Currently trying to use setPresence for my bot, and I can get the name but no extra details for the 2nd line and no images.
bot.user.setPresence({
game: {
name: "Ready to brawl!",
application_id: 'the id',
details: "These sharks are ready for a fight.",
type: 0
},
assets: {
large_image: "large",
large_text: "Do not jump into that tank...",
small_image: "small",
small_text: "c!help"
},
status: "dnd"
});
So what shows up is:
My bot is on DND, shows "Playing Ready to brawl!", but nothing else. The details part doesn't show up and there's no large or small image.
I've used a custom presence application before so I assumed you needed your own discord application on the developers site, so I made one. I have the name of it the exact same as the "name: '.' " part and I have the id in the application id part. (I'm not sure if it's bad to share the ID so I excluded it.)
Before I tried using large_image and small_image as pure inputs and gave them links, but neither that nor this application one worked.
So if I'm seriously fucking something up here, help would be appreciated
It's normal, you can't use Rich Presence with a bot actually. Maybe someday Discord will allowed this.

I have been using autocode.com to create some Discord bots. I have very little programming experience and found autocode to be quite easy. However, I've tried asking a question on autocode's discord that no one seems to understand or is asking.
I am trying to create a bot that replies to reactions--but does not assign roles, but instead, provides a reply--either in thread or a DM to that user who uses that specific emoji reaction.
For example, this is what I am looking to do: if there is a bot message in #channelx, userX will react to that message with a pepperoni emoji and then a pizza bot will reply back with a message either in thread or DM such as, "Hi #userx, your pizza topping has been recorded and will be ready for pickup in 15 minutes, please visit this link.com to track your order".
Autocode has a bot that can react to reactions and assign roles but I can't seem to reverse engineer it give a reply, rather than assign roles.
I appreciate any assistance. Thanks!
What does autocode use? Python or node.js? If python, you can do something like this:
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith('message'):
await message.channel.send('hi')
If node.js, you can do something like this:
client.on('messageCreate', msg => {
if (msg.content === 'specific message') {
msg.reply(`response text`);
}
});
I was previously a Community Hero at the Autocode Discord server. Try finding another app through this, and if none are available, the thing to do would be looking through the API's. Here's one for messaging in general, here's one for responding, and here's one for dm-ing.
Let's say, for example, I'd be making it reply to a reaction through DM:
The first thing you do is make sure the event trigger is set to message.reaction.add. This is so that the code you will write is triggered whenever a reaction is added.
Make either a switch or if statement to change what happens depending on what reaction triggers the code. In this example, I'll just use an if statement for easy explanation.
const lib = require('lib')({token: process.env.STDLIB_SECRET_TOKEN});
if (context.params.event.emoji.id == '1234567890') {
await lib.discord.users['#0.2.1'].dms.create({
recipient_id: `${context.params.event.member.user.id}`,
content: `Hi <#${context.params.event.member.user.id}>, your pizza topping has been recorded and will be ready for pickup in 15 minutes, please visit this link.com to track your order`
});
}
What this does is check if the thing that triggered this event has the emoji id equaling '1234567890': If it does, then it follows into that if statement, and if it does not, it skips over it.
In the future, please stay patient in the Autocode Discord server; The ones who are helping are also community members, similar to here. You may always ask the same question every now and then.
I'm struggling to complete the development for a SmartHome action on our security panels, involving different trait implementations (including ArmDisarm, Power, Thermostats, etc.).
One specific problem is related to Toggles Trait.
I need to accept commands to enable or disable intrusion sensor bypass/exclusion.
I've added to the SYNC response the following block, for instance, for a window sensor in the kitchen:
{
'id': '...some device id...',
'name': {'name': 'Window Sensor'},
'roomHint': 'Kitchen',
'type': 'action.devices.types.SENSOR',
'traits': 'action.devices.traits.Toggles',
'willReportState': true,
'attributes': {
'commandOnlyToggles': false,
'queryOnlyToggles': false,
'availableToggles': [
{
'name': 'bypass',
'name_values': {
{ 'name_synonym': ['bypass', 'bypassed', 'exclusion'}, 'lang': 'en'],
{ 'name_synonym': ['escluso', 'bypass', 'esclusa', 'esclusione'], 'lang': 'it'}
},
}
]
}
}
I was able to trigger the EXECUTE intent by saying
"Turn on bypass on Window Sensor" (although very unnatural).
I was able to trigger the QUERY intent by saying
"Is bypass on Window Sensor?" (even more unnatural).
These two utterances where found somewhere in a remote corner of a blog.
My problem is with Italian language (and also other western EU languages such as French/Spanish/German).
The EXECUTE Intent seems to be triggered by this utterance (I bet no Italian guy will ever say anything like that):
"Attiva escluso su Sensore Finestra"
(in this example the name provided in the SYNC request was translated from "Window Sensor" to "Sensore Finestra" when running in the context of an Italian linked account).
However I was not able to find the utterance for the QUERY request, I've tried everything that could make some sense, but the QUERY intent never gets triggered, and the assistant redirects me to a simple search on the web.
Why is there such a mistery over utterances? The sample English utterances in assistant docs are very limited, and most of the times it's difficult to guess their counterpart in specific languages; furthermore no one from AOG has ever been able to give me any piece of information on this topic.
It's been more than a year now for me, trying to create a reference guide for utterances to be included in our device user manual, but still with no luck.
Can any one of you point me to some reference?
Or is there anything wrong with my SYNC data?
You can file a bug on the public tracker and include the QUERYs you have attempted. Since the execution intents seem to work, it may just be a bug in the backend grammar that isn't triggering.
I have been working on a way within my discord server to try to automate the flow of users who want to try out for a team using bots. Currently I have adopted YAGPDB and have a role menu created in a community level (category) #general_tryouts channel with reactions to specify which game they want to pursue. When they select a reaction they are assigned a temporary role (24 hours) which will grant them access to the game specific category #tryouts channel they've selected. I've been successful with getting all of the roles assigned using YAG's gui interface. However, I would also like for a message to be sent to the game specific #tryouts channel with an embed (similar to a welcome message) stating that they would like to tryout, to notify the 'team' that they are "in the queue". So the process would look something like this:
User A pops into (Some Community) #general-tryouts -> reads the menu asking them which team they want to tryout for and selects option 1 (':one:') -> User A is given the role for TempGame1 and can now see (Some Game) #tryouts AND simultaneously a message is sent to (Some Game) #tryouts on their behalf.
If they choose option 2 they will receive a TempGame2 role and a message should be sent to (Another Game) #tryouts.
If they choose option 3 they will receive a TempGame3 role and a message should be sent to (ThisOther Game) #tryouts.
YAGPDB has the option with it's custom commands to fire a command triggered by a reaction given in a certain channel by someone with a certain role. The issue is getting the result of which reaction they selected, and that dictating where the message is sent. I'm really not even concerned if it's just a generic message. I just want User A to be able to react at a 'community' level and a message to get passed in to (Some Game) #tryout, (Another Game) #tryouts, or (ThisOther Game) #tryouts based on their selection.
My apologies in advance. I am only proficient enough to code a simple I say "ping" you output "pong" sort of transaction, and got in a little over my head in short order. I have looked at the developer resources trying to piece something together to no avail, as well as pulling a similar snippet of code from here and attempting to modify it to suit my needs, also to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Code Sample
if (reaction.message.id === '730000158745559122') {
let channel = reaction.message.guild.channels.cache.get(targetChannelId);
console.log(reaction.emoji)
if (channel) {
let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed();
embed.setAuthor(
user.tag,
user.displayAvatarURL({
dynamic: true,
format: 'png',
}),
);
embed.setDescription(`${user} has react a: ${reaction.emoji}`);
channel.send(embed);
}
}
Visual Representation
New
in the code if (reaction.message.id === '730000158745559122') the 73000 portion represents that whole message as a focal point on what the bot is 'listening' for. Any reaction to it, be it 1, 2, or 3 will trigger this singular process. So by what you are saying by using the (id === 123 || id === 456 || id === 789) {} would likely be the way to go if I had more than one message is was 'collecting' on for a lack of better way to state it. I believe what I need to do is
`if (reaction(':one:').message.id === 123 {send message ('nifty embed')to channel.id 12345}
if (reaction(':two:').message.id === 123 {send message ('nifty embed') to channel.id 67890}
if (reaction(':three:').message.id === 123 {send message ('nifty embed') to channel.id 16273}`
I have created a skill with name "BuyDog" and its invocation name is "dog app"
So that should mean, I can use the intents defined inside only after the invocation name is heard. (is that correct?)
Then I have defined the Intents with slots as:
"what is {dog} price."
"Tell me the price of {dog}."
where the slot {dog} is of slot type "DogType". I have marked this slot as required to fulfill
Then I have added the endpoint to AWS lambda function where I have used the blueprint code of factskills project in node.js, and done few minor changes just to see the working.
const GET_DOG_PRICE_MESSAGE = "Here's your pricing: ";
const data = [
'You need to pay $2000.',
'You need to pay Rs2000.',
'You need to pay $5000.',
'You need to pay INR 3000.',
];
const handlers = {
//some handlers.......................
'DogIntent': function () {
const factArr = data;
const factIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * factArr.length);
const randomFact = factArr[factIndex];
const speechOutput = GET_DOG_PRICE_MESSAGE + randomFact;
}
//some handlers.......................
};
As per the about code I was expecting when
I say: "Alexa open dog app"
It should just be ready to listen to the intent "what is {dog} price." and the other one. Instead it says a random string from the node.js code's data[] array. I was expecting this response after the Intent was spoken as the slot was required for intent to complete.
And when
I say: "open the dog app and Tell me the price of XXXX."
It asks for "which breed" (that is my defined question) But it just works fine and show the pricing
Alexa says: "Here's your pricing: You need to pay $5000."
(or other value from the data array) for any XXXX (i.e. dog or not dog type).
Why is alexa not confirming the word is in slot set or not?
And when
I say: "open the dog bark".
I expected alexa to not understand the question but it gave me a fact about barking. WHY? How did that happen?
Does alexa have a default set of skills? like search google/amazon etc...
I am so confused. Please help me understand what is going on?
Without having your full code to see exactly what is happening and provide code answers, I hope just an explanation for your problems/questions will point you in the right direction.
1. Launching Skill
I say: "Alexa open dog app"
It should just be ready to listen to the intent...
You are expecting Alexa to just listen, but actually, Alexa opens your skill and is expecting you to have a generic welcome response at this point. Alexa will send a Launch Request to your Lambda. This is different from an IntentRequest and so you can determine this by checking request.type. Usually found with:
this.event.request.type === 'LaunchRequest'
I suggest you add some logging to your Lambda, and use CloudWatch to see the incoming request from Alexa:
console.log("ALEXA REQUEST= " + event)
2. Slot Value Recognition
I say: "open the dog app and Tell me the price of XXXX."
Why is alexa not confirming the word is in slot set or not?
Alexa does not limit a slot to the slot values set in the slotType. The values you give the slotType are used as a guide, but other values are also accepted.
It is up to you, in your Lambda Function, to validate those slot values to make sure they are set to a value you accept. There are many ways to do this, so just start by detecting what the slot has been filled with. Usually found with:
this.event.request.intent.slots.{slotName}.value;
If you choose to set up synonyms in the slotType, then Alexa will also provide her recommended slot value resolutions. For example you could inlcude "Rotty" as a synonym for "Rottweiler", and Alexa will fill the slot with "Rotty" but also suggest you to resolve that to "Rottweiler".
var resolutionsArray = this.event.request.intent.slots.{slotName}.resolutions.resolutionsPerAuthority;
Again, use console.log and CloudWatch to view the slot values that Alexa accepts and fills.
3. Purposefully Fail to Launch Skill
I say: "open the dog bark".
I expected alexa to not understand the question but it gave me a fact about barking.
You must be doing this outside of your Skill, where Alexa will take any inputs and try to recognize an enabled skill, or handle with her best guess of default abilities.
Alexa does have default built-in abilities (not skills really) to answer general questions, and just be fun and friendly. You can see what she can do on her own here: Alexa - Things To Try
So my guess is, Alexa figured you were asking something about dog barks, and so provided an answer. You can try to ask her "What is a dog bark" and see if she responds with the exact same as "open the dog bark", just to confirm these suspicions.
To really understand developing an Alexa skill you should spend the time to get very familiar with this documentation:
Alexa Request and Response JSON Formats
You didn't post a lot of your code so it's hard to tell exactly what you meant but usually to handle incomplete events you can have an incomplete even handler like this:
const IncompleteDogsIntentHandler = {
// Occurs when the required slots are not filled
canHandle(handlerInput) {
return handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request.type === 'IntentRequest'
&& handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request.intent.name === 'DogIntent'
&& handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request.dialogState !== 'COMPLETED'
},
async handle(handlerInput) {
return handlerInput.responseBuilder
.addDelegateDirective(handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request.intent)
.getResponse();
}
you add this handler right above your actual handler usually in the index.js file of your lambda
This might not fix all your issues, but it will help you handle the event when a user doesn't mention a dog.
I would like to know how to display a file when a user types something.
Ex: Show me the course details
Output: The file(pdf format) which is on my PC gets displayed.
Basically, you need to know how to work conversation: is one API for creating Intents, Entities and your Dialog flow.
Your application will access all nodes with the return from the API, and you will create conditions to get something for know if the user asked something about "Show me the course details".
I recommend to you create one intent like #aboutCourse and show examples to Watson know if the user will ask something with this purpose.
Something like:
Watson says: Hi! How can I help you?
User: Please show me the course details
Watson will recognize your intent and response what you paste within the node with the Intent condition #aboutCourse.
Make sure if the user really want this with:
Watson says: You really want to know details about the course?
User: yes / ok // or something to confirm
Or you can add some Intent confidence level for this node condition like: intents[0].confidence >= 0.75
And your code will check if the Intent is #aboutCourse and the entity is #yes, and do something in your application.
Or, you can create one context variable too, because, depends on your node flow, the intents will modify within your flow because every time Watson try to recognize what the user wants.
With your dialog flow, you will create one context variable and check if user says yes, like:
{
"context": {
"courseConfirm": "<? #yes ?>" //create one intent with confirm examples and value equal yes
},
"output": {
"text": {
"values": [
"Ok, you say #yes. I'll check, one moment."
],
"selection_policy": "sequential"
}
}
}
And within your application:
function updateMessage(input, response) {
if (response.context.courseConfirm == 'yes') {
//do something with code with code
}
}
Or you can create one function inside my example, like this answer.
Obs.: This code example is with conversation-simple project, from IBM Developers, but you will do something like my example with the same logic:get the return from API and do something within your application.
