I seen the deferredResponse.getFollowupMessage(XXX) but .. how can I get the message ID?

gdude•2mo ago

the message will be edited and the embed will be gone you get the ID as part of the interaction response

TicOP•2mo ago

Which property? 🤔

gdude•2mo ago

not sure, but it's in whatever is returned by the creation function

TicOP•2mo ago

I don't find 🤔

gdude•2mo ago

check what the edit/delete function does ig

LustigerLurch•2mo ago

it will be the id of a followup you created to the intial response - otherwise there are no followups

TicOP•2mo ago

Ok so, how can I create a followUp 😅? I found something like:

val deferredResponse = interaction.deferPublicResponse()
        val msg= deferredResponse.respond {
            content = "This command is not implemented yet."
            embed {
                title = "This command is not implemented yet."
                description = "This command is not implemented yet."
            }
        }
        println("First: ${msg.getFollowupMessage(msg.message.id).message.embeds.size}") // 1
        delay(5.seconds)
        println("Second: ${msg.getFollowupMessage(msg.message.id).message.embeds.size}") // After suppression by user, 0

val deferredResponse = interaction.deferPublicResponse()
        val msg= deferredResponse.respond {
            content = "This command is not implemented yet."
            embed {
                title = "This command is not implemented yet."
                description = "This command is not implemented yet."
            }
        }
        println("First: ${msg.getFollowupMessage(msg.message.id).message.embeds.size}") // 1
        delay(5.seconds)
        println("Second: ${msg.getFollowupMessage(msg.message.id).message.embeds.size}") // After suppression by user, 0

It's the good way to verify?

gdude•2mo ago

What are you trying to achieve here I'm pretty sure users can't edit bot responses

TicOP•2mo ago

He can click on the closs at the top right of an embed and after that, if the bot tries to update the embed, the message is modified but the embed removed (never appears again)

gdude•2mo ago

I don't think it makes sense to worry about that Why would that happen?

TicOP•2mo ago

Because the buttons continue to work. So in my paginator, the user can continue to change the page, but no info can be display (because embed integration is removed by user), so I would like to cancel the process to stop lifecycle linked to the paginator, returns a error message to the user saying "Integration removed" etc.

gdude•2mo ago

A user can't realistically expect an embed to work if they remove the embeds It doesn't make sense to account for that, you can't prevent every piece of user error That said, removing embeds triggers a message update event I think? Make sure you checked that

TicOP•2mo ago

I don't think so 🤔 but maybe it's something to check of course, but it's also to avoid consuming resources (CPU, RAM) because the paginator don't work anymore and stop the process consequently

gdude•2mo ago

Wouldn't you time it out anyway? All KordEx paginators time out by default

TicOP•2mo ago

There is a timeout system, but stop the system instantly when the embed is removed is better than wait X minutes

gdude•2mo ago

I doubt it'll be much of a performance problem compared to you polling each followup message from cache

LustigerLurch•2mo ago

you can bring the embed back by adding suppressEmbeds = false to the message (modify) builder it sets MessageFlag.SuppressEmbeds in the flags of the message. you should also be able to use that flag to determine when the embeds are removed by a user.

gdude•2mo ago

That's useful info, gg

TicOP•2mo ago

oh? interesting thanks I will try That works, nice so followup message is not necessary for my need Ah .. maybe yes to verify if the message is deleted or not So the mix between: - supressEmbed to keep the integration updated - LiveMessage to receive information when message is deleted Resolve my issue, thanks a lot In the same context, LiveMessage are with preview annotations since .. 2-3 years I think, maybe we should remove the preview state? @LustigerLurch

LustigerLurch•2mo ago

tbh, i have basically never touched those so i'm not sure how they work

TicOP•2mo ago

Basically, create a system that listen event from discord and call registered handler if it's not a deletion I worked on it partially, it was before the add of interaction
