Programming feels like a lucky guess game

you can choose names for your varriables but not for predefined classes

[alpine oar]

fr

[slate swan]

Though it isn't

[alpine oar]

i forgot a whole abt python

[slate swan]

If the class is named Button

[alpine oar]

mind helping me

me dumb as hell

[alpine oar]

yea

[slate swan]

You may want to create a variable button that is an instance of Button

So button = Button(...), just like that

if you dont understand basic python knowledge why are you starting a discord bot project its not a good idea for a beginner

[alpine oar]

but i did this label="📥 Create Ticket", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green

[alpine oar]

i did know the basics ☠️

[slate swan]

yeah i just saw

Forgetting how to create a variable is probably some sign of Alzheimer

[alpine oar]

fr lmao

[left dew]

hello, i keep getting weird webhook errors, but i dont use webhooks. it doesnt allow some users to interact with a button:

    data = await adapter.edit_original_interaction_response(
  File "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\webhook\async_.py", line 219, in request raise NotFound(response, data)
discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found 
(error code: 10015): Unknown Webhook```

[alpine oar]

what is that

[slate swan]

i don't use webhooks

Yes you do, interaction responses are webhooks

[alpine oar]

it was so long ago i coded

[left dew]

i know thats why i am stumped

[slate swan]

There is your response either way

[slate swan]

Not Found means most likely the message was deleted

[alpine oar]

yea thanks

[left dew]

when a user presses the button, it sends en ephmeral message whilst its thinking then edits it when the thinking is done, does it edit it too quickly?

[alpine oar]

i think ima make an whole new bot and start over so my mind refreshes

[slate swan]

I'd go over Python basics again before doing that

[alpine oar]

yea ofc

[left dew]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

show code so i can see

[left dew]

of the button?

[slate swan]

yes

[calm timber]

@thin raft it works!! Thank You!!

[slate swan]

first thing that i notice is that arguments order is wrong in this line async def button_callback2(self, button, interaction_1st:discord.Interaction):

interaction should be before button

[left dew]

okay

[waxen notch]

I need help. I'm trying to make a sweepstakes bot for my Discord server, but when I add the giveaway feature I didn't want to start because of a bug in the console.

console:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 1, in <module> import discord File "/home/runner/RustyDirtyDefinitions/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/__init__.py", line 25, in <module> from .client import Client File "/home/runner/RustyDirtyDefinitions/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 27, in <module> import asyncio File "/home/runner/RustyDirtyDefinitions/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/asyncio/__init__.py", line 21, in <module> from .base_events import * File "/home/runner/RustyDirtyDefinitions/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/asyncio/base_events.py", line 296 future = tasks.async(future, loop=self)

[slate swan]

can you show full traceback

[left dew]

  File "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\ui\view.py", line 414, in _scheduled_task
    await item.callback(interaction)
  File "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\sparkles_bot\main.py", line 315, in button_callback2

    raise NotFound(response, data)
discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10015): Unknown Webhook```

[slate swan]

yeah so looks like the error comes from the cooldown message

possibly cause you are using edit_original_response

[left dew]

is there something i should change it to?

[slate swan]

you may want to try using interaction.response.send_message() or if it does not work interaction.followup.send()

[left dew]

await interaction_1st.response.send_message(content=f"**Slow Down! You're on cooldown.**")```

that?

[slate swan]

try and see

[left dew]

okay

[left dew]

ill lyk, its weird. it works for some users but not for others

[slate swan]

maybe other users are not on cooldown

[slate swan]

show full traceback

and code

[waxen notch]

The code is very extensive

[slate swan]

then show what you added and made it stop working

[upbeat ice]

full error?

[slate swan]

bot.loop.create_task(winner_picker()) pretty sure this may cause error but will know when you provide traceback

[tidal folio]

You staff?

Accept add me

[slate swan]

no im not staff

[slate swan]

i dont accept dms if you need any help ask here

[open narwhal]

is there a limit to how many options can be shown in the options section, such as the add and rename option

[upbeat ice]

25

[open narwhal]

thank you very much

[slate swan]

its good to check docs always https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application-commands#application-command-object-application-command-option-structure

[open narwhal]

tyty ill do that

[slate swan]

choices? array of application command option choice Choices for STRING, INTEGER, and NUMBER types for the user to pick from, max 25

[open narwhal]

but its 25 at a time right, there can be more than 25 options but it will only render 25 at a time. Am I correct

[slate swan]

no max 25

[upbeat ice]

Last I remember if you try to render more than 25 it errors

[slate swan]

when it says max 25 it is max

[open narwhal]

when you type into the field and the options change, is that considered different thing from the pic I posted

[upbeat ice]

It's the same field so it as well can only show 25

You can create an auto complete function and show 25 different options as the user enters text

[slate swan]

i belive you can have more than 25 when you use autocomplete

Same field, so no, still 25

26 🧐

[open narwhal]

I see, thank you guys

wait I think I should mention the use case in case you guys have an recommendations

I wanted a command like the screenshot I posted above
and when the user types something, matching names from a list of around 1.2k unique strings show up.

Is there any way to make this work

[slate swan]

Hello, just wanted to check if this was an appropriate place to ask for some guidance on a problem I have with a discord bot I've put together?

For questions and discussions relating to Discord bot development with discord.py and other relevant Python libraries.

Not sure

To be honest the fact I can't read has probably contributed to the issue I'm having

Throw it away and we'll see

[upbeat ice]

Yes, you would use an auto complete function and you would essentially use fuzzy matching to compare the current string to the strings you want to display and then display the top 25. I would also implement a caching system.

[open narwhal]

[slate swan]

like i said you can use autocomplete

[open narwhal]

sorry I missed that, my bad 🥴

[slate swan]

Trying to think how to word my question. Basically I have a really simple bot, one of its functions is to pull data from a small dataset when a user uses a command. The dataset consists of a list of 'players' and then 5 different stats for each player.

The command '!fact' responds with a random player and a random stat for that player

'!fact (player name)' responds with a random stat for that specific player

'!fact (player name) (stat)' responds with the specific stat for the specific player.

The problem I'm having is that there are two stats that are two words, I don't know what is causing the issue but when I use the command '!fact (player name) (two-word stat)' The bot responds to say that, paraphrasing, "(player name two-word stat) does not exist".

I.e. the bot thinks I'm looking for a player with the name of all four words combined.

All the single-word stats work fine, even for players with more than 3 names.

I've tried fiddling about with chatGPT to see if that could help but just went round in circles. I've tried making the two-word stats one word then creating a dictionary so that when the user puts the two words in it will know what they're after and it will format the response correctly. But that didn't work either.

I'm a complete novice, hence the probably daft question, apologies.

[upbeat ice]

Any code we can follow?

😭

[slate swan]

Is there a way to post it in a proper.. like.. format?

!paste yep

Guess you can copy that piece of code into a file and send it, or use the ```
(your code goes here)

[slate swan]

Cheers, I used the paste thing above so it's now in that link

[midnight oracle]

Oh, okay

[upbeat ice]

What are you passing in for query

[slate swan]

Sorry, I don't know what that means 🙃

[midnight oracle]

hehehe

[slate swan]

Nextcord good ?

first project, haven't done any theory since about 2 hours on codecademy 3 years ago

[upbeat ice]

What arguments are you providing when you run your command

[sick birch]

Depends on what you're looking for in a bot framework

[slate swan]

(player name) (stat)

or just (player name)

Or no arguments (which just picks a random player and random stat)

[slate swan]

General commands and moderation and fun

[sick birch]

Those are stuff you can make. What are you looking for in the framework? Support? Ease of use? Popularity?

Documentation?

[slate swan]

The arguments that are causing the issue are:

'(player name) yellow cards' and

'(player name) red cards'

[slate swan]

Documentation

[sick birch]

Hm. You might prefer disnake

Though personally I would recommend discord.py (even if the docs aren't very good) since there's more support from more people that use it

[slate swan]

Ok ty, me too i remmend discord.py

[upbeat ice]

.split() is splitting those into "yellow" and "cards"

[slate swan]

Ok that makes sense

[midnight oracle]

How difficult is it to make a moderation bot?

Like, for a 50 people server

[upbeat ice]

Depends what you want it to do

[slate swan]

Nextcord top

[upbeat ice]

Anywhere from very easy to intermediate

[midnight oracle]

Sounds like something fun to try, uh?

[slate swan]

And discord.py ?

[slate swan]

I dont Like it maybe you will

[upbeat ice]

Sure, I'd outline what you want it to do first

[midnight oracle]

Well, just for learning, hmm, a greetings system (in & out), bad words detection, mute system, ban, aaand well, I guess some fun like say commands or similar

What you think?

Eating the documentation xd

[upbeat ice]

Yeah I think that would be a good challenge for learning

[midnight oracle]

:D

[upbeat ice]

Look into databases

[midnight oracle]

:D -> your profile face :D

[midnight oracle]

?

Jsons could do it?

[upbeat ice]

You'll need a database to manage mutes and bans

JSON "could" do it but it doesn't mean it should lol

[midnight oracle]

Yeah xD

But, but I will test it in a friend's server, no more than 50 as I said, so I guess I can try first with JSON

And then, Docker maybe?

(noob moment ^^)

[upbeat ice]

For databases I recommend PostgreSQL or SQLite

[midnight oracle]

Never used it before

Something new to learn

great :v

[upbeat ice]

Exactly!

[slate swan]

Still can't fix the issue, but it's my problem. I shouldn't be launching straight into a project with zero knowledge of how things actually work. It's how I learn usually but I guess I need some theory embedded first. Thanks for your help.

[potent spear]

have you checked out the "consume rest" operator?

where your command arguments would look like
ctx, player, *, stat
instead of
ctx, player, stat

which means that when using
!fact <player> eats beans daily
when using the first example arguments
stat will be equal to "eats beans daily"
when using the second example arguments
stat will be equal to "eats"

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html#why-do-my-arguments-require-quotes

[slate swan]

Thanks, yea I think I already have that operator;

async def fact(ctx, *, query=None):

all commands in that cog? or just 1?
are you sure your cog is even loaded?

[main wind]

stop askin dumb questions just google it lol

[slate swan]

is there an example for a .py

that opens a modal when a button is clicked?

[sick birch]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/modals/basic.py here's one that opens on slash command, but opening it in a button is very similar

I have the same system for some of my internal tooling

[slate swan]

i have it open when i can do / but idk if im being dumb but my brain isnt working on how to get it to open with buttons

[sick birch]

You just do the interaction.response.send_modal stuff but inside the button callback

[slate swan]

something like this?

class Test(discord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self):
        super().init__()
        
    @discord.ui.button(label="Test", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def testbutton(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button:discord.ui.Button):
        await interaction.response.send_modal(Test())

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def supportsystem(ctx):
    view = Test
    about = discord.Embed(title="Moon Solutions", description="This is our placeholder for our support system while we work on it!")
    about.set_thumbnail(url="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1117391977516896370/1120006300835778641/6665-moon-foil-balloon.png")
    about.set_footer(text="Moon Solutions")
    await ctx.send(embed=about, view=view())

[sick birch]

You can't have buttons in modals

You need 2 separate classes: one for the view containing the button, and one for the modal

[winter hare]

im getting errors/tracebacks when trying to load in cogs
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/aribipipoj

[turbid condor]

You are not setting up your cog 2

That is what the error is telling u

[winter hare]

so im not setting it up right?

    await client.add_cog(cog2(client))

[turbid condor]

This is correct tho

Make sure that this inline with your class cog2

[winter hare]

does it have to be within the class?

its aligned with the class cog2

[turbid condor]

Then it's ok

Is your other cog loading?

[winter hare]

no

im confused because it worked before

[naive briar]

!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.

[winter hare]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/evorilumel

[naive briar]

Is your rip command inside a class (or cog)

If it is, you need to add a self argument as the first parameter

[winter hare]

the commands name is test and it is inside a cog and self is the first parameter

    def __init__(self, client: commands.Bot):
        self.client = client

    @app_commands.command(name='test', description='interesting')
    async def test(interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(content='interesting')

[naive briar]

Really?

[naive briar]

That clearly doesn't have self as the first parameter

[turbid condor]

And in here too no self in your function

[winter hare]

where exactly should i put it?

[naive briar]

As the first parameter??

async def test(self, interaction):
    ...

[turbid condor]

Before interaction:discord.Interaction it's a required arg for cogs

[naive briar]

I already said it

[winter hare]

ok it works but it shows a different traceback now
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cuxerufatu.py

[naive briar]

Show your full code of the extension file

[winter hare]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import app_commands



class cog2(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client: commands.Bot):
        self.client = client

    @app_commands.command(name='test', description='interesting')
    async def tests(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(content='interesting')



async def setup(client: commands.Bot) -> None:
    await client.add_cog(cog2(client))

[winter hare]

also idk why thats there i had been deleted it

[naive briar]

What file is this from?

Because your traceback came from cog1.py

[winter hare]

Do u need the main

[silk wasp]

this might be a issue since you are using .ext import commands and app_commands i would suggest this code instead

import discord
from discord.ext import commands


class Cog2(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client: commands.Bot):
        self.client = client

    @discord.slash_command(
        name='test',
        description='interesting'
    )
    async def tests(self, interaction: commands.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(content='interesting')


def setup(client: commands.Bot):
    client.add_cog(Cog2(client))

[naive briar]

There is no such thing

!d discord.app_commands.command there's only this

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.command

@discord.app_commands.command(*, name=..., description=..., nsfw=False, auto_locale_strings=True, extras=...)```
Creates an application command from a regular function.

[naive briar]

No, I asked for the extension file

[silk wasp]

sorry my mistake

or instead of slash command, you could use regular command such as the following:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands


class Cog2(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client: commands.Bot):
        self.client = client

    @commands.command(
        name='test',
        description='interesting'
    )
    async def tests(self, ctx):
        await ctx.response.send_message(content='interesting')


def setup(client: commands.Bot):
    client.add_cog(Cog2(client))

[naive briar]

Regular commands used contexts, not interactions

[winter hare]

cog1.py is where the codes from

Is there a proper extension file

[naive briar]

And this doesn't seem like discord.py

[silk wasp]

i usees nextcord lib

[naive briar]

It is an extension file

[naive briar]

If you could use load_extension to load it, then it is

[winter hare]

So do I add that in the main or the extension file

[naive briar]

What

I just asked for the code in the file

[winter hare]

its right here theres not a lot since im only testing

[naive briar]

The cog1.py file, or is that its contents?

[winter hare]

I'm confused are you asking for the full code?

That's the only code in the file

[silk wasp]

hey could you clue me in on what problem you are facing?

because after reading your previous message im lost

[winter hare]

im trying to load in a cog but it gives this traceback
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/jojogelafa

my other cog is almost the complete same and it works fine

[silk wasp]

alright, do you have a function or a for loop to load all your cogs file in your main.py?

[winter hare]

self.cogslist = ['cog1','cog2']
    
    
    async def setup_hook(self):
         for ext in self.cogslist:
            await self.load_extension(ext)

[silk wasp]

could i see your working cogs full code ? and your cog that not working full code?

[silk wasp]

ok this might not be a good idea puting file in a list and then load it. it will cause human error like typo etc. i would suggest putting all cogs in a 'cogs' folder and load all of them at once

    for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
        if filename.endswith('.py'):
            client.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')

[naive briar]

No point

[naive briar]

I'm having a difficult time trying to understand why would you have a cog named cog2 in cog1.py

[silk wasp]

tbh at this point i would rather you screenshare your project and see what wrong with it

[potent spear]

his project is rather small, just making him share the code of both the cogs he's trying to load is good enough

[silk wasp]

i see

[potent spear]

he's either not showing us the correct file, or just not saving

I opt the former

[winter hare]

ok this is cog1.py and all of the content
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ixamavuyiv

[potent spear]

seems fine

[winter hare]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/qerivugezu and heres cog2.py and its content

[winter hare]

cog2 is in its own file

im sorry im giving yall a hard time

[potent spear]

alr, can you only load 1 cog and see what that brings?

[silk wasp]

it alright

[silk wasp]

^^^^^

i think ik why

[potent spear]

your main file (containing your bot) and your cogs are all in the same folder, right?

[silk wasp]

because you define your command for test and tests as the same name name='test'

[potent spear]

good remark

but that shouldn't really give an error I'd think

[naive briar]

The error they sent said that the error came from a function named rip 🤷

[potent spear]

seems like a saving issue then

[naive briar]

But the code they sent doesn't match it

.

because that seems to be like a no

not even sure why you'd put your main file in the .vscode folder in the first place...

[silk wasp]

ExtensionNotFound(name)

is your file name same as the one you put in the list

[winter hare]

i moved them back they were before

[silk wasp]

example cog1.py

[potent spear]

alr, now save that and rerun

[winter hare]

so i cant have the file and the class name be the same?

[potent spear]

you can, don't worry about it

[silk wasp]

u can have the file name and class name be the same

im just askign is your name of your cog 1 file this: cog1.py

[silk wasp]

as shown here

under self.cogslist = ['cog1', 'cog2']

[winter hare]

yes?

[silk wasp]

ok

is your cog1 file and your main.py same directory?

meaning

Test folder
|_ main.py
|_ cog1.py

[winter hare]

yes

[silk wasp]

ok

[winter hare]

i moved the cog files back in the same file with the main file
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/avefejijuq

[silk wasp]

wait

quick question have you put your token in?

[winter hare]

is there a better way to do that like in a different folder? that was there by default so i kept it

in the file or in the haste bin?

[silk wasp]

in the file under:

client.run(TOKEN)

token will be your discord bot token string

[winter hare]

yes i just removed it from the hastebin

[silk wasp]

ah ok

[naive briar]

That looks exactly the same as the past tracebacks you sent

[winter hare]

client was underlined with yellow for some reason

[potent spear]

I mean, just do it in the project folder
vscode generates a hidden .vscode folder for the IDE's purposes, you don't want to keep your code files in there

[silk wasp]

at this point ^^^

[potent spear]

I bet my money on

1. he's either never saving
2. running a completely different file

he just has to show his project's file tree structure

do the command tree in your project folder & show us the output

[winter hare]

i am sorry sorry to all three of you

[silk wasp]

it okay.-.

[winter hare]

i didnt save 😢

[silk wasp]

.-.

[potent spear]

jackpot

[silk wasp]

pain

[winter hare]

im sorry

[potent spear]

gl hf!

[silk wasp]

hahaha it okay

[winter hare]

ok quick question is there a way to add multiple commands under a cog?

[naive briar]

Just add more

class Cog(commands.Cog):
    ...

    @commands.command()
    async def command_1(self, ctx):
        ...

    @commands.command()
    async def command_2(self, ctx):
        ...

    @commands.command()
    async def command_3(self, ctx):
        ...

[silk wasp]

personally i would just put all my cogs in a 'cog' folder to be organised

Sorry

[vale wing]

Cogs are classes you can't put them in a folder. You put cogs into python files that are called extensions and you put the extensions into folder. Yall confuse cogs and exts

[slate swan]

And I thought cogs were gears ⚙️

[slate swan]

Arent they?

technically are.

Relieved

[slate swan]

but you can put them in a folder called extensions. then label the files cog classes and in the setup u just add each cog. therefore cogs are a part of the extensions you make.

Quick question about ephemeral interactions.

async def my_command(ctx):
    await ctx.send('This is a private message.', ephemeral=True)

this test function doesnt work for me when a user does $test

[slate swan]

A bot command is not an interaction

[torpid frigate]

i understand that emphereal only works with slash commands, buttons etc? is there a way to make it work with my $ commands?

[slate swan]

Interactions are slash commands, buttons, etc.

And ephemeral only works with responses to interactions

You can't send an ephemeral message just like that

[torpid frigate]

hmm. For some context I have a command called $leaderboard, it shows the scores for the user who uses it. I got it working where the bot DMs the user but I felt that was a little annoying. Was wondering if there was a way for only the user to see the scores in the same channel/chat

[slate swan]

No

use slash commands and you're good to go

[torpid frigate]

aight ty will switch over to / from $ 👍

[slate swan]

🫢 ephemeral doesn't have to be slash commands btw.

That's exactly what was said above, thanks

!indent

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[tidal folio]

Can you answer me

[slate swan]

Yes just did

Read the embed

[tidal folio]

I don't understand this

[jade flare]

it means if you miss out on adding tabs or spaces between your lines of code you will get this error

[jade flare]

why did you leave out line 20?

[tidal folio]

Look

[tidal folio]

I fixed it but didn't fix

[jade flare]

?

[tidal folio]

Look didn't fix it

[vale wing]

That's what I said

[slate swan]

On line 19 you use 2 (or 1 idk) spaces

On line 20 you use 4+ spaces

Have the same amout of spaces or use tabs

Most basic python knowledge you should have

[tidal folio]

Didn't fix

[slate swan]

Then learn python basics

First lesson: Indentation

[slate swan]

And read/translate/screen read/whatever that message and the links related to indentation

[slate swan]

!e ```py
def f():
print(1) # two spaces
print(2) # four spaces

f()

when you choose amount of indentation you use you must be consistent

[grand hazel]

i try putting timestamp in embed but instead jt shows this

[vocal snow]

Looks like you forgot to await timestamp()?

[grand hazel]

oh ye

[tidal folio]

You own bot?

[grand hazel]

yep

[tidal folio]

Gd joob

[grand hazel]

thank you

[tidal folio]

Can you send me how to create bot Embed In Language python Disnake.py

[grand hazel]

oh sorry i use discordpy only

[tidal folio]

Oh

But send it to me because it doesn't make much difference

[vocal snow]

It should be the same as discord.py (since they are forks and I doubt there's much debate over the implementation of embeds)

[tidal folio]

@grand hazel

[grand hazel]

heres an example i found online

import discord

# Create a new client instance
client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"We have logged in as {client.user}")

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('!send_embed'):
        embed = discord.Embed(
            title="Example Embed",
            description="This is an example embedded message.",
            color=discord.Color.blue()
        )
        embed.set_author(
            name="Your Name",
            icon_url="https://example.com/your-icon.png"
        )
        embed.add_field(
            name="Field 1",
            value="Value 1",
            inline=False
        )
        embed.add_field(
            name="Field 2",
            value="Value 2",
            inline=False
        )
        embed.set_footer(text="This is a footer")

        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send(embed=embed)

# Replace 'YOUR_TOKEN' with your bot token
client.run('YOUR_TOKEN')

[tidal folio]

Ty man

[tidal folio]

Discord.py easy?

[grand hazel]

yep

[tidal folio]

Where to learn

[grand hazel]

online

anywhere actually, theres tons of information everywhere

youtube google even chathpt

[tidal folio]

Thank you So much.

[slate swan]

https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/discordpy/

[tidal folio]

Ty man

Is disanke.py better or discord.py?

[turbid condor]

which ever u are used to

[tidal folio]

Disnake.py

[turbid condor]

then use that

[tidal folio]

But many people use discord.py
They use it

[slate swan]

They use what they know

[tidal folio]

But one must be better

Wich one?

[slate swan]

Neither

Choose whatever you want

They have different ways of doing things, there's no better and worse

[tidal folio]

What problem

[slate swan]

3 problems:

1. you should not name Bot instance client its impractical
2. there is no such event named on you are possibly looking for on_ready event Event reference: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#event-reference
3. you showed your token reset it and dont do that again (also when coding on replit dont put your token right away everybody can see your code which means they can see your token as well)

[tidal folio]

But I'm watching a course

[slate swan]

and what does it change

[tidal folio]

Where can I use it Python

Only Replit

[slate swan]

well you can code on the IDE on your computer like Visual Studio Code

if you still want to stick to replit there is something called Environment Varriables

[torpid frigate]

hey so i have import interactions but its not working. done the pip install got the latest version but still getting "Import "interactions" could not be resolvedPylance"

[slate swan]

do you have more than one python version?

installed on your pc

[tidal folio]

I have only mobile

[torpid frigate]

if I do python --version It just says 3.10.8

[slate swan]

are you on windows?

[torpid frigate]

how do I check for multiple versions. im on mac

[slate swan]

go to you Applications and see if you have more than one Python installed

[torpid frigate]

nope just a 3.10 folder

[slate swan]

okay do you code in vs code?

[torpid frigate]

yea

[slate swan]

do you see Python 3.x.x on the botton of your screen when on vs code

[torpid frigate]

yes

3.10.7

[slate swan]

click on it

and you should see a prompt to choose interpreter

[torpid frigate]

yea

[slate swan]

choose the one that says 3.10.8

[torpid frigate]

done but still not working

do I have to select the path?

[slate swan]

no just select the one with 3.10.8

looks like you have many python versions installed

[torpid frigate]

ill do a clean uninstall of all my pythons

[hushed galleon]

/usr/bin/python3 is your system python so dont uninstall that

[torpid frigate]

okay I got it to work but now im running into a different issue. Use interactions.slash_command instead. they made some changes from v4 to v5. im doing a small scale test to learn it before trying to add it to my actual bot: ```from interactions import slash_command

client = interaction.Client(token="token")

@client.command(
name="ping",
description="Ping pong",
scope="server_ID"
)
async def _ping(ctx: interactions.CommandContext):
await ctx.send("Pong!")

@client.event
async def on_ready():
print("Ready!")

client.start()

the import is working but client = interaction.Client.... doesnt register.

[slate swan]

Look at your imports

[torpid frigate]

also wanted to know if I wanted my bot to be used on different servers how would I get around the scope="sserver_ID"

[slate swan]

Do you see interaction anywhere

i think you misspelled that

[torpid frigate]

no even with the s

it doesnt work

[slate swan]

ok but why would it work without s if you dont even import interaction

[torpid frigate]

was a typo when I took the screenshot

ffs damn sorry lol.

[slate swan]

class AutomaticModal(ui.Modal, title="Support"):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        
    issue = ui.TextInput(label="What is your issue?", placeholder="Please describe your issue here in as much details as possible!", style=discord.TextStyle.long)
    
    async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        if self.issue == "embed":
            await interaction.response.send_message("lol")
        else:
            embed=discord.Embed(title=" ", description="Our database wasn't able to find your issue in our database. If you would still like support on this issue, please create a ticket describing your issue!", color=discord.Color.red())

            await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, ephemeral=True, view=Button())```

is there a way to detect if a message in a modal is the same as one that is saved it will respond with a different message than if something else is typed?

[potent spear]

"is saved" where exactly?

[potent spear]

but yeah, if you can store that in some DB & react based on what your return value is, then that's perfectly possible

[slate swan]

would it not work with something like that?

[potent spear]

not if you were to restart the bot

self.issue would be None then

[slate swan]

nah ill show u rq

something like this

[potent spear]

if the issue already exists?

[slate swan]

its like an automatic support system for a bot but im just wondering if i can set it to respond with like different links when the modal input is something else?

[potent spear]

just store your issues in a DB...
if it doesn't already exist, proceed, else tell the user with an ephemeral message he would be posting a duplicate

[slate swan]

no like ur not understanding

so if they have the flagship bot in their server and they come into the "support server" then they can type the issue like "embed generating" in the modal and it will respond with a docs link or something

[potent spear]

yeah, and why wouldn't a database storing the responses based on a given input be a bad idea?

[slate swan]

would it not be possible for it to just be in the .py file?

for like "if self.issue == "embed":
await interaction.response.send_message("link")
else:
await interaction.response.send("get more help")

[potent spear]

you could hardcode it, sure, but if you wanted to add new responses based on certain input, you'd have to restart your bot every time

[slate swan]

how would i hardcore it?

[potent spear]

you just did...

[slate swan]

that doesnt work

[slate swan]

...

[potent spear]

the error message says it literally
"our DATABASE..."

I'm not sure why you're avoiding that implementation

[potent spear]

you're not even using a db, lol

[slate swan]

im not gonna write "the .py file cant find ur issue"

Our database wasn't able to find your issue in our database.

ite u got it fr

How many times do you want to say "our database"

Yes.

[potent spear]

"no appropriate response has been made for this issue..."

I'll show you in a dict format

issue_inputs_dict = {
  "embed": "I like turtles",
  "hurting knee": "ask a kiss on it",
  "default": "nothing was found"
}```

```py
appropriate_response = issue_inputs_dict.get(self.issue)
if appropriate_response is None:
   await ... send_message( ... issue_inputs_dict.get("default") )
else:
  await ... send_message( ... appropriate_response  )

see what I did here?
based on a given input, we'll send an appropriate response

ofc, this implementation is for educational purposes & you should use a database instead

[slate swan]

JSON my beloved

[slate swan]

how many command categories in a help command is generally good? like a range of what is too much and what is fine

[potent spear]

doesn't really matter, make it scrollable if needed
first page could be a legenda

[slate swan]

i've got a select menu for that with a paginator, and the first embed is just like some info stuff about the bot

[potent spear]

I wouldn't add that to help
maybe as a page in the legenda, but I think most people like to see all the commands first and info about the bot last

[slate swan]

right but, it has information like choose from the category below, what should i change then? what should the first page have?

[fallen imp]

help me .-.

[vocal snow]

dotenv

[fallen imp]

like this .-.

[vocal snow]

yes, and the whole point of using environment variables is so that you don't need to keep your token in your script

please reset your token and remember to never share it

also I'm guessing you haven't installed the python-dotenv package which is why the import is underlined

[slate swan]

what should the first embed be then? like some information text or should i remove it entirely and display commands already

[spice aurora]

would be helpful if someone could help here https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/1120750844405616660 😅

[fallen imp]

Tks you so much :>

[slate swan]

You probably don't want all these access tokens and refresh tokens to be publicly available

[spice aurora]

its all hidden tho?

[slate swan]

https://replit.com/@SockYeh/SpotipooAPI#usercaches/733163963709390858.json not really no

[spice aurora]

the thing is

u cant do anything with them without client secret

its basically useless

[potent spear]

just a short description of all cogs

[slate swan]

"Useless" you said, right?

[spice aurora]

yo wot

skem

where do i store it ee

@slate swan

[slate swan]

Dunno, replit is shit imo

[spice aurora]

well free

[slate swan]

Well that's one of the downside of such a free service, your data is free for users as well

[upbeat ice]

thats not even the biggest issue with replit

[slate swan]

Replit has lots of issues

[upbeat ice]

they use a shared ip for everything running on the service

[spice aurora]

well cant complain abt a free service

now the storing part is a problem tho

[slate swan]

database?

[spice aurora]

y'e

[slate swan]

i suggest supabase, u get a free 500mb of db storage

[spice aurora]

ooo

ty, will look into it

[formal basin]

is there anything better than better-profanity?

[slate swan]

Perspective API is pretty neat

[slate swan]

whats the difference between the has_permissions and the default_permissions decorator

[glad cradle]

has_permissions is a bot side check; default_permissions enforce permissions in discord (admins can overwrite them)

so for example if you have an application command that uses has_permissions and that requires the administrator permission the slash command will be visible to all the members but they won't be able to use it (since you have that permission check)
instead if you use default_permissions the slash command will be visible only to members that have the administrator permission (though if an administrator change the permissions of a command from the settings of the guild the command will be visible and usable according to the modified permissions)

[slate swan]

ah, so which one is better to use then?

[slate swan]

depends

[glad cradle]

depends on your usecase...
if you need to enforce permissions check use has_permissions

[slate swan]

if you want for example the command to be only available for you as the bot owner you will need to use has_permissions

oh, but i have my own check for developers, so if i want to use it for lets say a kick command default permissions is more flexible for server owners as well no?

[slate swan]

yes

okay so use default permissions for commands that are used by others than me pretty much

possibly

Add Media Channels as an premium perk

[glad cradle]

sigh

[slate swan]

I have problem in cogs

Everything good and cogs loaded

But there is no response to commands

Console errors?

No errors

But i can't use the / command

Then we'll need code, screenshots of what happens when executing command etc.

[glad cradle]

probably he/she is not syncing them

[slate swan]

Wouldn't say there's no "response" to the command in that case

Unless they missed the point of slash commands that it's not prefix commands with / as prefix

[versed swallow]

Hello, I am trying to create a discord bot that will analyze stock news and tell if it is good or not, please DM me if you are interested in collaboratign

[slate swan]

is it possible to make a discord.py that uses buttons if 2 people click the same button it will create a text channel linking to a database

[sick birch]

How do you link to a database?

[slate swan]

i dont rn im going to create a new .py for it

like a whole new client

[sick birch]

What are you trying to do?

[swift edge]

quick question
guys is it possible to put a link in a set_footer(text="link here")

[slate swan]

not a clickable link

[swift edge]

oh ok

thats all i needed

[slate swan]

something like a queue system where there is buttons attached to an embed and then someone will clikc it and it will place them in a queue until someone clicks it and then it create a text channel

so when 2 people interact with the button it creates a new channel

[swift acorn]

class changenamebutton(View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=20)
        
    @button(label="Change Name", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple, custom_id="namechange", emoji="📝")
    async def gemtransfer(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: Button):
        await interaction.response.send_modal(namechangemodal())

    async def on_timeout(self):
        for button in self.children:
            button.disabled = True

I can't figure out how to edit the original message with the disabled buttons after I have disabled them in the on_timeout function

[normal jasper]

await self.message.edit(view=self)

[swift acorn]

AttributeError: 'changenamebutton' object has no attribute 'message'

[naive briar]

Show the code where you use this view

You need to set the message attribute

[swift acorn]

for now not being properly used I was just testing some stuff with the bot, but

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.guild == None and message.author.id != 1120682150639968296:
        await message.channel.send("test", view=changenamebutton())

[potent spear]

have a database
store all user IDs of allowed members in there

have an event (on_member_update) which checks when someone gets a role => if not in database, remove given role

no, you'll need an actual database
because once your bot restarts, you'll ofc want to keep your list and not start all over

unless you hardcode those user IDs and will never change them in the future...

then you can use a botvariable with a list of user IDs, sure

should have a before and after argument
if it's in a class, it also needs the self first ofc

irrelevant
if you're in a class, you just add self, else you only need the 2 parameters I told you

make sure you have member intents enabled
else that event will never trigger

[winter hare]

so i made a cog class using commands.GroupCog afterwards when i went to go and run the main file it didnt register the command i had in the main file

[formal basin]

when i press run in vscode this comes up vscode % /usr/bin/python3 /Users/zagzag/vscode/main.py but nothing happens how do i fix?

[torn solar]

intents.messages = True
intents.message_content = True
intents.presences = True
intents.members = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix, intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    await bot.change_presence(status=status, activity=presence)
    print(f'Loaded {bot.user}')
        
async def on_message(message):
    print(f"{message.author}: {message.content}")
    if message.content == "setupInfo":
        await bot.wait_until_ready()
        print(f'worked')
        channel = bot.get_channel(1120938903487131648)
        await channel.send(embed=info_embed)```

the onready works, but my onmessage embed thing doesnt

it worked when i used a client not a bot

can someone tell me why and how to fix it

[slate swan]

Where's the event decorator

[torn solar]

omg

ty

[slate swan]

Also if you have all these intents enabled, you can just do

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix, intents=discord.Intents.all())

[torn solar]

anything else that would not make it work

[slate swan]

And messages is already included in default so that one is already redundant

[torn solar]

i was trying everything to fix it

thats why i did it

[slate swan]

Oh yeah makes sense

Try out if it works now

[torn solar]

worked thanks so much

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

aren't custom emoji's <a:name:id> or <:name:id>? or are they just <a:name:> or <:name:>?

[naive briar]

With IDs

[slate swan]

so that would just be <:pithink:> right?

[naive briar]

!pithink

[slate swan]

o.o how do I get the id #?

[naive briar]

Put a \ in front of an emoji

[slate swan]

ooooo ty!

[naive briar]

!pithink

[slate swan]

!pithink

ooo so u have to send it

interesting

[shrewd apex]

u dont really need the name u can substitute it with a placeholder also

how to remove the page counter in pagination

[astral ether]

hello i have this code for send an embed when a member join a guild :

guild_id = client.get_guild(member.guild.id) # This function is called get_guild so presumably it returns a Guild object
channel = guild_id.get_channel(recuperer_valeur(member.guild.id, "config_bienvenue_id"))
        
await channel.send(embed=embed)

but i have this error :

File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 441, in _run_event await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/container/bot proto/main.py", line 33, in on_member_join await channel.send(embed=embed) ^^^^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'send'

[slate swan]

channel is none

use something like

channel = guild_id.get_channel(...) or await guild_id.fetch_channel(...)

So that you first try to get from cache and otherwise make an API call

[astral ether]

hummm okay thanks !

how to make something to send a message at sharp midnight

[swift acorn]

class changenamebutton(View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=20)
        
    @button(label="Change Name", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple, custom_id="namechange", emoji="📝")
    async def gemtransfer(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: Button):
        await interaction.response.send_modal(namechangemodal())

    async def on_timeout(self):
        for button in self.children:
            button.disabled = True

Hey, I am trying to disable my button after timeout but self.message.edit(view=self) does not work, would anyone know how to edit the message?

[slate swan]

You want to send message every midnight?

Well

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

@discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[slate swan]

You need to specify time

Hello. Im trying to convert a $ command to an interaction. would anyone know how to convert this part? ```@bot.command(name='score')
async def show_score(ctx, user: discord.Member = None):
guild_id = ctx.guild.id
target_user = user if user else ctx.author
owes_text = []
owed_text = []

ive got this so far: ```my_guild = discord.Object(id='server_id')

class MyClient(discord.Client):
def init(self, *, intents: discord.Intents):
super().init(intents=intents)
self.tree = app_commands.CommandTree(self)

async def setup_hook(self):
    self.tree.copy_global_to(guild=my_guild)
    await self.tree.sync(guild=my_guild)

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

@client.tree.command(description = 'display the score to the user')

discord.Interaction

class discord.Interaction```
Represents a Discord interaction.

An interaction happens when a user does an action that needs to be notified. Current examples are slash commands and components.

Just look through the attributes and methods there and use what you need

[swift acorn]

would really appreciate an answer if someone knows

[normal jasper]

reminder = await self.bot.api_client.post(
            "bot/reminders",
            json={
                "author": ctx.author.id,
                "channel_id": ctx.message.channel.id,

                "mentions": mention_ids,
            }
        )

Hello, i saw this in reminder's source code. Is this some kind of personal database for bots?

[naive briar]

Yes

[normal jasper]

How can i use it? I couldn't find any documentation for it

[slate swan]

It's most likely a custom API that is only made for @unkempt canyon

So you cannot use it, make your own

[normal jasper]

how do i make my own?

[slate swan]

Learn web development and make an API that accepts POST request and the JSON body as shown above and then saves everything in a database

Or just forget about that API part and just use the scheduler for now as you can see below in the source code (https://github.com/python-discord/bot-core - https://bot-core.pythondiscord.com)

You should try to read code more and not just stop once you see something interesting

[slate swan]

i just need some visual advice, does it look good when bots add the "Requested by {whatever} | time" at the bottom of the embed or does it not look good

Depends for what

Sometimes it's useful and nice to have, sometimes it's just pointless - people can scroll the chat or look up to know who requested it - and the time, well it's shown on Discord's UI anyways so that's definitely useless - depending on what time you show

If it's something like a reminder etc. then yes, it may be useful by showing who has set the reminder and the time when they have set the reminder

ah okay thanks

[drifting arrow]

Hey, I'm using a discordapp, not a discordbot. and I am querying the discordapi so I can get my roles and all I am getting is the role id? How do I convert this to a role name?

[slate swan]

Not possible, use a bot token

[drifting arrow]

;-;

But then my bot would have to be in the actual discord lol

[slate swan]

Yes

[drifting arrow]

What's the point in being able to "read" your roles if you cant actually read the roles? lol

[slate swan]

You can

The role ID

[drifting arrow]

And how do I convert that to a role name without actually having a bot in the server? lol

[slate swan]

You don't

[drifting arrow]

Then again - What's the point? lol

[slate swan]

Because IDs are useful comapred to a name

So it only returns the ID

[drifting arrow]

What can I do with an ID?
My account owns the server I am querying. the app has the above perms.
I dont want to invite a discord bot to the server just to convert a role id to a role name. So what can I use a role id for?

[slate swan]

Everything related to the API that uses role IDs

[drifting arrow]

I appreciate how you're replying without actually giving anything useful

[slate swan]

Because I've already told you

Use a bot to get specific data about the roles in a guild

If you're unhappy about that -> https://dis.gd/contact

[wispy pasture]

sooo the cmd WITHOUT the buttons is working perfectly, but WITH the buttons the cmd just stops...i added different logs, here is the result:

1. the bot IS making the file, but not sending it

code: https://srcb.in/MkSszD7kme

[fallen imp]

help .-.

[slate swan]

Enable the message content intent in the developer portal, as the error says - if you'd read it

[fallen imp]

ohhh

[naive briar]

Did you get any errors/tracebacks

Because you should

[wispy pasture]

nope

[naive briar]

Do you have any error handlers

discord.ui.View(select)

Is not how you add items to views

!d discord.ui.View.add_item you need to use this method

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.add\_item

add_item(item)```
Adds an item to the view.

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

[wispy pasture]

yeah

[naive briar]

Then it's probably eating the tracebacks

[wispy pasture]

the file is being made, everything is working except the sending of the message/embed

[naive briar]

Show the code of the error handler

[slate swan]

can we set title color for embed in discord

[naive briar]

No

[slate swan]

but i saw some bot having it blue

[naive briar]

Show screenshot

[slate swan]

see the title is blue

also how can i make those small description

[naive briar]

Click it, it's a hyperlink, isn't it

[slate swan]

oh yea its ahyperlin

how do u make hyperlinks

[naive briar]

Where

[naive briar]

!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.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

New in version 2.0...

[slate swan]

u see on the botton by altpapier helpfund the bot etc

i think its footer

[naive briar]

Set the url kwarg

[naive briar]

It is

[slate swan]

iii fogot how u set footer

was it like embed.set_footer

[naive briar]

!d discord.Embed.set_footer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_footer

set_footer(*, text=None, icon_url=None)```
Sets the footer for the embed content.

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

[wispy pasture]

https://srcb.in/tcaQknz9ug

still nothing :/

[lethal drift]

I get this error every time I try to import app_commands

[vocal snow]

make sure discord.py is up to date and uninstall any other dapi wrappers you have (eg, py-cord)

[lethal drift]

Works! Thanks!

[slate swan]

What i need to install to use cogs ?

[buoyant quail]

Nothing extra

discord.py or the other library you are using

[slate swan]

Ok

Cogs does not work

[meager chasm]

oof

[turbid condor]

And how are you setting them up and loading??

[naive briar]

It's not sending or the select doesn't respond? Try to be more specific

And your on_select is unused, also that's not how you set select callbacks

[slate swan]

what is the problem ?

[naive briar]

What is the library you're using

[slate swan]

Discord.py

[naive briar]

Then you need to await the load_extension

[slate swan]

It doesn't work

[naive briar]

What doesn't work? Be specific

[slate swan]

Cogs

[slate swan]

See

[naive briar]

That doesn't explain anything

[slate swan]

Print

Cogs not loaded

[naive briar]

And I already told you to await the load_extension

[alpine oar]

can yall help me? I cant download easy_pill ive already tested pip install eas_pill just says it didnt find the file even tho i reinstalled the whole python

[slate swan]

Yeah i await it

[naive briar]

And?

[slate swan]

Still doesn't work

[naive briar]

Show your current code

Or it's probably just you didn't call the load coroutine

[slate swan]

1m

[naive briar]

What happened if you try to install it? Or does it just say that it couldn't find the package

[alpine oar]

it says it doesnt find the file

its sooooo weird

[naive briar]

Find the file?

[alpine oar]

Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"C:\Program Files\Python310\python.exe" "C:\Program Files\Python310\Scripts\pip.exe" install easy_pill': Det gÕr inte att hitta filen.

That

the last bit is swedish

[naive briar]

You probably don't have pip installed

[alpine oar]

you didnt import commands

do this:
from discord.ext import commands

[alpine oar]

but i do

[naive briar]

You didn't even call the load function

[slate swan]

In cog file

[alpine oar]

no where u importfrom the top

[naive briar]

[alpine oar]

bruh i need this fr fr

[naive briar]

I don't know windows stuff

[buoyant quail]

he did. and how it's anyways related to the problem?

[alpine oar]

oh mb i saw wrong lol

[buoyant quail]

Try answers from SO
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37220055/pip-fatal-error-in-launcher-unable-to-create-process-using
There is a different thing but error is the same

(this)

python -m pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall pip

Also anyways better to check if you do have pip in C:\Program Files\Python310\Scripts\

maybe you have pip for some another python version and for that you don't

[alpine oar]

i got the version

3.10.9

[slate swan]

Thx cog file loaded but the command is not responding

[buoyant quail]

Move it from the __init__ function

It should be just a method of the class

[alpine oar]

now i get this ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement easy_pill (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for easy_pill

[naive briar]

!pip easy-pil

[unkempt canyon]

easy-pil v0.3.0

A Python library built on top of PIL to easily edit/modify images

[alpine oar]

By running the command python -m pip install easy_pill

[naive briar]

Try easy-pil instead of easy_pil

[alpine oar]

YES IT WORKED

AHHH FINALYYYYYYYY AFTER 1 MONTH LOL TYSM

wait.... it still didnt solve my problem

my code still says i got an error .........

[alpine oar]

import discord
from discord import File
from discord.ext import commands
from easy_pill import Editor, load_image_async, Font

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

file = File(fp=image_bytes, filename="pic1.jpg")

await channel.send(f"Hello {member.mention}! Welcome to **{member.guild.name}**. Have an great day!.**")
await channel.send(file=file

Mind cheking my code to see if i did anything wrong

bc it only says that easy_pill is wrong

[buoyant quail]

You have two l there

Should be one

easy_pill -> easy_pil

[alpine oar]

1 l?

yea still doesnt work

[buoyant quail]

What does it say?

[alpine oar]

Traceback (most recent call last):

and when i do easy-pil it givs me even more errors

well i am afk ima go eat

[buoyant quail]

What was the output of the pip install?
How are you running the file?

[naive briar]

Show your error handler code

[wispy pasture]

https://srcb.in/LaUXqNNZjz

the bot stops here: Command execution started.

[naive briar]

That's no error handler

[wispy pasture]

wha~

[naive briar]

What what?

[buoyant quail]

then maybe some of these functions (you can add prints to check)

    prompt = await translate_to_en(prompt)

    imagefileobjs = await generate_four_pollinations_images(prompt, ratio.value)

are freezing? show their code too if they are

[wispy pasture]

i might be mixing error handler with something else... can you explain a bit?

[wispy pasture]

uh... alright

[naive briar]

!d discord.on_error - error handlers in discord.py are generally events, like this one

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_error

discord.on_error(event, *args, **kwargs)```
Usually when an event raises an uncaught exception, a traceback is logged to stderr and the exception is ignored. If you want to change this behaviour and handle the exception for whatever reason yourself, this event can be overridden. Which, when done, will suppress the default action of printing the traceback.

The information of the exception raised and the exception itself can be retrieved with a standard call to [`sys.exc_info()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info "(in Python v3.11)").

Note

`on_error` will only be dispatched to [`Client.event()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.event "discord.Client.event").

It will not be received by [`Client.wait_for()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.wait_for "discord.Client.wait_for"), or, if used, [Bots](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#ext-commands-api-bot) listeners such as [`listen()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen "discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen") or [`listener()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog.listener "discord.ext.commands.Cog.listener").

Changed in version 2.0: The traceback is now logged rather than printed.

[wispy pasture]

ohh that thing

[alpine oar]

huh wdym

[buoyant quail]

What did you got when you used

pip install easy-pil

(when installed library in terminal. you can run it again and show, doesn't matters)

And what command are you using to run your code

[alpine oar]

File "c:\Users\OneDrive\Dokument\Discord Bots\Learning.py", line 4

?
that's not what i asked

[alpine oar]

ik

i saw wrong lol

[buoyant quail]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.edit_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.edit\_message

await edit_message(*, content=..., embed=..., embeds=..., attachments=..., view=..., allowed_mentions=..., delete_after=None)```

[buoyant quail]

there is no files

attachments maybe?

[alpine oar]

what should i do now?

[buoyant quail]

re-read and try to answer again 😄

[wispy pasture]

thanks!

[wispy pasture]

yeah yeah that was da issue

[alpine oar]

it said that it worked it succesfully installed it

[buoyant quail]

ok, i guess it was so. and second question?

[alpine oar]

dont get it

[buoyant quail]

With which command are you running the file
Like usually it is

python main.py

[alpine oar]

how do i chek that

💀

[vocal snow]

how are you running your program?

[alpine oar]

using vsc

what my file name is?

ik i am dumb asf

[buoyant quail]

What's the first line of output when you run it?
Something that looks like path

[alpine oar]

from easy-pil import Editor, load_image_async, Font'

[buoyant quail]

the yellow + blue text

[lofty lance]

hey i do have a question regarding a currnt project just simpple querry

if anyone can clear the doubt

[alpine oar]

S C:\Users> & C:/Users//AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python310/python.exe

that

[buoyant quail]

ok
show the output of doing pip -V in terminal

[lofty lance]

aye bro can i ask sometthing pls

[alpine oar]

Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"C:\Program Files\Python310\python.exe" "C:\Program Files\Python310\Scripts\pip.exe" -V': Det gÕr inte att hitta filen.

[alpine oar]

yea?

[lofty lance]

sorry i mean ya can i ask something pls if u dont mind

[vocal snow]

if it's about discord bots, sure

[lofty lance]

thx mate

[buoyant quail]

just ask. and someone will reply

[buoyant quail]

So wait. How did you install the library? You said you got "successfully installed". What did you run for that?

[alpine oar]

so i did pip install easy-pil just like catlover said and that was succesful

i used pip install easy-pil

[buoyant quail]

huh

[main fiber]

import discord
import os

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():

if message.author == client.user;
return

if message.content.startswith($hello):
await message.channel.send('Hello')

client.run(os.geten('TOKEN'))

[alpine oar]

but now i get this Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"C:\Program Files\Python310\python.exe" "C:\Program Files\Python310\Scripts\pip.exe" install easy-pil': Det gÕr inte att hitta filen.

[buoyant quail]

i see
it was python -m pip

do
python -m pip -V
or just
python --version

[main fiber]

🔼 I don't know why it doesn't work

[alpine oar]

yea

[lofty lance]

so i am making a discord game bot
so when user type command start i fetch server details like guid id and etc and store it in mongo db to be userd in future

the game use a map like stuff
so i assgin a x and y cooridnate to a server

i want to make sure that one server gets only one value
and if user type start comand agian it should not work
any way to detect that and make it work only once per server
i know i can compare the guid id and chekc if currnt id exists or not
but wont it take to log if there are many guid ids?
i want the code to be fast
any other way for that sir ?
@vocal snow

[vocal snow]

you need to enable message content intents, and probably update discord.py

[alpine oar]

pip 23.1.2 from C:\Users\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.10)

[main fiber]

ok thank you

[buoyant quail]

uhm
should be good

[lofty lance]

add this

intents.message_content = True
bot = discord.Bot(intents=intents)```

[alpine oar]

what is that even?

[main fiber]

ok

[vocal snow]

If you are using mongodb to store the guild ids, then it should be pretty fast

[main fiber]

there's a red line on line 16

[buoyant quail]

I was checking that you have pip corresponding to the python you are running

try

python -m pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall easy-pil

and running the code again idk

[slate swan]

!indent

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[slate swan]

decorator must be indented the same as the function it is assigned to

[main fiber]

sorry

[lofty lance]

so i can go with that compare stuff
no need to worry about that it will fech the id and then compare and then assgin the value?
shall i make a specifice documetn for it ?

[lofty lance]

indentation line rest is good
and if u are using client then replace that bot form code i give u wiht client

[lofty lance]

haii sirrrr

[main fiber]

ok

how do I fix indentation line?

[slate swan]

yeah also just noticed @main fiber why to create client and bot at the same time

and only use client

[slate swan]

unindent it?

[main fiber]

oh ok thanks

[main fiber]

lol

[lofty lance]

just type back space at @client thing in line 15

[sick birch]

Do you see why lines 11 and 12 don't have an error, but 15 and 16 do?

What's different between them?

[main fiber]

ok

[lofty lance]

indentation

[slate swan]

you are not supposed to answer

[alpine oar]

yea thanks i think it worked idk

[sick birch]

I'm aware, that was directed at OP

[lofty lance]

sorryyyy i am also a newbii so exited

@main fiber u can use indent-rainbow extention too
if u get confused in that sometimes

[main fiber]

I mean I fixed it but on line 17 it has a syntax error

[main fiber]

ok

[lofty lance]

u shold type back space in line 23 2 times to get your client.run out of that decorator

[main fiber]

I'm getting so much pings lol

[buoyant quail]

Don't want to be toxic, but learn some python basics before creating a bot : )

[slate swan]

!e $hello

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :x: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 |   File "/home/main.py", line 1
002 |     $hello
003 |     ^

[alpine oar]

vitness i sent in dms bc i couldnt send here

[sick birch]

I would highly recommend going over the Python tutorial I linked above, discord bots are not beginner-friendly and are an advanced topic

[main fiber]

ok

[lofty lance]

ohh btw can u review my code of so far pls
its a simple code that fecht server info and
assign it X and Y cooridnatess to be used in map and i have some doutbs if u can clear to ?

[slate swan]

you cant just put random characters if you want to check for strings you need to say that it is a string by puting it in "

(or ')

like you did line below

@main fiber

[main fiber]

ok

[slate swan]

i can help you solve some problems but i dont think im right person to check code in project im not into

[lofty lance]

and replce that ; with : and give return funtion some indentation

[lofty lance]

am i wont mind i want review on it

[slate swan]

i can look at it but i wont promise i will read everything carefully

[lofty lance]

haha sure thx

shall i share live share extention of it

vs code live share i mean

or lets just pass that i will explain my code to u here

[slate swan]

never used it maybe you have it on github?

[lofty lance]

didnt putted it there so far

alr i will upload it when its bit funtunabel
currnty it just do one thing

when u type start command

[slate swan]

if its not too long you can upload it here

[lofty lance]

alr let see

btw how to use that python ext of discord to decorate your code in discord msg

[slate swan]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Formatting code on discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

[lofty lance]

ahh wiat got it

this thing

[slate swan]

yeah but can be just py in short

[lofty lance]

this is location_manager.py

want me to explain the code in short as i didnt added any comments at moment

?

[slate swan]

first what i can see you create MongoClient instance each start command call which is prolly not what you want you should create one at startup and use it each time

[lofty lance]

i didnt get what u are trying to say here

i am noob ig

[slate swan]

that you connect to mongo db database each time someone runs start command

you should establish connection when you start the bot store this connection in a varriable

and then use it

something like:

bot.db = MongoClient(...)

[lofty lance]

so shall i put that in on_ready funtion ?

[slate swan]

can be

[lofty lance]

so i should put it in on_ready will be a grt idea

i didnt even though of it

https://tenor.com/view/write-that-down-taking-notes-school-universities-university-gif-17937210

[slate swan]

yeah

[lofty lance]

let me do it

[lofty lance]

shall i assgin it as global variable

[slate swan]

wdym

if you are thinking of using global keyword

no never do that

assign it to bot

!botvar

[unkempt canyon]

Bot variables

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

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

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

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

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

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

[slate swan]

why it sent twice huh

[lofty lance]

so i should be replacing that bot.test with connetion string

[slate swan]

no

its just example with simple string

you are supposed to put MongoClient instance here

[slate swan]

[lofty lance]

yaa insted of tesst

let me try it

here comes a error

[slate swan]

show it

[lofty lance]

last one

was kidding about error btw
programming jock
if something works dont touch it

idk what just i did btu it workd

https://tenor.com/view/minions-dance-disco-gif-8426295

[slate swan]

do you use it tho?

[lofty lance]

yaa used

it and workd well
want me to show whole code?

btw i do have a doubt if can clear ?

[slate swan]

?

[lofty lance]

as u can see in location_manager
not only there but for start command to
i want to add a error hander
in which if person types that start button in a server whose data already exists with my database
then it should throw a error saying that u are registerd

so i was thinking to store all guids id in a document in mongodb
and compare it when person type that command but it feels like it will increase load on my machin only
and if there are a lot of server it will take time for it to chekc
so any way to just do it fastly

[slate swan]

hm no idea

[lofty lance]

ig time to summon chat gpt now

or brad

[slate swan]

What's the prob

[slate swan]

It would not be slow

Just store the registered guilds in mongo db, and when the user makes the command you can easily check

what is it then
