voice = ctx.author.voice

code:

    vc = discord.VoiceClient(bot, channel_id)
    vc.connect()
    vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("./sounds/onegai.mp3"))

error:

xd

or actually use a discord.VoiceaChannel typehint

[slate swan]

ffound this from pycord docs

alternatively you can do

channel_id = int(chanel_id)

[slate swan]

he said not working with int too 🤷

[slate swan]

yes but it will make the bot join in the vc in which the author is

skill issue

[slate swan]

hm

hm cool

kind of knew that 💀

[slate swan]

did but stil gave the error "int doesnt have connect"

vc = await voice.channel.connect()

vc.channel.connect according to pycord docs

its coro btw

[slate swan]

voice_channel.connect, not chanel_id connect

from here ^

[slate swan]

after replacing this

[slate swan]

my guy using big brain w

new code:

@bot.slash_command(description='Joins Voice Channel And Play Onegai Sound Effect')
async def onegai(ctx: commands.Context, channel_id):
    channel_id = int(channel_id)
    voice_channel = bot.get_channel(channel_id)
    vc = voice_channel.connect()
    vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("./sounds/onegai.mp3"))
    while vc.is_playing():
        await asyncio.sleep(.1)
    await vc.disconnect()
    await ctx.respond("Please pound me more with you ")```
new error:
    vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("./sounds/onegai.mp3"))
AttributeError: 'coroutine' object has no attribute 'play'
  self._context.run(self._callback, *self._args)
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

it's coro 🤷

altho

[slate swan]

whos coro?

you didn't await the connect thing

ohh

it's maybe voice_channel.play

i think xd

[slate swan]

after connecting

[slate swan]

im my Library would be as easy as ```py
await bot.gateway.update_voice_state(serverid, channel id)

[slate swan]

w

me nub dev

[slate swan]

hmmmmm I dont think so since we already defined vc as voice channel

imagine creating own wrapper and customize it as u wish looks cool

[slate swan]

maybe lol idk anything about connecting to a voice channel

[slate swan]

😏 you can help by contributing tho

[slate swan]

i am noob dev

[slate swan]

business

there's a todo for things easier than you can imagine

and im too lazy for them

IS THERE 2 + 2?

as easy yeah

;-;

cul

but 2+2 = 5 so hard ;-;

what, its 22

altho in my higher math exam i kinda fked up in the calculation
9+3-2=10 right but i was kept thinking 11 kinda bruh

then after a lot of big brain using real cal culator i realized it's 10 💀

ike wtf

[slate swan]

nah dawg its 11*2

carry a python with you at exams so you can do basic maths calc using it

[slate swan]

11*2 is 1111

maybe i should

[slate swan]

oh nvm

can someone tell me who is coro?

now tell me how to contribute

[slate swan]

coroutine

[slate swan]

a coro is a coroutine, basically an async function

[slate swan]

you know any git basics?

async =await

[slate swan]

git needs basics? sheesh

[slate swan]

soo my code is giving error because the vc didnt get awaited

i only know how to serch stuff and how to steal imean learn

[slate swan]

just cloning, commit and push is enough

search*

i can teach you if you wanna learn

[slate swan]

await vc.play

or vscode makes it easier

[slate swan]

i can use

[slate swan]

you didn't await .connect

but win 7 doesnt support py ;[

await voice_channel.connect()

[slate swan]

yeah great I'll dm you some easy tasks that you can work on

[slate swan]

I did

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

[slate swan]

this ^

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[slate swan]

now it joins vc which is nice but no sound and giving error of this
await vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("./sounds/onegai.mp3"))
AttributeError: 'VoiceChannel' object has no attribute 'play'

[slate swan]

ctx.voice_client.play

[slate swan]

+rep thank you

@slate swan

[slate swan]

can you come in #web-development please?

I need help in css

How to make different time for cooldown for each person using database, for example one user has 20 minutes, another 25?

[slate swan]

!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.

[regal cove]

what do you use instead of "ctx" when using slash commands?

[brazen raft]

interaction

[regal cove]

interaction.author.id doesnt work. how would i do that?

[rare echo]

interaction.user

[brazen raft]

They don't have the exact same attributes and methods

[timid spade]

where can i make the list of options?

[slate swan]

guys I need help asap

[stone quest]

what

[slate swan]

bot = commands.Bot(help_command=None, command_prefix="2?", intents=discord.Intents.all())

I did this but it still doesn't remove the help cmd and I keep getting error

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandRegistrationError: The alias help is already an existing command or alias.

[stone quest]

you have two help command ssomewhere

or two help functions

[slate swan]

its defult help cmd from discord commands

how do I disable that?

[stone quest]

youve done it right, with help_command=None

[slate swan]

so why doesnt it work?

[stone quest]

show full code?

[slate swan]

async def help(ctx):
  HelpEmbed = discord.Embed(title="Here are all the commands", color=0x2ecc71)
  HelpEmbed.add_field(name="Basic Predictor Commands", value="2?towers, 2?crash, 2?casemode (casemode is just for fun")
  HelpEmbed.add_field(name="Premium Predictor", value="everything from basic predicator and 2?mines + 2?bloxflip.")```

[stone quest]

remove the aliases=[]

[slate swan]

OH THAT

[stone quest]

function name defined the command as help

[slate swan]

IM SO DUMB

ok I changed it to a capital letter, now it works. thanks

[stone quest]

you dont need to do that

bot = commands.Bot(help_command=None, command_prefix="2?", intents=discord.Intents.all(), case_insensitive=True)

you can use that instead

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, *, help_command=<default-help-command>, tree_cls=<class 'discord.app_commands.tree.CommandTree'>, description=None, intents, **options)```
Represents a Discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin") to provide the functionality to manage commands.

Unlike [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client"), this class does not require manually setting a [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree "discord.app_commands.CommandTree") and is automatically set upon instantiating the class.

async with x Asynchronously initialises the bot and automatically cleans up.

[vale wing]

What's type of user_id col in db and what it is in USER_ID?

[regal cove]

USER_ID is the sql variable and the user_id is the actual id i get from the author of the command

[vale wing]

I asked about their types

[regal cove]

int

[cloud dawn]

Why would you save a username in a database?

[vale wing]

@regal cove send me CREATE TABLE instruction for that table and print(type(USER_ID))

[regal cove]

idk i decided to do that and i guess it doesnt really matter

[cloud dawn]

I mean it adds a lot of variables, for instance, what if I change my username?

If he/she is in 2 servers with a custom username, what will it use?

[regal cove]

  await cursor.execute("""CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS claim_data1(
                       num INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, user_name TEXT,
date INTEGER,                     
streak INTEGER,
user_id INTEGER NOT NULL
)""")

[cloud dawn]

num? is the pk 👀 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[regal cove]

i understand that it would be a problem if they change their name. but i believe you can only change your nickname on different servers

[cloud dawn]

True, but still you can change the username.

[regal cove]

you're right i should probably remove the user_name thing

i will do that but i just wanna solve the error first

[cloud dawn]

Also consider using user_id as pk since that is unique.

[vale wing]

I need the signature

K nvm

It probably doesn't support aiosqlite docs

[cloud dawn]

Lol

[regal cove]

alright

[vale wing]

@regal cove and what about USER_ID type

[regal cove]

i believe that should be int aswell

i will double check that hold on

[vale wing]

Print it anyway

[slate swan]

BIGINT 🗿

[cloud dawn]

Nah it fits.

[slate swan]

hm lemme check

[cloud dawn]

263 - 1

[vale wing]

In sqlite there's no such thing as explicit BIGINT, it automatically expands the INTEGER field size if needed iirc

[cloud dawn]

2 to the power of 63

[regal cove]

i believe i forgot to convert USER_ID to int

[cloud dawn]

9223372036854775807

[vale wing]

Why some weird const when you can ctx.author.id

[cloud dawn]

Well in a db it's a good way to save extra user data.

[vale wing]

Where does USER_ID even come from

[cloud dawn]

Placing the user.id as pk is always unique

[regal cove]

i use slash commands

so i cant use ctx

[vale wing]

So what

[cloud dawn]

interaction.user.id

[regal cove]

i use this

ctx just doesnt work with slash commands

[cloud dawn]

Same stuff.

[cloud dawn]

And let's pray it stays that way.

[vale wing]

Name of the parameter doesn't affect anything

As long as it's instance of Interaction everything will be working

[regal cove]

oh i understand

bruh i could probably have done what you said but now i've edited so much of my code its easier to just let it stay that way

[vale wing]

Nah better to name it inter/interaction cause good practice

[upbeat otter]

py-cord 😳

[cloud dawn]

I guess you could use discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context and make a custom context to add database support and have really clean commands but eh, clean AND useful, let's not...

[cloud dawn]

Stawph

[upbeat otter]

I mean

[cloud dawn]

no

[upbeat otter]

💀

[regal cove]

thank you guys

[upbeat otter]

frustration or wot 💀

[regal cove]

i now know what mistake i made. the problem was that i did interaction.user instead of interaction.user.id

[vale wing]

😱

[cloud dawn]

repr be like hm yes

I guess you could make it cursed like that.

[meager chasm]

do you know what IndexError is

[timid spade]

can someone help me with making persistent views for select menues

can you tell me if i did something wrong by looking at my code? i will send you my code in dm

[regal cove]

how do you delete a message when using slash commands

[timid spade]

i dmed you
check your messages requests maybe

for the decorator's option argument
i am using a for loop to append select options in the list
but i cant figure out where to run the loop

like in discord.ui.Select class i ran the loop after super() to append options

[cloud dawn]

You got custom id's so the view can never be persistent.

[vale wing]

What? Don't persistent views have to have custom id?

[cloud dawn]

No the opposite.

I mean you can if you use raw requests but it's meant so that you can't have conflicting stuff happening.

[ancient glen]

Hi, any of you guys good with discord bot developing? Like actually good

[cloud dawn]

Best to just ask the question rather than asking if there is someone that could solve it.

[ancient glen]

the question is long

i just wanna say im an amateur that is looking to get something done with the help of someone

the plan is big

[cloud dawn]

Okay, people are here to help with problems etc. but we aren't providing any kind of "assistance", you do still need to code it yourself. Sometimes we do provide small examples.

[ancient glen]

Any of you guys good with discord bot developing?

[cloud dawn]

Like I said above, you will most likely not get a different answer. Just ask the question.

[ancient glen]

Okay then and I'm gonna specify the question.

I need a python bot that runs on discord and has different commands users can use. That bot needs to log in a users instagram's account feed, give the user an option to fill the password area, username 2-fa etc. and when it logs into the instagram, user can choose a refresh second interval from 1-10seconds. The bot then needs to refresh the instagram feed based on the interval the user chooses and everytime there is a less than 60 seconds old post it needs to comment one of the comments we set on the comment list and many other features.

A friend of mine send me a 'skeleton' or like asample of that code but I need to work on it with someone. This plan

is really big trust me

[fading marlin]

Instagram userbots are surely against TOS

[ancient glen]

But it is not an instagram userbot

[fading marlin]

log in a users instagram's account feed, give the user an option to fill the password area, username 2-fa etc. and when it logs into the instagram
is it not? 🤔

[timid spade]

huh
i thought view mush have custom id to be persistent

[ancient glen]

no what it does is that it self promotes

on new posts

Like there is no botted comment likes, no botted coments it's just self promoting the account

You've seen many memepages do it on comment sections

[fading marlin]

via userbotting...

[cloud dawn]

Indeed they are.

[fading marlin]

yeah no, you're not gonna get any help on that here

[cloud dawn]

Depends if you are going to utilize the API. Not too sure what exactly you want but if it falls under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-basic-display-api/ then it's fine.

[timid spade]

@cloud dawn

i am confused

[cloud dawn]

Well they aren't set, purely to avoid getting issues down the line.

[timid spade]

so i shouldnt set them for persistent views?

[cloud dawn]

yep

[timid spade]

can someone tell why its still not persistent

[fading marlin]

you don't seem to be adding any custom IDs. Your Options list should be inside the class (as a class variable)

[timid spade]

pandabweer said persistent wont work if you add custom ids

[timid spade]

should i use global here?

[fading marlin]

I'd differ

[fading marlin]

No, inside your constructor, you access Options with self.Options

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.ui.View.is_persistent Then the docs or wrong

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.is\_persistent

is_persistent()```
[`bool`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.11)"): Whether the view is set up as persistent.

A persistent view has all their components with a set `custom_id` and a [`timeout`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View.timeout "discord.ui.View.timeout") set to `None`.

[cloud dawn]

set custom_id ahh, who wrote this anyways?

👀

[fading marlin]

🤷

[fading marlin]

Send your whole code please

[timid spade]

so i should set custom id or not?

[fading marlin]

You should set them, yes

[timid spade]

class DropdownSelectView(discord.ui.View):
    
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout= None)
        self.add_item(Role_Select(ctx, roles_list))
           
        
    @discord.ui.select(max_values= max_val,min_values=min_val, options= Options)
    
    Options = []
    for item in roles_list:
            if isinstance(item, int):
                role = get(ctx.guild.roles, id=item)
                Options.append(discord.SelectOption(label=role.name))

[timid spade]

ok cool

[fading marlin]

You'd typically set class variables after you define the class' name

So, above __init__

[timid spade]

and loop too
above init?

[fading marlin]

No, your loop should stay where it previously was (inside the constructor), the select decorator should be above the select's callback, and Options should be in between the class definition and __init__. You can also set the options before you instantiate the super class

[timid spade]

Well, roles_list isn't defined anywhere but sure

[timid spade]

yeah its not here
but it exists 🗿

[fading marlin]

Anyway, tias ig

[timid spade]

i am getting 2 drop down menus

[fading marlin]

Yup
self.add_item(...) -> Adds a new component to the view
@discord.ui.select(...) -> Also adds a new component to the view

[timid spade]

imma remove self.add_item
will it fix?

[fading marlin]

sure

[timid spade]

well
working fine but not after restart
means still not persistent

[fading marlin]

Maybe see this example of a persistent view: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/persistent.py

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/hanifadito what does this code do? its from a tutorial and im new to coding#

[naive briar]

Where specifically

[slate swan]

when i run it

[naive briar]

The way they generate a random string is funny

[fading marlin]

ew

[slate swan]

so it does nothing?

[fading marlin]

it's a sync API wrapper of some sorts?

is this for selfbotting?

[slate swan]

idk i got it from google but cant remember where

[naive briar]

Probably for spamming message to a channel

[naive briar]

Possibly

[slate swan]

whats that?

[fading marlin]

Discord account automation

[slate swan]

it steals? like a tokenlogger?

[fading marlin]

no, it automates stuff on your Discord account, it's also against TOS

[slate swan]

ok thanks

but is it alright for bots?

[fading marlin]

sure, but use a good API wrapper like discord.py if you want to code Discord bots

[slate swan]

ok thank you

[regal cove]

why does this only dump one person in the json file?

@tree.command(name = 'initiate_bans', description='This will activate the economic ban system') 
async def ban_all_members(interaction: discord.Interaction):
  if interaction.user.id == (767636284083666971):
    await interaction.response.send_message("Bans have been initiated", ephemeral = True)
    ban_list = {}
    
    for guild in client.guilds:
        for member in guild.members:
            ban_list[member.id] = ban_balance
    print(ban_list)
    print(interaction.user.id)
    with open("ban_data.json", "w") as outfile:
        json.dump(ban_list, outfile)
  else: interaction.response.send_message("Sorry but you dont have permission to perform this command.")

[fading marlin]

what does ban_list print out as?

consider using an actual db instead of a json file too

[regal cove]

yeah i know that but the ban feature wont be used much so i cant be bothered to migrate such a small thing. the rest of my bot uses sqlite

[winged coral]

Because you're not reading the current ban list before you dump the new one

"w" mode puts the cursor at the start of the file

When you write to it it's gonna overwrite whatever is already in there

You should be

1. read json file into dictionary
2. update dictionary
3. dump dictionary into json file

Oh nvm you mean you want that to happen but only 1 guild member is dumped?

[cloud dawn]

else send message isn't awaited

[eager hill]

@bot.tree.context_menu("whothis")
async def whothis(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member):
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{member.name}#{member.discriminator}", description=f"ID: {member.id}")

    embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, ephemeral=True)

I get the error ```py
CommandTree.context_menu() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

why

[fading marlin]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.context_menu

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.context\_menu

@context_menu(*, name=..., nsfw=False, guild=..., guilds=..., auto_locale_strings=True, extras=...)```
A decorator that creates an application command context menu from a regular function directly under this tree.

This function must have a signature of [`Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction") as its first parameter and taking either a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member"), [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User"), or [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message"), or a [`typing.Union`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Union "(in Python v3.11)") of `Member` and `User` as its second parameter.

Examples...

[fading marlin]

All arguments are keyword only

[eager hill]

?

oh

[fading marlin]

You don't have to add a name if it's gonna be the same as the function's name either

[eager hill]

thanks man

[cloud dawn]

Does look better with it tough.

[regal cove]

i want everyone on the server to be dumped on the json file but only one is being dumped

[cloud dawn]

But why is the function called ban_all_members?? @regal cove

[regal cove]

because this is a ban feature

its a feature that will allow the user to ban people from my economy system

[cloud dawn]

Where is ban_balance even comming from?

[regal cove]

ban balance is outside the function and that does work. ban_balance is just = 0

[eager hill]

now im getting an error with the embed avatar stuff

[regal cove]

and then if ban_balance is == 1 the bot wont allow you to use its economy commands

[cloud dawn]

Replace _ with .

[cloud dawn]

Why not add them to the list if they are banned or not rather than adding all members.

[eager hill]

thanks

[regal cove]

because i didnt think of that lol

but does that actually change anything? the ban command used to work but when i migrated it to using slash commands it stopped working

[cloud dawn]

Then you could have a structure like json { "267624335836053506": [767636284083666971, 169790484594556928], "336642139381301249": [427969521152950284] } string being the guild id and the ones in the list being banned users.

[slate swan]

hello, could someone help me figure this out, im trying to display a users banner

@bot.command(aliases=['bann', 'bn'])
async def banner(ctx, *, member: discord.Member = None):
    user = discord.Member
    member = await bot.fetch_user(user.id)
    if not member:
        member = ctx.message.author
    banner_url = member.banner.url
    em = discord.Embed(color = discord.Color.from_rgb(0, 0, 0), title = "avatar link", url=banner_url)
    em.set_image(url=f"{banner_url}")
    em.set_author(name=f"{member}", icon_url=f"{banner_url}")
    em.set_footer(text=f'Requested by {ctx.message.author}', icon_url=f"{ctx.author.banner_url}")
    await ctx.reply(embed=em)

i dont think i can do it as easily as with an avatar

@bot.command(aliases=['av', 'pfp'])
async def avatar(ctx, *, member: discord.Member = None):
    if not member:
        member = ctx.message.author
    userAvatar = member.display_avatar.url
    em = discord.Embed(color = discord.Color.from_rgb(0, 0, 0), title = "avatar link", url=userAvatar)
    em.set_image(url=f"{userAvatar}")
    em.set_author(name=f"{member}", icon_url=f"{userAvatar}")
    em.set_footer(text=f'Requested by {ctx.message.author}', icon_url=f"{ctx.author.avatar.url}")
    await ctx.reply(embed=em)

where this worked fine

[regal cove]

that would be great but is there any way for me to fix the code i have right now?

[cold sonnet]

    member = await bot.fetch_user(user.id)```please remove these lines completely

[cloud dawn]

replace icon_url=f"{ctx.author.banner_url}" to icon_url=ctx.author.banner.url

[slate swan]

well okay done that

still dont know how to get a users banner tho

[regal cove]

why did that get deleted?

[cloud dawn]

You'd need to create a good file it's hard to tell without knowing the structure.

[cloud dawn]

The same.

Just don't use underscores that's old code.

[honest shoal]

how 😧

AttributeError: 'Member' object has no attribute 'add__roles'```

[slate swan]

Where can I learn discord.py

[vale wing]

You put two _ instead of 1

[cloud dawn]

!resources

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[honest shoal]

LOL, I thought fonts were wide on console

[slate swan]

yo isnt that from glowstiks vid

[eager hill]

yeah

hes the goat

[slate swan]

i agree

[eager hill]

is there any way my bot could run a / command upon a keyword in chat?

like the only solution i found was to do

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    username = str(message.author).split('#')[0]
    user_message = str(message.content)
    channel = str(message.channel.name)
    print(f'{username}: {user_message} ({channel})')
    if message.author == bot.user:
        return
    if message.channel.name == "general":
        if "release" in user_message.lower():
            await message.channel.send_message(f'run /faq')

but i would rather have it run the / command instead of telling the user to run it yk?

[cloud dawn]

The command has to be a hybrid command or message command.

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context then get the context

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_context

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

Returns the invocation context from the message or interaction.

This is a more low-level counter-part for [`process_commands()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands "discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands") to allow users more fine grained control over the processing.

The returned context is not guaranteed to be a valid invocation context, [`Context.valid`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.valid "discord.ext.commands.Context.valid") must be checked to make sure it is. If the context is not valid then it is not a valid candidate to be invoked under [`invoke()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke "discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke").

Note

In order for the custom context to be used inside an interaction-based context (such as [`HybridCommand`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HybridCommand "discord.ext.commands.HybridCommand")) then this method must be overridden to return that class...

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.invoke then invoke

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.invoke

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

Calls a command with the arguments given.

This is useful if you want to just call the callback that a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") holds internally.

Note

This does not handle converters, checks, cooldowns, pre-invoke, or after-invoke hooks in any matter. It calls the internal callback directly as-if it was a regular function.

You must take care in passing the proper arguments when using this function...

[eager hill]

so would i do ```py
if "release" in user_message.lower():
await invoke(interaction, "faq")

faq is the command im trying to use

[cloud dawn]

Not that easy.

[slate swan]

id try the discord.py server TT

[slate swan]

well

if u figure it out please show me

[untold bay]

Can someone show me an example of a properly initialized client = discord.Client() please?

[cloud dawn]

if "release" in user_message.lower():
    ctx = await bot.get_context(message)
    await ctx.invoke(discord.utils.find(lambda m: m.name == "faq", bot.commands))

Rough estimation since no clue how hybrid commands react to this.

[cloud dawn]

You don't need any intents, just a bare object is fine.

If you are making a slash command bot you don't need any intents in fact to make it work.

What is above this function? Issue may be there.

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

[dense merlin]

@cloud dawn

[slate swan]

guys i am losing my mind

[cloud dawn]

I don't see anything wrong.. could you maybe copy the decorator and the async def line? Not the whole function just that. And paste it here?

[slate swan]

can someone help me with a command thats like an avatar one but with peoples banners

[dense merlin]

@tree.command(name = "username", description = "Generate a random Username")

[eager hill]

i give up on hybrid commands

[untold bay]

Uhhhh... I think it might have gotten worse... maybe? https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ipokogadad

[cold sonnet]

restart your ide

[cloud dawn]

Told you it wasn't easy.

[dense merlin]

i had this issue for about a week

[cold sonnet]

then that won't help

[dense merlin]

but ill try

[cloud dawn]

It all looks fine.. must be something somewhere that's giving you this issue..

[cloud dawn]

Indentation does look a bit off, maybe that's it?

[dense merlin]

where is it off?

[cloud dawn]

Well the "token" part does need a valid token.

[eager hill]

if message.channel.name == "general":
        if "release" in user_message.lower():
            # empherial message
            await message.channel.send("run / faq", ephemeral=True)

now im trying to make this message emphemeral and i get TypeError: Messageable.send() got an unexpected keyword argument 'ephemeral'

[naive briar]

Only interaction can send ephemeral messages

[eager hill]

yeah i figure, how can i make this ```py
@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
username = str(message.author).split('#')[0]
user_message = str(message.content)
channel = str(message.channel.name)
print(f'{username}: {user_message} ({channel})')
if message.author == bot.user:
return
if message.channel.name == "general":
if "release" in user_message.lower():
# empherial message
await message.channel.send("run / faq", ephemeral=True)

an interaction

[naive briar]

Make a slash command probably

[cloud dawn]

There isn't a way to make a message into an interaction.

[naive briar]

Or just DM the user

[eager hill]

unfortunate

thanks for the help

[dense merlin]

i fixed the indents still doesnt work

[cloud dawn]

Is it a lot of code? If it isn't I could debug it a bit.

[dense merlin]

This function has 47 lines

so not sure

[cloud dawn]

I meant the bot.

[dense merlin]

149

[untold bay]

the token should be correct.

Does the ratelimit prevent it from working properly? or just make it slow?

It prevents your bot from working at all

You've been basically blocked from discord

Go into your "Python" folder in your Applications folder, and double click the "Install Certificates" or w/e it's called

u need to manually install the certificates iirc

[dense merlin]

iim on vscode i dont have python folder

[sick birch]

Open up Finder

Click on "Applications" on the left bar

You should see a "Python" folder in there

Inside the "Python" folder there should be a file called something like "Install Certificates"
Double click on that to run it

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

the code runs fine but when i say coinflip it only says heads, so how can i get it to update while its running

[umbral pewter]

using discord.py anyone know why my command isnt working?

# Initalizing bot commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="?", intents = discord.Intents.all(), activity=discord.Game('Baking a pie!'))

@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    await ctx.send("Hello!")

theres more to it of course, but these are the parts I think are relevent

[torn sail]

Move the defer to above the purge

[slate swan]

Hello!

I am making a tickets bot for a friend and was wondering how to do something

code:

                guild = ctx.guild
                adm = guild.get_role(ADMIN_ROLE_ID)
                ownr = guild.get_role(OWNER_ROLE_ID)
                ticket_owner = inter.user
                if select.values[0] == "P":
                    ticket = await guild.create_text_channel(name=f"ticket-{ticket_owner}-purchase")
                    start_time = datetime.now()
                    await ticket.set_permissions(ticket_owner, send_messages=True, read_messages=True, add_reactions=True, embed_links=True, attach_files=True, read_message_history=True, external_emojis=True)
                    await ticket.set_permissions(adm, send_messages=True, read_messages=True, add_reactions=True, embed_links=True, attach_files=True, read_message_history=True, external_emojis=True)
                    await ticket.set_permissions(ownr, send_messages=True, read_messages=True, add_reactions=True, embed_links=True, attach_files=True, read_message_history=True, external_emojis=True)
                    await ticket.set_permissions(ctx.guild.default_role, send_messages=False, read_messages=False, view_channel=False)

I want it so after the user clicks the button it shows as thinking or whatever how would I do something like that?

It is an interaction : discord.Interaction

[slate swan]

hey does anyone know how to make like a 24 hour countdown?
ex:

Refreshes in: 23:59:14

and it just edits and counts it down everytime

[cloud dawn]

Use loops

[cloud dawn]

#discord-bots message

[frosty umbra]

Whats the point in using multiple files for your discord bot rather than doing it all in one?

Like what are the advantages and disadvantages

[cloud dawn]

There are only advantages.

Well unless you don't know how to make it.

am i just stupid

[cloud dawn]

It's more organized and readable. It's also not just that the bot is generally better.. since most people aren't coding it correctly if they do it all in one file. Multi file also allows for better hot reloading.

[slate swan]

can anyone send me their purge command, i can't find a answer

[rare echo]

just remove required

[frosty umbra]

Does that mean I should switch to multifile? I generally do it all in one for ease

[rare echo]

should be required by default no?

[slate swan]

i did

[rare echo]

show code

[slate swan]

^

[frosty umbra]

And what should I be splitting it to like one file per command or wha

[slate swan]

how do i make my bot check if the content isnt a id then sent to send a message saying send a id

[rare echo]

why do you have ctx and interaction?

[cloud dawn]

Well issue is that code quickly gets to 1k lines.

[slate swan]

i'm not sure how to purge via interaction

[cloud dawn]

Categorized usually.

[frosty umbra]

Just interaction

[frosty umbra]

example categories?

[slate swan]

interaction.channel.purge(limit=amount)?

[frosty umbra]

Also whats wrong with 1k lines

[cloud dawn]

utility, fun, misc

[frosty umbra]

No like dont use ctx

[frosty umbra]

Oh I see,

[slate swan]

what do i use then

[frosty umbra]

Interaction

[rare echo]

yes?

[slate swan]

ok ty, i just switched over to slash commands so im experiencing new stuff xd

[rare echo]

np

[cloud dawn]

Nothing if you're coding properly still.

[frosty umbra]

Slash commands doesn’t use ctx it jses interaction

[rare echo]

well

[slate swan]

discord.app_commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command 'purge' raised an exception: NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction```

[frosty umbra]

I sort of like it, it makes me feel like I’m doing alot lol but I definitely want to make a configurations file for when I make bots for others

[frosty umbra]

Sync?

[slate swan]

yes

"Synced 3 command(s)"

[cloud dawn]

Show the purge command.

[frosty umbra]

Also i dont think @lavish micamands.has_permissions works with slAsh commands

[frosty umbra]

You should edit the permissions in the integrations menu for slash commands

[cloud dawn]

Well if you do use cogs then adding cogs for specific peoples needs without coding the whole base again certainly speeds up the process.

[slate swan]

it hasn't gave me a error

or anything related to it

[frosty umbra]

What specifically are cogs

Configs?

[cloud dawn]

A message command check for a slash command?

[frosty umbra]

Fat noob here

[rare echo]

is that what you guys are talking about? are all your commands in one big ass file?

[cloud dawn]

Cogs are like groups of commands usually.

[frosty umbra]

Not me saying that already

[slate swan]

hm?

[frosty umbra]

Oh I think I know what you mean

[frosty umbra]

My discord bot is one file

[rare echo]

D:

[frosty umbra]

I was just wondering what the advantages and disadvantages were of not doing that

[cloud dawn]

Might as well oneline it

[rare echo]

im praying its not that large

[frosty umbra]

Cring

[frosty umbra]

800 lines ish

[rare echo]

ok thats not too bad

[frosty umbra]

I like coding in one file

[rare echo]

speaking in terms of amount to transfer

[frosty umbra]

I structure it so related commands are near each other

For example the rep command is above the repleaderboard command

[rare echo]

but why not have individual files relating to itself?

[frosty umbra]

Idk I just have never really done that before

But I’m thinking about doing it

[cloud dawn]

Well if you are going to code bots for others coding just a really good base and just build cogs on top of it what they need is more efficient than removing chunks of code everytime you make a new bot.

[rare echo]

one file, 6 commands related to x- second file, 9 commands relaying to y- etc.

[frosty umbra]

I code brand new bots for everyone kekw

[rare echo]

a lot more manageable

[slate swan]

can anyone send their purge slash command please 🙏

[cloud dawn]

Experienced dpy coders being busy with the bot base 95% of the time and 5% coding the commands..

[frosty umbra]

Yeah like I would make a file for rep and put all rep commands in there

The bot base?

[rare echo]

are you still having issues with it?

[slate swan]

yes

[rare echo]

whats the error?

[cloud dawn]

Well if you have the base and code on top of that you'd update all their bots at once keeping them up to date and also keeping their specific commands per bot.

[rare echo]

i might have missed it if you already sent

[frosty umbra]

So you mean like I make a base bot with a bunch of common functions and then just add commands for specific people?

[rare echo]

i might be wrong but this is just a sync issue, no?

[slate swan]

i'm not sure

• i'm not experience with slash commands

[rare echo]

404 from a slash command

[frosty umbra]

I tried saying a sync issue before

He said it synced

[cloud dawn]

Like a really good base to build upon? Hell yeah a lot of bot coders do that, well, who know what they are doing that is.

[frosty umbra]

I usually make bots to fit their specific needs

[rare echo]

throw in a debug guild id, then test it to see if its a sync issue

[slate swan]

am i doing something wrong?

[frosty umbra]

But it would be cool if the bots I made came already with like moderation and stuff

[cloud dawn]

Then if it breaks you'd need to help everyone at the same time since discord suc

[rare echo]

idk i dont use tree or wtv that it x)

[frosty umbra]

How to get rate limits

[rare echo]

cant help ya there

[frosty umbra]

Dont sync on ready

[cloud dawn]

Not everyone wants that.

[frosty umbra]

They wouldn’t have to use it

Or they could disable the module

[cloud dawn]

Sometimes a good bot just has 3 commands that can actually perform them really good.

[slate swan]

well where else do i sync

[frosty umbra]

Make a sync command

[rare echo]

make a command to sync

[slate swan]

like /sync?

[frosty umbra]

Preferably a prefix command

[cloud dawn]

setup_hook guys

[frosty umbra]

Like -sync

[rare echo]

i wouldnt use a slash command to sync slash commands

[slate swan]

then .sync?

[frosty umbra]

Sure

[slate swan]

okay

[frosty umbra]

setup_hook?

[rare echo]

smells like extra work

[cloud dawn]

It is

[frosty umbra]

Ohhh I see what you mean now

The base of the bot is things included for everyone

And its one file itself

So if I update it I just send the new file to everyone

I think I see what you meant now

[cloud dawn]

Well it would update automatically but you're seeing more clearly now.

[rare echo]

saving them money by sending just new lenses for their glasses not the entire frame

[slate swan]

oh it purges but doesnt send message and just spits out that error

[cloud dawn]

Just charge a subscription lmao

[frosty umbra]

The thing is each bot I create is sort of unique

Its for each individual persons needs

[cloud dawn]

The command and events right?

[rare echo]

probably trying to get z without it being done?

[frosty umbra]

Yeah

[rare echo]

just toss amount instead of z since itll do that amount anyway

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[frosty umbra]

They are tailored to the persons needs

[cloud dawn]

What do those have to do with the base?

[frosty umbra]

Ok now im confused

What is the base

[cloud dawn]

The base is just useful stuff and initializing the bot.

[frosty umbra]

Bruah

Initializing?

Pov: bot.run

[cloud dawn]

We'll actually bot.start if we're talking ethics.

[frosty umbra]

Breh

I think I know what you mean though, I think, but the bots I make are also usually for a single server

So there isnt much initialisation

Unless im completely wrong and still dont understand

[cloud dawn]

I mean heck you can code a single bot that has different command and events for each guild.

[frosty umbra]

I mean yeah you could LMAO

but I usually give the source to serber owners so it can be their bot application

Unless im working with the server in a direct way

But i think i have the understanding of base doen

Like the bit where you getGuildID fill in variables with the right content etc

The configuration for a specific server

[cloud dawn]

I'd use c# for the ultimate bots, I'd prob be a billionaire.

[frosty umbra]

Breh

C# was made for sin city

[cloud dawn]

But it has a GUI

[frosty umbra]

(Im too stupid to use it(I havent tried))

[cloud dawn]

And you can add graphs

[frosty umbra]

Bruh

Make your own graphs in python

[cloud dawn]

Base releases.

[frosty umbra]

Hehehaw

[cloud dawn]

Updates

[frosty umbra]

Isnt c# used for making games

Not discord bots

[cloud dawn]

In unity yes

[frosty umbra]

Smh

[cloud dawn]

c# used for a lot of apps.

[frosty umbra]

I need to learn java, not for discord coding but just because apparently its a good language to know

[cloud dawn]

java is ok

[frosty umbra]

It has alot of usage

[cloud dawn]

Just all of android is based on it lol

[frosty umbra]

Where it spreads to websites and games and loads

[cloud dawn]

websites and games?

[frosty umbra]

Javascript

[cloud dawn]

nahh

[frosty umbra]

Websites

Games minecraft?

[cloud dawn]

Games are usually c++

names one exception

[frosty umbra]

Me when mojang:

Roblox using lua:

[frosty umbra]

Fair

But isnt c++ really difficult

[cloud dawn]

It's the end boss

[frosty umbra]

Like wtf

[cloud dawn]

Nah rust is worse

[frosty umbra]

Rust?

Doesn’t rust have a bunch of mods for it

[cloud dawn]

std = standard out c-out <<

return 0 class void

[frosty umbra]

Me not understanding at alll

[rare echo]

cant rust literally println?

[frosty umbra]

C++ is something you would definitely take a course in

[cloud dawn]

Rust can do a lot of things but sometimes too much.

[frosty umbra]

You want a teacher not a youtube video

[cloud dawn]

I just want my docs thanks :3

[frosty umbra]

Bro reads the docs to learn a new language

[cloud dawn]

No one can teach it better than the guy who literally made it and has a written documentation.

[frosty umbra]

I love python and all but the job opportunities it takes you down are really limited

Online it all says data analytics

Which sounds really boring

[cloud dawn]

AI, ML, Security

[frosty umbra]

ML?

[cloud dawn]

Lots of automation inside companies.

[frosty umbra]

Also AI is python based?

[cloud dawn]

machine learning.

[frosty umbra]

Oh fair

[cloud dawn]

It can be.

[frosty umbra]

Me about to work for amazon fresh stores using python

[granite brook]

anyone know how to do these "choices" thing? as the tutorial I found didn't work out, it says AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'choices'

bot declaration:

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

command, I'm trying to make:

@bot.tree.command(name = "pc")
@bot.choices(choices=[
    bot.Choice(name="create", value="create"),
    bot.Choice(name="set", value="set"),
    bot.Choice(name="update", value="update"),
    bot.Choice(name="delete", value="delete"),
])
async def pc_slash(interaction: discord.Interaction, command: bot.Choice[str]):
    pass

[cloud dawn]

app_commands has choices

[frosty umbra]

Ill be back later see you guys thanks for the help

[granite brook]

oh, alright ty :D

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.app_commands.choices

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.choices

@discord.app_commands.choices(**parameters)```
Instructs the given parameters by their name to use the given choices for their choices.

Example...

[cloud dawn]

Click on the link for examples.

[granite brook]

hmmm now I get unknown parameter given: choices :/

but I'll test around a few things maybe I find the problem

[cloud dawn]

Did you check the examples?

[granite brook]

yea, and when I copy one in, that works, so now I'm trying to change it to mine one step at a time to see where it decides to not work :D

I found it, it was a naming error from my part, didn't realize I need to name two things the same

[slate swan]

yo

[slate swan]

How can I get messge history for a channel?

!d discord.abc.Messageable.history

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.history

async for ... in history(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None)```
Returns an [asynchronous iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator "(in Python v3.11)") that enables receiving the destination’s message history.

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

Examples

Usage...

[slate swan]

Yo dawh

[tacit storm]

how exactly is that a bad thing lol

imo the more an language can do, the better it is.

[primal token]

The abstraction level of a programming language used for a project should depend on the user and application.

Some users like low level languages, while some use low level languages due to the lack of abstractions making it easier for them, some people use high level languages to make there life easier or to have set of rules they like or libraries/platforms the language may have.

[untold bay]

Actually a lot are made using C# because that's the language Unity uses.

[primal token]

Games also use C++ due to unreal engine!

[untold bay]

Yes, but it's actually a variant (Unreal C++).

[primal token]

Mhm thats interesting, what does the general unreal engine use?

[untold bay]

wdym?

[shrewd apex]

https://github.com/FallenDeity/PokeLance
planning to publish this as a package just completed the base yesterday any feedback?

[primal token]

Well, you said only a variant of unreal engine uses C++, so what does the general/main one ig? use?

I dont really know much about games😅

[untold bay]

No, no, no. UE uses a variant of C++ called "Unreal C++".

[primal token]

Crazy, you even got the @sick birch examples,

https://github.com/FallenDeity/PokeLance/blob/master/examples/basic_usage.py#L16

[unkempt canyon]

examples/basic_usage.py line 16

return None```

[primal token]

Ahhh, sorry😅

[sick birch]

i am going to report you

[primal token]

😔

[shrewd apex]

ah yeah i still have to create a few usage examples for tutorials docs currently only code is documented

[primal token]

why so much explicit imports from the same directory?

https://github.com/FallenDeity/PokeLance/blob/master/pokelance/cache/cache.py#L9-L56

[shrewd apex]

mypy strict

[primal token]

Smh, just like andy, you guys both want to see the world burn

[shrewd apex]

i had all declared so first time i did wild import but mypy wanted explicit so i just went ahead and did it

[shrewd apex]

[primal token]

cant you just use group imports?!?

or does mypy not like that eitheir

[shrewd apex]

didn't try

[primal token]

It probably does since you've already done them in multiple modules

[shrewd apex]

i was using ruff for linting so ruff didn't like the way mypy import it preferred the * import and mypy vice versa so just muted ruff there

[primal token]

From an overall view, seems like allot of abstractions none the less

[sick birch]

Abstraction is the name of the game here

[shrewd apex]

in the models yeah but lots of endpoints

[primal token]

Go abstract a good example robin

[shrewd apex]

😏

[primal token]

PR incoming!

Not from me but from robin!

[slate swan]

bro this is cancer

💀 just from pokelance important models

and use models.Class

@shrewd apex ^

[shrewd apex]

maybe later after i am done with docs and all too much to type 💀

I'll do it before publishing

[slate swan]

it's literally just find and replace

[glad cradle]

why you don't use from __future__ import annotations? this would allow you to specify your classes not as strings but with the class name itself

[shrewd apex]

mhm I'll add it this evening

[slate swan]

@discord.ui.select( # the decorator that lets you specify the properties of the select menu
        placeholder = "SELECT PAYMENT METHOD", # the placeholder text that will be displayed if nothing is selected
        min_values = 1, # the minimum number of values that must be selected by the users
        max_values = 1, # the maximum number of values that can be selected by the users

    async def select_callback(self, select, interaction): # the function called when the user is done selecting options
        await interaction.response.send_message(f"Awesome! I like {select.values[0]} too!")

What do I need to add to give an output when the option is selected?

[upbeat gust]

the param order of callbacks is self, interaction, select

[slate swan]

thank you that worked

[robust fulcrum]

Guys what difference between
bot.start() and bot.run()
And which one should I use?

[slate swan]

ill suggest using bot.run because it enables logging and stuff by default

you also won't have to use a Seperate asyncio
run with it

[robust fulcrum]

Ok

Guys why i getting error
no module named 'cogs'
This is my code

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import os

class botclass(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or(">"),intents=discord.Intents.all())
        
    async def setup_hook(self):
        print("i am ready")
        for cog in os.listdir("rustcomp/cogs"):
            if cog.endswith(".py") and cog.startswith("_"):
                try:
                  load = cog.replace(".py","")
                  load = f"cogs.{load}"
                  await bot.load_extension(load)
                except Exception as e:
                    print(e)

bot = botclass()

[upbeat gust]

you dont have a folder named cogs in your cogs folder do you

[robust fulcrum]

Yep

[upbeat gust]

rustcomp/cogs/cogs doesnt exist as a module

[robust fulcrum]

I have file called _rust_compiler in it but that's empty

[upbeat gust]

dont go into cogs twice

[robust fulcrum]

Where am I going twice?

[slate swan]

i think so as well he should have cocks folder

[upbeat gust]

what's your cwd?

[upbeat gust]

hahahahaha

[slate swan]

i mean I have it as well , like i have a lot of cocks folder

[upbeat gust]

thats so funny

[robust fulcrum]

I am not going into cogs twice
I am formatting the string with cogs. there

[robust fulcrum]

Cwd???

I am not able to understand what you mean

[slate swan]

Means file directory

[robust fulcrum]

Oh cwd = current working directory

[slate swan]

Yep

[robust fulcrum]

ig it's rustcomp

[naive briar]

!d discord.Client.change_presence

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

```py
game = discord.Game("with the API")
await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.idle, activity=game)
```   Changed in version 2.0: Removed the `afk` keyword-only parameter...

[naive briar]

It only takes keyword arguments

Also, your presence won't change because you've only defined the activity once but never changed it, so it's pointless to try to change it every 10 seconds

[full marten]

hello everyone, i have a question. I saw this gist.github https://gist.github.com/AbstractUmbra/a9c188797ae194e592efe05fa129c57f#file-1-primer-md and i don't understand what's the difference about sync with goup and sync without group

[naive briar]

What do you mean?

[slate swan]

you type them manually instead of using the discord.py cache ( ctx.guild.roles)

[timid spade]

i am taking role id as input from user
so i should take role name instead?

[slate swan]

if its consuming any input from a command how will it be a persistent view lol
you'll have to run the command everytime you restart the bot

[timid spade]

ouch
then how tf bots like slash bot manage to do it

[slate swan]

theres sync with guild and sync without guild

[slate swan]

they don't use discord.py like persistent system but something simpler ig, i can imagine doing this:
user invokes the command wih guild ids:
you make a simple view with role names added in the select.

and the you can use an on_interaction event with checks that adds the role based on the role names...

i might be very wrong when i say that :p

actually wait there's some open source bots that use this lemme check

[hushed galleon]

afaik with libraries like discord.js, you only get that interaction_create event so it becomes your responsibility to know what the interaction is meant to do

d.py views abstract it into callbacks which makes it feel a lot more object-oriented; the only expectation is that whenever your bot starts up, you use Client.add_view() to tell d.py what views it can respond to

[slate swan]

yeah but if there's like 10-15 select-roles setup ( that they're doing ) it would be hellish to begin with

[hushed galleon]

yeah definitely should use the builtin RoleSelect class for that

[slate swan]

wish discord allowed to limit the roles that show up there

[outer flint]

what's the best way to cycle through all members?

[frosty umbra]

How can I make a bot have a custom profile picture for a specific guild like dyno can with dyno premium

[slate swan]

all members in the bot, or all members in a guild

[slate swan]

dyno premium uses seperate bot apps for each premium color iirc

if you look into the tags of normal and premium bot it's different

[slate swan]

await bot.user.edit(avatar=YOUR_URL_HERE) ?

that edits the global avatar

[outer flint]

in a guild

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.members , requires members intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.members

property members```
A list of members that belong to this guild.

[slate swan]

you can use a for loop on it

[outer flint]

ok perfect, then I'll just check which of them have added a reaction to a message

[slate swan]

!d discord.Reaction.users :)

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction.users

async for ... in users(*, limit=None, after=None)```
Returns an [asynchronous iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator "(in Python v3.11)") representing the users that have reacted to the message.

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

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

Examples

Usage...

[outer flint]

I wonder if it's better in this way
for all users
if have addded reaction to message && other stuff
then do Y

or do the opposite
search all the users that have added reaction to message
if other stuff
do Y

[frosty umbra]

But like each individual server can have its own profile picture for the bot

So does dyno create a new application for each server?

[slate swan]

the latter

[frosty umbra]

And considering how big it is would it not get limited

[slate swan]

or maybe they make you do that. mee6 does the same

[frosty umbra]

They make you make the application and then put in the token

Cant the bot token give access to your discord account or something

Thats the warning discord gives me when I try to send my bot token in a message on discord

[slate swan]

nah

mee6 asks for your bot token in order to create a custom bot, maybe dyno does the same

[frosty umbra]

i guess maybe

[slate swan]

there's limited avatars

[frosty umbra]

maybe it was mee6 that i saw with a custom avatar

[slate swan]

8 bots i.e.

[frosty umbra]

but it makes sense

8 bots all doing the same thing

[slate swan]

yeah mee6 can do that

;-;

[outer flint]

something like this?

@bot.command()
@commands.has_role("Botmakers")
async def players(self, ctx):
    channel = self.bot.get_channel(channel_id)
    message = await channel.fetch_message(message_id)
    users = set()
    for reaction in message.reactions:
        async for user in reaction.users():
            users.add(user)
    await ctx.send(users)

Get all the users that, in a specific channel, have reacted to a specific message

[slate swan]

yes indeed this should work

yep

[outer flint]

obvs channel_id and message_id are defined

wonder why the bot tells me that the command "players" doesn't exist

[slate swan]

looking like u r using cog

[slate swan]

it will be @commands.command

for cog

[outer flint]

I put that into the main "cog"
here

[slate swan]

.

@commands.command()
@commands.has.....

like dat

[outer flint]

all the others commands in the same .py work though

[slate swan]

can u show the start of that file?

[slate swan]

btw why u using self?

self doesnt make any sense on normal commands

[outer flint]

🤔

[full marten]

leave it i already found out

[outer flint]

Used to... 😅

[slate swan]

remove self

it's normal command

also make sure to restart the bot

[outer flint]

Oh yeah, using the restart command

[hushed galleon]

giving your bot token merely allows other users to control your bot, but it is possible for someone to do certain actions as you if you leak the client id+secret instead
https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/oauth2#client-credentials-grant

[slate swan]

hopefully u fixed it xd

[timid spade]

They were right, discord.js is better innit? 🤡

[slate swan]

you don't need to switch language for that

!d discord.on_interaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_interaction

discord.on_interaction(interaction)```
Called when an interaction happened.

This currently happens due to slash command invocations or components being used.

Warning

This is a low level function that is not generally meant to be used. If you are working with components, consider using the callbacks associated with the [`View`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View "discord.ui.View") instead as it provides a nicer user experience.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

use this

[robust fulcrum]

Anyone pls help me

[outer flint]

seems like it can't fetch the message

@bot.command()
async def players(ctx):
    author_roles = ctx.author.roles
    if any(
        role.name in {"Botmakers", "Admin", "Moderators", "Staff", "Lead Devs"}
        for role in author_roles
    ):
        channel = bot.get_channel(channel_id)
        message = await channel.fetch_message(message_id)
        print("message ok")
        users = set()
        print("users created")
        for reaction in message.reactions:
            print("reaction")
            async for user in reaction.users():
                # if user.role != "Player":
                users.add(user)
        await ctx.send(users)

[slate swan]

makes sense

did u check docs?

[outer flint]

I checked the message_id [I set it manually at beginning of file] and it's correct

[slate swan]

wait imma check for u

[outer flint]

from the doc it seemed like that was the way to write that

[slate swan]

is it int?

the id

!d discord.TextChannel.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.fetch\_message

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

Retrieves a single [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") from the destination.

[outer flint]

uhm... I wonder if it's too long and wasn't created as an int

1000324697663209502

[slate swan]

is message_id = 1000324697663209502

or
message_id = "12121212112"?

[outer flint]

yes

channel_id = 914105154469498880
message_id = 1000324697663209502

[slate swan]

fun fact: fetch_message doesn't care if you provide a string or integer

[slate swan]

🤷‍♂️

ik, but it will work with a string as well
it makes an api request which can be in form of str or int

[night crater]

Python integers can be arbitrary size, there is no effective limit

[slate swan]

oh cool

[outer flint]

strange the channel fetching is right, but not the message one

[slate swan]

does the bot has perms?

[slate swan]

check this errors

u can get

[outer flint]

yes the bot has all perms needed [admin]

[slate swan]

Then the message is too old maybe

[outer flint]

well the message is very old indeed

[slate swan]

[outer flint]

5 months

[slate swan]

try checking with new message id for test

[outer flint]

I thought older

[slate swan]

2-3 weeks is the limit maybe

[outer flint]

nah, that ain't the problem

[slate swan]

just try with newer id vro

and fetch the messageif doesnt work then idk xd

[outer flint]

tried with newer ids [messages from a few minutes ago]

same result :T

[slate swan]

cooooooool

are u using discord.py tho xd

[outer flint]

yep :T

nono wait I miread, I'm using disnake

[slate swan]

BRUH

[outer flint]

I thought I said that

[slate swan]

well for disnake the method is just same

get_channel is same too

then whats the prob

[outer flint]

I knew god had a punishment for me

[slate swan]

can u try printing message?

print(message)

[outer flint]

doesn't get printed at all

[slate swan]

add this line and run the command

just do it xd

[timid spade]

Ah, how can I use this for that?

[slate swan]

!d disnake.PartialMessageable

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.PartialMessageable

class disnake.PartialMessageable```
Represents a partial messageable to aid with working messageable channels when only a channel ID is present.

The only way to construct this class is through [`Client.get_partial_messageable()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Client.get_partial_messageable "disnake.Client.get_partial_messageable").

Note that this class is trimmed down and has no rich attributes.

New in version 2.0...

[slate swan]

hmm

[slate swan]

!d discord.Interaction you get this class as an argument in the event
first you'll check the type of interaction so that its select type
next you will check if the select was one made for your select roles
then you can get the label of interaction using interaction.values and convert it into a role using discord.utils.get(interaction.guild.roles, name= the name)
and finally add the role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction

class discord.Interaction```
Represents a Discord interaction.

An interaction happens when a user does an action that needs to be notified. Current examples are slash commands and components.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

!d disnake.Client.get_partial_messageable

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Client.get\_partial\_messageable

get_partial_messageable(id, *, type=None)```
Returns a partial messageable with the given channel ID.

This is useful if you have a channel\_id but don’t want to do an API call to send messages to it.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

@outer flint ig try

wait no

that doesnt make any sense 💀

!d disnake.Client.get_message

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Client.get\_message

get_message(id)```
Gets the message with the given ID from the bot’s message cache.

[slate swan]

LoL

use that

for that u dont need to get channel

bot.get_message(id)

the for reaction in message.reactions

[outer flint]

so just message = bot.get_message(message_id) ?

[sullen pewter]

why isn't it returning what I want

[slate swan]

yep

do print(string.upper) ig xd

idk lol

[outer flint]

uhm... it is none

[slate swan]

printing None?

[outer flint]

        message = bot.get_message(message_id)
        print(message)
        print("message ok")
        users = set()
        print("users created")
        for reaction in message.reactions:
            print("reaction")
            async for user in reaction.users():
                # if user.role != "Player":
                users.add(user)
        await ctx.send(users)

[slate swan]

tried with new message id?

it said it will get the message from bot cache

[outer flint]

yeah, even with new message id same None

[slate swan]

It's an object it's not suppose to return anything

how do i make my bot also check for another message

[robust fulcrum]

Guys why i getting error
no module named 'cogs'
This is my code

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import os

class botclass(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or(">"),intents=discord.Intents.all())
        
    async def setup_hook(self):
        print("i am ready")
        for cog in os.listdir("rustcomp/cogs"):
            if cog.endswith(".py") and cog.startswith("_"):
                try:
                  load = cog.replace(".py","")
                  load = f"cogs.{load}"
                  await bot.load_extension(load)
                except Exception as e:
                    print(e)

bot = botclass()

[naive briar]

You have to give it a valid path to the cog

[robust fulcrum]

I am not able to understand what path to give it

[naive briar]

What does your project structure look like

[robust fulcrum]

My code is in init.py

rustcomp-|
    bot-|
        __init__.py
    cogs-|
        rust_compiler.py

[slate swan]

try:
.... await client.wait_for(..., timeout=seconds to wait)
except asyncio.TimeoutException:
.... x

where do i add the code above @naive briar

[naive briar]

Uhhhhhhh

I really don't know about that

[robust fulcrum]

Hmmm?

[outer flint]

What/who?

[slate swan]

try message.content

[slate swan]

!d wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

Naw.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.11)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.11)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.11)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

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

[slate swan]

Thanks

it's ok ;]

[slate swan]

The get_message is an object so it's suppose to return none, you must do message.content

[upbeat otter]

💀 what...

[naive briar]

What the

[slate swan]

?

[slate swan]

fire

[upbeat otter]

• get_message is an object
• objects are basically class instances of None
• message = None and None has an attribute content

🛐 everyday godly advice

[slate swan]

cog.startswith

but rust_compiler doesnt even star with _

[slate swan]

Sorry my explaining is very shitty

My brain dies sometimes

[upbeat otter]

💀

[slate swan]

🤝

[slate swan]

i want my bot to wait for 2 things

[cold sonnet]

huh

[slate swan]

at the same time

[upbeat otter]

ok

[slate swan]

possible

not at the same time

[naive briar]

Did you put double quotes around it

[slate swan]

xd
first u have to wait for 1 message then for another

[cold sonnet]

I don't understand anything that happens here rn

[upbeat otter]

same

[shrewd apex]

[cold sonnet]

get_message is a method of the Client class

[slate swan]

i have my bot waiting for a user to send a id however i also want my bot to wait for a user to send a message containing "#"

[cold sonnet]

which returns a Message instance

[slate swan]

sup

[naive briar]

What?
