[echo wasp]

ok

[slate swan]

Side note: best off not naming a Member object "user", a member is not the same as a user

[echo wasp]

I got else

[potent spear]

I second this

[cloud dawn]

Third

[potent spear]

alr, then you know what's wrong, right? your if statement is not True, most likely the
if payload.emoji.name == ":Giveaways:"

[slate swan]

what about try except will that work?

[potent spear]

It will not

[echo wasp]

so how do i fix it?

[potent spear]

print the payload.emoji.name and see what that puts out

(above the if statement ofc 🧠 )

[cloud dawn]

try:# Don't use
    @client.comman# Don't used()# Don't use
    async def check(ctx, user: discord.Member):
        if user.id in requested.find_one():# Don't use
            await ctx.send("User is in the database")# Don't use
        else: # Don't use
            await ctx.send("User is not in the database")# Don't use
except:
    pass

[unborn bluff]

Sending the file alone is ok, but I don't know how to send the image inside the discord.embed, embed.set_image only accepts https, and the attachment url isn't working.

[potent spear]

I'd definitely censor that

[slate swan]

[potent spear]

show current code again pls

[slate swan]

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

???

[echo wasp]

I over wrote the == as it is just Giveaways no :Giveaways:

[potent spear]

try and see 🤷‍♂️

[potent spear]

@cloud dawn that's your issue now

[slate swan]

nah it not works

[echo wasp]

that worked

[potent spear]

good, have fun!

c':

[slate swan]

what?

mine didnt worked

[potent spear]

your image is never saved locally, right?

[unborn bluff]

Nope

[unborn bluff]

Getting it from the api c':

[potent spear]

you don't need the set_image method

look closely

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error It's an error relating with how Discord.py handles commands. Hence we advice you to make a global error handler.

[unkempt canyon]

discord.discord.ext.commands.on\_command\_error

discord.ext.commands.on_command_error(ctx, error)```
An error handler that is called when an error is raised inside a command either through user input error, check failure, or an error in your own code.

A default one is provided ([`Bot.on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error "discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error")).

[unborn bluff]

Oh, I'll check

[potent spear]

better:
Docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/commands.html#error-handling
Example: https://gist.github.com/EvieePy/7822af90858ef65012ea500bcecf1612

[potent spear]

the attachment:// BS is only needed for local files

you just need to pass your file object

[languid siren]

discord py is soooooo weird

can someone help me make a bot that simply says hi when I type hi??? WHy is it so hard?

[potent spear]

||that's what she mostly says||

good code examples are key for beginners

[cloud dawn]

@slate swan Look above for some examples. ```py
@Cog.listener('on_command_error')
async def err_handler(self, ctx: Context, error: Any) -> None:
# if command has local error handler, return
if hasattr(ctx.command, 'on_error'):
return

    # Get original error instead of a global Invoke error
    error = getattr(error, 'original', error)

    # Standard debug to log to catch unknown errors
    logger.debug(type(error))

    if isinstance(error, CommandNotFound):
        logger.debug(f"{ctx.author} this command does not exist")
    elif isinstance(error, HTTPException):
        error.text = error.text.replace("\n", " ")
        logger.warn(f"HTTPException: {error.text}")
    elif isinstance(error, NotFound):
        error.text = error.text.replace("\n", " ")
        logger.warn(f"NotFound: {error.text}")
    elif isinstance(error, CheckFailure):
        logger.debug(f"Check failed for {ctx.author} most likely has no permission to execute this")
    else:
        logger.error(error)

[languid siren]

i have found 0 code examples that work

[potent spear]

that's because you're most likely copy pasting

[cloud dawn]

GIT CLONE

Petition for everyone to work with docker so I don't have to set anything up.

[languid siren]

is there any good discord py tutorial?

[potent spear]

the docs

[languid siren]

lol

[potent spear]

don't use YT

[languid siren]

Il try

[cloud dawn]

What are you trying to do? @languid siren

[potent spear]

#discord-bots message

[echo wasp]

how do i define a global value?

i tried using reaction_roles = someid

and it says that is not defined

[cloud dawn]

Uhhh

How are you using it? I don't really want to recommend using global since there are way better methods.

[echo wasp]

I want to use that value in one cog to define that same id 4 different times

if not more

[languid siren]

i want to create a bot that gets data from an api and does something similar like this:

edits a specific message every 60 seconds (or another speicific timeframe ill decide)

[thin raft]

send code

probably just use self @cloud dawn

[cloud dawn]

This (You get it ^^)

😔

[thin raft]

reactions 😭

[potent spear]

you're looking for "tasks" in the docs

[languid siren]

the thing is im a total noob and i see things like async/await and decorators for the first time (i used a decorator once was with flask)

thanks a lot. I will check it all out.

[potent spear]

yeah, having basic python knowledge is key here

[languid siren]

async/await seems cool xD

[potent spear]

it is

[echo wasp]

What should i do?

[cloud dawn]

No idea what you have now..?

[echo wasp]

reaction_roles == someid

[cloud dawn]

But from where?

[potent spear]

a list can't be equal to a single value...

[cloud dawn]

I mean... no sorry I won't sir..

[echo wasp]

i was thinking it worked liked this

[potent spear]

as mentioned earlier
#discord-bots message
for everyone trying to help you

[cloud dawn]

I still don't know how or where reaction_roles is created and compared to an id.

[echo wasp]

i want reaction_roles to have the id value

[cloud dawn]

Yeah okay but in what context do you want reaction_roles?

[echo wasp]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/uxaqirufiv

[magic granite]

How bad is the idea of enabling all intents for a bot? And why?

[cloud dawn]

It isn't necessarily bad it's just that if you have enabled intents for something you aren't using. That's wasted resources, besides, it's good to know what you are using. On top of that some do also need extended privileges beyond 100 servers, what not always will be granted.

[potent spear]

I'd definitely opt for "less is more"
-> try to keep resources as minimal as possible

[magic granite]

Might as well enable all on development and restrict down based on final feature list

[cloud dawn]

You'd be surprised how much a bot can do without any intents.

[potent spear]

I'd keep it as minimal as possible too in development, so you don't have to question "why it works in development but not in prod"

[echo wasp]

I was wanting the context of it to store the id to be provided when changed at the top

[languid siren]

documentation is really helpful indeed. Im so hyped nwo

[cloud dawn]

If you are in a cog just use the self at the top.

[potent spear]

on github are examples too which aren't documented on the website

[echo wasp]

how?

self.reaction_roles?

[cloud dawn]

🎊 Anotherone converted to the ways of the docs.

[cloud dawn]

Yep.

[potent spear]

mhm, then your reaction_roles will be an attribute of your cog class

=> you'll be able to access that attribute in different commands / events in the same cog

[magic granite]

Yea I'm gonna need all three of those intents

Considering the intensive moderation plugin I'm adding....yea, I'm gonna need them

[cloud dawn]

Well ever since the automod feature they're most likely not going to approve message content for moderation.

[magic granite]

Safeguards against deletes and backlogging message on-demand I guess ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'm not using Carl/Dyno/what-have-you for a reason

Mainly, I hate their dreadful UI/UX

[unborn bluff]

Can't get it to work, it still sends the image outside the discord.embed. I guess I'll just save it on disk :'(

[slate swan]

show code

[potent spear]

this

[magic granite]

Right. Forgot about automod's dreadful POSIX regex engine. I prefer PCRE

More like I wrote too much PCRE regex and I can't get rid of my lookarounds

[unborn bluff]

async with self.bot.http_session.get(
    document["sprites"]["front_default"]
) as res:
    sprite = await res.read()
    sprite = Image.open(BytesIO(sprite)).convert("RGBA")

    # Paste the sprite onto the background
    x_offset = (bg.width - sprite.width) // 2
    y_offset = (bg.height - sprite.height) // 2

)
# embed.set_image(url=f"attachment://{file.filename}")
await ctx.send(embed=embed, file=file)

Found this question but it haven't been answered yet :') https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74164047/send-a-pillow-image-in-a-discords-embed

[rancid tulip]

To make sure the image is added to the embed before the message is sent, you can try creating the discord.Embed object first, setting the image URL to None, and then adding the image as a file attachment to the message using the add_field() method. Here's an example: ```embed = discord.Embed(
title=f"A wild {document['name']} has appeared!",
color=0x05E1E1
)
embed.set_image(url=None)
file = discord.File(result_buffer, filename=f"a_wild_{document['name']}_appeared!.jpeg")
embed.set_footer(text=f"Image credit: {image_credit}")
await ctx.send(
embed=embed.add_field(
name="Image",
value=f"Here's a picture of {document['name']}!",
inline=False
).set_image(url=f"attachment://{file.filename}"),
file=file
)

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

[slate swan]

why'd you comment that set_image line, it's needed

and yeah the method works for sure

[shrewd apex]

check mentions bro

[slate swan]

i just came online wait

[river plank]

how do i fix the "ServerSelectionTimeoutError" in pymongo ?

[shrewd apex]

make sure ur ip is allowed

also ur internet has proper ssl certification and stuff

[river plank]

uh

im using it thru replit

like mongodb atlas

[warm summit]

Umm hey suppose i want to install discord.py on host server what should I write in requirements.txt
Just discord.py or...

[river plank]

^^

[echo wasp]

how do i remove a reaction from a different message?

[honest shoal]

!d discord.Message.remove_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.remove\_reaction

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

Remove a reaction by the member from 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").

If the reaction is not your own (i.e. `member` parameter is not you) then [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") is needed.

The `member` parameter must represent a member and meet the [`abc.Snowflake`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Snowflake "discord.abc.Snowflake") abc.

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`.

[echo wasp]

what about removing all reactions

[honest shoal]

clear_reactions()

[unborn bluff]

I changed the filename and it worked... The problem was the "!" in the filename... ,_,

tysm ,_,

[echo wasp]

how do i fetch a message to clear the reactions on

[honest shoal]

!d discord.Channel.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

Nope.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[honest shoal]

!d discord.TextChannel.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.fetch\_message

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

Retrieves a single [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") from the destination.

[echo wasp]

message = await fetch_message(id)
await message.remove_reaction(payload.emoji.name, member)```

like that?

[honest shoal]

the format is correct, but the rest code is wrong tho

[echo wasp]

explain

[honest shoal]

unless you tell what you're trying to do there isn't much to explain

[echo wasp]

i'm removing a reaction that shouldn't be on the reaction roles

[honest shoal]

oh

then just disable the permission from discord to add reactions instead of making a long mess

[echo wasp]

lol it's not that long

and i will but just in case someone with admin perms adds one

[honest shoal]

ok

[honest shoal]

you need to specify the channel here first

[echo wasp]

why do i need to fetch the id

of the channel

[honest shoal]

you're fetching a msg using its id and channel should be specified

because that's how it works

[echo wasp]

ok how do i fetch the channel

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel Use this to return a channel/thread by ID

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_channel

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

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

[echo wasp]

so how do i format this with fetch message?

[honest shoal]

if you get the channel inside a variable called x, then it will be:

message = await x.fetch_message(id)```

id being the message id

[echo wasp]

ok thanks

[thin raft]

Can you detect when a member gets timeouted?

member_update mb

[slate swan]

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change...

[slate swan]

You can compare the timeout of before and after

[thin raft]

idk why I didn't check the docs before asking mb

[thin raft]

I will check it

[slate swan]

It's ok :)

[slate swan]

how would you copy permissions_for a channel to a new temp channel? like each possible role that has access to that channel carries over to the temp channel?

[lost cliff]

I recommend using interactions.py if youre trying to do slash commands

[lost cliff]

not responding to anyone, just yknow

[queen wren]

Use discord.Channel.clone(), the change the name, description or anything you want.

!d discord.TextChannel.clone

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.clone

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

Clones this channel. This creates a channel with the same properties as this 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.

New in version 1.1.

[queen wren]

This also works with discord.VoiceChannel, discord.StageChannel, etc.

[slate swan]

this won't let me make the channel in a specific category though right? i'd have to use the await move to do that after created right?

[queen wren]

Yes.

But it's the easiest way ig.

[vale wing]

There's edit() and it allows you to edit most of channel's properties including parent category within a single API call, not a problem

!d discord.TextChannel.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.edit

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

Edits 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.

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

Changed in version 1.4: The `type` keyword-only parameter was added.

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

[vale wing]

The solution with mininum API calls would be just to create a new channel with parsing overwrites from the base instead of cloning it

[sick birch]

Any particular reason?

[lost cliff]

Its pretty easy to work with, other way, I just like how it works honestly

[fair shuttle]

im sorry if thats stupid lol im learning buttons but i dont understand this error

[sick birch]

Capital V

discord.ui.View

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(value=0, **kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

New in version 1.5.

[sick birch]

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True # required for prefix commands

client = discord.Client(intents=intents)
# OR
bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)

[fair shuttle]

i was also thinking do i really need to add that for the roles buttons work?

[sick birch]

You only need this if you want your buttons to work after restarts

[smoky sinew]

interesting

[graceful ermine]

How could we fix this?

[smoky sinew]

i'm not sure i will look into it

[dense jackal]

everything sends in x2. my script = https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

My bot is running just once and I only have one python open

[graceful ermine]

@dense jackal send your code

I can't see it

[dense jackal]

Oh wtf

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/oyobizuhoz @graceful ermine

[smoky sinew]

i told you yesterday did you see?

oh nvm that's a different screenshot

why are you back to the other code btw

[dense jackal]

Ah helper from here told me it was better the old way

Idk

[smoky sinew]

why so

[dense jackal]

Idk ask @hushed galleon

[hushed galleon]

#databases message
#databases message

[dense jackal]

do you have an idea why everything is duplicating?

[hushed galleon]

are you running your bot twice?

[dense jackal]

**

how do I even see if my bot is running twice?

[hushed galleon]

that can get tough since it could be hosted in the background on your computer or on another computer entirely

[dense jackal]

so should I restart my pc?

[hushed galleon]

that might work

your code doesnt look like it should be replying to you twice

[dense jackal]

alright

[smoky sinew]

wouldn't connecting every time still be slower because it has to wait for the other transactions to finish before committing

[hushed galleon]

might want to discuss in #databases instead but the point of SQLite waiting is to maintain ACID, and with a single connection you'll immediately violate those invariants unless you put your own lock on it, plus i described the write-ahead log where readers don't need to wait (while having an isolated transaction)
(and with short-lived connections the pause will only be momentary)

(discussing here
#databases message)

[smoky sinew]

why would it break acid? wouldn't one of the transactions just wait for the other?

[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 the embed stops resending everytime they type in? My script is: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/yidukekala

[hushed galleon]

^ previously suggested solution

[rare echo]

check if the message already exists with a dictionary

[hushed galleon]

if you're struggling to implement it, perhaps your friend could help out?

[dense jackal]

Hes not available for the next weeks

And hes not really experienced with discord py

He did his best but

[rare echo]

when you send the message you can append it to a dictionary with perhaps the userid and either a toggle, or the message id, and when its done remove it from the dict

[dense jackal]

Should I go check on youtube how to do that?

[rare echo]

or you might be able to get away with a list of the user id

if you dont know about dictionaries im sure theres resources, idk any off the top of my head

[dense jackal]

I see

Im new to that python stuff 😅

Im trying to create a bot for my community

[rare echo]

you might be able to get away with just appending a list

buffer = []
buffer.append(ctx.user.id) # stopping them from making another
do the stuff
buffer.remove(ctx.user.id) # Allowing them to request another

youd just have to run checks on what you need to do

!resources

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[rare echo]

ima have a look

[dense jackal]

Should I try to put that in my script then?

[dense jackal]

Alright!

[rare echo]

https://codesolid.com/python-lists/

this gives a quick rundown, just imagine using the userid

youll essentially check if the userid is in the list, if it is, a simple "you already have one"
if its not youll be adding them to the list and opening a message/ticket

[blazing flint]

help making a mute command?

[woeful magnet]

can anybody tell me how to make giveaway bot?

[vale wing]

Better invite one, why reinvent the wheel

[vale wing]

Making a giveaway bot is not a simple task, but here are general steps you need to follow in order to create a giveaway bot:

1. Create development basic tools, including bot subclass, database methods and other required things (if you are disnake user you can use my template https://github.com/Exenifix/disnake-bot-template-postgres)
2. Add tables into database that will store users who participated in a giveaway and additional data
3. Create giveaway system - how users would enter giveaway and how bot would give reward to them

[woeful magnet]

which file is for giveaway bot in your repo?

[vale wing]

There's none I hate them

Repo is a template for speeding up development, empty bot so basically

[woeful magnet]

oops

[woeful magnet]

plz tell me how to create giveaway system or provide me material to study

If I hire bot dev to make it , then how much do I pay for that?

[fair shuttle]

quick question tho cuz i cant find anything about that lol for reaction roles i want to make some with select menu is that the same thing of the button so i can js replace that by the good thing or its a whole diff thing?( also if you have the doc would b cool cuz i cant find it

[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.

[shrewd apex]

u would have to start with basic python learn till oop learn asyncio and about apis and since its a giveaway bot u need to learn about databases

[woeful magnet]

can u introduce some material to study, thx

[shrewd apex]

for up till oop u can look at youtube corey schafer on yt

asyncio and apis u would have to google it up

[river plank]

heyy

ok so the database works in the morning/afternoon

then i get the server timeout error

[vale wing]

What database

And how do you connect to it

[shrewd apex]

it goes rouge in the night

[vale wing]

When the database is sus

[vale wing]

If you prefer interactive lessons to youtube videos, you can try a learning platform like Stepik

[river plank]

its uh mongodb

[vale wing]

Dunno about that much but will try to figure out if nobody else can help

[shrewd apex]

mongodb don't do that

[vale wing]

How do you connect to it

[river plank]

well

mongoclient

[vale wing]

I mean in code

[shrewd apex]

one reason could be ur ip changed and in network acess u are limited

[river plank]

well

[vale wing]

Is it on localhost or remote

[river plank]

im using replit, with mongodb atlas

Oh heck

Just don't use replit, easy solution

^^

[quick gust]

if you can't manage to buy a vps/server, check this out https://signup.oraclecloud.com

though iirc you'll need a card

[river plank]

oh right

thanks

https://api.pokemontcg.io/v2/cards, why doesnt this exactly work?

[vocal snow]

because response isn't the json data

https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/#requests.Response

it's a Response object

you can use it's .json() method

although for a discord bot you should be using an async http client like aiohttp instead of requests

so i did a role slash command that takes the role id and gets it into an embed -

    async def helpmerole(self,interaction:nextcord.Interaction,
    role_: nextcord.Role = nextcord.SlashOption(name='role', description='Please select a role', required=True)):

                    await cursor.execute('SELECT role_id FROM role WHERE guild = ?', (interaction.guild.id,))
                    role = await cursor.fetchone()
                    if role:

                await interaction.response.send_message(f"Successfuly set the helpme staff role to - {role_.mention}")
            await self.bot.db.commit()
        else:
            await interaction.response.send_message("You need the `administrator` permission to use this slash command!")

when im changing the role it keeps the same role'

[thin raft]

because you arent removing it?

[slate swan]

updating it

do i need to remove or to update it is enough

[thin raft]

send screenshot of SELECT * FROM role;

[slate swan]

did that

[thin raft]

.

and send code as text not screenshot

[slate swan]

i dont have the SELECT * FROM role

[thin raft]

execute SELECT * FROM role; and send the output it sends

do you know SQL?

[slate swan]

okay

yes

[slate swan]

wait where

in the command that takes the role or the command that tags it

how do you check the contents of a table?

is it possible that YT dl is out of service ?

i foudnthe error in my code and then it told me that i needed tthe newest verion, So i upgraded it. it still doesnt work. Im not askin for advice about my discord bot im asking if its possible that youtube.dl no longer works?

[slate swan]

why do i get error with this code? @bot.command() async def commands(message): if message.content.startswith('!commands'): embed = discord.Embed(colour=0x9B59B6, title="List of Commands", type='rich', url=None, description="Hello", timestamp=None) await message.channel.send(embed=embed)

i think i figured it out wait

[thin raft]

you are mixing two concepts

Yeah i figured it out now

[bold python]

waht was it

[warm summit]

If I want to add emoji will it be like emoji = <:emoji:id>??

[naive briar]

Yes? And why don't just test it

[warm summit]

It says syntax error

[naive briar]

Send the code

[terse stream]

can this make me join different servers my its self?

[naive briar]

What

[shrewd fjord]

Yes, "Join server for you"

This application let you join other server without you even knowing

can you give me guideline on how smth like this is made?

Where is the < and >

Not for custom emojis

[naive briar]

I do not accept DMs, and never will

Just ask here

[terse stream]

nvm

oh yeah i didnt see dat was cstom

[naive briar]

Why did you remove the ID

Do you know custom emoji formats

!ducky_sphere

[warm summit]

I did with I'd too

[naive briar]

Then what happened

[warm summit]

Same

[naive briar]

It has be to exactly

<:emoji_name:id>

Change it back and see what happens

[warm summit]

Yeah I know

[fair shuttle]

it suppose to work if you did that tho

you could do windows shift S for screenshot lol

[warm summit]

Oh right

[naive briar]

Is the bot in the server that the emoji is from?

[warm summit]

It's a default emoji but yes he is

[naive briar]

And why is self not the first argument of that method

[warm summit]

📩

[naive briar]

What

How did you get its ID then

It has no ID

And the

<:emoji_name:id>

is only for custom emojis

[warm summit]

Ohh I think I pasted message id

[fair shuttle]

!kekwlaugh

like that

if you have custom emoji

[warm summit]

No I'd still not working

[naive briar]

And?

I don't have any code or error to tell what's wrong

And just put the emoji ❌ in if it's a default one

[terse stream]

what should i do about this?

[fair shuttle]

i could show you cuz i have the exact same code but its too early n im lazy😂

Got it

Now it's working

[fair shuttle]

great

[terse stream]

anyone?

[fair shuttle]

yea?

whats going on

[slate swan]

question about views and buttons.
if i want async def on_button_click:to take the label of the button, change a channel id's channel name, how would that work? i'm like trying to understand discord.ui.buttons and views, but i don't get how they work still x.x

[naive briar]

What library is this

[slate swan]

discord.ui? Button, View?

[naive briar]

That doesn't answer the question

What library is it from? Like discord.py, disnake, ...

[slate swan]

oh discord.py

[naive briar]

There's no such events as on_button_click

[slate swan]

so instead of making a function, i should use discord.Interaction?

[naive briar]

I don't know what that means

[slate swan]

ok. i'll just explain. so i made an embed generator for 10 names at a time. the 10 names will generate into buttons, i'm trying to convert this to update the name of two channels using dictionary comprehension.
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cokagiqago

i just don't know where i'm going wrong with the discord.Interaction

[naive briar]

You did not give the buttons their callbacks

!d discord.ui.Button.callback

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button.callback

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

The callback associated with this UI item.

This can be overridden by subclasses.

[slate swan]

thank you.

[unkempt mauve]

How do I prevent the timeout from executing when the button is clicked before it?
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wacocixeti

[slate swan]

you'd define the timeout in the init/ super init then when you call the view, timeout = None

class ChannelNameView(View):
    def __init__(self, channel_data_dict, channel_id, names, best_name, timeout=180.0):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)

view = ChannelNameView(channel_data_dict, channel_id, names, best_name, timeout=None)

atleast.. that's how i did it.

[slate swan]

i'm sure theres other ways, but this is what i did, 🥲

[warm summit]

How can I fetch the channels in a guild

[slate swan]

a for loop for the guilds, if statement for the guild in question, then it would be like guild.channels i think.

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.

[river plank]

how do i get the name of both attacks?

[vocal snow]

as what datatype

[slate swan]

My .py file to make my bot up doesnt work to open in python, pls check latest #1035199133436354600

[unkempt mauve]

quick question, does restarting your bot resets command cooldown of slash commands (app_commands)?

[vale wing]

Yes

[warm summit]

  async def hi(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.Button):
    c = []
    for channel in interaction.guild.text_channels:
      c.append(channel.name)
    print(c)
    if f"{interaction.user}" in c:
      await interaction.response.send_message(content = "channel exist", ephemeral = True)
    else:  
      await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(f'{interaction.user}')
      await interaction.response.send_message(content = "channel dosnt exist", ephemeral = True)```

[unkempt mauve]

then i need to use a db to restore them right?

[warm summit]

i have a channel named interaction.user but still says channel doesnt exist

[vale wing]

Write the data on disk

[unkempt mauve]

how

[vale wing]

Mm you will need custom cooldown first of all most likely

[unkempt mauve]

i will use db then

[vale wing]

Idk what's it named

I will search for that rq

!d discord.app_commands.checks.dynamic_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.dynamic\_cooldown

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

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

If a `factory` function is given, it must be a function that accepts a single parameter of type [`discord.Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction "discord.Interaction") and must return a [`Cooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Cooldown "discord.app_commands.Cooldown") or `None`. If `None` is returned then that cooldown is effectively bypassed.

Both `key` and `factory` can optionally be coroutines.

[slate swan]

I think its discordapp commands but not sure

oh it is

pip install -U discord-py-slash-command

u did that?

[sick birch]

I thought discord_slash was deprecated

Why do you need ctx

Interaction gives all of it for you

Interaction is the same thing

Pretty much

[river plank]

json

[vocal snow]

?

what datatype do you want the names as i mean

[river plank]

oh

[vocal snow]

do you want them in a list?

[river plank]

sorry

yea sure

[vocal snow]

have you used for loops/list comprehensions before?

[river plank]

yea kindoff

[vocal snow]

so you can use a for loop to go over the "attacks" list, and append the names to a list

for attack in attacks:
    name = attack["name"]

[river plank]

oh

right

[vocal snow]

you could also use a list comprehension; ```py
[atk["name"] for atk in attacks]

[lyric crystal]

Quick question:
Do I need PyCharm to program Discord Bot? Or is Visual Studio Code okay?

[vocal snow]

you can use whatever you like better

[sick birch]

Whichever you're more comfortable with

[scarlet aurora]

can u use ephermal messages in 1.7.3

[sick birch]

Don't believe so

[scarlet aurora]

ok

[frosty parrot]

how can I host my bot free ?

[bold python]

I get this when i try and run my Command but it should be all good. I have everything isntalled and i was just workin on smt else before but now i get this message C:\Users\frede\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\python.exe: can't open file '

any idea as to why

[scarlet aurora]

@sick birch so it's 2.0+ ?

[sick birch]

Yeah

[slate swan]

#965291480992321536

Only free hosting method is to self-host really.

[frosty parrot]

sad

[sick birch]

Only good free hosting

[slate swan]

Yeah

I use Digital Ocean and can recommend them as a good VPS provider

[sick birch]

I'd recommend AWS if you're comfortable with a more complex provider but potentially more services and options

[quick gust]

that's not free either actually, electricity bills 😔

[sick birch]

Pretty much negligible

[quick gust]

true

[karmic shore]

Heyy, what does this mean? Does that not exist anymore?

Or do I have to get the user object?

[slate swan]

avatar_url got changed to avatar.url at some point I think

[karmic shore]

Ah ok thank you

Havent used d.py for a year

Yup works, thanks

[slate swan]

Np

[warm summit]

How can I send message in channel created by button interaction within the same function

[slate swan]

i think it's interaction.response.send_message.

[warm summit]

i figured it out still thanks

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @fair shuttle!

It looks like you tried to attach file type(s) that we do not allow (). We currently allow the following file types: .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .png, .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .webm, .webp, .flac, .m4a, .csv, .json.

Feel free to ask in #community-meta if you think this is a mistake.

[fair shuttle]

oh lol

i got this error but i cant find where the ctx is missing lol

[slate swan]

those are all in venv libs. u'll prolly wanna use try/except blocks to find the error, worst case u can import traceback

[fair shuttle]

ohh okok

this?

[slate swan]

Why you are using discord and getting nextcord error

Did you import it as discord

[fair shuttle]

yes

i did

[slate swan]

Aight then

[fair shuttle]

thats prob a d.py bug

[slate swan]

Do you have d.py installed?

[fair shuttle]

yes i do

[slate swan]

You need to uninstall it

You can only have one discord lib installed

Either nextcord or discord.py

[stray path]

Hey what libraries do you guys suggest for creating discord bots? Didn't the main developer of the main library abandon the project or something?

[velvet compass]

They did, but then they started again

discord.py, disnake, nextcord are all wrappers for interacting with the discord api

Also pycord

[stray path]

Oh alright thanks, which one would you suggest?

[velvet compass]

discord.py seems to be the most used, nextcord and disnake are fine though

[stray path]

Ok, thank you.

[fair shuttle]

any1 know how to fix that in libs? im trying to understand the error

[velvet compass]

Read tracebacks from the bottom up

And what is the first part of the traceback

[velvet compass]

Hmmm. And what does your code look like?

[fair shuttle]

like this

i wanted to create reaction roles w select menu

[velvet compass]

Somewhere you are missing ctx

Or it is not being passed correctly

[sick birch]

Is Role supposed to be a cog?

[fair shuttle]

nope

[sick birch]

Why is it in a class?

[fair shuttle]

sm1 told me it was suppose to be in a class lol

[sick birch]

If it's not supposed to be part of a cog then it isn't supposed to be in a class

[fair shuttle]

so i need to remove the class?

[sick birch]

Yes, and the initializer

[fair shuttle]

? or i need to add something else?

[gusty flax]

Can we see all code

[fair shuttle]

yeah

[gusty flax]

Cause idk what’s happening there

[fair shuttle]

and this is the whole error

[gusty flax]

Why isn’t ur init call in ur init

Can u send a pastebin

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @fair shuttle!

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

[fair shuttle]

the guy who showed me tells me i had to put the self.value[0]

[gusty flax]

What the @fair shuttle

What’s going on in ur select view

[fair shuttle]

idk lmao the dude typed all that 💀

i tought he was helping me

but ig no😂

[gusty flax]

Nah that’s invalid

[fair shuttle]

oh

[gusty flax]

Get rid of that

And

Do commands.command

[gusty flax]

For ur command decorator

[fair shuttle]

this one?

[gusty flax]

No. The role stuff

[fair shuttle]

oh larr

alrr

i have to get rid of that too?

[gusty flax]

Where is that

[fair shuttle]

it was the selectView part

cuz it was basically view = SelectView

[gusty flax]

Why do u have a command inside of a select. And what do u instantiate the view in the command in the select in the view?

That’s a whole lot of wrong

[river plank]

How do I loop thru a section of a code ?

[gusty flax]

While or for loop.

Tho u can do a task loop if u wanna look smth with discord

[river plank]

Ohhh

So just the ordinary while and for loop will do the job ?

[slate swan]

Who is well versed in pythone, please write to me in the bos.

Hey how would I recode it where after the user pressed an button the code regenerates the same prompt?

code:

@bot.slash_command(name="ask", description="give you a response with the prompt")
async def ask(interaction: nextcord.Interaction, prompt: str):
    await interaction.response.defer()

    view = Regenerate2(prompt)

        title=f"Here is your answer for {prompt}!",
        description=f"{AI_Message}",
        timestamp=datetime.datetime.now(),
        color=nextcord.Color.green()
    )
    embed.set_footer(text=f"By {interaction.user.name}#{interaction.user.discriminator}", icon_url=interaction.user.avatar.url)

Hey how can I send a custom role in an embed?
Tried this but it just returns none

emoji = str(discord.PartialEmoji(name="128zie", id=1082804342421209171))

also tried this

print(client.get_emoji(1082813090929840211))

and this

embed.add_field(name="Interact with buttons to get your roles!", value=f":128zie: - Select your townhall level

[slate swan]

please help me install the pyqiwip2p library correctly. In the bos

!pypi pyqiwip2p

[unkempt canyon]

pyQiwiP2P v2.0.6

pyQiwiP2P

[slate swan]

just pip install it? and what does this even do

[unreal pelican]

You can send it as a string like "<:emoji_name:emoji_id>"
that should display it right

[brisk rapids]

no I have tried that too and it just sends :128zie:

in text form

[sick birch]

You can get that by typing your emoji like usual in Discord, then putting a backslash before it

!ducky_dave

[brisk rapids]

ok thank you ill try

[smoky sinew]

their error is their extension is not loading

[brisk rapids]

is there a way I could do this for a button too?

like a discord button?

[gusty flax]

Do what

[brisk rapids]

have a custom emoji in the label of the button

[gusty flax]

Yes

[brisk rapids]

something like this

class StrategistRoleButton(discord.ui.Button):

  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(style=discord.ButtonStyle.green, label=f"Strategist :128zie:")

  async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    role = discord.utils.get(interaction.guild.roles, id=strategistRoleId)
    await interaction.user.add_roles(role)
    await interaction.response.send_message(f"You gained the {role.name} role", ephemeral=True)

exept this does not work

[gusty flax]

https://github.com/Canttuchdiz/checkmate_bot/blob/main/checkmate/models/views.py

Check this out

[brisk rapids]

for some reason it changes the long <:name:id> thing to just the name but you get what i mean

let me check

[gusty flax]

Huh?

[fair shuttle]

whats wrong?

[smoky sinew]

why is your cog inside your view

and Cog is capitalized

[gusty flax]

why do u have a nested clas

and why do u have a command inside of your nested class

which is inside of a select

[frosty parrot]

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

    @discord.ui.button(style=discord.ButtonStyle.red, label="Red")
    async def red_color(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button:discord.ui.Button):
        red_role = discord.utils.get(interaction.guild.roles, name="Red")

        await interaction.user.add_roles(red_role)

if __name__=="__main__":
    bot = MyBot(command_prefix="-", intents=discord.Intents.all())
    


    @bot.command(name="selfroles")
    async def self_role(ctx):
        await ctx.send("Give your self a role",view = SelfRoles())```

command not found

[fair shuttle]

i want to know if its possible to remove a role when we click on it via select menu if any1 has the doc would b apreciate iont find it

[bold python]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ui import Select

class SelectView(discord.ui.View):
def init(self, *, timeout=None):
super().init(timeout=timeout)
self.add_item(Select())

class role(commands.Cog):
def init(self, bot):
self.bot = bot

@commands.command()
async def role(self, ctx):
    await ctx.send("pick a role")
    view = SelectView()
    await ctx.send("View created.")

[bold python]

Regarding the "command 'role' not found" error, it could be because you have not loaded the role cog in your bot. You need to load the cog using bot.add_cog(role(bot)) before running the bot. Don’t know if your problem already solved. If not then try this maybe

in

6.10.2. Membership test operations

The operators in and not in test for membership. x in s evaluates to True if x is a member of s, and False otherwise. x not in s returns the negation of x in s. All built-in sequences and set types support this as well as dictionary, for which in tests whether the dictionary has a given key. For container types such as list, tuple, set, frozenset, dict, or collections.deque, the expression x in y is equivalent to any(x is e or x == e for e in y).

For the string and bytes types, x in y is True if and only if x is a substring of y. An equivalent test is y.find(x) != -1. Empty strings are always considered to be a substring of any other string, so "" in "abc" will return True.

[frosty parrot]

ok np

[slate swan]

i'm still stuck on this >.< ... so wait, how does one add the callback if i made the for loop in the view? do i need to define it in an async function then do the for loop?

[naive briar]

Not really, you can set it by setting the attribute

[slate swan]

so like
button.callback = self.on_button_click ?

[naive briar]

Yup

[slate swan]

awesome.
then how would I be able to pass the name of the button to the interaction?
would that be like button.label = name? then in the on_button_click I'd be able to define it like var = button.label?

[naive briar]

Yes, but you can just set it in the button constructor

[slate swan]

which the button constructor would be the for loop. right?

[naive briar]

Would be in that, yes

await interaction.guild.get_channel(voice_channel_id).edit(name=button.label)
AttributeError: 'property' object has no attribute 'get_channel'
but a method would be guild.get_channel to edit a channel name...
cause I see interaction has a guild param, so it should be able to edit it like so... no?

also, the docs recommend not using custom_id for conflicts? should i remove it if label is defined?

[vocal snow]

how is interaction defined?

[slate swan]

interaction=discord.Interaction? i tried interaction:discord.Interaction but it said that
TypeError: ChannelNameView.on_button_click() missing 1 required positional argument: 'interaction'

[vocal snow]

interaction=discord.Interaction is incorrect, that would explain the error

can you share the code for on_button_click?

[slate swan]

ill just send the whole view...
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/amahatitej

[vocal snow]

async def on_button_click(self, button=discord.ui.Button, interaction=discord.Interaction):
``` should be ```py
async def on_button_click(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):

: is a typehint, = gives it a default value

you can remove the typehints entirely if you want

[shrewd fjord]

on_button_click exists on dpy?

[slate swan]

it's just a defined callback function xD

[shrewd fjord]

I thought of event 💀

[slate swan]

so then why was i getting TypeError: ChannelNameView.on_button_click() missing 1 required positional argument: 'interaction' when i had it

[shrewd fjord]

It's a custom function breh

[naive briar]

Oh yeah, that's why you should define it in the init

[shrewd fjord]

Not a button callback

Wait nvm

[slate swan]

so in the init i should define both?
button=discord.ui.Button
interaction=discord.Interaction

[naive briar]

That's not defining

You're creating an alias for a type

[slate swan]

i'm lost now 💀 i thought defining was defining a variable or a def function

[naive briar]

I have a plan

[slate swan]

i'm all eyes and ears >.<

[naive briar]

Uhhhhh

[slate swan]

!d discord.ui.View.interaction_check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.interaction\_check

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

A callback that is called when an interaction happens within the view that checks whether the view should process item callbacks for the interaction.

This is useful to override if, for example, you want to ensure that the interaction author is a given user.

The default implementation of this returns `True`.

Note

If an exception occurs within the body then the check is considered a failure and [`on_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View.on_error "discord.ui.View.on_error") is called.

[slate swan]

this always gets triggered

🤷‍♂️ just make use of it

[naive briar]

I wouldn't use that, too much trouble for a simple things

I'd do something more simple like

class ViewSubclass(ui.View):
    def __init__(self, ...):
        ...

       for num in range(10):
           btn = ui.Button(...)

           async def acallback(interaction: discord.Interaction):
               # use the btn var that was previously defined
               btn.disabled = True
               ...

           btn.callback = acallback
           self.add_item(btn)

Though this defeats the whole point of subclassing the view and weird looking

[slate swan]

ohhhh. so wait. u can make functions inside for loops?

[naive briar]

I used to do that all the time

[slate swan]

o.o 🤯

[naive briar]

Or maybe you can use functools.partial to avoid doing this thing

Yeah, works too

[fierce haven]

Hello sory for noob question , how can i run an infinite loop when the bot starts

[naive briar]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/background_task.py#L13-L25

[unkempt canyon]

examples/background_task.py lines 13 to 25

async def setup_hook(self) -> None:
    # start the task to run in the background
    self.my_background_task.start()

async def on_ready(self):
    print(f'Logged in as {self.user} (ID: {self.user.id})')
    print('------')

@tasks.loop(seconds=60)  # task runs every 60 seconds
async def my_background_task(self):
    channel = self.get_channel(1234567)  # channel ID goes here
    self.counter += 1
    await channel.send(self.counter)```

[thin raft]

how tf you sent that so quickly

[naive briar]

I already has a discord.py github tab open, so I just use that

[fierce haven]

thanks alot!

[fierce haven]

how can i implement this to non class?

[naive briar]

from discord.ext import tasks

@tasks.loop(seconds=30)
async def atask():
     print("meow")

[fierce haven]

oh thansk!

[naive briar]

Then call the start meth somewhere in an async function

[fierce haven]

start the function?

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop.start

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop.start

start(*args, **kwargs)```
Starts the internal task in the event loop.

[fierce haven]

oh okay

can i use that in on_ready

[naive briar]

Not preferred, but you can

[fierce haven]

oh okay!

[slate swan]

i tried this and got it to work! ty 🙂

now i just need to make adjustments so i don't get rate limited... again xD

hi guys, i need my bot sends a message when my activity is playing a current game, how i can do this?👉🏼 👈🏼

[slate swan]

!d discord.ActivityType

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ActivityType

class discord.ActivityType```
Specifies the type of [`Activity`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Activity "discord.Activity"). This is used to check how to interpret the activity itself.

[vital glacier]

Is there a way to make it so if a user leaves a guild (while having the muted role) it'll give it back? So that they stay muted (even if they're tempmuted that it'll remove it after that time even if they left the guild)

Or if the bot restarts that it'll remove the role after a tempmute

[gusty flax]

Yes. U store their roles in a database. Then u can check every member when they join and give them the roles back

and u have a time

if its a tempmute

[vital glacier]

alright

so using db would be the move to go, i figured

[gusty flax]

ye. if u want it to persist, caching wouldnt work

besides a remote cache

[vital glacier]

how do u even cache

using redis or?

Because all I know is that you can cache using redis, but i've never used it and have no idea how it would work

[gusty flax]

u can cache locally with a dict or redis (i havent used redis so i dont know specifics)

there are many methods of caching

remote and local

[young dagger]

!e

base_mmr = 1300
num_wins = 14
num_losses = 6
mmr_delta = (num_wins - num_losses) * 25
return base_mmr + mmr_delta```

[unkempt canyon]

@young dagger :x: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 |   File "<string>", line 5
002 | SyntaxError: 'return' outside function

[vital glacier]

Is that a database aswell? Or something for a database?

Because rn im using psql and asyncpg

[gusty flax]

i havent used redis so idk. i just know its used for caching commonly

[vital glacier]

Yeah that's what I know too

but that's ab it

guess ill ask my friend for more info and how it works cus he does use redis

[gusty flax]

[young dagger]

!e

def calculate_mmr(base_mmr, num_wins, num_losses):
    mmr_delta = (num_wins - num_losses) * 25
    return base_mmr + mmr_delta

mmr = calculate_mmr(1300, 14, 6)
print(mmr)```

[unkempt canyon]

@young dagger :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

1500

[gusty flax]

? do u have a question?

[sick birch]

It's pretty much an in memory database

Very fast but limited in capability

Perfect for a caching layer

[vital glacier]

Ah good to know

Time to figure that out

[sick birch]

Good luck!

[vital glacier]

thanks mate

[young dagger]

We are currently using a Discord bot that allows people to set up their League account using elo from whatismymmr.com to balance the teams for custom games. However, the website has not been updated for the past 5 months, and we are looking for a new system to determine the elo for each player. How would you determine the elo for each player?

[gusty flax]

What is elo

[young dagger]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system

[gusty flax]

I dont think that is a bot specific question 😅

[slate swan]

There's a size limit on how large of an integer you can input

[tired pollen]

You can't slash commands does not support them you should use str type

[thin raft]

code?

[tired pollen]

Yep

[upbeat otter]

to save an api request, simply do

user = discord.Object(id=user_id)
await guild.unban(user, ..., ...)

[rare echo]

you’ll have to find another api then

[delicate flax]

Hi, when I start my bot on my laptop it works but when I start it on my raspberry pi to keep it online I have this message when I use a command: ```Traceback (most recent call last):

[slate swan]

What is a good ping_timeout and interval for the discord gateway because currently it disconnects after every 55.xxx seconds

[slate swan]

how long does it take you to respond to the command?

[delicate flax]

probably a few seconds

[shrewd apex]

defer it

[glad cradle]

hi

[shrewd apex]

sup

[slate swan]

you have to respond in less than 3 seconds

[slate swan]

anybody have any idea

if it takes longer you need to defer it

[glad cradle]

wdym?

[delicate flax]

I tried this but it didn't change anything

[sick birch]

Discord tells you in the initial HELLO payload

Its not something for you to decide

[slate swan]

Yeah i know but like

[slate swan]

show code

[sick birch]

It's somewhere around 40-45 seconds

[slate swan]

45

[sick birch]

You should use the interval in the hello payload

Instead of just picking some arbitrary one on your own

[slate swan]

what about timeout, just dont set timeout?

[delicate flax]

Can I send it to you in dm?

[slate swan]

why?

[slate swan]

after setting it to 45, after like 100sec it turns off, not the gateway connection but the bot itself

[delicate flax]

It's a bit long

[slate swan]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[slate swan]

also i only want the command itself

[delicate flax]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/gulasakiyu

[delicate flax]

Tell me if you need more

[slate swan]

and where is the defer part?

[delicate flax]

What defer part?

[slate swan]

you are supposed to defer the interaction

so you dont have to respond in 3 seconds

[delicate flax]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ebunifavan

I did that but it didn't work

[slate swan]

first of all its not indented into the function body

second thing you need to await it

[delicate flax]

I mean with correct indentation

I did

I mean

wait

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wotoruhuri

It was more like that

[slate swan]

how about the callback function

maybe its all about this one

and you need to defer it too

[delicate flax]

but can I send ephemeral message with this?

[slate swan]

yes

[delicate flax]

await ctx.followup.send(embed=m.embed, view=view, ephemeral=True)
Because when I do that it's a regular message not an ephemeral

[slate swan]

yes checked the docs and it can be ephemeral

!d discord.Interaction.followup

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.followup

Returns the follow up webhook for follow up interactions.

[slate swan]

!d discord.Webhook.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Webhook.send

await send(content=..., *, username=..., avatar_url=..., tts=False, ephemeral=False, file=..., files=..., embed=..., embeds=..., allowed_mentions=..., view=..., thread=..., ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message using the webhook.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object.

If the `embed` parameter is provided, it must be of type [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") and it must be a rich embed type. You cannot mix the `embed` parameter with the `embeds` parameter, which must be a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.11)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects to send.

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

[slate swan]

Naming an Interaction object "ctx" isn't the best idea if you want to avoid future confusion in my opinion.
ctx typically represents a commands.Context object, not an Interaction, but of course it's entirely your choice.

[delicate flax]

I agree lol

It was a command context before and I didn't rename the argument

🙃

[delicate flax]

so like that? await ctx.followup.send(embed=m.embed, view=view, ephemeral=True)

[slate swan]

looks right

[delicate flax]

That doesn't look like ephemeral 😭

[slate swan]

[delicate flax]

It's working I had to put it in the defer too

Thank you very much, I think it wasn't working because I wanted to do it too quickly so I deleted wrong things

But now it works!

[vital glacier]

Is it possible to add a group command into an already existing group command?

[slate swan]

Yes

[vital glacier]

How?

@slate swan

[slate swan]

bot.group(pass_context=True)
async def First(ctx):
    if ctx.invoked_subcommand is None:
        await bot.say('Invalid sub command passed...')

@First.group(pass_context=True)
async def Second(ctx):
    if ctx.invoked_subcommand is Second:
        await bot.say('Invalid sub command passed...')

@Second.command(pass_context=True)
async def Third(ctx):
    msg = 'Finally got success {0.author.mention}'.format(ctx.message)
    await bot.say(msg)
``` something Like this

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50548316/subcommands-in-python-bot

[vital glacier]

ok that worked, but it doesnt appear in my subcmds section in my help cmd embed

[shrewd apex]

custom help command? u will have to get the subcommand from the group

!d discord.ext.commands.Group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Group

class discord.ext.commands.Group(*args, **kwargs)```
A class that implements a grouping protocol for commands to be executed as subcommands.

This class is a subclass of [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") and thus all options valid in [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") are valid in here as well.

[shrewd apex]

the above has a commands property

[vital glacier]

wait ill show u what i mean

It shows my sub commands of my group command, right?
But I just made it so that ,role humans remove is a subcommand of ,role humans. Only this subcommand does not show in the subcommands of the role group subcommands

so im tryna make it so that it adds ,role humans remove to the subcommands of the Group Command: role embed

[shrewd apex]

dont think it's possible to have subcommand of a subcommand

[vital glacier]

It is tho apparently

[cloud dawn]

Unless that subcommand is also a group then yes.

[vital glacier]

yeah the ,role humans remove is a subcommand of ,role humans

[shrewd apex]

can u stack the group deco and the command deco?

[vital glacier]

and ,role humans is a group cmd of ,role

[cloud dawn]

No clue but I know whit prefix command you can have nested groups.

For masochists.

[shrewd apex]

lmfao

[glad cradle]

why you always come up with these shit ideas

btw FYI no, you can't stack them, it'll Raise a TypeError saying that the callback is already registered

[regal cove]

how do i make an embed that sends a picture of the interaction.user.id profile picture?

[smoky sinew]

why specifically ID? the id is just an integer

!d discord.User.display_avatar

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.display\_avatar

property display_avatar```
Returns the user’s display avatar.

For regular users this is just their default avatar or uploaded avatar.

New in version 2.0.

[regal cove]

thanks man

its fine i fixed it already and forgot to delete my question

[smoky sinew]

the display_avatar is probably closer to what you want since it returns default avatar too

[regal cove]

nah its fine man i fixed it already

[fresh ferry]

this is the error:

client.loop.create_task(schedule_videos_check()) <------- this is where the error is coming from.

does anyone know the fix

[smoky sinew]

https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/6706e1c8f23ac27c98cee4dd985c8120

as the error suggests maybe try starting the task in setup_hook instead

[lost lichen]

im trying to detect a user's rich presence and send them a message if they are playing a game between a range of time

currently have this ```py
async def game_detect():
game = None
for activity in disnake.Member.activities:
if isinstance(activity, disnake.Game):
game = activity
print(f'Game detected: {game}')
if game is None:
return print('not playing game')
# if user ID matches '---' and game is being played, send message to user
if game is not None and '---' in game.author.id:
await message.channel.send('Game detected')
return
# We have the return here because we don't want the command to go any further

but I cant figure out how to get the 'author' of the presence, to then send a message to them in DM

[slate swan]

instead of Disnake.Member.activities you need an actual Member object

[lost lichen]

yeah i realise that, i think i got it to work

hmm, unrelated issue

my token isnt valid but i just regnerated it

it has a different format than before

some previously generated tokens all started with NjExMzAz.. whearas now it starts with ODkwNDA..

did discord update their token generation format??

[fresh ferry]

anyone know why i cant gen a url for my bot in the dev portal /

[naive briar]

They always do 🤷

[lost lichen]

what do you mean?

can I just, not use my bot now?

im so confused its the right token in the right string format no trailing whitespace

[naive briar]

Discord changing token format is not a big deal

[lost lichen]

doesn't that break all new bots though

[naive briar]

No

[lost lichen]

ok, cool, then why do i get this error if the token is 'valid'?

[naive briar]

You entered it wrong
