Wait 2 instances of the client? You should always have 1 client
I am testing it rn
Ik
It isn't a bot client
It just is logged into the API as a bot
But the bot doesn't have anything but a ready event
outer perch
hmmm
solemn latch
are you doing this in the ready event?
outer perch
when I want to test my code I use the Dev version's client token
blissful coral
are you doing this in the ready event?
nope
solemn latch
guilds are not cached until the ready event
solemn latch
when I want to test my code I use the Dev version's client token
some things its okay to use the same bot(like a dashboard). things the user wont have access too at the moment either way its okay.
outer perch
makes sense

yeah lol

so its logging after "bot is ready."?

Yes

mellow kelp
that's a function to recursively read an entire directory
it reads the base files of the directory first, and loops through them
if the file is a directory, the function calls itself to get the files inside that subdirectory
mellow kelp
if the file is just a file it adds it to the results
blissful coral
But if I console.log() and use get() it finds it
outer perch
if the file is just a file it adds it to the results
how do i execute the function?

readFullDirSync('some_directory/')

but where
mellow kelp
idk

insert it in the index?

you wanted a script to rename .js files to .ts

the web client uses js does it not?
glossy spoke
Ye
warped torrent
and the app is electron
mellow kelp
that doesn't matter at all
quartz kindle
?
the desktop and browser clients are built with js
the android client is built with java
the ios client is probably built with swift
their servers are built with go, rust, python and probably more languages
glossy spoke
But js isn't native discord lmao
outer perch
the web client uses js does it not?
just because it's on web, doesn't mean the real app is written in JS
outer perch
hmm
warped torrent
they use electron + react

it's not like making a bot in js will inherently make it faster

ah xd
stark abyss
quartz kindle
```js
pool.query(`UPDATE claninfo SET entryFee = ${entryFee}, due = ...
what is the value of the variable due?
outer perch
Parameter 'undefined' implicitly has an 'any' type, but a better type may be inferred from usage. lmao
stark abyss
its "daily"
quartz kindle
then it needs to be in quotes
stark abyss
hm
quartz kindle
```Parameter 'undefined' implicitly has an 'any' type, but a better type may be ...
ah yes because you can totally do undefined = false

ah yes because you can totally do undefined = false
O_O

var due = "daily";
this is what its like tho
mossy jackal

quartz kindle
var due = "daily";
this is what its like tho
in the query
stark abyss
${"due"}?
quartz kindle
no
stark abyss
quartz kindle
quotes define a string literal, so "text" is a string, but if you put it inside another string, the quotes are removed, otherwise it would be stupid. for example ```js
a = "text"
b = abc ${a} xyz
b is equal to `abc text xyz` and not `abc "text" xyz`however the sql query must be column = "text" and not column = text
outer perch
should I do `module.exports` on commands?
hmm export default{ //command code } should do
stark abyss
okay I think I understand
quartz kindle
should I do `module.exports` on commands?
arent you supposed to export bla in ts?
outer perch
hmm `export default{ //command code }` should do
👆🏻
quartz kindle
if you do export function
then you get it with import function from
if you do export default
then you do import * as function from
or import default from
outer perch
but
I am talking about the command handler
I need to export the code for index.js to read
outer perch
full code
quartz kindle
you dont export full code, not even in js
you export specific things
like module.exports = something
outer perch
yes
quartz kindle
so what are you exporting
outer perch
module.exports = {
name: 'angry',
execute(bot, message, command, db, lang) {
const user = message.mentions.users.first();
const rnd = Math.floor(Math.random() * 6);
if (!user || user == message.author) {
return message.channel.send(`${message.author}${lang.angry.gotAngry}`, { files: [`img/actions/${command.name} (${rnd}).gif`] }).catch(err => { console.error(err); });
}
else if (user == bot.user) {
return message.channel.send(`${message.author}${lang.angry.gotAngryWithUs} 😧`, { files: [`img/actions/${command.name} (${rnd}).gif`] }).catch(err => { console.error(err); });
}
else {
message.channel.send(`${message.author}${lang.angry.gotAngryWith}${user}!`, { files: [`img/actions/${command.name} (${rnd}).gif`] }).catch(err => { console.error(err); });
}
},
};
export const name = "angry"
export function execute(...) {}```aha
quartz kindle
and then you can import name from or import execute from
outer perch
what about aliases
this one doesn't have any
but the others have
and
interface Cmd {
name: string;
aliases: string[];
execute(bot: Client, message: Message, command: Object, db: any, lang: Object, language: string, prefix: string, args: string[], serverSettings: Object): void;
}
as null?
quartz kindle
for example yes
outer perch
what If I don't export them
quartz kindle
or make aliases optional in your interface
quartz kindle
yes

Hello everyone. Can someone help me about Python? I have a little question 🙂
How can I obfuscate my python codes safely? Is pyarmor safe method for it?
solemn leaf
Why would you need to obfuscate
midnight blaze
module.exports.test = function test(test) {...}
Idk, I use this
vestal parrot
Why would you need to obfuscate
Everyone is asking this. Otherwise how can I protect my software? I dont know.
solemn leaf
You dont really need to
mellow kelp
python is server-side, there's no need for obfuscation
solemn leaf
But ok
mellow kelp
i guess you could rename variables to random letters
but you can't really obfuscate the code, since python relies on indent and that sort of stuff

Thanks for helping 🙂 Sorry, I'm just curious.
For example; I develop online trade bot and will sell it. Will this be safe when I don't obfuscate the codes?
solemn leaf
You can change the encoding
And maybe compress to a executable
Other then that I dont know
vestal parrot
You have been very helpful. Thanks a lot.
vestal parrot
As far as I researched best way for obfuscation in python is cython and pyinstaller to make .exe files.
solemn leaf
Yep so I thought
mellow kelp
oh yeah exe files
solemn leaf
I think you can chnage the encoding of the py files
Say to like some random encoding
Then just decode it once you run it
outer perch
I'd like to decode Sonic.exe
mellow kelp
lmao
vestal parrot
Thats a good idea. Lastly which programming language is the best for obfuscation? I think c++
solemn leaf
@outer perch there id a windows terminal command for that

Thats a good idea. Lastly which programming language is the best for obfuscation...

Why every programmers asks me; why would you need to obfuscate?

obfuscating games
vestal parrot
Oh okay copy that 🙂
outer perch
wait a minute
quartz kindle
obfuscation is not needed unless your program has some kind of trade secret in it
or an anti-crack/anti-cheat
if you just want to hide your source-code for copyright reasons, look into compiling to native code, if your language supports it
outer perch
why didn't Scott Cawthon hide the variables from the FNaF games?
you can change those to get further in the game without actually playing the game
quartz kindle
when it comes to videogames, having them cracked can actually help you

quartz kindle
it gives you more exposure and popularity, and also more interest

outer perch
it gives you more exposure and popularity, and also more interest

yes, many are afraid
outer perch
Tim there is something I don't understand. Aren't developers afraid of their pro...
Garry after creating a fake bug for GMod pirates
vestal parrot
yes, many are afraid
So why don't they need obfuscate?
quartz kindle
if your code is compiled, you already have a decent protection
source code cannot be easily decompiled, not to the same code as it was
you can decompile it in many different ways but it will not be the same
outer perch
programs are evolving to WebApps
quartz kindle
decompiled code looks like a bunch of weird functions and variables with weird names
mellow kelp
unless you're using jar files 😔
outer perch
so u don't have to download anything
outer perch
and to avoid those things
outer perch
u can't decompile if u can't access

yup
drowsy grail
thats just c in general tho
outer perch
weird

oof lol
quartz kindle
it depends on the language as well

for sure
quartz kindle
some languages produce more complex compiled code than others
and also depends on the compiler
drowsy grail

outer perch
@mellow kelp I installed eslint for TS, but it's not saying shit about those extra tabs
quartz kindle
if you make a game in a compiled language like c++ or similar, and distribute the exe, people will be able to reverse engineer many things, but they wont be able to extract the exact source code nor clone the entire project

So I'm trying to get my bot to respond to both @mentions and custom prefixes (discord.py)
Here's the code for the assignment of the bot object:
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix= getPrefix, owner_id = int(ownerID), case_insensitive = True)
And here's the code for that function it calls:
async def getPrefix(bot, message):
guild = message.guild
if guild and ("database" not in disabled):
server = await fetchServerEntry(message.guild.id)
serverPrefix = server[1]
return commands.when_mentioned_or(serverPrefix)
else:
return commands.when_mentioned_or("!")
Whenever this is ran, this error occurs:
TypeError: command_prefix must be plain string, iterable of strings, or callable returning either of these, not function
fetchServerEntry always returns a list, and server[1] is the column which contains the prefix for the specified server, which is always a string. I don't see why it's complaining about the type, can anyone spot it?
I should note that @mentions work, but custom prefixes don't
Also custom prefixes were working before I made this change

channel = message.channel as TextChannel
or (message.channel as TextChannel).guild
mellow kelp
yeah you can also do that
you might want to check if the channel is a DMChannel if there are no previous checks before tho
solemn latch
does message?.guild or whatever not exist in ts?
quartz kindle
pretty sure it does
since it supports esnext features
but in order to use message.guild?.name you would have to declare guild as an optional property on message
and i dont know if union types with missing fields count as optional there
mellow kelp
i think guild is optional
outer perch
you might want to check if the channel is a DMChannel if there are no previous c...
I did a check like that in index
zenith terrace
any time I look up about typescript all it shows it discord.js
outer perch
if (message.channel.type === 'dm' || message.author.bot) return;
I have this in index
zenith terrace
should work
quartz kindle
works for js, but doesnt tell ts what type is it
as far as ts is concerned, message.channel is still DM | Text | News
quartz kindle
because djs has wack typings
because channel.type exists in all 3 of them
but channel.guild doesnt
quartz kindle
js and djs-light, which is basically djs
quartz kindle
because its a pain to setup
outer perch
xD
opal plank
as simple as
```ts
if (channel instanceof DMChannel) return;
```
@outer perch instead of this, if you 100% know its not a dm channel, just cast it as GuildBasedChannel
for example, i have all my commands be guild only
they cant be executed in dm's
outer perch
`if (message.channel.type === 'dm' || message.author.bot) return;`
in index
opal plank
if you're case is the same, theres no need to add extra logic on runtime
outer perch
it has been working forever
opal plank
because its a pain to setup
lies and deciet
outer perch
xD
quartz kindle
how would you cast it to avoid runtime logic?
like cast it only once
assign it to a variable?
opal plank
instance of is the same as if() something
you adding extra logic knowing the variable type
theres no need
its the same as this tim
quartz kindle
how do you stop the code from continuing with casting only then?
opal plank
client.on('message', message => {
if(!message.channel.guild) return;
command.run(message);
})
// and then adding this to your command
if(!message.channel.guild) return;
well that works if you previously checked that the message has a guild
opal plank
types are only used in ts
its redudant to check it twice if you already know its type
quartz kindle
yes but how does type casting prevent the code from executing in this case
what is the logic behind it
opal plank
thats a question i've had an answer too, but never got the answer for it
nor did i check
earnest phoenix
hey just curious is it possible to add other bots using discord.js? this wont be a public bot dw
opal plank
should be fairly simple though
quartz kindle
show a ts snippet
opal plank
let me get a test config rq
quartz kindle
like how would you replace the if in ts
if you do x as y, does the code not execute if x cannot be y?
mellow kelp
instanceof is a js thing
outer perch
```ts
client.on('message', message => {
if(!message.channel.guild) return;
...
wouldn't be just !message.guild?
tiny dune
opal plank
@outer perch both works
outer perch
with !message.channel.guild, TS will point at that
cuz it can be 3 types where .guild doesn't exist in 2

how to running some sort of program that communicates with discord's API on this website : https://discord.com/developers/applications/802347256917262336/information
opal plank
@quartz kindle oh, its js
quartz kindle
you said there is no need for extra logic at runtime
thats what im confused about, how can do execute an IF with ts casting only?
opal plank
mellow kelp
it uses instanceof which is a javascript thing
opal plank
what i meant is this #development message
quartz kindle
thats not what i mean
opal plank
you're checking types twice
quartz kindle
show me a ts snippet that works without an IF
opal plank
wdym?
quartz kindle
you said that an if was not necessary
slim stag
<@!180112943612952577> oh, its js
what you mean ?
quartz kindle
and to typecast it instead
quartz kindle
and if they didnt?
opal plank
`if (message.channel.type === 'dm' || message.author.bot) return;`
this
then you would need it, yes
quartz kindle
ah
quartz kindle
i thought you said they didnt need that if
opal plank
well it cna be one of the 3
so you need to do some logic to remove the ones you dont want
quartz kindle
yes
quartz kindle
i got confused because it sounded like you could to ```js
X as Y
like the casting would replace an IF check
quartz kindle
yes thats what i thought
opal plank
checking with instanceof is smart, but in this case is redudant since they already know all messages are coming from guilds
and iirc you can remove dm message intents too
so technically speaking you wouldnt even need that in the index
quartz kindle
is there a way to cast something without assigning it to a variable and without having to repeatedly cast inline again?
opal plank
hmmm
quartz kindle
well you could replace the variable itself no?
opal plank
if its a function you could cast it in the function parameter
otherwise, i dont think so
quartz kindle
message.channel = message.channel as TextChannel?
opal plank
let me check something, i think i might be able to merge it
import {Message, TextBasedChannel } from 'discord.js';
interface _Message extends Message {
channel!: TextBasedChannel
}
module.exports = {
run: (message: _Message) {
//logic
}
}
you might be able to fly with this
outer perch
! means must?
opal plank
it means its always present
outer perch
ah, k
quartz kindle
well thats a way i guess
but at that point just reassign it lol
you could also destructure it
run: ({ channel: TextChannel }) {
channel.guild
}
Ah yeah, that too but then i dont think you'd be able to call message again
You could pass both tho
And use channel instead of message.channel
outer perch
this one got me
quartz kindle
you dont usually call message anyway, usually just content and channel, so you can just desctructure both
opal plank
this one got me
Same deal, cast it
outer perch
just tell me something

bruh why on dms you cant but on here can
lyric mountain
Bots are programs that run somewhere
slim stag
You can't "run" a bot
i mena online it with command
opal plank
even though a is a string, you're casting it and saying: okay, a is now a number
ancient vault
Bots are programs that run somewhere
yep
outer perch
even though a is a string, you're casting it and saying: okay, a is now a number
aight
lyric mountain
You need to code it
ancient vault
even though a is a string, you're casting it and saying: okay, a is now a number
mhm
quartz kindle
for example in a language like c++, where you have multiple types of integers, you can cast a signed int to an unsigned int, or cast an int32 to int16, or even cast a char to an int and vice versa
slim stag
You need to code it
yeha but what
lyric mountain
But what what?
opal plank
since there are 3 of them
ancient vault
You need to code it
I told you last time @slim stag
lyric mountain
Like, you need to write the code from scratch
outer perch

thats one option yes

that would work, yeah

dusky sundial
yeha but what
Learn the basics of a programming language and then get into the discord library for that lang
quartz kindle
another option is (message.channel as TextChannel).bulkDelete
opal plank
^^
outer perch
another option is (message.channel as TextChannel).bulkDelete
I prefer that one ngl
opal plank
i prefer that one for single cases
opal plank
if you use more than once, use a variable
crimson vapor
wtf
quartz kindle
another is (<TextChannel>message.channel).bulkDelete
opal plank
otherwise you're gonna be having more and more code unecessarily
though theres no harm
crimson vapor
why is msg message.channel?
opal plank
type are only used in ts
outer perch
another is (<TextChannel>message.channel).bulkDelete
as is more readable
outer perch
o_O
quartz kindle
which already used <> for something else
outer perch
I hate when TS says this maybe converted to that
I never know if I have to put it like that already
or keep as is
opal plank
well, you DID copy my settings, which is a lot strict

mellow kelp
am i supposed to use the command client
mellow kelp
they show it a lot in the examples but i feel like i need something else
i wanna use the shardclient
opal plank
then you can use clusterClient option to amke it cluster
or shardClient for a single one
opal plank
just do this
const commandClient = new CommandClient(config.token, {
useClusterClient: true,
}
detritus i can spoonfeed a bit more, their docs are a bit lacking
mellow kelp
yeah
opal plank
thats for when you want to use multiple shards
mellow kelp
but seems simple enough
grizzled raven
who wants to benchmark requiring json files vs requiring js files
grizzled raven

mellow kelp
nah im gonna use either the shardclient or clusterclient
tim
time for your daily benchmark
opal plank
i'd recommend clustering, but setting a single shard
that'd save you from the hassle of porting it later down the line
mellow kelp
is there a difference?
opal plank
source: dude, trust me
mellow kelp
i don't fully get what the clusterclient does

legit

Glued glass cup

clusterClient is a client with lots of ShardClients inside
mellow kelp
i mean my bot doesn't use sharding yet

if you dont think it will EVER need to be sharded, dont bother
otherwise, better start soon
and use a single shard

better than taking your bot down for 2 months to rewrite it

you get declarations for each file
