discord-bots

[glad cradle]

Well you're just using what discord.py expose in the Interaction class, docs are cool

[fresh fern]

ohh

[glad cradle]

!d discord.Interaction.message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.message

The message that sent this interaction.

This is only available for InteractionType.component interactions.

[glad cradle]

note that this is only available if the Interaction comes from a component

[fresh fern]

oh so like if i click a btn so whatever the button gives....as an output

[glad cradle]

wdym

[fresh fern]

nothing nothing

thanks btw

[glad cradle]

when someone click a button your Bot receives a INTERACTION_CREATE event

this event payload contains a reference to the message which the button is part of

[fresh fern]

ohhh

one more thing......

[glad cradle]

hence there's this attribute

[fresh fern]

like if the user clicks the btn then i want to bot to edit that btn to the text

[glad cradle]

you want to edit the button text?

[fresh fern]

wait

like

I clicked the btn now i want the bot to edit that msg with btn and write hello over there

get it??

[glad cradle]

it's the same thing but instead of passing just the view here you'll pass a string (or an embed or whatever) too

!d discord.InteractionResponse.edit_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.edit\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by editing the original message of a component or modal interaction.

[fresh fern]

i did it but i doesnt remove the btn

it just adds the text to the msg

i want to remove the btn and add the text to the same msg

[glad cradle]

you need to pass view=self

[fresh fern]

async def on_click(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
    await interaction.response.edit_message(content="You clicked me!")
    await interaction.message.edit(view=self)```

im doing this

join my test server imma show u

[glad cradle]

you're not disabling the message also you can edit everything in the edit_message

[fresh fern]

im confused

im using edit_message only

[glad cradle]

no you're not, you're also using interaction.message.edit

[fresh fern]

ohhhh

await interaction.response.edit_messgage(view=self)```

like this???

[naive briar]

Are you

[glad cradle]

button.disabled = True
await interaction.response.edit_message(content="some text", view=self)

I thought I was clear 😔

btw I need to study bye

[fresh fern]

ok ok byee

i dont wannt to disable the btn i just want to remove it completely

[naive briar]

Then set view to none

[fresh fern]

but also want some text instead of it

either im dumb or im not able to explain my issue

ITS DONEEEEEEE I DID IT

[fresh fern]

help again....

from discord.ext import commands

here i want to access member (async def hbday(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, member: str = None):)

and use it in await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self, content=f"Happy Birthday {HERE}")

how do i do this

anyone??

[slate swan]

view.member = something
...

use view.member

!d discord.ButtonStyle

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ButtonStyle

class discord.ButtonStyle```
Represents the style of the button component.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

not with ui

from discord import ButtonStyle ?

[naive briar]

Do you know how imports works

[naive umbra]

so you meant no

[slate swan]

ButtonStyle is not in the ui

[naive umbra]

from discord.ui import Button, View
from discord import ButtonStyle

[fresh fern]

not working

[slate swan]

how did you implement it?

[fresh fern]

wait lemme try again

worked yay

thanks

[slate swan]

👍

[naive briar]

The button has no callback

And there's no on_button_click event

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/counter.py
check out this counter button implementation

[fresh ferry]

whats the update method of using action_row 's ??

!paste

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/tohojodase - this is the source im trying to get working but im getting errors when running it

[vale wing]

You just update view comps and msg.edit(view=view)

[fresh ferry]

view comps and msg.edit(view=view) ??

[vale wing]

Wait dpy doesn't have row init kwarg?

!d discord.ui.Button

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button

class discord.ui.Button(*, style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2>, label=None, disabled=False, custom_id=None, url=None, emoji=None, row=None)```
Represents a UI button.

New in version 2.0.

[vale wing]

Mm it does

Ah yes it's not an attribute

[vale wing]

Wait what are you trying to do?

[fresh ferry]

trying to put clickable buttons inside embeds

not below them

[naive briar]

What makes you think this is doable

[fresh ferry]

anything is possible

[tired pollen]

That's not possible

[naive briar]

I've always hated that sentence

[vale wing]

Yes except you need to use modified discord client and that's against ToS

Since relative position of embeds and buttons is regulated by client

[vale wing]

"Everything is possible"?

There are events that can occur with 0% probability which means they can't occur so that's invalid yeah

[slate swan]

can i use a message sent by a followup as a variable ?

[vale wing]

Yeah I think

[slate swan]

what do I need to import to use discord slash commands

[brazen raft]

from discord import app_commands

That is if you are using discord.py

[velvet tinsel]

It’s been ages since I’ve been here, lol

[slate swan]

is it possible to create a slash command with python requests?

yes

https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application-commands#making-a-global-command

the example here is using requests :)

[slate swan]

why do you need to use external module for slash commands?

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py

[slate swan]

Seems more like a #databases question.
Also don't use sqlite3 with Discord bots as it's a blocking library. Use an async alternative such as aiosqlite.

[fresh fern]

can anyone explain me defer and followup

please....

i dont get the docs

[silk fulcrum]

what can you not understand there

[fresh fern]

whats corutine

[silk fulcrum]

let's say your message is issuing a slash command
Then my reply is like interaction.response.send_message()

[silk fulcrum]

and this reply is a interaction.followup.send()

[fresh fern]

huh!?

[silk fulcrum]

I mean, you can google it

[fresh fern]

i googled and then came here

[silk fulcrum]

Let's see

[fresh fern]

i can understand from tutorials better but cant find one

[silk fulcrum]

A coroutine is a method that can be paused when we have a potentially long-running task and then resumed when that task is finished.

what can you not understand here?

[fresh fern]

ok so like we have a very long task.....

so we paused it and did something else and then resumed the big task

[vocal snow]

There are lots of guides for asyncio pinned in #async-and-concurrency if you want

[fresh fern]

oh ook ok

[vocal snow]

Although I'd recommend making sure you understand basic python concepts like functions, classes, etc first

[fresh fern]

i do understand thoose

whats followup

yea and what are the attributes of defer

i mean there are 2

epheral and thinking

what they do

[golden portal]

its not an attribute of defer, its a keyword argument of defer, thinking will showup a thinking message for your slash command response, which are edited after you send a followup

ephemeral keyword argument is to make your followup ephemeral

[fresh fern]

yea yea that key arg

[fresh fern]

add annotation to command parameter

[slate swan]

@nextcord.ui.StringSelect it should be string_select for a decorator

[slate swan]

also pro tip instead od doing this big match case

you can do this:

@nextcord.ui.string_select(..., options={"30 seconds": 30, "1 minute": 60, "2 hours": 7200, ...})

directly when defining options

change it for decorator not for Inheritance

[vale wing]

Select menu for channel SM is meh imho

Why not just parse duration

[flint heart]

How could I make this code:

@client.tree.command()
async def commandlist(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    """Lists all the available commands"""
    await interaction.response.send_message("/add [cardname] @[target] (Can only be used by High Staff members and Developers)\n/cardlist\n/inventory @[target]\n/commandlist")``` result in a code block ```(like this)``` instead of being plain text? I've already tried looking it up, but I can't find anything about it

Right now, it just looks like this:
/add [cardname] @[target] (Can only be used by High Staff members and Developers
/cardlist
/inventory @[target]
/commandlist

[slate swan]

like you do normally?

adding three backticks

[flint heart]

Oh!

[slate swan]

before and after

[flint heart]

I didn't think it would be that easy

lemme try that rq

It worked, thx!

[slate swan]

👍

[vital glacier]

anyone here experience with psql databases and on_voice_state_update events (before and after)

[unkempt mauve]

So I have added a sticky message in a channel. How do I make the bot check if there's a sticky message in the channel and deletes it after sending another sticky message?

[tired pollen]

You need to use db

[tired pollen]

If someone join a voice before is none also if someone leave then after is none
before, after both are discord.VoiceState object and you can get VoiceChannel object of after and before with channel attr

[smoky sinew]

don't ask to ask

[tired pollen]

!d discord.on_voice_state_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_voice\_state\_update

discord.on_voice_state_update(member, before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") changes their [`VoiceState`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceState "discord.VoiceState").

The following, but not limited to, examples illustrate when this event is called...

[unkempt mauve]

if message.channel.id == 1062309347239137320:
      if message.content.startswith(''):
        await asyncio.sleep(20)
        await message.channel.send('This is the channel where you can post images and other contents. Do not send any explicit content here. Doing so will result in a punishment.')
        return```
Its sending multiple messages

[vital glacier]

i'm working on voicemaster, but i need to do the event handler for it, no idea where to continue from where im from rn LOL

[tired pollen]

You need to save the pervious msg id then everytime a new message sended in sticky message channel check and delete pervious message then send new message

[unkempt mauve]

now the issue is multiple msgs

[smoky sinew]

you probably need to check if a user joined the "create" vc, then make a new channel and move them to it

[tired pollen]

Why are you saying if message start with "nothing"
What's the point

[unkempt mauve]

its for sticky msgs dude

[vital glacier]

i know, just dont know how that would work

and since my friend isnt responding

[tired pollen]

Okay what's your problem right now?

[unkempt mauve]

multiple msgs sending (spam)

[tired pollen]

Bot responding to its self

[unkempt mauve]

  return```

I have this line dude

[tired pollen]

Hmm

[unkempt mauve]

wait I dont

[tired pollen]

Check if before is none ( someone joined voice)
Then if it's true create voice channel and move the member to that voice channel

[vital glacier]

yeah i know that, but since I'm using psql for my database it's a bit tougher lmfao

that's the part im stuck with rn, is using the database info and making it work like that

[tired pollen]

All you need is to save the id of join to create voice

[vital glacier]

That's why I've got this rn

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after):
        data = await self.bot.db.fetch('SELECT voice FROM voicemaster WHERE guild_id = $1', member.guild.id)
        if data:

[smoky sinew]

what's not working

[tired pollen]

Okay that's looks okay

[vital glacier]

Alright that's good to know

But how would I make the vc then and move them to it with htis, cus im not 100% sure how that would go then

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.Guild.create_voice_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_voice\_channel

await create_voice_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, position=..., bitrate=..., user_limit=..., rtc_region=..., video_quality_mode=..., overwrites=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

This is similar to [`create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel "discord.Guild.create_text_channel") except makes a [`VoiceChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel "discord.VoiceChannel") instead.

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

[tired pollen]

Just add check and check if someone joined ( before is none) to that voice channel ( join to create)

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.Member.move_to

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.move\_to

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

Moves a member to a new voice channel (they must be connected first).

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

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.edit "discord.Member.edit").

Changed in version 1.1: Can now pass `None` to kick a member from voice.

[tired pollen]

Then also you need to save new voice channel where member moved to so when no one is in the voice channel you delete it

That's all ig

[vital glacier]

yeah ive been tryna figure it out but i cant get further

purely because of all the database work

[tired pollen]

Check If after is none ( someone leaved) then get new voice channel and with members attr you can get list of members that are in the voice check the len of it if 0 then delete voice

[flint heart]

Hey everyone! I'm trying to implement a /give command to my card bot, but I'm having some trouble. Could someone point me in the right direction? Here's my entire code: https://pastebin.com/P03CB0FG

[smoky sinew]

do you have a specific problem?

you should probably remove the with statement and use client.db_conn instead since you already have it created

also don't forget to call await super().close() in your MyClient.close

[keen cloak]

hello

[cinder tulip]

Why isnt this working?
just know that the .env is in the same directory and it has written in it "DISCORD_TOKEN = mybottoken"

[smoky sinew]

do you have your environment variables loaded

[cinder tulip]

wait

what you mean

[slate swan]

load_dotenv()

from dotenv module

!pypi python-dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

python-dotenv v1.0.0

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

[cinder tulip]

i should ye

[blazing flint]

is there any set way to find other files with the same parent directory as main.py using the os package

[cinder tulip]

import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

[slate swan]

do you call this method?

[cinder tulip]

from dotenv import load_dotenv
from dotenv import dotenv_values

got these too

[flint heart]

os.listdir()?

[slate swan]

parent_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) may work

and then all_files = os.listdir(parent_dir)

[cinder tulip]

oh, yeah

[slate swan]

and how you try to access the env varriable?

[cinder tulip]

just TOKEN = os.getenv("DISCORD_TOKEN")

[upbeat otter]

Seems like an internal issue
Try updating discord.py

[blazing flint]

do I use pip install --upgrade discord.py?

[cinder tulip]

update

it should be yeah upgrade

[slate swan]

or -U

[cinder tulip]

yeah i use -U

[slate swan]

dont import the main file in a cog

it's causing your bot to run twice

[upbeat otter]

💀wtf didn't even notice

Sarthy 🛐

[slate swan]

its supposed to be indexed

or add an ```py
if name == "main":

[cinder tulip]

like how

[slate swan]

nope

you can do it this way?

never seen this way

import os

os.environ["INDEXED"]
os.getenv("NOT-INDEXED")

[blazing flint]

I dont see what is wrong with that

I am just importing necessary functions

[slate swan]

? it runs your main file again

[blazing flint]

oh

what do you want me to do instead

[slate swan]

even if you import a single function, whole file gets interpreted

[slate swan]

just add the functions as botvars and use self.bot.function_name to acess them

[blazing flint]

?

[slate swan]

!botvar

[unkempt canyon]

Bot variables

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

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

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

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

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

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

[slate swan]

like bot.test is being used here, you can attach the function as a variable bound to the bot

and then access it using self.bot.<the var> inside the cog

or just move the functions to some other file and import them

[slate swan]

or this

[slate swan]

that was for down :p

can you ref me to your original issue?

[blazing flint]

mk

[slate swan]

[blazing flint]

I still dont quite get it can you give me some example related to my functions

[slate swan]

til then

[slate swan]

nvm all of that, just change your bot.run to ```py
if name == "main":
bot.run()

it should fix stuff

anyone here need help with anything? if so just ping me.

[blazing flint]

I just accidentally deleted pip

[quick gust]

What

[blazing flint]

how do I reinstall it

[tired pollen]

Nice

[blazing flint]

lol

how do I reinstall it tho

[slate swan]

reinstall python and select the pip option

[blazing flint]

how

[slate swan]

just run python installer

it should install it

run the python installer and select uninstall

then run t again and press install

[blazing flint]

how do I do that through shell

[cinder tulip]

@slate swan it was this one lol

[blazing flint]

I am using replit

[slate swan]

oh

then just make a new repl??

[languid jungle]

Please don't use ableist language in this server.

Also, you're being unnecessarily rude, please read our #code-of-conduct .

[cinder tulip]

stack overflow

[quick gust]

💀

[slate swan]

yes sir :(((

[slate swan]

🤣

[slate swan]

bro uninstalled pip on replit

its not my fault hes asking stupid questions when he doesnt know basic python why try programming something when u dont even know how to reinstall pip or create a new repl

people are wasting time on here instead of asking good legitimate questions

[sick birch]

There's no need to be rude about it

You have the choice to just not say anything :)

[slate swan]

if you belive question is "stupid" no need to answer it

[slate swan]

oh, make sure you did these

• the .env file should be in same dir as your main file
• the env should be in this format (usually)

TOKEN = "YOUR TOKEN"

• you should load the env using python-dotenv lib before trying to access it ```py
  import dotenv
  dotenv.load_dotenv()

os.environ["TOKEN"]
#or
os.getenv("TOKEN")

if all these still don't work try setting the env on system level instead of env file and try

[sick birch]

.load_dotenv() is important! Don't forget it

[slate swan]

#discord-bots is not the best place to ask these questions, but these questions do belong to the server

[cinder tulip]

alright ill be right back and let you know

[tired pollen]

He's trying to learn

[slate swan]

bro hes asking how to reinstsall pip on repl

wtv dbi

[slate swan]

just use poetry
replit's package management system is based on it

instead of pip install you'll be doing poetry add

[blazing flint]

k I reinstalled it through shell lol

[cinder tulip]

i corrected the .env format file and thats that.
but what am i supposed to run on the client.run()

[tired pollen]

Then just don't answer( you don't have to do it)

[slate swan]

you're supposed to pass os.getenv("DISCORD_TOKEN") into client.run()

[cinder tulip]

Uhhhhh

uhhhh

lets see if thatll work, i hope so

nooope

[slate swan]

can you try printing os.environ

and see if DISCORD_TOKEN is a key there

[cinder tulip]

uhhh where

well anywhere will be fine, let me see

[slate swan]

anywhere after load_dotenv()

yeah

[cinder tulip]

also if you'd like to know what error i got it was TypeError: expected token to be a str, received NoneType instead

[slate swan]

yeah it means the env file is not detected

[slate swan]

do you have your project opened as folder in vs code?

[cinder tulip]

aw man, it's there

[slate swan]

how did you run the file btw?

[cinder tulip]

on main.py i just clicked on vscode's run button

[slate swan]

if you used that play button it might be the reason

[cinder tulip]

[slate swan]

yeah don't, use the terminal ```
python main.py

[cinder tulip]

alright then let's try like that

[slate swan]

or whatever your python command is binded to (it could also be py or python3)

[cinder tulip]

it still gave me the error xd

do i on the vscode's terminal?

[slate swan]

yeah

[cinder tulip]

that's what i did

[slate swan]

are you in the project's dir inside the vsc terminal

[blazing flint]

poetry add still does not work for installing discord

[slate swan]

the package is called discord.py not discord

[cinder tulip]

yes

[slate swan]

weird error

[cinder tulip]

bro always me

[blazing flint]

An error occurred during configuration: option use-feature: invalid choice: 'content-addressable-pool' (choose from '2020-resolver', 'fast-deps', 'truststore')

[cinder tulip]

How am i gonna hide my bot's token on my github :waaa:

[slate swan]

you could use a system environment variable but that will be like loaded in all your projects automatically

won't be exposed anywhere tho

[smoky sinew]

.gitignore

[cinder tulip]

I know man but i can't use a .env file

[smoky sinew]

why not

[cinder tulip]

cause it always gives an error

[smoky sinew]

what does your full code look like

[cinder tulip]

600+ lines

[slate swan]

how does it looks like inside .env maybe your syntax is wrong

[smoky sinew]

just paste it in https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[slate swan]

@cinder tulip can you show the .env file structure with the token hidden ofc

remember to hide actual token

[cinder tulip]

man i almost sent my token MAAN

results from poetry add

and the other error is from pip install discord.py

[cinder tulip]

just like this

[slate swan]

did you delete some files from your repl?

[blazing flint]

idk

[slate swan]

try removing the space between =

[slate swan]

just create a new repl then

[cinder tulip]

ok let's see

[blazing flint]

can I duplicate this one

[slate swan]

did you save the file tho

[cinder tulip]

THERE'S NO WAY

[slate swan]

it will copy same stuff including configs, you will get the same issue

[blazing flint]

ima fork it

[cinder tulip]

BY REMOVING THE SPACES IT WORKED

[slate swan]

no dont

[slate swan]

Gg

[blazing flint]

oh

[slate swan]

it works with spaces for me on linux but not on windows lol

[blazing flint]

I forked it btw and now pip is not installed again lol

[cinder tulip]

I wanna thank you all for helping me with this issue

[blazing flint]

I just making a new replit

I migrated to a new repl and changed the end to py if __name__ == "__main__": client.run(token) and it still gets the error

do I still need to try botvars

@slate swan

[slate swan]

whats the new error

[blazing flint]

!hastebin

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/iyopitejaz

?

[smoky sinew]

what's your code

[slate swan]

@app_commands.describe(name="roles",description='The admin role IDs.')

not how describe works

[blazing flint]

oh yeah

[slate swan]

!d discord.app_commands.describe

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.describe

@discord.app_commands.describe(**parameters)```
Describes the given parameters by their name using the key of the keyword argument as the name.

Example:

```py
@app_commands.command(description='Bans a member')
@app_commands.describe(member='the member to ban')
async def ban(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member):
    await interaction.response.send_message(f'Banned {member}')
```  Alternatively, you can describe parameters using Google, Sphinx, or Numpy style docstrings...

[blazing flint]

lol

I had that from so long ago

how did I miss that

I had it that way cuz someone told me to

lol no way that was the problem

I promise I knew that

@app_commands.describe(member = "The user to mute", reason = "The reason for the mute.")
async def mute(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member, reason: str):
  if admin_roles:
    for role in interaction.user.roles:

        if member.guild_permissions.administrator:
          await interaction.response.send_message("You cannot mute an administrator.", ephemeral=True)
          return
        guild = interaction.guild
        muteRole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Muted")

        await interaction.response.send_message("Mute was successfull", ephemeral=True)
        if muteRole == None:
          muteRole = await guild.create_role(name="Muted")
          await interaction.user.send("No Muted role was found. One was created, and you may edit it to your liking.")

        for channel in guild.channels:
          await channel.set_permissions(muteRole, speak=False, send_messages=False, read_message_history=True, read_messages=True)
        await member.add_roles(muteRole, reason=reason)
        await member.send(f"You were muted by {interaction.user}.\n Reason: {reason}")
        if confirm_channel:
          await client.get_channel(int(confirm_channel)).send(f"**{interaction.user}** muted **{member}**. \n Reason: **{reason}**")
        return
    await interaction.response.send_message("You are not allowed to use this command.", ephemeral=True)
        
  else:
    await interaction.response.send_message("Admin roles have not been set. Please set atleast one before using any moderation commands.", ephemeral=True)
    print("Moderation command was attempted before admin roles were set.")```

I have a separate question

    "1111111111": {
        "admin_roles": [],
        "confirm_roles": [],
        "confirm_channel": ""
    },
    "2222222222": {

    },
    "1081731158099894293": {
        "admin_roles": [],
        "confirm_roles": [],
        "confirm_channel": ""
    }
}``` I have a json for storing server data that looks like this

I also have a function for getting the whole batch of data from one section

using that function, how would I be able to get one specific property such as "confirm_channel"

@slate swan

[smoky sinew]

someone create a discord.py bingo with "replit" and "json storage" on it

[smoky sinew]

data["1081731158099894293"]["confirm_channel"]?

[blazing flint]

ok

YES IT WORKS

also

is there a way to ask for an input type that is a channel

and one that is a role

[smoky sinew]

with slash commands?

[blazing flint]

ye

[slate swan]

annotate parameter as Role

[smoky sinew]

just annotate the argument as discord.TextChannel or discord.Role

[slate swan]

or whatever you want

[blazing flint]

ok

how can I make it so you can input multiple roles

like as many as you want separated by commas

[smoky sinew]

i dont think you can

[blazing flint]

oh ok

[smoky sinew]

maybe use a roleselect instead

[blazing flint]

how does that work

[smoky sinew]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html?highlight=roleselect#discord.ui.RoleSelect

like any other select menu

you just make a view class and put the role select decorator inside

[blazing flint]

ok

I think for now I will keep it as a string where you just enter the roles separated by commas

How can I subtract the first three and last two characters from a variable

[smoky sinew]

string splicing

hold on i wonder if there's a tag

!splicing

[unkempt canyon]

You are not allowed to use that command here. Please use the #bot-commands channel instead.

[smoky sinew]

it would be [3:][:-2]

[unkempt canyon]

Sequence slicing

Slicing is a way of accessing a part of a sequence by specifying a start, stop, and step. As with normal indexing, negative numbers can be used to count backwards.

Examples

>>> letters = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g']
>>> letters[2:]  # from element 2 to the end
['c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g']
>>> letters[:4]  # up to element 4
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
>>> letters[3:5]  # elements 3 and 4 -- the right bound is not included
['d', 'e']
>>> letters[2:-1:2]  # Every other element between 2 and the last
['c', 'e']
>>> letters[::-1]  # The whole list in reverse
['g', 'f', 'e', 'd', 'c', 'b', 'a']
>>> words = "Hello world!"
>>> words[2:7]  # Strings are also sequences
"llo w"

[blazing flint]

how would I be able to do that to the "role" value in admin_roles = [int(role.strip()) for role in roles.split(',')]

[smoky sinew]

oh slicing not splicing

[slate swan]

yep slicing

[smoky sinew]

i don't know why i thought it was named splicing

[blazing flint]

@smoky sinew ?

[smoky sinew]

wdym

[blazing flint]

the "role" value has two unnecesary charaters at the start and end

[smoky sinew]

why

[blazing flint]

cuz I changed it to mentioning the role instead of inputting the role id

[smoky sinew]

why not just use role select though

just put role.strip()[3:][:-1]

are you sure it's 2 characters at the end

[blazing flint]

one

[smoky sinew]

ok

[blazing flint]

k I got it working

also I just found you can do role.strip()[3:-1]

and it does the same thing

[smoky sinew]

yeah

[blazing flint]

ty for your help

[flint heart]

How might I go about creating a /give [card name] @[target] command for my bot? Here's the current code: https://pastebin.com/dtQn1C4p

Nothing I've tried has worked

I'm using aiosqlite to manage the db

[smoky sinew]

did you see what i sent above?

i already responded

[flint heart]

Oh

Sorry, I didnt see it

[flint heart]

Wdym?

[smoky sinew]

remove all the async with parts in your code and reuse client.db_conn instead

[flint heart]

Ok

[cloud dawn]

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

[flint heart]

How might I go about making the /pack commands able to put duplicates in the user's inventory? I got it working for /add, but it won't work for /pack1, /pack2, or /pack3.

Pls Help

[velvet tinsel]

Using a phone is cursed, Jesus fuck. I’ll try to read this

[velvet tinsel]

Just wondering, did you copy and paste this code? Because that’s an awfully suspicious amount of comments.

Not that it’s anything bad, but you should understand the code before you paste it (I totally do that every time)

[velvet tinsel]

Please elaborate, my brain isn’t braining. Too much code, not enough explanation. I can read it, but I can’t read it, if you get what I mean.

[flint heart]

Ik what you mean

So basically

/pack1 gives a user one random card, /pack2 gives 3, and /pack3 gives 5

/add directly adds a card to a user's inventory (Can only be done by an admin ofc)

I was able to get /add to allow for duplicates

So for example, If I were to do "/add jhett @flint heart" twice, when i did /inventory, both would be there

[white citrus]

How to get bot id in application command

[flint heart]

However, let's say I do /pack2 and get Jhett, Paris, and Radiant

[velvet tinsel]

It should be in the discord dev portal. Take a closer look. I may be mistaken it’s been a while since I’ve used it

[light flower]

I know my code. You can help me?

[flint heart]

If I do it again, lets say I get Pup, Jhett, and Jant

If I did /inventory, there would only be Jhett, Paris, Radiant, Pup, and Jant

Even though there should be 2 jhetts

[white citrus]

I mean the bot id at the server lol

[velvet tinsel]

Fuck

[flint heart]

The guild id?

[white citrus]

The Bot is! Like the User id

[flint heart]

Ohhh

Right click on the bot

[velvet tinsel]

Ok so you want to allow duplicates, correct?

[flint heart]

Then copy ID at the bottom

[white citrus]

Haha lol

[flint heart]

Yea

[flint heart]

Inside of the discord server it's in

[velvet tinsel]

You need developer mode activated too

[white citrus]

I want to get in in the command 🤦‍♂️

[flint heart]

Oh yea

[flint heart]

So like /id?

Then it tells the user its ID?

[white citrus]

You are lost?

[velvet tinsel]

My brain has deteriorated extremely terribly. You want to get the bot ID through a command, correct?

[velvet tinsel]

I’ll try.

[white citrus]

Yes

[flint heart]

That's exactly what I just said...

try this:

Ohhhhh

The ID of the user?

[velvet tinsel]

Holy shit I HATE USING A PHONE

[white citrus]

Not the user id uff

[smoky sinew]

@bot.tree.command()
async def id(interaction: discord.Interaction) -> None:
    await interaction.response.send_message(bot.user.id)

[velvet tinsel]

Just pass the argument as the bot and it should still work

[white citrus]

For noobs client id that is what i want lol

[velvet tinsel]

I really need to re educate myself with this

[flint heart]

id = "[id of your bot]"
@client.tree.command()
async def id_finder(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message(f"My ID is {id}")```

[velvet tinsel]

Yeah sorry I can’t do this with a phone 😦

I can’t make sense of the code

[white citrus]

Sorry but u are Completely lost

Learning basics

[white citrus]

Yeah ik but now in a cog and slash command

[flint heart]

Dawg nobody here gets what you're asking for

[white citrus]

I thought it is interaction.client.id but it isnt @velvet tinsel

[smoky sinew]

no..

what if the bot id changes

[flint heart]

True, true

[velvet tinsel]

Wait, is discord.py being continued?

[smoky sinew]

because interaction.client is a Client object, not a User object

[white citrus]

Nextcord

[smoky sinew]

you probably meant interaction.client.application_id @white citrus

[white citrus]

So but u know what i mean?

[smoky sinew]

yes, for a while now

[white citrus]

Ahh thanks i try

[velvet tinsel]

Oh. I’ve used those libs but it’s been months since I’ve used it. I used to be of help, but unfortunately, I’ve kind of forgotten some prime basics. I’ll just go and re-learn this stuff.

[proven venture]

Got a quick question guys. So basically I wrote a code that checks for changes on a website and if it changes the bot sends a dm to a person. But how can I stop this loop with another slash command and so the loop is always up to date with the stop slash command. Basically i wanna stop a loop with a command but I don’t know how. Btw I am using interactions obv

[glad cradle]

what are you using to run that loop? @tasks.loop?

[proven venture]

No, I use while

[proven venture]

Since I only loop the Selenium code and not the task

[glad cradle]

mh? a bare while loop would block your code so you're running it in some way, are you using an asyncio task?

[proven venture]

Yes asyncio

[glad cradle]

then you can cancel the task if you somehow have access to the task object

this won't be difficult, you just need a dict with ids as keys and tasks as values

[proven venture]

Mhmmmmm will try tomorrow I was just curious since the asyncio tasks just loops without actually checking for another command

But I think I know how to solve it will check tomorrow

Thx for your help bro ❤️

[glad cradle]

you're welcome

I don't know whether or not to put this in here but I will, I'm using a webhook to connect multiple roblox profiles to a server for example (If they join a game their instanceID gets sent to my server) but it's having strange errors which say "Error retrieving JoinInstanceID for Roblox ID: 76773338" I'll leave the code below help me if you can.

import json

profiles = [76773338]

roblox_api_endpoint = "https://api.roblox.com/users/{}/currently-playing"

# WEBHOOK HERE
discord_webhook_url = "MY WEBHOOK"

for profile_id in profiles:
    response = requests.get(roblox_api_endpoint.format(profile_id))
    if response.status_code == 200:
        join_instance_id = response.json()["JoinInstanceID"]
    else:
        print("Error retrieving JoinInstanceID for profile ID: {}".format(profile_id))
        continue

    payload = {
        "username": "Roblox Profiles",
        "content": "JoinInstanceID for profile ID {}: {}".format(profile_id, join_instance_id)
    }

    response = requests.post(discord_webhook_url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"})
    if response.status_code != 204:
        print("Error sending webhook for profile ID: {}".format(profile_id))```

[slate swan]

what does this bot do?

[sick birch]

Remove the if/else that checks for the status code and use response.raise_for_status() to get a better error message

[flint heart]

I'm back again! This time, I'm trying to add a money system, and was wondering what the best approach would be. Rn, I'm thinking the only two choices would to make a new db, or add a section to my current db. Note that I'm new to managing databases, so preferably whichever would be easier. Not sure if it means anything, but the money would be used to buy packs (/pack1, /pack2, and /pack3). Here's my code: https://pastebin.com/Awgqhthp

And sorry for the super inconsistent commenting, I've been trying to do better with them

[smoky sinew]

just add a new table

that's what tables are for

why do you do self.db_conn = ... if you don't use it anyways @flint heart

[flint heart]

How would I properly implement it?

I was recommended I use it, but I don't remember from where

I was reccomended it from someone in The Coding Den discord server (I think)

[smoky sinew]

just remove all the with statements and replace db_conn with client.db_conn

[flint heart]

Ok

[frosty parrot]

hey I'm using openai api in my bot . Is it free to use ?

[flint heart]

Yea

But there's a limit to how many queries you can have

Not sure the exact amount

[frosty parrot]

like ?

oh k

I asked the bot what's your name and then he replied myname is John

[frosty parrot]

I just want to make a chatbot just random talks

[flint heart]

Im looking up how many you can have rn

[frosty parrot]

ok thanks

[flint heart]

Yea I can't find it

[frosty parrot]

ok np

can I use frequently for now ?

Hello, i'm working on the Flask framework to build an http discord bot, everything working fine until i needed to upload file. Can someone explains me (or send me a guide) how to return a multipart form with Flask. Until now, I only returned json / dict to each interaction. I read the discord documentation but I didn't find it useful

[naive briar]

#web-development

[lusty tulip]

thank you !

[hushed galleon]

the #965291516031549500 thread would probably be more relevant
oh if its only about returning a multipart response then web dev is fine

u need to make an api token iirc u have like 18$ in ur account once u create it or something

[light violet]

ok ok

[turbid canopy]

today i bought a new chair and im so happy 😄

[drifting arrow]

How do I make my discordbot automatically reconnect to any buttons/interactions?
For example, in this image, if my bot goes offline, lets say due to internet outage or coz my cat eats my internet box, and I bring my bot online. Currently it doesnt recognize those buttons.

[drifting arrow]

Today*
I*
I'm*

[hushed galleon]

yup, a bot token to make the requests would be sufficient and then it would go through interactions endpoint / gateway as usual

[hushed galleon]

in discord.py that would be known as a persistent view, and to simply describe it you use Client.add_view() with a correctly configured View instance to have dpy recognize interactions for it
example: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/persistent.py

[turbid canopy]

@hushed galleon i sent you the friend request

please help

im using mongodb to store the data

my command worked earlier but now i was shifting to slash command and got this error

[sick birch]

Discord doesn't have support for guild selection

[fresh fern]

huh??

[sick birch]

It's not a valid parameter type

[fresh fern]

but earlier it worked

[sick birch]

Yeah works fine for prefix commands, since they're more flexible

[fresh fern]

oh so what should i do now

[sick birch]

You will have to go for a workaround like having the user enter in the guild ID

[fresh fern]

i didnt get what u just said

[sick birch]

You'd just accept an int which will be the guild ID

[fresh fern]

ohhhh

what if the user enters something else

[karmic nimbus]

reply = f'this user is afk'
    if not message.author.bot:
        for user in message.mentions:
            if user.id == my_id:
                await message.channel.send(reply, reference=message)

how can i add cooldown for the reply?

[fresh fern]

like 123

[sick birch]

You will have to parse that yourself

[fresh fern]

howw!!??

Logs = await ctx.guild.audit_logs(limit=limit).flatten()

How do I flatten this because .flatten() isn’t working

[naive briar]

!d discord.Guild.audit_logs

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.audit\_logs

async for ... in audit_logs(*, limit=100, before=..., after=..., oldest_first=..., user=..., action=...)```
Returns an [asynchronous iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator "(in Python v3.11)") that enables receiving the guild’s audit logs.

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

Examples

Getting the first 100 entries:

```py
async for entry in guild.audit_logs(limit=100):
    print(f'{entry.user} did {entry.action} to {entry.target}')
```...

[naive briar]

Read the docs

[shrewd apex]

u have to unpack it asynchronously

[turbid canopy]

bc i like you

[velvet tinsel]

In a weird way, or…

[fresh fern]

how to see the number of all member in the servers in which the bot is

anyone please tell this

im really confused

[shrewd kraken]

!d discord.Client.guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.guilds

property guilds```
The guilds that the connected client is a member of.

[shrewd kraken]

it returns a list, so you can just run len(bot.guilds)

[slate swan]

Probally this

async def membercount(ctx):
    await ctx.send(len(guild.member_count))```

[glad cradle]

no

guild isn't even defined in your example

[glad cradle]

he asked for this

[fresh fern]

what do i use

@glad cradle and @slate swan

[slate swan]

use from snipy

[fresh fern]

lets see

how

like client.guilds

what after that'

[glad cradle]

it's just an attribute, you can access it everywhere you have Bot object access

[glad cradle]

it's just that

[fresh fern]

client.guilds returns the no. of guilds im in

OHHHH

GOT IT

[glad cradle]

technically it's a property

[glad cradle]

wdym? why should the Bot be banned

[slate swan]

well thats the point of the discord bot to create commands that everyone can use

depends what the command is supposed to do

its supposed to send dms to all server members?

well if the discord server is 10 members then its fine but for bigger servers it will be spamming and could get you banned yes

[fresh fern]

hey snipy

[gloomy bramble]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import mysql.connector

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

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "-", intents = intents)

    print("-------------------------------------")

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
    print("Test command received")
    await ctx.send('Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3...')
    print("Test command received")

bot.run("Troll")```

Guys why this not working :(

[glad cradle]

hey

[fresh fern]

im confused

still

about client.guilds

[glad cradle]

are you getting an error?

[fresh fern]

it returns a BIGGGGGGGG list

[gloomy bramble]

no errors at all. the command outright ain't responding when i use in server

[glad cradle]

yeah you need to call len() on it

[fresh fern]

but i need the sum of number of members in each server

[glad cradle]

then it's

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.users

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.users

property users```
Returns a list of all the users the bot can see.

[fresh fern]

ohhh

[gloomy bramble]

btw is there anything wrong with my code

[fresh fern]

client.user

[glad cradle]

do you have an on_message event somewhere?

[gloomy bramble]

nope

[fresh fern]

users*

[glad cradle]

ah maybe you don't have the message_content intent enabled

[gloomy bramble]

wait

[glad cradle]

you need to activate it both on your code and on the discord developer portal

[gloomy bramble]

message content intent was always enabled

[fresh fern]

THANKS A LOT SNIPY

[glad cradle]

ok but discord.Intents.default() classmethod have message_content set to False

[glad cradle]

you're welcome

[glad cradle]

so you need to do

intents.message_content = True

[gloomy bramble]

thanks yo

[keen lark]

TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents' how can I fix this

[naive briar]

Read the error, it's already telling you what's the problem

!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.

Hi, I'm very much a noob at coding in general, but I am learning. What I am doing now is trying to make a custom bot for my 2 discord servers. I want the bot to send a different embed depending on what server is joined. The embed will mention different channels in the respective servers. This is the code I have so far:

from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.all()

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="h", intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"Logged in as {bot.user} (ID: {bot.user.id})")
    print("-------------")

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    if member.guild.id == "1051109766002376805":
        austin_channel = bot.get_channel(1051112385869521048)
        austin_welcome_embed = discord.Embed(title="Welcome!" , description="![s_](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1054137106945036320.webp?size=128 "s_") Read the rules\n ![s_](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1054137106945036320.webp?size=128 "s_") Grab some roles\n ![s_](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1054137106945036320.webp?size=128 "s_") Boost our server\n ![s_](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1054137106945036320.webp?size=128 "s_") Have fun!", color=0xCCCCCC )

        print(f"{member.name} has joined the Austin server.")
        await austin_channel.send(f"<@&1084444679921213520> {member.mention}")
        await austin_channel.send(embed=austin_welcome_embed)
    elif member.guild.id == "1052302588688748544":
        central_channel = bot.get_channel(1052307098303741952)
        central_welcome_embed = discord.Embed(title="Welcome", description=f"This is the official staffing server for **Malevolent** and **Sundown**, please find the respective categories of both servers to either appeal or apply for different positions within the servers. If you need any help, ping the <@&1052302821220942015> role")

        await central_channel.send(f"{member.mention}")
        await central_channel.send(embed=central_welcome_embed)

bot.run("token will go here lol")```

The problem is that I don't get any messages sent at all - even the print output in the terminal. Any ideas? All help will be greatly appreciate ![sd_gudeUwu](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1022109387508166797.webp?size=128 "sd_gudeUwu")

hey all, I want to make a sound dispatch command somewhat similar to Airhorn Solutions... This is what I made but I am having an error

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'VoiceChannel' object has no attribute 'play'

Code:

@discord.slash_command(name='quack', description = 'Quack, Quack, Quack!')
    async def quack(self, ctx):
        vc = ctx.author.voice.channel
        if vc == None:
            ctx.respond("You must be connected to a voice channel!")
        else:
            vc.connect()
            vc.play(discord.File('duck-quacking-37392.mp3'))

where am I going wrong?

[glad cradle]

1. the connect method of a VoiceChannel object is a coroutine, this mean that you need to await it

2. you need to store the VoiceClient returned by the VoiceChannel.connect method; later you'll use that VoiceClient object to call the play method

3. the VoiceClient.play method doesn't accept a discord.File object, you need to pass a source

!d discord.VoiceClient.play

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceClient.play

play(source, *, after=None)```
Plays an [`AudioSource`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.AudioSource "discord.AudioSource").

The finalizer, `after` is called after the source has been exhausted or an error occurred.

If an error happens while the audio player is running, the exception is caught and the audio player is then stopped. If no after callback is passed, any caught exception will be logged using the library logger.

Changed in version 2.0: Instead of writing to `sys.stderr`, the library’s logger is used.

[glad cradle]

ctx.respond needs to be awaited as well

i am working on a discord economy bot. so like, how do i create an inventory function?

imo there are two ways to go about it. one is creating a separate table for every user (very tedious for me to categorise or something idek)

the second option idk if there is a second option honestly

[quick gust]

you can make a single 'users' table that can store the IDs of every user and the items they have

oh and what database are you using

[glad cradle]

using a relational database every user could have associated to their ID a profile where they have an inventory and other things, you can imagine the inventory as a list that contains the objects that a user has

[glad cradle]

sorry I hadn't see this before

[gloomy bramble]

ok

[shrewd apex]

bank.inventory is syntax for selecting a field from a table like table.field whats ur intent here

make a user table and have an inventory column

pgsql has a jsonb data type

perfect for an inventory

inventory JSONB,
money INT DEFAULT 0,
);

an example u can expand fields however u want

[zealous jay]

Is there a way to search messages?

Like with the search function that users have

[undone badge]

I can't figure out how to check if specified channel is in the same server as the command I used.

Like here's code and I want it to deny if channel id is from another server
async def setlogchannel(self, context: Context, channel_id): server_id = context.guild.id try: await self.bot.fetch_channel(channel_id) id = await db_manager.add_log_channel(channel_id, server_id) embed = discord.Embed(description=f"Канал для истории сообщений установлен на <#{id}>", color=0x9C84EF) await context.send(embed=embed) except: embed = discord.Embed(description=f"Такого канала не существует или у меня нет доступа к каналу.", color=0x9C84EF) await context.send(embed=embed)

[sacred vigil]

hey! I'm having issues trying to do pip install discord.py
(Mac Version 10.13.6)

Says bash: pip: command not found

[zealous jay]

does using py works?

[sacred vigil]

you mean the files etc?

[zealous jay]

just using py on the console

it should open python

because if that works you can use py -m pip install discord.py

[sacred vigil]

looks like it doesn't work..

[zealous jay]

did you install python?

[sacred vigil]

yes

[zealous jay]

maybe python -m pip install discord.py

idk

[sacred vigil]

ill try to reinstall python if it doesn't work

[zealous jay]

👍

[sacred vigil]

looks like that worked

[zealous jay]

great

[undone badge]

Toto do you know asnwer for my question?

[slate swan]

need someone to make a fortniite discord bot w me i have no experience with post requests and stuff

[young dagger]

!e

    enemy_points = [1969, 1318, 1971, 1860, 2044, 2381, 1498, 3421, 1146, 1690, 2186, 1368, 1819, 1515, 2270, 2001, 1211]
    med = sum(enemy_points) / len(enemy_points)
    print(round(med))```

[unkempt canyon]

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

[quick gust]

Please use #bot-commands if it's not related to a conversation

[cloud dawn]

[upbeat otter]

You could use Guild.get_channel or Guild.fetch_channel

[slate swan]

is it better to list the event listener once and have multiple guard clauses for functions or to have an event listener for each function?

[fallow granite]

someone can help me ? Contact me privately

[thin raft]

can you explain again

[slate swan]

so is it better to repeat each listener for the function. lets say..

async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after)
if after.channel is not None and "Variable" is in after.channel.name:
  #Do Something
async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after)
if after.channel is not None and "Different Variable" is in after.channel.name:
  #Do Something Else

or would it be better to do something like..

async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after)
if after.channel is not None and "Variable" is in after.channel.name:
        return False
  #Do Something
  return True
elif "Different Variable" is in after.channel.name:
        return False
  #Do Something Else
  return True

[thin raft]

depends

are those in the same class?

[slate swan]

the top one is not. i have them in a different file for each for dev testing.

[thin raft]

if they're in the same file it is useless

the top one will get overwritten

[slate swan]

overwritten?

ohhh cause its in chronological order

i got a weird warning. since i left it running for a couple days and wasn't sure if its because of this being in different files or something else
WARNING - discord.gateway : Can't keep up, shard ID None websocket is 25.7s behind.

so that's why i was questioning optimizations

It may happen when using synchronous modules

[slate swan]

so convert synchronous to asynchronous ?

Yes just use async ones for example
dont use requests
use aiohttp instead

[slate swan]

ohhhh ok. so some of the packages could be running synchronous modules as well....

[fiery salmon]

Hi, is there a way to raise an exception without printing it to console?
I have an error handler, but my errors are getting printed before error handler is called

[velvet tinsel]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66374121/discord-py-error-handling-with-on-command-error check this out!

or just an example

[fiery salmon]

yes, this is pretty much how i did it.

but it is still printing error to console

[velvet tinsel]

show me the code

[smoky sinew]

we cannot help with boost bots here

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[fiery salmon]

issue isnt with error handler
like i said, exception is getting printed before going to error handler. so clearly it's not looking into the error handler first before printing
error handler still works as expected though.

i am using async def on_application_command_error(self, interaction:Interaction, error): instead though

[velvet tinsel]

oh

[fiery salmon]

because on_command_error wasn't working

[velvet tinsel]

well... try @example.error and see if it works instead

[fiery salmon]

how do u mean

one of my commands is

@nextcord.slash_command()
@cooldowns.cooldown(1, 5400, bucket=cooldowns.SlashBucket.author)
async def work(self, interaction:Interaction):

[velvet tinsel]

@example.error
async def example_error(self, ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, commands.WhateverYouWant):
    await ctx.send("Error!")

[velvet tinsel]

something like this I suspect

[blazing flint]

What’s the problem

[fiery salmon]

o i have my error handler as

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_application_command_error(self, interaction:Interaction, error):
    error = getattr(error, 'original', error)

    elif isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown) or isinstance(error, CallableOnCooldown):
        Stuff1()
    elif isinstance(error, commands.CheckFailure):
        Stuff2()
    elif isinstance(error, commands.BadArgument):
        Stufff3()

[velvet tinsel]

oh

[blazing flint]

Are you getting errors currently?

[fiery salmon]

ok let's back up

error is not with handler

[velvet tinsel]

well, I'm very good at taking the worst and longest way possible, so I say...

make one for every single thing 💀

[blazing flint]

Ok

Well

[slate swan]

Where is the if i only see elif s

[fiery salmon]

im trying to not have the exceptions get printed to console

[blazing flint]

Remove the error handler

Are you getting any trace back errors

[fiery salmon]

once again, zero errors.
the code edited

[velvet tinsel]

ok ye I'll just 🚪 🚶‍♂️

[blazing flint]

Can I know what is happening

So I can try to help

[slate swan]

The error is printed cause it wasnt caught in the handler i suppose

[fiery salmon]

no, again, error is printed before looking at error handler

[slate swan]

Hm

[blazing flint]

Can you send me the trace back

[fiery salmon]

let me get example

[fiery salmon]

Ignoring exception in command <nextcord.application_command.SlashApplicationCommand object at 0x7f1ea79257f0>:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/ubuntu/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/nextcord/application_command.py", line 863, in invoke_callback_with_hooks

  File "/home/ubuntu/economy-bot/cogs/bj.py", line 151, in player_turn
    raise Exception("timeoutError")
Exception: timeoutError

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

nextcord.errors.ApplicationInvokeError: Command raised an exception: Exception: timeoutError
START OF ERROR HANDLER

[blazing flint]

So I know what the problem is

[fiery salmon]

that's one

[slate swan]

You added some prints i belive so you know that

[fiery salmon]

wot

[blazing flint]

Delete the error handler

They can eat up the trace back space

[fiery salmon]

but deleting error handler will 100% guarantee a print to the console

[blazing flint]

And then send the full trace back

[cinder tulip]

Why isn't icon_url not working

[slate swan]

Add another if to check for Exception

In error handler

And see if it invokes

[blazing flint]

Don’t send screenshots

send code formatted messages along with the error

[slate swan]

Cause add_field does not accept any icons

!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.

[fiery salmon]

let's do this one instead:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

nextcord.errors.ApplicationInvokeError: Command raised an exception: CallableOnCooldown: This function is being rate-limited. Please try again in 5398.027218 seconds.

[blazing flint]

Mmmk

That is the problem

You are being rare limited by discord because you are sending way too many requests

[slate swan]

N

What no

[blazing flint]

Wait nvm

[slate swan]

Its cause there is an cooldown on a command

[fiery salmon]

correct

[blazing flint]

Remove the cooldown

[cinder tulip]

Oh I just realized, this is the solution:

set_author(icon_url="url_of_the_image")

[slate swan]

👍

[fiery salmon]

then the error will go away lmao
cuz there wont be an issue

[blazing flint]

Exactly

[fiery salmon]

[blazing flint]

Problem solved

[slate swan]

Do you handle CallableOnCooldown in handler?

[fiery salmon]

yes

[smoky sinew]

"this function is being ratelimited, please try again in 5398 seconds"

[fiery salmon]

but 3rd time, it is printed before it looks at the exception handler

[slate swan]

That's weird from nextcord

I never Had such problem when using it

[fiery salmon]

i have a /work command.
don't want users using it every second, so hence, cooldown.
I have the if isinstance(error, CallableOnCooldown):
and it is handled correctly, tells user it is on cooldown.

but error still printed to console

[fiery salmon]

damn, and now im late for work lol
thanks for trying y'all. but troll answers like this... lmao

[slate swan]

When you have time you should Ask at nextcord support server

discord.gg/nextcord

The contributors should know what is causing this

[fiery salmon]

tru, 'ppreciate that

[blazing flint]

You are trying to get errors?

[fiery salmon]

The advice u give is similar to telling someone “delete your entire code and run the program. You won’t see any errors. You’re welcome”

[blazing flint]

I don’t have enough context bro

The cooldown is the direct cause of the error

Are you trying to send the user a message when they can’t use the command because of the cooldown?

[slate swan]

🤦

[tired pollen]

Some commands should have cooldown so user can spam use it
(Or user can use it x times every y )

[blazing flint]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ugoliforej

nvm I fixed it by passing self

[fiery salmon]

@blazing flint ^^
Issue isn’t that I didn’t give context, issue is u don’t read every message I send lol
You literally just said exactly what I said here lol

[smoky sinew]

are you still making cogs for each command

why you're making it so much harder for yourself

i thought u said u werent doing that anymore

[blazing flint]

no im not

lol this is just temporary so it is easier to find errors while I am converting my commands to cogs

[smoky sinew]

you know errors tell you the exact line and traceback right

putting everything in a separate file does not help you

[slate swan]

Wondering how pseudo implementation helps catch Bugs in actual implementation

[sacred vigil]

do you guys also get this or is it me?
(the commands does not work so it might have smt to do with it)
WARNING discord.ext.commands.bot Privileged message content intent is missing, commands may not work as expected.

[smoky sinew]

you have to enable the message content intent

[sacred vigil]

all the intents is enabled

[smoky sinew]

show your code

[slate swan]

If you dont use prefixed commands or you dont need message contents its fine

[smoky sinew]

they are though

[slate swan]

Well this is just warning so

Not an actual error

[blazing flint]

for most bots, something like intents = discord.Intents.default() intents.members = True intents.message_content = True should work

or just intents = discord.Intents.all() if you have a multi-purpose bot

[smoky sinew]

no..

you shouldn't enable all intents unless you're really using them

[blazing flint]

yeah

thats what im saying

[smoky sinew]

and even discord.Intents.default() is somewhat bad, because you don't need most of them anyway, (such as typing)

[sacred vigil]

looks like it working now....

[blazing flint]

it works fine for me

[sacred vigil]

it responds so

[blazing flint]

ok

[blazing flint]

lol I am for sure saving that to my computer

wait you use lunar client?

[slate swan]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-verne-over-the-hedge-turtle-disbelief-gif-24744867

I hate that turtle

[silk fulcrum]

is this ugly green potato that climbed out of a toilet bowl even a turtle?

[slate swan]

😭

[torpid hare]

hi can someone help me my command is only returning the message if i reply to the original message otherwise it returns an empty string

@commands.hybrid_command(
        name="trivia",
        description="Get a trivia question on pokemon",
    )
    async def trivia(self, context: Context):
        try:
            with open(self.path, "r") as f:
                data = json.load(f)
                question = data[str(random.randint(1, 100))][str(random.randint(1, 20))]

                if type(question[1]) == list:
                    print(True)
                    question[1] = ' '.join(question[1])

                await context.send(f'{question[0]} {question[1]}')

                def check(message: discord.Message):
                    return message.author.id == context.author.id and message.channel.id == context.channel.id

                user_response = await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check)
                print(user_response.content.strip())

                if user_response.content.lower() == question[1].lower():

                else:
                    await context.send(f"Sorry, the correct answer was {question[1]}")

        except Exception as e:
            print(e)

[sick birch]

Do you have message content intents enabled?

[torpid hare]

that sadly was the issue i forgot to enable it, thanks

[slate swan]

what about for running the bot?
all i do is:

def run():
    bot.run(settings.DISCORD_API_TOKEN, root_logger=True)
run()

would that cause it too?

[sick birch]

not exactly

bot.run does block so nothing after it will run

[wraith knot]

how can i make the autocomplete input optional?

[slate swan]

so running the bot like this wouldn't be the culprit for this?
WARNING - discord.gateway : Can't keep up, shard ID None websocket is 25.7s behind.

[sick birch]

Probably not

[slate swan]

it's because of some blocking process

[flint heart]

How might I go about allowing a user to have multiple of the same card? I got it working for the /add command, but I can't figure out how to do it for the /pack commands. Could anyone point me in the right direction? I've been stuck on this problem for awhile now. https://pastebin.com/6XWdXefA

[smoky sinew]

how do you write a discord.ext extension? are they the same concept as bot extensions?

or do they just use the same name?

[slate swan]

Like commands?

[slate swan]

Or other extensions

[smoky sinew]

i don't even know tbh

discord.ext.commands is just a module but it's confusing that it uses the term "extension"

because you don't use bot.load_extension on it

[slate swan]

So there’s tasks and commands. You just put them in a class and use the decorator

[smoky sinew]

in discord.py extensions are just files which can be loaded

# extension.py
async def setup(bot):
    print("Loaded the extension!")
# main.py
await bot.load_extension("extension")

[slate swan]

@tasks.loop(seconds=60)
@commands.command(name='hello')
i just make a for loop to load the extensions from every folder. in each py file i have a function at the end

class TestCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
  @tasks.loop(seconds=60)
#function
  @commands.command(name='hello')
#function
async def setup(bot):
    await bot.add_cog(TestCog(bot))

[smoky sinew]

why would you do that...

reloading extensions every minute??

and the task is in an extension too

[slate swan]

No you only reload it when the bot launches.

Right.

[smoky sinew]

i know how extensions work

[smoky sinew]

i've already said that

[slate swan]

they are not related to extension files, no

but if you wanna create one you'll just have to create a new package with this tree ```

• discord
  • ext
    • your_package
      • init.py

[smoky sinew]

i see

[slate swan]

basically an empty discord/ext folder is needed

[hushed galleon]

if you're wondering, discord.ext is more specifically known as a namespace package, where sub-packages can come from different distributions / locations on sys.path
spec: https://peps.python.org/pep-0420/
guide: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/packaging-namespace-packages/
danny's other discord.ext distribution: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord-ext-menus

[smoky sinew]

interesting, i didn't know that had a name

and yeah discord.ext.menus was where i got the question from

[vital glacier]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after):
        data = await self.bot.db.fetchval('SELECT voice FROM voicemaster WHERE guild_id = $1', member.guild.id)
        if data:
            if after.channel.id and after.channel.id == data:
                channel = await member.guild.create_voice_channel(name=f"{member.name}'s channel",
                                                                  user_limit=0,
                                                                  category=after.channel.category)
                await member.move_to(channel)
                await self.bot.db.execute('INSERT INTO voicemaster_data (voice, guild, owner) VALUES ($1, $2, $3)',
                                          channel.id, channel.guild.id, member.id)
            else:
               data = await self.bot.db.fetch('SELECT * FROM voicemaster_data WHERE voice = $1', before.channel.id)
               if data:
                    voice=before.channel.guild.get_channel(data)
                    if voice:
                        if len(voice.members) == 0:
                            await voice.delete()
                            await self.bot.db.execute('DELETE FROM voicemaster_data WHERE voice = $1', before.channel.id)

I'm trying to make it so that if the voice channel is empty it deletes it (it does properly create it and puts it into the database, just can't seem to make it delete it if there are no members in the voice channel)
No errors in console.

[smoky sinew]

do you know if it gets to the if voice: part?

[vital glacier]

uh it should

not sure tho

[smoky sinew]

is there a short way of adding a guild_only check to a cog

or do i have to implement cog_check

[slate swan]

just don't create the command in dms?

you can set dm_permissions to False

[smoky sinew]

what does that mean

wait can slash commands even have checks

nvm i'm stupid

[slate swan]

it just doesn't create the command in dms...

🐢 istg discord.py

[smoky sinew]

i want it per-cog though

i'm making a tag cog and there is no command that can be used in dms since tags are specific to a guild

[slate swan]

you can do ```py
for command in commands_in_that_cog:
app_commands.guild_only()(command)

[smoky sinew]

💀

calling decorator manually

[slate swan]

i mean they could have just allowed a dm_permission argument in the @command decorator

they don't even add it as an attribute for Command object ( atleast not documented)

[slate swan]

you can do command.guild_only = True instead
https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/app_commands/commands.py#L2447

[unkempt canyon]

discord/app_commands/commands.py line 2447

f.guild_only = True```

[smoky sinew]

can't i just do something like

async def cog_check(self, ...):
    return await commands.check(app_commands.guild_only(...))

that probably does not make sense

[hushed galleon]

if your tag commands are all encompassed under one command group (or using GroupCog), you only need to apply the guild_only() decorator to that group

[smoky sinew]

yeah i was about to say that lol

[slate swan]

guild_only is not a check but simply a decorator that sets attributes, so this won't work

[smoky sinew]

i see

[hushed galleon]

oh yeah i forgot about the last time i tried migrating tags to slash commands, iirc it was infinitely worse at handling formatting

[smoky sinew]

are there any examples of app_commands.Group

[hushed galleon]

modals didnt give you the same syntax preview / autocomplete, and you cant write multi-line tags for a single command parameter

[slate swan]

check Ash's gist ( in the pins)

[hushed galleon]

funny that they dont have one in the repo, but there's like three different ways to make groups

[smoky sinew]

oh yeah hmm

they should add a TextStyle.markdown tbh

[hushed galleon]

wait, @app_commands.group() and tree.group() dont exist?

[smoky sinew]

i think it's only a class

[slate swan]

they don't 💀

[smoky sinew]

maybe wait_for("message") could work

[hushed galleon]

ah its still 3 options, creating Group, inheriting Group, or inheriting GroupCog

[smoky sinew]

what's GroupCog

[hushed galleon]

!d discord.ext.commands.GroupCog

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.GroupCog

class discord.ext.commands.GroupCog(*args, **kwargs)```
Represents a cog that also doubles as a parent [`discord.app_commands.Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Group "discord.app_commands.Group") for the application commands defined within it.

This inherits from [`Cog`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog "discord.ext.commands.Cog") and the options in [`CogMeta`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CogMeta "discord.ext.commands.CogMeta") also apply to this. See the [`Cog`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog "discord.ext.commands.Cog") documentation for methods.

Decorators such as [`guild_only()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.guild_only "discord.app_commands.guild_only"), [`guilds()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.guilds "discord.app_commands.guilds"), and [`default_permissions()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.default_permissions "discord.app_commands.default_permissions") will apply to the group if used on top of the cog.

Hybrid commands will also be added to the Group, giving the ability to categorize slash commands into groups, while keeping the prefix-style command as a root-level command.

For example...

[smoky sinew]

epic

can i still use @app_commands.guild_only() on it?

[slate swan]

app_commands API feels very different than commands extension 💀

[smoky sinew]

it is

[hushed galleon]

if you have a bot user and access to message_content sure, but it kind of demonstrates the limitations of slash commands

oh shit what if you used a message context menu instead? that might work better

[slate swan]

from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands

@app_commands.guild_only()
class MyCog(commands.GroupCog, group_name='my-cog'):
    pass
``` yeah~

[smoky sinew]

yeah obviously it would work better because it's a message command you can literally make it work any way you like by not forcing yourself to use discord's horrible api

[hushed galleon]

nah not prefix commands, message commands

[smoky sinew]

what's the difference

[hushed galleon]

as if the confusion wasnt enough

[slate swan]

how would you get the tag name~

[smoky sinew]

i call those right-click commands

[slate swan]

a modal? perhaps

[smoky sinew]

yes but you have to type the tag out before hand, but i was thinking of that as a secondary option to create a tag

you can only have up to 5 context menu commands

[hushed galleon]

dpy calls em context menus and distinguishes user/message menus with parameter typehints
