[wild spoke]

ig. it can send messages

[livid hedge]

i posted the code

[slate swan]

It's about getting the content of it

[livid hedge]

.

[slate swan]

Enable intents.message_content

[slate swan]

And I told you 3 times what might be the issue....

[wild spoke]

where

[slate swan]

If you don't read, that's your fault

[slate swan]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default discord.py has all intents enabled except for Members, Message Content, and Presences. These are needed for features such as on_member events, to get access to message content, and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[livid hedge]

still doesnt work

[slate swan]

Did you even reinvited your bot with the correct scope

[winter gull]

I have just noticed that if i ran a command and instantly run the same or any command again. It takes time to run the second command till the first one is completed. I dont want this to happen

[livid hedge]

It has always had the right scope

[faint sapphire]

idk if it possible to do these with requests.post()

[livid hedge]

but I also readded

[slate swan]

In that vase share more of the code, only those lines are not the root cause of your issue

[wild spoke]

Did not work

[faint sapphire]

its basically to be able to use application slash commands

[wild spoke]

Im clearly doing something wrong here

[slate swan]

What is your code now for the intents?

[livid hedge]

await bot.tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=int(GUILD)))

[slate swan]

That's still not your full code

[slate swan]

Have you passed it in the bot object?

[wild spoke]

maybe I should put it under a class?

[slate swan]

Like intents=intents

[livid hedge]

prefix = '!'
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
intents.message_content = True
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix, intents=intents)
bot.synced = False
bot.remove_command("help")

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    await bot.wait_until_ready()
    if not bot.synced:
        await bot.tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=int(GUILD)))
        bot.synced = True```

[slate swan]

Bascially this part

did you invite the bot with application commands scope

[wild spoke]

how can I import bot to another cog?

just copypaste?

[slate swan]

You do that in the main file only

You define bot only once, never twice

[slate swan]

you don't, you can pass the bot in the cog class' __init__ dunder instead

set it as an attribute of the class, and use self.<the variable assigned> to access it

[livid hedge]

yes, I did

[wild spoke]

english is hard man

like that?

[slate swan]

That's not how cogs work

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/cogs.html

See how they define bot and access it with self.bot below

[wild spoke]

[livid hedge]

https://solveforum.com/forums/threads/solved-pycord-discord-py-getting-403-forbidden-error-50001-missing-access-even-though-i-have-all-intents-permissions.618585/ I basically have the same error

[wild spoke]

asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop```

tho bot is still running

[slate swan]

How did you invite the bot?

Invite it with https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=YOUR_BOT_ID&scope=bot+applications.commands&permissions=377957502016

Replace YOUR_BOT_ID with the ID of your bot and replace the permissions=377... to the permissions your bot needs.

[robust fulcrum]

Guys anyone here have hikari tutorial?

[faint sapphire]

im tryna see if its possible to automate interactions with applications through slash commands

idk if its possible to do requests.get to get the variables to fill the payload then make the requests.post

payload needs: session id and data

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/sarthhh/6377b5047a0a3055bc08208406fc35fe

[robust fulcrum]

Oh thanks

[sleek palm]

Hey how can i do so my bot would say "You are the 160th member"?

I want the bot to display st, rd, th behind the number

[faint sapphire]

await message.send("you are the 160th member")

your welcome

[sleek palm]

nono not like that, in embed for welcome message

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.member_count

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.member\_count

property member_count```
Returns the member count if available.

Warning

Due to a Discord limitation, in order for this attribute to remain up-to-date and accurate, it requires [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") to be specified.

Changed in version 2.0: Now returns an `Optional[int]`.

[sleek palm]

it show 151 instead of 151st

[tacit horizon]

can I prevent bot crashing if the network gone

[slate swan]

I made a discord bot which shares reddit submissions randomly as an embed whenever the command is sent, can i make it such that it shares only images?

[slate swan]

add a st to it... that depends on your string logic

[slate swan]

yep ofcourse you can even just send the link and it will embed that

[tacit horizon]

Just send the image link from API ig

[slate swan]

i am also adding some other content in embed, so i cant share it as normal link

[sick birch]

Put it on a VPS, even reputable cloud service providers will have network outages. Fortunately they’re good at fixing it up really fast because even a 10 minute network downtime could mean potentially millions of $ lost in revenue

Home networks aren’t as good as getting back up

[slate swan]

then do what eggyinit said

[tacit horizon]

Ya

[faint sapphire]

is it possible to automate interactions with apps through slash commands

it seems all thats needed is to get session id and some variables to fill the payload for the requests.post

im just not sure about the syntax to try all these things

[sick birch]

Yes, though I believe that’s against terms of service

[faint sapphire]

keep = message.content.split(",",1)[0]

[slate swan]

As Robin said, I recommend DigitalOcean for cheap and reliability Eggy, others may have other suggestions. If its just a case cause you turn your PC off, could always look into a RasberryPI but again, it all depends on your home network to.

[sick birch]

Personally, I have a pretty reliable network so I used to host it on my RPI 4 before switching to AWS EC2. We still had network & power outages but we’re resolved swiftly

[faint sapphire]

why not use heroku?

AWS EC2 is free it seems anyway

[sick birch]

We don’t recommend heroku

[slate swan]

As I work in AWS myself, I am actually tempted to switch over cause I know I could keep usage down and not rack up a bill in the 1000s lol. But DigitalOcean have always been just as good for smaller projects really, I am looking at some PIs myself soon for a cluster service.

AWS EC2 is not free lol.

[sick birch]

T2 micro instances are free for 12 months

But honestly feels too low end

[sick birch]

Ah cool! Have a family member who works there as well haha

[slate swan]

Do NOT use AWS if you have no skillset with it, its an enterprise solution and I see it happen daily with people running bills into 1000s because they don't know what they are doing. I mean I just work with AWS tech, sorry my wording can be awful at times.

I would always recommend digital ocean as its very user/new person friendly, and very easy to just fire up a Linux VM with little effort.

[faint sapphire]

how are bots able to respond to multiple users at the same time
i see mine can only handle the same command one at a time

[sick birch]

Doesn’t AWS have methods to limit billing expenses?

[sick birch]

What’re you doing in the function? Might be blocking

[faint sapphire]

i do things in the on message

i dont use bot commands

i guess its obvious then

but im not sure replacing with botcommands makes a diff

[sick birch]

Okay.. Can we see the code for the on message?

[faint sapphire]

ok

[sick birch]

No indeed. As Jammy mentioned, it’s an enterprise solution

[faint sapphire]

that type of stuff

[sick birch]

Is that everything?

Seems like some stuff is cut off

[vale wing]

Are these things supposed to be commands

Seeing all those splits makes me think you are implementing arguments this way

[sick birch]

Using commands would remove all the manual parsing

[haughty nova]

Hello! I want to do a command that write an embed message like this https://gyazo.com/43af9a54d39500694f4ea46094e5dc37

When I write the command !sregler it just sends like this https://gyazo.com/936d31e20543a6ebc67a26efb070a6ab

the code:
https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/babumelegi.py

[sick birch]

You can only have one footer. If you set the footer multiple times, only the last one will be used

[haughty nova]

Ok thanks but how should I write the code if I want it like on the picture?

[winter gull]

I asked this question earlier and did not got any response, i really need help with this.
The bot which i am working on does not respond to any other or same command unless and until the previous command is fully executed. I don't know why this is happening

[sick birch]

Probably add it as one big description with newline characters (\n)

[sick birch]

It's hard to tell without knowing what's going on in the command. Can you paste the code for it? It might be blocking

[haughty nova]

ahh thanks

[winter gull]

Sure just a sec

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[winter gull]

this is one command

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/kuromuzuro

this is another

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ujuderaxih

they are just code under the command

I can stream you the delay that is happening if you wish to

[sick birch]

For the 2nd command, I'm guessing this part is blocking:

JavaServer.lookup('play.timepvp.in').status().players.online

you'll have to find a non-blocking alternative to this

As for the first command, I'm guessing it's all of the kitpvp...() methods

For which, again, you'll have to find a non-blocking alternative

[winter gull]

hmm

I just dont understand about other commands like

for example,
The stats command i have enabled a guild cooldown of 5 seconds, even that is considered a command ran by the user when the previous command has fully executed

I know about creating a task in asynchronous programming. but dont know how to implement it here

[sick birch]

You could try create_task, might be worth it

But the better option would be to find a non-blocking, asynchronous alternative to the JavaServer and kitpvp modules

[winter gull]

the kitpvp module was created by me

it's a class which fetch data from a MySQL database

I can show you the class if you want to look into that?

[sick birch]

Ah okay. How are you interfacing with a MySQL database?

I'm guessing that's where the problem lies

[winter gull]

mysql connector - python

[sick birch]

Can you send me the pypi page?

https://pypi.org/project/mysql-connector-python/ oh is it this?

[winter gull]

yes

[sick birch]

Well there's your issue

It's not asynchronous and blocking

You'll need to switch to an asynchronous mysql connnector

[winter gull]

would it make a difference that when the bot starts, the mysql connection is made due to i create an instance of the class before hand (dont worry i close the database after the bot is stopped and the data is committed after 60 seconds)

[sick birch]

No, you need to switch over libraries

Personally I can't recommend any good ones as I've never used mysql, but you might have luck asking in #databases for python async aiosqlite connectors

[winter gull]

so like making the fetching of data asynchronous?

[winter gull]

alright thanks!!

[slate swan]

aiomysql should do the job

[winter gull]

how do I send a message as a response to the user who ran the command?

[sick birch]

Just ctx.send()?

Or are we talking about app commands

[winter gull]

no like

[winter gull]

like this "replying to"

[sick birch]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

await reply(content=None, **kwargs)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

A shortcut method to [`send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.send "discord.ext.commands.Context.send") to reply to the [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") referenced by this context.

For interaction based contexts, this is the same as [`send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.send "discord.ext.commands.Context.send").

New in version 1.6.

Changed in version 2.0: This function will now raise [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "(in Python v3.10)") or [`ValueError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#ValueError "(in Python v3.10)") instead of `InvalidArgument`.

[winter gull]

ty

[outer fog]

it tells you the Attribute error

[sick birch]

#media-processing please

[slate swan]

you really shouldnt use the internal session the bot class has

im pretty sure it passes your Bot token into a header for each request

[slate swan]

? the internal session is Bot/Client.http.__session which can't be accessed anyways

need to use .http._HTTPClient__session for that iirc

[slate swan]

this is cool

[pliant gulch]

Discord PR staff: How the hell do we get people to get excited about the old discord API
Also discord PR: Just add a badge people will do anything for them

[slate swan]

noone's gonna complain about slash commands now, cause badges are ✨ cool ✨

[slate swan]

ik

[hybrid fjord]

how do i store data within my bot?

[slate swan]

🗿 and they are not using that i forgot to include

[shrewd apex]

...

[slate swan]

does it need to be temporary or permanent

[hybrid fjord]

permanent

[shrewd apex]

i legit thought u were actually reading the source

[shrewd apex]

what's the data

[hybrid fjord]

i did a bit of googling and i'm to put the filename in .gitignore which is what i'm trying now

levels, warnings and so on

[shrewd apex]

make a SQL db

[hybrid fjord]

i'll try that second

[shrewd apex]

whats first then?👀

SQL db seems simplest to me

[slate swan]

src of?

[shrewd apex]

another thing u can use is mongodb

[shrewd apex]

p2

;-;

[hybrid fjord]

@shrewd apex

[slate swan]

i am

yet I have installed it, how can I fix it?

I thought Discord added a new badge for badge hunters, but no it's for the bot

[shrewd apex]

huh? .gitignore dosent store stuff

[hybrid fjord]

yes but i can stop it from resetting everytime i run the bot

[shrewd apex]

oh nais nais i won't disturb u

[hybrid fjord]

which is what it does currently

[slate swan]

just dont use it, install dpy2.0 and use that

[slate swan]

i disturb myself 🚶‍♂️

[shrewd apex]

close discord tab and focus

[shrewd apex]

if u want a permanent db either use sql based db like postgres aiosqlite

or if u don't wanna learn SQL us a nosql db like mongo

[hybrid fjord]

👍

[slate swan]

and not JSON

[slate swan]

how do I install it?

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32 here's a complete guide of how to install and use it

[shrewd apex]

#discord-bots message

[slate swan]

okay thanks

[slate swan]

mongo

[shrewd apex]

?

[slate swan]

imagine mongo sheesh

[shrewd apex]

what's wrong with it

[paper sluice]

go sleep

[slate swan]

hmm point

but i gotta work soo

[slate swan]

https://www.google.com/search?q=why+mongodb+bad

[shrewd apex]

it's 7 something in uk og

[slate swan]

8

[shrewd apex]

that way everything is bad

some how or the other

[slate swan]

ofcourse

how do i delete server template and create a new one

and send the url of the new one

[rough kraken]

I want to develop a bot that automatically bumps my server after the discord bumper time is over. I am very new to bot development , so the only solution currently i can think of is that i run the /bump command once and then let the bot reply to that msg with /bump in the specific time interval. So he keep on going... I dont know if its the efficient way. Could someone please guide me abit on that? Is there a specific function in the discord api?

@bot.event
async def on_message(msg):
    username = msg.author.display_name
    #if msg.author == bot.user:
        #return
    if msg.content == '/bump':
        await msg.channel.send("/bump " + username)

[slate swan]

use @tasks.loop()

I don't think slash commands just works by sending the command prefixed with slash...?

true

[slate swan]

instead of that, how can i send the link of the existing server template?

[rough kraken]

so printing it wont work?

[slate swan]

No

[rough kraken]

is there another way to run a command then

[slate swan]

They works on completely different endpoints

You can send http requests to this route but I wonder if discord allows bots to run slash commands

Also most bot developers themselves ignore bots, even in gateway commands. So I don't think there's any way to do that

[rough kraken]

:/

ok thank you

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.templates

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.templates

await templates()```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Gets the list of templates from this guild.

Requires [`manage_guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_guild "discord.Permissions.manage_guild") permissions.

New in version 1.7.

[slate swan]

i used it but

[sick birch]

Exactly the reason why bots can’t invoke the slash commands of other bots, so you can’t automate it

[rough kraken]

https://codeberg.org/SnowCode/auto-bump#:~:text=SnowCode%2Fauto-bump%3A A,automatically bump servers on Disboard. i found this repo that isdoing the same thing

[slate swan]

[<Template code='gQ5USdenfeRFbUDW' uses=0 name='🂱🂶 Backup_AW' creator=<User id=999636884923883531 name='Meft' discriminator='6dedef10' bot=True> source_guild=<Gefefeild id=921366728016011324 name='eedefd🂶' shard_id=Nonefe chunked=False meefmber_count=469690>>]

@slate swan

[sick birch]

That’s a self bot and against discords terms of service

[slate swan]

That's a 2 years old code when gateway commands were active

help me

[slate swan]

Choose the template you need the url for, and the object returned is a discord.Template class

[slate swan]

a server can only have one template

how do i choosee it

[rough kraken]

so there is a way but against tos

[outer flint]

has anyone replicated the Dyno's action log?

[slate swan]

Uhm the dpy's docs says it returns a list of Templates. Well if that's the case just do templates_list[0]

[sick birch]

…yes

[slate swan]

There used to be a way... which was against tos..

[slate swan]

will it still print [<Template code=dieewifbefebfeifew>]

There are still more ways but yeah they all break tos one way or other

i want it to print https:template.f//isKJnifnI6

[slate swan]

That's a representation of class. If you use it's attributes you can get whatever you need out of it

For code, you need to template.code

!d discord.Template.code

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Template.code

The template code.

[slate swan]

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

And to get url, prefix https://discord.new/ before the code

okay

[sick birch]

That’s out of my expertise, sorry

[faint sapphire]

i couldnt find these 3 things ig the Get response

[patent lark]

i’m sorry, what?

[slate swan]

what are you even trying to do

[faint sapphire]

so im trying to figure out where the info used in this

is found in that

[patent lark]

i think you’re in the wrong channel bud.

[faint sapphire]

oh yh i think networking i should go to

mb

[slate swan]

a better place would be #965291516031549500 /the discord developers server itself

why are you trying to read the raw responses and requests tho

[cerulean folio]

ok so after recommendations about rate limits it's coming from replit, I hosted my bot on google cloud virtual machine and got this error

[slate swan]

you are probably doing something which is making a lot of reqs

!paste mind showing your complete code

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:

[sick birch]

!d discord.Member.avatar.url

[slate swan]

Avatars are now an Asset too

[cerulean folio]

i can show you my complete project sarth but i won't show it here because the code is very very long and might contain sensitive parts i don't want to share. shall i dm you and add you to the github repo so u can see it?

[slate swan]

user.avatar.url to be more specific

[cerulean folio]

it's been some time i'm thinking to show the whole project to someone experienced that could give me some tips to clean/improve the structure so yeah

[slate swan]

That's some issue with your image processing. #media-processing would be a better place for this

I don't know anything about PIL

Also you can just use Asset.read() function instead of making separate requests to download the image

[modern fiber]

Is this really possible?

[cold sonnet]

yes

[slate swan]

yeah sure

[slate swan]

Probably yes but it's just going to do everything twice

Uhh my keycap just broke 💀 rip

[slate swan]

its okay to do that for a REST based bot or a bot which only uses message commands, but never try it with an interaction bot

If I made a bot with 5 features, would you recommend me to use cogs (5 files) or just smash them all into one ugly file?

depends on what the commands are, i categorise commands usually

but still, 5 beautiful files, or one ugly smashed file?

[slate swan]

Depends. Suppose you have 5 commands, help, nukeserver, giveadmin, uwu, game, I'll categorize them accordingly, like help being a utility command, nukeserver and giveadmin are.. uh... critical commands I'd say, and uwu and game are just basic fun commands. Hence 3 cogs

But still cogs are recommendable over just one file, with lets say 40 commands.

That's completely subjective. Some people like to smash all 1000 lines in single file and others like to make a cog for every command. Do whatever you like. Though I'd recommend more than ~10-20 commands should be into cogs

for 40 commands yes, but i wont do a extension file for just 5 commands if they aint too long

also, cog != extension, you can create cogs in your main file itself in case categorising commands is your only need

[jovial dock]

can i make my bot automatically send a message and @ someone each hour?

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop yes

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[jovial dock]

thx

[slate swan]

you can use this decorator on a coroutine, the coroutine will get triggered after each mentioned time

[hidden snow]

hey i cant get slash commands to work, it says import "discord_slash' could not be resolved,
how can i fix this, for reference i did pip install discord-slash commands or whatever the pip was

from discord_slash import SlashCommand, SlashContext
from discord.ext import commands

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!')

@client.command(
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.send('Pong!')

[slate swan]

stop using 3rd party libraries, just use discord.py master or a fork instead

[hidden snow]

what are those?

discord.py is an actual app?

if i move all my code into it would i need to import any discord related modules

[slate swan]

its not an app or something

its a python library

[hidden snow]

so what about my imports are 3rd party?

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32 this is a guide on how you create app commands using discord.py

[slate swan]

the discord_slash library.

[hidden snow]

oh

and the solution is to follow that tutorial

[quaint epoch]

!D discord.ext.tasks.Loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop

class discord.ext.tasks.Loop```
A background task helper that abstracts the loop and reconnection logic for you.

The main interface to create this is through [`loop()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.loop "discord.ext.tasks.loop").

[hidden snow]

@slate swan it still doesnt work

[slate swan]

you didnt even read the gist, you are still using the same library

[hidden snow]

i did not read the gist to be honest

you know, thats my bad, i hate reading, ill hit the books and actual understand what u sent

[cold tide]

Can anyone help me with setting up errors for using commands in the wrong channels?

[hardy wing]

Any ideas?

no line number

[sick birch]

roles.keys() will return just the keys of your dict as a list

[hybrid fjord]

Ah, I see

So just roles, no .keys()?

[sick birch]

!e

my_dict = {
  "hello": "world",
  "some key": "some value",
}

print(my_dict.keys())

[unkempt canyon]

@sick birch :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

dict_keys(['hello', 'some key'])

[hybrid fjord]

makes much more sense. thank you

[sick birch]

If you want both key & value, try .items()

[hybrid fjord]

got it 👍

[sick birch]

!e

my_dict = {
  "hello": "world",
  "some key": "some value",
}

for k, v in my_dict.items():
  print(f"Key: {k} | Value: {v}")

[unkempt canyon]

@sick birch :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | Key: hello | Value: world
002 | Key: some key | Value: some value

[hybrid fjord]

thats actually what i was going for, but recently came back to python so must've got them muddled up

[sick birch]

Common issue, no worries

Also from what you said about "no line errors", I think you should get that fixed. I'm guessing the issue is that in your error handler, you're just doing something like print(e), but a better method would be to either re-raise it (raise e), or use the traceback library to print_exc()

[hybrid fjord]

Ah. Thank you for the tip

any way to have a set option for d.py 2.0 slash commands? for example, one parameter has either "yes" or "no"?

[jovial dock]

would this work? last time i used the top bit of code was a bit ago and i used a different way of coding my bot

[hybrid fjord]

put the if statement before the list

in between the async def and list

[jovial dock]

thanks

[torn sail]

Use typing.Literal

Literal["yes", "no"]

[hybrid fjord]

care to link me a doc or something? been searching for ages

[torn sail]

I’ll see if I can find it

[hybrid fjord]

where would i put this? in the decorator?

[torn sail]

As a typehint for the parameter

[hybrid fjord]

async def self(ctx: discord.Interaction, Literal["yes", "no"]):?

[torn sail]

async def self(ctx, option: Literal["yes", "no"])

[hybrid fjord]

ah, let me try

glowing yellow. any fix?

[torn sail]

not sure what it means

[hybrid fjord]

not defined

[torn sail]

from typing import Literal

[hybrid fjord]

ah

[jovial dock]

is discorx.ext differend from discord, i forgor

[torn sail]

wdym

[cold tide]

Can anyone help me with setting up errors for using commands in the wrong channels?

[jovial dock]

i'm a little bit of an idiot and forgot what the difference is

[torn sail]

they are different modules. discord.ext is part of discord tho

[cold tide]

@torn sail Can you help me?

[torn sail]

yeah sure, do you already have a check for the channel?

[jovial dock]

do i need to do the import commands, task thing as well or does importing discord import the whole thing

[cold tide]

Nope.

[torn sail]

you need both

[jovial dock]

thanks

[cold tide]

Legit just need source loll

[torn sail]

how do you want the check to be applied? all commands, some commands, etc

[cold tide]

so if a user executes the a cmd in the wrong channel it replys with what i want it to say

im not too good with handling errors lol

[hybrid fjord]

@torn sail slash options worked. Much appreciated 🙌

[torn sail]

!d discord.ext.commands.check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.check

@discord.ext.commands.check(predicate)```
A decorator that adds a check to the [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") or its subclasses. These checks could be accessed via [`Command.checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command.checks "discord.ext.commands.Command.checks").

These checks should be predicates that take in a single parameter taking a [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context"). If the check returns a `False`-like value then during invocation a [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure") exception is raised and sent to the [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") event.

If an exception should be thrown in the predicate then it should be a subclass of [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError"). Any exception not subclassed from it will be propagated while those subclassed will be sent to [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error").

[cold tide]

@torn sail So how would i use this?

[torn sail]

I would make the predicate raise a custom error and handle it in an error handler

[sick birch]

Either typing.Literal or from typing import Literal

[terse coyote]

i'm handling err commands.errors.MemberNotFound, and do this with on_command_error. I have 2 this handlers. And when im have this error, my 2 handlers working. How to handling errors like a normal people?

[torn sail]

like this

class WrongChannel(commands.CheckFailure):
    pass


def check_channel(ctx):
    if ctx.channel.id not in [2329834234, 234723423]: # some channel ids here
        raise WrongChannel()

    return True


@commands.command()
@commands.check(check_channel)
async def command(ctx):
    ...

[sick birch]

Sorry.. could you be more clear? Not sure if I'm understanding

[hybrid fjord]

crazy.. has it changed from 1.0 to 2.0?

[sick birch]

add_roles(...)

[torn sail]

add_roles

[hybrid fjord]

bruh wow

[sick birch]

It's plural, you can add multiple roles at once which is why

[hybrid fjord]

yeah makes sense

[terse coyote]

idk how to describe this... sorry

ok, i wanna to handle commands.errors.MemberNotFound repeatedly. How can i do this?

[jovial dock]

is there a better way of doing this? i have the large stupid and cant get it to work. i tried this @discord.ext.commands.is_nsfw() but i cant figure out how to use this

[sick birch]

How exactly would that work? There's no point in handing the same command multiple times

[sick birch]

So you only want a certain command to work in an NSFW-marked channel?

[torn sail]

if you dont use the decorator you can use channel.nsfw within the command which returns a bool

only works for text channels

i think

[cold tide]

@torn sail ```class WrongChannel(commands.CheckFailure):
pass

def check_channel(ctx):
if ctx.channel.id not in [998928038047780935]:
raise WrongChannel()

return True

@commands.command()
@commands.check(check_channel)
async def command(ctx):
channel=discord.Embed()
channel=discord.Embed(title="🤖 ERROR 🚫",description=f"Command used in the wrong channel {ctx.author} !",color=0xffff00)
await ctx.reply(embed=channel)``` when running cmd in wrong channel no error is raised

[jovial dock]

yep

originally the code was just this, but i want to make it only work in my nsfw channel

[sick birch]

So something like

def is_nsfw():
  async def predicate(ctx: commands.Context):
    return ctx.channel.is_nsfw()
  return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command()
@is_nsfw()
async def nsfw_only_command(...):
  ...

@bot.command()
@is_nsfw()
async def another_command(...):
  ...

You can reuse it in as many commands as you want

[cold tide]

Just use this @jovial dock if ctx.channel.id==998928038047780935:

easy lol

It will only excute if cmd is run in the right channel

[torn sail]

do you know if there is there any different between channel.nsfw and channel.is_nsfw()

[cold tide]

@torn sail (sorry for the ping)

[torn sail]

hmm do you have a error handler

[sick birch]

Aside from the fact that it doesn't exist? No

!d discord.TextChannel.nsfw

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.nsfw

If the channel is marked as “not safe for work” or “age restricted”.

[jovial dock]

thanks for the help

[sick birch]

ok i guess it does exist

[cold tide]

Nah i have 0 clue on how to even use error handling

[torn sail]

did u add the command to the bot?

[cold tide]

yes.

[torn sail]

ok just making sure lol

[cold tide]

When i tried in the wrong channel no error was raised.

[torn sail]

oh wait

[cold tide]

The command just didnt work loll

[torn sail]

wait so how do you want it to work

[cold tide]

So if a user executes are certain command in the wrong channel it responds with for example f"ERROR {ctx.author} Command used in wrong channel !"

[torn sail]

ok then you need to apply @commands.check(check_channel) on all the commands you want it on

and then you need to make a error handler

[cold tide]

Mind showing me??

[torn sail]

sure

[cold tide]

i have 0 experience with error handling lol

I have alot of learning to do

[jovial dock]

async def on_message_edit(before, after):
    await before.channel.send(
        f'{before.author} edit a message.\n'
        f'before: {before.content}\n'
        f'after: {after.content}'
    )```
is there a way to fix this? as shown before i have the large dumb and cant do basic troubleshooting because i watch too many tutorials

[torn sail]

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, WrongChannel):
        await ctx.send('Wrong channel')
    else:
        raise error

[cold tide]

Okay ty! And one last question !

[sick birch]

i would like to point out that raise error is very important

[torn sail]

yes

[cold tide]

How would you set up 2 diff commands that raise a error if your missing roles? Without it getting confused

[torn sail]

im not sure waht you mean

!d discord.ext.commands.has_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_role

@discord.ext.commands.has_role(item)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

If the message is invoked in a private message context then the check will return `False`.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") if the user is missing a role, or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure")...

[sick birch]

This check raises one of two special exceptions, MissingRole if the user is missing a role, or NoPrivateMessage if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from CheckFailure.

You can catch those errors

[cold tide]

Btw code you sent me didnt seem to work.

[torn sail]

explain more with "not work" and send the code you have so far

[cold tide]

@bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error): if isinstance(error, WrongChannel): await ctx.send('Wrong channel') else: raise error

No error is raised when i run the cmd in the wrong channel.

[torn sail]

show how you use the check on the commands

[cold tide]

Heres for missing roles

@bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error): error=discord.Embed() error=discord.Embed(title=f" 🤖 ERROR 🚫 ",description=f"{ctx.author} premium role is needed to run this command !",color=0xffff00) await ctx.reply(embed=error)

I need a smiliar one for wrong channel if you understand.

[torn sail]

you should make sure the error is the correct error

if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRole):

[cold tide]

it works perfectly fine though

[torn sail]

and then you can use elif isinstance(error, WrongCHannel):

[cold tide]

whats the use of ^

[torn sail]

it ensures the error raised is for missing a role

[sick birch]

Checks what the error actually is

[torn sail]

otherwise every non related error will also send that

[cold tide]

So thats why when i misspell the cmd it still sends that

[torn sail]

yep

[cold tide]

Ohh okay

hold on lemme add that and try it

[torn sail]

make sure to add

else:
    raise error

[cold tide]

Invalid syntax

[torn sail]

this part should follow the if statements

[cold tide]

Indented?

Or not

[torn sail]

if <something>:
    ...
elif <something>:
    ...
else:
    ...

like this

[cold tide]

Still throws a error

[torn sail]

show code

[cold tide]

@bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error): if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRole): else: raise error error=discord.Embed() error=discord.Embed(title=f" 🤖 ERROR 🚫 ",description=f"{ctx.author} premium role is needed to run this command !",color=0xffff00) await ctx.reply(embed=error)

[torn sail]

the else should be after the stuff in the if statement

[cold tide]

its gonna be sumthing stupid ik

😭

[torn sail]

if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRole):
    # do stuff
    ...
else:
   raise error

[cold tide]

Oh okay

[sick birch]

By the way, raise ... acts as sort of a return so nothing after it would run

[torn sail]

yeah

[jovial dock]

async def on_message_edit(before, after):
    await before.channel.send(
        f'{before.author} edit a message.\n'
        f'before: {before.content}\n'
        f'after: {after.content}'
    )```
when someone or my bot sends a link with an image and it doesn't instantly load, it will send a message thinking it was edited, can i fix it or will it just have to be like this

[cold tide]

Bruhhh

@torn sail nope

I hate discord.py

Do you mind sending me just the complete code???

[sick birch]

You can check to make sure that before and after don't have attachments included

[sick birch]

We can't spoonfeed you, sorry

[torn sail]

i can send you a full example which you can fit into ur code

[cold tide]

i really cant be bothered to sit here and wait dont have much time tbh

[jovial dock]

can ya make it in ooga booga terms?

[sick birch]

Basically check if the message before and the message after doesn't have any attachments (links, images, embeds, etc)

[cold tide]

i need spoonfeeding im not really here to sit down and waste time i just need the code and im gone.

[sick birch]

if not (before.attachments and after.attachments):
  ...

[jovial dock]

thanks, is there a command for the discord.py docs?

[cold tide]

That would help 100% !

[sick birch]

Then unfortunately this isn't the right server for you

        await ctx.send('That was the wrong channel')
    else:
        raise error # re raise the error so we don't eat up every error

make sure that you understand what is happening in this

[cold tide]

Ill make sure i have a read up online on this

But im only in a rush thats all lol and thankyou

[torn sail]

the docs might also have helpful stuff too

[cold tide]

so what does the randomchannel do?

[jovial dock]

where do i import this? i keep seeing that it wants to come from email instead of discord, or does message not exist

[cold tide]

@torn sail

[torn sail]

i dont see a randomchannel

random_command?

[cold tide]

At the (check_channel)

[torn sail]

im not sure i see that but if you mean random_command thats just an example function for the example command

[terse coyote]

if self.client.top_role < member.top_role:
            embed = discord.Embed(description = f'{author.mention}**stop**')
            await ctx.send(embed = embed)

with this⬆️ command dont working. How to check this

[cold tide]

Yeah i did and okay lol

[sick birch]

message needs to be the actual message. What's this inside of? an on_message? A @bot.command()?

[jovial dock]

@bot.event

async def on_message_edit(before, after):
    if not message.attachments:
     await before.channel.send(
         f'{before.author} edit a message.\n'
         f'before: {before.content}\n'
         f'after: {after.content}'
    )```

this is happening

if it doesn't load in immediately then it will detect it as a change so it sends that message

[sick birch]

well yeah there's no such thing as message

you'll want to check both before and after

[jovial dock]

there isn't? all the stuff i see on how to fix these things shows message.____ as a thing

[sick birch]

Yes, though message is usually just a substitution for your discord.Message instance

[jovial dock]

thanks

idk how i've gone this far into my bot without realizing that

[slate swan]

[sick birch]

Can we see the full error?

Looks like parts of it are chopped out

[slate swan]

that is the full error

[sick birch]

Hmmm.. errors are usually much longer. Are you sure?

Because what the error is saying and the code you sent don't seem to match up

[slate swan]

I re-launched vs code and it seems to fix the problem

[slate swan]

I dont have the word "contains" ANYWHERE in my code

[sick birch]

Strange. Maybe VSCode is just being strange

At least the restart fixed it. Hopefully it doesn't happen again

[slate swan]

Yeah I guess so

@client.command()
@commands.is_owner()

it doesnt work, no errors, no nothing

is there a way to also get my friend's Discord profile picture every 15 minutes and send it along with the message?

every 15 minutes it @crimson bridge my friend and i want it to also send his pfp

sorry whoever i @ ed

[sick birch]

You can get their profile picture using discord.Member.avatar

!d discord.Member.avatar

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.avatar

property avatar```
Equivalent to [`User.avatar`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User.avatar "discord.User.avatar")

[sick birch]

make sure you actually use the instance, not the class

[eternal fox]

Try:

@tasks.loop(minutes=15)
async def called_once_a_day():
    message_channel = bot.fetch_channel(999841816809582642)
    user = await bot.fetch_user(yourfriendsidhere)
    await message_channel.send(f"{user.mention} , {user.avatar_url}")

[jovial dock]

sounds like smart person talk to me

[jovial dock]

thanks, i now can annoy my friend more efficently

[slate swan]

bot.fetch_channel() has to be awaited

it's also called every 15 mins, idk if that's intentional?

[jovial dock]

very

[jovial dock]

how do i add aliases?

to commands

[paper sluice]

in the decorator, you can use the aliases keyword argument, it takes an iterable

[jovial dock]

i like your funny words magic man

[paper sluice]

its just

@...command(..., aliases=[...])

[polar granite]

What to do?

Its replit

Yes

Yes

Wait giving you replit multiplier link

How to do that?

@languid wagon see dm

I share replit link

[eternal fox]

Yes

[slate swan]

why is that?

not true, IDs are related to the time which the snowflake was created, so it can be random

[slate swan]

they generate like tokens with there timestamp right

[slate swan]

kinda

yeah

hehe bits go brrrrr

[vocal snow]

do global slash commands still take an hour to register?

[slate swan]

they should be instant now

[vocal snow]

okie ty !

[slate swan]

👍

[slate swan]

yeah

why are new ids getting a new digit? running out of possibilities?

and what makes the ids longer?😅 😭

im not sure what youre referring to😅

ah cuz unix timestamps start from jan 1970 and its all in seconds or?

im not very familiar with unix's timestamp system

[hasty loom]

can anyone send any gh repos which use the official discord.py library for implementing slash commands?

[slate swan]

yep

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32 if you just want examples this gist got decent ones

true, but most of the forks suck 🚶‍♂️ including pycord

[hasty loom]

yeah i am reading that but im a little confused bc in the cogs example its constructing the bot and running it in the cog

[slate swan]

yeah its totally possible to do that as well, cogs can be placed in an extension file or the main file itself

[hasty loom]

ohh yeah i forgot abt that

[slate swan]

for an extension file you would be bot.add_cog inside a setup function, whereas in the main file you can do add_cog directly

[hasty loom]

from what i understand in the docs, you have to use @app_commands.describe() to set the params for the slash commands, but how do i specify the data type of them?

[placid skiff]

the error is explainfull, the aiohttp session must be initialized inside an async function

[hasty loom]

in the library i used before, you could specify the variable name, display name, type, and whether it is required or not, but here i can only seem to specify the variable and display name

[slate swan]

you typehint the arguments

[hasty loom]

oh ok

and how do i specify whether its required or not

arg: typing.Optional[<type>]
``` or ```py
arg: <type> | None
``` works too if you're on 3.10 or if you ```py
from __future__ import annotations

Hi all

[dusky pine]

hi, my name is All

[slate swan]

that's obly for adding descriptions to the arguments, read carefully

[slate swan]

sheesh did I forget to update the gist brb

[robust fulcrum]

@commands.Cog.listener("on_message")
    async def message(self,message):
        api  = os.environ['key']
        message = message.content
        analys = perspective(message,api)
        toxicity = analys.toxicity()
        await message.channel.send(f"toxicity of your message is **{toxicity}**")

How to fix this error?

[slate swan]

you are doing message = message.content so

[robust fulcrum]

Oh

[robust fulcrum]

I need to change the variable?

[slate swan]

yes

change it to smth like message_content

[robust fulcrum]

Oh ty

[robust fulcrum]

How can I make my bot not listen to bots messages?

[slate swan]

add a if message.author.bot: return at the top of your listener

[paper sluice]

why even store it at that point lol

[slate swan]

idk

I added hybrid commands examples to the gist atlast
https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32#hybrid-commands

https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32#missing-access-error

[paper sluice]

lol, i hate hybrid commands

or atleast dpy's implementation

[hasty loom]

im trying to rewrite the bots main file to make it work with d.py v2, but im getting this error and have no idea what to do https://hst.sh/uvojokixaj.py

i followed this example https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/dc50736bfc3340d7b999d9f165808f8dcb8f1a60/examples/advanced_startup.py

i know that but like for the main function

for asyncio.run(main()) i cant await that cus its not in an async function

yeah

[dusky pine]

why are you sending the toxicity EVERY SINGLE MESSAGE

[cerulean folio]

Guys I'm getting a bit error log that starts with

2022-07-22 09:46:28 WARNING  discord.http We are being rate limited. POST https://discord.com/api/v10/channels/855852976630923274/messages/999975711190306836/crosspost responded with 429. Retrying in 1167.26 seconds.

anyone knows where this come from?

[cold sonnet]

too many API calls/requests

or just replit

[misty nexus]

I do have Intents included like this:

intents = disnake.Intents(messages=True, members=True)
bot = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix=".",
    intents=intents
)
bot.add_cog(Main(bot))
``` But guild.members is completely empty, I can't even get the thumbnail (guild icon) or any data at all. ?

[cerulean folio]

not that, I migrated it on a virtual machine on google cloud

[cold sonnet]

where are you getting data

[cold sonnet]

then it's the first variant

[slate swan]

because you have only messages and members intents

[misty nexus]

I need others?

[misty nexus]

    @commands.command(help="Get information about server", aliases=["serverinfo"])
    async def server(self, ctx: commands.Context) -> None:
        """Shows you information about this server."""

        guild = ctx.guild

        offline_members = 0
        online_members = 0
        print(guild.members)
        for member in guild.members:
            member: disnake.member.Member

            if member.status != disnake.member.Status.offline:
                online_members += 1
            else:
                offline_members += 1

        embed = Embed(
            title=guild.name,
            colour=COLOR,
        )
        embed.set_thumbnail(guild.icon if guild.icon else 'https://cdn.discordapp.com/embed/avatars/1.png')
        embed.add_field(name="Total Members", value=guild.member_count, inline=False)
        embed.add_field(
            name="Members Status",
            value=f"⚪ Offline: {offline_members}\n🟢 Online: {online_members}",
            inline=False,
        )
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[slate swan]

how else do you think you would be able to acess a server's icon

intents = disnake.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
``` something like this would work

[misty nexus]

But I CAN get the icon without any Intents passed

[misty nexus]

ah... let me try

[slate swan]

that's what you think, but when you dont pass any intents, discord.Intents.default() gets passed.

[merry cliff]

remember to check the members intent on the dev portal too

[cold sonnet]

that would raise an error

[misty nexus]

It totally worked. thanks 🎉

[cold sonnet]

what's your code that did this

any task? anything in on_ready?

[robust fulcrum]

..?..

[dusky pine]

i mean, for every message that's sent, you reply

which is kind of annoying

[cerulean folio]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/negawanona
this is the error logs

the code that did this is bot.run(token)

i have no clue about where this come from

[robust fulcrum]

I have made change in it I just made that for startup ;-;

[misty nexus]

How do I make the time I get from user.joined_at or user.created_at a time stamp?

they looks like:

[slate swan]

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

discord.utils.format_dt(dt, /, style=None)```
A helper function to format a [`datetime.datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "(in Python v3.10)") for presentation within Discord.

This allows for a locale-independent way of presenting data using Discord specific Markdown...

[misty nexus]

That worked. thanks

[gilded gust]

Hey, I've got a bot in py-cord. I have an interaction and want to respond to it twice, but I get an error ```
discord.errors.InteractionResponded: This interaction has already been responded to before
