development

[frozen rock]

@zenith terrace i just didn't understand

will you help or not?

[zenith terrace]

with what

[frozen rock]

leave this link

[marble juniper]

can't you just do it yourself

[frozen rock]

no.

[marble juniper]

you don't need a link for that

[frozen rock]

not speaking with you

[zenith terrace]

https://top.gg/bot/bot_id/edit

[frozen rock]

:)

[marble juniper]

another "I only want help from this person" guy smh

are you on windows 10 maybe

lol

oh

well is there still a node process running in the background maybe

[dreamy gulch]

sudo killall -9 node

[marble juniper]

ye

just kill the node processes running if any

lol

[cinder patio]

Hmm.. it looks like the error is coming from dblapi.js

[marble juniper]

oh

also btw

don't use dblapi.js

use the new lib

[cinder patio]

dblapi is creating a webhook listening on port 5000

yeah

[marble juniper]

https://docs.top.gg

kek

well

the original maintainer is banned here

so they made a new lib

[cinder patio]

wait what why were they banned

[marble juniper]

you can read the docs and then the javascript section

also original maintainer was tonkku

I believe

but tonkku is banned sooooo

[cinder patio]

yeah wasn't he part of the team I'm out of the loop on this one

[zenith terrace]

havent heard his name in so long lol

[marble juniper]

he was

[cinder patio]

we shouldn't discuss this here anyways

[zenith terrace]

^

[marble juniper]

yeah

my point is don't use the old library

its deprecteated and obviously wont be updated anymore

just use the new one

I think every like 15 minutes

not exactly sure

but it does its job and wont get you ratelimited

lol

ok just looked and it says every 30 minutes

[earnest phoenix]

no

you have a misunderstanding on how topgg webhooks work

webhooks are reverse APIs, instead of you making a request to top.gg, top.gg makes a request to you

[marble juniper]

TL;DR
topgg webhooks and discord ones are not related to each other

[earnest phoenix]

^ therefore, you need to have a HTTP server active to listen for requests from top.gg

it's your own arbitrary string

you set it on your bot's page and you use it in your HTTP server to verify the request is coming from top.gg

[marble juniper]

you just type in any sort of auth and then validate it in your code that it is the same like you specified

[earnest phoenix]

yes

[marble juniper]

ye

[earnest phoenix]

don't make it a weak one though

[marble juniper]

you can think of it kinda like as a password validation

so make it like ur password

no

you do http://
then followed by the ip of wherever you are running the bot on and then /dblwebhook

so for example

http://184.58.164.96:5000/dblwehook

as an example

(not a real ip)

id suggest to make it something like 3000 or 4000

lol

[pale vessel]

any open port

[marble juniper]

any port that isn't in use

[river thistle]

haha he said 69 funny

[lament ruin]

8080 is the most common

[marble juniper]

or

3000

[river thistle]

or

8000

[marble juniper]

yes

[pale vessel]

42069

[river thistle]

6666

[marble juniper]

app.listen makes your server listen to requests on the given port

[pale vessel]

took a while for me to realize it was you cstef

[river thistle]

yup

its me

the overflow guy

[marble juniper]

snack overflow

[river thistle]

I am not a developer anymore

[marble juniper]

iq overflow

[river thistle]

clearly not my case

[river thistle]

you get the user id

so you just have to fetch it

on discord.js its simple as client.users.fetch(userID)

[tribal siren]

https://docs.top.gg/

what's your language tho

[cinder patio]

Are you using discord.js or eris?

[summer torrent]

is it v12

client.users.fetch()

[tribal siren]

is there a thing like fetchUser

[summer torrent]

yes, in v11

yes iirc

[earnest phoenix]

If you want to know the changes from v11 to v12, here's a link that would help you
https://discordjs.guide/additional-info/changes-in-v12.html?v=12

[sterile lantern]

i want to set the cname to my github link user.github.io, how would i do it?

i tried putting domain in name but didnt work

req.vote.user.tag

maybe

what is req.vote.user?

or req.vote actually

then req.vote.user.tag would work

[mellow kelp]

no it won't

req.vote.user is just an ID string

[sterile lantern]

wh

o

[mellow kelp]

you can't use req.vote.user.tag

im pretty sure the previous solution was correct

[earnest phoenix]

client.users.fetch() returns a promise so be sure to resolve it

[split cipher]

Anyone know how to avoid getting rate limited from sharding bot? When I login, the rate limit pops up in the log

[lament rock]

Increase the amount of time before connecting each shard. The default recommended is 5000ms

That's the ratelimit as well

[flat oak]

Just out of curiosity, what language do you think is better? .py or .js?

I have experience in python but I was just wondering what u think

[earnest phoenix]

neither exdee

[flat oak]

Lol

[lament rock]

Depends on your work load. Python is good for AIML and JS is just something easy to learn as it can be used full stack

Both are pretty powerful

[flat oak]

Ok thanks

[cinder patio]

It's self-explanatory

[lament rock]

The error explains itself

CanvasRenderService doesn't have any constructor signatures. Is it a function or some other primitive type?

[cinder patio]

Looking at the examples of the package you're using, you should use the ChartJSNodeCanvas class

[wicked pivot]

"chartjs-node-canvas"

[cinder patio]

yes

https://github.com/SeanSobey/ChartjsNodeCanvas#Usage

the package doesn't export CanvasRenderService at all, it's not anywhere in the code

[solemn leaf]

Lol

if you want to explore the package in your vsc ctrl click the require or import for it

[wicked pivot]

replace CanvasRenderService to ChartJSNodeCanvas ?

[sterile lantern]

im using a test domain and i keep geting this Redirected you too many times.

<domain> redirected you too many times

im using cloudfare

these are the A records

and are proxied

idk why it isnt loading

it works non-cloudfare

so ugh

it happens as soon as i add the name servers for cloudfare

so annoyin

[wicked pivot]

Error: An options parameter object is required

[solemn leaf]

well you ddi something wrong

options is required

you didnt state soemthing

[wicked pivot]

Doesn't have the picture when he sends himself

user.username + "#" + user.discriminator

[misty sigil]

try playing about with ssl

try Full and Full (strict)

await the fetch

[wicked pivot]

const user = await ...

[misty sigil]

await client.users.fetch()

[sterile lantern]

Oh that worked

WHat did that do??

Lmao

[tame kestrel]

the fetch function returns a promise, you'll need to await it or resolve the promise somehow.

[wicked pivot]

app.post("/dblwebhook", webhook.middleware(), async(req, res) => {

[static trench]

hello. i wanted my D.py bot to have an error message if a command is run in Dm's. how do i go about doing that?

[wicked pivot]

""

[earnest phoenix]

It'll be more helpful to post the error instead of saying that you got an error.

[static trench]

yes

so the bot messages like "no commands in DM's"

[earnest phoenix]

Oh, I misread that

[static trench]

ya

[earnest phoenix]

Are you using the guild_only decorator?

[static trench]

i dont think so

[earnest phoenix]

You want to disable all the commands on DM or just some of them?

[static trench]

all

[earnest phoenix]

Then you can override the default on_message event, check if the guild attribute of the message is None, if so, then it's on DM

[static trench]

ok

thx

[earnest phoenix]

Don't forget to process the commands

[static trench]

yes

i wont lol

[gritty bolt]

anyone know an easy way to change a bot's status without having to hard code it every single time?

[opal plank]

you cant, you try and catch it

[opal plank]

make it dynamic

[gritty bolt]

wdym?

[opal plank]

you can call it anytime

no need to ONLY call it on the ready event

you can call it from a command if you want

[gritty bolt]

alright thanks

[opal plank]

np

you should be able to if youre logged in, if not, ask in #support

aight, time to get back to coding

cant wait to finish it

[cinder patio]

same

[frosty valve]

is it possible to make your bots ping to 69420 ms?

[quartz kindle]

a torrent client and lots of luck

or just fake it

[cinder patio]

funny number

[agile lance]

let sorted = Object.entries(db.all().find(dta => dta.ID == "bal").data).sort((a, b) => b[1] - a[1])

}```

Error: Cannot read property of ‘tag’ of undefined

Goal: Show username#tag instead of user id’s on my leaderboard

[quartz kindle]

stupid dog

[agile lance]

lol

[umbral zealot]

fetch() returns a promise, you have to resolve it.

[agile lance]

yeah i changed it to

client.users.cache.get()

[umbral zealot]

not in the above code you didn't

[agile lance]

 field2 += `Used: ${client.users.cache.get(user[0]).tag} - Balance: ${user[1]}`
}
for(let user2 of sorted2) {
field2 += `User: ${client.users.cache.get(user2[0]).tag} - Level: ${user2[1]}\n`
}```

[fierce ether]

if(member.roles.cache.some(role => {roles.includes(role.id)
 member.roles.remove(role)}))``` would check if user has one of the roles in the array if true removes it correct?

[agile lance]

thats my for loop now

still same error

[quartz kindle]

use not cached

[agile lance]

dang

[umbral zealot]

Could also be a user that left the guild, that would also break it

you'll need to await the fetch and also make sure to ignore/remove the user if they've left.

[agile lance]

its a global leaderboard not a guild leaderboard

[umbral zealot]

Ah well they might also have left all the guilds, tbh

[agile lance]

true

[umbral zealot]

either way, you have to resolve the user one way or another

[agile lance]

welp ill keep it at id’s then

[quartz kindle]

you can still fetch users even if you dont share guilds

[cinder patio]

Kinda off topic but why are you db calls sync

[agile lance]

i even tried to fetch with client.users.fetch

[umbral zealot]

if you need help to understand how to resolve promises, see https://js.evie.dev/promises for more details

[quartz kindle]

quick.db

which uses better-sqlite3

which is sync

[humble rock]

callback(new MongoError(document));

MongoError: bad auth : Authentication failed.

Why did i get this err?

[quartz kindle]

authentication failed

[tired panther]

How can the bot delete all messages in dm?

[sudden geyser]

Well are you fine getting rate limited /s

You can't do it without abusing the API.

[tired panther]

that are just 3 messages of itself

[sudden geyser]

How are you sure there aren't more?

You could just fetch the messages and delete one by one.

[tired panther]

bc I sended to me as test

[tired panther]

what is the channel lol?

[sudden geyser]

A DM is a channel.

[earnest phoenix]

Why do you need to fetch it just to delete it?

[sudden geyser]

To get the message IDs?

[earnest phoenix]

Ah, fetch the history

[cinder patio]

There's no bulkDelete for DMs afaik

[tired panther]

client.users.fetch("sjhdidewidhew").messages.fetch() ...

like this?

[sudden geyser]

Not quite.

[cinder patio]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/User?scrollTo=dmChannel

[tired panther]

client.channels.dmChannel() ?

[cinder patio]

no

I gave a link to the property that you need

User#dmChannel

[tired panther]

does not work, I am to dumb lol

[cinder patio]

No, because:

1. fetch returns a promise, you need to resolve it in order to get the User object
2. dmChannel is not a function, it's a property

[tired panther]

so just .dmChannel

[cinder patio]

Also, dmChannel can also be null, so make sure to call createDM if it's null

[tired panther]

ah okay, so , It will give me a channel id?

[earnest phoenix]

doesn't createDM lazy fetch it

[tired panther]

I know what he meant. I asked if the dmChannel gives a channel id

[earnest phoenix]

if you read the docs, it returns a DMChannel

[cinder patio]

dmChannel is an instance of the DMChannel

[tired panther]

yes then I get the id with .id

[cinder patio]

what do you need the id for?

[tired panther]

to delete one message in dm xD

thats way I need the channel to fetch the message

[cinder patio]

but you already have the channel, it's User#dmChannel

[tired panther]

.dmChannel gives null, but it exits

[cinder patio]

Yes, that's why I told you to do use createDM

[tired panther]

user.createDM()?

[cinder patio]

yes

it returns a promise

[jovial nexus]

what does it mean when the bot emits the shard ready event but without any restart and the presence is gone?

[rugged cobalt]

oh wait

if anyone saw that, it's all under control now

I hope anyway

[merry pilot]

@voyac bot

[lyric mountain]

what?

[jovial nexus]

the bot emits a shard ready event without restarting

and looses the custom status

[lyric mountain]

it'll emit once per shard if you're sharding internally

[jovial nexus]

yes but not randomly

only when it starts

[lyric mountain]

maybe it suffered a micro-disconnect

like, when discord have a seizure

put some check inside it if u want to prevend further calls of onReady

[jovial nexus]

it keeps saying Shard reconecting, shard ready

[lyric mountain]

like if (started) return;

then define started as false in a global var

[jovial nexus]

is a host issue?

[lyric mountain]

I don't think so

[jovial nexus]

code issue?

[lyric mountain]

MAYBE it can be code issue

[jovial nexus]

i have a lot of bots in the vps and only one says that

[earnest phoenix]

parden my dumb

but what fs thingy would i call to delete a dirent

nvm found it

fs.unlink(dir)

I got some trouble installing node

[earnest phoenix]

oof yea its a pain

It's literally not doing anything

In PowerShell

It has installed some stuff before

But now it's just there

Nothing is happening

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i got mine installed like a year ago

havent touched it since

just use it to ```bat
node index.js

type node -v

do you get a version ?

@earnest phoenix

Uh yes

Node has been installed

But the other things

There was an option to install more things using chocolatey or whatever it's called

[lament rock]

Whenever a client's ws connection is terminated by Discord for whatever reason or you temporarily loose connection, your client will be forced to re-identify and if applicable, resume its connection to Discord. Discord sometimes closes the ws with code 1000 or something else, I've found. One of them is mostly whenever cloudflare is undergoing maintenance. 1000 is when you fail to heartbeat within the readyevent.d.heartbeat_interval or just sometimes closes it when they feel like it.

There is nothing you can do about it if you're using a lib like Discord.js or Eris or Discord.py or whatever

If it's your own gateway implementation, then make sure you're heartbeating every readyevent.d.heartbeat_interval

[solemn leaf]

@pale vessel

[quaint wasp]

Can someone help me? My tags arnt working..

[crimson vapor]

I don't see the issue

mostly because you didn't tell me what it is

[quaint wasp]

says only 2 users.

When its with over 200.

[mellow kelp]

those are just the cached users

[crimson vapor]

because caching™️

[misty sigil]

You should reduce the guilds

[quaint wasp]

. .?

[quaint wasp]

then how else am I suppose to count them?

[misty sigil]

client.guilds.cache.reduce((a, b) => a + b.memberCount, 0) iirc

[crimson vapor]

yep thats what most people do

its off by a bit when you get members consistant

[quaint wasp]

that? iirc doesnt go in, right?

[crimson vapor]

like say im in 5 servers with my bot, ill show up 5 times

[misty sigil]

no

it doesn’t

[crimson vapor]

bro

[quaint wasp]

oh..

[quaint wasp]

good.

[misty sigil]

It does that

[crimson vapor]

client (client)
guilds (the guild manager)
cache (all of the cache of the guilds Map<ID, guild>)
reduce (function)

why would iirc be in the code

[misty sigil]

but frankly I have lost all care

[quaint wasp]

WOWOWOWOW

dang...

never knew that my boy is that popular..

[misty sigil]

11 guilds isn’t much

[quaint wasp]

ik..

[misty sigil]

and user count is a stupid metric

command usage is the real metric

[quaint wasp]

But the users..

oh

😐

made all my hope go away...

[earnest phoenix]

users don't really mean anything

80% of those users aren't going to be using your bot and there's a high chance there's dupes if you're using memberCount

[crimson vapor]

especially big servers

[misty sigil]

Like this one

[sudden geyser]

more like 99.95%

[misty sigil]

100k members in here

[quaint wasp]

it still counts that as 2 members..

[misty sigil]

how many are using my bot

[crimson vapor]

https://million.is-a.computer/files/D2ANW0oZ8Ndo5GyZ.png this is not many servers but if most people here are in 4-10 big servers, one bot will have ~10x more than before

[quaint wasp]

when I putted the same code there

[misty sigil]

like... none

[crimson vapor]

bro

wtf same

you're just stealing my stats

[quaint wasp]

none.

[misty sigil]

eh wrong

[quaint wasp]

well

like 6.

[misty sigil]

people do use my bot sometimes

[quaint wasp]

so..

[quartz kindle]

you want to count active users?

[quaint wasp]

My member count still no work.

nah

WAIT

[quartz kindle]

like people who actually use the bot?

[quaint wasp]

yes.

[quartz kindle]

or just grand total of all guilds?

[crimson vapor]

nvm you aren't stealing my stats

[misty sigil]

wdym bro

[earnest phoenix]

imagine having a bot that's for public use

[quartz kindle]

imagine publishing a private bot

[crimson vapor]

imagine not praying to Tim every day

so uncivilized

[quaint wasp]

ikr

[quartz kindle]

anyone ever used a mapping stack? like google maps-esque apis and such?

[quaint wasp]

nope..

[crimson vapor]

whats it do?

[quaint wasp]

map..

I think.

[quartz kindle]

im deciding on one, so far im leaning towards openlayers

[crimson vapor]

map what

like Map<K, V>?

[quaint wasp]

Idk

[mellow kelp]

is it a star wars reference what my eyes perceive

[crimson vapor]

it was

[quaint wasp]

come someone help me with status member count?

[mellow kelp]

so civilized

[crimson vapor]

lol

yes indeed

LOL

[quartz kindle]

fail

[quaint wasp]

it shows this tho:

[mellow kelp]

wrong ping™️

[crimson vapor]

update your status update code

lol

[quartz kindle]

just use memberCount

wait, does discord have any shortcut for replying?

[crimson vapor]

umm

probably not

[quartz kindle]

because i keep having trouble replying to the right message when the text moves too fast

[quaint wasp]

I got this for that: js client.user.setActivity(`Serving ${client.guilds.cache.size} servers, ${client.guilds.cache.reduce((a, b) => a + b.memberCount, 0)} users, and currently looking at ${client.channels.cache.size} channels!`);

[crimson vapor]

hold shift on the message tho

then you know its the right one

[quartz kindle]

i dont need to hold shift

the reply button is there even without shift

[earnest phoenix]

arrow up -> r key

[mellow kelp]

imagine deleting messages without shift 😔

[quartz kindle]

arrow up edits my last message

[quaint wasp]

same

[quaint wasp]

Never deleted a message useing shift..

[mellow kelp]

it's a joke kekw

[quartz kindle]

why this shortcut no work

[earnest phoenix]

i think the text box needs to be unfocused

[earnest phoenix]

it works only when you have the shortcut menu opened

[quartz kindle]

oh

i see

pressing tab enters selection mode, then you can navigate messages with arrows, then R to reply

[earnest phoenix]

discord claims they improved keyboard shortcuts a ton of but they still suck ass and a lot of hotkeys take up space when nobody uses them

[quaint wasp]

this is totatly related to developing.

[earnest phoenix]

nobody cares

[modest maple]

this^

[solemn leaf]

this^^

[quartz kindle]

this^^^

[solemn leaf]

this^^^^

[earnest phoenix]

there's also undocumented shortcuts for zooming in/out and if you have a non us layout, well, good luck finding your way to reset the zoom

[solemn leaf]

ctrl 0

[earnest phoenix]

doesn't work for qwertz 🤷‍♂️

[solemn leaf]

bruh

my keyboard is

qwerty

[earnest phoenix]

works with ctrl tilde for me

[quartz kindle]

wait you can disable the member list

i didnt know that lmao

[solemn leaf]

pretty surte you can also hide the channels

[modest maple]

been there

[earnest phoenix]

to be fair shortcuts are a pain in the ass because key codes vary from keyboard layouts to os'

i resorted to using libuiohook for my app in order to register shortcuts

[modest maple]

honestly the tab select message thing pisses me the fuck off

[honest perch]

@misty sigil ask question here

i cba anymore

[misty sigil]

I cba either

[honest perch]

bro

[misty sigil]

fiiiine

[honest perch]

ok lemme describe my issue

in an image

[misty sigil]

It has admin ^

[earnest phoenix]

That permission bitfield is only for that specific channel

[honest perch]

yes

[misty sigil]

doesn’t take roles into account?

[earnest phoenix]

I'm pretty sure it does

[honest perch]

it has permissions without the role

[misty sigil]

then it should theoretically have admin

have I pulled a signature twat moment or has something else died

[quaint wasp]

So how do I make commands like (prefix)prefix !? I got quick.db installed... What next?

[earnest phoenix]

Misly

[quaint wasp]

?

[honest perch]

[misty sigil]

!prefix h > store h in db as <guildID>.prefix
and check db on message

shouldnt be hard

[earnest phoenix]

Can you try message.channel.permissionOverwrites.has(message.client.user.id)

[misty sigil]

wow wtf bro

he really speaking spaghetti

[quaint wasp]

docs of... ?

[misty sigil]

quick.db

[honest perch]

@earnest phoenix

[quaint wasp]

oh

ok

[earnest phoenix]

Hmm

[misty sigil]

https://npmjs.com/quick.db

[earnest phoenix]

Try this

message.guild.me.roles.cache.some(({ id }) => message.channel.permissionOverwrites.has(id));```

[honest perch]

@misty sigil ig could check for permissions in the guild

not channel

anyway i gotta go

gn

[earnest phoenix]

The channel doesn't have permission overwrites for the client nor it's roles, that might be the issue i guess

[fierce ether]

bot is not adding to server

[rustic nova]

Known issue

Discord is probably aware already

Enjoy spinning Captcha in #memes-and-media in the meantime

[quaint wasp]

that happens really often to me as well..

[earnest phoenix]

discord fucked up something with recaptcha

[fierce ether]

yeh

keeps say

[earnest phoenix]

all you can do right now is sit, wait and possibly reconsider all of you life choices

[fierce ether]

no idea then

[earnest phoenix]

yez, discord will make his re captcha now yay!

discord has a gender now? 😳

Yes

discord was made by a boy

But also a girl

So both?

ok no off topic bye

[crimson vapor]

is jason trans?

[earnest phoenix]

Maybe it was a partnership or made by more than one person GASP

[quaint wasp]

Why is that underlined?

It closes the bigging of the cmd..

[earnest phoenix]

no, it closes off the permission check

[quaint wasp]

oh..

Alright.

I added that one//

and still same thing.

[earnest phoenix]

you now closed the function

now close the object

[quaint wasp]

oh! Shoot im so blind.. thanks!

...

Am I blind again?

[zenith terrace]

Switch members and mentions around

[odd stratus]

Because that’s the amount of members the bot has cached, not total users

This is how I do mine:
let totalUsers = await bot.shard.broadcastEval( this.guilds.cache.reduce((a, g) => a + g.memberCount, 0) );
totalUsers = totalUsers.reduce((acc, usersCount) => acc + usersCount, 0);

This wouldn’t work with “user”
You will end up with a “cannot find property size of undefined” error

Yeah but you could probably do a quick google search on how to do it for a bot without shards

Mhm

[sour summit]

yes shut up

[quartz kindle]

broadcastEval takes a string

you have to pass the code as a string, like in the eval() function

[robust blade]

does anyone know how to make a bot go from online to idle

me needs help

[rustic nova]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ClientUser?scrollTo=setActivity

[robust blade]

i meant online to idle

not the activity of the bot

[misty sigil]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ClientUser?scrollTo=setStatus

or sometjign

[jolly mortar]

how can i make my bot alot faster

[quaint wasp]

uhhh

I've been trying to create a say command for like past hour..

and cant make it..

[jolly mortar]

discord.js?

[quaint wasp]

and its not because I am a dombass.

yes.

discord.js

[jolly mortar]

i have one lemmi get it

[mellow kelp]

spoonfeed alert

k bye

[quaint wasp]

bra

😐

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[quaint wasp]

i

alr. He doesnt have the command..

so I need help

and u dont need to spoon feed me..

[earnest phoenix]

Does anyone know how to make a bot on mobile

[misty sigil]

just ask the question

[quaint wasp]

uh.... Herocu?

[earnest phoenix]

Try client.shard

[quaint wasp]

try this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDeqLcklCMc

[earnest phoenix]

I've been trying to make a bot on mobile for the past 10 hours

[quaint wasp]

OOF.

[earnest phoenix]

get a development machine

ARM devices aren't powerful enough to be one

except m1s

those are witchery

[misty sigil]

m1s are weird

cool

but weird

[earnest phoenix]

How long does it take to even make a bot
@earnest phoenix
Depends on what you are intending to make

[opal plank]

i cannot fucking believe i wrote this

@quartz kindle come check THIS out

[tulip wave]

Wtf

[mellow kelp]

what the

[tulip wave]

How many awaits and asyncs do you need

[mellow kelp]

[opal plank]

as many as i can fit

imagine not waiting for promises

smh

[tulip wave]

Imagine having promises

[quaint wasp]

why it no work?

[earnest phoenix]

Use backticks?

[opal plank]

ah, i see you run js on node 8

or ES5

[glossy spoke]

you must use `` instead of "" or '' to make ${} work

[tulip wave]

I just chuck raw data around

[mellow kelp]

nah he probably missed the backticks

[quaint wasp]

oh

[tulip wave]

[mellow kelp]

kekw

[opal plank]

i legit cannot believe i actually wrote that

[tulip wave]

U should see some of my crappy code

[opal plank]

i dont even think a d.js noob would do this

[earnest phoenix]

Can confirm

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[tulip wave]

Tbh when I first started programming I had no clue how to async and await

Or what it did

[tulip wave]

I just knew where I had to use it

[mellow kelp]

i need to find that book

[tulip wave]

Now I'm comf with a lot of js shit

[mellow kelp]

same

[opal plank]

just the fact that both of us want to read it already answers the question

[mellow kelp]

true

[quartz kindle]

i was well a couple years into js and still didnt know how async/await worked

[tulip wave]

I'm about 2 years into js properly

[opal plank]

i think im 7 months into js

[mellow kelp]

im like

10 months into js

[tulip wave]

I'm also a year into java

Very basic java but still

[quartz kindle]

im about 3 years into the third wave

my first wave of js was like 10 years ago

lmao

[blissful coral]

Yeah no

That is literally creating a application

[tulip wave]

I'm moving Into c++ next year in college

[quartz kindle]

nice

[blissful coral]

And he is literally wasting 5 minutes of it to make the oauth link

[opal plank]

actually, a year

this is the latest log i could find

[tulip wave]

I'm still surprised I was able to keep my bots memory down to like 300-400 mb on full fat d.js

With 3.4k servers

[glossy spoke]

lol

[quaint wasp]

oh...

[tulip wave]

Recently moved to Eris and I'm down to 300 at 3.7k

[glossy spoke]

400mb for a bot on 3.4k servers

that's apparently impossible but you already did it lmao

• Ddossed Twitch hard
  Could put this on your resume

[glossy spoke]

why would someone refuse to use an embed builder?

[opal plank]

cuz its shit

n.tag embder builder bad

[sudden geyser]

They like using the key-value way

[tulip wave]

The shits in d.js part I can vibe with that

[opal plank]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/272764566411149314/748980037402886194/unknown.png

[tulip wave]

Once I moved to Eris I just seen the light

[opal plank]

bloated piece of garbage

[glossy spoke]

lmao

[tulip wave]

I need to improve my embed builder

[glossy spoke]

i still laugh when i remember these people that puts their bot's code inside their bot's page description xD

[tulip wave]

It's currently like the d.js embed builder

[glossy spoke]

is that a way to show the size of your code?

lmao

[opal plank]

@tulip wave

3gb

for 1600 server

its insane

no sane lib would ever do this

it fucking saves EVERY EDIT YOU MAKE

[glossy spoke]

uh

did you think that probably would crash the db?

[tulip wave]

HOW IS IT AT 3GB

[opal plank]

I KNOW RIGHT!

[tulip wave]

EVEN FOR D.JS THATS HIGH

[opal plank]

my stuff is only using 312MB from my profiler, the rest is all D.JS CACHING SHIT

[glossy spoke]

lmao

[tulip wave]

I never had d.js cache that much

[sharp thicket]

Hi

[tulip wave]

How many users?

[opal plank]

400k basically

yeah, click me

[sharp thicket]

Omg you still have that same pfp-

[tulip wave]

Bitch at 600k I was at 350-400mb

[opal plank]

yes and i aint changing

[sharp thicket]

Lol

[opal plank]

this is not normal at all, but i just ported my stuff and would you look at that

[tulip wave]

I'm crying just thinking about it

Use d.js-light or Eris

[opal plank]

sane bot

same*

[tulip wave]

Oof

[opal plank]

only difference is the library

fuck d.js

literally

fuck d.js

[blissful coral]

d.js-light

kek

[sharp thicket]

Lel

Tim

[opal plank]

fuck that whole thing

[opal plank]

im rewriting everything

[sharp thicket]

Gg!

[blissful coral]

Just don't use a lib

lul

[tulip wave]

This is on eris

[opal plank]

i cache a shit ton more stuff btw

[sharp thicket]

Akairo is a good one

[opal plank]

i got custom users

and a ton of other shit cached, such as buffers

and images

[sharp thicket]

Oh god

For 400k guilds that must be a lot of cache

[tulip wave]

Explains a lot

[opal plank]

indeed, though im at 400k users, not guilds

[tulip wave]

U have bad memory management

[sharp thicket]

Oh

[tulip wave]

[sharp thicket]

Lol

Rip

[opal plank]

also my bot is cache full

messages, guilds, updates, presences, reactions

[tulip wave]

I cache prefixes and that's about it

[opal plank]

to be holding at 320 is quite good

nah, im caching everything

i got a bit of ram

just a bit

[tulip wave]

I got 30 Gigs dedicated to my bot

And I'm using not even 10%

[opal plank]

i got.... erm.... a couple

[tulip wave]

But still 3gb

Yikes

It hurts me thinking about it

[opal plank]

[opal plank]

thats precisely why im porting all this out of d.js

fuck that

[tulip wave]

Kekw

What u using insted of d.js

[opal plank]

detritus

[tulip wave]

Never heard of that one

[opal plank]

its a pure Ts lib

[tulip wave]

Ah

[opal plank]

not gonna bother with anything else that has .js in the name

[tulip wave]

lowkey was gonna make a pure TS lib myself cuz I'm bored

[opal plank]

if you bored, why not work on dossing Facebook or Instagram this time?

i already took care of Twitch

[tulip wave]

Lmao

[earnest phoenix]

lol wtf

[tulip wave]

Facebook ain't worth my time

[opal plank]

never again am i messing with twitch

its the worst api i have ever touched

shit docs with poorly written and sometimes plain wrong shit

api keys randomly resetting

its a whole mess all around

[earnest phoenix]

haha

[opal plank]

and thats not even the tip of the iceberg

[earnest phoenix]

just watching and laughing alone

[opal plank]

twitch is not meant for bots

[earnest phoenix]

interesting...

[opal plank]

you want a bot for 5-10 servers? sure, go ahead

the moment you get into 30 ish channels

you fucked

[tulip wave]

Kekw

[earnest phoenix]

hm

[tulip wave]

What way fucked

[opal plank]

like, twitch is gonna bend you over and **** you like a lil ***

[lyric mountain]

1 channel in twitch equals to 1000 servers on discord

Performance-wise

[opal plank]

its not even performance related

it simply doesnt hold

none of the twitch libraries out there are meant for scaling

[tulip wave]

I'm.not surprised tbh

[earnest phoenix]

hmmmmmmm

[opal plank]

they'll just yell at you to use kubernetes

thats it

which wont be as simple of a task

hence why i made my own lib

[lyric mountain]

Actually, what's a kubernete?

[opal plank]

that shit was the worst experience of my life(dealing with their API), the lib was fun to make

clustering and shit, promisifying IPC pipelines

[lyric mountain]

Oh

[opal plank]

it was a fun thing to play around with

[opal plank]

kubernetes is a clustering module, to put it simply

https://kubernetes.io/

[tulip wave]

I'm getting into clustering on nodejs

[opal plank]

i did that with the twitch

thats how i ended up

well..

[tulip wave]

I'm gonna try make a Discord lib that supports clustering out of the box

And not d.js cluster per shard shit

Gonna yeet 10+ shards into one cluster

[opal plank]

@tulip wave https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/688416503120396299/768137828986912798/unknown.png

[tulip wave]

Oh god

[opal plank]

lets just say some dumb fuck made 2 configs very similarly named, one being slaveMax and SlaveTop

[final lava]

What in the hell

[opal plank]

one of them in charge of how many channels each shard would hold and one would be how many it should spawn on startup

thanks to some dumbfuck who made those configs

[quartz kindle]

anyone said ram? :^)

[tulip wave]

[opal plank]

||(the dumbfuck was me btw, if it wasnt clear)||

[quaint wasp]

lol

[tulip wave]

Oh no the 2nd ram monster is here

[quartz kindle]

im the reverse ram monster

[tulip wave]

[opal plank]

tim poops ram for you

[tulip wave]

You give us our ram back

[opal plank]

tim is the golden goose of ram

[tulip wave]

Tim how does one stop discord from eating ram

[quartz kindle]

by shouting at it

[opal plank]

dont use discord

problem solved

[tulip wave]

Lol

[opal plank]

iirc there was an IRC client for discord

[glossy spoke]

omg it solved all my problems related to ram

[opal plank]

lul

[quartz kindle]

imagine if discord allowed third party clients

[glossy spoke]

the real enemy here is Chrome

[lyric mountain]

Wasn't someone here making a Termcord?

[tulip wave]

Imagine

[glossy spoke]

Chrome eats the 90% of your ram once you open it

[opal plank]

nono, not a third party client, im fairly certain there was an actual app that you could use discord into

well, technically a third party app

but not a client mod

a full blown app that was IRC based using discord

[lyric mountain]

Termcord is not a client mod

[opal plank]

you just get messages

[quartz kindle]

ye, a third party client

[opal plank]

[opal plank]

i admited my mistake okay?

[lyric mountain]

Mkay

[tulip wave]

Pretty sure discord doesn't want 3rd party clients

[opal plank]

just use postman to talk, there, no more ram issues

[solemn latch]

hi mom apparently 👀

[tulip wave]

But how do you get messages in postman

[lyric mountain]

Nah, better use https://apitester.com

[tulip wave]

Hi son

[lyric mountain]

Best site evur

[opal plank]

no clue, you'd need a websocket connection

[quartz kindle]

apitester ips were all blocked

[opal plank]

and keepalive

[lyric mountain]

Meh

[opal plank]

imagine not using reqbin

[quartz kindle]

at least last time i tried using apitester on discord it gave me forbidden

[opal plank]

plebs

[tulip wave]

Imagine testing

[opal plank]

https://reqbin.com/

imagine not using reqbin

[tulip wave]

I make first then worry about testing

[quartz kindle]

same

reqbin also gave me forbidden

[opal plank]

oh rip

[lyric mountain]

Forbidden fruit

[tulip wave]

F

[opal plank]

im amazed i didnt get banned from twitch tbh

[lyric mountain]

Use telnet

[quartz kindle]

you know nasa uses telnet

[tulip wave]

I think in gonna make #development my home channel, stay away from all the meanies here

[opal plank]

i literally joined around 100k streams within 20 seconds with a normal ratelimit(25 joins every 10 seconds)

[quartz kindle]

and they offer public apis via telnet

and email

[lyric mountain]

Telnet is nice and all

Just hard to understand

[quartz kindle]

imagine building an email-based api

[lyric mountain]

280000 ping

[tulip wave]

Imagine using telnet

[opal plank]

imagine imagining

[quartz kindle]

welcome to nasa/jpl

[lyric mountain]

Imagine dragons

[tulip wave]

Here's an idea. Make an API based on mailman

2day ping at best

[lyric mountain]

So webhooks?

[tulip wave]

No physical mail men

Hand delivered packets

[quartz kindle]

compared to nasa's apis, even that shitty sattelite tracking api that uses cookies for auth and urls like /key/value/key/value is better

lmao

[opal plank]

can i mail Discord with my token asking for a gateway indentify?

[tulip wave]

[lyric mountain]

Tim, why do you know so much about nasa satellites?

[tulip wave]

Yes

[opal plank]

cmon that was star worthy

[tulip wave]

No star for you today

[quartz kindle]

because i use it

well partially

[opal plank]

so hard to get starred nowadays

[quartz kindle]

the telnet api is horrendous, i didnt understand shit

[glossy spoke]

i ever knew that
YOU WORK FOR THE NASA

[lyric mountain]

Tim be spying you all the whole time

[tulip wave]

Tim is nasa

[quartz kindle]

but i use a library that was build from the email api

[opal plank]

tim messaging from the moon

[lyric mountain]

Tim doesn't use the cloud

He uses the moon

[quartz kindle]

no im not related to nasa lol

[lyric mountain]

Has more space

[grizzled raven]

not related?

like

step worker

[glossy spoke]

lmao

[quartz kindle]

i work with astrology and astronomy, and nasa/jpl has the best calculations getting the coordinates of planets n shit

but their shit is impossible to use

[lyric mountain]

You can also use russian satellites u knoe

[glossy spoke]

So you work for the CIA

[lyric mountain]

But well

Russian

[tulip wave]

I recently made a rich presence thing and everyone just asked why u didn't use premid or discord-RPC

[glossy spoke]

Tim isn't a worker from the nasa, he works for the CIA

[grizzled raven]

i recently made a rich presence thing and no one said anything

[tulip wave]

Boredom is fun

[grizzled raven]

[tulip wave]

That's cuz it just a noob

Jk ily

[quartz kindle]

logs into your pc and turns your webcam on

[grizzled raven]

[lyric mountain]

TIM means Telnet Investigator Man

[quartz kindle]

ew

[tulip wave]

Jokes in you I don't have a webcam

[grizzled raven]

the planet coordinates change irl when tim makes a calculation error

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[tulip wave]

Tim accidentally send us into the sun

[lyric mountain]

Did u hear about millennium bug?

It was when Tim took a break from work

[tulip wave]

Fun bug

[quartz kindle]

yes my bad

[glossy spoke]

i got it blocked with an objet, i'm involved in illegal things

[grizzled raven]

chrome updates javascript when tim makes a syntax error

[tulip wave]

Single handedly broke the world

[glossy spoke]

lmao

[quartz kindle]

yes i know

;^)

[glossy spoke]

So, what's my IP adress?

[tulip wave]

I need more project ideas

[quartz kindle]

127.0.0.1

[lyric mountain]

The queen is only immortal because tim forgot to add a break on the loop

[glossy spoke]

omg i'll be hacked soon guys

[tulip wave]

Jokes on you again my IP is 127.0.0.2

[quartz kindle]

hax

[lyric mountain]

Imagine having ip 255.255.255.255

[glossy spoke]

i'll call the cybernetic police

[tulip wave]

Imagine having an ipv6 address that's just dead

[glossy spoke]

That's possible, you can have an IP with letters too

[jolly mortar]

i dont know what i left out but it is spamming, the code is ```client.on("message", message => {
if (message.content.startsWith(".purge")) {
let args = message.content.split(" ");
if (message.member.hasPermission("MANAGE_MESSAGES")) {
let clear = args[1];
if (!clear)
return message.channel
.send(<a:NotApproved:806602509870301214 | \Incorrect usage of command you need to provide an amount of messages to Clear.`
Example: `.purge 50` `);
if (isNaN(clear))
return message.channel.send(
":NotApproved: | Please Put a Valid Number to Clear messages."
);
if (clear > 100)
return message.channel.send(
":NotApproved: | I can't Clear more than 100 messages."
);
if (clear < 1)
return message.channel.send(
":NotApproved: | You cannot Clear less than 1 message."
);

  message.channel.bulkDelete(clear);
  message.channel
    .send(
      `:checkmark2: | \`Succesfully cleared ${clear} messages! | If purge fails please make sure I have MANAGE_MESSAGES to make the purge seccessful.\` `
    )
    .then(message => message.delete({ timeout: 10000 }));
} else {
  message.reply("You dont have perms!");
}

}
});```

[tulip wave]

dead*8

[lyric mountain]

Ip with letters?

Only in ipv6 right?

[jolly mortar]

my purge command spams after it deleted the messages

[tulip wave]

Ipv6 is hexadecimal

[glossy spoke]

i mean hidding your IP to show a different one with letters

[lyric mountain]

Ah, that

[glossy spoke]

ya

[lyric mountain]

Ipv6 is fucksadecimal

[glossy spoke]

lol

today i tried to get down a web page

[tulip wave]

I can convert hex to binary and hex to decimal in my head

[glossy spoke]

i bypassed the proxy

[quartz kindle]

ipv6 is a clusterfuck

[tulip wave]

Thanks College

[quartz kindle]

ipv4 is so nice and easy to understand

nobody understands ipv6

[mellow kelp]

ipv6 is the jsfuck of ips

[tulip wave]

True but ipv6 makes getting around IP rateLimits go brrrr

[lyric mountain]

Imagine debugging an ipv6 network

[mellow kelp]

oh dear god

[lyric mountain]

Gl typing that ip

[glossy spoke]

or trying to get info from that ip

uh

[lyric mountain]

ping idunnowhatstheiphalp

[glossy spoke]

lmao

[tulip wave]

Honestly I don't find ipv6 hard to understand

[lyric mountain]

The issue is that it's large

Very large

[tulip wave]

That's supposed to be the upside to it

[glossy spoke]

like my ||dick|| lmao

[tulip wave]

Iirc we have ran out of ipv4 ips

[lyric mountain]

Why couldn't they use regular ipv4 but with hex?

Like, expand to hex instead of 256

[tulip wave]

Not that easy

You'd need mass router firmware updates

[lyric mountain]

Meh

[tulip wave]

Same with switches

[quartz kindle]

dont you already need that with ipv6

[glossy spoke]

Guys

[lyric mountain]

Also where's ipv5?

[quartz kindle]

sitting in a tree with discord api v7

[glossy spoke]

I think i attacked the wrong IP 😦

[quartz kindle]

k i s s i n g

[tulip wave]

No you need mass infrastructure updates there

[mellow kelp]

remember how github survived the biggest DDoS attack in history

what an absolute unit

[lyric mountain]

It git gud
