[warm coral]

vscode terminal?

[slate swan]

Bro Asher take water

[shrewd apex]

files rest within folders not within files 🗿

[slate swan]

Bro u ask tomorrow

[cloud dawn]

But you could.

[shrewd apex]

technically yeah but would u?

[cloud dawn]

Isn't a zip file technically just one file?

[slate swan]

Pandab

[shrewd apex]

u cant make edits

[cloud dawn]

niti

[slate swan]

Bro anyone solve my problem

[shrewd apex]

with unzipping it

[cloud dawn]

Just unzip an rezip it everytime.

[shrewd apex]

totally

[slate swan]

What unzip vro

[cloud dawn]

What?

[warm coral]

@shrewd apex i typed it in the terminal and i doesnt work too

the vscode terminal

[slate swan]

How to insert return these .replace(r"\x", "") in re.sub(r'src=\s?"//(.)?"', r'src="https://0.0.0.1/"', html_text) insert in these line

[shrewd apex]

ur vscode terminal has same path as your main terminal unless u in a workspace or u opened vscode from ur terminal path what i am saying is navigate to your python file folder and make sure the path to this folder is what is shown in your terminal as well

[warm coral]

ooooh

ok

[cloud dawn]

I assume the r'src is just gibberish to what you want to achieve?

[slate swan]

Bro open cmd in your folder

[shrewd apex]

exactly

[warm coral]

im so dumb

[slate swan]

Remove extra space from scrapping text showing /x

[slate swan]

No bro

[shrewd apex]

i am gonna go sleep gn guys

[cloud dawn]

Before or after the \x?

[cloud dawn]

gn

[slate swan]

Yes

[buoyant quail]

gn

[slate swan]

Lol

[cloud dawn]

hmm

Or both sides? Uknown amount of spaces?

[slate swan]

Yes bro both side

[hasty pike]

What are you guys even doing

[cloud dawn]

a single space on both size or uknown amount?

[slate swan]

See

\x

[hasty pike]

@buoyant quail how do I update button emoji on after interaction?

[cloud dawn]

You want to remove the text that's overlapping?

[slate swan]

Click on button

[slate swan]

Yessss bro

[hasty pike]

Very nice answer but i don't need answers from you. Thanks.

[cloud dawn]

Could you show the code of a sentince that has that weird overlapping?

[buoyant quail]

I believe you can just do button.emoji = ...

And then you need to edit the message ofc

[hasty pike]

Lemme show you my code

[slate swan]

def slugify(value: str, allow_unicode: bool = False) -> str:
"""
slugify the names of files

:param value: string to be slugify
:type value: str
:param allow_unicode: allow unicode
:type allow_unicode: bool
:return: string after slugify
:rtype: str
"""
value = str(value)
if allow_unicode:
value = unicodedata.normalize('NFKC', value)
else:
value = unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', value).encode('ascii', 'ignore').decode('ascii')
value = re.sub(r'[^\w\s-]', '', value.lower())
return re.sub(r'[-\s]+', '-', value).strip('-_')

[hasty pike]

    if player.is_playing():
      button.emoji = '<![play](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1134067079180464188.webp?size=128 "play")1134067079180464188>'
      await player.pause()
      await interaction.edit_original_response(view=self)
    if player.is_paused():
      button.emoji = '<![pause](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1134067069848133684.webp?size=128 "pause")1134067069848133684>'
      await interaction.edit_original_response(view=self)

@buoyant quail

[slate swan]

@cloud dawn

My code above of these code

[warm coral]

when i do python main.py

[hasty pike]

He has eyes ig

[buoyant quail]

You have two < in the beginning

[slate swan]

What u making bro

[warm coral]

a bot?

[cloud dawn]

Thanks but I meant like the raw string.

[hasty pike]

That's because i copy pasted

[buoyant quail]

So there is only one?

[hasty pike]

@buoyant quail look

[buoyant quail]

errors?

[slate swan]

Which type of these string

[cloud dawn]

The one that contains weird overlapping.

[hasty pike]

No errors just button isn't working
It's showing This interaction failed

[slate swan]

How I know bro 1k line code

[hasty pike]

You wrote it you should know

[buoyant quail]

Are you sure that one of these conditions is true?

[cloud dawn]

CTRL+F on some words that are close with the overlapping text.

[slate swan]

Ok

[hasty pike]

I used them as docs said 🙂

But you have a point

[buoyant quail]

Add prints to check

[formal basin]

class it

[hasty pike]

Tf?

[formal basin]

class PauseButton(discord.ui.View):
   def __init__(self):
      super().__init__(timeout=None)
#rest of code```

[slate swan]

Ctrl+f

Show search option

@cloud dawn

[hasty pike]

You're out of context ig

[formal basin]

how?

[hasty pike]

I have a class but issue is with that specific button

[cloud dawn]

Yeah and search the overlapping text then.

Or just give me the whole raw text if you can't find it.

[formal basin]

oh ok

[hasty pike]

@buoyant quail it printed

[buoyant quail]

Try interaction.response.edit_message
I am not sure about edit_original_response

[formal basin]

yeah

[buoyant quail]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/counter.py#L35-L36

[unkempt canyon]

examples/views/counter.py lines 35 to 36

# Make sure to update the message with our updated selves
await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)```

[hasty pike]

[formal basin]

or do on the command message = interaction.original_response()

then do message.edit(content=)

[buoyant quail]

It will take two api calls

[hasty pike]

I tried interaction.edit_message
And still it showed interaction failed and printed too

[buoyant quail]

Do you have error handlers?

[hasty pike]

Yes

[formal basin]

I use it

[slate swan]

https://pastebin.com/print/7wvvcvtN

[buoyant quail]

Show them

[slate swan]

@cloud dawn

[hasty pike]

Wait I should try it inside try except

[slate swan]

Sorry disturbing bro

[cloud dawn]

Does this include the site data? Because that's what I'm after.

[slate swan]

Yes

[cloud dawn]

Doesn't look like it I'd need to run this code.

[slate swan]

Many files

But these is scrapping file

Which scrap answer

[cloud dawn]

I just need one containing the overlapping issue.

[hasty pike]

'interaction' object has no attribute edit_message @buoyant quail

[slate swan]

Yes these one

Which I send

[buoyant quail]

Where did you get it

[formal basin]

why not this then?

[buoyant quail]

It was not in yours and in mine codes

[formal basin]

i use it

[cloud dawn]

Oh the code is the scraped file?

[hasty pike]

Wait

[formal basin]

ans it works

[hasty pike]

Here

[buoyant quail]

And what i showed you? :p

[buoyant quail]

.

[hasty pike]

response

[slate swan]

Yes

Scrapping answer from chegg

[cloud dawn]

Lol, confusion lol

[hasty pike]

Worked now thanks @buoyant quail

[cloud dawn]

Oh then not confused

[slate swan]

Beautiful soup

[cloud dawn]

I can't do anything with this code I need the response from the code.

I don't want to run this code just to know what text you get.

[slate swan]

I have bot who scrap answer and and send me

But in some answer

Show isuee which I show in image

[cloud dawn]

I know but you just sent me code. I can't fix the issue if I don't have the raw text from the response.

[agile latch]

Hey I have a purge command that is up and running that however works with a prefix, and I'd like it to be a useable slash command, but cannot figure out how to do it for the life of me... Here's my code :

@client.command()
async def purge(ctx, amount: int):
    if amount > 1000:
        await ctx.send(f"Too many messages to delete ({amount}/1000)")
    else:
        count_members = {}
        async for message in ctx.channel.history(limit=amount):
            if str(message.author) in count_members:
                count_members[str(message.author)] += 1
            else:
                count_members[str(message.author)] = 1
        
        new_string = []
        deleted_messages = 0
        for author, message_deleted in count_members.items():
            new_string.append(f"**{author}**: {message_deleted}")
            deleted_messages += message_deleted
        
        final_string = "\n".join(new_string)
        await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount + 1)
        
        embedVar = discord.Embed(title=f"{deleted_messages} messages were removed", description="", color=0x00ff00)
        embedVar.add_field(name="Deleted Messages", value=final_string, inline=False)
        embed_message = await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)
        await asyncio.sleep(2)
        await embed_message.delete()```

If someone could help me out that would be awesome

[slate swan]

Ok bro I try to fix myself because there many files attached I not able to send you

[cloud dawn]

It's like giving someone a broken computer and not telling them what the issue is.

[cloud dawn]

Well you're in luck since I just need one sentence with the overlapping text in it lol

[slate swan]

Ok wait I find

[buoyant quail]

examples with some explanations

[agile latch]

<3

[cloud dawn]

Just inspect element on a sentence that has overlapping text.

[slate swan]

ok

[cloud dawn]

Anything works.

[slate swan]

<mtext>9 rad/s\xa0</mtext>

[cloud dawn]

Ah makes sense it renders weird.

[slate swan]

yes

it add extra thing \xa0

[cloud dawn]

Delete the whole <mtext>9 rad/s\xa0</mtext> or just \xa0?

[slate swan]

just \xao

actual answer is 9rad/s

bro

[cloud dawn]

[cloud dawn]

I see but it's overlapped because you don't have mjx-assistive-mml

[slate swan]

and for these

[cloud dawn]

It's not rendered correctly

[cloud dawn]

I always do.\

https://pandas.com

[slate swan]

bro these is aws

[cloud dawn]

I'm gonna go to sleep lol
It's a render issue folk over at #web-development are better with this.

[slate swan]

ok u help me lot bro

[cloud dawn]

Just tell them that mjx-assistive-mml tag isn't rendering correctly.

[slate swan]

thank you so much

[slate swan]

ok

[agile latch]

Lots of reading and a few tutorials later, I got a code that doesn't spam errors

But the purge command just doesn't work :)

@bot.tree.command(name="purge")
@app_commands.describe(message_number='How many messages would you like to delete?')
async def purge(ctx: discord.Interaction, message_number: int):
    if message_number > 1000:
        await ctx.response.send_message(f"Too many messages to delete ({message_number}/1000)")
    else:
        count_members = {}
        async for message in ctx.channel.history(limit=message_number):
            if str(message.author) in count_members:
                count_members[str(message.author)] += 1
            else:
                count_members[str(message.author)] = 1
        
        new_string = []
        deleted_messages = 0
        for author, message_deleted in count_members.items():
            new_string.append(f"**{author}**: {message_deleted}")
            deleted_messages += message_deleted
        
        final_string = "\n".join(new_string)
        deleted = await ctx.channel.purge(limit=message_number)
        
        embedVar = discord.Embed(title=f"{len(deleted)} messages were removed", description="", color=0x00ff00)
        embedVar.add_field(name="Deleted Messages", value=final_string, inline=False)
        embed_message = await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)
        await asyncio.sleep(2)
        await embed_message.delete()```

I'm not sure if this might affect it but I set this part at the beginning of my code to be client.event and not bot.event

async def on_ready():
    await tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=guildid))
    await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.playing, name=f'{status_message}', status=discord.Status.dnd))
    print(f"Logged in as {client.user}")
    channel = client.get_channel(status_channel)
    async for message in channel.history(limit=1):
        global msg_id
        msg_id = message.id
    await asyncio.gather(update())

#got this part off a tutorial, I don't understand the details but I understand that it's what syncs the command between the bot and discord

    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print(f"Synced {len(synced)} command(s)")
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)```

Part of the code was made by someone else who used @client.event it's used to interract with a server and is beyond my current scope of understanding, I'm just scared that if I change the wrong shit it will all just break ?

[slate swan]

You shouldn't be making any API calls in on_ready

[agile latch]

Where do you think I should put it

[slate swan]

Make a text command to sync your app commands

[agile latch]

mind if I DM you

[slate swan]

you can also override Client.setup_hook to do async prep work but iirc that gets called before your bot is connected to the gateway so you might get errors or deadlocking

[slate swan]

Failed to build mjx grpcio

how to fix

Not a clue, try make a #1035199133436354600 post or googling it

[agile latch]

check ur DMs real quick

[slate swan]

can someone help me, I made a command, with buttons, but when I click them it says "interaction" has no attribute "send"

[hasty pike]

interaction.response.send_message('Clicked', ephemeral=True)

[pure crag]

is there a better python discord API wrapper out there than discord.py?

[slate swan]

Every is good just preference

[sick birch]

"Better" in what regard?

[pure crag]

eh i phrased that wrong. so im using a very old version of discord.py because i had to go on a forced leave. so im returning and need to rewrite the whole bot because nothing is the same. so at this point im wondering if there's anything i could try to pick up instead of the same old

i guess instead of better i mean, basically the same in terms of ease of use

[sick birch]

I would recommend discord.py simply because it's the most used and therefore has the most community support

You'll have a much higher chance of getting help with discord.py if you get stuck or need help

[slate swan]

is send_embed a thing?

[sick birch]

But ever since the incident there have been other libraries popping up which previous didn't stand a chance

[pure crag]

yeah i know theres a bunch now. i just wanna experiment ig

but out of those, whats good?

[sick birch]

They're all fine except pycord

[pure crag]

whats bad about pycord?

[sick birch]

if you're looking for something completely new try Hikari

Bad community + bad library

[pure crag]

i just noticed pycord has the most starts below discord.py

ah

[pure crag]

i heard something about hikari being kinda abstract compared to discord.py. you know much about it?

[hasty pike]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

await send_message(content=None, *, embed=..., embeds=..., file=..., files=..., view=..., tts=False, ephemeral=False, allowed_mentions=..., suppress_embeds=False, silent=False, delete_after=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def on_button_click(interaction):
    if interaction.custom_id == "command2":
        await interaction.send_message("You clicked on Command 2 button!", ephemeral = False)
    elif interaction.custom_id == "command3":
        await interaction.send_message("You clicked on Command 3 button!", ephemeral = False)

isnt working :(

[hasty pike]

That's not how you respond to button

[slate swan]

then how...

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Help Command", description="List of available commands:")
    embed.add_field(name="Command 1", value="Description of command 1", inline=False)

    embed.add_field(name="Command 3", value="Description of command 3", inline=False)

            super().__init__()

        async def on_timeout(self):
            self.stop()

    class HelpButton(Button):
        def __init__(self, user):
            super().__init__(style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, label="Command 1", custom_id="command1")
            self.user = user

        async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
            if interaction.user == self.user:
                await interaction.send_message("You clicked on Command 1 button!")
            else:
                await interaction.send_message("You are not allowed to click this button!")

    view = HelpView()
    view.add_item(HelpButton(ctx.author))
    view.add_item(Button(label="Command 2", custom_id="command2"))
    view.add_item(Button(label="Command 3", custom_id="command3"))

    await ctx.send(embed=embed, view=view)```

[sick birch]

It's interaction.response.send_message

[hasty pike]

Indentation

Can we make view class inside command? @sick birch

[sick birch]

yes

[hasty pike]

Oh

[sick birch]

You can make classes inside functions and even inside other classes

It's not recommended but it's syntactically correct

[hasty pike]

Learnt something new today,😂

[hasty pike]

@slate swan what did i tell

[slate swan]

now discord isnt logging in via static token

it stays on that

2023-07-28 0240 INFO discord.client logging in using static token
2023-07-28 0236 INFO discord.gateway Shard ID None session has been invalidated.

[sick birch]

[hasty pike]

[slate swan]

there we go

internet being buggy

[slate swan]

is it possible for interaction.edit_message?

im using this for my help command, with buttons, so you can select certain categories

nevermind.

[unique lichen]

can someone explain how do i correct this error?

[slate swan]

TypeError: Interaction.edit_original_response() takes 1 positional argument but 2
were given

i didnt give 2

[sick birch]

Can you show your code?

[slate swan]

       async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
            if interaction.user == self.user:
                await interaction.edit_original_response('You clicked on Command 1 button!')
            else:
                await interaction.response.send_message("You are not allowed to click this button!")```

thats where im getting the error

[sick birch]

If you meant to edit the content of a message, you need to specify that:

await interaction.edit_original_response(content="New content")

[slate swan]

ohhhhh

[slate swan]

can i use embeds inside of (content='')?

[unique lichen]

how do i avoid waking it up

[sick birch]

you have to specify that too, embed=my_embed where my_embed is your embed

[slate swan]

.-.

i give up

[slate swan]

in a channel, idk how to call that

[slate swan]

ok, ive made it reply to 1 button, it works, but it still says interacion failed, how do i fix this?

[slate swan]

last thing, on this line, where do i put the buttons ID?

        async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):```

[upbeat gust]

custom_id?

Is this a subclass of ui.Button? you'd set it in __init__

[loud bronze]

does anyone have the documentation for python discord bot thing?

[turbid condor]

Which library are you thinking of working with?

[loud bronze]

im just looking for anything , what library would you recomend for discord bots?

[naive briar]

discord.py, obviously

[loud bronze]

mb

[turbid condor]

discord.py is a good one if u want to build a discord bot

But inorder to create a discord bot using u will need to have an understanding of oops

[dry sedge]

How do I make my bot so that it starts multiple websocket connections in the same call so I can have like different instruments playing without overlapping its like a different voice call for each instrument with the same bot in the same voice call

[turbid condor]

Wouldn't that get you rate limited pretty quick?

[sick birch]

You need to somehow compose all the individual instruments into one track before playing it

[rugged shadow]

fix your sleep schedule

[unique lichen]

What

[rugged shadow]

sync your clock

if you're using Windows it shld be here

[hushed galleon]

apparently its trying to sleep until a datetime which has already been 10 minutes in the past
what's your code? how did you specify the time for your loop? are you using discord.py 2.0 or a different library like pycord?

looking through dpy's source i cant comprehend how this is possible in the first place, so having details to reproduce the bug would be helpful

[graceful basin]

hey yall! i gotta question...how can i add buttons in my discord bot using discord.py?

i found something called discord-components, but i cant download it on vscode, was wondering if its maybe outdated?

[hushed galleon]

yeah it got pulled from pypi <t:1639458000:R>, but discord.py and its forks already have native implementations

[graceful basin]

whats an alternative?

[hushed galleon]

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

you'll need to upgrade to dpy 2.0 to use those message components

[graceful basin]

what about slash commands

what can i use for that

cani use ui too

[hushed galleon]

discord.ui is for message components only, application commands are mainly under discord.app_commands
example: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py
see also this summary ive written: #1125984891784400978 message

[frosty beacon]

I want to implement the following feature:

me: !ban
bot: reason
me: gives reason
bot: how many days!
me: days
bot: send dm.
me: y/n
bot: done

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.11)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.11)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.11)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[slate swan]

you're gonna want to use this iirc

[frosty beacon]

ok, but how do I create the conversation session. after invoking !ban cmd

[slate swan]

are you sure that's the way you want to make the command?

You could just make it require those arguments

[frosty beacon]

maybe, we first listen to cmd to initiate and then start a listing session with user

it can be helful if i want to add Ai chatbot

[slate swan]

I have no clue what you mean

[frosty beacon]

lets say I want to make a chatbot.
!start will initiate the session with user. means bot will listen msg send by user in that channel. and reply to him
!stop to terminate the session.

[slate swan]

I would reccomend you instead just add reason and time as an argument

[frosty beacon]

but for this purpose. i cannot use that

[slate swan]

this is very dangerous

anyone can ban anyone if you do that

[frosty beacon]

but its for friend group. not public.

[slate swan]

I see

[frosty beacon]

any clue

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def ban(ctx: commands.Context) -> None:
    await ctx.send("Reason for ban?")
    check = lambda msg: msg.author == ctx.author
    response = await bot.wait_for("message", check=check)
    await ctx.send(f"Reason set as: {response.content}")
    # continue

You'd want to do something like this

I think you can understand the logic

[frosty beacon]

yep, its not quite useful for QnA bot

[slate swan]

you're gonna probably want a listener for that

[frosty beacon]

yes. trying to figure that out

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

@listen(name=None)```
A decorator that registers another function as an external event listener. Basically this allows you to listen to multiple events from different places e.g. such as [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready")

The functions being listened to must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.11)").

Example...

[wispy pasture]

yeah so the perms are a bit messed up here:

yeah so the perms are a bit messed up here:
 overwrites = {
            interaction.guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=False),
            r1: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=True, manage_messages=True),
            interaction.guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, send_messages=True)
        }```

right now when the button to close a ticket is sent the ticket becomes public and everyone can view it, edit the code so only the person who opened the ticket can view it
i want the user who opened the ticket to be able to see the ticker; but not send a message in it

[sharp whale]

class TicketModal(ui.Modal, title="Tickets"):
        inputissue = ui.TextInput(label="Explain your issue",
                                  style=discord.TextStyle.paragraph)
        async def on_submit(self, interaction):
            guild = interaction.guild
            moderator_role = guild.get_role(config.mod_role)
            overwrites = {
                guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
                interaction.user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
                moderator_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
            }
            category = discord.utils.get(guild.categories, id=config.TICKET_CATEGORY)
            channel = await category.create_text_channel(f"ticket-{interaction.user.name}", overwrites=overwrites)
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"Ticket created {channel.mention}")```

wheres the problem

Its sending the modal, but the submit button isnt working

[naive briar]

isnt working doesn't explain the problem

[sharp whale]

._.

im using cogs so i dont get errors

[buoyant quail]

How is it related?

Cogs aren't doing anything with the errors

If you have error handlers - disable them then.

[sharp whale]

If the command is running in a different file, how would i see the error in another file's terminal

[buoyant quail]

what

[sharp whale]

eh

[buoyant quail]

you are running multiple bots?

[sharp whale]

no

cogs

[buoyant quail]

then why would you get error somewhere else

[sharp whale]

ok i removed the modal, still cant create the channel

[sharp whale]

because, the cog is in a different file

[buoyant quail]

it doesn't matters

all errors will be in the place from where you are calling it

[sharp whale]

how would i get the error if i run main.py and access a different file for commands and still get the errors on the terminal

!paste

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/XUYA this is my code

[sharp whale]

everything is working, but the call back of the select menu isn't working

[sharp whale]

eh

i dont get errors when i load the cog

if i Restart the bot or reload the cog, i get error

but, if i run the command i dont get the errors

[naive briar]

You didn't set the callback for it 🤷

Set its callback before adding it to the view, or better yet, just subclass the view and get rid of that mess

[buoyant quail]

You should get errors.
I runned your command and there is an error.

[sharp whale]

what

[naive briar]

What?

[buoyant quail]

It doesn't actually matters.
But would look better, yeah

[buoyant quail]

You have error handlers i guess.

[sharp whale]

yes

[buoyant quail]

Then you should print out the error there

If you don't do something with error inside error handler, it is just dropped

[sharp whale]

i have

print

[buoyant quail]

Show it

[cloud dawn]

Why make an error handler and pass all exceptions

[sharp whale]

except Exception as e:
print(e)

like this

[buoyant quail]

except?

What does it make inside an error handler

Show your full error handler

[sharp whale]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/IALA

main.py

[cloud dawn]

lmao

[buoyant quail]

lmao

[sharp whale]

wha

[cloud dawn]

A for effort tough

[sharp whale]

what

[sharp whale]

what

[buoyant quail]

That try-except will work only when you are killing the process (stopping the bot)

[sharp whale]

oh

I removed the error handler

I still dont get the errors

[buoyant quail]

Do you have an actual error handlers?
Like on_error or something like this

[sharp whale]

no

[naive briar]

Totally not because there's no logging setup

[slate swan]

setup logging

[wheat laurel]

hey? do you know how to make music bot

[sharp whale]

how

You can't just put every command inside a try except.

can u show me an exmple

[naive briar]

What example? The function is as easy to use as a function can be, just call it

[sharp whale]

async def on_error()?

[naive briar]

Before starting the bot

[sharp whale]

buthow

[naive briar]

Call it

[sharp whale]

like, what will it go are the parameters

[naive briar]

They are all optional

And what can go there is explained in the docs

[sharp whale]

how would i make it to print it

[cloud dawn]

log it*

[naive briar]

Print what

If you mean logs, the function already handle all that

[sharp whale]

so i only have to all the function

but how

[naive briar]

How what

[sharp whale]

ehhh

tell me how would i do it

[naive briar]

Do what

[sharp whale]

like,

@bot.event
async def on_error():
    pass```

or how

[cloud dawn]

He told you 5 times already.

[sharp whale]

eh

my brain is so smol sorry

[cloud dawn]

Call the function before starting the bot.

[sharp whale]

await on_error()```

like this?

[cloud dawn]

What does on_error have to do with this?

[sharp whale]

eh

[cloud dawn]

We're talking about logging.

how would i do it

[left mantle]

can someone help me with my discord bot please? i've never seen this error before and i'm stumped

[slender kraken]

Hello, I haven't used this application in a while and I think the version may have updated.. What is a way I can import discord to my bot? I used to use import discord but i get an error.

[naive briar]

What error

[left mantle]

go to the shell and run the command pip install discord.py

[cloud dawn]

Versions don't just get updated you'd need to do that manually. And bu looking at this you're using Repl.it and repl.it tends to delete environments after awhile.

[slender kraken]

ohh

[left mantle]

this one @naive briar

[slender kraken]

thanks

[slate swan]

thats related to twitch package and not discord bots

try asking in #1035199133436354600

[buoyant quail]

And you'd need to send the link to that library
Because i can't find it

[left mantle]

thank you

[left mantle]

https://pypi.org/project/twitchAPI/

the thing is i didn't even import that library

[buoyant quail]

You have import from twitch.api import API
That library has absolutely different imports

[left mantle]

these are the only things ive imported

import os
from discord.ext import commands
from twitch import TwitchClient```

[buoyant quail]

It is still different from what the examples are showing
And your error says that your 4 line is not like that.

[left mantle]

well that's what my line 4 is

[left mantle]

i have no idea how it's outputted that

[buoyant quail]

You didn't save the file mb
Or running some different file

[left mantle]

wait i refreshed it and now it says from twitch import TwitchClient

weird

this is the updated version

[buoyant quail]

The library you sent uses name twitchAPI
There is no just twitch there

[left mantle]

oh

uhm i don't know then

i dont really use twitch libraries

[slate swan]

so how did you come up with this code

[left mantle]

wait

[buoyant quail]

accidentally imported twitch

[left mantle]

i sent the wrong library

https://pypi.org/project/twitch-python/

should be that one

[buoyant quail]

Seems so.
But there is no TwitchClient there.

[sharp whale]

@buoyant quail what error did u get when u ran my code

[buoyant quail]

Missing required argument for selectmenu_callback

[left mantle]

my mate said i need TwitchClient in the code for something can't remember what

[sharp whale]

oh

[left mantle]

do you think it might be that fact that i've installed python-twitch, twitch-python and python-twitch-client?

using pip

[buoyant quail]

I don't know which library and methods you want to use ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[buoyant quail]

twitch-python doesn't have TwitchClient at all

python-twitch-client does have it

[left mantle]

ive just looked at docs and it says from twitch import TwitchClient

that's the library that's i've downloaded

[buoyant quail]

If it is the library that you've downloaded...
You have sent a lot of others

Uninstall all of them and install only needed

[left mantle]

okay done that

i only have python-twitch-client installed now

[buoyant quail]

then it shouldn't give the error

[left mantle]

i didn't get the error but i got a different one

[buoyant quail]

try from twitch.client import TwitchClient mb

Actually it works fine with just from twitch import TwitchClient

It's something by you

Check that it's installed correctly

[naive briar]

They probably have a folder named twitch

[left mantle]

i dont

[vocal snow]

file called twitch.py?

[left mantle]

nope

[left mantle]

i've just uninstalled and reinstalled python-twitch-client and it fixed it, i had an intents error but i know how to fix those

thanks for the help guys

[left mantle]

just ran the command and now i have a new error, i'll send the code and the error

import discord
import os
from webserver import keep_alive
from discord.ext import commands

[naive briar]

Let me guess, undefined name?

Nvm, just saw it

[worthy heart]

how can I get a list of all slash commands and their IDS

I used to be syncing the bot on_ready but then I discovered it is a really bad idea

so how can I get the same output that client.tree.sync() returns?

[naive briar]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.walk_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.walk\_commands

for ... in walk_commands(*, guild=None, type=<AppCommandType.chat_input: 1>)```
An iterator that recursively walks through all application commands and child commands from the tree.

[worthy heart]

I have tried client.tree.walk_commands() but it doesn't return the slash commands ID

there's no id attribute

[naive briar]

It returns an iterator of app_commands.Command objects

!d discord.app_commands.Command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Command

class discord.app_commands.Command(*, name, description, callback, nsfw=False, parent=None, guild_ids=None, auto_locale_strings=True, extras=...)```
A class that implements an application command.

These are usually not created manually, instead they are created using one of the following decorators:

• [`command()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.command "discord.app_commands.command")

• [`Group.command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Group.command "discord.app_commands.Group.command")

• [`CommandTree.command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree.command "discord.app_commands.CommandTree.command")...

[worthy heart]

I know, looping through it, the command doesn't have an id attribute

[left mantle]

went to go do something here's the error

im trying to make my bot send emoji with a message but I am struggling. Can someone give me an example of how to add, lets say a thumbs up( 👍 ), emoji to the messages my bot would send? Please @ me when you reply. Thanks in advance

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html#how-can-i-add-a-reaction-to-a-message

its how to add reaction but logic how to get emoji is the same

[cloud dawn]

message.add_reaction("👍")

[slate swan]

@cyan grove

[cyan grove]

i did see that and tried the unicode version of it

i might have not done it properly

i tried to do something like this

[cyan grove]

this is a pic btw

i wanted to add dog emoji but I did not implement properly

[slate swan]

i think it will be easier and more readable when you use unicode emojis

meaning this

or if its not default emoji use the emoji string emoji = '![python3](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/232720527448342530.webp?size=128 "python3")'

[cyan grove]

so something like

message = "👍"

and then i pass the message ?

[slate swan]

can be

[cloud dawn]

Just use a constants file.

Emoji.thumbs_up is way cleaner

[cyan grove]

programming is something new to me so what is a constants file?

[cloud dawn]

A constants file is a file containing frequently used strings or a set of characters.

[slate swan]

https://github.com/python-discord/bot/blob/main/bot/constants.py

It's good since if you change it in the constants it changes everywhere.

[slate swan]

example snippet of emojis constants

[cyan grove]

thats a good idea

[cyan grove]

that is interesting

lets say i want to implement a dog emoji

i do something like

doggo = "<:dog: <NUMBERS> >"

i dont understand the numbers bit tho

[slate swan]

if its a custom emoji then yes

and the numbers are the emoji id

[cyan grove]

okkkk

i am not planning to use custom emojis

[slate swan]

how to get this "numbers": ```py
The name and ID of a custom emoji can be found with the client by prefixing :custom_emoji: with a backslash. For example, sending the message :python3: with the client will result in .

[cyan grove]

:python3:

huh

[slate swan]

the emoji must exist

[naive briar]

!pithink

[slate swan]

!this

[cyan grove]

!this

oooooo nice

[cloud dawn]

!this

[slate swan]

and when you do this with built in emoji

it will return unicode icon

[cloud dawn]

\👍

[slate swan]

\🐶

[cloud dawn]

It's like people made it to behave that way.

[cyan grove]

doggo = "/:dog:"

something like this would return the unicode version?

[slate swan]

no just copy the emoji from discord and paste it as string

[cyan grove]

makes sensse

[slate swan]

dog = "�"

shouldnt be question mark when you do that in your ide

[cloud dawn]

�

[cyan grove]

alr makes sense

lemme try now

i will be back

[cloud dawn]

!charinfo �

[unkempt canyon]

Character Info

\ufffd : REPLACEMENT CHARACTER - �

you are missing function below it

you didnt create Client instance

did you save your file before running it? you would have gotten a syntax error if there really wasnt a function under the decorator

ah nvm

You have to call Client and set Intents.

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.

i have a problem with my code, does anyone know how to fix this error? TypeError: 'async_generator' object is not scriptable

i'll send the code aswell

import os
import discord
from webserver import keep_alive
from discord.ext import commands
from twitchAPI.twitch import Twitch

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', intents=discord.Intents.all())
twitch_client = Twitch(os.environ.get('TWITCH_CLIENT_ID'), os.environ.get('TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET'))

@client.command()
async def update_followers(ctx, twitch_username):
    user = twitch_client.get_users(logins=[twitch_username])
    if not user['data']:
        await ctx.send(f"{twitch_username} does not have a Twitch channel.")
        return
    user_id = user['data'][0]['id']
    channels = twitch_client.get_streams(user_ids=[user_id])
    if not channels['data']:
        await ctx.send(f"{twitch_username} channel is currently offline.")
        return
    follower_count = channels['data'][0]['viewer_count']
    name = f"{twitch_username} - {follower_count} followers"
    try:
        voice_channel = await client.fetch_channel(104295318813478400)
        await voice_channel.edit(name=name, reason="Updating follower count.")
        await ctx.send(f"Successfully updated follower count for {twitch_username} to {follower_count}.")
    except discord.errors.HTTPException as e:
        await ctx.send("Failed to update follower count. Check if the bot has permissions to edit the channel name.")
        
keep_alive()
token = os.environ['TOKEN']
client.run(token)```

[upbeat ice]

looks like twitch_client.get_users is async

so you should be awaiting that

[left mantle]

i'm getting the error with this snippet of code if not user ['data']:

[upbeat ice]

well yes

read what I said 😛

[buoyant quail]

also i wonder why you expect getting one user from function get_user__s__

also it returns a class, not a dictionary (and that class has no __getitem__ as i see)

[left mantle]

because there's no attribute get_user

so i thought that would've worked

[left mantle]

TypeError: object async_generator can't be used in 'await' expression

[upbeat ice]

show your code

[upbeat ice]

youll probably have to address this

[finite geyser]

[buoyant quail]

I am not sure if async generators can be just awaited

You need to use an async for for them

[upbeat ice]

or use the first() helper

[buoyant quail]

Or the thing that is in the first example

Yeah

https://pytwitchapi.readthedocs.io/en/stable/#twitchapi

[slate swan]

You do use async for

[upbeat ice]

he also needs to be using await for Twitch()

[buoyant quail]

interesting that he got no errors about that one

ahh, tf

understood

https://github.com/Teekeks/pyTwitchAPI/blob/master/twitchAPI/twitch.py#L271-L275

[unkempt canyon]

twitchAPI/twitch.py lines 271 to 275

def __await__(self):
    if self._authenticate_app:
        t = asyncio.create_task(self.authenticate_app(self._target_app_scope if self._target_app_scope is not None else []))
        yield from t
    return self```

[upbeat ice]

well thats interesting

[left mantle]

would this be correct? user = async for twitch_client.get_users(logins=[twitch_username])

[buoyant quail]

Of course not

[left mantle]

oh

[upbeat ice]

is there a reason why you dont want to use the first() helper function?

[buoyant quail]

async for is the same loop as for

[buoyant quail]

||Not reading the docs and doing random stuff||

[left mantle]

i've just awaited it

[left mantle]

because i don't know how to use it

[upbeat ice]

looks as simple as user = await first(twitch_client.get_users(logins=[twitch_username]))

[buoyant quail]

It's the first example in the docs. And it does exactly what you want to do here.

[left mantle]

ah okay

[buoyant quail]

Gets one user by name and prints id

[upbeat ice]

light mode 😮

[slate swan]

can you add hypertext in embed title? like not url kwarg but text with hypertext

[upbeat ice]

i always just use the url kwarg but let me try

[slate swan]

the problem with that is then whole title will be link annotation

i just want part of it

[buoyant quail]

I believe no

[slate swan]

and cant really test it rn

[upbeat ice]

ill try after my meeting

[slate swan]

nw

[glad cradle]

no

[formal basin]

@client.listen()
async def on_member_update(before, after):
   
     if after.id == client.user.id:

            print(f"1bad word detected logs: {after.guild.id}")
       ``` if someone joins it changes their name to bad word name even though its not a bad word

[buoyant quail]

and what contains_profanity and replaceDoubleCharacters are?

[pure crag]

would anyone like to help work on a brand new Discord API wrapper?

[sick birch]

those are generally considered difficult

[pure crag]

yes

its not discouraging me though. its happening regardless

[sick birch]

Nice! I've built a few but never finished. They are a lot of fun. If you need help you can ask in #965291516031549500

[devout drum]

getting errors for these how do i fix it

[buoyant quail]

And what's the error?

[slate swan]

probably not installed?

[devout drum]

errors are fixed

my commands dont work now tho

i can send the code

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ODLA

[proper thicket]

Is this your code

[slate swan]

"doesn't work" isn't too descriptive, are you getting any errors? is your bot responding to the command at all?

[devout drum]

no errors

bot is not responding

[devout drum]

i fixed it

it was the bot token

[slate swan]

yo so im having a problem when i go to type my command nothing happens but it doesnt look like there is any problems with my bot when i put it up

this is all i see i dont know if it means anything

[devout drum]

try resetting your token

[slate swan]

alr thanks

[devout drum]

did it work?

[slate swan]

nope

[devout drum]

damn

[naive briar]

[devout drum]

what r u usin the bot for, im only in this code for discord bots personally mines for a shop

[slate swan]

verifying in my discord

[finite geyser]

pip install discord

use venv

[turbid condor]

It's discord.py

discord is a wrapper for discord.py

!pip discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord v2.3.1

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

[finite geyser]

both works fine

[sick birch]

no it's just a mirror

presumably to prevent typosquatting

[devout drum]

i fixed it already

[finite geyser]

good

[swift siren]

i’ve installed it n i keep getting the same error

[turbid condor]

do pip install discord.py[voice]

[swift siren]

requirement already satisfied

i already had it installed

[glad cradle]

do you have multiple python versions installed in your pc?

if you're on windows you can do

py -3.10 -m pip install -U discord.py[voice]

you can replace the 3.10 with the python version that you're using

[glad cradle]

what

[devout drum]

/\

i did pip install discord.py and pip install discord-py-slash-command

[slate swan]

You know discord.py Has slash commands built in already

You dont need external module

in the source code

it provides an instance already

[frosty beacon]

I am unable to find it? can u link it to me??

where the instance is get created??

[naive briar]

What

[slate swan]

why would you need to know

[buoyant quail]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/state.py#L1619-L1620

[unkempt canyon]

discord/state.py lines 1619 to 1620

def create_message(self, *, channel: MessageableChannel, data: MessagePayload) -> Message:
    return Message(state=self, channel=channel, data=data)```

[slate swan]

if you are trying to create message object yourself there are methods for this

!d discord.abc.Messageable.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.fetch\_message

await fetch_message(id, /)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Retrieves a single [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") from the destination.

[buoyant quail]

And not only here
But i don't see a reason to send them all until we don't know what are you doing

[digital magnet]

Yo @rancid grail
can you guys update discord library?
so we can send ephemeral messages by using that library?

[rancid grail]

Wdym by "so we can send ephemeral messages"? If you mean "we" as users doesn't make much sense since that's in discord's hands whether or not they update the client to make that possible. If you mean for @unkempt canyon, @novel apex or @lament depot; I suppose you can ask in #community-meta or one of the dev channels

[digital magnet]

i meant my discord bot by "we"

[buoyant quail]

idk if that's what you mean, but you can send ephemerals in discord.py

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

await send_message(content=None, *, embed=..., embeds=..., file=..., files=..., view=..., tts=False, ephemeral=False, allowed_mentions=..., suppress_embeds=False, silent=False, delete_after=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[buoyant quail]

ephemeral arg

[gloomy hound]

Do you think this is a good structure for a command based bot ?

everythink is made with classes except main.py which contains 4 lines

basically it's a .run with the token loader

btw I'm using pycord

[digital magnet]

wait we can???

[frosty beacon]

I want to modify it a bit

[digital magnet]

i think i saw you somewhere

[frosty beacon]

whrer??

[digital magnet]

idk

but i do think i saw you somewhere

[frosty beacon]

k

[slate swan]

What exactly you want to do maybe there is a solution already

[frosty beacon]

How want to know, @bor.event works, like for interaction , message etc where the instance of objects gets created

[buoyant quail]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/state.py#L619-L620
dispatch goes into events and listeners later

[unkempt canyon]

discord/state.py lines 619 to 620

message = Message(channel=channel, data=data, state=self)  # type: ignore
self.dispatch('message', message)```

[digital magnet]

is it like this

await ctx.send("This is an ephemeral message!", ephemeral=True)```

[frosty beacon]

alr i will take a look at it

[buoyant quail]

Ephemerals exist only in interaction responses

[digital magnet]

can i use it on embed message reaction?

for example assume my bot send a embed message with 2 reaction

if 1st reaction is press then a random Ephemeral message will be send to that user

if 2nd is press then ||NOTHING WILL HAPPEN LOL||

[buoyant quail]

Reaction is not an interaction

With buttons you can

[shrewd apex]

this embed file structure reminds of css modules 🗿

[gloomy hound]

is it bad ?

[shrewd apex]

why seperate files for embeds

[gloomy hound]

idk

[shrewd apex]

is one file not enough for all the embeds

[buoyant quail]

Super speed optimization

[gloomy hound]

why not

[shrewd apex]

like one embeds.py

[digital magnet]

ok means i can't modify my bot

[gloomy hound]

it becomes a mess cuz there will be about 40 embed classes

so

40 x 30 lines

it's a lot

[shrewd apex]

why do u need 40 embed classes why u need sn embed class if first place

[buoyant quail]

30 lines for one embed???

[digital magnet]

Ultimate speed optimzation

[shrewd apex]

what does it fo for the embed

[gloomy hound]

idk actually it's about 10

[digital magnet]

GENIUS

[shrewd apex]

so why not just a single embed class with static methods which returns embed instances

[gloomy hound]

wdym

[glad cradle]

the best solution for embeds is to store them as dicts

[gloomy hound]

but

actually the behavior is stored into the embed

like I have chatgpt embed

[shrewd apex]

json

[digital magnet]

Storing embeds as dictionaries is a common practice

[gloomy hound]

And all the requests, stuff is in the embed class

[glad cradle]

ah

[digital magnet]

also felixable

[shrewd apex]

weird but ok then ig

[glad cradle]

Well then it's not just an embed if it handle some other logic

[gloomy hound]

And should cogs be only in one class ?

[shrewd apex]

i like having logic and ui seperated

[glad cradle]

me too

[shrewd apex]

that wasn't my point but ok

[digital magnet]

guys if i wrote a 400 lines of discord bot , am i pro discord maker then?

[glad cradle]

mh? you can have more than a cog in a file

[gloomy hound]

ik

[shrewd apex]

long way off buddy

[digital magnet]

https://tenor.com/view/eren-yeager-eren-eren-jaeger-yeager-my-honest-reaction-gif-26067096

[glad cradle]

when I didn't know what cogs and extensions were I wrote a bot of 800 lines

with blocking code as well

it was my dark era

[shrewd apex]

sight what to do standards have risen now we can no longer impress ppl with hello world

[shrewd apex]

everyone's been through it

[digital magnet]

[buoyant quail]

390 empty newlines

[glad cradle]

😏

[digital magnet]

i actually wrote 400 lines no joke

[buoyant quail]

i believe

[digital magnet]

399*

[buoyant quail]

it's not a lot

[digital magnet]

*pain in my heart just striked me

[digital magnet]

am i the unique one that you guys left to die but i didn't die??

bye ( everyone dead rn )

[slate swan]

We all had one of those I think

[left mantle]

hello, i'm getting the error below but i'm using the helix api not the kraken api, how do i fix it? here's the code and error:

client = TwitchClient(
    client_id = os.environ['TWITCH_CLIENT_ID'], 
    oauth_token = os.environ['TWITCH_OAUTH_TOKEN'])
users = client.users.translate_usernames_to_ids(['graveyardztv', 'coinzplayz'])
for user in users:
     print('{}: {}'.format(user.name, user.id))

[naive briar]

I don't think this is Discord bot related, I'd recommend posting your question in #1035199133436354600 instead

[left mantle]

it is, i'm building the base of a discord bot. i want it to return the follower amount of a twitch user then use that integer to edit a voice channel name, eg: Twitch Followers: 72,272

i'll get there eventually i just want to make sure that it actually returns the follow amount before i start that

i'll post it in python-help in hopes for help

[naive briar]

That error isn't related to Discord bots

[left mantle]

okay, sorry

[slate swan]

hi

i need help for my script it say that

how do i turn into used

[naive briar]

Use it 🤷

[slate swan]

how

[naive briar]

Use it, I said it

If you defined something and leave it unused, it's kinda pointless

[slate swan]

i was using this script before it was perfect wat appen

i need to use it on the script ?

Shouldn't that be import request?

You misspelled it

[cloud dawn]

@sharp whale Does moderator_role have an .id attribute? It's trying to get all .id's from all permission targets.

[finite salmon]

basically it won't "run in the background" when u use it but instead it'll block the entire process of the bot until it finishes

[finite salmon]

fair

[sharp whale]

the moderator role is itself a snowflake

Mr. Turtle typing

how about you do ```py

!e

print(hasattr(None, "id"))

@naive briar :white_check_mark: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

False

[cloud dawn]

Something is wrong with the moderation_role

[sharp whale]

moderator_role = guild.get_role(config.mod_role)```

this is the moderator_role

[slate swan]

looks like it returns None

[cloud dawn]

What is config.mod_role?

[sharp whale]

role id

and it pings it when i do <@&id>

[slate swan]

if get_role returns None you might thing of using the fetch_role

[cloud dawn]

Just create a snowflake then.

[slate swan]

or fetch_roles since fetch_role doesnt exist

[cloud dawn]

discord.Object(config.mod_role)

[cloud dawn]

Well create channel only needs the id so no need to make an unnecessary API call.

[slate swan]

ah so he doesnt need the Role object

[cloud dawn]

Just the .id attr

[slate swan]

then why use get_role using id just to access id attr

[cloud dawn]

Dunno

Also @sharp whale if a traceback is unclear use the discord.py github to know what the code does and what it's pointing to. https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/guild.py#L1215-L1246

Well you didn't understand the traceback most likely, wich I understand but if you look up the line inside the source you can see what it does and where the issue might be.

[sharp whale]

oh

[cloud dawn]

Meaning you only needed to create a snowflake, uses less resources.

[sharp whale]

so i dont have to get the role?

only snowflake?

[cloud dawn]

No since the overwrites only need the id nothing else.

[sharp whale]

overwrites ={
                    guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
                    interaction.user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
                    config.mod_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
                }```

[cloud dawn]

That's not what I meant.

[sharp whale]

uhh

[cloud dawn]

You need the .id attr since it will use target.id

[sharp whale]

how

the role has .id attr

[cloud dawn]

You just told me mod_role is just the id?

[sharp whale]

yes

[cloud dawn]

Is mod_role an int or a snowflake?

[sharp whale]

thats why i used get_role()

[sharp whale]

int

[cloud dawn]

Okay look lemme visualize

[sharp whale]

int and snowflake same things right?

[cloud dawn]

def _create_channel(
    self,
    name: str,
    channel_type: ChannelType,
    overwrites: Mapping[Union[Role, Member], PermissionOverwrite] = MISSING,
    category: Optional[Snowflake] = None,
    **options: Any,
) -> Coroutine[Any, Any, GuildChannelPayload]:
    if overwrites is MISSING:
        overwrites = {}
    elif not isinstance(overwrites, Mapping):
        raise TypeError('overwrites parameter expects a dict.')

    perms = []
    for target, perm in overwrites.items():
        if not isinstance(perm, PermissionOverwrite):
            raise TypeError(f'Expected PermissionOverwrite received {perm.__class__.__name__}')

        allow, deny = perm.pair()
        payload = {'allow': allow.value, 'deny': deny.value, 'id': target.id}

        if isinstance(target, Role):
            payload['type'] = abc._Overwrites.ROLE
        else:
            payload['type'] = abc._Overwrites.MEMBER

        perms.append(payload)

    parent_id = category.id if category else None
    return self._state.http.create_channel(
        self.id, channel_type.value, name=name, parent_id=parent_id, permission_overwrites=perms, **options
    )
``` this is the create role function

Look at this line for target, perm in overwrites.items():

target will be all the key values of the overwrites dictionary.

[sharp whale]

what

[cloud dawn]

Then it will go to payload = {'allow': allow.value, 'deny': deny.value, 'id': target.id}

Where target is all the different key values inside the overwrites. And it will try to get the attr id.

[sharp whale]

uhhh

[cloud dawn]

So it will do this everytime ```
guild.default_role.id
interaction.user.id
config.mod_role.id

Is this possible?

[sharp whale]

no
