radiant tendon
so i'm using this api but when i try to post the server count it says "Error: 404 Not Found" anyone knows how i can fix this? or is it because my bot is not yet accepted?
willow spindle
Hmm can you show your code
mortal ore
so i'm using this api but when i try to post the server count it says "Error: 40...
it is bcause ur bot is not accepted
radiant tendon
alright thanks
turbid ocean
'\
willow spindle
How did you know that
mortal ore
if it is accepted and not working send ss
mortal ore
How did you know that
sorry there was a lag while i was typing the whole thing
radiant tendon
if it is accepted and not working send ss
it's not accepted (yet)
mortal ore
then that may be the error
willow spindle
Then thats why
mortal ore
i think they have provided the code needed to post the guild count on their website
so u cant go wrong with that
@willow spindle pls tell me if you know how to solve this

Hey
How can I learn shortly how to make my bot sending a thanks message when someone vote for him (ping me when you answer pls)
Thanks for your help

jaunty plank
Once you have the webhook setup, its just fetching the user and user.send
https://top.gg/api/docs#jslib
@queen current
jaunty plank
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!`); });
yes I see this
jaunty plank
Then on your bots edit page in the webhook section fill in the url and auth
queen current
but it's saying there is a error in a file in the dblapi module
jaunty plank
What error
queen current
Don't remember, I tried this a month ago kind of
sorry
I can do this again wait
401 Unauthorized
at this line ⬆️
jaunty plank
Unauthorized would be a bad token, or a bad authorization.
You need to make sure your authorization is correct mainly, your token doesn't need to be correct if your just using the webhook.
jaunty plank
jaunty plank
Yeah
jaunty plank
Authorization is whatever you make it(its like a password.
queen current
what I need to change
jaunty plank
Nope that's just an event
jaunty plank
Hook.hostname is in an event
queen current
ok
so I replace 'password' with a password that I paste on 'Authorization' on the website
jaunty plank
You need to fill in the url and auth on the site.
The url will be something like http://ip:port/dblwebhook
And yeah, id look into making it something secure though, since its the password the webhook will use.
rapid kettle
WHEEre are you hosting?
queen current
it's the host ip?
rapid kettle
yea
jaunty plank
It always logs 0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0 just means any ip available to the code.
You'll want to use your proper ip
queen current
ok
queen current
don't understand
I'm french and bad a english speaker
queen current
ok
so I haven't any error !!!!
so that's an event, if someone vote, it's console.log
Am I right?
@jaunty plank sorry but I'm very excited at the ideea that it can work
jaunty plank
Do you have any firewalls?

floral spade
Why are half of my requests forbidden?
I'm using @restive otter/sdk
ooops i tagged someone
floral spade
Nah that's all the test requests
from top.gg
why would that be bad requests?
Just used this
does it have ratelimits?
floral spade
Yes
rain heart
then there's something screwed up with the auth of the request
floral spade
nah it's the same request all the time...
how...
And why am i getting get requests from top.gg??
So is there something wrong on top.gg's side?
floral spade
but shouldn't it be a post request?
floral spade
Thats kinda weird...
And why are half the requests without a correct authorization header getting through
rain heart
maybe that's just random requests from people who accidentally access it
or test it
would explain both the 403 (post request without authorization) and the get (accessing the url from a browser)
floral spade
maybe that's just random requests from people who accidentally access it
well ok i get why the get request... but the successful post requests without the proper auth? I changed my auth token on top.gg and saved it... But some of the requests are still going through even though the auth is incorrect...
floral spade
The auth did not change for some reason...
floral spade
you need to press save
did that 10 times... also refreshed the page
Yup, it is not getting updated on top.gg
still sending me requests somehow
rain heart
very weird, try making a test request using postman maybe
floral spade
so what should be my body?
{
"bot":xxxx8172109165xxxx,
"user":xxxx3598873234xxxx,
"type":"test",
"isWeekend":true
}
This right
rain heart
yeah use that as test data
floral spade
Uhh wait that worked...
sooo what's happening with top.gg?
it's using wrong auth half the time?
floral spade
403 is wrong auth right?
rain heart
once i changed the value, it worked perfectly
correct
502 is always wrong request method
floral spade
weird...
rain heart
indeed
floral spade
atleast no one can post votes without the proper header that's good to know
or maybe i just got ratelimited to changes on their site or something...
And i'm still getting weird get requests although no one has the url except me and i'm not opening it in a browser...
rain heart
you can't get ratelimited from webhook requests
unless ngrok ratelimits requests which i highly doubt 
floral spade
Ahh i mean requests to update settings on dbl...
rain heart
shouldn't cause an issue either
floral spade
sooo it's not updating anything which save on top.gg....
so it's using the old header and url...
but that shouldn't cause half of the requests to be unauthorized...
rain heart
i can only suggest try testing webhooks in like 1-2 hours again
maybe you did get ratelimited in any way
restive otter
Api ne
rain heart
what?
floral spade
It's sometimes using the old url and sometimes the new one... Weird...
rain heart
yeah try it later then
floral spade
yup...
rain heart
really weird, haven't seen that before
floral spade
Yup i spot an error which it gave 1000 years later after i clicked save...
rain heart
nah now you actually got ratelimited
floral spade
Nevermind it took like 40 secs to load...
rain heart
check your console when you try to save
floral spade
not ratelimited... Their servers are prolly having a bad day today....
restive otter
?
rain heart
floral spade
check your console when you try to save
Ummm that's bad
rain heart
https://top.gg/api/docs is the place to get started
nah that error has always been there
floral spade
ahh ok...
rain heart
then use the new library
floral spade
i got a 502 yup i am ratelimited
restive otter
then use the new library
what library?
rain heart
floral spade
i got a 502 yup i am ratelimited
wait thats a bad gateway...
rain heart
bad gateways happen from time to time
restive otter
Thx
floral spade
bad gateways happen from time to time
Hmmm okay...

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

``` This should console log who voted right?Use webhooks
restive otter
@sullen nymph wdym webhooks?
rain heart
Webhooks you can enter on your bot page settings
restive otter
no but i want to make a vote reminder command
sullen nymph
Create a webhook, receive votes in real time, check if user opted-in for vote reminders, if yes, send vote reminders
restive otter
no an event for receiving vote
sullen nymph
An event for receiving votes is iterally why you'd use a webhook
autumn pendant
idk if im doing it right
restive otter
hm idk if you are understanding what im trying to say, so i want to do like
-
i have made a vote reminder command to enroll user for vote reminders.
-
It will checks the list of users in vote reminders every 6h and tell them to vote for bot.
-
if i just use the api it will get rate limited as there will be many users in the vote reminder list
sullen nymph
Why would you need the API in this case?
restive otter
how will i check if the user have voted or not then
rain heart
webhooks
restive otter
how? can u give a example im confused
restive otter
rain heart
Correct
rain heart
There is, go to your library on the navigation to the left
Section tools
Depending on your library, there's also something about webhooks
restive otter
this is the only thing related webhook
but its for receiving votes via webhook
i think its this https://dblpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html
sullen nymph
Yeah, receive votes via webhook, store them locally, and rely on them instead of fetching the API
restive otter
what? we need to store that locally? bruh
sullen nymph
In your case it's easier to do that

why this is not working when someone vote?tag me for answer pls
hearty lintel
@restive otter are you getting an error or is it just not posting?
oh i see
vote.user is just a user id the webhook provides no info like username etc

i can't get username?

just get the user form your cache

what do i need to do to set up my vps for recieving webhook posts

tall salmon
Hello, I want to show the server count on my bot's page
I put this line in the client.on("ready") event
const dbl = new DBL('my token here', client);
But I get the error "TypeError: Cannot read property 'run' of undefined"
I did write const DBL = require("dblapi.js"); before that too
Can someone help me with this?
jaunty plank
the error is happening on that specific line?
or can you show the line the error is happening on.
tall salmon
This is the error @jaunty plank
jaunty plank
whats on line 81
tall salmon
This command.run(client, message, args);
jaunty plank
that error isnt for the api, its your command handler erroring.
tall salmon
When I remove the api stuff, it works fine
hearty lintel
then you probably put it in the wrong place
tall salmon
const DBL = require("dblapi.js"); is at the top of the script
const dbl = new DBL('token', client); is in the client.on("ready") event
where else does it have to be?
jaunty plank
is the error happening at startup?
tall salmon
Yes
jaunty plank
did you accidentally delete a }) somewhere
jaunty plank
specifically the one for your on ready event.
tall salmon
Yeah, it was missing there, but still the same error
jaunty plank
put it back at the end of your ready code.
if its still erroring there then you probably accidentally deleted more closing brackets.
tall salmon
wdym back of the ready code
jaunty plank
so everything you run in your ready event needs to be inside the ({ and })
tall salmon
const dbl = new DBL('token', client); is the last line in ready event
jaunty plank
okay then }) on the line after that
tall salmon
Yeah, it's there
jaunty plank
and same error when you save and restart?
tall salmon
Yeah
jaunty plank
are you using an ide?
something with a problems section like this?
https://i.imgur.com/9HUkc0m.png
tall salmon
Yeah VS Code
Actually this time it didn't give any error
but it didn't update on the site either
jaunty plank
the site takes time
tall salmon
hmm
jaunty plank
give it 5 minutes, then shift+f5
hearty lintel
or hit the refresh data button i think
solar quartz
How i create my own endpoint to get votes ?
jaunty plank
your trying to make your own api?
tall salmon
@jaunty plank it gave the same error after 5 minutes in the IDE 😅
cannot read property run
jaunty plank
so, that seems like a command handler issue still.
which is why i was asking if it was running at startup
someone ran a command i think, and the command handler errored.
tall salmon
umm
but then it works without the api
the cmd handler is fine without the api
and Im calling const dbl = new DBL('token', client); in the ready event, not in the message event
jaunty plank
yeah, so hows it affecting your message event.
tall salmon
so I don't think someone using a command should affect it
jaunty plank
but the error is happening in your command handler
index.js line 81
and the error specifically says, your command is undefined(potentially someone running a command that doesnt exist?)
which is why it not running on startup was important.
tall salmon
umm
well, my bad, I used a command that doesn't exist, and it gave me the same error
jaunty plank
lol, np.
tall salmon
how would I fix it tho
@jaunty plank so does it send the servers data to top.gg tho?
jaunty plank
it should send the server count, if you want to be sure its posting you can add the optional events
// Optional events
dbl.on('posted', () => {
console.log('Server count posted!');
})
dbl.on('error', e => {
console.log(`Oops! ${e}`);
})
Nah, it doesn't send lol oof
and this happened on start
@jaunty plank This happened on start, when nobody used a command that doesn't exist
doesnt send any log either
hearty lintel
if you're posting stats i suggest using the new library https://npmjs.com/@top-gg/sdk
tall salmon
@hearty lintel it literally gives the same error on start when using that module
.__.
hearty lintel
yeah i'm just saying
the error you're getting is an issue with your code
i suggest using a proper IDE which can show you errors and describe them
tall salmon
It's VS Code
jaunty plank
check the problems section
tall salmon
nothing there
hearty lintel
paste lines 76-85
tall salmon
um
if(command.timeout){
if(Timeout.has(`${message.author.id}${command.name}`)){
return message.channel.send(`Wait ${ms(command.timeout)}econds to use that command again. DON'T BREAK ME!`)
}
else{
Timeout.add(`${message.author.id}${command.name}`)
setTimeout(() => {
Timeout.delete(`${message.author.id}${command.name}`)
}, command.timeout);
}
}
command.run(client, message, args);```I made a timeout for that, doesnt really matter in this case I guess
restive otter
what is a good interval for posting statistics?
hearty lintel
30 minutes is the default
restive otter
like it handles by it self?
tall salmon
Hey, how will I go about fixing that the bot also reads messages about commands that dont exist?
hearty lintel
@tall salmon well i'm not sure what's wrong it's not an issue with the top.gg api so this channel isn't correct
tall salmon
Like I made a typo in -ping and mistakenly changed it to -pung, but the prefix is still there, so the bot reads that message
hearty lintel
tall salmon
hmm
restive otter
i need an https server running to get votes right?
restive otter
ok
tall salmon
I have a question
When we call the postStats function in the client.on ready event, does it happen after 30 minutes or happens then and there and again happens after 30 mins?
In the setInterval
It's not logging and not updating on the site either
I've been waiting and it's not posting the stats
jaunty plank
Which lib are you using?
tall salmon
dblapi.js
jaunty plank
The auto poster should post for you.
tall salmon
It's not logging/sending anything

Is the constructor outside the bots ready event?

You define the auth as whatever you want

Just needs to be the same between both the bot and website

You define the auth as whatever you want
No, I use the Pssowrd

express
torpid compass
?
torpid compass
Did you find a tutorial or something or did you do it yourself?

well i read the docs of the lib im using
and i made it so it sends a request to my webserver and my webserver sends a payload to my database
torpid compass
Do you know what to put here
dusk hound
you're server ip, port, and path
server ip -> 127.0.0.1
port -> 5000
path -> vote
```the server ip i provided wouldn't work.do you know where I can find this stuff? I didn't find anywhere in the docs that told me I had to do this xd
dusk hound
Well, I don't use the api's listed on the api page. I use, top-gg/wrapper
Is their a endpoint to check when a user voted, or do I have to store it myself?

All methods in Python must implement an argument that refers to a current instance, usually named self or cls. In this case your on_guild_post method doesn't have a self argument and a cog listener decorator
sullen nymph
I did literally give you an explanation but it seems to happen that you are not familiar with OOP in Python whatsoever
steady cove
well
sullen nymph
Add a fucking self argument to your function
sullen nymph
So like on_guild_post(self)
sullen nymph
It should be ingrained into you to the point where you do and notice it without realization
Yeah no shit
I said apply cog listener decorator
The event won't fire at all otherwise
sullen nymph
You people ever read documentation
steady cove
SORRY
sullen nymph
What does "on guild post" that doesn't even come from discord.py have to do with guild join or leave
sullen nymph
on_guild_post is an event that's emitted whenever dblpy's autopost posts a server count successfully every 30 minutes (if it's enabled)
sullen nymph
you would do autopost=True in the DBLClient parameters to enable it
heady cloak
like on_dbl_vote()
yeah I find it kind of confusing too, since they say that it should be inside the class one time but outside (as a bot event) another time
I need help with the API, regarding "test votes".
That feature is mentioned in the image (at https://top.gg/api/docs#webhooks).
But I cannot find a way to trigger a test vote... please help
rain heart
test votes are the votes you trigger with the test button on your bot page
There's 2 types of Votes: upvote (vote done through voting your bot on the page) and test (the test button)
heady cloak
There's 2 types of Votes: upvote (vote done through voting your bot on the page)...
where is the test button?
heady cloak
ooh thanks ill look into it
oh yeah i found it now thanks
@rain heart these are the parts i use to implement the api to my bot, but it does not work, did i miss something?
import dbl
class TopGG(commands.Cog):
def __init__(self, bot):
self.bot = bot
self.token = os.getenv("TOPGG_API_TOKEN")
self.dblpy = dbl.DBLClient(self.bot, self.token)
@bot.event
async def on_dbl_vote(data):
print(data)
can't help you, no clue of python
what is the ip you entered though? make sure it's not either 0.0.0.0 or localhost or 127.0.0.1
rain heart
dm me the url, i'll test it on my end with some test data
heady cloak
the url to what?
rain heart
the webhook
you have to enter your webhook url in your bot page settings
no wonder it doesn't work if you haven't done that
rain heart
The thing you seem to be doing now is listening to the event when someone votes. That is done through webhooks
the wrapper does not simply make that happen, you need to enter the webhook url inside your bot page
heady cloak
do I need a separate webhook or can I implement it into my bot?
rain heart
heady cloak
yeah i looked into that but I couldn't find anything about webhooks
rain heart
https://dblpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#client in order to use webhooks, the documentation mentions that you have to enter a webhook path and port
on the client initialisation
hollow arrow
!p klay
rain heart
you could set the path to something like /dblwehook and the port to 5050 for example
your webhook url should then be something like http://example.com:5050/dblwebhook
this is needed for getting new votes
heady cloak
oh so it's just an https request?
rain heart
that is what a webhook is, yeah
rain heart
the dplpy library creates a small webserver to listen to requests to that webhook, then fires your on_dbl_webhook or on_dbl_test_webhook when a request came through depending on what type of vote it is
rain heart
That shouldn't matter, unless you're using port 80 on your webhook of the bot
then it wouldn't work
heady cloak
okay so i have the library and I'm using it; how do I set or know what the path is?
heady cloak
https://mywebserver.ok/THISPART
rain heart
they're just on_dbl_test and on_dbl_vote
but you do need to enter a webhook url or no?
inside the bot page settings
rain heart
oh yeah
sullen nymph
SPECIFY YOUR FUCKING PORT AND AUTH
READ THE DOCS
thank you for coming to my TED talk
sullen nymph
webhook_port must be set in order for the webhook to actually run
The rest is for it to work as needed
heady cloak
But how do I know what to put here if I'm using the library and the library creates its own webserver with path
heady cloak
yes but what path?
sullen nymph
/dblwebhook
heady cloak
is that the exact default?
sullen nymph
mhm
heady cloak
thanks
sullen nymph
It's the default value to enter after ip:port (or domain) in the URL
heady cloak
and the port is 80?
sullen nymph
Whatever you set in webhook_port
heady cloak
class TopGG(commands.Cog):
def __init__(self, bot):
self.bot = bot
self.token = os.getenv("TOPGG_API_TOKEN")
self.dblpy = dbl.DBLClient(self.bot, self.token)
like this is my code
ooooh ok
sullen nymph
Pain, pain of existence
You haven't specified webhook_port and webhook_auth in your DBLClient
heady cloak
found in the docs, it's webhook_auth, webhook_path and webhook_port
heady cloak
yeah but the thing is i looked at another code snippet and they didn't say anything about this
sullen nymph
Ah, you looked on top.gg/api/docs?
heady cloak
maybe
sullen nymph
Or the github repo but wrong example
heady cloak
not github
sullen nymph
Yeah, then it's on the docs page on top.gg
That'll be reworked soon anyway so I'd suggest referring to the official dblpy docs (soon to be renamed officially to python-sdk possibly)
sullen nymph
Shard count is planned to be removed completely, but server count will stay afaik
mortal ore
so how to use the events?
heady cloak
alright sammy I will try to make a python snippet for this and i will tell you how to do it
mortal ore
ooh wow. Thank you very much.
heady cloak
alright i think i need help again, this isn't working
class TopGG(commands.Cog):
def __init__(self, bot):
self.bot = bot
self.token = os.getenv("TOPGG_API_TOKEN")
self.webhook_auth = os.getenv("TOPGG_AUTH")
self.dblpy = dbl.DBLClient(
self.bot,
self.token,
webhook_auth=self.webhook_auth
)
@bot.event
async def on_dbl_vote(data):
print("SOMEONE VOTED!")
@bot.event
async def on_dbl_test(data):
print("SOMEONE TESTED!")
this is my code
It's not printing anything during test, I don't know what to do...
mortal ore
wht is bot there?
heady cloak
?
mortal ore
is it the client u use for discord?
heady cloak
and it says port is optional and i guess the default is 80 because someone said that
yes
heady cloak
but it does not work...
mortal ore
but it does not work...
i had the same doubt, i tried similar ones as well
heady cloak
but i did actually try with a port
rain heart
`Optional`
optional in the sense of "If you do not use webhooks, you do not need to set it"
heady cloak
6000
rain heart
did you enter that port in the webhook url too?
heady cloak
did you enter that port in the webhook url too?
yes
rain heart
so for example http://example.com:6000/dblwebhook ?
heady cloak
yep
rain heart
remember that you can't use https by the way
heady cloak
i did
rain heart
try http if you always tried https
rain heart
because https then refers back to 443 and that just breaks it entirely
rain heart
make sure the path is correct
heady cloak
since this may be for the wrong webserver
rain heart
nah it's not
heady cloak
but i have 2
rain heart
look: http:// is always used for website stuff, if no port (in the sense of example.com**:6000**) is given, it will always refer to 80, your default webserver port as you know it
mortal ore
nah it's not
Do you know how to use the event references in python?
i tried many ways
none seem to work
rain heart
Nope, no clue about python i just understand docs
mortal ore
lmao
mortal ore
how many servers your bot is in (in total)?
rain heart
now it's not working again :(
What did you change
heady cloak
What did you change
i added the port 🐶
rain heart
to where? the webhook url?
heady cloak
yes
rain heart
dm me the url, I'll try testing it from my end
heady cloak
to my webhook?
heady cloak
i had 4000 before
rain heart
80 is occupied by your main page
set it to 5000 then maybe
because it just times out for me
heady cloak
80 is occupied by your main page
my mainpage is 8080
rain heart
does it say any errors in your console?
rain heart
I have no clue then 
heady cloak
oh
did you connect without a port?
then it connected to the main page
or the main webserver
so what can i set my main webserver's port to to make this work?
rain heart
main server does work
heady cloak
yes
rain heart
it just says Your bot name is alive
heady cloak
yeah
maybe i should just skip the whole client thing and use the main webserver instead
or delete the main webserver
it's a keepalive server
maybe i can delete the main webserver and just use the topgg webserver
YES
IT WORKS
FINALLY
rain heart
you just deleted the webserver and it worked?
heady cloak
yep
so that was a keepalive server
maybe i can just use the dbl server instead as a keepalive?
rain heart
probably yeah
worn vine
Is this code correct to show server count? Do I need to add something different?
client.on('ready', () => {
setInterval(() => {
dbl.postStats(client.guilds.cache.size);
}, 1800000);
});```did you set your token through const dbl = new DBL('Your top.gg token', client);?
worn vine
oh i forgot that
torpid compass
Could someone possibly assist me with setting up vote detection? So when someone votes it does something
I've been trying but It's not working
torpid compass
I made a webhook
do I have to put the link in there?
When I paste it in there it says its not designed for that
torpid compass
How do I do that
torpid compass
I did this and used the code
rain heart
Post what you're using
also, you need to add the url of it in your bot page settings afterwards
torpid compass
dbl.webhook.on('vote', vote => {
console.log(`${vote.user} has voted for Counter!`)
const webhook = new Discord.WebhookClient('id of webhook', 'webhook stuff here in code')
webhook.send(`${vote.user} has voted for me!`)
});
What do you mean by this?
rain heart
You need to add the url of your webhook
you started your webhook on a specific port
that port is used for sending requests to it
it most likely looks like http://example.com:5000/dblwebhook
just instead of example.com:5000 replacing it with your servers ip and the port you defined
torpid compass
Where can I find my servers IP? I use Heroku for my hosting
torpid compass
Okay, so If I were to get the IP for my server
I would then paste the URL into the webhook URL
and it would work?
rain heart
it should if you started the webhook correctly
if you followed the documentation correctly
torpid compass
lovely
uh okay, thanks for the help though <3
@rain heart is there a bot that's already made to detect votes?
torpid compass
okay thanks
timid dawn
lol just ping the url for the app
so like im running something
on heroku
if i ping
it
it pings as down because they keep ICMP off on their servers
but you can
so
if you
are
torpid compass
wait what
timid dawn
whats the url for your app?
torpid compass
For Heroku?
rain heart
how can I enable server count for my bot on top.gg
read pins/channel topic
timid dawn
you will see the url on the bottom of the build output you can see your newest or previous build in the activity section of your apps heroku dashboard
torpid compass
hang on let me find it
still shore
@rain heart Im pretty much confused about the api code , can you pls help me out btw Im hosting on glitch console
server count one **
rain heart
if you're confused with the documentations, then i cannot help you
Come back to it once you're able to understand documentations
still shore
you got it wrong
Im just saying I am confused about that server count one
Just sort me out pls
timid dawn
wheres the api docmented
bold socket
anyone knows any good sites that can help with the webhooks for notifications when a server gets a vote?
dense shale
define notification?
bold socket
like for example when someone votes a server, it'll send a message in a channel? or any other way so my bot can know that someone voted
dense shale
¯_(ツ)_/¯
torpid compass
read pins/channel topic
I have the IP for my server
do I put it like this
0.000.000.00:5000/dblwebhook
rain heart
instead of the 0.000.000.00 your servers ip then
torpid compass
yes
sinful current
Hello
rose pawn
nocturne magnet
i need some help with the server count thing for pyhton
im unsure if the count is actually going there
it isnt
can you help me fix that?
class Topgg(commands.Cog):
"""Handles interactions with the top.gg API"""
def __init__(self, client):
self.client = client
self.token = 'mytoken' # set this to your DBL token
self.dblpy = dbl.DBLClient(self.client, self.token, autopost=True) # Autopost will post your guild count every 30 minutes
async def on_guild_post(self):
print("Server count posted successfully on DBL")
def setup(client):
client.add_cog(Topgg(client))
@slim storm
i did
im not getting errors
so whats wrong?
like
i followed the tut
the Doc
self.token = 'mytoken' # set this to your DBL token
yep
in my token
just dont wanna leak that
yes
the doc uses bot
these are im imports ```
import dbl
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
no :/
my bot was online all night last night and all of today
no post yet :/
no :/
thats the thing
ive even reloaded the cog
sullen nymph
Add the cog listener decorator
sullen nymph
I'm really starting to question whether maintaining dblpy was a good idea
Really though
Use the commands.Cog.listener decorator, apply it to your on_guild_post function
nocturne magnet
class Topgg(commands.Cog):
"""Handles interactions with the top.gg API"""
def __init__(self, client):
self.client = client
self.token = 'mytoken' # set this to your DBL token
self.dblpy = dbl.DBLClient(self.client, self.token, autopost=True) # Autopost will post your guild count every 30 minutes
commands.Cog.listener():
async def on_guild_post(self):
print("Server count posted successfully on DBL")
def setup(client):
client.add_cog(Topgg(client))
like this?
so
yes no?
acoustic dove
You don't know what a decorator is
Look it up and you'll understand what to put there
nocturne magnet
i did look it up
but
im am still confused :/
can you help
please
@sullen nymph @acoustic dove
sullen nymph
What is a decorator
acoustic dove
nocturne magnet
aghhhhhhhhhhhhhh
acoustic dove
nocturne magnet
im just confused
acoustic dove
Then maybe find out what a decorator is
acoustic dove
Get what?
acoustic dove
Yeah because you're missing basic knowledge
acoustic dove
If you look at the links I sent, you will definitely have your answer
nocturne magnet
this is frustrating
nocturne magnet
this right
acoustic dove
sigh
acoustic dove
Just try it
nocturne magnet
i did
acoustic dove
And..?
acoustic dove
what do you have
