discord-bots

[sick birch]

No, in the code

!d discord.Intents.presences

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.presences

Whether guild presence related events are enabled.

This corresponds to the following events:

• on_presence_update()

This also corresponds to the following attributes and classes in terms of cache...

[sick birch]

You can just try discord.Intents.all() for testing purposes

[slate swan]

ok

so the activity worked

but it wasnt activity lol it was my

the status still says offline

Started this at 6pm yesterday, it's now 8am.
My code is now fully adapted for cogs and completely error free.
Thank you so much @sick birch @primal token.

I'm going to bed lol

[sick birch]

Great! Have a great night

[primal token]

Youre welcome, Good night

[slate swan]

i fixed it

dw its because i had mobile_status instead of raw_status

is it possible to change .created_at and .joined_at to a timespam

like instead of

created 2 years ago

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

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

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

[glad cradle]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

like this? <t:1595028120:R>

[glad cradle]

the style parameter should be 'R'

[slate swan]

how I've made that

not really sure how to put it how you want it tho

that's just the formatting

[glad cradle]

just use this function

[hidden haven]

How can I send a message to any user who reacts to my bot's message? I know how to check for the user being the same person that initiated the bot user == message.author, but how do i define the user as any person on the server?

[slate swan]

are you looking to dm them or ping them in the same channel as the reaction?

[hidden haven]

DM

[slate swan]

@client.event
async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user):
    ChannelID = id
    if reaction.message != ChannelID:
        return
    if user.reaction.emoji == ":thumbsup:":
        await user.send('message')```

try that, I'm not well versed with discord.py, but I imagine that'd work based on how I've used reactions before

as an event sorry, my bad

[sick birch]

Do you want this to happen after a command or just independantly? I'm guessing in a command as that's the more common use case, like:

1. you invoke a command
2. bot sends a message asking you to react
3. DMs you after you react

[hidden haven]

Yea, the latter. The user initiates a command, the bot sends an embed, and then any user can react to get more information DM'd to them

[sick birch]

In that case, you're looking for discord.Client.wait_for

!d discord.Client.wait_for here's the relevant documentation

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

wait_for(event, /, *, check=None, timeout=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.10)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.10)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.10)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[hidden haven]

How do I allow any user to react and get the information? Wouldn't user==message.author limit to just the initiator?

[sick birch]

The only checks you need to have in that case are that the command invocation guild is the same as the reaction guild

[hidden haven]

Something like this? Where would I draw the user from, though

        try:
            reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            pass
        else:
            await user.message.send('message')

[sick birch]

You don't need to check user

You have to check the message, that's about it

[hidden haven]

yes but don't i need the user information to DM them

[sick birch]

reaction, user = await client.wait_for(...)

is how you get the user

[mossy jacinth]

please someone help me 😭

[radiant junco]

await ctx.send('>>> ``'+'\n'.join(list(map(lambda id: await self.client.fetch_user(id),db["mock"])))+'``')

Trying to use await in lambda which doesn't work but is there another way to do this?
I can't use asyncio.run since i'm mapping the values so I can't include self.client in parameters

nvm

[sick birch]

Try get_user

[limber bison]

MySQL is completed wrt mongo db

Switching becomeing hard 😳

[rugged shadow]

I don't understand what you mean? 😅

[limber bison]

Oh i mean complicated

[limber bison]

Is there any function with return owner as user ? , I want i someone type !bug the bot dm me , even if i am not in guild

Members.send , but how can I get owner as members!

[rugged shadow]

oh so you're switching to mongodb?

[limber bison]

Hmmm switching to MySQL

Form mongodb

[rugged shadow]

nice

[limber bison]

But me mongo is easy

[rugged shadow]

mongo is a pain 😔

[limber bison]

Why ?

Slow ?

[sick birch]

!d discord.Guild.owner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.owner

property owner```
The member that owns the guild.

[limber bison]

Hmmm I am talking about bot owner 😅

[heavy swift]

bot.application.owner

I'm not sure how it would work for team applications, so I usually just use a check function

but if it's just you, that'd work

[drifting arrow]

Hey, with Modals, is it possible to send multiple modals? Like, after 1 is submitted, the bot sends a 2nd one? Sorta like a page system

Not everything I want on the modal fits on it 😦

[winged dock]

Can someone show me how you can make a discord command that prints what you say?

[limber bison]

ok k

how can i unhide this in vc code ?

[winged dock]

@bot.command()
async def check(ctx,  arg):
    await ctx.send(arg)

this isnt sending why??

[limber bison]

🤔

should be working i think

[winged dock]

idk why

[limber bison]

check you other stuff

[winged dock]

@bot.command()
async def check(ctx, arg):
    await ctx.send("test",arg)

doesnt send

@limber bison

[limber bison]

@bot.command()
async def check(ctx, arg:str):
await ctx.send(f"{arg}")

try this , btw your also ok , may be u mistaking somewhere else

did u import commands ?

oh u r on client

nvm

whats your client/bot instance ?

[winged dock]

wym?

[limber bison]

from discord.ext import commands

[winged dock]

It worked dw.

thankyou so much.

[limber bison]

[austere prairie]

What d.py alternatives are there with buttons/slash commands/etc. support?

[slate swan]

hikari, forks like disnake, pycord etc....
discord.py has buttons & slash commands support in the master version too

[rugged shadow]

sarth is recommending pycord

real?

[austere prairie]

discord.py has buttons & slash commands support in the master version too
Are there any guides on how?

[silk fulcrum]

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

[austere prairie]

ty

[silk fulcrum]

here examples of views (buttons, dropdowns, e.t.c): https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples/views

[slate swan]

yeah a lot https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples

[slate swan]

discord.py 2.0.0 came out on pypi 8 minutes ago

[torn sail]

Yep

[drifting arrow]

So uhh. When I do print(interaction.channel.type I get public_thread, but when I print the type, I get it as a class.. how can I just get public_thread?

print(interaction.channel.type)
        print(type(interaction.channel.type))
        if interaction.channel.type == 'public_thread':
```The if statement doesnt work is what I am trying to say.

Can someone help me please

[torn sail]

Try interaction.channel.type == discord.ChannelType.public_thread

[drifting arrow]

alright I believe that worked

now to figure out the rest lol

Can modals only be sent as a response to a slash command?

Or can I use regular commands like !newmodal?

Coz it'd be nice to have multiple modals sent in a row so I can get more than like 5 questions on my application form xD

[vale wing]

Only to interactions

They include components interactions

[drifting arrow]

Do you know how to send a 2nd modal after the first is submitted?

[torn sail]

You can’t “chain” modals so just send a button to get a new interaction

[austere vale]

class LevelCog(commands.Cog, name='Leveling'):
  '''rank, add, subtract'''
  def __init__(self, bot):
    self.bot = bot
  #create leveling database
  @commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_ready(self):
    setattr(self,'db',await aiosqlite.connect('level.db'))
    await asyncio.sleep(3)
    async with self.db.cursor() as cursor:
      await cursor.execute('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS levels (guild INTEGER, user INTEGER, level INTEGER, xp INTEGER, ssc INTEGER)')

what would i put instead of self.db.cursor() to make it work inside a cog?

[shrewd apex]

add it to the bot

so u can do self.bot.db.cursor

[silk fulcrum]

everytime I click the button on my game it says "This interaction failed" (screenshot 1) and if I add defer here py await self.view.message.edit(view=self.view) await ctx.defer() this error happens (screenshot 2)

[torn sail]

show code

[silk fulcrum]

ss2

ss1

[silk fulcrum]

more?

[torn sail]

yeah

[silk fulcrum]

i just accidentally pressed enter;(

https://hastebin.com/uwirizepan.lua - callback of button

[torn sail]

1. you can only defer once because it is an interaction response
2. you need to defer the new interaction to make the "interaction failed" go away

how come ur using ctx.defer?

[silk fulcrum]

oh bruh ctx

forgot

[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.

[vale wing]

Your modal is empty

[drifting arrow]

Why is it when I create a new thread using my bot, it doesnt automatically appear under the channel? I have to speak in it to make it appear..

[silk fulcrum]

that's how threads work, you join it only when you send a message in it

[pulsar abyss]

how would I make my bot DM a user after sending a certain message?

[silk fulcrum]

!d discord.abc.User.send -- DM a user

[unkempt canyon]

Huh? No.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[silk fulcrum]

!d discord.User.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.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**.

[silk fulcrum]

abc.User doesn't have send for some reason

because there is a ClientUser 😫

@pulsar abyss

[pulsar abyss]

i wish i knew what any of this meant!

[silk fulcrum]

await my_user.send("Beautiful message"), ig this is all you need

it'll DM my_user

[pulsar abyss]

wait it got messed up

[silk fulcrum]

?

[pulsar abyss]

would something like this work? (i literally have no idea what im doing and have never coded)

async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
    
    if message.content.startswith('43725'):
        await my_user.send("Beautiful message")```

[silk fulcrum]

no it won't

my_user is not defined

my_user should be the user you want to dm

i guess it's message.author for you

[pulsar abyss]

THANK YOU

🙏 it works

[silk fulcrum]

ofc

[pulsar abyss]

man i wasted so much time googling stuff and i could have just asked here this whole time 😭

[silk fulcrum]

lmao

shit happens

[primal token]

it does lol

pretty sure abc is just the folder for abstract base classes e.g User lol

[silk fulcrum]

ye

[primal token]

so no need really to provide the folder either as the namespace has already been initiated

[limber bison]

await cur.execute(f"INSERT INTO music_style VALUES({ctx.authour.id},'heavy metal')")

Will this work ?

Or not ?

[silk fulcrum]

1 - #databases
2 - no it won't

[limber bison]

2 , why ?

How can I insert then ?

Nvm not why question

[silk fulcrum]

because your insert VALUES into music_style, but you dont give columns

[limber bison]

It only have 3 columns

[silk fulcrum]

INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2) VALUES (value_for_lumn1, value_for_column2)

that is how it works

[limber bison]

And the f string thing ? CTX.author .id ?

Will work ?

[silk fulcrum]

no, it's author, not authour

[sick junco]

can anybody help me? I'm trying to install chatterbot but it gives me an error when I run pip install -U chatterbot, here is the error.

ERROR: Could not build wheels for srsly, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based project```

[limber bison]

Lol with author will it work author ?

[primal token]

You should show an example with place holders to prevent SQL injection

[silk fulcrum]

it will ig

[silk fulcrum]

prevent?

[limber bison]

How u insert values ?

[primal token]

sqlites syntax is query, (values,)

[limber bison]

F string ?

[primal token]

That is so

[silk fulcrum]

well, noid is right, not with F strings, with using place holders

[sick junco]

?

[limber bison]

What's that , how it work ?

[silk fulcrum]

I don't think this is related to the topic of this channel

[silk fulcrum]

what db are u using?

[sick junco]

it is related to my discord bot

[silk fulcrum]

but the question itself is not

[limber bison]

Now on mongodb, switching to mySQL

[sick junco]

which channel should I got to then?

[silk fulcrum]

for mysql it's py query = "INSERT INTO something (col1, col2, col3) VALUES (%s, %s, %s)" cursor.execute(query, (value1, value2, value3))

so %s's will be replaced with value1, 2 and 3

[limber bison]

Hmm it inc. code !

Let me try f strings

[silk fulcrum]

if you do fstring, some user with name yes'; DROP TABLE users; could break your sql

[drifting arrow]

Is it possible to set a thread to delete after an hour after it has been spoken in?

[silk fulcrum]

archive?

[drifting arrow]

Sure. Whatever works. I just want it to remove itself after someone has spoken in it, but not right away, after an hour

[limber bison]

I don't think it will be in VALUES section ,

[silk fulcrum]

!d discord.Thread.auto_archive_duration ig

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Thread.auto\_archive\_duration

The duration in minutes until the thread is automatically archived due to inactivity. Usually a value of 60, 1440, 4320 and 10080.

[limber bison]

So what ever the input it will take it as value

Creating it ?

It you r creating bot host it on you pc to understand things

After complet u can host

Ohh

Sory

Is your setup function async ?

🤔

Share you code

[silk fulcrum]

lemme show you, you do:

cursor.execute(f"INSERT INTO beautiful_table (guild_id, user_name, score, level) VALUES ({ctx.guild.id}, '{ctx.author.name}', score+10, level+1)")
``` and if a user has the above nick, this will hapen:
```sql
Executing query: INSERT INTO beautiful_table (guild_id, user_name, score, level) VALUES (8123059703147203, 'yes'); DROP TABLE beautiful_table;', score+10, level+1)
```SQL query is executing step by step, and when it sees `;` it counts everything after it as a new query, so first some data will be inserted and then your table will be deleted, and then code `', score+10, level+1)` will not work

that's why you use place holders

to prevent this shit from happening

any error?

what is code?

of your cog

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

[hard beacon]

So, I’m about to start this new job and they use discord and M336 as a bot to receive all of there jobs that they need to input for the day or the next day. They are always coming in and I know there is a better way to automate a bot of some sort to take the info from discord and input it into the website that they use to import all the data. I know it won’t be perfect bc sometimes you have to use brain power to decide on situations or if someone doesn’t import the job the correct way. I was just hoping someone could get me started on the right track and I would definitely pay you well. Let me know if this is in your wheelhouse and if so, hit me up!

[limber bison]

Ohh k , so I need to be more carefully when I deal with user inputs and Nick and username think

[silk fulcrum]

M336 💀

[drifting arrow]

aahh.
Im using the command in a thread.. What am I doing wrong? await interaction.thread(auto_archive_duration=60)?
should it be await interaction.channel.thread(auto_archive_duration=60)?

[limber bison]

Else I can user this method

[silk fulcrum]

!rule 9

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

9. Do not offer or ask for paid work of any kind.

[hard beacon]

oh snap, my bad...is there a channel in here that u can? I've been apart of this server for years now

[silk fulcrum]

this is a rule for whole server

[hard beacon]

can someone help me in general then?

[drifting arrow]

When I try and change to interaction.channel i get TypeError: 'Thread' object is not callable 🤔

[silk fulcrum]

interaction.channel returns Thread object, to change auto_archive_duration you need to do thread.edit(auto_archive_duration=60), so await interaction.channel.edit(auto_archive_duration=60)

Ctrl + Z?

[hard beacon]

is that a no?

[drifting arrow]

omg. i was so close lol

[limber bison]

@silk fulcrum sirrrr
await conn.execute(
table.insert(),
{"id":1, "value":"v1"}
)

What about this method ?

Same as Mongodb !!!

[silk fulcrum]

not for mysql

mysql only allows sql queries

[limber bison]

It's , on site

[slate swan]

almost like sql is in the name 🤯

[limber bison]

SQLAlchemy support

[silk fulcrum]

lmao

[slate swan]

bro on 9 percent

[primal token]

Well the whole name shows that its SQL based lol

[silk fulcrum]

well he didnt get that

[primal token]

either way it would depend on drivers lol

[limber bison]

What ?

await conn.execute(
table.insert(),
{"id":1, "value":"v1"}
)
This will work with SQLAlchemy right ?

[silk fulcrum]

what commands dont work?

[primal token]

Just learned CPython isnt JIT compiled only other implementations are, i hope it gets one

[silk fulcrum]

indentation just completely broke

[primal token]

looks like it were nested lol

[silk fulcrum]

bruh command inside command inside command

fix indentation and everything be good

well then do it on pc

[vale wing]

Very sus

[maiden fable]

At last people can stop using the GitHub link to install discord.py v2.0

[limber bison]

Roulette game git code ?

[robust fulcrum]

Guys what's use of discord.py[speed]?

[silk fulcrum]

what is that 😳

[robust fulcrum]

I saw on discord.py official server

[silk fulcrum]

showmepls

[slate swan]

am I your embed visualizer or what

[limber bison]

Love day ka update h

Vai

[robust fulcrum]

Love day?

[silk fulcrum]

well, it's a package with speed up

[limber bison]

Lode

Uff

[robust fulcrum]

Whats different between discord.py and this?

[silk fulcrum]

more speed ig

[limber bison]

Good guess ig

[vale wing]

It just installs additional packages with faster implementation of some stuff (they are just written in C). I can guess they are using uvloop instead of asyncio loop and probably some aiohttp speedups like async dns, ujson and other stuff

[robust fulcrum]

Oh ty

[shrewd apex]

that would actually be helpful like if someone makes some good embed combos saves a lot of braincells for other PPL some gist like how to make good embeds

[vocal snow]

Yes 🥰

[shrewd apex]

value is required if u are doing embed.add_field

[night crater]

you can use \u200b which is a zero width space

[rugged shadow]

I don't get why you're doing that fields thing

It's only one field

[shrewd apex]

"\u200b"

[junior verge]

ive updated the code but it still no work

how to fix?

[lone lichen]

Do u get an error?

[slate swan]

no error on console

[lone lichen]

Does the message send?

[silk fulcrum]

ctx.author.id

wtf is ctx.message.user.id

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

no

[silk fulcrum]

lmao

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.author

updated the code, but still not working :/

[lone lichen]

?

[slate swan]

no it doesn't send

[lone lichen]

Does cur.execute return anything or is it void

[silk fulcrum]

it returns cursor

btw you can use con.execute

[shrewd apex]

intents enabled? u have on_message anywhere?

[lone lichen]

Which library is this?

[shrewd apex]

!d sqlite3.connect

Open a connection to an SQLite database.

[shrewd apex]

and get urself an error handler

[slate swan]

so how do i fix it?

[lone lichen]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

yes i have but i got this code
await bot.process_commands(message)

so it isnt the problem

[lone lichen]

You have to do con.commit() to save changes

[slate swan]

alr

[leaden cosmos]

hello

[lone lichen]

Also do u have error handler in ur code?

[slate swan]

no

[lone lichen]

Hey

[leaden cosmos]

yes?

[lone lichen]

Hey as in greeting

[leaden cosmos]

i'm a starter

[slate swan]

async def register(ctx):
    con = sqlite3.connect('userinfo.db')

    cur = con.cursor()
    
    cur.execute(f"INSERT INTO userinfo (userid, balance) VALUES({ctx.author.id},0)")

    con.commit()
    cur.close()

    
    em=discord.Embed(title=f"You've successfully registered!", description=f"Now you can use currency commands :)")
    await ctx.send(embed=em)```

still no work

[lone lichen]

Put a print statement before sqlite3.connect and after cur.execute

[leaden cosmos]

how to make bot
and also what do we need to code

[lone lichen]

Do you have a basic understanding of python?

[slate swan]

ok

[leaden cosmos]

maybe
i just started in 3 days maybe

[slate swan]

@bot.command(name="register")
async def register(ctx):
    print("Connecting...")
    con = sqlite3.connect('userinfo.db')

    cur = con.cursor()
    
    cur.execute(f"INSERT INTO userinfo (userid, balance) VALUES({ctx.author.id},0)")

    con.commit()
    cur.close()

    
    em=discord.Embed(title=f"You've successfully registered!", description=f"Now you can use currency commands :)")
    await ctx.send(embed=em)```

it did print connecting... but database still not work

[lone lichen]

Id learn python basics before trying to make a bot

[leaden cosmos]

i know a little bit discord py

[lone lichen]

!resource python

[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.

[lone lichen]

Ty 😂

[lone lichen]

Click this

[leaden cosmos]

done

[slate swan]

.

[lone lichen]

Read a bit, pick something u like and start learning

[leaden cosmos]

ok
and my codes ready

[lone lichen]

Wdym

[leaden cosmos]

my bot done

just some small codes

[lone lichen]

Attach a debugger and see where it stops working

[lone lichen]

Cool

[slate swan]

how

[leaden cosmos]

my bot server now has verification
thanks for the site

[lone lichen]

Also check out sqlalchemy for working with sql databases

[lone lichen]

What site?

[leaden cosmos]

resources site

[lone lichen]

Okay

[slate swan]

it stopped working starting from this command
con = sqlite3.connect('userinfo.db')

@lone lichen

[lone lichen]

!d sqlite3.connect

[unkempt canyon]

sqlite3.connect

sqlite3.connect(database, timeout=5.0, detect_types=0, isolation_level='DEFERRED', check_same_thread=True, factory=sqlite3.Connection, cached_statements=128, uri=False)```
Open a connection to an SQLite database.

[slate swan]

?

[lone lichen]

I’ m reading it so I can see how It’ s done

[slate swan]

ok

[lone lichen]

And u dont get an exception?

[slate swan]

no

[lone lichen]

Try to pass in full filepath for db argument

[slate swan]

ok

it still doesnt work @lone lichen

async def register(ctx):
    print("Connecting...")
    db = sqlite3.connect('/Users/bai/Documents/Personal Things/PythonDiscord/UserInfo/userinfo.db')
    cur = con.cursor()
    cur.execute(f"INSERT INTO userinfo (userid, balance) VALUES({ctx.author.id},0)")
    con.commit()
    cur.close()

    
    em=discord.Embed(title=f"You've successfully registered!", description=f"Now you can use currency commands :)")
    await ctx.send(embed=em)```

[lone lichen]

Put the part where u insert into db in a seperate py file and run it there

And see if it inserts into db

And instead of ctx.author.id put any number

[slate swan]

no

[lone lichen]

I wanna see if that would work

[slate swan]

ok

[lone lichen]

Leave everything here as it is

Just copy paste that part

[slate swan]

nope it didnt work

[lone lichen]

Idfk, try reinstalling sqlite3 or restarting ur ide

[slate swan]

...

[junior verge]

anyone

[vocal snow]

maybe it wasn't feeling well

[lone lichen]

😂

[lone lichen]

Where is it supposed to send a message

[slate swan]

async def register(ctx):
    db = sqlite3.connect("userinfo.db")
    
    cur = con.cursor()

    await cur.execute(
        "INSERT INTO userinfo (userid, balance) VALUES({ctx.author.id},0)",
        (
            ctx.author.id
        ),
    )
    con.commit()
    cur.close()
    
    em=discord.Embed(title=f"You've successfully registered!", description=f"Now you can use currency commands :)")
    await ctx.send(embed=em)```

i changed the code, but still no work! :/

[glad thicket]

Discord.py 2.0 is OUT!

!pypi discord.py

[unkempt canyon]

discord.py v2.0.0

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[vale wing]

Gg

Ima learn it prob

Although I prefer disnake shortcuts

[vale wing]

How the heck do you want to reinstall a builtin module lmao

[lone lichen]

Oh It’ s builtin 😂

[vale wing]

Yeah

[lone lichen]

I usually just use an orm

[slate swan]

async def register(ctx):
    db = sqlite3.connect("userinfo.db")
    cursor = db.cursor()
    cursor.execute(f"INSERT INTO userinfo (userid, balance) VALUES ({ctx.author.id}, {0})")
    db.commit()
    cursor.close()
    
    em=discord.Embed(title=f"You've successfully registered!", description=f"Now you can use currency commands :)")
    await ctx.send(embed=em)```

How to get this thing working? database was already created but it just cant connect or insert?? this already wasted so much of my time :/

[shrewd apex]

is the table created

[slate swan]

yes it is

[ionic edge]

i am getting this error

[maiden fable]

Probably the wrong bot application?

[ionic edge]

naah its the same

[maiden fable]

Other than that, there's no explanation for that error

[slate swan]

someone pls help

!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.

is it like this? not working

[silk fulcrum]

why await cursor.execute?

its not aiosqlite to await

[slate swan]

ok fixed

[slate swan]

it is

[shrewd apex]

thats ur whole code 🗿

so u just have that one function in the file u are running?

[flat swallow]

How do I convert if ladder code to ctx code?

[flat swallow]

When you have no imports but python can hack your brain

[shrewd apex]

what u are saying dosent make sense

[flat swallow]

How do I convert this:

to smth like this:

[silk fulcrum]

hybrid**_**command

[shrewd apex]

these aren't even commands just some random message on sending some stuff

[flat swallow]

Yes

But these are the only things working

the rest isnt

[shrewd apex]

better do that in on_message only when u have decent command make a command function

[flat swallow]

That's what I was doing

But the actual commands aren't working

[shrewd apex]

yeah so just make that hybrid_command() and u good to go

[shrewd apex]

u have a process_commands ?

in on_message

[flat swallow]

Even when it was @bot.command() it wasnt working

[flat swallow]

no

What does that do

[shrewd apex]

that the reason why

[shrewd apex]

also u prolly not syncing ur tree either

[flat swallow]

wdym by that

Where should process_commands be

[shrewd apex]

just add await bot.process_commands(message)

last line of on_message

no one gonna comb thru ur ss and find out where error is there u have debug all this by urself

[flat swallow]

Or send the code

its so small my glasses cant read bro

[primal token]

string concatenation 😔

[flat swallow]

What does that do tho

[shrewd apex]

still doubtful unless like u have dev in very good mood

[flat swallow]

lol

do u have the intents and perms?

how do u run all this without any imports...?

[primal token]

why not just use listen()???

[flat swallow]

ok

Why am I stuck here now

Honestly, I don't know enough about Discord.py to help you :(

Most I can do is say try the documentation 😅

???

Also can someone explain how to use aiohttp

[vale wing]

Just check their docs

[vale wing]

Just wait or try again

[shrewd apex]

more explaining on my part

[flat swallow]

lol

[vale wing]

Use @bot.listen() instead of @bot.event

[flat swallow]

bro what is that intents for

why is it giving that error

[vale wing]

You gotta define intents

!intents

[flat swallow]

how

thnx

[vale wing]

What kind of genius construction is this

try:
    pass
except:
    print("EnvironmentError")```

Pass does nothing it can't cause any exceptions

[flat swallow]

I didn't make that part

tbh I just blindly copied from google that part

its so that the bot doesn't run multiple instances apparently

[vale wing]

🧐

[flat swallow]

very dumb on my part i know

[vale wing]

How does try: pass help with that lmoa

[flat swallow]

idek

but if i remove it

[vale wing]

Literally nothing will change

[flat swallow]

it throws an error which is annoying so i dont disturb it much

[vale wing]

Probably runtime error and you definitely don't handle it like this

[flat swallow]

oh

it worked so i was happy but is there a better way

[vale wing]

I honestly never had a need to handle it because I do graceful shutdowns

It often occurs because of bad shutdown

[flat swallow]

I have an uptime bot running which causes multiple instances

[vale wing]

Cringe

[flat swallow]

ye

I hate python

Why aren't my commands working

[vale wing]

I hate replit

That's why your commands aren't working

[flat swallow]

There isn't even an error 😭

[vale wing]

Jk

[flat swallow]

lmao

How do you make commands anyway

@bot.command or everything in the event

[flat swallow]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/upecuqogoc

enjoy this mess

[flat swallow]

I have both tbh

I originally used everything in event

but now i am using bot.command

but since i switch to bot.command, it hasnt been working

[vale wing]

Have you tried changing @bot.event to @bot.listen()

[valid hatch]

I have a question. Now that discord.py 2.0 has been released, which one do you recomment for slash command bots:
discord.py ou discord-interactions?

[vale wing]

discord.py obviously

discord-interactions was created to add support for interactions to dpy because it didn't have them, now it does so why not use the main lib

[flat swallow]

Nope

[ionic edge]

  client.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')```

[flat swallow]

still nothing
code it DEAD

[ionic edge]

i am new tod discord2.0

[flat swallow]

send code

[ionic edge]

intent = discord.Intents.all()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or('$'),
                      intents=intent)
client.remove_command('help')      

async def load():
    for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
        if filename.endswith('.py'):
            client.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')

asyncio.run(load())```

[flat swallow]

wtf is commands.when_mentioned_or

why don't u directly make it a string

command_prefix='$'

[ionic edge]

🤦‍♂️

[sage otter]

await load_extension like the error tells you to do

[ionic edge]

i am getting the error in load()

[flat swallow]

it should be await

ye like he said

[sage otter]

It allows the bots mention to be used as a prefix as well

[flat swallow]

:o

[ionic edge]

new error

[flat swallow]

Is it a string value?

[flat swallow]

What is it :D

[ionic edge]

nvm i fixed that xd

[flat swallow]

My code still dead :/

[jovial spear]

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


Can someone explain why this happens? Code seems to be perfect 😕

[sage otter]

It’s a function that’s returns a string or multiple.

[sage otter]

Do you actually ever load the extension.

[jovial spear]

yep

on_ready works

[flat swallow]

Can anyone help me with my code

[ionic edge]

iscord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.ping' raised an error: TypeError: object NoneType can't be used in 'await' expression```

[ionic edge]

Bruh

    async def get_prefix(self,message):
        id = message.guild.id
        self.cursor = await self.connection.cursor()
        await self.cursor.execute('SELECT prefix FROM prefixtable WHERE guild_id=?',(id,))
        prefix = await self.cursor.fetchone()
        await self.connection.commit()
        return prefix or '>'

Guys i have this function to get prefix
I want that when someone mention my bot it sends the bot prefix
How to do that?

[mossy jacinth]

hi i want to send the answers the user put into a modal to be sent into a channel but i get this?

[pale turtle]

You need a discord.TextChannel object

[robust fulcrum]

Ig you need to fetch the channel

[potent spear]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html#how-do-i-send-a-message-to-a-specific-channel

[ionic edge]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if bot.user.mentioned_in(message):
        await message.channel.send("My Prefix is " + asyncio.run(get_prefix())```

[pale turtle]

Don't start with a fetch, try to get the channel from the bot's cache

[ionic edge]

something like this i guess

[robust fulcrum]

Try
channel = client.get_channel(id)

[pale turtle]

Where is ctx defined

[robust fulcrum]

That's event

[pale turtle]

Do message.channel.send ig

[potent spear]

why are you asyncio.runing that function though?

also, on_message only takes a message arg

[robust fulcrum]

And my prefix function takes arguments

[slate swan]

How can I disable select menu after it's been used?

[robust fulcrum]

Guys why i am getting this error?

[mossy jacinth]

...

already got it 💀 forgot to add () after view=back

[glad cradle]

what are the best databases to use for a Discord Bot? (ex MySQL, SQLite etc)

[night crater]

Sqlite for small bots, postgres for bigger bots tends to be what alot of people use

[lone lichen]

this is one of many beauties of hosting on replit

[lone lichen]

rly depends on what ur storing

[lone lichen]

u already have something that occupies port 8080

[shrewd apex]

why use sqlite ain't that sync

[robust fulcrum]

Hmmm no

[shrewd apex]

atleast use aiosqlite

[robust fulcrum]

Me?

[lone lichen]

are u using sqlite?

[lone lichen]

try using a different port

[shrewd apex]

what's in this events cog

[robust fulcrum]

Aiosqlite

[robust fulcrum]

I not event using asyncio it still showing error

[shrewd apex]

u are prolly using something which uses asyncio.run

[lone lichen]

its not bot error, just use a different port

[robust fulcrum]

No

I never used asyncio.run in my life

[shrewd apex]

do as enslo says then

[glad cradle]

guilds settings, users infos etc

[robust fulcrum]

Which port should i use?

[lone lichen]

idk 80

as long as its free

[lone lichen]

https://www.red-gate.com/simple-talk/databases/nosql/how-to-choose-between-sql-and-nosql-databases/

this may be helpful for future

[robust fulcrum]

Only 80?

Or 8080?

[shrewd apex]

2056

[robust fulcrum]

Do it work same as 8080?

[shrewd apex]

it's just a number

pick one

[lone lichen]

if 8080 is already occupied u wont use 8080

[lone lichen]

yes

also show whats inside of events cog as Asher said

[glad cradle]

ok thx

[robust fulcrum]

I still getting same error

[lone lichen]

show

[lone lichen]

show code for flask app and events cog

[robust fulcrum]

Ok

[robust fulcrum]

from flask import Flask
from threading import Thread

app = Flask('')

@app.route('/')

def keep_alive():
    t = Thread(target=run)
    t.start()

😢

[lone lichen]

press ctrl+shift+s and put in kill 1

also send code of events cog

[sick birch]

Looks like discord.py v2.0 is officially out, can someone confirm?

[glad cradle]

yes it's out

d.py v2.0 is on pypi

finally pip install shit

[sick birch]

Awesome. Now I won’t have to tell people how to manually install 2.0 lol

[glad cradle]

[glad cradle]

as you can read the port 2056 is already occupied by another program/process

just use the port 8080

[lone lichen]

yess

[lone lichen]

this whole thing started cus port 8080 was occupied 😂

[cerulean shale]

yo, i recently changed to dpy2.0 and since then my bot is coming online but it aint taking any commands

pls help ;-;

it is not even giving any errors

[glad cradle]

😐

it is usually not occupied

[lone lichen]

check migrating to 2.0 page

[cerulean shale]

ight ;-;

[glad cradle]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrating.html

[cerulean shale]

is it really worth migrating to 2.0???

[glad cradle]

yes

[lone lichen]

Basically, you get support for interactions

[lone lichen]

check the page and u will see if its worth it

[cerulean shale]

thats it right? is it worth it tho?

[glad cradle]

Read the new added things #381965829857738772 message

also discord have implemented breaking changes, if you'll not migrate to a recent version of the library your Bot could broke

[cerulean shale]

oh

[cerulean shale]

dont have access to this link 💀

[glad cradle]

it's the d.py server

[cerulean shale]

oh

[slate swan]

there's more

I don't think "interactions" sum up all of the features

[lone lichen]

ofc there is more but thats all available to read on their site

[glad cradle]

there are 800 changes and 1700 commits

😐

[cerulean shale]

yo completely new to cogs. Pls tell me the mistakes I have in this cog ;-;

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @cerulean shale!

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

[cerulean shale]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/kowutamiru

pls help ;-;

[glad cradle]

it's self.bot to use the bot object, not bot

[cerulean shale]

can you pls elaborate?

[glad cradle]

also don't make Api call inside on_ready event

[glad cradle]

you've putted in your __init__
self.bot = bot
self.bot represent you bot object so whenever you need the bot object inside a function you should use self.bot

[cerulean shale]

oooooooooooh

[glad cradle]

!d discord.on_ready also

[unkempt canyon]

so in here instead of just bot.change_presence, i should use self.bot.change_presence?

[cerulean shale]

@glad cradle sorry for the ping but just tell me this

[glad cradle]

Don't change_presence (or make API calls) in on_ready within your Bot or Client.
Discord has a high chance to completely disconnect you during the READY or GUILD_CREATE events (1006 close code) and there is nothing you can do to prevent it.

Instead set the activity and status kwargs in the constructor of these Classes.

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", activity=..., status=...)

As noted in the docs, on_ready is also triggered multiple times, not just once.

Basically: don't 👏 do 👏 shit 👏 in 👏 on_ready.

[cerulean shale]

cant i just define self.bot=bot tho?

[glad cradle]

yes it should be await self.bot.change_presence(...) however that's not a good idea

[digital forge]

how to ping the message to which you are replying??

[glad cradle]

why should you do that, do you have any idea how OOP and classes work in python?

[digital forge]

sorry for wrongly phrasing my statement, but how do you tag the message you are responding too

[robust fulcrum]

It is also occupied

[slate swan]

yes I understood and that pretty much answers your question

[robust fulcrum]

Wait wat

I just did
from main import get_prefiz
And i got a port error
How is this connected?

[glad cradle]

do you mean the reference of the referenced message?

[robust fulcrum]

@lone lichen when i removed from main import get_prefix my code started working and i not got port error
Do you know why was i getting it?

[digital forge]

im extremely dumb , please forgive my low iq , what i was searching for was message.reply()

[glad cradle]

ok

[worn onyx]

could anyone plz help me?

[glad cradle]

yes, explain your problem

[slate swan]

absolutely not

[slate swan]

it's okay, dw

[glad cradle]

[slate swan]

that emojis gives me the creeps, jeez

[glad cradle]

[worn onyx]

any solution?

[vocal snow]

replit moment

[glad cradle]

is this the shell?

I mean the shell not the console

[worn onyx]

in shell showing same error

[glad cradle]

do cntrl + shift + r

if this does not work delete your repl and create a new one

[lone lichen]

Python executes files when u import them

so if you have keep_alive() in there outside if __name__ == '__main__', it will get executed when u run the main file and when u import it, meaning, you will have 2 flask servers running on the same port

[glad cradle]

__name__

[lone lichen]

its cus of markup

[shrewd apex]

just reminded me all those old 1.7.3 users on replit replit gonna update them all to 2.0 and then bot gonna crash for them

poetry auto update 🙏

[glad cradle]

ahah

[vocal snow]

Lmaoo going to be fun

[glad cradle]

not really fun

[glad cradle]

this Link will be spammed

[lone lichen]

replit has many great features like shared ip, underpowered machines, shit code editor and more random issues

[vocal snow]

As if they will read it

[lone lichen]

😂

[vocal snow]

😂 💀

[robust fulcrum]

I just imported get_prefix from my main file not keep_alive

[robust fulcrum]

It's code editor messes up the indentation

    async def get_prefix(self,message):
        id = message.guild.id
        self.cursor = await self.connection.cursor()
        await self.cursor.execute('SELECT prefix FROM prefixtable WHERE guild_id=?',(id,))
        prefix = await self.cursor.fetchone()
        await self.connection.commit()
        return prefix or '>'

Guys i have this func in my bot class
How can I use it in cogs?

[lone lichen]

and if you have a friend, you can take advantage of their collaboration feature and constantly delete each others code while trying to code at the same time

[robust fulcrum]

Lol

[vocal snow]

do you have access to a bot object in said cog?

[robust fulcrum]

How?

I not able to understand what you mean

[vocal snow]

it's a yes or no question

do you have access to a bot object

[robust fulcrum]

Ye

this self.bot = bot?

[vocal snow]

ok, so just use bot.get_prefix then

[robust fulcrum]

It not worked

[vocal snow]

you need to give more details

[vocal snow]

error is pretty self explanatory

[robust fulcrum]

Oh me dumb

How would I add a other datatype to str lmao

[vocal snow]

read the whole error

carefully

from the very start

[robust fulcrum]

Ah it's giving me a object not prefix
Idk how to fix this error

[vocal snow]

what error

[robust fulcrum]

This

[vocal snow]

ok, you read the first sentence of it?

[robust fulcrum]

It says not awaited

[robust fulcrum]

I have to do await self.bot.get_prefix()?

[vocal snow]

I think you can figure this out without help

[robust fulcrum]

Hmmm?

[robust fulcrum]

Ye i fixed it now

Thanks for help tho

[slate swan]

is there a way to disable select menu after its been used?

            for item in self.children:
                if isinstance(item, discord.ui.Select):
                    item.disabled=True
            await interaction.message.edit(view=self)``` i have this code right here but i get error that `self` doesnt have attribute `children`

since self is in my parameters

[vocal snow]

what is self here

ui.View obj?

[slate swan]

discord.ui.Select class

why ? @vocal snow

[vocal snow]

!d discord.ui.Select

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Select

class discord.ui.Select(*, custom_id=..., placeholder=None, min_values=1, max_values=1, options=..., disabled=False, row=None)```
Represents a UI select menu.

This is usually represented as a drop down menu.

In order to get the selected items that the user has chosen, use [`Select.values`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.Select.values "discord.ui.Select.values").

New in version 2.0.

[vocal snow]

it doesn't have a children attribute

which makes sense because children is supposed to be the components of a View

you can use self.view.children there

[cold sonnet]

which is just self...

[vocal snow]

what?

[cold sonnet]

set self.disabled to True

[vocal snow]

self.view.children would be all components of the view

not just the select menu

[slate swan]

ok but this makes the select menu to be sent disabled

i want to be disabled after its been used

[cold sonnet]

probabilities that the View only has the select menu are high, but not sure so sorry
he checks with an if if the children is a selectmenu

[slate swan]

the code i sent is working for buttons but i try to convert it for select menu

[cold sonnet]

so he's looking for self

[vocal snow]

I didn't link that to show you ut's _init_

go to the doc

check it's attributes

[vocal snow]

if he only wanted to disable the selectmenu why would be using children in the first place

[slate swan]

but i want to disable only the select menu 😂

[cold sonnet]

I don't know, it's got nothing to do with the question either

[vocal snow]

then why are you using children??

[slate swan]

cause i didnt know that ui.Select hadn't attribute children

[vocal snow]

that makes no sense at all but ok

[slate swan]

nvm

[cold sonnet]

so if you wanna disable the select menu that was clicked you do
self.disabled = True

and edit the message

if you wanna disable something else this advice is useless

[slate swan]

so await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)

or await interaction.message.edit(view=self)

[vocal snow]

Maybe the deleted message has no content

[golden tapir]

i am following a tutorial on slash commands they tell me to install this and i do it then they tell me to import slash commands i do all of that but i get error saying discord_slash does not exist

idk what i am missing

[sick birch]

Discord.py has slash commands, why do you need the 3rd party lib?

[cloud dawn]

    @command(name="mute", description="Mute a certain member.")
    @describe(
        member="The member that is going to be muted.",
        length="Amount of time to mute the member.",
        unit="Unit of time.",
        reason="Why this member is getting muted."
    )
    @choices(unit=[
        Choice(name="Days", value=86400),
        Choice(name="Hours", value=3600),
        Choice(name="Minutes", value=60),
        Choice(name="Seconds", value=1)
    ])
    async def moderation_mute(
            self, interaction: Interaction,
            member: Member,
            length: Range[int, 1, 2419200],
            unit: Choice[int],
            reason: str = "No reason specified"
    ) -> None:
        second_amount = sec if (sec := length*unit.value) < 2419200 else 2419200
        dt = datetime.now().astimezone() + timedelta(seconds=second_amount)

        await member.timeout(dt, reason=reason)
        await interaction.response.send_message(
            f":ok_hand: Muted {member.mention} for `{reason}` until <t:{int(dt.timestamp())}:F>"
        )
``` any ideas of improvement.

And yes the length/unit time is on purpose.

[final walrus]

Would you guys use a database to store data such as user info, or user stats specifically for your bot.. Like let's say your bot gives each user a balance, would you guys store that in a database?

[cloud dawn]

Balance yes but that's about it, anything related like user info I just get from the object.

[final walrus]

Oh yeah I ment things that you can't get

[elder storm]

Hey Guys I need help

[silk fulcrum]

just send problem

[sick birch]

Reset your token

[elder storm]

already tried

idk y line 6 has an error

[silk fulcrum]

2.0 is now on PyPI so everyone will have problems with that

[sick birch]

MTAw0TgOOTc1Nzc4NDYwODc50A.G2j0II.ltp21k-NZbHHiRT44E4Poosolt3493rjOvW4Og

should invalidate it

[lone lichen]

yes, its. a data access object for orders entity

[sick birch]

Anyway, intents are required in 2.0

[elder storm]

what do i do then?

[lone lichen]

LMFAO

[silk fulcrum]

some 0's are turned into O here

[lone lichen]

does it?

[vale wing]

How the hell you typed it

[silk fulcrum]

@elder storm reset your token please

[sick birch]

idk blame the OCR

[elder storm]

ok

[lone lichen]

iphones have ocr

[silk fulcrum]

you should not reveal it here

[vale wing]

What's that

[silk fulcrum]

it can be used in bad way

[lone lichen]

optical character recognition i believe

[elder storm]

done still shows errors

[sick birch]

I'm just trying to get discord to force reset it

[elder storm]

oh ok

[vale wing]

Understandable

[silk fulcrum]

works wrong

[vale wing]

I am android user since my very first phone so idk about iphones

[lone lichen]

will it actually reset the token if u send it here?

[sick birch]

Here, github, and a few other places

[lone lichen]

kinda sick

[silk fulcrum]

@unkempt canyon does it, no?

[sick birch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also as for the OCR, I'm doing it on my macbook

[slate swan]

🗿2.0 is out on pypi hmm

[sick birch]

I can open it in the preview app and highlight and select and open links and whatnot from images

[silk fulcrum]

it is already for 10 hours or more what are u talking 'bout

[slate swan]

would be funny watching people getting missing kwargs error for intents

[silk fulcrum]

already

[slate swan]

well i just logged in to discord so

[silk fulcrum]

right now

[ionic edge]

like templete ping command in cogs with slash enabled and main file setup

[shrewd apex]

how to raise a custom exception using the error handling event

[silk fulcrum]

raise CustomException? 😳

[shrewd apex]

i did that in my code but it's only being caught locally with a try except when i am adding isinstance in error handler it's not being raised

[quaint epoch]

class CustomException(Exception):
  pass
raise CustomException```

[shrewd apex]

yeah that's not working

[quaint epoch]

it has to inherit from another exception

[shrewd apex]

if i use try except i can print it i can see but the error handler is not raising it

[maiden fable]

Show yr code

What are you subclassing?

[shrewd apex]

sure just a sec

[slate swan]

raise CustomException(message)

it should be an instance, not the class

[maiden fable]

Ah yes

[shrewd apex]

class InvalidFlag(Exception):
    pass
raise InvalidFlag(message)
# in error handler
elif isinstance (error, InvalidFlag):
   ...

[slate swan]

is that error raised inside a command?

[shrewd apex]

no

[maiden fable]

Then how tf do u expect the handler to catch it 😐

[shrewd apex]

in another function for a custom convertor

[maiden fable]

The error handler only catches errors while invoking a command

[shrewd apex]

it's in a custom convertor tho the ones which u typehint

hmm ok i see

[maiden fable]

So u have subclassed ext.Converter?

(I forgot the exact class name)

[shrewd apex]

commands.Convertor

but yes i did

[sick birch]

Can converters return a type other than themselves? How would that work with typehinting 🤨

[shrewd apex]

wdym i didn't get u

[sick birch]

What type should a custom converter return?

[shrewd apex]

u can create custom convertor like discord.py does when u typehint with discord.Member

[shrewd apex]

mine returns a list or a tuple

depending on a few cases

[sick birch]

So the typehinted argument is a list or tuple, while the typehint says it’s a class?

Seems cursed

[shrewd apex]

no argument is only a string and i parse it to return stuff

[slate swan]

anything you wish to lol

the typehint stuff actually works this way ->

async def foo(ctx, arg: Converter):
   ...
``` `Converter` here needs to be an instance of commands.Converter with a `convert` method which returns the result, the raw argument is passed in the convert method...

[sick birch]

Yeah I can’t imagine that playing well with typecheckers

[brazen raft]

The convert class method? Anything that you want the argument to be

Actually, is it a class method or a static method

[sick birch]

You’d expect arg to be a Converter instance

[shrewd apex]

ok so i have another question u just said the error handler won't get triggered if not in command so y does the else condition in my error handler get triggered

but not the elif 😔

[slate swan]

yeah

[elder storm]

Guys help plz

M tryna make a Discord bot tht replies back but this bot isnt responding in my server even tho its online

[slate swan]

😔 i didn't say that, hunter did
can you show the error handler code

[silk fulcrum]

i dont think you've really hidden the token but ok whatever

[slate swan]

whats hour discord.py version

*your

[elder storm]

how do i check tht?

[silk fulcrum]

2.0

[slate swan]

check it using pip show discord.py , if its 2.0 add message_content intents

[elder storm]

yes its 2.0.0

[elder storm]

where to add?

[silk fulcrum]

@elder storm i thought you did discord.Intents.all() as i told you but ok sure

[elder storm]

i did tht too and it didnt work

[slate swan]

you can do something like ```py
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

client = discord.Client(intents=intents)

[elder storm]

error again

[silk fulcrum]

what error

[slate swan]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

[slate swan]

read the dev portal part

[silk fulcrum]

bruh

[slate swan]

weird though, message_content is not a previlaged intent yet

[silk fulcrum]

vilaged

[elder storm]

what do I do?

[silk fulcrum]

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.

[slate swan]

https://discord.dev > applications > your bot > bot option > toggle the message content intents button to on

[silk fulcrum]

what is this and how do I fix it? (did python3.10 -m pip install -U discord.py[speed])

full error: https://hastebin.com/okedibeday.sql

[torn sail]

thats what commands.parameter is for

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/5c7f6dd37e9b0e664a39520a025e247cca4b5b7e/setup.py#L48

cchardet is not supported for 3.10 yet, and the library is trying to install it

[unkempt canyon]

setup.py line 48

'cchardet==2.1.7; python_version < "3.10"',```

[slate swan]

because you have 3.10

[silk fulcrum]

sed

[torn sail]

that was fixed recently within discord.py

[slate swan]

they didn't update it on pypi then maybe

[torn sail]

yeah will come in 2.0.1

[slate swan]

well then they can use the github version

[silk fulcrum]

its 2.1 in github btw lmao

if not changed yet

[slate swan]

$ git clone https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py
$ cd discord.py
$ python3 -m pip install -U .[speed]

can use this

[silk fulcrum]

how do I implement this into requirements.txt?

[slate swan]

dk if the speed version can be installed with pip directly or not

[torn sail]

cchardet==2.1.7; python_version < "3.10

[silk fulcrum]

i have to downgrade my python version?

[torn sail]

no it means only install if py version < 3.10

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/setup.py#L48

[unkempt canyon]

setup.py line 48

'cchardet==2.1.7; python_version < "3.10"',```

[silk fulcrum]

okay, I guess I'll just wait until cchardet is supported in 3.10

[shrewd apex]

what u need chardet for?

!pypi chardet

[unkempt canyon]

chardet v5.0.0

Universal encoding detector for Python 3

[silk fulcrum]

discord.py[speed]

[slate swan]

just install the speed version dependencies conditionally instead of installation discord.py[speed]

[shrewd apex]

!pypi cchardet

[unkempt canyon]

cchardet v2.1.7

cChardet is high speed universal character encoding detector.

[shrewd apex]

hmm written in c

[slate swan]

if you really want some speed boost and you're on a Unix bases system you can use uvloop

it replaces the default asyncio event loop and provides better performance

!pip uvloop

[unkempt canyon]

uvloop v0.16.0

Fast implementation of asyncio event loop on top of libuv

[shrewd apex]

just use third party compilers to compile the code before then run

[silk fulcrum]

have it

[slate swan]

that needs strict type checking, else it will be of no use

[shrewd apex]

tru

[shrewd apex]

i am gonna make u do that
