can you give me a high level overview of what you are doing?
you might need to change some ways you do things
earnest phoenix
Its my way to load slash commands
proven lantern
what is the high level overview of your bot and the commands?
what is the purpose?
earnest phoenix
Manage guilds
proven lantern
how are you commands currently organized?
["1","2","3"].includes("1")
{"1":true,"2":true,"3""true}["1"]
proven lantern
why do you need to change those commands dynamically?
earnest phoenix
Bc i want it like it
proven lantern
i think they are going to force you to make some changes
/moderation ban:@user kick:@user nuke:@channel
i'd create a moderation command with options
ban, kick, and nuke as options
proven lantern
sounds good

back to problems, why is x[i] 0 always undefined
proven lantern
back to problems, why is x[i] 0 always undefined
it's never defined
x[i] = "something"
proven lantern
you should be a pro now
earnest phoenix
really? const wont work in a for loop
proven lantern
forof
lyric mountain
for farofa it'll work, just not for normal for
proven lantern
for (const thing of arrayOfThings) {
console.log(thing)
}```arrayOfThings.map((thing, index)=>({}))
earnest phoenix
for(let i = 0; i < 1: i++) {
console.log(i)
}
ye, normal for
lyric mountain
...he needs the index
lyric mountain
arrow func is less optimized than for
lyric mountain
and using let is not that big deal
earnest phoenix
x[i] 0 works
proven lantern
better for running on more than one processor
earnest phoenix
but it returns undefined when added to b
lyric mountain
js is monothread
earnest phoenix
```js
for(let i = 0; i < 1: i++) {
console.log(i)
}
```
Itll increase i until it reaches 1 but it never reach 1 lol
proven lantern
the problem can be split up
and monothreaded in parallel
for loop is locked to the processor
lyric mountain
if you try to parallel an array op you'll end up with unsorted results
and in his case it must be ordered by index
so normal for is the best here
earnest phoenix
And you cant use const in for
proven lantern
so use a reduce function
lyric mountain
...arrow func
earnest phoenix
async function() => {
}
lyric mountain
still arrow, but now the whole result is unordered
proven lantern
embrace the arrow
lyric mountain
never use var
earnest phoenix
can u use explicit types in js
lyric mountain
not even microsoft is supporting ie5 anymore
proven lantern
wouldn't that be aweful
lyric mountain
static typing is way better, no need to figure out what type a var is during debugging
and ctrl + space becomes useful
proven lantern
when you're debugging the issue caused by using types
lyric mountain
the ide will point it first
lyric mountain
I mean, it's not normal to call .walk() on let plane = new Plane()
lyric mountain
with types you know where the issue is beforehand

Anyone know how to tell the type of an array in ts? I currently use the typeof operator but it returns object when used on an array. I’d prefer for it to return either Array<T> or T[]
I suppose I could look at the first element of the array, and take the type of that
woeful pike
you have to look at the individual element types
there's no of "an array of things" in js, it's just an array object or something else
wheat mesa
you have to look at the individual element types
Yeah I’m now realizing that’s probably the best solution
woeful pike
just use typescript 
wheat mesa
I am
lyric mountain
woeful pike
ok so you're probably going to just need to check array[0] or array.every(someTypePredicate)
wheat mesa
I think the solution is to check if the value is an array, check the first element’s type, then interpolate a string of like Array<${typeof(arr[0])}>
Something like that should work just fine
woeful pike
what are you trying to do in the first place
wheat mesa
For an eval command, just trying to set an embed footer to whatever type the returned value from the eval is
Not that I can’t tell by looking at it, just looks better than seeing Type: object when it’s clearly an array
Even though it’s not wrong
woeful pike

woeful pike
yay got it working at last
is that pg_stat_statements?
or like a version of that in whatever db you're using
woeful pike
oh cool
green kestrel
theres how it works, i commented it
theres a few ways of solving the problem, but the other approach i tried i couldnt keep stable so i didnt want to unleash it on live
the other approach was a full async-style system where each query had a feedback lambda attached
woeful pike
doesn't the busy flag need to be atomic for something like this?
woeful pike
oh I guess the struct is the only one accessing it?
woeful pike
ok that makes sense
green kestrel
if theres a race, and two try at once, the second to try has to wait for the first
so its not the end of the world, just slightly sub optimal
the same can happen if all the connections are busy at the same time anyway
woeful pike
I haven't done cpp in so long and definitely haven't messed with threads. All of this is pretty wild to a baby rust user like me even though a lot of the concepts are similar
cool that you built your own thing on top of that. I'm guessing you're keeping stats of these in prometheus or whatever too?
woeful pike
ah ok
green kestrel
i'll probably stash it to redis or something
it would make sense to stash mysql stats in mysql, but then if mysql is underperforming, or down...
so a case of not stashing all my eggs in one basket lol
woeful pike
isn't the idea of analytics that you store data separately from the infrastructure it's coming from?
but it's a pain to go make a whole new db for that if you don't already have a system for it
green kestrel
i tend to store mine in the same place
just because i then dont have to manage another system or a third party service for it
woeful pike
fair

My bot is in more than one server and I dont have the permission to delete message with /purge everywhere.

And why do you need to check your own permissions?
If you’re in the guilds your bot is in anyways you will need to check if the bot has the permission to execute the action in the first place or the API will return an error.

If you’re in the guilds your ...
so I should check if the bot have the permissions to delete messages inside the guilds for not returning an err?
boreal iron
Yeah since you’re the only one who is able to use this command you don’t have to check your own permissions tho.
Return that permission error if the bot is missing them.
If you have these permissions in a guild but your bot doesn’t, executing the command will do nothing other than returning an API error

lyric mountain
Q: "Where does everyone host their bots?"
A: "dedicated server, websites like glitch or replit, or github+ heruko or just local host"
summer dune
Yes
cinder patio
Look what they replied to man
grim aspen
summer dune
I replied to "everyone here makes discord bots with code"
Which is not the question I had originally asked
grim aspen
The answer is the link I sent or what kuu said
summer dune
I like DO apps because theyre really simple to deploy straight from github
Just plug in your master branch and it deploys on a new PR/Push
Can use any framework. There are a few natively supported ones but anything that's not directly supported, you can use a dockerfile
summer dune
No Jenkins needed for simple applications
lyric mountain
tbh, even for vps deploying from github is ez, just git pull and you're done
summer dune
AND you get a free static HTML website
If it's just HTML files, you pay nothing
I use DO Apps to host generated doxygen files
cinder patio
github actions make me wet
summer dune
I like to avoid interfacing directly with server infrastructure if I can
I want to be able to avoid using bash when deploying
lyric mountain
I like bash for how flexible it is when dealing with pre-init scripts and automated tasks
that's exactly what windows lacks
lyric mountain
I mean, windows DO have pshell/batch, but they're so half-assed that they take more time figuring out what you're doing than writing scripts
pshell takes the mess to a whole new level
summer dune
And to clarify, I dont have any issue with bash spceifically, I just dont want to interface with a shell to deploy a server; I want the act of merging to master to trigger the deployment. Infrastructure should be an abstraction to an application developer, IMO
lyric mountain
it's not like in linux where u use scripts for trivial stuff just for the sake of lazyness
lyric mountain
ik, but it's not as flexible
summer dune
How so?
lyric mountain
bash on windows runs sandboxed
summer dune
Well there's WSL, and there's also cygwin and mingw
WSL is the subsystem component but afaik cygwin and mingw run natively
summer dune
Well there's nothing "official" about bash, exactly
I like posh better than bash because it deals with everything as an object rather than a stream of data
lyric mountain
Well there's nothing "official" about bash, exactly
bash is official to unix
summer dune
I'm not sure that's true
bash was created by gnu
UNIX is a brandname by AT&T but it appears to be managed by opengroup now?
Though supposedly Linux is certified Unix Compliant according to some rando website
I mean if you take a *nix system like MacOS, they shipped an ancient version of BASH without GNU extensions until they decided to switch to zsh

And i didnt get result
So i am ignorant about it rn lol
earnest phoenix
Basically Properties are used for Design of your class. You can get it is when you are design a page of your class like design a web page there u have properties of the page, controls etc. So the properties are used for design. And function are for executing some action.

isButton is a function aka. as method in this case
Means interaction.isButton()

i did it, tysm
lyric mountain
remember that for javascript everything is a boolean
so bla.someFunction will be true if it exists
even if you completely ignored whatever that function is
earnest phoenix
So if i do it with () itll be more true?
lyric mountain
if u do with () it'll not be more true, but it'll actually execute the function

And the function actually checks if it’s really a button somebody clicked on or not

boreal iron
Still don’t get what’s the issue is
The bot can only reply to the original interaction
boreal iron
He can’t reply to you since you didn’t send anything
That’s not how follow up messages work
boreal iron
You can just send a message to the channel
Replying to the original interaction message ID
Which will ping you
If that’s what you wanna do
boreal iron
confusing
Tyrone used ping is a system message by Discord not something you can reply to
Replying to it will send a reply to the message being displayed as result of the ping command

If I send a message to a bot it only triggers message create if the bot has messaged the person after startup and then it doesn't work again when you restart the bot unless you send another message

Scam

Receiving the event while it’s offline?
The event will not be triggered unless the bot has dmed the user
And then it all gets reset when you restart the bot and the event goes back to not being triggered

Huh the event should always be triggered if somebody sends a message to the bot
The bot doesn’t need to reply or send a message in the first place
Not sure if that needs a specific intent tho
But I don’t think so

Idk how to fullfill blank spaces with '+'
boreal iron
Join is concating items of an array to a string
What you’re looking for is replace()
Using a regex to replace all spaces
boreal iron
replace(/ +/g, "+")
Must be a regex with accurate flags to replace all spaces not only one
It will also replace multiple spaces with one + only
boreal iron
👍
summer dune
Must be a regex with accurate flags to replace all spaces not only one
Can also use \s
For all whitespace
boreal iron
Yeah if you wanna include each whitespace type that makes sense
Don’t think TABS or line feeds are a thing a client can enter in Discord but Unicode whitespaces are a thing
lament rock
You can enter tabs
boreal iron
I mean they won’t be delivered as content
They will end up being a normal whitrspace
