development

[earnest phoenix]

Is this a good idea? https://www.npmjs.com/package/simple-mongodb-wrapper

[cinder patio]

There's no point

The mongoDB node.js driver is simple

that package basically renames some of the methods, that's all it does

[earnest phoenix]

Good for learning about how mongo actually works but don't release it as a package

its not mine I just asked if I should use it

[cinder patio]

u shouldn't

[rigid maple]

let fetched = { user: "TuranGe" };
let user = fetched.user 

[ERR]: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'user')
```🤔 🤨

[cinder patio]

user is a string

wait

[rigid maple]

😃

[cinder patio]

can you give more context

[rigid maple]

oh ok i solved the problem

When I send an object to the website, I can't get its content
but when I send the content of the object there is no problem

[boreal iron]

@wheat mesa

https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/message-components#text-inputs-text-input-structure

We talked about the placeholder for text input fields yesterday

There actually is a pre-filled value available

value? string a pre-filled value for this component, max 4000 characters

Which will be send with modal intertaction if the user doesn't change it

[wheat mesa]

Oh nice

[boreal iron]

testing it rn

it's a little bit annoying it's not implemented in djs yet

[spark flint]

Does anyone know how to use Forms or file upload commands with discord.js yet?

[wheat mesa]

just use detritus

[earnest phoenix]

just do fetch requests to discord api ez

[rose warren]

Omg Discord... I had a user complaining they couldn't interact with a button on a command because they kept getting an "Invalid Form Body" every time they clicked it. It was working for everyone else which was weird and I wasn't getting anything in my logs. Turns out his app was out of date. Discord released slash commands how long ago now? And they're still not working for everyone. I'm glad my bot's got message intent because interactions still seem half-baked and not at all ready to be the sole point of interaction with bots from April onwards.

[wheat mesa]

4head

[boreal iron]

err what

DiscordAPIError: 404: Not Found

is the modal ressource only available on v10?

[wheat mesa]

Don’t think so

Afaik detritus is still on v9 and it works for me

I’d test but I’m on mobile atm

[spark flint]

All slash commands were broken for me yesterday

[rose warren]

[spark flint]

Also this feature tho

[austere surge]

oo

[rose warren]

I mean, I don't mind and I think it's cool they have new features, but when they introduce them and then break them for older versions in app updates, it's not cool. Now on top of debugging our code we have to debug people's @everyone perms for slash commands to show correctly in their server and make sure the user's app is up to date! I'm all for new features, but this adds on a load more work for devs and their support teams.

[boreal iron]

why the fuck does the API returns DiscordAPIError: 404: Not Found then

Checked my code once again, I don't see any issue

[earnest phoenix]

i mean its not really discords fault for breaking their old client aka adding breaking changes

because they have to

[earnest phoenix]

But they force people to use slash commands

yea thats unfair

they didnt even finish slash commands and they are still forcing ppl to use slash commands

[wintry crow]

df

[rose warren]

Yeah it's not even just slash commands. It's interaction types in general. In this case above it was a button, not even a slash command.

[earnest phoenix]

yea that too

[rose warren]

My point is they're forcing everyone to switch to using interactions whilst making breaking changes to their apps.

[lament rock]

same here

so many 500s

[earnest phoenix]

i mean an old version of an app will break

its not like itll work forever

[quartz kindle]

forget discord

return to monke

[earnest phoenix]

return to skype

[rose warren]

They're not that old though which is why it's kinda worrying

[earnest phoenix]

ah

[boreal iron]

did you work with modals already? do they require the v10 api endpoint?

[earnest phoenix]

but a user should update their app though

[lament rock]

They're not in draft anymore?

[earnest phoenix]

i use discord mobile canary and i update it everytime hoping id get something pog

[lament rock]

Not like I need forms anyways

[earnest phoenix]

but one time tho
it was disaster (idk if it was beta or not)

[rose warren]

Yeah I agree, but in the real world that's not how 90% of users use their phone unfortunately for us

[lament rock]

dunno why semver major for just forms/non breaking changes ☠️

[boreal iron]

I wonder about the API error as the data should be correct

#development message

[lament rock]

theoretically, switching to v10 should just be a ver bump you can do manually and easily

[rose warren]

And then we get people in our support servers saying "bot's broken" and we can't figure it out until we realise the only answer to give them is "it's not the bot, discord's broken"

[earnest phoenix]

just make an faq and direct them to there kekw

[lament rock]

🅱️ot 🅱️roke

[sudden geyser]

Like anyone wants to read that

[rose warren]

I swear I actually need to do a pinned message now in my server and they're all how to debug Discord interaction issues.

[lament rock]

responding to interactions via rest helps you know wtf is going on

[boreal iron]

ffs I have literally no time to figure that out

[lament rock]

im not excited to update SnowTransfer or CloudStorm to v10 or the upcoming changes I'll need to reflect

[rigid maple]

<script>
    let asd = { username: response.user.username, avatar: response.user.avatar, bot: response.user.bot }
    console.log(asd) // { username: response.user.username, avatar: response.user.avatar, bot: response.user.bot }
    console.log(asd.username) // response.user.username
    console.log(typeof asd) // object
    console.log(typeof asd.username) // string
</script>
...
<div>
    { asd } <!-- { username: response.user.username, avatar: response.user.avatar, bot: response.user.bot } -->
    { asd.username } <!-- Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'username') -->
</div>
```🤔 🤨

[wheat mesa]

Because that’s not how html works...?

[earnest phoenix]

that's vuejs or some template language

[wheat mesa]

I would assume so but on the off chance it isn’t

[boreal iron]

hey waffle can you check if your interaction callback goes to the v9 api endpoint?

[earnest phoenix]

major respect for not using a framework for a website

[boreal iron]

I still don't get why I get a 404 API error

[wheat mesa]

I’m not home atm

[boreal iron]

then go home, now!

[wheat mesa]

Fair enough

I’d rather be at home than sitting in an English class right now!

[boreal iron]

why do you fucking play with your phone then, when being in school?

[sudden geyser]

The phone apparently teaches more

And better too

[boreal iron]

how is it possible nobody knows if the fucking modals require the v10 api endpoint

[sudden geyser]

It probably doesn't

[boreal iron]

probably

[sudden geyser]

Discord nor anyone else mentioned it in the announcement on GitHub

[boreal iron]

🤦‍♂️

ok, why does the API then return 404 for the interaction callback post?

#development message

the data structure should be right, if im not wrong

I'm responding to a slash command

[sudden geyser]

Assuming the dot notation follows the API url structure, wouldn't it be .api.interactions rather than .api.applications

[boreal iron]

err lemme check

"https://discord.com/api/v8/interactions/<interaction_id>/<interaction_token>/callback"

lol oops

stupid fake

[sudden geyser]

Got ya

[boreal iron]

Just wanted to test you

Test was successful

[sudden geyser]

Also does discord.js really let the you specify the name of the type like that

It being a low level API I thought it would require the integers

Which is 5 if I remember correctly

[boreal iron]

Nope the API also accepts the name instead of the value

ok nvm I was wrong

djs actually accepts the names, not the API

it does convert the names to ints

DiscordAPIError: Invalid Form Body
type: Value "MODAL" is not int.

looks like they have constants for each fucking possible name

stupid fake²

[marble juniper]

the api always uses numbers

discord.js tries to abstract that away

Cuz imagine having to remember the correct numbers each time

[boreal iron]

yeah figured it out already :D

[rigid maple]

I'm using Svelte

[rigid maple]

Definitely

[wheat mesa]

It’s true

[wheat mesa]

Why do you play with your phone while driving then

[boreal iron]

Because why not? I dont need to listen to a teacher smh

[sudden geyser]

But you need to listen for the upcoming sirens and $10k bill

[wheat mesa]

Same reason

[boreal iron]

who says it's illegal over here?

[sudden geyser]

You're trying to get yourself killed run over

[boreal iron]

tf... I'm not listening to loud music, just dont watch the mirrors and ignore that road

how is it my fault if some idiot is running in front of my car?

[wheat mesa]

Lol

I use my phone in class because there’s a distinct lack of content that I actually need to pay attention to

For classes like math and physics I pay attention because those have new concepts to teach all the time

Whereas all my English classes in school are all fundamentally the same thing as the previous years

They’re easy and imo pretty much pointless at a certain point

Somehow probably about 60% of my English class is failing

[boreal iron]

turns out djs doesn't even show the base interaction for a modal interaction

[INTERACTION] Received interaction with unknown type: 5

[wheat mesa]

@boreal iron this is what detritus uses for responding with a modal

[boreal iron]

ya modal is just missing in the current djs build

not an issue for me

to use the int then

[wheat mesa]

Reason #173648928273 to not use djs

[boreal iron]

LISTEN TO YOUR FUCKING TEACHER

[wheat mesa]

Nope

No teaching happening rn anyways

3 mins until class ends for lunch

[atomic fox]

this guild invited my bot too it is bad or good?

damn

did i just reply to an old msg 💀

nvm its not old

[earnest phoenix]

can i add in mongodb? like if the value was 5, and i add 2 more, it'll be 7

[solemn latch]

https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/update/inc/

[earnest phoenix]

ty

I was thinking about insert

[waxen idol]

idk they didn't seem to want to crash my bot, at least not yet

but i left it anyway

[atomic fox]

[waxen idol]

xD

[spark flint]

Yeah that’s a discord thing

It caches the leave for up to 2 months

[earnest phoenix]

Can I do a query like this?

let query = {coins, silver };

[wheat mesa]

...what?

[atomic fox]

what

wdym

[spark flint]

I’m guessing the server was deleted

By discord

Example

[atomic fox]

nice

[hazy pasture]

const browser = await puppeteer.launch()
        const page = await browser.newPage()
        await page.setViewport({
            width: 1600,
            height: 1200,
            deviceScaleFactor: 1,
          });
        await page.goto(link)
        const buffer = await page.screenshot({ path: `img.jpg` })
        
        sleep(1000)

        

        let originalImage = 'img.jpg';

        let outputImage = 'img2.jpg';

        sharp(originalImage).extract({ width: 130, height: 62, left: 40, top: 210 }).toFile(outputImage)
            .then(function(new_file_info) {
                console.log("Immagine ritagliata");
            })
            .catch(function(err) {
                console.log("Errore");

            interaction.reply({ embeds: [embed] })
        }).catch(err => {
            console.log(err);
        }).then(function(deletefiles){
            fs.unlink('./img2.jpg', function (err) {
                if (err) throw err;
            });
            fs.unlink('./img.jpg', function (err) {
                if (err) throw err;
            });
        })
        
        
        
        
    }
}```
it works 1 time, but at the second time it creates the file so late, so in tries to read it before creating it... can anyone help?
Please reply with MENTIONING on, so I can read the answer, thank you

[cinder patio]

You're mixing async/await and .then, just use one or the other.

You need to await the call to sharp so the code after it runs after the image has been saved to the file

Also, you should probably await sleep, too.

I can imagine how that function looks like

[pale vessel]

function sleep(b) {
    const a = new Date().getTime(), c = a + b;
    while (new Date().getTime() < c);
}```

[cinder patio]

big brain

[earnest phoenix]

wtf

[sudden geyser]

saw some code in my cs class on par with that

except they used for and just looped for a very long time

[marble juniper]

Seems like something tim would do

[quartz kindle]

@_@

[lament rock]

ah yes. Pause the whole thread

[raw nest]

Is there a way to make a GET request with a body in ReactJS/NextJS??

[spark flint]

You can use Ajax ig

If there’s another way then I’m gonna try that

[raw nest]

with axios you can make get request with body?

that would be absolutely bs but I hope it works xD

[spark flint]

https://reactjs.org/docs/faq-ajax.html

[raw nest]

thanks man

[earnest phoenix]

Anyone know python that can help me

[sudden geyser]

don't ask to ask

just ask what you need help with

[earnest phoenix]

Well Ik a little bit of python and I’m trying to make a help command but when I do everything it gives a error and says discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandRegistrationError: The command help is already an existing command or alias

Even tho when I click Ctrl f and type help nothing shows up

[sudden geyser]

Did you create your own help command?

If so, you probably didn't unregister the one your library has built-in

[spark flint]

client.remove_command(‘command-you-want-to-remove’)

[sudden geyser]

Isn't there an option on the constructor for this as well

[spark flint]

Idk

But this works

[earnest phoenix]

I did that and still same thing

[earnest phoenix]

No I didn’t it’s the built in help command I think

[spark flint]

Did you replace the “command-you-want-to-replace” bit

[earnest phoenix]

Yh

[spark flint]

send the client = code

Or just some code to help us get an idea

[earnest phoenix]

Uh kinda can’t do that bc it’s something that’s against tos for some stupid reason

[spark flint]

What, your bots purpose?

[earnest phoenix]

Yes

[spark flint]

What is it’s purpose?

[earnest phoenix]

Even tho it’s a private bot lmao

[spark flint]

We kinda can’t help without any context

[wheat mesa]

What does it do that’s against ToS..?

[spark flint]

^

[dry imp]

if you dont share any private infos it is not againsts tos

also i think there is a method to remove the default help cmd

[spark flint]

I already sent

[wheat mesa]

That... is not how it works

[earnest phoenix]

It’s a private Roblox cookie checker bc I use it a lot bc my cookie keeps going dead so I need to know when it’s dead bc I flip limiteds and stuff so yk

[wheat mesa]

Huh

[spark flint]

Against roblox and discord tos but ok

[earnest phoenix]

And I use websites were u use ur cookie to log in

[spark flint]

Yeah that’s sus

[wheat mesa]

Oh

[earnest phoenix]

It’s private tho

[wheat mesa]

Well then I’m afraid you won’t get help with that here :p

[spark flint]

Still

Can’t help here

[earnest phoenix]

Like I use rbxflip

And stuff

[wheat mesa]

The point is that it still violates ToS

And this server doesn’t help with that kind of thing

[earnest phoenix]

Roblox have said it’s not against tos tho on Twitter to use rbxflip bc alot of ppl were asking about it

[wheat mesa]

You just said it was against to

ToS

[spark flint]

using cookie to login is against roblox tos

[wheat mesa]

And that

[dry imp]

no i thought he is talking abt sharing the code here not abt what the bot functions

[wheat mesa]

And using discord to violate any other company’s ToS is against discord’s ToS as well

[boreal iron]

@wheat mesa
So.. after doing some tests I ended up not to use modals.
The (bot) config command contains the choices for the features you wanna edit, like nickname, channels etc.
The next argument would need to be dynamic as the nickname is a string and the channel selection the, guess, channel type

I thought I could solve this with by displaying different modal components depending on the option choice but it only supports text input, not even a fucking channel or user selection

I mean wtf is that trash

And going to validate your text input to check if it actually matches or channel, user etc. isn’t an option

What a waste of time tho

[carmine summit]

how do I fetch last 10 messages of a channel id?

[sudden geyser]

What library are you using

[carmine summit]

djs

[cobalt junco]

You can use

const x = req.body?.x || req.query?.x;

[sudden geyser]

Use <Channel>.messages.fetch({ limit: 10 }): https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/stable/class/MessageManager?scrollTo=fetch

You could also look in the .cache for the .first(10)

Or the .last(10)

[carmine summit]

whats the difference in cache?

[sudden geyser]

Cache will look for what your bot has stored in memory

Assuming you have the message intent

[raw nest]

When you build like a ReactJS app or a NextJS app (npm run build OR next build), are they also removing all system errors and things like Fetch finished loading: <FetchURL> etc.? Or what's really happening?

[carmine summit]

is there a limit on how much I can fetch?

[sudden geyser]

Up to 100 at a time

[carmine summit]

do this normally return undefnined when there is no messages in a channel?

[sudden geyser]

Yes, because a client is not associated with a channel.

Just like how you as a user aren't associated with a specific channel, like #development.

What channel do you want to get? The current channel?

e.g. message.channel

[carmine summit]

oh wait im dumb

forgot to fetch the actual channel

how can I tell if there is a specific string inside a message?

m.content.includes(userInfo.uid)
```this is what I have but TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'includes')

[sudden geyser]

cannot read property x of undefined means you're trying to get the value of a property under undefined

In this case, m.content returns undefined, so you can't do .content.includes(...)

You'll need to fix that first

probably by figuring out what m is

[carmine summit]

      for (const m of mList) {
        console.log(m);
        if (m.content.includes(userInfo.uid)) {
          m.delete();
        }
      }

[sudden geyser]

still don't know what m is

[carmine summit]

m is an object inside a map

[sudden geyser]

does it have content?

[carmine summit]

yep

[sudden geyser]

well that's odd

the error says otherwise

[cobalt junco]

Try checking if the content also exists

if(m.content && m.content.includes(..)) {

[carmine summit]

wait, mList is actually the fetched 50 last messages.

it could be that im not iterating them properly

[cobalt junco]

<Channel>.messages.fetch() returns Collection, try

for (const m of mList.values()) {}

[wheat mesa]

^^

m is probably [string, Message] and not Message as you think it is

[carmine summit]

it works, but dont know why. why?

[wheat mesa]

interface TestObj {
    content: string;
}

const a = new Map<string, TestObj>();

a.set('message1', {content: 'test'});
a.set('message2', {content: 'test2'});

for(const m of a) {
    // Not allowed: m is [string, TestObj]
    console.log(m.content);
}

for(const m of a.values()) {
    // Allowed: m is TestObj
    console.log(m.content)
}

[carmine summit]

does .values() work in any key value object?

[wheat mesa]

.values() returns an iterator of all the values in the map

[carmine summit]

does it only work in maps?

[wheat mesa]

maps, things that extend maps, etc

depends on the implementation

discord's Collection class is just an extension of Maps

so it works the same

[cobalt junco]

^this

[wheat mesa]

you could also do something like ```ts
for(const m in a) {
console.log(a.get(m)?.content);
}

[pearl trail]

for(let [, m] in a) {
     m
}

[wheat mesa]

you don't need the key for that implementation so it's better to just use values

@boreal iron not sure if you ever figured out your issue but detritus is definitely still on v9

and modals work just fine

[lament rock]

m would be [K, V] in this case

[wheat mesa]

yes

whoops

[boreal iron]

Yeah I was… errr… just stupid

[bright hornet]

How do I start when author used a command then the bot will dm the author?

I only know dm-ing the user using ?dm @user <message>

That's...that's a specific bot command sir

[pearl trail]

lmao, i thought when a user used any command, the bot will dm

[lyric mountain]

That's mee6

[bright hornet]

prob it's expires instead https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14597241/setting-expiry-time-for-a-collection-in-mongodb-using-mongoose

[delicate shore]

What is this supposed to mean

[quartz kindle]

i means the file jokes.ts does not export anything named getRandomJoke

[earnest phoenix]

you can't store an array directly in json

[quartz kindle]

you can?

i mean idk if require supports it, but JSON.parse does

[earnest phoenix]

require doesn't support it

I have tried it

[quartz kindle]

lel rly

[earnest phoenix]

you have to put the array as a property

{
"jokes": []
}

[quartz kindle]

then just fs.read it

and json.parse it

[earnest phoenix]

const { jokes } = require("jokes.json");

[earnest phoenix]

ytho

[delicate shore]

it is working for me now

all I was doing was

function({
shit1:,
shit2:
})

[quartz kindle]

waste of bytes :^)

[delicate shore]

but i had to do

 function(shit1,{
shit2
})

[earnest phoenix]

I guess nextjs was just really cringe for not letting me store an array in json

[quartz kindle]

thats a lot of shit

[delicate shore]

I know

https://blog.replit.com/rui-eng

[quartz kindle]

isnt modular css a thing tho? like react is split into modules/components, and each component has its own self contained css?

well i go sleep kthxbai

[boreal iron]

No, no you gotta wake up now and do some work!

And earn some cash, Tim

You said you’re poor, since sleeping is a waste of time and money, you not gonna sleep anymore

Why do you think I’m working around the clock?

[marble juniper]

Just make money in ur sleep

ez

[austere surge]

bitcoin mining how would you do that

[marble juniper]

Have a patreon

Ez monthly income

you are effectively making money in ur sleep

[austere surge]

just having a patreon lmao

[marble juniper]

Or you have a product u made urself with a subscription based service

[boreal iron]

Then you wake up and remember how reality actually is

[austere surge]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

solana or cakeswap staking

So I plan on making something so a user can run a command in a channel and in that channel it will send an image every hour. Now I know I should use setInterval but I obv will need to save those intervals so if the bot goes down it can rerun em (which is my issue here). Also if i set an interval in the command once the command is finished executing will it still keep sending those images in that channel

SCREENSHOT NFT EVERY HOUR?????

It isn't an nft

[marble juniper]

He was joking

[earnest phoenix]

it is ur house's location on a map

[earnest phoenix]

Ik

[rustic nova]

Screenshot the precise location of you every hour

[boreal iron]

lol people are concerned about privacy but share their whole life on social media services

[rustic nova]

True true

"I don't want to tell you in what country I am"
Also them: shares selfies from their school

[boreal iron]

Aye

And using an Android smartphone tracking them continuously 24/7

[rustic nova]

Yes

[boreal iron]

That’s how the world is

[pearl trail]

google™️

[cinder patio]

What does android have to do with this though?

[rustic nova]

Owned by Google, Google collects data

[boreal iron]

Oh you think you can disable tracking in Android completely without routing the device?

[rustic nova]

"haha lemme disable location access "

[cinder patio]

Isn't the OS open-source 🤔

[boreal iron]

You can’t even disable simple tracking without getting spammed with errors or warning Android or installed apps won’t work any longer

[cinder patio]

Phones using the OS could do that, but the OS in itself most likely doesn't since it's open source

[rustic nova]

Still am sure that Google's applications collect stuff that are "essential for usage"

[boreal iron]

Try to remove googles key apps or disable them

It’s an endless story of things you can’t do

[rustic nova]

At least not possible without rooting and removing them

But that will essentially make the android system unusable without sideloading stuff

Is micro-G open source?

[boreal iron]

Even if the base Android is open source is completely dislike the permissions structure

And how everyone is forced to use googles key services

[cinder patio]

Hmmm... I'm not sure if Android comes with google or if most manufacturers put google on it

Don't Huawawei phones use the Android OS? And they've banned google apps

Huawei

[boreal iron]

Ok which devices comes without the google services and apps? Except those manufacturers who are banned by the US

[cinder patio]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

you could make one

[boreal iron]

lmao

We already have one poor boy dealing with OS development

[cinder patio]

manufacturers prolly put google on it for the $$

[boreal iron]

Don’t need to join that sad team

I actually used Android for quite a while and got rid of it really fast

I also don’t refer to things which manufactures collect silently and hidden but I’m speaking about the stuff you as user actually can control

[cinder patio]

What phone are u using then

[boreal iron]

Well iOS of course as it allows to disable any sort of tracking without exceptions
(except the stuff which happens silently and hidden as I already mentioned)

[cinder patio]

🤭 ok then

It's ironic cause Apple is very restricting and they're more likely to track you

If you'd want more control you'd surely go with Android?

[boreal iron]

That’s correct but the difference is the company doesn’t sell your data to third parties as they need it themselves as nr 1 global player

[cinder patio]

how do you know that. Apple is much worse than Google

such a scummy company

We talked about this yesterday

[boreal iron]

In which way apple, their ecosystem, their devices or their user data got compromised or leaked the last years?

As I said I’m not talking about the telemetry data any manufacturer collects

Also the iOS permission system allows a completely separate allow/deny permission structure for any access needed

Back when I used Android you had to allow all access when downloading the app from the App Store

Apple doesn’t allow that

[cinder patio]

When did u last use Android

[boreal iron]

Hmm 3y ago?! Maybe 4

Not sure

[cinder patio]

Android has that

[boreal iron]

Not to mention the App Store in general, the restrictions and safety

[boreal iron]

Well nowadays then

[cinder patio]

And I can deny chrome & other google apps location so

[boreal iron]

Ok and you can disable tracking on the system level, when enabling wlan, for your mobile cell etc.?

[cinder patio]

Can you do that with Apple?

[boreal iron]

Yes of course

[cinder patio]

iOS

[boreal iron]

Lemme grab an image in a readable language

[cinder patio]

I don't know but how can u be sure Apple respects that?

[carmine summit]

how do I turn fetched messages into an array?

[cinder patio]

The difference between iOS and Android is that Android is "general purpose" you could say, anyone could build it and use it, iOS is made specifically for Apple phones. Therefore Apple can put whatever spyware they could in their iOS, and the data would go tooooo... Apple.

And you can't do anything about it

[carmine summit]

    console.log(typeof mList);``` returns `object`

[boreal iron]

That might be true and actually is the case as Snowden already told us but still doesn’t change the fact about the user controllable telemetry and tracking settings you can’t adjust on Android on the system level

And I can at least see and check the traffic and the tracking (location) and will see it comes to a minimum (or to null) after disabling all of them

[cinder patio]

I haven't dabbled into it, mostly because I disable location all my apps

[boreal iron]

And apps can’t overwrite the system level settings also you can’t accidentally enable it for app

[boreal iron]

Yeah and I disabled it for my entire system, that’s the difference

[cinder patio]

It's automatically disabled on android tho

The app has to ask u

[boreal iron]

The system not

Any google service is tracking you by default

To “improve” their services

Even if you don’t use the app

Like I said try disable the default google services on your android device

It’s not possible without routing the device

And yes the fact doesn’t let anybody else take a look into their ecosystem is problematic, too

No doubts on that one

[carmine summit]

how can I search for fetched messages for a string?

using .filter()?

.find()? .map()?

[pale vessel]

one message = find(), multiple = filter()

[carmine summit]

would .find() work if the message containing the string has other contents than the string?

I think it only works for exact values

[boreal iron]

That depends on your statement (expression)

find((a) => a.includes("b"))

As example

filter((a) => a.includes("b")) // returns multiple items which include b

[carmine summit]

@boreal iron then when should I use map()?

isnt it the same as filter()?

or is it completely different

[boreal iron]

filter returns a collection iirc, map of course an array

(if you refer to djs collections)

[boreal iron]

If you wanna have an array as result

[carmine summit]

m.content.match(`/(${pids.join("|")})/`)
// /(2e565cdec9dcdff44afa2b1ea71c2c2c|34482dc7c754a30aba97065d165b1b38|703aea31975f2fa45fdb3e4a8e378ad1|1789250aaf0335d750de2acf2faa707d|5737cbbf29e7e1bde4520253e920cc26|9aa92dce525591ed890cf7869cd62900)/

why when I match my string for a regex, it returns null. But when I test it in https://www.regextester.com/, it finds the string.

[cinder patio]

Why are you using regex for this?

[carmine summit]

because the message contains more content than the actual string, and I have multiple pids...

[cinder patio]

for (const pid of pids) {
   if (string.contains(pid)) {
       //...
   }
}

[carmine summit]

I also have multiple messages to test

[cinder patio]

that's one way to do it without regex

[carmine summit]

is a loop better for this?

[cinder patio]

I'd say so

[carmine summit]

why .contains()? shouldnt it be .includes()?

[cinder patio]

oop my bad yeah it's includes

[carmine summit]

i thought i have to learn something new again...

[carmine summit]

will i be able to modify pids without breaking it?

[cinder patio]

why would you want to modify it

[carmine summit]

i want to remove the pid that is already been used

[cinder patio]

You could turn the pids array to a Set so all the pids inside of it are unique

[carmine summit]

i dont need for it to be unique

[cinder patio]

Alright explain your problem in detail

[carmine summit]

i have multiple strings in an array. i also have multiple pids in an array. if a string has pid, i want pid to be deleted, so in case if another string has the same pid, the string will get deleted. those two strings are not identical.

[cinder patio]

store the deleted pids in a Set

check if a pid is in the set, if it is then you've seen it already, delete the string or whatever

[carmine summit]

how will i know what pid it is. the strings contain more than the pid

[cinder patio]

const deleted = new Set();
for (const pid of pids) {
   if (string.contains(pid)) {
       // string contains deleted pid.
       if (deleted.has(pid)) {
         //...
      } else {
         //... do something
         deleted.add(pid);
     }
   }
}

[carmine summit]

that might actually work. thanks!

Is there any way to get the announcement channel to be followed in Discord JS by the bot.

[lyric mountain]

what announcement channel?

if it's discord's, you can simply monitor the message event

[bright thorn]

like this we want user can follow this channel if they want by bot command

[lyric mountain]

you can't

this has to be done by clicking that button

[bright thorn]

but some bots doing this

how?

[lyric mountain]

they aren't probably

just regular webhook messaging system

it seems like the 2nd time it tryes to read the texzt from the photo BEFORE actually creating it

[quartz kindle]

is the code you showed the file journaling.js?

[hazy pasture]

yes

[quartz kindle]

can you show the full file?

[hazy pasture]

the rest of the code is the handler i am using

msg is too long

[quartz kindle]

you pobably need to await ReadText

[hazy pasture]

ok lemme try

[quartz kindle]

but fs.unlink is also async

you need to either promisify it, or use unlinkSync

[hazy pasture]

wdym

doesn't work with readtext asynced too

awaited*

[quartz kindle]

fs.unlink is an async operation, your ReadText function will not wait until the file is deleted before returning

it will return first, and then delete the file in the background at the same time other code is running

[hazy pasture]

so... what should I do

[quartz kindle]

either use unlinkSync

or use the promise version

fs.promises.unlink

[hazy pasture]

is the syntaxz the same?

[quartz kindle]

unlinkSync does not have a callback

its just fs.unlinkSync("file to delete")

[hazy pasture]

ok

same error :d

[quartz kindle]

then your problem is elsewhere

what does the log show before the error?

the first "immagine ritagliata" it's the time when the bot works

[quartz kindle]

you are not awaiting the function

you are using the function multiple times at once without waiting for it

[hazy pasture]

which function should I await? I am coinfused

[quartz kindle]

the function in the file journaling.js where your code is inside

[hazy pasture]

I awaited readtext and sharp

[quartz kindle]

the function that your code is inside

you need to show more of the file

[quartz kindle]

show where you use the run function

in your handler

[hazy pasture]

it's a package made by a friend

[quartz kindle]

i mean this

show where you use .run(client, interaction)

[hazy pasture]

the handler is literally this, I need to search up in the package

give me a min

I can't find out, I think I'll use the slash commands creator from discord.js guide

[quartz kindle]

are you trying to use the bot command 2 times very fast?

[hazy pasture]

whay do you mean by "fast"

[quartz kindle]

run the command again before the previous command finished

[hazy pasture]

no, but just after it finished

just after it sent the embed

[quartz kindle]

add a return to the interaction

retun interaction.reply()

[hazy pasture]

same error

[quartz kindle]

you log is showing this

[hazy pasture]

yea

[quartz kindle]

meaning you are doing 2 images at once, without waiting for one to finish

[hazy pasture]

no, it sends "immagine ritagliata" as the last console log of the command

it sends it 1 time on the first time doing the command

and it works

then it sends it again right before the error

on the 2nd time doing the cmd

[quartz kindle]

ah

[violet jewel]

a

[quartz kindle]

well apparently its an issue with the module you are using

https://github.com/goyalabhi1305/tess-based-text-from-image/issues/5

[hazy pasture]

so I need to remove part of the package

[quartz kindle]

there is a fix already but not merged

[hazy pasture]

omg it works now

thank you so so so much

you made my day

[quartz kindle]

the author of the package made it in a way that it can only be used once per process lol

probably meant to be used in cli

[boreal iron]

Hey @quartz kindle can I actually check if I already registered an event listener?
I have to register one in a module (temporarily) for reasons which would of course cause another registeration if the module is loaded again

I mean I could set a simple var, but maybe there's a thing I don't think of?!

[vale garden]

hey btw does anyone know

how this bot doesn't have any status

[spark flint]

i think

it sbecause

its been invited application not a bot

[vale garden]

wot?

you can invite an app?

[pale vessel]

it's because they use interaction webhooks instead to receive events instead of connecting to the gateway

[boreal iron]

Is that actually listed as member in the member list or did you click on his name to popup the client info?

[earnest phoenix]

it listed as a online member

[boreal iron]

ahh good to know, that's already a thing

[charred jetty]

how to get all users json data on discord.js?

[wheat mesa]

And with that question you provided us

• no context
• no library
• no code
• no idea what data you want
• and no specifics

[final mica]

what

[earnest phoenix]

no library

hm

[earnest phoenix]

[charred jetty]

aaaaaaaaaa.....just need ans😔

[lyric mountain]

explain your question better

[charred jetty]

i just need to store all of my guild members data (my bot is only in one server)...but i cant find a way to get all the users data

[solemn latch]

I feel like discord wouldn't want you to store everyone's data.

[wheat mesa]

He edited it

[earnest phoenix]

i agree

[charred jetty]

im getting only bot data from client.users.cache

[earnest phoenix]

yea my bad

[charred jetty]

i last used d.js on v12 so idk

[lyric mountain]

that's technically "all the data"

store the id, any other data just fetch from the api

[charred jetty]

im getting only the bot data

[lyric mountain]

or better yet, don't store anything since it'd be pointless

[lyric mountain]

GUILD_MEMBERS intent enabled?

[charred jetty]

with client.users.cache

[charred jetty]

this one?

[lyric mountain]

yes, and is it also enabled during client initialization?

[charred jetty]

is it ok or have to add something?

idk about this intents stuffs.. everything looks new to me now

[lyric mountain]

https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/intents.html#enabling-intents

the one you want to enable is Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MEMBERS

[charred jetty]

oh

ok lemme try then will tell if it works

[lyric mountain]

also it's quite clear you just copypasted from the docs

don't do that, take some time to understand what you're doing

else you'll become dependant of this channel

[charred jetty]

yeah.. bcs i just back to discord.js after year

[lyric mountain]

that's no excuse

read the docs, don't just copypaste

[charred jetty]

ok

[spark flint]

const guild = client.guilds.cache.get("822979643589787688");
guild.channels.cache.first()
.createInvite()
.then(invite => message.channel.send(invite.url))```

why does that not work

or am i being stupid

[lyric mountain]

maybe no permission to create an invite in that channel?

[spark flint]

TypeError: guild.channels.cache.first(...).createInvite is not a function

[wheat mesa]

Channels are not just text channels iirc

[spark flint]

ah

[spark flint]

https://capy-cdn.xyz/ielcE8M7.png

after evalling message.guild.channels

[hazy pasture]

does someone know if there is a way to make that every new week and every new month the bot does something?

[spark flint]

what do you mean

[hazy pasture]

like
on every monday it sends a message

on every month it sends another message

[hazy pasture]

@spark flint

[wheat mesa]

Cron scheduler ig

[lyric mountain]

why do they always ping after answering the question

[wheat mesa]

Because they want a response in 2 seconds

[lyric mountain]

yes, that's definitely a task for cron

[wheat mesa]

They’re deferring the interaction

Waffle is thinking...

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[spark flint]

const channels = message.guild.channels.fetch().array()```

[wheat mesa]

Iterate through the channels until you find the first one that’s a TextChannel

[lyric mountain]

...channels.fetch().array().filter(c => c instanceof TextChannel)

or something like that

[wheat mesa]

Nah not instanceof

Use c.type

[hazy pasture]

this means that

chron.schedule("1 * * * * * *", () => {}```

executes every monday?

[spark flint]

TypeError: message.guild.channels.fetch(...).array is not a function

[wheat mesa]

You need to await it

You’re probably trying to call .array on a promise

[quartz kindle]

(await ...channels.fetch()).array().filter(...)

[wheat mesa]

^ that

[spark flint]

let channels = [];
message.guild.channels.cache.forEach(chn => {if (chn.type == "GUILD_TEXT") { channels.push(chn) }})
channels;```

that worked

[hazy pasture]

?

[wheat mesa]

Channels aren’t guaranteed to be cached I don’t think but yeah if it works it works

[lyric mountain]

http://www.cronmaker.com/

[quartz kindle]

they are if youre using regular djs, since they dont support disabling channel cache

[boreal iron]

that's every 1st second each minute

[wheat mesa]

Ah

God imagine fetching every single channel and caching it on startup with a massive bot

That sounds like hell

[quartz kindle]

good thing nobody does that

[wheat mesa]

4 hours later

[boreal iron]

the more you know the better

[wheat mesa]

“My bot is finally online!”

Hey fake

I’m in English class again 😉

[boreal iron]

Give me the number of your teacher... I will call him and tell him you're a bad boy

Now!

[wheat mesa]

Pffft she doesn’t care

[boreal iron]

pretty good teacher

[earnest phoenix]

me when the word wrap

[wheat mesa]

There’s a certain point where teachers stop caring about what you do in their class because you’re old enough to know that it’s your education not theirs

[lyric mountain]

when you enforce items per row instead of letting flexbox do its job

[boreal iron]

not when I was young

[earnest phoenix]

don't form elements automatically wrap tho

[wheat mesa]

There’s a few of my teachers that care

[lyric mountain]

not if u enforce item count

[wheat mesa]

Most don’t though

[lyric mountain]

like, force 4 items per row

then it WILL fit 4 items in a row

[boreal iron]

I'm actually so done with modals as they don't support anything other than text input, right before the feature really makes it way into discord

[wheat mesa]

I can see it being way more useful in the future

only if it will support other fields

[wheat mesa]

Maybe once they support dropdowns, numbers, etc

[boreal iron]

once

2030

I mean why can't they publish something after thinking of it a little bit more

[proven lantern]

is there a way to tell intellij where the source code is? /opt/ is a special directory for aws lambda layers.

also how can i tell my unit tests where the source code is. i tried this for jest

{
  "jest": {
    "moduleNameMapper": {
      "^/opt/nodejs/(.*)$": "<rootDir>/layer/nodejs/$1"
    }
  }
}

[lyric mountain]

right click -> copy path/reference

as for unit tests, you probably shouldn't include layer/nodejs/

[proven lantern]

like this?

[lyric mountain]

now choose the proper path

[proven lantern]

i have to use /opt/ as the path. that tells aws lambda to load from the lambda layers

[lyric mountain]

intellij doesn't know that, so it yellows the path as invalid

[proven lantern]

i want to tell it

[lyric mountain]

alt + enter -> inspections -> suppress for statement

[proven lantern]

i'm trying to get all the refactoring tools enabled

[lyric mountain]

idk if that's possible at all

[proven lantern]

it might not be

[lyric mountain]

unless you connect intellij to aws

which I also don't know if it's possible

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/toolkit-for-jetbrains/latest/userguide/create-new-lambda.html

[proven lantern]

i have the plugins all setup, and i opened a ticket to see if they can add the feature

[lyric mountain]

it is

[proven lantern]

https://github.com/aws/aws-toolkit-jetbrains/issues/3020

[hazy pasture]

https://sourceb.in/rVNHCWVv0p it logs 'test' but doesn't send the message, anyone know why?

[spark flint]

try js const channel = await client.channels.cache.get("941750305022947331") await channel.send({ content: 'test', components: [row] })

idk

[wheat mesa]

Because it doesn’t know what msg is and you never defined client

Assuming that’s your whole file

[hazy pasture]

without components it works

I need to define msg cuz I need to edit the msg later

[wheat mesa]

Is that snippet the only thing in your file?

I would assume not since it works without components

Do you get an error?

Because if I’m looking at these docs right it seems like addComponents() takes an array

[pale vessel]

it does not require an array

[wheat mesa]

In that case I’m going to assume that guild isn’t cached, I don’t know

[hazy pasture]

it's the only guild the bot is in

[boreal iron]

Do you get an error?

[hazy pasture]

no

[marble juniper]

Random but

how do I restart the containers in a docker compose only if the images for them have been changed

so like I got container 1 and 2 but only the image for 2 changed

so only container 2 gets restarted

[eternal osprey]

 if(!category2){
  po2 = await message.guild.channels.create(`COMMUNITY-MONDAY`, {
  type: 'category',
  permissionOverwrites: [
      {id: message.guild.id, allow: ['SEND_MESSAGES']},
      {id: message.guild.id, allow: ['VIEW_CHANNEL']},
      {id: client.user.id, allow: ['VIEW_CHANNEL']},
      {id: client.user.id, allow: ['SEND_MESSAGES']},
  ]
})
 }``` and ```js
  channel2 = await message.guild.channels.create("community-nominates", {
      type: "text",
      parent: po2.id,``` why is this returning me the id undefined error?

[sudden geyser]

where though

the error means you're trying to do something.x when something is undefined

so where it's occurring is helpful

[split hazel]

Help pls

[earnest phoenix]

oh god i've seen the same code before and don't create an invite link to the guilds your bot joins

[sick agate]

Oh boi

[split hazel]

sorry that was my arch nemesis

[boreal iron]

Editing a non-ephemeral deferred response with an ephemeral one and vise versa still doesn’t work

Is that considered to be a bug or intentionally?

Has anyone ever said something officially about that one?

@pale vessel usually knows such weird things

[pale vessel]

i don't do weird things unlike a certain person in this channel

[wheat mesa]

Idk, but it’s quite annoying imo

[earnest phoenix]

I've already asked about this in the Discord Developers server, it doesn't work because when you defer the response to the interaction, the "thinking" state becomes the initial response to the interaction, and when you edit it, it doesn't change the response's ephemeral optionality, because you're editing a response, not creating a new one

[fallen holly]

what is this error

Invalid form Body 

  method: 'get',
  path: '/channels/931996787953270843/messages?limit=',
  code: 50035,
  httpStatus: 400,
  requestData: { json: undefined, files: [] }
}

[sudden geyser]

?limit= is suspicious

there's supposed to be a number after the =

or there could be no reason to include the ?limit= since it'll default to 50

[boreal iron]

Yeah unfortunately I already expected that answer

But as thinking as response isn’t ephemeral, too it should be in theory to adjust it for the first response (after deferring)

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, I suggested that the "thinking" state should at least be a separate placeholder instead an initial response placeholder to prevent the upstream response from taking the options the "thinking" state has, but I don't think they'll ever change that

[boreal iron]

Hmm probably not

I usually like to display the response non-ephemeral and errors as ephemeral messages

But yeah this doesn’t work

Guess I gotta do the validation first, then deferring

Or set a timeout for error messages being removed after some time

[fallen holly]

What im confused

[boreal iron]

Show the associated code to the error

[fallen holly]

here https://sourceb.in/Y1z9detUix

[vivid fulcrum]

you need to parse amount into a number

[fallen holly]

what u mean by that i don't get it

[vivid fulcrum]

right now your amount variable is a string

"50" is not the same as 50

former is a string, latter is a number

[fallen holly]

ok

[fiery stream]

why does this not start 🥲

[split hazel]

because you have a dream pfp

[split hazel]

not sure maybe you havent saved or the bot.run is blocking?

[fiery stream]

everything is saved lemme try running it before the bot or just commenting out the bot.run

[fiery stream]

lowkey worked not really

[split hazel]

two very conflicting statements did it or did it not

[fiery stream]

Mostly yes but no i have to have a run def in class so it actually runs 🙂

[split hazel]

is there a method called run_async or something

i dont exactly know how python handles this stuff

[fiery stream]

there's a package called asyncio but im not really good with concurrency

[split hazel]

yeah its a blocking call

i think you need to do something like asyncio.run(bot.run)

then it wont block

oh

dont use run

@fiery stream replace bot.run with bot.start

that way it shouldnt block

[fiery stream]

ahhh what if i user asyncio on both of the things web n bot itself

[split hazel]

i dont know but you should use start

[fiery stream]

hmm that solved the issue

i think

maybe

no its not gonna work lel

cuz bot.run() is this def

ayyy i fixed everything 🙂

[split hazel]

in that case i think you should change that to start

nice

[fiery stream]

ohh you mean change super().run to start?

[split hazel]

yeah

[fiery stream]

lol i failed it didnt work

only one works at a time

once i control + C the other starts working

H!ping

[sharp saddle]

Coding is for the weaks, I use Bot Ghost 😎 😎 😎

[vivid fulcrum]

bot ghost is for peasants

i wrote my entire bot with google speech to text

[sudden geyser]

can you use it with google speech

would like to join a call and read out commands

[fiery stream]

imagine not using assembly to write a discord bot

[boreal iron]

With that knowledge, soon the google ai will develope own discord bots

[lament rock]

member is undefined

[fallen holly]

it is

  const member =
        message.mentions.members.first() ||
        message.guild.members.cache.get(args[0]) ||
        message.guild.members.cache.find(
          (x) =>
            x.user.username.toLowerCase() === args.slice(0).join(" ") ||
            x.user.username === args[0]
        );

[earnest phoenix]

It wasn't able to get a member mention from the message, get a member from the cache by user ID and get a member by their username

[lament rock]

all of those values returned a falsy value

[earnest phoenix]

Not all members are cached, so be sure to check for that as well, as you might be trying to get an uncached member

[simple stump]

I'm trying to make a suggestion bot by fetching the message ID via a button. However, I get the error that this.options.embeds?.map isn't a function. Can I not fetch the message ID of a message sent?

      const suggestEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setColor("#99ffb3")
        .setTitle("Suggestion by " + interaction.member.user.username)
        .setDescription(firstResponse)
        .setTimestamp();

      interaction.guild.channels.cache.get("918613584672591912").send({ embeds: makeSuggest }).then((msg) => {
        let msgId = msg.id;
        const row = new MessageActionRow().addComponents(
          new MessageButton()
            .setCustomId("suggest-" + id)
            .setLabel("Make a Suggestion")
            .setStyle("SUCCESS")
        );
        msg.edit({ components: [row] });
      });

[earnest phoenix]

What's the value of the makeSuggest variable?

[simple stump]

Oops wrong embed

      const makeSuggest = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setColor("#99ffb3")
        .setTitle("Make a Suggestion")
        .setDescription("If you wish to make a suggestion, click the button below! **Joke suggestions will get removed.**")
        .setTimestamp();

[earnest phoenix]

It must be an array

embeds: [makeSuggest]

[simple stump]

OOPS

[fallen holly]

can i put this into a embed

  aliases: ["avatar"],
  
  descriptions: "Shows users profile picture",
  cooldown: 5,

[simple stump]

ty

mb

[sudden geyser]

yes if you try hard enough

just get that object and treat it like an object

e.g. ```js
let command = ...; // figure out how to get it

send({ embeds: [{ title: ${command.name} (${command.aliases.join(", ")}) }] });

[quaint wasp]

yo

how do you usually fix this?

[fallen holly]

how do i add text next to each other in embed

[sudden geyser]

That's just plain old Markdown

You'd use ** for bold and a line break to separate the two.

[fallen holly]

how i have it

[sudden geyser]

Not exactly.

The difference is you're using fields while the first image is using a single field/description with line breaks.

You could use .setDescription instead

[fallen holly]

aight

i forgot i could use that

[proven lantern]

is it possible to create a symbolic link in windows that would point to a unix type directory like /opt/nodejs/

i mean /opt/nodejs/ would point to c:\something

maybe if i run from cygwin

[boreal iron]

just play around with mklink in the command prompt

mklink /D ../.. ../..
if I’m not wrong

[lyric mountain]

Aren't windows shortcuts (.lnk) essentially the same as symlinks?

[proven lantern]

i think so, but they probably require the windows style paths

[lyric mountain]

It wouldn't be an issue in code since most libs parse the path to the proper format

[proven lantern]

i need to make a symlink at a system level to trick intellij, but i cant make unix links

at least i dont think so

but i should at least be able to run unit tests

[lyric mountain]

Doesn't intellij understand both forms of path tho?

[proven lantern]

it understands the relative paths using ../, but not absolute paths from the root

[lyric mountain]

No plugins for that?

[proven lantern]

perhaps...

good idea

[carmine summit]

How do I insert multiple buttons in an action row using discord.js

let row = new MessageActionRow().addComponents(new MessageButton().setCustomId(`${act.pid}_getLink`).setLabel("GET LINK").setStyle("PRIMARY"));

[proven lantern]

maybe i should just test the small functions and ignore all the integration level functions

[proven lantern]

let row = new MessageActionRow()
    .addComponents(new MessageButton().setCustomId(`${act.pid}_getLink1`).setLabel("GET LINK").setStyle("PRIMARY"))
    .addComponents(new MessageButton().setCustomId(`${act.pid}_getLink2`).setLabel("GET LINK").setStyle("PRIMARY"));```

custom id cannot be the same or else it will give a 4xx error

[carmine summit]

yep

thanks!

[proven lantern]

np

[proven lantern]

btw the limit for components per action row is 5

[carmine summit]

yep, ive read

but dont understand why they have to have a limit for those

wait, why didnt the setCustomId show up when I logged the button?

wait, it does show up. its just not in console when I logged it.

[earnest phoenix]

How should I handle sending something every x amount of time to a channel a person used a command in.

Should I use a interval?

[wheat mesa]

setInterval depending on how long you want it to go on

If you want something sent every few days or something though then there’s probably a lib out there for that (not sure if cron is a good choice or not for your situation)

[earnest phoenix]

I was just planning on sending something every hour. Though I also want to plan for scaling so is setInterval good to be used when multiple guilds/channels will be having an interval being ran for them

[wheat mesa]

Probably best to use cron

[bright hornet]

Im having a problem with my set-prefix command which is the bot not sending back the command,

I'm using slappey package to create my command, here's the code:

in my MessageEvent.js

async run(client, message, prefix) {
    if (message.author.bot) return;
    if (message.content.startsWith(prefix)) {
      const [cmdName, ...cmdArgs] = message.content
      .slice(prefix.length)
      .trim()
      .split(/\s+/);
      const command = client.commands.get(cmdName);
      if (command) {
        command.run(client, message, cmdArgs);
      }
    }```

in my `index.js`:

```js
(async () => {
  client.commands = new Map();
  client.events = new Map();
  let prefix;
  await registerCommands(client, '../commands');
  await registerEvents(client, '../events');
  await client.login(process.env.DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN);

  client.on('messageCreate', async message => {
  
    const PrefixSchema = require("./prefixSchema");
    let data = await PrefixSchema.findOneAndDelete({
      guildID: message.guild.id
    })
    if(data === null) {
      prefix = "?"
    } else {
      prefix = data.newPrefix
      console.log(data.newPrefix)
    }
  })
})();```

[wheat mesa]

Is it necessary to require the schema every single time a message is created..?

[bright hornet]

If i called the prefix outside of (async) im receiving an error such as prefix is not defined

[bright hornet]

nope lmao

[wheat mesa]

Because you defined prefix in a different scope

[bright hornet]

Yea that's the point :/

[austere surge]

wait is that 2 message events

[wheat mesa]

From what it looks like your logic here is backwards

[bright hornet]

Nope

[reef pebble]

I have a heroku server for votes collection, the problem is when the server idles and I get a vote it logs 2 times on my side, is it a problem with top.gg. im not using dbl package to listen for votes. Is there a timeout and retry in top.gg or should I change my code?

[wheat mesa]

You need to check the prefix in messageCreate, and if it passes the check in messageCreate, then run the command

You don’t need to pass it to the command every single time

That’s a waste

Also I just have a lot of questions about this

[bright hornet]

Then I should remove the event in index.js?

[wheat mesa]

I think you should rethink most of your design here

Because it doesn’t really make sense... at all

[austere surge]

^

[bright hornet]

It's in slappey package

[austere surge]

1 why

2 i still think theres 2 message events

[wheat mesa]

I don’t know what that is but it still doesn’t make sense regardless

[austere surge]

crappy bot template

[wheat mesa]

None of this design makes sense

I’m not trying to shit on it but I’m just saying that I think it needs to be recreated with more planning

[austere surge]

its supposed to be a really nice easy bot template but tbh its just horribly confusing

[bright hornet]

^

[austere surge]

github.com/stuyy/slappey if you wanna look at it lmao

[wheat mesa]

Seems like it’s overcomplicating everything

[austere surge]

yes

[bright hornet]

I only got problem with this set-prefix

but overall

[austere surge]

i used slappey for a very short bit and hated it

[bright hornet]

its nice

[wheat mesa]

I would have to disagree from looking at it

[bright hornet]

for you tho and death

xd

[wheat mesa]

Wdym

[earnest phoenix]

Hm yea you're probably right

[wheat mesa]

I’m saying that the design looks flawed and overcomplicated for no reason when you could just use normal djs

[austere surge]

a bot in a single file is better

[wheat mesa]

Uh...

Not sure if I agree with that one

[austere surge]

better than slappey* ||imo||

[earnest phoenix]

A bot in a single file is like asking to be pushed off a cliff

[austere surge]

yes

[wheat mesa]

The worst part of it is that it’s easy to get lost in

[copper fog]

Gets worse if your bot's starting to get big

[austere surge]

yes

[carmine summit]

how long does ephemeral interactions last?

[pale vessel]

until you dismiss the message or close the app?

[carmine summit]

but the message isnt dismissable

do I have to add the ephemeral tag into the reply or to the buttons?

seems like I need to add it to the reply...

what does ephemeral do to the buttons?

[austere surge]

wdym

[carmine summit]

wait nvm im so dumb, you cant put ephemeral in buttons

[rocky hearth]

why would <Interaction>.channel_id could be undefined? coz a interaction should definitely come from a channel

[marble juniper]

well

context menus maybe

but idk

[pulsar bone]

you need to learn basis of English

[dry imp]

who?

[pulsar bone]

besides if you really think this is a basis thing why don't you just tell me instead of being a helpless person

[dry imp]

why must i tell u?

why dont u figure the simple things urself?

[pulsar bone]

bookmark to reply

[dry imp]

im not obligated to help you, i ask you to learn the basics because it is all in the basics of python, if you know the basics then you should have your answer. I just dont want to spoonfeed small things because it tends to make people lazy and ask another simple question instead of learning abt them or searching them online.

hope you understand

[pulsar bone]

firstly I know how "in" works but if you use in like
if "text" in msg.content
it will only get the msg which is sent after the bot is online
but "in" alone can't fetch old msg you stupid

and fetch is a part of discord.py which not the basic of python

[pulsar bone]

laziness = not doing anything

not just asking simple question
