[restive otter]

im trying to get my bots infomation

i tried to add Authorized header but i still get 401

[vocal ledge]

U juss showed ur token

@restive otter

[restive otter]

@vocal ledge its not a full token

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[vocal ledge]

Still

[tiny heart]

how to console.log() the persons id who voted?

[vast plinth]

i want to start collecting vote information so i can give users stuff, yada yada.
how do i go about it?

[loud jewel]

How do u get the server count to work?

[restive otter]

@loud jewel you send data to top.gg about your server count, either use a wrapper or make your own

[loud jewel]

Can i show u the error?

[restive otter]

Moving to development

How do ik that I get denied

For my bot

And do i need a website for it

[vast plinth]

how do i know what url i want the webhook sent to?

[restive otter]

what are you trying to do

[vast plinth]

use top.gg api

[restive otter]

oh idk man

I am just trying to get my bot uploaded

rn

how long does it usually take

so i need a website for it???

[vast plinth]

no

check #support

so when it asks:

the URL you want the webhook to be sent to

how do ik what that is...

does the api have to use webhooks?

[tiny heart]

const dbl = new DBL(process.env.TOPGG, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });```

What to write in password?

[restive otter]

The password you choosed in your bots edit page

[subtle hare]

What do I need to create a webhook

[pine heart]

the webhook url is the public ip of your hosting service

[pine heart]

same for you read my message above :)

also you have to do port forwarding of the port you use

[subtle hare]

it will be like this, right @pine heart

[pine heart]

I think you have to put /dblwebhook

at the end

but yeah rest is right

delete that picture pls

real quick

thx

it shows like the whole token from top.gg!!

you can't show this to anyone!

best is to put it in a config file

anyways

that password... u have to create it yourself

[tribal sky]

hi

[pine heart]

hi

go to your bot, edit, webhooks and set a password there @subtle hare

[tribal sky]

so im making this topgg cog in python and i wanted to check if vote rewards works but dont wanna wait for 12 hrs so i can use on_dbl_test for this?also how do i do that

[subtle hare]

thx

[tribal sky]

here how do i test the webhook system?

[rain heart]

through setting your webhook url on your bot page and saving it

pressing "Test" should then send a test request to your webhook

[tribal sky]

oh ok

[rain heart]

Remember that you'll need to actually save the webhook by pressing the save button, otherwise testing it wouldn't work

[hazy kestrel]

[tribal sky]

what exactly shud i give in the data parameter

[hazy kestrel]

[dense compass]

Why

[hazy kestrel]

[dense compass]

Let's not spam emojis thanks

[tribal sky]

...?

[hazy kestrel]

I was finna say smd

But

[rain heart]

Data parameter? the data parameter should contain the request data of the webhook iirc

which is listed here https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks

[hazy kestrel]

I see u a fat discord mod

[rain heart]

Under "Data format"

[dense compass]

What a lovely way to talk about others. I see you're quite the mature individual

[rain heart]

[hazy kestrel]

K

[tribal sky]

uh im a bit confused so how shud the final request data look like

[rain heart]

Let data print out like in the examples and screenshot what you're getting in response

It should look like the Data Format mentioned in https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks afaik

Just in json data

[tribal sky]

@rain heart it didnt print anything

i tested the webhook rn

[rain heart]

can you dm me the webhook url? I'll test it through a request client

[chilly pewter]

do I need to specify a webhook and authorization? (to use the python library)

[rain heart]

If you wish to use webhooks, then yes

if not, then not

remember that webhooks are most likely important when you get more than 1000 votes

[chilly pewter]

ok

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

```   is this right like that?

[rain heart]

I suggest trying it and see

[chilly pewter]

nothing happens

[rain heart]

remember that you have to save the webhook on the bot page settings first before testing it

[chilly pewter]

i am doing it without webhook or is it needed for on_vote?

[rain heart]

Oh i forgot you need the on_dbl_test one iirc

for being able to test

[chilly pewter]

iirc? 😅

[rain heart]

if i recall correctly

[chilly pewter]

ok

[rain heart]

You can also speak german in this channel if you prefer, i'm able to help through german too

[chilly pewter]

nah it is ok

or do you speak german?

[rain heart]

yes i do, that's why i ask

[chilly pewter]

sag das doch gleich xD

also braucht man für on_dbl_vote unbedingt ein webhook?

[rain heart]

Also wie gesagt: Soweit ich weiß brauchst du den on_dbl_test fürs testen mit dem Test Knopf

[pine heart]

moin moin

[chilly pewter]

servus

[pine heart]

[rain heart]

Ich meine wie möchtest du denn sonst die Webhook Events bekommen?

[chilly pewter]

da ist was dran 😅

ich hab so null ahnung von webhooks

[rain heart]

Webhooks sind einfach sowas wie als ob du eine Webseite besuchst und die Webseite eine Anfrage bekommt

Bloß das die top.gg API bei einem Vote diese Anfrage übernimmt und dazu noch Daten zu dem Vote sendet

[chilly pewter]

aber braucht man dafür nicht von irgendeiner anderen seite einen webhook?

[pine heart]

du musst ihn nur empfangen

[rain heart]

Ne ne, den Webhook erstellst du von deinem Bot, auf diesen Webhook wirst du dann die Anfragen erhalten wenn ein Vote kommt

Kurzgesagt was Togira gesagt hat

[chilly pewter]

wo bzw wie erstelle ich den?

[pine heart]

deine public ip von deinem host + port

das musst du bei dem webhook feld angeben

[chilly pewter]

kk

einen moment

[pine heart]

also http ://ip:port/dblwebhook

[rain heart]

Du kannst auch erstmal generell mit Webhooks üben, um mit dem Konzept besser vertraut zu werden

[chilly pewter]

ist public id und server id das selbe?

[rain heart]

ip* ja

[chilly pewter]

k

[pine heart]

also wenn du mit der ip auf den server zugreifen kannst dann ja

[chilly pewter]

k

der sagt jetzt das ein Fehler beim speichern war 🤔

[pine heart]

der letzte schritt wäre dann noch port forwarding, also du musst sozusagen den port öffnen

öhh

schick mal einen screenshot dm

[chilly pewter]

jo

[wide ginkgo]

With your API, does it autopost or do I have to manually post so often.

[rain heart]

Autoposting in regards of stats like servercount/shardcount, yes has to be done by your end

[wide ginkgo]

Thanks 👍

Is there a way to see the stats posted to the site?

[rain heart]

yes through your bot page ofc

[wide ginkgo]

I'm dumb, thanks 😂

[rain heart]

you should be able to simply do that with webhooks: https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks

[restive otter]

you didn't define DBL

case sensitive

ight

#development

[wanton saffron]

yo Ich werde in zukunft ein tuturoial bezüglich webhooks machen, aber mit JDA ( java ) libary.

Hab das ziemlich schnell jetzt hinbekommen mit hilfe von hier.

benutzt du java?

[rain heart]

Während wir grad beim Thema Webhooks sind und java: Habe letztens aus langeweile ne Webhook Library gemacht für topgg webhooks https://github.com/Hopefuls/topggwebhooks4j

sollte einfach zu verstehen sein

[chilly pewter]

nope py

[wanton saffron]

Ah dann kann ich dir nicht viel weiterhelfen , sorry!

[chilly pewter]

kein problem

[vast plinth]

Why does this link not work

[rain heart]

what link?

[gilded vine]

Is it possible to get comments from API?

[rain heart]

The reviews? Nope

[terse prism]

What I put here: Authorization
You can use this value to verify the requests are coming from us.

[jaunty plank]

Authorization is whatever you want it to be.

It needs to be the same in the webhook section and the code to work.

[knotty cosmos]

how to use webhookes

[paper grotto]

Hey, i have a problem with the api, I have the message in the console with this code js dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => { console.log(`Connection à la l'API DBL réussi.`); }); but i have this code and when a member vote for my bot, there don't are the message User with ID ${vote.user} just voted! help me please: ```js
//new vote on dbl
dbl.webhook.on('vote', async vote => {
console.log(User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!);
client.commands.get('new_vote_dbl').execute(client, vote);
});

[jaunty plank]

Did you fill in the url and auth on the website.

[paper grotto]

me ?

[terse prism]

const dbl = new DBL(yourDBLTokenHere, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });??

help-me please

[jaunty plank]

Yes @paper grotto

[paper grotto]

euh on this link ? https://top.gg/bot/670517555554811934/webhooks

@jaunty plank

[jaunty plank]

Yeah

[knotty cosmos]

how to use webhooks

[jaunty plank]

Id look at the api docs.
https://top.gg/api/docs

[terse prism]

where do i put the api key?

[jaunty plank]

in the yourDBLTokenHere

[terse prism]

okay

[terse prism]

'key'?

[jaunty plank]

its called a token, or a key.

both terms mean the same thing

[terse prism]

{ webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'What do I put here?' });

[terse prism]

?

[jaunty plank]

auth you set yourself

can be anything text, as long as its secure, and its the same in the webhook section and in your code.

[paper grotto]

@jaunty plank hook.hostname is the ip of our vps ?

[jaunty plank]

hook.hostname will always return 0.0.0.0
https://github.com/top-gg/dblapi.js/blob/master/src/webhook.js#L40

youll want to use your proper ip in the url you put in the webhook url on the site.

[rain heart]

0.0.0.0 pretty much indicates that you can connect to it from anywhere

such as localhost, internal ip (192.168.2.123 for example), through your servers ip or a domain like example.com for example

[velvet pond]

Hi -- The postStats method under the JS library notes that a server count argument with the description "The server count of your bot." I'd suggest updating this to note that the count is the count of that current shard (if sharding), not the server count for the whole bot. Was a bit confusing.

[outer summit]

Where can I put server count function in js, in start event or in index?

[rain heart]

in start

[rancid mist]

how i can active this

for my bot

[rain heart]

read pins

[rancid mist]

where?

[rain heart]

wait not pins sorry

read the channel topic

[rancid mist]

this?

[rain heart]

yes

read it

[rancid mist]

I already read it, then I went to the site, what do I do now?

Press here?

[rain heart]

read the documentation

if you do not understand it, then you're not ready to use the api yet and should learn how to understand documentations

[rancid mist]

Wait, is that documentation?

[rain heart]

https://top.gg/api/docs

is the documentation

[rancid mist]

If I don't understand what?

[rain heart]

do you understand what the https://top.gg/api/docs page says?

what language are you using for coding your bot?

[rain heart]

yes

go to the section for your programming language

in the tools section

[rancid mist]

JS

[vocal ledge]

click on javacript under Tools

[rancid mist]

Do I program this into my bot files?

[rain heart]

yes

into your bot

[rancid mist]

I understand now, after programming directly, the number of servers will be shown on the bot page, correct?

[willow spindle]

Yes

You should post server count to top.gg API

[rancid mist]

How do I know the number of servers?

[rain heart]

through your bots code

[rancid mist]

where?

how?

[rain heart]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/general/welcome

[rancid mist]

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();

client.on('ready', () => {
console.log(Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!);
});

client.on('message', msg => {
if (msg.content === 'ping') {
msg.reply('pong');
}
});

client.login('token');

--

This?

[rain heart]

read the discordjs documentation about getting the guild count

[bitter iris]

445345 is not defined

says my token is undefined

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!);
});

is whati have in my code rn

so do i have to change anything in the {hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path} part

[restive otter]

Did you replace the yourDBLTokenHere with your DBL token?

[bitter iris]

yes

[mild sparrow]

@rancid mist I recommend going to the discord.js discord server as that is purpose built for discord.js

[bitter iris]

@restive otter i did yes

oh i think it was the lack of ' ' on hte token

i didn't have my token inside the ' ' first tiem around

[restive otter]

how exactly to i set up server count like this

[merry zodiac]

Which language are you coding your bot in

[restive otter]

python

[merry zodiac]

oh then you can use the dblpy library

[restive otter]

ight thanks

[merry zodiac]

pip install dblpy

https://dblpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html

this is documentation

i think theres an example at https://top.gg/api/docs

[stone geyser]

How can I post the shard count of a bot with dblpy?
I'm currently using

class TopGG(commands.Cog):
    """Handles interactions with the top.gg API"""

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.token = os.getenv("TOPGGtoken")  # set this to your DBL token
        self.dblpy = dbl.DBLClient(self.bot, self.token,
                                   autopost=True, webhook_path='/webhook', webhook_auth='1234567890')  # Autopost will post your guild count every 30 minutes

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

But how can I also post shard count?

[dull thicket]

How do we get out dbl token

[rain heart]

you cant yet

you need your bot to be approved

[chilly pewter]

Is there a tutorial which tells you how to use the API in python?

[rain heart]

https://top.gg/api/docs

Python section under tools

[pastel widget]

What is the reason why my bot is attached to a server with 10K users but shows 3000 in the statistics command?

[rain heart]

#development

[viral solar]

"Error: 429 Too Many Requests"
have anything I can do to fix it?

this error is happening in the dbl api

[rain heart]

You got ratelimited

[viral solar]

what do I do to fix?

[rain heart]

you're blocked like approximately an hour https://top.gg/api/docs#ratelimits

go through your code and see what requests causes you to get ratelimited

[viral solar]

but it's been a few days that this is happening

[rain heart]

you somehow did more than 60 requests per minute

It's your codes fault

don't make more than 60 requests per minute

including posting stats, getting stats etc

[viral solar]

ok, thanks

you helped me a lot, thanks

[viral solar]

how would I know the exact time using some code?

[rain heart]

Just wait for one hour, optimize your code in the meantime

you should get request data when you hit the limit that indicates when you can retry

[viral solar]

So, yesterday I had already fixed it because I thought it was that, but until now I haven't been unlocked

[rain heart]

You got ratelimited again

[viral solar]

even with the tidy code?

[rain heart]

You are most likely sending more than 60 requests in one minute with any of your code

[viral solar]

the problem in my code was that I was sending a lot of statistics because I didn't know the limit

but now i'm sending it every 2 hours

this was the only reason to block

[quartz obsidian]

Not sure if this is supposed to be in this channel but I'm getting this error and can't seem to fix it

[rain heart]

You're missing your dbl token most likely

[quartz obsidian]

I added the token in the .env

[pine heart]

password?

[quartz obsidian]

I added a random password

[pine heart]

yeah u did that also in your bot's code?

did you enter it somewhere

[quartz obsidian]

Yeah, just trying to see if I entered something wrong

Yeah still doesn't work

[worldly saddle]

hey

what is token?

const DBL = require('top.gg');
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!);
});```

at the webhookauth:

[plucky lance]

The token you need to generate on top.gg and a password you can set as well

(bot edit page)

[golden gulch]

Hey, I've got a question. What would I set as the webhook URL if I want to get my bot's server count widget? I'm using Discord.js on a Node.js server.

[plucky lance]

I don’t get what you mean.
You don’t need a webhook service to use the widget provided by top.gg

[golden gulch]

Huh, but under the bot webhook section, it says:

"You will need a token to perform certain actions with the API such as posting your bot's server count and checking who has upvoted your bot."

As https://top.gg/api/widget/servers/753664580676354260.svg is currently undefined.

[plucky lance]

You can copy the widget URL and use it wherever you want even without providing your server count.
But if the server count in the widget is important for you, you need to report your server count in the first place for example using the dblapi

[golden gulch]

Ah, ok. Thanks, I found something about it in the docs.

[plucky lance]

Yeah you can implement the lib into your bot or just run a second instance with your bot as client and the imported lib.

[golden gulch]

Alright, thanks.

[plucky lance]

👍

[restive otter]

I am having trouble posting the guild count using the dblapi, I can't find what the problem is.

[golden gulch]

Most likely what I needed help with above.

You need to implement the dblapi into your bot.

[restive otter]

I mean, all the other APIs for other bot lists are currently working.

[golden gulch]

Ah, they may be using different methods to achieve the same goal.

[viral solar]

in practice it was supposed to be unlocked, but so far I can't use it because of "too many requests"

[fathom narwhal]

discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'dbl' raised an error: AttributeError: module 'dbl' has no attribute 'DBLClient'
dpy dblpy installed
giving me error

[jaunty plank]

Did you name any of your folders/files dbl - totally not copy pasted from shiv

[fathom narwhal]

PROBABLY NOT.... MAYBE....

[mortal herald]

https://github.com/top-gg/DBL-dotnet-Library

AuthDiscordBotListApi DblApi = new AuthDiscordBotListApi(BOT_DISCORD_ID, YOUR_TOKEN);

Is the BOT_DISCORD_ID just the long number that you get when mentioning the bot and escaping it with \?

Or is it something else?

[hearty lintel]

yeah it is

it's the bot's ID

[keen sleet]

What exactly is the webhookAuth parameter? Nvm! I scrolled up and realized someone asked this exact same question! Thanks, all!

[pine heart]

u set your password yourself

;)

[keen sleet]

Awesome! I'm going to go off of the prior answer. Thanks for your help, Togira!

[pine heart]

[rain heart]

Again, you are most likely keep getting ratelimited

Anything that interacts with dbls api in your code, counts to the ratelimit

If you have for example a !checkvote Command that checks if that particular user voted, that also counts to the ratelimit

Users could spam it and ratelimit your bot

[chilly pewter]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/761179160630263828/783984615261208616/unknown.png
what does this error mean i only get it when i restart the extension where the api is. (python)

[sullen nymph]

Oh dear God I'm tempted to literally suppress that error

@wurmi_#4964 feel free to ignore that error

I hate this

[sullen nymph]

Feel free to ignore that error as it will never occur in normal cases and doesn't (at least shouldn't) break any dblpy/top.gg functionality

[rain heart]

This is api, not #memes-and-media

[chilly pewter]

ok thanks but the problem is it doesn't even print the data in my console do you have any ideas?

[sullen nymph]

Well since you got that error, I can assume you got a request sent to you

[chilly pewter]

yeah

[sullen nymph]

Did you specify URL and Authorization on top.gg and press Test?

[chilly pewter]

yes

[sullen nymph]

Do you have an on_dbl_test event?

[chilly pewter]

yes

i can send you an screenshot if you want 🙂

[sullen nymph]

Feel free to via DMs :p

[chilly pewter]

ok

[rain heart]

i saw that

#commands then

[haughty rune]

with const dbl = new DBL(yourDBLTokenHere, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });

what do i do for password

[rain heart]

you can't use the api/webhooks yet

you'll have to wait for your bot to be approved

[haughty rune]

my bot has been approved

im just not the owner

im a developer for it

[rain heart]

oh, then

password is the authorization that identifies your webhook requests

[haughty rune]

how do i get this password

[rain heart]

so that for example other people cannot make a request to your webhook

that's something you define yourself

[haughty rune]

so i can choose it?

[rain heart]

it has to be the same as in your bot page and code

yup

[haughty rune]

oh epic

ty for the help

[rain heart]

[haughty rune]

hold on

hmm

how do i set the password on the bot page?

[rain heart]

through this field https://cdn.hopefuls.de/Sflf

this has to be the same as your password in your code

[haughty rune]

ah

do i have to set a URL?

if so, what would that be

[rain heart]

most likely yourserverip:port/dblwebhook

in your case maybe http://example.com:5000/dblwebhook

replacing example.com with your server's public ip address or domain

[haughty rune]

is it not a dbl webhook

wait do i have to put the ip of my bot host

like my VPS

[rain heart]

Yup

[haughty rune]

probably sounds stupid, but what would that be for heroku

[restive otter]

No

[rain heart]

no clue

most likely your project url iirc

[snow ridge]

how do i use the top.gg token and make it log the user who voted, and log it in the console? I'm on discord.js

[rain heart]

you have to do that through webhooks

[jaunty plank]

https://top.gg/api/docs#jslib

[snow ridge]

what should i put here

[jaunty plank]

the url to your webhook receiver.

[snow ridge]

And what is my webhook receiver

[jaunty plank]

the http server that receives the webhook post requests(or if using one of the libraries, that.)

[snow ridge]

im confused, what is that, im new to this requests thingies

[jaunty plank]

https://discordapp.com/channels/264445053596991498/412006692125933568/512732086289825802

[snow ridge]

im self hosting, so i'd need to put my ip there i guess

[jaunty plank]

pretty much, it will be http://ip:port/path ip port and path need to be filled in with the relevant information

[limber walrus]

@wild lantern

[snow ridge]

and the path is?

[jaunty plank]

if you are using a library its probably dblwebhook

[fathom narwhal]

HELP! i ran the server count on my test bot and i cant get it to update

how can i set the guild count to a specific amount

(main bots guild count)

just temp

[rain heart]

through the api ofc, or what do you mean?

you can just make another request to the api

[fathom narwhal]

there we go

alr

ty

[thorny parrot]

what does the api reply if it accepted my bots/stats post request?

[rain heart]

just a 200 response

[thorny parrot]

anything in the body?

[rain heart]

doesn't seem like it

according to the docs

[thorny parrot]

I'm getting {"shards":[]} and don't know if that's good

will look at status code

[rain heart]

the only endpoints that return something are pretty much the ones with the get method

[thorny parrot]

hmm, looks like I am getting a 200, will wait for cloudflare caching to subside I guess

[wise onyx]

are there any plans/ways to test a webhook without changing it for the bot while it's live?

[rain heart]

using a request client like postman

and some test data

[wise onyx]

that's what I've been doing, is there any way to know exactly what the request will look like so I won't end up missing a newline or something and dropping votes for a bunch of people?

[rain heart]

say no more

https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks

Section "Data Format"

that's the data (in json) a webhook request contains

[wise onyx]

thank you!

[rain heart]

Also, if you're using Authorization, the section "Verifying the request" above it is important too

[wise onyx]

to test that out with postman, what kind of token would I use? would it be a bearer token I'd test it with?

[rain heart]

Just a normal token, best is to just include it in the header section instead of the built-in way of postman

[wise onyx]

oh really, thank you

my bot's just been using security through obscurity since I didn't imagine it would grow to the point I'd have to worry about this or anything, so I'll definitely need to work on that soon

[dull thicket]

where do we get our dbl token

[sullen nymph]

https://top.gg/api/docs#mybots

[thorny agate]

top.gg/bot/[bot id]/webhooks

.

hello, i am trying to use the webhook for votes, i am receiving the post request and the auth header, but the post data is empty i am using php
print_r($_POST) => []

[sullen nymph]

Interesting

[thorny agate]

testing with this code

<?php
    include("config.php");

    $verification = getallheaders()["Authorization"];
    if ($verification === DBL_AUTH_VALUE) {
        $fp = fopen(__DIR__ . '/../votes.txt', 'a');
        fwrite($fp, json_encode($_POST) . "\n");
        fclose($fp);
        echo "thank you dbl.";
    };
?>

DBL_AUTH_VALUE is set inside the include("config.php");
this creates a votes.txt file with all $_POST data but i am getting [] when i press the Test button
any help ?

[frank leaf]

hi

[wise onyx]

@thorny agate something I ran into when I was testing my webhook was I just pressed test without pressing save before it, make sure you save after putting your webhook in

[thorny agate]

i am receiving the post request and the auth header, but the post data is empty

[wise onyx]

I had to use file_get_contents('php://input') for mine

[thorny agate]

thank you ill try this

@wise onyx it works thank you.

[wise onyx]

😄

[keen sleet]

For webhooks, does anything actually come in the body when the little "test" option is executed?

Do I need to actually execute a vote in order to get a test event?

I see the thread above with the php://input

    this.dbl.webhook.on('vote', (vote) => {
      console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`);
    });

Yields nothing

  addVoteListener() {
    this.dbl = new DBL(TopGG.key, { webhookPort: Bot.port, webhookAuth: TopGG.auth });
    this.dbl.webhook.on('ready', (hook) => {
      console.log(`Webhook running at http://${hook.hostname}:${hook.port}${hook.path}`);
    });
    this.dbl.webhook.on('vote', (vote) => {
      console.log(`User with ID ${vote.authorization} just voted!`);
    });
    this.dbl.webhook.on('error', (err) => console.log(err));
  }

'ready' works - just not vote

[keen sleet]

Yeah, it'll be your project url - also you have to use Heroku's preset port.

[haughty rune]

what is the preset port?

[keen sleet]

process.env.PORT

[haughty rune]

ok

[keen sleet]

They set it as an environment variable

Jake, do you use NodeJS?

@haughty rune 🤔

[haughty rune]

i do

and i got it, ty

i got the port

[keen sleet]

Were you able to get the webhook running on your local machine?

#topgg-api message

[haughty rune]

nope

[keen sleet]

For some reason, this does nothing in my local environment.

[haughty rune]

same

but it works on heroku

[keen sleet]

Do you mind sharing your snippet?

It's fine if not

[haughty rune]

i can't sorry

[keen sleet]

No worries

[haughty rune]

but it works on my vps

because its sending the webhook posts to the VPS

[keen sleet]

I mean, is the process above the same?

[haughty rune]

your local machine won't understand them

[keen sleet]

I'm using another service that portforwards a DNS name to my local terminal

I am able to establish a connection from DBL -> my local

I just don't receive anything

ngrok is the service name

[haughty rune]

idk

[keen sleet]

If anyone has a second, I would love an answer. It's probably something so dumb / miniscule.

Do I really need to initiate a vote for my bot 😬

Yeah, someone just voted on my bot and I received nothing. That's interesting. I must be doing something wrong 🙄

Nvm - figured it out.

Thanks!

I forgot that it defaults a path to dblwebhook 👍

[restive otter]

Hello how do we put the server statistics?

[mortal onyx]

The api is displaying my bot's status as streaming but it is idle.

How do I force the change?

[outer summit]

Where can I put the Servers update, in ready event or in main file?

[mortal onyx]

#commands

[zealous vapor]

I just started using the API so I'm probably gonna ask something really dumb, but for some reason my bot isnt console logging that it has posted the server amount

const DBL = require("dblapi.js");
const dbl = new DBL(config.dbl, client);

client.once("ready", async message => {    
    setInterval(() => {
        dbl.postStats(client.guilds.cache.size);
        console.log("posted")
    }, 1800000);
});```

[rain heart]

doesn't the Interval execute after the time you entered or from the start?

[sullen nymph]

You can use the Test button :p

[zealous vapor]

For some reason it does work when I use node . on my pc but not on my vps

solved it by using the correct bot token and running it on pc

[keen sleet]

Yeah, sorry about that. I was an idiot and didn't realize the default path was /dblwebhook 👍 - I appreciate your insight!

[sullen nymph]

:grin:

[solar quartz]

hn

[restive otter]

token:
        Your bot's top.gg API Token

Where would one grab this or is this just my bot token or client id?

nvm found it

[keen sleet]

Does the test event actually send isWeekend - or is that a mimicked value?

[zinc acorn]

Does the DBL JS library check the client ID if you put in the client parameter? I'm asking this because I also have a test bot that runs the same code because I don't want to be posting the incorrect server count.

[lone willow]

idk if it does but one thing you could do is if you are using javascript, in the message event do thisjs client.user.username = "<main bot id>";

then it should work

theoretically

[keen sleet]

Has anyone actually got heroku to work with the dblwebhook?

[sullen nymph]

I believe it's easy to do and there's no reason why it wouldn't work

It's just that people kind of struggle with that a lot

[vale moon]

I swear I don't understand how to do it, everything gives me an error ...
Someone could pass me a template in "repl.it" so I can do it :c

[restive otter]

hey there

I need help about webhooks

[rain heart]

Hey hey, what exactly does not work with your webhooks?

[restive otter]

hook.hostname = 0.0.0.0

I get this problem

[rain heart]

0.0.0.0 is a universal-like ip, you wont be able to use it in your webhook setting in your bot page

0.0.0.0 means like "being able to connect to it from anywhere", like for example localhost, your servers ip or a domain like example.com

If you're hosting your bot on a vps, you should be able to use your servers ip in the webhook url

if repl.it, it should be your project url iirc

[restive otter]

I use vps.

[rain heart]

yup, then your vps ip

[restive otter]

are you busy btw?

I want to show you this...

@rain heart where will i put my vps ip?

[rain heart]

you wont need it inside your code, you should use it in your webhook url

so for example, my vps runs on the ip 98.11.211.49 (not real ofc) and i want to use the webhook.
You should then be able to use http://98.11.211.49:port/dblwebhook inside your bot page

port being the port you entered ofc

[restive otter]

yeah I've already done it actually

[rain heart]

can you dm me the url? I'll test if it's reachable through a request client

[restive otter]

@rain heart can you send me a friend request?

[rain heart]

I unfortunately do not accept friend requests

[restive otter]

:/

[tiny heart]

const dbl = new DBL(process.env.TOPGG, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'password' });```

What to write in password?

[dense basalt]

Anything you want really, make sure no one else knows it so your data is secure

[tiny heart]

what exactly to write

[dense basalt]

A string

"akJDkJadakdjaidu98==_" for example

[tiny heart]

so do i need to write this password anywhere else in top.gg bot page settings?

[dense basalt]

In the Authorization in your top.gg webhook settings

[tiny heart]

ohh

thanks 😄

[pine heart]

[spare sleet]

does the api update at a certain time or? cuz like it says on the img i have 10 upvotes but i have 20 on the site,

[final bone]

How to use the top.gg api on my bot?

[rain heart]

https://top.gg/api/docs @final bone

[final bone]

How to get webhook of my bot?

[rain heart]

it should be in realtime, meaning that if someone votes and you would check the count right after, it should show the correct vote count

[rain heart]

read the documentation i sent

[spare sleet]

eh

well its not

[final bone]

Ok thx

[rain heart]

can you tell me the bot id you're referring to Nova?

[spare sleet]

it says on the img, 10 upvotes but on site 20

ye 1s

https://top.gg/bot/778344753795170374

[rain heart]

and what vote count does the api tell you?

[spare sleet]

its been like that all day :/

[rain heart]

https://cdn.hopefuls.de/nZKr

[spare sleet]

hmm

lemme try now

idk

[rain heart]

are you maybe storing that image instead of refeching it? (caching?)

[spare sleet]

ill check 1s

https://top.gg/api/widget/778344753795170374.png

see

thats what im doing

https://top.gg/api/widget/778344753795170374.png

in a embed field

[rain heart]

now I'm really confused https://cdn.hopefuls.de/TFeI

[spare sleet]

when i tried to store json it pulled the whole png file's source

oh yea

wtf

idk

[rain heart]

https://top.gg/api/widget/778344753795170374.png

https://top.gg/api/widget/778344753795170374.png/////////////

oh well give me a second

[spare sleet]

kk

[rain heart]

https://discordbots.org/api/widget/778344753795170374.png

yeah most likely caching

i suggest interacting with the api instead of getting the widget image

[spare sleet]

hm ok ill just leave it

hmm ok

ill check docs

ty

[rain heart]

[sullen nymph]

You can use query parameters to avoid caching

[rain heart]

Ohhh you're right, i've been using ////////// instead

[sullen nymph]

[fringe cove]

api doesnt install in repl.it

if i search dblapi.js it doesnt bring it up

and when it tries to install automatically

it still doesnt work

any fixes?

[fringe cove]

can anyone please help me

@rain heart

[restive otter]

Repl search is broken

Use shell to install npm packages

[fringe cove]

how do we do that?

[restive otter]

Press Ctrl + Shift + S and type the npm command to install

Whats the endpoint to get all the reviews of a bot. Ping me

[rain heart]

There's currently none yet

[meager harness]

Ahh!

Okay!

Adding this could be great so that we can show our bot reviews in bot's official website as a testimonial or something

[viral tinsel]

How Can I make a vote checker also if a people vote my bot then the bot send me a message

[pale fulcrum]

most people save to cache or db when someone last voted so they can get it immediately but there is an endpoint to check if someone voted recently

[viral tinsel]

can you send me the code

?

[pale fulcrum]

1. idk the language you use
2. I am not going to spoonfeed
3. you should learn how to use api/db

[restive otter]

Help me how we do a stats with the servers https://top.gg/api/widget/746698030375239822.svg?usernamecolor=FFFFFF&topcolor=000000

[viral tinsel]

I am using node.js and i want learn the but i dont wise how

[pale fulcrum]

well an easy way would be to make an array and add the user id to the array, and remove it after 12 hours

but you need to have the webhook on

[viral tinsel]

how can I create a webhook ?

i am looking in yt but i dont find a right video

[pale fulcrum]

Woo you can walk him through this

[jaunty plank]

That video looks like its for discord webhooks, not top.gg webhooks

Which are not the same.

[viral tinsel]

yea

i wise

i am typing top.gg webhook

[jaunty plank]

There won't likly be a video on it.

youll want to use the docs https://top.gg/api/docs#jslib

specifically, for the vote webhook, using this(youll need to fill in your relevant information)

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!`);
});

with the library installed

npm install dblapi.js

[stray pelican]

como usa esse server

[pale fulcrum]

what do you mean?

#topgg-api is for help with the top.gg api

[obsidian tide]

whats the difference between parseInt() and parseFloat() besides the demicals cutting out on parseInt() are they both basically the same?

[jaunty plank]

practically, yes.

[restive otter]

Hello how we do to see the stats for server stats ?

[pale fulcrum]

that is the difference tho since integers have no decimals

[thorny parrot]

            d, err := json.Marshal(BotDataPost{
                ServerCount: len(s.State.Guilds),
            })
            if err != nil {
                log.Print("Error marshalling struct: " + err.Error())
                continue
            }
            
            req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://top.gg/api/bots/777612933643108392/stats", bytes.NewBuffer(d))

this is how I'm posting, but I get a 400 Bad Request in response. data I post: {"server_count":32}

Do I need content type as the header? docs are very vague

[hearty lintel]

on post yes

was gonna say that but didn't know if the language accounted for it

[thorny parrot]

no, it doesn't read the buffer :)

[hearty lintel]

ye i see that

yeah just a Content-Type = 'application/json' should work

[restive otter]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/412006692125933568/783747555296280596/unknown.png

Why is there nothing?

[hearty lintel]

Did you just post?

[restive otter]

No I would like to know how to have the stats

[hearty lintel]

Oh what language do you use?

[restive otter]

Java script

[hearty lintel]

Use https://npmjs.com/package/topgg-autoposter

thanks, that worked!

I need help

Error: listen EACCES: permission denied

someone halp

pls

[hearty lintel]

@restive otter can u give some code?

[restive otter]

yeap

[hearty lintel]

use the new library for top.gg; https://npmjs.com/@top-gg/sdk

scroll down, there's an example for how to attach the webhook middleware

[restive otter]

thank you

[willow spindle]

@hearty lintel is that official

[hearty lintel]

yes

not announced yet but it's the new official package

[willow spindle]

pog you have a lib dev role

[hearty lintel]

ye

[willow spindle]

btw why there is another module for autoposting

[hearty lintel]

top.gg is making an effort to separate itself from Discord only related things, the new package is just an sdk for interaction with the api. The package topgg-autoposter, is owned by me and is officially recommended™️ lmao

[willow spindle]

separate itself from Discord only things. Hmm

[hearty lintel]

for example not handling discord posting from the client

there's still the functional method but it doesnt take a djs client for example and autoposts

instead the sdk is looking to create building blocks for other packages, like the topgg-autoposter

[willow spindle]

anyways, nice work!

[hearty lintel]

[dull thicket]

How do I get my dbl token

[upbeat imp]

For bots? Or in general if it’s for bots select your bot of choice and it should show for the in general I’m not sure

[dull thicket]

For the website so I can see voting

[upbeat imp]

https://top.gg/api/docs
Then select the Lang your bot uses

It’ll tell you which install to use

[hearty lintel]

you can get your token at https://top.gg/api/docs#mybots

[rough lion]

is it possible to give your discord bot a custom emoji on its status

[haughty rune]

yes, but this ain't an api question my guy

[rough lion]

how do i do it

can you tell me in #development

[dull thicket]

How do I make a event for voting, like when someone votes for my bot on top.gg

[hearty lintel]

which language?

[dull thicket]

python

[hearty lintel]

https://pypi.org/project/dblpy/

the second code block has an example

[dull thicket]

@hearty lintel how do I make a test vote

[hearty lintel]

via the webhook tab under your edit bot

[dull thicket]

what do I do there?

[hearty lintel]

click the edit under your bot

and press webhooks

[dull thicket]

yeah

im there

@hearty lintel now what?

[hearty lintel]

set up your code with your port and path and put your webserver info into those

do you know how web servers work?

[dull thicket]

not at all

[hearty lintel]

well, do some research on that first

[dull thicket]

can I have my friend vote for it as a test

will this work

[hearty lintel]

you have to have the other stuff that creates the http server

please learn how http servers work first i can't help you with that

[dull thicket]

yeah its there

that right?

[hearty lintel]

then you put your server ip and /dblwebhook into the webhook url and the auth as ur authorization

[dull thicket]

wheres my server IP

[hearty lintel]

how're you hosting?

[dull thicket]

local rn to test

I have a service

[hearty lintel]

well you need to open the port and put your home ip

[dull thicket]

do I get my IP?

[hearty lintel]

yea

[restive otter]

hey

I need help

I need help about the webhooks again..

What am I going to get in here?
Am I going to enter the webhook url?

[rain heart]

Yes

[floral orchid]

I've done everything but when someone votes, the bot doesn't write. What could be the reason?

[rain heart]

Your webhook isn't working then

[pine heart]

yeah

try to log something in the console when someone votes, then hit the test button on top.gg... if nothing is logged it means the webhook isn't working

[dull thicket]

How can I see when someone votes for my bot? Using python

[willow spindle]

Use webhooks

[dull thicket]

class TopGG(commands.Cog):
    """
    This example uses dblpy's webhook system.
    In order to run the webhook, at least webhook_port must be specified (number between 1024 and 49151).

@willow spindle Like this?

[willow spindle]

I don't know py

Also your dbl token is leaked 👀

[dull thicket]

I regenerated it

How do I test this

[restive otter]

I tryed the pinned code
and i added

and send a message to console```

But when someone vote it's not giving anything (error resault or ...)
Nothing

[hearty lintel]

learn how webservers work. i asked you yesterday

@restive otter use votepayload.type

[restive otter]

Can you give more info?

[hearty lintel]

it's a json body

not headers

[restive otter]

Can you give me a example ? Im not good with api

[hearty lintel]

if you're using express you should use the webhook middleware

https://npmjs.com/@top-gg/sdk

last example shows how to

[restive otter]

wait

Im using this

[hearty lintel]

if you don't know what you're doing you should use the library

[restive otter]

DBL?

[tiny heart]

const DBL = require("dblapi.js");
const dbl = new DBL(process.env.TOPGG, { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: process.env.WEBHOOKAUTH });


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

This thing is not working!
Please help!

In `console.log()` it comes below thing when someone votes but bot is not sending messgae to the voter!
```js
{
  bot: 'bot id',
  user: 'voter id',
  type: 'upvote',
  query: '',
  isWeekend: true
}```

Please Help!

[restive otter]

can someone make a code to when someone vote for my bot it sends a message?
please

[restive otter]

Try using vote.user.id when you are caching

[tiny heart]

ok

[restive otter]

And your direct messages
must be on

To bot send you dm

[dull thicket]

Why dosnt this work?

from discord.ext import commands

[tiny heart]

means?

[tiny heart]

still not working

[restive otter]

Umm

Is your dms open?

[tiny heart]

yes

[restive otter]

then i don't know why
Let me recheck your code

did you test
console.log(vote.user.id);
?

Try to find problem with console.log

[tiny heart]

ok

[hearty lintel]

its vote.user is the id

@dull thicket one last time. learn webserver, you have to create a webserver, and then set it as your top.gg webhook. if you don't understand it, either learn it, or drop it.

you have to have atleast a basic understanding of how backend http servers work

[dull thicket]

How do I make a web server

[hearty lintel]

https://google.it

[cloud hull]

https://top.gg/weekend

Is this the endpoint for the weekend multiplier?

[rain heart]

no

[cloud hull]

What is it then?

[rain heart]

read the docs https://top.gg/api/docs

[cloud hull]

It says /weekend

Right?

[rain heart]

where does it say that?

you're missing the /api/

Oh

[dusk hound]

If I were to include the object for the webhook inside of my client constructor.

const dblClient = new DBL(token, { webhookPort: PORT, webhookAuth: AUTH });
```would I just pass in the client as-well?

[hearty lintel]

@dusk hound https://www.npmjs.com/@top-gg/sdk i recommend usin the new package

the webhook and client are separate

[restive otter]

Will reviews ever be added to the webhook?

[dusk hound]

Okay, thank you!

[restive otter]

Would be nice to have that

[craggy lagoon]

sa

@woeful dock

[worldly sigil]

const dbl = new DBL('my bot dbl token', { webhookPort: 5000, webhookAuth: 'My authorization' });
dbl.webhook.on('ready', hook => { 
console.log(`Webhook on`); 
}); 
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => { 
console.log(`User with ID ${vote.user} just voted!`); 
});```

that isn't working

[hearty lintel]

I'd suggest using the new package: https://www.npmjs.com/@top-gg/sdk

[civic beacon]

In order for the dbl vote system to work on your bot, you first need to open 5000 ports on your internet.

[willow spindle]

How did you know they didn't open that port

[willow spindle]

Maybe

It was suggested iirc

[pulsar palm]

If I'm running my bot from my computer, what would I have to replace your.server.ip with?

[pine heart]

with your public ip of your computer... also change your password now that everyone has seen it ;)

and don't forget to do port forwarding with that port you use

[pulsar palm]

got it, also that is a picture taken right from the new topgg sdk docs 🙂

Sorry if this is the wrong chat to ask but, is there a chat where you can ask questions?

[hearty lintel]

depends on the question, if you're asking for help with the site, use #support , help with coding in #development and if you need help with the api ask here.
if you need help with a specific bot go to it's support server

[signal otter]

ok

[plucky dock]

Is it possible to send the name of the user who voted for the vote without using webhooks??

[waxen rivet]

Pls profile

[hearty lintel]

you can't event a user voting without webhooks, unless you want to make them run a command then check if they've voted, but it's just not really a comparable option

[waxen rivet]

Where is the dank memer

Server

Channel

[hearty lintel]

there is no dank memer channel in this server

[waxen rivet]

Is this where u appeal?

To get unbanned

[hearty lintel]

from?

[waxen rivet]

Dank memer server

[hearty lintel]

no it's not

[waxen rivet]

Ih

Oh

[plucky dock]

Hi, so i followed this on the docs, it logs the ready event but when i vote, it doesn't log

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!`); });

Is there something im missing?

[craggy moss]

is user id the same as the discord user id?

[hearty lintel]

@craggy moss yes

@plucky dock make sure your port is open to the public and have correct information in the webhook settings

[craggy moss]

how does get_user_vote in dblpy work? it's only returning false

does it need a webhook?

[floral spade]

This is the official module right?

[knotty cosmos]

what should we fill in authorization section

[floral spade]

it cannot send a message on discord webhook

[knotty cosmos]

why?

[floral spade]

that will not work

[floral spade]

Coz it just sends the json data in the request

that is not a embed

[knotty cosmos]

ohhk tq but how to do that

?

[floral spade]

you would need to set up another service like ksoft or something that gets the webhooks from top.gg and then parses them into embeds...

Better is just to have your own webserver recieve those requests and then send embeds in a channel

https://expressjs.com/en/starter/hello-world.html

[knotty cosmos]

ohh

i am

[floral spade]

hmmm

[knotty cosmos]

😕

[restive otter]

Can i get a music youtube api

[floral spade]

Lavalink

[restive otter]

Huh

[floral spade]

https://github.com/Frederikam/Lavalink

I guess you mean something that would stream music?

[restive otter]

Yea

[floral spade]

Yup then lavalink...

[restive otter]

Yea how do I use it

Idk how to find the api

[floral spade]

you would need to host a separate jar file along with your bot

and use a wrapper for the lavalink api like Solaris9's erela.js

[restive otter]

I do not know how to do that

[floral spade]

https://github.com/Frederikam/Lavalink#server-configuration

https://solaris.codes/projects/erelajs/docs/gettingstarted.html

[restive otter]

Oh I alr have those

I just need the API

[floral spade]

wdym by the api? like an official youtube api or lavalink api docs?

[restive otter]

YouTube

[floral spade]

Pretty sure a music api from youtube does not exist... But theres youtube api for all videos...

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3

[restive otter]

I mean API key

[floral spade]

https://console.developers.google.com/

create a project and credentials

in the console

[restive otter]

Yeaaa I’m dumb

[floral spade]

but it can't stream music pretty sure... You can just get the youtube audio links...

then you'd need to use something like ytdl to stream

lavalink does all that by itself...

[restive otter]

Yea like I said I’m dumb

And I have no idea how to do any of that

[floral spade]

Hmmm

read docs..

[restive otter]

Again I’m dumb af

[floral spade]

Is this deprecated or just some mitsake?

[sullen nymph]

It's deprecated, see #topgg-api message

[sleek sequoia]

Hi

How i can use api for show shards and servers

On top.gg

[restive otter]

DBL is not a constructor

I got it now nvm

[floral spade]

How do i use express to get the data from vote?

app.post("/vote/dbl", (req,res)=>{
//what do i do here?
res.send(200);
})```

[restive otter]

that looks like express am I right?

[floral spade]

yes

[restive otter]

that method is when a post request is sent to the website.

It's not going to send a webhook

[floral spade]

Ahh how do i accept the vote event from dbl then?

it sends the vote to a url right? and its a post request?

[tulip trellis]

https://youtu.be/bkh5Gx8pKZE

[restive otter]

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

const app = express() // Your express app

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

app.post('/dblwebhook', webhook.middleware(), (req, res) => {
  req.vote // your vote object
}) // attach the middleware

app.listen(3000) // your port

more info here https://www.npmjs.com/package/@top-gg/sdk

[floral spade]

Do i need the top.gg sdk?

or can i just verify the request myself?

[restive otter]

yes you need it

[floral spade]

ahh soo do i need the express app also?

[restive otter]

yeah

[floral spade]

ohk...

thanks..

[restive otter]

you can just copy the code above

[floral spade]

What's the body of the data like

?

for testing purposes?
since i can't test the dbl webhook on localhost?

Nevermind i got it

[rain heart]

https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks for future questions with webhooks

[floral spade]

{
    "error": "Invalid body",
    "from": "topggjs"
}

i got this

[rain heart]

Refer to the data format if you wish to test it with a request client first

[floral spade]

Thanks...

[rain heart]

Just to clarify: invalid body most likely means that it doesn't match the data format in https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks

[floral spade]

{
    "bot":773xxxx210916xxxx3,
    "user":4xxxx59887323xxxx8,
    "type":"upvote",
    "isWeekend":true
}

Yea i fixed it...

And just another question, votes will always expire after 12 hours right?

[sullen nymph]

Well, "expire" on top.gg's end besides the count, yeah

You can handle votes as one-time thing or require users to vote constantly still

[floral spade]

yea so like if i add some reward... let it expire after 12 hours...

[sullen nymph]

Pretty much

Nadeko rewards users for 24 hours so it's entirely up to you how to go about this

[restive otter]

how to make number server

im using python
and getting this:
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: object Lock can't be used in 'await' expression

all im doing is data = await self.dbply.get_bot_upvotes()

im doing it from my beta testing bot, is that a problem?

[sullen nymph]

The problem is that you are using Python 3.9

[cloud hull]

Hello. What are the webhooks used for when we edit a bot?

[rain heart]

Votes

[cloud hull]

Ok

[hazy adder]

^

[rain heart]

Each time a user votes for your bot, a request is made to that webhook

which you can use inside your bot to give rewards for example

[cloud hull]

K

[restive otter]

client.on('ready', () => {
setInterval(() => {
dbl.postStats(client.guilds.size, client.shards.Id, client.shards.total);
}, 1800000);
});
@sonic sorrel this?

[sonic sorrel]

essentially yes

[restive otter]

where do I put it? on the bot code?

@sonic sorrel :C

[sonic sorrel]

Inside your ready event

    setInterval(() => {
        dbl.postStats(client.guilds.size, client.shards.Id, client.shards.total);
    }, 1800000);```

this would be inside the ready event

client.on('ready', () => {
    setInterval(() => {
        dbl.postStats(client.guilds.size, client.shards.Id, client.shards.total);
    }, 1800000);
}); ``` this entire thing is a ready event

[restive otter]

@sonic sorrel sorry for ping. where I put the code

[rain heart]

Inside.. your bot code

How did you get your bot submitted if you do not know where your client.on('ready') is?

[restive otter]

oh

[rain heart]

Or are you just a bit confused?

[restive otter]

no no i know where it is ahahha

okok working

How can I do that? For Viewing Servers
