Anyone good with API's here? 🤔
north flax
There are several types of apis, and each has a different interface.
ember canyon
I am wanting to use the 'PUT' method... I can't see to make it update the data.. I just brings backUser ID not define
north flax
Again, there are a lot of different API's. Starting with saying what API you're trying to access, and what endpoint, is a good start, else people won't be able to help.
amber oasis

basically this https://i.sgtbreadstick.tk/LlszgY0j.png
i tried width: 100%; any many other things, didn't change
unkempt hamlet
So, your .footer is absolute, so it will not inherit width/height of parent element
rich flint
oh
rip me lool
i changed absolute to relative but it seems to have done this https://i.sgtbreadstick.tk/2FuOGpSM.png
tbh i coded it from scratch so it looks a bit ugly rn
unkempt hamlet
Did you want to footer being fixed to the bottom all the time?
rich flint
well so it goes to bottom but not fixed so it is at bottom of content all the time
it worked before
but i lost the code due to my pc dying

Is Discord Bot Maker actually any good? I want a bot and have no experience
slow wagon
wow
shy swan
Lol. @slow wagon I am the moderator of the whole Discord Bot Maker Program community
shy swan
It uses discord.js so it's very good. But you'll have to be in the community. Otherwise you don't get support lol
Some other users of the TTL community got DBM too
shy swan
And the bot from TTL was made in DBM

rich flint
i'm a little bit confused
but someone managed to get SSH access to root and they said they put a RAT on it
unkempt hamlet
Who told you so?
rich flint
someone called kontrol
north flax
Check SSH access logs.
rich flint
kontrol#7972
north flax
Check if any unknown IP has connected.
unkempt hamlet
Is kontrol is OVH representative?
rich flint
nope
unkempt hamlet
Then blick him for good
rich flint
but his IP showed up with access to the vps
we blacklisted it
so now hopefully he shouldn't access it anymore
north flax
Yes, but make sure your SSH keys work.
rich flint
i hope it works :/

Because if they don't, or you lose them, you can't get back in

@full locust one thing to say about Firebase - documentation is a good damn joke...

Lool...so then it's trial and error?
unkempt hamlet
No, docs are just bad as is

To be clear - SDKs are really straight forward
I am using official JS library (app/database/auth) + firebaseui-web for an auth

Ohhh okay, thanks. What I'm looking for is somewhere to stored raw data from a crawler I'm making online so that other members of my team and myself can transform it at a later time.
unkempt hamlet
You can totally do that. But keep in mind - there are API calls limit for a free tier.
Also, db space limit.
They have a file storage too.

I actually suggested that to be changed but it got rejected lol
that was before i joined the team lel
north flax
I think I remember it being declined once. Don't think it's a big job to change it to a responsive bit of ad code, but I can't really do it.
scenic star
I believe you declined it aswell xD
north flax
Can't remember
rich flint
All you do with ads in css is
*Ad id* {
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
}
If that doesn't work the try the !important tag. 😉
tidal zodiac
It's not that simple... you need to update all the ad units to be responsive which means create new ad units and updating all their codes.
amber oasis
Using !important should be avoided at all cost
unkempt hamlet
Here we go: https://helper.mp/vote
cinder spear
there's really no reason to ever use !important in a well managed project
it's useful for things like stylish so users can apply their own styles

Does anyone happen to know how to Webhook a Google form? So when someone submits the form it then pops up in Discord? I got close to ti but didn't quite hit the nail properly.

Yeah I did test applications and that didn't work though
amber oasis
Make sure the code is saved, I noticed that sometimes is a bit wonky
and verify that the trigger is setup, as well as that you have given the full URL to your webhook and authorized it
google docs should request the authorization automatically, if it doesn't, set up the hook again
pliant ruin
It asked for it before, but unsure if that was for this code or not.

shy swan

it carried over from my selfbot
amber oasis
yeah, I got one that makes some things easier, doesn't do anything fancy
shy swan
But it is illegal.
It’s against Discord’s Tos if you’ve got something which logs in via a users token.
You need an application on discords dev page for that.
amber oasis
It's not actually mentioned in their ToS
shy swan
shy swan
Well. That's weird
amber oasis
the reasoning for the support article is to make your average user not do it, since the average user is known to screw up a lot
shy swan
Yes you're right. But I still prefer bot applications
amber oasis
I'll often simplify things down to "don't do it", even if it's technically allowed, but where the technicality requires you to understand where the line goes
If what I do with my selfbot was possible with a bot account, I would
and do
shy swan
Okay. You won... 
amber oasis
my selfbot aids me for example it tracking when I get pinged and where
if you update emojibot to 3e5949e, you'll be right before the point where I started making it use a database

python is a good one to know
cinder spear
trying to draft a message in VS Code be like
amber oasis
Python is good, though, do suggest learning eg. Postgres instead of MySQL
MySQL isn't all that great, it's passable, where as Postgres is excellent
amber oasis
It's used widely, but you should learn postgres before mysql, mysql is great if you love surprises though
cinder spear
😄
had an issue with mysql recently
solution? double the RAM on the machine
always love the "throw more power at it" solutions
amber oasis
We used to store sessions in mysql for the game
until the entire server was slow as a dog because of the number of rows in that one table, even if it wasn't being actively queried
and it wasn't close to mem max when that happened
cinder spear
in memory store sounds much better for game sessions
amber oasis
That's what it is now, but not at the time
it's not the only caveat I've found with MySQL, and it's not really well covered, but query times can increase substantially with the size of any table within the database
cinder spear
0.75 sec for a SELECT .. JOIN query on two tables with ~485 million rows each
amber oasis
I don't remember the exact number, but we where at an order of magnitude above that
*over an order of magnitude

If you're a student, you can get all of JetBrains' stuff for free
php storm is hands down the best IDE for PHP, great support for debugging in all kinds of scenarios, and one of the cheaper ones (Zend used to, maybe still does, make the best, but it was crazy expensive)
amber oasis
php tools for vs iirc. is more expensive than phpstorm?
also, only windows
yeah, my god is php tools expensive

actually, phpstorm is slightly more expensive; 89€ before you have perpetual use license

Guys, I'm trying to get php mail() working on a windows IIS server (yes, not a great choice but its a choice XD). I've got this from stackoverflow or something similar but doesn't work. I don't have access to the sendmail.ini or whatever, only the .user.ini.. I've tried port 25 and 465. Any help?
SMTP = mail.truckersdatabase. cf
smtp_port = 25
auth_username = email@truckersdatabase.cf
auth_password = passwordgoeshere1
sendmail_from = email@truckersdatabase.cf```only ever send mail yourself as a last resort
it's like time. Letting someone else handle it for you is going to save you a lot of trouble

Its for an activation email thing

if it sucks don’t use it

So, readdir's callback appears to never get called in node, typescript

Right so, im wanting to make a website with a text and video based chat. Can anyone give me any websites that may help me to do this??
Including JQuery, HTML, CSS, PHP

Video-based chat?
royal wharf
Any help??

Does anyone know how to run a URL in the background without the browser opening??
With VBScript
I have done so much searching but nothing of what I found works
Set WshShell = Nothing don't work because its not supported in Visual Studio 2017

curl?
royal wharf
curl?
Wut 😂
@north flax Looking at Curl on stackoverflow, im not too sure of what it said. Can u please explain what it does
north flax
Most used library in the world for contacting servers over http and various other protocols in programs
north flax
And return the result to your program.
amber oasis
.net has the necessary stuff to make a request
royal wharf
Ok, I might try it if I find out how to 😂
north flax
Yeah, .net has the stuff you need built in
amber oasis
no need to involve curl for that
royal wharf
Ok thanks you to 😃
amber oasis
There's a few possible solutions here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11255688/vb-net-hide-a-window-through-code-not-is-net-window
royal wharf
Thanks Tuxy
Do you want a fish as a thank you?? 😂 (Really bad joke due to your profile gif)
I should stop these really bad jokes haha
amber oasis
keep it short and concise when googling
royal wharf
Indeed, I try to haha
royal wharf
when I do
me.visible = False
It makes my software to go invisible, not the browser 🤔
Let me just do the HTTPRequest thing if that works

guys go install Better Discord holy looks awesome
royal wharf
I know, but its quite annoying sometimes
Well urm, my software just crashed 😂
Any reason why?
Tired another code, crashed again
Stress...
Hate my life 😂
royal wharf
Lads, im still confused man. I cant find out how to
I found some way but it opens windows media player but then I want that hidden
amber oasis
tf are you even doing? xD
royal wharf
trying to get a radio station through vb
without opening a browser

there should be an API that you can use without opening media player 😉

@north flax Sorry for the tag, but how do I do your way?? The HTTPRequest
I have done so many ways and the way that I have found brings up a bloody virus thing
which is with WindowsMediaPlayer
Like, I want to press button, and then the radio station plays

@north flax Sorry for tag, however what is the code to get discord bot to show the ets2mp server status??
I wanna update my server bot
Don't worry. Just looked at pins. I'm a noob
north flax
You need to learn to use a rest api, and use our api, to make it work.
north flax
Use google.
north flax
That's correct. However, what you need more specificly is to load a website, and parse json, to get hte data. Then you need to find our api docs
royal wharf
Fairs
cinder spear
graphQL > REST 
amber oasis
graphql would be overkill for the shit tmp does
the api isn't designed for 3rd parties
north flax
Graphql is cool, but a bit overkill for the limited amount of data we offer and such :p
If we had a larger, more complex set of data in our api, with more relations and stuff, it could be cool to implement graphql
rugged copper
You can either use the SDK, the telemetry API or something called ETCARS which is fairly new and still in development (I think there is an alpha) but it provides a local raw socket server which provides a json array and handles different events such as job submission
north flax
amber oasis
erlang has caught a lot of wind recently
north flax
cinder spear
but that has a denial of service vulnerability that you don't even need to exploit for it to be in effect
amber oasis
Only if you don't run it
TIL you can do shit like this: ```javascript
let getUser = osuApi.getUser({u: id}).then(v => return).catch(…);
setTimeout(() => {
if(getUser) {
// getUser is now resolved
}
});```
Why you'd do that idk…
I guess that'd be like https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise/finally in a way
amber oasis
nah, the setTimeout callback is called when the stack is empty, it's even covered explicitly in the promise documentation on MDN
north flax
I guess it could have some edge case uses, i.e. to run something before a program finishes
amber oasis
strange af either way
north flax
Yeah, it is

@Humane That new vc private feature is a great addition 👍 However - just in case it's not too much effort - would it be possible to add a command that creates a voice channel that can be only accessed by a specific rank?
sweet hornet
wicked lava
I won't say it's already there but... uhm
sweet hornet
So what's the point in putting that here?
north flax
No, that suggestion is checked because of the "basically VC creatoers should be able to control who can access their channel"
Not planning on making a role based access any time soon
amber oasis
kinda looks like it isn't cleaning them up though wolfie 😛
amber oasis
x.x Par1 is out of everything but c1 and arm64-2GB instances on scaleway
similar deal in ams
north flax
Make a cluster of c1's, use software supporting clusters 😛
amber oasis
much rather use arm64s
north flax
Botdottir is running from a C1 in Par btw :p
north flax
They didn't offer arm64 when I got that c1, and I've been too lazy to move it
amber oasis
I wonder if you can snapshot a c1 and restore on arm64
north flax
Potentially :p
If I didn't need a paid keymetrics plan to do it, because limitations on number of servers, I might have remade it and dockerized the stuff running on that c1
Would be neat to make it possible for people to change their ranks and stuff in the browser, then we could attach descriptions to the ranks and such as well. Hmm :p
But then I'd need to make a more persistent backend for @glass rampart, and write the rank commands and management into her as well
And I am not sure how much use it would actually have x3
Just killed and nuked GA on my website :p
Now it's just that CF also tracks that stuff by default

I can relate with that one a deep level

How do I put the TruckersMP Status API into my website??
Yes im searching and I cant find anything, plus the website isn't live yet and it only would be allowed to be viewed via my VTC Staff. Also yes, im looking at the API Doc's
ember canyon
@royal wharf
<?php
$servers = json_decode(file_get_contents("http://api.truckersmp.com/v2/servers"), true); ?> ```
Then you could do something like this:
``` <?php
foreach($servers['response'] as $serv){
if($serv['online']){
$status = '<strong><font color="green">Online</font></strong>';
} else {
$status = '<strong><font color="red">Offline</font></strong>';
}
if($serv['speedlimiter']){
$speedlimiter = 'Speed Limiter - <strong><font color="green">Enabled</font></strong>';
} else {
$speedlimiter = 'Speed Limiter <strong><font color="red">Disabled</font></strong>';
}
} ?>```
Hope that helps 😃np 😃
royal wharf
So that would work with HTML?
ember canyon
echo it?
amber oasis
You must cache the response, the above will not satisfy the api usage requirements
royal wharf
And how do I do that?
ember canyon
ye i should probably cache it
royal wharf
but how 😂
ember canyon
magic 😉
ember canyon
i use visual studio for c# etc
amber oasis
by using a cache, if you don't know how, google it 😉
royal wharf
@ember canyon Urm. Well it done by what some of the PHP script done but is this how it meant to be??
ember canyon
no
ember canyon
2 secs
royal wharf
oki
royal wharf
I've never done PHP before so its new to me
ember canyon
<?php $servers = json_decode(file_get_contents("http://api.truckersmp.com/v2/servers"), true); ?>
foreach($servers['response'] as $serv){
if($serv['online']){
$status = '<strong><font color="green">Online</font></strong>';
} else {
$status = '<strong><font color="red">Offline</font></strong>';
}
if($serv['speedlimiter']){
$speedlimiter = 'Speed Limiter - <strong><font color="green">Enabled</font></strong>';
} else {
$speedlimiter = 'Speed Limiter <strong><font color="red">Disabled</font></strong>';
}
echo '<div>
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h3 class="panel-title">'. $serv['name'] . ' - ' . $serv['game'] .'</h3>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
Players: '. $serv['players'] .' / '. $serv['maxplayers'] .'<br />
Status: '. $status .'<br />
'. $speedlimiter .'
</div>
</div>
</div>';
}
?>
```make sure to cache it
let me know if something like that works
unkempt hamlet
Should I make a status widget for the websites?
pearl badger
@royal wharf no that in a php file would create a dynamic html page
That should work
In .php but not as a .html file
But tbh i haventbused pfp in ages
royal wharf
I've never used it so
I realised that all my websites are done via aspx (asp.net) so... 🤷 I dunno what to do
north flax
You're perfectly able to get data from a json api endpoint using aspx.
No need to learn a new language for that
royal wharf
I see 🤔
Oh wait. I don't think I have the jquery.js script in my traffic part of the webite anyway 😂
Let me do that real fast haha to see if it works
north flax
You'll have to make a back end regardless, which loads from our server and caches the result, so that your pageloads don't impact our service.
royal wharf
Indeed
What is the cache script 🤔 I cant find it
I'm bit stupid when it comes to API cos i've never done any of this before
north flax
Caching the response just means you save it somewhere. Where that is doesn't matter to us, it's just so that when someone loads your website it loads from that file, that database, or what have you, instead of contacting our api every time
north flax
https://github.com/HumaneWolf/tmpstatus/blob/master/servers.php
Here is an example, it saves the truckersmp api response and the time it was fetched to files.
When you use fetchAsJson or fetchAsObject it checks the time file to find out if it has up to date data, if not then it checks our api.
royal wharf
Ah thank you!! 😄
So do I all that php script and the API php script into 1 php file??
north flax
No, the code I've written has dependencies. Look up composer if you want info about that, but in general, you should go and look at some php tutorials before starting to write too much code
royal wharf
Ok. I'm just a noob, lets just keep it as that 🙃 😢 😭
wicked lava
All you need to know is how to handle files on your server using php.
If someone calls your website, your website, the php script should get the data from the api. But before you send the data back to the client, the code should create a text file on the server. It needs to contain the current unix time stamp and the content of the json you got from the api.
When someone calls your website again, the code should read that text file before contacting the api. If the timestamp in the text file is older than let's say 180 seconds, it's not current anymore and you need to contact the api again and update the textfile. But if the timestamp is not older than 180s, you just read the data from your text file instead using the tmp api.
royal wharf
I got some of that. Not all of it
wicked lava
I cannot provide an example since I'm more experienced in node.js than php
cinder spear
for relatively small caches something like memcached or redis can serve you better than a file on disk

been stuck on that for at least 30 mins
just on 94% thing
it said Applying earlier but does nothing

well i go look for a "Build" button, i spent 10 mins looking for what i think is meant to show up and i can't seem to find a build button -_- https://i.sgtbreadstick.tk/8uDmFGXC.png
i knew i shouldn't have started using visual studio
all i am doing is compiling source code
😂
why do i even try... https://i.sgtbreadstick.tk/cZqawsN4.png
ember canyon
is that unknowns?
rich flint
yes
i just changed the background for simple mode to see if it works
and instead i can't even compile it lool
ember canyon
lol
cinder spear
where's your csproj?
rich flint
csproj?
cinder spear
...the project file that defines what runtime your project should be built against
it can't build the project if it doesn't know what to build it for
cinder spear
I'm surprised you have that much code without one tbh
cinder spear
usually you start a project by creating the csproj (or having the IDE create it)
rich flint
all i did was grab the files and put them into...
well it just crashed
so how do i add all the truckersmp launcher code to the project?
amber oasis
You can't TruckersMP launcher is propritary and reverse engineering it will result in a permanent ban per the ToS
rich flint
It's unknown no's laucher source code not official one lol
rich flint
Ye seen as he put source code to it on github
I mean I'm not that good. Like i can reverse engineer a program. That's just a miracle LOL
small ermine
Haha
Well you can change it to launch anything I guess, or make your own custom launcher
Or just find out how it works

I just make a ets2 mod which is trailer colour
Would it work in ets2mp?
Its just a blue trailer
Which I done my self
I did find a ets2mp blue trailer mod but it wasn't the right type of blue for my vtc
I don't want to cause any issues so
royal wharf
Don't worry. Found ForeRunners software thing 😂
Hope it works
🤔 Well... It didn't even enter my mod menu thing
Probs compressed it wrong
🤦 I'me ever so stupid
small ermine
I can't get mine working, it broke my TMP 😂 😂
royal wharf
lol
wicked lava
@royal wharf That mod should work, but you need to attach the trailer in SP, deactivate the mod and switch to MP again
royal wharf
Yeah thats what I been doing and I been overriding the trailers also but nothing worked. I just got a SellPlan trailer instead 😂
royal wharf
lol sorry @wicked lava totally forgot about what I was about to say hours and hours ago.
wicked lava
xD
royal wharf
As I said, I just used the SellPlan trailer instead cos my VTC paintjob is blue, black and white and the trailer has black top so
Simple fix 🤷 😂
wicked lava
If once anybody will have the same problem again, I will recomment that solution.
Won't ever happen, I guess 😛

question all i am looking for a discord.js bot that will look on the twitch api and get information off of the twitch api like following a channel and community and twitch team and following a twitch community the bot will have to run on windows
basicly like a page scraper

Right so i found a little bug in the recruitment page (no not the fact most say i've been banned recently )
It goes uneven and i found a way of resolving it 😉
I had to find a way cos i saw many people get triggered cos of it 😂 Plus it triggered me too lool
So made a nice little bug report and a full way of resolving it just incase 😉
Funny thing is im being useful for once

500s are logged to your error log 😉

eg. with laravel, it's even better, it's in your app/storage/logs, unless you use some other logging system
