Tempmute command mutes the person but doesn't unmute them after the timer is over, can anyone help?

@bot.tree.command(name='tempmute', description='Temporarily mutes a member')
@has_permissions(kick_members=True)
async def tempmute(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member, time: str, reason: str=None):
    desctime = time
    guild = interaction.guild
    mutedRole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Muted")
    time_convert = {"s":1, "m":60, "h":3600, "d":86400, "w":604800, "mo":18144000, "y":31536000}
    tempmute= int(time[:-1]) * time_convert[time[-1]]
    if not mutedRole:
        mutedRole = await guild.create_role(name="Muted")
        for channel in guild.channels:
            await channel.set_permissions(mutedRole, speak=False, send_messages=False, read_message_history=True, read_messages=True)
    await member.add_roles(mutedRole, reason=reason)
    embed = discord.Embed(title=(f'***{member} has been muted for {desctime}*** | {reason}'), color=0xf6ff00)
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed)
    await member.send(f"You have been temporarily muted from: ***{guild.name}*** for **{desctime}** | {reason}")
    await asyncio.sleep(tempmute)
    if mutedRole in member.roles:
        await member.send(f"You have been unmuted from: ***{guild.name}***")
        await member.remove_roles(mutedRole)

[slate swan]

Try printing tempmute and check that it is indeed the expected value.
Also, muting members by adding a Muted role is outdated, the built-in time-out feature is much more reliable and easy to use now.

[sick birch]

The entire command could be shortened into 1 line :P

[pulsar kettle]

Forgot Discord had a time out feature, I'll look into it, thanks!

[sick birch]

!d discord.Member.timeout to point you in the right direction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.timeout

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

Applies a time out to a member until the specified date time or for the given [`datetime.timedelta`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.timedelta "(in Python v3.11)").

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

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.edit "discord.Member.edit").

[pulsar kettle]

thank you <3

[flint bolt]

im looking to add a description to my discord bot that rolls a dice after it rolls, so it sends the embed first and then changes the text afterwards. can I do that somehow?

@tree.command(name='dice', description='Roll a metaphorical dice!')
async def dice(interaction: discord.Interaction, start:str=None, end:str=None):
    dice_embed=discord.Embed(title=f'Rolling the dice...', description=None, color=discord.Colour.og_blurple())
    dice_embed.set_footer(text=str(datetime.datetime.now))
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=dice_embed)
    await asyncio.sleep(1)
    dice_embed.set_description(text=random.randint({start}, {end}))

and also id like to add a gif of a dice roll to the embed. how do i do that?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed.set_image /set_thumbmail depending upon where you want to add the gif

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_image

set_image(*, url)```
Sets the image for the embed content.

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

[shrewd fjord]

Wassup

[flint bolt]

what about changing the description after the embed is sent

[shrewd fjord]

I think after adding the desc u need to send the embed again or edit the msg

[flint bolt]

alright

[slate swan]

sleepy

[flint bolt]

and wait how do i copy the image url

is it copy address?

[shrewd fjord]

Me just woke up 🗿

[shrewd fjord]

Yes

Copy image address

[flint bolt]

wait but what do i replace the star with

dude the docs are so confusing omg

Hiya, trying to add timeout slash command but I get this error when I run the bot ```TypeError: SelectOption.init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'require'

```python
@bot.tree.command(name = 'timeout', description = "mutes/timeouts a member")

    if member.id == ctx.author.id:
        await ctx.respond("You can't timeout yourself!")

[flint bolt]

hmm

you can definitely make it in a simpler way

[pulsar kettle]

I figured haha

[naive briar]

You can just type hint and set default value 🥴

I can't read any of those

[slate swan]

you need to use app_commands.Arument, not a SelectOption.

[flint bolt]

you can do something like this

async def warn(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member, reason: str=None):
    warn_embed = discord.Embed(title='Warning', description=f'Successfully warned {member.mention} for {reason}.', color=discord.Colour.og_blurple())

where you define the reason as None

before sending it

but yeah otherwise i can't read almost anything from that code

[sick birch]

You're aware you can do member.mention and ctx.author.mention?

[slate swan]

discord.py app command do be weird ;-;

why would they call it Argument and not Option

[sick birch]

Probably more inline with how it's called in programming, I suppose

[slate swan]

i mean they call the prefix command arguments as param 💀 lmao

Why is this not working?

[sick birch]

What makes you say it's not working?

[loud junco]

this means that my database url is not connected to my bot correctly right?

[sick birch]

Yes

postgres URL has the password in the URL if memory serves?

[loud junco]

idk

lemme show it here jkjk

aight its working

Trying to code a user profile command, works correctly when inputting a member, but when I leave the member blank it returns the error Command 'uinfo' raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'author' instead of sending the user info of the author. Please help <3

What does interaction.message supposed to mean

[sick birch]

What do you want it to do if the user leaves it blank?

[naive briar]

!d discord.Interaction.user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.user

The user or member that sent the interaction.

[pulsar kettle]

Ideally send the user profile of whoever inputted the command

[loud junco]

do you guys have any suggestion on how to define bot here

this is what i plan to do

[naive briar]

Function argument

Or in bot subclass, cog subclass, ...

[loud junco]

what is function argument

the thing inside () ?

[torn flame]

its giving me an error and is not printing that its logged in as ...

[sick birch]

It would be very helpful to know what the error is

[loud junco]

just screenshot the error and paste it here

[loud junco]

erm delete it ur token is there

[sick birch]

Can you copy and paste the text instead?

[naive briar]

Read the error maybe

!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.

[sick birch]

You will see a special little link pop up when you paste it here

Also the error tells you exactly what the error is and exactly how to solve it

That is, go to your "Bot" tab and enable the 3 intents

its called DatabaseFunc.fetchvalue(blah, blah, blah) right?

btw where do i add this link

Iirc it's "oauth2 -> in-app authorisation"

[loud junco]

what is this

[vale wing]

If your bot has them must turn on

[loud junco]

i see

bruh what is this

can i just put a rickroll link

[vale wing]

Ah yes that's trash

[loud junco]

i dont have a website just for TeRmS AnD CoNdItIoN

[vale wing]

Put it on github

[loud junco]

huh

README?

[vale wing]

No just create separate .md files or whatever

[sick birch]

you can create a seperate md file in your bot repo

Technically you're not supposed to make a Terms of Service with a lawyer but ...

[vale wing]

You may use these for reference, you just need to edit some things https://github.com/Exenifix/AIAS/tree/master/doc

[sick birch]

(Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer, don't take legal advise from random nerds online)

[vale wing]

Random nerds like me

[sick birch]

or me

[loud junco]

LOL

hipidi hopedi yours tos are now my properti

[vale wing]

Those docs passed verification tho so I think there shouldn't be problems

[loud junco]

alright dont mind if i do

no one is going to read that junk tho

[sick birch]

Technically they're supposed to

[vale wing]

If you put those tos to your bot in exactly same form I will be considered the owner of your bot 🤗

Ouch edgy internet causes emotional damage

@loud junco actually you would better edit definitions and stuff about data usage

[loud junco]

i know

and the email KEKW

wtf is going on with your ToS

its too complicated for a 16 yo kiddo like me

[loud junco]

what is this

and why are you mentioning european country

[vale wing]

I didn't write the rest of those tos yk

[loud junco]

lol

[vale wing]

But I read everything with very close attention and cut out everything that would become an issue in certain cases

Like there was "if user paid for something and got damage, they receive as much as they paid, if they didn't pay for anything but still got damaged (idk how the heck), they receive 200$"

[vale wing]

Malaysia is a federation?

There was "Russian Federation" because it's official country name

[loud junco]

oo

[vale wing]

Malaysia is just Malaysia I think?

[loud junco]

yaya

Hey i need your help again:)i have a list with the name red numbers and i want to ask if my varible number is in there and if it is won schould be true how can i do that?

[loud junco]

am i picking the settings right?

[loud junco]

if num in red_num_list:
    won = True

[torn flame]

thanks and i have one more question: i want to filter if a message was witten by a user or by a bot how can i do that?

[loud junco]

filling up the vertification thing is just 💀

i just want to make a bot that let people have fun

can someone explain to me what these 3 thing does

[slate swan]

Simplified = each intent allows your application to do shit related to intent

So message intents allows you to edit delete ect messages

Server member intent allows you interact and mess with servers

It's best turn them all on

[loud junco]

but the reason to apply for them

[loud junco]

i cant think of the reasons

im doing the vertification thing

and how tf am i suppose to answer this question?

i dont give my password to strangers that call me for password

!d discord.Intents read all

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(value=0, **kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

New in version 1.5.

[vale wing]

He's applying for verification lol, he gotta explain what he needs each intent for

[loud junco]

i mean i could need them in the future

so its best if i can apply for all of them now

You can apply for them in the future

You can't apply for what you don't need and can't explain

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

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

Note that you must have [`manage_channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_channels "discord.Permissions.manage_channels") to create the channel.

The `overwrites` parameter can be used to create a ‘secret’ channel upon creation. This parameter expects a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.11)") of overwrites with the target (either a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")) as the key and a [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite") as the value.

Note

Creating a channel of a specified position will not update the position of other channels to follow suit. A follow-up call to [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel.edit "discord.TextChannel.edit") will be required to update the position of the channel in the channel list...

trial and error is the best tutorial

[upbeat gust]

what are you on about

[quick gust]

Why's that so? They can be good if they incentivize people to look for some stuff in their own and explain what the code they're writing does, instead of just writing them and expecting the viewer to copy

[quick gust]

Try to do something and if it doesn't work keep trying

[upbeat gust]

Nearly all of the ones on YouTube are either outdated, use bad practices, or use completely wrong things

[vale wing]

Tutorial is entrypoint, everything further is trial and error, community help and docs

[quick gust]

^^

[upbeat gust]

Yeah sure, for like basically everything, except dpy, simply because all the tutorials are so bad

[vale wing]

Regulars from here are just tired of putting ones who picked wrong entrypoint onto the right path

[upbeat gust]

As am I

[vale wing]

If you are tired of something, automate it

me who literally started with freecodecamp and still doesnt know what is ctx.send after 1 year of bot dev

imagine one day chat gpt can write code

[upbeat gust]

it can though

[loud junco]

like

[naive briar]

It can also be wrong

[loud junco]

it can write any code without mistake

[upbeat gust]

And be very confident about it

Without coding they mean like human will be responding to them like a bot?

[random obsidian]

aw , thank you @bright wedge

[upbeat gust]

Nah you just fork a git repo

[buoyant quail]

**i created a bot with 500 commands 💪 ** be like

I wonder how much useless commands are there, i don't believe in 500 good commands

[vale wing]

If those are slash commands that's beyond discord limit

[vale wing]

!a - send letter "a" in chat
!b - send letter "b" in chat

!e ```py
ph = """@commands.command(name="{name}", description="Send letter {name} in chat")
async def {name}(ctx: commands.Context) -> None:

[buoyant quail]

list of that js bot commands filenames https://paste.pythondiscord.com/zowoyuzeri

[buoyant quail]

also profile, it has like 10 fields and for each field it has separate set and delete command

[slate swan]

I haven't looked but I'd imagine a lot of them just replicate built-in commands/features such as /ban

[rare echo]

welp

[lucid jolt]

was i thought i was in discord.py server

[rare echo]

a quick google search for discord py alias should tell ya

[lucid jolt]

oh thanks

[flint bolt]

hey, im looking to add a ping slash command to my discord bot but it keep showing an error. can anyone help?

@tree.command(name = "ping", description = "Shows latency of bot")
async def ping(interaction: discord.Interaction, latency:str={client.latency * 1000}):
    ping_embed=discord.Embed(title={latency}, color=discord.Colour.og_blurple())
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=ping_embed)

[upbeat otter]

in your parameters definition
you're trying to set the default value of latency to another datatype while the type mentioned for the parameter should be an str

you have to calculate the latency inside the command and not ask the user for it

[flint bolt]

ohh

[upbeat otter]

if the user inputs the latency of the bot, how's that real and gonna be true

[flint bolt]

so i calculate it in the title?

yep alright i think i got it

[upbeat otter]

yeah cool

[flint bolt]

uhhh

[upbeat otter]

you might want to typecast it to an integer or round it off

[flint bolt]

i want to round it

[night crater]

you're wrapping it in a {} fyi

[upbeat otter]

round(client.latency * 1000)
and that ^

[flint bolt]

yeah got it

i'm a bit dumb, i thought its a string lol

[upbeat otter]

it's alright, we all have those days

[flint bolt]

wait, if i want to have text before it, how can i do that?

[upbeat otter]

use an f string preferably

[flint bolt]

alright i forgot

dumb today idk what it is

[upbeat otter]

no comments if you forgot that
hope you have a good day

[flint bolt]

yeah, got it to work, thanks

[slate swan]

Aye, my code works, but I want it to only print the keys found in the found list, not all keys with the value "weak"

    async def hadith(self, ctx, *, message):
        if any(weak for weak in ctx.message.content.split() if weak in narrators.keys()):
            found = ' '.join([str(elem) for elem in narrators.keys()])
            await ctx.send("This is unreliable because of:\n"
                           + found')```

here my json
{"aban": "weak", "aban b. abi ayyash": "weak", "abi ayyash": "weak", "aban ibn abi ayyash": "weak", "\u0623\u0628\u0627\u0646 \u0628\u0646 \u0623\u0628\u064a \u0639\u064a\u0627\u0634": "weak", "\u0628\u064a \u0639\u064a\u0627\u0634": "weak"}

when i do !hadith aban, it gives me all keys with the value, weak

and also, my JSON cant read arabic text

it works with english words, but when I input an arabic word, it doesnt

[oblique sorrel]

In my bot config on the dev portal the checkbox to make my bot not private keeps checking itself back on. I don't want my bot to be able to join other servers. Just my own.

[rare echo]

i mean is that really an issue? you could just on_join leave or not share the bot?

[slate swan]

or not share the bot?

@rare echo You do know that you can easily get authorize links

The syntax is easy d.c/oauth2/authorize?client_id=ID&scope=bot&permissions=8

[rare echo]

hence the on_join leave or if he is saying just his own server, i figured theres a chance its a group of friends

[rare echo]

im well aware lol

[slate swan]

good

but like you can't really "not share it"

if people see a bot that they think is private they are incentivised to try and invite it

[rare echo]

hence the on_join leave

[slate swan]

true

[rare echo]

you are really blowing up a small suggestion lmao

[oblique sorrel]

Yes u can just click the "add this bot to server" link

I want that not to be able

[slate swan]

you mean the button

or the actual link?

[rare echo]

thats why i said on guild join : leave, since idk about the website issue

though on guild join is a jank quickfix kinda way of doing it

[slate swan]

you can turn off "Public Bot" from the dashboard to make it invitable only by you. 🤷‍♂️

[rare echo]

yeah he was having an issue with it swapping automatically

[slate swan]

ic

[rare echo]

which ive never seen ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lucid jolt]

I need help with my discord bot ticket command: #1059837005606957096

[slate swan]

Hey! Can somebody help me to do ticket system in python?

Or something like @novel apex

Aye, when I do !test aban, it sends me the message, but when i do something with spaces, like !test abi ayyash, I get nothing

        found_keys = [weak for weak in message.split() if weak in narrators.keys()]
        nars = ', '.join(found_keys)
        await ctx.send("This is unreliable because of:\n"
                           ++ nars)```

{"aban": "weak", "aban b. abi ayyash": "weak", "abi ayyash": "weak"}

[vocal snow]

because "abi" and "ayyash" aren't keys

you're splitting the message and checking if each word is in the dict

[slate swan]

so I would remove the .split()?

[vocal snow]

then it would check for each character

just check if message is in the dict

what are you trying to do exactly

[slate swan]

if my message contains a key that has value weak, it should then check which keys with value weak is in the message

[vocal snow]

so for "abi ayyash" what output is expected?

[slate swan]

"this is unreliable because of abi ayyash"

[vocal snow]

what about the "aban b. abi ayyash" key

it also contains abi ayyash

[slate swan]

it shouldnt read it then, thats a problem i faced

if i wrote "aban b. abi ayyash" it would send me aban and abi ayyash

although its supposed to be its own key

[vocal snow]

ok so you just want to find exact matches right

[slate swan]

yep

[vocal snow]

so just check if message is in the dict

why do you need list comp

[slate swan]

but that would check if the entire message is in the dict

so if i did like, !command abi ayyash text text, it would check if the text text is also a key

[vocal snow]

yes

why do you have text text there

[slate swan]

i need to check large blocks of text if they contain the specific word

[quick gust]

maybe you could use .find()

[slate swan]

yeah but what would i put as the value? if i put narrators.keys(), it would check if all the keys in the dictionary are in the message

i need it to loop over each key, checking if they are in the message

[vocal snow]

yes

how many keywords do you have

[slate swan]

right now, around 5, but its going to be in the hundreds

i tried something along the lines of this, but it doesnt work

        weak = "weak"
        keys = narrators.keys()
        found = narrators.find(keys)
        if found in ctx.message.content:
            await ctx.send("e")```

[naive briar]

ctx.message.content is the whole content of the message that triggers the command

Why would you add a message argument if you never gonna use it

[slate swan]

yeah, i deleted that, but heres the thing, im trying to make it so

if a key with a specific value is found in the message, it should send the message

im facing two errors:

1. it doesnt work if the key has spaces,
2. if i have a key like "aban b. abi ayyash" which contains another key, it will tell me theres two keys in the entire message, aban and abi ayyash

[slate swan]

can someone help me with my bot when i do the command it sends a embeded message but it is suppose to get edited after and it dosent

[cedar snow]

that's a terrible key then tbh

a key should be one word

[cedar snow]

code?

[slate swan]

What structure should I use instead?

[cedar snow]

narrator is a dict, right?

[slate swan]

Yep

[cedar snow]

your keys should just be one word...

[slate swan]

wait

I have a better idea

I could make it so I force the message to remove all spaces

and have all spaces removed from the keys too

[cedar snow]

that's just bypassing the issue

you're currently facing an xy problem

what's the main goal of your whole command? try to be as specific as possible

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

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

[slate swan]

Check if a block of text contains a key with value “weak”

[cedar snow]

!paste

[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]

If it does, send keys present in text with value “weak”

[cedar snow]

that's easy, since the key doesn't have a space, shouldn't be an issue...

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/fiforifixo

[slate swan]

It does though, I got multiple keys with the value weak

[cedar snow]

lots of issues with this code, but what line are we mainly talking about, line 131?

[tough echo]

does anyone know if its possible to make this menu pop-up using a button in an embed ?

[cedar snow]

ah, you're iterating the wrong way

[tough echo]

I have not found a way yet

[cedar snow]

you should iterate through the key-value pairs, and you're only iterating through the keys...

[upbeat otter]

for key, value in dict.items():
  ...

😳

[shrewd apex]

.items()

[upbeat otter]

my bad

[shrewd apex]

[cedar snow]

weak_value = "weak"
all_keys_with_weak_as_value = []
for key, value in narrators.items():
  if value == weak_value:
    all_keys_with_weak_as_value.append(key)```

[cedar snow]

no idea, sorry
I don't do v2 stuff 🙂

[upbeat otter]

list comps >> 😔

[slate swan]

so basically the message is suppose to get edited and respond with something else after "connecting to api" but it dosent

[cedar snow]

yeah, but this is mainly for educational purposes, if I were to use best practice, he wouldn't understand AND would just blindly copy paste

[upbeat otter]

idts that would be possible by any means

[tough echo]

yea I looked around alot

I dont think its possible

[upbeat otter]

using a list comp is always not efficient
so idts that should be considered in a "best practices"

[cedar snow]

I mean "more readable", but yeah, it's just A way of doing it

[slate swan]

^

[cedar snow]

you're actually just looking for a URL which makes this "screen" pop up, the whole button thing has not much to do with your issue

[cedar snow]

any error handlers?

because you SHOULD get errors, since ctx.respond doesn't exist

also, get_round_data is an async function for no reason
(unless you want to io open your files like you do with all the rest (?)
also time.sleep is blocking, you should asyncio.sleep, .... .... ...

[boreal berry]

does anone know why this doesnt work?

it says that if is an unexpected intent

[tough echo]

yea ofc

[quick gust]

because it is an unexpected indent

[tough echo]

u have more tabs than needed

[upbeat otter]

py-cord wants to know your location

[tough echo]

line 13,14

remove one set of tab from those lines

[boreal berry]

how do I make it an expected intent

[cedar snow]

yeah, I didn't see any pycord imports, so I assumed it was dpy, guess not F

[tough echo]

follow these @boreal berry

[boreal berry]

i have deleted them now

[tough echo]

ok send ss

[upbeat otter]

py-cord uses the same namespace as discord.py so it's imported using import discord too

[cedar snow]

make it lined up with line 11
as you can see, line 13 and line 11 aren't vertically aligned

[cedar snow]

mhm, I see, I'm not using that lib, so Ig mb

[upbeat otter]

nobody sane uses that lib i suppose

[boreal berry]

ok thanks

[cedar snow]

indirect roast

[upbeat otter]

no

py-cord is uwu

[cedar snow]

also, you made a typo in line 11, gl finding it

[tough echo]

still not aligned with "if" statement at line 11 mate

[boreal berry]

yh ive done it now

[quick gust]

pretty direct I'd say

[cedar snow]

error says it all, no?

[boreal berry]

still says this though

[cedar snow]

!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.

[cedar snow]

read this ^

if you're following a YT tutorial, please don't, they're outdated regularly

or, if you just want to get the bot working, type F and I'll give you the lines to edit to make at least your first command "working"

[boreal berry]

ok thanks

i just want to have a bit of fun and make a command work

[slate swan]

im dumb

so im confused

[cedar snow]

Type the following in line 2:

from discord import Intents
intents = Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

and replace the discord.Client()
with discord.Client(intents=intents)

lastly, you should go to the discord dev portal, and enable the "message content" intent (the link the bot already shared)

[cedar snow]

reading the error tells you what's wrong

[boreal berry]

thank you 🙂

[tough echo]

people are too lazy to read huge red walls of text

its sub-concious ig

[cedar snow]

the sad truth

[tough echo]

seems scary to beginners lol

[cedar snow]

right? I guess most beginners get frustrated and want to get at least SOMETHING working before putting in decent effort (like reading 5 sentences)

[slate swan]

i was but i cant figure it out

[cedar snow]

well, do you know at least WHAT line in the error traceback tells you what's wrong? that's a start

or better yet, what Exception was raised 🙂

[slate swan]

no

because im so dumb

[cedar snow]

your error traceback is like 20 lines of "code", shouldn't be that hard to guess what the actual error msg is

[slate swan]

idk ive been looking and i cant find what th eproblem is

[shrewd apex]

just send the error here

copy paste it

[cedar snow]

#discord-bots message

can u show how u the initialisation of u bot

someone help me pls

[slate swan]

you have intents.message_content = True ?

also enabled in dev portal

if so then make sure you have the correct bot token

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(value=0, **kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

New in version 1.5.

[prisma girder]

it works thank you guys

[slate swan]

wait what do i do \im confused

[quick gust]

it literally tells u what to do in plain english

[slate swan]

ik

[quick gust]

consider using ok.edit_original_response

[slate swan]

but when i try to do it it dosent work

[slate swan]

where?

[quick gust]

explain doesnt work

[quick gust]

in place of edit_original_message...

[slate swan]

ohh

[quick gust]

try reading the error?

[slate swan]

ima go try it

[rare echo]

great question

if only there was something i could help with

[cedar snow]

bad luck

[rare echo]

https://pythondiscord.com/pages/resources/guides/asking-good-questions/

[slate swan]

omg now it says this again

[quick gust]

show your file tree

[rare echo]

thats a file not found error

[cedar snow]

he can't even read errors, you're asking for a miracle here

[quick gust]

🗿

[slate swan]

whats wrong with the file

[quick gust]

used to it at this point

[slate swan]

This prints all keys with the value of weak

[rare echo]

send the tree like infernum said

[quick gust]

aaaaaaalright im out

[rare echo]

lmfao

[cedar snow]

have you read the error?

[cedar snow]

correct

[shrewd apex]

from where u copied the code @slate swan ?

[rare echo]

it doesnt have perms

[quick gust]

need a !read-error tag at this point

[slate swan]

I need it to send the keys seen in the message

[rare echo]

or the role isnt high enough

[cedar snow]

then what does "weak" have to do with any of that?

[rare echo]

and a !question

show code

[slate swan]

First it checks if any keys are present in the message, then checks if any of these keys have the var, weak

[quick gust]

1. make sure the bot role is at the top
2. make sure it has admin
   and then come back with your new error if any

[rare echo]

if you are sure its not a perm / hierarchy error then show code

[cedar snow]

why would you check for keys first and then get "weak"? why don't you instantly get "weak"?

[slate swan]

Im going to add other keys which have different values, and it should ignore the keys with other values

[rare echo]

what in the world

[slate swan]

If I had a key with value strong, and this key was in the message, but also a kry with value weak, it should ignore the strong

[craggy sleet]

hello, is there anyway to show people which button they have selected? (this is for role selects)

[cedar snow]

weak_value = "weak"
all_keys_with_weak_as_value = []
for key, value in narrators.items():
  if value == weak_value:
    all_keys_with_weak_as_value.append(key)
  elif <do other shit>

[quick gust]

dont be shy tell us where u copied that from

[rare echo]

weirdest code structure ive ever seen in my life lmao

[cedar snow]

you could maybe send them an ephemeral msg with their newly assigned role?

[craggy sleet]

yeah i have done that, just wanted to know if it was possible

not a big deal

[rare echo]

[quick gust]

!d discord.on_button_click

uh

nvm havent touched dpy in a while

[rare echo]

we need a #I-used-chatGPT-and-dont-know-what-todo

[quick gust]

bro 💀

[shrewd apex]

🗿

[cedar snow]

I mean, how would you "show" people the button they have selected? lol

[craggy sleet]

maybe change the color of the button

rn theyre all gray, so making it blue

[cedar snow]

that would be for everyone, right?

[shrewd apex]

role select dosent have a button

[cedar snow]

unless the role selection is an ephemeral message on itself

[slate swan]

This does the same thing, if I did !test aban, it sends me all keys with value "weak

[shrewd apex]

its a select add a callback

bro no perms give ur bot admin

[cedar snow]

well, you have to fill in the elif with something ofc
don't blindly copy paste

[shrewd apex]

and makw sure u are not trying to kick the owner

or people with same perms and higher role level

[rare echo]

@shrewd apex ooc did you see the hastebin?

[craggy sleet]

well no it isnt, so theres no way to make it only change color for the person interacting with it?

[shrewd apex]

wasnt it the missing perms?

[slate swan]

wait

[cedar snow]

unless it's ephermal, I don't think so
(I've never seen it at least)

[craggy sleet]

ah okay

[shrewd apex]

this is not a role select?

role select is different

[craggy sleet]

i meant a place where you get your roles lol

[shrewd apex]

bro be clear

[craggy sleet]

didnt know role select itself was a thing

[quick gust]

is asher and ash the same person

[rare echo]

like reactionroles right?

and ducks?

[slate swan]

wdym i didnt copy

[quick gust]

@slate swan send ur code again

[shrewd apex]

there is a much easier way to do this u set role id in custom id of button then in callback
put all buttons in an array for loop add callback and add to view

async def callback(inter):
     role_id = int(inter.data["custom_id"])
     # add roles

add callback to button

no need to subclass button lol

[slate swan]

want me to send all the files

[quick gust]

please no im sure one file will give me enough trauma that i wont be able to sleep today

and also send ur file tree

[slate swan]

lol ok

[shrewd apex]

[potent light]

Is there a way to initialize a value in a slash command argument? like:
/test role_id: 41534654648968

[slate swan]

@quick gust

[potent light]

That means data.json wasn't found by open().

[quick gust]

sure? typehint it to discord.Role

[quick gust]

I know you don't know how 95% of that code works

[potent light]

No. I mean use a placeholder on the argument.

[quick gust]

i really suggest u write stuff u know how worls

[quick gust]

sorry I'm a bit outdated with dpy not exactly sure how slash commands work

[potent light]

okok

[shell wing]

I want to make a msg leader board...i need DB for that ? and what all

[potent light]

Yes, you need a database for that.

[shell wing]

anything else ?

[potent light]

A function to store the users progress and a command to show the leaderboard.

[shell wing]

hmm so basically a func to put msg data in a DB and a func to fetch that data and put it in an embed and an auto reset every 30d....

[rare echo]

sounds about right

potentially something to modify values

[shell wing]

gonna be hell of a ride

first time working with db

[potent light]

Yeah. Though, it really depends on the size of the database that you want to aim for. Having the bot to store every message is going to make the database heavy so make sure to just modify the value something like:
user_id messages_count
then when the user sends a message just make an increment in the messages_count for that specific user.

[rare echo]

its not that bad

[shell wing]

its for my own server only though 1.8k and growing

[rare echo]

still should use a counter over the actual messages

[potent light]

1.8k members?

[rare echo]

makes more sense

[shell wing]

yea

small server

[shell wing]

message_counter() ?

[potent light]

1.8k isn't small.

[rare echo]

just tie a number to a user, and increment it

[shell wing]

ok assuming half of the members message in a month and quarter message daily

[cold sonnet]

450 people message daily?

Hello!

How can I check if a button is pressed in a Discord UI View using / commands?

[slate swan]

Explain further?

[rustic edge]

I have this UI view shop menu

ANd I have buttons at the bottom of it.

I want to run something specific on the press of one of the buttons.

For example, I have two buttons, A and B. When A is pressed I want to execute the function foo() and when B is pressed I want to execute the function bar()

And all I want to know is how to detect the button press.

[cold sonnet]

button callbacks

!d discord.ui.Button.callback

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button.callback

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

The callback associated with this UI item.

This can be overridden by subclasses.

[slate swan]

^ perfect

[rustic edge]

ty

❤️

[cold sonnet]

you override this and it's called when it's pressed

[slate swan]

For example if button is called btn you would do

    await inter.response.send_message("hi")

btn.callback = callback_btn```

[idle radish]

what is the right way to let only a specific role do a command

[fading marlin]

depends on the type of command

I mean, you'd still use a check, but the namespace differs

[idle radish]

client.command

[fading marlin]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_any_role or has_role depending on what you need

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_any\_role

@discord.ext.commands.has_any_role(*items)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has **any** of the roles specified. This means that if they have one out of the three roles specified, then this check will return `True`.

Similar to [`has_role()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.has_role "discord.ext.commands.has_role"), the names or IDs passed in must be exact.

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

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

how can i make a basic dropdown on a message

[fading marlin]

[idle radish]

thanks

[oblique fern]

Could I get someone to test some multiplayer game commands on my discord bot? ping or message me thanks.

[sick birch]

This is the job of unittesting / integration testing :)

[cloud dawn]

Make the bot play, if it works with the bot it will work with other people.

[sick birch]

!d unittest

[unkempt canyon]

unittest

Source code: Lib/unittest/__init__.py

(If you are already familiar with the basic concepts of testing, you might want to skip to the list of assert methods.)

The unittest unit testing framework was originally inspired by JUnit and has a similar flavor as major unit testing frameworks in other languages. It supports test automation, sharing of setup and shutdown code for tests, aggregation of tests into collections, and independence of the tests from the reporting framework.

To achieve this, unittest supports some important concepts in an object-oriented way:

Similar names: pytest.unittest

[oblique fern]

hmm, I was responding to this agreeing that while tests for code are great and serve a wonderful purpose there as some aspects that are just impractical for some situations. but I got to thinking a bit and I can see how it would be possible to write a test for this. not saying it sounds fun though...

I could try to simulate some fake inputs and have it get straight to the function I need but this is such a small project and I add so many "complicated-to-test" things every day it just seems a bit impractical to write a test for everything yet.

idk, i'll bite the bullet eventually.

[frail notch]

ty

[frail notch]

could you help me out real quick? I'm a bit confused

Why does this code not work? ```py
async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
# await interaction.response.send_message(f'Your favourite colour is {self.values[0]}')
await interaction.response.send_message(f'Creating a ticket for {self.label}', ephemeral=True)

{self.label}

[fading marlin]

looks good to me

[frail notch]

self.label should show the label that the user clicked right?

[fading marlin]

no

[frail notch]

Oh.. how would I do that?

[fading marlin]

you can get that from interaction.data or self.values[0]

[frail notch]

oh alright

[slate swan]

interaction.data['values'][0]

[frail notch]

and how can i create a channel in a specific category depending on the choice made?

[fading marlin]

!d discord.CategoryChannel.create_text_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.CategoryChannel.create\_text\_channel

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

A shortcut method to [`Guild.create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel "discord.Guild.create_text_channel") to create a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") in the category.

[fading marlin]

or pass in a category kwarg to Guild.create_channel

[frail notch]

        # Set the options that will be presented inside the dropdown
        options = [
            discord.SelectOption(label='General Support', description='Support ticket regarding ingame information or general information about the server.', emoji=':closed_lock_with_key:'),
            discord.SelectOption(label='Report Staff / Department', description='Seen a member of staff or from a department abusing perms or breaking rules? Report it here!', emoji=':lock:'),
            # discord.SelectOption(label='Store Issues', description='Your favourite colour is blue', emoji=':blue_square:'),
        ]

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

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        # await interaction.response.send_message(f'Your favourite colour is {self.values[0]}')
        await interaction.response.send_message(f'Creating a ticket for {self.values[0]}', ephemeral=True)

Because there is a different category for each option

[vale wing]

Screw callbacks we use GenericView

That's such a good custom class

Don't mind me

Hi I need some help to figure out how to move my bot from AWS EC2 to lambda, has anyone tried it before ?
I just can't figure out how the bot will be active 24/7 if the lambda is only active when there requests

[sick birch]

Why do you need to move it?

I don't think AWS Lambda is built for discord bots

[cerulean lichen]

I want to terminate the EC2, to lower the costs

Also have telegram one I will move

[sick birch]

I run my bots and sites on EC2
Lambda is not built for this sort of thing

You can try out Lightsail if you want cheaper prices

[cerulean lichen]

I only run like couple bots on "free" instance and I end up with 5-10$ every month

It's not much but when added up its something I'd like to lower as much as possible

[cloud dawn]

#965291480992321536

[sick birch]

Give Lightsail a try then 🙂

The lowest option is only $3/month

[cloud dawn]

Just get a good host

[cerulean lichen]

Thanks I'll take a look

[cerulean ibex]

What's the best YT tut for the latest discord.py ?
what do you guys recommend ?

[cloud dawn]

Slash or message commands?

[cerulean ibex]

Slash

[sick birch]

I recommend documentation: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/
And examples: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples

[cloud dawn]

My favorite YT video tbh

[sick birch]

I like to stare at documentation with a bucket of popcorn 🍿

[cloud dawn]

It's very long page so you can use middle mouse button to scroll very slowly to relax in chair.

[shrewd apex]

read in dark mode

[sick birch]

Truly a pinnacle of the 21st century entertainment industry

[cerulean ibex]

[cloud dawn]

But in all seriousness there isn't a slash commands video that I'd recommend. So many mistakes.

It pains me to say this, but if you want a good tutorial on slash command, use discord.js -> https://discordjs.guide much friendlier (except the syntax).

[vale wing]

noOooOOo

[shrewd apex]

traitor

[cloud dawn]

Not my fault their guide is more clearer and better, just don't ask questions in their Discord server, they'll skin you alive.

[fading marlin]

you could probably join the dpy server too, you'll find a lot of useful resources there too

[exotic maple]

how do i add options for arguments in a slash command?

I want there to be the options for all the ids im storing that is linked to the guild the command is executed

i would very appreciate some help

[fading marlin]

an autocomplete is probably your best choice here

[exotic maple]

can you send any documentation that is linked to autocomplete? thanks

[fading marlin]

!d discord.app_commands.autocomplete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.autocomplete

@discord.app_commands.autocomplete(**parameters)```
Associates the given parameters with the given autocomplete callback.

Autocomplete is only supported on types that have [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.11)"), [`int`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.11)"), or [`float`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float "(in Python v3.11)") values.

[`Checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check "discord.app_commands.check") are supported, however they must be attached to the autocomplete callback in order to work. Checks attached to the command are ignored when invoking the autocomplete callback.

For more information, see the [`Command.autocomplete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Command.autocomplete "discord.app_commands.Command.autocomplete") documentation.

Warning

The choices returned from this coroutine are suggestions. The user may ignore them and input their own value...

[fading marlin]

!d discord.app_commands.Command.autocomplete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Command.autocomplete

@autocomplete(name)```
A decorator that registers a coroutine as an autocomplete prompt for a parameter.

The coroutine callback must have 2 parameters, the [`Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction"), and the current value by the user (the string currently being typed by the user).

To get the values from other parameters that may be filled in, accessing [`Interaction.namespace`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction.namespace "discord.Interaction.namespace") will give a [`Namespace`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Namespace "discord.app_commands.Namespace") object with those values.

Parent [`checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check "discord.app_commands.check") are ignored within an autocomplete. However, checks can be added to the autocomplete callback and the ones added will be called. If the checks fail for any reason then an empty list is sent as the interaction response.

The coroutine decorator **must** return a list of [`Choice`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Choice "discord.app_commands.Choice") objects. Only up to 25 objects are supported.

[polar cargo]

Can you tell me what's not "working"? Are you getting a error?

try adding a print inside the callback function and see if your command even gets executed

[mental hollow]

hey

so I want to log when a user gets a role using on_member_update

I’m aware I can use an if condition to detect if the update was a role change using if before.roles != after.roles

however, I’m unsure on how to get the exact role & say if it was added/removed

if anyone replies, please ping me!

[rare echo]

could check on update, if the amount of before.roles < after and then just check which role was in after that wasnt in before

unless you are trying to check if only a certain role was changed / added you can just check the role id difference

[torn sail]

You could convert the before roles to a set and the after roles to another set. There are operations for finding the differences within 2 sets. I forgot what they are tho

[rare echo]

i mean you could

if len(before.roles) < len(after.roles)
    role_added = next(role for role in after.roles if role not in before.roles)

seeing as you have member obj

[spring summit]

how would i make a command that displays the total amount of messages in a specific channel

[potent spear]

you'd make a command which takes a channel mention as arg (use typehinting)
that way, it's pretty user-friendly
once you have that, your next question would be "how to count the total amount of msgs in a given text channel?"

[torn sail]

You could but I think that would be slower. Doesn’t matter too much tho

[potent spear]

~intersect

only thing which looks "redundant" to me is that if you'd somehow have 2 differences (which isn't really possible), you'd have more than one role returned

[cerulean lichen]

anyone tried to send the same file twice using webhooks, but the second server gets blank file ?

[golden portal]

did you use the same discord.File object?

if not, did you use bytesobject.seek(0)

[shut elk]

Hi, I have a bot and it has a few slash commands, using tree commands and interactions per usual and everything worked out for one day, although it had interaction acknowledged and unknown interaction errors, it still worked. But after that one day, exactly one day after, all but one slash command have all disappeared and that one slash command is the only one that shows in the integrations. Also, all buttons that already existed are working and that one slash command also works. I'm wondering why all commands disappeared and how to fix it without restarting the program, like if it is due to the interaction errors? If you want to see my code, I can show it but it's very long. Also, I don't want to restart the program since it is running already with data and if I reset it will reset the variables too. I could just fix the interaction issues for future reference if it is because of that if that is the problem

[drifting arrow]

how can I limit a slash command to specific users or roles?

I'm currently doing @app_commands.checks.has_permissions(administrator=True) is there one for "has role"? or "role id? or something?

[potent spear]

have you checked the docs? 😉

[drifting arrow]

Nope coz #lazy

hoping to get a faster response here 😛

[shut elk]

You can do this:

roleVar = interaction.guild.get_role(roleid)

if roleVar in interaction.user.roles:

....

else:
....

[potent spear]

ah, so we should do it for you? 🪦

[potent spear]

that's not a decorator though

[drifting arrow]

You should consider moving those "variables" and other stuff stored in memory to a json file, or even a proper sqlite database.

[shut elk]

well if it's inside the slash cmd

[shut elk]

prolly

[drifting arrow]

Inside a slash command is easy enough to do.

[shut elk]

yeah

[drifting arrow]

I wanted the decorator.

[shut elk]

alr

just read the docs then

[drifting arrow]

To the documentation!

[shut elk]

lmao

[shut elk]

but I ran out of time to make that in time of my event, so I just went with the way I did, and now I am stuck I can't even fix the error 😭

[potent spear]

let me visualize this

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/381963689470984203/426132069677137920/heyitworks.mp4

[drifting arrow]

lol

[drifting arrow]

Lets do a few checks before you need to reset your bot.

Are all the commands unique and the functions attached to them unique?
Has the permissions for the commands changed?

Did your bot or discord server go offline for whatever reason?

[potent spear]

I'd just suggest a !paste and in a quick glance, you can probably spot the issue

[drifting arrow]

probably

but he said it was big, long and tedious. and Im not in the mood for anything big and long

[potent spear]

I read that wrong

[drifting arrow]

I know 😉 it was on purpose

[potent spear]

anyways, if that's his case, he should work with cogs

[drifting arrow]

I assumed he was working with cogs

[potent spear]

because if it's "complex" according to him, he should at least be able to refactor

[lucid jolt]

can someone help me in #1059981623854108712 I used a list to try to check if they already have a ticket open but its not working and i dont know why

[shut elk]

1. yes
2. nope
3. no

[shut elk]

its not THAT long

only like 370

[shut elk]

i mean it might just be due to the interaction errors which i can easily fix or someth else that i dont know, prolly wouldn't be too complex

Where do you define raw_clan_data before raw_clan_data = await bot.db.clans.find(raw_clan_data)?

[slate swan]

i got it i think

  File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 343, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/container/bot_base/bot.py", line 118, in on_command_error
    raise error
  File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 85, in wrapped
    ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/container/bot.py", line 165, in clans
    raw_clans = await bot.db.clans.find(raw_clan_data)
NameError: name 'raw_clan_data' is not defined```

[hollow agate]

raw_clan_data isn't defined anywhere, it cannot find(it)

[naive briar]

Imagine

[indigo pilot]

is there any way to get the author of the orgioanl message?

[indigo pilot]

example

[indigo pilot]

so getting the author of the orgional message, from this reply

[hollow agate]

Using what?

[naive briar]

!d discord.Message.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.author

A Member that sent the message. If channel is a private channel or the user has the left the guild, then it is a User instead.

[hollow agate]

oh my lord, I keep thinking they're doing something else

[indigo pilot]

that would be the author of 1060028265651261500?

not 1060028200069115924

[naive briar]

Author of the message

What do you think it is

[indigo pilot]

???

[indigo pilot]

message.author = this author

[indigo pilot]

not this

its a reply

[naive briar]

What???

[indigo pilot]

???

what is there to not understand 😭

[hollow agate]

Everything... ?

[indigo pilot]

even gave a example

[naive briar]

I give up

[indigo pilot]

the original message

it used to be original_message

back in the old days

[hollow agate]

For slash commands?

[indigo pilot]

but its been edited and i got no clue what it is no

[indigo pilot]

no?? replies

[hollow agate]

You want to find the author of me, right?

[indigo pilot]

yes

[indigo pilot]

from this message tho

[indigo pilot]

message.author returns me 🧍

[hollow agate]

eek, I don't remember how to do it, one sec

[torn sail]

!d discord.Message.reference

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reference

The message that this message references. This is only applicable to messages of type MessageType.pins_add, crossposted messages created by a followed channel integration, or message replies.

New in version 1.5.

[hollow agate]

ah yeah

[indigo pilot]

ty

[torn sail]

Then from their you can use cached_message.author

[indigo pilot]

sounds like more work

ill just ping the user in the msg ig then get message.mentions lmfaoo

[torn sail]

Lmao ok

[naive briar]

That's not any less thing to do

[indigo pilot]

yeah all you do is message.mentions[0] if i remember

[slate swan]

async def clans(ctx):
    raw_clan_data = await bot.db.clans.get_all()
    raw_clans = await bot.db.clans.find(raw_clan_data)
    guild = await bot.get_or_fetch_guild(bot.guild_id)
    total_clans = []
    for field in raw_clans:
        clan_tag = await bot.db.clans.find(clan_tag.lower())
    total_clans.append(clan_tag)
    clans_formatted = "\n".join([entry['clan_tag'] for entry in total_clans])
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f'{bot.server_name} Total Clans',
                            description=f'{clans_formatted}',
                            color=discord.Color.random()
                        )
    embed.set_footer(text=bot.server_name)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

now its defined

[naive briar]

It will get all member mentions in the message 🤷

[indigo pilot]

[0]

[naive briar]

The .MENTIONS will get all member mentions in the message

[indigo pilot]

yeah ik

the msg is sent from the bot

[zealous jay]

How do I check for permissions? Im using discord.py 2.0

commands.has_permissions doesn't work, right?

[sick birch]

Why not?

Are you looking for slash command permissions?

[zealous jay]

yeah its with app_commands.checks.has_permissions

[sick birch]

That's the slash command alternative yeah

[zealous jay]

for slash commands

[zealous jay]

How do I delete a global command?

It doesn't even exists anymore

[shut elk]

ok

[shut elk]

OHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I just copied and pasted the functions 😭 i forgot, thought it was the self's in classes forgot they were functions 😢 that's why only the first one works too

thank you !

[light violet]

i am getting this error

File "<fstring>", line 1
(default 5 msg)

[upbeat otter]

yes very elaborate

[light violet]

how to fix

[upbeat otter]

share the whole traceback (whatever appears in the terminal)

[light violet]

only this line

no traceback

[upbeat otter]

huh

screenshot

[vale wing]

Is your code short enough to share

If so do that please

[light violet]

no need now i fixed it

thanks

[flint bolt]

[upbeat otter]

"working" doesn't specify the issue you're facing

what part

[somber imp]

Use parameterized queries. You are sooo exposed to SQL injection rn

[upbeat otter]

and you might want to change the function names 💀

[somber imp]

Also, use member id instead of member mention

[somber imp]

Oh right that's the cause of the issue

[upbeat otter]

and sqlite3 😔

[somber imp]

🥲

Use aiosqlite if you want to use sqlite

[flint bolt]

i only just started learning the thing oh my fucking god

[flint bolt]

it half broke

[somber imp]

Oh lol. But you should still use the safe way of doing it

[somber imp]

How-

[flint bolt]

i dont know lol

i tried doing it and it just didnt work

i wish someone explained it in a concise and understandable manner not in a youtube tutorial from a 10 year old kid that doesnt show half the code from FOUR YEARS AGO

[somber imp]

💀

Tbh aiosqlite hasn't changed any significantly. So 4-5 year old videos aren't inaccurate

[bright wedge]

await interaction.response.send_message(rows)

and use async sqlite framework

!pip aiosqlite (for sqlite3)

[unkempt canyon]

aiosqlite v0.18.0

asyncio bridge to the standard sqlite3 module

[pulsar bridge]

Probably something stupid that I've missed

[naive briar]

Are you using aiofiles

[pulsar bridge]

Nope, just the inbuilt file handling

Should I?

[viral stump]

print("Eğer " + str(random_int) "sayısı, " + str(percentage * 100) " sayısından düşükse hedef belirlenir.")

SyntaxError: invalid syntax. Perhaps you forgot a comma?

[pulsar bridge]

You're missing a +

[viral stump]

oh fuck

[pulsar bridge]

No wait

It's an f string, why do you have pluses?

[naive briar]

Why would you use f-string if you're using + operator

[viral stump]

nah, i pasted f one sorry

there is no f on code, i pasted wrong one sorry

[pulsar bridge]

print(f'Eger {str(random_int)} say151 {str(percentage * 100)} sayısından düşükse hedef belirlenir.')

Would work

or

print("Eğer " + str(random_int) + "sayısı, " + str(percentage * 100) + " sayısından düşükse hedef belirlenir.")

[pulsar bridge]

Anyway,
Should I be using this?

The default file handling was working for me before...

[viral stump]

thank youu

[upbeat otter]

both will work, the first one is just recommended

and you don't actually need to typecast anything to str in an f-string, everything is automatically converted to an str

[pulsar bridge]

Good to know

[upbeat otter]

you should aiofiles since open blocks the bot while it is opening a file but aiofiles.open is asynchronous so it doesn't

it's as easy as

import aiofiles

async with aiofiles.open("filename.extension", "r") as f:
  content = await f.read()

you can install aiofiles using python -m pip install aiofiles

[pulsar bridge]

Two steps ahead of you already!
But thanks for the reply!
Two questions though
Would this work?

if proceed == 1:
        try:
            async with aif.open(file_name, 'xt') as f:
                file = f
            proceed = 2
        except:
            await ctx.send(f'Something went wrong with creating the file! What probably happened is that a file named {title} already exists!')
    if proceed == 2:
        try:
            file.write(text)
            file.close()
            proceed = 3
        except:
            await ctx.send(f'Something went wrong when attempting to write to the file named {title}!')

2nd Question, what does the python -m part do when installing libraries?

[upbeat otter]

python -m just runs pip as a module iirc

and

[pulsar bridge]

ahhh, gotcha

[upbeat otter]

you need to await every action on the file

await file.write
await file.close
etc

[pulsar bridge]

ah Hah! That's what I was missing!
Thanks!

[upbeat otter]

and I do think you forgot to read the file

[shrewd apex]

[pulsar bridge]

perhaps

[viral stump]

                idlist = await bot.fetch_user(victim_user_id)
                chance = (percentage * 100)
                await message.channel.send(f"{idlist.display_name} ve %{chance}")````
Everything is working fine but chance's output is being like:
``%50.0`` but i want it ``%50``

How can i do it?

[golden portal]

%{chance:.0f} or just cast chance to int

better to round it actually

[naive briar]

!d round

[unkempt canyon]

round

round(number, ndigits=None)```
Return *number* rounded to *ndigits* precision after the decimal point. If *ndigits* is omitted or is `None`, it returns the nearest integer to its input.

For the built-in types supporting [`round()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#round "round"), values are rounded to the closest multiple of 10 to the power minus *ndigits*; if two multiples are equally close, rounding is done toward the even choice (so, for example, both `round(0.5)` and `round(-0.5)` are `0`, and `round(1.5)` is `2`). Any integer value is valid for *ndigits* (positive, zero, or negative). The return value is an integer if *ndigits* is omitted or `None`. Otherwise, the return value has the same type as *number*.

For a general Python object `number`, `round` delegates to `number.__round__`.

[viral stump]

Thank you, string format worked well

Can i do output in like this code line?
