@quartz kindle you were the one that mentioned a chrome extension that hides old tabs and puts them in a separate area to conserve cpu and memory?

[green kestrel]

hmm

seems tons of people think cancelling a subscription to a subscription service will cancel it at the end of the month, even when it says on the screen that it will be cancelled immediately.

is it really that normal that cancelling your subscription gives you a grace period? I mean iirc Apple TV and Amazon etc don't do this?

[vivid fulcrum]

is it really that normal that cancelling your subscription gives you a grace period
i mean, yeah

you pay for the whole month, you get the whole month

spotify and netflix do this

it might have something to do with the billing cycle

[green kestrel]

I purposefully set mine like this

as in without that grace period

and it clearly says so before they cancel

but it happens over and over that they just don't read

I mean it's a financial transaction do people really not read that

[vivid fulcrum]

end users are genuinely dumb

try bringing more attention to the text?

[green kestrel]

it's not in my control

[vivid fulcrum]

oh

[green kestrel]

that's on the payment gateway side

oddly enough very few ask for a refund or anything

[rocky hearth]

in react, Can/Should I give a key to both single same element which is rendered on a condition
Like,

isTrue ? <Button key={1} x={100} /> : <Button key={1} y={200} />

will this effect/improve anything?

[vivid fulcrum]

you can, but it doesn't matter iirc

however

if you have a use case like the code snippet you provided

instead of conditional rendering, do conditional props

[rocky hearth]

actually I hv more attributes to paas, which are completly different

[vivid fulcrum]

ah

[quartz kindle]

ye

tab wrangler

[crimson vapor]

ah ty

[rocky hearth]

Like this?

 <Button { ...(isTrue ? {x: 100} : {y: 200}) } />

[sudden geyser]

[PostgreSQL] I'm using deferrable foreign keys to try resolving a circular reference issue where I can't insert or remove data since two keys depend on each other.

I have a media, media_titles, and media_titles_translations table. Each of them have an id, created_at, and modified_at column. There are a few other columns—the most significant with media_id being a native_title_id referencing media_titles_translations, which later references media_titles, which later references media (see hence circular reference).

I'm unsure how to write a query to insert a new row into the media column and hold on to the id column returned and use it in another query (2 in this case since I need to use it for media_titles and media_titles_translations). How could I accomplish this?

[earnest phoenix]

@solemn latch

[solemn latch]

@earnest phoenix thats against discord tos.

[earnest phoenix]

Se me olvido mencionar los roles

Me pueden ayudar?

[floral rune]

Most Postgres clients will return the inserted row after an INSERT. If you’re using node it should be available in the callback res object... though I need more info on what platform you’re using

Your titles also suggest there are multiple titles/translations... maybe a key/value store like Redis might be a better fit for your data

[floral rune]

Puedes mencionar por mandar el ID del role con <@& y > alrededor

Por ejemplo para un role con ID 1234 se manda <@&1234>

[earnest phoenix]

Gracias

[stiff lynx]

I want to do a cooldown with the db, there is a type for date or I have to put it as a String?

[floral rune]

What database?

[digital ibex]

im a bit confused

i have this: document.getElementById('role id here')

but it returns null for some reason, any idea why?

[digital ibex]

it'd be so much better if you didnt use a db for command cooldowns (if thats what ur saying) but u'd wanna use interger

[floral rune]

a good practice is to store a date of the command's last usage then compare to now
that way if you change the cooldown or there is downtime everything still works as intended

[digital ibex]

u wot

wrong ping my man

[floral rune]

that is usually the pattern I use in a relational db to track cooldowns

[digital ibex]

i've never heard of someone using a db for cooldowns, bc who has a downtime of just 2 seconds

and its 2 seconds, thats about the same time anyways

[floral rune]

for just 2 seconds that wouldn't make a lot of sense but for longer intervals it does

[digital ibex]

i mean sure but dafuq r u doin if u have a half hour cooldown

lmfao

[floral rune]

if you have a high performance keyval store like Redis you can make keys that autoexpire then just check if they exist on invocation

[digital ibex]

yeah sure my guy

[floral rune]

SET <uid>:<cmd>:cooldown y
EXPIRE <uid>:<cmd>:cooldown 2

GET <uid>:<cmd>:cooldown --> y or null

[sudden geyser]

In my context, it needs to be executed as one transaction. Relying on the previous value via execution, get, and execution would be two separate transactions. I used deference to try solving a circular problem caused by foreign keys (hence transactions restriction)

[floral rune]

since you're using postgres you can chain inserts in a single transaction ```sql
WITH media_insert AS (
INSERT INTO media(...)
VALUES(...)
RETURNING id
),
media_titles_insert AS (
INSERT INTO media_titles(...)
VALUES((SELECT id FROM media_insert),...)
RETURNING id, media_id
)
INSERT INTO media_titles_translation(...)
VALUES((SELECT id FROM media_insert),(SELECT media_id FROM media_titles_insert),...)

[broken matrix]

quick question
You know how some websites have a login via discord
Is there a tutorial or a link to the documentation on that

[lyric mountain]

you mean oauth2

[broken matrix]

yes

[lyric mountain]

search for how to handle oauth2

not discord login

[broken matrix]

Ight thank you

[quaint wasp]

module.exports = {
  name: 'ban',
  execute: async (client, message, args) => {
        let toBan = message.mentions.members.first() || message.guild.members.cache.get(args[0]) || message.guild.members.cache.find(x => x.user.username.toLowerCase() === args.slice(0).join(" ") || x.user.username === args[0]);

  if (!message.member.hasPermission("BAN_MEMBERS")) return message.channel.send("You need permissions!") 
  if (!message.guild.me.hasPermission("BAN_MEMBERS")) return message.channel.send("Bot need permissions!") 

  const reason = args[1] || "There was no reason!";

  toBan.ban({
      reason: reason
  })
  message.channel.send(`${toBan} has been banned from the server!\nReason: ${reason}`)
}
};```
This command is like... realy simple.. and Idk how I get an error: Cannot read property 'ban' of undefined...
I defined toBan tho..

[floral rune]

if all of your chained expressions return undefined then toBan will be set to undefined. You need to add an error handler for that

you also forgot to lowercase the username provided in the args in the find lambda

[quaint wasp]

o

ok..

[weary crypt]

you alright man?

I am here to help lol, if you need anything just @ me

[thin echo]

How do I implement this into my bots code?

int serverCount = ...; // the total amount of servers across all shards

api.setStats(serverCount);

[lament rock]

You can have a socket server that issues a get all stats command from all shards and then combine all values in the server and send back to the command issuer

[lyric mountain]

Don't use var, also, ain't that already black?

[errant perch]

is there a way i can unfollow an announcement channel with discord.js?

[median path]

hiii

[errant perch]

nvm figured it out

[prime glacier]

client.on('message', message => {
    if(message.content.startsWith(prefix + "dm")){

        var args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split(/ +/g)
        var args = args.slice(1).join(" ")

        client.guilds.cache.get("716718729186246757").members.cache.each(m =>{
            m.send(args)
            console.log('message sent to' + m.user.tag) 
        }
        )

and bot crashes

[quaint wasp]

why tf is that there?

[tacit sequoia]

Use catch

[quaint wasp]

damn it that pic was tehre

isnt var to make vertible?

also I got a bug..

Idk why it happens

my button stuff for that is this:

    <nav>
<a href="./aboutus.html">About Us</a>
<a href="./discord.html">Home</a>
<a href="./serverStats.html">Support Server</a>]
<a href="./botstats.html">Bot Sats</a>

</nav>```

wait

nvm

I jsut saw that ]

I am really dumb after drinking lots of cold juice dude lol

also

wahts up with #topgg-open-source

[prime glacier]

how can we bypass it like it just says in logs that cant dm and continue to dm rest of the persona
bot dont crash

dont know how to use it in this situation please explain

[lyric inlet]

pls help me i also want to make cool bots so many ppl suggest me to learn programming language 1st so pls tell me which programming language i need to learn 1st
i want to learn javascript but some ppl are saying u need to learn html and css before javascript pls tell me something what should i do

[brisk island]

Hi

[weary crypt]

You do not need to learn HTML/CSS before learning Javascript. The language you choose is entirely up to you. It depends on what you can read the best and what you feel the most comfortable with.

[drifting shell]

oh no

what did I do

[weary crypt]

Breaking Tos Speed run

[drifting shell]

wanted to find out how many total members i had....uhh....guess that wasn't the way to do it

[drifting shell]

not sure wym breaking tos

there's nothing in that which breaks tos

[weary crypt]

nevermind I am stupid

i retract my statement

[drifting shell]

what did you think I did

[weary crypt]

please re read message 1

[drifting shell]

what

[weary crypt]

I personally thought, spamming their API was against TOS

[drifting shell]

it is if you spam it and dont respect rate limits

as in you hit the rate limit, and keep submitting requests despite being rate limited

[vale garden]

hi

i have this weird problem

my bot randomly goes offline and online on its own

i used a flask backend server to host it 24/7 on uptimerobot

and all other bots on there are doing fine

however this bot goes offline and comes back online on its own, and idk why

it also sends the bot on_ready message multiple times

does anyone know why

p.s the bot is on a super active server of 20k members i think

idk if that might be a reason

[clear marlin]

This isn't your bots problem. Its basically your host.

I suggest going for a cheap hosting supply

btw, uptime robot pings your website 5 minutes apart

[earnest phoenix]

Please dont say you use glitch

[clear marlin]

so basically it would go online and offline in sudden instances

[rapid forge]

Your bot restarts every 5 min

you might need to tweak that in uptime robot or something

[worn sonnet]

how can i C# bot on AWS?

[pale vessel]

of course

[slender thistle]

Add a print statement or any kind of logging in the beginning of your bot file and the on_ready

See if it's your bot disconnecting or your host annoying you

[rocky hearth]

for react, if we pass a new object as a prop, with the same values. Does it trigger for a rerender? (for being a new reference?)

[cinder patio]

I belive it does

It causes a rerender but if the object is used in the state then the state won't update (assuming you're using funcional components)

[rocky hearth]

ok

[rocky hearth]

this too plz

[cinder patio]

I don't think that'll matter, keys should be used only when you're creating elements in a loop

[rocky hearth]

so there would be 2 different buttons created depending on isTrue?

[vagrant sorrel]

hey guys a small help?
this is my command taking code:

bot.on('message', async (msg) => {
  if (msg.content[0]+ msg.content[1] !== prefix) {
    console.log('no prefix')
    return
  }
  const args = msg.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split(' ')
  console.log(args)
  const command = args.shift().toLowerCase()
  console.log(command)```

but in this case i have to give commands like this ``.shelp``
i wanna give command like this ``.s help``

what is the change i should make in my code?

[earnest phoenix]

To check if the content starts with the prefix, use <String>.startsWith() instead of that condition in your first if statement and use .split(/ +/) for that instead of .split(' '), that should work

[vagrant sorrel]

how do I transform the if statement?

[earnest phoenix]

!message.content.startsWith(prefix)

[vagrant sorrel]

works perfectly. thank you so muchhhhh

[rapid wharf]

Why NOT to choose Heroku as a hosting for bot???

[earnest phoenix]

your bot got ratelimited when another non ratelimit respecter comes

[round vault]

yep

I did that but didn't work

[earnest phoenix]

Moin, ist hier auch deutsch?

[frigid mountain]

☹☹☹idk what to say because I typed that in my terminal and it worked mmmmm....

[lusty quest]

ja aber das gehört in #general-int

Will try to use that. Thanks

[crystal wigeon]

hey is there a way to DM the user with oauth?

[willow mirage]

does io.sockets.emit() will emit event to all client?

or only to the render client?

I have problem cause I want to pass io.on('connection', socket => socket variable to the routers

module.exports = (app, io) => {
    io.on('connection', (socket) => {
        require('./socket_events')(socket).then(() => {
            console.log('New user has been connected to the server');
            socket.emit('client_request_location');
            socket_io = socket;
        })
    })
    
    app.use('/', require('../routes/-.js')(io));
    app.use('/api', require('../routes/-api.js')(io));
}

I can only pass the io but not the socket

:<

[quartz kindle]

nice ghost ping

[willow mirage]

sr, I pinged u

but I think im gonna bother u so i deleted

but can u help me

:<

[quartz kindle]

because its async

either put app.use inside the socket callback, or put everything inside a promise

[willow mirage]

I tried to put app.use in socket callback, but it return 404 not found /

because / must be render and then dom socket can connect to server

that mean / must be render, then socket DOM can be connect

im stuck at that

[quartz kindle]

because its async

whatever you are doing in your other files, needs to wait until the socket connection happens

[willow mirage]

so await io.on() ?

ahhh

bruh

module.exports = async(app, io) => {
    const socket = await io.on('connection')
    require('./socket_events')(socket).then(() => {
        console.log('New user has been connected to the server');
    })
    app.use('/', require('../routes/-.js')(socket));
    app.use('/api', require('../routes/-api.js')(socket));
}

like this @quartz kindle ?

[quartz kindle]

events do not return promises, you cannot await them like that

[willow mirage]

hmm, so how i can do it?

[quartz kindle]

what are you doing outside of that code?

[willow mirage]

wdym?

[quartz kindle]

this file is exported

what is the code that requires it?

[willow mirage]

I call it in /bin/www file

await require*

[quartz kindle]

what exactly do you want to do with the socket and the server?

[willow mirage]

passing variables

[quartz kindle]

you cant

[willow mirage]

hmm, then how I can pass variables between client and server?

[quartz kindle]

not like that

you have an http server, this http server generates html pages that you can access by visiting your website, right?

[willow mirage]

yes

well actually it is a express server

but for socket.io I use http

[quartz kindle]

then you connect to the socket, you can send variables between client and server, and you want these variables to change the html page?

[willow mirage]

yes

[quartz kindle]

you want that the next time you reload the page, the page is different?

[willow mirage]

yes

[quartz kindle]

then you need to use some sort of global variables

the render needs to get the variable from somewhere, then the socket can update this variable

the socket cannot pass the variable directly to the render, otherwise the render will not exist until you connect the socket

the render must be created before the socket

[willow mirage]

yes that what I thought about too

[quartz kindle]

and btw why do you need a socket for this?

[willow mirage]

because I dunno any other way to pass variable between client and server

[quartz kindle]

ajax? rest?

[willow mirage]

and Im trying to do like a real time update

[quartz kindle]

but you want the page to be reloaded

socket will lose the connection on reload

socket is meant for real time communication without reloading the page

like chat apps

[willow mirage]

well without reload would be better

yes

[quartz kindle]

in this case it has nothing to do with the render

the render has to create a blank/default page

and the socket messages have to add stuff to the page on the client, with browser js

not on the server

[willow mirage]

hmmmm, maybe I should remove the socket and make a api

[quartz kindle]

also an option

[willow mirage]

hmm

[crystal wigeon]

umm

[sharp jolt]

Anyone knows Golang here who would help me in unslowmode command.... unslowmode dosent work if i put value as 0 and works with 5

func (cmd *Commands) UnSlowMode(s *discordgo.Session, m *discordgo.Message, ctx *Context) {

[novel snow]

const { Client, Collection } = require('discord.js');
const { config } = require('dotenv');
const fs = require('fs');
const command = require('./handlers/command');
const discord = require('discord.js');
const Discord = require('discord.js');

const client = new Discord.Client();

const cacheMessageOne = client.guilds.cache
  .get('843061318700367872')
  .channels.cache.get('845367058463588452')
  .message.get('845367708484108288').content;
console.log(cacheMessageOne);

So yeah, The code is supposed to just list the content of the message specified, But it doesn't work, Instead I get this;

C:\Users\user\Documents\tests\index.js:17
  .channels.cache.get('845367058463588452')
  ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'channels' of undefined
    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\user\Documents\tests\index.js:17:3)

[vale garden]

yea theres a print("Ready") statement and ive see like 10 of them on the console

[opal plank]

why the heck you require discordjs twice?

[quartz kindle]

lol

it doesnt work because you didnt login

[novel snow]

It does log in

Just

okay here;

const { Client, Collection } = require('discord.js');
const { config } = require('dotenv');
const fs = require('fs');
const command = require('./handlers/command');
const discord = require('discord.js');
const Discord = require('discord.js');

const client = new Discord.Client();

const cacheMessageOne = client.guilds.cache
  .get('843061318700367872')
  .channels.cache.get('845367058463588452')
  .message.get('845367708484108288').content;
console.log(cacheMessageOne);

client.login('wack');

I have no clue why it doesn't work

[near stratus]

you know using require("discord.js") 3 times dosen't make the code better

[woeful pike]

you're trying to get messages before your bot is even connected to discord

[near stratus]

^

Do it on ready

[novel snow]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH

I am so fucking stupid

[novel snow]

Thank you

[novel snow]

And the reason I got that is because the current code is a abomination of different code snippets but I never bothered to change the name

[quartz kindle]

thats why you dont copy-paste code

lel

[novel snow]

Yeh

I mean I wrote it myself just never changed the shit

[rapid wharf]

All the other Imports are woking but these two are not, any fixes (Both are in official PyPI website, with a ss of code, i did the same, but these are not importing into my files) pyrandmeme and Fivem Packages.

[near stratus]

are they installed ?

[rapid wharf]

yes

[opal plank]

@quartz kindle yo wtf

how does this break my welcomer messages?

isnt it GUILD_MEMBERS that output updates for guild_join and guild_leave?

[vivid fulcrum]

it's GUILDS

unless you mean members joining and leaving guilds

[opal plank]

yes, that

[vivid fulcrum]

which lib are you using, some require a full member object (including the presence) to emit the event

[opal plank]

detritus

shouldnt need it at all

[earnest phoenix]

is there an event for when window.hash changes

[slender thistle]

Why the star import

[lusty quest]

i sort of want to make a discord bot. but i dont have a good idea.

[earnest phoenix]

i'm making an SPA with window.history.pushState stuff and i want the react component to rerender when the hash changes

[lusty quest]

also i might want to learn a new lang for it

[vagrant sorrel]

Hey i had another question,
so basically i know what i am doing is wrong and is lazy but,

    let getPrice = async () => {
      let result = await fetch(`https://api.wazirx.com/api/v2/tickers/${command}`)
      let json = await result.json()
      return json
    }
    let com = await getPrice()```
and i have another function for description, i,e ==>

if (command === command && 'info') {
let getInfo = async () => {
let result = await fetch(https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/${command})
let json = await result.json()
return json
}
let com = await getInfo()```
to use getPrice command it .s btcinr
to use getInfo command is .s bitcoin info
but when I call for the latter, the former if condition gets called and it doesnt work.

prefix: .s

[rapid wharf]

without that star, it was showing module not callabe

[slender thistle]

??????????????????????????????????/

sec

[rapid wharf]

i also couldn't understand the reason behind it but ya its true

[lusty quest]

your 2nd if statement will probably never fire

[rapid wharf]

do u know why to import star 🤔 @slender thistle

[slender thistle]

What is this shit even suggested

I'm so sceptic of this package and I literally just found out about it

[vagrant sorrel]

that is exactly the problem. How can i generalise the use of my command so that the if statements dont interfere?

[earnest phoenix]

i love how you are using wazirx api for price and coingecko api for info

[lusty quest]

maybe look into switch cases or use a different way to check if the 2nd argument exist

[rapid wharf]

😂😂

[rapid wharf]

btw both have diff prices for the same crypto, i use them

[earnest phoenix]

use coingecko's api for both

[vagrant sorrel]

yea lol I am gonna change it, i am in an experimenting phase right now

[earnest phoenix]

it shows the average price of a heckload of exchanges
with wazirx's api you're gonna get the price on only that exchange

[rapid wharf]

yes yes or better is use Coinbase or Binance if avaliable @vagrant sorrel

[terse sphinx]

Hi I'm looking to make a vote reward command , ie vote to use command , how can I do so , any example , I'm having issues understanding the docs

[vagrant sorrel]

yes I was working on implementing coinbase

[earnest phoenix]

#topgg-api

[terse sphinx]

Ok

[vagrant sorrel]

So yea any way on how i can make both the if statements work simultaneously?

[earnest phoenix]

put the info one first

and make the ticker one an else if statement

if (info stuff) {
  do shit
} else {
  do shit
}

actually you dont need the second if part

[vagrant sorrel]

i am going to put more functionalities so i will require else if

[slender thistle]

Why are you even using that package

Like

I just opened its init and found this

>>> loop.run_until_complete(pyrandmeme())
<discord.embeds.Embed object at 0x000002B689499160>
>>> loop.run_until_complete(pyrandmeme()).to_dict()
{'image': {'url': 'https://i.redd.it/ol7aaw9xpn071.png'}, 'color': 15277667, 'type': 'rich', 'description': 'Meme Request', 'title': 'Meme'}

Something you can do yourself

[vagrant sorrel]

else iffing doesnt work, it still goes to the first api and fcks up. "i did not get anything, i wont even check what comes after me, sorrryy"

[slender thistle]

Now on to FiveM

Okay this package didn't even success at being a proper module

Just where the hell did you grab this from

Why can't you just use aiohttp for this

[rapid wharf]

🥲🥲 i m noob, i dont even know how to use aiohttp

learning day by day

also i started a python course

to learn python

[slender thistle]

Yeah well pyrandmeme is kind of acceptable, although a redundant package

[rapid wharf]

ohh

[slender thistle]

As for FiveM, you can ditch it

If FiveM has an official API, look into it. But first, I'd really advise getting hang of basics of Python before getting into more advanced projects

[rapid wharf]

btw that api is for fivem server dev, and this if to collect data from server and send it here

[slender thistle]

Let me see their node.js package

[rapid wharf]

ohk

[slender thistle]

Python wrapper loosely based on node wrapper which is based on the C# wrapper

Ya well I give up here kekw

[rapid wharf]

😂😂 u see its not officially build

[gritty lintel]

Hey

Anyone Can Help With Me In Discord.py

[umbral zealot]

No one can help until you actually ask your question ^_^

[cinder patio]

use react-router

[trail finch]

My bot named yoink will be offline for one month.. So please don't decline it

[quartz kindle]

they dont care lol

[sudden geyser]

some bots are offline for months and they don't do anything

maybe even years

[quartz kindle]

i think he means the verification

just apply again if it gets denied

[sudden geyser]

if so then yeah

[earnest phoenix]

Yo

In the strf.time the %M for the month right?

[slender thistle]

First of all, what library and what language

[earnest phoenix]

like ```ctx.guild.created_at.strftime(" %#d /%M/ %Y")

[slender thistle]

%m is the month

i'm getting this error 🥲 please help

[slender thistle]

The alias hello is already an existing command or alias.

[earnest phoenix]

Why would you have your name as an alias

[slender thistle]

Is that the issue kekw

[tulip knoll]

@client.command(aliases=['hello', 'hey', 'hi'])
async def h(ctx):
responses = ['Hello, how are you?', 'Hi', 'Wasssuup!']
await ctx.send(choice(responses))

[tulip knoll]

yeah, i'm still learning 🥲

[earnest phoenix]

I mean, you could've removed the hello from the aliases, but that's fully up to you tbh

[tulip knoll]

i removed it and now it shows

[earnest phoenix]

I-

You removed the hello from the aliases as well as passed a list on to the name parameter, name can only be str

[tulip knoll]

;-;

[slender thistle]

Sound familiar?

[tulip knoll]

it's working now, thank you ;-;

https://tenor.com/view/thanks-thank-you-dwight-gif-3898407

[cinder patio]

you could make a rectange with the same width and height as the canvas before you draw the image

[pale vessel]

Use fillRect() first?

[cinder patio]

yes, use fillRect before you draw the image

[earnest phoenix]

Wh-why would you add it back?

[tulip knoll]

it's working now 🥲

[slender thistle]

I can't

[slender thistle]

I legitimately can't

[earnest phoenix]

FYI though, in case you don't know, if nothing was passed on to the name parameter, it'll take the function name as the command name

[pale vessel]

What's not working?

[lusty quest]

why did you post a image with a dead dude?

[weary crypt]

bruh

[lusty quest]

@rustic nova

[pale vessel]

What?

[cinder patio]

oop

[pale vessel]

Huh

[lusty quest]

and hes gone

[pale vessel]

Was it actually bad?

I didn't see

[lusty quest]

there where a dead due that got shot

[cinder patio]

I don't think that was a real dead guy tho

[weary crypt]

It was a dead guy leaking blood from his stomach

[lusty quest]

lying infront of his car

[rustic nova]

yeah nah

[proper bolt]

lmao it looked like it mightve been an album cover or something ?

[modest maple]

Nice to see nothing has changed much

[lusty quest]

also if you post this stuff, some context would probably help

[rustic nova]

gimme a sec

[pale vessel]

It's an album cover?

[lusty quest]

even then i wont post it here lol

@opal plank i use TS and detritus now for about an hour and managed to break it entirely, nice.

[modest maple]

sounds like TS

[storm knot]

how do I get the bot to wait for audio to finish before playing the next

[lusty quest]

like it cant find node-fetch even tho its installed

[cinder patio]

you need to install it's typings as well

npm i @types/node-fetch

[lusty quest]

yea figured this out, but even when they are installed they dont get picked up

and i now know why it started to yell, somehow it doesnt want to pickup dontenv properly

[opal plank]

wait what

dotenv doesnt have something to be picked up

its just process.env

[lusty quest]

yea it got a bit weird and doesnt want to pickup installed modules, requires me to restart vsc

[opal plank]

did u install ts globally?

[lusty quest]

ye

[eternal elbow]

I have a little question, I made an application in react, it works fine, the proxy is set to 3001 and the api is already working 3001, everything is fine until here, but when I connect it to the domain "example.com/api/get" does not respond to me here and react directly redirects to the website? Should I do it as "http: //ip:3001/api/get" or is there any other solution?

[opal plank]

the dotenv lib has typings too

oh

i have an idea what might be doing that

[lusty quest]

ive had import 'dotenv/config' working, but now it doesnt want to

the typings are deprecated

[opal plank]

which types are deprecated?

[lusty quest]

dotenv

@types/dotenv

[opal plank]

if u used my config it should exclude node_modules

so when you compile with ts-node it wont scream about it

thats precisely why i told you to use it instead

[pale vessel]

You don't need @types/dotenv

It comes with its own type declarations

[opal plank]

^^

was about to comment on that

theres no need for dotenv

also, i assume you got the 3 libs in the bottom installed on ur project too

tslib, typescript and ts-node

though its stupid to mark is as dependency

i mean just straight up installed as dev-dep

you dont wanna ship it with this unless you use scripts with it required(which i do, specially debuggers)

@lusty quest if u get stuck, dont sweat about asking

the configs i sent you should make it rather painless to run it

[lusty quest]

dotenv is usually my go to stuff for having stuff like API keys inside

@opal plank looks like ts ignores all files for some reason

[cinder patio]

what's your file structure

[lusty quest]

wont read config.json

[cinder patio]

wdym won't read config.json

what errors are you getting

[lusty quest]

got it solved. added "resolveJsonModule": true,to the tsconfig

[opal plank]

@lusty quest in bathroom

1 sec

[lusty quest]

?

[opal plank]

oh, it was feud who asked the structure

cuz the stuff i sent you is path-bound

[lusty quest]

yea i know

[opal plank]

i just removed mine when i sent you

i thought it was excluding the folder cuz of that path

[lusty quest]

no it just ignored the json file, probably the .env file too

[opal plank]

thats cuz its including only *.ts files

notice how my configs are outside /src

[lusty quest]

ohh wait yea makes sense

yea my config is also outside of /src

but still wont read it

unless ive added the line mentioned above to the tsconfig

[opal plank]

hmmm thats a bit odd, that should only happen when you run the code

[cinder patio]

that's just how ts handles json

[opal plank]

ide shouldnt be bitching about it

[lusty quest]

errorlens just cried about it, when ive added the line it just worked fine

[opal plank]

ooooh

you're importing json right?

not requiring()

if so, that makes sense

[lusty quest]

yes

[opal plank]

yeah, then it makes sense

[cinder patio]

es6 imports cannot import json that's why there's a specific option

[errant perch]

hypothetically if i were to hire a developer to do something where would i go

[opal plank]

fiverr

if u want something cheap

doesnt coders-den have a channel for advertising that?

[errant perch]

idk maybe

[zinc wharf]

Personally, I would choose friends

[errant perch]

sorry, but my friends are idiots

[opal plank]

not gonna find any better here

[zinc wharf]

https://giphy.com/gifs/morgan-freeman-gizNb7K86Q8Sc

[opal plank]

[polar cove]

i mean depends on what you want to buy

[errant perch]

idk honestly seems like too much trouble

[royal herald]

[polar cove]

sure ig, if you don't want to learn and just want a finished product that's the easiest way to do things, just pay a person to make you a bot

[opal plank]

assuming you want a bot

[polar cove]

have had a few people ask me the same thing before

[vagrant sorrel]

i get treated with this error when i try to shift all my commands to another js file and then export them
referenceError: client is not defined at bot.module.exports

[errant perch]

just need some code for a time sensitive feature, not a bot

[royal herald]

Hey erwin do yo know java? @opal plank

[opal plank]

in all honesty, most devs that wouldt be competent for a decent job at all

[polar cove]

whats the feature and the lang woogie?

[opal plank]

not enough to give feedback on it, no

[errant perch]

using tradingviews charting library and making a png of the charts generated by it in nodejs

[lusty quest]

@opal plank is there a smart way to get a dynamic command handler? the example bot you sended modifies the vanilla detritus client for it.

[polar cove]

i mean you can definitely save money, you can just ask in the official discord api server or even search it up on google, you can 100% avoid spending money imo

[opal plank]

define dynamic command handler. the commandClient IS a command handler

[lusty quest]

so i could just export the commandClient and call it in other files and it will pick them up?

[vagrant sorrel]

anyone?

[opal plank]

let me give you a basic example so you know how this works

[lusty quest]

yea sorry that i ask so much, but the docs are not the best

[opal plank]

this is loading the commands

and this is reloading them in a command

that simple

[lusty quest]

thats nice compared to d.js

[opal plank]

anything inside the folder u point to, will import anything you export default

look

this is an example command

anything exported default will be picked up to be imported by the commandClient

[lusty quest]

nice

[opal plank]

the extension is just so i dont have to repeat the same thing over and over on every command

which is basically this

just i dont have to add those on EVERY SINGLE file

which is just plain annoying and repeating

[vagrant sorrel]

https://tenor.com/view/lorna-quit-ignornig-me-oitnb-phone-smash-gif-11342748

[opal plank]

but you dont need this at all

the only thing that you need to know is that commandClient will import anything in the folder you have in ur files, always the default export

it will NOT import anything else

[lusty quest]

ok

[opal plank]

realistically, this is all u need to worry about has far as "dynamic" hot-reloading goes

[opal plank]

read the error

[lusty quest]

i need to get the stuff in my head first, but thanks a lot.

[opal plank]

this is simple

[vagrant sorrel]

first of all i need to work with that bot thing i used in my main js file which the commands js file cant acess, second the api functions are unable to do anything cuz there is no catch statement?

[opal plank]

if its still confusing, let me knopw, i can try explaining better

[vagrant sorrel]

what to do?

[opal plank]

define it

[lusty quest]

i will get it eventually, but i can process informations the best if i hammer my head with them and then take a break to let it sit a few hours. rinse and repeat until you dream from it.

[marble juniper]

learn how to debug
it will make ur life easier and ours even more

[opal plank]

fair enough. Well, like i said, this is really simple. look at the types for ts <CommandClient>.add()

[vagrant sorrel]

const bot = Client? or const bot = new Discord.client()

[opal plank]

thats basically what your file structure can/should have

[opal plank]

you need to learn js

you clearly copying stuff that you dont know what it does

[vagrant sorrel]

i know js. but its fine

thanks tho

[opal plank]

np

[lusty quest]

yea i get this already. but if you want it to become more popular, reworking the docs would be a good place to start

[marble juniper]

look at this

lol

[opal plank]

i already told cake that same thing

[lusty quest]

there is so much stuff that just say what type it expect

no explanation what it does

[opal plank]

thats why the best way to get to know it is intellisense and checking his bot's repo as a base

[opal plank]

this is an issue, indeed

it is a more sofisticated library, as is rn, it expects you to know ts already

intellisense and the discord docs should guide you, but for new users? yeah, its a mood killer

i cant google "How to add a reaction in detritus?" and have 58 stackoverflow answers

[vagrant sorrel]

I'm sorry, but how?

[marble juniper]

you said you know js

[opal plank]

if you dont know how functions and/or variables work, you dont know js

[marble juniper]

now I believe thats a lie

u lied

[opal plank]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Errors/Not_defined

[vagrant sorrel]

arre i got rid of that problem

i defines it

now there are 10 more errors to go

[opal plank]

welp, good luck

[vagrant sorrel]

cool

[marble juniper]

learn js

https://discordjs.guide/#before-you-begin

it has some guides listed there

[sudden geyser]

how many people actually check read and listen to that page

[marble juniper]

probably not many
but better if you did if you don't wanna stand there completely dumb

also only that section

many people probably use that site

lol

its a great guide

[prime glacier]

client.on('message', message => {
    if(message.content.startsWith(prefix + "dm")){

        var args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split(/ +/g)
        var args = args.slice(1).join(" ")

        client.guilds.cache.get("716718729186246757").members.cache.each(m =>{
            m.send(args).catch(err => { return });
            if(!m.send(args)){console.log('Cant Dm This Person')}
            console.log('message sent to ' + m.user.tag) 
        }
        )
    }
})```can i add 10sec cooldown?

[sudden geyser]

yes

[marble juniper]

use setTimeout

[sudden geyser]

you'll need to store previous invocations

and set a timeout to remove it

[marble juniper]

oh that

[sudden geyser]

and check if the timeout has expired

e.g. https://discordjs.guide/command-handling/adding-features.html#cooldowns

[marble juniper]

https://discordjs.guide/command-handling/adding-features.html#cooldowns

I was gonna send

that

smh

[sudden geyser]

speedy

[marble juniper]

whatever

not fair im on mobile

[earnest phoenix]

Hello I am getting this error while installing discord-rpc https://gyazo.com/4e2f3913774a81eebdbc8ec4cd2c8549

Whats the solution for this?

[prime glacier]

can you guide

[sudden geyser]

read the guide

[sudden geyser]

djs is probably not the user you're looking for

[earnest phoenix]

Then?

How to solve the issue?

[sudden geyser]

There's https://www.npmjs.com/package/discord-rpc but I've not had experience using RPC

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[round quiver]

/

ehmm

[marble juniper]

1. learn js
2. you are not using classes properly
3. learn js

[round quiver]

shh alr -

[marble juniper]

if you have a constuctor

you use a new statement first

new Discord.MessageEmbed()

like this

[round quiver]

oo

thenks will try

[marble juniper]

also use codeblocks

you can make codeblocks using 3 `

at beginning and end

[round quiver]

ahh yeah ty

[earnest phoenix]

@marble juniper Can you help me?

[marble juniper]

no Idk how to fix that

[earnest phoenix]

ok

[latent heron]

@slender thistle my favorite error

[marble juniper]

naisu

[tribal quest]

const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');



module.exports = async (client, member) => {
    if (member.guild.id !== '814044423473070103' || member.bot) return;

    const channelWelcomeEmbed = new MessageEmbed()
        .setColor('#ffd6d6')
        .setTitle('Welcome!')
        .setDescription(`${member} just joined the discord! Make sure to read #rules!`)
        .setTimestamp();

    member.guild.channels.cache.get('814044423473070103').send(channelWelcomeEmbed);

    const dmWelcomeEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setColor('#ffd6d6')
        .setTitle('Welcome!')
        .setDescription("For Help Using DavBot, Send The Command `<help` In Server")
        .setTimestamp();

    member.send(dmWelcomeEmbed);

};

Somebody knows why my bot doesnt send the embed?

[wheat mesa]

You need to specify that it’s an embed in the .send parameters

member.send({ embed: dmWelcomeEmbed })

[tribal quest]

but it also doesnt send the mesage in the channel

[boreal iron]

🤦‍♂️

[wheat mesa]

Yes, you need to do the same thing for that as well

[tribal quest]

oh im not that good in english sorry

[wheat mesa]

That’s okay!

[boreal iron]

Not only your English is lacking...

[tribal quest]

good motivation XD

im new in coding so sorry

general ik its a big step but im reading books about java script and so on

what would you recommend for starting

[wheat mesa]

I mean... js is perfectly fine for starting...

[slender thistle]

Python and JS are fine for starters

[wheat mesa]

js and python are good choices

[slender thistle]

They are simple and straightforward

[crimson vapor]

imho JS is easier to learn

[tribal quest]

yes i also think its very simple

[slender thistle]

Turbo Pascal, fuck you

[wheat mesa]

They simplify a lot of the more complicated aspects of OOP languages like C++ and so on

[opal plank]

just learn assembly first

wont ever struggle with other langs

and haskell for you to get into the insanity level a senior dev has

[wheat mesa]

Enjoy using 10000 lines for your first program

[tribal quest]

@wheat mesa can i dm you for a small question

[wheat mesa]

I’m not sure if I could answer it, you should probably just post it here

[tribal quest]

okay because i dont want to get hate becasue of my begining skills but yea i ask it here:
the bot still doesnt send the message heres again the code:

const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');



module.exports = async (client, member) => {
    if (member.guild.id !== '814044423473070103' || member.bot) return;


    const channelWelcomeEmbed = new MessageEmbed()
        .setColor('#ffd6d6')
        .setTitle('Welcome!')
        .setDescription(`${member} just joined the discord! Make sure to read #rules!`)
        .setTimestamp();

    member.guild.channels.cache.get('814044423473070103').send({ embed: channelWelcomeEmbed });

    const dmWelcomeEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setColor('#ffd6d6')
        .setTitle('Welcome!')
        .setDescription("For Help Using DavBot, Send The Command `<help` In Server")
        .setTimestamp();

        member.send({ embed: dmWelcomeEmbed })


};

ah thats good

i try it once without dm and then i look if there error is in the dm

[wheat mesa]

^^

[tribal quest]

the funny thing is there is no error

[wheat mesa]

How are you executing this code in your main file

[tribal quest]

the bot starts everthing is fine than i join with my second account on my testing server and nothing happens

[tribal quest]

its in my event folder

what do you mean

[lusty quest]

@opal plank any idea why it cries about this?

[tribal quest]

if im seriuos i dont know what you mean

ah okay i send it

const fs = require('fs');
const discord = require('discord.js');

const client = new discord.Client({ disableMentions: 'everyone' });

const { Player } = require('discord-player');

client.player = new Player(client, {leaveOnEnd: false, leaveOnEmpty: false});
client.config = require('./config/bot');
client.emotes = client.config.emojis;
client.filters = client.config.filters;
client.commands = new discord.Collection();

fs.readdirSync('./commands').forEach(dirs => {
    const commands = fs.readdirSync(`./commands/${dirs}`).filter(files => files.endsWith('.js'));

    for (const file of commands) {
        const command = require(`./commands/${dirs}/${file}`);
        console.log(`Loading command ${file}`);
        client.commands.set(command.name.toLowerCase(), command);
    };
});

const events = fs.readdirSync('./events').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
const player = fs.readdirSync('./player').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));

for (const file of events) {
    console.log(`Loading discord.js event ${file}`);
    const event = require(`./events/${file}`);
    client.on(file.split(".")[0], event.bind(null, client));
};

for (const file of player) {
    console.log(`Loading discord-player event ${file}`);
    const event = require(`./player/${file}`);
    client.player.on(file.split(".")[0], event.bind(null, client));
};

client.login(client.config.discord.token);

there is a open source discord bot and im trying to intergrate some special things in the bot

im learing

yes

[wheat mesa]

I would follow the discord.js tutorial docs to get started on a bot first.

[opal plank]

for command?

[wheat mesa]

You should learn js before attempting to build a bot as well

[opal plank]

use this ```ts
import { Context, ParsedArgs } from 'detritus-client/lib/command';
async run(payload: Context, __args: ParsedArgs): Promise<any> {

@lusty quest ^^

[lusty quest]

ok

[tribal quest]

yea okay you´re right

but for the future the error is in my index.js

[wheat mesa]

https://discordjs.guide/ @tribal quest

[lusty quest]

still cries about client could be null

[tribal quest]

i have it already open

[wheat mesa]

You should follow the tutorial on creating your first bot there rather than copy pasting some open source code and modifying it. It's much easier.

[opal plank]

use context.commandClient

or

do this

[crimson vapor]

hello

[lusty quest]

yea i get what you mean

[opal plank]

  async run(payload: Context, __args: ParsedArgs): Promise<any> {
    const message = payload.message;
    const cc = message?.client.commandClient;
    if (!message || !cc || !message.channel) return;```

[lusty quest]

added optional chaining, but if client is null it would be quite annoying

[opal plank]

i add that ontop

[lusty quest]

can ts-node hot reload like nodemon?

[opal plank]

i wouldnt recommend tbh

why do you need reload like that?

if you want to re-import the files, just cc.clear() and cc.addMultipleIn() onto another reload.ts command

[lusty quest]

so i dont have to ctrl x the process and restart it

if i change a file

[crimson vapor]

you could use tsc -w which watches the changes and nodemon .

which would run the code

[opal plank]

i would disencourage that tbh

[crimson vapor]

what do you do then?

[opal plank]

i click here like a civilized person

debugger always attached, since its development workspace

[lusty quest]

right, you run it inside the debugger

yea it instantly yells at me

[tribal quest]

okay so bye thanks for the motivation have a great day and bye

[opal plank]

what exactly yells at you?

[lusty quest]

some file called loader.js

[opal plank]

huh?

did u run with the script i sent?

[lusty quest]

it doesnt want to take the script

[opal plank]

make sure u use the one i sent

explorer enabled

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[opal plank]

and that launch.json i sent before

[opal plank]

[lusty quest]

yea got it running

even tho in the time ive made discord bots i never used the debugger

[opal plank]

its, the, best, thing, ever

trust me

wont go back

[lusty quest]

i give it a shot

[cinder patio]

who needs a debugger

[lusty quest]

ayy got now a working command with base command constructor

[earnest phoenix]

Hi

How can I pass React.js api calls (localhost:3000/api/get) to express (example localhost:3001/api/get) ?

[cinder patio]

react.js api calls? React is a frontend ui framework

vscode is a text editor

[eternal elbow]

No, it's not like that, for example, when a request is received to localhost:3000/api/get/user/123456789, it should forward it backwards, but it doesn't work.

[cinder patio]

forward it backwards I'm not sure what you mean

[eternal elbow]

localhost:3001/api/get/user/123456789 this works but my domain is connected to port 3000

No, it doesn't exist, for example when a request is received to localhost:3000/api/get/user /123456789, it should redirect to backend, but it doesn't work. @cinder patio sorry my bad english

[cinder patio]

You can't use uptimerobot for your bot if you are hosting it on your PC - also, it's pointless as you can make your bot run 24 7 yourself by just not stopping the process

[rapid wharf]

In d.py
After fetching diff things from Api, how to send them in this format using embeds [player id]: player name
Code i wrote, but its just sending an embed with only one person:

    for player in players:
        em = discord.Embed()
        em.add_field(name='Players', value=f'Player Id:{player.id} , Player Name:{player.name}')
    await ctx.send(embed=em)```

[cinder patio]

I mean I guess you can use it but with tons of setup

[lusty quest]

@opal plank does isClientOwner reference to the Account who created the Bot application or the Guild owner?

[slender thistle]

embed = discord.Embed()
for player in players:
    em.add_field(...)

Don't recreate a new Embed object in the loop

[rapid wharf]

let me try'

[cinder patio]

I mean I guess... if repl is the way you host your bot

[near stratus]

actually I use uptimerobot to do what it was supposed to do. Keep track of uptime

[cinder patio]

can't you connect repl.it to github

[cinder patio]

Still, using it on a server which is hosted by your PC is hard, you have to setup portforwarding so uptimerobot can ping your IP

also, for a discord bot you don't have to use uptimerobot, you can keep track of the uptime yourself

[near stratus]

with fs ?
that'd be hard

Even if i use a db it'd be harder

[opal plank]

is CLIENT owner, its the owner of the bot

[cinder patio]

setting up an entire http server just to keep uptime is overkill

[near stratus]

Also I don't host on my pc (I use a VPS)

[opal plank]

aka ur userId

[cinder patio]

the person I was replying to were

[lusty quest]

thx

[near stratus]

lemme introduce you to express

import express from 'express'
const server = new express()
server.all('/',(req,res) => res.send("okay")});
server.listen(3511)

(This works somehow without nginx too)

• I'm lazy

and I encourage everyone to be lazy

[cinder patio]

overkill for a discord bot

[tardy lion]

if (!member.hasPermission(`ADMINISTRATOR`)) return `Missing 'Administrator' permission`;

[returns member not defined]

[cinder patio]

hmmm... weird... as if member isn't defined

just a guess tho

[tardy lion]

link sus

[cinder patio]

@rustic nova

[tardy lion]

steam shouldnt have a ru tld

[cinder patio]

suspicious link

[tardy lion]

or spelling steam and community wrong

[cinder patio]

sterm community lmao

[rustic nova]

-b @earnest phoenix steam scam

[tardy lion]

wth is a sterm

lol

[cinder patio]

yeah anyways member is not defined

[tardy lion]

ok

[near stratus]

it's permissions.has()

[tardy lion]

so

!member.permissions.has?

[near stratus]

hasPermission() is deprecated

maybe removed

[near stratus]

yes

[cinder patio]

not the source of the error tho

show more of your code

[tardy lion]

all it is.. is some shop.json stuff

[near stratus]

maybe he was trying guild.me or something I guess

[tardy lion]

which isn't the problem

[near stratus]

where did you define member ?

[tardy lion]

in the index.js file

[cinder patio]

😩 man

[near stratus]

b r u h

[tardy lion]

what

i required it

[near stratus]

show the code where you defined member

[cinder patio]

how are we supposed to help you when you are giving us basically no information

[tardy lion]

ok

[near stratus]

he gave us some info actually
member is defined in index.js
and
he has a shop.json file

[boreal iron]

Just ask your magical glass ball

[regal jacinth]

guys, i managed to set up the environment and the scripts for my bot in digital ocean, how do i host it 24/7 ?

[near stratus]

he broke his one

[regal jacinth]

it's in python

[tardy lion]

ok

[near stratus]

in DigitalOcean it's always 24/7

[tardy lion]

i can't find member in the js file

[regal jacinth]

but it's not running rn

[cinder patio]

send your entire js file then

[near stratus]

*calm down don't kill that little guy he's trying to get help here

[tardy lion]

ok

[near stratus]

with token

[rapid wharf]

i can suggest a hosting, come dm

[regal jacinth]

no

[tardy lion]

the token is in token.json

[rapid wharf]

as u wish

[regal jacinth]

why wherever i ask for help regarding digital ocean some dude DM me with server links lol

[opal plank]

well, lets test it

[tardy lion]

https://pastebin.com/hVPtcGKH

[opal plank]

Digital ocean

[cinder patio]

they want you to use their shitty vps service

[regal jacinth]

i already know a bunch of them but i want something better

[crimson vapor]

what do you use to start your bot?

[regal jacinth]

python3 filename.py

[near stratus]

@regal jacinth https://youtu.be/lskn1Xr-q8E

[regal jacinth]

that starts it

that's js

mine is py

[crimson vapor]

you would need to use a process manager or something idk

[rapid wharf]

where do u host

[crimson vapor]

I use pm2 for nodejs

[tardy lion]

ads are unrespondive

unrespobndive

[regal jacinth]

digital ocean

[tardy lion]

unresponsive

lmao xe

xkj

xd

[pale vessel]

2 Geometry Dash, gamer

[tardy lion]

TWTG GDPS and RobTops GD

[crimson vapor]

I don't see a member in this paste file

[rapid wharf]

is it paid or free??

[regal jacinth]

paid

[tardy lion]

e x c a t l y

e x a c t l y

[cinder patio]

Did you save your file

[crimson vapor]

its in a command

[tardy lion]

yes

[crimson vapor]

use message.member not member ig

[tardy lion]

ok

[regal jacinth]

@near stratus the video is in js, i code in py lol

[near stratus]

what fs did you use ?

[tardy lion]

why the heck do i have 3 bot.js notepads open

lmao

[regal jacinth]

fs?

[near stratus]

FTP

[crimson vapor]

why does FTP matter

they just need to host their bot

[near stratus]

I'm guessing the bot isn't starting

[near stratus]

he did

[regal jacinth]

hmm?
i just did ssh root@IPaddress then set it up

i installed the requirements and uploaded the files

[cinder patio]

ok so what's the problem

[tardy lion]

it cannot read perms of null

[regal jacinth]

it's just not online

[cinder patio]

you have to manually start it

[near stratus]

did you start it ?

[crimson vapor]

doesn't know how to host it all the time

[cinder patio]

install a process manager and run your main py file

[regal jacinth]

i tried python3 filename.py but it just runs until i close my pc or editor

[tardy lion]

i leave my pc on 24/7

to host my bots

[cinder patio]

hm.... it shouldn't stop when you close your pc or editor

[regal jacinth]

hmm

[cinder patio]

maybe you're actually running it locally?

[regal jacinth]

no?

i believe it's connected

i did ssh root@IPaddress

[crimson vapor]

well

if you close the ssh, does it stop?

[near stratus]

no

[crimson vapor]

it should

LOL

[near stratus]

We use pm2 in node

to keep the bot alive

[regal jacinth]

i tried to close the terminal and it stopped

[cinder patio]

why would it stop when you close the ssh

[tardy lion]

pm2 is trash

[cinder patio]

the vps is still running

[near stratus]

on DigitalOcean

[cinder patio]

you're just no longer connected to it

[near stratus]

it does

[crimson vapor]

because they are only doing python filename.py

[tardy lion]

i use cmd prompt

[regal jacinth]

hmm then how should i run it?

[near stratus]

That's why we use pm2 but IDK Python has PM2

[crimson vapor]

it stops everything when the ssh ends

[regal jacinth]

^

[crimson vapor]

there are a few ways to do it

you could use screen/tmux
services
you could also use pm2, I think (im not sure lemme check)

yes you can

[near stratus]

pm2 is for node right ?

[crimson vapor]

https://pm2.io/blog/2018/09/19/Manage-Python-Processes

comes with npm but can be used for much more

[regal jacinth]

oh

[near stratus]

wait a second lemme try

[regal jacinth]

why is it so hard to use digital ocean

[crimson vapor]

its not

[sudden geyser]

Python Manager 2

[near stratus]

Yea, you can do pm2 python3 main.py

[crimson vapor]

this is all vps things

[marble juniper]

qts

[crimson vapor]

https://img.terano.dev/Lcw3XW5N

[regal jacinth]

alr

[near stratus]

Production Process Manager

[crimson vapor]

you're likely going to need to install pm2

[near stratus]

anyways mone works too

[regal jacinth]

yeah figured it out the hard way

[boreal iron]

Why even bothering with external packages? Just create a service and that’s it.

[crimson vapor]

simpler

[vivid fulcrum]

this

[near stratus]

IDK how I use it in my case so I suggest it

[vivid fulcrum]

pm2 is overkill

[near stratus]

But easier

[vivid fulcrum]

at the cost of more resources

[near stratus]

Just do npm i -g pm2

[rocky hearth]

what is web v9?

[earnest phoenix]

my bot is 24/7 music 🙂

[boreal iron]

Googling how to setup a simple service will show you how easy it is

[sudden geyser]

external tooling is always trying to get in your way

[vivid fulcrum]

do you mean gateway v9?

[rocky hearth]

no, I'm seeing firebase documentation. There is web v9 code snippets

[vivid fulcrum]

oh

[boreal iron]

You just need to create a file, enable the service and start it - 3 easy steps

[errant perch]

how do i get a list of all members in a guild

[boreal iron]

The guild object contains a property members

[pale vessel]

Not all of them

[errant perch]

any way i can view all of them?

a bunch of scam bots just joined my server and im trying to get rid of them fast

[pale vessel]

You need the guild members intent

[errant perch]

ok i have that enabled

[pale vessel]

What library are you using?

[errant perch]

discord.js

[pale vessel]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/GuildMemberManager?scrollTo=fetch

guild.members.fetch()

Await the promise

[errant perch]

k

thank you so much

[crimson vapor]

ill await your promise

[slender thistle]

Resolve your promises or get rejected.

[sudden geyser]

literally

[rapid wharf]

i made an embed where i retrive the information from an api and the value is big enough that it could not fit in one embed, then how to send the rest of information as next embed

[opal plank]

d.js has a split method

[rapid wharf]

py

[opal plank]

you could just slice the string into 2k parts

[dense spire]

can i do (channel obj).send(embed) or do i have to do (TextChannel obj).send(embed)

[sudden geyser]

You usually need the instance.

[opal plank]

for slice in array_of_slices:
send(slice)

perhaps

not a py expert

[rapid wharf]

its actually em.add_field(name='Players', value=f'Player Id:{player.id}') so once embed fills with 25 fields, rest info is not shown, i want to send the rest info in next embed

many bots do this

[dense spire]

i have a counter that resets at 10

[opal plank]

you get the idea

just send an embed for each slice of the string u have

[slender thistle]

https://github.com/mardix/paginator.py/

this package works

[sudden geyser]

@rapid wharf you'd need to break the embed into chunks.

If you want to send multiple embeds.

[rapid wharf]

it will be 125 embeds then

[sudden geyser]

if you want to paginate instead, see what shivaco sent.

[opal plank]

correct

you havea 6k limit on embeds either way

i guess you could add fields on it instead

to bulk 2 a ta time

per message

[rapid wharf]

😂😂

[stable nimbus]

How would I archive a channel into an image before deleting it?

[opal plank]

a what

u cant archive channels

u will be able to do some stuff of the sort with threads tho

but not channels

[stable nimbus]

You can before they are deleted, most support bot features this type of thing.

[opal plank]

they dont

you cannot archive a channel

[stable nimbus]

I'm meaning the contents inside, messages, images, etc.

Legit you can I watched a bot do it.

[opal plank]

you are not saying things that correlate

you cant archive a channel. period

what you are explaning is a delete-logs

where it'll copy a message's content into another channel

thats not archiving at all

archiving is a thing that'll be present in threads, and its not public yet

or you mean a lockdown command

where it'll prevent people from saying anything else in that channel

[crimson vapor]

just rename the channel and remove people's perms to see it

ezpz

[lament stump]

Does someone know how to align these two things horizontally in HTML / CSS?

I think something with a container, but I am not 100% sure how they work

[stable nimbus]

Then what the hell is this?

Its a channel archive of a ticket I closed a while ago.

[slender thistle]

Those things differ per each bot

[stable nimbus]

I'm looking to try something like it, I understand it differs but I still want to try.

[opal plank]

looks like a ticket system

[stable nimbus]

Yeah, I'm trying to improve my ticket system with an archive.

[opal plank]

also what is up with that english

what archive?

theres no archive in a ticket system

just dump the conversations in a database

[stable nimbus]

I give up.

[opal plank]

you are not explaining what you want

[stable nimbus]

I have.

Several times.

[opal plank]

u havent

"i want to archive a channel"

thats how u started it

[opal plank]

,

[stable nimbus]

I wanna take a picture of inside the channel, all the messages, all the attachments, and shove it into an image or a .txt file.

Canvas is what I am looking for.

[silk wadi]

I'm not sure, try wrapping them in a p tag?

[opal plank]

you'd need to render it, i would recommend doing what i said and saving the logs in chat and in a database instead

[lament stump]

I'll try that, thanks c:

[stable nimbus]

Yeah and I'm fine with rendering it, I'm not shoving it in a database.
