development

[dry imp]

do it on on_message function under msg declaration

[quartz kindle]

see? everything i said holds true

you were doing the wrong thing all this time

and refusing to show us

[fossil bone]

.-.

bruh

bruuuuuuuuuuh

[sharp geyser]

How da heck do I make a ready event request thingy

[quartz kindle]

just log the websocket output

[sharp geyser]

I am but not getting anything back

[quartz kindle]

you will receive more stuff as soon as you send the identify

[sharp geyser]

I sent the indentify but I get nothing back after

[quartz kindle]

then you're doing something wrong

show cod

[sharp geyser]

ws.on('message', (message) => {
    const data = JSON.parse(message.toString())
    console.log(data)
    
    switch (data.op){
        case GatewayOpcodes.Hello:
            const heartbeat_interval = data.d.heartbeat_interval;
            ws.send(JSON.stringify({
                op: GatewayOpcodes.Heartbeat,
                d: heartbeat_interval
            }))
            break;
        case GatewayOpcodes.HeartbeatAck:
            console.log(data)
            break;
        case GatewayOpcodes.Identify:
            ws.send(JSON.stringify({
                op: GatewayOpcodes.Identify,
                d: {
                    token: 'discord yelled at me not to send it',
                    intents: 513,
                    properties: {
                        "$os": "win32",
                        "$browser": "strife",
                        "$device": "strife"
                    }
                }
            }))
            break;
    }
})

[quartz kindle]

they dont send you identify

you have to send them

[sharp geyser]

Ah wait you right

So should I send it when I get an acknowledged heartbeat?

[quartz kindle]

this is what they send you

those are the things you make a case for

everything else its you that has to send

[sharp geyser]

I see, so I assume i would send the indentify when they acknowledge my heartbeat right?

[quartz kindle]

you can send an identify right after you receive the hello

[sharp geyser]

gotcha

too big

:^)

but ye it worked thanks tim :)

[quartz kindle]

also your heartbeating is wrong

[sharp geyser]

oh?

[fossil bone]

anyway got any other solutions?

[quartz kindle]

in the d key you have to send the sequence number, not the interval

[fossil bone]

i did what u asked me to do

[quartz kindle]

everything you receive after hello, will have a sequence number here

the first heartbeat you can send d: null, but every heartbeat after that, you have to send the sequence number of the last packet you received

[fossil bone]

ok sorry to interrupt

i'll just show myself out 🙂

[quartz kindle]

and the heartbeat_interval you use to create a setInterval to send a heartbeat every x time

[sharp geyser]

ah

            setInterval(() => {
                ws.send(JSON.stringify({
                    op: GatewayOpcodes.Heartbeat,
                    d: data.s
                }))
            }, data.d.heartbeat_interval)

so it would essentially be this?

[quartz kindle]

you showed this but didnt show what this printed

[fossil bone]

i deserve this

it fkn prints nothing

nada

[quartz kindle]

basically yes, but you have to store data.s somewhere

[fossil bone]

pls understand it needs a pulsee to work

without a pulse it won't print anything

[quartz kindle]

for example js if(data.s > sequence) { sequence = data.s; } then ```js
d: sequence

[fossil bone]

🙂

[quartz kindle]

and store sequence somewhere

[sharp geyser]

Could I use a map or something similar then?

or would it not matter just putting it in a variable

[quartz kindle]

doesnt really matter where you store it

[fossil bone]

ok i'm thinking of using javascript

[quartz kindle]

if later on you make it into a class, you will store it in the class somewhere

[fossil bone]

can one use csv with javascript?

[quartz kindle]

like this.sequence

[quartz kindle]

sure

[fossil bone]

ok

[sharp geyser]

Yea I plan on using classes I am just trying to get a basic understanding of the gateway right now :^)

[dry imp]

good choice

[fossil bone]

recommend it for me?

[sharp geyser]

My issue later on though will be how I wanna structure the package when I actually start going for it

[fossil bone]

like best programming language for discord bots?

[solemn latch]

most devs here are js devs, so we will recommend js.

[sharp geyser]

there is no "best" language

[quartz kindle]

at this point i would recommend using botghost or discord bot maker

lmao

[solemn latch]

its probably best to not ask this community alone, but multiple communities, or do your own research

[wheat mesa]

wrong

[dry imp]

no, both will fuck you up so its twice the fun

[wheat mesa]

anything but python is the best language

[fossil bone]

ok but it's like a sea i mean i'd need a lot to do anything with it

[dry imp]

what lang do u know?

[quartz kindle]

let me guess, nada?

[fossil bone]

i made a dumb bot with js before but i had to torture some one for it and he almost dioed

so i decided to try python

[quartz kindle]

lord almighty

[fossil bone]

now i need another sould for my bot

soul

[dry imp]

so... you decided to learn bot dev before learning the language?

[fossil bone]

lol

[solemn latch]

my general reccomendation is do 2-5 small other projects and maybe 1-2 big projects with a language before bot development

[fossil bone]

i work at a leather company i usually erase my memory every once or twice a month so i lose some knowledge of whatev language i know

[quartz kindle]

start with a calculator that has every answer hardcoded

[solemn latch]

o

[lament rock]

A bot was how I learned to code. Was a pain in the ass, but I turned out okay. Didn't really bother with basic language issues either so I'm kinda proud

[solemn latch]

my favorite project!

[fossil bone]

i know C C++ and python but my memory is like RAM

[dry imp]

wwhat

[quartz kindle]

x doubt

[fossil bone]

'-'

i made websites

[solemn latch]

websites are mostly markup though

not an actual programming language.

[fossil bone]

then i deleted them because i hosted them in an indian website

[earnest phoenix]

https://github.com/AceLewis/my_first_calculator.py/blob/master/my_first_calculator.py

[fossil bone]

done that

i'm good at programming i just have to store my memory every where and explain to me what i stored because after i sleep i lose some memory of what i've done

[sharp geyser]

[wheat mesa]

programming isn't about memory

[fossil bone]

-_-

[wheat mesa]

programming is about knowing how to use your tools to solve complex problems

[sharp geyser]

which I don't ^

[dry imp]

using google is not a shame

you dont need to remember everyhing

[wheat mesa]

90% problem solving, 5% IDE suggestions, 105% stackoverflow, 5% memorizing syntax

(we're not good at math)

[fossil bone]

i rather ask the humans

[solemn latch]

google is very pog

[fossil bone]

i don't always use google

[sharp geyser]

@quartz kindle I have question

[fossil bone]

but i do tho

[wheat mesa]

google should be your first resource when you have a question

[sharp geyser]

If I am sending an indentify every heartbeat ack will that fuck shit up?

[wheat mesa]

when your question becomes too obscure or complex to ask google, that's when you ask other people

[austere surge]

i believe reaching 1000 identifies in a day resets the token

so probably

[sharp geyser]

I don't think that is entirely true here

[spark flint]

use mr.potato-milk's calculator to help you

[sharp geyser]

Actually nvm ye you right

[fossil bone]

anyway thnx for your trying to help i'll find me another apprach to it

[wheat mesa]

by the way, I'm working on a framework in Java for making CLI commands quickly and reliably, how does this look? ```java
@TextCommand(
name = "test"
)
public class TestCommand extends BaseCommand implements DisposableArguments {
static class TestCommandArgs {
public String name;
public int age;
}

private TestCommandArgs parsedArgs = new TestCommandArgs();

public TestCommand() {
    super("test");
}

@Override
public void run(String[] args) throws CommandException {
    parseArgs(args);
    System.out.println(
            "You used the "
                    + getName()
                    + " command. Your name is "
                    + parsedArgs.name
                    + ". Your age is "
                    + parsedArgs.age
                    + ".");
}

@Override
public String getDescription() {
    return "A test command.";
}

private void parseArgs(String[] args) throws CommandException {
    args = CommandUtils.removeEmptyArgs(args);

    if(args.length < 2) {
        throw new CommandException("Too few arguments provided.");
    }

    parsedArgs.name = args[0];
    if(CommandUtils.tryParseInt(args[1])) {
        parsedArgs.age = Integer.parseInt(args[1]);
    } else {
        throw new CommandException("Second argument must be a valid integer value.");
    }

}

@Override
public void disposeArguments() {
    this.parsedArgs = new TestCommandArgs();
}

}

[sharp geyser]

absolute ass

[wheat mesa]

you look like absolute ass misty

[sharp geyser]

ok woah

[fossil bone]

btw if you noticed the -,*,/,+ are the ones needed in a calculator so a smart person would recognize that i was trying to made a bot that is able to do calculations, the code for that is already done i needed to make sure the bot would recognize the operators in a message to understand that the user is trying to make a calculation and thus helpin them(the user) out

but i'll go the hard way for that as usual

[quartz kindle]

dude just use loops then

[fossil bone]

the hard way always works

[quartz kindle]

for each character in the string, check if it equals one of those operators

you dont need to overcomplicate it if you're having trouble getting it to work

just do it as simply as you can

the way you know how

[fossil bone]

i wanted something new something less lines of coding

now i have to do it that way

[wheat mesa]

loops... make it so you have less lines...

[fossil bone]

the old boring way

[sharp geyser]

tim I think I am doing something majorly wrong

[wheat mesa]

you could write a full on recursive descent parser and have more lines of code instead if you'd prefer :^)

[sharp geyser]

giving them too much credit waffle

[quartz kindle]

also less lines does not necessarily mean more performance

[fossil bone]

there are 4 operators so not very much less lines

[earnest phoenix]

Smaller != Better

[solemn latch]

honestly, I often code with more lines intentionally

[wheat mesa]

enjoy writing if statements when your operators expand into double digits

there's probably hundreds of mathematical operators out there

write more lines now, write less later

much easier

[sharp geyser]

let seq = null;

ws.on('message', (message) => {
    const data = JSON.parse(message.toString())
    console.log(data)

    switch (data.op){
        case GatewayOpcodes.Hello:
            setInterval(() => {
                ws.send(JSON.stringify({
                    op: GatewayOpcodes.Heartbeat,
                    d: data.s
                }))
            }, data.d.heartbeat_interval)
            break;
        case GatewayOpcodes.HeartbeatAck:
            console.log(data)
            if(data.s < seq) {
                seq = data.s
            }
            if(seq === null) {
                ws.send(JSON.stringify({
                    op: GatewayOpcodes.Identify,
                    d: {
                        token: 'dasd',
                        intents: 513,
                        properties: {
                            "$os": "win32",
                            "$browser": "strife",
                            "$device": "strife"
                        }
                    }
                }))
            }
            break;
    }
})

So I think this is failing to do what I meant it to do. It seems like every heartbeat ack it is sending the indentify (unless discord just ignores any after the initial identify)

[earnest phoenix]

[fossil bone]

i'm not making a bot called fuckery for science students thanks lol

[wheat mesa]

case and point

[wheat mesa]

you know, believe it or not, a lot of people use more than just the 4 most basic operators 😉

[quartz kindle]

yes thats very wrong

[wheat mesa]

unlucky

[sharp geyser]

ye waffle

you are very wrong

get good

[wheat mesa]

totally didn't mean to reply to misty

[fossil bone]

anyway i'll come back to ask how to fetch so good quality pics from REddit subs lol so be prepared for future me :p

some*

[sharp geyser]

or just dont

:)

[wheat mesa]

fetch some bitches misty

[sharp geyser]

ok one pump chump

[sharp geyser]

Wait what

[fossil bone]

js is a headache x-x

[sharp geyser]

so are you saying during the Hello I should make the indentify ?

[quartz kindle]

you send the identify right after you receive hello, you dont need to wait for heartbeats

and sequences have to be recorded on every packet

[sharp geyser]

Ah

[quartz kindle]

not acks

you dont really need acks for anything basically

they're just there to confirm your heartbeat was received

also

[sharp geyser]

right also

[quartz kindle]

and data.s > seq

not < seq

[sharp geyser]

is there a reason it responds twice with the heartbeat ack?

[quartz kindle]

because you console.log it twice

[sharp geyser]

Right :^)

I forgor about that one

[sharp geyser]

You said the sequence number would change when receiving the heartbeat ack right?

Does it just increment or is it a random one every time?

[quartz kindle]

it increments on every single packet after hello

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm

Then it seems to be stuck on 2

[quartz kindle]

because you stop receiving? or did you receive multiple packets with the same sequence (which is not possible)?

[sharp geyser]

Well I am still receiving the heartbeat ack every 41 seconds roughly

so that means it should increment right?

[quartz kindle]

pretty sure acks dont count

[sharp geyser]

Mmm I thought they would

[quartz kindle]

they are a reponse to something you sent

the sequence is for stuff discord sends

[sharp geyser]

gotcha

[quartz kindle]

did you receive a READY after sending the identify?

[sharp geyser]

Yea

[quartz kindle]

then from there on you should start receiving data

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm there must be some data I am not known about since the seq should be 1 if that was the case right?

[quartz kindle]

what are you seeing in your data?

like guilds, messages, etc

[sharp geyser]

I am just seeing the initial heartbeat interval thing and getting back the ready event with a s of 1

[quartz kindle]

and nothing else after that?

[sharp geyser]

actually yea fucking webstorm displayed it weird

I am noticing a guild create

[quartz kindle]

so yeah each of those should have an increasing sequence

[sharp geyser]

Gotcha

This is starting to get fun now that I am starting to understand it more

[quartz kindle]

:)

[sharp geyser]

So how do logins work?

like do you know what djs does with the login method they have?

I assume it is something separate from the indentify or am I wrong?

[quartz kindle]

nah, its just the identify and setting up the sequences/heartbeats/etc

the login method creates a new WebsocketShard instance, if it doesnt exist yet

then the WebsocketShard instance connects to /gateway/bot

then connects to websocket

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm

[quartz kindle]

and identifies

[sharp geyser]

Sounds like a lot

[quartz kindle]

and sets up the sequences and heartbeats to keep alive

as well as all the shit to reconnect/resume/etc

the READY event has an array of guild ids

those guilds are added to the guild cache as unavailable guilds

then it receives a bunch of GUILD_CREATE events

that will fill up the data for the guilds in the cache

after all guilds are accounted for, it emits the client ready event

[sharp geyser]

omfg

that is a headache

:^)

[quartz kindle]

if you use internal sharding

basically do the same, but with multiple websocket instances

[dry imp]

so much words and letter

[quartz kindle]

if you're lazy feel free to steal my websocket code lel

[sharp geyser]

 async connect() {
    const invalidToken = new Error(WSCodes[4004]);
    const {
      url: gatewayURL,
      shards: recommendedShards,
      session_start_limit: sessionStartLimit,
    } = await this.client.api.gateway.bot.get().catch(error => {
      throw error.httpStatus === 401 ? invalidToken : error;
    });

    const { total, remaining } = sessionStartLimit;

    this.debug(`Fetched Gateway Information
    URL: ${gatewayURL}
    Recommended Shards: ${recommendedShards}`);

    this.debug(`Session Limit Information
    Total: ${total}
    Remaining: ${remaining}`);

    this.gateway = `${gatewayURL}/`;

    let { shards } = this.client.options;

    if (shards === 'auto') {
      this.debug(`Using the recommended shard count provided by Discord: ${recommendedShards}`);
      this.totalShards = this.client.options.shardCount = recommendedShards;
      shards = this.client.options.shards = Array.from({ length: recommendedShards }, (_, i) => i);
    }

    this.totalShards = shards.length;
    this.debug(`Spawning shards: ${shards.join(', ')}`);
    this.shardQueue = new Set(shards.map(id => new WebSocketShard(this, id)));

    return this.createShards();
  }

so this is what djs does when using the login method

[quartz kindle]

yup

[sharp geyser]

Mmm I don't really wanna model after djs tho

I guess I should start actually developing this library though

[quartz kindle]

sure

you still need to add the resuming stuff

[sharp geyser]

Yea I will figure that out as I go

[fossil bone]

IT WORKS

IT FUCKING WORKS

T^T

[quartz kindle]

congrats

[sharp geyser]

Well fuck I am stumped on what I should do first when actually making the WebsocketManager

😔

love it when I know what to do but now how i should do it

[quartz kindle]

if you wanna go straight into internal sharding, first step is connect to /gateay/bot

[fossil bone]

i can't believe i could do it all this time if i didn't just be stupid to try stupid new things

[quartz kindle]

then create multiple websockets

[sharp geyser]

wtf

[fossil bone]

lol

[sharp geyser]

my shit got deleted

[fossil bone]

seen that

[sharp geyser]

BRUH

@lost berry why my stuff being deleted

;c

[fossil bone]

it's not deleted for all tho

some still can see it

like mods looooool

[sharp geyser]

I bet it is probably some scam protection thing

yep

[fossil bone]

yea prolly cuz you sent like 100 code in one night

one of them must've been like .-. this dude

[sharp geyser]

nah it is likely cause some bot is noticing a discord link and thinks it is a scam link

[lost berry]

uhhh

lemme see

well our scam bot would've kicked you

im not really sure what happened ngl

[fossil bone]

RIP X'D

[sharp geyser]

It deletes the link when I send it

[quartz kindle]

wait you have a scam bot that auto kicks?

[sharp geyser]

it is just the gateway link

[quartz kindle]

what if i post a scam link as a joke

[fossil bone]

X'D

[sharp geyser]

well tim this is what I was trying to do at first but realized doing the websocket like this might not work in the long run and will just get annoying

import { EventEmitter } from 'node:events'
import WebSocket = require("ws");
export class WebsocketManager extends EventEmitter {
    private sequence = null;
    public ws = new WebSocket('gatewaylink/gateway/bot?v=9&encoding=json')

    constructor() {
        super();
    }

    async connect() {
        
    }
}

[lost berry]

yea we use zerotwo to protect against all of those scam messages

[quartz kindle]

i would initialize ws as null

since you will need to destroy it and recreate it when resuming for example

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm

See I tried looking at your tiny-discord code and it all looked very confusing

:^)

[quartz kindle]

xD

[lament rock]

I actually wouldn't recommend trying to make your own gateway implementation and instead just rely on some low level module like cloudstorm or tiny-discord or detritus ws module

Not because I want you to use one of them specifically, but because it's really difficult

[quartz kindle]

but thats kinda why its fun

[lament rock]

Kinda yeah

[quartz kindle]

but well, also annoying af

[sharp geyser]

I wanna do it all myself for the learning experience

I wouldn't be making my own discord lib if I didn't wanna learn how the internals work

[quartz kindle]

its fun at the beginning, but then it gets annoying when you're just hunting and patching flaws and edge cases and connection issues

[sharp geyser]

so what is this tim

        const req = request({
            hostname: this.url,
            path: path,
            headers: {
                "Connection": "Upgrade",
                "Upgrade": "websocket",
                "Sec-WebSocket-Key": key,
                "Sec-WebSocket-Version": "13",
            }
        });

you seem to make a request to smth

[quartz kindle]

i made my own ws

[sharp geyser]

I see

[quartz kindle]

thats basically part of whe websocket spec

[lament rock]

Websockets are just http requests, but the connection isn't destroyed

[quartz kindle]

to verify that the websocket is conforming to the rules

[sharp geyser]

I see

[quartz kindle]

that code is basically useless

because the only target host is discord, and they would never not conform to those rules

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm makes sense

[quartz kindle]

i mean

this part

[lament rock]

Discord might go under and someone steal their domain

[quartz kindle]

this will basically never fire

but since it only happens once per connection its not really a meaningful performance hit

so i let it be

[quartz kindle]

if you're looking at tiny-discord and using ws you can basically skip those parts

and go straight to _processMessage()

[fossil bone]

ok so how's everyone doing? :^)

should i say or should i not

🙂

ich habe a new error

[quartz kindle]

thats not the full thing, but from the looks of it you got cloudflare banned

wait about 1 hour and try again

[fossil bone]

O.O

it's

i can't live another hour

[quartz kindle]

go sleep

[fossil bone]

no

this is not related to my job but i want to do it

for fun

my sanity like the speedy NFT says lol

what have i done?

i feel like y'all escaping me lol

understandable

have a good night

i just added my calculator to the code and got cloudflare banned -_-

[solemn latch]

Is it possible you got a restart loop?

[fossil bone]

no but it's possible that god hates me

the only loop i added is the if / elif loop

and that too has an exit

maybe if i make it in a different class method and call it's result by the return in a different function

maybe that's what could be making it loop when a calculation is triggered

can't believe i'm the only one using python in this godforesaken website -_-

[quartz kindle]

no matter what you do, it will not stop erroring until the ban is lifted

[fossil bone]

yeah i'm also waiting for that

10 mins till the hour ends

[sharp geyser]

what does processFrame do?

[quartz kindle]

basically what ws does for you

[sharp geyser]

I see

[quartz kindle]

the websocket protocol has its own opcodes and stuff

[sharp geyser]

so essentially I would just model after _processMessage?

[quartz kindle]

yup

[fossil bone]

ok i'm bored now fr braincrush.exe has been executed

i still got the same error like wtf now

aren't there calculator bots in discord? or is using a calculator forbidden in here

because i'm so moving on to the next step if so

i still got other plans to do

[dry imp]

replit issue, do kill 1 on shell

[wheat mesa]

why would they be forbidden?

there's lots of calculator bots

but most of them use a 3rd party api like wolframalpha to do their calculations

[austere surge]

i once made a calculator out of buttons when they were introduced

though it broke

[dry imp]

hosting in replit is like playing russian roulette, never know when it will fuck u up

[fossil bone]

wait

one sec

it didn't show the error

[dry imp]

thays good then

[sharp geyser]

Why do you make a timeout then a interval when sending the heartbeat?

[fossil bone]

yea the return fuction i wrote isn't being called but at least that's one step forward

[dry imp]

do kill 1 every time there is a rate limit

[fossil bone]

it's not showing the calculations

[dry imp]

let the other suffer for your api abuse

[fossil bone]

i knew programming is reason of violence

[quartz kindle]

thats what they ask you to do, although they are not strict about it, nothing will happen if you dont

After receiving Opcode 10 Hello, the client may begin sending Opcode 1 Heartbeat payloads after heartbeat_interval * jitter milliseconds (where jitter is a random value between 0 and 1), and every heartbeat_interval milliseconds thereafter. You may send heartbeats before this interval elapses, but you should avoid doing so unless necessary. There is already tolerance in the heartbeat_interval that will cover network latency, so you do not need to account for it in your own implementation - waiting the precise interval will suffice.

[fossil bone]

always must kill1 for code to work lol

[dry imp]

killing your container

[fossil bone]

XD

[quartz kindle]

they do that to randomize the timings for people to send their heartbeats and spread the load a bit more

[fossil bone]

and i was going to knock on my neighbors for code sacrifices hehe

[dry imp]

if you can automate that, there wont be any rate limit forever

[sharp geyser]

ah ok

I notice you set a lot of internal stuff

I should probably do the same

[quartz kindle]

not all of it is strictly necessary

[sharp geyser]

Ima just do the stuff I think is necessary

like the connectedAt, readyAt heartbeatInterval lastAck and such

[quartz kindle]

yeah, some stuff i might remove later, like the last sent and last received

[sharp geyser]

How do you think I should handle events?

like messageCreate guildCreate etc

[quartz kindle]

handle how? like creating structures like djs does?

[fossil bone]

fuck yeah

[sharp geyser]

Yea, I wanna make it as easy as possible for people to be able to use events

[fossil bone]

now i can go sleep T^T

[sharp geyser]

I was actually thinking of in this library bulding a build in event handler and command handler ya know

[quartz kindle]

you will need to look into djs since i dont use them

[sharp geyser]

Well really all I need to do is find a way to effectively make a event handler

[quartz kindle]

start by thinking what you would like to have if you were to use that event

[fossil bone]

ok turns out for some reason it's a little stupid can't count past ten but i'll look it over tomorrow

[sharp geyser]

Wdym?

[fossil bone]

weird

[quartz kindle]

like if you were to make a bot with your lib

what would you want the lib to do for you

[fossil bone]

to get dressed

[quartz kindle]

how would you want it to handle the events for you

[fossil bone]

not be visible to all devs lol

[sharp geyser]

Well I am trying to make a lib that is easy for beginners so I would like it to handle majority of the processing for me and just return the data for that event

[quartz kindle]

then do that

[fossil bone]

ok good night y'all :p

[quartz kindle]

log the event from discord and see what you can do with it

good night

[sharp geyser]

alrighty

I might take a rest here soon too I got school tmrw

[quartz kindle]

👍

[fossil bone]

Almost forgotten lol

I'm gonna come back tomorrow to ask how to fetch images and posts from Reddit

So be prepared hehe

Y'all gonna be like oh fuck. This python dude again

[dry imp]

search for asyncpraw

or redditeasy

[fossil bone]

Tag me on this so i remember tomorrow

[sharp geyser]

or just write it down

:^)

[fossil bone]

Copied to the keyboard 👍

Still can't believe it took me 30mins to write the code but a full night to run it

A whole night on discord to get it running T^T

[dry imp]

skill issue

[fossil bone]

Could've been worst if i just copy pasted it to the bot without testing the bot's capability of detecting all the operators '+,-,/,*'

[fossil bone]

Yeah ik that's why i in the end had to work it out on my own 😂

[fossil bone]

Good night you too 😁

[lyric mountain]

Please, just write + - / *

It's weird that u keep writing as a single string

[wheat mesa]

Just make it an array

15 thousand times easier

[wary minnow]

Help

[sharp geyser]

Unable to help

You provide no question, error or code

[fossil bone]

Did you even sleep? o.o

[split hazel]

bro was legit here before I went to sleep

which was 8 hours ago

[lament rock]

step 1: be an insomniac
step 2:

[fossil bone]

Lol

[tidal nymph]

I started disabling some d.js caching and its actually less memory usage

[slender thistle]

Took me 2 hours to make a page with a navbar that has a dropdown

We all have our struggles, it's okay

[thick pebble]

Same

[thick pebble]

What catching have you disabled?

[tidal nymph]

alot, like message, user, reaction, guild related, thread, voice state, etc..

depends on what your bot does I guess

[valid sierra]

hi, i am facing a problem with the permissions for my bot
it can't add a role

• Bot's role higher than the role
• Bot's role higher than the member's role
• Bot has admin or manage role permissions
  Yet i still face this issue

  File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 375, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/container/griselda_blanco.py", line 153, in on_message
    await _function.voteFunction(int(userID))
  File "/home/container/griselda_blanco_cogs/functions.py", line 70, in voteFunction
    await member.add_roles(role)
  File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/member.py", line 1012, in add_roles
    await req(guild_id, user_id, role.id, reason=reason)
  File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/http.py", line 495, in request
    raise Forbidden(response, data)
discord.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50001): Missing Access```

[quartz kindle]

missing access is not a permission issue

it means your bot is trying to access something that it has no access for, or was deleted

for example trying to access a guild your bot is not in, or trying to access a channel that your bot cant see

[rustic nova]

seems to not be able to access something on a member, are you trying to direct-message a user when voting?

since you're calling add_roles too, is the member on the guild to begin with? is the bot also there?

[dry imp]

okay guys i have a question

is js easy?

[earnest phoenix]

https://uploadi.ng/FAX0zHsE
how can i fix it
i have form and i want from form user details and form data to mongodb

i want to have all data in one collection form data & user details

[lyric mountain]

easy is subjective

it goes from person to person

[quartz kindle]

easier than py in my opinion

but i never used py so im biased

:^)

[quartz kindle]

what is profile?

[fossil bone]

js isn't about easy it's a sea, u can never really say i got good at js because there's always something u didn't know yet, but it's not a bad language because you can achieve lots with it there's always more than a way to do anything with js unlike other languages that u only have one way only to do something, however it always requires a big number of lines to do the simplest thing.

or so i heard 😗

[lyric mountain]

that defines pretty much any language

more than a way to do anything with js unlike other languages that u only have one way
except for this, there are NO languages where there's only 1 way to do something

[quartz kindle]

the very requirement for something to be a programming language is the ability to do anything, including producing and running a copy of itself, so by default all languages can do anything in an infinite number of ways

[lyric mountain]

regex is turing complete

[wary minnow]

@spark flint sorry for the ping but which api key i can use in a music bot for lyrics

Earlier it was ksoft api

[lyric mountain]

with a bit of scrapping, https://www.lyrics.com/lyrics_api.php

[wary minnow]

O thnks man

[split hazel]

tf is a semaphore

[lyric mountain]

a traffic light but for code

[split hazel]

i need to implement it and its the first time i've seen it

is it so threads do things in a specific sequential order

[wary minnow]

@lyric mountain but how to get the key please tell me that also

[lyric mountain]

not necessarily "sequential" as in a semaphore doesn't guarantee fifo or filo

[earnest phoenix]

const DiscordStrategy = require("passport-discord").Strategy;
const passport = require("passport");
const DiscordUser = require("../modules/DiscordUser");

passport.serializeUser((user, done) => {
console.log("Serializing user...");
done(null, user.id)
});

passport.deserializeUser(async (id, done) => {
console.log("Deserializing user...");
const user = await DiscordUser.findById(id);
if(user)
done(null, user);
});

passport.use(new DiscordStrategy({
clientID: process.env.CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: process.env.CLIENT_SECRET,
callbackURL: process.env.CLIENT_REDIRECT,
scope: ["email", "identify"]
}, async (accessToken, refresToken, profile, done) => {
console.log(profile);
console.log(profile.email);
try {
const user = await DiscordUser.findOne({ discordId: profile.id })
if(user) {
{
console.log("User exists in our user DB...")
done(null, user);
}
}
else {
console.log("User does not exist in our user DB...")
const newUser = await DiscordUser.create({
discordId: profile.id,
username: profile.username,
email: profile.email,
tag: profile.discriminator
});
const savedUser = await newUser.save();
done(null, savedUser);
}
}
catch(err) {
console.log(err);
done(err, null);
}
}));

[lyric mountain]

In computer science, a semaphore is a variable or abstract data type used to control access to a common resource by multiple threads and avoid critical section problems in a concurrent system such as a multitasking operating system.

[earnest phoenix]

whats the problem please?

[wary minnow]

After logging it then

[lyric mountain]

https://www.lyrics.com/api.php

[lyric mountain]

you didn't supply clientID

[split hazel]

yeah but cant you just use a mutex for that

[lyric mountain]

mutex is 1<>1 usually

[lament rock]

process.env.CLIENT_ID was undefined

[earnest phoenix]

in tag?

[lyric mountain]

like, only 1 process can hold a mutex at any given time

while a semaphore is 1<>N

[split hazel]

wut

[lyric mountain]

like, there are 2 kinds of semaphores

counting and binaries

binaries are effectively mutexes

[wary minnow]

@lyric mountain is this the api key

[earnest phoenix]

what @lyric mountain ?

[lyric mountain]

bruh did u even bother to read?

[lyric mountain]

papi replied to u

[earnest phoenix]

and how i can fix it if you can tell me 😊

[lyric mountain]

^

[lament rock]

By actually putting the env var in the env variables file or table on your host if it has that. Also make sure your env file is being loaded if it is a file

[earnest phoenix]

i dont have const env = require("../env")

?

[wary minnow]

I am confused man what to do

[split hazel]

counting are the ones im interested in

honestly i might just implement it without completely knowing the purpose

[earnest phoenix]

..?

[split hazel]

it seems easy enough

[lyric mountain]

^

[lament rock]

what do you not understand. If it's undefined then that key either isn't in the env file or the env file isn't being loaded at all

[earnest phoenix]

https://uploadi.ng/fdzP2cI5

ah

[lament rock]

look at the env module to see how it works because you don't require it

https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv

[earnest phoenix]

https://uploadi.ng/aBFKvv6U

[earnest phoenix]

and there is discordstrategy.js

[lament rock]

That's great and all, but #development message

[earnest phoenix]

My guy, you're not supposed to directly import the .env file, you're supposed to load the environment variables using what Papi showed

Which'll load them to the process.env object

i have now this const env = require("../env)

but i have another problem

[lyric mountain]

public class JustExample {
  private final Set<Class<?>> holders = new HashSet<>();
  private final int cap;

  public JustExample(int cap) {
    this.cap = cap;
  }

  public synchronized boolean hold(Class<?> klass) {
    return holders.size() < cap && holders.add(klass);
  }

  public synchronized boolean release(Class<?> klass) {
    return holders.remove(klass);
  }
}

for example

[earnest phoenix]

https://uploadi.ng/TxxTFQ4y

Did you even read

[split hazel]

would semaphores use a mutex under the hood? because apparently when waiting or posting/signaling the counter cant inc/dec at the same time

[earnest phoenix]

haha im retard

@lament rock and @earnest phoenix thanks for helping

[dry imp]

lowkey wanna learn js

but i wanna learn lua

[lyric mountain]

from what I understood, a process can't hold a semaphore if there's no capacity

so basically a mutex with multiple uses

[lament rock]

JS can be fun, but really weird on edge cases and it's quite different in syntax

[lyric mountain]

mouse programming

[split hazel]

do you understand the purpose

im trying to i cant lmao

i'll just implement it and get on with my life

[lyric mountain]

to limit flow ig?

I mean, that also reflects real life semaphores

you have a crossroad, you need to limit flow to prevent disasters

[earnest phoenix]

and why i had this in console log https://uploadi.ng/2aZH69zr

[lyric mountain]

did you clone that project from somewhere?

[lament rock]

don't use body-parser for express. Express has one built in, so use that

[split hazel]

from a quick look i think its a multithread mutex kinda

[lyric mountain]

if u limit to 1 holder per thread, yeah

[wary minnow]

R u doing in pc or anything else

[earnest phoenix]

on vps

dedicated ubuntu

[lyric mountain]

you bought a dedi?

[tidal nymph]

if I build a crud app and I can do either Nestjs MVC or Nestjs + Vue, which way is faster?

[lyric mountain]

whatever u find easier

the bottleneck won't be what you use, but how you use

[dry imp]

anyone here good at lua?

[sacred smelt]

@lament rock how can i make that if i close server.js it will send before it webhook with: Server offline 🔴

or someone

please

[lament rock]

listen for process kill signals like signal interrupt or signal kill

[sacred smelt]

can you make example 😄

please ❤️

[lament rock]

no

♥️

because its not recommended, because there are a ton of signals you have to possible account for and properly handle an exit

[sacred smelt]

okay

[sacred smelt]

can i use

process.on('exit',
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setTitle('Api Status:')
.setDescription('Offline 🔴 !')
.setColor('#5865f2');
console.log("[HEYDISCORD LOG] Webhook Api_Status was sened");
webhook.send
);

or

@lament rock

[earnest phoenix]

Use a codeblock at least, not an inline codeblock

[sacred smelt]

ah, im sorry i understand :/

[earnest phoenix]

@lament rock or @earnest phoenix how can i make mongo db collection with discord user email name etc and data from form i still have errors

please help me

const DataSchema = {
Text: String,
// userId: String,
// Name: String,
// username: String,
// usertag: String
Email: String,
}

const Data = mongoose.model("Data", dataSchema)
const DiscordStrategy = require("passport-discord").Strategy;

app.post("/", function (req, res) {
let newData = new Data({
Text: req.body.data,
Email: WHAT HERE?
});
newData.save();
res.redirect('/')
console.log("New data:" + newFeedback);

[lament rock]

idk. I don't use mongo. Look at code which does similar stuff to you and take inspiration

[rich iron]

I don't understand why it doesn't work?

[rustic nova]

thats a direct file url, not a web url to an image

use something like https://imgur.com to upload images and embed them

[rose warren]

Looks like Discord is getting their way

At this rate my users will have probably almost completely adopted slash commands by this summer 👀

[celest gate]

hmm

[rich iron]

I also tried doing that before but it doesn’t work either

[rustic nova]

then you did not properly embed it, it has to be a direct image url

right click the image and copy image url

[rich iron]

nvm i figured it out

[tired panther]

Where did you got this info?

[rose warren]

I started tracking if commands being run are prefixed or slash back when I released slash commands to my bot

[tired panther]

Let me quickly aggregate my data

[rose warren]

Note the only advertising promoting the use of slash commands I've done is in the bot status where it says /help and on the Top.gg page. Otherwise, if my older users who are used to prefixes are still using their prefixed commands they would barely notice.

So I'm guessing a lot of the slash command users are new users but that's just a guess

Statistically, it should be a 50:50 split by the end of the month

[solemn latch]

thats just chart.js?

[rose warren]

It's not that sophisticated I'm just pasting the sql data into a google sheet but I use chart.js for my stats dash yep it's poggers

[solemn latch]

I want do make a trend line in chartjs, just havent even tried.
seems I need to calculate the trend on my own.

[bright thorn]

HELLO anyone using hybridesharding

[whole stream]

some reason my bot wont start up? Im new to coding can i have some help?

[rose warren]

They have a support server where you can get help quickly

[whole stream]

might be config.json

[rose warren]

Check your logs when you start it to see if you get any errors and work through it from there

[whole stream]

node.?

[bright thorn]

they are bad they told me too use discord.js sharding

😁

and i just asking him that how we can map shard uptime for all shard

[whole stream]

node. is discord bot start-up?

[earnest phoenix]

Even if their support server is telling you to use discord.js' native sharding then you should do so, I don't recommend using third-party libraries to handle sharding for you

[bright thorn]

yeah sure

then i will go for it

[earnest phoenix]

node . should start up your bot if the main entry file is set correctly in the package.json file (the main field)

[bright thorn]

but now i have to check uptime of all shards

how can i

[earnest phoenix]

You can use the https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/stable/class/ShardingManager?scrollTo=broadcastEval method to evaluate this.uptime to get all of shards' uptimes

[whole stream]

  "name": "amt",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "A bot for A mythical tale",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    "start": "tsc index.ts && node index.js"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "pkg": "^5.6.0"
  }
}

incorrect?

[earnest phoenix]

If you have index.js as your main file then yes that's correct, although I assume you're using discord.js but you don't have it installed

[whole stream]

how do i install it?

sorry to ask.

[earnest phoenix]

in the start script you seem to be using tsc, did you write your bot in TypeScript?

[whole stream]

nope what i was told to type

its just a very basic js bot like a ping pong sorta thing

[earnest phoenix]

Then I would recommend removing the start script as it's incorrect in this case

And you can install discord.js by running npm i discord.js

[whole stream]

thank you very much, now it says node. is incorrect

so anything else i can run

[whole stream]

node. : The term 'node.' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a 
path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

[earnest phoenix]

node ., a space between the node and .

[whole stream]

seems to work i think i might need to get a newer index.js whats the most basic script just to get the bot online?

[winter pasture]

very good server btw people there aren't stuck up like other cpp servers

from all storage sites u had to choose the one with the worst reputation around

js isn't typed btw, so doing Text: String ur actually assigning the class itself

also use ```

see?
way better to read

install _stream_transform.js

whatever that is

[fluid garden]

Im repl.it i can link 2 project for one bot?

[lyric mountain]

a better question would be "why?"

you can, but why?

[fluid garden]

Cz first one have many files

The bot will not get issues?

[lyric mountain]

projects are meant to have many files

[fluid garden]

The index is like full

[lyric mountain]

then put things out of index

also it isn't full, unless u managed to write more than 2 billion lines

[fluid garden]

Tf

Wow

[lyric mountain]

and it isn't a limit, it's just how far you can go before most file readers refuse to open it

the amount of files/lines doesn't really matter, WHAT is in those files do

you can have a 100k lines bot be faster than a 50 lines one

just remember to put each thing in the proper file

flooding index isn't the answer, albeit js allows it

index is like when u open a book and have a guide of where to open for a specific content

[fluid garden]

Iam working but the end is that bcz iam not 16+ and my bot in 60servers iam scared of a deletion

[lyric mountain]

this is an index

[fluid garden]

Oh

You gaved me the hint

I got it

[lyric mountain]

index.js should just guide the code to know where it can find the beginning (and stuff like creating bot client, setting endpoints, db connections, etc)

[fluid garden]

Ohh

[opaque acorn]

Ubuntu can be booted without graphic card?

[quartz kindle]

depends

if you have an integrated gpu, then your motherboard will have a video out plug even if you dont have a dedicated gpu

so yes it will work

but if your cpu does not have integrated graphics, or your motherboard does not have a video out, then you need a dedicated gpu to even have a video out plug to plug in your screen

if you're talking about network boot or vps, then yes it will work without gpu regardless

[opaque acorn]

Ok

Which format have the autoexecute?

[quartz kindle]

what is that?

[opaque acorn]

The extension

Of an autoexecutable file

[sick agate]

oh

[quartz kindle]

idk what that is

[sick agate]

on windows it depends on file format
on unix it depends onn? chmod type

[fluid garden]

Discord have a support server

?

[past idol]

Yeah

You want an invite?

[fluid garden]

Yes pls

[past idol]

https://discord.gg/discord-developers

[fluid garden]

Ty

[past idol]

No problem.

[lyric mountain]

extension is just a suggestion to what kind of programs open what files

and what icon to put in it

they're entirely optional, such that linux doesn't even care abt them

I could rename chrome.exe to chrome.txt and still run it

[sick agate]

yup

windows cares about file extensions a bit

[sick agate]

like you arent able to do that

[lyric mountain]

windows is sussy baka

[sharp geyser]

I went to sleep yes

I still failed at making the basic part of library tho

It seems like the event is stopping short. I am not to my knowledge receiving the ready event, here is the code: https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/aniqudibag.typescript

Received hello. Heartbeat interval = 41250ms. First heartbeat in 18617ms
Identifying

This is the response I get from debug

[quartz kindle]

add a socket.on("close"

and log the close code

[sharp geyser]

Received hello. Heartbeat interval = 41250ms. First heartbeat in 33658ms
Identifying
Sending heartbeat
Sending heartbeat
Sending heartbeat
Sending heartbeat
Sending heartbeat
Sending heartbeat
Sending heartbeat

Well now I know why nothing is happening

It is spamming the gateway after the heartbeat interval is up

[quartz kindle]

you didnt add the timer to setinterval

but you should still get the ready before that

[sharp geyser]

Yea that is weird

[quartz kindle]

add the close event

maybe the connection was closed

[sharp geyser]

I did check it

Nothing logged

Just the gateway spam

[sharp geyser]

also wdym by this?

[quartz kindle]

you literally have a setInterval

with no interval

[sharp geyser]

it should?

oh shit you right

I forgot that part :^)

[quartz kindle]

[sharp geyser]

listen man I was tireddd

Is it supposed to start identifying before sending the heartbeat or does it not matter when you identify?

[lament rock]

Heartbeat even when not identified

[quartz kindle]

its doesnt matter

[lament rock]

Discord recommends you to keep heartbeating until the gateway can assign you a session

and of course continue after that

[sharp geyser]

Well I still don't see why I am not receiving the ready event back

[quartz kindle]

log the identify data youre sending

[sharp geyser]

Mmm, for some reason intents is undefined huh

Ok so it was another one of me being so damn tired I wrote shit code and forgot to define intents having a value of options.intents

:^)

I now receive the ready event

[quartz kindle]

👍

no idea why discord didnt close it for invalid intents

[sharp geyser]

Yea that doesn't make sense

What should I implement now

[lament rock]

max_concurrency

[sharp geyser]

what is that

[quartz kindle]

resume

[sharp geyser]

Isn't resuming just checking if there is a session available and then if so that means there was a previous session?

[lament rock]

max_concurrency is an int from GET /gateway/bot where it defines how many identifies you can do within 5 seconds instead of just 1

[quartz kindle]

yes, you also need to listen to the resume opcode and restart the connection

[sharp geyser]

the resume opcode is 6 right?

[lament rock]

receive resume is op 9

[quartz kindle]

op 7

9 is invalid session

[lament rock]

oh mb

Its been a hot sec since I did gateway work

[quartz kindle]

you receive op 7, reconnect ws then send op 6 instead of identify

[lament rock]

resume also doesn't count towards identify call limitations, so if there is a session you can resume, you should do so

[quartz kindle]

yup

also, sometimes even invalid session can be resumed, because discord is weird

[hollow depot]

does anyone have a solution for this? those weird symbols are supposed to be accented letters (the correct lyric would be "Dipenderò da te, perché non so più stare sola"), this is requested to Genius api and converted to utf8, but accents show up with this weird �

(nodejs btw)

[quartz kindle]

how is it converted to utf8?

[sharp geyser]

    _initReconnect() {
        if(!this._internal.reconnectPromise) {
            let resolver;
            const promise = new Promise(resolve => { resolver = resolve; }).then(() => { this._internal.reconnectPromise = null; });
            promise.resolve = resolver;
            promise.offline = false;
            this._internal.reconnectPromise = promise;
        }
    }

Btw tim, I notice you do this in initReconnect in your code but this doesn't actually resume the connection dose it?

[hollow depot]

since im lazy require("utf8").encode(data), idk if this could be the problem

[lament rock]

bad way to do that

Buffer.toString("utf8");

where Buffer is usually the response body

[hollow depot]

ill try, thnx :)

[quartz kindle]

utf8 is the default anway

[quartz kindle]

after calling initreconnect, i send a close code to their websocket, and wait for discord to close it

i might change that tho

since it can cause issues in unstable networks

[sharp geyser]

Mmm but if you are wanting to reconnect why not just call _resume?

[quartz kindle]

the websocket has to be fully closed and reconnected

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm

[sharp geyser]

So could I not just call websocket.close()and then do this._resume()?

[quartz kindle]

where do you get data from?

does this api youre using have an npm package ir are you doing the request yourself?

[quartz kindle]

you need to call close, then call connect, then wait for hello, then call resume

[sharp geyser]

Wait what

But if I am calling connect won't I already identify again?

[quartz kindle]

after you receive hello, you resume if you have a session, and identify if you dont

[hollow depot]

its a package, i want to do it myself but i had no time honestly lately so i went for an easy option (@jeve/lyrics-finder)

[sharp geyser]

Actually wait yea

I just thought bout that

What close code do you use I don't remember seeing it in the docs

[quartz kindle]

you dont need to send a close code

[sharp geyser]

Oh? I thought you did

[lament rock]

I moved away from genius personally and just use https://some-random-api.ml

[sharp geyser]

            case GatewayOpcodes.Hello: {
                const interval = d.heartbeat_interval
                const timeout = Math.floor(interval * Math.random())
                this.emit('debug', `Received hello. Heartbeat interval = ${interval}ms. First heartbeat in ${timeout}ms`)
                internal.heartbeatInterval = setTimeout(() => {
                    internal.lastHeartbeat = Date.now();
                    this.emit('debug', 'Sending heartbeat')
                    this._socket.send(JSON.stringify({ op: GatewayOpcodes.Heartbeat, d: this.sequence }))
                    internal.heartbeatInterval = setInterval(() => {
                        internal.lastHeartbeat = Date.now()
                        this.emit('debug', 'Sending heartbeat')
                        this._socket.send(JSON.stringify({ op: GatewayOpcodes.Heartbeat, d: this.sequence }))
                    }, interval)
                }, timeout)

                if(this.session && this.sequence) {
                    this._resume()
                } else {
                    this._identify()
                }
                break;
            }
            case GatewayOpcodes.Resume: {
                this.emit('debug', 'Discord asked to reconnect')
                this._socket.close()
                this.connect()
                break;
            }

So theoretically this should work right?

[quartz kindle]

thr close code you send is echoed by them, so i send a custom code , so when i receive the close confirmation i know if i was the one who closed it, or if they were the ones who closed it

[hollow depot]

thank you :))

[quartz kindle]

you can also try data.toString("latin1")

but if youre using an npm package, it should be giving you the decoded data already, not a buffer?

[quartz kindle]

yes, you need to await close, otherwise you connect before the close finishss

[sharp geyser]

right

ty for that

Also another thing to work on is helping with rate limiting

At least I think that is something I should do right?

That way people don't get banned as easily

[quartz kindle]

websocket rate limit is very straight forward, its 120 requests per 60 seconds

but these requests are only for presence updates, voice state updates and requesting guild members

[sharp geyser]

I see

Do you mind if I copy your send method in tiny discord?

[quartz kindle]

feel free

[sharp geyser]

Tyty

Also ty for all the help with my endeavor I'm a complete noob with this so sorry if I bother you with all the questions

[quartz kindle]

just add a coment/license about it when you release it

[sharp geyser]

Yeee

[sharp geyser]

Seems like the rate limiter works

:^)

ty again tim for all this help :p

[quartz kindle]

np

[sharp geyser]

I think everything gateway wise is done (other than voice state update thingy)

Also I notice you do a lot of stuff on close that is smart

[quartz kindle]

i have to think of every possible scenario

all sorts of shit can happen

[sharp geyser]

Yea, that makes a lot of sense

I am kinda just going with the flow rn so I am not thinking of every possible thing that could go wrong, plus I am not entirely sure of what could go wrong as I am new to the whole socket thing so I have no idea what possible outcomes can occur

[green kestrel]

i got dpp to name its threads 😄

gonna use that in my bot's admin panel to report on specific cpu usage per shard

[outer niche]

I keep on getting with this command that I did not mention a channel properly but I did and I do not understand why
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/olabunixul

[quartz kindle]

debug it

you know where the error happens, you know which line is causing the error

log it and test it independently to see whats wrong

print answers, print answers[0], print answers[0][2:-1]

and eventually you will find whats wrong

[wheat mesa]

wtf is answers[0][2:-1]

is that like answers[0][2] if it exists, but answers[0][finalIndexOfAnswers] if it doesn't?

[quartz kindle]

im assuming its some weird syntax for .slice(2, -1)

[wheat mesa]

oh yeah I forgot python has slice syntax

[bright thorn]

If shard dont have any sessionId that mean its dead?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[hollow needle]

huh

i’m gayyyyyy

[lyric mountain]

No way, real shit? This changed everything

[sharp geyser]

wdym by that eh?

[quartz kindle]

that hes gay

[sharp geyser]

lol

Man tim I am stumped on how I wanna handle the events. I even looked at djs way of doing events and it is a rabbit hole

:^)

I know they emit the events in actions but idk how the actions are called or how they work

[quartz kindle]

djs converts every single event into a djs structure before emitting

actions are called from handlers

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm, how do they even do that?

Where does the conversion begin?

[quartz kindle]

check the handlers folder

in the websocket folder

[sharp geyser]

client.actions.WebhooksUpdate.handle(packet.d)

hmmm

[quartz kindle]

some of them call the action directly, others do a lot of preprocessing before the action

its a mess

[sharp geyser]

Yea it is very hard for a nub like me to follow this

[quartz kindle]

the structure conversion is done in actions

with the ._add() methods

[sharp geyser]

some of the events are just done directly in the handler file

[quartz kindle]

yes

its very messy

but there is a reason behind it

[sharp geyser]

  register(Action) {
    this[Action.name.replace(/Action$/, '')] = new Action(this.client);
  }

wtf is this bs

Are they just getting the name and setting the action for it or?

Alright so from what I can tell, the websocket manager catches the events, uses the handlers for that event, and then the action processes the data and does what it needs with it and then emits it?

[quartz kindle]

yes

and the reason handlers and actions are separate is because

for exanple

when your bot sends a message with the rest api

discord responds to the http request with the created message

but also sends a message create event for the same message

[sharp geyser]

I am now realizing how fun yet how fucking annoying this project is :^)

[quartz kindle]

the response from the http request also goes through the actions

so actions are used by both websocket and rest

handlers are only websocket

[sharp geyser]

I get that

But I really don't wanna make my system in such a messy way even though it will likely end up like that

[quartz kindle]

yeah

i chose to not use structures at all

just use the raw evebts directly

[sharp geyser]

I was also thinking of just doing that and having something similar to discord akairo

listener and listenerhandler ya know

The listener would essentially do what actions in djs do

and the handler would be for registering those events with the code base

I think before I focus on events though ima work on the websocket some more

[quartz kindle]

👍

[sharp geyser]

Welp I give up for now

ty for the help today tim

[lament rock]

@sharp geyser for when you see later, I really highly recommend you don't try to make the next Discord.js as you'll burn yourself out faster than anything

[sullen crater]

omg akairo 🥺

[worn pasture]

Replying a year later

So

All you have to do

Is search for kali nethunter

[lament rock]

using import() instead of require() or change the module to be a common js module instead of esm

[celest gate]

ok

[sharp saddle]

how the hell does nest work? I thought there were docs

[earnest phoenix]

https://docs.nestjs.com/

[sharp saddle]

aah thanks volt

[hidden gorge]

const { REST } = require("@discordjs/rest");
const { Routes } = require("discord-api-types/v9");

[quartz kindle]

is that the code for registerSlashGlobal.js?

[hidden gorge]

yes

[quartz kindle]

the error says the problem is on line 1

i dont need anything wrong on the first line of that code

[lyric mountain]

timhadastroke

[sharp saddle]

also, if you are using node v8

Discord.js v13 doesn't work

[quartz kindle]

node 8? wat

[sharp saddle]

Replit uses v8

[quartz kindle]

no?

[sharp saddle]

ah

wait

npm v8

im dumb

[quartz kindle]

lel

[sharp saddle]

replit uses node v12

replica

loves auto corrector

[quartz kindle]

exdee

[sharp geyser]

Yea I'm trying not to but I've never done it before so I have no idea how I should structure it so I'm taking a lot of inspiration from djs and tiny discord tho I am probably just going to start over from scratch and do it my own way

[bright thorn]

How can we check if any shard got issue or off

[opaque acorn]

Yes

[bright thorn]

🥴 am new in shard

[opaque acorn]

In replit we must use npx

[lyric mountain]

check its status

the shardmanager should contain all managed shards

loop though it to find your faulty shard

[bright thorn]

status is 1 or 0 in some shards 5

so any scale for status?

[lyric mountain]

use the enums, not the codes

I mean, if your lib has them

[quartz kindle]

are you using discord.js?

[bright thorn]

hybride

[snow urchin]

How would I go about using blobs in NodeJS, need to use new Blob

[quartz kindle]

discord-hybrid-sharding?

[bright thorn]

yes

[quartz kindle]

client.ws.shards has a list of shards on each cluster

[bright thorn]

yes

[quartz kindle]

each shard has .status

[bright thorn]

can you dm me this docs

[quartz kindle]

the docs for the shards are from discord.js

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/stable/class/WebSocketShard

[quartz kindle]

what do you want to use blob for?

[snow urchin]

I am trying to respond to a button interaction on the raw event so it works even after a restart, I am trying to send an image alongside the data, which requires form data and payload json
I am struggling to get this working 😭

This is what I got currently, seems to be a bit further now, may not even need blob
current issue now is cannot send an empty message api response 😦
https://i.callumdev.xyz/dEviPESo18.png

[quartz kindle]

your append is wrong, and you're missing the boundary headers

formData.append("files[0]", data, filename);

headers: {
  ...formData.getHeaders(),
  content-type: "multipart-formdata"
}

also what type is captcha.dataURL? not sure if formdata supports base64 dataurls

its better if its buffer or stream

[snow urchin]

Yeah, I can try a stream for it one sec, the above code has gotten it to send a file now but the image is just blank and it doesnt have the embed either

Cool, it sends the image now just fine with the stream, only issue is it sends ONLY the image, and it sends it as a file

[quartz kindle]

try instead of filename

{filename: 'captcha.png', contentType: 'image/png'}

you're using the form-data npm package right?

[snow urchin]

I am yeah

[snow urchin]

Where would I put this?

[snow urchin]

Once again it just sends as a message attachment and does not include the embed either 😦

[quartz kindle]

try changing the order

the file first, and payload_json second

[snow urchin]

still no difference

[quartz kindle]

not sure then, can you show your current code again?

[snow urchin]

This is it currently

const captcha = new Captcha(100),
          newData = new FormData();

        newData.append("files[0]", captcha.PNGStream, { filename: 'captcha.png', contentType: 'image/png' });
        newData.append("payload_json", JSON.stringify({
          "type": 4,
          "embeds": [
            {
              "title": "Verification Code",
              "type": "rich",
              "description": "Please click the verify button and enter the code you see below.",
              "timestamp": Date.now(),
              "color": 16777215,
              "image": {
                "url": "attachment://captcha.png"
              },
              "ephemeral": true
            }
          ]
        }))

        axios(`https://discord.com/api/v8/interactions/${interaction.id}/${interaction.token}/callback`, {
          method: "POST",
          data: newData,
          headers: {
            ...newData.getHeaders(),
            "Content-Type": "multipart-formdata"
          }
        });

[quartz kindle]

since its an interaction callback, it should have a data object

{
  type: 4,
  data: {
    embeds: [...],
    attachments: [...]
  }
}

[snow urchin]

Thank's Tim, that works now, just curious, do I have the "ephemeral" in the wrong place?

[quartz kindle]

yeah it should not be inside the embed

[earnest phoenix]

How do i make a bot with auto-mod?
Like i want to create my OWN Private bot
To moderate the server

[quartz kindle]

you need to set it in flags

[earnest phoenix]

i don't know coding..

[quartz kindle]

data: {
  embeds: [...],
  flags: ephemeral flag here
}

[earnest phoenix]

or how to even input a code into a bot

[snow urchin]

great thanks
