discord-bots

[rugged shadow]

put the interaction parameter before the button?

[frozen flame]

why am i not not eligible for the Active Developer Badge although i have slash commands?

[north kiln]

You have to claim it in dev portal

[frozen flame]

it says i am not eligible

[north kiln]

You will be eligible if you have used it once

Contact discord then

[frozen flame]

used what

the commands or the bot

[north kiln]

Used slash command?

[frozen flame]

works on server of 3 ppl?

[north kiln]

Doesn't matter

[hearty spindle]

anyone know how to do this bot its on danish tho

its a ticket bot

[north kiln]

Have you ever made a bot before?

[vale wing]

I still can't memorise what order each lib has haha

[vale wing]

You want the ready code or you want to learn how to make one?

[frozen flame]

used all commands bus still not eligible

[vale wing]

You sure you did all the steps:

• create application on dev portal
• invite the bot to your server
• code and run the script
• use any command and make sure it responds

[hearty spindle]

Ready code

[vale wing]

Github is the way to go then

[hearty spindle]

Yeah oka

[forest hatch]

can u help me guys, my bot cannot leave the voice channel if the voice channel's name contain emoji on it. i'm just start learning to make discord bot

here is the code :

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

@client.event #starting the bot
async def on_ready():
    print("success :  now bot is connected to discord")
@client.command()
async def join(ctx):
    if ctx.author.voice is None:
        await ctx.send("you are not in a voice channel")
    channel = ctx.author.voice.channel
    if ctx.voice_client is None and "mig" not in channel.name:
        await channel.connect()
        await ctx.send(f"joined {channel}")
        
    else:
        await ctx.vocie_client.move_to(channel)
        await ctx.send(f"moved to {channel}")
        
@client.command(name='leave')
async def leave(ctx):
    voice_client = ctx.message.guild.voice_client
    if voice_client.is_connected():
        await voice_client.disconnect()
        await ctx.send('Bot left the voice channel')
    else:
        await ctx.send("The bot is not connected to a voice channel.")

[north kiln]

Any errors?

[forest hatch]

no error

[frozen flame]

yes

[forest hatch]

but still cannot leave the voice channel

[vale wing]

You refreshed the page?

Make sure you are using this account on dev portal too

[vale wing]

Literally no output at all?

[frozen flame]

yea

[vale wing]

It should either throw an error (unless your error handler is too hungry and eats them) or respond with "not connected to voice channel"

[vale wing]

That's weird

Bro what it blocked discord devs server invite

Cmon the heck

[hollow osprey]

https://discord.com/invite/discord-developers

there you go

[vale wing]

@hollow osprey why is it blocked tho

[hollow osprey]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'll check

[vale wing]

👍

[frozen flame]

what should i do

[vale wing]

Go to this server and ask in channel dedicated to dev badge, they might help you more since it doesn't seem to be code issue

[hearty spindle]

Anyone got a ticket bot with buttons i can get

[white citrus]

https://docs.nextcord.dev/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#nextcord.nextcord.ext.commands.on_command_completion
How to i use it

[slate swan]

thats an event

you use it as all events

https://github.com/nextcord/nextcord/blob/master/examples/basic_bot.py#L19-L21

[unkempt canyon]

examples/basic_bot.py lines 19 to 21

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

[white citrus]

Yeah i knwo but i want ...

[slate swan]

here is example event called on_ready

[shrewd apex]

make it

[slate swan]

if you want to use that event in a cog instead main file you can use @nextcord.ext.commands.Cog.listener() decorator

[white citrus]

I want to return it likely so for the logs

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.

[hearty spindle]

im not good at coding python

[shrewd apex]

on_command_completion only has ctx obj as param its likely thats only for normal commands

slash command may have another event

gist of it is no different from on_ready except it has a positional parameter

[shrewd apex]

it might be better to start with simpler projects to build up your skill set then

[hearty spindle]

yeah okayy

[shrewd apex]

also python is not the only language that can be used so if u know other languages feel free to use them

[hearty spindle]

Im only good at LUA

[slate swan]

say less

[warm cairn]

Anyone here that deploy a discord bot throughout docker before?

[sour sand]

burp

[warm cairn]

I'm stuck with an error called open /dev/ptmx: no such file or directory

[slate swan]

I made a ticket discord bot and when a user opens a ticket, i made a code so there is a close button, but there's not one. There is no errors.

[north kiln]

send your code?

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/apeserabos

[north kiln]

do you want to add the button after user selects?

might have to subclass your views

or define another callback for it

[slate swan]

i want it here

[north kiln]

attach another view with the button to that message then

you didn't do that in your message

[slate swan]

i have an error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/runner/Atomic/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/ui/view.py", line 427, in _scheduled_task
    await item.callback(interaction)
TypeError: ticketcallback() got an unexpected keyword argument 'view'

[north kiln]

your ticket callback didn't define any kwargs

[slate swan]

wdym

[north kiln]

async def ticketcallback(interaction):

[slate swan]

yeah?

[north kiln]

the function isn't accepting keyword arguments

what did you do

[slate swan]

i didnt change something there

the only thing i did

is

in async def ticket(ctx): i replaced button.callback = ticketcallback with button.callback = partial(ticketcallback, view=View(timeout=None))

[north kiln]

you are calling ticket callback with the view argument

which isn't in its parameters

[slate swan]

should i do async def ticketcallback(interaction, view):?

[north kiln]

yes

but I am not sure how that relates to your issue

[north kiln]

you should make a new view anyway

[slate swan]

same error but on different function

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/runner/Atomic/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/ui/view.py", line 427, in _scheduled_task
    await item.callback(interaction)
TypeError: ticketcallback() missing 1 required positional argument: 'view'

i cant find ```

await item.callback(interaction)```

[north kiln]

remove view= then

I don't really know how positional and keyword stuff works

[warm cairn]

docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: open /dev/ptmx: no such file or directory: unknown.
Anyone can help me with this?

Dockerfile error

[slate swan]

what view=?

[north kiln]

in your function call

[slate swan]

which one

[north kiln]

ok I think you didn't change your select callback

forget about all these things first

[slate swan]

k

[north kiln]

revert this

and make a new view with the cancel button attached to message in channel.send

[slate swan]

button = Button(label="❌ Close", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def close_callback(interaction):
        await channel.delete()
        await interaction.response.send_message("Ticket closed successfully.", ephemeral=True)
    button.callback = close_callback
    view.add_item(button)

isnt this working?

[north kiln]

no

[slate swan]

i fixed the "this interaction failed"

[north kiln]

firstly, you added the button before the view is even defined

[slate swan]

but theres no button

[north kiln]

second you have to attach the view to your message

they are different messages

the one sent by the command and the one sent once a ticket is created

so you have to attach another view

[slate swan]

k

i saw the code in a yt tutorial

can you make the code as an example?

[north kiln]

delete_view = View()
delete_view.add_item(button)
.
.
.
await channel.send(..., view=delete_view)

[slate swan]

so should i attach it to this somehow?

[north kiln]

yes

[slate swan]

should i add the button = ... inside the function?

[north kiln]

no

you attach a button to a view

then send the view

[slate swan]

button = Button(label="❌ Close", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def close_callback(interaction):
        await channel.delete()
        await interaction.response.send_message("Ticket closed successfully.", ephemeral=True)
        delete_view = View()
        delete_view.add_item(button)
        .
        .
        .
        
        await channel.send(..., view=delete_view)

like that?

[slate swan]

If you expect it to work with those ... I'd be interesting

[glossy heart]

how do i make bots show that one like color line thing on the left?

like this

[vocal snow]

Those are called embeds

You make an instance of discord.Embed and pass it to the embed kwarg of Messageable.send

[sick birch]

!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...

[sick birch]

Supporting documentation ^

[sour sand]

so is it good now ?

(~ ∞ languages supported)

[potent spear]

the picture on the top right of that embed seems redundant

[sour sand]

yea ik

[potent spear]

if codeblocks are also perfectly parsed, then it's perfectly fine
*cti py print("hello world!")

[sour sand]

you want me to do the command ?

and also wich language

[potent spear]

try C#

ah, I get it, the first argument of the command is the language

and all that follows is the code, so I want to see that in codeblocks
if it shows it parsed correctly in the image, then you're all set I guess

[potent spear]

that's not in codeblocks though

+cti c#

using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");    
    }
  }
}```

if you want to copy it exactly:
+cti c#
```
using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
}
}
}
```

[sour sand]

@potent spear

idk if its good, i dont do c#

[potent spear]

what was the actual command?
anyways, remove that thumbnail too (top right)

[potent spear]

that's still without codeblocks...

[sour sand]

dont even know what that is

[potent spear]

this is a codeblock

[potent spear]

here is what it looks like

[potent spear]

here is what I actually typed

[potent spear]

Formatting code on discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py

```

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

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

[sour sand]

is it even useful ??

[potent spear]

ofcourse it is

[sour sand]

just on discord dude

[potent spear]

print("Isn't this a lot more readable code?")

class Poop:
  def __init__(self, person_pants):
      # ...

instead of this terrible thing
print("Isn't this a lot more readable code?")

class Poop:
def init(self, person_pants):
# ...

[potent spear]

well, your command is too... right?

[sour sand]

yes but wdc on the image its right soo

just the command is unreadable but the ilmage result is ok

[potent spear]

it's your command, I mean, you can at least try and see if codeblocks get parsed correctly...

[slate swan]

poop your self 😔

[sour sand]

it dosent i sai you

[potent spear]

fixed

[sour sand]

said

[potent spear]

I would definitely add that

[sour sand]

i personally dont, ik i asked if it missed something but its a way more practical to just copy paste the code instead of puting the "`````", the code name, close it, its long dude

[potent spear]

definitely not for developers, I'm also quite sure this is messed up if you were to do it on mobile

[sour sand]

bro who codes on mobile

[potent spear]

you'd freak out if you were to see some forum screenshots...

[sour sand]

i dont want to dude

what a mess

imagine coding on a 6inches iphone 💀

[noble abyss]

anyone knows how to fix this from happening

Hello, I need suggestions for commands for my discord bot. My server is about a Roblox game studio. So far I got these commands.

[formal basin]

an anounce command

to make an announcement

[sleek cedar]

Ok any others?

[formal basin]

random number

hi command

[sleek cedar]

what would that do

just say hi?

[formal basin]

yes

auto mod]

kick command

time out command

and un time out command

clear command

to purge the messages

[sleek cedar]

I already use wick for moderation so I don't any moderation commands currently. I might switch over some day but Wick is good at moderation.

[formal basin]

oh. ok

[sleek cedar]

@formal basin and more suggestions xD

any

[formal basin]

no

[sleek cedar]

ok

[sour sand]

hello

i got alot basics ones

[sleek cedar]

ok

[sleek cedar]

name them pls

oo wow

ty

[sour sand]

these are easy, practical and a little bit inovating (+cti, +ld, +lock)

[sleek cedar]

indeed ty

[sour sand]

Either, you can ask GPT for creative commands

[sleek cedar]

oh good idea

[sour sand]

yea

[sleek cedar]

forgot about that 💀

Hello, I'm trying to handle buttons with "discord.ui.view" but I can't combine them with "cogs", how can I do this with both classes?

[vocal snow]

what do you mean you cannot combine them with cogs? Views and Cogs are completely seperate things

[quartz viper]

Maybe I'm explaining myself wrong but I'm having trouble using both, I have a button on an embed but when I click on it the interaction fails

[vocal snow]

how are you responding to the interaction?

[swift acorn]

Hello I need some help, in my on_member_join function I am tracking invites and also sending a welcome embed

Until now I didn't have the welcome embed implemented, and invite tracking was working fine. Right after adding welcome embed, it works fine, but the invite tracking isn't working.

I tried to remove the welcome embed and then test the invite tracking and it worked

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/udoruwatuy

I'm not sure how the welcome embed is breaking the invite tracking because it doesn't have any errors, nothing in the console, the invite tracking embed just doesn't send

[potent spear]

please show us "code that works" vs "code that doesn't work" in 1 link

[tired pine]

You're everywhere

I saw a message in the discord.py server from 2 years ago and noticed you were there as well haha

polar opposite of @smoky sinew

[potent spear]

not true
experience-wise I just have seen a lot of dpy.
and since 80% of these questions are for beginners, it's not hard

[smoky sinew]

i am ever-present and none-knowing

[maiden fable]

And I'm never-present and none-knowing

[smoky sinew]

what language is in your profile picture

i can't figure it out

[maiden fable]

Mix of Python and JS with a higher emphasis on Python

[smoky sinew]

if sad() == true:

[slate swan]

OOP at it's max

[maiden fable]

that true is the only reason I have to add JS 😭😔

[dry kelp]

mudkip i just went with the easier solution

[formal basin]

how can i make a welcome bot for different servers

i have db

[dry kelp]

Create models per guild, using guild id as primary key to distingue guilds

basically i can't set the channel id due to this failing row

[raw quail]

The select option works well in discord, but when I click the select menu in the option, it says 'The interaction failed' from bot. may i know what i missing?

[smoky sinew]

a cool thing would be to have a setup command that server owners can run where you could run something like !welcome setup Welcome {mention}! You are the {number} member to join the server! and it would add the guild id and message to the database, then when a member joins it could say something like py await member.send(welcome_message.format( mention=member.mention, number=f"{guild.member_count}th" )) and the output would be ```
Welcome @mudkip#0001! You are the 167th member to join the server!

[naive briar]

Can you print self.values

[smoky sinew]

where are you calling variable_selects

[raw quail]

i changed the name variable_selects to callback and its working now

[naive briar]

Sounds about right

up..

[slate swan]

Down

Once it reaches 0 it still goes down in negative

Hence the "xx seconds ago"

Yes the number of seconds elapsed after 0 goes up, which is basically front-end only, though the timer itself continues going down

It doesn't do

3
2
1
0

3

[swift acorn]

Code that works: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/gicadacuja
Code that doesn't work: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/udoruwatuy.py

So after I added the welcome embed in the start everything invite related stopped working, if I remove it, it works again

Edit: Nevermind I figured it out

[north kiln]

I changed my bot's name and suddenly discord says I am requesting intents I did not enable?

wth

[north kiln]

nvm I did something stupid lol

[slate swan]

how can i add !close to my ticket bot?

[sour sand]

ik its wierd but someone can come in my server and just test my bot for a few minutes, ask MP please

[lean harbor]

async def suggest(interaction: discord.Interaction, title: str, suggestion: str):

    await suggestion_message.add_reaction(':x:')
    await interaction.response.send_message("Your suggestion has been submitted!")

Quick question, instead of the user Id, How would you make the username and tag of the person who used the command appear on the top with there pfp. Like carls suggestion command if you have seen it

[still sentinel]

Please don't joke about things like this. I'd suggest you delete that.

[north kiln]

user tag is gone soon anyway

[slate swan]

I Have a problem

i made a ticket bot, but there is no button to the text to open a ticket

no button

[slate swan]

the problem is what did you use pycord or discord_components?

the problem is, i used ctx to send the message, but then changed it to embed

Does anyone know how they make the buttons un-clickable and also less visible like this after they timeout?
And can it be done in discord.py?

[slate swan]

Yes that's pretty much 1 to 1 what is 2 messages above

[swift acorn]

How would I make a input box in a modal that is optional?

[smoky sinew]

use the on_timeout method and loop over all UI elements and disable them

[smoky sinew]

set required to false

[swift acorn]

ah did not know you can disable them, thank you very much

[swift acorn]

does the variable become None if they don't enter anything?

[smoky sinew]

i don't think so, i think it's an empty string

[swift acorn]

i will just print it once and test it out

[thorn horizon]

Hello bit of a python noob and i stupidly started playing around with making a discord bot for fun, and I am trying to get what's probably a simple thing to work but i need some help please

name = input("what is your name? ")
print("hello " + name)

How do i Incorporate something like the above code into the bot command I have been using below so the bot will ask your name, and then reply hello plus the name that was input

@bot.command()
async def test (ctx):
await ctx.send(test complete)

If anyone can write it as a working line it would be amazing my brain has been fried trying to work this out today lol

[potent spear]

you'd use the wait_for method for this
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Client.wait_for

it's a method the client/bot object has

it can basically wait for a response from a user and take that input

OR you could use forms nowadays, if the question the person has to fill in is always the same and doesn't change based on previous answers

[thorn horizon]

Brilliant thank you will go look at how to do that

[potent spear]

a discord form would look like this:

[swift acorn]

@bot.tree.command(name="requestpromotion", description="Request a promotion to the next tier.")
async def requestpromotion(interaction : discord.Interaction):
    guild = bot.get_guild(1039553876778561536)
    check_if_cc = guild.get_member(interaction.user.id)
    if check_if_cc == None:
        await interaction.response.send_message("You cannot use this command.", ephemeral=True)
        return
    dm_channel = await interaction.user.create_dm()
    if not interaction.channel.id == dm_channel.id:
        await interaction.response.send_message("Please use this command in DMs!", ephemeral=True)
        return
    
    await interaction.response.send_modal(promotionrequestmodal())```

Getting this error from this command, not sure what it is 

Command 'requestpromotion' raised an exception: HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In data.components: Must be between 1 and 5 in length.

[smoky sinew]

this is the wrong part of the code, you need to show the modal

[swift acorn]

class promotionrequestmodal(ui.Modal, title = "Request Tier Promotion"):
    channel_link = ui.TextInput(label="Channel to evalute", style=discord.TextStyle.short, placeholder="Your channel link", required=True, max_length=200)
    analytic_attachments = ui.TextInput(label="Channel analytics for past 2 months.", style=discord.TextStyle.long, placeholder="Analytics image links", required=True, max_length=200)
    additional_info = ui.TextInput(label="Additional Info", style=discord.TextStyle.long, placeholder="Any additional info you want to give", required=False, max_length=2000)

    channel_link = channel_link.value
    analytic_attachments = analytic_attachments.value
    additional_info = additional_info.value
    async def on_submit(self, interaction : discord.Interaction):
        embed = discord.Embed(
            color=discord.Colour.from_rgb(34, 255, 221),
            title="Promotion Request",
            description=f"""
[Channel To Evaluate]({self.channel_link})

**Additional Text**
{self.additional_info}"""
        )
        embed.set_author(name=f"{interaction.user} ({interaction.user.id})", icon_url=interaction.user.avatar)

        guild = bot.get_guild(1039553876778561536)
        channel = guild.get_channel(1110895460090118194)

        await channel.send(embed=embed)
        await channel.send(f"**Analytics (Past 2 Months):**\n{self.analytic_attachments}")
        await interaction.response.send_message("Thank you for submitting a request! It has been sent to our team and will be reviewed as soon as possible.")

[smoky sinew]

channel_link = channel_link.value
analytic_attachments = analytic_attachments.value
additional_info = additional_info.value

what is this

[swift acorn]

getting their value? or do the variables just contain that automatically

[smoky sinew]

yes but you do that in on_submit, not in the class

[swift acorn]

ah okay thank you

[smoky sinew]

remove that part of the code and use {self.channel_link.value} instead

[swift acorn]

gotcha tysm!!

I don't get errors sometimes man like how does that error explain that the issue is here

[smoky sinew]

avatar needs to be bytes, not URL

pretty sure i already said that to you...

[dry kelp]

to me?

Never

[smoky sinew]

still if you looked at the docs you would see the correct way of using it

!d discord.TextChannel.create_webhook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.create\_webhook

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

Creates a webhook for this channel.

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

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

[dry kelp]

Bro.. i have it open

i just remember using .url in order to get the bot avatar

[smoky sinew]

yeah that's an asset

[dry kelp]

i got hella shit open tbh

[smoky sinew]

oh right you're using disnake

[dry kelp]

Yeah

[dry kelp]

quick question

why does it create 3 times?

there's only 1 isistance running

[smoky sinew]

that part of the code is probably running multiple times then

[dry kelp]

it is not

[swift acorn]

Also I have this check for a wait_for function

dm_channel = await interaction.user.create_dm()
def check(message):
        if interaction.channel.id == dm_channel.id and message.author == interaction.user:
            return True
        else:
            return False

Butt it still returns True even if the message is sent by that user in a server channel which the bot is in too

[smoky sinew]

why are you even using create_dm

discord.py calls it automatically

[dry kelp]

fixed

works x)

[potent spear]

def check_for_something_specific_because_i_like_descriptive_functions(message):
    return interaction.channel.id == dm_channel.id and message.author == interaction.user```

[swift acorn]

interaction.user.dm_channel?

[smoky sinew]

no

you can just do interaction.user.send

[swift acorn]

oh yeah true

[swift acorn]

I did not know that the order made a difference -.-

[potent spear]

I didn't change the order

[swift acorn]

oh nvm yeah

so wait what is the difference?

[potent spear]

all I did was change

if poop == "nice":
 return True
else:
 return False```

to 
```py
return poop == "nice"```
see how much shorter that is for the exact same thing?

[swift acorn]

yeah but it doesn't change that it is not working

[potent spear]

you're not showing is where you're using that function

[swift acorn]

channel_link = await bot.wait_for("message", check=check, timeout=240)
        channel_link = channel_link.content

[potent spear]

also "it doesn't work" should be something you don't want to say
let's say I say "my browser doesn't work"
what do you understand by that? indeed, almost nothing other than something is wrong

[potent spear]

so the timeout exception gets thrown?

[swift acorn]

Nope, I wrote at the bottom here, if the user sends a message in a server it takes that too, even tho it is not supposed to because the check makes it so

[potent spear]

you have to work with the message parameter in that check function

if message.channel.id == <user_dm_channel_id> and ...

that'll do 😉

[swift acorn]

ah yes sorry that is such a obvious mistake
Thank you very much

[smoky sinew]

or just do ```py
isinstance(message.channel, discord.DMChannel) and message.channel.recipient == user

[dry kelp]

I've finished the entire antinuke setup

was a pain...

@smoky sinew Could i dm you ?

[smoky sinew]

my dms are closed

as it says in my about me

[dry kelp]

mind accepting my friend request?

[smoky sinew]

what's so confusing about "my dms are closed"

[dry kelp]

Yeah but if we become friends, they won't be closed anymore

[smoky sinew]

or you can ask literally anywhere else like here or my discord server

[dry kelp]

I will in a minute.

I am looking rn thru disnake docs

and i don't see the permissions to manage sounboards

like there's nothing in the docs

[smoky sinew]

i don't think disnake has that feature yet, when it does it will probably be called Permission.manage_expressions

discord.py called it create_expressions actually

[dry kelp]

@smoky sinew Asked them and they have a version 2.9

what was the command to update?

[potent spear]

I think just installing it again will overwrite the previous version

but uhm, python -m pip install --upgrade <package_name> it is

[snow coral]

how can i make it so only a certain user use a command

[smoky sinew]

write a check for it

!d discord.ext.commands.check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.check

@discord.ext.commands.check(predicate)```
A decorator that adds a check to the [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") or its subclasses. These checks could be accessed via [`Command.checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command.checks "discord.ext.commands.Command.checks").

These checks should be predicates that take in a single parameter taking a [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context"). If the check returns a `False`-like value then during invocation a [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure") exception is raised and sent to the [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") event.

If an exception should be thrown in the predicate then it should be a subclass of [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError"). Any exception not subclassed from it will be propagated while those subclassed will be sent to [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error").

[dry kelp]

How can i send a message using a webhook url?

[snow coral]

i use https://discohook.org/

[dry kelp]

i need it for bot logs x)

[snow coral]

ohhh

@ mudkip#0001 is like the smartest one here so u could probably ask him

lol

[vocal snow]

!d discord.Webhook.from_url

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Webhook.from\_url

classmethod from_url(url, *, session=..., client=..., bot_token=None)```
Creates a partial [`Webhook`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Webhook "discord.Webhook") from a webhook URL.

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

[vocal snow]

make a Webhook object with this, then use webhook.send

[dry sedge]

How can I join a discord group dm call with python

[smoky sinew]

you can't

[dry sedge]

Is it possible with any coding language

because ive been looking for this for years

[sick birch]

No

[smoky sinew]

it is possible, but would be against discord's terms of service

[dry sedge]

im not using it for illegal purposes I just want to accomplish the fact that I made that because that is the only thing that I have not made

[smoky sinew]

does not matter it would still be against TOS

[trim barn]

Is Discord.PY being developed again?

or does PyCord run the show now

[rugged shadow]

yes

[smoky sinew]

pycord has never ran the show lmao

[dry kelp]

Is it possible to display how long ago in embed footer?

[smoky sinew]

no

[trim barn]

Should I use nextcord, pycord, or discord.py for future projects?

[smoky sinew]

what about disnake

[trim barn]

i stopped caring about discord bot development before 2022

so not sure about what came afterI

I want to do a Python project or maybe something in JavaScript now that I'm majoring in CS

Java is not a suitable language for discord bot creation so idk

[smoky sinew]

you are probably going to find more people who can help you with discord.py but it still doesn't mean it's better

[smoky sinew]

i've made a bot in java before what do you mean

[trim barn]

not ideal I mean
It's possible

[smoky sinew]

you're probably referring to javascript though i just realized i didn't read your message

[trim barn]

plus I am more comfortable with Python

Java... the OOP lang

[trim barn]

lmao ur good
JS was named that way bc Java was most popular lang at the time and the devs wanted to ride off the coattails

[smoky sinew]

yep lol

i use java a lot for projects that wouldn't work well in python

i would recommend scrolling through discord.py disnake or nextcord docs to see which one seems easier for you

[vale wing]

You can use embed timestamp

The timestamp arg in the constructor

[dry kelp]

there's none

[vale wing]

That's called a method not a constructor

embed = discord.Embed(timestamp=datetime_obj)```

!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...

[smoky sinew]

no it can't display relative time

[raw quail]

Outputting one of the functions in fred_data.py via the first select option results in an interaction failed error in discord. however, if i make and execute a command like the second picture, it works normally. what could be the problem?

If i use the select option function, does the interaction failed error occur because the function doesn't wait for the time to receive and visualize the data while the function is operating?

[storm skiff]

Repeating code 🤢

[vale wing]

Indeed

send_message is the same in every condition yet not brought out

And that if chain can be done with dict

[raw quail]

hmm..

solved. i modified to add interaction.defer() and interaction.fllowup.send instead of interaction.send_message

[slate swan]

how to make my bot send messages like this

[smoky sinew]

ephemeral keyword argument in discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[slate swan]

discord.InteractionResponse.send_message("test")

[smoky sinew]

no

that doesn't mean you have to include discord.InteractionResponse in your code

you have to get an InteractionResponse object by using interaction.response and also awaiting it

[slate swan]

k i did it

worked

another problem

every time i run !clear

i have this error

!f-string

[unkempt canyon]

Format-strings

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

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

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

[slate swan]

also, it ignores this line ```py
await ctx.send(f'Έσβησα ', {amount}, ' Μηνύματα.')

fix your f-string signature

done

[slate swan]

?

fixed

then show fixed code

  await ctx.send(f"Έσβησα ', {amount}, ' Μηνύματα.")

that is not how you create f-strings

bruh

[slate swan]

look at the example

i forgot

its my old code, its there since i started python

!e f"Έσβησα ', {amount}, ' Μηνύματα."

1 last question

[smoky sinew]

wait but it would work

[slate swan]

how to add more selections

[slate swan]

shut, discord formatting lost me

[smoky sinew]

just add more?

[slate swan]

what have you done so far that you have two?

!paste

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ociloqafox

(ignore the button, its in another message)

[slate swan]

add another SelectOption to options list

like you did before

add like a 3rd?

select = Select(options=[
discord.SelectOption(label="Support Ticket", value="01", emoji="📄", description="Open a support ticket."),
discord.SelectOption(label="Donate ticket", value="02", emoji="💸", description="Open a Donate ticket.")
])

there you create select

add another option

[smoky sinew]

why does everyone like instantiating View directly instead of subclassing it

[slate swan]

cuz better

[smoky sinew]

your code is basically unreadable

[slate swan]

no idea

[smoky sinew]

you can't easily see where this separates

whereas you could split it up into different functions

[slate swan]

  select = Select(options=[
  discord.SelectOption(label="Support Ticket", value="01", emoji="📄", description="Open a support ticket."),
  discord.SelectOption(label="Donate ticket", value="02", emoji="💸", description="Open a Donate ticket."),
  discord.SelectOption(label="SR ticket", value="02", emoji="⭐", description="Become SR.")

wait

i forgot 03

  select = Select(options=[
  discord.SelectOption(label="Support Ticket", value="01", emoji="📄", description="Open a support ticket."),
  discord.SelectOption(label="Donate ticket", value="02", emoji="💸", description="Open a Donate ticket."),
  discord.SelectOption(label="SR ticket", value="03", emoji="⭐", description="Become SR.")
])

add like elif select.values[0] == "02":

@slate swan

show me the error

theres no error, but it shows this

if there is no error then whats the problem

no problem

the problem is my question

[north kiln]

also why did you replace all elifs with ifs

[slate swan]

i didnt

[smoky sinew]

but you did

[slate swan]

only that one

[smoky sinew]

why

[slate swan]

or not

[slate swan]

idk

ty btw

@smoky sinew

can i ask u smth

[smoky sinew]

you just did

[slate swan]

can i ask u 3 questions

i already asked 2

[smoky sinew]

sure

[slate swan]

Okay so

Im making a bot for a customer, and he told me to: When a user joins a specific vc, he wants to move him in another one

how to do that?

[smoky sinew]

voice rooms or just the moving part?

[slate swan]

let me show u

Lol

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.on_voice_state_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_voice\_state\_update

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

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

[slate swan]

He wants this

[smoky sinew]

well that's not just moving to a new channel

you have to create and delete it too

but just use the on_voice_state_update event

[slate swan]

yeah

i wish i knew how

[smoky sinew]

have you never used an event listener before?

[slate swan]

the only events i used

is

[smoky sinew]

it doesn't matter which events you use they all work the same

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
  role = discord.utils.get(member.guild.roles, name = "Civilian")
  await member.add_roles(role)
  channel = bot.get_channel(1091042545133437015)

still

idk

[upbeat otter]

you first have to create the channel too

!d discord.Guild.create_text_channel

[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...

``` can someone help me im making an anti spam system but its not working the guild id is in the db

i think discord is having problems

[storm skiff]

Why?

[formal basin]

nvm

[formal basin]

no errors

this was working until i switched the code a bit

and then put it back to normal

[storm skiff]

I doubt await message.author.timeout(duration) ever worked

Since you need the member object

But a lot of your code is undefined, hard to know what's wrong

[slate swan]

Add a few print statements inbetween your code to narrow down the cause.

[formal basin]

ok

[formal basin]

its not printing

[wanton quiver]

can ayone say how to make an embed colour bar less in discord py

[storm skiff]

To make it look like it disappears? You use the color code of the background

[wanton quiver]

no no

there is a setting which we can do

[storm skiff]

Then use that one haha

I don't know one

If you do color=None it will still use a color

[slate swan]

Are you sure that whatever event/function your code is inside of, is actually being called?

[formal basin]

yes

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[formal basin]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/geyokonebo

full code

[plain pollen]

@wanton quiver are you sure that person isn't just using the same color code as the embed? try switching to light theme and checking

[naive briar]

I see no where in that link you sent that matches the code you sent

[formal basin]

it is the full code in the file

[naive briar]

I don't think I'm that blind

[slate swan]

It's in his on_message event, around line 300. It's best to only send the code that's failing though @formal basin. Along with other relevant stuff.

I think Discord servers are slow today

[formal basin]

should i send the commands to setup this anti spam

[slate swan]

Anyway I can't tell you what's going wrong so we're either both missing something obvious or there's an issue outside your code (DB issue perhaps).
Best bet is to probably do as I said earlier, add a print statement after any line of code that may be error-prone, or after any conditional statements. Check they're actually running as expected, and check variables against their expected values.

[naive briar]

Stop replying with the same message

I'm having issues but it's not sending my messages twice or anything, though I heard somewhere it was an issue with the mobile client

discord itself is experiencing major lag right now, i doubt they're doing it on purpose

[smoky sinew]

yeah it's with the app

[naive briar]

Eh, why would someone try to reply another time before the first message is sent anyway

[formal basin]

maybe this the reason why my anti spam aint working

[formal basin]

oh im on the laptop app

Good job

[lean harbor]

Can discord bots delete channel

[tawdry gazelle]

discord is back?

[storm skiff]

Yes

[smoky sinew]

!d discord.GuildChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

No way, José.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[lean harbor]

my bot got hacked.

[storm skiff]

So?

[smoky sinew]

then take better steps to ensure it's secure

[lean harbor]

sigh. I stored it like this

[smoky sinew]

there's more to bot security than just hiding the token

[lean harbor]

they only deleted all the channels they didn't ban the 1k members

but still a big loss.

[smoky sinew]

what does that have to do with what i just said

[lean harbor]

i'm just telling you

[storm skiff]

You sending screenshots with 60% of your token visible for no reason says enough

[smoky sinew]

you basically re-leaked it

[slate swan]

Ouch

[lean harbor]

Noones gonna be able to see from that

[storm skiff]

No one will care enough

But it just shows your awareness of security

[lean harbor]

its my old token i already reset i

it

[storm skiff]

Ah first no one will see it, now it's the old token 👍

[lean harbor]

its both

[smoky sinew]

well

[storm skiff]

What was the point of the screenshot anyway?

[sour sand]

hi, struggling on something

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ofabekineb

on a reboot, the ticket configuration dosent save in the settings.db, any help would be great.

[north kiln]

why you reconnect after creating all the transactions

also there isn't something called REPLACE INTO

[sour sand]

can you explain a little bit better ?

[slate swan]

Guys i need help.

i made a bot and they somehow hacked it and did this

the code is not changed

how did this happen?

@smoky sinew

[smoky sinew]

huh

what happened

[slate swan]

they hacked the bot somehow

and did this to the server

[smoky sinew]

your token probably got leaked

or someone else has access to your bot ig

[radiant bough]

What do you need help with tho

[slate swan]

how?

[smoky sinew]

are you using a VPS?

[slate swan]

what is a vps

[smoky sinew]

what are you using to host your bot

[slate swan]

replit keep_alive with uptime robot

[north kiln]

[radiant bough]

makes sense ngl

[north kiln]

can you actually get your token stolen through replit

[radiant bough]

someone viewed your repl and got your token?

[slate swan]

but how did they see my repl

[upbeat otter]

if you put it in the wrong place yes 💀

[smoky sinew]

because replit makes all your code public by default i guess lmao

[naive briar]

If you hard-coded it in your code, yes

[upbeat otter]

,

[naive briar]

But they support environment variables, so you should use that instead

[radiant bough]

This @slate swan ^

[slate swan]

token = os.environ.get("TOKEN")
bot.run(TOKEN)

This works?

[upbeat otter]

yes

[slate swan]

is there any way to make anti-nuke system?

Yep there is

[smoky sinew]

or just don't be dumb with where you share your bot token

that's all it takes

[slate swan]

i dont share my bot token

my token is only on replit

But my code using raw token is public

Pretty much the same as giving it to anyone

Also replit is not made for Discord bots

[slate swan]

i use it just for the hosting

And as I said, it's not made for that

[storm skiff]

What else could you use replit for?

[smoky sinew]

he uses it for development and then clones it to his VPS

[storm skiff]

I oversaw that basic logic

[north kiln]

I haven't hosted on a vps yet but I got confused for all the product names on those cloud platforms

[upbeat otter]

hosting discord bots*
it's good for making them at least

[warm vigil]

salve rapaziada

[north kiln]

Don't know which one I should choose if it doesn't straight up say vps tbh

[warm vigil]

tudo baum com vcs?

[storm skiff]

I like ubuntu

[warm vigil]

squarecloud

[upbeat otter]

what square cloud

[storm skiff]

How about locally?

[warm vigil]

hosting

[upbeat otter]

I wasn't talking about hosting

[storm skiff]

Yeah but why not develop it locally

[warm vigil]

nao entendi

[smoky sinew]

you just need compute

[upbeat otter]

everybody does not have a pc
or even a potato pc

replit is a good choice imo

[smoky sinew]

which cloud service are you using @north kiln

[storm skiff]

I wonder what % that applies to

[upbeat otter]

online editors*

[smoky sinew]

i'll tell you what they call it

[north kiln]

I haven't chosen one lmao

Just looking for prices

[warm vigil]

concordo

[upbeat otter]

not more than a couple but we dont talk about that 💀

[storm skiff]

My pc is dog but can easily develop bots locally

[upbeat otter]

pc cannot be a dog

pc is pc.

[storm skiff]

So I can't imagine it being a general advice you should give

[warm vigil]

pichau é a melhor loja de pc

[smoky sinew]

it's basically just a code editor just run vim or even sublime text lol

[north kiln]

Please speak English

[warm vigil]

pycharm é melhor

[north kiln]

@warm vigil

[warm vigil]

salve

[warm vigil]

hi?

[upbeat otter]

yes

why does everybody come to use replit in the first place

and that too just for discord bots

[smoky sinew]

only to host it

more importantly people don't have money to run a bot forever

[upbeat otter]

what's the point of running a bot forever

💀

[harsh marsh]

Hi I did a command to remove the role from a user but I added a condition if user does not have the role print failed to remove the role but even if I have the role I can’t remove it from myself.
See the screenshot for the code
Thanks for help ^^

[sick birch]

role is a discord.Role object, but name= kwarg is a str

So it'll always be None

You just need to do

if role in member.roles:
  # user has role
else:
  # user doesn't have role

[sick birch]

In your else statement you also don't need to use utils.get, you already have role

And you don't need to repeat the .remove_roles twice

await member.remove_roles(role, reason=reason)

[harsh marsh]

yes i corrected that

thanks for your help man

[slate swan]

how to make like when a user interacts with a button, the bot changes their roles?

await member.add_role("role")```?

[formal basin]

await interaction.member.add_role(role)``` i might be wrong

[slate swan]

u are wrong

[formal basin]

let me see your code

im pretty sure you need it in a class

[slate swan]

im just asking, i wont add it in a code

[formal basin]

oh

[potent spear]

only add_roles exists iirc

[reef charm]

Hey so i currently have discord bot written in python and its hosted on a server via VSC. I execute the code and it runs perfectly fine but sometimes my server restarts or something changed and the bot isnt running anymore

Is there a way to see that your code is running fine 24/7 and otherwise u get some sort of notification? or do i need to build that into my code itself

[twilit grotto]

make another script to see if your bot file is running(?) idk maybe i misunderstood you

[karmic mulch]

The classic approach to running a Python script 24/7 is to run it through supervisor.
It will autostart your process when it hangs, start it after a server restart etc.
There also is a plugin to allow monitoring via HTTP
http://supervisord.org/index.html
https://superlance.readthedocs.io/en/latest/httpok.html
Supervisor should be available on most Linux distros

And when you want to get notifications on your mobile or emails you can use this service to monitor it:
https://uptimerobot.com/

Alternatively you can build and add your own HTTP service. For that I can recommend aiohttp, which has a simple to setup http server that can run in the same event loop as your bot.

[fervent pebble]

Hello guys

is there a way i can create like a bot that loads messages from my whatsapp and then sends it too my discord

note: Whatsapp wont have to be on my phone or laptop

[tired pine]

No because you can't access someone's whatsapp messages from an external device

[reef charm]

You the goat

ty so much

[smoky sinew]

can setting allowed_mentions in send override the one passed to discord.Client?

[potent spear]

If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by allowed_mentions are used instead.
(this is extra info in the parameters section of .send() method)
TL;DR: your kwarg in send will overwrite the "default" ones you've set in your discord.Client

[sick birch]

yes

[smoky sinew]

👍

[vocal snow]

[drifting arrow]

If that's to me, no.

It's fine. I eventually found the right answer on stackoverflow

[slate swan]

Your question is regarding basic Python and JSON, even if you use it in a bot it's not a bot development question.

[drifting arrow]

Because the general chat and the help channels tend to move too fast and my question gets ignored 😛

It's fine tho. I found my answers online.

[slate swan]

Not a reason to use a channel that isn't related to your question

[drifting arrow]

It's only an issue if someone else was utilizing this channel for its intended use.

[slate swan]

No. Here again, a channel being inactive doesn't change the rules for said channel and makes it useable for any random questions just because you believe so.

Please take discussions about this server to a relevant channel guys

Thank you, parrot 🦜

[smoky sinew]

since it's a beginner question someone will probably answer it quicker

but your issue is probably with encoding

[smoky sinew]

just use the right channel it's not that hard

[slate swan]

Look 1 message below or 2 above the message you've replied to

They already got their answer and, hopefully, understand channels have topics - no point on getting over it again I guess

Whats this error

[primal orchid]

print("Happy Pride Month")

[slate swan]

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

Means target is None

How did this happen, it was working yesterday and i didnt change the code

You tell us, you have the code

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/etulehikoc

Get your category by ID, not by name

The issue is likely that role is None

Lemme double check the role

Yeap

Should get channels etc. by IDs though

nah it happened bc they nuked the server and the name of the role and the id changed

How to make like

if a user interacts with a button

the bot dms him

Add a callback to the button and send a message in that callback

await interaction.response.send_message
```?

Or

Well there you'll send in the channel, so no

Just like you'd usually send a DM

!d discord.User.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.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**.

interaction.user.send()

[slate swan]

Though you'll need to send some interaction response

Unless you don't really care about the interaction failed error showing up for the user

[slate swan]

main.py:132: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Messageable.send' was never awaited
  interaction.user.send(embed=embed)
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

wait

im fr so dumb i didnt await

[vocal snow]

yeah thats exactly what the first line of the error says lol

[slate swan]

Alright i got a question

imagine i have the command !clear

how can i make it so people with a specific role can run this command

?

[vocal snow]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_role

@discord.ext.commands.has_role(item)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

If the message is invoked in a private message context then the check will return `False`.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") if the user is missing a role, or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure")...

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
