[grand hazel]

does anyone know how to make a button and detect who pushes it?

[radiant bough]

No, like the line should match colour with embed’s background not discord’s background (sorry I’m replying late)

and discord.Colour.dark_embed didn’t work for me when I tried doing it

[slate swan]

Yeah this didn't work, as it is a cog it needs to derive from cogs which view doesn't.

[radiant bough]

nvm got this working ty for your help

[slate swan]

isnt it?

hey i can make a new help command
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandRegistrationError: The command help is already an existing command or alias.

my command help is not in that

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, *, help_command=<default-help-command>, tree_cls=<class 'discord.app_commands.tree.CommandTree'>, description=None, intents, **options)```
Represents a Discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin") to provide the functionality to manage commands.

Unlike [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client"), this class does not require manually setting a [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree "discord.app_commands.CommandTree") and is automatically set upon instantiating the class.

async with x Asynchronously initialises the bot and automatically cleans up.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

to your bot constructor pass help_command=None

[slate swan]

client.remove_command("help")```
will it work?

[slate swan]

depends where you put it but should work

[slate swan]

works
||~~lmao 90% code is completed||

hey i dont have database so is it ok to store information in text file? @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

I did get adv ice from mudkip last night, which they did advice to subclass the buttons and views, like so https://paste.pythondiscord.com/avegifegux aswell as add in a persistent view with a call back for the buttons, but I just wasn't able to get this working as the error last night just said cogs must derive from 'Cog'. Which is understandable, as "each cog is a python class that subclasses commands.Cog."

[slate swan]

what information

i am creating a lottery system

well better way would be to use json file if its not too much data

[slate swan]

hmm i was thinking of that only or probably i should switch to mongo db

mongodb is a good choice

as of now a line is added at last and my bot selects sometimes that blank space

thats not how to send emojis via discord bot

You need to do <:emojiname:emjiid>

If they are custom you can do to any channel in your discord server /:emoji: and it will give you what you need.

you need something like this !this

[slate swan]

.pop() doesnt works well

!this

put backslash before emoji

and you get the form you can use in discord bot

Oh back slash not front slash, sorry.

you can do it yourself

[slate swan]

thats why you should use mongodb

choose emoji you want to send and put backslash before it then send

thats front slash

back slash, you also need to make sure those emojis are in the server the bot is in.

If the emoji isn't in this server, or even your own server, it won't work

do it on the server where the emojis are at

[naive briar]

You don't have nitro to use it here

🤨

!pithink

[slate swan]

ahh i guess now i need to work more for that

[naive briar]

Show the code then

[slate swan]

do it where the emojis are at

in mongo db can we store txt?

[slate swan]

not here cause you dont have nitro

[slate swan]

mondodb is document type database

so you store json objects in it

[naive briar]

You can't use emojis in field names

[slate swan]

: (

[slate swan]

do you know what that means?

[naive briar]

And why are you saying it's not working?

Because you can't use it there

No markups in field name

[slate swan]

what?

{
    "id": 12345,
    "text": "simple message"
}``` this is example json

[slate swan]

i know that lol

[slate swan]

works like dictionary in python

i also worked on js and json before

[naive briar]

And???

[slate swan]

good so you need key: value pairs in mongodb

[naive briar]

I'm saying that you can't use custom emojis in field names

[slate swan]

so you can access data via key

[slate swan]

wait how will i store only id of members?
in json

[naive briar]

It's in the embed description

[slate swan]

depends how you want to use it

i assume you want to have a list of members who can/cant do something

then you could do json { "canDoSomething": [ 123, 456 ] }

[naive briar]

It's called description formatting

Not fields

[slate swan]

which one is good?

[slate swan]

?

iirc below you should pick a city where server will be pick the onle closest to you look where is that

[crude geyser]

Hello, a query:
When someone puts a bot to their server and does not give you all the permits you need to work well, in console ends up giving a permit error, which I can use so that the error in console does not jump.
"For error related to user permissions I use:"

@client.event
async def on_command_error(ctx,error):
      isinstance(error,command.MissingPermissions): 
          em = discord.Embed(description=f'*💬 No tienes permisos para usar este comando*', color=0x2c4763)
        await ctx.send(embed=em)

[slate swan]

Doesn't really matter for discord bots, on location. But all 3 are fine, just make sure to understand what is free and what isn't and bare in mind all 3 free tiers do expire after certain amount of time.

[slate swan]

right my bad for a discord bot the location actually doesnt matter allthough closest to discord servers the bot will be faster

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions.missing_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions.missing\_permissions

The required permissions that are missing.

[slate swan]

commands.CommandOnCoooldown

cause this shouldnt have the / inside

!this

what autocorrects

okay but it shouldnt have the / inside

remove it

then paste it inside codeblock

i have connected mongodb to my discord bot now i want to write user id of user in db
how to do that? also can i make multiple collections?

![this](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/470903994118832130.webp?size=128 "this")

can i do what

[crude geyser]

?

[slate swan]

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

[slate swan]

did you connect to mongo in code already?

[slate swan]

I was wondering if anyone could potentially help with my query 🙂

[naive briar]

No

It doesn't understand UI stuff from discord.py

And pretty much useless even how much you try to ask it

[slate swan]

Plus its awful, I am not going to use that crap lol.

[naive briar]

As you shouldn't

[alpine cove]

dont

bruh whats wrong

?

?

just explain it

Im not even gonna try guessin

alr gotcha

[slate swan]

Show the code instead and use paste.pythondisord.com to send the code.

[alpine cove]

u talking about the <member...>

[slate swan]

Quite frankly what I am looking at, <:member1-1:ID> that specific emoji is either named wrong, or doesn't exist on the server.

[alpine cove]

just fetch the emoji

!d discord.Guild.fetch_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.fetch\_emoji

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

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

Note

This method is an API call. For general usage, consider iterating over [`emojis`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.emojis "discord.Guild.emojis") instead.

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

[alpine cove]

yea use fetch

bruh

[slate swan]

you can simply bot.get_emoji(ID)

[alpine cove]

interesting

so these are unique?

across guilds?

[slate swan]

Emoji IDs? yeah

<:member1~1:1081933618080911362> if the name is correct, then the ID must be wrong. Have you double checked the ID?

every snowflake is unique

[alpine cove]

mh

[slate swan]

Bot has only get_emoji

since it utilise cache

Guilds have fetch_emoji

since the request is bound to a guild

though it wouldn't hurt to add both methods to either

[alpine cove]

"Discord utilizes Twitter's snowflake format for uniquely identifiable descriptors (IDs). These IDs are guaranteed to be unique across all of Discord, except in some unique scenarios in which child objects share their parent's ID."

[alpine cove]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference

[slate swan]

Are you actully getting the emoji id or are you getting the message id?

[alpine cove]

just type the emoji out in chat then copy it to the clipboard and send it but with a backslash in front of it

[slate swan]

Sounds to me you are post it, then copying the message ID itself.

people do that often lol^

\emoji

you need to do back slash:member1~1: and it will give you the unique snowflake (emoji name and id)

!this

This is really only required for custom emojis as far as I am aware, take note of it so you dont forget in the future 🙂

Its one way to do it.

you don't need to fetch emojis just to use it

[lunar charm]

dear god

keyerror:user

[slate swan]

hello who can help me please

i got this problem and idk how to fix it

require('discord.js-selfbot-v13');

[burnt imp]

How can I make it where someone can pass a channel as a argument and it'll convert it to a channel_id ?

[lunar charm]

u running selfbot

illegal

[slate swan]

oh ok

[unkempt mauve]

How do I make the buttons expire immediately after the button is clicked

[unkempt mauve]

lmao, its a py server

[slate swan]

yes

[unkempt mauve]

thats easy. channel.id

[burnt imp]

no

[slate swan]

how to fix

[unkempt mauve]

self bots are illegal at first place

[burnt imp]

Correct answer is to do channel = discord.TextChannel, then you can do channel.id

[unkempt mauve]

if u know then why asking bruh

[lunar charm]

i was unable to create .env file on repl.it

[burnt imp]

Someone else helped me lol?

[unkempt mauve]

plus, as you said argument, I know u have defined the variable channel, so I said the finishing

[burnt imp]

what?

[unkempt mauve]

impossible on repl

[burnt imp]

I literally asked how can I make it where someone can pass a channel as a argument

[unkempt mauve]

ok, I am dumb

[lunar charm]

Improper token has been passed.

god help me

[smoky sinew]

why are you using replit

[smoky sinew]

no

[lunar charm]

cuz yez

[smoky sinew]

i think you mean channel: discord.TextChannel

[lunar charm]

sublime text make me cancer

[smoky sinew]

then install another editor

[lunar charm]

me have potato computer

default ilde unable to run

[smoky sinew]

who said anything about IDLE

[lunar charm]

so.

can u suggest me some?

[slate swan]

yep

[smoky sinew]

vscode uses up more ram

vim is also good but it's not user friendly and takes time to learn

[slate swan]

Notepad ++ is good, I use to use that as a lightweight alternative when I originally started coding.

[naive briar]

Just set using their UI

[smoky sinew]

vscode takes up 400 mb at most

for me

[slate swan]

If your only using it to edit files and not adding lots different extensions, VSC should also be fine.

[burnt imp]

Yeah that's what I meant

no idea why I made it a variable though

[smoky sinew]

the colon makes it an annotation

[lunar charm]

god help me

discord.errors.LoginFailure: Improper token has been passed.

[burnt imp]

You're passing a invalid token

@lunar charm why do you have microsoft store python

[lunar charm]

i use cmd before

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @lunar charm!

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

[lunar charm]

`import discord
import os

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

@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('$hello'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello!')

client.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))`

[smoky sinew]

load your dotenv

if you have a .env file

[lunar charm]

just token

TOKEN='token'

thats all

[smoky sinew]

that's not what i meant, you have to have python read it

it's not actually set as an environment variable immediately

[naive briar]

!pypi dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

dotenv v0.0.5

Handle .env files

[smoky sinew]

!pypi python-dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

python-dotenv v1.0.0

Read key-value pairs from a .env file and set them as environment variables

[lunar charm]

uhh

[slate swan]

from dotenv import load_dotenv

[lunar charm]

does visual code installed it?

a ok

[smoky sinew]

you still have to install it though

[slate swan]

but you gave him links to install

so i sent code

[smoky sinew]

ok

[lunar charm]

egg_info did not run successfully.

[smoky sinew]

what

show the log

[smoky sinew]

did you use my package?

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @lunar charm!

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

[smoky sinew]

try my package

the other one has no info on pypi

[lunar charm]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/unucodefoz

[lunar charm]

i tried pip install dotenv

[smoky sinew]

it's pip install python-dotenv

that's a different package that you're trying to install

[slate swan]

this wont work

[lunar charm]

oh its works

[lunar charm]

what next

bruh

[slate swan]

call the method

[lunar charm]

load_dotenv()?

[smoky sinew]

sure, before you use your environment variable

[lunar charm]

where should i put it

[slate swan]

after imports

[unkempt mauve]

how do I make those buttons expire after the button interaction is successful

[lunar charm]

still that

discord.errors.LoginFailure: Improper token has been passed.

[lunar charm]

why dont u use react system

[smoky sinew]

because buttons are better in every way

[unkempt mauve]

thats old

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.Button.disabled

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Button.disabled

Whether the button is disabled or not.

[smoky sinew]

just set this to true

or discord.ui.Button whatever

[unkempt mauve]

inside the button class or inside the app_commands?

[smoky sinew]

inside your button callback

[unkempt mauve]

ok

[smoky sinew]

so you want it so that when one is clicked, the rest disable?

[unkempt mauve]

yes

[unkempt mauve]

yes

[smoky sinew]

ok

you could just loop over all of the buttons

for item in view.children:
    if isinstance(item, discord.ui.Button):
        item.disabled = True

[unkempt mauve]

inside the callback

[shell wing]

@discord.ui.button()
    async def idk(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
        self.stop()

[smoky sinew]

sure

[shell wing]

u could this, it stops after a single click

[smoky sinew]

that doesn't disable the buttons though

[unkempt mauve]

class MyView(discord.ui.View):

    @discord.ui.button(label="Rock", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def rock(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
      computer_choice = ['Rock', 'Paper', 'Scissors']
      computer_choice2 = random.choice(computer_choice)
      if computer_choice2 == 'Rock':
        await interaction.response.edit_message(content='Draw! I and you chose `Rock`.')
      elif computer_choice2 == 'Scissors':
        await interaction.response.edit_message(content='You win! I chose `Scissors` and you chose `Rock`!')
      else:
        await interaction.response.edit_message(content='I won! I chose `Paper` and you chose `Rock`!')```
my code is like this

[smoky sinew]

the user has no way of knowing it's disabled

[shell wing]

Stops accepting the click...

[shell wing]

tru

[smoky sinew]

if it's disabled the user can't click in the first place

[smoky sinew]

just make a helper function named stop which has something like this:

def stop():
    for item in self.children:
        if isinstance(item, discord.ui.Button):
            item.disabled = True
    super().stop()

then you can call stop() whenever

[unkempt mauve]

async def stop() right

[smoky sinew]

no

you don't need to make everything async

you don't await random.choice either

[unkempt mauve]

nice

btw where do I put the stop

I am just new at buttons

[smoky sinew]

wherever

it doesn't matter

probably after the button has been clicked

if you have a tie, you probably don't need to stop it

[unkempt mauve]

nah I want to stop it everywhere

[smoky sinew]

then do that

[unkempt mauve]

damn the bot is naughty, its not expiring

I cant see the error either

[slate swan]

don;t you need to edit the message and set message's view to self for the disable thing to happen

[unkempt mauve]

hey what?

[smoky sinew]

yeah you will probably need to update it i guess

[unkempt mauve]

so the view?

[lunar charm]

client=commands.Bot(command_prefix='z',bot=True,help_command=False,intents=discord.Intents.default())

does this command clear?

[unkempt mauve]

what

[smoky sinew]

help command = False??

[quick gust]

there's no bot= kwarg is there?

[lunar charm]

so its true?

[quick gust]

if u dont want a help command set it to None

[smoky sinew]

making a help command is not true or false

it's asking you to supply a help command for use

[lunar charm]

k

discord.errors.LoginFailure: Improper token has been passed.

💀

ive changed my entire code and try new token

[smoky sinew]

send the first and last few characters of your token

[lunar charm]

MTA4MTkz...C7gFgrJ54g

[smoky sinew]

do you have TOKEN=MTA...54g in your environment variable?

ohh

[lunar charm]

yez?

[smoky sinew]

you have quotes around it

[lunar charm]

remove it?

[smoky sinew]

yes

[lunar charm]

still there

[smoky sinew]

what does your code look like

[lunar charm]

`import discord

[steel loom]

are you sure your token is valid and works?

[lunar charm]

i just create it 💀

[steel loom]

you cant connect to the bot gateway with your user token pal

[smoky sinew]

what is sbot

[steel loom]

sbot = selfbot

dont help him

[lunar charm]

random name

[smoky sinew]

you didn't even run the load_dotenv function @lunar charm

and you don't need to do import dotenv when you've already imported the function

[lunar charm]

bro 💀

i gave u token cuz ýe

just a name

check if that token is legal

[smoky sinew]

i've already said whats wrong

[lunar charm]

ua?

how?

i did not invited that bot?

[smoky sinew]

here

and also remove the extra import

and sbot part

[slate swan]

How is this dismiss message called?

ephemeral

i belive thats how you spell it

[slate swan]

Thank you

[unkempt mauve]

this is how u spell it

heh

[slate swan]

good

@bot.command()

[smoky sinew]

its only for slash commands

what is the problem in code?

[smoky sinew]

are you using pymongo?

[dull terrace]

I've never used that before but i would guess that you're trying to insert a user id into the database in a unique field while it's already in there

[smoky sinew]

don't set _id

that's mongodb's internal id

[dull terrace]

[shrewd apex]

pymongo is sync u need motor

[slate swan]

yep

[smoky sinew]

use motor

[slate swan]

how to do that

    @commands.command()
    async def unban(self,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)
        def check_author(m):
            return m.author.id == member.id
        await member.unban(check=check_author)
        em5 = nextcord.Embed(title="Unban Success", description=f"{member.mention}({member.id}) Got unbanned!", color=nextcord.Color.green())
        await ctx.reply(embed=em5)    ```


and when doing !unban <id> it says that the member didnt found

[smoky sinew]

because the member isnt in the server

[slate swan]

ofc

its an unban command

[sick birch]

Typehint as user instead

[slate swan]

user.unban?

2023-03-05 22:11:06 ERROR    discord.ui.view Ignoring exception in view <lottery timeout=180.0 children=1> for item <Button style=<ButtonStyle.success: 3> url=None disabled=False label='Join now only 5₹' emoji=None row=None>```

[smoky sinew]

guild.unban

[slate swan]

ill try ty

    @commands.command()
    async def unban(self,ctx, member:nextcord.Member=None):
        guild=ctx.guild
        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)
        def check_author(m):
            return m.author.id == member.id
        await guild.unban(check=check_author)
        em5 = nextcord.Embed(title="Unban Success", description=f"{member.mention}({member.id}) Got unbanned!", color=nextcord.Color.green())
        await ctx.reply(embed=em5)    

still same error

[smoky sinew]

where's user

you can't use member

[slate swan]

user=member?

[smoky sinew]

no'

[slate swan]

wdym why

[smoky sinew]

typehint it as user

[slate swan]

okay

   @commands.command()
    async def unban(self,ctx, user:nextcord.Member=None):
        guild=ctx.guild
        if user == None:
            em1 = nextcord.Embed(title="__**Unban Error**__",description="Member not found! :x:", color=nextcord.Color.red())
            return await ctx.reply(embed=em1)
        if user.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)
        def check_author(m):
            return m.author.id == user.id
        await guild.unban(check=check_author)
        em5 = nextcord.Embed(title="Unban Success", description=f"{user.mention}({user.id}) Got unbanned!", color=nextcord.Color.green())
        await ctx.reply(embed=em5)```

[smoky sinew]

user: nextcord.User

[slate swan]

didnt know that was a thing

await guild.unban(check=check_author)
TypeError: unban() got an unexpected keyword argument 'check'

if check isnt an option then

[quick gust]

you cant do that, just guild.unban(user)

[slate swan]

oh

async def check(ctx, user: discord.User):
    if user.id in enrolled.find_one():
        return await ctx.send("User is already present")

not working

oo thanks!

[dull terrace]

bot is up to 6300 lines of code

send help

[smoky sinew]

give code

[unkempt mauve]

imagine not using cogs

[dull terrace]

here is some

[unkempt mauve]

bro use cogs for gods sake

[dull terrace]

i enjoy that you think that is the issue

[unkempt mauve]

nvm

Guys, I am dying with this code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/kahajedozu

The issue is that the buttons are not getting disabled after a button interaction is successful

it is driving me crazy for 3 hours straight

[shrewd apex]

are u updating the view?

[unkempt mauve]

yes

[shrewd apex]

any specific error?

[unkempt mauve]

nothing in the console

the msg is updated but the buttons are not disabled

[shrewd apex]

do u have logging setup?

dont really see anything wrong tho

[unkempt mauve]

discord.utils.logging()

[dull terrace]

have you tried printing the components after disabling them to make sure they're actually being disabled

[unkempt mauve]

discord.utils.setup_logging()

[unkempt mauve]

I debugged them

[shrewd apex]

can u do
button.disabled = True

and edit it

[unkempt mauve]

I did that already in the loop man

[shrewd apex]

the button from the functional parameters

[unkempt mauve]

I couldnt get what u meant

My brain is already malfunctioning

getting limited

[smoky sinew]

cogs doesn't necessarily mean file, he could have used cogs you don't know that

[dull terrace]

i don't use cogs, prefer doing everything low level

[unkempt mauve]

why discord's skill issue is destroying my life

I guess I need a break

this thing is limiting my brain for 3 hours straight

[dull terrace]

if you're printing the buttons and they're disabled then it's not editing them

[unkempt mauve]

the buttons are never disabled

[smoky sinew]

cogs aren't high level they're just a means of organizing code

[unkempt mauve]

the buttons are not disabling even if the interaction is expired, tell me what do I do? Jump from the window? I am disgusted

[smoky sinew]

you should separate your game logic and discord code i think @dull terrace

since you are making an RPG

[dull terrace]

it is pretty seperated

i have like 30 files or something rn

[unkempt mauve]

embed.set_author?

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.Embed.set_author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_author

set_author(*, name, url=None, icon_url=None)```
Sets the author for the embed content.

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

[unkempt mauve]

!d discord.Embed.set_author

[smoky sinew]

is that wakatime or something

[unkempt mauve]

oops

[dull terrace]

just a plugin for vscode

[smoky sinew]

that's cool

[unkempt mauve]

tbh, I dont know why author exists lol

[smoky sinew]

you should check out wakatime i signed up for it recently

[quick gust]

link?

[smoky sinew]

for crossposting

[quick gust]

i use wakatime

very cool

[smoky sinew]

i know

[dull terrace]

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=uctakeoff.vscode-counter

[smoky sinew]

me: https://wakatime.com/@2fdd4a09-2b31-4c43-bdaf-42d9097a4452

call the function

[slate swan]

whats wakatime O.o

[smoky sinew]

i already linked the docs

[smoky sinew]

it's here

[quick gust]

displays your coding stats, the projects u worked on, the languages, for how long, etc

[smoky sinew]

and you just call it like any function, embed.set_author(name = ...)

[dull terrace]

what does the *_ do in your username

[smoky sinew]

last.fm for coding basically

[smoky sinew]

positional arguments

no, that's not for calling the function that's just part of the function signature (its definition)

the !d command in the bot doesn't show how to use the function, it shows how it's defined

[slate swan]

!e ```py
def foo(*):
print()

foo(1, 2 ,3, 4)

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

(1, 2, 3, 4)

[slate swan]

packs the positional args

[dull terrace]

ohh it's just the useless placeholder thing

[smoky sinew]

????

how is it useless

[dull terrace]

for variables you don't care about

[smoky sinew]

it's not don't care about, just don't need

[dull terrace]

that's what i learned anyway, you use _ when unpacking stuff as a variable for things you dont need

[smoky sinew]

it's not really something you should use in your code

[dull terrace]

why not, i've used it a couple times

[slate swan]

yeah the *_ is forsure meant to ignore the usage
but * is not at all useless

[smoky sinew]

@quick gust i changed it

[dull terrace]

yeah the combination made me think it was doing something special for some reason

[quick gust]

still doesnt show. waka time right?

[smoky sinew]

try now

i forgot to save

[quick gust]

yes

tf is obisdian

[dull terrace]

can someone finish this bot update for me

[smoky sinew]

markdown editor and notes app ❤️

i use it for keeping track of everything though

[quick gust]

nice

[maiden fable]

Ya'll keep track of stuff? Dang

[quick gust]

track of what?

[dull terrace]

what are you guys tracking?

[maiden fable]

daily stuff

[slate swan]

not me i don;t even know what im doing 90% of time

[maiden fable]

🫂

[smoky sinew]

just life stuff and things that need to be organized

[dull terrace]

the only thing i look at is lines of code so i can remind myself im actually progressing

[maiden fable]

Portal series 👀

[dull terrace]

0%

[shrewd apex]

[slate swan]

this thing looks like github commit graph but empty 😔

[smoky sinew]

off-topic but i haven't figured out how to display the percentage yet, if you guys know a good game tracking api let me know lol

[maiden fable]

Steam.....?

Idk if they got an API tho

[smoky sinew]

steam has an api?

i will look into it

[dull terrace]

i like last.fm for music tracking because it has spotify and other music services too

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def check(ctx,user: discord.Member):
    for x in requested.find():
        if x["_id"] == user.id:
            await ctx.send("User is in the database")
        else:
            await ctx.send("User is not in the database")

i am getting output 2 times

Hi all, finally got my code working so can use buttons etc, just struggling with getitng my persistent view work now, was wondering if someone could run over my code and see if I am doing it wrong, I did take a nosey at the examples in GitHub but as they are single instance bots where as I am within a cog, it does't really give me the best examples:

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/nusekobihi

Just need the view to stay persistent, so when I shut down the bot and reboot it, the embed can still use the callback function to get roles without constantly having to run the command to post a new one.

[slate swan]

why for loop?

[slate swan]

it was showing discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: index '_id' cannot be applied to Cursor instances

then i took code from stackoverflow it worked but it shows 2 times there are 2 ppl in my database

@client.command()
async def check(ctx ,user: discord.Member):
        x = requested.find()
        if user.id in x["_id"]:
            await ctx.send("User is in the database")
        else:
            await ctx.send("User is not in the database")

now?

[smoky sinew]

don't use _id i've already said that

[slate swan]

why

[smoky sinew]

because _id is used by mongodb internally

it's not meant to be overriden

[slate swan]

so how to fix now?

[slate swan]

user.id == x["_id"]

"_id" stores an integer right?

yep

[smoky sinew]

remove those database entries and use id instead of _id

also you should use motor not pymongo

[maiden fable]

No please don't

[maiden fable]

id is an in built function

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def check(ctx ,user: discord.Member):
        x =  requested.find_one({"id":user.id})
        if user.id == x:
            await ctx.send("User is in the database")
        else:
            await ctx.send("User is not in the database")

i did this

[honest shoal]

how can I set color in embed using embed variable instead of kwargs

[smoky sinew]

so??? this isn't even python related at all

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean embed variable

embed.color = ...

[honest shoal]

yes this one

[slate swan]

embed = discord.Embed(
title="Create Your Profile",
description=(game_description),
color=0xBB8FCE
)

I use this within my embed.

[smoky sinew]

why do you have paranthesis around game_description?

[honest shoal]

I don't want to use color here for some reasons

[slate swan]

Its a string variable. It just look neater pulling it out of that block and setting it as its own variable.

[smoky sinew]

yes but why these ( )

[slate swan]

doesn't really matter, for me it just helps not to get confused with other values.

[forest oyster]

does someone know hoy to delete a channel with the bot????

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.GuildChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.abc.GuildChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.GuildChannel.delete

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

Deletes the channel.

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

[dense jackal]

Basically I get this error and I dont understand why

get_channel doesn't raise an error

if the channel isnt in cache

it just returns None

you should use if statement rather than try-except

[dense jackal]

so

I should get rid of except and replace try by if?

[vocal snow]

just check if channel is None\

if it's None then the channel wasnt found

[dense jackal]

yeah that's the problem. It gives me an error when dming the bot

it doesnt even send the confirmation embed

!d discord.ext.commands.dm_only

discord.ext.commands.dm\_only

@discord.ext.commands.dm_only()```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that indicates this command must only be used in a DM context. Only private messages are allowed when using the command.

This check raises a special exception, [`PrivateMessageOnly`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.PrivateMessageOnly "discord.ext.commands.PrivateMessageOnly") that is inherited from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

New in version 1.1.

[slate swan]

Does this still work?

yes

[slate swan]

It makes commands only work in DM's right?

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ahufahiheg I was wondering if someone could take a snoop over my code and advise as to what I can do to get the view persistent, as currently, if I restart the bot, the buttons stop working.

[smoky sinew]

1. the view must have a timeout
2. all view items must have a custom_id
3. you must add the view in your bot's setup_hook

class DiscordBot(commands.Bot)
    async def setup_hook(self):
        await self.add_view(ReactionRoleView())

[slate swan]

it has a timeout set to none, I'll take a look into this custom_id now, and its in a cog not the bots main file, would this still apply?

[smoky sinew]

if it's in a cog i guess you can just override cog_load in the cog

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/#getting-started

[slate swan]

How do I make the print say Logged in as bot#0001 without saying the bot's username and tag. Here's my code

async def on_ready():
    print("Logged in")```

[lament depot]

GitHub

[bot] #1 Add "Now playing" status

[smoky sinew]

????

how do you make the print say the bot username and tag without saying the bot username or tag??

[slate swan]

logged in as the bots username and tag

yes i think self.user or something i tried but didnt work

[smoky sinew]

where'd you get self from

one sec

[rare echo]

bot.user or self.bot.user

[slate swan]

oh okay thanks

[smoky sinew]

just do str(bot.user)

[smoky sinew]

where'd you get self from though

[rare echo]

if hes in a cog

[smoky sinew]

i mean cogs don't have to have an attribute named bot

still though

[smoky sinew]

i hate making views with state

so annoying why does the view system have to be like this

[dense jackal]

Hi! When a user types in the bot’s dm, this text appear. From there, they can choose if they want to create a ticket or cancel the interaction. Although, we found a glitch that if you send 2 messages, the text will sent twice and then, you will be able to create 2 tickets at once. Can someone help me to code so that it does a sticky message instead of resending? My script is: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/yidukekala

[smoky sinew]

ctx in on_message

what does opened_ticket equal??

@dense jackal

@dense jackal also, don't connect to your database each time you want to query something, you should have one shared connection

the server has two factor moderation enabled

[naive briar]

Enable your own

[smoky sinew]

actually i'm not sure, it might be the bot owner's 2fa

[dense jackal]

Aight so what do I do now

[dense jackal]

Wdym by that

[smoky sinew]

connect to the database once and store it as a variable

[dense jackal]

I did that script with a friend im not that good on coding

[smoky sinew]

and then reuse that connection

[dense jackal]

Imma need a demonstration tbh cause

Im kinda lost

[smoky sinew]

sorry i cannot right now, maybe ask in #databases

[dense jackal]

A friend coded most of the things. Anyways @slate swan I dont have anymore errors rn

[smoky sinew]

venad coded it?

[dense jackal]

Na

Yeah

I deleted my db and restarted it, it worked

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[smoky sinew]

don't have so many connections

it might have connected twice or something like that

[dense jackal]

Yep, it always used to connect twice

[smoky sinew]

that's not good...

two functions are competing to write to the database file

that's how you get corruption

[dense jackal]

I see

Mind adding me and explaining to me how to do it later?

[smoky sinew]

sure

[dense jackal]

[naive briar]

All argument of add_field are keyword only

!d discord.Embed.add_field

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.add\_field

add_field(*, name, value, inline=True)```
Adds a field to the embed object.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining. Can only be up to 25 fields.

[graceful ermine]

Ok

and just to double check

keywords are things that are in the async function?

@naive briar

[naive briar]

No

[graceful ermine]

What is it then? I kinda forgot

[sick birch]

!kwargs

[unkempt canyon]

The `*args` and `**kwargs` parameters

These special parameters allow functions to take arbitrary amounts of positional and keyword arguments. The names args and kwargs are purely convention, and could be named any other valid variable name. The special functionality comes from the single and double asterisks (*). If both are used in a function signature, *args must appear before **kwargs.

Single asterisk
*args will ingest an arbitrary amount of positional arguments, and store it in a tuple. If there are parameters after *args in the parameter list with no default value, they will become required keyword arguments by default.

Double asterisk
**kwargs will ingest an arbitrary amount of keyword arguments, and store it in a dictionary. There can be no additional parameters after **kwargs in the parameter list.

Use cases
• Decorators (see /tag decorators)
• Inheritance (overriding methods)
• Future proofing (in the case of the first two bullet points, if the parameters change, your code won't break)
• Flexibility (writing functions that behave like dict() or print())

See /tag positional-keyword for information about positional and keyword arguments

[sick birch]

Sheesh, not that

[unkempt canyon]

Positional vs. keyword arguments

Functions can take two different kinds of arguments. A positional argument is just the object itself. A keyword argument is a name assigned to an object.

Example

>>> print('Hello', 'world!', sep=', ')
Hello, world!

The first two strings 'Hello' and world!' are positional arguments.
The sep=', ' is a keyword argument.

Note
A keyword argument can be passed positionally in some cases.

def sum(a, b=1):
    return a + b

sum(1, b=5)
sum(1, 5) # same as above

Somtimes this is forced, in the case of the pow() function.

The reverse is also true:

>>> def foo(a, b):
...     print(a, b)
...
>>> foo(a=1, b=2)
1 2
>>> foo(b=1, a=2)
2 1

More info
• Keyword only arguments
• Positional only arguments
• /tag param-arg (Parameters vs. Arguments)

[sick birch]

I guess that's a bit better

[golden portal]

the tag should also talk about / and * tbh

[naive briar]

You're an anime girl now?

[slate swan]

!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.

How does logging work in 2.0? It says that the logger is now built-in the documentation.

[unkempt mauve]

Hello guys, from yesterday, if you remember, I had an issue with buttons which is solved

[slate swan]

The setting up logging page seems to be detailing logging for pre-2.0 discordpy.

[smoky sinew]

ok

[polar ice]

Hello, so my code connects to a game hoster. it downloads the logs and then i parse them.
for some reason i keep getting the error:

I/O operation on closed file.

Any clues to what im doing wrong? am i closing the file in the wrong section?
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/orabofamuf

[sick birch]

Full traceback, please

[polar ice]

@sick birch Im not getting anything. it's on a loop and then it just continues?

[sick birch]

It's probably the poor use of try/except

It's making the errors much less useful

[polar ice]

Ahh i see, any ideas how i can improve it?

[sick birch]

raise error instead of print(error) for now but you should probably get that fixed later

[polar ice]

Still the same, with raise error

[sick birch]

Your console should spit out a better error message, no?

[polar ice]

No, exactly the same still :/

this server is not for paid work

[silver quest]

oh

[dense jackal]

@hushed galleon can I ping you tomorrow to continue this conversation? Its getting late and I really gotta go

[hushed galleon]

#databases message

keep a dictionary of users to their ticket views and look in that to see if a user has one still running
the idea is sessentially: ```py
ticket_views = {}

After sending a view, store it in dictionary using the member (or ID) as the key:

await message.channel.send(..., view=ticketbuttons)
ticket_views[message.author] = ticketbuttons

When checking to create a ticket, see if they have an older view in progress:

old_view = ticket_views.get(message.author)
if old_view is not None and not old_view.is_finished():
... # tell them no or something```

[dense jackal]

Oh

[hushed galleon]

i might not be available tomorrow but you can link back to this and your initial question as context for someone else to help

[dense jackal]

Alright thank you!

[woeful magnet]

Tell me how to use thread in discord.py

[echo wasp]

adding a reaction doesn't work because of positional only

how does it work in 2.2?

[hushed galleon]

you uh, dont use a keyword argument

i.e. message.add_reaction("emoji here")

[echo wasp]

what if I'm using like :Giveaways: ?

[vale wing]

You should be able to, but better to use full format like !this

[echo wasp]

how the heck do i get that?

[vale wing]

\

Backslash before emoji

[echo wasp]

i'm confused

[echo wasp]

how do i get that format because it is not working for me

the error i get

[vale wing]

Look at function signature

!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`.

[vale wing]

All arguments before / are positional-only

And you are providing emoji as keyword argument

[echo wasp]

I'm confused what positional-only means as I have never seen it

[vale wing]

Opposite of keyword

oh ok thank you

[woeful magnet]

can anybody send me material about how to make mass dm bot?

[meager chasm]

we dont help with malicious projects here

[slate swan]

what do you mean mass dm bot isnt that against tos?

[woeful magnet]

Oh I am sorry

Then can anybody send me screen record of mass dm bot working? I only need screen record.

[slate swan]

Huh?

[slate swan]

Bro read channel description

We dont do that here

[woeful magnet]

yes sir

[woeful magnet]

What is client.say() in discord.py?

What does @client.command(pass_context = True) mean?

[vale wing]

Some pretty outdated stuff

So outdated I doubt it even existed

[bright wedge]

client.say is old

Use .send

[vale wing]

I remember seeing it in like v1.0 migration guide

So that's hella old

[woeful magnet]

What does @client.command(pass_context = True) mean?

[vale wing]

Outdated too, pass_context is deprecated

Find a newer tutorial

[woeful magnet]

than what was the meaning of pass_context?

[vale wing]

Whether to pass ctx argument to function

[woeful magnet]

await client.send_message(member, content)
await client.say("DM Sent To : {} ✅ ".format(member))

what is send_message?

difference with send?

[bright wedge]

just use send

[woeful magnet]

instead say and send_message?

[bright wedge]

send_message it's for interactions

[naive briar]

Which year is this

[bright wedge]

Well

He just download a code from GitHub ig

And he trying to make it works

[woeful magnet]

yeah

u right

[bright wedge]

And this is for bot

Or selfbot?

[woeful magnet]

bot

And install the new version 2.+

[woeful magnet]

can u help me make it into updated one?

[bright wedge]

Docs can for sure

[woeful magnet]

I am new to python

[woeful magnet]

which part do I have to update in my code above?

[bright wedge]

Man

[woeful magnet]

okay

what is ctx.message.server.members?

[slate swan]

Message has no server attribute, it's guild

!d discord.Message.guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.guild

The guild that the message belongs to, if applicable.

[calm sapphire]

!e

Command Help

!eval [python_version] <code, ...>
Can also use: e

Run Python code and get the results.

This command supports multiple lines of code, including code wrapped inside a formatted code block. Code can be re-evaluated by editing the original message within 10 seconds and clicking the reaction that subsequently appears.

If multiple codeblocks are in a message, all of them will be joined and evaluated, ignoring the text outside of them.

By default your code is run on Python's 3.11 beta release, to assist with testing. If you run into issues related to this Python version, you can request the bot to use Python 3.10 by specifying the python_version arg and setting it to 3.10.

We've done our best to make this sandboxed, but do let us know if you manage to find an issue with it!

lol

[woeful magnet]

Then to get all members above, what do I have to do?

[calm sapphire]

i cant figure out how to make a working welcome message

[naive briar]

Enable the members intent

[woeful magnet]

How?

[vale wing]

Quite easily

[calm sapphire]

how

[vale wing]

By simply listening to on_member_join

And having members intent on

[calm sapphire]

without cogs or database?

[naive briar]

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

🤷

[vale wing]

If you wanna have separate messages for guilds, you would have to use db of course

Cog are just a method of code organisation

[calm sapphire]

one message

for all

[vale wing]

Then it is as simple as that

[woeful magnet]

thx

[calm sapphire]

then what

[vale wing]

Nothing

It's simple event listen

Is the bot for multiple guilds

[woeful magnet]

@client.command()
async def send(ctx, *, content: str):
for member in ctx.message.guild.members:
try:
await client.send_message(member, content)

When I run this command, it doesnt work

[vale wing]

Mass DMing is prohibited

Your bot will get blocked like really quickly

[woeful magnet]

Oh really?

But this bot is run in my server

[vale wing]

Just ping everyone in your server, what's the point of mass DMing

[woeful magnet]

try to test "await client.send_message(member, content)"
client.send_message(member, content)
what does it mean?

[vale wing]

Who told you to "try to test" 🧐

[woeful magnet]

btw, client.send_message(member, content)
what does it mean?

[naive briar]

Why are you trying to use it while you don't t even know what it means

And it doesn't even exist

im trying to edit the button.emoji using wait_for reaction, when the user add the reaction i want the bot add this emoji to button.emoji

[vale wing]

You don't have to cast reaction.emoji to str

What does not work?

[vale wing]

By using response.edit_message, you are responding to interaction, but you already responded to it with response.send_message, you need to edit original response

Dunno what's the method for that in dpy

!d discord.Interaction.edit_original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.edit\_original\_response

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

Edits the original interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to [`InteractionMessage.edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionMessage.edit "discord.InteractionMessage.edit") in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

This method is also the only way to edit the original message if the message sent was ephemeral.

[vale wing]

This

Actually wait

Why did you remove that send_message line from code

At that point you are not responding to interaction at all

Use interaction.response.send_message instead of interaction.channel.send

[cursive spindle]

then how i will use wait_for to interaction.response.send_message ?

[vale wing]

You should be able to get the response message

[vale wing]

!d discord.Interaction.original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.original\_response

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

Fetches the original interaction response message associated with the interaction.

If the interaction response was a newly created message (i.e. through [`InteractionResponse.send_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.send_message "discord.InteractionResponse.send_message") or [`InteractionResponse.defer()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.defer "discord.InteractionResponse.defer"), where `thinking` is `True`) then this returns the message that was sent using that response. Otherwise, this returns the message that triggered the interaction (i.e. through a component).

Repeated calls to this will return a cached value.

i get this AFK command from chatbot, i don't know where the problem the bot didn't auto reply when AFK user mentioned

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    c_afk = False

    if c_afk and not message.content.startswith('!'):
        
        reason = c_afk.get(message.author.id, None)
        if reason:
            # Send an auto-reply
            reply = f'{message.author.mention} is AFK. Reason: {reason}'
            await message.channel.send(reply)

    await client.process_commands(message)

[velvet temple]

Is there a bot that has a command to mass role users like
?role @sudden depot
[Long list of discord ids]

Oops sorry whoever I just pinged

[queen wren]

It's actually interaction.followup

[vale wing]

That's different

[queen wren]

Documentation says that to continue interacting with app commands but already used interaction.response must use interaction.followup

[vale wing]

He needs the original response message to wait for reaction on it, no additional responses

From what I could see

[queen wren]

So interaction.message if the message is waiting for is the same of the response one.

||Must excuse my english||

[vale wing]

Only available in component interactions

Not sure if that's a component interaction, I don't remember his problem

[queen wren]

I read it and its to edit the button.emoji depending on the reaction that interaction's message gets

[vale wing]

Yeah in that case they can use message attribute

[queen wren]

Yep

[queen wren]

You can do that with dpy

By using FlagConverter class and a simple command.

[vale wing]

User select is an option too

[queen wren]

Yeah, but to mass role add

So (I think) the best way is to use a Tuple parameter in a FlagConverter class

Discord bot role management not working / Error 403 Even when auth'ed as Administrator, Any kind of role modifications result in a 403 error.
@bot.command(name='mute')
@commands.has_permissions(manage_roles=True)
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name="Muted")
if not role:
role = await ctx.guild.create_role(name="Muted")
for channel in ctx.guild.channels:
await channel.set_permissions(role, send_messages=False, speak=False)
await member.add_roles(role, reason=reason)
await ctx.send(f'Muted {member.mention}')

here is the mute code, what are ur suggestions?

Formatting code on discord

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.

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

[echo wasp]

reaction role not working but not putting error in console

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/aqasirasec

[potent spear]

full cog please

also, is any command working in that cog?

[potent spear]

first if statement is always false...

[potent spear]

full error traceback?

[echo wasp]

yes

[echo wasp]

why do you need it/

[potent spear]

you're not showing all relevant code

[echo wasp]

I am that isn't working

there is nothing else for it

[potent spear]

just do as I say please...

have you tried debugging? (checking if the event even gets triggered / ... )

[echo wasp]

how do i debug it?

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/uroyehewaw

[potent spear]

the simplest yet most ineffective way is just by printing some stuff in the event

[potent spear]

aight, so the on_member_join event does "work"?

[echo wasp]

yes

everything works

except that

[echo wasp]

it is triggering

but it's not adding a role

[potent spear]

what have printed?

[echo wasp]

the print line i added in

[potent spear]

you'll have to show me, I can't smell code unfortunately

[echo wasp]

all i did was add this line in both print("role was triggered")

[potent spear]

still, you'll have to show me every change you make

[echo wasp]

that is the change i made

so i know it's triggering

Hi. I'm trying to set an embed image that's being made with Pillow
but the bot ends up sending the image first and then the embed without the image. It's strictly necessary to save the image on disk for this to work? c':

file = discord.File(
    result_buffer, filename=f"a_wild_{document['name']}_appeared!.jpeg"
)
embed = discord.Embed(
    title=f"A wild {document['name']} has appeared!", color=0x05E1E1
)
embed.set_image(url=f"attachment://{file.filename}")
await ctx.send(file=file, embed=embed)

[potent spear]

it's not

#discord-bots message

since you like code examples:

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def check(ctx ,user: discord.Member):
        x =  requested.find_one()
        if user.id == x["userid"]:
            await ctx.send("User is in the database")
        else:
            await ctx.send("User is not in the database")

this isnt working well
discord.ext.commands.errors.MemberNotFound: Member "1" not found.

if member not found then send message User is not in the database

how to do that?

[potent spear]

full error traceback?

[cloud dawn]

What is x?

[potent spear]

what's this supposed to do?
x = requested.find_one()

looks like you're not familiar with getting something from a DB

[cloud dawn]

You're getting this error because the memberConverter couldn't find a member with 1 and you're not catching the error.

[slate swan]

i want bot to find the userid in requested collection

if user id is not there send message

@client.command()
async def check(ctx ,user: discord.Member):
        x =  requested.find_one()
        if user.id == x["userid"]:
            await ctx.send("User is in the database")
        elif user.id != x["userid"]:
            await ctx.send("User is not in the database")

this would work ig?

When you pass 1 it tries to convert 1 to Member since it fails it raises an error

[potent spear]

it would not

[cloud dawn]

In this case the member does not exists at all so you don't even need to check.

[slate swan]

Or at least should

[echo wasp]

so how do i fix this issue?

can it not find the role?

[potent spear]

do as I told you...

send EVERY code change you make in an event, not just "I added this line"

[echo wasp]

ok

[potent spear]

I have a feeling your if statement is never True

[slate swan]

how to fix it?

[potent spear]

you have 2 options

[echo wasp]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/aluwekasit

[potent spear]

either you use a global error handler, OR a specific command error handler

[cloud dawn]

I recommend making a global error handler.

[echo wasp]

that would make sense

[echo wasp]

i have no error handler rn

[potent spear]

does it print any of those?

[echo wasp]

yes

[potent spear]

message wasn't for you

[potent spear]

alr, now add this

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def check(ctx, user: discord.Member):
    if user.id in requested.find_one():
        await ctx.send("User is in the database")
    else:
        await ctx.send("User is not in the database")

i am trying this

[potent spear]

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_raw_reaction_add(self, payload):
        print("role was triggered")
        guild = self.client.get_guild(payload.guild_id)
        if payload.emoji.name == ":Giveaways:" and payload.message_id == 1082332670584950824:
            print("got here")
            role = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Gw ping")
            if role is not None:
                print("found role")
                member = discord.utils.find(lambda m: m.id == payload.user_id, guild.members)
                print(f"member: {member}")
                if member is not None:
                    await member.add_roles(role)
       else: print("else")```

[potent spear]

we know, have you read what we told you?

[cloud dawn]

🗿

[potent spear]

you're getting a COMMAND argument error, that's something you can't handle in the command itself

it has nothing to do with what's inside your command, your command could be empty, you'll still get the same error

[potent spear]

@echo wasp try and see what this prints
