RunIn precondition is failing because of missing permissions. Your bot probably doesn't have the correct intents or the VIEW_CHANNEL permission

TejasOP•2w ago

But it's a user application cmd how does perms in that server effect it?

Favna•2w ago

what is the RunIn you provided on the command I mean you must have added it to the options. It's not automatic.

TejasOP•2w ago

It's

runIn: [CommandOptionsRunTypeEnum.GuildAny, CommandOptionsRunTypeEnum.Dm],

runIn: [CommandOptionsRunTypeEnum.GuildAny, CommandOptionsRunTypeEnum.Dm],

Favna•2w ago

I mean at that point you can just remove it ... that covers everything

TejasOP•2w ago

I thought it would be considered a DM channel in user apps :/ so the cmd would execute

Favna•2w ago

nah DM channel is when you DM the bot user apps are completely separate

TejasOP•2w ago

so why are these checks running on user apps then, shouln't they be an exception?

Favna•2w ago

ehm... why.. because the code is from before user apps were a thing and it wasn't implemented. Should they be running at all.. idk, that's a design choice we havent made yet. Truth be told not a lot of development for sapphire has happened over the past many months. I can say the reason for that is lack of time and yeah sure it plays a part, but it's also lack of motivation from Vladdy, Kyra and myself. We all have full time software engineering jobs and maintaining an open source project next to that in our free time that pays nothing back isn't really motivation boosting.

TejasOP•2w ago

Fair enough, also I was looking at Using the built in OAUTH2 route (backend) and I was messing around and was wondering if I have something like the ss below, we can't overwrite the existing route?

Sapphire Framework

Using the built in OAUTH2 route (backend) | Sapphire

If you are using localhost as your test environment, make sure you use http//localhost in

TejasOP•2w ago

Specifically this

Favna•2w ago

no but why would you want to? the route ultimately really doesn't matter because you call it from your frontend and what route you call is arbitrary

TejasOP•2w ago

That is true I can change the route, I just wanted this token and store it somewhere in the backend, is this possible with the default setup?

Favna•2w ago

it is not, nor should you. That's not how cookie authentication works. As shown right there, we dont use JWT tokens in the traditional sense. The backend sets the cookie and on the frontend you include credentials: true in your request options and the authentication is automagically shared

Let's say I have a simple route like this

@ApplyOptions<Route.Options>({ route: "guild/:guildId/delete-settings" })
export class DeleteSettingsRoute extends Route {
  async run(request: ApiRequest, response: ApiResponse) {
    const { guildId } = request.params;
    const { userId, token } = request.query;

    if (!userId || !token) {
      return response.status(401).json({ error: "Unauthorized" });
    }

    const isAdmin = await checkIfGuildAdmin(guildId, userId, token);
    if (!isAdmin) {
      return response.status(403).json({ error: "Forbidden" });
    }

    return response.json({ success: true });
  }
}

@ApplyOptions<Route.Options>({ route: "guild/:guildId/delete-settings" })
export class DeleteSettingsRoute extends Route {
  async run(request: ApiRequest, response: ApiResponse) {
    const { guildId } = request.params;
    const { userId, token } = request.query;

    if (!userId || !token) {
      return response.status(401).json({ error: "Unauthorized" });
    }

    const isAdmin = await checkIfGuildAdmin(guildId, userId, token);
    if (!isAdmin) {
      return response.status(403).json({ error: "Forbidden" });
    }

    return response.json({ success: true });
  }
}

In this ex, I'm relying on userId and token being passed in manually to verify access. but with the session based approach you're talking abt (cookie + credentials: true), how should I identify and authorize the user server side if I'm not storing anything backend-side or decoding a JWT? In other words how do I securely know who the user is in a route handler if all the state is in a cookie and I'm not querying or validating it explicitly?

Favna•2w ago

did you check out this guide page? https://www.sapphirejs.dev/docs/Guide/plugins/API/authenticating-routes Other than that you can get the discordjs User object through this.container.client.users.fetch(request.auth!.id) and then do with it as you please

Sapphire Framework

Locking routes behind authentication | Sapphire

When writing an API that is publicly available for consumption, it is often desirable to lock some routes behind them
