development

[opal plank]

70gb of ram used?

oof

[boreal iron]

it's working for 3 days now

continuesly

[opal plank]

last time i did that i destroyed all its 128gb with the twitch mass join

[boreal iron]

the RAM is full means I am limited to disk speed

yeah, the root has 128 ECC as well, but I'm unable to assign it to the VM

[opal plank]

ah i see

[boreal iron]

since there are other ones running may need a little RAM, too

just moving all the crap to the amd arch atm

better hardware prices and multicoring performance atm

Intel can't keep up with atm

[quartz kindle]

how the tables have turned

[boreal iron]

yeah

[crimson vapor]

@quartz kindle what the fuck #starboard message

[boreal iron]

if Intel is preparing anything big the next years, the will loose more and more market %

I mean the enterprise segment still works with Intels gold or platinum chips but that may change, too in the future

[quartz kindle]

yes

[crimson vapor]

LOL

[tired panther]

@quartz kindle in which cases are guilds not loaded in the cache?

[quartz kindle]

never

[zenith terrace]

[earnest phoenix]

How to write with bot the member count? e

[tired panther]

a last question:
the thing with the timeout, when I pass setTimeout(client) and run it may times, will it save the client onetime in the map or a lot of times, even when the client is the same

[tired panther]

message.guild.memberCount

[earnest phoenix]

Brah

Thx

[quartz kindle]

only once

[tired panther]

but when the client content changes them, will it change too?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[slate oyster]

That's what they all say.

[ornate atlas]

I was wondering if someone could help me make my first bot.

[obtuse niche]

what language you want to use?

[ornate atlas]

English

[lament ruin]

lmao

[obtuse niche]

Uuhm i mean code language

[lament ruin]

hahah

[ornate atlas]

Ohh......... Lol i dont know any code

y am i even here

lololol

I have recoded a few links tho

[obtuse niche]

Maybe, its better to learn a language first before starting to code a bot.

[lament ruin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_sD9udZnCk&list=PLbbLC0BLaGjpyzN1rg-gK4dUqbn8eJQq4

Start with this

[obtuse niche]

Like python or javascript

[ornate atlas]

Ok. Thank you!

[earnest phoenix]

TypeError: server.createChannel is not a function

var server=message.guild;

var member=message.guild.memberCount;
server.createChannel("Server members: "+member, "voice")

message.reply("Channel created!")

[nocturne dagger]

It is prob something really simple with v12 but here is the error I am getting.

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'roles' of undefined

https://i.imgur.com/094D0WH.png

[cinder patio]

roles.cache

[earnest phoenix]

why not make a channel?

[nocturne dagger]

TypeError: message.guild.roles.cache.exists is not a function

I got that back...

[earnest phoenix]

im stuck in nickname cmd pls help me

@client.command(aliases=['n','N'])
@commands.has_permissions(manage_nicknames=True)
async def nick(ctx, member: discord.Member=None, nick=None):
    if member == None:
        member = ctx.author
        await member.edit(nick=nick)
        await ctx.send(f":ballot_box_with_check: Succesfully changed your nickname!")
    else:
        await member.edit(nick=nick)
        await ctx.send(f":ballot_box_with_check: Succesfully changed {member.mention}'s nickname!")
    if nick == None:
        await ctx.send(":x: choose a new nickname...")

if member == None is not working but when i ping someone before nickname it works

[earnest phoenix]

channels.create

[dusky sundial]

Is it not supposed to be ctx.message.author?

[earnest phoenix]

ooopsss

i think yeee

i will try

[cinder patio]

exists is v11 and below

[dusky sundial]

Also, you can simplify if member != None: to just if member:

[nocturne dagger]

Ah, is there a alternative in v12?

[cinder patio]

some

but it's used differently

[earnest phoenix]

channels is not defined

bruh

[nocturne dagger]

How so?

[cinder patio]

You have to pass a function

[boreal iron]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildChannelManager?scrollTo=create

[slender thistle]

doesn't matter

[slender thistle]

Perform a check for nick or don't give it a default value at all

[earnest phoenix]

it will cause an error

i will try again later

[slender thistle]

And what I mean by that is that you are checking if nick == None (which could just be shortened to if nick)

ONLY AFTER checking member

[earnest phoenix]

ik

[slender thistle]

Preferably you would do something like

if member:
    if nick:
        change_nick()
    else:
        no_nick_found()
else:
    no_member_found()

[errant perch]

my bot keeps going offline although in vscode it is still online

[nocturne dagger]

I hate v12

(node:136156) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'createChannel' of undefined

https://i.imgur.com/DbZx0nv.png

[umbral zealot]

how does it "say it's online" in vscode

[errant perch]

the process hasnt exited

[umbral zealot]

So the process is running you mean

[errant perch]

yes

[umbral zealot]

That doesn't mean it's online

[earnest phoenix]

if i used
//nick @！センク－ちゃん！#0374 something
it will change
and then if i used// something
it will change too

but if i directly used // something without
//nick @！センク－ちゃん！#0374 something before it, it won't change

[umbral zealot]

you can have custom bot status as offline if you want so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also maybe you're not even logging on the process? Can you show us your code from your index.js?

[umbral zealot]

There is no message.guild.cache. It's message.guild. caches are for collections.

[boreal iron]

Well then use the correct method #development message

[umbral zealot]

What you want is message.guild.channels.create() I believe

[errant perch]

the command work for like 30 seconds then the bot turns off

no error

[umbral zealot]

can you upload your entire index.js to https://paste.gg/ maybe

Feels like if anything was happening to make the bot crash it would be captured by bot.logger.error

[stoic viper]

so uh I just finished making my basic bot and I was testing it to see if the command would work but uh it didn’t and idk what to do and google isn’t helping one bit-?

i'm also stupid so there's that-

[earnest phoenix]

h

[umbral zealot]

Help me, I'm dumb!
Are you actually dumb, as in, lacking the mental fortitude to code, or are you just lacking the experience and knowledge to understand the code?
Because if you're actually just dumb, the only help we can provide in terms of bot coding is "don't code bots, use those that exist".
if you're just lacking experience, then there's a solution and it's "just take the time to learn javascript and you'll be fine".
Most people that say or think they're dumb, it's just because they're rushing into thinks head first and being overwhelmed by a lot of information all at once. Anyone would be!

[stoic viper]

oh-

well that's reassuring

[umbral zealot]

My suggestion: Take the time to leran javascript first. Here are some resources: #development message

[earnest phoenix]

not helped to me

:l

[stoic viper]

tyty

[umbral zealot]

Well, it's how you create channels. message.guild.channels.create

[boreal iron]

I wonder how that can't help, there are even examples if you would scroll down the site

[umbral zealot]

"it didn't help" usually means "I didn't bother reading but I remember trying to use something like that and it broke so I'm going to not try again"

[boreal iron]

Opening the site, first look - "oh god too complicated", closing the site, beggin in Discord for code examples

Yeah what I said

[umbral zealot]

And then our code example is the same as the site 😛

[boreal iron]

aye :D

[earnest phoenix]

TypeError: Cannot read property 'channels' of undefined

-_-

[boreal iron]

That channel should be renamed to "entertainment" sometimes

[earnest phoenix]

i kill this js

[umbral zealot]

if you can't read property channels of undefined it means message.guild is undefined

which can either mean you're in a DM, or your message variable isn't a message at all

[boreal iron]

I guess he just copied the code on djs

guild.channels.create()

while being in a message event

[umbral zealot]

maybe?

@earnest phoenix show us your code

[boreal iron]

i kill this js
he probably did it

[earnest phoenix]

yes

i did

[umbral zealot]

Ah well, if giving up is your thing, sure.

[earnest phoenix]

No

i solved the problem so

😛

[umbral zealot]

Ah.

[boreal iron]

woop woop

[earnest phoenix]

and i kill who made that command handler because it didn't work in other js file

e

[umbral zealot]

I have a feeling the issue isn't the person that wrote the command handler....

[boreal iron]

that's the result of copy & paste without undestanding

[earnest phoenix]

why

other commands: simp etc. worked

[umbral zealot]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slender thistle]

PEBCAK

[boreal iron]

oh oh sombody opened up shivs cage

[carmine summit]

auctions.reduce((arr, cur) => arr.find(arr => arr.item_name === cur.item_name && arr.tier === cur.tier) ? arr.find(arr => arr.item_name === cur.item_name && arr.tier === cur.tier).popularity++ : arr.push(cur["popularity"] = 1), arr, [])
```arr is not defined?

[umbral zealot]

why do you have , arr, [] in there

the second argument of array.reduce is supposed to be the initial value

and there is no 3rd argument

[carmine summit]

because

[umbral zealot]

what are you trying to find, from what

I have a feeling this is an x/y problem

[carmine summit]

cur

[boreal iron]

Because arr isn't an object

nobody saw that

[quartz kindle]

you need to return arr

otherwise it doesnt exist anymore after the first iteration

[umbral zealot]

yeah that too

somearray.reduce( (accumulator, currentValueFromArray, Index, OriginalArray) -> {
  // do something with accumulator
  return accumulator;
}, initialValue)

I usually reduce that to ```js
someArray.reduce( (acc, curr) => {
return acc;
}, []);

though reduce actually works with any data type for the accumulator. can be a string, int, object, whatever

[quartz kindle]

i use (a,t,i,r)

xD

[pale vessel]

(accumulator, currentValueFromArray, Index, OriginalArray) consistency™️

[umbral zealot]

lol yes

of course

[pale vessel]

let's just use (accumulator, current_value_from_array, index, OriginalArray)

[quartz kindle]

lets just use (a,b,c,d)

[carmine summit]

im confused still

[quartz kindle]

well unconfuse yourself

do you know what is "implicit return" and "explicit return"?

[carmine summit]

nope

[quartz kindle]

() => 10

this is implicit return

() => { return 10 }

this is explicit return

they are both the same thing

you are using an arrow function without brackets, so you are doing implicit return

[carmine summit]

so you will only need return if it is in {}

[quartz kindle]

yes

implicit return automatically returns the thing inside your function

so you are automatically returning the result of your ternary

which is either popularity++ or arr.push()

you are returning that

and that return value overrides the accumulator

so on the second iteration, the accumulator is not an array anymore

its the value you implicitly returned

[carmine summit]

so I need to explicitly return it for it to work

[quartz kindle]

yes

you need to explicitly return the array again

[carmine summit]

so I need to use {}

[quartz kindle]

also, what is this supposed to do? arr.push(cur["popularity"] = 1)

[nocturne dagger]

Is there any way to upload a image as a emoji in discord.js?

[carmine summit]

add popularity to the end of the object with 1 as value?

[quartz kindle]

you are doing push(1) and at the same time setting cur.popularity to 1

you are changing the value of the original thing

is that what you want to do ?

[umbral zealot]

this is also doing arr.push(null)

[carmine summit]

nope

[cinder patio]

It's actually pushing 1 to the array

[umbral zealot]

actually not

javascript assignment returns null (or undefined I can't remember. probably undefined)

[umbral zealot]

OH it's when you define a new variable it's undefined then

ok

Either way I'm guessing this is a learnjs moment tbh

[cinder patio]

I don't think it even allows you to use let and const where an expression is needed

[umbral zealot]

yeah it wouldn't let you use that here, no

[carmine summit]

auctions = auctions.reduce((arr, cur) => arr.find(arr => arr.item_name === cur.item_name && arr.tier === cur.tier) ? arr.find(arr => arr.item_name === cur.item_name && arr.tier === cur.tier).popularity++ : arr.push(cur["popularity"] = 1) && arr, [])

seems like I don't need {} after all...

[umbral zealot]

wow. that looks horrible.

[quartz kindle]

you can do global assignment expression

but not local

[cinder patio]

Honestly your logic inside that reduce is so convoluted that it's better to just use a loop

[carmine summit]

loops are too bulky

[cinder patio]

I know I told you to use reduce originally but this is too much

[quartz kindle]

your code makes even less sense right now

[umbral zealot]

"bulky"

[tidal nymph]

is heroku free hosting enough for crawling multi pages asynchronously ?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[tidal nymph]

my bot is working fine on my pc but it doesnt on heroku

like sometimes the crawling func just fails or sth

[cinder patio]

crawling how? By requesting the HTML and using a parser to traverse it?

[tidal nymph]

yea im using puppeteer

[cinder patio]

Tno

puppeteer is an entirely different thing

and requires a lot of resources

[pale vessel]

you need the puppeteer buildpack

[quartz kindle]

from what i understand you want to either increase the popularity of an existing item or add the non existing item and set popularity to 1, right? so your code is still very wrong

[tidal nymph]

you mean puppeteer-core?

[cinder patio]

I don't think heruko free plan can handle it

[pale vessel]

no, the heroku buildpack

unless you already got it working

[tidal nymph]

i alr got that

[cinder patio]

The free plan probably can't handle a lot of different pages / browsers

[tidal nymph]

and it runs fine for like once or more but then

[cinder patio]

Do you close the pages after you're done with them?

[tidal nymph]

yea

i also close the browser after done with that session

[cinder patio]

are you sure puppeteer is the right tool for the job here, which site are you crawling

[tidal nymph]

im crawling a youtube page

idk if its the right tool because i only know puppeteer

[umbral zealot]

please note that this is probably literally against the Youtube terms of service

you should consider not doing that

If Youtube wanted you to access something it would be in their API.

[pale vessel]

Music bots be like

[cinder patio]

for what are you crawling it? You can make a HTTP get request and use a HTML parser for most things

[tidal nymph]

im just crawling either "watching" or "waiting" text on a livestream/upcoming stream

[pale vessel]

How are you gonna load the js though

[umbral zealot]

You should be using pubsubhub

[cinder patio]

Some data is already in the HTML

[tidal nymph]

ok imma try doing a research on that

[cinder patio]

like the title of the video

[pale vessel]

yeah

[cinder patio]

that's why I asked what he's trying to get

[tidal nymph]

i just need to know if that channel having a livestream/upcoming so i dont have to use youtube search API

[cinder patio]

I dunno if that's in the html

[quartz kindle]

you need an explicit return, otherwise you're still overriding the accumulator with a number or a boolean. and you're still modifying the original items as well in the push() method. this is what you need: ```js
auctions.reduce((arr, cur) => { // you need an explicit return to not override the accumulator
let found = arr.find(arr => arr.item_name === cur.item_name && arr.tier === cur.tier);
if(found) { // dont use find twice
found.popularity++
} else {
let item = {...cur} // you need to create a duplicate of the original item if you dont want to modify the original. this method only creates duplicates of top-level properties, objects inside objects will still be linked by referece, but this is enough to prevent adding "popularity" to the original.
item.popularity = 1;
arr.push(item);
}
return arr; // return the accumulator to continue in the next loop
})

[carmine summit]

do I really need the curly brackets?

[quartz kindle]

yes

otherwise you are not returning the accumulator

which makes the next loop break

[cinder patio]

having curly brackets isn't a bad thing

[quartz kindle]

arr needs to be returned, and there is no way to implicitly return it at the same time as doing the other operations

because the other operations return other things

found.popularity++ returns a number

[carmine summit]

it looks ugly

[quartz kindle]

arr.push() also returns a number

[latent heron]

question unrelated to this current topic

[quartz kindle]

arr.push() && arr returns true

[latent heron]

why does being a discord bot developer seem to be a personality trait now

[tired hawk]

loockdoown

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[latent heron]

its like going to a software firm for a job interview and in the coding practice when they ask you to give an example of a sorting algorithm, you go "don't worry, i've had years of experience in kindergarten putting blocks in holes! i can do this!"

[carmine summit]

but ok I guess I do need that curly brackets

[livid carbon]

typescript/js

mostly typescript now

[cinder patio]

arr.push() && arr returns the array

aka arr

[pale vessel]

If you go to https://www.youtube.com/channel/<id>/live and if the channel is live/scheduled to be live, it will redirect to the live video URL. If not, it will redirect to the channel URL instead. You can use ytInitialPlayerResponse from the HTML and scrape the player data (title, description, etc.)

[woeful pike]

Being so invested into the discord programming "sphere" you might be forgetting that majority of people who are in college or learning programming don't really go out of their way to do programming on their own time like with discord bots. Seeing applicants for junior positions who have experience writing and maintaining software with actual users regardless of how small it may be is pretty impressive for many companies

so it's definitely not putting blocks in holes

[quartz kindle]

wait what

how

dafuq is this sorcery

[cinder patio]

awesome right

[quartz kindle]

no its not awesome

its scary

lmao

[woeful pike]

that works the same way in python too

[cinder patio]

It's pog

[pale vessel]

because array.push() returns 1 which is truthy so it'll return arr

[tidal nymph]

whats ytInitialPlayerResponse ? I've been doing the first part plus crawling "waiting" or "watching now" text

[latent heron]

thats mainly me referring to people who have no coding experience and they take on a discord bot as their first project

i could've put into better terms

[carmine summit]

Wait?!?! This exists?!?!{...cur}

[woeful pike]

so what? part of top down learning is starting at a hard problem and breaking it down into pieces

[latent heron]

that's

a little different than not only learning how the Bot API works

but also learning a programming language for the first time itself

[woeful pike]

yes, it's an exciting way of learning programming. Difficult but legitimate

[latent heron]

i will respectfully disagree

[cinder patio]

You don't have to know how everything works at first

[woeful pike]

why do bot devs constantly want to put other devs down

let people learn however they wanna learn

[carmine summit]

no initial value

[quartz kindle]

ye i forgot

xd

[latent heron]

alright

[carmine summit]

not so "Tim", huh?

Tim would never forget something like that

[quartz kindle]

i've forgotten worse

proves that im not an AI

:^)

[carmine summit]

you can't fool us, Tim. We know you're an AI

[lost mauve]

You're all AIs

[lost mauve]

Huh, would it be a good idea to put it on a résumé, then?

[crimson vapor]

Any experience is ok to put on a resume. Whether you want that to be something an employer to see I think is the real thing

[restive furnace]

oh nice

[livid carbon]

thank

what do you use?

[woeful pike]

yes absolutely

[lost mauve]

yeah, it's def going to be a case by case basis

[crimson vapor]

as would anything

[woeful pike]

I put waifu-tierlist on my resume, it doesn't matter as much as you think it would

unless it's something like.. really weird

[umbral zealot]

lol I used the word "shit" 3x in my resume.

[woeful pike]

yo pog

[umbral zealot]

and "Speedwhoring"

[lost mauve]

???

[woeful pike]

[umbral zealot]

When you write your resume, be yourself, if your future employer doesn't like your honest resume they probably won't like you as a person....

[lost mauve]

man i've been making a super serious resume in latex, maybe the meta has changed

[umbral zealot]

This is from my own experience, at this point if your resume is "different" it gets more attention

[lost mauve]

# Experiences
- shitty internships no one cares about
- I've been making a heckin poggers Discord bot in Java, pls hire

[woeful pike]

I made mine in figma lol

[still umbra]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/639020919402135571.gif?v=1&size=64

that's life

[quartz kindle]

imagine having a 50 million downloads npm module in your resume

you check it out

its isThirteen

[long crow]

how does one export it to npm though, not really into publishing something to npm. just curious

[quartz kindle]

using npm publish

[carmine summit]

auctions.reduce((arr, cur) => {
    let found = arr.find(
      (arr) => arr.item_name === cur.item_name && arr.tier === cur.tier
    );
    if (found) {
      found.popularity++;
    } else {
      let item = { ...cur };
      item.popularity = 1;
      arr.push(item);
    }
    return arr;
  }, []);

This is too slow, anything I can do to optimize it?

[fierce ether]

const { Embed, FailureEmbed } = require('../../utils/');

works local but not on vps?

[lusty quest]

did you uploaded the file to the VPS?

[fierce ether]

yep

[lusty quest]

are you sure? bcs this is some common thing, you think you uploaded a file, try to fix an error for 2 hours just to find out you didnt uploaded the file

[fierce ether]

v14.15.4 btw

[quartz kindle]

well you could always not duplicate the items and modify the originals instead. any reason why you dont want to modify the originals?

its just adding a popularity property

[carmine summit]

I dont have any reason to not modify the originals

[lusty quest]

where is the path relative of the file where you call it to the failureEmbed.js?

[quartz kindle]

are names and tiers duplicated? like you have the same name in multiple tiers and the same tier in multiple names?

[fierce ether]

index.js

[carmine summit]

yes

[willow mirage]

is that a ftp thingy

[lusty quest]

the path not the name

[fierce ether]

what path?

[willow mirage]

/var/etc/ is a path

[lusty quest]

|Root
|->Index.js
  |-> Some Folder
    |-> Some Folder
      |->Failure Embed.js
```like this

[carmine summit]

I think the only way to optimize it is by removing {...}

[willow mirage]

for eaxmple

[fierce ether]

its broken down from src/commands and src/utils/index.js

[quartz kindle]

you can use an object instead of an array

objects have direct access, array.find has to loop over the full array every time

[lusty quest]

where is Failure Embed? in utils or commands?

[fierce ether]

utils

[lusty quest]

then you call the path wrong, you only need to move up one folder not 2

[fierce ether]

so how would it work on my pc?

and

[lusty quest]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fierce ether]

its

src/commands/<category>/file

[slender thistle]

did you read the second message I linked

[lusty quest]

if both files are in the same folder you can just use ./file

[quartz kindle]

a for loop is the fastest loop there is, but reduce is very fast too, its the fastest of all array loops like find filter map forEach etc

[young adder]

yes it's not about her, my problem

@slender thistle

[slender thistle]

Your bot was added to a queue

[young adder]

I have my boat attached and even voted myself but it doesn't show up when I throw it to others

[slender thistle]

and will have to be reviewed by bot reviewers

until then it's not available to be viewed by anyone who isn't listed as an owner of the bot

[young adder]

When will the review end?

[slender thistle]

if you read what the second message said...

See pins in #support

#support message this one specifically

[young adder]

How do I add coy to my bot after the review is over?

[quartz kindle]

coy?

[slender thistle]

code?

[young adder]

I am Turkish and it is a little late because I translate your messages

[slender thistle]

What do you mean by "coy"?

[young adder]

As I said I was going to write a code, not coy, I'm translating it

[lost mauve]

wait isn't that used for making app UI/UX? is your resume interactive? haha

[slender thistle]

So go write your code just like you would without being approved on top.gg

Top.gg is a bot listing website

Bots on top.gg are supposed to work BEFORE being listed

[blissful cliff]

question, how do you update your bot without downtime?

is there a way to do blue-green deployment without having double responses from your bot?

[woeful pike]

it's used for prototyping designs, you don't use figma to make apps

[carmine summit]

do you have any idea which is faster?

[lost mauve]

aah, alright

[quartz kindle]

reduce can be faster, depending on the situation

but not by much

[carmine summit]

I dont get it

should I use for loop instead for the loop mentioned above?

[quartz kindle]

not necessary

its fine to use reduce when it fits the situation

if you want to loop over an array and in some way combine everything into a single value, use reduce

reduce is different than other loops

find filter map forEach etc... all of them use for loops under the hood

but reduce doesnt

reduce uses a special Fold algorithm

[wraith minnow]

hey

someone can help

me

with the bot MEE6

bro is lagging so much

[pale vessel]

discord.gg/mee6

[wraith minnow]

yes that one

[pale vessel]

ask there, not here

[wraith minnow]

thanls

thanks

[lone nova]

Does anyone know how to send random gifs according to us like

We will put the gifs 10 bot must randomly send 1 of them

[thin echo]

I do that for my bot

What code do you use

py or js

[wraith minnow]

he uses js

hey can someone can give

me dank memer

support server

thanks

[tulip ledge]

Can someone explain why when I call this command the first time it logs 9 in the recipe (as u need 9 to craft it, wich is right) but when I do the cmd a second time it sais 81?

    let mostSimilar = this.mostSimilarModule(item);
    let toCraft = this.CraftHandler.getRecipe(mostSimilar);
    let recipe = toCraft.recipe.map(item => { return { itemid: item.itemid, amount: item.amount * amount }});
    console.log(toCraft.recipe)
    toCraft.recipe = recipe;
    console.log(recipe)

[thin echo]

How many commands do your bots have

Or is that a bad question to ask

[latent heron]

@slender thistle reaction translations has proved to be a difficult task

Discord formats flag unicodes in such a painful manner

Theyre not regular UTF-8 support in d.py

[earnest phoenix]

I want a helping dev for my project

[lament ruin]

@wraith minnow man, you can literally search it in the dank memer top.gg main page. it is right there

[latent heron]

So I have to encode, then change into a string name convention, then I can translate and plug in

Then re encode to the original version

[wraith minnow]

yes yes sorry i alredy did

[lament ruin]

you have it right there

[wraith minnow]

thanks bro

[tired panther]

Does someone know hoow to turn a normal object in a mongoose object?

[thin echo]

no?

[lament ruin]

what do you mean?

[slender thistle]

Poor you

[tired panther]

a mongoose object has in their objects, soem functions like .save()

[woeful pike]

mongoose objects represent a document in a collection, you can't turn an object into a mongoose object without saving it through mongoose first

also just ditch mongoose in general, it's shit

[tired panther]

let guild = this.cache.get(guildid);
                guild.time = false;
                guild.save().catch(e => console.log(`Could not update  ${e}`) );
``` I was trying this

[lament ruin]

what would you recommend instead of mongo?

[woeful pike]

mongodb + class-validator

or well, preferably not even mongodb but if you're gonna use mongo just use the regular driver

[lament stump]

https://sourceb.in/2NqNkvch93 if someone knows html, please help.

[livid carbon]

good job

did you try float:left;

[woeful pike]

don't use floats for layouts

[livid carbon]

hmm

grid?

flexbox?

[woeful pike]

flex here would work fine

[livid carbon]

imo css is just trying random crap until it works

[woeful pike]

yeah, if you don't know css lol

[livid carbon]

lol

[tulip ledge]

I don't like css tbh

[livid carbon]

use sass

ez fix

[tulip ledge]

it's a boring language

[livid carbon]

its a styling language!

[rocky lake]

Hello!
Quick question, my bot requires an admin ||person with administrator perms|| to set up some important variables to unlock the complete functionality for their server.
Will this effect my bot's verification time, or is there a chance by bot doesn't get verified at all?
PS: It is 809430343433453568

[lament ruin]

i think you need to create a schema of the object before hand

[livid carbon]

how interesting can it be!!

[tired panther]

😦 , then I have to fetch it again and save it ?

[tired panther]

already have

[woeful pike]

no you just use Schema.create() on the object

[rocky lake]

Xetera, is your status a lyric from a song?

[tired panther]

thats what I meant

[pale vessel]

would this help?

[latent heron]

slightly, yes

did something similar https://i.imgur.com/5khgnn1.png

[livid carbon]

i like how windows can't render flags

so annoying

[lament ruin]

use that function, pass in there the variables you want to update

[tired panther]

damn, I trashed my collection

MongoError: E11000 duplicate key error collection: mydb.data index: _id_ dup key: { _id: ObjectId('60153d6398c7b915fc29df62') }

lol

[lament ruin]

what

[tired panther]

thats the same <schema>.create()

[lament ruin]

i've never used that one

[tired panther]

this created new documents with the same Objectidkey and now I have the error lol
#development message

[woeful pike]

yeah mongodb is just trash, use a real database

[tired panther]

what would you recommend?

[woeful pike]

postgres is excellent

I mean this isn't necessarily a problem of "mongo bad" I just don't know what the problem is off the top of my head and it's probably some dumb mongoose thing anyways

[tired panther]

does it work it with mongodbatlas ? isnt it sql?

[woeful pike]

you don't run into these issues with the regular mongodb driver

[crimson vapor]

its because they created a doc with the same ID on a unique: true field

[woeful pike]

yes relational databases are good

[tulip ledge]

Why does this not work?

[woeful pike]

mongodb has a fairly niche application idk why every beginner uses it to store highly relational data

[tired panther]

how can I fix it?

[crimson vapor]

check if a document exists before you create it

[pale vessel]

0⃣

[woeful pike]

or you can use upsert

[crimson vapor]

in your code

before you save it

[tired panther]

so It did not create anything?

[crimson vapor]

the first time it did, the second time it errored

[crimson vapor]

this

[tired panther]

when searching , it just give me one value

[crimson vapor]

yes

why would it show 2?

[tired panther]

document already exist + "the first time it did" = 2

[crimson vapor]

no it errored because you are trying to create a new document with a unique field

which it can't do

it will always error

the issue isn't mongodb or mongoose, you are creating a document when you shouldn't be

[tired panther]

schema.create(guild) is it bc of this? guild is already a document

[cinder patio]

you should check if it exits before that or you could use upsert

[crimson vapor]

what do you think?

[lost wadi]

Hello, does anyone handle the ytsr-core module?

[pale vessel]

they haven't updated that in ages

it throws json error

[modest maple]

Can i tempt you to a cassandra insert?

[pale vessel]

you mean ytdl-core?

[tired panther]

with $set?

[modest maple]

That assumes it exists

[crimson vapor]

you should probably learn more about mongodb and mongoose

or even databases in general

[modest maple]

There is an upsert bool

[lament ruin]

I'm trying to make some href links on html to jump to specific parts on the page. I already got it working but instead on jumping to that part in the same tab it creates a new one.

[crimson vapor]

its literaly { upsert: true } as an option

[lament ruin]

Do you guys know the cause of this?

[quartz kindle]

in top.gg?

[lament ruin]

im already using the target="_self" attribute

[lament ruin]

yup

[quartz kindle]

you cant

[lost wadi]

I have a question and I don't know how to download the video

const ytsr = require("ytsr");
const ytdl = require("ytdl-core")

let query = args.join(" ");
    
    const res = await ytsr(query);
    const video = res.items.filter(i => i.type === "video")[0];
    const link = video.url;
    const download = ytdl(link, { filter: format => format.container === 'mp4' && format.qualityLabel === '480p'})
    console.log(download)

[tulip ledge]

how do I remove the reaction of a specific user again?

[lament ruin]

ah... welp.

[modest maple]

Well ya can

[lament ruin]

guess ill have to remove that

[modest maple]

My bot page is a great example of what you can do just gotta be determined enough

[quartz kindle]

for some reason top.gg adds target="_blank" to all <a> tags

[lament ruin]

i replied to an unrelated message xd

[lament ruin]

even if i specify target="_self"?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[lament ruin]

bruh

[quartz kindle]

well the reason is obvious

[modest maple]

Because it would make sense if they didn't do that

[quartz kindle]

they dont want people to leave the page

[lament ruin]

ah

[quartz kindle]

how did you do it?

[pale vessel]

he meant what he did with stars and stuff

[crimson vapor]

edit all of the html

ez

[modest maple]

Iframes, iframes everywhere

[tired panther]

I know how to use them on find but on schema.create() ?
this schema.create(guild, {upsert: true})

[crimson vapor]

why would upsert do anything on a create?

[quartz kindle]

ah well you can with iframes of course

[modest maple]

Scroll to is still limited like that though

Requires more jank

[tired panther]

where should I do it , in the schema?

the error was caused in that line

[crimson vapor]

iirc upsert is for updating

[tulip ledge]

how do I remove the reaction of a specific user again on a specific message?

[crimson vapor]

I could be very wrong

[pale vessel]

wow they finally fixed the problem with typings on mongoose

[crimson vapor]

finally?

pog

[quartz kindle]

it sucks because my top.gg description is an 800 line markdown with an index at the top... it works fine on github but doesnt work at all on top.gg

[pale vessel]

yes

[crimson vapor]

nice

[tired panther]

People: Paste Random Trash in their Desc to fullfill the minimum requirement
Tim: Why do I have just 800 lines?

[quartz kindle]

lul

[crimson vapor]

can cert replace body with an iframe?

[cinder patio]

Don't expect your bot to get invited to any servers if your description is tash

[quartz kindle]

thresh description

[quartz kindle]

anyone can use iframes

[crimson vapor]

but the entire site

not just the inside part

[quartz kindle]

nobody can do that

[pale vessel]

fuck mongoose

[pale vessel]

no

[crimson vapor]

LOL

[quartz kindle]

i mean you can, but you'll get kicked from top.gg

[pale vessel]

stop breaking on every update

fucking fuck

[crimson vapor]

discord cdn is slow for me

[lament ruin]

@modest maple i just saw you top.gg page

what the f

you even have some animations lmao

[tired panther]

  let guild = this.cache.get(guildid);
                schema.create(guild) 
                console.log(guild)
                guild.time = false;
                //guild.save( {upsert: true}).catch(e => console.log(`Could not update  ${e}`) );
                console.log(guild)
``` I did not even save it, but the error is coming

[lament ruin]

Are you hosting this?
https://topgg.crunchy-bot.live/home

[crimson vapor]

yeah

[tired panther]

@crimson vapor isnt this weird?

[lament ruin]

@modest maple

[crimson vapor]

yeah your code kinda seems useless

[pale vessel]

why the fuck does model.find() returns any instead of Schema

????????????????

they fucked it up

[crimson vapor]

.find() without anything should be Schema[] LOL

[modest maple]

Its on cloudflare but yeau

[crimson vapor]

right?

[pale vessel]

yeah

but no, it's any now

[crimson vapor]

thank you mongoose

[pale vessel]

what the fuck did they do

[lament ruin]

that's some dedication man

[pale vessel]

i'd have to cast my own

why

[modest maple]

i had some free time

[lament ruin]

hahah

[pale vessel]

do you have the same problem? @crimson vapor

[crimson vapor]

idk im on an old version of mongoose I think

sec

[pale vessel]

it broke since 5.12.0

now it's 5.12.2

[crimson vapor]

im onnnn\

umm

"mongoose": "^5.11.15",

yea

[pale vessel]

latest working for me is 5.11.18

[crimson vapor]

ok

I might update

but idk if its needed

[pale vessel]

check first

i wanna see if it's just me

[crimson vapor]

ok sedc

[pale vessel]

on their gh issues it seems to be for everyone else too

but apparently they "fixed" it in 5.12.2

[lament ruin]

It looks great! I would just change the background image or something. The white text is hard to read over some parts of the image

[pale vessel]

but it doesn't seem like it

[lost wadi]

no one?

[crimson vapor]

I don't use find()

[modest maple]

Yeah... Its on a todo list

[crimson vapor]

@pale vessel ill check fully when I can but atm it looks like its fine

[lament ruin]

An example of what i was mentioning

[crimson vapor]

typed and shit

[cinder patio]

That's unreadable

also a review*

[pale vessel]

@crimson vapor fixed my issue. i had to do ts model<Doc>( name, new Schema() ) instead ofts model( name, new Schema<Doc>() )

[crimson vapor]

hmmmm

that seems kinda redundant

[slender wagon]

how do i make a buitiful embed for discord on my website

[crimson vapor]

meta tags

iirc

[slender wagon]

ightys

[pale vessel]

otherwise it would say <prop> is does not exist on type Document<any>

[crimson vapor]

ig

you do a find() for your reminds?

[pale vessel]

yuh

i cache them on startup

[crimson vapor]

do you do a timeout or something

[pale vessel]

that's for checking

[crimson vapor]

oh

[pale vessel]

well anyway I'm the retarded one the whole time

[crimson vapor]

lol

[pale vessel]

why did they change it just like that though

i have a love and hate relationship with ts

[crimson vapor]

lol

I know how you feel

[opaque acorn]

How do I mention someone in the avatar command?

[lament ruin]

what does that even mean? avatar command?

[opaque acorn]

when i mention someone to see their avatar

I don't know how to make it show the avatar of the mentioned person

[obsidian anchor]

hi guys

do you guys allow your bot being added here?

[quartz kindle]

right now only bots that are requested by the community are added

you can see in #site-status the form for suggesting a bot

[green kestrel]

ive decided to do something really crazy!

[quartz kindle]

again?

[green kestrel]

aegis has some weird issues with its obtuse thread model that neither i or anyone else seems to be able to properly pin down

ive decided to make my own lightweight C++ discord lib instead

i want to keep the LOC way down... as few deps as possible... understand as much of it as possible

[quartz kindle]

ayy nice

[green kestrel]

and im going to make its native websocket speak erlpack

erlpack + c++ should be a sight to behold

plus discords already made a lib for processing erl in c++ 👍

[lament ruin]

big brain moment

[green kestrel]

[quartz kindle]

brain brain

[green kestrel]

im going to call it D++

the lib i mean

[quartz kindle]

if you're gonna use unordered maps anywhere i have a suggestion

[green kestrel]

im not sure if im going to have the time or ability to officially support it but i'll make all code open source

im listening @quartz kindle 😄

[rose tartan]

How do I make a per server reaction roles with mongodb(Im new to djs)

[quartz kindle]

https://github.com/martinus/robin-hood-hashing

this thing

[green kestrel]

hmm, is it just a hash function you drop into unordered_map?

[quartz kindle]

nah its the entire unordered map replacement

[green kestrel]

hmm

whats the gain

is it all about speed? or memory?

[quartz kindle]

robin_hood::unordered_map<int, int>

i've tested it with 10 million <int, int>

[modest maple]

textregexeq('\[email', description) Am i doing something stupidly wrong with this or smth? (PostgreSQL)

[quartz kindle]

used 5x less ram than std::unordered_map

[modest maple]

it works for textregexeq('\[email', title)

[quartz kindle]

and was 2-3x faster

[modest maple]

but not with description

[green kestrel]

hmm interesting

[quartz kindle]

the author made a huge ass benchmarking suite

comparing lots of mapping libs

let me show you

https://martin.ankerl.com/2019/04/01/hashmap-benchmarks-01-overview/

[modest maple]

google's swissmap is pretty cool

[quartz kindle]

there are like 20+ more efficient alternatives to std

its stupid

lmao

[opaque acorn]

How do I make when I mention someone with the avatar command it shows their avatar?

[modest maple]

usually though they come with a added cost

like some hashmaps like Fx are much faster but less cryptographically secure making them more prone to collisions and attacks

[tired panther]

const target = message.mentions.users.first() || message.author
target.avatarURL()

[modest maple]

never mind with this, i had the args the wrong way around lol

[earnest phoenix]

Error: Cannot find module './dist/main.js'

[green kestrel]

true, but the hint about why to use std is in the name... its STanDard

im trying to avoid pulling in deps

each dep is someone elses code i dont understand that may introduce issues, which is the problem ive had with websocketpp. although im still going to need nlohmann::json, for sending json to REST endpoints

[opaque acorn]

thanks

[earnest phoenix]

help me

[empty hollow]

hey

How do i make my discord bot run 24/7? (❌heroku)

[rose warren]

Use a cheap VPS or selfhost

[green kestrel]

get a vps

[quartz kindle]

why not something like rapidjson?

[green kestrel]

i dont like rapidjson

it came with sleepy_discord

[empty hollow]

no money

[rose warren]

Selfhost then

[green kestrel]

it does something really odd to the default new operator and allocator

probably to optimise speed

[quartz kindle]

there are a few other faster alternatives too apparently

[green kestrel]

speed isnt everything tbh

[modest maple]

often with hashmaps faster = less secure

[green kestrel]

when youre in C++ youll spend like 99.9% of your time waiting on i/o, no matter how crap your code is unless you do something really herp derp tastic

[quartz kindle]

for me performance is everything xd

[green kestrel]

the difference between two json libs probably wouldnt be noticable in speed until you get to like hundreds of millions of users

[modest maple]

FxHashmaps for you then if you got em

[opaque acorn]

TypeError: Cannot read property 'users' of undefined

[green kestrel]

im very wary of premature optimisation

for now, pick the libs etc im comfortable with and trust

and then i can address issues if and when there are any

[rose warren]

Spoken like a true developer of a cache-free Discord lib 😂

[green kestrel]

lol

[stoic viper]

what do you guys think are the basics someone should know before building a bot ;-;

[green kestrel]

i also want to make a lib that means as little rewriting of my bot as possible

so im aiming for structs to have the same meber names etc as aegis

so i can just change namespaces, and some initilalisation code

[quartz kindle]

is that rust?

[tired panther]

its

[slender wagon]

is there a way you could change the embed color with meta tags

[opaque acorn]

ok

[tired panther]

no it is not

[opaque acorn]

xdddd

TypeError: Cannot read property 'members' of undefined

[tired panther]

let target;
if(message.mentions.users.size){
target = message.mentions.users.first().user 
}else{
 target = message.author
}

@opaque acorn this should work

[opaque acorn]

I substitute the old thing for this?

[pale vessel]

one liner

[tired panther]

you can make it, but they wont understand it

[pale vessel]

I won't

[tired panther]

const target = message.mentions.users.first()? message.mentions.users.first().user : message.author

[modest maple]

Well Its a map in rust but the hashing algo isnt rust specific

Well, it was made for rust

[pale vessel]

Never mind
const target = message.mentions.users.first() ?? message.author;

[modest maple]

it does 8 Bytes at a time VS 1 Byte at a time which is the normal

which makes it incredibly quick

but at the cost of being not secure

[quartz kindle]

but is the algorithm an actual hashtable algorithm or is it just the hashing algorithm?

[modest maple]

It has a hashtable algo, but you'd need to hunt through the rust source todo that

or you can just call rust from C++

[quartz kindle]

as far as hashing algorithms go, the playing field is pretty large

[modest maple]

yeah

[quartz kindle]

there's a lot of stuff out there

[modest maple]

overall i just Use google's swissmap

with ahash

[quartz kindle]

have you checked out xxHash?

[tired panther]

isnt this node 14?

[pale vessel]

Yeah

[modest maple]

I havent no, dont really need that much speed tbh

The swish map is a great mix of speed while being secure

[pale vessel]

const target = message.mentions.users.first() || message.author;

[quartz kindle]

google swissmap === abseil's hash tables no?

[modest maple]

i believe it is yes

[quartz kindle]

they are tested in the benchmark link i posted before

[slender wagon]

color on embeds with metatags anyone has a clue?

[quartz kindle]

they are pretty good yes

[modest maple]

https://abseil.io/blog/20180927-swisstables

[slender wagon]

<meta name="theme-color" content="#03fcdf">
``` tried this but it doesn't work

[opaque acorn]

i always get TypeError: Cannot read property 'users' of undefined

[pale vessel]

Then message might not be what you think it is

[tired panther]

thats what I suggested.
first option needs .user.avatarURl()

[pale vessel]

Message should always have the mentions property

[quartz kindle]

i liked robin_hood::unordered_map the most for performance, and tsl::sparse_map for memory usage

[rose warren]

What are you trying to do?

[quartz kindle]

but it depends a lot on the data types you give it

[opaque acorn]

@tired panther
I give you the command?

[quartz kindle]

10 million <uint64, double> took 2 seconds to insert and used ~300mb ram with robin_hood
3-4 seconds and ~200mb ram with tsl,
~5 seconds and 1100mb ram with std

[wheat valve]

How would I be able to get the username of the server owner with the owner ID? I'm using Eris

[quartz kindle]

fetch it

i believe eris uses guild.fetchMember()?

[green kestrel]

yay, i have a connection! 😄

now just gotta figure out this rammel lol

[opaque acorn]

` const Discord = require("discord.js");
const client = new Discord.Client();

module.exports.run = (client, message, args) => {
const target = message.mentions.users.first() || message.author;
const embedavatar = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setTitle("Mostrando su avatar.")
.setImage(target.displayAvatarURL({ size: 4096, dynamic: true }))
.setColor("RANDOM")
.setTimestamp();

message.reply(embedavatar);
};

module.exports.help = {
name: "avatar",
aliases: ["av"]
};
`

[quartz kindle]

xD

which websockets lib are you using?

[green kestrel]

im not 😄

i rolled my own

thats what i mean about being able to understand it

[quartz kindle]

you're doing pure tcp?

[earnest phoenix]

All languages?

[green kestrel]

291 lines

yup

[quartz kindle]

amazing

[green kestrel]

well openssl, tcp

[earnest phoenix]

might be an intents issue

[green kestrel]

and on top of that, i looked at this bare bones php webscoket, to see how to talk to the socket, plus read the RFC https://github.com/paragi/PHP-websocket-client/blob/master/websocket_client.php

ofc my code is C++, im porting it as i learn it

[quartz kindle]

big brain

[opaque acorn]

?

[earnest phoenix]

in the discord developer portal

enable the guild members intent on your bot app

[quartz kindle]

what is the issue

[opaque acorn]

this ?

SERVER MEMBERS INTENT

[cosmic forum]

Hi, anyone know how I can get the url of a new Discord.MessageAttachment()? (discord.js)

[quartz kindle]

if your error is "cannot read property users of undefined"

then it has nothing to do with intents

[thin echo]

How do you do embeds on python?

[quartz kindle]

wdym

after sending it?

[cosmic forum]

You can get it if you attach it to an embed, then send the embed with a .then() to get the url but I can't remember off the top of my head the exact code.

[thin echo]

What is the code?

[quartz kindle]

you mean to add the attachment to an embed?

[wheat valve]

In the docs it only has fetchMembers, using it I get object Promise

[quartz kindle]

yes its a promise

[cosmic forum]

Ah ok, I have a canvas buffer, and I want to attach it as a .setImage() option.

[quartz kindle]

you need to resolve it

[cosmic forum]

yes

[pale vessel]

make sure you use fetchMembers({ userIDs: ["id"] }) or it'll fetch the whole member list

[quartz kindle]

embed.attachFiles([{attachment: canvasBuffer, name: "image.png"}]).setImage("attachment://image.png")

[earnest phoenix]

yes

oh wait nvm

[rose warren]

Tim beat me 😂

[thin echo]

What is the code for embeds on python?

[earnest phoenix]

tim answered correctly, didn't know

[cosmic forum]

Ah ok, thanks.

[modest maple]

if it's d.py its a discord.Embed class

[thin echo]

thx

[pale vessel]

what if it's hikari doe

[onyx hare]

ive forgotten how timeout works
message.delete{timeout: 300} returns as "There but never declared"
forgot the brackets im dumb

[rose warren]

But that's not the "url" of the image once it's posted to Discord if that's what you're looking for. That's how to attach your canvas buffer to the embed but it won't give you the Discord CDN url if that's what you want. You have to get that after sending the embed in the channel.

[cosmic forum]

Oh ok

[green kestrel]

@quartz kindle https://github.com/brainboxdotcc/DPP
heres what ive done so far

it connects and receives the first erlpack message

[opaque acorn]

i activate it?

[green kestrel]

the way i see it, the simpler it is the less there is to go wrong

[earnest phoenix]

na found out it has nothing to do with members intents

[lusty quest]

its a proven concept tho,
look at the AK-47 its super simple, and it just works

[opaque acorn]

Then what do I do?

[green kestrel]

yeah @lusty quest i thought websocketpp was a proven concept. its full of thread safety issues

😦

and sometimes it just uh... forgets to reconnect

[lusty quest]

rip

[thin echo]

I need help with something in my code

embed = discord.Embed(title=random.choice(starter_hugtext), description=random.choice(hugoptions))

random.choice(hugoptions) <- this is my gif, but in the embed it just shows the link

how do I fix it so that it shows the gif

[lusty quest]

pls use codeblocks, it makes it easier to read

also what language did you use?

[wheat valve]

Thanks

[wheat valve]

Thanks

[thin echo]

python

ik

I could have used an api

[lusty quest]

i cant help with py sorry

[thin echo]

ok

[lusty quest]

but i could try, i guess the embed constructor works similar to JS

[thin echo]

no its ok

[lusty quest]

you probably dont want to use description for images

[thin echo]

I was just trying embeds out

[thin echo]

what should I use then

[lusty quest]

there should be probably a image propertie

[thin echo]

ok

[lusty quest]

but better look into the docs of the API wrapper you use

[quartz kindle]

i dont understand most of that but looks nice xD

[green kestrel]

its about as low level as you can get 😄

[dusky lagoon]

Ok so im trying to get data from a .json file from a website

const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');
const fetch = require('node-fetch');
module.exports = {
  name: 'pokemon',
  
  run: async (message, args, client) => {
   const  content = await fetch('https://pickrandom.com/ajax/random-pokemon-generator/getdata/?duplicate=false&numbers=1&national_of_pokemon=national&type1_of_pokemon=any&type2_of_pokemon=any&legendary_of_pokemon=true&nfe_of_pokemon=true&pokemon_info=false&format=json')
    .then(res => res.json())
    .catch(() => null);

    if (!content){
      return message.channel.send(`Server Error 5xx: Advice .json is currently down!`);
    };
    let pokemon = content[0].list.name
    return message.channel.send(
        new MessageEmbed()
        .setColor('#EAA5EA')
        .setTitle(pokemon)
        .setImage(``)
        .setFooter(`Advice | \©️${new Date().getFullYear()} `)
      );
    
  }
};``` and the error is ```(node:58804) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'list' of undefined```

and this is how the .json file looks like ```js
{"list":[{"id":"765","name":"Florges","id_pokemon":"671","image":"Florges_01.png","type":"FAIRY","type2":"","species":"Garden"}],"list_to_save":"765","message":""}```

[quartz kindle]

maybe one day i'll experiment with that on node

since you can use raw tcp on node

abstracted to js of course

but still

[green kestrel]

yeah

might be interesting to embed this as a node lib using native code

[quartz kindle]

ye

i thought about using n-api to attach a native websocket to node instead of using the ws lib

[crimson vapor]

is this any good yet?

[quartz kindle]

but idk if its worth it

one of the best websockets lib in c++ is server-only

they gave up on clients because client side is whatever

only server side matters for performance and efficiency

[lusty quest]

should be content.list[0].name

[dusky lagoon]

let me try

[lusty quest]

if you work with json i suggest to use something to visualize the path inside of it

[dusky lagoon]

ohw yeah thats smart

[lusty quest]

https://jsonpathfinder.com/ this site helped me a lot with finding the path

[thin echo]

How do you do the cool thing where you put your code in a box like this

is it this this

[lusty quest]

3x `

[thin echo]

ok

[lusty quest]

this is also the codeblock ive mentioned

[thin echo]

this

[lusty quest]

you can also define a syntax highlighting with it

[rose warren]

my.code():

[earnest phoenix]

mobile doesn't officially support syntax highlighting, if im not wrong

[lusty quest]

Mobile clients are a hot mess

[rose warren]

It doesn't yet. But you can still type using syntax highlighting to help those using PC.

[earnest phoenix]

@thin echo

@humble gyro

@modern sable

[modern sable]

what's wrong?

[earnest phoenix]

i

have a prob

[dense rune]

you

yo

[earnest phoenix]

i submitted

my bot

and then no response

[dense rune]

anyone wanna join my new server

[earnest phoenix]

it is a moneth

[modern sable]

The process takes 2-3 weeks, check pins in #support

[earnest phoenix]

hey

a month

[modern sable]

Oh wait

@earnest phoenix You need to add your bot again at https://top.gg/bot/new

[earnest phoenix]

ohhhh

ok

[modern sable]

You added it during our database migration which meant it never got actually added

Sorry about that

[earnest phoenix]

what the

ok

np

i will do it

agaian

[crimson vapor]

been there, done that

[thin echo]

Yes?

It’s raining so hard

The rain is bouncing up like 2 feet in the air

Brb

[earnest phoenix]

oh

great

[tired panther]

``` The error is coming from mongo db

[summer torrent]

"duplicate key error"

[tired panther]

I am not inserting anything lul

*any document

[cinder patio]

you definitely are

[tired panther]

hmmm.....okay fixed it.
I heard from something like Object.assign()
can I use this for converting a normal object in a mongoose object?

I just want to update one field with my given object "guild"

guild.time = false
guild.save()

but guild must be a mongoose object to use .save()
ping me when somebody has a idea

[lyric mountain]

some do

like, sometimes codeblocks get highlighted on mobile

[earnest phoenix]

Discord mobile supports syntax highlighting for a few languages
