Put $ at the end

yw

[fresh verge]

What does this mean?

[earnest phoenix]

something that's going on on the server's side

like status 500 or something

[dire harbor]

[spare badger]

Have any of you tried GitHub copilot yet? https://copilot.github.com/

[cinder patio]

nope

[prime mist]

I'm still on the codespaces waitlist

[brazen wharf]

iots just giving me a wierd arrow what is the probelm

[bronze hollow]

error while voting!

    at HTMLInputElement.<anonymous> (voting.js?13534371517:26)```

[pale vessel]

Try refreshing

[errant flax]

no lmao

[brazen wharf]

im so confused

refreshing didn't work

[solid tide]

Is learning data structures and algorithms nessary

[brazen wharf]

omfg im so retarded

I think i figured it ouit

nope nvm

[marble juniper]

still on wait list pain

[bright thorn]

From let cmd code is unreachable how ?

[cinder patio]

you return a value

so the rest of the code is not executed

[quaint wasp]

how can I check permissions if its not a function?

Gives me this: (node:42) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: message.author.hasPermission is not a function

I got this if(!message.author.hasPermission('MANAGE_CHANNELS')) { message.channel.send('Dude, you must have manage channels perms or else what are you even thinking?') }

[clear marlin]

already got it 😎

[cinder patio]

message.author is a User, users don't have permissions

[quaint wasp]

..

then how

bot?

[pale vessel]

No, member

[quaint wasp]

oh.

So i do
const member = message.author
and then use it or is it like already made?

[clear marlin]

no, you need to use

message.member.hasPermissions```

[cinder patio]

how does your bot have 10k users I dunno

[quaint wasp]

oh so its already made. Thanks

[clear marlin]

yes

[quaint wasp]

same ngl

[clear marlin]

chill lmao

[woeful pike]

small brain: showing server count
big brain: showing total user count

[clear marlin]

[woeful pike]

if you don't understand how a user is different from member it would really help to learn about relational databases and relationship types

actually just learn about relational databases regardless

[rocky hearth]

I tried to install ffmpeg on mac with this brew install ffmpeg
I'm getting this error.

do I need to install python too?

[lusty quest]

yes, idk how its with the Build Tools you need on Windows and Linux

[clear marlin]

build tools is basically the xcode development tools

for anything like ffmpeg needs to have the xcode build tools installed in order to run primary audio functions

[inner fulcrum]

its 2021 and i cant make a ban command NICE

[copper cradle]

congrats

[woeful pike]

I wonder how many discord bots would be around if there were no huge abstraction libraries like discord.py

probably like 2% of the current amount considering how confusing the discord api is

[inner fulcrum]

.js is better

[long crow]

.js with all the any is fun

[narrow fractal]

Oofies

Its fun to use py

JS is interesting

[inner fulcrum]

[brazen stone]

When does the weekend voting start/end or is it based on the users timezone? I know it's 'Friday to Sunday' but I want to display the weekend reward status in my bot

[slender thistle]

Friday 0000 to Sunday 2359, UTC

[prime mist]

Hah yeah. When you start adding up things like the gateway quirks and rate limiting, I think most people would lose interest.

[lusty quest]

it would not attract people like it does right now, but there will be people who would make it anyways

[prime mist]

Yeah I guess bots started as hacks around internal APIs.

Definitely wouldn't be as popular though.

[vivid fulcrum]

that reminds me when selfbots were still allowed

and even endorsed

[earnest phoenix]

Hello

[prime mist]

I have to say though, there is a point where you can over abstract something.

There are a couple of libraries around that have done this :)

[small tangle]

wait rly? 👀

[vivid fulcrum]

yeah

this was way back

like cca 2016

did you have the build tools installed?

[stiff lynx]

git?

[summer torrent]

https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/issues/1796#issuecomment-847866115

[jovial elk]

Anyone else encountered an issue with their bot, that suddenly it works everywhere except one server? it worked before in that server it just randomly stopped, and no error logs or anything wrong shows

Restarting the bot seems to fix the issue it, but is it a known issue or something?

[stiff lynx]

already upgraded to centos 8.3

[earnest phoenix]

It's related to sharding.

[stiff lynx]

/root/novabot/node_modules/@discordjs/opus

idk why I fail everytime installing discord opus

maybe the version is too old

git --version
git version 2.27.0

[slender thistle]

Rust, gtk, Windows
I can't for the life of me figure out how to get this error away no matter what I try to install. I've tried Google many times but nothing helped.

The error occurs when I run cargo run in my project directory.

[jovial elk]

Hey, thanks for answering 🙂

Isnt sharding only a problem that need to be handled when the bot is in a large amount of servers? i think i read somewhere, its 2000 + servers when i need to shard?

[slender thistle]

Discord can sometimes shit itself for no apparent reason

[earnest phoenix]

Yes you are correct

[earnest phoenix]

sometimes Always

[slender thistle]

Pretty much

[jovial elk]

@earnest phoenix @slender thistle i see, thanks for the answers :D, hopefully they fix that issue in 2.0

it only happened 2 times (2 month apart) so far that i know of because people reported to me, and restarting the bot solved it

[earnest phoenix]

np

[slender thistle]

It's not an issue with discord.py

It's an issue with Discord itself

Since Discord refuses to send you gateway events for one server, there's nothing really you can do I believe

[earnest phoenix]

Well they also have a stupid large bot sharding for bots with 150k guilds

[jovial elk]

ah i see :/

[stiff lynx]

why I cant install discord@opus on my vps 😦

I'm gonna cry

npm install @discordjs/opus
npm WARN read-shrinkwrap This version of npm is compatible with lockfileVersion@1, but package-lock.json was generated for lockfileVersion@2. I'll try to do my best with it!

@discordjs/opus@0.5.3 install /root/novabot/node_modules/@discordjs/opus
node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build

[solemn latch]

Looks like your npm install might be a little old/your lockfile is generated using a very old version of npm

[stiff lynx]

help about this?

[solemn latch]

update your install of node.js

[stiff lynx]

It is possibile that this package could not be supported by centos?

[stiff lynx]

idk how to do it on a vps

node --version
v12.22.2

[solemn latch]

what about npm -v

as npm is what handles lockfile stuff

[stiff lynx]

npm -v
6.14.13

[solemn latch]

ah yeah, lockfileversion 2 is after 7.0
npm install -g npm@latest might do the trick?

you may have to re npm i or even npm init after that.

[stiff lynx]

npm -v
7.19.1

I've got already the new version

OMG

[tribal siren]

Hey everyone! Recently I've been learning a lot about Slash Commands and Client API. So I want to make my bot to callback with an embed. However when I try to define my embed in the content section (through a variable). It shows me this error. Can you help me please?

[vivid fulcrum]

the embed isn't supposed to be in the content

[tribal siren]

Oh so like, components?

Or additions?

or whatever is there

[vivid fulcrum]

are you responding to the slash command?

[tribal siren]

well, yea

[vivid fulcrum]

sec

https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/slash-commands#interaction-response-object-interaction-application-command-callback-data-structure

[tribal siren]

i think you provided tthe wrong url

o nvm

[vivid fulcrum]

that's the data obj structure in the response object

[earnest phoenix]

I need set up green discord button when any one press bot send server link

[vivid fulcrum]

stop crossposting your issue

you also need to be more descriptive

[tribal siren]

that's to me or to him?

[vivid fulcrum]

to them

[tribal siren]

oh alright

const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
  .setTitle('Три полоски')
  .setDescription('Адидас кроссовки')
                
client.api.interactions(interaction.id, interaction.token).callback.post({
  data: {
    type: 4,
    data: {
      content: 'Абибас',
      components: [
    {
      type: 1,
      object: embed
    }
      ]
    }
  }
})```

i clearly have brain damage

[vivid fulcrum]

tf

[tribal siren]

i tried doing something

[vivid fulcrum]

all you have to do is follow the structure that's in the docs

for instance, want the message to be tts? add a tts field in the data object and set it to true

[tribal siren]

oh shit

[vivid fulcrum]

same goes for embeds

[tribal siren]

i didn't scroll down lmao

let me try

i found tthis and tried

type: 4,
data: {
  content: 'Абибас',
  components: [embed]
}```

[vivid fulcrum]

stop using components

[tribal siren]

shit.

[vivid fulcrum]

literally read a few lines above that

[tribal siren]

didn't notice

[vivid fulcrum]

yeah

[tribal siren]

ok thanks

[small tangle]

does the permissions works differently on slash commands? because im responding with an embed and although i removed all permissions from my bot, he was still be able to send it?

[pale vessel]

no

Hmm

Maybe check the channel permission overwrites

[dusk narwhal]

hello guys

i am ranveer

i am a bot dev i have a bot

[dusk narwhal]

ik

[rocky hearth]

does anybody has successfully made a music bot with discord.js@dev and @discordjs/voice?

[signal estuary]

Does anybody know why the bot doesnt return at this poin?
Code:

if(+max > +min) return
//max is 4 and min is 2

I also tried

if(Number(max) > Number(min)) return

But it doesnt return. Idk why
I already debugged but couldnt find out

[sudden geyser]

Can you show more of the scope surrounding that block of code?

[quartz kindle]

show more code

[signal estuary]

const errorLog = require('../common/errorLog.js')
exports.run = async (client, msg, args) => {
    console.log("Random")
    try {
        let min = args[0]
        let max = args[1]
        if(!min) return msg.channel.send({content: "``❌ Please mention a min number``"})
        if(!max) return msg.channel.send({content: "``❌ Please mention a max number``"})
        if(isNaN(min)) return msg.channel.send({content:"``❌ Please mention a real number``"})
        if(isNaN(max)) return msg.channel.send({content:"``❌ Please mention a real number``"})
        if(Number(max) > Number(min)) return msg.channel.send({content:"``❌ Max number must be bigger than min number"})
        msg.channel.send({content: "Your number is: " + Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min).toString()})
    } catch (e) {
        errorLog.logError(e)
        msg.channel.send({ content: "``❌ There was an error``" })
    }
}

[quartz kindle]

show the command you ran, and what the bot replied

[signal estuary]

Wait I am soo stupid

if(Number(max) > Number(min)) return msg.channel.send({content:"``:x: Max number must be bigger than min number"})

Look at this xD

If number mx is greater it returns that the max should be bigger than min xD

I am sooo stupid

[quartz kindle]

xd

[autumn rampart]

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

module.exports = {
    name: 'resume',
    description: 'pauses a song/nasheed',

    async execute (client, message, args) {
        if(!message.member.voice.channel)  return message.reply('Pleases be in a vc to use this command.');
        const queue = client.distube.getQueue(message)
        if (!queue) return message.reply("Nothing in the queue!");
        await client.distube.resume(message)
        await message.channel.send("**Resumed Playing!**") 
    }
}

this does not work

[slim heart]

ok i seem to be getting a mass amount of errors from missing permissions for setting a users nickname, however im a bit confused how
i check to make sure my role is higher than the users highest, i check that i Manage Nicknames, and i check if the user is the owner
what else is there

[vivid fulcrum]

nothing

you have faulty logic in one of your checks

[slim heart]

nah im just dumb

to satisfy typings i only checked if db.log existed and it doesnt always

[limber mica]

What is the api refrence to send a message to a specific channel in a specific guild?

[vivid fulcrum]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#create-message

[limber mica]

im talking something like client.guilds.cache.get('GUILD ID HERE').send(embed)

is that it /\

[vivid fulcrum]

then you should've noted you're using a library, you asked for the api reference

[limber mica]

discord.js

[vivid fulcrum]

and no, you can't send a message in a guild, you can send a message in a channel

[limber mica]

so client.guilds.cache.get.(GUILD HERE).channels.cache.get('CHANNEL ID').send(embed)?

[vivid fulcrum]

yup

you have a syntax error in there though

[opal plank]

TS would scream at that tho

cuz .get() might return undefined

[limber mica]

.find()?

[opal plank]

if ur id is wrong or u dont have channel/cache

no, get is fine

but u should add fallbacks

like fetching the channel if its not cached

[limber mica]

i am

[opal plank]

or stopping if a guild isnt available

[limber mica]

im copying the ID directly from firebase so i know its correct

[opal plank]

thats precisely the problem

databases dont update along with discord

so if a channel is deleted

now what?

do u check for that?

[pale vessel]

you can skip getting the guild and use client.channels.cache.get()

[limber mica]

im talking guild id

and the channel is my private server

[opal plank]

if u dont have a channel cached, do you get that?

[vivid fulcrum]

tell the end user they're retarded for deleting the channel

[opal plank]

well yeah, still tho

[opal plank]

thats a route too

[limber mica]

GENIOUS

[opal plank]

but at the end of the day, the errors will come on ur bot

not on the end user

so the only one negatively affected by this is u

specially if u get too many errors

cloudflare might ratelimit u

[limber mica]

cloudflare?

u mean firebase?

[opal plank]

no, cloudflare

if ur bot sends too many errors to discord, it will get ratelimited

[limber mica]

when does cloudflare come in

[opal plank]

u have a quota per day of errors

[limber mica]

ohhh

[opal plank]

cloudflare is proxies for discord, it passes thru it before

[limber mica]

i dont send errors to discord, unless disc.js does

[vivid fulcrum]

can't believe this was in 2019

doesn't feel like it at all

[opal plank]

i feel you

[limber mica]

client.guilds.cache.get('857312635585429504').channels.cache.get('860537456020684830').send(embed2)     
                                                                         ^

[opal plank]

#development message

not like i didnt warn you

u dont have fallbacks nor any checks

Typescript would've yelled at you the moment you typed that

[limber mica]

how do i force the bot to cache it

[pale vessel]

the guild should be cached

That's weird

[opal plank]

either a fat discord.js caching moment, or they copied the wrong id

[limber mica]

is there anything else i can do

[opal plank]

use detritus

like i said, add fallbacks

[pale vessel]

and again, just use client.channels.cache or even better, client.channels.fetch()

[limber mica]

my bot is too big to switch

[opal plank]

it aint

[pale vessel]

You don't need the guild to get the channel

[wheat mesa]

no such thing

[limber mica]

omg i forgot about fetch

[opal plank]

technically you dont need the channel at all

u can just send a rest request

[pale vessel]

you need the ID

that's all

[opal plank]

the id, yes

not the channel itself

[pale vessel]

then client.api.channels[id].messages.post({ data: { embed } }); or something

[limber mica]

so my code should look like this

try{
await client.channels.fetch('860537456020684830').send("Type-script and detritus are bad")
} catch {
console.log(err)
}

[pale vessel]

await the method

and you should handle the error it might throw

[opal plank]

<rest>.raw.post({
  body: {
    content: 'Hello world',
  },
  route: {
     path: 'channels/channelId/messages',
     params: {
       channelId: '123456789012345', 
     }
  }
})```

[limber mica]

i dont like rest

[opal plank]

you need rest

[limber mica]

why

[opal plank]

cuz d.js doesnt add features the day they come

so you're either stuck with using the api docs, or waiting for them to add it

[limber mica]

Dont you dare say deterius does

[opal plank]

it do

[limber mica]

for the love of god

[pale vessel]

Cake adds a feature the day it releases!!!!!!!

[opal plank]

^^^^

before even

[pale vessel]

True doe

[opal plank]

let me check rq

just for reference

[limber mica]

join general so i can show you how much of a b***ch it would be to change it to detritus

wait

i cant stream

lmao

There is more as well

[wheat mesa]

that's not THAT much

[woeful pike]

[limber mica]

There is a lot more

A LOT MORE

[limber mica]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-bully-why-do-you-bully-me-gif-14134661

[wheat mesa]

if you talk to Erwin he'll make you want to use detritus regardless of whether or not it's actually useful to you

[pale vessel]

can you send messages using WS

[limber mica]

@opal plank convince me its worth it

[limber mica]

what is WS

[pale vessel]

ok no

[opal plank]

@pale vessel https://github.com/detritusjs/client/pull/21/commits/30d89d9f799f90d2ce9446fbea44c2ee9571dcae#diff-5e30f8004e4bf79b580854e056dd98ad5ec09f0bff8ac888e81c61e32be9d555R177

[pale vessel]

you need REST

[opal plank]

May 30 is when he added menus along

the dropdowns

[pale vessel]

coolio

[limber mica]

WAIT WAIT WAIT

DROP-DOWNS

[opal plank]

we had dropdowns for almost 2 months now

[limber mica]

hol up

no

[opal plank]

just could use unless you were in a whitelisted guild

[limber mica]

i must resist

no detritus

im too lazy to switch

[pale vessel]

not like you could use it back then since you needed to be whitelisted

[opal plank]

[limber mica]

oh ok

[woeful pike]

to make a single api call or switch a library your codebase is built around and rewrite the whole thing hmm very difficult decision indeed

[limber mica]

oh, no. I dont want that

[opal plank]

[limber mica]

Why cant all functions just by default be async

[opal plank]

you'd love deno

doesnt deno wrap everything in async?

top level await

[limber mica]

i have not been making discord bots long

I do minecraft server setups

For very cheap prices and i can beat the competitors

Sorry just had to plug myself there

Is there ANY WAY to make a switch statement async?

[opal plank]

what

[pale vessel]

Wrap it in an async function

[vivid fulcrum]

async switch(var) {
  await case case1:
    break;
} 

/s

[opal plank]

massive brain

[limber mica]

My router just comitted die

[limber mica]

Cant do that

[vivid fulcrum]

yes you can

[opal plank]

thats what the /s stands for

[limber mica]

; expected

[vivid fulcrum]

red means it worked

[wheat mesa]

await async switch(var) {
  async () => {
     await case case1:
      await break;
}
await return

[vivid fulcrum]

callback hell v2

[wheat mesa]

more async please!

[limber mica]

Lol

[wheat mesa]

await swapBotToDetritus();

[limber mica]

My wifo card just fried itself after i installed detritus

Its so bad it broke my pc

[opal plank]

async switch(true) {
  await case true: 
      await var.forEach((any) => {    
         if(any === 'case1'){};    
         if(any === 'case2'){};
         if(any === 'case3'){};    
         if(any === 'case4'){};    
      })
    break;
} ```
i improved ur code @vivid fulcrum

how to properly use switches

I need to swap

[untold token]

Taurine

[lusty quest]

doesnt it already support the dropdown stuff?

[untold token]

14.3

[wheat mesa]

What good is a library if no one supports it by using it!

Might as well

[limber mica]

Thx

[opal plank]

it do

[opal plank]

thats what ComponentSelectMenu is for

[woeful pike]

bro ur code is bad because you're not even switches broo

[untold token]

Hi xet

[woeful pike]

hello

[opal plank]

thats the point 4head

using if/else on a switch

could've await'ed the rest tho, can never have enough awaits

[woeful pike]

yandere dev moment. Use switch = codebase immediately fixed

[earnest phoenix]

any other website

not officeal

[opal plank]

exactly

[vivid fulcrum]

well, you asked for the discord website

[earnest phoenix]

i need soem thing

[opal plank]

ditch forEach and use for...of = 127% performance increase

[untold token]

yandere dev

[earnest phoenix]

i ask any discord button website

[opal plank]

what?

like discord-buttons package?

or u want an example of someone using buttons?

i dont get it, cry sent u what u asked for

a discord button website, technically

does he mean widgets?

like guild widgets/badges?

so many questions

cannot compute, shutting down

[wheat mesa]

I mean, last night he was spamming the same error message over and over

So we need more information

[near stratus]

Is that your face in bg ?

[wheat mesa]

Linus 😉

[untold token]

Yes

[limber mica]

Sorry erwin

[wheat mesa]

What's wrong with learning a little ts!

[limber mica]

I hate TS with my heart and soul

it is so frustrating and confusing

[wheat mesa]

...have you used it?

[limber mica]

Yes

And it sucked

[wheat mesa]

Personally I haven't used it

[opal plank]

what about it?

[wheat mesa]

Just looks like strongly typed js

personally I like that idea

[opal plank]

u can use js, i told you multiple times

[limber mica]

The documentation says otherwise

[opal plank]

its like eating a cake, vs eating a cake with confetti , icing, and cherry ontop
its still cake

bad example, but u get the idea

[lusty quest]

you just used cake bcs of cake right?

[opal plank]

its just that we, who use typescript, get a lot more neat shit ontop

[opal plank]

maybe

[wheat mesa]

Learning a strongly typed language is also never a bad thing

[opal plank]

if u ever plan to switch to another language, knowing how strong typed objects/varaibles work will greatly reduce the amount of things u need to learn

@limber mica but the point stands, u dont need ts to use detritus

[lusty quest]

i dont like TS, but use it to give it a try, for now i would still prefer js over TS bcs js usually just works and dont get caught on stupid errors that are only there for the compiler

[vivid fulcrum]

typescript catches type errors you can fix in 2 minutes instead of struggling for 2 hours to fix a type error in production js code

[opal plank]

^^^^

there IS a bit of intial investment

but it pays off

that investment is in form of more code(aka u need to type your objects/variables) and some rare times, fighting with typescript toget shit to work

[vivid fulcrum]

plus ts is just prettier to look at

[opal plank]

but it saves u from having to wait days until eventually someone randomly stumbles upon a bug

[wheat mesa]

I love the look of ts

[opal plank]

ts is bae

[woeful pike]

I mean that still happens but it's more rare with ts

[opal plank]

[wheat mesa]

Just so much more structured

[opal plank]

exactly

[woeful pike]

my blog is in js cuz there's 0 important business logic but for everything else, ts good

[opal plank]

xet, u might be able to gimme a hand on what i was struggling with yesterday

with declarations

[vivid fulcrum]

not only this, but it's basically early access to es next features

[opal plank]

this basically

[vivid fulcrum]

very nice to work with

[limber mica]

bruh i cant add async to a switch case

[opal plank]

some ts features actually got yoinked into node

[wheat mesa]

Oh no...

[opal plank]

a switch isnt async

the code u putting in it is

async only works for promises

[limber mica]

How do i make the code async then, so that i can use await

oh

[opal plank]

its like saying my console log is async

like what?

not how it works

but either way

make a function

and call ti after

[limber mica]

its fine i got it working

[woeful pike]

seems like a classic case of classes bad

[opal plank]

console.log(hi);
continueStuff();


async function continueStuff() {
  switch(a) {
    case 'a': await console.log(await 'hi');  
  }
}

stupid example, but u get the point

[opal plank]

[limber mica]

N:\Desktop\ColdRP bot\commands\requestaccess.js:62
                            client.channels.fetch('860537456020684830').send(embed2)

TypeError: client.channels.fetch(...).send is not a function

[opal plank]

lost a tuff of hair doing that

[opal plank]

fetch() is a promise

another issue where ts would tell you

[limber mica]

stop with TS please

[opal plank]

now u starting to see our glory

[limber mica]

That does not work either ;-;

im dying

[opal plank]

that DOES work

you wrap ur async code inside a function

[limber mica]

{
"resource": "/N:/Desktop/ColdRP bot/commands/requestaccess.js",
"owner": "typescript",
"code": "1359",
"severity": 8,
"message": "Identifier expected. 'switch' is a reserved word that cannot be used here.",
"source": "ts",
"startLineNumber": 42,
"startColumn": 32,
"endLineNumber": 42,
"endColumn": 38
}

[opal plank]

and call ir right after

show what u got rn

like, full context

[limber mica]

wait

hold on

[opal plank]

it says the exact line

"startLineNumber": 42,
"startColumn": 32,
"endLineNumber": 42,
"endColumn": 38

[limber mica]

hold on

[opal plank]

"resource": "/N:/Desktop/ColdRP bot/commands/requestaccess.js", and where it happened

[limber mica]

HOLD ON

[opal plank]

[limber mica]

so ive got progress

[opal plank]

can u think of a way to just "make that work"?

cuz legit, changing classes at this point will be a pain

[limber mica]

So its not erroring but the switch statement is not working with the reaction collector

[opal plank]

thats just a small example, but changing the structure from classes will legit require a chuky rewrite

[limber mica]

So when i react it does nothing

[opal plank]

another great thing from vsc, a debugger

[woeful pike]

I don't really understand what you're trying to do. Update the type signature of a constructor or what?

[opal plank]

see whats going on when you click ona button

[opal plank]

that and the types

the end-goal is have it so whenever the library emits a <Message>, it has what i added onto the intial class

that code does the trick

it transpiles AND compiles file

however VSC does not like it one bit

and its one of those instances where ts-ignore just doesnt rid of the error

[limber mica]

https://pastebin.com/ZzJerfma

Im dying

Like, really bad

My collector is not working

wait

ok, so i know why my first thing was not working

but im confused now

[near stratus]

umm dude

wtf

[limber mica]

?

[near stratus]

Just wrapping the code in async function won't make it magically work

You have to call the function later

[limber mica]

So how would i go about that?

[opal plank]

thats going to be on chonky gif

@woeful pike hopefully its visible enough

[near stratus]

like

collector.on('collect', (r, u) => {
    async function Blyat(){
        //Put your shit here
    }
    Blyat()
})

[wheat mesa]

[opal plank]

open in browser

i just opened it, looks fine

[wheat mesa]

On mobile rn, that’s probably why

[opal plank]

even ts-ignore doesnt rid that

but its compiles just fine

and if i switch to implements, the it no longer has property

[digital ibex]

Hi, I have: ```js
function sendData(e) {
e.preventDefault();

              const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
              xhr.open('POST', '/guilds/<%- id %>/automod');
              xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-type', 'application/json');
              
              const ignoredChannel = document.getElementById('ignoredChannel').value;
              const ignoredRole = document.getElementById('ignoredRole').value;
              const blacklistedWord = document.getElementById('add-word').value
              const automodModule = document.getElementById('automod-module').value
              const ignoreMod = document.getElementById('ignore-mod').value
              let wordsInDiv = '1';
              let channelsInDiv = '1';
              let rolesInDiv = '1';

              if (document.getElementsByClassName('blacklistedWord').value !== '1') wordsInDiv = document.getElementsByClassName('blacklistedWord').value;
              if (document.getElementsByClassName('ignoredChannels').value !== '1') channelsInDiv = document.getElementsByClassName('ignoredChannels').value;
              if (document.getElementsByClassName('ignoredRoles').value !== '1') rolesInDiv = document.getElementsByClassName('ignoredRoles').value
              
              const data = { data here }

              xhr.send(JSON.stringify(data));
           }

[opal plank]

cuz its not a class, technically

[vivid fulcrum]

why are you not using the browser fetch api

xhr is ancient

[digital ibex]

and wheneer "wordsInDiv" is sent, the page refreshes for some reason, any idea?

ik

[sudden geyser]

codecademy still trying to teach xmlhttprequest

[vivid fulcrum]

it's literally older than me

[digital ibex]

u kno y the page is refreshin tho?

[vivid fulcrum]

also

you should probably switch to a SPA for something like this

you seem to have a lot of states you need to manage

[limber mica]

Still dont work and im dying

[digital ibex]

oh

but u kno whas goin on wid it

?

[near stratus]

what does it show (in console) ?

[limber mica]

No error, its just not calling the function

In the .then statement it is triggering and firing the console.log statement but not the function

[near stratus]

is it even calling the collector.on('collect') ?

[limber mica]

collector.on("collect", (reaction, user) => {

Yes

[wheat mesa]

...are you sure?

[limber mica]

The second one popped up in the console

[wheat mesa]

Ok, just making sure

[earnest phoenix]

what probleam

[limber mica]

maybe down, or wrong website

My function is also grayed out

[wheat mesa]

Then it’s not being called

[earnest phoenix]

i take from npm website

[near stratus]

I don't know why the code isn't breaking
but it should break
If I was the interpreter / Compiler I'd surely break
When you did client.channels.fetch('860537456020684830').send(embed2)
From no direction this should work

IDK why it isn't showing errors

But it should

cuz client.channels.fetch('860537456020684830') will return a Promise

and you can't .send to a promise

until it's resolved

[limber mica]

"'stroke' is declared but its value is never read"

[near stratus]

and you didn't wait to get resolved

[wheat mesa]

Because you didn't call the function?

[limber mica]

But i did

[near stratus]

bruh
you care for warnings ?
the whole code is breaking apart

also what is waffle ?

[limber mica]

he is a waffle

[wheat mesa]

Wait a second...

[near stratus]

......

nvm

[near stratus]

I meant what is stroke ?

[limber mica]

the function, because im having a stroke

[near stratus]

you know what leave async await
use .then()
it also works almost the same way

[clear marlin]

Guys, angular vs react

[wheat mesa]

react

don't even ask that question

[clear marlin]

and why

[near stratus]

use this

client.channels.fetch('860537456020684830').then(channel => { 
    channel.send('Whatever')
})

[near stratus]

react duh

[vivid fulcrum]

react

[clear marlin]

but like why

[near stratus]

Cuz I can't use angular
I tried to learn and it sucks

[clear marlin]

lmao

and what's your thoughts on vuejs

[vivid fulcrum]

vue is definitely the most simplistic

[clear marlin]

vue > react or no?

[near stratus]

In some case better than react
but not overall better

[clear marlin]

hmm,

[vivid fulcrum]

want x? do x and it works exactly like you want it to

while in angular and react you need to do y and z in order to achieve x

[clear marlin]

alright well, thanks!

[vivid fulcrum]

vue is very good but i still prefer react

[limber mica]

IT WORKS

[eternal elbow]

But** await** better** then()**

[limber mica]

Thank you, im not good with arrow functions so i did not think of that

[near stratus]

You can't use await in base level

[eternal elbow]

Why

[near stratus]

cuz it's node.js not deno

[clear marlin]

alright, deal. I'm using react

[near stratus]

You have to put await inside a async function

[eternal elbow]

I also use React and it's really good.

[clear marlin]

btw, then() also helps you with error catching in a more precise manner

[vivid fulcrum]

oh also, some really good news about react 18

they're adding automatic state batching

[eternal elbow]

But using then() creates inception

[vivid fulcrum]

so when you need to update 2 or more states, you won't spam re-renders (in hooks ofc)

[clear marlin]

like

import(`file.txt`).then(data=>{
}).catch(err=>{
console.log(err);})

Rather than

const fileData = await import(`file.txt`);

but then, there's a problem

you can't use, data outside of the .then() statement

whereas you could use fileData anywhere in the program

[eternal elbow]

Yes, that's the downside.

[near stratus]

react is a gangsta until redux enters the room

[vivid fulcrum]

lol redux 🤡

[near stratus]

tbh I never saw any react tutorial not ending with redux

[vivid fulcrum]

because up until recently it was really the only decent choice for global state management

now we have react context and recoiljs

[near stratus]

wait we do ?

*goes googling

[vivid fulcrum]

react context is native to react and most of what redux does can be replaced with react context

if you still need global state management, use recoil

it's so much more user friendly and simplistic

recoil is also designed by facebook themselves

https://github.com/facebookexperimental/Recoil

[eternal elbow]

I don't know exactly how good it is but for me "mern" is the best

There is an unrelated problem, if I remember correctly, there was a function called dispatcher.seek(ms) in v11, what happened to it?

[sudden geyser]

discord or top.gg

[bleak ingot]

Top.gg

[earnest phoenix]

Not related to this channel. You can ask in #support

[proud plover]

any .js user ?

if yes dm me

[sudden geyser]

Just ask your question pls

[proud plover]

ahh its not a question its just that i want help in a command

[sudden geyser]

Does it involve fixing an issue (e.g. a command not working as expected)?

[proud plover]

no

its nothing like that

[bleak ingot]

sorry

[coarse topaz]

Hey there, I've a question
Is it possible to mass-clear reactions from all the messages in one channel in discord.js? If so, how?
Thanks

(Please ping me when responding)

[lyric mountain]

technically yes

plausible? no definitely not

[coarse topaz]

Why tho

[lyric mountain]

because ratelimit exists

you're going to hit it constantly when clearing reactions of a whole channel

[coarse topaz]

What about making a loop that'd consist on:

1. Check if there's a message
2. Check if the message has reactions
3. If it does, clear them all. If not, pass to the next message
   And loop it until there're no more messages to check in the specified channel

Or does rate limit still exist in that case?

[lyric mountain]

it does

because
A - You're still fetching messages
B - You're still clearing reactions

everything regarding the api has ratelimit

[tulip ledge]

Technically you could make an interval loop eg 1 second and you'd be ratelimit free, it will be alot slower tho

[lyric mountain]

also, iirc, you can only fetch messages up to past 7 days

[tulip ledge]

14 days I think

[lyric mountain]

make "alot slower" bold

[tulip ledge]

I mean

u could do the math

how many actions u have to do a second and then check the ratelimit

and set the interval so u just about don't hit the ratelimit

[graceful shore]

how do i check a channels topic

[pale vessel]

The topic property...?

[wheat mesa]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[graceful shore]

like how can i check the message channels topic (this bit)

[coarse topaz]

Oh uh then it's kinda impossible I think? Those channels don't have more than +30 messages for sure, but some of them are really old...
Isn't there a way I can clear reactions in an automatized way? Those're vote channels, where people vote for their favorite stuff by reacting to the messages...

[graceful shore]

@pale vessel

[cinder patio]

TextChannel#topic

[tulip ledge]

dont think so, unless u just clone the channel but you'll lose all messages

[modest crane]

actually there's no limit

[tulip ledge]

pretty sure there is no?

[modest crane]

the 14 days limit is for deleting messages

[tulip ledge]

oh yeah

but u sure it's not for fetching?

[modest crane]

yup

[coarse topaz]

Oh then the loop idea could work?

[cinder patio]

If the channel has only 30 messages then you should be able to fetch them all at once and iterate through them yeah

[pliant copper]

How to replace characters from JSON file in python? I tried this but doesn't work

list = json_data["players"]["list"]
list = list.replace("[", "")
list = list.replace("]", "")
list = list.replace("'", "`") 

[coarse topaz]

Woah that's amazing! Thanks!

[woeful pike]

you're doing something very wrong. Are you trying to parse json?

[pliant copper]

Ye

[woeful pike]

ur variable is already a list

also don't name things list

[pliant copper]

I want to remove these [ ] '

[woeful pike]

that's already a list you need to loop through them and format the names accordingly

[pliant copper]

The list is not fixed so idk how to do it

[woeful pike]

string.join probably

[pliant copper]

I get the info from a website in json so it has a layout

[woeful pike]

right, look up string.join

[brave pulsar]

@pliant copper

do you still need help?

what is the end goal

[pliant copper]

Ye, well I wanted to try make a bot which shows mcserver status but I have no idea how to remove these [ ] ' from players list

[brave pulsar]

ok so

its a list

[lyric mountain]

those [] don't exist at all

[brave pulsar]

and

so

@pliant copper

all you have to do is

[pliant copper]

KuuHaKu ^

[brave pulsar]

", ".join(list)

and this will join the list

making it an str

and put a , in between each value

so py food = ['apples, 'pears', 'potatoes'] print(food)
this here ^ prints ['apples, 'pears', 'potatoes']

food = ['apples, 'pears', 'potatoes']
print(", ".join(food))```
this here ^ prints `apples, pears, potatoes`

is that what you want?

there are actually many methods

you can also do food[0:len(food)]

[earnest phoenix]

Yikes, that's just gonna copy the list

[brave pulsar]

yeah i realised

[earnest phoenix]

food[:] >>

[brave pulsar]

ignore the len part

[pliant copper]

Yes, and not to be rude but I'm new to coding so can you add that to this?

List = json_data["players]["list"]

The one you send prints it but I wanna use it in embed

As a value

[brave pulsar]

uh

embed = discord.Embed(title="Players online", description=f'**Players:** {", ".join(List)}')

[pliant copper]

Tysm it works

[lyric mountain]

dont use list as name

[earnest phoenix]

I mean, they don't

[lyric mountain]

oh, python is case-sensitive?

[earnest phoenix]

always has been

[pliant copper]

.

@Fred123#7205

[earnest phoenix]

You can't do "{""}" but you can do "{''}"

f"{""}" to be exact, since it's gonna get concatenated anyway

[pliant copper]

I'm gonna add another field then

[earnest phoenix]

It's not gonna fix anything

f"{", ".join(...)}" is interpereted as f"{" and ".join(...)}". Use single quote so that the string continues

Also, why are you still shadowing built-in list?

[graceful shore]

can someone help?
my bot keeps crashing when someone sends a image with no message

if (!message.channel.name.includes("_rem")){
const channel = message.member.guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === "uwulog");
if(channel && message.content && !message.attachments.first()){

const botlog = new Discord.MessageEmbed();
botlog.setTitle(`Log`);
botlog.setColor('#ae00ff')
botlog.addField("#"+message.channel.name + " < User ID:" + message.member.id + "> " + message.member.user.tag + ":⠀" + message.content + "⠀", "⠀");

channel.send(botlog).catch(()=>{ channel.send("Could not send log message")});
}
}

i have no idea what is causing it

[stiff lynx]

pls, help with this

I'm trying to install discord opus on my vps

[sudden geyser]

so make wasn't found

[graceful shore]

can u help me

im so confused

[mental furnace]

you dont have the tools to compile packages

distro?

@graceful shore

[graceful shore]

what?

[mental furnace]

you need to install the compiling tool

[graceful shore]

... why?

[mental furnace]

aka: make

because a normal user normally doesnt have to compile anything

so they dont come bundled

[graceful shore]

im not trying to compile anything

im trying to fix and embed error

[mental furnace]

you are

[graceful shore]

...

[mental furnace]

wait

[graceful shore]

ur looking at the other guys question

[mental furnace]

I WAS LOOKING AT THE WRONG MESSAGE

[graceful shore]

well done XD

[mental furnace]

replace js channel.send(botlog).catch(()=>{ channel.send("Could not send log message")}); with js channel.send(botlog).catch(e=>{ channel.send("Could not send log message\n> " + e.message)});

it should give you some info on whats wrong

[graceful shore]

thats the error

[wheat mesa]

The first parameter of channel.send does not take an embed!

[mental furnace]

thats also not the error i think

[wheat mesa]

Try channel.send({ embed: botlog })

[wheat mesa]

Yeah, might not be, but it'll still cause problems in some cases

[graceful shore]

yup

[mental furnace]

you cant just have whitespaces

also isnt the third parameter a bool?

[graceful shore]

it works but it only crashes if the message content is only an attachment

[digital ibex]

Hi, for some reason im gettin this error: TypeError: Index is not a contructor

[graceful shore]

see

[digital ibex]

and i dont know why, when Index is a class

[mental furnace]

wait there ISNT a third parameter

what the fuck am i looking at

[wheat mesa]

Can you send your code for us?

[digital ibex]

ye

[mental furnace]

field name - "#"+message.channel.name + " < User ID:" + message.member.id + "> " + message.member.user.tag + ":⠀" + message.content + "⠀"
field val - "⠀"

[graceful shore]

yes

probably didnt need the last + "⠀" in field name but oh well

[digital ibex]

i will jst say discord.js is broken and leave

i mean i might just ping erwin to receive a 10 paragraphs of messages saying how detritus is better

but it REALLY looks like a d.js issue

[graceful shore]

i had it working before in a older version of my code

[digital ibex]

u can also view https://github.com/OfficiallyLost/Random-Generator/blob/da75cd239290044285b2f6c303985931fbfbdd6f/src/lib/index.js#L6 and https://github.com/OfficiallyLost/Random-Generator/blob/master/index.js

@wheat mesa ^

https://pastebin.com @graceful shore ?

[mental furnace]

im ok with codeblocks

just

WHY is your code flat

[graceful shore]

wdym why is my code flat

[mental furnace]

where indentation

[graceful shore]

oh

[wheat mesa]

smile to hide the pain 🥲

[slender thistle]

If you used python you wouldn't have this problem

[digital ibex]

300 lines wtf

[mental furnace]

[graceful shore]

i may use notepad instead of visual studio cuz i cant wait 3 seconds for it to load dont kill me

[mental furnace]

YOU USE VISUAL STUDIO

[digital ibex]

thats not something u wanna brag about but ok

lol

[mental furnace]

FOR JAVASCRIPT

[wheat mesa]

I prefer vsc for js stuff

But vs for c# stuff

[mental furnace]

i shouldnt have come here

[graceful shore]

ok ill open visual studio dont kill me XD

[slender thistle]

Use VSC instead

[mental furnace]

first its a guy who doesnt even have make

[digital ibex]

waffle, any idea on my issue?

[mental furnace]

and then some genius who uses notepad

[sudden geyser]

what about emacs

[mental furnace]

never used it

[graceful shore]

saves the time of loading visual studio lol

[slender thistle]

VS is preferred for stronger stuff like C languages

[wheat mesa]

Looking through it rn

[mental furnace]

VSCode

no loading time

intellisense

DEBUGGING

[graceful shore]

im literally using that

im using vscode now

happy?

[mental furnace]

Visual Studio != VSCode

[digital ibex]

oh im sorry @wheat mesa i forgot to push my updated code... :/

[slender thistle]

Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code ain't the same

[mental furnace]

way too different

[wheat mesa]

module.exprts is a problem probably. (unless that's a thing, never seen it written like that before)

[digital ibex]

ik ik :///

[mental furnace]

VS and VSC is like how C is JavaScript

[wheat mesa]

oh okay

[digital ibex]

i forgot to push the code shit

[graceful shore]

ok im using vscode

[mental furnace]

good for you

hope you opened the folder instead of the single file you are editing

[wheat mesa]

Your problem is that Index is not a class name

Your class is titled RandomGenerator

Your file is named index.js

But you cannot create an object of your index.js file, you need to create an object of the RandomGenerator class

[digital ibex]

its old code

[graceful shore]

welp

[digital ibex]

im jus pushin the new code

one sec

[graceful shore]

i opened the folder

[digital ibex]

okay so @wheat mesa its:
https://github.com/OfficiallyLost/Random-Generator/blob/master/index.js
and
https://github.com/OfficiallyLost/Random-Generator/blob/7db56f1227a334ea0a0e734209d440e0014d2a7b/src/lib/index.js#L6

[graceful shore]

wtf

im literally using if(message.attachments.size >= 1) return; and it still crashes

[digital ibex]

btw, idk what ur problem is bracket, but the if (channel && message.content) is redundant since it'll always be true

jus inefficient to have that there

[graceful shore]

i removed it

[digital ibex]

oh wait im sorry

[wheat mesa]

Testing some stuff rq, I'll help in a sec

[digital ibex]

i didnt fully read it, u may need it

[graceful shore]

if(!message.content) return;
if(message.content.length  >= 1){
if (!message.channel.name.includes("_rem")){
const channel = message.member.guild.channels.cache.find(channel => channel.name === "uwulog");
if(channel){

const botlog = new Discord.MessageEmbed();
botlog.setTitle(`Log`);
botlog.setColor('#ae00ff')
botlog.addField("#"+message.channel.name + " < User ID:" + message.member.id + "> " + message.member.user.tag + ":⠀" + message.content, "⠀");

channel.send(botlog).catch(()=>{ channel.send("Could not send log message")});
}
}
}

even this doesnt work

[digital ibex]

whats not workin

[graceful shore]

when i post a image only

it still tries to log it

and gives a error

[digital ibex]

just

im pretty sure u have to add something to the value of the embed field

[graceful shore]

i did that

[digital ibex]

just google whitespace and copy it out or something

[graceful shore]

its a invisible character

[digital ibex]

ye

ih

oh

use the unicode

[graceful shore]

i did that

idk why this isnt working

[digital ibex]

well show line 898 O_O in bot.js

[digital ibex]

use the unicode

u just copied out a space

for no reason then

[graceful shore]

the value is a invisible character that isnt a space

[digital ibex]

try the unicode

[graceful shore]

i am

[digital ibex]

thats not a unicode

[graceful shore]

this is part of working code as well

[digital ibex]

that is the loc which is causing the error

[graceful shore]

well no

this is the code that is causing the error

[wheat mesa]

@digital ibex ```js
module.exports = class RandomGenerator {
// Code stuff
constructor() {
// Does stuff
}

TestFunc() {
    return console.log("Works")
}

}

[digital ibex]

what line is that?

[wheat mesa]

const Index = require("./index.js")

const Myobj = new Index()

Myobj.TestFunc()

[digital ibex]

kk ty waffle

[digital ibex]

my head is hurting

please

u got ur code here

[wheat mesa]

Yet another steam scammer

[digital ibex]

// message.content = '';

message.channel.send(message.content) // Error: Cannot send empty message

if (!message.content) {
// ...
message.channel.send(message.content) // Will not send 
}

u understand whats goin on here

ur checking if message.content is actually like

a thing

AFTER you send the message

so you need to check before you send it

[wheat mesa]

Also why do you have that many lines in one file!

[digital ibex]

also, please please please i beg u rewrite ur bot

yes

[wheat mesa]

I recommend setting up command and event handlers

https://discordjs.guide/command-handling/

[graceful shore]

you was right

it was that code giving errors

i deleted it and tested and no errors

[digital ibex]

#development message
refer to this then

[graceful shore]

ima move the code cuz i know warning works before

[digital ibex]

moving the code isnt going to change anything

all you need to do is move one line

and error fixed

no error if u wanna say that

btw @wheat mesa

were u getting the errors when u first cloned

?

[wheat mesa]

I didn't clone, I just set up a small test project

[digital ibex]

yeah cuz im still getting the error

idk whats goin on

[wheat mesa]

Line 87 of this file https://github.com/OfficiallyLost/Random-Generator/blob/7db56f1227a334ea0a0e734209d440e0014d2a7b/src/lib/index.js#L6

That's the problem

[digital ibex]

it was workin before but i changed it to module.exports = class .....

[wheat mesa]

Instead of doing js module.exports = RandomGenerator do ```js
module.exports = class RandomGenerator {
// Class code here
}

[digital ibex]

yeah i done that

btw that doesnt change anything

i done it but still no worky

[wheat mesa]

Did you save it before running? Because whenever I change my test setup to this ```js
class RandomGenerator {
// Code stuff
constructor() {
// Does stuff
}

TestFunc() {
    return console.log("Works")
}

}

module.exports = RandomGenerator;

[digital ibex]

Index is just an empty obj for some reason

[digital ibex]

yeah, would u be able to clone / fork my project and see whats goin on

?

[wheat mesa]

Yeah, hold on

[eternal osprey]

hey

i was having a question

I am constantly generating a new folder in js

that contais a few lines

they all have the same name and then delete it.

How do i send the contents directly into an excel file?
