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.

[honest shoal]

I may not respond later coz it's midnight here

will go to sleep anytime soon

the value is not an integer in string that's what I can say from error

arg

whatever you're trying to convert into integer is not an integer like thing

[feral frost]

anyone got an easy database ?

thing

[slate swan]

import discord
import random
from discord.ext import commands
from discord_slash import SlashCommand



bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", description = "test")
slash = SlashCommand(bot, sync_commands = True)```

Import "discord_slash" could not be resolved

how to fix ?

[honest shoal]

discord.py now supports slash command

remove that 3rd party lib.

why not copy paste

images are hard to read

[slate swan]

ho ok

can help?

The errors are a lot more descriptive and helpful than you may think

[honest shoal]

hold on

[slate swan]

and how can I add something like this where the user has to enter something?

@honest shoal

where are the functions?

[honest shoal]

@slate swan I guess the error is not in that command

it's somewhere later probably

are you using pycord?

[slate swan]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

weird

I'm really bad at bot discord so I didn't really understand

This code could be so much shorter.

[primal token]

4 nested functions, have you not considered readability with your codebase?

[cloud dawn]

Well I'm seeing some very repetitive code 👀

[primal token]

You really should consider readability and speed with your codebase to get better over "making it work"

How did you invoked the slash command?

why ?

ha yes sorry I forget every time

[primal token]

How do you use the slashcommand?

with the according arguments?

[primal token]

You should use aiohttp as requests is blocking, why is your payload named html and you can just use the json method the response body and you need to check if the response body isnt an error, so check the HTTP status code

you need to mention the channel

It seems to be a conversion error with your announcementchannel parameter, it seems like you passed a string

No, I'm pretty sure its an error with the conversion of the value given to the announcementchannel argument, as dpy converts the value given to the argument to a base 10 int and passes it to a dataclass

Yeah sorry, but the issue still applies

[north escarp]

how do I make the team see the error handler that is in another file ?

[primal token]

It's not something wrong with your code, have you tried supplying another value like another id of a textchannel?

Yeah, I'm correct, you're passing a string into announcementchannel!

Add the typehint again and pass a valid textchannel

[north escarp]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_commands_error(self, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
            embed = discord.Embed(description = 'Вы не являетесь администратором', colour=0xF1C40F)
            await self.ctx.send(embed=embed)
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
            embed = discord.Embed(description = 'Вы не указали аргумент', colour=0xF1C40F)
            await self.ctx.send(embed=embed)```

why is this command handler not working ?

[primal token]

The converter of dpy and its forks convert the value passed to the argument and type given in this case its TextChannel, by parsing the value, in this case it would parse a mention or it would just use the snowflake passed

[primal token]

it's on_command_error*

and youre missing an argument which would be the error

[north escarp]

I fixed it and it still doesn't work

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
            embed = discord.Embed(description = 'Вы не являетесь администратором', colour=0xF1C40F)
            await self.ctx.send(embed=embed)```

the team has only admin rights, and the bot does not issue that message

[north escarp]

that is?
I don't understand what you mean

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
            embed = discord.Embed(description = 'Вы не являетесь администратором', colour=0xF1C40F)
            await self.ctx.send(embed=embed)
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
            embed = discord.Embed(description = 'Вы не указали аргумент', colour=0xF1C40F)
            await self.ctx.send(embed=embed)```

why is this command handler not working ?

[slate swan]

look at the docs

your missing an argument

[north escarp]

if I understood these docs, I would not ask but look at them myself...

[slate swan]

i mean if u would look at them u would understand what is wrong

on_command_error(self, something_else_goes_here, error).

or just spoonfeed

[faint mural]

sorry

[north escarp]

@slate swan I have tried many times to understand this documentation and it has not brought any results except aggression on the person who wrote it.

[slate swan]

but its a simple fix if you literally just compares urs to the docs?

you obviously aren't looking

there is a difference in asking for help and then just asking ppl to fix your problems and spoofeed u code.

[north escarp]

When I look into it, I have even more questions.

[slate swan]

.

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=on_command_error#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error

[north escarp]

on_command_error(ctx, error)
The first thing I see is this

[slate swan]

yes

[primal token]

Thats like hating an author of a book because you cant read? In this case you need to know about OOP, Asynchronous programming and their implementations in python

[north escarp]

and I don 't see where it says there about
on_command_error(self, something_else_goes_here, error)

[north escarp]

there is such a thing as examples. We haven't heard of it in the python documentation

[north escarp]

there is documentation that is so well written that it does not even require knowledge of the language

[primal token]

There isnt examples in some abstractions as they're easy to understand while complex abstractions do possess examples

[primal token]

Maybe that documentation shouldn't be read in the first place?

[north escarp]

the only examples that are there are embed and then they are hidden

[slate swan]

ok either ur just copying someones broken code or you do not understand python basics. maybe both idk. we gave u the answers and u refuse to try to understand them and just want someone to tell u

[primal token]

Maybe you havent browsed the documentation deeply?

[north escarp]

to understand it, you must have a minimum of 10 years of experience

[slate swan]

ur trolling

I have my bot in 2 servers. On the one server, i press on a button and on the other, the bot adds to me a role. The problem is that the bot adds to me the role but at the same time i get error "Missing Permissions". Why's that?

[north escarp]

stop talking in abbreviations

[slate swan]

is it just adding a role?

[slate swan]

yeah but I also have interaction.response to the button which the bot doesnt send and I get error as "Missing Permissions"

is the bot missing any perms from that channel?

[primal token]

If you learn extremely slowly that would be correct

[slate swan]

nope

well according to traceback

its missing perms to add the role

[north escarp]

@slate swan@primal tokenPython documentation is not created for beginners, but for those who already understand.

[sick birch]

The documentation in itself is really not that hard. It tells you all the methods, which class they belong to, what arguments they take, what they return, and the types of everything

Discord.py is also typed quite well so your IDE will usually "self document"

[faint mural]

Hellow,

i am a bit confused about spotify.start|end|duration.
The bar is always filled ;-; ```py
passed = passed.total_seconds()
draw.rectangle((400, 150, 1000, 180), fill=(255, 255, 255), outline=(255, 255, 255))

# 1.0 195.191 195.191 2022-10-22 20:45:46.962000+00:00 2022-10-22 20:42:31.771000+00:00
percentage = passed / (end - start).total_seconds()
print(percentage, passed, (end - start).total_seconds(), end, start)
draw.rectangle((400, 150, 400 + (600 * percentage), 180), fill=color, outline=color)

[sick birch]

Might be a better question for #media-processing

[faint mural]

gotcha

[primal token]

It depends on what you're talking about, either way its your opinion and it's completely subjective

[north escarp]

for me, the concept of documentation is a place where they don't just say to do it this way. And where there are examples. When you study at school in a math textbook there are examples of how to solve an example or a problem

[primal token]

Documentations generally have examples maybe youre looking at the wrong part of it, e.g the reference of it

[north escarp]

I have this opinion for a reason. I am before I start to study python in depth. I played with JS and there the documentation was clear to such an extent that I didn't even need to know the language to write anything

[primal token]

This isnt an issue with python, it depends on the documentation and there format

[sick birch]

to be fair

discord.py documentation is generally known to not be up to par as some of the others

[north escarp]

I wonder what kind of documentation you took it from. Come up with yourself xD

[slate swan]

.......

[slate swan]

not in your case lmao

[sick birch]

Though of course discord.py users are biased and will deny it 😛

[slate swan]

plot twist. im a disnake user. this guy just wants code spoon fed to him

[north escarp]

and complain to the administration if they are called fools

[faint mural]

Sorry for the ping, but this channel feels somewhat dead

[north escarp]

to be explained this way in your life. And that is, just to come with age.

[north escarp]

and why with this problem you need to write not here. This, as I understand it, is related to discord bot ?

[faint mural]

It is from the class discord.Spotify

[north escarp]

got it

[slate swan]

how are u updating it?

or does it just start completely filled?

[faint mural]

starts at: draw.rectangle((400, 150, 1000, 180), fill=(255, 255, 255), outline=(255, 255, 255))
updates at: draw.rectangle((400, 150, 400 + (600 * percentage), 180), fill=color, outline=color)

Whitebg, green duration (old image before refactoring )

[slate swan]

i would assume ur math is off somewhere if it is always filled? or the data you are getting is incorrect

[faint mural]

        buffer = await ctx.wrap(
            create_spotify_canvas,
            spotify.title,

        image: BinaryIO,

) -> BinaryIO:

[slate swan]

u using passed to fill it?

[north escarp]

how did you figure out exactly how to calculate the pixels of a picture in this way and in general ??

[faint mural]

Testing and documentation, anyways I use passed = passed.total_seconds() / (end - start).total_seconds() to get the percentage

[zealous jay]

Is this a problem?

[2022-10-22 17:23:46] [INFO    ] discord.gateway: Shard ID None has successfully RESUMED session 24c91643519fceb4b874f3223bbd1710.

I get that on the console every once in a while

[glad cradle]

no

[zealous jay]

its normal?

[glad cradle]

yes

[zealous jay]

oh ok

thanks

[slate swan]

What would be wrong with this? i do the command and i just turns of the bot

how can I print all channels?

[slate swan]

guild.channels

[slate swan]

def restart_bot(): 
  os.execv(sys.executable, ['python'] + sys.argv)

@client.command()
async def restart(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Restarting bot...")
  restart_bot()

whats the error

[slate swan]

@slate swan it returns this

[slate swan]

well yea guild.channels return a list of channels that belong to the guild

how would I return it different

1, 2 or
1
2

u would need to iterate through them

idk how to do that and ive tried alr and got it wrong

[cloud dawn]

Why is that a function?

[slate swan]

ion know

[simple kettle]

For some reason all my commands dont work and they return no error

[faint mural]

Do you have an on_message event?

[simple kettle]

nope

[faint mural]

So what else did you change, before they stopped working?

[simple kettle]

it never worked

making a support bot for my main bot

and even a simple command will not respond

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.channel.send("pong")

nothing happens

[faint mural]

Do you have the message content intent enabled?

[slate swan]

Nvm :), i was just debugging it lol

[simple kettle]

for some reason when i try to do intents.message_content = True it says message_content does not exist

i think its cause im not on discord.py 2.0

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("pong")

[simple kettle]

it works either way

[faint mural]

Consider updating then

[simple kettle]

i guess i could but this makes no sense, my official bot is not on 2.0 but it works just fine

let me try to change the token and see what happens

[faint mural]

again, check your intents

1. Developer portal
2. message_content = True

[simple kettle]

i fixed it, on the developer portal i turned on all intents i changed no code

i needed this one

idk why

[faint mural]

I can still recommend you updating your bot

[bright wedge]

you fix that?

[frank pollen]

hey anyone knows how to update the print? like not printing with new line, it print at same line it will just update old print

[bright wedge]

try something like that!,

import sys
import time
steps = 10
print("Total steps: "+str(steps),end=' ')
time.sleep(1)
for i in range(steps):
    sys.stdout.flush()
    print("\rStep "+str(i+1)+"/"+str(steps),end=' ')
    time.sleep(1)
print("")#to change the current line

NOTE: its old code

[frank pollen]

uhh

[lucid kite]

is this actual discord bot code? doesnt seem to be in the right channel

[south coyote]

where can i get a dictionary of intents?

[lucid kite]

like a dict of all the intents available?

or just the meaning of them

[wary crystal]

You could pass end to print with an empty string, the default end is \n which is why it prints on a new-line so just change that

!e ```py
def example() -> None:
print("foo", end="")
print("bar", end="")

example()

[unkempt canyon]

@wary crystal :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

foobar

[frank pollen]

okay tysm

[south coyote]

all of them

a good list

[wary crystal]

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(value=0, **kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

New in version 1.5.

[wary crystal]

Go to this link, and it'll have all the intents listed under it

It'll also explain what the specific intent is for

[lucid kite]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents

[south coyote]

no i mean like a dictionary of responses

premade

https://github.com/coffee-tonight/chatbot_tflearn/blob/main/intents.json

[wicked atlas]

Isn't that one right there?

[south coyote]

yeah just found it

are there others?

[hushed galleon]

definitely not what we were thinking when you asked for intents...

[south coyote]

lol

[wicked atlas]

Not sure. Asking about this kind of intents in this chat is a little misleading though, because we all thought you were asking about discord intents

[south coyote]

my bad im learning

[slate swan]

this is not the same as discord intents

[mighty pilot]

i have a button menu that pops up for people to select a role at a certain level, do you guys think itd look better for the button to be greyed out after selecting it or to just delete the menu after selection

[slate swan]

depends. will the button be used again? if not just delete the view

[mighty pilot]

each menu only gets used once. follow up question then, when a button is selected i send an ephemeral message, will that still work

[slate swan]

yes

[mighty pilot]

sweet

[slate swan]

you can actually delete ephemeral messages now as well

[mighty pilot]

idek when that would be useful lmao

[lucid kite]

for sure

[hushed galleon]

you could argue that removing the view is a more motion jerky approach since it significantly changes the size of the message

[mighty pilot]

yea thats true. i guess ill see how it looks before committing to it becuase it is 3 buttons on different rows

[timid pawn]

Hello guys, i need an help with a discord_bot i'm working on

This is my code:

email_checker = [
  '.com', '.net', '.ru', '.co', '.bru', '.dme', '.me', '.nik', '.email'
]

if message.channel.name == "bot-test" and message.content == '/verify':
      sender = message.author
      msg = f'Hi {sender},  Please provide your email for verification'
      
      overwrites = {
        message.guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=False),
        sender: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=True),
        self.user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=True)
      }

      ticket_channel = await message.guild.create_text_channel(f'{sender} verification', overwrites=overwrites)
      await ticket_channel.send(msg)

      def check(message):
        for email_suffix in email_checker:
          if message.content.endswith(email_suffix) and message.channel==ticket_channel:
            return message.content == "Starting your verification"

So i created a ticket channel to interact with a user, i need to be able to listen for messages after have created the ticket from the user, in the check function, i need to be able to be able to loop the email checker so i can listen for the specific type of message to be returned. And i don't think that is possible or a right implementation, i am open to your suggested implementation

[south coyote]

how do i make my bot only respond to every 5th message

or sleep between responses

i have it set to respond to every message but that is too much

[timid pawn]

asyncio.sleep()

[south coyote]

can you show me what that looks like in a line of code

[timid pawn]

you just have to input asyncio.sleep(seconds) at where you want the sleep or pause to be

[south coyote]

if message.content.startswith(""):
        response = chatbot.request(message.content[10:])
        await message.channel.send(response)```

that's what i have right now

[violet kraken]

hi guys, in discord.py v2 when i say view=Buttons() to display the buttons in the Buttons class, is there a way to exclude a button? so to not display that?

[south coyote]

thanks!

NameError: name 'asyncio' is not defined

[timid pawn]

can anyone help with this

[south coyote]

okay so i have to import asyncio

it's not waiting though

[timid pawn]

yep

you need to input the amount of seconds the wait should be

[south coyote]

yeah i did that

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return

    if message.content.startswith(""):
        response = chatbot.request(message.content[10:])     
        await message.channel.send(response)
        await asyncio.sleep(600)

is there something that will make it sleep with each response?

[upbeat gust]

Can I ask why?

Why isn't this a seperate view

[violet kraken]

becouse sometime i'll need all of the buttons and sometime just a few

it depends on the current event

can i include 2 views?

[upbeat gust]

why are u using on_message to make 'slash commands'

[upbeat gust]

No

You could however use a button subclass

view = View()
view.add_item(buttonOne())

.send(view=view)```

[violet kraken]

i'm so confused about what im seeing

what is that adding 2 views togheter?

[timid pawn]

im using the discord.Client

[upbeat gust]

it's not

It's an empty view, that you add buttons to

Instead of having a view that already has buttons

[violet kraken]

that would be useless

[upbeat gust]

is this using wait_for?

[upbeat gust]

..how so?

[violet kraken]

as i understood its like if i have a variable cald apple with the value of 5 and then i create another one called apple_2 = apple and use apple 2 instead of apple

whats the point

[upbeat gust]

what-

[violet kraken]

still same resoult

[timid pawn]

i need to make the wait for event message.content be able to check if any of the email_checker values ends the message.content and the run a function when i get the message.content

[violet kraken]

i'm cloning the view

same buttons atached

[upbeat gust]

how is this related to what I said

[violet kraken]

i don't know tbh, this is what i understood

[upbeat gust]

can you just describe what you want to do again

I'm understanding that you have multiple buttons, and you want to choose which of these to show up

[violet kraken]

exactly

like this bot

once i press hit one button disappears

becouse its not supposed to be there anymore

[upbeat gust]

so you'd create an empty view

then check conditions and add each button accordingly

[violet kraken]

how do i add each button

witouth adding them all

[upbeat gust]

.

buttonOne here is an instance of ui.Button

[violet kraken]

let me understand the Buttonone is the button not the class'

ohhh i throught it was the whole class

since i called my buttons

[upbeat gust]

it is a whole class

You're referring to a view

[violet kraken]

then how do i specify wich buttons from that class to attach to the new view

if i attach them all there is no point

[upbeat gust]

can you show your current code

[violet kraken]

its pretty long, i can make a pastebin if you want

[upbeat gust]

Here's an eg of what you'd do

class CounterButton(discord.ui.Button):
  def __init__(self, label='0', **kwargs):
    super().__init__(label=label, **kwargs)
    self.counter = 0

  async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    self.counter += 1
    self.label = self.counter
    await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self.view)

view = discord.ui.View()
view.add_item(CounterButton(style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary))
view.add_item(CounterButton(style=discord.ButtonStyle.success))
view.add_item(CounterButton(style=discord.ButtonStyle.danger))

await ctx.send('Click counter button below', view=view)

[south coyote]

how do i get my bot to wait ten minute between responses?

[upbeat gust]

just sleep for 10 mins?

[south coyote]

no its not working

[upbeat gust]

Check the order-

[south coyote]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return

    if message.content.startswith(""):
        response = chatbot.request(message.content[10:])     
        await message.channel.send(response)
        await asyncio.sleep(600)

[upbeat gust]

Read your own code

[south coyote]

i know its out of order but why does everybody else get help but not me

[upbeat gust]

because this is a really really simple issue you should be able to solve yourself

[violet kraken]

he definetly does not know this is why he's not telling you

[south coyote]

if i could solve it myself i wouldnt be here

[upbeat gust]

??

[upbeat gust]

look at the last two lines

Tell me what each line does

[south coyote]

if message:
        response = chatbot.request(message.content)
        await asyncio.sleep(600)     
    
    await message.channel.send(response)
    

like that

[timid pawn]

@upbeat gust responded to your message

[upbeat gust]

Yeah

[upbeat gust]

Your old code was sending first, then sleeping

[upbeat gust]

You haven't answered my question

are you using client.wait_for

[timid pawn]

yes i am using client.wait_for

[south coyote]

i want it to send and then sleep though

[upbeat gust]

..why?

[south coyote]

because i don't want it to respond to every message that comes along only one every ten minutes

[upbeat gust]

oh

That is not what you asked lol

But ok let's see

[south coyote]

i think this works right?

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return

    if message:
        response = chatbot.request(message.content)
        await message.channel.send(response)
    
    await asyncio.sleep(600)

[upbeat gust]

A really easy but bad way is to use time.sleep instead of asyncio.sleep

This blocks the whole bot from running

Explained here https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#what-does-blocking-mean

If you want to do this the proper way

You could store the time that the bot last responded, then on each new message, check if that was ten minutes ago

[timid pawn]

i have answered your question

[upbeat gust]

The check gets called for each message

if you return False, the bot will keep waiting and checking messages

[timid pawn]

no, only when the user inputs a message.content whose email suffix is in email_checker

[upbeat gust]

how does it know if the suffix is in? This happens in the check

[timid pawn]

you mean returning false in the def check() for the wait for

[timid pawn]

yes, which is the dilemma i'm having with the code, let me resend the code, it seems you don't have access to it anymore

email_checker = [
  '.com', '.net', '.ru', '.co', '.bru', '.dme', '.me', '.nik', '.email'
]

if message.channel.name == "bot-test" and message.content == '/verify':
      sender = message.author
      msg = f'Hi {sender},  Please provide your email for verification'
      
      overwrites = {
        message.guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=False),
        sender: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=True),
        self.user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=True)
      }

      ticket_channel = await message.guild.create_text_channel(f'{sender} verification', overwrites=overwrites)
      await ticket_channel.send(msg)

      def check(message):
        for email_suffix in email_checker:
          if message.content.endswith(email_suffix) and message.channel==ticket_channel:
            return message.content == "Starting your verification"

[upbeat gust]

This isn't your whole code

[timid pawn]

the check would be what i would pass into the wait_for

[upbeat gust]

it's missing relevant parts lik4 the wait_for

[timid pawn]

yeah, but i'm using discord.Client

[upbeat gust]

ok? And?

[timid pawn]

but that's where the event listening begins

[upbeat gust]

what

[keen iris]

are u having a bad day? 💀 @upbeat gust

[upbeat gust]

why do you ask?

[timid pawn]

listening for the event that triggers the ticket channel creation

i basically want to be able to listen back for the response sent into the ticket channel created

[upbeat gust]

do you know how wait_for and checks work?

I don't think you understand

[timid pawn]

yeah, only gone through scenerios in which they are used online and the code i posted was just me trying to see is anything gets returned when initiating the wait_for and calling the check but maybe i don't fully understand it

[upbeat gust]

wait_for Waits for a specific event, when it receives this event it calls the check

The check can either return
True: this is good, I accept this, stop waiting
False: I don't want this, keep waiting

you'd return True if the message is an email

[timid pawn]

okay, but the scenerio i need to implement it for, i need the check to be able to have access to the values inside the email_checker so i still need to make a check inside the check function and that is confusing

because there's nothing i can compare the message in the wait_for to be True to or False to if i can't use the email_checker as a conditional in the check function.

[upbeat gust]

Why do you need a check inside the check??

[timid pawn]

the response i'm waiting for from the user the bot created the ticket_channel for is an email address and the suffix that should end the message.content(response) is in the email_checker

[upbeat gust]

      def check(message):
        for email_suffix in email_checker:
          if message.content.endswith(email_suffix) and message.channel==ticket_channel:
            return True
    
        return False```

Sorry for bad formatting I'm on mobile

[timid pawn]

then how would i instantiate the wait_for

[upbeat gust]

emailmsg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)

[upbeat gust]

Do you understand this?

also this isn't a good email checker, use regex

[mighty pilot]

ok i cant figure it out on my own. how do i delete the view after interactions with a button? i assume it would use the clear_items() function but i dont understand how it works i guess

[timid pawn]

if the check is not passed, it should return False but if it is , it returns True

[upbeat gust]

and what makes the check passed?

[timid pawn]

if the message.content ends with the suffixs and the channel == "the ticket channel"

hmm...i get it know, thanks for the help @upbeat gust

[upbeat gust]

are you using a view subclass

nvm you can just use

[mighty pilot]

i have a view class with 3 buttons in it

[upbeat gust]

And when do you want the view to be removed

[mighty pilot]

when a button is pushed, i want it to do all the checks as it does right now, assign roles, delete roles, send an ephemeral message, and delete the view

[upbeat gust]

You can use await self.message.edit(view=None)

[upbeat gust]

look into using regex to check emails

[timid pawn]

@upbeat gust worked great

[mighty pilot]

self has no attribute message

self returns my view

[timid pawn]

yeah would do that

[upbeat gust]

uhh are you sending the buttons from a slash command?

[mighty pilot]

no

on_message triggers a message to be sent with the view

[upbeat gust]

I'm not sure what's going on then sorry

[mighty pilot]

i also tried to specify self.message inside the __init__ as the original message but then it tries to edit the message the user sent instead of the message attached to the view

[faint mural]

Why are you not using interaction

[upbeat gust]

what from it?

[faint mural]

response.edit_message,
edit_original_response,
...

[upbeat gust]

1st is a response, they've already responded
2nd, they want to edit the original msg, not a response

[faint mural]

When you send a message with a view, that is whats get edited with original_message, second point is that the other options were just hints how you can use the button callback.

3. Option is to take self.message and you can edit it with await self.message.edit(**self.send_kwargs)

[south coyote]

what is this?

[royal wind]

I got a problem. So apparently, it tries to load the cog file, but for some reason, it's not properly loading it... It does not invoke on_ready() function. I did have the setup method in level.py. Is there some mistake I am somehow oblivious to?

[south coyote]

anybody know?

[hushed galleon]

those are simply warnings emitted by the packages neuralintents and keras explaining that your code should use the better approaches they describe, but arent immediate problems to fix

[hushed galleon]

you're using dpy 2.0 right? load_extension and add_cog have to be awaited in 2.0 as part of their breaking changes

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrating.html#extension-and-cog-loading-unloading-is-now-asynchronous

[royal wind]

dpy?

[hushed galleon]

the discord.py package

[royal wind]

awaited eh

await bot.load_extension('filename.py')

?

[hushed galleon]

you will have to move your for-loop to a setup_hook() or main() function as the link describes in order for await to work

[royal wind]

Alright, I'll check that in a moment once I'm done playing

[slate swan]

Can someone help me?

Things have happened to my discord bot :p

from discord.ext import commands


class Help(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.command(name="help")
    @commands.cooldown(1, 2, commands.BucketType.user)
    async def help_command(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(
            color=0x5865F2,
            type=("rich"),
            title=('Eclpses help center!'),
            description=('These are all the commands you can do and what perms you need to do them!')
            add_field(name='!help', value='Defualt')
            add_field(name='!joke', value='Defualt')
            add_field(name='!purge', value='Manage Messages')
        )
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)


async def setup(bot: commands.Bot):
    await bot.add_cog(Help(bot))```

I do not understand what is wrong

[slate swan]

scroll down in that box it will tell you the issue

you should close after description

then embed.add_field

mk lemme try dat

embed param doesn't have an add_field to it. that's method you use after establishing the embed.

TYSM

np.

misspelled meh name

[sick birch]

I believe I was telling you about setup_hook a few days earlier? If you have that, you should easily be able to load extensions and cogs from within there

[royal wind]

Yeah, but I thought that was just your method

I didn't expect they actually changed it

[sick birch]

setuphook is kind of important from 2.0 and up :p

[royal wind]

So, the on_ready() method should go in class MyBot or outside?

[sick birch]

Don't worry about the on_ready. Just move all the stuff inside of it to your setup hook

It's not recommended to do much in on ready

[royal wind]

Ok, I think I fixed it. So how do I run the bot? It used to be bot.run(token), but now I can't do MyBot.run(token)

The docs don't specify how to run if I use setup_hook

[sick birch]

why not?

running should be the same

also you don't need to load the same extension twice

[royal wind]

No, that's the docs

It's giving us two ways to do it

[sick birch]

this is an older way to do it, before setup_hook

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
  ...

bot = MyBot(...)
bot.run(...)

should work just fine

[royal wind]

Anything going inside MyBot()?

[sick birch]

that's up to you

there are a few different approaches

[royal wind]

It still doesn't load it for some reason

[sick birch]

Option 1

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
  def __init__(self) -> None:
    # define intents and everything else here
    super().__init__(command_prefix="!", intents=intents, ...)
bot = MyBot() # no arguments necessary
bot.run()

Option 2

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
  def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
    super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
bot = MyBot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents, ...) # notice how all your arguments are here now?
bot.run()

[royal wind]

Ah

[sick birch]

Try printing out file_extension

Maybe the splitting logic is faulty

[royal wind]

Ok, so either those __init__ is passed and using the normal parent's __init__ or the custom __init__ where we do the intents there before calling the parent's __init__

[sick birch]

exactly

If you haven't learned about *args, **kwargs yet, it's basically saying: "take everything inside of the parenthesis () and pass it straight to super().__init__() without messing with it"

[royal wind]

I personally only have learned about *args. It's arguments passed as tuple. It's useful when we don't want to strictly define the number of parameters a function will take.

[royal wind]

I printed out, and it seems that file_extension is '.py' instead of 'py'. Perhaps I misremembered it.

It's loaded... so fingers crossed. I will check

[sick birch]

!e Yes, exactly. **kwargs is very similar, but works off keyword arguments (hence the name)

def my_func(**kwargs):
  print(kwargs)
my_func(name="John Doe", age=42, occupation="Software Engineer")

[unkempt canyon]

@sick birch :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

{'name': 'John Doe', 'age': 42, 'occupation': 'Software Engineer'}

[royal wind]

Ah, I assume I can do that in whichever order since we already give the key:value pair?

[sick birch]

yup, kwarg order doesn't matter

[royal wind]

So I can pass, to the same function, age=42, name="john doe", etc

[sick birch]

that's correct

[royal wind]

Aye! Thank you. Now on to fixing a ValueError inside my level.py. Thanks for the help

[sick birch]

Feel free to ask if you need help with that

[royal wind]

I might, but I want to spend a bit of time trying to debug first.

Thank you!

[sick birch]

No worries

[royal wind]

It says ValueError from this line

Does it mean I need to convert it to str() first?

I don't assume it has to, otherwise, we'd have the problem that I talked with someone here where SQL would just essentially be blind and be subject to sql injection attack..

Ah, never mind. I think it can afford to be picky and only take string while at the same time not be subject to that attack

OK, I need help Robin!

[slate swan]

I have a question for a cog cmd

how would i make it if someone uses the command "!help" it deletes their message?

then sends text which I know

I searched it on google and yt but they are for slash cmds in the main file ```py
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

class Help(commands.Cog):
def init(self, bot: commands.Bot):
self.bot = bot

@commands.command(name="help")
@commands.cooldown(1, 2, commands.BucketType.user)
async def help_command(self, ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(
        color=0x5865F2,
        type=("rich"),
        title=('Code Assist\'s help center!'),
        description=('These are all the commands you can do and what perms you need to do them! If you need more support go [here](http://www.code-assist.ca)')
        )
    embed.add_field(name='!help', value='Defualt')
    embed.add_field(name='!joke', value='Defualt')
    embed.add_field(name='!purge', value='Manage Messages')
    

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

async def setup(bot: commands.Bot):
await bot.add_cog(Help(bot))```

[vale wing]

await ctx.message.delete()```
And yeah you better subclass help command instead of doing this (check pins)

[slate swan]

a ok

[vale wing]

Also pretty sure there's no need for type kwarg in Embed constructor in this case

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=None, color=None, title=None, type='rich', url=None, description=None, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

New in version 2.0...

[vale wing]

Type is rich by default

[slate swan]

o

what other types are there? I only know rich..

[vale wing]

In fact you shouldn't touch that kwarg at all cuz types are deprecated https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-object-embed-types

[slate swan]

so would the cmd be this?

    @commands.command(name="help")
    @commands.cooldown(1, 2, commands.BucketType.user)
    async def help_command(self, ctx):
        await ctx.message.delete()
        embed = discord.Embed(
            color=0x5865F2,
            title=('Code Assist\'s help center!'),
            description=('These are all the commands you can do and what perms you need to do them! If you need more support go [here](http://www.code-assist.ca)')
            )
        embed.add_field(name='!help', value='Defualt')
        embed.add_field(name='!joke', value='Defualt')
        embed.add_field(name='!purge', value='Manage Messages')
        

        await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[vale wing]

Why are you using those unnecessary braces

[slate swan]

Just makes it easier on my eyes

[vale wing]

"Defualt" is not the correct spelling, "Default" is

[slate swan]

I keep messing up on that 😫

[vale wing]

And check this out for help command https://gist.github.com/InterStella0/b78488fb28cadf279dfd3164b9f0cf96

[slate swan]

mk

ty for the help

wait

do u know how to make slash cmds in cogs?

I tried it but it only works in main.py

[vale wing]

I think so tho I don't have experience with dpy

[slate swan]

o

[vale wing]

!d discord.app_commands.command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.command

@discord.app_commands.command(*, name=..., description=..., nsfw=False, auto_locale_strings=True, extras=...)```
Creates an application command from a regular function.

[vale wing]

With this deco

[slate swan]

oki

[slate swan]

didn't work :p

[wheat walrus]

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 9, in <module>
    bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!')

what its worng ?

[paper sluice]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

[slate swan]

Intents = discord.Intents(messages=True, guilds=True)

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=config["prefix"], intents=Intents.all())```

[slate swan]

dang

[wheat walrus]

ok

ty sir

who?

[wheat walrus]

you

Did they recently change the embed color system as well?

[slate swan]

     embed = discord.Embed(
            color=0x97FEEF
     )

try that

[royal wind]

Yeah, I'll do that once pycharm stop freezing on me

[slate swan]

k, lul

tell meh if it works?

[royal wind]

It works, but on to another problem...

I swear this used to work

[slate swan]

hmmm

[vale wing]

You need to provide integer, not string

"0x97FEEF" is a string, you need hex representation of int, basically done without quotes 0x97FEEF

!e print(0x97FEEF)

Yeah, that was my bad

[paper sluice]

avatar.url

[royal wind]

Ok, I found out by docs that it was replaced to just Member.avatar

[upbeat gust]

Member.avatar is now an Asset

You need Asset.url

[upbeat gust]

did you fix it?

[slate swan]

nope :p

[upbeat gust]

well what have you tried, what's happening

[royal wind]

it works the way I did it though weirdly

[slate swan]

googled stuff but I dont wanna use tree :/

[upbeat gust]

Soo what's going on

[slate swan]

kinda gave up

[upbeat gust]

uh ok then do you want to fix it or not

[slate swan]

I do

[dull knot]

Been awhile last I visited here. Got a question.

What's the object/method or whatever it's called to add stickers to a guild?
I'll try making a sticker-add cmd

[upbeat gust]

!d discord.Guild.create_sticker

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_sticker

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

Creates a [`Sticker`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Sticker "discord.Sticker") for the guild.

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

New in version 2.0.

[dull knot]

Alright. Ima try this later. Thanks!

The same goes for emojis, right?

Guild.create_emoji?

[upbeat gust]

I wonder why anyone would use that though instead of just going to server settings

[upbeat gust]

Probably

[dull knot]

I don't think the Stickers option's been added in CPs yet

Plus, I found it to be more efficient (Especially with emojis)

[upbeat gust]

looks like you're using a bad library, D++ and discordcoreapi both should have these features

https://libs.advaith.io/

[solar garnet]

one of announcementchannel or ctx.guild appear to be a string..

perhaps, print out what announcementchannel and ctx.guild are before the line that causes the error

I don't know what that means :)

Ah, does this autopublish messages in that channel

[south coyote]

im looking for an open source discord tipbot that is compatible with tokens built on avalanche blockchain. can anyone direct me?

[solar garnet]

what are you doing to enable it? is it code that run sin your code or is it a setting on the channel?

so, I assume somewhere in your code you are tracking whether or not autopublish should be on or off. and the bot checks that to see if it should publish a message?

if the bot is still publishing, you probably need to print out what that state is before the bot publishes

it's either reading that state wrong, or the state is not being written (turned off)

[empty frigate]

lets say I am getting a string from somewhere called action and its value is "blur"
The actual command is img.blur(20)
but since im getting value from action I need to do
img.action(20)
but I get error
action is not a function
so how do I solve that
how do I put blur instead of "blur" if you know what i mean

[upbeat gust]

actual command? Value? Action? "Blur"? I don't understand any of that

[empty frigate]

nvm I got my answer

imgblur

your code doesn't match the error

[outer flint]

anything you see wrong with this?

import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands


class ADM(commands.Cog):

I have the whole commands.group after the def __init__

[upbeat gust]

why? What's wrong

[outer flint]

when I write +adm servers the bot doesn't reply

[upbeat gust]

Idk disnake but in dpy its @commands.command()

[outer flint]

[outer flint]

nah the command creation is correct [as in ti should be @adm.command()], I think the "payload" is wrong there

        for guild in guild_lst:
            await ctx.send(guild)

[shrewd apex]

the payload is not automatically created

[upbeat gust]

Why do you think it's correct?

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/cogs.html

[shrewd apex]

u have to input the payload if u are putting it in as a command arg

[upbeat gust]

it's @commands.command(), as I said

[outer flint]

I have like 10-15 bots cogs in that way and they all work

[outer flint]

[upbeat gust]

oh wait shit its a group

[outer flint]

yeah

[upbeat gust]

Yeah didn't see that before

[outer flint]

here, maybe it's clearer

[upbeat gust]

Do you have an error handler?

[outer flint]

let me see... cause I used to have it, but then we disabled it when we went from discord to disnake

[upbeat gust]

you definitely should be getting an error

[upbeat gust]

what is payload.guilds supposed to be? Cause str.guilds definitely doesn't exist

[outer flint]

I think I found another way

moved to the bot.command() in this way it can directly use the bot.guilds
although I think there's a better way to write it

@bot.command()
@commands.has_role("Botmakers")
async def servers(ctx):
    guild_lst = bot.guilds
    for guild in guild_lst:
        await ctx.send(guild)

[glad cradle]

it's @commands.command() in cogs you can't use the Bot object directly to create the command

[upbeat gust]

you can still access bot.guilds in a cog though, you set bot as an attr of self

[glad cradle]

btw this command doesn't makes sense, You don't need a payload, you just need to use self.bot.guilds

[brazen raft]

Instead of payload.guilds → self.bot.guilds?

Also you should put the names together in one string and send that so you don't get rate limited

[outer flint]

the bot can get rate-limited? I never had that happen
but yeah usually we group all of the stuff into one message

[upbeat gust]

Because discord.py automatically handles it

[brazen raft]

Well, the short five seconds pause

[upbeat gust]

You only get an error if you really fuck up

[outer flint]

uhm... I remember people telling the bot was getting slower, but all of our stuff is usually sent in only one message, even long as stuff

or maybe it's jsut my connection acting up

[brazen raft]

The library automatically limits message sends to five per five seconds

Ever tried spamming once yourself?

[outer flint]

tbh... no

[upbeat gust]

not even spamming just like sending 5-10 messages in a row

[vale wing]

I once decided to delete all slash commands one by one for absolutely no reason with raw requests and got ratelimited

[pastel mist]

How do I play an audio file in a voice channel without using FFMPEG?
What I am trying to do: I am trying to use Google TextToSpeech (gTTS) and make the bot say something in a voice channel without storing any audio files

[brazen raft]

You can write it to an io.BytesIO object with

from io import BytesIO
with BytesIO() as buffer:
    gTTS_instance.write_to_fp(buffer)
    # play it in a voice channel

Actually playing sounds in voice channels is beyond me

You might want to seek to the beginning of the buffer with buffer.seek(0) so it also reads the buffer from the beginning

[cold needle]

hey im currently trying to send my csv file via my discord bot in a channel

with but in discord the file just shows

someone know what the issue could be?

why this didnt work i can make multiple channels

[bright wedge]

Where is the problem? I'm from mobile

[slate swan]

no errors but didnt work

i can create channels

[bright wedge]

What we trying to do?

[slate swan]

its ticket system but i can open to manny tickets channel

i need to block it

ex i can spam $open command and it will be create channels

[bright wedge]

check the category channels

and then check if channel exist

[slate swan]

i have it in code u can see but it didnt work

[bright wedge]

define ticket category
for channel in category.text_channels:
    if channel.name == etc....

[slate swan]

i have it

[bright wedge]

ctx.channel.name means the channel you use the command

you wanna check all channels

Not the ctx.channel

[slate swan]

@bright wedge and dont work

[bright wedge]

Show code

hey does anyone know how to make a discord bot tool that let's you control a bot and it asks you a channel ID, you type it in, and then a message ID, you type it in, and then the bot reacts to the message. (the message already has a reaction)

[bright wedge]

if "name" not in [channel.name for channel in category.text_channels]

name use your string for check

[slate swan]

if "ticket-{member.name}" not in ctx.channel.name:
i try this but didnt work

[bright wedge]

Brother

[worldly ridge]

please lmk asap

[bright wedge]

I send you how must be

You must check the guild channels,not the context channel

[shrewd apex]

use channel id who uses name

[bright wedge]

Is wrong if statement

[shrewd apex]

map channel ids to user ids

[slate swan]

ye but i cant use placeholder in ""

Print role and you'll see why

[slate swan]

can anyone help me im really stuck

@client.command()
async def spy(ctx, channel: int):
  await ctx.message.delete()
  user = ctx.author
  client.spy = channel
  await user.send(f"**Channel:** <#{channel}>")

so I have this and it works

but I dont want the client.spy variable to reset when I restart the bot

I was thinking to open a file and set the client.spy to that but idk how and the docs are confusing

[vocal snow]

Have you done any sort of file i/o before?

[slate swan]

not a lot

[vocal snow]

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/inputoutput.html#reading-and-writing-files

[slate swan]

ill try

i dont really learn good reading by myself

[vocal snow]

You can also look up "file i/o with python" and you'll get a lot of resources

[slate swan]

I dont belive its this easy 💀

[vocal snow]

It's pretty easy. You open the file, and read / write to it as necessary.

[slate swan]

with open("spy",'r',encoding = 'utf-8') as f:
  read_data = f.read()
  client.spy = read_data

[vocal snow]

That's a good start

But you need client.spy to be a TextChannel, not a str

[slate swan]

its a channel id

[vocal snow]

Yes... So do you think that would work for utils.get?

[vocal snow]

So you should convert it to an int, and then use bot.get_channel to get the TextChannel object

It wouldn't, exactly

You need to pass a valid role name to utils.get

And anyways, you shouldn't be using role names for this

[slate swan]

um... how??

[vale wing]

Well I just scrolled through their docs, there's no such method at all

!d PIL.Image.Image

[unkempt canyon]

PIL.Image.Image

class PIL.Image.Image```
This class represents an image object. To create [`Image`](https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/Image.html#PIL.Image.Image "PIL.Image.Image") objects, use the appropriate factory functions. There’s hardly ever any reason to call the Image constructor directly.

• [`open()`](https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/Image.html#PIL.Image.open "PIL.Image.open")

• [`new()`](https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/Image.html#PIL.Image.new "PIL.Image.new")

• [`frombytes()`](https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/Image.html#PIL.Image.frombytes "PIL.Image.frombytes")

[vale wing]

ImageDraw does have it tho

[vocal snow]

(set(after.roles)-set(before.roles)) gives you a set of Role objects

You don't need utils.get at all

If you want a string of the role names just use .name

[slate swan]

i think I got this Its just, how do I clear a file

[vocal snow]

" ".join(role.name for role in changed)

@vocal snow

when i do $spy id

it will work but when I restart the bot it doesnt

and the client.spy is the channel id

[worldly ridge]

basically in my visual code, I'm tryna make it so that I can control 2 bots in one script

[vale wing]

Why

Better run 2 processes

[slate swan]

yea why

[vale wing]

2 bots in one script is not really a good idea

[hushed galleon]

i dont see anything wrong with doing that for small bots

[magic orbit]

hello. I'm trying to make a level bot, but it doesn't work. It supposed to add the userID in users.json, and then update the experience, and level, but it doesn't work.

What happens is that when I send a message, it adds my ID (so far it's ok), but then instead of rewriting the experience, it adds the ID again. After that nothing happens
(I'll send the code in a min)

import discord
import json
import os
from discord.ext import commands

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

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix='|', intents=intents)

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Bot online')

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    with open('users.json', 'r') as f:
        users = json.load(f)

    await update_data(users, member)

    with open('users.json', 'w') as f:
        json.dump(users, f)

    
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    with open('users.json', 'r') as f:
        users = json.load(f)

    await update_data(users, message.author)
    await add_experience(users, message.author, 7)
    await level_up(users, message.author, message.channel)

    with open('users.json', 'w') as f:
        json.dump(users, f)

async def update_data(users, user):
    if not user.id in users:
        users[user.id] = {}
        users[user.id]['experience'] = 0
        users[user.id]['level'] = 1

async def add_experience(users, user, exp):
    users[user.id]['experience'] += exp

async def level_up(users, user, channel):
    experience = users[user.id]['experience']
    lvl_start = users[user.id]['level']
    lvl_end = int(experience ** (1/4))

    if lvl_start < lvl_end:
        await client.send_message(channel, '{} has levelled up to level {}'.format(user.mention, lvl_end))
        users[user.id]['level'] = lvl_end

client.run('token')```

[hushed galleon]

not sure what you mean by it "adding the ID again", to where? the json file? what does that file look like afterwards? is it accumulating any experience?
also client.send_message() no longer exists, to send to a channel you'd write await channel.send(...) instead

[austere gust]

yeah, to the json file

[magic orbit]

yep

[hushed galleon]

again, what does that file look like afterwards? do you also get any error message in the terminal?

[slate swan]

@hushed galleon can you help me with something that should work but doesnt?

[hushed galleon]

you can just ask the question, if i know i can answer

[slate swan]

  with open("spy.txt",'r') as f:
    best = f.read()
    client.spy = best
    print(client.spy + " spy")
    print(best + " best")

@client.command()
async def spy(ctx, channel: int):
  await ctx.message.delete()
  user = ctx.author
  client.spy = channel
  with open("spy.txt",'w') as f:
    f.write(f"{channel}")
  await user.send(f"**Channel:** <#{channel}>")

so all this works fine except when I reload the bot

if I do $spy id then it will start logging the chats

but if I restart the bot it doesnt?

[hushed galleon]

ah right, dump() changes integer keys to string keys during the process since integer keys arent allowed, thats why it duplicates it

[slate swan]

and now it wont work if i do $spy

[hushed galleon]

where are you running the first code block?

[slate swan]

this is how im logging messages

with on_message

[hushed galleon]

it seems like there's a type mismatch you have with client.spy

f.read() returns a string, not an integer

[slate swan]

would make sense

[hushed galleon]

you'll need to convert it back to an integer before you can compare the channel id

[slate swan]

how would i do that? I read the docs and didnt see anything

int(best)?

[hushed galleon]

yeah

[slate swan]

wait wait

can I do

best = f.read()
best = int(best)

would that work?

[hushed galleon]

sure

[slate swan]

alr ill test thank you!

[ripe blaze]

I was wondering why bot.get_user(ID) works fine in the main file but for some reason doesnt work at all when used inside a cog

[hushed galleon]

perhaps you're mixing up multiple bot instances

bot by itself typically isnt a variable a cog would have access to (assuming the cog is defined in a separate file and loaded through dpy's extension mechanism)

[slate swan]

thank you so much!!!

[hushed galleon]

but im making a lot of assumptions about your code, so @ripe blaze could you show what your cog file looks like?

!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]

      if message.channel.id != client.spy:

I added this and it broke it

[hushed galleon]

were you meaning to check if the channel id is not equal to your spy attribute?

[slate swan]

wait I dont even need to add it 🤦

[hushed galleon]

to clarify, if you created two bot instances, both of them will have separate caches, which means when one instance connects to discord, only that instance can cache users from the API

Let's say I do something like this:

I get this error "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name'"
when trying to run the command.

[hushed galleon]

so you do have multiple bot instances

the cog file shouldnt define its own commands.Bot at the top

[ripe blaze]

how do I reference the one in the main file?

or is there another way to do it?

[hushed galleon]

the setup function is what provides the bot instance that loaded the extension, and you've already assigned it to self

so self.bot is how you'd access that instance in your command

[ripe blaze]

oh

thanks!

[silent portal]

Hey, can my Bot Token get stolen when it's directly in the main.py file? Should I use an extra .txt file for that?

[winged coral]

Define stolen

If it's not going anywhere other than your PC then there's no difference

If you're gonna put it on github or someplace like that, it would help

Because you can gitignore the extra file and leave the main

[silent portal]

no it will just be on my private server

and ofc I won't share my token with any1

but idk i was just wondering

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

How to use this

[torn sail]

is it possible to fetch a message without knowing the channel id?

[glad cradle]

having a message with components to modify the components this classmethod transforms the list of non-editable components into a View object that you can modify

[zinc otter]

No

You need the channel to fetch it

[glad cradle]

and

[gloomy meadow]

oh my god my text was deleted bruh

sec lemme write it again :/

[glad cradle]

ok

[gloomy meadow]

I made a discord bot and told my friends to spam commands in order to test it.
The commands are taking time to execute as they're performing certain tasks which cause it. This is intentional.
How can I do so that once a command is executed, until its execution is over, all the other commands will be ignored. With that being said, let's say I ran a command list, until the command's function finishes its execution no other command shall be noticed. So if someone writes another command before that previous command finishes its execution, it will simply be ignored and never executed.

how do I accomplish that?

[sick birch]

This fundamentally goes against asynchronous programming

[gloomy meadow]

I figured that out yeah

I understand what I'm asking for is basically wrong

but does discord bot support synchronous programming?

[sick birch]

You could set some sort of state that indicates if the bot should ignore commands, and a global commands check that only processes commands if that state is false

[gloomy meadow]

yeah

I thought about that as well

[sick birch]

Is there a reason that wouldn't work?

[gloomy meadow]

so basically it works, but I would have actually loved if it'd print out a message that another command is in execution

[sick birch]

You should be able to do that in a global check no problemo

[gloomy meadow]

well I did, but the message is delayed

I mean, sure, it informs the user, but late

and don't mind the last 2 lines

they're simply there because I forgot to return

the point is that it waits for the previous command to finish, before informing of another command being executed

as it is asynchronous after all

[glad cradle]

what?

[gloomy meadow]

let me explain

[glad cradle]

An asynchronous function does not wait for the result of another function, those are synchronous functions

[gloomy meadow]

running first command -> execution in progress
running second command while first is still in progress -> nothing happens
first finishes -> outputs
now since first finishes, second is able to output that it can't run because another command is already in execution

[gloomy meadow]

nono, reading commands is asynchronous, the execution isn't, unless I get it all wrong

ah nvm

I'll give up on that message and just have it ignore duplicates

[slate swan]

anybody have a code to make discord bot send a message every hour or so

         await message.channel.send(random.choice(messages))

how does this look so far

how do i get it to respond to the command prefix?

[winged coral]

You're using the commands.Bot extension so you don't need to manually parse and handle commands in the message event

The commands.command decorator handles that for you, and uses the prefix you pass the Bot constructor as the prefix for those commands

[bright wedge]

use for prefix something like that "!", "$", "#" etc

[winged coral]

The prefix can be anything you want

[bright wedge]

ofc

[bright wedge]

in my option do something like that:

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

@bot.command()
async def random(ctx):
  await ctx.send(random.choice(messages))

[south coyote]

random.randint(0, 9)

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import random

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

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'We have logged in as {bot.user}')

@bot.command()
async def random(ctx):
  await ctx.send(random.randint(1, 10))

that should work whenever anybody types random

right?

[bright wedge]

define the prefix

[south coyote]

i don't want a prefix

[bright wedge]

ok

[south coyote]

thanks though

[bright wedge]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == bot.user:
        return
    if message.content.startswith('random'):
         await message.channel.send(random.randint(1, 10))

this will work then

[winged coral]

^ You only want the prefix if you're using the commands extension

[south coyote]

what is the difference between bot.event and client.event

[bright wedge]

there is a difference between bot and client

[bright wedge]

#discord-bots message

here

[south coyote]

so its kinda pointless to use commands if you are not using a prefix then huh

[bright wedge]

if you dont wont commands

you can use client

[south coyote]

what if i want it to respond to this "please give me a random number"

if random is somewhere in the message then i want it to respond

how do i make it aware of the keyword somewhere within the message?

if message.contains?

take out the startswith?

if message.content('random'):
        await message.channel.send(random.randint(1, 10))

yeah?

no apparently that doesn't work

oh it's "includes"

hmmm not working either

[faint mural]

you can just use "something" in message.content:

[light night]

        await interaction.response.send_message(content="Oh no it was a fake", ephemeral=True)
        await asyncio.sleep(2)

        # message = await interaction.original_response()

        await interaction.edit_original_response(content="Prepare to get rickrolled...(it's a good song anyway)")
        await asyncio.sleep(2)

        await interaction.edit_original_response(content="https://i.imgur.com/NQinKJB.gif")

for me to even check if the orginal response is deleted I have to do this message check should I just fetch if it doesn't work then make I pass the arg into followup, I am not sure how to do this well lol
Having the user delete the response doesn't raise an error

[south coyote]

thanks lia

[faint mural]

I am almost sure it would raise an error if you try to edit a message which doesn't exist anymore

[light night]

it doesn't, I can tell you that easily

[faint mural]

Is the message ephemeral?

[light night]

yes, when it's deleted it doesn't send me an errors, when deleted
This is because of the user btw

I am only using discord web, but I am logged into mobile but my phone is in sleep mode rn

I want to pop it up, to rickroll them but if that's not good idea, feel free to say so

how can i check the type of exception that occurs? im trying to do:

except Exception:
      if Exception is errors.ExtensionAlreadyLoaded:
        pass
      else:
        print(f'Failed to load extension {extension}', file=sys.stderr)
        traceback.print_exc()

try:
  ...
except ValueError:
  ...
except IndexError:
  ...
except ArithmeticError:
  ...

[austere vale]

what type of error would an ExtensionAlreadyLoaded error be ?

command error?

[sick birch]

ExtensionAlreadyLoaded

[austere vale]

[sick birch]

[austere vale]

[silent ridge]

hey guys

anyone knows how to solve this?

[hushed galleon]

@silent ridge do you have a file named discord.py? or a discord folder?

apparently the .ext commands sub-package doesnt exist

[silent ridge]

nope

[silent ridge]

hmm thats weird, any idea how to fix that?

[hushed galleon]

can you show the packages you have installed with pip list in the terminal?

[south coyote]

i just wanna take a second to thank all of you who take your time out of your day to help those of us in need

[silent ridge]

this ❤️

[hushed galleon]

discord and discord.py might be conflicting

[silent ridge]

okay let me uninstall discord

[hushed galleon]

id uninstall both of them and then pip install discord.py==1.7.3 to make sure d.py isnt broken

[silent ridge]

it did worked! I don't have the problem anymore

thanks, but now my code doesn't respond :/

import discord
import random
from discord.ext import commands


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



@bot.command()
async def cr(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(title="CoolRate", description = f"You are {random.randrange(101)}% Cool", color = discord.Color.random())
    await ctx.send(embed = embed)




bot.run("TOKEN")```

I have this, and replaced for TOKEN I have inputted the token ofcourse
