QUESTION
It's my first time seeing this feature from a Discord bot. I tried looking everywhere but it seems that I have failed. There's this feature from Captcha.bot Discord bot where you can accept input from a pop-up window inside Discord.
There's a button in an embedded message made by Captcha.bot where you will have to answer a Captcha test. After pressing the button, it creates a pop-up window like this.
After placing the right answer on the captcha bot, here's the aftermath of the experience.
All I want to learn is how to summon that pop-up window using Discord.js if it's even possible or at least learn how they did it.

In the meantime, you can use an npm package like discord-modals or discordjs-modal.
You can find a working example with the discord-modals
package below. Don't forget to install it first using npm i discord-modals

Using AWS Lambda functions with Python and Selenium, I want to create a undetectable headless chrome scraper by passing a headless chrome test. I check the undetectability of my headless scraper by opening up the test and taking a screenshot. I ran this test on a Local IDE and on a Lambda server.

Answered 2021-Dec-18 at 02:01WebGL is a cross-platform, open web standard for a low-level 3D graphics API based on OpenGL ES, exposed to ECMAScript via the HTML5 Canvas element. WebGL at it's core is a Shader-based API using GLSL, with constructs that are semantically similar to those of the underlying OpenGL ES API. It follows the OpenGL ES specification, with some exceptions for the out of memory-managed languages such as JavaScript. WebGL 1.0 exposes the OpenGL ES 2.0 feature set; WebGL 2.0 exposes the OpenGL ES 3.0 API.
Now, with the availability of Selenium Stealth building of Undetectable Scraper using Selenium driven ChromeDriver initiated google-chrome Browsing Context have become much more easier.
selenium-stealthselenium-stealth is a python package selenium-stealth to prevent detection. This programme tries to make python selenium more stealthy. However, as of now selenium-stealth only support Selenium Chrome.

QUESTION
I handle a channelDelete event in my discord bot. My original intent was to do the following:
- Listen for when a channel is deleted
- Check to see if its type equals 'GUILD_CATEGORY'
- Delete all the channels under that category
I can typically access channels under a CategoryChannel
through its property called children
anywhere else except during this event...
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-19 at 14:09Unfortunately, this is how CategoryChannels work in discord.js...
When the category is deleted, discord.js sends a request to the API to delete the channel. Only then, Discord sends you the event after the category is deleted.
What happens next is that the children are not located in the category anymore! So you will not be able to get the children inside the CategoryChannel object.
This is the code for the children
property

I am running a Spring Boot app that uses WebClient for both non-blocking and blocking HTTP requests. After the app has run for some time, all outgoing HTTP requests seem to get stuck.
WebClient is used to send requests to multiple hosts, but as an example, here is how it is initialized and used to send requests to Telegram:

...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-20 at 14:25I would propose to take a look in the RateLimiter direction. Maybe it does not work as expected, depending on the number of requests your application does over time. From the Javadoc for Ratelimiter: "It is important to note that the number of permits requested never affects the throttling of the request itself ... but it affects the throttling of the next request. I.e., if an expensive task arrives at an idle RateLimiter, it will be granted immediately, but it is the next request that will experience extra throttling, thus paying for the cost of the expensive task." Also helpful might be this discussion: github or github
I could imaginge there is some throttling adding up or other effect in the RateLimiter, i would try to play around with it and make sure this thing really works the way you want. Alternatively, consider using Spring @Scheduled to read from your queue. You might want to spice it up using embedded JMS for further goodies (message persistence etc).
QUESTION
Apparently, discord bots can have mobile status as opposed to the desktop (online) status that one gets by default.
After a bit of digging I found out that such a status is achieved by modifying the IDENTIFY packet
in discord.gateway.DiscordWebSocket.identify
modifying the value of $browser
to Discord Android
or Discord iOS
should theoretically get us the mobile status.
After modifying code snippets I found online which does this, I end up with this :
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-07 at 23:03The following works by subclassing the relevant class, and duplicating code with the relevant changes. We also have to subclass the Client
class, to overwrite the place where the gateway/websocket class is used. This results in a lot of duplicated code, however it does work, and requires neither dirty monkey-patching nor editing the library source code.
However, it does come with many of the same problems as editing the library source code - mainly that as the library is updated, this code will become out of date (if you're using the archived and obsolete version of the library, you have bigger problems instead).
QUESTION
SOLVED - The categories/channels were set to private which is why they couldn't be changed even with the correct permissions. My solution was to tell the user which ones and to add the role with the permissions manually. I added a message that said they can just give the bot administrator permissions and it will do it for them. Hopefully, this helps anyone who runs into this in the future.
I'm trying to change the permissions of multiple categories and channels using the following code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-31 at 12:05This is simply how Discord works, if a channel is private and the bot does not have administrator permissions or role that has permissions to view the channel, it is not able to view it.
You can create a new category that the bot can access like this:

QUESTION
I am working on certain stock-related projects where I have had a task to scrape all data on a daily basis for the last 5 years. i.e from 2016 to date. I particularly thought of using selenium because I can use crawler and bot to scrape the data based on the date. So I used the use of button click with selenium and now I want the same data that is displayed by the selenium browser to be fed by scrappy. This is the website I am working on right now. I have written the following code inside scrappy spider.

Scrapping links should be a simple feat, usually just grabbing the src

I'm trying to figure out a way to grab the items and their corresponding links. My typical python selenium code looks something as such

Install reddit-post-alerts
Now, to set up the service that hosts your bots. Make sure git is installed, then [install Heroku](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli#download-and-install). Verify that you installed it with $ heroku --version. Make an account on [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com/) then login to Heroku on your terminal. Now initialize a local git repository for the project, if it has not been initialized yet.
Since this script will check every 5 minutes, we want to make sure it doesn’t notify us of the same post twice. For this, we need a way to store the post_id of each post we have already been notified of. We will be using PostgreSQL as it is free and integrated with Heroku. Start by [installing Postgres](https://www.postgresql.org/download/) on your local machine. Then, add Postgres to your Heroku app by logging onto the Heroku website. Log in to Heroku > Heroku dashboard > Choose your app > Resources > Add-ons > Select Heroku Postgres > Click on Provision. After adding it, check information about Postgres with the below command. Start a psql session with the remote database with heroku pg:psql. In the session, [create a table](http://www.postgresqltutorial.com/postgresql-create-table/) for the database that the script will pull from. As you can see from bot.py we are checking and inserting into a table named redditpostalerts and a column named post_id. Verify that it has been created with heroku pg:info, the number of tables should be 1. You can pull and push to and from a database on your local machine and many other operations you can find [here](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-postgresql).
