[earnest phoenix]

o-o

[vivid fulcrum]

make your characters variable a const since it doesn't need to ever change

[earnest phoenix]

Okay.

[vivid fulcrum]

yeah i mistype a lot

lol

[earnest phoenix]

What would I do after "characters"

Dear god spelling.

[vivid fulcrum]

the place where the three dots are at?

[earnest phoenix]

I have yet to ever use a loop.

[vivid fulcrum]

or?

[earnest phoenix]

Correct.

[vivid fulcrum]

you place whatever you had there in your old snippet

oh also

here's docs for for

[earnest phoenix]

  mystr += characters['ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789-='];

???

[vivid fulcrum]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/for

[earnest phoenix]

[vivid fulcrum]

no 🤦

[earnest phoenix]

I have not ever used this loop thing.

xD

< Me

[vivid fulcrum]

that's why i linked you the docs

[earnest phoenix]

Oh dear xD

Give me a few weeks

stealthy.exe has shutdown

@vivid fulcrum Yup, the docs were very useful......

I-

[vivid fulcrum]

that's because you skipped all of the useful text and went straight to the colorful code blocks

[earnest phoenix]

I read almost everything

[vivid fulcrum]

in another words

whatever you have inside for is going to keep executing until the condition of the for loop becomes false

[earnest phoenix]

Ohhhh, okay.

Now that makes more sense.

xD, alright, welp, imma go try a few things.

[lyric mountain]

well, I said you has to use an inner div

but anyway

use the previous method

but fine tune it by using f12

[lament stump]

I am using an inner div lol

If you mean a container

[lyric mountain]

then you put stretch in the wrong place

do the same way you did here

but fine-tune with f12

[lament stump]

I did, it's working

but not for the titles

[lyric mountain]

how so?

[lament stump]

there, do you see the issue

not the out of bounds text

[lyric mountain]

use margin

[lament stump]

the fact that one box is higher

[lyric mountain]

use justify-content

[lament stump]

i am lol

[lyric mountain]

you're not

justify-content has an option to stretch

[lament stump]

justify-content: space-between;

that is what i am using

[lament stump]

i figured it out with min-height and max-height

[shadow frigate]

is logging command usage of a bot against discords terms of service?

[umbral zealot]

It's not, but having it public is a gray area.

[shadow frigate]

How about only allowing a bot support team to view the log channels?

Will I not have to specify that my bot logs commands to members?

[umbral zealot]

That's still "Private"

[shadow frigate]

Alright aha, thank you

[drifting wedge]

Hey @umbral zealot on that topic

Im allowed to log command errors?

And guild logs right?

For me to see

[umbral zealot]

Uhh yeah of course

[drifting wedge]

I am gonna eventually log literally everything

For the server staff to see

Like for example, messages per day

Etc etc

Nothing too private

But that's fine?

[umbral zealot]

I don't see why not

[drifting wedge]

Ok cool

[umbral zealot]

Error logs are common

[drifting wedge]

I mean like yeah

That's visible to me

But like imma have in depth logging

That is like LITERALLY EVERYTHING

like for example when a user sends a message etc

Not for me

But for the guild staff

Like would that be fine?

basically a discord analytics thing, but better

And with a poggers ui

[umbral zealot]

"user sends a message"???

Why does it have to be such a dumb ass example

If you mean a counter though... That's perfectly fine

Feels like you want a blanket statement, that's impossible to provide.

[lyric mountain]

don't log sent messages' content

[drifting wedge]

yeah

it will be like just that a message was sent in CHANNEL

not like who sent it

or what it contains

[lyric mountain]

also don't log channel name

[drifting wedge]

uhh

what if i hash it?

[lyric mountain]

let's say youre going into a very dangerous spot

the grayest area

[solemn latch]

is there any real reason you want to log "LITERALLY EVERYTHING"?
the point of logging is to have a purpose, logging for the purpose of logging makes no sense.

[drifting wedge]

yeah there is

so im making a analytics page for the server staff

[lyric mountain]

also remember every log you add will add more processing time to your bot

[drifting wedge]

uhh

ig so, but like its all async?

idk how do explain it

like for example

if a channel is created

the bot sends it in the log channel

but logs it after?

so it doesnt like slow that down?

[drifting wedge]

so for example, if woo (the server admin) wanted to see how many messages in #general were sent this week, compared to last weeks

@lyric mountain @solemn latch

[solemn latch]

do you need to log anything then?

just a counter is plenty

[drifting wedge]

well yeah

id log the channel name though?

or the id

and just request the name when the person is looking at it

thats the idea?

what "logging" did u think i was thinking of?

[solemn latch]

#development message
logging this.

👀

[drifting wedge]

oh

wait im confused

so for example

if i have a "log" of the messages this week

[lyric mountain]

numbers are numbers

[drifting wedge]

itll store:

guild ID
channel ID {
how many messages this week
}

[lyric mountain]

they are anon

[drifting wedge]

yeah

so thats fine?

[wheat mesa]

Discord already has a search feature that allows you to see how many messages were sent, and the content of all those messages in specific channels during specific dates. Logging this type of information seems kind of redundant

[drifting wedge]

you cant visualize it

like for example

if you wanted to see

if u wanted to compare: members joined: to members left

you cant graph it easily

if u wanted to compare: members joined to members who joined and sent a message

etc

[solemn latch]

maybe just use a time series database?

[drifting wedge]

ill look into that

i gtg rn

but just logging numbers is fine right

channel names, not so much?

[wheat mesa]

Anyone know if it's against Youtube TOS to make a youtube to mp3 or mp4 converter?

[solemn latch]

you can just associate the data with channel ids, so its properly anonymous. You can then get the name from discord with that id when you need to display/graph data.

[solemn latch]

very very likely against their tos.

[wheat mesa]

thought so

Couldn't be illegal though could it? I feel like ytdl-core would've been shot down very quickly if that were the case.

[earnest phoenix]

Hey, soooo, I am obv back again with yet AGAIN, another Question.

        welcome.composite(avatar, 40, 55).write('Welcome2.png')

So I have that coded., how would I make it so it goes into the .setImage() portion of a embed?

[solemn latch]

ytdl-core has had a ton of issues hasn't it?
there was the whole github thing recently with it.
its also pretty common for software to be made and not be illegal, but illegal to use.

realistically, no its not illegal until you break a specific law, such as unlicensed redistribution or something.

[solemn latch]

.setImage(welcome.composite(avatar, 40, 55).write('Welcome2.png'))
?

[earnest phoenix]

I thought of that xD

I never tried it lmao

[wheat mesa]

Wouldn't this technically be a problem with bots like rhythm, seeing as they play music with what I'm assuming is ytdl

[solemn latch]

it might be more work, theres a weird quirk with discord image embeds, but cant remember what it is.

[earnest phoenix]

@solemn latch

[solemn latch]

it very well could be a problem for rhythm at some point, and any bot using it, however you tube doesn't seem to take any action.

[earnest phoenix]

Would it just happen to be that^?

It flooded my console XD

My google froze

[solemn latch]

ah yeah you have to attach the image, then use setimage. https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/embeds.html#using-the-embed-constructor

[earnest phoenix]

Thanks for the docs link xD

Can you elaborate on "attach the image"?

ohhh

.attachFiles()

Gotcha.

Wait, this is constructing a image.

It is not in assets.

[wheat mesa]

Makes sense, google probably just can't be bothered to pursue a civil case against discord bot developers

[solemn latch]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/MessageEmbed?scrollTo=attachFiles
pretty sure you can use a buffer(FileOptions)

[drifting wedge]

so i can store all the guild data together

and have the guild id separate

and then preform some sort of algorithm with the guild id to find the data?

[solemn latch]

I would probably store all of it by channel id, then get the relevant channels.
if you wanted all the channels of a guild, you would have that mapped in another database, or just use the discord api.

[drifting wedge]

ok so for example

if i have a guild database

can i or not have like just one document with like guild id, guild name, etc etc

?

[solemn latch]

realistically, you wouldnt keep all data from a time series data in a single document.

[drifting wedge]

ok but im asking more like is it allowed?

like is it bad safety practice?

i get that its bad code practice

but im trying to understand the safety side of things

[solemn latch]

safety wise, you are storing more data than you strictly need, which is always bad.

[drifting wedge]

gotcha

im making an api to fix all that

but like for example the analytical time data

that i cant request

bc like its from the past

like for example if i need the guild name from the id, ill use the api

but if i need to get the data from a month ago

[solemn latch]

thats one of the very few times it would be okay, with guild owner consent.

[umbral zealot]

Analytical data is fine. Discord doesn't really care if you count messages, even messages from a user

[drifting wedge]

ill delete the data every month btw

[umbral zealot]

However, logging content is a completely different beast

[drifting wedge]

yeah

but like for example

[umbral zealot]

So. Logging numbers : no problem. Logging text: super bad idea.

[drifting wedge]

loging analytical data based off the channel id

thats fine

like basically

[umbral zealot]

yes

[drifting wedge]

ok cool

[umbral zealot]

ID isn't user data

[drifting wedge]

thats it then

the name is right

[umbral zealot]

You're not allowed to log things people typed or people uploaded or people sent without their constent, and when you have it, it has to be secured, encrypted, deleted on demand, etc etc.

[drifting wedge]

ok

[umbral zealot]

But stats? Discord don't care at all. It's not personal, it's not identifiable, that's fine.

[drifting wedge]

what about bot stuff?

like currency balance

for example

[umbral zealot]

that's your data so.... yeah it's fine

[drifting wedge]

ok poggers

[umbral zealot]

Mee6 and its points and levels is annoying but absolutely not a problem

[drifting wedge]

tysm woo and evie

also just wondering

if i have an api which is really just like domain.com/internalapi/RANDOMNUMBERS(token)/request whatever

is that fine

ik its not like in the data bla bla bla

but does it matter?

[solemn leaf]

is not erwin still here

[solemn latch]

putting tokens in the url is bad practice, as urls are logged in several places, such as server logs.
i believe the url is encrypted during https requests, but it will still be logged unencrypted places.

[umbral zealot]

putting tokens in the url is bad practice
Tell that to Discord Webhooks

[drifting wedge]

the api would be basically

from inside the machine

[umbral zealot]

why do it through http then

just use IPC instead

[drifting wedge]

its like localhost:blablabla/request thingy

yeah ive tried

didnt work as i wanted

[solemn leaf]

why did you do blabla bla

it can only be numbers

: is stating which port

[drifting wedge]

i know

@umbral zealot ipc didnt work as i wanted for many reasons

i had to switch frameworks to use ipc

if bot or webserver restarted it broke

[umbral zealot]

[drifting wedge]

flask doesnt have a discord ipc

[umbral zealot]

I mean sure, ok.

[drifting wedge]

quart does

[umbral zealot]

but if it's localhost

why the token

[drifting wedge]

oh

uhh idk lmao

it wont hurt?

[umbral zealot]

put it on a port that's blocked from the web

problem solved, no one can reach it

[solemn leaf]

bruh localhost

[drifting wedge]

google did this

[solemn leaf]

no body should be able to see it

actually

[drifting wedge]

and it didnt work

[solemn leaf]

unless you forward it

[drifting wedge]

:p

[solemn leaf]

tot he web

[drifting wedge]

basically

even if i did that

eventually, one day in the future

[solemn leaf]

just comment it out

[drifting wedge]

idk how to explain it

i know what u mena

ty tho

[pale vessel]

no problem I guess

[wheat mesa]

Currently attempting to write scuffed HTML and js to keep the height and width values in an input box in a 16:9 ratio... html <label for="widthRes">Width</label> <input type="number" id="widthRes" min="1" oninput="calcSize(); AspectRatioWidth(true)" placeholder="Insert number here"><br><br> <label for="heightRes">Height</label> <input type="number" id="heightRes" min="1" oninput="calcSize(); AspectRatioWidth(false)" placeholder="Insert number here"><br><br> for some reason my second function AspectRatioWidth() does not seem to get called. Is there any reason for this?

function AspectRatio(toggleHeight) {
    const getCheckboxState = document.getElementById("scalarValue");
    document.getElementById("test").innerHTML = "Works";
    if(getCheckboxState.checked == true) {
        const width = parseInt(document.getElementById("widthRes").value);
        const height = parseInt(document.getElementById("heightRes").value);
        if(toggleHeight) {
            document.getElementById("widthRes").value = height*(16/9);
        } else {
            document.getElementById("heightRes").value = width*(9/16);
        }
    }
}
``` method for reference ^

I fixed it by just calling AspectRatioWidth() in my calcSize function instead. Not a great solution, but hey, it works.

[lyric mountain]

Why are you multiplying width by 9/16?

[wheat mesa]

^

1920*(9/16) = 1080

keeping 16:9 aspect ratio

[drifting shell]

Apparently I've a syntax error in my sql query but I have no clue where it is

worked fine on my local db also running the same version iirc

alter table discord_user_premium add column applied_api_id varchar(191) default discord_api_id after discord_api_id;

[old cliff]

what is an efficient way to delete more than 100 messages in one go?
Loop? or what?
coz I don't want to get ratelimited

[drifting shell]

deleteMessagesByIds

bulk delete

[keen wedge]

I hate SQL errors, it says there's an error but doesn't say where, fucking hell

it just says "check your manual" or some shit like that

[rocky hearth]

hey guyz, in css, how can I clip a inline span to its parent div. Just like a background-clip: text is for text. But I want to do the inlined span instead.

[floral rune]

kind of old but you should use document.addEventListener if possible. You could also wrap the two functions in an anon function to ensure they both run: ```html
<input type="number" id="widthRes" min="1" oninput="(function() { calcSize(); AspectRatioWidth(true); })();" placeholder="Insert number here"><br><br>

[floral rune]

just to prevent an xy problem, what exactly are you trying to do with this?

[rocky hearth]

I want to make 20 vertical bars (spans), gradient to right in red-yellow-green.

[floral rune]

as a background?

[rocky hearth]

some thing like this, but separated with some spacing

[floral rune]

if it wont have anything in front of it maybe try a flexbox parent div with 20 children each colored with the gradient pattern
for the spacing you can just add a margin to the children

[rocky hearth]

nvm, I achieved the effect with repeating-linear-gradient property 🙂

  backgroundImage: 
    repeating-linear-gradient(to right, transparent 0, transparent 6px, white 6px, white 10px), 
    repeating-linear-gradient(to right, red 0%, yellow 50%, green 100%);

[floral rune]

ah i wasnt aware you were ok with a smooth gradient

that works then

[light pumice]

Regarding VPS's, what are the recommended locations to bring your bot ping super low?

I'm using digitalocean so anything specifically relating to that would be great. In general as well is useful

I've heard San Francisco area is good but I could be wrong.

[grave kestrel]

help?

[rapid wharf]

Python Vs Javascript which is better for bot dev in long time???

[quartz kindle]

new york

[quartz kindle]

doesnt matter theyre both bad :^)

[earnest phoenix]

How much time?

[quartz kindle]

time for what

[earnest phoenix]

How much time will it take to add my bot in top.gg??

[quartz kindle]

if youre waiting for approval it takes 1-3 weeks

[earnest phoenix]

1 week 5 days passed

Sed

[signal grotto]

Some one know an application or a website to create a cool bot website?

[woeful pike]

vscode

[signal grotto]

a simple application 😂

[woeful pike]

oh sorry

notepad++

[earnest phoenix]

Did it got full or not started

[light pumice]

Any reason why? Why would it be better than San Francisco?

[quartz kindle]

last i heard the api gateway is there

i have a vps in new york, gets me 25 ws ping

but try it from san fransisco and see how much you get

[woeful pike]

why would you go for SF? discord doesn't host their servers in their headquarters lol

[quartz kindle]

imagine if they did

home server :^)

[neat crater]

Hmm so for the verification there is a question asking about data collection
Do server member ids count as data being collected?

[quartz kindle]

yes, just explain that you collect them for x y z reasons

for example for storing user configuration

[neat crater]

Thanks

now what do I write here?
How the bot is hosted and all that stuffs?

[quartz kindle]

ye

[near stratus]

[earnest phoenix]

i have IP open to all

[exotic lotus]

How do i change new Date()'s UTC timezone according to the server's region?
Like if server's region is US East nd time is May 5, 2029 16:39 in utc nd bot will convert it to timezone of US East which is GMT-5:00 ig

[lusty quest]

its not recommended tho

[exotic lotus]

Help someone please? 🙏

[copper cradle]

you can call toLocaleDateString on a date object, and then pass in the locale

[earnest phoenix]

can I DM cause I dont see any option to fix that error

[near stratus]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8945029/how-can-i-convert-a-date-to-gmt/41905475

Thanks akio

[near stratus]

np

[earnest phoenix]

How do i change repository?

[umbral zealot]

That is a great question that I don't know and can't find the answer to, so you should probably ask on their discord
https://repl.it/discord

[opal plank]

now THIS is a first

token in config.js

[umbral zealot]

is it now?

we do that in guidebot because our config also has code to check for perm levels

https://github.com/AnIdiotsGuide/guidebot/blob/master/config.js.example

[south sinew]

Currently, I'm rewriting my bot in TypeScript, and I'm currently contemplating how I want to build it. I could just use tsc, but I'm considering using a tsickle + closure setup with either webpack or bazel, as that's what I use for compiling frontend web applications. Not sure if it makes sense or if it's good practice, so figured I'd ask here

[willow mirage]

(node:7680) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: body used already for: https://discord.com/api/v8/users/SOMEID

what does this mean?

[umbral zealot]

Yeah but the point Erwin is making is that it's usually .JSON not .JS

[opal plank]

either .json or .env, but yeah

i'd personally go against using .js/.ts for tokens

mainly cuz we are all dumb and we'll likely forget to .gitnore it or end up commiting the changes and accidently leaking it

[quartz kindle]

why do people keep using .env tho

instead of using the actual env

[opal plank]

what

[quartz kindle]

the .env package and the .env file

why use it

just use the actual system env

or node env

or whatever

you could simply do MYENV=123 node file.js

or if you're using pm2, you can put everything in a pm2 ecosystem file

[opal plank]

i only use stuff like that as argsv

for a token, its fine, but isnt it consuming to have to add another line on your command to run node everytime?

[quartz kindle]

usually you have something that runs node for you

like pm2 or a startup script to run it in the background

so you just add it there

[opal plank]

but at the end of the day it'd be the same, you either have to edit the script, or edit the .env

[quartz kindle]

ye but i mean

the entire env functionality already exists

the .env package is not needed

its just another useless dep

[opal plank]

guess u have a point

[south sinew]

I think it's biggest use case is having it .gitignored and throwing tokens and keys or whatever that you don't want public into it as opposed to having to edit package.json or pm2 config or whatever is being used to start the process

And for example, I have a .env with an array of YouTube authorization headers, that'd be quite ugly to have a 400 character long line in a startup command

[quartz kindle]

i use the pm2 ecosystem file

all pm2 processes are managed from a single file

[south sinew]

Yeah, same case, you'd be having to be careful to not comnit tokens, but I suppose you could just use a config.js and import it and gitignore it

[quartz kindle]

the ecosystem file is in the system root

outside of the working dir

[south sinew]

ah I see what you mean now

I was thinking of smthn else

yeah that makes sense

problem is a lot of people don't use that system, so I think that's where dotenv is applicable

[quartz kindle]

you could also do ENV_VAR=value pm2 start app.js

and pm2 will remember it through restarts

[south sinew]

Yep

But again, some people don't use pm2 😛

[umbral zealot]

Oh yes now I need a batch file to start my bot, or editing my actual environment variables to change my prefix. Brilliant!

[south sinew]

Prefix should be in like a config file

[umbral zealot]

Depends.

[south sinew]

Only stuff that should be in a .emv realistically is sensitive configuration, that being tokens or whatever

[umbral zealot]

It's always a case by case basis

We use .env files for development, or because places like repl.it require it.

[quartz kindle]

repl.it doesnt even use env files anymore

besides, at that point whats the difference between an .env file to anything else like .config .ini .json etc?

i like using env the way it was made to be used

if i want anything stored in a file i'll just use a json file or something and gitignore that instead, no need for another dependency to read a file

[eternal osprey]

    message.guild.roles.create({ data: { name: 'Verified', permissions: ['VIEW_CHANNELS', 'READ_MESSAGES'] } });
    message.guild.roles.create({ data: { name: 'Non-verified', permissions: [0] } });``` is this a valid way of giving one of the roles reading and viewing permissions and the other none

[earnest phoenix]

it has lot diffrent to json but not that much to ini and config

[drifting wedge]

ok so i have a delete button

and i want the entire div to disappear

when u click it

but idk how

[crimson vapor]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/remove maybe

[drifting wedge]

yes, but i need to get the big div element

like it doesnt have an id

and if it did, it wont work well

[quartz kindle]

besides the data format i mean

[quartz kindle]

if the button is inside the div you can use .parentNode

[drifting wedge]

lemem try

[silent hornet]

hey anyone know how to fix : bot crash when join in a stage channel?

[earnest phoenix]

discord js version?

[umbral zealot]

my thought exactly

[silent hornet]

12.3.1

[umbral zealot]

that's not possible

discord.js is at 12.5.3

[silent hornet]

sry

AHHA

[umbral zealot]

Update.

[earnest phoenix]

try updating discord js

[silent hornet]

only need to update xD

ok

[earnest phoenix]

yup

v11 dont even recoginize stage channel ids

[umbral zealot]

indeed

[quartz kindle]

v11 crashes on stage channels

[umbral zealot]

I keep telling people "hey yeah you had a full year to update, so that's on you"

[earnest phoenix]

^^

[quartz kindle]

on the other hand, there's the saying "if it works dont fix it"

:^)

[crimson vapor]

if it works, don't fix it. unless its deprecated

[silent hornet]

now doesnt crash

[umbral zealot]

"If it ain't broke don't fix it" works for physical machines, not for programming code on external systems 😛

[silent hornet]

but leave istant the channel (nothing in console)

[drifting wedge]

it works

but deletes everything

like so 1 .parentNode leaves the bot

box

but removes content

then 2 of them

deletes all the boxes

[silent hornet]

@earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

updated?

[silent hornet]

yes

now dont crash

[earnest phoenix]

well,

no idea

[silent hornet]

but dont stay in vc

left istant

😦

[drifting wedge]

i see the issue

all good

[silent hornet]

there are some documentations about stage channels?

[drifting wedge]

pog ty

[umbral zealot]

They're literally just like voice channels, mostly

[quartz kindle]

stage channels are not supported in v12 technically

you need to use the master branch

[silent hornet]

yes but my bot say that I must be in vc channel (if i am in stage channel)

is a music bot

[umbral zealot]

code?

[silent hornet]

js

[quartz kindle]

discord.js v12 treats stage channels as "unknown" so it doesnt register them in the cache

[silent hornet]

but groovy can play song in stage channels

[umbral zealot]

groovy isn't using discord.js is it

[silent hornet]

oh okay

[quartz kindle]

if you want support for stage channels you have to use the master version

which is v13 thats in development and not officially released yet

[silent hornet]

so I can't make that the bot play in s.c. if I use discord.js v12

[silent hornet]

ohh

Has anyone ever used this? https://github.com/aio-libs/async-timeout

[rocky hearth]

check if the string is number like this
if(!isNaN(+args))

[tribal siren]

yo everyone

i got a problem with my leveling system

so first lemme show the code then lemme show the bug

and this is the bug

i don't understand what causes the bug and i request your help

[rocky hearth]

what's the bug?? Does it always show level 3?

[tribal siren]

no it just loops the level 3 for one user

it also loops level 6 for me

and other dude with some other level

[lavish bramble]

const user = message.mentions.users.first
if(!user) return message.channel.send("Please mention a user to give money")
		
		const money = args[1]
		if(!money) return message.channel.send("Lamo you are not giving anything to that user!")
		if(!isNan(money)) return message.channel.send("Money should be in numbers")

When I type only
--give them it sends me money error not user error

[tribal siren]

const user = message.mentions.members.first()

if(isNaN(money))

that's it

[pale vessel]

if you're not using an editor like notepad then your editor should scream at you already

[rocky hearth]

first convert args[1] to number
const money = +args[1]

[tribal siren]

why do !isNaN() if isNaN() is is Not a Number so !isNaN() is is not Not a Number

= is a Number

[south sinew]

Is anyone able to answer this

[tribal siren]

idk typescript so no im not able to

[rocky hearth]

if the string is a number then !isNaN() returns true

[tribal siren]

yes

[rocky hearth]

you can use ts-node with nodemon, then u no need to build everytime u make changes

[south sinew]

Yeah that's an option, it's more or less entertaining options for production building

For building in dev I'd be using something simple

[earnest phoenix]

Or deno with --watch flag

There is a deno port of discord.js on deno.land

[south sinew]

I don't use djs

[earnest phoenix]

what

then what do you use

[south sinew]

discord-rose

https://github.com/discord-rose/discord-rose

[earnest phoenix]

import the module in deno with import stuff from "https://esm.sh/discord-rose" if it's on npm

[south sinew]

berry brainwashed me

[south sinew]

yep

[earnest phoenix]

and deno is 30% smaller than nodejs because it doesn't have npm as it imports stuff from url

I'm tryign to host on replit from heroku

and I dont know what is going on

[earnest phoenix]

how... are you hosting a project on replit from heroku

[stiff lynx]

nope, I'm moving my project from heroku to replit

I've uploaded the file from my computer to replit

[umbral zealot]

well the error is saying you don`t have a file called index.js here

[stiff lynx]

ok i did it

[earnest phoenix]

Is the cache like a Discord Collection so you can use client.channels.cache.find(x=>x.name==="test")

[stiff lynx]

what happen if I host the same bot on 2 clients?

[umbral zealot]

it`ll probably answer twice to commands

[stiff lynx]

But it is really better replit than heroku? I ask because I wanted to do a test. I'm using the same commands with same code but from different bots and the heroku one answer faster

[umbral zealot]

Neither is better unless you pay for them.

[stiff lynx]

novabot with logo Is on Heroku

[umbral zealot]

So why do you want to move away, then?

[stiff lynx]

idk, I've Heard that Heroku Is Better

[latent heron]

whoever you heard that from doesn't sound very smart, no offence

[stiff lynx]

sorry

replit Is Better

[umbral zealot]

Both free services are going to be crap

There are no good free hosting services. Period.

[latent heron]

It costs money in the real world for good stuff

[charred nest]

^^^

[stiff lynx]

obv

[latent heron]

You could be like me though

[charred nest]

i recommended digitalocean myself, it’s safe & secure and you only pay for what you need

[latent heron]

run the bot on your own computer and never turn the computer off

[stiff lynx]

with my Intel Pentium lol

[latent heron]

you only need good wifi

[earnest phoenix]

only

[charred nest]

“only”

[latent heron]

with a bot running either in JS or Python? yeah

[earnest phoenix]

[latent heron]

both are very well optimized languages

[stiff lynx]

this Is my wifi

[earnest phoenix]

decent

[latent heron]

or well, if you have good standing code, you should only need wifi to begin with

284 mbps is more than decent, that's very good

anything above 20 mbps honestly is good enough lmao

[earnest phoenix]

where on earth are you living then

[charred nest]

mcdonalds

[earnest phoenix]

284 is not even close to decent for me

that's when it's a shit day of internet

[latent heron]

that sounds more like a standard you've set for yourself lol

[earnest phoenix]

if not, reallyyyyy shit

[latent heron]

the lowest i get is 70 mbps but highest i've gotten was 350 mbps

[earnest phoenix]

[latent heron]

lol what

[earnest phoenix]

🤏

[latent heron]

ok and

i pay for the internet bill myself

[earnest phoenix]

cool

[latent heron]

i'll choose what plan works best for me

judging people for wifi speed anything over even 10 mbps is dumb

[charred nest]

some people just genuinely can’t get that

[latent heron]

which is why it's considered rude

[charred nest]

highly populated areas/rural areas/etc, can’t control what they can’t

[earnest phoenix]

not judging people if you would read

[stiff lynx]

Italy 🪓

[earnest phoenix]

i am judging the speed

[latent heron]

alright so you're also indirectly judging the plans people choose with their ISPs

[earnest phoenix]

I am indirectly judging the guy

[latent heron]

you don't need to explicitly call it out in order to be judgemental of it

[earnest phoenix]

i am indirectly judging his family

i am indirectly judging his grand parents

I am indirectly judging his country

i am indirectly judging earth

so i am indirectly judging everyone

4head

[latent heron]

your argument makes no sense

[stiff lynx]

everyone Is trash

lol

[pale vessel]

no u

[latent heron]

arguing semantics of a word to justify a point

[earnest phoenix]

you started saying i am indirectly judging

then i just said who or what i am indirectly judging

so now you can say i am rude to everyone on earth

[latent heron]

no you're honestly just a smartass trying to play it off cool and that's also annoying as hell

[earnest phoenix]

[charred nest]

alright, i think this conversation is just going to go in circles & isn’t relevant to development anymore, let’s move off of this

[crimson vapor]

what the fuck is this conversation?

how is 280mbps slow????

[earnest phoenix]

What even is going on here

@MILLION#1321 familiar with discord-rose?

[crimson vapor]

yes

90% of the time people use less than 10mbps im pretty sure

[earnest phoenix]

nice
what is
client.channels.cache.find(x=>x.name==="channelname")
in discord-rose
worker ??????

[south sinew]

If you enable cache, kinda yes but different syntax due to funny

[earnest phoenix]

yeah i will disable some props

[south sinew]

I'd recommend looking at the wiki and docs

https://rose.js.org

[earnest phoenix]

already saw it but did not find out where it get saves as worker.channels.cache or without.I will have to try it ig

[crimson vapor]

worker.channels.find(e => e.name === 'name') or something

[pale vessel]

where are you getting that cache from

[south sinew]

^

[pale vessel]

it's not discord.js

[earnest phoenix]

work with disabled props too?

[crimson vapor]

uhh

I think so?

[south sinew]

Id have to test that

[crimson vapor]

well

just enable it

[south sinew]

Experiment

[crimson vapor]

I mean I use everything enabled but without intents

[earnest phoenix]

I want to just use discord-rose bc custom caching

[south sinew]

Also million I have a PR berry is waiting for your approval on

[south sinew]

Yeah it's nice

[crimson vapor]

ik ik

[south sinew]

Command handler is also bussin

[crimson vapor]

my internet went out yesterday

[south sinew]

Rip

[crimson vapor]

I couldn't do anything for a few hours

ill look at it today

[south sinew]

same happened to me late at night lol

I was talking to berry in vc then I just left

[crimson vapor]

it was like 2 pm to like 12 or something

[south sinew]

rip

[earnest phoenix]

let me test it

[south sinew]

Nice thing is the library is quite small as opposed to the likes of eris and djs so if you need to figure out how something works you can just look at source

[crimson vapor]

I mean like

yeah but no

[earnest phoenix]

yeah okay,btw are there internal shards?

[crimson vapor]

yes

[south sinew]

Sharding config is mainly set through BotOptions

[earnest phoenix]

okay gd

[south sinew]

It's just, "how many shards total do you want" and "how many shards should a cluster have"

[wicked pivot]

bot.guilds.cache.get('846512453658738720').channels.create('📝 Chat ' + Channel, {
                            type: 'text'
                        }).then(async(chan) => {
                            await chan.setParent('846512454103859222')
                            await chan.overwritePermissions([
                                {
                                    id: 846512453658738721,
                                    deny: ['VIEW_CHANNEL']
                                },
                                {
                                    id: 846512453658738720,
                                    deny: ['VIEW_CHANNEL']
                                },
                                {
                                    id: user.id,
                                    allow: ['VIEW_CHANNEL']
                                }
                            ])
                        })```

that's all permissions except the user

[umbral zealot]

IDs are strings not integers.

use quotes around all IDs in your code.

[lavish bramble]

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

What is disableMentions

[earnest phoenix]

or use String()

[umbral zealot]

It disables... mentions.

[south sinew]

For clarity an id is this

`${bigInt}`

[lavish bramble]

Is there is any other event then disableMentions

[earnest phoenix]

disableMentions: 'everyone'

[wicked pivot]

thx

[crimson vapor]

when typed, yes @south sinew

[umbral zealot]

wrong.

[south sinew]

🤯

[crimson vapor]

but most people don't care about it

[umbral zealot]

Also wrong.

[lavish bramble]

!

[umbral zealot]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/typedef/DisableMentionType

[latent heron]

doesn't JS also do bit rounding or smth?

[pale vessel]

you forgot n

[south sinew]

It is technically a big int when typing it

[pale vessel]

or BigInt(number)

[south sinew]

it's greater than whatever the stupid for it is

[umbral zealot]

yeah ok but discord.js treats them all as strings

[south sinew]

2e52 I think

[umbral zealot]

so trying to use bigint is completely pointless

[crimson vapor]

no one uses bigints

they are just typed using literals

https://img.terano.dev/puyRdN3U

[south sinew]

I'm just saying when it's typed that's what it is

[crimson vapor]

its the same thing

[south sinew]

^

[umbral zealot]

Ok but guys this isn't useful to a user that just wants to use discord.js

[crimson vapor]

I agree

[south sinew]

I suppose

[umbral zealot]

It's great to flex that you know what a bigint is, but it's not useful to anyone in this context.

[south sinew]

In like 4 contexts it is

I'm not trying to flex information I'm just saying it to be helpful

[umbral zealot]

It's not broken

[crimson vapor]

its not wrong?

[south sinew]

Sheesh

[crimson vapor]

its just the way its output

[umbral zealot]

It's 100% working correctly

[crimson vapor]

there is no reason to output the "" for a string

[umbral zealot]

Now do the same thing with 683630053686378498 which is the context in which we're in right now

Show the result of String(683630053686378498) and tell me again how my eval is broken.

not the typeof

the result

I know it's a string, you noob

[crimson vapor]

why are you doing string on a number

its not even a bigint

[tulip ledge]

Hey I wanna learn react with electronjs to make dekstop apps with JS but when I run my start command: "electron-react": "concurrently \"BROWSER=none npm start\" \"wait-on http://localhost:3000 && electron .\"" I gain this error:

[crimson vapor]

just keep ids as strings and move on

why does it even matter

its not

thats how mine does it

https://img.terano.dev/LN6S5iaU

I don't see what you are on about

[umbral zealot]

Sorry, I'm getting agitated. I just can't stand people flexing ridiculous knowledge thinking they can one-up my 20 years of experience, when all I want to do is fix an issue for one user that doesn't understand any of this shit.

@earnest phoenix eval String(683630053686378498) please.

Go ahead. Humor me.

[crimson vapor]

its not getting output as a number

[latent heron]

its almost as if

its not outputted as an int

[umbral zealot]

Look HERE

this is why what you're saying isn't useful to anyone.

[latent heron]

[umbral zealot]

Do you see how this number is not the same?

[crimson vapor]

would you mind doing 'O' + "w" + 'O' and tell me if the quotes are output in the eval

[latent heron]

have you tried

type checking

it

[umbral zealot]

Nobody gives a shit it's a string, jesus christ

It's the wrong string

[crimson vapor]

they won't be

Evie's output was not changing it to a number

[umbral zealot]

It's not the ID that this person is trying to give to permission overrides, because it's no longer the same ID

[crimson vapor]

it was just joining the two strings

[latent heron]

if you're doing permission checks you should be checking the mutated ID, so the ID after the change

why are you checking the old one

it's literally the wrong string even as such

the whole point is you're trying to perform a logical operation to check if the comparison of both are equal and they're literally not

you're going to genuinely give people brain aneurysms RAKE lmao

[umbral zealot]

The worst here is that the person that asked the question was answered and helped like 15 minutes ago and y'all are still flexing how you think you understand JS integers.

So pointless.

[real vine]

Anyone knows speak Arabic here

[umbral zealot]

#general-int does

This channel is english only

[crimson vapor]

I honestly don't see anyone really trying to flex, just a miscommunication trying to prove another person wrong

[latent heron]

no

[crimson vapor]

no

[latent heron]

it is a flex

[crimson vapor]

@earnest phoenix you cannot use integers

[umbral zealot]

It would not

Literally would not

And I've proven this to you

you've proven it to yourself

It won't

[crimson vapor]

@earnest phoenix integers don't have the precision that IDs use, you need to keep it as a string

[latent heron]

and it clearly doesn't

[umbral zealot]

are you blind or being stupid right now?

[latent heron]

it's literally been proven to you

and you're being stubbornly ignorant

[crimson vapor]

@ripe prairie

[latent heron]

@ripe prairie

ugh

[crimson vapor]

too slow

[umbral zealot]

It's RIGHT HERE that it doesn't work, right in your face, my friend.

[earnest phoenix]

ah i see what you mean

[visual goblet]

hello so whats a bufsize in python?

File "C:\Users\Cameron\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\subprocess.py", line 778, in init
raise TypeError("bufsize must be an integer")
TypeError: bufsize must be an integer

[umbral zealot]

Once again I have disabused someone of an erroneous notion.

[earnest phoenix]

but what is the function for String() then? when it is still a number

[umbral zealot]

It converts a number type into a string type

[crimson vapor]

stinky pun

[ripe prairie]

doesnt that error just pop up for a variable?

[umbral zealot]

It's not "still a number". It's a string containing a number.

[ripe prairie]

send full error/code

[visual goblet]

i dont even know where the error is it doesnt say

[umbral zealot]

"12345" is not the same as 12345, @earnest phoenix

[visual goblet]

OHHHHHH

nvm got it sorry

[ripe prairie]

🤔

[visual goblet]

i was testing this janky ass way of running a javascript file with my python code

and it didnt like it

[ripe prairie]

well theres your first problem

using js

[visual goblet]

LMAO

[umbral zealot]

[earnest phoenix]

so how would you convert a number to a string then?

[crimson vapor]

ok

basically

IDs are never numbers

they should NEVER be treated as numbers

[umbral zealot]

They are technically numbers, but js cannot process them as such.

[crimson vapor]

using a number means you lose precision

[summer torrent]

snowflakes

[crimson vapor]

don't confuse him please

thank you

what we learned from this conversation

IDs are strings

treat them as such

[umbral zealot]

The problem here, isn't converting a number to a string. It's processing/reading numbers that are larger than JS's MAX_SAFE_INTEGER. That number is 9007199254740991 , anything bigger than that cannot be processed this way.

[crimson vapor]

I actually used numbers for my first database

[umbral zealot]

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number/MAX_SAFE_INTEGER for reference.

[crimson vapor]

every ID ended with 00

learned my lesson

[slender thistle]

I'm confused why you would run JS along with Python

[crimson vapor]

you wouldn't

[earnest phoenix]

correct That's why discord creation age are not correct .Since they use snowflakes

[crimson vapor]

not exactly

djs utils does a lot of work to get it correct

I yoinked a function that seems to work when I needed it

[slender thistle]

How do you generate snowflakes in languages that don't support int64 is my question

[umbral zealot]

I'm guessing you wouldn't be able to.

[slender thistle]

Do you literally take right-most character from last ID, increment it, then put it back

[tulip ledge]

how do I fix this?

[earnest phoenix]

huh

[umbral zealot]

yes?

[quartz kindle]

if they dont support bigints or any other arbitrary precision arithmetic, then you can do it in multiple steps and converting each piece to string

[stiff lynx]

What I have to do for hosting 24/7 on replit?

[slender thistle]

Use uptimerobot

[earnest phoenix]

hacker plan or uptime robo

[slender thistle]

Multiple steps = ?

[umbral zealot]

See full guide here: https://anidiots.guide/hosting/repl

[stoic thorn]

$tu

[stiff lynx]

how I get the link?

[tulip ledge]

can someone please explain how tofix my issue?

[quartz kindle]

timestamp.toString() + instance.toString() + sequence.toString()

you will need a bit of padding tho

[slender thistle]

Run a webserver along with your bot

You will have a repl.co URL. That will be the URL to send your requests to

[stiff lynx]

the code before the token?

[slender thistle]

Oh, I see

[umbral zealot]

just read the whole thing

[quartz kindle]

timestamp doesnt need padding since its the front of the sequence

[stiff lynx]

It says at the bottom

[umbral zealot]

what does it say at the bottom

[quartz kindle]

but the instance and sequence bits need to be padded to 4 characters if they output a number smaller than 1000

[umbral zealot]

It tells you how to keep the bot awake

and it gives you 2 things to do

Do both.

[tulip ledge]

#development message

how?

[earnest phoenix]

linux windows?

[tulip ledge]

windows

[earnest phoenix]

I need more info do you run it on a local machine or remote device with public ip?

[tulip ledge]

local machine

[earnest phoenix]

did you set the port?

[tulip ledge]

wdym set the port? I'm new to react and electron

[stiff lynx]

I did it, but it doesnt turn green

[tulip ledge]

win.loadURL('http://localhost:3000') this?

[umbral zealot]

well look at the error message you probably did something incorrect

[earnest phoenix]

okay i see go to package.json

[tulip ledge]

yup

[earnest phoenix]

scripts .start

[tulip ledge]

  "scripts": {

  },

[earnest phoenix]

and change it too "set PORT=3000 && react-scripts start"

I want to align items like this with flexbox:

/--------\           /----------\
| [left] |  [space]  | [center] |
\--------/           \----------/

how do i do that?

[tulip ledge]

same error

[umbral zealot]

"permission denied" sounds like, y'know, a permission issue

as if you weren't, like, admin.

[tulip ledge]

well I don't know how to fix

I'm admin on my pc tho

[umbral zealot]

clearly this isn't running under that account then

[earnest phoenix]

i tried removing the flexbox and setting align items to center and putting the first element on position absolute

still doesnt work

[tulip ledge]

how do I make it run under my account then?

[earnest phoenix]

why does it search a port in 0.0.0.0 and not in locahost

[umbral zealot]

I'm not sure

try running this under an admin command prompt

see if it changes anything

[tulip ledge]

The issue is that it's on my D drive and I don't know how to access my D drive through my cmd prompt

[stiff lynx]

It's replit really 24/7?

[earnest phoenix]

the hacker plan is

the free plan, not so much

[umbral zealot]

Literally just write D: in prompt

[earnest phoenix]

and uptimerobot doesnt guarantee 24/7

[tulip ledge]

yeah that didn't work, I had to do cd /d D:

[stiff lynx]

also with uptime robot?

[tulip ledge]

but that doesn't fix it either

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

[umbral zealot]

really? wat

[tulip ledge]

same error

[stiff lynx]

how much does the hacker plan costs?

[earnest phoenix]

5$ a month

a vps is the same price but better

try with SET HOST=localhost && react-scripts start

[earnest phoenix]

anyone?

[tulip ledge]

I got this

but the weird part is that I looked into my ports and 3000 wasn't in use

[stiff lynx]

any yt video for doing this?

[earnest phoenix]

got to task manager

[tulip ledge]

yup

[stiff lynx]

Evie or a guide?

[earnest phoenix]

idk

and check running node procees

[tulip ledge]

this?

[earnest phoenix]

If you don't have any important process running at background terminate them all

[tulip ledge]

didn't fix it

same error and no node processes

[earnest phoenix]

did you kill all proccess?

[tulip ledge]

all node processes yes

[earnest phoenix]

then use an another port maybe 3005

[stiff lynx]

you are doing It with vpn?

[earnest phoenix]

doing what

[umbral zealot]

VPN is not a VPS, those are 2 different things

[earnest phoenix]

6969 is better

[tulip ledge]

ok so this is weird

I just changed it all to 3005

[earnest phoenix]

remove set host=localhost

[tulip ledge]

"electron-react": "concurrently \"SET BROWSER=none && npm start\" \"wait-on http://localhost:3005 && electron .\""

win.loadURL('http://localhost:3005')

Oh that's not gonna work, I tried using a different port before

[stiff lynx]

my bad

Evie you have a Guidor for VPS?

[earnest phoenix]

help needed
I want to align items like this with flexbox:

/--------\           /----------\
| [left] |  [space]  | [center] |
\--------/           \----------/

how do i do that?

[stiff lynx]

this for example?

[jagged plank]

you can do it for free if you get the "express" package and use Uptime-Robot

[umbral zealot]

nope, because each service can be completely different.

[earnest phoenix]

did you try it with align-items: flex-start; align-items: flex-end;?

nope

time to try it and see

[tulip ledge]

so I guess I'm not learning electron and react then

[stiff lynx]

OS system of the VPS?

[earnest phoenix]

Ubuntu 19.04 or 20

[restive furnace]

anything you'd like

[earnest phoenix]

ubuntu is just popular

[stiff lynx]

nothing to change in the code?

[earnest phoenix]

actually no changes are required

since the code is compatible with every os

[stiff lynx]

I've found a guide for Digital Ocean. Anyone that knows It?

[earnest phoenix]

we dont memorize guide names

we memorize anime

[umbral zealot]

inb4 we're expected to index the entirety of google in our brains

Johnny Mnemonic gang.

[boreal iron]

That’s what we have Google for

To know anything Google knows

makes sense?

[dense spire]

is there a way to get the aliases of a certain command?

python

[umbral zealot]

That entirely depends on how you build your command handler

[dense spire]

using @bot.command(name="", aliases=[])

[severe cedar]

So my question is quite long so should I wate for you all to finish?

woops

sent that twice

[umbral zealot]

no, you shouldn't wait

just go right ahead and type your question and send it

[severe cedar]

ok

So I am trying to make a command for my friend and I's rpg bot. Its meant to choose the elemen tyou will use on your journey but for some reason when I run it i get an error. Any idea what's going on?

Code:

    @commands.command()
    async def start(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(
            title = "Welcome to Discordia!",
            description = "To get started please choose a element you wish to use below.\n`❗Warning this can't be changed later❗`",
            colour = discord.Colour.blue()
        )
        embed.set_footer(text=self.bot.user, icon_url=self.bot.user.avatar_url)
        embed.add_field(name='Elements', value="\n🔥 for Fire\n🌊 for Water\n💨 for Air", inline=True)
        
        msg = await ctx.send(embed=embed) 
        reactionFire = await bot.wait_for_reaction('🔥')
        
        await msg.add_reaction("🔥")
        await msg.add_reaction("🌊")
        await msg.add_reaction("💨")
        
        
        def check(self, reaction):
            return user == ctx.author and str(reaction.emoji) == "🔥"
            #return user == msg.author and str(reaction.emoji) == "🌊"
            #return user == msg.author and str(reaction.emoji) == "💨"
        
        try:
            reaction, user = await self.bot.wait_for("reaction_add", timeout=10.0, check=check)
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            await ctx.send("Timed out.")
            return
        if str(msg.reaction.emoji) == "🔥":
            await ctx.send("You choose **Fire**!")
        if str(msg.reaction.emoji) == "🌊":
            await ctx.send("You choose **Water**!")
        if str(msg.reaction.emoji) == "💨":
            await ctx.send("You choose **Air**!")```

Error:
```  File "/home/container/cogs/start.py", line 22, in start
    reactionFire = await bot.wait_for_reaction('🔥')
NameError: name 'bot' is not defined```

I had it on copy and paste

[umbral zealot]

would it not be self.bot

as with 3 lines above

@dense spire

[severe cedar]

this is line 22: reactionFire = await bot.wait_for_reaction('🔥')

[umbral zealot]

yes. look 3 lines above. ```
embed.set_footer(text=self.bot.user, icon_url=self.bot.user.avatar_url)

self.bot ?

seems useful

[topaz echo]

from main import * hah

[severe cedar]

lemme try that

[severe cedar]

    reactionFire = await self.bot.wait_for_reaction('🔥')
AttributeError: 'AutoShardedBot' object has no attribute 'wait_for_reaction'```

[umbral zealot]

ooof

internal sharded bot. ok.

then I have no clue.

[slender thistle]

WAIT_FOR

[umbral zealot]

I don't even code in python. lol.

[slender thistle]

RTFD

PLZ

[severe cedar]

oh

[severe cedar]

?

[slender thistle]

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[severe cedar]

calm down i can't understand what you mean

[slender thistle]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.wait_for

[severe cedar]

no dude explain

[last geyser]

rtfd = read the f*cking docs

[umbral zealot]

oh I didn't even see that.

[severe cedar]

oh

I'm only editing the code

[slender thistle]

Use wait_for. wait_for_reaction is a legacy method

[severe cedar]

OH

[slender thistle]

And as you can tell, it doesn't exist

[severe cedar]

thats what my friend put

guess she was wrong when she put that

[slender thistle]

Yell at your friend

[umbral zealot]

Maybe she wasn't wrong back in the day when she put it

¯_(ツ)_/¯

since it used to be correct

[last geyser]

wf_reaction/message was removed in 1.0.0

so
