[boreal iron]

Well then 401 means missing permissions

[snow urchin]

i KNOW

but it HAS permissions

[boreal iron]

The Authorization header must be a Bot token (belonging to the same application used for authorization), and the bot must be a member of the guild with CREATE_INSTANT_INVITE permission.

Checked that?

[snow urchin]

yes

[boreal iron]

Checked that as well?

If using Gateway Intents, the GUILD_MEMBERS intent will be required to receive this event.

[snow urchin]

yup

https://i.callumdev.pw/zuuwo.png

getting this now

[sterile lantern]

const casea = await punishments.findOne({ CaseID: args[0] });```

how come this returns null

i did +viewcase 1

thats a valid case

[shell crest]

how can I fix thiss

[woeful pike]

const casea = await punishments.findOne({ "Punishments.CaseID": args[0] });

[pale vessel]

isn't args[0] a string?

[pale vessel]

they're using mongoose so i think their way should work as long as case id is a number

[sterile lantern]

caseID is a number

o

wait

[pale vessel]

sorry, args[0]

[sterile lantern]

hm

[pale vessel]

not case id

[sterile lantern]

wouldnt it still work regardless

if args[0] was 1

[pale vessel]

how about postgres

[woeful pike]

uh I don't think mongoose magically checks subdocuments

[tribal oriole]

where is dank meme?

[pale vessel]

oh wtf

[boreal iron]

Try to replace the oath url by a generated one in your dev portal of discord (of your application)
With: scope = bot & permissions = insta invite

[pale vessel]

yeah do it like xet or { Punishments: { CaseID: args[0] } }

i didn't see the picture

[snow urchin]

what... no

[sterile lantern]

it stillreturns null

still returns*

const casea = await punishments.findOne({ "Punishments.CaseID": args[0] }); ```

[woeful pike]

mongoose cares about types so you have to cast to a number

or just mongodb in general, not mongoose

[sterile lantern]

cast to a number?

wym

[woeful pike]

look it up

[sterile lantern]

so like, Number(args[0])

[snow urchin]

bump, someone other than the other guy help 🙂

[sterile lantern]

idk cuz if args[0] is a string then it probs wouldnt owrk

[pale vessel]

yeah

[sterile lantern]

ayy works

but now to display the info

case.map wont work

case.UserID

hmm

yep

[woeful pike]

findOne returns the entire document, not the subdocument you filtered by

[sterile lantern]

its casea.UserID

huh

it only returned the case ID 1

ah wait nvm

i only had one case ID in

oof

so how would i return subdoc

confusion,

if i am using the case ID to find it

then why is it returning case ID's that don't match args[0]

[pale vessel]

that finds a doc that includes the case id provided inside its punishments

[sterile lantern]

o

its in an array

so couldnt i just

[pale vessel]

the whole doc

[sterile lantern]

filter the array

[pale vessel]

yeah since it's guaranteed to include the case id

[sterile lantern]

{
  Punishments: [
    {
      PunishType: 'Warn',
      Date: 'Mar 29, 2021, 4:28:23 PM',
      Moderator: '526424692366639125',
      CaseID: 1,
      Reason: 'ahaha'
    },
    {
      PunishType: 'Warn',
      Date: 'Mar 29, 2021, 4:48:49 PM',
      Moderator: '526424692366639125',
      CaseID: 2,
      Reason: 'NO'
    },
    {
      PunishType: 'Warn',
      Date: 'Mar 29, 2021, 4:48:51 PM',
      Moderator: '526424692366639125',
      CaseID: 3,
      Reason: 'BYE'
    }
  ],```

so do i just filter casea

[pale vessel]

you can just use find()

you only need case id 1, no?

[sterile lantern]

yeah

[pale vessel]

yeah just use array.find()

[sterile lantern]

Punishments.find

but with what filter

[pale vessel]

a matching case id with the arg

[sterile lantern]

const casea = await punishments.findOne({ "Punishments.CaseID": Number(args[0]) });

so just this but punishments.find

[pale vessel]

casea.Punishments.find()?

casea is the doc that includes the punishments and one of them matches the provided case id

you get me?

[sterile lantern]

let br =  casea.Punishments.find(Number(args[0]))```

[pale vessel]

you need to provide a function

[sterile lantern]

wait no that wouldnt work

yeah

hmm

[woeful pike]

you can also use a mix of $unwind and $match

if you only want to return the filtered subdocument

[sterile lantern]

what function would i use to match the number

function checkCase(Number(args[0]))

hmm

[woeful pike]

uhh I think it's something like

db.$aggregate([{
  "$unwind": "Punishments"
}, {
  "$match": {
    "Punishments.CaseID": Number(args[0])
  }
}, {
  "$project": { "Punishments": 1 }
}])

[clever notch]

Hi

[woeful pike]

mongodb is overly complicated for doing nested querying

[sterile lantern]

so that would return

just the info associated with case ID 1?

also whats the 1 here for
"$project": { "Punishments": 1 }

[woeful pike]

you'd get a Punishments key with just the subdocument that matches the given filter

[clever notch]

Can you please give me an webcahin batchfile coz i got errors

[woeful pike]

1 means to include the given key and exclude everything else

[rare forum]

i want to make a discord bot send a message someone sent earlier but add something to it.
with discord.js

[sterile lantern]

db.$aggregate is not a function

is db defined as mongoose or the schema

well i tried both, still doesnt work

[woeful pike]

oh it's without the dollar sign I think

this won't work if you're on mongodb atlas btw

[sterile lantern]

is db defined a-

rip

[woeful pike]

they don't allow you to use real mongodb features on the free tier lol

[sterile lantern]

how would i find it via an array then

casea.Punishments.find(

[woeful pike]

array.find with the same predicate

[sterile lantern]

"Punishments.CaseID": Number(args[0])```

this?

[woeful pike]

yes, convert that to js

[sterile lantern]

what?

is that not js?

[woeful pike]

that's not how you pass a callback into find

you have to change it a bit

aha ok cool this is how you do it

db.aggregate([
  { "$unwind": "Punishments" },
  { "$match": { "Punishments.CaseID": Number(args[0]) } },
  { "$replaceRoot": { newRoot: "Punishments" }
}])

pretty shitty

[sterile lantern]

what is db defined as?

mongoose or the schema

[woeful pike]

it's still not going to work for you because you're using a free tier lol

[sterile lantern]

oooooof

[woeful pike]

aggregates are super powerful, if you're gonna use mongodb it doesn't make sense to not use them so mongodb atlas is pretty pointless

you're forced to duplicate the search logic instead

[sterile lantern]

for the find, what would i need to do

[ornate otter]

This error just started happening out of no where

it used to work like 10 minutes ago

and yesterday too

[woeful pike]

it's just regular find, go look up examples

[sterile lantern]

array.find(u => u.discriminator === '1000');```

like this?

[woeful pike]

why would you ask me when you have a javascript interpreter in front of you

[sterile lantern]

hmm true

[ornate otter]

cus xetera is big brain?

[quartz kindle]

big bren

[sterile lantern]

AYY i got it

:D

[pure stream]

Hey i have a bot and I want to make it so it can do math but I dont know how to get it to. How would i do that?

[feral skiff]

What does a database do for discord bots?

[lament rock]

if anyone knows the pg client on npm, I'm trying to use prepared statements and select a column where it's LIKE a value and I'm not sure how to use both the wildcards and prepared index identifiers. I tried LIKE $1% and that gave a syntax error. Any help is appreciated

[pure stream]

python

ok thanks ill try it

how come case id returns undefined

i tried data.CaseID

nvm

i just did cid.Inc for it

[sterile lantern]

that file doesnt exist is what it's saying

[drifting wedge]

how do i delete a message in dpy?

[hazy horizon]

How do i make it look for a different file

[sterile lantern]

you fix the path..

i'm assuming your using VSC or atom?

or a code editor

of some sorts

[hazy horizon]

yes

[full orchid]

uh

[hazy horizon]

where do I fix the path?

@sterile lantern

[sterile lantern]

uh

im not sure

find your bot.js file in windows explorer

and copy the path

oh wait

i think the issue is

that you dont have bot.js in that folder

[hazy horizon]

ah

I dont even have a file called bot.js

[sterile lantern]

thats why

 let br =  casea.Punishments.find(c => c.CaseID === Number(args[0]))```

how would i delete this now

like remove the entry from the db

[hazy horizon]

fixed 👍

[earnest phoenix]

I have successfully install phpmyadmin but when i go to localhost/phpmyadmin, is a blank page

how can i do?

[sterile lantern]

 let br =  casea.Punishments.remove(c => c.CaseID === Number(args[0]))```

i tried this

but it doesnt delete from db

[prisma wren]

https://sourceb.in/054KyhQ2eX when i node it, the terminal says it's online and it comes online like it should but when i try to test a command, it doesn't work. The terminal doesn't even say smth is wrong like normal. I'm using JavaScript

[quartz kindle]

message.content.slice(prefix.lenght).split(/ +/);

length

[prisma wren]

i feel so dumb rn, thanks

[quartz kindle]

what db are you using? usually delete/remove methods are based on a key, not a function

.remove(id)

or whatever key you saved it with

[graceful shore]

how can i fix this?

const channel = member.guild.channels.cache.find(ch => ch.name === "welcome");

(it isnt cached)

[sterile lantern]

mongo

[vivid fulcrum]

the channel is not cached? you'll have to fetch the whole guild

[hazy horizon]

what does this mean?

[sterile lantern]

install node

[opal plank]

gonna be honest, use lavalink for voice

actually

i played with opus

dont do it

[vivid fulcrum]

lavalink is garbage

[opal plank]

its finicky as fuck

[graceful shore]

ok then

[sterile lantern]

I tried .remove but it doesn’t delete the warning

[opal plank]

better use trash lavalink than dealing with connections manually

[vivid fulcrum]

lavalink is good enough for people who really have no clue what they're doing

[opal plank]

indeed, i agree

[hazy horizon]

I have it

[opal plank]

but its a lot easier to fuck with than manual connections

its finicky as fuck

raw opus i mean

[hazy horizon]

i did the right one, was i supposed to do the left one?

[vivid fulcrum]

i got it working within an hour

[opal plank]

i sent you last time JUST the problems of INSTALLING it

[vivid fulcrum]

yeah well, that's because node™️

[opal plank]

afterwards it got worse

really worse

handling connections is really delicate

[vivid fulcrum]

doing native addons in node sucks so much

you need 3 different environments

[opal plank]

i had manage to install opusscript and get it running

after 30 minutes in, i said fuck it and went with lavalink

could've done it no problem with opus

the issue is the errors and de-syncs

its insanely infurating dealing with all of that

[snow urchin]

https://i.callumdev.pw/c2vxz.png
https://i.callumdev.pw/h4crm.png
Why am I getting this error?
I have the right scopes, bot has CREATE_INSTANT_INVITE/ADMINISTRATOR permissions in the guild, I got the right access token and bot authorization is correct

[vivid fulcrum]

the desyncing is more than likely a product of mistimed packets

but oh well

[opal plank]

its still a problem that needs to be fixed

and i didnt wanna deal with it

in all honesty

[graceful shore]

how do i do this again 😅

[opal plank]

COULD =/= SHOULD

[vivid fulcrum]

guild#fetch()

[graceful shore]

thought so

[opal plank]

would've prob spent around 3 or 4h properly setting it up

[vivid fulcrum]

it's a promise btw

so you should probably await it

[opal plank]

@snow urchin wrong

axios already parses the payload for you

[pure stream]

How do i make messages embed?

[snow urchin]

ignore the axios part, its actually node-fetch

[opal plank]

you can also call axios.post() instead

[snow urchin]

switched from axios to node-fetch cause axios created issues somehow

[opal plank]

cuz you are trying to json() something that is already json

[pure stream]

also how would i make a list without it being screwed up

oop

sorry forgot it had an invite in it

[vivid fulcrum]

depends which library

[snow urchin]

wut lol

[graceful shore]

i mean i know u can do guild.fetch but i dont really know how to get the channel by doing that

[vivid fulcrum]

well

you said the channel is not in cache

[pure stream]

discord.py

[vivid fulcrum]

if it's not in cache, you have to fetch the guild

[opal plank]

let { data } = await axios.post('hhtps://123.com', {data: {/*body here*/}}).catch(() => { data: null });

use something like this instead

[snow urchin]

not using axios

[graceful shore]

so i cant get the channel?

[snow urchin]

said this already

[opal plank]

then why u put axios there

[vivid fulcrum]

once you fetched the guild, you can then query the channels as they're going to be in cache

[snow urchin]

cause it WAS axios, but axios was being annoyin so switch to node-fetch

just didnt update var name

[opal plank]

axios is better than node my dude

[vivid fulcrum]

discord doesn't expose an endpoint to get just the channels of the guild, you have to fetch the whole guild

[snow urchin]

i know, but it was being a right nob

[opal plank]

it has proper error catching and parses the payload for you

also why you doing a POST to a member?

[snow urchin]

its put

i have PUT

not post

[opal plank]

ah right

[snow urchin]

dk where u got that from

😄

[opal plank]

you trying this?

[snow urchin]

mhmm

done your axios code, getting bad request now

[opal plank]

cuz its data{}

not body:{}

[snow urchin]

https://i.callumdev.pw/gwxkd.png

oh wait

shh im blind

[graceful shore]

uhhhhhhhhhh my small brain is dumb

[snow urchin]

@opal plank https://i.callumdev.pw/hytr0.png
now getting 401 unauthorized :/

[vivid fulcrum]

although, if you're using regular djs, all channels should be in cache at all times

[graceful shore]

i cant enable intents

[opal plank]

idk if the acces_token is 1 time use

[snow urchin]

its a new at

[vivid fulcrum]

receiving channels, or rather guilds, isn't a privileged intent

[opal plank]

hmmmmm

im running out of ideas in all honesty

[graceful shore]

using const channel = member.guild.channels.cache.find(ch => ch.name === "welcome"); requires intents tho doesnt it

[vivid fulcrum]

no it doesn't

[graceful shore]

wtf why isnt it working now then

[vivid fulcrum]

i don't know

it's your code

debug it

[opal plank]

@graceful shore you using vsc?

[graceful shore]

i didnt do anything to the code

[opal plank]

visual studio code

[graceful shore]

no probably should be

[opal plank]

i mean your editor

is it visual studio code?

this

[snow urchin]

https://i.callumdev.pw/f7gao.gif

[graceful shore]

no

[opal plank]

what are you using then?

[graceful shore]

notepad XD

[opal plank]

YIKES

download vsc

and start using that instead

[graceful shore]

i have it lol

[royal herald]

is node-fetch is better then request?

[opal plank]

still trying to think of what can be causing that tbh

[graceful shore]

oh turns out i do have visual studio code, i thought i only had the 2017 version installed

[snow urchin]

well, with node-fetch and stringifying body I got passed 401 error cause it worked, but had another error that made 0 sense cause everything was fine
this entire thing is confusing me lol

[opal plank]

updtae it and use that instead

[opal plank]

since this is raw api, you could ask in ddevs for more specific onto this

[graceful shore]

i have it

[opal plank]

discord.gg/discord-developers

fuck whats the thing

[snow urchin]

loool

[pure stream]

how do you make the bot respond with embed

[opal plank]

there we go

[small tangle]

developers?

oh already

[graceful shore]

im in it

[opal plank]

now read this

[graceful shore]

ok so i have my code in visual code.... now what lmao

[opal plank]

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging

read that

[small tangle]

man when i see the JS, im really missing nice template strings

[opal plank]

you'll never have questions regarding why is this not working again

cuz you can see your code real-time

[graceful shore]

ok

[snow urchin]

this reminds me of the time erwin struggled for ages to get the debugger working on my vscode, then just.. gave up

LOL

[graceful shore]

i have no errors tho

[opal plank]

it doesn need errors to work

[opal plank]

well, im patient, but im no buddah

[boreal iron]

Erwin’s trying...

[opal plank]

[graceful shore]

so what am i looking for

[opal plank]

you debug your code, if something doesnt work like you thought, debug it there

[graceful shore]

this is all that is in the console, nothing else

[opal plank]

you didnt read the guide at all did you?

you put a breakpoint into stuff you want to debug

[graceful shore]

ok

[snow urchin]

ok at erwin giving me wrong axios code now getting 403 error, thats.. progress

[opal plank]

wait what/?

[snow urchin]

https://i.callumdev.pw/37b40.png

this works

but now getting 403

[sour flame]

who uses notepad

to edit code

[graceful shore]

me

[sour flame]

how???

[graceful shore]

how do i use breakpoints i cant figure it out

[lyric mountain]

language?

oh, node

[graceful shore]

u asking what im using?

[lyric mountain]

already figured it out, node right?

[graceful shore]

yeah

discord.js

[snow urchin]

e

[lament rock]

The access token is probably invalid and needs refreshed

Or it's as simple as the fact that request bodies need to be a string

[sour flame]

I want to know how to make it so you can only buy 1 pc here code ```js

@client.command()
async def bag(ctx):
await open_account(ctx.author)
user = ctx.author
users = await get_bank_data()
try:
bag = users[str(user.id)]["bag"]
except:
bag = []

em = discord.Embed(title = "Bag")
for item in bag:
    name = item["item"]
    amount = item["amount"]

    em.add_field(name = name, value = amount)  
    
await ctx.send(embed = em)  

async def buy_this(user,item_name,amount):
item_name = item_name.lower()
name_ = None
for item in mainshop:
name = item["name"].lower()
if name == item_name:

break

if name_ == None:
    return [False,1]

    index = 0
    t = None
    for thing in users[str(user.id)]["bag"]:

        if n == item_name:
            old_amt = thing["amount"]
            new_amt = old_amt + amount
            users[str(user.id)]["bag"][index]["amount"] = new_amt
            t = 1
            break
        index+=1 
    if t == None:
        obj = {"item":item_name , "amount" : amount}
        users[str(user.id)]["bag"].append(obj)
except:
    obj = {"item":item_name , "amount" : amount}
    users[str(user.id)]["bag"] = [obj]        
with open("mainbank.json","w") as f:
    json.dump(users,f)
await update_bank(user,cost*-1,"wallet")
return [True, "Worked"]

async def update_bank(user, change = 0, mode = "wallet"):

with open("mainbank.json", "w") as f:
json.dump(users, f)
bal = (users[str(user.id)]["wallet"],users[str(user.id)]["bank"])
return bal

[vivid fulcrum]

consider using not json

[sour flame]

ye I gave up on db

[lament rock]

json is not a database

[sour flame]

ik

I just want to make it so that you can only buy 1 pc

[lament rock]

I believe you'd get more mileage out of learning SQL statements and use a database like MariaDB or Postgres.

[sour flame]

Ok

[arctic epoch]

Guys

I also want to make a bot :)

[graceful shore]

i have no idea what im doing

[arctic epoch]

Drako is helping me rn

Thx for help

I will ask ya later

[long crow]

Almost everything, since the documentation is mostly autogenerated, and hard to get support

[graceful shore]

most i have got is this const channel = (await member.guild.fetch())

[snow urchin]

no, its already authorized by this point

[earnest phoenix]

when i change the page it a tag to the user. what should i do?

[graceful shore]

can someone help i have no idea what im doing

[opal plank]

well, tell me what you need help with, intellisense should tell you most stuff, but if you got a question about detritus im happy to answer, since i've been using it for a while now

[long crow]

The very first step, understanding from where to where on documentation

[opal plank]

theres 2 places you should seek to understand it

[long crow]

like if I wanted the same thing as <message>.channel.send

[opal plank]

its the same

but createMessage()

[long crow]

I donno where would I start looking

[opal plank]

instead of .send()

<message>.channel.createMessage()

are you using typescript?

[long crow]

no

[opal plank]

you should, let me show you why

@long crow behold typescript and its intellisense with auto-complete

[unreal estuary]

does auto complete not work with js

what

[opal plank]

if you got the plugins for it, should, but ts offers integrated docs out of the gate

[unreal estuary]

ah

i havent rlly looked into typescript b4

maybe i will

[opal plank]

if you code on js, you should 100000% move to ts

ts IS javascript

but better

in almost every sense

[unreal estuary]

ok

[opal plank]

can send you a link if you want to know more about it

[unreal estuary]

thx

[opal plank]

np

[unreal estuary]

lol

(sorry late to this)
not sure what types of DB you have tried in the past, but one that I find very straight forward for python is SQLite with a library called peewee.

You can download a DB browser like this one (https://sqlitebrowser.org/) and create a DB file, then configure your database however you want (you could just have one column for user ID's that have a PC), then using peewee's tool called pwiz (http://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/playhouse.html#pwiz), you can run a command that creates a python file with your entire database structured in the form of classes and variables. From there, you can use peewee's querying operators (things like select, from, etc) along with the name of the database model to easily get things in list form.

Sorry if this isn't at all useful, but I figured I would just share this as it's been way easier for me to configure compared to other methods

[arctic epoch]

hmm

guys

i ned help

@client.command()
async def 'name'(ctx):
ctx.send('Text')

what should i type in ctx

[lusty atlas]

Hmm

[arctic epoch]

ya

im starter

[lusty atlas]

Idk

[arctic epoch]

idk anything

bruh

[lusty atlas]

I'm kinda started

[arctic epoch]

oh

me too

lol

[lusty atlas]

I already made a bot

[arctic epoch]

oh

[lusty atlas]

But idk ctx thingy

[arctic epoch]

oh

hmm

k

cya

[lusty atlas]

Type any

Like type the bot name

[arctic epoch]

hmm?

oh

hmm

k

wait

[lusty atlas]

Any examle

[arctic epoch]

oh hmm

[lusty atlas]

Example*

[arctic epoch]

lemme test

bro i use python

[lusty atlas]

Oh

I use JavaScript

[graceful shore]

@opal plank i think i found the problem

client.on('guildMemberAdd', async member => { }); just wont do anything

same with remove

it wont even log "member"

so strange

[opal plank]

@graceful shore cuz you arent doing anything with the code

whats inside the brackets?

also

do you have intents enabled?

[graceful shore]

i am doing stuff inside the code

[opal plank]

then, you got intents enabled?

[graceful shore]

also no, but i tried doing console.log(member); and that did nothing

[opal plank]

then you wont get member updates

you NEED intents to use members

[graceful shore]

right

do u think discord will let me have them just for a welcome function? @opal plank

[opal plank]

yeah, they usually allow for welcome messages

[graceful shore]

no i mean if i applied for it because my bot is verified

[opal plank]

your bot already verified?

[graceful shore]

yes

[opal plank]

then it takes a bit longer

requesting new intents usually require more time

[graceful shore]

yeah i tried applying for intents before for a /serverstats command and they declined my request so i doubt they will for this

[opal plank]

serverstats doesnt need it

they were right to deny

but welcome function needs it

[graceful shore]

right ok

guess ill apply

[zenith terrace]

pain of having to apply got intents

[graceful shore]

yup

Hi (: Regarding to Commando.js framework, Is it possible to make subfolders inside groups folders to store my commands? like
commands

• group1
  • subfolder1
    • command.ts
• subfolder2
  • command2.ts

Commando does not seem to recognize commands in subfolders

[arctic epoch]

guys

can anyone help me make a bot in repl

[umbral zealot]

You don't make a bot in repl, you make it in a language, using a library, and just put that code in repl.

what language/library do you want to use?

[arctic epoch]

oh

idk about them

im starter

idk about anything rn

[umbral zealot]

Then you need to start by choosing, and learning, a programming language.

[arctic epoch]

can ya guideme

[umbral zealot]

That's the first step

[arctic epoch]

oh can ya help

[umbral zealot]

Here: #development message

assuming you're ok with choosing javascript

[arctic epoch]

hmm

idk any langs

[umbral zealot]

JavaScript is a pretty good starting language, it's relatively easy to pick up

Python is also said to be easy to learn

[arctic epoch]

oh ok sure

so java

lesgoo

[umbral zealot]

No, not Java

JavaScript

[arctic epoch]

k

javascript

hmm

[umbral zealot]

But either will be weeks/months of learning, so, strap yourself in, it'll take a while.

[arctic epoch]

k

sure!!

i really wanna make a bot

hmm

now what next?!!

[umbral zealot]

The first step, what I linked, will take you weeks and months. that's your next step

[arctic epoch]

hmm

[umbral zealot]

As in: take the time to learn a programming language

[arctic epoch]

oh hmm

[umbral zealot]

There is no easy route here. Programming is hard, you have to dedicate yourself to learning something.

[arctic epoch]

hmm sure

btw

do u know python

[umbral zealot]

I don't

[arctic epoch]

hmm

then what do u know?

[umbral zealot]

Have you clicked the link I sent?

[arctic epoch]

hmm yup

[umbral zealot]

here it is again: #development message

[arctic epoch]

hmm

wait

@umbral zealot

[umbral zealot]

hmm

[arctic epoch]

bruw

[umbral zealot]

what

[arctic epoch]

like python i used it in repl

so

what place should i use the java scrpt

[umbral zealot]

You can use javascript on repl.it also

[arctic epoch]

oh

hmm

[umbral zealot]

It's the "nodejs" repl

[arctic epoch]

oh

hmm

[umbral zealot]

hmm

[arctic epoch]

now how to start of

@umbral zealot

[umbral zealot]

Do I have to link the same thing again

#development message

[arctic epoch]

hmm

[umbral zealot]

hmm

[arctic epoch]

bro @umbral zealot

thats a lot to read

btw

[solemn latch]

learning to program is a lot to read

can take hundreds of hours of practice

[arctic epoch]

can i get some info about making bot with repl

using javascript

[solemn latch]

code the bot in repls editor, they have docs.

[mental willow]

hey guys just wondering what i am doing wrong, my discord bot isnt adding / commands to discord

i dont know why and there is no errors being thrown
here is my sample code for this issue

from discord_slash import SlashCommand, SlashContext

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=str(config['SETTINGS']['CommandPrefix']), intents=discord.Intents.all())

slash = SlashCommand(bot, sync_commands=True)


@slash.slash(name="testping")
async def _ping(context):
    d = datetime.utcnow() - context.message.created_at
    s = str(d.seconds//1000 + d.microseconds//1000)
    embed = discord.Embed(title='Ping', color=0xffffff)
    embed.add_field(name=':ping_pong:', value=f'{s}ms')
    await context.channel.send(embed=embed)

as you can probably tell i have not included all the commands, but this is the only code related to my slash commands

Please Ping me if you can help, as i have not been able to find anything on stack overflow and the Docs are very difficult to understand

what is the name of the bot file @earnest phoenix

[umbral zealot]

That usually happens if the file is empty or you didn't actually save it.

like this

no that's a folder not a file

the file would be index.js or bot.js or main.js or whatever

make sure to save, it CTRL+S

[mental willow]

well try @umbral zealots thing and try

node index.js

[umbral zealot]

Happens to the best of us don't worry 😄

[mental willow]

yeah lol, i did that with 1000 lines of code before and the power went out

[umbral zealot]

[mental willow]

6 hours of coding

gone...........

[umbral zealot]

Well, at least you learned a super important lesson!

[mental willow]

yea h

i got 500 back tho, due to autosave tho

[lusty atlas]

I have a bit of probz

I'm beginner

But can someone come to the voice channel?

[earnest phoenix]

What lang? @lusty atlas

[lusty atlas]

I'm using JavaScript

[earnest phoenix]

so you're using discord.js correct

[lusty atlas]

Yea

[earnest phoenix]

i can probably help you out then

do you have basic javascript knowledge?

[lusty atlas]

Kinda

Soo ur helpin'

Or?

[summer torrent]

https://discordjs.guide

[lusty atlas]

Oh

Right

[earnest phoenix]

hey does anyone have any knowledge on why my bot just randomly went offline with no errors, because my bot just got declined due to it being offline

[umbral zealot]

could be a number of reasons but just "went offline" is a bit too vague to be helpful, I think

[ripe shadow]

It only works if in your package.json have a main like this.

{
  "name": "(the name)",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "Index.js or file name",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "discord.js": "^12.5.1"
  }
}

[umbral zealot]

We've already fixed that issue...

[ripe shadow]

Oh sorry

[umbral zealot]

smh

[ripe shadow]

[umbral zealot]

Always remember to scroll to the bottom of the channel before you start answering questions, folks! Only you can prevent forest fires answering hour-old messages

Hi (: Regarding to discordjs commando framework, Is it possible to make subfolders inside groups folders to store my commands? like
commands

• group1
  • subfolder1
    • command.ts
• subfolder2
  • command2.ts

Commando does not seem to recognize commands in subfolders

[lusty atlas]

I have rlly annoying prob

Can anyone help??

[umbral zealot]

Show us index.js line 6

[nimble python]

Help

I'm using the top.gg API but when someone votes for my bot, the user ID appears but I want the name to appear

how can I do that?

[umbral zealot]

What's your code right now?

[nimble python]

let user_vote = req.vote.user;
.setDescription(`El usuario con el ID: `+user_vote+` ha votado por mi!`)

@umbral zealot

[umbral zealot]

Right so presumably discord.js

You can pull the user from client.users.cache.get(user_vote) to get their user object

From there you can get their tag, a mention, etc

[nimble python]

And how do I do that?

[umbral zealot]

Use its properties as described in the discord.js docs

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/User

[nimble python]

but I'm using the top.gg so it must be a different way, right?

[umbral zealot]

This has nothing to do with top.gg

You need to fetch the user info from discord.js

Because top.gg only provides the id, but that can be used to fetch the user.

[crystal wigeon]

anyone use lavalink?

[opal plank]

i use it with detritus, why?

[crystal wigeon]

when you dc a bot manually

it doesn't changestate

so the bot never joins back

for some reason

[earnest phoenix]

It is a goodnight here

[crystal wigeon]

i dont see any logs

[opal plank]

which lib u using?

[crystal wigeon]

i just see the trakc name being searched

erelajs

[opal plank]

are you logging voice states?

[earnest phoenix]

ok support and general is dead and i need help with an issue is this a good place to get said help ?

[opal plank]

from erelajs?

[crystal wigeon]

yeah it logs on the lavalink overlay

[opal plank]

nono, the raw state

from discord

[crystal wigeon]

lemme try

there a lot of state updates,

anyways

the one im looking for is voice state change right?

there's no state log when i dc it manually

[opal plank]

voiceStateUpdate

this is the event you looking for

[crystal wigeon]

yeah

it did log

both for join and dc

but they're both same mmmm. there's no indication of what action is being carried out?

[opal plank]

wait

when the bot leaves?

or the person who requested?

[crystal wigeon]

when i manually "disconnect" the bot

[opal plank]

then it should pass under voiceServerUpdate iirc

[crystal wigeon]

but its not being reflected on lavalink?

it used to before

[opal plank]

idk what you feeding it, never used erelajs

[crystal wigeon]

see the voiceUpdates?

after i dc the bot, all it logs is the search

it even says the player was destroyed. but it never joins the vc again

[opal plank]

hmmm im not sure tbh

[crystal wigeon]

mindfk, it used to work before

there's no server state update. for both join and dc manually it sends the same voice state update

[long crow]

@opal plank Short browsing, might understand the flow how to read the documentation

[opal plank]

like i said, realistically you wouldnt even use the docs

[long crow]

Maybe try out my discord bot version in djs into detritus during this weekend

[opal plank]

it would be much better to use typescript and get intellisense directly onto vsc

[long crow]

not familiar yet with TS, so I stick for JS

[opal plank]

well, your loss, ts by itself is worth it

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/272764566411149314/826236720261365780/fG9xZSiYy0.gif

you saw the perks of it

not only it completes for you

it also tells you whats wrong or not

[long crow]

I mean, I can't run without learning to walk first

[opal plank]

in js you would have to try it and catch the error that way

here you get it before running it

ts IS js

theres no learning curve

you can setup ts to be lax at the beggining

[crystal wigeon]

is there an event i can listen to on the client itself? for manual voice dc

[opal plank]

dont think so

well

if you're leaving manually

why not do it in the command?

ignore the event

[crystal wigeon]

if the bot gets disconnected manually

[opal plank]

manually as in kicked?

or manuallyl as in command?

[crystal wigeon]

yeah like from the vc

not command

the command one works fine

when the bot is playing music in a vc, and someone manually disconnects it by right clicking on the bot and "disconnect"

thats when it doesnt rejoin

if there's an event it emits, when this triggers

i could probably do something

[opal plank]

it should be the same

vsu

[crystal wigeon]

i dont get an event when i do the command

the command is pretty much straight forward. typing "bot dc" would be the trigger for me to destroy the player

etc

[opal plank]

are you listening to both events?

[crystal wigeon]

nop

[opal plank]

voiceStateUpdate
voiceServerUpdate

you need BOTH

[crystal wigeon]

the voice update events are automatic

voiceserverupdate isnt there

when i disconnected it manually

[opal plank]

then add it

[crystal wigeon]

on the "raw"?

[opal plank]

wdym on the raw?

[crystal wigeon]

the "raw" event doesnt have that voiceServerUpdate

    if (d.t == "VOICE_STATE_UPDATE") {
      console.log(d)
    }
    client.music.updateVoiceState(d)
  });```

this one

i checked the d

it has message typing etc

when i dc manually it throws voice state update

[mortal plank]

Hi

[crystal wigeon]

never the voiceserverupdate

i found my problem, its actually in the queue

when i dc, the queue doesnt get cleared

i need a trigger for it

the "dc" command would be 1 trigger

but when someone does it manualyl there's no trigger

[opal plank]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#commands-and-events-gateway-events

its right here

if your lib doesnt have voiceServerUpdate

its shit

[crystal wigeon]

well like i said, when it gets disconnected manually, it throws a voice state update, and the lib automatically destroys the player

the problem is with my queue that still exists

and isnt cleared

when its manually disconnected

[opal plank]

then i've no clue

[crystal wigeon]

both voice state changes have the exact same object

[opal plank]

sounds like a lavalink issue

[crystal wigeon]

there's no indication if the bot was disconnected

nop, i see the "destroy player" operation

when it dc manually

nvm i figured it out lol

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[opal plank]

[icy skiff]

Are reactions rate limited or smth rn

my bot has the thingy that you pass pages with reactions

but after adding/removing the same reaction three times discord keep taking the reaction off or smth idk

i thought i messed something up but same thing is happening with other bots i tested

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[icy skiff]

yes yes i know that but

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[icy skiff]

whats happening rn is kinda weird and i dont think should be happening?

like

Mudae for example, which is a pretty famous bot

I used a paging command

added reaction like just three times

and it stopped working

i thought it was an issue with my bot but after i saw it happening to mudae as well i think theres something wrong with the api idk

[thin echo]

I’m trying to separate a command so that only I, the creator, can use it. No one else. Is this a thing I can do? Discord.oh

.py

[icy skiff]

Yes

[thin echo]

Mary you help me please?

May*

Auto correct sucks

[icy skiff]

I do

Lmao

[thin echo]

lol

[icy skiff]

Use the check decorator

@commands.check(your_function_here)

[thin echo]

?

[icy skiff]

Your function should return True or False

[thin echo]

I will just search the web, but I will keep this in mind

[slender thistle]

Are you using the commands extension or on_message for commands?

[icy skiff]

Just create a function that returns true if the id is your id

And pass it at the check decorator

[thin echo]

Ok?

[slender thistle]

With commands.ext you can just @commands.is_owner()

With on_message you can if message.author.id != your_id: return

[icy skiff]

I mean ye but sometimes you want to allow not only youself but maybe a few selected people

Like Mods or smth

[slender thistle]

Then that's on server permissions, which is @commands.has_permissions

[icy skiff]

That's not what i meant

xd

[slender thistle]

A group of people... I don't remember if passing owner_ids to commands.Bot reflects on is_owner

They did specify "and no one else" so

[icy skiff]

I just do

return ctx.message.author.id in (id1, id2, etc)

And pass It in a check decorator

[slender thistle]

Eh works too

[icy skiff]

Btw

Could you be as kind to explain to me why that's happening

That problem is Messing with my bot as well

[opal plank]

[icy skiff]

Shhhhh

[slender thistle]

You're spamming reactions

[icy skiff]

Não conta pra ninguém

[slender thistle]

Discord has a ratelimit on those

Just try not to click as often

[opal plank]

@icy skiff press ctrl + shift + i

[icy skiff]

Same thing

[opal plank]

@icy skiff do it

[icy skiff]

I did it

[cinder patio]

Maybe discord increased the rate-limits

[opal plank]

make sure you're on this tab

Console

[icy skiff]

I am

[opal plank]

okay

now spam the reaction

[icy skiff]

Yeee

Red text

Red texts are never good

[opal plank]

show it

[icy skiff]

its not happening just with me btw

[opal plank]

click on it

not on the link

just expand the text

[cinder patio]

Bad requests and too many requests

[opal plank]

i assume its ratelimits

[cinder patio]

yeah

[opal plank]

but i want him to collapse it so i can be sure

[opal plank]

oh

right

mime

actually

[icy skiff]

what

[opal plank]

400

[icy skiff]

its just happening with bots

i can spam people's messages with reactions

but any bot

it gets rate limited after 2 or 3 reactions

permanently

[opal plank]

do you have any client mods?

[icy skiff]

sorry for my stupidity but i dont know what that is

[opal plank]

perfect, then i assume you dont

[icy skiff]

kek

[opal plank]

your acc might have been flagged for reaction spam possibly

[icy skiff]

i mean, if u have any bots to test it i think u could try it yourself, pretty sure same thing will happen

its not just me

i asked some random friends and same thing

and as i said only happens with bots' messages

i can spam YOUR messages for example

but not bots'

[opal plank]

i'd rather not get my acc ratelimited and possibly flagged, thank you

[icy skiff]

kek

no but like

any bot that has any command that works with reactions

just add/remove the reaction twice or thrice and BOOM

stops working

[opal plank]

well, i dont see the issue, thats probably an intended discord feature, they are likely trying to prevent peple from abusing bots

its ratelimits

period

[icy skiff]

that legit sucks

[opal plank]

how so?

spam = bad

[icy skiff]

no yes but like

my bot has a album thingy right

[opal plank]

blame whoever coded the bot if they have 30+ pages you gotta flip through

[icy skiff]

u do a command and it gives u 10 stickers

u pass the stickers with reactions

[opal plank]

add a search function then

[icy skiff]

u cant see past sticker 3

[opal plank]

or a page selector

[icy skiff]

ye but it was working 15 minutes ago

[opal plank]

clearly isnt anymore, so fix it

add a page selector

dont rely on people spam

nobody is going thru 30 pages, sorry to give it to you

10 is already much

[icy skiff]

ok

lemme give ya a example real quicc

Mudae right, everyone knows mudae

it has that command that u search a character

[opal plank]

i dont

[craggy pine]

Just poking my head in and curious on what you're saying Erwin.

[icy skiff]

uh

its an anime bot

u can search characters

[opal plank]

well, idk about bots in general

[icy skiff]

and characters have pictures

u can scroll through pictures

[craggy pine]

Pagination when there's 30 pages but you go through them pressing
<-- -->
emojis is fine since it's only two

[opal plank]

[opal plank]

which is legit what he's doing

[craggy pine]

I mean, we do it

[icy skiff]

bro

[opal plank]

,

[craggy pine]

Never been ratelimited.

[opal plank]

cuz we dont spam it

its client spam miyuka

[craggy pine]

Ah.

Gotcha.

[icy skiff]

lve seen dozens of bots working like that so its kinda weird it being broken all of a sudden

[opal plank]

his client is being ratelimited cuz he's spam clicking like a madman

[icy skiff]

pretty famous ones

mudae is always on top page on top,gg

lol

[craggy pine]

Oh.

[icy skiff]

bro

its not that

[opal plank]

thats a pretty bad way to run things dude

[icy skiff]

its getting rate limited after two clicks

[craggy pine]

Could throw in a custom rate limiter with the system itself. Like only can react ever few seconds.

[opal plank]

just cuz they do it, i'll do it too

[icy skiff]

that definitely shouldnt be intended

[craggy pine]

Idk we make sure people can't abuse.

[opal plank]

well, you DID spend the last 30 minutes spam clicking, i wouldnt be surprised they lowered your ratelimit count to 3 cuz you've been flagged

[craggy pine]

It do be like that.

[icy skiff]

i totally agree with you BUT

as i said

[thin echo]

Arigato Gozaimasu

[icy skiff]

same thing is happening with friends

[thin echo]

I find it more formal to say in japanese

[icy skiff]

that dont even use the bots

[opal plank]

like i said, probably discord ratelimiting people

which is good

[icy skiff]

it IS good

[opal plank]

preventing reaction spam for us bot devs

[craggy pine]

Indeed.

[icy skiff]

but not LIKE THAT

[opal plank]

it IS good

[icy skiff]

not after TWO GODDAMN CLICKS

[opal plank]

if you bot requires 5 reactions to do something its shit

sorry

[icy skiff]

bro come on

its not REQUIRED

its just for fun

[opal plank]

join my support server

and check bot-spam

[icy skiff]

people scroll thorugh pictures, stickers, whatever

dm me ur support server plz

[opal plank]

just click me

[icy skiff]

oh

[craggy pine]

U know what. I'll join you aswell bec Erwin is poggers

[frigid mountain]

Poggers

[opal plank]

@slender thistle, @icy skiff got a question for ya

[slender thistle]

A

[icy skiff]

yes

ok

so

weird things are happening and my head feels like exploding

so

my bot has a pagination command right

people use reactions to pass pages

if i use such command on server x

the reaction gets rate limited after 2 reactions or smth

if i use same command on server y

works like a charm

ill record a quick video just a sec

[thin echo]

is there anyone I can DM and ask if the gif I have is epileptic?

[pale vessel]

dm a moderator

[thin echo]

ok

who to choose

[pale vessel]

any red name

dylan is poggers

[thin echo]

choosing safe

[pale vessel]

oh

that's good

[thin echo]

ok

[earnest phoenix]

const client = new Discord.Client({ allowedMentions: { parse: [] } });```

Correct?

For not mentioning everyone, here & roles

[pale vessel]

yes

also, TIAS

no point asking here

[earnest phoenix]

Hmm Ok

[icy skiff]

any experts?

[slender thistle]

My guess is your ratelimit was increased for spamming reactions

Guess you'll have to wait

[icy skiff]

but why does it work on some servers and others dont?

i showed in the video, it works at one server but not on the other

[slender thistle]

I'm not sure if reaction ratelimits are tied to guilds or channels

[icy skiff]

but it also doesnt work for some friends of mine?

i dont get it

ill wait for tomorrow and see if its back to normal

[slender thistle]

Well I have absolutely not a fucking clue

[icy skiff]

2

it doesnt make sense tbh
