[wicked atlas]

Are all your versions the same between your computer and the host?

[scarlet aurora]

yes discord.py==2.2.2

nothing else was changed

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "help" is not found```

[smoky sinew]

what's your code though

[scarlet aurora]

for every command idk why

[smoky sinew]

is it possible that the code is different

[scarlet aurora]

main.py?

what code do u want

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

sure

[scarlet aurora]

import os
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.all()

class Bot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(
            command_prefix=">",
            intents=intents
        )

    async def setup_hook(self):
        for filename in os.listdir("./cogs"):
            if filename.endswith('.py'):
                await self.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')
                print(f"Loaded {filename}")
            if filename.startswith("__"):
                pass
        await bot.tree.sync()
    
bot = Bot()

bot.remove_command('help')

async def on_ready():
    await bot.change_presence(activity = discord.Streaming(name = ">help", url = "https://www.twitch.tv/tmgwolv"))

[smoky sinew]

you're doing remove_command("help")?

[scarlet aurora]

yes so I can make my on >help command

[smoky sinew]

why are you using requests too

[smoky sinew]

show your help cog

do you know if it's being loaded on the host?

[scarlet aurora]

prolly not if it can't pick up any of the commands

class Utils(commands.Cog):

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot 

    @commands.command()
    async def help(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(
            colour=0x2F3136
        )
        embed.add_field(name="Main", value=">help (shows this command)\n>crypto\n>music help\n>changelog", inline=False)
        embed.add_field(name="Fun", value=">fun help\n>quote\n>cmds", inline=False)
        embed.add_field(name="Admin", value=">admin help\n>media help", inline=False)

        await ctx.send(embed=embed)

    @app_commands.command(name="help", description="Shows commands")
    async def s_help(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        embed = discord.Embed(

        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed)

utils.py ^^

[smoky sinew]

you duplicate your code for each command?

what does the file structure look like on the host

[scarlet aurora]

what is there an easier way?

[smoky sinew]

just use hybrid commands

[scarlet aurora]

how does one use hybrid commands?

[scarlet aurora]

u just throw the folder in

same as how u have it on your pc

worked for my last version which was 1.7.3

now it's 2.2.2 it just doesn't wanna work

none of it works

[slate swan]

how do you get the slow mode data from voice channels?
AttributeError: 'VoiceChannel' object has no attribute 'slowmode_delay'

[slate swan]

your discord.py is outdated

!d discord.VoiceChannel.slowmode_delay exists 🤷‍♂️

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.slowmode\_delay

The number of seconds a member must wait between sending messages in this channel. A value of 0 denotes that it is disabled. Bots and users with manage_channels or manage_messages bypass slowmode.

New in version 2.2.

[slate swan]

oh its in 2.2 ty

f you know discord.py, kindly please help me with my issue: How do I force the user to chose from a list when providing input in discord.py?

[slate swan]

are you using slash commands?

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean by "force"

[slate swan]

uhh hybrid I think

[slate swan]

check the thread

[smoky sinew]

what thread

[slate swan]

@smoky sinew any reason why discord does this:
'Command' object has no attribute 'param'

    @commands.command(
        name = 'help',
        description = "Gets help information from lain.",
        usage = "yaml\nSyntax: ,help (command) <subcommand>\nExample: ,help settings ban",
        information = "None",
        param = "command",
        aliases = ["h"])```

[shrewd fjord]

check the docs once 🗿

There is no uses of param on the command deco

[stone gate]

how do i do optional variables like this?

[smoky sinew]

just set a default value using the equals sign

[smoky sinew]

what is param

you can't just make arguments up

[slate swan]

i know let me do something else then

[stone gate]

how would like look?

    produccion = none
    async def producir(self, interaction, fabrica: str, produccion: str):```

like this?

[smoky sinew]

no

produccion: str = None

[stone gate]

oh, i see

thanks

[smoky sinew]

produccion: typing.Optional[str] = None is technically correct though

[dense jackal]

when I send py -3 -m pip install -U easy-pil it keeps telling me

!d discord.Member.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

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

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. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.11)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with 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. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[shrewd fjord]

its samew

same*

wdym?

[shrewd fjord]

if u r asking your embed is correct or not, yes its ok

[karmic nimbus]

how do i find user without mentioning? similar to ?whois command on Dyno bot

[maiden fable]

wym find a user without mentioning?

use their ID?

[karmic nimbus]

no, using their display name ?whois tyrion

[maiden fable]

typehint the user parameter with discord.Member

Restart IDE
Make sure the correct Python version is selected

Python version

How many python versions do u have

Make sure u r installing and using the correct Python version

Then u r using the wrong Python version

[slate swan]

How can i get an user's status like dnd, online etc via the discord api

[vocal snow]

whats the issue?

[vocal snow]

which user's?

a specific one or\

which IDE is this?

which python version is selected in bottom bar?

and what does py -V give you?

[slate swan]

Like by id

[vocal snow]

and python -V?

[vocal snow]

you can use bot.get_user/fetch_user

!d discord.Client.fetch_user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.fetch\_user

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

Retrieves a [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") based on their ID. You do not have to share any guilds with the user to get this information, however many operations do require that you do.

Note

This method is an API call. If you have [`discord.Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") and member cache enabled, consider [`get_user()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.get_user "discord.Client.get_user") instead.

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

[vocal snow]

and then use user.activity/status

[slate swan]

Emphasis on api as in like the web api

[vocal snow]

make sure your presence intents are enabled

[vocal snow]

discord.py is an api wrapper

[slate swan]

Yeah, im using the raw api

[vocal snow]

then just check the api docs for the endpoint

well, switch the vsc interpreter to 3.11.2

or fix your pythonpath

bottom bar

click the version and it'll show a menu

well which one is 3.11

you can also manually enter the interpreter path

!dashmpip

[unkempt canyon]

Install packages with `python -m pip`

When trying to install a package via pip, it's recommended to invoke pip as a module: python -m pip install your_package.

Why would we use python -m pip instead of pip?
Invoking pip as a module ensures you know which pip you're using. This is helpful if you have multiple Python versions. You always know which Python version you're installing packages to.

Note
The exact python command you invoke can vary. It may be python3 or py, ensure it's correct for your system.

[vocal snow]

you forgot to call .all()

[young dagger]

Is this correct?

@client.command(name = 'setup')
@commands.guild_only()
@commands.cooldown(1, 5.0, commands.BucketType.user)
async def setup(ctx, *, summoner_name: str=None):
    ... code here ...

@setup.error
async def setup_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
        await ctx.send(str(error))```

[sick birch]

What happens when you run it?

[young dagger]

No clue yet 😄

[sick birch]

Give it a try

[raw dock]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='.',intents="default") not run why?

[slate swan]

define intents as intents = intents.discordIntents.default() before it and instead of default use intents

[raw dock]

?

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='.',intents="default")

@bot.command()
async def testy(ctx):
await ctx.send('test1 :)')

bot.run

[raw dock]

hmm

intents = intents.discordIntents.default() (all)?

[slate swan]

?

default would be that you have set up in your bot

[raw dock]

sorry i m new on programing 3 years ago be good now is nev update etc

[sick birch]

You need to pass in a discord.Intents object to commands.Bot:

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True # allows your bot to respond to commands

bot = commands.bot(..., intents=intents)

[slate swan]

but you can as well use intents = discord.Intents.all()

[raw dock]

wery thx bro

hmm

@slate swan can you have traning bot discord

script*

[slate swan]

?

wym can I hava? and wym training?

[raw dock]

because I would like to learn because I wanted to have a moderation boda when it was good and now I have problems with intents

cause it should in theory

[thin raft]

"doesn't work"

what doesn't work

[sick birch]

Pardon?

[vale wing]

No way reaction permissions in discord bots

[slate swan]

help guys pls

#1088559034027753572

[slate swan]

not a great way to write a discord bot

what do you mean

[slate swan]

yeah i'm new

could you help me ?

[slate swan]

outside of

@client.event

use @client.command

like this

@client.command()
async def doSomething(thing: str):
  await ctx.reply(embed = discord.Embed(title = thing))

Ill write it for you

[slate swan]

lemme test 🙏

@client.command
async def ping(ctx):
  ping = round(client.latency @ 1000)
  embed = discord.Embed(title = "Client to Bot Ping", description = ping, color = int(colors[red]))
  await ctx.reply(embed = embed)

try this

huh

og

😹

oh

[slate swan]

is there something wrong

oh and you need this

colors = {
  "default": 0,
  "teal": 0x1abc9c,
  "dark_teal": 0x11806a,
  "green": 0x2ecc71,
  "dark_green": 0x1f8b4c,
  "blue": 0x3498db,
  "dark_blue": 0x206694,
  "purple": 0x9b59b6,
  "dark_purple": 0x71368a,
  "magenta": 0xe91e63,
  "dark_magenta": 0xad1457,
  "gold": 0xf1c40f,
  "dark_gold": 0xc27c0e,
  "orange": 0xe67e22,
  "dark_orange": 0xa84300,
  "red": 0xe74c3c,
  "dark_red": 0x992d22,
  "lighter_grey": 0x95a5a6,
  "dark_grey": 0x607d8b,

  "darker_grey": 0x546e7a,
  "blurple": 0x7289da,
  "greyple": 0x99aab5
}

thats just a dictionary I made

it makes it easier

colors[(the color that you want)]

so, if you wanted red: colors["red"]

[slate swan]

sure

lemme save this thanks

oh

I mean I was talking to @slate swan

but yeah you can use it to

[slate swan]

yeah ik

i just took the chance 😹

do you want me to teach you to use slash commands?

it works for me

whats the error

make sure you use the dictionary @slate swan

colors = {
  "default": 0,
  "teal": 0x1abc9c,
  "dark_teal": 0x11806a,
  "green": 0x2ecc71,
  "dark_green": 0x1f8b4c,
  "blue": 0x3498db,
  "dark_blue": 0x206694,
  "purple": 0x9b59b6,

  "darker_grey": 0x546e7a,
  "blurple": 0x7289da,
  "greyple": 0x99aab5
}

put it above the function

@slate swan it's not working

uhh

strange

[slate swan]

first off

you are using @

instead of *, prob my bad

use the dictionary

above

[slate swan]

it's not

[slate swan]

I mean it would haev caused the error, but use

intents = discord.Intents.all()
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="vh!!", intents=intents)
bot.remove_command("help")

use bot instead of client, imo its better

so its

@bot.command
async def ping(ctx):
  ping = round(client.latency * 1000)
  embed = discord.Embed(title = "Client to Bot Ping", description = ping, color = int(colors[red]))
  await ctx.reply(embed = embed)

paste this at before you pasted the function:

colors = {
  "default": 0,
  "teal": 0x1abc9c,
  "dark_teal": 0x11806a,
  "green": 0x2ecc71,
  "dark_green": 0x1f8b4c,
  "blue": 0x3498db,
  "dark_blue": 0x206694,
  "purple": 0x9b59b6,
  "dark_purple": 0x71368a,
  "magenta": 0xe91e63,
  "dark_magenta": 0xad1457,
  "gold": 0xf1c40f,
  "dark_gold": 0xc27c0e,
  "orange": 0xe67e22,
  "dark_orange": 0xa84300,
  "red": 0xe74c3c,
  "dark_red": 0x992d22,
  "lighter_grey": 0x95a5a6,
  "dark_grey": 0x607d8b,
  "light_grey": 0x979c9f,
  "darker_grey": 0x546e7a,
  "blurple": 0x7289da,
  "greyple": 0x99aab5
}

@slate swan hmm ?

bot = discord.Client()

@slate swan

and use @bot.command instead of @client.command

...

above the function

ohhhh

remove client = discord.Client

or it should be bot = discord,Bot

[slate swan]

@slate swan hmm ?

hold up

[slate swan]

?

no

outside of the command, above it

[patent wagon]

hi. im making a bot that plays a game with you

it prints this first one

but it cant detect when lenCround becomes 1

how do i fix it

did i make a mistake in async code?

if someone know how do i make it work please ping

[gusty flax]

How to make what work

[patent wagon]

this

it never prints "1"

it cant detect when len(Cround) becomes 1

[gusty flax]

then... len(Cround) is never 1, while its checking.

[patent wagon]

i will set it to one right before the loop and check

huh

... it does work

bruh this is wierd

i dont know why it wont detect Cround

i set it to global variable

for some reason it is not appending anything to Cround

[smoky sinew]

paranthesis

[patent wagon]

why does Cround variable remains empty after this function

[smoky sinew]

no... bot is for ext.commands.Bot and client is for discord.Client please stop

[patent wagon]

it should append one element into it

it completely fails to either append anyting to Cround it doesnt delete the element from pHand variable and it doesnt change the player

[hasty bison]

i use this to check channel but it doesnt work

[fading marlin]

channel.id returns an integer, not a string

[smoky sinew]

where are you defining onMove

there's always a better choice than using globals

[lone ivy]

Are there any pros/cons to using one over (discord.py and nextcord)?

[smoky sinew]

it's personal preference really

you might find more help with discord.py unless you go to the nextcord server

but there are a lot of other libraries like pycord, disnake, hikari, etc

[lone ivy]

I appreciate the info 🙂 thank you

[patent wagon]

i need onMove in like every function

i defined it in the beginning and just used global everywhere

[jade needle]

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();

const weeklyRequirements = {
"[L3] Admiral": {"recruited": 4, "events": 4}, // ADMIRAL Member must have recruited at least 10 members and attended at least 5 events per week
"[L2] Vice Admiral": {"recruited": 20, "events": 10}, // Member must have recruited at least 20 members and attended at least 10 events per week
"[L1] Rear Admiral": {"recruited": 30, "events": 15} // Member must have recruited at least 30 members and attended at least 15 events per week
};

client.on('message', message => {
if (message.content === '!leaderboard') {
const members = message.guild.members.cache.sort((a, b) => a.displayName.localeCompare(b.displayName));

    const leaderboard = [];

    members.forEach(member => {
        const roles = member.roles.cache.map(role => role.name);

        if (roles.includes("[L3] Admiral") || roles.includes("[L2] Vice Admiral") || roles.includes("[L1] Rear Admiral")) {
            const roleRequirements = weeklyRequirements[roles.filter(role => Object.keys(weeklyRequirements).includes(role))[0]];
            
            const meetsRequirements = member.recruited_members >= roleRequirements.recruited && member.events_attended >= roleRequirements.events;
            
            leaderboard.push([member.displayName, meetsRequirements]);
        }
    });

    leaderboard.sort((a, b) => a[0].localeCompare(b[0]));

    let messageContent = '```LEADERBOARD:\n';
    leaderboard.forEach((entry, index) => {
        messageContent += `${index + 1}. ${entry[0]}: ${entry[1]}\n`;
    });
    messageContent += '```';
    message.channel.send(messageContent);
}

});

.

could someeone please help me on why that is not working?

[smoky sinew]

do you realize what server you are in

[gaunt pagoda]

Hey folks! I'm not sure if it's done before but I just made a discord bot using bing chat on top of @acheong08's EdgeGPT. Used bing chat because it's one of easiest ways to interact with GPT-4 imo together with active web browsing. The bot is able to handle /ask and /imagine commands.

[jade needle]

Python?

[fading marlin]

yes

[jade needle]

And?

[fading marlin]

what you provided is js code

[jade needle]

Oh

Ok

[smoky sinew]

you aren't using python

[vital glacier]

Any reason this all of a sudden broke?
I'm talking ab the

VoiceMaster Interface is constrainted to ...

It works properly in the value part of the fields, but not the description of the embed

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands

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

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    # print a message when the bot is ready
    print(f'{client.user.name} has connected to Discord!')

@client.event
async def on_guild_join(guild):
    # send a message to the default channel when the bot joins a server
    default_channel = guild.text_channels[0]
    await default_channel.send('Have a good day!')

# run the bot with your Discord bot token
client.run('YOUR_BOT_TOKEN')

can someone help me with this because it dose not work

[smoky sinew]

what is your code

looks like your markdown is not being escaped

[smoky sinew]

"does not work" does not help us figure out your problem

[vital glacier]

uh sec

[unkempt canyon]

@vital glacier Per Rule 6, your invite link has been removed. If you believe this was a mistake, please let staff know!

Our server rules can be found here: https://pythondiscord.com/pages/rules

[vital glacier]

oh shi right

!paste

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ocivemihur @smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

hmm

maybe it has something to do with the string being on a new line but that shouldn't affect it

[vital glacier]

thats what i thought

because the fields have it the same way

[ionic garden]

        msg = await i.response.send_message(embed=embed, view=view)
```why does this return none

[shut surge]

Hi, does anyone know about an issue with the ctx.voice_client.play command? It throws the error CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: ClientException: Not connected to voice even though the bot is actually in a voice channel. I have already tried reconnecting it, but it's not working.

[smoky sinew]

InteractionResponse.send_message does not return anything

!d discord.Interaction.original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.original\_response

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

Fetches the original interaction response message associated with the interaction.

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

Repeated calls to this will return a cached value.

[ionic garden]

i want to reply w/ a msg that i ediit later down the line

[smoky sinew]

see this

[ionic garden]

so i call i.og_response()?

[smoky sinew]

what is og_response

it's a coroutine it needs to be awaited

[ionic garden]

og = original

but i fricked around and found out

that is what you call apparently

[dense jackal]

idk why but my welcome message is sent on 2 different messages. Here's my script - https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ematewaxot

[smoky sinew]

because you have two channel.send lines

[dense jackal]

How can I make both into one?

[smoky sinew]

by putting the file argument into the first one

[dense jackal]

Cause I have a file + text

await channel.send(f"Hello{member.mention}! Welcome To **{member.guild.name} For more informations, go to #rules**")(file=file) like that?

Looks like that’s not it @smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

no

a function can have multiple arguments like this function(a, b, c)

[dense jackal]

Oh

[smoky sinew]

in your example you are calling the return value of channel.send which is a message

and you cannot call a message

[dense jackal]

Didnt know ty

[dense jackal]

Wdym

Alright ty it worked

[smoky sinew]

!e ```py
class MyClass:
def call(self):

calling the class

my_class = MyClass()
my_class()

calling the function

Anyone got an idea on why it's doing this? Even tho it has parameters.

[naive briar]

Where did you get that information

There's no parameters property

[vital glacier]

How do you mean?

You know that parameters are like user: discord.Member, reason='none'

Right?

[smoky sinew]

that is derived from the function signature

[vital glacier]

How do you mean

[smoky sinew]

there is no such thing as Command.params

[naive briar]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.clean_params

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.clean\_params

property clean_params```
Dict[[`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.11)"), [`Parameter`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Parameter "discord.ext.commands.Parameter")]: Retrieves the parameter dictionary without the context or self parameters.

Useful for inspecting signature.

[vital glacier]

so i gotta do clean params then?

[smoky sinew]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/939c4cb1d14aa0bc6b141daaff0c5ec6e3c470c8/discord/ext/commands/core.py#L117

[unkempt canyon]

discord/ext/commands/core.py line 117

def get_signature_parameters(```

[naive briar]

I'm saying that there's no parameters in discord.ext.commands.Command

[vital glacier]

wait sec

i think i mightve fixed it

[naive briar]

And those are called arguments

[vital glacier]

i prob mistyped it LOL

[smoky sinew]

no there's literally no field named parameters

[vital glacier]

Well, explain to me how it works if i add the extras to my command

with commands.parameters

[smoky sinew]

what is commands.parameters

where did you find that

[vital glacier]

idk where i found that, ive had it for so long in my code LOL

Like genuinely months up to a year most def

[vital glacier]

This is with the 'extras' in my code, so if command.extra:

and that works as it should, its the part where if I don't have the extras in my command code, it doesnt work

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.extras

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.extras

A dict of user provided extras to attach to the Command.

Note

This object may be copied by the library.

[smoky sinew]

it's just a dictionary, nothing beyond that

[vital glacier]

ok so, this is what i have for my kick cmd right

    @commands.command(
        name='kick',
        usage=
        'Syntax: (user) <reason>\n'
        'Example: void#0480 calm down',
        aliases=['boot'],
        extras={'perms': 'Kick Members'})
    @commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)
    async def kick(self, ctx, user: discord.Member, *, reason: str = 'No reason provided'):

but if i dont have the 'extras' part in there, it should put Permissions: Send Messages

which it doesn't

[vital glacier]

And this is the thing from the embed screenshot i sent, from the command help: kick

which works as it should

[naive briar]

What

[vital glacier]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.brief

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.brief

The short help text for the command.

[vital glacier]

?

!d discord.ext.commands.Command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command

class discord.ext.commands.Command(*args, **kwargs)```
A class that implements the protocol for a bot text command.

These are not created manually, instead they are created via the decorator or functional interface.

[smoky sinew]

huh

[vital glacier]

see how im confused

[smoky sinew]

yeah

[vital glacier]

that's what i mean

for some reason commands.parameters does work, but it doesnt want to work if there is no command.extra

cus then it says it doesnt have params to the command, which it does tho

[naive briar]

Do you know the difference between app_commands.Command and ext.commands.Command

[vital glacier]

i dont use app commands

[naive briar]

And what are you even trying to do

!d discord.app_commands.Command.parameters

[vital glacier]

u see this?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Command.parameters

property parameters```
Returns a list of parameters for this command.

This does not include the `self` or `interaction` parameters.

[naive briar]

The parameters only exists for app_commands.Command

Where did you get the information that the parameters property exists for ext.commands.Command

[vital glacier]

I tried it one time and it works like i wanted, so i always used it

Since it gives me what i need

[dense jackal]

if member.content == "!test": await channel.send(f"Hello{member.mention}! Welcome To **{member.guild.name} For more informations, go to #rules**", file=file) else: return

It doesn't send my message idk why

When I do channel.content it still doesn’t work

[smoky sinew]

member.content?

what content can a member have

[vital glacier]

well i use commands.command() or commands.group(). i don't have one single slash command in my bot

[dense jackal]

Channel.content mb

[smoky sinew]

that doesn't exist either

[dense jackal]

Then how am I supposed to do my test command

[smoky sinew]

by using the commands extension

[dense jackal]

Its ctx right?

[dense jackal]

How does that work

Never heard of that

[smoky sinew]

i thought i saw you use it in your modmail bot

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx: commands.Context) -> None:
    await ctx.send("hi")

[dense jackal]

When I paste my welcome message instead of ("hi") everything isn’t defined tho

[smoky sinew]

yes

[dense jackal]

Then how

[smoky sinew]

that's because you are in a different scope

[dense jackal]

Yes ik

[smoky sinew]

define it outside the function

[dense jackal]

I dont get it

[smoky sinew]

!scope

[unkempt canyon]

Scoping rules

A scope defines the visibility of a name within a block, where a block is a piece of python code executed as a unit. For simplicity, this would be a module, a function body, and a class definition. A name refers to text bound to an object.

For more information about names, see /tag names

A module is the source code file itself, and encompasses all blocks defined within it. Therefore if a variable is defined at the module level (top-level code block), it is a global variable and can be accessed anywhere in the module as long as the block in which it's referenced is executed after it was defined.

Alternatively if a variable is defined within a function block for example, it is a local variable. It is not accessible at the module level, as that would be outside its scope. This is the purpose of the return statement, as it hands an object back to the scope of its caller. Conversely if a function was defined inside the previously mentioned block, it would have access to that variable, because it is within the first function's scope.

>>> def outer():
...     foo = 'bar'     # local variable to outer
...     def inner():
...         print(foo)  # has access to foo from scope of outer
...     return inner    # brings inner to scope of caller
...
>>> inner = outer()  # get inner function
>>> inner()  # prints variable foo without issue
bar

2. global statement
3. nonlocal statement

[dense jackal]

Im a little bit lost @smoky sinew

Does that mean I have to give access from my member to my ctx block outside of blocks?

[smoky sinew]

no just put the welcome message outside the function where you defined it

[dense jackal]

The await channel.send (f"hello… line?

[smoky sinew]

i don't know what your welcome message is since you said you can't use it

[dense jackal]

Where do I put my command in this?

[meager chasm]

the callback name is taken as the command name if that's what you mean

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html

[slate swan]

async def vanitysnipe(ctx, code):
    while True:
        response = requests.get(f"https://discord.com/api/v9/invites/%7Bcode%7D%22)
        if response.status_code == 404:
            await ctx.guild.edit(vanity_code=code)
            await ctx.send(f"Vanity invite '{code}' has been set!")
            break
        else:
            await asyncio.sleep(10)``` would this be able to work?

(basically checks for the availability of a certain vanity every 10 seconds & if its available then change it to this vanity name

[glad cradle]

requests.get is a blocking function you shouldn't use it

and you should use a @tasks.loop instead of a command if you need to periodically check it

[slate swan]

ok wait

[slate swan]

@tasks.loop(minutes=1)
async def vanity_snipe():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get("https://discord.com/api/v9/invites/<code>") as response:
            if response.status == 404:
                await ctx.guild.edit(vanity_code=code)
                await ctx.send(f"Vanity invite '{code}' has been set!")
                vanity_snipe.stop()``` is this ok?

[forest hatch]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75833360/my-discord-bot-is-cannot-leave-voice-channel-in-other-server

did u guys can help me with this?

[glad cradle]

yeah but code isn't defined, what are trying to do?

[slate swan]

i forgot

[glad cradle]

and in a tasks.loop you don't have a ctx object

tasks.loop let you be able to run a task in background periodically

[slate swan]

ok i replaced ut with the bot object

@tasks.loop(minutes=1)
async def vanity_snipe():
code = "fbi"
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
async with session.get("https://discord.com/api/v9/invites/<code>") as response:

guild = discord.utils.get(bot.guilds, id=<guild_id>)
await guild.edit(vanity_code=code)
channel = bot.get_channel(<channel_id>)
await channel.send(f"Vanity invite '{code}' has been set!")
vanity_snipe.stop()

hey guys i am getting a issue in tht my bot is not responnding to the hi message need help

[slate swan]

it’s possible the issue you’re experiencing is related to the discord. py library

In versions prior to 1.7.0, there was a known bug that could cause voice connections to become stuck when disconnecting from a voice channel

Yo @forest hatch try to add more debugging code to find out whats wrong

@client.command()
async def leave(ctx):
if ctx.voice_client is None:
await ctx.send("I'm not in a voice channel.")
return
elif ctx.author.voice is None:
await ctx.send("You are not in a voice channel.")
return
elif ctx.voice_client.channel.guild != ctx.author.voice.channel.guild:
await ctx.send("I'm not in a voice channel in this server.")
return
else:
print(f"Leaving {ctx.voice_client.channel.name}")
await ctx.voice_client.disconnect()
await ctx.send("Left the voice channel.")

@slate swancan i get help??

send your script

[glad cradle]

are you trying to detect if the vanity invite changed? like an event?

[slate swan]

am i supposed to send my token as well??

[slate swan]

no its a vanity sniper

[slate swan]

no you are not

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

client = commands.Bot('commands_prefi = '!')

@client.event
async def on_ready():
print ("The bot is ready for use!")
print ("---------------------------")

@client.command()
async def hello (ctx):
await ctx.send ("welcome..... chl ja bhai")

client.run ("")

.

[slate swan]

did you make sure the bot has those specific intents enabled

message content intent

[slate swan]

heh i am new in this so can u wht u mean plss

do this

import discord

intents = discord.Intents.all()
bot = discord.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

[slate swan]

i guess i gave adminstrator

[forest hatch]

i try that, but there no error showing up

[slate swan]

use this code instead and tell me whats wrong

[slate swan]

theres this page in the application settings

[forest hatch]

in the log the code it seem to be work properly, but in discord the bot doesn't realy left the voice channel

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/_images/discord_privileged_intents.png

discord.ext.commands.Bot

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

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

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

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

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

New in version 2.0.

[blissful badge]

Does anyone have any good python sticky bot code examples by any chance?

Or maybe can point me in the right direction as to where to get started with that kind of functionality

[slate swan]

bruh wdym

[blissful badge]

The functionality to sticky a message in a chat and keep it at the bottom

https://www.stickybot.info/ like stickybot

[slate swan]

dont send links they are complicated

@thin raftping this guy he is smart

[blissful badge]

@thin raft will take any pointers!

[thin raft]

?

[blissful badge]

You familiar at all with python code that enables your bot to pin a message at the bottom of chat and keep it pinned?

[thin raft]

I won't spoon feed code

[slate swan]

broo guess it wrked

[blissful badge]

Of course not, was seeing if you knew of any resources

[slate swan]

go chat gpt i guess

hee will spoon feed code

[blissful badge]

But if you are just gunna assume im looking for you to spoon feed me code then I will just look for help elsewhere, sorry for tagging you.

[thin raft]

Nah dw

Try to do it urself

[slate swan]

me??

[thin raft]

And tell what's wrong with the code

[naive briar]

Holy

[slate swan]

@thin raftyaaaa

[naive briar]

That bot sure is trustworthy

[slate swan]

hey u ignoring me

bruh

[blissful badge]

For context I have found some and have been working with it, but struggling with figuring out how to keep it at the bottom.

I've got

@bot.command(sticky)
async def pin_message(ctx):
  await ctx.message.pin()

@tasks.loop(seconds=1)
async def pin_message():
    message = ('message id ')
    await message.pin(message id)

but I am getting a bit confused on the args. Will, with this format, will it just pull whatever is after "sticky" and use it as the message?

Or do I need to use something like ctx.fetch_message? Is that only for a message outside of what the user pinged it with?

[slate swan]

umm can i know ur age

lol

[blissful badge]

Why, lol

[naive briar]

What's this

[slate swan]

u have nitro so i asked

[blissful badge]

Oh

I am an adult

[slate swan]

oh

[blissful badge]

code to pin messages at the bottom of chat

I think aha

[quick gust]

so the latest message?

[slate swan]

Hello

[naive briar]

Hi 🐈

[blissful badge]

It would be whatever message the user sent with it, or thats what I want.

So for example ?stick test message

and it would keep "test message" at the bottom of the chat

[quick gust]

idk if that's possible without repeatedly sending it and deleting the previous message every time someone sends something

[slate swan]

You store your message somewhere then periodically re-send the contents of the message (probably either with task loop or on_message) whilst deleting the previous sticky message

[blissful badge]

Yeah that would be the goal

So I guess thats where I would get stumped, at how/where to store the message contents

[quick gust]

you can use a database

[slate swan]

Just storing it inside a script variable would be quick and easy, but you can also use some sort of database to keep your data safe between restarts

[quick gust]

I guess?

[blissful badge]

That is definitely where my python knowledge starts to waver, so imma have to do some research. If anyone has any good resources for setting up a database that I can try and learn from that would be awesome, if not imma dive in and start looking around.

Appreciate the answers!

[quick gust]

For such a small task you could use json for the time being, until you learn how to use a database

[slate swan]

My recommendation is to familiarise yourself with SQL and install aiosqlite or a similar library, which makes database operations pretty simple

umm can anyone tell me how to learn python lol

#databases is also a good place to ask questions regarding SQL as well

[slate swan]

DM?

[uneven hearth]

can someone help me please? i'm using discord:Member for certain commands, and when i'm kicking/banning someone, it keep showing me the list of members in the server, even if the user is not even there anymore.

[thin raft]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Formatting code on discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

[uneven hearth]

?

[hushed galleon]

what keeps showing the kicked/banned member? the Guild.members attribute? the autocomplete on a slash command? sharing your code makes it easier to figure out what's happening

[willow hawk]

How does the dank memer bot include commands in the about me? When you click on them, it executes the command in the current channel.

[hushed galleon]

i believe that's a regular slash command mention formatted with </name:id> where the id is whatever its registered as on discord

[willow hawk]

How do you find the id?

[hushed galleon]

not sure of an easy way to do so while in-app but you can fetch it through their api

[willow hawk]

Thanks!

[hushed galleon]

@willow hawk with discord.py for example:
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree.fetch_commands

i thought there was a Command.fetch() method before, but apparently not

[tough lance]

You can type in the /command, click on the option that appears above (do not press enter yet) and right click on the small bar showing the selected command.

@willow hawk for you ^

[hushed galleon]

oh right, i heard that before but forgot how to do it and was right clicking the literal text

[ionic garden]

how do i insert a button between two other buttons?

there's a generic thing i wanna use in multiple classes

but i don't want it to just be tacked at the end

[tough lance]

Remove last button, add the middle button. Re add the last button.

[ionic garden]

jesus that's scuffed

[ionic garden]

        exit_button = self.children[-1]
        self.remove_item(exit_button)
        self.add_item(Backpack(row=1))
        self.add_item(exit_button)
```and it doesn't even work

after running this the backpack button is still at the back

[tough lance]

I recreated this, and it works.

[smoky sinew]

@blissful badge i don't know if this will work, but try this

sticky_messages = {}

@bot.command()
async def sticky(ctx, message: discord.Message) -> None:
    if message.author != bot.user:
        await ctx.send("Sender must be bot")
        return

    sticky_messages[message.channel.id] = message.id
    await ctx.send("Stickied the message")

@bot.event
async def on_message(message: discord.Message) -> None:
    if message.channel.id in sticky_messages:
        sticky_message = await bot.fetch_message(sticky_messages[message.channel.id])
        await sticky_message.delete()
        await message.channel.send(sticky_message.content)

[blissful badge]

Hey! I will give this a shot. Thank you!

Had a teeny bit of luck but this definitely does some things differently so maybe this will work better.

[smoky sinew]

this will only work temporarily, you will probably want sqlite

i will make a better version hold on

[fading marlin]

you need a channel to use fetch_message 🤔

[smoky sinew]

yeah

[fading marlin]

you can also just get a partial message

[hushed galleon]

well re-sending the message requires knowing the original content so fetching is probably necessary (unless you don't mind caching the content)

[fading marlin]

oh I didn't see the message.content

[smoky sinew]

you will still need to delete the message either way

but PartialMessage works for that

[ionic garden]

i put that in __init__

[tough lance]

Call super().__init__() first

[ionic garden]

i did

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/evayosayey

result:

nvm i had to do some weird stuff w/ the ordering first

        exit_button = self.children[1]
        self.remove_item(exit_button)
        self.add_item(Backpack(row=1))
        self.add_item(exit_button)
        self.add_item(DecisionSelect(choices))
```god, this is cursed

[potent spear]

for loop ftw

[slate swan]

async def on_message(message):
    if not message.content.startswith(client.command_prefix):
        # Check if the message contains an IP address
        import re
        ip_pattern = re.compile(r"\b\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\b")
        if ip_pattern.search(message.content):
            # Timeout the user and delete the message, unless the user is a server owner
            if message.author != message.guild.owner:
                await message.channel.send(f"{message.author.mention}, please do not post IP addresses in the chat.")
                await message.delete()
                await message.author.timeout(reason="Posting IP address", timeout=60)  # Timeout duration in seconds
                return

    await client.process_commands(message)```

i want to make this timeout the discord user for 60 secs if they post a ip

[potent spear]

so, what's your actual question?

also, I highly suggest you to use "guard clauses" in programming, it prevents indentation like yours
(where you're 3 indentations deep already and it becomes unclear what if statement is where)

[slate swan]

i want it to use the discord /timeout then the user thats posting ips it would time them out for 60 secs

[potent spear]

and what's currently going wrong in your implementation?

[slate swan]

its not timing the user out

[potent spear]

does it ever send this message
await message.channel.send(f"{message.author.mention}, please do not post IP addresses in the chat.")

[slate swan]

yeah

[potent spear]

does it delete the message?

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

it delete the ip

[slate swan]

.

[potent spear]

so this line
await message.author.timeout(reason="Posting IP address", timeout=60)
never gets executed? that's your actual issue?

[slate swan]

it never get executed

[potent spear]

are you sure? can you print something underneath that line and check if it does get printed?

[slate swan]

i want it to timeout the person who posting a ip for 60 secs

[potent spear]

you already said that...

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

okay

[potent spear]

no private DMs, I'm not a private tutor, just keep everything in this discord server and someone else can also help...

[slate swan]

ok

[potent spear]

maybe you should time the author out first and then delete the msg, not sure

[slate swan]

i cant timeout my self out im a owner

can someone help me please ?

you named varriable bot and used client instead

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.latency

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.latency

property latency```
Measures latency between a HEARTBEAT and a HEARTBEAT\_ACK in seconds.

This could be referred to as the Discord WebSocket protocol latency.

[slate swan]

oh yeah my bad 😂

thanks

[smoky sinew]

there's no timeout argument

it's positional-only and it requires a timedelta or datetime

await member.timeout(
    datetime.timedelta(seconds=60),
    reason="Posting IP address"
)

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

is this code correct ?

@slate swan

[ionic garden]

wdym by that?

[smoky sinew]

what's wrong with it

[potent spear]

3 additems can be replaced with a for loop

[smoky sinew]

commands.author is not a thing

[slate swan]

?

[slate swan]

when i execute the cmd :

[smoky sinew]

you probably meant ```py
print(f'".ping" command used by {ctx.author}')

but you should do this as a global check instead

[ionic garden]

but it's still extremely scuffed to make devs do it like that

[potent spear]

Can’t disagree with that

[slate swan]

exactly

[potent spear]

It’s not bad

[slate swan]

@smoky sinew what "f" means ?

[smoky sinew]

!f-strings

[unkempt canyon]

Format-strings

Creating a Python string with your variables using the + operator can be difficult to write and read. F-strings (format-strings) make it easy to insert values into a string. If you put an f in front of the first quote, you can then put Python expressions between curly braces in the string.

>>> snake = "pythons"
>>> number = 21
>>> f"There are {number * 2} {snake} on the plane."
"There are 42 pythons on the plane."

Note that even when you include an expression that isn't a string, like number * 2, Python will convert it to a string for you.

[smoky sinew]

there is also b"" r"" and other types of strings

[slate swan]

oh ok

tysm for help

worked

[slate swan]

try

[hushed galleon]

guess there isnt enough demand to have a one-liner interface for moving components around, but you can still encompass the work into some method to clean up your code

[smoky sinew]

the person who invoked the command

[slate swan]

mudkip helped me, thanks to you too 🫂

[ionic garden]

yeah that makes sense

[smoky sinew]

of what

[ionic garden]

i mean idk what an example would be in this scenario

it just gives the discord user that invoked the command- simple as that

[smoky sinew]

doing what with it

[ionic garden]

.

[smoky sinew]

that doesn't make sense

you can just print it, would that count as an example

it returns a union of Member or User

[slate swan]

this was just funny

love copilot

[ionic garden]

this is beautiful

[cinder tulip]

how can i make something like this??
i tried making something already but i got no idea on how to proceed (ignore that "group" i put there i was trying something lmao)

[hushed galleon]

do the choices have to be dynamically generated? if so, you'd want to add an autocomplete for that command option
decorator-style: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Command.autocomplete
transformer-style: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html#transformer
if not, hardcoding choices using the @app_commands.choices() decorator or one of its alternatives would be sufficient
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.choices

[exotic maple]

can someone help? please
i loop through a list of role ids (could be empty btw)
i get this error?
heres my code also:

this is also whats in the addroles list

I am also 100% that the role exists in the server

[smoky sinew]

what is server

wait

are you doing guild.get_role([role_id])?

that would explain why

[exotic maple]

whats the problem

[smoky sinew]

because you can't pass a list to get_role

[exotic maple]

this better?

[smoky sinew]

what is roleid

[exotic maple]

the variable above#

[smoky sinew]

what

that does not help

[exotic maple]

what will help

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

tell me what roleid is

[exotic maple]

im looping through the list addroles
each time it checks if it is not equal to None
if so then i want it to reply with the role and mention it

[smoky sinew]

yes but what is the value of roleid

[exotic maple]

the discord roles id that i want to mention

[smoky sinew]

lol

[exotic maple]

what

[smoky sinew]

just print it

[exotic maple]

i select the ID from the database depending on something

i dont know the actual id until the code runs

[smoky sinew]

then print the id when the code runs

[exotic maple]

as it will be a public bot

thats what im trying to do

it prints this variable

[smoky sinew]

just add print(roleid)

[exotic maple]

this is what it prints

the role id i want to mention

[smoky sinew]

then it should be fine

[exotic maple]

but it doesnt appear

[smoky sinew]

what is your full code

of the command

[smoky sinew]

@exotic maple do you still need help?

[sick sleet]

🙏its been staring me in the face this whole time.

pycord seems like its bad and nextcord--whatever nextcord is

[smoky sinew]

did you just reply to a message from july

[smoky sinew]

i would choose either discord.py or hikari

if you want you can just spin a wheel or something

[sick sleet]

I did, was stuck on this until I thought to search this chats history

[smoky sinew]

that's what i usually do when im stuck on something software development related

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[smoky sinew]

hikari does not have much documentation online apart from the official site

[smoky sinew]

#bot-commands

[dense jackal]

I would like to code something like that, does someone have a documentation or any ideas how?

When you type in, message deletes and is replaced by the embed with an autothread

[drifting arrow]

Anybody worked with mongodb before?

[smoky sinew]

make a predefined embed variable, and update the description with str.format when a message is sent in that channel

[smoky sinew]

i have

[dense jackal]

With ctx.content right?

[smoky sinew]

what is ctx, on_message takes in a Message object

[dense jackal]

Oh right, I used ctx on my modmail so idk

[drifting arrow]

Would you happen to know how I'd set my index type to be string?

playerids = db["playerids"]
playerids.create_index("steamid", unique=True)

Currently it sets the index type to Int64

[smoky sinew]

that's only a variable name, and it's not technically correct since it's not Context

[smoky sinew]

can you not just str() it?

[dense jackal]

[drifting arrow]

upon data insertion? I could... ;-; but was hoping instead of changing many lines I change 1 and badabingbadaboom.

[smoky sinew]

ah true

mongodb doesn't enforce data types does it

[drifting arrow]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

first time using it.

[smoky sinew]

i switched to sql 😭

[drifting arrow]

Trying to move from aiosqlite to a better database

since apparently aiosqlite doesnt handle high traffic well

[smoky sinew]

you could just use postgres and keep your existing queries

there are many different types of sql databases

[drifting arrow]

Tried postgresql first 😛

Friends system said no

[smoky sinew]

huh?

[drifting arrow]

idk it wouldnt work on my friends system and since he's in a different country I didnt wanna bother troubleshooting it lol

So he told me he already has a mongodb so I had to change to mongodb ;-;

it's great coz it means I get to change my code for a 3rd time 😄

anyway. ty anyway @smoky sinew

i'll just go change all my inserts to be str()

[vale wing]

Because they don't have postgres installed 💀

Dockerize the app and you won't get "dOesnT woRK on mY SYSteM" replies

[vale wing]

Not all queries tho, if they have INSERT OR REPLACE and whatever with INSERT OR, that construction doesn't exist in postgres. And they'd need to change datatypes for tables, at least for ids it is BIGINT in postgres

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

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

[slate swan]

hi

i fr ttributeError: 'ClientUser' object has no attribute 'token' tried to fix it so many times

[vale wing]

It basically doesn't have such attribute

And for what reason are you even making calls to discord API manually

!d discord.Guild.invites

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.invites

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

Returns a list of all active instant invites from the guild.

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

[vale wing]

What the hell does that code even do tho

[slate swan]

how can I fix it?

[vale wing]

To start with, you don't even need to do manual requests to discord API

[slate swan]

listen

I know what Im doing fr

[vale wing]

Lib's got coverage

[slate swan]

i just need to fix this attribute issue

[vale wing]

Bring token out to variable and use it

[vale wing]

Reinventing the wheel

[slate swan]

LOL

[slate swan]

ok so I have a response

but its not changing the vanity. ill just add some checks to help debug the issue

[smoky sinew]

isn’t it just bot.ws.token

[slate swan]

https://she.flew.lol/oRoTW.png Ok i fixed it by myself

[smoky sinew]

ok???

[slate swan]

plz fix this for me #1089091055057641532

[vale wing]

Just telling, you can use bot.fetch_invite and Guild.edit instead of making those requests 😃

            chap_name_arabic = chap_name_information["arabicname"]

            number_of_verses = len(chap_name_information["verses"])
``` what if `chap_name_information` will be False

then `chap_name` wont be defined and when you try to use this varriable later on it will throw this error

[unkempt mauve]

then what to do. the thing is when I added "chapter_autocompletion", this issue started but when I remove "chapter_autocompletion", it is all fine

is there issue with the index?

[slate swan]

add else and do something with chap_name when chap_name_information is false

if chap_name_information:
    ...
else:
    ...

[unkempt mauve]

the issue is the index for sure

[unkempt mauve]

I fixed it by adding int() to the variable

[drifting arrow]

has mongodb got an upsert statement?

[unkempt mauve]

you can but

you can do import nextcord

and most peoples do import nextcord

and me as well

[slate swan]

it worked thx

[glad cradle]

I'm not asking if it can be done, I'm just proving that this doesn't answer my question

[slate swan]

to @glad cradle too 🫂

[slate swan]

yeah i know it does not

import discord means nothing

[glad cradle]

lemme check pycord since he's hiding it

[slate swan]

but most likely its going to be d.py

[glad cradle]

pycord: hemlo

[slate swan]

so you are telling me he is using pycord and doesnt even know he is using pycord

[glad cradle]

ahahha yeah

[slate swan]

and how can i create options like this ?

in pycord

no idea

[glad cradle]

they're options with a default value so they're Optional

[slate swan]

huh ?

Optional meaning they are not required meaning required=False

my guess

ah

[shrewd apex]

no

they need a default argument

in the function signature

[slate swan]

and like this one (required) ?

[shrewd apex]

async def foo(inter: Interaction, arg: str = "") -> None:

arg is optional here

cuz it has a default value

[glad cradle]

but maybe the required False works too, lemme check pycord shit docs

[shrewd apex]

🤔

maybe

[glad cradle]

yeah https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/application_commands.html#discord.Option.required

[glad cradle]

seems like we're good at guessing

[slate swan]

[shrewd apex]

[slate swan]

and like this one (required) ?

this one is Channel type or something like that

could you give me code line or something like that to make my own options (required) ?

no i mean instead of saying its float type you say its channel type and it should display channel picker

but no idea what name Channel class have in pycord

[glad cradle]

let's see

[slate swan]

i don't want to pick channels, i want to make my own options :/

[glad cradle]

my ass is saying he need to pass abc.GuildChannel as type

[slate swan]

i don't want to pick channels, i want to make my own options :/

[slate swan]

but in your example there are channels

[slate swan]

yeah

i just meant that i need required options buddy :D

not many people here know pycord well if you want to receive help faster you should look into their support server: discord.gg/pycord

[glad cradle]

should be something like that

async def foo(ctx, channel: discord.Option(abc.GuildChannel, "desc", required=True), ...):
    ...

[slate swan]

ok tnks

[glad cradle]

why there are so many people using pycord 😭

[slate swan]

        id = ctx.author.id
        self.c6.execute("SELECT channelID FROM voiceChannel WHERE userID = ?", (id,))
        voice = self.c6.fetchone()
        if voice is None:
            await ctx.channel.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} You don't own a channel.")
        else:
            channelID = voice[0]
            channel = self.bot.get_channel(channelID)
            if channel is None:
                await ctx.channel.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} You are not connected to any voice channel.")
            else:
                role = ctx.guild.default_role
                await channel.set_permissions(role, connect=False)
                await ctx.channel.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} Voice chat locked! 🔒")
        self.conn6.commit()

[slate swan]

await c.execute(
    """CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS scheduled(

        post_type TEXT,
        time INTEGER,

[dull terrace]

[slate swan]

yes

the index name may be used already by sql

[dull terrace]

yeah i googled, it's reserved

[slate swan]

DOWN

could you possibly help me

[slate swan]

what do you mean by make this into a button

I want to make that into a button

when pressed it will do exactly that lock button

check if the user is the vc owner if so it will lock the channel from @everyone - default role

simple as that.

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py

here is how to do simple button in discord.py

I know how to do simple buttons, i'm having issue with making a button to do what i want.

i dont see any button in code you provided

I know as i told you, i want to convert the script into a button

So when pressed it will do what the script does.

I am using @voice.commands

and what voice varriable is?

what?

how you defined voice

;voice <command>

[smoky sinew]

what

[slate swan]

What are you trying to do?

[blissful badge]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message: discord.Message) -> None:
    print('Turlington has been mentioned.')
    if bot.mentioned_in(message):
            await message.channel.send(f"Hello! I am Turlington, say `?command` for more info on what I can do! If you are having any issues with my functions please tag ian `@blissful badge`.")

Hey everyone, tryna figure out why this isn't responding in chat.

Any ideas?

[smoky sinew]

where is this event?

[blissful badge]

Same as it is in the GH you have! Actually it's the first command after all the identifying stuff. Just stepped out for coffee will give line # in a sec.

[blissful badge]

@smoky sinew replaced the command at line #85 in the GitHub

[smoky sinew]

can you post it here

the code looks different from what you showed

[blissful badge]

The entire GH?

Yeah the code there is outdated, I am trying to replace it with the above but its not working

Let me update the GH

@smoky sinew ok its been updated with the new code
