How are you syncing the CommandTree?

[twilit grotto]

importing a specific function like that, you dont have to do random.randint, just do randint(1-100)

[raw quail]

hmm.. okay i will look for docs more

[raw quail]

i haven't try yet i will try it now thank you

[vivid axle]

oh yeah

you need to sync the commands right

i think

@raw quail https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html?highlight=commands bot tree sync#my-bot-s-commands-are-not-showing-up

that should help

[raw quail]

ohhhhhhh

thank you so much! i was looking for that

[uneven imp]

How can I host my bot for free

[vivid axle]

i use diva hosting

[slate swan]

heyy

i have to code a bot so where i have to code

i am doing coding at replit

@quick flare

[quick flare]

idk bout that thinks

[tired notch]

how do i disable a button after clicking this is what i tried so far

class Chooser(View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

    @button(label="1", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple)
    async def chooser(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button_object: Button):
        button_object.disabled = True
        button_object.label = "DISABLED"
        await interaction.response.send_message("You picked 1")

    @button(label="2", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def chooser2(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button_object: Button):
        button_object.disabled = True
        button_object.label = "DISABLED"
        await interaction.response.send_message("You picked 2")```

[uneven imp]

Bro

[hushed galleon]

you'll need to edit the message passing your view to refresh it, i.e. ```py
await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)

If you already responded with edit_message()/defer():

await interaction.edit_original_message(view=self)

If you responded with send_message():

await interaction.message.edit(view=self)```

[tired notch]

whats the difference between the 3

[hushed galleon]

they use different API methods and only work in certain situations

[tired notch]

oh i get it the last one is only if you sended another message right

and you want to edit the button on that one

[hushed galleon]

uhh the other way, if you use send_message() then discord's concept of "original response" refers to your new message, rather than the message that your interaction came from

also i screwed up edit_original_message yet again, dpy 2.0 changed it to edit_original_response

[tired notch]

oh ok thank you

whats defer

[hushed galleon]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.defer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.defer

await defer(*, ephemeral=False, thinking=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Defers the interaction response.

This is typically used when the interaction is acknowledged and a secondary action will be done later.

This is only supported with the following interaction types...

[hushed galleon]

you give a response so discord doesnt tell the user that your bot failed to respond, but it doesnt actually send any message

[tired notch]

ok thanks

[hushed galleon]

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.

[potent spear]

spot the typo in line 15 too (that'll be your next issue)

[slate swan]

whay should i do

in that line?

[potent spear]

fix your errors one by one... you'll see

worry about intents first ^

[slate swan]

what parameter should we give for intents?

ah got it

[slate swan]

helo here plzzzz

u just need to type

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

[slate swan]

wait

inside the parenthesis type intents=discord.Intents.default()

[potent spear]

you'll still want to enable the message_content intent too though, there's literally a codeblock of it from the bot^

[slate swan]

isn't it capital C?

Client*

[potent spear]

remove line 13 for now...

you're just mixing up commands.Bot and discord.Client

[vivid axle]

Not replit 😢

[potent spear]

no uppercase

[slate swan]

?

yea it's lowercase maybe cause u didn't import the modules properly

idk i haven't created a discord bot

[vocal snow]

I would really recommend learning python

[potent spear]

you're guessing at this point.
some pointer: you should have some basic python knowledge before starting to make a bot like this

line 14, you're just creating a bot, but not storing it in a variable...

[vivid axle]

[potent spear]

you lack the knowledge between an instance of a class and a class itself

hence the Client vs client

[slate swan]

are u telling me?

[potent spear]

you're also creating an intents variable which you're never using

[potent spear]

no, the replit hoster
but you were guessing a fix for him too though

[slate swan]

yea i never made a discord bot

so i thought he made a mistake in the spelling or something

but why is the client thingy undefined

import problem?

[vocal snow]

Because it isn't defined anywhere

[potent spear]

because he never defined the client... 🧠
or in other words
there's nowhere a line to be seen where a variable named client is defined

[vivid axle]

Lol

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

and there's no need to be laughing

[potent spear]

I get that you just want to make something asap and worry about what it means later, but having some fundamentals will help loads

[vivid axle]

I ain’t laughing bud

I said lol

[slate swan]

big brain

[potent spear]

5 mins creating & 2 hours debugging <<< 1 hour creating, 5 mins debugging

if you know what you wrote, it's easier to understand issues later

I've learned it the bad way too though (learned python while creating a bot, when it was recommended to have intermediate python knowledge before starting out, which I didn't have)
do as I say, not as I do

[meager chasm]

Python's simple syntax results in people taking it for granted and thinking they can mash random code together and it will work fine

[potent spear]

which works, until it doesn't

[slate swan]

if he did copy the things properly it would have worked

i searched it up

he didn't even copy the code properly

[potent spear]

not through AI I hope

[meager chasm]

It would've worked till he wanted to add his own unique features

[slate swan]

yea right

helpppp

@pallid turtle

[pallid turtle]

I am not in a position to help you.

[slate swan]

oh noo

[slate swan]

@slate swanhelp me plzz

[slate swan]

@potent spear

You should learn basics first

[slate swan]

-_-

i haven't coded a discord bot yet

but what it's saying is

u r supposed to pass in a parameter for an argument

the argument is intents

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

type this

U should learn how this whole thing works

this is just copying code

[potent spear]

#discord-bots message

[potent spear]

this is kind of a solution, not completely

[slate swan]

i just copied it i haven't really learnt anything about the discord.py module

I just know u need to pass in some parameter

[vocal snow]

Python has a simple syntax but that doesn't mean it's easy. Everyone here has learned the basics, unfortunately there are no shortcuts to that

[slate swan]

umm.... can someone tell me wht should i do next after creating a strt command for my bot????

[slate swan]

tf u doing bruh

[slate swan]

@vocal snow lol sry for ping

@slate swan

[glad cradle]

mh what

[slate swan]

am back btw

[slate swan]

heh i typed it tho

[slate swan]

like after making a strt command wht should i do next..

use your fantasy

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

help me

[slate swan]

can i ask why u ignoring meh?

[slate swan]

what i have to ?

[slate swan]

you have to read it at first

[slate swan]

click

on the link

[slate swan]

where is the link

[slate swan]

donno but read this tht would help i guess@slate swan

[slate swan]

i reead

[slate swan]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

now do as it says

[slate swan]

wait

[little surge]

Where do I begin coding a bot

[slate swan]

waiting......

[slate swan]

do you know python basics at least?

[slate swan]

start with a hello message i guess

[little surge]

yeah

[slate swan]

@little surge

[slate swan]

damn u just copy pasted

[slate swan]

lmao

[little surge]

ight

[slate swan]

ye

[little surge]

but

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/quickstart.html
https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples

i would suggest going through that links and trying to play with the code see what it changes thats how you learn

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

[little surge]

ight

[slate swan]

this i the true form which i use

[slate swan]

where i have to paste

[slate swan]

bruhh...... lol i am realting so much from i was like his as strt

[slate swan]

under import btw

[slate swan]

upper ?

[slate swan]

do you know basic python?

[slate swan]

ye

down wait

[slate swan]

on which line?

[slate swan]

lemme explain him

[slate swan]

then read the error and then look at your code

[slate swan]

i see but did not understand

[slate swan]

pls.........

[slate swan]

you are not explaining you are giving him solutions thats not how to help

[slate swan]

sry

[slate swan]

lmao please dont rude

lol he is like me altho@slate swan

i guess every ruki is like this

[slate swan]

i am not rude but giving straight solutions isnt going to make you understand it anyway

so i guess its better to explain it than make you come back here every day and ask for same thing

how can i fix my code>

[slate swan]

u said this same line to me erlier damnn

[slate swan]

try to read

u have to learn python i guess

what does the error tell you

good question

i was going to ask same thing

[slate swan]

missing 1 intents

[slate swan]

no

i guess

[slate swan]

not this error

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

this

[slate swan]

so ?

[slate swan]

.

look at me i am u just better

[slate swan]

should i tell?

[slate swan]

intent is not defined

gotcha

yes

[slate swan]

yes tell me i have small brain

varriable intents is not defined

[slate swan]

yes

then define

so you are trying to use varriable that you never created

ezzz

[slate swan]

like what

import os

import discord
from dotenv import load_dotenv

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

load_dotenv()
TOKEN = os.getenv('DISCORD_TOKEN')

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'{client.user} has connected to Discord!')

client.run(TOKEN)```

@slate swan listen today i am here but what if tommorow i wont be here

[slate swan]

why

[slate swan]

this is not the code you send above

u have think it by urself how u gonna do it

[slate swan]

...

okay but if you got this code already

[slate swan]

i just did by watching tutorials on youtube

you need to pass intents to Client

do you know what that means?

no

[slate swan]

i see

[slate swan]

damn i dont know it either

jk

[slate swan]

😂

@slate swanbtw which type of bot u r trying to make

[meager chasm]

why bother trying to help people with no intention of learning or doing anything on their own

[slate swan]

something = ... 

my_var = MyClass(something=something) # passing something to MyClass

thats what i meant

[slate swan]

good question, you are a good question

now try to do that with intents and Client @slate swan

[slate swan]

bcz nothing is permnent bro

except permanent marker😂

[slate swan]

am i supposed to learn sql??

[slate swan]

i did not understand what you wrote

can you code some other for example

broo this was a damn op joke no one laughed

instead of commands.Bot you have discord.Client

[slate swan]

@slate swan sir?

[slate swan]

how can i know what you are supposed to do

[slate swan]

like i finished the strt command and to store the data of ppl

[slate swan]

can u bother to remove these dogs from ur pfp tht makes ur og pfp look bad

just my oppinion

[slate swan]

help wen???

oof tht hurts from inside my heart damn!!! // //

sigma down

lol

hey boysss

@slate swan@slate swan

i did ittt

it come online yeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

wow nice work

welcome to heaven

[slate swan]

💀

what should i do

That's debugging

You prolly want to run it normally

whts wrong in tht

[slate swan]

hey how can i do emebed message in next line'

tht inline = false didnt helped tho

where u went u were here one sec before bruh

[slate swan]

?

next line is \n

[slate swan]

!embeds

f

[merry wren]

yo

how do i create a slash commands using discord.py ?

[slate swan]

@slate swanhow can i do it in an embedded system tho??

[steady flume]

https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/c4324f17a80c94776832430007ad40e6

[slate swan]

where is the docs for embed

[steady flume]

wdym

[steady flume]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Embed

[slate swan]

ty sir

[steady flume]

someone tell me, how to add 2 views ?

for ex
here im editting message and pin one view, but i wanna add other one too

await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed2, view=view)

[smoky sinew]

you don't, you combine them

[steady flume]

how

[smoky sinew]

what do you mean

you just put the components in the second view and add them to the first view

[steady flume]

understand

[merry wren]

after 3h

now lets just wait 3h to check if its really works 💀

[smoky sinew]

what

[uneven imp]

So why y’all gate keeping how to make a discord bot?

[smoky sinew]

what

[uneven imp]

The gate keeping is outrageous

[smoky sinew]

what

[strong knoll]

Can anybody help in #1104462430190440488 ?

[vocal snow]

the gate keeping is horrible bro

[smoky sinew]

😞

the gate keepers

[vocal snow]

cant believe they are keeping the gates like that

[slate swan]

yo whys no one responding to my question

[smoky sinew]

this doesn't work

reload all the bot extensions instead

[slate swan]

can u guide me pls?

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.reload_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.reload\_extension

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

Atomically reloads an extension.

This replaces the extension with the same extension, only refreshed. This is equivalent to a [`unload_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension") followed by a [`load_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension") except done in an atomic way. That is, if an operation fails mid-reload then the bot will roll-back to the prior working state.

[slate swan]

and
i want to make a slash commadn that collects data in json
like
{
"1103352234848292975": f"{data}",
new data}

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

what data

[slate swan]

reviews

like
dark devil is a legit server booster

[smoky sinew]

💀

[slate swan]

or like
5star rating

like that its a vouch bot

<@&831776746206265384>

[west escarp]

!pban 725403494177046578

[unkempt canyon]

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: applied ban to @shadow dirge permanently.

[formal basin]

thanks

[slate swan]

any one alive?

[slate swan]

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.

[slate swan]

so
i want to write a slash command
in which the user gives a feedback in str
and it show save the user id and vouch
"user.id": "reveiw", repeat

i made it but when a user gives feeedback it replaces it

understood?

no i only understand that you want to create feedback command and it accepts string arg with actual feedback

[smoky sinew]

what do you actually need help with though

which parts don't you understand

[slate swan]

yea
but the problem is it replaces the string when new feedback is given

^

[slate swan]

so one user can have many feedbacks

thats what you mean?

yep

then store it as list of feedbacks

suppose
xuser: 5/5
when some other guy vouches other guy it replaces xuser and keeps yuser
consider x and y as developer id

[slate swan]

do u mind guiding me?

[slate swan]

how do you store it now

show code

would anyone be able to send code to make 2 simple button that do different things

[slate swan]

look into the examples

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

[slate swan]

wil do

[slate swan]

@bot.slash_command(guild_ids=[config["guildID"]], name="vouch", description="Add your vouch here.") async def addcap(ctx, vouch: discord.Option(str, "enter feedback", required = True)): if ctx.author.id not in config["sellerID"]: return await ctx.respond(embed = discord.Embed(title = "**Missing Permission**", description = "You must be a **SELLER** to use this command!", color = 0xc80000)) if ctx.author.id in config["sellerID"]: data = [ { f"{ctx.author.id}": vouch } ] with open("vouc.json", "w")as p: json.dump(data, p) embed1 = discord.Embed(title="**Sucess**", description=f"Sucessfully saved your vouch: ||**{vouch}**||") message = await ctx.send(embed=embed1) await message.add_reaction('❌') def check(reaction, user): return user == ctx.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '❌' and reaction.message.id == message.id try: reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check) except asyncio.TimeoutError: pass else: await message.delete()
here is it

[slate swan]

do you use nextcord?

[slate swan]

nah
discord.ext and discord

yes but

its not discord.py

so what is it then

wdym bro

what library do you use

discord.py, pycord, nextcord, disnake, hikari, interactions.py ?

[slate swan]

i cant lie idk

you dont know what lib you use ?

[slate swan]

why do you import os two times

[slate swan]

idk habit

[slate swan]

so the number is the user id and the kj is the feedback yes?

i copy and paste the basic libs and import the extra libs

[slate swan]

yessssir

when a new guys vouches it replaces it

[slate swan]

then instead of storing it as "kj" you can store it as list ["kj"] and then when there is new feedback it will look like ["kj", "other feedback"]

[smoky sinew]

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS feedback (
    user_id BIGINT,
    guild_id BIGINT,
    feedback TEXT,
    PRIMARY KEY (user_id, guild_id)
)

[slate swan]

confused what you meant

[slate swan]

text

varchar

[smoky sinew]

then just do VARCHAR(4000)

[slate swan]

solid

[smoky sinew]

feedback goes in modal

[slate swan]

like this?

Down

[slate swan]

no this will still override

you need to append to list

if the list exists

smtg like this?

try

[smoky sinew]

why are you append member id

[slate swan]

memberid = developer id
coz people change the usernames and my bot would not work

but you want to add feedback

i prefer developer id as it never changes unless u change ur acc

not id

dont you

i do

but the feedback is for a guy
so it displays the feedback of the guy

[smoky sinew]

you want to append the feedback

not the ID

[slate swan]

yep

wait

if someone vouches someone else it shouldnt replace the exsisting data

ngl im confused

[smoky sinew]

yes that's why you want to use the feedback in a list

this would be a lot better in a relational database rather than JSON

you could have a sellers table and a reviews table

reviews could have columns such as seller_id buyer_id guild_id feedback

[slate swan]

so what language would that be again?

[smoky sinew]

it depends on the database you're using

[slate swan]

mongodb? or sql?

[shrewd apex]

either

[slate swan]

idk databases lol im a JSON guy

[slate swan]

both are good your choice

[smoky sinew]

mongodb is not a language and sql is a family of databases

mongodb is not relational though it's a document database

[shrewd apex]

mongodb then

[slate swan]

mongodb is based on json documents

[shrewd apex]

• its free if thats a changing factor

[smoky sinew]

just don't use pymongo

[slate swan]

i heard its free for 500mb then ive to pay

[smoky sinew]

you don't have to pay

[slate swan]

why?

first db is free

[smoky sinew]

both *sql and mongodb are free if you can host it on the same computer as your bot

[shrewd apex]

trust me if u have upto 512mb of discord bot data u will be making enough money to pay for ur own db

[slate swan]

or should i say cluster

[shrewd apex]

512 is a lot

[smoky sinew]

mongodb is only paid if you host it on atlas

[slate swan]

guys this is getting too deep

icl i want it be simple as ill be selling this to others and i want to be as user friendly as possible to the dummiest ever

[shrewd apex]

selling what?

[slate swan]

sell?

[shrewd apex]

i am imagining json files being sold for some reason💀

[slate swan]

the bot

[slate swan]

data invaltion

bruh

i would sell the other with license and make sum money

who would buy JSON

[shrewd apex]

lmao good luck finding clients

[slate swan]

selling bot

[slate swan]

ngl i have em

[shrewd apex]

u need mongodb or sql json is mot for db

cuz its corruptable

if ur using mongo use motor library if u decide sql go with postgres or similar asynchronous drivers

(asyncpg)

[slate swan]

aiosqlite

import asyncio

[shrewd apex]

asyncpg >>

[slate swan]

ty for da gelp tho

all of ya

luv ya

never used it tho xdd

have you ever tried Prisma

[shrewd apex]

hmm reminded me been some time since i worked on lore need to get on it too

[shrewd apex]

nope

[glad cradle]

wowo i wanna do some real bot that gets really famous

[shrewd apex]

join lore

[slate swan]

bro missed ~

[shrewd apex]

;-;

[glad cradle]

sigh sometimes Pokelore makes me cry

[slate swan]

is there a way to disable all the buttons on 1 message with 1 message

[shrewd apex]

u still didn't sort the embed thingy ?

I'll do it tmrw ig

[shrewd apex]

u can press just a button to disable all the other buttons that works for u?

[slate swan]

is that a no

[slate swan]

how do i make 1 disable button

[shrewd apex]

bro be focused on 1

[glad cradle]

I was thinking how tf I'm supposed to make the constructor better, let's just leave it like that, I've already replaced all the disnake.Embed(s) though

[shrewd apex]

just set the callback disable all buttons and edit the view

[shrewd apex]

okie

I'll do the minigames tmrw

[glad cradle]

that is a yeas

[shrewd apex]

or if u free we could each do one

[glad cradle]

yeah + yes yeas

[glad cradle]

alright, just share your ideas

[shrewd apex]

its on the task in the issues iirc

just pick one

[glad cradle]

ok I'll check it later

btw yesterday I worked on two PRs for disnake 🔥🔥

[shrewd apex]

aight just ping me with whichever u pick

[shrewd apex]

op

make a disnake pr which handles oauth flow

[glad cradle]

and I was trying to fix a quite serious bug regarding sub commands but sigh

[slate swan]

[glad cradle]

I can make an extension for it, it's out of scope for the base API

[slate swan]

what bot tho

and what do i do

[shrewd apex]

pokelore definitely

[glad cradle]

ash let's down join Pokelore if that's ok for you

[shrewd apex]

i am all hands up for free help

[shrewd apex]

wanna join

[smoky sinew]

developer of leaf 👍

[slate swan]

yes i would like to join if there is something i can do

[glad cradle]

I'm putting all my PRs on the bill

[glad cradle]

Well I've made a PR 😭

[shrewd apex]

yessir

[smoky sinew]

i merged your PR into disnake branch

[glad cradle]

yes I saw it

[shrewd apex]

sent an invite

[smoky sinew]

how disnake work??

[slate swan]

im in

[smoky sinew]

wait i'm gonna test the branch

[slate swan]

wait i need to reconnect my github to discord cause its actually incorrect now

[shrewd apex]

aight

[glad cradle]

it's quite similar to discord.py but slash commands are synced automatically

[shrewd apex]

i added the role

[smoky sinew]

Because leaf-bot depends on disnake-jishaku (^2.6.5) which doesn't match any versions, version solvi
ng failed.

[glad cradle]

and other things

what, lemme check

[smoky sinew]

ahh you didn't lock poetry

silly goose

[shrewd apex]

lmao

[glad cradle]

it was a draft

[smoky sinew]

did you gitignore pyproject.toml or something

[glad cradle]

mh, maybe

I remember changing the version of Python to run the Bot

[smoky sinew]

AttributeError: 'LeafBot' object has no attribute 'database'

wtf

[glad cradle]

sigh

[smoky sinew]

oh wait

[slate swan]

skill issue

[glad cradle]

it was working when I writed it so you are the problem!

[smoky sinew]

i forgot i loaded a non-existent extension

[glad cradle]

fr

[left dew]

why does my code throw an except error to a try statement but the bot has already responded to the try statement

[merry wren]

can someone help me, how do i make (send) a button.

Hello, what should I do if the button is triggered only once? And how can I remove the interaction error? The code is executed as follows.

Link to the command code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ejilacanot
Disnake library

[smoky sinew]

@glad cradle it's a disnake user!!

[polar scroll]

how can i improve this?

[fading marlin]

Don't do any of that in on_ready. discord.Client has status and activity kwargs that you can use, and use a owner-only message command to sync your tree

[smoky sinew]

client = discord.Client(
    ...,
    activity=discord.Game("Project Alicization"),
    status=discord.Status.do_not_disturb
)

and don't sync in on_ready

and rename your bot variable to bot

since you are probably using commands.Bot

[latent mirage]

i would suggest you perform command loading in the run function, I'm assuming you are using the Client class
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Client.run

By doing so you get rid of the risk that someone may call a command before the bot has loaded them

[tired notch]

is there a way to delay button clicks so i dont get rate limited

[slate swan]

anyone got ideas on what commands i should add to my bot or how to improve it

[smoky sinew]

you want to send an API call after Client.run is called

before the bot's http session has even initialized

[latent mirage]

Wdym by api call

[polar scroll]

Okok, thanks everyone

[smoky sinew]

syncing app commands requires a call to discord's API

[latent mirage]

Oh yeah, i forgot, discord is technically forcing you have commands interface with their way of integrating commands instead of the bot passively reading chat messages

[smoky sinew]

mfs when they complain at discord for years for forcing them to manually parse message content and when they actually add it everyone starts complaining

oh yes building my own command parser is so much fun

[slate swan]

how can i made a discord bot using spotify api to play music?

[latent mirage]

I was the vocal minority that prefered parsing by hand as it allowed for more interesting interactions such as reaction on key words and the likes

[smoky sinew]

the only thing i miss about ext.commands is the flags converter but i can still do it with the string converter

[kindred crater]

I recently made a program that was fully function less then 6 hours ago, and after attempting to run it again, discord api is now returning a 403 error, (Forbidden). What I cant seem to understand is why it is throwing that error when not a single bit of code was touched, here's the code.

def sendMessage(token, id, message):
    url = 'https://discord.com/api/v10/channels/{}/messages'.format(id)
    data = {"content": message}
    header = {"authorization": token}

    r = requests.post(url, data, headers=header)
    if r.status_code == 200:
        print(Fore.GREEN + "[Success] Message sent to " + Fore.CYAN + format(id))
    else:
        print(Fore.RED + "[Failed] Could not send message to " + Fore.CYAN + format(id) + Fore.RED + "\n[Error] Error code " + str(r.status_code))

after changing the token i now get a 401 error, any ideas on what may be the issue?

[sick birch]

- header = {"authorization": token}
+ header = {"Authorization": f"Bot {token}"}

[kindred crater]

401

[sick birch]

Could have something to do with id being a built in

perhaps try printing url to see if it's expected?

[kindred crater]

wdym by that

[sick birch]

print(url)

[kindred crater]

okay yeah

https://discord.com/api/v10/channels/1099803046327890130/messages

[sick birch]

The only other thing then is to make sure your bot has access to that channel

[kindred crater]

checked that as well

which is why im so confused

[sick birch]

Reset your bot token and use the new token, and double check the channel ID

[kindred crater]

just tested that, the token its using literally owns the server and it cant send it

i cant seem to fix it.

[sick birch]

How'd you get the bot to own the server?

[kindred crater]

its not running off bot atm

[sick birch]

Then?

[kindred crater]

its just running off a discord acc

[sick birch]

Ah, that's why

Those are against discord's terms of service

[kindred crater]

wasnt planning on making it like this long term

but if i cant even fix it to work like this prob not gonna mess with it anymore

[sick birch]

It'll work perfectly if you used an actual bot token

[kindred crater]

fixed it

back working with regular tokens and bot tokens now

[slate swan]

i am having a problem in

[shrewd apex]

imagine ai takes over discord

discord is ready for that scenario

[glad cradle]

kid I'm also a disnake contributor

notable contributor, pay respect

[vocal snow]

damn, so now there are like 12 in total?

[glad cradle]

hey! disnake is famous

[glad cradle]

you need to respond using the interaction that is coming from the button

[smoky sinew]

@glad cradle are you textual user

[glad cradle]

what

[smoky sinew]

https://github.com/textualize/textual

[glad cradle]

ah I used it once

[pallid stirrup]

Why it fails to give everyone coins

everyone = ctx.guild.members
for member in everyone:
if member.bot:
continue
add_coins(member.id, amount)
time.sleep(0.05)

[vocal snow]

Member intents enabled?

And don't use time.sleep, use asyncio.sleep

[pallid stirrup]

ok I'll try

this worked ty

[slate swan]

@bot.listen("on_message")
async def detect_msgs(message: discord.Message) -> None:
    if message.author.bot:
        return

    for user_id, reason in afk_users.items():
        if f"<@!{user_id}>" in message.content or f"<@{user_id}>" in message.content:
    
            embed = discord.Embed(description=f"<@{user_id}> is currently AFK with status: **{reason}**", color=0x808080)
            await message.channel.send(embed=embed)
    
    if message.author.id in afk_users:
        del afk_users[message.author.id]
        embed = discord.Embed(description=f":wave: <@{message.author.id}>: Your AFK status has been **removed**.", color=0x808080)
        await message.channel.send(embed=embed)

How can I make the bot ignore when I originally set my afk status?

[vocal snow]

what do you mean by that?

[slate swan]

when I set an afk status, since the bot is reading every message it's like removing the status right after I set it

[smoky sinew]

whart

i have been summoned by @vocal snow

[pallid stirrup]

Damn, it took bot 15 minutes to give everyone coins

[upbeat gust]

what are you even doing to give people coins?

why do you have a delay?

[pallid stirrup]

Server too big

[upbeat gust]

That doesnt explain anything

why would you need a delay

[pallid stirrup]

Bot would overload because of a little weak monitoring

[upbeat gust]

what?

[upbeat gust]

What does "giving coins" entail?

This should be something you can do with one db operation

You're definitely doing something wrong if you need to take 15 minutes to "add coins"

[short silo]

I need some basic knowledge about bot hosting.

I have a bot that uses asyncio.to_thread() for a few io based tasks and other stuff. What kind of host should i choose, for that ? I am doing this for the first time so it maybe a stupid question.

So, most hosts provide a single thread to run on, would that hamper with the bot ? it should, right ? Whats the soln.

[smoky sinew]

you can create unlimited threads in python pretty much

how would the host restrict you from doing that

[short silo]

hmm, time to read up

[short silo]

could you recommed an article

[vocal snow]

(these threads aren't physical threads)

[short silo]

I guess time to learn threading

[short silo]

Great start i would say XD

[vivid axle]

is it possible to ban a user who is outside the guild?

like guild.ban(user)

or something?

[vocal snow]

yes

!d discord.Guild.ban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.ban

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

Bans a user from the guild.

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

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

[vocal snow]

it takes any Snowflake

so you can pass a discord.Object

[vivid axle]

thank you

[slate swan]

Hey

I need source code of bots

[vivid axle]

dont copy people

or ur a skid

[short silo]

python allows unlimited threads but if its run on a single physical thread, wouldnt anything io based block the entire execution

[vocal snow]

anything cpu heavy would block the entire execution

io bound blocking can be avoided with context switching

the executing thread is swapped whenever it has to wait on some io

anyways, what are you threading?

[short silo]

i am not 'threading' anything so to say, i am using asyncio.to_thread to convert an ogg file to mp3

[vocal snow]

ah ok, that would be entirely cpu bound i suppose

[short silo]

indeed

[vocal snow]

yeah on something with a single cpu im not sure if thats a good idea

[short silo]

could you suggest a host which i could use ?

[vocal snow]

are you looking for a free one?

[short silo]

nope, paid works

[vocal snow]

https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/vps-services/

those are what are generally recommended

you could also do a free trial for gcp/aws/azure/, try your code out and then go to a paid one

gcp has a forever free tier, i think a dual core machine

[eternal shuttle]

why does this keeps on showing on my terminal everytime i try to run my file on the terminal

this is my code

[short silo]

so, threads in aws ec2 would be instances ?

[short silo]

do not share token bruv

[vocal snow]

because you're running it in a python REPL not in a shell

[short silo]

quit()

[vocal snow]

no, im not very experienced with aws but an instance would be a individual vps

which could have 1 or more threads

[eternal shuttle]

i changed the token

[smoky sinew]

thx for the token

[eternal shuttle]

it was the old token

[smoky sinew]

👍

[smoky sinew]

just one instance

[short silo]

@smoky sinew so....

what config do i need

[smoky sinew]

what config

just run it on one instance

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.

gross pip

just use poetry bro 👍

[slate swan]

[eternal shuttle]

like this?

[smoky sinew]

replit uses poetry for you

[slate swan]

no

[smoky sinew]

no you have to pass intents into client

actually no just remove client

[eternal shuttle]

alright

[smoky sinew]

also enable message content in your developer portal @eternal shuttle

[meager orchid]

I don't get it, but messages respond to messages with a button. Or how should it be done?

[smoky sinew]

https://discord.com/developers/applications

[slate swan]

never understood why you would like to use client

[smoky sinew]

nobody used client until slash commands were a thing 💀

[slate swan]

oh my

you need to run it as a command in the terminal

[eternal shuttle]

if i remove client, wouldn't it make the @client.event useless?

[slate swan]

i dont know how you do that in this ide you are using

[slate swan]

replace client.event with bot.event

[short silo]

so, some help with amazon ec2, i need to run some cpu bound tasks along with the bot itself i.e 2 threads or more so, does t4g nano works ?

[maiden fable]

That's replit

[eternal shuttle]

alright i'll try that

[slate swan]

also with bot you dont use on_message event to create commands

there is more advanced and more readable idea when creating them using a bot

[eternal shuttle]

alrighty

[short silo]

any1

[eternal shuttle]

what do i do with this

[slate swan]

you pass proper token

[smoky sinew]

Improper token has been passed.

[short silo]

why is your 5th line, pip install discord py

[smoky sinew]

use it??

[short silo]

run it ?

[slate swan]

remove this line from code

it should be run into console not python script

[smoky sinew]

you said you were going to comment that out

[short silo]

Put a hash before the pip install

[slate swan]

No, simply remove it from the file as mentioned previously

[smoky sinew]

console

as in shell, not REPL

you should be using poetry add discord.py instead though

[upbeat gust]

Yeah replit uses poetry

Or even just use the packages tab

[slate swan]

check by running the code?

[smoky sinew]

don't use discord_slash

[upbeat gust]

Where did you get this code?

[thin raft]

discord.py

[slate swan]

discord.py already have built in slash commands

[smoky sinew]

just use an example ^^^

base your code off that

All of them

[smoky sinew]

all of them lol

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>

Like not in a cog

[smoky sinew]

it's not a cog

[upbeat gust]

It's not in a cog though?

[smoky sinew]

just because it's in a class doesn't make it a cog

Oh

[slate swan]

dont use discord_slash

huh

[slate swan]

no i gave you example of slash commands in discord.py

how to remove roles from member by using list type?

i mean i have list and wanna remove all of this roles in list

[timid spade]

yeah

[timid spade]

oh okay

[smoky sinew]

await interaction.user.remove_roles(*map(interaction.guild.get_role, languages))

[glad cradle]

what you're actually doing is ok and actually it works but interactions needs to be responded, otherwise discord will flag it as failed

now there are different types of interactions: interactions that comes from app commands (slash commands), from buttons, from context menus, etc...

you need to use the interaction of the button, you're actually using it to check if the author is the same as who invoked the command

in your case you need to send a response using interaction_ctx

something like
await interaction_ctx.response.send_message(...) or await interaction_ctx.send(...)

regarding the first question I did not understand what you mean

[steady flume]

thanks a lot!

[meager orchid]

Ahh, now I get it. Thanks for the help, I got the separate class option and didn't understand it at all. I was already thinking of redoing everything, thank you so much!

[glad cradle]

you're welcome

My error

[slate swan]

Doesn't seem related to Discord bots but rather #databases, not every code that is for your bot is related to discord.py and similar libraries

It's a question about aiomysql and how to set it up properly which is to be asked in #databases

[smoky sinew]

#databases

oh

[slate swan]

Invalid token

and the stickers are superfluous

[smoky sinew]

you've already been told to show your actual traceback

but given that it's unauthorized yeah krypton is probably right

[north kiln]

I have a question about building an auto complete choice list by querying to a database
basically it works like a search where the user input a name and I try to display possible options similar to the input from a fixed list in my database. I am currently trying to use a function to return a list after a query then call that function in the autocomplete function, something like

  async def fetch_name(self):
        async with aiosqlite.connect('./db/discord.db') as db:
            async with db.execute(sql) as cursor:
                query = await cursor.fetchall() 
                return query

  @command.autocomplete('name')
  async def autocomplete_name(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, current: str):
       name_list = fetch_name()
       return get_close_matches(current, name_list)  

I am not sure what is the best way to do this because it seems like the bot will keep making connections to the database

[smoky sinew]

make a cache

lrucache will work in this scenario

[north kiln]

I will look into it

I have thought of making a cache but never learn how

[glad cradle]

redis

[smoky sinew]

yes

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.

[formal basin]

I have made a link blocker but how do I make it so it ignores a link in a certain channel?

[upbeat gust]

check what channel the message is in

[upbeat gust]

this is not a very good way to check for links-

[formal basin]

How?

[formal basin]

Why?

[upbeat gust]

the id or name

[upbeat gust]

because you dont need to have http://

[slate swan]

example.com

"filter" bypassed, ggs

[upbeat gust]

exactly

regex will be much better, but still not perfect

[formal basin]

Oh

[formal basin]

Would it be in an if statement?

[upbeat gust]

are you new to python?

[slate swan]

What do you think

[formal basin]

No

[upbeat gust]

really seems like you are if ur asking whether to use an if statement

[formal basin]

Yes

[formal basin]

Idk what to write

[upbeat gust]

just check if the channel name or id is the one you want to ignore

[formal basin]

Ok

[abstract kindle]

Hey yo, how can I access my bot instance in a lower file?

@classmethod
def new(cls):
  guild = bot.get_guild(856915776345866240)
```I need to access bot here to retrieve the guild, but I don't have access to `bot` in this file

[formal basin]

It says else: is an invalid syntax

[formal basin]

It says else is an invalid syntax

[slate swan]

[abstract kindle]

I would recommend trying some basic python exercises before jumping into discord bots. Your issue is related to indentation.. You have a return statement in between your if and else

[upbeat gust]

what exactly are you trying to do?

[abstract kindle]

I need to access the bot instance to get a guild channel in one of my files

[upbeat gust]

yes, what's the purpose of this other file?

[formal basin]

Thanks

[upbeat gust]

dpy has extensions and cogs that allow you to split commands into seperate files, maybe thats what you're trying to do

otherwise, just pass your bot instance to that func/method as an arg

[abstract kindle]

No no, this file is related to my database. It's not a cog

[upbeat gust]

^

[abstract kindle]

Got it

[eternal shuttle]

how do i fix invalid syntax everytime i try to run my code on the terminal?

[formal basin]

I don’t have an error and it doesn’t work

[naive briar]

Correct the syntax? 🤷

[eternal shuttle]

i mean i dont think theres any wrong syntax on my code

[naive briar]

Show it then

[eternal shuttle]

hollon

can i send it on ur dm?

[naive briar]

No

[eternal shuttle]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

Can you send the traceback

!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.

[eternal shuttle]

bot = discord.Client()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'discord' is not defined

[vocal snow]

you forgot to import it?

[upbeat gust]

That doesn't match the code you showed

[eternal shuttle]

nah wait

wrong one

[upbeat gust]

Also why are you shadowing bot and on_ready?

Use discord.Client OR commands.Bot, not both

[eternal shuttle]

oh yeah i forgot to delete the discord.Client

[eternal shuttle]

ok so i changed my code to this

and here's the traceback i got

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:\Users\Ryxx\Desktop\Akairo Project\bot.py", line 8, in <module>
client = discord.Client()
TypeError: Client.init() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents'

[vocal snow]

you do not need both Client and Bot

choose one

[eternal shuttle]

what about now?

oh i forgot to turn on the intents that's needed on the discord dev portal 💀

all good

[fiery hare]

this theme

[polar scroll]

how can i improve this?

[vocal snow]

Only enable the intents you really need, use setup_hook instead of on_ready, remove unused imports, fix type annotations

[magic whale]

hello

can anyone tell me how to delete a message in discord.py?

[vocal snow]

!d discord.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.delete

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

Deletes the message.

Your own messages could be deleted without any proper permissions. However to delete other people’s messages, you must have [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages").

Changed in version 1.1: Added the new `delay` keyword-only parameter.

[vocal snow]

You can get a discord.Message object via Messageable.fetch_message or from Context/Interaction/other source depending on your code

[magic whale]

thnx alot

[magic whale]

when i try it it is giving me an error

[vocal snow]

Send your code and error please

[vocal snow]

send_message doesn't return the message, you have to use Interaction.original_response iir

!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.

[vocal snow]

You call it on an instance of discord.Interaction, not the class

[fiery hare]

guys how can i make kick command for discord bot?

[vocal snow]

You'll need to learn classes to understand more about that, it's a slightly big topic for me to cover here

[magic whale]

you mean use interaction instead of Interaction?

[vocal snow]

Yes

[potent spear]

uppercase
use the variable interaction, not the class
there's's probably a parameter in your callback function called interaction or whatever

[twilit grotto]

swear he'd just do confirmation_message.delete() no?

[magic whale]

i tried it as well

[vocal snow]

That is generally what is used, but it's essentially a shortcut for Class.method(instance)

[twilit grotto]

ah

[magic whale]

yea

[vocal snow]

(The instance is passed to self)

[potent spear]

seems like he needs to grasp the difference between a class and an instance of it / an object

[magic whale]

confirmation_message = discord.interaction.origional_response

like this?

[potent spear]

no

[magic whale]

[potent spear]

discord.Interaction is a class

interaction is a variable in your function, that's the one you need to access

[magic whale]

yea but how do i use it to delete the message

[potent spear]

how would you think you'd delete a message in the first place without showing me any code?

[magic whale]

i have shown the code here

[potent spear]

read the last 5 words

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Message.delete

[magic whale]

i have used a different method there to try to delete message

[potent spear]

why though?
why don't you just get the message object and call the .delete() method on it?

[potent spear]

this is very relevant here

[magic whale]

it says the message object is Nonetype and it can't delete a nonetype object

[potent spear]

code + full error traceback when you had that error?

[magic whale]

ah what do you mean? i am not really good at understanding english

there's no discord.ext.commands.commands in discord.py

also, consider building your bot in the home directory of your system
