discord-bots

[buoyant crescent]

ok

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#modal

[sharp whale]

i read it, it has TextStyle

[silk wasp]

ok in main.py
remove the setup_hook()

and in the def load(), first line add a

await bot.wait_until_ready()

[hasty pike]

@sharp whale https://youtu.be/hMuQJnFNm78 refer this until I'm busy

[silk wasp]

@buoyant crescent

first make sure ur bot can run once before running ur cogs

[buoyant crescent]

now it don"t print the extension are loaded

[hasty pike]

Btw both things are same

[silk wasp]

ya that what confuses me

[hasty pike]

either use setup_hook() or def load()

Both will give you same result

[silk wasp]

but does ur bot run once

or still twice

[buoyant crescent]

it not the bot that run twice but the commands in my cogs

[silk wasp]

ohhhhh

[buoyant crescent]

like i create a test command in my main ans it runs once but in my cogs the commands are running twice and the event too

[silk wasp]

so basically u saying when u do like example: !aide
it output twice?

[buoyant crescent]

YES

[silk wasp]

.-.

[buoyant crescent]

;-;

[silk wasp]

sorry miscommunication

[sharp whale]

i have did everything, like i watched a video and docs, i have an problem that it throws a name error,

  File "main.py", line 22, in <module>
    class suggest(ui.Modal, title="Suggestions"):
  File "main.py", line 24, in suggest
    suggestionbox = ui.InputText(label="Enter Your Suggestion", style=TextStyle.paragraph)
NameError: name 'TextStyle' is not defined```

[buoyant crescent]

np i have this issue since yesterday

[slate swan]

you did not import it

what library are you using

[sharp whale]

discord.py

i did import it

[slate swan]

yeah so you need to import this class

[slate swan]

i dont see import that would import the TextStyle class

!d discord.TextStyle

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextStyle

class discord.TextStyle```
Represents the style of the text box component.

New in version 2.0.

[hasty pike]

I don't think this is mandatory works with or without

[sharp whale]

no

discord.ui

works

[slate swan]

!d discord.ui.InputText

[unkempt canyon]

Huh? No.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

hm

[silk wasp]

When you create an instance of MyBot, it automatically runs the bot using bot.run(), so there's no need to call it again.

[hasty pike]

It's discord.ui.Modal

[slate swan]

he uses InputText class

[buoyant quail]

It is TextInput i believe

[slate swan]

ain't it another whole library

[slate swan]

no

[hasty pike]

Nah

[slate swan]

https://discord-ui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

[silk wasp]

but then i dont really like using class super when im dealing with main.py so i usually dont add that in

[buoyant quail]

It is discord.py

[slate swan]

discord.ui is part of discord.py

ui components are now built in to discord.py

[hasty pike]

@sharp whale code needed

[sharp whale]

TextInput

[sharp whale]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import ui
from config import suggestion_channel
from config import TOKEN



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

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
  print(f"bot is ready and logged on: {bot.user.name}")




# COMMANDS


class suggest(ui.Modal, title="Suggestions"):
  type = ui.InputText(label="Type of suggestion")
  suggestionbox = ui.InputText(label="Enter Your Suggestion", style=TextStyle.paragraph)
  async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message(f'Thanks for your response, {self.name}!', ephemeral=True)
    async def on_submit(self, interaction):
      await suggestion_channel.send(f"The type is {self.type}")




@bot.command(name="test", description="test command")
async def test(ctx):
  button1= discord.ui.Button(label="Click me", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, emoji="⭐")
  view = discord.ui.View()
  view.add_item(button1)
  await ctx.send("testing", view=view)



#START UP




bot.run(TOKEN)```

[slate swan]

suggestionbox = ui.InputText(label="Enter Your Suggestion", style=TextStyle.paragraph) literally your code

there is InputText

[hasty pike]

Messed up class

[sharp whale]

i forgot

[slate swan]

since when?

[slate swan]

like i said you need to import the TextStyle class from discord library

[silk wasp]

@buoyant crescent

wait no

[sharp whale]

theres no textstyle class

[slate swan]

!d discord.TextStyle

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextStyle

class discord.TextStyle```
Represents the style of the text box component.

New in version 2.0.

[sharp whale]

  File "main.py", line 4, in <module>
    from discord import TextStyle
ImportError: cannot import name 'TextStyle' from 'discord'```

[slate swan]

you sure its discord.py?

[silk wasp]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import os

from apikeys import BOTTOKEN

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(command_prefix='!', intents=discord.Intents.all())

    async def setup_hook(self):
        await load()

bot = MyBot()

async def load():
    for filename in os.listdir("./cogs"):
        if filename.endswith(".py"):
            cog_name = filename[:-3]
            bot.load_extension(f"cogs.{cog_name}")
            print(f'Extension: {cog_name} successfully loaded')

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.do_not_disturb, activity=discord.Streaming(name="Pokemon Unite", url="https://www.twitch.tv/mysterymom__"))
    print("The bot is now ready")
    print("--------------------")

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
    await ctx.send("This is a text command")

bot.run(BOTTOKEN)

@buoyant crescent try this?

[sharp whale]

bruh

[buoyant crescent]

Ok

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/whats_new.html

no idea you can check

[slate swan]

well there is indeed class TextStyle in discord.py so you are not using discord.py or you are running not updated version

can you do pip show discord.py in terminal?

[sharp whale]

wait

@slate swan

[slate swan]

and what python version is your interpreter in your text editor?

wait why am I seeing TextInput in discord.py when he is doing InputText

[sharp whale]

its replit

its latest

[slate swan]

are they different?

[slate swan]

can you do print(discord.__version__) on top of your script?

after you import discord obviously

[buoyant crescent]

  bot.load_extension(f"cogs.{cog_name}")
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback```

[silk wasp]

await it

[hasty pike]

modal.add_item() for modals

[slate swan]

.load_extension is awaitable as it says

[silk wasp]

add a await infront of bot.load

zzz

[buoyant crescent]

ok

[hasty pike]

@sharp whale

[slate swan]

thats not discord.py

[buoyant crescent]

bruh it still run twice

[silk wasp]

bnruh

[slate swan]

discord.py does not have such version

[silk wasp]

hmmmm

[slate swan]

!pypi discord.py

[unkempt canyon]

discord.py v2.3.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[slate swan]

newest is 2.3.1

[cloud dawn]

!pypi py-cord

[unkempt canyon]

py-cord v2.4.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[slate swan]

py-cord

[silk wasp]

@buoyant crescent can we not add a class MyBot or u want it like that?

[cloud dawn]

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

[slate swan]

from all libraries py-cord is the worst one

[cloud dawn]

Check task manager.

[buoyant crescent]

i just want it to work ;-;

[silk wasp]

.-.

[buoyant crescent]

k

[buoyant crescent]

what i need to check

[cloud dawn]

If any python processes are running,

[sharp whale]

uh what

[sharp whale]

but i imported discord

[slate swan]

he does not have discord.py

[sharp whale]

pycord hmm

[silk wasp]

check for like python or ur ide

[slate swan]

then uninstall pycord

[cloud dawn]

py-cord*

[hasty pike]

That doesn't make different both libraries have same interaction methods

[slate swan]

py-c🤢rd*

[hasty pike]

I read pycord documentation for interaction

[cloud dawn]

Except py-cords core is messed up

[slate swan]

yeah no

[hasty pike]

It has good and well explained documentation

[slate swan]

pycord is different

[cloud dawn]

[hasty pike]

It's documentation helps me in dpy (personal opinion) idk about others

[cloud dawn]

Hikari is king

[silk wasp]

because the code shouldnt run twice unless it your ide or a duplicate instances of running the script

[slate swan]

i use nextcord for personal projects

[hasty pike]

Nextcord is also good library

I used it when dpy was discontinued

[slate swan]

me too

but i didnt come back to discord.py

[cloud dawn]

I used disnake.

[sharp whale]

i deleted pycord

[hasty pike]

But does nextcord have hybrid commands?

[silk wasp]

.-.

[sharp whale]

and installed discord.py

[silk wasp]

i dont think

[sharp whale]

but still not working

[slate swan]

nope its only in discord.py i think

[hasty pike]

That's where it lacks

[hasty pike]

That's why i switched THE ONLY REASON

[cloud dawn]

Doesn't matter either use message commands or slash, not both imo.

[silk wasp]

it almost like similar to discord.py

[hasty pike]

I personally like nextcord so much

[slate swan]

but hybrid commands are here for not a long time

[hasty pike]

It's good to provide both if your bot is public

[hasty pike]

We'll see

[sharp whale]

  File "main.py", line 9, in <module>
    intents = discord.Intents.all()
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Intents'```

bro wat

[slate swan]

what did you install

[sharp whale]

discord.py

[hasty pike]

😭😭

[sharp whale]

pip install discord.py

[hasty pike]

His errors

[cloud dawn]

After 3 years it's pretty valid to finally force slash commands.

[silk wasp]

lel

[slate swan]

print its version

again

[sharp whale]

it says it doesnt have _version_ atribute

[silk wasp]

@buoyant crescent any status?

[slate swan]

then its not discord.py

[cloud dawn]

Do you have a folder named discord?

[sharp whale]

no

[hasty pike]

Uff but most people still prefer message command and while other competing bots having message commands to how can i force slash commands

[slate swan]

oh yeah maybe you named file discord.py

[hasty pike]

Stats gonna go down

[sharp whale]

no

no

[slate swan]

do pip list

[cloud dawn]

Repl.it

[slate swan]

and send output

[hasty pike]

Shit

[cloud dawn]

We're screwed

[slate swan]

repl.it user

[silk wasp]

[hasty pike]

[cloud dawn]

lmao

[slate swan]

!paste

[hasty pike]

Panda is hurt

[sharp whale]

bruh

[silk wasp]

what is this

discord 2.3.1
discord-py 2.3.1

[slate swan]

you have so many random libraries installed

[silk wasp]

what is this

[slate swan]

like discord or discord-py

the library you want is discord.py

[sharp whale]

should i make a new repl

[cloud dawn]

Yes

[slate swan]

!pypi discord-py

[unkempt canyon]

discord.py v2.3.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[cloud dawn]

I always throw my container away when I don't feel like fixing that bug.

[buoyant crescent]

i send you in pm a ss of my task manager can you check it

[slate swan]

!pypi discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord v2.3.1

A mirror package for discord.py. Please install that instead.

[silk wasp]

!pypi discord.py

[unkempt canyon]

discord.py v2.3.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[silk wasp]

use this if u want

[cloud dawn]

I mean the fastest way to check would be to just restart your pc.

Then you know it was on twice.

[sand flicker]

Hi everybody.
I am using adb to control android devices and am having a problem where there is no way for adb to recognize more than 15 devices
Does anyone know how to fix it?

[slate swan]

ah its discord.py owners package

[cloud dawn]

ngl mirror packages should be dissalowed except for bs4 since i always spell it wrong.

[slate swan]

@sharp whale now install discord**.**py

[silk wasp]

wrong channel but ok

[slate swan]

with a dot

[slate swan]

!rule 7

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

7. Keep discussions relevant to the channel topic. Each channel's description tells you the topic.

[silk wasp]

like i said

[cloud dawn]

!pypy discordpy

[slate swan]

pypy

[cloud dawn]

pipi

[slate swan]

!pypi replit

[unkempt canyon]

replit v3.3.0

A library for interacting with features of repl.it

[slate swan]

mhm

[sharp whale]

BRUH

[slate swan]

pip uninstall discord

[silk wasp]

first uninstall all discord

then u install discord.py

[slate swan]

what is the question?

oh there is an error

did not see that

[sharp whale]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/olewusemif

[silk wasp]

remove self.

[slate swan]

well you are trying to access attribute that does not exist on your object

[silk wasp]

in self.interaction

[slate swan]

you prolly want just interaction since you get it in the callback function

[sharp whale]

b r u h

[silk wasp]

waht it say

[slate swan]

thats why you dont use replit

[silk wasp]

can i see the full code?

[slate swan]

do print(dir(discord))

[sharp whale]

wait

[slate swan]

your function wants user param

show your function definition

[silk wasp]

can i see this function code?

[slate swan]

is it inside a class?

doesnt look like when you call it

what does that mean?

[sharp whale]

OK

[slate swan]

show code

[sharp whale]

it ran

[slate swan]

i dont get the not indented part like if it is indented into class then its inside class else its not

[buoyant quail]

It's not the cogs, but the classes. And if your function is not indented, it is not inside the class.

[slate swan]

you only put self when its inside class

looks like it is not inside class since you get this error

then its not inside class

if its in global scope

[buoyant quail]

Then just put that inside class if you need it

[buoyant crescent]

even when i restart my pc it runs twice

[slate swan]

keep in mind if you put it inside class you need to be in that class or have class instance to run this method

then you just remove the self but you wont be able to use self.bot.something

[hasty pike]

[slate swan]

which you prolly need

[cloud dawn]

Code?

[slate swan]

could be

[silk wasp]

await self.open_account(interaction.user)

wait no

[buoyant quail]

||Learn python before making bots||

[buoyant crescent]

of my main or my cogs ?

[silk wasp]

is ur open_account and the command in same file or differeccn file?

[hasty pike]

[slate swan]

.rp oop

ok

[cloud dawn]

Whatever is being done twice.

@slate swan if it in a diff file use this instead

await open_account(self, interaction.user)

then it should work

[slate swan]

can you send full code if you have few files send all the files use paste service

It should be interaction instance, not just class

[sharp whale]

i know

i know this exists, i read the doc

i imported the interaction class too

[buoyant quail]

.

[sharp whale]

wdym

[buoyant quail]

You get instance from the library as the first argument when you call the command

[sharp whale]

sorry, my english isn't good

you named your argument lowercase

so why use Interaction

ok i named the argument in upercase

[slate swan]

no

[sharp whale]

[slate swan]

dont named varriables like classes

[sharp whale]

what

use lowercase interaction

thats prefixed command you get Context not Interaction

[sharp whale]

hmm

HMM

[hasty pike]

[sharp whale]

we register a slash command with @bot.tree.command() decorator

right?

[hasty pike]

Yes

[shrewd apex]

if ur not in cogs yes

[sharp whale]

async def modal(interaction: discord.Interaction):
  await interaction.response.send_modal(suggest())```

[hasty pike]

Doesn't seem to work for me

[sharp whale]

hmm

its not working

[twilit grotto]

send the error

[sharp whale]

it doesnt throw any error

[naive briar]

What's not working

[sharp whale]

command not working

[buoyant quail]

You need to sync your commands

[naive briar]

That didn't explain anything

[sharp whale]

like, its not listed in the slash command listh thingy

[hasty pike]

@sharp whale did you do this?

[sharp whale]

n o

how do i sync

[hasty pike]

bot.tree.sync()

Make sync command

You can use this whenever you want to sync your commands with discord

Make sure command is owner (developer) only

[sharp whale]

what if

i did it in on_ready event

yea it worked

[hasty pike]

on_ready has chances of running multiple time it may time out

[naive briar]

It will unnecessarily sync almost every time you restart the bot

[hasty pike]

@sharp whale this

[sharp whale]

but, if i sync it everytime, nothing will break

then why not sync everytime

[naive briar]

That's not the point of my message

[hasty pike]

You don't need to sync everytime

You only need to sync after updating your code

[sharp whale]

I meant, nothing bad will happen if it syncs everytime it starts right?

[hasty pike]

Might not happen for you but it'll happen for discord

And discord will timeout it

[sharp whale]

wao

[hasty pike]

Why do you even want to use bad practices in your code

Use proper ways to do it

[sharp whale]

yk, lazyness

[hasty pike]

Happens but you've to do it you can't skip things

[buoyant quail]

Just typehint channel as forum channel i think?

[slate swan]

Or a union where you have both I guess

[hasty pike]

[thin raft]

show code

show entire code

[slate swan]

you cant annotate option as ForumChannel

means that you cant type hint the option as ForumChannel cause discord does not support it

[slate swan]

Discord or discord.py?

discord

Discord mentions in their docs

Includes all channel types + categories

Not sure why you shouldn't be able to

you have a server with bot that has jishaku

I stopped coding in Python for over 2 years

Just interested that discord documentation mentions all channel types are accepted

Which, according to what you say, is wrong

yeah i wanted to test it using jishaku

i guess i need to host one myself

is it for slash command or select component

Guild Forums are channel type 15 and public/private threads 11 and 12. Can probably try it out

[thin raft]

dopn't use forumchannel

[slate swan]

the forum channel select

[thin raft]

what's the command for?

[slate swan]

That

[thin raft]

!d discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord

In order to work with the library and the Discord API in general, we must first create a Discord Bot account.

Creating a Bot account is a pretty straightforward process.

Similar names: disnake.discord, nextcord.discord

[slate swan]

Is the bot in the thread already? Dunno if it matters

And it's a thread channel if you want them to send in threads

!d discord.Thread

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Thread

class discord.Thread```
Represents a Discord thread.

x == y Checks if two threads are equal.

x != y Checks if two threads are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the thread’s hash.

str(x) Returns the thread’s name.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

how do you sync slash commands in discord py

im noob

tree.sync I guess

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.sync

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.sync

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

Syncs the application commands to Discord.

This also runs the translator to get the translated strings necessary for feeding back into Discord.

This must be called for the application commands to show up.

[slate swan]

awaitable

Yeah that

It's as bot.tree

yeah i know but how do you set testing guild in it

o there is guild keyword

well works then

there is x command with no errors but i have no threads to check on

Probably want discord.Thread

As they're independent I suppose

A forum channel contains threads and they want to send in threads

[hasty pike]

[slate swan]

still works

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

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

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

how about threads i cant check rn

[buoyant quail]

Ye, works too

[hasty pike]

[slate swan]

is it possible to run a bot inside another one?

[slate swan]

pog

[slate swan]

why would you want to do that

[slate swan]

like i want to create a bot , that runs another one when a command is done

technically yes but doesnt look like a good solution what is your case

ok i'll try to run another python file when the command is done

Sometimes I wonder what atrocities people do

[twin wave]

If you set it one bot up on a different server then it is possible

[buoyant quail]

Imagine that he is trying to run the same bot

[slate swan]

bro it's an order hh

[buoyant quail]

Recursively

[slate swan]

nope nope , another token

the token will be a parameter on the command

That's more than an atrocity

[slate swan]

ah yes, what a great idea

That's like 21/20 design

lol

[buoyant quail]

100% safe

[slate swan]

awesome hosting idea i would say

LMFAO

[slate swan]

😹

Would trust 21/20 in giving a token to some random bot

Especially if when they save it

And then probably run it on Replit

[slate swan]

bro i'm not gonna give it to public .-.

not about token imagine someone makes a bot that all does is delete all files ☠️

[twin wave]

Actually I tried to do it once but each discord bot needs its own running instance to work

[slate swan]

the code will be on my file, all the person will do is to run the command with the token , and the project is made by mee

lmfao

How about just inviting your bot

[slate swan]

why would someone want to give your bot a token to run your bot

If it's to run 1 to 1 the same

Sounds like shit

[slate swan]

idk, that's not mine, one of my clients told me to do that and i'll do it

[hasty pike]

Bro is high af 💀

[buoyant quail]

I got it, that's like these videos, but you don't even need to do something. Just get a token.

[slate swan]

so you are doing bots for money but you dont even do them yourself?

[hasty pike]

Skidders

[slate swan]

i just asked ! like if it's possible or not, cuz i don't want to try , and finally i can't you know

everything is possible but not everything should be done

[slate swan]

yep .-. that's why i'm here !

[hasty pike]

Imagine people saying in comments "from where do i get bot token"

[buoyant quail]

I believe there are

[hasty pike]

Exactly 😭

[slate swan]

hhhhhhhh there are

[slate swan]

yp

good bye .-.

isnt it goodbye

Could be both

But you'd put a comma in-between

okay but thats not a comma

[buoyant quail]

Bad bye

[dense barn]

i want to add a hyperlink to an embed but the link has parentheses, too. like
https://smth.ssm.smthing/file(x).zip
and since the format for the hyperlink is [Text](Link) I'm wondering if my link will cut off on the x part and if so, what do I do to fix it?

[slate swan]

you can try escaping that ()

using \

[hasty pike]

[dense barn]

how so?

[hasty pike]

You don't know how to use special characters?

https://www.w3schools.com/python/gloss_python_escape_characters.asp#:~:text=An escape character is a,character you want to insert.

[hasty pike]

@dense barn read

[dense barn]

Ah yeah that\

[slate swan]

you put backslash before

[dense barn]

You sound condescending.

[buoyant quail]

Why didn't you even try it before asking..
It works fine with just that string

[slate swan]

**hello**

[hasty pike]

[buoyant quail]

[hello](https://smth.ssm.smthing/file(x).zip)
(copy link gives the valid link)

[slate swan]

so you can sent texts like this

yeah i could have just tested it

[hasty pike]

hello

[hasty pike]

How tf you did this

[buoyant quail]

**hello**

[hasty pike]

hello

[buoyant quail]

You don't know how to use special characters?)

[slate swan]

i cant even show you that cause i have links masking on my server

[hasty pike]

Works on discord?

[buoyant quail]

yeah

[slate swan]

yes

[silk wasp]

yes

[hasty pike]

Well i didn't know that

technically you dont need to escape last two stars

how did you broke it like this

[buoyant quail]

# 49. 49. 49. 49. 49. wat

||# big boi spoiler ||

[hasty pike]

[slate swan]

the View takes 1 argument but you gave two

Why did you give a bot variable in that

[naive briar]

It doesn't take any arguments

[slate swan]

oh yeah its self

[naive briar]

Why wouldn't you know

So, you don't even know if a class you created take arguments?

Amazing

[sick birch]

Yes

[marble rampart]

with discord.py anyone knows how can i use slash commands as sub commands ?

[slate swan]

Create a command group

Add commands to that group

[marble rampart]

but how do i add a slash command to that group

[slate swan]

Just like you add commands to a bot tree

[marble rampart]

right now i have this

    @commands.group(name="verify",invoke_without_command=True)
    async def verify(ctx):
        return
    
    @verify.command(name="setup",description="setup a verify channel")
    async def setup(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        view = SetupView()
        embed = Embed(title="Verification setup",colour=discord.Colour.brand_green(),description="``yaml\nuse the next drop down menu to select the roles that will be given to users after verification (MAX: 3)\n``")
        
        await interaction.response.send_message(view=view,embed=embed)  

how do i make it slash

[slate swan]

That's not a slash command, that's a prefix command

[marble rampart]

i know thats what im asking because its in a cog and i dont know what the hell am i doing

nvm i found something thanks for trying to help me

Save your file

[dense barn]

i'm having trouble right now trying to use local files for images.

./images
  img.png
./cogs
  code.py
bot.py

So I want to put an author image img.png to my embed from code.py. How exactly do I access a file one parent directory then another folder in? I saw this

f = discord.File("some_file_path", filename="img.png")
e = discord.Embed()
e.set_image(url="attachment://image.png")
await ctx.send(file=f, embed=e)

but how exactly do I change some_file_path ? Should it be ../images/ or something else entirely

[hushed galleon]

relative filepaths are based on your CWD (current working directory) regardless of where the script is, so if your CWD is the folder containing bot.py, the relative path to your image would be images/img.png

[slate swan]

Don't remove what you had before with intents

[formal basin]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

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

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

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

New in version 2.0.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

New in version 2.0...

[slate swan]

wym ,could u elaborate?

I told you to save, not delete lines

[slate swan]

so what do i do

Add those lines back

they are alr in

on the bottom

Where are they?

Can't see intents=intents there

Maybe I'm blind though

[tired pine]

in discord.py how do you know whether an interaction is coming from a mobile device user or desktop

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

class discord.Member```
Represents a Discord member to a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This implements a lot of the functionality of [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

x == y Checks if two members are equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

x != y Checks if two members are not equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the member’s handle (e.g. `name` or `name#discriminator`).

[slate swan]

And why do you have twice all of that

You need to define it once, at the top.

[slate swan]

@tired pine go to the docs and read the methods/attributes

the names are in most cases self explainatory so you will find what you need

[slate swan]

naming a Bot instance client how awesome

[turbid condor]

Welp lot of ppl do that now idk why

[slate swan]

so i jus change everything to bot? dont thibk that will affect it g

[turbid condor]

Nah just keep it as it is

[slate swan]

it wont change anything except the understability of your code

[slate swan]

Because they all follow the same crappy tutorials

[turbid condor]

Idk why but ppl should go to docs or the dpy gist for examples

[slate swan]

in my opinion it is because they read/watch tutorial from 3 years ago which told them to use Client then someone here told them to switch to Bot but the name stayed

so what shall i do

[turbid condor]

But instead they all go to yt

[slate swan]

what you have problem with?

[turbid condor]

Just run your file

[slate swan]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

i did

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. Various features of discord.py rely on having particular intents enabled, further detailed in its documentation. Since discord.py v2.0.0, it has become mandatory for developers to explicitly define the values of these intents in their code.

There are standard and privileged intents. To use privileged intents like Presences, Server Members, and Message Content, you have to first enable them in the Discord Developer Portal. In there, go to the Bot page of your application, scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, and enable the privileged intents that you need. Standard intents can be used without any changes in the developer portal.

Afterwards in your code, you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

# Enable all standard intents and message content
# (prefix commands generally require message content)
intents = Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

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

For more info about using intents, see discord.py's related guide, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[slate swan]

Already told you holy moly

Remove that code and just keep the code below

You don't need to define twice client

You don't need to import everything twice

Once. At the top.

[turbid condor]

Yeah that is the problem since u are defining client twice where in one of them u haven't put the intents

Replace line 13 with line 44

And then delete the line 37 to 44

This should fix your problem

[tired pine]

I'm at my grandma's house it's hard to find the things you need with the docs on mobile

[slate swan]

if you dont have pc right now you wont be able to code anyways

[turbid condor]

Welp the answer to your question was that u can create a check where it checks what is the user status

[slate swan]

i belive his question was if the user is on mobile or desktop

[turbid condor]

Yeah there is a method to check that in dpy

[slate swan]

yeah i know

i want him to go to docs and just look on the methods

the names are self explainatory

[tired pine]

I can because I know dpy very well

[turbid condor]

Then try looking at docs

I'm pretty sure u will find it easily

[kindred iron]

    async def lock(self, ctx : commands.Context,
                    channel : Optional[discord.abc.GuildChannel],
                    time : Optional[TimeConverter],
                    *,
                    reason : str = "No Reason Provided"):
        if not channel :
            channel = ctx.channel



        await channel.set_permissions(ctx.guild.default_role, reason=reason, send_messages = False)
        await ctx.send("channel locked",delete_after = 15 , ephemeral = True)

        if time
            await asyncio.sleep(time)
            # unlock the channel

So , I'm trying to temp locking a channel.
I'm wondering if this is the way to go.

( I mean the sleep method)

[slate swan]

it is good but has one con

• when you restart the bot and there was one channel locked ongoing it will stop waiting for it and will never unlock it

[kindred iron]

So what's the solution

[tired pine]

I'm not gonna keep looking for it on mobile I just wanna know the methods name and I'll find it myself on the docs

bruh

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

class discord.Member```
Represents a Discord member to a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This implements a lot of the functionality of [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

x != y Checks if two members are not equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the member’s handle (e.g. `name` or `name#discriminator`).

[tired pine]

asking for the name is bad nowadays cuz people won't answer you when they know

[slate swan]

here are the docs

[tired pine]

dude I know it's a guild member

you know what nvm

[slate swan]

its not about i dont wanna show you the answer its about i wanna show you how to look for solutions

[tired pine]

I'm not your 9 yo son to teach me how to look for solutions if I was on PC I would find it myself but I have a hard time doing it on mobile

[slate swan]

easiest one:
you can have infinite loop ongoing for example each 30 seconds which will check if there is any channel locked and if there is if the duration has passed

[turbid condor]

Zzz

[slate swan]

There's a wonderful search bar

[slate swan]

then wait until you have a pc

[kindred iron]

Make sense

[slate swan]

why you need to know it so bad now when you cant code on mobile anyways

[kindred iron]

Thanks

[slate swan]

👍

[dense barn]

Why is this not working?

f = discord.File("../images/bot_icon.png", filename="bot_icon.png")
        embed.set_thumbnail(url="attachment://bot_icon.png")
        embed.set_footer(text=f"Requested by {context.author}", icon_url = context.author.avatar.url)
        await context.send(file = f, embed=embed)

It's giving me No such file or directory, this worked before but I don't know where I went wrong this time. My bot_icon is not being found.

[turbid condor]

Ok just look for something called is_on_mobile that might help

[slate swan]

file structure?

[dense barn]

./images
  bot_icon.png
./cogs
  code.py
bot.py

[kindred iron]

Btw should i use while loop or task.ext ( i can check if duration is passed bc bot send embed with duration)

[slate swan]

and where is this script located

[tired pine]

I am able to edit .py files with an app, I run the files using a server

[slate swan]

loops for sure

[dense barn]

On code.py

[slate swan]

How do you run the file

[hushed galleon]

^

[kindred iron]

Thanks for you help

[dense barn]

yeah it worked before but somehow while i was changing stuff up I messed up and now it's not working.

[slate swan]

if you can do so many hard things on mobile im sure you can use search bar or scroll through docs for sure

[turbid condor]

I told u what to look for tbh u could have found it by searching for mobile in docs

[tired pine]

No I have a hard time doing that, it's okay I asked ChatGPT and I got a proper answer

[slate swan]

how about .././images/bot_icon.png no idea actually your current one should work

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/search.html?q=mobile

It's very hard I know

Don't get scared when you see how complicated it is

maybe this method existed that days

new one is march edition iirc but yeah not like there are a lot of decent data for it base of upon

        leave.set_footer(text=f"Nous sommes désormais : ")
        await channel.send(embed=leave)

[slate swan]

didnt use it since like february

[hushed galleon]

then for ../images/bot_icon.png to be valid, the CWD would have to be a subdirectory of your project directory containing the images/ directory, such as cogs/ (this would also imply you might have ran bot.py by doing python ../bot.py or similar)

[tired pine]

wow you clearly don't know about it do you

[slate swan]

Not a bad thing

[slate swan]

show your cog constructor

[buoyant crescent]

in my main ?

[tired pine]

if ChatGPT only has knowledge from before 2021 it wouldn't be able to give me proper 2.2 dpy code

[slate swan]

no the cog you just sent sample code of

you know they dont shuffle method names each version this could have existed those days

Okay okay, I think I got it now. This is making sense in my head right now but hopefully I don't lose it anymore. Thanks!

[buoyant crescent]

oh thank you

[tired pine]

no I recognised it was a version higher than 2.1 because I read the update logs

[slate swan]

wow, reading docs

[slate swan]

oh so you can read the docs

thought you cant do that on mobile

[dense barn]

[tired pine]

I read them on PC that's one

[slate swan]

thats awesome i guess

oh you got a pc already look how awesome

[tired pine]

second, I said I was on mobile because I'm at my grandma's for a week

[slate swan]

you can scroll docs already yourself

no need my help now

[tired pine]

I didn't even use my PC

[dense barn]

the time you spent here arguing you could have spent scrolling through docs

[slate swan]

you read something on a PC without having a PC thats odd

[tired pine]

No because I am sitting next to some people rn and waiting for them to go

[dense barn]

[turbid condor]

And I already told u what u should look in docs

[tired pine]

Huh, I was talking about a situation from weeks ago

[slate swan]

oh so a week ago you already knew you will need to know when was something realeased so you read the docs

mysterious

[tired pine]

on PC yes?

[buoyant crescent]

hi i have seen people talking about nextcord, is it better than discord.py

[turbid condor]

Nope

[tired pine]

isn't nextcord a fork of dpy

[slate swan]

i use it for my personnal projects so in my opinion it is

[turbid condor]

They are equal

[slate swan]

Both are different and doing things differently, choose whatever you want

[buoyant crescent]

dpy ?

[slate swan]

In the end you end up with the same features

[buoyant crescent]

ok thank's

[tired pine]

I've never seen anybody so quick to assume things than you 😂

[turbid condor]

I'd say go with what u feel comfortable with

[tired pine]

short for discord.py

[slate swan]

they both have the same features/functionality they just have different naming or how you make things

[buoyant crescent]

ok ok

[turbid condor]

Man just go and check is_on_mobile in docs and u can build a logic from that

[tired pine]

You could have said that 30 minutes ago lmaoo

[turbid condor]

I already did if u noticed

[slate swan]

Maybe if you would read it'd be useful

[turbid condor]

.

[tired pine]

if u did mb but the guy named Down didn't so I was here arguing to make time go, I'll go now

[slate swan]

for example:

# discord.py
@bot.tree.command()
@app_commands.describe(
    first_value='The first value you want to add something to',
    second_value='The value you want to add to the first value',
)
async def add(interaction: discord.Interaction, first_value: int, second_value: int):
    """Adds two numbers together."""
    await interaction.response.send_message(f'{first_value} + {second_value} = {first_value + second_value}')



# nextcord
@bot.slash_command()
async def add(interaction: nextcord.Interaction, first_value: int = SlashOption(description="The first value you want to add something to", second_value: int = SlashOption(description="The value you want to add to the first value")))
    """Adds two numbers together."""
    await interaction.send(f'{first_value} + {second_value} = {first_value + second_value}')

To be fair I prefer discord.py here

[turbid condor]

Same

[slate swan]

Slapping everything like that in the parameters, meh..

Just horrible imo

in this example it might be more readable for discord.py but knowing all features of it i still stick with nextcord

[turbid condor]

Welp it comes down to what u feel comfortable with

[tired pine]

If it's your first discord library in python I suggest you start with dpy

[turbid condor]

You can start with any of them some ppl find one easier then other

[slate swan]

I thought you had to go

[turbid condor]

XD

[dense barn]

[fringe lake]

idk if this is the correct channel but, whenever i click "ctrl + c" to stop the file, it wont allow me to write commands again

can someone mention me if he knows the solution pls ?

[slate swan]

ctrl + c stops the script

so the bot will stop

[buoyant quail]

# disnake
@bot.slash_command()
async def add(interaction: disnake.Interaction, first_value: int, second_value: int):
    """
    Adds two numbers together.

    Parameters
    ----------
    first_value: The first value you want to add something to
    second_value: The value you want to add to the first value
    """
    await interaction.send(f'{first_value} + {second_value} = {first_value + second_value}')

or you can do the same as in nextcord

first_value: int = commands.Param(description=...)

[slate swan]

now we need to wait for some py-cord expert

(not gonna happen)

[buoyant quail]

hikari

[slate swan]

i used the second option when i was using disnake

maybe thats cause i was used to nextcord style

@buoyant quail you use disnake daily?

[buoyant quail]

yes

[slate swan]

this valid? ```py
@commands.slash_command()
@blocked_command()
async def quiz(
self,
inter: disnake.GuildCommandInteraction,
category: str = commands.Param(choices=QUIZ_CATEGORY_CHOICES, default="images"), # type: ignore
) -> None:

[spice dirge]

im just lurking but since the topic is on api wrappers, i recently made one https://aiocord.readthedocs.io, would be cool if yall could check it out and give some feedback :>

[buoyant quail]

yeah, should be

[slate swan]

I'll eventually check when I'm not on the phone because the website is unfortunately un-useable on phone

[slate swan]

why is token passed via command

[spice dirge]

yeah the docs are not responsive 😢 tough stuff

[slate swan]

And yeah ^

[spice dirge]

ease of use, not necessary https://aiocord.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/examples.html#integration

[slate swan]

That's instantly a no-go

[spice dirge]

it can also be set via a environment variable

[slate swan]

At least don't put it in the front page

That's one of the worst thing to do

[spice dirge]

how come?

[slate swan]

i was thinking about env varriables but since there is a way

Your token is in the history in plaintext

Either read from stdin or don't do it at all

[spice dirge]

what's the difference than it being somewhere in a file?

[slate swan]

Ideally showcase the environment variable method on the home page, that's how you store secrets these days

[slate swan]

Not necessarily in a file

[spice dirge]

where would u store ur token then?

[buoyant quail]

[slate swan]

Environment variables are not always .env files fyi

[spice dirge]

what about this?

[slate swan]

you can still access them easily with access to the machine too

Yeah that's always the case

[spice dirge]

idk i put the command line method in the front page cause it's the easiest to use, i'm sure whoever decides to use this in production will have looked into the other options as well

[slate swan]

Still better than using a command line

I'd at least showcase the environment variable method on the home page

And mention you can pass the token via a flag

[spice dirge]

idk how else you would do menu components! all this information is more or less necessary for discord

[slate swan]

Also there are some overall CSS issues

[spice dirge]

i'd love feedback on it

it's my first time doing custom css with sphinx

[slate swan]

https://aiocord.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/examples.html#http-only the highlighted lines in the code block here are stopping on smaller width windows

[spice dirge]

i get a scroll bar for it?

[slate swan]

And shouldn't syntax highlight highlight more?

[slate swan]

Yes and scroll to the right, the highlight will stop

[spice dirge]

i could use a different stynax highlighter

[spice dirge]

oh shoot ur right, good catch

[slate swan]

I'd change the font for inline code to monospaced as well

[fringe lake]

i mean, when the bot stop it should allow me to excute commands, but yasterday this problem happened, it just keep that blank and not allow me to type anything

[spice dirge]

u mean these, right? they are already monospaced

[slate swan]

And yeah I'll check out the rest tomorrow and play around with the library when on PC, if you want to remind me just ping me in case I forget

[spice dirge]

u seem like ur good at giving feedback so i'll make sure to poke again :'>

[slate swan]

The note here at the bottom isn't https://aiocord.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/examples.html#

Only place I found while scrolling a bit

[spice dirge]

oh that's not meant to be code, just special highlighting-ish

like it doesn't have the :code: directive for rst

but that's still monospaced :O same font as the black thingies

[slate swan]

Maybe my browser/mobile that shows brew install ffmpeg non monospaced

[slate swan]

did you focus on the terminal?

try pressing ctrl + c few times

[spice dirge]

that's really weird

ur browser just kinda gave up there

[slate swan]

Yeah then I guess my browser

[kindred iron]

Ig connecting to a data base and not closing the connection?

[fringe lake]

i will try that

[fringe lake]

yeah, maybe i will check my scripts

thank you guys

[sharp whale]

Hi, i want to send the users name, and profile picture as author line in embed, how do i access name and icon (in a modal class)

i think its Tasks

[slate swan]

are you using discord.py ?

[sharp whale]

not tasks

!discord.ext.Tasks

[slate swan]

its not capital for sure

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/tasks/index.html

and it is tasks

[sharp whale]

it is tasks

[slate swan]

try updating discord.py to latest version

[sharp whale]

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

class discord.Member```
Represents a Discord member to a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This implements a lot of the functionality of [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

x == y Checks if two members are equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

x != y Checks if two members are not equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the member’s handle (e.g. `name` or `name#discriminator`).

[sharp whale]

discord.Member.name

[slate swan]

there are docs for a reason

[sharp whale]

discord.Member.Avatar

[sharp whale]

its hard to locate

[slate swan]

it just works?

its logging system

[sharp whale]

its not an error, it just logs the work done

[slate swan]

it means that ClientUser does not have avatar_url attribute

!d discord.ClientUser

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ClientUser

class discord.ClientUser```
Represents your Discord user.

x == y Checks if two users are equal.

x != y Checks if two users are not equal.

hash(x) Return the user’s hash.

str(x) Returns the user’s handle (e.g. `name` or `name#discriminator`).

[slate swan]

go check yourself what it has and sort out what you need

[sharp whale]

hmm, what if i want the avatar as url

[slate swan]

did you see what type avatar attribute is?

[sharp whale]

yes

[slate swan]

and what is that

[sharp whale]

i used discord.Member.display_avatar

it isnt url

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'ClientUser' object has no attribute 'avatar_url'

it really says the error

[slate swan]

this is good attribute

im asking what type is it

[sharp whale]

wdym

[slate swan]

type

[sharp whale]

asset

[slate swan]

oh nice and what attributes does asset have

[sharp whale]

LMAO

i didnt realise that

[slate swan]

now you know how to use the docs

icon_url=bot.user.avatar_url

there is no such thing as avatar_url

!d discord.ClientUser

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ClientUser

class discord.ClientUser```
Represents your Discord user.

x == y Checks if two users are equal.

x != y Checks if two users are not equal.

hash(x) Return the user’s hash.

str(x) Returns the user’s handle (e.g. `name` or `name#discriminator`).

[sharp whale]

AttributeError: 'property' object has no attribute 'url'

[slate swan]

go to the docs and see what is has and how can you get the avatar url now

[slate swan]

what did you do so you have property

[sharp whale]

i dont know.

[slate swan]

so show me the code

[sharp whale]

i used this discord.Member.display_avatar.url

[slate swan]

[sharp whale]

dont laugh

or die

[slate swan]

you need to get some member object instance

[sharp whale]

using emoji

[slate swan]

not a whole class

[sharp whale]

uh what

[slate swan]

go to the docs i linked and search how to gather avatar url

[slate swan]

man thats OOP basics 😭

you need to know this before doing discord bot

[formal basin]

!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...

[formal basin]

!d discord.Client

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client

class discord.Client(*, intents, **options)```
Represents a client connection that connects to Discord. This class is used to interact with the Discord WebSocket and API.

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

New in version 2.0.

A number of options can be passed to the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

[slate swan]

!e ```py

good:

myclass = MyClass(15)
print(myclass.get_value())

bad (wont work):

print(MyClass.get_value())

[slate swan]

first one worked

second did not

to use methods you need a class object unless its static method (its not in your case so does not matter)

@whole hull

also i should mention that you dont create Member object yourself library gives them to you

for example when you have the Context you get into your slash command there is .author attribute which is of type Member

[sharp whale]

how did u mention without ping

[slate swan]

and you can use it

[formal basin]

!d

[slate swan]

i think thats wrong trix 🤫

[sharp whale]

LMAO now he will be confused as hell

how do i get the avatar url brehhhh

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

get the Member object and then do .display_avatar.url whats so hard

when did you write it

[sharp whale]

das not working

[slate swan]

cause avatar_url is old attribute

that does not exist any more

[slate swan]

you are not havin Member object now

[sharp whale]

discord.Member.display_avatar.url

[slate swan]

thats not a Member object

[sharp whale]

whats a Member object then

[slate swan]

learn OOP its mandatory for a discord bot

[sharp whale]

are you talking about variable

[slate swan]

instance of the Member class

[whole hull]

ok ty mate

[sharp whale]

Member = interaction.author

this?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Interaction

[unkempt canyon]

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.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

why dont you check yourself

[sharp whale]

my brain not braining

but theres no ctx or anything to get the user

[slate swan]

yeah totally there is no user

[tired pollen]

Lol

[sharp whale]

wao

bot.user.display_avatar.url

it sends bot's avatar bruh

[slate swan]

maybe cause bot.user returns the bot itself

who would imagine it wont give you random member the bot wont even know

duh what a library isnt it

[sharp whale]

._.

[sick birch]

@sharp whale are you looking to get the avatar URL of the user who invoked the command?

(Sorry I just got here and I'm missing context)

[sharp whale]

user who submited the modal*

[sick birch]

Can you show your entire code file?

[sharp whale]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ojomocurom

@sick birch

[sick birch]

Acknowledged. One moment

Yeah so as the others have pointed out you need to call the .display_avatar property on an instance of discord.Member, not the class itself. This is what you have:

avatar = discord.Member.display_avatar

For example, if you wanted to get the username of the user who submitted the modal, you'd do interaction.user.name where interaction.user is the discord.Member object who submitted the modal

The same concept applies to getting a .display_avatar

[sharp whale]

how

  File "/home/runner/sugg-bot/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/ui/modal.py", line 188, in _scheduled_task
    await self.on_submit(interaction)
  File "main.py", line 31, in on_submit
    avatar = Interaction.User.display_avatar
AttributeError: type object 'Interaction' has no attribute 'User'```

sorry, my english is bad

[slate swan]

Even copy paste doesn't work

[sick birch]

Interaction is the class, not the instance
If you'll notice on line 27 of your code, you have:

  async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):

interaction: discord.Interaction indicates 2 things:

1. interaction is the variable containing the instance
2. discord.Interaction is the type (or the class) of the variable interaction

You (usually) always call methods and properties on instances

[sharp whale]

hmm

[sick birch]

I think you seem to have some trouble understanding the differences between classes and instance, I think this article covers it pretty well ~ https://realpython.com/python3-object-oriented-programming/#classes-vs-instances

[sharp whale]

i want to get the url of the avatar

[sick birch]

You can get the url of a discord.Asset object by calling the .url property on an instance of discord.Asset

You can, in turn, get an instance of discord.Asset by calling the .display_avatar property on an instance of discord.Member

[sharp whale]

works 👍

ty robin

[hasty pike]

Mistake

Intents

discord.Intents.all()

Np

[uneven ice]

anybody know how to fix this error? C:\Users\Metal\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp9s8v2jv2.wav: Permission denied

its for my discord tts bot

[slate swan]

I'm getting a error with this error is below

You probably wanted bot.latency instead

oh yup forgot i was using bot

i normally use client :v

            await ctx.send("Please give a valid user ID to unban.")

Error occured: Member "1043451874164092968" not found.

why the bot is not reading the members id

[silk wasp]

The error Member "1043451874164092968" not found indicates that the member with the given ID cannot be found in the guild. This could be due to the member ID being invalid or the member not being banned.

To fix this issue u need to check for the id in the for loop instead

[winter token]

and yes the member is banned, id is valid

[sick birch]

The unban command fundamentally does not work with discord.Member because to parse an ID into a discord.Member object, they need to be in the server in the first place (which they can't be, since this is an unban command)

You probably should attempt to parse it as an int by typehinting it as such, then passing in a discord.Object into guild.unban

[winter token]

huh

[slate swan]

robin is saying that unban command is uncompatiable with discord.Member

Error

Code

[tough kernel]

so i've been working on a little discord bot game, i've had to restart when i started formatting it to slash commands, but recently i've been getting this:
Error: 404 Not Found (error code: 10015): Unknown Webhook
does anyone have an idea about whats causing this? it began when i was trying to implement a check for timeouts as i was getting them alot and was suggested that i put in lines to catch it

[winter token]

[sick birch]

member = await guild.fetch_member(id) this isn't going to work, they won't be in the guild (they're banned)

You actually don't need a member object to unban someone
You can pass in discord.Object(id=user_id) directly into guild.unban

[slate swan]

can anyone help me with this

[slate swan]

did anything work?

[winter token]

hm idk abt discord.Object

[sick birch]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=discord object#discord.Object

[winter token]

what does it do?

[sick birch]

It just represents a generic ID

so id is in built and user_id is the input we give

btw what does bot.fetch_user do?

u cant do this .-.

u cant just put a function callable method to a function args

then wht do i do

u can treat the duration as a str

ok but it worked yesterday in my wierd code

when i passed function as an arg

i meant yesterday I did the same way in my weird code if u remember

but it did work

[silk wasp]

u did this what and it works right?

[silk wasp]

it the same i provided u here

[winter token]

I wanna know why duration: time_conv didnt work

[little ether]

because, if you wanna do a converter in a type-hint like that, you have to make a Converter class, iirc, its been a long time since i touched d.py

[silk wasp]

u need to learn this call type hint

is basically an annotations that specify the expected type of values for variables, function parameters, and return values.

!d discord.ext.commands.Converter

discord.ext.commands.Converter

class discord.ext.commands.Converter(*args, **kwargs)```
The base class of custom converters that require the [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context") to be passed to be useful.

This allows you to implement converters that function similar to the special cased `discord` classes.

Classes that derive from this should override the [`convert()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Converter.convert "discord.ext.commands.Converter.convert") method to do its conversion logic. This method must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.11)").
