i mean i can check for length, but if i pass in a properly formatted id, but it doesnt belong to a user or the user isnt in the server it should still fail

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:18 PM

#

@terse finch are you checking if the id passed is the id of a member in the guild

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:18 PM

#

ill checkout the api for discord.id thanks

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:18 PM

#

earnest phoenix <@109314596484939776> are you checking if the id passed is the id of a member in...

yes

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:18 PM

#

well

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:19 PM

#

basically !command <ID> <MESSAGE>

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:19 PM

#

message.guild.members.cache.some(member => member.id === id);

vivid fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 5:19 PM

#

check if input string is all numbers and 17-20 characters long -> look up your user cache for that id -> if not found, make a REST request, if that returned 404 a user with that id doesn't exist

#

you can get users globally via REST

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:19 PM

#

cool good to know

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

they only want to see if the member exists in the guild

vivid fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

oh

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

guild member cache is enough for that

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

it would be useful later on if they just exist

vivid fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

you can still use REST

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

but for right now just existing in the guild is what i need

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

Use collection.some

vivid fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

earnest phoenix guild member cache is enough for that

i don't think so, in guilds especially you probably won't have all members cached

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

It takes a test function and returns true if any of the collection items passed the test

terse finch Jul 26, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

ill keep both options in mind when i try it out

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

terse finch i mean i can check for length, but if i pass in a properly formatted id, but it ...

Get user input
Test it against the regex or check it's length
Check if the ID belongs to a user from the guild by fetching them from the guild by <Guild>.members.fetch() and catching them if it doesn't exist as you're using discord.js
Then do whatever

it's fine

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:21 PM

Remember that the smallest ID length exposed to the API is 17 characters, the longest one being 18 characters

wtf

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

#

it keeps throwing this error

#

and on the server i have given grafana user the ownership of the dir

#

;-;

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

the file is in /root

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

yeah

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

maybe that's the problem

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

it needs /root/

#

if i remove root it says it cant find the dir

#

it needs an absolute path

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

literally
move the dir to / instead of /root

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

No file found at: '/izzi/izzi-bot/json.sqlite'

#

No file found at: '/izzi/izzi-bot/'

#

i tried this also

#

i tried ~/ also

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

the izzi folder is inside root that's why it cant find it...

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

but it has the ownerhsip?

#

so i have to move to /home path?

remove perms for anyone to send messages there

#

Discord has private channels for that

#

Get onto a computer and goto the channel settings

#

In permissions you can toggle private channel mode

#

Only people/roles you allow can even see the channel

earnest phoenix >Get user input >Test it against the regex or check it's length >Check if the ID...

so i fetched the guild members, now do i just run collectionOBJ.find(member => member.id === PassedInID)?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 6:03 PM

#

terse finch so i fetched the guild members, now do i just run `collectionOBJ.find(member => ...

You can also just do <Collection>.get(<ID>)

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:30 PM

#

so umm

#

code

#

xd

#

where you at brother

#

can i store multiple columns with quick.db? currently everything is just dumped at json

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:32 PM

#

you're storing json in quickdb?

earnest phoenix Jul 26, 2021, 6:39 PM

#

does it ever happen you write a big project then you forget yourself hoe the fuck you made it

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:42 PM

#

resumed an old project?

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:44 PM

#

true, happens

#

it basucally only has 2 props

#

id and data

#

qdb

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

 id | data
-----------
  0 | aaa
  1 | bbb
  2 | ccc

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

like this?

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

so anything stored in db it stores json or string

#

yah

#

i wanted more of id | col1 | col2

#

from qdb

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

bruh

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

wondering if that's possible

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

not only possible, but the way it should be happening

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

yeah

#

weird qdb

#

it only has id and data

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

one doesn't simply use sql to store a single json column

#

that's illegal

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

😂

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

my opinion? yeet qdb and move to an actual sql wrapper

#

I can't say how much performance and resources you're losing with that

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:48 PM

#

yeah just tried qdb because it was lightweight

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:48 PM

#

actually, it's sqlite which is lightweight

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:48 PM

#

also straight forward methods for what i was looking for

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:49 PM

#

sqlite is the lightest you can get and retain major sql features

#

tbf, almost all big tools use sqlite for settings storage

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:49 PM

#

ig

#

the reason i dont want to use sequelize is that

#

im not using any of the features it provides

#

just want a basic set and fetch

#

which qdb was offering

#

lel

#

but this is just dumb

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

it's better having more than needed than having less

#

also let you ever move on to a larger database like postgres sequelize allows seamless transition

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:51 PM

#

ik, i already use postgres

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:51 PM

#

what wrapper you use?

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:51 PM

#

knex and the pg-client itself for faster query

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

pogres

#

sorry had to

#

carry on

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

ayy my man

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

faster query is subjective

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

yeah

#

my queries are well optimized tho

#

to some level

#

still need more

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

go with sequelize

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

optimzation

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

thats what they all say

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

it can work for both databases you use

#

so less packages

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:52 PM

#

sequelize doesn't exactly optimise your queries very well but you know

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:53 PM

#

better than using a lib that stores all table data in a json field

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:54 PM

#

crystal wigeon

look what they did to my boy

#

sqlite is suffering

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:55 PM

#

is there anything better than qdb? mariadb?

#

😂

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:55 PM

#

mariadb is a database

#

not a lib

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:55 PM

#

lyric mountain better than using a lib that stores all table data in a json field

can't disagree on that

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:55 PM

#

ah

#

aight, i'll switch to seq

#

thanq for da wae

#

lets go spit on qdb

#

jk

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

I wonder how much bots use qdb

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

no that's a terrible joke

#

lets actually do it

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

I can only imagine how disgusting managing a big db with that is

#

let alone backup restores

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

its more like someone trolled us

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

i used it once for a bot where i needed a quick database with no complex queries

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

big time

#

image suggesting qdb to newbie

#

and later he go ins shock

#

after finding out how the data must atually be stored

#

in db

#

lol

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 6:57 PM

#

like, you lose so many cool sql features that you're better off going straight to nosql

#

what is sql without inner joins and custom queries

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

lol imagine using joins

crystal wigeon Jul 26, 2021, 7:07 PM

#

imagine joining joins with qdb

#

:ayawoke:

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:09 PM

#

INNER JOIN other_table ot ON ot.data = t.data

#

at that moment, sql dies

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 7:15 PM

#

i dont like joins with sql

#

they dont feel right

#

i'd rather use something like mongo if i have an app that would heavily rely on getting data from other tables

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:16 PM

#

why don't they feel right?

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

or i would just increase the amount of columns

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

like, you're putting 2 tables side by side, you just need some identifier so you can estabilish a connection between both

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

dont know they just feel unreliable/not very performant

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

they're the exact opposite of that

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 7:18 PM

#

but then i've never used them lol

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:19 PM

#

for example, if you had a table user where each user can have N card, and each card having their own properties

#

how would you do it in a single table?

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

card_name_1 card_name_2 card_name_3

#

jk

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

table user
- id
- name

table user_card
- card_id
- user_id

table card
- id
- name
- color
- price

split hazel Jul 26, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

yeah i get it but i just like keeping data relevant to that specific thing in one place

#

not spread them

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

that's not about merely spreading, but allowing 1-N/N-1/N-N relationships

#

like, you can have many entities related to one table

#

or the reverse

#

without that you're stuck with 1 value per column

woeful pike Jul 26, 2021, 7:39 PM

#

the word you're looking for is called a junction/pivot table btw

#

the table that allows you to do many to many relationships

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 7:42 PM

#

how often does an access pattern require accessing individual entries like that tho? most times you want to list the cards a certain user has, and when you want to get a specific card, most often you already have one of the ids to look up

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:43 PM

#

just an example, like consider you want to list all the cards the user has

#

you could obv do it with a lone query, I just couldn't think of an example

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

thats what im saying

#

you could easily store all ids a user has as a serialized array for example

#

since you will most likely always be accessing them as a list, and not individually

#

the situation changes a bit if it becomes read-write heavy tho

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

how do i get the votecount

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

in my case it's indeed very RW heavy

#

since it's the main feature of my bot

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

I have a question about DigitalOcean

#

How many servers can a bot (on the lowest plan) handle if I host on DigitalOcean?

modest maple Jul 26, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

that depends on the bot

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

What exactly do you mean?

#

Like what part of the bot is it dependent on

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

Check your bot memory usage too

modest maple Jul 26, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

i mean it depends on the bot

#

your bot wont use the same resources as my bot shrug

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

True

#

But how can I get an estimate for myself

#

The bot's file size and memory usage?

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

File size shouldn't matter most of the time

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

gusty bone How many servers can a bot (on the lowest plan) handle if I host on DigitalOcean...

I have an economy bot, and it was handling up to about 2.2k servers before it got really slow

#

It was running out of ram

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

It's the CPU and memory I suppose

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

So i switched to the $10 plan

modest maple Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

if you have presence enabled

#

you can expect it to be considerably lower count

#

compared to a bot that has it disabled

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

Depends if your bot does intensive work or caches everything

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

btw how do i get the vote count]

#

monthly

modest maple Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

e.g. bot with no presence will have much lower cpu usage

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

like vote.user

#

is there a way to get like vote.votecount?

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

If you want the monthly vote count use the bots endpoint

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

modest maple e.g. bot with no presence will have much lower cpu usage

presence is like "listening to ..." right?

#

or "playing ..."

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:26 PM

#

Not just those. Statuses, custom statuses, and activities included

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 8:26 PM

#

Ok

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:27 PM

#

You won't receive those events if you remove the GUILD_PRESENCES intent

#

If you have it in the first place

#

I don't think an economy bot needs it anyway

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 8:28 PM

#

Im confused

#

Does presence in this context mean guild member presence or the presence on the bot?

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:28 PM

#

Member presence

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 8:30 PM

#

memory usage depends on a lot of factors

#

you can have a bot using 1gb ram with 100 servers or 100mb ram with 10k servers

rose warren Jul 26, 2021, 8:32 PM

Tim why no lib dev role? 👀

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 8:32 PM

like for top.gg webhooks etc

Ah probably 😅

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:33 PM

#

pale vessel Yeah

#

why does it return undefined

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:34 PM

#

It's not in the webhook payload if that's where you're trying to get it from

#

It's on a whole another endpoint

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:34 PM

#

oh

#

so how do i get it?

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

There should be a method like getBot() in the lib, not sure

uneven fulcrum Jul 26, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

ok

there is bot

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 8:35 PM

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 8:57 PM

why tho?

#

like, except for creating libs, is there an actual use-case to lock collections?

proven lantern Jul 26, 2021, 8:58 PM

#

i wanted to do it in the signature of a function so the functions dont modify input

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 8:59 PM

#

ah, that

#

you could just do new HashMap(input) tho

#

or Map.copyOf(input)

#

the latter being unmodifiable

proven lantern Jul 26, 2021, 9:00 PM

#

but someone could still go in an mutate the original parameter

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 9:00 PM

proven lantern but someone could still go in an mutate the original parameter

not with Map.copyOf()

it's literally Collections.unmodifiableMap() but shorter

proven lantern Jul 26, 2021, 9:01 PM

but the original map is still accessible

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 9:01 PM

Map.copyOf creates a new copy

proven lantern Jul 26, 2021, 9:01 PM

because the signature of the request has it there

lyric mountain Jul 26, 2021, 9:01 PM

and neither that or the Collections way prevent data change

cpuUsage is a function, not a property

Oh

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:30 PM

also cpuUsage.heapUsed doesnt exist

heap is for memory, not for cpu

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 9:30 PM

Okay

also cpuUsage does not give you what you think it does

        } else {

        }```i have this code ^^ and what it does is uh, i have to send a call the method twice for it to use run the `else` statement with the correct data.

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:35 PM

thats the thing, the method is a getter :/

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:35 PM

oh oops that is only for chuck norris jokes lmao

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:36 PM

#

grim sundial thats the thing, the method is a getter :/

it doesnt matter, if getChannel is an async function, it has to be awaited. you can make the getter return a promise, and then await it at the caller

brave garnet Jul 26, 2021, 9:37 PM

quartz kindle it doesnt matter, if getChannel is an async function, it has to be awaited. you ...

yeah, i've tried to make the channel asyncronous but i have no idea how to. one sec

#

    get channel() {
        if (Object.keys(this.client.messageChannel).length === 0) {
            this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then((data) => {
                this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client);
            });
            return this.client.messageChannel;
        } else {
            return this.client.messageChannel;
        }
    }```

#

thats the full thing, i cant make it asynchronous

#

or am just stupid

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:38 PM

#

you have to make it a promise

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:39 PM

#

yeah i tried wrapping it around in a Promise.resolve same thing

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:41 PM

#

get channel() {
  return this.client.messageChannel ? Promise.resolve(this.client.messageChannel) : this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then(data => {
    return this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client)
  })
}

#

Ohh

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:45 PM

quartz kindle ```js get channel() { return this.client.messageChannel ? Promise.resolve(this...

same thing, i also tried: js if (Object.keys(this.client.messageChannel).length === 0) { Promise.resolve( this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then((data) => { this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client); }) ); return this.client.messageChannel; } else { return this.client.messageChannel; }

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

you're not returning it

#

also what do you mean with same thing

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

oh whoops

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

then it looks like maybe Galaxygate has better prices

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

yes galaxygate is cheaper

gusty bone Jul 26, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

Aight

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

yeh i misunderstood what u said

#

same thing, it errors then i have to send a message for it to like, work as intended

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

did you change the caller to await it tho?

#

you have to await the getter

#

await something.channel

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

yeah

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:48 PM

#

if messageChannel exists, you return Promise.resolve(messageChannel) so the getter reads it as a promise

#

if it doesnt exist, you have to return getChannel itself

#

so that the caller awaits getChannel

#

and gets whatever result getChannel returns once its resolved

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:49 PM

#

so, js if (Object.keys(this.client.messageChannel).length === 0) { return Promise.resolve( this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then((data) => { this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client); }) ); } else { return this.client.messageChannel; }

#

and im calling it by: await message.channel

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:50 PM

#

Promise.resolve is for messageChannel. not for getChannel

#

for getChannel you just return it directly since its already a promise

#

and you have to return inside the then as well

#

otherwise it returns undefined after setting the value

#

or just remove the brackets to make an implicit return

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:52 PM

#

im a bit confused, because messageChannel has to be ran if getChannel is called

#

so

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:53 PM

#

getChannel is a promise, correct?

#

its an async function

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:54 PM

#

so from whay you've said, this is what i've came up with:```js
if (Object.keys(this.client.messageChannel).length === 0) {
return this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then((data) => {
Promise.resolve((this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client)));
});
}

    return this.client.messageChannel;```

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:54 PM

#

Promise.resolve is if messageChannel already exists

#

you dont need it inside the then

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 9:54 PM

#

oh

#

so i've got this: ```js
if (Object.keys(this.client.messageChannel).length === 0) {
return this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then((data) => {
this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client);
});
}

    return Promise.resolve(this.client.messageChannel)``` lets see if it work

#

nein

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 9:56 PM

#

let p = new Promise(resolve => 10);

console.log(await p) // 10
console.log(await p.then(data => { data + 5 })) // undefined (no return)
console.log(await p.then(data => { return data + 5 })) // 15 (explicit return)
console.log(await p.then(data => data + 5)) // 15 (implicit return)

#

awaiting a promise that has a .then() attached to it will return the result returned inside the .then()

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:00 PM

#

btw

#

how can i like

#

combat all this without having to even have an await there

#

so its just channel.something not await channel.something

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:01 PM

#

you cant

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:01 PM

#

oh

boreal iron Jul 26, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

quartz kindle ```js let p = new Promise(resolve => 10); console.log(await p) // 10 console.lo...

Should be pinned…

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:04 PM

#

so im a bit confused, because it still makes me call the method twice before actually like lets me access TextChannel

#

if that makes sense

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:04 PM

#

did you add the return inside the then?

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:05 PM

#

i deleted it by accident

#

whoops

#

same thing, this is the code btw

#

        if (Object.keys(this.client.messageChannel).length === 0) {
            return this.request.getChannel(this.raw.channel_id).then((data) => {
                return (this.client.messageChannel = new TextChannel(data.data, this.client));
            });
        }
      return Promise.resolve(this.client.messageChannel);```

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:06 PM

#

did you console.log the getter?

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:08 PM

#

quartz kindle did you console.log the getter?

im calling it, and because the obj is empty it is supposed to create a TextChannel instance which is this.client.messageChannel which then is called somewhere else

#

and it errors basically saying its just an empty object

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:08 PM

#

show the code that calls the getter

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

await message.channel.createMessage();

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

thats the problem

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

yeah i tried mesasge.channel.then

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

(await message.channel).createMessage()

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

same thi- oih

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:10 PM

#

otherwise you are awaiting promise.createMessage instead of awaiting promise

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:10 PM

#

oh yeah true

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:10 PM

#

would probably be a good idea to not use a getter here, to not confuse yourself

#

just make it a normal async method

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

but then i'll have to do message.channel().createMesasge wont i?

#

and it wont like, look nice idk

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

const channel = await message.getChannel();
channel.createMessage();

#

i'd do it like that

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:12 PM

#

Java

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:13 PM

#

hm, alright. thank

#

one last question

#

quick tho

#

is there a better way to get the current channels data rather than making an api call?

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:18 PM

#

Nope

#

Other than fetching the guilds channels once and cache them

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:18 PM

#

yeah but i dont get how caching would work in this sense

#

oh u edited

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:19 PM

#

pale vessel Other than fetching the guilds channels once and cache them

if i were to do this then, how would i get the current channel?

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:19 PM

#

You save them to an object/map and get it from that

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

yeah but i would have to get the id somehow to compare it to or something

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

message.channel_id?

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

if you dont have the current channel data stored anywhere, then fetching it is the only way. you can then save it somewhere to avoid re-feching later

latent heron Jul 26, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

@earnest phoenix what do you think of this?

#

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:21 PM

#

pale vessel `message.channel_id`?

that'd change tho, every time its called in a diff channel - this was my initial thought but it didnt seem very good

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:21 PM

#

quartz kindle if you dont have the current channel data stored anywhere, then fetching it is t...

ye

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:21 PM

#

Yeah it would change

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

just create a map to store channels in

#

and get them from the map

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

i still dont get it tho, cuz how am i supposed to get a specific channel from an array of channels

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

But you have all the channels cached

#

You store all channels

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

yeah and how do i know which is the current channel

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

Find the channel by ID that matches message.channel_id

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

oh yeah

#

alr

quartz kindle Jul 26, 2021, 10:24 PM

#

if(channelMap.has(channel_id)) {
  return channelMap.get(channel_id)
} else {
  const data = await request.getChannel(channel_id);
  const channel = new TextChannel(data);
  channelMap.set(channel_id, channel);
  return channel;
}

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:28 PM

#

hm

#

i got an idea, it'd be caching everything upon connect

#

but it'd be a pain to send all that data across

pale vessel Jul 26, 2021, 10:29 PM

#

That's what I said

grim sundial Jul 26, 2021, 10:29 PM

#

oh

Except you don't need to

Most libs will cache users when necessary

I think

i can use member.id or member.username. but i need like 100 of these at a time. which is why it makes sense to fetch all the ones i need at once, and compare. 1 request vs 100 requests in a short time frame.

does that help explain it? or is this just not possible?

I have a MongoDB that stores prefixes in different servers. What would be the best way to go about checking to see if the prefix corresponds to the correct server? I feel like fetching the prefix from the db every time a command is executed is inefficient, but correct me if I'm wrong.

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 7:33 AM

#

Do you not cache your prefixes?

long crow Jul 27, 2021, 7:33 AM

#

/ Go Brrrrr

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:33 AM

This is the first time I've worked with per-server prefixes from a db

earnest phoenix Jul 27, 2021, 7:34 AM

Extend the Guild object and put a prefix property ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#

Djs will cache it for you lol

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:34 AM

Not using djs

I'm sure it does, but the docs are... sub par

Also doesn't the command handler already have custom prefixes

stray onyx Jul 27, 2021, 7:35 AM

Erwin's repo (which I started off with) says this in it: ```ts
onPrefixCheck: (payload: Context) => {
const prefix = prefixes
// The example below show how you should do it. Preferably have it from a database, but make sure to
// cache it so you dont constantly fetch it from database

//  if (!payload.message.guildId) return prefixes;
//  if (
//    payload.commandClient.guildSettings.has(payload.message.guildId) &&
//    payload.commandClient.guildSettings.get(payload.message.guildId)
//      ?.custom_prefix
//  )
//    _prefix = [
//      payload.commandClient.guildSettings
//        .get(payload.message.guildId)!
//        .custom_prefix!.toLowerCase(),
//    ];
return prefix;

},

earnest phoenix Jul 27, 2021, 7:37 AM

when in doubt, ping erwin

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:39 AM

#

I would, but I'm not sure if he's available atm and I don't like randomly pinging people to ask for help

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 7:53 AM

#

You can fetch the prefix directly or cache them first (maybe on the READY event)

#

Are you self-hosting your MongoDB instance?

#

Fetching prefixes on every message should be just fine

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

I'm hosting on the cloud

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

I see

#

Then you should cache

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

Yeah, currently looking into doing that rn

nimble kiln Jul 27, 2021, 7:55 AM

#

I create an object on-ready with guildID: { "prefix": "!" } and other stuff

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:55 AM

#

Just trying to figure out a non-clunky way of doing it mmLol

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 7:56 AM

#

What's clunky about it?

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:57 AM

#

Well, my problem is that I’m trying to figure out where to connect to the db and do that from

#

Someone told me to cache the prefixes with guildids as a map as needed

#

Which makes perfect sense

#

But it’s also 3am and my brain isn’t working

nimble kiln Jul 27, 2021, 7:57 AM

#

I create a persistent db connection on script start (mysql)

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 7:58 AM

#

I just use a simple object

long crow Jul 27, 2021, 7:58 AM

#

I moved to slash command

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 7:58 AM

#

this is what my db entry looks like

#

Very simple

#

Which I’m assuming I connect to the db, fetch the entry corresponding to the guild id, then throw that into a Map

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 8:01 AM

#

Yeah

#

You can fetch all entries at startup and use new Map(entries.map(data => [data.guildId, data.prefix]))

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 8:02 AM

#

Yeah, I was told that wasn’t a great option because it’ll cache servers that don’t use the bot but still have it in the server

#

(Not really a big problem since my bot is very small, I’m just trying to think ahead)

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 8:03 AM

#

So you want to lazy load them?

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 8:03 AM

#

I’m not sure how big of a difference it would make

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 8:03 AM

#

Probably not much for a small bot, but I still do that

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 8:03 AM

#

Lazy loading or cache all at startup?

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 8:03 AM

#

Check if the prefixes inside the cache. If not, cache it

#

Lazy loading

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 8:04 AM

#

Ah

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 8:04 AM

#

Spaghet code

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 8:05 AM

#

I assume opening a connection every time a command is sent to check for prefixes would be inefficient(?)

pale vessel Jul 27, 2021, 8:05 AM

#

Dunno, I use Mongoose so I suppose it uses one connection after it connects (like a pool)

wheat mesa Jul 27, 2021, 8:07 AM

#

I think I need to get some sleep

#

My brain is fried

#

    const voiceCollection = new Discord.Collection();
    const user = await client.users.fetch(newState.id);
    const member = newState.guild.member(user);
    if (!oldState.channel && newState.channel.id === '869482645288013904') {
        const channel = await newState.guild.channels.create(user.username, {
            type: 'voice',
            parent: newState.channel.parent,
        })
        member.voice.setChannel(channel);
        voiceCollection.set(user.id, channel.id);
        channel.overwritePermissions([{
            id: user.id,
            allow: ["MANAGE_CHANNELS", "VIEW_CHANNEL", "CONNECT", "SPEAK", "PRIORITY_SPEAKER", "MANAGE_CHANNELS", "MOVE_MEMBERS", "MUTE_MEMBERS", "DEAFEN_MEMBERS"]
        }]);
        channel.overwritePermissions([{
            id: member.guild.roles.everyone.id,
            allow: ["VIEW_CHANNEL", "CONNECT", "SPEAK"],
            deny: ["MANAGE_CHANNELS", "PRIORITY_SPEAKER",]
        }]);
    } else if (!newState.channel) {
        if (oldState.channelID === voiceCollection.get(newState.id)) return oldState.channel.delete()
    }
});

And when I join the channel, the bot add permissions for me or and everyone but bot both, and sometimes nothing 😔

quartz kindle Jul 27, 2021, 9:11 AM

#

overwritePermissions() has to be awaited

#

also, you dont need to run them separately

#

you can put all permission overrides inside channels.create()

opaque seal Jul 27, 2021, 9:12 AM

overwrite permissions overwrites the previous perms too I think, or no?

you need updateOverwrites() instead

the newPresence.user

split hazel Jul 27, 2021, 10:43 AM

you can't get the roles of a user

#

you can only get it from a member which that user belongs to in a guild

eternal osprey Jul 27, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

can't i use user.id and later on fetch it

split hazel Jul 27, 2021, 10:45 AM

#

assuming you want a specific guild you'd do <guild>.members.fetch(id) (make sure to add await before that) and then access the roles via <member>.roles.cache

cinder patio Jul 27, 2021, 10:45 AM

#

If you know from which guild to get the member from, then you can fetch the member

#

otherwise no, you can't

eternal osprey Jul 27, 2021, 10:45 AM

#

yeah i do!

#

Thanks!

#

Because i have a certain concept:

#

i have a bot that actually checks the roles of a discord user. It can either be level 10, 20, 15, 25. I want to check the roles of a user and get the HIGHEST level of that user. Would i create like a chart for that using numbers? So: level 10 = 1, level 15 = 2 etc. Can i later on then just easily use the math.max property to get the certain role?

#

something like that

cinder patio Jul 27, 2021, 10:47 AM

#

It sounds like you're using discord as your database

eternal osprey Jul 27, 2021, 10:47 AM

#

wait what

#

no i just want to see if someone is streaming (using a presence event that i have already set up). I just need to get the highest level role of a certain user.

#

So i was thinking about like creating a chart and assigning numbers to the roles.

eternal osprey i have a bot that actually checks the roles of a discord user. It can either be ...

idk if there is any other faster way to achieve this\

You can get all the roles's names and get the ones which start with "Level" or whatever, then parse the number from the role name and Math.max

split hazel Jul 27, 2021, 10:56 AM

I'm pretty sure .cache objects have an .array() function which converts the role list into an array you can iterate over

do you know how to iterate over an array?
