but i dont think id need those methods, dpy can just do the http requests with their objects

[torn sail]

yeah you dont

[hushed galleon]

might as well learn a bit of fast api in the process

but ill come back to it tomorrow

thank you

but how do you ink the cog with main file

so when the main script runs it calls this cog

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.load\_extension

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

Loads an extension.

An extension is a python module that contains commands, cogs, or listeners.

An extension must have a global function, `setup` defined as the entry point on what to do when the extension is loaded. This entry point must have a single argument, the `bot`.

Changed in version 2.0: This method is now a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-coroutine "(in Python v3.11)").

How do I use args with the / commands?

When I do, I get this error: TypeError: parameter 'arg' is missing a type annotation in callback 'feedpeasant'

Code:

async def feedpeasant(interaction: discord.Interaction, arg='None') -> None:
    role = discord.utils.find(lambda r: r.name == 'mod', interaction.message.author.roles)

[paper sluice]

you need to type-annotate the args

just like you did for your interaction

[rustic edge]

so interaction.args?

[paper sluice]

no

[rustic edge]

ohhh, args: discord.Args

[paper sluice]

like arg: <the type you want the arg to be>

[rustic edge]

type meaning string?

[paper sluice]

yea

[rustic edge]

It gets underlined

[paper sluice]

the class, not a string literal

like arg: str

[rustic edge]

ooh

im very silly, ty

[rustic edge]

For most of my code, that works. Although for one part I'm not sure why it doesn't, it's the exact same layout as the others.

nvm got it

How can I use CTX with / commands since I don't know how else to check a user's roles.

[proud apex]

I'm making my Rpg game. I want to know, for example, you want to build a plant, it will take an hour to build, for example, there are workers, and they must somehow influence the time, 1 worker takes 2 minutes. How to take time from building? (discord.py, db - postgre)

[slate swan]

@commands.cooldown(1, 60*60*24, commands.BucketType.user)

is there any way to store the cooldown somewhere so after the bot restarts it will continue your time

[rare echo]

cant seem to find it in docs but is there a way to add the role icon images through a cmd?

nvm i found it

[pulsar bridge]

I got an issue connecting to Mongo, and I have no idea what's going wrong as it was working perfectly yesterday.
I'm using it for a discord bot.

  File "C:\Users\main\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 409, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "C:\Users\main\Downloads\Personal Stuff\Christmasbot\cbot.py", line 558, in on_message
    if (cb_cdata.count_documents(query_one) == 0):
  File "C:\Users\main\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\pymongo\collection.py", line 1835, in count_documents
    return self._retryable_non_cursor_read(_cmd, session)

I believe this is where the issue is, but the error is quite long. I can attach a .txt if needed. Any ideas?

[rustic edge]

How can I send a message multiple times, and not just have it reply to the user?

[lucid kite]

!paste use this for long output

[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.

Help please

[shrewd apex]

store a mapping of building and time stamps

[shrewd apex]

wdym just use edit_orginal_response if interaction else ctx.send

and edit the message

[rustic edge]

But it’s slash commands

And I want it to be separate messages

[upbeat gust]

use interaction.channel.send

Remember you still need to respond

[shrewd apex]

defer and send as chrispy says

[upbeat gust]

You can't just defer

[rustic edge]

ty

[rustic edge]

how do I role-lock a command?

[shrewd apex]

make a check

[upbeat gust]

!d discord.app_commands.default_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.default\_permissions

@discord.app_commands.default_permissions(**perms)```
A decorator that sets the default permissions needed to execute this command.

When this decorator is used, by default users must have these permissions to execute the command. However, an administrator can change the permissions needed to execute this command using the official client. Therefore, this only serves as a hint.

Setting an empty permissions field, including via calling this with no arguments, will disallow anyone except server administrators from using the command in a guild.

This is sent to Discord server side, and is not a [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check "discord.app_commands.check"). Therefore, error handlers are not called.

Due to a Discord limitation, this decorator does nothing in subcommands and is ignored.

[rustic edge]

ty

what if I want it to only work with certain roles though?

[upbeat gust]

!d discord.app_commands.checks.has_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.has\_role

@discord.app_commands.checks.has_role(item, /)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check "discord.app_commands.check") that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.MissingRole "discord.app_commands.MissingRole") if the user is missing a role, or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.app_commands.NoPrivateMessage") if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CheckFailure "discord.app_commands.CheckFailure").

New in version 2.0...

[rustic edge]

ty

[rustic edge]

I keep the / right?

[naive briar]

No

[rustic edge]

what do I replace it with then?

is it like
@discord.app_commands.checks.has_role(mod, /)?

[naive briar]

No

[shrewd apex]

/ indicates positional arguments

[upbeat gust]

https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-parameter
These functions will be used for example:

def basic(pos_only, /, pos_or_kw, *, kw_only): ...
def var(*args, **kwargs): ...
```Python has 5 types of parameters:

• Positional-only, all parameters before `/` or `*args`
This can only be passed with `basic(1, ...)`, not `basic(pos_only=1, ...)`

• Positional-or-keyword, "normal" parameters
This can be passed with either `basic(..., 2, ...)` or `basic(..., pos_or_kw=2, ...)`

• Keyword-only, all parameters after `*,` or `*args`
This can only be passed with `basic(..., kw_only=3)`, not `basic(..., 3)`

• Var-positional, `*args`, inside the function this will be a `tuple`.
This takes as many positional args as you want to give it. This is used by `print`.
`var(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...)`

• Var-keyword, `**kwargs`, inside the function this will be a `dict`.
This takes as many keyword args as you want to give it. This is used by `dict`.
`var(foo=1, bar=2, baz=3, ...)`

[rustic edge]

so @discord.app_commands.checks.has_role(item, /mod?)

sorry, im not very smart

[upbeat gust]

did you read this at all

it just means everything before it must be positional

[rustic edge]

yes

but it makes no sense

got it

[shrewd apex]

bro just(function)

[rustic edge]

yes, i got it

[shrewd apex]

just be async and takes interaction as first positional

no other args iirc

[vale wing]

What can I replace them with

I'm good at coding but bad at design 💀

[rustic edge]

Make the edges more round

[shrewd apex]

life of programmers || use turtle to draw ||

[rustic edge]

lol

[rustic edge]

is it possible to respond to the user if they don't have the correct role?

[shrewd apex]

make the centre line discord nitro and add some sparkles on side ig

[vale wing]

Yeah, handle an exception it raises

[rustic edge]

include wumpus in it

[shrewd apex]

do it in the predicate

[vale wing]

If he uses the has_role and not the custom check there's no predicate

[rustic edge]

Where would I put that? I've never done error handling

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.error

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

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

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

[vale wing]

Screw local error handlers, get global

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error

[shrewd apex]

i did say use a custom check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.on\_command\_error

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

The default command error handler provided by the bot.

By default this logs to the library logger, however it could be overridden to have a different implementation.

This only fires if you do not specify any listeners for command error.

Changed in version 2.0: `context` and `exception` parameters are now positional-only. Instead of writing to `sys.stderr` this now uses the library logger.

[rustic edge]

lol

[upbeat gust]

guys this is a slash command

[shrewd apex]

^^

use the app_command_error

[upbeat gust]

from discord import Interaction
from discord.app_commands import AppCommandError

bot = commands.Bot(...)
# Bot has a built-in tree
# but this is the same for a
# CommandTree you define.
tree = bot.tree

@tree.error
async def on_app_command_error(

!d disnake.ext.commands.Bot.on_slash_command_error 🦶

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.on\_slash\_command\_error

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

The default slash command error handler provided by the bot.

By default this prints to [`sys.stderr`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.stderr "(in Python v3.11)") however it could be overridden to have a different implementation.

This only fires if you do not specify any listeners for slash command error.

[vale wing]

Disnaek gud 👍

[rustic edge]

cause im not very smart

[upbeat gust]

that doesnt even exist (in dpy)

[rustic edge]

where do I put that in my code?

[upbeat gust]

anywhere

[rustic edge]

k

it gets underlined

i meant using the tree.error my bad i wasnt specific

[upbeat gust]

why? whats wrong

What is the best way to have a cooldown on a command?

using discord.py

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

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

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

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

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[slate swan]

@app_commands.has_permission(ban_members=True)

how can I make the user need perms to do a slash command?

[slate swan]

how do I get more information on it?

@naive briar is there a way to reset the cooldown using a command?

[naive briar]

🤨

[slate swan]

also is there a way for it not to get erased when you reset the bot

[naive briar]

Not with the cooldown

!d discord.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.dynamic\_cooldown

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

This differs from [`cooldown()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.cooldown "discord.ext.commands.cooldown") in that it takes a function that accepts a single parameter of type [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context") and must return a [`Cooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Cooldown "discord.app_commands.Cooldown") or `None`. If `None` is returned then that cooldown is effectively bypassed.

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

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

A command can only have a single cooldown.

okay, how about resetting the cooldown?

[naive briar]

!d discord.app_commands.Cooldown.reset

[unkempt canyon]

yes

is it wrong?

[bright wedge]

ctx.guild

return prefix[str(message.guild.id)]
KeyError: '1036249066193047562'

do i use int

[shrewd apex]

whats prefix

[bright wedge]

Yes

[slate swan]

ill try

return prefix[int(message.guild.id)]
KeyError: 1036249066193047562

[shrewd apex]

just put a try except

[bright wedge]

You need to create it, there is no ready function for that.

It's easy if you think it

[naive briar]

The key doesn't exist

And JSON isn't a database

[bright wedge]

Store your ids as int

[shrewd apex]

when u edit some sort of exception is raised use that

idk which exception

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

Deletes the channel.

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

[naive briar]

I don't know what do you mean 🫠

[slate swan]

how does this work

[radiant parrot]

Its confusing dw 🙂 , i think jsut gunna edit the dict easiest way forward imo

[slate swan]

i want my channel deleted by a button press

[naive briar]

Doesn't seem like it

[slate swan]

await interaction.channel.delete()?

[slate swan]

@slate swan

a

thank you

how do i make my bot only listen to user?

[naive briar]

A specific user or all users that isn't a bot

[slate swan]

how do you do all users that isnt a bot?

[naive briar]

!d discord.User.bot - check if this is True or not

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.bot

Specifies if the user is a bot account.

[slate swan]

wait

that embed looks similar

it aint workign

[slate swan]

add me i wanna ask u something

why u deleting ur messages now

and y u aint responding

can you leave me alone

.

[brazen skiff]

how to add cogs to the new discord.py slash command version?

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.add_cog

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.add\_cog

await add_cog(cog, /, *, override=False, guild=..., guilds=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Adds a “cog” to the bot.

A cog is a class that has its own event listeners and commands.

If the cog is a [`app_commands.Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Group "discord.app_commands.Group") then it is added to the bot’s [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree "discord.app_commands.CommandTree") as well.

Note

Exceptions raised inside a [`Cog`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog "discord.ext.commands.Cog")’s [`cog_load()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_load "discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_load") method will be propagated to the caller...

[shrewd apex]

provided u made ur bot with commands.Bot and not discord.Client

[slate swan]

👍

[brazen skiff]

do you have any examples of adding cogs to this?

like in github ?

[slate swan]

im not on pc rn im outside ill try help later if u havnt already resolved ur problem

[brazen skiff]

ok 👍

[shrewd apex]

bro just add cog as u do normally

[brazen skiff]

wait I confused with you both guys 🤣

[brazen skiff]

can I show my code to you?

[shrewd apex]

#discord-bots message

[brazen skiff]

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

class test(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot) -> None:
        self.bot = bot

    @app_commands.command(
        name="ping",description="whatever"
    )

    async def ping(
        self,
        interaction: discord.Interaction,
    ):
        await interaction.response.send_message(f"Pong! {round(app_commands.latency * 1000)}ms")
    

async def setup(bot: commands.Bot) -> None:
    await bot.add_cog(test(bot), guilds=[discord.Object(id=456)])
``` this is in my cogs/test.py

is there any mistakes?

[slate swan]

how do you make the bot delete 2 messages instead of only 1?

[shrewd apex]

seems fine yes

[brazen skiff]

yet it doesn't show up on my bot

[brazen skiff]

for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
    if filename.endswith('.py'):
        bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')
``` is in my main.py

[naive briar]

load_extension is a coroutine

You need to await it

[brazen skiff]

oh lemme try

[brazen skiff]

says await out of functions

[naive briar]

It only works in a async function

[brazen skiff]

if I make a function for this then where should I call it? on_ready?

[shrewd apex]

have u synced?

oh yeah await it

and call this function in setup_hook

[brazen skiff]

ok

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Bot is up and ready')
    async def setup_hook(self):
        for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
            if filename.endswith('.py'):
                await bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')

    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print(f'Synced {len(synced)} command(s)')

    except Exception as e:
        print(e)
``` the main func

[naive briar]

Reading the walkthrough would have told you that

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup_hook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup\_hook

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

A coroutine to be called to setup the bot, by default this is blank.

To perform asynchronous setup after the bot is logged in but before it has connected to the Websocket, overwrite this coroutine.

This is only called once, in [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.login "discord.ext.commands.Bot.login"), and will be called before any events are dispatched, making it a better solution than doing such setup in the [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready") event.

Warning

Since this is called *before* the websocket connection is made therefore anything that waits for the websocket will deadlock, this includes things like [`wait_for()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for "discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for") and [`wait_until_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_until_ready "discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_until_ready")...

[brazen skiff]

yep seems like I already had a setup_hook in the on_ready

[naive briar]

setup_hook is an event

[slate swan]

this isnt working

[brazen skiff]

oh like on_ready

[slate swan]

can anyone help, its supposed to post whatever the user sends into a embed

[shrewd apex]

bro learn basic python first

discord.User.bot == True 💀
its if message.author.bot:

[slate swan]

nothing is happening

[brazen skiff]

@shrewd apex the cog is not syncing 🤦‍♂️

[shrewd apex]

u don't sync the cog u do bot.tree.sync()

[vocal snow]

[slate swan]

i changed

[brazen skiff]

like in this?

[vocal snow]

changed it to what?

[slate swan]

.

[vocal snow]

this still makes no sense

what is that supposed to do

[slate swan]

dude

[slate swan]

whats the point of that line

i need my bot only respond to discord people not bots

[cold oyster]

Hey so I have a modal, How do I send the modal embed to another channel, A channel with it's ID

[vocal snow]

then that if statement does that... remove the other one

[slate swan]

so if message.author.bot:

[slate swan]

ye

[vocal snow]

anyways it wont matter

your first if statement checks the user id

it's only going to execute the rest of the code if the message author's id is that

[cold oyster]

?

[slate swan]

oh right

[vocal snow]

what do you mean by the modal embed

[slate swan]

fetch the channel and then send the embed thru it

i cant send much im on phone

[cold oyster]

dont get how do i edit the inter thing

[slate swan]

could u send ur current code and ill see if i can try

[cold oyster]

ok

    async def callback(self, interaction) -> None:
        embed = disnake.Embed(title="Apply for Pilot")
        for key, value in interaction.text_values.items():
            embed.add_field(name=key, value=value, inline=False)
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed)


@client.slash_command() 
async def apply_pilot(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction):
    await inter.response.send_modal(modal=MyModal())

[slate swan]

ah ill have to look at it on pc @cold oyster srry

[cold oyster]

alr

[bright wedge]

how i can make a slash command works in all guilds?

@tree.command(name = "test", description = "My first application Command")
async def first_command(interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message("Hello!")

[vocal snow]

sync the tree globally

[bright wedge]

await tree.sync(guild=None)

[vocal snow]

you can just await tree.sync()

[slate swan]

in ur callback try do channel = interaction.guild.get_channel() and put your channel id in the parenthesis then under just type await channel.send(embed=embed) this is what i think ur tryna achieveme btw

[bright wedge]

ty

[brazen skiff]

should I've mentioned earlier that I'm trying to use slash commands? If that make any change

[mystic birch]

hey, when I launch my bot it says process with exited code 1 do you have an idea please?

[cold oyster]

  File "c:\Users\HP\OneDrive\Desktop\Folder\Qbot\main.py", line 76, in callback

@client.slash_command() 
async def apply_pilot(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction):
    await inter.response.send_modal(modal=MyModal())```

My code

[slate swan]

its just channel.send

[cold oyster]

wdym

[slate swan]

not send_message

just send

[cold oyster]

oh ok

[mystic birch]

hey, when I launch my bot it says process with exited code 1 do you have an idea please?

[cold oyster]

It's send the embed, But in the modal it says "Something went wrong"

[slate swan]

could u screenshot

[cold oyster]

wait

It still send the image

@slate swan

[slate swan]

alr

[sharp sky]

Hmm

[slate swan]

@slate swan ur an alt of a scammer

```

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

[mystic birch]

are these aphostrophes?

[slate swan]

no?

[slate swan]

backticks

[slate swan]

you are dont lie as soon as i saw that embed from your message i knew instantly you had contact with my friend and now hes told me that ur an alt of a scammer who makes scam roblox servers

[mystic birch]

thanks

[slate swan]

no I don’t

I’m not a alt either 💀

You got no proof either

[mystic birch]

suddenly I can't launch my bot you know why? I put the token lower

[slate swan]

And you know nothing abt what I do and my story so yeah

[naive briar]

Go ask in discord.gg/djs

[mystic birch]

[slate swan]

!fstring

[unkempt canyon]

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

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

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

@commands.is_owner() how do i put discord user id instead

[slate swan]

!custom-check

[unkempt canyon]

Custom Command Checks in discord.py

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

from discord.ext.commands import check, Context

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

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

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

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

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

[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.

[little peak]

Can someone help?

[naive briar]

Which library are you using

[slate swan]

this is a dm command that sends a message to a specific user but for some reason it only sends the the first word of what I want to send.
e,g If I wanted the bot to send hello world it would only send hello

how do i make my bot automatically delete a embed it sends after a few seconds

[naive briar]

!d discord.TextChannel.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.11)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.11)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[naive briar]

Set the delete_after

[little peak]

When i try to do this command the Bot does not anwser i want the bot to send the link and the person who uses the command to be able to put in some text that comes after the link

`#Send message "video" when user sends /video

huh

[naive briar]

What's the problem

[little peak]

it doesnt work

[naive briar]

That doesn't help me understand why

And I've never seen manage_commands in discord.py before

[little peak]

The bot starts but when i try the command it says application doesnt react

i can use /video [text: test]
but when i send it it wont respont

[naive briar]

Do you get any errors in the console

[little peak]

wait

An exception has occurred while executing command video:

[naive briar]

It seems like the library is calling the slash command's callback with the option names as kwargs. Try changing the option name to sentence or changing the sentence argument to text

[little peak]

thanks

[little peak]

now it gives a text but not the link also there a spaces between every letter

[naive briar]

!e

text = "Hello, world!"
new_text = ""

for char in text:

oh

but it wont send the link

oh wait

i think i know how

[mighty yarrow]

how to stop bot command discord.py?

[little peak]

how do i put the inputed text behind the link?

[maiden fable]

!join check this out

[unkempt canyon]

Joining Iterables

If you want to display a list (or some other iterable), you can write:

colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue', 'yellow']
output = ""
separator = ", "
for color in colors:
    output += color + separator
print(output)
# Prints 'red, green, blue, yellow, '

However, the separator is still added to the last element, and it is relatively slow.

A better solution is to use str.join.

colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue', 'yellow']
separator = ", "
print(separator.join(colors))
# Prints 'red, green, blue, yellow'

An important thing to note is that you can only str.join strings. For a list of ints,
you must convert each element to a string before joining.

integers = [1, 3, 6, 10, 15]
print(", ".join(str(e) for e in integers))
# Prints '1, 3, 6, 10, 15'

[naive briar]

I already know about it

[maiden fable]

Ah okay

[stark zenith]

why wont it delete the embed after sleeping for 4 seconds??

[upbeat otter]

it's because messages can be deleted, embeds cannot

and where is embedvar even coming from

[stark zenith]

embeds cant be deleted at all?

thats where embed came from

[upbeat otter]

uh...no?
a message contains embeds
so delete the message containing embeds

[stark zenith]

im confused by what u mean

[naive briar]

channel.send returns the sent message

Store that in a variable then delete it

[stark zenith]

alright

[naive briar]

!d discord.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.delete

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

Deletes the message.

Your own messages could be deleted without any proper permissions. However to delete other people’s messages, you must have [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages").

Changed in version 1.1: Added the new `delay` keyword-only parameter.

[naive briar]

Or just set the delete_after argument

[naive briar]

It took too long to respond

[cloud dawn]

Also this is not the way to do this.

Register globally instead.

[stark zenith]

keep getting erros when doing this

[naive briar]

What's the error then

[slate swan]

For the await channel.send make it into a variable and call the variable with .delete() at the end

[cloud dawn]

use the delete_after lol

[slate swan]

Or that

[mighty yarrow]

Why replit is faster than my vscode

Wtf

[slate swan]

Your pc specs lol

[cloud dawn]

lmao

repl.it is 512mb ram and like 1.5ghz zo doubt

[slate swan]

Is that an arg?

[cloud dawn]

kwarg

[stark zenith]

can u give me example on where to put that

cant find anything online

[slate swan]

how?

[stark zenith]

like that?

[slate swan]

r u using buttons

[cloud dawn]

Don't assign a guild.

[stark zenith]

no

i got this error

[slate swan]

c = await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(
        f"Ticket {interaction.user.id}", overwrites=overwrites)
      await c.send(
        f"{interaction.user.mention} **Please wait for staff**, Your **next** ticket can be open in **5m**. **Staff members** do **{prefix}close** to **close this ticket**. **(#{client.ticketnumber})**"

[slate swan]

this would be easier to do

[stark zenith]

im not using buttons @slate swan

[slate swan]

Why don't you make message send in channel using the button it's easier and more convenient

yea^

and you can check if they have a ticket

Using an event is very excessive

ticket = utils.get(interaction.guild.text_channels,
                       name=f"ticket-{interaction.user.id}")
    if ticket is not None:
      await interaction.response.send_message(
        f"{interaction.user.mention} you already have a ticket open here {ticket.mention}.",

[stark zenith]

because i need my bot to send a message as soon as a ticket is made via ticket tool then to delete itself after a few seconds

[slate swan]

yea

[slate swan]

Yea, you can do it the way I said lol

here @winter coral

[stark zenith]

but i cant have buttons

[slate swan]

You can still do it

[slate swan]

@stark zenith *

[stark zenith]

i dont want buttons

at all

[slate swan]

its better

[stark zenith]

i js want a quick message saying "waiting for a sessiosn" then it deletes itself after a few seconds

[stark zenith]

alright

[slate swan]

c = await ctx.guild.create_text_channel(f"Ticket {ctx.author.id}")
      message = await c.send(
        f"{ctx.author.mention} waiting for sesson"
      await asyncio.sleep(5)
      await message.delete()

[slate swan]

Fair enough, but put the channel create from command into variable for example
chnanel_created = guild.Chanel.create or whatever

msgg = chnanel_created.send("hi")
time.sleep(5)
msgg.delete()

A lot more efficient

[slate swan]

Perfect example

yea lol

just took it from mine 😎

Lol I have done the same thing with mine too

I mean it's most convenient way so I'm not surprised

yea

i love making slash commands]

Ngl i use to use discord py but now I use nextcord due to the fact of discord py devs randomly quiting the project

What database

json

ik its not the best but

What?

idk

json isn't a database

it is now

💀

[alpine cove]

-_-

[slate swan]

Why not just use mongo db

idk how

[alpine cove]

or sqlite

or psql if ur a beginner

[open yoke]

Why is pip install discord working with 3.10 but not 3.11?

[sick birch]

I don't think discord.py supports v3.11

After all it only released a few weeks ago

[alpine cove]

^

[slate swan]

Mongo db is easier for beginners

https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_mongodb_getstarted.asp

[mighty pilot]

I haven't used mongodb myself but how is it easier? You literally write what you want done in sql and it does it

[slate swan]

https://youtu.be/rE_bJl2GAY8

[slate swan]

Use it and you will see why

[sick birch]

People sometimes think it's easier because it's unstructured

But for something like Discord a relational database is more fitting due to the relational nature of its data

[mighty pilot]

I need structure in my life

[alpine cove]

lol

[sick birch]

same friend

[slate swan]

Correct that's why

[teal glade]

What database is best for discord.py?

[slate swan]

Whatever you prefer

Some people prefer SQLite I personally prefer mongo

[teal glade]

hmm yea i've seen many use mongo

[open yoke]

any idea when it will?

[slate swan]

Fun fact: when discord was first released it used mongo db but they had to migrate to Casandra due to a lot of issues

i prefer pickle

[stark zenith]

@slate swan this wont work see anything wrong i could fix?

[alpine cove]

really depends

[slate swan]

Remove the first channel send and in 2nd one put await in front of it

msgg = await channel.send(embed=embedVar)

[stark zenith]

ah alr ty

[stark zenith]

thiserror now

[mighty pilot]

it was never awaited so what do you think needs to be done

[slate swan]

Take a minute and read the error

[stark zenith]

oh im dumb 💀

[alpine cove]

agreed

[mighty pilot]

Woo learning 📈

[stark zenith]

alright i think i got lemme run it

yeah learning py i think im doing good so far

started 3 days ago so yeah

[alpine cove]

I think its the easiest error / warning you can get

[stark zenith]

works 👍 thanks guys

[mighty pilot]

Yea I love it when they tell me exactly what I missed

[slate swan]

@client.tree.command(name='sell', description='Sell your items here!')
@app_commands.describe(amount='How much to sell?')
@app_commands.describe(choices='Choose an item!')
@app_commands.choices(choices=[

  discord.app_commands.Choice(name='Nametag', value=3)
])
async def sell(interaction: discord.Interaction, choices: discord.app_commands.Choice[int] ,amount: int):
  if choices == 1:

how can I see what the user put for the choice?

[slate swan]

Discord py is asynchronous so you need to await shit

[mighty pilot]

What do you mean by see what they put

[alpine cove]

using choices?

-_-

[slate swan]

chill idk how bruh

[slate swan]

What's a tree I've never seen it before

[slate swan]

.

[alpine cove]

read the docs

[slate swan]

i dont understand the docs?

[mighty pilot]

I don't even understand the question

What exactly are you trying to see

[slate swan]

im trying to run a command based off the user input

[mighty pilot]

So what's the problem? If choices == sunfish: do a thing

[slate swan]

yea basically

[mighty pilot]

So what's the question

[slate swan]

got it

if choice.value == 1:

[mighty pilot]

Tree is for slash commands https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=tree#discord.ext.commands.Bot.tree

[slate swan]

thats when you go touch grass

[mighty pilot]

Never heard of her

[slate swan]

Why not bot.slash_command()

[sick birch]

discordpy does have slash_command

It uses a tree as a container for application commands

[slate swan]

design choices lol, danny didn't want to implement it in the commands framework but another app_commands one

Also the tree gives more control over what you can do with app commands

[slate swan]

can someone help me make a sync command

i tried here but i get this error

[mighty pilot]

I didn't know there were any differences tbh I just thought it made more sense to use the tree

[slate swan]

🗿 read the source code and you'll find much more interesting stuff there

[mighty pilot]

Did you sync your sync command to make it accessible lol

[slate swan]

imagine syncing a command to sync a command that syncs commands

[slate swan]

?

[visual trellis]

can someone help me why my command isnt working

[alpine cove]

well show the actual command

[slate swan]

the color is suppose to be a integer and you gave it a string

[alpine cove]

did u put smth like: discord.Color("red")

[alpine cove]

bruh

just dont pass color

or do color=None

[mighty pilot]

That's a good one

[slate swan]

@client.tree.command(name='sync', description='If commands arent working or there oudated, use this!')
async def sync(interaction: discord.Interaction):

can someone please help me fix this?

[visual trellis]

same error

[alpine cove]

send ur code

[visual trellis]

@client.command()

)
embed.set_footer(text = 'this is a footer')

await client.say(embed=embed)

[alpine cove]

I told you to not pass color

[visual trellis]

did you

[alpine cove]

u want my help?

[open yoke]

any idea when discord.py will start working with 3.11?

[visual trellis]

your helping now anyone can help but your choosing too

[alpine cove]

nope

[alpine cove]

rephrase that

[slate swan]

it works with 3.11....

[visual trellis]

your already choosing to help so I don't need to ask

[slate swan]

@visual trellis he doesnt have to help...

[visual trellis]

ik he dont need to

hence why i said hes choosing too

[open yoke]

not for me

when I try to do pip install discord it gives me an error

[slate swan]

yes and when an error gets raised , you should read it
it has the solution mentioned

and its pip install discord.py, not pip install discord

[stark zenith]

anyone know how i can 2 embeds together like this? cant find any resources online helping me with it

[open yoke]

i try both
same error

[slate swan]

send(embeds=[embed1, embed2])
its literally in the docs

[stark zenith]

thanks

[alpine cove]

Can someone help me make a on message event, so basically if someone says a word, lets put "free" as an example, It says don't beg for free stuff, then deletes the users message, which in my case is free

jsons don't have integer Keys
you meant to use str(message.guild.id) there maybe
and stop using json as a database!

i dont know database so i am using json for now

[warped mirage]

Can someone help me with this py @client.event async def on_message(message, inter: discord.Interaction, user: discord.User): message = "free"

[slate swan]

u do discord.Member

[warped mirage]

How can i do so if someone says that word, in any channel, bot deletes the users message and Pings it and says: This word is blacklisted

[slate swan]

message.content btw

[warped mirage]

message: message.content?

[slate swan]

message = "free"

[warped mirage]

All I need is a small event

[slate swan]

in here

[warped mirage]

@client.event
async def on_message(message, inter: discord.Interaction, user: discord.Member):
    message.content = "free"```

I have this now

[slate swan]

if message.content == “free”:
await message.delete()

something like that i think

u should use if statment

[warped mirage]

yea

And i need to it sees what user

So it pings ig

[slate swan]

if message.content == “free”:
await message.delete()
await message.author.send(f“{message.author.mention} this is a blacklisted word”

something like that i think so hard on mobile

embed.colour=int("0x" + colour, 16)
so thats what i did how do i do that if they put a color like red it will be red and not w hex

[slate swan]

@warped mirage try this

[warped mirage]

@client.event
async def on_message(message, inter: discord.Interaction, user: discord.Member):
    message.content = "free"
    if message.content == "free":
        await message.delete()
        await message.author.send(f"{message.author.mention} this is a blacklisted word");```

so this?

[slate swan]

without message.content = "free"

cuz u already did it

[warped mirage]

@client.event
async def on_message(message, inter: discord.Interaction, user: discord.Member):
    if message.content == "free":
        await message.delete()
        await message.author.send(f"{message.author.mention} this is a blacklisted word");```?

[slate swan]

u do
[str(join)]: i think

try that maybe it wont work

[naive briar]

What are you even trying to do

[mighty pilot]

I think you want message.channel.send instead of message.author.send

[feral frost]

how can i make it so that when i input a number and another one that it becomes 1 for example 2 and 1 it becomes 21

[warped mirage]

i want so it pings the user

[mighty pilot]

That's what the f string is for

[feral frost]

might be a weird question

[open yoke]

I've downloaded the thing it told me to

doesn't work still

[naive briar]

Convert them to string then join them together

[warped mirage]

@client.event

err: TypeError: on_message() missing 1 required positional argument: 'member'

How can i fix?

[feral frost]

how ?

[slate swan]

embed.colour=int("0x" + colour, 16)
so thats what i did how do i do that if they put a color like red it will be red and not w hex

[naive briar]

on_message event should have only message in the parameter

[warped mirage]

member isnt defined now.

[naive briar]

Then get the member from the message

[warped mirage]

How?

[naive briar]

!d discord.Message.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.author

A Member that sent the message. If channel is a private channel or the user has the left the guild, then it is a User instead.

[warped mirage]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content == "free":
        await message.delete()
        await message.channel.send(f"{member.mention},\nDon't beg for free stuff...\nUse [#951380543998663123](/guild/267624335836053506/channel/951380543998663123/) to beg!", after_delete = 10)```

this is what I have

[slate swan]

didnt i already sent u sum ab the author

[warped mirage]

Doesnt work

[slate swan]

🥲

[warped mirage]

And either way, it starts with "member"

[warped mirage]

Can someone please help?

[feral frost]

ok

[slate swan]

embed.colour=int("0x" + colour, 16)
so thats what i did how do i do that if they put a color like red it will be red and not w hex

[slate swan]

u didnt bring member in it, example.

async def on_message(message, member: discord.Member):

[warped mirage]

So how do i fix?

[slate swan]

bring member syntax in on_message

[naive briar]

Don't

[primal token]

You cant

on_message is a namespace which only takes 1 argument upon calling

[slate swan]

message.author?

[primal token]

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[warped mirage]

So i showed what i have atm, can someone help me fix?

[slate swan]

whats the problem tho

[warped mirage]

currently, member is not defined

[slate swan]

embed.colour=int("0x" + colour, 16)```
so thats what i did how do i do that if they put a color like red it will be red and not w hex i made that members can make an embed and they need to choose color

[slate swan]

message.author?

[warped mirage]

I want so it pings the member

[slate swan]

wait so message.author.mention doesnt work?

[slate swan]

i tried

[warped mirage]

It deleted message but

 await message.author.mention(f"Don't beg for free stuff...\nUse [#951380543998668810](/guild/267624335836053506/channel/951380543998668810/) to beg!", after_delete = 10)
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable```

[slate swan]

bro

in the f string

[warped mirage]

?

[cloud dawn]

The f string is what you notice first lol

[mighty pilot]

Just like you did in the f string here

[warped mirage]

How do i fix?

[feral frost]

how can i do it with input numbers like i have this

@bot.command()
async def f(ctx, express: str):
    print("".join(map(str, express)))
``` but it only gives 1 number and not 2 or 3 or 4

[slate swan]

await message.channel.send(f”{message.author.mention}”)

[slate swan]

await message.channel.send()

[naive briar]

They told you like 5+ times

[warped mirage]

thats what i did

[slate swan]

bro

!e

u did this

[unkempt canyon]

Missing required argument

code

Command Help

!eval [python_version] <code, ...>
Can also use: e

Run Python code and get the results.

This command supports multiple lines of code, including code wrapped inside a formatted code block. Code can be re-evaluated by editing the original message within 10 seconds and clicking the reaction that subsequently appears.

If multiple codeblocks are in a message, all of them will be joined and evaluated, ignoring the text outside of them.

By default your code is run on Python's 3.11 beta release, to assist with testing. If you run into issues related to this Python version, you can request the bot to use Python 3.10 by specifying the python_version arg and setting it to 3.10.

We've done our best to make this sandboxed, but do let us know if you manage to find an issue with it!

[slate swan]

@warped mirage

[feral frost]

help

[cloud dawn]

This won't even work.

[slate swan]

it wont?

[cloud dawn]

And why would you f string a single variable

[cloud dawn]

String isn't closed.

[slate swan]

its hard on mob sorry

[cloud dawn]

await message.channel.send(message.author.mention)

[slate swan]

im just saying to put it in the f string cos he wanted to say something else with it

@client.event

[slate swan]

ty

@warped mirage just copy what he sent at this point tbh ^

[feral frost]

how can i do it with input numbers ?

just like a calc like this

@bot.command(aliases=["calc"])
async def calculator(ctx, *, expression:str):
    calculation = eval(expression)
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Calculator:", color=color)
    embed.add_field(name="Input:", value=f"{expression}", inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name="Result:", value=f"{calculation}", inline=False)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[naive briar]

I don't know what do you mean by that

[feral frost]

ill explain

[feral frost]

so i have this

async def f(ctx, express: str):
    print("".join(map(str, express)))```

[naive briar]

And someone can do some naughty things if you're using eval for the calculator

[feral frost]

but this doesnt work cuz it only print the first number

[feral frost]

?

[feral frost]

like what ?

[naive briar]

You're only getting one argument

[feral frost]

how can i make it more ?

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def f(ctx, express: str, number1: str, number2: str):
    print("".join(map(str, express)))```

[naive briar]

https://nedbatchelder.com/blog/201206/eval_really_is_dangerous.html

[feral frost]

but like i want infinite numberos

[slate swan]

i believe, or im wrong

[feral frost]

that can work but only with 3 number or smth

[feral frost]

ow

[slate swan]

Yes, but if you keep assigning it, you can have more.

[feral frost]

what does os.system('clear') do ?

[naive briar]

Clear the console

[naive briar]

You can do something like
https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/basic_bot.py#L45-L47

[unkempt canyon]

examples/basic_bot.py lines 45 to 47

async def choose(ctx, *choices: str):
    """Chooses between multiple choices."""
    await ctx.send(random.choice(choices))```

[cloud dawn]

clears the console on linux systems

[slate swan]

clears the console

[feral frost]

is this for infinite numberos ?

[slate swan]

Not just linux

[cloud dawn]

Yes just linux, windows is cls

[feral frost]

what am i supposed to do with this ? it only gives the last given number

[naive briar]

What do you mean

[feral frost]

look

[naive briar]

What does your code look like

[smoky patrol]

hey guys
i worked on my discord bot and i want to use like a restart command do you know how to code it

[feral frost]

@bot.command(description='For when you wanna settle the score some other way')
async def choose(ctx, *choices: str):
"""Chooses between multiple choices."""
await ctx.send(random.choice(choices))

[naive briar]

You're choosing random element from it

[cloud dawn]

it has to be a list

[feral frost]

what should i do ?

[pearl inlet]

@bot.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
    print(payload.member.id)
    channel = bot.get_channel(payload.channel_id)
    user = bot.get_user(id=payload.user_id)
    print(str(user.name))
    print("reaction added")
    if (payload.member != bot.user):
        await channel.send((user.id, "just reacted to a message!"))

The goal is to send a message when someone adds a reaction to a message for some reason user is returning "none"

[smoky patrol]

im coding with disnake

[naive briar]

!d discord.Client.get_user - the user was not found

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.get\_user

get_user(id, /)```
Returns a user with the given ID.

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

[naive briar]

And you must have members intent enabled

[honest shoal]

just do os.system("clear")?

[cloud dawn]

That's not the same.

[smoky patrol]

It has to logout fron the bot and re login

[slate swan]

you need to install that too, only downloading wont help

[honest shoal]

os.execv() later

[naive briar]

!d discord.Client.close

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.close

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

Closes the connection to Discord.

[open yoke]

install what

[naive briar]

!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.

[smoky patrol]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/miqibapaye

dont know where to implement it

[honest shoal]

it's a function

use brackets

[smoky patrol]

can u show me how i should do it?

[slate swan]

"Visual studio C++ not found" thats what the first line in the image says, take a hint maybe?

[smoky patrol]

cause i dont know how

[slate swan]

can someone give me a spicy layout for a help embed 🙏 (@)

[honest shoal]

in python and in every other language you use brackets to run a function
so bot.close()

[slate swan]

do you use cogs?

[slate swan]

nah

[open yoke]

i downloaded that

[slate swan]

but I can edit it if it is one

[smoky patrol]

like this

[open yoke]

guess what, didnt work

[slate swan]

and now you install it....

[honest shoal]

yes

[smoky patrol]

ok let me try

[slate swan]

yeah it works for hundreds of people but not you, cool

[slate swan]

are you gonna hardcode the cmd then>

yea

[honest shoal]

use slash commands in this modern era

[open yoke]

i did that bro

[honest shoal]

they are well descriptive

[slate swan]

like this

[smoky patrol]

and how can restart it

[slate swan]

added it to path?

[naive briar]

!d disnake.Client.start

[honest shoal]

aren't slash cmd descriptions enough?

[slate swan]

?

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Client.start

await start(token, *, reconnect=True, ignore_session_start_limit=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

A shorthand coroutine for [`login()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Client.login "disnake.Client.login") + [`connect()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Client.connect "disnake.Client.connect").

[slate swan]

disssssss 🐍

i suck at making embeds fr

[naive briar]

Their docs pages looks beautiful

[honest shoal]

I mean, you don't really need help menus for slash commands

[slate swan]

Nextcord ->>

[slate swan]

yea but its still looks neat, dyno has it, disboard, dank memer, list goes on

[slate swan]

at current state, hell nah
the rewrite might be interesting tho

if i were to rate discord libs it would be like
hikari
disnake
dpy
nextcord

[smoky patrol]

hm dont know where to put it

[slate swan]

i mean if you make each cmd like this then you dont need it

pycord doesnt exist ;-;

[mighty pilot]

I'm planning to make a help menu for my slash commands. However, mine in particular deals with 10+ roles being stored as well as channel options and stuff so it needs a bit more explaining

[cloud dawn]

You forgor discord_components

[slate swan]

and discord_utils.slash

[cloud dawn]

what is pycord?

[slate swan]

Pycord is super underdeveloped

how can I add a cooldown to slash cmds...

ffmpeg wrapper

!pip pycord

[unkempt canyon]

pycord v0.1.1

Convenient wrapper on top of FFmpeg

[smoky patrol]

im very confused

[open yoke]

yup

i had some dude trying to help me yesterday

i did it in front of him and even he was confused

[honest shoal]

that's a different case when it's something complicated for users

[mighty pilot]

[naive briar]

!d discord.app_commands.Cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Cooldown

class discord.app_commands.Cooldown(rate, per)```
Represents a cooldown for a command.

New in version 2.0.

[honest shoal]

is there such thing in disnake?

[naive briar]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Cooldown

class disnake.ext.commands.Cooldown(rate, per)```
Represents a cooldown for a command.

[honest shoal]

so it's same for slash and prefix based cmds

[slate swan]

well that's actually an issue of some libraries that discord.py depend on, they dont' have wheels for python 3.11 built yet, eventho they have pull requests for that its taking time

[open yoke]

oh alright

do you know when it'll be fixed or nah?

[slate swan]

that's upto those libraries' maintainers, i can;t say anythin

@client.tree.command(name="beg", description="Beg for money!")
@commands.cooldown(1, 10, commands.BucketType.user)

@client.event
async def on_application_command_error(ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
    await ctx.send(error)
  else: 
    raise error

why doesnt this work

[cloud dawn]

You are using a message cooldown on a slash command.

[naive briar]

There's no on_application_command_error event

[slate swan]

app_commands.CommandOnCooldown

[naive briar]

[slate swan]

and this, you'll be using @client.tree.error instead

[slate swan]

how can I make it be for slash commands?

there's something called on_app_command_error but idk what class it belongs to

[cloud dawn]

Scroll up 10 messages

#discord-bots message

[slate swan]

@discord.app_commands.Cooldown(1, 10)

[cloud dawn]

Not that easy

[slate swan]

@client.tree.command(name="beg", description="Beg for money!")
@app_commands.checks.cooldown(1, 15, key=lamdba i: (i.user.id))

what about this

[cloud dawn]

Yup

I've made a function if you're interested.

[slate swan]

im interested

[smoky patrol]

How can i build in a simple rich presence, my friends told me it does not work

[cloud dawn]

I suggest building the error on the base of the tree

[slate swan]

?

[cloud dawn]

I've made it in my own bot as well, example: ```py
class CmdTree(CommandTree):
"""A subclass of CommandTree to override on_error"""

async def on_error(self, interaction: Interaction, error: AppCommandError) -> None:
    # Per usual, getting the original error
    error = getattr(error, 'original', error)

    log.debug("Reached error_handler")

    if isinstance(error, (NotFound, HTTPException, Forbidden)):
        log.warn(f"'{interaction.command.name}' command raised {error.status} {error.__class__}")
        raise error
    elif isinstance(error, CommandOnCooldown):
        await interaction.response.send_message(
            f"This command is on cooldown! Time left: {time_fmt(error.retry_after)}", ephemeral=True)
    else:
        raise error

@slate swan A lot on slash isn't easy, many work arounds and things need to be taken into account.

[slate swan]

im watching a yt vid and it works for him ._.

[cloud dawn]

What date was the video released?

[glad cradle]

Isn't the purpose of a global error handler to handle errors? So why do you raise the error

[slate swan]

5 months ago

[slate swan]

unhandled errors shall be raised, or atleast logged somewhere

what if there's some error that's totally random, it will just be silenced

[cloud dawn]

Because if it is any other error I most likely made a coding error, this isn't a public bot so I don't have any permissions errors etc anyways.

!d discord.User.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.mention

property mention```
Returns a string that allows you to mention the given user.

[slate swan]

that mentions the command author

[cloud dawn]

That's it.

[glad cradle]

ik but he's raising the error after logging the error, they aren't unhandled

[vivid cipher]

Help please!!!

@bot.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *args, amount = 1):
    await ctx.channel.purge(limit = amount)
    embed = discord.Embed(color = 0x177121, description = args) 
    await ctx.send(embed = embed)

If I write a command, for example, >repeat hi hello, then I get parentheses in the message (clearly visible on the screenshot). How to remove brackets?

[cloud dawn]

I'm only handling 4 error types yes.

Because I don't have any more errors to handle.

[slate swan]

can somone help me fix my slash command cooldown

[slate swan]

.

[cloud dawn]

@bot.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *, args: str, amount: int = 1):
    await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount)
    embed = discord.Embed(color=0x177121, description=args) 
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

Also this is called an echo not repeat, I'd be confused lol

Also just do ctx.message.delete()

[primal token]

!d str.join

[vivid cipher]

Thanks

[unkempt canyon]

str.join

str.join(iterable)```
Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in *iterable*. A [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") will be raised if there are any non-string values in *iterable*, including [`bytes`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes "bytes") objects. The separator between elements is the string providing this method.

[cloud dawn]

Why join if his * is just in the wrong place.

[primal token]

I was just answering his question?

In this case, yes args should be a kwarg, but if he wants to convert the tuple into a string he would use that, i may be incorrect in this context but i answered his question

[sick birch]

Did you import discord?

no worries

[exotic totem]

Can anyone tell me why it only returns the name of the author of the message, and not the message as well

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

class Myclient(discord.Client):
    async def on_ready(self):
        print('Logged on as {0}'.format(self.user))

        print('Message from {0.author}: {0.content}'.format(message))

client = Myclient(intents=discord.Intents.default())
client.run('token')

I already tried to change the intend to 'all'

Didn't work

  ])
  view = View()
  view.add_item(select)
  await ctx.send("test menus", view=view)

[sick birch]

Did you enable the appropriate intents on the developer dashboard?

color=0xFFFF00

Hm?

[exotic totem]

yep

[sick birch]

Could you show the new code with all intents?

[exotic totem]

It's basically the same thing, what changes is that the bot doesn't even run

[sick birch]

Errors?

[exotic totem]

That one

[sick birch]

Are all 3 of the privledged intents enabled?

[exotic totem]

Just the last one

[sick birch]

Make sure to enable all 3, then run your bot again with discord.Intents.all()

[exotic totem]

It worked!

Thanks

when a ticket is opened via ticket tool i want my bot to copy the id i send so i can add the person to the ticket, this is how far i came anything i can fix?

[slate swan]

please someone help me 😭

[mighty pilot]

What exactly is the problem you're having

[slate swan]

😩

[slate swan]

when i do ztest it sends the button to

instead of just the menu

[mighty pilot]

Because your command sends the view

[slate swan]

yea

but how can I make it so it only sends the menu

[mighty pilot]

The view is the buttons

[slate swan]

ok

but how can i make it only send the menu....

[mighty pilot]

Don't send the buttons with view=view

[slate swan]

then what do I do?!!?!??!?!

[mighty pilot]

Create the menu in the interaction instead of the button view? Remove the items from the view before sending it?

[slate swan]

what

[mighty pilot]

Show me what it does currently in discord

[slate swan]

i dont want the button

  view = View()
  view.remove_item(View)
  view.add_item(select)

  await ctx.send("test menus", view=select)

i tried this but it doesnt work

wait

  view = View()
  view.remove_item(view)
  view.add_item(select)

  await ctx.send("test menus", view=view)

does the same thing

[mighty pilot]

Show the entirety of your view code now

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def test(ctx):
  select = Select(options=[
    
  discord.SelectOption(label="Cloudy", emoji='☁️', description='cloudy weather'),

  view = View()
  view.remove_item(view)
  view.add_item(select)

Hold up just don't send the view and instead send the select lol

What platform are you running your code on?

Is it local?

[faint mural]

Yes it is local (linux)

[sick birch]

Hm. It might just be on Discord's end then

Maybe i have to open another issue then :sight:
