[earnest phoenix]

got an error:

client.run("MY TOKEN") ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax PS D:\bots>

[halcyon linden]

:)

[opal plank]

show full error

[halcyon linden]

Thank u

[opal plank]

np

[earnest phoenix]

ITS FULL ERROR

[opal plank]

show whats around that code then

[glossy spoke]

is that python?

[earnest phoenix]

ok

ya

🥺

[earnest phoenix]

.

@opal plank

[glossy spoke]

idk about discord.py but ic you can't literally write "MY TOKEN" inside the client.run

[opal plank]

i assume he just removed it

[glossy spoke]

oh

[opal plank]

so he wouldnt leak it here

[glossy spoke]

xD

[earnest phoenix]

SEE

i removed as you were not coming

@opal plank

😆

[opal plank]

the issue is that i dont use py, so i dont really know whats wrong syntax wise in ur code

[earnest phoenix]

oh

[south bay]

hi guys how can i do my bot 7/24

[earnest phoenix]

vps

[icy skiff]

U didnt close brackets

[opal plank]

buy a VPS

[icy skiff]

Saumil

[south bay]

where can i find free?

[compact prairie]

Question

In Discord.js how would you make a message that deletes and resends every 15 minutes?

[earnest phoenix]

i have

ya

ya

ty

[icy skiff]

No u havent

Rip

[earnest phoenix]

seen it

[opal plank]

most free VPS are kinda shit, but you could try repl or glitch

[icy skiff]

Np

[earnest phoenix]

lol

[south bay]

i have glitch but i cant do 7/24

[glossy spoke]

you'll never find a decent free vps

[icy skiff]

Sometimes python says the error in on line x but its actually on the one above

[compact prairie]

is it possible?

[opal plank]

auotmation is bad, but you can do a setTimeout(), such high time shouldnt be too bad

[compact prairie]

yeah but how would it resend

[opal plank]

thats why i siad free vps are shit, they dont work all the time. its best to buy one for as cheap as 5 bucks a month

[south bay]

5 dolarrs in month

right?

[opal plank]

setTimeout(
client.channel.fetch(id)
channel.messages.fetch(message)
message.delete()
channel.send(message)
)
something along those lines, that should give u a rough idea

[compact prairie]

ty

[opal plank]

stuff like Digital Ocean or some other vps are super cheap, yes

[glossy spoke]

Also, you can try repl or glitch and use UptimeRobot to maintain your bot 24/7 for free

[opal plank]

@quartz kindle prob has some nice vps, i recall him using a nice and cheap VPS

[zenith terrace]

glitch dont do ping services anymore

[tardy hornet]

erwin is helping to everything that breathe in this channel @opal plank

[opal plank]

heheh

[crimson vapor]

tim uses galaxygate 2usd iirc

I can tell you he only has 1 vcore and im pretty sure he uses galaxy gate

[opal plank]

that sounds about right

[zenith terrace]

#development message

whoops

I replied

xD

[earnest phoenix]

.

[opal plank]

imagine pinging @quartz kindle multiple times, smh

[twilit pecan]

Hi, i want to know how can i get just the Twitch connection username
Picking just the info underlined by yellow

[crimson vapor]

yeah its not like @quartz kindle is idle or uses browser instead of app

[zenith terrace]

yea imagine @quartz kindle getting pinged

[opal plank]

you cant, thats only able to fetched by a user's account

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[crimson vapor]

Tim probably logs on with 10 pings in this channel alone

am I right tim?

[earnest phoenix]

@quartz kindle sorry for ping but how you got notable member role

[crimson vapor]

bro

[opal plank]

actually, i just had a brilliant idea

[crimson vapor]

what about Erwin

[opal plank]

tim, you still there?

[earnest phoenix]

imagine @quartz kindle being happy by our pings

[quartz kindle]

ye

[opal plank]

heres the question

[zenith terrace]

no he ded

[earnest phoenix]

lol

[crimson vapor]

you ever gonna compile the list of cheap VPSs tim?

[opal plank]

what happens if you try to login in browser with a bot token?

[twilit pecan]

Oh Erwin, im sorry, i was think bot can get it cause is a public info in your profile

[opal plank]

can you even render/login with one?

[twilit pecan]

But ok

[earnest phoenix]

!?!?

[twilit pecan]

Thank you, i think

[opal plank]

np

[quartz kindle]

you could, not sure if you still can

i dont wanna try because its likely instant ban

[opal plank]

lmao true

you wouldnt recieve the data anyway most likely from the users

cuz gateway

[quartz kindle]

the list i wanted to make would require buying them or people who actually have them to participate

[opal plank]

i was wondering if you could bypass it by scraping the browser version

[quartz kindle]

so idk

[opal plank]

but i forgot you dont even get the info

[crimson vapor]

good point

[earnest phoenix]

@earnest phoenix

hi

[crimson vapor]

#development message was a ghost ping Tim

[opal plank]

^^

[earnest phoenix]

lol

[opal plank]

imagine ghost pinging

[crimson vapor]

I do it on accident often tbh

[earnest phoenix]

@quartz kindle sorry ^^) TvT

[crimson vapor]

like ill go to ping someone and a new username will come up and fuck everything up

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[crimson vapor]

discord caching

[urban surge]

How do I get my bot to restart automatically?

[opal plank]

pm2

and im fairly certain we told you before

[south bay]

aaaahhhhhh
I will cry all VPS's too expensive

😢

[opal plank]

$5

and we said, tim uses galaxy gate

for $2

[earnest phoenix]

how you have status like that ?
do only bot developer can do that ?

[opal plank]

no, thats using Discord's SDK

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[opal plank]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/game-sdk/sdk-starter-guide

[south bay]

5dollar is 35,12 in my country turkey :c

[opal plank]

tim's is $2

galaxygate

[south bay]

14,05

:C

[opal plank]

you can host it yourself too

just cant turn off your computer

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[south bay]

i do it but its sometimes close .d

[quartz kindle]

2.75 actually

if you have a credit card or a debit card, use google f1-micro, its free, you only pay for the excess bandwidth, which will be like a few cents per month

[south bay]

in turkey 1 dolar is=7,02

[quartz kindle]

if you absolutely cannot pay and have no cards, your best option would be repl.it i guess

[south bay]

😤

[mossy reef]

hiiiiiiiiii

[crimson vapor]

if you are a student, can't you get some repl.it plan that gives longer hosting?

[mossy reef]

im new

[mossy reef]

im not a student

[compact prairie]

can someone give me an example

[crimson vapor]

#development message

[pale vessel]

You need to use OAuth to get the user's connections

[unkempt ocean]

does setTimeout works that way?

[compact prairie]

dont work

[pale vessel]

no

pseudocode

[unkempt ocean]

You should use setInterval instead of setTimeout ig

[crimson vapor]

gotta translate to js @compact prairie

[compact prairie]

what

[twilit pecan]

Ok, i use the oAuth2 page on Discord Dev?

[pale vessel]

Yes, you can't just get it directly from your bot

You need the user's consent

[twilit pecan]

And i redirect for /users/@me/connections ?

[pale vessel]

Yes, make sure you have the connections scope

[twilit pecan]

In the start of url i use what?

discord.com?

[pale vessel]

Have a read on https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/oauth2

[twilit pecan]

Oh

Thank you

[pale vessel]

It's a little complicated if you never worked with OAuth before

[twilit pecan]

Ya

I'll never

[pale vessel]

but that's the only way

[south bay]

guys, do I need a VPS for my bot to be 24/7? So there are no different free things

[pale vessel]

Yes

[earnest phoenix]

pretty much yes

[glossy spoke]

Yes, there is (for example) UptimeRobot to maintain it 24/7 on repl or glitch

[pale vessel]

.....ok

[crimson vapor]

its against glitch tos to do that

so its really not suggested

[compact prairie]

is there a way to make this repeat?

        message.channel.send(embed).then(async m => {
            await m.delete({timeout: 5000})
            await message.channel.send(embed)
        })```

[south bay]

oh i do the UptimeRobot but its down everytime .c

[crimson vapor]

setInterval @compact prairie

[unkempt ocean]

yep, you shouldn't uptime your glitch project

[vocal sluice]

i think you can get a free year on aws

[glossy spoke]

Are you listening to the UptimeRobot's requests?

[south bay]

yes

[south bay]

what the site name aws?

[compact prairie]

how do you set a time

[unkempt ocean]

use setInterval Function

[glossy spoke]

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.send('Toy vivo');
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Barnie iniciado.');
});

[vocal sluice]

amazon web services

[south bay]

oh ok sir ty

[compact prairie]

like setinterval has a callback

[crimson vapor]

setInterval(function, time in ms)

[south bay]

is it need my card number or anything of my card?

[pale vessel]

Yes

[vocal sluice]

believe so but you can just cancel after the trial ends

[compact prairie]

i dont get setInterval @crimson vapor

[crimson vapor]

https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_setinterval.asp

[compact prairie]

oh

[quartz kindle]

both google and amazon offer a free vps for 12 months

but you do need a card to create an account

additionally, google has a vps called "f1-micro" which is still free after the 12 months expire

[compact prairie]

now its saying channel isnt defined

run: async function(client, message) {
        setInterval(function(client, message){
            const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
                .setTitle('hi')
                .setDescription('hey')
            message.channel.send(embed).then(m => m.delete({timeout: 5000}))
        }, 5000);
    }```

[pale vessel]

define it

[compact prairie]

how

[pale vessel]

channel or message.channel?

[compact prairie]

message.channel

[pale vessel]

are you sure you're showing the correct portion of the code

oh

make sure you provide the correct params

[compact prairie]

yeah client, message

do i need args

[vocal sluice]

yes

i think

[quartz kindle]

its not channel that is undefined

[compact prairie]

that dont make a difference

[quartz kindle]

its "cannot read property channel OF undefined"

[compact prairie]

C:\Users\KPC\Desktop\Discord Bots\JavaScript\NitroBot\commands\information\ey.js:18
message.channel.send(embed).then(m => m.delete({timeout: 5000}))
^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'channel' of undefined
at Timeout._onTimeout (C:\Users\KPC\Desktop\Discord Bots\JavaScript\NitroBot\commands\information\ey.js:18:21)
at listOnTimeout (internal/timers.js:554:17)
at processTimers (internal/timers.js:497:7)

[quartz kindle]

meaning whatever is BEFORE channel is what is undefined

[pale vessel]

check your handler ig

[quartz kindle]

not channel itself

[compact prairie]

what

oh

but idk whats undefined

[quartz kindle]

what is before channel?

[compact prairie]

        setInterval(function(client, message, args){
            const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
                .setTitle('hi')
                .setDescription('hey')
            message.channel.send(embed).then(m => m.delete({timeout: 5000}))
        }, 5000);```

message

but

[quartz kindle]

then message is undefined

[compact prairie]

no its not

setInterval(function(client, message, args){

[quartz kindle]

it is

[compact prairie]

^^^^^^^

how

[quartz kindle]

because setInterval doesnt give you any parameters

[compact prairie]

how do i define it

[quartz kindle]

when you do setInterval((abc) => {})

that means you want to GET abc from the interval

but the interval doesnt give any values

[compact prairie]

oh

[quartz kindle]

so you get undefined

[compact prairie]

how do i define it

[quartz kindle]

you want to use the message that already exists outside the interval

so just dont define any arguments in the interval itself

[compact prairie]

plus wouldnt it be easier to just tell me that message is undefined than telling me the thing brfore channel is

🤦

[quartz kindle]

setInterval(() => {})
^ nothing here

[compact prairie]

k

[quartz kindle]

thats how javascript works

[compact prairie]

ik

[quartz kindle]

it doesnt have anything against undefined values, you can use undefined values anywhere you want

[compact prairie]

but its annoying

[quartz kindle]

but you cant access something else from an undefined, thats why

[compact prairie]

oh

[quartz kindle]

btw, i hope you dont run that command more than once in the same channel

[scarlet stratus]

is it against the tos to write anouncements like bot updates over the bot. with a command that is saved over a specifig users id?

[earnest phoenix]

if your user opted in to receive announcements, no

[opal plank]

autoposting message without users concent is probably a bad idea. i recommend either making a command !news, setting an opt-in feature so people can recieve stuff, or instead have an ANnouncements channel where people can subscribe on your support server

[earnest phoenix]

otherwise it would be api abuse / api spam

^^

[scarlet stratus]

i ment like for bot updates use anounce setup and then the bot will make a channel extra for it

[opal plank]

make it opt-in, not opt-out, and it should be fine

[scarlet stratus]

ok thanks for your time 😄

[opal plank]

np

[compact prairie]

is there a way to check the amount of messages in teh bot's cache

[cinder patio]

Use the reduce method on the client.channels.cache collection

[compact prairie]

discord.js lib

what

[cinder patio]

make sure to filter out voice channels

[compact prairie]

no messages

[cinder patio]

yes... you can get the all the messages this way, channel.messages.cache.size

[compact prairie]

client.channel.messages.cache.size

[cinder patio]

no

[compact prairie]

how do you define channel

[cinder patio]

you run the code inside the reduce callback function

[compact prairie]

well yeah

but how would you define it

[cinder patio]

it's the second parameter of the callback function

[compact prairie]

channel?

really

[cinder patio]

yes

[compact prairie]

run: async function(client, channel, message, args) {```

like that

[cinder patio]

no... not at all

inside the reduce callback function.

channels.reduce((accumulator, channel) => /* You have access to channel */, 0);

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

[compact prairie]

oh okay ty!

[cinder patio]

Note that just by putting the code I gave you inside the callback function won't give you the total amount of messages

You have to add the amount of messages of the current channel with the accumulator. You also have to check if the channel is a voice channel, and in that case you should add 0

[quartz kindle]

basically, there is no total number for all channels, but each channel has its own messages

so you need to go through all channels and count the messages for each channel

the reduce function is basically a simplified way to do this ```js
let total = 0;
for(let channel of client.channels.cache) {
total += channel.messages.cache.size;
}

[cinder patio]

but is it faster

[quartz kindle]

x doubt

[pale vessel]

benchmark time

[quartz kindle]

on it

[pale vessel]

just another day in #development

[mellow kelp]

ah yes

[earnest phoenix]

Ah no

[mellow kelp]

fighting over code because one solution is 0.0001ms faster than the other

[earnest phoenix]

[mellow kelp]

typical #development stuff

[pale vessel]

fax

"my code is better!"

"i have to flex my one liner!"

[earnest phoenix]

MY CODES BETTER.

[cinder patio]

not fighting I'm just curious if the if one is fatser

[earnest phoenix]

My. Code. Is. Better!

[quartz kindle]

interesting

reduce is twice as fast

at least for arrays

[mellow kelp]

wait what

gasp

[cinder patio]

damn

[mellow kelp]

did i miss the day where array methods were made faster than for loops

[quartz kindle]

reduce = 450ms

for of = 3000ms

for = 1000ms

[cinder patio]

discord.js uses a for loop internally for reduce

[quartz kindle]

forEach = 3000ms

[cinder patio]

so in the case of collections, a regular for loop is probably a little faster than Collection#reduce

[quartz kindle]

possibly

[cinder patio]

Collection#reduce also does a bunch of checks to check if the collection is empty etc

[quartz kindle]

collections are bloatware

change my mind

[cinder patio]

I won't cause I agree

[earnest phoenix]

Hey Can Anyone please give me the link to top.gg docs ?

[quartz kindle]

top.gg/api/docs

[summer torrent]

no

[pale vessel]

changed

docs.top.gg

[summer torrent]

https://docs.top.gg

[earnest phoenix]

TYSM

[restive furnace]

whats that splash image on the docs lol

[cinder patio]

Hmmmm...

a lot of this seems unnecessary

[earnest phoenix]

it needs to be dumb-proof

[quartz kindle]

:o

[earnest phoenix]

it's a language feature

how can i retrieve The user's name who voted from on_dbl_vote

from that data parameter

[restive furnace]

lib?

[earnest phoenix]

python

dblpy

[restive furnace]

discord.py should have something like client.get_user(id_here)

[earnest phoenix]

yes

fetch_user

[restive furnace]

well why not use that?

[earnest phoenix]

But How can i Pass The ID There

[restive furnace]

data.id?

[earnest phoenix]

I Dont Know How to retrieve anything from That Data

data['user']

oh

Thx

you need to cast it as int though if you use get_user

Can it be used as a @client.event ?

[restive furnace]

you can use print(data) to view the data structure too

[earnest phoenix]

the on_dbl_vote? Sure

Yes

on_dbl_vote

[earnest phoenix]

oh

bot.dispatch will dispatch the event to bot's attr and external listeners

[cinder patio]

Yeah but why check if initial value is undefined and run a different loop based on that?

let accumulator = initialValue;
if (!this.size && typeof accumulator === "undefined") // Reduce of empty collection with no initial value...
for (const [key, value] of this) accumulator = fn(accumulator, val, key, this);
return accumulator;

Doesn't this do the same thing, except it's more readable and simpler

[earnest phoenix]

data['user']

I Can Call It As A Normal client.event?

pls tell

#development message

Yes

[shrewd sparrow]

can you put a link for another discord bot site (for voting) in my bot?

[earnest phoenix]

on_dbl_vote

I wasn't only asking that, I also gave an answer.

didnt understand

[shrewd sparrow]

err

[earnest phoenix]

What did you not understand with the word "sure"

😅

oh that way

[pale vessel]

😅

[earnest phoenix]

😅

Thx For Help

But I Will need to pass that Token and other things

Yes, when instantiating the DBLClient object.

So WHere to pass that?

DO I Have to make Some cog thing?

not necessary

So In The event only ?

Hey how to make a leaderboard?

[cinder patio]

leaderboard for what?

[earnest phoenix]

It's pointless if you only setup the listener but not the webhook. Nothing is gonna fire the event itself.

Users account balance

[crimson vapor]

ty for reminding me that I need to make a command

[gilded olive]

Most likely leveling, currency, etc

[earnest phoenix]

Yes

[earnest phoenix]

Users cash balance

I Dont Know About Webhooks And dblpy events

[crimson vapor]

are you familiar with mongoose? @cinder patio

[earnest phoenix]

So I Came to ask here

[cinder patio]

Only mongodb

[crimson vapor]

ah

nvm then

ty anyway

[earnest phoenix]

@client.event
async def on_dbl_vote(data):
print(data)

[crimson vapor]

here is a big brain question, if someone does a leaderboard command, should you cache all of the responses from the db?

[earnest phoenix]

How Can I Connect that webhooks

[crimson vapor]

or no

[cinder patio]

mmm I wouldn't

[earnest phoenix]

Hey tell me how to create a leader board

Pls

[cinder patio]

Sort the users based on their balance, get the first X, done

Sorting depends on which database you're using

[earnest phoenix]

quick.db

[cinder patio]

then you'll have to fetch all users in the database, another reason quick.db is garbage

[earnest phoenix]

how to fetch?

[cinder patio]

sorry, anyways yeah, get all users, use Array#sort to sort em, get the first X elements with slice

[earnest phoenix]

If you're planning to set it up on your main file, you can instantiate the DBLClient after the discord client instantiation.

client = discord.Client(...)                    # or its subclasses
dbl_client = DBLClient(client, dbl_token, ...)  # read the documentation so that you know what to pass.

@client.event
async def on_dbl_vote(data):
    # do something with it

[earnest phoenix]

All the users cash balance is stored in json.sqlite

tysm

[crimson vapor]

yikers

[earnest phoenix]

dbl_token

Do We pass anything else?

[crimson vapor]

I store all my data in mongodb with userID and guildID so I can ezpz grab the entire guild

[earnest phoenix]

Read the comment

Thx

I Didnt Notice that

[cinder patio]

I haven't really used quick.db, looks like you have to get all tables first, and then get the users table, then get all entries, not sure.

[earnest phoenix]

Thanks for help

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[cinder patio]

https://quickdb.js.org/overview/docs

here are the docs

which are also pretty shit

I think db.all() should do it, and then use Array#sort, but the docs aren't clear at all so

[earnest phoenix]

Ohk

[cinder patio]

but I recommend switching databases when your bot gets bigger

or, switching ORMs - sqlite is fine for discord bots. If you want power and simplicity I recommend sequelize

[silent cloud]

O hayooo

Why, when my bot working around 24 hours, I have this error

[earnest phoenix]

idk

search in youtube or google

do you recommend AWS as a host? And they say you can use it for 12 months free?

[lyric mountain]

there are less overkill options

also, free-trials are never good

[earnest phoenix]

ohv then? Cause contabo is like 15 euros a month

[quartz kindle]

free trial on amazon or google is better than glitch/heroku/repl.it

you can find vps for $3 / month

[earnest phoenix]

ovh is like 3 dollars

[midnight imp]

Does anyone need help with discord.js

[earnest phoenix]

So I guess I will use that?

[vocal sluice]

i’m using it rn and having no problems

[earnest phoenix]

HostGator is a couple of dollars a month, any reviews ?

[quartz kindle]

stay away from them

[earnest phoenix]

Which one do you recommend then

[prime glacier]

how can i get client user's?

[quartz kindle]

read this for why https://www.onlinetoolsexpert.com/full-list-of-eig-web-hosting-companies/

[compact prairie]

is there a way to send an embed and a message in the same message

lib discord.js

[earnest phoenix]

That on_dbl_vote is not getting called

How Do I Fix That

[lament rock]

channel.send(content, embed)

[compact prairie]

really

no

[lament rock]

If you want to edit a message to remove the content and only have an embed, do message.edit(null, embed)

believe me if you want to

[compact prairie]

ty

it worked

i had tried it before and it didnt work and now it did so

[lament rock]

Probably had it reversed

[compact prairie]

yeah

[pliant arch]

Hey, I hosted my code on heroku but after some time I'm getting the output 4-5 times, anyone knows how to fix?

[lament rock]

You're probably adding a message listener inside of another listener

[pliant arch]

No , I didn't do that... when I run the code using localhost it works fine

The problems happens after some time, for an hour it works fine

[lament rock]

How many instances of <Client>.on("message" are there

because users might do something you aren't doing

[earnest phoenix]

I found a nice VPS for cheap

https://oxide.host/discord-bot-hosting

[lament rock]

shit pricing for specs. You can get similar spec for free

[crimson vapor]

someone needs to start selling real vpss at 1 usd with like 1vcore and 512mb so people stop buying these shits

anyway

[lament rock]

true. 256MB of storage is laughable as well

[crystal wigeon]

hey umm

[lament rock]

sorry. 512

[crystal wigeon]

i get internal server error from discordjs...

[earnest phoenix]

It's the cheapest I found, most people don't recommend free servers

[crimson vapor]

I mean ram

[lament rock]

That's an Error on Discord's end

[crimson vapor]

give like 10gb storage lol

[crystal wigeon]

why would that happen

[crimson vapor]

back to my question

[crystal wigeon]

like i got like 5 such errors

[lament rock]

Idk. I'm not a Discord engineer. Discord is gay sometimes and breaks

[crimson vapor]

is there a way for me to fetch 10 specific guild members without fetching all or fetching them individually?

because spamming the api isnt good

and can I even fetch more than 1 without having the guild members intent?

[lament rock]

Pretty sure there's a limit option

[pale vessel]

yes

max 100

[crimson vapor]

can I specify like 10 of them that I need?

[pale vessel]

yes

[lament rock]

mmm oh. 10 specifically

Is there an option to get within an Array

I don't remember seeing that in the docs

[crimson vapor]

how would I do this flaze?

[pale vessel]

what are you using

[crimson vapor]

raw api basically

[pale vessel]

user_ids

[crimson vapor]

ah

[pale vessel]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#request-guild-members

[crimson vapor]

I got missing access error

[pale vessel]

check your payload

[crimson vapor]

hmm

[tardy hornet]

how can i make a leaderboard command? (quick.db)

@cinder patio u helped alot

[twilit pecan]

Hi there, how can i use this code in my bot?

Has a way to evict the redirect URL process?

[glacial pagoda]

Can Someone Tell me What Happend To Mongo?

[cinder patio]

can you elaborate? Are you working on an oauth2 app?

[twilit pecan]

Ok, i want get user name of Twitch connection

Just this username

So some guys tell me to use oAuth2

But i don't know use it right

[cinder patio]

yeah you can only get those via oAuth2

you need to have a webserver in order to use oauth2

[twilit pecan]

I've already think this...

So i made a website, the URL go to a JSON and it i use to verify?

[cinder patio]

You use the code that discord appends to the query params and exchange it for a user access token.

Which lib are you using for the server?

[twilit pecan]

I've not start to make it

But usually i use ExpressJS

[cinder patio]

oh

[glacial pagoda]

Can Someone Help Me?

Something Is Wrong With Mongo

[cinder patio]

you can get the code via req.query.code

[cinder patio]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20386464/econnrefused-error-when-connecting-to-mongodb-from-node-js

first answer on google

[glacial pagoda]

Ok!

[twilit pecan]

Oh, ok, im gonna try do this

Does works with Glitch?

[cinder patio]

yeah

[twilit pecan]

Sorry for the inconvenience

[tardy hornet]

if(message.mentions.members.first().id === '723081690792067143' || '798498750502928407') return message.reply("you cant rob them, lol you should have not tried that, now you got to wait 2h!")

it reply that to every user i ping, it should not

[cinder patio]

That's because the expression in the if statement boils down to false/true OR true, which is always true

That's not how you check if a value is either this or that

value === this || value === that

is the correct way

[lyric mountain]

that reply gives me roblox feels

[mellow kelp]

your might want to use ['id-1', 'id-2'].includes(thing)

[pale vessel]

big brain

[mellow kelp]

but you might also just store the id in a variable and compare it two times

[tired panther]

I am currently working on a lb

    guildid: { type: String },
    monthnumber: {type: Number}, ///?!?! Month starts on 0
    week1: {type: Array},
    week2: {type: Array},
    week3: {type: Array},
    week4: {type: Array}

How can I change or update week4 without making a case/if else condition to go on the object like

if (week ===1) guild.week1 = "100";
if(week === 2) guild.week2 = "100";
``` I do not want to make a case or a condition, is there a possiblity to go to the array object without checking for each 4 weeks

[cinder patio]

guild["week" + week] = "100" comes to mind

[tired panther]

this will work lol, had this in my mind, but was not sure, thx

[earnest phoenix]

Hi guys

why when i try console.log(gld)

i get the whole thing

and when i try

console.log(gld.members)

i get Cannot read property 'members' of undefined

btw

gld is guild

[cinder patio]

Where do you run console.log(gld.members)? inside an event, or a command?

[tired panther]

it works

[earnest phoenix]

i named it in this way bc it was already used

[tired panther]

show the full code xD

[earnest phoenix]

mm...

in a nodejs website

=)))

with ejs

console.log(guild.id)
const gld = bot.guilds.cache.get(guild.id)
console.log(gld)
const mbrs = gld.members
console.log(mbrs)

?

in first log i get the guild id

then i get members roles blah blah

and then i get this error

Cannot read property 'members' of undefined

[cinder patio]

that's really weird

[tired panther]

may the members are not in the cache

[earnest phoenix]

nope

there are

[tired panther]

log out .member lol

[cinder patio]

maybe it's got something to do with ejs

[tired panther]

Are you using discord.js?

[pale vessel]

what other lib has cache.get()

[earnest phoenix]

<ref *1> Guild {
2|app  |   members: GuildMemberManager {
2|app  |     cacheType: [class Collection extends Collection],
2|app  |     cache: Collection(60) [Map] {
2|app  |       '735096468091961415' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '433699344399728642' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '429334867923173377' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '411130600188149765' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '272663855891742720' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '269095564317163520' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '605121899512594462' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '293468745593126913' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '354695071095848970' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '272996542821171200' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '755720074756751392' => [GuildMember],
2|app  |       '277486282542809088' => [GuildMember],

that s the logs from

gld

[tired panther]

maybe he was using discord.js-light lol

[pale vessel]

still discord.js

[earnest phoenix]

yea

[tired panther]

that looks good

[tired panther]

but they do not cache anything lol

[earnest phoenix]

i tried .members.get(id)

[cinder patio]

I think ejs is definitely doing something here.

but I don't know much about ejs so I can't help

[earnest phoenix]

oh ok

thanks

[tired panther]

try create a function and then run it in ejs

[earnest phoenix]

one sec

[tired panther]

the funtion should be outside of your ejs code lol

[errant perch]

is bot.ws.ping the same as averaging the ping of every shard that is active

[tired panther]

How can I define many variable in a row?

let week;
let week2

wanted
let week ; let week2

but this style is

[cinder patio]

let week, week2; @tired panther

[tired panther]

interesting,

thx

[drifting wedge]

sometimes my bot starts, but it doesnt turn on
like it gets online
but it doesnt run
and it sometimes does too, so its not the code
and idk why its happening
ping me if anyone has any ideas

[earnest phoenix]

one problem...

<% guilds.forEach(guild => { %>
  <%- include('partials/gld', { guild }) -%>
<% }) %>

i have this code in ejs

how am i supposed to run it outside?

[crimson vapor]

what do you mean run it outside?

[tired panther]

export the file lol

[crimson vapor]

what are you talking about

exports in ejs?

[glossy spoke]

how can i connect a backend on node.js with a web's repl on repl.it

?

[pale vessel]

?

[glossy spoke]

i mean connect 2 repls

[crimson vapor]

@slim heart for command middleware you should require an absolute true to continue, so response === true

[earnest phoenix]

another question

how can I check if a user have a specific permission

?

i mean

something like this

if(guild.permissions === 2147483647)

[compact prairie]

🤔

[pale vessel]

no don't use that

[glossy spoke]

what the

[pale vessel]

Use &

[earnest phoenix]

like?

[glossy spoke]

@earnest phoenix for example manage guild, it's like

if (<message>.author.hasPermission("MANAGE_GUILD"));

[earnest phoenix]

yea

ik

=))

i m trying to use it on website

[glossy spoke]

o

[earnest phoenix]

soooo

that s y i m using this

[zenith knoll]

Can someone helpo me setup Express with TopGG voting webhooks?

[earnest phoenix]

i mean if(guild.permissions === 2147483647) is working, but it s checking if user has admin and i want to check if the user has manage guild permission

When the embed message is sent detects it as edited?

module.exports = async (bot, message, newMessage) => {
    if (message.author.id === bot.user.id || message.attachments.first()) return;
    const snipes = bot.editsnipes.get(message.channel.id) || [];
    snipes.unshift({
        old: message.embeds.length && message.content.length ? bot.functions.embedToMessage(message.embeds[0], message.content) : message.embeds.length ? bot.functions.embedToMessage(message.embeds[0]) : message.content,
        new: newMessage.embeds.length && newMessage.content.length ? bot.functions.embedToMessage(newMessage.embeds[0], newMessage.content) : newMessage.embeds.length ? bot.functions.embedToMessage(newMessage.embeds[0]) : newMessage.content,
        author: message.author,
        channel: message.channel,
        date: Date.now()
    })
    snipes.splice(10)
    bot.editsnipes.set(message.channel.id, snipes)
};

messageUpdate event ^

[quartz kindle]

yes, embeds trigger message updates

[earnest phoenix]

how can i prevent this?

i got an idea.

i will compare in 2 messages

[quartz kindle]

check if message.author exists

embed updates dont have an author

only a message id and the embed

[glossy spoke]

Tim

how can i make a web with node.js on repl? it doesn't load the html file

[misty sigil]

using express?

[glossy spoke]

no

[grizzled raven]

discord.js embed updates parameters are the message before it was edited and after it was edited and updated, so both would contain the author

just so you know :^)

[quartz kindle]

if you want to make a website, create a html repl, not a node one

[glossy spoke]

i wanna make a backend

[misty sigil]

what if you want a backend

[quartz kindle]

then you can use the node one, but you need a webserver

like express

[misty sigil]

Use express or something similar

[quartz kindle]

or fastify

or restana

or many others

there are like 50 of them

[grizzled raven]

node.html

[misty sigil]

html.node

[grizzled raven]

i should go check out fastify

[outer perch]

I noticed when a bot is fully shut down, the user keeps online after some seconds. Is there any function to logoff when shutting down? 😆

[rustic nova]

not really, apart from just being creative and having the bot set itself to offline when shutting down

[glossy spoke]

Tim

is this enough to make the web?

https://prnt.sc/z4ths6

[earnest phoenix]

(node:10476) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'cache' of undefined how is message.guilds undefined

[glossy spoke]

._.

did you mean client.guilds?

[earnest phoenix]

yes

lmfao

[frosty valve]

does it exist any better way I can make this?

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const webHookclient = new Discord.WebhookClient('No', 'sneakpeak')

exports.run = async(client, message, args) => {
  const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
    .setTitle('Some Title')
    .setColor('#0099ff');

  webHookclient.send('A error happen', {
      username: 'Command Errors',
      avatarURL: 'PFP',
      embeds: [embed],
  })
  };
                    

exports.help = {
  name: "webhook",
  aliases: []
}```

[earnest phoenix]

'A error happen'

[frosty valve]

no error happen

it is what it says when command is used

[earnest phoenix]

idk

[frosty valve]

like this

[misty sigil]

You’d need routes

[earnest phoenix]

it s possible to check if a bitfield has a specific flag??

sure

that's the whole point of bitfields

[glossy spoke]

how?

[earnest phoenix]

ohhhhh im a freaking idiot

[misty sigil]

read the docs

[earnest phoenix]

i made the function (client, db) but i called it as (db, client)

smh

[misty sigil]

http://expressjs.com/en/guide/routing.html

[glossy spoke]

thx

[mellow kelp]

i love that og image

it's literally just "Express"

[earnest phoenix]

can u give me a code example?

[earnest phoenix]

use bitwise AND

left hand side is your bitfield, right hand side is the flag you want to check

and then just check if the result of that equals to the flag

(node:3920) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, mkdir './db/data/guilds/731342408293285928/'

😩

o shite

my bad

i forgot to make that folder

[misty sigil]

ew

is that a json type db

[mellow kelp]

i just spent 30 minutes trying to fix a bug, before i realized the bug didn't even exist

i love coding

[earnest phoenix]

Also me who has spent 1 hour trying to check if a oauth2 user has a specific permission

=)))

and still with no succes

[tardy hornet]

how can i do that it will add , when needed in the number?

[earnest phoenix]

[mellow kelp]

js has a toLocaleString() method on numbers

you can add currency type and country

[earnest phoenix]

mm

[tardy hornet]

how?

[mellow kelp]

hold up

[earnest phoenix]

so discord oauth2 give a permissions number ( ex: 37080128 )

how can i check with this code if user has

a specific permission

?

:3

<#development message>

[earnest phoenix]

i still don t get it =)))

what don't you get about it

[tardy hornet]

oki

[mellow kelp]

oh i found it

yourNumber.toLocaleString('en-US', { style: 'currency', currency: 'USD'})

[earnest phoenix]

i tried nb = new Discord.Permissions('37080128') and i get RangeError [BITFIELD_INVALID]: Invalid bitfield flag or number.

so yea

[tardy hornet]

okay, so now how do i use it in my commands tho?

[earnest phoenix]

[mellow kelp]

thats up to you

you could make a shorthand function

[fierce ether]

    async resolveChannel(search, guild){
        let channel = null;
        if(!search || typeof search !== "string") return
        if(search.match(/^<@&!?(\d+)>$/)){
            const id = search.match(/^<@&!?(\d+)>$/)[1];
            channel = guild.channel.cache.get(id);
            if(channel) return channel;
        }
        channel = guild.channels.cache.find((c) => search === c.name);
        if(channel) return channel;
        channel = guild.roles.cache.get(search);
        return channel;
    }``` how would i make this work for #channel aswell

[glossy spoke]

@earnest phoenix hahahahaha what are you doing here?

[earnest phoenix]

I do not undesrtand inglish

nvm

solved it

[glossy spoke]

So why are you here if you doesn't understand

[earnest phoenix]

Not speak inglish

Bitch

lol

[glossy spoke]

Any mod?

[earnest phoenix]

Not

[glossy spoke]

This guy just called me bitch

[earnest phoenix]

Xd

Ya xd

[glossy spoke]

It's funny for you?

[earnest phoenix]

[rustic nova]

please move channel if you're not here to talk about development

[magic vault]

Whats the going rate to make 3000 lines of Java code reactive and sharded in Discord4J?

I'm kidding, I will ask for help in the future - it's tough - I LOVE .blocking()

[glossy spoke]

He just called me bitch, wouldn't you warn him or something like that?

[rustic nova]

@earnest phoenix Yeah please don't be rude to other people aswell

[rustic nova]

glad i never had to deal with sharding yet

[magic vault]

Yeah I think I kind of upset the Discord4J community when trying to show my failing at reactive - its so different from regular Java that I just can't. It's alright, I launched today and still have only two guilds, both of which I own 🙂 so maybe I need to hold back my concerns and also my hopes.

[distant cobalt]

let i = await message.channel.send(user1.toString(), embed2)
            i.react('✅').then(() => i.react('❎'));

            const filter = (reaction, user1) => {
                return ['✅', '❎'].includes(reaction.emoji.name) && user1.id === user1.id;
            };

            message.awaitReactions(filter, { max: 1, time: 60000, errors: ['time'] })
                .then(collected => {
                    const reaction = collected.first();

                    if (reaction.emoji.name === '✅') {
                        message.reply('Accepted');
                    } else {

                .catch(collected => {
                    message.channel.send('You did not in time.');
                });``` how come the bot doesn't recognize that i added a reaction?

[opal plank]

what the heck is that

[crimson vapor]

^

[opal plank]

let i = await message.channel.send(user1.toString(), embed2)
            i.react('✅').then(() => i.react('❎'));```

wtf

[distant cobalt]

await reaction

[drowsy ledge]

ctrl+c and ctrl+v

[opal plank]

let i = await message.channel.send(user1.toString(), embed2);
await i.react('✅');
await i.react('❎');

[opal plank]

this

[drowsy ledge]

hippity hoppity your code is now property

[opal plank]

where did you copy that from boulevard?

[distant cobalt]

the guide

[opal plank]

WHICH guide?

[distant cobalt]

i learn stuff here https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/reactions.html#awaiting-reactions

[opal plank]

okay good that you checking docs, but thats 100% not good practice you doing there with await and .then

[distant cobalt]

oh

[opal plank]

okay wtf

bruh

the DOCS have that garbage?

[earnest phoenix]

Lol

[distant cobalt]

so i can just do js await i.react('❎');?

[earnest phoenix]

Erwing going rrrrrrrrr

[crimson vapor]

wait

ik why

[opal plank]

oh, they dont want to async the snippets

[distant cobalt]

it's the official docs

[crimson vapor]

because you are not awaiting the reactions

therefore it doesn't work

[proven lantern]

wont this wait for check and then only wait for x after it receives a check?

await i.react('✅');
await i.react('❎');```

[opal plank]

 return ['✅', '❎'].includes(reaction.emoji.name) && user1.id === user1.id;

user1.id === user1.id;

whats this suppose be doing there?

if apples === apples

[distant cobalt]

make sure that it's the right user

[slim heart]

erwin join vc

i need help

[crimson vapor]

@opal plank @slim heart needs help with declaring a namespace

[opal plank]

sure

[proven lantern]

you need to use the .then so you are not blocking

[midnight blaze]

can you use a collector for all the channels in the guild?

[crimson vapor]

https://github.com/jpbberry/discord-rose @opal plank

wait

shit

there

[unkempt ocean]

yes you can, just make sure you don't filter it

oh wait

yes you still can ig, with the for loop maybe

[opal plank]

you can make your own collector too

and use the message event to filter

[drifting wedge]

My bot can't log in, like it turns on but it doesn't respond and the ready event is not called, and when it is, the web socket disconnects right after

[unkempt ocean]

Please stop spamming this

[fringe pendant]

find out how to leave a guild in whatever library you're using

[cloud warren]

very urgent

[earnest phoenix]

in which library

[opal plank]

we arent going to spoonfeed you, we can lead you to the right path

[cloud warren]

discord.js

[opal plank]

loop client.guilds.cache

and check for memberCount < 200

[cloud warren]

I tried but it failed

[opal plank]

what DID you try?

[cloud warren]

not worked

[fringe pendant]

odds are not many guilds you're in have < 5 members

[cloud warren]

I tried at 200 it gives an error again

[unkempt ocean]

what is that i?

[cloud warren]

it was written like that on google

[unkempt ocean]

is there any error? like i is not defined?

[cloud warren]

man but it gives an error I tried many times

[unkempt ocean]

can you show us the error?

and also you should remove that i, you don't even defined it

I tried it gave different error this time

[wicked pivot]

tempchannel.setPosition(4)```

[grizzled raven]

try two \\

[delicate zephyr]

i swear node atuo converts / anyway

so / should work

[urban surge]

it worked now thanks

[grizzled raven]

don't think fs does though

[modest maple]

It certainly should

If it doesn't then that is a horrible oversight

[delicate zephyr]

it does

atleast when ive done it has

[mellow kelp]

yes it does

[grizzled raven]

wack

[outer perch]

(node:2352) TimeoutOverflowWarning: 5184000000 does not fit into a 32-bit signed integer.
```what

[odd stratus]

Integer is too big? 🤔

[mellow kelp]

fat int

[dusky sundial]

The number is too big for a 32bit int

[outer perch]

so how do I remove VIP after 2 months?

The error is in the timeout

[mellow kelp]

use cron probably

[dusky sundial]

You could use a long, instead of an int

[outer perch]

tell me more

[mellow kelp]

cron jobs

you schedule a function to be executed at a certain point in time or something

[outer perch]

omfg, ty

[mellow kelp]

there's a package called node-cron

[quartz kindle]

do you have a database that stores vip information?

[outer perch]

I was using Date() to get the value in miliseconds

[outer perch]

tecnically

[quartz kindle]

how do you store the time period for which it is valid?

[outer perch]

in Firebase, each document from the collection 'vip' has it's id set to the user's, and has a value called 'until' which is a timestamp

[quartz kindle]

alright

so on bot start, begin an interval that fetches all documents whose "until" field is smaller than 1 day away

[outer perch]

already have that

[quartz kindle]

have the interval run every 24 hours or something

[outer perch]

oh

[quartz kindle]

and for each fetched document, begin a timeout for them

[outer perch]

should I do that? I don't wanna exceed quotas

[quartz kindle]

its one database operation per day, its not gonna matter

idk how firebase works as i've never used it, but you should be able to fetch multiple documents at once by a certain criteria

[outer perch]

I got the timeouts right, but the miliseconds are huge

[mellow kelp]

cron jobs

[quartz kindle]

they are not right

the idea is to create a timeout ONLY for the ones who will expire in less than one day

you're setting timeouts for 2 months

[mellow kelp]

hmm true

[outer perch]

well, I thought wrong

I need to think about these things better

or else I might do something huge, when I could do it little

[quartz kindle]

its pretty simple

[outer perch]

no wait, I understood what you said

I was talking in general

[quartz kindle]

// bot start
setInterval(() => {
  let data = firebase.fetch(documents WHERE until < Date.now() + 1 day in ms) // or whatever the api looks like
  for(let doc of data) {
    setTimeout(() => {
      unvip(doc.id)
    }, doc.until - Date.now())
  }
}, 1 day in ms)

lul

[outer perch]

wait WHAT

fetch? omfg I didn't find such thing anywhere

const refV = db.collection('vip');
const snapshot = await refV.where('until', '!=', 'forever').get();

        if (!snapshot.empty) {
            snapshot.forEach(doc => {
                const until = doc.get('until');
                const 

                if (until != 'forever') {
                    const ms = (until._seconds * 1000) - Date.now();
                    vip.add(doc.id);
                    setTimeout(() => {
                        vip.delete(doc.id);
                        doc.delete();
                    }, ms);
                }
            });
        }

what I had xD

[quartz kindle]

i never used firebase so idk what its api looks like

hence why i commented

// or whatever the api looks like

[outer perch]

oh, k

thought it existed xDDD

[quartz kindle]

is there a way to add another condition to that where?

[outer perch]

I guess not

the docs didn't mention that

[quartz kindle]

where until != forever AND until < Date.now() + 1day

thats what you need

[outer perch]

at least at where I looked

yeah, I have a 'forever' for me and my gf xDDD

gonna check the where usage

[quartz kindle]

from the firebase docs

citiesRef.where("state", "==", "CO").where("name", "==", "Denver");

[outer perch]

oh, weird way

[quartz kindle]

You can chain multiple equality operators (== or array-contains) methods to create more specific queries (logical AND). However, you must create a composite index to combine equality operators with the inequality operators, <, <=, >, and !=.

[outer perch]

what about >=?

just askin', they didn't mention it

[quartz kindle]

no idea

try it

[outer perch]

don't need it

I was just skeptical

const snapshot = await refV.where('until', '!=', 'forever').where('until', '<', Date.now() + 86400000).get();

I guess it should be like this

[quartz kindle]

i guess yeah

[outer perch]

I learned a lot with this, ty @quartz kindle

gonna give a star like some other random guy did 😂

🌟

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[grizzled raven]

save some stars for the rest of us

[outer perch]

lol, Kirby talkin' 😂

[swift cloak]

const config = ConfigSchema.findOne({
guildID: message.guild.id
})
console.log(config.prefix)

it says undefined
but im looking in the collections
and prefix does exist

[grizzled raven]

you have to await it

[quaint wasp]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to host their bot 24/7 with no crash's fre

[tulip wave]

Await or .then

[quaint wasp]

e?

[grizzled raven]

buy a host

a vps

[tulip wave]

Only way to get reliable uptime is getting a vps

[grizzled raven]

or go insane and buy a dedi

[quaint wasp]

What's dedi?

[tulip wave]

Dedicated server

[quaint wasp]

Is it better than vp

[grizzled raven]

don't worry about them though, i was joking

[quaint wasp]

s?

Alright...

[tulip wave]

Don't worry about dedicated servers they ain't worth it for small bots

[grizzled raven]

[earnest phoenix]

I get an error "the user aborted a request" what is this i am using d.js v12

[quaint wasp]

Mine.... Idk... Small.. has only 20 cmds...

For moderation

https://tenor.com/view/pedro-monkey-puppet-meme-awkward-gif-15268759

[tulip wave]

When we talk about size we mean more of server count

[earnest phoenix]

Does anyone have an idea

[quaint wasp]

Nope....

[earnest phoenix]

[tulip wave]

Can you show the full error?

[earnest phoenix]

sure

[dusky sundial]

You might want to provide some code as well, otherwise it's gonna be really hard to tell what's wrong

[tulip wave]

That too

But full error first

[earnest phoenix]

Is this (on the vds)

[quaint wasp]

wow..

[dusky sundial]

AbortError usually means that a request took too long or didn't finish at all

[quaint wasp]

How do u make an embed if its not MessageEmbed?

[modest crane]

how many servers do your bot have?

[tulip wave]

Possibly a network issue

[tulip wave]

embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
I think

[earnest phoenix]

probably because VDS in Turkey and far from Discord servers

[quaint wasp]

idk.. I finished codig it minutes ago. Its only in 11 servers. I didn't even thought about advertising 'till now.

[unkempt ocean]

^^

[modest crane]

hmm

[quaint wasp]

wwaaiitt...

[tulip wave]

I forgot how to use d.js lol
