discord-bots

[keen dust]

you see, you've specified the variable as commands not bot

use await commands.tree.sync() and it should work

[mighty pilot]

whelp. always the simple stuff

[keen dust]

lol, we all make mistakes

[mighty pilot]

discord.ext.commands has no attribute 'tree'

[keen dust]

alright

instead of using commands try changing the variable to bot or anything else you'd like

[mighty pilot]

i have bot set to commands.Bot

[slate swan]

the function doesnt look like that its in a class, is it?

class Foo:
    def in_a_class(self):
        ...
def not_in_a_class(self):
     ...

[mighty pilot]

can i have hybrid commands and slash commands in the same bot? hadnt considered that might be an issue

i dont have anything in classes right now

[keen dust]

oh yeah thats right as well

[slate swan]

what is self doing there then

[mighty pilot]

that was a result of me throwing stuff in trying to get something different to happen

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    await bot.tree.sync()
    print('ready')

channel_id = 960040150765817907
number = [1]

@commands.hybrid_command()
async def question(ctx):
    print('n')

bot.run(TOKEN)```

thats everything not commented out of the file right now except the token and imports

getting this error still

[keen dust]

@bot.hybrid_command()

[slate swan]

@bot.hybrid_command

[keen dust]

pog

jinx

[slate swan]

i wrote it only to ping someone named @bot

bot didnt work this time sadly 😔

[keen dust]

rip

[mighty pilot]

so why is that one bot but regular commands are still @commands and slash commands still @app_commands

works now though. thanks

[keen dust]

np

[slate swan]

they are different things, Basically the base decorator for creating coroutines to command objects
commands.command -> creates a command object
bot.command -> same as above but adds the command to the bot

app_commands.command -> creates a slash command
tree.command -> same as above but adds the command to the tree

same for tree commands

[mighty pilot]

gets confusing sometimes

[slate swan]

what's confusing about it

[mighty pilot]

i guess i just havent looked at that part of the docs enough for the structure to make sense to me

[slate swan]

mb

[keen dust]

wait I just realized bots can't dm users who don't allow dms from users on a server unless they're friends...

[slate swan]

yea

and bots cant be friends

[keen dust]

thats...annoying

Users can literally block them if they'd like

[slate swan]

that's the intention

[keen dust]

to make it annoying?

[slate swan]

some bots mass dm users for promotion malicious links

[keen dust]

ye...

thats true

[slate swan]

its just to prevent that

• dms from bots get annoying unless asked for

i join some servers and boom, 10 dms from bots in the same server

leaves instantly

[keen dust]

alr ye thats true

[naive briar]

Say what's the problem is or send with an exception

Anyways

The init in your lass isn't a magic method

So change it

[mighty pilot]

says im missing the command, but im able to get the command object

[slate swan]

you need to use an instance of commands.Context not the class itself

[mighty pilot]

hmmm ok

[slate swan]

what you trying to do with IPs, sus

[maiden fable]

@slate swan if my bot error handler was yr name then i don't think it will ever wake up from 0 second naps

[slate swan]

thats' the future of tech

[severe mural]

uhh no solution here is ```
@show_manager_channel.error # <- name of the command + .error
async def show_manager_channel_error(error, interaction):
if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRole):
await interaction.response.send_message(f"{ctx.author.mention} Sorry, create role << Channels Manager - Giveaways Manager >> has been can permission commands :rotating_light:",ephemeral=True)
# message = await interaction.original_response()

else:
raise error```

[naive briar]

What's the problem

[severe mural]

there ⬆️

[naive briar]

Can you send the actual error from the terminal or console or whatever

[severe mural]

yes, nothing error console

is empty.

[severe mural]

empty nothingg console error, but maybe problem there

[naive briar]

Then you simply didn't respond to the interaction

[maiden fable]

Add this here:

else:
    raise error

[severe mural]

Ok

[severe mural]

moment is last final?

[maiden fable]

?

[severe mural]

edit example @maiden fable

maybe?

[maiden fable]

Indent

[severe mural]

but confuse

[maiden fable]

!indent

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[severe mural]

Ah

[maiden fable]

Mhm

[severe mural]

Correct?

ok

[maiden fable]

There u go

[severe mural]

ah yes but example no have rol and response error "Sorry create role..."

[naive briar]

!traceback

[unkempt canyon]

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.
While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "my_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    add_three("6")
  File "my_file.py", line 2, in add_three
    a = num + 3
        ~~~~^~~
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

If the traceback is long, use our pastebin.

[severe mural]

no no is.

is confuse.

[severe mural]

yeah but need example error response "sorry create role.."

no have rol think

[maiden fable]

In the else, can you add print(error) at the line above the raise error code

[severe mural]

hmm ok

[maiden fable]

And then, paste the error

!paste use this please

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:

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.

[severe mural]

error print: <discord.interactions.Interaction object at 0x7fd5abfd6a90>

[maiden fable]

Thought so

[maiden fable]

Your error and interaction params are interchanged

interaction should be the followed by error not the vice versa

[severe mural]

i see but have there interaction

hmmmm weird.

[maiden fable]

async def show_manager_channel(interaction, error)

[severe mural]

ahh

[maiden fable]

Instead of the other way around

[severe mural]

error, interaction change is l(interaction, error)

[maiden fable]

Yes

[severe mural]

i see.

my bad...

[maiden fable]

You were trying to check if the Interaction is the error lol

[severe mural]

yeah

same lol. // moment again print error.

[maiden fable]

Show the latest code

[severe mural]

yeah..

but... missing messag error.

no is "error red" but only message error

hmm

@maiden fable yeah but my think.. other before "ctx" is okay work message error (not need red)

and differents response no is error message

example message error bot: Role 'Channels Manager' is required to run this command.

[naive briar]

Of course, there's wouldn't be one

You're printing the error, not raising it

[severe mural]

yeah..

hmmm think.

there is old yes. work.

but interaction no work why red message lol.

hmm

Okay

no problem idea thanks old better.

@naive briar oh i see but think no is "commands.MissingRole"?

maybe there interaction?

ahh

my stupid sigh!

solution maybe done ok

[visual canyon]

does anyone have an example implementation of a command that opens a modal?

[leaden solar]

how do you add users to a private discord thread?

[visual canyon]

There should be a menu at the top right which lets you invite them. I think mentioning them works too

[shrewd apex]

!d discord.Interaction.response.send_modal

just interaction.response.send_modal will do

[visual canyon]

Thanks i did find an example, but I was specifically looking for how a slash command could open a modal. I think i have it now though

[leaden solar]

i mean in code lol

how do you invite users to a private thread?

[full marten]

i don't get errors in the terminal, it just pop up "This interaction failed"

[shrewd fjord]

maybe u r doing something big which is taking more than 3 seconds to complete

if doing such a thing before defering interaction it will always result in a fail

!e
print("checking")

oh bot alive

[full marten]

but, i'm just changing the button emoji in the meantime

what error u r getting

[leaden solar]

is it possible to log messages that are sent from a thread under a specific channel?

[full marten]

self should only be used inside classes

[alpine cove]

yes ofc

[shrewd fjord]

ye xd

[slate swan]

same as last one

[shrewd fjord]

get the thread channel

and use get messages

[shrewd fjord]

what changes u did to the code?

[slate swan]

what u gave me

[leaden solar]

how would that look like tho?

is it like a on event?

yes some kind of

u can use on_message event

pass their thread channel id

or u can use

because i have a variable with with create_thread() in it, should i just do like thread.read_message_history?

[alpine cove]

why not have a on_message event and check for the thread

[full marten]

thank you again, spooky :D

[leaden solar]

yeah how do i do that one

i mean i could not figure out how i could read messages from a specific thread from on message

[shrewd fjord]

u need to always update the code for that

[alpine cove]

if isinstance(channel, discord.Thread) and channel.id == your_id

[shrewd fjord]

if he uses history he can just wrap it with a command

[alpine cove]

wdym(

*?

[shrewd fjord]

like
.history #channel-name

here we can get the channel's history

[leaden solar]

the thing is that the threads are automatically created and gets deleted soon after so thats why i struggle find a way to log messages from those temporarily made threads

through on message

[shrewd fjord]

but for on_message event we always have to change the id

if we want some for diff threads too

[alpine cove]

oh nvm then

ohhh wait bruh

[shrewd fjord]

on_command_error doesnt takes arg

[alpine cove]

he's tryna log threads of a channel

[shrewd fjord]

bruh

yeah its a system that is for users to sell stuff in, and everything gets logged in it

[shrewd fjord]

yeaaaah then it's prettttyyyy easy

on_thread_delete
u can then check the history of channel and get the message and log it

kinda ez

[leaden solar]

[shrewd fjord]

it's discord.Member

not discord.member

[slate swan]

ok a sec

[shrewd fjord]

xd

[slate swan]

vd

tho it says discord.Member meaning the guy needs to be in the server right?

[shrewd fjord]

yes

u can use discord.User

[slate swan]

its an unban command not an ban...

[shrewd fjord]

if the user is not in the server

[shrewd fjord]

then use discord.User

[leaden solar]

oh wait btw, for the on thread create function, how can i detect if the thread are created under specific channel?

a*

[shrewd fjord]

in this argument u gotta use either user's id or name or somehow mention him

[shrewd fjord]

thread.catgory

!d discord.Thread

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Thread

class discord.Thread```
Represents a Discord thread.

x == y Checks if two threads are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the thread’s hash.

str(x) Returns the thread’s name.

New in version 2.0.

[leaden solar]

oh okay thank you!

[slate swan]

[shrewd fjord]

wait lil correction,
thread.category_id

i gave up already xdddd

[leaden solar]

oh okay, once again thank you for the help haha

[shrewd fjord]

[shrewd fjord]

we r always here to help tho xd

[ember nest]

I have question how to make something like
/setwelcomechannel for a welcome channel to make bot do the welcome on it (to be able to use the bot in more than 1 server)

[shrewd fjord]

@bot.command()
async def unban(ctx, user: discord.User):
await ctx.guild.unabn(user)
await ctx.send("your message")

@slate swan

[shrewd fjord]

database

[slate swan]

unabn\

[shrewd fjord]

if u want to avoid it add cahnnel id manually

[ember nest]

Yeah I know databases but is there any website or something saying how?

[shrewd fjord]

database are pretty hard

[ember nest]

Since I am going to make the bot as public bot

[shrewd fjord]

but ig use sqlite3

[shrewd fjord]

atleast for me xddd

[slate swan]

what to replace with this?

[shrewd fjord]

just replace your message

[ember nest]

I already have sqlite3 database for warn and mute system alright

[shrewd fjord]

nothing else

[slate swan]

the whole unban script?

[shrewd fjord]

then ez

[ember nest]

How to do the set command then

[shrewd fjord]

bro just replace ur unban message bruuuuuuuh

[shrewd fjord]

slash command?

[ember nest]

Yes

[slate swan]

wut message

[shrewd fjord]

but u know ?

like how did u make ur poll command slash

[ember nest]

Yeah

[shrewd fjord]

ahhh

code will help me 💀

gimme code let me check

[slate swan]

i guess u dont know how to fix my problem @slate swan

still ok

[shrewd fjord]

bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error,):
if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
CommandError=discord.Embed(title="🚫 ERROR !",description=f"{error}")
CommandError.set_footer(text="Deleting in 4 seconds...")
await ctx.reply(embed=CommandError)
time.sleep(3)

only part of this code enough btw

[slate swan]

the things he told me to do did not fix it

[shrewd fjord]

if u want global command handlers

for specific u can use the same

[ember nest]

I can't find any video or anything to show me how to /setchannel so what would I do @shrewd fjord

[shrewd fjord]

if isinsctance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
#your error msg

kindda like dat

[shrewd fjord]

just make a slash command of setchannel

and use ur database skills?

[ember nest]

I don't have database skills actually lol

Just learned a little bit for the warn

And probably forgot

[shrewd fjord]

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error,):

      CommandError=discord.Embed(title="🚫 ERROR !",description=f"{error}")
      CommandError.set_footer(text="Deleting in 4 seconds...")
      await ctx.reply(embed=CommandError)
      time.sleep(3)

@slate swan

try this kind of easy

[shrewd fjord]

;-;

idk database professionally either

i can just give idea how to implement it

[ember nest]

Alright no problem lemme see

[ember nest]

Sure

[shrewd fjord]

like?

[shrewd fjord]

u can create a table named channel there will be 2 columns 1 for guild id one for channel id

then insert channel id value with guild id

ye so?

u can replace ur code by mine

if u want global slash handler

......what's ur new code?

show me or 🔫

[ember nest]

After that if channel id in table and guild id :
Channel.send_message(")

Hmm

[shrewd fjord]

after that check in which guild the member joined and get the channel id from that table which matches guild id

no need to do

[ember nest]

Lemme try

[shrewd fjord]

full @bot.event replace by this

@slate swan it will handleeeeeee allll sort of error

[full marten]

what's the diference about discord.ui.Button and discord.ui.button?

[shrewd fjord]

2nd one is decorator

and 1st one is for getting button object

[full marten]

hm

thanks

[shrewd fjord]

;]

[slate swan]

how do i make so only administrators or specific roles can use the commands and members no?

[shrewd fjord]

@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)

!d discord.ext.commands.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_permissions

@discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(**perms)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the current channel permissions, not the guild wide permissions.

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under [`discord.Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions").

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

[slate swan]

but also for like specific commands

[shrewd fjord]

it's for specific commands only

put that beneath @bot.command()

[slate swan]

no but like the script u gave me looks like it enables and disables bot commands for specific roles and im trynna do it so members can use bot commands but not all of them on the bot

and so as staff

[shrewd fjord]

can u tell the role name

so that if the staff has that role

he can use it

[slate swan]

lets say member

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_role

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

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

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

If the message is invoked in a private message context then the check will return `False`.

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

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure")...

[shrewd fjord]

@commands.has_role("member")

who have member role, that member can use this command

[slate swan]

which command?

there are many...

[shrewd fjord]

just put this line on those command which command u want only "member"role to use

[slate swan]

ok and how do i do the opposite

[shrewd fjord]

?

[clever scaffold]

wth

[slate swan]

like to make them not be able to use the command

[clever scaffold]

ummm

can you give example?

[shrewd fjord]

check if use has a role named "member"
if true then return it

ez as that

[slate swan]

did not understand

[slate swan]

like lets say a member can use !ban and i dont want that to happen how do i prevent that?

[shrewd fjord]

check if member has ban_members

@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.check

@discord.ext.commands.check(predicate)```
A decorator that adds a check to the [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") or its subclasses. These checks could be accessed via [`Command.checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command.checks "discord.ext.commands.Command.checks").

These checks should be predicates that take in a single parameter taking a [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context"). If the check returns a `False`-like value then during invocation a [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure") exception is raised and sent to the [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") event.

If an exception should be thrown in the predicate then it should be a subclass of [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError"). Any exception not subclassed from it will be propagated while those subclassed will be sent to [`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").

[shrewd fjord]

according to ur problem

[naive briar]

You can check if the member has the role or not, if yes, just return false

There's example in that url

[shrewd fjord]

catgal don't talk or 🔫

[clever scaffold]

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
...

[shrewd fjord]

jk

[clever scaffold]

here is example

[shrewd fjord]

xd

[slate swan]

where do i check that

[shrewd fjord]

🫡

[shrewd fjord]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

where do i put this?

and to put instead of true to false?

[shrewd fjord]

OH MY GOD KILL MEEEEEEE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[clever scaffold]

nope

[shrewd fjord]

put it in ur commanddddddddd

[clever scaffold]

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def ban():
  ...

like that

[shrewd fjord]

make it to Trues so member can't use it

[shrewd fjord]

async def*

oh u edited, flash guy

[clever scaffold]

hehe

[shrewd fjord]

gimme ur power or my water gun here to get u 🔫

[shrewd fjord]

btw the binary code in ur about me tells "Hello World"?

[clever scaffold]

yes sir

[shrewd fjord]

cool

[clever scaffold]

thanks

[slate swan]

how do i do the same but for the unban command?

[clever scaffold]

yep

[slate swan]

no like how do i do it but for another command?

[shrewd fjord]

it's same for unban command too

🤷

[clever scaffold]

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def ban():
  ...

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def unban():
  ...

[slate swan]

oh

[shrewd fjord]

🫡

[slate swan]

did not work

[clever scaffold]

ummm

do you have that permission?

[slate swan]

wdym

[clever scaffold]

permission to ban members

@slate swan can you show your code?

[slate swan]

@clever scaffold members cannot unban but the second i put this code: @commands.has_role("owner")

[shrewd fjord]

i gave uup btw 💀

[slate swan]

all of the commands were open

if i would have used this command on staff staff would have access to use all of the commands

[shrewd fjord]

has_permissions(ban_members=True)

use it

[slate swan]

i put that

[shrewd fjord]

then what

is this

[slate swan]

meaning that when i put the role in the command @commands.has_role("")

that same role

can use all the commands of the bot

[clever scaffold]

ownerID = [...]

@client.command()
async def ban(ctx):
  if ctx.author.id in ownerID:
    ...

  return

I have new idea

[shrewd fjord]

or use

nvm

leave it

[shrewd fjord]

indent return

it's outside of if statement 💀

[clever scaffold]

it's like if else

[shrewd fjord]

ikr

if ..................:
return

[clever scaffold]

"return" is not needed

[shrewd fjord]

oh ye makes sense altho xd

[slate swan]

ima need to leave this codes out for now lemme check on yt or sum

[ember nest]

Can you check dms @shrewd fjord

[shrewd fjord]

1 sec

[shrewd fjord]

this is my new id

dm this id

[ember nest]

Alright

Done @shrewd fjord

[alpine cove]

use decorators

[honest shoal]

!d discord.Team Is recommended

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Team

class discord.Team```
Represents an application team for a bot provided by Discord.

[upbeat otter]

!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...

[slate swan]

how to make custom command that when u write it it pings staff roles and it also pings the one who sent the command

@shrewd fjord

[upbeat otter]

You can mention roles using <@&role_id> and the author using User.mention (ctx.author.mention)

[slate swan]

hmmmm ok

and how do i then write under those mentions a message?

@upbeat otter

[upbeat otter]

await ctx.send(f"{mentions whatever} you can write your message content")

[slate swan]

yeah but i want the message to be under

[rare echo]

i mean you can just {mentions} \n message

or send 2 messages

[slate swan]

how to make a command that gives a role? @upbeat otter

and how to make one that removes a role

[sick birch]

!d discord.Guild.create_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_role

await create_role(*, name=..., permissions=..., color=..., colour=..., hoist=..., display_icon=..., mentionable=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

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

All fields are optional.

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

Changed in version 1.6: Can now pass `int` to `colour` keyword-only parameter.

New in version 2.0: The `display_icon` keyword-only parameter was added...

[sick birch]

Epic fail

[slate swan]

not create tho

Member.add_roles

[rare echo]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

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

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

[slate swan]

how do i make it give 1 role?

and what is atomic

pass only a single role object.

[rare echo]

u only add 1 role

[slate swan]

what is the async btw?

@rare echo

[rare echo]

?

[slate swan]

I think (?) atomically means that they're added one-at-a-time as opposed to all at once. But I'm not certain.

[rare echo]

are you asking what async is or?

[slate swan]

async def mute()

whats gonna be inside the apprentasise

[rare echo]

inside the what

[slate swan]

()

[steep estuary]

solution for this error ?

[rare echo]

the arguments you need?

so probably the user and role?

[slate swan]

send pls

[slate swan]

Async means asynchronous. In the context of programming, it means your bot can carry out a longer task and still be able to do other things at the same time. Also, add_roles is a method of discord.Member so you need to put await member.add_roles(...).

where do i put that tho

im trynna put into the () in the desync line

[steep estuary]

hm

[slate swan]

what do i write inside of the mouth or sum

[rare echo]

bro the mouth?

[steep estuary]

can i continue a task after a break of 1 hour ?

[slate swan]

it looks like a mouth with eyes fr

well so what do i write inside

ima go eat write in my dms pls

[rare echo]

your arguments...

[slate swan]

How much Python do you know?

[rare echo]

[cold sonnet]

can a bot edit an ephemeral message

[naive briar]

!d discord.Interaction.edit_original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.edit\_original\_response

await edit_original_response(*, content=..., embeds=..., embed=..., attachments=..., view=..., allowed_mentions=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the original interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to [`InteractionMessage.edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionMessage.edit "discord.InteractionMessage.edit") in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

This method is also the only way to edit the original message if the message sent was ephemeral.

[rare echo]

just @ works, no?

[slate swan]

its correct, if you are in an embed, you are using a wrong area

[rare echo]

< @ 1039974694033563658 >

[slate swan]

what part of embed, only descriptions and field values work

I don't think you can mention users in the title and stuff of an embed

[rare echo]

field value though?

[slate swan]

yes.

[rare echo]

if you want to mention them yeah

yeah

[slate swan]

indeed it is

the ! is not needed there btw

[slate swan]

im learning in school currently

i know very little python and discord.py is complicated for me

[cold sonnet]

it raises an unknown webhook error

I've tried it already

[slate swan]

That's okay, but it may be best to focus on just Python for a bit longer then.

[cold sonnet]

Interaction.message.edit raises unkown Message

[slate swan]

Was the ephemeral message sent by your own bot or another bot?

[cold sonnet]

own bot

[slate swan]

Send the code then

[cold sonnet]

class LeaveButtonView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, msg):
        super().__init__()
        self.value = None
        self.msg = msg

    @discord.ui.button(label="Leave Giveaway", style=discord.ButtonStyle.danger)
    async def leave_buttony(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
        if self.msg.id in bot.messages:
            if interaction.user.id in bot.messages[self.msg.id]["embed"][3]:
                bot.messages[self.msg.id]["embed"][3].remove(interaction.user.id)
                await interaction.message.edit(content="response 2")
        else:
            await interaction.response.send_message("response 1", ephemeral=True)

sent here

await interaction.followup.send("You have already entered this giveaway!", view=LeaveButtonView(msg), ephemeral=True)

does defering it help

nah

[slate swan]

Because you haven't responded to the button click before trying interaction.message.edit. You should pass the original interaction into the view as something like self.interaction then edit that instead.

[cold sonnet]

let me try

it's getting uglier

oh I got it in another way

            view = LeaveButtonView(msg)
            last_msg = await interaction.followup.send("You have already entered this giveaway!", view=view, ephemeral=True)
            view.last_msg = last_msg
```editing self.last_msg

assuming self.last_msg is assigned before discord gets the message, the user gets the message from discord, the user clicks the button, which discord then tells the bot

[frail tapir]

how to make my bot list all its slash commands?

[fading marlin]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.get_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.get\_commands

get_commands(*, guild=None, type=None)```
Gets all application commands from the tree.

[drifting arrow]

How do I keep my bots slash commands to only being used in a discord server and not in dms?

[fading marlin]

!d discord.app_commands.guild_only

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.guild\_only

@discord.app_commands.guild_only(func=None)```
A decorator that indicates this command can only be used in a guild context.

This is **not** implemented as a [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check "discord.app_commands.check"), and is instead verified by Discord server side. Therefore, there is no error handler called when a command is used within a private message.

This decorator can be called with or without parentheses.

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

Examples...

[golden anvil]

How can you send a private message NOT DM

  async def test(self, ctx):
    await ctx.send("ok")

the bot is not responding, there are no errors, what could be the problem?

[fading marlin]

does it print?

shouldn't ctx.author.id be inside a tuple?

[proud apex]

No

[proud apex]

no

[ember nest]

Guys I need help I am planning to make a really good bot (already started on) and I am going to spend a lot of time working on it

But I want to know what I should really use discord.py or nextcord

Can someone suggest to me what to use?

[slate swan]

I use nextcord

I'm gonna have to recommend discord.py personally

But it's entirely your decision

[ember nest]

Can someone tell me what is the difference between both of them?

[slate swan]

discord.py provides you more control on application command
nextcord provides you easier way of making application commands

thats basically it, other than that there's a bit of change in cogs extension loading etc

[ember nest]

I don't mind easier or harder but I want it more professional and have the ability to do more features so which one is better for mr?

[slate swan]

you get same features in both, in contrast nextcord has more features.

[ember nest]

So if I got really professional at dpy and same as nextcord, if I am using nextcord it will give me more features to do?

[slate swan]

features like voice recieve and some plugins yeah

[proud apex]

help pls

[visual canyon]

what's the best way to save/load the text of a long-text modal field? edit: in a database nvm. you just use the .value of the textbox object which is a string that has the formatting.

[ember nest]

So I have level system but idk how would I set the xp because it's kinda confusing so for now I have it to level up

5 = 63 messages
10 = 500 messages
15 = 1687 messages
20 = 4000 messages
25 = 7812 messages
30 = 13500 messages
35 = 21437 messages
40 = 32000 messages

[ember nest]

Yall think this good ?

[slate swan]

I'd just store each user's XP in a database then add a certain amount to that XP when they send a message. Then come up with some formula to convert between XP and level.

[alpine cove]

mh idk but people tend to send a lot of messages

that would be a lot of queries

you shoulf do some optimizing

[silent ermine]

So this is going to sound weird but basically I need to delete some channels but I dont want to loose the data, so can I use a discord bot to transfer all the data from day one to another channel in a different server?

[slate swan]

True. How else could you go about it though? Just store stuff temporarily in the script and make a task loop to update the DB every so often?

[alpine cove]

that would be an option ig

[alpine cove]

you can dump all the channels

*messages

[silent ermine]

So like a for loop?

[alpine cove]

a while loop but yes

[silent ermine]

But how would I get every single message and would it include the images?

without errors bot dont work

[ember nest]

Is it easy to make a music bot on nextcord?

Cuz it's been a really long time since I started trying to make a music bot on discord.dpy and still can't

[eternal delta]

Someone can send me the command to install Discord library?

[sick birch]

We're not gonna help with music bots anymore as it usually violates the company's terms of service

Can you show us your error handler?

The error handler?

You're 100% sure?

What's it say in the console then?

In that case make sure the function itself is being called

[torn sail]

Well you aren’t sending a string

But it would cause an error because it would call format on a set so if there’s no error then make sure that the command itself is being called like robin said

Try adding a print statement at the top of the command and see if it prints

[sick birch]

yeah that's why i wanted you to be 100% sure there's no error handler

we don't do that here

they're not supposed to be doing that

if you want code to be written for you there are platforms like fiverr where you can pay people to do that

then listen to us and fix it for free ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[plain notch]

Hi, I was wondering if I can please get some help with this simple program game of rock paper scissor. Thank you

[sick birch]

Paste your code & traceback and we'll take a look!

[plain notch]

Thank you so much, and sorry how can I properly paste my code?

Okay, thank you

[slate swan]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

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

[plain notch]

'''

#'P' = Paper
#'S' = Scissors

user = input("Rock Paper or Scissors?: ").upper()

while user != 'Q':
    #if user input is not 
    if user not in rock_paper_scissors:
        return 'Invaild Input!'

    #opponent randomly selects a from list
    opponent = random.choice(rock_paper_scissors)

    #if the user and the opponent choose the same, then it is a tie.

sorry!

There we go, Thanks

So, I am trying to allow the player (user) continue playing unless 'Q' is inputted. However, this seems to not work

[sick birch]

Oh, doesn't look discord.py related.
Can you open a help post in #1035199133436354600 with the same code?

[plain notch]

Okay!

[slate swan]

Any who can help

[plain notch]

Would I put this line of code into start_game()?

[slate swan]

Its without errors but idk why it didnt work

[plain notch]

Okay, I will give this a try

[silent ermine]

how do i get a users name and avatar url from channel.history?

TypeError: BotBase.init() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents'

someone help ^^

[sick birch]

!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.

[slate swan]

2 many letters

ye

like this?

[slate swan]

You can get a list of messages in the channel's history with something like [message async for message in textchannel.history(...)]. This'll return a list of Message objects each of which have an author.

[silent ermine]

Thanks, got it.

[silent ermine]

Ran into another issue, how do i get images?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Message.attachments

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.attachments

A list of attachments given to a message. If Intents.message_content is not enabled this will always be an empty list unless the bot is mentioned or the message is a direct message.

[silent ermine]

Thats the thing, with channel.history it prints [<Attachment id=1053452869719822366 filename='.png' url='https://urlhere.com%27%3E]

[rare echo]

what are you trying to do with it?

you can probably just add .url

you are getting the attachment object

so you gotta specify what you want from it

[silent ermine]

so Im using webhooks to get images but it just sends that instead of an actual image embedded

[rare echo]

try .url

[silent ermine]

'list' object has no attribute 'url'

[rare echo]

show code

[silent ermine]

messages = await channel.history(limit=100000000000).flatten()
try:
  image = str(message.attachments.url)
  await webhook.send(image, username=message.author.nick, avatar_url=message.author.avatar)
except Exception as e:
  print(e)```

There morre but has webhook and channel id

[rare echo]

oh- pretty sure because you are getting a bunch of images not just 1

[silent ermine]

No it just has 1 image url

[torn sail]

Well attachments is a list so you can get the first element with attachments[0]

[silent ermine]

it also has %27%3E after .jpg or .png

[rare echo]

oh?, try and just [0] it

[silent ermine]

oops

[rare echo]

how did you add the [0]?

[silent ermine]

Forgot to delete .url hold on

[rare echo]

message.attachments[0]?

[silent ermine]

It works tysm

[silent ermine]

One more thing lol, is there a way to send the images to a specific channel? (sending webhook to specific channel in other words)

[slate swan]

get the channel and send the message

create a webhook

with the bot

webhooks are creating from channels

so whatever u send through a webhook will always be in that channel

[silent ermine]

How create?

actually yk screw it it doesnt matter

[slate swan]

docs

get the channel then create webhook with channel object

[rare echo]

any particular reason you are doing it through a webhook?

[silent ermine]

So basically my friends had a group chat for the club and the teacher is finally joining and some messages that are off topic cant be there, so I am using a bot to transfer it

               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: './transcripts/ticket-97.html'

cant close my tickets

[rare echo]

directory on new host is probably different

if you dont have console access you can probably run a python file to get the cwd

[crimson hazel]

i have full access but i cant find it...

i cant find the part to change the directory

[rare echo]

wdym? youll just have to navigate to /transcripts/ assuming the folder and that file exists / are created

[crimson hazel]

is created..

[crimson hazel]

When i create a Ticket its everything fine, but when i want to close =

[rare echo]

so then my next guess is its trying to open that html file it looks like, but cant find it

[crimson hazel]

thanks found the fix

[crimson hazel]

damn not fixxed. when i create a ticket it names: ticket-100 and i create in the folder ticket-100.html then it close

but i habe 5 different types of tickets and they get renamed randomly my firstnames

[rare echo]

the ticket closes? and im assuming you are just randomizing/counting for the ticket-(number)

[crimson hazel]

yes when i dont change the name it will be close. Example. You create a ticket. it will be named maybe ticket-120. My team must be rename it to duckv9

[rare echo]

why dont you just name it as the name of the user who made the ticket?

same with the file

[crimson hazel]

back then it worked but today i change it to another hoster

since then it dont worked

[rare echo]

the host shouldnt effect the code though

i could see some directories being changed at the least

[crimson hazel]

because when its be in editing it will be 🟡duck
When the edit is finished then it will be 🟢duck

 File "C:\Users\--\Desktop\Mirage DC Bot\ext\ticket_response.py", line 288, in close_ticket
    file = interactions.File(filename=f'./transcripts/{channel.name}.html')

[rare echo]

but you can change the contents of the file after its made without editing the file name, for example -
create channel with name ( i.e duckv9-ticket ) and a transcript file ( i.e duckv9-transcript(-datemaybe))
do whatever in ticket
when ticket is closed, transcript everything into the file and delete the channel or rename the channel to duckv9-ticket-closed

then you can close the file and upload it to the ticket (prior to closing it)

[crimson hazel]

thats the code

                log_channel = await interactions.get(self.client, interactions.Channel, object_id=1024695080080113764)
                embed = interactions.Embed(fields=fields, author=author, thumbnail=thumbnail, color=color)

                file = interactions.File(filename=f'./transcripts/{channel.name}.html')
                await member.send(embeds=embed, files=file)
                await log_channel.send(embeds=embed)
                await asyncio.sleep(10)
                await channel.delete()
                collection.delete_one({'_id' : f'{channel.id}'})
                with open('./utils/ticket_ids.json', 'r+') as f:

                    json.dump(data, f)
                    f.truncate()

[slate swan]

lost here

cant find the issue

[fading marlin]

parameters should go the other way around

interaction first, then button

[slate swan]

ok let me try it out

thanks it worked

[slate swan]

ok I want my first button to send a second button when clicked but I'm stuck

[torpid hare]

can someone help me whenever i run the command it gives the application did not respond https://tinyurl.com/2p2ygmnt

[fading marlin]

interaction.response returns InteractionResponse, you don't call that. You have to use one of the various response methods that InteractionResponse offers

[torpid hare]

it also keeps saying this 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction

[rare echo]

you can just set the view to whatever the button is?

[fading marlin]

can you send the entire code?

[rare echo]

is it synced?

[slate swan]

which one would allow me to use the second class I just showed?

[torpid hare]

What

[fading marlin]

either send_message or edit_message

[rare echo]

is your slash command synced

or set to a debug guild

[torpid hare]

I do not know what that means

[fading marlin]

it is synced, otherwise they wouldn't be able to use it

[rare echo]

slash commands take time to sync by default, so unless you sync it manually or give it a debug guild it might not work right away

[torpid hare]

It's been doing this for days

[rare echo]

see ive been told that, then ive also seen people able to run it without any output, then after manually syncing it would work so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fading marlin]

^

[torpid hare]

I'll send it in dms

[fading marlin]

why...

just remove any sensitive information

[torpid hare]

dont wanna clog up the channel

[rare echo]

!paste

[torpid hare]

oh

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/jimexujega

[fading marlin]

defer before you send an HTTP request

if you ever defer, it's probably always best to do it at the start of the callback

[torpid hare]

oh

i thought it was because of the images not loading fast enough in the embed

[fading marlin]

also don't use requests

you were good using aiohttp - there's no point in spontaneously switching to requests

[torpid hare]

i just used the one request out putting the image to a file because of this

testing purposes basically

[fading marlin]

is there any reason why you're purposefully sleeping for 5 seconds after each defer?

[torpid hare]

thats what everywhere online said to do

[rare echo]

[torpid hare]

internet is always right

[rare echo]

hahahaha

[fading marlin]

no - sleeping serves no use

[rare echo]

.bm

[lament depot]

Click the button to be sent your very own bookmark to [this message](#discord-bots message).

[rare echo]

fav quote

[torpid hare]

now sometimes when i do the command it doesnt stop thinking

[fading marlin]

because you're not sending a followup

[torpid hare]

i did though

https://tinyurl.com/2eko7lwx

[fading marlin]

check your if status == 'available_later'

[torpid hare]

it wouldnt be under that one though

the response would have been in taken

[fading marlin]

probably because you're using requests then?

[torpid hare]

i removed it

[fading marlin]

any errors?

[torpid hare]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/abacagacoj

no errors its just thinking forever

https://tinyurl.com/2edmxuep

[fading marlin]

hmmm, any error handlers that might be eating up yer errors?

[torpid hare]

one second

ok yea my log file is telling me something about the capes

ok so i called it again and it works perfectly the second time though

i didnt save it or anything

ok i put the capes one into its own seperate json file and that seemed to fix it

[shrewd fjord]

after defering a response, if u dont send further messages it will be thinking forever after 15 mins over

oh u fixed it xd

[torpid hare]

i see

[torpid hare]

yea thanks tho

[shrewd fjord]

nahhhhh, fixing something urself, is just great

[drifting arrow]

is there a decorator to limit a slash command to admins only?

[flat pier]

i think you want to use default_permissions
