[loud junco]

what does thing got to do with my case

[flat pier]

using .format() is bad in sql like that

[drifting arrow]

No it's not.

[loud junco]

what is .format()

!formatter

[unkempt canyon]

String Formatting Mini-Language
The String Formatting Language in Python is a powerful way to tailor the display of strings and other data structures. This string formatting mini language works for f-strings and .format().

Take a look at some of these examples!

>>> my_num = 2134234523
>>> print(f"{my_num:,}")
2,134,234,523

>>> my_smaller_num = -30.0532234
>>> print(f"{my_smaller_num:=09.2f}")
-00030.05

>>> my_str = "Center me!"
>>> print(f"{my_str:-^20}")
-----Center me!-----

>>> repr_str = "Spam \t Ham"
>>> print(f"{repr_str!r}")
'Spam \t Ham'

[flat pier]

it goes directly against sql sanitization of asyncpg (which this looks like)

[loud junco]

this doesnt work in sql forget it

just use placeholder it saves ur time, ur sanity and also ur life but not my spelling

[flat pier]

L that removed my image sad

[loud junco]

LOL who remove the embed

[flat pier]

i did on accident

[loud junco]

kekw

[flat pier]

btw you didn't pass self to your function here

[loud junco]

oops

hydrorico as shit as ever

[fickle sky]

can anyone say me if im doing something wrong
when i run the cmd it just says "bot is thinking"

[fickle sky]

using pycord*

[slate swan]

!sql-fstrings you shouldn't. that's what the python developers suggest and im quite sure they're more experienced with their own products

[unkempt canyon]

SQL & f-strings
Don't use f-strings (f"") or other forms of "string interpolation" (%, +, .format) to inject data into a SQL query. It is an endless source of bugs and syntax errors. Additionally, in user-facing applications, it presents a major security risk via SQL injection.

Your database library should support "query parameters". A query parameter is a placeholder that you put in the SQL query. When the query is executed, you provide data to the database library, and the library inserts the data into the query for you, safely.

For example, the sqlite3 package supports using ? as a placeholder:

query = "SELECT * FROM stocks WHERE symbol = ?;"
params = ("RHAT",)
db.execute(query, params)

Note: Different database libraries support different placeholder styles, e.g. %s and $1. Consult your library's documentation for details.

[slate swan]

does the embed get send in your channel?

[fickle sky]

nopr

bot dont even responds ;-;

[slate swan]

do you get any errors in your console?

[ember nest]

How can I make a json file as a database to make it save a channel id with the guild id of channel and set a name for the channel id?

[ember nest]

That's possible?

[naive briar]

Yes it is

But JSON isn't a database

[ember nest]

I used json as a database for my level system that's why

[naive briar]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_message - the method doesn't return the message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[naive briar]

As long as it's not too big, then probably

[ember nest]

Hmm

[slate swan]

how to disable a button if clicked?

[cold sonnet]

it's sql queries

you can't just use formatting

[cold sonnet]

[naive briar]

W

[cold sonnet]

#databases message

here look at this

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.ui.Button.disabled

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button.disabled

property disabled```
Whether the button is disabled or not.

[slate swan]

but where i must put it

in the callback ?

[naive briar]

Where else

[slate swan]

@naive briar like this ?

[cold sonnet]

what

oh

[slate swan]

or , inside the button definiton

i mean this

[naive briar]

Whatever

[cold sonnet]

that's not how you make buttons

[naive briar]

See what happens

[slate swan]

no one worked

[slate swan]

bro that's just a callback

[cold sonnet]

where do you think a callback is called

[slate swan]

that's my command full code

[cold sonnet]

yeah this seems right

[slate swan]

any help about disabling buttons ?

[cold sonnet]

you still have to edit the message with the view the buttons are in

[shrewd fjord]

ths

[slate swan]

but it shows an 'interaction failed' error

[naive briar]

Show the actual error from the terminal

[slate swan]

no error

[cold sonnet]

defer

[shrewd fjord]

^

[shrewd fjord]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

i didn't understand , sorry my english is bad

[cold sonnet]

add await interaction.response.defer()

at the start of the callbacks

[slate swan]

okay

done i'll try

[shrewd fjord]

@slate swan after that u cant do responses u have to do followups

[slate swan]

no error, but it isn't disabled

[naive briar]

Edit the message with the edited view the button is int

[slate swan]

the disabling is inside a callback , how can i edit the message's view ?

or , how can i definie a new view

[naive briar]

Edit using the callback's interaction

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

can i get a code ? 😂 i'm beginner sorry

[naive briar]

No

[slate swan]

bruh ok

[cold sonnet]

deleted the message with the code

to enstrengthen catgal's will

[slate swan]

can i delete a message which is sent by response ?

[shrewd apex]

yes

!d discord.Interaction.original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.original\_response

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

Fetches the original interaction response message associated with the interaction.

If the interaction response was a newly created message (i.e. through [`InteractionResponse.send_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.send_message "discord.InteractionResponse.send_message") or [`InteractionResponse.defer()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.defer "discord.InteractionResponse.defer"), where `thinking` is `True`) then this returns the message that was sent using that response. Otherwise, this returns the message that triggered the interaction (i.e. through a component).

Repeated calls to this will return a cached value.

[shrewd apex]

use this and delete

[slate swan]

ok

can you guys find the error please im not able to fix it ;-;

[leaden solar]

yo im trying to read the message history of a thread after detecting it getting deleted, but i get this error:

discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10003): Unknown Channel

@bot.event
async def on_thread_delete(thread):
    if thread.category_id == 983745432192688138:

        for message in messages:
            print(message)
        # messages is now a list of Message...

is it something wrong with my code?

because i just get errors from this code

[naive briar]

You can't get the history of a deleted channel

[leaden solar]

oh okay

but is there any way to detect on_message

or something

for threads

[naive briar]

Detect what

[leaden solar]

im trying to log all messages in a specific threads under a specific category

[naive briar]

Then check the channel ID from the message

!d discord.Message.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.channel

The TextChannel or Thread that the message was sent from. Could be a DMChannel or GroupChannel if it’s a private message.

[leaden solar]

alright

[slate swan]

Help!

[shrewd fjord]

hm

[slate swan]

How do I make my bot think?

[rare echo]

like defer?

or like sentience

[slate swan]

Like some bots have the thinking... thing on the slash command.

[rare echo]

defer

[slate swan]

While they are loading something long.

[rare echo]

yes its called defer

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.defer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.defer

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

Defers the interaction response.

This is typically used when the interaction is acknowledged and a secondary action will be done later.

This is only supported with the following interaction types...

[shrewd fjord]

thinking=True u have to do

[rare echo]

ty didnt know it off the top of my head

[slate swan]

Oh ok.

Let me try.

[shrewd fjord]

ig i made a song 💀

or poem or whatever

[rare echo]

channeled inner yoda

[shrewd fjord]

[slate swan]

I still can't figure it out.

[shrewd fjord]

await interaction.response.defer(thinking=True)

[slate swan]

Ooh.

TypeError: InteractionResponse.defer() got an unexpected keyword argument 'thinking'

@shrewd fjord

[shrewd fjord]

which library you are using?

[slate swan]

disnake

[shrewd fjord]

🙂

need to check docs

[polar dawn]

How do I make a specific hybrid commands that are only available for specific servers?
I used to do this:

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
  allowed_guild = [123, 321]
  if ctx.guild.id in allowed_guild:
      async with ctx.typing():
        await ctx.reply("Pass")
  else:
      return

but how do i do it with hybrid commands? maybe if the guild id is not in the list it would just not respond or just not appear in the slash command list for the guild

[slate swan]

Hi guys
I am writing a Python code in order to scramble the data but it returns a syntax error because of site name

This site is https://app.folk.app/shared/French-VC's-mD2puZZ9RyakVW7ATq6VaFaFme7Cjjf9

[shrewd fjord]

um this channel is for discord bots

#web-development ....

[slate swan]

Can someone suggest me a solution how to scramble data from this site

[drifting arrow]

Is it possible embed a youtube video inside of a discord embed?

So instead of that I want the entire video to be playable.

[polar dawn]

i think it should be in a description tho wait lemme try it out

[drifting arrow]

🤔

[polar dawn]

ah it doesnt work tho

[shrewd fjord]

no.

u cant have a embed in a embed

[polar dawn]

Yeah i tried inserting everywhere in the embed

[drifting arrow]

lol

[slate swan]

[shrewd fjord]

ye xd

[ivory vortex]

this is my code, i want to make the slash command paramater have a description on discord ```py
async def a(interaction: discord.Interaction, string: str):

[shrewd fjord]

@discord.app_commands.describe

[rare echo]

its possible, but not with just the raw yt link

[shrewd fjord]

ugh awkward

!d discord.app_commands.describe

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.describe

@discord.app_commands.describe(**parameters)```
Describes the given parameters by their name using the key of the keyword argument as the name.

Example:

```py
@app_commands.command(description='Bans a member')
@app_commands.describe(member='the member to ban')
async def ban(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member):
    await interaction.response.send_message(f'Banned {member}')
```  Alternatively, you can describe parameters using Google, Sphinx, or Numpy style docstrings...

[shrewd fjord]

oh makes sense

@ivory vortex

[naive briar]

Can you send them as message for once

[rare echo]

payloud?

[slate swan]

payload it is, but who cares about var names

get_channel(channelid), not get_channel(id=channelid)

[rare echo]

you dont need id= for bot.get_channel, just pass the int

[shrewd fjord]

same as channel

hmm

ohh u r using guiold

nvm

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

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

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

[slate swan]

/ means a positional arg

remove role_id=?

[rare meadow]

Hello everyone. I'm quite new. Can i ask question about using BeautifulSoup?

[slate swan]

Bs4 comes under website stuff, try asking in #web-development

[rare meadow]

Okay, thank you 🙂

[drifting arrow]

How do I output an apps_command error?

[naive briar]

Huh

[drifting arrow]

I'm using @app_commands.checks.has_permissions(administrator=True), but when a regular person without those permissions uses it, the error is sent to console and not to the user

[naive briar]

!d discord.app_commands.Command.error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Command.error

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

The local error handler is called whenever an exception is raised in the body of the command or during handling of the command. The error handler must take 2 parameters, the interaction and the error.

The error passed will be derived from [`AppCommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.AppCommandError "discord.app_commands.AppCommandError").

[slate swan]

Hey guys, i heard that discord-components is gonna get deleted, is that real?

[naive briar]

What is that

[slate swan]

A python library

For buttons and generally ui

[bright wedge]

Discord py have own buttons etc

update your version

[naive briar]

Idk about that, but discord.py have a good enough UI support

[bright wedge]

is a library that has been around since discord py v2

Before discord.py add buttons and menu's

[shrewd fjord]

cul

[bright wedge]

https://github.com/kiki7000/discord.py-components

[slate swan]

So youre telling me i could use discord.py for ui?

[naive briar]

Since discord.py 2

Months ago

[bright wedge]

Discord components are cool, but discord.py will support it on version 2.0. It is hard to wait, so we made a third-party library for using components such as buttons or selects!

Source: discord-components github.

[slate swan]

Yeah i didnt use discord.py for months

[bright wedge]

Welcome back then

[slate swan]

discord.py had buttons soon after when discord announced the feature, you just didnt know how to install it

[feral frost]

CODE:

class create_account(discord.ui.Modal, title="ACCOUNT SETUP!"):
    age = discord.ui.TextInput(label='Age:', style=discord.TextStyle.short, min_length=2, max_length=32, required=True)
    region = discord.ui.TextInput(label='Region:', style=discord.TextStyle.short, min_length=3, max_length=56, required=True)

    ready = Button(label="Account ready", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    remove = Button(label="Remove account", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)

    async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.edit_message(view=None, content=f"Succesfully created account!{self.age}{self.region}")

    view = View(timeout=None)
    view.add_item()

...
async def setup_callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):
      await interaction.response.send_modal(create_account())
...

QUESTION:
How can i make a modal but without the class ?

[naive briar]

Discord buttons were added a year ago!? 🥹

[naive briar]

Why are there buttons inside your modal subclass

[feral frost]

dont mind the buttons its just the "age" "region" and " on_submit thing"

[slate swan]

!d discord.ui.Modal

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Modal

class discord.ui.Modal(*, title=..., timeout=None, custom_id=...)```
Represents a UI modal.

This object must be inherited to create a modal popup window within discord.

New in version 2.0.

Examples...

[shrewd fjord]

keyboard goes brrrrrrrr

[slate swan]

modal = discord.ui.Modal(title="your title")
``` and then add placeholders using add_item

!d discord.ui.Modal.add_item

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Modal.add\_item

add_item(item)```
Adds an item to the view.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

[feral frost]

hm ok ill try thanks 🙂

[upbeat otter]

totally a nobody

[slate swan]

ikr

[upbeat otter]

good boy

[fading marlin]

your bot doesn't have permissions to have slash commands, probably because you didn't enable the application.commands scope in the dev portal

[feral frost]

CODE:

class create_account(discord.ui.Modal, title="ACCOUNT SETUP!"):
    age = discord.ui.TextInput(label='Age:', style=discord.TextStyle.short, min_length=2, max_length=32, required=True)
    region = discord.ui.TextInput(label='Region:', style=discord.TextStyle.short, min_length=3, max_length=56, required=True)

    ready = Button(label="Account ready", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    remove = Button(label="Remove account", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)

    async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.edit_message(view=None, content=f"Succesfully created account!{self.age}{self.region}")

    view = View(timeout=None)
    view.add_item()

...
async def setup_callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):
      await interaction.response.send_modal(create_account())
...```

**QUESTION:**
How can i make a modal but without the class ?

[fading marlin]

modals don't need views

[feral frost]

i tried a lit but nothing works

no no dont mind that

just the "age" "region" and on_submit

[fading marlin]

well, what you're doing is the proper way to create a modal...

[feral frost]

the view thing is just something that i added

[feral frost]

ok but i dont want it inside the class cuz idk how i can do other things with it

[fading marlin]

wdym?

[feral frost]

so the Modal thing but inside the command and not the class

[proud apex]

help pls

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands

[ember nest]

Well I have a question

I used to be good on JavaScript and now I started learning Python too and even learned how to make discord bot on python

But I have a question would it be better to make a bot on JavaScript?

Because mostly when I search on YouTube for features I want to add to my bot mostly I see discord.js videos

[slate swan]

i see no reason to use javascript unless you're significantly better at javascript than python

[naive briar]

Depends on what you're comfortable with

[ember nest]

I am comfortable with both of them actually

[feral frost]

guys ? please just answer this very simple question

[ember nest]

I am actually comfortable with both but I want to know which would be better to use @slate swan @naive briar

[feral frost]

how can i make a modal ( the thing that can be used to make a survey or smth ) but WITHOUT class ????

[fading marlin]

why... no, it's ok as it is. Any other way isn't really pythonic to say the least

[feral frost]

bro i need it WITHOUT class to do other things with it that DOES NOT work with the class

[slate swan]

What are you trying to do?

[feral frost]

k so

[slate swan]

unbiased opinion, discord.py
reasons:

• simple application commands structure and prefix command helpers
• Views support!!!! javascript doesn't have anything like that
• Utility libraries like jishaku, discord.js doesn't has a proper one like that

[naive briar]

Cool

[ember nest]

So basically discord.py can do anything which discord.js can do but even more?

[slate swan]

thats one way to say it yeah

Only thing discord.py can't do is voice recieve

[ember nest]

Because like when I searched for a minigames bots etc with python couldn't find any

[high sun]

How can I get/fetch a guild in a cog with the Bot? It always returns None

async def setup(bot):
    server = bot.get_guild(int(guildID))
    print(server)
    await bot.add_cog(RaffleMonitor(bot))

[ember nest]

Mostly was js

[slate swan]

ironically there's a tictactoe bot in discord.py's example folder

[naive briar]

You need to wait until the bot is ready to use get methods

[ember nest]

But like some other really good games I mean

[feral frost]

dont mind the things i scratched so this makes a modal wow very nice but now when i want to get the "age" thing in the command where the modal gets printed it wont let me get the "age" is there a way to get it or ?

[fading marlin]

cogs are loaded before populating cache

[ember nest]

Something like Akinator etc

[high sun]

fetch_guild gives me some weird error.
attributeError: '_MissingSentinel' object has no attribute 'is_set'

[naive briar]

Just self.age

[slate swan]

self.age

[fading marlin]

cogs are also loaded before connection to the gateway

[feral frost]

no guys you dont understand

[slate swan]

me and some friends were working on a bot and added akinator as a feature in it, in python

[ember nest]

Oh really

[high sun]

So I need to use .wait_until_ready(), correct?

[slate swan]

there's a cool python Library for that as well

[feral frost]

the COMMAND thing not the CLASS like this

[fading marlin]

yeah, but probably not in setup

[feral frost]

this is the COMMAND

[ember nest]

Well can we talk in dms since you seem good in discord.py

[high sun]

In the init ?

[feral frost]

this the CLASS

[slate swan]

its not about the language maybe people just didn't care about making those with python

[ember nest]

Because I am working on a bot too actually

[slate swan]

i haven't touched discord.py in 1.5yrs lol but yea sure

[naive briar]

What are you trying to do

[fading marlin]

probably in cog_load, so that you can call wait_until_ready

[ember nest]

How r you working on that then

[feral frost]

bro you serious i am trying to make a MODAL but NOT in the CLASS but in the COMMAND

[naive briar]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/modals/basic.py#L32-L58

Look at the example

[high sun]

I use load_extension, makes that any difference?

[slate swan]

im not, lol

if you're talking about wyvern its totally different from dpy

its just written in python

[ember nest]

Oh you are using wyvern to make your discord bot?

[fading marlin]

nope, cog_load is a method that you override in your cog

[slate swan]

i might do that in future but currently im just making it to learn about discord api

[high sun]

Ok, thanks... I'll take a look further in the docs for it :)

[ember nest]

I see

But what is the best to use though discord.py or nextcord etc

[naive briar]

Wait until they say hikari

[feral frost]

do you understand what i mean or do you want me to try to be more clear ?

[slate swan]

discord.py has most support and nice codebase
disnake is nice too
hikari is the best choice if you don't wanna stay mainstream

my preference order:
hikari, disnake, dpy, nextcord, pycord, hata, pincer, naff, other shitty forks

[naive briar]

So do it 🤷

[slate swan]

lmao

[ember nest]

What is hikari and disnake never heard about them lmao

[feral frost]

like do you understand it ?

[slate swan]

hikari is a discord api Library written from scratch with a very low api

[naive briar]

What are you trying to do is my question

[slate swan]

it will seem like djs at some point due to its low level implementations

[feral frost]

ok so a modal you know what that is right ?

[slate swan]

disnake is a maintained discord.py fork

[naive briar]

I used to play around with it, so probably

[ember nest]

But if I want to make a really professional bot with all features like games / moderation / design / music / level, credit system etc what would you suggest to use ? @slate swan

[slate swan]

discord.py

[feral frost]

ok well you know it is usually in a class

[ember nest]

Alright good I am already using that

I already made 350+ lines for my bot till now

Level system / warn system / welcome message (on image) / ban/kick/mute / and some other commands

That's what I have for now

[slate swan]

my clients.py is longer 😎

[ember nest]

I have poll system too

[naive briar]

And?

[ember nest]

Planning to add ticket/giveaway and some other

But really ticket and giveaway seems hard lol

[feral frost]

ok so i want to make it WITHOUT the class like not inside of a class but immediately inserted inside the @bot.command thing

[high sun]

hmm, im getting an error saying Client has not been properly initialised. Please use the login method or async context manager. The docs don't give me a clear instruction about what to do now. How can I fix this

[ember nest]

I've been searching much and I see people do it at 1 hour long video etc

For ticket

Or 3 parts video

Feels hard to learn

[slate swan]

It depends on how well you want it to function really.

[naive briar]

Like

modal = ui.Modal()
modal.add_item(ui.TextInput(...))

await interaction.response.send_modal(modal)

?

[ember nest]

Giveaway or ticket?

[naive briar]

This is just like subclassing but less readable

[ember nest]

I want ticket with buttons for open / close ticket and close have reason as dm etc

[feral frost]

YES FINALLY THANKU VERY MUCH

[ember nest]

Can you help me to do mine as well?

It's private but I will make it public

So I want to make it as a public bot ticket system

Yes

Oh shoot

Give me the file and I will tell you if the end result is good 😊

Nah jk I want to learn

So you learned from a video or document?

Hmmm

[slate swan]

I wouldn't rely on YouTube videos for bot tutorials to be honest

[ember nest]

Yeah I see

[ember nest]

Why

I mostly made everything from learning by YouTube

Because I can't find any good documents that are easy to learn from

[slate swan]

Most videos are out-dated and/or skip over important details in my opinion

[ember nest]

What's fun about this is that you are literally learning nothing xD

[ember nest]

Yeah they mostly out dated

So you suggest me to use docs?

[slate swan]

thats what a normal user would do

[ember nest]

So there are only 1 popular docs or much?

I use discord.py

[slate swan]

usually I check docs > search StackOverflow > ask/search on Discord in that order if there's something I don't know

[fading marlin]

!d discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord

In order to work with the library and the Discord API in general, we must first create a Discord Bot account.

Creating a Bot account is a pretty straightforward process.

Similar names: disnake.discord, nextcord.discord

[ember nest]

What is StackOverFlow

[naive briar]

Stackoverflow

[slate swan]

this takes to disnake doxs lmfao, oh they fixed it

[ember nest]

Alright

But how do I use docs though

Like for the ticket system

[slate swan]

ill be honest ticket systems are wack now

just use private Threads

that does all that a ticket system would do

[fading marlin]

forum channels

[slate swan]

yeah modmail is a different case

[slate swan]

Split the problem into smaller steps. Say you want to have a button that opens a new ticket, start by asking how do you create a button? Then think about how you can create your text channel/thread/whatever type of ticket system you want. Etc

[ember nest]

Hmm

I don't know that views thing actually

Well I know a bit actually

Like how to make a button and after clicking it sends a message

That's what I know how to do

[feral frost]

my code

[ember nest]

But idk how to make it create new channel etc

[feral frost]

error

pls help 🙂

[naive briar]

!d discord.TextInput.value

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextInput.value

The default value of the text input.

[ember nest]

Yes

[naive briar]

You need to get the value from it

[feral frost]

how

[ember nest]

Uh it's alright

Actually I am kinda busy now maybe later

I'll also try to know more about docs and StackOverFlow

[naive briar]

!d discord.TextInput.value

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextInput.value

The default value of the text input.

[naive briar]

.value

[feral frost]

where

[naive briar]

FROM the textinput

age.value

[fading marlin]

Does your bot have the application.commands scope enabled?

[feral frost]

ah ok ok i did it and it works but a big but in the database it now just smacks an empty thing instead of the values you gave in the MODAL

[high sun]

When I try to use:

await self.bot.wait_until_ready()

it gives me the following error: RuntimeError: Client has not been properly initialised. Please use the login method or asynchronous context manager before calling this method

But I'm kinda stuck about what to do cause? Either way I'm using bot.login wrong or im stupid

probably both

[naive briar]

Why are you using the login method anyway

[feral frost]

i think it has something to do with the on_submit thing

[high sun]

Because the error says so

[feral frost]

do you know how i can input the on_submit ?

[naive briar]

You didn't give it a callback

[feral frost]

it needs a callback ?

[naive briar]

Also you should subclass the modal

[naive briar]

Yes, so it can respond to the interaction

[feral frost]

wait wait to much, what do i do ?

[feral frost]

how

[high sun]

What else should I do than?

[slate swan]

@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member=None, unit = None, reason=None):
    if member == None or member == ctx.message.author:
        await ctx.channel.send("You cannot mute yourself")
        return
    if reason == None:
        reason = "Not specified!"
    guild = ctx.guild
    mutedRole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Muted")  
    embed = discord.Embed(description=f"**Muted** {member.mention}\n👋 ・User {member.mention} is muted!\n⛏ ・Reason of mute is {reason}\n:boom: ・Time of mute is {unit} seconds\n🔧 ・Muted by {ctx.author.mention}")
    embed.set_footer(text="© 2022 Pirates Developments.  All rights reserved") 
    await member.add_roles(mutedRole, reason=reason)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)
    if unit == None:
        unit = "3600"
    await asyncio.sleep(unit)
    await member.remove_roles(mutedRole)```

any who can help me idk why my mute command dont work

[fading marlin]

asyncio.sleep should be an integer/float, not a string

you're welcome

[high sun]

i'm still stuck at the cogs problem

could you help me further, Lee?

[slate swan]

?

[fading marlin]

what exactly do you need help with?

[fading marlin]

unit is a string, you should be passing an int or float

[high sun]

I'm trying to either get or fetch a channel in a cog, now I'm using self.bot.wait_until_ready() on the @tasks.before_loop but it gives me this RuntimeError: Client has not been properly initialised. Please use the login method or asynchronous context manager before calling this method

[fading marlin]

!paste send you full code 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:
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]

start the task after the bot is running @high sun

[high sun]

I'm trying with the before_loop

[slate swan]

yep i try with timemute and dont work

[fading marlin]

wot?

[high sun]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/vedazofave, @fading marlin

[slate swan]

@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member=None, testing=None, reason=None):
    if member == None or member == ctx.message.author:
        await ctx.channel.send("You cannot mute yourself")
        return
    if reason == None:
        reason = "Not specified!"
    if testing == None:
        testing = 3600
    guild = ctx.guild
    mutedRole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Muted")  
    embed = discord.Embed(description=f"**Muted** {member.mention}\n👋 ・User {member.mention} is muted!\n⛏ ・Reason of mute is {reason}\n:boom: ・Time of mute is {testing} seconds\n🔧 ・Muted by {ctx.author.mention}")

    await member.add_roles(mutedRole, reason=reason)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)
    await asyncio.sleep(testing)
    await member.remove_roles(mutedRole, reason=reason)```

i tried this but dont work

[fading marlin]

you have to type hint testing with int too, otherwise its still a string

[fading marlin]

how are you starting your bot?

[high sun]

async def on_ready():
    await bot.load_extension(name='cogs.repeater')
    print("Bot is online!")

client.run(os.getenv("BOT_TOKEN"))

thats in main.py

[fading marlin]

use setup_hook instead

[high sun]

instead of?

[fading marlin]

on_ready

[high sun]

with a wait_until_ready in the setup_hook?

cause i'm using a get_channel inside the on_ready aswell

[feral frost]

how do i do the interaction ? i cant figure it out

[fading marlin]

no, just replace the name of the function

[high sun]

that gives me AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'history' cause i'm trying to get the last message in a specific channel

in the on_ready

[feral frost]

@naive briar i think i need to do like the submit button in the modal i nee that to do something else but idk how

[fading marlin]

do you still have the wait_until_ready on your before loop hook?

[high sun]

correct

[fading marlin]

and you're loading your extensions in setup_hook?

[high sun]

correct

[feral frost]

anyone knows how the on_submit button works in a modal ?

[fading marlin]

what happens if you place the wait_until_ready inside the actual task instead?

[feral frost]

cuz this doesnt work

[fading marlin]

it's missing an interaction parameter

[feral frost]

oo ok

[high sun]

still gives me this:
RuntimeError: Client has not been properly initialised. Please use the login method or asynchronous context manager before calling this method

[feral frost]

still pretty dark

[fading marlin]

you have to override Modal's on_submit with that

[feral frost]

how ?

[fading marlin]

class A:
    def method(self):
        print("A")

def other_method():
    print("B")

>>> a = A()
>>> a.method()
A
>>> a.method = other_method
>>> a.method()
B

that's what you have to do

[feral frost]

is this for me ?

[fading marlin]

yes

[feral frost]

ok

is it in the terminal

[high sun]

do i need to use bot.login, Lee?

[fading marlin]

no, bot.run should be fine. It calls login anyway

[high sun]

th, it's so weird

[fading marlin]

it's an example of how method overriding works

[feral frost]

ah ok

[high sun]

without the wait_until_ready it gives just a NoneType

[feral frost]

and how do i use it with the on_submit ?

what this is it ?

[fading marlin]

well yeah because you're trying to find something that's not in the cache

[high sun]

so you want me to use fetch_channel?

cause thats an API call

[fading marlin]

A is the modal, method is on_submit, other_method is your on_submit

[feral frost]

aah ok

[fading marlin]

no, that will error because you're not connected to the gateway. You should be using get and wait_until_ready

[high sun]

yeah that gives me AttributeError: 'coroutine' object has no attribute 'fetch_channel'\

[slate swan]

how can i get a role by id using utils?

[fading marlin]

!d discord.Guild.get_role - you don't need to use utils

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

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

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

[slate swan]

thx

[feral frost]

so something like this

[fading marlin]

kinda, you don't have to call your modal a, nor call on_submit

[feral frost]

ah ok

[fading marlin]

you're calling 2 coroutines and only awaiting once

[high sun]

ah i fixed that and that gives me AttributeError: '_MissingSentinel' object has no attribute 'is_set'

[fading marlin]

because you're not connected

[high sun]

i know

it just won't work with get and wait_until_ready

[feral frost]

so like this ?

[eternal delta]

Whats async before def?

[quick gust]

asynchronous function

[fading marlin]

no, you don't override Modal's on_submit, you override the instance's on_submit. You shouldn't call on_submit either

[fading marlin]

could you send your updated code? with wait_until_ready and get

[eternal delta]

I never understood that...

[feral frost]

huh ?

[quick gust]

u can google a video to learn async python

[fading marlin]

async marks a function as being a coroutine. Coroutines have to be awaited to get their value, otherwise you'll either get an error or an awaitable

[eternal delta]

Can u give me an example, maybe?

[fading marlin]

you previously had an instance of Modal called a, a's on_submit should've been overridden, not Modal (fwiw it's a lot simpler if you just subclass)

[feral frost]

ok so what do i change with what ? in this

[high sun]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ocujovehak
Above === is my main, other is my cog

but with wait_until_ready it doesnt even print Bot is online!

[fading marlin]

async def foo(): print("'a'")
def bar(): print("'b'")

>>> foo()  # coroutine, is also an awaitable
<coroutine object foo at 0x0>
>>> x = foo()
>>> await x
'a'
>>> await foo()
'a'
>>> bar()
'b'
>>> x = bar  # basically the same as doing 'foo()'
>>> x()  # basically the same as doing 'await x' where x is an awaitable/coroutine
'b'

this is pretty much the basics of asyncio, I'd suggest reading up on it

[fading marlin]

don't call on_submit

[feral frost]

where ? everywhere

[fading marlin]

the both times that you're doing it

[feral frost]

the a.on

[fading marlin]

don't wait_until_ready in setup_hook, nor get_channel. Move the wait_until_ready inside a task before hook

[fading marlin]

remove a.on_ready(), yeah

[feral frost]

ok

[feral frost]

ValueError: Modal must have a title```

[fading marlin]

send your entire code please

[fading marlin]

you're sending the modal before adding a callback

[feral frost]

hm

where ?

[fading marlin]

here you sent the modal

await interaction.response.send_modal(create_account)

and 11 lines below you're adding a callback to a completely different modal

[feral frost]

ah i have to put on_submit above it

[feral frost]

?

[fading marlin]

sure

[feral frost]

or what should i do ?

[quartz valley]

Hi

[fading marlin]

try what you said, if it doesn't work, send the new code and lmk

[feral frost]

okidoki

[high sun]

RuntimeError: Client has not been properly initialised. Please use the login method or asynchronous context manager before calling this method

[ivory vortex]

Is there a way to make the inputs only have 2 characters

[feral frost]

k so here is the code and the error error ValueError: Modal must have a title but now the modal does not get sent which is a good thing i think

[high sun]

Wdym with this Move the wait_until_ready inside a task before hook

[fading marlin]

before you use get_channel, call wait_until_ready

[high sun]

ye, I have that rn

[fading marlin]

you're almost there. Instead of overriding a's on_submit, override create_account's on_submit, and delete the modal that points to a

Missing Permissions
your bot doesn't have the permissions to do what you want it to do

[fading marlin]

ugh idk anymore

[high sun]

If I add await client.login, it says this:

client_session: <aiohttp.client.ClientSession object at 0x000001EE6163C3A0>```

[fading marlin]

example https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/background_task_asyncio.py and docs https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html say that this should kinda work, unless we're missing something pretty obvious

[fading marlin]

you don't have to call login, it gets called automatically with bot.run

[fading marlin]

^

[feral frost]

YESS it works but the modal doesnt close but it works

[high sun]

ok, thanks Lee. Appreciate ur time

[fading marlin]

you're very welcome

[feral frost]

my new code

[ivory vortex]

Is it possible to make a slash command parameter have a maximum character length

[high sun]

you can check in the function of the command

[fading marlin]

you still have to respond to the interaction

[fading marlin]

!d discord.app_commands.Range

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Range

class discord.app_commands.Range```
A type annotation that can be applied to a parameter to require a numeric or string type to fit within the range provided.

During type checking time this is equivalent to [`typing.Annotated`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Annotated "(in Python v3.11)") so type checkers understand the intent of the code.

Some example ranges...

[feral frost]

where ?

[fading marlin]

in your callback (on_submit)

[feral frost]

what do i have to put there ?

[fading marlin]

await interaction.response.something

!d discord.InteractionResponse

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse

class discord.InteractionResponse```
Represents a Discord interaction response.

This type can be accessed through [`Interaction.response`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction.response "discord.Interaction.response").

New in version 2.0.

[feral frost]

ah ok

after the send_modal ?

[fading marlin]

no, inside your on_submit

that's your callback

[feral frost]

aah

ok ok

YESS IT WORKS thanku very much lee

[fading marlin]

you're very welcome

[feral frost]

🙂

[slate swan]

hey guys, can someone please give me a good website that will teach me how to do ui multiple choice using only discord.py?

[alpine cove]

a website?

Just watch one of those bad yt tutorials lol

Or read the docs like a masterdev

[slate swan]

cant find one tho

[alpine cove]

Why dont you start out by looking at the github examples

try to understand them

then modify them

at least that worked for me

[slate swan]

i tried to, but i only saw people that use pycord

i have to work with only discord.py

[alpine cove]

you dont have to

you want to

[fading marlin]

!d discord.ui.Modal and https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/dropdown.py

[alpine cove]

but pycord sucks anyways

😎 hehe

[slate swan]

thx

[versed root]

"no module named discord" how do i solve this

?

[fading marlin]

install dpy

[eternal delta]

Hey! i have a question, whats an intent?

[eternal delta]

pip install discord.py

on cmd

[indigo valley]

hi i need help

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @indigo valley!

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

[fading marlin]

they're "settings" (if you will), that tell Discord what type of data it should allow your bot to see

[eternal delta]

Okay, is it relevant for me?

Like, i need to know how to use it or its smth normal

[fading marlin]

generally speaking no, it's just something that gets sent whenever your bot connects to the gateway

[eternal delta]

Okay!

Thanks!

[fading marlin]

don't use bot and client either, stick to one

What should be next for me?

the tutorial i was following was outdated

[alpine cove]

use commands.Bot

[eternal delta]

I think i should create smth like a class before...

Idk what to do lol

[high sun]

how can i add emojis in the create_text_channel function?

either unicode, shortname and copy-pasting the emojis dont work

[eternal delta]

Nothing, just realized i needed the =True

[fading marlin]

unicode should've worked

[high sun]

i'll try again

How to make slash command in disocrd.py in cogs pls help

[cloud dawn]

You make groups not cogs

Atleast that's how I do it.

[rare echo]

if this is pycord its @discord.slash_command

[slate swan]

how to make this in discord.py

[rare echo]

whats the full error

[slate swan]

i dont know how to write slash, this is error

[fading marlin]

the class should subclass commands.Cog

[eternal delta]

ye so?

[cloud dawn]

Well you aren't

[eternal delta]

thats the thing idk how to do

i still need some py classes i think ;(

[fading marlin]

class A: ...
class B(A): ...

B subclasses A

[cloud dawn]

class Ping(Cog)

[eternal delta]

oh

So it would be smth like:
class commands.cog:
class ping(commands.cog):

??

[fading marlin]

no...

commands.Cog is already defined

[rare echo]

he was just giving example

[eternal delta]

ye so

[rare echo]

so just second one but .Cog

[fading marlin]

you just have to subclass it

[eternal delta]

HOW

[rare echo]

do the second one

but do .Cog not .cog

[cloud dawn]

class Ping(Cog):

[eternal delta]

Now?

[fading marlin]

correct

[eternal delta]

love u brothers

[fading marlin]

your setup isn't right though

[cloud dawn]

bot.add_cog is a bit wrong no?

[rare echo]

remove commands.cog from the add_cog

[eternal delta]

oh ye

forgot about it

Its normal that debugging takes more than 10 seconds?

[fading marlin]

are you using a debugger other than print()?

[cloud dawn]

Debugging takes me hours 😢

[eternal delta]

eee

What do you refer?

this my code:

[cloud dawn]

You are using asyncio.run and calling an async function but you don't run it in a context manager so this isn't utilized very good.

[fading marlin]

lmao the other day I was messing around with pagination, strings of 2k characters, and an echo command and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why I was getting a repeated value when in fact it what just the output + input 😭
I spent at least 2 days scratching my head

[pliant gulch]

Had something similar happen to me, apparently it took me 3 years to stumble across default mutables pit-fall

!e ```py
def foo(x, y: list[int] = []) -> None:
y.append(x)
print(y)

foo(1)
foo(10)
foo(12)

[unkempt canyon]

@pliant gulch :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | [1]
002 | [1, 10]
003 | [1, 10, 12]

[cloud dawn]

Classic one

[pliant gulch]

Yea stuck on that one forever

Until toxickidz told me about it

Very early on during my concurrency journey race conditions was also another one

But I figured out those easily after a few tries

[fading marlin]

guess I got lucky, my linter warned me about that before I got used to it 😬

[pliant gulch]

Which linter?

[fading marlin]

the worst of them all: whatever PyCharm uses

[pliant gulch]

I cannot LSP install that to nvim I think

😔 , I got nvim on pyright and pyright alone

Typehinting is king

[fading marlin]

strict type hinting

[slate swan]

ftp = FTP()
ftp.connect(HOST, PORT)
ftp.login()
ftp.cwd('user/home/')

with open(save_file, 'wb') as f:
  ftp.retrbinary('RETR ' + save_file, f.write)
ftp.quit()

I want to change the location of where the file is downloaded. Does any1 know how I can change the path. I was told to just open the py file where I want it to be saved but this will be a command and I want to change the download location path with each download depending on who its for

[sick birch]

Hello, this isn't discord bots related.
Perhaps you can open up a post in #1035199133436354600 ?

[eternal delta]

@fading marlin, sorry for ping, u there?

[fading marlin]

hey

[eternal delta]

I need some help :(

[fading marlin]

shoot away

[eternal delta]

Look, i got a main.py and another file with a cog but its not ok...

There's no error, just not working.

[fading marlin]

you should use bot.load_extension and a setup function instead of importing it

[eternal delta]

okay, lemme see

[slate swan]

pretty sure you HAVE to use setup function inside of the cog lol otherwise it will not work

[fading marlin]

not really

you need the setup for load_extension to work

[eternal delta]

async def setup_hook(self):
await self.load_extension("ping_cmd")

got this on main.py

and this on the cog one.
async def setup(bot):
await bot.add_cog(Ping(bot=bot))

[fading marlin]

you should pass the name of the module to load_extension

[eternal delta]

The file name?

Or the Class name?

[fading marlin]

the filename (without the file extension)

[eternal delta]

thats the name

[slate swan]

its not async

sync

[fading marlin]

setup is async...

[slate swan]

no its not.

[eternal delta]

setup is always async because of the await thing

no async no functioning await

[fading marlin]

it wasn't pre 2.0, now it is. Plus add_cog is a coroutine, how do you expect it to be called?

[eternal delta]

So what's the error on my code

[fading marlin]

there are no errors

you've got a warning telling you that you don't have message content intents enabled

[eternal delta]

in the devs panel?

[fading marlin]

idk, at least in the code you don't

[eternal delta]

oh, ur talking of the intents = discord.Intents.default()??

[fading marlin]

yup

default doesn't include message content

[eternal delta]

Thanks!

[fading marlin]

you're welcome

[eternal delta]

Ok, i got at least no warning but now this is showing up: discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "ping" is not found

[fading marlin]

can you show your updated code?

[eternal delta]

ofcourse

[rare echo]

bot=bot? not saying thats it but ive never seen someone do that

[eternal delta]

i actually dont know what that does

[rare echo]

you also have

[eternal delta]

i understand the class needs the bot thing to work

[eternal delta]

Thats previous

look at the ps new session

[rare echo]

gotcha

[fading marlin]

why are you importing the ping on your main file? also rename your cog, you might be having some scoping issues

[fading marlin]

bot is a positional or keyword argument, you're just using it as a keyword argument. There's really no difference in using either in this case

[eternal delta]

isnt it necessary?

[fading marlin]

what is supposedly necessary?

[rare echo]

just "bot" is necessary, you are just defining bot as "bot"

[eternal delta]

well actually the import isnt necessary

just knew it

[eternal delta]

Nah, i just thought that would be necessary for the status thing

[rare echo]

i mean kinda right, but you use it and define it in your init

[eternal delta]

Btw, still having the same problem: discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "ping" is not found

[fading marlin]

send new code!

[fading marlin]

rename you cog class (probably use proper class naming convention), see if that fixes it

[eternal delta]

Okay...

Same error, code:

[fading marlin]

oh

I'm actually blind

setup_hook isn't decorated as an event, nor should you pass self as its parameters. You're not subclassing

[eternal delta]

AAAA

im gonna kill my self

[sick birch]

Please don't joke about that here

[shrewd fjord]

Yes max_value

A factory method that returns a [`Colour`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Colour "discord.Colour") with a random hue.

Note

The random algorithm works by choosing a colour with a random hue but with maxed out saturation and value.

New in version 1.6.

[polar dawn]

How do I make a specific hybrid commands that are only available for specific servers?
I used to do this with bot.command():

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
  allowed_guild = [123, 321]
  if ctx.guild.id in allowed_guild:
      async with ctx.typing():
        await ctx.reply("Pass")
  else:
      return

but how do i do it with hybrid commands? maybe if the guild id is not in the list it would just not respond or just not appear in the slash command list for the guild. or is this not even possible

[shrewd fjord]

edit_message()

!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.

[shrewd fjord]

hmmmmmmm

what's the output

[drifting arrow]

with these, do they have to be in a specific order or does it not matter?

@app_commands.checks.has_permissions(administrator=True)
@app_commands.guild_only()

Or can I only use 1?

[shrewd fjord]

with this the appcommands only can be invoke in guild

[drifting arrow]

I know. I was just making sure that I could use both.

and there wasn't an order it needed to be in

[shrewd fjord]

ye u can

np

[drifting arrow]

and just a quick reminder, to @ someone using an id its: <@id>?

[rare echo]

yes

[drifting arrow]

Ty ty

[shrewd fjord]

ye

and for channels <#channel_id>

xd

[drifting arrow]

awesome

Saves me from having to fetch the individual users

[shrewd fjord]

and for slash command </:name:id>

[drifting arrow]

wot

how does that work?

[shrewd fjord]

y can mention slash commands

[drifting arrow]

does it run the command or just post it in chat?

[shrewd fjord]

post it in ur chat and u can click send to invoke it

[drifting arrow]

😱

starts updating code

[rare echo]

lmao

[drifting arrow]

Atm I got a bunch of "Did you mean to use /command?"

I can replace /command (text form) with a link to the command >:D

[shrewd fjord]

yes

ez

[drifting arrow]

How do I get the command ID? 🤔

[rare echo]

before you hit send you can right click the actual little popup above the text box

[drifting arrow]

But I need to get it through my code

[rare echo]

yeah then just copy it and paste it

[drifting arrow]

Because I intend on selling this bot I am making lol

[rare echo]

oh i see what you mean, im not sure

[drifting arrow]

oh well

it's not that important I guess

[shrewd fjord]

yes u can get

</name:id> btw i made a mistake

xd

[drifting arrow]

My favorite part about making a new bot is when you finally make it, 1500 lines later, "Can you add this?"

like mother fucker -.-

[shrewd fjord]

😂

[drifting arrow]

Alright it's probably shouldnt be 1500 lines..

But that's what refactoring is for 😉

[severe mural]

explain, this is my command and update code and but it does not seem missing commands 3

This problem cannot be solved. Discord bot is useless. Do you know how to solve it?

times expel and invite and no command appears are 3

[upbeat otter]

are your slash commands not appearing in the server?

[severe mural]

yes

that already add ready script "hello" this does not appear /hello.

[severe mural]

@upbeat otter hello?

are you busy lol?

there and nothing /bothost see not appearing

[upbeat otter]

do not sync in on_ready, use setup_hook

!d discord.Client.setup_hook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.setup\_hook

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

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

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

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

Warning

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

[severe mural]

@upbeat otter ohh

[upbeat otter]

?

[severe mural]

@upbeat otter how is explain example

Ah

Think there is on_ready change setup_hook

Correct?

[upbeat otter]

right

you could do that

[severe mural]

Ok, check

[upbeat otter]

or you can manually do that

async def setup_hook() -> None:
  await client.tree.sync()
  print(f"Synced Slash Commands")

client.setup_hook = setup_hook

[severe mural]

Ok

@upbeat otter ahh

I see thanks you help

[upbeat otter]

welcome

[severe mural]

On ready is bad?

Is old think?

Differents on ready and setuphook?

[upbeat otter]

no it's not good for performing other tasks except printing stuff

[severe mural]

Hmm i see okay thx

[upbeat otter]

setup_hook is triggered before any event in your bot is triggered, on_ready is triggered when your bot is fully loaded along with the cache and this may be triggered multiple times when you start your bot or at random times when your bot is running so it's not good to perform other tasks

[severe mural]

Ah i see

Ok thx

!intents in your code, not the portal

[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.

[light violet]

this is only the code

[slate swan]

enable intents.presences

[light violet]

intents=discord.Intents.all()

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix =[">", "."],intents=intents)

[slate swan]

do you have multiple on_member_update s?

[light violet]

nah

only 1

[slate swan]

is it placed after bot.run()?

[light violet]

is it rate limited

no

[slate swan]

you'll get an error msg if its ratelimited

[light violet]

no error msg

[slate swan]

!paste show full code

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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