Auto sync in on_connect (I'm not joking I actually looked that up)

The Pycord devs banned me from their server just bc they didn't include interaction checks on their Pycord support bot 😂

Show your code

[slate swan]

just send what you tried and error that you get now and someone will help

[deep dome]

how to start a thread with button interaction?

I have used this code and didn't work so i guess it is the wrong way

 async  def finalize_button_callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.channel.create_thread(name="New thread", message="Hello Thread")

[slate swan]

this method does not take message param

!d discord.ForumChannel.create_thread

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ForumChannel.create\_thread

await create_thread(*, name, auto_archive_duration=..., slowmode_delay=None, content=None, tts=False, embed=..., embeds=..., file=..., files=..., stickers=..., ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a thread in this forum.

This thread is a public thread with the initial message given. Currently in order to start a thread in this forum, the user needs [`send_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.send_messages).

You must send at least one of `content`, `embed`, `embeds`, `file`, `files`, or `view` to create a thread in a forum, since forum channels must have a starter message.

[slate swan]

you are most likely looking for content

[deep dome]

i want to start a channel thread not fourm theard

the documentation shows it takes message param

[slate swan]

ah okay this kind of thread

well then are you getting any errors if it doesnt work

[deep dome]

interaction failed unfortunately

[slate swan]

in code error ..

[deep dome]

no it didn't show any errors

[slate swan]

are you having any error handlers

[deep dome]

Thats's a good question

no 😂

[slate swan]

can you show the code

[final iron]

Share the code

Discord will show that if you don’t respond to an interaction within 3 seconds

[deep dome]

sorry but i have crashed my device

one sec

class StartThread():
def __init__(self, client):
    self.client = client

  @app_commands.command(name="start_thread")
  async def start_thread(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
      embed = discord.Embed(title="Thread creation", description="Press Button                    to start thread")
    
    async  def finalize_button_callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):
          await interaction.channel.create_thread(name="New thread",                                                                message="Hello Thread")
    finalize_button =   Button(style=discord.ButtonStyle.green,label="Finalize")
    finalize_button.callback = finalize_button_callback
    view = View()
    view.add_item(finalize_button)
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, view=view)

[slate swan]

Your indentation is wrong

Pretty much everywhere

[deep dome]

In here only bro 😂

i have never used this code block right

[glad cradle]

actually that's pep 9001

[fast musk]

Whats the error you are facing?

btw, this is a bit of a weird way to approach it. Common way is to actually subclass view, and use the decorators to add the button and register the callback

[deep dome]

I have no errors in code it just tells me interaction failed

[fast musk]

Then you likely have an error handler that is swallowing it

[glad cradle]

in the button callback you're not responding to the Interaction

that's why discord shows that error message to the user

[deep dome]

yeah when adding await interaction.response.send_message("message") it sent the message but didn't create the thread

[glad cradle]

put this first and then await interaction.channel.create_thread(...)

[deep dome]

it worked thank you

[void whale]

were do i download the python coding for making dicord bots?

[shadow acorn]

from python.org or if you're on windows you can download it off the microsoft store

[quick brook]

Nah bro just install from python.org

[quick brook]

Python.org

[shadow acorn]

I literally said that

There are two options

[quick brook]

No there is only one

Python.org since the Ms store one breaks and doesn't work

[shadow acorn]

Sure.

[quick brook]

And just to get you started

1. Before even attempting to create a discord bot, please learn python (?tag lp)
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

[shadow acorn]

Someone has a complex, yikes.

[quick brook]

What

[quick brook]

Test the Python interpreter and pip installed from the MS store and see if running Cython code works 🤷‍♀️

Chances are the C headers are not bundled

So you can't do #include <Python.h>

[shadow acorn]

Finished? My point has been more than proven.

[quick brook]

Tias

[grim echo]

does anyone know how to filter out chracters from a message before it is sent

[sick birch]

What was the exact discord message you sent?

Or is that from somewhere outside of discord?

[grim echo]

no im just trying to filter out characters from a chat response to send it to a tts

[ripe sandal]

Hi there?

[potent light]

sentence = sentence.replace("#", "") something like this.

[ripe sandal]

I have hand on experience in tts and stt.

[grim echo]

thank you this may lead to what im looking for

[grim echo]

dont need help with tts / stt , i need help with special characters being generated in text lol

[ripe sandal]

got it.
you can replace the special characters of result sentence to "".

understand?

[grim echo]

nope

[quick brook]

There is a better way

!d discord.Message.clean_content

[grim echo]

i was about to ask how can i make this to replace multiple characters instead of just one

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.clean\_content

A property that returns the content in a “cleaned up” manner. This basically means that mentions are transformed into the way the client shows it. e.g. <#id> will transform into #name.

This will also transform @everyone and @here mentions into non-mentions.

Note

This does not affect markdown. If you want to escape or remove markdown then use utils.escape_markdown() or utils.remove_markdown() respectively, along with this function.

[quick brook]

Regex

Gonna have to learn Regex to do that

[grim echo]

hmm..

[jaunty wren]

im having an issue with trying to read the custom status of a user

my current command is !activity_task @jaunty wren

@bot.command()
async def activity_task(ctx, member: discord.Member):
        print(member.activities)
        if member.activities == ():
            print("No Activity Found")
        else:
            for activity in member.activities:
                if isinstance(activity, discord.CustomActivity): 
                    print(activity)```

[grim echo]

is there a better way to do this?

https://prnt.sc/Om8cnrkQwcFp

[jaunty wren]

this is the better way

sentence = sentence.replace("#6972395", "")

u can do this

[grim echo]

ill give it a try

@jaunty wren nope

[jaunty wren]

       sentence = "i like grapes"
       keywords = ['#', '$', '%', '&']

        for keyword in keywords:
            if keyword in sentence:
                sentence = sentence.replace(keyword, "")

[potent light]

Yeah, if it's multiple you can do something like:

import re

msg = "#123#!231$#"
new_msg, n = re.subn('[#$!]', '', msg) ##add what characters you need to change here. new_msg is the str and n is the number of character changed which you don't need in this case but you have to include it because subn returns an array.
print(new_msg)```
results: `'123231'`

[grim echo]

ill give it a try

[potent light]

Replace only replaces 1 character at a time.

[jaunty wren]

yes true

[grim echo]

sweet this checks out thank you a lot

[jaunty wren]

@potent light Do you have any idea about this?

[potent light]

For if member.activities == (): you can simply do if not member.activities:

Add prints below your loop:

for activity in member.activities:
  print(activity.name, type(activity))
  if isinstance(activity, discord.CustomActivity): 
    print(activity)

and see what you get.

[potent light]

You're welcome.

[jaunty wren]

im going to test this thank you

[jaunty wren]

okay so i ran the command and i got no result

[potent light]

Nothing showing on your CMD?

[jaunty wren]

nope

can i dm?

[potent light]

yeah

[quick brook]

regex

[grim echo]

problem solved w out regex

[quick brook]

doesn't clean_content work for this?

there is a util to clean it out so pings are not effective

[grim echo]

im not using discord.py, but i texted here cus ik discord bots have to deal with messages lol

[quick brook]

pretty sure Message.clean_content does it

[grim echo]

isnt that in a discord package? im not using discord packages

[grim echo]

“discord.Message” yea im not using discord packages

[shrewd apex]

ur using plain discord api then? no libraries like discord.py?

[bitter knoll]

How can I add akinator in my bot

[quick brook]

1. Know how it works. Do some research on how that game works, and prototype an simple python game or hell even play with some friends
2. Once you have your prototype and plans, implement it, and test it to make sure it works
3. Ask questions or for help on the discord.py server or in #1035199133436354600 if you are stuck on parts or if you want to clarify parts that you are unsure of

My biggest tip is with prototyping, your best friend are quite literally a piece of paper and a writing instrument. In fact, whenever I'm designing features, I always jot my ideas down on somewhere (Case and point, just like the current feature that i'm working on). A game like Akinator are just simple steps for the game loop, and rules that you have to take account in. I would highly recommend not to directly copy the feature, but base it off. Play around with it and add your own quirks to it that make it unique compared to others

If you need help on implementing the discord portion, hop on to the discord.py server and ask questions and folks will be able to help you (I have provided a link if you need it)

https://discord.gg/r3sSKJJ

[shrewd apex]

!pypi akinator

[unkempt canyon]

akinator v1.1.1

An API wrapper for Akinator.

[shrewd apex]

make sure to use the asynchronous version

[quick brook]

that package essentially a web scraper so if you wanted to, you could use it

I would personally do it from scratch

[shrewd apex]

i mean if he could do it from scratch he wouldn't have asked here it would take somw decent amt of skills to do it from scratch in maths and programming iirc akinator uses bayes theorem

[quick brook]

Formatting code on discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

[vale wing]

Their lib uses v9 prob 😔

Actually it's because messages containing bot's mention have content available regardless of mc intent

[vale wing]

Print is like first thing you learn in python

[shrewd apex]

man hit you with the thinking

[cold oyster]

How do I make a global error handler?

[naive briar]

!d discord.on_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_error

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

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

Note

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

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

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

[sage otter]

if you're using the commands framework which is looks like you are:

Oh I don't think you got what I meant, what I really wanted to say is if anyone freelanced their bot making services to make money from here.

[hasty pike]

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

[rotund creek]

Oh I see.

[sage otter]

you dont need to. discord.py already handles button internals like that for you

anything that you want to do when its pressed can be added in its associated callback

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.ui.View.wait

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.wait

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

Waits until the view has finished interacting.

A view is considered finished when [`stop()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View.stop) is called or it times out.

[shrewd fjord]

u can use this :3

good for making generic views / buttons

[sage otter]

im not sure if this is what he wants

[shrewd fjord]

[unkempt canyon]

aoku v2.3.0

The package for writing your own discord bot

[sage otter]

he asked earlier if that was such thing called as "button clicked" event that he can use for Bot.wait_for() so hes trying to listen to for when the button is clicked to do something with it. views already do all of that for you as far as listening for button clicks. following execution is done within the buttons callback(which the library will also call for you as well when the button is clicked)

[shrewd fjord]

i thought he maybe wanted something similar like wait_for which is can be done by using view.wait() and stop the view when button is clicked dunno why he wants like that though, he can just use the button callback

hmm my bad xd

[hasty pike]

Let's just say in simple words i have 3 buttons they have alot of functions inside but only 1 function is different so i just thought maybe i could use that listener and use if custom id statement when it comes to that function

[sage otter]

the different code for that single button that’s also different from the others would still be executed in the button's callback

!d discord.ui.Button.callback

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button.callback

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

The callback associated with this UI item.

This can be overridden by subclasses.

!d discord.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.dynamic\_cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown(cooldown, type)```
A decorator that adds a dynamic cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command)

This differs from [`cooldown()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.cooldown) in that it takes a function that accepts a single parameter of type [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context) and must return a [`Cooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Cooldown) or `None`. If `None` is returned then that cooldown is effectively bypassed.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType).

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown) is triggered in [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error) and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

This differs from [`cooldown()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api/checks.html#disnake.ext.commands.cooldown) in that it takes a function that accepts a single parameter of type [`disnake.Message`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api/messages.html#disnake.Message) and must return a [`Cooldown`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api/checks.html#disnake.ext.commands.Cooldown) or `None`. If `None` is returned then that cooldown is effectively bypassed.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api/checks.html#disnake.ext.commands.BucketType).

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api/exceptions.html#disnake.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown) is triggered in [`on_command_error()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api/events.html#disnake.ext.commands.on_command_error) and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

New in version 2.0.

@meager orchid

[loud junco]

but what pleasure do u get from building bot with gpt 😭

[meager orchid]

Thank you

[meager orchid]

It's not that I'm creating a bot via GPT, it's more like I'm trying to find out what I don't know. And when it doesn't work, I go to github or forums for help. And so I try to write a bot myself and study documentation

[turbid condor]

Try debugging a code made with gpt and you'll see the pleasure

[vale wing]

Antipleasure

[loud junco]

https://education.github.com/pack#offers
oh my this is too much which is the best host

[vale wing]

I got my application denied cause of billing info

Idk what I put there, apparently something idiotic for 0$ purchase

[loud junco]

just need to put in ur full irl name there
i got mine approved

still have to wait tho

[robust fulcrum]

Guys is azure cloud a good service for hosting discord bot?

[quick brook]

no

Henzter is

The major issue with Azure is that it's entirely useless in the scope of a dbot unless you use services that are exclusively tied with Azure (say you need to use MSSQL for instance). This is also same for AWS and GCP. The other major issue is that you are paying huge sums of money. I had $100 free azure credits and within 3 weeks of just running my discord bot on an container instance, I already broke past that $100 free credit range. Once that free credit is over, now azure has you on the hook, and can shut down your service at any moment without notice

[robust fulcrum]

We can't use AWS too if we are student

[quick brook]

you can't

this is why I strongly recommend purchasing an server from an VPS provider. My pick is Henzter, which is where my production bot is running as of now. Good quality service, strong background checks and good provider

[robust fulcrum]

💳

[quick brook]

but... if you are a student, then look into the GH student developer pack

[robust fulcrum]

They all need a credit card tf

[quick brook]

that offers $200 free digitalocean credits for free for 1 year if you are a student

[robust fulcrum]

They dumb tbh why would a student have a credit card , lol

[shell apex]

Thats just in the context of the openai request, simple change to take it out. On its own openai just writes the nickname of who its transcribing

[quick brook]

that is for verification. you dont need an credit card, but a debit card will work

[robust fulcrum]

I dont have any sadly

[quick brook]

i've traditionally used my debit card and it went through

[quick brook]

then GL. Either pay up, self host, or use the student deals available

those are the three options you have

[shell apex]

Does it just need a student email?

[quick brook]

yes

[shell apex]

Awesome thanks

[quick brook]

you will also need an valid proof of education

so just send them like a report card or your student id, and it should be fine

[shell apex]

Perfect

[robust fulcrum]

Most GitHub education features aren't used by students like digital ocean, etc

[quick brook]

well the DO deal is there

use it while you can

[robust fulcrum]

Wdym by DO?

[harsh orbit]

how to get embed message

[quick brook]

DigitalOcean

[robust fulcrum]

Thats needs a credit card

[quick brook]

then if you dont have it, you are essentially locked out

it's used for verfication purposes

[slate swan]

embed message?

[robust fulcrum]

Idk why they need credit card even I they don't need it

There are multiple other methods for verification

[slate swan]

so you dont create 100 accounts

[quick brook]

again, verfication. AWS requires it. Azure also, GCP as well

[slate swan]

if you have to verify by card you can only have one account

cause you can have 1 card most likely

[quick brook]

as mentioned, it's to prevent mass spam attacks

[robust fulcrum]

Azure didn't ask me for credit card

[harsh orbit]

I have bot.wait_for and when the message sent it send it to me but when the message have an embed the bot tell me the message is empty

[quick brook]

bc Azure did an SSO so it already knows from your school that you are a valid student

[slate swan]

code?

[robust fulcrum]

Wdym by sso?

[quick brook]

Single Sign On

[robust fulcrum]

Oh

[harsh orbit]

message = await bot.wait_for ....
await channel.send(message)

Something like this

[robust fulcrum]

Then why can't digital ocean?

[quick brook]

they aren't mircosoft and they dont work with the educational system to provide it

[slate swan]

and it sends empty message or what

[harsh orbit]

say error

[quick brook]

their main consumers are actually not students

[harsh orbit]

mean it cant send an empty message

[slate swan]

did you try printing it?

[robust fulcrum]

I can't sadly use any benefit of GitHub education then

[harsh orbit]

I will try now and show the resault

[quick brook]

then your next best option would be to self host using a raspberry pi or a spare pc that you can turn into a server

and then after that, there is none

[slate swan]

I cant find a tut online that works

can someone coach me through buidling a discord bot? Big ask i know aha

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

jesus christ that was quick

[quick brook]

i swear you don't need a third-party tutorial

[slate swan]

but im just as confdused when i meet this

[slate swan]

example code snippets how to do things

[quick brook]

....

1. Before even attempting to create a discord bot, please learn python (?tag lp)
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

[slate swan]

i would recommend checking the basic_bot.py

[slate swan]

I know python fine, the whole thing just hurts my brain abt discord bots

[quick brook]

then how much do you know?

[slate swan]

Enough for basics, on a scale of one to ten, 4 or 5

[robust fulcrum]

We can , but what's your experience with python?

[quick brook]

that's pretty weak

[robust fulcrum]

Have you studied async programming?

[slate swan]

thanks 👍

[slate swan]

you need topics like async await syntax, OOP and decorators to really understand what you are doing

[slate swan]

erm cant say i have particularly

i mean if you understand OOP and async/await syntax you'll probs be fine

ill get learning 🙂

*cries*

[quick brook]

- Primitive data types
- Operators
- Data structures
- Importing
- Variables, namespace and scope
- String formatting
- OOP
- Control flow
- Exception handling
- Function definitions
- Classes, objects, attributes and methods
- Console usage, interpreters and environments
- Decorators

Useful to know:
- Asyncio basics
- What is blocking?
- Logging
- knowing how to read docs properly
``` for more details see <https://gist.github.com/scragly/095b5278a354d46e86f02d643fc3d64b#required-knowledge>

[robust fulcrum]

Then you should learn and next you are ready to go! Best of luck

[quick brook]

here are the concepts you need to know btw

[slate swan]

Thankyou all!

[robust fulcrum]

Tbh discord bot building is boring

[slate swan]

My coding expertise lies in HTML/CSS/(a bit of)JS

[quick brook]

you'll also want to include SQL as well

[slate swan]

kms

keep myself safe

[slate swan]

only js from these is actually programming 🤫

😭

[robust fulcrum]

Ye lol

[slate swan]

it gets that way after the first 3-4

if you dont have end goal in a bot development never ends

I just need aa basic one that has embeds tbh not epic features

[robust fulcrum]

Actually we don't need to build discord bots as mostly bots exist with better features, making for own learning is another topic

[shell apex]

^^^^^^^

The sad truth

[slate swan]

surely css is almost coding

[shell apex]

https://github.com/giplgwm/Discord_Transcriber_Bot

[harsh orbit]

thats when I printed the object but when I print the content its print empty raw

[robust fulcrum]

the blogs on Google mostly misguide people about discord bots

Especially hosting bot on replit

[slate swan]

oh my days

[slate swan]

then you have message_content disabled

every tut on google

said replit

[robust fulcrum]

Mine too lol

I did that before 1 year

[slate swan]

dont use replit for hosting a bot

[harsh orbit]

cuz thats embed
if the message have text it will print it

[robust fulcrum]

I left making discord bots after that

[slate swan]

embed is not under content

[robust fulcrum]

🤣

[slate swan]

!d discord.Message.embeds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.embeds

A list of embeds the message has. If Intents.message_content is not enabled this will always be an empty list unless the bot is mentioned or the message is a direct message.

[slate swan]

even the workshop lead in our college classes had us use a web-based IDE and idk why

me and my buddy refused 🥴

[robust fulcrum]

Thats fine

[naive briar]

[harsh orbit]

this show this
[<discord.embeds.Embed object at 0x0000026F90CAD5A0>]

[naive briar]

And?

[slate swan]

yes its a list of Embed objects

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

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

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

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

New in version 2.0.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

New in version 2.0...

[slate swan]

you can get whatever you want from it

[robust fulcrum]

Btw can we have some chat in #ot0-psvm’s-eternal-disapproval ?

[slate swan]

its not coding

[harsh orbit]

can you give me example please?

[slate swan]

why not 😡

[robust fulcrum]

Thats designing:

[slate swan]

i don't see any use for them in the context of teaching whatsoever though
but we're getting off-topic probs

[slate swan]

google says its not

so its true

[naive briar]

I wonder why I can't create an OS using CSS

[robust fulcrum]

Ye lol , anyway mostly people don't use replit for what it is meant for

[slate swan]

example of what

stop editing inspect element!!!!

jokes aha

[robust fulcrum]

You can but only beautiful fruit that is hollow inside

[slate swan]

blud knows inspecting elements

[robust fulcrum]

😂

[harsh orbit]

how to get the anything from embed

when I get it in wait_for

[naive briar]

It's just accessing attributes like any other objects

[slate swan]

embed.some_cool_attribute ?

[harsh orbit]

    await ctx.send(message.embeds)

I have this

[robust fulcrum]

You can log the attributes and see?

[harsh orbit]

how to get the content from this

[naive briar]

Get an embed of the list then get something from the embed 🤷

[slate swan]

i dont know what you mean embed content but you just access attrubute on embed object

[shell apex]

lel i got copilot just so i could ask it this one question and its trolling me so i'll ask here instead. I have

    step of process
  else
    break```
In front of every step (4 steps) of this loop, and because these steps can take considerable time (or waste considerable time if we let any go after it should stop) we have to recheck the condition between each step, since the stop flag could be thrown at any point and we want the loop broken before any more statements execute

[robust fulcrum]

If you don't know then learn?

[shell apex]

thats why im asking...

[robust fulcrum]

Learn and come here, we will surely help you but you should know the basics of async , etc many topics

[naive briar]

The last two if statements are useless

If the first one fails, it will break the loop before those two are executed

[shell apex]

Unfortunately the code after the first one can take a long time and the flag can change between then (and usually will) so those extra if statements save time

[shell apex]

The problem is mainly the asyncio.sleep() separating the code (the 15 seconds to give it time to record a batch of audio, and then 2 seconds to give it processing time after) that we do not want to execute if the flag changes. But if we only check the flag at the beginning of the loop all these sleeps will execute before the final stop is called and the bot leaves, making it feel unresponsive. to get around this i put a check before each step, but it seems ugly and not the best way.

[robust fulcrum]

ye i know , sorry i misunderstood,i thought you mean you don't know

i am really sorry for it

[shell apex]

I apologize too, i ate some breakfast and it wasnt that big of a deal lol😆. i just was a bit frustrated after trying to explain to copilot why it wasn't fixing anything by making 2 identical loops lol

[shell apex]

Im being dumb, this is fine it just shouldnt have the breaks anywhere so that the stop is still called, the sleeps just need to be skipped over if we exit early. it looked bad at first so i felt like i was doing something wrong

[shell apex]

better

[serene dawn]

guys

I'm trying to start my journey learning how to make discord bots, however when I go into the console and type pip install discord, it goes through and tries to download it, but then at the end get's this error.

here, take a look.

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/KHMA

[sage otter]

it says your error like 4-5 different times

error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with "Microsoft C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

[final iron]

People when the extremely new python version doesn’t work perfectly: 😱

Downgrade to 3.11, you don’t need 3.12

[final iron]

aiohttp is just broken with 3.12

People need to downgrade and wait until the lib is updated

[rugged shadow]

how are you sure that 3.12 is the problem?

[sage otter]

because its just as he said

aiohttp doesnt support 3.12

[final iron]

Because there have been an insane amount of bug reports, and all the people are using 3.12

What does your bot say

[sage otter]

probably says coroutine object at some random memory spot

cuz he didnt await it

[final iron]

Oh yeah

[sage otter]

or that

you need to disable the internal help cmd

set help_command to None

when you create your bot object

[final iron]

Discord.py creates a help command automatically

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.remove_command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.remove\_command

remove_command(name, /)```
Remove a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command) from the internal list of commands.

This could also be used as a way to remove aliases.

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

[final iron]

Or

Pretty sure there’s a help_command arg in your Bot() constructor

[sage otter]

personally i like to set it to None on startup when you initialize your bot class

[final iron]

You can just set that to None

[naive briar]

In the bot's constructor, set help_command to None

[sage otter]

its like i dont speak english or sum when i say these things

[final iron]

No harm in clarifying things

[sage otter]

not at all.

[worn violet]

Have u made discord bots

[sage otter]

only on certain days

did you ever even fix this

by awaiting the ctx.send()

as a tip, saying "its not working" or anything along those lines isnt a very productive phrase. generally, in help channels like this, you want to be as precise as you can.

if you have any errors for example, those should be posted here as well with your issue

fair enough

[quick gust]

💀

[rugged shadow]

then practically you didn't ask for help

[burnt coral]

seriously.. you join an online community full of enthusiastic developers eager to help others on their spare time and your response is this when you're suggested to be more pedantic and precise when asking for help? grow up.

[final iron]

You’re infinitely more likely to get help by describing the issue, than just saying it doesn’t work

This is explicitly listed in the help guide

this means that view never got created

meaning none of the ifs were invoked

[white citrus]

But how? button_one_label is always filled

[slate swan]

i dont know its your code. try printing it out and seeing whats here thats how you debug

In this case, the first if would have to take effect, since button_two_label and button_three_label are empty

hello everyone

i want to make a Welcomer command, what can i do ?

my code is here :

  channel = guild.get_channel(1159111020040683564)
  await channel.send(f"Hi {member.mention}, Welcome to the server!")

the bot is online but don't respond

should i make something like member = ...

ping me if you respond please

[final iron]

!d discord.on_guild_join

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

[final iron]

Wrong event

[eternal sparrow]

is the code right, now ? @final iron

[final iron]

No

on_join doesn’t exist, it’s not an event

!d discord.on_member_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_join

You either want this event, or on_member_join

[eternal sparrow]

i don't understand very well

sorry

It’s pretty basic

Not sure what else to explain tbh

[eternal sparrow]

idk too

[final iron]

I’d read the docs and look at some examples if you’re still confused

[eternal sparrow]

i am a begginer + an idiot

@event```
A decorator that registers an event to listen to.

You can find more info about the events on the [documentation below](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events).

The events must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine), if not, [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError) is raised.

how to make that if I restarted the project of the bot the buttons still working

cuz it broke when I restart it

[final iron]

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

[harsh orbit]

[final iron]

How about you actually go through the example

You obviously haven’t

[harsh orbit]

._.

how I knew that is same as my button?

[final iron]

It’s not

It’s not the same lmao

Go through and actually read the examples

[harsh orbit]

Im not finding any thing diffrent than my way
also I tried to run this code and it gives error lol

you can just tell me the way without this

[final iron]

Literally read the comments

They literally explain it lmfao

[final iron]

Okay sure, where’s your custom ID?

That’s what I thought lol

Read over it carefully

Your code is not the same as the example

You’re missing key parts that the comments in the example explain

this button is right for you?

[final iron]

Considering it’s copied from the example, yes

when I reset the project it broke

await ctx.send(view=PersistentView())

[final iron]

So for the third time, read over the example

This is my final time saying this

@final iron

[final iron]

Share the full traceback

Also, you're showing the wrong command

[slate swan]

yo

[final iron]

You used watch and you're showing addrole

[slate swan]

wym

the role is watch

a aliases is gr ?

my name is watch

[final iron]

Oh

Anyway, share the traceback

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role)s.

You must have [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles) to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role)s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[final iron]

Also add_roles takes a snowflake and you're passing in a string so that won't work

[slate swan]

oi

[final iron]

That's probably the issue

[slate swan]

imma try that rn

same error

@final iron

[final iron]

What’s the code

[slate swan]

wym like the bot?

Well this changes nothing

FIXXED IT

W MAN THANK U!

[naive briar]

Prefix or slash commands?

See: my bot’s commands are not showing up!

Call the sync method of the command tree

[quick brook]

did you sync?

[naive briar]

!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.

[quick brook]

in a manual sync comamnd

just as a primer:

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

you should use a sync command such as this one:

Moved the massive codeblock to a blog post.

Enjoy!

did you read it and understand how that sync command works?

[naive briar]

That comes out as annoying

[quick brook]

i'll handle this one

then do you know how to make commands?

you can put it in a cog or where your commands go

[naive briar]

Where you want your commands to be synced, preferably not blind automation

[quick brook]

in your bot file...

i'd recommend looking at the basic examples on the gh repo in order to figure it out

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

[naive briar]

Put what where?

[quick brook]

in a prefixed command

https://about.abstractumbra.dev/discord.py/2023/01/29/sync-command-example.html you can quite literally copy and paste it into your cog or in your main file where you are running the bot

!help for example

the point is that you need to make a prefixed command in order to sync slash commands

[naive briar]

You can't sync in slash commands if you've never synced before

[quick brook]

Auto Syncing Sucks

you manually sync with a prefixed command using the command that I gave you eariler

The reason why auto syncing sucks is that you send unneeded API requests to discord, as slash commands are handled by discord directly. In order to get those commands to discord, you do something called syncing. And the way you do the syncing is by making a prefixed command in order to sync those, since you can't sync slash commands with a slash command for the first time

i answered this multiple times for you

you will have to swap out discord.Client for commands.Bot instead

commands.Bot subclasses from discord.Client, plus gives you a tree already to work with (can be accessed from commands.Bot.tree)

[naive briar]

If it's poorly done, that is

[quick brook]

pretty much all that do that are poorly done

[naive briar]

There's a reason why Python have if-statements

[quick brook]

there is a reason why you dont do it in the first place

[naive briar]

And what is it?

[quick brook]

dont even auto sync in the first place

[naive briar]

That's why you just need to check first

[quick brook]

you dont

if you dont do it entirely in the first place, then why need a check?

i fail to understand your argument here

[naive briar]

And what's the reason not to do it?

[quick brook]

The reason why auto syncing sucks is that you send unneeded API requests to discord, which results in ratelimits being reached quickly

[naive briar]

I'd just store previous app commands info in a file and check the current one against it, to see if they're different or not

[quick brook]

Sync when you...

• Basic
  • Added/Removed a command
  • Added/Removed autocomplete (decorator, transformer)
  • Added/Removed an argument
  • Added/Modified/Removed locale strings
  • Converted the global/guild command to a guild/global command
• Modify
  • Changed a command's...
    • name (name= kwarg, function name)
    • description (description= kwarg, docstring)
  • Changed an argument's...
    • name (rename decorator, param name)
    • choices (Literal, choices decorator, enum type)
    • description (describe decorator, docstring)
    • type (arg: str str is the type here)
• Permissions
  • Added/Modified permissions:
    • default_permissions (decorator, kwarg)
    • nsfw (kwarg)
  • Added/Modified contexts:
    • guild_only (decorator, kwarg)
    • Contexts ( https://discord.com/channels/336642139381301249/1107116103429279764 ):
      • allowed_contexts (kwarg)
      • dm_only decorator, kwarg)
      • private_channel_only decorator, kwarg)

Do not sync when you...

• Changed anything in the command/autcomplete function's body (after the async def (): part)
• Added/Modified/Removed library side checks:
  • (@)app_commands.checks...
  • (@)commands...(.check)
  • @app_commands.checks.(dynamic_)cooldown(...)

This is the same for hybrid app commands

here is a list of when you need to sync

[naive briar]

All that can be automated

[quick brook]

this is the case where it's better to trade off automation with control. With umbras sync command, you gain control on how you sync, and if you screw up (say synced globally and then synced to guild, and now you have duplicate commands), that can be fixed easily with !sync ^

[naive briar]

And? I just said ...check the current one against it, to see if they're different or not, if they're different, then sync

[quick brook]

bot.command

[naive briar]

In what case would you sync to a single guild?

[quick brook]

then how are you going to detect those changes in the first place

[quick brook]

if you have a bot that you only want commands to show up to on one guild

[naive briar]

if-statements 🤷

[quick brook]

correct. then you can use @bot.command

[quick brook]

then what are the conditions for those if statements?

are you going to store the changes on every single time you start the bot?

[naive briar]

Information of the previous - current, I just said it all

[final iron]

command_prefix is requred iirc

!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.

[quick brook]

i fail to see your point here

[naive briar]

If they were different, yes? And are you gonna have to call a command to sync everytime you change a single char in a command's description?

[quick brook]

yes you would sync manually even there is one char added

you would have to do that anyways

[naive briar]

I don't think you've even tried to

[quick brook]

i have. I've used Pycord since the v2 beta days, and dpy since the v1 days

i know what it means to auto sync

[naive briar]

How is that relevant here?

[quick brook]

point is, i know what it means to do both auto and manual sync

[naive briar]

And what is wrong with conditional auto syncs?

[quick brook]

more bulk than it needs. plus there is no good way to detect the changes. you end up having to store these changes somewhere and spend time trying to detect the changes

[naive briar]

That is just a bit more start-up time

[quick brook]

yea "a bit" of blocking time

[naive briar]

How many commands do you have to think that difference comparison will take that long?

[quick brook]

30-75

[naive briar]

Who will ever need that many?

[quick brook]

have you seen my code? just one of my smaller bots has 30 commands in total

[naive briar]

That is still just more start-up time

[quick brook]

time it

[naive briar]

Sure would

[quick brook]

make a bot that has 100 commands, and bring me the statical data

geometric mean included

[naive briar]

No one make a bot with that many commands, unless you make a command for every choice instead of using choices

[quick brook]

point is, you arguing your position is useless here. as a result, this has proven that you are unworthy of helping others in this field

[naive briar]

How is that?

All I see here is just you refusing to accept a little thing

[quick brook]

i've gave my reasoning with evidence to back it up and you are trying to convince me to auto sync

you gave 0 evidence to back yourself up

[naive briar]

Evidence of?

[quick brook]

why not to auto sync

i presented it all

you presented none

[naive briar]

I already told you, conditional auto sync, that doesn't sync every time blindly

[slate swan]

tbh I just have an auto-sync in setup hook and quote it out if i don't need it

[quick brook]

that's still considered auto syncing

every single time you restart your bot, even with no changes you are still sending wasteful api requests to discord

[slate swan]

which is why I called it an auto-sync

read my message properly lol

[quick brook]

understood. did not read the last part, which is my mistake

you basically can't convince me unless there is evidence (and proper evidence) that conclude your thesis. statements such as conditional auto syncing are still at the very end, opinions

[naive briar]

And what kind of evidence?

[quick brook]

i've said enough

[naive briar]

You have no evidence against conditional auto syncs, just blind ones

That I agree

[quick brook]

you are getting there. it should be @bot.commands()

the ()

the @bot.commands doesn't have () at the end

ok you don't really need message starts with when working with prefixed commands. dpy handles it for you

in your case, the prefix is *

basically like that

what's the command looking like right now?

no you dont need to

[final iron]

bot.command() is a decorator

[quick brook]

after that, paste in the command found here. Adjust the code as you need:

from typing import Literal, Optional

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

@bot.command()
@commands.guild_only()
@commands.is_owner()
async def sync(ctx: commands.Context, guilds: commands.Greedy[discord.Object], spec: Optional[Literal["~", "*", "^"]] = None) -> None:
    if not guilds:
        if spec == "~":
            synced = await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
        elif spec == "*":
            ctx.bot.tree.copy_global_to(guild=ctx.guild)
            synced = await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
        elif spec == "^":
            ctx.bot.tree.clear_commands(guild=ctx.guild)
            await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=ctx.guild)
            synced = []
        else:
            synced = await ctx.bot.tree.sync()

        await ctx.send(
            f"Synced {len(synced)} commands {'globally' if spec is None else 'to the current guild.'}"
        )
        return

    ret = 0
    for guild in guilds:
        try:
            await ctx.bot.tree.sync(guild=guild)
        except discord.HTTPException:
            pass
        else:
            ret += 1

    await ctx.send(f"Synced the tree to {ret}/{len(guilds)}.")

dont worry about the content of the command itself

essentially the way you use this command is like this:

*sync - Globally sync (meaning that on every server, the command is visible and usable) to Discord

*sync ~ - Takes all of the commands that your bot has in your server, and then syncs it to that guild

*sync * - Copies the global commands and syncs it into your bot

*sync ^ - Clears out any guild commands and resyncs. This is used if you have duplicate slash commands showing up

*sync 123 - Syncs all of the commands to the given guild id. Replace 123 with the guild id that you want to sync to

i'd start off with *sync 123 (replace 123 with your guild id), and then wait a bit for them to show up

it might take some time

yes i've done it a ton of times

up to 45 seconds or so. i've not timed it so it may take longer or shorter for you

there isn't a set time for that

[sick birch]

<@&831776746206265384>

[slate swan]

Where did you define tree since you're not using self. prefix

And don't sync commands in on_ready event

Ah yeah and since you're using discord.Client and not discord.ext.commands.Bot - you can't use slash commands

[final iron]

You can still use app commands with discord.Client

!d discord.Client

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client

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

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

New in version 2.0.

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

[final iron]

Yeah you can, you just have to create the command tree yourself

With Bot it’s automatically created

[slate swan]

Yeah that's why I said where tree is defined if they aren't using self.tree which is not possible on a client

[fading granite]

hi. i want to find out the total number of threads in a particular forum channel. i tried using len(forum.threads) but it only returned the open ones. there are a lot of archived threads. how do i count them too?

[slate swan]

Don't do these things in on_ready

[turbid condor]

!d discord.on_ready

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_ready

discord.on_ready()```
Called when the client is done preparing the data received from Discord. Usually after login is successful and the [`Client.guilds`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.guilds) and co. are filled up.

Warning

This function is not guaranteed to be the first event called. Likewise, this function is **not** guaranteed to only be called once. This library implements reconnection logic and thus will end up calling this event whenever a RESUME request fails.

To make buttons

[sage otter]

but like

dpy already has that

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

you don’t need third parties anymore.

i honestly don’t know why people also still use forks anymore tbh

[cold oyster]

Huh?

@sage otter wdym

[slate swan]

You don't need it to make buttons, use libraries like discord.py

[cold oyster]

I wanna make it button, Its a tickets bot

[slate swan]

Again, use discord.py or whatever other library you're using

discord-components is deprecated and should not be used.

[cold oyster]

ohh alr

Hey anyone wanna work in a joint discord bot project? (I am a beginner with enough information i think)

[turbid condor]

state the details

[rough shuttle]

Tbh I didn't even decide what I am gonna make

😭

i am thinking of deciding it with my partner

[turbid condor]

welp that's the first thing you should come up with

and then tell your idea if anyone interested he or she will tell you

[rough shuttle]

oh okay

but i clicked ur OF link, wtf that

[turbid condor]

idk

[rough shuttle]

okay

[turbid condor]

tho why u want to make a discord bot?

like your motive to? Is it to test out your knowledge? or something else

[rough shuttle]

just to experience teamwork and to test out my knowledge with working in a team

and maybe put it up on public for extra cash if the project goes successful

and also put it in my porto for future purposes

sorry for late replies, i had to go somewhere

[turbid condor]

welp for cash purposes you will need to think of something unique

[vale wing]

Oh heck monetisation is harder than you think

[turbid condor]

coming up with something unique is even harder

[vale wing]

As for teamwork I can just invite you to bobux bot that's pretty much teamwork

[rough shuttle]

what's bobux bot

[vale wing]

ur bot..?

[vale wing]

I am project manager, bot is owned by team

[rough shuttle]

oh

is there any way I can join the team?

[vale wing]

Bro why tf does it look like I am promoting bot

[turbid condor]

seems intetresting but disnake

[vale wing]

Yeah sure

I will dm you details if interested

[rough shuttle]

hit me up :D

[vale wing]

Yeah disnake ☺️

Best fork

Except we highly altered views and modals implementation

[turbid condor]

welp i don't know but i feel comfortable with dpy

[rough shuttle]

I only know discord py 😭

i hope its okay, i am willing to learn

disnake

[glad cradle]

it's pretty much the same as d.py but better

[shrewd fjord]

i dunno why people mostly hate on their parents, talking about in python library cases not irl

[glad cradle]

what 🧐

[turbid condor]

he meant that disnake is a fork of dpy in a sense calling dpy parent of disnake

tho in the end it depends on what you feel comfortable with

[sage otter]

no one typically hates on dpy. moreover they more so blame the developer for his past absence from development.

dpy isn’t bad. its certainly better than most of the forks that people made to replace it

[glad cradle]

tho you hate your parents if they're bad

[glad cradle]

i mean have you actually reviewed 90% of all the code of the forks?

[sage otter]

not really.

[glad cradle]

So what makes you think that

[sage otter]

a lot of how some of them did new implementations. for example novus/nextcord(i think). the interactions implementation they did is very obsolete and generally "bad". for example, dispatching internal events to listen to as far as buttons clicks and select menu selections

nextcord and pycord has already have both already had their fair share of bad code reviews

[glad cradle]

why dispatching events is a bad thing?

[sage otter]

why would i also need to view 90% of the code when 90% is still written by the original developer

[glad cradle]

you can't even state that since you haven't actually looked at the code

[sage otter]

they're forks. the general code base will stay relatively the same from the parent library

most of them weren’t made to change what danny did. moreso to add on and continue what he left

[glad cradle]

Since I only know Disnake as Fork I will only talk about that, I can assure you that Disnake has changed more than the 50% of the code base

[sage otter]

notice how i didn’t mention disnake in my initial statement as well as how i didn’t mention all of the forks but rather most of them

[glad cradle]

you said forks generally, disnake is a fork, therefore you're also talking about it

[sage otter]

not really. what i said is more of a general response to this.

i don’t really hate on disnake

from what i hear it’s an ok alternative to the actual library

however i never really got into it because i stuck with the main library for my own reasons

[shrewd fjord]

i totally said not irl

[velvet sigil]

anyone here to help related discord bots

[naive briar]

Uh, yeah, this is #discord-bots

[burnt coral]

dpy has been around for a long time and has developed a significant community.. the number of contributors and the maturity of their present implementation is a no-brainer when compared to dpy forks (most of which were forked while danny was absent)

[old vine]

hey..

can someone help me?

[naive briar]

With?

[old vine]

ok

this might be simple but i am kinda still stuck with it

yk a forum post right

[naive briar]

Yes

[old vine]

i am trying to make a slash command that like locks a forum post at a certain time and unlock it at a certain time... i know how to do the lock and unlock. i am comfused on how to input the forum post like a normal text channel

[naive briar]

#1160185918733426731

[old vine]

cuz if it was text channel, i could just do this

but for forum, i can't select a post

[naive briar]

I don't think you can

[old vine]

yea thats the thing

how do i do it now?

[naive briar]

You can resort to the threads' IDs or make the command lock/unlock the thread it was called in

[old vine]

oh

how do i do the first one?

[naive briar]

By threads, I mean the forum posts

[old vine]

yea ik

[naive briar]

Make the command accept the thread's ID and work with it as you wish

[loud junco]

finally got my github student dev pack
which is the best host in the bundle

digitalocean heroku replit so many choice =.=

[turbid condor]

Digital ocean is the only host in them

[loud junco]

ok thanks!

[turbid condor]

Heroku isn't made to deploy bots as for replit you know the case

Heroku is for websites

[loud junco]

but i need to have a credit card for digital ocean?

[turbid condor]

Probably

[loud junco]

but i dont have one :D

[turbid condor]

Even a mobile wallet works if it has an e-card

Tho i haven't tried digital ocean

[shrewd fjord]

Well for digitalocean verification, you must add a card / paypal and pay then up wither 5$ for a just a basic use case or 12$ (maybe 10$) to use for production use case and for verifying urself

I like how digital ocean making you pay to only verify that you are adult xd

[turbid condor]

I'd rather got to hetzner

[shrewd fjord]

Fr

[loud junco]

but the point of me applying for github student dev pack is to get a free host 😭

[turbid condor]

Welp there is nothing that can help you with discord bot hosting

[shrewd fjord]

Use aws ig

[loud junco]

i dont think student dev pack comes with this 😭

[turbid condor]

Needs a card too XD

[shrewd fjord]

It comes pretty sure

[shrewd fjord]

Well f

[turbid condor]

Tbh u can use an e wallet I'm pretty sure almost everyone has a sim card

[loud junco]

its paypal but i only have touch and go

and my e wallet only has 34 cent in it :D

[shrewd fjord]

Then use AWS

Comes 1 year credit with github student pack i think

[turbid condor]

Yeah u can probably get aws

[turbid condor]

It comes without it

[shrewd fjord]

Oh nvm

[turbid condor]

Anyone can use it

Same for gch

[shrewd fjord]

Mhm wasn't sure lol

[rugged shadow]

@loud junco it comes with azure

which you don't need a cc for

[loud junco]

but everyone say free stuff = bad stuff

[turbid condor]

Its not free for lifetime

Only 1 year trial

[loud junco]

i see

so it has a database and 247?

[turbid condor]

It's a hosting service so yeah it's 24/7 as for database you might need to see the details I'm not sure about that

[vale prairie]

How can I make a command like this in discord.py?

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.Role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role

class discord.Role```
Represents a Discord role in a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild)...

[shrewd fjord]

!d discord.Role.members

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role.members

property members```
Returns all the members with this role.

[rugged shadow]

iterate over the list of roles in the guild then build a string based on that

[shrewd fjord]

There you go

[vale prairie]

Thank you

[loud junco]

aws also needs a cc :D

[shrewd fjord]

You said u have e-card or smth

[halcyon kestrel]

Is discord js better then discord py

[naive briar]

Define better

[civic reef]

I am in need of discord bot developers
we need to do some work with CodeForces API and some other work

is it fine then DM me

[slate swan]

That's not a developer searching server

Use Fiverr and similar for that

[bitter knoll]

Have any one worked with pyrogram framework

[sinful surge]

never even heard of it

[bitter knoll]

Oh

[sinful surge]

Why asking?

[bitter knoll]

I am finding someone who can help me with some things

[turbid condor]

!pip pyrogram

[unkempt canyon]

Pyrogram v2.0.106

Elegant, modern and asynchronous Telegram MTProto API framework in Python for users and bots

[glad cradle]

hi there, has someone here ever messed with adding a user to a dm group? (yes it's an oauth2 endpoint)

coz i have few questions

[wind radish]

like a bot adding a user to a dm group?

[bitter knoll]

Ya this one

[wind radish]

no

if ur smart enough in py no lol

[halcyon kestrel]

py better?

[glad cradle]

yes

[bitter knoll]

I think both are good on their own war

[turbid condor]

They are both different languages

[bitter knoll]

Ya

[turbid condor]

So on which bases are we gonna compare them

[halcyon kestrel]

yes, but for more stable code

i feel like js is better

[bitter knoll]

It’s like comparing Japanese and Chinese

[turbid condor]

And can you tell how it's more stable

And what is the thing in discord.js that you can't do in py

[turbid condor]

If we talking about em as countries then they are comparable lol

Or in term of ppl

[bitter knoll]

Lol

[shrewd fjord]

Better ask someone in dpy or disnake

Wont get suitable answers here

[turbid condor]

Wait nvm not ppl they look the same

[turbid condor]

Don't start a war man

[shrewd fjord]

Why would it start?

[naive briar]

My bias says discord.py

I don't know why you would even learn Js if it's not for web dev

[shrewd fjord]

Node.js

[sick birch]

Your code is as stable as you write it. JS doesn't inherently make your code unsafe

[glad cradle]

i even asked in the discord dev server and a mod replied initially... ig he doesn't know what's going on now even though the request is correct

[sick birch]

However it's eaiser to write unsafe code with JS

[shrewd fjord]

I was going to tell you to ask the question in d dev 💀

[halcyon kestrel]

alr

[glad cradle]

i mean if it's not a bug then it's a design flaw

also the endpoint is bad documented but I'm not even surprised

[shrewd fjord]

You shouldn't be

Discord docs is the most shittest i have ever seen 💀 no offense

[turbid condor]

Are we still on topic of disnake and dpy?

[glad cradle]

no i and spooky are talking about the discord api

[shrewd fjord]

No? I was telling him to ask someone who is from dpy or disnake support server

[naive briar]

It looks fine to me. But maybe that's because I just look at simple stuff

And those took longer than it should to look for

[glad cradle]

it's not fine 😭
if you look at d.py and forks code base you can see a lot of comments where the API is returning or doing something that is not documented or that it should'nt do

[sick birch]

To beginners, yeah. But it's intuitive if you're more experienced and has everything you could need

[turbid condor]

They weren't intended for beginners

[glad cradle]

unfortunately that's not true for some endpoints, they're missing some information where without them your request fail

[shrewd fjord]

Yeah some of them pretty neat ;-;

[glad cradle]

this is mostly for oauth2 endpoints

ig noone touch the bad documented endpoints otherwise they would've already fixed / improved them

[turbid condor]

Yeah ig they are rarely used

[shrewd fjord]

Yeah, sometime api returns weird response thats not even documented at all

[glad cradle]

also in the OpenAPI spec all the oauth2 endpoints are missing

there are only 2 endpoints that are quite useless

[shrewd fjord]

They just released the spec so maybe will take some time

[slate swan]

If you have a question, ask it so everyone may learn from it and don't ask for DMs, it's weird as well.
