[primal token]

It initiates it, doesnt quite construct it

[slate swan]

generally speaking, __new__() is the allocator, __init__() is the initializer, but both are constructors (__new__() can do __init__()'s job as well).

[pliant gulch]

Initiate is the same thing as construct though

[slate swan]

super simple.

[primal token]

Can you define whats initiate and construct, in your eyes?

Because in my eyes, constructor is like building a house, while an initater is actually painting and making the house look actually great and "liveable".

[slate swan]

Poor analogy

[sick birch]

Folks I love the discussion but could we move it to either an OT or maybe #internals-and-peps? thanks

[slate swan]

Oh, sorry.

[primal token]

Its not that bad, its just not related to programming at all kek

[slate swan]

Lol that's why it's a poor analogy

I do kind of see your point but still not gonna give it to you

[primal token]

ok

[valid void]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='/')

this is causing a error did i format it wrong?

or is it all wrong

[slate swan]

If I needed help with my python discord bot would I get it here?

[pliant gulch]

This analogy does not work, simply for the fact that a “house” is a term which means a collective of other things. A house has plumbing, walls, foundations and rooms. Let’s take this into programming terms, where does dict come into place? Where does the bases come from? Where does the name come from? It comes from new but what are they? They are attributes. Yes crazy the constructor declares variables into the class namespace. What does the init do? It declares variables into the instance namespace. Now what if we take what you said to the extreme? Constructor makes the house, but what is the house without its “attributes”? Is this just foundation, is this just pavement? Can it then be truly called a house?

[slate swan]

I usually do = commands.Bot(command_prefix= prefix, intents=intents) and it works just fine

[slate swan]

Yessir.

[wanton fractal]

you would need intents

[slate swan]

Can you help me?

[slate swan]

Can you show more code? It's likely the syntax is invalid elsewhere and the compiler does not understand it.

[wanton fractal]

as they are a new feature in discord's api that allow you to even start the bot

[slate swan]

?

[slate swan]

Anyone can help you if you ask questions here.

But I will try, yes :)

[primal token]

Intents dont even exist in the discord REST API

[valid void]

the rest of the code is hypixel auctionhouse api lol

[slate swan]

ty, I keep getting this error:

[slate swan]

I don't know what this means sorry lol

[slate swan]

What are you trying to do? And why are you trying to do this import?

im using VSCode so if you want a Live Share link I can DM you one

[wanton fractal]

what exactly is default_permissions for

[slate swan]

That's not safe.

[wanton fractal]

that's my question

[slate swan]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[wanton fractal]

do you mean to import intents?

[slate swan]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

[slate swan]

@commands.cooldown(1,10,commands.BucketType.channel)
@default_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def purge(ctx, amount_to_delete: int = 0):
    if amount_to_delete < 1 or amount_to_delete > 200:
        await ctx.send('You need to enter a value between 1 and 200')
    else:
        await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount_to_delete)
        await ctx.response.send_message(content=f"Sucsessfully purged {amount_to_delete} messages!", ephemeral=True)```

[slate swan]

Why not?

Stuff can go wrong, you can handle permissions wrong, expose secrets/tokens, etc.

[slate swan]

I can always reset the token after

[slate swan]

This is recommended.

That's not the point

[valid void]

so like

command = commands.Bot(command_prefix= /, intents=intents)

idk how to work with intents

[wanton fractal]

well yes but you would need to define intents

[slate swan]

intents = discord.Intents.all()

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_permissions

@discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(**perms)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the current channel permissions, not the guild wide permissions.

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under [`discord.Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions").

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

[slate swan]

Did you mean to use this instead?

[valid void]

ty good sir

[slate swan]

I'm a ma'am :p

[slate swan]

No clue

[valid void]

sorry

[slate swan]

so from discord.ext.commands import default_permissions?

[primal token]

The word "house" doesnt really mean a collective of things precisely, but it doesnt contain the things mentioned, I wouldnt really say that __init__ declares variables to a instance "namespace"? You mean the object? Well a house without its "attributes" is just a building with no rooms etc, that actually make it a home. I do understand your point but i wouldnt say its wrong or right either

[slate swan]

its ok

[wanton fractal]

well

are you trying to check the permissions of a user

[slate swan]

yes

[wanton fractal]

then yes what @slate swan posted above

[slate swan]

I can send you the code part I use it in

[wanton fractal]

@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)

[primal token]

Just use the commands module object to access it?

[valid void]

so it should look like

command = commands.Bot (command_prefix= /,intents = discord.Intents.all())?

[pliant gulch]

Are walls not an attribute as well? And no I did mean the namespace, you access instance attributes after all using the namespace via dot notation

[wanton fractal]

yes

[slate swan]

I think so

[pliant gulch]

The whole point is that, a house is only a house with all its attributes

[wanton fractal]

@valid void

[valid void]

hello

[pliant gulch]

Hell, my points of name, dict and bases

[slate swan]

Im new to discord.py so I got no clue what you mean

[wanton fractal]

dms i'll explain

[slate swan]

@slate swan

from discord.ext import commands

@commands.has_permissions(...)

Like this.

[narrow axle]

got a question, when I have a discord bot and its coding, there's an API I made with it, am I allowed to ask for help here?

[slate swan]

Yes I have that import already

[slate swan]

^^

[slate swan]

.

You didn't understand it, so I elaborated.

oh

ic

[slate swan]

then y I have dis?

Not sure, you tell me.

!d discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord

In order to work with the library and the Discord API in general, we must first create a Discord Bot account.

Creating a Bot account is a pretty straightforward process.

Similar names: disnake.discord, nextcord.discord

[slate swan]

You can view the Discord.py docs there.

[narrow axle]

the commands extension is like this:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

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

@bot.command(name="hello")
async def hello(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Hello")

this is what they mean

[slate swan]

What if I wanted a / command?

[narrow axle]

for a slash command, it would be this:

[primal token]

What does the init do? It declares variables into the instance namespace.

This is a quite generically worded statement, i would say.

[slate swan]

I mean that is exactly what __init__() does usually

[slate swan]

bc this is one of my / commands

@client.slash_command(guild_ids=GIDS, description='Bye-bye, Messages..')
@commands.cooldown(1,10,commands.BucketType.channel)
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def purge(ctx, amount_to_delete: int = 0):
    if amount_to_delete < 1 or amount_to_delete > 200:
        await ctx.send('You need to enter a value between 1 and 200')
    else:
        await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount_to_delete)
        await ctx.response.send_message(content=f"Sucsessfully purged {amount_to_delete} messages!", ephemeral=True)```

[pliant gulch]

Okay, you can try to argue otherwise and have valid points, I could do whatever I wanted in new and have it not construct a class at all

I’m still wondering what you have to say with “houses” though?

[slate swan]

(I use @client instead of @bot)

[primal token]

But a constructor is like the outside walls of the class while the design of the rooms etc is the attributes which you can change and are unique depending ofc, In my eyes maybe you can give your opinion on mine to clear any confusion i may possess?

[narrow axle]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands


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

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
  print(f"{bot.user} is ready")
  
  bot.tree.sync()

tree = bot.tree

@tree.command(name="hello")
async def hello(interaction:discord.Interaction):
  await interaction.response.send_message("Hi")

[primal token]

ok

[narrow axle]

bot.tree.sync is to sync all your slash commands so it works

[primal token]

I like houses, sorry

[primal token]

string concatenation 😔

[pliant gulch]

Okay, so when new constructs a class with bases or whatever it’s double under is, what is that then? Is that not an attribute or is that a wall? Can you access it via the namespace or not?

[narrow axle]

can anyone answer this for me

[narrow axle]

here I'll make it simpler with f strings

[pliant gulch]

And why is a wall not an attribute??

[narrow axle]

there

[slate swan]

Would it fix this error?

like-

For the import I have to do?

[pliant gulch]

You can have a house with no plumbing sure, you can have a house with no doors, sure. You can have a house with no walls, no roof sure. Then what is a house exactly? The point I’m asking you is. Is a class really a class without state, without dict without name, etc

[narrow axle]

that does not exist

[pliant gulch]

My point being a class is not one thing rather a collection of things

Hence namespace .

[slate swan]

wat?

[narrow axle]

never heard of "default_permissions"

whar are you tryna do

[slate swan]

@client.add_command(guild_ids=GIDS, description='Bye-bye, Messages..')
@commands.cooldown(1,10,commands.BucketType.channel)
@default_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def purge(ctx, amount_to_delete: int = 0):
    if amount_to_delete < 1 or amount_to_delete > 200:
        await ctx.send('You need to enter a value between 1 and 200')
    else:
        await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount_to_delete)
        await ctx.response.send_message(content=f"Sucsessfully purged {amount_to_delete} messages!", ephemeral=True)```

[narrow axle]

???

[slate swan]

exactly, i use __init__() to initialize my object, not for touch-ups lol

[pliant gulch]

Exactly why init is a constructor

[slate swan]

that's kind of what "__init__() is not a constructor" sounds like to me

[pliant gulch]

Same with new

[slate swan]

__new__() exists just to shit on __init__() /s

[wanton fractal]

default_permissions doesn't exist. the error is saying that there is no module to be found in discord.ext

[slate swan]

it can do everything __init__() can and more kek

[wanton fractal]

you would need to import commands like timtoy said

[slate swan]

It was fine like a week ago tho..

[pliant gulch]

And when you subclass builtins if your feeling spicy

[slate swan]

immutable ones

[slate swan]

So wat would this change to?

[pliant gulch]

Yep or the cursed way. Ctypes

[slate swan]

I don't touch that module, it makes no sense to me

I understand C better than the ctypes module

[pliant gulch]

I like touching it, only to say I can

The only thing I use it for it to override built ins

[slate swan]

Like wtf is ctypes.py_object

why does it exist and what does it do

[pliant gulch]

Make pointers

[slate swan]

ctypes is just a wrapper around c for a language built with c. nice.

[narrow axle]

from discord import app_commands
tree = client.tree

@tree.command(guild_ids=GIDS, description='Bye-bye, Messages..')
@app_commands.cooldown(1,10,commands.BucketType.channel)
@app_commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
@app_commands.describe(
  amount_to_delete = "The amount of messages to purge"
)
async def purge(interaction:discord.Interaction, amount_to_delete: int = 0):
    if amount_to_delete < 1 or amount_to_delete > 200:
        await interaction.response.send_message('You need to enter a value between 1 and 200')
    else:
        await interaction.channel.purge(limit=amount_to_delete)
        await interaction.response.send_message(content=f"Sucsessfully purged {amount_to_delete} messages!", ephemeral=True)

[pliant gulch]

Say that to the language I made in python to transpile into python bytecode

[slate swan]

hold on my brain is hurting

[pliant gulch]

I know ironic

[slate swan]

I have other commands too

[slate swan]

there's more of that coming

(trust me)

[wanton fractal]

it'll suck

[slate swan]

:(

and it's going to be in waves

[wanton fractal]

but you'll get the hang of it

[slate swan]

unforgiving and disorienting

[wanton fractal]

absolutely hammering

[slate swan]

yeah you'll get the hang of being completely disoriented and astonished with (usually your terrible) code

i still write terrible code and i've been doing this for long enough

AAA it was just working a week ago

[primal token]

Ok so let me give an example on my view of my point

class House:
    ...

This is a declaration of the class object House this is the blueprint, while __new__ is like the employees that create the base stucture like walls and the floor and roof etc, while __init__ is like the architect that creates the design of the actual house like its inside stucture and/or the mapping of the rooms which would be the names set to that unique home/instance that point to something like a variable that may contain a container type.

[primal token]

How is that project doing, did you fix your compiling issue(s)?

[pliant gulch]

Okay so answer this for me, is a wall a house?

Is a floor a house?

Is a roof a house?

Also using your logic, that means the employees create the foundation, the walls etc before an architect even designs them. Devastating

[slate swan]

why is so much wrong w/ my coddee

[pliant gulch]

Let's say I have a "house" with 4 walls, 1 in each direction. What is the wall to the west? Is it a house, no. Is it a wall? Yes. Then what about all the walls in total, are they are house? Sure. My point being here, a wall is not a house but a house is a wall(s) (sounds weird but if you think about it long enough). I'm using this analogy also for classes, you have a class yes py class House: ... so then, let's break this down. py House.__name__ # A name, but not a house House.__mro__ # The bases, but not a house House.__dict__ # The namespace, but not a house So then, what happens if you just do ```py
House

[wanton fractal]

so do i, i feel horrible with my output sometimes

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

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

[slate swan]

a

[slate swan]

This is my code but it gives this error

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ugevivepiq

[wanton fractal]

well i checked it out

what error is being thrown

[slate swan]

This one

[sick birch]

add_command is not a decorator

Maybe you're looking for @client.command()?

[wanton fractal]

well it says that there's an unexpected argument called "guild_ids"

[slate swan]

But I needed that last week-

[sick birch]

..do you still need it?

[slate swan]

I dunno

[robust fulcrum]

url = "https://discord.com/api/v8//users/@me/channels"

Guys i am send dm through api using requests
Where do I need to pass it user id?

[sick birch]

Are you trying to make a slash command or a text command?
From guild_ids I can infer you're making a slash command
From @client.command() I can infer you're making a text commands

[robust fulcrum]

Pls help anyone

[sick birch]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#create-message

[pliant gulch]

That is completely the wrong endpoint to be using for DMs

And in fact, that would only make "sense" if you were self-botting

Thinking to DM users in your DMs

[robust fulcrum]

Are you saying this to me?

[pliant gulch]

Yes

[robust fulcrum]

I am not self botting and I'll use this api in my website to make a contact page

[robust fulcrum]

Bro this for sending message to channel not to dm a user

[sick birch]

"Post a message to a guild text or DM channel" - the docs

[pliant gulch]

Wait no ignore this

I am totally wrong lmao

[sick birch]

Were you talking to me?

[pliant gulch]

No my own message

[primal token]

That was my fault, let me re word it, The architect would be the person creating the class object, so the blueprint, while the __new__ creates its base structure, which yes, __new__ can make other things as you said, its not always the base structure for a building and then the __init__ method would "hire" the plumbers and electricians that come and make it a functional building and then since you planned out attributes, rooms and other designs, __init__ would hire other employees and to set attributes to that just created building/instance, making it a building/instance with attributes, building as in structure that may have offices/attributes etc

[pliant gulch]

I said that @me/channels was wrong but that creates the DM channel object

It's been a while since I touched DAPI

[sick birch]

I believe https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#create-message is the right endpoint, however

@robust fulcrum you'd just use a user's ID instead of a channel id in https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#create-message

[pliant gulch]

You are not understanding my point

[primal token]

I did, im reading your other message currently

[pliant gulch]

Okay one last analogy then let's switch the perspective into something less abstract than houses okay?

[robust fulcrum]

Oh k thanks for help 😃

[pliant gulch]

Is a wall, a house?

Okay now let's talk OOP

OOP consists of a few key points, polymorphism, encapsulation to name a few

Now, let's say we have a "class" but it has no __mro__, tell me, is polymorphism still possible?

Now lets say we have no methods, no setters, no attributes, is encapsulation still possible?

Is this truly what a class is, considering OOP principles?

I don't really see the point in saying any more, just know my key point here is, __init__ is a constructor, because: It sets attributes, basically the state of the instance being created, and without that you have lost most of the OOP principles

Attributes are very important here, you have no class without attributes really

You can argue all you want and say, okay well __new__ allocates memory for the class, but then if you really go to that level, the class is really no longer a class in OOP but rather just allocated heap memory

[primal token]

Ok so i got your point but i'm still confused on, how you said:

__init__ is a constructor, because: It sets attributes, basically the state of the instance being created

Doesnt a constructor create an instance? over __init__ setting it to an already created one? I would say thats my main point

[pliant gulch]

I would just like to make it clear I am not discrediting __new__. Also my point being again if you read my last clause, okay let's construct an instance, now we have heap memory great what now?

You have to use __new__ and __init__ together by design

But you're missing a lot without __init__ so thats enough for me to call it a constructor

[slate swan]

here’s a better one: the type is the blueprint for the house. __new__() is the plotting, allocated materials, and building the structure/skeleton for the house. __init__() is installing features like plumbing and wiring into the house and the other internal decorations/furniture.

(i can’t type in on a phone lol give me a break)

[slate swan]

aligns with this

[slate swan]

and this

and please not the house analogy, it’s been going on for too long lol

this madness has been going on for 1.5 hrs

stahp

[pliant gulch]

I've had enough of programming talk for a night lol

I'm ready to put this to a close

[primal token]

I understand your point:

What is an instance without its attributes?
Is your point?

I'm not saying __init__ doesnt help with encapsulation, but i wouldnt refer to it as a constructor because it specifically doesnt create the instance but it does encapsulation and sets namespaces etc, yes.

[primal token]

I'm waiting for fiona to hit so i my electricity can go poof gone

😔

[slate swan]

init and new are constructors bruh

[primal token]

fight me👊

[slate swan]

they are both constructors

[pliant gulch]

I'm not arguing towards the __init__ specifically, rather closer to the abstraction of setting state

Without state you have no OOP, therefor you have no class

[slate swan]

especially if you’ve used languages where the constructor itself doesn’t handle the creation of the object

[pliant gulch]

C be like ```py
malloc(sizeof Struct FOO)

[slate swan]

python simply gives you more control over that process

[pliant gulch]

😩

[slate swan]

which is why new exists

[pliant gulch]

C

unless you were responding too yourself

In which case I am sorry kek

[slate swan]

init and new are both constructors, end of discussion i think

[pliant gulch]

Yes

[primal token]

You got me their, now i go sleep

Anyways thanks for the discussion

[slender scarab]

how to edit another user's message in discord.py?

[sick birch]

You can't

[slender scarab]

manually, that can be done, right?

[sick birch]

Nope

[slender scarab]

that's weird

i distinctly remember that can be done

[sick birch]

You've never been able to edit other user's message, manually or via bot

[slender scarab]

mandela effect?

[sick birch]

Probably :P

[slender scarab]

how is a timeout removed though

[vale wing]

Imagine what kind of hell would happen if everyone was able to edit anyone's message — clowns and selfbots would start to edit all the messages to like "I have an attraction to cheese"; such ability makes no sense

[slender scarab]

i just wanna edit spam messages

[vale wing]

Why not just delete them

[vale wing]

You can resend edited message with bot and put the author of original message to somewhere

That's what I did for my word filter, for example if someone says "this fricking thing is stupid" and "stupid" and "frick" are blacklisted, it will resend author's message like "this #####ing thing is ######"

[slate swan]

webhooks?

[wanton fractal]

what do you mean

like edit other peoples messages?

if so, that fortunately cannot be done

[wanton fractal]

people would be erratic like this person also said^

[brazen stag]

Can anyone could help me with some errors?

Well i have a similar error with it Exception ignored in: <function _ProactorBasePipeTransport.__del__ at 0x0000017DFFA45F30> Got this message after intents = discord.Intents.all()

[vale wing]

You can interaction.followup.send only after interaction.response.send iirc

[vale wing]

This is not similar at all, could you show the full code

[brazen stag]

ok.

[vale wing]

This isn't the full code

And the problem is not in intents

[brazen stag]

It is,

[vale wing]

Do you use a database

[naive briar]

[naive briar]

I don't think so

[brazen stag]

This is the error.

[vale wing]

Nah instead of interaction.followup.send do interaction.response.send

[vale wing]

Once again, do you use a database?

[brazen stag]

What's a database?

[vale wing]

Seems like you don't

This error commonly occurs if you have unclosed connections when shutting down the bot

[vale wing]

But this code is definitely not a full one because the bot doesn't even get run here

[brazen stag]

It is a full code, only to make the bot online.

[slate swan]

is that all the error you get? please send the full traceback

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[naive briar]

Put the interaction.response.defer at the top of the command

[slate swan]

or, edit_response if it was deferred

[naive briar]

And use interaction.followup.send to respond

[brazen stag]

Yes.

[naive briar]

Yup 🫠

[slate swan]

whats ur dpy version and are you connected to internet?

[brazen stag]

Wait,

[brazen stag]

2.0.1, Yes in 5G

[slate swan]

enable all the intents from your bot's dev page

and reset your token because it appears in the error above

[brazen stag]

ok

Worked, ty.

that command is not working, im not getting any errors but bot does not respond with anything, can somebody help me please?

[native reef]

whtas problem ?

[glad cradle]

add an else statement in the @cf.error and print out error

[slate swan]

you have the external asyncio lib that was for python versions when it didn't even have the async and await keywords, that is what's causing the issue

[native reef]

I did not get

[hasty bison]

 await ctx.send(" **You do not have the required permissions to use this command.**")``` How can i mention the author of the command?

[slate swan]

ctx.author.mention

[gusty shard]

it says
Command raised an exception: TypeError: '<' not supported between instancesof 'type' and 'int' how can i fix it?

(sorry for ping)

thats what cash looks like

isnt it int too?

[slate swan]

typehint sayi with int

[gusty shard]

sayi=int

its already an int isnt it

[slate swan]

typehint

[gusty shard]

what is that

[slate swan]

hinting types

sayi is literally an int class holder

!e

def uwu(_=int):
  print(_)

uwu()

[unkempt canyon]

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

<class 'int'>

[gusty shard]

data[id]['cash'] < int(sayi)

[slate swan]

!typehint

[unkempt canyon]

Type Hints

A type hint indicates what type a variable is expected to be.

def add(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    return a + b

The type hints indicate that for our add function the parameters a and b should be integers, and the function should return an integer when called.

It's important to note these are just hints and are not enforced at runtime.

add("hello ", "world")

The above code won't error even though it doesn't follow the function's type hints; the two strings will be concatenated as normal.

Third party tools like mypy can validate your code to ensure it is type hinted correctly. This can help you identify potentially buggy code, for example it would error on the second example as our add function is not intended to concatenate strings.

mypy's documentation contains useful information on type hinting, and for more information check out this documentation page.

[slate swan]

sayi: int
and not sayi=int

sayi=int will assign a default value to it

[gusty shard]

oh

[slate swan]

typehinting is a must to learn because even dpy expects typehints to parse arguments into specific objects

for example

@bot.command()
async def uwu(ctx: commands.Context, member: discord.Member):
  ...

where dpy will convert member to Member if applicable, if member was not typehinted with Member, member would have been an str

[gusty shard]

so what should i do now

[slate swan]

guys I need help

I did async def topic and wrote a massive list of responses

how do I make it send a random sentence from that list?

who's the best girl in naruto?

[gusty shard]

whats the problem

[slate swan]

remove the asterisk after ctx in the parameter definition, that's the error

[gusty shard]

dang

[slate swan]

remove it from async def topic, right?

[slate swan]

yes

alr

I did but still crash

@slate swan

[slate swan]

why print bro, I need it to send in discord

I edited it to this

async def topic():
    responses = ["What songs do you like?", "What is your favorite movie/film/series?", "What was the most embarrassing thing you have ever done?", "What's one thing that can instantly make your day better?", "What's the best joke you've ever heard?", "What's the phone app you use most?", "What was the craziest thing you have ever done?", " Is there one job you’d never ever do?", "Do you play any games?", "What time do you sleep?", "What do you like the most about naruto?", "who's the best girl in naruto?", "What is your favorite character in naruto?", "What is your favorite Ninjutsu?", "What is your favorite Dojutsu?", "What was the funniest thing in naruto?", "Do you like boruto?", "Do you like any animals?", "What's the most expensive thing you have bought?", "What's the cheapest thing you have bought?"]
     await message.send(random.choice(responses))```

[gusty shard]

just change print into ctx.send

or message.send

[slate swan]

where did message tp from

[slate swan]

u said to remove ctx

[gusty shard]

[slate swan]

when did I...

[slate swan]

..

[gusty shard]

remove the *

[slate swan]

I removed that already

remove the asterisk after ctx in the parameter definition

[slate swan]

I did that but it still showed an error

[gusty shard]

async def topic(ctx):

[slate swan]

^

[slate swan]

we very much can't help without errors

async def topic(ctx):
    responses = ["What songs do you like?", "What is your favorite movie/film/series?", "What was the most embarrassing thing you have ever done?", "What's one thing that can instantly make your day better?", "What's the best joke you've ever heard?", "What's the phone app you use most?", "What was the craziest thing you have ever done?", " Is there one job you’d never ever do?", "Do you play any games?", "What time do you sleep?", "What do you like the most about naruto?", "who's the best girl in naruto?", "What is your favorite character in naruto?", "What is your favorite Ninjutsu?", "What is your favorite Dojutsu?", "What was the funniest thing in naruto?", "Do you like boruto?", "Do you like any animals?", "What's the most expensive thing you have bought?", "What's the cheapest thing you have bought?"]
     await ctx.send(random.choice(responses))```

so like this

[gusty shard]

yea

[slate swan]

yes that will work

Aborting automatic restart, last crash occurred less than 60 seconds ago.

still crashed

error.

there is no error tho, I'm on daki.cc

why don't you debug and then deploy apps

[gusty shard]

can you make sure this line is correct

[slate swan]

@bot.command 😔

imagine defining static variables inside commands

[slate swan]

yeah

[gusty shard]

[slate swan]

ehm wat?

[gusty shard]

change bot.command into @bot.command

[slate swan]

OH YES

IM SO DUMB

that shouldn't cause a crash though

yeah

unless the servers are quite shit

lets see now

OK DIDNT CAUSE A CRASH

nextcord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "topic" is not found

it shows this tho why, @slate swan

code

@bot.command
async def topic(ctx):
responses = ["What songs do you like?", "What is your favorite movie/film/series?", "What was the most embarrassing thing you have ever done?", "What's one thing that can instantly make your day better?", "What's the best joke you've ever heard?", "What's the phone app you use most?", "What was the craziest thing you have ever done?", " Is there one job you’d never ever do?", "Do you play any games?", "What time do you sleep?", "What do you like the most about naruto?", "who's the best girl in naruto?", "What is your favorite character in naruto?", "What is your favorite Ninjutsu?", "What is your favorite Dojutsu?", "What was the funniest thing in naruto?", "Do you like boruto?", "Do you like any animals?", "What's the most expensive thing you have bought?", "What's the cheapest thing you have bought?"]
await ctx.send(random.choice(responses))

you're missing () after command, and bad indentation for the await ctx.send

I don't even want to comment at this point

works!!

thanks a lot! @slate swan and @slate swan

[gusty shard]

[feral frost]

guys

anyone knows how to make an is_owner command in slash bot ?

[native reef]

Help

[feral frost]

code?

[native reef]

me ?

[feral frost]

yes

[native reef]

code is currect

[feral frost]

you sure ?

[native reef]

yes bro

send code again ?

[feral frost]

yes

[native reef]

i have token but not coded in vs

[feral frost]

ye its not safe if you put it in here

[native reef]

yes bro

[feral frost]

and the error was this ?

[native reef]

this is eror

[native reef]

bro your python version ?

[feral frost]

ok well smth wrong with importing discord

try uninstalling it and reinstalling

[feral frost]

?

[tidal hawk]

npc talk

[feral frost]

ok

[native reef]

whats your python version

[feral frost]

why do you want to know ?

its prob the latest

idk

[tidal hawk]

And you want the slash command to be seen only by owner?

[feral frost]

yes and run only by owner

[tidal hawk]

well i'm not sure if you can hide the command from others, but you can do a check inside slash command

[feral frost]

for text commands it is @commands.is_owner() can it be that simple in slash commands ?

ok

[tidal hawk]

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/stable/ext/commands/slash_commands.html#default-member-permissions

[feral frost]

ow

[tidal hawk]

There's some stuff there regarding the permissions

[feral frost]

ok thanks

[tidal hawk]

But you can always do a is_owner check inside the command

[feral frost]

ye

i thought it was possible to hide it for others

guess not

[slate swan]

you can hide it from everyone but not server owners & admins

[feral frost]

k

[slate swan]

guys I want to code an op economy bot, anyone wants to help?

[gusty shard]

its not that easy

you should improve your python skills first

[slate swan]

ik I want to code an economy bot that has everything in it, and for example naruto question games that give money

[tidal hawk]

What are you going to use as database?

[slate swan]

idk

btw should I learn js?

or stick with python

[tidal hawk]

Depends what do you want to do in the future

[slate swan]

I just want to create economy bot for my server

naruto economy bot

[tidal hawk]

I'd use Python for that

[slate swan]

can u help me to make it?

[gusty shard]

no one will write code for your bot

[slate swan]

no I mean help

[gusty shard]

code as much as you can and come here when you get stuck

[slate swan]

or wait

I got another idea

[native reef]

Whats Wrong ?

[gusty shard]

are you still getting this error?

[glad cradle]

why you're calling a Bot instance Client 😩😩😩😩

and what's the error that you're getting

[native reef]

yes

[gusty shard]

did you install discord?

[native reef]

yes

[slender stirrup]

how can i log timeout event

i need to get time and reason

[native reef]

wy ?

[quick brook]

Coding an economy system is not an easy task. Currently still making one and it's taken me at the very least like 3-6 months to get the codebase to where I kinda want it

[slate swan]

log timeout?

[quick brook]

If u are gonna learn and use djs, u will also need to learn node.js. which is just pure magic for me despite me knowing js/ts

[slender stirrup]

when user timed out

[slate swan]

it's really easy though

[quick brook]

hm how easy ?

[slate swan]

like medium level?

[quick brook]

it is mostly straight forward and easy to figure out. But it takes a ton of code and a ton of time to write

[thorn seal]

what is a good and cheap hosting service?

[slate swan]

check the pins in #965291480992321536

wtf

[slate swan]

I usually make helper functions for interacting with a db ¯_(ツ)_/¯

nice, ash

lmao why'd you see that

[quick brook]

I usually just write like a whole entire separate utils lib that deals with db transactions. also probably should use redis for caching on my economy bot

[slate swan]

make an API instead

[quick brook]

the codebase for it is like 3-5K lines of code and probably would take more time to make a rest api instead

[slate swan]

by api i mean a simple local interface, not a web tool

[quick brook]

ah ok

[tidal hawk]

Dayumm, what kind of features does your economy system have?

[slate swan]

but still 3-6 months seem excessive if you got experience with python ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tidal hawk]

Mhm

[slate swan]

not when ur out of ideas

lmao

[brazen stag]

I got a yellow line beneath the client, how can I fix? async def my_background_task(): await client.wait_until_ready() channel = discord.Object(id='992654876989460484') while not client.is_closed: await client.send_message(channel, "Task") await asyncio.sleep(5)

[slate swan]

i can see 3 clients there, which one are you talking about

[brazen stag]

All

Should i do pip install?

[slate swan]

is "client" variable defined above that function?

wtf no why would u pip install it

[brazen stag]

its not defined

[slate swan]

how did you get that code then?

client there should be ur discord.Client or commands.Bot object

[wanton fractal]

do you mean client.is_closed or client.send_message

[slate swan]

client.send_message is not a thing anylonger tho

totally stackoverflowed code

[limber bison]

how can i fix this ? any right approch ? me new
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/559455534965850142/1021018765254742056/unknown.png

[wanton fractal]

need an explanation of what's going on so we can help

[slate swan]

you can't use decorator inside the range like that, its useless there

instead, create button classes inside the loop

how would i check

say like a string is 5e712ecf-2fbb-4f37-a462-155917378803 , how would i check how many "-" are in said string

[limber bison]

? like any 2 3 code line how can i start ?

[wanton fractal]

well i would use .split() and just get the length of a list

[limber bison]

me blank

[wanton fractal]

see how many strings are separated using .split("-")

[slate swan]

!e ```py
print("ajak-kakaka-kka-lalal---".find("-"))

[unkempt canyon]

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

4

[wanton fractal]

well yes then you ave that too

[slate swan]

thanks!

but i want the bot the bot to say its invalid when are three or less -

wait actual you need the number of occurrences

you should use badboom's method

[wanton fractal]

thank you sarth

[slate swan]

or count function exists too

[wanton fractal]

probs count

[wanton fractal]

well you can always use regexes for it

[slate swan]

how?

[wanton fractal]

but they're a pain in the ass ic so you would want to check how many there are

[limber bison]

hmm

for i in range(x)
class myview(view)
....

like this ?

then how can i call loop ?

[wanton fractal]

so my idea around going about it would be ```py
whatever = "fufu-f-e-fefe--fe".split("-")

if len(whatever) <= 3:
... # you can figure out the rest

[slate swan]

!e print("yes" if "text with ---".count("-") > 3 else "invalid") #something like this

[unkempt canyon]

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

invalid

[wanton fractal]

yes or use a ternary operator

[toxic bluff]

intents.typing = False
intents.presences = False
intents.message_content = True

client = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix="!",
    help_command= None,
    intetns= intents,
    sync_commands_debug= True
)```Why do I still get this warning: *MessageContentPrefixWarning: Message Content intent is not enabled and a prefix is configured* I also can't use the Prefix Commands on discord servers anymore, only in DM channels they're still working. I'am using disnake version 2.5.2 I also set the Privileged Gateway Intents in the discord developer Portal

[wanton fractal]

use sarths method it is more line-saving

[wanton fractal]

.all() should already define each intent

[slate swan]

buttons = []
for emoji in list:
   buttons.append(discord.ui.Button(args....))

[wanton fractal]

there would be no need to define every other intent again

[wanton fractal]

intents is spelled incorrectly too

[slate swan]

no list comp 😔

[slate swan]

well don't use that library, rewrite ur code in discord.py 2.0

[slate swan]

they need to set a callback to each of them as well so i didn't do that

[edgy tundra]

Ok

[limber bison]

how can i dscribe there intraction then ?

[glad cradle]

to use a command prefix you need the message content intent, the Bot need access to the messages content to check if a message start with your custom prefix

[slate swan]

ah

[wanton fractal]

he also said it only worked in dm channels

maybe something to do with the command's checker aswell

[glad cradle]

obv, in dm channel you don't need message content intent, it's a private channel between a user and the Bot

[toxic bluff]

I thought I already have the message_content intent by disnake.Intents.all

[wanton fractal]

yes

.all() will enable every single one

[toxic bluff]

but it's not working

[wanton fractal]

would you do me a favor and show me your code real quick

[toxic bluff]

with all intents enabled

[wanton fractal]

like the entire file without the token

[toxic bluff]

Can I send the code in this channel?

[wanton fractal]

yes

[glad cradle]

!d disnake.Intents.all

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Intents.all

classmethod all()```
A factory method that creates a [`Intents`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Intents "disnake.Intents") with everything enabled.

this will work for buttons callback to ?

[wanton fractal]

a slash command or just a regular command

@toxic bluff

[glad cradle]

there's a spelling error on commands.Bot

[slate swan]

its intents, not inents... or whatever you wrote
so the intents are not actually getting registered

[toxic bluff]

for example the !help command is not working

[wanton fractal]

well

like me and sarth said intents is spelt differently

it wouldnt be intetns

[toxic bluff]

okay haha

[wanton fractal]

it would be intents=

[edgy tundra]

I can't
Can you tell me what to do

[wanton fractal]

if issues still persist come back here and i'll try to help

[toxic bluff]

Okay thank you its working now 🙂

[limber bison]

how can h create buttons in loop and also define callback for each ?

[wanton fractal]

glad we could help!

[slate swan]

the callback has to be same for all?

[slate swan]

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

[wanton fractal]

using this tutorial

or send me the file in dms and i'll try to help you

[limber bison]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cogizojaco

this is my code

help if u can

[wanton fractal]

you have two poll classes defined

oh

thats an update, okay

[limber bison]

this a 4 ppl poll but i want to make it dynamic sooo

pls

how i start ?

[wanton fractal]

i don't really work with interactions/slash commands you should ask snipy or sarth as they have more knowledge

[glad cradle]

to add a callback to buttons of a list it should be

buttons_list = [buttonObj1, ...]
for i in button_list:
    i.callback = your_function

idk if that works properly but you can try it, if there's an error we'll fix it later

[wanton fractal]

was he just trying to add callback buttons to a list?

if so what you can do is you can just use snipy's method

[glad cradle]

from what I 've understood yes

[wanton fractal]

yeah i was a bit confused

okay were you trying to loop over buttons and store them in a list? @limber bison

[limber bison]

yes , like i want n number of buttons in message and all have similer callback , so for n i loop in range n and create that buttons

[wanton fractal]

use snipy's method then

[limber bison]

trying

[limber bison]

hmm hmm thanks

[glad cradle]

btw there's a limit on how much buttons you can have

[limber bison]

25 !

🤔

[wanton fractal]

i defo need to learn how to use buttons and interactions

but what you could do is

you could just loop over the list of buttons

[glad cradle]

yes

it's 5 buttons per Action Row, you can have a maximum of 5 Action Row per message

so it's 0 <= n <= 25

[limber bison]

got it

[slate swan]

and a select menu counts as 5 buttons

[edgy tundra]

i stuck here

[slate swan]

Don't use repl

[cosmic anvil]

So if I don’t need to read/react to a channel, but only to send text into a channel from time to time, I don’t need a bot? Just some code to make a post to some discord url? If so, can someone point me to examples in python please?

[glad cradle]

you could use webhooks

[slate swan]

you would need a bot but not the gateway

[cosmic anvil]

Somehow I thought I heard otherwise. Thanks.

[slate swan]

you just need a webhook and the rest api tbf

[cosmic anvil]

Aha! Any examples out there?

[unkempt bone]

        e = await ctx.respond(embed=discord.Embed(description="**Checking the API**",color=0x81fe8f))

Bc your not suppose to update how e is defined

[unkempt bone]

        e = await ctx.respond(embed=discord.Embed(description="**Checking the API**",color=0x81fe8f))
        await message.e.delete()
``` ik im very bad to python but i really need help because im fighting with this shit for like ~2 days

[unkempt bone]

still doesn't work 😢

[slate swan]

Bro no offence but, you have to be doing this on purpose

[unkempt bone]

i don't ...

[unkempt bone]

im very bad at python

[slate swan]

You need message in .delete()

[unkempt bone]

????

[slate swan]

        message = await ctx.respond(embed=discord.Embed(description="**Checking the API**",color=0x81fe8f))
        await message.delete()

[unkempt bone]

lemme test

  File "C:\Users\i\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\bot.py", line 1009, in invoke_application_command
    await ctx.command.invoke(ctx)

    raise ApplicationCommandInvokeError(exc) from exc
discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Interaction' object has no attribute 'delete'

[glad cradle]

it's not commands.Context, he's using ctx for interaction

[shrewd apex]

is it some other api wrapper not dpy

i don't think interaction has a respond either

[glad cradle]

maybe it's disnake

[unkempt bone]

no

[shrewd apex]

u can just use m = interaction.response.send_message()

[shrewd apex]

then m.delete()

[unkempt bone]

thanks!

[shrewd apex]

f whats discord.Bot?

[glad cradle]

sus

[unkempt bone]

its needed for my bot

[shrewd apex]

#discord-bots message

use this

[glad cradle]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, *, help_command=<default-help-command>, tree_cls=<class 'discord.app_commands.tree.CommandTree'>, description=None, intents, **options)```
Represents a Discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin") to provide the functionality to manage commands.

Unlike [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client"), this class does not require manually setting a [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree "discord.app_commands.CommandTree") and is automatically set upon instantiating the class.

async with x Asynchronously initialises the bot and automatically cleans up.

New in version 2.0.

[shrewd apex]

its discord.Client -_-

and all its subclasses

[unkempt bone]

discord.Client doesn't work for my code

only discord.Bot

[shrewd apex]

🙏

then u are not using discord.py

[glad cradle]

wth

[shrewd apex]

?

[glad cradle]

he's using discord.Bot and it's not a thing on discord.py, or am I wrong?

[shrewd apex]

nope its not a thing

[unkempt bone]

look

its not working

[shrewd apex]

u are not using dpy even

[unkempt bone]

with discord.Client

[shrewd apex]

bruh

discord.Client has nothing to do with this

thats just declaring a bot instance

its the command thats problematic ie u are not responding to the interaction

i suggest u learn some python before attempting advanced projects such as discord bots

[unkempt bone]

i just asked for delete message not dpy or anything like that

😢

[shrewd apex]

anyways just use this it teaches how to make slash commands

[shrewd apex]

its like asking someone to teach u calculus when u don't know basics of maths it just doesn't happen even if we wrote it down for u u will only be copy pasting

[limber bison]

how can i accsess this leng in for loop

[shrewd apex]

that code wont even get executed as u want it to

its better to put it in a function and acess it using the class instance

[short silo]

How would i check if a message exists only through its ID ?

[shrewd apex]

u want to fetch the message?

[limber bison]

like

def xyz(self)
for in ,,,, ?

this way ?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[short silo]

i read about fetch but what i read was i needed to know the channel it was sent in

[shrewd apex]

in the class

[limber bison]

async needed ?

[shrewd apex]

depends on what u are doing in the function

if u need to use await then make it async

if not just def is enough

[limber bison]

got it boss , and how can i call a asyc fun ?

class instance?

[short silo]

well ?

if it cannot be done with only message id, i should store channel id as well ?

[shrewd apex]

await it thats it

[shrewd apex]

u need channel id also yes

[faint sapphire]

yo, this bot event doesnt allow any other comands to work
discord.py docs dont mention how to integrate it

[shrewd apex]

it does use process_commands()

[faint sapphire]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

hey hey I need help on one thing

I want my bot to send a message from the list but send it at random time

like send it every 2-5 hours

[unkempt bone]

how to tag the user who used a slash command

[slate swan]

how do i make my bot say in terminal logged in as bots name

#bot-commands

nvm i did it

[tidal hawk]

interaction.author.mention

[tidal hawk]

Use tasks and randomize the cooldown

[slate swan]

??

[slate swan]

it's interaction.user for dpy

[tidal hawk]

oh

that's such a messy impl ngl

[wanton fractal]

what do you mean

[shrewd apex]

mhm

[wanton fractal]

hey how did the code go, does it work? @shrewd apex

[shrewd apex]

i think he pinged by mistake 👀

[shrewd apex]

yeah i did a few tweaks it works now

[wanton fractal]

that's good

i don't know the lib you were using very well but it was similar to sqlite3

[shrewd apex]

kek its their in my repo u can take a look

[wanton fractal]

okay sure thing

[shrewd apex]

tell if u have any suggestions its apiprojects

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.

[wanton fractal]

paste it onto there and we can help

well

on_message isnt really necessary if you are registering client.command()

it's only needed if you want to use chain commands

aka if/else chains

client.command() is better to use

@client.command(aliases=['do'])
async def d(ctx):
    embedVar = discord.Embed(title="TESTING AUTOMAION BOT", description="**this is a test embed by magic", color=0x0096FF)
    await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)
``` your code would look like this

you would just need this

not the on_message event

[slate swan]

very true

[wanton fractal]

any errors?

[slate swan]

wait so 1 of them has to go

[wanton fractal]

which would be on_message, yes

[slate swan]

alr ty

[wanton fractal]

let me know if there's any errors

[slate swan]

there isnt

[wanton fractal]

does the command run perfectly?

[slate swan]

yah

[wanton fractal]

glad i could help man!

[slate swan]

@wanton fractal

how do u get the curved F

[wanton fractal]

curved f?

italics

[slate swan]

yah like in ss

[wanton fractal]

italic font, do you want a visual studio font?

question, do you have any eye problems?

[slate swan]

that

[wanton fractal]

yes

the curved f is apart of what i said

would you like a visual studio code theme?

[slate swan]

no im asking is that like something speical in python

[wanton fractal]

oh no no it depends on the theme

[slate swan]

oh alr

[wanton fractal]

if you want that i have one for you

[slate swan]

uwu theme 😳

[wanton fractal]

i like ayu or github

[wanton fractal]

typing.Optional?

or are you importing something else

[short silo]

discord.Option

[wanton fractal]

maybe use from?

[short silo]

indeed, Option doesnt exist, is the issue

[wanton fractal]

hmm well are you trying to do anything specific or?

[short silo]

in almost every slash_command, Option is used, isnt it ?

[wanton fractal]

i have no idea, i don't use slash commands

i'm gonna learn how to implent them tho

[short silo]

i updated the version to fix TextChannel doesnt have news attribute error and now it doesn't exist meanwhile the docs say it does

[shrewd apex]

first check ur version of dpy and if its up to date then use dir to print all methods of the object and see if it exists or not

[short silo]

doesnt

[shrewd apex]

smh use print(dir(object)) and send the ss here

and send the link where it exists in docs

[slate swan]

anyone please help me

how do I make it send message from my list like every 2 hours?

it wont send anything when someone joins

I need my bot to send message from the list every 2 hours

but I don't know how

[short silo]

pycord and just a version thing i guess, fixed by installing diff version so nvm

[slate swan]

anyone can fix?

[honest shoal]

😭

[primal token]

!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]

oh wait

[primal token]

oh and its not a command kek

[slate swan]

yah just realised

[slate swan]

still isnt working lol

[honest shoal]

intents

[slate swan]

i already added them all

[primal token]

Can you show your code?

[slate swan]

everything?

or just the on join?

[honest shoal]

intents and join

[slate swan]

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):

channel = member.guild.system_channel
await channel.send(f"{member.mention} hello welcome to my server")

[primal token]

Your intents are all messy

[slate swan]

how so

[primal token]

remove the value that overwrites the variable

[slate swan]

make it like this?

[primal token]

yes

[slate swan]

lemme try it now

[honest shoal]

Intents.all() is better, reduces no. of lines

[slate swan]

works ty 👏

[slate swan]

like this?

intents = Intents.all()

[honest shoal]

yes

[slate swan]

alr

thinking about that is simpler 💀 im new to py tho sorry for the slowness

[primal token]

Yeah but then he needs to activate the presences intent, which is not really needed and it's a waste of gateway events as the bot doesnt handle them

[honest shoal]

well yes

[slate swan]

it's just a waste of resources to enable unused events

from discord import Intents

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

reduced the number of lines too

[primal token]

But cant you do

discord.Intents(members=True, message_content=True)

?

[slate swan]

yes you can, surely

[primal token]

semi colons😡

[slate swan]

I love js dw

[primal token]

I love C++ so i dont hate semi colons much

[honest shoal]

laughs with HTTP bot

[slate swan]

http and cpp and js are so different

http is literally a protocol

[honest shoal]

what

I'm talking about;
HTTP bots = No intents

[slate swan]

wha-

[ornate sorrel]

Can Anyone help me?

[slate swan]

I don't even wanna discuss that ngl

[primal token]

Hes talking about HTTP interactions only

[slate swan]

don't use external libraries, use discord.py itself

[slate swan]

oh lmao

[primal token]

no?

HTTP is 😎

all protocols should be written in caps lol

[slate swan]

smh, I wanna jump off a building at this point

noid you're annoying for no reason lmao

[primal token]

skill issue

[slate swan]

please anyone

how to make the bot send a message from the list every 2 hours?

[primal token]

Like i said to asher, i correct every single mistake of you because i want you to suceed

Can you someone help me use cryptlex API

I’m confused by it

[slate swan]

@honest shoal

[honest shoal]

not like this

[slate swan]

@honest shoal could you help me rq

[honest shoal]

follow here

[slate swan]

wdym

[honest shoal]

sure

[honest shoal]

channel = bot.get_channel(id)

[slate swan]

oof, I keep forgetting basic stuff

and now shows this await channel.send(random.choice(bot.responses))

[honest shoal]

what is that

[honest shoal]

show code

[slate swan]

I’m trying to use that API to create keys, I am not understanding it

[honest shoal]

sorry, it's not related to this channel

[slate swan]

It is lmao, I need to add it via discord bot

[slate swan]

get_channel is returning None i.e. channel isn't in cache. you can make a getch in this case

channel = bot.get_channel(channel_id) or await bot.fetch_channel(channel_id)

[honest shoal]

it still doesn't make it discord related

[slate swan]

it's not

[slate swan]

wdym

uhh I'm a little dumb today

does anyone know how i can make the bot stauts watch the time

[honest shoal]

you need to make an API call to get that channel

which is done by fetch

[slate swan]

so how do I do that

I'm real tired so plz just tell

[honest shoal]

she posted the code above

[honest shoal]

stauts?

[slate swan]

this one?

[slate swan]

you should be starting the task after the cache is ready

[slate swan]

yeah i want the bot to watch the time

ohh

like this

add bot.wait_until_ready() in the first line of the task loop

[slate swan]

and how do I do that..

[honest shoal]

using tasks.loop

[slate swan]

I haven't coded in a while.. and now trying to add new thing to bot

[slate swan]

just answered above

[slate swan]

is there a docs for it

[honest shoal]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.loop

[slate swan]

    bot.wait_until_ready()
    channel = bot.get_channel(986712676019359835)
    await channel.send(random.choice(bot.responses))```

like this?

yeah, await it tho

and now it shows this

read what it says

you can either use dpy or nextcord

ughhh my brain not working today

just please tell me how I'll gtg after few mins

@slate swan

you sure that the channel id is correct? also you didn't await the bot.wait_until_ready 🗿

[slate swan]

yes I'm sure that id is correct and wdym by I didnt

just please tell me already I'm really hurrying up

ughh why everyone in this server likes to do this.. @slate swan

??????

[slate swan]

noones here to spoonfeed, we can provide help to you but noones going to write code

[slate swan]

just tell me where do I have to put the code

[lament mesa]

do await bot.wait_until_ready()

[slate swan]

whats so confusing with adding an await before a statement???

oh that just say that

ALR WORKS NOW

why didnt u just say so

[slate swan]

?

thanks a lot everyone!
