I'd just use a check instead tbh

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @still swan!

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

[still swan]

...

[slate swan]

!paste please use this for long 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:
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.

Hey @still swan!

[still swan]

how..

[slate swan]

just open the link, paste the code, save it, copy the url, and send it here

[still swan]

but the error is:

TypeError: unsupported type annotation <class 'bot.converters.Member'>

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'bot.exts.moderation.verification_cog' raised an error: TypeError: unsupported type annotation <class 'bot.converters.Member'>
Exception ignored in: <function _ProactorBasePipeTransport.__del__ at 0x0000013162EEE280>

then the bot is closed: RuntimeError: Event loop is closed

[west veldt]

um tbh it was a fun command thingy like i text like -bam
and it says user#0000 has been banned

is it possible?

[still swan]

also that

[west veldt]

you know how to do something like that

[slate swan]

is that a slash or hybrid command?

[still swan]

@bot.command()
async def bam(ctx, Member: discord.Member):
  await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author} has been banned"}

[slate swan]

if yes, custom converters can't be used, atleast this way

[still swan]

slash

[slate swan]

yeah then converters won't work

[west veldt]

in embed..

[still swan]

oh

[still swan]

thx

[slate swan]

just use the converter inside the command function

[still swan]

@bot.command()
async def bam(ctx, Member: discord.Member):
  await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(description=f"{ctx.author} has been banned"))

[still swan]

ty

[short relic]

from http import client
import discord
from discord.ui import Button
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.components import *



bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="=")
@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Ready to use!")

        "Choose your order",
        components = [
            Button(style=1, label="Hello")
        ]
    )

can someone help the button didnt work ofr me

[west veldt]

i was trying to make a fun command thingy like i text like -bam
and it says user#0000 has been banned

but it not working somehow

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='-', intents=discord.Intents.default())

@bot.command()
async def bam(ctx, Member: discord.Member):
  await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(description=f"{ctx.member} has been banned" , color="7289DA"))```

this my code

[sick birch]

Not working how? Errors? What does it do?

[west veldt]

no response when command is run

-bam @user

[slate swan]

you have a bot.run("token") right

[west veldt]

then no responce

[west veldt]

yea
i think something is wrong with that ctx.member

[slate swan]

wait

do you want it to actually ban the user mentioned?

[short relic]

from http import client
import discord
from discord.ui import Button
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.components import *



bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="=")
@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Ready to use!")
    await bot.change_presence(activity = discord.Activity(type = discord.ActivityType.playing, name = "Buy stuffs at Magic Shop" ))
    DiscordComponents(client)

@bot.command()
async def buy(ctx):
    await ctx.send(
        "Choose your order",
        components = [
            Button(style=1, label="Hello")
        ]
    )

is this the correct code to create button? or am i wrong in some parts

[slate swan]

@west veldt

[west veldt]

no just say user has been bammed

[slate swan]

and what does it do now?

[west veldt]

no response

[slate swan]

that looks like a response to me

[west veldt]

it was like this when i had ctx.auther instead of ctx.member

and that colour thing

[slate swan]

oh

[west veldt]

now i changed it then no response

[slate swan]

that's weird

What's your code

[west veldt]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='-', intents=discord.Intents.default())

@bot.command()
async def bam(ctx, Member: discord.Member):
  await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(description=f"{member.name} has been banned" , color="7289DA"))```

here

[slate swan]

check your terminal for errors, you can't expect someone else to read your code and predict errors

[west veldt]

um

[slate swan]

Member: discord.Member
here you define Member as uppercase and refer to it in your code as member without capitalization. if you checked the terminal, you would have seen an error telling you that member is not defined

[west veldt]

discord.ext.commands.errors.MissingRequiredArgument: Member is a required argument that is missing.

[slate swan]

how are you invoking the command?

@bot.command()
async def bam(ctx, member: discord.Member) -> None:
  await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(description=f"{member.mention} has been banned", color=0))

@west veldt

[sick birch]

Member should be lower case

Follow proper naming conventions

Also let's not spoonfeed please

[slate swan]

why should it be lower case

snake_case naming conventions?

[sick birch]

Python variables need to be snake_case

[slate swan]

what is that

[sick birch]

lowercase your variables, and use underscores instead of spaces

[slate swan]

Is it 100% necessary to upgrade pip when there is a new version?

[slate swan]

no

[slate swan]

my pip is currently screaming at me to update so no

python -m pip install -U https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py
why's this not unpacking

the other time i updated my pip it broke😔

[slate swan]

I just upgraded it

[slate swan]

async is a keyword and can't be applied like that. asyncio also has no async attribute, what are you trying to do?

[slate swan]

you forgot git+url

"forgot"

yes when forget means something other than forget

[short relic]

i dont know bro

i didnt know what i do but like

[slate swan]

😭

[short relic]

every single script i execute i got that error

how do i fix

[slate swan]

man asyncio.async is not a thing, please explain what you're trying to do. i find it hard to believe that you are writing python aimlessly

[short relic]

for real this is not my code i just saw it in error and hover through it

[slate swan]

oh nvm i just re-read your code, i think you're looking for this:

!d asyncio.create_task

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.create\_task

asyncio.create_task(coro, *, name=None)```
Wrap the *coro* [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine) into a [`Task`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task "asyncio.Task") and schedule its execution. Return the Task object.

If *name* is not `None`, it is set as the name of the task using [`Task.set_name()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task.set_name "asyncio.Task.set_name").

The task is executed in the loop returned by [`get_running_loop()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloop.html#asyncio.get_running_loop "asyncio.get_running_loop"), [`RuntimeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#RuntimeError "RuntimeError") is raised if there is no running loop in current thread.

[short relic]

uhh

maybe ill just try reinstalling the app 😢

[slate swan]

so it's not your code or your script?

[slate swan]

what app

? this just got real confusing real fast

Does anyone know bots like restcord or letoa

Would it be hard to make one

[short relic]

visual studio code

[short relic]

yea

i executed my script then i go to the error output

i hover to the directory and found it

[slate swan]

to my knowledge, restcord is a library (in php 👀) for the discord api. as for letoa, yeah it's probably difficult

[slate swan]

it looks to me like you might have fiddled with the installed package

just re-install discord.py with pip or whatever package manager you use

[gaunt mortar]

Hello, is it possible to modify the amount of time you have to interact with a button ?

[short relic]

i think i messed up because i install a lot of unknown package

Maybe ill have to uninstall all

@slate swan btw can you guide me how to make buttons in discord python

[slate swan]

There’s prolly alot of oath resources out there

[slate swan]

i stopped using discord.py a while ago and don't have experience with the new interactions api, sorry

[slate swan]

and I don’t wanna copy other code (skid) as this is a project I wanna independently make

[short relic]

Oh ok

Thanks for the help though

Appreciate it

[slate swan]

👍

[slate swan]

oath resources..?

[slate swan]

Docs

[slate swan]

you can look at the examples on the gh repo - https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples/views

any query is welcome!

[slate swan]

yes it is possible, certainly

[slate swan]

you can always interact with a button unless its disabled

Is there role:discord.Role parameter in v2?

[slate swan]

why wouldnt it be?

[slate swan]

cause i get errors for some reason

desc = f'{role.mention}\n\n**Users:** **({len(role.members)})**\n'

on role.mention and len(role.members)

can you show more code? we don't know what role is being defined as or whether its value is changing

why to show more code since i have errors only on that line?

what are the errors then?

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Context' object has no attribute 'mention'

[slate swan]

^ goes back to this

[slate swan]

role is parameter

it's likely you're doing something like this:

@commands.command(...)
async def foo(role: discord.Role):
    ...

This is wrong, ctx needs to be the first element. You may also be missing self as a parameter.

man i can't help you if you don't let me.

dude

i just forgot to add self parameter

im smart 👍

ok cool

your issue is resolved then?

yes

[slate swan]

In v2 , how can i put the buttons one below the other?

[silk fulcrum]

!d discord.ui.Button

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button

class discord.ui.Button(*, style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2>, label=None, disabled=False, custom_id=None, url=None, emoji=None, row=None)```
Represents a UI button.

New in version 2.0.

[silk fulcrum]

there is a row argument

so you put row=0 for one button and row=1 for the second

and the second will be below

@slate swan

[slate swan]

thanks

@silk fulcrum can i put a button inline with the button which is row=1?

[silk fulcrum]

yes? what's the problem with that?

[slate swan]

like this

[slate swan]

because when i add row=2 , its underneath the row=1 button

[silk fulcrum]

of course

rows are rows

0th row is above 1st row

2nd row is below 1st row

[silk fulcrum]

@button(..., row=0)
@button(..., row=0)
@button(..., row=0)

@button(..., row=1)
@button(..., row=1)
@button(..., row=1)

[slate swan]

you can have same row value for multiple buttons

multiple => 5 to be a exact

[silk fulcrum]

not more than 5 x 5

that is sed cus I wanted a nice minesweeper

[slate swan]

yes, 5 rows with 5 components
a selectmenu is considered to be a complete row itself

[slate swan]

I got it! Thanks

[silk fulcrum]

well, this still looks pretty nice

[slate swan]

How many lines did this take you

[silk fulcrum]

why do you want to know

[slate swan]

Um whjy not

[silk fulcrum]

cus I wrote this when I was complete noob, I dont remember but I think it can be about 5000000 lines

[slate swan]

bro what

[silk fulcrum]

that's why im rewriting that bot

[slate swan]

what's the logic

not more than 100 lines ( without autoformat )

[silk fulcrum]

well idk, can wrap it up into that + depends on library

[silk fulcrum]

oh wait I forgot one game

it's - 284

[dull terrace]

is there any way i could get python to do something any time an exception happens in any part of my code?

[silk fulcrum]

217 - 73 = 144

[dull terrace]

i want to make the bot dm me when an exception happens

[slate swan]

there's an error decorator

[slate swan]

on_error event

[silk fulcrum]

error handlers

[slate swan]

that

my bot.py is more than 400 lines for some reason

[dull terrace]

for every part of my code...

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.on_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.on\_error

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

The default error handler provided by the client.

By default this logs to the library logger however it could be overridden to have a different implementation. Check [`on_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_error "discord.on_error") for more details.

Changed in version 2.0: `event_method` parameter is now positional-only and instead of writing to `sys.stderr` it logs instead.

[sick panther]

Hi, how can I get the message object of an interaction?

[silk fulcrum]

gahh I thought I had more

[slate swan]

an interaction is not a message?

[slate swan]

there;s no commands tho

it just wraps the default bot class

[silk fulcrum]

yes

[dull terrace]

that wouldn't catch everything, just errors in using the library right

[sick birch]

I don't think there's a central place to catch all errors

[dull terrace]

wouldn't there be some way with logging or something

[silk fulcrum]

who knows, maybe there is some on_all_error hidden in some lemonsaurus.ext.commands.app_guilds lib

[silk fulcrum]

logging is logging, not handling errors

[slate swan]

yeah but everything's connected to your client after the runtime so that should work for almost everything

[dull terrace]

hmmm

[slate swan]

did you guys know that you can attach an else statement in a for loop?😳

[silk fulcrum]

@vale wing did u give nerd bot to anyone?

[sick birch]

yes

[silk fulcrum]

😳

[sick birch]

You can also attach it to a try/except

[slate swan]

its cursed like hell

[dull terrace]

yeah works for while as well

[slate swan]

😳

[sick birch]

Not necessarily cursed, it's pretty handy

[slate swan]

you can do that even with try - except

i never knew it until like 4 days ago lol

[dull terrace]

i've only ever needed to use for else once in like 15k lines of code

[silk fulcrum]

I never knew it until now

[slate swan]

we all knew that sarth🙄🤚

same, for the for loop

shhhhhhh

🙂

okimii in chat 😳

[silk fulcrum]

gahh, PEP8

[slate swan]

what about it

[slate swan]

PyCharm moment

[slate swan]

😳

[silk fulcrum]

PEP8 moment

[slate swan]

i only follow pep9001😳

[vale wing]

Um, actually, I don't wanna maintain another bot 🤓

[vale wing]

That's cool thing

Especially inverted indents

[slate swan]

yup

[silk fulcrum]

Um, actually, my friend was annoying me in voice channel exactly like your bot except instead of Um, actually,, he was using Uh, but,

[vale wing]

Um, actually, "um, actually" is better than "uh, but"

[silk fulcrum]

Um, actually, I'm about that my bot was acting EXACTLY like your bot

[vale wing]

Ok

[silk fulcrum]

well maybe he just wanted to be a nerd 🤓

[crystal glen]

is there a way to send commands thru the console?

[vale wing]

Why the hell does this occur even though I have dm messages intent disabled

[vale wing]

I would recommend using raw requests to discord API cause sending commands from console has nothing to do with async lib and is gonna block a websocket

[crystal glen]

what is raw requests?

I just wanna use the console to use commands

[vale wing]

Like commands your bot already has or what

[crystal glen]

yes

the commands my bot have

[vale wing]

How are you going to parse context to there

[crystal glen]

idk thats why im asking

can I make me and my bot's DMs a console?

[vale wing]

That's for sure

[crystal glen]

How?

[vale wing]

Just make some DM commands or listen to on_message for messages in your DMs idk how you want to implement it

[crystal glen]

Alright I will try

[dull terrace]

[silk fulcrum]

did u read the error?

[dull terrace]

intentional #discord-bots message

[silk fulcrum]

ookay

im stupid

[crystal glen]

@client.command()
async def dm(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, message):
    if isinstance(discord.channel.DMChannel):
        await member.send(message)
        await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} I have sent a message to {member.mention}")

discord.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50003): Cannot execute action on a DM channel

I want to use commands in DMs

[silk fulcrum]

• what is if isinstance(discord.channel.DMChannel), that is not even a thing, look at docs
• The member u are trying to dm has closed DMs or blocked the bot

[crystal glen]

I just stole the code from google

[slate swan]

well that's a thing but that's not how you use instance

*isinstance

[crystal glen]

and no the member hasn't blocked the bot

[crystal glen]

Just tell me how to use commands in DMs

[silk fulcrum]

there is no discord.channel how didn't it give an error though

[crystal glen]

idk

[slate swan]

discord is the package
channels.py is the file
DMChannel is a class in that file

[silk fulcrum]

but you use discord.channel

[slate swan]

I.e. discord.channel.DMChannel

[silk fulcrum]

that is not correct even like that

it would be channels.DMChannel then

[crystal glen]

What do I do now?

[slate swan]

!d discord.channel.DMChannel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.channel.DMChannel

class discord.DMChannel```
Represents a Discord direct message channel.

x == y Checks if two channels are equal.

x != y Checks if two channels are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the channel’s hash.

str(x) Returns a string representation of the channel

[silk fulcrum]

WOAHT?

[slate swan]

so ig its channel, not channels

[silk fulcrum]

ohmygosh im so dumb

[crystal glen]

WHAT DO I DO

[slate swan]

rewrite the code yourself

[crystal glen]

I can't...

[slate swan]

instead of googling it

[crystal glen]

just tell me what to do..

[silk fulcrum]

he just did

[crystal glen]

discord.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50003): Cannot execute action on a DM channel wtf is this error?

[silk fulcrum]

access denied

[crystal glen]

WHAT DO I DO THEN

[silk fulcrum]

pray that the member you are trying to send message to will unblock the bot if he blocked it or open his DM's if they're closed

[tough lance]

DMs closed?

Like not allowing DMs from server members

[silk fulcrum]

Bruh, I want to use a buttons paginator, I was thinking for design and remembered RoboDanny's one, now I can't imagine any other way of this paginator

[winter cairn]

So you know how with webhooks you can send messages with any name or profile picture? Is it possible to recreate that functionality without manually creating and calling a webhook?

[silk fulcrum]

well, that is the only way except of ephemeral messages, like interaction.response.send_message(..., ephemeral=True), then bot will send a message that only one user can see which can be sent only by webhooks, so you don't have to recreate it's profile in webhook

but if you want a profile that is not similar to your bot's, then webhook is pretty much the only way

ohh it's already 0 AM

[winter cairn]

Alr bet thx

[silk fulcrum]

@slate swan, gn

[winter cairn]

And how could I create a webhook in code?

[silk fulcrum]

!d discord.Webhook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Webhook

class discord.Webhook```
Represents an asynchronous Discord webhook.

Webhooks are a form to send messages to channels in Discord without a bot user or authentication.

There are two main ways to use Webhooks. The first is through the ones received by the library such as [`Guild.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.webhooks "discord.Guild.webhooks"), [`TextChannel.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel.webhooks "discord.TextChannel.webhooks") and [`VoiceChannel.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel.webhooks "discord.VoiceChannel.webhooks"). The ones received by the library will automatically be bound using the library’s internal HTTP session.

The second form involves creating a webhook object manually using the [`from_url()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Webhook.from_url "discord.Webhook.from_url") or [`partial()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Webhook.partial "discord.Webhook.partial") classmethods.

For example, creating a webhook from a URL and using [aiohttp](https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/index.html "(in aiohttp v3.8)"):

[winter cairn]

Oh gn sweet dreams

[silk fulcrum]

there is even an example below

[slate swan]

night night, dont let your cat bite👋

get it cuz dont let the bed bugs bite

[winter cairn]

Pov commands using prefixes and reaction buttons rehehehhe

[silk fulcrum]

😳

[slate swan]

he wont, hes with me

[winter cairn]

Don’t let the dogs bite in the night without the light

[silk fulcrum]

nice

[silk fulcrum]

😳 😳 😳

[winter cairn]

Ur in Russia?

[slate swan]

hes with me

😉

[silk fulcrum]

goes checking where's my cat

[slate swan]

🏃‍♂️

[silk fulcrum]

naah he's in the kitchen

looking in the window

maybe he's missing you lol

[slate swan]

😔

[silk fulcrum]

yes

ohhh my gosh, I just figured out that tomorrow, or today I have to spend like 2-3 hours in the morning, and then my WHOLE day is free, hehehe im gonna go crazy (switch between accounts)

bye guys, solve problems (not with my cat)

[calm ridge]

so im starting off with this new code

and im trying to figure this out

import discord
import os

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.attachement:
        await message.channel.send(content=message.attachments[0].url)
        return
      
        await message.channel.send(content)

client.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))

i want it to grab the image and also print out the same image

is that possible

[slate swan]

print the image??

[calm ridge]

like for the bot to reprint the same image the user did

[slate swan]

Why not use f strings on line 8? they're faster

[calm ridge]

i can add that

but im not sure how to do the rest

[slate swan]

Just print the url?

[calm ridge]

do i need to store the url into a var

[sick birch]

Because they're following Lucas's YT tutorial

[slate swan]

Who?

[sick birch]

This guy on YT that makes pretty bad tutorials, as you can see

[slate swan]

You could

[slate swan]

are they old videos?

d.py==1.7.0 ?

[sick birch]

Yes, but even so they don't use things like f strings

[calm ridge]

isnt that already stored in content

[slate swan]

Try it

[sick birch]

@calm ridge call .to_file() on the discord.Attachment instance, and pass it into the file= kwarg into ctx.send()

Don't have to mess with URLs or anything

[slate swan]

does someone know how can i get the account length of someone and display his days since his creation?

[calm ridge]

okok

[slate swan]

account length?

E.g if i created my account yesterday, the bot to display 1 day

[calm ridge]

the only thing is i need it as a url

to display elsewhere

[slate swan]

Don't use to file then

[calm ridge]

yea

[sick birch]

Thought you wanted to send it on discord?

[slate swan]

He wants to print the image too, I assume he means the url

[calm ridge]

yes

[slate swan]

I don't think you can print actual images in console

[calm ridge]

that is correct

[calm ridge]

no

[slate swan]

Wait so what's your issue?

[calm ridge]

^ this code doesnt print out the same image the user already put in the channel

[slate swan]

!d discord.User.created_at

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.created\_at

property created_at```
Returns the user’s creation time in UTC.

This is when the user’s Discord account was created.

[slate swan]

@slate swan

[calm ridge]

and the image for some reason is not stored in content?

[slate swan]

because you aren't printing it?

[calm ridge]

its printing in line 16 tho

or do i use ctx.send

[slate swan]

print content

[slate swan]

I knew that but can i make display only the days?

[slate swan]

What did it print for you?

[sick birch]

You can try out the new discord timestamps

[slate swan]

they do it??

damn I'm behind

me too

@calm ridge just print message.attachments[0].url and see if it matches the image your bot sends

[calm ridge]

isnt that this line ```
await message.channel.send(content)

[slate swan]

remove that line

you are already passing the argument content in your previous message

!d discord.TextChannel.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[dull terrace]

i made my database cursor global like an idiot and didn't think about the consequences

[slate swan]

Is there a way to make a slash command global cause i have my bot in 3 guilds?

[sick birch]

Yes, just sync without providing any guild IDs, but global commands can take up to an hour to propagate

[slate swan]

async def setup(bot:commands.Bot) -> None:
    await bot.add_cog(
        test(bot),
        guilds= [discord.Object(id=...)]
    )``` so from this which is from cog, i just remove the `guilds = [discord.Object...]` right?

[sick birch]

Does add_cog sync that cog automatically?

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.add_cog

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.add\_cog

await add_cog(cog, /, *, override=False, guild=..., guilds=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Adds a “cog” to the bot.

A cog is a class that has its own event listeners and commands.

If the cog is a [`app_commands.Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Group "discord.app_commands.Group") then it is added to the bot’s [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree "discord.app_commands.CommandTree") as well.

Note

Exceptions raised inside a [`Cog`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog "discord.ext.commands.Cog")’s [`cog_load()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_load "discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_load") method will be propagated to the caller...

[slate swan]

Another question

I have command which takes from db some values. These values can be random as quantity. Now I have 20 values. However are these values are, I add them to embed but as you understand, this embed is too big. So , is there a way to make every page to has 10 values, if they exist?

I know that can be done with discord-ext-menus but i dont really understand these menus

[regal jacinth]

Did anyone work with sellix api before. Like automize purchases and connect them to discord bot?

[crystal glen]

Give me an idea for one of my bot's commands.

Is it possible to record audio with discord.py?

if yes, give me an example

[cloud dawn]

Yes you can record audio.

But we won't help with that here.

[crystal glen]

why not?

Don't tell me it's rule 5

[cloud dawn]

Because you can record people without their consent.

[crystal glen]

🤦‍♂️

[cloud dawn]

Still don't think discord.py supports audio recording you'd need to make something custom.

[crystal glen]

Just leave it alone.

[cloud dawn]

You are allowed to record voice with the bot. I have asked the mods.

[crystal glen]

Just... Leave it alone I removed it in my wish-list...

[vale cape]

Any idea why my discord bot wouldn’t be updating/syncing it’s commands with my guild?

async def on_ready(self):
    await tree.sync(guild = discord.Object(id = guild_id))
    log(f'Logged in as Name: {client.user.name} - ID:{client.user.id}', folder = "logs")

log is a custom function that simply prints to console and saves the log to a folder

After I add a command and restart the bot, it won’t show as a slash command in the Discord server. Also when I require new parameters/remove parameters it doesn’t update, but running the command will show the new response from the bot.

[crystal glen]

How do I add break lines between the datas?

[vale cape]

On your dump add , indent = 6

indent not indend

[crystal glen]

thanks

[quartz nacelle]

ImportError: cannot import name 'commands' from 'discord.ext' (unknown location) How do I fix this import error?

[crystal glen]

When I spam to level up, And then I level up while I'm spamming, The bot sends the level up 2 times, What's the best fix for this?

[quartz nacelle]

My code used to work before

[crystal glen]

You probably need to reinstall discord.py

[quartz nacelle]

ok

[vale cape]

make sure you’re running the start from the same directory as the discord folder

[crystal glen]

When I spam to level up, And then I level up while I'm spamming, The bot sends the level up 2 times, What's the best fix for this?

[vale cape]

Debugging your code

[quartz nacelle]

as my bot folder?

[crystal glen]

How do I debug this

[vale cape]

Did you pip install for discord.py or did you download the foler

[vale cape]

You need to debug your code, I’m not able to debug it for you here.

[quartz nacelle]

pip install discord

thats what i did

[vale cape]

Try reinstalling it

[quartz nacelle]

i did

I did pip uninstall discord and then pip install discord

[vale cape]

The directory you’re running the script from, is there a file/folder named discord

[quartz nacelle]

no

foldername is meteorbot and filename is main.py

[vale cape]

What about in the same folder as your bot?

[quartz nacelle]

nothing is named discord in the files or folders

of my bot

[vale cape]

I’m still seeking help on this

[fading marlin]

rate limited perhaps? you shouldn't be syncing in on_ready either way

[vale cape]

The issue had to do with me using run instead of start

I just figured it out and came back to say solved

[slate swan]

hey

i cant run my discord bot and i got errors

for my GUILDS

const Discord = require(Discord.js);

const { token } = require('./config.json');

console.log(token);

const prefix = !;

const client = new Discord.Client({
allowedMentions: {
parse: [users, roles],
repliedUser: true,

},
intents: [
    "GUILDS",
    "GUILD_MESSAGES",
    "GUILD_PRESENCES",
    "GUILD_MEMBERS",
    "GUILD_MESSAGE_REACTIONS",
    
  ]

});

client.on("ready", () => {
console.log("NitroNet Services botten är nu uppe!")

})

client.login("")

is these guilds right? Discords documentaion doesnt explain so good

[shrewd apex]

this is a python server 💀

[slate swan]

omg im so stupid

I completely forgot about it lmaooo

[quaint epoch]

javascript moment

[slate swan]

i cant find js official dc server

does anyone it?

[wicked atlas]

https://discord.com/invite/djs

[fading marlin]

you're reassigning the value of ids

name it something else?

your variables...

show updated code

you're not changing your json info when you first load it

also ^

what you're basically doing is:
loading your json file
setting id as the guild id
dumping the guild id to your json

you're not editing the object (assuming it's a dictionary) that gets returned once you load your json file. Put simply, you're not "adding" the guild ID to your "database which isn't a databse"

no, I won't spoon feed you. If you don't understand json, perhaps read the documentation for it/some articles

oh yeah.

😭😭

lol

[silk fulcrum]

typo 💀

[cold tide]

Simple misstakes lol

[slate swan]

@cold tide your PfP has got to racist 💀

[karmic horizon]

Ive got this (tokens on the bottem) and when running the command $version, its not doing anything

Ideas?

[silk fulcrum]

Indents

[karmic horizon]

can you tell me more, im new to python

[silk fulcrum]

your if message.content.startswith is inside previous if

[karmic horizon]

Ty

[cold tide]

Someone tell me how you can make a event that sends "error this command doesnt exsist"

Would be appreciated.

Not sure how to.

[silk fulcrum]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.on\_error

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

The default error handler provided by the client.

By default this logs to the library logger however it could be overridden to have a different implementation. Check [`on_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_error "discord.on_error") for more details.

Changed in version 2.0: `event_method` parameter is now positional-only and instead of writing to `sys.stderr` it logs instead.

[cold tide]

can you show me a example??

[silk fulcrum]

well, there is no example for this in docs

[cold tide]

So just that??

Idk how to.

Thats why im asking for a example.

[silk fulcrum]

well you just do usual event

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    ``` and then check if error is CommandNotFound and send that it is not found
```py
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
        await ctx.send(f"Command {ctx.command} not found")```

but im not sure about ctx arg in on_error

[slate swan]

no, that wont; work

on_error just takes an event and the args

[silk fulcrum]

on_command_error?

[slate swan]

should use on_command_error instead, ye

[silk fulcrum]

yeah of course...

[slate swan]

discord added some stupid vc feature

[cold tide]

So what should it be like?

[silk fulcrum]

text in voice?

[silk fulcrum]

I already sent

[silk fulcrum]

here

[slate swan]

nah thats cool, they added some emoji feature that spams the vc window with that emoji

[silk fulcrum]

lmao wth

@Danny go ahead code the dpy so bots will spam those emojis

[slate swan]

[silk fulcrum]

who did it ping

some random danny

[cold tide]

Whats the hex color for red?

[slate swan]

some random, danny doesnt join public servers usually

[cold tide]

anyone know?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Colour.red

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Colour.red

classmethod red()```
A factory method that returns a [`Colour`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Colour "discord.Colour") with a value of `0xe74c3c`.

[cold tide]

the id.

[slate swan]

0xe74c3c

[cold tide]

sorry.

[vale wing]

E74C3C isn't natural red 😩

FF0000 better

[cold tide]

How to send a message if command is used in the wrong channel??

[silk fulcrum]

do you have a decorator?

[cold tide]

What does that mean.

😭

[silk fulcrum]

@decorator

e.g @bot.command()

[robust fulcrum]

Hmmm

You should learn about decorators first?

[silk fulcrum]

Well if you don't have a decorator for a specific channel, then you can just add if ctx.channel.id != channel_id: and send that it's wrong channel

in the beggining of command

[vale wing]

The principle of decorators might be complicated for beginners so you can just remember that you need to decorate certain functions with certain decorator

Shortly decorator turns the function into something that decorator function returns

[slate swan]

Eyo can someone help me because my bot is uncontrollably online

[silk fulcrum]

uncontrollably online?

[slate swan]

Yes

[silk fulcrum]

what does that mean

[slate swan]

I cant make it offline

[silk fulcrum]

waht?

[slate swan]

My bot is not getting offline

it will, have patience

[silk fulcrum]

Can't you just go to terminal and turn it off?

[slate swan]

No its not in terminal

on discord yes, it will go offline, have patience

[silk fulcrum]

ohkay

[slate swan]

Ohh its offline now

😳

[silk fulcrum]

lemao cooldown

delay*

[slate swan]

My bot is not changing appearance too

[silk fulcrum]

This is app

And you need bot

[slate swan]

Yes

[slate swan]

Ohh

Im such is dum person

[grizzled otter]

Hello, Do you have any sample about a discord boot that makes speadchtotext from audio channel?

[silk fulcrum]

i had absolutely same bruh like yesterday

[slate swan]

discord does that intentionally for easier connection next time you try to make connection, like if you testing a bot and turning it on and off in every while, so discord decides to not disconnect you as soon as you turn the bot off to save its resources if you re-connect within some time

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#disconnections

[slate swan]

if you want it to go offline instantly you can use bot.close()

[west veldt]

um i was trying to make a purge command but it is kindaf giving me a error im coding in replit.com ```py
@bot.command()
@has_permissions(administrator=True, manage_messages=True)
async def purge(ctx, amount=5):
await ctx. channel. purge(limit=amount + 1)
await ctx.send(((embed=discord.Embed(description=f":tick: successfully deleted {amount} messages in {ctx.channel}", color=0x2E08CB))

please help me get thru this

[silk fulcrum]

what are these brackets?

for what?

you need to remove them, leave only 1, cus they're not even closed

[west veldt]

then it says this

File "main.py", line 33
keep_alive()
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[slate swan]

!e

print(((((((((((("uwu"))))))))))))

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

uwu

[slate swan]

[west veldt]

im using that flask thing to make bot alive

[silk fulcrum]

there is no embed arg in print

[silk fulcrum]

idk, i dont use repl.it cus it's bad

[slate swan]

when did I say there is?

[west veldt]

even i use vs code but if i doit with replit and use that flask import and then i somehoe get bot pinged atleast once in a while which im doing with a different website bot is alive 24/7

[silk fulcrum]

I mean in the example you showed brackets doesn't matter but in his case they do because he uses embed arg

[slate swan]

!e

print(((((__import__("random").randint(1, 10))))))

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

2

[slate swan]

they still don't

yeah the whole part is considered to be the content arg

[silk fulcrum]

^^^^

[tough lance]

Hi

[silk fulcrum]

hi

[glad cradle]

why did you use so many brackets?

[silk fulcrum]

to show me that they do not matter

[glad cradle]

oh

ok

[slate swan]

what seems like a good abstraction for Intent builder py intents = Intents( Intents.X | Intents.Y | Intents.Z , ...) or ```py
intents = Intents()
intents.add_intent(Intents.X)

the first one ofc, the second one looks too wordy

[silk fulcrum]

first

[slate swan]

yeah so ill go with that :p

[slate swan]

go with happiness instead 😔

ah well, not my thing

understandable, still working on dawn?

[slate swan]

i was just done with the slash commands part and decided to take a break

slash commands are done with extensions ( cog like stuff ) and the bot base

i'll make the user and message commands when im bored

mhm cool

good luck

the autocomplete looks so uwu

[silk fulcrum]

will it be hard or omega hard to switch to hybrid commands from usual commands?

[paper sluice]

no?

[slate swan]

nop

[paper sluice]

the format is pretty much same

[silk fulcrum]

I hope so

[slate swan]

I think I have them in my slash commands gist, i forgot

oh yeah I do

https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32#hybrid-commands

[slate swan]

but the fact that literally every library in existence does the same

[silk fulcrum]

ephemeral send

[slate swan]

meh the list comps 😔

@Command.autocomplete("argument name")
async def name_it_anything(**some_args) -> list/Choice:
  ...``` is basically what each library does

but i wont be shocked if dpy came up with some weird shit

**args 😔

[silk fulcrum]

wait, @slate swan so even if I do usual it can send ephemeral message?

[slate swan]

do usual?

[silk fulcrum]

I mean not slash

[slate swan]

please define usual

[slate swan]

no

it wont

[slate swan]

im high so ignore that

[silk fulcrum]

then how will this work

[slate swan]

ctx.defer and ephemeral=True only run when trigger is from a slash command

i think it will just not send the ephemeral response

without any error

[robust fulcrum]

Guys what's this error?

[slate swan]

time to dig in the source code

[slate swan]

wrong token

[silk fulcrum]

okay, then I'll try em and see

[robust fulcrum]

Hmm but token is correct

[silk fulcrum]

no

[slate swan]

?

when command is invoked as slash command -> ephemeral = True works
when command is invoked as message command -> ephemeral = True is ignored

[silk fulcrum]

that all looks sus but ok

[slate swan]

🚶‍♂️ thats what i said

[slate swan]

do you use some .env or something

[slate swan]

it's dpy

i mean lightbulb does the same

[slate swan]

still but still

[west veldt]

um can anyone help me a bit i was trying to make a kick command but it not working its not even giving an error ```py
@bot.command(pass_context = True)
@has_permissions(administrator=True, ban_members=True)
async def kick(ctx, userName: discord.member):
await userName.kick()

@kick.error
async def kick_error(error, ctx):
if isinstance(error, MissingPermissions):
await ctx.send(f"Sorry you don't have permission to do that")```

[silk fulcrum]

discord.Member

[slate swan]

The capitals always get you 😥

😔

[silk fulcrum]

me?

[slate swan]

Definitely

it's a convention so no

[west veldt]

ummm uhhh im kindaf new to discord.py so... 😅

[silk fulcrum]

ok

[slate swan]

It's all good

[slate swan]

What?

[short relic]

import discord 
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ui import Button

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="=")
@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    button = Button(label = "Hi", style = discord.ButtonStyle.success)
    view = View()
    view.add_item(button)
    await ctx.send("Hi", view = view)

can someone help me the command doenst work for me

and also in the error its the View() not defined

[silk fulcrum]

because it's not defined

you have no class View

and no class View imported

from discord.ui import Button, View ?

[short relic]

oh ok

import discord 
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ui import Button, View

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="=")
@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    button = Button(label = "Hi", style = discord.ButtonStyle.success)
    view = View()
    view.add_item(button)
    await ctx.send("Hi", view = view)

added import view but when i use the command =hello nothing responded

[silk fulcrum]

no errors?

[short relic]

yea

the command just doesnt wrok

[west veldt]

it still doesnt work ;-;

[silk fulcrum]

the member doesn't kick?

[west veldt]

nahh

[paper sluice]

did you bot.run?

[short relic]

yea i did

but the discord doesnt allow me to send it here

the bot is online tho

[cold tide]

What are cogs?

[west veldt]

damnn it workedd

[cold tide]

what is it.

[short relic]

lol

but not for me i used bot.run()

but it doenst work even tho

[silk fulcrum]

@cold tide https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#cog

[paper sluice]

its weird that it doesn't show any error, but you need to have intents in your code and portal
the important one here is Intents.message_content

[short relic]

ohh

so how do i fix like where do i add it

[paper sluice]

like:

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)

[slate swan]

I mean, class names as pascal case is just a convention of writing code in any language

I don't know what pascal case is

[paper sluice]

PascalCase

[slate swan]

ThisIsPascalCaseUwu

Oh

[silk fulcrum]

ThenWhatIsUpperCamelCaseFor?

[slate swan]

I'm not too smart

My fault

[slate swan]

that's that's literally not a thing, it's the same as pascal case

[slate swan]

I can relate

[slate swan]

No you can't, you know so much python shit 🤧

[slate swan]

I swear I dont give me a problem and that's where I get stuck

[silk fulcrum]

here you go: "problem", now it's yourth

[slate swan]

Convert a given list to a hashmap

[west veldt]

@bot.command(pass_context = True)
@has_permissions(administrator=True, ban_members=True)
async def kick(ctx, userName: discord.Member):
  await userName.kick() 
  await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(description =f"**:tick: {member.display_name} has been kicked **", color=0x2E08CB))``` um this my code it was supposed to send an embed after the member is kicked but it isnt somehow

[slate swan]

Why do people send embeds like that

[silk fulcrum]

why not

[slate swan]

I like making an embed variable instead

[silk fulcrum]

maybe you dont have those permissions

[west veldt]

it kicks the member

[silk fulcrum]

and name it e

[slate swan]

Master32 real

[short relic]

i sent the script to my friend

[west veldt]

just doesnt send embed after kicking

[short relic]

and it worked for him but not for me

[silk fulcrum]

maybe embed requires title

but it doesnt iirc

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=None, color=None, title=None, type='rich', url=None, description=None, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

New in version 2.0...

[silk fulcrum]

oh yes

[west veldt]

member is not defined

[silk fulcrum]

it's userName, not member

[west veldt]

o

[slate swan]

userName.display_name

[slate swan]

I don't think it does not iirc

@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    await ctx.send("hi")

when i use ~hello nothing happened and no error output whats the problem (the bot is online)

[rich haven]

try @client.command()

[silk fulcrum]

why

[silk fulcrum]

he has bot, it just wont work

[rich haven]

the bot command line must be full blue

[silk fulcrum]

what?

[short relic]

in vsc its full blue

[silk fulcrum]

this is discord, not vsc

[rich haven]

Oh my bad

sorry

[slate swan]

Do you have Message content enabled on the dev app ?

[vocal snow]

that looks like dpy 1.7.3 so it shouldnt matter

[vocal snow]

so you have an on_message event?

[slate swan]

Hmm

[short relic]

no i dont

[short relic]

yes

[vocal snow]

and are you on dpy 1.7.3 or 2.0?

[slate swan]

pip --version discord.py

Or is that wrong I can't even remember rn

[silk fulcrum]

pip show 🆗

[slate swan]

That

My fault it's 3 am

[silk fulcrum]

sleep

[short relic]

how do i check

[silk fulcrum]

pip show discord

in terminal

[vocal snow]

pip show discord.py

[short relic]

Version: 2.0.0a4464+g87c9c95b

[silk fulcrum]

2.0 hehe

[slate swan]

run pip show discord.py

[silk fulcrum]

intents

[vocal snow]

you need to enable them in your code

[short relic]

how do i do that

[slate swan]

Zeffo was wrong wtf

[vocal snow]

and the dev portal but I think you've done that

[vocal snow]

I stg intents is a mandatory kwarg in 2.0!!!

[short relic]

and also

[silk fulcrum]

he just didnt use 2.0 features that's why zeffo thought of 1.7.3

[short relic]

the weird thing is it works for my friend

[silk fulcrum]

and that

[short relic]

but not for me

[slate swan]

intents = discord.Intents.all()

[silk fulcrum]

because he has 1.7.3

[vocal snow]

myabe your friend is on dpy 1.7.3

[slate swan]

!d discord.Intents.all

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.all

classmethod all()```
A factory method that creates a [`Intents`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents "discord.Intents") with everything enabled.

[short relic]

how do i install the 1.7.3

😩

[silk fulcrum]

why not 2.0

[slate swan]

Why do you want to downgrade

[short relic]

because its pretty complicated

[vocal snow]

just enable intents and it'll work

[short relic]

and im just a newbie

import discord 
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ui import Button, View
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="=", intents = intents)
@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    button = Button(label = "Hi", style = discord.ButtonStyle.success)
    view = View()
    view.add_item(button)
    await ctx.send("Hi", view = view)

heres the code i sent in to my friend after fixing and it worked for him but not for me

[slate swan]

Run pip uninstall discord.py
Then python -m pip install discord.py==1.7.3

Or listen to Zeffo & Master

[short relic]

holy shit

it worked, the capital letters got me 😓

[silk fulcrum]

bruh

[slate swan]

Okay

!d discord.Intents.default

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.default

classmethod default()```

[slate swan]

You need to set the message content intent

Defualt does not include it

[silk fulcrum]

that's what he did

[slate swan]

Okay I'm actually blind

My fault do not listen to me

[silk fulcrum]

go sleep it's 3 am are u kidding

[slate swan]

It's too late for this

I think I'm losing brain signals staying awake

Hey @pearl shoal! I noticed you posted a seemingly valid Discord API token in your message and have removed your message. This means that your token has been compromised. Please change your token immediately at: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me

you didnt call client.command

i want to make it so that it will response base on what button is clicked. i think i have to use 'if' if yes how do i make it if no whats the way to do it

[vocal snow]

you could subclass Button and make the response a parameter

[silk fulcrum]

or subclass a view

[short relic]

how do i subclass

[paper sluice]

you only have one button right now, so they can only click one of them

if you want to have another button, you just make an instance of Button and add a callback for that button

[vocal snow]

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/classes.html#inheritance

[short relic]

yea but can i make another gui with buttons will pop up after a button is clicked

[paper sluice]

yea, you just make a new view or add buttons to the existing view and send it

[short relic]

ok thanks ill try

@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    button = Button(label = "son", style = discord.ButtonStyle.success)

    button.callback = button_callback
    view = View()
    view.add_item(button)
    await ctx.send(view = view)

can i make it so that it will send multiple buttons not only one

[scarlet aurora]

how can I read my sqlite db file?

[silk fulcrum]

then add another button?

[scarlet aurora]

can u help me?

here is explanation in comment

[scarlet aurora]

I already know that, but I want something I can use to just read all contents of the file

without the use of code

[silk fulcrum]

programm?

[dusky pine]

you can just use the sqlite3 CLI

if you have it installed, that is

[silk fulcrum]

yeah

[scarlet aurora]

sqlite3 CLI

[dusky pine]

sqlite3 your_file.db

oh ok i understand

maybe ill subclass button and view because i want to make it so that when a button is clicked another gui with buttons will pop up

[scarlet aurora]

which one @dusky pine

[dusky pine]

tools

the sqlite-tools one

[mild zephyr]

i use SQliteStudio

to manage databases in sqlute3

[silk fulcrum]

I use MySQL Workbench

can you send an ephemeral message in a different channel from the place it was interacted?

whilst keeping ephemeral=True

How do i make it so it updates the time continuously?

[slate swan]

define the number var outside the event as it gets set to 1 every trigger
on a side note, you can access the username using message.author.name

use a botvar to set the number var 'cause scope issues

[pulsar solstice]

ah ok

[pulsar solstice]

what do u mean by botvar?

[slate swan]

how to make an uptime command.
If the bot is online rn,
And I run the command after 1h 12 minutes 32 seconds it should say
I’ve been up for 1h 12minutes 32 seconds

[slate swan]

update time?

[slate swan]

ye i want it to update time every min

[slate swan]

do ?tag uptime in the dpy server, there's an example command

[cold tide]

When i use {ctx.command} it sends None

[slate swan]

!botvar

[unkempt canyon]

Python allows you to set custom attributes to most objects, like your bot! By storing things as attributes of the bot object, you can access them anywhere you access your bot. In the discord.py library, these custom attributes are commonly known as "bot variables" and can be a lifesaver if your bot is divided into many different files. An example on how to use custom attributes on your bot is shown below:

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
# Set an attribute on our bot
bot.test = "I am accessible everywhere!"

@bot.command()
async def get(ctx: commands.Context):
    """A command to get the current value of `test`."""
    # Send what the test attribute is currently set to
    await ctx.send(ctx.bot.test)

@bot.command()
async def setval(ctx: commands.Context, *, new_text: str):
    """A command to set a new value of `test`."""
    # Here we change the attribute to what was specified in new_text
    bot.test = new_text

This all applies to cogs as well! You can set attributes to self as you wish.

Be sure not to overwrite attributes discord.py uses, like cogs or users. Name your attributes carefully!

[cold tide]

Someone tell me how to fix

[slate swan]

nice

[cold tide]

How to make it so it sends the cmd?

I am getting this error:

[slate swan]

What even ctx.command does💀

[slate swan]

You referred a variable before assigning it

[cold tide]

pretty sure it should send the command that was executed

but its just sending the word None

[pulsar solstice]

nah

i didn't

[slate swan]

Something like this

x + 1
x = 0 ```

[slate swan]

^

[cold tide]

How do i make it send the command that was used?

[slate swan]

returns a Command object that the context is of

[slate swan]

oh, k

[cold tide]

it doesnt work though

[slate swan]

Ty for this btw

[cold tide]

It just sends "None"

@slate swan

[slate swan]

Just use ctx.message.content

It will send the content the user sent

[pulsar solstice]

@slate swan

[cold tide]

Message has no attribute apparently

[slate swan]

Ignoring me 😔

[cold tide]

Nvm

[pulsar solstice]

aaa ... I didn't do that

[slate swan]

Great pfp btw

[pulsar solstice]

can u point out my error in my code itself?

[slate swan]

See it
I defined the variable after using it

[cold tide]

Thankyou 🙃

[slate swan]

anyone?

[slate swan]

Send your code

Till then lemme get my laptop

ping?

[pulsar solstice]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

So you want to get what the user sent when the messed up?

[pulsar solstice]

oups it's the old code sorry

import discord
from discord.ext import commands


bot = discord.Client()

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("I am Ready")

number=1

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):

        elif message.content != number:
            await message.channel.send(f"{username} messed up at {number}")
            number=1 





bot.run(token)

check this code

I defined number

then if the message is equal to the number

[slate swan]

if message.content == number:

[pulsar solstice]

yes?

[slate swan]

And you are defining number after it

[pulsar solstice]

no I updating number after it

[silk fulcrum]

you are comparing str (message.content) and int (number)

[pulsar solstice]

check the line after print("I am Ready")

[pulsar solstice]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[silk fulcrum]

you need to do int(message.content) or str(number)

[pulsar solstice]

lit me try correct it

[silk fulcrum]

to compare them

[pulsar solstice]

let*

[silk fulcrum]

and also there are a lot of weird thing in your code

for example this line, you don't even use that id

also why do you do if str(message.channel) in channels, why not just if message.channel.name == 'counting'

[pulsar solstice]

u have insert the server id in it

lol

[silk fulcrum]

what?

[slate swan]

How to fix?

[slate swan]

check the spellings

hey

i need some help how do i check a users status every 3 mins?

in a event btw ^

[robust fulcrum]

Guys i have db connection in my setup hook for my bot . I want to use that connection in my cogs. How can I use that?

[slate swan]

How to use asyncio.TimeoutError():?

Idrk if it requires await

[paper sluice]

wdym by use, what are you trying to do with it?

[slate swan]

yo

[robust fulcrum]

Me?

[slate swan]

can u help me?

[vocal snow]

you could set it as an attribute of the bot instance and then use that in the cogs

assuming your cogs have access to the bot instance

[robust fulcrum]

Hmmm like it's
self.bot
And i can do self.bot.connrction?

[slate swan]

i need some help how do i check users in a server status every 3 mins?

[vocal snow]

right

[slate swan]

asyncio.TimeoutError():
    await ctx.send(“You failed to respond with the key”)

[robust fulcrum]

Thanks for help

[paper sluice]

make a task and do your thing there

[vocal snow]

that's not valid syntax

[paper sluice]

you want to catch that error in a try-except?

[slate swan]

so cbot.event

[paper sluice]

!d discord.ext.task
