get_channel attempts to get the channel object from it's internal cache. If it's not in there, it returns None. You can fix it by doing something like this to fetch the channel with an API call if it's not in the cache

answer_channel = interaction.client.get_channel(ac) or await interaction.client.fetch_channel(ac)

• Me, about 20 minutes ago

[white citrus]

I tried fetch channel

[shut tendon]

Fixed! Thank you so much!

[weary flume]

?

[slate swan]

what do you mean exactly by this

[weary flume]

so say

they send like this

a
A
A

if it goes past 3 lines in 1 message

itll delete their message

[slate swan]

hmm not sure. get the message_content and see how its returned. cause i don't know if the message will actually be returned like that if getting from the bot

[wicked atlas]

@weary flume ```py
if message.content.count("\n") > 3:
await mesasge.author.ban("D: D: D: D:")

[weary flume]

ily

[primal token]

mesasge🤔

and reason is a kwarg

[wicked atlas]

Yeah, I excluded that just in case they were one of those people who copy pastes stuff

[primal token]

Or maybe you made an honest mistake

No need to be embarrassed

[wicked atlas]

I mean, the mesage one was

[vague zephyr]

what's the difference between *args and **kwargs

[vital glacier]

How can I store a username change if a member changes their username on discord? (if my bot is in the same guild as them it should store it into a db, but i need a way to detect the username change)

[primal token]

!args-kwargs

[unkempt canyon]

*args and **kwargs

These special parameters allow functions to take arbitrary amounts of positional and keyword arguments. The names args and kwargs are purely convention, and could be named any other valid variable name. The special functionality comes from the single and double asterisks (*). If both are used in a function signature, *args must appear before **kwargs.

Single asterisk
*args will ingest an arbitrary amount of positional arguments, and store it in a tuple. If there are parameters after *args in the parameter list with no default value, they will become required keyword arguments by default.

Double asterisk
**kwargs will ingest an arbitrary amount of keyword arguments, and store it in a dictionary. There can be no additional parameters after **kwargs in the parameter list.

Use cases
• Decorators (see !tags decorators)
• Inheritance (overriding methods)
• Future proofing (in the case of the first two bullet points, if the parameters change, your code won't break)
• Flexibility (writing functions that behave like dict() or print())

See !tags positional-keyword for information about positional and keyword arguments

[primal token]

!positional

[unkempt canyon]

Positional vs. Keyword arguments

Functions can take two different kinds of arguments. A positional argument is just the object itself. A keyword argument is a name assigned to an object.

Example

>>> print('Hello', 'world!', sep=', ')
Hello, world!

The first two strings 'Hello' and world!' are positional arguments.
The sep=', ' is a keyword argument.

Note
A keyword argument can be passed positionally in some cases.

def sum(a, b=1):
    return a + b

sum(1, b=5)
sum(1, 5) # same as above

Somtimes this is forced, in the case of the pow() function.

The reverse is also true:

>>> def foo(a, b):
...     print(a, b)
...
>>> foo(a=1, b=2)
1 2
>>> foo(b=1, a=2)
2 1

More info
• Keyword only arguments
• Positional only arguments
• !tags param-arg (Parameters vs. Arguments)

[primal token]

somtimes,

Note
A keyword argument can be passed positionally in some cases.

def sum(a, b=1):
    return a + b

sum(1, b=5)
sum(1, 5) # same as above

A keyword argument can be passed positionally in some cases

But they're showing a positional argument with a default value🤔

[sick birch]

good catch

actually wait

I think it's just showing you can use kwargs in place of positional arguments

The wording is a bit confusing but the point stands

[primal token]

what?

[slate swan]

Hey!

When trying to run my bot, the bot goes online
But also returns this error

discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 30034): Max number of daily application command creates has been reached (200)

And some of my commands are missing...
How would i fix it

[primal token]

You can only sync your app commands 200/d iirc

[slate swan]

sounds gay

[primal token]

Unnecessary comment that makes no sense

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

any way around it?

[primal token]

Wait a day

[slate swan]

"around it"

ive used multiple applications

[sick birch]

Don't try to workaround rate limits

They're there for a reason and should be respected

[slate swan]

sounds like a girl on there period

[sick birch]

What?

Trying to circumvent ratelimits would probably just get you banned

Well not really a "rate limit"

But a "rate limit" to app commands, if you will

[pliant gulch]

You could've circumvented the whole problem to begin with if you only synced commands when you needed

[primal token]

How does a ratelimit to avoid API abuse have any relation with a females menstruation?

[slate swan]

Can i make it so when someone types the other persons id in chat it adds them into a private channel?

[slate swan]

I'm sorry to bother you, but If I tell you an idea for a bot, would you be able to generalize some instructions on how to do it?

[sick birch]

I might be able to

[slate swan]

So in a channel, if someone sends a message, I create 2 reactions, thumbs up and thumbsdown.

In one week if the thumbs ups don't get to above 5 in a week, they are deleted.

I know how to do the reactions, I'm just not sure how to check how many of a reaction is clicked, and also I'm not able to know if it's been a week or not.

[sick birch]

!d discord.utils.sleep_until

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.sleep\_until

await discord.utils.sleep_until(when, result=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sleep until a specified time.

If the time supplied is in the past this function will yield instantly.

New in version 1.3.

[sick birch]

or asyncio.sleep()

[slate swan]

Okay so like this:

When message is recieved --> Add 2 reactions, await asyncio.sleep(week_in_seconds) # Do check here

This would work?

[sick birch]

Looks good

[slate swan]

Just quick thing, would this halt every single.... would this halt the program, or would it thread? (Would it run asynchronously so they don't interfere)

[rare echo]

asyncio

[sick birch]

It's async, so nothing is blocked

[rare echo]

async :)

[slate swan]

Okay, thank you so much!

[marsh maple]

Been awhile since I messed around with coding. Made a decent bot with discord.py and now trying to rewrite it using nextcord. Anyone know of a nextcord server?

[sick birch]

Why would you want to rewrite it, if you've already got it in discord.py?

[marsh maple]

Because it's been acting up and I thought it might have to do with .py being discontinued

[sick birch]

discord.py is not discontinued

it's strong as ever

[primal token]

It would stop the execution of that async function and then yield to the event loop so the event loop can execute other scheduled tasks for concurrency

[slate swan]

Okay.

[primal token]

give it 6 months

[wary shadow]

from when? Now? maybe tomorrow? 6 months from when it went active again?

[sick birch]

That's to be seen

[primal token]

Interesting to see you here Preocts. From now

[slate swan]

How do I count how many people reacted to a reaction?

[sick birch]

!d discord.Message.reactions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reactions

Reactions to a message. Reactions can be either custom emoji or standard unicode emoji.

[slate swan]

like this? print(message.reactions.count(':thumbsup:'))

[sick birch]

if you wanted to get the first emoji reaction count, it'd just be print(message.reactions[0].count)

[slate swan]

Oh

alright, thank you.

[normal bolt]

GM, is it possible to create an interaction with a spoiler tag? ex: As soon as the member clicks on the spoiler tag and displays the word, the discord bot prints that word in the terminal.

[worn terrace]

Does anyone know, where can I find more about Translator class? - https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#translations

[torn sail]

What want to know about it?

Because I think that’s all there is that’s written down in the docs

[modern pecan]

Hey im very very knew to python can you help me with somthing rq?

[torn sail]

I may be able to. Have to go soon tho

[modern pecan]

its quick

why does every single python file i oopen close

open\

even the ones made by other people

[torn sail]

Wdym by close

Like the open function?

[modern pecan]

like

when i run a file

[torn sail]

So does the code not run?

[modern pecan]

I have no idea it opens the window then closes instantly

[torn sail]

Oh

I’ve got no clue.

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @modern pecan!

It looks like you tried to attach file type(s) that we do not allow (.mkv). We currently allow the following file types: .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .png, .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .webm, .webp, .flac, .m4a, .csv, .json.

Feel free to ask in #community-meta if you think this is a mistake.

[modern pecan]

bruh

see

Like it dosent really show on the video

but a little windows appears

[primal token]

You tried to run a python file with pythons interpreter but the file raised an error and closed

[slate swan]

Hey!

i am trying to make an add currency command for my economy system

Code:
https://hastebin.com/tugejejagi.py

But i want it to return if the user getting the currency isn't authed in settings, how would I do that?

[vocal snow]

Aren't you already doing that? You're returning of the target id is in the json

[slate swan]

i tried, but even though it says that

i am authed and i tried adding stuff to myself it just returned telling me run the ecoclaim command

i think it has something to do with the way the .json file is formatted

Code:

{
    "authed": [
        "295499172994351105",
        "",
        "755155481458114630"
    ]
}

[vocal snow]

So you need to check if it's in data["authed"] not in data

[slate swan]

how owuld i do that

[primal token]

JSON as a db and blockingio😬

[slate swan]

idk its just supposed to be a simple thing

[primal token]

sqlite with a asynchronous driver is quite easy as well and it's good because it's actually intended to store allot of data and commit CRUD operations

[slate swan]

i know...

[primal token]

Then why are you not using a db if you know its advantages?

[slate swan]

cause this is meant to be simple for like 3 people

not anything special

[primal token]

My point still stands

[slate swan]

ok

[rare echo]

doing a lot for 3 people 👀

[slate swan]

yea

idk i have free time

[rare echo]

it would be better to switch before you end up growing it

might turn into a bigger project, might as well start off right

[slate swan]

what i was planning to do

when the bot is finally done and shit

with more that a couple people

[primal token]

If you want a large crowd of people using your bots database i wouldnt recommend sqlite either

[slate swan]

im not that popular lmao

[primal token]

Depends what you define on a "large crowd of people"

[slate swan]

[rare echo]

what do you use/rec?

[primal token]

It would depend on the application

[rare echo]

discord bot ofc

general application

[primal token]

It would still depend on abstractions and usage

[rare echo]

just an overall database say storing a guild and all the info that could apply to the bot being nearly custom

[primal token]

Would depend on how much data you're storing and how you want to store it

[rare echo]

say ~50 guilds, each guild containing around 15 different variables ie id’s or bools for toggles and how storing doesn’t matter

[primal token]

sqlite or mongodb or sqlalchemy are good with an asynchronous driver

Depending on the growth of the data you can go for something like postgresql which is great

[lone sail]

For 50 guilds you'll still be fine with just a json doc. Sqlite is the light weight database option, and is easier to migrate to something like postgres later if you do need to scale

[heavy folio]

json is bad, just use sqlite

[primal token]

If you use something like aiofiles and JSON it wouldnt really be an issue, just quite a hassle, you just would have a few limitations and no basic integrity but can be implemented, if you want a JSON like database you can always use mongodb but sqlite would be recommended as sqlites purpose is being a lightweight SQL based database and since it's based on SQL you can use the query language for other SQL based databases as you stated, postgresql

[lone sail]

My point was that with 50 guilds, it shouldn't matter what you use. It won't bottleneck on it.

unless you plan on writing/reading once every half a second per guild.

And still then... probably not

[primal token]

Well, wouldnt it also depend on how much columns/data you're storing per guild that may cause speed and management related issues?

[lone sail]

They mentioned 15 variables, as long as those aren't huge datasets it wont affect anyything

[north wind]

Hello there - I'm new to Discord bots, and I'm curious about what options I could go for with this challenge-
I need a prewritten string to be posted every week - the prewritten string should vary every week, and not have duplicates until it has run through the whole list. 🙂 Any idea where I shouls start?

[lone sail]

How would you approach it yourself?

I could give you a possible solution out of the bat, but I don't think it would help you solve something similar in the future :)

[north wind]

I'm entirely new to discord bots, not selecting the items :).

[primal token]

Well, they said it theyre weren't going to be large and/or advanced datastructures, so yeah it wouldnt

[lone sail]

So you're good on the getting a new string every week, without showing duplicates?

What library are you using?

[north wind]

I'd probably write a list of strings, and then randomly use an int within range of the indexes to pick one - and then remove the entry from that list, add it to an "used" list, and if the next pick exists in the used one, reselect

I'm totally new to it, so I have no idea what libraries to use for Discord bots 😦

[lone sail]

Seems reasonable

I'd just shuffle the list once, and pop the end entry off until it's empty. But yours should work just as well

I can't say I'm super up to date on the libraries these days, but I know discord.py had tasks.loop which is set to run every x amount of time

I wouldn't trust the "x amount of time" to figure out when to post your string, so storing a datetime it should post and constantly checking if it's past that time is a bit more robust

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/tasks/index.html

[vague zephyr]

i'm pretty sure loops are just while not client.is_closed

so there isn't any amount of time

[north wind]

Okay, now I just need to know how to automate it and do it regularly.

[white citrus]

Is there a free Hosting client ?

[naive briar]

!d discord.Asset.url - get the url from it

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Asset.url

property url```
Returns the underlying URL of the asset.

[slate swan]

i use sqlite all the way up to like 700 guilds and somehow never had an issue.

and i was constantly accessing the db

[meager chasm]

That what he said, they are good when you use it with async driver

[vale wing]

Only if you have a bank card

[tawdry adder]

hello, mornin!
just got a simple question please... is there a way to test things that i cant as the owner? like i want to test as a simple user or something like that if that simple-user can do something i tried blockin and etc.

[gilded gust]

to do things like this i use my alt account

[tawdry adder]

oke

and what about making commands in separated files? for ex. welcome.py , ping.py , cls.py and so on..

???

[slate swan]

Hey!

I have a command thats supposed to set something in sqlite

Code:

Error:
discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Cursor' object has no attribute 'ececute'

But my other command that looks simular if not the same doesnt error

[naive briar]

Pretty sure it's cursor.execute and not cursor.ececute

im dumb

[pulsar solstice]

how to manipulate images like this in discord.py?

[vocal snow]

Pillow

!pypi pillow

[unkempt canyon]

Pillow v9.2.0

Python Imaging Library (Fork)

[pulsar solstice]

I am not able to get the heart overlapping the images in it

[primal token]

#media-processing

[primal token]

You can just copy the original emoji from your client or use the webclient

since it would be a clear png you can use it

Not sure if thats your issue or if it's related to pillow😅

[slate swan]

the heart emoji on discord is not a normal image format picture, its a svg so you won't be using that here

[primal token]

I'm pretty sure you just use inspect element and you can just ge the img from their which I've done before?

[slate swan]

that's still a svg file
and downloading a png image from internet doesn't hurt anyways

[primal token]

Idk but it saved as a png for me i cant really do it right now though

¯_(ツ)_/¯

All i know is i used it for guild emojis a long time ago

[slate swan]

again guild emojis are images, not vectorized web formats

reason why default emojis don't have a url

[primal token]

i know?

[slate swan]

sure.

[primal token]

ok

[pliant gulch]

It is very easy to get PNG versions of any twemoji asset, they are all public on GitHub after all

how to put a user's avatar in the description of a embed

[glad cradle]

as image or as link?

also what lib are you using?

[pulsar solstice]

DISCORD.PY

[pulsar solstice]

LINK

[placid knot]

embed.set_image(url=f"{member.banner.url}")

this isn't working form me

[dull terrace]

Is it because the person you're doing it to has no banner image

[placid knot]

they have

[dull terrace]

What's the error

[placid knot]

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

@dull terrace

[dull terrace]

Dude... It's exactly what I said it was

[dull terrace]

member.banner = None

I'm telling you, it's not there, whether you have the wrong member or something

[placid knot]

he got banner right?

[dull terrace]

And your bot is in a server with the person you're getting None for member.banner?

[placid knot]

yes'

[dull terrace]

Have you tried directly copying their id, fetching the user and then printing banner URL?

Then you can determine if it's something in your code or something probably with permissions

[slate swan]

you need to fetch the user in order to get their banner

!d discord.User.banner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.banner

property banner```
Returns the user’s banner asset, if available.

[rugged shadow]

discord.os?

[dull terrace]

I haven't seen that qualifier for literally any other attribute. Weird.

And why would it only work for one person and not the other with his code

[slate swan]

the users in discord.py's cache are derived from member payloads ( which doesn't have banner key )

or maybe discord.py Just doesn't save that, im unsure

[pulsar solstice]

how to check if a object is a discord.Member object or not

[dull terrace]

Why would you want to do that 8ster?

First way that pops into my head is doing hasattr(object, "username")

[pulsar solstice]

cause I have user2 object and if it's a member object then it must have a #discriminator

[pliant gulch]

isinstance(..., discord.Member)

[pulsar solstice]

okay thanks

[dull terrace]

Yeah is instance is much better, I forgot about that

[pliant gulch]

Your hasattr wouldn't have worked anyways

username doesn't exist in discord.py it's name and since Member inherits fields from it's underlying user it has the same attributes and more

So hasattr(..., "name") would've worked on Member and User

But they aren't the same thing, as member has more than user which isn't exactly ideal

[dull terrace]

[keen dust]

Hi

[meager chasm]

well, that is because andy is very smart in the aspect of developing. so when andy explains something to someone who doesnt have the same knowledge, it may be looked at as confusing because andy is explaining something with the assumption it can be understood as simply as he/she understands the topic. so yeah it creates confusion. thats why you ask more and more. the more you ask the more you know. dont walk away misunderstanding the topic because one explanation didnt give you the knowledge needed. im sure andy would have been willing to break down the explanation.

[keen dust]

is there a way to fetch all the data from a database and display the results in one embed

[dull terrace]

Hmm, I've used isinstance before but yes Andy a smart dude

[glad cradle]

this depends on the database that you are using and whether if you are using a library that handles calls to the database, btw that's not really related with discord Bots

[dull terrace]

I end up doing janky things because I don't think about things for long enough

[keen dust]

no, I got the data, its just displaying the output in one embed rather that multiple embeds, I use aiosqlite btw

[slate swan]

Exception has occurred: TypeError

[keen dust]

try using

intents = discord.Intents.all()
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="$", intents=intents)

if its nextcord

u also have to enable the intent permissions in the discord developer portal for the bot

[slate swan]

hmm

[keen dust]

are u using nextcord or discord.py?

[slate swan]

discord.py

[keen dust]

replace nextcord with discord

[slate swan]

Ok

how are you currently building your embeds?

[shell wing]

        ticket_main_channel = await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(f"{interaction.user.name}'s channel", overwrites=ticket_main_channel_overides)

Says guild has no staff role
how do i define it ??

[primal token]

Why the creation of a reference if its only going to be used twice?

[keen dust]

not really sure it came along with the new update

kinda surprised me too

[primal token]

what

[keen dust]

creating different embeds for each data

[primal token]

Making a reference of Intents and using it twice isnt a part of any update?

[glad cradle]

that's irrilevant, could you share your code, idk where the problem of your current code is

[keen dust]

if I'm correct intents are used to give privileges to the bot

[keen dust]

ye sure

its below

@bot.command()
async def display_bdays(ctx):
    async with aiosqlite.connect("bday.db") as db:
        async with db.cursor() as cursor:
            await cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM bd")
            data = await cursor.fetchall()
            for row in data:
                bdem2 = nextcord.Embed(title="ALL BDAYS", description="blank")
                bdem2.add_field(name="Name:", value=row[1], inline=False)
                bdem2.add_field(name="Month:", value=row[2], inline=False)
                bdem2.add_field(name="Date:", value=row[3], inline=False)
                await ctx.channel.send(embed=bdem2)

the main part

[brazen raft]

As per best practices, you should keep one database connection in the bot

Instead of connecting every time in each command or event or whatever

[glad cradle]

he's saying that there's no reason to create a variable since you're not changing the intent values against the values provided by the classmethod, so you can directly pass the object without creating a variable
like

bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=discord.Intents.all())

[primal token]

That's not my point, my point is you made a reference

intents = discord.Intents.all()

and made its reference count into 1 and then referenced it in your bots constructor __init__ making its reference count into 2, over just passing the value

[keen dust]

oh ye, u can do that too

[maiden fable]

This is a damn nice feature

[glad cradle]

you should have an empty list and append embed objects to that list, then you should pass that list as kwarg embeds=list of a send method

!d nextcord.ext.commands.Context.send

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord.ext.commands.Context.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=None, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, mention_author=None, view=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` or `embeds` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://nextcord.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#nextcord.File "nextcord.File") object.

[maiden fable]

Python bot when nextcord docs requested: Wait, what the fuck is that

[glad cradle]

I have never used nextcord, luckily the structure has not changed

[maiden fable]

Yea, they all use discord.py docs

[slate swan]

import asyncio, websockets, discord
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', intents=discord.Intents.all())

async def handler(websocket, path):
    await websocket.send("hello")
ws = websockets.serve(handler, "localhost", 8000)

@bot.command()
async def crash(ctx):
    print("detected crash command")
    # await ws.send("hello") doesnt work

bot.run("bot token")
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(ws)
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_forever()
```So basically i want to send a message to websocket when a command is fired

[glad cradle]

everything under bot.run is not executed when the bot is online

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.run

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.run

run(token, *, reconnect=True, log_handler=..., log_formatter=..., log_level=..., root_logger=False)```
A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use [`start()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.start "discord.ext.commands.Bot.start") coroutine or [`connect()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.connect "discord.ext.commands.Bot.connect") + [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.login "discord.ext.commands.Bot.login").

This function also sets up the logging library to make it easier for beginners to know what is going on with the library. For more advanced users, this can be disabled by passing `None` to the `log_handler` parameter.

Warning

This function must be the last function to call due to the fact that it is blocking. That means that registration of events or anything being called after this function call will not execute until it returns.

[glad cradle]

Read the warning

[slate swan]

what can i do about that?

[glad cradle]

you should create a main coroutine function and calls inside it await bot.start(...) and the other functions, then you could call the main function with the asyncio module

[slate swan]

ok i will try that.

[robust fulcrum]

Guys is there any UI improvement i should do in my game?

[worn terrace]

Maybe I'm stupid, but I don't know how to make it work. Usage exmaples would be amazing

[pearl fjord]

i have a discord bot, and i'm using sys.exit() to close it because await client.close() takes ages and sometimes just does nothing, how do i stop it from giving the error raise RuntimeError('Event loop is closed') RuntimeError: Event loop is closed
i don't mean like fix the error cuz i know what it is, i just mean catch it and not print the damn error every time

[pulsar solstice]

@bot.command()
async def ship(ctx, user1=None, user2=None):
        if isinstance(user1, discord.Member):```

how to get the user1 name if it's a discord.Member object?

[slate swan]

user1 and user2 will always be a string or None here. never a Member

[pulsar solstice]

I wanna allow the user to input a string or a member object

HELP

HELP

[warm goblet]

How often can I change a bot’s name and picture before it times me out?

[severe rampart]

you shouldn't have to check if they're both Member objects

you should just use a slashcommand tbh

@app_commands.command(name = "ship")
async def _ship(interaction: discord.Interaction, m1: discord.Member, m2: discord.Member) -> None:
  ...

[eternal fox]

Maybe?
user1: discord.Member

[severe rampart]

that way there's no way they could supply a non member argument

[slate swan]

can someone help me with my bot

[pulsar solstice]

then how will I check if it's a member object?

[severe rampart]

there's no need to

[slate swan]

how do i do that the bot will watch the number of members?

[severe rampart]

because it will always be a member object in that case

[severe rampart]

!d discord.Guild.member_count

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.member\_count

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

Warning

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

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

[pulsar solstice]

I wanna allow the user to enter strings too

[severe rampart]

why?

[pulsar solstice]

I wanna get names or member objects

that's why

[severe rampart]

you'll have a list

[slate swan]

tysm,m

[severe rampart]

of essentially every member in the entire guild

so there's no need to enter a string of any kind

[slate swan]

@severe rampart??

[severe rampart]

here's an example @pulsar solstice ^

[severe rampart]

OH

[pulsar solstice]

if the user wants to enter John and the john in not in the server then?

[severe rampart]

no for that you have to loop through all the servers that the bot is in and add the member counts together @slate swan

[slate swan]

nono

the bot is only in one server

[severe rampart]

then you need to fetch that guild object and get the member_count of that guild

[severe rampart]

i don't... how would you ship with someone who is not in the server? what do you mean lol

[pulsar solstice]

bruh pls

I want this feature in my bot

[slate swan]

@tasks.loop(seconds=120)
async def change_status():
        guild = bot.get_guild(246691336776843265) 
        membercount = guild.member_count
        await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.dnd, activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="{} members".format(membercount)))```

[pulsar solstice]

pls

[severe rampart]

YES. that's exactly it!

[slate swan]

yay

thanks

found that in the code i did before a long tim,e finally

tysm

[severe rampart]

yw :)

[slate swan]

why is it not working

[severe rampart]

did you wait 120 seconds?

[slate swan]

um no

i will wate

[slate swan]

use typing.Union[discord.Member, str] for typehinting and then check your isinstance stuff that you were doing earlier

[pulsar solstice]

will discord.Member, str really work?

if yes then that's just common sense!!!

[warm goblet]

Can anyone tell me how often I can change my Bot’s username and picture before timing out?

[slate swan]

@severe rampart waited and still dowsnt work

[slate swan]

typing.Union[discord.Member, str]
yes

[pulsar solstice]

typing is undefined

[slate swan]

import it, its an inbuilt python module...

[severe rampart]

import typing

[pulsar solstice]

oh

[slate swan]

if you're using py3.10 you can do ```py
discord.Member | str

[slate swan]

can someone help with that

bc it doesnt work

[slate swan]

did you start the task?

[slate swan]

wdym

[vocal snow]

That task loop isn't going to start on its own... You need to start it

[slate swan]

by doing py main.py

[vocal snow]

What

[slate swan]

how to start it

[vocal snow]

That's how you run a python script

[slate swan]

yes

py main.py

[vocal snow]

You need to start the task loop in your python code

[slate swan]

how

[vocal snow]

!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop.start

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop.start

start(*args, **kwargs)```
Starts the internal task in the event loop.

[vocal snow]

change_status would be the Loop for you

[slate swan]

where do i put it

@tasks.loop(seconds=120) async def start(*args, **kwargs): guild = bot.get_guild(246691336776843265) membercount = guild.member_count await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.dnd, activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="{} members".format(membercount)))

[vocal snow]

In your code, where you want to start the task

[slate swan]

like this?

[vocal snow]

Ok i give up @slate swan you explain

[slate swan]

no wait

i just started learning

please?

[vocal snow]

Or i am terrible at explaining

[slate swan]

oh

@slate swan@pulsar solstice

[pulsar solstice]

?

I already know this bruh

[slate swan]

can u help me w that

[pulsar solstice]

I am also bad at explaining :\

[slate swan]

oh

but can u like idk

[naive briar]

Let's say this is a loop

@tasks.loop(...)
async def some_loop(*args, **kwargs):
    ...

Now you gotta use start to start the loop in on_ready or setup_hook

some_loop.start()

[pulsar solstice]

I tried helping a kid and ended up writing his whole code that was understandable from him.

[slate swan]

oh

i think i got it

so it would be like that -

@tasks.loop(seconds=120)
async def change_status(*args, **kwargs):
        guild = bot.get_guild(246691336776843265) 
        membercount = guild.member_count
        await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.dnd, activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="{} members".format(membercount)))
        change_status.start()```

@naive briar?

[naive briar]

I'd suggest that you'll have to wait until the bot is ready before starting the loop

[slate swan]

ill see

[slate swan]

off its not working

[naive briar]

You have to start the loop for the loop to work. By putting change_status.start() in the loop will do nothing

[slate swan]

so i dont rlly understand how

[severe rampart]

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
  change_status.start()

perhaps

[slate swan]

ok i will try

[slate swan]

working!

thank u sm.

[severe rampart]

awesome

[slate swan]

can someone help me with verify system

[normal bolt]

GM, Does anyone have any idea how I can make it so that after X time the discord buttons are removed using await button.delete() ?

[keen dust]

nvm I solved the issue myself thanks anyway

[pulsar solstice]

if I put a type hint of string and if the user enters a member then will the member object change into a str

[feral frost]

whats the new avatar_url code ?

[pulsar solstice]

Discord.py literally changes it every freaking week wtf!!!

I am sick of this

[feral frost]

ye same it worked like a few days ago and now it broke

i found it guys

it just like this embed.set_thumbnail(url=user.display_avatar) this is for embed btw

[ocean lantern]

so I made a bot on replit, and it's basically webscraper bot that sends message when it find what it's looking for, and for me it's manga update, and I want it run couple of times every hour, but it only checks it once when I start up the code. How can I change that?

[soft heart]

Is it possible to get the message id of a message when a button attached to the message gets pressed?

[hushed galleon]

the interaction you receive has a .message attribute where you can get the ID there, or alternatively you can store the message as an attribute of your view subclass when you send it (that way you dont have to wait for a button press): py view = MyView() view.message = await ctx.send(..., view=view)

[soft heart]

Ok thank you!

[grand willow]

just .avatar for member

[ocean lantern]

how can I send messages on schedule?

[rare echo]

is there a way to grab a users pfp as a png?

[astral ether]

hello, I watched a video to add a drop-down menu to my bot, but by putting the module imports, it does not work 😦

[slate swan]

doed anyone knows how to install buckettype?

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
       msg = '**Still on cooldown**, please try again in {:.2f}s'.format(error.retry_after)
       await ctx.send(msg)

@bot.command(aliases=["H"])
@commands.cooldown(1,30,commands.BucketType.user)
async def h(ctx, *,message='No Reason ! ❌'):```

it says

also i did

from discord.ext.commands import cooldown, BucketType

[slate swan]

do you have a command named as commands?

[slate swan]

Yes

[pastel basin]

Why does it say Choose wisely.?

This action is irrevocable! Why they are saying it?

Also should I create a application and bot on my main discord account or create an alt account?

[wispy sequoia]

does discord.app_commands.context_menu need the member and message intents? because I wanted to create one but it just doesn't show up

[slate swan]

yeah so you already imported BucketType from commands so you only do BucketType.user

[maiden fable]

Just classic discord humor
You can continue and make the bot

[slate swan]

what lib are you using?

[wispy sequoia]

discord.py 2.0.1

[maiden fable]

They take upto 2 hours to sync. Discord Limitations @wispy sequoia

[wispy sequoia]

I used copy global to

I ofc use a test guild

[maiden fable]

Did u specify the guilds kwarg?

[wispy sequoia]

?

[maiden fable]

R u registering those as global commands?

[slate swan]

Hey guys, is there away to send the modal using a command? All examples I found is that it lets you to click on a button

[wispy sequoia]

yes

[maiden fable]

console.log....?

[wispy sequoia]

rich library

just style stuff, don't worry

[maiden fable]

Registering global commands take upto 2 hours
Registering commands in certain guilds by specifying the guilds kwarg is instant

[wispy sequoia]

it's just a test context menu

[sick birch]

Context menus don’t work inside cogs

[slate swan]

yes tysm!

[wispy sequoia]

crap

stupid discord

[sick birch]

It’s doable though. I had to do it for one of my PRs

Hang on a sec let me find it

python-discord/bot#2269

[lament depot]

GitHub

[bot] #2269 Allow evaling code from context menus

[sick birch]

@wispy sequoia here I had to create a context menu from within a cog

[wispy sequoia]

where is it, I just see the discussion

[sick birch]

Go to the changes files tab

[slate swan]

can someone help me with verify system?

[sick birch]

Right about here

[slate swan]

!d add roles

can someone help me with verify system?

[slate swan]

wtf why?

[wispy sequoia]

dpy giving us a slice of bread and telling us to make a sandwich

[slate swan]

lmfaooooo

this is why i never used dpy lol. so behind on things i get that they left but still.

[glad cradle]

light mode 😭

[slate swan]

does anyone knows why is it like that?

thats the code -

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):

    channel = bot.get_channel(1023615552477995080)

    background = Editor("pic.png")
    profile_image = await load_image_async(str(member.avatar.url))

    profile = Editor(profile_image).resize((150, 150)).circle_image()
    poppins = Font.poppins(size=50, variant="bold")

    poppins_small = Font.poppins(size=20, variant="light")

    background.paste(profile, (325, 90))
    background.ellipse((325, 90), 150, 150, outline="white",stroke_width=5)

    background.text((400, 260), f"Welcome To {member.guild.name}", color="white", font=poppins, align="center")
    background.text((400, 325), f"{member.name}#{member.discriminator}", color="white", font=poppins_small, align="center")

    file = File(fp=background.image_bytes, filename="pic.png")
    await channel.send(f"Hello {member.mention}! Welcome to **{member.guild.name}** Have fun!")
    await channel.send(file=file)```

[sick birch]

Context menus do not support group contexts (e.g. Cog or Group). This is for a few reasons.

- Within Discord itself, they cannot be bound to a group. There is no such thing as a "sub context menu" right now, and if it exists in the future it probably will not be in the same category as a Group would be.
- If added, the Group and the Cog would need to handle and maintain a mapping of context menus to eventually add back and remove from the tree. This complication and extra space doesn't seem worth it to me, especially considering you can only have 5 context menu commands anyway.
- The context menu would have to store bindings (the self parameter) which is an incredibly complicated thing to do that has been a common source of bugs within the library.

This is kind of ironic but this is one of those things that is actually significantly easier to do yourself rather than the library generalising it to fit to everyone's needs. For example, in a cog you can do the following:

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot) -> None:
        self.bot = bot
        self.ctx_menu = app_commands.ContextMenu(
            name='Cool Command Name',
            callback=self.my_cool_context_menu,
        )
        self.bot.tree.add_command(self.ctx_menu)

    async def cog_unload(self) -> None:
        self.bot.tree.remove_command(self.ctx_menu.name, type=self.ctx_menu.type)

    # You can add checks too
    @app_commands.checks.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
    # @app_commads.guilds(12345)
    async def my_cool_context_menu(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, message: discord.Message) -> None:
        await interaction.response.send_message('hello...')

This lets you manually add the context menu to the bot tree when a cog is created. The Python runtime handles the self binding for you as well, rather than the library.

[sick birch]

In this case I think it might be the other libraries making questionable choices. Discord.py's reasoning for this seems logical to me

[sick birch]

Oh, and source: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/7823#issuecomment-1086830458

[bold kernel]

Hi, is it possible to use selenium with discord's api ?

[sick birch]

No, selenium is blocking

[bold kernel]

Other solution to replace it ?

[sick birch]

You could thread it or run on seperate processes

[bold kernel]

asyncio_tothread ?

[sick birch]

Hm?

[slate swan]

like the whole tree thing is just mind boggling to me lol. disnake, its literally just @user_command and @slash_command that's it lol. my opinion the reason for the libraries are to make it easier to use the API ?

[bold kernel]

this

[sick birch]

Sure. Though keep in mind with simplicity and abstraction you trade away some control. So there's that to keep in mind

If you want a more simpler, beginner friendly library, or aren't as good with Python, one of the forks may be of use

If you want more control and your bot may be complex, then discord.py may be the library for you

Just weigh their pros and cons with your usecase, as with most technologies in this field

[slate swan]

true

[primal token]

Discord.py shouldnt be used for a complex application, especially with its history and codebase

[sick birch]

we use it for most of our bots, which are quite complex 😄 especially @unkempt canyon

[primal token]

I already knew you were going to say that, Its complex, yes, The only reason @unkempt canyon doesnt use a private wrapper is because the team probably doesnt want to go through the rewrite and making a wrapper, i'm not saying discord.py is bad abstraction wise, as its codebase isnt the best, while you have large bots like mee6 that use a private wrapper written in python

The things you guys need to do to see whats wrong with an abstraction of the library is probably allot, going from a public method to an internal that has submethods which those submethods have submethods and it keeps going

[livid jacinth]

Hey, does anyone know how to send a message with a discord bot if a minecraft server turns online or offline?

[slate swan]

yes

it is against minecraft eula though i believe well my version is

you would create a minecraft account. you create a bot in javascript or python where it would connect to the minecraft server. if connection is successful it sends a webhook request or a message to a discord bot to send to the server

[sick birch]

just make a plugin with JDA. Bots like that already exist

[edgy plinth]

Hello, im making a bot and i need a way to save into the database (replit) without preventing "heartbeat" from stopping is there anyway i can save data when the bot disconnects from discord or just regualrly?

[sick birch]

would be easier if it wasn't replit

[edgy plinth]

what could i do though?

[sick birch]

use an asynchronous database connector

[edgy plinth]

i tried

[sick birch]

and..?

[edgy plinth]

thats async and await right?

[sick birch]

right

[edgy plinth]

it didnt work

[sick birch]

How exactly did it not work?

[edgy plinth]

i can get it to do it again 1 second

the heartbeat didnt pass though

(shard id)

[sick birch]

How are you monitoring heartbeats? You've got logging enabled?

[edgy plinth]

no but i i got in console that the heartbeat wasnt passing though

[sick birch]

Hm. If it's async, and it still does that, might just be a replit thing

[edgy plinth]

mayve

is there a way to detect when the bot disconnects from discord to save?

[bold kernel]

Even when bot doen't have errors or warnins, is it even possible to find the problem, for example : a for loop who doesn't work as well ?

[sick birch]

on_close maybe?

[edgy plinth]

YES THATS IT THANKS

[sick birch]

If the bot doesn't have errors or warnings you may have a faulty error handler

[bold kernel]

I have a dict who get for (key:channel.id, value:link) and i passed in for loop dict.items() to get some scrapped data and send to the specified channel but if i have two links and also two channels, it works only at starts and after that it loops only for the first key of dict
How to solve this ?

[edgy plinth]

um i cant bring the value into on_close anything i can do?

[sick birch]

you can bind it to your bot instance

[edgy plinth]

how

[old token]

            if role in after.roles:
                print("found role")
                beforeactivity = discord.utils.get(before.activities, type=discord.ActivityType.custom)
                print('1')
                if beforeactivity != afteractivity:
                    if beforeactivity and afteractivity is not None:
                        print('2')
                        if string not in afteractivity.name:
                            print('3')
                            try:
                                print('4')
                                await after.remove_roles(role, reason=f"Removed {string} from status.")
                            except:
                                traceback.print_exc()```

This code works to remove the role when the status is not None but not `string`, but if I completely remove my status, it won't remove the role

[edgy plinth]

found a way made it global.

[sick birch]

bot.<var-name> = <value>

[sick birch]

don't use globals

[slate swan]

making a vanity bot i see

[old token]

yea can't figure it out

it sucks

look at my bio. ill help you haha

make a function that checks the users custom status.

my code is so bad i can't figure it out

[slate swan]

holy lmao

[old token]

I know there is easier ways, but I don't know how

[primal token]

bare excepts

[slate swan]

required_activity = "what to check for here"
for activity in after.activities:
            if isinstance(activity, disnake.CustomActivity):
                if str(required_activity).lower() in str(activity).lower():

[old token]

i need to rewrite all of this wanna help me lmfaooo

[slate swan]

File "application.py", line 18
REDIRECT_URI = f"{DOMAIN}/discordauth"
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[slate swan]

there that's pretty much all you need

[old token]

do you use presence update or member update

[slate swan]

why is this

presence

[old token]

it works to give the role, but not to take it

[slate swan]

make a function with that code return True if they have the required_activity return False if they dont.

then just check if the function is False and the member has the role

and if they do then remove the role

[old token]

that means i have to rewrite it all

            if role in after.roles:
                print("found role")
                beforeactivity = discord.utils.get(before.activities, type=discord.ActivityType.custom)
                print('1')
                if beforeactivity != afteractivity:
                    if beforeactivity and afteractivity is not None:
                        print('2')
                        if string not in afteractivity.name:
                            print('3')
                            try:
                                print('4')
                                await after.remove_roles(role, reason=f"Removed {string} from status.")```

I just want to figure out how to make it remove if there is no status at all

[slate swan]

just check if they have role and if they dont have the activity

thats alot of unnecessary code.

activity = discord.utils.get(after.activities, type=discord.ActivityType.custom)
if str(activity).lower() != string and any(role.id == int(role) for role in after.roles):
    await after.remove_roles(role)

@old token

[old token]

what would activity_check be

[slate swan]

the users activity

ill fix

[old token]

yea idk what this did but it broke everything

no error but it wouldn't even give the role

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

oh nice another disnake user

[tiny ibex]

me?

[slate swan]

yee

[tiny ibex]

I have stopped making discord bots lol

And when I used to they were made without the help of any wrappers

[torn sail]

I think U also need python 3.6+

[slate swan]

he does

[tiny ibex]

Oh yeah

He is on 3.5

@torn sail what's asyncify-python?

[torn sail]

My library

[tiny ibex]

usage?

[torn sail]

Well it was to make it a bit easier to make blocking code non blocking but that got boring so I expanded it to more async related stuff

[tiny ibex]

Ohh

Nicee

[pastel basin]

😑 Oh... I was like why they are asking such things.

[thorny flint]

Why am I getting this when it reach await collection.find_one(find)

[slate swan]

fix

[rugged shadow]

you sent a screenshot of an internal server error captioned with "fix"

do you really expect someone to know how 😭

[slate swan]

how do i paste large amount of code

!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.

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/eyamazudod

[slate swan]

@rugged shadow here is the traceback

[rugged shadow]

bruhhhh

show your code

[slate swan]

what part 💀

im not sending the whole file

[rugged shadow]

the one where you make the request to API_ENDPOINT

line 178 application.py

[slate swan]

okay 1s

[robust fulcrum]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/343944376055103488/1024320945244090408/IMG_20220927_193515.jpg
Guys is there any UI improvement i should do in my game?

[slate swan]

r = requests.post(
"{API_ENDPOINT}/oauth2/token",
data=data,
headers=headers
)

@rugged shadow

[rugged shadow]

you forgot the http:// and the f in the fstring

[slate swan]

could that be why?

bc the f strings r gone?

[rugged shadow]

Yes

Without the f it's just a normal string

[slate swan]

ight, ill add them

[primal token]

You should use buttons

[upbeat marsh]

If I make a command that recites one line of the verse of a song each second, would it overload the Discord API?

[rugged shadow]

you'll get ratelimited

but i wouldn't call it "overloading"

[upbeat marsh]

How many messages could it send in a, say, 10 second time frame before getting ratelimited

[wispy spade]

not overload, it can handle your connection aight

you'll just get ratelimited tho

[rugged shadow]

i dont know

[dull terrace]

50 per second across all of discord

5 per second per guild

But that's also rule of thumb, I'm sure how they calculate stuff is more complex than that

[vale wing]

Yeah there are per-route ratelimits that are private

[slate swan]

How can I sync my slash commands to every guild rather than using guild = . . .

[vocal snow]

Just sync them globally

[slate swan]

Ye... how?

[naive briar]

Just tree.sync() without passing guild kwarg

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.sync

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.sync

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

Syncs the application commands to Discord.

This also runs the translator to get the translated strings necessary for feeding back into Discord.

This must be called for the application commands to show up.

[slate swan]

How do I get the error if the bot can’t dm a user inside a command

[hazy oxide]

discord.Forbidden

[ionic edge]

i know its messed up

discord.ext.commands.errors.MemberNotFound: Member "890131928454410270" not found.

[slate swan]

see your parameter definition, anythinf after *will be coverted to a string by dpy

[ionic edge]

same error

[slate swan]

show your command parameters?

the code*

make sure it's like Context, member: ...

[naive briar]

Why are you fetching member? Isn't "member" already a member object?

[slate swan]

oh lol

[ionic edge]

if the member is not in guild it shows the same error

[slate swan]

how is it a member then

[ionic edge]

umm?

[slate swan]

if the user isn't in a guild, then how is it supposed to be a member of that guild. why would anyone mention someone like that

or you can simply typehint member as a Union of discord.Member and discord.User and discord.py will do the work for yoh

smh

[ionic edge]

oh yes

[vivid gate]

guys

can anyone help me with coding a bot

when i want the bot to answer me how can i make it to happen

[tacit prairie]

What is that
[ERROR]: Message contents cannot be null

@solemn cradle

[naive briar]

You can't send message if the content was None

[tacit prairie]

@naive briar that is my help cmd error

@naive briar i cant send the error pic in your dm

@vagrant crescent

[rare echo]

@tacit prairiejust send the code and the error here

[slate swan]

!rule 9

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

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

[slate swan]

you can ask your problems while coding one and people will help with it

Ohhh

Thanks and sorry

Does anyone knows why is it like that

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):

    channel = bot.get_channel(1023615552477995080)

    background = Editor("pic.png")
    profile_image = await load_image_async(str(member.avatar.url))

    profile = Editor(profile_image).resize((150, 150)).circle_image()
    poppins = Font.poppins(size=50, variant="bold")

    poppins_small = Font.poppins(size=20, variant="light")

    background.paste(profile, (325, 90))
    background.ellipse((325, 90), 150, 150, outline="white",stroke_width=5)

    background.text((400, 260), f"Welcome To {member.guild.name}", color="white", font=poppins, align="center")
    background.text((400, 325), f"{member.name}#{member.discriminator}", color="white", font=poppins_small, align="center")

    file = File(fp=background.image_bytes, filename="pic.png")
    await channel.send(f"Hello {member.mention}! Welcome to **{member.guild.name}** Have fun!")
    await channel.send(file=file)```

Thats the code

whats the issue? the welcome thing?

[solemn cradle]

yo

[slate swan]

Yes

Its little there

Its supposed to be in the middle and bigger

[slate swan]

the image size is much smaller than that of the background so it appears small. resizing both images to an optimal size would be the fix

[slate swan]

How

!d PIL.Image.Image.resize

[unkempt canyon]

PIL.Image.Image.resize

Image.resize(size, resample=None, box=None, reducing_gap=None)```
Returns a resized copy of this image.

[slate swan]

Now i am at school so whrn ill come back ill try tysmm

np

[slate swan]

hi, how to build bot using javascript?

[pastel basin]

Any good course/guide for discord bots?

[slate swan]

discord.gg/djs

[slate swan]

docs are the best way to learn for now
how experienced are you with python?

[pastel basin]

Pretty good with basics. Like the course I am following right now, I am learning bout intermediate stuff.

[slate swan]

great
so you first step would be choosing a library for bot development
there's discord.py and it's forks ( disnake, pycord etc...)
and other libraries like hikari

I'd recommend discord.py or hikari

[pastel basin]

What does Client do?

[slate swan]

Client represents your bot in the code

[pastel basin]

Oh.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPTfmiYiuokI I am learning from freecodecamp right now.

[slate swan]

thats totally outdated

[pastel basin]

Yes.

Also, they are making bot in replit.

And that's bad, cuz replit files are public

unless you have bought some plans.

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/Ash-02014/426ec7974f705303a2363c739dd82309

[pastel basin]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html

This is the documentation?

[slate swan]

yes thats the doc page

[slate swan]

here's a nice guide

[pastel basin]

Yes, looks good.

Thanks!

@slate swan One question.

How will my bot stay online forever?

[slate swan]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

u need to buy a server

[pastel basin]

I believe there are other ways...

(free)

[slate swan]

um

i dont know them

[slate swan]

check pins in #965291480992321536

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

the user has no avatar

OHH

@slate swan

i did put a pfp now and it still doesnt work

also there r ppl w no pfp so now when they dont have a pfp then the bot will not do that?

you can use display_avatar

!d discord.User.display_avatar

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.display\_avatar

property display_avatar```
Returns the user’s display avatar.

For regular users this is just their default avatar or uploaded avatar.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

instead of member.avatar.url?

(str(member.display.avatar))

[vale wing]

member.display_avatar.url bru

[slate swan]

yes yes

it worked

finally

[slate swan]

how to send colored text on behalf of a bot?

discord.py

[vagrant crest]

hello guys

how can i add time duration for kick or bans

i create a bot but i can't find the code for it in discord.py

[slate swan]

timestamp=ctx.message.created_at

[vagrant crest]

thanks bro

[soft heart]

How do i pass a variable from a button to a Modal in nextcord?

Here is the code: https://pastebin.com/RCvgHNde

[naive briar]

Simply pass the "message_id" to the instance you are creating

await interaction.response.send_modal(
    Name(message_id)
)

[soft heart]

ok and where do i get it in the modal?

[naive briar]

You can set the class's variables by using self.varname = var and then get them using self.varname. In your case, that will be self.message_id = message_id

def __init__(self, message_id):
    ....
    self.message_id = message_id

I don't know if I used the words right, but I think it can give you a fair idea

[soft heart]

I think i get it ill try

[robust fulcrum]

Guys is there any platform which provides free discord bot hosting for like 5-6 months for free?

[slate swan]

make sure you call super().init if youre doing something like this ( its for zuuki )

[soft heart]

Ik i tried that but get this error now

TypeError: ModMail.__init__() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

class ModMail_Response(nextcord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, message_id) -> None:
        super().__init__(
            "ModMail Response",
            timeout=900
        )
        self.question = nextcord.ui.TextInput(
            label="What is youre answer?",
            min_length=1,
            max_length=500,
            required=True,
            placeholder=f"EE"
        )
        self.add_item(self.question)
        self.message_id = message_id


    async def callback(self, interaction: nextcord.Interaction) -> None:
        print(self.message_id)



class modmail_button(nextcord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)

    @nextcord.ui.button(
        label="Respond",
        style=nextcord.ButtonStyle.green,
        custom_id="respond:green"
    )
    async def report_user(self, button: nextcord.ui.Button, interaction: nextcord.Interaction):
        message_id= interaction.message.id
        
        await interaction.response.send_modal(ModMail(message_id))

here is the code again

[slate swan]

you only need to pass the timeout in the init ig

im not sure how nextcord modals work

!d nextcord.ui.Modal

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord.ui.Modal

class nextcord.ui.Modal(title, *, timeout=None, custom_id=..., auto_defer=True)```
Represents a Discord modal popup.

This object must be inherited to create a modal within Discord.

Is there any way to scrape a site then send it to bot? I wanna send that image as
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
🟩🟥🟩🟩🟩
🟩🟥🟩🟩🟩
🟥🟩🟩🟩🟩
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Is it possible?

[slate swan]

yeah

its possible or nah?

[cloud dawn]

Well it's possible but is it live edited? What do you have in mind?

[slate swan]

What do you mean by live edited?

[cloud dawn]

Well do you want to update the message accordingly?

[slate swan]

no

[robust fulcrum]

From where would I downloaded then?

[cloud dawn]

Then it is pretty viable. You would just need to use aiohttp then use asyncio.create_task (recommend to use loop) to use beautiful soup 4 (bs4) asynchronous.

[slate swan]

ill send u a link in dm because it doesnt show only that diamonds and bombs

or video

[cloud dawn]

Yeah? With beautiful soup 4 (bs4) you can extract that data from a website.

Depending if you need to login of course.

[slate swan]

it doesnt require any login

[cloud dawn]

@slate swan Do you code on phone only?

[slate swan]

no

[naive briar]

As they said in their Wiki

https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Termux_Google_Play

[slate swan]

i code on pc too

[cloud dawn]

Well then it's just a matter of what I said above.

"You would just need to use aiohttp then use asyncio.create_task (recommend to use loop) to use beautiful soup 4 (bs4) asynchronous."

[vagrant crest]

i want my bot can kick people without camera in voice channels what should i do ?

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.VoiceState.self_video

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceState.self\_video

Indicates if the user is currently broadcasting video.

[cloud dawn]

I recommend getting the voice channel the iterate over the members, I'd still make a check if the voice state is not None to avoid potential issues.

[slate swan]

how to do that? i am begginer and i don't know lots of things in py

[cloud dawn]

I suggest looking into aiohttp and make some basic requests then. Their Docs -> https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/ , are pretty clear so should only take a sec to setup in a command.

[robust fulcrum]

Fdroid not provides terminal .

[naive briar]

What?

[robust fulcrum]

I can't get terminal like termux in fdroid
Frdroid only shows me some packages

[naive briar]

I don't understand what is only shows some packages 🫠

[robust fulcrum]

It shows me this

[naive briar]

F-Droid is like an app store

You have to download termux from it

[robust fulcrum]

Oh

@naive briar this?

[naive briar]

Ye

[robust fulcrum]

Thanks a lot for help ! 😊

@naive briar i have one question
How can I run file?
I did python t.py and it said no such file or directory t.py
But i have that file

[naive briar]

That's because the file doesn't exist in its current directory

[robust fulcrum]

How can I run file then?

I even tried cd downloads/ but not worked

[naive briar]

Any errors?

[robust fulcrum]

It's says
no such file or directory downloads

How can I run files from my internal mobile storage?

[naive briar]

Go to storage

I mean by using cd

[robust fulcrum]

Ok

[robust fulcrum]

It says
no such file or directory storage

[naive briar]

What is your current directory?

Hey!

I have a bot event:

Code:
https://hastebin.com/bajolakuku.py

I want it to run after the bot is ready how would i do that?

[primal token]

You can create a task, dont use requests or time as they block the event loop

[pastel basin]

import hikari 

bot = hikari.GatewayBot(token='removed')

@bot.listen(hikari.GuildMessageCreateEvent)
async def print_message(event):
    print(event.content)

bot.run()
``` It's keep on printing `None`, whenever I type something in # general in my test server.

[old token]

do you have message intents?

idk about hikari, but in dpy you have to specify intents

[pastel basin]

I guess you don't neeed intents in hikari.

I'll read their documentation.

[slate swan]

how

[old token]

https://www.hikari-py.dev/hikari/intents.html

[primal token]

Yes, most libraries have an intents abstraction

You can use history but it's limited afaik

[old token]

someone halp me https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/696888596006830201

[slate swan]

how would i create the task?

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.loop.create\_task

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

Third-party event loops can use their own subclass of [`Task`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task "asyncio.Task") for interoperability. In this case, the result type is a subclass of [`Task`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task "asyncio.Task").

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

Changed in version 3.8: Added the *name* parameter.

[primal token]

Took @unkempt canyon a while, i thought it wasnt going to respond kek

[pastel basin]

This fixed the problem.

[old token]

Ya

[pastel basin]

To be honest, I found that from google.

Don't really know what happened...

[slate swan]

@tasks.loop(seconds=120)
async def change_status(*args, **kwargs):
        guild = bot.get_guild(393401064264564746) 
        membercount = guild.member_count
        await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.dnd, activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="{} members".format(membercount)))

why is it not working

[vale wing]

My bot is a fricking genius

[vale wing]

The guild with such ID doesn't exist or is unavailable

[slate swan]

thats weird

its the guild id

[vale wing]

!d discord.Client.fetch_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.fetch\_guild

await fetch_guild(guild_id, /, *, with_counts=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Retrieves a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild") from an ID.

Note

Using this, you will **not** receive [`Guild.channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.channels "discord.Guild.channels"), [`Guild.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.members "discord.Guild.members"), [`Member.activity`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.activity "discord.Member.activity") and [`Member.voice`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.voice "discord.Member.voice") per [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member").

Note

This method is an API call. For general usage, consider [`get_guild()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.get_guild "discord.Client.get_guild") instead...

[vale wing]

Try this

[vale wing]

It might be not in cache as well

[slate swan]

where do i put that

[primal token]

He's so smart, he doesn't even know about punctuation.

[vale wing]

Yes he forgor the dot at the end

I always do

[primal token]

It's called a period.

[slate swan]

?

[vale wing]

I never studied grammar sorry

[primal token]

😡

[vale wing]

Instead of bot.get_guild(...) you do await bot.fetch_guild(...)

[vale wing]

Microsoft blocked 22h2 in Russia but I still downloaded it lmao microsoft go take the L

[slate swan]

how can i use the voice client to play a music ?

[vale wing]

Is bot in that guild at all

[slate swan]

yes

[vale wing]

!d discord.Intents.guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.guilds

Whether guild related events are enabled.

This corresponds to the following events...

[slate swan]

on_member_join()

i have that

[vale wing]

Are you sure the bot whose token you are authenticating with is in the guild with ID you put to fetch_guild

And what intents do you have enabled

[slate swan]

OHHHH

I FORGOT TO PUT THE TOKEN

[vale wing]

Wtf

[slate swan]

TYSM HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA

?

[vale wing]

Depends on where you are going to play the music from

[slate swan]

youtube ?

[vale wing]

That's illegal

[slate swan]

so is spotify supported ?

[vale wing]

Check if they have public API

Idk myself

[slate swan]

What do you recommend

[vale wing]

I don't make music bots, but you need a service with public API

[slate swan]

oh

[vale wing]

Ok so they have it, now explore the endpoints and find out if you can search the song and then stream it

[slate swan]

ok

you can't make music bots for the mass

discord will not verify it

idek i guess i'm overlooking it, never used buttons before

[slate swan]

guys

howdo i put an emoji

like that the bot will send a message w emoji

[honest shoal]

type \ just before and emoji to get it's format

[slate swan]

Like

!ablobhammer

[honest shoal]

yeah

[slate swan]

with \ at start

tysmm

[honest shoal]

no

[slate swan]

oh

[honest shoal]

just paste this in code

and you will get an emoji

[slate swan]

\

it doesnt work

[honest shoal]

yup

[honest shoal]

when you send the msg on discord, obv

[slate swan]

oh

then how do i make it work

you can also just post the unicode

literally just copy paste the emoji as is from emojipedia

if its custom then yea do that way

[faint blade]

guys someone sent me this and its a discord bot

[slate swan]

oh

[honest shoal]

.send("This is my fav. duck - ![ducky_lemon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/753353851058520256.webp?size=128 "ducky_lemon")")```

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @faint blade!

It looks like you tried to attach a Python file - please use a code-pasting service such as https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[honest shoal]

like this ^^

[slate swan]

yes i did it

and it doesnt work on discord

because the bot doesn't have the emoji then

[honest shoal]

those emojis can be directly used in code

[slate swan]

yeah

[honest shoal]

windows key + .

[slate swan]

huh no i literally just copy the emoji and paste it lmao

but

this one

It is from the server

adn it didnt work

if the bot doesn't share and a server where that emoji is then it won't work

[honest shoal]

that will consume 4-5 seconds more

[slate swan]

it is from the server

embed = disnake.Embed(description="❎ This is a premium feature

[honest shoal]

where are you putting it?

[honest shoal]

I mean, which field

[slate swan]

oh

main.py

its animated

so you need to do <a:

oh

tyyy

ill try now

still doesnt work

[honest shoal]

bot is not having access to that emoji then

[slate swan]

how do i put an access

is it animated?

yes

<a:theemoji:theid>

because ctx.respond doesn't return a message object

you need to get the message separately

[slate swan]

and the emoji is in that same server as the bot?

yes

and your sure thats the right name of the emoji?>

let me check

yes
