[radiant bough]

I think they are trying to add a member to a channel if channel name starts with ticket-

[shell wing]

maybe add print() statements after every await and all to see if the code is working or not

also ig it should just be ticket not ticket- cause - is just a visual component added by discord instead of spaces

[slate swan]

What do you want options to be?

Ah okay now i understood what is the point of this command

You could make argument options and accept different options separated by comma or so

Then split it in code

Not relevant to this channel, but okay

!d input

[unkempt canyon]

input

input()``````py

input(prompt)```
If the *prompt* argument is present, it is written to standard output without a trailing newline. The function then reads a line from input, converts it to a string (stripping a trailing newline), and returns that. When EOF is read, [`EOFError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#EOFError "EOFError") is raised. Example:

```py
>>> s = input('--> ')  
--> Monty Python's Flying Circus
>>> s  
"Monty Python's Flying Circus"
```  If the [`readline`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/readline.html#module-readline "readline: GNU readline support for Python. (Unix)") module was loaded, then [`input()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#input "input") will use it to provide elaborate line editing and history features.

Raises an [auditing event](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#auditing) `builtins.input` with argument `prompt` before reading input...

Similar names: 2to3fixer.input, rich.input

[slate swan]

soooooooooooo

[naive briar]

This function returns the input as string, so just convert it to int

[slate swan]

wym

i did it but its like this

[naive briar]

X = int(input(...))

Are you familiar with Python

Well, I don't have to guess

[slate swan]

i am i just learned the for thingy and the assignment my teacher gave me i just cant understand it

this is what she told me to do:
The Israel Trail is a long walking route divided into 44 sections. Each section has a name.
Write a program that will record the name and length of each of the 44 sections. The program will print the names
The sections that are longer than 10 km. Also, the program will calculate the total length of the Israel Trail and print
This number.

[thin raft]

Can I make a parameter accept a file?

[karmic nimbus]

idk where the problem, it says indentation Error: outer level in line 39 how to fix it?

[thin raft]

format the code

[thin trout]

how can i create a bot that sends twitch notifications when a live starts?

[thin raft]

best way to check errors

embed = discord.Embed(
  title = "This is a title",
  description = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"
)

await ctx.send(
  ctx.author.mention,
  embed = embed
)
``` for example

[thin raft]

https://github.com/akex06/Twitch2X/blob/main/Twitch2Discord.py

I think you could do smt with that, but instead of sending it on message send it when the stream starts

discord.Interaction

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

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

New in version 2.0.

[languid oxide]

hi all

quick question. I made a "local" software with python and tkinter. And I also made a discord bot.
I would like to try to add discord login to my local app, so that I can then connect it to my discord bot
so that eventually I can type something in discord, and this software does an action

is anyone here available to help?

[shrewd fjord]

As long as it's youtube

[naive briar]

Or any platform that doesn't allow it, really

If you're using an official API to stream the music then it's allowed, I guess

Code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ahusohuleq
Error: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ujijejipom

[unkempt mauve]

can u explain the thing?

[echo wasp]

explain what i'm using cogs and I am updating my bot to 2.0 from 1.7.3 and I did this before and it worked

but now it not working

[unkempt mauve]

as stated in the last line of the error, TypeError: object NoneType can't be used in 'await' expression

[echo wasp]

i have all those cogs so idk where the nonetype is from

[unkempt mauve]

are all of them each commands?

[echo wasp]

not all of them there are some defs

without a @command.commands on it

[unkempt mauve]

bot.load_extension can only load commands

[echo wasp]

then why did it load my entire cog before using that

[unkempt mauve]

There's another way u can load

using os and asyncio

create a function

[echo wasp]

it wasn't this hard before

[unkempt mauve]

u cant load on_ready as it will sometime ratelimit your bot 💀

[echo wasp]

how how should i load then because i just tossed those in the bottom of the file and they got loaded

without an on_ready even

[unkempt mauve]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.load\_extension

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

Loads an extension.

An extension is a python module that contains commands, cogs, or listeners.

An extension must have a global function, `setup` defined as the entry point on what to do when the extension is loaded. This entry point must have a single argument, the `bot`.

Changed in version 2.0: This method is now a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-coroutine "(in Python v3.11)").

[echo wasp]

setup point telling it what todo

[unkempt mauve]

what do you have in your main py

[echo wasp]

the main photo i sent

[unkempt mauve]

u need to make a function

[echo wasp]

by doing what

[slate swan]

definition of bot?

[echo wasp]

anything reguarding the bot in the file instead of client

[unkempt mauve]

async def main():
  for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'): #import os
      if filename.endswith('.py'):
        await bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')
  await bot.start('token')

asyncio.run(main()) #import asyncio```

that will load

[slate swan]

send the code where you define bot varriable

[echo wasp]

i've used it before and it wasn't libable

[unkempt mauve]

but it does load for me

u need to send us the definition of the bot then

[echo wasp]

well it isn't bot in the cogs just the main file

[hushed galleon]

this error would suggest you're still running the older version of discord.py

[slate swan]

thats the point

[echo wasp]

trying to get it updated

[unkempt mauve]

we are asking for the main file

[unkempt mauve]

pip install --upgrade discord.py

[slate swan]

pip install -U discord

[echo wasp]

gotta update the code to make it work on the newest version

[unkempt mauve]

u always need to be up-to-date

[echo wasp]

well when you havent touched it in a bit it is out of date man

[hushed galleon]

sure, but that error specifically you showed earlier is the result of not updating discord.py to 2.0 when you ran the code

[unkempt mauve]

there's nothing we can do

[echo wasp]

!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.

[hushed galleon]

in other words your on_ready is "suitably written" for discord.py 2.0, you're just not using 2.0

[echo wasp]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ilozehiwas

[hushed galleon]

well i guess its 2.2 now

[echo wasp]

I was using 1.7.3 at one point

[hushed galleon]

still getting the same nonetype error on load_extension?

[echo wasp]

yep

[hushed galleon]

might want to try reinstalling it, i.e. pip install --force-reinstall discord.py

[hushed galleon]

oh hold on that error isnt* load_extension itself

oops, the actual error is that your setup() method isnt asynchronous

[hushed galleon]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrating.html#command-extension-changes

[echo wasp]

once you said that i knew what you ment that makes so much more sense

that would make sense why it didn't work

thanks

[slate swan]

im using nextcord and it isnt like this there its something new in discordpy?

that setup has to be async function

[hushed galleon]

iirc discord.py introduced it after they went back into development, hence why most of the forks dont do the same thing

[shell wing]

Idk if this is answered yet or not, but why dont you just do this :

await interaction.response.send_message(content=f'Deleted **{amount}** messages with the reason: {reason}')```

and ig try removing len

[unkempt mauve]

I just changed and it worked but why does the bot take times to delete msgs

[shell wing]

ig it depends on ur Bot's resources

[unkempt mauve]

how do I fasten it

[shell wing]

Get better resources ?

[unkempt mauve]

huh

[shell wing]

i mean honestly i never faced such issue(s), so i dont have much info about them

[hushed galleon]

bulk message deletion has been slow for a while i think, even right now it still takes several seconds and a whole lot longer for it to actually be deleted (my messages below should have disappeared)

other people seem to be reporting the same issue discord/discord-api-docs#5974

[lament depot]

GitHub

[discord-api-docs] #5974 Bulk Delete Messages endpoint no longer functions correctly

[glad cradle]

what happens if you try to fetch these messages that should've been deleted? Do the Api returns a 404 or a 200?

[glad cradle]

👍

[plain pollen]

real quick question, with discord.py, does cog_unload run automatically when the bot loading it stops existing, i.e. at the end of execution?

[vale wing]

Iirc cogs are unloaded when the Client.close() method is called so yeah

commands.Bot.close() to be precise

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/a938b10e5a680405a99a5d0bb49e8d075fb0fecf/discord/ext/commands/bot.py#L226-L240

oh lol

[vale wing]

It was like at the same time

[languid oxide]

hi all

I'm pretty depressed lol. yesterday I was doing pretty well, today every single tutorial I watch feels like aramaic

[hushed galleon]

JSONDecodeError: Extra data means the file had a properly formatted value, but there was more data beyond said value

in your case its most likely because you're using f.seek(0) to try overwriting the file but forgetting to truncate the existing data

id suggest just opening the file twice, once to read and once to write ```py
with open("file") as f:
data = json.load(f)

with open("file", "w") as f:
json.dump(data, f)```

[hushed galleon]

does your view have a timeout? and are you adding it back to the bot when it restarts?

[twilit veldt]

Where exactly, do I need to paste it into the code?

[slate swan]

adding it back ??

Wdym

I changed the timeout to None

[hushed galleon]

well i should ask first if you want your view to still work after a restart

[slate swan]

Yeah

[hushed galleon]

then on bot startup, you need to add the view instance using Client.add_view()

[hushed galleon]

dont paste my example, just correct your current usages of r+ so they follow the pattern i described

[slate swan]

Huh... whats the difference between that and ctx.send(view=view)?

In addition, wouldnt the information be lost once the bot restarts so how can you save it?

[hushed galleon]

well send() sends a message, but add_view() is simply informing discord.py that there's a view that it should be receiving interactions from

[slate swan]

ohhh

hm, alr.

[twilit veldt]

Okay, I will test it.. I write again, if it not works..!

[twilit veldt]

I don't understand it.. Wherever it would make sense to insert it, or to replace it, errors come -.-

[thin lake]

Someone know how can i make my bot read another bots messages?

[hushed galleon]

like as their messages are sent? assuming this is in relation to the discord.py library, you'd use the on_message event and check that the author is from that bot
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/quickstart.html

[hushed galleon]

do you understand what your code needs to do to properly update the file?

[twilit veldt]

Not really

[thin lake]

I mean, its like a bot sends a message, not mine, and I would like to make my bot read this message that the other bot sent is it that possible? if yes how can i make it?

if your view doesnt have any kind of dynamic data required during initialization then adding the view is fairly easy, e.g. ```py
class MyView(discord.ui.View):
@discord.ui.button(label="Hello world!", custom_id="hello-world")
async def on_click(self, interaction, button):
await interaction.response.send_message("Hello world!")

client = discord.Client(...)
client.add_view(MyView(timeout=None))
client.run(...)``` but when your view needs more information like the original user's ID, its up to you to choose how to store that data and retrieve it, for example inserting into a database and then retrieving it on startup to re-create the view instance

[hushed galleon]

exactly how i described, the on_message event is fired for every message the bot can see so you just need to figure out if the author of the message is the bot you're interested in

[thin lake]

can i send what ive coded?

[hushed galleon]

!paste and make sure you dont show your token

[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.

[thin lake]

ok so basiclly i would make a helper bot for another bot that me and friends play, so this what i've wroted: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ozoziwebug, but the problem is that my bot are not reading messages properly, it its spaming tbh

[wanton current]

this should error

[hushed galleon]

a file with "extra data" can look like this: {"channel_id": 2468, "last_count": 1234}234} ^ Extra data this is a typical issue when you forget to truncate the file before/after writing, but when you use open("file", "w") it does the truncation for you which ensures you wont have extra data when you dump your dictionary's contents into the file

[runic whale]

Hey all, forgive me if I'm in the wrong place, but seeing a ton of questions here...

Working on a discord bot that pulls a random row out of MySQL database via connection to Python, everything works perfectly, except the random part. Does anyone have any insight on possible routes I can take to troubleshoot this? Is there a way possibly to "refresh" the MySQL connection every time the query is run, or the bot is run? New to Python, so looking for knowledge, not just a quick fix. Thanks!

[steep estuary]

can I display custom emojis in discord.py button's label?

[hushed galleon]

what williboy said, that is syntactically incorrect, but given your bot is spamming i presume you have written it like this: py @client.event async def on_message(message): if message.author.id == 571027211407196161: for word in raids_keywords: await message.channel.send(f'{message.mention.author}.') else: await message.channel.send('Nothing atm') remember what i said before?

the on_message event is fired for every message the bot can see
that means any message, from any channel, from anyone, including the bot's own messages too

also sending a bunch of messages in that for loop will get your bot ratelimited

[thin lake]

Alright so, how can i fix it to read only messages of the bot that i wanna?

[hushed galleon]

this question might be more related to #databases, but surely re-executing a query with a different random number should give you a different result?

[hushed galleon]

apparently its only allowed in the emoji field, not the label

[hushed galleon]

if it comes from the bot, do whatever, else do nothing

dont have the .send("Nothing atm") in that else clause

[unreal iron]

@client.tree.command(name="test")
    async def test(interaction: discord.Interaction, id: str, message: str):
        user = client.get_user(int(id))
        await user.send(message)

Hello this is my code for a slash command where you put someones id and message, and the bot will send the message to the user. Is there a way that I instead of typing someones id I can just type name like random#1234

[steep estuary]

can I increase or decrease the size of the emoji ?

[hushed galleon]

no, i dont think discord's api provides that kind of fine grained adjustments

[hushed galleon]

use discord.Member as the typehint instead and discord.py will take advantage of the USER option type which should give you name autocompletion for free

[runic whale]

Thanks kindly for the reply. Will give databases a shot!

Essentially the query is stored in a dataframe, which successfully passed on to the discord bot command. Although I am unsure how to tackle the refresh process of sorts. Each time the command is used, I get a random row, but it doesn't change, same random row over and over. I'm not sure how to retrigger the query to run again once the command executes and returns something in a discord channel. Is there a way to ensure the script gets re run after a condition like the command has been used?

Sorry if this is unclear, very new haha.

[hushed galleon]

well it sounds like you want the command to be making the query each time then
e.g. py @bot.command() async def my_command(ctx): async with connection_pool.acquire() as conn: row = await conn.fetchrow( "SELECT something FROM table WHERE id >= MAX(id) * RANDOM() LIMIT 1" ) await ctx.send(f"picked: {row['something']}")

[unreal iron]

How to do that? sorry if I sound dumb

[runic whale]

This is really awesome, can't thank you enough. Will get familiar with this code and try to get this integrated!

[hushed galleon]

async def my_command(interaction, user: str):
                                      ^^^^^``` that part is typehinting the `user` parameter with str, so to typehint it with discord.Member you would write: ```py
async def my_command(interaction, user: discord.Member):
                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^```

[hushed galleon]

dont follow it too literally as it's just an example based on the usage of discord.py and asyncpg (for a postgresql database) (also that query itself can have biases depending on the data), but the body of your command runs each time it gets used so you probably want to put your query in there

[unreal iron]

that works but if I in my dms with the bot and run the command it give me an error saying: discord.app_commands.errors.TransformerError: Failed to convert Petrrrrr#1030 to Member. Is there a way that would work even in dms works now instead of discord.Member i used discord.User

[runic whale]

Yeah figured as much, just need some breadcrumbs re: possible functions to use, fetchrow being the one. I have random row logic baked into the dataframe so will try to combine the two.

Again, I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out!

[hushed galleon]

oh yeah thats right, member wouldnt make sense if its outside of a guild

[smoky sinew]

no you should not delete 100 messages per second

[smoky sinew]

set_permission is not a thing

!d discord.abc.GuildChannel.set_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.GuildChannel.set\_permissions

await set_permissions(target, *, overwrite=see - below, reason=None, **permissions)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sets the channel specific permission overwrites for a target in the channel.

The `target` parameter should either be 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") that belongs to guild.

The `overwrite` parameter, if given, must either be `None` or [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite"). For convenience, you can pass in keyword arguments denoting [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions") attributes. If this is done, then you cannot mix the keyword arguments with the `overwrite` parameter.

If the `overwrite` parameter is `None`, then the permission overwrites are deleted.

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

[terse coyote]

(

[twilit veldt]

Why?

[twilit veldt]

How should I solve it then?

[sick birch]

you don't

[smoky sinew]

if you're trying to delete all messages from a channel just clone it and delete the old one

[twilit veldt]

Unfortunately, this is not possible because it would be much more complicated to let the bot recognize the new channel automatically when it was created! Then please tell me one way, as I have many Delete messages at once without becoming rate limited! It's for my Counting Discord Bot!

[smoky sinew]

deleting 100 messages per second is not viable either

[twilit veldt]

But then please tell me one way!

[smoky sinew]

i've already said how to do it

if you have a configuration for a counting channel, you can just automatically update it

[twilit veldt]

Why can't I eg. how to do the mee6 bot, which can delete over 1000 messages at once with one command? Isn't there a way?

[smoky sinew]

mee6 does that?

let me try then

[twilit veldt]

Yes, you must activate "Moderation" on the Dashboard, and you can use a command, To clear as many Messages you want!

[slate swan]

don't compare your bot to mee6, it's a bot that got verified and unverified lmao

[rare echo]

i mean assuming you use the bot to delete/create the channel you can modify the ID for example of the old channel and update it as you have the channel object when you create it

[thorn nova]

Noob question sorry guys, is the standard for publishing your bot to create a new instance of the bot project on the server every time the bot is added?

Otherwise, for a bot that is deployed across a wide number of servers, how do you go about giving it the ability to monitor and respond to potentially many queries and commands at once? Is multithreading enough?

[slate swan]

discord.py handles that, you don't need to worry about that as long as you're not using blocking drivers

[smoky sinew]

you can't modify IDs?

[smoky sinew]

discord.py is already asynchronous

it can handle many tasks at once

[thorn nova]

Gotcha

Would you recommend standard discord.py or pycord more for someone looking to build a relatively simple bot that has a few commands and can respond to messages on certain channels?

[smoky sinew]

i use discord.py

but pycord is basically hard forked; it does not keep up with the regular discord.py

[rare echo]

in terms of db / channel storage for his bot itself

not the server

[smoky sinew]

yes that's what i suggested

[thorn nova]

I've noticed discord.py has less support for things like slash commands, or at least that kind of thing is built into pycord

[smoky sinew]

that's not true

where are you getting that information from

[urban nebula]

It harder to do slash commands but they are possible

From my experience but saying that I’ve been using it outdated for so long now and have realised you need to use bot not client

[smoky sinew]

they're not hard, you're spreading false information

it's the exact same process as adding a message command

[urban nebula]

Oof, my experience is outdated though so it was different

Not spreading false information, calm it

[urban nebula]

I see that now

[smoky sinew]

sorry

[thorn nova]

@smoky sinew Only meant that from what I've seen if you want to incorporate slash commands into discord.py you need to mess with command tree syncing, and so far I haven't needed to do that with pycord. Both are new libraries to me though, so I'm sure I've got some of this stuff wrong.

[smoky sinew]

commands are synced by yourself

i usually would recommend making a message command to sync

or use jishaku which has that and other helpful tools

[thorn nova]

Sweet, I'll check out jishaku

Thanks for the help 👍

that’s the pi 4

look at raspberry pi zero

[clear elm]

is there anything else?

[smoky sinew]

like computers?

M yes on aliexpress it's 230$ ofc

[vale wing]

Buy some old parts and build a server from them

[clear elm]

no, to host

[vale wing]

Like I did, but I had those parts already

[civic fractal]

neat

[civic fractal]

sheesh

at that point just buy an old laptop

or buy a shitty vps for like $5/mo

[smoky sinew]

digitalocean has plans for $5

and it’s not “shitty”

[civic fractal]

i mean

Hey @woeful magnet!

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

[smoky sinew]

@woeful magnet because bot.run is blocking

[woeful magnet]

I want multiple clients connect to Discord simultaneously using their own user accounts in python but my code doesn't work, only shows "First Client has connected to Discord"
I have attached my code.
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wefalovomo

[civic fractal]

client.run will not return until the bot has logged out

[woeful magnet]

what is the solution for my code?

[civic fractal]

each bot should be running in its own thread

[woeful magnet]

I have 3 clients including 1 bot and 2 users.

[civic fractal]

it is possible that this is as simple as ```py
from threading import Thread

Thread(client1.run).start()
Thread(client2.run).start()
Thread(client3.run).start()```

I cant recall if discord.py supports multithreading like this

also you may want to join the threads

[smoky sinew]

this makes no sense

[woeful magnet]

Where do I put tokens of clients in your expressions?

[smoky sinew]

first of all self bots are against tos

second of all what is the reason for running 3 bots in the same code

i don't even think discord.py has a bot=False method anymore

yep it doesn't

[civic fractal]

Thread(client1.run, args=(token1,)).start()
Thread(client2.run, args=(token2,)).start()
Thread(client3.run, args=(token3,)).start()```

[woeful magnet]

I am using discord.py version 1.7.3 for that.

[woeful magnet]

I have three accounts in discord.
I want DMs those three accounts received from others to be displayed in separate categories in one server.

[smoky sinew]

this server doesn't help with self bots

it's against the rules

[civic fractal]

why are you even using user accounts

just use bots

[woeful magnet]

then client.run(user's token) is against rules?

[smoky sinew]

yes

[woeful magnet]

How can I achieve it with bots?

[smoky sinew]

even the discord.py official server does not help with it

[woeful magnet]

But I already implemented my idea with self bot using last version.
I redirected DMs my user account receive from other users to specific category in my server.

[smoky sinew]

so basically modmail

[woeful magnet]

if what I did is against rule, can you teach another way to implement my idea?

[smoky sinew]

modmail?

[civic fractal]

Just have your server members dm a bot

why do they need to dm you personally

[smoky sinew]

https://github.com/kyb3rr/modmail @woeful magnet

[civic fractal]

if you're trying to automatically categorize your personal DMs, then that's simply not allowed

[smoky sinew]

python discord uses this bot @novel apex

[woeful magnet]

oops, great, so I can see DMs from other users in my server?

[smoky sinew]

if they dm the modmail bot yes

[woeful magnet]

oops, what I want is the case of when other users dm me.

[smoky sinew]

that's not allowed

[naive briar]

Not possible

How many times did people tell you this already

[woeful magnet]

haha, okay
then do I have to purchase modmail bot?

[smoky sinew]

it's open source

most python software is

under AGPL 3

[woeful magnet]

Great, thanks for your help.

[smoky sinew]

please do not ask with help for self bots

[woeful magnet]

Thread(target=client1.run, args=(token1,), kwargs={'bot': False}).start() is it possible?

[smoky sinew]

@woeful magnet

[woeful magnet]

I am not good at discord bot, can I ask why I avoid self bot?

[smoky sinew]

it's against discord tos and this server's rules

[civic fractal]

, but also, why are you asking me if its possible when you could easily just run the code and find out

[woeful magnet]

what is tos?

[smoky sinew]

https://discord.com/terms

Automating normal user accounts (generally called "self-bots") outside of the OAuth2/bot API is forbidden, and can result in an account termination if found.

[woeful magnet]

Great. I got it. I won't do that.

thanks

[trim parrot]

guys so

i wanted to make a discord bot

that informs users of new roblox limited items

and when i run the code and send a dm to it (!check)

[smoky sinew]

does roblox allow you to do that 🤔

[trim parrot]

this is what happens

please help

[smoky sinew]

how are we supposed to help you without your code

[trim parrot]

wait

import discord
import requests

DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN = 'discord token'

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

@client.event
async def on_ready():
print('Bot is ready.')

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.content.startswith('!check'):

    response = requests.get('https://api.roblox.com/marketplace/limited-items')
    data = response.json()


    for item in data['data']:

        if item['isNew']:

            await message.channel.send(f"A new limited item is available: {item['name']}")

client.run(DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN)

[smoky sinew]

data["data"] does not exist

[trim parrot]

so

[smoky sinew]

!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.

[smoky sinew]

also don't use requests with discord.py use aiohttp instead

[trim parrot]

bro just edit my code💀💀

[smoky sinew]

i looked and roblox does not have a /marketplace/limited-items endpoint

so that would be your issue

[trim parrot]

hm

so the whole thing is wrong

my fault lol

[unkempt mauve]

How do I set the bot to only create channels under a category when executing slash cmd

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean?

[unkempt mauve]

like a ticket system

where if people execute /open, it will open a ticket channel for them under the tickets category

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.CategoryChannel.create_text_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.CategoryChannel.create\_text\_channel

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

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

[unkempt mauve]

how do I set the category

[smoky sinew]

it already is set

[naive briar]

Did you read what I says

[unkempt mauve]

huh

[smoky sinew]

A shortcut method to Guild.create_text_channel() to create a TextChannel in the category.

[unkempt mauve]

I want it to create channel under a category not that category where the command is executed

[smoky sinew]

same thing

[naive briar]

What? Just get the category?

!d discord.Guild.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_channel

get_channel(channel_id, /)```
Returns a channel with the given ID.

Note

This does *not* search for threads.

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

[unkempt mauve]

get_category u meant

[smoky sinew]

no

a category is a channel

[naive briar]

Doesn't exist

[smoky sinew]

that's why it's called CategoryChannel

[unkempt mauve]

💀

thanks the ticket is opened!

[smoky sinew]

ok

[static holly]

hi, why i have "the app is unresponsive?
code here: https://pastebin.com/agLUAZzs

all work fine and no error in log in vs code...

i dont understand...

[grand hazel]

i think, its suppose to be ctx.send or ctx.say

anyways, does anyone know why when i use my bot to ping user based of their user ids on embeds, it just show bunch of numbers. but in mobile, it shows the bot pinging them, csan anyone help?

[static holly]

where?

[grand hazel]

in the channel.send

[static holly]

no, because channel = bot.get_channel(1234567891030731018)

[grand hazel]

idk tho i regularly use ctx

[static holly]

its same method...

[glad cradle]

are you sure?

probably the Bot is taking more than 3 seconds to respond to the interaction

there are also cpu bound operations in your code, I don't think they're thread safe, are they?

[static holly]

replaced channel.send by

await ctx.send(f"Hé {ctx.author.mention} \U0001F447")
await ctx.send(file=file)

and now, no error...

[static holly]

thread safe? what do you mean?

[naive briar]

Respond using the context

You're sending the message to the channel but not responding to the interaction

[vagrant brook]

how is ctx a thing in on_message lol

oh i misread sorry

[static holly]

not in on_message...

[static holly]

no problem

[low sinew]

i need help for this

[meager chasm]

what is a "nuke bot"

[low sinew]

nevermind

all good

[vagrant ingot]

I believe it is a discord bot that "nukes" the channel by banning everyone and erasing all channels.

[meager chasm]

i see

that sounds very malicious lol

[vagrant ingot]

Yeah, lol

[white citrus]

Can someone help

[quick gust]

[quick gust]

is it because you're setting max_values?

[white citrus]

No

[hushed galleon]

Modals cant be sent with regular messages, for that you need send_modal

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_modal

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_modal

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a modal.

how to counting owned roles? I use this but the result is increased by 1

just minus 1 ...?

theres @everyone role included i suppose

how do i make a discord bot ( interaction ) to leave any server if the server it joined doesnt match my guild id

[latent anvil]

discord.py is back?

[slate swan]

ask chat gpt ai

[grand hazel]

that literally breaks the point of help channels

but ok

[slate swan]

hahahaha im sorry

[glad cradle]

what library are you using?

you can listen for this event

!d discord.on_guild_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_guild\_join

discord.on_guild_join(guild)```
Called when a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild") is either created by the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") or when the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") joins a guild.

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

[hushed galleon]

went back into development a year ago, 2.0 released 6 months after, and the latest version is 2.2.2 which came out a couple days ago

[glad cradle]

wow they've already released another micro

[hushed galleon]

looks like it was just to fix a few incorrect typehints

[glad cradle]

ah yeah discord's voice breaking change

udp packets are now long 74 bytes instead of 70

[runic whale]

Working on getting a random row generator to execute in discord, was able to get some help (thanks again thegamecracks), and have been using aiomysql package to try and accomplish this. Switching over to this has now stopped the command from executing (suspecting my my_first_command variables are off), and the data is being returned strangely, it is pulling column headers and no data. Any suggestions would be most appreciated! Thanks kindly in advance!

[hushed galleon]

ah i thought you were referring to 2.2.1 -> 2.2.2, first patch fixed that

[hushed galleon]

cur.description describes the columns, but not the data itself (see https://peps.python.org/pep-0249/#description or https://aiomysql.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cursors.html#Cursor.description)
perhaps you meant to use fetchone() to retrieve the actual data as a row?

[runic whale]

Let me dig into fetchone() again, was trying to integrate that but to no avail using the documentation. Thanks for the heads up!

[hushed galleon]

oh and if you are using sqlalchemy in your bot id suggest using their asyncio extension so you're not blocking the event loop

Hey @brave moth!

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

damn it discord. why u had to make it txt

as i was saying, updated to new discordpy then this happened https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ehuzedazal. can anyone help me with it?

[summer burrow]

you can rename files to make them another extension

[runic whale]

copy that, thanks!!

weird, can you try updating jishaku? the shims that it imported dont exist in master branch anymore

ah, it appears this was initially fixed in Gorialis/jishaku#196 before it got removed

GitHub

[jishaku] #196 Fix error in python 3.11 with typing module evaluating a TypeVar eagerly

[hushed galleon]

whatever version of jishaku you have is before january 24

[brave moth]

i did but i sorted it out. had to do pip install -U git+https://github.com/Gorialis/jishaku instead of pip install -U jishaku and it worked

[shrewd apex]

they fixed a memory leak

[runic whale]

Got the data normalized, just need to get it stored properly so that it can be called by the command itself. Thanks a ton again for your replies & help!

[hushed galleon]

i was about to say i had set my bot to restart daily because it would eventually crash from memory leaking, but coincidentally i found out it crashed a few hours ago while importing jishaku

apparently my virtualenv didnt have setuptools

[shrewd apex]

right i remember breaking my head with gc and bunch of bs with weakref to trace it i traced till views but then i just decided not worth the trouble and just switched

[shrewd apex]

rip 🗿

[hushed galleon]

wait so jishaku depends on setuptools, but they dont have it listed as a dependecy?

[shrewd apex]

i think setuptools causes trouble as dependency especially when deploying i remember adding it in my poetry when deploying and the servers pip crashed due to that

[hushed galleon]

uhh you werent upgrading the system python's packages right?

[shrewd apex]

i wasn't doing anything it was only listed in my dependencies the server just asked my dependency file name

[hushed galleon]

hmm it sounds like a them problem

[shrewd apex]

probably

I'm guessing this happens cuz I'm passing in the API KEY Inappropriately? Could someone help me out?

I know that there's also a KeyError. But I think the only reason I'm getting the KeyError in the first place is because my code can't access the API.

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.load\_extension

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

Loads an extension.

An extension is a python module that contains commands, cogs, or listeners.

An extension must have a global function, `setup` defined as the entry point on what to do when the extension is loaded. This entry point must have a single argument, the `bot`.

Changed in version 2.0: This method is now a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-coroutine "(in Python v3.11)").

[slate swan]

you need to await it

[slate swan]

how

[left dew]

how do i make it so it displays 2 badges? ive tried this:

if user.public_flags.hypesquad_bravery:
      e.add_field(name=f"**Badges**", value=f"![emoji_3](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1066677280652398633.webp?size=128 "emoji_3") Hypesquad Bravery", inline=False)
      if user.public_flags.active_developer:
        e.add_field(name=f"**Badges**", value=f"![emoji_6](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1066678489811517490.webp?size=128 "emoji_6") Active Developer\n![emoji_3](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1066677280652398633.webp?size=128 "emoji_3") Hypesquad Bravery", inline=False)```

[slate swan]

await bot.load_extension(...)

[slate swan]

just this ?

yes but await must be inside async function

[slate swan]

which async function ?

any but you prolly want to load extensions on startup

so i would put it inside on_ready event

i am newbie so i dont know much about discord.py

or create main function and do it there

and call it at the end with asyncio.run

[slate swan]

can u create it for me i am not getting it

move the code that loads extensions to on_ready function

and add await before bot.load_extension

[slate swan]

howw ?

[slate swan]

how what

those are simple instructions

do you know which lines of your code load extensions?

[slate swan]

if you want them in one field you could create a string like this

badges = ""
if user.public_flags.hypesquad_bravery:
    badges += "bravery "
if user.public_flags.active_developer:
    badges += "developer "

e.add_field(name=..., value=badges)

[left dew]

okay thanks

[slate swan]

can someone help me with sending a file

with just the discord api

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @median rivet!

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

[median rivet]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ixiwobocid

[slate swan]

!d intents

[median rivet]

what

[slate swan]

Using the discord api *

No thats a library, i literally mean the discord api at discord.com/api

i have made like a full commands handler and such i just need a file uploading system now

{'code': 50109, 'message': 'The request body contains invalid JSON.'}
Bad Request
Error: 400

[hushed galleon]

file uploading is handled with multipart payloads, and in the requests module its done with the files= kwarg https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/

that being said, where did you get this data information from? it doesnt match the API reference at all

ok well in elite's example the file value is fine but content doesnt seem right

[hushed galleon]

given the docs, you should just be able to use the file object you opened as the value for your files dict, e.g. py with open(path, "rb") as f: requests.post(..., files={f.name: f})

are you using discord.py 2.0? if so, you need to enable the message_content intent

[slate swan]

i have already fixed the issue

[slate swan]

i dont see any error in this code though the docs make it clear

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through str(content). If the content is set to None (the default), then the embed parameter must be provided.

you may also share the full command code

[median rivet]

I used one this time and I got this in my dm
<discord.embeds.Embed object at 0x000001BD66336950>

[slate swan]

with embed=embed ?

impossible

[median rivet]

no just embed

not embed=embed

[sick birch]

If you pass in just embed it thinks it's the actual content of the message

[median rivet]

    embed = discord.Embed(titile="Coinflip", description="My coin landed on a")
    await dm.send(embed)

[sick birch]

embed=embed indicates that the embed object should be rendered as an actual embed

[median rivet]

but when I do embed=embed it doesnt work

[smoky sinew]

you misspelled title

[sick birch]

What makes you say that?

[median rivet]

lol...

[slate swan]

how isnt that throwing an exception

[median rivet]

same error

[median rivet]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ixiwobocid

[slate swan]

you could try passing empty character into content but still thats not how it should work

[median rivet]

okayyyy so I tried this

    embed = discord.Embed(title="Bot created successfully", description=f" bot has been created successfully", color=0x00ff00)
    await dm.send(content="aaaa", embed=embed)

and It just sent me a message saying aaaa

[slate swan]

without the embed?

[median rivet]

no embed

[slate swan]

try to rename the varriable embed

[median rivet]

okay

It just sent me aaaa again

[slate swan]

what dm is?

[median rivet]

    dm = await ctx.author.create_dm()

[slate swan]

try make it like this

await ctx.author.send(...)

without creating the dm

[upbeat otter]

it sent you a dm because you are the one invoking the command

[slate swan]

🤦

[median rivet]

yeah... thats what we want but its not sending the embed

[median rivet]

okay?

[upbeat otter]

error?

[slate swan]

#discord-bots message

^

[median rivet]

umm it just sent me a message saying
Ellipsis
LOL

and theres an error now

[slate swan]

new error?

[median rivet]

yeah

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/osakedayat

[slate swan]

what dm is now?

[median rivet]

    dm = await ctx.author.send(...)

[slate swan]

🤦

you were supposed to put that embed=embed into this

[median rivet]

ohh

Its not sending me a message now lol

[slate swan]

code?

[median rivet]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ubujegasup

[slate swan]

did you put it after declaring varriable embed

[median rivet]

no...

I'm so stupid

[slate swan]

then you know what to do

[upbeat otter]

embed = discord.Embed(...)
try:
    await ctx.author.send(embed=embed)
except discord.Forbidden:
    ...

It's easy as that nothing complicated

[median rivet]

didnt work

🫠 I'll just stick with a normal message

[slate swan]

is your discordpy version up to date?

you can try doing pip install -U discord.py

[median rivet]

...

it workd

I updated it

[median rivet]

this code works now

[median rivet]

lol tysm

[slate swan]

good to hear

How can I add a countdown in the embed?

[slate swan]

its called a timestamp and you format it this way: <t:TIMESTAMP:STYLE> where TIMESTAMP is timestamp (if you dont know what timestamp is google it) and STYLE is one of the styles provided by discord list of styles can be found here https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting-timestamp-styles

[uneven hearth]

how do i mention a command, is it still </[command_name]:0>?

[slate swan]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting-formats

[upbeat otter]

!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...

[uneven hearth]

thanks

[spiral ibex]

wait it's possible to code a discord bot in python ?

[smoky sinew]

bruh

[verbal hawk]

yes, using discord.py

[smoky sinew]

there's more than just discord.py

[spiral ibex]

Oh okk

I know it was possible in json

[smoky sinew]

json isn't a programming language

you can't code a discord bot in JSON

[spiral ibex]

WHAT

okk I really dont understand ^^''

[smoky sinew]

you are probably thinking of javascript

[verbal hawk]

Hi yall, I want to add a delete button onto my help command, how could I pass a message object? I have to call the class when I send the message.

@bot.tree.command()
async def help(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Help Panel",
                          description="text here",
                          color=0xD2042D)
    embed.set_footer(text="Help was requested by: {}".format(interaction.user.display_name))
    
    class Helpdelete(discord.ui.View):
        def __init__(self, message):
            super().__init__()

        @discord.ui.button(label="🗑️", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
        async def menu1(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
            try:
                await message.delete()
            except Exception as e:
                print(e)

    message = None
    message = await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, view=Helpdelete(message))

Where/how could I pass a message object to the menu1 function in order to delete it?

...or I could make it with reactions ik but this would look wayyyy nicer

[smoky sinew]

interaction.message.delete?

why do you have a nested class

[verbal hawk]

I have tried that before but I get this error:

'Button' object has no attribute 'message'

[verbal hawk]

As far as I know I can only call classes in the view parameter

[echo wasp]

hi, I'm migrating from 1.7.3 to 2.2 but i can't get the task loop to start

[smoky sinew]

you can't call a class

not in that way at least

[smoky sinew]

interaction and button are switched

[echo wasp]

that doesn't work what do i change?

[verbal hawk]

I have used this exact method 3 times in my code and it works so I'm not really sure what you mean by that

[smoky sinew]

interaction and button are switched is your issue

but also there's no point in putting the class inside the function

[verbal hawk]

I've used interaction.message.delete() but the button is the interaction...?

[smoky sinew]

yes because you switched the order

[hushed galleon]

unindent your cog_load function, or alternatively .start() your loop in init directly

[verbal hawk]

well if it doesn't affect the performance I'll keep it there cuz its more organized

[verbal hawk]

I'm not sure what you mean by that, the order of what?

[smoky sinew]

the order of arguments in your function

[verbal hawk]

it only has the discord.Interaction

[verbal hawk]

oooh in menu1, sorry, I thought you mean the whole help thing

what can this error mean?

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'PartialMessage.delete' was never awaited
  interaction.message.delete()

[slate swan]

add await before

[smoky sinew]

that interaction.message.delete wasn't awaited???

[verbal hawk]

it was, I just didn't save it sorry

[slate swan]

Hi

If anyone can help, how can I use modals in py

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.ui.Modal

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Modal

class discord.ui.Modal(*, title=..., timeout=None, custom_id=...)```
Represents a UI modal.

This object must be inherited to create a modal popup window within discord.

New in version 2.0.

Examples...

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples/modals

[karmic nimbus]

how do i reverse the list? so mods roles can be in first list

    roles = ', '.join([role.mention for role in member.roles if role != ctx.guild.default_role])```

[slate swan]

you can reverse a list using list.reverse() method

[karmic nimbus]

    roles = ', '.join([role.mention for role in member.roles if role != ctx.guild.default_role])
    roles.reverse()

like that?

[slate swan]

roles is not a list

its a string already

[karmic nimbus]

hmm

[slate swan]

reverse the list with roles

[river plank]

well my bot runs with the on_ready func but doesn't respond, and im using replit

is it cause of a outage ?

cause no errors when i run any of the commands

[hushed galleon]

random guess but have you enabled the message_content intent? its typically required for text commands to work correctly

[smoky sinew]

you probably shouldn't show your connection URI

[river plank]

wait

shit

💀

there ya go

[smoky sinew]

also don't use pymongo with discord.py

[smoky sinew]

do you have an on_message

[river plank]

yea

[smoky sinew]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#why-does-on-message-make-my-commands-stop-working

[smoky sinew]

read the link

[river plank]

yea

tryin it out

[pliant gulch]

Not a good idea persay to put your Mongo DB URL in a repl.it which is most likely public unless you paid for premium

[slate swan]

is there someting like discord bot roadmap?

[bright wedge]

Not exactly but you can find everything to discord.py

Using basic python and discord.py can do many things.

[smoky sinew]

are you using pycord code with discord.py

[slate swan]

tbh im so dumb w coding idfk

xD i got given this tool from a good friend of mine.

[smoky sinew]

install pycord instead of discord.py then

py -m pip uninstall discord.py
py -m pip install pycord

[slate swan]

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

nvm it's py-cord

not pycord

[slate swan]

@smoky sinew

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

try running your code again

[slate swan]

@smoky sinew

is it possible to get all the users who reacted to a message?

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.Message.reactions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reactions

Reactions to a message. Reactions can be either custom emoji or standard unicode emoji.

[slate swan]

I am trying to create an embed reaction role post with buttons wthin a cog but I am not sure how to approach the interactions now, so when the button is clicked, you either get the role or remove it depending if you already ahve it or not. Just wondering if anyone could advise, heres my code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/xizifilazi cheers, and sorry for spaghetti code.

[slate swan]

thank you

[smoky sinew]

you have to add a callbakc to the button

then check if the user has the role of the button, maybe set the button id to the role id

i would create a separate class for the view and button though like this:

class ReactionRoleButton(discord.ui.Button):
    def __init__(self, role):
        self.name = role[0]
        self.emoji = role[1]
        self.id = role[2]
        
        super().__init__(
            label = self.name,
            custom_id = self.id
        )
    
    async def callback(self, interaction, button):
        ...

class ReactionRoleView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout = None)
        
        for role in roles:
            self.add_item(ReactionRoleButton(role))

await channel.send(
    view = ReactionRoleView(),
    ...
)

something like this, i have no idea if it will actually work @slate swan

also make sure your reaction role view is persistent so it works after the bot has restarted

[slate swan]

Ok, thank you very much, I'll see what I can do 🙂 thank you for the advise, etc and your time. 🙂

[slate swan]

message = await ctx.channel.fetch_message(message.id)
reactions = message.reactions
for reaction in reactions:
async for user in reaction.users():
print(user.name)

I am getting all the users who reacted to a message. How can I choose someone randomly?

you cannot do that on the same file

[smoky sinew]

@woeful magnet i have asked you numerous times to not ask for help with self bots

[woeful magnet]

Hello @smoky sinew can I ask a question?

"/giveaway - Bot Response - for a normal giveaway
/greroll - Bot Response - for a giveaway reroll
/racegiveaway - Bot Response - for a race giveaway or something
/glist - Bot Response - shows all active giveaways
/rgreroll - Bot Response - for a race giveaway reroll
/addxp - Bot Response - points given to a user
/blacklistxp add @user - Bot Response - banished from getting XP
/blacklistxp remove @user - Bot Response - can get XP again
/blacklist list - Bot Response -all users who have been blacklisted
/help - Bot Response - receive a list of commands and utilities
/info - Bot Response - information (you know)
/roleinfo - Bot Response - information about your role
/rolelist - Bot Response - lists all main and sub races

Do I have to develop bots separately to implement those slash commands?

[smoky sinew]

no

[woeful magnet]

So it means I can implement all those slash commands in one bot?

[smoky sinew]

yes

[woeful magnet]

I am sorry to ask about self-bots so far.

[woeful magnet]

I wanna develop a bot which has those commands above, is there anything I can refer?

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean?

you need help on how to implement them?

[slate swan]

in the pins, there is a good guide for slash commands

[smoky sinew]

i think they are asking about the command implementation itself

not how to register a command

[slate swan]

Fair enough, 🙂

[woeful magnet]

where is it?

[woeful magnet]

both of them

I have installed server captcha bot in my server, can other users in my server can see it?

[woeful magnet]

category = server.get_channel(CATEGORY_ID)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_channel'
Who can help me with this error?

[slate swan]

looks like server is None

Send the code where you defined server

[smoky sinew]

@woeful magnet

[woeful magnet]

Hi

[smoky sinew]

send your code

[woeful magnet]

Oh I fixed my error. Then other question
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

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

description = 'An example bot to showcase the discord.ext.commands extension module.'

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='?', description=description, intents=intents)

@bot.command()
async def repeat(ctx, times:int, content="repeating..."):
"""Repeats a message multiple times."""
for i in range(times):
await ctx.send(content)

bot.run(' ')

In this code, Where do I put my bot token and how to import that token?

[smoky sinew]

at the end inside bot.run??

[naive briar]

If it's private, then just put it in the run meth

[woeful magnet]

TOKEN = os.getenv('TOKEN')
bot.run('TOKEN')
is it possible?

[smoky sinew]

no

you are using the string value of "TOKEN" not the variable

!e ```py
test = "hi"
print("test")
print(test)

[unkempt canyon]

@smoky sinew :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | test
002 | hi

[woeful magnet]

I see
TOKEN = os.getenv('TOKEN')
bot.run(TOKEN)
right?

[smoky sinew]

sure

try it

[slate swan]

    from discord_components import nextcordComponents, Button, ButtonStyle
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord_components'```

[smoky sinew]

what's discord_components?

Discord components are cool, but discord.py will support it on version 2.0. It is hard to wait, so we made a third-party library for using components such as buttons or selects!

discord.py has had components for a while now that code is pretty outdated

[slate swan]

send it

[naive briar]

What

[smoky sinew]

send what

[smoky sinew]

@molten zodiac this is not the channel for that

[unkempt mauve]

@bot.event
async def on_application_command(ctx: discord.Interaction):
    channel = discord.guild.get_channel(1081779753578672209)
    await channel.send(f"{ctx.user.id} used the {ctx.command.name} command with options {ctx.options}")```

Bot is not sending any message to the channel...

[smoky sinew]

ctx: discord.Interaction

[unkempt mauve]

yes?

whats funny

[smoky sinew]

you don't see anything wrong with that

[unkempt mauve]

why isnt its sending the message

[smoky sinew]

your issue is discord.guild.get_channel

[unkempt mauve]

what do I do

[smoky sinew]

you need a guild instance

[naive briar]

Learn OOP

[smoky sinew]

also does that event exist?

[smoky sinew]

why do you mislabel it

[unkempt mauve]

I should probably put it in every cmd 💀

[smoky sinew]

no you shouldn't

just name it correctly

this is misleading to yourself and whoever is reading your code

[smoky sinew]

this channel is for help with discord bots

we don't code bots for you

[fresh sand]

@smoky sinew yup sorry man got it

[slate swan]

i want to make a discord bot for giveaway who will choose random participants
and give some lucky points to losers so that next time their winning probability is higher
do i need database to store the lucky points?

[smoky sinew]

yes

i've never heard of that though, that's an interesting system

[brittle axle]

if you gonna scale your bot and making it public then yes you do

like a bigger database

if its just a private bot for a server with your friends then you dont' really need one

it depends on the amount of people that is going to use the bot

but yea a database is usually recommended

[sinful thistle]

Anyone wanna collaborate to develop a bot (It is gonna be really good i guarantee)

[sinful thistle]

Yes you will need a database for storing the lucky points and dm me I gonna tell you a good logic for ur program

[shrewd apex]

just use the points in ur random bias as weights no other logic required

[sinful thistle]

No the logic was

When a winner gets a credit set their lucky points to 0 and increment the points of others by a number say one and when some1s lucky points reach say 10 give em the prize and set their points to 0, and if there are 1+ superlucky people then pick a random one amongst them and when the people who get their prize after getting selected randomly even after being super lucky, will get n lucky points for patience.

n will be the number of turns they waited after being super lucky

[shrewd apex]

!d random.sample too much complication

[unkempt canyon]

random.sample

random.sample(population, k, *, counts=None)```
Return a *k* length list of unique elements chosen from the population sequence. Used for random sampling without replacement.

Returns a new list containing elements from the population while leaving the original population unchanged. The resulting list is in selection order so that all sub-slices will also be valid random samples. This allows raffle winners (the sample) to be partitioned into grand prize and second place winners (the subslices).

Members of the population need not be [hashable](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-hashable) or unique. If the population contains repeats, then each occurrence is a possible selection in the sample.

[shrewd apex]

use weights

it even takes into account multiple winners

[sinful thistle]

Will he allow multiple winners?

[slate swan]

yep there are 5 winners

[sinful thistle]

ok then his solution will do

[slate swan]

    await interaction.response.send_message("Hiii", ephemeral=True)
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'Button' object has no attribute 'response'```

i am getting this error

code?

[tacit storm]

not sure where to go with this but could anyone know whats happening? when i try running a discord bot using a custom made library with docker, it says this, but when i run the bot without docker (using like a normal cmd), it works perfectly fine

they're on the same commit both locally and on the docker container

[slate swan]

interaction is before button

[slate swan]

how to fix it?

[slate swan]

it should be self, interaction, button

[slate swan]

worked thanks

[radiant bough]

Which colour matches with discord embed?
Except for discord.Colour.dark_theme()

[slate swan]

you mean the color of the embed so the line is invisible ?

[vale wing]

Could you show your Dockerfile and file structure?

[slate swan]

this may be what you are looking for #2f3136

[quaint scaffold]

#2B2D31 is the embed background colour

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @dense jackal!

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

[smoky sinew]

discord.Colour.dark_embed

[buoyant quartz]

help me please:
I have been trying to move the emojis for a bot in a seperate server but everytime i do this certain command in this certain server it bugs out and never displays the actual emoji... In other servers the emojis are perfectly fine and in other commands it works fine... whats happening?

[smoky sinew]

did you change the emoji id

[buoyant quartz]

yeah ive changed everything

as i said, in other servers when i use this exact command, it seems to work just fine

the bot has all the permissions it needs like external server

[dense jackal]

Alright so basically I was coding a modmail bot with discord py and the script got really messy. On top of me not really good at coding, I don't understand alot of stuff in the script. We also tried to add a close command that closes the thread when sent. that command will do so the messages sent in the threads after command is ran wont be sent in the user's dms. Feel free to dm me. I need hard assistance lol.

I just need someone to help me make order in that and possibly explain to me how to code that close, open feature

[karmic nimbus]

so i wanted to display user key permission, but i just want to display the important perms like 'manage' or 'ban' how?

like dyno bot whois

[buoyant quartz]

the same emojis are sending perfectly fine by themselves...

[river plank]

how do i use a hyperlink in a embed title

[naive briar]

Normally

[vale wing]

That's some dumb discord bug, happened to me too, don't even remember how I resolved it

[buoyant quartz]

ive been at this for hours and i cant seem to resolve it lol 😭

[vale wing]

But iirc it had to do something with external emojis permission

[buoyant quartz]

i have enabled external emojis everywhere from the bots role, to the channel permissions etc

[vale wing]

Not sure how certain emojis are displayed but others are not

[buoyant quartz]

i used the same emojis in a different command and that worked

[vale wing]

Actually how do you use emojis in text?

[buoyant quartz]

its just \

then you get a code

!dice_question

[vale wing]

Yeah that's correct way

[buoyant quartz]

thats what i have and i know it cant be my code because in a different server it worked

[dull terrace]

is there any way to find out a buttons custom_id from a bot users perspective

is it somewhere in the html or anything

[vale wing]

Discord uses no html if you look at dev panel

[dull terrace]

I only know very basics of web dev so idk

I assume theres no way to get at that info client side?

[naive briar]

No

[vale wing]

Not sure if you can fetch that info with user token but anyways that would be ToS violation

[naive briar]

Just use text commands if you don't want people to know

[vale wing]

Respond to interaction ephemerally and use inter.channel.send

[dull terrace]

okay

[shrewd fjord]

Or followup

[vale wing]

@dull terrace actually try reading component custom ID of message of one bot with another bot

But I think they are private, as discord clarifies they are available in interactions sent to bot https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/message-components#custom-id

[dull terrace]

ima test and see, curious

[dull terrace]

yeah you can get custom ids with another bot

just printed off message.components after fetching another bots message and got all of the info

[slate swan]

hey, i made a script thatt takes in a list of usernames that a scraped from a server and i want to add all them from the list, ive made the request but i just seem to be getting the status code 400

[bright wedge]

You wanna store users id from a guild?

[slate swan]

I’ve already scraped all the users I want to add from a server cus they are all my friends and it’s like 400+ please. So I made something to scrape all the names and I want to add them

I thought I could using this end point and pass the user and the # in the json but i just get the 400 status code

[naive briar]

Are you self-botting

[slate swan]

no

[bright wedge]

I replied to a different user and you are replying to me, I got confused. 😄

[slate swan]

Oh I’m so sorry I didn’t realise so made that post on my alt

That is my acc hahaha

[bright wedge]

You just can store the ids

In easier way

[naive briar]

That's a self-bot library

[slate swan]

Oh…

😭😭😭😭😭😭

Errrrr I didn’t know that 😭😭

Oops

[bright wedge]

Well that's why called discum , dis-scum , discord scum.

[slate swan]

LOOOL my bad I honestly didn’t do to much research into it I just didn’t want to re add all the people I know again

Guess I won’t use that again

[bright wedge]

Well you can but we can't help.

[slate swan]

I only wanna add my friends…. And thought I’d try make something for fun

Don’t wanna break tos and get banned

:/

[bright wedge]

Find other way to make fun 😄

[slate swan]

Technically I already have the ids so I can carry on making something to add everyone no ?

[bright wedge]

Can't help

[slate swan]

;(

Thank you anyways
