[vocal laurel]

he isnt

he is just saying

[final iron]

I’m literally just mentioning it

[vocal laurel]

and ur free to ignore what he says

[desert kiln]

Imma go ahead and block you

[final iron]

Alright buddy!

[final iron]

fr

[vocal laurel]

think he too it too litterally

[final iron]

Is this the full trace back?

[final iron]

People take things too personally, I literally have no clue who he is

There are like 30+ users in this channel a day

It’s a common opinion as well, even has a tag in the discord.py server

[vocal laurel]

ye

but if i must say i will disagree with ur opionin as a lot of bots have it and is just nice to have the name included but thats just my seeing

[final iron]

Is there an error?

[vocal laurel]

this it

[final iron]

Something wrong with the json it looks like

Possibly when doing response.json()

Id print the text first, and see if it’s valid

[desert kiln]

I had the same error trying to use APIs

[turbid condor]

!json

[unkempt canyon]

Empty JSON error

When using JSON, you might run into the following error:

JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

This error could have appeared because you just created the JSON file and there is nothing in it at the moment.

Whilst having empty data is no problem, the file itself may never be completely empty.

You most likely wanted to structure your JSON as a dictionary. To do this, edit your empty JSON file so that it instead contains {}.

Different data types are also supported. If you wish to read more on these, please refer to this article.

[final iron]

^

Print it, see what it returns

[vocal laurel]

ooh

{} u need this in the json file

[final iron]

There is no json file

The response could be empty, or invalid

He’s requesting an API

[naive swan]

i think tht i wrote conplete nonsense lol. im gonna rewrite it. thanks for the help, tho

[final iron]

[turbid condor]

then no data

and i'd suggest using aiohttp or some similar async lib for doing api calls

as synchronous lib can cause blocking

[final iron]

httpx is a good option

[desert kiln]

I need something that can change the colours on an image, for something like emojis

[final iron]

pil

Not async though, you’ll need to thread it

[vocal laurel]

^

[desert kiln]

Ok so, I just figured out, you need to resync commands each time it joins a server, is there a way I can do that?

[vocal laurel]

it wouldnt be recomended but you can use the event on_guild_joiniirc

@final iron how can u get up the docs (in d.py u can use ?rtfm)

[final iron]

You’ll have to provide the full path

!d discord.on_guild_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_guild\_join

discord.on_guild_join(guild)```
Called when a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild) is either created by the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) or when the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) joins a guild.

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

[vocal laurel]

ooh

[desert kiln]

Would this work

    async def on_guild_join(guild):
        for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
            if filename.endswith('.py'):
                try:
                    await self.reload_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')
                    print(f'Reloaded {filename[:-3]} cog after joining {guild.name}.')
                except Exception as e:
                    print(f'Failed to reload {filename[:-3]} cog after joining {guild.name}. Error: {str(e)}')```

[final iron]

I prefer it

[vocal laurel]

ye but you could get rate limited i think

[vocal laurel]

why?

[final iron]

Sometimes there’s functions with the same/similar names

[vocal laurel]

true

but u do get mutliple results

[final iron]

They have different use cases

I prefer this bot when I’m helping, as it’s clear what I’m referencing

[vocal laurel]

ye this does give more info in discord

[final iron]

But when I’m searching for something r. Danny makes it easy

[vocal laurel]

why are you reloading all the extensions when u r joining a guild?

just reload the extension that has the thing u need to reload instead of all of them

[desert kiln]

there's only gonna be 3 cogs so it should be fine

[desert kiln]

but how do I fix this error

@vocal laurel

[vocal laurel]

i cant figure it out

gimme some time

[desert kiln]

oh okay

[vocal laurel]

OH

ik

u forgot self since its in a class

@desert kiln

[desert kiln]

where do I put it

[vocal laurel]

before the guild param

[desert kiln]

self.guild?

[vocal laurel]

on_guild_join(guild) -> on_guild_join(self, guild)

basic OOP btw

but ye

[desert kiln]

It's working now

[vocal laurel]

ok nice

[desert kiln]

thanks :)

[vocal laurel]

np 😄

[desert kiln]

is worth adding owner commands for ro loading cogs or no?

[vocal laurel]

100%

u should also add loading unloading extensions to that owner commands too

[desert kiln]

I'll make a owner cog, and add them to it

[vocal laurel]

ok sure

u should also try jsk

jishaku is a debugging and experimenting cog for Discord bots using discord.py@rewrite.
Note that this only works with Python 3.6+ and discord.py rewrite.
You can install it by running the following:
pip install -U jishaku
or
pip install -U git+https://github.com/Gorialis/jishaku

To get the cog running, simply do
bot.load_extension('jishaku')

You can see the source code yourself here: https://github.com/Gorialis/jishaku

just install jishaku

thne do self.load_extension("jishaku") inside setup hook but outside of for loop

[desert kiln]

I'm so confused

@vocal laurel

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/3H5A

@vocal laurel check that, I'm getting errors for it

[turbid condor]

you are using bot.load_extension inside the class

[desert kiln]

oh shi

yea I forgot lmao

[desert kiln]

I use self right?

[turbid condor]

try and see

[desert kiln]

It didn't work :c

@turbid condor

[turbid condor]

still the same error?

[desert kiln]

Nope, self is not defined

[turbid condor]

show what u did

[desert kiln]

wym?

Show the code?

[turbid condor]

weird

try using self.bot.load_extension

[desert kiln]

Still nothing

I fixed it, there was extra code at the bottom that was causing it to fail

That's the highest ping I've ever seen @turbid condor

[mighty pilot]

13 seconds of lag

[desert kiln]

I don't even know

how that happened

Uh @turbid condor I need help

I'm trying to put my files onto a server, and it's saying the ./cogs/ dosent exist

[mighty pilot]

What are you trying to use to host it

Did you actually upload the cogs

[desert kiln]

I'm using Diva Hosting, and yes I did upload the cogs

Is it because it's on a server? So it's different code to find files?

[mighty pilot]

Could be

[desert kiln]

It does, I had to do bot/cogs then it worked

it now works

[vocal laurel]

U still need help?

@desert kiln ?

[vocal laurel]

Ok nvm

[desert kiln]

I do, for this

bot.remove_command('help')```

I want it to work with my bot

Idk where to put it

[vocal laurel]

In the super.init for Solaris class just do help_command=None

[desert kiln]

oh

A walkthrough on subclassing help: 
<https://gist.github.com/InterStella0/b78488fb28cadf279dfd3164b9f0cf96>

[desert kiln]

what

[quick brook]

that

that's the proper way to do it

would recommend reading up on the guide on how to do it

[desert kiln]

but why would I need to do the over complex way?

[quick brook]

the "complex way" handles a lot of the stuff for you already. the way you are thinking of implementing it is more than likely hard coded. What happens if you have to hard code 100 commands with the names, examples, and descriptions?

Doing the subclassing method will quite literally save you a ton of work and all you need to do is to initally create your own subclass, write the code to format the way you like it, and dpy will handle the rest for you automatically

[desert kiln]

but that's learning something I have no clue of, I've only just started with cogs

[quick brook]

tackle it at a later time. but what i'm saying is that you should use the subclass method instead of the way you were originally thinking of doing it

[vocal laurel]

its in the pins

why when the time of wait for ends the bot make this action also

  await ctx.reply(f"""عذرأ ، يرجي استعمال الأمر بشكل صحيح !
مثال : 
!buy (flagged - unflagged) (amount)""")

[slate swan]

you know the isinstance doesnt work like that if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument) or (error, commands.BadArgument):

[harsh orbit]

how it works?

[slate swan]

you are just checking if error is instance of MissingRequiredArgument or if (error, commands.BadArgument) this tuple resolves to True

which always gonna be true

if you want to check if its this or that type do this isinstance(error, Error1 | Error2)

[harsh orbit]

commands.MissingRequiredArgument | commands.BadArgument

?

[slate swan]

if those are the errors you want to check for yes

[harsh orbit]

the problem aint solved

also

the problem not from the error

its from the else

the bot join in this else someway

       else:
          await ctx.reply(f"""عذرأ ، يرجي استعمال الأمر بشكل صحيح !
          مثال : 
          !buy (flagged - unflagged) (amount)""") ```

solved

[onyx elk]

can someone give me a fun command to add to the bot

[quick brook]

make an economy system, and add taxes to your system

[buoyant quail]

leave - makes that bot leave from the server

[quick brook]

and then calculate govt tax revenue, where a govt in this case is a server

the calcuatations are not that hard

[slate swan]

Guys i have an question when i do in python an script i execute it but the bot command doesnt respond

And the perms are all set

And the bot is online

[buoyant quail]

Show code

[slate swan]

Wait im not home

[buoyant quail]

It supports only asynchronous context manager

https://magicstack.github.io/asyncpg/current/api/index.html#asyncpg.pool.Pool.acquire

[slate swan]

Oh I didn't notice I forgot to put await

thanks g

[strong knoll]

Can anybody code me a command: .message (role) (number of days)

that would basically get all member from a specified role and get their messages counted

for the specified number of days

[slate swan]

I need someone that knows nextcord dm me

[quick brook]

Why choose nextcord? Is your bot made during the 2021 hiatus of dpy?

[slate swan]

?

[slate swan]

Get unix timestamp of what it'd be in set amount of time and store it in a db. Make a check on your bot that automatically goes through each one and checks if the role needs to be removed

[quick brook]

Why are u using nextcord?

[slate swan]

It has slash commands

[quick brook]

Discord.py has it as well

[slate swan]

How? I tried to make slash commands for months and nothing worked

[quick brook]

In fact, all of the major discord features like dropdowns, modals, buttons, slash commands, etc all work

[slate swan]

Remember yesterday, how should I go about inputting the data into the db

[quick brook]

Here is a short example of how to use discord.py's slash commands as well as general information on them:

https://gist.github.com/AbstractUmbra/a9c188797ae194e592efe05fa129c57f

This currently covers free commands and groups at the Bot level, as well as within Cog classes.
It also includes information and gotchas relating to syncing and whatnot.

NOTE: This will be migrating to https://about.abstractumbra.dev/ as soon as I can be bothered to finish it.

[robust fulcrum]

Guys I have general question , I see many people jump into discord.py without knowing python , why?

[buoyant quail]

Because they don't want to learn ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[robust fulcrum]

The why they come here to ask their dumb questions?

[quick brook]

Bc they want to create dbots and get that clout without putting the effort to learn

[slate swan]

@quick brook Ill change to discord.py if i get the slash commands working ill stay on discord.py

[quick brook]

Ok

[robust fulcrum]

True

[buoyant quail]

You can ask them

[robust fulcrum]

Hmm

[golden portal]

i feel like it's because of how simple the syntax is for discord python bots that they fail to see the amount of abstraction needed to make it simple so they just jump in without knowing python

[robust fulcrum]

They jump especially by seeing the blogs on Google

Or YouTube videos

[quick brook]

Also those as well

[robust fulcrum]

I guess

No

[golden portal]

woah, concurrency isn't basic tho

[robust fulcrum]

You need to know about asynchronous programming which is a intermediate topic

[slate swan]

  File "d:\\main.py", line 4, in <module>
    from discord import commands
ImportError: cannot import name 'commands' from 'discord' (unknown location)
PS D:\> ```

[robust fulcrum]

discord.ext

[slate swan]

tried

[robust fulcrum]

See docs

[robust fulcrum]

I don't see discord.ext here?

from discord.ext import commands 

[slate swan]

i removed it

[quick brook]

Slash commands?

[slate swan]

and it has the same error

[onyx elk]

from discord.ext import commands

[robust fulcrum]

I also said him this

[buoyant quail]

Then you have a broken installation

[onyx elk]

oh

[slate swan]

  File "d:\\main.py", line 4, in <module>
    from discord.ext import commands
ImportError: cannot import name 'commands' from 'discord.ext' (unknown location)
PS D:\> ```

[robust fulcrum]

hmm

You should uninstall and reinstall it i guess

[slate swan]

oh sh im so dumb

[onyx elk]

try upgrading
pip install --upgrade

[slate swan]

to use nextcord you have to uninstall discord.py

[robust fulcrum]

no i guess

[quick brook]

Yea u need to uninstall nextcord if u want to use dpy

[slate swan]

Ok now i did it and i ran it i got this error:

  bot.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}")
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

[robust fulcrum]

But why ? It isn't that u can't keep multiple libraries?

[quick brook]

Now with dpy, loading exts are now async. So you need to await them

[quick brook]

Namespace issues. The forks are forked off of dpy 1.7.3 and conflict with the namespace of dpy

[robust fulcrum]

But they have different names

hmm i guess I dumb

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'Cogs.economy' raised an error: TypeError: object NoneType can't be used in 'await' expression

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("BOT ONLINE")

    for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"):
        if filename.endswith(".py"):
            await bot.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}")

    await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Game(name="/help"))```

[quick brook]

Is the await on the same line?

[slate swan]

yesssssssssssssssss

[quick brook]

I see

Instead of doing async setup in on_ready, or using a task which may lead to events being called before that task runs, you can overwrite Client/Bot.setup_hook.

For example:-

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
    async def setup_hook(self):
        print("Bot is starting")
        await self.load_extension("my.extension")

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup_hook

[slate swan]

can i just give you access to my bot

with codetogether

[quick brook]

What is that

[slate swan]

You can code together

[quick brook]

I'm on mobile rn. Just put the code on GH and I'll fork and make a PR with the changes

[slate swan]

You can edit it on mobile

[quick brook]

It's hard to do it on mobile and I'd prefer to do it on my laptop instead

[slate swan]

kk

[robust fulcrum]

Btw don't mind but u should not spoon feed

[quick brook]

Yea I won't

[robust fulcrum]

I am sorry if my language is bad

[quick brook]

It's fine

[slate swan]

still cant fix it

[worldly harbor]

stupid question but ive been reading the api and researching and everything and i just cant learn anything related to discord.py and all im trying to do is make it create a category + voice channel that nobody can join, any tips?

learning bot dev sounds impossible idek where to start

[naive briar]

!d discord.Guild.create_voice_channel - you can specify the overwrites

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_voice\_channel

await create_voice_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, position=..., bitrate=..., user_limit=..., rtc_region=..., video_quality_mode=..., overwrites=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

This is similar to [`create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel) except makes a [`VoiceChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel) instead.

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

[naive briar]

!d discord.Guild.default_role - This return the @everyone role, so you can set its connect overwrite to false in the said argument

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.default\_role

property default_role```
Gets the @everyone role that all members have by default.

[worldly harbor]

i've no clue how to use any of these, where can i learn from?

[lyric sigil]

Do someone know a good repo with a music bot ?

or a tutorial to make it for myself ?

[cold meadow]

hey, i am trying to get the profile picture of the bot the script is controling, but my code does not work:

pb = client.user.avatar_url

('ClientUser' object has no attribute 'avatar_url')

how can i fix this?

[slate swan]

!d discord.ClientUser

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ClientUser

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

x == y Checks if two users are equal.

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

hash(x) Return the user’s hash.

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

[slate swan]

check out what attributes it has

im sure you will find what you are looking for

[quick gust]

it should be avatar.url

changed in 2.0+ I believe

[onyx elk]

whats the difference between on member remove and on member leave

[slate swan]

Difference is that on member leave doesnt exist

Is there a way to check if a user is a bot from the message object?

[graceful ermine]

Hey, how could I fix this error? I'm trying to make a role stript command where it takes a members roles away

        
    
    @app_commands.commands.command(name="rolesript", description="nothing")
    @app_commands.checks.has_any_role(owner_role, co_owner_role) 
    async def roe_stript(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member):

        for role in member.roles:
            await member.remove_roles(role)

        await interaction.response.send_message("done!")```

[cold meadow]

Fixed it, it is display_avatar now

[naive briar]

!d discord.Message.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.author

A Member that sent the message. If channel is a private channel or the user has the left the guild, then it is a User instead.

[naive briar]

!d discord.User.bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.bot

Specifies if the user is a bot account.

[slate swan]

Member.roles

A list of Role that the member belongs to. Note that the first element of this list is always the default @everyone role.
It's probably throwing an error trying to remove the everyone role from them.

[graceful ermine]

hm, and how do I stop that from happening?

by making a if statement?

[turbid condor]

You need to get the role firs using get_role

[naive briar]

What?

[turbid condor]

Then check it if it's in member.roles

After that u can remove it

[graceful ermine]

can't I just make a for loop for that?

[slate swan]

Either skip the first element of member.roles or check each if each individual role is the default role

[naive briar]

!e

roles = ["everyone", "some_role", "another_role"]
for role in roles[1:]:
    print(role)

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | some_role
002 | another_role

[graceful ermine]

Ok

[mighty pilot]

The way I've done it is like... for role in roles: if not role x: do the thing

[mighty pilot]

I like this though

[graceful ermine]

thanks it works now

[graceful ermine]

instead of doing that just do for roles in member.roles[1:]: ...

[naive briar]

Yes? That's just a pseudo code

[mighty pilot]

Literally the same lol

Aside from she provided a list to execute an example

[left dew]

how can i make a discord channel delete if no message has been sent in it in over 30 minutes?

[sick birch]

Some sort of memory cache that keeps track of the last time a message was sent, and a task that checks it

[mighty pilot]

Store the time of the most recent message and wait 30

[sick birch]

Or yeah

You can cancel tasks

[mighty pilot]

Cute umbrella

[sick birch]

Cancel the sleep task when a new message happens, restart it

[mighty pilot]

That's what I would do

[graceful ermine]

How could I pull a member's role with all of the role's ID?

[mighty pilot]

Do a for loop over member.roles

[left dew]

this?

                async for message in channel.history(limit=1):
                    time_since_last_message = (discord.utils.utcnow() - message.created_at).total_seconds()
                    if time_since_last_message > 1800:  # 30 minutes in seconds
                        print(f'Deleting channel: {channel.name}')
                        await channel.delete()
                        break```

[sick birch]

You could just use on_message

[graceful ermine]

Yeah I know that but i'm trying to get the members role in a int

[mighty pilot]

Role.id

[graceful ermine]

so member.roles.id?

[naive briar]

No

[mighty pilot]

For role in member.roles:
Print(role.id)

[graceful ermine]

ohhh

[left dew]

how?

[graceful ermine]

Makes sense now

[sick birch]

Have a dict where the key is channel ID and the value is asyncio.Task, in your on_message, check if there's an entry for it, if so, cancel the task, start a new one, and set it as the value

[hollow storm]

Hi I have a problem with a Discord BOT,
I have created a separate folder for each command and specified that in the main.py see picture.

However, the error always comes when I start the bot: 2023-09-16 17:43:17 ERROR discord.client Ignoring exception in on_ready

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

[naive briar]

Can you show the extension's setup function?

[shrewd fjord]

yo catty sup :3

[naive briar]

If you're using discord.py, the setup function needs to be async

[naive briar]

Hiii 🐈

[shrewd fjord]

[hollow storm]

you mean this?
async def load_cogs(): initial_extensions = ['cogs.create_coaching_zone', 'cogs.delete_coaching_zone', 'cogs.helpme', 'cogs.clearall', 'cogs.member_update'] for extension in initial_extensions: await bot.load_extension(extension)

[shrewd fjord]

no.

[naive briar]

No, from the extension file

Or cog, if that's how you call it

[hollow storm]

f`rom discord.ext import commands

class ClearAll(commands.Cog):
def init(self, bot):
self.bot = bot

@commands.command(name='clearall')
@commands.has_role("Leitung")  # Nur Benutzer mit der Rolle "Leitung" können diesen Befehl verwenden
async def clearall(self, ctx):
    channel = ctx.channel
    async for message in channel.history(limit=None):  
        await message.delete()

    # Logge die Aktion
    await ctx.send('Alle Nachrichten im Kanal wurden gelöscht.')

def setup(bot):
bot.add_cog(ClearAll(bot))`

[shrewd fjord]

you must add setup function in extension file [seems like u did or it would raise exception] maybe the setup function is the impasta here

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.add_cog

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.add\_cog

await add_cog(cog, /, *, override=False, guild=..., guilds=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Adds a “cog” to the bot.

A cog is a class that has its own event listeners and commands.

If the cog is a [`app_commands.Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Group) then it is added to the bot’s [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree) as well.

Note

Exceptions raised inside a [`Cog`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog)’s [`cog_load()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog.cog_load) method will be propagated to the caller...

[naive briar]

Change the setup function to an async function and await the add_cog method

[shrewd fjord]

its coro and the setup function needs to be async as well

[mighty pilot]

Async all the things

https://tenor.com/view/all-the-things-hyperbole-and-a-half-do-all-the-things-excited-gif-5207369

[shrewd fjord]

async while True 💀

[turbid condor]

Seems like the cog is not loaded

There is some error in create_coaching_zone.py

So if you are using a for loop it gets terminated when this error occurs so fix that first or try loading this cog seperately

[shrewd fjord]

do th same thing to all other extensions

[mighty pilot]

Yea that's the first one in the list for the loop

[shrewd fjord]

fix the setup function in every extension/cog

[naive swan]

hey. is it possible to split comment every N words here?

@client.command()
async def ytcom(ctx, *, comment: str):
    url=f'https://some-random-api.com/canvas/misc/youtube-comment?avatar={ctx.author.avatar.url}&username={ctx.author.name}&comment={comment}'

cant figure out how to do it

[harsh orbit]

how to know the servers that bot in them?

[turbid condor]

U can use bot.guilds to get a list of the guilds the bot is in

[harsh orbit]

I want to get the links

[turbid condor]

The invite links?

[harsh orbit]

yes

[turbid condor]

For that your bot needs to have permission to create links in them

[harsh orbit]

I know

how to get them ?

[graceful ermine]

How can I fix this error with aiosqlite?

    @app_commands.commands.command(name="unrole-stript", description="nothing")
    @app_commands.checks.has_any_role(owner_role, co_owner_role) 
    async def unroe_stript(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member):


        async with self.bot.db2.cursor() as cursor:
            await cursor.execute("SELECT role FROM user =?", (member.id))
            role = await cursor.fetchone()

        
        await member.add_roles(role)```

[turbid condor]

U need to get the default channel after that for every guild and then generate an invite using create_invite
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.TextChannel.create_invite

[slate swan]

Read this. And it's a question for #databases next time.

[graceful ermine]

Okay thanks

[harsh orbit]

thats not working, can you give me example?

[slate swan]

That's very privacy breaching. Have you read the legal documents of Discord?

[harsh orbit]

server invite link is a privacy breaching?

[slate swan]

Creating server invites for any server your bot is in without the consent of the server owner is privacy breaching, yes.

[harsh orbit]

Consider someone adding the bot in order to spam his commands or for sabotage purposes whatever. How is this thing illegal when it is present in the docs + when the server owner adds the bot, he will agree to give the bot the ability to create a link, and therefore this is considered approval.

[slate swan]

No. Using your bot as a tool to create a backdoor for a Discord server and give yourself an invite is breaching their terms of services and privacy policy.

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may violate terms of service, or that may be deemed inappropriate, malicious, or illegal.

[harsh orbit]

you said if the server owner accept its ok so when he add the bot he accept for this permission

[slate swan]

And that has been the case for years

[slate swan]

No.

You don't seem to understand

[harsh orbit]

nice

You are very respectful

[slate swan]

The command that may use that permission can be used by people within the server. There it's obvious they can use it as they are already members of the server. You, you are just inviting yourself to a server which you don't belong to nor have been asked/invited to join.

It's not because your friend gives his keys to his home to their family that you can force their family to give you the keys of his house.

[turbid condor]

This could be against tos if the server isn't an open server

like this python server

[slate swan]

Doubt any bot has all servers open servers listed in server discovery...

Clearly wants links to every single server the bot is in. That's privacy breaching and you won't get help to breach Discord's terms.

[harsh orbit]

It makes me feel like the Discord server is a bedroom for married couples 😂

[turbid condor]

There are servers that are not for everyone like a guild server

Or a company's server

[slate swan]

If you have an issue with a server that is misusing your bot, make your bot leave it and then add it to a blacklist so that it will always leave it once the bot gets invited there. As simple as that

You don't need to be privacy breaching and join their server. You'll end up getting banned from Discord

Do it if you want, we won't help you. Then enjoy the Discord ban you'll get

[harsh orbit]

how do I know thats he do without see the server?

[slate swan]

You can log commands he's using

[turbid condor]

That's what logs are for

[slate swan]

You can log the arguments they give in your commands

You have everything you need, you don't need to join any server to know what's happening there

[turbid condor]

I'd just put a limit on commands that can be used in a second or something similar

Rather then going to a server and seeing myself

[harsh orbit]

by the way, How can I benefit from the create invite feature (for members inside the server)

[turbid condor]

I won't recommend that feature

Since some ppl don't want everyone to create an invite to a server

[harsh orbit]

everything is ilegal for you?

[turbid condor]

And even if they wanted they could give everyone perms and they can just do it by clicking a + icon

[static vine]

I am trying to make my bot to run two files together in pycharm, but when the one fileruns, the other one doesn't. What should I do?

[turbid condor]

Use cogs

[static vine]

What's that?

[harsh orbit]

You made me a gang leader and a spy just to try to learn an advantage in discord.py lol

[harsh orbit]

thats legal so help me pls

[turbid condor]

https://gist.github.com/pinheaded/ac880263084a65b8d2f769c1fa46a3d7

[static vine]

K thanks

I'll check it out

[turbid condor]

I just told u it's not needed when creating it by using the discord ui is better

And if u still want to do it u can check the link i sent

That explains everything

[harsh orbit]

bro, I just trieng to learn not use it

just Im asking you how

[mighty pilot]

Then read the docs

[harsh orbit]

aint work

[mighty pilot]

The docs work

I use them every day

[harsh orbit]

maybe I used them wrong so I asked him to give me an example and thats the answer

[turbid condor]

Instead of asking for example show what u did

And i don't think there is any need for an example if you read the info

[obsidian lily]

💀

[harsh orbit]

@bot.command()
async def invite(ctx):
   link = await ctx.guild.create_invite()
   await ctx.send(link)

[mighty pilot]

It tells you what type of data it needs and describes what it does lol

Wonder why it didn't work

[naive briar]

Capitalize guild

[turbid condor]

Read second line of the attachment i sent

[mighty pilot]

Yea ik

[turbid condor]

Welp there isn't anything that needs explaining then i think

[mighty pilot]

!d discord.TextChannel.create_invite

discord.TextChannel.create\_invite

await create_invite(*, reason=None, max_age=0, max_uses=0, temporary=False, unique=True, target_type=None, target_user=None, target_application_id=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates an instant invite from a text or voice channel.

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

[harsh orbit]

[hushed galleon]

ignore the message if it doesnt come from any guild? or alternatively check that the message guild is the same guild that has your staff roles

[young dagger]

It's from the same server

[hushed galleon]

seems odd that you'd get a User object if the message wasn't in DMs...

[young dagger]

Here is the full code:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/LIBA

[hushed galleon]

are you 100% sure its not just triggering from a DM message? and what intents do you have enabled?

[young dagger]

Yeah,

INTENTS = Intents.all()

[hushed galleon]

can you print out message.guild

[young dagger]

Yes, that is the name of the Discord server 🙂

Something is wrong with the code

[hushed galleon]

seems fine to me besides the lack of a filter for direct messages

unless its a discord or library bug...

[young dagger]

I don't need to filter of direct messages. This is only dedicated for a few specific channels

[mighty pilot]

I've run into a problem before with similar code where it wants to pull the user profile instead of the member profile

[young dagger]

What is the solution here?

[mighty pilot]

I don't remember

Let me look at something

[hushed galleon]

hmm have you changed anything about your member cache?

[mighty pilot]

I think I added an if statement for my situation, if author is a user and not member, continue

[hollow storm]

can anyone help me? I can't get this imported

[hushed galleon]

seems like py-cord syntax, were you intending to use that library instead of discord.py?

[hollow storm]

yes

[mighty pilot]

Installed discord.py and followed pycord tutorial maybe?

What did you install with pip

[young dagger]

No, how would I even do that?

[mighty pilot]

if any(role.id in [insert role id list here] for role in message.author.roles)

this worked for me

[hushed galleon]

with the member_cache_flags parameter of client, but thats probably not a problem if you didnt change anything

[hushed galleon]

the issue is message.author being a user, so this seems equivalent

[mighty pilot]

how do i get the bot object from inside a cog? i get it in the init of the cog but how to i grab that from a class later on

[hushed galleon]

pass it to your other class

as an init argument i mean

[mighty pilot]

class Stats(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot


    class statsview(discord.ui.View):
        def __init__(self, interaction:discord.Interaction, bot):
            super().__init__()
            self.bot = bot```...?

idk how to get bot into there lol

[hushed galleon]

well if you have an interaction you can use interaction.client for that

but dont define classes inside your cog, thats just unnecessary

[mighty pilot]

oooo ok forgot about that

[hushed galleon]

for example: ```py
class MyView(discord.ui.View):
def init(self, bot):
super().init()
self.bot = bot

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
def init(self, bot):
self.bot = bot

@app_commands.command()
async def my_command(self, interaction):
    view = MyView(self.bot)  # or interaction.client
    await interaction.response.send_message("Hello world!", view=view)```

[mighty pilot]

so i really only need to put commands themselves in the cog? all my buttons and views can be outside it? lol

whoops

[hushed galleon]

yup

[mighty pilot]

well, im not gonna touch the one i just finished yesterday because well... it works right now.

good to know on the next one lmao

[buoyant quail]

It's not installed by you

Here is a short example of how to use discord.py's slash commands as well as general information on them:

https://gist.github.com/AbstractUmbra/a9c188797ae194e592efe05fa129c57f

This currently covers free commands and groups at the Bot level, as well as within Cog classes.
It also includes information and gotchas relating to syncing and whatnot.

NOTE: This will be migrating to https://about.abstractumbra.dev/ as soon as I can be bothered to finish it.

What

[quick brook]

What

[slate swan]

i guess its not the best one then

[quick brook]

Are you trying to be a dpy fork shill?

[glad cradle]

no

it's just a valid point, that's a thing useful to support stateless views

[quick brook]

What uni do you attend?

[glad cradle]

why do you ask 😭

[quick brook]

I wanna learn so

[shrewd apex]

why is it relevant 💀

Hi,
when using
bot.get_guild(guildID).roles
it gets a
SequenceProxy(dict_values[<Role id=676878804001488927 name='Server Booster'>,<Role id=1027164181419532341 name='Groot'>])

how do i get the IDs of the roles in a seperate list?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.roles

property roles```
Returns a sequence of the guild’s roles in hierarchy order.

The first element of this sequence will be the lowest role in the hierarchy.

[slate swan]

you can create simple list comprehension to do that

[strong latch]

because when i iterate over it get the name instead

[slate swan]

what did you try?

cause it has Role objects

printing a role object does indeed show its name

[shrewd apex]

when u print it prolly coz of __repr__

[strong latch]

        print(key, "\n")

[slate swan]

str(x)
Returns the role’s name.

[shrewd apex]

to acess id use .id

[slate swan]

key.id

[strong latch]

oh, worked thanks a lot

[slate swan]

Likely because you haven't synced your commands

I mean that you haven't synced your commands like you did for the first time

Like you did to get your commands to show the first time

Then use your browser

To search how to sync commands with discord.py

No.

Then you haven't bothered even searching

Which is understandable as people here for some reason want to be given everything and don't search

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.sync

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.sync

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

Syncs the application commands to Discord.

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

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

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.tree

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.tree

property tree```
The command tree responsible for handling the application commands in this bot.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

That's a 2 second search jesus christ

https://google.com/search?q=discord+py+sync+slash+commands

[quick brook]

dpy is an advanced library, and you need to know advanced concepts before you can start

[slate swan]

If you don't even take the time to search for that, you won't go far

It's not meant for beginners at all

guys is it possible to make a bot run a program using the os lib?

Did you actually do it or copy pasta

Look the 2 embeds above and you know it

Apparently the library isn't that hard so shouldn't be hard to know with the 2 embeds

Learn OOP python then.

Or click the google link and there's an amazing first result which has ready to use code to copy paste, you should be used to that by now

is pycord for discord bots?

Maybe a bit more clear

yes ik im boring af

[cloud dawn]

py-cord yes.

[slate swan]

thanks

[slate swan]

https://libs.advaith.io/#python

[quick brook]

no

[slate swan]

There are quite a lot of libs for making bots

[cloud dawn]

py-cord is for Discord bots.

[slate swan]

Don't know, you have the code

All right

[quick brook]

App commands work differently from message commands, they're handled mostly on Discord's end. Discord just tells your bot when someone successfully triggers a command.
In order to do this, you need to register your commands on the command tree then tell discord they exist by syncing with tree.sync.
Commands can be registered on the tree either as a global command or as a guild-specific command, and must be synced to the same scope they are associated with in the tree.
When you sync, you are telling Discord about the commands you currently have for a particular scope.

To sync global commands: await tree.sync()
To sync guild commands: await tree.sync(guild=guild)
Guilds must be either a Guild object or a discord.Object with the guild's id.

It may help to think of the tree as a dict like this.

{
  None: [global, commands],
  guild_one: [guild, one, commands],
  guild_two: [guild, two, commands]
}

copy_global_to will copy [global, commands] and add them to the commands for the guild you pass.
This is only done locally, you must still sync.

All commands are global by default. There are a few ways to make them guild-specific:

• @app_commands.guilds() decorator on an app_commands.Group sublcass or @app_commands.command()
• guild/guilds in @tree.command()
• guild/guilds in bot.add_cog, only if the cog is a GroupCog
• guild/guilds in tree.add_command, not typically used

A common practice for syncing is to pick a specific guild for testing and run tree.copy_global_to(guild=guild) then tree.sync(guild=guild).
When you're done testing, tree.clear_commands(guild=guild) then tree.sync(guild=guild).
When you're ready to publish your commands, tree.sync().
?tag umbras sync command makes this flow easy using !sync *, !sync ^, and !sync, respectively.

?tag sync - why you shouldn't auto-sync
?tag whensync - when you should sync
?tag umbras sync command - a prebuilt sync command

Funny thing about Pycord is that

• The repository is named pycord
• The import is discord
• The package name is py-cord

Yeah maybe don't share that here....

[slate swan]

oh ok

i could send it to my friend and let him install python and i can control his pc >:)

jkjkjk i wont

And get your account banned, indeed ggs

Much success

[slate swan]

i stole that idea from no text to speech

And he stole it from already existing projects and whatever else

Not like he found out that on his own

how can i die

May be worth staying on topic and following the #rules

no

no also my mom makes cookies

so i dont need urs

nuh uh mom and grandma cooking better 🔥🔥🗣️

money dosent buy happiness

no i can buy linux atleast for free

no

@slate swan stop talking or u gay

[plain pollen]

if pycord's commands work in a similar way to discord.py's, then it should be a case of just putting the tree.sync() in some sorta on_ready function

i'm having a look at the docs rn

[slate swan]

They got way more than enough information to do it if you check above

[quick brook]

pycord shoves it on_connect

by default

[mighty pilot]

How do I pass a database cursor into a cog?

Or do I need to make a new pool for each cog

[quick brook]

I just store it as an attr on mine, and then within the constructor of the cog, get it using self.bot

[mighty pilot]

How do I store it as a bot attribute

[quick brook]

Within your ctx to create the pool, you need to just set an attr (self.pool = pool) and then you can access it from there

[mighty pilot]

Oh alr thanks

[quick brook]

Np

[slate swan]

guys is it normal to install pycord on python 3.6

i need he;p

[quick brook]

U can't

Dpy only supports python 3.8+

[slate swan]

uh oh i was trying to "hack" my vm using a discord bot

and the vm has windows 7 installed so thanks

i will now need windows 10 iso

[quick brook]

Just use linux

[slate swan]

but the script i made to "hack" the devices are windows commands

i will risk myself running it on the real machine then.

it dosent "hack" it just logs off and reboots and shuts down and alot of funny stuff

see ya

NO WAY THE SCRIPT I MADE WORKED

[hushed galleon]

if by stateless views you mean views that have static custom ids and no per-message state, that particular situation is easily supported by dpy: ```py
class MyView(discord.ui.View):
@discord.ui.button(custom_id="football", ...)
async def football(self, interaction, button):
await interaction.response.send_message("🏈 ")

@client.event
async def setup_hook():
client.add_view(MyView(timeout=None))``` dynamic custom ID views however are in design hell last i checked, so the best you can do is hack together something with on_interaction and maybe View._dispatch_item()
see also: hangman

[unkempt canyon]

bot/cogs/games/hangman.py lines 291 to 297

# Create view to handle interaction
view = HangmanView.from_match(m)
item = view.children[int(m.group('keyboard'))]
# NOTE: referenced from ViewStore.dispatch
item._refresh_state(interaction, data)
view._dispatch_item(item, interaction)
view.stop()```

Guys, Can I make a discord bot that controls a computer like when I type /runcmd it opens cmd?

[meager rock]

!d os.system , close to it

[unkempt canyon]

os.system

os.system(command)```
Execute the command (a string) in a subshell. This is implemented by calling the Standard C function `system()`, and has the same limitations. Changes to [`sys.stdin`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.stdin), etc. are not reflected in the environment of the executed command. If *command* generates any output, it will be sent to the interpreter standard output stream. The C standard does not specify the meaning of the return value of the C function, so the return value of the Python function is system-dependent.

On Unix, the return value is the exit status of the process encoded in the format specified for [`wait()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.wait).

why would u do that if thats like exposing ur computer to discord

then save the file and run the bot again

i did but even tho i have admin it says
You do not have the necessary permissions to use the purge command.

to check for permissions you should most likely use .has_permissions checks

!d discord.app_commands.checks.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.has\_permissions

@discord.app_commands.checks.has_permissions(**perms)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check) that is added that checks if the member has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the permissions given by [`discord.Interaction.permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction.permissions).

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under [`discord.Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions).

This check raises a special exception, [`MissingPermissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.MissingPermissions) that is inherited from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CheckFailure).

as it tells you

Interaction does not have author

it has .user

wdym

i mean you already used it?

member = interaction.guild.get_member(interaction.user.id)

its your code

interaction**.user**

[slate swan]

so i have to do .author?

how can I ignore the actions of all bots on the server? I have a condition that ignores only the bot itself, but not others

[slate swan]

didnt i just say it does not have it

use .user instead

if message.author == self.bot.user:
    return

[slate swan]

ight

AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'roles'```

[young dagger]

@slate swan Can you help out?

[slate swan]

You need Member object to have roles

[young dagger]

How do I do that?

[slate swan]

message.author can be either User or Member
User if its DM
Member otherwise

So i would just do if message.guild:

It would make sure its not DM message

[young dagger]

The messages was sent in a channel

[young dagger]

Sorry. Can you show me an example? I'm confused

[young dagger]

This doens't help

    if not message.guild:
        return```

Since I'm getting the error when posting in the channel

[slate swan]

Then check for types

if isinstance(message.author, discord.Member)

[young dagger]

So I have to start the code with:

@client.listen()
async def on_message(message):
    if isinstance(message.author, discord.Member):```

Why is that? I'm still confused 😄

@slate swan I changed it to:

@client.listen()
async def on_message(message: discord.Message):```
and it works fine

[slate swan]

This would make sure author is a Member

[young dagger]

And what about:

@client.listen()
async def on_message(message: discord.Message):```
Wouldn't that make sure it only triggers messages from a channel and not DMs = this would mean that there is a Member

[slate swan]

why would it?

[young dagger]

Because of message: discord.Message

[slate swan]

it changes nothing about it being only from servers

thats just a typehint

[young dagger]

Well for some reason that solve the issue as well?

[shrewd fjord]

nope, its just a typehoint

use a conditon to check if the channel instance is DMChannel

[thin raft]

message.guild is None

[shrewd fjord]

pro

[glad cradle]

Magic type hints saga

[slate swan]

you can either check if guild is None or assert for Member type too @young dagger this will make sure its not from dms

thanks will take while prolly

i js need help

Didn't even delete the old one lmao

[slate swan]

xd

bro

[mighty pilot]

The error message says the file doesn't exist. Maybe make the file exist

[shrewd fjord]

this prob shouldnt take long, its really quite easy fr, just the css the annoying part takes a bit, backend part is in our side xd

[slate swan]

bro

the file exist

[shrewd fjord]

tru

[mighty pilot]

Against tos and server rules to help you spam

[slate swan]

well im kinda worried about making it work with actual bot script

[shrewd fjord]

bot is in py?

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

ye i spam everyone

nig i need perms to do that also not that its useless.

[mighty pilot]

I want to make a bot dashboard idek where to start tbh

[slate swan]

i thought about making it how python discord does so add dashboard as dependency in docker compose but i dont really get how they share a database between or even if they do that

[shrewd fjord]

hmm, maybe connect the bot to the api, or just connect the database to the api

[slate swan]

nvm already fixed it

thanks for not helpin ig

[shrewd fjord]

[slate swan]

https://github.com/python-discord/bot/blob/main/docker-compose.yml#L58-L78

[shrewd fjord]

hmm, it starts the web server

and passes the pgsql url

[slate swan]

currently i understand it as database is on site project and they send data to it via api

at least i thought like that before i saw postgres service https://github.com/python-discord/bot/blob/main/docker-compose.yml#L12-L24

[unkempt canyon]

docker-compose.yml lines 12 to 24

postgres:
  logging : *default-logging
  restart: unless-stopped
  image: postgres:15-alpine
  environment:
    POSTGRES_DB: pysite
    POSTGRES_PASSWORD: pysite
    POSTGRES_USER: pysite
  healthcheck:
    test: ["CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready -U pysite"]
    interval: 2s
    timeout: 1s
    retries: 5```

[shrewd fjord]

you could do that too

[slate swan]

wait.

[slate swan]

does it just connect to the same database?

all credentials are the same

[shrewd fjord]

yeah, it should

wait

how can we have two connections

[slate swan]

so the site package, gets the connection url as varriable and connects to it

[shrewd fjord]

meh forgor how postgres works

[shrewd fjord]

maybe, they connect via url directly, tho its really bad i m pretty sure, because public will be able to see the headers / payload via chrometab

[slate swan]

yeah i think i get it so in order to run site package you need to aquire it with database url to connect to it

[shrewd fjord]

needs a proper authorization

[slate swan]

which python bot serves and shares it with site

[shrewd fjord]

VanityRole

[slate swan]

i dont even know where i should ask about it

[shrewd fjord]

its coded in python, but site is in idk

not python for sure

lemme check up

[slate swan]

django + some other python framewoek

[slate swan]

it is

[shrewd fjord]

oh xd

i thought it isnt in python f

[slate swan]

its python discord they were forced to

[shrewd fjord]

you could directly connect the bot object to the app

[slate swan]

?

[shrewd fjord]

;-;

i meant to say, if you make the dashboard in py, then you can easily mount the bot to the app

[slate swan]

but i aint making it in python

[shrewd fjord]

but for nextjs seems hard to me

[shrewd fjord]

[fossil trout]

Sup guys

[shrewd fjord]

sup

[young dagger]

Is there any way to not trigger the code at all if DM?

@client.listen()
async def on_message(message):
    print("Triggered")
    if isinstance(message.author, discord.Member):```

[slate swan]

no

just move the if to top

[mighty pilot]

After that isinstance check it filters out DMs

[young dagger]

I did

[young dagger]

How do I do that?

[slate swan]

 if not isinstance(message.author, discord.Member): return```

put this at first line

[young dagger]

Will that filter out the DMs?

[slate swan]

yes

[shrewd fjord]

down 🥣

[mighty pilot]

https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#isinstance

[buoyant quail]

[young dagger]

Thanks @slate swan

[slate swan]

🤫

[shrewd fjord]

[mighty pilot]

I love soup

[slate swan]

[young dagger]

I just find it a bit annoying that you can't filter out DMs the same way you can with commands and @commands.guild_only()

[mighty pilot]

Well a message is a message

You gotta make your own checks

[shrewd fjord]

commands.guild_only() is simply

if message.guild:
   return True

[young dagger]

Can I make my own decorator with the same logic?

[shrewd fjord]

yeah you can make your own check though

[buoyant quail]

of course

just put the code you used to check dm and exit the function inside the decorator

[mighty pilot]

You basically have to make a whole function for your custom decorator lol

I think the docs have an example of that to check if the person using slash command is_me

[young dagger]

Maybe this:

def is_guild_member():
    def predicate(ctx):
        if not isinstance(ctx.author, discord.Member):
            return False
        return True
    return commands.check(predicate)

@client.listen()
@is_guild_member()
async def on_message(message):
    ### Code here ###```

[shrewd fjord]

damn

btw we can use commands.check ;--; anyway lol

[buoyant quail]

        if not isinstance(ctx.author, discord.Member):
            return False
        return True

=

return isinstance(ctx.author, discord.Member)

:)

[shrewd fjord]

[mighty pilot]

From the examples online:

class NoPrivateMessages(commands.CheckFailure):
    pass

def guild_only():
    async def predicate(ctx):
        if ctx.guild is None:
            raise NoPrivateMessages('Hey no DMs!')
        return True
    return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command()
@guild_only()
async def test(ctx):
    await ctx.send('Hey this is not a DM! Nice.')

@test.error
async def test_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, NoPrivateMessages):
        await ctx.send(error)

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html?highlight=checks

[young dagger]

Interesting, thanks

[mighty pilot]

or you could sum that all up with an if-else

[young dagger]

Understood

Yeah I think I will just stick to that

[mighty pilot]

Lol

[desert kiln]

Hey uh, I'm looking to make slash commands with my current cog setup, I just don't know how to make the hybrid commands for slash and prefix commands

[slate swan]

like you would do normal prefixed command

just with .hybrid_command() decorator

[static vine]

Is it possible to run my bot 24/7 for free when my pc is turned off?

[slate swan]

for free, i doubt it you need to buy some hosting

!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.

[slate swan]

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

[mighty pilot]

There's a couple free hosting spots but its not really beginner friendly. Like oracle vm or aws vm

[desert kiln]

Diva Hosting is a good option for hosting

[mighty pilot]

Haven't tried them, actually just recently heard of them

[desert kiln]

I would provide a link, but it may be against rules so I'm not sure

[glad cradle]

tf they have a free plan

ig they're just trying to get some new clients

[slate swan]

you get not even half of cpu

[glad cradle]

yeah

[mighty pilot]

I mean... you don't need a lot for a discord bot lol

[slate swan]

everything depends on scale

[mighty pilot]

If you're looking for free hosting, I assume you're on the lower 10% of the scale

[glad cradle]

it could be good enough to start

[slate swan]

yeah for beginner might be

[glad cradle]

though we don't know the network settings

[mighty pilot]

I run mine from my phone

[glad cradle]

do they use shared IPs?

[glad cradle]

this is my code, but @tasks.loop doesnt seem to work properly, im new to this so i'd appreiate some help (2 days now)

[naive briar]

What do you mean doesnt seem to work properly?

It's not starting?

[worldly harbor]

tasks.loop just wont work like, nothing happens

my command works perfectly the channel gets created and all but the update_followers just doesnt do anything

[brazen raft]

Tasks need to be started

You should start it in setup_hook

[worldly harbor]

i see, i'll look into that

i had chatgpt help me with some of this so yeah lol

[brazen raft]

It's just update_followers.start()

But do it in bot.setup_hook (just override it and put that line in there)

[worldly harbor]

bot.setup_hook?

[brazen raft]

Ye

Define an asynchronous function that takes the bot as its sole argument (I think it goes like that) and do bot.setup_hook = that_func

[worldly harbor]

alright, thank you

[naive briar]

Nope

[brazen raft]

Ah then it doesn't take anything then

[naive briar]

You don't need to add a bot parameter

[mighty pilot]

What's the proper way to remove a persistent view

[slate swan]

I would say if you need to remove persistent view then it shouldnt be persistent

[naive briar]

Just disable it I imagine

[mighty pilot]

Yea I think I've got what I wanted now

Nope nvm

If I stop() the view, it continues to be persistent after restart

Might have to just delete it entirely lol

[mighty pilot]

Try .count()?

Message.reactions[0] should give you the first reaction on the post

Kinda running in a big circle lol

Try just if reaction.count >= 2

That should work.

[lyric sigil]

How can i make a modal ?

like this

[mighty pilot]

That's a modal not an embed

!d discord.ui.Modal

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Modal

class discord.ui.Modal(*, title=..., timeout=None, custom_id=...)```
Represents a UI modal.

This object must be inherited to create a modal popup window within discord.

New in version 2.0.

Examples...

[lyric sigil]

Giving me this error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'AppCommandOptionType' from 'discord.enums' (C:\Users\canai\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Lib\site-packages\discord\enums.py)

[mighty pilot]

Because you're apparently trying to from discord.enums import AppCommandOptionType which isn't a thing

[lyric sigil]

so i need to import discord.enums in my main.py ?

[mighty pilot]

What does that have to do with a modal

[lyric sigil]

idk

but before that my program was working very well

[mighty pilot]

Why you put that in there then lol

[mighty pilot]

Did you even read this?

[lyric sigil]

for sure

but i dont think that was the modal who makes my program not working

[mighty pilot]

This error has nothing to do with anything sent, it's you trying to import something that doesn't exist

[lyric sigil]

hold on

my program's working well on AWS

gonna check that

[slate swan]

script_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(file))
data_dir = os.path.join(script_dir, "data")

bruh now its working on aws x)

idk why its not working...

it says i dont have it

even tho its straight infornt of my eyes

[lyric sigil]

You don't have what ?

[slate swan]

the txt file

[lyric sigil]

hum

did you import it well ?

[slate swan]

yes

[lyric sigil]

is it in the same file than your bot ?

[lyric sigil]

wait

is there only your bot token inside ?

[slate swan]

yes

[lyric sigil]

okay

you are working w/ python ?

[slate swan]

yes it is python

[lyric sigil]

okay

so maybe try to put your file in .py instead of .txt

then make the changes

[slate swan]

are you sure?

it is targeting the txt

[lyric sigil]

look

[slate swan]

yes

[lyric sigil]

for me it's in .py and working very well

[umbral palm]

This relates to discord bots how exactly?

[slate swan]

ill try even im sure

its impossible

[lyric sigil]

yeah try worth a shot

[slate swan]

same thing

[umbral palm]

In the future, just open a help channel if you don't know what the topic is.

[lyric sigil]

come dm

rq

[lyric sigil]

how do i see all the packages i've installed

[slate swan]

pip list

[lyric sigil]

because when i try to run my program i have this error :

Traceback (most recent call last):

[slate swan]

upgrade discordpy to latest

[lyric sigil]

pip upgrade discord.py ?

[glad cradle]

pip install -U discord.py

[slate swan]

i have an question when i use pyinstaller

it doesnt create the txt file

and when i use the main.py

its working

#1035199133436354600 or #python-discussion

[lyric sigil]

still the same error

[slate swan]

Then you likely have multiple python installations

[lyric sigil]

no

only one and 2 interpreters

[slate swan]

Then you haven't updated it

[lyric sigil]

yes i did

[slate swan]

So that's what I said, you have 2 python installations

Uninstall Python 3.7 and just keep and use 3.11

discord.py doesn't support 3.7 anymore

[lyric sigil]

but i still have the same error

[slate swan]

Then you still haven't installed discord.py 2.x for Python 3.11

Just do python -V and see the version you're running

[lyric sigil]

done this and it's taking me to the microsoft store for installing python 3.11

[slate swan]

Get any version of python that is 3.8 or above

Then install/upgrade discord.py with python -m pip install discord.py

[lyric sigil]

same error

[lyric sigil]

[slate swan]

Print the discord.py version you have with print(discord.__version__)

[lyric sigil]

it is not doing anything

on my aws instance where it working i have 2.3.2

[slate swan]

And what is result of python -V

[lyric sigil]

Python 3.11.5

[thorny valve]

!voiceverify

[slate swan]

and what you get when you print out discord.__author__

[lyric sigil]

i can't print my program doesn't work

[slate swan]

You don't need a whole bot to print that

[lyric sigil]

Pycord Development

[lyric sigil]

2.4.1

[slate swan]

Well... do you want to use discord.py or Pycord

[lyric sigil]

discord.py ?

[slate swan]

Then uninstall Pycord?

[lyric sigil]

but idk why it's installed

[slate swan]

Well you've definitely installed it once

[lyric sigil]

and its not

PS C:\Users\canai\Desktop\bots\Partins> pip uninstall Pycord
WARNING: Skipping Pycord as it is not installed.

[slate swan]

py-cord

just run this script ```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 discord-ext-slash"

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

[lyric sigil]

and now ?

[slate swan]

and now run your bot script

[lyric sigil]

Wow

working

thx

[slate swan]

👍

[lyric sigil]

Bruh now i can't make a command for sending the modals

class Questionnaire(ui.Modal, title='Questionnaire Response'):
    name = ui.TextInput(label='Name')
    answer = ui.TextInput(label='Answer', style=discord.TextStyle.paragraph)

    async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(f'Thanks for your response, {self.name}!', ephemeral=True)

the class

And my command :

@client.tree.command(name="test1" , description="test1")
async def meme(interaction:discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message(Questionnaire())

The error :

client.process_commands(message)
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

[shrewd apex]

its send_modal and not send_message

and error is related with process_commands

await <-- add this before client.proces...

[lyric sigil]

worked but now i have only the error message : <Questionnaire timeout=None children=2>

[shrewd apex]

send the whole traceback

[lyric sigil]

no traceback

only this error

[slate swan]

No errors there

[lyric sigil]

but why it is not sending the modal ?

[slate swan]

Because you already got told

[lyric sigil]

??

[slate swan]

^

[lyric sigil]

oh i was thinking of another line

But it is not working as well
