discord-bots

[slate swan]

you cant use ctx there, app commands work with interactions

but in ur case it will

[smoky cedar]

@discord.app_commands.checks.has_permissions(administrator)
@tree.command(name="ban", description = "bans the specific user! (Admin) ")
async def ban(ctx, member : discord.Member, reason:str):
  await member.ban(reason=reason)
  await ctx.response.send_message(f"__**SUCCESSFULLY BANNED {member}! **__")

like that?

[slate swan]

yes and rename ctx to interaction to avoid confusion

its not a ctx , its an interaction

[slate swan]

administrator = True in the decorator

[smoky cedar]

and also, is this how I make return if member don't the hsve the required permission

return

?

[tired hinge]

okay so my bot keeps getting rate-limited. what happens if this keeps happening? and i'd appreciate any tips on how to reduce requests 😔

[rare echo]

stop trying to ddos discord with your bot 🙄

[hushed galleon]

if you're using replit, getting ratelimited is a typical issue

[tiny wraith]

i did so and it gave me different sets of error

name 'bot' is not defined
name 'bot' is not defined
name 'bot' is not defined
Traceback (most recent call last):

[primal token]

He cant kek

You would need a huge botnet and either way cloudflare will still block the attack

[rare echo]

well my layer7 bypass is way stronger than anything cloudflare i took down 1.1.1.1 with localhost 🤓

[smoky cedar]

.

please help

[rare echo]

im not ignorin ya i just dont use the decorator so im not 100% ;o

you should be able to make an error handler if they are missing perms and return with a message ie "missing perms"

[smoky cedar]

i know but how..

im beginner

[naive briar]

discord.py is not a beginner-friendly library

[smoky cedar]

i mean i wanna learn..

soo

yeah..

[primal token]

You should look into the paradigms the library and python use, here's a good list:

#discord-bots message

[rare echo]

cats not saying its impossible, its just going to be reasonably more difficult to jump straight into this instead of learning some core basics first

[primal token]

Cat never said it was impossible, It's the learning curve that is quite difficult as the paradigms used in the library and the principles are quite complex to learn without any base core knowledge

E.g how would you learn about OOP if you dont have a grasp of something like polymorphism, which is an issue i see allot

[smoky cedar]

thanks for explaining even tho I didn't understand some 🥲

[mellow hollow]

hi

dont wanna spam but could u send me the base36 code

[meager chasm]

nobody understands what noid says half da time, dont worry 😆

[primal token]

Should i be offended?

[meager chasm]

no it just mean u r too smart for da rest of us

[primal token]

no

[limber bison]

how can i create a sync command

Is this what you are interested in?

Sorry this is not #esoteric-python I forgor

[primal token]

Uncalled for

[vale wing]

That is the point

[primal token]

smh

[slate swan]

The ; in import is pointless lol

Yes I'm pretty sure there's on command event and the name is global check I think

[naive briar]

He wants to be in one line, so nah

[slate swan]

O I didn't know

async def on_command(ctx):
    channel = bot.get_channel(log_channel_id)
    server = ctx.guild.name
    user = ctx.author
    command = ctx.command

[tired hinge]

exactly

[primal token]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel can return None making it error prone, why the creation of useless variables over using literals?

[abstract lark]

hi please can anyone help in my python programming question

[pastel basin]

How to run multiple bots in a single block of code discord.py?

[sick birch]

don't think you can without like threading or similar

generally not worth doing

just run 2 different processes

[vale wing]

It is one lined so it's not

Discord just displays as there's a new line but in fact there's no

[slate swan]

I didn't know it was 1 liner

[vale wing]

Nah I one-line in cringiest way possible

[pastel basin]

Oh okay

Should I start coding bots later or now? I don't know about tuples and class but know about other data structures.

Async programming isn't also that complicated..

[primal token]

In that case it could've been done better

[vale wing]

More cringe?

[sick birch]

Depends on what you think async programming is. Just "stick await in frnot of everything" is an incomplete understanding of asyncio, and hence would seem easy. I would say having an intermediate knowledge of asynchronous programming as a general concept, and as python's implementation is quite important as well as intermediate python would greatly help speed along the process

[primal token]

yes

[wary shadow]

I'm of the opinion that you should work on a project that interests you. If that is a bot, work on a bot. Know, however, that there are a large amount of foundational elements used in bots that will challenge you continually. You can always pair your work with a book like Automate the Boring Stuff to learn the basics as you go.

[sick birch]

I also find that people just like to dive into discord bots as their first foray into discord bots, but from what I see a lot, these people end up fighting with the language rather than using it as a tool and working on their bot

[pastel basin]

Yes

[primal token]

Automate the Boring Stuff is boring

[vale wing]

😋

[sick birch]

It becomes a mindset of "How do i get python to do what I want it to" instead of "How can I make my bot do what I want it to?"

[pastel basin]

I saw people saying "JS or PY?"

[pastel basin]

never read it only read first 3 pages.

[vale wing]

Write a discord bot in java I dare you

[sick birch]

The answer to that also happens to be the answer to, "Which language are you most comfortable with?"

[pastel basin]

Yes

[wary shadow]

Yeah. Bots are cool. They do what you tell them on a platform others can see. It's the right mixture of allure to make them the starting project for many. That's fine, so long as you know the uphill learning challenge is steeper.

[pastel basin]

Yes, just like IDEs. They ask "Pycharm or Vs code". Go with the one which is comfortable for you...

[pastel basin]

Since I love a game called blackjack, I am gonna make a bot for it!

I have already made this game months ago but... gonna code it in bot.

[dull terrace]

You can technically get by without classes for a while, I did my first bot without classes then went back and added them later

I also did it entirely in one file

Would not recommend

[cerulean folio]

hi people !
there's something i'd like to ask but didn't find the proper community to ask:
Someone told me "when you click an image on discord, never click that 'Open Original' because you can get hacked, and I know how to make such images"
I highly suspect that dude to flex and being a bit mythomaniac but you know I said after all it might be true and googled it, and found out there are some tricks possible by adding a VBScript at the end of the text file that could change your windows wallpaper. So I started doubting.

Are images on discord possibily a security breach? :o

[slate swan]

you'll eventually learn classes since discord.py ( or actually any general usage python library) is designed that way

[pliant gulch]

The images you see inside of discord are embeds they are embedded into discord from the information of whatever website link was sent. There is always a risk of a website being malicious potentially. Some websites could utilize vulnerabilities to "hack" your computer, etc. Some might just grab your IP address. You're relatively safe by viewing only through discord. Unless you trust the site you should try to avoid opening original

[slate swan]

thats not the same for images that people upload manually on discord right

cuz its just some bytes

[pliant gulch]

Bytes are still harmful generally speaking. I would say your safe from an attack via the website directly as uploaded images go through the discord CDN when you view

There is however a chance where there is some kind of vulnerability with the CDN

Unless for whatever reason you'd need to open the original I would suggest just viewing it via discord

This is pretty much do-able with hex editing though, I think I have a non-malicious example

[primal token]

The execution of a snippet of code in a image was patched but it still triggers windows antivirus, as anything that gets sent into discords cache must be read, i'm also not sure if it qualifies as Steganography which i doubt

[primal token]

😭

[cerulean folio]

ohhhh i get what you mean, hang on

[cerulean folio]

in that case you get this from discord right?
is there any way to get hacked without getting this warning message?

[cerulean folio]

oh so it's nothing bad to worry about right?

[pliant gulch]

Can't say for sure. What happens when there is a vulnerability with discord itself?

[primal token]

It just triggers the windows antivirus and the antivirus coroutines the threat so nothing to worry about

[cerulean folio]

alright I get it, but indeed what andy said is right, when you paste an image link it doesn't get into discord's CDN, so you get an embed of the image and that "Open Original" will bring you to the link that got shared which opening it on browser could be malicious for sure. Alrightie !

[paper sluice]

!e

print(False == 'False')

[unkempt canyon]

@paper sluice :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

False

[paper sluice]

the false you get from getpuuid['data'][0]['teams']['red']['has_won'] is probably a boolean, you are trying to compare it with a string which is False

[cerulean folio]

result = "Win" if getpuuid['data'][0]['teams']['red']['has_won'] == True else "Lose"
print(result)

That's one way to fix it. But in your case you have another option for not working ^^

[light jungle]

anyone have an example of a giveaway bot?

[glad cradle]

the == True part is not necessary

[split nest]

can someone help me out with the code for adding roles, i forgot it

[cerulean folio]

oh right that's even more concise :D

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

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

[slate swan]

its actual better to check the exact value ( True ) here.
a better approach would be using ... is True instead of ... == True

[pliant gulch]

In some cases omitting the actual check and only seeing if it is truthy will be slower than checking the identity of the thing

[hasty bison]

ye thats what the error is all abt

[austere vale]

im trying to code my bot to send a message when i go live on twitch. how can i get my client id and bot token? or do i not need one?

[slate swan]

yeah it’s member.add_roles not bot

[hasty bison]

yeah ive already found it

thank you anyway

#Clear Messages Command
@bot.command(aliases= ['purge','delete'])
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)

        time.wait(1)
        await message.delete()

it doesn't delete the msg afterwards

[slate swan]

because you don’t have a message object so ur not deleting anything

[hasty bison]

what should i put

i think ive found it

lemme try

still havent found it

[spark saddle]

I need help with a lfp command ill send u a dm of an example.

also give Role

[slate swan]

yes you for sure need your bot's token
you can get it from discord developers page
go to ur application -> bot -> ( add bot if already didn't) -> reset and copy the token

you probably won't need the discord bot's client id

[spark saddle]

can u help me with the give Role command?

[austere vale]

do i need any tokens or ids from twitch?

[slate swan]

im not very experienced with twitch 's api but probably yes
what library are you going to use?

[slate swan]

code/error?

[austere vale]

nextcord.py

[spark saddle]

no but i do have an error with this member thingy

async def mir(ctx, role: discord.Role):

  members = []
  try:
    for member in role.members:
      members.append(f"\n {member.mention} `{member}`")
  except Exception as err:
    print(err)
    return await ctx.respond('error', ephemeral=True)
    
  
  e = discord.Embed(title=role.name, description=''.join(members), color=role.color)
  await ctx.respond(embed=e, ephemeral=True)

is the code @slate swan

[slate swan]

and for twitch integration?

[austere vale]

idk, ive never done this before so thats why im trying to look at ways to code it

[slate swan]

what are you even trying to do there
to add a role you would be simply using member_object.add_roles(role_object)

[slate swan]

how much are you done with the discord bot part?

if you haven't made any progress with nextcord yet, im aware of libs with twitch integration

[spark saddle]

ill show rq so basically it shows all the members in a role like this
-members @dawn lichen

oops

[slate swan]

just use on_presence_update

[slate swan]

wouldn't that be totally presence dependent?

like what if they don't use rich presense

yeah that’s the only catch

and if twich api exists, why not use it

[spark saddle]

also the give Role thingy its suppose to give a role to a player btw.

[slate swan]

!pip hikari-kasai :V

[unkempt canyon]

hikari-kasai v0.10a0

A bridge between Discord and Twitch chat.

[slate swan]

prob sure twitch has endpoints for started streaming too

[slate swan]

what else could add_roles mean

well that’s what I was gonna say last time I checked they don’t, you have to make a task to check

if they’re streaming

[spark saddle]

how do u make it slash command?

member_object.add_roles(role_object) how do u use that?

[slate swan]

u need a member object lol

[austere vale]

i'll try to work with this, thank you so much

[spark saddle]

does @gloomy cloak_command work with it?

[slate swan]

yeah you just need to get a member

[austere vale]

mans just pinging everyone

[slate swan]

lmao

[spark saddle]

ight so embed.set_description works?

@slash_command
member_object.add_roles(role_object)
embed.set_description()```

?? @slate swan

[austere vale]

why dont you just try it instead of pinging to ask if something works

u dont even have anything inside to set the description to

[spark saddle]

because im new to python?

[plucky forge]

I have a problem

I have installed discord-components and i don's know what's happend

[austere vale]

@spark saddle ok but you could easily answer your own question by attempting to run the code and seeing that it results in an error, why are you asking other ppl if something works when they're not the one running the code?

[spark saddle]

where do i find that?

[austere vale]

the error? you run the code and the error pops up in your console

[spark saddle]

oh ok

thanks

[spark saddle]

i have one more question how do i mention someones name into the embed?

[slate swan]

that import does not exist

[spark saddle]

oops

wrong guy

[spark saddle]

i have one more question how do i mention someones name into the embed?

[slate swan]

u can tag them but it won’t actually ping them

[plucky forge]

I try to import buttons

[slate swan]

that library isn't really under development anymore
avoid using it

[plucky forge]

@slate swan and what button library exists now?

[slate swan]

Discord.py ?

[plucky forge]

yes

obvious

[slate swan]

discord.py has buttons....

[slate swan]

totally not obvious, 50% of users use other libraries now

[plucky forge]

i can understand

xd

but

i try to make an atractive user interface in my discord bot

[spark saddle]

how do i make a command that gives a role to a specific user and a specific role? with slash command, options.

[slate swan]

hey

what lib should i use for making my bot

[sick birch]

discord.py

[primal token]

I prefer disnake because of their implementation of slash commands, it's quite easier

[flat pier]

in dpy its literally just a decorator, you sync then you use commands, not very hard at all

[spark saddle]

Guys how do you add a role to a specific user, specific role?

[slate swan]

ty, can you provide me resources to get started with it

[spark saddle]

robin how do you add a role to a specific user, specific role?

[flat pier]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ - the docs for discord.py

[spark saddle]

anyone?

[slate swan]

ty!

[spark saddle]

i really need to learn python

[flat pier]

Member.add_roles would be used for this

[slate swan]

i don't think making a bot is for newbies

someone told me same

[flat pier]

100%, especially in discord.py and other libs there's a lot of complex/advanced concepts going on and it simply can be hard for new python users to use discord.py

[spark saddle]

Member.add_roles is that it im trying to make it slash command @flat pier

it would be @gloomy cloak.slash or sum

[slate swan]

you have to get the user then use that on that user

[flat pier]

yes that would be it, there's no "slash" specific function for that

[slate swan]

get user with slash command

[spark saddle]

ok so how do i make a embed for that it wouldnt completely work to me.

[primal token]

Not really

[deep saddle]

why does this not work ```weight = input('Weight: ')

switch = input('(L)lbs or (K)g: ')

switch = switch.upper

if switch == 'L':
mathL = weight / 2.205
print(mathL)```

[flat pier]

can you explain whats complicated with it

[spark saddle]

is it like

[flat pier]

https://gist.github.com/scragly/095b5278a354d46e86f02d643fc3d64b#required-knowledge someon gave me this it was a good explanation from what i saw

[spark saddle]

embed.set_description()
embed.set_title()

like that?

[primal token]

Its abstractions are quite complicated for no reason, like why a tree for app commands?

[flat pier]

? its not very hard

its a command tree, same thing differen't wording

[primal token]

Literally makes no sense kek

[spark saddle]

is it embed.set_title

[flat pier]

so it being named tree makes it complicated..?

not to mention its named app_commands in Cogs

[spark saddle]

embed.set_title(Sign Command)
embed.set_description(User has been signed to a team)
Member.add_roles

is my code

[primal token]

You're missing my whole point, especially on its abstractions where a usage of a tree is used when the app commands are bounded to your bot not to a tree?

[pliant gulch]

Thats kind of like saying, why have a Bot.users when you have Bot.state._users

A tree is just separating the interface into a different area making it easier to navigate

It's more modular as well since you can subclass, etc

[primal token]

Over binding them to the bot like a context command?

[pliant gulch]

They are binded to the bot... Just under a different namespace

But context commands make sense for that as you have a DIFFERENT class for commands, E.g commands.Bot not Client

[slate swan]

the tree stuff is a load of horse shit 🤣

[primal token]

Arent they bounded to an instance of a tree which then gets loaded with a method which probably gets parsed?

[pliant gulch]

And what do you think the tree is, bound too..??

Do you magically somehow get state, do you magically somehow get rest?

[primal token]

The app commands would still be bounded to the tree technically?

[pliant gulch]

And therefor it's bound to the client no?

[primal token]

They just probably get internally parsed and setup etc

I'm not sure, dont you setup your app commands with an instance of a tree?

[pliant gulch]

And what do you think you need to make that tree...?

Have you even used discord.py's trees

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/8f19cfe72925a1dd493c8e92525186d34915d0a9/examples/app_commands/basic.py#L10-L20

[unkempt canyon]

examples/app_commands/basic.py lines 10 to 20

class MyClient(discord.Client):
    def __init__(self, *, intents: discord.Intents):
        super().__init__(intents=intents)
        # A CommandTree is a special type that holds all the application command
        # state required to make it work. This is a separate class because it
        # allows all the extra state to be opt-in.
        # Whenever you want to work with application commands, your tree is used
        # to store and work with them.
        # Note: When using commands.Bot instead of discord.Client, the bot will
        # maintain its own tree instead.
        self.tree = app_commands.CommandTree(self)```

[primal token]

Which you would use CommandTree.app_command?

[pliant gulch]

Is that no different from client.slash_command?

It's literally just another decorator

Your separating the code which is good

It's like saying, why use Cogs when I can put all the commands in the main file

I didn't design trees myself but I assume a huge point about that is modularity

I don't see how it gets any more complex in the way you put it

It's literally the same access like usual, a decorator

[primal token]

I'm not saying it's not good, I'm just saying its abstractions are quite questionable especially for something that shouldnt be so complex, in discords API it's just app commands bounded to your application I'm not sure why you would make it more complex than that, that just makes more confusion, going to your modular point, cant you just set the app command in a cog in disnake?

[flat pier]

you can do the same in dpy?

[primal token]

Never said you cant

We cant forget about pythons zen:

Simple is better than complex.

Complex is better than complicated.

[pliant gulch]

Okay. Why even use an API wrapper then? just do raw requests

[wicked atlas]

HTTP interactions > gateway interactions imo

[pliant gulch]

There is literally no difference other than separating the code. Instead of making the bot's namespace contain all the slash commands related stuff you push it into others. By doing this it gets rid of clutter especially with a lot of sub commands, etc.

If the wrapper decides to make it complicated great. But as a user you are negligibly effected by it

It's literally, just another attribute, just another decorator, and done

[pliant gulch]

That depends on your use-case

[wicked atlas]

You don't even need to have it as an attribute either, you can define it wherever the heck you want, as long as you can pass a Client into it.

[primal token]

Wouldn't say that is all completely true

[flat pier]

how? its literally all you do to create a slash command

[primal token]

Eitheir way, this discussion is all based on opinions and personal preference

[slate swan]

^

[primal token]

I ment it's not completely true in a sense of abstractions

Its not only another attribute and decorator as ive seen theres more steps to it

[hushed galleon]

in a way they took both implementation approaches as for the base client the command tree is (almost) completely decoupled, but for the commands extension they had to reference the tree several times in the bot/cog to provide a convenient integration of application commands

i.e. if you used Client + CommandTree you always have to reference the tree in order to manage your app commands, but for Bot you get the option to use @app_commands.command() in a cog or the @bot.hybrid_command() decorator which just turns into an app command for you, without the .tree step

[flat pier]

yea its simple to me which confused me as to why noid said it was complex after i told someone it isn't very hard to create a slash command

[primal token]

It's simple as you probably already have done it, but to me it's a bit overly complex and complicated and many beginners have issues with them e.g how to sync them and where or when to sync them, i'm not saying disnakes implementation doesnt raise questions either

[flat pier]

how to sync and "where" to sync is a thing (or should be a thing) in every lang, no lib should be syncing for you in my opinion

[primal token]

Not sure why given the user a bit more of complication is necessary but sure not wasting a few of the requests to sync your app commands isnt a problem to me, I'm not even sure a lib like disnake even waste those request to sync your commands, either way the limit per day is 200/1d so i wouldnt say that's quite an issue, it can happen as ive seen it happen which it only happened when the user did it manually, which made the user question where to sync the app commands

[meager chasm]

well, that is because noid is very smart in the aspect of developing. so when noid explains something to someone who doesnt have the same knowledge, it may be looked at as confusing because noid 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 noid would have been willing to break down the explanation.

[flat pier]

so im dumb for saying something is simple to me and complex for them (in a way)? this convo had already been broken down lol

[rugged shadow]

explain argument in fortnite terms

[slate swan]

you explicitly stated that you were confused as to why noid said what he said 🤣 nobody called you dumb

[meager chasm]

it is a copypasta 😆 not meant to offend u

[rugged shadow]

copypasta??

i dont think it is

[meager chasm]

Piece of text which is copied and pasted with minor modifications for humorous purposes

[flat pier]

im not offended at all it was just a random response loll

[meager chasm]

Check in this channel it has been paste d mny times

[flat pier]

confused as to why they thought it was complex* there's a large difference there

[meager chasm]

But with andy instead of noid

[rugged shadow]

ok

but it seems like a valid argument though

it's a common situation with helpers honestly

[slate swan]

you were still confused??? that’s the point they were making

[flat pier]

they weren't trying to make a point?

it is a copypasta
either way i dont care to argue it anymore

[thorny flint]

Anyone who have an example of a paginator with Embeds and components?

I've made one'ish, but the current page is keep messing up.
I have the embeds and views of components like this,

the_list = [[embed, view], [embed, view], [embed, view]]

They get added with a loop,, where each embed and view is different.

How can I add a paginator to that, without also messing up the current page (and total pages) ?

I'm using dpy v2

[glad cradle]

you could look at my repo, it isn't made using discordpy however even if it's made with disnake the concept is the same

https://github.com/Snipy7374/disnake-ext-paginator

[thorny flint]

Thank you, but this seems to only be for Embeds though, I already made something similar..

Like this is example what I want.. I made this in older version of dpy (V1) and another old 3rd party

and when going to next page, the components changes too

[glad cradle]

from what I can see it is easily implementable even with the example I gave you though I can't think of an actual implementation if I can't work on it

maybe I'll try to do a paginator with multy view

[thorny flint]

I'm probably looking on it in a wrong way, because right now, when I switch pages the current page index button gets messed up

[glad cradle]

how are you unpacking the lists of embed and view?

you're using static indexes?

if you want you can share the code

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[thorny flint]

Not on my pc now, but, well, first I made I added all the components to a list with the embeds..
So they go like this:
[[embed, [btn1, btn2, btn3, btn4, btn5], [embed, [btn6, btn7...]... ]
That was to get the total pages.
I then added the 5 buttons of each elements to a View, which i then replaced them with,
so it became like this, [[embed, view], [embed, view]...]

Sorry, I'm typing from my phone atm

For each element i added there was a a custom variable which was the current page.
That's where it gets messed.
Since they go +1 or - 1 everytime I go previous or next page

[glad cradle]

you should treat the sublist as the same way you treat it when there are only embeds and unpack two variables from it

first get the sublist with the page index

page_index = 1
components = [[...], ...]
msg_component = components[page_index]
embed, msg_view = msg_component

where msg_component is the sublist, e.g [embed, view]

note that that's only an example and it won't work if you copy paste it, I've made it just to let you understand

I haven't test this logic but should work well

[thorny flint]

I'm having a brain fart now. Need some rest

[glad cradle]

okie, you can freely contact me if you need further information

[kind trellis]

I want to send a log embed for when a member gets timed out. How do I do that?

[hasty bison]

#Clear Messages Command
@bot.command(aliases= ['purge','delete'])
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def clearall(ctx, amount=None):
    if amount == None:
        await ctx.channel.purge(limit=1000000)
        await ctx.send(ctx.message.author.mention + '  `Clear Messages Command` ** has been used succesfully**')
        time.wait(1)
        msg = message.content.lower()
        if ".clearall" in msg:
            await message.delete()```

it doesn't delete the message

[kind trellis]

#help-chestnut

[slate swan]

where is message coming from?
and you clearall is already a command
use purge to delete large amounts

[meager chasm]

Use on_member_update event

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change...

[kind trellis]

#help-chestnut

[meager chasm]

That channel is closed

[kind trellis]

I know, but it'll help you catch up

[meager chasm]

Ok so ur question is how to get duration of time out?

[kind trellis]

Yeah

So far, the only solution that has been found is with datetime

[meager chasm]

You will need to get datetime of when the timeout was issued

Through audit log or storing it urself

[kind trellis]

Is it straight forward via the audit log?

[meager chasm]

U have to go through audit log and find the correct entry

[kind trellis]

Alright. I'll do it later

[naive briar]

You could use on_member_update and check if the member got timed out and save it somewhere instead of looping through the audit log entries, but you do you

[kind trellis]

I was thinking more trying my luck with Discord themselves and asking for an event that bots can access for the duration (ie, an output like "1 minute, 10 minutes, etc."

[slate swan]

on_member_update provides you the member object that has those fields

!d discord.Member.timed_out_until

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.timed\_out\_until

An aware datetime object that specifies the date and time in UTC that the member’s time out will expire. This will be set to None if the user is not timed out.

New in version 2.0.

[naive briar]

You could compare the timed_out_until with the current time that the event was triggered

[slate swan]

lucas owo

okay so you need to await load_extensions now

that code is outdated

for the most of part yes

yes exactly

yep, but inside an asyncio.run()

yes

both bot.run and start works

you'll be awaiting start tho

hm is the cog loaded

[naive briar]

bot.run isn't a coroutine, so don't await it smh

you forgot await in the ctx.send

[smoky cedar]

oh yes

[fresh ferry]

hey everyone, was wondering if anyones attempted to make a bot which dms the user the moment they join your server?? im wanting to make one so users have a FAQ about the server plus a cool cat gif at the bottom ahah

[rugged shadow]

you can just listen for the on_member_join event?

[naive briar]

!d discord.on_member_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_join

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

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

[smoky cedar]

thanks, so is that how I make if the member doesn't have the permission and it replies with "you don't have perms "

??

[rugged shadow]

you forgot the @ban.error decorator

[smoky cedar]

there is one

[primal token]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.error

@error```
A decorator that registers a coroutine as a local error handler.

A local error handler is an [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") event limited to a single command. However, the [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") is still invoked afterwards as the catch-all.

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

[smoky cedar]

like this?

@client.command()
async def ban(ctx, member : discord.Member, *, reason=None):
  await member.ban(reason=reason)
  await ctx.send(f'**SUCCESSFULLY BANNED** __**{member}**__!')

@ban.error
async def ban_error(ctx, error: client_commands.AppCommandError):
  if isinstance(error, client_commands.MissingRole): 
    await ctx.reply(f"You dont have that perms.")

or this?

@client.command()
async def ban(ctx, member : discord.Member, *, reason=None):
  await member.ban(reason=reason)
  await ctx.send(f'**SUCCESSFULLY BANNED** __**{member}**__!')

@ban.error

[tidal hawk]

How to view user Activity through Discord API ?

with request

[slate swan]

you mean the raw api?

[tidal hawk]

Yeap

[slate swan]

not possible without gateway

you get it thru gateway events

[tidal hawk]

damn okay

Does anyone know some sort of Discord's voice gateway libraries? To securely join voice chats through my own website xd

[slate swan]

most libraries implement sending voice

pycord and nextcord has recieve support too

[tidal hawk]

Hmm, but can you receive data from voice channels? https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/voice-connections

[slate swan]

yes

[tidal hawk]

Welp I need to do it through raw api, so I'm going to need to find out, how they are doing it

Bruh it's not actually supported

[pastel basin]

Oh okay, Thanks!

[slate swan]

Mhm

[tepid dagger]

idk where this would fit so im sending it here randomly but where can i find commands and stuff for the kahoot api

lol

[rugged shadow]

what's up brother

[shadow vigil]

what is discord.utils.find?

[slate swan]

!d discord.utils.find its like get but can search thru a function as well

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.find

discord.utils.find(predicate, iterable, /)```
A helper to return the first element found in the sequence that meets the predicate. For example:

```py
member = discord.utils.find(lambda m: m.name == 'Mighty', channel.guild.members)
```  would find the first [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") whose name is ‘Mighty’ and return it. If an entry is not found, then `None` is returned.

This is different from [`filter()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#filter "(in Python v3.10)") due to the fact it stops the moment it finds a valid entry.

Changed in version 2.0: Both parameters are now positional-only.

Changed in version 2.0: The `iterable` parameter supports [asynchronous iterable](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterable "(in Python v3.10)")s.

[slate swan]

.get works with with a particular attribute, .find works with a user defined function

[tepid dagger]

where do i find kahoot.py documentation lol

[meager chasm]

Not in the channel meant for discord bots 😆
But u should check online, if you can't find it then you'll have to read da source code

[tepid dagger]

alr

[tepid dagger]

i didn’t know where to put it lol

im pretty sure the thing is js so idk how to translate to python lol

[meager chasm]

It called kahoot.py but it's in js ?

[slate swan]

lmao it was originally written in js

kahoot.py is just an alter for that

https://github.com/DarthOCE/kahoot.py/blob/main/Documentation.md here's the docs

but well, it's better if you make your own scraper since that lib has a lot of issues and is severely undocumented

can you print while calling the sync method and see if the command names/group appear there? print(await sync())

and you'll have to use @app_commands.describe

right, you'll have to wait till the midnight of the region where the servers are located

see the second pin of the channel to learn how slash commands are created

[spark saddle]

which one

[white citrus]

Can someone help (nextcord)

doesnt need to be slash

[slate swan]

how do i fix that?

someone gave it to me

[vocal snow]

I come and you leave immediately i see how it is

Whats wrong in it?

[spark saddle]

i dont have a <module> thats called "discord" and idk how to fix that.

[robust fulcrum]

Just do pip install discord.py
You need to install discord.py for that

[spark saddle]

k

where do i put it

on top?

[simple kettle]

Any know any good videos to learn discord.py I have made discord bots I’m just new to the new version

[robust fulcrum]

Don't change anything

Just install discord.py using pip

How can I make a select menu option for every one of my cogs using a for loop?

[tidal hawk]

Few inches taller, and you bro?

[feral frost]

how do i use an if custom_id from a button = something

[naive briar]

I don't understand your question

[feral frost]

so in a button i used a custom_id thing

[feral frost]

how do i use an " if " with it like if the custom_id of the button is for example 1 it will print smth ?

if the button id is smth else it will print smth else

[feral frost]

? you there

[naive briar]

!d discord.ui.Button.custom_id - Just use it to compare it to something you said

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button.custom\_id

property custom_id```
The ID of the button that gets received during an interaction.

If this button is for a URL, it does not have a custom ID.

[feral frost]

you dont understand my question

[feral frost]

ill make an example

[feral frost]

so i have a button with label="1" and custom_id="1" and another button with label="2" and custom_id="2"

[feral frost]

like a button_callback but just with 2 buttons in 1 callback

[feral frost]

i found it but another question

[feral frost]

how do i place the thing in the image easier ? like in 1 thing instead of naming it like that for all the buttons

[naive briar]

You could subclass the view and put your desired buttons and callbacks in it

[feral frost]

how ?

[naive briar]

Here's an example:

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/counter.py#L21-L28

[unkempt canyon]

examples/views/counter.py lines 21 to 28

class Counter(discord.ui.View):

    # Define the actual button
    # When pressed, this increments the number displayed until it hits 5.
    # When it hits 5, the counter button is disabled and it turns green.
    # note: The name of the function does not matter to the library
    @discord.ui.button(label='0', style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def count(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):```

[sick birch]

Sure. Just subclass discord.ui.Button and use add_item in your discord.ui.View instance

[sick birch]

You have a typo, it should be = instead of -

[spark saddle]

in where?

[sick birch]

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix - '-')

here

[spark saddle]

oh shoot

what abt discord.ext?

[sick birch]

To be able to import from discord.ext you need to import discord first

[spark saddle]

ok im getting 2 errors now

[sick birch]

I can't tell what those errors are but I'm guessing it's probably that you don't have discord.py installed

Also are you following a tutorial? That code seems familiar

[spark saddle]

yeah but i coded it by myself like I wrote it

[sick birch]

Great. Just as a note of advice though I'd either be very careful about following those tutorials or just not use them as a resource altogether

[spark saddle]

oh

where is my discord.py suppose to be im pretty new to this is it a extension or do i make a folder and put it inside of the folder?

@sick birch

[sick birch]

Looks like it's good

Try running your python script again

[spark saddle]

ok now what

[sick birch]

Run your script and it should work

[spark saddle]

my token is a error now.

and it still dont work

[sick birch]

Can I see the error?

[cinder nacelle]

so like code2 = self.code.value?

[sick birch]

Did you try running the script?

[torn sail]

sure

you can also use it outside of the modal cause its an attribute of the modal instance

[spark saddle]

ya no

[sick birch]

I think you're looking at the wrong tab

[sick birch]

Select the "terminal" tab at the bottom, then run it from there

[spark saddle]

what?

[cinder nacelle]

self is not defined

[sick birch]

I believe the output is for VSCode-related things like extensions or any language servers

[spark saddle]

where

[sick birch]

Should be at the bottom where you see "output", "debug console"

just hit terminal, then run your file again

[spark saddle]

its stil lthe same

[sick birch]

What's it say now?

[torn sail]

are you getting it from outside the on_submit function?

if yes then it would be nameofmodalvariable.code.value

[spark saddle]

still the same

idk what to do

[sick birch]

Yes, but can I see what it says?

oh

You can pass in default intents like so

where do i put that

[sick birch]

So:
You can pass in default intents like so

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

bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)

make sure you enable it in your discord developer portal as well

Create the default intents instance right above your bot/client instance declaration

You don't need to instantiate a completely new bot instance

bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)

I only included this to hint at where the new piece of code should go, but you already have it

You only need these two lines

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

You haven't passed your intents instance into your bot constructor

Right now it's just kind of sitting there, not doing anything

oh

it shows that now @sick birch

btw im using replit now

simpler

[sick birch]

You're sure you're passing in intents properly?

[spark saddle]

yes look

[sick birch]

How about in the code?

[spark saddle]

huh

[sick birch]

I disagree, but if it works for now I suppose it's alright. Though I'd still stay away from it

intents = discord.Intents.default()

[cinder nacelle]

how can i get the user id of the person who pressed a specific button?

[sick birch]

interaction.user.id

[sick birch]

#discord-bots message see here

[cinder nacelle]

remove the client = commands.bot .... and where you have bot = replace the 3 points for the command prefix

[cinder nacelle]

thanks

[spark saddle]

how do i make a prefix for the command?

[sick birch]

It's just your command_prefix = "-", no?

[spark saddle]

no

command_prefix doesnt work

[sick birch]

How does it not work?

[spark saddle]

thats the error

[sick birch]

What is?

[cinder nacelle]

how can i add a user to a private channel?

[spark saddle]

command_prefix = "-"

[sick birch]

How is that an error?

[spark saddle]

NVM

[sick birch]

If by "private channel" you mean a channel with restricted permissions that only certain users can see, then perhaps this https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=discord textchannel#discord.TextChannel.set_permissions

[spark saddle]

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-')

it is the error now

[cinder nacelle]

then it doesn't work for me

[sick birch]

I'm not sure what the error actually is. What you're sending is code, which is different from the error

[cinder nacelle]

                if row[0] == code2:
                    await interaction.response.send_message("Your code is correct, adding you to the channel!", ephemeral=True)
                    channel = bot.get_channel(1027715488878436432)
                    await channel.set_permissions(interaction.user, read_message_history = True, send_messages=True, add_reactions = True)```

[sick birch]

I can't help fix a problem if I don't know what's wrong

[cinder nacelle]

the user i want to add like i did in channel.set_permission is not added to the channel

and i get no error in terminal

[spark saddle]

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 7, in <module>
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-')
TypeError: init() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents'

thats the error

@sick birch

[cinder nacelle]

remove intents.default() for intents.all()

[sick birch]

That won't change anything

[sick birch]

Like I've said before, you need to pass in intents to your constructor otherwise it won't do anything

[spark saddle]

how do i do that?

[sick birch]

See this. Don't copy paste it, it isn't meant to be a plug and play solution. It's only a structure. It tells you where to put things

[spark saddle]

where do i go to pass my intents to my constructor

[sick birch]

Your constructor is commands.Bot(...), yes?

That's what you have in your code

You would add your intents to the end, so it looks like commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)

[spark saddle]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

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

commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)

[fading marlin]

you're just instantiating commands.Bot, you're not assigning the object to a variable. f-strings are with curly brackets: {}, not parenthesis

[thorny flint]

Anyone who have an example of a paginator with Embeds and components?

I've made one'ish, but the current page is keep messing up.
I have the embeds and views of components like this,
the_list = [[embed, view], [embed, view], [embed, view]]

They get added with a loop,, where each embed and view is different.

How can I add a paginator to that, without also messing up the current page (and total pages) ?

I'm using dpy v2
A screenshot example I made in V1 with another old 3rd party

[spark saddle]

guys how do i download discord.ext

[sick birch]

You don't

It's included in the discord module

[primal token]

The term library should be used, as its a folder with modules and subfolders, over using module which refers to a file that contains src code

[sick birch]

it gets the point across

I'd use the right term if that was their question, but these are 2 unrelated questions

[primal token]

Never said it didn't, but it's not exactly correct, talking about questions, isnt it better giving the correct view/point correctly with the correct terminology over raising questions or causing more trouble to a user, helpers should give great help over help that may cause further questions because of the wrong usage of terms, no? Not saying your help isnt good, but of course it should be as exact as possible

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html

A module is a file containing Python definitions and statements.

[thorny flint]

uhm, so how do I take a variable from outer class?

I basically have a View class inside a Cog,

So example

class the_cog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot) -> None:
        self.bot = bot
        self.a_list = []

    class the_view(discord.ui.View):
        def __init__(self):
            super().__init__(timeout=None)
            print(len(the_cog(None).a_list))

    @commands.command(name="nice_command")
    async def nice_command(self, ctx: commands.Context):
        self.a_list.append("Anything")

        view = the_cog.the_view()

async def setup(bot):
    await bot.add_cog(the_cog(bot))

Like example this would still print 0 instead of Anything in print(len(the_cog(None).a_list)) under the_view

[primal token]

the list wont have a length of 1 since the nice_command function hasnt been called yet

[sick birch]

over raising questions or causing more trouble to a user
You're right, in this case it really doesn't matter. It probably seems to people that modules and libraries are interchangeable terms, I could've used either. Module came to my head first, so I used it. In the vast majority of cases though, trying too hard to be terminologically (i don't know if that's a word) can and will raise more questions, so I try to use the most laymen terms I can so we can solve the question on hand instead of going on tangents to try and explain some terminology I used. In this case you're correct though, thanks for pointing it out

[thorny flint]

The view class is called, when I trigger nice_command

[primal token]

Well, the terms arent interchangeable so giving a word or/and term another definition thats not the one in python document is incorrect and contradictory, its better to have the correct definition of some terms or concepts over spreading false information?

[primal token]

you made an instance of the_cog which should be named TheCog to follow pep8, which then you tried to print the length of the list which of course would be 0 and that instance youre creating isnt even being registered

The logic of the code isnt correct

[fresh ferry]

Im wanting to make the bot send an embed instead of message ?? any ideas how i could do that ??

import discord
import asyncio
import sys
import random
import re
import os
client=discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Welcome message bot Logged in')
    print(client.user.name)
    print(client.user.id)
    print('-----')

newUserMessage = """your message
"""

@client.event

async def on_member_join(member):
    await client.send_message(member, newUserMessage)

client.run('token') 

[sick birch]

I don't recall send_message being a method of discord.Client?

[fresh ferry]

i mean im currently learning python as a whole and this was copied off of a github as i needed the bot straight away, just tryna figure out that issues with it ahha

[sick birch]

Oh, I see. Yeah that's not a very good idea. Discord bots have a bit of a pre-requisite in that you need to know a decent bit of python before starting

Wherever you got this code from, it's either A) written by someone who doesn't know what they're doing or B) just really, really outdated

[robust fulcrum]

I mean a library that helps in writting difficult code easily
I am not able to tell you properly.

[sick birch]

You mean like.. github copilot?

[fresh ferry]

yeah i started learning cause the dev i paid to make 4-5 bots for my server ended up messing up all the sources and not coding them properly so i had to go through and painfully learn how to fix the errors lol

[robust fulcrum]

Ah you not able to understand what i mean

I want to make library like discord.py superutilis

[sick birch]

That's common. I'd never pay anyone on Discord for anything really, unless it's a 100% trusted and vetted source. The discord bot space is kind of weird in that a lot of people don't really know best practices or how to create a bot or its infrastructure properly

[sick birch]

Sure you could, but you'd still be writing the difficult code, just abstracted away into a utilities file

[robust fulcrum]

I am not able to understand what would the difficult code
Like i can make a comamnd which writes discord.py boilerplate?

[sick birch]

Oh, as for the boilerplate people will usually have a github repo with the necessities. We actually have our own called python-discord/botcore

Whenever we need to make a new bot we always start with the botcore as it has a lot of the boilerplate

[robust fulcrum]

Ok

Ig i should make something else

[fresh ferry]

yeah like i truly have all day everyday to learn coding and spend like 6-8 hours daily learning but the moment I look at tutorials i get extremely overwhelmed

[sick birch]

Good, don't look at tutorials

Most of them are outdated by now and even when they weren't, they weren't very good to begin with

[fresh ferry]

yeah ill take that advice like gold and butter haha what would be the best place to learn?? read over the discord.py doc or slowly make small simple bots and slowly go from their learning practically ?

[robust fulcrum]

Can you suggest anything that i can make?

[sick birch]

!projects if this is what you mean?

[unkempt canyon]

Kindling Projects

The Kindling projects page on Ned Batchelder's website contains a list of projects and ideas programmers can tackle to build their skills and knowledge.

[sick birch]

I wouldn't recommend jumping head first into discord bots, best to take it slow and learn Python first

!resources as for resources, see here VVV

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

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

[primal token]

Robin you're using the command incorrectly

[sick birch]

which one

[primal token]

Look at the url of the hyperlink, your message was used as a query

resources

[sick birch]

oh

i didn't know it did that

[wicked atlas]

didn't even know that was a thing tbh

[sick birch]

doesn't seem to do anything though

[wicked atlas]

probably accounted for this 💀

[fresh ferry]

okay ill stick with this resource pack then, before i go and start reading this, does this teach python as a whole or just discord python ?? i know both are the same aha

[primal token]

What's discord python?

[sick birch]

The resources listed there are quite varied. I'm not sure if there are any discord bot python related guides in there, if so, all the better. But you should focus on learning python as an overall

[fresh ferry]

yeah i will and thank you for taking the time to explain things properly to me 🙂

[sick birch]

no worries

[thorny flint]

Basically I'm trying to make paginator with embeds and components,
I'm having a hard time not messing up the Current page and/or total pages

Now, I have the total pages working on the index, but the current page in the index button isn't working

I do change it init and I also see self.cog.index is changing.. but the Index button isnt updating

I also try to change it with the interaction of the button before editing the message, but still nothing

[feral breach]

my bot can't read messages

[feral breach]

try to use unicode for emoji

[fresh ferry]

are you gonna open source this O.O i love to see how your doing that

[feral breach]

me too

[fresh ferry]

insane what discord bots can do aye ahaha hopefully he can slide us the sauce for it haha

[thorny flint]

I've had it for a while, and still using Discord.py V1, since I haven't figured how to build it properly on V2 yet

[feral breach]

you are right but my bot can't even read messages

[thorny flint]

Doesn't make any difference

[feral breach]

please FOSS it

[feral breach]

try to update discord.py

[fresh ferry]

would it be respect if i asked for the github for this project ? if not its algoods 🙂

[thorny flint]

It's not public

[thorny flint]

I have latest version

[fresh ferry]

oh okay sorry

[feral breach]

sometimes latest version has bugs

[thorny flint]

It's not a bug

[feral breach]

what error message you got

search stackoverflow

[thorny flint]

I'm not getting any errors

[feral breach]

then what is your problem

[thorny flint]

Current page button label is not changing

[feral breach]

where is source code

[thorny flint]

So everytime I go next page it the label of IndexButton stays the same for some reasons

[feral breach]

can you use if to check button state

[thorny flint]

What do you mean

Finally after 3 days of trying to get it to work properly, I finally managed

[feral breach]

how you did it

[thorny flint]

Going to publish a smaller version later

[slate swan]

how can i get a role by id to set channel perms.. ive tried same methods as adding role but its not returning a role object for the channel.set_perms

^ in a cmd so i have ctx

How can I pass a dictionary as the variables for a sqlite query?

await cur.execute("INSERT INTO playerprofile VALUES (:bmid,:steamid,:playername,:rusthours,:aimtrain,:steamurl,:avatar,:relatedplayers,:updatedat,:names,:kills_week,:kills_day,:deaths_day,:deaths_week,:gamebanned)",({playerinfo}))

where playerinfo is a dictionary

[sick birch]

**dict

oops wrong reply

[drifting arrow]

lol

[sick birch]

query_data = {
  ...
}

await cur.execute(..., **query_data)

i suppose i owe you some help eh

I don't see what's wrong with putting the logic in the view class

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @hidden hazel!

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

[sick birch]

Are all the buttons the same?

What information is different between each button?

Do they need to be dynamic?

E.g, will all the information about the buttons be known before runtime?

Okay.. so this might be an easier alternative:

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(...) # regular view constructor arguments

  @discord.ui.button(label="Notifications", ...)
  async def notifs_callback(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction) -> None:
  ...

  @discord.ui.button(label="Nickname", ...)
  async def nickname_callback(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction) -> None:
  ...

Because as it stands, I don't see any use for a button subclass

Sure can

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(...) # regular view constructor arguments

  @discord.ui.select(...)
  async def select_callback(self, select: discord.ui.Select, interaction: discord.Interaction) -> None:
  ...

It's practically the same thing

[sick birch]

here's one https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py

that's not really necessary in your case

but it's there if you'd like

Ah, my bad. I had a feeling it was the other way around

You forget things like that after a while, my apologies

raise ValueError("unconverted data remains: %s" % ValueError: unconverted data remains: .794388 ;-;

[sick birch]

perhaps fromdb['updatedat'] is in a weird format?

[drifting arrow]

2022-10-07 14:03:44.794388

it's stored as a string for whatever reason

and I need to convert it to a datetime so I can compare it

fuck it. I dont need the h/m/s anyway

just remove them 😄

[sick birch]

You'll need to chop off that last decimal bit or store it in such a way that it doesn't appear

[drifting arrow]

it's fiiiiine

[sick birch]

preferably the latter which targets the source of the issue

[drifting arrow]

weekago = datetime.datetime.now(
            timezone.utc) - datetime.timedelta(hours=168)
        weekago = str(weekago)

            return
        else:
            print("NOT IN DB!!")

Solution!

[sick birch]

Hmm. I would use strftime to store it in the db in a way you can predict

And use the same argument in strptime

It's consistent and would work because you're storing it and retrieving it in the same manner

dt_format = '%Y-%m-%d'
weekago = ...
weekago_str = weekago.strftime(dt_format)
# store `weekago_str` to 

And retrieving:

lastupdate = fromdb['updatedat']
datetime.datetime.strptime(lastupdate, dt_format)

[ionic edge]

How Can i add owners to my jishaku command?

[slate swan]

do they have low level?

[upbeat gust]

Wdym low level in this case

[slate swan]

components. rather than using a view, disnake has something called low level. where you assign the components with the message then use a listener for when the components are interacted with.

[upbeat gust]

discord.py uses callbacks instead of events

Something similar to the components thing can be done though

[slate swan]

disnake does too they just give u the option to use low level or views.

[upbeat gust]

view = View()
view.add_item(myButton)
.send(view=view)```
Close enough

[slate swan]

also benefits to low level as well compared to views

@bot.command()
async def send_button(ctx: commands.Context):
    await ctx.send(
        "Here's a button!",
        components=disnake.ui.Button(label="Click me!", custom_id="cool_button"),
    )

@bot.listen("on_button_click")
async def cool_button_listener(inter: disnake.MessageInteraction):
    if inter.component.custom_id != "cool_button":
        return
    await inter.response.send_message("You clicked the cool button!")

beautiful

[upbeat gust]

No thanks

[slate swan]

persistency

and better on memory

[upbeat gust]

Interesting

[slate swan]

memory management in discord.py in general is not so good, you have no control over it

the same applies for forks

[slate swan]

discord.py has on_interaction event as well. you just gotta check that the interaction was a button, that's exactly same as on_button_click

https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/master/disnake/state.py#L953-L954

What is ctx.guild.22341534161346_role?

[smoky cedar]

the id role

🥲

[cloud dawn]

Okay but why is it an attribute of guild?

[smoky cedar]

server?

do i need to make it

ctx.channel(the id role), send_messages = True)

?

orr

no?

[meager chasm]

???

U cant put random shit together and expect it to work xd

Do you understand what function is

[smoky cedar]

no?

[meager chasm]

Ok, do you know anything about python

[smoky cedar]

kinda

[meager chasm]

You supposed to know python fundamentals before making discord bot

Like functions, classes, data structures

[smoky cedar]

is it like this then?

ctx.channel.set_permissions(ctx.guild.channel.1023331692515164222_role, send_messages = True)

or

ctx.channel.set_permissions(ctx.guildchannel.1023331692515164222_role, send_messages = True)

[vocal snow]

what the fuck

[smoky cedar]

?

[vocal snow]

You really should learn python before attempting to do whatever you're trying to do

I hope you know that putting random symbols and words together won't magically make your code work...

                 🤝-newcollab--50000
                  None ``` so i created a channel but how can i get the channel id?

[vocal snow]

collab.id

collab_channel = bot.get_channel(collab) is unnecessary. collab is already a TextChannel object

[cinder nacelle]

oh okay thx

[cinder nacelle]

AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'set_permissions'
i got the channel id but now i get this error

[vocal snow]

because collab.id.set_permissions makes no sense

you can't use set_permissions method on a number

you do collab.set_permissions since collab is the TextChannel object

[cinder nacelle]

yea but now i switched functions and now the only thing i have is that channel id

[vocal snow]

also, you should be able to set the permissions in create_text_channel

!d discord.CategoryChannel.create_text_channel

its just a fancy name?

not entirely

commands.bot()

commands.Bot() is different

im asking ab this

we can use prefix in this one

how is that different from discord.client()

i pretty sure bot is just an extension of Client

bot is same as client the difference is bot comes with commands. its automated for you compared to using client and manually having to handle the events

ok

commands.Bot is just a subclass of discord.Client with prefix commands related extensions

[brazen raft]

discord.ext.commands.Bots have the concept of commands built into the class, so you can have command handling and other stuff that is related to bot users. discord.Client is more abstract and has no concept of commands, only event handling, so you have to do these in on_message events for message commands, and on_interaction (I think it was called that) for slash commands

[slate swan]

more like a command handler

you can do app_commands without commands.Bot in discord.py, it works with CommandTree structure

[slate swan]

ty now that clears it up, im just reading the documentation before i do something

[brazen raft]

With discord.ext.commands.Bot, you can also have cogs and command groups (and also slash command groups)

Because discord.ext.commands.Bot has the concept of cogs and (slash) command groups. Same thing with extensions.

[robust fulcrum]

Guys i want to make a library realted to discord.py that helps making bots using dpy easy
Can anyone tell what type of library should i make?
Any idea?

[slate swan]

depends on wym by easy

id override the app_commands part if i were to do that

[brazen raft]

Maybe something around the component system

[placid skiff]

The diffrence is that discord.Client represents the current connection between your bot/application and discord, it is the class responsible to interact with the discord API, discord.ext.commands.Bot instead represents the bot itself, with all his components
in the end, Bot is both a subclass of Client and GroupMixin that provides the functionality to manage commands

[slate swan]

Client also represents the bot, Bot is merely an extension for prefix cmds

[placid skiff]

Of course, since client communicates with the API it is the bot too
If you interface the GroupMixin class with the Client class you will be able to manage prefix cmds without the use of the Bot class

[slate swan]

is there a way to give custom color to ButtonStyle then just using the predefined one?

[quick gust]

I guess yeah

use ButtonStyle.[color](...) maybe

or however buttons work

[short silo]

class Hello(commands.Cogs):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @discord.slash_command(guild= bleh)
     async def hello (self,ctx):
        Function

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(Hello(bot))

Just started using cogs, what am I doing wrong here ? Ignore the typos and indentation error if any, it isn't a copy paste.

[naive briar]

Are you using discord.py 2?

[short silo]

Pycord

[naive briar]

Ok, you have to add the bot argument in the setup function's parameters

[short silo]

My bad as said not copy paste, forgot to write

[naive briar]

It seems fine to me. Did you get any errors while loading it?

[short silo]

Nope

Let me share both files a sec

class Hello(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self,bot):
        self.bot= bot
    
    @discord.slash_command(guild_ids=config.GUILD, description="Says Hello.")
    async def hello(self,ctx : discord.Interaction):
        await ctx.response.send_message("Hello")

def setup(bot: discord.Client):
    bot.add_cog(Hello(bot))

@bot.command()
async def start(ctx: discord.Interaction):
    for filename in os.listdir('./Commands'):
        if filename.endswith(".py"):
            bot.load_extension(f'Commands.{filename[:-3]}')
    await ctx.channel.send("Bot loaded.")

[pulsar bridge]

Could one of you two ping me when you're done?
I don't wanna interrupt with my own problem

[naive briar]

What's wrong with it?

[short silo]

i dont see the slash command

so probably cog not getting loaded ?

[slate swan]

i want to edit a embed when a button is clicked any example?

[slate swan]

did you sync it?

[naive briar]

I don't know if you have to sync commands in Pycord

[slate swan]

it doesn't seem like pycord to me

or idk

[short silo]

it's pycord

well, i will look into it

[short silo]

.

[pulsar bridge]

Thanks!

Is there a way to either:
Delay the execution of something (like using time.sleep()) without making the whole program stop

Orrrr use a database to assign a 'tag' to a user for x amount of time, and after that time is up it executes some stuff?

[slate swan]

there's asyncio.sleep

[short silo]

would it be accurate in case of multiple such executions ?

i think i read somewhere that it might not be

[slate swan]

don't see an issue with it until the program exists before the sleep task is completed

but yes a db with a .ext.tasks.loop is lot better

[pulsar bridge]

Could you point me to a place where I could read up on it?

I’m familiar with how DBs work… just not that familiar

[slate swan]

you can save the user id of user and the time at which the role is to be removed
then run a task loop every second which removes roles for users whose roles are to be removed

[pulsar bridge]

I see, is there a place to read on it though?
An API or doc?

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

@discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[pulsar bridge]

Epic
Thanks, Sarth

[slate swan]

how to edit an embed using the button please help

[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.

[slate swan]

!discord

its not working

[fresh notch]

how do i make an error command so that if all the args are not fulfilled it sends a message

[slate swan]

for the love of the god throw an example or something please

Would the level 6 thing able to be written while checking database

And how would I go about making it

Writing text onto a template seems hard with python
