development

[drifting wedge]

and that instance wouldnt be sharded

okay

[modest maple]

you know when i said clustering for the sake of clustering is a bad idea 🤣

welcome to just the start of why

[drifting wedge]

well then what can i do?

[modest maple]

make your own system

[flat pelican]

Clustering is scary tho

[drifting wedge]

@modest maple okay

so lets say i wont cluster

i will eventually have to

[modest maple]

only about 1-2% of all bots on discord even need clustering ever

[flat pelican]

that's why I don't want to start clustering mine for now

[drifting wedge]

and when that happens would i need to do?

setup webservers?

[flat pelican]

I really don't think 20k is enough to cluster

[drifting wedge]

50k?

[modest maple]

well that point you'll likely be more experienced with python and understand how to set it up

[drifting wedge]

@slim heart when did u start clustering?

[modest maple]

20k is pretty high depending on usage

[drifting wedge]

okay

[modest maple]

if you have presence enabled as a intent you'll generally need to start by then unless you have a high clockspeed

[dire obsidian]

ok so, is there a way to align this?

[drifting wedge]

why?

[flat pelican]

I don't have the presence intent yet personally

[modest maple]

What ever language you're using should have support for string formatting and some form of padding

[flat pelican]

Discord declined my intent request

[drifting wedge]

a lot of cache?

[flat pelican]

it's good if you can get the presence intent tho

[modest maple]

because presence makes up about 90% of all the websocket events you get

Spooderfy went from taking up about 50% cpu usage on a 8 core to 5% when we cut presence

[drifting wedge]

if i do get presence intents/

then i need clustering or can i get away without?

[modest maple]

bro ngl i wouldnt worry about it till you actually need it

chance are you're never going to need it

thats just a reality

[modest maple]

If you dont need presence then its pretty pointless

Spotfiy's old code bad without presence

[solemn latch]

which imo a majority of bots dont need presences

[modest maple]

very few need it

[flat pelican]

I mean you can cache/chunk your members as how it was previously

before the indents update

[modest maple]

you can do that without presence

[flat pelican]

not really

[modest maple]

Mmm yes really

[slim heart]

15k

[drifting wedge]

ok ty

so im trying to do ipc

NameError: name 'client' is not defined```

and im getting this erorr

[modest maple]

client is not defined

[slim heart]

lib?

[drifting wedge]

ye ik

py

[slim heart]

no clue

[drifting wedge]

discord.ext.ipc

[modest maple]

well we cant guess your error

[drifting wedge]

ik ik

[modest maple]

well we dont need to guess

we have your error

[drifting wedge]

like what ckuebt us ut>

[modest maple]

we cant guess your code

[drifting wedge]

is it the bot client or class?

https://github.com/Ext-Creators/discord-ext-ipc/blob/master/examples/cog_based_ipc/bot.py in the docs

it says my_bot

but mybot is the bot client and class

[modest maple]

well read the example code

what is the custom class inheriting

[drifting wedge]

ye bot client

[flat pelican]

I was referring to this

Why does on_ready take so long to fire?

As part of the API change regarding intents, Discord also changed how members are loaded in the beginning. Originally the library could request 75 guilds at once and only request members from guilds that have the Guild.large attribute set to True. With the new intent changes, Discord mandates that we can only send 1 guild per request. This causes a 75x slowdown which is further compounded by the fact that all guilds, not just large guilds are being requested.

There are a few solutions to fix this.

The first solution is to request the privileged presences intent along with the privileged members intent and enable both of them. This allows the initial member list to contain online members just like the old gateway. Note that we’re still limited to 1 guild per request but the number of guilds we request is significantly reduced.

[modest maple]

ah yeah

you cant get a similar system though now we can manually control the chunking

in some ways its a bit nicer because you can lazily chunk members

[brittle fable]

The upvote webhook thingy is still giving me a 500 error

[drifting wedge]

@modest maple

class Bot(commands.AutoShardedBot):
    def __init__(self):

        self.ipc = ipc.Server(self, secret_key="ipc key")

        super().__init__(command_prefix = prefix, shard_count = shard_count, shard_ids=shards_to_run, owner_ids=OWNER_IDS, help_command=None, activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.playing, name=f".help | bot website"), intents=discord.Intents.all())

...
if __name__== "__main__":
    client.ipc.start()

    client = Bot()
    client.run("1.0.0", "token")```

this is the code

from discord.ext import commands, ipc relevant imports

[copper cradle]

are you

omg

[modest maple]

okay so where do you plan on getting client from before you define it

[drifting wedge]

oh lol

[copper cradle]

this is what happens when you copy & paste code

[drifting wedge]

didnt add that in

wdym?

[copper cradle]

how couldn't you see that was the problem

[drifting wedge]

no this is parts of my code

[copper cradle]

I know

[modest maple]

the point he's making is that its very obviously just copied from the example before you even attempted to understand it

[drifting wedge]

i understood it

i just cant get it to work?

[modest maple]

erm well i do hate to break it to you but your error clearly proves otherwise

[copper cradle]

[drifting wedge]

[copper cradle]

you're trying to acess client before defining it

check the code inside that if statement

[drifting wedge]

oh

lol

LOL

@copper cradle @modest maple ty

[dark axle]

one a question

where i put max uses at this

  msg.react('✔')
  
  msg.react('❌')

  msg.awaitReactions((reaction, user) =>{
    if(message.author.id !== user.id) return;
    if(reaction.emoji.name === '❌'){
      msg.edit(notlike)
    }     

  if(reaction.emoji.name === '✔'){
      message.channel.send('Im glad you like this meme')
    }

[lyric mountain]

max uses?

[rose warren]

Question: my bot doesn't have presence perms. Can I get an un-cached user's username from the API by doing client.users.fetch("USER_ID") instead of getting it from my database? If so, the only drawback of doing this is if that user doesn't have any mutual servers with my bot, the bot won't be able to fetch the username?

[dusky sundial]

I could be completely wrong in this, but I think fetch is an API call so it should be fine. Just make sure to not use it too often

[odd stratus]

users.fetch should be able to get that information even if they’re not in the guild

Mine doesn’t have presence intents but it was able to get this

(Your user ID)

[rose warren]

Yep

Just did some further digging thanks 👍

[odd stratus]

[rose warren]

My only worry is hitting the API so often

[odd stratus]

How often are you doing it?

[rose warren]

It's probably not too bad tbh. Every time a user calls their bot profile.

[odd stratus]

It should be fine

It’s not like it’s happening every 1 second

[rose warren]

The profile command isn't in my top 10 most-used commands so should be ok

Lol I've been storing usernames in my db since October to be able to look them up

[odd stratus]

[rose warren]

😬

[placid iron]

[dusky sundial]

If you want to be really safe you could implement some limit. But you should be fine :)

[sturdy dock]

const express = require("express")
const bodyParser = require("body-parser")

// Initialize express and define a port
const app = express()
const PORT = 3000

// Tell express to use body-parser's JSON parsing
app.use(bodyParser.json())


app.post("/", (req, res) => {
    if(req.headers.authorization == "peepee") {
        message.channel.send("Request recieved!");
    }
    console.log(req)
  console.log(req.body) // Call your action on the request here
  res.status(200).end() // Responding is important
})

// Start express on the defined port
app.listen(PORT, () => console.log(`🚀 Server running on port ${PORT}`))```
Hey could someone take a look as to why my webserver isn't recieving any post requests? Thanks :)

I tried using an API tester online and it worked when I pointed it to my webserver so not sure why it's not working with top.gg

[dusky sundial]

#site-status message
This might have something to do with it? Perhaps

[sturdy dock]

hmm maybe, i usually use the API to poll for votes and it went down today

but i tried using webhooks earlier, same issue

[lyric mountain]

try using apitester to send a post request

[sturdy dock]

so probably not topgg

[sturdy dock]

I did, it worked

[lyric mountain]

so it's not an issue on ur side

[sturdy dock]

does the code look okay?

[lyric mountain]

idk, but if u did receive apitester you're fine

[sturdy dock]

hmm ok

topgg supports ports right?

that aren't 80/8080

[solemn latch]

yeah?

[sturdy dock]

weird...

[solemn latch]

why is that weird

[sturdy dock]

apitester works, but not top.gg

on my express server

i posted code above

[mighty ember]

how would i have my bot send a message when someone votes?

[opal plank]

rookie numbers

[rose warren]

my command call logs db is 1.5 million rows 😂

[rose warren]

Oh nice

[opal plank]

14 mil in db

[rose warren]

lmao

[opal plank]

lol

[rose warren]

Why do you store them?

[opal plank]

identification

[rose warren]

Why not use fetch?

[opal plank]

cuz its not discord

its twitch

[rose warren]

Ah

[opal plank]

my bot works on both platforms

well, one of them at least

twitch doesnt have any sort of user info

[stark abyss]

I have a question, I need to make a "reset command" lets say. I want to change everyone's x variable to 0. This is like 100ish users and would probably grow more, so should I just use a for loop or set interval and do it because it's too many request for database to handle?

[opal plank]

you can just let the database handle

no need for loops

sql would be easy

UPDATE table SET X = 0 WHERE id IS NOT NULL

that'll run on all entries

[stark abyss]

oh

[opal plank]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

thats SQL/PG syntax btw

so you gotta check your own db

[stark abyss]

lol my dumbass was gonna set all user's one by one

[opal plank]

yeah, dont

[stark abyss]

ok

[rose warren]

You don't want to do all 14mil 1 by 1 @opal plank? 🤔

[opal plank]

wdym?

[rose warren]

jk

[stark abyss]

lol

[opal plank]

oh, hell naw

the identificaiton table ALONE is almost 3GB

the user objects are massive

[thorny flume]

Listening to events on the Db class has been deprecated and will be removed in the next major version.

[opal plank]

i store a SHIT TON of data

[thorny flume]

help

[rose warren]

What VPS specs are you running?

[opal plank]

1 sec

[rose warren]

Mine struggles sometimes

[opal plank]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725234999770742825/746960319150293212/unknown.png

i pulled about 94% of twitch's globall traffic with this bad boy

around 4 million viewers chatting at once

[rose warren]

Where do you host?

[opal plank]

let me check if i have some old gifs

good question

dunno the host name

i think its googles

[thorny flume]

Listening to events on the Db class has been deprecated and will be removed in the next major version.

[opal plank]

server costs about 450 per month iirc

[thorny flume]

help .-.

[opal plank]

for me its free cuz im not the one who pays for it

¯_(ツ)_/¯

its true tho

[rose warren]

Mysql eats up my CPU

[opal plank]

this is about 2.7 million users logged at once chatting

this is 3.6 million

[rose warren]

💀

[opal plank]

@earnest phoenix can tell you how much that shit abused twitch with the connections

he was in voice chat here watching this bad boy legit login 100k channels in over 30 seconds

[placid iron]

how do you log the messages?

is it web scraping or with the api

[opal plank]

me?

[placid iron]

yes

[opal plank]

API

twitch has what i consider possible some of the worst apis i ever seen

[placid iron]

i assume not with eventsub because that has a limit of 10,000 subscriptions and 100k channels is more than 10k

[opal plank]

not quite

i clustered it

what you see there is 87 different tokens

all clustered via my custom IPC cluster

[placid iron]

oh lmao

[stark abyss]

Okay how do I do this in postgres:
Update set clanusers donation = 0
WHERE claninfo due = 2
I want to set all users (in clanusers) donation to 0 if the due (in claninfo) is 2

[placid iron]

is it one twitch app though?

[opal plank]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/655288842433200129/768138727989313596/unknown.png

[placid iron]

UPDATE clanusers SET donation = 0 WHERE claninfo = 2

[opal plank]

no

all this was done in typescript

using a custom lib i made for caching

[stark abyss]

oh i see

[placid iron]

mmm. so how did you get the 87 different tokens?

[stark abyss]

except the due variable in the claninfo table

[opal plank]

multiple accounts

[placid iron]

oh lol

did you have to create those manually?

[opal plank]

theres nothing in TOS that says i cant have multiple bots to split the workload and cluster/shard it

yeah, you cant automate creation of accounts

THATS against tos

[placid iron]

i assumed so lol

[opal plank]

they were all proxied too

[placid iron]

damn, that is a lot of work i guess

[opal plank]

so it wasnt all being done in a single IP

cuz otherwise that'd fuck up good time

yeah, that was one of my biggest projects

being able to fetch legit 95% of twitchs global viewers is an insane task

was one hell of an experience for clustering and large scale development though

i learned a lot

[stark abyss]

UPDATE clanusers SET donation = 0 WHERE claninfo.due = 1
ERROR: syntax error at or near "0"

[placid iron]

definitely, and better you than me. i dont think i could do that with my current experience

[opal plank]

you're trying to squeeze every single bit of performance when you get at this scale, cuz it stacks, and QUICK

[placid iron]

oh yeah

[opal plank]

i used a promisifed IPC pipe between all slaves(processes) to assign channels to eachother

one central controller managing all of them and dispatching events

[mighty ember]

who would i have my bot send a message when someone votes?

[placid iron]

what type is the donation field? are you sure it is integer?

[lyric mountain]

you what?

[mighty ember]

😕

[opal plank]

do you even have an approved bot?

[placid iron]

@opal plank those words just go over my head tbh

[stark abyss]

yeah

bigInt

[opal plank]

its complicated stuff trust me, i had a rough time

[mighty ember]

how

[placid iron]

lmao

[mighty ember]

not who

[lyric mountain]

how what

[opal plank]

you have approved bot or no?

[mighty ember]

nope

[lyric mountain]

ah, webhooks then

[opal plank]

then you cant

[mighty ember]

why not?

[lyric mountain]

because u need the token

[opal plank]

you need a bot approved to be able to recieve events

not even token

[mighty ember]

i mean when someone votes for the server

[opal plank]

webhooks dont need token

[lyric mountain]

oh, yeah

[placid iron]

@stark abyss hmmm, im not sure why there is a syntax error then

[lyric mountain]

forgot that

[opal plank]

you dont have access to the webhooks tab

nor can anyone vote for ur bot

cuz, yknow, not approved

oh, servers

[opal plank]

webhooks

check #topgg-api

[stark abyss]

@placid iron to like use a different table you go <tablename>.<variable> right?

[opal plank]

check channel topic

[placid iron]

ive never used foreign tables unfortunately so i cant help you there

[stark abyss]

okay ty

[mighty ember]

how do i make a webhook? i don't know how to program it

[opal plank]

you NEED programming to do it, or pay someone to do it for you

[mighty ember]

i know how to program, but not how to make a webhook

[opal plank]

then i can foward you the docs

[mighty ember]

okay

[opal plank]

https://github.com/top-gg/node-sdk

use this

and

https://github.com/top-gg/node-sdk#webhook-server

this

[mighty ember]

can webhooks give roles?

[opal plank]

not without a bot

no

[lyric mountain]

no, webhooks will only send u "X dude just voted"

nothing more

[opal plank]

you can have a bot give roles when the webhook triggers tho

you'd host the bot WITH the webhook

[mighty ember]

what's node-sdk?

[opal plank]

both together

[stable nimbus]

me who uses the deprecated since it still works

[opal plank]

its the package to use

you dont NEED it, but its good to use it

technically you just need express or some other webserver module

[mighty ember]

i thought that was java

[humble rampart]

Hi

[opal plank]

nah, its javascript

but theres a java module iirc

[mighty ember]

i only know how to program python

[opal plank]

theres that too

flask and something else

let me grab it rq

[placid iron]

use aiohttp smh

[mighty ember]

PM me for it

[opal plank]

@mighty ember https://docs.top.gg/libraries/python/

here

[mighty ember]

thanks

[opal plank]

np

[mighty ember]

what happens when the bot is approved that allows me to use top.gg things?

i really do not want to try to make a webhook

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[opal plank]

you too

[opal plank]

you NEED a webhook for servers, no other way around it

the role thing you dont need an approved bot

you can have a private bot for just your server

[mighty ember]

what is the difference of a webhook and bot?

why won't a bot work?

[opal plank]

webhook is something LISTENING for incoming events (aka, in this case, votes)

a bot is a robot that reacts and does stuff, basically commands or something in that regard

[stark abyss]

webhook can't send messages right is that what you said?

[opal plank]

it can yeah, but for simplicity sake, im explaining it very curdely

[mighty ember]

there's a different way to program bots too

which could check for stuff

[opal plank]

indeed, but thats beyond the point

[stark abyss]

oh i see

[mighty ember]

i just can't make a webhook

[opal plank]

u can

u just dont want to

[mighty ember]

you need a website or something

[opal plank]

you dont

the examples in the docs literally give you an example

you can use your home adress

and host the bot yourself

or, webhook*

[placid iron]

yeah but if you have a dynamic ip then things gonna be annoying

[outer perch]

I can't seem to find on the internet, how do I use the built-in embed builders?

[mighty ember]

where?

[lyric mountain]

in the docs...

[earnest phoenix]

g

[mighty ember]

where in the docs?

[lyric mountain]

after the beginning and before the end

like, just read it as a whole

[mighty ember]

usually, you don't read the whole docs

[opal plank]

literally in the docs that i sent you

[lyric mountain]

but since ur starting from scratch, u should

[mighty ember]

you wouldn't read the entire discord.py docs

[stark abyss]

UPDATE clanusers 
SET clanusers.donation = 45 
FROM claninfo 
WHERE claninfo.due = 2

ERROR: column "clanusers" of relation "clanusers" does not exist
LINE 2: SET clanusers.donation = 45
would relation be something that both table has?

[lyric mountain]

I would if I were starting

[outer perch]

👆🏻

[opaque seal]

Can I pass an async function to .call ?

shardsManager.broadcastEval(`(${sendRegisteredVoteNotification}).call(this, ...args)`)

async function sendRegisteredVoteNotification...

[mighty ember]

it's VERY long

[placid iron]

try removing the clanusers.

[mighty ember]

i didn't really get much help here, bye

[stark abyss]

dang it worked ty so much

[placid iron]

np 👌

[lyric mountain]

did u ever heard about "Core Java"?

literally java bible

about 4kg of paper

[stark abyss]

fr let me look it up

literally the core so makes sense

[outer perch]

can someone freaking tell me how do I use the embed builders?

[solemn latch]

djs?

https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/embeds.html#embeds

[drifting wedge]

with open('config.json', 'r') as config:
    botStatus = config["botStatus"]
    token = config["token"]
    ipcKey = config["ipcKey"]
    shard_count = config["shard_count"]```

says object not scriptable

[outer perch]

no, I think it was Not Erwin who said you could do it another way without using D.js'

[solemn latch]

yeah, using objects, not the embed builder

[outer perch]

AH, that

how to?

[solemn latch]

I dont remember most of the formatting tbh

[earnest phoenix]

json.load the buffer and it'll be a dict.

[outer perch]

@opal plank how to Embed through objects?

[drifting wedge]

mhm

got it

ty

[solemn latch]

most of its straight forward from the looks of it
https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js/blob/8a7abc9f06d44bf693e35a615bb6ba2c3eb1d6e7/src/structures/MessageEmbed.js#L265

[earnest phoenix]

there is no sign up button

[outer perch]

[solemn latch]

its just an object with various properties

[opal plank]

same as payload from the api dosc

[outer perch]

k

[drifting wedge]

    ipc = ipc.Server(secret_key=ipcKey)
TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'bot'``` error with running discord.ext.ipc

am not running it in a class

[solemn latch]

oh here it is https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-object

[opal plank]

{embed: {
description: '',
image: {url: ''},
fields: [{value:'', name:'', inline: true}]
}}

like that

[outer perch]

ty

hehe, new interface

wait, Embed's a type, right?

so maybe I don't need an interface

[slate oyster]

Let's all have a SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING PARTY!

[earnest phoenix]

It's pretty self-explanatory, you need to pass the Bot object

[drifting wedge]

like client.ipc?

[earnest phoenix]

no what

the bot object itself

[drifting wedge]

lol

uhh

in the params?

[earnest phoenix]

class Bot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs):
        self.ipc = ipc.Server(self, ...)  # self is the bot instance

# or

bot = commands.Bot(...)
bot.ipc = ipc.Server(bot, ...)

[drifting wedge]

OHHHHHHHHHHHH

alr

in the docs their example is in a class

so thats why

ty

tysm @earnest phoenix

[lyric mountain]

Ngl, it's the best ever documentation I've ever seem

It explains to minimal details everything

With examples, images, etc

Sadly it's paid

I once borrowed it from my teacher to research for my graduation proj

[stark abyss]

UPDATE clanusers 
SET donation = 0
FROM claninfo 
WHERE claninfo.due = 2```
So this doesn't return an error but but all donation is set to 0 even if claninfo due isn't 2

nice

[lyric mountain]

Try using aliases instead of raw columns

[stark abyss]

what does that mean

[lyric mountain]

UPDATE c.clanusers SET c.donation = 0 FROM claninfo c WHERE c.due = 2

[opal plank]

kill it before it reproduces please

[misty sigil]

ok erwin’t

[lyric mountain]

Erlose

[quartz kindle]

how are you linking clanusers to claninfo?

[stark abyss]

oh okay let me try that

[quartz kindle]

because that query is literally doing "update a where b = c" but b and c have no relation to a

so it gets all from a

[lyric mountain]

I believe those are all fields of claninfo

Like, please

[stark abyss]

i haven't linked it to anything

[lyric mountain]

Don't tell me those are individual tables

[stark abyss]

i see that's my problem

they are

[lyric mountain]

[quartz kindle]

clanusers is one table, claninfo is another table right?

[stark abyss]

yes

[quartz kindle]

you want to update donations of a specific user based on what?

how is the user linked to the clan?

[stark abyss]

with var "clan"

[quartz kindle]

no like

[lyric mountain]

Column, plz

[quartz kindle]

how do you know which user belongs to which clan

does clan have something like an owner id? does a user own a clan?

or does the user have a clan id?

[stark abyss]

there is clan id

and users belong to that primary key called "clan"

does that make any sense?

[quartz kindle]

nope

[stark abyss]

[lament rock]

I'd have indexed user ID's as primary key unless users can be in multiple clans and then have the clan ID be a secondary key so that you can get user clan relationships quickly and also filter by all users in a clan.

Anyways, you're supposed to join the two tables on the clan ID

[stark abyss]

clanusers id is discord user id, and clan is a clan id

[lyric mountain]

No, please no

[quartz kindle]

ok so thats user

[lyric mountain]

Don't tell me that's mysql

[stark abyss]

postgres?

[lyric mountain]

Oh thank u

[lament rock]

There's nothing wrong with MySQL?

[quartz kindle]

so a user can only have 1 clan right?

[stark abyss]

yes

[quartz kindle]

and you want to check if that clan is due

[lyric mountain]

What's that manager btw?

[quartz kindle]

so you would do something like ```sql
UPDATE
clanusers,
claninfo
SET
clanusers.donation = 0
WHERE
claninfo.id = clanusers.clan
AND
claninfo.due = 2

idk the exact syntax for postgres

[stark abyss]

oh

[lyric mountain]

Ah, pgadmin4

[stark abyss]

okay thank you

[lyric mountain]

There is actually, many things wrong

It's kinda niche I'd say

[lament rock]

Go on, then. Explain why I shouldn't use it

[quartz kindle]

there are a few articles about it

[lyric mountain]

Nah, too lazy

Those kind of discussions take too much time

[quartz kindle]

something about collations, data loss, error swallowing, allowing unsafe operations

etc

not being RFC compliant by default

requiring additional configuration to behave like a "normal" database

[gilded olive]

Stole from an tag but

TL;DR: MySQL is a bad database. Don't use it unless you have literally no other option.

Why shouldn't I use MySQL?

 - MySQL has no transactional DDL. This means that if you fuck up creating a table in the middle of a migration, you cannot rollback easily.
 - MySQL has a lot of security issues. New zero-day vulnerabilities are found regularly.
 - MySQL is owned by Oracle.
 - MySQL is slow. It beats Postgres etc at some things, but once you move beyond basic queries it begins to slog.
 - MySQL disconnects you randomly. Unless you setup your connection specially, it will break regularly.
 - MySQL allows all kinds of insane data to be inserted. '0000-00-00' is valid in MySQL.
 - MySQL is not ANSI compliant. You have to turn it on; even then it isn't fully compliant.
 - MySQL has no feature advantage over other databases; PostgreSQL has many more useful features (such as RETURNs).

There is no reason to use MySQL over PostgreSQL, or even sqlite3. See also:

[quartz kindle]

yeah those were the two articles i've read

[lyric mountain]

Erwin iirc, right?

[lament rock]

data loss is concerning and valid. I still believe people shouldn't be told the database they're using isn't a valid option considering there isn't a good way to discern the difference between MariaDB and MySQL

Proprietary and closed source software also doesn't mean that it's bad

[lyric mountain]

Plus you can import mysql ddl into postgre

So migrating is kinda easy

[quartz kindle]

there was also some complaint about it having multiple storage engines and how that made it all fucked up

[earnest phoenix]

but it's oracle so it's automatically bad

[lament rock]

Tell that to a bunch of professional work places and educational establishments who unironically use java

[lyric mountain]

Java is good, oracle is bad

[lament rock]

Debatable

[quartz kindle]

oraculus rift, java the hutt

[lyric mountain]

Not at all, oracle could've been such a good name

But they threw it to the mud

[lament rock]

I'd say the only thing java has going for it is type safety. Even then, most langs have that

[earnest phoenix]

oraculus rift: a new 24hz journey

why? because we're oracle.

[lament rock]

24hz

[earnest phoenix]

you also have to provide your social security number and your DNA sample before buying

So for some reason, my express is being stinky and not logging anything to console on this POST request

[rose warren]

PostgreSQL more efficient than MYSQL?

[blissful coral]

https://i.imgur.com/lxy1yDn.png

https://i.imgur.com/u5LM0Et.png

nothing in console

[lyric mountain]

Isn't site having issues?

[blissful coral]

Not for testing webhooks

I asked staff

[lament rock]

make sure the req method you're using in postman/whatever is actually using post

[blissful coral]

nginx

It has worked before I had a problem with mongo and had to redo it

But it is probably a site error right?

the mongo problem happened around the same time as the site went down^

[lament rock]

idk too much about nginx. If the rest of the site served by express works, idk

[blissful coral]

Idk what is going on

The button used to like make a little push when it was clicked right?

[quartz kindle]

ya know, 24 fps is the so called "cinematic" framerate :^)

[blissful coral]

Hm

Inspect is getting a can't read content 'textContent' of null

[lament rock]

BREAKING NEWS: Oculus, Microsoft, HTC and Valve all push a firmware update limiting headset refresh rates to 24Hz. In an interview with them, they all said: "We wanted to give our users a 'cinematic' and 'immersive' experience."

[quartz kindle]

ex dee

[lament rock]

Guess I should have also tossed in nolo but whatever

[broken matrix]

I cant edit my bot page did they move the button

this is all i see

[quartz kindle]

they are working on many changes

so just wait a day or two for things to be normal again

Alright thank you

UPDATE clanusers

in case anybody wanted to know, ^this worked

[quartz kindle]

yes, now it makes sense

[mighty ember]

is anyone willing to give me a sample bot program to do something when someone votes for the server?

the docs are very weird

[snow urchin]

Since nobody helped earlier, i shall ask again

Why is this not working? The error is coming from data.append

[lyric mountain]

Node version?

[empty vault]

hmmm

i guess..uh

there is command which is error you may have to fix it

[stark abyss]

Table clanusers - clan, id, donation
Tabel claninfo - clan, due, fee
I want to subtract fee from donation each user (id) has.

UPDATE clanusers 
SET donation = 0 
FROM claninfo
WHERE claninfo.due = 2
AND
claninfo.clan = clanusers.clan```

This is how it sets the donation value on all `id` ig. Would I have to do this one by one, or is there a convenient way to do it?

[empty vault]

@stark abyss i dont know exactly but i guess u have to do this one by one..idk maybe

[stark abyss]

that's what I am guessing as well

[empty vault]

did u try by using one by one

[stark abyss]

no

[empty vault]

hmmm

[stark abyss]

wait no there must be some way

tried ```sudo chown -R mongodb:mongodb /var/lib/mongodb

sudo service mongod restart```

Didn't work

[crimson vapor]

bro

[limber flume]

[crimson vapor]

no

[stark abyss]

dang I am the only one

[crimson vapor]

probably not

[blissful coral]

What am I looking for here

[crimson vapor]

honestly a reason why it failed

bad config or can't bind to port are common

[blissful coral]

then you have wrong command

[crimson vapor]

no you need to add the status mongod

[blissful coral]

https://i.imgur.com/jGA7ZzD.png

or do that

[crimson vapor]

bro im just so bad at linux

[blissful coral]

LMFAO

[crimson vapor]

you don't understand

it isn't too hard

run the mongod command the same way

that the thing does

same thing

has happened a lOT

dealing with json files

[lyric mountain]

If u list all files in the folder what does it output?

[drifting wedge]

wdym all the folders?

[lyric mountain]

Not folders, files

Like, get all files in the folder

[drifting wedge]

ls?

[lyric mountain]

And print

[drifting wedge]

whats the code for files?

[placid iron]

Uh

How do you run the script

[drifting wedge]

Ls gives folders

what about files?

[placid iron]

Ls gives files

[lyric mountain]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3207219/how-do-i-list-all-files-of-a-directory

[tribal siren]

i think you gotta do with open('../folder name/config.json', 'r') as config

[lyric mountain]

Why go up one folder?

[placid iron]

Your python is mostly just not in the same directory at run time

[tribal siren]

well how many folders are there

[drifting wedge]

ls doesnt show the config file

[placid iron]

Just set the environment path to the files location

[lyric mountain]

Then it's changing structure during runtime

[drifting wedge]

so what can i do?

[placid iron]

This is pog

Then just have everything relative to that files location

Which is probably what you got airway

Already

You don't need the name == main part

Get used to it, happens from time to time

[crystal wigeon]

yo

lol

[lyric mountain]

Just connected successfully

[latent heron]

What do you guys think about this? Trying to find a more user-friendly method of getting help for bot commands.

Instead of having to force a user to type the name of a command, I could present them with a list of types of commands and then if they choose, it gives them more details.

Is this a good route, or should I stick to making the user type the command name through the help command instead?

This is gonna be a pain. Moving from Maria to Postgres and queries by default lowercase table names and column names. Imported my old DB and everything got lowercased. Guess I'll just have to rename everything to snake case and change all of my client code which uses sql.

does mongodb handle large collectrions well?

for finding docs

and how long it takes

[latent heron]

what kind of size is your project?

is your bot going to be doing small DB stuff or is it going to need scalability/large-end tasks?

the database type you use will be really dependent on the size and scope of your project

not that big

only a few hundred docs

the ad is from top.gg

[stark abyss]

lol

[uncut swallow]

[uncut swallow]

xd

[stark abyss]

Don’t get me wrong it’s pretty nice I read it

[uncut swallow]

ehh no the ad in top.gg is aleatory

[stark abyss]

Didn’t you write the code

[snow urchin]

source.pause is a function from data.append

[stark abyss]

It’s saying it’s not

If you actually read the error

If you are 100% sure it is an function you are likely not using it right

[uncut swallow]

what is shards??

[stark abyss]

I don’t know much about them, but i think it’s like a server. I think of it as a server if you have like 10000 server you are going to have to get more shards in order to have the bot be efficient. This is what I personally understand it as I could be wrong

[lusty quest]

https://discordjs.guide/sharding/

[lusty quest]

2500

[uncut swallow]

oh

[stark abyss]

I wasn’t sure about the number that’s why I just made it 10k

[tribal siren]

shards is when your bot divides into more bots. each bot is a shard, and the servers amount gets divided within the shards

[uncut swallow]

ohh

[lusty quest]

not really into more bots, into mutiple processes

[stark abyss]

Yeah I was gonna say like copy

Invisible copy

[uncut swallow]

but the shards is good or not?

[stark abyss]

They are good if you have large amount of servers

[lusty quest]

if you are at 2000 guilds yes otherwise no

[stark abyss]

If you don’t have large amount of server u don’t need it

would be probably easyer to use the id instead of username, since you can just fetch it then (if you use js, idk in py or other langs)

discord.js ?

yes

[barren solstice]

ight lemme see

[pale vessel]

then do i < 10?

what NPM library u using

you forgot semi columns

[pale vessel]

what

[tardy hornet]

[pale vessel]

@tardy hornet if you want to limit it to ten then use i < 10 instead of i < money.length

?

Yes

oki, now i want it not to send the top 10 of all

just the top 01 in the server

[pale vessel]

then money[0]?

[barren solstice]

ight i thought it was something with my code XD

yea, is common for users who are new to this, just add proper error handling and you are fine

[pale vessel]

you need to make sure that money is already sorted though

[tardy hornet]

did that just to test, its giving me that it has to be less than 2000 length

[earnest phoenix]

Hey i have an object in my guild config model with some properties inside it. I would like to delete it and its properties from all documents. Note: on some documents it doesn't exist. How would i do that use mongoose?

[dreamy yoke]

rare question but can webhooks post in announcements channel and still get published (as in channels following that channel will still get posts from the webhook)

[lusty quest]

use updateMany({filter},{query})

or did you just want to delete all documents including certain stuff?

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah i tried to updateMany and made that object null. But it still remains in the document. Is there a way to completely it?

[lusty quest]

maybe this helps https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18553946/remove-sub-document-from-mongo-with-mongoose

wait nvm this is for sub documents

look into deleteMany() it might be the correct way

[earnest phoenix]

ill try to explain a bit more. I have this object in my guildconfig documents. I want it to be removed from all of the documents. Only this object called automod not the documents.

I think i can .find all of them. Then delete the objects with node and update them 🤔

[lusty quest]

the answer is maybe the one you want https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40588709/how-to-remove-object-from-array-using-mongoose

just use updateMany instead

[barren solstice]

fixed it turns out there was something wrong with tht library i used another one

[lusty quest]

strange, ive get this errors sometimes from one API bcs the API decides to shit itself

[earnest phoenix]

$pull only works with arrays.

[lusty quest]

is automod not inside an array?

did you tryed $unset?

https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/update/unset/

[earnest phoenix]

Unset seems to work, tysm 😄

[near stratus]

hol on
JS allows unblocked if ?

[amber quiver]

wdym

[near stratus]

if(true)
//do this
instead of ```js
if(true){
//do this
}

[amber quiver]

ah yes

it alloes

I think

allows

[near stratus]

lemme test it myself

[amber quiver]

ok

coz I think its worked in my other bot project

I didnt knew this too

I saw it on stack overdlow I think

and I think its actually worked on my other bot... so weird

[near stratus]

It works on my test too

[amber quiver]

so why it isnt working

in my code?

[barren solstice]

discord.js v12?

[amber quiver]

yes

I think so

[barren solstice]

            .setColor('#0099ff')
            .setTitle('text')
            .setDescription('text')
            .setThumbnail('')
            .addFields(
                { name: 'name' },
                { name: 'name' },
                { name: 'name' },
            )
            .setTimestamp();
        message.author.send(testembed);```

here

[amber quiver]

I dont need reaction

[barren solstice]

just delete it then

[amber quiver]

but still' I want my code to work coz its very weird

I cant find the problem

[near stratus]

@amber quiver could you send the code

[amber quiver]

yes

[near stratus]

like paste here

[amber quiver]

client.on("message", message => {
  if (message.content === `${prefix}clear`) {
     if (!message.member.hasPermission("MANAGE_MESSAGES")) 
      var embedMessageError = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
      .setColor('#FF0000')
      .setTitle('ERROR')
      .addField('OOPS', 'It\'s look like you have no permission to do that!')
      message.channel.send(embedMessageError)
      .then(msg => {
    msg.delete({ timeout: 5000 })
   })
   if (message.member.hasPermission("MANAGE_MESSAGES")) 
   var embedMessagesuccesful = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
     .setColor('#FF5800')
     .setTitle('succesful command')
     .addField('a^clear', 'the messages got deleted!')
       message.channel.send(embedMessagesuccesful)
       .then(msg => {
     msg.delete({ timeout: 5000 })
    })
  }
})```

[near stratus]

k

lemme see

[amber quiver]

and also, when Im trying to catch errors in the code, the bot is still stopping

even tho Im using .catch(console.error) or try and catch

[near stratus]

When I write your code manually I don't get any error but when I copy it it shows error

[amber quiver]

wow

what

how

when you wrote the code'=, it didnt show any errors?

and when you wrote it manually, it shows error

[near stratus]

yeah

lol

[amber quiver]

why

wth

[near stratus]

lemme modify it little bit

[cinder patio]

You need to put the code in the if statement in a code block

[amber quiver]

I do

[cinder patio]

  ...
}```

[amber quiver]

look closely

[cinder patio]

You don't
