The process logs the same vote twice therefore also sends the vote log message twice which is kinda annoying

jaunty plank
are you responding to the webhook quickly?
we have a retrial system, if the webhook isnt responded to quickly it will retry the webhook because it didn't think the webhook was received.
raw hornet
It wasnt an issue a few days before none of my code changed either so thats why Im wondering
jaunty plank
Well, for example if you send a message to discord and wait to respond to the webhook until after then it might just be the discord api being a bit slow.
The other way to correct it is just storing votes temporarily in memory.
If someone voted a second ago ignore any votes from the same person shortly after.

It worked fine before so idk whats wrong but ill see what I can do thanks!

restive otter
Where you host the webhook listener
e.g. http://IP:PORT/something
Where IP could be your VPS IP and PORT the port where the listener is running
If you're running it locally you'll need to enable port forwarding, which is not recommended so I'd recommend you to use a proper VPS if it's the case - same place where you host the bot itself

there is no way to do it without webhooks
vague cosmos
ah okay
restive otter
Either IP:PORT of your VPS
Or domain and port if necessary
How do you connect to your VPS
Then ask them
restive otter
Or domain and port if necessary
^
None is better
The difference is what's used, IP or domain
In the end it's an URL containing either IP or domain, and if needed a port, of where the web server is running so that Top.gg can make a request there and your web server is handling it correctly.
Then the port used will be 5000
Then it won't run because its a coroutine and must be awaited
No
It will be http(s)://domain:port/path
.com is part of your domain
Path will be whatever path you use to catch the request Top.gg will make
There is only one port, as shown above
http(s)://domain:port/path
restive otter
`http(s)://domain:port/path`
But where I put the top.gg port ?
No where, it doesn't need any port
Top.gg will make a request to the URL you give
In that URL you give the port of the web server that is running
restive otter
No where, it doesn't need any port
So what is the bot.topgg_webhook.run(5000) for ?
To start a web server on port 5000
restive otter
To start a web server on port 5000
And where write the number of this port ?
restive otter
`http(s)://domain:port/path`

But I already have a port in my heberger
Just as side note, you don't need to reply ping on every message. We're only 2 talking it's not like we get lost.
And it doesn't matter if you already have a port assigned for something
A computer has multiple ports, so does a server
65535 ports
restive otter
65535 ports
But what happen if the port is already used (I disable the ping)
Then use another port
Not all 65535 ports are used on a computer
If they are, it has a serious problem
restive otter
If they are, it has a serious problem
But it's an hoster
Doesn't matter
They have multiple servers
Not one server for all customers
So I need to use the higher port ?
A different
Higher or lower, doesn't matter
Okay, thanks
restive otter
Higher or lower, doesn't matter
Shall I modify "/dblwebhook" ?
bot.topgg_webhook = topgg.WebhookManager(bot).dbl_webhook("/dblwebhook", "password")
That would be the path
So http(s)://domain:port/dblwebhook
You can change it or not, doesn't matter much
restive otter
You can change it or not, doesn't matter much
I do it in the init or outsite the init (I use class and cog) :

fair osprey
In my opinion the TopPHP library is too little object-oriented like it's a simple "funcion collection".
Actual (user vote check):
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "YOUR TOP.GG API TOKEN HERE."
]);
if($api->connected)
{
$isVoted = $api->get_user_vote(799697654279307314, 242351388137488384);
if($isVoted) echo "This user voted!";
}
in my opinion it is easier for developers to use one that is truly object-oriented like:
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "UWU"
]);
$api->exceptions->manage('notConnected', function(\DBL\ErrorException $e) {
echo "Error: {$e->message}";
}
if ($api->bots->get('1234567890')->hasBeenVoted('12346782899939')) {
echo "User 12346782899939 has voted this beautiful bot!";
}
Because you can enter the required data less times and do more things like:
"I need to get the bot's informations and check if the user has voted!!!"
With normal:
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "YOUR TOP.GG API TOKEN HERE."
]);
if($api->connected)
{
// Omg first i need to get the bot's information because i need the prefix idk
$prefix = $api->find_info(Http::BOT, 799697654279307314)['prefix'];
// Ok NOW i need to check if the user has voted :)
$isVoted = $api->get_user_vote(799697654279307314, 242351388137488384);
if($isVoted) echo "This user voted!";
}
With a more object-oriented version you can create a "bot object" and you won't need to insert the bot ID twice:
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "UWU"
]);
$api->exceptions->manage('notConnected', function(\DBL\ErrorException $e) {
echo "Error: {$e->message}";
}
// Only if is connected
$bot = $api->bots->get('123467783238475');
// Now get the prefix
$prefix = $bot->prefix;
// And check if an user has voted
$has_user_voted = $bot->hasBeenVoted('15637485968547');
// Perfect
And one other important thing: objects take less memory than arrays so they're better

Hello, how can I create a command that will list the top voters?
runic creek
You must first collect these votes somehow (preferably with a webhook), then store them in the database, when you want to get the top voters you take their number of votes and sort them from the most
fair osprey
In what language?
runic creek
There are so many possibilities to do something like this, it's all up to you how you do it
jaunty plank
In what language?
realistically in any programming language someone here would be using.
fair osprey

Are there any open source snippets of bots that do this?
runic creek
I'm not sure, I've never been that interested in it
jaunty plank
hmm why top.gg API aren't in a SocketConnection but you use webhooks for managin...
sockets would require a lot more development, and are kind of pointless in this case.
Webhooks are the 'proper' way of handling something like this.
Especially since things can be retried(if your webhook/bot is offline for 10 minutes you shouldnt miss any votes)
fair osprey
sockets would require a lot more development, and are kind of pointless in this ...
sockets aren't as hard as some people say
Anyways you're right about the webhoock possibility of retrying but for me (who is developing the new PHP library for Top.gg) webhook management will be harder than WebSockets
fair osprey
oh yes, I stupidly didn't think about socket load balancing
jaunty plank
I have considered making a webhook to websocket thing for my webhook service, and the only reason I havent is it would have to be a premium feature.
Even at my much smaller scale its still not simple.
fair osprey
i have used sockets only for creating a stupid online game (written in JavaScript) so I don't know as much about them however they are easy to manage, mainly for events.
Discord that has money uses them while top.gg uses webhooks
jaunty plank
Discord has to use sockets tbh
But even they are moving to webhooks as much as possible
slash commands use webhooks
If they could, they would make every bot use this.
https://i.imgur.com/4EFyqPO.png
fair osprey
slash commands use webhooks
what?
DiscordPHP if i'm not wrong get slash commands by websocket
fair osprey
not four?
jaunty plank
is it four? 👀
fair osprey
I'm not counting how long discord gets angry because the bot stumbled over some mistake I made but I think it's about four seconds but I could be wrong
jaunty plank
at least webhooks are simple ^_^
rain heart
Not one supported yeah, using it anyways won't give you any support for it
fair osprey
I don't really have the URL so even if I wanted to I couldn't
fair osprey
just one more question.
When I get a Webhook I get a POST request with the fields given in the documentation but where do I check the Authorization parameter?
Is it in the headers by any chance?
rain heart
Authorization header it is called
plucky lance
now i must add ReactPHP to TopPHP for webhooks management :(
Why would you add or want to add an unecessary library to the topgg-php-library to manage webhooks?
All it takes is to enter the entire url and callable php file as webhook url and get the request data calling file_get_contents().#
fair osprey
Why would you add or want to add an unecessary library to the topgg-php-library ...
React is no-stopping so if you want to use the topgg-php-library for example in a DiscordPHP bot it will be ok
plucky lance
As well as using the $_SERVER GLOBALS to verify the source IP and get the headers calling getallheaders() to verify the authorization if somebody is using it
fair osprey
All it takes is to enter the entire url and callable php file as webhook url and...
it will work only in a web-development situation, in a CLI situation it won't
and because of this we need to open a webserver on the library
plucky lance
I feel like you're thinking into it a bit too deep.
Did you take a look at the other libraries by any chance, for example the JS one?
fair osprey
I feel like you're thinking into it a bit too deep.
Did you take a look at the o...
Js includes asynchronous function handling, PHP does not
plucky lance
I would actually provide a standalone build people can add to their environment not providing an entire library that covers any possibly way of handling requests.
I wouldn't add react to just make use of the webserver.
fair osprey
reactphp doesn't weigh that much come on
fair osprey
I wouldn't add react to just make use of the webserver.
*non-blocking
is not a normal webserver
plucky lance
while that is true, I would always try to avoid unnecessary libs if possible
fair osprey
also me but reactphp is used by a lots of projects
and is better to have ReactPHP as dependence than cURL
plucky lance
the (other) lib(s) actually doesn't serve a webserver, just simply the request management
fair osprey
what?
plucky lance
it's optional to include other libs as webserver or spoken middleware
fair osprey
so would you suggest making the react/http library optional
i can do this but removing react for the webhook management is inconvenient
plucky lance
That would at least follow the same way how the existing libs are handling it
Using your own middleware using the JS lib is the default, too
Optionally you can go with the one in the script examples
The lib for example doesn't include express as dependency
plucky lance
err np, just wanted to share my thoughts
plucky lance
as it's totally up to you how you wanna do it anyways
I wonder anybody even has the time to touch the topgg-php lib anyways :D
fair osprey
is "you're welcome" correct in this case?
Omg idk english wery well
fair osprey
I wonder anybody even has the time to touch the topgg-php lib anyways :D
I am rewriting it from scratch because I have nothing to do 😢
plucky lance
sounds about right, yeah 
plucky lance
I am rewriting it from scratch because I have nothing to do 😢
lol
fair osprey
just a question
do you prefer the old style (example:
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "YOUR TOP.GG API TOKEN HERE."
]);
if($api->connected)
{
$isVoted = $api->get_user_vote(799697654279307314, 242351388137488384);
if($isVoted) echo "This user voted!";
}
)
or the new style (example:
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "UWU"
]);
$api->exceptions->manage('notConnected', function(\DBL\ErrorException $e) {
echo "Error: {$e->message}";
}
if ($api->bots->get('1234567890')->hasBeenVoted('12346782899939')) {
echo "User 12346782899939 has voted this beautiful bot!";
}
)?
plucky lance
well personally I would go with the fully oop style 2nd one but you gonna keep things as simple as possible as not everybody using the libs really knows what he does
vagrant birch
do you prefer the old style (example:
```php
$api = new DBL([
"token" => "...
What is this dude ?
plucky lance
so handling the exceptions internally would probably be better
fair osprey

In my opinion, a well object-oriented library turns out to be easier for everyone
vagrant birch
fair osprey
What is this dude ?
plucky lance
Even if everything is documented and explained correctly a lot of people still don't read it or understand what things means or do
plucky lance
In my opinion, a well object-oriented library turns out to be easier for everyon...
if people would only understand oop 
but if you wanna maintain this than choose whatever u prefer I guess
fair osprey
let's try the oop library
i just hope to document it well
anyways internal exceptions manager is a little bit ugly because you can define the return functions for all the errors UNTIL you don't "open another object" (like $topgg->bots)
plucky lance
true, if you wanna keep a non-blocking style throwing an exception wouldn't make much sense here, too
plucky lance

how to get "topgg_auth""topgg_api""topggWebhook_auth"
fair osprey
?
runic creek
Because you have to set it
Read the pinned messages and you'll understand what's going on

Can I know exactly when a user voted for my bot with api endpoints in python? Or the only way is using the on_dbl_vote event with a webhook because I want to reward users but I can't make sure that they don't repeatedly claim the reward
restive otter
Webhook
inner pelican
axios({
method: 'get',
url: `https://top.gg/api/bots/${clientId}/check?userId=${userId}`,
Headers: {
"Authorization": topGgAuth
}
})
.then((response) => {
console.log(response)
})
``` i have this code to try and check if a user has voted for my bot however it always returns unauthorised
when i go to the same url but just in my browser it worksgoing to your browser is correct behaviour as it uses your authorization
go to your webhook section, press "regenerate token" and then refresh the page
the token you then see is the valid one
inner pelican
just regenerated it and i still get the same error
now i changed my code to this and get forbidden ```js
axios({
method: 'get',
url: https://top.gg/api/bots/${clientId}/check?userId=${userId},
headers: {
"Authorization": topGgAuth
}
})
then "topGgAuth" is not the correct token
aka is empty
also ensute that the clientId is indeed your bot and not a different one, as you can only make requests to your own bots endpoint and not a different
inner pelican
nvm got it working
spring oriole
Can you send the code that sends a message to the channel when top.gg is voted for node.js, I really need it please
plucky lance
It's up to you to write your own code
The API docs already give you an example and idea how it works
queen terrace
does anyb know why my bot return 401 when sending a test vote from top.gg. the tgg token is the one found on top.gg/bot/.../webhooks
restive otter
log tgg and see if it is valid
rain heart
Press regenerate token, refresh the page, use the one you see now
queen terrace
just retried with the token stroked badly
still same issue
the autoposter works and it uses same token
rain heart
And you're copying the whole token and not part of it?
then your token isnt properly being passed on your code
fair osprey
I just make a simple proposal:
But why not implement (like Discord) in the headers the number of maximum requests, the number of remaining requests, and the time when the rate limits resets?
It would be much easier to handle rate-limiting with the libraries
fresh wing
I'm not being able to regen the token for my bot api, it just says "success" and ends up giving me the same one and also I'm getting this error 401 for the same piece of code I used to upload stats successfully about an hour ago
It worked before I regened the token, the new token doesn't show up even if it was generated
rain heart
regenerate, refresh the page, use that token
fresh wing
Press regenerate token, **refresh the page**, use the one you see now
regened twice, refreshed page like 3-4 times each time I regened the token. it still didn't give me a new one
rain heart
the first part of your token is always the same
rain heart
then cant help
try it out using postman or just a dummy application to ensure the token is right
or you're not passing it through correctly
fresh wing
welp, I used the same exact code before regening the token for the first time and it worked normally. let me try postman
rain heart
Also providing content type json?
fresh wing
hold up, the api key before regenerating worked
so in conclusion this feature doesn't work
fair osprey
However, I also abusively integrated the possibility of retrieving server information.
Reviews would be appreciated :D
https://github.com/top-gg/php-sdk/pull/4
fresh wing
Click, refresh page, get a fresh token
it does not, trust me, I did exactly as you said. "click here" -> refresh page -> copy full token -> replace it with the old token in the code (which works currently) -> run the code -> get an error 401
Just tried again, the same code after regenerating, started working after 2 minutes
I'm not sure what's going on, did that like a few times the old one worked. Just redid the same thing again and the new one works
thank you
the exact same stuff, 3 minutes apart
fresh wing
https://i.imgur.com/XIGovco.png
not really but it seems though as if it works without setting the content type here
but oh well, it works now, thanks!
jaunty plank
The api expects it to be set
fresh wing
so you mean it may not work if it's not set? basically working always when it's set right
fresh wing
I set it in this with the new token after refreshing, didn't work.

I assume this user too had the same issue
rain heart
they're using the library, which does it itself
trail edge
I am getting a error in this file
Error: TypeError: topgg.getVote is not a fuction
@jaunty plank @rain heart really sry for ping can u guys help
rain heart
no i cannot
trail edge
Ok
plucky lance
getVote(...) obviously doesn't exist
Isnt the function called hasVoted()?
I think so
Where do you even get this method name from?
trail edge
I thought it's getVote
jaunty plank
Yeah sorry, I cant help for awhile 😦
trail edge
<https://topgg.js.org/classes/api#hasVoted>
This gives me error
503 service unavailable
restive otter
503 are server errors
So you can't do anything besides trying again later
The website is also does at the moment, so try again in a few hours
restive otter
No
trail edge
But your name is similar
restive otter
Not a bot developer at all
trail edge
Ohk
restive otter
Similar name doesn't imply similar person 
trail edge
Hehe i fixed the error
🙂
It wasn't getVote it was .getVotes
Stil thanks Krypton
I found from the link you gave
echo hound
Also pinned messages in this channel
I don't understand for you
restive otter
In the "Libraries" section on the documentation you can choose the language you use & see examples
The webhooks section is for you to learn how to use webhooks
echo hound
I am an Arab I don't understand much English
restive otter
And the pinned messages here explain how things work w/ examples
restive otter
I am an Arab I don't understand much English
You can use a translator
echo hound
You can use a translator
I use but I don't understand it
restive otter
Then we can't help
fair osprey
If you use PHP i can help you, otherwise I can't
sudden smelt
how can i make vote notifications were when someone votes it is sent to a channel?
restive otter
Use the webhook functionality, see https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/ && pinned messages in this channel
pulsar adder
How do I fix authorization issue with password
jaunty plank
👀 I dont know what you mean by that
pulsar adder
Nvm I found a fix, it was just returning an error cause it was being a dor dor
But new issue, when someone votes my bot, a message isn't sent to the webhook, how do I fix this
jaunty plank
You're not using a discord webhook correct?
random sigil
hey, I'm using the python-sdk, and the autoposter isn't doing anything
restive otter
unfortunate
restive otter
Thanks for sharing them

btw, if anyone is curious of that personal problem, I just used the direct api to fix my problem 👍
fair osprey
However, I need an official response that I will apply without reply, preferably from a moderator:
Is using an undocumented but very common endpoint that is used by all top.gg clients, for a purpose that mirrors what it was created for, using documentation that is guessed by simply analyzing the requests that top.gg makes, however alerting the user that that part of the library is "abusing" an endpoint and that it is not remotely safe to use it, legal or not?

Thank you www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
ooops😅
i have a limit for translations in english with my mind
so DeepL sometimes helps me
(for example for long messages / important messages I use DeepL because I can make mistakes)
anyways sorry
restive otter
Legal? Don't know but you probably won't get sued in court for making a request to an endpoint.
Simply don't expect consistency nor you will get any support for what you will be doing.
fair osprey
Oh, i know that i'm not supposed to expect consistency or support about this endpoint but i was asking only if it was legit because i may insert this in the library
restive otter
What is even the endpoint's purpose
fair osprey
https://top.gg/api/search
You can imagine by yourself (i think)
oh sorry i was just forgetting
Thank you www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
restive otter
Doesn't the API have that endpoint already?
fair osprey
Doesn't the API have that endpoint already?
is not documented
restive otter
fair osprey
Doesn't the API have that endpoint already?
i need this endpoint for guilds
rain heart
However, I need an official response that I will apply without reply, preferably...
I gave either you or someone else an answer already
restive otter
Yeah well then you probably won't get sued for making a request to that endpoint
rain heart
a user-based endpoint is not an api endpoint, especially if not documented and shouldn't be used for libraries
yeah you wont get sued, but its still undocumented and a user facing one, essentially considered scraping
fair osprey
I gave either you or someone else an answer already
I didn't have specified some parts like "however alerting the user that that part of the library is "abusing" an endpoint and that it is not remotely safe to use it"
restive otter
Scraping is pretty different tbf
Far from being scraping
I personally wouldn't do it, if you want to go ahead I guess
rain heart
theoretically scraping is using endpoints that are:
- undocumented
- often used by user clients (such as normal site navigation)
doesnt need to be directly involved with reading the html site content
restive otter
No, scraping is more mass data gathering
That is just simulating a user's normal interaction which isn't scraping
fair osprey
theoretically scraping is using endpoints that are:
- undocumented
- often used ...
Scraping is:
$page = file_get_contents('https://top.gg/servers/123456');
and then with regex getting the informations
i may be wrong
rain heart
scraping is that too, since you're not interacting with an api endpoint thats documented
rain heart
Scraping is:
```php
$page = file_get_contents('https://top.gg/servers/123456');
...
wrong
not that only
restive otter
Then every browser is doing scraping which shouldn't be allowed 
rain heart
thats a user interaction, browser-used API endpoints
should I consider "reading top.gg's undocumented API endpoints" as selfbotting then? is essentially the same as reading official ones amirite
restive otter
Well either way, to answer your question @fair osprey; Do what you want, you won't get sued for doing a request to an endpoint and providing it to others.
rain heart
I didn't have specified some parts like "*however alerting the user that that pa...
keeping it short:
if you wanna do that on a non-official library, cant stop you nor wont the devs unless using that endpoint is actively causing issues to the site
if you plan this to be part of the official library, likely wont be approved to be in it then as it is an undocumented endpoint that is not meant for bot usage
restive otter
Just don't expect it to become the official PHP library
rain heart
the docs still refer to a newer version ||for probably the past 2-3 years now|| of the API, which might contain that endpoint of not, I dont develop the api endpoints
restive otter
I'd rather make it a suggestion and wait for it to be official, though it will take ages to become implemented so yeh
fair osprey
Perfect, thanks you guys for the answers, I'll update the library removing this funcionality and i'll make an extension for this which won't be official
:D
anyways
PLEASE check out my pr because I've been working on it a lot

Also not sure what the `.idea` folder is doing there
IntelliJ ig
restive otter
PhpStorm yeah
Though that should not be pushed in a GitHub repository
Sometimes it should be, but those files are pretty much irrelevant and have no point on being pushed
fair osprey
Though that should not be pushed in a GitHub repository
I found it and like a good developer I didn't touch it 
restive otter
Yeah, you can remove that 
fair osprey
Yeah, you can remove that <:kek:594643029994897408>
Too much work 
restive otter
Especially because that will be different for every user that is using PhpStorm

I appreciate your time and effort but this is probably better off as a third-party library. There have been no changes to our API that would justify pushing out breaking changes.
I still think your work would be useful as an alternative to this one though so people have the option. Feel free to offer it as a third-party sdk! 🙏
F for the caching system
restive otter
Yeah it's pretty much understandable
fair osprey
Yeah it's pretty much understandable
Me when i see not-object oriented libraries: 
restive otter
I mean, you can always try to make it more popular - eventually make a PR to get a link on the current PHP library page on the documentation website
fair osprey
true but now i need to cry with DeepL

i should wait an opinion from they

We don't promote any third-party SDKs in our official documentation. You are free to use "Top.gg" and Top.gg-related tags on your GitHub repository though as long as you also include a clear disclaimer at the top of your readme file and documentation homepage saying your SDK is an unofficial one.
restive otter
Yeah then try to make your library to have a better SEO when searching for "Top.gg php library"
Can have your own documentation site hosted on GitHub pages as well
Because people shouldn't really use that outdated library
I cannot understand how can I authorize to use the Api
Nor it should be encouraged for people to use it
restive otter
I cannot understand how can I authorize to use the Api
Add an authorization header to the requests you make with the token you got from your bot's page on top.gg at Bot Page > Edit > Webhooks
Where can I add this header? In my code?
Yes
Alright
Ty
pulsar adder
You're not using a discord webhook correct?
No
Well, yes and no.
Yes because my bot requires a webhook request to be made to send the message, and no because it's a custom url that I'm using in top.gg
