[ancient nova]

do you know how to embed images into the long description?

[lyric mountain]

for example, u mention this but gives no examples

[digital swan]

nah just saying thats probably why it doesnt get many invites

people click and get blinded

[lyric mountain]

anyone could say "never seen commands" but what commands?

[gilded plank]

@ancient nova

You can achieve this using Markdown or HTML in your bot's description. You can ask in #development for help or use this HTML and Markdown cheatsheet for more resources.

[winter pasture]

For markdown

<img> tag for HTML

[lyric mountain]

oh and remember the first rule of advertising: the first 20 words are the ones that'll define whether you'll grab the viewer's attention or not

[winter pasture]

Also not going to hate on the name, but "Anonymous Hater" gives off a weird vibe imo

Doesn't look like i meet the limit right?

[ancient nova]

I couldn't decide on a better name

[boreal iron]

MAX 5 components per ROW

[eternal osprey]

oowh bruhf

[boreal iron]

max 5 action rows

[ancient nova]

if I'm gonna change I need to do it right now cause my bot is a couple servers away from verification

[winter pasture]

Finding a name is hard. You could go for a name that matches a theme.
Like Mimu goes for a "cute" theme

[boreal iron]

i didn't make the rules lol

[ancient nova]

I know this may sound stupid but could anyone grab the screenshots for me?

I have a CSS script extension and it will look quite sketchy

[eternal osprey]

Can't i create 2 rows then and add them to the embed?

i guess not right

[boreal iron]

yeah 2 actions with a total of 5 per row

max 5 rows = 25 total

[eternal osprey]

how would i add mutliple rows? i suppose it needs to be on a different embed each time right

[boreal iron]

those are components

not embeds

[winter pasture]

Would't a select make more sense when it comes to selecting days?

[eternal osprey]

this is what i've done

[winter pasture]

In web dev you always say if there is more than 3 buttons, use a select

[boreal iron]

you simply add another row to the component

[eternal osprey]

const row1 = new MessageActionRow()
            .addComponents(
                new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('0week')
                    .setLabel('verwarnung')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('1day')
                    .setLabel('1 Tag')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('2day')
                    .setLabel('2 Tage')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('3day')
                    .setLabel('3 Tage')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('4day')
                    .setLabel('4 Tage')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('5day')
                    .setLabel('5 Tage')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    
            );
            const row2 = new MessageActionRow()
            .addComponents(
                new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('6day')
                    .setLabel('6 Tage')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'),
                    new MessageButton()
                    .setCustomId('1week')
                    .setLabel('1 Woche')
                    .setStyle('PRIMARY'))
                
            const embed1 = new MessageEmbed()
                .setColor('GREEN')
                .setTitle('Verwarnung- 1 woche options')
                .setDescription(`Wähle mit wievielen Wochen der User bestraft werden soll!`)
                .setTimestamp()
                .setFooter({ text: 'Arcadia Henker | Strike'});
              interaction.reply({ embeds: [embed1], components: [row1, row2] })```Like this lmao?

srry for the code bomb lol

[boreal iron]

dude for real

[eternal osprey]

yeah?\

[boreal iron]

the first row has 6 buttons

[eternal osprey]

oowh lmao

[boreal iron]

But yes it works like this

[fathom sonnet]

yes

[boreal iron]

You simply add those rows to the array of your components

But with the correct amount of buttons per row

[ancient nova]

I've updated, does it look better now?

[sharp saddle]

Does anyone have an opinion on what I did?

[boreal iron]

Makes sense to make multiple rows like:

1d, 2d, 3d, 4d, 5
1w, 2w, 3w, 4w

And maybe a first row with common timeouts

5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 12h

[lyric mountain]

also 6h

[boreal iron]

eyes rolling

[quartz kindle]

eyebrows waving

[boreal iron]

[ancient nova]

is that better then?

[vivid fulcrum]

maybe ditch the scroll reveal effect

and have the effect appear on the page load

[sharp saddle]

ok

[vivid fulcrum]

the UI is clean though

loving the color palette

[sharp saddle]

that is the goal

really don't know what to add more

I'm totally out of ideas

[vivid fulcrum]

another thing id suggest is when entering the URL to play the music, maybe give the use feedback that it's loading in, i.e. disabling the input and adding a loading indicator like a spinner

[sharp saddle]

the spinner has for PC version

[vivid fulcrum]

ah

[sharp saddle]

I just put the URL because I was not able to put the name

the bot probably didn't find the song or something

I just made a change you asked for:
https://github.com/OnBeat-Project/OnBeat-Bot/commit/4e15781e58513446c5561a6701c958f6440dfdc1

[vivid fulcrum]

much better UX

also loving the backdrop-filter touch on the navbar

[sharp saddle]

[mint rock]

hi, why is this happening? it worked just fine and now it throws this error

[sharp saddle]

are you using v14?

[mint rock]

i guess it installed the latest

its v13 code

[sharp saddle]

yea, you installed v14

try using npm i discord.js@13

[mint rock]

nah, time to browse new documentation

thanks tho! didnt know its out

[sharp saddle]

lmao

you can know in official djs server

https://discord.gg/djs

[sharp saddle]

[sharp saddle]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/main/general/welcome v14 doc @mint rock

[mint rock]

aaa is it worth switching to v14?

[boreal iron]

That’s up to you

[sharp saddle]

yea

is the most recommended, as it is more stable

[boreal iron]

Not much of a difference between 13.9 and 14.0 now

I’m terms of features and api support

[sharp saddle]

even though they were both released on the same day

[boreal iron]

Once you don’t plan to rewrite your entire code and put a lot of time into it anyways it’s not really worth atm

[sharp saddle]

lmao

I'm too lazy to change to v14, there are many things

[boreal iron]

But expanding the code just to edit way more code later if you update it might also not be considered great

[mint rock]

i sent message to djs server by accident and now they are crying

[boreal iron]

It actually up to you how

And how familiar youre already with djs, it’s syntax and changes

[sharp saddle]

[mint rock]

read up

[lyric mountain]

I mean, the earliest, the better

you'll eventually have to, better do it so you don't need to rush later on

[earnest phoenix]

Hi guys, there is a way to make the bot to send a message when someone votes on top.gg? without webhook

[lyric mountain]

no

[boreal iron]

Yes

[earnest phoenix]

i saw there it is

[boreal iron]

But not just in time

[earnest phoenix]

doesn t matter

[boreal iron]

Only then when you send a request to the API

[lyric mountain]

I mean, if ur ok with having a considerably huge delay between voting and notifying...

ur users wont be happy probably

[boreal iron]

I won’t be happy to get random messages anyways

[earnest phoenix]

xD

[mint rock]

give them 50 virtual bucks for voting 😎

[lyric mountain]

user votes

1 hour later

"thanks for voting"

user: "Wtf?"

[vivid fulcrum]

either do what kuuhaku suggested, querying the API periodically or have the user execute a command to confirm their vote

[vivid fulcrum]

other than that, there's nothing else but using webhooks

[earnest phoenix]

love it

[boreal iron]

At least to for example redeem some cookie or other benefit

[earnest phoenix]

works fine with webhook

ngl

[boreal iron]

But that’s still not really comfortable

[earnest phoenix]

it didn t fking work

[boreal iron]

What’s the issue then?

[earnest phoenix]

const express = require('express')
const app = express();
app.get('/', (req, res) => res.send('E on'));
const port = 65476
app.listen(port, () =>
console.log(`it s on`));
app.get("/bot-data", async function (req, res) {
    res.send({users: client.guilds.cache.reduce((a, b) => a + b.memberCount, 0), servers: client.guilds.cache.size})
})
const Topgg = require('@top-gg/sdk')
const fetch = require('node-fetch')
const webhook = new Topgg.Webhook("maybe no?")
app.post("/dblwebhook", webhook.listener(vote => {
    console.log("User with id - " + vote.user + " Voted!")
    let value = JSON.stringify({
        embeds: [
            {
                description: `<@${vote.user}> (${vote.user}) [voted](https://top.gg/bot/993041677243654144/vote) for **shard**`,
                color: "#000dff"
            }
        ]
    })
    fetch("https://discord.com/api/webhooks/some-id-lol/hehe", { 
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
            'Content-type': 'application/json',
        },
        body: value
    }).catch(e => console.log('Error occured while posting webhook : ' + e))
}))

that s my express

where s the issue?

if you're wondering about if i'm that dumb and forgot to set in top.gg

let me show

[boreal iron]

Where’s is that code running? At home or on a server?

[earnest phoenix]

server

http://inf01-ams.scyte.ro:65476/dblwebhook

try acces it

it s on

[boreal iron]

I’m on mobile

[earnest phoenix]

you can enter it

[boreal iron]

How tf would I manage to send a post request lol

[earnest phoenix]

or let me ss it

[boreal iron]

The code will react on post requests

[boreal iron]

Aka webhooks

[earnest phoenix]

it s working only first part

that with servers

[earnest phoenix]

for site

[wheat mesa]

your vps is probably blocking it

[earnest phoenix]

but for website works

[boreal iron]

He has a password

Requiring an authorization

[wheat mesa]

fair

[earnest phoenix]

damn

my brain is dead

[boreal iron]

Can you actually receive and log a vote?

[earnest phoenix]

yeah

only log

but in channel via webhook

i recive only hope 🙂

[boreal iron]

Well is see your initiated client var in the code above

Just fetch the server and channel and send the message

Using the log data, we probably just the user Id

[earnest phoenix]

fetch it

but how

like

it would'nt be

reconized

[boreal iron]

Fetching what?

[earnest phoenix]

server and channel and send the message

[boreal iron]

client.guilds~~.cache~~.fetch(…)

then <guild>.channels.fetch(…)

OR get() as both are cached by default

In order to not let @earnest phoenix cry about it again

BUT since I don’t know about the caching behavior of the guy I’m helping I always take the safe way aka fetch Mr. Voltrex

Is the webserver part of your bot code?

I can’t see shit on mobile

[quartz kindle]

log the fetch response body

[boreal iron]

Oh I see

That’s what he means

[wheat mesa]

(not real)

[boreal iron]

Using the rest api to send a webhook

Damn

Code blocks suck hard on mobile

Not my fault

[earnest phoenix]

bruh

[wheat mesa]

client.guilds.cache.fetch is about as real as ohio

doesn't exist

[earnest phoenix]

:))

[boreal iron]

It does dingus

[wheat mesa]

it doesn't dingus

cache is a collection in almost all occurrences of the word in djs

[boreal iron]

Oh lol

[wheat mesa]

which is just a fancier map

[boreal iron]

I added cache property accidentally

Damn I’m a dingus

[wheat mesa]

😉 dingus

[lyric mountain]

bingus dingus

[boreal iron]

Dingus

Fuck that proves that drinking writing and driving ain’t a good idea

[wheat mesa]

lol

[boreal iron]

I just tested you folks of course

Mission passed

[wheat mesa]

can we just appreciate rust for one moment ```rs
fn find_number(&self, num: f64) -> Option<usize> {
self.constants.iter().position(|c| {
if let Constant::Number(num2) = c {
(num - num2).abs() < f64::EPSILON
} else {
false
}
})
}

god it's amazing

[boreal iron]

No!

Move on with its ugly syntax ffs

My eyes

[wheat mesa]

not ugly syntax!

what about it is ugly!

I don't like the lack of parenthesis that much but I can deal with it for the benefits of the language

[lyric mountain]

} else {
  false
}

EXCUSE ME?

[wheat mesa]

implicit returns

position is a function that takes a lambda essentially

[boreal iron]

Looking for tree to end this mess, don’t wanna watch rust code

[lyric mountain]

what abt if let?

[wheat mesa]

Searches for an element in an iterator, returning its index.

position() takes a closure that returns true or false. It applies this closure to each element of the iterator, and if one of them returns true, then position() returns [Some(index)]. If all of them return false, it returns None.

position() is short-circuiting; in other words, it will stop processing as soon as it finds a true.

[wheat mesa]

In this case if c is an instance of Constant::Number, it will pass the if statement, else it will go to the else block

more beautiful rust ```rs
pub fn write_constant_string(&mut self, string: String) -> usize {
if let Some(id) = self.find_string(&string) {
id
} else {
self.write_constant(Constant::String(string))
}
}

thats better

[ancient nova]

oh my jesus christ that just made me feel worse

[boreal iron]

Represents how i see rust

[quartz kindle]

the shit i do just to avoid having to use ts

[wheat mesa]

my god

[winter tapir]

let lock = false;

app.post(
  '/dblwebhook',
  webhook.listener((vote) => {
    if (!lock) {
      lock = true;

      console.log(vote.user);

      bot.emit('vote', vote, bot, app);

      lock = false;
    }
  })
);

Is this how you properly create a mutex? For some reason I tried to attempt making one and this piece of code sometimes execute twice. Sometimes it will run fine and execute once, then some other times it will run twice, however it doesn't execute three times. Any help will be appreciated!

[wheat mesa]

spamming your question every 5 minutes isn't going to get you an answer :p

I think your underlying problem isn't about mutexes, you need to figure out why you're getting two webhook events

[ancient nova]

wait hold on you can do a command for users to vote for your bot?

[hybrid cargo]

No you cant, however you can listen to events from top.gg api on who voted for your bot

[boreal iron]

Nope

[ancient nova]

why not? you can make it so only the people who are connected to the top.gg auth app can vote

perhaps that would be hard to do?

[hybrid cargo]

That feature is not available as it could be easily abused

[ancient nova]

how for example?

[hybrid cargo]

People using user bots to send vote messages on timed intervals

[ancient nova]

that's what I meant by people who are connected to the top.gg auth app, meaning real people that are registered on the website

not bots

[hybrid cargo]

"user bots"

[quartz kindle]

mutex in js doesnt really exist, its useless to do that

[ancient nova]

even so that's pretty much what you'd do with the normal websites, just harder and more of a pain to do to watch an ad

[quartz kindle]

the only thing in js that is remotely similar is sharedArrayBuffer atomics

[lyric mountain]

It doesn't work on js?

[ancient nova]

meaning people will just not vote unless they have a reason to

[hybrid cargo]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[ancient nova]

:/

[winter tapir]

What solution do you think would work in my case instead of using mutex?

[quartz kindle]

if you are receiving the same event twice, its top.gg's fault, not yours

[winter tapir]

I think a possible reason why my code could be executing twice is because the webhook is retrying itself

[quartz kindle]

unless the top.gg lib is broken somehow

[ancient nova]

I would rather have that for the sake of convinience

[winter tapir]

But I don’t see a reason why a webhook would need to retry itself however as the first one that was sent is successful

[quartz kindle]

not in a sync code

[lyric mountain]

But doesn't it use pseudo threads for events? (aka promises)

[quartz kindle]

nop

[lyric mountain]

Weird

So a faulty event could technically lock the entire process

[winter tapir]

It’s probably Top.gg's fault, but I don’t imagine this is fixable or preventable on my side somehow

[quartz kindle]

its impossible for two events to be executed at the same time

[lyric mountain]

Yes but, if an event gets deadlocked wouldn't it prevent further events from happening?

[ancient nova]

maybe save the previous event data and compare to the new one, if it's identical break the script

[quartz kindle]

however it is possible for a second event to enter execution before the code in the first event finishes, if the code is async, and i mean truly async, it does i/o stuff or uses timers, just slapping the async keyword on it doesnt make it async

[quartz kindle]

if you put a while(true) {} inside the event, yes, a second event will never fire

[lyric mountain]

Damn

[quartz kindle]

or anything else in your entire code

[lyric mountain]

I knew js was mono thread, but I though events were handled like promises

[quartz kindle]

they are just tools that allow you to use async

them by themselves do not make any code async

[winter tapir]

It is possible that since i’m sending embeds to a channel logging votes, I could fetch a total of 4 messages since the embed duplicates seem to be next to each other or after a unique message. I could check if the embeds are duplicates possibly

[quartz kindle]

since a user can only vote once every 12 hours on top.gg you can simply create an object and add the user's id to that object

if it already exists, ignore

then delete the user from the object after 12 hours

[boreal iron]

Is the second event being fired before you can respond to the first one?

I think I’ve seen multiple webhooks being sent, too even after responding as expected

So… most likely an API issue

[lyric mountain]

Ik top.gg retries if u don't return 2xx status in time

[boreal iron]

Yeah

Even then I think I saw multiple requests rarely

[lyric mountain]

I'd say create a promise to handle the processing and return an status asap

[boreal iron]

Maybe their code fails on parsing the response data

Sending the request again

For whatever reason

[lyric mountain]

To debug that I'd bombard the handler with requests to see if something fails

Like, simulate 5 or so votes per second

[boreal iron]

Guess nobody will ever debug the API

[lyric mountain]

Nono, I mean his handler, not topgg api

[boreal iron]

Also doubt anyone actually actively working on an improved version of it

[boreal iron]

Oh yeah of course

But I still assume like it’s an issue on topgg

Since we’ve seen that issue for multiple people

Not all of them are using sdk

Chances are low something goes wrong on the client side on many different environments

But haven’t really tried to debug that at all

Not so important

[ashen orbit]

is there a way to have it so every embed my bot makes is the same

or something

[ancient nova]

so I timed out a person for 30 seconds using member.timeout() and after that passed they dmed me that they we're still muted? I had to manually time them out again for that to be fixed

discord bug?

[quartz kindle]

indeed, and from looking at the top.gg-sdk code, they dont return a response until your callback finishes

which imo is a bad design

[ashen orbit]

RangeError [BitFieldInvalid]: Invalid bitfield flag or number: undefined.

djs 14

[quartz kindle]

so essentially as said above, your vote event function is likely too slow to the point that top.gg is retrying the request

[ashen orbit]

assuming that it's my client

// Variables
const bot = new discord.Client({intents: [discord.GatewayIntentBits.GUILDS, discord.GatewayIntentBits.GUILD_MESSAGES, discord.GatewayIntentBits.GUILD_MEMBERS, discord.GatewayIntentBits.GUILD_MESSAGE_REACTIONS, discord.GatewayIntentBits.GUILD_PRESENCES]})

whats wrong with it

i updated to v14

[winter tapir]

Its pascal case

so Guilds, GuildMessages etc

[ashen orbit]

ohhhh

i didn't realise they werent all uppercase anymore

thanks guys

[winter tapir]

Also if you want the message content in the message object, you should define the MessageContent intent. Just in case you didn't know.

[ashen orbit]

is that new?

[winter tapir]

Well that's what v10 api requires (what v14 uses)

[ashen orbit]

oh ok

thanks

:)

[winter tapir]

Could I use res.sendStatus() before I execute my code with a 204 status?

[lyric mountain]

Maybe, worth a try

Tho I think u need to handle your callback async instead

[winter tapir]

I would be unsure how I would integrate those params within my listener

app.post(
  '/dblwebhook',
  webhook.listener((vote) => {
    console.log(vote.user);

    return bot.emit(vote, bot, app);
  })
);

[lyric mountain]

Since the lib will also return 2xx when u end it

Oh is that express?

[winter tapir]

yes

[lyric mountain]

Idk how express works, but u could always simply ```js
new Promise(() => {
// code
})

return // whatever u need to return in express

[boreal iron]

Literally all of their enums moved to PascalCase

[winter tapir]

I figured it out

app.post(
  '/dblwebhook',
  async (req, res) => webhook.listener((vote) => {
    res.sendStatus(204);

    console.log(vote.user);

    return bot.emit(vote, bot, app);
  })
);

I think this should send the response to top.gg

So the webhook doesn't retry

[boreal iron]

I was actually close to ask if you already figured out to send a legitimate response to the request

But thought no, you would have been through this already

[winter tapir]

Haha, I just love debugging code for hours (me trying to figure out basic js ive done a million times already)

[boreal iron]

lol

Ik how you feel

sometimes

[ashen orbit]

the joys of v14

[sharp geyser]

That's not a lot tbh

[naive relic]

v14 of what?

discord js?

[sharp geyser]

yes

[naive relic]

i haven't tried out v14 yet, how is it? what new changes are there (been sticking with the python discord api wrappers lately so haven't even been doing much js)

[lyric mountain]

Changes = once again, adding a new word to property chain

[wheat mesa]

inb4 djs devs complaining about changing 3 lines of code because of a major version change

[winter tapir]

2022-07-18T04:24:08.245962+00:00 heroku[router]: at=error code=H12 desc="Request timeout" method=POST path="/dblwebhook" host=den-utilities.herokuapp.com request_id=e61d0b4a-93a3-4131-b3e4-880737d00e75 fwd="159.203.105.187" dyno=web.1 connect=0ms service=30000ms status=503 bytes=0 protocol=https

I get this request timeout, I'm not sure what this means.

[winter tapir]

Djs support itself was flooded with that 🤣

[sharp geyser]

I am going to go with it timed out

Took too long to try and form the request

[winter tapir]

How would I resolve this issue?

app.post(
  '/dblwebhook',
  async (req, res) => webhook.listener((vote) => {
    res.sendStatus(204);

    console.log(vote.user);

    return bot.emit(vote, bot, app);
  })
);

this is all my code for the app.post

[wheat mesa]

Why are you returning an event emit?

Not all functions need to return something. Just emit the event and move on

Perhaps try using the actual example from the node SDK’s readme: ```js

const express = require('express')
const Topgg = require('@top-gg/sdk')

const app = express() // Your express app

const webhook = new Topgg.Webhook('topggauth123') // add your Top.gg webhook authorization (not bot token)

app.post('/dblwebhook', webhook.listener(vote => {
// vote is your vote object
console.log(vote.user) // 221221226561929217
})) // attach the middleware

app.listen(3000) // your port

[winter tapir]

I am using that tho, I can remove the return statement tho, but i don’t see why me adding extra onto it would cause an issue

[wheat mesa]

You’re not. You have a different second parameter

[winter tapir]

So I should remove the req and res params?

[wheat mesa]

Try it exactly as the example shows

[near stratus]

Did discord.js released 2 versions overnight?

I went to sleep seeing 13.9

[winter tapir]

Crawl released v14 today

[near stratus]

now I see 14.0.1

[winter tapir]

Yeah it was cause of a bug

With builders and installation

[compact pewter]

how to get the topgg api

token

to use it in sdk

[winter tapir]

You make one yourself

[near stratus]

no

[winter tapir]

Did they not mean the auth?

[near stratus]

You copy it from bot webhook page

[near stratus]

api token

[winter tapir]

Ahh, that’s what they meant

My mistake

[compact pewter]

🤔 umm there are no webhooks there

[near stratus]

You need a verified bot for that

[compact pewter]

🥺 u mean i need to get my bot verified for getting it voted from top gg?

[near stratus]

you have to get your bot verified from top.gg

[compact pewter]

ohh i have submitted it

it will take 1-2 weeks

[near stratus]

now wait

[compact pewter]

hmm thanks

[near stratus]

Back at my days it used to take 8 weeks

[compact pewter]

what the ... seriously

[near stratus]

yea

they were short on stuff or something

[compact pewter]

oo

[near stratus]

v14

[stable eagle]

wait that exists? wow never knew

[pale vessel]

Bruh...

That's actually sad to hear

[pine nova]

damn v14 released

imma stick to 13 fr

[near stratus]

That's what I said with v12

[pearl trail]

v14 released?

[sharp geyser]

yye

[sharp geyser]

@round cove ok so prisma is kinda nice ig

I am liking it so far

At this point all I gotta think about is design

prisma handles everything else for me

model Profile {
  id            Int @id @default(autoincrement())
  race          String
  currentWeapon String @default("Rusty Sword")
  user          User @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id])
  userId        String @unique
  balance       Int @default(1000)
  level         Int @default(0)
  xp            Int @default(0)

}

model User {
  id            String @unique @db.VarChar(22)
  iventory      Item[]
  profile       Profile?

  @@index([id])
}

So I have these two prisma models and I am starting to think I don't even need the two of em. I could just combine the data they store into one no? That would make sense to me, but I am horrible at database design so idk if there is any benefit to doing it this way

[pearl trail]

yay this simple thing didn't work!

[pine nova]

💀

[boreal iron]

A button not being an URL requires a custom ID

[near stratus]

Try something Like

const HelpSelectRow: ActionRowBuilder<SelectMenuBuilder> = new ActionRowBuilder();

[sharp geyser]

that doesn't matter

[pearl trail]

yeah, i was just doing that for testing purpose, so not complete, but yeah the row type thingy

[sharp geyser]

forcing it to have that type isn't a fix.

[pearl trail]

💀

[boreal iron]

Sure just wanted to say that as the result is an API error

Invalid form body thingy

[near stratus]

For buttons const HelpButtonRow: ActionRowBuilder<ButtonBuilder> = new ActionRowBuilder()

[near stratus]

You haven't seen any discord.js typescript fixes

[sharp geyser]

It shouldn't be an issue in the first place

failed typings causes shit like this

[near stratus]

have been since beginning of time

[sharp geyser]

yes because djs codebase is a shit show

[near stratus]

it was never made for ts

They just kept adding patches

[pearl trail]

ah this thing helped me, thanks for helping me here #824411059443204127 message

[sharp geyser]

They should just start from scratch imo

instead of trying to add typings themselves

[near stratus]

They don't have the balls to do it
Discord api is huge

[sharp geyser]

It isn't that hard

I could do it myself if I had more knowledge in ts

I just am not ready yet

[boreal iron]

Just push an object of components to your response as the API expects it
That will fix all your issues

Instead of using the builders

Also this will prevent you from updating your code over and over again on each djs relrease

[near stratus]

at this rate making my own builder sounds better

[pearl trail]

well for some reason, i use builders but i collect all of them in 1 file lmao from now on

[sharp geyser]

One thing I don't get, all these people complain about djs but do nothing about it

[boreal iron]

It’s easier to complain about things than changing your life dingus

[near stratus]

Like you have a choice?
We all complain about discord but none of us have actually left it

[sharp geyser]

you do have a choice

[near stratus]

same with djs

[sharp geyser]

people just choose not to do anything

[pearl trail]

[near stratus]

Eris?
Thay take years to update

[sharp geyser]

cause its better to complain then do anything like fake said

nah just grow some balls and go libless

[near stratus]

I stopped complaining long ago

[sharp geyser]

learn the discord api yourself and make your application 10x more performant in the process

[near stratus]

tried

[boreal iron]

Imagine nobody would complain anymore. What a sad world if anybody just smilies 24/7

[near stratus]

Discord api is fucking huge

[sharp geyser]

meh

I am planning on getting a group together to make a better package.

Lets see if that ends up happening

[near stratus]

Get a job and you'll be used to it

[sharp geyser]

pretty sure fake has a job

although sometimes i am not certain

with the amount of time he is on discord

[near stratus]

plot twist: he works at discord

[boreal iron]

Let’s be honest for the most projects the lib is totally okay
Using this instead of developing your own entire wrapper is much easier and less time consuming
Also you usually only run into issues like this if you’re getting deeper into using a library issuing internal inconsistencies
The common user copy and pasting his code together who literally has no clue about what he does is okay with this

[near stratus]

Anyways
How do I rotate a text box in css?

[boreal iron]

lol

your account will be suspended soon

[near stratus]

*smirk, I'm in danger

[sharp geyser]

While all this is factual, there are hardly libs out there that gives full control to the user

more experienced devs are left with the lack luster performance the other libs provide

They get barely any control on how things like caching is done

[boreal iron]

That’s what I said
The deeper you’re getting into this the more issues and inconsistencies you experience
But that won’t even happen for the most users I guess

[near stratus]

well discord.js provider raw option
You can do anything with it
with Eslint screaming Can't import private

[sharp geyser]

Thats cool and all

but djs is a bloat to begin with

[near stratus]

yes

They made it easier for new users

and anything on the surface

[sharp geyser]

I'd rather use something that has only the bare basics and give more control to the user

yes djs is perfect for newer users

[boreal iron]

True but let’s be honest it’s actually nicely documented and regarding its popularity it provides tons of examples and support anywhere

[sharp geyser]

but once you start developing a bot that relies on performance djs just doesn't cut it

[near stratus]

Tim made a lib like that

[sharp geyser]

indeed tim's lib is amazing as well

[near stratus]

noone uses it tho
Not that anyone knows

[sharp geyser]

I use it from time to time

[boreal iron]

Can’t complain

Maybe this will start getting an issue after 10000s of guilds

[sharp geyser]

And it is very hard to make a user friendly performant lib

[boreal iron]

Including sharding etc

[near stratus]

But I plan on building a lib on top of that
Would be better than startinf from scratch

[sharp geyser]

I prefer starting from scratch

[near stratus]

I don't have metal balls

• I go to med school

[sharp geyser]

I've worked with discords api enough by now that I am used to it

[sharp geyser]

In an ideal world, we could make a user friendly and performant lib

though that balance is hard to achieve

[near stratus]

The only thing I tried raw is oauth2
And normal stuff like webhooks, users, guilds

[sharp geyser]

first thing I ever did with the discord api itself was oauth

Now its second nature to me

[near stratus]

talking of oauth2 I spent hours trying to fix an error
Turns out when generating token from code they accept url param instead of json

[sharp geyser]

yes

[boreal iron]

After of developing community panels managing servers, players and backends of gaming communities which was made to be idiot-save it turns out it wasn’t
When I was thinking I created something easy to use and understandable it turns out people around the world had issues using it
So I got feedback and started to design things differently and had to readjust many things over and over again to make them more user-friendly even if they were already

[sharp geyser]

you can also send stringified json iirc

I don't remember tho

[boreal iron]

Just because of a few plebs around the world

[near stratus]

nah don't work
That was the error

[sharp geyser]

ah ic

[near stratus]

end users are dum

[sharp geyser]

Yes, but when people focus too much on the user friendly aspect they typicallyy leave out performance as it is just easier to focus on one than the other

[boreal iron]

Building something really user-friendly and accessible but also following development principles is damn complicated

[sharp geyser]

I'd love to get people together and make a lib that can be a better alternative when looking for performance

[boreal iron]

It’s always a mix of driving in between all of them

[sharp geyser]

I've found the hardest challenge when programming is finding a team

hardly anyone has the motivation to actually do the goal

[boreal iron]

That’s the reason I did anything myself

[sharp geyser]

I dislike doing everything myself

it brings me no joy at all

[boreal iron]

Even if that ended up getting projects stretched like close to 2 years

[near stratus]

I'm sure you'll get a good job in the future

[sharp geyser]

pfft

[near stratus]

no seriously

[sharp geyser]

Im not working for some corporate company

They don't care about the people who use their products

[near stratus]

noney

[sharp geyser]

all they care about is the money they generate

[near stratus]

You need money to care about users

[sharp geyser]

I'd sooner just quit the career than work for a company like that

[boreal iron]

You will work in my mine to collect sulfur with your bare hands

[sharp geyser]

Nah

I'd sooner just make my own company

smh

[boreal iron]

But you will be payed with bread and water

[sharp geyser]

I will pay you back with a foot in the ass

[near stratus]

I remember that from Indonesia

[sharp geyser]

nah but seriously

[boreal iron]

Seriously running your own business is hard and much more work than just being an employee

[sharp geyser]

While that is true

I don't really care about the hardships

Anything to achieve my goals

[near stratus]

Being a employee ensures safe income

[sharp geyser]

Yes but then to me that just brings lack of value to life

[near stratus]

Almost all the time

[sharp geyser]

No hate to people who want a safe life

but I feel if you aren't taking risks are you truly living?

I don't wanna die with regrets

[boreal iron]

Nothing is save these days, companies tend to throw out people quicker than you think

[near stratus]

take risk in stock market

[boreal iron]

Sometimes even companies running in a good state

[boreal iron]

lol

[near stratus]

Why do you think I'm going to med college?

[sharp geyser]

Meh this is just my babbling pay no mind to it

[boreal iron]

Because you’re addicted to help people once a beautiful day you’re finished

Which is good

[near stratus]

I-

[boreal iron]

-|

[sharp geyser]

I feel a lot of people take programming the wrong way

A lot don't understand how valuable it can be

[near stratus]

Trust me, There are more programmers than teachers in our country

[sharp geyser]

While that may be true

[near stratus]

Like everyone knows how to code

[near stratus]

Welcome to south asia

[sharp geyser]

there are also a lot who take advantage of programming and use it for bad

rather than what it should really be used for

[near stratus]

that's russia

[sharp geyser]

no

you can't just push that to one place

A lot of places do it

[near stratus]

most of that comes from there

[sharp geyser]

Asia, Europe, Australia, US

[sharp geyser]

there are also a lot of it in asia as well

[near stratus]

Like most scam call centers are in India
Hackers in Russia
Karens in US

[sharp geyser]

US as well

[boreal iron]

Not really most of it comes from the US and Korea

[sharp geyser]

^

[boreal iron]

But we don’t read about that every day

[near stratus]

which korea
I tought south was good

[sharp geyser]

how naive

[near stratus]

dunno about north

all I see in nukes from there

[sharp geyser]

😔

[boreal iron]

Since Russian propaganda is easier to bring under people then telling them their entire country and world is being spied and controlled by the US

[sharp geyser]

That convo just now Akio made me extremely sad

[near stratus]

It's not me okay

I open news and I see that

[boreal iron]

World largest amount of hackers are working for the US intelligence agencies

[sharp geyser]

The news isn't always right

in fact a lot of it is bs to begin with

[near stratus]

See

[sharp geyser]

The news is just a political tool

[boreal iron]

Public news are only meant to keep people stupid and control their fears

[sharp geyser]

Anyways if anyone wants to team up and form a small dev team dm me

I gtg

[boreal iron]

While there’s some interesting well researched article sometimes 99% is just the same propaganda

[near stratus]

I dunno what to think anymore

[boreal iron]

A lot of people understand that over time

Later in their life

Unfortunately not enough people tho

How they’re getting controlled and manipulated 24/7

[near stratus]

Imaa stop watching new at this rate

[sharp geyser]

The news used to not be so bad

[boreal iron]

Like the US people think healthcare is something bad and socialism regarding this will destroy their entire country

Just to@mention one example

[sharp geyser]

but it slowly became a political tool for the politicians in the US

[boreal iron]

But yeah… that’s moving into a political discussion

At the end there are only two sorts of people, those who understand and those who don’t understand or wanna believe what’s going on

Trusting what they see and read everyday

Blindly falling to any propaganda

[earnest phoenix]

deprecated

[pine nova]

💀

[boreal iron]

FINALLY

No more breaking changes

[ancient nova]

lmfao what

[earnest phoenix]

idk man i am confused

[ancient nova]

"published 2 hours ago" "no longer supported" wot man wot

the discord.js devs trippin

[pine nova]

there is no select menu component in discordjs? its showing me in the docs tho

[near stratus]

there is

lemme get docs

[winged temple]

why are you importing component?

[near stratus]

Your vsc broken

[pine nova]

yea its in the docs but not in the autocomplete

[earnest phoenix]

in v14 i think SelectMenuBuilder()

or something like that

[pine nova]

no i was just searching all the components

[pine nova]

13

[near stratus]

@pine novahttps://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/main/class/SelectMenuComponent

[winged temple]

doesn’t work on vs, it only gives suggestions for previously written code

[pine nova]

yea as i said its in the docs but autcomplete is not showing it

[winged temple]

annoying af

[pine nova]

no it shows all the classes, properties and shit that are available in the discord package tho

[winged temple]

that shit haven’t worked for me in ages

[near stratus]

Restart vsc something must have goone wrong

[pine nova]

see

[sharp geyser]

If only this were true

[pine nova]

nop not working

[earnest phoenix]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sharp geyser]

Sadly djs is not deprecated

😔

[pine nova]

bruhga

why is not showing for me

💀

[near stratus]

I'm getting 1000 options

[pine nova]

i am getting only 3

copium

[winged temple]

any special plugins or something? cus that’s never displayed for me either

[pine nova]

its built in

just press ctrl+space

[winged temple]

I know how to do it bruh 💀

[pine nova]

💀

[winged temple]

it’s just that it only displays what I’ve previously written

[ancient nova]

discord.js 2.0

[winged temple]

instead of all available options

[sharp geyser]

I wish djs was deprecated as a whole

[pine nova]

imagine then using eris

[winged temple]

💀

bruh

straight up bullying us

[near stratus]

Wrong file

[boreal iron]

Is this once again the right moment to tell you not to use the builders at all?

[near stratus]

@winged temple @pine nova

[winged temple]

cant view that on a phone

[winged temple]

me using slashcommandbuilder: 💀

[near stratus]

It's me showing the 1000 component options

[winged temple]

bruh

[pine nova]

not giving me any options except those 3

tried using import syntax too

fr

[near stratus]

You sure that's vsc?

[pine nova]

yea lmao

is select menu only in v14 or in v13 too?

[winged temple]

what version of discord.js?

[pine nova]

version of js?

o

13.8.1

[winged temple]

hmm

try reinstalling it

[pine nova]

is it not available in that version?

[winged temple]

idfk honestly

[boreal iron]

Take a look into the docs

[pine nova]

ah yes

there is no

select menu

in v13

mf

discordjs

[winged temple]

L

[winged temple]

yes there is

[pearl trail]

it is MessageSelectMenu v13

[pine nova]

no

[winged temple]

the select menu yes

[near stratus]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/13.8.1/typedef/MessageSelectMenuOptions

[pine nova]

selectmenucomponent

no thats not the same

💀

[winged temple]

it’s literally just renamed

[pine nova]

for modals

bro

[near stratus]

sorry thishttps://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/13.8.1/class/MessageSelectMenu

[pine nova]

o wait

[winged temple]

what r you even tryna do

[pearl trail]

^

[winged temple]

select menus

or modals

[pine nova]

wait wait so selectmenucomponent and messageselectmenu are same just renamed?

[boreal iron]

Isn’t it select menu field?

[winged temple]

yes

[winged temple]

that would be text

I believe

he wants that drop down stuff

[boreal iron]

Omg i was on modals

[winged temple]

but inside a model

[boreal iron]

Sry

[pine nova]

yes

[ancient nova]

I don't think changing the top.gg page helped at all with the problem of no one adding the bot

[winged temple]

is that even possible?

[pine nova]

idk

[pearl trail]

afaik it doesn't

[pine nova]

should be tho

[pearl trail]

it just supports short and paragraph

[near stratus]

not sure if SelectMenuBuilder or SelectMenuComponent but yes

[pine nova]

just these 2?

[pearl trail]

yep, afaik

[pine nova]

bruh

imma

quit

[winged temple]

yeah I was like why this dude tryna use select menus in a model

[pine nova]

:copium:

[winged temple]

why do you even need

a select menu

inside of a model

[pearl trail]

it is SelectMenuBuilder, SelectMenuComponent is just a SelectMenuBuilder without a functions and read-only data 😩

[pine nova]

display all channels of guild and select one of them

[near stratus]

yes

[winged temple]

do a command that will give you the select menu stuff

and then from there

[pine nova]

i wanted to use modals tho

[winged temple]

read the information from that chabbel

[pine nova]

otherwise i would have done that ages ago

modals kinda cleaner

💀

[winged temple]

it’s just a few extra steps

[pine nova]

no i mean

i want to use modals

[near stratus]

wait a few more months

[winged temple]

well too bad

[pine nova]

yea

ig i will do that

now i have nothing to work on again

[winged temple]

ticket system?

make that

[near stratus]

buld a raytracer with js

[pine nova]

o no i dont mean just discord bots

[pine nova]

💀

[sharp geyser]

doing that in js just sounds painful

[pine nova]

will try that ig

yea

[sharp geyser]

@woeful pike aren't you making a raytracer?

[near stratus]

yet someone did that because they were too bored

https://github.com/ercang/raytracer-js

[winged temple]

poor dude

[pine nova]

why does this package has selectmenu in modals https://www.npmjs.com/package/discord-modals

[near stratus]

man had no life

[winged temple]

fr

[sharp geyser]

Cause you can use select menus in modals

[pine nova]

WHAT

RN

[winged temple]

LOOL

[near stratus]

wait seriously?

[pine nova]

YA ALL SAID U CANT USE

[sharp geyser]

It has been a thing for a decent bit

[pine nova]

bruh

[winged temple]

with discord.js

[pine nova]

i have something to work on now

[near stratus]

I didn't know either

[sharp geyser]

I don't think djs supports it yet

[pine nova]

i figured like why the f wouldnt there be select menus in modals

[sharp geyser]

but you 100% can

[pine nova]

i see ig i will use that package then

[pearl trail]

are you sure?

[sharp geyser]

Yes I am sure

I've seen people do it

[pine nova]

u mean inside the modals right?

[sharp geyser]

mhm

[pine nova]

i see i see

[woeful pike]

yeah i did most of what I wanted to do with it though

[boreal iron]

Those aren’t fully supported yet

[winged temple]

try it 🤷‍♂️

[sharp geyser]

yes but it is still possible

it is still highly experimental

[sharp geyser]

What did you make it in? Rust?

[pearl trail]

and will be available only to a small percentage of discord users

[woeful pike]

ye

[sharp geyser]

nice nice

[ancient nova]

if (settings.antiSpam === "true" && permlevel(message) === 0 && !message.member.permissions.has("MANAGE_MESSAGES")) {
``` is there any way to optimise this? It's in the messageCreate event

[sharp geyser]

@earnest phoenix what do you think of this code

anyway to optimize it

[ancient nova]

I know it's bad that's why I'm asking if there is a better way to do this

[earnest phoenix]

=== "true" I may need to bleach my eyes

[sharp geyser]

Lmfao

[ancient nova]

OK RELAX

it's just the way I wrote my settings sytem

[sharp geyser]

one thing you can do is

not use strings

and use actual bools

[ancient nova]

settings.antispam returns a string

[earnest phoenix]

And why is that?

[sharp geyser]

then make it return a bool dingus

[ancient nova]

becausse that's the way I wrote my settings system

[near stratus]

eval(settings.antispam) === true

[ancient nova]

really

[sharp geyser]

just use bools for the love of god

[earnest phoenix]

That's not the point, why does it have to be a string in your case?

[sharp geyser]

why did you even think of using strings

[ancient nova]

because I made my saving system save them as strings as accident and to edit that I would have to rewrite 3 scripts where each of them I have to recast it to bool before saving ALSO I would have to rewrite 2312434 commands to remove the string from them

[earnest phoenix]

Then do it, simple

[sharp geyser]

"accident"

[near stratus]

when you add " in sql

[ancient nova]

it will take me ages

[near stratus]

You came here to optimize the code anyway

[sharp geyser]

do you want optimized code or not?

[ancient nova]

😐

ok that's kinda true

[earnest phoenix]

Trust me, it wouldn't; rewriting documents across the whole database to a different value won't take much time

You have to work smarter, not harder

[sharp geyser]

just tell the users fuck you and wipe the db

they will understand

trust me

[ancient nova]

wait voltrex it'll show you how I made that

[near stratus]

I turned my bot off for 4 weeks and even tho I got 48 new servers instead of losing any

ppl are dumb

[sharp geyser]

Lmao

[ancient nova]

// this is the value that will be settings.someSetting
const joinedValue = value.join(" ");

// Update the setting
settings.set(message.guild.id, joinedValue, key);

[earnest phoenix]

[near stratus]

I have no idea what that is

[ancient nova]

this is basically what I do, now before you say anything, I would have to delete my entire db because people already saved joinedValue as a string before PLUS rewriting those couple commands, events and handlers

would you really bother with that

[sharp geyser]

yes

I 100% would

[ancient nova]

settings is a enmap
value is just args

key is the setting

[quartz kindle]

sqlite >>>>>> enmap

[earnest phoenix]

You have done something dumb, now take action upon it and sanitize the values and what gets saved

[near stratus]

can't you create another backup db > copy all values with Bool > delete orginal

Pp

[earnest phoenix]

And you don't have to delete the entire database, you just have to edit the documents with the certain values to a different value

[near stratus]

Altering tables are way too much risk without backup

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, backing up the database is a good idea

[sharp geyser]

you guys are way too meallow

i'd just tell the people to fuck off

[near stratus]

that works too

[sharp geyser]

wipe db start over

[ancient nova]

[near stratus]

Create a new bot instead

[sharp geyser]

might as well

I am scared to look at his bot's source code

you'd probably find regex everywhere

[ancient nova]

I only used regex where it was necessary

[near stratus]

eww regex

[sharp geyser]

doubt

[ancient nova]

also the bot is quite decently responsive actually

[earnest phoenix]

You look at the source and it looks like a parser with regex

[ancient nova]

it uses around 80-90mb of ram and 4% cpu even under load

[sharp geyser]

lmao

[near stratus]

I's sure those string bools cause half of it

[sharp geyser]

80-90mb of ram?

I know you capping now

[ancient nova]

no

[sharp geyser]

djs eats hella

[near stratus]

man doesn't use djs

[ancient nova]

I'll take a screenshot for u

[sharp geyser]

aint no way he doesn't use djs he was asking for help with djs earlier

[near stratus]

...........

Just with guild cache it'd take 200mb

[earnest phoenix]

I think they meant they're not using discord.js if it doesn't consume way too much RAM

[ancient nova]

well it's a little bit higher now, because I added a lot of new stuff yesterday

but it's still adequently low

[earnest phoenix]

How many guilds does your bot even operate on?

[ancient nova]

~67 last I checked

I'm close to verification

[near stratus]

...............................................

[sharp geyser]

do you use djs?

[near stratus]

bruh

[ancient nova]

yeah

[sharp geyser]

ok boutt to say

would of made me very confused why you'd ask for help with djs and not use it

[near stratus]

nah djs descent with low servers

[quartz kindle]

descent

into darkness

[ancient nova]

what are you trying to say?

[sharp geyser]

djs is bad

[wheat mesa]

Fax

[near stratus]

noone comparing to your lib that one op
chill

[sharp geyser]

someone uses 70gb of ram for 700k servers with djs

[ancient nova]

I'm aware, but I already started so not gonna edit the entire bot into a different language now

[ancient nova]

cap

[wheat mesa]

Nobody said different language

[sharp geyser]

not cap

Reaction Roles bot

[wheat mesa]

Different lib

[sharp geyser]

700k servers 70gb ram

[ancient nova]

no way it uses 70gb ram lmfao

[quartz kindle]

thats not half bad tbh, ive seen 40gb for 150k servers

[near stratus]

Yea they take memory

[sharp geyser]

yea

[earnest phoenix]

Rythm used 5TB+ RAM for 16 million servers

That is a lot of RAM

[quartz kindle]

good riddance

[sharp geyser]

Bro it is 100% factual

[earnest phoenix]

Google Chrome is drooling

[boreal iron]

Is this only your node process usage?

I’ve got like

[near stratus]

That's probably an entire digitalocean cluster

[ancient nova]

wtf

[ancient nova]

yea...

[wheat mesa]

Cake’s notsobot is in 734k servers and uses ~120gb of ram give or take, but it has a LOT cached

It uses detritus

[quartz kindle]

jeez

[earnest phoenix]

I mean it's not really surprising, 16 million servers is way too much

[quartz kindle]

idk why nobody uses lmdb for caching

[lyric mountain]

5TB ram wtf?

[wheat mesa]

Is that overall though? I’m assuming they had load balancing to some extent

[ancient nova]

okay but 5TB????

[sharp geyser]

okay so it was less than 70 but it is getting close

[lyric mountain]

is there even any mb that can handle that much ram?

[ancient nova]

lmfao probably not

[quartz kindle]

its likely not a single machine

[boreal iron]

90M cached members tf

[earnest phoenix]

5TB is nothing for that many servers, I'm sure Rythm doesn't use a single machine

Yeah

[quartz kindle]

its probably a clustered database

[sharp geyser]

they cache every member and channel

[ancient nova]

man that's insane

[boreal iron]

Well if they need to

[sharp geyser]

for a bot of that kind they have to

[ancient nova]

that inspired me to go and rewrite my saving system

[boreal iron]

I mean I’ve got like the default caching options set up too

But still

[sharp geyser]

If you want a successful bot use good coding practices

[boreal iron]

Don’t need to optimize them yet

[sharp geyser]

no one is going to use a shit bot excluding mee6

[wheat mesa]

I feel like a lot of bot devs have high mem usage because they’re lazy and don’t optimize their caches

[ancient nova]

from 120MB how low do you guys think it'll go after removing all the string comparision checks?

[wheat mesa]

Literally nothing will change lol

[quartz kindle]

or they dont know how

[ancient nova]

then what's the point?

😐

[near stratus]

a few kb > mb

[sharp geyser]

cause it is dumb to store bools as strings

[wheat mesa]

RAM is not the only thing you have to worry about

[sharp geyser]

^

[wheat mesa]

Comparing strings instead of bools is a LOT slower

It has to compare character by character

[quartz kindle]

a lot of bot devs were never expecting their success so now they race against time trying to figure out how to improve it

[ancient nova]

if it's only dumb and doesn't cause that much of a performance difference what's the point

[wheat mesa]

Whereas bools only need to compare 1 bit

[ancient nova]

yeah fine

[sharp geyser]

cause like waffle said

it is faster

[ancient nova]

I'll rewrite it we'll see how much faster it is

[sharp geyser]

speed is another factor to take into account

[wheat mesa]

Which is extremely fast and probably optimized into bitwise operations which are incredibly fast

[quartz kindle]

ferpormance

[wheat mesa]

You probably won’t notice a difference, but it’s still a good practice to not sacrifice speed where you don’t need to

[sharp geyser]

it def won't be noticeable for how little severs your bot is in

[sharp geyser]

also gm

[wheat mesa]

Gm

[pine nova]

hey can someone help me with this? i am getting this error in modals

                    )
            ])

        await interaction.showModal(announcementModal)

[sharp geyser]

did you see my mention in detritus?

idk if that is what you were looking for

[wheat mesa]

It’s not fully supported by the API yet

[pine nova]

the select menu component?

[near stratus]

told you not supported

[sharp geyser]

it is still experimental

[pine nova]

i see

so i can only use

text menu

[boreal iron]

My gosh it’s not officially released or finished yet

[pine nova]

component

[ancient nova]

you guys are getting me to want to rewrite it and then not want to rewrite it at the same time

[ancient nova]

"big performance difference" but "won't be noticeable"

[wheat mesa]

I got it to work with detritus but I was unable to get the response from the user

[near stratus]

It will when running benchmark

[wheat mesa]

My man you used strings out of laziness, you shouldn’t be sacrificing speed even if it’s not noticeable
