no stop i made over 1k keys no stop

i spammed it to much it sends over 25 images a min

been running since he helped

no restarts nothing

2 hours then

[smoky sinew]

stop as in pause

your bot won't even respond to any commands while that request is happening

[slate swan]

Hey, im having trouble accessing and api endpoint and i really need help, its urbandictonary API. ```py

[tribal wren]

bro i dont know anything about python discord bots

[smoky sinew]

i mean i can help but you're not listening

[tribal wren]

i got my help and its been spammed by over 1k people and No pause / crash / stop

[smoky sinew]

sure

[smoky sinew]

i didn't say i doubted you

[slate swan]

Can anyone help on this api endpoint im getting? py 'ClientResponse' object is not subscriptable

[smoky sinew]

you're doing x['list'] instead of f['list']

[tribal wren]

u said "sure" which people use as example
ME : i just got 150 kills in fortnite in 1 game
friend : Sure
u cant get 150 kills in fortnite in 1 game

[slate swan]

ah im stupid thanks 😂

[smoky sinew]

also, you shouldn't create a new aiohttp client session every time you run your command, you should have one client session that you reuse, here's an example

[tribal wren]

https://tenor.com/view/family-guy-stewie-griffin-gone-crazy-insane-letter-l-gif-17135412

[sick birch]

my face when i enter this channel

[tribal wren]

lol

ima go work on my bot

[smoky sinew]

class DiscordBot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__()
        # add anything else here
    
    async def setup_hook(self):
        self.client_session = await aiohttp.ClientSession()
    
    async def close(self):
        await self.client_session.close()
        await super().close()

bot = DiscordBot(...)

@slate swan

[slate swan]

interesting, ill def try that thanks 🙂

anyone able to help or point me in the right direction?

[smoky sinew]

if you ask your question maybe

how would we know though

[slate swan]

I posted it already

from here

didn't want to spam

[smoky sinew]

you can paste your code using https://paste.pythondiscord.com or use a discord codeblock if it's short

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

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

[slate swan]

and then paste the link here?

[smoky sinew]

yeah

[slate swan]

I know to paste it here, just wasn't sure if it was ok too

can anyone help?

[smoky sinew]

did you read the error though? AttributeError: 'Interaction' object has no attribute 'add_reaction'

[tribal wren]

yes

[smoky sinew]

are you using pycord?

[tribal wren]

yes

[smoky sinew]

look at what ctx.respond returns

interaction, and interaction has an attribute named original_message

[tribal wren]

ok

[smoky sinew]

or original_response is probably what you want

[tribal wren]

@bot.slash_command(description="Verify command")
async def verify(ctx):
    member = ctx.author
    number = random.randint(1, 5)
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f"Verification - Pick the number {number}", color=0x00ff00)
    embed.add_field(name="You have 3 tries to pick the correct number!", value="React with the corresponding emoji to pick your number.", inline=False)
    message = await ctx.respond(embed=embed)

    # Add reactions to the original message
    for emoji in ['1️⃣', '2️⃣', '3️⃣', '4️⃣', '5️⃣']:
        await message.add_reaction(emoji)

    def check(reaction, user):
        return user == member and str(reaction.emoji) in ['1️⃣', '2️⃣', '3️⃣', '4️⃣', '5️⃣'] and reaction.message.id == message.id

this what makes no since

sense *

that should work right? @smoky sinew

looks like what it should

[smoky sinew]

ctx.respond doesn't return message, it returns interaction like i said

you are confusing yourself

[tribal wren]

oh

[tribal wren]

yes

[smoky sinew]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Interaction.original_response

interaction = await ctx.respond(embed=embed)
message = await interaction.original_response()

[tribal wren]

ok

@smoky sinew nm i was a dumbass again

i had
@bot.slash_command(description="Verify command")
@bot.slash_command(description="Verify command")
not
@bot.slash_command(description="Verify command")

[smoky sinew]

ok

[ionic garden]

is there a text input ui component?
context: pagination in embeds

[sick birch]

How are those related

[sick birch]

No

We're not at that level of interactivity yet 😛

Though it would be cool to see

[smoky sinew]

only in modals

[austere vale]

  #dm user
  @nextcord.slash_command(description="DMs a user a message from Runa.")
  @application_checks.has_permissions(administrator=True)
  async def dm(self, interaction, user:nextcord.Member, *,message, attachment:nextcord.Attachment=None):
    try:     
      await user.send(f'You have received a message from {interaction.guild.name}: \n{message}')
      await interaction.send(f"I have sent {user.mention} the message: {message}")
      if attachment:
        await user.send(attachment)
    except Exception:
      await interaction.send(f"Failed to DM {user.mention}.")

im trying to use this slash command to send images and it works. but does anyone know how to modify it so i can send multiple attachments at once?

[smoky sinew]

i don't think you can have a list of parameters with slash commands

[austere vale]

a okay

thank u

[polar ice]

Hey sorry if its wrong channel, but any ideas why my files are showing up like this when downloading them via FTP

[vale wing]

Wrong encoding or those are not text files

How do you create these files

[polar ice]

Theyre downloaded from my server host for a game. never had this issue before @vale wing

If i open them in notepad theyre fine

[shrewd apex]

install the plugin it shows an option on top

[polar ice]

@shrewd apex I tried, still nothing 🤔

[shrewd apex]

after installing restart py charm

also make sure to associate log files with their appropriate type when opening

[shrewd apex]

btw ur pycharm update is pending

[polar ice]

updating pycharm now. ill give it a try

[slate swan]

you shouldnt update pycharm just delete it and use vscode

[vale wing]

😠

[hushed galleon]

it does look like there's real content in between all those null bytes, but i would suggest making another help post and including your current code

[vale wing]

What encoding does it show

[slate swan]

if you want multiple attachments try asking for a message url/ID which has those attachments instead of an attachment option maybe

or allow both choices

[austere vale]

do you know if its possible to send a list/array of attachments into a slash command?

[slate swan]

it's not

[austere vale]

okay thank you, i think your message id suggestion is clever

[polar ice]

@vale wing encoding is ascii

[vale wing]

Then just change the encoding in pycharm

You are opening it with UTF-8

[polar ice]

just head into settings?

[vale wing]

Check out bottom right corner, you should be able to specify encoding there

[polar ice]

tried US-ascii still not showing properly :/

[ocean dragon]

Should I just raise an exception in is_staff check if it's false so that I can handle it in the error handler?

    def is_staff(interaction: discord.Interaction) -> bool:
        role = interaction.user.get_role(config.role.staff)
        return role is not None

    @app_commands.check(is_staff)
    @app_commands.command(name="ping", description="Ping Pong")
    async def ping(self, interaction: discord.Interaction) -> None:
        ...

since the error is discord.app_commands.errors.CheckFailure by default

[polar ice]

@vale wing awesome, fixed it 🙂 utf-16le

[ocean dragon]

like this

def is_staff(interaction: discord.Interaction) -> bool:
    role = interaction.user.get_role(config.role.staff)
    if role is None:
        raise exceptions.InvalidPermissionsException()
    
    return True

[naive briar]

Just return false

[ocean dragon]

but I want to handle it in error handler

[ocean dragon]

like so

async def on_error(interaction: Interaction, error: app_commands.AppCommandError) -> None:
    if isinstance(error, exceptions.InvalidPermissionsException):
        return await interaction.response.send_message("Invalid permissions!", ephemeral=True)

[slate swan]

this is what my bot will be doing, just a basic rock paper scissor

[slate swan]

Ok? So what do u want

[slate swan]

I want to make the discord bot that game, but I was getting connection errors. It was not pinging back.

[slate swan]

Can u show code and error

[slate swan]

I tried to run this

 
intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='!', intents=intents)
 
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
 
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
 
    if message.content.startswith('hi'):
        await message.channel.send('Hello!')
 
client.run('<Your Bot Token>')```

but it says, ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord'

[naive briar]

Install it 🤷

!pypi discord.py

[unkempt canyon]

discord.py v2.1.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

I'm sure I did

Try again

‘’pip install discord.py’’

I needed to update it!!

that's what it was...fff
my bad, thanks all

it's connected, but not pinging back

[quick gust]

discord.Intents.message_content = True

!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]

 
intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='!', intents=intents)
 
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
 
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
 
    if message.content.startswith('hi'):
        await message.channel.send('Hello!')
 
client.run('<Your Bot Token>')```
This is my .env file

still not getting a response from my bot

I'm following along with this
https://www.pragnakalp.com/create-discord-bot-using-python-tutorial-with-examples/

[vocal snow]

you've added the bot to your server, made it sure it can read the channel and you've enabled message content intents in the dev portal?

[slate swan]

yes

[vocal snow]

is the on_ready message printing?

and you're getting no errors?

[slate swan]

just my code runs on replit

[vocal snow]

replit is not a good place to run your bot

#965291480992321536 message

[slate swan]

oh, where should I run it

[vocal snow]

while you're still developing it, it's easiest to run it on your own computer

once you feel like it's stable and ready for use, you can choose a proper hosting service

[slate swan]

I can run it on sublime or pycharm

[shrewd fjord]

PyCharm seems good

[slate swan]

nope, no response

and now it's saying no module named discord

[shrewd fjord]

pip install discord.py

[slate swan]

I already did

[shrewd fjord]

Use venv instead if u r on pycharm

[slate swan]

and updated it

[shrewd fjord]

Trying on replit?

Maybe cause of
on_message

[slate swan]

I already did

[shrewd fjord]

do
@bot.listen() instead of @bot.event

[slate swan]

so delete async def on_message(message):

and replace it with that?

[shrewd fjord]

Does on_ready work?

[slate swan]

how can I tell?

[shrewd fjord]

Nope just replace the @bot.event

[shrewd fjord]

It should print "We have logged in as......" In console

Did u make sure to enable all intents on dev portal?

[slate swan]

that has happened before

i have logged in before

but it still was not pinging

[shrewd fjord]

.

[slate swan]

I followed that guide

I did everything in that guide

[shrewd fjord]

Ugh

Lemme check the guide

[slate swan]

thank you

[naive briar]

Sounds like average discord bots tutorials

[shrewd fjord]

Did u put the bot Token? 💀

[slate swan]

yep

[shrewd fjord]

Uh ok

Can u run it? And five a screenshot of the console?

Give*

[slate swan]

where would you like me to run it?

[shrewd fjord]

Try replit

[naive briar]

Great

[shrewd fjord]

It's working? Also it isnt a dc bot lol

[slate swan]

sorry?

yes it works

but the bot does not ping

[naive briar]

Show the code and how you're sending the command

It doesn't work doesn't explain the problem

[slate swan]

import discord

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='!', intents=intents)

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

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
print("message-->", message)

if message.author == client.user:
    return

if message.content.startswith('hi'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello!')

if message.content.startswith('image'):
    await message.channel.send(file=discord.File('download.jpg'))

if message.content.startswith('video'):
    await message.channel.send(file=discord.File('sample-mp4-file-small.mp4'))

if message.content.startswith('audio'):
    await message.channel.send(file=discord.File('file_example_MP3_700KB.mp3'))

if message.content.startswith('file'):
    await message.channel.send(file=discord.File('sample.pdf'))

client.run('my key')

[slate swan]

my bad

import discord

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='!', intents=intents)

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

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return

if message.content.startswith('hi'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello!')

client.run('my key')

[naive briar]

And how did you send the command?

[slate swan]

sorry, what command?

[shrewd fjord]

He is using on_message xd

[naive briar]

Same thing

[slate swan]

she

[shrewd fjord]

My bad

[slate swan]

why you making fun of me

[shrewd fjord]

:-:?

[slate swan]

I think the bot is offline

it's not showing up in my server

said it joined only

[slate swan]

how do I use aiohttp for my bot to check a specific channel for any message and if the message has a user id send that person a dm

[slate swan]

Kindly go through discord.py library it doest work like that

!d discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord

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

Creating a Bot account is a pretty straightforward process.

Similar names: disnake.discord, nextcord.discord

[alpine cove]

why not use d.py instead of aiohtto?

[slate swan]

there are some issues hehe

some issues

[maiden fable]

what are the issues

I am sure u r gonna have more issues if u send raw requests ngl

[alpine cove]

sounds like someone tryna selfbot

[alpine cove]

yea lmao

[slate swan]

nah I made that long time ago

[alpine cove]

0-0

yk thats against the tos

[slate swan]

its patched

and its a long time ago anyways

I need help beacuse..... heres a story

[alpine cove]

u can still selfbot so wydym by patched?

[maiden fable]

lets skip that topic, shall we

[slate swan]

my bot very good bot is on discordbotlist site
when someone upvote my bot I need them to receive a dm saying thank you
the discordbotlist has a webhook which sends the person's user id in the channel
bot sees the channel user id and sends them a dm saying thank you
message content needed for this but discord says no no no
hence I have to use aiohttp for this purpose

[slate swan]

nahhh

[maiden fable]

Still won't work ngl
If u don't have messages content, then won't work even if u send raw requests

Can I get a link of the bot list please?

[slate swan]

check dm cant send here cuz of rules

[maiden fable]

Sure

[slate swan]

soooo what if I use selenium and use it to check any new message in that discord channel and then connect the bot lines of code and send them a dm

[maiden fable]

Nonono why being so difficult

Just setup a web server which will receive the webhook events, instead of sending the webhook messages to a channel

Just run a web server with yr bot. Use quart or smth idk

[slate swan]

I have not much info in hosting but I have a vps

can I do with that?

[maiden fable]

Sure

[sick birch]

Doesn't even have to be bundled with your bot

Separate web app like Flask that POSTs to Discord with a thank you message

[maiden fable]

You can use aiohttp web for a simple web server, and send requests to Discord whenever your web servers receives an event

[sick birch]

Mmhm

Personally I'd go with an AWS lambda function

Since this is serverless

[maiden fable]

Idk anything about AWS, so don't expect anything from me

[slate swan]

sooo I have to make a web server which checks for any new upvoters and then make that web server to tell my bot to send that person dm?

[maiden fable]

No

You make a web server, and create an endpoint which will receive requests whenever the webhook is fired, that is, whenever a person votes. Then, you send a request to Discord via aiohttp

[sick birch]

It doesn't poll

Web server just listens for webhook

[maiden fable]

You should checkout how web server works and how to create one. It will be clearer that way

[slate swan]

hmmm alright i will take a look into that

thanks for the help

[maiden fable]

The idea behind the same is smth like this:

import flask
import requests

app = flask.App()


@app.route("/vote-webhook")
def vote(request):    # request parameter represents the payload send by the API
    payload = request.payload
    . . .     # access the payload dict and send the necesaary request to Discord with requests 

This is sync, but u can make it async with FastAPi

[abstract moss]

So, I install discord.py for create a bot, and sometimes the module isn't import in my new script. I went to see whatever in its folder and there are still the same as installed. I uninstalled and reinstall it for many times already, and then it works. Wow.

So, the next two days. It didn't work agian ;-;

[shrewd apex]

no need for seperate webserver u can run a websockets listener along with the bot

[shrewd apex]

1. Most discord libs conflict so u can have only one per env
2. Make sure u have it installed on the same python version/interpreter u are using to run ur code
3. If u installed in a venv make sure to activate venv before running the project

[slate swan]

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to make cooldowns but it writes minutes and seconds and not 175.65 seconds

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

Note

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

The overwrites parameter can be used to create a ‘secret’ channel upon creation. This parameter expects a dict of overwrites with the target (either a Member or a Role) as the key and a PermissionOverwrite as the value.

[gusty flax]

what does the overwrite do tho. like how does it make it the secret channel only that user and staff can see?

[naive umbra]

lets say there is a claim ticket command like this:

@bot.command()
async def claim_ticket(ctx): pass

and assuming there is a category already set up with the correct permissions for the moderators/staff members that should be able to read and respond, then all you need to do is to sync the new channel with the category, which is done automatically when passing a category object to the category argument:

username = ctx.author.name.casefold()
# replace `0` with the category id
category = ctx.guild.get_channel(0) or await ctx.guild.fetch_channel(0)
channel = await ctx.guild.create_text_channel(
    name="ticket-{username}",
    category=category,
)

that will successfully create the channel that is in-sync with the category, but you also need to add the member to the channel, i actually forgot how to do it correctly and the docs confused me a lil bit, but you can do that with the discord.PermissionOverwrite object and passing it to create_text_channel but I figured you can try this instead:

permissions = discord.Permission()
permissions.send_messages = True
permissions.read_message_hisotry = True

overwrites = discord.PermissionsOverwrite.from_pair(permissions)
await channel.edit(overwrites={ctx.author.user:overwrites})

this should work but you can try

[naive umbra]

^

[gusty flax]

thank u so much. ye i got to it all except the last part. tysm 🙂

[naive umbra]

i mean, the code is quite readable, you just create a permission object and allowing send_messages and read_message_history (i did a typo for "history" in the above code so correct that), then you just create an overwrite object that inherits from the permissions object, which then you create a mapping with the user and pass it as an argument to overwrites to the channel edit

[sick birch]

Like, in this server?

[naive umbra]

i just dont know if thats the exact correct way of doing it, but as far as i understood from the docs is that should be correct

[naive umbra]

no just regular ticket channels where users can talk to mods

like modmail, but not in dms

[sick birch]

weeeeeeell

the discord API provides you with all channels

Even ones you don't have access to see

BUT is undocumented behavior and is TOS violating soooo

Take that how you will

[naive umbra]

you cant view the messages if thats what you mean

[sick birch]

Nah

[naive umbra]

you just know it exists

[sick birch]

But you can see the channels (which are often user IDs or user names)

Personally seems like a security flaw to me

[slate swan]

heyy, I need some help please

So I am trying to run this code but when i try running it and type the command I get the response that it worked, but when I look in the DB nothing was added

import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands
import mysql.connector
from typing import Literal
from utils.functions import *
from utils.constants import *
from utils.embeds import *


    # Connect to the database
mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
            host="127.0.0.1",
            user="bam",
            password="bambam",
            database="one_piece"
        )
cursor = mydb.cursor()



class Drops(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot)-> None:
        self.bot=bot

    @app_commands.command(name="drop_shards", description="drop shards")
    @app_commands.describe(amount="the amount you want to drop", element="Which element do you want shards from?")
    async def drop_shards(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, amount: int, element: Literal['Fire', 'Water', 'Dark', 'Earth', 'Light', 'Lightning','Grass', 'Neutral']):
        if amount < 0:
            await interaction.response.send_message("Mehh provide a number over 0 smh")
            return
        else:
            element = element.lower()
            cursor.execute(f"UPDATE {element}_shards SET amount = amount +%s WHERE player_id =%s", (amount, interaction.user.id))
            mydb.commit()
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"Successfully added {amount} {element} Shards to your profile")



async def setup(bot: commands.Bot)-> None:
    await bot.add_cog(
        Drops(bot),
        guilds=[discord.Object(id=1052225383065456752)]
    )

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to make cooldowns but it writes minutes and seconds and not 175.65 seconds

[naive umbra]

yeah so the ```py
permissions = discord.Permission()
permissions.send_messages = True
permissions.read_message_hisotry = True

overwrites = discord.PermissionsOverwrite.from_pair(permissions)
await channel.edit(overwrites={ctx.author.user:overwrites})

should work correctly, but there is an easier way which is just:
```py
await channel.set_permissions(
    ctx.author, read_messages=True,
    send_messages=False
)

so you'd have this:

@bot.command()
async def claim_ticket(ctx):
    category_id = 0  # replace `0` with the category id
    category = ctx.guild.get_channel(category_id) or await ctx.guild.fetch_channel(category_id)

    channel = await ctx.guild.create_text_channel(
        name="ticket-{username}",
        category=category,
    )

    await channel.set_permissions(
        ctx.author,
        read_messages=True,
        send_messages=True
    )

tho i would recommend adding more checks like if the bot has the permission to create channels, etc...

[naive umbra]

doesn't seem to be any issues with the discord.py related code, this should go in #databases

[naive umbra]

could you elaborate what's not writing in minutes and seconds?

a cooldown message?

in that case, this is also un-relevant to discord.py, create a post in #1035199133436354600 and ask about how you can convert seconds into minutes:seconds

[slate swan]

Like “you can use this command in 2m and 2s

[slate swan]

Oh thanks!

[slate swan]

Alright, thank you very much😅

why am i having this problem?
discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.Roll' raised an error: SyntaxError: did you forget parentheses around the comprehension target? (Roll.py, line 181)

[forest oyster]

does someone know how to make my bot send messages like this?:

[austere vale]

what does it mean when a guild becomes available/unavailable? like is it when a server gets deleted or something?

[austere vale]

you want that specific ticket command? (itll take a lot of code)
or just slash commands?

[forest oyster]

Ok someone already told me

is with 'ephemeral=True'

[austere vale]

oki

[forest oyster]

thanks btw

[austere vale]

npp

[slate swan]

okay, first thing fixed

guys, how do i get the lenght of a list and store it into a variable?

[velvet compass]

your_variable = len(your_list)

[slate swan]

iirc it means server outage

[austere vale]

ah okay thank you

[slate swan]

it's because it shows me this output:

'list' object has no attribute 'len'

[velvet compass]

Did you overwrite list somewhere

[slate swan]

start and end are assuciated with 2 lists

[velvet compass]

Do len(start), len(end)

[slate swan]

a question, is there a way of using try except and when except it returns null?

[sick birch]

API outages

[austere vale]

ah okay thank you

  #emojis update
  @commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_guild_emojis_update(self, guild:nextcord.Guild, before, after):
    embed=nextcord.Embed(color=0xfd9fa1, title='Emojis Updated',timestamp=datetime.datetime.utcnow(),description=f'Before: {before}\nAfter:{after}')
    await self.bot.get_channel(channelID).send(embed=embed)

can someone help me with this code? i want to show the emoji that got added/removed but im not sure how to pull up the specific emoji.
i cant do it as it is right now, because with several hundred emojis the embed wont send at all due to 6000 character limit

[sick birch]

You will have to write up a little algorithm that calculates the difference between emojis before and after

[graceful ermine]

How could I detect bad words in a interaction command?

[sick birch]

Not sure if emoji objects are hashable

If so, you can set op them

[slate swan]

I have already done that

the bot had joined my server

it's just not online

[austere vale]

ah thank you robin, i’ll see if i can figure out how to make that algorithm

[torn sail]

i think all discord objects are hashable in dpy

[spice zenith]

does somebody knows how to add a cooldown to a command?

[slate swan]

Theoretically the answer to that question is no, but send the error because I'm sure it's not impossible to fix

[spice zenith]

.

[slate swan]

send the code please (you probably just called a variable before it was assigned)

[limpid mirage]

yes i can

i was gifted with the superpower of fixing only impossible to fix issues

[slate swan]

Truly wonderful

[spice zenith]

then help me add a cooldown on my command cause im so lost

[limpid mirage]

this dont lok like all da code !!!

[limpid mirage]

giv code or dm it or something and tell me

do pastebin or something of that nature

[slate swan]

Where do you get that error because it works on my machine?

[cloud dawn]

Replace if message.author.id == bot.user: with if message.author.id == message.guild.me.id:

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.me

property me```
Similar to [`Client.user`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.user "discord.Client.user") except an instance of [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member"). This is essentially used to get the member version of yourself.

[cloud dawn]

https://tenor.com/view/programmer-developer-debugging-code-testing-fixing-gif-7663766

Do you have a full error?

I don't really know what it means without it.

Yeah because you can't reference it that way... hmm

Brain is working for a quick fix.

Really quick would be global but I despise it.

[desert badger]

user = self.client.get_user(int(userid)) returns none why lol

[cloud dawn]

Because it isn't cached most likely

[cloud dawn]

user = self.client.get_user(int(userid)) or await self.client.fetch_user(int(userid))

[slate swan]

So I have my bot online and in my server, but it's not responding

import discord

@client.event

    computer_choice = random.choice(options)
    choices = {"player": player_choice.content, "computer": computer_choice}
    result = check_win(choices["player"], choices["computer"])
    await ctx.send(result)

def check_win(player, computer):
    if player == computer:
        return "It's a draw" 
    elif player == "Rock":
        if computer == "Scissors":
            return "You Rocked it's world!"
        else:

        else:

I need to add a print statement above player_choice. Would it be a simple print("Please enter, Rock, Paper, Scissor") ?

[spring verge]

How to overcome the challenge of everyone role needing external emoji perm despite the bot having it

Like bot can't show external emojis if everyone role doesn't have them

[vital glacier]

Anyone in here who can help me proper setup my pool connection for postgresql & asyncpg using a setup_hook?

[smoky sinew]

are you typing in !play_rock_paper_scissors?

and also why would you use a print statement in a discord bot? it will only be visible in your terminal

[tribal wren]

How does this look

i will change Verify Number in Failed

[smoky sinew]

are you still using requests bruh

[tribal wren]

no

[smoky sinew]

aiohttp?

[tribal wren]

kidna

[smoky sinew]

wdym kinda

[tribal wren]

/kaɪ.ndə/ used in writing to represent an informal way of saying "kind of": I was kinda sorry to see him go.

[smoky sinew]

that doesn't explain anything

[fading marlin]

lmao what

[smoky sinew]

you either use it or you don't

[tribal wren]

rate the damn bot 0-10 for verify

[smoky sinew]

having the user confirm a one digit number isn't effective for verification

so 5

[tribal wren]

its a emoji

lol

[smoky sinew]

like 1️⃣?

[tribal wren]

yes

[smoky sinew]

you realize you can just get the name of the emoji lol

[tribal wren]

yes

[smoky sinew]

that's even worse

[tribal wren]

its custom

from my server

[smoky sinew]

you can still get the emoji name and map it to a number

[fading marlin]

the embed thingy (how things are positioned) could use a rework imo

[tribal wren]

i stole default emojis

[smoky sinew]

what's the point of that though

[polar ice]

Hey, i've created an embed with 2 buttons. i've then got a command which i type into a channel and it posts. it all works perfectly and i click the button and it works. but when i re-start my bot and go to click those same buttons i get interaction failed? any ideas why?

class ClaimWelcomePack(discord.ui.View):  # welcome pack to pack buttons
    @discord.ui.button(label="Register", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def button_register(self, button, interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message('welcome pack claimed')

using Pycoord

[tribal wren]

its step 1

[smoky sinew]

just generate an image containing the number text like an actual captcha which will prevent pretty much all spam

[tribal wren]

there are 3 steps

step 1
Simple Image
Step 2
"Captcha"
Step 3
custom captcha~~ -~~
Pattern

[fading marlin]

your button isn't persistent. If you want the button to work after restart, make it persistent. See https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/persistent.py for an example

[smoky sinew]

ok

i'm guessing you're still using requests though

[tribal wren]

https://tenor.com/view/styropyro-gif-26210550

https://tenor.com/view/noo-styropyro-answer-is-no-yell-gif-14175446

u the no

[smoky sinew]

explaining what you didn't explain anything

[polar ice]

@fading marlin So i have to make a command to call it? Is there an easier way to do this automatically some how?

[smoky sinew]

no you just add the view when your bot starts to make it persistent

[tribal wren]

@smoky sinew i am mostly discord.js for bots not python

[smoky sinew]

discord.js has some async concepts too you know

[tribal wren]

wonder full auto images

[smoky sinew]

?

ok???

[tribal wren]

requests

lol

[smoky sinew]

yeah??

you are gonna shoot yourself in the foot with that but ok

[slate swan]

yes I tried !play_rock_paper_scissors it won't respond

[smoky sinew]

is there any error?

[tribal wren]

check term

[slate swan]

nope, no response from bot

[slate swan]

what?

[tribal wren]

its with print '

[slate swan]

sorry what?

[smoky sinew]

check if the command is running at all maybe

[slate swan]

how do I do that?

[fading marlin]

add a print to your command...

[smoky sinew]

with a print statement or a debugger

[tribal wren]

✅

[smoky sinew]

and is the bot logging in?

[polar ice]

so i can just

self.add_view(PersistentView())

when my bot first starts?@smoky sinew

[fading marlin]

yes

[smoky sinew]

that works

[slate swan]

I think my pycharm is not using discord.py

miight be why

[fading marlin]

what's that supposed to mean? if you didn't have discord.py installed you would've gotten an error saying that the module could not be located

[slate swan]

this is everything I have installed

so does pycharm need to use a different interpreter other than python 3.10?

[fading marlin]

unless you want to use another one, no?

[slate swan]

it's discord.py I need to be using?

because pycharm says no module called discord

yet it's installed

[smoky sinew]

it already does

it uses a virtual environment by default

[slate swan]

do I add discord.py here?

[smoky sinew]

you'll need to install discord.py through pycharm or switch the pycharm interpreter

[clever lotus]

so i need some help with the API portal

[smoky sinew]

no, just double tap "shift" and search for packages

you can add discord.py there

[slate swan]

where? it does not work on that screen

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean where? let me open pycharm

[clever lotus]

also im in python 3.11, how do i get discord.py in there?

i dont have anything installed, should i have anything installed

[slate swan]

you said double tap shift. I did. Nothing happened

[smoky sinew]

pip install discord.py on windows, pip3 install discord.py on mac or linux

[smoky sinew]

i'm used to intellij, it might be different on pycharm

you should get a search box when you press it twice, just tested it

[clever lotus]

inside python right

[smoky sinew]

no, it's a terminal command

[slate swan]

on create project screen?

where did you press shift twice

[smoky sinew]

no, when you're editing your code

[clever lotus]

ok

[clever lotus]

?

[smoky sinew]

you're not on mac or linux though

[slate swan]

beast! it's installed there now

[clever lotus]

i tried pip before

it doesnt work either

[smoky sinew]

try python -m pip install discord.py then, if you don't have python installed get it from https://python.org and make sure to check "add to path" when installing it (don't install it from microsoft store)

[clever lotus]

also i thought you meant on windows its pip3

i have it installed

in fact its running right now

[smoky sinew]

ok

[clever lotus]

but it says it wasnt found

[smoky sinew]

then how did you run it

you mean pip wasn't found or python wasn't found?

if it's pip, did you do a custom installation when installing python?

[slate swan]

I get 2023-02-23 1315 ERROR discord.client Ignoring exception in on_ready

[smoky sinew]

?

[slate swan]

when I run the script in pycharm

[clever lotus]

installed right off of python.org

[smoky sinew]

why are you using completely different code there?

[clever lotus]

i dunno what pycharm is i just took python from python.org and thats how i installed it

and how i run it

[smoky sinew]

you have three options:

• reinstall python from python.org and check "add to path" when installing
• open windows' "edit system environment variables" page and add the python path to the PATH variable
• type out the whole path when running python "C:\PythonPathHere\... -m pip install discord.py

by "python path" i mean the python exe file, to find it just press "open file location" when searching for python in the start menu

[clever lotus]

i have it in D:\ but yeah alr

[slate swan]

I have spent 3 days on this, I think I might come back to it in 6 months when I am better at coding

thanks for your help

[smoky sinew]

if it goes to a shortcut page, press open file location a second time on the shortcut

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout = None)
    ...

[clever lotus]

i installed it to a folder called python btw so

[smoky sinew]

not the folder

the exe file

[clever lotus]

oh

did i already do it

[smoky sinew]

also you don't have to give up completely, i can help see what the problem is, i'm just confused on why you posted two different pieces of code

ok

well then how do i put in the code into the bot

[smoky sinew]

that's strange

[smoky sinew]

i can give you a simple example of a discord bot if you'd like

would you like an example with message commands or slash commands?

[clever lotus]

well like, i havethe code but I dunno how to make it go into the discord bot

the discord API portal confuses me

[polar ice]

am i right in using bot?

async def on_ready():
    await set_bot_status()
    await reloadbuttons(bot)```

[clever lotus]

but i would also like to see an example cuz some of this i got from realpython

[smoky sinew]

have you tried using add_view in setup_hook instead like the persistent example showed?

[smoky sinew]

sure

you need to go to https://discord.com/developers/applications and make a new application

once you've made one, go to the bot tab, press "add bot" and then copy your token

invite the bot in the "url generator" tab under oauth2, with the bot scope and optionally application.commands scope if you want slash commands

[clever lotus]

message commands btw, i made stuff with message commands

[polar ice]

No, only tried what you mentioned here. 🙂

[smoky sinew]

from discord.ext import commands
import discord

bot = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix = "!", # the bot prefix you want to use
    intents = discord.Intents.default() # what data you are subscribing to receive from discord
)

@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    await ctx.reply(f"hello, {ctx.author.mention}")

bot.run("your bot token should go here")

[clever lotus]

ok

so instead of having it respond to a message, itll just be the prefix?

[smoky sinew]

yes

it will just be !hello

[clever lotus]

also what part of the code should that go

[smoky sinew]

that's all of the code

[clever lotus]

top?

i see, so could i add multiple commands and potentially minigames

[smoky sinew]

yeah

you can add onto that however you like

potentially copy and paste code from the realpython example too, but if it's using on_message commands, i recommend switching it over to the new message command system

[clever lotus]

yeah its using on_message

give me a second

[smoky sinew]

alright, well try something like this:

class DiscordBot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    
    async def setup_hook(self):
        await self.add_view(ClaimWelcomePack())

and then you can replace commands.Bot with DiscordBot, if you don't have your own bot class already

[clever lotus]

yeah its if message.content == 'what they would have to say'

[smoky sinew]

that's very old

[clever lotus]

so should i just

deplete of that stuff?

when i pasted it into python, half of it was like... errors but i dunno if that was just with discord or not

[smoky sinew]

you don't have to delete it, just switch it over because that way of making commands wasn't relevant since 2016

the command logic should mostly be the same, just the argument parts and the actual command parts are different

[slate swan]

it's ok, I'm not wasting another second on it for now

[clever lotus]

should i still do the client-bot conversion

[polar ice]

class DiscordBot(commands.Bot

commands.Bot is erroring. not defined? Not sure if im putting that code in the right place?

[smoky sinew]

well, do you have from discord.ext import commands imported?

you should put it in your main file

[polar ice]

No i dont have that, should i add it? i just have
import discord
using Pycoord

[clever lotus]

what is "#what data you are subscribing to recieve from discord"

[smoky sinew]

i don't know pycord, but i guess so @polar ice

[smoky sinew]

in the context of the discord API, intents is how discord knows what kind of information to send to your bot

if you have a typing intent (which is automatically included in discord.Intents.default()), your bot will be notified when people start typing in a channel

there are also privileged intents, which if you're in over 100 servers you need to apply to subscribe to

[clever lotus]

so do i just put like

uhh

so do i want to put like messages or sumn?

[smoky sinew]

there are messages and message_content

message_content is privileged and not included in discord.Intents.default, which you need for making message commands

messages is not privileged however

[clever lotus]

ok so i put message_content

i just want it to reply something after someone says something with a command

so if they did QK randnumgame it would do a random number game for example

[smoky sinew]

i'm not sure if you need message content but it would be something like this:

from discord.ext import commands
import discord

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

bot = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix = "!", # the bot prefix you want to use
    intents = intents # what data you are subscribing to receive from discord
)

@bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    await ctx.reply(f"hello, {ctx.author.mention}")

bot.run("your bot token should go here")

[clever lotus]

right ok so how do i put it into the bot

[smoky sinew]

that is the bot though

it connects using the bot token, the bot token basically acts as a password

which is why i said to copy it

[clever lotus]

ahhhh, i see

i did copy it

[vital glacier]

Anyone in here who can help me proper setup my pool connection for postgresql & asyncpg using a setup_hook?

[smoky sinew]

paste it in where it says "your bot token should go here"

[clever lotus]

so basically, i put it into python?

[smoky sinew]

yes, but not the python window

you need a code editor, paste the code into it, and run it with python

[clever lotus]

so which should i download

[smoky sinew]

i recommend vscode, or pycharm if you'd like

rip atom :(

[clever lotus]

visual studio code

alright

[smoky sinew]

https://code.visualstudio.com/

or https://vscodium.com/

[clever lotus]

pygame is best for game making ?

[smoky sinew]

sure

i mean, python's not great for game making, but it's the most popular library

[clever lotus]

yea

so in VSC do i just open up python or whatever has to do with python and put the code in?

[smoky sinew]

vscode will just use the python that you already have

and it has a built-in run button

[clever lotus]

alr

one min

[ionic garden]

what would a good way of keeping the history of a bot's commands?
how i'm doing it rn is writing it to a text file

[smoky sinew]

like who is using them?

[ionic garden]

just a log of commands
person a used x command on timestamp

[smoky sinew]

app commands?

[desert badger]

            if not inter.author.guild_permissions.administrator:
                return await inter.response.send_message("You don't have Administrator Permissions!", ephemeral = True)
```  doesnt wrok dam ![sadge](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1065346859121516634.webp?size=128 "sadge")

oh it it maybe inter user

[ionic garden]

uh i'm using hybrid commands

[smoky sinew]

try making a global check maybe

or using the on_command event

[polar ice]

Is anybody familiar with Pycoord?

im trying to make a button persistant. ive done everything which it says in the docs but still nothing

[smoky sinew]

did you import from discord.ext import commands

try that in your main file, i'm not sure how you're making commands

[polar ice]

@smoky sinew py @bot.slash_command(name="server", description="Server status") async def server(ctx):

Im using slash commands

[clever lotus]

ok so i pasted the code into a VSC file

do i have to install the python thing that it prompts

[smoky sinew]

just import it anyways

[smoky sinew]

yeah, that will help

[polar ice]

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/ui-components/buttons
in here, if i do the test command it shows the buttoms and that works. but not the original.

Ill try import them now

[smoky sinew]

make sure you pressed ctrl + shift + p in vscode and typed in "select interpreter" and chose your python 3.11 @clever lotus

[clever lotus]

it keeps having an error

[smoky sinew]

what error?

[clever lotus]

when i install it

[smoky sinew]

i'm not sure if add_view works in pycord though

[polar ice]

according to the docs it should it says
bot.add_view(MyView()) # Registers a View for persistent listening

[smoky sinew]

alright

[smoky sinew]

what is the log?

[polar ice]

Tried import from discord.ext import commands
still the same 😦

[clever lotus]

should i paste the whole log

[smoky sinew]

!paste @clever lotus

[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.

[clever lotus]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/xejuzedune

[smoky sinew]

you don't have storage

[clever lotus]

i have...

4.10 gb?

do i need to like

how do i make it install to my SD card

instead of windows

[smoky sinew]

you're installing python on an SD card?

[clever lotus]

doesnt pop up anything

[smoky sinew]

ctrl + shift + p doesn't?

[clever lotus]

yeah, i use the SD card

[clever lotus]

no, select interpreter doesnt

[smoky sinew]

yeah, you need to install python extension first

[smoky sinew]

won't it be slow?

[clever lotus]

OK i downloaded manually so i can move it to my SD

[clever lotus]

it runs just fine

[smoky sinew]

alright

[tribal wren]

can someone help

[naive briar]

Send the code

[clever lotus]

where do i move the vsix

[smoky sinew]

i don't really know

you could ask in #editors-ides, but that's why i didn't recommend installing it manually

[clever lotus]

otherwise it wouldve installed to C:\ and that barely has any space

well with the code in bot.py, will it work now?

@smoky sinew

also ok
so how do i get a valid URI?

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean?

[clever lotus]

LETS GOOO I GOT THE BOT INTO THE SERVER

but its offline

[smoky sinew]

yeah

[smoky sinew]

it should

[indigo fossil]

hey, so I haven't been developing bots for like two years on the platform so I'm a bit outdated. so now that we have slash commands, does discord.py have the support?

[clever lotus]

i dont think i need one anymore since i got the bot working, i just need it to be... online
maybe thats what this requires

[smoky sinew]

yes, it does with discord.py 2.0

[smoky sinew]

that's for the "log in with discord" thing

you don't need that

to get the bot online, you need to run the code

[clever lotus]

ahh ok i see

well where is the run button

[smoky sinew]

it might be with the python extension i don't know

it's in the top-right usually

[clever lotus]

do i need to debug

or can i just run

nvm i got python extension

oh i need to get the interpreter

ok i think i ran the code

[smoky sinew]

cool, is the bot online?

[clever lotus]

no

i have an interpreter

selected

[smoky sinew]

press the run button then

[sick birch]

Generally better to just invoke the interpreter directly than using the run button tbh

never trusted that thing

[clever lotus]

wdym invoke the interpreter

[smoky sinew]

you should still set up the vscode python extension, run button or not

it's very helpful

[smoky sinew]

he means to run python from the terminal

there's a terminal tab at the bottom of vscode

[clever lotus]

i dont see

[sick birch]

Press CTRL + `

[clever lotus]

ok

[sick birch]

That's the key to the left of the 1 key

[clever lotus]

i figured that

ok and then after i got it open

[smoky sinew]

type in <python path> <code file path>

[sick birch]

py -3 <filename>.py

(assuming you're on windows)

[smoky sinew]

you had some issues with the path earlier so if you set it already you can just use python instead of the path

[sick birch]

i believe the python launcher is recommended on windows

[clever lotus]

its TRYING

to open from C:\

NOT D:\

*I INSTALLED IT TO D:*

[smoky sinew]

that's why i said to go to "edit system environment variables" and edit the PATH variable

[clever lotus]

can i change its default path or smth

oh ok mb

[smoky sinew]

yes, that's what the path variable means

you should see a python path in there so just replace it with the other one

[clever lotus]

OK so edit

[vital glacier]

Anyone in here who can help me proper setup my pool connection for postgresql & asyncpg using a setup_hook?

[ionic garden]

no like where should i store these commands though

[smoky sinew]

like you normally would?

[polar ice]

async def process_log(log):
    print(log.name)
    if "chat_" in log.name:  # Process chat into the DB
        print(f'Processing chat for: {await get_guild()}')
        with open(log.name, 'r', encoding='utf-16le') as f:

I've also tried pointing it directly to the file path too but nothing

[naive briar]

!traceback

[unkempt canyon]

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.
While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "my_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    add_three("6")
  File "my_file.py", line 2, in add_three
    a = num + 3
        ~~~~^~~
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

If the traceback is long, use our pastebin.

[smoky sinew]

you are probably doing something with f, so the code you gave stops just before the error

[ionic garden]

how would i *log them, sorry

[polar ice]

it doesn't actually give me an error it just resets the loops and continues

[ionic garden]

in a text file, db, or something else?

[smoky sinew]

a file would work, or maybe use the logging module

databases are good if you need to retrieve the info

[ionic garden]

doesn't logging only produce some console output

[smoky sinew]

no

you can configure it to go to a text file

[ionic garden]

https://realpython.com/python-logging
this tutorial seems to be 4 yo, could you possibly see if it's still up to date?

[slate swan]

yeah it's still functional, I don't think there has been any breaking change in logging module for a long time ( or since the beginning iirc )

[stoic apex]

how to detect if slash command is used

[smoky sinew]

the standard library doesn't have breaking changes often

so you should be good

[sullen roost]

hey can anyone help because like when am using a slash command to send embed and i cant send 2 embeds in 2 seprate if statements

idk why

[naive briar]

Send the code

[slate swan]

simple question, can a bot send audio files like sfx the user can play/download directly in the client? if yes, do they need to be in a specific format?

[sullen roost]

ok wait

[naive briar]

They'd have to download it

[naive briar]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

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

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

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

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

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

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

[sullen roost]

its only sending the first if statement

[naive briar]

That's the idea of if-elif-else-statements

[stoic apex]

how to detect if slash command is used

[sullen roost]

mhm yea but like if am doing test 2 its sending the test embed not the test2 embed

ok thanks it got fixes

fixed

[shell wing]

You can print statement or smh like a logging feature that allows the bot to send a msg in a custom channel as well as running the whole cmd where it was actually ran

[shrewd fjord]

Or just use the slash command invoke event

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.Member.edit as far as i know there is a nick kwarg

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.edit

await edit(*, nick=..., mute=..., deafen=..., suppress=..., roles=..., voice_channel=..., timed_out_until=..., bypass_verification=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the member’s data.

Depending on the parameter passed, this requires different permissions listed below...

[shrewd fjord]

Here ^^^

You should use guild.get_member instead

!d discord.Guild.get_member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_member

get_member(user_id, /)```
Returns a member with the given ID.

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

[shrewd fjord]

The way u r using will return User obj and if u use guild.get_member will return member obj

Check up.
Use guild.get_member instead.

guild.get_member(self.bot.user.id)

[slate swan]

ah worked, thanks 🙂

[shrewd fjord]

[sullen roost]

How do I make the bot react to its own message using slash command?

[spice zenith]

Can someone teach me how coolsowns work on a bot?

[shell wing]

@bot.command()
@commands.cooldown(1, 10, commands.BucketType.user) # 1 use per 10s
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("pong!")

@ping.error
async def ping_error( ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
    await ctx.send("You are on cooldown!")
```smh like this

[slate swan]

if you're talking about cooldowns on a command you need the @commands.colldown decorator
for on_message and other things use !custom-cooldown in #bot-commands

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=discord.ext.commands.BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[sullen roost]

?

[shell wing]

store that msg and use await message.add_reaction(emoji)

!d discord.Message.add_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.add\_reaction

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

Adds a reaction to the message.

The emoji may be a unicode emoji or a custom guild [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Emoji "discord.Emoji").

You must have [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") to do this. If nobody else has reacted to the message using this emoji, [`add_reactions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.add_reactions "discord.Permissions.add_reactions") is required.

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

Changed in version 2.0: This function will now raise [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "(in Python v3.11)") instead of `InvalidArgument`.

and why im eepy 😂

[shell wing]

https://tenor.com/view/touhou-koishi-komeiji-touhou-project-poupro88-gif-26213274

[spice zenith]

I use that but it doesn't work

Tho I'm using bot.tree.command()

Maybe that is why^^"

[slate swan]

!d discord.app_commands.Cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Cooldown

class discord.app_commands.Cooldown(rate, per)```
Represents a cooldown for a command.

New in version 2.0.

[spice zenith]

So I have to make a class?

[slate swan]

nope I dont think so

 @app_commands.command(name="drop_shards", description="drop shards")
    @app_commands.Cooldown(1,10)
    @app_commands.describe(amount="the amount you want to drop", element="Which element do you want shards from?")
    async def drop_shards(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, amount: int, element: Literal['Fire', 'Water', 'Dark', 'Earth', 'Light', 'Lightning','Grass', 'Neutral']):
        if amount < 0:
            await interaction.response.send_message("Mehh provide a number over 0 smh")
            return
        else:
            element = element.lower()
            cursor.execute(f"UPDATE {element}_shards SET amount = amount +%s WHERE player_id =%s", (amount, interaction.user.id))
            mydb.commit()
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"Successfully added {amount} {element} Shards to your profile")```

[spice zenith]

And how would I do this if instead of prefix command it is a slash command with bot.tree?

[spice zenith]

Here apps command is same as bot tree right

And describe it is not mandatory

Right?

[naive briar]

discord.app_commands.Cooldown is not a decorator

[slate swan]

oh

sorry

[slate swan]

app_commands should be imported from discord

[jaunty parrot]

is there a way to retrieve all autocompleted choices that a discord command has?

async def channel_autocomplete(interaction: discord.Interaction, channel_id):
    completions = {channels.name:channels.id for channels in interaction.guild.voice_channels}

    return [discord.app_commands.Choice(name=channel,value=str(channelID)) for channel,channelID in completions.items()]

@bot.tree.command()
@discord.app_commands.autocomplete(channel_id=channel_autocomplete)
async def tagchannel(interaction: discord.Interaction, channel_id: str):

      #How could I get the returned list of choices?

[sullen roost]

how do i get images or pfps using an api of website
like it would send random images or the only images which it needs to send only?
with a command

[spice zenith]

i do import it

[spice zenith]

shouldnt i put something like thsi

@app_commands.cooldown(1, 3600, commands.BucketType.user)

[slate swan]

nvm my code doesnt work 😭

[spice zenith]

yeah i just realised xd

[slate swan]

I tried it and it didnt, I think you should read it in the docs

[shrewd fjord]

It doesn't work like dat tho.

[spice zenith]

could u explain me how to add a cooldown on a bot.tree.command

@bot.tree.command(name="work",description="Earn money to upgrade your "
                                          "hissatsus")

!d discord.app_commands.checks.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.cooldown

@discord.app_commands.checks.cooldown(rate, per, *, key=...)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a command.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns are based off of the `key` function provided. If a `key` is not provided then it defaults to a user-level cooldown. The `key` function must take a single parameter, the [`discord.Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction") and return a value that is used as a key to the internal cooldown mapping.

The `key` function can optionally be a coroutine.

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown") is raised to the error handlers.

Examples

Setting a one per 5 seconds per member cooldown on a command:

[shrewd fjord]

@spice zenith

[spice zenith]

does app_commands apply to bot.tree commands?

[shrewd fjord]

Yes

@bot.tree.command()
@app_commands.checks.cooldown(....)

[spice zenith]

@tree.command()
@app_commands.checks.cooldown(1, 5.0, key=lambda i: (i.guild_id, i.user.id))``` what does the key does?

and the i too

i know what rate and per does but not the rest

like key is for the type if cooldown

but what is lambda cooldown

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.ext.commands.BucketType

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.BucketType

class discord.ext.commands.BucketType```
Specifies a type of bucket for, e.g. a cooldown.

[spice zenith]

ah yeah i saw that before

[shrewd fjord]

It's like
if u wanna put
Guild cooldown
Then BucketType.guild

[spice zenith]

i wanna put it so a user can only use it once an hour so i thought it was just 1,3600

[shrewd fjord]

It will make something like after someone invoke the command, then no other in the guild can use it till cooldown finishes

There is couple of them

guild
user
member
channel

You should use member

[spice zenith]

i want user not guild tho

so instead of guild i put member right?

[shrewd fjord]

If u use user, if the user trying this on other guild, he will be still in cooldown

While member cooldown is for guild only

[shrewd fjord]

Yes.

[spice zenith]

hmmm but i want so that u can only once regardless of the srvr every each hour

[shrewd fjord]

!e
y=lambda x: x+1
print(y(1))

[unkempt canyon]

hmmmm

whats happening xD

[spice zenith]

whats this tho

[shrewd fjord]

You know functions right?

[spice zenith]

yeah

[shrewd fjord]

Uh 💀💀

lambda is similar to function but easier

[spice zenith]

oh

ig this wont work right?

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def unban(ctx, member:nextcord.Member=None):
    if member == None:
        em1 = nextcord.Embed(title="__**Unban Error**__",description="Member not found! :x:", color=nextcord.Color.red())
        return await ctx.reply(embed=em1)
    if member.id == ctx.author.id:
        em2 = nextcord.Embed(title="__**Unban Error**__",description="You can't unban yourself! :x:", color=nextcord.Color.red())
        return await ctx.reply(embed=em2)

    em5 = nextcord.Embed(title="Unban Success", description=f"{member.mention}({member.id}) Got unbanned!", color=nextcord.Color.green())
    await ctx.reply(embed=em5)    ```

and it says that member is not found

when putting the id

[spice zenith]

@shrewd fjord now it works but i would like to make so it prints that u are on cooldown with when u can do it again if u are on cooldown but i have no idea on how to do that ig it is an except Exception but more than that im lost

[sullen roost]

.

[shrewd fjord]

You should use error deco

[spice zenith]

[shrewd fjord]

Idk what did i just type lmao

Wtf

Back after checking docs

You can use global cmd handler...
@bot.tree.error
async def on_app_command_error(interaction, error):
if isinstance(error, please check the docs but maybe app_commands.OnCooldownError):

await send(..)

Hm idk fr need to check docs

[slate swan]

is there a way to make ur bot delete buttons without deleting the message content/embed

Tab key shifts right in Python IDLE. What is the left swipe hotkey?

[spice zenith]

hmmmm seems logic

[naive briar]

Just edit the message and set the view argument to None

!d discord.Message.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.edit

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

Edits the message.

The content must be able to be transformed into a string via `str(content)`.

Changed in version 1.3: The `suppress` keyword-only parameter was added.

Changed in version 2.0: Edits are no longer in-place, the newly edited message is returned instead.

Changed in version 2.0: This function will now raise [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "(in Python v3.11)") instead of `InvalidArgument`.

[unkempt mauve]

how do I use datetime to convert the bot creation time to the user's timezone.Like this: <t:1677157751:D>

[slate swan]

!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...

[slate swan]

you can get bot's creation time using bot.user.created_at

[unkempt mauve]

I know that, but how do I convert it to the user's timezone <t:1677157751:D>

[verbal hawk]

hi, I'm having a problem with slash commands. I'm currently migrating from prefix commands to slash commands. I use discord.ext.commands.Bot with the decorator @app_commands.command. I have the following command to sync the slash commands:

@bot.command()
async def sync(ctx):
    await bot.tree.sync()

It runs without errors, but does nothing, the slash commands don't show up on Discord. Any tips?

[naive briar]

Are you using it in a cog

[verbal hawk]

nope

[naive briar]

Then use bot.tree.command

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.tree

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.tree

property tree```
The command tree responsible for handling the application commands in this bot.

New in version 2.0.

[verbal hawk]

the command still doesn't appear to show up after using this and re-syncing

[naive briar]

Show the code

[verbal hawk]

@bot.tree.command(name="test", description="test")
async def fj(ctx, target_user: discord.Member, role2: discord.Role, expiration: int):
    try:    
        if ctx.channel == bot.get_channel(1045046421033848933):
        [and a lot of code after it]

[naive briar]

You'd have to sync it specifically to a guild so you don't have to wait 1hr until it pop up

[verbal hawk]

yes, the last sync was done like this:

@bot.command()
async def sync(ctx):
    await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)

[naive briar]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py#L22-L28

[unkempt canyon]

examples/app_commands/basic.py lines 22 to 28

# In this basic example, we just synchronize the app commands to one guild.
# Instead of specifying a guild to every command, we copy over our global commands instead.
# By doing so, we don't have to wait up to an hour until they are shown to the end-user.
async def setup_hook(self):
    # This copies the global commands over to your guild.
    self.tree.copy_global_to(guild=MY_GUILD)
    await self.tree.sync(guild=MY_GUILD)```

[verbal hawk]

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Context' object has no attribute 'tree'

[naive briar]

ctx.bot.tree.copy_global_to(...)

[verbal hawk]

I'm getting this error for some reason:

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'id'

[naive briar]

Show the code along with the error

And the guild argument is expected to be an object with id attribute

!d discord.Object like this one

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Object

class discord.Object(id, *, type=...)```
Represents a generic Discord object.

The purpose of this class is to allow you to create ‘miniature’ versions of data classes if you want to pass in just an ID. Most functions that take in a specific data class with an ID can also take in this class as a substitute instead. Note that even though this is the case, not all objects (if any) actually inherit from this class.

There are also some cases where some websocket events are received in [strange order](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/21) and when such events happened you would receive this class rather than the actual data class. These cases are extremely rare.

x == y Checks if two objects are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the object’s hash.

[verbal hawk]

async def sync(ctx):
    ctx.bot.tree.copy_global_to(guild=1045046418387251301)
    await ctx.tree.sync(guild=1045046418387251301)

The error:

line 70 in sync
    ctx.bot.tree.copy_global_to(guild=1045046418387251301)
  File "C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python310\site-packages\discord\app_commands\tree.py", line 246, in copy_global_to       
    mapping = self._guild_commands[guild.id].copy()
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'id'

[shrewd fjord]

guild=discord.Object(theidhere)

[verbal hawk]

thank you, this helped, but there's another problem
on the line ctx.tree.sync(...) ctx doesn't have a tree argument and I'm guessing I should use bot instead of ctx there right?

[shrewd fjord]

It will be
ctx.bot.tree.sync(...)

Yea, u can use bot too instead of ctx.bot

[verbal hawk]

thank you, it works!!

[verbal hawk]

what could I do if I need both the ctx and the discord.Interaction in a function? They both have to be the first argument

[naive briar]

Why would you need both of them

[verbal hawk]

because there is a countdown that starts, and when it ends (possibly days later) I can't send a message with interaction.response again

[naive briar]

!d discord.Interaction.followup

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.followup

Returns the follow up webhook for follow up interactions.

[naive briar]

!d discord.Interaction.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.channel

The channel the interaction was sent from.

Note that due to a Discord limitation, DM channels are not resolved since there is no data to complete them. These are PartialMessageable instead.

[naive briar]

Or that

[verbal hawk]

ooh thank you! so could I just do interaction.channel.send(...)?

[thin raft]

Can you do an autocompletion like this wirh dpy?

[fading marlin]

With images? no

[thin raft]

f

can you make it with Discord's API?

[sullen roost]

?

[thin raft]

wdym

[fading marlin]

Nope

[opaque trail]

any clue why event interaction_create doesnt work when i click the buttons, i have GUILDS and GUILD_MESSAGES intents

yesterday it worked fine

[hushed galleon]

i dont think any gateway intents are required for interaction events, but we need to see your code to give a better answer

[sullen roost]

Like it sends pfps from Pinterest

[forest oyster]

does someone know how to solve this error?

"In allowed_mentions.replied_user: must be either true or false:"

[smoky sinew]

allowedmentions is basically a true or false of what you can and cannot ping

you can only reply to one user at a time, so it's pointless to make the distinction to only ping certain users in a reply

instead, you can control the users and roles you can ping in allowedmentions by passing a list of users to allowedmentions.users

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.AllowedMentions.users

@forest oyster

[slate swan]

bro i am so confused

@smoky sinew can u help me

my command bugging

[smoky sinew]

bruh

just join the list with an empty string

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: pardoned infraction mute for @slate swan.

[velvet compass]

A screenshot is probably better

[sick birch]

FWIW they have a 2d list

the process is mostly the same but slightly different

[smoky sinew]

i mean just join the inner list items and then the outer list items

paste your code using https://paste.pythondiscord.com to avoid spam, also should you be scraping a site using a user agent?

[slate swan]

yes

[smoky sinew]

why

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/joxeqopuci

[smoky sinew]

if it's a user endpoint then you shouldn't scrape it at all

[slate swan]

im confused

[slate swan]

dw about it 😁

[smoky sinew]

it can be against the server rules

[slate swan]

😭

i just need help plss

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

i already gave help with that though

[slate swan]

what do u do then

[smoky sinew]

did you see this?

[slate swan]

im deadass stupid

it dont work i tried it

[smoky sinew]

it worked inside the bot

[slate swan]

idk

can u fix it for me??

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

i can help you with what problem you're having but i can't code your program for you

[slate swan]

idk im confused as hell

[sick birch]

my_2d_list = [["row 1 col 1", "row 1 col 2"], ["row 2 col 1", "row 2 col 2"]]
print("\n".join([" | ".join(row) for row in my_2d_list]))

also what's the point of this?

[sick birch]

yeah that'll do

[slate swan]

idk

[slate swan]

imports

[smoky sinew]

and you have to import numpy 5 times?

[slate swan]

i do?

[smoky sinew]

no, i'm asking why you would do that

[sick birch]

About what?

[slate swan]

bc i was bored

[smoky sinew]

you were bored so you needed to import numpy 5 times?? i don't get it

[slate swan]

lol

i was just messing around

[sick birch]

FWIW I do idly do :w when I'm thinking, lol

[slate swan]

broo

[smoky sinew]

lol

[slate swan]

the thing isnt working

i cant get it to fix

[smoky sinew]

you're not helping us understand your problem, both me and robin have provided solutions

[slate swan]

its still like this kinda dumb

[smoky sinew]

you already showed that screenshot 3 times too

show your updated code please

[slate swan]

i kinda deleted it cuz it wasent working

🤣

[smoky sinew]

ok

[slate swan]

let me

try

again

im dying

@sick birch @smoky sinew

💀

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ofowubuwah

[smoky sinew]

you don't need to ping me twice

[slate swan]

ok

[smoky sinew]

you're only joining one row together and returning immediately after

[slate swan]

what do i do then
