development

[quartz kindle]

there is such a thing as a minimum amount of data possible to represent in a given cpu architecture

even in C booleans take 1 whole byte

java uses its own jvm which further translates everything into its own data containers

[lyric mountain]

so they use 1 byte to prevent cpu compatibility issues?

[quartz kindle]

its the minimum possible amount of data that the cpu can process

A bool takes in real 1 bit, as you need only 2 different values. However, when you do a sizeof(bool), it returns 1, meaning 1 byte. For practical reasons, the 7 bits remaining are stuffed. you can't store a variable of size less than 1 byte.

[lyric mountain]

that makes sense

[quartz kindle]

But you have to keep in mind that we nowadays have 32-bit and 64-bit processors and while a single bit would be enough to hold a boolean, the processor just processes data that is either 32 bits or 64 bits in size. (Although it can compact data to 16 bits or even 8 bits.) But the processor also has a set of flags, which are basically 1-bit registers so it can store booleans as a single bit, depending on how the processor is used.

[vivid fulcrum]

it's basically because of how registers work

this ^^

it's way easier and faster to flush a byte into the register than flipping through to change a bit

[quartz kindle]

here's a nice explanation: https://www.quora.com/In-C-why-is-the-size-of-the-bool-1-byte-Isnt-just-1-bit-enough

all of this is why bitfields are so damn useful

you can pack dozens of booleans in a single 32bit int

where if you were to store them independently in memory, each of them would use a minimum of 1 byte, if not more

[lyric mountain]

make a compiler that grabs all booleans during runtime and pack them in a global bitfield pool

[quartz kindle]

yeah but how will you address them

[lyric mountain]

hm, declaration order?

[quartz kindle]

well the compiler still needs to write the number anyway

memory usage is a tricky business because everything is addressed by 8 bytes in 64 bit systems

even a single reference is 8 bytes

so 8 bytes to access the memory position where the bit field is stored, plus 1 byte for the index number in the bitfield

and if you go deeper, all memory access is controlled by the allocator, which further decides how to split the data across the physical ram and often does so in fixed size chunks

[split hazel]

💀

you sacrifice memory for performance

[fathom sonnet]

i got a problem...from some reason i cant download anything with npm...i got this and thats all

no errors nothing

[quartz kindle]

that means its already installed

if its not, then delete your node_modules folder and your package.json and package-lock.json files and install again

[fathom sonnet]

the thing is

there is no node module folders

[spark flint]

[cinder patio]

you need to have a package.json

you don't

[fathom sonnet]

yea but as i know they are automaticly created

while downloading

[cinder patio]

you need to have a package.json first

[quartz kindle]

are you sure you are in the correct folder?

[cinder patio]

npm init

[quartz kindle]

type dir

[cinder patio]

Same thing has happened to me just create a package.json

[quartz kindle]

did it also say you had 24 packages installed? is npm that bad?

[fathom sonnet]

solve it

tnx for help guys

[compact pier]

how I can fix this error

[lyric mountain]

exception-based code flow 👍

but well, although your code tickles my security-leak sense, Error doesn't contain password property

[compact pier]

yeah ik, is there anyway to ignore that?

cause there is noway Error gonna have password property

[lyric mountain]

ignore? you don't simply ignore stuff, you fix the issue

return null if user doesn't exist

[compact pier]

it is kinda bad :<

[lyric mountain]

if u want to have an exception, print it before returning

[compact pier]

cause I want to return as a Error message

[compact pier]

wdym

[lyric mountain]

return to who? the user?

[compact pier]

yeah the client

like the clinet just have to <h1>{ data.error.message }</h1>

[lyric mountain]

const user = ...;

try {
  if (!user) throw new Error(...);
} finally {
  return user;
}

user will be either the user or null

[compact pier]

oh

damm this new

[copper cradle]

Holy

You don't need to check if the user exists

Just return it

[compact pier]

I just want to return the error message

[lyric mountain]

other than that, DO NOT STORE PLAIN TEXT PASSWORDS

hash the password then compare with the hash in database

[marble juniper]

Yes

If you wanna go the extra mile

Do hashing + salt

So that a rainbow table wont work lol

[lyric mountain]

if u want to go EVEN further, hash the salt too

[marble juniper]

The easiest way to do it

https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#cryptoscryptpassword-salt-keylen-options-callback

Use the crypto module

const {
  scrypt,
} = require('node:crypto');

// Using the factory defaults.
scrypt('password', 'salt', 64, (err, derivedKey) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log(derivedKey.toString('hex'));  // '3745e48...08d59ae'
});
// Using a custom N parameter. Must be a power of two.
scrypt('password', 'salt', 64, { N: 1024 }, (err, derivedKey) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log(derivedKey.toString('hex'));  // '3745e48...aa39b34'
});

[lyric mountain]

scrypt

[marble juniper]

Yes

Provides an asynchronous scrypt implementation. Scrypt is a password-based key derivation function that is designed to be expensive computationally and memory-wise in order to make brute-force attacks unrewarding.

[lyric mountain]

they missed the chance to call it JavaScrypt

[marble juniper]

You could also use https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#cryptopbkdf2password-salt-iterations-keylen-digest-callback

const {
  pbkdf2,
} = require('node:crypto');

pbkdf2('secret', 'salt', 100000, 64, 'sha512', (err, derivedKey) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log(derivedKey.toString('hex'));  // '3745e48...08d59ae'
});

Both have the same purpose

[lyric mountain]

sha512 holy fck

[marble juniper]

Just a different algorithm

lol

[lyric mountain]

what are u trying to hash? an individual atom?

[marble juniper]

Security is no joke

[lyric mountain]

chances are there's not enough silicon in the universe to make a computer able to crack that

[marble juniper]

Better that way

[marble juniper]

Better that way

[lyric mountain]

that's not even about 512 lul

[marble juniper]

At least that means the passwords cant be brute forced

[fathom sonnet]

now this...it just open terminal for like .5s and close it

[marble juniper]

Probably something in ur code that causes it to exit the event loop

[fathom sonnet]

literaly whole code

[wheat mesa]

allIntents is not a valid object parameter most likely

[lyric mountain]

config.json UH OH

[wheat mesa]

Try new Client({ intents: allIntents }) or whatever it is

[lyric mountain]

use environment variables or .env

don't be lazy when securing your tokens

[fathom sonnet]

WILL LATER

[lyric mountain]

later might be too late

how do you think scam bots are created?

[fathom sonnet]

its on my PC soo no wories

[fathom sonnet]

you are God and an absolute legend ❤️

[lyric mountain]

shhh, don't give a developer dopamine

it's dangerous

[brave nova]

its super painful to webscrap a website, just if theres a npm to only scrape the website's head tags

[lyric mountain]

u could use regex

[brave nova]

i did use regex

[lyric mountain]

what did u use and what are u trying to get?

[brave nova]

axios, to get head tag on hmtl

to get links

[lyric mountain]

only the head tag or the entire head block?

[brave nova]

entire block

[lyric mountain]

specific tags within it?

[brave nova]

metas

[lyric mountain]

send an example here

like, the head block

[brave nova]

i just send get request to youtube for example and axios will return with the html code, and from that code i filter only links and theres will be alot of duplication, so i remove duplicates and thats how i do it for now

[wheat mesa]

Nah I needed that, definitely failed an exam today lmao

[lyric mountain]

/(?:<meta.+?)(?:(?<key>\w+?)="(?<value>.+?)")+(?:.+?\/>)/gim

[brave nova]

aight thanks

[brave nova]

im currently using this :p
/(http(s)?(:\/\/)?)(?:[A-z0-9](?:[A-z0-9-]{0,61}[A-z0-9])?\.)+[A-z0-9][A-z0-9-]{0,61}[A-z0-9].+(?:[A-z0-9-])/gim

[lyric mountain]

yours will grab links

[brave nova]

yea

i targetting links on meta tag

[lyric mountain]

mine will grab meta values, so u might still need to check if it's an url

[brave nova]

i'll improve the regex

so it only grab url from metas

instead all links

[lyric mountain]

actually, mine still miss second matches within the same line

(?<=<meta.+)(?:(?<key>\w+?)="(?<value>.+?)")+(?=.+\/>)

also to test an url u can just try to send a request to it

if it errors then it isn't an url or isn't reachable (which u wouldn't want to try anyway)

most fetch libs are fail-fast, so it'll do a bunch of checks before attempting a connection

[fathom sonnet]

i give up!!

registering slash commands is fucking inposible

literlay same code...i execute this file and...nothing, no errors, cmd opens and close after sec...

using prefix is just easy

[fathom sonnet]

index.js run normal but this dosent

Worst part there is no error

Maybe i should downgrade node

Maybe that could be a problem simce i use 18.0.something version

[wheat mesa]

Are you even running anything in your index.js file? Your other files don’t just magically run because you put code in them

Node 18+ should not cause issues

[fathom sonnet]

Yea there is a code in index file i just copied it from djs guide since i wanted to see will everyrhimg work... Index file works and i get msg in console when i run it

But this deploy-commands... Dosent run

The worst thing is that there is no error

[quartz kindle]

have you tried running it directly?

node deploy-commands.js

[fathom sonnet]

Yes

I think making this slash commands work will be bigest problem

[quartz kindle]

add a console.log right before rest.put()

to see if it logs anything

[sharp geyser]

What is the easiest way to get all the guilds after identify to cache them?

[pale vessel]

listen to GUILD_CREATE events after identifying

they also give guilds in the ready event too iirc

[quartz kindle]

yes, the ready event gives you a list of guild ids that you should expect

then you receive a bunch of GUILD_CREATES for those ids

[sharp geyser]

Okay so I assume that on guild create I should just add those guilds to the cache?

[quartz kindle]

yes

you will not receive any "real" GUILD_CREATE until you receive all those intial ones

[sharp geyser]

I am starting to think about how I should even handle caching, cause right now the way I am doing it wont scale well

[lament rock]

by not caching

[sharp geyser]

bro im serious 😔

[lament rock]

Cache raw structs in a Map<K, V>

[sharp geyser]

Well I already basically made my own djs collection :^)

[lament rock]

Trying to mutate the data returned by Discord is just so much overhead

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm

[lament rock]

or constructing classes I mean

[sharp geyser]

I was thinking of just making a class called
GuildStore that extends BaseStore

[lament rock]

You can do a similar thing to djs where they cache in Collections, but don't bother making so many structures like discord.js. It's just collecting garbage

The basic concept of making a good lib is you take all of what discord.js is doing and do none of that

[sharp geyser]

I was thinking just make a class for each thing I cache like Channels, Guilds, Users, etc

Actually hol up

[lament rock]

Some stuff I can understand like trying to get dates from SnowFlakes

but that can be a Util function

really, just store raw data

it'll save you a lot of pain of adding members to classes when you could just not update the lib at all unless totally necessary

You'll find out very quickly how volatile Discord's api is

[sharp geyser]

import { BaseStore } from '../../../stores';

export class Guild {
    public cache: BaseStore<string, Guild>
    
    constructor() {
        this.cache = new BaseStore<string, Guild>()
    }
    // Have all my guild related methods plus being able to keep the guild cache
}

Though now that I think a bout it this probably wont work either

[lament rock]

storing Guilds in a guild?

[sharp geyser]

Mmm, I am trying to think of how to reliably do caching for the important stuff but I am nub

[lament rock]

Look at source code of other libs

[sharp geyser]

djs is out of the question

their code is hell

[lament rock]

Kind of

not type safe

ugly to look at

[pale vessel]

i believe he's making managers for each cache like discord.js

[sharp geyser]

Nah not anymore

[pale vessel]

why does it look like this then

[sharp geyser]

I was thinking about doing that but then decided not to

[lament rock]

what is your goal for the lib? Ease of use? Efficiency and scalability?

you can't have both

[sharp geyser]

I wanna make it as user friendly as possible

Without holding their hands too much ofc

[lament rock]

That's already discord.js

[sharp geyser]

true

Well I can't really go for efficiency and scalability right now

I am not good enough to write code to achieve that

[lament rock]

use raw net.Socket for a week and you'll be either good enough by then, or want to kill yourself before

[sharp geyser]

wtf is that?

[lament rock]

net.Socket is a very low level Stream based socket implementation for connecting to web servers

I think it still provides some helpful abstractions like dns queries

[sharp geyser]

I mean I don't think I could even write efficient code at all so

[lament rock]

Welp. If you have a memory target in mind, you can install heapdump and start peeking into js heap snapshots and seeing what takes the most ram

as a warning, beginners will find it very hard to do that

[quartz kindle]

discords raw data is actually pretty inefficient

but then djs takes it and makes it even worse

:^)

[lament rock]

Better than dumping all of the data into some class' members

the size of the prototype just adds to the mess

discord.js' import size already makes me not meet my memory target

combination of the prototypes and module strings

[sharp geyser]

alright so all I am reading is I suck

[lament rock]

I still think I suck after understanding how to do something at such a low level

that wont change

[sharp geyser]

yknow what I am happy with how far I got with this lib

time to call it quits and leave it to the big dogs

[quartz kindle]

make an lmdb based cache

[lament rock]

contribute to other libs

You can still have fun

[sharp geyser]

fuck no im not smart enough to dick with other libs code

[lament rock]

You dick with other libs' code to get smarter

[sharp geyser]

I lack the confidence to do that tho so it will likely never happen

[quartz kindle]

you dick with other libs to feel good about yourself

because other libs suck

:^)

[lament rock]

true

[sharp geyser]

If anyone does wanna take a look at my shit code https://github.com/MistyyBoi/strife here ya go :p

I might at some point pick it up again and start working on it but I lack the motivation now

[lament rock]

Honestly, most of the stuff I work with is proprietary because I have very strict demands for performance. For better or for worse, I pushed myself to seek out or make better performing software and how I have it with my bots is good imo. Could be better, but my dep tree it totally clean of libs like axios and others that I consider to just be garbage in the heap if I was the GC.

They have their audience, but I'm not in it

[sharp geyser]

I try to be performant as possible but I always end up lacking in that aspect, plus the stuff I generally make either a few people use or no one use it at all so it just doesn't seem like what I am making is very appealing to the public which blows my confident to even continue learning

[lament rock]

You gotta either make something so mind blowingly better that it would be stupid not to use it or just be popular

[sharp geyser]

Yea I suck too much to do either of those

[lament rock]

I tried to get the libs I maintain listed on the official community resources, but got ignored for like 2 months except for 1 comment by d.py dev correcting one of my statements about not seeing other modular libs in the list and that's it. Then harsher restrictions came and now I'm just fucked

[quartz kindle]

first step is to make something that youre gonna use yourself

most of the stuff i made i started because i needed it myself

and i use it myself

if other people like it or not thats not important

[sharp geyser]

Mmm, my end goal is to make something that people will enjoy using

[lament rock]

The most cursed thing I made was a command documentation based argument parser because slash commands weren't a thing yet and I wanted something that gave me "type safety" without having to jump through so many hoops for each command

like

[quartz kindle]

if you try to appeal to others first you just end up making the equivent of yet another multipurpose bot

[lament rock]

!commandName user:User description:string [action:"add"|"delete"]

would parse properly

[quartz kindle]

you have to appeal to yourself first

[sharp geyser]

Mmm yea but a lot of the things I would want to make are just way too much for a single person to do without blowing my brains out

[lament rock]

https://github.com/TsukikoDiscord/ArgumentAnalyser

This shit is really cursed

[quartz kindle]

xD

[lament rock]

It worked so well for what it is though

like it was a god send to me at the time

[sharp geyser]

I need to come up with something that I enjoy doing, that lib was fun but it made me lose motivation

[lament rock]

Something for your bot if you have one

just something to make dev work easier

[sharp geyser]

I decided a while ago to not make any more bots as there is no point anymore

the market is too flooded that no matter what even if your bot is better the popular ones will still be used over it

[lament rock]

Well. Either bots don't do a specific thing or so many bots do it terribly

Like, I wanted to make a text based multiplayer rpg since that didn't exist at the time

I quickly gave up on that tho

[sharp geyser]

I can't do that

i'd end up getting in over my head and try and do the impossible which then leads to me giving up since icouldn't do it

Plus the discord api in terms of making bots is getting boring for me, I don't want the discord api to define my entire career as a dev I wanna branch out into something more enjoyable that will bring enjoyment to other people as well as myself

[lament rock]

My music bot has been in service for 4 years and is only at 6900 guilds (nice)
and I've received a lot of positive feedback that it's just so much better than other bots, but what can I do if I don't advertise it so cut throat like other bots that farm votes to reach front page

[sharp geyser]

I mean shit for a music bot that is pretty nice

[lament rock]

I suppose, yeah, but I see other bots that have existed for much less time and are in hundreds of thousands of guilds

Not like I'm jealous. Must be a nightmare to scale discord.js music bots

[sharp geyser]

I bet those ones aren't nearly as good as yours tho

They are typically either made poorly or copy pasted

[lament rock]

Well. That's for others to decide, not me. And it seems like people want whatever competitors offer

the meta is vote locking

wanna give people volume control? Vote lock

Is what I would say if I did do that, but I don't

[sharp geyser]

That is what I dislike tho

Vote locking is just pain

I get it, wanna get your bot on front page but some people take it too far and votelock nearly everything

[lament rock]

Whatever gets you to front page I guess

[sharp geyser]

I still have a project idea that i have been reluctant to actually start on, mostly due to lack of people supporting the idea

[lament rock]

The first week my bot got accepted onto a list I won't name because it isn't this one, It got 2,000 invite uses. That's only because it appeared on a "new bots" category on front page

what is it

[sharp geyser]

I can dm you the idea (not like it is a very good one but yknow I don't want some rando sniping it)

[lament rock]

ok

[earnest phoenix]

Its a nightmare to scale discord.js bots

[lament rock]

that's why I gave up on Discord.js

But I used it for most of its development cycle

only recently have I started using modular libs

[brave nova]

lul, wants to use FX, you must vote to use dis command, me just make my own bot den kek

[carmine summit]

userId or userID?

[pale vessel]

context?

userID seems more natural to me

[carmine summit]

none. just finding things that help me procrastinate

[dry imp]

USERID is better

[craggy pine]

uSeRiD

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm what should I use to make my api

should I just stick with the basic express or hmm

[pale vessel]

what happened to coding in go

[sharp geyser]

I am probably just going to use ts and then microservice things or smth

I am not too confident with go as I am ts

[sharp geyser]

do you have something against go?

[pale vessel]

nop

i made a simple tool with it, it wasn't bad to work with

[fathom sonnet]

ok, so i tried to console.log before rest.put() and it loogs --- Test --- and then close...

[sharp geyser]

Do you get an error?

[fathom sonnet]

No

Cmd open, print test and close

[pallid zinc]

@fathom sonnet console log the commands

[fathom sonnet]

here we go

[pallid zinc]

You tried removing the map which you are using to convert the data to json?

[fathom sonnet]

yep

still same

[pallid zinc]

Like it does not show the slash commands na

[fathom sonnet]

yea there is no slash commands at all

[pallid zinc]

Clientid is right?

Try removing the guildid to make it a global thing

Maybe you dont have perm in guid to add slash

But it should give error

[fathom sonnet]

Yea it is, alright gonna try that later

[fathom sonnet]

yea...removing guildID dosent nothing

[tidal nymph]

rip bot was good for 2 days until it just got rate-limited

💀

[dry imp]

mood

[fathom sonnet]

ok, i donwgraded node to 16.15 and now i getting errors again...tnx God

ok here is error

now...

...i was using my clientid instead of aplication id

ok ok... now i have this:

DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body

  }
}

ok...

what next

[pallid zinc]

If you removed the toJSON thing try adding that again

[fathom sonnet]

Yep i tougjt that could be solve issue

[pallid zinc]

Did it?

[rustic nova]

wait I forgot about the discordpy shit: Is there no python-based discord library that actively has the interactions stuff?

because the ones I'm finding are either abandoned or not maintained

I stumbled upon https://github.com/kiki7000/discord.py-components, though that one is archived, which makes it seem like development has stopped

[rustic nova]

welp, guess I know why

kinda not comfortable using the library from that dev mentioned there, so welp back to java

[fathom sonnet]

Still didnt try bxz im not at home

[spark flint]

open but closed

[rustic nova]

but yeah, basically kills off my plans for doing this one private bot in python

will discord.py be somewhat continued by someone else in the future or is it entirely dead

[spark flint]

dpy is now being continued again

original dev

[fervent moss]

Ded

[slender thistle]

d.py was revived by Danny

[spark flint]

^

[rustic nova]

honestly not getting the vibes of that when I'm not seeing anything referring to interactions or components on the docs

[pallid zinc]

Try and if it dont work try consoling the clientId and guildId

[rustic nova]

like I am seeing changes on their repo, though not sure why only minor changes and not interaction stuff when discord gave a deadline about the message content intent

nevermind it is in there

and nevermind again, literally latest version is 1.7.3 which doesnt have it

istg

[fathom sonnet]

still same...

error occure after "test" si logged to console

[pallid zinc]

Do console.log(clientId)

[lyric mountain]

The url

guilds/undefined/commands

Ur trying to publish slash cmds to a non existing guild

[fathom sonnet]

logs Test
logs ClientID

throw err

[lament rock]

You should be posting to global commands route, not guilds route

[lyric mountain]

Also u didn't had to hide the client id, it's public and written on the bottom

[fathom sonnet]

ah ye ik

[fathom sonnet]

habbits

[fluid garden]

Anyone know what this error?

[lyric mountain]

No

I can barely read it

[fathom sonnet]

your roles

are undefined

[fluid garden]

What?

[fathom sonnet]

'cannont read properties of roles'

[lament rock]

I can get your bot's token from just the client ID!!! See, the first part of the token is OTY3NDgzNjQxMzkzNDU1MTA0

[lyric mountain]

Hackerman

[lament rock]

[fluid garden]

Didnt set any role

The kt just have a addrole global command

That only thing of roles

[lyric mountain]

Show the whole error

Paste it here

[fluid garden]

    at Object.module.exports.run (/home/runner/All-in-one-bot-with-SlashCommands/src/events/messageCreate.js:43:24)

Have mqny error

[lyric mountain]

That doesn't help much

[fathom sonnet]

fixed error...

1 fucking word

[fathom sonnet]

and its not working...

[pallid zinc]

I just wanted to check if you had a valid client id and you can put that guildId thing i just asked you to remove it cause your code was not even giving any errors before

[lyric mountain]

Paste the error, not a print of it

[fathom sonnet]

yea that was due to node

i downgraded to 16.15

[pallid zinc]

Yup

[fluid garden]

Cant copy from repl.it

[fathom sonnet]

i was using 18.0

[fluid garden]

It do t allow

[lyric mountain]

Reading stacktrace on mobile is hard enough, reading a stacktrace on mobile as a print of YOUR mobile is even worse

[pallid zinc]

Just wanted to know if that is even running, so yea you can add the guildid thing and check if more errors

[lyric mountain]

Are u sure u can't copy?

[fluid garden]

Ya

From logs

Cant

I can send image

[lyric mountain]

Show messageCreate line 43

[fluid garden]

I added some notes

[lyric mountain]

Oh my

[fluid garden]

if (message.member.roles.cache.highest.position >message.guild.member.roles.cache.highest.position) return;

    if (check) {
      if (array.some((word) => message.content.toLowerCase().includes(word))) {
        message.delete();

The if is at line 43

[lyric mountain]

But well, message.member.roles is undefined

That or message.guild.member.roles

I bet on the second

Not all messages are sent in guilds

[fluid garden]

Wdym

[lyric mountain]

Private messages

Have no guild

[lament rock]

message.guild.member isn't a GuildMember is it

[fluid garden]

I cant close the bot dm

[lyric mountain]

Ah that too

[fluid garden]

Can i?

How

[lament rock]

idk

[fluid garden]

If i closed bot dms it will work?

[lyric mountain]

That's not the issue, it's what papi pointed

[fluid garden]

What should i do

Iam confused

[lament rock]

if you want to check highest bot role, check message.guild.me.roles.highest.position

[lyric mountain]

message.guild.member is not valid code

[fluid garden]

I replace with?

[lament rock]

Collection<string, Role>.highest isn't a property as well

[pallid zinc]

Ig dont use replit if you dont have there premium tho, peeps can search that url in ss and can see your token tho

[fluid garden]

No

It is in secret env

@lament rock so what should i do

[lament rock]

#development message

[fluid garden]

Ok but can you check odes before

[lament rock]

I don't think you understand my advice or totally forgot the context in which I posted that in. You might want to read it again and then your own code

#development message

[fluid garden]

This error

Wasnt showing before

It suddenly appeared

And every ckmmand was working

[lament rock]

Everything else was probably broken or that command never ran or got to that point

[fluid garden]

It was working proparly

Maybe some body dm bot and it get issue

[lament rock]

You should also be checking that

[fluid garden]

How

Cant

[lament rock]

what do you mean you can't

[fluid garden]

I cant check

Whoo dm

Bot

And in logs

Cant show

That someone did

[lament rock]

message.author is who created the message

message.guild is either a Guild or null depending on if the message was sent in a guild or not

[fluid garden]

Can i send my codes?

[lament rock]

For what purpose

[spark flint]

Using Discord.js, how can I acknowledge a button click without replying to it?

[fluid garden]

Idl what to do :(

Iam not nnderstanding

[lament rock]

deferUpdate

message.guild.member.roles.cache.highest.position
to
message.guild.me.roles.highest.position

[fluid garden]

I do that?

?

[lament rock]

Ok. That should be it

[fluid garden]

That will make the bkt do the action kn the lower role user

?

[lament rock]

yeah

[fluid garden]

I thi k will not work z it have sometng different see my code

[lament rock]

Well. Try it and see

[fluid garden]

Ok

[lament rock]

also, for guild only commands you should be checking if (!message.guild) return or something like that

[fluid garden]

Nothing working

[lament rock]

ok. What's the error

[fluid garden]

Idk what happened

[fickle arch]

I don't know how you manage to code on phone with replit lol

[fluid garden]

My pc right

Now

Isnt woth me

[solemn latch]

looks like you are using .roles on null

[fickle arch]

hmm, I could install other package but not enmap and better-sqlite3

[fluid garden]

?

[pallid zinc]

Like, if you are using the .env or .config it will show

[lyric mountain]

Replit no longer uses .env, it uses a separate config menu

[sour swan]

Question (JavaScript): I have multiple objects that all relatively look the same, but some have a chain of objects in them, see examples
Normal object:

{
"type":{
    "kind":"SCALAR",
    "name":"String",
    "ofType":null
},

Abnormal object:

{
    "type":{
        "kind":"LIST",
        "name":null,
        "ofType":{
            "kind":"NON_NULL",
            "name":null,
            "ofType":{
                "kind":"SCALAR",
                "name":"Int",
                "ofType":null
            }
        }
    }
}

I need to get the name of the object, but in the abnormal objects its at a lower level. How can I go about grabbing the name of objects without having to check how many levels down it is?

Sorry if the question is a little weirdly typed out, deffo ask me for clarifications if needed

[lament rock]

let name = obj.name
let obj = result
while (obj && obj.name === null) {
obj = obj.ofType
name = obj.name
}

[spark flint]

Is it possible to fetch an interaction by its ID? I'm using discord-modals (not asking for help with this, just giving context) and on the modalSubmit event it returns the interaction ID but not the message object.

[lyric mountain]

I don't think modals are linked to messages, are they?

[spark flint]

True

I'm trying to make it so when a button is clicked, it shows the modal, then when submitted it will edit the embed in the original message with the button

[lyric mountain]

you could store the message id when someone press the button, and use it to edit the message later on

when (button is clicked) {
  store messageId
  show modal
  
  when (modal is finished) {
    message = get(messageId)
    edit message
  }
}

just example code in whatever lang that'd be

[spark flint]

i'm now thinking of storing a unique id for the button, then looking up in the db for the message etc

actually

i can store a custom ID for the modal, i could set the message id as that and not even have a db involved

[lyric mountain]

sure

[spark flint]

yep that worked

[lyric mountain]

[slender wagon]

let w1 = 3
let w2 = 1
let w3 = 2

how do i sort these variables from the smallest to the largest but still keep track of it

for example i could make it an array but it would just sort the numbers thus i wouldn't be able to keep track of which var it is

[rustic nova]

you could probably do that with a key/value thing

and just sort the values

[earnest phoenix]

AKA objects

[lyric mountain]

idk if js has it, but you could try to implement something akin to java's LinkedHashMap

which is a map but can be sorted

[slender wagon]

let workers = [
        {
            "workerName": "Grainger",
            "shift": 3
        },
        {
            "workerName": "GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR",
            "shift": 1
        },
        {
            "worker": "Idk",
            "shift": 2
        }
    ]
    workers.sort((a, b) => parseFloat(a.shift) - parseFloat(b.shift));

worked

: )

[earnest phoenix]

Why are you calling parseFloat() on a number

[slender wagon]

cuz stackoverflow

oh this guy was using it on a string

fixed

[lyric mountain]

I believe sort works even for numeric strings as long as it's below 10

then it starts acting sussy baka

[slender wagon]

what would i have to use then

[earnest phoenix]

There's no limit (except for the array element limit which is way too many that you wouldn't even reach it unless done purposefully)

[lyric mountain]

+a.shift \😄

[slender wagon]

hm?

[earnest phoenix]

Just use a.shift, no parsing or casting required

[lyric mountain]

• forces a string to be cast to number

[slender wagon]

yeah i did remove the parsing

[lyric mountain]

I was talking abt numeric strings

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah you can cast numeric strings to numbers using the unary plus operator, although I'd recommend using parseInt() (or parseFloat() depending on the case) since they're more verbose and readable rather than syntactic sugar which can be unreadable to others who are unaware of what unary operators do

[quartz kindle]

i prefer using Number(str) depending on the situation

[slender wagon]

        {
            "workerName": "Grainger",
            "shift": 3,
            "daysOff": [6,9]
        },

i am working on a automatic shift manager

[quartz kindle]

but its kinda funny that nobody uses String(n)

[slender wagon]

is the array on the daysOff ok?

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah

[slender wagon]

what i am trying to do is get all the requirements a certain worker want for example he has to go somewhere without ruining other workers days

[earnest phoenix]

Btw you don't need the quotation around the object keys unless you're in a JSON file

[earnest phoenix]

Usually parseInt() is faster than the global Number constructor, although you may have a specific case

[quartz kindle]

usually my tests say otherwise, but could be depending on the situation

because parseInt does a lot more than simply translating the type

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, depending on the case either way

[earnest phoenix]

My previous tests showed that parseInt() is faster, although that's probably changed now

[slender wagon]

parseInt do be running th egame

wait

i thought Number was 99

[quartz kindle]

lmao

implicit coercion much faster than explicit conversion

[sharp saddle]

it is impossible to use Replit specifically by android

Have you checked if message is an instance of your Message class?

Although I assume that would already be checked since you're using TypeScript

[sharp geyser]

For some reason it is not

[earnest phoenix]

Have you initialized a new instance of the class or just calling it right on the class like a static method?

import Message from '...';

// Instance
const message = new Message(...);

await message.send(...); // Ok

await Message.send(...); // TypeError Message.send is not a function
// As `send()` is a prototype method in your case and not a static method

[sharp geyser]

So I think I found the place where I want to manage what the data is typed as right

this.manager.client.emit(GatewayEvents[data.t], data.d); so I have this right here that will emit any event if it is found in the GatewayEvents object, but the data doesn't necessarily correspond with the event being emitted it is just 'any'

[sharp geyser]

Also no I have not done this

[quartz kindle]

you are emitting the raw discord data

[sharp geyser]

Yea, I am thinking here is where I wanna set what the data could be based on the event being emitted

[quartz kindle]

you want to type the raw data or convert it into one of your classes?

[sharp geyser]

I am thinking I should convert it so I can have the send method

[sharp geyser]

What is the difference between converting and just type casting it?

[quartz kindle]

like add types to the raw discord data

so you can have intellisense on message.content for example

basically what discord-api-types does

[sharp geyser]

Ah, whatever makes it easier. I just wanna make sure my methods will also be attached to the data or whatever so I can like send and such

[quartz kindle]

you need to convert it to your class then

like new Message(data.d)

and then attach all the data from data.d into your class

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm I see

Okay so that works, now I just need to figure out how to do that based on the event being triggered

I guess I can do a case for every event possible but that seems tedious no?

So I did it in a really stupid way but it works :^)

[quartz kindle]

you will need to do it for every single event type yes

[flat karma]

Hey y'all! Working on my first Discord bot in Python and I'm having issues with something. I'm part of a server where it's become a meme to ban and unban me at random, and it's a good inside joke for the moderators and I. I'm looking to expand the functionality and make it a bit of a game. So I'd like a bot that when it hears ?Fuzzy it randomly sees if I'm getting banned. The issue is that it seems like I'm required to pass a username to the ban command, when I'd really just like to always make it me without having to pass a name as an argument. I've tried messing around with it for a few hours now but I'm coming up with nothing. Here's my latest attempt:

`bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='?', case_insensitive=True )

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
print(f'{bot.user.name} has connected to Discord!')

@bot.command(name='Fuzzy')
@commands.has_any_role('Senior Admin', 'Admin', 'Moderator')
async def fuzzy_ban(ctx, member:discord.User=name):
#await ctx.send("Yo it's working")
await ctx.send("Banning Spark, probably")
await member.ban()
await member.unban()`

The name variable is currently set to a buddy of mine's Discord name for testing purposes in a server with just us.

Current error I get on running and trying the command is:
await member.ban() AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'ban'

Any ideas?

I'm just trying to get the ban working, then I'll work on the randomness of it - which should be relatively easy

I'm sure I'm missing some easy solution to this

[sharp geyser]

Would there be a reason why my lib is sending the message twice? I have it set so if the message received in the message create event author is a bot it won't respond with the Hello World message but for some reason after I made a change to the websocket shard class it now responds twice

[lament rock]

the event is probably being emitted twice

[sharp geyser]

Okay so ignore this literally just found the issue :^)

[sharp geyser]

Yea turns out I wasn't returning after emitting in the switch/case so the default was running as well

[lament rock]

break

[sharp geyser]

lol

[split hazel]

@quartz kindle i need a break from low level 💀

I should do what this guy is doing and make a discord lib

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[split hazel]

one with a specific aim

i see people mostly focus on performance/efficiency but i usually see it comes at a massive cost

(e.g. simplicity)

[quartz kindle]

make the slowest possible discord library

and make it use the maximum ram possible

[split hazel]

i cant it goes against my morals

[quartz kindle]

xD

[split hazel]

ive ran into another one of those "undebuggable" bugs in my os

[quartz kindle]

become a maintainer at tiny-discord

[split hazel]

interesting

i do really like your storing objects in a buffer concept so

have you measured metrics to see how it performs?

[quartz kindle]

im still finishing my binary serializer, i keep reworking parts of it over and over again

generally, serialization/deserialization is faster than json

but storing them in a buffer is a whole other story

my buffer storage project is currently shelved

i imagine it will be much slower than native objects/maps

[split hazel]

it is quite simple, all you need to do is fetch your guild user profile by ID and ban that instead of using parameters
ctx.guild.get_member(your_user_id) i believe is the syntax, then you can call things on it like .ban()

[split hazel]

are you storing them in a struct like format?

[quartz kindle]

the serialized object or the buffer storage?

[split hazel]

uh

[quartz kindle]

like, the serializer is just for converting an object to a buffer

storing multiple buffers in a map-like buffer structure is a separate project

[flat karma]

So I just tried that after some more Google Fu and I get back: "discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'ban'"

With the block now being:
async def fuzzy_ban(ctx): member = ctx.guild.get_member(<ID>) await ctx.send("Banning Spark, probably") await member.ban() await member.unban()

[split hazel]

im talking on whether you store the objects in the buffer as a "string" or a "struct" (aka all in a linear buffer)

[split hazel]

can you print the value of member? are you sure you are using the correct ID? also are you using the members intent if you know what that is? if not you should use await ctx.guild.fetch_member(ID) instead

[split hazel]

interesting way of parsing it

[flat karma]

Prints "None". I even just tried member = ctx.guild.get_member_named('<TheirName>') and still prints "None"

[split hazel]

what if the number is above 255? does it use more bytes?

[flat karma]

Not familiar with members intent

I'll try it with await

[quartz kindle]

yes, all data types are prefixed with a type byte that tells what kind of data follows it

the number of bytes in a given number is also included in the type byte

numbers from -32 to 64 can be represented in the type byte itself

the rest of the numbers require more bytes

basically its exactly the same as MessagePack does

but MessagePack only gives you stuff like uint8, uint16, uint32

mine always uses the exact number of bytes a number needs, never more

if a number is 24bit long, then it will use 3 bytes, not 4 as if it were int32

[split hazel]

i can imagine that gets really complicated quickly

[quartz kindle]

yeah i keep rewriting it over and over again

[split hazel]

have you considered making a node gyp type plugin

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[split hazel]

lower level languages deal with lower level objects much better and easily

at the cost of the object conversion between js and assembly of course

[quartz kindle]

its not worth it

[split hazel]

honestly i'd just make ints 4 bytes for everything and call it a day

[quartz kindle]

lmao

well the idea is being as space-efficient as possible

[split hazel]

i'll help out with the discord lib for sure but for your parsing lib i think i have to pass because i may lose my remaining sanity

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[split hazel]

I see the ACPI specification flashing before me during sleep

[lyric mountain]

hey tim, quick question

[quartz kindle]

most of the hard work is already done, i mean dont even get me started on string compression and char mapping

    _write5(data, start) {
        let temp = 0;
        let bits = 0;
        let end = start;
        for(let i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
            let c = data.charCodeAt(i);
            let small = false;
            if(c > 96 && c < 123) {
                c -= 97;
                small = true;
            } else if(c === 32) {
                c = 26;
                small = true;
            } else if(c === 45) {
                c = 27;
                small = true;
            } else if(c === 95) {
                c = 28;
                small = true;
            }
            if(small) {
                temp <<= 5;
                temp += c;
                bits += 5;
            } else if(c < 256) {
                temp <<= 5;
                temp += 30;
                temp <<= 8;
                temp += c;
                bits += 13;
            } else {
                temp <<= 5;
                temp += 31;
                temp <<= 16;
                temp += c;
                bits += 21;
            }
            while(bits >= 8) {
                bits -= 8;
                this._buffer[end++] = temp >> bits;
                temp &= (1 << bits) - 1;
            }
        }
        if(bits) {
            this._buffer[end++] = temp << (8 - bits);
        }
        return end - start;
    }

lmao

[lyric mountain]

let's say I have an array of 5 ints that won't go above 100 (guaranteed)
is it more efficient to pack them into spaces of 1 byte for each inside an integer or use actual arrays?

[pure stream]

my bot never told me my token
and i cant reset it because it asks a code
i never set up 2FA for my bot

[quartz kindle]

integer by an order of magnitude

[lyric mountain]

like, very much?

[quartz kindle]

an integer will cost you 8 bytes if stored as a double, plus whatever overhead the lang has

an array will cost basically 5x that minimum, plus the array overhead which is much larger than the number overhead

[sharp geyser]

you should contrib to my discord lib more like

[pure stream]

does anyone knos

[lyric mountain]

ic

[split hazel]

github? (if its public)

[quartz kindle]

the only issue is that if you're using js, you cant do bitwise on 5 byte numbers natively

[sharp geyser]

It is public yea

[lyric mountain]

nah, java

[quartz kindle]

although there are workarounds for that

should be fine then

also im pretty sure doing 2 bitwise operations is gonna be 100x faster than an array lookup

[split hazel]

where

[split hazel]

bitwise operations usually take under 1 clock cycle

[sharp geyser]

https://github.com/MistyyBoi/strife on my personal account rn but will later switch to its own org if it gets popular enough

[copper cradle]

wait

[split hazel]

memory reads take around 50-70 assuming no cache

[lyric mountain]

I'm asking bcuz my tcg has dodge/block chance for all cards, which can be influenced by other cards in the game

[copper cradle]

can operations take half a cycle?

[pure stream]

my bot never told me my token
and i cant reset it because it asks a code
i never set up 2FA for my bot

[split hazel]

yeah you can do multiple things in one cycle

[pure stream]

im dyin

[lyric mountain]

the array is of fixed size of 6 entries

[quartz kindle]

???

[lyric mountain]

1 for effects + 5 for each slot index

[flat karma]

Turns out it was my intents

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

[lyric mountain]

and currently I use arrays, but ik they aren't the most efficient I could get

[quartz kindle]

yeah you can fit that into a 6 byte number

[split hazel]

6 byte numbers sound so illegal

[quartz kindle]

its just an uint64 but only 6 bytes are used

lel

[split hazel]

ah

[pure stream]

i did not get my bot token

it did not give me it

[quartz kindle]

if you need more than 8 bytes you can always use bigint, does java have bigints?

[pure stream]

and i cant get it

[lyric mountain]

long

[pure stream]

why did they change it

[copper cradle]

I first read 6 bit and was like, HOW

[pure stream]

this sucks

[lyric mountain]

after long there's BigInteger, which is as big as your ram allows

[quartz kindle]

yeah, biginteger can do bitwise operations as well

you can store data there

but its probably much slower

[pure stream]

bruh

[quartz kindle]

your bot token is in your discord developers application

[pure stream]

what tf do i do

[pure stream]

where?

im under bot

[lyric mountain]

https://discord.com/developers/applications

[pure stream]

it says reset token

[lyric mountain]

yes

[craggy pine]

Click it

[lyric mountain]

you cant copy the token anymore

[quartz kindle]

yes, click reset token, and you get a new one

[pure stream]

no but that doesnt even work

i dont have 2fa for my bot

but it says i do

[copper cradle]

what do you mean that doesn't even work

[pure stream]

i dont have the da,m code

how tf do i get the code

[lyric mountain]

is your account 2fa enabled?

[pure stream]

ya

[lyric mountain]

that's the code

[pure stream]

but where

[lyric mountain]

your bot = your 2fa

[quartz kindle]

you forgot your 2fa?

[pure stream]

holup

[copper cradle]

the code you use to login

[pure stream]

how am i supposed to remember that

[lyric mountain]

you arent

[copper cradle]

that same code

[pure stream]

i use my phone number

[copper cradle]

where do you get it

[lyric mountain]

that's why u use an app to generate it

2fa codes expire each minute or so

[pure stream]

OH

i have that

[lyric mountain]

except the ones u got as backup codes

[quartz kindle]

when you login into discord, how do you login? doesnt it ask you for 2fa to login as well?

[pure stream]

holup

[copper cradle]

that's when it clicked

[pure stream]

it worked

ty guys

[pure stream]

i just use my phone

[lyric mountain]

well...nvm

[pure stream]

it works and its just easier

ty!

how do i add my bot to my server>

nvm

[sharp geyser]

btw speedy if you ever do contribute ty in advance <3

[split hazel]

mov eax, [bot]
mov ecx, [server]
add eax, ecx

[split hazel]

perhaps

i saw a lot of things you may want to improve early tho

like making a central handler for http requests

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm, yea that makes a lot of sense. I just have been mainly focused on actually getting this to work and honestly I am shocked I have not run into issues yet regarding errors from the discord gateway and shit

[sharp geyser]

Also, can you go more into depth on what you mean with this? I think I have a general concept of what you mean but I am also not entirely sure if we are thinking the same thing when you say 'central handler'

[split hazel]

i mean a function that will handle all and future requests, simplifying your api requests a lot

for example it will handle rate limits for you

and it will pre-fill all mandatory data like tokens

[sharp geyser]

Ah yea, that makes sense I thought you meant an entire separate class or smth

[split hazel]

so instead of doing request({method: "POST", ...}) you can make something like

discordAPI.post("/members", { ... });

[eternal osprey]

hey, would the guildmemberupdate event be triggered if a user stops his/hers nitro server boost?

[split hazel]

good question honestly dont know

there is a separate event for that right

[sharp geyser]

Ah yea, that makes a lot of sense

I am wondering if I should just have the post, get, delete, patch, etc methods in the RestManager class and then utilize those in the Structure classes to do what I need

but idk

[split hazel]

sure if you think it'd make your code cleaner

[eternal osprey]

client.on('guildMemberUpdate', (oldMember, newMember) => {
  if (oldMember.premiumSince !== newMember.premiumSince) {
    
  }
});``` well yeah I found this, pretty sure both member properties will change so it will work for both i guess.

I just don't have nitro so i can't test it. Anyone that knows an alternative to test this out?

[split hazel]

uh

buy nitro

[eternal osprey]

Smart

I don’t have friends so I rather buy nitro tbh

[spark flint]

how can I get the hex code from that?

[quartz kindle]

color.toString(16)

although that method will require certain corrections

color.toString(16).padStart(6, "0") would be more accurate

[sharp geyser]

What would be the most logical way to cache the channels the client currently has access to without spamming the api/gateway on ready (I am assuming on ready would be the best time to cache them anyways if there is a better way please do tell) Unless caching on GUILD_CREATE would be better?

[split hazel]

on ready discord sends you all of the channels and guilds I believe

you then choose whether you want to cache them or not

[sharp geyser]

Mmmm I see

I knew ready sends you the guilds as unavailable I didn't know they sent the channels as well

[split hazel]

if you don't cache everything you need to have some kind of fetch function

[quartz kindle]

the channels are included in each GUILD_CREATE

[sharp geyser]

So should I cache the guilds and channels on guild create?

[quartz kindle]

if you need them, yes

[split hazel]

that's really up to you but as a kind of required minimum you should cache the guilds

[quartz kindle]

its something that should be customizable

[sharp geyser]

It will be customizable

[split hazel]

always good to have a local copy of the guilds

[sharp geyser]

but by default it will cache the guilds & channels

[quartz kindle]

sure

[sharp geyser]

what is the difference between icon and icon_hash in the discord docs?

both say they return a hash

[wheat mesa]

I would assume that at least a role gets changed, since boosting a server gives you a nitro role that cannot be taken away I believe

Nevermind

Does not guarantee a role change

[sharp geyser]

ah ok

[quartz kindle]

@split hazelimagine making a json format that supports bigints of up to 2gb length

[wheat mesa]

isnt that what floating point types are for tho

to some extent of precision

since they support exponents

(or have I misunderstood something about how floating points work)

[quartz kindle]

thats what bigints are for, when you need more precision

[wheat mesa]

ah

[quartz kindle]

doubles only give you 53 bits of precision

bigint has arbitrary/infinite precision

a ~2mb bigint has 7 million digits in it

imagine a 2gb bigint

exdee

[proven lantern]

has anyone used sveltekit? how would i refactor the {#each loop into a function?

[quartz kindle]

you could put it into a separate component and import the component

or you could make a js function that outputs html string and call the function in there

but idk i havent used svelte yet

[proven lantern]

mmkay, i'll try putting in a different component. i dont think sveltekit lets functions return components

[quartz kindle]

you can do {@html yourvarhere}

and it lets you insert raw html

so you can do any html string building in pure js instead of svelte loops

[sharp geyser]

                    case GatewayDispatchEvents.GuildCreate: {
                        if(this.manager.client.options.cacheEnabled && this.manager.client.options.cache.guild) {
                            this.manager.client.guilds.set(data.d.id, new Guild(this.manager.client, data.d))
                            for(const channel of data.d.channels){
                                this.manager.client.channels.set(channel.id, channel)
                            }
                        }
                        this.manager.client.emit(GatewayEvents[data.t]);
                    }

Alright so I am going to go out on a limb and say this is not the most efficient way to do it right? Though with my knowledge this is the only way I see to do it

[quartz kindle]

do you want your Guild class to be available only if cached?

[sharp geyser]

Well yea, cause I want guilds, channels, roles to always be cached unless they say they don't want it to

[quartz kindle]

yeah but i mean

if cache is enabled, client.on("guildCreate") gives you a Guild object

if cache is disabled, then client.on("guildCreate") gives you a raw discord guild?

without any of your Guild class methods?

[sharp geyser]

Mmm, yea I don't think that is right

Even when not cached it should still have the guild class methods

[quartz kindle]

case GatewayDispatchEvents.GuildCreate: {
    const guild = new Guild(this.manager.client, data.d);
    if(this.manager.client.options.cacheEnabled) {
        if(this.manager.client.options.cache.guild) {
            this.manager.client.guilds.set(guild.id, guild);
        }
        if(this.manager.client.options.cache.channels) {
            for(const channel of guild.channels.values()){ // assuming the Guild class also processes channels
                this.manager.client.channels.set(channel.id, channel)
            }
        }
    }
    this.manager.client.emit(GatewayEvents[data.t], guild);
}

[sharp geyser]

yea I was planning on processing channels with the guild class but wasn't entirely sure on how i should do that

[quartz kindle]

import Channel from "./Channel.js"

class Guild {
  constructor(client, data) {
    if(client.options.cache.channels) {
      this.channels = new Map();
      for(const rawChannel of data.channels) {
        const channel = new Channel(client, rawChannel);
        this.channels.set(channel.id, channel);
      }    
    }
  }
}

[sharp geyser]

Alright thanks :)

That was very helpful I didn't think it would be that easy to do that

[fickle arch]

I give up doing that 1 hour after starting a project, after that I just remigratre my project to vsc lol

once tested djs v14 and it's pissing me off instantly

wtf it doesn't even wanna receive any event

[sharp geyser]

strife > djs /s

[boreal iron]

at least guild messages and direct messages are set as intents (4608) but I'm not able to receive any of it

just the ready event, nothing else anymore

[sharp geyser]

djs fucking stuff up?

[boreal iron]

idk regarding the debug log, the gateway connection is ok

[sharp geyser]

Well I am not having any troubles receiving those events so it def isn't a gateway issue, so it is likely djs just fucking their code up

[sharp geyser]

yea

[boreal iron]

whatever MessageContent is in that list

it doesn't exist in the offical docs

[sharp geyser]

Mmm, maybe they are changing some stuff around and haven't fully implemented it?

[boreal iron]

doesn't matter, i should still receive the message_create event

even without content

but I'm not gonna get anything except ready wtf

even reinviting and deleting the app didn't work

[sharp geyser]

mmm

[boreal iron]

which means it has to be djs, or not?!

I'm not sure how I could init the client wrongly

[sharp geyser]

Well it doesn't seem to be a gateway issue as far as I can tell I just tested it with my lib, so it is very likely a djs problem or smth they haven't documented that is required to be done before it works (which I would 100% believe as it has happened before)

[slender thistle]

Didn't they change the message event to something else in some version

[boreal iron]

you mean message to messageCreate?

[sharp geyser]

yea that was v13

[boreal iron]

yeah downgrading to v13 and it works

pfff...

what a bullshit

[pale vessel]

you need guilds intent

[sharp geyser]

you don't need it for messages I don't think

At least I didn't need it

[pale vessel]

i'm pretty sure it's required to receive guild messages now for discord.js, since it heavily relies on caching

[boreal iron]

Also tried that before with all intents, no success

[eternal solar]

client.on('message', message => 
{
        read = message.content;
        output = `${prefix}${read}`;
        message.channel.send(output);
})```
this starts an infinite loop, how to stop it after 1st execution?

[boreal iron]

Also direct messages don’t need guild intents

[pale vessel]

i didn't say direct messages

[sharp geyser]

He wasnt receiving any events tho

other than ready

[pale vessel]

well that's odd

[boreal iron]

It is indeed

[sharp geyser]

We tried helping and you never responded

[austere surge]

it says whats wrong...

[sharp geyser]

what is helpmsg

[celest gate]

it was working before

[sharp geyser]

ok cool not what I asked

[eternal solar]

btw can i get the id of message sender?

[sharp geyser]

ofc

message has an author prop which holds the sender's user object

[eternal solar]

hmm, i think it should work like this, right?

        var sender = message.author;
        read = message.content;
        output = `${prefix}${read}`;
        message.channel.send(output);
        message.channel.send(sender);

if i want to print author id

[sharp geyser]

try it and see

[boreal iron]

author is an object

[eternal solar]

thx, found a way to get author id and hence a way to stop repeating executions

[sharp geyser]

Okay so it does seem to be a gateway issue, I just relaunched my test bot with the v10 gateway and it was only receiving the ready event.

I then swapped back to v9 and it works fine

[sharp geyser]

C:\Users\dyeaa\Documents\github\misty\strife\src\client\rest\structures\Guild.ts:16
                        for (const rawChannel of data.channels.values()) {
                                          ^
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'values')

Alright so for some reason this is starting to act up now. I don't see why data.channels is undefined when in the scope of the if statement

import { BaseClient } from '../../BaseClient';
import { GuildData } from '../../../util';
import { BaseStore } from '../../../stores';
import { Channel } from './Channel';

export class Guild {
    public client: BaseClient;
    public channels = new BaseStore<string, Channel>();
    public id: string;
    constructor(client: BaseClient, data: GuildData) {
        this.id = data.id;
        this.client = client;

        if (client.options.cache.channels) {
            console.log(data.channels);
            for (const rawChannel of data.channels.values()) {
                const channel = new Channel(client, rawChannel);
                this.channels.set(channel.id, channel);
            }
        }
    }
}

But outside of it, there is no issue

[fickle arch]

SHARD_LIST what's the replacement for this in djs 13

scrapping some old code for future use

[boreal iron]

Weird… I don’t see why

[sharp geyser]

Discord probably fucked up on their side

v10 is still experimental iirc to be fair

[boreal iron]

Probably but I wonder if I’m the only one noticing

And discord didn’t fix it yet

I mean people are supposed to develop stuff to move to v10

[sharp geyser]

Mmm, maybe or again it could be something we don't know about yet and there is a weird requirement

[boreal iron]

Yeah I thought about that, too first but then a working gateway connection only receiving the ready event wouldn’t make sense, too

[sharp geyser]

true

[sharp geyser]

I am trying to find the easiest way to set the guild for the channel and everything i've tried so far doesn't seem to be working/logical when looking at it from the standpoint of the channel must belong to the guild it represents.

I was thinking of just setting the guild based on passing a guild to the channel's constructor when creating a new channel class instance but that wouldn't work for when I am setting the channel cache in the different channel events

[sharp geyser]

Show code alongside it please

[carmine summit]

do you all make a constructor with default values then define them later? or make a constructer with actual parameters then just do something like this.x = x;?

[sharp geyser]

Depends on the use case

Most of the time I find myself just using params tho and giving them values as I need em

[pine nova]

why does the {} brackets indentation pains me 💀

[sharp geyser]

Looks like what you'd do in C# always line breaking the brackets

[pine nova]

fr

[carmine summit]

should I use function foo({x, y}) {} or function foo(obj) {}? I believe they act the same

[sharp geyser]

Why do that in the first place?

Unless you are going to use the object for something then there is no need for foo({x,y})

Unless I am unaware of the benefits of doing so

[carmine summit]

do what?

[hybrid cargo]

It just does the same, the only difference is that you would have to access the x and y as obj.x , obj.y on the second method. While on the first, you can directly access the x and y since they are already destructured

[carmine summit]

i dunno.. do i want to access x and y directly or not?

[hybrid cargo]

I mean... that depends on you?

[carmine summit]

which is more commonly used?

[somber ridge]

depends on you

i use both

@quartz kindle you might know about this - I wonder if you can make a mail server in node?

like a proper server that receives emails

[quartz kindle]

i dont see why not

but i know nothing about email, its an old ass weird ass protocol that nobody understands

[split hazel]

i dont either

it is a weird protocol

just like ACPI and USB

too bad the whole world uses it and transitioning to something new could be difficult

[quartz kindle]

there are plenty of smtp libs for node

[split hazel]

yeah but thats for sending

what about receiving

unless it does both

idk email is so confusing

[quartz kindle]

it does both but doesnt have any storage, just emits an event

you need to combine it with an imap server

and some kind of storage

[split hazel]

what is imap for

i see so it just emits and receives

can you just skip an imap server and use your own database

it wont be accessible from external clients anyways only from a dashboard

[quartz kindle]

possibly yes

imap is for accepting third party clients like thunderbird to sync with your server

also take a look a this (although its old af) https://github.com/Flolagale/mailin

[split hazel]

thunderbird started syncing my entire years worth of email as soon as i linked my gmail 💀

had to delete it

[quartz kindle]

yeah thats what it does

having your entire email history available offline is its main goal
