It's better to use embed object or the MessageEmbed function? For optimisation
I mean, does it change something
sudden geyser
It's more for convenience and validity.
A MessageEmbed is turned to an embed object when it's sent, so there's no performance benefit ("optimizations") of using a MessageEmbed.
What MessageEmbed does for you, however, is give you the builder pattern so you can set properties with methods (e.g. .setTitle), so if you like that, there's a plus.
Plus, it'll run checks on each property you try altering, like if the input is too large.
I'd personally suggest using an embed object since you probably don't need the checks.

Hello i'm trying to define a variable after my guild is created into my db, but when i redefine the variable with the .then it return me undefined because the code after still running before the variable is set, but i don't know how to fix this
let guildInfo;
const createGuild = await new Guild({ id: message.guild.id });
createGuild.save().then(g => { guildInfo = g });
console.log(guildInfo) // return undefined
setTimeout(() => { console.log(guildInfo) }, 1000); // return the guildInfo
That's because calling .save() returns a promise. As in, saving the document will happen some time in the future.
You'll need to use g inside the .then block. You can't assign it to a variable like you're doing right now.
earnest phoenix
You'll need to use `g` inside the `.then` block. You can't assign it to a variab...
I dont understand how then
sudden geyser
You'll need to do what you're doing with guildInfo inside the .then(g => {...}) block.
earnest phoenix
but thats what im doing
sudden geyser
e.g.
createGuild.save().then(g => {
console.log(g); // Should have some value.
setTimeout(() => console.log(g), 1000);
});
Yeah but i really need to define the guildInfo var this is why im stuck
sudden geyser
Then you'll need to handle that scope as a promise as well.
earnest phoenix
I know but i dont understand how promise work
sudden geyser
Considering you're using await above, you could easily do:
let guildInfo = await createGuild.save();
And use it below.
Though you may want to read this guide on using promises: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Using_promises

I'm planning to make an evolution game where the child will inherit "features" (e.g. vision length, hearing, speed, aggression, strength etc) from the parents and im wondering an "inheritance" strategy
how would you compute which features to inherit and to what extent
sudden geyser
I'd create links and just store the properties that have changed on the child.
You could think of it like a linked list (as one item to points to another) or an immutable data structure (where, for efficiency, unchanged data points to the prior data structure)
But that can be harder and more costly to compute. You could easily just take the properties of some entity, change some up a bit, and return a new one without using links.
Of course, it depends on what child is anyway
cinder patio
Features should be stored in genes, you could make some genes hereditary (only from female parent, or only from male parent, or there's a chance from either of them) , others could be random mutations etc.
sudden geyser
life 2
cinder patio
Then create an array of common genes - Collect all (or maybe some) genes from both parents and possibly their parents. Then maybe have a 75% chance of the child inheriting each of those genes, but allow for some randomness and create mutations of some genes. (Also you could disallow some genes based on some stats of the child OR what genes they already have)
marble juniper
Sounds hella complex already
cinder patio
You could also implement dominant and recessive genes but yeah
earnest phoenix
what have i stumbled upon
split hazel
You could also implement dominant and recessive genes but yeah
yeah what im planning#
so i will have random mutations
and make up a huge index of genes
and then randomly assign 'recessive' or 'dominant' to the gene
my only problem lies is there a better way of inheriting value based features
such as speed
i could simply go "fast", "very fast", "slow", "very slow" but thats kinda repetitive
modest maple
split hazel
or i can just randomly generate the set of speeds lmao
yeah i'll do that
for value based genes i'll generate a large variation of them
modest maple
Worst case you can do randomness with bias / weighting
or something like a custom seed
split hazel
yeah sounds good
will also implement disease genes which make you die after 5 minutes or whatever

I'm trying to print out the value between two dates: one that is stored in a SQLite database, and the current time. However, when printing out seconds I get 0.821 which doesn't seem right at all.
console.log(curTime);
console.log(parseInt(rows.lastDaily));
let diffTime = curTime - parseInt(rows.lastDaily);
let seconds = diffTime / 1000 / 60;
let minutes = seconds / 60;
let hours = minutes / 60;
let days = hours / 24;
resolve({ "seconds": seconds, "minutes": minutes, "hours": hours, "days": days });

generateToken(id: string): string {
return `${Buffer.from(id, 'base64')}.${Buffer.from(Date.now().toString(), 'base64',

}
this is how I generated the tokens
I didn't know how to generate the HMAC thing but you basically told me it was random junk before so I just decided to encode a randomUUID

idk depends on what you are doing and what you think args is

For the Date.now(), you need to subtract that value by the Discord Epoch
earnest phoenix
Why?
lament rock
Buffer.from((Date.now() - 1293840000).toString()).toString("base64");
lament rock
to decode, it's an int, then you add the Discord epoch to that int and you have a unix timestamp of when the token was created
Oh
Thought you were trying to replicate Discord's system. mb
earnest phoenix
I mean I am but it is separate from discord
I will subtract later when I release a stable version of this website to do it properly
lament rock
Then you should use your own Epoch :)
earnest phoenix
Then you should use your own Epoch :)
ye how do you get an epoch btw?
lament rock
It's just a timestamp represented as an int

So basically I just take Date.now() save that value in the code somewhere and subtract Date.now() by that?
boreal iron
Is it possible to get user votes for a server listing?
3rd time this answer is presented to you

Yeah
but you can set the timestamp to any value if you can get it via the Date constructor

You're absolutely right about JSON being widely adopted and ngl I was about to use it too but XML is just fancy and old school. Also, making my own format would be very cool but then I'll have to write a encoder/decoder for every language which is just too much work

so after x messages return and fetch again
wooden ember
mmm
plucky imp
if the id's are stored properly you can jus check if you have the message id already
like are you py or js?
wooden ember
true but i dont want to fetch the same msgs orver and over cuz thats a wast of resources and will probably get me rate limited id asume
im using JS
plucky imp
okay so like
plucky imp
async function lots_of_messages_getter(channel, limit = 500) {
const sum_messages = [];
let last_id;
while (true) {
const options = { limit: 100 };
if (last_id) {
options.before = last_id;
}
const messages = await message.channel.cache.get(options);
sum_messages.push(...messages.array());
last_id = messages.last().id;
if (messages.size != 100 || sum_messages >= limit) {
break;
}
}
return sum_messages;
}
idk if it's still like that tho
it's a basic idea though
plucky imp
true lol
split hazel
if it gets the job done it doesn't matter too much
plucky imp
also true
wooden ember
yeah but i dont want to spam discord with requests
plucky imp
you can use a if(!) statement there i'd assume
wooden ember
yeah
cuz this is how my mate did it with his bot
async def index_servers(self):
status = self.loop.create_task(
self.wait("Indexing Servers")
)
index = {}
for category_id in self.config["category_ids"]:
category = self.get_channel(category_id)
if not category:
print(f"Couldn't get the category under ID {category_id}")
continue
index[category.name.lower()] = {
channel.name.lower(): {
msg.content.split("\n")[0].replace("__**", "").replace("**__", ""): msg.content.split("\n")[1]
for msg in list(await channel.history().flatten())
if msg.content.count("\n") and msg.content.count("discord.gg")
}
for channel in category.text_channels

self.index = index

```but its in python and all my crap is in jsalso the context of the bot is for a discord server that is an archive of many discord links
earnest phoenix
I think the crap should be python not js
wooden ember
yeah but tell that to 2020 me where i couldnt get py to work on my laptop so i just started using js and thats how i got into this state
plucky imp
true
good code tho
if i eval my token it returns my token and im scared please halp
earnest phoenix
yeah but tell that to 2020 me where i couldnt get py to work on my laptop so i j...
I meant python was crap and I respect your decision for switching to js
wooden ember
i do wish i persued py more though cuz unlike js its actually usefull for many things (yes i know js has its uses but they aren't anything i can see myself doing)
plucky imp
i don't feel like recoding it
wooden ember
I meant python was crap and I respect your decision for switching to js
oh fair enouhg
misread
wooden ember
but even then i would rather c# or somthing over python
plucky imp
when i do -eval tokem it returns my token but when i do -eval tokem return; it sends the "i don't have a token" message
pog gamer moment
earnest phoenix
but even then i would rather c# or somthing over python
That is even better than js
earnest phoenix
But the bottom line is anything > js >>>>> php >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> python
sudden geyser
you should just accept that eval is dangerous but useful
plucky imp
yeah
wooden ember
indeed
plucky imp
i think it only returns my token cause of my id but i'll check
i think all my cmds work besides my spotify and urban ones but there not that important so hopefully when i submit it they won't count it off
earnest phoenix
I love how people panic over owner locked commands
plucky imp
no it's not owner locked lmao that's why i ws scareD
wooden ember
unless its not owner locked
sudden geyser
better safe than sorry they said
wooden ember
of fuck
sudden geyser
it'll be fine they said
plucky imp
the exec command is cause the eval is setup so it only checks over the code it doesn't run it
earnest phoenix
no it's not owner locked lmao that's why i ws scareD
why tho
plucky imp
exec however does both so if i typed in client.destroy() it would restart but in the eval it'll just return the function
earnest phoenix
cause i'm a flaze wanna be
And it just so happens @pale vessel knows how to make a public eval
sudden geyser
what about that sandbox built-in module
plucky imp
yes i was there when he made it lol
earnest phoenix
he
wooden ember
how to get free bot hosting:

plucky imp
i wasted 500$ just to get 30*% in genshin and no soft pity lol
wooden ember
i mean id say that cheep vps' are a scam tbh cuz my crap dell from 2006 costs a fiver a month to run
and you get dedicated hardware
plucky imp
oouu
wooden ember
the only bad thing is you have to do your owen maintinance and thus you get more downtime
but eh
plucky imp
if you can maintain it on your own it means you've mastered it
which is why i code so much >.<
wooden ember
fair
wooden ember
damn
plucky imp
i have over 9k lines \
wooden ember
i dont think i have that on all my bots combined tbh
plucky imp
i overcomplicate alot though
wooden ember
but then most of them are spesualised and i just add the same commands to all of them just as filler
plucky imp
it would be like 3k but i made the cmd handler myself so i went over the top
to make it flashy
i have like 50 args statements
11 of them are in my help cmd
wooden ember
i remember i made an error handler that was bigger than the bot it was connected to once
had verbose levels and everything
plucky imp
relateable
plucky imp
i gotta add 4 more categorys
wooden ember
most of my bots dont even use embeds tbh
plucky imp
i wanna add like reaction embeds but i've tried before and i don't feel like recoding my help cmd
plucky imp
most of my bots dont even use embeds tbh
oh

Have you tried making a second server, giving your bot no other perms than basic everyone permissions and seeing if it responds?

If it was a intent error it'd be like can't access or missing permission right?
The Discord API won't throw errors if you have few intents which are enough to run the bot, especially when you're accessing data you don't actually have access to, the reason it's not sending anything is because it doesn't even pass the if statement conditional, as I've said, you need those intents

Pain in the ass. Can fetching the application directly from Discord API via client.api.applications() be an alternative solution?

Could be, although it may not work, because there are edge cases where this can happen

Do I blame Discord or d.js in those edge cases?

i thought i already enabled my intents but i guess i didn't save my changed
earnest phoenix
Both are kinda blamable in this case, best to listen to the debug and warn event listeners to find out
I haven't seen much people encountering this issue

The Discord bot can join the VC and log that it is playing correctly, but nothing gets played.

This is what resource logs after the message, "The audio player has started playing!"

earnest phoenix
Show code
plucky imp
if (command === "lyrics") {
let songs = args.join(" ")
if (!songs) return message.channel.send('No song lyrics to search');
const searches = await Client.songs.search(songs);
let firstSong = searches[0]
const lyrics = await firstSong.lyrics();
if (!lyrics) return message.channel.send('No lyrics found');
let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor("RANDOM")
.setAuthor(client.user.username, client.user.displayAvatarURL())
.setDescription(`Lyrics of the Song:\n\n ${lyrics}`)
message.channel.send(embed);
}
im using the genius api btw
plucky imp
const Genius = require("genius-lyrics");
const Client = new Genius.Client(config.api);
ues
it is lol
earnest phoenix
```js
if (command === "lyrics") {
let songs = args.join(" ")
if (!songs)...
Hmm, I suppose the song that is being searched may include characters that may be invalid to search, try searching another song or multiple songs and see if any of them succeeds
plucky imp
okey

Give Sabaton songs a try!
