[mighty pilot]

Funny thing, I actually have narcolepsy

I literally get home and pass out

[final iron]

Only reason I know about narcolespy is because of that series

The mysterious benedict society or smth

[mighty pilot]

But I enjoy doing some coding projects so I make time during the evening on my weekends. My little escape from commercial plumbing lmfao

[potent mulch]

Hi, there's a free hosting website?

(where can i add the code i made and run on a public/private server)

[turbid condor]

Free hosting isn't good

Since you are using shared ips

So if it gets banned all the bots stop working

[gray junco]

Can someone help please

[slate swan]

I'm trying to get before.channel, but it gives out a NoneType, although everything is fine with after.channel. How to fix it?

[slate swan]

library?

[naive briar]

!traceback

[unkempt canyon]

Traceback

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.
While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "my_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    add_three("6")
  File "my_file.py", line 2, in add_three
    a = num + 3
        ~~~~^~~
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

If the traceback is long, use our pastebin.

[gray junco]

I know but the error is confusing

[gray junco]

It isnt adding app_commands

[naive briar]

I can't see the traceback, so I can't tell what's wrong 🤷

[meager rock]

Update discord.py, reinstall if needed

[turbid condor]

Seems like u are using pycord

[slate swan]

?

[turbid condor]

But you are trying to app_commands that exist in discord.py

[turbid condor]

Seems like the before channel is returning none try to print what it returns (like name)

[gray junco]

Yea cause im beginner

[turbid condor]

Welp then use the modules for pycord

Not discord.py

I think in pycord it is slash_commmands

Tho not sure u should check the docs

[slate swan]

before.channel is None

Depending on the event it makes sense so yeah

[smoky bane]

hi everyone I want to create a python bot any useful resources to get started ???

[shrewd apex]

https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/
has some of the basics so far

#discord-bots message follow this for slash commands

[upbeat mason]

@client.command()
async def userinfo(ctx, *, member: discord.Member = None):
    if member is None:
        member = ctx.author

    embed = discord.Embed(title="User Info", color=discord.Color.blue())

    embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar)
    embed.add_field(name="Username", value=member.name, inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="ID", value=member.id, inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Status", value=member.status, inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=member.joined_at.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"), inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Account Created", value=member.created_at.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"), inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name="Top Role", value=member.top_role.mention, inline=True)

    # Send the user information as an embed
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

the status always shows as offline, any clue?

[turbid condor]

You have presence intent enabled?

[turbid condor]

.

[upbeat mason]

i think so one sec

[turbid condor]

It's a privileged intent so check dev portal too

[upbeat mason]

@turbid condor

its enabled in dev portal

[naive briar]

!d discord.Member.status

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.status

property status```
The member’s overall status. If the value is unknown, then it will be a [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str) instead.

[upbeat mason]

wait

its working for dnd and online, not for idle

[turbid condor]

Hmm weird

Does it throw any error in terminal?

[upbeat mason]

lemme see

nope

[turbid condor]

Try printing the status in your terminal

Tho it's pretty weird that it doesn't show idle

[upbeat mason]

wait

i've figured it out i think, it isnt idle its me which is showing offline for some reason

why? idk

[turbid condor]

Welp if your status is invisible then it will show offline

[upbeat mason]

yeah but it isnt

[turbid condor]

Welp try using get_user or fetch_user method to get the status

Tho I'm not sure what causing that issue

But you can try the above two methods

To do that

[upbeat mason]

i guess i can try that

i give up

[left dew]

how can i run 2 tasks.loops at the same time without getting this error:

RuntimeError: Task is already launched and is not completed.```

[mighty pilot]

Asyncio.gather()

[lyric sigil]

oh

I have this error when i click a button in my message :

    await interaction.response.send_message("You clicked the button!") # Send a message when the button is clicked
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'Button' object has no attribute 'response'

here is the code :

class MyView(discord.ui.View): # Create a class called MyView that subclasses discord.ui.View
    @discord.ui.button(label="Click me!", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, emoji="😎") # Create a button with the label "😎 Click me!" with color Blurple
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message("You clicked the button!") # Send a message when the button is clicked

only the command is working well

[naive briar]

Swap the position of the button and interaction parameter

In discord.py, interaction always come before the item in UI callbacks

[lyric sigil]

Its working thanks !

[naive briar]

I don't think that's possible due to how it's implemented

[mighty pilot]

Oh gather won't do it?

[naive briar]

No

[buoyant quail]

What's the problem of just starting them like

task1.start()
task2.start()

That's the same as gathering

And the error is because he is trying to run the same task

[naive briar]

I think they were asking how to run the same task twice 🤷

[buoyant quail]

task1 = tasks.loop(...)(function)
task2 = tasks.loop(...)(function)

can work

very weird to run it twice though

[mighty pilot]

Oh I thought he was trying to run 2 tasks concurrently

[slate swan]

task2 = task1?

[buoyant quail]

That will give "task is already launched" i am sure

[eager mural]

[mighty pilot]

Does it show any errors

[unkempt canyon]

Discord Message Content Intent

The Discord gateway only dispatches events you subscribe to, which you can configure by using "intents."

The message content intent is what determines if an app will receive the actual content of newly created messages. Without this intent, discord.py won't be able to detect prefix commands, so prefix commands won't respond.

Privileged intents, such as message content, have to be explicitly enabled from the Discord Developer Portal in addition to being enabled in the code:

intents = discord.Intents.default() # create a default Intents instance
intents.message_content = True # enable message content intents

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents) # actually pass it into the constructor

For more information on intents, see /tag intents. If prefix commands are still not working, see /tag on-message-event.

[eager mural]

?

[buoyant quail]

You don't have message content intent

Message commands can't work without it

[eager mural]

aa

[naive briar]

[buoyant quail]

You should also get a warning about it

[naive briar]

Kinda sus if you ask me

[buoyant quail]

the whole start_bot looks sus

[mighty pilot]

Running multiple bots with the same code

[slate swan]

bot=False was a method to run selfbot back in the days wasnt it

[buoyant quail]

yea

[mighty pilot]

This is definitely old selfbot code that I don't think will work anymore lol

[buoyant quail]

Looks more like some AI code

he deleted the comments from the code

[slate swan]

It wont but still selfbot is selfbot

[lyric sigil]

I have this error when trying to repress my button :

AttributeError: 'Button' object attribute 'disabled' is read-only

class MyView3(discord.ui.View): # Create a class called MyView that subclasses discord.ui.View
    @discord.ui.button(label="Click me to EXPRESS YOUR RAGE", style=discord.ButtonStyle.danger) # Create a button with the label "😎 Click me!" with color Blurple
    async def button_callback(self , interaction , button):
        Button.label = "No more pressing!" # change the button's label to something else
        Button.disabled = True # set button.disabled to True to disable the button
        await interaction.response.send_message("**I am going to implode.**") # Send a message when the button is clicked

Here is the code

[mighty pilot]

Because you disabled the button

[naive briar]

Did you mean button.disabled, not Button.disabled?

[lyric sigil]

x) i changed it cuz it wasn't placed after async def so it was giving me error

so i was thinking i missed a caps

[mighty pilot]

No it needs to be lowercase

You also need to edit the original message with self to implement those changes

Ok where did u learn this

this is NOTHING like discord.py

[buoyant quail]

Mixing discord.py with it's fork

[nova vessel]

I am pretty rookie at Python but I like to be ambitious

What am I doing wrong/what is causing this error?

[buoyant quail]

First of all discord.py and interactions shouldn't be used together. Choose one and use it

[naive briar]

AttributeError: module 'discord.ext.commands' has no attribute 'event'
🫠

[nova vessel]

Okay, I think I need to use interactions then as I am using slash commands and options within them.

[buoyant quail]

discord.py has slash commands :/
but you can use what you want

[naive briar]

discord.py already support slash commands since version 2.0

[nova vessel]

I never knew that.

🤣

[buoyant quail]

About error - since you are subclassing the bot, you don't need event at all. on_ready is method of Bot class, just override it

[nova vessel]

Okay, is it worth even using a class for the bot?

I am trying to get into the practice of always using them but I am getting the feeling that it won't prove useful for this case

[buoyant quail]

It's ok, but don't put commands there.

It's strange to make commands methods of the bot

[nova vessel]

Don't put them inside of the class?

[buoyant quail]

ye

[nova vessel]

Okay

What would I be putting in the class? Just the slash commands and then when defying the functions, I do it outside of the class?

[buoyant quail]

Any extra functionality you'd add there or override. Like adding custom method to do bot.my_cool_method() or variable.
Or overriding methods like on_ready, on_message and so on

[nova vessel]

Okay

Thank you

[gray junco]

How to remove nix environment

It ruines my code

[nova vessel]

Is there a singular library I can use for my code? As in can I just use interactions or just use discord.py

[buoyant quail]

Any of them. From these two i'd choose discord.py.

[nova vessel]

Okay, thank you.

[nova vessel]

How'd I add in the slash command using discord.py?

Is it the same as interactions?

[buoyant quail]

nope

Try it and see

[tepid dagger]

how do you set an embed's thumbnail to be the avatar of a user

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed.set_thumbnail

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_thumbnail

set_thumbnail(*, url)```
Sets the thumbnail for the embed content.

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

Changed in version 1.4: Passing `None` removes the thumbnail.

[slate swan]

!d discord.User.avatar

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.avatar

property avatar```
Returns an [`Asset`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Asset) for the avatar the user has.

If the user has not uploaded a global avatar, `None` is returned. If you want the avatar that a user has displayed, consider [`display_avatar`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User.display_avatar).

Guys

How to do options like thise on discord bot

Slash comamnd

[golden portal]

autocomplete

!d discord.app_commands.autocomplete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.autocomplete

@discord.app_commands.autocomplete(**parameters)```
Associates the given parameters with the given autocomplete callback.

Autocomplete is only supported on types that have [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str), [`int`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int), or [`float`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float) values.

[`Checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check) are supported, however they must be attached to the autocomplete callback in order to work. Checks attached to the command are ignored when invoking the autocomplete callback.

For more information, see the [`Command.autocomplete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Command.autocomplete) documentation.

Warning

The choices returned from this coroutine are suggestions. The user may ignore them and input their own value...

[golden portal]

could also be Choices, hard to tell from that

[gray junco]

I will try both ty for telling me

[golden portal]

sure, just know that autocomplete is dynamic, choices is static, so depends on your usecase

[brazen skiff]

What is the best module to make a discord bot in python which supports slash commands? And also pls link me any resources for that module so I can start working with it.

Also, I have a discord bot working with discord.py module. But it doesn't supprt slash commands because it was made 3 years ago. Is there any easy to make it use slash commands?

[meager rock]

discord.py supports slash commands but you can use disnake ( which is a discord.py fork ) for an easier interface

if you want completely new environment then hikari with hikari lightbulb is a nice choice as well

https://pypi.org/project/disnake
https://pypi.org/project/hikari
https://pypi.org/project/hikari-lightbulb

[normal lava]

I made a bot having Instagram features but it's not growing 😔

[brazen skiff]

Will disnake be easier to convert my existing bot to work with slash commands?

[turbid condor]

It's all about your preference

Choose whatever u feel comfortable with

[golden portal]

discord.py has a hybrid_command system that integrates slash commands behind the scenes, so you could use that if you already have a working bot

[turbid condor]

That's make them both a prefix and slash

So it's depending on the use case

What if he wants only slash commands?

[golden portal]

Figured I would give another option, and tbh it's relatively easy to stop prefix with minimal effort

[turbid condor]

And care to tell how?

Just don't say disable message_content

[golden portal]

override on_message, don't use process_commands

[turbid condor]

It's not 100% guaranteed that it would stop it

Sometimes commands even work without processing in on_message event

[buoyant quail]

I believe discord.py has process commands only in on_message

[turbid condor]

Yeah but sometimes it doesn't need to be used

[buoyant quail]

What else processes them then?

[mighty pilot]

I haven't used webhooks yet but I'd like to. Is the typical use to create a webhook every time you want to send a message with it? Or check if there's one for that channel before creating one? Or what

[golden portal]

I don't know what you mean, the bot.process_commands is called in bot.on_message, so using bot.event for on_message will effectively remove it

[golden portal]

The latter

It should be a webhook that the bot can use before creating

[turbid condor]

I'm just saying sometimes it isn't even needed and commands are working

Tho idk the reason for this happening

[golden portal]

it is required for it to work, that's literally where command processing came from

[meager rock]

disnake works with old discord.py ( when 2.0 was in development) codebase for most of the part

[golden portal]

I feel like you're confused between listeners and events

[turbid condor]

Nope not confused I'm pretty sure about it

[mighty pilot]

So check for webhook, if there's not one for this channel create one and use it, else edit the existing and send message?

[turbid condor]

Cuz happened with me

Yeah but when expanded that code then i needed to process em

[buoyant quail]

You'd need provide a working code to prove that
Prefix commands won't work without it

[golden portal]

Yes, tho, why edit the webhook? For what

[mighty pilot]

Editing the webhook to match a user name and avatar. So multiple users can use the same webhook

[golden portal]

Perhaps random bot.process_commands somewhere you had?

[golden portal]

webhook.send have them, no need to edit the webhook itself

!d discord.Webhook.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Webhook.send

await send(content=..., *, username=..., avatar_url=..., tts=False, ephemeral=False, file=..., files=..., embed=..., embeds=..., allowed_mentions=..., view=..., thread=..., ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message using the webhook.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File) object.

If the `embed` parameter is provided, it must be of type [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed) and it must be a rich embed type. You cannot mix the `embed` parameter with the `embeds` parameter, which must be a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list) of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed) objects to send.

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

[mighty pilot]

Oh well that makes it easier ig

Thanks

discord.on_member_join(member)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member) joins a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild).

This requires [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.members) to be enabled.

[buoyant quail]

Store the joined members in the way you want in that event

[slate swan]

You won't find docs for some random code

[final iron]

!d discord.Member.ban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.ban

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

Bans this member. Equivalent to [`Guild.ban()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.ban).

Is there any working code for a music bot with slash commands using disnake?

[shrewd apex]

probably not why not code it yourself

[graceful otter]

Olá desenvovedores

↑^^↑

[brazen skiff]

actually I have one which was working fine with discord.py, I have trouble changing it to disnake

[graceful otter]

Olá

[turbid condor]

Why change it to disnake if it was working on discord.py

[brazen skiff]

changing it to slash commands

[turbid condor]

You can make that in dpy too

Shouldn't be that hard

[glad cradle]

cause disnake is better, facts

[turbid condor]

Tbh i don't see the reason to change your entire to disnake

[glad cradle]

yeah that's true

[turbid condor]

And i won't say any lib is better over the other

Since it's all about preference

[glad cradle]

mh but some things are implemented better

[mighty pilot]

Anybody familiar with regex?

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    msg = message.content.split()
    lgth = len(msg)
    rand = random.sample(msg, lgth)
    rand = str(rand)
    
    content = str(rand).replace("[","").replace("]","")
    content = re.sub(r"(?s:'(.*)')\Z", r'\1', content)```

Trying to jumble someone's message and send it, but I need to remove the apostrophe before and after every word but not the ones inside the word. This works if a single word is sent but if there's multiples, it only removes the first and last one and idk how to get where I'm trying to go at this point

[buoyant quail]

Show example text and result

[mighty pilot]

Example text
example' 'text

Would it work if I iterate over each word?

[buoyant quail]

Mm yeah

just strip("'") it seems

[mighty pilot]

Well if I use an apostrophe in a word such as that's then it goes in as "that\'s" so could I strip() something that doesn't exist if that's not the case?

Because that's why I was using regex, it mixes ' and " based on the input

[buoyant quail]

strip will do nothing if it doesn't find the character you gave it

[mighty pilot]

And will it strip the ones in the middle of the words

[buoyant quail]

no

[mighty pilot]

Then I'll use that lol thanks

Regex is a nightmare

[gray junco]

Pls help guys the pycord server doesnt help me

[quick brook]

Lemme see your help post on the Pycord server lol

[gray junco]

I asked 2 questions and waited alot no response

[quick brook]

Dude they are volunteers like me. Give them time

[slate swan]

So you use py-cord?

Can you run this script and show what it returns? print(__import__("discord").__copyright__)

[hushed galleon]

pycord should have an abc module so it looks like a broken install; perhaps you installed both discord.py and py-cord and then uninstalled discord.py?

that did reproduce the error for me actually ```py

pip install discord.py py-cord
pip uninstall discord.py
py -c "from discord.commands import option"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "\site-packages\discord\commands_init_.py", line 26, in <module>
from .context import *
File "\site-packages\discord\commands\context.py", line 29, in <module>
import discord.abc
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord.abc'```

so er, uninstall any other discord package you might have then reinstall py-cord

[slate swan]

Anyone knows how I can fix this??

[wicked atlas]

your bot token is probably not the name of an environment variable

[slate swan]

Sorry meaning?

[wicked atlas]

have you set an enviroment variable with your token in it?

[slate swan]

Ohh you mean a secret ?

[wicked atlas]

yeah whatever replit calls it

[slate swan]

I forgot to 😂

Thanks for reminding me lmaoo

[glad cradle]

regenerate your token now @slate swan

[slate swan]

I did it already lol

I did it before I send this

Do I replace ‘BOT_TOKEN’ with the token or

Do I remove the [ aswell

[wicked atlas]

no, you create an enviroment variabled named "BOT_TOKEN" and set it's value to the token

[slate swan]

I did v

[wicked atlas]

the point of it is to not include your token in the code

[slate swan]

I mean for this command

[slate swan]

Ohh really ?

[wicked atlas]

yeah

[slate swan]

So in the value I put token?

[wicked atlas]

you put your token, yes

[slate swan]

Now I got this error

[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]

I don’t get the last step

Where it says you need to set the intents…

[wicked atlas]

what about it?

ah

[slate swan]

Everything

[wicked atlas]

you should be able to just use the intents object it creates there as an example, there are a few other intents that are disabled by default that you can enable if you need them

[slate swan]

I mean the code

[wicked atlas]

intents basically tell discord what events to send to your bot

[slate swan]

I already enabled the intents

[wicked atlas]

yes, but you need to enable them in your code like shown in that embed

[woven dew]

just copy code from here

[wicked atlas]

embed code formatting is a little wack it looks like so

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)

[slate swan]

I’m sorry I’m just new to this,

I have no clue ?

This is the code itself

[wicked atlas]

just create you intents variable somewhere before the bot variable is created

from discord import Intents
intents = Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

then pass that variable into the definiton for your bot (line 16)

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

[slate swan]

Can you speak in a way a dumba** would understand 💀

[wicked atlas]

ooga booga copy paste first code before line 16 then on whatever line that is now put , intents=intents inside the parenthesis like shown in the second codeblock

[slate swan]

Perhaps like this?

[wicked atlas]

halfway there

[woven dew]

put , intents=intents into parens on line 19

[dusk dagger]

holy chatGPT

[slate swan]

Nope, i stole the source from a. Guy

[dusk dagger]

who writes comments like that

[slate swan]

No idea, ain’t my source

I think it’s a free source

It just guides you

[slate swan]

So do I replace it ? Or add it

[woven dew]

add

[wicked atlas]

the guy got it from chat gpt

[slate swan]

😂

[slate swan]

Can you answer this question for me?

Would it be like this?

[woven dew]

🥳

why are you writing discord bot if you have no idea how to write even simple code?

[wicked atlas]

ngl that's like the first thing I did with programming

except it was javascript 💀

[woven dew]

you have some shitty code at line 49

[slate swan]

Wait wrong error

[woven dew]

show your code

[slate swan]

I fixed it but I also got this

[slate swan]

Lmaoo

[woven dew]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

Ohh

[woven dew]

you have to save your code, u know?

this is not interesting

also, line 45 wont work

[slate swan]

Why is that ? And how would I fix it

[woven dew]

dont copy code from random sources, learn docs and make it yourself

[slate swan]

Well okay, but how would I fix the error ?

[woven dew]

i would rewrite this code completely

[final iron]

Pretty clear

You’re missing the arg intents

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, *, help_command=<default-help-command>, tree_cls=<class 'discord.app_commands.tree.CommandTree'>, description=None, intents, **options)```
Represents a Discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin) to provide the functionality to manage commands.

Unlike [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client), this class does not require manually setting a [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree) and is automatically set upon instantiating the class.

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

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

Yea one thing, (I’m a dumbass and this is absolutely not my code)

So I have no idea what to do here

[final iron]

discord.py isn’t recommended to beginners

[slate swan]

I see

[slate swan]

But you just mind helping me for this bit? Since it looks like your an experienced programmer?

[final iron]

I’ve already given you the solution

Basic OOP

[slate swan]

Where would I put this command ?

[final iron]

Nowhere, it’s not a command

You also already have an instance of commands.Bot

You just need to pass the intents arg

This is extremely simple

[slate swan]

Sorry can you just put it for me ? I’m really clueless and it’s 2 am trying to figure this out

[final iron]

I don’t spoon feed

[slate swan]

Okay then 😂

[slate swan]

Traceback (most recent call last):

[hallow kernel]

Yep my solution will work

[slate swan]

Since I’m doing discord.py

@bot.loop(seconds=1)
async def loop_1():
    await send_custom_message()

@bot.event
async def on_ready(ctx):
    loop_1.start()
    ...

This would be it?

How would I use the achryonisis main function and pass it?

[hallow kernel]

@bot.loop(seconds=530)
async def send_custom_message():
    ...
    # same code, but change 
    while not bot.is_closed():

@bot.event
async def on_ready(ctx):

[slate swan]

Like this?

Got this error lol

[hallow kernel]

Remove line 47
Add colon (:) to the end of line 39
Add @bot.loop(seconds=530) after line 34

[hallow kernel]

Sorry
Replace

@bot.loop(seconds=530) 

With

@tasks.loop(seconds=530)

And add to start of the file

from discord.ext import tasks

[slate swan]

You mean in the beginning like first line

I add From discord.ext import tasks

[hallow kernel]

Doesn't matter, where your imports are

first letter in "from" small

[hallow kernel]

Here you can read documentation on those things

[slate swan]

So I change from discord.txt to that?

[slate swan]

Is that what you mean?

[hallow kernel]

You have it already, just add ", tasks" to line 4

[slate swan]

Done

Let me try

[slate swan]

So close ahh you’ve been really helpful and patient thank you so much

[hallow kernel]

And i see that you already have on_ready() function

[hallow kernel]

Uh shuhh forgot, you don't need ctx in brackets....

[slate swan]

So I would do?

[hallow kernel]

So just add

send_custom_text.start()

To your on_ready function,
And remove that i asked to add

[slate swan]

Which line?

Hold on I’m confused ?

[hallow kernel]

Doesn't matter, just inside of it

[slate swan]

Line 23?

[hallow kernel]

After it will be okay

[slate swan]

So hold on ? I add this where ? send_custom_text.start()

[slate swan]

I’m a bit confused lol

[hallow kernel]

To your on_ready() function

[slate swan]

So between the parenthesis ?

Or after it

[hallow kernel]

Like code that will be executed

[hallow kernel]

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    send_custom_message.start()
    print(f'We have logged in as {bot.user}')

[slate swan]

I’m guessing like this?

[hallow kernel]

And it's message, not text... Oh i am sleepy..

[slate swan]

so send_custom_message.start()

[hallow kernel]

Yes
And right indentation.. (spaces)

[slate swan]

.

Would this be fine ??

( I replaced the text with message )

[hallow kernel]

And removed extra space before that?

[hallow kernel]

You still have extra space on start of line 24

[hallow kernel]

Not all of them!

Just standard python syntax
....

[slate swan]

Like this?

[hallow kernel]

24 and 25 should start on same column..

[slate swan]

So same line?

[hallow kernel]

No

Like standard python syntax

[hallow kernel]

Same number of spaces before ... Oh just figure it out by yourself.

There are few stupid mistakes, code should work if you fix them

And if you want to know what all that was
And if you understand python atleast on basic level

Here is documentation on tasks.loop

And became friends with OOP style

Im going to sleep, bye

[slate swan]

Good night ! Thanks for the help

[hallow kernel]

Ok

Send screenshot of last part of code

[slate swan]

At the end?

[hallow kernel]

Remove lines
46, 45, 44

[hallow kernel]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

Done

[hallow kernel]

Ok it for some reason doesn't know who is server

[slate swan]

What do you mean?

[hallow kernel]

I suppose

[hallow kernel]

It can't find server with that id

(from line 38)

[slate swan]

Ohh

I forgot to put my server Guild there

[slate swan]

Still the same

[slate swan]

Weird

[hallow kernel]

Check if that id is right

[slate swan]

1147111605650325617

Seems right to me

[hallow kernel]

And if bot accaunt is in that server

[slate swan]

I still didn’t invite the bot into server

[hallow kernel]

So that is the reason

[slate swan]

Just added it

[hallow kernel]

Change to is_closed then idk....

[slate swan]

Sorry, what?

[hallow kernel]

||I should get money for that kind of help||
Anyway, 2:23am, i am going to sleep, if you need help find someone else

[slate swan]

Woops

[slate swan]

Fine you’ll receive payment if you help me through out all of this

Or maybe even fix it yourself

[hallow kernel]

I will denie

[slate swan]

20$?

[hallow kernel]

Anything.
I don't think this place is supposed to be paid

I will just leave

[slate swan]

Neither do I lol

[hallow kernel]

You can learn python basics, and start to slightly understand what are you trying to do by yourself, or with help, here should be ton of people who want to help you to learn

But keyword is learn

[slate swan]

I would after this project, but I need it desperately for something

[hallow kernel]

With all steps, like checking documentations, experiments, and etc.

[mighty pilot]

The error tells you exactly what is wrong

Your bot has no attribute named is_close

[slate swan]

Oh I just change it to “if not bot.is_close”

[slate swan]

Is that it?

[mighty pilot]

Is_close does not exist

[hallow kernel]

Try and see

[mighty pilot]

Delete lines 40 and 41, take 4 spaces out of line 42.

[hallow kernel]

It probably easier to make whole script for him.

[mighty pilot]

I've been in and out of here all day, you're a Saint for sticking it out as long as you did

[scenic pike]

Any who can teach me how can i make invite tracker bot?

[slate swan]

They absolutely is

[mighty pilot]

Take 4 spaces out of line 41. Make the first letter line up with the c in channel above it

Hence the unexpected indent

[hallow kernel]

no anime challenge creates a lot of time to spend

[mighty pilot]

Make it look like this, but move line 41 to the left a bit

[slate swan]

Oh sh*t did I delete it ?

[slate swan]

Did I delete it?

[mighty pilot]

Did you?

[slate swan]

I think so 💀

[mighty pilot]

Welp, time to scrap it

[slate swan]

Here is what it was before

[mighty pilot]

Again, line 41.... 4 spaces.... to the left

[slate swan]

I just deleted it fuck

Oh my goodness

[mighty pilot]

Alright I got a child to put to sleep. Good luck!

[severe sonnet]

okay guys

a friend recomended replit

anyone here knows how to use replit vps?

that is 24/07?

[mighty pilot]

I recommend anything but replit

[slate swan]

Would this be a good source ?

It’s a different one

[mighty pilot]

I advise against sharing a bot token in a public forum

[slate swan]

I changed it Already

Before I even sent it

But with a new error I managed to add it back

[mighty pilot]

.

[slate swan]

I don’t see 4 spaces ?

[mighty pilot]

Await needs to match indentation level of the 'channel' above it

[slate swan]

Done

[mighty pilot]

Do you know what I mean when I say indentation level

[slate swan]

Spaces ?

[mighty pilot]

If you draw a line vertical down from where it says channel. The first letters should be on the same vertical line

You know, you've been here 3 hours now and I bet if you had read a python book or study guide for an hour you'd have this fixed an hour ago

Yea it's not hard to write. This code is not complex at all

[slate swan]

Just for me bro I honestly don’t deserve you bro 💀

[severe sonnet]

why you won't recomend replit?

[slate swan]

So that’s it?

[hallow kernel]

Not counting that i made it on phone not existing from discord

[mighty pilot]

I've heard nothing but bad things from people trying to use it

[slate swan]

Wait so im done ?

[severe sonnet]

thought it's one of the fewest that is 24/07

[severe sonnet]

maybe we don't know how do use it

since a friend could use it

[hallow kernel]

That ship should work, but i saw you made some additions

[severe sonnet]

and plus this could be a temporary server for me since i can't pay for one

[mighty pilot]

It's possible to use, sure

[slate swan]

So do I delete the other code

And paste this one in?

[hallow kernel]

Ask @mighty pilot

[slate swan]

I guess yes?

[hallow kernel]

I could misspell or mistake

[mighty pilot]

Lmao idk best way to see is to hit run

I'm just a hobbyist with ideas I like to see happen

[severe sonnet]

No such file: main.py
repl process died unexpectedly: exit status 2

Giving up. You can try again by clicking Run. You may need to fix the [interpreter] definition in the .replit file first.

[severe sonnet]

i don't know how i fix this

[mighty pilot]

Welcome to replit

[severe sonnet]

if i try changing bot.py to main.py it still shows the same issue

i don't know how to config properlhy

*properly

[hallow kernel]

From which directory are you running it?
Same as main.py?

[slate swan]

I ran it

[hallow kernel]

yea i misspeled

[severe sonnet]

this one:

[slate swan]

What was the misspell?

[hallow kernel]

Idk

[slate swan]

I just deleted the whole code

Fuck

[hallow kernel]

Mistake is probably on line 27 as Traceback says

And i probably added new line after colon

[slate swan]

I FIXED IT

IM THE BEST DEVELOPER

ABSOLUTELY NO ONE HELPED ME

[hallow kernel]

[severe sonnet]

@hallow kernel

[mighty pilot]

Congrats you can copy and paste. Sometimes.

[slate swan]

(Sometimes)

[hallow kernel]

Sorry I can't help

[slate swan]

What was the command btw?

[severe sonnet]

need more information?

[hallow kernel]

please Curome don't try to research that staff that you never saw, just because you feel so eager to knowledge. Just go sleep!!!

[slate swan]

For the automation

[severe sonnet]

also Curome, how do i contact the comunity of replit?

[slate swan]

@hallow kernel good night

[mighty pilot]

I feel that I'm the same way. Go get some sleep lol

[hallow kernel]

Are 3 and a half hour that left even matter?

[mighty pilot]

Better than no hours

[slate swan]

I can’t seem to figure out the command

[mighty pilot]

Use /instagram

[slate swan]

Doesn’t work lol

[mighty pilot]

It won't pop up like a slash command

It's a text command

[slate swan]

How do I make it pop up?

Isn’t it better?

[mighty pilot]

Learn some stuff then come back

[slate swan]

Like this for example

[twilit grotto]

thats against instagram TOS & discord if i remember correctly.

[mighty pilot]

Yea ik, it's a whole different layout

[slate swan]

Oh really ? Cry bout it

[mighty pilot]

It's a message that you manually edit

Doesn't actually interface with insta

[twilit grotto]

botting statistics is against TOS 🤷‍♂️

[slate swan]

It doesn’t acc bot

[twilit grotto]

Sure

[mighty pilot]

I'm not super familiar with the mumbo jumbo of all that, but it has no interactions with anything It's just a message that you manually edit

[slate swan]

@mighty pilot doesn’t pop up

[mighty pilot]

Is your bot in that channel

[slate swan]

Yea

[mighty pilot]

learn some stuff

[slate swan]

Nvm but look

[slate swan]

if it doesnt bot then what does the command do then

[final iron]

What's the problem?

[slate swan]

trying to integrate slash commands into a bot that violates TOS

[final iron]

How does it violate TOS

[slate swan]

its a follow bot

[final iron]

huh

[slate swan]

you run a command with how many followers you want a page to receive

or thats how its supposed to work

[mighty pilot]

That's absolutely not what that code does lmao

[slate swan]

what it looks like to me

ive read zero code and all i see is "follow bot" with a guy passing in an ig handle and follower amount

[mighty pilot]

Then maybe look at some code? It takes his input and puts it into a message and sends that message every 530 seconds

[slate swan]

wtf is the point of that

[mighty pilot]

sends a message every once in a while. Believe me, he's not writing anything fancy like a follow bot he was in here for 3 hours troubleshooting that basic code that someone else wrote

[slate swan]

wtf

instagram module: premium follow
quantity: 10
link: blah blah blah

[mighty pilot]

Yes it's poor design, and I told him not to send tokens right after that

[slate swan]

i feel someone is slightly altering their code so we dont see its full functionality

[mighty pilot]

Idk anything about it

[mighty pilot]

This is the code he ended up running

[quick brook]

remove your send custom message task. you don't need it

any bot that just sends messages on a loop is spam

[final iron]

data should be capitalized, library imports should be seperated from module imports

You shouldn't be running things in on_ready as well

[hallow kernel]

Discrord py credi be like

[hallow kernel]

Spam violates ToS?

[quick brook]

it's just annoying. probably also violates tos as well

[hallow kernel]

Why?

Ok imports separated is just some crazy unlogical reason.

But why data should be capitalized? I use it like variable. So it is variable.

[hallow kernel]

Where then?

[final iron]

Subclass, run in setup_hook

[final iron]

pep8, also a class is very far from a variable

[hallow kernel]

Outside of it so i could not use bot.run()? And use bot.login(), bot.start() in asyncio.run(main) ?

[hallow kernel]

What's the difference in that case?

[final iron]

on_ready can be called multiple times during setup, there's also no guarantee it'll be run after the bot connects

Discord also has a chance to disconnect you for making API calls during setup

tldr don't do shit in on_ready

[real oriole]

i have this script https://paste.pythondiscord.com/UR3Q wrong token btw and it sends this error who can help? I need some hours so if there is any questions feel free to hop on my dms and ask and ill answer later

[sick birch]

What is the name of the environment variable containing the token?

[real oriole]

os

[vale wing]

That's module

[sick birch]

Then you should do os.environ.get("os")

[vale wing]

Mm yes you try to access token by token

That kills the point lol

[sick birch]

Indeed

[vale wing]

You access token by name of environment variable, not by token itself

[hallow kernel]

Ty, ill check next time

[gray junco]

Guys

How do i make the options appear? Im on py-cord btw

Slash cmd

[buoyant quail]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/application_commands.html#discord.Option.choices

[gray junco]

Ik but they dont appear

[buoyant quail]

Show how you are using it

[gray junco]

Ok

Oh i use autocomplete

Is it wrong

[buoyant quail]

It's not wrong, just a different thing

Choices are static, autocomplete are dynamic and they update each time you type something

[gray junco]

Why isnt it loading though

Imma use choices im done with autocomplete

[buoyant quail]

Show where you passed it. Here is only the definition of the function

But yeah, you have just a static list so choices would be better

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/application-commands/slash-commands#autocomplete example of both

[gray junco]

How do i use choices

Ty

[left dew]

in a ticket bot, is sending messages in a forum or normal channels better? and if so why

[twilit grotto]

personally, i'd just have a channel which has the embed and button to create a ticket, and upon clicking the button, it pops up a modal which allows the user to specify why they're opening the ticket & more information etc

[twilit grotto]

?

[left dew]

but, why do some people say that sending messages with a bot in forum channels are better than normal channels?

[twilit grotto]

🤷‍♂️ its all personal preference, theres no real benefit in doing each way, personally how i look at it

[left dew]

oh okay

[mighty pilot]

Probably just because forum channels don't clog up your channel list

[left dew]

does anyone have any docs on how to create threads with a bot?

[buoyant quail]

!d discord.TextChannel.create_thread

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.create\_thread

await create_thread(*, name, message=None, auto_archive_duration=..., type=None, reason=None, invitable=True, slowmode_delay=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a thread in this text channel.

To create a public thread, you must have [`create_public_threads`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.create_public_threads). For a private thread, [`create_private_threads`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.create_private_threads) is needed instead.

New in version 2.0.

[tepid dagger]

i did

avatar = user.avatar
  embed.set_thumbnail(avatar)

it said that embed.set_thumbnail takes one positional arg but two were given, why?

[buoyant quail]

Because it takes only keyword args

!e

def f(*, x): ...


f(123)

[unkempt canyon]

@buoyant quail :x: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "/home/main.py", line 4, in <module>
003 |     f(123)
004 | TypeError: f() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

[tepid dagger]

so how does it work

as in how do i fix it

[buoyant quail]

!e

def f(*, x): ...

f(x=123)

[unkempt canyon]

@buoyant quail :warning: Your 3.11 eval job has completed with return code 0.

[No output]

[buoyant quail]

Pass them as argument_name=value

[tepid dagger]

so like
embed.set_thumbnail(*,avatar)?

[naive briar]

No

[tepid dagger]

then what

url = avatar?

[buoyant quail]

Yes
(But avatar should be the link and not the Asset object as you have it now)

[tepid dagger]

then how do i make avatar a link

if it want it to be the user’s. avatar

[buoyant quail]

Look in the methods of the Asset

[tepid dagger]

so

avatar.url?

[buoyant quail]

yes

[real oriole]

so when i fix it it will work?

wait

idk how to fix it

[vale wing]

When you fix something it works (unless you fix it in a wrong way)

[real oriole]

Im gonna fix it in a wring way

LO

what should i change ti make it a good way

[vale wing]

What's your python experience

[real oriole]

its literally the first

bot

[naive briar]

The first bot in the history of Discord bots!?

[real oriole]

the first bot in my history

[vale wing]

If it's your first python project I recommend finding a spoonfeeder getting more python knowledge first

[real oriole]

can u js tell me what to replace and what to replace it to now?

pweaseee

[vale wing]

That's why I said finding a spoonfeeder

I am not one ☺️

[real oriole]

oh.

di you know how to be one

(:

[vale wing]

Ofc it's easy

Just give code and spend lots of time figuring out issue of the beginner

[real oriole]

sinceu seem a good scripter tell me what to do to make it run now

[naive briar]

That sounds like a demand

[real oriole]

what does demand mean

[turbid condor]

[naive briar]

They told you hours ago

[real oriole]

oh lo

i was in school

does bot.client(‘’) work

[turbid condor]

nope

try to understand what Exenifix said

[real oriole]

ok

id rather be a noob than opening a book ti read or leadn that

lol

[turbid condor]

welp he didn't right anything in an alien language that's the most basic thing he's telling

you should at least know what's a variable

[real oriole]

ok

[mighty pilot]

If you're not willing to learn some basic knowledge it's going to be difficult to find someone to help you

Yea if you don't know the simple terms how are you going to know what they're telling you to fix lol

Yup

After running a discord server for a while I've learned nobody knows how to read anyways

[nova vessel]

https://pastebin.com/4EhfjYux

Keep getting a warning message that message content is missing, I know it is enabled in my developer portal.

[naive briar]

You did not enable it in the code

!d discord.Intents.message_content

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.message\_content

Whether message content, attachments, embeds and components will be available in messages which do not meet the following criteria:

• The message was sent by the client

• The message was sent in direct messages

• The message mentions the client

This applies to the following events...

[left dew]

how do i set permissions/overwrites in a thread?

[turbid condor]

The same way you for a channel?

I'm not too sure tho

[left dew]

yes

[tribal sleet]

hellos sirs and female sirs

how i can execute a command when someone mentions the bot but there is also cooldown on the command and it should also work perfectly fine

[buoyant quail]

!d discord.ext.commands.when_mentioned_or

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.when\_mentioned\_or

discord.ext.commands.when_mentioned_or(*prefixes)```
A callable that implements when mentioned or other prefixes provided.

These are meant to be passed into the [`Bot.command_prefix`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.command_prefix) attribute.

Example

```py
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or('!'))
```...

[buoyant quail]

The cooldown stays the same from prefix commands

[tribal sleet]

how it will know the comand to be executed

[buoyant quail]

same as with just prefix

@mybot hello
will execute hello

[tribal sleet]

hmm

can i post code

[turbid condor]

Yeah sure go ahead

Just remove any sensitive info from it if any

[tribal sleet]

@bot.command()
@commands.cooldown(1, 7200, commands.BucketType.user)
async def active(ctx):
  roles=ctx.author.roles
  print(roles)
  perms = discord.AllowedMentions(roles=True)
  role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, id=1097188358322671616)
  for i in roles:
    print(i.id)
    if i.id==role.id:
      await ctx.send(role.mention, allowed_mentions=perms)
@bot.event 
async def on_message(message):
  if message.author==bot.user:
    return
  if bot.user in message.mentions:
    bot.invoke(active)

how i can invoke the active command wit its cooldown working

[turbid condor]

Wdym in above scenario the cool down is by user

[buoyant quail]

Invoke takes context, not command
Get message context and set ctx.command attribute to active, then use invoke with it. maybe this will be enough. I am not sure tho

[tribal sleet]

hmm

i try

[hallow kernel]

Can i make ability to bot to update/add/remove its commands without restarting it?

[buoyant quail]

Bot has add_command and remove_command methods

If you want to change code in them, loading code from the same file in already running script would be not really easy (if you don't have some cool code structure so you will need just to reimport these functions for example), you can use extensions and reload only one extension

[dusk dagger]

The best way to do this is with extensions

[gray junco]

Guys can someone provide a doc for a command that if you say !hello
It will send 2 messages that have a pause in between and the second message replies to the 1st

forgot about it sry

[slate swan]

so .add_reaction is method for Message

you are doing it on Member object

!d discord.Message.add_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.add\_reaction

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

Adds a reaction to the message.

The emoji may be a unicode emoji or a custom guild [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Emoji).

You must have [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history) to do this. If nobody else has reacted to the message using this emoji, [`add_reactions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.add_reactions) is required.

Changed in version 2.0: `emoji` parameter is now positional-only.

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

[rough shuttle]

oh tysm bro

[rough shuttle]

but it still doesnt fix the error tho

[slate swan]

what did you change?

[naive briar]

Nothing will, if you still try to add a reaction to a user for some reason

[rough shuttle]

for emoji in emojis2:
await add_reaction(emojis2, em)

[slate swan]

.add_reaction is a Message method

its not a function

nor it takes 2 arguments

[slate swan]

it takes only one emoji ^

[rough shuttle]

oh okay

[slate swan]

!hosting

[unkempt canyon]

Discord Bot Hosting

Using free hosting options like repl.it or Heroku for continuous 24/7 bot hosting is strongly discouraged.
Instead, opt for a virtual private server (VPS) or use your own spare hardware if you'd rather not pay for hosting.

See our Discord Bot Hosting Guide on our website that compares many hosting providers, both free and paid.

You may also use #965291480992321536 to discuss different discord bot hosting options.

[sick birch]

You can simply use the REST API for that

[dusk dagger]

This is the best free way

[gray junco]

Can anyone help me

Btw its pycord

[dusk dagger]

Error is pretty self explanetory

[gray junco]

but how should i reply if reply isnt in it

btw its replying to a message

not a trigger

[dusk dagger]

A followup is normally best for interactions

[gray junco]

Idk how to do that

Do you have a doc or example for it

[dusk dagger]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Interaction.followup

Here's the docs for it, I've never used pycord so I'm not too sure if it's the same as dpy

What message are you trying to reply to tho?

If it's completely separate from the interaction you will need to get the message object, either by fetching it, or you could also get the partial message if it's cached.

[gray junco]

So the bot sends a normal message and than asyncio.sleep(5)'s and than reply to the first message he sent

[slate swan]

https://discord.com/api/v9/channels/{channel_id}/messages

payload = content : "message"```

[dusk dagger]

Is the first message a interaction response or just a normal message?

[gray junco]

ctx.send

[dusk dagger]

So prefix command?

[gray junco]

No

One sec

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the Paste! button in the bottom left, or by pressing CTRL + S. After doing that, you will be navigated to the new paste's page. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[dusk dagger]

Show me the code for this

Pycord is a little strange

[gray junco]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/RILA

[dusk dagger]

It looks like a prefix command, is it not?

[gray junco]

Idk got it from chatgpt cause my code is complex

Its prefix but supposed to be

slash cmd

[dusk dagger]

This looks like discord.py as well

I suggest you don't use ChatGPT, it's outdated and you won't learn anything from it

[gray junco]

Ok but can u help me with it

I just want to fix the error with the reply

[dusk dagger]

Yeah, I don't understand how ctx is a interaction object tho

Are you sure this is pycord?

[gray junco]

Yea its just async def dumbo(
ctx: discord.ApplicationContext
):

[dusk dagger]

It was a joke lol, I thought it would be somewhat obvious

[dusk dagger]

The code looks like discord.py code, so I suggest you switch to dpy

[gray junco]

Ty i hate pycord fucking confusing as shit

[dusk dagger]

Run this to get a clean install of discord.py

import os
import sys

py_exec = sys.executable
uninstall_list = " -m pip uninstall nextcord py-cord interactions.py disnake dislash discord-py-slash-command discord.py-message-components enhanced-discord.py novus hata discord-interactions discord.py-self discord.py-self.embed discord2 python-discord reactionmenu discord_py_buttons discord_slash discord.py discord discord-ext-forms discord-ext-alternatives dpy-appcommands"

os.system(py_exec + uninstall_list)
os.system(py_exec + " -m pip install discord.py --no-cache-dir")

[gray junco]

bruh.

[dusk dagger]

What IDE is this?

[gray junco]

Its package tab of replit

[dusk dagger]

Oh, don't use replit to run or host your bot. It's not made for what you're trying to do, and it can cause issues that are purely based off replit.

Use a real IDE like vs code

[gray junco]

Im mobile only sadly

[dusk dagger]

Coding on mobile

[gray junco]

Ikr im ruining my code on mobile kinda

[dusk dagger]

it should work with dpy, you will just need to enable the message content intent

[candid steeple]

Anyone can help me with text recognition from image

[gray junco]

How

[dusk dagger]

You said "it's supposed to be a slash command" earlier, and this is not how you make slash commands with dpy. Read this gist if you would like examples and info on slash commands with dpy. Additionally, I recommend you change your prefix from / as it's bad UX.

[dusk dagger]

intents.message_content = True

[slate swan]

hi after trying this out of boredom, im getting an error and im confused rn

import requests

channel_id = input("Channel ID: ")
r = f"https://discord.com/api/v9/channels/{channel_id}/messages"
headers = {"authorization" : "pretend this is token"}

while True:
    message = input("Message: ")
    res = requests.post(url=r, headers=headers, data={"content" : message})
    if res.status_code == 200:
        print("successfully sent")
    else:
        print(res.content)```

bot has permissions and access to the channel

[dusk dagger]

If you're using Intents.default() disabling presences is redundant because default doesn't enable any privileged intents

[slate swan]

401 issue

it isnt gpt lol

[dusk dagger]

Not talking to you

[slate swan]

oh

[final iron]

Requests is blocking

[buoyant quail]

It's raw api + input so it doesn't really matters

[buoyant quail]

This code is ok.. Maybe you forgot to add "Bot" in authorization?

[dusk dagger]

There's no event loop running in this

[gray junco]

Guys is there any example of a slash command and the slash command replies with a normal message? Ctx kinda doesnt work for me 😦

[meager rock]

headers = {"authorization" : "Bot pretend this is token"}
``` you need to add `Bot ` before the token in authorization header

[sick birch]

Also it has to be Authorization iirc

Note capital A

[meager rock]

i dont remember if it's case sensitive or not but going with convention the first char needs to be uppercase

[buoyant quail]

it's not case sensitive actually

[buoyant quail]

!d discord.Interaction.followup

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.followup

Returns the follow up webhook for follow up interactions.

[buoyant quail]

webhook for normal messages
as i remember works only after replying, but maybe not

or just take the channel

!d discord.Interaction.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.channel

The channel the interaction was sent from.

Note that due to a Discord limitation, if sent from a DM channel recipient is None.

[gray junco]

How do i use it

Can you tell me please or send a example

[buoyant quail]

It has send method

async def some_command(interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message("response")
    await interaction.followup.send("normal message")

[upbeat mason]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.typing = False
intents.presences = False
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="-", intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'Logged in as {bot.user.name} with the ID of {bot.user.id}')

# KEEP THIS
bot.remove_command("help")
# KEEP THIS

@bot.command()
async def say(ctx, *text):
    await ctx.send(' '.join(text))  # Join the text with spaces

bot.run("token")

someone tell me why my bot does nothing when i run the say command 😭

[unkempt canyon]

Discord Message Content Intent

The Discord gateway only dispatches events you subscribe to, which you can configure by using "intents."

The message content intent is what determines if an app will receive the actual content of newly created messages. Without this intent, discord.py won't be able to detect prefix commands, so prefix commands won't respond.

Privileged intents, such as message content, have to be explicitly enabled from the Discord Developer Portal in addition to being enabled in the code:

intents = discord.Intents.default() # create a default Intents instance
intents.message_content = True # enable message content intents

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents) # actually pass it into the constructor

For more information on intents, see /tag intents. If prefix commands are still not working, see /tag on-message-event.

[buoyant quail]

Prefix commands can't run without message content intent

you should also get a warning about it when you run it

[upbeat mason]

anyways thanks for the help

[buoyant quail]

first line of output

[upbeat mason]

oh crap

i didnt see that

thought it was just part of the loading up stuff

[buoyant quail]

: )

[gray junco]

@buoyant quail you are a lifesaver

You deserve to get a role here ngl none helped me better than you

[slate swan]

this was helpful

and authorization didnt need to be capitalised

so any api request that i can see using the network tab, i can recreate by adding Bot to the auth header?

[meager rock]

there are some endpoints that can be used only using Bearer tokens, but yes you can use most endpoints like this

https://discord.dev has all the endpoints exposed to bots

[drifting arrow]

what would cause this?

do I need to update my discordpy? ;-;

[quick brook]

what version of dpy do you have?

[drifting arrow]

One from before the name changes

[quick brook]

that doesn't help. semver version?

[drifting arrow]

lemme get it

[drifting arrow]

2.3.1

[quick brook]

i run 2.3.2 without any issues so idk what could the cause be

[drifting arrow]

I'll upgrade now anyway

[quick brook]

ok

[drifting arrow]

figured it out

had nothing to do with the discord.py

friend decided to move his API endpoints without letting me know -.-

[slate swan]

hello guys, i've been wanting to create a larger bot for a while now

but my only question is: what's the best way to sync a bot with a database?

i want to use mysql

my questions are stuff like: do i need just oen curosr active at all time? do i have a loop that makes sure the cursor is alive, do i need a queue for writing/reading data from the database?

[quick brook]

Manual

[quick brook]

And do not use MySQL. Use PostgreSQL

[quick brook]

Connection pools are your answer

TL;DR: MySQL is a bad database. Don't use it unless you have literally no other option.

Why shouldn't I use MySQL?

• MySQL has no transactional DDL. This means that if you fuck up creating a table in the middle of a migration, you cannot rollback easily.
• MySQL has a lot of security issues. New zero-day vulnerabilities are found regularly.
• MySQL is owned by Oracle.
• MySQL is slow. It beats Postgres etc at some things, but once you move beyond basic queries it begins to slog.
• MySQL disconnects you randomly. Unless you setup your connection specially, it will break regularly.
• MySQL allows all kinds of insane data to be inserted. '0000-00-00' is valid in MySQL.
• MySQL is not ANSI compliant. You have to turn it on; even then it isn't fully compliant.
• MySQL has no feature advantage over other databases; PostgreSQL has many more useful features (such as RETURNs).

There is no reason to use MySQL over PostgreSQL, or even sqlite3. See also:
https://blog.ionelmc.ro/2014/12/28/terrible-choices-mysql/
https://grimoire.ca/mysql/choose-something-else

[slate swan]

oh isee

connection pool is like available connections i can use, and when no connection is available i just wait for a new one to be available right?

[quick brook]

Connection pools are pools of connection that your bot can get, do stuff, and then release back into the pool. It's a far more efficient way to maintain connections instead of constantly spam creating new ones

If you are looking for saving data then have a look at postgres.
PostgreSQL(https://www.postgresql.org/) is one of the best relational databases which is most programmers' first preference. We call it Postgres because why not?
The python driver, asyncpg(https://magicstack.github.io/asyncpg/current/), provides asynchronous support for Postgres!
If you have prior experience with SQL then you can easily switch to Postgres. If you don't then you can take this interactive tutorial at https://sqlbolt.com
Have a look at this Example Code as well to get a quick start: https://gist.github.com/jegfish/cfc7b22e72426f5ced6f87caa6920fd6

[slate swan]

its first time i see someone saying mysql is bad database

[quick brook]

Yep it is. People have reported random disconnects with mysql

[slate swan]

random disconnects cause of mysql or cause of the python library

[quick brook]

MySQL

[buoyant quail]

asyncpg does that to

i was getting a lot of connection is closed for no reason

[quick brook]

I've used asyncpg in production and never had that happen

[quick brook]

I would think it's the way you are maintaining the connections that is the issue

I've used PostgreSQL for 2 years and never had that happen to me

[slate swan]

yes postgres is better than mysql but i wouldnt say that you shouldnt use mysql casue of that

[slate swan]

i have a question, since I have a connection pool, is there any reason i should use asyncpg over psycopg?

[quick brook]

Async

[slate swan]

isn't a connection pool basically making psycopg asynchronous?

[slate swan]

psychopg is synchronous i belive

[quick brook]

Plus 3.89x faster compared to psycopg3

[quick brook]

psycopg3 is but asyncpg is like 2-3x faster iirc

Asyncpg is also apparently 8.2x faster than node-pg

Based off of geometric means

[quick brook]

Nope

[mighty pilot]

Isn't mariadb basically the same as mysql? I've been using that for over a year with no issues, just make sure you set the connection timeout to a value reasonable for your application

[quick brook]

Both are different

Mariadb was forked bc MySQL basically got owned by Oracle

[mighty pilot]

Ah I see

[quick brook]

Mariadb strives to maintain compatibility with mysql but I haven't seen a good maintained mariadb driver out there that can compare to asyncpg

[mighty pilot]

I use the one in their documents. Pretty straightforward. It was recommended to me by a friend that gets paid to do IT and I'm just a hobbyist so anything used in commercial applications is probably good enough for me

[quick brook]

Ah ok

[mighty pilot]

I just always thought it was a more updated mysql, because that's how it was described to me

[quick brook]

it is actually

[nova vessel]

How would I enable them in my code?

[dusty marsh]

Would anyone here be able to share how they modeled their database for their discord bot, I have a few ideas but not sure which is the right approach

[mighty pilot]

Depends on what you're doing. I have a level bot that stores info in a table which the keys are server ID and user ID then I just have their points. Seperate table for specific server info like roles assigned at specific levels and level up difficulty and a bunch of other parameters associated with it

[dusty marsh]

do you have a table dedicated to each guild, for example the guild id being the primary key and then you make columns for all the info needed for that guild or do you just use the guild id as a key for entries in other tables?

[mighty pilot]

My original layout had the guild ID as the table names, but then I wanted to change some functionality so I made it all one table for user points info and a seperate table for server specific info with the guild ID as key and a new column for each piece of info stored for that guild

So 2 tables, one for points which stores guild ID (key) user ID (key) and points and a seperate table with guild ID (key) and a bunch of parameters associated with it

[quick brook]

https://github.com/No767/Kumiko/tree/dev/Migrations you can always take a look at my messy migrations for maybe an idea

[quick brook]

For my design, each guild is unique. In fact, the id, which is the primary key, is the guild id

[hushed galleon]

this is how i modelled the schema for my fairly simple starboard bot (ignore the crows feet, some of the relationships are more practically 0-1/1-1 because of triggers)
https://github.com/thegamecracks/thestarboard/tree/main/db/migrations

[slate swan]

what software did u use for ur tables

thats really nice

[hushed galleon]

i just used the ERD feature of pgadmin because that was what i had on hand, the lines were quite finicky to edit

[slate swan]

gotcha

[dusty marsh]

so the user table

[hushed galleon]

but basically i normalized the various discord entities (users, channels, guilds, and messages) into their own tables for the benefit of clear relationships and cascading deletes
(for example if the starboard channel was deleted, i have the guild config table set to nullify the starboard channel ID, or if a message was deleted any stars recorded for that message would be deleted too)

[dusty marsh]

you dont store anything but the user

id

[slate swan]

all u need rly

unless u want other fields such as avatar url, username, display (all accessible through using the id)

[hushed galleon]

the disadvantage is having to make more queries when inserting entities to make sure their dependencies are present
https://github.com/thegamecracks/thestarboard/blob/main/src/thestarboard/database/api.py#L149-L152

[unkempt canyon]

src/thestarboard/database/api.py lines 149 to 152

await self.add_channel(channel_id, guild_id=guild_id)
await self.add_user(user_id)
await self.conn.execute(
    "INSERT INTO message (id, channel_id, user_id) VALUES ($1, $2, $3) "```

[dusty marsh]

so whats the reasoning for the table with just the id, you wouldnt be able to do much with that information in a table right?

[hushed galleon]

well really the main reason was i just wanted to make a normalized schema to see how it would go, but in practical usage you might find denormalizing your schema (e.g. no guild/user tables) easier to work with

in my schema i have it configured so if say, the bot gets removed from a guild, it can run a simple DELETE query on guild to make everything associated with that guild go away (config, channels, and messages)

[quick brook]

please just dont use on_ready

and also why do you need to close the bot afterwards?

and also please please do not spoonfeed code

generally you dont need to input the guild id, channel id, and message

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/basic_bot.py

i would recommend you read the examples first

[final iron]

How to get ratelimited 101

[whole ocean]

why

[quick brook]

lemme explain

[quick brook]

As noted in the docs, on_ready is also triggered multiple times, not just once

discord.py

#discord-bots message

examples can be found in the message linked above

you dont

[whole ocean]

yea but he didn’t wanna use commands so would have to be that or presence probably

[quick brook]

bruh why do you have the token to begin with

[final iron]

How do you have dynos token?

[quick brook]

still on_ready should not be used

1. Before even attempting to create a discord bot, please learn python (!resources)
2. To install discord.py, please run python3 -m pip install discord.py (linux), or py -3 - m pip install discord.py (windows)
   If you wish to use voice functionality, please use discord.py[voice] instead of discord.py
3. Take a look at https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/basic_bot.py Mess around.
4. When you start making your bot, use the commands ext: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/commands.html
   or if you wanna use slash commands: https://gist.github.com/AbstractUmbra/a9c188797ae194e592efe05fa129c57f
5. The library documentation is available at https://discordpy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

If you need help please make a post in our #985299059441025044 Forum if its related to Python and/or Discord.py

If you are migrating from the old version of this library (1.7.x) to version 2.X.X please follow the migrating guide https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/migrating.html

anyways
