development

[river panther]

that idk, i am java and javascript

[modern granite]

haha

okay

KeyError: Is the guild id

I guess

[pale vessel]

prefixes[guildID] does not exist

[modern granite]

yeah

but

the code works

there is no problem

[pale vessel]

what do you mean?

[modern granite]

this is only in the console

[pale vessel]

check the file

are you sure?

[pale vessel]

log the guild ID

[pale vessel]

and check if that exists in the prefixes.json file

It's KeyError

[modern granite]

I checked

[pale vessel]

The property (guild ID) doesn't exist

[modern granite]

there is no guild id like that there

idk where the error comes from

[pale vessel]

That's why it errored

[modern granite]

how can I fix that?

or at least why is it even calling that guild id, if it's not in the prefix.json?

[pale vessel]

you never handled it

it'll still call it if it doesn't exist

use dict.get() instead to avoid KeyError and provide a fallback prefix

[modern granite]

okay

thank you

[spare goblet]

alternatives to rabbitmq in order to facilitate communication between multiple processes in the same server? ping if you have ideas

[young flame]

hmmm

[drifting shell]

What's wrong with rabbitmq in your instance?

Pusher can be an option

[spare goblet]

i don't wanna set up rabbit mq

[young flame]

usher

[spare goblet]

rabbit mq is so annoying to setup

[young flame]

Pusher*

I can help lol

[spare goblet]

it's such a heavy thing for such a smol thing

[drifting shell]

I understand the pain :painsive:

[spare goblet]

is it pain to setup too

?

[drifting shell]

no

its really easy

its just paid for past 200k requests

What're you using RMQ for?

[young flame]

sorry iara I cant help

[spare goblet]

okay wait

200k requests per what

per day? per year? per

[drifting shell]

month

I think

[spare goblet]

because that might be enough

wait lemme do math

[young flame]

my fingers are locking up because its cold

[drifting shell]

oh ok no

its per day

[young flame]

so I can't give suggestions

[spare goblet]

oh yeah i have enough then LMAOO

[young flame]

[drifting shell]

past that pusher is $49 / million a day

https://pusher.com/channels/pricing

[spare goblet]

i only have to do 1 message per hour per cluster + 1 message per day per cluster + 1 message per week per cluster

which would be
24 * 70 + 70 + 10 / 7

which is less than 2k

STONKS

[drifting shell]

[spare goblet]

thanks smaule ily

[drifting shell]

stonks

ily iara

@spare goblet I understand your pain with RMQ, its docs are really awful too

advantage is its free, but its just

[spare goblet]

@drifting shell it

s

not gonna work for me

only allows 100 concurrent connections

which means per cluster i have to use at least one connection right

im already at close to 70 clusters

and at this rate of growth i only have 4 months before i reach 100 clusters

😭

[drifting shell]

😔

I mean, couldn't you join the clusters with an internal ws?

or even a webhook

[cinder patio]

IPC?

[drifting shell]

@spare goblet

[spare goblet]

terrible idea

point of doing this in the first place is NOT using a webhook

[drifting shell]

probably

yeah kinda defeats the purpose of pusher

[spare goblet]

[drifting shell]

what're you sending the messages for?

[spare goblet]

roleincome

honestly at this rate

i'm ready to just

setInterval(() => {
})

this crap

but scalability

[drifting shell]

hmmm, i have another idea tho and im pretty sure this has definitely crossed your mind

in java you can do

executorService.scheduleAtFixedRate(runnable, delay, frequency)

[spare goblet]

isnt that setinterval

[drifting shell]

kind of, but not quite

[spare goblet]

because javascript works with singular thread

it's not scalable at all

[drifting shell]

yeah thats why js is kinda stinky

but, you could just set the task to run after a delay period, and then get it to rerun again at the desired period

[eternal osprey]

,hello,Muted how would i remove the comma's from a string like this?

 if(message.content.startsWith("!add")){
    const result =  message.content.slice(4).split(/ +/);
    const z24 = message.content.slice(auth.prefix.length).split(/ +/);
    const z25 = z24.slice(z24.length)
   
    fs.appendFileSync("./keywords1.json", result + " " + z25 + "\n");
    }```

[drifting shell]

remove it entirely?

[spare goblet]

as i said the reason why i wanted to do this in the first place is to avoid it

[drifting shell]

replaceAll("," "")

i know

is it just JS's lack of multi threading that's making you need 70 clusters?

[spare goblet]

no, it's because of how large my bot is

i could probably change to like 30 clusters

or 40

[drifting shell]

yeah I just meant like why does it need 70 clusters, if you know what's actually causing your need for it

[eternal osprey]

that didn't work

[drifting shell]

you're trying to remove , right?

[eternal osprey]

yeah

and repalcve it with a normal space

[drifting shell]

oh

did it not remove the ","?

[spare goblet]

it needs clusters to split the load

also pusher can't publish directly from code?

[eternal osprey]

it said that it wasn't a function

[warm marsh]

It's a method.

",Hello,Goodbye".replace(/,/g, " ")

Same with replaceAll

[whole coral]

Guys, how come I got this error?

[cinder patio]

replaceAll is not working cause it's not supported by node.js yet

use replace with a regular expression

[drifting shell]

pusher.trigger('my-channel', 'my-event', {
  "message": "hello world"
});
``` ![Hmmm](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/768218192975101982.webp?size=128 "Hmmm")

[spare goblet]

oh

trigger is publish?

[dusky lagoon]

 message.channel.send(pages[0]).then( async message => {
            await message.react('◀️');
            await message.react('▶️');
            await message.react('🗑️');
            var collector = message.createReactionCollector(
                
                // only collect left and right arrow reactions from the message author
                (reaction, user) => ['◀️', '▶️'].includes(reaction.emoji.name) && user.id === author.id,

                reaction.emoji.name === '◀️' ? currentIndex -= 1 : currentIndex += 1;
                if (currentIndex < 0) {
                    currentIndex += 1;

                if (reaction.content === '🗑️') {
                    message.reactions.removeAll().catch(error => console.error('Failed to clear reactions: ', error));
                }``` ok so i added ```js
if (reaction.content === '🗑️') {
                    message.reactions.removeAll().catch(error => console.error('Failed to clear reactions: ', error));
                }``` im trying to remove all the reactions with the trash can only im stupid so can someone help me

[pale vessel]

reaction.content doesn't exist

you mean reaction.emoji.name?

[drifting shell]

@spare goblet for 37k servers albeit I know yours is like 6* that, my bot happily runs on 1 2vcpu vps

[dusky lagoon]

LETS TRY

@drifting shell what is your bot

[pale vessel]

amogus bot

[dusky lagoon]

couldnt find it

[whole coral]

#development message

[pale vessel]

just go to top.gg/user/id

[cinder patio]

You're trying to do something which requires 2-factor authorization

[lament rock]

some method you're trying to do is user account only

[dusky lagoon]

didnt work haha

[whole coral]

Does this applies to other servers too?

[humble wasp]

Can someone please fast write a give role code?

[whole coral]

This is the list of the servers that bot joined:

[lament rock]

reaction.emoji.name is correct. unicode emojis have the unicode in the reaction.emoji.name

Your issue is most likely a logical issue elsewhere

[pale vessel]

yeah, the filter function

you're not collecting the remove all reaction

probably, try again later

if that's your actual IP you should delete the screenshot

[fair fractal]

okay

[cinder patio]

It doesn't matter where you use it, your bot is not authorized to use the feature

What are you trying to do?

[spare goblet]

@drifting shell 1 2vcpu?

whats vcpu

my bot doesnt use that much resources tbh

[drifting shell]

virtual cpu

its not a dedi so its not dedicated cpui

[lament rock]

either 2 vCores or a server with 2 numa nodes

[spare goblet]

around 7-30% cpu steadily, 8 cores
around 30 gb of ram

[whole coral]

Ok I got it. thx

[spare goblet]

[earnest phoenix]

hi i would have a quick question.
how can i get the names of the guild rooms?
Here is my code

(guildCreate EVENT)

var channelsNumber = guild.channels.cache.filter(m => m.type === 'text').size;
  for (let i = 0; i <= channelsNumber; i++) {
    console.log(guild.channels.cache.name)
}```

[pseudo helm]

So what you are trying to do is console.log(); the guild name, which was added, right?

[pale vessel]

If you want to loop through the guilds to get the name, you can use collection.values() and a for loop or use collection.map()

[earnest phoenix]

i see how many text channels there are and i run a formal to write the name of those console log ba

[pseudo helm]

forEach would work aswell, i asume.

[pale vessel]

yeah

[lament rock]

code is hard to read on mobile.

or im just r word

[pale vessel]

which code?

[lament rock]

any

most likely just me being dumb

[pale vessel]

same here, the code block font in sans instead of monospace

[pseudo helm]

Unfortunately, i still don't understand what your problem is?

[earnest phoenix]

but then how can I do it now to write out the names of all the found text channels?

[pale vessel]

instead of using collection.size, use collection.map with the function to return the channel name (and index if you need that too)

[earnest phoenix]

sorry for my bad english

[earnest phoenix]

you will only need it once because it will be a database upload

[pseudo helm]

guilds.channels.cache.forEach(channel => console.log(channel.name));

This should work, if this is what you need.

[pale vessel]

E

[lament rock]

Not just that since they filter the guild for text channels

they need to forEach the filtered collection

[pseudo helm]

Sure.

[lament rock]

also, your casing for forEach was incorrect

[pseudo helm]

Explain me.

[pale vessel]

forEach

[lament rock]

not foreach

[pseudo helm]

Oh, typo, my bad.

[earnest phoenix]

thanks dude is perfect

[faint moth]

what is the problem

[pseudo helm]

Could you please make your font size a lil bigger, really hard to read.

[faint moth]

okay wait

[pale vessel]

seems fine on mobile

[pseudo helm]

Opening original file fixed it, no need.

[pale vessel]

Don't use dblapi.js since it's deprecated, use @top-gg/sdk

and make sure you provide the correct token

[faint moth]

this problem occurred yesterday

[marble juniper]

don't use dblapi.js

[faint moth]

I'm trying alright

@marble juniper

Same mistake

[sick fable]

My pp is smol

[faint moth]

const Discord = require('discord.js')

exports.run = async (client, message, args) => {

      let user = message.mentions.users.first() || message.author
      let author = message.author.tag

      const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
      .setDescription(`**<@${user.id}> İşte Avatarın!**`)
      .setColor(`RANDOM`)

@earnest phoenix

pp code

[zenith terrace]

why do all that when you can just do math.random

[marble juniper]

true

[cinder patio]

Lmao pp/900000000

So you want to do it based on the user's id

You could just get the first two numbers from the id, add them, and divide by 2

There are other ways to do it ofc

[icy fjord]

(node:25452) MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 message listeners added to [Client]. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit (Use node --trace-warnings ...to show where the warning was created)
How to fix

[cinder patio]

But basically if you joined early = you have a smaller pp

[pale vessel]

Lmao

[marble juniper]

this

[earnest phoenix]

Read the error

[marble juniper]

ids are not really random

computers don't make random numbers

its impossible

lol

truly random sources are for example when discord servers break

or when a windows update publishes

[cinder patio]

(Number(pp[0]) + Number(pp[1])) / 2

[marble juniper]

computers are not made to generate randomness

they can't generate randomness

its impossible for computers to do

even if it seems random
its technically not

[faint moth]

@earnest phoenix tr lol

@marble juniper bro

Is there a problem with jeans?

[marble juniper]

?

[faint moth]

s

[cinder patio]

nope, pp has to be a string

just don't parse it to an int

[pale vessel]

Okay what the hell.

[cinder patio]

Don't make it cm

make it inches

[pale vessel]

I can't take this seriously

[cinder patio]

My pp would be 4 inches rip

Multiply the result by 2.54

and you'll get cm

[zenith terrace]

same

[cinder patio]

Because that's how you convert inches to cm

[lament rock]

true random does not exist in the context of computers. Computers are designed to execute exact instructions. Anything led to make you believe otherwise is false. computers are able to seemingly generate random numbers by a concept called psuedo-randomness. In the case of languages offering random numbers, the logic behind those methods is that you have a seed which is what the math is based off of to present a number. Most seeds are the computer's Date time which updates constantly and would produce different outputs most of the time

[drifting shell]

is there a benefit to marking a web socket connection as AFK / idle?

[cinder patio]

I guess you can also add the third number and divide by 3

then you'll get slightly bigger pps

but also slightly smaller

[pale vessel]

i'm dying reading this

[cinder patio]

Just multiply by 2.54 what's the problem

[drifting shell]

is there a benefit to marking a web socket connection as AFK / idle? someone help

[cinder patio]

You'll still get relatively less than average pps

You can also do the smartest thing and store PP sizes in a database

so you don't have to do shit like this, just generate a random number if the user's PP size isn't in a database already

and put it in the database

[lament rock]

yes, you can set a timeout to destroy the socket connection if your intention is to preserve resources

[pale vessel]

but my pp will be forever short if it's stored in a db

[lament rock]

That was uncalled for

[cinder patio]

Maybe make the numbers increase over time

[pale vessel]

yes, growth

sounds good to me

[cinder patio]

lmao you'll make it stop after the 18th year

[pale vessel]

store the pp and timestamp

[slender thistle]

What the fuck are you people doing

[pale vessel]

i think you're on to something here

[cinder patio]

you don't even have to store the timestamp, use the user's account creation timestap

[zenith terrace]

I cannot take this convo seriously

[lament rock]

You don't need a database for this. You can do all of the math based on timestamps

[cinder patio]

Not really, your pp isn't a fixed length based on your date of birth

you'll need a random value

[river panther]

mhm, nice

was there any outcome?

https://tenor.com/view/dies-cat-dead-died-gif-13827091

@quartz kindle helo sir, big fan, long time no see, do you have an answer to this?^

[lusty quest]

lol its 8 in the morning for him

[river panther]

where does he live?

[lusty quest]

maybe he is at work or still sleeping

[river panther]

no no, its 5:51

17:51 is american

[lusty quest]

you are a bit confused right? USA use 12h format

[river panther]

WHAT

**WHAT?!(

the fuck

I HAVE BEEN TRICKED

MY WHOLE LIFE TIME WAS A LIE

[cinder patio]

There's no way it's 5 pm in russia

[lusty quest]

depends on the timezone you are, they got atleast 3 or so

moscow is at 13:54

[river panther]

[Math.floor(Math.random() * whateverarray.length)]

[cinder patio]

Math.floor(Math.random() * 100) - 1

[river panther]

breh, python is for the weak

am i right @slender thistle ?

because from 1 to 100 its 101 numbers

i mean, how do i explain

[burnt citrus]

Is doubts about webhooks allowed here?

[pale vessel]

no that's 1-98

[lament rock]

Do not make fun of languages

[cinder patio]

yeah 101 and +1

mb

[lament rock]

They all have their own uses

[marble juniper]

its actually against rules to have language wars

lol

[river panther]

breh, read the name development we can even help you with girl talking skills

[pale vessel]

you can use Math.ceil() and not use 101 - 1

[river panther]

all kind of development are allowed

[slender thistle]

I'm sceptic of JS with all the idiotic packages people made for fun

[river panther]

welp yes

[slender thistle]

I prefer not to waste time arguing which is best, however

[river panther]

but js looks better and it is funner

[slender thistle]

That's subjective

[river panther]

yes ig

[burnt citrus]

Ok, then pls tell me, I host my bot on heroku. So how will my webhook be like when I enter it in top.gg bot edit page?

[marble juniper]

rule number 4 c

[river panther]

wot?

[lament rock]

The skepticism is reasonable, but it still gets it's job done pretty efficiently depending on the developer's proficiency

[burnt citrus]

You know webhooks right?

[river panther]

what webhooks, discord or some other?

[solemn leaf]

Why complain, they are both high level languages

[burnt citrus]

@river panther webhooks to setup up vote notifications from top.gg

[marble juniper]

Do not discriminate/harass (hate speec, arguing, etc). This includes but not limited to:
c. Programming languages

[river panther]

ah, go to #topgg-api for it then ig

[lament rock]

Some people might like the more object oriented approach JS takes while python seems a bit more functional in contrast

[river panther]

we are just having a friendly discussion, which will develop our debating skills

[river panther]

we are just having a friendly discussion, which will develop our debating skills

read the name breh, #development

we are developing as one

[marble juniper]

smh

[burnt citrus]

That's the prob, no one is there, it's like ded... So I thought to come here, now here also... Omg

[river panther]

smp

shaking my pc

not pp

[marble juniper]

blocked

[solemn leaf]

Bruh

[marble juniper]

lol

[river panther]

breh

[solemn leaf]

Wtf

[river panther]

anyways, i go study, exams soon ;-;

i mean, day after tomorrow

[solemn leaf]

Nobody cares

[nimble kiln]

Good

[slender thistle]

Pretty much. Though, at this point I refuse to move away from Python because I'm too used to it

[solemn leaf]

This

[slender thistle]

No complaining really

[solemn leaf]

Same thing

[lament rock]

I feel the same about JS. I really wanted to try CS or Java, but I can't get into it. Java for understandable reasons, but CS is good

[slender thistle]

There isn't any complaining about languages, though. My personal preference is Python because that's what I've worked with for years, and at this point it's hard to get into another language that I can use primarily

[slender thistle]

Oh, C# feels like a godsend

Though, yeah, I don't feel like I was cut out to use it as my main language

[lament rock]

fair

[nimble kiln]

That's a good way to start

[slender thistle]

You usually want to refer to official documentation on top of "stealing" code

[river panther]

stole*

[nimble kiln]

With a timer

[zenith terrace]

steals code from stack overflow
so I got this code from the docs

[nimble kiln]

setInterval(function() { client.user.setPresence(...) }, 60000);

[slender thistle]

[nimble kiln]

ah yeah setinterval works too

Doing it every minute is perfectly fine

[lament rock]

milliseconds

[nimble kiln]

^here

The example is literally given there

you already have your "stolen code" (client.user.setPresence)

[nimble kiln]

Just put this around it

I would recommend putting it into your client.on('ready')-event so it doesnt error out when your bot is not logged in yet

nobody is gonna say anything when you do it every minute

[umbral zealot]

yeah discord presence every minute is fine.

[slender thistle]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/272764566411149314/604449094680707072/unknown.png

Do you mean this lol

Presence ratelimits are very lenient on top of that so doing it every minute is more of a common sense move

[astral crown]

So currently my discord bot is hosted on heroku but there's size limit of 500 MB. Is there any other platform where I can host my bot for free with no size limit?

[cinder patio]

no, there are always limits, even with paid hosts

[astral crown]

Is there any platform where I can store images and get my bot to send images from that when the user type a command? Like if I could upload my folder filled with images on google drive then it will save some space but could bot read the image from google drive or any suitable platform for that?

[leaden beacon]

can someone help me with this poll? if i place the question i want the bot to remove my questions after the polls is posted? anyone who willing to help me out?

[lyric mountain]

imgur, but do note that they remove less accessed images

for(let languages in obj){
    if(languages != "execute"){

       obj.aliases.push(...obj[languages].config.aliases)                 }
     }
}

[lyric mountain]

show the definition of "obj"

[lyric mountain]

the definition, not obj itself

[willow mirage]

wdym?

[lyric mountain]

like, where you do let obj = ...

[lyric mountain]

show that client.commands.set(name, obj)

like, what its doing

[willow mirage]

it is a collection bro

that saves commands function and configs

[lyric mountain]

ah ok

if you do console.log(obj) right before you push to the aliases what does it show?

[small tangle]

Is it considered a privacy breach if im implementing a command to count my Database documents to display the number of botusers?

Or is this information oke?

[nimble kiln]

So like the amount of users of all the guilds your bot is in?

Ok even if it's not that ^ it's fine. Because it's just a number

[small tangle]

Each user gets an unique db entry and i would count this number and display it

[nimble kiln]

yeah perfectly fine

[small tangle]

thanks

[leaden beacon]

anyone who willing to help me out? trying get t his poll to work when you have it setup it removes the messages you typed? 😄

[lyric mountain]

omfg why is that file so long?

[leaden beacon]

its with result

😄

[lyric mountain]

what is that lang?

like, programming with json?

[leaden beacon]

me?

[lyric mountain]

yes

[leaden beacon]

discord bot maker

lol

raw data

[lyric mountain]

we have a serious contest between bdfd and dbm

can't choose which one is worst

but anyway, where am I supposed to look?

[leaden beacon]

discord bot maker?

[lyric mountain]

that for all languages?

[willow mirage]

nvm fixed

[lyric mountain]

yes, like, why not just do javascript?

[willow mirage]

im trying to make multi -lang

[lyric mountain]

what was the issue?

                }

                if (reaction.emoji.name === '🗑️') {
                    message.reactions.removeAll().catch(error => console.error('Failed to clear reactions: ', error));
                }``` i added `reaction.users.remove(message.author.id)` so it removes the user reaction but instead it deletes the reaction that the bot added?? how can i fix this

[lyric mountain]

method not allowed means you're doing a GET request on a POST endpoint or the inverse

[lyric mountain]

the message author is the bot

use user.id instead

[dusky lagoon]

Sadly when i do that it just doesnt respond

[lyric mountain]

you start by showing index.js at line 180

[lyric mountain]

permission issue

[dusky lagoon]

Nope otherwise it would have given me a permission error

[lyric mountain]

@earnest phoenix you're trying to modify the webhook?

[icy fjord]

(node:20404) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: ReferenceError: db is not defined at Client.<anonymous> (\index.js:180:19) at Client.emit (events.js:327:22) Console error how to fix?

[lyric mountain]

I already answered

edit follow-up message?

like, webhooks are a one-way trip

you can't retrieve messages with it

ik

but still, webhooks are send-only

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/webhook

[icy fjord]

how i make this

[earnest phoenix]

Read the error db is not defined

anyone know how can you make your bot leave every guild at once?

(Discord.js)

[lyric mountain]

I have no idea then, check if your request is being sent as actual PATCH

[earnest phoenix]

const db = require("what ever db you are usin")?```

  bot.guilds.cache.get(id).leave()
    .catch(err => {
    console.log(`there was an error leaving the guild: \n ${err.message}`);
    }```

would this work?

true but my bot is only in 6 so that will be easy

[boreal iron]

Get an array of the guilds by guilds = client.guilds.cache.array()
Loops through it calling guilds[i].leave()

[lyric mountain]

client.guilds.forEach(g -> g.leave())

why bother with optimization if it's just a one-time thing?

[boreal iron]

Eww foreach

Well I mean if it’s actually 6 guilds only

[lyric mountain]

oh yeah, java stuff

forgot js uses fat arrows

[dusky lagoon]

   // only collect left and right arrow reactions from the message author
                (reaction, user) => ['◀️', '▶️','🗑️'].includes(reaction.emoji.name) && user.id === author.id,
                // time out after a minute
                { time: 600000 }
            )
            let currentIndex = 0
            collector.on('collect', reaction => {
               reaction.users.remove(message.author.id)
                reaction.emoji.name === '◀️' ? currentIndex -= 1 : currentIndex += 1;
                if (currentIndex < 0) {
                    currentIndex += 1;
                }
                if (currentIndex + 1 > pages.length) {
                    currentIndex -= 1;
                }

                if (reaction.emoji.name === '🗑️') {
                    message.reactions.removeAll().catch(error => console.error('Failed to clear reactions: ', error));
                }``` i added `reaction.users.remove(message.author.id)` so it removes the user reaction but instead it deletes the reaction that the bot added?? how can i fix this

[lyric mountain]

use reaction.user.id

just noticed user has nothing to do with that scope

[eternal osprey]

these are the intents of my txt file

i tried getting the size of it

so how many words there are in the txt file

[lyric mountain]

7

[eternal osprey]

it gave me 25 eventually witht his code: if(message.content == "!count"){ const count1 = fs .readFileSync("./keywords1.txt", "utf8") count1res = count1.length;

pretty sure that it isn't right

[eternal osprey]

yeah like it should be

[cinder patio]

that gives you the total amount of characters

[lyric mountain]

you're counting the chars, yeah

[eternal osprey]

owh

what should i use instead?

[lyric mountain]

regex mostly

then count matches

[boreal iron]

Split the content by split(/ +/g) and count the created array size

@eternal osprey

[opal plank]

or regex

\b should catch everything thats non symbol type

just check size after that

my bad

\s

@eternal osprey

if you want ALL characters(including spaces and newlines) you do <str>.length

if you want JUST the characters

[a-zA-Z] in a regex capture group

if you want ONLY digits \d

theres plenty of ways to do count like you want

this i would consider a decent case for regex as checking for every character would be annoying as fuck

[cinder patio]

they want to count the words

[lyric mountain]

use \w+

so it doesn't match single letters but the whole word

[icy fjord]

@lyric mountain can pm?

[lyric mountain]

no

just show how you're defining db

[icy fjord]

brp

bro

[lyric mountain]

line 180, file index.js

[icy fjord]

not this

xd

[lyric mountain]

about?

[winter bear]

discord.js

[lyric mountain]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@top-gg/sdk

then ask #topgg-api how to proceed if you still have questions after reading the docs

[earnest phoenix]

is there any efficient way without fetching mongodb on every message

[slender thistle]

Storing in cache and editing the data when users want to edit it

[earnest phoenix]

What is this happening?

[slender thistle]

429 meaning ratelimited

[earnest phoenix]

atm i have caching with changestream ,which gets updated,but often it gets corrupted

[slender thistle]

Corrupted how

[earnest phoenix]

yea but i have 2 apps same db :c

[earnest phoenix]

that something does not get deleted

[earnest phoenix]

So what I should do to fix this?

[slender thistle]

wait until ratelimit is over

[earnest phoenix]

ik a solution

[lyric mountain]

also fix whatever is causing ratelimit spam in a single minute

[earnest phoenix]

is there any efficient way without fetching mongodb atm i have caching with changestream

[lyric mountain]

use actual object caches

[earnest phoenix]

i use it but sometimes delete does not work

it still stays in cache

[slender thistle]

Sounds like an issue with code

[lyric mountain]

this is what you're caching

this is what you should cache

[earnest phoenix]

and if the document create are too fast it does not catch

[pale lava]

lol

[lyric mountain]

don't cache streams, they're supposed to have a beginning and an ending

cache their values

make a map/collection/whateveryourlanguses and store key-value pairs there

with the key being whatever u use to access in mongo docs

and the value being whatever you'd retrieve from there

do note, however, that this is trading RAM for storage

more ram = less cache | more transactions
more performance = more cache | less transactions

[feral aspen]

const message = "lol";

const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor(red)
.setDescription(`${message} Hello`)

How do I make it for example, If message is equal to "lol", it would add the ${message} before Hello but if it was not equal to "lol" or like if it was false, then it won't add.

I'm pretty sure there is a way.

[obsidian palm]

yea you need to collect the message

[feral aspen]

"lol" is stored as a value in the variable message

as an example

[obsidian palm]

hmm

yes collector works for this

[zenith terrace]

I would of done it with message.content if you put it into a message event

[obsidian palm]

yea

[earnest phoenix]

He can do : if message.author.includes message no?

[obsidian palm]

no then if the message

includes lol

[feral aspen]

Ok.

[obsidian palm]

like lmao lol

[feral aspen]

What if it was this?

[obsidian palm]

then it will send

do you want it for only the word lol

.content.includes

[zenith terrace]

you cant do message.author as he has defined message as lol

[feral aspen]

const lol = message.member.roles.cache.has(server.moderatorRole);

const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor(red)
.setDescription(`${lol} Hello`)

// If the user has the role, it would add the ${lol} but if it was false, then it won't add.

[zenith terrace]

this is what I would of done if it was inside a message event

//code with lol
} else {
//code without lol
}```

[earnest phoenix]

ahh yes

[feral aspen]

Bruh.

[obsidian palm]

yep

this will work

[feral aspen]

That will not work if you have multiple ${} at the same line at the same time

As you can have 1 true, 2 true, 3 true, or at any time any of them can change.

[feral aspen]

What about this?

[obsidian palm]

hmm idk if server.moderatorRole is a function

wait a sec

[icy fjord]

Can anyone help me?

[dusky sundial]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[feral aspen]

I didn't even ask if it is a function or not.

Nevermind.

[obsidian palm]

best test it

[feral aspen]

What?

[obsidian palm]

the command

[feral aspen]

What do you mean, this?

That wasn't what I was looking for.

[zenith terrace]

maybe if you actually said about roles my answer would of been different

[feral aspen]

Well, I guess I sent that 1 second before you sent your answer.

const check = message.member.roles.cache.has(server.moderatorRole);
const emoji = "😀";

const anotherCheck = message.member.roles.cache.has(server.mainRole);
const emojiTwo = "😉"

const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor(red)
.setDescription(`${emoji} ${emojiTwo} Hello`)

// If the user has the role, it would add the emoji before the Hello

Like this.

if check was ture, it adds emoji, if anotherCheck was true, it adds emojiTwo, if not, it won't add.

[earnest phoenix]

the cache stream updates the cache if a document on the other side like on my website got changed

[lyric mountain]

streams must be closed after usage

don't keep them open smh

[earnest phoenix]

the problem is if many users delete a document it does not receive all streams

[lyric mountain]

use a map/collection/whatever

the flow should be like this:

[earnest phoenix]

i mean this https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/changeStreams/

[lyric mountain]

use, local, map/collection

forget mongo for that matter

[earnest phoenix]

this is the stream

changestream.on("change", function (change) {
    if (change.operationType === "update") {
        var removeIndex = cache.map(function (item) { return item.token; }).indexOf(change.fullDocument.token);
        cache.splice(removeIndex, 1);
        cache.push(change.fullDocument) ;
    }
    if (change.operationType === "delete") {
        /*let index = cache.findIndex(x => x._id === change.documentKey._id)
        console.log(index)
        if (!index) return;*/
        var removeIndex = cache.map(function (item) { return item._id; }).indexOf(change.documentKey._id);
        // remove object
        cache.splice(removeIndex, 1);
    }
    if (change.operationType === "insert") {
        cache.push(change.fullDocument)
    }
})```

cache is a object

rn have to go off

just ping me so i can read it later

[lyric mountain]

"cache" being a map/collection

[willow mirage]

damm

nice design

[river panther]

ooof, i wonder how much time did it take you to make it

[lyric mountain]

not much, most is just getting the chars from charmap

[willow mirage]

use the numbers pad + alt

it is faster

[lyric mountain]

I never remember the unicode codes

[willow mirage]

me2

[earnest phoenix]

Hey

I want to add this:

if (result.includes("A")) result = result.replace("A", " ∀");
if (result.includes("a")) result = result.replace("a", " ɐ");

But I don't want to add this 50 times

How to compress this?

[copper cradle]

wdym

[cinder patio]

for loop + switch is one of the alternative ways to do it

not sure if you can do it with regex

[copper cradle]

do you want it to replace every single occurrence of it?

if so then a regex should do

/A/g

/a/g

[cinder patio]

but he would still need to do it 50 times for the others...

[copper cradle]

and that'll replace every single A in your string

[cinder patio]

that's what he doesn't want to do.

[copper cradle]

what-

[copper cradle]

^

[cinder patio]

...

[copper cradle]

their question isn't that clear tho

@earnest phoenix come here

[cinder patio]

He doesn't want to have 50 different if statements for each letter, at least that's what I'm getting from it

[earnest phoenix]

yes?

oh euhh

In the alphabet, there is 26 letters

and I need to add this

min and maj

[copper cradle]

alr then gfeud was right

[slender thistle]

for char in someMap
string.replaceAll(char, someMap[char])

[cinder patio]

It would probably be better to reconstruct the string instead of using replace, though not sure

[earnest phoenix]

oh

[slender thistle]

Can't you use a Map here

[earnest phoenix]

no

but my script is better oof

but I don't want to add 50 times the line

O_O

[copper cradle]

then it isn't

[slender thistle]

I'm sorry but how does a Map not apply here

[earnest phoenix]

[slender thistle]

A Map consisting of char to be replaced as a key and a char to replace with as a value

[cinder patio]

smth like this

const thingsToChange = {a: "Some weird A", b: "Some weird B", ...};
let res = "";
for (let i=0; i < str.length; i++) {
  if (thingsToChange[char]) res[i] += thingsToChange[str[i]];
  else res[i] +=str[i];
}

[earnest phoenix]

okay I test

[copper cradle]

inb4 they just copy the code googlefeud sent and say it doesn't work

[feral aspen]

When writing an inline if statement.

.setTitle(`${premium ? supporter : }`)

After : I want it to return or not set a value

Do I put '' only?

[cinder patio]

an empty string

[feral aspen]

'' only.

[cinder patio]

Also those template literals are pointless

""

[copper cradle]

that's not called an inline if statment, that's a ternary operator, just use "", yeah

[feral aspen]

Oh, alright. Called it wrong.

Thanks!

[copper cradle]

don't worry

[feral aspen]

.setTitle(`${premium ? supporter : ""} ${earlySupporter ? earlySupporterBadge : ""}`)

I think if the first one is false, it will put as an empty string, but you see the space between } and $, I guess that makes a problem?

[lyric mountain]

in js, you can just do ${premium && supporter}

no need for a ternary

[feral aspen]

I need a ternary for a check.

[pale vessel]

well premium && supporter || ""

[lyric mountain]

you don't need in that case

[cinder patio]

That actually won't work in their case because if they don't have the premium badge the earlySupporterBadge won't show either

ternary is the cleanest option

[pale vessel]

[lyric mountain]

like

[feral aspen]

Exactly.

[lyric mountain]

if premium is false, then don't show the badge

right?

[lament ruin]

I'm trying to figure out how the 'voiceStateUpdate' event works but I have no idea. Is there a way to check if the newMember or the oldMember arent just muting or deafening themselves and just check if they joined left a channel?

[pale vessel]

no

it'll stringify false

[feral aspen]

If premium is false, it won't show anything, if early supporter badge is false, it won't show anything.

[pale vessel]

just use ternary

[feral aspen]

Ternary it is for now.

[cinder patio]

You can still use && but differently

[pale vessel]

I'm not sure what you mean by this

I'd use ternary too but that should also work

[lyric mountain]

.setTitle((premium && supporter) + " " + (earlySupporter && earlySupporterBadge))?

[copper cradle]

lmao

[lyric mountain]

or it'd still stringify false?

[lament ruin]

From what I've read it's triggered in all this scenarios:

[cinder patio]

Oh wait yours will actually work, I thought supporter was also a bool mb

[feral aspen]

Yes, it indeed worked.

😀

Ayy, it works amazing, thank you all, though.

[fierce ether]

best case system would be creating a new entry into the db with each case author, and the reason with the number correct?

[feral aspen]

if(!oldMessage.guild.me.hasPermission(["SEND_MESSAGES", "EMBED_LINKS"])) return;

Cannot read property "me" of null

[umbral zealot]

oldMessage.guild is undefined - either it's not a message, or it's a message that's not from a guild.

[feral aspen]

module.exports = async (bot, oldMessage, newMessage) => {

    // Checks if the bot has permissions to send messages or embed links to the channel.
    if(!oldMessage.guild.me.hasPermission(["SEND_MESSAGES", "EMBED_LINKS"])) return;

    // Checks if the bot has permissions to send messages or embed links to the channel.
    if(!newMessage.guild.me.hasPermission(["SEND_MESSAGES", "EMBED_LINKS"])) return;
};

It's for the messageUpdate event.

[umbral zealot]

Ok. Message updates can happen in DMs.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[feral aspen]

Doesn't look like a good order.

😂

[umbral zealot]

Just add a condition to return if there's no guild, should be simple enough

[feral aspen]

// If the message was from a direct message.
    if(oldMessage.channel.type === "dm" || newMessage.channel.type === "dm") return;

    // If the message was from a bot, it would return.
    if(oldMessage.author.bot || newMessage.author.bot) return;
    
    // If the message has no guild.
    if(!message.guild) return;

    // Check if there is a message content.
    if(!oldMessage.content || newMessage.content) return;
    
    // If the bot was offline or restarting and the bot could not cache the message, it will return so it can not return as "undefined".
    if(oldMessage.partial || newMessage.partial) return;

    // Checks if the bot has permissions to send messages or embed links to the channel.
    if(!oldMessage.guild.me.hasPermission(["SEND_MESSAGES", "EMBED_LINKS"]) || !newMessage.guild.me.hasPermission(["SEND_MESSAGES", "EMBED_LINKS"])) return;

    // We need to check if the actual message is a blank message, so it can return.
    if(oldMessage.content.includes(["_ _"]) || oldMessage.content.includes(["_ _"])) return;

That is a lot of checks! 👀

[earnest phoenix]

thats no tooooo bad

[feral aspen]

Aw.

[earnest phoenix]

I worked on a bot years ago with some friends and literally a single command had the BIGGEST if statements ever

[feral aspen]

Is it bad or not too bad?

Idek

[dusky harness]

How to send the command block

hey

look

[lusty quest]

did you want to send a message inside a command block with the bot or here on discord?

[dusky harness]

for our deal

[lusty quest]

could be worse, ask the Tsundere Dev, his game is 90% a single if then else statement

[feral aspen]

Idk him.

[quartz kindle]

yandev is now tsundev?

xD

[feral aspen]

🤷‍♂️

[lusty quest]

idk one of them

[feral aspen]

😂

[lusty quest]

but yea the game is a joke

[lusty quest]

runs like you would expect if you saw the leaked code

[delicate shore]

yo guys

    if(typeof(input) !== "String") throw new Error(`Expected a string! For example - "This is a message" or "https://youtube.com/user/rickastley"`)

Haven't coded in months, I have forgotten everything

const {isRick} = require("rickroll-detector")
let thing = "https://youtube.com......"
 
console.log(isRick(thing))

this is the code

[opal plank]

lowercase string

not uppercase

[delicate shore]

ohh

[cinder patio]

Yo, does discord allow you to use any chats while you're watching a stream?

[opal plank]

yeah

use the popout feature

[peak knot]

[opal plank]

[cinder patio]

ah right

[delicate shore]

    if(!input) throw new Error("No Input provided!")
    if(typeof(input) !== "string") throw new Error(`Expected a string! For example - "This is a message" or "https://youtube.com/user/rickastley" but recieved ${typeof input}`)
request(input), function (error, response, body) {
  console.error('error:', error)
  let body2 = body.toString()
  let body3 = body2.toLowerCase()
  if(body3.includes("rick roll") || body3.includes("rick astley") || body3.includes("never gonna") ){
  return("Yep, This is a RickRoll!")
  }else{
      return("Nope, This ain't a RickRoll")
  }
  }

😩

[lament rock]

might wanna check the lib's code

see how it determines the boolean

[opal plank]

its not that

he's returning inside a function scope

first, your return is in brackets

second

even if it didnt

your return fullfills this function

not the one you originated from

[opal plank]

you need to read on how functions and scopes work

also request is a promise

[hollow haven]

Idk

[opal plank]

your function should be using async/await

read upon that as well

i also formatted it for you since you dont seem to be using a linter, this should show how poorly this code was written

  if (!input) throw new Error('No Input provided!');
    if (typeof input !== 'string')
      throw new Error(
        `Expected a string! For example - "This is a message" or "https://youtube.com/user/rickastley" but recieved ${typeof input}`
      );
    request(input),
      function (error, response, body) {
        console.error('error:', error);
        let body2 = body.toString();
        let body3 = body2.toLowerCase();
        if (
          body3.includes('rick roll') ||
          body3.includes('rick astley') ||
          body3.includes('never gonna')
        ) {
          return 'Yep, This is a RickRoll!';
        } else {
          return "Nope, This ain't a RickRoll";
        }
      };```

request() missing a parenthesis

return scope blocked

theres a lot of mistakes here

[rose lance]

hey, I'm working on my bots page currently and hit a problem: I somehow can't change the text-align argument of h5s
this is what I'm trying but it still looks like in the screenshot below. It also shows that it works fine with normal text

.entity-content__description h5 {
    color: #eeeeee
    text-align: center;
}```

[lament rock]

is h5 a child of entity-content__description

[unreal estuary]

add a ;

after #eeeeee

[rose lance]

yeah I just noticed when posting haha

[unreal estuary]

i think u forgot to

lol

[rose lance]

thanks anyways

[unreal estuary]

page looks nice c:

[rose lance]

thanks :D

I'm not sure tho if I should really only align the titles and main description tho since it looks kinda weird with the rest

[unreal estuary]

maybe just the titles

depends what u want

[lyric mountain]

holy don't center-align the body

makes most content unreadable

[rose lance]

still looks quite readable imo

but just aligning the white title and the text right below looks kinda weird

[lyric mountain]

that's not center-aligned

I didn't mean normal alignment

there, edited the message

[unreal estuary]

see how it looks with the title only centered

[lyric mountain]

https://uxmovement.com/content/why-you-should-never-center-align-paragraph-text/

basically

[rose lance]

I did but it only looks good if the description is one line or longer

[unreal estuary]

maybe center the commands

too

[lyric mountain]

imo, make the titles larger and keep everything on the left

you could also use columns

[cinder patio]

Holy

so I'm planning on making something with lua

but all libraries I need are outdated

[opal plank]

lua's only purpose is to be used in OpenComputers for minecraft, thats it

useless lang

imagine starting arrays at 1

[lyric mountain]

rgb mouse programming

[opal plank]

spit

disgusting

[small tangle]

What is the best way to delete an embed of a message with java and JDA and jda-utilities? im using suppressembeds()and im checking the permissions before executing the command i got an rest action failure missing access

[lyric mountain]

this from suppressEmbeds()

[small tangle]

oh wait let me checked that, i tried it with manage message

[lusty quest]

also for E2 Chips in Gmod and Automation Blocks in from the Depths and in Space Engineers.

[small tangle]

what is the Messae Read permission in discord "view channel"?

[lyric mountain]

use ctrl + space pls

java gave u intellisense, use it

[small tangle]

i mean in discord itself to remove the permission of the bot

trying to reproduce the error

[lyric mountain]

yeah, view channel

[opal plank]

but arrays at 1 kills it right away

[lusty quest]

well its better than adding stuff that needs more efford to learn into games

[delicate shadow]

how do I make my bot do this

look at bottom

[umbral zealot]

what library are you using

[small tangle]

Im kinda lost how to catch that case 😟 im using the eventwaiter from the jda utilities and listen for reactions to that message, but when the bot sent the message, reacts under it and you remove the bot permission to read messages on that message afterwards and react its throwing an exception

oh wait im getting an idea

[earnest phoenix]

if you want to see server's name so you need to make eval command.

[opal plank]

@earnest phoenix you do know you're replying to a message, not only from yesterday, but one that was already answered too, right?

[earnest phoenix]

which db supports change streams? without mongodb

[lusty quest]

seems to be a Mongo Spezific feature, cant find any other DB supporting it

[crystal wigeon]

hey umm

    /\{(.*?)\}/gm,
    y('$1')
  )```
in my func y the value passed is "$1" instead of the 5 which the replace method would give with the $1 syntax. im sure im doing it wrong here. anyway to get the 5?

[pale vessel]

you can't do that

[crystal wigeon]

so how would i set a variable in a description string

[pale vessel]

use js "hello world {5}".replace( /\{(.*?)\}/gm, match => y(match) )

[crystal wigeon]

ah

will try, thanks!

[pale vessel]

i think it should match {5} instead of 5

not sure, log it

[crystal wigeon]

wait whats match here?

[pale vessel]

a string

[crystal wigeon]

the syntax for replace is '$1' to get the value

[pale vessel]

it's the string that the expression matched

[crystal wigeon]

and im sure you cant pass a func like that

[pale vessel]

you can

[feral aspen]

  const lookup = {
    1: "oof"
  }

  var variable = 1;
  console.log(lookup[variable])
  console.log(look.variable) // <-- How does this not work..

[pale vessel]

nono

[crystal wigeon]

look is not even defined?

[pale vessel]

it's a function

[crystal wigeon]

yeah im passing a func

[pale vessel]

'$1" => is not a valid function

that's a string

(param) => doSomething()

that's an arrow function

[crystal wigeon]

ye it says i cant pass functions

to replace

wait nvm

but its still passing "$1" into the function

instead of 5

ok its passing the whole {5}

instead of jsut 5

[pale vessel]

#development message

[cinder patio]

The first one is getting the property with the key being the value of variable, the second one is getting the property with thekey being variable

[feral aspen]

Oh, damn, i literally forgot.

I forgot that the [variable] is telling it about the value and not the name of the property itself.

Thank you.

[steel arch]

If i make a music bot he would need a DataBase?

[crystal wigeon]

i mean, the * typically means return what ever is between {}

which is this case is 5

[pale vessel]

the match isn't $1, it's $&

so the whole thing

[crystal wigeon]

ah

[dusky sundial]

What would you store in the database?

[steel arch]

The queue

[crystal wigeon]

how would i strip the number lel

[dusky sundial]

Why do you need to store the queue there?

[steel arch]

I there another way?

[pale vessel]

just slice the brackets

[crystal wigeon]

aight

thanks!

[dusky sundial]

You could just store it in the code, no? Unless you plan on having the queue save despite your bot going offline

[crystal wigeon]

worked

[steel arch]

I can store in the code, I didn't know that. Thanks

How can i do a only VIPs command?

[solemn latch]

depends on how you define vip

[steel arch]

Like, i want to make where only persons who pay can take acess to a specific command

[solemn latch]

well, how are you accepting money for vip?

like, patreon, paypal, custom subscriptions, or whatever?

[steel arch]

Im thinking with paypal

[solemn latch]

then you will have to probably save each vip manually.

so a database

[steel arch]

I can save in my code?

[solemn latch]

thats probably a bad option, it means taking down your bot each time a new vip is added.

[steel arch]

Yeah you right... I need to add a DB to my bot, and see how that works, thank you

[earnest phoenix]

@spare goblet pls dm

[dusky sundial]

Don't ping community managers please, what is your issue?

[frail mountain]

hi i cant figure out how to actually make a kick cmd with discord.py any tips?

[dusky sundial]

there is a method you can use called Member.kick(reason="reason here")
Keep in mind that your bot also needs the "KICK MEMBERS" permission to execute that

Hello:

          console.log(pages[page].title.charAt(0).toLowerCase() + pages[page].title.substring(1, pages[page].title.length));
          console.log(arena.className.price);

I am trying to access a price from my json file. Arena is a json file.

When I run arena.healer.price it works, but when I run arena.className.price it gives me undefined. And the className variable when logged shows healer...

@winter bear have you ever used a database?

[winter bear]

nop

[solemn latch]

so your best bet is spending some time learning about databases.

[winter bear]

bruh

[solemn latch]

databases are too big of a topic to explain them here 👀

if you want something easy, mongodb is quite easy.
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/getting-started/

or if you want something super easy, quick.db is very simple stuff.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/quick.db
quick.db isnt the best though, itll work, but just be aware its kinda limited

but pretty much, what youll be doing, in the webhook event(when you receive a vote) you will be saving that vote in the database.
that entry you can set to auto delete after 12 hours(ttl).
whenever someone runs a vote locked command, youll check the database and see if its in the database, if it is, let them run it.

[steel arch]

What would be the best DB for my bot?

[solemn latch]

depends

relational, non relational? are you worried about scalability? what are you comfortable with?

its something you can spend a lot of time researching

[steel arch]

I'm thinking about MySQL

[opal plank]

if you go for sql based, i'd go with postgres

[steel arch]

Is that an online database?

[opal plank]

im highly biased on postgres and redis

no, its a normal database

you install it and use it

[steel arch]

Oh I prefer a online DB because I just have one computer and have the database always running, i do t know

[opal plank]

mySQL as you wanted, isnt online

[woeful pike]

I prefer managed databases too but my wallet disagrees with me

[opal plank]

postgres keydb redis or cassandra

those are the only ones i would personally use

postgres as a utility one, it has basically everything you need

redis keydb as super performance dbs

or cassandra which offers great and easy scalability

[lyric mountain]

did you mean "I'm not thinking about mysql"?

[woeful pike]

i mean people here talk about scalability when they're running databases with less than a million rows lol

[steel arch]

I saw MongoDB but seems very confusing

[opal plank]

this

[lyric mountain]

I'm running above that

[opal plank]

i dont think anyone here would reaslistically need for performance bots

not below 100k servers at the very least

[woeful pike]

just get a single postgres instance and you're not gonna run into issues for a long time

[opal plank]

and even at those ranges you'd need a lot of queries to manage to abuse it

though in fairnes postgres offers clustering too

i was checking upon that a while ago

same for redis

[boreal iron]

I wouldn’t charge the amount of rows for a talk about scaling but how much clients access the database and how much requests are done per second.

[woeful pike]

it's very tempting to play with different toys but these scalability databases really don't make any noticable difference for the kind of data you and I work with, not even at top.gg even

[opal plank]

the only reason i had to even bother checking on scaling was leviathan, which legit pulled 98% of twitch's global traffic

and i was querying on every message

[woeful pike]

I mean I can't think of many instances where your database access doesn't grow with the size of your data

[opal plank]

i think i was looking at around 120k queries per second

[steel arch]

I'm going to try KeyDB seems to me a very good DB

[opal plank]

keyDB is overkill

i would not recommend it

[woeful pike]

just... pick up a relational database first

[opal plank]

vanilla redis would be better

[tender dust]

Hi

[boreal iron]

You’re speaking about data collection but I’m speaking about static database content such as hash lookup tables etc.

[quartz kindle]

when it comes to databases, your data design and structure matters 95% of your performance

[earnest phoenix]

Help

[quartz kindle]

the software you use matters 5%

[opal plank]

this

[boreal iron]

Yeah that’s true for sure

[opal plank]

and what queries you're using too

[woeful pike]

no bro nosql very fast brrrr

[opal plank]

SELECT *

[boreal iron]

[quartz kindle]

with that said

[steel arch]

I will just use the database to VIP commands

[quartz kindle]

sqlite > all

[earnest phoenix]

İm created a bot i can no invite

[quartz kindle]

:^)

[opal plank]

burn the sinner

[lyric mountain]

let's not talk about twitch

[woeful pike]

use relational database = very stink, not good performance
use nosql = instantly good performance and better in every way pog

[opal plank]

shush its a valid example

normally nobody would ever deal with that much traffic

[quartz kindle]

use JS = very stink, not good performance
use TS = instantly good performance and better in every way pog

/s :^)
