!d bool

[unkempt canyon]

bool

class bool(x=False)```
Return a Boolean value, i.e. one of `True` or `False`. *x* is converted using the standard [truth testing procedure](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#truth). If *x* is false or omitted, this returns `False`; otherwise, it returns `True`. The [`bool`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "bool") class is a subclass of [`int`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "int") (see [Numeric Types — int, float, complex](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#typesnumeric)). It cannot be subclassed further. Its only instances are `False` and `True` (see [Boolean Values](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bltin-boolean-values)).

Changed in version 3.7: *x* is now a positional-only parameter.

[static holly]

hi, my code is correct, but i want the mention is mentionned
how to? please

  @commands.command(pass_context=True)
    async def hug(self, ctx, *, member_mention:discord.Member=None):
        user= ctx.author.mention
        await ctx.send (f"{user} say hi to {member_mention}")

[slate swan]

I tried doing setting:bool

[naive briar]

member_mention.mention

!d discord.Member.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.mention

property mention```
Returns a string that allows you to mention the member.

[static holly]

ok, thanks!
ok and how do i return a different message depending on whether i am mentioning someone or not?

[slate swan]

Do you want it to be random or under a certain circumstance they get pinged

[static holly]

I want to display a simple answer without ping if I don't mention anyone, and display a different answer if I mention someone. I think that with if and else it should work but I have a doubt about the code

if mention== true > answer 1
else: answer 2

is correct?

[slate swan]

try something like this:

@commands.command(pass_context=True)
async def hug(self, ctx, *, member_mention:discord.Member=None)
  if member_mention == None:
    pass # if none it'll go here
  else:
    pass # if you ping someone it'll go here

Think this will work?

[static holly]

pass? what is this?

[naive briar]

Nothing

[slate swan]

replace pass with code

[naive briar]

!d pass

[unkempt canyon]

pass

7.4. The pass statement

pass_stmt ::=  "pass"
``` [`pass`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#pass) is a null operation — when it is executed, nothing happens. It is useful as a placeholder when a statement is required syntactically, but no code needs to be executed, for example:

```py
def f(arg): pass    # a function that does nothing (yet)

class C: pass       # a class with no methods (yet)

[static holly]

okay!

[slate swan]

you put pass in spots you don't need code to run

[static holly]

okay, thanks 🙂

[slate swan]

I use it if I don't want code in that spot yet so it doesn't error lol

[slate swan]

can you help with this bool thing

[static holly]

@commands.command(pass_context=True)
    async def hug(self, ctx, *, member_mention:discord.Member=None):
        user= ctx.author.display_name

        if member_mention == None:
            await ctx.send (f"{user} say hello")

        else:
            await ctx.send (f"{user} say hello to {member_mention.mention}")

[slate swan]

somethin like that

Read the error

!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.

[autumn totem]

But I imported every intent

or doesnt that matter?

[shrewd apex]

why do u have both client and commands.Bot u need only 1

[naive briar]

Tell the error then

It won't be there if there's nothing wrong

[autumn totem]

smart

yh but thats true

I aint long into coding bots

since yesterday

[autumn totem]

uhhh sometimes I asked chatgpt for help maybe it dont smth wrong

[austere prairie]

yeah, you only need one (preferably commands.Bot)

[autumn totem]

Alright thanks

[shrewd apex]

💀 we need a warning note for chatgpt with discord bots

[autumn totem]

Yeah haha

[austere prairie]

we already had an announcement for chatgpt in general

[autumn totem]

Thanks It worked

❤️

[austere prairie]

👍

[sly fog]

How do I reformat the default help command

like i wanna make it an embed for example

do i have to rewrite the whole help command?

or is there a different way

[obtuse iris]

!or

[austere prairie]

There's a built-in way to do it apparently https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#help-commands

I haven't used it before though

[sly fog]

oh ok

thx

[sly fog]

same, i've always did a custom one before

[ebon island]

Using wavelink to play static local files, what is the most efficient way to accomplish a 24/7 music playlist? I know wavelink has a queue feature but is it more efficient to create a large queue on the order of thousands or to programmatically load the instrumentals one at a time and play them on demand or some combination of the two like for example having a queue of a given length and keeping it populated? I'm curious what the best design pattern is for handling such things for a locally sourced 24/7 music player. Thanks!

I'm curious what would be the better solution in terms of memory efficiency and scalability

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands
import coc
import requests

key = "my_key"

url = "https://api.clashofclans.com"

headers = {
"Accept" : "application/json"
"Authorization" : "Bearer %s" % key
}

response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers)

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">", intents=discord.Intents.all())

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Bot online')
    
@client.command()
async def player(ctx, tag):
    player = await client.get_player("tag")
    await ctx.send(f"{player.name} has {player.trophies} trophies!")
    
client.run("token")```

i have a syntax error

my trying to use API for the first time

i followed a tutorial

[shadow wraith]

you're missing a ,

[slate swan]

after what?

json", ?

[shadow wraith]

after "application/json"

[slate swan]

okay

[shadow wraith]

why are you using the clash of clans api though 🤣

[ebon island]

You need a comma after the application Json on the first line for starters

Additionally, you should get in the habit of using F strings because they are great, very easy to use

[slate swan]

why are u laughing lmao

[ebon island]

example_fstring = f'Bearer {key}'

[quick gust]

I believe they are aware of how to use f strings as they have used it in their command

[ebon island]

Ah, I didn't look at that code but anytime I see old formatting methods I assume it is most likely done through lack of knowledge of f-strings and this is a teaching moment for better practices since many new python coders follow tutorials and such and do not know the distinction

[ebon island]

Anyone knowledgeable on the subject have guidance on the above btw? Going to be roughing out implementation today so wanted to get the inside scoop on efficient implementation

I just literally want to know which is considered the best practice for static locally sourced files, I have all search mechanisms disabled and the bot will randomly choose tracks to add based on the parameters indicated, curious if it would be better to create a queue of some length and if so what length or if it would be better to play each instrumental On Demand upon completion

[naive briar]

I would just use queues

[shut axle]

!cogs

!d

[unkempt canyon]

All inventories (`45` total)

• black
• blessed
• botcore
• dateutil
• discordpy
• disnake
• django

Page 2/7

[ebon island]

Sounds good, I will try that, is it going to be an issue at scale say if I have many servers each with hundreds and potentially more than a thousand instrumentals All In queues individually assigned to each server?

[naive briar]

I mean

I would use a database then

If it's small or private queues are enough

[ebon island]

What purpose would the database serve? All of the files are local so I can just index them and I will either way have to execute some sort of logic to either Play On Demand or create a q which will enable the 24/7 music player Behavior

[naive briar]

Idk, if you have a ton of ram in your machine then I guess

I just feels like store tens of thousands of objects in the ram would be too heavy

If your bot are really that big

Or I'm just overreacting, who knows

[ebon island]

Fair, I will definitely give it more thought and eventually I am definitely going to have an API serving this stuff with a database so I will address that eventually but at least theoretically all it is is file paths because only when the instrumentals are played is the file actually accessed otherwise it is just a whole bunch of strings or lightweight objects

Appreciate the response!

[vale wing]

Idk I still do errors messages with % op idk why

[rapid knoll]

how do you timeout a member

[naive briar]

!d discord.Member.timeout

[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").

[rapid knoll]

how would that be coded?

[simple plume]

So I have this code that when a user sends any kind of message the bot must reply, but the bot isn't doing anything xd

[rapid knoll]

tab the await down one or remove the return

[simple plume]

I removed the return and the bot just send messages in a loop

[rapid knoll]

try it the other way

[simple plume]

Still not working

[rapid knoll]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == bot.user:
        return
    await message.channel.send("This is a response")

That should work

[vale wing]

Use listen() instead of event

[pallid meadow]

no event is correct here

assuming they are doing this in a singular file

[vale wing]

Event can't be "correct"

[naive briar]

Use listen

🤣

Just ask your questions

[vale wing]

Do yk difference between event and listen()

[primal token]

Why are you guys attacking the poor lad

[pallid meadow]

no because I don't use listeners outside of cogs

or I just subclass my bot

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

@listen(name=None)```
A decorator that registers another function as an external event listener. Basically this allows you to listen to multiple events from different places e.g. such as [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready")

The functions being listened to must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.11)").

Example...

[pallid meadow]

okay...

[vale wing]

Cog.listener() is a different thing

[primal token]

listeners are better overall, you avoid many abstraction issues

[primal token]

They're both listeners lol

[vale wing]

Yes

[pallid meadow]

it isn't

[vale wing]

I never said it's not a listener

[pallid meadow]

you said it's a different thing which implies that

but okay whatever

[naive briar]

They're different in where you use them

But serves same purpose

[primal token]

You want to make new lines?

!e

print("Hello\nWorld!")

[unkempt canyon]

@primal token :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | Hello
002 | World!

[naive briar]

Or triple quotes

[primal token]

what was its name again

!d discord.discord.ext.commands.Author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.discord.ext.commands.Author

discord.ext.commands.Author```
A default [`Parameter`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Parameter "discord.ext.commands.Parameter") which returns the [`author`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.author "discord.ext.commands.Context.author") for this context.

New in version 2.0.

[primal token]

lovely dir

[primal token]

@slate swan use this as your default value in your member argument, you can save yourself the task of checking the value of member with

if member == None: 
        member = ctx.author

if anyone has an idea im willing to take haha

[vocal plover]

Consider providing people with useful help rather than just blaming a library without reason, or just don't provide help. It's not useful to just start wars between libs

[naive briar]

Can't always deny the facts

[vocal plover]

Well the facts here are that you're pointlessly trying to create library drama in a channel where people ask for help, so this isn't the place.

[upper root]

anyone idea>>

[vocal plover]

the command is indented too far in your cog class, it should be at the same level as __init__, not within that function

[slate swan]

Guys I took a data base from replit for music bot and I add some stuff the bot is online but it doesn't respond to my commands
NB: am just a beginner

[upper root]

wym?

[upper root]

in my main.py?

[vocal plover]

in the second code block,

class MyCog:...
  def __init__(): ...
  
  @nextcord.slash_command()
  ...
```it should be indented like that

currently you have the slash command nexted within the init function, but it needs to be on the class, not in the function

[slate swan]

@vocal plover

[vocal plover]

I don't help with music bots since they generally violate Discord's and YouTube's terms of service

Hello guys so I recently switched all my commands into cogs and I had before errors handlers that if the person using the commands is missing a role it will answer with a message "Only admins are allowed to use this command!"
although now someone told me to create a cog with this error

import nextcord
from nextcord.ext import commands, application_checks
from nextcord import Interaction
from dateutil import parser
from nextcord.ext import commands


class error(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_error(self, itr: Interaction, error):
        print("an error is being raised")
        if isinstance(error, nextcord.ext.commands.MissingAnyRole): await itr.response.send_message(
            "Only admins are allowed to use this command!")


def setup(client):
    client.add_cog(error(client))

Any idea on how to do it? what should i fix? because the bot is not sending the error

[vale wing]

on_command_error*

Not sure if nextcord has separate events for slash commands

[tough lance]

Hi, I'm using disnake and my bot just disconnects after a few hours of runtime. But the python script keeps running

I wanted to know if you can kill the script in anyway...

switched to on_application_command_error

but I still do not get any message

Ignoring exception in command <nextcord.application_command.SlashApplicationCommand object at 0x0000020515B0BF10>:
I get this idk why

https://docs.nextcord.dev/en/stable/ext/application_checks/index.html#nextcord.ext.application_checks.on_application_command_error

[vale wing]

Why tf they put it into checks 💀

@upper root error handler should raise unknown exceptions

if isinstance(err, SomeError):
    ...
else:
    raise err```

[upper root]

So what do I change it to ? err, SomeError

[vale wing]

That was an example

Key part is else clause

[smoky sinew]

👋

[shrewd barn]

how can i get the id of user launched slash command

[upper root]

And for example let’s say I want to stop using nextcord because I’m getting too confused Xd. Could I do a simple file called handlingerrors.py and import it into my main.py and in this file. I add all my errors handling

Will that be possible ? And if so what should the form of the file handlingerrors look like ?. A simple @client.event

How do you run your bot and what other async packages do you utilize (db, web, etc)

[tough lance]

I'm using systemd, and using asyncpg, and pillow (run_in_executor)

[vale wing]

Do you use asyncpg client or you embed API

[tough lance]

explain a bit more...

[vale wing]

Do you just make requests with it or you have API server embedded into bot

[tough lance]

I still don't get it, but the postgres server is hosted on the same server as the bot

[vale wing]

Ok then you just make requests if you don't understand what I mean

Instead of systemd I recommend using docker, might solve the issue https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/docker-hosting-guide/

[timid spade]

how do make it so if the error is not missing permission it gets displayed in console normally

[fading marlin]

Add an else block and raise error

[timid spade]

anyone else having problems with the discord servers?

aiohttp.client_exceptions.ServerDisconnectedError: Server disconnected

what is the disconnect message

[tough lance]

nothing?

[slate swan]

that doesn't make sense.

[simple plume]

too long xD

[slate swan]

!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]

you say your bot is disconnecting yet you don't see anything about a disconnect in console?

[vale wing]

Send only part that is related to your issue

[tough lance]

I mean disconnected from discord itself, but the script loop just keeps running.

[vale wing]

Show full traceback

[slate swan]

yeah can you show us the message it provides in console when it's disconnected

[tough lance]

It doesn't provide anything.

[vale wing]

Do you have logging set up?

[tough lance]

Ya

INFO

[vale wing]

Debug level?

Do debug level

[slate swan]

info level still provides logs on disconnect

[vale wing]

Probably will be able to catch more stuff

[slate swan]

i don't think it is being disconnected from discord. it sounds like a host issue

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @thin oar!

Mac or win?

[thin oar]

win

ubuntu specific

[vale wing]

What

Windows is not ubuntu at all

[thin oar]

I am running the code on ubuntu but my pc is win

[vale wing]

Those are like completely different things

[vale wing]

The error occurs on windows or on ubuntu?

[slate swan]

looks like ubuntu

[simple plume]

ty

[slate swan]

he's using WSL maybe

ah yea

[thin oar]

my code is working, I am running it for a few days, not a problem but now suddenly it doesn't work anymore

the delay is like 2 minutes

[vale wing]

So where

[thin oar]

and I keep getting warning and this error

[slate swan]

its a connection issue, most probably because of internet availability

[thin oar]

I am using a cable

[vale wing]

Or bad certificates

[slate swan]

is your system setup to use it for intent?

[slate swan]

never had to install certificates on linux

[thin oar]

aiohttp.client_exceptions.ServerDisconnectedError: Server disconnected

[vale wing]

One person had the same problem and reinstalling certificates helped

[slate swan]

if that's the issue installing certifi should make it work

[vale wing]

But yeah the error looks like connection issue

[thin oar]

I already have that installed

[vale wing]

Does ping to anything work

[vale wing]

?

[slate swan]

is it possible to upload an attachment with a json format

i may be in the wrong chat for this

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Message' object has no attribute 'wait_for'```

[potent spear]

!d discord.Client.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.11)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.11)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.11)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[mild lava]

how can i add internal paramaters to a discord.py app_command? i have a decorator that constructs some custom context, and passes it to the command function along with the interaction and other args, but discord.py doesn't like extra args in my command because it expects only args that are meant to be used client-side.

example:

@app_commands.command()
@custom_deco
async def my_command(
  self,
  interaction: Interaction,
  custom_ctx: CustomCtx,
  command_arg: str
):
  pass

custom_ctx is my custom context, passed by the decorator, and command_arg is an actual argument for the client-side command

error:

discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'game' raised an error: TypeError: unsupported type annotation <class 'game.GameInstance'>  # GameInstance is the custom context

im thinking i probably have to wrap creation of the command with a decorator, but im unsure of how to go about that

[potent spear]

seems like some xy problem

why would you need an extra arg in your command in the first place?

[sick birch]

You can't use custom contexts in app commands from what I can tell

But yeah sounds like an XY problem
If you tell us what your original real problem is we can see if there are better ways to do it

[potent spear]

I feel like he just needs to set a botvariable

I created a ticket system, where a user needs to dm the bot with "ticket". A ticket_channel will be created on the server and the function of all this is, that all the messages, that the user is sending to the bot, the bot sends these messages to the channel in my server. And reversed:
The problem here is that the command "ticket" is working (a new text channel has been created) if the user sends a message, the channel in the server recieves nothing

Can someone help me?

[potent spear]

you should consider using commands

this will make things a lot easier to maintain
there are decorators etc for commands to make sure they only work in private channels etc

everything till the "check" function (not included) should be a ticket command

[jovial steeple]

oh ok
I will recode this with commands and then confirm, if it worked

[mild lava]

my bot runs a game. users can start games. to make it easier, i represent game instances as classes, and use a decorator on those commands that are supposed to be run during a game. the decorator checks that a valid game instance exists and passes it into the command function

[potent spear]

so still.. what's the extra arg for?

[mild lava]

the game instance

[potent spear]

why don't you use a database or whatever to store their progress?

[mild lava]

i just dont want to check that a game instance exists, and retrieve it, in every single command that requires the context

rather do it once in a wrapper

[potent spear]

ok, you did that already...

you can just use a botvar for that, which just checks in the db if a "game progress" between 2 user IDs in a certain guild is already established

[mild lava]

yep. it worked alright before i started migrating to slash commands. parameter handling changed and now it doesnt accept that custom parameter

[mild lava]

botvar?

[potent spear]

!botvar

[unkempt canyon]

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

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

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

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

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

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

[potent spear]

maybe that's what you need to keep track of your "game instances"

[mild lava]

i already keep track of my game instances using a self.games variable in the cog

[potent spear]

alright, then still, what do you pass as extra arg in your command that's só needed?

[mild lava]

here's the decorator

class Game(Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: Bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.games: dict[int, GameInstance] = {}

    @staticmethod
    def game_command(func):
        @functools.wraps(func)
        async def decorator(self: "Game", interaction: Interaction, *args, **kwargs):
            if interaction.channel_id in self.games:
                await func(
                    self,
                    interaction=interaction,
                    game=self.games[interaction.channel_id],
                    *args,
                    **kwargs,
                )
            else:
                await interaction.response.send_message("No game started.", ephemeral=True)

        return decorator

[potent spear]

I would never handle that stuff in your decorator tbh

[mild lava]

the reason i wrote it was to abstract away all the game instance handling and retrieving, so i don't have to copy & paste that code into every single command that requires a game instance

[potent spear]

I'd just throw an error and let your error handler send that message

[potent spear]

I see, but I still don't know what the command_arg is for

[mild lava]

command_arg represents regular arguments that are supposed to be used client-side

[teal glade]

How do you write a function to get a random tenor gif using a query?

[potent spear]

that question has 2 parts
"how to get a random tenor gif by a given query?"
"how to give a query through a command?"

[teal glade]

The first question

[mild lava]

they didnt mention command...

[potent spear]

alr, so I don't think you're allowed AND interaction AND ctx in a command, you'll have to pick one or the other

[potent spear]

that's not really #discord-bots related, so maybe #❓｜how-to-get-help

[mild lava]

im aware, i cant have both Interaction and Context, but i dont need discord.py's context, im just trying to pass arbitrary arguments into my command function while calling it. seems like i have to write some custom command creation wrapper.

[potent spear]

you're still trying to "fix" your problem your way, while there are better solutions

you don't need the custom context passed to be able to use your custom decorator

[mild lava]

is there a better way to wrap an app_command function?

[potent spear]

yeah, there's most likely something documented about custom decorators in the docs

[mild lava]

my custom decorator does work, its not the issue

the issue is that i can't pass arbitrary arguments to my command functions without discord.py thinking the parameters are for the actual slash command

[potent spear]

can you tell me once again why you need to pass arbitrary args and where exactly you use them?

[mild lava]

i've got a large amount of commands that require additional information to run, so rather than checking that the information exists and retrieving it in every single command, i want to be able to pass the information as an argument

which will be provided by a decorator

[potent spear]

have you tried the on_command event instead?

which can basically prevent or do whatever with certain commands before they're executed

[mild lava]

can it pass arguments?

[potent spear]

yes, most likely
but you're still looking at this at a wrong angle... you don't need to pass arguments, you just need to get / edit them through a botvar or whatever

[mild lava]

i don't think storing the current command's game instance in a botvar would play nicely with many commands being run at the same time asynchronously.

[potent spear]

that's why you use a database

[mild lava]

maybe i could attach the game instance to the already existing interaction parameter

[mild lava]

still have to retrieve from the database

& validate

[potent spear]

takes no time

• it's async

[mild lava]

takes a lot of duplicated code

time was never an issue

[potent spear]

duplicated code?

you're just editing the game progress in the db while making moves

I have to be able to reproduce it

[mild lava]

say i had 50 different commands. each one, at the beginning of the function, would need to do the same steps: check that a game instance exists for the channel, and get it

[potent spear]

mhm, not a problem

[rare echo]

might be late to the show but why cant you just make a function for it instead of a decorator?

[mild lava]

i have thought of that. it would require quite a bit of rewriting in my case, but its an option i will pursue if i can't get this to work

[potent spear]

you can even write a cog check in your case
=> checks a certain function for every command in a cog without having to put that decorator on top of every command in the cog

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=cog#discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_check

like 5 lines of code lol

[mild lava]

1. that seems to only work with old commands that take ctx, not interaction, and 2. it doesnt solve the issue of passing arguments to command functions. i've begun working on something, will come back if i run into more issues

[slate swan]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.interaction_check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.interaction\_check

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

A global check to determine if an [`Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction") should be processed by the tree.

The default implementation returns True (all interactions are processed), but can be overridden if custom behaviour is desired.

[spice jewel]

still need help w this

msg = await spooky.wait_for("none", check=lambda x: x == ctx.author)
    if msg.content  == 'none' and ctx.author == msg.author:

        remove=discord.Embed(
            title="⠀⠀ User Removed ✦", 
            description=f"{member.mention} has been removed", 
            color=discord.Color(0xac0101)
            )
        await ctx.send(embed=remove)
    else:
        await member.remove_roles(roles)
        await member.edit(nick=None)
        dynamic_timestamp = discord.utils.format_dt(datetime.now(), style="R")
        remove=discord.Embed(

            color=discord.Color(0xac0101)
            )
        await ctx.send(embed=remove)```

it's still not sending anything

[potent spear]

wait_for waits for an event, "none" is not an event

[spice jewel]

I see, how should I code it then? (bot asks "What is the reason for removing?" and whatever the user sends is stored in a variable and later used in an embed)

[potent spear]

#discord-bots message

[spice jewel]

is "message" when they send any message?

[potent spear]

correct
aka
"whenever an on_message event gets executed"

[spice jewel]

it's still not doing anything, here is the updated code:

[potent spear]

but as the docs state, with wait_for, you don't have to type the on_\_

have you tried debugging? or are you guessing?

[spice jewel]

    msg = await spooky.wait_for("message", check=lambda x: x == ctx.author)
    await ctx.send("no reason selected")
    await member.remove_roles(role)
    await member.edit(nick=None)
    dynamic_timestamp = discord.utils.format_dt(datetime.now(), style="R")
    remove=discord.Embed(
        title="⠀⠀ User Removed ✦", 
        description=f"{member.mention} has been removed", 
        color=discord.Color(0xac0101)
            )
    remove.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar)
    remove.add_field(
        name="Removed by:",
            value=f"{ctx.author.mention}"
        )
    remove.add_field(
        name="Date removed:",
        value=dynamic_timestamp,
        inline=True
        )
    remove.add_field(
        name="ID:",
        value=f"{ctx.author.id}",
        inline=False
        )
    remove.add_field(
        name="Reason:",
        value=msg,
        inline=False
        )
    await ctx.send(embed=remove)```

[spice jewel]

it says there are no bugs

[potent spear]

not having any errors doesn't mean you don't have bugs

[spice jewel]

is this code correct though?

[sick birch]

Run it and see ™️

[spice jewel]

nothing happened after the bot asked the user the question

[potent spear]

spoiler: no

[spice jewel]

HELP

[potent spear]

the lambda is incorrect in your check function

you're copy pasting

[sick birch]

Should be x.author == ctx.author

[potent spear]

🥄

[spice jewel]

msg = await spooky.wait_for("message", check=lambda x: x.author == ctx.author)```

[sick birch]

That's the message object

[potent spear]

good, now the rest should be a piece of cake

[spice jewel]

yep ty!

[spice jewel]

   remove.add_field(
        name="Reason:",
        value=f"msg",
        inline=False
        )```

yeah for the reason, when I made the value msg

[spice jewel]

it sent that whole strip of information

when I wanted it to be whatever the user said

what should I change it to?

[slate swan]

now reading this why not use an autocomplete?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Message

!d discord.Message.content

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.content

The actual contents of the message. If Intents.message_content is not enabled this will always be an empty string unless the bot is mentioned or the message is a direct message.

[slate swan]

^

[spice jewel]

I'm still a bit confused with this 😭 I'm not sure how to add it to my code

    remove.add_field(
        name="Reason:",
        value=str(discord.message.content),
        inline=True
        )
    await ctx.send(embed=remove)```

[potent spear]

value = msg.content, you definitely have to look more into OOP programming before taking on such projects, you don't seem to have an understanding in the difference between a class and an object

[spice jewel]

yeah, as I explained I'm very new and trying to learn as I go/teach myself. Thank you for your help though <3

[potent spear]

this library has a steep learning curve, so it's more for intermediate programmers, try to grasp the basics first and you'll get projects like these done in no-time
it's GOOD you're not using youtube or whatever as a main source though, that's something to avoid

[static holly]

please, is it possible to add a variable in embed field?

[potent spear]

!xy

[unkempt canyon]

xy-problem

The XY problem can be summarised as asking about your attempted solution, rather than your actual problem.

Often programmers will get distracted with a potential solution they've come up with, and will try asking for help getting it to work. However, it's possible this solution either wouldn't work as they expect, or there's a much better solution instead.

For more information and examples, see http://xyproblem.info/

[static holly]

because i create a help command and i want enter server.text_channels number in str method

[potent spear]

you what?

[static holly]

len(server.text_channels) in fields in embed

its possible?

[potent spear]

do you just want to add an extra field to an embed?

which shows how many text channels there are in your current guild?

[static holly]

yes with my number of text channels

[static holly]

yes

[potent spear]

!d discord.Embed.add_field

recognises content of the first message (y) and responds correctly but for msg2 it doesn't respond with anything, does anyone know why?

[naive briar]

The on_message event needs an argument to represent the sent message

Just add message or msg to the event's function arguments

[naive briar]

Did you define it before trying to check its content

[buoyant quartz]

ok i got it working but now it is spamming the message like twice.... py lastmessage = '' @bot.event async def on_message(message): global lastmessage msg = message.content print(msg) if (repeat == True): if msg != lastmessage: await message.channel.send(content=f'{msg}') lastmessage = msg

[spice jewel]

yes sorry, the code I sent wasn't accurate compared to what was written, I just updated it above

[spice jewel]

^^ msg 1 works but msg 2 doesn't

[vale wing]

What is the while loop there for

f"{msg}" is useless fyi, just use msg, it's already a string instance

[buoyant quartz]

nvm it was just repeating its own message

[young dagger]

Can you leave description empty in embeds?

[slate swan]

yes

[spice jewel]

still need help w this :)

[mild lava]

so it seems discord slash commands dont support variadic arguments (similar to *args, or just a list-type argument). has anyone found any usable workarounds?
https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/discussions/3286

[sick birch]

Aucomplete, like the one guy mentioned, is probably the best solution

Or just a regular string and split by , or some other delimiter

[mild lava]

this is the current implementation. before i migrated to slash commands the user would just mention a bunch of members and the bot would use message.mentions

[sick birch]

How many players?

[mild lava]

2 to infinity, inclusive

[sick birch]

Ah

Why not send a button after? users that want to play have to just click on it

[mild lava]

damn. thats smart

thank you

[sick birch]

no prob

[young dagger]

Should I just merge tier and rank to avoid this?

    # Create a list of ranks for team 1
    team_1_ranks = [f"{u['tier']} {u['rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" if u['tier'] != "Unranked" else f"Unranked ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_1]

    # Create a list of ranks for team 2
    team_2_ranks = [f"{u['tier']} {u['rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" if u['tier'] != "Unranked" else f"Unranked ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_2]```

[sick birch]

Yeah do merge that

[vocal hollow]

how to make a role in server pingable

[sick birch]

Roles are pingable by default

[vocal hollow]

no like in a channel the @ everyone is off but i still want roles to be pingable

i want to turn @ everyone off in every channel but allow specific roles to be pingable in specific channels

[young dagger]

This is how I keep things right now

So if tier Unranked it should not show Unranked twice in the embed for the teams

[young dagger]

But it would end up with the same thing right? if u['tier'] != "Unranked" else f"Unranked ({u['elo_rating']})

[sick birch]

You could probably make a lambda for that

pass that into map

Me personally I would create an abstraction layer for whatever datatype u is

And implement __str__ for it

So I can just do something like

team_1_ranks = map(str, team_1)

[young dagger]

u = user

[sick birch]

It seems like user is a dict?

[young dagger]

So it should create a list for each user representing Discord mention, Summoner Name, Tier+Rank and Elo Rating

[sick birch]

Abstract it into it's own class:

class User:
  def __init__(self, ...) -> None:
    ...
  
  def __str__(self) -> str:
    return f"{} {} {}"

[young dagger]

Something like this? https://paste.pythondiscord.com/onoyogikit

[young dagger]

Is it better to use regular expression or mapping when you have a fixed set of inputs that you want to map to specific outputs?

[sick birch]

mapping or list comps

[naive briar]

I saw what you have deleted

[young dagger]

    # Find the league entry for the RANKED_SOLO_5x5 queue
    for entry in response.json():
        if entry['queueType'] == 'RANKED_SOLO_5x5':
            tier = entry['tier']
            rank = entry['rank']
            break
    else:
        # If no RANKED_SOLO_5x5 entry was found, return "Unranked"
        return "Unranked"

    # Capitalize the first letter of the tier
    tier = tier.capitalize()
    # Get the rank from the rank mapping
    rank = rank_mapping.get(rank)

    return f"{tier} {rank}"```

[young dagger]

I will keep tier and rank as one field instead of two separate fields

I think this is more organized

@sick birch So you wouldn't use this method:

    team_1_ranks = [f"{u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_1]

    team_2_ranks = [f"{u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_2]

    team_1_names = [f"{u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_1]

    team_2_names = [f"{u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_2]```

[sick birch]

probably not

If u is a User class, you can just use u.summoner_name and u.tier_and_rank

[young dagger]

It creates a list using users = []

[young dagger]

You mean like this?

    team_1_ranks = [f"{u.tier_and_rank} ({u.elo_rating})" for u in team_1]
    team_2_ranks = [f"{u.tier_and_rank} ({u.elo_rating})" for u in team_2]

    team_1_names = [f"{u.summoner_name}" for u in team_1]
    team_2_names = [f"{u.summoner_name}" for u in team_2]```

[sick birch]

if team_1 is list[User] yeah

[young dagger]

Here is the list for both teams:

    # Shuffle the list of users
    random.shuffle(users)

    # Divide the users into two equal-sized teams
    num_users = len(users)
    team_size = num_users // 2
    team_1 = users[:team_size]
    team_2 = users[team_size:]```

[sick birch]

Ah, you're randomly assigning players to teams it seems

[young dagger]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'tier_and_rank'

[sick birch]

Did you actually convert the dict into a class?

[young dagger]

I changed to this

[young dagger]

I think I know what the issue is, team_1 and team_2 list are dictionaries and they don't have attributes such as tier_and_rank or elo_rating

[sick birch]

Yea, they need to be converted to the class

You just pass in the appropriate values from the dictionary into the class constructor

[ionic garden]

i've heard somewhere it's possible to have like a general command and then some other things that narrow it down
for example

a.leaderboard, which shows all the possible leaderboards
a.leaderboard coins, which shows the coin lb
a.leaderboard trophies, which shows the trophy lb
etc. etc.
```is this actually a thing?

[torn sail]

is it possible to mention a builtin slash command?

[torn sail]

yep those are groups

!d discord.ext.commands.group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.group

@discord.ext.commands.group(name=..., cls=..., **attrs)```
A decorator that transforms a function into a [`Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Group "discord.ext.commands.Group").

This is similar to the [`command()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.command "discord.ext.commands.command") decorator but the `cls` parameter is set to [`Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Group "discord.ext.commands.Group") by default.

Changed in version 1.1: The `cls` parameter can now be passed.

[ionic garden]

does it work w/ slash commands?

[torn sail]

yes then it would be @app_commands.group()

but note that in app commands only the child command can be invoked. So /group cant be called, only /group subcommand

[ionic garden]

is there a hybrid command group?

[young dagger]

So instead of:

users.append({"member": member, "summoner_name": summoner_name, "tier_and_rank": tier_and_rank, "elo_rating": elo})```

I should use:
```python
users.append(User(member=member, summoner_name=summoner_name, tier_and_rank=tier_and_rank, elo_rating=elo))```

[torn sail]

!d discord.ext.commands.hybrid_group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.hybrid\_group

@discord.ext.commands.hybrid_group(name=..., *, with_app_command=True, **attrs)```
A decorator that transforms a function into a [`HybridGroup`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HybridGroup "discord.ext.commands.HybridGroup").

This is similar to the [`group()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.group "discord.ext.commands.group") decorator except it creates a hybrid group instead.

[sick birch]

And what is users?

[ionic garden]

nice

[young dagger]

Each user in the voice channel

[sick birch]

Are you trying to add a user to voice channel?

[young dagger]

No its retrieving all users from a voice channel generating 2 teams

[sick birch]

Is users the list of all users in the voice channel?

[young dagger]

Yes

[sick birch]

So shouldn't you be appending new User objects to a new list?

You'd get duplicates in users then

[young dagger]

True. So should I create a list instead?

Example:

    team_1_ranks = []
    for u in team_1:
        team_1_ranks.append(f"{tier_and_rank} ({elo_rating})")```

[shrewd fjord]

:0

[sick birch]

Is this all for just displaying in an embed btw?

[shrewd fjord]

Robin, hewo

[young dagger]

Yes

[sick birch]

Howdy!

[shrewd fjord]

Hru:))

[sick birch]

I don't see the need to make like 4 different lists then

[shrewd fjord]

Fine

[sick birch]

All you need is 2 lists comprising of User objects

team1 and team2

[sick birch]

I'm great, thanks for asking 😄

[young dagger]

Can you explain this again please?

[shrewd fjord]

maybe do for loop?

[sick birch]

Right. So you have the User class, with the same attributes your dict does
You just translate the dict to a class
We get the benifit of __str__ here which makes it a lot nicer to read

[shrewd fjord]

!e

msg="bla bla"
m=""
for e in msg:
  m+=e
print(m)

[unkempt canyon]

@shrewd fjord :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

bla bla

[young dagger]

So how would you change this exactly?

    team_1_ranks = [f"{u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_1]

    team_2_ranks = [f"{u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_2]

    team_1_names = [f"{u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_1]

    team_2_names = [f"{u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_2]```

[shrewd fjord]

For embed, altho too old 🗿

[shrewd fjord]

Is "u" a class?

[sick birch]

I recommended that it be

I'm assuming that it's list[User]

[shrewd fjord]

Ye

[shrewd fjord]

Ow h

Maybe dict?

[sick birch]

In which case:

user: list[User] = [...]

team_1_ranks = list(map(str, team_1))
team_1_names = [u.summoner_name for u in team_1]

# same for team 2

It's important that the __str__ of User is how you want it to display

[junior burrow]

i am using discord.py to run a discord bot i am hosting; when i run the but code in pycharm (which is what ive been using) it works; but when i run it on my PC, it doesnt run... when i run a non discord.py program it works fine, any help? when i use pip install discord (i dont think thats it exactly but im close), it says it is already installed. any ideas?

[young dagger]

This is how it should be displayed:

    embed.add_field(name="Summoner Name", value='\n'.join(f"> {name}" for name in team_1_names), inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Rank", value='\n'.join(f"> {rank}" for rank in team_1_ranks), inline=True)```

[shrewd fjord]

wdym by PC

[junior burrow]

with no ide

[sick birch]

You may as well just do

embed.add_field(..., value="\n".join(f"> {u.summoner_name}" for u in team_1)

[junior burrow]

just double click the py file

[sick birch]

You won't need the other 4 lists that way

[shrewd fjord]

Pycharm is a IDE, u can use it on pc anyway

[shrewd fjord]

Uh...

[junior burrow]

yes but it uses 2gb ram, and id much prefer to run it in the basic python window when im not working on it

[shrewd fjord]

If u double click .py file it's going to open, but in pycharm it runs the file on console

U can also run it on console...

[junior burrow]

it closes right away when i open it

[shrewd fjord]

Dont open it

open cmd promt

And enter the exact file directory on cmd and hit enter

[junior burrow]

good point i shouldve tried cmd

[shrewd fjord]

It should come online right way

[young dagger]

He is the full embed:

    # Add the two teams and their ELO ratings to the embed
    embed.add_field(name="Custom Team 1", value=f"".join(f"\n> {u['member'].mention}" for u in team_1),
                    inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Summoner Name", value='\n'.join(f"> {name}" for name in team_1_names), inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Rank", value='\n'.join(f"> {rank}" for rank in team_1_ranks), inline=True)

    embed.add_field(name="Custom Team 2", value=f"".join(f"\n> {u['member'].mention}" for u in team_2),
                    inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Summoner Name", value='\n'.join(f"> {name}" for name in team_2_names), inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Rank", value='\n'.join(f"> {rank}" for rank in team_2_ranks), inline=True)```

[junior burrow]

one second

[sick birch]

Yeah personally I wouldn't try to make a bunch of other lists
Just do it all in the list comp within the values kwarg

[shrewd fjord]

What's the problem

[young dagger]

Robin recommended me not to use:

    team_1_ranks = [f"{u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_1]

    team_2_ranks = [f"{u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_2]

    team_1_names = [f"{u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_1]

    team_2_names = [f"{u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_2]```

[junior burrow]

kek

[sick birch]

@junior burrow it's worth noting that pycharm uses a seperate venv

So you can't just pip install package from your command prompt and have pycharm recognize it

[junior burrow]

yes yes

i had to do it seperately

for both

but it wont work on regular python

ive tried cmd

[young dagger]

This is how it would look like if I didn't use list

[sick birch]

Yeah it's working
You just extract the information you want from it
It looks like you have {"member": member} which I'm not sure is desired

[junior burrow]

any ideas

if not thats fine kek

[young dagger]

0|blitzcrank  | KeyError: 'member'```

@sick birch Should I change it to:

    embed.add_field(name=":crossed_swords: Custom Team 1", value=f"".join(f"\n> {u['user'].mention}" for u in team_1),
                    inline=True)```

Nope,
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: KeyError: 'user'

[junior burrow]

someone ping me when you have a solution, tyty

jsyk for the future i do not mind pings

[young dagger]

How can I extract it correctly?

[sick birch]

I'm still not really sure what the datatype of team_1 is

If dict, what's it's structure?

[lusty smelt]

Wonder if that is json data given its League data

[slate swan]

Hi, what is the most reliable way to tree sync()? Currently, I'm syncing application commands on on_ready.

[sick birch]

setup_hook

[young dagger]

Why shouldn't I add {"member": member} key to the dictionary?

[lusty smelt]

Isn't it still bad juju to auto-sync your command tree?

[sick birch]

You probably should
Or the user class:

class User:
  def __init__(self, ...):
    ...
    self.member = member

that way you can use u.member.mention in your list comp

[sick birch]

setup_hook is only called once

So nothing wrong with that

[slate swan]

Just searched it, couldn't find what you mean. Can I have further explanation? I'm new to python and using discord.py.

[sick birch]

But if you'd like you can have a dedicated sync command

[lusty smelt]

I get that it runs once; it's due in part from constantly restarting your bot during development.

That's the caution.

[sick birch]

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
  def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
  async def setup_hook(self):
    await self.tree.sync()
bot = MyBot(command_prefix="!", intents=discord.Intents.all())
bot.run()

[sick birch]

That's right, however it shouldn't matter
Discord has even made it so you can sync your commands only to one specific guild just for testing

In production, however, your bot script shouldn't be restarted so often that the syncing is being problematic

[lusty smelt]

Mhmm that is true. I guess I assumed they were globally syncing.

[sick birch]

No yeah, it's fair to assume you'd globally sync in prod and sync to a specific guild in dev

[lusty smelt]

[slate swan]

Thank you.

[sick birch]

With the type of hosting options people are going for these days it does happen :P

[lusty smelt]

Oh yea.. gotta love those "bot hosting sites for free"

[sick birch]

(Looking at you replit)

[lusty smelt]

I wasn't going to name drop.

[sick birch]

Well replit should get it's pride kicked out from under it at times

[lusty smelt]

True, it's the user base issues

[sick birch]

@young dagger sorry I couldn't help you further - I have to be off to bed now
If you've got any questions do drop them here and either someone else can help you out or I will tomorrow
Thanks for your patience with me 🙂

[fair shuttle]

is there anything wrong w that im trying to make the banner command?

[shrewd fjord]

Member doesn't have banner

And thus returning None

!e
print(None.url)

[unkempt canyon]

@shrewd fjord :x: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

[junior burrow]

speaking of banners, how do i make GIF banners work without using two links, one for gifs, and one for PNGs

[fair shuttle]

wich member?

[shrewd fjord]

Wait as per docs, you just change the link's extension

Or just u can do...member.banner.url_as or something

Need to check docs

[junior burrow]

if i do .gif, it only works with people with gif banner

if i dont do .gif, it only shows a still image

if i use both, it isnt as clean looking

[shrewd fjord]

member.banner.url.replace('gif','png') altho not recommended

[shrewd fjord]

The banner url will always return the exact url

U no need to worry about changing banner url to gif or png

[junior burrow]

any solutions on my previous issue

?

[shrewd fjord]

What's the prob?

[shrewd fjord]

owh xd

...

[junior burrow]

[shrewd fjord]

Doing something on cmd pretty hard 💀

pip install discord.py

[smoky sinew]

1. why do you use ctx.message.author instead of ctx.author
2. user_banner not userBanner according to python style guide
3. you use x = ... in some parts and x=... in others

[shrewd fjord]

U did this?

💀💀

[junior burrow]

'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

[shrewd fjord]

python3 -m install pip

wait forgor the cmd idk if it's correct 🗿

[smoky sinew]

what 💀

[junior burrow]

Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases.

[shrewd fjord]

I forgor 💀

[smoky sinew]

first of all, it's python on windows not python3 @junior burrow

[shrewd fjord]

Demn

[smoky sinew]

pip comes with python, you don't install it

[shrewd fjord]

Not always

Unless some bad installation

I had to install manually 😔

[junior burrow]

[smoky sinew]

@junior burrow, does running python work?

[shrewd fjord]

Type "
where python

In cmd prompt

[junior burrow]

what do you mean? do you mean basic python files not in an ide with no imports, yes. it also works with some imports just not discord for some reason

[smoky sinew]

what problem are you having

are you using an IDE??

[shrewd fjord]

He is trying to run a py file on cmd without IDE

[junior burrow]

i am, but i would like to run discord.py without the use of an ide

[junior burrow]

it gave the python.exe directory

[smoky sinew]

@junior burrow your IDE uses a different python installation, probably a virtual environment

[shrewd fjord]

Demn, then it's installed

[smoky sinew]

you will need to install the discord.py package separately

[junior burrow]

yes

[junior burrow]

i did, and when i use pip to install it says "requirements already satisfied"

[shrewd fjord]

. 🗿

Alr imma head out

[junior burrow]

cya!!

[shrewd fjord]

;-;

[young dagger]

Thanks. I fixed it:

            users.append(
                {"member": member, "summoner_name": summoner_name, "tier_and_rank": tier_and_rank, "elo_rating": elo})

    embed.add_field(name=":crossed_swords: Custom Team 1", value=f"".join(f"\n> {u['member'].mention}" for u in team_1),
                    inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Summoner Name", value='\n'.join(f"> {u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_1), inline=True)

    embed.add_field(name="Rank", value='\n'.join(f"> {u['tier_and_rank']} ({u['elo_rating']})" for u in team_2), inline=True)```

[smoky sinew]

is where pip the same as where python

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.

yeah, here

[severe skiff]

can someone help me i want that my bot saves the image i send then he sends it back

[severe skiff]

?

[naive briar]

!d discord.Message.attachments

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.attachments

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

[naive briar]

Convert it to file then send it back

[shrewd fjord]

Please send the error

[naive briar]

There are so many things wrong with that

[slate swan]

Enable intents

[naive briar]

They already did

And that error isn't even from the code they just sent

[slate swan]

blocking io 🚶

[severe skiff]

bro but HOW CAN I DO THIS

[slate swan]

you use . attachments attribute of the message object which gives you a list of attachments in the message, then use attachment.to_file() to convert it into a file and send it

!d discord.Attachment.to_file

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Attachment.to\_file

await to_file(*, filename=..., description=..., use_cached=False, spoiler=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Converts the attachment into a [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") suitable for sending via [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send "discord.abc.Messageable.send").

New in version 1.3.

mandatory means required

[severe skiff]

if message.attachments: 

should i use this?

[slate swan]

yes

[severe skiff]

aight

ty

message is underlined lol

why is attachement and message underlined?

bruh

nvm fixed

wt

help

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'member_descriptor' object has no attribute 'to_file

@slate swan sorry for ping but can u help

[meager chasm]

nextcord.Message is the class

You need an instance of the class, which you can get from ctx.message

[severe skiff]

tysm

[meager chasm]

And there is no .Attachment attribute for Message

You can see all the attributes in docs

[severe skiff]

aight thx

[severe skiff]

how would u fix that?

cuz i cant find the Attributes in the website...

[meager chasm]

!d nextcord.Message

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord.Message

class nextcord.Message```
Represents a message from Discord.

x == y Checks if two messages are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the message’s hash.

[meager chasm]

Go to that link

[severe skiff]

there is .attachments

.-.

[meager chasm]

Ok so you can use that

[severe skiff]

attachment = nextcord.Message.attachments

like this?

[vocal snow]

No...

[vocal snow]

This means you do ctx.message.attachments

[severe skiff]

thx

[vocal snow]

Id recommend learning classes in python to understand this

[severe skiff]

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'to_file'

        await ctx.send(attachment)
    if not message.Attachment:
        await ctx.send("please send a attachement")

WHERE DID I TYPE LIST

[naive briar]

message.attachments returns a list

Reading the docs would have told you that

[severe skiff]

and how can i fix it?

[sudden nacelle]

How can I get the bot to ping reply to the user instead of it just sending a blank message in this kick error code:

@kick.error
async def kick_error(interaction: discord.Interaction, error):
    error = getattr(error, "original", error)
    await interaction.response.send_message("You do not have permission to kick people!", delete_after = 5)```

[slate swan]

woof

[naive briar]

What does that supposed to mean

And why are you using getattr function

[sudden nacelle]

someone suggested it a while ago 🤷‍♂️

[slate swan]

right. it's safer to use getattr because not all error instances have original attr

but your question is still not much clear

[sudden nacelle]

I want it so the missing permission one has the discord ping like the top one

[slate swan]

oh

then just ping the user?

@static bane you don't have permission to kick people ( sorry for ping )

[naive briar]

Ig 🤷

[sudden nacelle]

Is there a way I can reply to the user without specifically mentioning them in the message? Or do I have to add {member.mention} at the beginning?

[naive briar]

Why do you want to mention the user anyway

It clearly shows who uses the command

[sudden nacelle]

Figured it would stand out more to the person trying to execute the command

[naive briar]

There's no other option than to mention them in the response

[sudden nacelle]

I see, thank you for helping guys :]

[young dagger]

@sick birch Do you know why did it work with {u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_1 and not {u.summoner_name}" for u in team_1

[naive briar]

What is the context here

[shut axle]

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'BotBase.load_extension' was never awaited
  client.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')

Do you know what is this problem?

[naive briar]

You need to await the coroutine the load_extension function returns

[hushed galleon]

^ see also
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrating.html#extension-and-cog-loading-unloading-is-now-asynchronous

[young dagger]

Can it be because u is a dictionary?

[shut axle]

for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
    if filename.endswith('.py'):
        client.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')

Should I await the client.load_extension?

[golden portal]

yes, its coroutine

[shut axle]

It is not allowed

[naive briar]

Do it in setup_hook

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup_hook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup\_hook

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

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

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

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

Warning

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

does discord.py support slash commands now

all answers on google are from when discord.py was discontinued

[golden portal]

it does

ok ty

[young dagger]

What is wrong with this code? I'm seeing Unexpected argument and Parameter '__value' unfilled

            # Send an embedded message to the specified channel
            channel = discord.utils.get(member.guild.text_channels, id=745832392404762695)
            avatar_url = client.user.avatar.url
            embed = discord.Embed(description=f'Size: **{len(new_members_list)} accounts**', timestamp=datetime.datetime.now(), color=discord.Color.red())
            embed.set_author(name="Here is the list", icon_url=avatar_url)
            embed.set_footer(text="Lis for today.")
            await channel.send(embed=embed)```

I don't understand what could be wrong with await channel.send(embed=embed)

[shut axle]

@naive briar I tried many things but I couldn't success can you give me an example pls?

[young dagger]

I fixed this just by using client.get_channel(channel_id)

[slate swan]

Good day!
I need help...

I want a Discord command that tells me if my server is online or offline...
Can someone help me?

The problem is... The message is not sent because the cmd ping command is blocking it...

(I try like in the photo)

Kind regards

[vale wing]

You mean ping runs forever?

[distant python]

has something changed?

import discord

from discord.ext import commands


class DiscordBot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        intents = discord.Intents.default()
        intents.members = True
        intents.message_content = True

        super().__init__(
            command_prefix='.',
            case_insensitive=True,
            intents=intents
        )

    async def on_ready(self) -> None:
        print(f'Signed in as {self.user.display_name} on Discord.')

    @commands.command()
    async def ping(self, ctx: discord.ext.commands.Context) -> None:
        await ctx.send('plup')


bot = DiscordBot()
bot.run('TOKEN')

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "ping" is not found

[slate swan]

commands defined like that don't get automatically added to the bot

that works only in cogs

[slate swan]

Yes
I just need the response from the ping...
so that I can then say in an if query whether the server is online or offline

[sick birch]

Exactly why

[young dagger]

Alright. I got confused cause you told me to use {u.summoner_name}" for u in team_1. Should I redo the code to use it or just leave it as it is?

[sick birch]

You don't need to

[young dagger]

At least we got rid of the lists: team_1_ranks, team_2_ranks, team_1_names, team_2_names

@sick birch What is the different by using {u.summoner_name}" for u in team_1 and {u['summoner_name']}" for u in team_1 anyway?

[sick birch]

The former uses a class and the latter uses a regular dict

Me personally I would go for the class simply because of that extra abstraction layer

I can add custom errors, override str, implement custom operators

Just good practices you know

[slate swan]

hm

[slate swan]

pretty sure that bot is just matching their own emoji with the user_flags. don't think you can actually get that logo from user_flags just what the user has

!d discord.Member.public_flags

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.public\_flags

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

[fair shuttle]

whats wrong w this iont understand

[sick birch]

You started a string but never ended it

[fair shuttle]

the string is at the end?

[fading marlin]

You have to use triple quotes, or use \n to express a new line

[vale wing]

3 ways of doing multiline string

"""Hi, I have
Three hundred dollars"""

"Hi, I have\n\
Three hundred dollars"

("Hi, I have\n"
"Three hundred dollars")  # braces are needed depending on case

[vocal snow]

Meaning that self.message is a coroutine, something that you have to await

[white citrus]

It is

[vocal snow]

You're awaiting the .edit, not the self.message

[sick birch]

Why would self.message be a Coro

[vocal snow]

Because they've defined it as such probably

Likely not intentionally

[white citrus]

The code is here @vocal snow

[slate swan]

any help^

[bright wedge]

Define the user.
user= ...get_member() or get_user()

Then you can do user.id

[vocal snow]

You need the id to use get_member/get_user...

[jaunty hare]

with what symbol i write code?

anyway, i get the user id with ctx.author.id, and it work

[primal token]

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

you mean format?

!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.

[fair shuttle]

im trying to do slash commands rn and i got this error i think i installed everything

first time im doing that so im sorry if this is stupid lol

i installed this idk if it was needeed

[slate swan]

Anyone know how to interact with a ticket tool panel using discord api

[smoky sinew]

stop using replit

and use a real IDE or code editor

[fair shuttle]

why whats wrong w replit lol

[primal token]

What's a fake editor

[upbeat gust]

I highly recommend uninstalling that and all other 3rd party libs, dpy supports everything you need

[upbeat gust]

What

"and use a real IDE or code editor"

[smoky sinew]

something that's on the cloud

[primal token]

[wary crystal]

TFW when GitHub codespaces (hosted VSCode) isn't a real editor

[slate swan]

code:

        print("Current working directory:", os.getcwd())
        async with aiofiles.open("team_log.txt", "a") as file:
            print("File path:", file.name)
            file.write(f"{user.name} ({user.id}) joined team {team.name}\n")
            print("File written to successfully")
        await interaction.send(f'Sent offer to {user.mention}`{user}`', ephemeral=True)```

What terminal is saying:

```Current working directory: C:\Users\mzsma\Desktop\open3
File path: team_log.txt
File written to successfully
PS C:\Users\mzsma\Desktop\open3>```

But it isnt writing anything in the team_log.txt file, any help?

[hushed galleon]

this is more of a question for #1035199133436354600 or #async-and-concurrency, but it looks like you forgot to put an await in front of your file.write()
reference: https://pypi.org/project/aiofiles/ py async with aiofiles.tempfile.TemporaryFile('wb') as f: await f.write(b'Hello, World!')

[slate swan]

alr ill try it

[naive briar]

Who would have thought, huh

[spice jewel]

await ctx.send(":001callisto: **WARNING: This will remove the user entirely from the system, would you like to proceed?** :001callisto:")
msg1 = await spooky.wait_for("message", check=lambda x: x.author == ctx.author)
    if msg1.content == "y":
        await ctx.send("What is the reason for removing?")
        msg2 = await spooky.wait_for("message", check=lambda x: x.author == ctx.author)
        await member.remove_roles(defined_roles)
        await member.edit(nick=None)

            timestamp=datetime.datetime.utcnow(),
            color=discord.Color(0xac0101)
                )
        remove.add_field(
            name="User ID:",
            value=f"``{member.id}``"
                )
        remove.add_field(
            name="Reason:",
            value=msg2.content,

                )
        remove.set_footer(text=f'{member.id}')
        await ctx.send(embed=remove)```

recognises content of the first message (y) and responds correctly but for msg2 it doesn't respond with anything, does anyone know why?

[elfin cloud]

hello, im wondering how i make it so even when if someone doesnt have a profile picture, it still shows the default profile picture that they have on a command

because right now i have it so its ctx.author.avatar.url but it gives me the error: e.set_author(name=f'{ctx.author.name}', icon_url=ctx.author.avatar.url) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'url'

[fading marlin]

!d discord.Member.display_avatar

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.display\_avatar

property display_avatar```
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.

[elfin cloud]

ah ok thank you

[fading marlin]

You're welcome

[fossil talon]

hey so im sending a request to discord, and one of the values for the dict is over 2k characters, i cannot shorten this, when i send this request to discord, i get 50035 error, can someone pls help?

[sick birch]

Please avoid crossposting, your question is already being answered in #python-discussion

[slate swan]

I'm trying to reply in a message using a message id but idk how to do it that uses a channel to reply to it. i tried this but won't work

    ch = interaction.guild.get_channel(CHANNEL_ID)
    message = await ch.fetch_message(ids)
    await message.reply(embed=emb)

[terse coyote]

is it possible to send an embed image as a spoiler?

[sick birch]

await bot.get_partial_messageable(CHANNEL_ID).get_partial_message(MESSAGE_ID).reply(embed=emb)

[slate swan]

thank youu

[pulsar bridge]

You guys know how some bots can send images, but the images slightly change depending on different variables inputted?
Like, lets say the image is of a.. cup of coffee. But the color of the coffee changes depending on their role color.
Or A picture of a landscape, but the sun is replaced by the profile picture of the triggering user.
I have... absolutely no idea on where I'm supposed to start... or what to search up to find out where to start... ideas?

[sick birch]

This is going to be a lot more complicated than you think

[pulsar bridge]

Sounds great!
Where can I start?

[sick birch]

I would not recommend tackling unless you 110% sure you know what you're doing and you're fairly advanced

[pulsar bridge]

Hmm...
That sounds.. painful.
But I've got time to learn

[sick birch]

Look into PIL or Pillow, if your image is static (e.g it will always be the same image every time), you could apply a hue transformation to a specific part of an image (e.g the region surrounding a cup of coffee)

[pulsar bridge]

And this.. Pillow will be able to do both the examples I provided above?

It will be able to!

Thanks, Robin!
Always helpful

[sick birch]

thank

[spiral crypt]

i have a logic question

progress += (datetime.datetime.utcnow() - progress).total_seconds()
user_time_in_server["progress"] = progress

Assuming this does what I want, starting with progress of 0, and it checks every 5 minutes will it update the "progress" key to 300 properly?

[spice jewel]

still need help 😭

[jade laurel]

no tracebacks?

[spice jewel]

yeah

[jade laurel]

Do u have a error handler?

[spice jewel]

no

[jade laurel]

try removing msg2 line

[grizzled crown]

anyway to get code of a bot on a discords server?

like to copy it and learn

[shrewd fjord]

One liner found

[shrewd fjord]

Just learn the docs

[brisk oar]

where do i host my discord bot

[naive briar]

A VPS

[vale wing]

It's not really a good way to store data that constantly changes but can be calculated. Store only the time when user's progress started being tracked, then you can get how many seconds have passed by subtracting it from current time

[vale wing]

If it's open-source you can find it on github

[spiral crypt]

Yeah i think i did something along the lines of round((datatime.datetime.now() - member.joined_at).total_seconds, 0)

[brisk oar]

what bout a phone

[grizzled crown]

what do you mean?

I was hoping for like a javascript thing where nothing is really closed source but guessing discords bots isn't anyway similar in being able to copy code?

[slate swan]

can you use rich presence for the change_presence for a bot? or is it not possible?

[cunning pasture]

Are you just asking if you can copy paste code and have a discord bot work?

[cunning pasture]

Wouldn’t timezones be an issue there?

[naive briar]

No

Just simple playing, watching, blah blah blah.

[naive briar]

Possibly

!d discord.utils.utcnow

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.utcnow

discord.utils.utcnow()```
A helper function to return an aware UTC datetime representing the current time.

This should be preferred to [`datetime.datetime.utcnow()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.utcnow "(in Python v3.11)") since it is an aware datetime, compared to the naive datetime in the standard library.

New in version 2.0.

[cunning pasture]

Are you sure? I’m not sure if that’s actually true.

[cunning pasture]

This is what I have

f"{datetime.datetime.utcnow() - member.joined_at.replace(tzinfo=None)}"

Not sure if that's needed or not though

[slate swan]

using a unix timestamp is far better

[grizzled crown]

no just view discords bot code like you can view javascript on website through inspect element etc

or any sort of discords bot copier would be nice if there is one

not sure if its possible as maybe its mainly server side and idk if that code is viewable

I think mainly client side code is viewable so not sure how most discords bot work, new to it

[slate swan]

you can't view any bot's source code from discord
the only way to access to it is the actual programmer sharing it somewhere

[grizzled crown]

why is that?

[slate swan]

um,that's what backend is 🤷‍♂️

a discord bot is not a web element that can be accessed through something like inspect tools

it's just like any other user on discord

[winged linden]

How can I check if a string is an emoji within a slash command?

[pulsar bridge]

Trying to download a user's avatar as a file... but it ain't working.

    id = interaction.user.id
    bg = Image.open('directory\\1\\background.png')
    bgc = bg.copy()
    pfp_url = interaction.user.avatar.url
    for url, save_basename in [
        (pfp_url, str(id))
    ]:
        response = requests.get(url)
        if response.status_code != 200:
            raise URLError
        extension = imghdr.what(file=None, h=response.content)
    async with aif.open(f'directory\\1\\{save_basename}.{extension}', 'wb') as file:
         file.write(response.content)

is what I have.
It saves the image with the correct name, but the image is corrupt.
As I'm the triggering user, the url (pfp_url) is https://cdn.discordapp.com/avatars/776940844728057928/f2c610c2befa7b4818186a07232977fc.png
And it saves correctly when I manually download it.
But when the code does it, It corrupt. (Image attached)

[slate swan]

thats not how you do it

!d discord.Asset.save

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Asset.save

await save(fp, *, seek_begin=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Saves this asset into a file-like object.

[slate swan]

just use await user.avatar.save()

with the file path ofc

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.EmojiConverter.convert

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.EmojiConverter.convert

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

The method to override to do conversion logic.

If an error is found while converting, it is recommended to raise a [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError") derived exception as it will properly propagate to the error handlers.

[slate swan]

use this to try converting the string to an emoji

[winged linden]

I was told to use partial emoji converter

[shrewd fjord]

:0

[shrewd fjord]

Unless the bot owner is willing to give the code or just hack the owner's acc

[spice jewel]

okk

[pulsar bridge]

Ahhh, thanks Vanessa!

[shrewd fjord]

Vanessa 💀

Vanessa's trick working, good job as spark said

[jade laurel]

has it worked?

[shrewd apex]

[naive briar]

Sus emoji name

[tidal plover]

Can someone give me tldr on when did discord enforce slash commands and why did people have to rewrite their bot codes from scratch? I mean commands without slash still work with prefixes on so many bots
