[pearl verge]

that is why i asked about if i give credits

anywhere possible on bot

[quartz kindle]

if it looks like an exact copy, its usually not allowed

so just change it enough that it doesnt look like an exact copy

even if just tweaking the bot's text responses

you can give credits anywhere you like, but thats not what reviewers usually look for

they just dont want multiple copies of the exact same bots on the website

[pearl verge]

oh ok

so credits dont matter?

[manic basin]

maybe try https://github.com/long2ice/asyncmy

[dry imp]

okay thanks

[radiant kraken]

use flexboxes

[spark flint]

I ditched that

Because the Sonos api doesn’t accurately return duration

[slender wagon]

for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++){
        workers[i].shift = i
        console.log(workers[i].name + "'s shift for tomorrow:" + workers[i].shift)
    }

how do i pass the console log out of the for loop function

[cinder patio]

whut

[onyx turtle]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows the formatting of the website? I'm trying to make a good looking description 😄

[dry imp]

wdym by "the formatting"

[onyx turtle]

the lines, bold font, header for example https://top.gg/bot/235148962103951360

[dry imp]

the description supports html, css and markdown

[onyx turtle]

ah thanks ❤️

[celest gate]

does anyone know how to get mobile status in the bot

[earnest phoenix]

Requirements for uploading the bot in discord bot list?

[celest gate]

no

but i want to

[split hazel]

needs to be turkish

[spark flint]

rate this

[spiral veldt]

Oh nvm

[split hazel]

your bot has to be in the language turkey

[earnest phoenix]

is it important?

[split hazel]

not really

[earnest phoenix]

Is there any requirement or not?

[split hazel]

yes

[earnest phoenix]

then tell me pls

[split hazel]

turkey

ok

[tulip cradle]

[lyric mountain]

if the code has a license you do need to give credits somewhere in the code if it asks for

not on the bot itself

[timber fractal]

So for example I would have 2 div elements, with a p element inside. One element's content is "Item 1" and the other one's content is "Item 11", but the second element is wider than the first one because it has a 2 digit number, instead of a 1 digit number. How could I make sure both elements have the same width?

[lyric mountain]

pad

or fixed width

or better yet, use an enclosing div to be the maximum width, and set them items to fit said div

that way the largest div will define the width of all items

[unreal olive]

i need chat bot api

[winter pasture]

There are a lot of them out there. What do you need it for?
Support related chat, or more just general conversation?

For support / targeted chat I have used https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow a lot before with good success. It does require some time to integrate, train and configure tho

[unreal olive]

k

[vivid fulcrum]

pov you have to implement localisation in your app

[timber fractal]

as general conversation api, i would recommend https://api.popcat.xyz/chatbot?msg=test

[pearl verge]

ok

the code already has the credits

[quartz kindle]

nice croatian

[pale vessel]

imagine being able to fluently translate your native language to english

or i guess vice versa

[feral aspen]

I've installed Ubuntu on my laptop, and I have Ubuntu and Kali-Linux on my main (VM), what are some cool experiments to try on my laptop?

I remember reading how people would crack the password of their laptop administrator account or something, what else?

[quartz kindle]

go wardriving

[feral aspen]

Do I need a cantenna?

I remember I can like make a home-made one. 💀

But what else can I try on my laptop (to hack into it)? Laptop IS using Ubuntu so I guess I can crack the password with my main machine but need to figure out how to do so.

[lyric mountain]

ohno

[lone mist]

down the rabbit hole

How big is your npm directory already?

[quartz kindle]

oh nein

[ancient nova]

if I'm making a warning system what's the best way of going about storing the warns?

I'm currently using better-sqlite3 and was wondering if I could also use that but not sure]

I was thinking about using a collection but it would be pointless once the bot is restarted

how do I actually structure something like this again?
I want to be able to get the warn by it's ID like so const warned = warns.find(ID) and then use it with warned.warnReason

[sharp pine]

hi all! I was wondering if it's possible to set a command that will assign a role to a poster when enough people react to a post with a certain emoji (kind of like a starboard, but for people, or like a reverse reaction role)

I couldn't find a bot that does this already, but if you know of one that works too

ex: I post a dumb meme. 4 people react to it with and that gives me a @fallen spear role

oh shoot sorry I did not expect that to be a name lol

[hollow depot]

why do i get this error even if i have this header?

headers: {
            'Access-Control-Allow-Origin':'*',
            'Content-Type': 'application/json',
          }```

sorry not familiar with web stuff

[simple stump]

I'm trying to display an image and then modify it with JS in the browser. However, if I just display the raw URL, I get an error in console saying it's forbidden. What's strange though is that when sending requests from Node, the image can be downloaded without issues. But since I'm attempting to bulk download images, it is more efficient to display the images on the web and then modify it using JSDOM rather than downloading the images and then displaying them. TLDR, how can I fix the issue of images being forbidden? Is there a way to bypass this without downloading the images first?

[simple stump]

Is this Express?

[hollow depot]

yup

[quartz kindle]

yes its possible

[sharp pine]

oh excellent

can you help me figure out the command and/or refer me to the right documentation

[simple stump]

const express = require('express');
let port = 3000;

const cors = require('cors');
const app = express();

const corsOptions = {
    origin: '*',
    methods: ['POST', 'GET', 'PATCH', 'DELETE', 'OPTIONS'],
    allowedHeaders: ['Content-Type', 'Authorization']
};

app.use(cors(corsOptions));
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
    res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', your_host_like_localhost:3000);
    res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, DELETE');
    res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'X-Requested-With,content-type');
    res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
    next();
});

app.listen(port);

Try that

It's scuffed but works for me

Or wait

I misread the error

[simple stump]

https://144.172.71.157:8000 denies requests from outside sources I believe. Similar to my issue actually.

[hollow depot]

wait my bad, i said yes cause im used to express, no im not using it, im using fetch (sorry im too used to express)

[quartz kindle]

preflight requests are done with the HEAD method, so you need to add a route for that, or use a middleware like eltik is suggesting

[simple stump]

Yeah I misread the error

[simple stump]

^

[hollow depot]

thank you :)

[simple stump]

Essentially the host you're sending requests to denies requests from outside sources. If you were to try this in Node for example it would probably work, but in the browser it doesn't. I myself am trying to bypass this but the best option is probably to send requests from the backend, then display it via Express.

[quartz kindle]

the url you are fetching is yours? is it a server you own and control?

[hollow depot]

yup, i host it on my vps, it succesfully accepts requests from other programs like thunder client (basically postcode built-in vscode)

[quartz kindle]

so yes, you need to add a head route

what server are you using?

[hollow depot]

its an express server (if thats what ur asking lol)

[quartz kindle]

then add app.head(...)

along with your app.get(...)

[hollow depot]

ok, will try that now, thank you :))

[quartz kindle]

the head route does not need to send any content

only headers

[sharp pine]

i hate it when i forget to hit 'reply'

[hollow depot]

still same error

[quartz kindle]

show code

[quartz kindle]

you need to listen to the reaction events and add count the number of reactions on a message

[hollow depot]

so i added this in the server file

[quartz kindle]

you need to send the response lol

[sharp pine]

thanks. would that be similar to using reactioncollector? https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ReactionCollector

[hollow depot]

i am indeed stupid

[sharp pine]

(sorry, v new to discord bots)

[hollow depot]

ok wait, this goes in the server or client that makes the request? cause in the server doesnt seem to work, but in the client i am using fetch so it would be a little different

[quartz kindle]

the server

[quartz kindle]

reaction collectors are more indicated for listeing to reactions on a specific message, ie a message from a command

[hollow depot]

mh ok, then its not working

[quartz kindle]

if you want to listen to reactions on any message, better use the event

[sharp pine]

thanks

[quartz kindle]

try this

app.all('/*', function(req, res, next) {
  res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
  next();
});

note, this has to be placed before app.get(...)

[hollow depot]

kk, ill try now

nope, still the same

[quartz kindle]

show full code

and show full error again

the error might be slightly different, but look mostly the same

[hollow depot]

mh wait, mine is a post request, could need nomething different?

[hollow depot]

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const http = require('http');
const port = process.env.PORT || 8080;

var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(bodyParser.json());

app.all('/*', function(req, res, next) {
    res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
    next();
});
app.post('/', function(req, res) {
    stuff here
});

app.listen(port);
console.log('API server started on ' + port);

wait ill remove the stuff in app.post

[wheat mesa]

we love CORS

[quartz kindle]

the error is different, so that means the headers are working

you need to add res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "*");

[hollow depot]

in the request i already have that header

and also in the app.post()

[quartz kindle]

cors is a server thing, not a client thing

doesnt matter what you have in the request

and cors preflight requests are sent via OPTIONS, not GET nor POST

[ancient nova]

does anyone wanna read the code?

[spark flint]

const client = new Client({
    intents: intents, partials: ["MESSAGE", "REACTION"],
    allowedMentions: { parse: ["roles"] }
});```

roles aren't being pinged

[feral aspen]

Unless you're pinging the role, incorrectly?

[spark flint]

nope

https://cdn.myprojects.lol/🎏🎏🐰📼😆.png

[feral aspen]

Not sure.. but try seeing if you need any other partial required, otherwise, you may need to wait for another answer.

[split hazel]

in nodejs how do i check if a duplex stream has ended?

[simple stump]

How do you execute a script, then wait until it's finished? For example:

for (let i = 0; i < pages.length; i++) {
  axios.get("some_website").then(res => {
    // do some task and send lots of requests
  });
}
if (finished_requests) {
  return;
}

Basically, I want to send requests to a website. But since awaiting would take too long, sending a bunch of requests, then waiting for all of them to be finished is more efficient. But I'm not sure how to check if all the requests are done. Is there a better way to do do this?

[ancient nova]

uhhh what I used a function and somehow instead of executing it just pasted itself there?

like how does that even happen

[simple stump]

Send your code (the part that sends the message)

[ancient nova]

can anyone explain

[feral aspen]

Promises. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise

[simple stump]

yeah i just realized that. thanks. looking into promise.all rn

[ancient nova]

should I await it then?

didn't help

[feral aspen]

Maybe you can find this helpful: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22198883/check-if-nodejs-cleartextstream-stream-is-ended

[simple stump]

"The warn ID is
Is there an end " at the end of the string

[ancient nova]

other functions work fine what's going on

[feral aspen]

You didn't even send the full code?

[ancient nova]

what do you mean I have

[ancient nova]

yes, it wouldn't have worked otherwise

[feral aspen]

The warn ID is <code> and you sent me the code for the part before that, so.. ?

Can you send the full code?

[ancient nova]

do you want the function module's code because I sent all there is to the warn command

return message.channel.send(👍 Warned ${member.user.tag || "Unable to Fetch User"} for ${toProperCase(reason) || "No Reason Provided"} The Warn ID is ${generateID});

oh now I see what is wrong

[feral aspen]

You sent the code of the function, and not really called the function itself, I believe.

[feral aspen]

You don't really need to be over-complicating yourself, here's what's best you can do, which is something I personally did as well:
On your warnStructure variable, create three properties, content, serverID, and userID:

- For content, it will list an array of objects whereas each object will have two properties, the moderatorID which stores the moderator who's warning the user, and the reason on why the moderator is warning the user.
- For serverID, you will store where the warning took place.
- For the userID, you will store who's the user who's getting warned.

This is an example on how the data structure looks like: https://cdn.hamoodihajjiri.com/VqpsZrskyl
However, this is via MongoDB but you should have a slight idea.

[simple stump]

If I were to use Promise.all, would each Promise be resolved in order? For example:

let a = new Promise(1);
let b = new Promise(2);
Promise.all([a, b]); // <- 1, 2; not 2 1

I’m probably not understanding Promises correctly, but hopefully this makes sense.

[quartz kindle]

no, it would not be in order

[winter pasture]

Isnt the spec that the array should be in order?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise/all

Returned values will be in order of the Promises passed, regardless of completion order.

[quartz kindle]

i mean, yes, the result is in order

but the execution/completion is not

[winter pasture]

Ah yeah, I may have misunderstood the question

[quartz kindle]

or i did

[winter pasture]

Who knows, they have all the information they need now

[ancient nova]

I'm using enmap

I even tried talking to the creator they just ignored me I'm fucking done

no matter what I do this shitty ass <enmap>.filter function returns just "{}" or straight up undefined

[split hazel]

the enmap owner 💀

they're so egotistical

[ancient nova]

it's not funny bro 😭

[ancient nova]

you're talking about me?

[split hazel]

she thinks she knows it all

no

the owner of enmap

evie

[ancient nova]

ong she kinda tried to help me, but then just straight up stopped responding

every single time I asked for an example or to show me how to do it she didn't do anything I even gave her the entire code for the command

[quartz kindle]

she doesnt like helping beginners

[split hazel]

she loves doing it then 💀

[quartz kindle]

that code looks very wrong tho

[split hazel]

i find her to be very hostile a lot of the time

[ancient nova]

I accidentally started an argument with her, I don't wanna be rude but she literally jokes about my lack of understanding of her package

[ancient nova]

can you please tell me what is wrong

I've been at this for like 5 or 6 hours at this point I just wanna finish

[quartz kindle]

this is literally like a description of how the function works

the kind of stuff you see in documentations

not the actual code you should write

im pretty sure enmap's filter is exactly the same as collection's filter

[ancient nova]

I said that she doesn't like helping people and that her server lacks support and got banned

[quartz kindle]

i mean, she is not wrong

[cinder patio]

I mean the code in the screenshot can be correc

[quartz kindle]

free software does not include any kind of support, if you find an author that is willing to help you with using their software, then you're in luck

[ancient nova]

        const filterResults = warnstorage.filter(value => value[0] === member.user.id);
``` this is my filterResults right now, I'm like 99% sure I've done it right

[ancient nova]

well if I ever publish a free package I'm definitely not gonna be like her

[ancient nova]

I know, I just wanted to make sure I tried everything before deciding to drop the bot

[quartz kindle]

i agree with that sentiment and i do my best to help people who use mine, but that doesnt mean everyone should do it as well

[quartz kindle]

you can console.log value to see if value actually is what you expect it to be

[solemn latch]

cough cough cloudflare

zero support unless you pay 👀

[ancient nova]

well if a person is using your package for the first time and you shit on them for not being able to use it then that is a problem

[quartz kindle]

well support for big companies ofter comes from the communities that use them anyway

not directly from them

[ancient nova]

I spent 2 hours reading through the docs

went through them like 5 times

[solemn latch]

true

[ancient nova]

I have an output command

[quartz kindle]

its definitely not a nice thing to do, but its still their right

[ancient nova]

let's see what it gives me

should I stringify?

[quartz kindle]

you could have also caught them at a bad moment

[ancient nova]

that's not a reason to make somebody else's day worse

[quartz kindle]

but people are like that

[ancient nova]

as expected

doesn't work

[quartz kindle]

that means you are getting a Map object

[ancient nova]

tried also using Object.entires to resolve instead of stringify

[quartz kindle]

yeah because thats not how Maps work

Maps use .set and .get

[ancient nova]

well the other method that uses .get works but .get is used for a single value and I want to fetch every single warn from a person

[quartz kindle]

then you're doing something wrong with how you store the data

[ancient nova]

    // Check whether to list variables or get a variable by ID.
    if (!member) {
        // Declare our embed.
        warningsEmbed = new MessageEmbed();
        
        // Get variable by ID.
        const filterResults = warnstorage.get(args[0]);
        if (!filterResults) return message.channel.send("This user does not have any warnings!");
        
        // Resolve our results
        const resolvedResults = filterResults; //JSON.stringify(filterResults);
        
        // Fetch warned user and the person who warned.
        const warnedUser = await message.guild.members.cache.get(resolvedResults[0]);
        const personWhoWarned = await message.guild.members.cache.get(resolvedResults[1]);
        
        // Return embed
        warningsEmbed.setTitle(`Z3RO Warn System (ID: ${args[0]})`);
        warningsEmbed.addField("Warned User", warnedUser.user.tag);
        warningsEmbed.addField("Reason", resolvedResults[2]);
        warningsEmbed.addField("Moderator", personWhoWarned.user.tag);
        
        return message.channel.send({embeds: [warningsEmbed] });
    } else {
        // Declare our embed.
        warningsEmbed = new MessageEmbed();
        
        // Get variable by ID.
        const filterResults = warnstorage.filter(value => value[0] === member.user.id);
        if (!filterResults) return message.channel.send("This user does not have any warnings!");
        
        // Resolve our results
        const resolvedResults = JSON.stringify(filterResults);
        
        // Try sending all warning IDs
        return message.channel.send("Fetched every warn ID: " + resolvedResults + "\nCount:" + resolvedResults.length);
    }

the first statement with the !member works

anything after else doesn't

do you want to see how I store the enmap data?

[quartz kindle]

how did you store the warnings?

[ancient nova]

    // Prevent people from using the command for now.
    if (message.author.id !== process.env.OWNER) return message.channel.send("Command isn't finished yet");

    // Check for the valid permissions.
    if (message.author.id !== process.env.OWNER && !message.member.permissions.has("MANAGE_MESAGES")) return message.channel.send("You do not have enough permissions to warn.");

    // Fetch the warned user.
    const member = message.mentions.members.first() || message.guild.members.cache.get(args[0]) || message.guild.members.cache.find(r => r.user.username.toLowerCase() === args.join(' ').toLocaleLowerCase()) || message.guild.members.cache.find(r => r.displayName.toLowerCase() === args.join(' ').toLocaleLowerCase());
    if (!member) return message.channel.send("You have to mention a valid user to warn.");

    // Prevent people from warning themseleves
    if (member.user.id === message.author.id) return message.channel.send("You can't warn yourself.");

    // Fetch the reason.
    let reason = args.slice(1).join(" ");
    if (reason.length < 1) reason = "No Reason Provided";

    // Load the guilds settings.
    const settings = getSettings(member.guild);

    // Store the warn information
    const generateWarnedID = await generateID(5);
    warnstorage.set(generateWarnedID, [member.user.id, message.author.id, reason]);

    // Show confirmation
    return message.channel.send(`:thumbsup: Warned **${member.user.tag || "Unable to Fetch User"}** for **${toProperCase(reason) || "No Reason Provided"}** The Warn ID is **${generateWarnedID}**`);

the specific line is the one that uses warnstorage.set

[quartz kindle]

what does generateID return?

a string?

[ancient nova]

yeah 5 chars long string

example: f8aj3

[quartz kindle]

ok, so when you use warnstorage.get("f8aj3") you get an array of [user id, author id, reason]

[ancient nova]

yep

[quartz kindle]

so when you do warnstorage.filter(value => value[0] === user id) you get a sub-enmap of those entries

[ancient nova]

sub? what does that mean?

[quartz kindle]

like a filtered enmap

its still an enmap, but it has everything else removed

[ancient nova]

yeah I want to filter the enmap by user id

[user id, author id, reason]
^ by doing

[quartz kindle]

so you still need to get the values from it, as if it were a normal enmap

[ancient nova]

args[0]

[ancient nova]

then filter

wait

how would I write this?

[quartz kindle]

for example, if warnstorage is an enmap of 10 entries

and you do filtered = warnstorage.filter(...)

and you match 5 entries

then filtered is an enmap of 5 entries

its still an enmap

[ancient nova]

then how do I resolve it?

[quartz kindle]

you can use .map for example

[ancient nova]

omg okay give me a second

[quartz kindle]

which transforms it into something else

[ancient nova]

I literally love u if that works

[ancient nova]

into what?

[quartz kindle]

for example warnstorage.filter(...).map(value => value[2])

would give you an array of warning reasons

[ancient nova]

how would I get the key?

[quartz kindle]

evie's docs say that the function is identical to array.map

[ancient nova]

the thing I generate with the warn command?

[quartz kindle]

so the key would be the second param

(value, key) =>

[ancient nova]

okay thanks let me try this

I literally can't believe she just didn't say that I needed to do .map at the end. that could've saved me 4 hours

😭

[ancient nova]

it doesn't work for the key but it does work for the value

doing key => key just returns all three params

[quartz kindle]

show code

[ancient nova]

actually scrap that, it works my syntax was just wrong

I'm trying to format it like

field0 = ID then field0 reason and who warned

[quartz kindle]

and both key and value return the full array?

[ancient nova]

nono it works, I was just hoping it would return an array where I can do array[0] for the key and array[1] for the value

[quartz kindle]

yeah, then just return [key, value[0]]

[ancient nova]

yeah but can I not make the value be an array too? I could double box it

[key, [value]]
then I would do value[1][int] to look through the value array

would that work?

[quartz kindle]

wut

[ancient nova]

okay okay let me explain

I have that map right

I want it to output an array with the key and then a second array with the 3 values, so 2 IDs and the reason

[quartz kindle]

ah then just do what you already have

=> [key, value]

[ancient nova]

hmm that doesn't appear to work though

they all appear mapped as if you used forEach but I just called the map function and it shows everything that is stored there

[vivid fulcrum]

eyy i got my CI/CD working

[cinder patio]

is that github?

[vivid fulcrum]

yup

gh actions

[cinder patio]

why does it look different

[vivid fulcrum]

using a different theme

[ancient nova]

this looks good ngl

[quartz kindle]

well the map function returns an array of whatever you return inside the map function

so if you return [key, value]

then the end result is gonna be [[key, value], [key, value], [key, value]]

[ancient nova]

yeah I get u

I fixed that by doing 2 separate maps

[ancient flint]

Hey! Do you guys know if its currently possible for a discord bot to start a youtube together activity and start to play a video? Would be really cool for my bot but i cant find anything online. It might be possible using some kinda api request stuff. But idk

[ancient nova]

youtube banned the use of bots to stream videos beacuse it breaks their ToS

though I'm pretty sure they won't mind if you're aren't making the bot paid in any way

[ancient flint]

I mean using youtube together

Can a bot add a video to the waiting list

[ancient nova]

I'm not quite sure I only ever streamed music through the bot

[ancient flint]

I also cant find any like api references, i might try to use like chrome devtools to see if i can reverse engineer the endpoints it uses

[ancient nova]

good luck, just make sure not to get DMCA'd lol

[ancient flint]

Its not for a public bot its for a server, so i dont think its gonna be an issue

[ancient nova]

yeah if it's not public all good

``` I'm trying to write a command to delete the warns, I'm using `<enmap>.remove(ID);` for it but even though I've got no error it doesn't delete from the DB

For some reason I want to switch to rust, even tho I have no clue about rust, just because it sounds so speedy and memory efficient. The decades it would take tho

[scenic kelp]

unless you're needing the performance then you really shouldn't

by that logic you should switch to writing everything in asm because you can optimize stuff better

use the language you're most familiar with, chances are you'll be the most productive with it and write the best code with it

[wheat mesa]

I agree 100%

[lyric mountain]

Fun fact: the fastest language is the one you know the most

A good python code can easily win against a bad assembly code

[quartz kindle]

anything can win against bad assembly

just look at movfuscator

[lyric mountain]

Like, 99 out of 100 times u ain't gonna write better low level code than a compiler

A big mistake is trying to outsmart something made to otimize your code

[quartz kindle]

kurwa outsmarted

[lyric mountain]

Who kurwa?

[wheat mesa]

(Although it is fun to make things in optimized languages to learn)

[vivid fulcrum]

i've been awake for almost 24 hours doing my final project

for school

that i have to turn in

otherwise i'll fail

and oh boy

i'm starting to hallucinate and i can't even code anymore

[worn sonnet]

How can I produce icons such as these ones
I'm using react-icons to get Icons and chakra-ui

or do I have to write custom CSS for this?

[split hazel]

yeah but sometimes the compiler optimisations are limited by the ABI spec

I also see the support for compilation with use of different instruction sets for better performance is often limited

that's due to gccs mission to work on any platform

(ignoring architecture of course)

but yeah most of the time it's better code because it can't mess up like a human

god humans are such hopeless creatures

[near stratus]

Those icons are called FiGithub, FiLinkedin, FiTwitter .........
Just set background-color: black and color: white and they should look like that
IDK how they're done in chakre tho, google it

[worn sonnet]

This is the outup

Those are kinda like outline

[near stratus]

This one, not the one you're using

[worn sonnet]

Oh those are FI

[near stratus]

yea

[near stratus]

There's VscGithubAlt too that looks same with thinner lines

[worn sonnet]

Thanks but unfortunately they don't have discord one I guess

what does fi and fa actually mean?

[near stratus]

fi => Feather icons
fa => font awesome

https://react-icons.github.io/react-icons/icons?name=fi
https://react-icons.github.io/react-icons/icons?name=fa

[worn sonnet]

Thanks just checked and there are many more to play with

[raw nest]

I use pycord and I want to delete a message after 5min. It all works but the problem is with persistent. Like when the bot restarts the buttons etc. don't work anymore (that's clear) and the message also doesn't get deleted after 5min.
I have this:

        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, view=view)
        await asyncio.sleep(5) # Will be 300 in prod
        await interaction.delete_original_message()

How can I make a persistent delete or something similar?

[split hazel]

ignore my deleted messages

that's because when you sleep it's only present when the bot is running when you restart it it will be forgotten

[split hazel]

the best way is to just keep the bot running without it restarting often otherwise you'll need to save that "sleep state" to a database somewhere where upon restart you can restore the sleep and interaction

[raw nest]

Yes it will be up most of the time but f.e. when there‘s an update etc.

[split hazel]

how I see other bots do it is only restart when there's a small amount of active prompts or none at all

[raw nest]

I have this input which is supposed to be a equation eg. x^3 + 3x^2 - x + 3 now I want to make this into a function so I can further use it to find the zero point(s) and other stuff. How would I turn this string into the form:

function equation(x) {
  return (x^3 + 3x^2 - x + 3)
}

[floral nexus]

for game/economy bots, would it be better to use regular or slash commands

[tulip ledge]

I use slash for mine

[lunar palm]

I'd use slash with ephemeral responses, so users don't clutter up channels using commands.

[floral nexus]

ty for the advice

[earnest phoenix]

So you want to convert the aforementioned example equation to a function? If so you can use the global Function constructor and providing the input equation to evaluate on call:

const equation = new Function('x', `return ${/* equation */}`);

or:

function equation(x) {
  return eval(/* equation */);
}

[cinder patio]

keep in mind this is dangerous

[earnest phoenix]

If the input equation can be arbitrary entered by users then this is extremely unsafe, and I would recommend rather parsing the equation yourself and building the function string

[tulip ledge]

ah yeah parsing would be better

thanks

would also allow for easier factorisation

[split hazel]

not as dangerous as a c array without boundary checks

hii guys, so i have simple message embed on my bot, and I want to make my bot edit specific part of the message every x time. example: every 24h.
Problem is that i dont exactly know how should I do that, here is part of the code i have:

i need to edit time part in the embed description

btw mintime is not important at all soo just skip it

[split hazel]

@earnest phoenix huh?

[earnest phoenix]

Are you using a library?

[split hazel]

yeah

just thought that go error is very unusual

[earnest phoenix]

It wouldn't be unusual if the library is somewhat written in Go, if something is wrong in the aforementioned library I suppose

[split hazel]

yeah im using smtp-parser

when receiving some emails the connection resets 💀

will file an issue (hope the github isnt dead)

[stiff dust]

Hi I want to change Channel Category but when I use setParent it will go to the top of the category how can I move it to the buttom?

[split hazel]

any tips on tracing where that error is coming from?

[earnest phoenix]

Well the stacktrace shows the files those errors are thrown from, and exactly where the deadlock occurs

Unless it's from somewhere else, which is not easy to track down whatsoever

[split hazel]

i see

just curious what is the best way to receive "string binary" and store it?

im doing this

but it feels illegal 💀

have a feeling the error is because of something else

[earnest phoenix]

Hmm, what exactly is the stream here? As in what type of stream is it?

[proven lantern]

const mailData = [];
...
mailData.push(data);

[split hazel]

i wouldnt know maybe you can find out (i logged the stream) https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/ba3656d0103444e2b459c879bb960a5f

[earnest phoenix]

Oh it's a passthrough, then yeah what you're currently doing is fine and the best way mostly

[split hazel]

it do be passing through

[earnest phoenix]

The love passing through your heart

[split hazel]

yea:(

i think i know why its timing out

(resetting)

i havent yet tested my database on receiving and sending large amounts of data

[earnest phoenix]

Hmm, that's probably the reason

[split hazel]

yeah its probably shitting itself for some reason 💀

should be a good test

hm thats working fine not sure what it is then

very fast too

it is worryingly fast

i think 1500000 bytes worth of uwus was a bit too much

bruh why did i set the max packet size to 1mb

thats goofy

[quartz kindle]

uwu

[split hazel]

i underestimated how much data my database can handle 💀

it is officially production ready time to deploy discord on it

just dont worry about the fact there arent any joins or advanced string queries

no one needs those anyways

finally my tcp handling code is robust

[quartz kindle]

xD

[split hazel]

right as i say that

this really isnt too different from osdev but instead of a segmentation fault you get random undefined behaviour

@lyric mountain you went all out on that PR for misty damn

[sharp geyser]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

tbh, I had to write it twice cuz I mistakenly wrote git rm -rf . instead of git rm -rf --cached .

and I kinda learned something new from reading misty code

I didn't know %-20s was a thing

[sharp geyser]

what that I am an idiot

👀

Waffle told me bout that

[lyric mountain]

to unadd added git files

[quartz kindle]

you gave up on discord-js and started discord-java?

[lyric mountain]

since I had to reload .gitignore

[sharp geyser]

No, I am not ever doing a lib in java

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[sharp geyser]

also I am still working on my ts lib just slowly

I got angry when channel cache was not working for guilds

😔

[sharp geyser]

jetbrains made that gitignore themselves and put it someplace werid I didn't even know it existed

[wheat mesa]

lucky for you, my ap cs class had an entire unit on printf

[sharp geyser]

Fuck swing waffle

[wheat mesa]

just puts the spaces on the right side of the string instead of the left

[sharp geyser]

the docs are confusing

:c

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[lyric mountain]

oh btw, a thing that might be useful, u can use %1$s or any other number for positional replacements

so u dont need fancy libs or repeating the same thing many times

hi

[tired panther]

I am currently building a website and do not want to use any express server..
How can I redirect https://website.com/invite to a given link?
(using Apache)

• Does rewriteCond work for that?

[spark flint]

just be lazy like me

make a folder called invite

add a file called index.html

use HTML meta tag redirecting

that also allows you to use things like google analytics

[split hazel]

@quartz kindle right I want to add fragmentation prevention to my db now but don't know how

right now all I have is a file which stores each record and fixed size values, with strings being a pointer to a location in another file where the records aren't fixed size

a full out solution would be to every once a while, create 2 new files, copy over all records that aren't deleted and for strings create the entries as you go

I can add record reusing where inserting will overwrite a deleted record but that doesn't really solve the string problem

and it breaks the order of insertion

why haven't modern operating systems yet figured out a way to delete data in between files

[boreal iron]

You can simply use a RewriteRule or Redirect in the virtual host of your website.com redirecting the path (invite) to your target

Both work

[delicate zephyr]

better yet if you use cloudflare just use page rules rofl

[vivid fulcrum]

use the fetch api

iirc you post this object

[shrewd shell]

Hello there! discord bot makers, I have a question for you, how can I make some commands in my bot be used with top.gg voting obligation?

[winter pasture]

You can listen for incoming vote webhooks, then store it in your database: https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/
Then in your command handler, check if they have voted within X amount of hours then allow/disallow them from using the command

[shrewd shell]

thank you

[winter pasture]

You could also use an API call to check https://docs.top.gg/api/bot/#individual-user-vote, but is more likely to rate-limit

[shrewd shell]

ok

[turbid geyser]

music bots get banned?

[winter pasture]

By us? If so, no. By discord? Yeah, they dont verify music bots anymore

[turbid geyser]

k

[winter pasture]

Well correction to the message above, they dont verify music bots that use YouTube, Spotify, SoundCloud etc. Breach of their terms

[orchid otter]

Oh really 👀

[winter pasture]

I mean, it is against YouTube, Soundcloud and Spotify's terms of service by redistributing their content. So better not do it 🤷‍♂️

[orchid otter]

But still everyone doing.

[winter pasture]

Yeah, and we know how that goes xD Seize and desist was served to the top music bots late last year if I remember correctly

[orchid otter]

Yep, but i don't think so that yt Spotify and SoundCloud aren't allowed. I have seen many music bots with yt support and actually discord not matters about what sources we are using.

Discord just don't verify music bots because of intents. Many bots are using message content intent without any reason that's why. Slash Commands is a better option.

[earnest phoenix]

The intents have no play in this, Discord doesn't go out of their way to decline bot verification forms just for intents, Discord has started unverifying a few of the popular music bots and might continue doing it

[orchid otter]

Nope. Some popular bots are stopped like rythm & groovy because they don't wanna use any other sources except yt. But hydra is still available.

[earnest phoenix]

Playing music directly from YouTube is against YouTube's ToS, although not against Spotify and SoundCloud's ToSs, as Spotify doesn't provide an endpoint or a way to directly retrieve streams of their songs and play it, SoundCloud probably does although not against their ToS

[orchid otter]

Then still hydra is playing with Spotify SoundCloud and Deezer.

[pale vessel]

rythm will be back

[orchid otter]

Yup!!

[pale vessel]

but probably unlike the old one

[orchid otter]

Lmao

[earnest phoenix]

Popular music bots are still available and verified, although some of them are unverified due to the YouTube takedown incident to avoid problems from their side, Hydra is up and running because it uses sources that aren't against the target platform's ToS

But Discord now seems to be verifying music bots again, but they might take a U turn again

[orchid otter]

Bruh i am owner of my music bot with yt support and its verified so? Lmfao

[earnest phoenix]

You may read the first part again, Discord doesn't really look at what sources your bot uses now; but be careful as YouTube might notice (ever in a lifetime probably)

[orchid otter]

Hmmm

But my bot is small so no worries

[earnest phoenix]

[fathom sonnet]

guys, so i was making a welcome system with mongoDB, and i set everything correctly since my bot create DB when I launch it. But, problem is: when i "trigger" function, it only say that Aplication Did not Respond no errors in console, nothing. Here is code for setChannel file: ```js
const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('@discordjs/builders')
const {Permissions, MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js')
const { Schema } = require('../database-schema/welcome_msg.js')

module.exports = {

/**
 *  @param {Client} client 
 *  @param {Message} client
 * 
 */

data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
    .setName('setwelcome')
    .setDescription('set channels for welcome messages')
    .addChannelOption(option =>
            option 
                .setName('channel')
                .setDescription('Set the channel where you want bot to send welcome messages')
                .setRequired(true)
        ),

async execute(interaction, client, message) {
    try {
        if(interaction.member.permissions.has('ADMINISTARTOR')) return 

        const channel = interaction.options.getChannel('channel')

        Schema.findOne({Guild: interaction.guild.id}, async(err, data) => {
            if(data) {
                data.Channel = channel.id
                data.save()
            } else {
                new  Schema({
                    Guild: interaction.guild.id,
                    Channel: interaction.channel.id
                }).save()
            }
            interaction.reply(`${channel} has been sent as the welcome channel!`)
        })
    }
    catch(err) {
        console.log(err)
    }
}

}

and here is code for schema ```js
const mongoose = require('mongoose')

const Schema = new mongoose.Schema({
Guild: String,
Channel: String,
})

module.exports = mongoose.model('welcome-channel', Schema)

The error is self-explanatory, the IDs provided are invalid emojis

[celest gate]

ohk

[fathom sonnet]

yea, still same, aplication dod not respon & no errors in console & bot remains online

[earnest phoenix]

You're only responding to the interaction if the member has a specific permission, and it's supposed to be ADMINISTRATOR not ADMINISTARTOR

You've got a typo

[wheat mesa]

Also, this works on djs. Deferring the interaction gives you up to 15 minutes to respond to it instead of the normal 3 seconds.

I'm using PDFKit to create a PDF with a bunch of images in a folder (see image). However, when looping through the directory, the script loops out of order. For example:

Adding for 0.png
Adding for 1.png
Adding for 10.png
Adding for 11.png
Adding for 12.png
Adding for 13.png
Adding for 14.png
Adding for 3.png
Adding for 4.png
Adding for 5.png
Adding for 6.png
Adding for 7.png
Adding for 8.png
Adding for 9.png

Is there a way to fix this?
Code: https://sourceb.in/1xFiRvv2o3

[quartz kindle]

its looping in order

[orchid otter]

Which lang? 👀

[quartz kindle]

but alphabetical, not numeric

if you want numeric, you need to extract the numbers from the file name and re-sort them

[simple stump]

JavaScript

[simple stump]

ohhhh i see.

[simple stump]

so smth like:

let files = [];
for (let i = 0; i < images.length; i++) {
  let file = images[i];
  let a = file.split(".")[0];
  files.push([file, parseInt(a ? a : NaN)]);
}
console.log(files);
files.sort((a, b) => a[1] - b[1]);

for (let i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
  // do smth
}

[sharp verge]

Hi, so im trying to setup a webwook when voting for the bot and would like to continue with voting rewards. I used this code from the topgg documentation but am unsure what to replace the content with in the last line (the "dblwebook" and "password")

import topgg

# This example uses topggpy's webhook system.
bot.topgg_webhook = topgg.WebhookManager(bot).dbl_webhook("/dblwebhook", "password")

[quartz kindle]

yes, or just ```js
images.sort((a,b) => Number(a.split(".")[0]) - Number(b.split(".")[0]));
for(...)

[lyric mountain]

dblwebhook would be your endpoint, password would be whatever u set in bot edit page

Weird question. I'm sending requests to a website. I'm just curious whether this bit of code would get me IP banned or not.

for (let i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
  let link = links[i];
  let request = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    this.wait(this.throttle ? this.throttle : 50).then(() => {
      this.downloadFile(link, join(__dirname, "./" + title + "/" + chapter + "/" + page + ".png")).then(() => {
        resolve();
      });
    });
  });
  promises.push(request);
}
await Promise.all(promises);

This this.wait is pretty useless, but I'm just wondering if there's a way to not get blocked if I were to send requests this way.

[lyric mountain]

something.value
/\ this is null

[quartz kindle]

yes, all requests are being executed at the same time, so its possible you'll be limited

[simple stump]

hm interesting. is there a better way to go abt this without having to wait an extremely long time for js to download images?

[quartz kindle]

execute them sequentially

one at a time

if that takes too long, you can try executing a few at a time

with formdata

const fd = new FormData();
fd.append("file", file);
$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "upload.php",
  data: fd,
  success: success
});

[upper current]

the only thing i see here is you have let filetype = file.type, but file isn't defined anywhere. (not in that snipet anyway)

when you use showFile() are you passing anything through?

showFile(file) maybe?

[lyric mountain]

hey @quartz kindle are u a cpp guy?

[quartz kindle]

not really, just enough to make a cpp addon for node

[lyric mountain]

nhe

[boreal iron]

Isn’t cry speaking cpp?

Or c#

I don’t remember anymore

I’m old

That’s sad

[quartz kindle]

do you need help with cpp? or with ccp?

[lyric mountain]

just trying to disable alt key (but not alt combos)

[boreal iron]

ccp?

[quartz kindle]

🇨🇳

[simple stump]

Okay. Thanks 👍

[lyric mountain]

like, the company I work to uses alt as the "Function" key, and we're rewriting one of the programs in flutter

but windows is stupid and doesn't let me press alt without focusing the titlebar menu

[boreal iron]

[lyric mountain]

I managed to remap alt to ctrl, but I also need to allow alt combos

idk how to detect if multiple keys are pressed in cpp

tbh I'd not even be touching cpp if fckin dart had a way to disable keyboard keys

[quartz kindle]

thats not even a cpp issue, is more like a windows api hell issue

[split hazel]

c++? why would you touch that garbage unsafe crippled mess of a language

become a rustacean today

[lyric mountain]

flutter uses cpp for windows platform

like, I don't need to touch the cpp files, but I must

fuck it, I'll use a boolean switch

...except I cant cuz alt is pressed first

[split hazel]

🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮

we dont speak about that dead language

[boreal iron]

You’re smoking too much Sir

[split hazel]

yeah:(

shouldve written my database in rust

but then i dont think my schools exam board project allowed languages allows rust

too new of a language

[lyric mountain]

speedy's worst enemy

[split hazel]

can you explain the joke

[lyric mountain]

because it removes rust

[split hazel]

ah

ive only coded in rust for 1 hour in total so far tho

[boreal iron]

It doesn’t really remove rust but who cares

[quartz kindle]

that link doesnt work

[fathom sonnet]

ok guys, so about my problem with welcome message from today, it was because i missed (!) in permissions so thats why bot didnt answer, but now, when i call interaction, i got error: findOne() is not defined:

[simple stump]

Using ElectronJS, how can I create an “overlay” in a sense? Ex. A window that is semi-transparent that doesnt go away if you are in full screen. One example includes Discord’s overlay that you can enable in settings.

[wheat mesa]

Show setChannel.js

[manic basin]

U first want to pick the programming language that ur bot is going to be written in. It could be any, from C++ to JS to Python. Make sure that u are comfortable with the programming u want to program in. Then find a lib to use. U could use this site (https://libs.advaith.io/) to see which one works out for u. once u have chosen, go ahead and read the docs and guides

[dry imp]

you probably wanna code them in julia

[vivid fulcrum]

unfortunately people like that aren't willing to and will never learn

[manic basin]

The programming language doesn't really matter. Plus Julia's discord lib is on API v6, which has been deprecated for a long time now

[vivid fulcrum]

most of the time they resort to copypasting from youtube

[dry imp]

i mean thats the joke

use python for everything

[lyric mountain]

look for properties akin to setAlwaysOnTop and setOpacity, if there's any it'll be in window manager

also u need to make it ignore pointer events

[radiant kraken]

agreed but not really everything

[dry imp]

i use it for everything

[radiant kraken]

it depends on what field of programming you're interested on

[dry imp]

use python when you can, use other lang when you must

[radiant kraken]

tbh just use whatever the fuck you want

[dry imp]

yes but you probably want python

[radiant kraken]

i used to be a python dev 2 years ago so i can't disagree with that

[dry imp]

should've been for your whole life, im disappointed in you null

[radiant kraken]

sticking to one language for your whole life can be boring

[pallid phoenix]

ty

[manic basin]

np

[pallid phoenix]

xd

k

[vivid fulcrum]

worthy to note that discords overlay is not electron

it's cpp

[sharp geyser]

Interesting to know cry

I didn't know that

[lyric mountain]

cry do u know if it's possible to disable alt key default function?

like, the one that focuses the titlebar's menu

[vivid fulcrum]

to have a true overlay you need to have a directx/opengl hook that intercepts the game rendering pipeline, wait for the game frame to render, hook into the render, flush your buffer into it and then send it to the gpu/cpu to render

[vivid fulcrum]

no idea i disable the titlebar

my electron apps are frameless

then in the frontend i create a custom frame

[lyric mountain]

sadly it doesnt work for flutter

pressing alt still send focus to titlebar

[vivid fulcrum]

oh flutter

i have absolutely 0 experience with it

sorry

been wanting to try it out though

im currently expanding my stack by using all kinds of UI app frameworks

[lyric mountain]

I can write in the cpp files used for windows

that's why I asked since ur a cpp shaman

[pale vessel]

isn't he a c# shaman

[fathom sonnet]

here it is: ```js
const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('@discordjs/builders')
const {Permissions, MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js')
const { Schema } = require('../database-schema/welcome_msg.js')

module.exports = {

                .setName('channel')
                .setDescription('Set the channel where you want bot to send welcome messages')
                .setRequired(true)
        ),

async execute(interaction, client, message) {
    try {

        const channel = interaction.options.getChannel('channel')

        Schema.findOne({Guild: interaction.guild.id}, async(err, data) => {
            if(data) {
                data.Channel = channel.id
                data.save()
            } else {

        interaction.deferReply({ ephemeral: true })
        interaction.reply(`${channel} has been set as welcome channel`)

    }
    catch(err) {
        console.log(err)
    }
}

}

const { Schema } = require('../database-schema/welcome_msg.js') is just schema

[pine nova]

thats a mongoose/mongo schema right?

why are u importing it like that

just do

const WelcomeSchema = require('../database-schema/welcome_msg.js')
WelcomeSchema.findOne({}).then().catch()

if its a mongoose schema 💀

[copper cradle]

well that does look like a mongoose schema

[pine nova]

then yea

[fathom sonnet]

Yep

[pine nova]

yea u are importing it wrong ig

[split hazel]

garbage database

use speedb instead

no memory leaks whatsoever

not even one byte

never heard of it fr

ah

its mongodb but better

its very fast too

dem gonna try it then

Hello there

I need some help :)

I have an array of different events and when these events take place. I want to find the next event, but not the closest event. I've searched for a long time, but didn't find anything helpful. Are any of you able to help? Thanks :)

[quartz kindle]

please elaborate

[civic scroll]

apparently, this code executes, but the value of isPortrait is not updated after call

[solid tide]

Were do you change is portrait

[civic scroll]

you said you knew react

[winter pasture]

Is the code in a useEffect? Then remove the eventListener on useEffect cleanup

[civic scroll]

i did

but the thhing is

the call to setIsPortrait didn't update the value of isPortrait at all

here is the variable defs

[winter pasture]

And the console.log in there did fire?

[civic scroll]

yeah

[winter pasture]

Wth

[civic scroll]

enourmous amount of times

but value didn't change

if you look at the code prior to this

[vivid fulcrum]

what does your entire useEffect look like

[civic scroll]

it's irrelevant

all you need to know is that

[vivid fulcrum]

it's relevant

[civic scroll]

i did define that

the useEffect has 0 deps

and did return a cleanup func

[winter pasture]

It should have the setIsPortrait func as a dep I think

At least our linting rules force us to do that at work

In case the function is redefined

[civic scroll]

i don't want the whole thing to rerender

[vivid fulcrum]

it will because of the state change

[civic scroll]

it's only defined once since the component won't rerender no matter what state changes

[vivid fulcrum]

also

[civic scroll]

it won't

[vivid fulcrum]

the resize event fires a bunch of times, you might consider adding a debounce

150ms or so should work fine

[civic scroll]

bruh

it only fires when the viewport changes from landscape to portrait

but that's not the stuff i need

the problem is the dispatch call didn't update the state for some reasons

and idk what's preventing it

the func call did hit

[vivid fulcrum]

i am not talking about the effect firing

[civic scroll]

not the effect

the update function

[vivid fulcrum]

i just noted that the resize event will fire a bunch of times during resizing, log it in the console and see for yourself

adding a debounce will improve performance significantly

[civic scroll]

i returned immediately

so what's the point of debounce

and you are deviating away from the main problem

[vivid fulcrum]

oh good point, i thought you were doing something else in the event as well

have you tried running in strictmode?

[civic scroll]

it's strictmode by default wym

💀

[vivid fulcrum]

im just asking, strictmode is used for useful debugging info

stop being passive aggressive lol

[civic scroll]

i'm frustrated because you are providing me unrelated trivial stuffs

all i ask is what might have prevented the value from updating

[earnest phoenix]

According to the React documentation, the setState() method (setIsPortrait() in your case) is not guaranteed to change the state immediately, with the existing value staying until some of the checks behind the scenes are done, it also states that the state won't be changed if something is blocking it, such as a bottleneck

[vivid fulcrum]

because you're giving us way less information than you know on your code, you cannot get mad at people for trying to pinpoint a problem with little information

[civic scroll]

i provided just enough information on my code:

• how those state vars are defined
• how and where it's called
• useEffect returns and dependencies

there's nothing else touching those state vars i mentioned

and therefore they are deemed to be reduntdant

get to the point already

[solid tide]

Console log after set is portrait?

[vivid fulcrum]

something also just popped into my mind, you're going to benefit from denouncing regardless

your user can keep resizing even after the landscape check passed

[vivid fulcrum]

effectively circling to this issue

[civic scroll]

in 1 second, resizing within the bound of portrait

[civic scroll]

the shit thing is i can't defer or know when a state is marked for update

since window api is outside of react

[vivid fulcrum]

oh

i think i figured it out

[civic scroll]

[raw nest]

Is there a way to somehow write a function to count all lines of code in a repo/organization? The api doesn't give you this data

[civic scroll]

download the repo, scan every source file, done

[tribal crow]

Ok, so i have an array of all the Formula 1 races this year, containing their date and place. I want to sort them and return the next race, so that when a user uses a command, it replies with all the info about it.

[solid tide]

Become a chad web scraperr

[vivid fulcrum]

the value possibly lags back in setting the state, instead pass it an arrow function, the argument of the arrow func is granted to have the current value of the state, just invert it since it's a bool

[raw nest]

hmm 😅 still the same lmao how does that work? xD

[civic scroll]

so you mean

define an arrow function instead of using the state variable directly in cb

[vivid fulcrum]

yes, sec ill try to find a doc for it

[solid tide]

Its not a good way kek

[civic scroll]

document.addEventListener ?

[solid tide]

I was joking

[civic scroll]

perhaps you can sort them by unix timestamps

get current date as unix and use binary search to find the nearest one

assuming the data is a tuple

[quartz kindle]

so just sort them based on date: array.sort((a,b) => a.date - b.date) then look up the next date from the current date array.find(x => x.date > Date.now())

(assuming js)

[civic scroll]

looks like

[vivid fulcrum]

https://beta.reactjs.org/apis/usestate#updating-state-based-on-the-previous-state
you can also avoid that issue by, again, debouncing, because instead of firing setting the state 300 times in a second and everything lagging behind, you'll fire it once

[civic scroll]

the thing is

wait lemme read stack overflow

also

debouncing won't help

[vivid fulcrum]

yes it will

you're overloading react by updating the state so many times

not even useTransition would help

[vivid fulcrum]

319 state changes a second meaning 319 re-renders a second

do you really think this is not an issue

[civic scroll]

didn't i mention it wouldn't rerender no matter what

the useEffect has explicitly 0 dependency

[vivid fulcrum]

a component re-renders when its state changes

[civic scroll]

no

that's if you call useEffect and omit the 2nd parameter

[vivid fulcrum]

you have some serious misconceptions

effects are functions that run whenever a change is challenged in the component ergo effects

your component will re-render but the hook won't re-run

[civic scroll]

but the thing is

that state value doesn't change the component's output html

so on change it shouldn't rerender

[vivid fulcrum]

doesn't matter

[civic scroll]

2nd argument is, didn't you already see the condition to trigger a state change and a possibly a rerender like you said?

[vivid fulcrum]

react defaults to re-rendering behaviour when a components state is changed

[civic scroll]

how can someone resize between landscape and portrait 300+ times a second

[solid tide]

Mate do a console log after setIsPotrait , so it were th prob is

[vivid fulcrum]

oh my

god

[civic scroll]

💀 go away

you didn't get the problem

[solid tide]

S-s-sorry

[wheat mesa]

💀

[civic scroll]

btw @vivid fulcrum

callback didn't solve the issue

[vivid fulcrum]

your state change will run anytime the portrait check passes, although react won't re-render if the current state value is equal to the value of the argument, you're still calling the setstate and putting pressure on react

im out of ideas right now, just try debouncing as a last resort

if that doesn't work, no idea

[solid tide]

React 🥶

The val does change

[civic scroll]

still a false against true value

[iron gale]

Why you are not waiting for resize end? You can do it by setTimeout and clearTimeout but im not too sure about performance

[vivid fulcrum]

i would approach this by debouncing the resize event listener and putting isPortrait as an effect dependency

[civic scroll]

perhaps i can try adding the portrait as a dep

[vivid fulcrum]

isPortrait? worth a shot

[civic scroll]

not a concern since similar values are returned immediately

[vivid fulcrum]

it's most definitely a performance concern but alright

whatever floats your boat

[civic scroll]

bruh

[quartz kindle]

i dont know react, but i found this in SO, idk if its of any use, if not just ignore

[civic scroll]

there's no one that can be bored to even

resize the page

[vivid fulcrum]

https://bencentra.com/code/2015/02/27/optimizing-window-resize.html

[solid tide]

Does the same shit work in the same scope?

Ie after changing state

[civic scroll]

no

good news: dependency worked

bad news: refactor

[vivid fulcrum]

now debounce it!!!!!!!!! :(

[civic scroll]

since the component is entire page

now the intro sequence plays again

[solid tide]

Maybe use affect ?

[civic scroll]

💀 ]\

i will just suffer in vc

thanks and sorry for the troubles

[solid tide]

Brah there's a useeffect

[civic scroll]

you still didn't get the problem

[solid tide]

What is your problem mate

[vivid fulcrum]

it's a bit rude but i get where they're coming from, you're trying to help someone whose skill level is above yours

[solid tide]

Yea, ive only used react for like a week

Js for a month

[wheat mesa]

Definitely not your area of expertise then for that :p

[earnest phoenix]

if(!msg.author.roles.has('979751338831396884'))return;```

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'has')

what is the problem ?

[wheat mesa]

author is a User object, which does not have roles associated with it. Use msg.member instead

[earnest phoenix]

oh ok let me try

[earnest phoenix]

msg.member.roles.have is not a function

i use discord.js v12

[wheat mesa]

1. Update to v13
2. Read the docs for member objects, I’ll send it here

[earnest phoenix]

i don't need v13 now

[wheat mesa]

Yes, you do

Staying on v12 will give you a massive headache later

[earnest phoenix]

ik

[wheat mesa]

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

msg.member.roles.cache.has()

[earnest phoenix]

oh ok

[wheat mesa]

I personally love discord.js’s documentation, make sure to reference that whenever you’re having issues with it

[lament rock]

Discord.js documentation and pretty much every other doc page assumes you understand data types and have an editor that supports it

[wheat mesa]

If you don’t already know about data types then that is definitely something you need to know about

[lament rock]

I mean. It's stupid to not have an editor that has intellisense

[wheat mesa]

Well, a lot of people use replit that “has” intellisense, but it’s so slow that it doesn’t show up 90% of the time

So I understand why it can be difficult sometimes

[earnest phoenix]

i use replit not for my bot

a shop server bot .-.

[wheat mesa]

Regardless of what you use though, knowing how to navigate and use the documentation is a very essential and useful tool to developing a discord bot

[earnest phoenix]

alright ty

[wheat mesa]

Gl!

[civic scroll]

additional help needed

this involves framer-motion library for react

[solid tide]

Ok bye

[boreal iron]

Hey hey! Don’t call my notepad stupid

[floral zephyr]

Selamunaleyküm

[boreal iron]

It’s some pure hardcore experience

[dull dragon]

How do i see which servers added my bot?

[simple stump]

Using ElectronJS, how can I create an overlay similar to this? The overlay is able to stay on top even when an application is in full-screen, yet when I'm playing a videogame, win.setAlwaysOnTop doesn't always work (the window doesn't appear). Is there a way to achieve this?

[winter pasture]

What framework are you using?

[lyric mountain]

<client>.guilds.cache

[dull dragon]

discord.js

[dull dragon]

this gives?

[winter pasture]

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

[fathom sonnet]

I got an queatuon, maybe it is Stupid but hey...

So i got and idea on to make d.js bot which will use image detection to detect specific objects on the image. So i just Wonder if that is posible

[winter pasture]

Ah, yeah. What @lyric mountain said too. The link I sent just emits an event when it joins a guild, his way lists out all the guilds that is in the cache

[fathom sonnet]

I would use it to "protect" Server from NSFW content...

[proven lantern]

checkout tensorflow. you can host models on aws

[fathom sonnet]

One way is to set a databse and collect guild ID (server ID) when bot is added to server

[fathom sonnet]

Okay man, thank you :)

[quartz kindle]

most overlay systems dont work in fullscreen, only with borderless mode

this is true for most games as well

the only way for an overlay to work in true fullscreen is if that overlay injects itself into directX/openGL or whatever graphics engine the game uses

[simple stump]

Ah I see. I'm playing MC in borderless though, but the Electron window can't display itself. As for injecting, how would I go about doing that? Is it possible?

[quartz kindle]

if it works with any other window, then it should work on mc too, it basically always brings the window to the front of other windows

fullscreen doesnt use windows at all, the game takes full control over the screen and the desktop ceases to exist while the game is running

as for how to do that, i dont know either

[delicate zephyr]

only reason nvidia does is because it injects itself into the games display mode

[delicate zephyr]

nvm I just saw this

[upper current]

random question: a friend wants to put gifs (from Tenor) in his embeds. Discord parses those gifs and displays them fine in text, but when embedding them, the embeds don't like it without the .gif and just simply adding that to the end of the links breaks them. Any idears on what we could try to just to play around with it?

[quartz kindle]

because tenor links are not direct links

[upper current]

typical

[quartz kindle]

when pasting them as a website, discord looks up the website's opengraph tags to decide what to display

for example

these are the links discord actually displays

[upper current]

so it would be better to just access the Tenor API and pull from there rather than trying to parse it out on his own?

[quartz kindle]

so you have to do the same, fetch the tenor link and look for the direct link in the opengraph tags

[quartz kindle]

if they have an api, yes

[upper current]

they do, just not one i've ever done anything with.

used one, used 'em all, rite?

||jk, biggest lie i've said all year||

ty tho

[quartz kindle]

try it

[boreal iron]

anybody else having trouble with the v10 gateway and the client presence?

discord somehow doesn't show the client's presence for some reason

it has been set correctly and the client has the right presence

[upper current]

we got this https://tenor.com/76i3.gif, which is perfect. It's the url we needed, or so i thought? (it's randomized, but whatever) but discord still doesn't show it in the embed. just a blank image again

[tacit citrus]

is it possible to fetch User from messageDelete event. (deletedMessage.author.id)

[upper current]

it's possible to catch who's message was deleted, but without accessing the audit logs, you can't tell who deleted it.

[tacit citrus]

my bot has acces to audit logs but i should fetch it from audit logs?

[slender thistle]

https://c.tenor.com/rDA1dMjwjNMAAAAd/headbutt-hey.gif

[quartz kindle]

because thats still not a direct link

[upper current]

in my opinion, yes? you can get more accurate information on:

the message from X.user was deleted by X.user: message = message```
