!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop.after_loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop.after\_loop

@after_loop```
A decorator that registers a coroutine to be called after the loop finishes running.

The coroutine must take no arguments (except `self` in a class context).

Note

This coroutine is called even during cancellation. If it is desirable to tell apart whether something was cancelled or not, check to see whether [`is_being_cancelled()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop.is_being_cancelled "discord.ext.tasks.Loop.is_being_cancelled") is `True` or not.

anyone know if the command invocation can be stopped in before_invoke

[open yoke]

whats the best library to make discord bots with?

[slate swan]

user preference tbh. some allow more control. Just do your research

[open yoke]

alright, I was using discord.py for a bit but saw that it was discontinued so I was looking for another one

[slate swan]

it’s back to being maintained

[slate swan]

That is old news

[open yoke]

oh alr

[hushed galleon]

you're not the first to have mistaken dpy for having been discontinued, but i would have thought itd be pretty well known after several months

dpy v2.1 actually came out today as well

[open yoke]

oh thats cool

[mighty pilot]

it doesnt help that if you google discord.py the first result says it stopped being updated

[hushed galleon]

hm it just shows the dpy docs for me

[open yoke]

yeah almost everything does

I was searching up how to do slash commands with it

and it said it doesn't support it and never will because it got discontinued

[hushed galleon]

if you're interested in whats changed, they have a migration guide and changelog you can look through
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrating.html
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/whats_new.html

or if you still want an alternative you can look at disnake, nextcord, or hikari

[open yoke]

I was looking at interactions earlier

[mighty pilot]

i have a problem with my giveaway bot. i have it set to add the members who reacted to the giveaway to a list, and based on your roles you can have additional entries by adding your name to said list multiple times. however, when i pull random.sample() from the list of entries, it still gives duplicates even though sample isnt supposed to give duplicates

[open yoke]

How would I make slash commands with it though lol

[hushed galleon]

does the list you're sampling from have duplicates? if so, sample can pull multiple elements which are the same user

[hushed galleon]

you can see an example bot on the github
https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py

[mighty pilot]

thats the problem im having, in order to give users with specific roles more entries im adding them to the list multiple times

which results in multiple of the same winner when i want more than one winner

maybe ill have to make a new list from the first list by grabbing a random element and if it already exists in the second list, try again?

just seems like a lot of shenanigans to not get duplicates with my sample

[hushed galleon]

huh, random.sample doesnt support specifying weights for each element

[mighty pilot]

yea all it does is which list youre sampling and how many to pull afaik

[pliant gulch]

random.sample then cast to set to remove duplicates

[mighty pilot]

now full circle, is why i weighted the list with duplicates lol

[mighty pilot]

then my sample will be smaller than intended

[slate swan]

 if choice.value == 1:
    with open("users.json", "r") as f:
      users = json.load(f)
    await reset_money(users, interaction.user, member)
    with open("users.json", "w") as f:
      f.dump(users, f)
    reset = discord.Embed(title=f'Reset {member}', description=f"{member}'s Money has been set to 0!")
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=reset, ephemeral=True)

why is this resetting my json file?

[pliant gulch]

Your sample is still the same size but all the duplicates are removed, unless you mean some edge cases where the only winner is a single user?

[mighty pilot]

if i want 5 winners, pull a sample of 5, then remove the 2 duplicates im left with 3 total instead of 5

[slate swan]

async def reset_money(users, user, member):
  users[f'{member.id}']['money'] = 0

[pliant gulch]

Check length of the set after removing duplicates then push more if the size isn't right

You could call sample again with the delta size or whatever

[mighty pilot]

hmmm ill give that a try

[hushed galleon]

dump() isnt a method of f, which would have caused an error and resulted in your file being erased

many have suffered from the mistakes of one youtube guide

[mighty pilot]

LOL

[pliant gulch]

!e ```py
from random import choices

entries: dict[int, int] = {}
for i in range(10):
entries[i] = i*2 # pseudo entry

print(entries)

def select() -> list[int]:
return choices(list(entries.keys()), weights=list(entries.values()), k=5)

print(select())

@mighty pilot cc

Keep in mind you still need to filter for duplicates

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]

i didnt watch a yt vid

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

[mighty pilot]

A little bit more complicated than how I have it setup lol

[pliant gulch]

It's a lot better than what you had though

You're method was a lot more memory intensive becuse it requires duplicated entries in the list

[mighty pilot]

Well I have it working just need to filter duplicates

[pliant gulch]

whereas you can get a minimal footprint with a dictionary

[mighty pilot]

I'm not worried about memory I have a rack server in my house and this is the only bot currently running on this VM

[hushed galleon]

but there is one particular youtube video about creating an economy bot that uses json in the same way that you do, and that others have copied while they followed along

[pliant gulch]

kek ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

i use to watch those lol but since i got a level system from stack over flow ive made(and still working on heavy) my 1800 line bot for economy and moderation.

[mighty pilot]

Point being: I think I'm just gonna use what I have and filter for duplicates since it's already set to add users to the list multiple times for various roles and it already prints the users who entered without duplicates etc

[slate swan]

can you help me with my json errors?

I need help with making something global

[hushed galleon]

json errors arent really related here, id ask in a help channel

[mighty pilot]

If you want something to be global just don't specify a guild

[hushed galleon]

in general, repeatedly writing data to just a bare file has a higher risk of corruption than a database

[pliant gulch]

inb4 writing 1000 new entries to your JSON file and there is a power outage

[mighty pilot]

Good thing I remembered to use rync instead of mv in my arch install when I was moving home mounts

You need to open the file pointer with "w" to make it write-able

Also does add_word really need to be a coroutine function? Everything inside of that coroutine function is atomic

how can I get my json like this

guilds[f'{guild.id}']['words'] + word2 this line isn't doing anything

[slate swan]

its like this

[dull terrace]

why are you defining client.word when you could just pass the word to the function

[slate swan]

i have no idea

[slate swan]

.

[dull terrace]

that's a dictionary of lists

do you understand how dictionaries and lists work?

so if you use commands.Bot() it already comes with a tree, right

if so, how would I access the decorator @tree.error

help

[primal token]

change message to ctx

and no need for ctx here ctx.bot.logout you can just use client

[mighty yarrow]

cilent is not defined

[cold frigate]

how do i make my bot listen for and copy discord ids

[primal token]

Like get the id of every author of a message, and may i ask why?

its client not cilent

[mighty yarrow]

Ciline.close?

[cold frigate]

like i want to paste a id and i want my bot to just copy the id i send howvwer it cant be a command

[mighty yarrow]

oh wtf sorry

im dumb

[primal token]

nah its ok haha

[primal token]

you can use an on_message and just have a suffix if you would like

Or you can also have a suffix and a check that checks the authors id

[mighty yarrow]

you are really cool

no one ever give me short answer like this

[primal token]

:D

[cold frigate]

that wont work

[primal token]

How so?

[cold frigate]

well it will but idk how to do it

might just use wait_for

[primal token]

@bot.listen()
async def on_message(message) -> None:
    if message.author.id == 979776516357488641 and message.content.endswith("_"):
        global_var.append(message.content)

Just a simplified version

[cold frigate]

i mean like any id

[slate swan]

how to check for the member inviter ? (on_member_join)

[cold frigate]

i want to paste an id and my bot just copy what i pasted

[primal token]

Why exactly? Yes, that does what you want just with a suffix to identify the special message?

[cold frigate]

i just need it to

[mighty yarrow]

also how do i make command for add author id?

[primal token]

Add the author id to where?

!d discord.User.id

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.id

The user’s unique ID.

[mighty yarrow]

i have to rewrite this everytime

if i want to add someone id

[primal token]

Where do you want to add the id exactly? a container object?

[mighty yarrow]

so i have to add if ctx.author.id == 625899639077339140: to every command?

how can i just add it 1line

[primal token]

You can have a global check

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.check

@check```
A decorator that adds a global check to the bot.

A global check is similar to a [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is applied on a per command basis except it is run before any command checks have been verified and applies to every command the bot has.

Note

This function can either be a regular function or a coroutine.

Similar to a command [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check"), this takes 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 can only raise exceptions inherited from [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError").

Example...

[mighty pilot]

didnt know about this. thats useful

[primal token]

!d discord.ext.commands.is_owner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.is\_owner

@discord.ext.commands.is_owner()```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that checks if the person invoking this command is the owner of the bot.

This is powered by [`Bot.is_owner()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.is_owner "discord.ext.commands.Bot.is_owner").

This check raises a special exception, [`NotOwner`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NotOwner "discord.ext.commands.NotOwner") that is derived from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

[primal token]

you can also use this

Your code can be restructured better, its quite unreadable and unpythonic and in some parts incorrect

And your implementation with txt files are a bit questionable, if you're going to store a bit of data why not making it easier and use JSON?

This is the issue, for anyone who may have an answer

[slate swan]

I want to set my discord bot (made with discord.py) to restart every 10 minutes using os.execv(sys.argv[0], sys.argv) for testing purposes. I'm looking for an equivalent to Tkinter's root.after(milliseconds, command) that waits for a set amount of time before executing a command. Any ideas on how to implement this?

[sick birch]

This is probably best done using a standalone, external process manager

[mighty pilot]

does it make sense to add a global leaderboard and global rank command to a leveling bot?

[wicked atlas]

replit projects run on shared machines. this means the IP address your bot is using the discord API from is shared with other people, who are also using the discord API. Cloudflare, the service that protects discord's api from DDoS attacks, sees this large number of requests, and blocks it.

It's one of the reasons that replit isn't good for hosting

[mighty pilot]

are you hosting on a linux machine?

[wicked atlas]

One of the better options for hosting things is to use a VPS, but you will never really find a good one for free. These are some good ones:
https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/vps-services/

[wary crystal]

All if not most free VPS will be shared instances, I doubt companies really want to fork out the money needed to supply everyone with a free dedicated server

[mighty yarrow]

how do i host replit on vps

[wicked atlas]

you don't

[wary crystal]

You'll encounter that caveat in most places

[mighty yarrow]

it keep disconnecting everytime

replit is bad

[wicked atlas]

yep. Nobody's going to give you free hosting, unless there's some kind of catch

[mighty pilot]

anything free comes at the cost of userability

[mighty yarrow]

uptimerobot

[wicked atlas]

If you want to, you could probably self host it, and run a computer in the corner of your basement or something with the bot running on it

[mighty yarrow]

@wicked atlas

cmd is slow

[wicked atlas]

?

[wary crystal]

???

[mighty yarrow]

which ide is fastest?

[wary crystal]

What does IDE have anything to do with hosting?

[wicked atlas]

No idea

[wary crystal]

Repl.it seems to have given a lot of people a huge misconception with what IDEs actually do...

[mighty pilot]

hard agree lmao

[wary crystal]

IDE is just your editor so to speak, your integrated editing development

[mighty yarrow]

repl.it is faster than cmd and vscode

[wary crystal]

Not a VPS

[wicked atlas]

those are technically different things

[mighty pilot]

idk what editing speed has to do with anything lmao

[wicked atlas]

VSCode is just a text edtior, replit is a website with an editor in it, and cmd is a terminal

[wary crystal]

Basically just a hosted IDE

[dense merlin]

i found the right channel less gooo

[mighty pilot]

welcome to the channel of misconceptions lmao

[dense merlin]

ok so basically my bots only command, u!username doesnt work;https://paste.pythondiscord.com/xuxikosole.py

[dense merlin]

ok

[wicked atlas]

make sure to enable message_content intents

[mighty pilot]

does it give you any errors

[wicked atlas]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. Various features of discord.py rely on having particular intents enabled, further detailed in its documentation. Since discord.py v2.0.0, it has become mandatory for developers to explicitly define the values of these intents in their code.

There are standard and privileged intents. To use privileged intents like Presences, Server Members, and Message Content, you have to first enable them in the Discord Developer Portal. In there, go to the Bot page of your application, scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, and enable the privileged intents that you need. Standard intents can be used without any changes in the developer portal.

Afterwards in your code, 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

# Enable all standard intents and message content
# (prefix commands generally require message content)
intents = Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

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

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

[dense merlin]

ok ty

[mighty yarrow]

does uptimerobot actually work

[wicked atlas]

yeah, for what it's supposed to be used for

[dense merlin]

idk

[wary crystal]

For what it was meant to do (not hosting bots) yea

[dense merlin]

nope

[wicked atlas]

an unfortunate victim of the mob mentaility 😔

keep_alive()  # Starts a webserver to be pinged.
token = os.environ.get("token") 
bot.run(token)  # Starts the bot

if you can get that working reliably, go for it ig. never used a phone as a server :p

[wary crystal]

Make sure to monitor your phone sometimes. It can get really hot

If you have a lithium battery it might even be dangerous

[mighty pilot]

do you have your token in an .env file or is this code searching for something thats not there

[dense merlin]

I use replits env system, it actually is online

[mighty yarrow]

ur battery?

[slate swan]

How much memory should typically be allocated to hosting a Discord bot 24/7?

[mighty pilot]

how fitting, we were just discussing how unreliable replit is lol

[mighty pilot]

how many events do you plan on seeing

[wary crystal]

I'm not really talking about your charge times, more so the heat of your phone which could cause some bad side effects

As phones don't usually come with fans and what not

Which servers usually equip themselves with

[mighty yarrow]

wasting money is better than wasting ur life

[wicked atlas]

depends on what the bot is doing. If it's just call and respond stuff, usually about 1gb is enough for small bots. But if it's doing something thats memory intensive, or is in a lot of servers and needs to process a lot of things, more memory is required

[mighty yarrow]

xD

[dense merlin]

well my old desktop cant install anything :( (I use a 2011 mac that doesnt go past os 10.5)

[slate swan]

I don't see my bot finding its way into any more than a couple dozen servers.

[mighty pilot]

i have my level bot running on a VM with 2gb ram and i have 0 issues in 8 servers

[wary crystal]

2gb kind of overkill ngl

[slate swan]

What sorts of things would be considered 'memory intensive'?

[wary crystal]

Was running in 50 or so servers and my peak was around 40~ mb

[dense merlin]

i also have barely working fans

so i cant even run roblox

[mighty pilot]

the lowest it would let me choose with the slider so i sent it lol ive actually got 2 bots running on it and never peak higher than 50%

[mighty yarrow]

how do u install discord.py module on pydroid??

[wary crystal]

What about CPU usage?

[wicked atlas]

Bots that do caching, bots that do things with images, videos, or other attachments that are stored in memory, etc.

[dense merlin]

[mighty yarrow]

hosting bot on mobile

nice idea

imma try it

[slate swan]

My PC has 32GB of memory but sadly I left it at home when I moved out. If I had it with me then I could probably just self-host for the time being.

[pliant gulch]

Should be careful about code as well, imagine someone makes a command O(n^2)

[mighty pilot]

show me what you wrote

[mighty yarrow]

my vps is slow asf

[wicked atlas]

you could self host 32-64 instances of your bot 😈

[dense merlin]

import os
from keep_alive import keep_alive
from discord import client,Intents
from discord.ext import commands
from lists import name_list, title_list
from urllib.request import urlopen
from random import randint
intents = Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

bot = commands.Bot(
command_prefix="u!", # Change to desired prefix
case_insensitive=True, # Commands aren't case-sensitive
intents=intents
)

bot.author_id = 928109349140824125 # Change to your discord id!!!

[pliant gulch]

Nevermind that's time complexity not space complexity

[slate swan]

Lol

[wicked atlas]

try reinstalling discord.py. It looks like you have 1.7.3, you need to update to 2.0

[dense merlin]

k ty

[vocal snow]

it could also be space complexity

[mighty yarrow]

bruh 2.0 bot got removed

[wicked atlas]

what?

[dense merlin]

doesnt work

[mighty pilot]

just stop being a nerd then

[wicked atlas]

what did you do?

[pliant gulch]

Yea In my response I meant time complexity but yea space complexity also is like that

[mighty yarrow]

they removed bot on v.2.0

[wicked atlas]

?

[dense merlin]

pip install discord.py

[pliant gulch]

But I find it hard to actually imagine someone doing O(n^2) space complexity in a command

[wicked atlas]

do ```bash
pip install discord.py -U

[pliant gulch]

Unless.... they are doing something too omega

[slate swan]

What is O(n^2)?

[mighty yarrow]

pip install discord.py==1.7.3

[wicked atlas]

time compelxity. "in what way or how quickly will this function reach infinity"

[wicked atlas]

Why would you want that?

[mighty yarrow]

cuz im using it

[slate swan]

If you're gonna use dpy, use 2.0+.

[wicked atlas]

💀

[mighty yarrow]

no error

[slate swan]

Earlier versions will stop working next year I believe.

[mighty pilot]

passion is coding
hosts on replit

whoops wrong reply

[wicked atlas]

yep, 1.7.3 uses gateway v6, which will stop working at some point

[mighty pilot]

nah just playing because theres always someone in here with replit problems lol

[pliant gulch]

Gateway 7

[mighty yarrow]

rlly?

[wicked atlas]

thx, it was one of them and i didn't feel like looking 💀

[mighty pilot]

yooo my bad it must have scrolled when i hit the reply button

[pliant gulch]

Well you would be right anyways as Gateway 6 has long been deprecated

For some reason it's still the default version though ...

[wicked atlas]

yeah idk why that is

there must be some reason for that

[pliant gulch]

10-9 are the most current versions right now

[mighty yarrow]

but discord.py had an update 2.0 and they remove self botting u need to downgrade

[pliant gulch]

You should be using 10 if you want the bleeding edge features like some interactions stuff

[wicked atlas]

technically, it's just deprecated, not discontinued

[pliant gulch]

Are you admitting to self-botting or something

[mighty yarrow]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

What?

[wicked atlas]

they're editing nukebot.py in their vscode status 💀

[slate swan]

[pliant gulch]

inb4 run nukebot -> 4m later get's locked

I doubt with vanilla discord.py you'll be able to selfbot easily anyways

Now that discord has the intents user accounts will find it harder to get around to getting messages

[slate swan]

I think we should not be discussing self-bots or nuke-bots. Don't want the mods to get angry

[mighty yarrow]

sarcastic

[slate swan]

Anyways, which VPS services are generally recommended for bot hosting?

[mighty pilot]

i recommend oracle cloud

[wicked atlas]

here's a whole list
https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/vps-services/

[slate swan]

Wow, thank you guys.

[wicked atlas]

ehhhhhhhh, I mean you do get a free VPS in exchange for all your personal data

[mighty pilot]

eehhhhhh everything about me is already on the internet they can have it

[oblique laurel]

How the heck can one be "self hosting on Replit" lol

[wicked atlas]

I remember once I was working on a project with a partner during class and I was bored and started playing around with the shell, and I did rm -rf / --no-preserve-root just for fun to see if it would work. It didn't, but it did delete all of our project.

[slate swan]

how can I mention slash commands

[mighty pilot]

</command name : command ID>

[wicked atlas]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting

[mighty yarrow]

[wicked atlas]

no, because it deleted all the files

!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.

[wicked atlas]

this one?

[mighty pilot]

anybody got a cooldown thats specified per user that would work in an on_message?

[pliant gulch]

!custom-cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

Cooldowns in discord.py

Cooldowns can be used in discord.py to rate-limit. In this example, we're using it in an on_message.

from discord.ext import commands

message_cooldown = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(1.0, 60.0, commands.BucketType.user)

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    bucket = message_cooldown.get_bucket(message)
    retry_after = bucket.update_rate_limit()
    if retry_after:
        await message.channel.send(f"Slow down! Try again in {retry_after} seconds.")
    else:
        await message.channel.send("Not ratelimited!")

from_cooldown takes the amount of update_rate_limit()s needed to trigger the cooldown, the time in which the cooldown is triggered, and a BucketType.

[mighty pilot]

thanks

well thats a global cooldown isnt it? im trying to make one for a level system where if that specific user sends a message within 5 seconds of another message it wont register, but other users can still send a message that gets registered

[pliant gulch]

Look at the bucket type

[mighty pilot]

or is that what the bit at the top is for bucket

ah yea ok

thanks

[wicked atlas]

it's not documented, but you could create your own CooldownMapping

[mighty pilot]

im not trying to dive into undocumented territory lol

[wicked atlas]

then you've probably hit a wall

[wicked atlas]

looks like this does just that actually

[mighty pilot]

yea im gonna put that in and see how she goes

why this is not working anyone

[wicked atlas]

Does it give any errors?

[azure granite]

nope

it just oesnt work

[mighty pilot]

so in this, the from_cooldown(1.0, 60.0 is that saying one update in 60 seconds?

this part wworks

yea im running it on replit

[mighty pilot]

this is your problem

doesnt solve problems inside the code though lol

[wicked atlas]

read the link I sent you

not for this case

kk

[azure granite]

what is this ??

okay bro

how should i change my server

[bright wedge]

  if message.author == client.user:
    return # no parentheses

[azure granite]

okay

[fading marlin]

jeez what? the kill is used to force stop a process with its ID

[azure granite]

btw i like ur pfp

keep ddestroying bro

[fading marlin]

don't use replit cause it uses shared IP

that's not how it works

[azure granite]

i get that 😂

[bright wedge]

💣

[azure granite]

where to place this peice of code

[bright wedge]

osama coding timer

[abstract kindle]

heyo how do I get bot in my cog for this decorator?
@bot.tree.error

[bright wedge]

add the bomb too \💣

[fading marlin]

you have to set bot.tree.on_error to a coroutine (your callback) in your init

[abstract kindle]

on my init where

[fading marlin]

your cog's init

[abstract kindle]

i see

what do you mean by setting it to a coroutine

[unkempt canyon]

All inventories (`44` total)

• networkx
• nextcord
• numba
• numpy
• pandas
• pillow

Page 4/7

[fading marlin]

a coroutine is a function that's async

[abstract kindle]

 async def on_app_command_error(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, error: app_commands.AppCommandError):
        if isinstance(error, app_commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            error_embed = discord.Embed(
                title=error,
                color=discord.Color.red())
            await interaction.response.send_message(embed=error_embed)

This is the function I am trying to put the decorator on

[fading marlin]

in your init, you gotta set tree.on_error to that coroutine then

don't call it though

[fading marlin]

you're not calling the decorator

@client.command**()**

[azure granite]

now what is that 😭

[mighty pilot]

is there a more proper way to exit a chunk of code than doing this: if undesirable: return

[azure granite]

bro how to solve that issue

[fading marlin]

you literally have to type 2 characters ._.

[azure granite]

ohh srry

i get it

[fading marlin]

I don't think so. Is there something specific you were expecting?

could you elaborate a bit? Errors are raised, they're not typed btw

[mighty pilot]

no i just wanted to make sure since you can return specific values with stuff. wasnt sure if just a blank return is the way i should be doing it or if theres something else specifically for that

[fading marlin]

You can listen to the on_command_error event

[pearl inlet]

@bot.slash_command(description="Buy things!")
async def buy(interaction: nextcord.Interaction, option: str = nextcord.SlashOption(description="Item Name", required=True)):
    p2 = interaction.user.id
    
    with open('Data.json') as json_file:
        json_decoded = json.load(json_file)
    p7 = json_decoded["Data"][str(p2)]["Coins"]
    if option.lower() == "watermelon":
        if (json_decoded["Data"][str(p2)]["Coins"] >= 50):
            json_decoded["Data"][str(p2)]["Potato"] += 1
            msg = await interaction.send(f"Successfully bought watermelon, your balance is now **{p7}** (![rotating_coin](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1041139664054128780.webp?size=128 "rotating_coin"))!")
    elif option.lower() == "potato":
        if (json_decoded["Data"][str(p2)]["Coins"] >= 100):
            json_decoded["Data"][str(p2)]["Potato"] += 1
            msg = await interaction.send(f"Successfully bought potato, your balance is now **{p7}** (![rotating_coin](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1041139664054128780.webp?size=128 "rotating_coin"))!")
    else:
        await interaction.send("⚠ Error: Invalid Syntax (Please use /shop for reference!)")

I'm trying to make it so when you put "watermelon" or "potato" into the option it adds one potato or watermleon to the json if they have enough coins
it doesn't send an error but it says the application doesn't respond
no idea what to do next

[fading marlin]

You can raise an error if you want to too. It really just depends on why you're exiting the function

As in the traceback?

[mighty pilot]

just exiting because of the custom rate limit is all. i just wanted it to exit the function and do nothing else

[fading marlin]

print or ctx.send()?

[mighty pilot]

im not sure about nextcord but with discord.py itll send that when you dont send a response to the slash command with interaction.response.send_message

[azure granite]

im losing my temper

[fading marlin]

consider using literal/choice arguments instead of a plain string argument. Any tracebacks?

[azure granite]

ohh i seee why

[fading marlin]

a command is not an event

[azure granite]

dayum using api is hard man

[pearl inlet]

Nope no errors

[fading marlin]

no, that'll just return the raw string with no additional arguments

[mighty pilot]

does it respond with the messages you intend on sending

[pearl inlet]

Could you give me an example of literal/choise arguments please?

[pearl inlet]

nope just application is not responding

[azure granite]

it isnt responing to msg

[fading marlin]

I'm not too sure if nextcord also has this, probably does

I'm asking like how would you do if choice == 'argument 1':

[slate swan]

thanks

[fading marlin]

use interaction.response.send_message, you gotta respond to interactions and that's how

[fading marlin]

just like that, be careful with case sensitivity though

[pearl inlet]

so replace choice with option, using your example?

[azure granite]

can i have a lil example bro

[fading marlin]

you can still have the argument named choice, just take a look at the type hint

[fading marlin]

!d nextcord.InteractionResponse.send_message you can have docs :)

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[fading marlin]

that took long enough

use a command error handler

[slate swan]

class Dropdown(discord.ui.Select):
    def __init__(self):

        # Set the options that will be presented inside the dropdown
        options = [
            discord.SelectOption(label='Red', description='Your favourite colour is red', emoji='🟥'),
            discord.SelectOption(label='Green', description='Your favourite colour is green', emoji='🟩'),
            discord.SelectOption(label='Blue', description='Your favourite colour is blue', emoji='🟦'),
        ]

        # The placeholder is what will be shown when no option is chosen
        # The min and max values indicate we can only pick one of the three options
        # The options parameter defines the dropdown options. We defined this above
        super().__init__(placeholder='Choose your favourite colour...', min_values=1, max_values=1, options=options)

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        # Use the interaction object to send a response message containing
        # the user's favourite colour or choice. The self object refers to the
        # Select object, and the values attribute gets a list of the user's
        # selected options. We only want the first one.
        if self.name == 'Red':
          await interaction.response.send_message("red", ephemeral=True)

[mighty pilot]

what are you trying to check the name of

[sick birch]

i wrote this one so let me see if i can help :p

[slate swan]

lets go!!

[slate swan]

the first one

[mighty pilot]

should either set self.name in the interaction or check for the interaction picked

[slate swan]

i tried
self.value[0]

[sick birch]

Your callback should take select as the 3rd argument:

async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, select: discord.ui.Select) -> None:
  if select.values[0].name == "Red":
    ...

[slate swan]

oh yea lol

another thing...

how do i align emojis in an embed

[mighty pilot]

wym

[slate swan]

like
shorter 🔒
short 🔒

make them in one line

[mighty pilot]

aside from just adding more spaces? lol

[slate swan]

they dont work in embeds

[slate swan]

doesnt work

oh wait I didnt do send_message right

@sick birch

        async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, select: discord.ui.Select) -> None:
          if select.values[0].name == "Red":
            await interaction.response.send_message("Red", ephemeral=True)

this doesnt send the message

[sick birch]

Try print(select.values) to see what it prints

[slate swan]

nothing just says it failed

[mighty pilot]

send_message(content='red', ephemeral=True)

[fading marlin]

if you want to do it dynamically, you can do something like

f"{'Shovel':8} :lock:"

where you can change 'Shovel' for a string variable. Else, just use spaces

[slate swan]

whats this do

[slate swan]

nope

[fading marlin]

I've got no clue how to explain it if I'm being honest. I'm quite newbie to it. F-strings are quite the marble :o

[mighty pilot]

then do this and see what it prints

[slate swan]

i did

nothing happens

[mighty pilot]

where did you put it

[slate swan]

replaced the interaction.response.send_message

[mighty pilot]

youre not making it to the send message part

thats the point of the print

put it before if select.values

the line above it

below the callback line

inline with if

[slate swan]

ok

testing

nothing

[mighty pilot]

not self.values

[slate swan]

what

[mighty pilot]

select.values

[slate swan]

o

[mighty pilot]

print(select.values)

then run it and make a selection

[slate swan]

nothing

[mighty pilot]

did you run the bot and select something from the menu

[slate swan]

yea all 3

[sick birch]

Are you re-running the command and using the new select menu or are you using an older select menu from before?

[sick birch]

I mean, on discord

[slate swan]

no

im rerunning the command

[sick birch]

and this is inside the DropdownView class?

[mighty pilot]

this says class dropdown not dropdownview

[sick birch]

Try printing self.values

[slate swan]

i alr did

[mighty pilot]

he does on line 318

[sick birch]

That's select.values

[slate swan]

i also did self.values

[sick birch]

Since this is inside a ui.Select subclass

[slate swan]

nothing

AppCommands don't have a hidden attribute?

[slate swan]

In discord.py, does a view's timeout countdown get reset whenever a user clicks a button in that view, or is it just a single countdown?

random_activity = ['Zio Miner', '/help', f'in {len(mt.guilds)} guilds!']

why is it saying 0 guilds?

[naive briar]

Anyone can just tell why with just that amount of info, huh

Pycord has automatic tree sync doesn't it

for command in s: a += 1 what, why not use len(s) lol

In pycord the sync is done automatically

It's not dpy where you gotta do it manually

[vale wing]

app_commands.AppCommand is not a decorator

!d discord.app_commands.command is

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.command

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

[vale wing]

So what? It describes what's wrong with your code and higher in traceback there's a concrete line where it occurs

[vale wing]

In dpy the syncing should be done in a separate command, but before do the sync in setup_hook method of your bot subclass (just to register the sync command)

You do setup_hook wrong btw

[mighty yarrow]

@vale wing how to ignore this also

[vale wing]

Should be like this

class MyBot(commands.Bot):

        ...

bot = MyBot(...)

Add elif isinstance(error, commands.BadArgument), analogically for every exception you need to handle

still cant

What you did

[mighty yarrow]

2 client event at near line wont be worked

[vale wing]

Man

[mighty yarrow]

huh

You don't need to create a separate listener for every damn exception

Just extend if-elif-else block

where do i add this elif

• The message was sent in direct messages

• The message mentions the client

[naive briar]

And you have to enable the intents in the Dev portal also

[slate swan]

do you mean this?

[naive briar]

Yes

[slate swan]

finally

it works

thanks, I love you

[main moth]

Can I dm a person where i have Discord Tag only as input?

For example a String with Flouu#8782

[glad cradle]

no

[main moth]

F

Is there any other way to DM a Person?

[naive briar]

IDs

[main moth]

and the bot cant extract ID from Name+Tagg?

Is there no way?

[mighty yarrow]

!d emoji

[slate swan]

ofcourse they can

[slate swan]

is it a command?

!f discord.ext.commands.UserConverter.convert

[unkempt canyon]

You are not allowed to use that command here. Please use the #bot-commands channel instead.

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.UserConverter.convert

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.UserConverter.convert

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

The method to override to do conversion logic.

If an error is found while converting, it is recommended to raise a [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError") derived exception as it will properly propagate to the error handlers.

[slate swan]

Any idea on how to make bot use commands of another bot?

Wdym

when I write /bump it triggers DISBOARD command but when bot writes it, nothing happens

    if message.content.startswith("!bump"):
        await message.channel.send("/bump")    

This is what I use

[naive briar]

Bots can't use slash commands

[slate swan]

oh

:(

[mighty yarrow]

whats the code for upload emoji

[main moth]

No i will get it from the DB

[naive briar]

!d discord.Guild.create_custom_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_custom\_emoji

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

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

There is currently a limit of 50 static and animated emojis respectively per guild, unless the guild has the `MORE_EMOJI` feature which extends the limit to 200.

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

[main moth]

Other question: How to handle a missing argument. If arg == None: Does not work....

[naive briar]

Set default argument

[main moth]

Should i do it with try except?

[main moth]

mhhh

[naive briar]

Or error handler

[main moth]

Could you send me an example

[naive briar]

About default arguments or error handler

[main moth]

Default is working fine for me, but if you think error handler is the better choice, pls send me example :=

🙂

[naive briar]

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/default-arguments-in-python/

[main moth]

Default arguments working fine for me

Just thought to have a look at error handler

[slate swan]

why can't you save the ID in the db?

what if someone changes their username?

[main moth]

Hmmm thought it would be easier for the Users. Dont know if everyone knows their ID or how to get

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.get_user

[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]

Make a request to the image link, then get the image data and put them in io.BytesIO, then use PIL.Image.open to open it

[loud junco]

huh

what is io

[naive briar]

!d io.BytesIO

[unkempt canyon]

io.BytesIO

class io.BytesIO(initial_bytes=b'')```
A binary stream using an in-memory bytes buffer. It inherits [`BufferedIOBase`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.BufferedIOBase "io.BufferedIOBase"). The buffer is discarded when the [`close()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.IOBase.close "io.IOBase.close") method is called.

The optional argument *initial\_bytes* is a [bytes-like object](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-bytes-like-object) that contains initial data.

[`BytesIO`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.BytesIO "io.BytesIO") provides or overrides these methods in addition to those from [`BufferedIOBase`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.BufferedIOBase "io.BufferedIOBase") and [`IOBase`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.IOBase "io.IOBase"):

how to dm anyone without mutual server in discord.py?

is it possible

[slate swan]

no

[cold frigate]

does anyone know i can make my bot only copy the ids i send to it, but i only want it to do ids. this is how far ive come

[slate swan]

Wdym "copy"

[cold frigate]

i want to send a id in chat and for my bot to literally just copy it and send the id i sent into chat

[slate swan]

Change message variable to msg so it doesn't mess with function args, and then do message.channel.send(msg)

[honest shoal]

Since you didn't mention what kind of IDs; you can make the bot check your messages for specific strings (the length, and its specific characters) and then send it again

[slate swan]

You can use len function and regex ^ for this

[cold frigate]

yes how do u do this

[honest shoal]

↑

[naive briar]

Waht

[slate swan]

how do i connect them

[slate swan]

Connect them?

Connect what

so the colour would be the color they provide

and the staffrole either

In what format are they giving the color

hex code

but either the staff role

@torn sail

[mighty pilot]

Why add the select menu to another view

Nvm I'm dumb. Haven't worked with select menus enough

[cold frigate]

same super new to it first time trying them out

[mighty pilot]

You want self.add_item(StartOfTicket())

[cold frigate]

have no idea what im doing but happy to learn

[mighty pilot]

Do this instead of self.add_view

[cold frigate]

@mighty pilot

[mighty pilot]

At the very bottom where the light bulb is

You want self.add_item(StartOfTicket())

Instead of add_view

[cold frigate]

thanks it works now

[mighty pilot]

I think for this you may have to do something like
if colour == 'red': clr = '0xe74c3c'
Then in your embed, color = clr

someone please tell me why its saying this

[naive briar]

If this if statement isn't true

The variable won't exist

[mighty pilot]

Try moving the rubyrndm = rubyrndm * rubymulti in line with your rubymulti == 1

Or add in an else: statement to match your if

To give it different values if they don't qualify for your if

[cold frigate]

why wont my dropdown send a embed when i click it

[faint mural]

You should be using interaction for example you can edit the original message with another view

[cold frigate]

wym

[mighty pilot]

I think they're referring to the callback near the top

[faint mural]

Oh this is not an Select subclass?

[mighty pilot]

The top is a select class then the view that adds it below

[faint mural]

If it was then you can just use self.values and not pass it to callback (unsure if that even works)

[cold sonnet]

sometimes I still look into this channel and see

[cold sonnet]

get the callback outside of your __init__

[slate swan]

and then i wanna unsee everything

[cold sonnet]

same

[cold frigate]

this is my dropdown

[cold sonnet]

yeah get the callback out there

in the class but not in the __init__

it's also self.values

not select

!d discord.ui.Select.callback idk anymore what this is passed

!d discord.ui.Select.callback

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Select.callback

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

The callback associated with this UI item.

This can be overridden by subclasses.

[cold sonnet]

remove select from the args completely

[faint mural]

stated here

[cold sonnet]

nice

[cold frigate]

uh okay ill try ig

[cold sonnet]

this is the main reason I don't check in here anymore

[naive briar]

Also you shouldn't use time.sleep, it's blocking

[mighty pilot]

Hey while there's people here that know more than me, I'm having a problem editing a message my bot sends. It's a level bot so a user sends a message in a channel, then in the bot spam channel it sends a message with a button view. I'm trying to disable the buttons after the view times out and can't figure out how to do that from inside the view since the event isn't an interaction it's just a message that the bot sends in a channel

One sec I'll send what I have

I have the on_timeout made I just don't know how to grab the message object that's sent inside the on_message

[cold sonnet]

oh okay, well send code

[mighty pilot]

Pc updating and turning on

heres the timeout that doesnt currently work

[slate swan]

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord'
How do i fix this error?

[mighty pilot]

heres where the message is sent from inside the on_message

[mighty pilot]

pip install discord.py in your terminal
