!d discord.Interaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction

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

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

New in version 2.0.

[rare echo]

i prefer that over repl users asking how to host free

[random obsidian]

aha
interaction 😂

wait

[shrewd apex]

i dont prefer either both at bottom of my list

[rare echo]

ok be honest, bot = construct or client = construct x)

[shrewd apex]

async programming go brrr

lol and whats the error

[random obsidian]

@shrewd apex i had added this
but , still problem

its just let me enter 10 line of message

[shrewd apex]

bro i am 99% sure u copy pasted and have no idea whats happening

[random obsidian]

make sure with 100%

[naive briar]

Just putting async in front of function definition doesn't make the whole function asynchronous

[shrewd apex]

bro discord.py is async and just adding async to def dosent make stuff async io operations are blocking by io it includes read writing to files

[slate swan]

How do I get a bot to connect to the voice channel to which a specified user is connected?

[random obsidian]

yeah
exactly!
do u have problem with that?

[naive briar]

requests is blocking 🍷

[shrewd apex]

use aiofiles

[naive briar]

!blocking

[unkempt canyon]

Why do we need asynchronous programming?
Imagine that you're coding a Discord bot and every time somebody uses a command, you need to get some information from a database. But there's a catch: the database servers are acting up today and take a whole 10 seconds to respond. If you do not use asynchronous methods, your whole bot will stop running until it gets a response from the database. How do you fix this? Asynchronous programming.

What is asynchronous programming?
An asynchronous program utilises the async and await keywords. An asynchronous program pauses what it's doing and does something else whilst it waits for some third-party service to complete whatever it's supposed to do. Any code within an async context manager or function marked with the await keyword indicates to Python, that whilst this operation is being completed, it can do something else. For example:

import discord

# Bunch of bot code

async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("Pong!")

What does the term "blocking" mean?
A blocking operation is wherever you do something without awaiting it. This tells Python that this step must be completed before it can do anything else. Common examples of blocking operations, as simple as they may seem, include: outputting text, adding two numbers and appending an item onto a list. Most common Python libraries have an asynchronous version available to use in asynchronous contexts.

async libraries
The standard async library - asyncio
Asynchronous web requests - aiohttp
Talking to PostgreSQL asynchronously - asyncpg
MongoDB interactions asynchronously - motor

[rare echo]

[random obsidian]

whatever

[shrewd apex]

channel_id whats that it dosent exist in the local function evironment

[naive briar]

Use aiohttp, it was installed along with discord.py

[shrewd apex]

think of functions like a vending machine it only knows and has what u enter in it and gives u some output

so u either pass channel_id in params or u declare it in the function

@naive briar all urs 💐

imma dip

[naive briar]

It blocks your whole program when it's fetching the webpage or API until it's finished

[jovial lynx]

How can a discord bot make my server more interesting and make people talk?

it doesn't even get a new message every 10 hours

how?

[random obsidian]

thank you for your help @shrewd apex @oblique sorrel @rare echo

i had to convert it to f-string , maybe its help me

or
use embed for that

[rare echo]

a discord bot won’t be groundbreaking for a server, if your server isn’t building a community then it’s just like every other server

[rare echo]

as much help as mobile is

[random obsidian]

🌹

[rare echo]

i’ll be back in ab 45 and can help

[shrewd fjord]

wdym

await site.json()

yes you can

wait no

xd
because you need to await it too lol

u can do

idk i forgor lol

you can double await it.......

data = await (await session.get()).json()

hm?

.....

[normal harbor]

can somebody join a VC with me so you can help me

[shrewd fjord]

💀

idk

how aiohttp takes loop args?

then just remove it

xd

[normal harbor]

can somebody help me we're discord bot

[shrewd fjord]

or await client.fetch_channel(channel_id)

remove this 💀

[shrewd fjord]

ye?

[shrewd fjord]

what's the prob?

import discord

the first line

[normal harbor]

doesn't run

[shrewd fjord]

you need to install discord.py

pip install discord.py
in terminal

[normal harbor]

still doesn't run

[shrewd fjord]

.........

what did u do? xd

[normal harbor]

I did what you said

[shrewd fjord]

show me

[shrewd fjord]

hmm you need to create env file

i think so

[normal harbor]

ok

[shrewd apex]

whats this toast function?

[slate swan]

https://pypi.org/project/win10toast/

[rare echo]

with dpy? odd

[shrewd apex]

yeah so u can use toast_async

which toast uses in backend

and await it

[oblique fern]

Anyone have an idea?

nevermind

[maiden fable]

Oh what was the issue?

[oblique fern]

one of my send_messages was a send

[maiden fable]

Ah that explains

Also, it shouldn't have been Messageable.send()

Since Messageable means its a simple command (because Messageable represents a TextChannel)

[oblique fern]

yea the preceding object was wrong as well

[maiden fable]

What is the discord.py version u r using?

And please say u pip installed discord.py and not discord

and what did u pip install?

pip install discord.py?

or pip install discord

Uh, run pip show discord.py

and pip show discord

yea lol

and can u try pip uninstall discord?

Okay so the package is correct

I wish you had access to that lol

when r u running the function?

on_ready or what

Okay here comes sarth

He gonna solve yr queries

[slate swan]

missing sentinel error in requests usually get raised when rest is not ready

[maiden fable]

Nice name u got there sarth

request as in, u r sending an API request when the bot is not ready

API Request as in the fetch method

not the requests module

[shrewd fjord]

he is talking about web parsing or getting information from a web api.....

that's why catgal suggested aiohttp since this lib is not a blocking func

[shrewd apex]

whats happening here

[shrewd fjord]

what's blockink func? simply if u use requests module seems ok if the website's API is too good like doesnt even get host error then ok..... but some of them web need to get temporary down thus the API in this mean time if u use requests it will try to get info from web but it will fail as because the web is down, so using aiohttp which is asynchronous not gonna break ur other codes 💀

ig i tried 😂

"url"?

oh the actual web url?

[shrewd apex]

first time i see site without http

[shrewd fjord]

then ggood

[shrewd fjord]

🤝

but u sure mate u defined the url?

ok gooooood...

💀 nice

[shrewd apex]

ppl dont even know legb scope rule

[shrewd fjord]

what about channel_id?

[maiden fable]

I don't think you can send request to a website without http/https in the endpoint url

[shrewd fjord]

ahh then?

ikr

i hope u have like this

Anyone willing to help test a discord based game I've made using discord.py? It requires at least 3 players (but can be tested with 2) so if anyone can help me feel free to message or ping!

[shrewd apex]

friends me sarth ashley savvy and another guy

[maiden fable]

what is the issue?

[slate swan]

just don't call that coro before the bot is running

[shrewd fjord]

how much time it gonna take

i dont wanna miss these ot scenes 💀

[oblique fern]

one round is 15 minutes, but i'd like to test 2-3 iterations. It's quite passive you don't need to be there the whole 15 minutes

[shrewd fjord]

#python-discussion will help u xd

[oblique fern]

I don't know if it's ok to ask there haha

[vocal snow]

WHAT

😭 cogs

[vague zephyr]

wtf it's cogs not cocks lol

[slate swan]

Is there a way to get the voice channel a user is in based on their id?

[vocal snow]

and a guild id, sure

!d discord.Member.voice

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.voice

property voice```
Returns the member’s current voice state.

[slate swan]

How do I use my guild id? This is the current code

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    member = bot.get_user(000000000000)
    await member.voice.channel.connect()```

[vocal snow]

first use bot.get_guild to get a discord.Guild object

then use guild.get_member to get a Member object

and then connect

[slate swan]

I was able to execute it!!!! Thank you so much!

[buoyant quail]

why do you want that? and how will it guess, which command is excpected to run?

if they have same names - you can make them both in one command

[quick gust]

ctrl + f2 in ur files

and search for the name

on Mac?

Idk of there's a ctrl on Mac

Or is ur ctrl key just missing

[rare echo]

strg

[quick gust]

strg

goofy ahh keyboard

search for it manually

or there might be another way depending on your editor, google it

[junior terrace]

hey i need help setting up a command, i need to kick every user in my server wich has written less than like 10 messages, is it possible?
i can't find anything online about that
i guess no one has ever needed to do that
do you guys think it is possible?

[verbal hawk]

Hi, I'm trying to send the date which is the given days + the time now, and another argument which is a specific member. Without the member argument it works fine, but with the member argument I get this error:
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'datetime.date' and 'Member'

The code:

async def fj(ctx, days, member: discord.Member):
    end_date = date.today() + timedelta(int(days))
    await ctx.send(end_date + member)```

I write `.fj 5 @user` 

It may has something to do with separating the arguments in the `.fj 5 @user`  command in a specific way but idk

[fathom fjord]

i've never tried dpy but you could get the amount of messages every user has (it's possible cuz there's bots that count top messaging users in a server)
and for the users w less than 10 messages just kick them

[junior terrace]

yeah, mee6 does that, the issue is that i need to automate the process, i can't manually kick 400 people

[fathom fjord]

well a kick command over a list ig?

[junior terrace]

and i can't get the list of users, just a dashboard online

pretty sad

[quick gust]

why cant u automate it

[torn sail]

well if you haven't tracked each message when they were sent it would be very hard to go through every message in the server

unless there are very little messages

[torn sail]

well end_date is a date object and member is a Member object and you are adding them? how do you want it to be sent?

[verbal hawk]

oh right, I forgot to add an f string, tysm

I did not mean to add them lmao

[vale wing]

Just prune members if you need to kick all inactive people

[slate swan]

Hello, anyone know how i can do this in my code?

[hallow sparrow]

What library are you using?

[slate swan]

discord.py

[hallow sparrow]

Lemme look something real quick.

Yeah, I’m sorry. I don’t use Discord.py.

Hopefully someone else can help.

[slate swan]

No problem

Can i have some help, im tryna make a bot that plays music from youtube through a voice channel but i keep getting so many random errors to the point i just deleted it, can someone help me recode it?

Im doing it on Repl.it

And running the bot through UptimeRobot as a free way to keep it running

[hallow sparrow]

That’s against YouTube’s terms of service.

[slate swan]

il do it with spotify, soundcloud or something else then

[sick birch]

Spotify doesn't allow that unless you've premium

[slate swan]

i do.

[sick birch]

SoundCloud is doubtful but possible

[slate swan]

ok

how do i do it with spotify

[sick birch]

In general music sites don't want you streaming off platform which is why it's difficult

[slate swan]

i think i have an app in spotify dev

[slate swan]

okay

[sick birch]

https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/ out of scope for this channel but here's to get you started

[slate swan]

Anyone know? 😅

[slate swan]

alr!

[slate swan]

its a slash command option, the way to do it depends on the wrapper you use

[oblique fern]

Hello, still need this?

[slate swan]

they are either still using prefix commands along with slash commands, or the content creator is dumb

They might be using a !sync command to sync their app commands, so a text command prefix would be needed in that case.

a !sync command isnt really a requirement, a slash command locked to a guild with owner check ( if the sync is more than just tree.sync()) or just an on_message will suffice

[hushed galleon]

tbf commands.Bot makes command_prefix a required argument, so you gotta write something for it

[sick birch]

I wonder why it comes with a default tree then

That implies you should be using bot for app commands

Yet required command prefix

[mental hollow]

so I’m using on_user_update and I want to post to a guild that a member has updated their name/discrim/avatar

I’m using mongo db to store guild IDs and log channel IDs

before & after in on_user_update are instances of discord.User

not discord.Member, so there is no guild

so how would I go about doing this?

[sick birch]

Perhaps you want to use on_member_update?

[mental hollow]

that isn’t called when a user updates their name/discrim or avatar

and those are the 3 updates I’m looking for

[sick birch]

Ah ok. You'd probably have to loop through all your guilds and check if that user is in that guild

Have you tested locally to see if it really does/doesn't do what you want?

[mental hollow]

aw man I didn’t want to do that

[sick birch]

I would say test on_member_update locally as it might be what you're looking for

[mental hollow]

I originally had my code for when a user updated their name and stuff in on_member_update (if before.name != after.name) and that code wasn’t being called at all

So I looked at docs

[sick birch]

Ah yikes, looks like you'll have to do it manually then

[mental hollow]

^ like this?

[sick birch]

Yup

The issue is when a user is in multiple shared guilds

I suppose then you'd just send it to all of them

Should actually be pretty simple now that I think about it

guilds = filter(lambda guild: user in guild, bot.guilds)

[mental hollow]

I’ve never used filter/lambda in my life

🥲

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member.mutual_guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.mutual\_guilds

property mutual_guilds```
Equivalent to [`User.mutual_guilds`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User.mutual_guilds "discord.User.mutual_guilds")

[mental hollow]

for guild in before.mutual_guilds:
    data = db.LOGGING.find_one({"_id": guild.id})
    if data:
        #send webhook here

sorry for the slow typing I’m on my phone

smth like that should work right?

[slate swan]

if before is your Member/User object. yes

[mental hollow]

alrighty ty

[sick birch]

nvm just use this lol

TIL that existed

[slate swan]

is that pymongo?

[mental hollow]

yes

[slate swan]

you should be using the async mongodb driver for a discord bot (, its called motor ), you'll just have to add a bunch of awaits

!pip motor

[unkempt canyon]

motor v3.1.1

Non-blocking MongoDB driver for Tornado or asyncio

[mental hollow]

wait

I forgot

idk why I said I’m using pymongo

I am using motor aha

[pliant gulch]

Shouldn't your query be called via await/async syntax then?

If you are using Motor, find_one is a coroutine function. So if you don't await it you're not gonna get the expected behaviour

[mental hollow]

seems to work fine for everything else without await

Pretty sure it causes an error when I make it async

hold on let me jsk it and see

[pliant gulch]

Pretty sure that means find_one is not a coroutine function then

Perhaps you are using Motor but not in db.LOGGING

And or you made that interface without having the overhead method as a coroutine function

!e ```py
async def example() -> None:
print("Hello World")

example() # note: not awaiting the coroutine.

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | <string>:4: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'example' was never awaited
002 | RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

[mental hollow]

yeah I used jsk and await works fine too

this whole time I haven’t been using await tho and it seems to work fine

I’ll add await to make my code more asynchronousy.. thank you

[pliant gulch]

Can you show the db.LOGGING.find_one method?

If there is no problem great, but I'm kind of curious what your function looks like in order to make it work in that way

[slate swan]

💀 or maybe its "just working" but not working as it should

[mental hollow]

I’m importing database as db, and in my database.py file, I have:

import os 
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from motor.motor_asyncio import AsyncIOMotorClient

load_dotenv()

MONGO_CLIENT = AsyncIOMotorClient(os.getenv('MONGOURL'))

DATABASE = MONGO_CLIENT["Aziel"]

LOGGING = DATABASE["Logging"]

then I’m just using find_one on that

[slate swan]

the docs say that its a coro

[mental hollow]

pymongo?

[slate swan]

nah, motor

https://motor.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api-tornado/motor_collection.html#motor.motor_tornado.MotorCollection.find_one

the return type is from pymongo because motor just wraps pymongo in a run_in_executor

[mental hollow]

weird…

I’ve got no clue how it works tbh

[slate swan]

!e ```py
async def a_condition_that_actually_returns_false():
return False

if a_condition_that_actually_returns_false():
print(1) # no error, but works!

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

[pliant gulch]

Reading the source code for Motor and I've got to say, what the hell lmao

[slate swan]

there can be such flukes 🤷‍♂️

[pliant gulch]

Granted this is my first source dive of Motor but

[mental hollow]

I’m actually interested on how this is working now

[slate swan]

print the data variable here and see for yerself

[mental hollow]

hold on

[pliant gulch]

From what I see Motor wraps using a bunch of base classes like Async that then wraps the synchronous function in a Future

Then it get's ran in another thread

[sick birch]

Is that necessarily bad?

[mental hollow]

that’s the difference between using await and not using await

[sick birch]

Or just unorthodox

[pliant gulch]

It's hard to read at least for me

[mental hollow]

whoops

[pliant gulch]

Because there is so much nesting going on

[mental hollow]

didn’t crop one of them

[pliant gulch]

It's not typed either

[slate swan]

the first one of them is just a pending future i.e. regardless if the data exists or not your condition will continue...

[mental hollow]

that was the difference between using await/not using await

[mental hollow]

so in short, when I’m using if data: I need to use await otherwise I’m gonna run into errors?

[slate swan]

you always need to await it

its a Future

[pliant gulch]

Does the pending future complete the query to your mongo DB?

[slate swan]

as long as you want to get a result*

[mental hollow]

just checked, it doesn’t seem to now

[pliant gulch]

It's a safe bet to await your Future's/coroutines, cause yea they can still execute in a way but you WON'T know when, causes issues like race conditions

That's why await is so good

[mental hollow]

for guild in before.mutual_guilds:
    data = await db.LOGGING.find_one({"_id": guild.id})

    if data is None:
        return

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        logWeb = discord.Webhook.from_url(data["loggingWebhook"], session = session)
        if before.name != after.name:
            embed = discord.Embed()
            embed.title = "This is an example of my code."
            await logWeb.send(embed = embed)

this code doesn’t wanna post my webhook

and it doesn’t give me an error either

[mental hollow]

noted.. ty

[pliant gulch]

If this helps here's a good visual

[pliant gulch]

await logWeb.send

[mental hollow]

sorry await is in my actual code

I just didn’t write it there cause I wrote that on my phone

[pliant gulch]

If it neither errors nor sends an embed, then you might wanna check if before.name != after.name:

[mental hollow]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_user_update(self, before, after):
        for guild in before.mutual_guilds:
            data = await db.LOGGING.find_one({"_id": guild.id})
        if data is None:
            return
        if before.bot:
            return
        async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:  
            logWeb = Webhook.from_url(data["loggingWebhook"], session = session)
            if before.name != after.name:
                e = discord.Embed(colour = 0x2f3136)
                e.set_author(name = f"{before.name} changed their name!", icon_url = before.display_avatar.url)
                e.description = f"**Before:** {before.name}\n**+After:** {after.name}"
                e.set_footer(text = "This event occured:")
                e.timestamp = discord.utils.utcnow()
                e.set_thumbnail(url = before.display_avatar.url)
                await logWeb.send(embed = e)

my raw code

and I just changed my name

from Chaze to some random letters

Then from the random letters back to Chaze

so there is no reason it shouldn’t be called

[naive briar]

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change...

[mental hollow]

me and robin had this convo earlier lol

[mental hollow]

^

[pliant gulch]

Is data none?

Also your code errors when mutual_guilds is []

Because data isn't defined in the second if statement

If the for-loop never enters that is

[mental hollow]

nope

data has a value

and it should be returned if it’s none

[pliant gulch]

Have you made sure your event callback is fired?

Like can you add a print/and or did you have one

[mental hollow]

I’ll try add one

"This resource is being ratelimited."

let me try my discrim

yup, it’s being fired

if before.discriminator != after.discriminator:
                e = discord.Embed(colour = 0x2f3136)
                e.set_author(name = f"{before.name} changed their discriminator!", icon_url = before.display_avatar.url)
                e.description = f"**Before:** {before.discriminator}\n**+After:** {after.discriminator}"
                e.set_footer(text = "This event occured:")
                e.timestamp = discord.utils.utcnow()
                e.set_thumbnail(url = before.display_avatar.url)
                await logWeb.send(embed = e)

that’s the code for sending my embed when a discrim is updated, that isn’t sent either

[mental hollow]

^ just another if statement under this code

[pliant gulch]

Is this discord.py's Webhook class?

[mental hollow]

I’m using pycord

[mental hollow]

and yes

for pycord, it is

[pliant gulch]

Okay, pycord's send for Webhook is not a coroutine function

Fault on my part

I would remove the await and try again, if that doesn't work then make sure the webhook url is indeed the correct one

[mental hollow]

it is

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/webhooks.html#discord.Webhook.send

[mental hollow]

should be because my on_message_delete using the same variable (data["loggingWebhook"]) in the exact same way which works perfectly fine

[pliant gulch]

I don't know if the documentation is wrong or not but https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/91ca670dd3116a7bb195a322c930f2a8b4f0fcfe/discord/webhook/sync.py#L954-L1087

Here in the source code it's non-coroutine

[mental hollow]

I think the source code isn’t updated

cause im using send as a coroutine in on_message_delete

works perfectly fine

[pliant gulch]

The link I just sent is from the master branch

And I checked the GitHub link of the documentation you sent me, it's invalid

Oh nevermind it works now?

Holdon a sec

Okay pycord is just confusing the hell out of me

There are two Webhook classes both with the same exact name

One is sync and the other is async

So I'm really lost at this point

[mental hollow]

Should probably report it to them at .gg/pycord

[pliant gulch]

I think it's been fixed on the master branch

But whichever commit hash I was just looking at had two

[mental hollow]

so conclusion is it’s a coroutine right?

[pliant gulch]

Should be

But I really don't know what the issue is in your code

At this point we've gone over any logic issues and it not being called

But those aren't the issue so I'm lost

[mental hollow]

aw

I’ll try ask in the pycord support server, ty for ur help!

[slate swan]

pretty sure there is sync and async for webhooks intentionally

they just dont have it documented. they are really bad at documenting shit

[marsh stirrup]

Hello

I need help with doing somethin

It has to do with discord bots?

[feral timber]

What seems to be the problem?

[mental hollow]

ok so turns out data is None

for guild in before.mutual_guilds:
            data = await db.LOGGING.find_one({"_id": guild.id})

so that is returning None

[vocal burrow]

Selfbot

raise LoginFailure('Improper token has been passed.') from exc
discord.errors.LoginFailure: Improper token has been passed.

how to fix this

[feral timber]

Selfbot
Selfbots break ToS and are against our server rules

[vocal burrow]

k

[alpine cove]

lmao

[pliant gulch]

Kek, so it was a logic issue there

Was suspicious of data

[mental hollow]

😂

[mental hollow]

yeah pycord server said "Well that's not going to work since you're reassigning the value of data in every iteration."

so I’m ummm a bit stuck

I don’t really wanna use mutual_guilds anymore since that is only cached guilds

so not sure what to do

[slate swan]

So, I am using aiohttp to save the contents of a URL to a bytesIO object so I can send it as a file with discord.py and for some reason it just keeps erroring out, either valueerror null or request entity too large

[pliant gulch]

When would it not be cached?

The cache is populated on gateway connection, it's updated when given certain events, etc

It will almost always be up to date, that is granted you don't block your own bot

[mental hollow]

so all mutual guilds should infact be cached?

[mental hollow]

block my own bot?

[pliant gulch]

Yes

Like using time.sleep to desync any inbound events

[mental hollow]

ah I see

[pliant gulch]

That might cause your bot to have a "dead" cache

[mental hollow]

kk, noted that

right so now I will be using mutual_guilds

pycord server have told me this: "Don't reassign the value? Store the IDs in a collection and iterate over them when sending your webhook"

so that’s what I’m working with atm

[pliant gulch]

Yea you are re-assigning the variable you set

So your data would only be for the last mutual guild in the list

[mental hollow]

this is really confusing

maybe cause it’s 5AM

but idk what else to do/try

[vocal snow]

well, that is because andy is very smart in the aspect of developing. so when andy explains something to someone who doesnt have the same knowledge, it may be looked at as confusing because andy is explaining something with the assumption it can be understood as simply as he/she understands the topic. so yeah it creates confusion. thats why you ask more and more. the more you ask the more you know. dont walk away misunderstanding the topic because one explanation didnt give you the knowledge needed. im sure andy would have been willing to break down the explanation.

[pliant gulch]

!e ```py
for i in range(10):
foo = i

print(foo)

[unkempt canyon]

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

9

[pliant gulch]

this is basically what your doing

Your should be doing logic inside of the body

[mental hollow]

so everything in for loop

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_user_update(self, before, after):
        for guild in before.mutual_guilds:
            data = await db.LOGGING.find_one({"_id": guild.id})
            if data is None:
                return
            if before.bot:
                return
            async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:  
                logWeb = Webhook.from_url(data["loggingWebhook"], session = session)
                if before.name != after.name:
                    e = discord.Embed(colour = 0x2f3136)
                    e.set_author(name = f"{before.name} changed their name!", icon_url = before.display_avatar.url)
                    e.description = f"**Before:** {before.name}\n**+After:** {after.name}"
                    e.set_footer(text = "This event occured:")
                    e.timestamp = discord.utils.utcnow()
                    e.set_thumbnail(url = before.display_avatar.url)
                    await logWeb.send(embed = e)

like so?

[pliant gulch]

Actually, I'm unsure what the mutual_guilds is for exactly

But this'll use data in respects to mutual_guilds

But your webhook is the same so it'll send in the same spot everything

[mossy jacinth]

How can I stop my bot from replacing all the text inside the txt file with the newest confession?

[mental hollow]

Webhook url should be different for every guild

[slate swan]

Iirc you're looking for the a mode

I would also use aiofiles

[mental hollow]

so I don’t have to loop every guild and check if the user is in it?

[shrewd apex]

sup

[slate swan]

hi

[vocal snow]

😠

[shrewd apex]

y the long break

[slate swan]

Dont really want to talk about it😅

[shrewd apex]

hunny bunny was so worried about u 😔

[vocal snow]

where is noid

[slate swan]

You havent changed a bit

[slate swan]

Let me guess, you guys thought me and him where the same person?

[shrewd apex]

was i supposed to

[shrewd apex]

ofc ofc for a while

[pliant gulch]

Oh didn't see that part

It should iterate through mutual_guilds then get the webhook for each

So yea it should do what you want

[slate swan]

kek he told me about it

[slate swan]

I mean, i guess

[shrewd apex]

okie I'll become all mature from tom

[slate swan]

we should go to dms or ot

[quick gust]

No

[slate swan]

too large means ur server doesnt have the ability to receive files that big

limit is increased based on server level.

Yeah I know

[maiden fable]

Who TF is this Okimii now..? @upbeat otter smh

[slate swan]

back to back scam

[maiden fable]

istg

[slate swan]

Whole lot of lies ik

[shrewd apex]

discord is a lie people on discord are liars

[shrewd apex]

lol

[maiden fable]

You being the biggest Yea you are right

[shrewd apex]

[slate swan]

I mean, everyone has lied in their life

yea but that identity thing is quite unique

huh

[shrewd apex]

identity fraud

[mossy jacinth]

The third text in the .txt file was answered with No in the name value. Why is it still writing it in the file? I tried to use == "Yes" or "yes": before but it also didnt work...

[slate swan]

I literally just took a break due to some issues, how did i commit identity fraud💀

[upbeat otter]

uh...? How am I supposed to know

I literally just wole up

woke

it's the same old okimmi

[slate swan]

Why cant you spell my name yet

[upbeat otter]

it's the same thing, I just happen to do that unwillingly

[slate swan]

mk

[maiden fable]

Lies

[maiden fable]

You came back at the wrong time (if u really are oki), so yea, it's gonna take a few days

[maiden fable]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

# Incorrect...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[slate swan]

I did, hope you guys forgive me for what i did, had some issues, which i still have, but im trying my best

[mossy jacinth]

Can I ask what happened?

[maiden fable]

You don't wanna ask

[shrewd apex]

👍np np

[slate swan]

see yaa👋

[tough lance]

Need help with something ot

Wanna migrate from sqlite to postgresql. The code itself isn't the problem, I just don't know how to transfer data.

[upbeat otter]

Ok 💀

[slate swan]

is there an alternative method to sending an ephemeral message when using interaction?

[shrewd fjord]

huh?

[slate swan]

await interaction.response.send_message("message", ephemeral=True)

I already used this and need to send a second ephemeral message but I get

- This interaction has already been responded to before

So im looking for an alternative or how to use two in the same thing

[maiden fable]

interaction.followup

!d discord.Interaction.followup

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.followup

Returns the follow up webhook for follow up interactions.

[slate swan]

- TypeError: 'Webhook' object is not callable

[maiden fable]

.send

[light violet]

mem= discord.User(id)

is this a correct method to fetch a discord user by id?

[maiden fable]

No

!d discord.Client.get_user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.get\_user

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

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

[light violet]

ok

[light violet]

can it fetch the user which is unknown

i mean not in any mutual servers

by id

[shrewd fjord]

will return None

[slate swan]

what do you mean .send? interaction.channel.send doesnt have ephemeral and user.send goes to dm

[light violet]

the user which is not in it's mutual servers

[shrewd fjord]

interaction.followup.send bro

[shrewd fjord]

it's not going to return None maybe

[light violet]

so what is best get user or fetch user

[shrewd fjord]

client obj only has this two methods, get_user and fetch_user u can give it a try if it can fetch the user or not which is not in mutual server

[slate swan]

- 404 Not Found (error code: 10015): Unknown Webhook

this is what interaction.followup.send gives

[shrewd fjord]

give code

[slate swan]

i got it ty

[upbeat otter]

get_user will never work since it searches the cache for the user but it'll always return None since your app never loads that user to the cache as the user is unknown to the app

[maiden fable]

@light violet to get a user who isn't in yr bot's servers use fetch

[light violet]

ok thanks

[quick gust]

LMFAO

[odd mango]

[slate swan]

also try not to use fetch so much as it makes a call to the api everytime

[light violet]

ohk

[normal harbor]

can somebody help me code a discord bot if yes please join the VC0

[slate swan]

hello

u need to add an item

!d discord.ui.View.add_item

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.add\_item

Why can't you just add an empty void into your view items

[maiden fable]

What would even be the use of that lmao

[naive briar]

Void

[golden depot]

anyone help

please

how can i create slash commands

[slate swan]

is there a way to create event buttons ? or i need to put them inside commands ?

[maiden fable]

event buttons?

You mean send a button whenever suppose, a message is deleted?

[slate swan]

like @on_button_click

[maiden fable]

Ah

Well there is nothing like that
But you can implement something like that on your own!

[slate swan]

or something like that, cause when i restart my bot , my buttons don't work anymore, cause the command stopped

[maiden fable]

Do u know about botvars?

[slate swan]

no

[maiden fable]

!botvar

[unkempt canyon]

Python allows you to set custom attributes to most objects, like your bot! By storing things as attributes of the bot object, you can access them anywhere you access your bot. In the discord.py library, these custom attributes are commonly known as "bot variables" and can be a lifesaver if your bot is divided into many different files. An example on how to use custom attributes on your bot is shown below:

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
# Set an attribute on our bot
bot.test = "I am accessible everywhere!"

@bot.command()
async def get(ctx: commands.Context):
    """A command to get the current value of `test`."""
    # Send what the test attribute is currently set to
    await ctx.send(ctx.bot.test)

@bot.command()
async def setval(ctx: commands.Context, *, new_text: str):
    """A command to set a new value of `test`."""
    # Here we change the attribute to what was specified in new_text
    bot.test = new_text

This all applies to cogs as well! You can set attributes to self as you wish.

Be sure not to overwrite attributes discord.py uses, like cogs or users. Name your attributes carefully!

[slate swan]

how can this help me ?

[maiden fable]

Wait I think there is a function like that

[slate swan]

OK

[maiden fable]

!d discord.on_interaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_interaction

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

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

Warning

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

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

discord.Client.add\_view

add_view(view, *, message_id=None)```
Registers a [`View`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View "discord.ui.View") for persistent listening.

This method should be used for when a view is comprised of components that last longer than the lifecycle of the program.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

i also found this

[maiden fable]

What lib r u using?

[slate swan]

discord.py==2.0.1

[maiden fable]

BTW Catgal how is he gonna get the view object?

[maiden fable]

No function like that in dpy

[slate swan]

okay

[random obsidian]

aha
thanks

[slate swan]

Idk if it exists in discord py but in nextcord there's button callbacks

[maiden fable]

There are button callbacks in discord.py too lol

[maiden fable]

Every fork took button callbacks from dpy only

[slate swan]

cool ! this worked after i restarted

[maiden fable]

Hey nice!

[slate swan]

Using callback?

[naive briar]

on interaction event probably

[slate swan]

no , on_interaction

callbacks stops working after restarting i think

[naive briar]

Not if you add the view to the bot using add_view

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/persistent.py#L39-L45

[unkempt canyon]

examples/views/persistent.py lines 39 to 45

async def setup_hook(self) -> None:
    # Register the persistent view for listening here.
    # Note that this does not send the view to any message.
    # In order to do this you need to first send a message with the View, which is shown below.
    # If you have the message_id you can also pass it as a keyword argument, but for this example
    # we don't have one.
    self.add_view(PersistentView())```

[maiden fable]

But then I am confused how does this even listen to events on an already sent view?

I mean, I don't think the bot can "see" the view that was sent before it restarted (as long as on_interaction isn't used)

[random obsidian]

hello
i had read your message
i want from bot to make an button on itself message when sent , and then , that bot take an action on that

[vale wing]

When user presses a button, gateway dispatches event, bot receives it. If it finds a persistent component that has same custom id with payload's component, then it invokes its callback

[wispy nexus]

@gilded gust for some reason the ping works as a prefix but the "ya" doesnt

prefix = ["ya","@clear monolith"]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("We have logged in as {0.user}".format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    message.content = message.content.lower()
    cmd = message.content.split(' ')
    if message.author == client.user or message.author.bot or cmd[0] not in prefix:
        return

[gilded gust]

hhuh

!or

[unkempt canyon]

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

# Incorrect...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[naive briar]

Is message_content intent enabled

!d discord.Intents.message_content

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.message\_content

Whether message content, attachments, embeds and components will be available in messages which do not meet the following criteria:

• The message was sent by the client

• The message was sent in direct messages

• The message mentions the client

This applies to the following events...

[naive briar]

Also just use discord.ext.commands.Bot if you want to create text commands

[wispy nexus]

it turns out it was not enabled, but i just assumed it was because the bot works fine when i use the ping

and it still doesn't work.

[quick gust]

u enabled them in your code?

!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.

[vale wing]

Messages containing bot's ping don't need message_content intent to access content that's why

[wispy nexus]

import os
import discord
import random
import cards

from keep_alive import keep_alive
from discord.embeds import Embed

intents = discord.Intents.default()
client = discord.Client(intents=intents)

[wispy nexus]

oh... well then

i need to remodel all my code then

[vale wing]

You only need to do commands properly that's it

[wispy nexus]

after i learn how to use discord.ext.commands.Bot

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

[vale wing]

Why flip table

[wispy nexus]

because this looks like it takes a long time

[vale wing]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/index.html

[wispy nexus]

will this work?

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["ya","@clear monolith"], intents=intents)

[vale wing]

1. Inconsistent variable naming, instance of Bot should be called bot, not client
2. Instead of parsing bot's mentions as prefix, use commands.when_mentioned_or

!d discord.ext.commands.when_mentioned_or

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.when\_mentioned\_or

discord.ext.commands.when_mentioned_or(*prefixes)```
A callable that implements when mentioned or other prefixes provided.

These are meant to be passed into the [`Bot.command_prefix`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.command_prefix "discord.ext.commands.Bot.command_prefix") attribute.

Example

```py
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or('!'))
```...

[wispy nexus]

this really is going to take a long time

[vale wing]

Why do you think so

[wispy nexus]

i dont know how to use def

[vale wing]

Understandable

You need functional programming and OOP knowledge

So I suggest taking python courses

[somber imp]

Discord bot shouldn't really be one your first few projects

[wispy nexus]

3 months of my life just to make this bot do something simple

[vale wing]

^

[wispy nexus]

what can i say. i feel like a pro when something works

[somber imp]

Lmao

[slate swan]

[vale wing]

You can learn that stuff in a short period of time then practice on bot

[somber imp]

That pro feeling will weeks to actually happen ngl

[somber imp]

Yeah

[vale wing]

Everyone does

[wispy nexus]

indeed. my motivation will die very quickly

[naive briar]

Literally me

[somber imp]

Rather 1 month of python learning and practice will make you much better

[vale wing]

Learning basics of functional programming and OOP can be done within one day

Then pure practice and extending knowledge

[somber imp]

Async programming too

[slate swan]

you will go super-Sayan when you learn OOP and how to use classes trust me

[vale wing]

Async programming can be learned from a discord bot

[wispy nexus]

me who is coding bots that do things only cus i know how to use if statements

and lists

[vale wing]

That's already cool but yeah functional programming and OOP are required

[wispy nexus]

i aslo know how to use while loops

[slate swan]

That's a good start :-)

[wispy nexus]

watch me die of depression before i do that

books and yt videos are so hard to follow for me

[shrewd fjord]

but bad ending sedly

[vale wing]

What about online courses

Personally I strongly recommend stepik

[naive briar]

Examples

[shrewd fjord]

stepik

[wispy nexus]

me who is poor

[vale wing]

There are free courses bru

[wispy nexus]

really?

interesting

[vale wing]

Most of python courses are free

https://stepik.org

[shrewd fjord]

;-;

[vale wing]

And personally I learned python from a book at like 10 years, then re-learned it on sololearn and then years of practice and docs reading

[wispy nexus]

you are a pro

[slate swan]

where can you host python scripts to run 24/7 for example i need my loop to run forever?

[wispy nexus]

on your pc

[naive briar]

VPS

[slate swan]

no

[shrewd fjord]

what the

[naive briar]

See #965291480992321536

[shrewd fjord]

10 years + extra 5 years

[vale wing]

Depends what kind of loop

[slate swan]

Also try finding simpler projects to work on that don't involve complicated external libraries. Find ways to incorporate concepts into these projects that you're not very familiar with, so as to get some good Python practise going.

[vale wing]

How the heck did you count that

[naive briar]

lol

[shrewd fjord]

guess ig

i think re-learned would take this long time 💀

[slate swan]

its a loop with discord requests

[shrewd fjord]

dang

[wispy nexus]

mind tutoring me a little?

[slate swan]

No I suck. :-)

[vale wing]

I mean when I was 10 my brain was too small to understand OOP

[shrewd fjord]

ahh i fould a video over a year ago, telling a best github project to learn whole python 💀

[shrewd fjord]

TF U STARTED FROM 10???????

[wispy nexus]

@vale wing the pro
mind tutoring me?

[slate swan]

so

[vale wing]

Yes lol

[wispy nexus]

me who started a few months ago

[shrewd fjord]

REAL GIGA AGAIN FOUND

[vale wing]

And I barely understood functions then got completely stuck on OOP

[shrewd fjord]

bro i didnt even know how to do 4/2 while i was 10

🐸

[slate swan]

[vale wing]

Because I didn't know english well that age

[shrewd fjord]

OOp

cul

demn u guys are smort

[wispy nexus]

who me?

ty ty

[shrewd fjord]

;-;

[wispy nexus]

[vale wing]

Btw that book that was my entrypoint to python programming was like "omg python 3 is out but it's bad, use python 2 🤗"

[shrewd fjord]

i forgor how to do that lmao

[slate swan]

Why don't we have reaction perms in this channel but other topic chats do

[shrewd fjord]

epic book

[shrewd fjord]

message can get spammed

u can also see other topics doesnt have channel cooldown but this channel has

xd

[slate swan]

Guess we're just misbehaved here

[shrewd fjord]

sed

[vale wing]

I am not a programming teacher sorry lol, I can give you resources tho

Programming is best to be learned by oneself imo

[shrewd fjord]

"resources"

[shrewd fjord]

agreed

🗿

[wispy nexus]

this is why im bad at life. i suck at learning in general

[shrewd fjord]

u will get more interest when u will complete some small projects

like printing hello world :)

[slate swan]

hi

[shrewd fjord]

halo

[slate swan]

i need examples/explanation how to connect to discord websocket using aiohttp, i don't understand websockets a lot

[wispy nexus]

im very motivated to go straight to my bot than to do something small

[shrewd fjord]

then u will get stucked very bad xd

create some big game with only python and get motivated 💀

[somber imp]

#python-discussion ?

[shrewd fjord]

ash

[upbeat otter]

"I have made a discord bot but the only catch would be that I don't know how it works"
seems cooler to say right

[upbeat otter]

spook

[shrewd fjord]

y >:(

[upbeat otter]

sorry I had to go

[vale wing]

There's surely a way of getting information suitable for you

[shrewd fjord]

;-;

[upbeat otter]

typing on phone is hard, not my fault

[shrewd fjord]

....... 70 wpm

[wispy nexus]

indeed

[upbeat otter]

I was on laptop lmao

[shrewd fjord]

........ oh hunter did 70 wpm on phone i forgor

[upbeat otter]

if you're gonna keep up with that attitude for learning things, you'll never make it to the top

[upbeat otter]

Hunnie Bunnie's like a God
He chats on instagram 14 hours a day what do you expect

[wispy nexus]

i need a pro to take me step by step and doesnt give me too much info at once. books and readable sources explain so much that idk what im supposed to do. yt videos explain nothing and i just end up copying and pasting

[upbeat otter]

books dont do that

[shrewd fjord]

demn

[shrewd fjord]

w3schools.com

step by step 🐸

[upbeat otter]

the only thing is he doesnt use instagram

[shrewd fjord]

what tf is this plot twist xd

[wispy nexus]

darn it all i want in to add "ya" as a prefix

screw the prefix then
ill learn it when i make my other bot

for now, ill just use the ping

[slate swan]

this

[vale wing]

Why not use ready wrapper

[slate swan]

because no

[vale wing]

Connecting to websocket is very easy

[slate swan]

examples

[vale wing]

https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/client_quickstart.html#websockets

And yeah make sure to read this too https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway

[hushed galleon]

if you want a tried-and-true example of connecting to discord's websocket with aiohttp, look at discord.py's source code and follow the method calls used by their DiscordWebSocket class
https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/client.py#L591-L597

[unkempt canyon]

discord/client.py lines 591 to 597

hi

[oblique fern]

        button_view = ui.View()
        for i in range(len(self.submissions)):
            # add dynamic number of buttons to view
            button_view.add_item((ui.Button(label=f"Button #{i+1}", style=ButtonStyle.primary, custom_id=f"{i+1}")))
        await interaction.channel.send(
            embed=await MessageUtils.embed_message("message description example"), view=button_view
        )

I have this code that adds a dynamic number of buttons to a message labeled "Button #X" where x is a number.
What can I do now to:

1. for the next 60 seconds:
2. allow all members to click the button once, but disable it only for that member after clicking
3. see which button is clicked / how many times

[late needle]

i have doubt

hlo

i need a code which store data of each and every user
