[shut elk]

um

[vale wing]

@shut elk so in your subclass add an attribute user_id and check if the interaction author's ID is the same

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, user_id: int):
        super().__init__(...)
        self.user_id = user_id

    async def interaction_check(self, interaction: discord.Interaction) -> bool:
        if interaction.user.id == self.user.id:
            return True
        await interaction.response.send_message("This button is not for you", ephemeral=True)
        return False

[shut elk]

oh 🤦‍♂️

im dumb sorry thanks 😭

[fair magnet]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from snipes3 import scrape_snipes

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

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='?', intents=intents, help_command=None)

@bot.command()
async def snipes(ctx, *args):
    # Delete command message
    

    # Validate args
    if len(args) < 1:
        msg = await ctx.send("Invalid arguments. Please use the following format: `snipes <ID>`")
        await asyncio.sleep(5)
        await msg.delete()
        return

    msg1 = await ctx.send("Scraping stock...")

    # Scrape stock
    sku = args[0]
    embed = scrape_snipes(SKU=sku)

    if embed != None:
        await msg1.edit(content="", embed=embed)
    else:
        msg = await msg1.edit(content="An error occured. Please try again later.")
        
        # Sleep for 5 seconds and delete message
        await asyncio.sleep(5)
        await msg.delete()

bot.run``` so i have two files snipes3.py and this in my snipes3.py file i have a input where you put the product id you need to scrape but if i use the command my bot is not passing it to my function why ?

[shut elk]

hold up, if there is gonna be a parameter added user_id, then that means it would require a parameter when doing the view thing... That means I can only do interaction id for the user before that, not the first one that clicked right

or am i missing something

[vale wing]

It is the ID of the user that is supposed to press that button

[shut elk]

it gives an error because I do view = myView() for example

it says error for the user_id not being provided

so like am i supposed to do myView(id) but that only does the previous one that creates the button

[vale wing]

You can do logic you need by yourself

I don't quite understand who's supposed to press that button

[shut elk]

Ok, so the person who presses the button, the user_id parameter should be that

but right now, it gives an error of positional arguments not being given since there is an extra parameter, so how is that going to be the user_id of the person who presses the button, if you have to provide the parameter when creating the button

I have a command that creates the button and uses the view, using view = myView(), and in the button function, if I click a button it should create another one

[vale wing]

Because it's the ID of user who is supposed to press the button, the user who actually presses the button is in interaction_check()

[shut elk]

yeah, but I want to check if the person who presses the button is the first person that presses the button and if you are not, then return the call

there is no one that is supposed to press the button, anyone can

[vale wing]

A wait I misunderstood your question

[shut elk]

ok

[vale wing]

!d discord.ui.View.stop just this

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.stop

stop()```
Stops listening to interaction events from this view.

This operation cannot be undone.

[shut elk]

mk

[shut elk]

i did it, but it still allows others

hold up

wrong testing channel

[vale wing]

You said "anyone can press the button"

[shut elk]

yeah, it works thank u so much

i tested the wrong channel

[icy meadow]

Hello,I'm trying to import a Button class from my bot to another file function (it's not cog file),I need to load it somehow before I import it?

[upbeat otter]

huh no?

[slate swan]

why do people ask this question so much

I've see the same one for like 4 times in this channel

tho it doesn't make sense

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/868182128943308831/1064566296341127308/image.png?width=960&height=365

how to make more than one response as ephemeral

the same message have to be ephemeral for more than one member

which library

[slate swan]

ephemeral messages are invisible for everyone except for the interaction author

you cannot control it

check pins in this channel, 3rd message

[slate swan]

but this message is visible for 2 members now

if you'll send in channel it won't be ephemeral
only responses can be ephemeral

[slate swan]

so how the picture's bot does it ?

it should be visible only to you

if someone else is seeing it they did the same thing as you did

no it's a vote message , which is visible to a team

which one? the 1st 2nd or 3rd message

the third

what do you think the message means by "Only you can see this" below the buttons

[slate swan]

irdk

noone other than you can see that

the other uses probably used the same cmd as you...

[slate swan]

okay , can i ask another question

ofcourse

is it possible to 'response' many times to the same interaction ?

you can use follups

*followups

cool

!d discord.Interaction.followup

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.followup

Returns the follow up webhook for follow up interactions.

[slate swan]

i know thank you

[slate swan]

how to delete the first followup used by the interaction ?

delete_original_response ?

i guess, im not too familiar with discord.py interaction system

:/

[heady coyote]

is there a way to use command buy_q ? I tried this and didnt work

from .buy import buy_q is init.py file

[slate swan]

hello i need help please

i cant import app_commands

@bot.command() async def on_guild_channel_create(channel): # Code.. if not u != guild.owner and not u.id in wl_list: await print("PM-Beta: (Анти краш)Создание каналов") await channel.delete()
Bot ignores

[heady coyote]

somebody?

[cloud dawn]

From where?

[heady coyote]

from buy.py

we can go pv to explain it better

[cloud dawn]

1. Show the file structure and what file you execute to start the program.

2. What file do you want to import?

3. Where are you importing from?

[cold sonnet]

I think he showed all that

[heady coyote]

yes

[cloud dawn]

So you are executing buy to run the program?

[heady coyote]

bot.py

[heady coyote]

to run

[cloud dawn]

So you didn't show nr1

[cold sonnet]

maybe not all of it

[heady coyote]

?

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

It looks like you tried to attach a Python file - please use a code-pasting service such as https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[slate swan]

fixed it

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/xomuxudofu

[heady coyote]

the command is good when i put into bot.py file bot when i import it doesnt show

[cloud dawn]

Hence these questions, unfortunately I'm not a wizard and don't want to guess your file structure.

[heady coyote]

Pv bro

I sent you everything you need

[cloud dawn]

Right-

[heady coyote]

i got this

i had to client.tree.add_command(buy_q)

[tired notch]

is it possible to supply more information to a discord button callback? i am trying to make a list of embeds and a button that will edit the embed to the next embed in the list

[slate swan]

subclass view and override the init to provide extra arguments and attributes

[tired notch]

ah, thanks

[autumn helm]

How can I make that this checkmark doesn't appear and you can use the same option twice?

[limpid otter]

Is it possible to take the distance of selected cities using aiohttp from the site?

[hushed galleon]

iirc this is some weird limitation with select menus on desktop, they just dont let you select the same option twice, but on mobile you can

[upper root]

Hello guys is it normal that I have created a slash command and it prompt the user to enter a suit of number like 012345 but when i print my variable that I ask the user to fill. It do not show the 0

[potent spear]

mhm

!e

int shit = 0125
print(shit)```

[unkempt canyon]

@potent spear :x: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 1.

[upper root]

you see?

@client.tree.command(name="math", description="math")

    print(pid)
    pidss = str(0) + pid
    print(pidss)
    math_url = f".."
    response = req.get(math_url)
    product = response.json()
    await itr.response.send_message(math_url)

[potent spear]

well, the answer to your question is yes...

that's how python works...

[rare echo]

why would you need that zero though

[upper root]

so how can i do to add A 0 the number the person is using

[potent spear]

make it a string I guess

[upper root]

its for a request that I do, I didn't put the url

[upper root]

wym?

[potent spear]

string shit = "0125"

an int with a leading 0 is not an octal number...

[upper root]

@potent spear I finally did that pid = format(pid, '08d') was easier tbh

[potent spear]

that's one way

[jaunty hare]

hi! someone can help me to fix this error?

[blazing condor]

you will need to check the code and ensure that the 'Button' object is being used correctly, and not being called as a function or method.

with the code i could be able to assist u better

[jaunty hare]

yeh give me a sec

[slate swan]

@discord.ui.button with a lower-case b to create a new button object. Also your params should be self, interaction, button in that order I think.

[jaunty hare]

thnak u bro

like this i guess

[shrewd apex]

replace the = with :

someone
Please help me with the error

[jaunty hare]

[blazing condor]

Check that discord_slash module is installed or in the correct location for it to find it

[slate swan]

can i dm you?

[blazing condor]

added

[tired notch]

in discord.py how do i make so someone can only enter a certain range of numbers or only some certain strings as options for a command

[blazing condor]

you can use the ***commands.Check() *** decorator to check the input of a command and determine whether it meets certain conditions.

check that the input is a number within a certain range, you can use the isnumeric() method and check if it is within the range.

[tired notch]

[slate swan]

hey i mistakely add my test application on discord developer badge soo how i switch to my main bot
😢

[blazing condor]

going to the Discord Developer Portal, selecting the "Applications" section, and then selecting the test application. From there, you should be able to remove it from your developer badge. Once that is done, you can then add your main bot to the developer badge.

[slate swan]

but there's a problem i deleted the test application too

from developer portal

[blazing condor]

you will need to create a new application for your main bot and add it to your developer badge in order to use it.

[slate swan]

i alr have my main bot but when i use application command it show

and when i go to that link it say i already claimed my badge

[blazing condor]

then you should contact discord support for further help.

as that is out of my reach at that point

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

np ty for your suggestion

[blazing condor]

?

[blazing condor]

u legit just posted that someone will respond, why can't u just talk about it here

@open vapor

[open vapor]

cuz my problem is weird but I'll try to explain it.
I did pip install discord but when I tried to run the program it did this

[blazing condor]

send your code in chat brother it helps me

TOKEN = 'my token is here but i will not show it '
client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'{client.user}is now running!')


 client.run(TOKEN)

and there's another code that is not related

@blazing condor ?

[blazing condor]

import discord

def run_discord_bot():
    TOKEN = 'my token is here but i will not show it '
    client = discord.Client()

    @client.event
    async def on_ready():
        print(f'{client.user}is now running!')

    client.run(TOKEN)

if __name__ == '__main__':
  run_discord_bot()

You put the if statement in the wrong place, used the wrong name in it, didn't import the module before calling the function, and didn't indent the last line properly.

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/hifogicoyo
This is a button view that I call using a command, but when I call the button, I want it so that only one person can press the button at a time. Although I am making the button disabled, it loads too slow and allows time for multiple people to press the button and enter the code. I am wondering how I can prevent this from happening, since I cannot really do anything with the init, and everything has to be done within this button function. I tried 3 ways: button disable, self.stop(), and using the list append checking if the interaction user id was the first in the list. However, all these methods failed to work and still, multiple people are able to press the button at the same time. Please let me know (with a ping) how I can potentially fix this problem, thanks!

[upbeat gust]

What's that supposed to be?

[upbeat gust]

How to show emotions for robots:
Custom emotes are represented internally in the following format:
<:name:id>
Where the name is the name of the custom emote, and the ID is the id of the custom emote.
For example, :python3: is the name:id for :python3:

When sending standard unicode/discord emojis, you just send the unicode character. This is handled differently from language to language, but in python, you can send \N{NAME}, the codepoint, \uFFFF, or just the unicode char itself: 🇦 You can get info on this by using the ?charinfo command

You can quickly obtain the <:name:id> format by putting a backslash in front of the custom emoji when you put it in your client.
Example: \:python3: would give you the <:name:id> format.

When adding reactions, you can either send the unicode for standard emojis, or send name:id, not <:name:id> for custom emojis.
New in 1.1.0 You can use <:name:id>

Animated emojis are the same as above but have an a before the name- ie: <a:name:id>

[wide whale]

ah, need an a
makes sense why it didn't work

danke

[shut elk]

how do you install schedule module?

Like where in visual studio code

[naive briar]

!d discord.Interaction.user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.user

The user or member that sent the interaction.

[naive briar]

Why

discord.py already has tasks extension

[shut elk]

where

or like what is it

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

@discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[shut elk]

how would i stop this loop

like what if i only wanted it to schedule once

[ionic garden]

so i've this function here:

    @commands.hybrid_command(brief="Mock the bot's creator.")
    async def birb(self, ctx: commands.Context, stuff: str = "1 + 1 = 3"):
        """Mock the bot's creator."""
        a_id = ctx.message.author.id
        img = Image.open("resources/img/birb_logic.png")
        draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
        font = ImageFont.truetype("resources/fonts/whitneysemibold.ttf", 12)
        draw.text((64, 28), stuff, (200, 200, 200), font=font)
        img.save(f"resources/img/{a_id}.png")
        await ctx.send(file=discord.File(f"resources/img/{a_id}.png"))
        os.remove(f"resources/img/{a_id}.png")
```and right now the problem is at the end, with `os.remove`
windows is telling me it's used by another process whenever i try to call the command
but idk what process could be using it?

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop.stop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop.stop

stop()```
Gracefully stops the task from running.

Unlike [`cancel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop.cancel "discord.ext.tasks.Loop.cancel"), this allows the task to finish its current iteration before gracefully exiting.

Note

If the internal function raises an error that can be handled before finishing then it will retry until it succeeds.

If this is undesirable, either remove the error handling before stopping via [`clear_exception_types()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop.clear_exception_types "discord.ext.tasks.Loop.clear_exception_types") or use [`cancel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop.cancel "discord.ext.tasks.Loop.cancel") instead.

Changed in version 2.0: Calling this method in [`before_loop()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop.before_loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop.before_loop") will stop the loop before the initial iteration is run...

[naive briar]

Requires minimum effort of research

[naive briar]

You can save the edited image as io.BytesIO buffer so you don't have to save it as file btw

[ionic garden]

could you elaborate?

[naive briar]

Since the discord.File's fp argument can be a bytes-like object, you can use something like io.BytesIO buffer to create an instance from it.

# assuming that you've already edited the image
buffer = io.BytesIO()
image.save(buffer, format="PNG") # save/write the image data to the buffer
buffer.seek(0)

file = discord.File(fp=buffer, filename="out.png") # use the buffer to create a file instance
await ctx.send(file=file)

[ionic garden]

uh

what does buffer.seek(0) do?

and should i preferably use with, given that it's a file context?

[shut elk]

@naive briar

[naive briar]

Change the bytes stream position; after the image was saved, the stream position is changed to the end of the bytes that were saved or written, and you need to seek back to the start of the buffer to read the data that was saved or written.

!e

import io

buffer = io.BytesIO()

buffer.write(b"Cat")
buffer.write(b"Meow")

print(buffer.read()) # <-- returns "None"

buffer.seek(0) # seek back to the beginning
print(buffer.read())

[unkempt canyon]

@naive briar :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | b''
002 | b'CatMeow'

[shut elk]

ok

[ionic garden]

.

[shut elk]

oh wait nvm i didnt import tasks 💀

[naive briar]

You can if you want to make sure that the buffer will be closed

But I think Python will get rid of it after it's used anyway

[shut elk]

Hi, sorry to bother you again but even without stop, this loop didn't even loop

is there a specific reason why it didnt loop through

[naive briar]

What are you even trying to do with it

[shut elk]

so i have a button that sends when the view is called as per usual

and I want to make it so when 10 seconds of the button being sent out, the code will execute and the button will be disabled

[shut elk]

after 10 seconds, for this to execute

[naive briar]

Just use asyncio.sleep then

!d asyncio.sleep

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.sleep

coroutine asyncio.sleep(delay, result=None)```
Block for *delay* seconds.

If *result* is provided, it is returned to the caller when the coroutine completes.

`sleep()` always suspends the current task, allowing other tasks to run.

Setting the delay to 0 provides an optimized path to allow other tasks to run. This can be used by long-running functions to avoid blocking the event loop for the full duration of the function call.

Example of coroutine displaying the current date every second for 5 seconds:

[shut elk]

await asyncio.sleep(10), but it will run multiple times right

[naive briar]

No

[shut elk]

only once?

Like multiple button presses = multiple instances of asyncio sleep..

[ionic garden]

why does message.edit not have a file= argument and instead requires you to put stuff in a list

[naive briar]

Probably API limitations

[shut elk]

? If people press the button multiple times, will it not just do like that multiple times of asyncio sleep and repeat the code underneath it?

[naive briar]

What

It's just a normal coroutine

[shut elk]

aight thx

[shut elk]

also, i have this error where when multiple people click this button in the same time, it lets them do so and the code executes multiple times. I tried making some gateways for the function but it does not work somehow. How would I make this only run once and pressed once, by the first person that presses it?

[torn sail]

iirc discord.py actually makes it so you can't close the file using file.close() and instead automatically closes it once the file is sent

[naive briar]

I think he is talking about io.BytesIO

!d io.BytesIO

[unkempt canyon]

io.BytesIO

class io.BytesIO(initial_bytes=b'')```
A binary stream using an in-memory bytes buffer. It inherits [`BufferedIOBase`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.BufferedIOBase "io.BufferedIOBase"). The buffer is discarded when the [`close()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.IOBase.close "io.IOBase.close") method is called.

The optional argument *initial\_bytes* is a [bytes-like object](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-bytes-like-object) that contains initial data.

I'm trying to make a website with a discord login using OAuth2. Everything works but when i print out the user id of the user on my flask website it is different from my actual id. Does somebody know why

[sick birch]

Could it be your bot's ID?

[delicate moat]

ok turns out it was some sort of rounding error. I have a flask program and i tried to send in the id with this: flask.rendertemplate("htmlfile", id={{user_id}})

turns out in my html file i hda to do this:

var userId = {{ id |tojson|safe}};

the "tojson|safe" part makes it round safely

[potent spear]

the good ol piping

[torn kelp]

hi, who can help me with my bot code? i have a problem with discord.py

[naive briar]

Just ask about your problem

[sick birch]

Might anybody know if discord.py dispatches on_guild_join for the initial connection?

I know discord sends out all of your guilds in a massive GUILD_CREATE payload

Not sure if discord.py counts that as "on_guild_join"

[pliant gulch]

Initial connection no, I think you might be thinking of some mixture between initial connection and establishing connection, but what discord.py does is creates a bunch of futures, chunks using that future then gives it a result, after all guilds are chunked (this can be skipped via an option) it'll dispatch
READY => on_connect
finished chunking => on_ready

[sick birch]

Gotcha. So on_guild_join is not dispatched before on_ready?

[pliant gulch]

Then for each future it'll dispatch on_guild_join per each guild that is AVAILABLE

Since guilds can be un-available as well which yields another diff event

[sick birch]

And which is that?

[pliant gulch]

Yea, it'll go ```
1). HELLO
2). IDENTIFY + HEARTBEAT
3). DISPATCH(GUILD_CREATE)
4). on_guild_join this is discord.py's own event not the APIs

holdon

[sick birch]

Ah, on_guild_join being discord.py's own event explains all of it haha

[pliant gulch]

Should be GUILD_DELETE

[pliant gulch]

It get's confusing sometimes because discord.py adds it's own events

And probably the main example would be READY

READY (DISCORD API) => `on_connect` (DISCORD.PY)
chunking guilds => `on_ready` (DISCORD.PY)

[sick birch]

Yeah, I thought on_guild_join was one of Discord's events (GUILD_CREATE) but as you explained, it doesn't seem to be

[pliant gulch]

Yeop

[sweet ore]

Hello, I am making a streak tracker. How can I scheduled messages?

Let's say I want the bot to send me the message at 9 pm

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

@discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[sweet ore]

Well, that's loop

It will work tho

but... it won't have the same functionality as a message schedule

Wait, there's time

My bad, Thanks! @naive briar

[sick birch]

Yes it's a 2.0 feature

Pass in a datetime object

It'll be ran at that time every day

[sweet ore]

Right

[slate swan]

Hello!

I am trying to make a command in my bot that if 1 role is present it runs the function or if another role is present it does it, but if not, return an error

How would I do something like that?

And I want to be able to get the roles via there ids

[sweet ore]

To create buttons I used discord.ui

Is there any official library?

i should read the docs

If anyone can tell that'd be great (i dont have to read docs...)

[torn sail]

discord.ui is part of the official lib

[sweet ore]

Ah

[slate swan]

discord.py has the ui package inbuilt in itself
the library you used earlier was just a copy of it

[sweet ore]

bad 👁️

Oh okay, Thank you for clearing the confusion

[sweet ore]

Misinformation from CHATGPT

The discord.ui is not a module of the discord.py library and it is not an official package.

[slate swan]

chatgpt isn't always necessarily right, its just an AI afterall lol

!d discord.ui.View it exists in dpy

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View

class discord.ui.View(*, timeout=180.0)```
Represents a UI view.

This object must be inherited to create a UI within Discord.

New in version 2.0.

[sweet ore]

yeah

I am messing with it

tho it is useful

[sweet ore]

👍

[slate swan]

in most cases, yes

[sweet ore]

converting my py code to rust...

[slate swan]

tho for discord.py you'll always get wrong/bad answers

[sweet ore]

Not always

Quite often

[vale wing]

That's just outdated info, chatGPT is trained on old data, discord.ui didn't exist as a part of dpy that time probably

[sweet ore]

True

Hello!

I am trying to make a command in my bot that if 1 role is present it runs the function or if another role is present it does it, but if not, return an error

How would I do something like that?
And I want to be able to get the roles via there ids

!d discord.ext.commands.has_any_role

[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")

[slate swan]

use this check

[loud junco]

i can do ?

stats = Stats.value(ctx)
await ctx.send(stats.area)

[naive briar]

What

[loud junco]

can i call it like that

[slate swan]

no

you need an instance of Stats, not the class

[loud junco]

this is what i do for non-async

and it works

[naive briar]

No, it's not class method

I literally just explained like yesterday

Or at least not even 5 days ago

[loud junco]

but i dont understand the class sub what thing

[naive briar]

OOP moment

[loud junco]

import asyncio


class J:
    def __init__(self, var1, var2):
        self.var1 = var1
        self.var2 = var2

        print(self.var1, self.var2, sep="\n")

    @classmethod
    async def new(cls):
        # do some async things
        var1 = await asyncio.sleep(0, result="Variable 1: Cat")
        var2 = await asyncio.sleep(0, result="Variable 2: Meow")

        return cls(var1=var1, var2=var2)

loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
asyncio.set_event_loop(loop)

ins = loop.run_until_complete(J.new())

[loud junco]

i just want to get the value of the thing

or are there some other better ways to get this done

i just want to import the whole chunk of variable one time instead of calling it one by one

the variable is in my database

[slate swan]

!e ```py
class Stats:
def init(self, a):
self.a = a

def do_something(self):
    return self.a+1

stats = Stats(1)
print(stats.do_something()) # will work
print(Stats.a) # will raise error

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :x: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | 2
002 | Traceback (most recent call last):
003 |   File "<string>", line 9, in <module>

[slate swan]

same goes for your your Stats class, you add the bot attribute when the class is initialised

so trying to use it will raise an error

[loud junco]

hmm

but i cant async the init either

i dont even know how to search solution for this online 💀

[slate swan]

you dont need a class if its just for returning a value

just use a simple async function

[loud junco]

hmm ok

[loud junco]

stats = funcname(ctx)
await ctx.send(stats.area)

[naive briar]

You need to await the coroutine an async function returns

[loud junco]

back to discord 101

[loud junco]

hmm ok

[cunning pasture]

Has there been a poll done on if people prefer slash commands or prefix/traditional commands?

[naive briar]

Prefix command >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sl*sh command

[vocal burrow]

how to fix this

AttributeError: module 'discord.ext.commands' has no attribute 'Cogs'

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.Cog

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Cog

The base class that all cogs must inherit from.

A cog is a collection of commands, listeners, and optional state to help group commands together. More information on them can be found on the [Cogs](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/cogs.html#ext-commands-cogs) page.

When inheriting from this class, the options shown in [`CogMeta`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CogMeta "discord.ext.commands.CogMeta") are equally valid here.

[cunning pasture]

I dunno

I have a 3 param command

[vocal burrow]

ok

[cunning pasture]

Slash command seems really convenient for that

@naive briar do you have a discord bot? You seem fairly active in this channel..

[naive briar]

I'm just doing it for fun

[loud junco]

i have a command with 4 parameter

dont ask about the if-else loop that works for that

[cunning pasture]

Why

LOL.

[sweet ore]

I want to email my monthly progress, is it possible to email using discord.py? If so, are there any cons?

[naive briar]

!d email

[unkempt canyon]

email

Source code: Lib/email/__init__.py

The email package is a library for managing email messages. It is specifically not designed to do any sending of email messages to SMTP (RFC 2821), NNTP, or other servers; those are functions of modules such as smtplib and nntplib. The email package attempts to be as RFC-compliant as possible, supporting RFC 5322 and RFC 6532, as well as such MIME-related RFCs as RFC 2045, RFC 2046, RFC 2047, RFC 2183, and RFC 2231.

The overall structure of the email package can be divided into three major components, plus a fourth component that controls the behavior of the other components.

Whats meaning of self bot in discord.py?

[slate swan]

running user account as a bot

[pastel basin]

hey, wheenver i restart my bot i cant interact with the buttons

How to make buttons persistent?

[pastel basin]

its against TOS

[slate swan]

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    channel = client.get.channel("1064291777072337026")
    await channel.send("Hallo")

why is there no message when someone joins the server

[kind trellis]

Can modals have a description?

[tame gazelle]

Any1 can make a code that runs on pc/vps that acts as a discord account not as a bot

[naive briar]

What even is client.get.channel

!d discord.Client.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.get\_channel

get_channel(id, /)```
Returns a channel or thread with the given ID.

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

[naive briar]

What

[slate swan]

how should I do that

```py
import dataclasses

@dataclasses.dataclass
class Getter:
bot: "Bot"

@property
def channel(self):
    return self.bot.get_channel

bot.get = Getter(bot)

[slate swan]

its get_channel, not get.channel

and the ID should be an integer

Ah ok

[cloud dawn]

Sir this is Python.

[slate swan]

 channel = client.get_channel(1064291777072337026)

so? @slate swan

not the id,

without id?

it's the name of the argument, you don't type that out there lol

[slate swan]

i mean that's how most of dpy is working 🗿 redirecting to another class's method

just replace the dot with _

[slate swan]

ids should be provided as 1234,not "1234"

[slate swan]

so now that is correct

[fair magnet]

async def snipes(ctx, *args):
    if "staff" not in [role.name for role in ctx.author.roles]:
        return````

is it wrong that way i only want that staff can use the role

[slate swan]

yes

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_role use a check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_role

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

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

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

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

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

[slate swan]

Ok ty

[pastel basin]

My bot has admin perms, how can I remove the messages?

of a channel

i dont want to recreate the channel

it will change the channel id and other bad stuff will happen

[white citrus]

you can't get the channel id again, it's unique for each channel

[pastel basin]

ik

That's why im asking "how can i remove\delete messages"

[white citrus]

A normal message?

[pastel basin]

ye...

[white citrus]

ctx.message.delete()

[pastel basin]

like !clear 1000

[white citrus]

@pastel basin

[pastel basin]

How many messages will it delete?

[white citrus]

1

[pastel basin]

To delete 200 msgs, should I use a for loop?

for _ in range(201):
  ctx.message.delete()

[slate swan]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None, bulk=True, reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") to delete messages even if they are your own. Having [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") is also needed to retrieve message history.

Changed in version 2.0: The `reason` keyword-only parameter was added.

you need member intents

[naive briar]

!d discord.Intents.members

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.members

Whether guild member related events are enabled.

This corresponds to the following events...

[slate swan]

so what do i have to add i.e. 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.

[slate swan]

something like this, but you set members to true instead of message_content

intents.members = True

?

how do i get the banner and guild_avatar of the user

when i use {user.guild_avatar} it replies with none and {user.banner} returns with none
but if i use {user.guild_avatar.url} it says AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'url'

The user just don't have guild avatar 🤷

What's so confusing about it

[heady verge]

mhm, then what abt banner

i have banner, but it replies with none

can u help

[young dagger]

The bot doesn't respond. No error logs :/

[naive briar]

This code isn't even where the error was raised

!d discord.Guild.create_custom_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_custom\_emoji

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

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

There is currently a limit of 50 static and animated emojis respectively per guild, unless the guild has the `MORE_EMOJI` feature which extends the limit to 200.

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

[naive briar]

The image kwarg needs to a bytes object

Not str

[slate swan]

it is

[naive briar]

In line 97

[slate swan]

how can i get a bytes object from an image so ?

[naive briar]

Just read the file bytes?

This is literally basic Python

[naive briar]

File "C:\Users\user\Desktop\Other\Bots_For_Sell\cleevno\bot.py", line 97, in ea
await interaction.guild.create_custom_emoji(name=the_reaction[0].emoji.name,image=str(the_reaction[0].emoji.name)+".png")

Seems like it, huh?

It's literally in the error

[slate swan]

ah i forgot the last line

to do a slash commands inside a cogs file i use @lavish micamands.command or @bot.tree.commands?

[naive briar]

!d discord.app_commands.command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.command

@discord.app_commands.command(*, name=..., description=..., nsfw=False, auto_locale_strings=True, extras=...)```
Creates an application command from a regular function.

[slate swan]

like this ?

[naive briar]

With .command()

[slate swan]

app is stll underlined

[naive briar]

@app_commands.command()

[slate swan]

ahh

[slate swan]

mb

i have 2 ()

deleted them

still an error

[naive briar]

What's the error then

[slate swan]

@strange knoll.commands.command()

its not an error but underlined

it is an error

app.commands isnt definied

you can't use an object without importing it.

i have to import app_commands in the cog file too?

ofcourse, if you're using it

[naive briar]

That's just how Python works

[slate swan]

ye sorry i had forgotten lol

if i have 50 cogs file i have to import all of them here?

for all my cogs

[naive briar]

Use for loops

[ionic garden]

should i store discord user id as string or int in my discord bot db, or does my question not have enough context

[naive briar]

Integer, at least that's what I do

Why did you think about storing it as string anyway

[ionic garden]

the existing codebase stores uids as strings

[young dagger]

Can someone tell me what's wrong with this code please?

@client.command(name = 'whois')
async def whois(ctx, member: discord.Member = None):
    # Check if the command was used in the correct channel
    if ctx.channel.id == 745832741135712386:
        if member is None:
            await ctx.send("Please provide a user.")
            return

        # Get the URL of the modnoted user's avatar
        avatar_url = member.display_avatar.url

        embed = discord.Embed(title=f"", description=f"", timestamp=datetime.datetime.now(), color=discord.Color.blue())
        embed.set_author(name=f"{member.name}#{member.discriminator}", icon_url=avatar_url)
        embed.add_field(name="User", value=member.mention, inline=True)

        # Send the embed to the channel
        await channel.send(embed=embed)```

[ionic garden]

we're gonna need some errors or smth

[young dagger]

There is no errors

[naive briar]

channel is not defined

And setup logging to log the errors

[peak loom]

I'm trying to make a mute command, but I keep getting this error.

Your bot just don't have to permission to edit the roles of the target member

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

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

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

[peak loom]

I have the roles set for him to have it.

And I have it aswell.

[young dagger]

Ouch you are right

[naive briar]

The error won't be raised then

Are you really sure?

[peak loom]

Nevermind, someone turned off that permission. Thank you.

Now it gives me this.

When command is run or on bot run?

[slate swan]

"Permission issues"

[peak loom]

Command.

[peak loom]

I know, but the bot and I have every permission possible

[slate swan]

It could be due to bot not refreshing commands

[peak loom]

.*

[slate swan]

Application commands from dev portal invite?

[naive briar]

Is the bot's highest role is higher than the member's highest role?

[peak loom]

It's a prefix command, everytime I make an application command it decides it wants to kill itself.

[slate swan]

Ewww prefix command idk shi about prefix commands haven't used them in years

We rocking slash 💪

[peak loom]

F**k.

I just realized that.

[peak loom]

Changed now it's stil not working.

still*

[naive briar]

Is the mute role still higher than the bot's highest role

[peak loom]

Yeah.

[naive briar]

Also Discord has timeout command built-in btw

[peak loom]

I know.

Hi 👋 I'm trying to add a embed.set_thumbnail {image_url} but I keep getting a syntax error. Help pls

[static holly]

please paste your code

[cerulean elbow]

Thanks, & here's a snippet embed.set_thumbnail(url={string}) I replace string with the image url, but I get a syntax error 🤔

[hollow gazelle]

!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.

[hollow gazelle]

how do i do it for py cord

[static holly]

url or locale image?

[cerulean elbow]

Prob url 🤔

[static holly]

embed.set_thumbnail(url=ctx.author.avatar.url)

or

embed.set_thumbnail(url=https://......)

or

file = discord.File(choose_image, filename="image.gif")
        embed.set_image(url="attachment://image.gif")

[cerulean elbow]

The second one thanks

[static holly]

work?

[peak loom]

How do I make a slash command?

[cerulean elbow]

When I add the image url, I get syntax error.

[cerulean elbow]

Basic or advanced slash?

[static holly]

paste your error

[cerulean elbow]

Can't atm. It sends the whole embed command to the console saying "syntax error" under image url.

[peak loom]

Either or.

[static holly]

give me a screen please

[cerulean elbow]

Prob easier on dm. My Internet is being 💩 😢

[static holly]

i cant help you dude ... try it later

[cerulean elbow]

On dm or?

[static holly]

yes

you can

[cerulean elbow]

Thanks 👍

[slate swan]

HI, how to make something like @novel apex ?

[hollow gazelle]

Anyone have a base drop down menu code

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def on_webhook_create():
How do I remove a webhook?

[peak loom]

@bot.command()
async def menu(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Select an option", description="1. Option 1\n2. Option 2", color=0x00ff00)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[slate swan]

hey i have some problem in host bot with discloud
when i upload my codes in it it show

#Traceback (most recent call last):
D  File "/home/user_974333490105552897/main.py", line 2, in <module>
*    from discord import SlashCommandGroup

but it work in vs codes

[hollow gazelle]

thanks

[young dagger]

How can I make this work?

        timestamp = member.joined_at
        fmt_time = timestamp.strftime(timestamp, "f")
        embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=f"{fmt_time}", inline=True)```

The result should show a different time and date for each person based on their time zone

[tawny mantle]

Who can help me to fix my code? Paying with nitro or PayPal… DM ME

[young dagger]

This is not what I'm looking for. I want it to be displayed as this example <t:1673976900:f>

But instead of current time, use the time when the member actually joined the server

[slate swan]

yes it show that

[young dagger]

No

[slate swan]

ohh lemme see

[slate swan]

timestamp = member.joined_at.strftime('%d %B %Y %I:%M %p'))
embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=f"{timestamp}", inline=True)```

[rare echo]

if a user dm’s the bot copy the message and author into a channel in the server

[slate swan]

here now try

[young dagger]

Still the same

[slate swan]

async def on_webhook_create(message):
    webhooks = await message.channel.webhooks()
    for webhook in webhooks:
        await webhook.delete()```
ignore

[young dagger]

I want it to be showed as this

[slate swan]

yes

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

lemme change

[slate swan]

timestamp = member.joined_at.strftime('%d %B %Y %I:%M %p'))
embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=f"{timestamp}", inline=True)```

try now

[young dagger]

You just posted the exact same code

[slate swan]

nope bro

just try

and see

[young dagger]

I don't need to try it, it's the exact same code.

[slate swan]

Yes

[slate swan]

nope i change the date & time format

wait lemme show you

[young dagger]

I don't think you understand what I'm trying to do.

[static holly]

what is the problem please?
from liste_bjr import reponse_description
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'liste_bjr'

[slate swan]

You want like this ?

[young dagger]

No

[slate swan]

hmm

oh 24 hrs format

[young dagger]

I told you I want it to appear using this format
<t:1673979360:f>

[slate swan]

like
month date , year time

lemme try in my bot & show you

[slate swan]

see join & create in embed you want like this?

[mental hollow]

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

discord.utils.format_dt(dt, /, style=None)```
A helper function to format a [`datetime.datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "(in Python v3.11)") for presentation within Discord.

This allows for a locale-independent way of presenting data using Discord specific Markdown...

[mental hollow]

@young dagger that’s what ur looking for

[young dagger]

Yeah

[slate swan]

😮

[young dagger]

Do you know why its not working?

        timestamp = member.joined_at
        fmt_time = discord.utils.format_dt(timestamp, "f")
        embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=f"{fmt_time}", inline=True)```

[mental hollow]

pass the style kwarg as f

instead of just f

[young dagger]

Sorry but can you show me how I do that?

[mental hollow]

do you know what a kwarg is?

[young dagger]

I mean how to pass the style kwarg as f

[fading marlin]

Looks like it should work

Why do you say it's not working?

[young dagger]

Well it does not

[static holly]

please i need help 😕 i'm lost...

#discord-bots message

[young dagger]

Because the bot doesn't response

[fading marlin]

Errors? What's the value that you're getting?

[young dagger]

No errors

[fading marlin]

Did the bot respond before you added that line?

[young dagger]

Yes

[fading marlin]

Then you have an error handler that's eating your errors

[young dagger]

Wait

No it worked :/

My bad, thanks guys

[fading marlin]

Huh?

Oh ok

[young dagger]

I think I was mixing up the codes.

[static holly]

i'm lost...

[young dagger]

@mental hollow @fading marlin My second question. How can I use the same method for Account Created when timestamp = member.joined_at?

[mental hollow]

!d discord.User.created_at

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.created\_at

property created_at```
Returns the user’s creation time in UTC.

This is when the user’s Discord account was created.

[young dagger]

Yes, but timestamp is being used by member.joined_at

Right?

[fading marlin]

You can have multiple timestamps 🤷

[mental hollow]

^

[sick birch]

Just call the variables different things

[young dagger]

Should I rename them like timestamp2 etc? If not, how does the code know which timestamp to use?

[sick birch]

The code doesn't
You do

[mental hollow]

just pass the timestamp object directly into your function

much easier

and you would know what timestamp is for what

[young dagger]

How do I do that?

[static holly]

i have a XX folder and yy.py in this folder. in yy.py i have a variable.
Now when code with:
from XX.yy import variable, i got the error "No module named "variable"...

[mental hollow]

replace the timestamp variable with a datetime object directly instead?

dont create the variable in the first place

[slate swan]

My code:

async def on_webhook_create(message):
    webhooks = await message.channel.webhooks()
    for webhook in webhooks:
        w = await webhook.delete()
        print(w)```

Error

Pls help

[sick birch]

Which one?

[young dagger]

Can you show me an example how it would look like? So I can get a better understanding please

[slate swan]

Bot ignores event

[sick birch]

What does it say in your console?

[slate swan]

And does not remove the webhook

[slate swan]

Bot ignores event

[slate swan]

None

[mental hollow]

I’m not gonna spoon feed so here’s an example of what I mean

what your doing:

count = 10
new_number = count + 4

what you should do instead:

new_number = 10 + 4

the count variable isn’t needed when you can directly pass 10, apply this knowledge to ur own code

[mental hollow]

that’s not a valid event?

[sick birch]

Doesn't seem like there's an event to detect webhook creates

[slate swan]

I saw it on the wiki

:/

[mental hollow]

link?

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Webhook.created_at

[mental hollow]

.

that’s an attribute

not an event

[slate swan]

!d discord.on_integration_create

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_integration\_create

discord.on_integration_create(integration)```
Called when an integration is created.

This requires [`Intents.integrations`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.integrations "discord.Intents.integrations") to be enabled.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

._.

webhooks are integrations.

[young dagger]

So like this?

        member_joined = member.joined_at + discord.utils.format_dt("f")
        account_created = member.created_at + discord.utils.format_dt("f")

        embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=f"{member_joined}", inline=True)
        embed.add_field(name="Account Created", value=f"{account_created}", inline=True)```

Well it didn't work

[mental hollow]

do you know what variables are?

[slate swan]

@mental hollow@slate swan@sick birch discord.AuditLogAction?

[slate swan]

Yes

[mental hollow]

I was speaking to beerhunter, shouldve made that more clear

my bad

[slate swan]

(

[young dagger]

Yes

[coral flicker]

!rule 6 this is not allowed

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

6. Do not post unapproved advertising.

[slate swan]

How can I delete a newly created webhook

[mental hollow]

great, so when using discord.utils.format_dt, replace the timestamp variable with its actual value

[slate swan]

Hmm

on_guild_channel_update ?

[young dagger]

Sorry I don't know how to do that

[mental hollow]

        timestamp = member.joined_at
        fmt_time = discord.utils.format_dt(timestamp, "f")
        embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=f"{fmt_time}", inline=True)```

that was the code you provided us with

with what I said, you should pretty easily be able to do what you wanted

if you can’t, you clearly don’t know what variables are, and in that case, you should probably try to work on a smaller project before creating a discord bot, creating a discord bot is quite difficult / not straightforward and it would help you massively if you knew basic Python

[young dagger]

I want to learn how to pass the timestamp object directly into the function, as you told me about

[mental hollow]

^ this tells you exactly how

[young dagger]

member_joined = discord.utils.format_dt(member.joined_at, "f")

Thanks

[mental hollow]

perfect!

[young dagger]

Makes sense

[slate swan]

What's the f

[steep totem]

Hey! What can be the problem here? The server id correct, 100%, but i only get "You don't have a license."

authorized_server_id = "id"

@client.event
async def on_message(message):

    if message.author == client.user:
        return

    if message.content.startswith('$statsimportant'):

            await message.channel.send("Hello!")
        else:
            await message.channel.send("You don't have a license.")

[sick birch]

The ID is a string

A string will never equal an integer

!e print("12345" == 12345)

[sick birch]

It takes before and after

[slate swan]

Well yeah, but the bot itself is not coming online Not made any major changes to the code recently.

async def main():
    for filename in os.listdir(cogs_folderpath):

You know what, it's probably an issue with my Python or my IDE actually.

[slate swan]

YES

Thank you

[peak loom]

You don't got python installed

[slate swan]

Did you run file or just install

You must run the file that you installed from python website

[static holly]

I opened a topic in the forum
https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/1064978704050171965

[hushed galleon]

if you dont tick the option to add python to path, python and pip wont be usable in the command line, but on windows you're given the py launcher by default which works as an alternative

[cedar turret]

i have it downloaded and i runned it

[hushed galleon]

assuming the web installer included the python launcher, you would run py -m pip install discord.py

[static holly]

but the topic is closed... and i can't open it. I need help i'm locked on my project

[cedar turret]

i tried downloading python again in ubuntu and this time it worked ithink

if this is right thing

[hushed galleon]

your error message does not match the code you showed in that post, but a full traceback would be ideal - you can always make another post and repeat your question with further information

[hushed galleon]

yeah that looks like it installed correctly

[static holly]

okay

Returns the member’s display avatar.

For regular members this is just their avatar, but if they have a guild specific avatar then that is returned instead.

New in version 2.0.

[hollow gazelle]

so i do /banner {user} and comes up with an embed but how to i mention that user or have it put ther name i want it to say {user} banner

@bot.slash_command()
async def banner(ctx, user:discord.Member):
    user = await bot.fetch_user(user.id)
    banner_url = user.banner.url
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Users Banner", color=0xFF0000)
    embed.set_image(url='{}'.format(banner_url))
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)
``` this the code

[slate swan]

@bot.slash_command()
async def banner(ctx, user:discord.Member):

    embed.set_image(url='{}'.format(banner_url))
    await ctx.send(embed=embed) ```

[young dagger]

It's a format code for the "Full" or "Full date and time"

From my understanding

How can I make it so that you can only run a specific command if you have admin rights?

[vague fiber]

There is no way to see a users connections via bots is there?

[young dagger]

What could cause this errors?

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wupulohoso

[vague fiber]

you can add

@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)

right below your @client.command()

[lusty smelt]

Its telling you the error is on LN:195 with Interaction.reponse.defer()

Is there any reason you dont use inheritance and make your own Button class given the amount of logic you have inside that button?

Then you wouldnt need to "check" if pressed because a button has a callback method.

[lusty smelt]

See https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html?highlight=button#discord.ui.Button
It has a method called callback

[lusty smelt]

I personally haven't used pymongo; but it appears it is failing to find either your cursor or the value you attempted to look up which is 3343587727049317749

I would check your DB code.

[young dagger]

There is nothing related to 3343587727049317749

[lusty smelt]

I would check your code; you may be failing to close a cursor position in your code or the code you are using to attempt to get/use a cursor is failing.

[vivid gate]

Hello do anyone know where can I learn python discord library?

[lusty smelt]

like d.py?

[vivid gate]

Exactly discord.py

[lusty smelt]

Have fun~ https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html

If you check the Github they have examples in their repo.

[shut elk]

that ik , i have to await it i fixed it already

i meant the other one for c1

[vivid gate]

Do you know any videos? or this is it?

[shut elk]

oh wait

it is the right ss 1 sec

[lusty smelt]

I don't recommend video's since so much has changed lately.

[vivid gate]

Thanks! can I ask more questions about this later?

[shut elk]

what is inheritance? i dont get what u mean by question

[lusty smelt]

Absolutely; I will do my best to support. I may be away~

[shut elk]

should i send u my code

[vivid gate]

Okie thaks

[shut elk]

oh wait, its right here

[lusty smelt]

I may be referencing it wrong; but I personally call it sub-classing.. its essentially when you do
class my_view(discord.ui.View):

the "my_view" object is a copy of discord.ui.View and knows everything it knows. But the twist is I can now either overwrite its defined methods/attrs or add my own.

There is way more to it then what I just described though.

[sick birch]

Inheritance is one of the pillar of object oriented programming, I'd recommend reading up on it online as it's quite important to know

[lusty smelt]

Yes!

Thanks Robin ❤️

[sly token]

I'm going to ask a little question with discord, I want to show these boost winners on a certain channel, how do I do it?

[sick birch]

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "boost winner"?

[shut elk]

ok what's the issue with it tho

and u can see with my code right? i sent it

[sly token]

the one with the boost pressed

[lusty smelt]

I did see your code; either; A. the Interaction timed out (took longer than 3 seconds to reply/defer) or B. Your view/setup is not correct and I would print the interaction parameter and see what it is.

It should be an object; but again. I would follow Robin's instructions first. It will serve you better than solving your current situation ever could.

[shut elk]

ok

hellloo

@client.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
    if payload.emoji == starboard_emoji:
        print("we made it here")

I have this bit of code here, and i want it so that if it detects that soemone added a specific emoji to a message itll print that message but it isnt printing it for some reason, anyone know why?

[shut elk]

well i think i know this already, it's just class and subclass

How can I fix my error tho?

[lusty smelt]

Setup your button using a subclass and try your code that way. Then report back.

[lusty smelt]

Any reason you are using the 'raw' version instead of the "on_reaction_add()" event?

[shut elk]

that'd help it run faster?

[spiral crypt]

i looked up how to check for reactions earlier on on google and that was one of the options so i just went with it, it worked for my other need for it so i didnt wanna touch it xd

[lusty smelt]

No idea. I was trying to get you to take up better coding practices.

I would defer your interaction immediately

[shut elk]

wait why would i create another subclass for that tho

[shut elk]

K, and ok

[lusty smelt]

I suggest reading the discord.py docs. Use the search bar in the top left of their docs page. Its handy.

[shut elk]

But then I also have a problem where when multiple people press in the same time, it registers multiple

[lusty smelt]

Here -> discordpy.readthedocs.io/

[shut elk]

even if I implemented ways to stop it from happening, I tried like lots of ways but none worked

[lusty smelt]

Okay so you want a button to only be clicked once? Once per user?

Maybe only a specific user? I can teach you that.

[shut elk]

yes

[shut elk]

nope

[lusty smelt]

Yes to which part?

[shut elk]

that i think i can do but multiple users, I implemented many ways that should've worked but there seems to be like poeple slipping in

and resulting in multiple buttons being created from that

cuz its supposed to be 1 click --> make 1 button

[lusty smelt]

People dont "slip in" code does what it is written to do

[shut elk]

but it becomes 2 clicks on one button ---> makes 2 buttons

[shut elk]

first

[lusty smelt]

Okay you can disable a button after it is clicked.

[shut elk]

well, i tried many things like using a list to set the person who did first and check if the person is the first in the list, self.stop, this self.press boolean way, and more

[shut elk]

Ok, i already did

[shut elk]

oh yeah, its a bit messy but button.disabled

[spiral crypt]

yeah i looked at the two, as well as tried to swap it to regular on_reaction_add and my original thing i used it for doesnt work with it, thats why im using on_raw

[shut elk]

i did it later on, but there is always going to be people that are able to slip in, that's why i made the gateway of the self.pressed, along with trying to do the self.stop, list way, etc

[lusty smelt]

Are you inside a bot class or outside? Are you using the proper decorator?

[spiral crypt]

im using @client.event, andd im assuming im outside

[shut elk]

I've had this problem for a bit, but ig now I limit the amt of ppl that can click it so not many people are going to press it at once, but if there ends up being too many people anyways, i just wanna know how I can prevent it if there's no solution then its fine

[lusty smelt]

There is, one moment.

[spiral crypt]

regardless my other thing thats also in the on_war_reaction_add is working just fine, its just the if statement comparing the payload.emoji to the starboard_emoji isnt responding with True and I dont know why

[lusty smelt]

Reason being; is you are probably comparing two objects; which via raw isn't going to match afaik.

[spiral crypt]

im comparing payload.emoji and "⭐"

[young dagger]

I suspect that I am getting CursorNotFound error with the following code:

class MyClient(commands.Bot):
    async def setup_hook(self):

@tasks.loop(hours=24)
async def update_elo_ratings():
    # Get all the users in the collection
    users = collection.find()
    for user in users:
        summoner_id = user['summoner_id']
        summoner_name = get_summoner_name(summoner_id, RIOT_API_KEY)
        tier, rank = get_tier_and_rank(summoner_name, summoner_id, RIOT_API_KEY)
        elo_rating = get_elo_rating(summoner_name, summoner_id, RIOT_API_KEY)
        collection.update_one({"summoner_id": summoner_id}, {"$set": {"tier": tier, "rank": rank, "elo_rating": elo_rating}})
        await asyncio.sleep(10)```

[spiral crypt]

i put a print(payload.emoji) and it does print ⭐

[lusty smelt]

Right; payload.emoji is an object. You are comparing an object to a unicode char.

[spiral crypt]

Ouh

[young dagger]

After it updated all users, I receive the CursorNotFound error.

[lusty smelt]

Atleast It may be. I only know the non raw

[spiral crypt]

is there a type conversion for that?

or is it just str()

[lusty smelt]

So payload.emoji returns a Partialemoji object. Which you may be able to use the .name attr of it to compare as validation. Could even use an id

[spiral crypt]

oh pog that fixed it

i just did if (str(payload.emoji))

[lusty smelt]

Ah nice!

I wonder how its converting it.. thats cool.

[shut elk]

Also here's the code from before, I don't know how making defer on the first line instead of like 3rd will help the time and solve the error, cause I think the button expires in 3 seconds but the 2 lines before that shouldnt take that long right

[lusty smelt]

Lets focus on getting you to subclass the Button and have us disable it after one user.

[shut elk]

ah, i already have it in my code

[lusty smelt]

Okay, may I see it?

[shut elk]

ye ye here

i disabled the button with button.disabled=True

[lusty smelt]

Did you re-send the view?

[shut elk]

and edit original response but it's not going to fit all users unfortunately, since some are going to slip in

yes, my issue isn't disabaling the button it already works, but it's the slim margin that people get in when there is like 3 people spamming the button, it obviously won't disable in time, and will allow some people to click it before it becomes disabled

[lusty smelt]

Store a counter?

[shut elk]

that causes multiple people to enter the code at once and is why I made the gateway that I was talking about..

[lusty smelt]

I would have left it inside the button subclass imo and implemented a counter to prevent that issue.

[shut elk]

Well, I was talking about my self.pressed=True if you saw in the code, and many other similar ways that are supposed to stop this from happening, but despite all of this, there are still people that somehow manage to get in

[shut elk]

oh, I have the gateway thing

[shut elk]

u can check this, it's the self.pressed=True

I tried many other implementations such as self.stop() to stop all other views from ever happening again but i dont think that did anything either, as well as the list way if u saw I talked abt it earlier but ye

the list way is similar to the self.pressed boolean way but using a list, but they all don't always work

[lusty smelt]

Okay. So you've tried the other path. Got it.

[shut elk]

yes

[lusty smelt]

Verify your interaction object regardless and print it

[shut elk]

sure

Right now, it's completely fine because I limited the views so there wont be multiple people clicking hopefully, but in the future there might be

Should i print the interaction object on the top?

isn't it just going to be an object of the discord interactions

[lusty smelt]

Yes.

[shut elk]

K

[lusty smelt]

Do you always get that 404 error or is it intermittent?

[shut elk]

isnt this self explanatory tho

it is literally discord interaction

[lusty smelt]

I would check your collection.update_one() code.

[shut elk]

only happens when multiple people click at once, the more people click it at once the more chance. But some times, even if people werent trying to spam it in the same time, they get it by accident, prolly like 50% of the time when there are 2+ people

[young dagger]

Nothing wrong with it? It's updating all the users?

[lusty smelt]

Right; but somehow you are passing in an "id" that doesn't exist.

[shut elk]

ok

[lusty smelt]

The issue may be your sleep().. The button isnt unique; just the interactions.

[shut elk]

yeah

[young dagger]

Should I add the close() method to close the cursor?

@tasks.loop(hours=24)
async def update_elo_ratings():
    print("Updating all users from the database...")
    # Get all the users in the collection
    users = collection.find()
    for user in users:
        summoner_id = user['summoner_id']
        summoner_name = get_summoner_name(summoner_id, RIOT_API_KEY)
        tier, rank = get_tier_and_rank(summoner_name, summoner_id, RIOT_API_KEY)
        elo_rating = get_elo_rating(summoner_name, summoner_id, RIOT_API_KEY)
        collection.update_one({"summoner_id": summoner_id}, {"$set": {"tier": tier, "rank": rank, "elo_rat>
        await asyncio.sleep(2)
    users.close()```

[lusty smelt]

What? That isn't a cursor.. users is whatever collection.find() returns.

[young dagger]

So what is wrong with collection.update_one? I mean it's updating all the users from the database.

[shut elk]

wait how would the other buttons affect the current button though? Are you saying that the buttons because I didn't make them unique, they will cause trouble with each other? Because there aren't multiple buttons at once, i dont think it will affect anything if only one of the buttons will be clicked at a time. But still, it might be which might mean that I would have to switch to the other way of making buttons, instead of a decorator, I do it the other way directly to a variable. Is there a way to do this without changing the way I make them? And for the sleep, shouldnt it only affect these msgs:

        d=emojis[random.randint(0,len(emojis)-1)]
        embed=discord.Embed(title=f"{d} Grind Channel 1 {d}", description=f"• Click the button below to earn 1-5 points (boosters receive 1-6)!\n• The event ends <t:1674529200:R> | <t:1674529200:f>\n• Use {com} for all commands including status check", color=color) 
        await interaction.channel.send(view=chan1(), embed=embed)```

which the only one that might be causing problems is the next view? So how would I fix this one if you know what I mean like what is the problem with having async sleep / how should I like structure this without changing ways of making my buttons

I probably can make the buttosn the other way but haven't done it so far, since I don't specifically know how to do that and dont want to change too many things but yeah

[lusty smelt]

I am not disagreeing with you; you passed in an invalid summoner_id and it failed.

That long number I copied earlier; it is failing to find it.

[scarlet aurora]

                async def checks():
                    while True:
                        await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check)
                        await echannel.send("Confirmed")

                async def checks2():
                    while True:
                        await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check2)
                        await echannel.send("Declined")


                asyncio.run(await checks())
                asyncio.run(await checks2())```Does this mean that both functions are being ran at the same time?

[sick birch]

You shouldn't be using asyncio.run() like that

It should be used only once and should be used to kickstart the entire application

[young dagger]

It is not possible. All summoners are getting updated. The error occurs after it updates all the users.

[scarlet aurora]

                async def checks():
                    while True:
                        await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check)
                        await echannel.send("Confirmed")

                async def checks2():
                    while True:
                        await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check2)
                        await echannel.send("Declined")```How can I run both these functions simultaneously?

[shut elk]

also is it fine if u provided an example of how I can make a button the other way and apply it to the view

[lusty smelt]

If two people click the same button for the same view; it isn't unique. So that sleep will block any subsequent clicks..

Which would cause a interaction timeout..

[naive briar]

Huh

[shut elk]

true, but how can it even get past my gateway that I set??

and how can sleep block clicks, i thought it was just blocking the coroutine functions after it

am a bit confused sry

[young dagger]

Btw how do you know that the error is caused because I passed in an invalid summoner_id?

[naive briar]

No

[lusty smelt]

Sorry it doesn't block the "click"..

I am not entirely sure how they are getting passed your Gateway. I would print vars and see what is going on.

[shut elk]

ok

[lusty smelt]

Could be some edge case that my lack of understanding for d.py is not aware of.

[shut elk]

also should i do my gateway first or defer
