Hello,

My code:```python

        with open('users.json', 'r') as f:

        users[str(user)]['experience'] = exp

        with open('users.json', 'w') as f:
            json.dump(users, f)
        
        user = await self.client.fetch_user(int(data['user']))
        await user.send(f":flag_fr: Merci d'avoir voté pour le bot! Vous avez reçu {exp} EXP\n:flag_us: Thank you for upvote the bot! You recieved {exp} EXP")

modest maple Oct 22, 2021, 11:11 PM

#

if you already have the STT then implementing something like python's difflib algo should work

#

https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/pmezard/go-difflib/difflib

#

oof v old package

#

meh the algo isnt too hard to transfer over

stray gulch Oct 22, 2021, 11:13 PM

#

Yeah STT isn't exactly efficient

#

sadly

#

I could use deepspeech and try to compare it for words, that's how the original detection worked

#

but the problem is when there's lots of people talking you need a way to detect it quickly, without translating all the data, and just checking for patterns

#

which is what porcupine and snowboy did

lyric mountain Oct 22, 2021, 11:23 PM

#

The min time apart they can be is 6 hours

restive willow Oct 23, 2021, 1:49 AM

#

spark flint Add @commands.cooldown(4, 86400, commands.BucketType.user)

someoen could do 4 commands in 10 seconds which would be allowed by this rule, since it allows 4 per 24h, not 1 per 6h

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 1:49 AM

#

@commands.cooldown(1, 21600, commands.BucketType.user)

#

One every 6 hours

#

That means it can’t be used more than 4 times within 24 hours

#

And is over 2 hours apart

restive willow Oct 23, 2021, 1:51 AM

#

thanks but still not exactly what I'm looking for, i need them to be at least 2 hjours apart, not at least 6 hours apart
e.g.: someone could do a command at 9 am, 11 am, 1 pm, then 3 pm, but NOT at 5 pm since they've already gone over the 4 per 24h limit

https://refactoring.guru/replace-nested-conditional-with-guard-clauses take a look at this

Replace Nested Conditional with Guard Clauses

Problem: You have a group of nested conditionals and it’s hard to determine the normal flow of code execution.
Solution: Isolate all special checks and edge cases into separate clauses and place them before the main checks. Ideally, you should have a “flat” list of conditionals, one after the other.

you have to use the import statement. I forgor if node supports it by default or if you have to enable it with a launch flag. Look it up.

earnest phoenix what if I don't want to learn a new http package instead of using the Fetch API ...

Then create your own packages to eliminate the bullshit design decisions a lot of developers make. That's what I do and while it is painful to maintain all of them, it's good to know that errors are my fault and that I can fix them whenever I want and make my own design choices which are extensible and user friendly, because I'm not just making packages for myself.

#

If you don't want to do that, then either deal with it and use what you have or suck it up and learn a new lib because there's most likely a package which does what your old package does, but better both user end wise and performance wise

#

I've shied away from a lot of common libs because they're just bloat and can easily be done manually

That code doesn’t even include the prefix check anywhere.
You declare dbPrefix as var but I don’t see any check if the content actually obtains that prefix or not.

for/againsts storing binary (images) directly in a database (e.g. mysql) as opposed to a file?

modest maple Oct 23, 2021, 4:32 PM

#

if its under 1MB its considerably more efficient to store in DB, anything over it becomes a bit more iffy, anything over 10MB is definitely more suited to file

#

not that MySQL is on the dbs i'd use list

#

generally Postgres performs well with it, Mongo also does a semi-reasonable job surprisingly.

#

Cassandra/Scylla just struggle, they have such a tight timing allowance that large inserts like that just generally cause it to timeout and abort without editing it's server config which is regarded as a cardinal sin

#

if you have a very high frequency of image rates e.g. creates alot, deletes alot. Redis works well in append only mode

Hello
I am getting discord.errors.DiscordServerError: 500 Internal Server Error (error code: 0): 500: Internal Server Error with the following code:

@BOT.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
    channel = BOT.get_channel(payload.channel_id)
    message = await channel.fetch_message(payload.message_id)
# Other things but the error comes from above

I checked the dev portal and the Member intent is set to yes, and the intents are:

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
intents.reactions = True

My bot has 113 guilds so I think that it could be an issue with the > 100 guilds intent thing, but I remember submitting that request more than a month ago, and it looks like it is still set to yes anyway.

I might be in the wrong section/server but i'm still asking for any help please, thanks

Stuff it would contain is:

A unique id assigned to that vote
at least 2 ids from a certain anime info website
Ending time
Results

and results are value - key objects containing the user id and the chosen vote

hence why we've built systems that manage millions of images backed on databases

S3 is an append only database under the hood, would you consider that bad practice

earnest phoenix Oct 23, 2021, 7:10 PM

earnest phoenix Oct 23, 2021, 7:11 PM

when you do it yourself, what people tend to do is usually use the 64bit of the images and just render it

#

you mean the base64 encoding of said image?

wheat mesa Oct 23, 2021, 7:11 PM

Am I stupid or the fuck is a “64bit of the images”

earnest phoenix Oct 23, 2021, 7:12 PM

#

I'm a bit sleepy ignore 64bit lmao

modest maple Oct 23, 2021, 7:12 PM

#

and I mean I've built systems that deal with hundreds of gigabytes a second egress lol

#

a single postgres instance can pretty easily tank 7,000 images a second on serving

#

I literally don't know where people get the stigma of going "ooh no blob storage bad" the statement has been false for a good 1 and a half decades now

#

even MySQL which is where that original idea came from improved its system enough for it to be perfectly operable lol

#

although their blob system is still a bit weird

#

the only reason you'd want to use the standard filesystem for storage images now days is because they go beyond the size of most database buffer pools which hurts performance just enough for the OS to be a more performant option.

#

what you dont get with a raw file system by default is:

Atomic writes
File change protection
Smarter caching
Incremental snapshots
Compression (although this doesnt really apply for images)
Distribution support
Replication

#

And by the time you do have that, you basically made a database anyway

native walrus Oct 23, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

Isn't an object storage basically just all of that?

modest maple Oct 23, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

Well yes, object storage are databases

#

generally they're append only in order to maintain a fast index, and then every so often you can force a re-index and purge the old data

#

this is equally the same principle with databases in general but generally it's less apparent and / or the database will implicitly run this

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

app.get("/:id", (req, res) => {
   const id = req.params.id;
   res.send(id)
   res.redirect()
});

#

thats my code rn

#

literally nothing

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

Wait

#

You have an API that fetches data from another API?

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

no

#

this isn't an api

#

this is a site that uses its api to get the type related to the id and redirects based on that

#

its a top.gg link shortener

#

so it gets either "bot" or "server" from the api i've made and then redirects from there

#

yes

#

instead of https://top.gg/bot/866364881917837312 i could have https://dbl.tf/blacklister

Top.gg

Blacklister

Blacklister is a Discord Moderation Bot with a fully functional built in user blacklist. https://blacklister.xyz

spark flint i need to get "code" and "type" from my json api output

What do you mean by this then

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

true

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

pale vessel What do you mean by this then

lemme send a ss of my api output

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

Where do you get the data?

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

pale vessel Where do you get the data?

api.dbl.tf (linking cname now)

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

pale vessel You have an API that fetches data from another API?

So basically this?

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

my api doesn't get data from anywhere else

#

just the db storing the type related to the id

#

and the code output (either 404 or 200)

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

spark flint i need to get "code" and "type" from my json api output

What do you mean? You have a json response and you are trying to extract data from it?

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

yeah

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:04 PM

Oh, how are you getting that response?

https://api.dbl.tf/test

https://api.dbl.tf/test2

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:06 PM

I'm assuming you have some sort of database to store the ID and type?

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:06 PM

#

Yep

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:07 PM

If you have a response object, just do res.data.code and res.data.type

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:07 PM

Check your code for syntax errors

Can you show a bigger snippet of the code

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:10 PM

thats it so far

#

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:10 PM

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:10 PM

#

coral sigil you need to initialize data

ah

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:10 PM

#

Callback needs to be async

#

You're using await

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:10 PM

#

that is also true

#

   const id = req.params.id;
});``` add async like this

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:11 PM

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:11 PM

Also you're closing the callback scope too early

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:11 PM

now more errors

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:11 PM

Get rid of that }); after const data

i see

i should have just stole my code from that

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:14 PM

You're using cjs

You can't use import

ah

its require isn't it

const fetch = require('node-fetch');```?

pale vessel Oct 23, 2021, 11:15 PM

Run npm i node-fetch@cjs and do that yeah

wdym

The bot default role

pls help

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:57 PM

empty pier The bot default role

You could go through the bot's roles on a server and find the role which has the same name as the bot

#

But then again, that name can be changed so

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:58 PM

spark flint

The error says it all, you tried to use import when you should've used require

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:58 PM

#

i've not tried to import tho

#

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:58 PM

oh that's weird

Maybe it is actually the other way around

You are trying to import a file that needs to be required

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:59 PM

fixed

coral sigil Oct 23, 2021, 11:59 PM

I think the other guy that was helping said that if you install a specific version of node fetch it has to be imported

spark flint Oct 23, 2021, 11:59 PM

Node fetch's new update is fucked up. It's not with your code, it's with the package. I remember seeing some fix for that in stack overflow tho, u could search there

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

#

I fixed it

hybrid cargo Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

#

Ohh alr

Yeah that was one of the fix aswell, downgrading

#

Yup

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

#

Is there an other fix?

Yeah, the way how u impot it

#

I forgot tho

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

coral sigil Is there an other fix?

I just downgraded in package.json and redid npm i

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

#

oh

hybrid cargo Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

#

Like import default and smth

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:12 AM

#

yea

#

I cant remember which one but that was a thing with other packages aswell

hybrid cargo Oct 24, 2021, 12:13 AM

But that was too much unwanted works for me. I also just downgraded it

Is there a reason you chose node-fetch over axios?

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 12:13 AM

#

coral sigil Is there a reason you chose node-fetch over axios?

i was recommended it

hybrid cargo Oct 24, 2021, 12:14 AM

#

I just didn't want to rewrite my codes, was lazy then when I searched for those fixes

#

But moved to axios the next day iirc

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:15 AM

would you use node fetch if it wasn't "broken"

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:15 AM

#

spark flint i was recommended it

Okay

hybrid cargo Oct 24, 2021, 12:15 AM

#

Depends, axios is my first preference always

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:16 AM

I too like axios more

But don't take my words. My mind is unpredictable by myself 😂. I just sometimes make dumb decisions

@coral sigil ideas?

type is not defined

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 12:20 AM

#

i know why

hybrid cargo Oct 24, 2021, 12:20 AM

#

Cuz u did not define what "type" is but used it in the res.redirect

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 12:20 AM

#

its because its getting a request when i go to localhost:3000 not localhost:3000/id

floral stone Oct 24, 2021, 12:20 AM

spark flint its because its getting a request when i go to localhost:3000 not localhost:3000...

you also forgot to define type

^^

data.type

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:21 AM

the type is on the data

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 12:21 AM

not type

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 12:21 AM

the data is the json response and it has a type

This is not a code problem

This is a problem through Discord/api to bots

How is everyone else's bots online and working then

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 2:03 AM

That’s the reason to not grant bots any permission until it necessary needs it

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 2:13 AM

#

I think there's nothing wrong about command logging, but if you generate an invite through your bot, that's not so good

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 2:13 AM

#

And we had a guy try ratelimit the bot by having him and his friends spam .help

#

He has a command to see what servers they are in so he could leave that server

spark flint Turns out it was a bot farm

I've had people maliciously try to lag out my bot, lol

#

tl;dr: Don't assume that actions are rate limited by Discord, like changing your server name

proven lantern Oct 24, 2021, 3:00 AM

#

hybrid cargo another one here, its a bot farm and we just had a discussion about that server ...

that's the first time i saw one. they must be a wave happening now

#

time to create a blacklist

stray gulch Oct 24, 2021, 3:01 AM

#

server blacklists are a slippery slope though

#

better to fix any issues they cause lol

proven lantern Oct 24, 2021, 3:01 AM

#

they just mess up my metrics

#

it's not fast spam

#

just lots of request over the day

#

i noticed a lot of events today then i started logging the guild id

#

#

only help command

#

they must be using our bots to spam discord's api. if they have 23k bots responding to !help

My bot got added to that too

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 3:59 AM

#

I'm suddenly getting multiple minutes in lag from my bot, which is very much a new thing that happened without any change to code. I'm wondering if it's either my host service, pebblehost.com, or my database service, mongodb.com. Is anyone familiar with either of these services, or might be able to tell me how to test and see what's going on?

stray gulch Oct 24, 2021, 4:18 AM

#

Not sure if it's your problem in this case, but related to what's been going on with others in this channel.. check your database queries, if you do any on actions like help commands, guild name change, etc

#

Might be overloading something

Multiple command folder ?

so inner depth? ,precedence ?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 6:50 AM

#

earnest phoenix Multiple command folder ?

yes

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 6:50 AM

#

earnest phoenix yes

Read dirs and use forEach or map

#

let me try

#

also

#

the new version of d.js has this interactionCreate thing

#

it tells me to use that instead of the message event

#

Yes

#

how do I use it

#

Read guide

#

Its a bit harder than messages

#

thats what I'm saying

#

I did read the guide

#

before

#

fs.readdirSync('./commands/')

#

this returns []

#

why

#

client.guilds.cache.get("Test guild id").commands.create({name: "ping", description:"Pong!"})

client.on('interactionCreate', async i =>{
if(i.isCommand()) {
if(i.commandName === "ping") {
i.reply("pong")
}
}

i
});

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

earnest phoenix ```js fs.readdirSync('./commands/') ```

Map them or use for Each

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

earnest phoenix Map them or use for Each

yes but it returns an empty array

#

if its empty the script won't execute anything

#

and will return

#

Object.<anonymous>

#

or something

#

if I'm not wrong

#

Do you have folders in command folder ?

#

nope

#

only one file

#

named

#

ping.js

#

You reading dirs

#

Not files

#

WAIT NVM I RAN THE CODE AGAIN AND IT WORKS NOW

#

fs.readdirSync('./commands/').forEach(file => {
    if(!file.endswith('.js')) return;
    else{client.commands.set(file.name, file)}
});

#

I don't get it

#

this should work right

#

No

#

oh

#

Ofc if you dont have folder named as some.js

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 7:05 AM

#

earnest phoenix You reading dirs

Again

#

so how do I read files

#

isn't readdirSync for reading directory files

#

fs.readfileSync(`./commands/${file}/```

#

oh wait

#

right

#

okay well I made the load thing work but its not executing the command

#

index.js

client.commands=new Discord.Collection();

umm slash commands already seperate the commands by bot

#

and god forbid if two bots have ! prefix

#

yes I know but like if you wanna use a command you type / and all the bots in that server who have slash commands will pop up and ppl find it hard to find the command they're looking for

#

also I changed my code to this just to see if it responds if someone sends a message but this isn't working

client.commands=new Discord.Collection();
fs.readdirSync('./commands/').forEach(file => {

#

Okay

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:31 AM

#

yes also I tried looking for the message intents but I couldn't find it

#

I tried the GUILD_MESSAGES but didn't work

was it the array

#

or the

intents

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:34 AM

#

Both

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:34 AM

#

I see

#

also

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:34 AM

#

You need the message intent to be able to listen for message events

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:35 AM

#

earnest phoenix also

is there not a thing like DEFAULT in the intents, I can just use it instead of calling intents different intents according to my commands

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:36 AM

#

coral sigil You need the message intent to be able to listen for message events

hm I get it

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:36 AM

#

earnest phoenix is there not a thing like `DEFAULT` in the intents, I can just use it instead of...

I don't think so, but why is initializing you client with those intents a problem? You only need to do that in that file.

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:37 AM

#

no i mean its not a problem I was just wondering if theres a thing called default for the intents like they have it in d.py

#

also what does .cleanContent actually do

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:38 AM

#

Oh okay, do you know what intents does the default give in d.py?

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:39 AM

#

coral sigil Oh okay, do you know what intents does the default give in d.py?

I found it.

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:39 AM

#

earnest phoenix also what does `.cleanContent` actually do

What do you mean?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:41 AM

#

coral sigil Oh okay, do you know what intents does the default give in d.py?

its a factory method that creates a Intents with everything enabled except presences and members.

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:42 AM

#

coral sigil What do you mean?

in the message.content

#

theres a method called cleanContent

#

does it clear the prefix part

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

This is from discord.js website : "The message contents with all mentions replaced by the equivalent text. If mentions cannot be resolved to a name, the relevant mention in the message content will not be converted."

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

if yes then its really useful for me since I'm a beginner

#

I see

#

so the mentions

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

So it replaces the user ids to usernames

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

will get converted to the username#21312 right

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

You got it

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:43 AM

#

hm what abt the

#

invalid user ids

#

what will it do

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:44 AM

#

"If mentions cannot be resolved to a name, the relevant mention in the message content will not be converted."

#

Then there will be the wrong id

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:45 AM

#

so it wont be converted

spark flint Oct 24, 2021, 10:46 AM

#

hollow tundra <@!395526710101278721>

Don’t randomly ping CMs

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:46 AM

#

coral sigil Where would you like to do that?

for a function lets say for example hello(user1, user2, user3, userN)

#

so it should take each user in each user variable

hollow tundra Oct 24, 2021, 10:47 AM

#

spark flint Don’t randomly ping CMs

ok sry

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:48 AM

#

So that is how you take multiple arguments, but are you trying to say that you don't know how many arguments it would take? So the function should be able to take a random number of arguments?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:49 AM

#

earnest phoenix for a function lets say for example `hello(user1, user2, user3, userN)`

wait is this the correct syntax of taking multiple arguments

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:49 AM

#

yes

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:49 AM

#

cause I've seen in a lot of vids they take args and then use args[1] upto args[n] according to their use

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:49 AM

#

Yea so you mean that what i wrote

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:49 AM

#

coral sigil yes

alright never mind then

#

yes

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:50 AM

#

earnest phoenix for a function lets say for example `hello(user1, user2, user3, userN)`

That function will only be able to take 4 arguments. So i dont think that's the correct way

willow mirage Oct 24, 2021, 10:50 AM

#

what the fuck

#

I just copied from discord

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:50 AM

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:50 AM

#

coral sigil That function will only be able to take 4 arguments. So i dont think that's the ...

thats what i want, limited arguments

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:51 AM

#

Then you just do hello(argument1, argument2) and so on

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 10:54 AM

hm got it

thank you very much

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:54 AM

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 10:55 AM

#

willow mirage no, I have no clue rn

Let me look into it, give me a sec

willow mirage Oct 24, 2021, 10:57 AM

#

coral sigil Let me look into it, give me a sec

ok

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:00 AM

#

Hmm, I got it working just by doing

const hook = new WebhookClient({
  url: "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/<id>/<token>",
});

#

Do you give it some options at the end that is not visible on the pic?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:01 AM

#

a question

#

how do I separate the command from the other arguments

#

so like if someone says !help Hello it should only take help

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:03 AM

#

You should parse the message and find the command name from it, let me search you a good code snippet that'll do exactly that, discordjs had a good snippet a while ago in their guide

#

Do you use the messageCreate now?

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:06 AM

#

earnest phoenix so like if someone says `!help Hello` it should only take `help`

In this case through splitting the content by whitespaces

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:06 AM

#

Here's the snippet from discord.js guide. So it gets the arguments too, for example !help arg1 arg2 it would populate the command variable with help then give all the arguments the user wrote inside args ```
client.on("message", (message) => {
if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) return;

const args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).trim().split(/ +/);
const command = args.shift().toLowerCase();

if (!client.commands.has(command)) return;

try {
client.commands.get(command).execute(message, args);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
message.reply("there was an error trying to execute that command!");
}
});

#

Then your execute function needs to be changed a little

#

You need to take the args as an argument execute(message, args). You would get the first argument with args[0]

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:10 AM

#

coral sigil Do you use the messageCreate now?

nope

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:10 AM

#

Okay

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:10 AM

#

coral sigil Here's the snippet from discord.js guide. So it gets the arguments too, for exam...

thank you

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:10 AM

#

No problem

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:12 AM

#

earnest phoenix nope

Then rename the event as message is deprecated

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:17 AM

done

also I have no errors but this code doesn't work either

client.on("messageCreate", (message) => {
    if(!message.content.startsWith(PREFIX)) return;
    const arguments=message.cleanContent.slice(PREFIX.length).trim().split(/ +/);
    const command=arguments.shift().toLowerCase();
    try {
        client.commands.get(command).excute(client, message, arguments)
    } catch (error) {
        message.reply(`No command named ${command} found.`)
    }
});

Wtf is the property cleanContent?

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:19 AM

#

It changes mentions from user ids to usernames

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:20 AM

#

*^

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:20 AM

#

So it doesn't complain about anything but doesn't work?

#

How did you test it?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:21 AM

#

yes

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:21 AM

#

coral sigil How did you test it?

I just ran it

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:22 AM

#

How do you know it doesnt work if you didn't send it a message or something?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:22 AM

#

im not that dumb

#

i did send a message

#

with the prefix

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:22 AM

#

hmm

#

Did you try logging some of those like arguments or command to see what it sees

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:23 AM

#

earnest phoenix i did send a message

Did you even get a response?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

nothing at all

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

If not did you enable the message intent?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

like you told me to use message create

#

i think thats

#

where the problem

#

started

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

Yep we talked about the intent earlier

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

On which djs version are you?

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:25 AM

#

13

#

latest one

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:25 AM

#

Nope then the event name is fine

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:25 AM

#

13.2.0 to be exact

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

GUILD_MESSAGES is added to your intents?

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

it is

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

yes

#

it is

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

It might be on the prefix part, because it stops running if it cant see a prefix

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:27 AM

#

let me remove that rq

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:27 AM

#

arguments is a reserved word in js

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:27 AM

#

Just log the message right above your prefix check.

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:27 AM

#

you cant use that name on your variables

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:29 AM

#

let me rename it

#

nope

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:31 AM

#

hmm

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:31 AM

#

boreal iron Just log the message right above your prefix check.

it does log the message

#

i think its the prefix

#

idk

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:31 AM

#

Well if it logs it check the content

#

Compare it to your prefix

#

Did you even save your commands in a map/collection in the property commands of your client?

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:34 AM

#

Yep I am testing that rn and the command is properly saved and all, the message event just isn't firing somehow

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:35 AM

#

Isn’t firing on your end or on his?

#

Since he said it logs the message, it is

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:36 AM

#

Oh I'm sorry, didn't notice that message.

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:36 AM

#

okay I fixed the prefix error

#

now i have the

#

command not found error

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:37 AM

#

Good!

Nice job!

i did

#

in a collection

#

https://lesli.is-really-hot.wtf/2bJ6OM8J

nic.#6969

#

this right?

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:40 AM

#

And your key is the command name?

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:40 AM

#

You have a small typo

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:40 AM

#

yes

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:40 AM

#

coral sigil You have a small typo

where

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:40 AM

#

client.commands.get(command).excute(client, message, args); excute should be execute

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:40 AM

#

oh my god

#

okay its working now

#

thank you sm

#

also how do I disable the mention author while replying

#

to a message

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

You may wanna check if your collection has the key stored instead of using try directly

#

Each error will cause a command not found

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

oh yeah

#

ur right

#

is there not a keyword like pass in js

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

if(!client.commands.has(command)) return command not found;

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:43 AM

#

boreal iron if(!client.commands.has(command)) return command not found;

ill use that

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:43 AM

#

Before try and catch

#

But keep in mind to switch to slash commands in the future

#

Or use the bots mentionable name as prefix

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

boreal iron Or use the bots mentionable name as prefix

how do i use that

#

is there a way I can use both

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

For any other messages you receive through the event no content will be available anymore after April 22

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

like ? and @bot

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

Make it that your bot will only answer when it is mentioned

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

boreal iron For any other messages you receive through the event no content will be availabl...

oh yeah diiscord is making that an intent

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

there you could use the cleanContent

#

But slash commands are the way to go for sure

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:47 AM

#

wait so if we won't be able to get the message content aafter april 22 how will the private bots work

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:48 AM

#

Bots in less than 75 guilds can still enable it in the dev portal

#

Like any other intent

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:48 AM

#

oh I see

#

well anyway

#

so as I was asking how do I use both

#

the prefix and mention

#

or do I just need to stick with any one of them

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:49 AM

#

If you strictly dont want to use slash commands, I think you should use the mention

#

because you still get the message content if you are mentioned (?)

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:49 AM

#

hm

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

Just check if the current prefix is used or the client.user.tag is used

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

oh yes

#

lemme try that

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

coral sigil because you still get the message content if you are mentioned (?)

Yes

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

nic use the cleancontent

#

because the message content at the time of a mention will be <@your_bot_id>

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:51 AM

#

thats what I was gonna ask lmao

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:51 AM

#

coral sigil because the message content at the time of a mention will be <@your_bot_id>

tyty

#

wait so

#

will it print it like @username#1200 or just username#1200

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:52 AM

#

the latter

#

i have to test that

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:53 AM

#

Just use the OR operator on the prefix check and check if the message content starts with `<@${client.user.tag}>`

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:54 AM

#

or is ||

#

right

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:54 AM

#

it will print ``@username#1234`

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:54 AM

#

That’s the OR operator, yes

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:54 AM

#

https://lesli.is-really-hot.wtf/GYcz8SBw

nic.#6969

#

neither of them is working

#

WAIT

#

THE PREFIX ONE IS WORKING

#

THE MENTION DOESN WORK

boreal iron Oct 24, 2021, 11:55 AM

#

What did you enter ?

#

Well we can’t see it if it’s blurred lol

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:55 AM

#

the bots name is Sample User#1209

coral sigil Oct 24, 2021, 11:55 AM

#

What are you checking on the first if

earnest phoenix Oct 24, 2021, 11:55 AM

#

with a space

I think
