@slate swan I'm a beginner and I'm kinda confused with this because I made a bot.py file where I put a function to steup the bot and load the cogs and made a cogs folder with the other commands. Am I supposed to put this code in the bot.py or the command files?

[slate swan]

How can i use a list of number like ```py
list = [123123, 342423, 3123123]
#then use that here
print(list)
#printing them in order?

[slate swan]

command files I didnt have different files in the gist so I simply skipped the different files thing

[pastel aspen]

this is what the bot.py file looks like, do I put something here? in your example you are creating a bot but I create mine here

example of command file

[slate swan]

i need help

im on replit and i keep getting this werid error

hmm

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

You either uploaded a .txt file or entered a message that was too long. Please use our paste bin instead.

[slate swan]

i keep getting this error https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cibemafuxe

list = [123123, 342423, 3123123]

print(list)
``` how can i print each number individually

[vale wing]

That's like very basic python

[pastel aspen]

use a loop

[hazy oxide]

Kill your terminal

Type kill 1 in shell

[slate swan]

youtube wont teach that i looked verywhere

[pastel aspen]

no you didn't

[vale wing]

Free python courses will

[slate swan]

i did

[vale wing]

!resources also

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[slate swan]

i dont needd that to finish my project

[hazy oxide]

You mean like 123123, 342423, ...

[odd mango]

id say not to use replit tho 🚶

[slate swan]

yep

[hazy oxide]

Ya

[slate swan]

oh wait that fixed it

[slate swan]

yes

[hazy oxide]

You can use .join

", ".join(list)

[slate swan]

alr

[vale wing]

Making a project without language knowledge is kinda weird don't you find

[odd mango]

anyone good with buttons and view?

[vale wing]

Yeah

[odd mango]

if i am not subclassing view

how can i disable buttons on timeout

[vale wing]

You shouldn't define on_timeout by attribute assigning

Use subclassing it's not that hard

[odd mango]

yeah yeah i know but i have already dont this

[odd mango]

also subclassing for 2 buttons is meh

🚶

[vale wing]

You don't say

[vale wing]

Take a look at these things https://github.com/Exenifix/AIAS/blob/e731bf0c7f08b14e48f575c690f646ff510d8802/utils/views.py#L32-L76

Subclassed but still easy to use

[odd mango]

i just need some on_timeout thing, the commented one dosent work

[vale wing]

You just need to think how to subclass it to use conveniently

Lemme show

[odd mango]

it would be amazing if i could do it in command itself though

since i will find everything in one place

doing this right now

    @commands.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def droptb(self, ctx):
        button1 = ui.Button(label="✅", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple,)
        button2 = ui.Button(label="❌", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple,)
        async def button_callback1(interaction):
            if interaction.user != ctx.author:
                await interaction.response.send_message(content="fuk off bruv", ephemeral=True)
            else:
                await self.bot.db.exec_write_query("DROP TABLE users")
                await self.bot.db.exec_write_query("DROP TABLE userss")
                await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed2)
        button1.callback = button_callback1

        async def button_callback2(interaction):
            if interaction.user != ctx.author:
                await interaction.response.send_message(content="fuk off bruv", ephemeral=True)
            else:
                await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed3)
        button2.callback = button_callback2
    
        embed1 = discord.Embed(title="u doin it bruv?")
        embed2 = discord.Embed(title="u did it bruv")
        embed3 = discord.Embed(title="what a pussi bruv")
        view = ui.View(timeout=30)
        view.add_item(button1)
        view.add_item(button2)
        # view.on_timeout(DISABLED=True)
        await ctx.send(embed=embed1, view=view)```

[terse coyote]

how to get from this list int member id?
[<Member id=35345345353535 name='PLATINADS' discriminator='7895' bot=False nick=None guild=<Guild id=545345345345 name='server' shard_id=0 chunked=True member_count=7>>]

[odd mango]

what variable are you printing?

[vale wing]

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, buttons: list[discord.ui.Button], *, timeout=180):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
        for button in buttons:
            self.add_item(button)

    async def on_timeout(self, inter)
        ...

And then you can use it like

view = MyView([discord.ui.Button(...), discord.ui.Button(...)], timeout=30)

Preferably to put the thing into a separate module and import it when needed
@odd mango

[terse coyote]

timed_out_members = [member for member in ctx.guild.members if member.is_timed_out()]

[vale wing]

Doesn't this look more readable

And less complicated

[odd mango]

member.id

[slate swan]

how do i make discord.py dm someone on join

[vale wing]

And as for those checks in callbacks you can just define interaction_check in subclass and never have other users pressing the button

[odd mango]

fetch_channel(userID)

[vale wing]

Listen for on_member_join event and then just member.send()

!d discord.on_member_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_join

discord.on_member_join(member)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") joins a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This requires [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") to be enabled.

[odd mango]

this is a thing?

😂

[vale wing]

DM channels have different IDs from user IDs afaik

[vale wing]

Remove discord.

[odd mango]

no i use my id in my bot while dming me errors

works fine

[vale wing]

It's typically bot.get_user(id).send(...)

[odd mango]

mhm

[slate swan]

it dosnt work

when i join server i dont get dm

[vale wing]

I once tried to send the DM message with raw discord API and just putting user ID to endpoint didn't work, the actual dm channel id was different

[odd mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[vale wing]

Do you have intents enabled

[slate swan]

no

[vale wing]

!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.

[slate swan]

how i do that

[vale wing]

You need member intent

[odd mango]

that is my id

[vale wing]

It's get_user dude

[odd mango]

oi f

[vale wing]

Lmao

[cold tide]

Is there any java discord servers?

[vale wing]

discord.gg/java

[cold tide]

Thankyou!

[slate swan]

it didnt work

heres my code

[odd mango]

turn them on in dev portal too

[cold tide]

Yeah all intents must be on

then your bot should run fine !

[vale wing]

Not necessarily all

[cold tide]

i mean i turn all on lol

[vale wing]

He only needs default + members

[odd mango]

all intents = useless ram consumption

[cold tide]

yeah ig

[odd mango]

u just need the 3 in dev portal

[cold tide]

yeah lol

I have alot of ram so i dont gotta worry

32gb of ram 😍

[odd mango]

i got 8 😔

[vale wing]

Are you hosting on local pc

[slate swan]

it didnt work still

[odd mango]

but i host on 1gb ram

[cold tide]

Send us your code.

[odd mango]

so ☠️

[cold tide]

Dang

[slate swan]

import os
from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("I'm in")
    print(client.user)

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    await member.send("Welcome!")

token = os.environ.get("DISCORD_BOT_SECRET")
client.run(token)```

[vale wing]

Don't use client

[cold tide]

yeah

[vale wing]

Use bot for everything

[odd mango]

lmaooooo

[slate swan]

ok

[cold tide]

Its @bot.command since youve defined bot=commands.Bot

😭

[vale wing]

And I recommend using bot.listen() instead of bot.event

[cold tide]

yeah way better

[slate swan]

it works

[cold tide]

Ight enjoy!

[vale wing]

Small bots aren't really RAM consuming btw

[cold tide]

Yeah my bot takes up like 250mb

hardly anything

[vale wing]

If coded well

[cold tide]

@vale wing how much ram you got??

[vale wing]

That's a VPS it has like 3 or 4 gb

[cold tide]

Nice

I got 36gb of ram lol

[vale wing]

On my PC I got 16 gb

[cold tide]

Nice

On my phone i got like 8 gb of ram

[vale wing]

Very nice

[cold tide]

Yupp

btw is there any html servers??

[slate swan]

Web development* Yes there will be.

[cold tide]

Okayy

[slate swan]

#web-development will be one place to start, but it all depends what you want to build in this web development.

But that is also off-topic, so you better asking either in above channel or an off-topic one 🙂

[cold tide]

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

When someone types a invalid cmd this shows up ^

is MissingRoles not a function?

[vale wing]

1. isinstance isn't used like this
2. on_command_error isn't used like this
3. MissingRoles is an exception
4. None of code after raise will be executed

[cold tide]

😭😭

[vale wing]

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

isinstance(object, classinfo)```
Return `True` if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument, or of a (direct, indirect, or [virtual](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class)) subclass thereof. If *object* is not an object of the given type, the function always returns `False`. If *classinfo* is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other such tuples) or a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union) of multiple types, return `True` if *object* is an instance of any of the types. If *classinfo* is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") exception is raised.

Changed in version 3.10: *classinfo* can be a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union).

Similar names: 2to3fixer.isinstance

[cold tide]

Can you show me what it should look like??

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.on\_command\_error

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

The default command error handler provided by the bot.

By default this logs to the library logger, however it could be overridden to have a different implementation.

This only fires if you do not specify any listeners for command error.

Changed in version 2.0: `context` and `exception` parameters are now positional-only. Instead of writing to `sys.stderr` this now uses the library logger.

[cold tide]

what should it look like then??

[vale wing]

Look at the docs I linked and figure it out ig?

[cold tide]

Dang okay lol

[vale wing]

This as well if you don't know about exceptions https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/errors.html

[odd mango]

how's this

class Buttons(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, *, timeout=30):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)

    @discord.ui.button(label="✅", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple)
    async def button_callback1(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction_check(interaction)
        await self.bot.db.exec_write_query("DROP TABLE users")
        await self.bot.db.exec_write_query("DROP TABLE userss")
        embed2 = discord.Embed(title"u did it bruv")
        await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed2)

    @discord.ui.button(label="❌", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple)
    async def button_callback2(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction_check(interaction)
        embed3 = discord.Embed(title"what a pussi bruv")
        await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed3)

@commands.command()
@commands.is_owner()
async def droptb(self, ctx):
    embed1 = discord.Embed(title="u doin it bruv?")
    await ctx.send(embed=embed1, view=Buttons())```

[vale wing]

Perfect except embeds definition

[odd mango]

oh why

[vale wing]

The functions can't see embeds you defined in other functions

[odd mango]

ugh

[vale wing]

Or as classvars which you did

[odd mango]

okay wait

[shrewd apex]

self.embed2 or self.embed3

[vale wing]

So basically the embeds must be defined inside callbacks

[odd mango]

ok now?

[vale wing]

And a useless edit view=self, you didn't do anything to a view

[shrewd apex]

eh u could use self also but yeah fibe

fine*

[odd mango]

oki

[odd mango]

right

[cold tide]

Function to give certain users a role???

tryna make a mute command

[vale wing]

Better to use timeout imo

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

await add_roles(*roles, reason=None, atomic=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[odd mango]

okay take a look now

[vale wing]

Yeah this is correct but now the init is kinda useless

[odd mango]

oh and do i add author check in callback?

[odd mango]

oh what else then

[vale wing]

!d discord.ui.View.interaction_check override this

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.interaction\_check

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

A callback that is called when an interaction happens within the view that checks whether the view should process item callbacks for the interaction.

This is useful to override if, for example, you want to ensure that the interaction author is a given user.

The default implementation of this returns `True`.

Note

If an exception occurs within the body then the check is considered a failure and [`on_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View.on_error "discord.ui.View.on_error") is called.

[vale wing]

Just remove it, your subclass will automatically use init from superclass which functionally doesn't differ from yours (besides the timeout default value)

[odd mango]

welp i will let it be then if it functionally dosent differ

have a final look now

check if i am doing interaction check right and all

[cold tide]

How would i add a role to a certain user??

async def mute(ctx,user:discord.User,*,reason="No reason given !"):
	Reason="add here"
	mute=discord.Embed()
	mute=discord.Embed(title=f" Muted by {ctx.author}",description="Reason:",reason,color=0xffff00)
	await add_roles("Muted")
	```

what i got so far

[placid skiff]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

await add_roles(*roles, reason=None, atomic=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[odd mango]

how do i disable button on interaction or on timeout

[cold tide]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_role("mod")
async def mute(ctx,user:discord.User,*,reason="No reason given !"):
	Reason=None
	mute=discord.Embed()
	mute=discord.Embed(title="🤖 Mute Command !",description=f"Muted by {ctx.author}",color=0xffff00)
	await ctx.reply(embed=mute)
	await add_roles("Muted",reason=None,atomic=True)

its not giving the user the role

[wispy sequoia]

discord.ui.View.stop()

check it out

!d discord.ui.View.stop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.stop

stop()```
Stops listening to interaction events from this view.

This operation cannot be undone.

[cold tide]

Someone help

[glad cradle]

your embed has the same name of your function so your function is being overwrited, also Reason != reason

[cold tide]

But wb adding a role???

@glad cradle

[glad cradle]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

await add_roles(*roles, reason=None, atomic=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

[cold tide]

It doesnt work when i fixed it @glad cradle

[glad cradle]

for your case it's await user.add_roles(...)

i think you should use member object instead of user object

[cold tide]

Nope @glad cradle

Not working

@bot.command()
@commands.has_role("mod")
async def mute(ctx,user:discord.User,*,reason=None):
	Reason=None
	mutee=discord.Embed()
	mutee=discord.Embed(title="🤖 Mute Command !",description=f"Muted by {ctx.author}",color=0xffff00)
	await ctx.reply(embed=mutee)
	await add_roles("Muted")
	```

Can you show me what it should look like?? @glad cradle

[wispy sequoia]

Idk if it's much related to discord.py, but I have a subclass of commands.Bot where I edited the function close() with some other functions to close the connections to the aiosqlite database. this means that they get closed if the function is called, but does it also work on a script interruption?

[shrewd apex]

try it

[wispy sequoia]

how

if I just press the exit button to the window

it just interrupts it

[shrewd apex]

just add a print statement

see if there is some on event close or something idk

[wispy sequoia]

no there isn't

if I call that close function the bot goes instantly offline on ds

but if I only close the script it takes around 1/2 minutes

[slate swan]

right

idk why that's so confusing

[wild spoke]

Why bot does not detect commands of freshly added cog

can somebody help in vc in 30 mins?

[austere vale]

  @commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_invite_delete(self,invite):

    embed.timestamp=datetime.datetime.utcnow()
    await self.bot.get_channel(933978399280599080).send(embed=embed)
```is there a way to change the embed so i can add who deleted in the invite?

[torn sail]

you would have to check the audit logs

!d discord.Guild.audit_logs

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.audit\_logs

async for ... in audit_logs(*, limit=100, before=..., after=..., oldest_first=..., user=..., action=...)```
Returns an [asynchronous iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator "(in Python v3.10)") that enables receiving the guild’s audit logs.

You must have the [`view_audit_log`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.view_audit_log "discord.Permissions.view_audit_log") permission to use this.

Examples

Getting the first 100 entries:

```py
async for entry in guild.audit_logs(limit=100):
    print(f'{entry.user} did {entry.action} to {entry.target}')
```...

[torn sail]

!d discord.AuditLogEntry.user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.AuditLogEntry.user

The user who initiated this action. Usually a Member, unless gone then it’s a User.

[torn sail]

!d discord.AuditLogEntry.action

[unkempt canyon]

discord.AuditLogEntry.action

The action that was done.

[torn sail]

!d discord.AuditLogAction.invite_delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.AuditLogAction.invite\_delete

An invite was deleted.

When this is the action, the type of target is the Invite that was deleted.

Possible attributes for AuditLogDiff...

uhh can you help me fix it?

[slate swan]

see error and read docs

[glad cradle]

yes but, it's a function attribute? What is it?

[torn sail]

you have to iterate through the audit logs async for entry in invite.guild.audit_logs(action=nextcord.AuditLogAction.invite_delete) and you can check the user with entry.user

[austere vale]

oh an async inside an async

[torn sail]

property with a setter

[glad cradle]

ohh

thx

[slate swan]

does anyone know how

get a channel in a slash command?

[austere vale]

i got it! thank you so much

you can use your bot or client object

are you inside a cog?

This is my script, but the bot does not seem to turn on?

await ctx.send('pong')

@bot.command()
async def stats(ctx, player):
if player == "RandomDemon":
await ctx.send("RandomDemon - Wins: 0 - Losses: 0")

bot.run('[my token]]')

[glad cradle]

it's

bot.run('TOKEN_HERE')

without []], you need to pass it as string

[flint heart]

I know, I just put that there so you wouldnt see the token

The brackets werent in there before

[slate swan]

Any error?

[flint heart]

It works now, but I didn't change anything????

[glad cradle]

😶

you probably haven't waited long enough

[flint heart]

Aight I got another question. Could I have another text file in the same folder as the py file, which information can be retrieved from? E.g, the text file says "RandomDemon - Runs: 5 - Hits: 3", and the script will fetch that info and send it?

[valid glacier]

Hey, lets say that I have two commands, I need to achieve that if any of those two comands is called, then I need to start a timer and in a specific time none of these commands can be executed, how can I achieve that? The code is underneath.

async def hello(ctx):    
  await ctx.send("Hello")

@client.command()
async def goodbye(ctx):    
  await ctx.send("Goodbye")

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=discord.ext.commands.BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`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") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

anyone?

[indigo pilot]

Quick question, can i have a buttons view and dropdown view on a message? Two views total

[quaint scaffold]

You can have 5 items per view, and one view per message

[indigo pilot]

Ughhhhh rip, this will be a pain then as i just relised that after coding everything and relised oh wait how do i put two views in a message
Looks like i gotta change smthing lmao, thanks

[sick birch]

You can have one view, but you can also have both buttons and dropdowns in the same view

[indigo pilot]

Oh wait, really?

[sick birch]

5 rows per view, 5 items per row. Exceptions: dropdown menu counts as 5 items, so 1 dropdown menu per row

Total of 5 dropdowns, or 25 buttons

[indigo pilot]

Well thats helpful but still pain to edit, i litterly have like 25 views rn that all loop thru eachother with args being passed thru eachother everywhere 😭

tyty for helping

[sick birch]

Is it the one with the quotes and disabling them?

[indigo pilot]

Yep

[sick birch]

Right. I can see why that'd be a pain

[indigo pilot]

Currently only half done about 20 views so far

😭

Litterly aids, and i had to go thru and edit all the args bc i had one named "channel" wihtout knowing that would overwrite interaction.channel

Anyways have a good day and thanks again for helping

O wait i do got onen more question i might as well ask before ripping my brain out

https://femboi.best/0AF8obC7

So this grabs a artists portfolio and sorts starrred images and unstarred images into two lists then adds them together so starrred images are at the top of the dropdown right

Got any ideas how i could limit it to 5 images? Where starred images are always the first 5 but if theres only 3 starred images lets say, it grabs two other images that arnt starred

Wait oh i think i can do something where when both lists add up to 5, break

If len(starredlist + everythinglist) == 5:
break

Wait no

As that wont sort it out so it picks starred first

[sick birch]

You're on the right track. Add them together, and get the first 5

(starred_list + everything_list)[:5]

[quaint scaffold]

Firstly, you'll want to rename your variables, go for the snake case convention of word_with_spaces_replaced_as_underscores, and a meaningful name, it makes it so much easier to read, and for others to help you.

Secondly, as Robin said, beat me to it lmao

[indigo pilot]

You think those var names are bad? God you havnt seen the worst of it

when i cant think of a var name i either
a) keyboard smash
b) write out a whole sentance without any spacing 😭
such a pro dev move !

[sick birch]

Also dropdowns can have 25 options in them, so it might be more sensible to get the first 25 with the starred images up top

But as that's a design choice I'll leave that up to you

[indigo pilot]

True and i have that with /portfolio view

But this is for whne a quote gets sent, so its just a simple 5 images for the user

As there will be multiple quotes and faster for the user

Thats why starred are first too so the artist can pick out there best art to show up first

[quaint scaffold]

Ahh, I see. Though, respectfully, that's not something you should be proud of to tell others. It makes it difficult for you and others.

[sick birch]

There are definetely worse things to be proud of.. this is minor, easy fix, though a bit of effort

[indigo pilot]

When your pulling a all nighter and its 4 am, all i want is to just get it done lol
brain dosnt work right

[sick birch]

Once you do fix it, I'd suggest getting a linter of sorts and set up strict rules

[indigo pilot]

But yeah pycharm is yelling at me for it

Ill prob go thru after and fix it all

[indigo pilot]

A what?

[sick birch]

Like flake8. It helps you make sure your code is consistent with pep8 or any other rules you may have set (proper naming, max line length, etc)

[quaint scaffold]

Are type checkers part of linters too?

[indigo pilot]

Ah, not sure how to do that tho lmao

[pure sparrow]

What command do you code for your bot rn ?

[indigo pilot]

?

[pure sparrow]

what can your bot do ?

[quaint scaffold]

PyCharm has it built-in, but there are a couple you might find useful to disable or edit, e.g. max line length to 125 or another number you like, instead of the default 80 something

[indigo pilot]

Mine? Just a commission thiny, got portfolio cmds and a ticket system lol. Not done tho

[sick birch]

Maybe. But linters don't really concern themselves with types

[pure sparrow]

Oh nice

[indigo pilot]

Oh and paypal invoices im proud to talk about as that was pain !

[pure sparrow]

amazing ! And it’s a discord bot or nothing like that ?

[indigo pilot]

Ah yeye, thanks

The fact i got like 200 warnings for var spelling rn prob isnt a good start tho

Lmao

[indigo pilot]

Disc bot

[pure sparrow]

ok ok that’s really cool

[indigo pilot]

And gonna be honest i got zero clue how this would work but im still just gonna try it lmao

Anyways thanks for the help, prob be back within a hour after two more enery drinks and wanting to rip my skin off, pce

[sick birch]

First part is simple. It just adds to 2 lists together, you can probably guess how that works. The [:5] is a little more interesting. It's slice notations, which follows this syntax:

my_list = [...] # pretend this has some items in it
my_list[start:stop:step]

start - the index to start at, starting at 0
stop - the index to stop at, exclusive.
step - the number of indexes to skip

in our example, [:5] is equivalent to [0:5:1] which means start at index 0, go until index 4, and skip by 1. This effectively gets the first 5 elements

Interesting things you can do are [::-1] which reverses a list, equivalent to [0:-1:-1] Negative values indicate the last element. -2 would indicate the 2nd to last element, -3 third to last element, you get the point.

[indigo pilot]

Ooo, cool haha

Thanks!

Oh yeah and another question rq sorry
https://i.leaked-your.info/Y9PMH7zW

Did i mess something up here or, as https://discord-edating.com/bnfE5iYC

0 clue why im getting that

Interaction.guild.get_channel is getting the ticket channel
and thats being set to a var object, to get the message from

[sick birch]

get_message is not a thing

[indigo pilot]

Lol

Oh wait what

[sick birch]

It'd be almost impossible to cache that

[quaint scaffold]

You could use bot._connection._get_message()

[sick birch]

But you're not supposed to be using that as it's internal

[quaint scaffold]

I'm quite sure. For e.g. dispatch isn't documented, but safe to use

[indigo pilot]

Wait oh its fetch_message

[quaint scaffold]

Sometimes you don't need fetch_message, and you could construct a PartialMessage

One less API request :)

[sick birch]

What exactly do you do with the message?

[indigo pilot]

Just edit it, the message is the quote

[quaint scaffold]

A PartialMessage will suffice then

[indigo pilot]

The code is just getting the message and editing the artists quote

[sick birch]

Oh then you don't need the full message

!d discord.TextChannel.get_partial_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.get\_partial\_message

get_partial_message(message_id, /)```
Creates a [`PartialMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.PartialMessage "discord.PartialMessage") from the message ID.

This is useful if you want to work with a message and only have its ID without doing an unnecessary API call.

New in version 1.6.

Changed in version 2.0: `message_id` parameter is now positional-only.

[indigo pilot]

Ah

Once again something i never knew

Thanks

[quaint scaffold]

discord.py has some wonderful docs, they're really pleasant to read and make sense, I strongly suggest you take a look at em'

[indigo pilot]

I do alot lol, just some things i dont even know what to search for. The get message thing tho yeah i prob should of just searched for that myself

[sick birch]

For example if you look here, you'll see that there is no such thing as get_message

The closest thing you have is get_partial_message, which has these methods:

[indigo pilot]

Ikik i was getting it confused for fetch_message

Wait, how would i have a view for buttons and a dropdown?

Or did i missunderstood you

[sick birch]

You'd just use @discord.ui.button and @discord.ui.select, nothing special

[indigo pilot]

Wait oh

Would i just pass both into here then or?
https://discord-edating.com/NuOw60mZ

[cold sonnet]

bro that's the weirdest website I've seen in a while

[sick birch]

Oh if you're subclassing discord.ui.Select like you are, you could just do self.add_item(UserViewQuote()) inside your view subclass

[indigo pilot]

Yeah but what about for the buttons then

[sick birch]

Same thing with buttons

self.add_item(MyButtonSubclass())

[indigo pilot]

https://i.leaked-your.info/652dOsEI
https://discord-edating.com/mM427plD
this was the only way i learned how to make dropdowns and buttons lmao

[indigo pilot]

Ohh okay

Didnt know that, tyty

[sick birch]

This is a slightly more advanced version. If you're not doing anything special and your views are static, there's an easier way

[indigo pilot]

Please do tell, as for the 50 thousond buttons and dropdowns there are

I would love to know

[sick birch]

I think in your case you could benifit from the easier method

Here, I can write a quick example for you

[indigo pilot]

Tyty that would help alot LOL

[safe herald]

does anyone know a good tutorial for learning how to make python bots/.

[sick birch]

class MyView(discord.ui.View):

  @discord.ui.button(label='Click me!', style=discord.ButtonStyle.green) # regular button stuff
  async def button_callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
    # handle button press here

[odd mango]

in my this loop, it is supposed to ping user just once, still it keeps pinging user while deltime >= datetime.now() >= record.time

    @tasks.loop(seconds=1)
    async def background_loop_new(self) -> None:
        await self.bot.wait_until_ready()

        all_records = await self.bot.time_db.all_records()
        for record in all_records:
            channel = self.bot.get_channel(record.channel_id)
            deltime = record.time + timedelta(seconds=5)
            if deltime >= datetime.now() >= record.time:
                await channel.send(f"<@{record.user_id}>, your drop cooldown is over.")
                await self.bot.time_db.delete(record.user_id)
            elif datetime.now() >= deltime:
                await self.bot.time_db.delete(record.user_id)```what could be the problem?

[indigo pilot]

Ooooooo

Tysm! I never knew this

Ill use that for what im doing with the portfolio images + accept quote button haha

[odd mango]

it is supposed to ping once and delete the db so it can't ping again even while deltime >= datetime.now() >= record.time

[sick birch]

Easiest way would be to add a break inside the if statement

[odd mango]

what would that do?

[sick birch]

It'd break out of the loop once it pings the user and deletes from the db

[odd mango]

interesting, but loop will repeat itself again in next second

wouldn't it ping again then?

[indigo pilot]

Well if you deleted it from the db, then they wouldnt be in the db to ping again right?

[odd mango]

it is still supposed to delete yet is pinging

[indigo pilot]

Well check, did it really delete from the db or

[odd mango]

it keeps pinging so for the fact it didn't delete

but it lets me register with primary key again without a duplicate key error so it gets deleted at some point

[indigo pilot]

I know for button i need to add a custom_id, but is there anything for the select menu? (so it wont timeout)

[sick birch]

Yes, custom id works for select menus too

I think this example I wrote might help you: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/dropdown.py

Unfortunately I didn't show how to use custom_id in it, but it's still a decent resources nonetheless

[indigo pilot]

Yeah but do i need it/anything else? So i tdosnt timeout

[sick birch]

Other the specifying the actual timeout? no

[indigo pilot]

Okay, tyty

[indigo pilot]

Yo robin // anyone else

https://discord-edating.com/Tl1Jt9Dr any ideas how i can pass options thru?

[pliant gulch]

At the decorators scope you don't have access to self

So you cannot do @deco(self.attr)

What are the options supposed to be? Are they procedural

[indigo pilot]

There just a list of dropdown options

Passed in from a button

[indigo pilot]

Yea ik thats why i am asking xD

Litterly the only way i can think of is global vars but.. thats disguating

[pliant gulch]

Instead of using the decorator to construct the Select menu you could make a subclass

Then in that context using __init__ it'll have options if you pass it from the UserQuote's class constructor method

Then just manually add it view add_item

!d discord.ui.View.add_item

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.add\_item

add_item(item)```
Adds an item to the view.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

[indigo pilot]

Yeah thats what i do with other things just didnt wanna do it with this as i got a button too that needs to be in the view

Guess i can addd two items i think

[safe herald]

how would i make a variable specific to a player?

[haughty nova]

Are there somebody else that have problems with setting up your discord bot on heroku?

[prisma wedge]

how do i make my bot send a message when a specific user in my server is mentioned? this is just for fun in my server

[indigo pilot]

With on_message

[prisma wedge]

just start the beginning with "on_message", nothing else before? sorry i'm using discord.py after a year, i'm rusty

[indigo pilot]

On_message is a event
so do the event
then if message == "what ever you want":
do stuff

Heres the docs for onmessage

!d discord.on_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_message

discord.on_message(message)```
Called when a [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") is created and sent.

This requires [`Intents.messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.messages "discord.Intents.messages") to be enabled.

Warning

Your bot’s own messages and private messages are sent through this event. This can lead cases of ‘recursion’ depending on how your bot was programmed. If you want the bot to not reply to itself, consider checking the user IDs. Note that [`Bot`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot "discord.ext.commands.Bot") does not have this problem.

[prisma wedge]

oh ok thank you so much

[indigo pilot]

Np

^ any1?

[safe herald]

how would i make a variable specific to a user?

[slate swan]

If I wanted to make a bot that when you send a command it fetches a quote from a quote generating website, how would I got about doing that?

[prisma wedge]

async def on_message(message):
    if (message.guild.id == 988568558739013703) and (657011579115667479 in message.mentions.id):
        await message.channel.send('Give Detraits Admin')```

what's wrong here?

[prisma wedge]

do you know?

[indigo pilot]

Whats the error

[sick birch]

It's not

[indigo pilot]

Hello robin

[cerulean folio]

anyone knows about this error?

[sick birch]

how'd you block for 2 hours lol

[cerulean folio]

no idea what is blocked exactly, nor how this happened :o

[quaint epoch]

time.sleep(6491)

[slate swan]

💀

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

(657011579115667479 in message.mentions.id) is wrong

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[slate swan]

interate in the list: (657011579115667479 in message.raw_mentions)

try that

oh wait nope

[pliant gulch]

Replace message.mentions with message.raw_mentions

Using just mentions will be a list of User | Member's

[hybrid fjord]

is the "anonymous" parameter not valid? it's not showing up on the bot...

[pliant gulch]

raw_mentions is just the ID

[slate swan]

alr alr

[slate swan]

@prisma wedge

[slate swan]

wdym its not showing up, can you show an image of what's wrong

[slate swan]

[hybrid fjord]

maybe true/false isn't a valid option data type?

nope thats not it

[slate swan]

i cant help

[hybrid fjord]

😔

@slate swan

- discord.app_commands.errors.CommandSignatureMismatch: The signature for command 'ask' is different from the one provided by Discord. This can happen because either your code is out of date or you have not synced the commands with Discord, causing the mismatch in data. It is recommended to sync the command tree to fix this issue.```

im confused

fyi the whole bot worked before i added the anon option

[slate swan]

how do you add slash commands?

[indigo pilot]

So.. this didnt work for some reason, i added 6 portfolio images for testing but its showing all 6 instead of 5. Hhmm

        everythingelselist = []

        for imageid in artistdict['portfolio']['images']:
            if (starredlist + everythingelselist)[:5] == 5:
                break
            if artistdict['portfolio']['images'][str(imageid)]['starred']:
                #stuff
            else:
                #stuff

Right?

[sick birch]

What's this part supposed to do? Some context would be helpful

[pastel aspen]

I heard discord will be removing prefix commands, is that true?

[indigo pilot]

Remember frombefore lol, the only get 5 images. Where to only get starred images first

Wait

Oh

Nevermind thats my fault i see

Sorry

[pliant gulch]

Discord.py got me acting funny when reading some of the stuff they do

[sick birch]

Well, short answer: yes. Long answer: no, discord can't really "remove" prefix commands. What they are doing is making a change that will make it almost impossible to make prefix commands. Verified bots that are in > 80 guilds will not get message content intents. Which means that when you get a new message created event, it won't have the content of the message. The only thing you know is that someone sent a message, and you know who that someone is, what time they sent it at, and some others but you won't know what the message actually is. And since prefix commands at their core work off the message content, this all but makes them impossible to work with

[quaint epoch]

!d asyncio.exceptions.TimeoutError

nani

[pastel aspen]

So this only really affects the big bots, right? If I want to make a personal bot for my server with prefix commands I still can?

[quaint epoch]

is bot gas lighting me?

[pliant gulch]

!d asyncio.TimeoutError

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.TimeoutError

exception asyncio.TimeoutError```
The operation has exceeded the given deadline.

Important

This exception is different from the builtin [`TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TimeoutError "TimeoutError") exception.

[pliant gulch]

Also what was the point of that

[sick birch]

Yep. Just make sure you turn it on in your bot's dashboard, as I believe it's turned off by default. You'll also need to enable it within your code. Verified bots have to put in an application to discord requesting the intent, and why they need it, so compared to that clicking a button and adding in an extra line of code should not be that big of an issue

[pastel aspen]

okay, thanks

[indigo pilot]

Ive been here so much today, 😭

how can i get a local image to a embeds image?

[slate swan]

turn all of this on

[pastel aspen]

yup turned it all on

[slate swan]

is it working?

[pastel aspen]

nope

so we're two

[slate swan]

yea

[shrewd apex]

remove the two lines below __init__ u have already declared it in super()

[pastel aspen]

wel, it worked. Now I got another problem

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "clear" is not found```

this is the command I was trying to use

[shrewd apex]

did u sync?

in setup_hook add await self.tree.sync()

[pastel aspen]

it was with "bot" and I changed to self, but still the same error

[shrewd apex]

remove guild

[pastel aspen]

still nothing

[shrewd apex]

also last line of setup_hook add return await super().setup_hook()

[pastel aspen]

nothing

I'm almost giving up on hybrid commands

[paper sluice]

dpy doesn't implement anything there, so no use really

[pliant gulch]

Also if the only thing you subclass the Bot/Client for is overriding setup_hook you can just do ```py
bot = Bot(...)

@bot.event
async def setup_hook() -> None:
... # do stuff

bot.run(...)

[cerulean folio]

do you know what it is? :o

[paper sluice]

lmao

[pliant gulch]

Especially the stack part

[paper sluice]

yea lol

[dusky pine]

wtf

why are you placing your bot in dist-packages

[hollow osprey]

that question isn't related to Discord bots. ask in #python-discussion or in a help channel (see #❓｜how-to-get-help)

[echo wasp]

ok mod

[slate swan]

can bots use custom emojis in their about me?

[valid glacier]

How can I add optional command arguments with prefix?

like command -option1 -option2 and then use the -option to call another function within command

[shrewd apex]

just make sure to set a default value to parameters

[cloud dawn]

I dont see why not

[slate swan]

yeah it works

for some reason animated emojis are really small though

[cloud dawn]

Setup hook isnt a event

[honest shoal]

you need to enable message content intent I think

[leaden seal]

sorry I haven't coded in a while, it's been a while since I made a discord bot, how do I do that, AKG?

[honest shoal]

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(value=0, **kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

not really

that's if you're talking about commands.Bot

[eternal fox]

Also you need to enable message_intents in discord developer portal too

[leaden seal]

ok

I gave it adminstrator in the developer portal

[vale wing]

This code is questionable

[vale wing]

Permissions are not intents, the intents are located under bot tab

[dusky pine]

why do you have so many comments

[vale wing]

And why are they caps 😳

[leaden seal]

I took it from a website to start my bot

[vale wing]

Nice another copypaster

[leaden seal]

probably should look up a more recent tutorial

[leaden seal]

well like I said I haven't coded in a while this is just to get me started

[vale wing]

Yeah that's totally a better thing

[leaden seal]

I am not gonna be copying other bots

[vale wing]

!resources there's a guide about dpy iirc

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[leaden seal]

but yk you need to learn the basics to even make a bot

ok thanks

[vale wing]

Actually it's here https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/discordpy/

[leaden seal]

ok

[cold sonnet]

why are you doing that

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    # PRINTS HOW MANY GUILDS / SERVERS THE BOT IS IN.
    print(f"SampleDiscordBot is in {len(bot.guilds)} guilds.")

[eternal fox]

Oh well i just copied this guy/girl's code and added some stuff to it to try make it work

[leaden seal]

Lets goooooo

it's running

thanks @vale wing

[vale wing]

Np (not sure how I helped but ok)

[leaden seal]

the website you gave had an updated version of how you can run your bot and I tried it and it's now running
And btw about hosting your bot, what do you think about using heroku?

[vale wing]

That's a bad idea although I didn't try it myself

[leaden seal]

why is using heroku a bad idea?

I used to use it, it works alright

[vale wing]

@leaden seal

[leaden seal]

what should i use then?

[eternal fox]

i use replit

[vale wing]

VPS

There's info about them in pins as well

[leaden seal]

like Virtual Machines?

[vale wing]

Yeah

[eternal fox]

oh well the bot i made in replit has over 1000+ lines of code and its still working

[vale wing]

1000+ lines in one file or?

[eternal fox]

yea one file

[vale wing]

You'd better rewrite it to cogs and modules then

Everything in one file is inefficient and hardly maintainable

[eternal fox]

yee,thanks i'll try doing that

[vale wing]

Gl

[leaden seal]

how much does a VPS cost?

[dusky pine]

depends on your provider

[vale wing]

Galaxygate has options for 3$/mo, some services provide free trial

[leaden seal]

ok well I'll use heroku until I am sure to buy a VPS

[vale wing]

Like digitalocean, azure and aws. Good thing about aws is that it gives free tier server for 1 year but a bad thing is it's not very user friendly

beginner friendly

[slate swan]

Not AWS.

Unless you have a technical background, AWS, Azure and GCP should be avoided for things like this, seen way to many people rack up bills in the 1000s.

[leaden seal]

what's the difference between a setup and a requirements file?

and which one should I use?

[placid skiff]

the setup is a method of the Client or Bot class, it is used to load Cog objects which are created by subclassing the Cog class inside a file, it is a way to organize the directory of your project
For the requirements, if you mean the requirements.txt file, it is a file which can be used with the command pip install, specifying that directory the pip command will install all the package declared inside the requirements file

[leaden seal]

ok

[limber bison]

is (command.cog) best way to create bot commands ? or i missing something op ?

[placid skiff]

command.cog is a parameter which returns the Cog if the command belongs to a cog or None if there isn't one

[limber bison]

can i apply check to h complete class 🤔

or only to decorators ?

[placid skiff]

wdym?

[limber bison]

gimme a sec

[cold sonnet]

for command in cog.commands:
    command.add_check(check)

[leaden seal]

how do I check the version of a pip installed package like discord.py?

[cold sonnet]

this you mean?

[stable mulch]

Hey guys, I'm trying to make my Discord bot join the voice channel I am in, however, my bot will not join despite everything else in the function working as intended, I think it is just the await channel.connect() that is problematic and 'connected' will not print.

    @commands.command()
    async def join(self, ctx):
        if not ctx.author.voice:
            await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} You are not connected to a voice channel. Please join a voice channel before using this command.")
            return
        else:
            print('yes')
            channel = ctx.message.author.voice.channel
            print(channel)
            await channel.connect()
            print('connected')

[placid skiff]

pip freeze in the shell

[supple thorn]

You could do

pip show [package_name]

[leaden seal]

ok thanks

[placid skiff]

decorators are better tbh

[limber bison]

i want this @commands.check(is_owner) to whole class at onle

once*

can i ?

[stable mulch]

Nevermind, turns out I didn't install the discord.py[voice] package. https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/755086077051797514.webp?size=64

[limber bison]

or i have to use it in every decorators

[real grail]

What does he want from me? (Updated to 2.0)

[limber bison]

is it not in main pakage ?

discord.py ?

[stable mulch]

Apparently not

[limber bison]

whats voice client file then 🤔

[stable mulch]

wdym?

[placid skiff]

from discord.ext.commands import CheckFailure, check, Context

class MyCustomCheckError(CheckFailure):
  def __init__(self, message):
    self.message = message
    super.__init__(message = self.message)

def my_custom_check():
  def predicate(ctx: Context):
    if ctx.author.id == ctx.guild.owner_id:
      return True
    raise MyCustomCheckError("You're not the owner")
  return check(predicate)

#when declaring a command
@commands.command()
@guild_only()
@my_custom_check()
async def your_command(ctx: Context):
  #this will raise MyCustomCheckError if the caster is not the owner of the guild

[supple thorn]

Blvck coming in with the haymaker

[real grail]

What is tracemalloc?

[supple thorn]

You probably didn't await a coroutine

[supple thorn]

add_cog is a coroutine now

You're on discord.py 2.0

[real grail]

Yes

[supple thorn]

As we are laughing at someonr in vc for flirting with someone with a boyfriend i'll leave this for other peeps

[real grail]

And... ?

[limber bison]

like i have 9 different your_commands in class , mean i have to type @my_custom_check() 9 times in each command right ?

just @my_custom_check()

btw whats @guild_only() ?

[supple thorn]

await it

[supple thorn]

Makes command guild only

So it's not usable in dms

[limber bison]

oh kk

[supple thorn]

!d discord.ext.commands.guild_only

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.guild\_only

@discord.ext.commands.guild_only()```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that indicates this command must only be used in a guild context only. Basically, no private messages are allowed when using the command.

This check raises a special exception, [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") that is inherited from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

If used on hybrid commands, this will be equivalent to the [`discord.app_commands.guild_only()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.guild_only "discord.app_commands.guild_only") decorator. In an unsupported context, such as a subcommand, this will still fallback to applying the check.

[limber bison]

got it

[supple thorn]

Here the docs

If you wanted it

[real grail]

How? If I do it outside of async def it will swear

Or... Should this be done in on_ready?

[vocal snow]

setup_hook prolly

[real grail]

async def setup_hook?

[vocal snow]

!d discord.Client.setup_hook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.setup\_hook

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

A coroutine to be called to setup the bot, by default this is blank.

To perform asynchronous setup after the bot is logged in but before it has connected to the Websocket, overwrite this coroutine.

This is only called once, in [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.login "discord.Client.login"), and will be called before any events are dispatched, making it a better solution than doing such setup in the [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready") event.

Warning

Since this is called *before* the websocket connection is made therefore anything that waits for the websocket will deadlock, this includes things like [`wait_for()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.wait_for "discord.Client.wait_for") and [`wait_until_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.wait_until_ready "discord.Client.wait_until_ready")...

[real grail]

Thank

[limber bison]

How can I make command chennal specific ?

ctx.channel ?

[real grail]

For the command to work in the same channel?

[limber bison]

No no I want command work in only one channel

Simple words i want channel check

[real grail]

if ctx.channel.id == <id>:

or

create custom decorator

[real grail]

I still don't quite understand. Are there any examples?

[vocal snow]

class Client(discord.Client):
    async def setup_hook(self):
        # do setup here

[real grail]

Thank you, I'll try

[placid skiff]

You can make a command group and use the deco only to the father command, it will work anyways

[terse coyote]

i have file text.py

import discord
test_embed = discord.Embed(description = guild id)

and my main command file

from discord.ext import commands
from text import test_embed

class MyCommand(commands.Cog):
  def __init__(self, client):
 ...

  await ctx.send(embed = test_embed)
 ...

how to get guild id in text.py?

[placid skiff]

Parameters

[terse coyote]

?

[placid skiff]

[cold sonnet]

ew

[white aurora]

👀

[vocal snow]

you could subclass Embed too

And do some cool stuff

[cerulean solstice]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

class boi_innit(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self,client):
      self.client = client
      self.data = []
    
    @commands.command()
    async def afk(self, ctx, *args):
      msg = ' '.join(args)
      self.data.append(ctx.author.id)
      self.data.append(msg)
      await ctx.send("AFK has been set!")

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self, message):
      for i in range(len(self.data)):
        if (f"<@{self.data[i]}>" in message.content) and (not message.author.bot):
          await message.channel.send(f"<@{self.data[i]}> **AFK:** {self.data[i+1]}")
          return None
          break

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_typing(self, channel, user, when):
      if user.id in self.data:
        self.data.index(user.id)
        self.data.remove(self.data[i+1]) #it shows a red line under[i+1]
        self.data.remove(user.id)
        await channel.send(f"{user.mention} Welcome back!")

def setup(client):
  client.add_cog(boi_innit(client))

so when i type the bot does not responf with welcome back
how can I fix it?

[real grail]

Why doesn't member.is_avatar_animated() work in 2.0?

[vale wing]

1. Use dict for this, what tf for is adding 2 separate types of data into single list and then doing all those i+1
2. For checking the afks you might want to use message.mentions which contains a list of Member objects which is more convenient to operate with

[cerulean solstice]

nvm i got it fixed

btw how does a music system work in discord.py?

[vocal snow]

!d discord.VoiceClient.play

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceClient.play

play(source, *, after=None)```
Plays an [`AudioSource`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.AudioSource "discord.AudioSource").

The finalizer, `after` is called after the source has been exhausted or an error occurred.

If an error happens while the audio player is running, the exception is caught and the audio player is then stopped. If no after callback is passed, any caught exception will be logged using the library logger.

Changed in version 2.0: Instead of writing to `sys.stderr`, the library’s logger is used.

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/migrating.html?highlight=is_avatar_animated read the docs, they are very useful.

with slash commands, is there a way to make it run in all guilds?

cant run it at the moment, but i got this from the github

[real grail]

Found ❤️

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py

if i get api unbanned i'll mess around

top kek

tried setting the id to 0 and got a forbidden error

so cringe 😢

cant find much

that sucks

[slate swan]

@vernal sphinx do you mean like sending two messages with one command

[vernal sphinx]

sending two embeds in message

the thing is, it kinda looks ugly on phone when sending multiple embeds in different messages. It appears as new messages which i kinda annoying so if the embeds are clumped up, it would like nicer

[slate swan]

define first embed as e1 and second one as e2

await ctx.send(embed=e1)
await ctx.send(embed=e2)

thats how i would do it

[vernal sphinx]

ohhhh okay, i added them as arguements before

ty sir!

[slate swan]

thank me when it works 😄

[vernal sphinx]

haha

[shrewd apex]

huh? why not just use kwarg embeds=

then put in a list of embeds

[slate swan]

help pls i was bored so i thought why not start coding on my discord bot again but it doesnt work anymore im 100% sure it did 2 months ago

[slate swan]

gamers 😭 how to get slash commands to work in all servers

[eternal fox]

Can u send your full code?

[slate swan]

sure

[eternal fox]

Alr

[slate swan]

1 sec

[eternal fox]

Ok

Okk

[slate swan]

i kinda lost it... my folders are 1 big mess

[eternal fox]

Oh damn

[slate swan]

btw my selfbot is also broken

is there some discord update that messed it up?

[eternal fox]

Arent self bots not allowed

[slate swan]

yes... but i was playing around whit it

and now its broken lol

[eternal fox]

Oh well the newest version is 1.7.3 but im using the 2.0 version(rewrite)

[swift pumice]

you can get banned for self bots btw

[eternal fox]

yeah

[slate swan]

ye never used it in servers only in private servers whit friends

[swift pumice]

still isnt allowed

[slate swan]

why not tho

[velvet compass]

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[velvet compass]

Selfbotting is very much against Discord's ToS

[swift pumice]

i didnt write the discord tos

[slate swan]

how can i fix my discord bot whit that?

[eternal fox]

Oh well if you want to install the 2.0 vers just do this in the terminal: pip install git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

after you install it you might wanna add some intents to your code

[slate swan]

alr ty ill try that

[eternal fox]

Okok gl gl

[slate swan]

man i get close then i forget what i want to do

get it to work with one guild, but i want the commands to work on all guilds

[slate swan]

btw is it fine if you just download the latest git?

i didnt have it

[eternal fox]

I guess so,yes

[pastel aspen]

my code keeps giving this error

Ignoring exception in command None:
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "clear" is not found```

main.py

the command in question

[mild zephyr]

this is something like 100 ppl may have asked, but...
which lib is the "best" one now? dpy disnake, or idk anythingelse ?

[dusk quest]

try

import os, discord, datetime

idk if its proper but it looks better

hmmm ok, works for me idk

[slate swan]

OMG I GOT IT

import discord
from discord import app_commands

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

client = discord.Client(intents=intents)
tree = app_commands.CommandTree(client)

@tree.command()
async def test(interaction: discord.Interaction):
     await interaction.response.send_message("install gentoo")

@client.event
  async def on_ready():
     await tree.sync()
     print("broken")


 client.run("HJjhjdsds&&89ds8s88")

now my bot has a cool badge

[eternal fox]

Try to use fetch instead of get

[warped mirage]

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def set_prefix(ctx):
    prefix = "!"
    file = "prefix.txt"
    if prefix == "!":
        await ctx.send("Prefix set to !")
    else:
        await file.read("prefix") 
       ``` idk i need help making a set prefix command multi guild, using files aka txt, can someone help me#

[dull terrace]

what do you think the fastest image format for discord embeds is?

out of these assuming the same size: eps, jpeg, jpg, pdf, pgf, png, ps, raw, rgba, svg, svgz, tif, tiff

[real grail]

How to "reload" the bot with command?

[slate swan]

wdym? like restart the bot?

[warped mirage]

guys i need help making a set prefix command for multiguild, using txt

[real grail]

yes, i tried bot.close() and bot.start()

[slate swan]

https://github.com/sprmcell/spbot/

wrong libk

[slate swan]

JPEG/PNG are the fastest when it comes to loading times, JPEG being the faster one but lower quality. PDF isn't an image file but more of document.

[slate swan]

this works for me

    @commands.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def restart(self, ctx: commands.Context):
        await ctx.send("`$ restarting bot...`")
        os.system("clear")
        os.execv(sys.executable, ["python"] + sys.argv)

lemme send u a version that works without cogs

    @bot.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def restart(ctx):
        await ctx.send("`$ restarting bot...`")
        os.system("clear")
        os.execv(sys.executable, ["python"] + sys.argv)

[eternal fox]

ok try doing this instead:

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
 if member.guild.id == theguildid:
  welcome_channel = await bot.fetch_channel(channelid)
  await welcome_channel.send(themessage)

[dull terrace]

jpg is probably just faster due to size though right?

[slate swan]

@real grail hope this helps

[eternal fox]

Oops wait

i messed up the indentations

[eternal fox]

there @native heart

[slate swan]

i need to rewrite this

[real grail]

No...

[slate swan]

wdym no?

[real grail]

Isn't there a built-in function in discord.py for this?

[slate swan]

idk i just use that

works 🤷‍♂️

[slate swan]

Possibly, my assumption is its faster due to its lower quality image it produces, so you could have a gif, png, jpeg, etc. all at the same KB, but JPEG will load faster due to the lower quality images it produces compared to other image extension types, it maybe better for #media-processing your question though buddy as I don't really have experience in that field.

I only know this due to some digital art I produced in the past 🙂

[ionic edge]

except function not working here

it is not creating channel if

channel is not there

[eternal fox]

can u show the code before that

[ionic edge]

@eternal fox

[eternal fox]

okok hmm

[ionic edge]

if member.guild.id == 997901679657754704:
welcome_channel = client.get_channel(channel id)
await welcome_channel.send(f':DiscordDesigns1: | Welcome to Discord Designs {member.mention}!')

[cold sonnet]

Free ratelimits for sale!!!!!!!!!

and you have 3 on_ready events

[slate swan]

😄 i'll take some!

[cold sonnet]

a couple of unnecessary imports

[cold sonnet]

Rate limits? Well, you just gotta use this event

@tasks.loop(seconds=30.0)
async def my_background_task():
    await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching,name="Discord Designs"))
    await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching,name="Orders!"))

[ionic edge]

hey can you help?

[eternal fox]

i'll try

[cold sonnet]

and I assure you'll be ratelimited

well it's there

do print("var", var)

[polar granite]

Where?

[cold sonnet]

or is that not in your code

the site package has print "var", var

I suppose the site package db has some issues

with python versions

[polar granite]

I didn't understand

[slate swan]

@real grail works 🤷‍♂️

[cold sonnet]

The package you're importing...

db

[polar granite]

I already installed db

[cold sonnet]

but it uses python2

[shrewd apex]

...

[polar granite]

Then how to install it?

pip install db

[cold sonnet]

I have no idea where that package came from

[shrewd apex]

!pypi db

[cold sonnet]

never heard of it

[unkempt canyon]

db v0.1.1

Databases for Humans

[shrewd apex]

0-0

[cold sonnet]

"for Humans" well thanks bro

[shrewd apex]

looks super sus

[slate swan]

should i go full slash commands or still keep normal commands

[cold sonnet]

the latest version is from 2014

[shrewd apex]

hehe

[cold sonnet]

please don't use that package

[polar granite]

Ugh

[slate swan]

"the updooter"

[cold sonnet]

it's from 2014

😭

[cold sonnet]

what even is this

[cloud dawn]

lol bottom right

[cold sonnet]

I do want a better computer

[cloud dawn]

Go for it

[shrewd apex]

lol

[cold sonnet]

also a faster internet

I saw a tiktok that said we can have internet faster than light speed with some atomshit that reacts to the change of another atom faster than light speed

I'm gonna do that shit

[slate swan]

Ah good old tik tok. 😄

[cold sonnet]

valid source

[shrewd apex]

or maybe we just need a smarter dani😔

[slate swan]

"i saw a tiktok"

[dull terrace]

awaiting an async function is non blocking right

[shrewd apex]

tiktok sucks all bs there

[cold sonnet]

please capitalize my name, I find this very disrespectful

[dull terrace]

even if there are blocking things inside?

[shrewd apex]

kek

[slate swan]

replace dani

[shrewd apex]

no it's blocking

[cold sonnet]

nobody of you has read the Paul Street Boys

educate yourself

😑

[dull terrace]

so no one would be able to use the bot until the await is done?

[slate swan]

"nobody of you"

[cold sonnet]

Imma leave

[shrewd apex]

use loop.run_in_executor for blocking stuff

[slate swan]

🚎

[shrewd apex]

the command especially

[slate swan]

fat W

[shrewd apex]

it will queue up

[slate swan]

does await just mean

anything past me wont happen until im done

[cold sonnet]

??

[shrewd apex]

that defeats the purpose of async doesn't it🗿

[cold sonnet]

no that's the exact opposite

[shrewd apex]

it means u wait till i am done others can do their stuff and u will get what u asked me to do once i am done with it

[dull terrace]

would it work just to put the whole function in

thread.start()```

[slate swan]

so its kinda like a child async?

[shrewd apex]

basically does stuff without interfering and blocking others doing the same task

[dull terrace]

or does every blocking thing have to be done like that

[pliant gulch]

I wouldn't really suggest using threading module when in discord.py
