vapid cape
- install dbl's api for your language
- go to top.gg
- click "edit" on your bot
- scroll down to webhooks
- in "url", put your bot's address
5a. if your bot is in a vps, put your vps's ip address (YOUR.VPS.IP.ADDRESS:PORT/dblwebhook)
5b. if your bot is in glitch/heroku, put your project's address (YOURPROJECTNAME.glitch.me/dblwebhook or YOURPROJECTNAME.herokuapp.com/dblwebhook) - in "authorization", create a password of your choice
- in your code, use the dblapi library you installed in step 1, and put your port, dbl token and the password you created in step 6
7a. if your bot is in a vps, put the same port you put in step 5a
7b. if your bot is in glitch/heroku, putprocess.env.PORTas your port
austere pumice
bots address?
vapid cape
yes, the address of the machine/computer where your bot program is running
austere pumice
ip?
vapid cape
check 5a and 5b
austere pumice
im running it on my computer
vapid cape
then its YOUR.COMPUTER.IP.ADDRESS:PORT/dblwebhook
and you need to make sure those ports are forwarded and not blocked
vapid cape
port 80 is reserved in most systems
try port 3000 or port 5000
thats what most node.js apps do
vapid cape
that website doesnt really work for checking ports, because they will show as closed if not being used
you need to setup everything and then test in top.gg
vapid cape
public
austere pumice
so like xx.xx.xxx.xxx:2913/dblwebhook

yes

no, i mean if the webhookauth is the same as the authorization
they have to be the same thing

the same as authorization

then idk what else
try making a simple http server

im not a python user so idk, but look into creating a simple http server on a random port to listen to / and print anything that comes through it, then open your browser and navigate to 127.0.0.1:PORT
just to test if the server is working
austere pumice
idk anything about http
sullen nymph
Was there a moment where you made sure the port is open and firewall isn't blocking anything
vapid cape
oh yeah, also check the windows firewall (assuming you're on windows)

Firewall which is off
Improper port forwarding but God knows how you manage to fuck that up

hi, I'm trying to use dblapi.js but it's not working. It's running but I'm not receving the message when someone upvotes. The code is ok.
what is dbl.domain for?
tame kindle
what
marsh panther
ping me when responding pls
sullen nymph
Does the "what" not indicate your question made barely any sense
marsh panther
well, I have the library running and it should send a message on discord when the vote event fires. But it's not sending it and I don't have any error in the console
sullen nymph
Did you make sure your port is open and forwarded while no firewall is blocking the requests
marsh panther
yes
harsh stream
and did you enter the right ip address and port for the DBL webhook settings?
marsh panther
there is no ip adress parameter, is there?
sullen nymph
Do you think you can just enter some random numbers and make it work
Get your external IP address and use it in the webhook URL
harsh stream
the URL on top.gg needs to be something like http://mydomain.com:5000/webhook or http://123.123.12.12:5000/webhook
marsh panther
wait now I'm getting TypeError: domain.enter is not a function at DBLAPI.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:498:10)
ah ok
and if I didn't set a path in the code, is it just http://mydomain.com:5000?
harsh stream
I don't exactly know what you need to enter in your JS library because I don't use JS
sullen nymph
By default webhookPath is /dblwebhook
marsh panther
oh ok, thanks
harsh stream
And I think DBL only accepts http webhooks, so no https
But I might be wrong
marsh panther
oh
sullen nymph
What
harsh stream
I am wrong?
sullen nymph
I highly doubt that
harsh stream
ok, ignore what I said ๐
sullen nymph
But then again, you'd better ask a website admin
marsh panther
and how do I change that?
sullen nymph
by hosting a webserver manually or sticking to http
I don't recall there being an option to be able to use https unless express server has that
marsh panther
I don't think my site works with http, lets see
vapid cape
show your dbl code
marsh panther
const dbl = new DBL(config.DBLToken, {
webhookPort: config.port,
webhookAuth: config.auth,
webhookServer: server
}, bot)
dbl.on('error', err => {
console.error(err)
});
dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => {
console.log(chalk.green(`[SYSTEM] - Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}`))
});
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
bot.createMessage('666712304431136769', `<@!${vote.user}> Upvoted for us on DBL! Thanks :heart: \n<https://deltabot.tech/dbl>`)
});
and it's running on port 6719
vapid cape
your server is an express server?
marsh panther
yes
vapid cape
is it configured with ssl?
marsh panther
yes
vapid cape
if you're already running your own server object
you dont need a port
it will use the same port as the server
so remove the port configuration, and change your url to yourwebsite.org/dblwebhook

shut fjord
Hi, I got a short question:
In you're Doc you are saying that any bot with over 1000 votes per moth can not use /bots/{bot.id?}/votes, but need to use webhooks instead.
Where does the moth came from? And what will happend with the 1001st voter within a moth?
harsh stream
webhooks are a lot easier than asking the DBL server every time if someone has voted
shut fjord
Depends on the system and I'm realy just courious what will happen to the 1001st voter, scince I couldn't find anything in the Docs for that.
vapid cape
well, the docs say in big red letters that you cannot use it
so its possible that it returns an error if your bot has over 1000 votes
harsh stream
I guess there is no hard limit, but the admins might take action if you go over the limit
Or maybe there is a hard limit, I never tried it
vapid cape
there probably is a hard limit
you have to limit a potentially limitless json response
harsh stream
It's funny that the Java library has marked it deprecated without having the option to use websockets
vapid cape
what if the bot has like 20k votes? does it return all 20k or does it limit the output to 1k?
arctic arch
limits to 1k

so I'm trying to setup webbooks, but not receiving tests at all. (firewall is not an issue)

I think someone in #general said that there is an 18 minute delay on receiving votes through webhook right now
rain niche
question about the api, I have a cog listener event using the python DBL library, and when receiving POST requests i get this:
127.0.0.1 [18/Jan/2020:12:58:04 +0000] "POST /dblwebhook HTTP/1.1" 401 178 "-" "DBL"
but it doesn't call the function
but it doesn't call the function
sullen nymph
The authorization key isn't the same DBL sends
Make sure webhook_auth is the same as the Authorization field value on top.gg
Ah fuck you Discor
Make sure webhook_auth is the same as the Authorization field value on top.gg
sullen nymph
Getting anything?
rain niche
im getting it, just function isn't beinmg called
the authorization is the same in top.gg as it is in my bot
sullen nymph
rain niche
no im recieving it
in my bot i see the request
Economote [INFO] | 127.0.0.1 [18/Jan/2020:13:18:02 +0000] "POST /dblwebhook HTTP/1.1" 200 168 "-" "DBL"
in my bot i see the request
sullen nymph
fuck I'm being blind
Would you be sure that the event is actually registered on the bot?
rain niche
the event function is not being called
but I see the logs spout that out every time I test
(the delay I think is gone)
sullen nymph
Are you sending a test request?
rain niche
yes
sullen nymph
And you got on_dbl_test event?
rain niche
oh.. alright yeah that's what i was missing.
sullen nymph

@sullen nymph i have another question. how could i make it so the ip the server is on is 0.0.0.0, as im using gcloud and that's the only way i can think of being able to use the external ip.
on the webhook*
sullen nymph
Uhh
restive otter
mainly because i cant use the internal ip
sullen nymph
dblpy hosts the webhook on 0.0.0.0
sullen nymph
If you are unsure, you're free to to dig around the internal code
restive otter
ok, tysm c:

restive otter
last question, is there anyway to test the upvote thing without having to wait 12 hours each time?

I'd show the button itself as a joke but I don't have a bot listed so
There's a Test button on your bot's Edit page
You just save your settings and test the webhook there

Is there a test bot token I can use to see if my code for posting the server count works? I'm currently rewriting my bot so I'd rather not use my real bots token since it's currently used by the production version. Or is it okay to create a bot just for testing purposes?
spiral steeple
There is no test bot, but what's the risk in sending a server count?
harsh stream
During testing I first checked the nr of servers for my real bot and then I used that number plus or minus a few as a static value in the test version of my bot
Don't forget to disable or remove the test code after testing

Well did you specify the port in the URL
austere pumice
yes
sullen nymph
Are you sure your firewall isn't blocking stuff
austere pumice
I made 4 rules for it saying don't block port 5000
2 of them inbound tcp and udp, and 2 outbound tcp and udp
Ports currently open on all network interfaces:
Port Protocol Version Program
-------------------------------------------------------------------
5000 UDP Any (null)
5000 TCP Any (null)
25565 TCP Any (null)```@sullen nymph is there a way I could test if it blocking things
sullen nymph
I don't honestly remember if dblpy webhook outputs anything in console on request but you should probably check it out just in case
austere pumice
I have a cog listener for the vote thing
sullen nymph
is there anything being output in your terminal when you send a request to the webhook?
austere pumice
nope
vapid cape
are you listening to the test event?
austere pumice
i think so, but can you give me the name
vapid cape
dblpy has different events for normal votes and test votes, for some reason
austere pumice
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
well I added it, and tested the vote again, it's a nope
what could also prevent this
vapid cape
then besides router ports and firewall idk
you can try running a simple http server to test
austere pumice
can you give me the code bc I don't know shit about that
vapid cape
i dont use python, so... not really
green mantle
No
We are not gonna spoonfeed you
Also use a port tester to check if port is open on your public ip
austere pumice
I have
and it says no open
also @green mantle I fucking looked up the shit, and told me some complicated shit
green mantle
Because bots can and are complicated?
Idfk what you were expecting when you're intersecting with different web servers and socket layers
vapid cape
port testers do nothing, every single time i use them, they say my ports are closed, even though my shit works
austere pumice
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
windows says the port is open
but my portchecker says
ok, i have an idea @vapid cape how does one host my code on aws
vapid cape
install python in there, install all your libs, upload your files, and run
austere pumice
idk how to use aws
harsh stream
@austere pumice do you use a portchecker that is installed on your pc or do you use an online one?
harsh stream
the installed portscanner probably doesn't work while your bot is running because the scanner tries to use port 5000 while checking if it is usable
austere pumice
ok
harsh stream
if you want to use it then you will have to stop your bot first and make sure no other program is using port 5000 while running the port scan
austere pumice
ok

let readdir = require('util').promisify(require('fs').readdir),

it's undefined because you didn't setup an object for the webhook
you have to add an object with webhookPort and the path

vapid cape
the url is your glitch project url + /dblwebhook
and in your webhook port, you need to use process.env.PORT
and there is no dbl.on("vote"), it has to be dbl.webhook.on("vote")

what did you put in the url?

so uh how would I make my raspberry pi have a static IP without making the entire internet router static
this is related to dbl API
green mantle
some routers like Asus allow you to set specific devices to be static
also your router should be static anyway
this is referring to local IP btw ^^
harsh stream
I think almost every router/modem has an option to link a local IP to a mac address
your external IP is controlled by your internet provider and it depends on them if you have a static or changing public IP
green mantle
That's is technically wrong
They can be stati
Static
Most loca IPs are static if you have any decent router
Public IPs are often dynamic but can be static if you ISP allows it like mine
harsh stream
In the Netherlands most public IPs are static in practice, your modem can be disconnected from the internet for a few hours and you will still have the same IP
The ISP can give you a new IP, but they usually dont
worn quail
Local IPs are based on computer connection time
and are decided by the computer itself, if available
Or at least that's how I've set it up

Most routers have a DHCP server that assigns IP addresses on the local network

when i want to but a bot he is aying to me you have to varify your e-mail adress in order to enter a bot to a server somthing like that how i cant find any thing in my email , even how to resend it

What makes you think this is the correct channel
trail sigil
hey can anyone give me some guidance on creating a webhook from top.gg to my bot so it can see when a user has upvoted it
vapid cape
language and library?
trail sigil
javascript, discord.js
trail sigil
yep. I am still a bit unsure how it all works.
vapid cape
well, install the library and configure it
your dbl token can be found in your bot's edit page
the webhook port depends on how your machine is set up. if you're on a vps without a reverse proxy, using 3000 or 5000 is fine, if you're on glitch/heroku you have to use process.env.PORT, if you have another webserver running such as express, omit the port and pass your server instance to the options instead, if you have a reverse proxy such as nginx, use whatever you configured the nginx proxy to use
the webhookauth password is a password you create. it must match what you put in the authentication field in your bot edit page
the URL field in your bot's edit page also depends on your system's configuration, if its a vps without a reverse proxy, use your.vps.ip.address:port/dblwebhook, if youre on glitch/heroku, use yourprojecturl.glitch/heroku.com/dblwebhook (or whatever is the correct project url)
trail sigil
ok thanks a lot i will try this out now
thank you so much for the support i really appreciate it
i have now got it working so thanks
i have something else also using the port. i am using glitch. is there any way to have both this webhook and the other thing to use the same port?
vapid cape
yes
pass your server instance in the options
then it will use the existing server instead of creating a new one
trail sigil
ah ok ty

I have setup a wehook url but, however I'm not getting any response from the test button and wireshark confirms that nothing is coming in (port is open and firewall is not blocking anything)
nvm maybe I'm just being stupid
I'll ask again if there's still a problem
Alright I do need help
vapid cape
whats your url? where is your bot hosted?
shut mantle
[removed]
vapid cape
is endercrypt.network a domain you own?
do you have a webserver running on that domain?
shut mantle
no, my co developer, he is in a call rn with me
vapid cape
does he have a webserver running on it?
shut mantle
"possibly, but on different ports"
vapid cape
what kind of server? nginx? node? apache?
shut mantle
Wireshark does not get any incoming packages when we press the test button
Custom java based server
When we send a request to that URL using a browser, wireshark is detecting packages, but when we press the test button nothing is happening
vapid cape
hmm
i cant think of anything that could cause this. did you save before pressing test?
shut mantle
I guess I'm too retarded to press a button. I'm sorry for wasting your time heh...

could I get help with binding a port to to a PM2 docker container. Everywhere i've looked says to use docker run -p but we don't use that when running the container instead we use docker-compose up -d to update and restart the container and within the Dockerfile we use pm2-runtime, I am asking because I am trying to get the upvote post webhook working but the container is bound to IP 0.0.0.0 and doesn't have a port bound to it currently afaik right now.
btw, the bot is being hosted on a VM, and the docker containers are being routed using a nginx container.
if this should be asked in #development feel free to let me know. I wasn't sure if it should be here or that channel.
also no i'm not asking for help with everything. Just a few things to help get my started with this.

- dont ping the mods online
- you make a post request to
https://top.gg/api/bots/{BOT_ID}/statswith ```json
{
"server_count": <number>
}
no
you have to hit the request manually
I would recommend using an official library if you have no idea how to hit the request

Hello, I'm trying to get my bot to work with the API and I cant seem to get it to work, it would help if I just got a rundown of what I need to do in order to get it to work properly. I'm currently running my bot using discord.py.
sullen nymph
Are you using dblpy?
nimble hinge
Does anyone know why webhooks arent working? It says it will test it within a few seconds but nothing is happening
vapid cape
if its not working, then your configuration is wrong
restive otter
@sullen nymph Yes I am using dblpy.
sullen nymph
Make sure your needed port is open and you're using public IP address
DBLClient has webhook_x kwargs, when you specify webhook_port, the webhook will run
nimble hinge
I cant get the webhook to work. Can someone send me an example, because I think im doing something wrong?
sullen nymph
Which lib?
nimble hinge
dblPY, python
nimble hinge
I have it specified
sullen nymph
Make sure your needed port is open and you're using public IP address
nimble hinge
It is open
sullen nymph
Are you sure your webhook is running?
nimble hinge
Well when I go to the url from my browser it says Method not allowed
nimble hinge
I sent it
nimble hinge
Yes
eternal sundial
Alright so I'm trying to pull the votes from the website. I created a webhook within Discord and added that to the https://top.gg/bot/:ID/edit page.
I'm using discord.py rewrite
I don't have an idea of what to do next lol
vapid cape
discord webhooks have nothing to do with dbl webhooks
you run the dbl.py module in your code, configure it with as a webserver (give it a port and an auth password)
then in the edit page you put the auth password you configured, and in the url you put whatever address will make dbl find your bot
this can be your.vps.ip.address:port/dblwebhook or your project url if you're using glitch/heroku
basically, dbl sends the webhooks directly to your machine, which is listening to them through a mini-server created by dbl.py
it has nothing to do with discord webhooks
eternal sundial
ooo
restive otter
In the docs it shows async def update_stats(self): """This function runs every 30 minutes to automatically update your server count"""
Do we have to call this first? Or does it start itself?
sullen nymph
You call it somewhere in your code
Or set autopost kwarg to True when declaring DBLClient
sullen nymph
๐
eternal sundial
@sullen nymph where do you see autopost?
nimble hinge
Yeah ive noticed that, some things arent there
eternal sundial
Yeah I've been going through them for a little while now lol

lmao
eternal sundial
so under the edit page on dbl, for the url, I put your.vps.ip.address:port/dblwebhook?
or is dblwebhook something else?

Depends on what you set webhook_auth to

that's the password right?
eternal sundial
Would there be any point in changing it?

I'm trying to use the webhook to detect when someone upvotes my bot. The updated server count works fine and I think I've got everything webhook wise setup correctly. I opened the port on my host and added the test listener but it isn't recognizing the test from the edit page.
Is there something else I need to do for the webhook to work?
elfin maple
I have the same problem; https://glitch.com/edit/#!/noa-discord
vapid cape
What is the problem? All your dbl code is commented out
Also, what did you put in your top.gg edit page?
vapid cape
Console.log q.body
Yoire probably getting it as a string
Add content-type json or json.parse it
vapid cape
Or console.log body itself, and see what youre actually receiving. The payload might not be in body
@eternal sundial and yohr top.gg config?
vapid cape
Did you check the vps control panel for any port opening? Some hosts require that, like google's GCE
vapid cape
Check your hosting company
They might require you to do something in their control panel
eternal sundial
Alrighty
vapid cape
req.body
Contains key-value pairs of data submitted in the request body. By default, it is undefined, and is populated when you use body-parsing middleware such as express.json() or express.urlencoded().

Then idk
Can you try running a small webserver and test if it works?
Im not famliar with python webservers so i cant help you there, but you should find your way
sullen nymph
Simple Flask script or straight up copy dblpy's internal code
vapid cape
Dbl webhook libs should have a test that listens to get requests
so you can try it in your browser
harsh stream
Maybe check what response you get if you try to connect to that URL with a browser
eternal sundial
@sullen nymph Which part?
sullen nymph
You mean the webhook dblpy uses?
eternal sundial
for the webserver, I think that's what I'm missing cause if I type vps.id.address:port into my web browser nothing happens
sullen nymph
Tried visiting ip:port/dblwebhook?
vapid cape
Does dblpy listen to get requests?
eternal sundial
sullen nymph
@vapid cape nop, only POST
@eternal sundial a pure poke on the ground but have you tried adding http:// before the ip
eternal sundial
@sullen nymph Nothing, well, it says it took too long to respond

Hi
I'm trying to use dblapi.js in my project but i can't run webhookevents
I'm running an express.js server in port 3000 and webhook in port 5000, everything is running fine but when i trying to catch ready event of the package ain't receive anything
sullen nymph
Show your code
elfin maple
yep, wait
sullen nymph
@eternal sundial 
elfin maple
All code is in init(), hmm i guess that is the error because when i put dbl.webhook.on("ready") out of that function works fine.
eternal sundial
@sullen nymph
That's the only code I have in regards to dbl
I think I'm missing the webserver part
vapid cape
@elfin maple glitch only supports port 3000
You can add your existing server to dblapi.js: scroll down to last example https://top.gg/api/docs#jslib
sullen nymph
You are running the webhook just fine if when visiting http://ip:port/dblwebhook webhook gices you "Method Not Allowed"
eternal sundial
Then wtf lol
sullen nymph
Did you save your settings 
eternal sundial
I just redid it
Lemme test
So when I hit test
Does it just print in console?
sullen nymph
by default yes but I can't access your URL 
Are you sure that cog is loading
Also why are you using autopost AND making a loop for update_stats 
eternal sundial
Cause I grabbed the manual example and then you mentioned the autopost here.
lol
So I can delete the whole task?
and the cogs load
sullen nymph
Fun, I typed 42 instead of 142
eternal sundial

Webhook is working fine, make sure your Authorization values are the same in your code and on top.gg, re-save and test again

Have a database, store the user's ID in there and probably timestamp

ok

and on command usage, fetch that data from database and compare current timestamp to saved timestamp

It's an API call which kinda defeats the purpose of webhooks

Which port does dbl send webhook requests to?
and is the documentation outdated cause I'm getting this error when trying to use dbl.webhook.on:
Property 'webhook' does not exist on type 'DBLAPI'.
You need to configure the port in the dbl options
Then it will enable the webhook receiver
Check the webhook examples in the docs

- The image is cached, you might want to add a cache breaker

When I try to send a GET request to thehttps://top.gg/api/bots/:id/check/?userId=user id here it seems to sometimes give me a 401 error even though I am providing the correct token. I am doing it like this

@topaz wyvern

Wdym already voted?

Let's say a user wants to use a vote locked command, and they have not voted for my bot yet.
I want to make voting their only option if they have not yet used their vote.
I want to do something else if they already spent their vote.

@rustic burrow webhooks are basically a term for post requests that you use for pushing updates/notifications of some sort
lyric vine
can anyone give me a crash course in webhooks
spiral steeple
webhooks allow servers to send you requests and data. If you connect a webhook to top.gg sends you vote data including the user id and some other stuff.
lyric vine
i know what they do but i want to know how to set them up
everywhere ive looked just says what they are but not much on how to use them besides some screenshots of javascript
spiral steeple
Well, you make a http server that accepts requests and make a handler for whatever it is you're using it for
I personally use node's built in http module and fastify because that's what I know, but I believe express works
lyric vine
i dont know any js
only py
and cant find any guides on making the server and handler part
lyric vine
i want to have it both do votes and manage some paypal donations for me if i can
spiral steeple
But I can tell you, generally, how it would work but I wouldnt be able to help with any code because I use js
Shivaco, the maker of dblpy, might be able to help better
lyric vine
i mean general is better than nothing
spiral steeple
So my top.gg webhook that I used to use that I made is just an http server waiting (or listening) for requests then when it got one it sent the request to the method I made. dbl sends data as json (I would think that JSON is the most common, but url encoded is a possibility) so first you parse whatever it is that was sent, usually if it's an application/json it's in the body of the request. then you can use the data it sent as normal object or map (idk what python calls it) you'll also want to send a response code so the server knows its request was verified (some websites will send it until it is accepted or until it caps out, like twitch) so you just send a response code (200 is OK, 401 is Unauthorized which I think are the most common) and message if you want. You'll also want to make sure you set some type of authorization code so not just anyone can send a request and it'll be operated on like normal (alternatively you can use a firewall to only accept requests from specific IP's I think*). I think that's a basic run down of generally how you would make your own, I wish it wasn't 1:09 AM or I would answer questions too, but I really need sleep for tomorrow. I suppose if you do have questions you can ask but I'm hopping off regardless, good luck with them though
clever rock
@lyric vine do you need a webserver for your votes?
so it doesnt run alongside with your bot?
lyric vine
honestly i dont know what i need
analog trout
Hey when you pass your client to new DBL() like in this example
const client = new Discord.Client();
const DBL = require("dblapi.js");
const dbl = new DBL('Your top.gg token', client);```
Can you only do it if you aren't sharding? My understanding is that each shard would be creating it's own instance of client correct?i want to have it both do votes and manage some paypal donations for me if i can
@lyric vine Flask or aiohttp.web sound like what you would need
