topgg-api

[ruby yarrow]

Also is there a way to test it without waiting 12 hours to vote?

[ornate abyss]

hmm i deleted and reinstalled dblpy and still keeps saying 0.1.6

[hot portal]

Property 'webhook' does not exist on type 'DBLAPI'.

45 this.dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {

it simply doesnt work 😭 @arctic arch

[arctic arch]

typescript huh?

are you sure you actually have the latest version in your project

[hot portal]

yeah my whole structure is like that.

[ornate abyss]

ah had to restart my bot if anyone was curious if i fixed it :)

[hot portal]

yes 2.3.0

[arctic arch]

because that sounds like there is no webhooks on the version you are in at all

[hot portal]

im looking at the typings : DBLWebhook class on line 26. ill

[arctic arch]

maybe thats typescript's way to say its undefined

make sure you have specified the port or server in the options

[hot portal]

i event tried over riding the undefined.

yeah i did that.

[arctic arch]

just

I need to be sure

post version from node_modules/dblapi.js/package.json

[hot portal]

you guys arent exporting DBLWebhook

[spiral steeple]

uh

https://oliy.is-just-a.dev/iyzftw_633.png

[ornate abyss]

get_bot_upvotes() returns this <coroutine object Client.get_bot_upvotes at 0x09383300> ?

[arctic arch]

dependencies be empty
how does it still have snekfetch

[hot portal]

yeah it didnt bring that issue any more.

line 28 i init the dblapi. line 55 is excuting the hooks

[ornate abyss]

not like this?

[sullen nymph]

@ruby yarrow if on_dbl_test works, on_dbl_vote does too

Everything dblpy Client has is async

so await it @ornate abyss

[ornate abyss]

huh

oh i see thx

[sullen nymph]

[wanton gust]

[sudden flare]

is there any way to force-update the cache of votes?

when I check if a user has voted or not, its delayed to give a positive response

[plain timber]

@sudden flare if you want instant updates then you need to use webhooks

[sudden flare]

oh ok, thank you

[restive otter]

Someone mind explaining how I would get votes in python?

Users can currently vote every 24 hours for each bot. The /votes endpoint for your bot (the one you use via getVotes) only indexes the last 1000 votes. Please implement the webhook instead if you plan to process over 1000 votes.

Makes no sense because https://discordbots.org/bot/526202417570643968/votes doesn't return votes...

[sullen nymph]

/votes returns votes for the past 12 hrs

[plain timber]

@restive otter you need /api/

[restive otter]

https://discordbots.org/bot/526202417570643968/api/votes still doesn't work

[plain timber]

...

/api/bots/id/votes

[restive otter]

ah

[plain timber]

Did u read the docs

[restive otter]

that was in the docs/

[plain timber]

Yes

[restive otter]

well how was I suppose to connect https://discordbots.org/api/docs#reference with what I was doing.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[restive otter]

reas

mk

Yup

I will reas

Thank you.

[ornate abyss]

:spam:

[full socket]

@grand plaza no racial slurs dude

[restive otter]

why doesn't it work : dbl.webhook.on('vote', async vote => {

[chrome canyon]

You gotta be a bit more specific

Because so far it works

[restive otter]

Nothing happens when I press the Test button or the user votes

[chrome canyon]

Well what's the rest of the code

[restive otter]

dbl.webhook.on('vote', async vote => {
    console.log('Voted')
});

const DBL = require('dblapi.js');
const dbl = new DBL(token, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });

[clever rock]

but is the port open

port must be open

closed port = no go

[restive otter]

How to open it on hosting?

[clever rock]

depends on firewall you use

I personally use ufw

but go google how to find out what fiirewall you use or if there is one

[outer carbon]

Hello

bruh

[opaque pike]

Is it normal that with

dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
    console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
});

I've this error ?

[runic grove]

no

[opaque pike]

Do you understand why ?

dbl is well defined...

[rugged scroll]

Hi,

i have a json file with some data.

How can i embed specific fields to a reply message?

[runic grove]

is webhook set up

[opaque pike]

I don't think... how do we do ?

[plain timber]

@opaque pike you didnt put the webhook settings on the new dbl line

look at the example

[opaque pike]

those?

[plain timber]

yes

its in the example code

just set webhookPort and webhookAuth

[opaque pike]

Ok thank you

[short flint]

How do I use webhooks?

[patent mantle]

Is there an alternative for msg.reply so that it won't mention the user who sent the specific command?

[sullen nymph]

1. #development
2. msg.channel.send

[short flint]

How do I use webhooks?

[patent mantle]

Ohh thanks

[opaque pike]

@short flint https://discordbots.org/api/docs

[short flint]

but I did not understand how to do it

[restive tapir]

Oof

[sullen nymph]

Probably just cache

[restive tapir]

i have to provide shard id :3

[opaque pike]

Sorry, just for options.webhookPort, where I can find it ? And for options.webhookAuth I don't undestand what string it talk about...

[sullen nymph]

options param in dblapi.js client

which is a map (JSON, I don't remember what it is in js)

[runic grove]

object?

[sullen nymph]

You specify the port yourself and webhookAuth is the text you set in Authorization field on your bot's Edit page

[opaque pike]

but what url I put here ?

[restive tapir]

Hello, i posted my server count to the API which is 2925 and also with shard ids, and the website still showing only 1013.
The code i'm using is dbl.postStats(await client.fetchGuildSize(), client.shard.ids[0], client.shard.count);
The value of those 3 params are in screenshot. Also the return from dbl API is {}
Perhaps it's a bug :3 If it isn't please tell me where the mistake is.

[sullen nymph]

How many guilds overall?

[restive tapir]

2925

[sullen nymph]

What's your bot?

[restive tapir]

@restive otter

[sullen nymph]

Huh

[restive tapir]

Did you mean the bot link?

[sullen nymph]

Nah, that's fine

My cache was showing 5k guilds but yeah, I don't see what causes that

[restive tapir]

Does it show 5k on your browser?

[sullen nymph]

Only because of cache /shrug

incognito shows 1013

[restive tapir]

What shall i do now?

[sullen nymph]

Not quite sure ngl

[opaque pike]

For the URL what I am supposed to put ?

[restive tapir]

Can you forward regarding this bug(?) to the developer?

[sullen nymph]

I'm not quite sure what shardId param is used for

[restive tapir]

It said it's the id of the shard and that's what i provide there in second param.

[plain timber]

The shardid is so you only send the server count for the current shard

And it'll add them all up

And if you want to report a bug do it on the GitHub

[sullen nymph]

https://discordbots.org/api/bots/BOTID/stats for your bot returns {"server_count":5850,"shards":[null,2925,2925],"shard_count":3}

[restive tapir]

Oops

I'm making sure that it's a bug or not

[sullen nymph]

You're fine since your question is related to dblapi.js

[restive tapir]

oh, i see now

[opaque pike]

thank you

[restive tapir]

It adds up
i will try to change the code and see the results

[sullen nymph]

1978 guild count after updating

[restive otter]

@arctic arch

motterfucker

wtf @restive otter

[opaque pike]

it's just a hater

[arctic arch]

ok

[restive tapir]

Got it working. Thank you

[hexed glade]

What can I use for webhooks with java. I feel that it is not possible with the java library.

[distant trellis]

Of course it is: https://github.com/MinnDevelopment/discord-webhooks (https://github.com/DV8FromTheWorld/JDA/wiki/9)-Webhooks)
Examples: https://www.programcreek.com/java-api-examples/index.php?api=net.dv8tion.jda.core.entities.Webhook

Docs: https://ci.dv8tion.net/job/JDA/javadoc/index.html?net/dv8tion/jda/webhook/package-summary.html

[hexed glade]

Wow ty 😃

[distant trellis]

I'd pay most attention to the first link, which is most likely what you'd use. Example 5 and 7 from the examples link might give you a better understanding as well

[hexed glade]

Okay ty

[plain timber]

@distant trellis @hexed glade those seem to be links for discord webhooks, which are not related to DBL webhooks

[distant trellis]

Oh right, we're in the api channel

[hexed glade]

I need to create a listener to the dbl webhook right?

[distant trellis]

I think that's all explained in here, right?: https://github.com/DiscordBotList/DBL-Java-Library

It has examples and all

[plain timber]

If you want to use DBL webhooks in java you will probably need to run your own webserver using something like http://sparkjava.com

And accept the post request from dbl

[hexed glade]

Oh yeah

It remembers something

Perfect @plain timber

[plain timber]

https://discordbots.org/api/docs#webhooks has some info

Yw

[hexed glade]

Is it normal that I have a very long delay?

With java: 1-3min
With nodejs: 1s

And with java, I get "null" body

[narrow geyser]

That isn't normal

[restive otter]

I'm updating server counter every 30 mins but my bot is shown as offline since the beginning of getting verified. what should I do?

[restive otter]

If any discord.py dev's can help with getting things to happen when an event happens, please DM me.
Current Code

import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

import asyncio
import logging


class DiscordBotsOrgAPI(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the discordbots.org API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = 'token' # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.Client(self.bot, self.token, webhook_path='/dblwebhook', webhook_auth='password', webhook_port=5000)
        self.updating = self.bot.loop.create_task(self.update_stats())

    async def update_stats(self):
        """This function runs every 30 minutes to automatically update your server count"""
        while not self.bot.is_closed():
            logger.info('Attempting to post server count')
            try:
                await self.dblpy.post_guild_count()
                logger.info('Posted server count ({})'.format(self.dblpy.guild_count()))
            except Exception as e:
                logger.exception('Failed to post server count\n{}: {}'.format(type(e).__name__, e))
            await asyncio.sleep(1800)

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        print(data)

def setup(bot):
    global logger
    logger = logging.getLogger('bot')
    bot.add_cog(DiscordBotsOrgAPI(bot))

[sullen nymph]

Are you sure the webhook is actually accepting requests?

test button calls on_dbl_test
vote button calls on_dbl_vote

[restive otter]

@sullen nymph how can I test if the webhook is accepting requests?

Really new to webhooks and stuff...sorry

[sullen nymph]

Make sure your IP is right and your port is open and forwarded. Test button on your bot's Edit page

[restive otter]

allright

Is there a non webhook way to do this?

[sullen nymph]

And, just in case, http://your_ip:your_port/your_webhook_path
Non-webhook? get_user_vote but includes ratelimits and delays

[restive otter]

Question, this bit of code would work right?

import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

import asyncio
import logging


class DiscordBotsOrgAPI(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the discordbots.org API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = 'dbl_token' # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.Client(self.bot, self.token)
        #self.updating = self.bot.loop.create_task(self.update_stats())

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        logger.info('Received an upvote')
        print(data)


def setup(bot):
    global logger
    logger = logging.getLogger('bot')
    bot.add_cog(DiscordBotsOrgAPI(bot))

For just receving votes, forget about posting server count.

[sullen nymph]

Looks good, yep

[restive otter]

Allright Thanks!

So the only downside to this method is that the upvotes will be delayed by around 1-5 minutes right?

[sullen nymph]

Yeah and ratelimits if you implement it in a command

[restive otter]

alright thanks

[restive otter]

Code

import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio



class DiscordBotsOrgAPI(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the discordbots.org API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = 'token' # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.Client(self.bot, self.token)
        #self.updating = self.bot.loop.create_task(self.update_stats())

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        print(data)


def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(DiscordBotsOrgAPI(bot))

I've doubled checked that the token works but nothing is getting printed.

[worn quail]

Did you vote

[restive otter]

yea

[plain timber]

@restive otter did u set the webhook settings in the bot edit page?

[restive otter]

Why do we need a webhook for

import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio



class DiscordBotsOrgAPI(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the discordbots.org API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = 'token' # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.Client(self.bot, self.token)
        #self.updating = self.bot.loop.create_task(self.update_stats())

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        print(data)


def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(DiscordBotsOrgAPI(bot))

[sullen nymph]

You're not using the webhook but adding an event for it

[restive otter]

So what do I set the webhook to?

so confused

[sullen nymph]

The example on github repo should help.
Specify at least webhook_port, the rest of webhook stuff will be set by default

[restive otter]

So I use this code

import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

import asyncio
import logging


class DiscordBotsOrgAPI(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the discordbots.org API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = 'token' # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.Client(self.bot, self.token, webhook_path='/dblwebhook', webhook_auth='password', webhook_port=5000)
        self.updating = self.bot.loop.create_task(self.update_stats())

    async def update_stats(self):
        """This function runs every 30 minutes to automatically update your server count"""
        while not self.bot.is_closed():
            logger.info('Attempting to post server count')
            try:
                await self.dblpy.post_guild_count()
                logger.info('Posted server count ({})'.format(self.dblpy.guild_count()))
            except Exception as e:
                logger.exception('Failed to post server count\n{}: {}'.format(type(e).__name__, e))
            await asyncio.sleep(1800)

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        print(data)

def setup(bot):
    global logger
    logger = logging.getLogger('bot')
    bot.add_cog(DiscordBotsOrgAPI(bot))

And then for the webhook on dbl I put mypublicip:5000/dblwehook?

[sullen nymph]

http://ip:port/path

[restive otter]

is any port forwarding require on the router side of things or no?

[sullen nymph]

Yep

[restive otter]

k

[opaque pike]

Is it normal that send in the console...

that

[sullen nymph]

Replace 0.0.0.0 with your IPv4 address

[opaque pike]

But where I replace ?

[sullen nymph]

When putting your webhook URL in on the website

[opaque pike]

But it's already done...

[short flint]

How do I get authorization to use webhooks?

[opaque pike]

It's you who must set the permission by editing your bot at the bottom

[restive otter]

😝

😂

I'm updating server counter every 30 mins but my bot is shown as offline since the beginning of getting verified. what should I do?

[sullen nymph]

Is its status "???"

[restive otter]

Yes

@sullen nymph

[sullen nymph]

That means it was kicked from here

[restive otter]

Can you explain because it hasn't

Off the site

It's been up on the site since it's verification

[narrow zenith]

you need to have it be reinvited @restive otter

[restive otter]

As in register for verification again?

@restive otter are you sure that's the official dblpy library?

Delay how long your bot sends to dbl

Its not

@restive otter pip install dblpy

[restive otter]

Did that while back.

It was updating all of yesterday fine.

[plain timber]

@restive otter 403 means wrong token

[restive otter]

there;s a 403 in there?

isn't it a ratelimit error

[plain timber]

Oh weird I thought it said 403

How often are you sending it 🤔

[sullen nymph]

401 is wrong token

[chrome canyon]

@restive otter 429 is rate limit

[restive otter]

no duh

the error says you've been ratelimited

😃

[chrome canyon]

Then there's no 403

Lol

Rate limit is 429

[arctic arch]

why are you talking about response codes when there are none

[obsidian tide]

I'm new to dbl api.

I want to learn how to make it instantly run an action after someone votes

[humble bison]

use the webhooks

[obsidian tide]

What webhook though?

[humble bison]

read the docs

[obsidian tide]

I am

How do u get a webhook?

[humble bison]

you set it up

[obsidian tide]

How? I want to know how to

[humble bison]

it's just a http server, set one up locally and set dbl to post to it on votes, then get the data and do stuff

[obsidian tide]

Just make a webhook from a channel?

[humble bison]

no not a discord webhook

read the docs fml

https://discordbots.org/api/docs#webhooks

[plain timber]

@obsidian tide https://discordbots.org/api/docs#jslib

dblapi.js can handle it for you

but it has nothing to do with discord webhooks

[obsidian tide]

I installed the npm already

K thx @humble bison I'll try that

How do u create a webhook?

[dense basalt]

Your server -> server settings -> webhook -> create webhook

[humble bison]

that's a discord webhook

they don't work with dbl's api

[dense basalt]

They do, you can set up a Discord webhook and link it to DBL

[obsidian tide]

But how?

Wat

[spiral steeple]

wot

[obsidian tide]

How?

[spiral steeple]

no you cant

[dense basalt]

You would have to create some other stuff yourself

But you can

@obsidian tide look at the docs https://discordbots.org/api/docs#jslib

please

it has code

[flint lava]

Hello, I’m having trouble with the api. I thought to get actual help from a member of staff because I have asked multiple times in the support channel and every time it didn’t work.

The problem is that the vote bit doesn’t seem to work, i took the code off the api website and everything but the vote bit works. Please help!

Here’s my code:

  console.log('Server count has been sent to Discord Bot List!');
  });

dbl.on('error', e => {
 console.log(`Oops! ${e}`);
});

dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
  console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
}); 
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
  let voteembed = new Discord.RichEmbed()
    .setColor(0x0000FF)
    .setThumbnail("https://cdn.discordapp.com/avatars/560942447488794628/57a6cc87eafda490610284c6982a8918.png?size=2048")
    .setTitle(`New Vote`)
    .setDescription(`${vote.user.username} has just voted! Thanks!`)
    .setTimestamp()
    votechannel.send(voteembed);
  console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted for Cryptonox!`)
});

The webhook and the server count works

[plain timber]

@flint lava did you set the webhook settings in your bot page?

have you tested it with postman?

[flint lava]

Ive got this: http://ip:PORT/dblwebhook

As the webhook setting

@plain timber

[plain timber]

k, try doing the post request in postman

https://getpostman.com

?

[flint lava]

How do I do the request?

On postman

[plain timber]

make a POST to the url

and set the json body like DBL would send

https://b1nzy-pinged.me/NrW5.png

{
    "bot": "12345",
    "user": "509456861196713985",
    "type": "test",
    "isWeekend": "true"
}```

and set the Authorization header to your webhookAuth

[flint lava]

Right I’ve just logged in

Where do I go?

[plain timber]

create a request

[flint lava]

Where’s that?

Where do I create a request?

[plain timber]

uh what

what do you see?

[flint lava]

My workspaces

[plain timber]

open a new tab

[flint lava]

Ok

Done

[plain timber]

fill it out like i showed

[restive otter]

hmm

[trim venture]

Why I can't post my guild/shard count?

[plain timber]

@trim venture wrong token

[trim venture]

I regenerated it, still not works.

[sullen nymph]

dblpy version?

[trim venture]

0.3.1

Using with discord.py 1.2.3

[sullen nymph]

I can see two things that could be causing that:

1. The dblpy version of yours that is detectdd by Python isn't 0.3.1
2. The bot your code is running on isn't on DBL
3. I believe I raise 401 when it's invalid token

[trim venture]

The bot is on dbl

@short bronze

[sullen nymph]

Output dbl.__version__ to make sure it's up to date

It must be sending the request before bot gets ready

[trim venture]

got this

[sullen nymph]

Huh

[trim venture]

Wait!! Heroku posted it!

[sullen nymph]

Great news at least

[trim venture]

Yeah, but my mac can't post it somehow 🤷

And one more question.
I have 1 shard.
I thought that the post_guild_count will post it.

How can I post the shard count?

[sullen nymph]

post_guild_count(shard_amount: int, whatever_shard_you_post_from: int)

[trim venture]

ok, thx 😁

[sullen nymph]

[gusty gyro]

I need a little help adding the API. Would I make a new folder in my main directory? Or add it to the init script or bot file?

[sullen nymph]

Elaborate please

[gusty gyro]

I don't know where the this goes. const Discord = require("discord.js"); const client = new Discord.Client(); const DBL = require("dblapi.js"); const dbl = new DBL('Your discordbots.org token', client); // Optional events dbl.on('posted', () => { console.log('Server count posted!'); }) dbl.on('error', e => { console.log(`Oops! ${e}`); })

[runic grove]

you dont just paste it like that

its an example code

[gusty gyro]

I figured I would need to add the token

But what else is needed?

[plain timber]

You need to know how it works

Don't just paste it in

And why is that all one line

[fading lynx]

❌

[vagrant barn]

stupid question but still learning.
setting up the api webhook for voting, is the URL suppose to point to where the bot is hosted?

[fathom eagle]

Fuck that username is a throwback

[plain timber]

@vagrant barn yes, if the webhook path is /dblwebhook (default for dblapi.js) then the url is normally http://IP:PORT/dblwebhook

[vagrant barn]

awesome, thanks

[low prawn]

@fathom eagle @papa#0001 dumb username

[fathom eagle]

I agree with you

ayy that's better

[restive otter]

Is the bot discord id the bot's discord id?

[vernal coral]

yes, what else

[worn quail]

[dense basalt]

[gusty gyro]

my bot was denied for api time??? ``` await this.client.user.setStatus("online");

const statusArray = [
  (client) => client.user.setActivity(`${this.client.guilds.size} servers | ?help`, { type: "WATCHING" }),
  (client) => client.user.setActivity(`${this.client.channels.size} channels | ?help`, { type: "WATCHING" }),
  (client) => client.user.setActivity(`${this.client.users.size} users | ?help`, { type: "WATCHING" })
];

var pick = 0;
setInterval(() => {
  statusArray[pick](this.client);
  pick += 1;
  if (pick === 3) pick = 0;
}, 40000);```

[plain timber]

@gusty gyro read the channel topic

[gusty gyro]

i know as im wondering why its declined if it isnt abuse???

5\60

[runic grove]

read the channel topic lol

[gusty gyro]

im aware

i got this info from staff here. sounds like they need to read the api for denying bots that arent abusing the limit????

[shut ibex]

This channel is for dbl api

Not discord api

[gusty gyro]

how do u get support here?

trying to speak with staff

only reason i commented here

[plain timber]

Either DM the mod who declined it or ping them in #general

[restive otter]

how to solve this error http://prntscr.com/oincjp

[sullen nymph]

Not paste a Discord webhook link

Create a webserver that will send a message through Discord webhook on request and make DBL send request to your webserver

[restive otter]

dblapi.js failing to send stats

wait nvm

i had to update

[craggy grove]

How can I check if someone has voted for my bot in the last 12 hours? I’ve tried googling and such but I can’t really find much. I know checking who voted in the last 24 hours is documented, but what about 12?

[shut ibex]

use webhooks

[full socket]

I guess the only way this is possible is to use webhooks and store the time users voted yourself

[shut ibex]

Store User Vote and time in DB and check with the bot if its greater than or less than 12 hours

[craggy grove]

I see

Thanks!

[plain timber]

@craggy grove the docs are wrong, everything that says 24 hours is actually 12 hours

[craggy grove]

Are you serious lmao

Thank you so much

[plain timber]

yw

and yeah theyre outdated cuz u used to be able to vote every 12 hrs

and ig nobody updated them

[spiral steeple]

The docs need some serious updates

[daring cove]

Which doc

Py, js....

[plain timber]

the dbl docs

on the site

[slate zealot]

Hi

[plain scaffold]

Hai

[ruby yarrow]

Need some help understanding how to setup using dbl

Using the python example what do I define as "bot"?

[worn quail]

Your client

Eg

discord.Client

[ruby yarrow]

So just discord.client() no bot tokens?

[worn quail]

I dont think the bot token by itself will work

[ruby yarrow]

"Client object has no attribute add cog"

[worn quail]

What version are you using

For discord

[ruby yarrow]

1.0.1

And api is 0.3.1

Hmm actually
discord==1.0.1
Discord.py==1.2.3

[restive otter]

this is for help with the discord api

discord.py help can be found in the discord.py support server

[restive otter]

oh hi

[ruby yarrow]

No this is for this api

[restive otter]

sorry i know a cool guy named anish in my school

[ruby yarrow]

@restive otter just trying to set up this api, the docs don't help much

[sullen nymph]

For dblpy Client, there's no add_cog.
For discord.py commands.Bot, then we're talking.

[ruby yarrow]

I'm using the example in the docs

[sullen nymph]

And the example uses commands.Bot

[ruby yarrow]

https://discordbots.org/api/docs#pylib

Setup(bot)
Bot.add_cog

[sullen nymph]

Yes

I'm literally saying "That example discord.py commands.Bot, not discord.Client"

[ruby yarrow]

I don't follow

For the bot variable then?

[sullen nymph]

your bot variable is supposed to be an instance of commands.Bot that discord.py provides
OR
adapt the code to discord.py Client

[ruby yarrow]

So I run
setup(my bot instance)

[sullen nymph]

If you use cogs

[ruby yarrow]

I don't have experience with cogs but that's how the example is

So I can just rewrite the example without cogs? With dbl.client(bot, token) ?

[sullen nymph]

Yes, where bot would be your discord.py Client

[ruby yarrow]

Hmm let me try

Still stuck on this

Just trying to do anything with dbl.py client

How do I set it up using the python example? https://discordbots.org/api/docs#pylib

[wheat elk]

Guys, I don't know how to use that dbl webhooks

I'm hosting the bot on glitch, by the way

[narrow zenith]

https://discordbots.org/api/docs#jslib

[tropic hill]

does the online status get pushed when the bot logs in or when the server count is pushed

[narrow geyser]

When your bot logs on (with caching)

[bronze arch]

how would I be able to test another webhook, so that my current webhook isn't impacted? I can't seem to actually change it without saving it, which would affect my current bot

[sullen nymph]

@bronze arch you could try sending a request to it yourself

[timber orbit]

does anyone have any resources to get started with the voting webhooks using JS besides the official API page? I tried to make a webserver and link the webhook to that but when i use Postman to test it I get a 400 error

[clever rock]

Unfortunately thats only the example for JS, although there is an unofficial one that is as simple as download, configure and run @timber orbit

[timber orbit]

Alright, I’ll give that a look, thank you

[ruby yarrow]

Is there an example for python?

[chilly sundial]

wtf https://gyazo.com/4887c42424236b994d5bdb10463c6517

it's ok :>

[sudden dagger]

how do i send the bot token in the POST?

it returns unauthorized currently because i haven't given it the bot's auth

and so, how do i do that

[runic grove]

you need to send it in an Authorization header iirc

[sudden dagger]

uh what

[sullen nymph]

https://discordbots.org/api/docs#reference

[sudden dagger]

my bigger problem is i have no idea how to send headers

and i can't copy the whole damn token

[runic grove]

what are you using for the request

as in what library

[sudden dagger]

coro-http integrated in luvit(?)

[runic grove]

look up the documentation of the library on how to send headers

[sudden dagger]

smart choice

can't find the documentation for some reason

noice

[chilly sundial]

huh plz help

[sudden dagger]

hUh

{"error":"Unauthorized"}

[chilly sundial]

Huhuhuh

[chilly sundial]

wtf

[chilly sundial]

._.

[dense basalt]

Are you reading

[worn quail]

can you read the tiny thing after it?

You arent authorized to use whatever you are doingm

If its dblapi it's the wrong token

Idk how yall getting 401s but I'm fine

[chilly sundial]

The token isn't wrong ._.

[sullen nymph]

DBL says yes it is wrong

[chilly sundial]

There is nothing after it ._.

Oof :c

[sullen nymph]

Re-copy, make sure you don't remove/add anything to the token

[chilly sundial]

The token had changed, it's ok :>

thx :D

[lethal fox]

Hey. I have a question. How can I make my bot send message when someone votes for it?

[vestal relic]

Hey, so I'm trying to get the webhook thing working, but whenever I send a test, nothing happens

@lethal fox you need to configure the webhook

Anyways, as for my issue

https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/server.js

Here's the code

[sullen nymph]

Make sure port is open and forwarded

[vestal relic]

The port is good, since I host a website here

[sullen nymph]

Also vote isn't equal to test

[vestal relic]

yes

i know that

  if (vote.type == 'test')
    return console.log('test successful')
  let message;

  try {
    let fetchedUser = client.users.fetch(vote.user);
    message = `${fetchedUser.tag} just upvoted!`;
  } catch(e) {
    message = `${vote.user} upvoted`
  }
  client.channels.get(config.logging).send(message);
  console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`);
});

Notice where it checks the vote type

[pallid slate]

js?

[vestal relic]

yes

[sullen nymph]

Oh cool dblapi.js sends both under the same event

[vestal relic]

Its most likely something wrong with my code

cause the normal website is fine

[sullen nymph]

Double check your URL ig

everything else looks fine

[vestal relic]

Hm, I guess the error could be two things

1. I redeclair the dbl thing

when I already declaired it before in client

2. The ready event does indeed get fired

but it returns a weird URL, hold on

Webhook running at http://0.0.0.0:0/dblwebhook

https://yamamura-bot.tk/dblwebhook The link that it should be in gives a 404 instead of something else

@sullen nymph
https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/server.js#L78
https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/yamamura.js#L62

does it matter that I'm calling DBL twice?

If it is, I could probably merge the two files

[sullen nymph]

Worth a try

[lethal fox]

I have a question. To update a server's number I need to use api right?

[sullen nymph]

On the website yes

[lethal fox]

Do I need to do more with API than copying it to my code?

[sullen nymph]

Get your bot approved

[lethal fox]

And that's all, right?

Can I modify it to check if someone voted on bot?

[sullen nymph]

Sure, dblapi.js and dblpy provide a webhook, not too sure about other libs

[vestal relic]

Welp, that didn't work

https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/yamamura.js

[restive otter]

I tried to send a message to the voted user but it doesn't work.

[vestal relic]

I think we're having the same problem

can I see your code?

[restive otter]

My code:

dbl.webhook.on("vote", vote => { 

console.log('User with ID ' + vote.user + ' voted!'); 

const user = client.users.get(vote.user); // This will get the User Object from the Client#users Collection

 if(user) { // This checks if the Bot knows who the User is. 

user.send('Thank you for voting!'); // DM the User "Thank you for voting!"

 } });

[spiral steeple]

Is it all on one line or something?

[restive otter]

No It is weird when I copy it down

Her

My code:

dbl.webhook.on("vote", vote => { 

console.log('User with ID ' + vote.user + ' voted!'); 

const user = client.users.get(vote.user); // This will get the User Object from the Client#users Collection

 if(user) { // This checks if the Bot knows who the User is. 

user.send('Thank you for voting!'); // DM the User "Thank you for voting!"

 } });

Can anyone help me with this?

I tried to send a message to the voted user but it doesn't work.

[vestal relic]

Yes, we saw your first message

Have you seen if the webhook works in the first place?

[restive otter]

It works

[vestal relic]

Do you get "User with ID blabla voted!"

og

oh*

maybe that user disabled DMs

[restive otter]

But I didn't get the logs

[vestal relic]

then the webhook in itself doesn't work

[restive otter]

How could I fix that

[vestal relic]

send us your entire code

[restive otter]

I am getting my code up on computer

const DBL = require('dblapi.js');

const dbl = new DBL('api key', {webhookPort: 5001, webhookAuth: 'password', webhookPath: '/absolutezero'}, client);

dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
    console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
});

dbl.webhook.on("vote", vote => {
    console.log('User with ID ' + vote.user + ' voted!');

    const user = client.users.get(vote.user); // This will get the User Object from the Client#users Collection 

 if(vote){// This checks if the Bot knows who the User is. 
    user.send('Thank you for voting!'); // DM the User "Thank you for voting!" 
   } });

  dbl.on('posted', () => {
  console.log('Server count posted!');
});
dbl.on('error', e => {
  console.log(`Oops! ${e}`);
});

here

[vestal relic]

is the ready event correct?

[restive otter]

I think so

[vestal relic]

What does it say?

[restive otter]

Webhook running at http://0.0.0.0:5001/absolutezero

[spiral steeple]

that's good

so go to https://discordbots.org/bot/583835501744881664/edit (I assume that's the bot you're trying to set it up for)

scroll all the way down, put that in and replace 0.0.0.0 with your server's ip and make up an authorization key

[restive otter]

Oh ok

[vestal relic]

@spiral steeple Do you think you can help me with my issue?

https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/yamamura.js#L68

[DiscordBots.org] Webhook running at http://0.0.0.0:3000/dblwebhook

Yet, when I attempt to send the test webhook, it does not run

Here are my listeners
https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/events/dbl/hookready.js

https://gitlab.com/Samplasion/yamamura-discord-bot/blob/master/events/dbl/vote.js

[spiral steeple]

@vestal relic have the correct ip?

[vestal relic]

Yeah, I think I found the error

1|Yamamura | GET /dblwebhook 404 7.123 ms - 5556

The webhook URL itself works

[spiral steeple]

Did you set the authorization?

[vestal relic]

but > 404

yeah

[spiral steeple]

It's the same as your config.DBLPass

[vestal relic]

this.dbl = new DBL(config.DBLtoken, { webhookPort: this.express.get('port'), webhookAuth: config.DBLPass, webhookServer: this.server, statsInterval: 7200000 }, this);

yeah, it is

[spiral steeple]

404 is not found

is the port open?

[vestal relic]

Yeah, the website itself works

[runic grove]

if the port wasnt open the request probably wouldnt go through

[spiral steeple]

true

you're running a website on the same port?

[vestal relic]

Yes

[spiral steeple]

Im not sure

[vestal relic]

Hm, maybe its because of the 404 thing I set up?

  //The 404 Route (ALWAYS keep this as the last route)
  app.get('*', function(req, res) {
    res.status(404).render('pages/404')
  });```

[spiral steeple]

I dont use express

[vestal relic]

What do you use then?

[spiral steeple]

I dont make websites

[vestal relic]

oh

[runic grove]

try commenting it out?

[spiral steeple]

I set up servers with node http(s) and fastify

[vestal relic]

Still get a 404

without any DiscordBots.org message

[spiral steeple]

oh

the dbl webhook is post requests

wait

I have big confusion

you wouldnt be able to do a GET on it anyways, would you?

[sullen nymph]

It should return 405 automatically if you made it listen to GET requests

[vestal relic]

I have no idea what is going on anymore

[spiral steeple]

dbl sends a POST request to your webhook

with the user and some other stuff

[vestal relic]

Hm

1|Yamamura | GET /dblwebhook 404 2.119 ms - 149

The test webhook just sends a get request

not a post

I'm logging this using morgan

[arctic arch]

why are you getting get requests

[vestal relic]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sullen nymph]

I've been getting them too for no apparent reason

[arctic arch]

anyway I don't think morgan would log the post request

[vestal relic]

Hm, can someone try sending a POST request to my website?

lets see if its the logger's fault or if its truely sending a GET request

Per rule 4, I can't link to the site

so DM me for a link I guess

[sullen nymph]

You linked it earlier

[vestal relic]

oh, I did?

oops

1|Yamamura | POST / 404 3.900 ms - 140

I did it using https://www.codepunker.com/tools/http-requests

[arctic arch]

I mean the post request to the webhook

[vestal relic]

oh

[arctic arch]

it wouldn't get to express since the library takes it

[sullen nymph]

Your dblwebhook path returned 403 for me 👀

[arctic arch]

seems to be working

since you didn't have a valid authorization

[restive otter]

What will happen if I test my webhooks?

[sullen nymph]

A test request will be sent to your webhook URL that you specify on your bot's Edit page

[restive otter]

Oh ok

But I didn't get the request. Will in be in the console?

[vestal relic]

Hm, I don't get it either

[arctic arch]

make sure to save then test

[vestal relic]

ok

oh hey, it finally worked. I was just dumb all along

I thought test applied for what was currently in the fields, not what was in the DB

thank you so much for helping me Furuhashi, Tonkku and Tarpergon

[oblique crater]

[discord.js]
So, I am trying to make my bot PM the owner of the server upon joining, but how would I get the owner of the server

[sullen nymph]

https://shivaco.is-inside.me/hkU5qcpi.png

[oblique crater]

did not see the ... at the top

I apologize

[fast panther]

For webhooks, can I use a service like IFTTT or would I have to set up a web server and run it through that? Or is there something built into the dblapi that makes this easy? I’m a little inexperienced with webhooks so I do apologize

[vestal relic]

Do you have a bot already?

[fast panther]

Yes

[vestal relic]

why not set it up there?

[fast panther]

My bot is running on my raspberry pi, wouldn’t I need to set up a web server or something on it though?

I guess what I’m asking is I’m confused on what to use for a url

[fast panther]

Would I use the bot’s site url discordbots.org/bot/ID or something

Or would I use express? I feel like there’s a better option than that though

[fast panther]

Nvm, I realize now that I need a web server

[restive otter]

Hi guys! Quick question, if I'm "enabling" webhook options, will I stay able to use the request method at the same time?

[runic grove]

yes

[restive otter]

perfect, thanks

[tulip thistle]

hello, I am having trouble setting up the webhook for my bot

[hot portal]

@tulip thistle what language?

[restive otter]

:blobdance:

[tulip thistle]

@hot portal javascript

discordjs

[sharp badger]

How can I display how many shards my bot is using on the discordbots.org website? (my bot is in discord.py)

[narrow geyser]

You can use the official lib? https://discordbots.org/api/docs#pylib

[hot portal]

@tulip thistle did you check out the demo? https://discordbots.org/api/docs#jslib

[tulip thistle]

mm its ok I need to work on something else at the moment

[hot portal]

const DBL = require('dblapi.js');
const dbl = new DBL(yourDBLTokenHere, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });
dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
  console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
});
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
  console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`);
});

[tulip thistle]

I did have a quick look, but thanks for that

[hot portal]

i configured my bots so much im using ts instead of js. makes development quicker and easier

[fast panther]

Alright so I have a simple web server setup, the ready message to console is all set, and I replaced 0.0.0.0 with the IP address but webhook still does not seem to be functioning. I’m not sure where the data is sent via pressing the test button so I have no idea if I’m even receiving data. Anyone got any ideas?

[fast panther]

Do I need to set up a way for it to receive post requests?

Can someone direct me toward resources of accomplishing this

[past basin]

php is ur solution

@fast panther

[fast panther]

I’ve never worked with php before

Guess I gotta go learn a new language

[jovial sorrel]

Does this check if the user ever voted in their lifetime, or if the user voted in the past 12 hours?

for the dblpy library

[sullen nymph]

12 hours

Should probably add that to docs at some point

[jovial sorrel]

Alright, thanks!

[sullen nymph]

[spiral steeple]

24 hours now*

docs are outdated asf

wait

no

[jovial sorrel]

Can't you re-vote each 12 hours though?

[spiral steeple]

Im wrong

12

lol

dont listen to me

[jovial sorrel]

:P

[rugged sierra]

can the dbl api stop erroring so much? its annoying in my error monitoring

[chrome canyon]

Use it correctly

[rugged sierra]

I'm getting 5XX Errors so

[chrome canyon]

So?

Malformed request can lead to 500 too

As the server doesn't know how to process it

[rugged sierra]

okay I'm getting 503's and you telling me its my fault?

[chrome canyon]

Yes that's how I roll

[rugged sierra]

and I'm literally doing nothing besides posting stats with the official package written by Tonkku

[chrome canyon]

Smh

[rugged sierra]

503 Service Unavailable

Use it correctly

[chrome canyon]

You said errors

Then 500 instead of 5xx

So shush

[rugged sierra]

I get 500 and 503 sometimes so shush

[chrome canyon]

[rugged sierra]

and if the request is malformed then the status code should be 400 and not 500

[chrome canyon]

Bad server setup leads to 500 quite often

I'm not accusing dbl of not checking request sanity but it happens

[rugged sierra]

what brings us back to

can the dbl api stop erroring so much?
kthx

[chrome canyon]

Answer is no kthx

[restive otter]

through api is how I get the people who voted for the bot?

[worn quail]

why tho

stop

[mystic hatch]

Ok

[worn quail]

why here anyways

[royal storm]

How do I update my server count?

[dense basalt]

Are you already sending your server count to DBL?

[royal storm]

I'm not really sure

Does this count?

  console.log('Server count posted!');
})```

[dense basalt]

Yes

Then, it should update automatically

irrc

[royal storm]

Oh, what is this btw?

    console.log(stats) // {"server_count":2,"shards":[]}
});```

[sullen nymph]

Stats of a bot that you specify in the function params

The stats need to be posted by owner of that bot

[royal storm]

Alright, thanks!

[vague jolt]

client.on('klasaReady', () => {
  client.user.setPresence({ activity: { name: 'for giveaways', type: "WATCHING" }});
  const dbl = new DBL('nou', client);
  console.log('Posting server count')
  // Optional events
  dbl.on('posted', () => {
    console.log('Server count posted!');
  })

  dbl.on('error', e => {
   console.log(`Oops! ${e}`);
  })
})```

using klasa

not working

console.log('Posting server count') is working

posted and error both are not triggered

fixed

DiscordBotListAPI api = new DiscordBotListAPI.Builder()
                .token("TOKEN")
                .botId("ID")
                .build();
        api.setStats(jda.getGuilds().size());

It throws ClassNotFoundException, why?
Class imported: import org.discordbots.api.client.DiscordBotListAPI;

[tough grotto]

What is this channel for? I don't know what an API is

I do also want to learn how to make bots for discord so I'm going to try understanding ever

[dense basalt]

For help with the Discord Bot List API

e.g. posting your server count to the site and gaining bot/voter information

If you need help with general coding like making commands, I suggest you to start with choosing a coding language, and then looking for guides online in that specific coding language

and then when you have questions, you can ask them in #development

@tough grotto

[tough grotto]

Ok thanks @dense basalt

[sullen nymph]

Random emotes in #memes-and-media but don't spam

[jovial sorrel]

On dblpy, I'm not sure why my on_dbl_vote is not working. There's no error being outputted. Since it's each 12 hours, I'm not sure how to test it either.

[sullen nymph]

on_dbl_test exists

Try playing with port opening/forwarding

The port being the one you specify in dblpy's Client with webhook_port kwarg

[jovial sorrel]

Is there a default port?

[sullen nymph]

Negative

You choose it

[jovial sorrel]

Alrighty

[restive otter]

Alright.

[minor storm]

Wtf do I do because idk if I put the code or invite it’s like asking for both

[craggy garnet]

Just the code

It doesn’t really matter tho

[minor storm]

Thank you

[ornate abyss]

did something change?

'Client' object has no attribute 'post_guild_count'

[sullen nymph]

Your dblpy version changed

[ornate abyss]

hmm

how to check the version?

[sullen nymph]

dbl.__version__

Or pip show dblpy

[ornate abyss]

ah

its still the same latest Version: 0.3.1

nvm

thx

[sullen nymph]

Might rename dblpy Client to something else since some errors make it hard for all of us to live

[ornate abyss]

yeah

[craggy garnet]

can someone show the script for sending server stats for a bot. sorry forgot

[fickle junco]

js?

[restive otter]

no spoonfeed

[fickle junco]

i mean its on here lol https://discordbots.org/api/docs#jslib

[restive otter]

Oh he mean that?

[fickle junco]

idk maybe

i wish the java lib had webhook support :/

[quartz sail]

Why is this not done on the website? I always call the method on startup.

https://pastebin.com/BdnSqhQ0

[grand salmon]

what does this mean

[sullen nymph]

Try again

[grand salmon]

oh ok

[quartz sail]

can someone help me? xD

[runic grove]

just post your question

[quartz sail]

@runic grove look up

[runic grove]

oh

[quartz sail]

:(

[fickle junco]

does the website show any server count

[quartz sail]

No @fickle junco

Only N/A

[fickle junco]

i guess double check your tokens

[quartz sail]

I don't know why

I already did it but I can do it again

No, all is right @fickle junco

[sudden dagger]

what does the POST json response the api expects look like? i tried encoding a lua table with json.encode, but i'm pretty sure it's formatted wrong

[quartz sail]

Ok

I have the error

[narrow geyser]

What is it?

[quartz sail]

@narrow geyser the guilds wasn't loadet

[finite remnant]

CODE: https://hasteb.in/edipumat.js
Problem: Nothing happens if I vote

[fickle junco]

Have you already set up webhooks on the dbl website?

[finite remnant]

yes

password and webhook URL

I am now offline.

[sudden depot]

@finite remnant You need to portforward
using the webhook stuff is like hosting a website

[finite remnant]

@sudden depot i dont understand

[zealous helm]

Nubs

[signal comet]

what is this.?

[quartz sail]

Can someone help me?

Does anyone know why it could be that when I run the Vote Command and the bot on the V server is not working but when the bot is started on the IDE it works?

Fixed

[restive otter]

does anyone have a python example to use the webhook vote api?

[sullen nymph]

import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

import asyncio
import logging


class DiscordBotsOrgAPI(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the discordbots.org API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = 'dbl_token' # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.Client(self.bot, self.token, webhook_path='/dblwebhook', webhook_auth='password', webhook_port=5000)
        self.updating = self.bot.loop.create_task(self.update_stats())

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        logger.info('Received an upvote')
        print(data)

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(DiscordBotsOrgAPI(bot))

https://github.com/DiscordBotList/DBL-Python-Library :^)

[fading lynx]

Does the DBL api automatically get values from all shards? (discord.js)

[polar mirage]

If you pass your client to it and have all shards on that client

[restive otter]

@shut crest

[stone elm]

@arctic arch not sure if it was just bad luck or some api problems today, but a lot of people complained today that they've voted and they have not received their reward.
I've checked them manually via their id, and they show as voted: 0

https://i.imgur.com/inWq5Qc.png

[restive otter]

sorry

[worn quail]

I'm so dumb...

that would make checking users so much easier

[jagged escarp]

Hey, I'm using the .NET lib to update all my stats, but I'm a bit confused on how to update my shard count. It takes in an int array but I manually hardcode the shard count, what would the int array be for?

[sudden rampart]

guild counts for each shard

[jagged escarp]

ah okay

If I pass that in, do I still need to manually update the guild count, or does that take care of both

[wintry kernel]

The python server count example is a tiny bit out-dated

there has been a new way to do background tasks added

[sullen nymph]

Haha, nice reminder actually

Mind posting an issue about it on the repo?

[wintry kernel]

Sure

You got a link to it?

[sullen nymph]

https://github.com/DiscordBotList/DBL-Python-Library

[wintry kernel]

thanks

[sullen nymph]

[wintry kernel]

https://github.com/DiscordBotList/DBL-Python-Library/issues/15

Done

[daring cove]

async def clear(ctx, amount=100)
```is api abuse more than 100?

[restive otter]

max is 100

[full nova]

so what exactly do people use the api for?

like verifying votes to give rewards..?

[restive otter]

Yeah, or to fetch another bots information

but more vote rewards

[full nova]

ok

thanks

[knotty snow]

does anyone know how to check if ctx channel is nsfw

im using python

but its not rewrite

[sullen nymph]

1. #development
2. @worn quail if you don't mind

[knotty snow]

ight

thanks

[sullen nymph]

Might wanna edit the lib code at this point tho

[knotty snow]

yeah

its just a lot of work transferring tho lmao

[sullen nymph]

[knotty snow]

lazy is offline btw

[sullen nymph]

Time is money :^)

[knotty snow]

yeah

nvm figured it out

[worn quail]

ehe

What did you do?

@knotty snow I accessed the api directly.

I want my method to be well known, so im going to post it on github or sth

since a lot of people still use async

[sullen nymph]

(Without sending another request, might just edit the lib and add is_nsfw property to an instance of Channel)

[worn quail]

perhaps

but since my bot is dead and i admit that :^)

[restive otter]

fun https://dirigeants.please-end.me/DeR3RB.png

[knotty snow]

@worn quail I just decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to rewrite

needed to do it at some point lol

will be working on it throughout the day

[hearty dagger]

Good job

Rewrite > async

[worn quail]

says a whitename

[cold ledge]

I was a white name before I became a mod

[knotty snow]

white name bad

*crab rave

[knotty snow]

@sullen nymph changing from async to rewrite was actually really easy lol

[sullen nymph]

Yeet. Just a reminder that this is #topgg-api

[knotty snow]

yeah np

[restive otter]

is dbl (server add function) down?

[worn quail]

No

You need a bot to do it though

9h

Oh

Nvm

Yeah it may be down

[wintry kernel]

Rewrite is above async

Everyone can agree

Async support was dropped in most servers anyway

[hearty dagger]

Preach

[hot portal]

Well, you learn something new everyday

[deep bay]

im so confused with the discord.js api

do i need to change the webhookPort and webhookAuth

[junior cloud]

It's confusing me too

@deep bay did you manage to get it working yet?

[deep bay]

i think im getting there

[junior cloud]

I dont

not at all

xD

[deep bay]

yeah neither

the vote rewards are not coming through

[junior cloud]

yea

but its emitting the ready event, right?

[deep bay]

no

[junior cloud]

It's emitting it for me

[deep bay]

is your code in the index?

[junior cloud]

yea

[deep bay]

hmm, let me try that then, i have mine in a seperate handler

[junior cloud]

const dbl = new DBL(token, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: "chaosiscool" }, bot);
just simply did dat

dbl.webhook.on("ready", hook => {
console.log(Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path});
});
this normally emits

[humble bison]

don't publicly post your damn webhook auth

[junior cloud]

its not my real auth

[nimble heart]

?

[junior cloud]

@deep bay did ya try it?

[deep bay]

yeah, putting it in the index emits the ready event

[junior cloud]

kk

but the vote won't emit, right?

[deep bay]

just gotta wait for someone to test the vote

yeah no the vote event wont emit

[junior cloud]

Yup

I don't get that api

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[deep bay]

sigh

i wonder if the webhookPort is supposed to be changed or kept the same

[junior cloud]

Im keeping it the same

[deep bay]

same

[junior cloud]

well the ready event works so

[deep bay]

yeah

[junior cloud]

it can't be my code itself since

console.log("ff");
I got this at the top

And it's not logging

[deep bay]

yeah i got a console log in there too but doesnt do anything

im gonna try using the error event for it

[junior cloud]

BUT

In the docs it says it gives post requests right

Which means

actually nothing lmao

[deep bay]

mhm, imma try this

dbl.on('error', e => {
    console.log(`An error has occured: ${e}`);
})```

[junior cloud]

I got that already

Nothing

[deep bay]

damn

[junior cloud]

should we ping some mods?

[deep bay]

i mean

i dont wanna get yelled at xd

[junior cloud]

ima ping vinnie, he is cool he won#t be mad

[chrome canyon]

just ping ken

[junior cloud]

who's ken

[chrome canyon]

[dense basalt]

Kyoyu#7777

[chrome canyon]

@azure pollen who's ken

[junior cloud]

Ken, might helping me and Iska?

[azure pollen]

what's the problem

[deep bay]

the api is not emitting the vote event

[junior cloud]

^

[azure pollen]

are you writing a webhook thing yourself?

[junior cloud]

But the ready event is emitting fine

[azure pollen]

^^

[junior cloud]

tries to use brain

[deep bay]

um

brain.exe is not responding

[azure pollen]

if you don't want help i can leave :^)

[junior cloud]

task manager crashed while trying to close brain.exe

[deep bay]

nono

[azure pollen]

shitposting stays in #memes-and-media then :^)

[junior cloud]

F

[deep bay]

i would like your help, im just trying to understand what you mean

[junior cloud]

Oki

[deep bay]

sorry if im coming off as a troll

[azure pollen]

are you using webhooks or are you making api requests

[junior cloud]

Wait so, the ready event is normally emitting which means that it should work right?

api requests

[azure pollen]

show code

[junior cloud]

i guess
