[potent spear]

what's self.name.value?

[slate swan]

it the ID

[potent spear]

can you print it?

also
print(type(self.name.value))

[slate swan]

it say serverIDofOther say non self.name.value) say the ID

[potent spear]

print the type for me

[slate swan]

sure

[potent spear]

if it's a string, you'll have to convert it to an int

THEN the guild will be found

you should also check once you use get_guild if the guild isn't None (when you, for example, type an invalid ID)

[slate swan]

it print nothing werid

[potent spear]

nice

[slate swan]

soemthign wrong

[potent spear]

that means your code never gets executed

[slate swan]

        print(type(self.name.value))
        servernameofOther = self.name2.value
        serverIDofMain = interaction.guild.id
        serverIDofOther = bot.get_guild(self.name.value)
        serverOwnerIDofOther = bot.get_user(serverIDofMain.owner.id)
        serverOwnerIDofOther.send("Hi")```

[slate swan]

bruh i running it

[potent spear]

sending a message is async btw => await

[slate swan]

it even got me this error Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Ibrah\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\nextcord\ui\modal.py", line 290, in _scheduled_task await self.callback(interaction) File "c:\Users\Ibrah\Desktop\Code\Python\main.py", line 1541, in callback serverOwnerIDofOther = bot.get_user(serverIDofMain.owner.id) AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'owner'

[potent spear]

this is useless btw
serverOwnerIDofOther = bot.get_user(serverIDofMain.owner.id)

[slate swan]

ok!

[potent spear]

because

serverOwnerIDofOther = guild.owner

[slate swan]

of the id

of the server of i enter that id

[potent spear]

guild.owner is already a user object...

you don't have to get the user again... would be useless

[slate swan]

ik

id delete

now got get the owner id of the server that i enter there id

[potent spear]

try and see 🤷

[slate swan]

guild.owner is the guild owner of the server that i on rn

that i do the command

but i want owner of other server that i enter there id

got it?

[potent spear]

other_guild = bot.get_guild(int(self.name.value))```

[slate swan]

does other_guild just normal var right?

[potent spear]

yes, it's a better variable name than serverIDofOther lol

[slate swan]

ah

[slate swan]

this still get only guild

the server now i want get the owner of that server

[potent spear]

other_guild.owner

[slate swan]

ok i dead

let me try#

IT WORK

THANK YOU! ❤️

[potent spear]

good luck

[obtuse island]

sup guys, how do i import a game.py file into my discord bot? When i use import game, the game loads but the bot doesn't

[slate swan]

@potent spear sorry for the ping but i found this code and I think that this is what i should do:

```, 
then replace:

```await channel.set_permissions(ctx.guild.default_roles, send_messages = True, reason = f'{ctx.author.name} unlocked {channel.name} with --server')```

with
```await channel.set_permissions(ctx.guild.roles, send_messages = True, reason = f'{ctx.author.name} unlocked {channel.name} with --server')

[obtuse island]

for more context here is how it looks. you can see that the bot doesn't loads

[slate swan]

but what should i set the "guild" variable to

i just found a video on discord utils and idk what to set it to

[obtuse island]

@slate swan do you have a fix? sorry for ping

[slate swan]

nah sorry, i just started bro

[obtuse island]

oh mb

[potent spear]

Why did you get the role when you’re never using it?

[slate swan]

i did

[potent spear]

Show me where

[slate swan]

ctx.guild.roles

oh wait

was i not supposed to add the s

[potent spear]

What do you think that is? 🧠

[vocal snow]

Well it looks like you have an input() statement in your game.py file, which is blocking the rest of the script. Python code executes serially, so the code afterwards doesn't run until the prior instruction is completed.

[slate swan]

should i just replace ctx.guild.roles with "role" instead

[obtuse island]

can i send u both codes to fix it for me?

[potent spear]

Yup

[obtuse island]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/koruqerexu

here is the code

[vocal snow]

Well that doesn't change my answer

You have input() statements which must complete before the code after them runs

Are you actually trying to get input from the console or from discord?

[slate swan]

you can use await aioconsole.ainput() for a non blocking version

actually

that won't fix your problem mainly

you can run it in another thread

[obtuse island]

from discord bot

like an embed imput using reactions

[naive briar]

What

[obtuse island]

here is how it's supposed to look(inside should be the game)

[slate swan]

they can run the input function in another thread to prevent the block if I recall correctly

[vocal snow]

So why are you using input() and print()?

You know print() doesn't send a message to a discord channel right?

And input() doesn't read a message from a discord channel

[obtuse island]

i used print to display the gui of the bot, but it sends in console actually

[obtuse island]

so how do i create it to display like embed?

[vocal snow]

How new to python are you? I'm not sure if I'll be able to explain if you're a beginner...

[obtuse island]

im kinda new but i try to learn stuff

so you can try to explain

[slate swan]

u took this from chat gpt na get intents tho

[slate swan]

on message does right?

[slate swan]

guess u should learn discord.py not only python

[slate swan]

umm can u explain it to me tho?? lul

@vocal snow

!embed

umm typing finally

[vocal snow]

when you want to send a message to discord, you have to make an API Call;
An HTTP POST request to the /channels/{channel.id}/messages endpoint

In discord.py, this is abstracted to the Messageable.send method

!d discord.abc.Messageable.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.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**.

[vocal snow]

when you use print(), it will print to the program's stdout (or a file, if specified via the file kwarg)

so there's a very big difference between the two, and they absolutely cannot be substituted for each other

[slate swan]

y ic

[slate swan]

we can use it right?

i have another question how u learned discord.py?

from docs??

[vocal snow]

as well as reading the source

[slate swan]

bruh u typed this for so long breh??

[slate swan]

wdym??

[vocal snow]

I was wondering how to answer it, since I haven't really "learned" discord.py

[vocal snow]

Reading the source code: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

[slate swan]

heh

[slate swan]

how does it work now

cuz i didnt learn it actually at some extent

@vocal snowbro listen how am i supposed to learn it cuz in docs also it gets ended i dont get what next i am suppose dto do

sry for continous pings

[vocal snow]

what do you want your bot to do?

[shrewd apex]

[shrewd apex]

take control of the world

[vocal snow]

and reading the docs won't help if you don't understand them;
you should make sure you understand intermediate level python first

[slate swan]

umm am actully making a bot like for anime purpose like there will be some boss fights to earn coins or something like that teaming up with other charachters

[vocal snow]

😳

[slate swan]

ya i do

lol

i have more ideas but am lazy to type it tho

lol

[vocal snow]

it's important you have a clear understanding of you want your bot to work

How does a player start playing the game?

Do they use a slash command? Maybe click a button?

And then, where are you going to store all the player data? Which database will you use

[slate swan]

actually i didnt had idea of it at first glance

[slate swan]

dk

lol

[vocal snow]

There's a lot of planning that needs to be done before the actual coding happens

[slate swan]

@shrewd apexu made a pokemon bot?

[shrewd apex]

umm yea?

[vocal snow]

(The best pokemon bot)

[slate swan]

how check if a var is int

[slate swan]

but i actually have it tho

[shrewd apex]

totally not

[slate swan]

lol

[vocal snow]

isinstance; ```py
if isinstance(var, int):
...

[naive briar]

!d isintance

[unkempt canyon]

Nah.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

hm

[vocal snow]

typo

[naive briar]

🧐

[vocal snow]

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

isinstance(object, classinfo)```
Return `True` if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument, or of a (direct, indirect, or [virtual](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class)) subclass thereof. If *object* is not an object of the given type, the function always returns `False`. If *classinfo* is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other such tuples) or a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union) of multiple types, return `True` if *object* is an instance of any of the types. If *classinfo* is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") exception is raised. [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") may not be raised for an invalid type if an earlier check succeeds.

Changed in version 3.10: *classinfo* can be a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union).

Similar names: 2to3fixer.isinstance

[slate swan]

wasnt it like var (type)

lol

[vocal snow]

no

[slate swan]

oh lol

[tacit sandal]

But that's not good

[shrewd apex]

except the gifs i made pr not accepted yet tho

[slate swan]

wht id pr tho lul.

[tacit sandal]

U must give credit

[slate swan]

oh

[shrewd apex]

it was open sourced

[tacit sandal]

Oh whatever but I think it's better

[shrewd apex]

i didnt take ones from artists and stuff mostly the open sourced ones like showdown

[slate swan]

@shrewd apexdid u learned discord.py??

[shrewd apex]

plus it not economised

[slate swan]

u did it all alone?

[shrewd apex]

the bot ur asking me about is what i used to learn python

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[slate swan]

heh didnt get it

sry for consuming so much of ur time tho

[shrewd apex]

np i am free rn

[slate swan]

i actually didnt get it can explain pls

[shrewd apex]

explain what?

[slate swan]

this line

[shrewd apex]

it literally means what is written i used the bot as my project to learn python

[slate swan]

oh but did u first took a pyhton course or just begun it

[shrewd apex]

i did a few smol projects but nothing too big

[slate swan]

cuz i am a game dev but came on discord just for experience

[shrewd apex]

just dived in mostly

[slate swan]

means u learned in the match right?

[shrewd apex]

aight

[slate swan]

damn

[shrewd apex]

not recommended tho

[slate swan]

lol

[shrewd apex]

i learnt stuff in all the wrong order

[shrewd apex]

12th

[slate swan]

oh ic

@shrewd apexthnx for giving me ur time

hello, i am currently doing a captcha verification, what is the most efficient way to check like every 0.2, 0.3 seconds if the captcha is expired while being able to guess and complete the captcha

[shrewd apex]

views

add a timeout

add a button and modal and u good to go

[slate swan]

Hello! I can provide some general advice on how to efficiently check for captcha expiration while completing the captcha.

First, it's important to understand how captcha expiration works. Captchas typically have a time limit after which they expire and become invalid. This time limit is usually set by the website or service that is using the captcha.

To check for captcha expiration, you can use a timer function that runs every 0.2 or 0.3 seconds. This function should check the time elapsed since the captcha was first displayed and compare it to the captcha expiration time limit. If the time elapsed is greater than the time limit, then the captcha has expired and you should stop any further attempts to complete it.

To guess and complete the captcha efficiently, you can use automated tools like captcha solving services or machine learning models that are specifically designed to recognize and solve captchas. These tools can significantly reduce the time and effort required to complete a captcha. However, it's important to note that using automated tools to bypass captchas without permission is generally considered unethical and may be illegal in some jurisdictions.

Alternatively, you can try to manually solve the captcha by following the instructions provided, such as identifying certain objects or characters in an image. This can be time-consuming, but it's a legitimate way to complete the captcha without violating any rules or laws.

Overall, the key to efficiently checking for captcha expiration while completing the captcha is to use a timer function to monitor the time elapsed and to use automated tools or manual methods to complete the captcha as quickly and accurately as possible.

[fading marlin]

the latter

[slate swan]

heh?

are we supposed to use intents.message_content or intents.messages??

@slate swan

lol sry for ping

help?

pls

[slate swan]

those are two different intents depends what you need

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

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

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

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

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

New in version 1.5.

[slate swan]

read about them here what they add\

[slate swan]

bruh tell na thts too less

plss

oof

?

i told you go to the docs i sent and read what they add and you decide what you need

nothing there to read

[slate swan]

i didnt found anything i tried a lot really

[hushed galleon]

there is plenty there to read

[slate swan]

really just scroll a bit

not sleeping is hard for but still i was not sleeping for 2 days

[slate swan]

where u find this

i didnt actually found it anywhere

[slate swan]

here

[hushed galleon]

you see this blue text here, you can click it to go to the doc page

[slate swan]

i did

how to take ss?

[slate swan]

ic

[hushed galleon]

on windows, shift+windows key+S

[slate swan]

ya on windowsa

ty

[hushed galleon]

if you just want a summary, messages is how your bot knows when a message was sent in real time, while message_content is needed to access the text sent in that message (and is a privileged intent so it needs to be enabled in the dev portal beforehand)

addendum: fetching messages via the API (i.e. not real-time) will also return no content if message content isnt enabled in the dev portal

[slate swan]

didnt got

bruh wht are these words

[hushed galleon]

​

[hushed galleon]

this is what your bot sees if you have messages enabled but not message_content (with some exceptions listed in the documentation)

[slate swan]

:huh:

[hushed galleon]

in other words you know when the message was sent, where it was sent, and who sent it, but not what was sent

[slate swan]

we use message content for it??

[hushed galleon]

yes

[slate swan]

ic

ty

@hushed galleonsry for ping but pls help is there anything wrong

[hushed galleon]

what did your bot respond with?

[slate swan]

it was supposed to send that u choosed this or that

but it dosent

and now it dosent send the dm as well sed

[wind radish]

wouldnt this be easier to use as a command instead of on_message ?

[slate swan]

heh?

[slate swan]

it was not sending message tht way either

[wind radish]

how is the interaction triggered? with !team up?

[slate swan]

so i gone for it

[slate swan]

y

a

u mean prefix right?

[hushed galleon]

minor pointer that message content isnt enabled so you're relying on one of the three exceptions for receiving message content, but regardless capitalize() likely isnt doing what you expect it to do

[slate swan]

heh am i supposed to add message content intent as well

?/

..

[hushed galleon]

if you need to receive message content outside of the exceptions, for example to recognize "!team up" when someone sends it inside a server, sure

!e as for capitalize(), here's what that looks like: py name = "Eren Yeager" content = "eren yeager" capitalized = content.capitalize() print(capitalized, "vs", name)

[unkempt canyon]

@hushed galleon :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

Eren yeager vs Eren Yeager

[hushed galleon]

^ it doesnt produce the same string so your check isnt able to match those names correctly

[slate swan]

heh?

[slate swan]

one is capital one is small

[hushed galleon]

right, which means they are not equal strings, so when your check tries to do msg.content.capitalize() in pokemon_list, it will always return False

[slate swan]

i did changed it

[hushed galleon]

whats done more commonly for case-insensitive comparisons is lowercasing both strings, as its simpler to understand: ```py

items = ["cookies", "cream", "sauce"]
x = "CoOkiEs"
x.lower() in items
True```

[hushed galleon]

the timeout you mean? sure that seems fine

[slate swan]

but still not working tho

[hushed galleon]

you havent solved this though

[slate swan]

i have to change capitalize to lower right?

[hushed galleon]

and make the strings in your list lowercase too

[slate swan]

k doing it in 1m

this??

@hushed galleonsry for so much pings

it is working like this lol

[paper sluice]

do you have multiple instances of the bot running?

[slate swan]

ya

[paper sluice]

thats why the bot is sending multiple messages for one command

[slate swan]

ic

[slate swan]

wait one sec

but the bot is only taking message in dms

not on servers tho

thegamercracks help

[glad cradle]

[slate swan]

i did it tho

[hushed galleon]

what ryuga said, you probably have multiple versions of your bot running

[slate swan]

ya tht work is done

it is workin correctly now but i want to make the start command more cool tho so how can i lol (i know u are annyoed from me but i cant help it either)

[odd mango]

use embeds and emotes

[slate swan]

didnt get it

[odd mango]

checkout discord.Embed

[slate swan]

from where?

[odd mango]

docs

[slate swan]

Oof

[slate swan]

its same as hell

[odd mango]

it's very organized if you ask me, alternatively you can just google "how to make an embed in discord.py" and check out some readymade example explanation

[slate swan]

i am a baka so for me its hard and thnku for help

i would google it then

[odd mango]

also the bot code template you're using is quite outdated, read the docs or some gist to get a better and subclassed one

[slate swan]

heh?

again didnt got

[odd mango]

to put it simply, you're just trying to put everything in one file and not using classes to make cogs.
subclassing the bot is the best method

[slate swan]

man when ppl type so much for me i actually feel awful

[slate swan]

bruh what is this

[odd mango]

it'll also get messy with over 10 commands since it'll already reach like 600ish lines

[slate swan]

i should sleep i guess my eyes are burning cuz i didnt slep for 2day tho

[slate swan]

thnks for ur time sir

[odd mango]

actually, just decorate the feedback message using emotes and embeds.

[odd mango]

what are you using? context?

[slate swan]

nop

Show code

[odd mango]

should be message.channel.send(embed=embed) according to your code

[slate swan]

@slate swan

!d discord.Message.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.channel

The TextChannel or Thread that the message was sent from. Could be a DMChannel or GroupChannel if it’s a private message.

[odd mango]

LOL do not do discord.Embed(...)

[slate swan]

ooofoofoofofoofffff

You are not supposed to put that Dots there

[odd mango]

feed in its params

[slate swan]

lol

[cloud dawn]

It was an example lol

[slate swan]

Its just a placeholder to you to put params

oof

i just copied and pasted

oof

[odd mango]

no no look here

these all are params

[slate swan]

params?

[odd mango]

oh*

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44862112/how-can-i-send-an-embed-via-my-discord-bot-w-python

[slate swan]

still wht to do abt the channel thing

Look at the first answer there is an example maybe you will understand it with it

not defined

[slate swan]

i am supposed to click on the link?

[odd mango]

await message.channel.send(embed=embed) #for sending it in channel
await message.author.send(embed=embed) #for sending it in dms

[slate swan]

yeah? Its stack

stackoverflow

You know it right

am actually feeling so awful

[slate swan]

wht if i say no i am still a 6th grader tho

but i want to learn

[odd mango]

UHHH violation of ToS

[slate swan]

heh?

[odd mango]

discord is a 13+ app 🚶‍♂️

[slate swan]

bruh

k i am 8th grader then

lul

13 now

[odd mango]

lmao wtf

[slate swan]

"Ignoring exception in on_message" wht is this

[odd mango]

full traceback

[slate swan]

It means that there was error in on message event

hhuh?

[slate swan]

ic

!traceback

[unkempt canyon]

Traceback

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.
While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "my_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    add_three("6")
  File "my_file.py", line 2, in add_three
    a = num + 3
        ~~~~^~~
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

If the traceback is long, use our pastebin.

[slate swan]

bro i actually did it

@slate swansry for ping

@odd mangosry for ping

sry for wasting ur time again

[odd mango]

👍

[slate swan]

damn i just came back

@odd mangousing images from official webs in dc is not wrong right

[odd mango]

its not

you can use any image you want

[slate swan]

ic

[odd mango]

ofcousre unless it violates terms of service of the image provider or discord

[slate swan]

heh?

can i ask a question?@odd mango

is it day or night at ur place?

[odd mango]

it's night

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=None, color=None, title=None, type='rich', url=None, description=None, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

New in version 2.0...

[slate swan]

ty

capital letters are a thing

[slate swan]

huh?

Embed must be with capital letter

[slate swan]

all capital?

[slate swan]

do you see it being all capital here

[slate swan]

no

[odd mango]

python is case sensitive, so the documentation is made according to it, and accessed likewise via this bot

[slate swan]

umm in the embed can i add user avtar as well?

[odd mango]

yeah

[slate swan]

oh

!d discord.Embed.set_author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_author

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

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

[odd mango]

message.author.avatar_url iirc

[slate swan]

hello, i am gettng this error when import from nextcord.ext import menu

ImportError: cannot import name 'menus' from 'nextcord.ext' (unknown location)

[odd mango]

did you do from nextcord.ext import menu?

[slate swan]

yeah

no, i imported "menus"

[odd mango]

i think they want thumbnail
embed.set_thumbnail(url=message.author.avatar_url)

[slate swan]

there is no such thing like menus in nextcord

[vagrant knot]

hello all, somebody will and can help me with some python. it's for in my discord server to make a command

[odd mango]

try from nextcord.ext import menu, idk about nextcord

[slate swan]

yeah thats more like it i think i made a typo

still same error but with "menu" now

[slate swan]

what are you trying to do?

[odd mango]

then nextcord.ext does not have menu

[slate swan]

cause there is no such thing in nextcord

i belive it was in nextcord ages ago

[odd mango]

try from nextcord.ext import menus

[odd mango]

i think there is

[slate swan]

really? there should be

[slate swan]

doesnt work too

[odd mango]

check the docs then

[slate swan]

i was using it ages ago but i belive it was removed

well ill ask again

what are you trying to do @slate swan

so is it in dpy now?

[odd mango]

could be, i dont know anyways lol

[slate swan]

i am trying to do a paginated embed for my warnings

so if there are e.g more than 5 results, it should create another embed with new fields

mhm i see

can you tell me how to start cuz i have no idea

looks like it is an external package now https://github.com/nextcord/nextcord-ext-menus

[odd mango]

i guess the docs are not updated then, because it's there https://menus.docs.nextcord.dev/en/stable/ext/menus/pagination_examples/

[slate swan]

oh right thanks

[odd mango]

that too for stable version

[slate swan]

those are not nextcord doc

those are the external package docs

[odd mango]

whaaa 😂

[slate swan]

https://docs.nextcord.dev/en/stable/

here are nextcord docs

[odd mango]

yeah its not there

[slate swan]

i will try it now

create a new embed and edit the message, you dont edit the embed, you edit the message

[left dew]

huh?

work with this for now

[odd mango]

you are still editing the embed

you need to edit discord.Message NOT discord.Embed

how do i get the message

[odd mango]

just store it in a var

Sorry but what?

[odd mango]

they are trying to edit the message

[cloud dawn]

Okay but time.sleep(1)

Why not use the build in datetime system

yeah @left dew refer to it, i wouldn't recommend using time.sleep() and editing ever second either

save some api calls

[cloud dawn]

<t:1680464096:R>

[left dew]

oh

[slate swan]

never use time.sleep in discord bot use await asyncio.sleep(1) instead

[left dew]

okay

[slate swan]

!d asyncio.sleep

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.sleep

coroutine asyncio.sleep(delay, result=None)```
Block for *delay* seconds.

If *result* is provided, it is returned to the caller when the coroutine completes.

`sleep()` always suspends the current task, allowing other tasks to run.

Setting the delay to 0 provides an optimized path to allow other tasks to run. This can be used by long-running functions to avoid blocking the event loop for the full duration of the function call.

Example of coroutine displaying the current date every second for 5 seconds:

how do I tell a bot to use slash commands?

like do I need to import something and stuff

[potent spear]

you change your code...

[cloud dawn]

@unkempt canyon use slash commands

[potent spear]

those are called app_commands

[cloud dawn]

@unkempt canyon Wait does it repeat anything i say?

hmm

[potent spear]

it's not a parrot

[tight fog]

like for this, how do I change it to use slash commands instead of putting !

@dc.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == dc.user:
        return

    elif message.content.startswith('!hello'):
        await message.channel.send('Hello!')

i keep on getting this code when trying to pass in my token

i formatted my token as TOKEN=x , x = token value

and i didn't really use x i am just using that as an example

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='!', intents=intents)
@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("We have logged in as {0.user}".format(client))

  if message.author == client.user:
    return
  if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello my people')

client.run(os.environ['TOKEN'])```

this was my code

[blazing flint]

lol

its the token

your token is incorrect

[slate swan]

you dont load the environment varriables

[unkempt canyon]

Using .env files in Python

.env (dotenv) files are a type of file commonly used for storing application secrets and variables, for example API tokens and URLs, although they may also be used for storing other configurable values. While they are commonly used for storing secrets, at a high level their purpose is to load environment variables into a program.

Dotenv files are especially suited for storing secrets as they are a key-value store in a file, which can be easily loaded in most programming languages and ignored by version control systems like Git with a single entry in a .gitignore file.

In python you can use dotenv files with the python-dotenv module from PyPI, which can be installed with pip install python-dotenv. To use dotenv files you'll first need a file called .env, with content such as the following:

TOKEN=a00418c85bff087b49f23923efe40aa5

Next, in your main Python file, you need to load the environment variables from the dotenv file you just created:

from dotenv import load_dotenv()

load_dotenv(".env")

The variables from the file have now been loaded into your programs environment, and you can access them using os.getenv() anywhere in your program, like this:

from os import getenv

my_token = getenv("TOKEN")

For further reading about tokens and secrets, please read this explanation.

ty

[tight fog]

what is a decorator

ugh

see this is why I hate learning python and stuff because it literally consumes your whole day by waiting for hours and hours to get a response

what is arg

@bot.command(name='list')
async def _list(ctx, arg):
    pass

[thin raft]

an argument

[tight fog]

which is

[thin raft]

wdym

[unkempt canyon]

Parameters vs. arguments

A parameter is a variable defined in a function signature (the line with def in it), while arguments are objects passed to a function call.

def square(n): # n is the parameter
    return n*n

print(square(5)) # 5 is the argument

Note that 5 is the argument passed to square, but square(5) in its entirety is the argument passed to print

[tight fog]

So parameter is like a variable to build a function and argument is an actual value used in the function

[unkempt canyon]

Return statement

A value created inside a function can't be used outside of it unless you return it.

Consider the following function:

def square(n):
    return n * n

If we wanted to store 5 squared in a variable called x, we would do:
x = square(5). x would now equal 25.

Common Mistakes

>>> def square(n):
...     n * n  # calculates then throws away, returns None
...
>>> x = square(5)
>>> print(x)
None
>>> def square(n):
...     print(n * n)  # calculates and prints, then throws away and returns None
...
>>> x = square(5)
25
>>> print(x)
None

Things to note
• print() and return do not accomplish the same thing. print() will show the value, and then it will be gone.
• A function will return None if it ends without a return statement.
• When you want to print a value from a function, it's best to return the value and print the function call instead, like print(square(5)).

Print and return

Here's a handy animation demonstrating how print and return differ in behavior.

See also: /tag return

[thin raft]

check this gif

[tight fog]

how come the 5 went to x

how does the code know to do that

oh

the function is my_function

then he reuses it down below and it references the earlier lines on what to do

ok that makes sense

so return just tells it to use the output

[unkempt canyon]

Concurrency in Python

Python provides the ability to run multiple tasks and coroutines simultaneously with the use of the asyncio library, which is included in the Python standard library.

This works by running these coroutines in an event loop, where the context of the running coroutine switches periodically to allow all other coroutines to run, thus giving the appearance of running at the same time. This is different to using threads or processes in that all code runs in the main process and thread, although it is possible to run coroutines in other threads.

To call an async function we can either await it, or run it in an event loop which we get from asyncio.

To create a coroutine that can be used with asyncio we need to define a function using the async keyword:

async def main():
    await something_awaitable()

Which means we can call await something_awaitable() directly from within the function. If this were a non-async function, it would raise the exception SyntaxError: 'await' outside async function

To run the top level async function from outside the event loop we need to use asyncio.run(), like this:

import asyncio

async def main():
    await something_awaitable()

asyncio.run(main())

Note that in the asyncio.run(), where we appear to be calling main(), this does not execute the code in main. Rather, it creates and returns a new coroutine object (i.e main() is not main()) which is then handled and run by the event loop via asyncio.run().

To learn more about asyncio and its use, see the asyncio documentation.

[tight fog]

what does * do

[unkempt canyon]

Pythonic way of iterating over ordered collections

Iterating over range(len(...)) is a common approach to accessing each item in an ordered collection.

for i in range(len(my_list)):
    do_something(my_list[i])

The pythonic syntax is much simpler, and is guaranteed to produce elements in the same order:

for item in my_list:
    do_something(item)

Python has other solutions for cases when the index itself might be needed. To get the element at the same index from two or more lists, use zip. To get both the index and the element at that index, use enumerate.

alright found it, * allows for variable number of arguments

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_text\_channel

await create_text_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, news=False, position=..., topic=..., slowmode_delay=..., nsfw=..., overwrites=..., ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") for the guild.

Note that you must have [`manage_channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_channels "discord.Permissions.manage_channels") to create the channel.

The `overwrites` parameter can be used to create a ‘secret’ channel upon creation. This parameter expects a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.11)") of overwrites with the target (either a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")) as the key and a [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite") as the value.

Note

Creating a channel of a specified position will not update the position of other channels to follow suit. A follow-up call to [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel.edit "discord.TextChannel.edit") will be required to update the position of the channel in the channel list...

i fix it!

thx btw

[smoky sinew]

what

then how would it run the send method

[jolly basalt]

can someone give me a discord.ext.commands.MinimalHelpCommand example please

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.ext.commands.MinimalHelpCommand

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.MinimalHelpCommand

class discord.ext.commands.MinimalHelpCommand(*args, **kwargs)```
An implementation of a help command with minimal output.

This inherits from [`HelpCommand`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand "discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand").

[shrewd fjord]

Its better to make your own help command instead

[smoky sinew]

https://gist.github.com/InterStella0/b78488fb28cadf279dfd3164b9f0cf96

[jolly basalt]

ok tysm

[smoky sinew]

it's mostly focused on HelpCommand though

[jolly basalt]

yeah ill try to read and understand ig

[slate swan]

guys why message.value not working in @bot.event async def on_message(message): await bot.process_commands(message)

[shrewd fjord]

Wdym?

!d discord.Message.content

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.content

The actual contents of the message. If Intents.message_content is not enabled this will always be an empty string unless the bot is mentioned or the message is a direct message.

[smoky sinew]

message.value

[unkempt mauve]

Guys what is the function for response to mention?

[slate swan]

Can I set the footer of an embed to a timestamp? eg. <t:1680499624:R>

[mighty sun]

Hello everyone, I would like to link two projects discord bot but I can't do it... possible to help me if you like? I can send it to you omplet I have all prepared

[vale wing]

You can do that by embedding API server into each

[vale wing]

It's not footer, it's separate part

!d discord.Embed.timestamp

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.timestamp

The timestamp of the embed content. This is an aware datetime. If a naive datetime is passed, it is converted to an aware datetime with the local timezone.

[slate swan]

Will it show up in the footers area?

[vale wing]

You can set it in the constructor

[vale wing]

Yeah

[slate swan]

so it'd be the epoch as a string or what? For the timestamp

[vale wing]

datetime.datetime object

[slate swan]

it converts it itself?

[vale wing]

From what

Do you want current time or specific

[slate swan]

I'd like it to be a relative timestamp of when the embed was sent

[vale wing]

Yeah that's current time

[slate swan]

Eg. Sent <t:1680499624:R>

[vale wing]

!e ```py
from datetime import datetime

print(datetime.now())```

my error :

!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.

[mighty sun]

just add intent ?

and i try ?

[slate swan]

Can it send relative timestamp like the ".. minutes ago"

[vale wing]

Embed timestamps don't support that

[slate swan]

what areas do?

[naive briar]

Anywhere that supports formatting 🤷

[vale wing]

I believe embed fields values/description and regular messages

first learn the thing u want to aim for

bruh this keirara guy typing so much

So the voice state intents give access to the member.voice,
but... you can't actually account for the time someone actually talks w/ these intents right...?
or is there a package I can use?
This would be for a custom function to add xp to user for each (x-amount-of-time) they talk...

[slate swan]

bruh???

[vocal snow]

you are able to receive voice data, however discord.py does not have builtin support for it yet

I believe Py-cord does, but I cannot attest to how stable it is

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/1094

[slate swan]

ty!

[vocal snow]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/pull/9288 This one seems a bit more active too

[slate swan]

much appreciated 🙂

so can on_interaction classify as a cog listener?

[naive briar]

An event

[slate swan]

which would be like on_voice_state_update, which is an event.
so... technically yes...?

[shrewd apex]

dont think there is an event for that

[shrewd apex]

easiest way would be to check for user voice States wether they are muted or not i am not sure if there is a state if they are speaking but if it's there u can use it

maybe make a cache with userid and timestamp and check for updates then add xp

[slate swan]

this is in the gateway section... so that's why i'm assuming that i could use it as a cog listener.

[slate swan]

true... cause that's one of the params.

[radiant bough]

You forgot to pass the intents

[shrewd apex]

oh nice yeah u can use that then

[slate swan]

Is there no way to get the avatar url to default profile pictures?

[vocal snow]

!d discord.User.display_avatar

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.display\_avatar

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

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

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

So I can just change all of them to that I guess

it's an asset so it would be user.display_avatar.url to get the url i believe.

self.bot.user.avatar.url gets the bot's avatar url.

ignore the blank names and values I removed it when i sent code

invoker=self.context.author.id

is why im getting

[golden portal]

the issue is self.bot HelpCommand doesnt have bot attribute, get your bot instance from context, self.context.bot

wait

ur right i knew that

how does this not return "false" ?

but if I put everything at True it returns True

im stuck here: I want to add someone to a list when he is: not muted, not deafened and not in an afk channel
what it rn does is following: it adds someone who is muted and deafened

[naive briar]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

The or-gotcha

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

# Incorrect...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[naive briar]

Not the same operator, but the same concept

[tulip frigate]

let me try that, one second

[slate swan]

How do i know where to add on code to a already existing code.

[tulip frigate]

finally man thank you so much @naive briar

[vale wing]

Your expression is basically this

if (mute) and (deaf) and (afk == True)

You need to use all

if all(v == True for v in (mute, deaf, afk))

[tulip frigate]

makes sense, didnt know this, thanks!

[vocal snow]

you can just do ```py
if all((mute, deaf, afk)):

[vale wing]

Assuming those variables are strictly bools yes

[vocal snow]

they don't need to be

!d all

[unkempt canyon]

all

all(iterable)```
Return `True` if all elements of the *iterable* are true (or if the iterable is empty). Equivalent to:

```py
def all(iterable):
    for element in iterable:
        if not element:
            return False
    return True

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

How do I use a local image file for an embed image?
Discord special-cases uploading an image attachment and using it within an embed so that it will not display separately, but instead in the embed’s thumbnail, image, footer or author icon.

To do so, upload the image normally with abc.Messageable.send(), and set the embed’s image URL to attachment://image.png, where image.png is the filename of the image you will send.

Quick example:

content_copy
file = discord.File("path/to/my/image.png", filename="image.png")
embed = discord.Embed()
embed.set_image(url="attachment://image.png")
await channel.send(file=file, embed=embed)

[slate swan]

but there image.png

[vocal snow]

their filename is image.png

[slate swan]

but my file name is diff na?

[vocal snow]

ok

so change the code so it uses your filename

[slate swan]

huh?

[slate swan]

am i supposed to only change filename not path or anything?

[vocal snow]

of course you have to change the path

[slate swan]

like attachment:/

[slate swan]

and attachment thing?
