Sharding Client To Long to be Ready Error

I am creating a Discord Bot using Discord.js v14.15.3. Along with Node.js v18.18.2. I am currently trying to implement sharding into the project, but I get his error message when ever I run the bot. I get this before the bot goes online. Error

Error [ShardingReadyTimeout]: Shard 0's Client took too long to become ready.
    at Timeout.onTimeout (C:\Coding\BOTNAMEHERE\bot\node_modules\discord.js\src\sharding\Shard.js:183:16)
    at listOnTimeout (node:internal/timers:569:17)
    at process.processTimers (node:internal/timers:512:7) {
  code: 'ShardingReadyTimeout'
}

    at process.processTimers (node:internal/timers:512:7) {

}

My current codebase that is related to sharding is two files, an index.js and a bot.js. Index.js: https://pastebin.com/zsik23wV Bot.js: https://pastebin.com/BttCCnpN Now, if there is anything else I can provide please let me know. @Qjuh, this is the post. Just pinging you because you told me to make it.

Already included all of these.

manager.spawn({ amount: 'auto', delay: 15500, timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

manager.spawn({ amount: 'auto', delay: 15500, timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

this part, amount should be totalShards afaik not sure if its the sole issue but just skimming through real quick :thumb: also, youre using a lot of intents, do you need every single one?

Booboo v(=∩_∩=)ﾌOP•4mo ago

For the intents, yes I will be needed all of them. Also what do you mean by it should be totalShards?

https://discord.js.org/docs/packages/discord.js/14.15.3/ShardingManager:Class#totalShards

discord.js

discord.js is a powerful Node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

d.js docs•4mo ago

:class: ShardingManager @14.15.3 This is a utility class that makes multi-process sharding of a bot an easy and painless experience. It works by spawning a self-contained ChildProcess or Worker for each individual shard, each containing its own instance of your bot's Client. They all have a line of communication with the master process, and there are several useful methods that utilise it in order to simplify tasks that are normally difficult with sharding. It can spawn a specific number of shards or the amount that Discord suggests for the bot, and takes a path to your main bot script to launch for each one.

jamie•4mo ago

ah, that wasn't what i meant to do, my bad for the duplicate

Booboo v(=∩_∩=)ﾌOP•4mo ago

I am confused, I know what it is but what should I be doing.

jamie•4mo ago

sorry, my bad, i totally misunderstood/got myself lost :DyanSigh: this is redundant:

const manager = new Discord.ShardingManager('./src/bot.js', {
    totalShards: 1, //total shards declared here
    token: process.env.DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN,
    respawn: true,
    timeout: -1,
})

const manager = new Discord.ShardingManager('./src/bot.js', {
    totalShards: 1, //total shards declared here
    token: process.env.DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN,
    respawn: true,
    timeout: -1,
})

// total shards ALSO declared here through amount
manager.spawn({ amount: 'auto', delay: 15500, timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

// total shards ALSO declared here through amount
manager.spawn({ amount: 'auto', delay: 15500, timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

also, are there any other errors before/after the timeout? there's a lot going on before any of your shards are even able to spawn, it may be that

Booboo v(=∩_∩=)ﾌOP•4mo ago

I will be able to try them in a few, but there are no other errors. I will let you know how it goes. I removed the

manager.spawn({ amount: 'auto', delay: 15500, timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

manager.spawn({ amount: 'auto', delay: 15500, timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

It does not work.

jamie•4mo ago

because you don’t remove the manager spawn; you still need that in order to spawn the shards. the redundant part is the “amount”

Booboo v(=∩_∩=)ﾌOP•4mo ago

I am sorry for my incompetence, but this still is not working when this is my code.

const manager = new Discord.ShardingManager('./src/bot.js', {
    totalShards: 'auto',
    token: process.env.DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN,
    respawn: true,
    timeout: 60000,
})


manager.spawn({ timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

const manager = new Discord.ShardingManager('./src/bot.js', {
    totalShards: 'auto',
    token: process.env.DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN,
    respawn: true,
    timeout: 60000,
})


manager.spawn({ timeout: 60000 }).catch(e => console.log(e))

What do you think it is?

jamie•4mo ago

. if it doesn't log in on time, it won't continue. does the ready event fire? edited to add: you're using a lot of intents, which is a lot of info - you can try increasing the timeout or figure out why its taking so long to start up

Booboo v(=∩_∩=)ﾌOP•4mo ago

The ready event does not fire, I will try incressing the timeout time to 5 minutes. But before that I will remove a lot of the intents. I did, I made it 8 minutes.

message.txt

Booboo v(=∩_∩=)ﾌOP•4mo ago

I changed it, but it still did not work. I do log in.

To share long code snippets, use a service like gist, sourcebin, pastebin, or similar instead of posting them as large code blocks or files.
