[smoky marten]

Create a webhook server
Save Date.now() when someone votes in db
then Fetch it
like

...
//Webhook on vote: (vote) => {
  db.set(vote.user, Date.now())
...

Later

lastVote = db.get(user.id)

[mortal herald]

I'm using the dotnet SDK to update the server count but it hasn't been updating for the last month or so. No errors or anything. Can anyone help me troubleshoot?

[sly rain]

date.now()

Date.now()

whut?

db.get ( @sly rain )

how to????

???????

[vagrant lava]

is #site-status also effecting the API?

[spark bronze]

[willow sphinx]

@modern crown yo my man I think your bot is querying stats in a while loop I don't think you need to send 22k request to your stats endpoint in 30 mins

[rain heart]

Inb4 that's the root cause of the site going brr

[ashen heron]

The sites getting ddosed regularly isn't it?

[rain heart]

Can't actually disclose why it is going down, sorry

Would definitely do if I can

[mortal herald]

For every GuildJoined and GuildLeave event trigger

[willow sphinx]

hahah no, it's all blocked by cloudflare but I saw it while checking up

TopGGAPIError: 400 Bad Request

?

[half onyx]

O

[smoky marten]

Your request was invalid

[latent narwhal]

The webhook just keeps sending test requests?

[smoky marten]

maybe you clicked many times

now they're arriving at once

[torpid gust]

Can you help me on top.gg Apis

[sullen nymph]

Can we?

[restive otter]

My bot is in 26 server :)

what is the problem ?

[rain heart]

Servercount posted first an hour ago

Just wait

For autoposter to fire again

[restive otter]

okay

const DBL = require("top.gg");
const dbl = new DBL('token', {
    webhookPort: 2381,
    webhookAuth: 'What should i pass here?',
  client
  });```

[restive otter]

top.gg is not the official module

and its a password you choose

[restive otter]

what's the official

[restive otter]

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

ty

[restive otter]

const webhook = new Topgg.Webhook('topggauth123')```

top.gg token?

or Authorization

[smoky marten]

auth token
you set it at Webhook page of your bot

[restive otter]

Webhook URL ?

[smoky marten]

no

the next one

Authorization

[smoky marten]

Auth == Authorization

[restive otter]

yes i did

[smoky marten]

then it should be working

[restive otter]

app.post('/dblwebhook', webhook.listener(vote => {
  console.log(vote)
}))

app.listen(3000)

not logging anything when send a test

[smoky marten]

what did you put at Webhook URL ?

[restive otter]

in the website?

[smoky marten]

yes

[restive otter]

what should i put :)

there's a link

[smoky marten]

.....

[restive otter]

but i don't know what is it for

[smoky marten]

bruh

[restive otter]

it was about a year ago

[smoky marten]

put something like
http://<Your_IP_Address>:3000/dblwebhook
example:
http://69.69.69.69:3000/dblwebhook

from the official docs

[restive otter]

http://69.69.69.69:3000/dblwebhook
this look good

[restive otter]

do i have to put topgg token anywhere?
cause still not working

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

const app = express(); 

const webhook = new Topgg.Webhook('theAuth'); 

app.post('/dblwebhook', webhook.listener(vote => {
  console.log(vote) 
}))

app.listen(3000) 

\

[smoky marten]

no ?
the code is fine
if you set up the server the way I said then it's fine too

where're you hosting/running the code ?

[restive otter]

i did it somehow, ty

[smoky marten]

oh that's good

[lost thorn]

why am i getting a 401 unauthorized for trying to check if someone has voted.

the token im using is correct

im using the .hasVoted() method of java library

[jaunty plank]

i dont think the java library currently works

no ones currently maintaining it

[whole crystal]

i'm also getting 401 unauthorized, was anything changed recently?

not using any wrapper

lmao im posting to https://discordbots.org/api/bots/454145330347376651/stats, that's probably the issue

[sullen nymph]

Didn't Faith take over

[teal nymph]

how can i get last vote date ?

[rain heart]

by tracking it yourself using webhooks

the api does not provide that information

[willow sphinx]

what the hell why does it say official module

[restive otter]

lmao

[rain heart]

time to sue

[sullen nymph]

Been like that for years now

Lovely isn't it

[restive otter]

Sup!

Is https://npmjs.com/topgg-autoposter the official stats uploader for top gg?

[restive otter]

yes

Okay thanks

[weak fiber]

Play

[willow sphinx]

not official

[stone cobalt]

Good day, its been about 2 weeks since i got informed that it might take about 2 weeks for my bot to appear in the search index....still nothing. Any news on the matter?

[strange tangle]

you do have the bot dev role tho

[restive otter]

[restive otter]

Can my Discord bot use a few vote locked commands with the Top.GG API? That's allowed right?

I know how to do it but it's allowed right?

yes

Okay

[obtuse relic]

X

🖕

🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

[teal nymph]

botInfo.points is total votes or reset each month?

[smoky marten]

monthlyPoints is monthly
points is total

[rain heart]

As long as you're not votelocking the majority of features/the entirety of your bot

[restive otter]

Oh okay, thanks

[rain heart]

Hm not sure what your issue is, could you please state it

[restive otter]

When i vote my bot it sent the vote message 3 times

[rain heart]

Are you properly responding to the webhook requests? Read the docs about retrial

[restive otter]

As you see i do?

[rain heart]

It seems like you're only logging it

Or are you using the webhook from topgg sdk

Then idk, perhaps some proxy sending the vote multiple times?

[restive otter]

Yes logging it does it one time not three
I get this webhoom from my bot's topgg page
It happened just one time probably topgg errored at that time

[reef void]

how do i make it for ex if someone votes my bot it will send a message in the channel with the webhook attached

mine isn't working 🤔

[jaunty plank]

Like using discord webhooks directly?

Topgg webhooks do not work with discord webhooks directly

[reef void]

oh

How do i make it like that then

[jaunty plank]

You can use third party services, such as vote tracker(a bot) or https://webhook-topgg.com/

[reef void]

its safe right?

[jaunty plank]

Both should be safe

[reef void]

is it on 24/7?

[jaunty plank]

Well, full disclosure I'm the dev for webhook-topgg.com

The backend uses cloudflare workers which means serverless and theoretically zero downtime.

In practice it can be down for a few seconds at a time, but it generally comes up while retrial ends.
https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/#retrial

Vote tracker is also pretty reliable afaik.

[reef void]

okay then

thats great

thank you

[rain heart]

eh still made by someone not developing Top.gg

so considered a 3rd party

[jaunty plank]

I'm free to do what I want with it too

[mossy drift]

hey woo its me ocryol but in another account, how can i make like a vote only command

for example

if i want to use the play command

it would say

to use this command please vote the bot and bla bla bla

how can i do that in top.gg

[smoky marten]

HOW TO CREATE VOTE ONLY COMMANDS WITH TOP.GG

#1 Create a webhook server

• For topggpy (Python): https://dblpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#topgg.WebhookManager.dbl_webhook
• For @topgg/sdk (NodeJS) :
  https://topgg.js.org/#webhook-server
• If you're one of the zero dependency people: https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/

#2 When someone votes:

• Save their id
• And probably time
• Maybe log the user's id / name in the terminal or send a dm to thank them
• idk use your creativity

#3 When someone uses the premium commands:

• Check if the user has voted before (from database)
  • if the user has voted before but More than 12 / 24 hours ago
    • Tell him to vote again
  • if the user has never voted in his entire life
    • Give him a more explaining error like "pwease vote to uwuse the cowommand uwu"
  • else execute the command

Here's an implementation of JavaScript: https://gist.github.com/moyshik7/6d61e5a5c4307038103a769b137c50eb

If you're lazy as hell and don't know how to code also can't hire anyone to do your stuff
Go to https://webhook-topgg.com
Does not require coding at all

[rain heart]

Why not lmao

Could you perhaps also include a section on there for people that just want logging (including the webhooksgg thing by woo there)

plz vote to uwuse cowommand uwu

[restive otter]

Hello, I have been getting this error for several weeks, I changed the token many times, but the error did not go away, can you help?

opGGAPIError: 401 Unauthorized (You need a token for this endpoint)

    }
  }
}

[rain heart]

have you refreshed the page after regenerating the token?

[mossy drift]

do you know anyone that has done it on discord.py im not very good with databases and json stuff

[rain heart]

you can simply use the json package on python, not that difficult to get started with

https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html

haven't worked on databases myself yet, only sqlite ones in context of work

[mossy drift]

Im just getting the hang of discord.py i haven't really done any advanced stuff

and the thing

seems pretty advanced

[restive otter]

yes

[rain heart]

regenerate
refresh the page
copy the new token
paste it in

do that now

[smoky marten]

Like dm the user when they votes or like send a message to a channel/ maybe log in terminal ? ?

[subtle lily]

Cf

[plucky imp]

im not getting webhook token option

[random zenith]

where can I find the receiving payload of the webhooks?

[golden adder]

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/#bot-webhooks

[random zenith]

how exactly is the data structured as a JSON array?

[golden adder]

It's explained in the link I sent

The structure is in the docs

[random zenith]

is it just as I can assume

{
"bot":botID,
"user":userID,
"type":"type",
"isWeekend":true,
"query":"query"
}```

?

[golden adder]

Yes

[random zenith]

alright

[golden adder]

You can just listen to the port, log any received payloads and use the test button on the webhooks page to see an example webhook in console.

[random zenith]

np, thanks for the info

[golden adder]

No problem!

[lethal sand]

When configuring Webhook in code, does the "/dblwebhook" stay like that or should I replace it with my Webhook URL?

example: topgg.WebhookManager(self.bot).dbl_webhook("/dblwebhook"

[jaunty plank]

@lethal sand that field is for webhook path, not the url.

/dblwebhook would be the path

[lethal sand]

Is /dblwebhook setup somewhere or does it need to be configured somewhere?

[restive otter]

{"error":"Unexpected token s in JSON at position 0"}

Why am I getting this error when trying to send server count data?

[grim igloo]

is there an example response on what the vote returns?

right here?

[jaunty plank]

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/#bot-webhooks

[grim igloo]

oh ty lol

[rain heart]

your response likely has some non json data

[mortal herald]

suddenly I'm getting this error when executing Task<IDblSelfBot> GetMeAsync()

it was working an hour ago and nothing has changed

[rain heart]

Site is down

That's why

[mortal herald]

thanks

Any Python engineers available?

[lethal sand]

My webhook question. I’ve tried every variation of the webhook documentation I could think of for topggpy but it’s not working

I tagged but it’s this question

“Could I have some assistance in configuring topggpy webhook api for my bot? I have the webhook working on top.gg and the tests are sending the vote message to the proper channel. But, the topggpy configuration for the webhook isn't working.”

[river summit]

Hey, I am using a raspberry pi to host my bot, and I want to receive votes. The API says I need to configure a webhook server, but I have no idea what to put there. Can someone help me?

[smoky marten]

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks

[river summit]

thank you!

is there also a structure to just check the existing votes of a user rather than using a listener?

[smoky marten]

there is

but noone suggests using that

[river summit]

why not?

[smoky marten]

https://docs.top.gg/api/bot/#individual-user-vote

[river summit]

the problem is that i don't want to automatically do something when a user votes, i want to wait for the user to claim that they voted, and then check if they actually did

[smoky marten]

IDK
It sometimes stops working
out of nowhere

[river summit]

i see

[smoky marten]

• you might get ratelimites

[river summit]

so i guess i have to cache the votes and then check the cache

[river summit]

do the ratelimits also apply to the listeners?

[smoky marten]

why cache ?
just save in a database

[smoky marten]

you mean webhooks?
NO

[river summit]

i mean i could. that's just a lot more things to store considering i won't need it all

[river summit]

okay, good

[smoky marten]

[river summit]

my problem with this right now is that it's missing the javascript structure. i know how to make a new Autoposter and a new Webhook based on the two examples given, but how do i make the basic client from which i can request individual users?

[smoky marten]

you can try using the js library

[river summit]

what?

that didn't answer my question

[smoky marten]

https://topgg.js.org/classes/Api.html#hasVoted

[river summit]

ah great, thats what i was looking for

[smoky marten]

[river summit]

Start by setting up your webhook URL in the edit form of your bot on this site
My problem is that i don't know what webhook URL to put there if i have a raspberry pi or my home computer that I am running this from

can someone help me with this? what do i put for the Webhook URL?

i am so lost :(

Can anyone help me? I really don't know what to do

@smoky marten you've been so much help so far, do you have another second to spare?

[jaunty salmon]

Then it’s your IP address that you are referring to

(If you don’t own a server or something else)

[river summit]

ok, but the URL example was:
http://your.server.ip:80/dblwebhook
do i just choose a random port? what about the path, is that also not important?

[jaunty salmon]

If that was the recommended port, try to use it. As far as I know, the docs state which ports you can use

[rain heart]

Also when using 80, no need to provide a port

[river summit]

what does that mean?

[rain heart]

http:// is 80 by default when not providing a port

[river summit]

oh so i can just listen to 80

and then it'll be fine

[rain heart]

If that port is already used, then no

[river summit]

what about the path after the IP? do i have to set up something there?

[rain heart]

Also perhaps use a non privileged port (above 1024)

[jaunty salmon]

“The port must be a number between 1024 and 49151.”

[river summit]

oh okay

okay wait so

first of all, how do i know if a port is used

second of all, what about the path after the port

[jaunty salmon]

Try and see

Have you even read the docs?

[river summit]

i tried to

but im not experienced with servers

im using this site https://topgg.js.org/classes/webhook

its just not giving me a whole lot of info

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/

this site i dont understand at all

it says:

Start by setting up your webhook URL in the edit form of your bot on this site
but this doesn't answer my questions

[jaunty salmon]

Don’t wanna sound rude or something but than this shouldn’t be your starting point 😅
I remember that someone had a webhook page for Top.gg though

[river summit]

its telling me a lot about schemas and formats and acknowledgements etc after i already put in a URL

[jaunty salmon]

https://webhook-topgg.com/

[river summit]

well, i already have a whole bot and everything that is working fine for over a year. i just wanna get votes working right now

[jaunty salmon]

Where do you host your bot?

[river summit]

on a raspberry pi

[jaunty salmon]

Well, as we stated: Start by just giving your IP and the port, send out a test vote and see if it works

That’s step by step work :)

[river summit]

people back then told me that my first programming project shouldn't be a discord bot, but it worked out fine after i learned it all. you can't learn if you don't try. i just don't know how servers and such work, but that doesn't mean i can't learn it if i have the right resource

[rain heart]

I really suggest you looking into the very basics of networking in http if you're really confused by that process

https://sendgrid.com/blog/whats-webhook/

[river summit]

ah right, next question: how do i send a test vote? i already voted normally, i saw something mentioned about testvoting, how do i do that?

[jaunty salmon]

It’s on the Top.gg bot page. “Edit” your bot and you’ll see the corresponding category

[river summit]

and if i just put an ip and a port, what do i put in app.post()? in the docs they put /dblwebhook but if i dont put that in my webhook URL, i don't know if that'll just work

[jaunty salmon]

“/dblwebhook” is the only thing you put there, if I remember correctly

[river summit]

can you give me some directions? i don't know why i can't find it. it's not under "votes" there it just tells me about credits

[river summit]

but then i also have to put that in my webhook URL, right?

[jaunty salmon]

“Webhooks”?

[river summit]

i still don't see a testvote button

[jaunty salmon]

Show me the page

[jaunty salmon]

Yes, because you haven’t filled out all those things yet

Insert them as the site states

[river summit]

ah, i see. thanks

[jaunty salmon]

The Authorization can be something that you choose it to be

[river summit]

yes, so far i've gathered

well, so far the test didnt work

https://ipaddress:3000/dblwebhook
replace ip address with my computers ip address on which i am running this test code:

const app = express();
const wh = new Topgg.Webhook('webhookauth123');

app.post('/dblwebhook', wh.listener(async vote => {
    console.log(vote);
}));

app.listen(3000);```

yes, my authentication is webhookauth123 (for now)

[fluid venture]

ig u can use localhost for testing 🤔

[river summit]

https://localhost:3000/dblwebhook ?

[fluid venture]

yea

for testing

[river summit]

no changes

[fluid venture]

wot error/problem u getting?

[river summit]

nothing

it's just not responding

[fluid venture]

did u fill out all of these?

[river summit]

yes

URL is https://localhost:3000/dblwebhook
auth is webhookauth123

Code is ```js
const app = express();
const wh = new Topgg.Webhook('webhookauth123');

app.post('/dblwebhook', wh.listener(async vote => {
console.log(vote);
}));

app.listen(3000);```

[fluid venture]

u saved the changes on the page right?

[river summit]

yes

saved, then restarted the bot

[fluid venture]

express is integrated in/with the bot folder/files?

[river summit]

via npm i express, then const express = require('express');

[fluid venture]

where are u initializing the express?

[river summit]

at the top of the file

[fluid venture]

i mean

const app = express()
app.post()
app.listen()

these things?

[river summit]

well i have this all in a voteshandler file, that is initialized from within my discord ready listener

[fluid venture]

hmm

[river summit]

so once the bot is ready, it initializes this file which then starts const app = express(), app.post() app.listen() etc

[fluid venture]

yea

[river summit]

before that is the Autoposter, that one works fine

[fluid venture]

🤔

idk then

[river summit]

hm thats unfortunate

[fluid venture]

can u show ur ready code? and the votehandler file code

[river summit]

im still confused about the whole port and path thing so maybe i did something wrong there

[fluid venture]

like whole file

[river summit]

yes, hold on a second

        // In this situation, your TopGG Webhook dashboard should look like
        // URL = http://your.server.ip:80/dblwebhook
        // Authorization: webhookauth123

        const topApi = new Topgg.Api(client.votes.top);


    },
};```

apologies for the messiness of the votes js haha, im just trying to figure it out for now and remove the mess later

[fluid venture]

hmm

[river summit]

looks fine to you?

i suspect that i did something wrong with the whole webhookURL thing

since this is the only part that im not getting

[fluid venture]

i cant really figure out too

[river summit]

are you sure that https://localhost:3000/dblwebhook in the webhook URL field would work?

[fluid venture]

was working for me

[river summit]

if not, do i put my ip4 address, right?

[fluid venture]

like i just did this

const { Listener } = require("discord-akairo");
const express = require('express');

class Ready extends Listener {
  constructor() {
    super("ready", {
      emitter: "client",
      event: "ready",
    });
  }

  exec() {
    console.log(`Yuna is Ready! Guilds: ${this.client.guilds.cache.size}`);
    this.client.user.setActivity("prefix: y!", { type: "LISTENING" })
    let app = express();
    app.use('/webhook', require('../routes/webhook'));
    const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
    app.listen(PORT, () => console.log(`Server started at Port ${PORT}`));
  }
}

module.exports = Ready;
``` ignore the handler

and it worked for me

[river summit]

should i add the console log to the app.listen as well to see if thats working?

[fluid venture]

sure ig u can try

[river summit]

it does send server started

so does this completely ensures us that the webhook URL on the server has nothing to do with this?

with the wh.listener, it for sure sends something when i send test?

[fluid venture]

wym

[river summit]

why do you use app.use instead of app.post?

[fluid venture]

i am just requiring the file

express routers

this is my other file

const express = require('express');
const router = express.Router();
const Topgg = require('@top-gg/sdk');
const config = require('../config.json');
const userSchema = require('../schemas/userSchema');
const { client } = require('../index');

const webhook = new Topgg.Webhook(config.topggAuth);

router.post('/', webhook.listener(async vote => {
    await userSchema.findOneAndUpdate({userId: vote.user }, {
        $inc: {
            souls: 1
        }
    })
    const guild = client.guilds.cache.get("923658805789741096");
    const channel = guild.channels.cache.get("937905372692353056");
    const member = client.users.cache.get(vote.user);
    await channel.send(`${member.tag} Thank you for voting.`)
}))

module.exports = router;

[river summit]

i was suggesting that maybe the webhookURL i saved on top.gg was faulty. but if app.listen reacts to the port, does this ensure that this is not a mistake with the webhookURL?

[fluid venture]

the webhookUrl and port are unrelated tho

[fluid venture]

o wait

u gotta

use

http

not https

[river summit]

the thing is, i am running this via a testbot rather than via the actual bot, but i dont see how that could be the issue? since it doesn't ask me for the client anywhere

[river summit]

oh

[fluid venture]

💀

[river summit]

still doesnt work

[fluid venture]

bruhga

[river summit]

force of habit lmao

[fluid venture]

idk then

[river summit]

odd stuff

[fluid venture]

ig localhost doesnt work then try putting ur ip

[river summit]

i did already

[fluid venture]

with http only

it was https before

tho

[river summit]

yeah i did with http

[fluid venture]

not working?

[river summit]

http://192.168.x.xxx:3210/webhook censored because yk

the tests are not coming through

yes i changed the thing from dblwebhook to webhook in my code and the port from 3000 to 3210

[fluid venture]

did u changed the route in both page and express app?

[river summit]

yes

[fluid venture]

ah

oki

[river summit]

app.post('/webhook', wh.listener(async vote => {
    console.log('test');
}));

app.listen(3210);```

[fluid venture]

hmm idk then 💀

skill issue fr

[river summit]

my app is just built different

[smoky marten]

use your public ip
not private one

[river summit]

where do i find that

DNS4?

[smoky marten]

idk
try ifconfig or something

reference

[river summit]

https://www.whatismypublicip.com/ should show the right one, right?

[smoky marten]

https://www.whatsmyip.org/

It came from Google search

[river summit]

yes

that still doesnt work

[smoky marten]

ff

[river summit]

http://publicip:3210/webhook

app.listen uses 3210

app.post uses /webhook

[smoky marten]

I ran part of your code myself and it worked somehow

[river summit]

so

it is my webhook URL

?

i mean it must be

test

i cant send my message

ok im posting everything again:

const bfd = require('bfd-api-redux');
const { AutoPoster } = require('topgg-autoposter');
const Topgg = require('@top-gg/sdk');
const express = require('express');

module.exports = {
    execute(client) {

        AutoPoster(client.votes.top, client);

        // first, create the webhook (this requires a URL that i don't have):

        const app = express();
        const wh = new Topgg.Webhook('1234');

        app.post('/webhook', wh.listener(async vote => {
            console.log('test');
            // vote is your vote object e.g
            console.log(vote);
            // replace client.votes.top.users[userid] with this newest vote
            // later, this could be checked to see if this user has voted recently. if its empty, then do a manual check:

            // await client.votes.api.hasVoted(userid)
            // => true or false
        }));

        app.listen(3210);
        // In this situation, your TopGG Webhook dashboard should look like
        // URL = http://your.server.ip:80/dblwebhook
        // Authorization: webhookauth123

        // const topApi = new Topgg.Api(client.votes.top);
        // client.votes.top = topApi;
    },
};```


in top.gg settings:
Webhook URL: http://xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3210/webhook replace xxx's with ip from https://www.whatsmyip.org/
Authorization: 1234

now

ok question

if this is my code:

app.post('/', (req, res) => {
    console.log('POST Request Called');
});

app.listen(3000);

app.get('*', function(req, res) {
    res.status(200).send('ok');
});```

and i got to http://localhost:3000/

then i see "ok" on the website, like i should

but shouldn't this send POST Request Called

if i do
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000
in my terminal

it does send that console log

but if i configure top.gg to send to http://localhost:3000, it doesn't work

anyone?

[wet ledge]

Can anyone give me a sample code in python of how to check if someone just voted the bot? Thanks

[river summit]

im literally so lost

can someone maybe go in a vc with me and do this step by step?

really wanna fix this but i have no idea what to do

or like, help me in some other way, idk

anyone, please

[river summit]

im pretty sure i am not inputting the correct IP address into the webhookURL, but i'm not sure what to put there

i have the following code:

app.post('*', () => {
    console.log('test');
});

app.listen(3000);

app.get('*', function(req, res) {
    res.status(200).send('ok');
});

[fluid venture]

localhost should work tho

it was working for me

[river summit]

visiting http://localhost:3000 or my local IP4 address gives me the site with the content ip

it also sends "test" as a console log

opening a terminal and writing curl -X POST http://localhost:3000 gives the same result

it outputs ok into the terminal, and console logs "test"

[fluid venture]

https://github.com/top-gg/python-sdk/tree/master/examples

[river summit]

so if i write http://localhost:3000 as the webhookURL and do click the "send test" button, shouldnt this also console log "test"?

can someone test if this works?

@fluid venture , am i correct with my assumptions here?

literally everything works other than these stupid webhooks

[plucky lance]

No. Localhost is just an alias for your local machine.

[river summit]

so what do i have to put there?

[plucky lance]

You need to enter the public IP(v4/6) of the system you’re running your code on

[river summit]

that also didnt work though.

also, why can't i do curl with my public ip4 address?

[plucky lance]

When ordering something in the ‘net you can’t say ship it to ‘here’ instead you need to tell them your exact address or the parcel will never arrive

[river summit]

yes, alright, i figured, glitter just told me that that would work too

nevertheless, my code isn't working.

[plucky lance]

Your router needs to support ‘hair pinning’ in order to be able to resolve your own public IP address for internal requests (requests from inside your LAN)

[river summit]

how do i enable that?

[plucky lance]

Yeah he’s fatally wrong on that

[plucky lance]

You can’t most cheap consumer hardware doesn’t support that

But that’s not your issue

[river summit]

so do i try from a device that isn't connected to my LAN?

[plucky lance]

You need to add a rule in the firewall for the incoming request from topgg for the port you specified

[river summit]

the routers firewall?

[plucky lance]

And secondly tell your router to forward the request on that port to your local device

If the router supports port forwarding

[river summit]

it does

hopefully i can figure it out

[plucky lance]

These are the downsides of hosting at home

[river summit]

thanks for the advice though

that was very useful

and sounds like its the issue

[plucky lance]

I assume you’re running the code on a Windows PC?

[river summit]

no

Linux

[plucky lance]

Check the default policy for INBOUND connections

[river summit]

right now its manjaro for testing, but later it will be sent to my raspberry pi where it's running on raspberry pi OS

[river summit]

where do i do that?

[plucky lance]

Is it a CLI based OS or GUI?

[river summit]

GUI

[plucky lance]

Errr oof you gotta need to google then

Not Sure about it then

But make sure the router forwards requests on port XX to this local device at first before continuing

[river summit]

and for some reason i cant enter my routers settings

it doesnt load the page

[plucky lance]

Port type is TCP

[river summit]

works fine on my phone lmfao

[river summit]

thakns

[plucky lance]

Probably an unsupported browser on your PC then

[river summit]

firefox?

[plucky lance]

Most router GUIs I saw are cheaply built out of JS or Lua or php

[plucky lance]

Hmm ok that’s weird then

But if it works on your phone… then choose that way

[river summit]

im opening it on firefox on my phone too xD

so thats kinda funny

[plucky lance]

Hmm lol

[river summit]

alright, i have arrived at the "Port activation" site of my router settings

[plucky lance]

The router may also tell you your public IP address, if not you can also get it from here:

https://icanhazip.com

[river summit]

yes i already have it :)

im not sure how to add the rule to the firewall

[plucky lance]

Ok now add a new rule for your TCP port to forward requests to your local device

You will have to choose the local device from a list or need to enter its local IP

Which is different from router to router

[plucky lance]

You got port forwarding set up already?

[river summit]

no no

the ip

[river summit]

im honestly unsure what to put there

this is how it looks right now

i know the ip address from topgh

[plucky lance]

Which port did you choose in your code?

[river summit]

does it go in the second field?

[river summit]

3000, that one?

[plucky lance]

No that second field is a port range

You just need that single port

[river summit]

i chose 3000 in my code

[plucky lance]

Then enter 3000 once on both sides

[river summit]

both the 80 sides?

or 3000-3000 ?

[plucky lance]

That’s the port coming from outside and the forwarded port inside

[river summit]

wait so where do i put the 3000

i have three fields

[plucky lance]

Nope just 3000 on both sides bot 3000-3000

[river summit]

x-y -> z

[plucky lance]

Replace the 80

[river summit]

alright, replaced the two 80s

[plucky lance]

You can specify a source IP of the request but you don’t need to

If you want to the topgg IP can be found in the docs

[river summit]

now i need to make an exception in the firewall

for topggs ip

right?

[plucky lance]

Yes or any source on that port

It’s up to you

It’s not really a security issue to open this port with just your code reacting to it

[river summit]

wait wait wait

are we still talking about the port forwarding

or about the firewall

[plucky lance]

now i need to make an exception in the firewall

[river summit]

yea ok

i cant even find the settings for that

[plucky lance]

Did you restrict port forwarding for a specific IP?

[river summit]

no

[plucky lance]

Okay

[river summit]

this is how it looks

i wouldnt even know how to do that

[plucky lance]

Hmm doesn’t seem to be supported by your router anyways

[river summit]

i dont think firewall settings are supported either

or could that setting be under a more specific name?

actually

this seemed to have done it

i just sent a test

and it went through

so just the port activation was enough

thank you! you are a life saver

[plucky lance]

Alright I’m back

Ahh okay

Looks like your default inbound policy isn’t drop then on your device

[plucky lance]

Keep in mind that your public IP can change, some ISPs cycle them every 24h

You will have to reenter the right one on topgg then if this happens

[river summit]

true, there was a setting for that. is there some way i can automate this?

[plucky lance]

If you haven’t a static IP then no

But you can get in use of a dynamic hostname

aka dyndns

If your router supports sending its current IP address to a service provider which gives you hostname as target

But that’s once more something you need to figure out if your router supports that

Can’t tell you that unfortunately

I mean there are also apps doing it for you you can install on your system

[river summit]

the only thing i found so far is dynamic port activations

[plucky lance]

But in general I would recommend to move that code to an actual server instead of hosting it at home

[plucky lance]

Nah that’s something completely different tho

[river summit]

the problem is that this is much cheaper for me

[river summit]

yeah i know

dynamic dns

[plucky lance]

Yeah but you have to live with the down sides then

[river summit]

that is supported

[plucky lance]

Yes

[river summit]

yes, it is what it is. im running on a budget

do i have to make an account at dyndns?

[plucky lance]

Omg a speedport

[river summit]

yes

german moment

[plucky lance]

There are bad routers, very bad router, a long time nothing and then finally Telecom routers

[river summit]

i know

they are terrible

nothing but issues

my internet is dropping half the time

but oh well

[plucky lance]

Check the list of dyndns providers

[plucky lance]

Most are free but require you to verify your account every 30d or so

[river summit]

as long as i get a reminder per mail i dont mind

[plucky lance]

You simply register an account, set up a domain name, enter the credentials in your router and that’s it

[river summit]

which one do you recommend?

[plucky lance]

Replace the entered IP on topgg with the hostname you selected

I think they all practice the same

If have used dyndns 10y ago

it works which is all what matters I guess

But I can’t tell you which one offers service longer without paying or reminder emails

[river summit]

true

[plucky lance]

I think picking dyndns or no-ip are the best options here

You read through their websites

Alright be right back, need to cook something or I will die

[river summit]

yeah i also just got done cooking. thank you so much for your help!

[plucky lance]

Np

[river summit]

Everything seems to work perfectly 👍

[plucky lance]

Great!

[mossy drift]

how can i make a vote only command in python

if anyone has made it or knows how to (step by step)

please message me

[smoky marten]

you've already asked the same thing a few times already
asking it again won't make anyone code it for you

I already told you how to do it tho
#topgg-api message

[mossy drift]

yeah i've asked a few times but i tried doing it, and gave me errors

thats why im asking for help again

if it wasn't giving me errors

i wouldn't go ask people again

but im getting loads of errors

[smoky marten]

just say what errors you get
instead of can anyone help me

[mossy drift]

Got it 👍

[white epoch]

How can I get the bot api? can you help me?

[restive otter]

https://docs.top.gg

[urban edge]

Have the issues with the java 401 been resolved yet?

[restive otter]

what

[white epoch]

I can not enter the site

site gives 404 error

I don't understand how to get the api

[plucky lance]

Then clear your browser cache or use a different browser

The docs don’t throw a 404

[fringe edge]

So I’m using Express and @surreal seal-gg/ask for my voting logger and I wanna use localhost but thing is that won’t work because localhost won’t work when i input into the webhook url box, so what url should i use?

[plucky lance]

Your public IP address of the system you’re running that code on

You will also require port forwarding most likely when hosting at home if I understood you right

You can get more details any following the latest explanation

#topgg-api message

[lethal sand]

If I make an API call to see if a user voted for my bot I get an voter json with 0 or 1 in response. Is there a way I can make a call to get streak data as well?

[restive otter]

youll do that yourself by using webhooks

[fringe edge]

yeah since my url rn for my host at home is http://localhost:1234 and since localhost won’t work for the thing, and if i understood you i would need my public IP wifi? in formatted like this for the url http://ip.ip.ip:1234

or would i need my computers public IP

[plucky lance]

The public IP of your LAN devices are all the same as you’re in the same network

You can get your public IP from here

https://icanhazip.com

But as I said you will probably need to tell your router to forward the port 1234 to your local device as this doesn’t happen by default

At least not for this port

[lapis maple]

bot.topgg_webhook = topgg.WebhookManager(bot).dbl_webhook("/dblwebhook", "password")
do i just type "password" there or what should i type?

[empty urchin]

"topgg-autoposter" is recording the servers of a single shard what should I do?

[smoky marten]

add the code in all shards

or do it manually idk

[empty urchin]

I made shard.fetchValues("guilds.cache.size") from inside the module file

.then() et cetera

when is it renewed? @smoky marten

ee this is broken i guess 😄

[smoky marten]

probably every hour

Also I guess you need a verified bot for that

[restive otter]

        const app = express();
        const parser = bodyParser.json();
        app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
        app.use(parser);

        app.get('/', function(_req, res) {
            res.send('App is running');
        });

        app.post(`/${this.path}`, parser, (req) => {
            const data = {
                bot: req.body.bot || null,
                user: req.body.user || null,
                query: req.body.query || [],
                isWeekend: req.body.isWeekend || false,
            };

            callback(data);
        });
        app.listen(this.port);```
pretty sure it isn't me sending POST request to the set URL in top.gg

the path on the url is actively used even though i pressed "Test" once

also yes the server IP is 159.203.105.187 so it's top.gg

[wet ledge]

Can anyone help me? I try this but it did not work

from discord.ext import commands, tasks
import topgg
from config import *

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.client = bot

    async def on_dbl_vote(self, data):
        """An event that is called whenever someone votes for the bot on top.gg."""
        print("Received an upvote:", "\n", data)

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

[rain heart]

Check the docs about retrial

[empty urchin]

thanks 🙂

[lethal sand]

Webhooks are the only way to check vote streaks in topgg api?

[jaunty plank]

youll need to track streaks yourself using webhooks yes

[lethal sand]

With bots being worker process types, do you guys have any documentation or know anyone who would know how to add a web process type in Procfile to allow for Heroku to receive POST request for webhook to bot?

[smoky marten]

web: npm start ???

[grim igloo]

const webhook = new Topgg.Webhook(client.config.topggauth)

app.post("/dblwebhook", webhook.listener(vote => {

  console.log(vote.user) 
}))
app.listen(1460)

for some reason this doesn't work

it doesn't log anything when i test it

[jaunty plank]

did you fill in the webhook and auth with the url to your server?

[grim igloo]

yea

[jaunty plank]

you didnt use a discord webhook correct?

[grim igloo]

yea, im just logging when a user votes

btw for the "Webhook URL"

its https://myIP:PORT/dblwebhook

right?

[jaunty plank]

http://myIP:PORT/dblwebhook not https://myIP:PORT/dblwebhook

https only is if you have ssl

[grim igloo]

O

tysm it works

[cunning sonnet]

And what did they say?

[scarlet cobalt]

[earnest bramble]

For my IP would it by my external or internal?

[jaunty plank]

External

[earnest bramble]

Okay ty

And for the port i can just put 80? Because my external is my home

[jaunty plank]

80 can be fine, but it is a protected port so it may not function, anything over 2000 should work fine if 80 doesn't work.

If you're using this at home you'll also need to port forward

[earnest bramble]

I'll use 2333 then, <- should work if i use that port when using localhost right?

[jaunty plank]

Using local host as the url?
Local host will never work with topgg.

Topgg needs to send the webhook to you, the url is how the site knows where to send it.

Putting localhost just sends it to topgg itself which means it will never reach your home server

[empty urchin]

I have a verified bot thanks 🙂

[smoky marten]

Then why is your name white ?

[empty urchin]

@tender hollow

@smoky marten

[smoky marten]

[cunning sonnet]

I see

So tell me @scarlet cobalt what are you working on?

how should it be coded? cuz this code doesnt work

[elfin lichen]

what was the Top.gg IP address to whitelist for Webhook Post requests

found em: 159.203.105.187

[untold venture]

ah yes. my token is

[rain heart]

refresh

[keen gull]

I cannot get feedback in webhook posts. I tried the same codes from topgg.js.org and other sources but it did not work. It is because of me or the api?

[restive otter]

if you mean reviews, top.gg doesnt post reviews by webhook

[woeful gale]

Can I suppress these error messages? Clogging up the terminal lol

[restive otter]

handle your errors ™️

[woeful gale]

Well I tried a try-catch..
Didn't work, just went through it lmao

[restive otter]

I will write a code as I can't use commands without voting, I need voting API, can anyone give it?

[restive otter]

https://docs.top.gg

[warm warren]

my question is not about the api itself but rather about that "testing" feature.

I enabled it but how do I test my vote callback now?

[river summit]

Hey all, I have a little bit of an issue.
I am hosting my bot from home. I have built a script to receive votes from top.gg, and when I run it on my every day computer, it works perfectly fine.
But when I run the code on my raspberry pi, where it sits every day, it just doesn't receive anything. Opening a port, it does appear to run when visiting localhost with the port, but it just doesn't seem to receive anything other than that.

I use a noip account as well, and when i run the script on my everyday computer and visit the port via the allocated hopto.org address, it works just fine.
But running the script on my raspberry pi, the address appears as offline just as if no script was running at all.
does anyone have any ideas?

And yes, I did port forward the port to my raspberry pi as well.

[iron mural]

What to do?

[river summit]

?

[river summit]

that doesn't have anything to do with my problem

[iron mural]

i need help dude

[river summit]

yeah me too

[warm warren]

I highly recommend not to open ports at home, that's a really high security risk, you always have to watch out that every single package/piece of code on your raspberry pi and your router software is 100% up to date

so that all security patches are applied

[river summit]

thank you for your advice, but at this moment i have no other option. this doesn't fix my issue

[ancient pawn]

do you need to apply any kind of port forwarding rules

[river summit]

i don't know, do i?

[ancient pawn]

if your home network has a router then the answer is probably yes

[plucky lance]

So… looks like I don’t need to reply to your DM anymore

[river summit]

i mean i have port forwarding on

[plucky lance]

You’re sure the raspberry hasn’t a firewall running?

[river summit]

as said originally

[ancient pawn]

there should have been a port forwarding rule applied for it to work at all on your pc

[river summit]

i'm not sure but i also couldnt find one and also the internet says there is none soo

idk though

[plucky lance]

Did you check iptables, ufw etc for its status?

[river summit]

well, on my pc it also didnt work until i applied the port forwarding rule :)

[river summit]

yes

[ancient pawn]

you need to change the port forwarding rule to point to your pi if you haven’t done that

[river summit]

whenever i run it on my normal pc, the port is open

[warm warren]

Just rent a server, it's not that expensive 💀

[river summit]

whenever i run it on my raspy, the port is closed

[river summit]

that still doesn't solve my issue

[warm warren]

probably some security settings

[warm warren]

this would solve your issue

[river summit]

ok, send me some money over

[warm warren]

C'mon it's literally 1$ per month

[ancient pawn]

did you do this

[river summit]

i did

[river summit]

^

[warm warren]

It's probably some low level firewall security on your rpi where you need to change stuff

[ancient pawn]

can you try ufw status on the pi

[river summit]

that sounds realistic, i just don't know of any firewall on my pi and i couldn't find anything about it

[river summit]

command is not found, hold on

[ancient pawn]

well that’s a non issue

if ufw isn’t installed it cant act as a firewall lol

[river summit]

yes

the answer i find online is that the firewall is turned off by default. so i really don't know how it can be that, but i also don't know how it can be something else

maybe something with node? idk

[jaunty plank]

so it works with localhost?
what about from the main computer to the pi?

[river summit]

what do you mean?

[plucky lance]

Can you send me the response for the iptables -L -v

Just to make sure

[river summit]

actually, i overread the iptables part, i didnt check that yet. but it just tells me that i must be root

let me see real quick how to fix that

nvm i just needed sudo lol

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination

@plucky lance

according to the internet this means everything is off

[plucky lance]

It's not off but accept all connections, means it doesn't filter any connection

[river summit]

yeah, semantics

so the question is, how deep can the problem go? could it be with the way i installed node? something about my router? the question is really where can the problem be at this point

since localhost works just fine, but using the hopto.org link doesn't, i feel like it can't be with node

there's really only two options:
something in my router is blocking the raspberry from working correctly
something in my raspberry is not working with my router

right?

[wind flame]

Due to some reason on Topgg it's not showing the right guild count, the bot is sharded

const shard_id = client.shard.ids[0];
const shard_count = client.shard.count;
const server_count = client.guilds.cache.size;

fetch(`https://top.gg/api/bots/718501137484873748/stats`, {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
   Authorization: "",
   "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ shard_id, shard_count, server_count })
}).then(response => response.text())
  .then(console.log).catch(console.error);

[plucky lance]

Hmm I'm not entirely sure at this point to be honest...

[river summit]

i take any suggestion no matter how silly

[plucky lance]

Check once again if port forwarding is set up correctly pointing to your raspberry device IP

Also make sure to not use a reserved port

(TCP)

[river summit]

i set up a port just for this test that i enabled on every device - let me send you a picture

[plucky lance]

The currently visible number on the website might still be a cached value you see...

[jaunty plank]

things I would check.

internal connection(can you access the pi on another local machine).
if that works, does it work with your external network ip.
if that works, its likely hopto causing the issue.

[plucky lance]

OH NO ANOTHER TELECOM ROUTER

[wind flame]

Uhm let me check from incognito

[river summit]

i am using ssh to access the machine

[plucky lance]

[river summit]

you said the same last time xD and an old one at that

[wind flame]

nah still not

https://top.gg/bot/718501137484873748

can you check what it shows

[jaunty plank]

the site has an internal cache aswell

[plucky lance]

You may wanna check the count in about an hour again, please

If it's still wrong after that you should get in touch with staff in here again

[wind flame]

okay

[river summit]

and no, using my public ip address instead of the hopto link doesnt work. i think thats what you mean at least

[plucky lance]

Choose a different port for the devices, not the same

[river summit]

alright

[jaunty plank]

op yeah that would do it 👀

[plucky lance]

Priority wise the stupid telecom router may just pick the first rule

[river summit]

oh… yeah… that worked.

https://tenor.com/view/kendo-shinai-bonk-doge-horny-gif-20995284

[plucky lance]

You usually only forward the entire traffic to one device

[river summit]

thank you so much guys. i didn‘t know that wasnt possible 😭

this took me one day but it was so worth it. thank you so so so much

well, lesson learned!

[plucky lance]

UDP should be able to handle to forward it to multiple devices as it's a connectionless stateless protocol but just keep away from trying it

alright

np

[river summit]

yes. thank you so much.

[plucky lance]

But I doubt consumer hardware is able to do that sort of "load balancing", ESPECIALLY TELECOM ROUTERS

They are only able to frustrate their owners

[river summit]

the reason it initially didnt work was the same then. when i set up the manjaro, i thought „why not set up for the raspberry as well and save some time“ and since it didnt make any issues then, i didnt think this was the issue

[river summit]

oh yeah i could talk about it all day

sadly, in germany telekom has a monopoly

basically if you use any other internet provider it just uses telekoms stuff with a different coating

[plucky lance]

If you need the request on multiple devices you should be able to use a proxy

[river summit]

i dont

i only needed it for testing

[plucky lance]

Or simply send the request to one device then on success internally send another request to a different device

ah ok

nvm then

[river summit]

but thanks for the suggestion, if i do need it i will look into that :D

[plucky lance]

fine

if something else is going on, just ping me in here

that's more useful for others with similar issues then DMs

[river summit]

alright, will do!

thanks a lot for the help, i really appreciate it

[plucky lance]

👍

[restive otter]

how do i use top.gg webhook, i don’t have any experience with webhooks

[jaunty plank]

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/

[restive otter]

uhm so i listen to GET /webhook/topgg

and top.gg would post to it when someone votes?

got it

[iron mural]

Tell me if it works

[restive otter]

youll have to listen for post requests not get requests

[iron mural]

and then no need to use this code?

[restive otter]

what

[iron mural]

u mean like this??

[restive otter]

no

[nova sierra]

does anyone know why this error exists

[restive otter]

handle your errors

[iron mural]

then how?? can u help?

[iron mural]

xD

[restive otter]

read the docs™

[iron mural]

I've read it

and paste this code

but it doesn't work

[restive otter]

where are you hosting your bot

[iron mural]

in A windows host

it was in heroku but i moved it

[restive otter]

youll need to port forward it then

[iron mural]

localhost?

can u dm?

@restive otter

[restive otter]

can i use the api to track another a servers votes, if the bot has permissions in the server

[restive otter]

no

figured out how i could do that

[plucky lance]

An internal server error of topgg.
You gotta expect that the endpoint is unreachable sometimes

[iron mural]

It's A sub package. Nvm about it

+nvm I've done the vote tracker using heroku + websocket

[glad prairie]

hello

I think my topggpy webhooks are stopping randomly

dbl_token = ""  # set this to your bot's Top.gg token
client.topggpy = topgg.DBLClient(client, dbl_token)

client.topgg_webhook = topgg.WebhookManager(client)
client.topgg_webhook.webserver.router.add_post(path="/dbl", handler=bot_vote_handler)

client.topgg_webhook.run(5000)```

I have all this in my on_shard_ready event, but randomly it will start sending these errors;

```py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/aiohttp/web_protocol.py", line 314, in data_received
    messages, upgraded, tail = self._request_parser.feed_data(data)
  File "aiohttp/_http_parser.pyx", line 546, in aiohttp._http_parser.HttpParser.feed_data
aiohttp.http_exceptions.BadStatusLine: 400, message="Bad status line 'invalid HTTP method'"```

[sullen nymph]

It's some random bs sending weird requests

[glad prairie]

would it be in the handler?

[sullen nymph]

Not exactly, no. You're receiving weird requests, not sending

[glad prairie]

ah

so its not my code then

[rain heart]

its possibly not top.gg either

[untold ferry]

I’m using topggpy for discord.py, and I’m not getting any events for on_dbl_vote. I have it DM me when there is a vote with the data and stuff and it doesn’t work when I vote for my own bot. I do have the client.topggpy(…) stuff that has my top.gg token and what not.

[mystic meteor]

I set the "Authorization" option in my bot's Webhooks settings to a random password, but it doesn't seem to be coming through when someone votes my application.

[untold ferry]

Can anyone help?

[jaunty plank]

did you fill in the webhook url and auth on topgg?

you didnt use a discord webhook correct?

[untold ferry]

im not wanting to do the webhook

i just want my bot to send me a dm when someone votes

[jaunty plank]

on_dbl_vote only works with webhooks

[untold ferry]

oh

how do I get when a user actually votes? like how other bots do it: e.g. dank memer

[jaunty plank]

with webhooks

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/

[mystic meteor]

?

[jaunty plank]

are you using special/accented characters in your auth?
special/accented characters can prevent the auth from being sent.

[mystic meteor]

Nope

Yes, it is saved

[jaunty plank]

thats really strange

how are you logging that?
potentially auth is a protected header?

[mystic meteor]

nvm it's definitely on my side

Just have to find what the problem on my side is lol

[untold ferry]

But even when I try and print the data, it doesn’t print anything

Like in the examples

[untold ferry]

Like how could I customize what happens instead of using webhooks

[jaunty plank]

did you fill in the webhook url and auth on topgg?

you didnt use a discord webhook correct?

[untold ferry]

No because I didn’t know I needed to

I’ve already said this: I want to have the bot DM me when a user votes

[jaunty plank]

yeah you need to fill it in with the url to your server and the auth you set in code.

just to clarify, the webhook sent from topgg goes to your server and fires the on_dbl_vote event, not discord.

[untold ferry]

Then how does Dank Memer do it. Dank memer dms you when a user votes

[jaunty plank]

dank memer receives the webhook via a webhook listener, then sends a dm with the bot.

[untold ferry]

Is that something custom they did? The webhook listener?

Cuz from what I hear, webhooks are sent messages in channels from webhooks.

[jaunty plank]

you're confusing topgg webhooks with discord webhooks

topgg webhooks do not work with discord webhooks

[untold ferry]

OHHHH I see what you mean now

Topgg webhooks

I thought you meant discord webhooks

So how do I get the data from the topgg webhook?

Is it from on_dbl_vote?

[jaunty plank]

yeah

[untold ferry]

Oh I see

[jaunty plank]

youll need to fill in the url and auth on your bots edit page in the "webhooks" section

[untold ferry]

K

What do I put as the webhook url?

[jaunty plank]

it depends on your host.
if your host provides an ip it will be
http://ServerIP:Port/Path
port and path are defined in code.

[untold ferry]

Can I DM you my host port and stuff and you could show me how I format it? We can continue the convo here if you want tho. Just don’t want to send that info here.

[jaunty plank]

sure

[drowsy spruce]

yo why am i getting { error: 'Unauthorized' }

[drowsy spruce]

nvm figured it out

[severe dawn]

why there are cloudflare protection for api

how can i verify it

#bug

[jaunty plank]

What endpoint/domain?

[civic glacier]

Is the API down, all my bots are now throwing errors

[ashen heron]

wierd

[civic glacier]

Well that is useful.

[ashen heron]

I think top.gg needs better servers, they are running them on Intel celerons

[restive otter]

lol

[merry swallow]

xD

[severe dawn]

https://top.gg/api/bots/:bot_id/check

[gusty thunder]

How do I set server count on the bot page?

[sage raft]

is there any rust wrapper for topgg

[restive otter]

i host my own bot, is it possible to log topgg votes? and what ip do i need for that

[distant oak]

Why nobody reads the documentation?

[jaunty plank]

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/

[jaunty plank]

not that I'm aware of

[jaunty plank]

https://docs.top.gg/api/bot/#post-stats

[gusty thunder]

ty

[jaunty plank]

I'm not able to replicate it strange.
https://i.imgur.com/i2IiFTF.png

[sage raft]

welp how am i supposed to do the voting stuff now

also if i make one, can i apply for getting it added onto the top-gg organisation?

[jaunty plank]

our docs cover the structure of the api/webhooks. https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/
it provides enough information to make what you need.

I'm not sure how you would get it added to the github.

[worldly tendon]

how can I get the user that voted

would it be voted.id

?

[jaunty plank]

https://docs.top.gg/resources/webhooks/#bot-webhooks

[worldly tendon]

does that link also have how to connect webhooks?

in here https://cdn.beny.gq/chrome_JDzSPec7Sn.png

[jaunty plank]

what do you mean connect?
a webhook is just a webserver.

in that area you put the url to your webserver. the url you use depends on your host and your code.

[worldly tendon]

what would I put if i use railway?

[jaunty plank]

https://docs.railway.app/deploy/exposing-your-app

I dont use railway, if you have any questions about their service best to use their documentation(seems to cover everything you need) or ask their customer support.

[sage raft]

oh ty ty

[night flower]

hey

top.gg autoposter not working

It was working fine on replit

but not on vps

@jaunty plank

hmm

[rain heart]

invalid token

regenerate and re-add

[visual verge]

so im tryna code a vote only cmd but im getting 401 unauthorized error

[distant oak]

Is your token valid?

[visual verge]

webhook token?

[distant oak]

this one

[visual verge]

i regen it then reused it

still it said that

[distant oak]

are you using the webhook or the /check endpoint?

[visual verge]

uhh

sry im new wit top.gg's api 😅

[distant oak]

can you show me your code please? (don't forgot to remove your token)

[visual verge]

ok

const { Api } = require('@top-gg/sdk');
client.topgg = new Api(process.env.TOPGGAPI)

//TopGG vote based cmds
  let voted = client.topgg.hasVoted(message.author.id)
  if(command.voteBased && !voted) {
    if(!voted) return message.reply({ embeds: [{
      title: 'Looks like you haven\'t voted me :(',
      color: process.env.COLOR,
      description: 'This is a vote only cmd, vote me on [top.gg\](https://top.gg/bot/844294068016381982/vote) to gain access to this command ^^'
    }]})
  }

voteBased: true,

[distant oak]

well, everything seems right

just something, hasVoted return a promise, you should await it

[visual verge]

done lets see

[visual verge]

ok so the cmd stopped executing which is good but not getting the you have to vote embed plus still getting the error

[distant oak]

weird

[visual verge]

yea

btw

was this supposed to look like this to everyone?

[distant oak]

sorry i am a bit useless but i cant find the problem 💀

[visual verge]

its ok

atleast the cmd stopped executing after u helped

[distant oak]

looks like that for me

[visual verge]

i see

ig that's not a problem then

[visual verge]

it worked

[distant oak]

cool!

did you change something?

[visual verge]

yea

regened the token couple of more times n reloaded the page

realized that the current token doesnt shows until u dont refresh the page

[distant oak]

okay lmao

[visual verge]

xd

n thanks ^-^

[distant oak]

np

[glad walrus]

Hi im a little lost so im trying to add one of my server mods onto my top.gg team but regardless of wgat i try it says that it encountered an error while adding a team member
