[edgy plinth]

alr

[vocal snow]

also, you're calling .format on the File and not the string...

[edgy plinth]

good point

[vocal snow]

same way you're setting the callback

although you really should subclass instead

[edgy plinth]

how

[vocal snow]

buffer = io.BytesIO()

img.save(buffer, format="png")

[edgy plinth]

does it need importing?

[vocal snow]

!d io

[unkempt canyon]

io

Source code: Lib/io.py

Similar names: asciimatics.io, pandas.io

[sick birch]

Yes, but I’m pretty sure it’s reset when you load up your replit the next time

what?

[honest shoal]

you tried !help but help command does not exist

[stable path]

Oh.

[limber pagoda]

No it isn’t

I have multiple megabytes worth of json files

[sick birch]

are they static configuration files? or user generated data?

I'm hoping it isn't the latter

[limber pagoda]

No I use the write file

I have an economy bot

And it stores the days

[dense coral]

view = nextcord.ui.View(timout=0/None)

[edgy plinth]

if content_word == "test" and message.author.id in Admins: 
          map = Update(Faction)
        
          bytes = BytesIO()
          map.save(bytes,format="PNG")
          map.show()
          bytes.seek(0)
          dfile = discord.File(bytes,filename="test_image.png")
          await message.channel.send("{} SHUT THE FUCK UP! {}".format(message.author.mention,file=dfile))

Help i have no clue whats wrong

[sick birch]

Use an f-string

[edgy plinth]

whats an f-string

[sick birch]

!f-string

[unkempt canyon]

Creating a Python string with your variables using the + operator can be difficult to write and read. F-strings (format-strings) make it easy to insert values into a string. If you put an f in front of the first quote, you can then put Python expressions between curly braces in the string.

>>> snake = "pythons"
>>> number = 21
>>> f"There are {number * 2} {snake} on the plane."
"There are 42 pythons on the plane."

Note that even when you include an expression that isn't a string, like number * 2, Python will convert it to a string for you.

[edgy plinth]

await message.channel.send(f"{message.author.mention} SHUT THE FUCK UP! {file=dfile}") ```like this?

[sick birch]

You need to pass in file as a seperate argument of .send()

await message.channel.send(f"...", file=dfile)

[edgy plinth]

thanks, but my filling is destroyed lmao (not ur fault)

[sick birch]

If it works it works

[jade prawn]

How can I detect when a component has been interacted with (I'm using python3.9)

[stable path]

Pain.

[jade prawn]

well, that would first require reciving the input in the first place.. ties back to my question

if you've found out how to do that, please let me know

how did you detect when they clicked a button

please share an example

can you show me an example of how you detected the button press though?

[indigo pilot]

Does anyone have any ideas how to do this
https://femboi.best/DVhgkBoi

i cant do bot.add_view(ReactionRoleView(menu=None, name=None) since theres a for loop inside the view so idk how

[fading marlin]

what're your trying to do?

[bright wedge]

    @discord.ui.button(style=discord.ButtonStyle.red, custom_id='one',emoji="🥾",)
    async def one(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
        guild = interaction.guild
        print(guild,interaction.user.id)

Error: None 1023653948123458718

why cant find the guild?

[indigo pilot]

make it perma so after bot reboots

most cases i could just do bot.add_view(ReactionRoleView(menu=None, name=None) but since theres a loop right inside the view i cant

[fading marlin]

why can't you?

also, you should be using custom IDs with your buttons

[indigo pilot]

i am

that just sets no timeout, not on reload & reboot

[indigo pilot]

look at the code?? i cant run None thru a loop

[fading marlin]

oh, right. Why are you passing None in the first place then? And if for some reason that makes sense in your head, pass in an empty list instead of None

[fading marlin]

wdym?

[indigo pilot]

thats what your supposed to do lol

and i cant pass a empty list i dont think since the view will be edited to none then

[fading marlin]

I wouldn't think so. Apparently, you're trying to make reaction roles with buttons, so I'm guessing menu would be the list of roles, and name would be, perhaps, the name of the guild, idk. You'd probably want to iterate through your "database" (which apparently is a JSON file and you shouldn't use that as a database), get the list of roles that you saved, and pass that to your view. Don't pass None, because you actually need a value

[stable path]

How would one go about adding a cooldown to responses? I’ve tried using the sleep command but it instead delays the response rather than stopping it all together.

[fading marlin]

interaction responses as a whole or slash commands?

[stable path]

Yes.

[indigo pilot]

i figured it out but thanks

and im using mongo lol

Im just gonna store rolemenus in the db and instead of passing a list in and making buttons just access my database, passin the msgid from the cmd, and make buttons as needed

[fading marlin]

I gave you 2 alternatives, you're giving me a "yes" answer. That doesn't really help

[stable path]

The first one.

I don’t want the commands to be spammable.

Since the environment I plan on implementing the bot a lot of the people in that server jump the bot all at once.

[fading marlin]

You're gonna have to implement your own cooldown system for buttons and modals. For slash commands though, there's a check:

!d discord.app_commands.checks.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.cooldown

@discord.app_commands.checks.cooldown(rate, per, *, key=...)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a command.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns are based off of the `key` function provided. If a `key` is not provided then it defaults to a user-level cooldown. The `key` function must take a single parameter, the [`discord.Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction") and return a value that is used as a key to the internal cooldown mapping.

The `key` function can optionally be a coroutine.

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown") is raised to the error handlers.

Examples

Setting a one per 5 seconds per member cooldown on a command:

[stable path]

Thank you.

[fading marlin]

you're welcome

[fading marlin]

i figured it out but thanks
alrighty
im using mongo lol
ah, sorry

for the rest, the first idea that you had in mind was a good one, you just had to implement a storing and accessing system that fetches the roles with their corresponding button ids which you can then pass to your view

[mighty pilot]

Can someone point me in the right direction to adding an option to a slash command? So if they use /level it shows their level, which I have already written. Or they can do /level: user=<user> to get someone else's level

Actually, nvm I think I just found it. We shall see.

[mighty pilot]

Follow up: did not work as intended.

[fading marlin]

you can type hint Optional or add a default value

from typing import Optional
from discord import Interaction


@app_commands.command(...)
async def command(self, interaction: Interaction, argument: Optional[str]):
    ...
# or
@app_commands.command(...)
async def command(self, interaction: Interaction, argument=None):
    ...
# or both
@app_commands.command(...)
async def command(self, interaction: Interaction, argument: Optional[str] = None):
    ...

        self.about_me = TextInput.value
        await interaction.response.send_message(f"**ABOUT ME**\n\n{TextInput.value}" , ephemeral = True) ```

textinput is not callable ?

[fading marlin]

TextInput is a class you use with modals...?

[robust fulcrum]

@asher suggested me to make a views and interactions manager library for discord.py
I asked him multiple times but he not told what should it do

[sick birch]

personally i don't think there's much need

there are already plenty of tools that do that

[robust fulcrum]

Actually I am asking whats meaning of interaction and views manager?

I will make this type of library for my practice

[sick birch]

Not sure. I guess a library to use discord interactions?

[robust fulcrum]

It says manager
Ig like a store of views and we can access them from any file?

Like redux in react?

[sick birch]

Maybe, probably not though

Might be better to work on something a bit easier and more feasible/useful

[ember nest]

What is the problem on this code why not working

[upbeat gust]

Lemme try

[ember nest]

Oh that worked thanks

[tired hinge]

if i have a list of messages i want to delete, which is better - channel.delete_messages() or purge() with a check?

by that i mean which is less likely to get me rate limited 💀

[hushed galleon]

depends on how you're getting the messages to delete

purge() uses the channel history() to gather its messages, but if your bot already has the message IDs you want to delete, then delete_messages() will likely be the most simple

[slate swan]

I think delete messages is better as it takes a list if I’m not mistaken

[hushed galleon]

delete_messages() is always a single API call while purge() is at minimum 1 api call, that being querying message history, and any number of api calls afterwards to delete / query more messages

[slate swan]

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction
a+million+dollars

The command works in second try but sometimes it fails and i have to try again to make it work

[naive briar]

If your command has to take over 3 seconds to respond, you have to defer it

And requests is blocking. Use aiohttp

[slate swan]

how do i defer it

[naive briar]

What's your library?

[slate swan]

pycord

i m using requests in other commands too so i might even defer it

[naive briar]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.defer - You could also use inter.defer. It's the same thing

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.defer

await defer(*, ephemeral=False, thinking=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Defers the interaction response.

This is typically used when the interaction is acknowledged and a secondary action will be done later.

This is only supported with the following interaction types...

[slate swan]

hmm got it

[zinc phoenix]

Hello guys, I'm thinking of writing unit tests for my discord bot, but when I run the programme, it returns "TypeError: monthrn() missing 1 required positional argument: 'ctx'"
Here's the code:

import unittest
from unittest import IsolatedAsyncioTestCase
from datetime import datetime
import pytz
from cogs.time_cmds import TCmd


class TestTime(IsolatedAsyncioTestCase, TCmd):

  async def test_month(self):
    month = await TestTime.monthrn("monthrn")
    await self.assertEqual(
      month,
      datetime.now(pytz.timezone('Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh')).strftime("%m"))


if __name__ == '__main__':
  unittest.main()

Can anyone help? Thanks.

[rugged shadow]

tests for a discord bot?

and we also don't know what monthrn is

[zinc phoenix]

Oh, sorry

It's a command that shows you the month as of now

I'm trying to writing a test case to see if it returns the right month

[rugged shadow]

so monthrn is actually a Command?

you will need to write a custom Context

[zinc phoenix]

I see

By using discord.ext.commands.Context?

[rugged shadow]

you'd need to subclass that, yes

[zinc phoenix]

Alright, thanks

I just want to tell you the idea of the project. I supposed to create a program for people who want to travel and there are three flights at the same time. The user must choose the best option in duration of flight, ticket price and if it is direct or transit. After he choose the program will suggest the best flight for him based on the options that he chose. Note: I have to use if nested in my code

[zinc phoenix]

Can you demonstrate it for me, I've subclassed the ctx one but I dont know what arguments to put in

[rugged shadow]

just *args and **kwargs, pass that into super().__init__()

i think you just have to override ctx.send and/or ctx.reply

[slate swan]

how do i sync commands in pycord?

[naive briar]

It's auto-sync

[zinc phoenix]

I still dont understand, can you give me a code example

Sorry, Im still new to programming

[naive briar]

The sync_commands always return None

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html#discord.Bot.sync_commands

[upbeat gust]

that's a really broad question

What leaderboard? Wdym global? What does it do right now?

So how does your leaderboard work

In your code

the names in the brackets are the guild names

Not just the best players in 1 server

but you already have people from different servers..?

so what's the problem

you want X, but X already happens

you said you want ppl from different servers, but that's already what's happening is it not?

Oh this isn't yours?

ah

ok well how does yours work, codewise

Is it getting these from a db or?

I don't even know what this game is I can't guess what columns you need

You just need what you want to store

If this isn't connected to a db then where are you getting this data?

don't store names when you can store ids, names change

Yes

you'd use get_user

have you chosen a db?

From the discord.py server:

TL;DR: MySQL is a bad database. Don't use it unless you have literally no other option.

Why shouldn't I use MySQL?

• MySQL has no transactional DDL. This means that if you fuck up creating a table in the middle of a migration, you cannot rollback easily.
• MySQL has a lot of security issues. New zero-day vulnerabilities are found regularly.
• MySQL is owned by Oracle.
• MySQL is slow. It beats Postgres etc at some things, but once you move beyond basic queries it begins to slog.
• MySQL disconnects you randomly. Unless you setup your connection specially, it will break regularly.
• MySQL allows all kinds of insane data to be inserted. '0000-00-00' is valid in MySQL.
• MySQL is not ANSI compliant. You have to turn it on; even then it isn't fully compliant.
• MySQL has no feature advantage over other databases; PostgreSQL has many more useful features (such as RETURNs).

There is no reason to use MySQL over PostgreSQL, or even sqlite3. See also:
https://blog.ionelmc.ro/2014/12/28/terrible-choices-mysql/
https://grimoire.ca/mysql/choose-something-else

[slate swan]

• mysql is owned by oracle
  how about Java and javascript

don't see any reason to not use mysql with a bot. unless you're doing some high-fi operations that only pgsql supports

• mysql disconnects ....

skill issue, use a connection pool, not direct connections

[upbeat gust]

Nope

[slate swan]

whats the issue?

[upbeat gust]

Find an async library for it and look at docs/examples

[slate swan]

the first thing you'll do is choose your driver
for async context you can use aiomysql or async with sqlalchemy ( relatively hard)
next you'll create a connection pool with the credentials of your host
later create the table with columns you need

!pip aiomysql

[unkempt canyon]

aiomysql v0.1.1

MySQL driver for asyncio.

[upbeat gust]

I mean it's your game, store whatever you need but that looks good

[slate swan]

are you using a connection or a pool?

seems all set then, simply create ur table and proceed now.

[upbeat gust]

You should decide if you want to have a composite pk of guild and user or just the user as a primary key

[slate swan]

sure ping me when you need help

vs code keeps giving me indentation error

i don't anything wrong with the code

@slate swan

[slate swan]

did you complete the function above that function?

yeah

mind showing that code?

i have a question

why does my cmd promt keeps repeating and iteration

that has already been done

if i add a licensing system

at the top of code

[slate swan]

just re-start vscode, the code is fine

im assuming its because of the if __name__ == '__main__':

it's still gives me error

this is the code being repeated

[slate swan]

does that say unexpected indentation or inconsistent use of tabs and spaces?

[slate swan]

yeah

which one

this is desirable

[slate swan]

unexpected indentation

this is repeated

How would I get a bot to scan a predetermined channel ID?

So I can set it as a parameter for an if statement.

Would it be something like discord.channel.id?

No that doesn’t work.

[naive briar]

I don't understand your question

[stable path]

The idea is to get it to only be able to respond in a predetermined channel based on its channel ID.

But I’m not sure what the library call is.

Or it if even exists.

[slate swan]

cann someone help me w that

[slate swan]

channel = bot.get_channel(channel_id) I think! i dont know if its true

like for me it works

[stable path]

I’ll try it.

[slate swan]

okay

[slate swan]

vs code has two type to do indentation A. 4 spaces B. a tab
i mixed my old code which was in (A) and used tab(B) in the new file
thats why it kept giving me error

[stable path]

It’s saying bot is not defined.

[slate swan]

Oh.\

[tired hinge]

with delete_messages(), do i need to pass message objects or message IDs?

[naive briar]

!d discord.TextChannel.delete_messages

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.delete\_messages

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

Deletes a list of messages. This is similar to [`Message.delete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message.delete "discord.Message.delete") except it bulk deletes multiple messages.

As a special case, if the number of messages is 0, then nothing is done. If the number of messages is 1 then single message delete is done. If it’s more than two, then bulk delete is used.

You cannot bulk delete more than 100 messages or messages that are older than 14 days old.

You must have [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") to do this...

[slate swan]

what do you want to do though?

[tired hinge]

it looks like it's message objects. thanks

[slate swan]

you can also pass a normal discord.Object if you don't want to fetch_message all the time

await channel.delete_messages(discord.Object(id=1234))

[slate swan]

wouldn’t be ideal tho no? All those api calls

[slate swan]

if its about api calls using discord.Object would be lot better than fetching message objects just to delete them

you don't even need a discord.Object tbh, any object which has an id attribute set as the message id works

import random
amount = 5
mines = 25*[':question:']
random_safe = random.sample(mines, amount)
for x in random_safe:
  mines[x] = ':green_square:'
print(mines)
print(f'\n\n\n{random_safe}')```

my bad, i used the wrong method above xd

TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str help pl

[slate swan]

I was so confused lmfao

yeah im high don't mine me

*mind

[slate swan]

x is a string and you're trying to index a list using that

[slate swan]

how doo i fix i havent slept in 30 hours

what do you want to do?

[slate swan]

It turn the 5 random ❓'s into 🟩

[feral frost]

how can i make a command that shows how many users are in all the servers my bot is in ? i tried len(bot.users) but that doesnt work

[vocal snow]

wdym "doesnt work"

[feral frost]

ye it just gives random numbers

[vocal snow]

random numbers? such as?

[feral frost]

bro that doesnt matter the thing is that it doesnt work

[feral frost]

every time i run the command again it gives another number

[vocal snow]

what's your code?

[feral frost]

?

[feral frost]

i gave you it before

[vocal snow]

your full command

[feral frost]

just that and an await ctx.send

[vocal snow]

and your member intents are enabled?

[feral frost]

idk

[vocal snow]

?? how do you not know what intents you've enabled

[feral frost]

well i dont remember ok but it is on

[feral frost]

so you know the problem or ?

[slate swan]

works for me fine

you just need to enable the intents

[feral frost]

it is enabled

even in my code

using intents.members = True

[feral frost]

?

[feral frost]

show me the code

[slate swan]

import os

bot.run(token)

[feral frost]

k

[feral frost]

ye it works if i print it but i cant use it in a command

[rugged shadow]

but it should work, can you show us an example of the output?

[feral frost]

yes

[slate swan]

[feral frost]

first didnt work but after some time it did

[slate swan]

skill issue

[feral frost]

the first never works

[slate swan]

like seriously how come it works for others and not you?

[feral frost]

it does work now just not right away

[feral frost]

idk

[slate swan]

e

[rugged shadow]

it's because of the cache

too bad

[feral frost]

lol

[slate swan]

looks like discord isnt installed ig

check for any duplicate forks of dpy in your modules and install dpy

it should work then maybe reinstall pycord

u used an interaction as an input type for your slash command option

Represents the connected client. `None` if not logged in.

[naive briar]

Just get avatar from it

[upbeat gust]

[patent wagon]

If I give my discord bot to somone to host and they start using it maliciously, if I change the token in Discord Developer Portal will they be able to still use it?

[slate swan]

Are there any legit free alternatives for heroku?

Where i can host my bot

[naive briar]

No

[slate swan]

What would you recommend?

Okay

[silk fulcrum]

If they won't get the new token somehow - no

[slate swan]

interaction.interaction.original_message
because you call your ApplicationContext as interaction. be consistent with names.

[slate swan]

error?

[regal heron]

Hey ! I just used "py -m pip install discord.py", in terminal it says that it is installed but it doesnt seem to work

What can I do ? 🤔

[slate swan]

how many versions of python do you have

[regal heron]

1

I just installed pycharm on this laptop

3.9

[slate swan]

you're using an venv to run the file, did you install discord.py in the venv?

[regal heron]

I just ran that command in terminal, nothing else. It usually worked like that

[mighty pilot]

How do I then write the optional arguments into the base command?

[naive briar]

It's lower case b for the button decorator

!d discord.ui.button

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.button

@discord.ui.button(*, label=None, custom_id=None, disabled=False, style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2>, emoji=None, row=None)```
A decorator that attaches a button to a component.

The function being decorated should have three parameters, `self` representing the [`discord.ui.View`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View "discord.ui.View"), the [`discord.Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction") you receive and the [`discord.ui.Button`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.Button "discord.ui.Button") being pressed.

Note

Buttons with a URL cannot be created with this function. Consider creating a [`Button`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.Button "discord.ui.Button") manually instead. This is because buttons with a URL do not have a callback associated with them since Discord does not do any processing with it.

[slate swan]

How do you

how do you uhh

I'm not sure how to describe it

how do you layer the buttons? Like you have one button on top of the other

instead of them having the normal layout of moving it to the right?

[naive briar]

Set the row

[slate swan]

you use rows ( row kwarg in Button )

And how can I do that?

Nvm, figured it out. Thanks guys

Is it possible to make a button, but it doesn't do anything, and it's not clickable?

[naive briar]

Disable it

[slate swan]

thanks.

u can use ctx.me to represent the client
so it will be something like this ctx.me.display_avatar.url

Is it possible to leave a button blank?

No label?

[slate swan]

u can use railway.app

Does that offer a free tier?

[slate swan]

yup

[naive briar]

Yes

[slate swan]

How?

[naive briar]

Set \u200b as the label

[slate swan]

tysm

[slate swan]

Are you using it?

Yay it works!

Tysm catgal.

Is that unicode for a space?

[slate swan]

no i dont have any projects i need to host, i just run and test them locally

[naive briar]

Zero-width character

[slate swan]

mmm okay, thanks.

but railway.app does have a free tier with $5 credit per month the only setback is you have only 500 execution hours a month

[slate swan]

Its only free for 500 hr

[slate swan]

thats the only drawback in railway, other than railway i dont know any other free hosting sites

Okay

for railway.app you can either link a card to remove that limit or wait for the github student integration update and get a github student account and apply for that

[slate swan]

Git hub is launching a vps ?

How does this look?

[slate swan]

uh no i meant that you can wait for railway.app to launch an update which allows github accounts with student priviliges to bypass all limits, you will need a github student account tho for it

[slate swan]

ayo emoji lookin sus

Hmm okay

[slate swan]

😳

😉

[naive briar]

The button callback must have 2 parameters (or 3 including self)

[slate swan]

How do i get a person's icon url?

[naive briar]

First for interaction, second for the button

[slate swan]

Tourner dans le vide, vide
Tourner dans le vide, vide
Tourner dans le vide, il me fait tourner

[slate swan]

avatar.url

[slate swan]

Alright, thanks.

[naive briar]

Normally what?

If it gives you an error

It's not

[naive briar]

The self is representing the class

It doesn't count as an argument

(don't spoonfeed, just saying)

Yes

[slate swan]

It's only one argument

Is there any way I can make this look more appealing? Also the colors may look bleak because I have Night Light Mode on at 90% strength so ignore that.

[slate swan]

what is this game? like the flushed emoji collects the apples?

[slate swan]

Snake and yes.

Then the flushed emoji grows

[dull terrace]

You still making snake?

[slate swan]

I am remaking it

I am trying to make everything more modular and more organized

[dull terrace]

I maintain that using pillow is the way to go

[slate swan]

Pillow seems so hard

It scares me, it's intimidating

Also your salt miners is very cool

[dull terrace]

It's not as hard as it looks

[short silo]

How to get full input/larger input through a command

[slate swan]

you can add a count for number of collected apples in the footer

[slate swan]

Okay

[dull terrace]

Wouldn't it make more sense to have a snake length counter though

[slate swan]

Okay, I'll experiment with it, I'll make 2 modes of snake, one with pillow, one without, and I'll see what my friends like more.

[short silo]

Anyone ? It gets cut off at 45 characters

[dull terrace]

Idk what you're asking Wolfy

[slate swan]

value should be same, so either way works

[dull terrace]

Like a string input?

[short silo]

yea, normal commands, string input

[dull terrace]

For a slash command?

[short silo]

no, just command

[dull terrace]

If you need more than 45 characters I would recommend using a modal

Idk how it's getting cut off if you're using message content commands though

[wicked atlas]

Maybe this will help

i have a question can anyone help?

in an exe file the task in if name == main is being looped again and again

nothing else is being executed

any reasons??

[rocky trench]

We don't have any code, we can't help

[supple ridge]

ah okey I'll send some snippets

First Ss :- The code Itself
Second Ss - How it looks in a py file (works perfectly fine)
Third Ss :- How it looks in an exe file (repeats The Enter your license iteration)

@rocky trench

[ruby valve]

@tasks.loop(seconds=180)
async def check_activity(ctx, member: Member, client):
    print("checking statuses")
    role = client.guild.get.role(1014853981752795217)

        await member.add_roles(role) 
        print(f"{member.name}#{member.discriminator} is repping")```

trying to make a bot that automatically gives a user a role if they have "cpr" in their status. I dont get any error but this code doesnt work any help would be appreciated

[rocky trench]

I feel like you can't use that in an exe

[naive briar]

!d discord.Member.activity

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.activity

property activity```
Returns the primary activity the user is currently doing. Could be `None` if no activity is being done.

Note

Due to a Discord API limitation, this may be `None` if the user is listening to a song on Spotify with a title longer than 128 characters. See [GH-1738](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/1738) for more information.

Note

A user may have multiple activities, these can be accessed under [`activities`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.activities "discord.Member.activities").

[fading marlin]

Client.guild doesn't exist, you probably have an error handler that's eating your errors

oo

[slate swan]

any ideas why i getting 400 error>?

full traceback?

[primal token]

Have you tried executing all of that in a function?

yea it loops

That's odd

[glad cove]

hey i need a bot that gets everyone's id inside of a server really fast

someone hacked the person that created the server

[rare echo]

have him change his password

[glad cove]

pretty sure the hacked already changed his password or smth

[vocal snow]

what are you going to do with their ids tho

[glad cove]

invite them to a new server

[slate swan]

bruh

[vocal snow]

you can't just send an invite link in a channel?

[slate swan]

not 100% of the people will join the new server or even have their dms open

unless you did something like what restorecord protected servers do, they take the members authorization to auto add them in a new server incase current is nuked

but its prolly too late now

[glad cove]

wdym with restorecord protected servers?

[rare echo]

its a bot

built around your current issue

[slate swan]

well there is a bot restorecord which just asks a new member which joins a server to verify by giving their authorization to the bot's application to auto add them in a new server incase the current one is nuked/destroyed

[sick birch]

message.author.roles to get all the roles of the person who sent that message

You only passed in 2 values but there are 3 %s

Also shouldn’t you be using aiosqlite’s ? Instead of %s?

To avoid SQL injection attacks?

[rare echo]

ah my bad, im trying to have the user @ a role and get it from that, not the actual author

[sick birch]

You’re looking for the RoleConverter then

[rare echo]

got it working, perfect thank you

[slate swan]

is it actually cloning ?

cause if it’s not cloning anything then output would be none

also check if that function even returns a channel

where is the code that is using the output variable? is it in the same function?

that’s why

You defined Output in a completely different function

is there a specific reason for you storing the channels tho?

otherwise if so you need to rethink your logic

no like why tho, why are you storing that data? is it explicitly necessary to

if you do not need that data I wouldn’t store it. if you need it, then go back to your code and rethink your logic

I would suggest creating the temp channels when they join the join2create channel rather than having them use a command

[ionic garden]

i have a hybrid command

how should i have the user be able to pass a time argument

[slate swan]

how to fix

[shrewd apex]

!pypi durations-nlp

[unkempt canyon]

durations-nlp v1.0.1

A python durations parsing library.

[shrewd apex]

ask them to enter a string

[ionic garden]

is that how everyone else does it?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

well atleast thats how i do it

[shrewd apex]

code?

[slate swan]

!pip time-str

[unkempt canyon]

time-str v1.0.0

A package to convert user input into datetime.timedelta objects

[slate swan]

@ionic garden easiest way for discord.py/forks ^

im not able sync commands (py cord)

[ionic garden]

better than durations-nlp?

[slate swan]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1028708904458272888/1028708941321994410/unknown.png

[slate swan]

yes , a lot in this case.

you just need to do ```py
async def command(ctx, argument: time_str.IntervalConverter):

[hushed coral]

await ctx.author.timeout(until=discord.utils.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=20))

Am I doing something wrong?

[naive briar]

You got an error?

[ionic garden]

btw does this follow conventions for project organization?

[hushed coral]

just not working

[slate swan]

check ur intents

!d discord.Member.timeout

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.timeout

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

Applies a time out to a member until the specified date time or for the given [`datetime.timedelta`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.timedelta "(in Python v3.10)").

You must have [`moderate_members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.moderate_members "discord.Permissions.moderate_members") to do this.

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.edit "discord.Member.edit").

[naive briar]

Oh yeah

[slate swan]

its a positional arg

yeah but that would produce some sort of error no?

[hushed coral]

await ctx.author.timeout(until=datetime.timedelta(seconds=20), reason=None)

[slate swan]

bad on_command_error moment

[hushed coral]

all on

[slate swan]

you can't do until= here! its a positional argument

also, if you have an on_command_error event add else: raise error to it

error being your exception class

[hushed coral]

so remove until=

[slate swan]

basically yes

[hushed coral]

ye idk still dont work

await ctx.author.timeout(datetime.timedelta(seconds=20), reason=None)

[shrewd apex]

[slate swan]

im using py cord and my slash commands aren't syncing in all the servers

[slate swan]

cuz very bad code ( from pycord)
can you see a folder named discord in your venv's site-packages folder?

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

ok before everything, try syncing the commands after the bot has started
basically add that await client.sync_commands thing in on_ready or something

[slate swan]

im literally doing that

you sure? you call load_commands before client.run() !?

[slate swan]

im talking about the sync_command inside your load_commands function, that shouldn't be there

[slate swan]

yeah i changed that already, i was trying different ways to just get it synced

so this is what ur code looks rn?

[slate swan]

okay then back here
open the discord folder
go in http.py
line 280
replace self.__session. with self._HTTPClient__session.

[slate swan]

in all the places?

just the line 280

also, what version of pycord are you using?

done

2.2.2

please try running the code now

so the error got fixed

what does register_commands return?

i mean what does the docs say about that

it registers all the commands of given list

Register a list of commands.

[broken granite]

does any1 know how to fix his error? AttributeError: 'Message' object has no attribute 'autor'

[rare echo]

author not autor

[broken granite]

oh am stupid af

[rare echo]

haha no worries

[slate swan]

well then it seems like no new commands were registered
is there any command in your code that didn't get added to discord?

i have 3 commands now and non of them are getting syncing

i can only use them in debug_guild server

[slate swan]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

oh thats the issue, when you have a debug_guild set commands get synced in them specifically, remove that kwarg from Bot class

for some reason the bot doesn't say anything back

[naive briar]

!d discord.Intents.message_content - you have to enable this intent

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.message\_content

Whether message content, attachments, embeds and components will be available in messages which do not meet the following criteria:

• The message was sent by the client

• The message was sent in direct messages

• The message mentions the client

This applies to the following events...

[sick birch]

You need to await aiohttp.request

It'd be better if you extracted things into their own variables

res = await aiohttp.request(...)
content = res.content

# use content here

[dull terrace]

is this an intriguing opening message for someone who uses my game bot for the first time

[rare echo]

yeah, i would suggest some discord formatting to make it look a little bit more "made" and not just plain text

[dull terrace]

that's what i was i feeling, but not sure what to do

maybe shove a image of a walkie talkie in the corner as an icon but idk how to "break up" the text some more

[sick birch]

looks like someone is really enjoying the bot

[dull terrace]

idk italics and bold doesn't look right

could do something more like this

[ionic garden]

so, a lot of my functions are like this:

        try:
            pass
        except discord.Forbidden:
            pass
        except discord.HTTPException:
            pass
```is there a way to use a decorator to have a write once, use everywhere kinda thing?

[mental hollow]

If you are going to pass all errors, why target specific ones? Just use something like this:

try:
    #your code
except:
    pass

[ionic garden]

Even then, is there a way to automatically wrap a function in a try except with a decorator?

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/paviwebucu

so uh
is there a way to display this error to the user

context:

    @commands.hybrid_command(name="mute", aliases=["timeout"])
    @commands.has_permissions(moderate_members=True)
    async def mute(self, ctx: commands.Context, user: discord.Member, time: str):

[fading marlin]

use an error handler

[velvet tinsel]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66374121/discord-py-error-handling-with-on-command-error should help.

[velvet tinsel]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[ionic garden]

I have to do that for every cpmmand?

[fading marlin]

no, you can have a global error handler

[velvet tinsel]

^^

I advise you use error handlers for specific functions (like kick, ban, timeout etc)

[winged coral]

Global handlers get passed the command object through context

I prefer checking the signature there if I want to handle them seperately

Less registering callbacks, not really a difference but less messy

[verbal hawk]

Hi, any idea of why would I get this error:
object has no attribute 'flatten'

I have numpy imported, I learnt python a long time ago and as I remember flatten() is in numpy

The actual line looks like this:
users = await new_message.reactions[0].users().flatten()

[fading marlin]

flatten method has been removed and replaced with async iterators

!d discord.Reaction.users

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction.users

async for ... in users(*, limit=None, after=None)```
Returns an [asynchronous iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator "(in Python v3.10)") representing the users that have reacted to the message.

The `after` parameter must represent a member and meet the [`abc.Snowflake`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Snowflake "discord.abc.Snowflake") abc.

Changed in version 2.0: `limit` and `after` parameters are now keyword-only.

Examples

Usage...

[verbal hawk]

ooooh I see, I'm not really knowledgeable in iterators, how could I replace it?

[fading marlin]

there's an example in the docs

[winged coral]

You can flatten it with an async list comp

The channel object is a string and not actually a channel object

I don't have time to read your code though

Oh nvm I see it

[cinder nacelle]

can you give an example of a channel object please

[winged coral]

It's an f string in your code

[verbal hawk]

Am I supposed to additionally import anything? I'm using the example line:

I get the error:

[winged coral]

!d discord.Interaction.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.channel

The channel the interaction was sent from.

Note that due to a Discord limitation, DM channels are not resolved since there is no data to complete them. These are PartialMessageable instead.

[winged coral]

You can access channel from the interaction directly

[winged coral]

That's unrelated to that snippet

It just doesn't exist at that code point

[cinder nacelle]

i want a staff member (hismodal class) to create a channel with the modal and the info to be saved in a csv file, and a normal user (mymodal class) can then enter a code given by a staff member and if guesses the code right then he gets permission to that channel

[winged coral]

I can't do all that for you. If you have specific issues I can help

Like I said before, your channel object is just a regular string

You can access the actual object using the property of Interaction

[cinder nacelle]

no i don't mean do all i just wanted to explain what i am trying to do sorry if it came over like that english is not my natural language

[winged coral]

No you're good don't worry

[cinder nacelle]

i tried with a id and it didn't work either

[winged coral]

You don't need to fetch the channel using an ID in this case

You can use the interaction object you receive through the callback which sets the channel property for you

[verbal hawk]

How would I need to declare reactions? users exists, and I've looked at several example codes and those only had users declared as well.

[winged coral]

Let's look back to your previous code

You're not setting a specific variable for a reaction

You're accessing the list via the message object

[cinder nacelle]

i have multiple "secret codes" and i don't think that that will work

[verbal hawk]

Oh I think I get it, can I ask here for any further help though if needed?

[winged coral]

Of course

[cinder nacelle]

i think you can just do interaction.user if i am not wrong

how to make a check so that if the author of the team has a role , then he cannot prescribe a command ??

[ionic garden]

how would i do that?

[fading marlin]

you register a new event/listener called on_command_error

[north escarp]

how to make a check so that if the author of the command has a role , then he cannot use the command ??

[fading marlin]

check interaction.user.roles

[cinder nacelle]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, ctx: commands.Context, e: commands.CommandError):
        await ctx.send("An unexpected error occurred!")
```like this?

[fading marlin]

sure

[slate swan]

don't do what you are doing rn tho

make sure to raise unhandled error so you get to know what the reason behind error wss

[ionic garden]

bruh

for some reason

the handler in this cog also handles errors coming from other cogs

[fading marlin]

because it's a global error handler. If you want a cog-specific error handler, override cog_command_error

[slate swan]

is that new?

!d discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_command_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog\_command\_error

await cog_command_error(ctx, error)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

A special method that is called whenever an error is dispatched inside this cog.

This is similar to [`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") except only applying to the commands inside this cog.

This **must** be a coroutine.

[slate swan]

seems nice

[ionic garden]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def cog_command_error(self, ctx: commands.Context, e: commands.CommandError):
        await ctx.reply("An unexpected fun error occurred!", ephemeral=True)

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cuyekoheka

oh no

[fading marlin]

I don't think so

[fading marlin]

it's not a listener, it's a cog method that you override. Remove the commands.Cog.listener

[slate swan]

its not an event, its a normal method

[ionic garden]

oh bruh

[rare echo]

so technically speaking can you not load another extension with a bunch of different global handlers for things like missing perms

or would you have to redirect the cog error to that

[fading marlin]

you can have a bunch of cogs that have listeners pointing to on_command_error

that's the beauty of listeners :p

[ionic garden]

anyway to register an event inside of a class

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ewezodowaw

^ or is this the intended way

[fading marlin]

you can do that, or override on_command_error in your bot subclass

also, don't sync in setup_hook/on_ready. It can rate limit you quite quickly

[patent wagon]

can somone log into my Discord dev portal using my bot token

[fading marlin]

no

[patent wagon]

can they do anyting with it?

[fading marlin]

they can do stuff with your bot (log in to your bot and bring havoc (probably))

[ionic garden]

where do i do it then?

[patent wagon]

im giving my dc bot to somone else so they can host is

is there any way to somnehow lock a file in wich token will be stored

how to make a check so that the command can be used only in one chat ??

[slate swan]

!custom-check

[unkempt canyon]

Custom Command Checks in discord.py

Often you may find the need to use checks that don't exist by default in discord.py. Fortunately, discord.py provides discord.ext.commands.check which allows you to create you own checks like this:

from discord.ext.commands import check, Context

def in_any_channel(*channels):
  async def predicate(ctx: Context):
    return ctx.channel.id in channels
  return check(predicate)

This check is to check whether the invoked command is in a given set of channels. The inner function, named predicate here, is used to perform the actual check on the command, and check logic should go in this function. It must be an async function, and always provides a single commands.Context argument which you can use to create check logic. This check function should return a boolean value indicating whether the check passed (return True) or failed (return False).

The check can now be used like any other commands check as a decorator of a command, such as this:

@bot.command(name="ping")
@in_any_channel(728343273562701984)
async def ping(ctx: Context):
  ...

This would lock the ping command to only be used in the channel 728343273562701984. If this check function fails it will raise a CheckFailure exception, which can be handled in your error handler.

[slate swan]

exactly what u need

[limber ocean]

Can somebody give me some code for a simple discord bot with a function of your choice?

[north escarp]

@slate swan is there something more understandable?

how to make a check so that the command can be used only in one chat ??

[sick birch]

sure

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples
I have given you about 30 here, take your pick

You need to convert the response object into a JSON first

Use await response.json()

[north escarp]

@sick birch how to make a check so that the command can be used only in one chat ??

[sick birch]

Then you can subscript the resultant dict

[sick birch]

[sick birch]

@north escarp ^^^

[north escarp]

@in_any_channel(728343273562701984)
you just need to add this to the team and that 's it ?

[sick birch]

no it's a custom check

You need to create the predicate first

You can also modify the predicate a little bit so it only accepts one ID

[north escarp]

from discord.ext.commands import check, Context

def in_any_channel(*channels):
  async def predicate(ctx: Context):
    return ctx.channel.id in channels
  return check(predicate)```
stop it needs to be written in a separate class from the commands or what ?

[sick birch]

it doesn't need to be in a class

it can even be top level if needed

[ionic garden]

hey uh, if i don't do it here, then where should i do it?

[ionic garden]

how do i take in a discord channel as an argument

[sick birch]

@bot.command()
async def my_command(ctx: commands.Context, channel: discord.TextChannel) -> None:
  # channel is a discord.TextChannel instance

You can mention the channel or provide it's ID

[ionic garden]

wb other channels?

do i have to consider all these things as well?

[sick birch]

A typehint of discord.TextChannel would only try to convert text channels, other types will error

If you want to consider the other types you can use the typing.Union[]

[ionic garden]

should i though

context: making a lockdown command

[sick birch]

No, only typehint the ones your command should work on

E.g if your command sends a message to another channel, a text channel would be appropriate

If your command joins the bot into a VC, a VoiceChannel typehint would be appropriate

[sick birch]

A text channel would be most appropriate. Consider if you want to lockdown other channels, like forums, stage channels, or even voice channels

[ionic garden]

uh

didn't python recently introduce using the pipe operator
as well?

[sick birch]

If you're on that version feel free to use it

I just mentioned the union because I know not everyone is on that version

[fading marlin]

make a message command that syncs slash commands

[ionic garden]

that seems kinda hacky?

[upbeat gust]

nope it's what everyone in the discord.py server recommends

How is it hacky?

[ionic garden]

i mean i should implement a check for if the user is a dev, right?

[upbeat gust]

Yes

[ionic garden]

so a if ctx.author.id is in [asdf]?

[upbeat gust]

No is, just x in y

[ionic garden]

yeah had a lapse

[ionic garden]

so i grouped TextChannel & ForumChannel & got this:
TypeError: Union type of channels must be entirely made up of channels

[slate swan]

can you show your code?

[ionic garden]

just uh

t.Union[discord.TextChannel, discord.ForumChannel]

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

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

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

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

[ionic garden]

what's the full traceback?

[fading marlin]

!intent

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

[fading marlin]

you should be able to solve indentation errors by yourself, it's basic python

[slate swan]

    if msg.lower().startswith("?hi"):
    ^
IndentationError: expected an indented block

[ionic garden]

maybe indent everything w/ 4 spaces instead?

lemme try

worked thank you.

[stable path]

I must be an idiot I don’t understand how to implement it. It keeps saying that discord doesn’t have ext.

[fading marlin]

[stable path]

I do not.

[median flint]

How do I mention a role?

[rare echo]

in what sense?

with the id? or?

[median flint]

I have a command that uses a role as one of its parameters, pyasync def tag(ctx, amount, role:discord.Role, *, message = ""):

and I can't figure out how to mention the role

[median flint]

is it possible like this?

[rare echo]

role.mention?

[median flint]

tried that

it just didn't work, no error, no nothing

[rare echo]

where did you put it?

[median flint]

@client.command()
async def tag(ctx, amount, role:discord.Role, *, message = ""):
  if await check_lock():
    return False
  try:
    amount = int(amount)
  except ValueError:
    await ctx.send("<amount> Must be a full number", delete_after=15)
  for i in range(amount):
    await ctx.send(f"{role}{message}")```

I also tried using an f""

but that didnt work

[rare echo]

why are you using .format like that?

[median flint]

I was just trying something else

[rare echo]

you can just
await ctx.send(f”{role.mention} {message}”)

my b on mobile can’t really format properly

[median flint]

np

I'll try again but it didn't seem to work the first time

[rare echo]

i think there’s a different issue then, mind taking a screenshot so i can see the layout?

[rare echo]

for your try and except you can just take in amount as an int

amount : int

as for the mention unless you already tried {role.mention} i’m not exactly sure what the issue is

[median flint]

Yeah I have tried the role.mention

i have no clue whats wrong with it

anyways thanks man

[rare echo]

what is check_lock?

or what relevance does that have

[sick birch]

amount might be 0

Also you can typehint amount: int as an int

[rare echo]

ahh yeah didn’t consider that

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.

[rich oxide]

I fixed @maiden fable

[supple ridge]

@maiden fable oi mate, is there any way to obfuscate code without pyarmor? like any alternative?

[unkempt canyon]

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: applied mute to @slate swan until <t:1665378965:f> (10 minutes) (reason: mentions rule: sent 8 mentions in 10s).

The <@&831776746206265384> have been alerted for review.

[supple ridge]

cause with pyarmor im getting this error continuosly:-

https://paste.nextcord.dev/?id=1665377768450150

whereas in a src code everything seems to work fine

[slate swan]

here is one.
https://liftoff.github.io/pyminifier/

[supple ridge]

I'll check ty

[maiden fable]

Well, you can use nuitka to compile it to C code, or use Cython. But tbh, if u wanna obfuscate, either use pyarmor and kind or convert it to C
The question is more suited for #c-extensions imho

[slate swan]

why obfuscate a discord bot tho just curious

[supple ridge]

ah okey

[supple ridge]

nah its just i wanna check some things but it isn't working

[slate swan]

True that’s kinda weird

[dusky kraken]

!unittest

[kind trellis]

How can I make an argument be a true or false statement? For a slash command

[wraith pendant]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Bot is up.")

I used to run this at the beginning of my bot to notify me when the bot is up. I don't know what changed, but it doesn't work anymore.

It doesn't raise an error, it just doesn't work.

[kind trellis]

Did you migrate to 2.0?

[wraith pendant]

yes

[kind trellis]

The token area got changed. It uses asyncio.run() now

[rich oxide]

ps i reccomend @bot.event

[meager chasm]

Whats the difference

[rich oxide]

Client it easyier to get rate limited

Bot your less likely

[meager chasm]

No lol

Who told you that

[rich oxide]

happens to me

i figured myself

btw i wanna add econmy cmmds but idk how

[meager chasm]

That's not how it works

discord.Client and commands.Bot are the same, just that commands.Bot has support for making commands easily

[meager chasm]

Do you know how to use database?

[wraith pendant]

example?

[kind trellis]

In the docs, maybe?

Under the migration section

[slate swan]

can someone explain how cooldown in hybrid commands work or refer me to their docs

[slate swan]

nothing like that is important
mind showing full code?

[slate swan]

you need to use the commands.cooldown decorator

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=discord.ext.commands.BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`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") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[tough lance]

Is there an alternative of Bot.get_context for inter class? (disnake)

[slate swan]

don't think so, you get context from message class, but interaction is a discord class in itself

[slate swan]

if i use this i get an application not respond error

[slate swan]

yes because you need to send a response for the interaction even if its on cooldown

make an error handler

if i add a interaction argument it just says this

wait give me 1 minute

The application did not respond

@whitelist.error
    async def on_whitelist_error(self, interaction:discord.Interaction, error):
        if isinstance(interaction,error,commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"Command is on cooldown, you can use it after {round(error.retry_after, 2)} seconds.",ephemeral=True)
            ``` something like this? @slate swan

why would it be an interaction in a hybrid command

you get context for hybrid commands

but it will throw applicaiton not responding if i throw Context as an argument

@slate swan

no it wont. use ctx.send to create a response inside the error event

wait then

@whitelist.error
    async def on_whitelist_error(self, ctx:Context, error):
        if isinstance(ctx,error,commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            await ctx.send(f"Command is on cooldown, you can use it after {round(error.retry_after, 2)} seconds.")
            

your isinstance statement is faulty

what should it be then?

if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown) ...

wait

it works now thanks man!

[rich oxide]

no

[meager chasm]

https://sqlbolt.com

[rich oxide]

ah okay

thx.

[stable path]

How would I get this to store what the user said?

Because I plan on storing the trigger and using regex to isolate the number after the +.

Then incorporate it into the final calculation to return the number with the modifier applied.

[vocal snow]

what do you mean "store what the user said?"

[stable path]

Like make it a variable.

So I can put what they said into a variable.

[vocal snow]

!d discord.Client.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

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

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

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

[vocal snow]

I'm assuming you're looking for this

[stable path]

Not really since that’s an additional reply from the user I want it to be able to take one prompt and be able to use it from there.

Cause rn the biggest issue is the variable modifiers.

[slate swan]

anyone know how i can have on_message and commands work at the same time

[manic kernel]

course you can, you just need to add a single line at the end of the on_message to process it as a command
await bot.process_commands(message)

or alternatively use a listener

[warm lava]

I need help

what is the importance of cogs?

[manic kernel]

allows you to easily partition your bot into multiple parts and load/unload them as required
also helps you NOT have a 50k line file as your bot grows and new features are introduced

the so called "modularity" of discord bots

[upbeat gust]

also groups into categories which can be seen from the help cmd

[slate swan]

bot wont even recognized this and... no errors nothing

is there something wrong

[upbeat gust]

is this cog loaded

[slate swan]

yeah

[upbeat gust]

Do you have the members intent

[upbeat gust]

what is member.user supposed to be

[slate swan]

yeah

[upbeat gust]

Can you show me

[slate swan]

i load everything

[upbeat gust]

Show intents

[upbeat gust]

No you don't

you only have default + presences

[slate swan]

doesn't members come in default

[upbeat gust]

No

[naive briar]

No

It's an privileged intent

[slate swan]

ok

let me try again

[upbeat gust]

^ this also doesn't exist

str(member) returns the full username + discrim though fyi

[slate swan]

and it works

[slate swan]

!custom-check

[unkempt canyon]

Custom Command Checks in discord.py

Often you may find the need to use checks that don't exist by default in discord.py. Fortunately, discord.py provides discord.ext.commands.check which allows you to create you own checks like this:

from discord.ext.commands import check, Context

def in_any_channel(*channels):
  async def predicate(ctx: Context):
    return ctx.channel.id in channels
  return check(predicate)

This check is to check whether the invoked command is in a given set of channels. The inner function, named predicate here, is used to perform the actual check on the command, and check logic should go in this function. It must be an async function, and always provides a single commands.Context argument which you can use to create check logic. This check function should return a boolean value indicating whether the check passed (return True) or failed (return False).

The check can now be used like any other commands check as a decorator of a command, such as this:

@bot.command(name="ping")
@in_any_channel(728343273562701984)
async def ping(ctx: Context):
  ...

This would lock the ping command to only be used in the channel 728343273562701984. If this check function fails it will raise a CheckFailure exception, which can be handled in your error handler.

[north escarp]

how can I add an error message here ?

def in_any_channel(*channels):
        async def predicate(ctx: Context):
            return ctx.channel.id in channels
        return check(predicate)```

[still elbow]

if statement, if ctx.channel.id in channels, use else for the error. If channels is an list, you may have to iterate through it. not 100% sure

[north escarp]

            if ctx.channel.id in channels:
                embed = discord.Embed(description = 'Вы уже прошли верефикацию', colour=0xF1C40F)
                await ctx.send_message(embed=embed)```
is that what you need ?

[still elbow]

no

[still elbow]

def in_any_channel(*channels):
        async def predicate(ctx: Context):
          if ctx.channel.id in channels:
            return ctx.channel.id in channels
          else:
            ## error here ##
        return check(predicate)

[north escarp]

and that is, write the message after else ?

[still elbow]

Error there

[slate swan]

Do people learn coding discord bots just as a hobby?

[north escarp]

@still elbow thanks for the help

[rare echo]

most of us sure, some use it to learn, others might be paid

[patent wagon]

If someone steals my bots token can they : a)harm my account (log into my account b)log into discord developer portal

[paper sluice]

If someone gets your bot token, they can control your bot. You can regenerate your bot token in the dev portal if it has been leaked.

[pastel basin]

  file = File(fp=background.image_bytes, filename="wlcbg.jpg")

  welcome_embed = discord.Embed(description=f"Hii {member.mention}! Welcome To **{member.guild.name}**")
  welcome_embed.set_image(url="attachment://wlcbg.jpg")```

how can i set local image in my embed?

right now i can only see the description of embed

and i get no error and the image doesnt show up

[honest shoal]

should be discord.File

and make sure you are providing the correct path

[sick birch]

Building it from ground up with JSON was probably not a good idea then, eh?

It's just None, not None()

[primal token]

None, True and False are all singleton unpolymorphic instances that cant be called!

[slate swan]

is it possible to run multiple bots with the same project ?.

[sick birch]

sure but why

[slate swan]

i want to run 3 of my bots with the same project , to use them at the same time

can you learn me how to do it ?

[sick birch]

You can run them at once but I don't see why it has to be in the same project

[vale wing]

Why can't you run 3 different processes

[sick birch]

Run them as seperate processes in different project directories

Much easier than trying to fiddle around with threading or multiprocessing

[slate swan]

i know but my objectif is to run them in one project 🙂😃

[sick birch]

Right, but why?

[vale wing]

Objective doesn't come out of nowehere

[slate swan]

easier to run , a single activity ...

[sick birch]

[vale wing]

^

[sick birch]

It's not really easier to run, harder to create, and you won't have a single "activity"

[vale wing]

Activity is android term

[sick birch]

What would be easier to run is to have each of your bots in their own container, then run docker-compose up and start up all 3 bots at once

[slate swan]

bro why you don't want to tell me how to do it 🙂

[sick birch]

Because it's not worth the effort, I'm just trying to save you some headache

[slate swan]

but i want to learn it 😃

[vale wing]

Learn docker?

[sick birch]

Docker is probably better to learn than threading IMO

One of the most widely used DevOps tools

[slate swan]

._.*

[vale wing]

Threading is important too ofc but not for this case

[sick birch]

I can see why you want to learn it, threading and multiprocessing are both important, but they're not always used, and only used in certain cases. This is not one of those cases, you don't need threading here. If you do want to learn about it, RealPython has a good article you can use to learn threading: https://realpython.com/intro-to-python-threading/

[honest laurel]

You want to run 3 different bots (different tokens) or 3 instances of the same bot?

[slate swan]

3 different bots 😃

[sick birch]

Either way it comes down to the same thing

[honest laurel]

Run multiple processes yeah

[sick birch]

It's usually easier to learn something when applied to a project that could benifit from said concept

[honest laurel]

With one bot it's a bit more complicated and only needed if you're hitting cpu limit

[sick birch]

When you try to apply something to a project that does not benefit, it just makes it harder to learn

[vale wing]

Sadly my docker guide PR hasn't gotten merged yet

[sick birch]

😳

Thanks for the reminder

[vale wing]

I can link a bit of outdated version tho it doesn't differ that much
