the error message here is really wonky because I did some hacks to make this work but in general it's almost always better than js

I really had to get used to defining types for everything when I used Typescript for the first time. But when the project got bigger I absolutely understood why it's better.

I've always had some trouble working with TypeScript, whether it be compilation errors or some sort of weird bug

there are likely some differences between tsnode.register() and the tsnode cli

Map<string, 0> 
opal plank
itsw kinda odd, but its a quirk i managed to get around
woeful pike
isn't that just Set<string>
opal plank
i guess so, but i think maps are better indexed
and 0 is the smallest byte-wise thing i can set there
rather than using includes() or some other sort of array method
woeful pike
I haven't heard of performance comparisons between map and set like that
in theory the smallest value you can have is nothing the way sets do
opal plank
i'd be interested to see which is more performant tbh, a set or map for indexing
quartz kindle
set.has should have comparable performance to map.has, no?
quartz kindle
im not on pc now otherwise id already be benchmarking it
opal plank
woeful pike
I can't imagine there's any meaningful difference between indexing a set and a map. Aren't they implemented similarly under the hood
opal plank
i would benchmark it but im the middle of work rn
probably so, but these workers are meant to grab a lot of traffic
since they are dealing with presences, i'd like to make it as performant as possible
quartz kindle
use objects then lul
opal plank
im getting 1-2 presences per second now as oppose to the 150k i was getting before on a single thread
quartz kindle
objects are more performant when keys are strings
maps are better for non-string keys
opal plank
delete obj[id]
obj[id] = 0
?
quartz kindle
yes
opal plank
aight, lets roll with that then
quartz kindle
but hasOwnProperty has the same perf
woeful pike
at what point do you go ok maybe javascript is not the right tool for the job here lol
opal plank
realistically i wouldnt be worrying about that too much, its just due to the fact that i ACTUALLY managed to clog a very high end server with presences alone
so worrying a bit too much here wouldnt be that bad
spikes were going up to 160%
now its stable at 5%
quartz kindle
because you were single threading right
woeful pike
Map<string, {}> 
100% cpu usage vps dying
Map<string, 0> 
0 resource usage we chillin solo bolo
opal plank
at least in dev
opal plank
because you were single threading right
correct
now with the workers the main thread is at 5%
though now im not doing any parsing in the main thread
im just emitting the userid, the guildid and if a new presence was triggered or no
since i need to know when they start/stop playing
prime mist
I would use a Set personally. Until performance was really a concern.

theres a difference in passing json to your website(which uses js) and likely your api/db returns a json payload. That doesnt mean you're storing the data in json

the point of second level cache is so data you pull frequently is stored in memory, any update done on a second level cache entry first updates it in memory and then the database as a side effect

corect, but the website would likely be using js to fetch() whatever they got in the db, which would in turn be json. the data itself would be stored in the db however, which wont (necessarily) be any sort of json relative
umbral zealot
I mean it really depends
tbh someone starting in web dev would be best served by using EJS or PUG

the way they are saying suggests they are confusing the json format to what they get in the front-end, not how its saved on the backend

this
umbral zealot
let's be clear. do not store thigns in .json files
analog tinsel
and json is minimalized to store
opal plank
they are probably confusing front-end with backend if they state they use quickdb
umbral zealot
You can definitely store objects and shit in quick.db and enmap
the problem isn't the json format.
the problem is storing in json files.
You'll still need to exchange json strings between your backend and frontend, that's fine, and required
analog tinsel
im saying against
umbral zealot
What you cannot and should not do, ever, unless you're literally mentally incompetent, is think that you can and should store data in .json files and modify them programmatically.
Don't do this
analog tinsel
if im going to make holy owo bot or anything i need to develop / waste time
i can use quick db
but im now just making for 20 moderation user
analog tinsel
and they dont know how to edit quickdb
umbral zealot
it will be quicker
umbral zealot
That is a stupid argument
opal plank
we've sucessfully waste 17 minutes trying to explain that quickdb is not equal to .json
umbral zealot
because you don't edit data manually in a file when you have a website
if you want them to be able to edit data, you make a form with a Save button
umbral zealot
Don't care
opal plank
here, you are SO angry about how easily you can modify data?
analog tinsel
if you download db browser sqlite
umbral zealot
I started with Discord Bots
analog tinsel
yes
umbral zealot
and now I'm paid $80k/year to make websites
umbral zealot
And guess what I never ever did in my bot developer or web dev career? store data in json.
That's why I'm actually paid $$$
opal plank
you are not making sense
umbral zealot
You already know quick.db , you have zero excuse
analog tinsel
im just making bot for private server
umbral zealot
I don't care what you're doing.
boreal iron
this is how hard it is to modify data in a database
Looks too complicated to tbh, no Alexa support obviously
opal plank
we are understanding, you just not making any sense
umbral zealot
use quick.db
analog tinsel
so i want to give their basic bot system
umbral zealot
I do'nt even like quick.db and I want you to use it
opal plank
it doesnt matter if you are using a bot, facebook, a new discord platform or a new mail, just DONT USE .json
its bad
period
umbral zealot
If you're making something for a private server, give them commands in the bot to edit things if they need it
analog tinsel
ughhhhhhh
umbral zealot
and it's going to be much easier to change things in quick.db
umbral zealot
We understand you perfectly
analog tinsel
i hope you sponsored with quick db

dude, i HATE quickdb
boreal iron
I would suggest SQLite but who cares
opal plank
im a postgres/redis and keydb fan
analog tinsel
my data = number

we are saying you should use it cuz you ALREADY HAVE IT

umbral zealot
Doesn't matter
analog tinsel

you can store ANYTHING

opal plank
whats ur argument now?

quick.db and enmap both use sqlite
Well never used quickdb but I guess I learned something
analog tinsel
do you see????????????
im using quick db tooooooooooooooooooooo
but i dont want now quick db on current project
opal plank
make colums for EACH thing inside your json
umbral zealot
you do'nt need to edit things manually when you're making a website or bot
you use commands and UI features
opal plank
^^
analog tinsel
im saying firstly itttttttt toooooo
i dont need ui features
its just basic project
boreal iron
Lmao using a database to store a JSON string
analog tinsel
its like google or opera
opal plank
they dont understand they dont have to have only TWO colums
analog tinsel
im choosing holy opera
umbral zealot
So here's the thing, right? That "one thing" you need help with, is literally the simplest thing you can do, which is read data.
After you figure that out, you need to figure out a way to write this data
After that's figured out, you realise the data doesn't update so you need to figure out how to "reload" the data
And after that, you need to figure out how to load, edit, and save the data to change it.
None of these things are easy in json
All of these things are super trivial in quick.db
umbral zealot
yes it is
analog tinsel
when im getting some code from another user
umbral zealot
Click the big fat "invite" button on the right.
analog tinsel
im just store it and

umbral zealot
ok but you're not even there yet
analog tinsel
json is not main problem here
umbral zealot
it is
analog tinsel
as you can see
umbral zealot
You haven't even started learning what you need to know to start doing the shitty thing
opal plank
@analog tinsel does this make sense to you?
instead of ```
|id | json |
|123| {"stats": 1, "otto": 1010} |
You do
| id | stats | otto |
|123 | 1 | 1010 |
how harder to talk
umbral zealot
Again, I'm speaking from experience here : you haven't scratched the surface that is the horrible pain of using json as a database
you don't know how hard this is because you literally are at step 1 of understanding
and there's at least 10 steps of pain

This is not about choice. This is about using the right tool for the right job.

I still think people should experience failure and see the light from it and learn to adopt great standards early on, but I feel the way some members offer solutions is done poorly. It often stems from aggressively pressuring users to accept "suggestions" or diminishing their current solution for the wrong reasons. I'd like to explain more but typing on a phone is hard while walking.

Hi, I wrote a backend with express and then I wrote auth with passport-discord. The auth works fine but I have no idea how to pass it to frontend, can you help?
@earnest phoenix
I especially expect from you :D
tacit sequoia
umbral zealot
I presume that means you're doing a reactjs front-end?
eternal elbow
Yes
umbral zealot
You didn't say but it feels implied
eternal elbow
I presume that means you're doing a reactjs front-end?
I'm trying
umbral zealot
mostly this is done from the express, and the sessions
earnest phoenix
pass it as a prop in getServerSideProps if you're using nextjs
umbral zealot
Here's the magic: React doesn't need to "deal" with the authentication
react gets a cookie when you create the session in express
and it uses that cookie on every request
the back-end reads that cookie
That's your authentication
eternal elbow
You didn't say but it feels implied
Oh,yes i think i forgot to tell😄
eternal elbow
That's your authentication
So it is enough for me to create a cookie?
umbral zealot
Basically yes. Express will generate it when you create the authenticated session as part of the passport-discord process
eternal elbow
But it is not necessary to change the code and change the query there, right?
umbral zealot
Not from the react side, no
Because you're querying the same back-end endpoints, and the back-end checks the auth
eternal elbow
So a final question is one of the ports 3000 and the other 3001 does that make any difference?
umbral zealot
no that's just... ports.
So, now, let's say you want to have a "secure route" in the front-end, right? You want to not show, say, an "admin" link to normal users. Or just a "my profile" link for authenticated users.
What you need to have is an endpoint to get the current logged in user's "state". I usually have /me that returns the current username, avatar, and status, whether they're admin, etc. This is sent from Express, and if the user is authenticated you get a response, otherwise you get a 403
So now you know, from React, on page load, whether the user is authenticated or not ^_^
eternal elbow
no that's just... ports.
Oh okay ,Got it? I will review it, I will authorize the user in express, then I will check with cookies in react (SPA by the way)
umbral zealot
You can't read cookies from react
you can't read cookies from javascript at all from within your page
that's the magic of it - you don't check auth directly from your app
eternal elbow
API ?
umbral zealot
you just query backend URLs which will return data if authenticated but return a 403 if you're not authenticated
So if you do GET /api/me and that returns, say, { username: 'SteoidVoid", isAdmin: true } then you know that you're authenticated, your username, and that you're admin
umbral zealot
the what now
umbral zealot
passport-discord deals with this already on its own
marble juniper
to prevent clickjacking and csrf
no but
the state parameter has to be appended by frontend
doesn't it
umbral zealot
We're talking about FE<->BE authentication here with express, not oauth2 login

this onClick event is applied to multiple buttons.
I want to append the same dot to these buttons, without instantiating a new dot
so the dot can be moved to each button one by one
So how do I achieve something like that

cinder patio
I'd have an array with all the buttons and their content, rendering each of them via map
umbral zealot
Again, use actual data that you modify, and then render from that data
instead of mixing up rendering in your setup function
This is a no-no in react.

button position = button index in an array
and set the key to the button's content if it's not unique, if it is then use the index

clear marlin
it should work
rocky hearth
can I add classes to element with ev.currentTarget.classList.add('dot') dynamically though?
umbral zealot
Exactly
rocky hearth
I was hoping to add/remove classes, and use dot::after in css
cinder patio
you can still use add / remove classes, but use state
ionic hawk
```py
embed.add_field(name="Progress Bar [lvl]", value=boxes * ":blue_square:" +...
unless my math is wrong? py boxes = int((xp/(200*((1/2) * lvl)))*20)
umbral zealot
You can have a dynamic/conditional class in your render function
ionic hawk
how does the mee6 xp bar work? is it a custom emoji too?

Mee6 probably does it completely custom for efficency.

Not at all, rPIs are very underpowered and cannot run a lot of code. You can get away with a few, but none very large, and certainly not music bots or bots manipulating images. It's limited, it's not free, it requires an always on power and internet connection, thus does not fit the definition of "free host"

Why does my bot randomly go offline?? I host it on repl.it and uptimerobot

and i deal with it

dats rare
For someone like me who uses internet connection via phone and runs the bot on heroku, it's the common issue

Arguing a solution works great then agreeing the solution doesn't always work is such a karen move.

Tried this?

... did you not *just* say repl.it works fine for you??? lol
it works fine and it`s easy for me to deal with that

So it worked?
earnest phoenix
Ehh

here are times when my bot self restarted

You do a lot of this "for me" crap. You have to take other people's needs into considerations, not just yourself.

So it worked?
yes but how can I get it to do something if it says something

Like if it says "support me" I want it to say in a channel they have "support me" in status else they don't have it.

When the bot says "support me"
U want the bot to send msg in some other channel as they have this status

sounds like a super basic command => response ? What are you struggling with exactly?

I have figured out the errors

Yep

Use
await channel.send(f"{status}")```want to make a command where I write "/ Fessel" then the bot should tell me "You are tying someone up

I don't remember if get_channel is Coro or not
sudden knoll
why is a custom status under CustomActivity, wack
deep mantle
I don't remember if get_channel is Coro or not
no its not
sudden knoll
to see a custom status, it's in CustomActivity
get_channel(ID) is correct
for python at least

Isn't it same as just creating one extra cmd?
umbral zealot
We're basically talking about having a ping/pong command with different text
worn sonnet
Oh oke
umbral zealot
shouldn't be that hard, but it requires you to... y'know, at least have a bot that exists.
earnest phoenix
yes I understood your request. I'm asking where you're stuck
I don't know how I can do the command like that, that's the problem. I don't know how to do the command with the "/fesseln"
sudden knoll
I think he's doing slash commands
umbral zealot
is it though
worn sonnet
Oh
umbral zealot
could be just a prefix
