[fading marlin]

that looks about right, what exactly are you doubting?

[slate swan]

cus bruv

[fading marlin]

you have to start the task

[slate swan]

ctx

[fading marlin]

idk, __init__ if you want it to start as soon as the cog is initialized, a command if you want to toggle it

you don't need to, just throw it inside your init

sure

[slate swan]

@fading marlin

like do i not have a module or somethin installed

Fixed it nvm

[slate swan]

Question: Does anyone know why I'm not seeing my slash commands on the list?

Code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/hubopabobe.py

[sick birch]

You ran the .sync command?

Looks like all your commands are global

You might want to try using .copy_global_to

[slate swan]

Yea does nothing

where do I put .copy_global_to

[sick birch]

above the sync

[slate swan]

.copy_global_to
async def sync(ctx) -> None:
    fmt = await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
    await ctx.send(
        f"Synced {len(fmt)} commands to current guild"
    )
    return

?

@sick birch

bro please help me

[sick birch]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.copy_global_to

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.copy\_global\_to

copy_global_to(*, guild)```
Copies all global commands to the specified guild.

This method is mainly available for development purposes, as it allows you to copy your global commands over to a testing guild easily.

Note that this method will *override* pre-existing guild commands that would conflict.

[sick birch]

i meant this not just adding that text to the code

above your await ctx.bot.tree.sync()

[sick birch]

Read the documentation on how to use the function

it needs to be called on your tree instance

[slate swan]

async def sync(ctx) -> None:
    copy_global_to(*, guild=None, type=None)
    fmt = await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
    await ctx.send(
        f"Synced {len(fmt)} commands to current guild"
    )
    return``` 

**Its still an error can you please just help me so I can start slash commands

[sick birch]

Have you read the documentation throughly?

It tells you exactly how to use it

[slate swan]

The doc confused me

[sick birch]

Which part? I'd be happy to clarify

[slate swan]

I don't really know where to look to get my answer theres so many things I'm just trying to get my slash commands to appear

[sick birch]

if you'll notice, copy_global_to is under discord.app_commands.CommandTree

This means that copy_global_to has to be called on a dsicord.app_commands.CommandTree instance

Luckily - you've already got that!

ctx.bot.tree happens to be an instance of discord.app_commands.CommandTree

[sick birch]

notice how sync is also under the same class?

[slate swan]

Yea

[sick birch]

It also tells you the aguments the class takes

The first one, client is your client/bot instance (ctx.bot in your case). The 2nd argument is an optional, so you can ignore it if you'd like

Put together, it'll look like this:

await ctx.bot.copy_global_to(guild=ctx.guild)

That's my crash course on How To Read Documentation ™️

[slate swan]

I'm still confused on where to find the answer to my problem tho

[sick birch]

It's an invaluable skill, and learning how to do it efficiently will supercharge you as a developer, and allow you to focus on new features than fighting with the language/library/framework you're using

[sick birch]

I've just given it to you, see the message above this

Though I would highly recommend against copy pasting it and moving on

[slate swan]

fmt = await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
Get rid of this?

[sick birch]

I'd recommend you take your time, analyze each part, and make sure you're 100% sure what's going on before you proceed, since this is fundamental. If you've got questions I'd be more than happy to answer them

No, you still need to be syncing

You just need to copy all of your global commands to a guild, then sync those copied commands with Discord

Reason being global commands can take up to 1 hour to propagate

[slate swan]

async def sync(ctx) -> None:
    await ctx.bot.copy_global_to(guild=ctx.guild)
    fmt = await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
    await ctx.send(
        f"Synced {len(fmt)} commands to current guild"
    )
    return```

**Is this a good final result?**

[sick birch]

Sure. Sounds good, though it still seems you're worried more about the final result than the intermediates, which are far more important 😄 I can't force you to of course, but just make sure you understand before moving on

[slate swan]

Okay thanks

I just want to test out my slash command

[sick birch]

I can totally understand that - but if you don't get comfortable with problem solving and documentation skills, it'll only get harder. Not meant to discourage you, of course, just friendly advice you can keep in mind

[slate swan]

I got an error

[sick birch]

Let's see it

[slate swan]

  File "C:\Users\dynam\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\core.py", line 986, in invoke

[sick birch]

Is that the whole error? Looks like parts are cut off

[slate swan]

I'll re try

[slate swan]

is full error

[sick birch]

Much better

Ah shit that's on me, it's ctx.bot.tree not just ctx.bot

My apologies

[slate swan]

so no ctx.bot.tree.sync? just ctx.bot.tree

and all good

[sick birch]

Leave the sync as it is

The line above, the copy global to part, it should be ctx.bot.tree.copy_global_to

right now its' ctx.bot.copy_global_to

Notice the difference? it can be a bit hard to spot

[slate swan]

oh ok

I'll re try

[slate swan]

"await cannot be used as an expression"

[sick birch]

Full traceback, please

[slate swan]

wait what

I just reset and it worked bruh 😭

[sick birch]

It happens. May not have saved all the way

[slate swan]

One issue tho "The application did not respond"

For every slash command I do

[sick birch]

Can I see the pastebin of the entire code?

[slate swan]

yea

[sick birch]

I've lost the link as I rebooted my computer

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/bayoxoxika

[sick birch]

For which command specifically did it not respond?

[slate swan]

All 3

[sick birch]

Hmmm

It should at least work for the login one

Try doing print statements in each, see if they get called

[slate swan]

print?

oh nvm

[sick birch]

Yeah, for instance

@client.tree.command(...)
async def login(...):
  print("Login command was called!")

[slate swan]

yea

[sick birch]

Do that for all 3, run your slash commands from discord, see what happens

[slate swan]

I'm unfamiliar with slash commands

Is this right?

async def login(ctx):
  print("Login command was called!")```

[sick birch]

Don't change any existing code

[hushed galleon]

if none of the commands responded, wouldnt there have been more tracebacks in the console?

[slate swan]

yea there was

[sick birch]

Just add the print statement as the first line in your slash command functions

[sick birch]

It would be helpful to see them otherwise we're just taking a shot in the dark as to what the issue is

[slate swan]

alright one second

[sick birch]

What are you trying to do here? Check if the user_info exists?

Or get the index of it?

[slate swan]

I did /balance and that was the error

[sick birch]

Yeah, but what is the purpose of that line?

user_info = collection.find({"user": user})

What's it supposed to be doing?

[slate swan]

find the user

[sick birch]

Ahh, did you remove the database connection code?

I think collection is supposed to be something from your database, yes?

[slate swan]

yea

[sick birch]

Is it MongoDB?

[slate swan]

mhm

[sick birch]

Could you include the code? Remove any sensitive information like database URLs and login passwords

[slate swan]

you mean add this?

cluster = MongoClient(mongo_url)
db = cluster['']```

[sick birch]

Is that all your database connection?

[slate swan]

yea

[sick birch]

Well it looks like you're assuming collection is a MongoDB object, when it's just a regular list

So you'll have to change all of that to accomodate for it

[slate swan]

i am doing this but it just exits the app evereytime..

  name = input("\033[31mClick any key to return to menu")
except KeyboardInterrupt:
  os.system('cls')
  print(x)

BTW print(x) is just something it re prints out

im trying to make it reprint x but it just closes the prompt

someone???

[granite plume]

how do you convert message input (with wait_for command) into a str?

[sick birch]

It's a string by default

[granite plume]

nevermind

you need to use message.content

[sick birch]

msg = await bot.wait_for("message", ...)
print(type(msg.content)) # <class 'str'>

[granite plume]

it is by default?

i was getting it to be type 'Message'

[granite plume]

but yeah i'm using .content now so there's no problem

[granite plume]

How do I get the "guess" command to work

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @granite plume!

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

[sick birch]

We don't help with music bots per rule 5, sorry

ahh okay

is it against tos to do music bots with spotify too?

[torn sail]

Spotify doesn’t give you the music I think

Only gives info about the music

[quick dust]

yo anyone down to help me

[alpine cove]

dontasktoask.com

[quick dust]

OHHHH thanks

[alpine cove]

np

post your actual question

[full valley]

How would I be able to record audio in voice channels through a bot?

[slate swan]

only js libs capable of that. no py libs that I know of are actually able to maintain something like that

[full valley]

damn

[full valley]

So you dont think anything can be done with this :/, my js is limited would be a pain in the ass

[slate swan]

none of that is able to record audio

[naive briar]

They really do hate pycord in here

[slate swan]

thats just vc channel related stuff and playing audio

[slate swan]

nobody likes pycord

[full valley]

Alright I'll guess ill make it in js

thanks

[naive briar]

🥴

[slate swan]

like why
ctx.send_modal interaction.response.send_modal

[hollow agate]

I currently have this code: ```py
class AnswerQuestion(discord.ui.Modal, title='Give a Quote'):

answer = discord.ui.TextInput(
    label='Response',
    placeholder='What is your response?',
    max_length=2000,
)

async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    db = await aiosqlite.connect('database.db')
    cursor = await db.execute('SELECT * FROM questions WHERE question_message_id=?', (interaction.message.id, ))
    rows = await cursor.fetchone()
    freelancer = interaction.client.get_user(rows[1])
    embed = discord.Embed(title="New Response!",
                        description=f"Your question for {interaction.user.mention}'s project has been answered! \n\n{self.answer.value}",
                        color=discord.Color.orange())
    embed.set_footer(text=interaction.user, icon_url=interaction.user.avatar.url)
    embed.timestamp = datetime.now()
    await freelancer.send(embed=embed)
    for item in self.children:
        item.disabled = True
    await interaction.message.edit(view=self)
    await interaction.response.send_message("Successfully answered their question!", ephemeral=True)
    await db.execute('DELETE FROM questions WHERE question_message_id=?', (interaction.message.id, ))
    await db.commit()
    await db.close()``` My question lies in the ```py
    for item in self.children:
        item.disabled = True
    await interaction.message.edit(view=self)``` section. How could I disable the button that opens the modal? I cannot use what I currently have as `self` is defined as the Modal and not the button's stuff... This is how I send the Modal via the button: Opening the modal's code is: ```py

class AnswerQuestions(discord.ui.View):
def init(self):
super().init(timeout=None)

@discord.ui.button(emoji='📨', label='Reply', style=discord.ButtonStyle.grey, custom_id='questions:1')
async def reply(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
    await interaction.response.send_modal(AnswerQuestion())```

[slate swan]

is this dpy?

[naive briar]

Seems like

[hollow agate]

It is, yes.

[slate swan]

i mean since ur sending a modal

inside the button. use bot.wait_for for modal submit then disable button there

idfk i don't use view's for reasons like this. does dpy have "low level components"?

[hollow agate]

That would result in me not being able to have a persistent button

[slate swan]

otherwise you will need to find a way to get the component after submitting the modal

[slate swan]

how?

[hollow agate]

Yeah, I've been trying to get it via a message ID (I'm storing everything anyways), so I'm not sure

[hollow agate]

When I restart the bot, it would break the wait_for

[slate swan]

oh ye true

[hollow agate]

I'm just super lost on what I can try that I haven't tried already 😂

[slate swan]

a janky way would be to use asyncio.sleep

[naive briar]

!d discord.ui.Modal.on_submit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Modal.on\_submit

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

Called when the modal is submitted.

[slate swan]

in the button callback and set it to 5 mins. i think thats timeout limit for modals?

[hollow agate]

I don't think Modals have a timeout

[slate swan]

by default no

[naive briar]

[slate swan]

but you can set it.

[hollow agate]

Ahh, gotcha

[topaz helm]

does anyone have the removerole order? dm me pls

[supple thorn]

removerole order?

[topaz helm]

remove role

i have a give role

i need remove role

[mighty pilot]

I just figured this out for regular buttons a couple days ago. Give me a few to feed my daughter and I'll hop on the computer and show you how I did it. Are you trying to disable just that button or the whole menu?

By "I figured it out" I mean I asked here and played around with the answers people gave me until something finally worked

[mighty pilot]

    await interaction.followup.edit_message( message_id=interaction.message.id, view=self)```

i put that inside the code for my button and it disables the button after interaction

[slate swan]

guys whats the command to do that if a mod to action like mutes a member it will send the action in a channel ?

!d action

[unkempt canyon]

action

[slate swan]

ok isnt that

[slate swan]

this won't work. he needs a way to get the button after submitting the modal

from inside the modal view

[mighty pilot]

thought he was trying to disable the button that creates the modal?

[slate swan]

yea after it is submitted

the first time

[mighty pilot]

oh he wants the button disabled after the modal is submitted not after the button is pushed?

[slate swan]

yeah cause what if the user clicks the button and doesn't actual send the modal, then they no longer have access to the button

[mighty pilot]

then theyd have to pop up another button lol but yea i see

so could you pass the interaction into the modal with interaction: discord.Interaction then specify self.interaction = interaction in the modal and use self.interaction.followup.edit_message() inside the modal response?

[slate swan]

how would u pass interaction into the modal tho? you can't pass anything into .send_modal

guys how do i tag the action member

like the member that used to command

mute, so how do i get the moderator

author.mention

thanks!

[mighty pilot]

the way i passed a message interaction into my view was in the send command. so send_modal(AnswerQuestion(myview))?

[slate swan]

huh. .send_modal only takes a modal object

what u can do is. somehow store the id of the message containing the button and after the modal is submitted use View.from_message

[mighty pilot]

wish i had more time to try it out for myself but i gotta head to work. seems like there should be a way to pass it through without needing to store it

[slate swan]

this is why I don't like views at all lol

[mighty pilot]

yea theyre tricky thats for sure

[slate swan]

disnake has low level components where

@Cog.listener()
async def on_button_click(self, inter: disnake.MessageInteraction):
    if inter.component.custom_id == "asfdasf":
    ....

whatt

[mighty pilot]

yea ive noticed that disnake tends to make shit easy for people lol

[slate swan]

its datetime.timetdelta

@bot.command()
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member = None, time = None, *, reason='No reason!'):
  channel = bot.get_channel(1035829526766293043)

  await ctx.channel.send(embed=embed)```

```discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: type object 'datetime.datetime' has no attribute 'timedelta'

[slate swan]

ohh timetdelta

no

[mighty pilot]

lmfao

[slate swan]

typo but datetime.timedelta not datetime.datetime.timedelta

[slate swan]

thats what i did

[slate swan]

.

[slate swan]

also remove your = None if its a required argument.

[mighty pilot]

how did you import it?

[slate swan]

did u import datetime from datetime?

[slate swan]

from datetime import datetime

thats why

importing like that ur doing datetime.datetime.timedelta

so what do i do

from timedelta import datetime

no lol

remove ur import or

from datetime import datetime, timedelta

discord.utils.utcnow()+timedelta(seconds=time)

does anyone wanna make a bot together or am i going to make 1 alone 🥲

quack

[slate swan]

thanks!

[glad cradle]

what kind of Bot would you like to do

[slate swan]

general bot

• mod
• fun
• idk

[mighty pilot]

Mod bots can be pretty labor intensive

[slate swan]

wdym "labor intensive"

[mighty pilot]

Lots of lines of code

Depending on what you want it to do

[slate swan]

isnt that for every bot lol

[mighty pilot]

I mean sure it always could be long if you make it do a lot. But there's a lot of moderation to be done in a server

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

at this point i wouldn't even make a mod bot, discord's automod taking over tbh.

[mighty pilot]

True. I hope they do it justice

[slate swan]

true

[mighty pilot]

My shortest one is like 50 lines aside from a dict. Just posts a random fact every day

[slate swan]

lol

[slate swan]

u wanna make like just a general bot
not auto mod or stuff like that

- Music
- Economy?
- Level

thats all i got idk

music denied

🤣

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mighty pilot]

I've already made a pretty intense level bot

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

im bored ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[glad cradle]

contribute to a library development 🙂

it's funny

[slate swan]

welp idk if u want to join

You could make cogs for something like redbot

[slate swan]

🤣

[slate swan]

i never learnt cog 💀

what

you don't need to learn cogs, thats just basic python

[slate swan]

..?

you create a subclass of commands.Cog with command objects inside it

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'author' is not defined

oh thanks

[glad cradle]

L

[mighty pilot]

[slate swan]

whos ffzz

..?

[glad cradle]

It would be better to use GitHub

[slate swan]

how

[slate swan]

that's why you don't share live code sessions publically

[slate swan]

i mean i dont have anything in it anyway lol

they can access everything in the opened folder

including your token, if you have any

[slate swan]

nice

[slate swan]

im about to make 1 lol

idc if it get used

[glad cradle]

Well, you upload your Bot code and contributors that wants to contribute will opens pull requests (they'll clone your repo and modify your Bot code locally) but it's a little bit complex because you need some rules and checks (and idk if non premium user can have checks, maybe they're only for teams)

[slate swan]

anyone can use checks using github workflows

[slate swan]

too complicated

[glad cradle]

Nice

[mighty pilot]

You say that... until some troll gets your bot rate limited or reported lol

[slate swan]

alt.exe

[slate swan]

yeah, any offense with the bot will be considered to be done by you

ill use my friends account :~troll:

  embed.set_footer(text=f"Requested by {ctx.author.name}", icon_url=ctx.author.avatar)

  await ctx.channel.send(embed=embed)```

and its sending the embed in the currect channel and not the channel i did   channel = bot.get_channel(1035829526766293043)

channel.send , not ctx.channel.send

remove the ctx

ohh

my bad lol thanks!

@slate swan oh hi

the time that user provided wasnt an integer

i did !mute the mention and 1m

[naive briar]

That isn't an integer

[slate swan]

1m aint an integer

so what do i do

[vale wing]

Use some datetime parsing lib or this converter #discord-bots message

[slate swan]

oh thanks

NameError: name 'Converter' is not defined

[vale wing]

Import it 🤓

[slate swan]

from discord import Converter
import Converter

[vale wing]

import Converter the what

[slate swan]

ImportError: cannot import name 'Converter' from 'discord' (C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\discord_init_.py)

[vale wing]

What about paying more attention to imports that are in my code

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.Convertor

[slate swan]

do i import that or

[vale wing]

Yk what

[slate swan]

class TimeConverter(discord.ext.commands.Convertor):

[vale wing]

!pypi parsedatetime or smth

[unkempt canyon]

parsedatetime v2.6

Parse human-readable date/time text.

[vale wing]

I forgor the lib

[slate swan]

https://pypi.org/project/durations-nlp
https://pypi.org/project/time-str

[vale wing]

@slate swan ^

It's easier for you to use

[slate swan]

oh thanks!

[glad thicket]

no idea

hmm....

I have no idea

I think you may have to ask in the discord.py server

[mighty pilot]

Are you trying to make it happen all at once? If so you'll have to loop to make it go back over your if statements

Or are you triggering it twice

[slate swan]

@bot.command()

[naive briar]

What's the problem

Not everyone can just understand your problem by saying why is it not working

[slate swan]

also no errors

[mighty pilot]

They explained below that post lol

[naive briar]

Round it

[slate swan]

oh okay

[naive briar]

I meant round the time

[slate swan]

!d discord.utils.format_dt use it

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

discord.utils.format_dt(dt, /, style=None)```
A helper function to format a [`datetime.datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "(in Python v3.11)") for presentation within Discord.

This allows for a locale-independent way of presenting data using Discord specific Markdown...

[slate swan]

oh wdym where

you'll just have to pass the datetime in

[naive briar]

Yeah, that's easier 🫠

[slate swan]

epochEnd = pyTime.datetime() + time

[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]

epochEnd = datetime.fromtimestamp(time.time())

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

time there is an float

not the time lib

so what do i do

[slate swan]

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

what can i write to help that

@message.error
async def message_error(ctx, error):
if isinstance(error, commands.MemberNotFound):
await ctx.send("Please mention a member!")

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

now it is sending it but shows an error

[slate swan]

no way they rounded the screen shot 😭😭😭🤣🤣😂😂😂

[naive briar]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None, bulk=True, reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") to delete messages even if they are your own. Having [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") is also needed to retrieve message history.

Changed in version 2.0: The `reason` keyword-only parameter was added.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[naive briar]

purge don't accept positional arguments

[primal token]

It does, self can be passed positionally or with its name

[meager chasm]

okimi use sm common sense they r obviously not talking about self 😆

[primal token]

I'm not okimii? I'm correcting the persons statement as self can be passed positionally and it's an argument in the method, no?

[honest shoal]

How do we receive voice

[slate swan]

self can be passed if its a function, not a method

[slate swan]

you'll have to use a fork like pycord or nextcord, discord.py doesnt support that

[primal token]

what

[slate swan]

?self can be passed if you use it like discord.TextChannel.purge(...) ( as a function)
but not if you use it as <a discord.TextChannel object>.purge(...) ( as method )

[primal token]

It still would be a method

No matter how you access it

[slate swan]

!e ```py
class Foo:
def bar(): ...
print(type(Foo.bar), type(Foo().bar))

[unkempt canyon]

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

[primal token]

https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-method

[slate swan]

ok

[primal token]

Going by the terms lol

[honest shoal]

I use disnake

[slate swan]

disnake doesnt have voice support either ( from when i checked it for last time )

[glad cradle]

It doesn't exist yet

[glad cradle]

hi noid

[primal token]

Hi snipy, long time no see👋

[alpine cove]

voice recv support?

[slate swan]

yeah

[alpine cove]

a lot of others do tho

[slate swan]

.

[alpine cove]

bruz

[alpine cove]

use dpy-toolbox (works with discord.py)
dont check the source code tho its poorly written
Download link: https://pypi.org/project/dpy-toolbox

[slate swan]

meh its so unprofessional, but anyways yeah it works as long as it works

[alpine cove]

yep ik

[slate swan]

i just realised that you're the author, hope you stub your toe

[alpine cove]

yea I'm kinda low on testers

I thought I'd use the opportunity

[slate swan]

i wanna do that if a member writes the command and the name it will send to the staff channel and will add a reaction of vi and x which thats what it is doing but how do i do that if a staff member clicks on vi it will change the name of the member to the name he chooses, and if on x it will send to the member that the name didnt approve?

@bot.command(aliases=["Name"])

[silver tendon]

Where in these commands should be located json.dump?

async def open_acc(user):
    users = await get_bank()

    if user.bot is True:
        return
    if str(user.id) in users:

    else:
        users[str(user.id)] = {}
        users[str(user.id)]["wallet"] = 100
    write_json("bank.json", users)
    return True
                

async def get_bank():
    users = load_json("bank.json")
    return users

[upbeat otter]

you will have to store the message id along with the member id who requested the access to changing the name. you can use the on_raw_reaction_add event to check when a reaction is added to a message (You will need intents for this which are enabled in the default intents) . You can then check the message id with your stored ids and if there is a good match then you can do further processing

[slate swan]

wow tysm!!

[slate swan]

welp i can help if you're working on a rewrite or something cause it seems pretty much messed up

[alpine cove]

yea ik

I'm bad at structuring things

[rustic onyx]

!e

[unkempt canyon]

@rustic onyx :warning: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

[No output]

[primal token]

Why the check if youre only catching one specific error? Either way the logic isnt right, you're checking if error an instance of ZeroDivisionError is equal to the ZeroDivisionError class object

For things like that you would use isinstance

[primal token]

!e

print(1 == int)

.flatten is no longer a thing

[primal token]

and you placed it incorrectly

[slate swan]

still shows 2 hours

discord.app_commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command 'giveaway' raised an exception: TypeError: object list can't be used in 'await' expression

i suppose you want something like this?

users = [user async for user in giveawaymsg.reactions[0].users()]

[cloud dawn]

What did you want to do with flatten?

[slate swan]

its taking whpever reacted

[slate swan]

still two hours:(

discord.app_commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command 'giveaway' raised an exception: IndexError: list index out of range

[primal token]

Theres no reactions

[slate swan]

yup

but it still shows 2 hours

[cloud dawn]

I actually made something like this with time and I just forced the user to input a ranged int (0, 86400) and let the choose the prefix like days, minutes etc and if it is over a year convert it to just 1 year.

How i can update my discord bot

[cloud dawn]

Open the file in word and edit the text.

[hollow gazelle]

i need help

how do i make my bot give someone a role after they do a command

 @bot.command()
async def register(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(
        description=
        f"**You Have __Successfully__ Registered As {ctx.author.mention}\n\nHave Fun Playing And Good Luck.**",color=0xfc0303)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[sick birch]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

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

You must have [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[hollow gazelle]

do i put role name await add_roles(*here, reason=None, atomic=True)

@bot.command()
async def register(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(
        description=
        f"**You Have __Successfully__ Registered As {ctx.author.mention}\n\nHave Fun Playing And Good Luck.**",color=0xfc0303)

     await add_roles(*roles, reason=None, atomic=True)
     await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

like that?

[sick birch]

You pass in the role you want to add

The role object not the name

[hollow gazelle]

how sorry for bothering im new to python

@bot.command()
async def register(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(
        description=

like this?

Page 2/7

[mighty pilot]

You have to use get to get the role then use the role object not just the name

[hollow gazelle]

can u give exapmple

[naive briar]

Any object with id property works as far as I know

[hollow gazelle]

so id = idhere

@bot.command()
async def register(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(

  await add_roles(name=community, reason=None, atomic=True)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[mighty pilot]

That's an indentation error. Fix your indents

[naive briar]

That's a familiar code highlight colours

[hollow gazelle]

HUH

[balmy idol]

VSC

[hollow gazelle]

no replit

im at school lol

[balmy idol]

Oh ok

[hollow gazelle]

how do i fix the indent

its not wroking

ive tried and tried

[balmy idol]

What is the error

[naive briar]

Make the indent in the same level as the above line

[hollow gazelle]

@bot.command()

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[hollow gazelle]

ok

got that now

[cold burrow]

Hi I wrote this code back in 2017

string = [k,a,b,c,d,e,f,t,g]
for z in string:
    await client.edit_message(message,z)

This doesnt work anymore so after reading the documentation i tried this:

string = [k, a, b, c, d, e, f, t, g]
for z in string:
    await message.edit(z)

but i get the error
TypeError: edit() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

anyone know why ?

[hollow gazelle]

How do I fix

[slate swan]

content = z

[hollow gazelle]

@naive briar can u help when u get a chance

[cold burrow]

thx !

[grand willow]

its await ctx.author.add_roles()

[hollow gazelle]

Ok

But where I put the roller it adds

Or above it

[grand willow]

?

[hollow gazelle]

How do I make it so It gives them a role I want

[sick birch]

Do you have role ID?

[hollow gazelle]

Yes I have the Id for the role

[sick birch]

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

get_role(role_id, /)```
Returns a role with the given ID.

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

[hollow gazelle]

Do I put it above or somthing

[grand willow]

Above giving the role yes

[hollow gazelle]

Ok

[slate swan]

Why pip install discord.py don't work ?

[hollow gazelle]

giving invlaid intax what wrong wit it

[hollow gazelle]

like that?

[glad cradle]

are you getting an error?

[fading dirge]

does someone know why my bot cant send embeds? It doesnt show up any errors

[glad cradle]

no, you need a guild object and role_id should be replaced by the role id

[hollow gazelle]

how do i get a guild object

[vale wing]

You can't code by copypasting every fricking thing and not understanding what that is

[hollow gazelle]

i can do other stuff just getting into discord.py

pretty much not copying pasting everything i wrote the whole code to this bot just stuggleing with a few things

[glad cradle]

ctx.guild.get_role(role_id) to get a role from the guild where the command was run, if you want to get a role from another guild where your Bot is in you need to get/fetch the guild with the Bot object

[hollow gazelle]

ok

thanks

[vale wing]

Well that thing is not really dpy related

It's more like functions related

[hollow gazelle]

ye bc its adding a role

but ok

[vale wing]

And that's programming term you gotta be familiar with to work with dpy

[hollow gazelle]

ctx.guild.get_role(1036640310643662848)
await ctx.author.add_roles() that will work right?

thats what i have down

[hollow gazelle]

like i said im learning dpy

[vale wing]

What python knowledge you got

You basically can't learn it if you don't know how functions work, because dpy is literally based on functions and OOP

[glad cradle]

you're not adding anything

[hollow gazelle]

wym

nvm

i dont got it

[grand willow]

add role = before ctx.guild.get_role

Then add role between the () in add_roles

[shadow vigil]

i had the same problem, my discord bot doesn't work anymore cuz i updated discord.py so better to check the discord version

[hollow gazelle]

role name or id

[grand willow]

??

[hollow gazelle]

do i put the id or the role name

[shadow vigil]

the id

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

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

You must have [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[glad cradle]

and you don't need to get the full role object, you can use discord.Object

!d discord.Object

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Object

class discord.Object(id, *, type=...)```
Represents a generic Discord object.

The purpose of this class is to allow you to create ‘miniature’ versions of data classes if you want to pass in just an ID. Most functions that take in a specific data class with an ID can also take in this class as a substitute instead. Note that even though this is the case, not all objects (if any) actually inherit from this class.

There are also some cases where some websocket events are received in [strange order](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/21) and when such events happened you would receive this class rather than the actual data class. These cases are extremely rare.

x == y Checks if two objects are equal.

x != y Checks if two objects are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the object’s hash.

[hollow gazelle]

huhhhhhhhh

im just lost now

[shadow vigil]

you could use this put the role id, that what i got from this conv

[hollow gazelle]

ik that

but idk what to put now bc he said i cant use what nuke told me

says ctx undefind

[shadow vigil]

does python say ctx is not defind?

[hollow gazelle]

no the error is that

[shadow vigil]

if not from python than ignore it

[hollow gazelle]

wait

it is bc its not starting my bot mb

[shadow vigil]

python is the lang not the ide

[grand willow]

U forgot the id

[hollow gazelle]

ok

still says it

[grand willow]

Between the ()

[hollow gazelle]

ik

[shadow vigil]

dam i hate when this happen

[shadow vigil]

bruh

[shadow vigil]

uhh ctx doesn't exist outside the function

[shadow vigil]

you should put that in line 13

[hollow gazelle]

huh

[grand willow]

Add the role = ... into the function instead of ctx.guild.get_role() that u already have

[fading dirge]

why my bot does not send the embed?

[shadow vigil]

look you need to get the role first than pass it to add_roles than done

[shadow vigil]

looks fine to me, any errors?

[fading dirge]

No, it simply does not work

[shadow vigil]

try printing something before sending the emed and make sure your bot can send embeds

if the console is empty than the cmd or event did even started

[fading dirge]

where do I see if my bot can send embeds? I gave him admin permissions

[shadow vigil]

if so then he should send embeds

[shadow vigil]

try the method that i gave you

[fading dirge]

ok

[shadow vigil]

or/and put your bot in debugging mode and watch the logs

[fading dirge]

here is the full code, im using an event handler because i will make more advanced stuff, also cogs

the main porpoise is to verify the list, if the object is not in the list, will raise the error and send an embed helping how to use the command properly

but it doesnt make sense why cant send

[shadow vigil]

i am not sure but i think its should be commands.Cog.command, do u mind if you tried that?

wait ignore my message

[fading dirge]

hm

[naive briar]

Do you have any on_mesage event?

[fading dirge]

I dont think so

[naive briar]

[fading dirge]

sure, I have

[shadow vigil]

damm

[fading dirge]

its on my main file, not the cog

[shadow vigil]

oh okay that looks fine,

[fading dirge]

the problem is only with the embed, because i tried to replace the embed only with a phrase, and worked

[mighty pilot]

Does the command work at all or just not throw the error

[fading dirge]

when i removed the embed, the message was send

the problem is with the embed, only

do I need to import something specific?

[naive briar]

!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...

[shadow vigil]

have you tried creating another embed?

[naive briar]

I don't think the Embed object takes the name kwarg

[fading dirge]

yeah, everything

I even coppied an old embed from other project

[shadow vigil]

oh that true, but should it raise an http/request error tho?

[mighty pilot]

Try taking the name off the embed. Did you mean title instead?

[fading dirge]

if this was the problem, please ban me from the server

[naive briar]

He probably have an error handler that ignores it if the error doesn't show

[fading dirge]

no, it still doesnt work

[mighty pilot]

Hmm

[naive briar]

!d discord.Embed.set_footer

Hmmmm

Weird

[fading dirge]

yeah

[shadow vigil]

okay try putting discord.py in debugging mode and it will say if trys to send embed i don't remember how exactly but it won't hurt if you tried

i think its bot.run(TOKEN,debug=1)

[mighty pilot]

How do you set debug? Never knew that was a thing

Oh nice

[fading dirge]

ok

[shadow vigil]

you can and sometimes its so useful

[mighty pilot]

I'm prob going to use it a ton now that I know it exists

[shadow vigil]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.run

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.run

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

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

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

Warning

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

[shadow vigil]

i think you should add log handler?

[fading dirge]

must be log handler

[shadow vigil]

yeah, its log handler i think i got confuse with another library

;-;

[fading dirge]

log_handler = True?

[shadow vigil]

no, add streamhandler

[fading dirge]

ok

[shadow vigil]

hold sec

[fading dirge]

i know, look

[shadow vigil]

import logging,sys
handler = logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout)
#code
...
bot.run(TOKEN,log_handler=handler)

[shadow vigil]

stream handler is better, cuz you don't need to save the logs

[fading dirge]

ok thnks

[fading dirge]

the problem now is that im using cogs, and to import cogs from the new discord.py library, must be a coroutine, and to start the client, i used client.start instead of client.run '-'

client.start doesnt have log_handler, i dont think so

and client.run is not a coroutine

[shadow vigil]

oo bruh

[fading dirge]

at least that is what i searched online, because when trying to use cog, it said that i must use await

[white citrus]

 f"> **Last Archive:** '<t:{int(s_channel.archive_timestamp.timestamp())}:F>' if '<t:{int(s_channel.archive_timestamp.timestamp())}:F>' else 'Not archived'}\n\n"

[fading dirge]

you are using ' instead of ", try replacing it

[white citrus]

where xD

[fading dirge]

f"> **Last Archive:** "<t:{int(s_channel.archive_timestamp.timestamp())}:F>"if "<t:{int(s_channel.archive_timestamp.timestamp())}:F>" else "Not archived"}\n\n"

@white citrus

[mighty pilot]

This is talking about the } after not archived I believe

It says single close brace

[shadow vigil]

like everything need await

[fading dirge]

i tried using embed in the main code, and worked

know i think that the problem is with the cog

i will try also printing something at the console after the embed

[white citrus]

yeah then the else is not anymore an else

[fading dirge]

@shadow vigil I might have figured out

[shadow vigil]

really?

what was it?

[fading dirge]

look, there is no ctx parameter

[mighty pilot]

[fading dirge]

prob is that

[slate swan]

Yes

[shadow vigil]

ctx paramter? wdym exactly

[fading dirge]

context

to send the message

oh forgot

[shadow vigil]

yes i know

[fading dirge]

there is, at the beginning of the handler

[white citrus]

if and else is not in the f string how can i fix that

[shadow vigil]

okay so did it work?

[fading dirge]

i dont know 🤓

really

oh sure, worked now

i guess the problem was in the color

[shadow vigil]

lol ik, no sm

[cursive gull]

hey im making a bot that doesn't do anything he just lives and i need to him be online 24/7 also he has no code or anything like that theres a way to make this? free

[naive briar]

There's no free hosting, check #965291480992321536

[glad cradle]

send it

[mighty pilot]

If you're comfortable DMing me your token I'll run it without code on my machine

There will be periods of 2-3 minutes of downtime throughout the day though as I'm currently having weird internet outages

[drifting cypress]

hello , i'm having a little problem:

await interaction.response.send_message("pong",components=[Button(label="Hey there!"), Button(label="Hi!")])

and it says "NameError: name 'Button' is not defined"
what should i import to get the button method ?
(tried google but haven't found any aswers)

[naive briar]

From the discord.ui

!d discord.ui.Button

[drifting cypress]

thx

[hollow gazelle]

how do i make it so u can only use the command in one channel?

[slate swan]

can someone help me with something

[hollow gazelle]

what is it

[slate swan]

try:
  name = input("\033[31mClick any key to return to menu")
except KeyboardInterrupt:
  print(x)
  time.sleep(5)``` whenever i use this it just closes the application

i dont know why

[hollow gazelle]

do u open it in cmd or vsc to see the error

[slate swan]

cmd

[hollow gazelle]

no error?

[slate swan]

no error

[hollow gazelle]

hmm

[slate swan]

just this it just closes it

[hollow gazelle]

did u click a key tho

bc kinda says except KeyboardInterrupt:

[grand willow]

if ctx.channel.id == channel id
# the rest of the code
else:
    pass

[hollow gazelle]

kk

[slate swan]

yeah

but i just want it to reprint (X)

[grand willow]

Did u press enter?

[slate swan]

yeah

[grand willow]

Thats correct tho

[slate swan]

it just closes it when i click enter but i want it to reprint x

[grand willow]

Then add print(x) below input

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

Or they can use the asyncio library

I mean they should use it

[slate swan]

works ty

@grand willowwait but now it just makes the program stop

like it works but then after it prints the program closes

[grand willow]

Yes correct

[slate swan]

i dont want it to close though

I want it to stay open so I can continue running commands inside it

[grand willow]

so u mean like

def main:
    input("Menu")
input("Press any Key to return to the Menu")
main()

[slate swan]

yes basically

but i cant add that into my code

[grand willow]

wdym

[slate swan]

bc this

\033[39m                        ╔═╗┌─┐┌\033[36m┐┌┬┌─┐
\033[39m                        ╚═╗│ ││\033[36m││││  
print(x)```

thats what x really equals

i don't see any issue with the value of an variable

!e ```py
x = """
\033[39m ╔═╗┌─┐┌\033[36m┐┌┬┌─┐
\033[39m ╚═╗│ ││\033[36m││││ """
print(x)

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | 
002 |                         ╔═╗┌─┐┌┐┌┬┌─┐
003 |                         ╚═╗│ ││││││  

[slate swan]

works like any other thing

Yeah ik

im doing this

  name = input("\033[31mClick any key to return to menu")
  os.system("cls")
  print(x)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
  time.sleep(5)``` so it should print x but also still let me use the cmd prompt but instead it just closes

so it works but soon as i enter another command it closes

[grand willow]

Yeah it doesnt let u do anything cuz theres nothing to do after it

[slate swan]

well your code is completed why would it continue later

[grand willow]

The code ends there

[slate swan]

well i want it to but idk how

this is my full code right here

import sys
import os
import time

os.system("color")
os.system("cls")

x = """
\033[39m                        ╔═╗┌─┐┌\033[36m┐┌┬┌─┐
\033[39m                        ╚═╗│ ││\033[36m││││  
"""
print(x)


Info = """

"""


command = input('''
╔═[\033[39m\033[36m]
╚═➢ ''')


if command == '1':
   os.system ("cls")
   print(x)
   print(Info)




elif command == "":
    os.system ("cls")
    print(x)

elif command == "exit":
    exit()

try:
  name = input("\033[31mClick any key to return to menu")
  os.system("cls")
  print(x)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
  time.sleep()

so how do i make it return to print(x) and it still lets me run the command 1

@slate swan@grand willow

one possible solution is function recursion

but how is this related to a discord bot

im new so i dont know how

becuase im trying to make something

its a currency bot

so how do i do a function recursion

so can u help or no?

Hello guys how do i black list role from discord.py commands ?

[slate swan]

blacklist a certain role?

[slate swan]

yeah so he cant use commands of bot

just make commands moderator-only

depends on what you want though

[sick birch]

I'd honestly just add a global check

[keen vault]

is this the channel for discord.py?

[slate swan]

discord.py and bot dev related libraries yes

[keen vault]

okay, i'm having struggles with installing discord.py 2.0

i'm new to this and saw a youtube tutorial

he told me to put this in terminal, I've downloaded python and everything I need

[slate swan]

jusst use pip install discord.py it will install 2.0

[keen vault]

it says pip isn't recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

[sick birch]

!minusmpip

[unkempt canyon]

Install packages with `python -m pip`

When trying to install a package via pip, it's recommended to invoke pip as a module: python -m pip install your_package.

Why would we use python -m pip instead of pip?
Invoking pip as a module ensures you know which pip you're using. This is helpful if you have multiple Python versions. You always know which Python version you're installing packages to.

Note
The exact python command you invoke can vary. It may be python3 or py, ensure it's correct for your system.

[sick birch]

just using pip is not recommended

[mighty pilot]

Try pip3

You have installed pip?

[keen vault]

yes

[mighty pilot]

May need to correct your path to the pip package

[keen vault]

where do I find the pip package

[mighty pilot]

There's easy tutorials on the internet, that's going to probably be your best resource for that

https://www.alphr.com/pip-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command/

[slate swan]

💀 just download get-pip.py and run it with python

https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

[hushed galleon]

i would recommend installing 3.10 since some of discord.py's dependencies dont have prebuilt wheels for python 3.11 (yet), meaning you would have to additionally install 6 gigabyte C++ build tools to compile them

if you're getting the installer from python.org, look for 3.10.8 (latest) in the downloads page, and in the installer make sure pip is included with it

[keen vault]

Right, I will try to delete 3.11 and install 3.10 then

[keen vault]

I did actually do that but it still didn't work

[hushed galleon]

perhaps itd be better for you to click the recommended install instead, rather than touching any of the options

afterwards you'll get a py command that you can use in place of python, e.g. py -m pip install discord.py

[keen vault]

there's still no module named pip

[hushed galleon]

you might want to grab a help channel for this
#❓｜how-to-get-help

[hollow agate]

@keen vault try python3 -m pip install discord.py

If not, uninstall all your Python downloads and reinstall the newest version with pip

[wanton pebble]

is discord.py practical?

or just convenient if you already know python

[sick birch]

What's your definition of "practical"?

[wanton pebble]

what i just said. sorry for not adding it to og message

[sick birch]

depends on your level of python skill. Discord.py is not really an easy library so I'd say intermediate python

[wanton pebble]

hm. are there better ways to make discord bots?

[mighty pilot]

sooo i just discovered a new website

discord.bot is website

[sick birch]

This is more of a limitation on Discord APIs part

[wanton pebble]

wtf is this

[sick birch]

Most wrappers have the same issue

[wanton pebble]

but arent bots becoming more fun now with like embeds and actual buttons and stuff

[sick birch]

That's subjective

[mighty pilot]

lol fun to look at

[wanton pebble]

i enjoy the intuitiveness to it

[sick birch]

If you find it fun, and you've got the prerequisite and motivation, go for it!

[wanton pebble]

what are those bots usually coded in though?

[sick birch]

Though discord bots get dry after a while. I haven't done any in months

[mighty pilot]

i find it fun but im a weirdo. i yearn for knowledge

[wanton pebble]

just discord.py? or are there other languages and libraries out there

[sick birch]

discord.py if python discord.JS if Node

Those are the 2 biggest competitors

[mighty pilot]

ive tried both, i prefer python

[wanton pebble]

now, unbiased, which one's more efficient and user-friendly

[sick birch]

Sure. Plenty. After the Great Abandonment ™️ many of these other libraries have gotten the spotlight

[sick birch]

Python. Unbiased, really

discord.JS is more "low level" (that is, closed to the API)

More control, less user friendliness

[mighty pilot]

python is easier but ive seen websites that offer serverless hosting that use their own syntax based on node.js

[sick birch]

I generally dislike the discord bot market

[mighty pilot]

ive noticed a LOT of bots are kinda half made and their support servers arent much help

[wanton pebble]

very true

mee6 sucks

mee6 is the worst bot

[mighty pilot]

like even the popular ones, if youre trying to do something one off with it they dont want to help because its not something they can copy paste from the chat above

[wanton pebble]

yeah

[mighty pilot]

ive been to yagpdb server countless times with a question and they tell me it cant be done, just for me to spend a weekend figuring it out on my own and it actually works

a big reason i started making and hosting my own stuff

[wanton pebble]

isnt yagpdb dedicated for like developers n stuff

and its super complicated to the average discord user to... calibrate? because of just how many options are given n stuff

[mighty pilot]

its a good free resource imo because they offer a lot of stuff without premium like custom commands with code and auto mod and stuff

[slate swan]

discord bots are in a dry spot right now until discord implements more features

we need select in modals, and better usage for the role select menus, etc...

[mighty pilot]

or more people need to get creative lol

[slate swan]

not really all the current select modals and UIs are so limited

[mighty pilot]

wym more usage for role select menus

[slate swan]

thats all it is, a full list of roles, members, etc. you can't specify or limit them.

[mighty pilot]

oh i see, like filters

reason i ask is my level bot features a split tree role assignment system

[slate swan]

yea exactly, imagine a filtered role select

[young pendant]

hmm, weird

[mighty pilot]

is there a sub-subcommand in slash commands?

[slate swan]

nah there are sub groups tho

then a sub cmd of that group

[mighty pilot]

i found a workaround no need to dive into that tonight

[slate swan]

all i use is sub cmds anymore lol

[little narwhal]

how would that work with sub commands in hybrid commands?

i assume this is with hybrid_group?

[mighty pilot]

why does this return a user object, but in a list form with no commas? much confusion

[primal token]

pardon?

[primal token]

That's the objects repr

!d object.repr

[unkempt canyon]

object.\_\_repr\_\_

object.__repr__(self)```
Called by the [`repr()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#repr "repr") built-in function to compute the “official” string representation of an object. If at all possible, this should look like a valid Python expression that could be used to recreate an object with the same value (given an appropriate environment). If this is not possible, a string of the form `<...some useful description...>` should be returned. The return value must be a string object. If a class defines [`__repr__()`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__repr__ "object.__repr__") but not [`__str__()`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__str__ "object.__str__"), then [`__repr__()`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__repr__ "object.__repr__") is also used when an “informal” string representation of instances of that class is required.

This is typically used for debugging, so it is important that the representation is information-rich and unambiguous.

[mighty pilot]

idk why it returns that though.. even the docs say you should be able to use that to pull a user obj from reactions then mention that user. which you cant do with that repr

[fading dirge]

Does anyone here know how to use sqlite and wouldnt mind helping me?

[mighty pilot]

#databases?

[fading dirge]

but its also for a discord bot, i dont know where the problem is

[mighty pilot]

i mean, idc where anything is discussed, but you may get better/quicker help there

[primal token]

The list can contain an unknown amount of Member | User objects, when you print the list the reprs would be used to display the object as a string

[fading dirge]

how can I work with 2 arguments for a specific command to execute?

[mighty pilot]

why cant i mention it then?

if its being pulled as an object

[fading dirge]

it simply doesnt work

does not recognize both of the args

only the first

[primal token]

You can?

[primal token]

i get 'list' object has no attribute 'mention'

[primal token]

because you cant mention a list, it has no such attribute, you must iterate through each User or Member and mention them since a list object is a mutable container type thats the opposite of an array as it can store various types

[mighty pilot]

its a list of 1 user so would i use result[0].mention?

[primal token]

Yep!

[mighty pilot]

thanks

[primal token]

Do know it can raise an error

[mighty pilot]

one thing at a time lol

[primal token]

You can use, LBYL or EAFP, depends on what you're doing

[alpine cove]

are you using sqlite3?

it doesnt seem like ur awaiting your db call

[fading dirge]

should i?

[alpine cove]

ofc

[fading dirge]

oh

ok thks

[alpine cove]

use aiosqlite

[primal token]

Also, you shouldn't be using f-strings, it's bad practice

[sick birch]

sqlite3 is blocking which is bad so you'd want to use like asqlite or aiosqlite or something

[alpine cove]

it has the same syntax as sqlite

[primal token]

I wouldn't recommend asqlite

[alpine cove]

you can use ? for the key

but apart from that yes you shoudlnt

*shouldnt

[mighty pilot]

I don't like to expect errors so I prefer LBYL always lol

[primal token]

I also prefer it depending on my situation

[slate swan]

is this not counter intuitive???? reactions[0].users already returns a list of users?

[sick birch]

it returns an async generator

not a list

[mighty pilot]

Yea I tried lol

Can confirm

[slate swan]

.flatten()

?

[sick birch]

i don't believe that exists on .users

[slate swan]

it should

[primal token]

no?

[mighty pilot]

Flatten isn't a thing there anymore

[slate swan]

dpy so shit im sorry

[primal token]

its an async iterator*

[sick birch]

thanks

[mighty pilot]

Big words I should know more about

[primal token]

Do know an actual async iterator object doesn't exist but if a certain object has the need requirements it would be considered one

https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator

while an async generator is an actual thing

!e

import asyncio


async def bar():
    yield 1

async def main():
    print(bar())

asyncio.run(main())

@primal token :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

<async_generator object bar at 0x7f0861c8a8d0>

[alpine cove]

use next

[mighty pilot]

So async generator is the object but the need for the object is an iterator

[alpine cove]

but i'll raise if the gen is empty

[sick birch]

small words are better, don't worry about it

[mighty pilot]

Hard agree. Lol

[sick birch]

some wise dude once said if you can explain something to a child, then you've mastered it
or something like that idk i dont read

[alpine cove]

bruh

[sick birch]

clearly i have not mastered it :p

[alpine cove]

yea its a saying and more or less true

[primal token]

iterator* an iterator implements a __next__ and can implement __iter__, while a generator implements __iter__, send, "throw", close and can implement __next__

[alpine cove]

oh f fr?

pls end me

[sick birch]

fr on jah

[alpine cove]

I rarely use gens

[mighty pilot]

Yea this is actually a pretty widely used belief. I have spent some time at a pretty difficult school and I'm horrible with remembering terms and all my tests I would describe what the answer is because I'd blank on the words and I'd get full credit lol

[alpine cove]

!e
myGen = (i for i in range(20))
print(myGen)
print(next(myGen))

[alpine cove]

you should feel embarrassed

[primal token]

?

[mighty pilot]

Off to bed. Jury duty starts bright and early

Thanks again for the help

[alpine cove]

a gen implements next

[sick birch]

Best of luck with that. Catch you later

[primal token]

It can

[alpine cove]

yea u said it didnt

[primal token]

where

[sick birch]

i could you could call it a
next gen
🥁

[alpine cove]

lmfao

[sick birch]

mfw when then funny comes back to me once a month

[alpine cove]

bruh you edited ur message even more embarrassing

at least admit your mistakes

[primal token]

I wont because I'm not incorrect?

[alpine cove]

I'm not here to help 5yr olds like you just forget it

[sick birch]

Please respect other server members and re-read our #code-of-conduct & #rules if you need to.

[primal token]

A generator can be an iterator not vice-versa, they're both different objects that have different behavior, saying

but i'll raise if the gen is empty

would be incorrect as it's a async iterator and not a generator as it doesnt implement certain methods making it a generator

[alpine cove]

yea got it

[alpine cove]

yea I usally dont work with fancy asnyc iterators...
I'll loom into that tho thx

[alpine cove]

there is no difference between an async gen and an async iter right?

[primal token]

There is!

[alpine cove]

or to be more precised there is no async gen

[primal token]

for more info look in

point taken

[stone karma]

you all have experience in different bots for runescape servers with eco and all that

[sick birch]

this is specifically for discord bots

[stone karma]

i’m trying to figure out how to make a economy bot in discord to mimic runescape wallet

[south coyote]

hey can somebody tell me how to piece this together?

@bot.tree.command(name='support')

async def support(interaction: Discord.Interaction):

@commands.has_role('verified')

async def create_channel(ctx):

    channel_name=(f"help--{ctx.author.name}")
    
    guild = ctx.guild
    
    existing_channel = discord.utils.get(guild.channels, name=channel_name)
    
    if not existing_channel:
        print(f'Creating a new channel: {channel_name}')
    
        await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(channel_name)

[vocal snow]

What are you trying to do

[south coyote]

create a channel

ive got the boilerplate in place

i think im crossing streams

[vocal snow]

Where's the code for that slash xommand

[south coyote]

hmmm

import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands


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


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

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'We have logged in as {bot.user}')
    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print (f"Synced {len(synced)} command(s)")
    except Exception as e:
        print (e)


@bot.tree.command(name='support')

async def support(interaction: Discord.Interaction):

@commands.has_role('verified')

async def create_channel(ctx):

    channel_name=(f"help--{ctx.author.name}")
    
    guild = ctx.guild
    
    existing_channel = discord.utils.get(guild.channels, name=channel_name)
    
    if not existing_channel:
        print(f'Creating a new channel: {channel_name}')
    
        await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(channel_name)




@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.errors.CheckFailure):
        await ctx.send('You do not have the correct role for this command.')

#bot.run('...')

im trying to figure out what is missing and what is supposed to be taken out

ive been working on this all afternoon

so i need to put something after the async def support(interaction: Discord.Interaction):?

im trying to let users make a help channel that includes their name in the channel

[naive briar]

All I see are syntax errors

[upbeat gust]

.. Do you know how functions work? This is basic python

[south coyote]

import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands


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


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

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'We have logged in as {bot.user}')
    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print (f"Synced {len(synced)} command(s)")
    except Exception as e:
        print (e)


@bot.tree.command(name='support')
@commands.has_role('verified')

async def create_channel(ctx):

        channel_name=(f"help--{ctx.author.name}")
    
        guild = ctx.guild
    
        existing_channel = discord.utils.get(guild.channels, name=channel_name)

async def support(interaction):
    if not existing_channel:
            print(f'Creating a new channel: {channel_name}')
    
    await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(channel_name)


@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.errors.CheckFailure):
        await ctx.send('You do not have the correct role for this command.')

#bot.run('...')

i changed it around no existing_channel and channel_name is lit up

yeah i know basic python

but how does that look so far

this runs

but im getting an error in the server when i try to invoke the command

[upbeat gust]

You aren't responding

support doesn't have a decorator
