development

[oblique flame]

alr

[copper cradle]

yeah I figured as much

my c/c++ installation is a bit fucked tho

I guess imma wait till I switch to linux to start doing anything

[neat ingot]

I'm wondering what kind of structure folks database' have. Like, assuming you want to allow users to have different data saved for each guild - rather than having data only be global - do you:
A: use both user and guild id's to fetch the data object to be saved. eg: ```js
const user = db.fetch({user: 'some-id', guild:'some-id'});

**B:** have some user account that stores information for each guild that user is in. eg: ```js
const account = db.fetch({user: 'some-id'});
const user = account.getUserForGuild('some-guild-id');```
**C:** something else (please share)

[sudden geyser]

I'd prefer having the user settings be under the guild since it implies ownership, but if that isn't the case, then A.

By "implies ownership", I mean who really owns some data—the user, or the guild? If the guild is deleted, so should any data associated with it. Yet option B tries to own that data and leaks into guilds, which I don't like.

[neat ingot]

ahh yea, that is a pretty valid point

my main thinking was that, with option B, it would be much easier to manage both global and guild specific information. for example, a user might purchase credits that can then be redeemed on any guild, but they are then used

or perhaps they might set some reminder, which i would consider a user specific interaction more than a guild one

option B kind of feels more like how discord manages things internally too, with a user and member differentiations

balls out: i use option A and was thinking of switching to B 😄

[void pier]

How to get about me of the user?

[neat ingot]

https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/issues/3095#issue-comment-box

Apparently bots arent allowed that info. idk if its now available or what

i know you can get a users banner now

[sudden geyser]

It's a hard problem for me to describe as it depends on what kind of database you're using. For example, if you're using MongoDB, I highly discourage B since it encourages a coupling of those documents that can be harder to manage later (http://www.sarahmei.com/blog/2013/11/11/why-you-should-never-use-mongodb/), although it concerns documents inside documents. If you're just dealing with users that have relations to guilds, it's not much of a problem to have guilds inside the user structure, but I'd still flip it since I think guilds should bridge to users rather than the opposite.

[neat ingot]

😓 I use mongodb for everything

but yea, i do see what you mean

so then how would you manage the global datas?

[sudden geyser]

Since global data is about the user, I'd just put it in the user

[neat ingot]

but if a user is specific to a guild, that cant work?

[spark flint]

Is there an event for Username changes? Djs

[neat ingot]

like, what if that user is in many guilds, which one stores the user with the global data?

[neat ingot]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/stable/class/Client?scrollTo=e-guildMemberUpdate

[spark flint]

That’s nickname tho

[neat ingot]

idk if thats only nickname in guild or real username, but i'd imagine when real username changes so does guild nick (if unset at least)?

[spark flint]

I’m trying to detect when an accounts name is changed to ModMail etc as I’m trying to stop scam accounts :)

[neat ingot]

use account id instead of name?

[spark flint]

Account ids don’t change tho

[neat ingot]

exactly, then there is no need to even listen 😄

[spark flint]

I’m trying to make it auto kick them as they mass DM users, so I kind of need to check username changes tho

[neat ingot]

not sure, i'd try that event, and give yourself a nickname on some test server, change your username, and see if the event fires?

[sudden geyser]

I'm thinking of this:

User:

• Settings:
• • Favorite Color: blue

Guild:

• Settings:
• • User: ...
• • Favorite Color: red

Here specifically, settings is a collection, and user is a reference pointing to a user. The user document has its own settings independent of the guild, so it's easy to tell what belongs where.

[neat ingot]

ahh ok, so instead of storing the document internally, you would store the id and then get that data from another collection?

[spark flint]

Found it!

client.on("userUpdate", function(oldUser, newUser){
console.log(user's details (e.g. username) are changed);
});

// userUpdate
/* Emitted whenever a user's details (e.g. username) are changed.
PARAMETER TYPE DESCRIPTION
oldUser User The user before the update
newUser User The user after the update */
client.on("userUpdate", function(oldUser, newUser){

[sudden geyser]

Assuming you're referring to users, yeah. User is a reference here pointing to an actual user document. What's cool about this structure is the user does not concern itself with the guild, yet the guild gets to control the user however it feels.

[neat ingot]

so would this be a more accurate psuedocode for what your suggesting?: ```js
const user = db.fetch({user: 'some-id'});
const guild = db.fetch({guild: 'some-id'})
const member = guild.getDataForUser(user);

[sudden geyser]

Not exactly sure, but you could probably write it that way. The guild knows its members and it knows the users it refers to (guild -> members -> nth -> user (ref)). I'm thinking more from the schema side.

[rose lance]

can I use the js function getElementsByClassName() only onto the document, or also on an element I have in a variable?

[neat ingot]

still kind of have the whole subdocument issue though for guild's member data. 😄

[neat ingot]

src: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/getElementsByClassName

[sudden geyser]

Yeah, but if you went on and fully separated all the documents and only provided references, you'd end up with some pseudo-SQL that's much harder to manage since MongoDB is not optimized for it. So, for now, I think it's fine.

[neat ingot]

lol yea, I do kind of like the ease of use mongo (mongoose.js) brings 😄

[rose lance]

weird, cause I'm getting this error from my function

function show_info(e, a) {
    e.setAttribute('onclick', 'hide_info(this, ' + a + ')')
    e.setAttribute('class', e.getAttribute('class') + ' pressed');
    let parent_el = e.parentElement.parentElement.nextElementSibling
    let data_el = parent_el.getElementByClassName(a + '-data')[0]
    data_el.setAttribute('class', data_el.getAttribute('class').replace(' hidden', ''))
}```

[neat ingot]

are you sure that it is?

e.parentElement.parentElement.nextElementSibling seems... promiscuous...

[rose lance]

not sure what you mean

[sudden geyser]

My critiques on the user was just about separating two conceptually different documents. A member is bound to a guild, so it's not that bad if it's in the document for now.

But the underlying user should stay out of it

Cover in red tape

[neat ingot]

lol yea, you do make a fair argument 🙂

[neat ingot]

eyy, happy cake day @quartz kindle

just spotted that lol

[neat ingot]

that looks bootstrappy. i like bootstrap 🙂

idk, according to the docs that function can be called on any element

[rose lance]

almost, it's tailwind 😄

[bright hornet]

im using a discord-rpc package, i want to ask, why the buttons is not working?

[neat ingot]

ahh, i've heard of that, never tried it though 😄

discord-rpc never works for me 😦

i think its cause i have nginx server running on my machine 💔

[bright hornet]

why? Whats the error?

[wheat mesa]

buttons don't work on your end

[neat ingot]

just never connects, disconnects immediately

[wheat mesa]

they work for everyone else looking at your profile though

[neat ingot]

i think nginx is like, restricting the port or something

[rose lance]

ooh I found it, I wrote getElementByClassName instead of getElementsByClassName 🤦

[wheat mesa]

discord-rpc can't be run remotely

[bright hornet]

RPC.login({ clientId: clientID }).catch(console.error)```

Thats how i solve my problem about disconnections

[neat ingot]

I do that crap like 5 times a day 😄

[wheat mesa]

the websocket rpc has been broken for ages

you can only do it via ipc

[bright hornet]

^

[wheat mesa]

that's why you can't run it remotely

[neat ingot]

i tried both ipc and websocket i think?

tbf i didnt spend much time trying 😄

[bright hornet]

yea :/

[wheat mesa]

ipc has to be run on the same machine that you're running discord on

[neat ingot]

yea it was

[wheat mesa]

not sure what your problem was with that then

personally I had no problems

[bright hornet]

Did you tried it too? The buttons? Is it working?

[wheat mesa]

were you trying to run an rpc on a bot..?

[neat ingot]

thats the error i get when trying to use some discord-rpc example project

no, its just a subfolder of my bots folder 😄

[wheat mesa]

did you set the clientId thing

also you need to have an application for it in the dev portal

[neat ingot]

yea, I tried both my bot application id and my user id lol (im nub, shh) 😄

[wheat mesa]

you can't do that

your bot application ID is not the same as your rpc application id

[neat ingot]

ahhh ok

[wheat mesa]

you need to create a separate application for the rpc on the portal and use that application id instead

[neat ingot]

so create a specific application for just the rpc?

[wheat mesa]

yes

[neat ingot]

done 🙂

so i just use this application id? i dont have to set any configuration on the dev dashboard?

[wheat mesa]

yup

[neat ingot]

same error still 😄

[wheat mesa]

I'm not sure if you need to set this or not but I have this in mine

[neat ingot]

hmm

[wheat mesa]

also can you show the code you're using?

[neat ingot]

const clientId = 'xx';

const {Client} = require('discord-rpc');
const scopes = ['rpc', 'rpc.api', 'messages.read'];
const client = new Client({transport: 'ipc'});

client.on('ready', () => {
    console.log('Logged in as', client.application.name);
    console.log('Authed for user', client.user.username);
});

// Log in to RPC with client id
client.login({ clientId, scopes });

still same error with the redirect too

lemme stop docker/nginx for a minute

[wheat mesa]

I'm still confused, what do you need docker/nginx for

[neat ingot]

nah, same error lol

multiple bots, db, metrics, websites, etc

[wheat mesa]

yes but why would that change your rpc..?

try not using the scopes btw

[neat ingot]

rpc connects to the discord programs internal server (iirc), nginx restricts access to routes and ports

[wheat mesa]

I've never messed with rpc scopes or had the need to, so I'm not sure if those scopes are affecting it or not

[neat ingot]

idk, i got my example direct from the docs 😄

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/rpc/master/general/welcome

[wheat mesa]

don't follow those, extremely outdated

[neat ingot]

😓

[rose lance]

relatable haha

[wheat mesa]

I just do ```ts
import rpc from 'discord-rpc';

const client = new rpc.Client({ transport: 'ipc' });
// do stuff with client
await client.login({ clientId: 'client-id' }).catch(console.error);

no idea what the scopes would even do

[copper cradle]

ok i directly linked the dlls and the errors seem to have vanished, now I'm getting exit status 5 from ld

zamn

[neat ingot]

omfggg... i finally got it working (rpc) and it wasnt updating because i didnt have my status thing enabled lmao

[feral stratus]

can some teach me how to make a bot that returns gif

[dry imp]

returns gif from what

what language

[earnest phoenix]

We cannot teach you how to clone schizo bot

[copper cradle]

I hate cpp

the include path is right and everything is there

how can there be an undefined reference to a shitload of functions

idk what I'm doing wrong

at least it's not a segfault

[rocky hearth]

how do I stop a flex item, to grow, when its content changes.
I hv tried setting, flex: 0 0 100px.

[earnest phoenix]

Try using max-width

[rocky hearth]

But Ive taught myself, to not use, width or height, but instead flex-basis

[earnest phoenix]

skill issue

[rocky hearth]

Can u try it https://play.tailwindcss.com/LIYb2V6TUG

u can hover over, classes, to see its styles being applied

[bright hornet]

try{
        const com = client.commands.get(command) || client.commands.find(cmd => cmd.aliases && cmd.aliases.includes(command));
        com.execute(message, args)
    } catch(err) {
        console.log(err)
    }``` why aliases is not working?

[split hazel]

can you try printing the value of cmd aliases

[earnest phoenix]

Or they can show the logged error

[split hazel]

i dont think its an error

probably their aliases just not working

[woeful pike]

I HATE how javascript doesn't have a package private modifier OMG

[earnest phoenix]

Have what now

[woeful pike]

you want to refactor a thing for better organization? no problem, just expose this function to be imported GLOBALLY by EVERY possible file in your entire project

[crystal wigeon]

hey so, how do I get my sharded discord bot app running after i compile the ts code with tsc? the file im trying to exec after compiling just ends without any logs

    execArgv: [ "-r", "ts-node/register" ],
    totalShards: "auto",
    token: DISCORD_TEST_BOT,
    respawn: true
});```

This is my shard manager for shard.ts

[woeful pike]

package private in java lets you move files around and expose them only to other files in the same directory

[crystal wigeon]

after running tsc, i removed the execArgc and changed the file to client.js

didnt work

[woeful pike]

in js you HAVE to export everything globally and it destroys intellisense

[crystal wigeon]

oh what

wym

[woeful pike]

not talking to you

[crystal wigeon]

lel

but yeah, help me out too if you can

[woeful pike]

dunno I don't make discord bots

[crystal wigeon]

no worries, i'll wait for someone else to reply

[earnest phoenix]

I really don't get what you're referring to here as "package private" in-case of JavaScript, do you mean private NPM packages or anything of that sort? Or what do you exactly mean? And you can refactor anything you want without exposing them globally

[woeful pike]

java uses the term package to refer to individual directories. In ESM's case I would expect a modifier that exposes an identifier only to the directory it's in (and above)

rust has this too

it makes organization sooooo much easier

[earnest phoenix]

Oh I see what you mean

[woeful pike]

with js I constantly have to think about is it worth to move this into a separate file and be forced to expose this small helper function to the ENTIRE WORLD vs just keeping it in the same file and taking the organizational L

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah that's not possible in JavaScript at all, although it doesn't really help organization much, but I see what you're talking about

[woeful pike]

there's absolutely 0 reason for this object to be used outside of the directory it's in, yet if I want better organization I have to litter the autocomplete of every other file with it

it absolutely helps organization

[earnest phoenix]

It does, I mean not too much but it helps the organization significantly if it's a large project, although I remember seeing a proposal to only export values to a certain set of directories or files, but I'm unsure what happened to it

It's like entirely gone

[woeful pike]

you can live without it but it's a net benefit with no downside

forces you to think about how you structure your folders and files which is not a downside in my book

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, absolutely

Although the @ prefix was suggested to make this possible to imports that mention the package identifier, although it's still stale
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/41425

And was only proposed to TypeScript

But the proposal for JavaScript is just poof

[woeful pike]

ye regular js doesn't matter I only use TS anyways

this needs to be enforced at the compiler level though. If I have to write comments I don't even want it

[crystal wigeon]

my man google

[crystal wigeon]

up

[cinder patio]

A typescript transformer could be written to make that work along with a separate language service plugin but that's too much work if you ask me

[woeful pike]

not the kind of thing you should have work with a linter since the idea is to scope available identifiers and not even have them be reachable instead of filtering "the entire world" essentially, by a comment

[cinder patio]

How do you run it currently? It should be node path/to/file, like any js file

[crystal wigeon]

yeah i tried this but nothing shows up

i ran tsc, changed the client.ts to client.js tried running it with node

it just finishes execution

[earnest phoenix]

At this point it's just a good idea to propose this in a different and more verbose way to the TypeScript committee, and burn the implementation to the TypeScript compiler rather than a plugin, although I'm sure they'll probably not accept it as the previous one was stale, but yeah, a plugin would be too much work just for that

[crystal wigeon]

also if this helps I use ts-node -r dotenv/config path/to/tsfile
To execute the shard.ts

[stiff lynx]

Why "messaggiPing": "Ei ${message.author}, per vedere la lista completa dei miei messaggi utilizza **/aiuto**."
message.author doesnt work as mention?

[earnest phoenix]

Because you're trying to use a template literal in a non-template string

"..." -> `...`

[stiff lynx]

Ik this difference, but in config.json I can't use ...

`

or I simply dont know how

[earnest phoenix]

Oh you're doing that in a JSON file, then you gotta evaluate them instead using something like the global eval() function after wrapping them in strings or replacing them yourself in a way that would match them using regex if you want, I recommend the first way

[stiff lynx]

I'm a coding noob, but not that noob to use "${} " instead of ` ${} , maybe

eval() kinda run code?

If you construct an arithmetic expression as a string, you can use eval() to evaluate it at a later time.

google is my friend

[earnest phoenix]

For example:

const { messaggiPing } = /* JSON object here. */;

const wrappedValue = `\`${messaggiPing}\``;

// Where you have the `message` parameter/variable.
const evalutedValue = eval(wrappedValue);

And it should get replaced with the value in the current scope

Although you may need to inspect the string value with the inspect() method from the built-in util module if the strings in the JSON file are using different types of quotation marks that may interfere as you'll be evaluating it in this case

A different approach to this case is to make a helper function to replace given values in a string and return them

As this way can be better than evaluating

function replacePlaceholderString(str, ...values) {
  let i = 0;

  return str.replaceAll('{}', () => values[i++]);
}

// Here we have a string with placeholders.
const someStr = 'Hello there {}, {}';

const replacedString = replacePlaceholderString(
  someStr,
  'Alfred',
  'how was your day?'
);

console.log(replacedString);
// 'Hello there Alfred, how was your day?';

@stiff lynx ^

[stiff lynx]

I think I'm gonna use this for my bot, seems more clear and easy to me. I thank you a lot for your time and your explanation.

[earnest phoenix]

You're welcome

[spark flint]

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

its ok now

i did sudo

[atomic kindle]

because you don't read errors

[spark flint]

It’s because I usually use root

[earnest phoenix]

Learn how to read errors

[neat ingot]

That is a terrible user for eval. Also, eval should almost never be used for security reasons.. A much safer approach to evaluating things is to do something like this:

[earnest phoenix]

The terrible user for eval

[neat ingot]

that way, you can provide access to specific variables within the 'eval scope', but it stops reference to any object you havent explicity passed

use* lol

[sudden geyser]

is that actually safer nvm

[earnest phoenix]

Although, I suggested to use something else to use other than the global eval() function, which to use placeholder and replace them, which they went ahead and used

The eval() idea came to my mind first as if they might have something that actually needs it

[neat ingot]

^ from my game engine 🙂

~shows how to define objects to be passed to the 'eval' function

[cinder patio]

eval and safe can't be used in the same sentance

[neat ingot]

:p

but yea, its not perfect. evaluating stuff on the fly just isnt.

at least my approach stops access to variables that arent defined within the function, such as process

[cinder patio]

errr you can access process after everything you're doing?

[neat ingot]

eval("a + b", null, true, {a:1, b: 2})```

how are you going to access process within that string?

[earnest phoenix]

The process object is global, it's accessible everywhere no matter what you do

[cinder patio]

within THAT string no but that's not the point

[neat ingot]

it is though. as that is where the user input (that could be comprimised) would occur, no?

[lyric mountain]

cant u just create a new process that runs sandboxed from the rest of the bot?

[cinder patio]

you could just pass process.exit() as the string though, you aren't doing anything to stop that

[lyric mountain]

I mean, that's how I do

[earnest phoenix]

You can filter out some globals we've defined as an operation, but not things like eternal globals such as the process object (the process will still exist, although you have to access from an internal binding)

[lyric mountain]

despite my eval being limited to me only (gotta trust noone)

[cinder patio]

You could do

const __process = process;
process = undefined;
// eval stuff
process = __process;

and you'll have to do the same for eval, require, Function

[lyric mountain]

evalString.replace("process", "bingus")

[cinder patio]

and what if one of the strings inside the eval function contains "process"

Also you can access the process in other ways

globalThis.process

bad example

[lyric mountain]

it'd become globalThis.bingus

[cinder patio]

globalThis["pro" + "cess"]

[lyric mountain]

that's tricky ig

I believe making a sandboxed process would be the best option

no need to worry about globals, just deny any I/O perm

[cinder patio]

mhm

[neat ingot]

ok yea i did just double check and i was wrong, process is still available lol. I'm sure I tested that before and it just wasnt a thing 😦

[lyric mountain]

skill issue

[neat ingot]

tbh, it does seem like just creating a vm sandbox process would be better

[lyric mountain]

ye, especially since creating new js processes is easy enough

[neat ingot]

but my game engine runs in browser - so not an option there 😛

[lyric mountain]

hm, that's tricky then

[neat ingot]

only thing that gets evaaluated is sprite position data though 🙂

its not a major concern lol

[lyric mountain]

what if u send the eval code back to the server and create a new process there

[cinder patio]

if it runs on the browser then it doesn't really matter

[lyric mountain]

true, user will shoot in their feet

[hybrid cargo]

just remove eval, ez

[earnest phoenix]

Noted, removing the global eval() function from the V8 engine rn

[cinder patio]

u could use https://github.com/patriksimek/vm2 if you're ever evaling in node but it's not 100% foolproof

[earnest phoenix]

y'all really not trust your own eval input

[neat ingot]

experience told me not to 😂

[earnest phoenix]

Nowadays you can barely trust yourself

[lyric mountain]

never trust an user
if you're testing the software, you're the user
never trust yourself

[earnest phoenix]

an user

[lyric mountain]

anuser

[earnest phoenix]

abuser

[distant cobalt]

client.on('messageCreate', message => {
    console.log("hi")
});``` it doesn't print "hi" did i do the `client.on` wrong??

[earnest phoenix]

did u send any messages?

[distant cobalt]

yeah

[earnest phoenix]

and are you on v13?

[distant cobalt]

im not sure

[earnest phoenix]

Well check cause iirc v13 is what made it so message -> messageCreate

[spark flint]

do you have message intents

[earnest phoenix]

iirc that doesn't matter

message intents is just for the content

[spark flint]

you still need message intents when defining client iirc

[hybrid cargo]

well he need to specify it while creating the content to get the event

[neat ingot]

wait, you still get the message event without content if you dont have the intent?

[spark flint]

i made that mistake

[hybrid cargo]

Yup

[earnest phoenix]

Yes

[neat ingot]

do you get the user who messaged too? 😮

[hybrid cargo]

and the content too if the message pings the bot

[earnest phoenix]

You get everything on the message except the content of the message

[neat ingot]

ooohhh, snazzy! ty for the info ❤️

[earnest phoenix]

1. Ensure that you're using discord.js v13 by using npm ls discord.js
2. Ensure that you have the GUILDS intent, in which is required to receive messages
3. And lastly check for debug logs if the last 2 solutions does not resolve the problem by listening to the debug event listener

Never knew npm ls was a thing

[neat ingot]

Can you think of anything else that might be able to be abused during eval?

I removed access to those global objects during the eval process which works well enough for that use case, but im wondering how secure i can actually get it

[earnest phoenix]

Are you using this on a bot?

[neat ingot]

atm yes, but its a small class i pulled from my browser based game engine

^ full class

[earnest phoenix]

global also exists, every global constructor can get access to the Function constructor easily

[neat ingot]

ooh yea good call 😄

[earnest phoenix]

Array.constructor and others

[neat ingot]

i mean, theres only so much i can restrict before there is no point in having such a thing 😄

[compact pier]

does nodejs have native fetch package?

[sudden geyser]

Not yet

[compact pier]

sad

[sudden geyser]

Are you sure you need this though

Is the input arbitrary data from the user or contained code only written by the dev

[haughty bough]

Hello. I'm trying to deploy some slash commands and I always get 'DiscordAPIError[50001]: Missing Access', even though I already put applications.commands in the URL scope. Any idea what it could be?

[lyric mountain]

Did u reinvite the bot to apply the new scope?

[haughty bough]

Yes

[lyric mountain]

Are u sure the source of the exceptions is the deployment of slashes and not somewhere else?

[haughty bough]

Yes, when I comment the class that is deploying the error goes away

[left badger]

So.. My bot got added to top.gg like 4 days ago and got 100 servers instant I asked for verification but here is the problem

I wanna stop my growth of bot untill it gets verified

[marble juniper]

Top.gg is not discord

lol

[left badger]

This?

[marble juniper]

It will when u hit 100 servers anyways

Cuz after that nobody can invite it anymore

unless it becomes verified

[left badger]

Did verification increased to 250 limit

[marble juniper]

Oh wait u got suspicious growth

[left badger]

Yea

[marble juniper]

Its discords way of telling u "ur bot is on a botlist"

[left badger]

All cus of top.gg

[marble juniper]

Well thats not the fault of top.gg lol

[left badger]

Mean?

[lyric mountain]

You should verify THEN add to top.gg anyway

[marble juniper]

Yes

[left badger]

No not fault I am telling that all growth cus of top.gg

[marble juniper]

Yes

[left badger]

Soo I remove it for now?

[earnest phoenix]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joke

[lyric mountain]

No no, the damage was already done

[marble juniper]

I think if it says suspicious growth u can't get verified

u need a whole new bot account and app lol

[left badger]

Oo lol

[marble juniper]

but I may be mistaken

[lyric mountain]

Not really, u can

[earnest phoenix]

Discord slowly killing top.gg
Their next move will be app discovery 💀

[lyric mountain]

But that means removing a lot of guilds

[marble juniper]

Yeah

[left badger]

K I will do it

[marble juniper]

but hitting the same amount of guilds is not difficult

by any means

[left badger]

Like how much?

[lyric mountain]

Idk, many

[left badger]

Its current is 200 lel

[marble juniper]

you can lose at Max 250 cuz of ur suspicious growth thingy

[lyric mountain]

Then u need to get a steady amount of invites across a long period

Like 2-3 months

Instead of 100 guilds/week

[left badger]

Ok what if I let it grow till 250 and it will stop automatically and wait for verification

??

[lyric mountain]

No

You'll stay locked until they believe ur not sus

[earnest phoenix]

I remember someone I had never met before said I will help you grow ur bot and then they proceeded to make 17 guilds and invite my not

[left badger]

Hmm can I change my invite link on top.gg to other bot?

[marble juniper]

No

[earnest phoenix]

It didn't reach enough guilds for verification because I deleted it

[marble juniper]

it has to match the bot u see on the top.gg page

lol

[left badger]

Is it ok if I remove from top.gg for now and readd after verification

[earnest phoenix]

That will get your bot removed from top.gg

[earnest phoenix]

Well that's fine

[marble juniper]

Imagine u were trying to invite mee6 but you get dank memer instead

how stupid would that be

[earnest phoenix]

That's an upgrade

[left badger]

😂

[marble juniper]

imagine trying to invite mee6 in the first place

[left badger]

K then ty for help I will remove bot from. Top.gg for now

Let's hope.for.best

[marble juniper]

👍

Never had to deal with the suspicious growth stuff before so idk

lol

[left badger]

Oo you also verified bot developer owo

[marble juniper]

Yeee

[left badger]

Which bot?

[marble juniper]

and not because I specifically made a bot just to get it

[earnest phoenix]

Verified stinky

[marble juniper]

Anti NSFW

Filters messages and stuff

with the power of ai

[left badger]

I seen name somewhere

I d k on top.gg or server but somewhere

[marble juniper]

I got a competitor with the same name

but they succccc

lol

[earnest phoenix]

Did you write the bot yourself?

[marble juniper]

Yes

[left badger]

Lol Lemme remove bot and come again

[marble juniper]

Fully

[earnest phoenix]

Your 20 stackoverflow tabs say otherwise

[marble juniper]

I also wrote the api my bot uses lol

[rose warren]

Imagine. Cringe.

[earnest phoenix]

Hello cheese

[marble juniper]

Whole reason the badge got removed lol

[earnest phoenix]

sadge

[rose warren]

Yeah I know

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[earnest phoenix]

mac gib me your account for verfied deb badge i will give you 2||.||00000 btc

[rose warren]

2 btc? Fine

[left badger]

K I removed bot from top.gg I will reapply when it gets verified ok?Mac sir?

[earnest phoenix]

@rose warren sir ^

[left badger]

Feels bad when you remove bot and it gets removed from trending bot list page

[rose warren]

Yeah that's fine

[wheat mesa]

I'll give you my account for 2 btc 🥺

[sudden geyser]

Mm, no early supporter badge

I'll buy it for -2 btc

[wheat mesa]

my account is almost 6 years old though!

[cinder patio]

What about early supporter AND verified dev :)

[wheat mesa]

everyone with these cool badges

[quartz kindle]

pshh what about verified AND top.gg certified :^)

[wheat mesa]

what about a 5 year 10 month 16 day and 23 hour old account :^)

with no badges

😉

[sudden geyser]

$0

[fair axle]

slash commands become invalid in how many seconds?

[quartz kindle]

3

[sudden geyser]

While I'm here, what the fuck is it with websites adding tab bars

I expect that in apps, but I see it on sites like dev.to and it freaks me out

[boreal iron]

What about an even older account without without without badges?

Where’s my without without badge badge?

[earnest phoenix]

My account is 4 years old am I special

[wheat mesa]

yours isn't older!

[boreal iron]

Yea, you are special!

Shut up it is!

[wheat mesa]

mine is 6 months older than yours

[boreal iron]

No no no must be a time zone issue

[earnest phoenix]

I use detritus, am I special now

[boreal iron]

Very special!!1!

No err in this code but I have a question.
For slice the list in more than one page, I have to map the servers, slice them and put them inside an embed?

[lyric mountain]

I hope that aint a public command

[whole glen]

what stats are posted to top.gg with auto poster

[boreal iron]

Your server count

[whole glen]

ok

[boreal iron]

(and shard count if there is some)

[stiff lynx]

Why?

How can I block interaction for buttons and select meno for users different from who used the slashcommand

[whole glen]

how many embeds can u send at once?

[earnest phoenix]

bro why

[lyric mountain]

If I read that code right, ain't that a servers list?

[stiff lynx]

yep

[lyric mountain]

That's privacy breach

[stiff lynx]

💀

[stiff lynx]

ops, my fault

luckily never put that in /help

[left badger]

Hmm

[left badger]

Bro

I did as you told now let's wait and watch

[lyric mountain]

??

[left badger]

Removed bot from top.gg and I have maintained server count to 90 servers

[cinder patio]

Another way to clone an array

[left badger]

How much time and I can reapply for top.gg?

[lyric mountain]

After u get verified

[left badger]

Shall I dm you something?

[lyric mountain]

Depends

I don't really have an ETA for how long will discord take to verify ur bot

[spark flint]

how can i get member count across all servers

discord.js

client.users.cache.size gets cached, i need theactual total

[boreal iron]

guild.memberCount

[spark flint]

i mean for all servers my bot is in

[boreal iron]

If you dont have the member intent, anything else wont be accurate anyways

[spark flint]

i have member intent

[boreal iron]

than, it's up to date

[spark flint]

ok

[boreal iron]

then use this guild property

client.guilds.cache.map((guild) => guild.memberCount);

even if FakE doesn't like map()

[cinder patio]

why

also reduce would be better

[boreal iron]

HE DIDN'T SAY HE WANTS THE COUNT OF EACH IN TOTAL

all the evil critics

[cinder patio]

member count across all servers

[boreal iron]

shhhh

[spark flint]

[boreal iron]

You didn't see anything

[spark flint]

it reutnred 365732 but that doesn't seem right, it used to be 500k+ when i used discord.py lol

[cinder patio]

ur bot must suck :c

[spark flint]

[cinder patio]

people are kicking it

[spark flint]

not left any servers for like 2 weeks lol

[boreal iron]

OK CRITICS ARE ESCALATING

/vote ban google evil crititcs

bot dead

[cinder patio]

get rekt

[cinder patio]

maybe u aren't doing something properly show cod

[spark flint]

var total = 0
client.guilds.cache.map((guild) => {total += guild.memberCount})

total```

am evalling so

[lyric mountain]

Cache

[cinder patio]

Try client.guilds.cache.reduce((acc, guild) => acc + guild.memberCount, 0) Though ur crooked code should also work

[lyric mountain]

Not all guilds are cached at all times

[cinder patio]

pretty sure discord.js caches all guilds

[boreal iron]

Of course they are

[spark flint]

client.users.cache.size gets cached, i need theactual total

[lyric mountain]

Why does it use ".cache" then?

Tf are those d.js dev decisions

[boreal iron]

bc they are cached?!

wtf

[cinder patio]

Though I am not sure if it updates .memberCount on guild join / leave

[boreal iron]

are you drunk again

[lyric mountain]

But if something is cached at all times, is it even a cache?

[boreal iron]

It does when the member intent is active

we had this a while ago

[cinder patio]

not having cache in there implies it's always getting fetched

[boreal iron]

@spark flint hey you got some py test environment to test something for me?

[spark flint]

try https://replit.com/languages/python

its great for testing code without logging in

[boreal iron]

Not found error: This is not the page you're looking for.

[spark flint]

https://replit.com/languages/python3

mb

[boreal iron]

nah need to get something to test from github

[whole glen]

Is there a good top.gg logo icon I could use for my bot top.gg command?

[split hazel]

you're welcome brother keep the change

[whole glen]

I mean a higher definition one and not just a screenshot of the server icon

[sudden geyser]

seems bright

[cinder patio]

That's the favicon for the website

[split hazel]

bro you dont just shit on someone giving you something for free:(

especially on a brother

that hurts

[whole glen]

Sry

[split hazel]

its ok

[whole glen]

Thx

[split hazel]

i have a fun project idea

since i used to be a mod bot reviewing is kinda lame

repetitive

i was thinking a bot that auto reviews

now most bots block other bots but

no one has to follow the rules:)

you can probably scrape the help command for commands with https://wit.ai but the hard part is probably the parameters

[sudden geyser]

Like for the submission process?

I think Xetera wrote some software to automate the process.

[spark flint]

https://GitHub.com/top-gg/cyclone

[sudden geyser]

Yeah that

Though it's more specialized

[woeful pike]

to be fair I haven't finished this yet lol

most of the work is still manual

I had an amazing idea for this but it became completely unusable because of slash commands

[sick agate]

kekw

[whole glen]

how can i set thumnail to local file? vote.setThumbnail('./images/icon.jpeg')

[sterile lantern]

okay so i have a index.js file running 24/7 but it seems to run into some errors often (due to some web-fetching errors) and i do have it log the error but sometimes it just crashes and i have to manually restart it. how would i make it so it ignores these errors, and if it does encounter one, to ignore it? i would use the return function but that would just stop the file from running (its on a vps)

[solemn latch]

typically you want to catch the errors and handle them, not ignore them.

ignoring errors can lead to more errors

[sterile lantern]

well yes i have it catch and console.log

but then it still crashes

const logo1 = await axios.get(`https://thumbnails.roblox.com/v1/groups/icons?groupIds=${GROUP_ID}&size=150x150&format=Png&isCircular=false`).catch(async err => {
    console.log(err)
})
const logo = logo1.data.data[0].imageUrl
    let response = await axios.get(`https://groups.roblox.com/v1/groups/${GROUP_ID}/`).catch(async err => {
    console.log(err)
})```

[solemn latch]

and whats the actual error?

[sterile lantern]

status: 500,
statusText: 'Internal Server Error',```

it usually a bunch of lines with this

it restarts by itself but at some points it just crashes

[solemn latch]

this appears to be a standard http 500 response, not an error in itself.
ideally youd handle these errors by retrying, or stopping the function.
or continue if you dont need a valid response.

[sterile lantern]

yeah but if i stopped the function it wouldnt run again

[solemn latch]

the function calls itself?

[sterile lantern]

hmm wait do you mean stopping w like return

the function is in a setInterval thing

every 40 seconds

[solemn latch]

you can return in a function in an interval

[sterile lantern]

so if there was an error, return it and then it'd run again in 30 secs right

i mean i have a return but it doesnt seem to work efficiently

ill test it out and monitor

[quartz kindle]

return doesnt stop any file from running

the only way for a return to exit a process is if the return prevents a long lasting function/listener/cycle/etc from ever starting

[quartz kindle]

also, this code will give you uncaught errors

when you use await together with .catch() the line will return the value that the .catch() function returns if an error happens

[ancient nova]

is it possible to do proxy rotation in one function? 😫

[lyric mountain]

continue = stop this iteration, go to next
break = stop this loop, go to next
return = stop this function (optionally: and return a value)

[quartz kindle]

meaning if axios.get causes an error here, it will run the .catch() function, and the .catch() function doesnt return anything, which makes logo1 become undefined ```js
const logo1 = await axios.get("url").catch(async err => {
console.log(err)
})

and then this const logo = logo1.data.data[0].imageUrl will throw an error because you cant read data of undefined

[sterile lantern]

o

[quartz kindle]

await something.catch() means return the value of something if it succeeds, or return the value of catch if it fails

[sterile lantern]

hmm so couldnt i just like return it there then

so it stops

cuz if catch doesnt give anything, it'd just return

[quartz kindle]

yes, you can make it return if logo1 is undefined

[ancient nova]

so

[sterile lantern]

alr

[quartz kindle]

if(!logo1) return

[quartz kindle]

idk what you mean by that

[lyric mountain]

aka a guard

[craggy pine]

With axios I tend to await.then(response => {thing = response.data});

[quartz kindle]

i mean, it works, but thats kinda bad design

[craggy pine]

How so

[quartz kindle]

if you ever forget await, thing will be undefined

[craggy pine]

Oh well.

I rarely forget to await my axios stuffz

    await axios.get("https://prices.runescape.wiki/api/v1/osrs/latest").then(p => {
      priceData = p.data
    })

[quartz kindle]

priceData = (await axios.get(url)).data

:^)

[craggy pine]

You know what.

You right 😛

[quartz kindle]

what you're doing is basically c/cpp style of referencing variables

[craggy pine]

Just how I learned using await and I kinda never tried anything differnet

[ancient nova]

avoid rate limit

[craggy pine]

    let priceData
    await axios.get("https://prices.runescape.wiki/api/v1/osrs/latest").then(p => {
      priceData = p.data
    })

I've always done that not really thinking

[ancient nova]

request api rate limits you if you do it so much, proxy rotation changes IP every request so it avoids that

I NEED A SIMPLE WAY OF DOING THAT

[quartz kindle]

int a;
int b;
somefunc(args, &a, &b)


function somefunc(args, &a, &b) {
  a = someresult;
  b = someresult;
}
``` c/cpp is weird

[lyric mountain]

is that valid? like, defining an outer variable inside an async method

[craggy pine]

100% valid 🙂

[ancient nova]

python weirder

[lyric mountain]

weird

[craggy pine]

Well apparentily it is weird according to Tim aswell. I'll change up my code to be a little neater knowing I can just priceData = (await axios.get(url)).data

[quartz kindle]

might be weird, but it is valid lel

[sudden geyser]

doesn't look weird to me

[craggy pine]

[lyric mountain]

you're weird

[craggy pine]

tim

[quartz kindle]

idk which api you're using, but the way to change ips is by using the host parameter in your requests to one of your ip addresses

the way to do it depends on what http lib you use

[ancient nova]

request

I know it's old but good

[ancient nova]

yep, so what's a good way of doing so

[solemn latch]

The best discussions are these ones

[craggy pine]

I may be new to JS and shit, but atleast I'm not asking "why not work!?!??!?!?!?!!?"

[quartz kindle]

do you have a list/array of ip's? or do you have a reserved ip block?

[craggy pine]

        let item = (await axios.get("https://prices.runescape.wiki/api/v1/osrs/latest?id=" + itemIDFromIndex[0] + "/5m")).data
        let sellPrice = item.data[itemIDFromIndex].high
        let buyPrice = item.data[itemIDFromIndex].low;
        let potentialProfit = sellPrice - buyPrice;

Much better looking than wrapping everything in it's own {} appreciate the tip 🙂

[quartz kindle]

xD

also ```js
https://prices.runescape.wiki/api/v1/osrs/latest?id=${itemIDFromIndex[0]}/5m

[craggy pine]

yaya I use ${} all the time.

This is like my oooolllddddd beginner stuff

[quartz kindle]

xD

[craggy pine]

b4 I knew about that

[quartz kindle]

i still used to prefer ""+"" for a long time

before i finally switched to `

[craggy pine]

I literally only use ` now for all my strings / urls, just at the time I made this command which was over a year ago, I didn't even know I could do that

Even some apis still recommend using the "" + "" stuff like this is just copy pasta code

            async function getCards() {
                const cards = await axios({
                    "method": "GET",
                    "url": "https://api.tcgplayer.com/catalog/products/" + response.data.results + "?getExtendedFields=true",
                    "headers": {
                        "Authorization": "bearer " + token,
                        "User-Agent": agent,
                        "Accept": "application/json"
                    },
                    "data": "grant_type=" + "client_credentials&client_id=" + publicKey + "&client_secret=" + privateKey
                });
                return cards.data.results
            }

tho either or work

[quartz kindle]

""+"" is better to show beginners how basic merging of variables works

[craggy pine]

ya I can agree with that for beginners

which btw, fuck html header stuff

learning that for my first time, aids.

                    "method": "GET",
                    "url": "https://api.tcgplayer.com/catalog/products/" + response.data.results + "?getExtendedFields=true",
                    "headers": {
                        "Authorization": "bearer " + token,
                        "User-Agent": agent,
                        "Accept": "application/json"
                    },
                    "data": "grant_type=" + "client_credentials&client_id=" + publicKey + "&client_secret=" + privateKey
                });

[quartz kindle]

xD

[ancient nova]

yep, I'll prolly either store them in a txt file or call from API

format will be IP:PORT

unless you need something different

I need it bad so what should I use?

[craggy pine]

idk if it's related, but a library I use that allows my to rotate ipv6's uses a thing like this

  if (options.IPv6Block) {
    options.requestOptions = Object.assign({}, options.requestOptions, {
      family: 6,
      localAddress: utils.getRandomIPv6(options.IPv6Block),
    });
  }

Obviously it's all coded for the library itself, but it does indeed rotate my ip however it works you can look at the source code https://github.com/fent/node-ytdl-core/blob/master/lib/index.js

[solemn latch]

is random a good way of rotating? 👀

[craggy pine]

i mean with a ipv6 block with a billion ips, it does the job well

[solemn latch]

ah, ok that might be enough. I'm not sure

I think a few more billion might help

[craggy pine]

exports.getRandomIPv6 = ip => {
  // Start with a fast Regex-Check
  if (!isIPv6(ip)) throw Error('Invalid IPv6 format');
  // Start by splitting and normalizing addr and mask
  const [rawAddr, rawMask] = ip.split('/');
  let base10Mask = parseInt(rawMask);
  if (!base10Mask || base10Mask > 128 || base10Mask < 24) throw Error('Invalid IPv6 subnet');
  const base10addr = normalizeIP(rawAddr);
  // Get random addr to pad with
  // using Math.random since we're not requiring high level of randomness
  const randomAddr = new Array(8).fill(1).map(() => Math.floor(Math.random() * 0xffff));

  // Merge base10addr with randomAddr
  const mergedAddr = randomAddr.map((randomItem, idx) => {
    // Calculate the amount of static bits
    const staticBits = Math.min(base10Mask, 16);
    // Adjust the bitmask with the staticBits
    base10Mask -= staticBits;
    // Calculate the bitmask
    // lsb makes the calculation way more complicated
    const mask = 0xffff - ((2 ** (16 - staticBits)) - 1);
    // Combine base10addr and random
    return (base10addr[idx] & mask) + (randomItem & (mask ^ 0xffff));
  });
  // Return new addr
  return mergedAddr.map(x => x.toString('16')).join(':');
};

how it works I guess

[lyric mountain]

I'm afraid of ipv6 if a regex to validate it is like that

[spark flint]

same

[boreal iron]

What’s the benefit of that?

[craggy pine]

I only use it specifically for ratelimiting

[solemn latch]

I'm mostly just trying to figure out how much 1 billion ipv6 ip's costs

[boreal iron]

Your public IPv6 has a prefix

That can be banned anyways

No matter what your devices IPv6 is

The base is always the same

Which your ISP does assign to you

[craggy pine]

That is also true. Tho atleast for now it works

[sudden geyser]

const IPV6_REGEX = /^...$/

[craggy pine]

not my code

[lyric mountain]

I feel there has to be a smaller regex for ipv6

[sudden geyser]

who's code be this

want to make a quick visit

[craggy pine]

a libs

[boreal iron]

Changing the IP is not the issue

[craggy pine]

i put the github above

[sudden geyser]

I have your IP

[craggy pine]

[solemn latch]

so ipv6 includes a device prefix? 👀

[boreal iron]

The issue is your public prefix, still and will ever be

[ancient nova]

😐 no ideas then?

[boreal iron]

You usually get a block assigned by your ISP

The size differes from ISP to ISP

[craggy pine]

As the ipv6 block I'm using it from a proper server, so how many is the question. Regardless, Ill use it until it gets yeeted I suppose

[boreal iron]

For example I got a /56 block

[boreal iron]

The entire block will be banned not the single IP when exceeding rate limits

Your block is public when fetching your IP

You know the base then and can ban the entire block

There’s no way around that other than using different public IPs (better around the globe)

IPv6 is no solution for anything just a nightmare especially regarding tracking

[lyric mountain]

I fear a future, where nobody memorizes localhost's IP

[boreal iron]

I fear the future where any fucking device has an unique IPv6 and can be tracked down to hell

[lyric mountain]

imagine not being able to simply write 127.0.0.1

[boreal iron]

Thanks to any asshole out there thinking IoT is something useful

[boreal iron]

::1

[boreal iron]

You gotta be more specific or nobody can help

[lyric mountain]

what kind?

[boreal iron]

You fetch a member if your library doesn’t have him cached

Well and we can’t help you without more details

If you got an error with your code just post it

If you have questions about what and how to do something then ask them as detailed as possible

[quartz kindle]

after testing a bunch of ways to grep files, including rigrep and ugrep

the normal grep is still the fastest

lmao

[boreal iron]

So worth the time you spent?

[quartz kindle]

nope

[boreal iron]

[quartz kindle]

totally not worth

i constantly get side tracked with these benchmarks lmao

[boreal iron]

Regarding your birthday that’s just another reason to drink

[quartz kindle]

if i make all my files lowercase, i can grep them all recursively in 5ms

so now the question is

grep ~15mb worth of files in 5ms, or turn them into a 200mb sqlite db to get 0.1ms response times

[quartz kindle]

i dont drink

i spent my bday coding mostly, and running these stupid benches

[boreal iron]

I personally would take the faster solution

As space isn’t expensive anymore

[quartz kindle]

the only issue is that the index takes a long time to generate

well i didnt optimize it yet

also, i will make a cache for common queries

so in most cases neither grep nor the db will be hit

eh fuck it, i'll stick with grep for now

[boreal iron]

Yeah I have that issue too

The 466GB index took around 13d

~19 when it wasn’t optimized

You might remember my rsync screenshot

When transferring the database files was faster then regenerating it

[hidden gorge]

um my node modules keep doing this idk how to fix it

      const timeout = this.client.setTimeout(() => {
        this.client.removeListener(Events.GUILD_MEMBERS_CHUNK, handler);
        this.client.decrementMaxListeners();
        reject(new Error('GUILD_MEMBERS_TIMEOUT'));
      }, time);
      this.client.incrementMaxListeners();
      this.client.on(Events.GUILD_MEMBERS_CHUNK, handler);
    });
  }

i was told to comment it out but when i do it crashes

[solemn latch]

is this on startup?

[spark flint]

How can I make a div fit the page height wise

I'm making it start like half way through the page, and h-full makes it extend the page length

[pearl trail]

100vh?

[spark flint]

yep that worked

now new issue

https://capy-cdn.xyz/ZR5GgBi8.png

on mobile view the right margin doesn't work

                <div class="article w-full rounded p-4 mb-4 text-white items-center justify-center w-1/2 md:w-3/6 m-auto ml-3 mr-3">
                    <div class="flex my-auto items-center">
                        <img src="img url" class="w-12" />
                        <span class="ml-3">How to setup ShareX</span>
                    </div>
                </div>```

[quartz kindle]

that error happens if you try to use guild.members.fetch() without having the GUILD_MEMBERS intent

[bright hornet]

so i was trying to register aliases in my command handler but I keep getting error like this ```js
command.aliases.forEach(alias => {
^

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'forEach')```

my code ```js
const fs = require('fs');
client.commands = new Collection();
client.aliases = new Collection();

const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync('./commands').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));

for(const file of commandFiles) {
const command = require(./commands/${file});
client.commands.set(command.name, command);

command.aliases.forEach(alias => {
    client.aliases.set(alias, command.name);
  });

}```

[quartz kindle]

one of your commands does not have aliases

[bright hornet]

oh i should put aliases in all commands?

[quartz kindle]

the code you showed expects all commands to have them

[bright hornet]

ohhhh

[quartz kindle]

otherwise you need to add a check to see if the current command has aliases or not

[bright hornet]

thanks thanks, this is my first time using normal handler, im done with slappey xd

[bright hornet]

its okay to leave empty aliases right

[quartz kindle]

yes

[bright hornet]

alright

thanks!

[quartz kindle]

👍

[spark flint]

bump because i need sleep

[atomic dagger]

guys I need help/ a question

[bright hornet]

after putting all aliases in my command files

still same error

[atomic dagger]

#support

[quartz kindle]

show how you put them in your commands

[bright hornet]

??

[bright hornet]

module.exports = {
    name: "testing",
    aliases: "test",
    description: "Testing Area",
    execute(message, args) {
        message.channel.send("Testing Success")
    }
}```

[atomic dagger]

Can you check my question there, please

[boreal iron]

What do you mean by making the ID public?

[quartz kindle]

your code has command.aliases.forEach(alias => {

.forEach() does not work on text

"test".forEach() is not a thing

aliases has to be an array or a collection

[boreal iron]

Open your browser inspect tool, scale to a mobile screen size and check if the margin might be overwritten

[quartz kindle]

for example aliases: ["test"]

[bright hornet]

["test"]

aaaaaa

[spark flint]

ok

how would I tell?

[boreal iron]

By selecting the element, then see it’s CSS properties

Then rescale the window

[bright hornet]

module.exports = {
    name: "testing",
    aliases: ["test"],
    description: "Testing Area",
    execute(message, args) {
        message.channel.send("Testing Success")
    }
}``` :/

client.on('messageCreate', 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(err) {
        console.log(err)
    }
});``` or i need to call it here too?

[quartz kindle]

you put all aliases in client.aliases

so you need to check if the command exists there as well

[bright hornet]

should i do console.log?

[quartz kindle]

hmm?

no, you need to do the exact same thing you're doing with client.commands but with client.aliases

or change your file loader to put the aliases in client.commands as well, and get rid of client.aliases

[bright hornet]

i have client.aliases

[boreal iron]

Yeah but you dont check if your entered command may is an alias

if(!client.commands.has(…)) return

Doesn’t check your client.aliases

[bright hornet]

ahhhh

ok ok

[bright hornet]

client.on('messageCreate', 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{
        const cmd = client.commands.get(command) || client.commands.find(a => a.aliases && a.aliases.include(cmd))
        if(cmd) cmd.execute(message, args)
    } catch(err) {
        console.log(err)
    }
});``` changed code to this, still aliases cant be used

[earnest phoenix]

I don't see a point in doing a.aliases tbh

[craggy pine]

Ok so I suck at math so I want to see another opinion:
Lets say I have 10 pages and an array that displays 5 results per page.

If I were to select lets say, page 5, result 2, how would I math the index that result it on.

I've tried a few things like let input = page === 0 ? 0 : page + 6 but that's wrong and also let input = page === 0 ? 0 : page * 5 same for that one.

Page starts at 0 since array index 0 = 1
https://scs.twilightgamez.net/pFz1Y.png

[boreal iron]

Because you still don’t check if client aliases contains your entered command

if(!client.commands.has(…)) return

If the command wasn’t found you return the event listener

[bright hornet]

if(!client.commands.has(aliases)) return;```?

[boreal iron]

Now this would only check the alias and not the command anymore

you need to check for both

If your entered command is not part your client command and not part of client aliases

Is what you need to check for

[boreal iron]

You just have to slice your array (the one which includes all results) and keep remember it’s index - your offset
First slice would be 0, 5
2nd 5, 5
3rd 10, 5
and so on

The sliced array with 5 results is the one you display

The index aka. offset is your current page number * number of results

Example:

[bright hornet]

hm

if i do this js if(!client.aliases.has(command)) return; both commands and aliases not working

[craggy pine]

if(!client.commands.has(command) && !client.commands.has(aliases))

is what he's getting at.

Or how ever you'd have to write it for your code

[bright hornet]

OHHHH

[boreal iron]

page 1: slice(0, 5)
page 2: slice(5, 5)
page 3: slice(10, 5)

The first argument of slice is your offset -> page * 5 = offset
The second argument stays 5 as you wanna display 5 results only

let limit = 5;
let offset = current_page * limit;

Only for page 1 you need to check manually as 0 * 5 would be 0

[craggy pine]

why I had the === 0 ? 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 : stuff

[boreal iron]

That’s static not dynamic

[craggy pine]

if the page # === 0 then any * 0 === 0 so manually set the index as index 0 - 4

I may be miss understanding, but I get atleast what you're saying with slice

[boreal iron]

let limit = 5;
let offset = current_page * limit;

if current page == 1 then offset = 0

all_results.slice(offset, limit)

[bright hornet]

i got new error ```js
client.on('messageCreate', 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) && !client.aliases.has(command)) return;


try{
    const cmd = client.commands.get(command) || client.commands.find(a => a.aliases && a.aliases.include(command))
    if(cmd) cmd.execute(message, args)
} catch(err) {
    console.log(err)
}

});```

a.aliases.include is not a function```

[craggy pine]

includes

not include

[bright hornet]

;-;

its working now

thanks @quartz kindle @boreal iron @craggy pine ^^

sorry for the ping, just wanted to thanks

XD

[boreal iron]

👍

[boreal iron]

Just one note to that
The second parameter for JS slice() is the index of last item end

Not the count based on the start index

[craggy pine]

I realised quickly that it was backwards in ur thing 😛

[boreal iron]

Yeah it’s differently in PHP

I forgot about that

[neat ingot]

thoughts on how best to handle 'reminders'? I am planning to save them in their own data collection, but would you periodically check that and then send out reminders, or would you set a timeout when registered (also after reboot if needed) and try to trigger at the exact time? (which is the route im considering)

[boreal iron]

To correct myself it would be:

let limit = 5;
let offset = current_page * limit;

if current page == 1 then offset = 0

result_array = all_results.slice(offset, (offset + limit))

[craggy pine]

[bright hornet]

if(message.member.roles.highest.comparePositionTo(target.roles.highest) > 1 ) return message.reply("I can't mute this person!")``` how can i use this properly? myself getting muted instead of the given person, then if i pinged the person its returning the command,

```js
if(target.roles.highest.comparePositionTo(message.member.roles.highest) > 1 ) return message.reply("I can't mute this person!")``` if i do this, even me and the bot has the same role, the bot still cant mute me

[craggy pine]

and if I'm only trying to get the 1 result from the # they select it would just be result_array[0 - 4] since only 5 results display, the array I'm grabbing has more data than what the embed shows

[boreal iron]

If you wanna display 1 result per page only then the var limit would need to be 1

[craggy pine]

I think we're confusing each other.

sec

Is it possible to fetch votes from server listings using webhook?? cause its not working

[bright hornet]

PrefixSchema.findOne({
                guildID: message.guild.id,
            }, async (err, data) => {
                if(data) {
                    data.newprefix
                    data.save()
                } else {
                    new PrefixSchema({
                        guildID: message.guild.id,
                        Prefix: newprefix
                    }).save()
                }
            })``` guildID and prefix is not saving :/ and this is the first time data not saving

[austere surge]

use findOneAndUpdate

[bright hornet]

thats for another command

[austere surge]

you are trying to find and update

why not

[bright hornet]

im showing the pic cause when im saving new data, guildID and prefix are not saving

[austere surge]

i dont think that function is supposed to be in the findOne function

you could probably do it outside some other way

[earnest phoenix]

I don't get why you are doing it this way ngl

[bright hornet]

why-

[austere surge]

i dont know if this is even possible, it looks very weird

[earnest phoenix]

I don't think you can do it that way

I haven't used mongodb in ages so don't quote me on it

[bright hornet]

my configurations looks like that, works perfectly fine

[austere surge]

i'd do it something like

  const data = await PrefixSchema.findOne({
    guildID: message.guild.id,
  });
  if(data) {
    data.newprefix;
    data.save();
  } else {
    new PrefixSchema({
      guildID: message.guild.id,
      Prefix: newprefix
    }).save();
  }

[bright hornet]

this didnt work also

[austere surge]

ok

[bright hornet]

done trying that format

which is actually weird

[austere surge]

whatre you trying to do

[bright hornet]

per guild set-prefix

[bright hornet]

saving data

[austere surge]

that couldve been one message but ok

https://tenor.com/view/dont-reply-ping-reply-ping-reply-discord-reply-discord-gif-22725442

is it really required to use console.log everytime deleting data in mongoose discordjs

[austere surge]

what

[dry imp]

not really

[wheat mesa]

Of course not, logging does not interfere whatsoever with the functionality of the database, it’s just useful for debugging

[earnest phoenix]

Can you use variables from an @each loop as selectors in sass?

nvm found it

[bright hornet]

cause if i dont use console.log the data not deleting

[earnest phoenix]

 Property 'get' in type 'ApexApplication' is not assignable to the same property in base type 'BaseApplication'.
  Type '(data: ApexData) => Promise<void>' is not assignable to type '(data: FortniteData) => Promise<FortniteResult | null>'.
    Type 'Promise<void>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<FortniteResult | null>'.
      Type 'void' is not assignable to type 'FortniteResult | null'.

9     async get(data: ApexData){

So I haven't used classes in a while so I am unsure of how I can make BaseApplication being able to have its own methods and be usable as well as having the ability to extend it and overwrite methods

[cinder patio]

overwrite modifier

[earnest phoenix]

Wait could I just give ApexApplication get method its own return type and it'd work 🤔

[cinder patio]

override*

[earnest phoenix]

I didn't know ts had that

TS2416: Property 'get' in type 'ApexApplication' is not assignable to the same property in base type 'BaseApplication'.   Type '(data: ApexData) => Promise<ApexData>' is not assignable to type '(data: FortniteData) => Promise<void>'.     Type 'Promise<ApexData>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<void>'.       Type 'ApexData' is not assignable to type 'void'

Even when using override it still won't let me overwrite the return type and such of the methods

[earnest phoenix]

imagine using ts

[sullen tartan]

let test = "hello"
event.test(/*code*/)```What did I need to do that I can use event.hello and not event.test?

[earnest phoenix]

what

[sullen tartan]

what what

[earnest phoenix]

I did not understand your question

[craggy pine]

Only thing that comes to mind is that it would be an object

well no, that wouldn't make sense either.

[craggy pine]

^ pretty much same. I don't think thats really possible

[earnest phoenix]

event[test](...);

How to make a global announcement command?

Js !

[cinder patio]

what do you mean by that

like send a message to every guild?

[sudden geyser]

You could use an announcement channel in your support server.

Which would practically have the same effect.

[wheat mesa]

That’s simply not true. console.log() is completely separate from the functions you’re using. It does not have any effect on what happens to the data

[simple stump]

I'm using SQLite3, but for some reason this method returns id and characters correctly:

async function info(id) {
    return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
        db.serialize(async function () {
            await db.get('SELECT * FROM daily WHERE id = ?', [id], function (err, rows, fields) {
                if (err) reject(err);
                if (!rows) {
                    reject(null);
                } else {
                    resolve({ "id": rows.id, "characters": rows.characters });
                }
            });
        });
    });
}

But this doesn't:

async function updateCharacters(id, character) {
    return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
        db.serialize(async function () {
            await db.get('SELECT * FROM daily WHERE id = ?', [id], function (err, rows, fields) {
                if (err) reject(err);
                if (!rows) {
                    reject(null);
                } else {
                    console.log("id: " + rows.id);
                    console.log(rows.characters);
                    resolve({ "id": rows.id, "characters": rows.characters });
                }
            });
        });
    });
}

ID is logged correctly, but rows returns undefined.

[cinder patio]

why are there two functions with the exact same body?

[hoary apex]

Yea

[cinder patio]

don't do that

[sudden geyser]

Then have them join and set up the announcement channel

[cinder patio]

[sudden geyser]

Much more natural than going through your idiosyncratic process

[hoary apex]

lol anyway can anyone help me to setup reply and typing thingy for my chatbot?

[simple stump]

For testing purposes. I keep trying different methods and changing the code, but updateCharacters always returns null.

The main purpose is to use update to update the user's characters column, but whenever I try to get data from the database rows is always undefined.

Which is strange since the info function works fine. I don't understand what the difference is.

[spark flint]

didn;t work

Have a command where they can define a channel to receive notifications, with default being none (no channel = no notifications)

Then use webhooks instead of normal messages, they're made for that

[earnest phoenix]

show css pls

[earnest phoenix]

Or do smth like dank memer: an alert command that displays recent updates when you specifically ask for it

[lyric mountain]

Or have both

[spark flint]

    .article {
        background: #2b2a2a;
        white-space: initial;
        overflow: hidden; 
        text-overflow: ellipsis;
        overflow-wrap: break-word;
        max-width:75vh;
        transition:0.3s;
    }```

i was told to try initial liek 2 mins ago

that made it use a new line

[earnest phoenix]

why do you have white-space inthe first place

[spark flint]

idk

when removed: https://capy-cdn.xyz/dJvKRNGc.png when there: https://capy-cdn.xyz/0Gz8AlX2.png
