspen
You should put a check in `!config` if the role is valid, and in the snipped abo...
I know, but that's my question, how can I check if the role is valid at here..
cinder patio
An if statement checking if muterole is falsey should be enough
feral aspen
if(!muterole) return "Mute role is not a role or whatever."
I put that after declaring it, okay I'll try it out.

@quartz kindle
quartz kindle
do you know how to use fs?
quartz kindle
fs is a built-in node module
you can use it to read/write files and folders and interact with your local file system
fs has a function to read a folder and return the names of the files inside it: fs.readdir() and its sync version: fs.readdirSync()
and also a promise version fs.promises.readdir()
stable nimbus
And a promise ensures that it happens.
restive furnace
and also a promise version fs.promises.readdir()
or just include fs/promises :D
quartz kindle
no, promises have nothing to do with assurance
stable nimbus
Oh.
So using fs.readdirSync(); how would I get it to see if a file is there but not in the cache?
quartz kindle
the function returns a list of file names as an array
so you have to loop over the array and check if that file exists in your require cache
you probably know how to use the require cache, you should have some code for it in your unloadCommand function
quartz kindle
you give it to readdir

woven hamlet
lmao fs is what made me switch from js to python
cinder patio
why lmao it's so easy
stable nimbus
@quartz kindle So this is what I have:
const folder = args.slice(0).join('');
if(!folder) {
//Returns an error
}
else {
fs.readdirSync(`../../commands/${folder}`);
i think it was because i got mad at it for not reading the directories to make a better help command
mellow kelp
recursion is always your friend 
quartz kindle
<@!180112943612952577> So this is what I have:
```js
const folder = args.slice(...
files = fs.readdirSync()
then files will be an array of file names in that folder
stable nimbus
Okay, fixed.
quartz kindle
also, if you're giving it a user defined folder, use a try catch
stable nimbus
Now what?
quartz kindle
because it will throw an error if the folder was not found
stable nimbus
I should do that huh.
try {
if(!folder) {
//error
}
else {
const files = fs.readdirSync(`../../commands/${folder}`);
}
catch (e) {
console.error(e);
return message.channel.send(`error`);
}
Hows that?

modest maple
it wasnt a question it was a statement but sure
fickle basin
https://paste.mod.gg/doyuyiyuhu.py No, I asked a question... I asked what I was missing inside my bot.command codeline because the event works, but even when I turn the command into another event, it does not seem to want to do it's function.
It is like Pycharm is not letting me call upon multiple actions or events or commands.
modest maple
I see No sign of a question but what ever lmao.
no
you're just not using discord.py properly lol
fickle basin
Wdym by that? I can run multiple commands and events on my other bot.
It is set up properly
It is the coding itself
modest maple
Maybe you should read the link
cuz i can guarantee you're code is causing the error lol
fickle basin
I know it is too, but that is strange because my other bot uses just bot.command and bot.event, no .process required
modest maple
again, you do... if you're overriding the event that the commands require 
fickle basin
Well I get that, but my other bot does not have it and it runs all events and commands fine
Which is why I was confused
modest maple
The framework's system hasnt changed majorly in the last 2 years it behaves the same way regardless
you either have a listener or are processing the messages or just not using a message event at all 
fickle basin
I have my other bot in another server lmfao
It is in review rn for top.gg
It works
modest maple
again, you're point doesn't matter lol The framework doesn't magically behave differently for a different bot

hey guys
https://hatebin.com could anyone please tell me why my code doesn't work properly? I mean, the console.log() does give the good id tho
but after that it doesn't do anything else.

what if you use separate files and a queue?
i mean you can
but it would take some extra effort
mellow kelp
aight
earnest phoenix
but are these text files, binary files or json files?
json files. rn i use one long one (bad ik, it yeets itself a lot) but im rewriting to use directories and lots of tiny little json files
quartz kindle
well thats less bad
the worst thing about json is its inability to be partially edited, so every single operation needs to process the entire file
if the file is small its not that much of an issue
quartz kindle
i had a 15mb json file
mellow kelp
oh no
quartz kindle
lmao
earnest phoenix
but im thinking lots of byte size json files
quartz kindle
just make sure your vps has a decent disk
because you're gonna be trashing it quite a lot

imagin using a vps

another tip
dont overwite files directly
write a temp file, then rename

Hello
How do I get the voting information?
Library Python

dont overwite files directly
why, whats wrong with that
quartz kindle
tools -> python
quartz kindle
why, whats wrong with that
a crash during writing will lead to lost data
earnest phoenix
a crash during writing will lead to lost data
oh so thats why my db kept yeeting itself
quartz kindle
yup
earnest phoenix
tbh i had a bug with my code so it crashed every 3 minutes so...
quartz kindle
xD
mellow kelp
mellow kelp
it might work with a backup system or something
but i mean
at this point i guess a proper database would be easier kek
earnest phoenix
it might work with a backup system or something
quartz kindle
writing then renaming will ensure the data will be intact, as the rename operation is atomic and done by the operating system
and if it crashes during writing, the original file wont be affected
earnest phoenix
h
my thought was if i make it lots of small files
and a queue
it can only yeet one member in one guild at once
so miniscule loss
quartz kindle
well thats also true

how to get webhook_auth='password'?

I did this because I exceeded the character limit, but this time it says undefined. How do I fix it?

go to your top.gg bot edit page

you write your own auth password there

you're missing field titles
setting them to null results in the undefined, try just using the title again @urban surge
you cant not have a title

you need to have a title. if you dont want a title, you can use a zero width space

well today i learned that a bad purge command is a really bad idea
some guy decided it was a great idea to delete 9999 messages and my bot's cpu usage just skyrocketed to 100%

gloomy quarry
I want to take the ID of who voted, but this shows an error
http://prntscr.com/y6po2s
how to fix?
quartz kindle
some guy decided it was a great idea to delete 9999 messages and my bot's cpu us...
wut
how
you mean discord bulk delete right?
mellow kelp
yea
quartz kindle
that shouldnt affect your cpu at all
quartz kindle
that makes no sense, its api requests, your cpu has no business doing anything, its just waiting 90% of the time
mellow kelp
i mean tbh i don't know how many messages the guy deleted exactly
but the last thing on console was a "Command 'clear' executed [...]" message
quartz kindle
you're not blocking anything are you? lmao
mellow kelp
nope 
quartz kindle
then how, it makes no sense
mellow kelp
no idea
my bot divides the message deletion into groups of 100
so it sends a request for every 100 messages
maybe a really big number could have caused too many requests?
quartz kindle
for(let i = 0; i < 99; i++) {
await channel.bulkDelete(100);
}
``` if you do something like thisits gonna be idle 99% of the time
0% cpu usage
urban surge
blame discord
okey :/
mellow kelp
await channel.bulkDelete(rest);
for (let i = 0; i < extra; i++) {
await channel.bulkDelete(100);
}
yeah this should have worked
now i got no idea how my bot crashed
quartz kindle
weird
earnest phoenix
Is anyone able to help me make a dashboard for my bot
quartz kindle
a dahbore
solemn latch
do you have a specific question or?
earnest phoenix
No
lyric mountain
now i got no idea how my bot crashed
Store a logfile for each level
Sometimes it's handy to have a trace log
Or debug if you want less verbosed file
mellow kelp
yeah that's probably a good idea
solemn latch
No
I would start by reading the discord oauth docs then, or if you dont understand web development doing some research on that.
opal plank
No
its very hard that anyone will handhold you throughout the whole way, you need either a more specific question or ask something like what i should use
as far as finding someone to help co-work with you, this isnt the place. If you need guides or ask a question, then just ask for it
earnest phoenix
Would you like to be a developer for me
opal plank
this is not the place to ask for that, you'll need to hire a dev for you
earnest phoenix
Do you know any good servers
opal plank
ido not, i think the coder's den had an advertising thing somewhere
either that or discord bots, though that was talked about long time ago in Discord-Api

it should basically sort -1 / 1

"I made this on paint because i cant find nothing compared" im trying to make when i put the command "?off" that he will show in an embed that is offline but when i put "?on" this will make that on again, how can i do this, pls help me!
blissful coral
Off and on for what
steel arch
Is an example
Im trying to make the bot show a thing when i put the command
I dont know how to explain very well
blissful coral
//command function
//End of command
message.channel.send('command done')```?Can't help if you can't explain it
steel arch
For example i put the command "?closed" or "?open" and when i put that command he will send that for the embed, and when i put the command "?showembed" he shows the embed, and the embed shows if its close or open. I think its this
Its an intuitive embed, i think
steel arch
you want two commands for one thing?
Yes, but i want that command make the embed say if its close or open, well if i think better i can use only one command!
blissful coral
Then you need a db
steel arch
Im gonna use it on a fiveM discord server, and if the guy say ?close, then in the embed he gonna show that the applications are closed
blissful coral
//Close command
class close extends Command {
execute: (client, message, args) {
const db = require(``) //Require your db or if assigned to client use that instead
db.query //Or whatever you use [mysql, mongoose, etc.]
//save
message.channel.send(`Closed`)
}
)```Example of close command
bad example but
Then just make a query to the db to check if it is open or closed
bitter badger
I have to do the bot verification and for the intents, do I need to specify like GUILDS or more specifically GUILDS -> GUILD_CREATE etc?
lyric mountain

ahhhh now it makes sense
lyric mountain
so you want two commands basically: an "apply" command to register yourself in something and an application manager command, which opens or closes applications right?
if it's closed then show an "applications are closed" error to whoever uses the apply command
so yeah, definitely go for databases
