!d discord.Member.id

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.id

property id```
Equivalent to [`User.id`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User.id)

[restive mantle]

How do I make so options show up like this? Or what's the name of it?

[slate swan]

Choices

[restive mantle]

!d choices

[unkempt canyon]

choices

Some command-line arguments should be selected from a restricted set of values. These can be handled by passing a sequence object as the choices keyword argument to add_argument(). When the command line is parsed, argument values will be checked, and an error message will be displayed if the argument was not one of the acceptable values:

>>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='game.py')
>>> parser.add_argument('move', choices=['rock', 'paper', 'scissors'])
>>> parser.parse_args(['rock'])
Namespace(move='rock')
>>> parser.parse_args(['fire'])
usage: game.py [-h] {rock,paper,scissors}
game.py: error: argument move: invalid choice: 'fire' (choose from 'rock',
'paper', 'scissors')

[restive mantle]

Thanks!!

[slate swan]

Not that, it's in discord.py or whatever library you're using

[tiny coyote]

I printed it and they give 2 completely different values

[restive mantle]

LMAO

oops

[slate swan]

Depends on the context

[tiny coyote]

Ohh wait i think i figure it out

the other value is the bot.?

[slate swan]

Yeah obviously if your bot sends a message it will trigger the event and you'll get its ID

[tiny coyote]

I think.., there 2 values stored in my sqlite3 database with different id's so I'm guessing

[tiny coyote]

im stupid manz alr

thanks tho

[slate swan]

If you want to ignore these messages, which is recommended, consider adding a check at the top

[slate swan]

Hello, how do I make a discord bot for personal use, I already created the bot, how do I code it

See pinned messages and channel description

[lime temple]

Hey i just wanna ask a long and hard question :D The image i post is generated through a bot like midjourney yk. Do you have any idea how these bots work? Opencv? Deep-learning? I just googled and there is no info about that. I know like these projects need lots of gpu and hardware but wanna make like the image i sent. It makes it with pixels what i mentioned. I just made a bot creates a image with api but it doesn't work the way i want it to and using the API is paid after a while so I don't want to give money. Any idea, tutorial, article or sth?

[tiny coyote]

What im trying to do is add a scenario where there is a chance that certain actions are happening that boosts the damage thats been inflicted but it doesnt seem to work.?

when I remove choices() and put choice it seems to work but i want to avoid that, to make each scenario have a higher chance of happening..

[naive briar]

They're probably running a text-to-image model or making requests to an API (most likely)

You can search up text to image models and find some info

[lime temple]

Frankly, I don't think it's an API. I've used and researched a lot of apis, but no one can do what this bot does.

[naive briar]

Hmm, I'll test something

[lime temple]

I think it's deep-learning but I'm not sure :/

If I don't get it wrong, deep-learning works with math functions and I don't know the functions very well lol (u can ping me)

[naive briar]

Alright, I'm out of ideas

[tiny coyote]

can you help me out

[lime temple]

Tysm have a good day 👍

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/7I4A
TypeError: unsupported type annotation <class 'discord.interactions.Interaction'>

I get this is within the @app_commands.command
I've tried it with both
interaction: discord.Interaction and interaction: discord.interactions.Interaction
I get the same error.
This is just a mock-up.
I just want to get the basic functionality of it sending a message, adding the view, and on_interaction it will respond with adding the role right now.
what do I need to change in to make this work or why? or both

[lime temple]

wooahh

This will be very useful to me

thank you soo much

[slate swan]

same error if I move it to line 42. I was getting the error prior to adding button in the view.

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py#L29-L30

[unkempt canyon]

examples/views/confirm.py lines 29 to 30

@discord.ui.button(label='Confirm', style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
async def confirm(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):```

[slate swan]

same error if I add it into the callback.

I'm guessing theres multiple parts that are wrong, but I don't see much documentation of these going into a class of it's own, calling the view and getting this error. even from what I found searching this discords q/a's on TypeErrors.

Also, line 9: You probably don't want to call the function, but just assign it

[slate swan]

so like this?
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/REKA

You're still calling the function

Line 33 now though

Not sure why you create a new button as well

how is that not assigning the function to button.callback?

[slate swan]

You're calling it, and assigning the result

Assigning would be without the ()

And look at this example, you don't need to assign the callback explicitly nor create a new button - not quite sure what you're doing

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py#L21-L40

[slate swan]

from the examples I found you need to reference the callback to the button for it to work. Is that not the same w/ @discord.ui.button? or is the asynchronous function automatically a callback.?

Look at the example

And if you wish the other examples on GitHub, there are multiple (https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples/views)

Those are the only ones that matter, you may find outdated or wrong examples on the internet

okay.. one shows a class as discord.ui.Button and the others show as discord.ui.View
So you're saying it's automatically a callback for the button. cool.
I still get the same error tho 🤣

[fair hinge]

woops

[slate swan]

removed.
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/OJZQ

even if I remove the whole button view section. I still get the error within the @app_commands.command

[lime temple]

This really helped for the first step. tysm again 🙃

[subtle jungle]

how do i get the link from my keep_alive file to be passed into uptimerobot?

it showed a complete address before, but now the created tab only shows this address "/"

[snow coral]

im guessing your using replit, and what your trying to do is not possible anymore

[subtle jungle]

oh 🥲 when was this feature removed?

was it in the january 4th update?

[shrewd fjord]

Well it is

[shrewd fjord]

Just click out the ↗️ button beside devtool button this should redirect you to the current repl's address

[subtle jungle]

i already tried that, and it only allows uptimerobot to be running when the tab is open

[subtle jungle]

but for something like render's free option, does the 750 hours count in terms of computation or as long as program is running? since a web service I have likely uses greater than 750 hours of computation

[thin beacon]

Can anyone help me with this ```py
class Pagination(discord.ui.View):
def init(self, ctx, selection):
super().init()

    for k, v in selection.items():
        style = discord.ButtonStyle.secondary if k != "exit" else discord.ButtonStyle.danger
        self.add_item(discord.ui.Button(style=style, custom_id=str(v), emoji=ctx.bot.get_emoji(v), disabled=False))

class Selector:
def init(self, menu, selection, *, timeout=300.0, auto_exit=True, check=None):
self.menu = menu
self.timeout = timeout
self.auto_exit = auto_exit
self.check = check or self._default_check

    self._base_selection = selection

@property
def selection(self):
    return self._base_selection

@selection.setter
def selection(self, value):
    self._base_selection = value

def _default_check(self, reaction, user):
    return (
        reaction.message.id == self.menu.message.id
        and user == self.menu.ctx.author
        and reaction.emoji.name in self.selection
    )

async def _serve(self):
    await self.menu.message.edit(view=None)

    await self.menu.message.edit(view=Pagination(self.menu, self.selection))

async def response(self):
    await self._serve()

    try:
        reaction, user = await self.menu.bot.wait_for("on_interaction", timeout=self.timeout, check=self.check)
        print(reaction, user) #not working
        print(dir(reaction)) #not working
    except asyncio.TimeoutError:
        await self.menu.timeout(chron.long_delta(timedelta(seconds=self.timeout)))
    else:
        if (r := reaction.emoji.name) == "exit" and self.auto_exit:
            await self.menu.stop()
        else:
            return r

everything is working except the print statements. the bot is getting timedout on time but upon reacting with the button the print statments not workig

[shrewd apex]

thats not how u get response from button

[thin beacon]

then how?

give me some hints

[shrewd apex]

just a sec ill link u an example

[thin beacon]

ok

[shrewd apex]

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

u register callbacks for buttons either using decorators or assigning to .callback attribute manually

[thin beacon]

can't I use buttons with bot.wait_for()?

[shrewd apex]

these get triggered when the button is interacted with

[shrewd apex]

no

[thin beacon]

but it is getting timedout after specified time then why not response?

[shrewd apex]

wdym?

the print wont work

ur trying to use buttons like reactions thats not how views work

[dreamy dune]

Pretty sure you remove the on_ for wait_for and yes it should work I don't know why you would do that though

view has a wait method built in

[thin beacon]

for testing...

[naive briar]

Sure

[thin beacon]

Thanks man! I removed the on_ from wait_for and now it is working...

but how to get the button custom_id out of that interaction event?

[dreamy dune]

data

[thin beacon]

Oh

Thanks

[snow coral]

pretty sure they released a statement, guess not

[slate swan]

what am i doing wrong it doesnt send the message when someone joins

[snow coral]

are you sure you have a system channel set

[slate swan]

yes

[pale zenith]

try printing channel and see

[slate swan]

so i should just put print channel under it

and what is wrong with this code its from a bot i made 2 years ago ?

it says the wow = await.... line is wrong

you tell us .. you have the error

[slate swan]

so from that error all we know is that guild creation failed

yeh

thats the problem but it worked 2 years ago

i didnt change anythign

most likely this: Bot accounts in more than 10 guilds are not allowed to create guilds.

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.create_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.create\_guild

await create_guild(*, name, icon=..., code=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild).

Bot accounts in more than 10 guilds are not allowed to create guilds.

Changed in version 2.0: `name` and `icon` parameters are now keyword-only. The `region` parameter has been removed.

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

[cerulean folio]

Hi guys !
If you have a bot running on your pc and the connexion crashes for X amount of time, will it reconnect automatically when the connexion is back? If no, what should I do for it, in your opinion? 😊

[cerulean folio]

discord.on_resumed() got it ! :D

[final iron]

Discord.py has reconection logic

[cerulean folio]

now can someone help me install discord.py on windows? I tried py -3 -m pip install discord but didn't work

[young dagger]

What is the correct approach to persist some data for users even after they have been removed from the database so that, when they decide to set up their account again, you can retrieve their historical data and use it to prepopulate certain fields?

Experience, Levels etc

[pale zenith]

not remove them from the database

or store a boolean like is_account_disabled BOOL or have a separate table

if this is like GDPR compliance shit then user IDs are considered non-identifying info either way (i think)

[young dagger]

I only want to keep Discord ID, gained experience, level and last activity

[trail maple]

is there event i can use await bot.wait_for() to wait for a dropdown select like you can wait for a button_click?

[pale zenith]

then yeah keep a separate table for historical data

[slate swan]

how do you @ a message id? if it's not <@> or <#> what is it?
like this message id: @runic smelt #1198788396387155998

[golden portal]

#discord-bots message that?

[slate swan]

yes

[golden portal]

that's a message link, not the typical <id> format

!d discord.Message.jump_url

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.jump\_url

property jump_url```
Returns a URL that allows the client to jump to this message.

[slate swan]

ty!

[golden portal]

welcome

the format is https://discord.com/channels/{guild id}/{channel id}/{message id}

[slate swan]

I just figured that out 🤣

super useful to make them tho

[golden portal]

oke

[slate swan]

if you want them for certain applications. u can add a prefix for ptb.discord.com, or canary.discord.com too

[golden portal]

no that's just a subdomain according to discord app, but they still work across all discord apps, i sent you a link from canary, it would still work on others

[next oracle]

I need help

I forgot how to code

in python

and in general I have been cauaght up trying to be the "cool guy" I forgot that I had a career ahead of me

[shrewd apex]

?? so take some time to learn python?

[drifting arrow]

What in the actual frick frack?! Can someone help me understand what went wrong? the issue is towards the bottom.

I can share functions if necessary.

!paste

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/GJQA the helper function

[golden portal]

the traceback was cutoff, do you have anymore at the bottom there?

[desert kiln]

I have a slash timeout command, everything works, e.g. error handling for anything else, but when I try time someone out, it says "Application did not respond"

!paste

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/O4JQ

[drifting arrow]

No. It stopped there. It's okay tho. I think I've mostly figured out the issue.

I'll also have to wait for it to happen again lol

as it stopped happening ;-;

It's like when you slap the side of a tv or whatever and shit just starts working again.

[golden portal]

i mean if the bot was blocked for 10 seconds simply from json.loads, its a large string there, u might wanna use orjson for speed tbh

[drifting arrow]

what the heckers is orjson?

[golden portal]

faster json lib for python

[golden portal]

an interaction needs at most 3 seconds to respond, when you timeout a member, its probably longer than 3 seconds which gives you "application did not respond", you can respond to the interaction beforehand through interaction.response.defer then use interaction.followup.send to send a message

[drifting arrow]

Do response.defer

[dire dock]

Does anyone have an example of a slash command working with custom convertors? I am getting an unsupported annonation type with bot.tree.command but not with bot.tree

[golden portal]

they are called transformer

!d discord.app_commands.Transformer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Transformer

class discord.app_commands.Transformer```
The base class that allows a type annotation in an application command parameter to map into a [`AppCommandOptionType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.AppCommandOptionType) and transform the raw value into one from this type.

This class is customisable through the overriding of methods and properties in the class and by using it as the second type parameter of the [`Transform`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Transform) class. For example, to convert a string into a custom pair type:

how do u load extensions now? its been a while since ive used this and looks like now you have to await the .load_extension()

I put what i had before inside the on_ready() event since that function is async and awaited .load_extension() is this the standard?

    cogs = os.listdir('./cogs')
    utils = os.listdir('./utils')

    for x, y in [(cogs, utils)]:
        for cog_file in cogs:
            if cog_file.endswith('.py'):
                try:
                    await bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{cog_file[:-3]}')
                except Exception as e:
                    raise e
        for utils_file in utils:
            if utils_file.endswith('.py'):
                try:
                    await bot.load_extension(f'utils.{utils_file[:-3]}')
                except Exception as e:
                    raise e

i also changed the setup() functions in the cogs and awaited add_cog()

[golden portal]

use Bot.setup_hook instead

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup_hook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup\_hook

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

A coroutine to be called to setup the bot, by default this is blank.

To perform asynchronous setup after the bot is logged in but before it has connected to the Websocket, overwrite this coroutine.

This is only called once, in [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.login), and will be called before any events are dispatched, making it a better solution than doing such setup in the [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_ready) event.

Warning

Since this is called *before* the websocket connection is made therefore anything that waits for the websocket will deadlock, this includes things like [`wait_for()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for) and [`wait_until_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_until_ready)...

Hey! I'm using discord.py, it works and login but sometime if there is some error in a cog file it ofc doesnt crashes entirely but because there was some error that command doesnt obviously but it doesnt even show what was wrong or what is the error, before when I used to use pycord everytime my command would break it would show me that this this things is wrong or an exception i should say? so why is it now showing now?

[golden portal]

do you have logging setup? what method did you use to start the bot? bot.start?

[ivory turret]

yes bot.start or client.start

do I have to pass like logging =True?

[naive briar]

!d discord.utils.setup_logging - you'd have to setup logging yourself or use this function

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.setup\_logging

discord.utils.setup_logging(*, handler=..., formatter=..., level=..., root=True)```
A helper function to setup logging.

This is superficially similar to [`logging.basicConfig()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html#logging.basicConfig) but uses different defaults and a colour formatter if the stream can display colour.

This is used by the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) to set up logging if `log_handler` is not `None`.

New in version 2.0.

[ivory turret]

ok ok I fixed it, now its working, Thanks!

[young dagger]

So something simple as

    historical_data = {
        "discord_id": existing_user["discord_id"],
        "experience": existing_user.get("experience"),
        "games_played": existing_user.get("games_played"),
    }

    await inactive_users.insert_one(historical_data)

    await collection.delete_one({"discord_id": user_id})

[pale zenith]

LGTM

It would probably be more memory efficient to have a relational db rather than (what it looks to be) a document-based one, but that's just me being pedantic

[young dagger]

Yeah you are right, it's MongoDB

[fiery girder]

how do you make those timer and things in embeds

it ticks down the time

cool, thanks

[fiery girder]

network error is your internet acting up?

[drifting arrow]

vps

[fiery girder]

vps?

[drifting arrow]

Virtual Private Server.

[fiery girder]

its the internet problem as i can see

[drifting arrow]

Aight

I'll wait 24hrs I guess

[fiery girder]

it is saying that it is trying to reconnect

[drifting arrow]

Nothing I can do if it's not caused by my code

[fiery girder]

yea

contact your vps or something

[drifting arrow]

na

It'll fix itself soon enough

[fiery girder]

how to appcommands group work?

!d discord.app_commands.Group

does

test = discord.app_commands.Group(name="test")
@test.command(name="testing")
async def testing():
  pass

will this work

[pale zenith]

no, because command callbacks take interaction

also don't forget to tree.add_command(test)

[young dagger]

What provider?

[drifting arrow]

ovh

[young dagger]

Distro?

[drifting arrow]

idk

[young dagger]

Ubuntu?

[drifting arrow]

oh windows

[fiery girder]

so how do i do it

[drifting arrow]

what are u trying to do?

create a slash command?

[fiery girder]

a group slash command

i am getting this error

i removved the command

[drifting arrow]

wtf is a group slash command

[fiery girder]

!d discord.app_commands.Group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.Group

class discord.app_commands.Group(*, name=..., description=..., parent=None, guild_ids=None, guild_only=..., nsfw=..., auto_locale_strings=True, default_permissions=..., extras=...)```
A class that implements an application command group.

These are usually inherited rather than created manually.

Decorators such as [`guild_only()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.guild_only), [`guilds()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.guilds), and [`default_permissions()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.default_permissions) will apply to the group if used on top of a subclass. For example:

```py
from discord import app_commands

@app_commands.guild_only()
class MyGroup(app_commands.Group):
    pass
```...

[drifting arrow]

oh okay

so instead of needing the "guild_only()" for each command, you just apply it globally

[little lava]

How to interaction Modal question with buttons?

[shrewd apex]

https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/slash-commands/#slash-command-groups

[shrewd apex]

u cant have buttons in a modal only text inputs

[fast musk]

I am so scared to click this link

Oh god I'm so curious though too

Ok, I've seen enough... hahaha

[little lava]

but i saw a server has a function that interact Modal with Select menu. so i wonder if i can do that same thing. (for the verification purpose)

i have done make a Modal question and it trigger with slash command is fine, but i don't know how to interact with Buttons or Select menu.

[slate swan]

You can create an option and when its pressed then you can
send the model to the user with

await interaction.response.send_modal()

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_modal

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_modal

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a modal.

[slate swan]

Also here is an example on how to interact with it

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

why am i getting this error

[fast musk]

More info needed. How are you invoking the package etc

[mighty pilot]

Is there a way to check if a user triggered a hybrid command from a slash or text command? I tried this
if message.type == discord.MessageType.chat_input_command: but it didn't seem to work

Reversing it worked for some reason.

if message.type != discord.MessageType.context_menu_command:

[stoic tusk]

How do I dm someone with the bot when I ban/kick/mute/warn them? I have troubles coding that

[final iron]

You just discord.Member.send()

[stoic tusk]

may I have an example of it?

it makes me understand easier

[final iron]

You just use the send() method on a discord.Member instance

!d discord.Member.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.send

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

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File) object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list) of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File) objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed) object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list) of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed) objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[young dagger]

Don't forget to use try/except if you are not using an error handler

Example

        try:
            await member.send(embed=embed)
        except discord.Forbidden:
            print("Not allowed to send DMs to the user.")
            pass

Or however you want handle it

[slate swan]

what are the different ways to pip install?

[young dagger]

sudo apt install python3-pip

[golden portal]

you can just check ctx.interaction, slash fills it, prefix makes it None

[mighty pilot]

Thats easier. Thanks

[loud flicker]

Can someone please help me, I'm trying to sync my commands (and adding new slash commands) without restarting the bot using pycord. Both self.bot.sync_commands() and self.bot.register_commands() threw me an error "Application command names must be unique" while all my command names are unique.

[hushed galleon]

looks like a pycord bug Pycord-Development/pycord#1383

[lament depot]

GitHub

[pycord] #1383 sync_commands() raising Application command names must be unique

[hushed galleon]

silver-volt there mentions a workaround for it, using bot._pending_application_commands = [] before reloading the extension

[loud flicker]

Thank you!

[desert kiln]

hm, this doesn't wanna work, I'm not sure why.

uptime = datetime.utcnow() - self.start_time```

I tried self.bot and it didn't fix it either

[pale zenith]

what part of it doesn't work?

[desert kiln]

The uptime = part, for my uptime command

@app_commands.command(name="uptime")
    async def slash_uptcmd(self, interaction):
        """⚙️ | Checks The Bots Uptime."""
        uptime = datetime.utcnow() - self.start_time
        upt = str(uptime).split(".")[0]
        embed = discord.Embed(title='Uptime', description=f'{upt}', color=discord.Color.purple())
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed)```

[pale zenith]

ok, and where do you define self.start_time?

(this is not something that discord.py provides. You need to create that variable somewhere. Probably better to have it attached to Bot instead)

e.g. in your main file bot.start_time = datetime.datetime.now()

[desert kiln]

oh, that explains it, 1 moment

[fiery girder]

i alr removed the old command and switched it with a group it still giving error

[slate swan]

hmmm

[fiery girder]

its app commands btw

[slate swan]

no sorry i cant solve it afterall i dont know discord.py anyway

sorry abt that

[fiery girder]

then what the hmmm for

[slate swan]

nothing i was just looking for one of my frnd which i last saw here

[fiery girder]

i just changed the name

iot should bve fixed

[slate swan]

u are not him anyway he came here to solve m doubts nnot to ask from me

[fiery girder]

it still give error

[slate swan]

what are a beginner or an itermidiate

[fiery girder]

in the middle

[slate swan]

ic

[fiery girder]

beginner is someone new

[slate swan]

when u started?

[fiery girder]

june 2023

[slate swan]

ic

and u gave up on it in between?

[fiery girder]

no

[slate swan]

@slate swan u still exist?

[vale wing]

He does

[fiery girder]

so is this error

[slate swan]

thts nice to hear

[vale wing]

Time to find more developers for bobux

[slate swan]

can u help this guy

am not a bot dev so i cant help him

[vale wing]

You sure you don't have duplicated command in some other cog? Try searching entire project for "tinyurl"

[fiery girder]

nope

only in 1 file

[vale wing]

Tried searching?

[fiery girder]

yes

[vale wing]

Gib the results

Because that error only happens on duplicate command

[vale wing]

There are 2 groups named tinyurl?

[fiery girder]

no

[vale wing]

Well there are

4th and 5th results in api.py

[fiery girder]

this is that result

its just the name and the group name

[vale wing]

Where's second result

[fiery girder]

its in the same line

you can see the highlighting

[slate swan]

I guess

[slate swan]

whats 'bobux' ......

[slate swan]

u still guess?

[fiery girder]

it was befire called shorten url but i wanted it as group i made it a group but it gave error so i even changed the name of the group still

[vale wing]

Ah

[slate swan]

what are u making anyway?

[fiery girder]

url shortner

[vale wing]

Okay let's do it the hard way 😈

[fiery girder]

with many things

like create stats change maybe delete

[vale wing]

Please send full traceback

[fiery girder]

ok

[slate swan]

[fiery girder]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/2NTA

here full tracback

[vale wing]

Hopefully I can solve this before I need to go

[fiery girder]

hopefully

weill it be fixed if i turned override on?

nope

[vale wing]

@fiery girder in api.py setup, add this line

print("\n".join(f"{c.cog_name} - {c.qualified_name}" for c in bot.walk_commands()))```

And oops I need to go

[fiery girder]

but where

[vale wing]

Ping me with this I will return to this later

[vale wing]

api.py setup function right before adding API cog

[fiery girder]

ok

[spark nimbus]

Is there a Google translate library that I can use to create a command for my bot?

[fiery girder]

it just shows a empty line @vale wing

[fiery girder]

!d translators

[unkempt canyon]

Huh? No.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[fiery girder]

there is a pacakge calls translators tho

[spark nimbus]

Ok

I'll check that out

Thx

[fiery girder]

or you can use google official but the docs arent in python so its hard to figure

[fiery girder]

i think you forgot tree

thes are all appcommands

i fixed it

[vale wing]

Prob

[fiery girder]

i fixed it

[vale wing]

What was the cause

[fiery girder]

some guy from this discord was helping me and said you need to do self.bot.tree.add_command(group) so i did that caused it to malfunction

[vale wing]

Oh yeah

[pale zenith]

Because it looked like a command defined in the main file (no self parameter). You don't need to do that when within cogs

[faint rapids]

Hi, in discord.py, how do I disable automatic reconnection if the bot was forcefully disconnected?

2024-01-23 20:26:34 INFO     discord.voice_client Disconnected from voice by force... potentially reconnecting.
2024-01-23 20:26:34 INFO     discord.voice_client Starting voice handshake... (connection attempt 2)

2024-01-23 20:27:34 INFO     discord.voice_client Reconnect was unsuccessful, disconnecting from voice normally...

[drifting arrow]

Is there a way to get every message in a channel?

[vale wing]

If there are not many messages you can just use history

Otherwise bot will be fetching them forever and you typically never need that

!d discord.TextChannel.history

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.history

async for ... in history(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None)```
Returns an [asynchronous iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-asynchronous-iterator) that enables receiving the destination’s message history.

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

Examples

Usage...

[vale wing]

Are you sure it's forced? Why would that happen?

[faint rapids]

wait

[faint rapids]

this "Disconnect" button

[vale wing]

Oh so bot automatically reconnects if you disconnect it as mod

[faint rapids]

no it doesn't?

[vale wing]

Does it actually reconnect or there's just this message

[faint rapids]

no

[vale wing]

This I mean

About reconnection attempt

[faint rapids]

it doesn't reconnect

[vale wing]

Then there's nothing to worry about

[faint rapids]

2024-01-23 20:27:34 INFO discord.voice_client Reconnect was unsuccessful, disconnecting from voice normally...

"Reconnect was unsuccessful"

[vale wing]

^

[faint rapids]

okay

[faint rapids]

but few music commands dont work

[slate swan]

Hi, how do I do this? I want to enter a command and the bot will ask what is your name? After my reply, the bot remembers it. When re-entering the command. the bot outputs my name. Also, how can I change my name in the database in the bot, for example, if I made a mistake

Player: !team
Bot: Hi, what's your name
Player: Steve
Bot: I remember it well
Player: !team 
Bot: Hi Steve!

well, also delete the name if the player made a mistake

[vale wing]

I don't think it is related to the log entry

[vale wing]

I this AI? Or you just need persistent data storage?

[slate swan]

To be honest, I do not know. Here is an example of a bot asking for my quote, I wrote it and it saved it.

[vale wing]

Yeah you need persistent data storage, a database for example

[slate swan]

understood, but how to do it?

[vale wing]

Well if you got no experience of working with them, I recommend checking #databases pins for learning resources

[slate swan]

thank you very much. Good luck and good health ❤️

[vale wing]

You too comrade

I wrote this on phone so i apologise if any of it is out of line etc.

[sour bone]

Could someone help me correct this code?
It’s for a discord slash command called** /Giveaway (time) (prize) (emoji)**
The error message is the image

from discord.ext import commands

import asyncio
import os
from discord.utils import get
import re
import itertools
import requests

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="/", intents=intents)

    print(f"{client.user.name} is now online")

@client.tree.command(name="giveaway", description="creates a giveaway")
async def giveaway(ctx, duration_seconds: int, *, prize: str):
    if duration_seconds <= 0:
        await ctx.send(f"Invalid duration. Please specify a positive number of seconds.")
        return

    embed = discord.Embed(
        title="🎉 **Giveaway started!** 🎉",
        description=f"Prize: {prize}\nDuration: {duration_seconds} second(s)\nHosted by: {ctx.user.mention}\n\nReact with 🎉 to participate!",
        color=discord.Color.blue()
    )

    message = await ctx.send(embed=embed)
    await message.add_reaction('🎉')

    await asyncio.sleep(duration_seconds)

    message = await ctx.channel.fetch_message(message.id)
    reaction = discord.utils.get(message.reactions, emoji="🎉")
    participants = [user for user in await reaction.users() if user != client.user]

    if participants:
        winner = random.choice(participants)
        winner_embed = discord.Embed(
            title="🎉 **Giveaway ended!** 🎉",
            description=f"Prize: {prize}\nWinner: {winner.mention}",
            color=discord.Color.blue()
        )
        await ctx.send(embed=winner_embed) ```

[proud schooner]

The error is message = ctx.send(embed=embed) as it shows in the command prompt.

[sour bone]

What would be the correct code to replace it?

[proud schooner]

Can someone else do this? I cant for another 4 minutes

[hushed galleon]

tree commands receive a discord.Interaction object rather than the context object you're used to, so you'll need to use the interaction.response.send_message() method instead (and consider renaming ctx to interaction for clarity)

see also: https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/slash-commands/#sending-responses

[proud schooner]

Thanks

[sour bone]

So every time it says ctx also replace it with interaction

[hushed galleon]

well its not only renaming, since context and interaction have different attributes/methods which you'll need to take into account

does replit have type checking? that'd make it a lot easier to know when you're misusing parameters, assuming said parameter is type hinted

@proud schooner oh yeah, member.status returns a discord.Status enum so if you want to check for a specific status, you'll need to compare it to a member of that enumeration directly, for example member.status == discord.Status.offline

[proud schooner]

Yeah, i’ve just home. The error is AttributeError: ‘str’ object has no attribute ‘status’
I’ve looked a few places for a fix and couldn’t find one.

[hushed galleon]

oh your user variable is literally a string...

[proud schooner]

Yeah thats what i meant

[hushed galleon]

what user are you trying to refer to?

you just want to check for a member's status by their ID?

[proud schooner]

Yeah thats basically it

[hushed galleon]

you'll need to retrieve their member object from a guild that they're in using Guild.get_member(), which also requires having the members and presences intent enabled in your client

if it returns the member object, you can then check their .status as usual

there's a bit more complexity to it, more specifically that discord doesnt send offline member objects for "large" guilds, i.e. 250+ members as set by discord.py, but in short if get_member() returns None you should assume that user is offline

[sour bone]

I did this. The new code is -

@client.tree.command(name = "giveaway", description = "creates a giveaway")
async def giveaway (Interaction, duration_seconds: int, *, prize: str):
 if duration_seconds <= 0:
   await Interaction.response.send_message(f"Invalid duration. Please specify a positive number of seconds.")
   return
 else:
   message = await Interaction.response.send_message(embed=discord.Embed(
     title="🎉 **Giveaway started!** 🎉",
     description=f"Prize: {prize}\nDuration: {duration_seconds} second(s)\nHosted by: {Interaction.user.mention}\n\nReact with 🎉 to participate!",
     color=discord.Color.blue()
   ))
   await Interaction.message.add_reaction('🎉')
   await asyncio.sleep(duration_seconds)
   message = await Interaction.channel.fetch_message(message.id)
   reaction = discord.utils.get(message.reactions, emoji="🎉")
   participants = [user for user in await reaction.users() if user != client.user]
   if participants:
       winner = random.choice(participants)
       winner_embed = discord.Embed(
           title="🎉 **Giveaway ended!** 🎉",
           description=f"Prize: {prize}\nWinner: {winner.mention}",
           color=discord.Color.blue()
       )
       await Interaction.response.send_message(embed=winner_embed)

And the error is in the image -

AttributeError: ‘nonetype’ objective has not attribute ‘add_reaction’

[hushed galleon]

yeah it's a bit weird, send_message() doesn't return a message object like you would expect due to a discord API limitation

you'll need Interaction.original_response() to retrieve the message after it was sent

actually i'm not sure if calling original_response() updates the reaction count given that it gets cached...

btw speaking of count, you can use reaction.count to get the total for that reaction rather than looping through reaction.users() which makes an unnecessary API call

[sour bone]

So I should replace send_message() with Interaction.original_response() and see if that works?

[hushed galleon]

er no, original_response() is how you retrieve the message sent by send_message()

the caching issue might make that approach a problem though...

[sour bone]

What would you recommend doing?

[hushed galleon]

also another sidenote, send_message() can't be used twice in a row because discord only allows one response, as such any followup messages should be done using the followup webhook
https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/slash-commands/#sending-followups

[proud schooner]

Yeah it gets the user. I then further carried on the command after testing it. i requested and it worked. I appreciate your help.

[hushed galleon]

given what you already know, you might find it easier to give an ephemeral response telling the command user that the bot is setting up the giveaway, then get the discord.TextChannel object from the interaction.channel attribute to send the giveaway message, as that will work similarly to the code that you used to have

in other words it might look like: ```py
await interaction.response.send_message("Starting giveaway...", ephemeral=True)
message = await interaction.channel.send("This is the giveaway!")
... # Wait for reactions, then fetch the users that reacted:
participants = [user async for user in reaction.users() if ...]

Pick winner as you used to, and use interaction.channel.send() to show the winner```

note: i missed the random.choice(participants) part and thought you just wanted the number of people that reacted, so ignore what i mentioned earlier about reaction.count

yet another note: the await reaction.users() syntax had a breaking change with discord.py 2.0 so it's outdated now, hence why i'm showing async for in the example
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrating.html#moving-away-from-custom-asynciterator

[sour bone]

You’ve confused me? Could u show me where to put this into the code?

Sorry

[fickle aurora]

Hey! I have a modal that requests 3 text inputs, one of those is server invite link, it is not required because I thought I could generate a server invite myself, but struggling with that. I have not found a method on discord.Guild that would create an invite, and using await interaction.channel.create_invite() results in a 404: Unknown Channel. How could I fix that? Or do I have to force invite link from the user in the modal?

[sick birch]

Try printing out interaction.channel. It being an unknown channel is strange

[fickle aurora]

prints its name just fine

wait what

this time it didnt do 404, but another error

  File "D:\bogdan\p\pikastats\venv\lib\site-packages\discord\ui\modal.py", line 188, in _scheduled_task
    await self.on_submit(interaction)
  File "D:\bogdan\p\pikastats\cogs\guild.py", line 141, in on_submit
    await channel.send(embed=embed)
TypeError: send() takes no keyword arguments```

since when does send take no kwargs 💀

[sour bone]

I removed the adding reaction so it could just out the member that just pur the reaction there themselves . The code -

@client.tree.command(name = "giveaway", description = "creates a giveaway")
async def giveaway (Interaction, duration_seconds: int, *, prize: str):
if duration_seconds <= 0:
await Interaction.response.send_message(f"Invalid duration. Please specify a positive number of seconds.")
return
else:
message = await Interaction.response.send_message(embed=discord.Embed(
title="🎉 Giveaway started! 🎉",
description=f"Prize: {prize}\nDuration: {duration_seconds} second(s)\nHosted by: {Interaction.user.mention}\n\nReact with 🎉 to participate!",
color=discord.Color.blue()
))
await asyncio.sleep(duration_seconds)
Interaction.channel.fetch_message(message.id)
reaction = discord.utils.get(message.reactions, emoji="🎉")
participants = [user for user in await reaction.users() if user != client.user]
if participants:
winner = random.choice(participants)
winner_embed = discord.Embed(
title="🎉 Giveaway ended! 🎉",
description=f"Prize: {prize}\nWinner: {winner.mention}",
color=discord.Color.blue()
)

    await Interaction.response.send_message(embed=winner_embed)

And it still got a error ‘nonetype’ objective has no attribute ‘id’ @hushed galleon

How can you delete messages in bulk without getting ratelimited?

[final iron]

purge

[tardy crater]

@proud schooner you need to await bot.fetch_guild i believe.

[proud schooner]

I will give it a shot and lyk.

[tardy crater]

cool 👍

[young dagger]

I got ratelimited with purge as well Maybe need to add sleep in between

[proud schooner]

It comes up at “guild” is not defined in vscode, thats trying to define the guild. The guild is fetching from a guild id (gid)

[proud schooner]

Okay so the problem i’m getting is i haven’t defined guild beforehand. Thats me trying to define guild.

[tardy crater]

what happens when you run it?

you also need @bot.event on the on_ready call i believe.

(that might be why guild isnt defined, because it isnt running)

[pale zenith]

ignore the rate limits

discord.py preemptively sleeps before hitting them anyway

[tardy crater]

my ip has been temporarily banned, do not ignore the rate limits. Granted, I was triggering a lot of them but i would not take the risk.

(its not anymore in case that wasnt clear)

thats really weird, i have almost the exact same code and it doesnt error out.

[proud schooner]

it works fine if i don't define guild, when i try to define guild it won't let me run it.

[tardy crater]

guild = await bot.fetch(gid) not the other way around.

[proud schooner]

That might be why..

[pale zenith]

you must've fucked up real bad then. discord.py sleeps before getting a 429 by looking at the rate limit headers for (iirc) X-requests-remaining and X-retry-after. under normal circumstances you would not get IP banned, at least not with discord.py

[tardy crater]

yeah, i was messing around with some silly things on a private server.

[pale zenith]

the only thing that could mess with this is having multiple bots on the same IP address and they adding up to the global 50request/1s ratelimit, but that only happens in like repl.it shared IPs

[tardy crater]

dont underestimate the power of pure determination and ignorance

[pale zenith]

I am... concerned

[proud schooner]

Okay, thank you guild is now defined. It was a stupid ass error on my half and I appreciate the help, I'm going to try figure out the rest of this now, thanks again!

[tardy crater]

cool, happy to help :)

[proud schooner]

Hey one quick question. I was wanting to @task.loop() something but I don’t want it to end up spamming the channel unless my discord status changes, do you know how i could do that?

[hushed galleon]

to my understanding fetch_member() doesn't return any activity/status because the API doesn't provide that, so it has to be retrieved from cached members that dpy receives from the gateway

and get_member() only works on cached guilds rather than one retrieved with fetch_guild()

[tardy crater]

iirc you can at least get whether the user is online.

[tardy crater]

so you want to run a task and do what when your discord status changes?

[proud schooner]

Change a channel permission and send a message to a channel

[tardy crater]

having had a quick look though the docs, i just dont think discord.py has the listeners for this so you'll just have to loop your task and check each time.

if you really need it like this there might be a better solution

[hushed galleon]

doesn't seem so

[tardy crater]

wdym? isnt this what i said?

[pale zenith]

cached Member.status is updated by discord.py through listening to on_presence_update since none of that is gettable through rest api

[hushed galleon]

it shows my status as offline despite it not being so

[tardy crater]

ooooooh thats a listener?
@proud schooner you can use that then i think

[pale zenith]

!d discord.on_presence_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_presence\_update

discord.on_presence_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member) updates their presence.

This is called when one or more of the following things change:

• status

• activity

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

[tardy crater]

alr looked up in the docs

[pale zenith]

yeah, but for the other person :)

[tardy crater]

fair enough

[proud schooner]

So how would I go about doing it?

Wing it and see where i end up?

[tardy crater]

ye, just have a search around a see what you find. It should look something like this:/

@bot.event
async def on_presence_update(before, after):
  ...

seems pretty straightforward, what have you tried so far?

[slate swan]

*I want to add a command that sends a embed with a button on it and then it pops up the modal i already coded can someone help me?*

[pale zenith]

discord.User.id is not a valid way of accessing that user's id. You would use either before or after.id

discord.X will never refer to a specific instance/object of X. That's the class

The same can be said for any class

[slate swan]

i want a modal to pop up when a user clicks the button on the embed but i dont know how to do that this is my code can somsone help me?

[sick birch]

You'd do await interaction.response.send_modal(ModalClass())

In applyBtn, that is

[sick birch]

Can you show your new code

[sick birch]

It's just await interaction.response.send_modal(AccountModal())
Right now discord doesn't know what modal you want to send

[slate swan]

Yo I need help

it says something like @bot.command() expected an indented after function

[vale wing]

You need to put a function under decorator, like this

@bot.command()
async def my_command(ctx):
    await ctx.send("Hi")

The intent stuff

[vale wing]

Are you using some tutorial or something

[slate swan]

no

[vale wing]

Most of them are outdated and the only reliable way is to refer to documentation

!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.

so i have this lfg modal code:

        ck.set_footer(text='use /invite to create your own game invite!')
        invite = await vc.create_invite(max_age=0, max_uses=0, unique=True)

        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=ck)
        await interaction.user.edit(voice_channel=vc)
        await vc.set_permissions(interaction.user,manage_members=True,move_members=True,moderate_members=True)```
everything works fine but it gives an error saying "Target user is not connected to voice." i was initally using `await interaction.user.edit(voice_channel=vc)` but that doesnt work so what's a way of adding a user to a voice channel

i want to add a user to a vc without them being in a vc previously

You can't do this. They have to be in a vc already, in which case you can move them to another VC

why doesnt this work? what would i replace with it so its not 'empty'

[sick birch]

I'm not sure what create_apply is. It's not a method that exists for TextChannel objects

[slate swan]

i dont know what to put so i just tried that

[lime temple]

Hey i have a bot that creates pictures with pixels. This is the first print but i wanna train and improve it. The bot is currently selecting a sample visual from the database and changing it but what i want to do is that when it changes the picture, it detects it when i press the yes or no buttons that appear underneath it it will regenerate a image. if i press the yes button it will say ''ahh he like this image and that's how I need to do the next pictures''. (This is cringe ik but dont know how to explain it :D) any idea, video, article? (please ping me <3)

[mighty pilot]

If I import something in my main file does that cover it for cogs too or do I have to import from inside the cog

[pale zenith]

you need to import it in each python file where you want to use it.

the html isnt changing to my desired font in the screenshot

instead of whitney its changing to sans serif and idk why/how to fix or change it

[proud schooner]

Thats cool

[vale wing]

Not a python question but check browser console to find out if some fonts are not found, might be bad path

[shrewd apex]

any reason ur not using some existing package?

[slate swan]

alright ty if they arent is there a way i can verify its the correct path etc

anyone here know digital art anyhow?

Sun functio parameterit on varmaan väärin päin discord.pyssa interaction on ekana ja select tokana (toisin päin muissa libraryissa)

[slate swan]

cause your interaction is not an actual Interaction object

its Select object

[drifting arrow]

What's the decorator for giving slash command params descriptions?

[drifting arrow]

Idk if this is the most ideal way to debug, but put a bunch of print statements. If the print statement runs it means the code above has run.

This doesn't necessarily mean the code above is working as intended, it just means the code above might not be where the error lies. You'd also want to print the variables above the print statement to ensure it's storing the expected value

[drifting arrow]

Does discordpy have a param thingy for dates/datetime?
Like how it does for things like channels, users and true/false?

[pale zenith]

No, you need to make your own

[drifting arrow]

;-;

[pale zenith]

This is harder to implement than you think if one would want it implemented into the library itself

[drifting arrow]

So what you're saying is.. I could do /remindme date:<date> and the <date> is calender picker?

[pale zenith]

Because you need to take into consideration different date formats and shit. For example most of the western world uses dd/mm/yy, but the united has it backwards. So like 10/12 would mean the 10 of December for most people, except some

So you need to take some biased decisions implementing this, that could mildly inconvenience some people

(the code itself for parsing a date is trivial tho)

[pale zenith]

No, discord doesn't have they either

I fucking wish they did.

[drifting arrow]

D:

[pale zenith]

It's all string parsing

I haven't used timestamps with bots in ages so I don't really remember what does and doesn't work, but can bots use timestamps like <t:1706269244:R>. in Embeds, specifically in field values and footers?

[blazing condor]

yeah, think you're thinking of Embed.timestamp

[golden portal]

^only for footer

using my old discord code to fix some stuff, have to instal easy_pil but i get this error whats it mean?

[vale wing]

Need full traceback, please paste as text

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[vale wing]

But I suspect it's cause ms build tools are not installed

[hushed galleon]

doesnt aiohttp already have 3.12 wheels though? why is it trying to build from (a presumably outdated) source?

[drifting arrow]

How do I get how many users are in my server?

it's something like guild.get_users() right?

[dreamy dune]

guild.member_count

[drifting arrow]

lol that simple huh?

[hushed galleon]

as per docs, you'll also need member caching nvm just the intents for join/leave events if you want member_count to stay in sync after on_ready

[young dagger]

How can I make the bot delete any discord link without deleting my own servers link?

[hushed galleon]

assuming you have an invite regex, you can compare the invite code against some whitelist

or if you want to support any valid invite, like those created by users, you can use Client.fetch_invite() to verify that it points to your server

[vocal plover]

not with a simple api call, you'd either need to start fetching messages until you find (or don't find - this can end up as a very big pointless search) a message from them, please don't do that, or you listen for messages from when your bot joins the server and just go from there, storing the message or whatever your usecase is, as you see them

[hushed galleon]

maybe one day, discord's API could open the search functionality to bots

[shrewd apex]

u dont need to call intents again ()

also its 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).

[shrewd apex]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot ideally you should use this tho

[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.

AttributeError: 'PartialMessage' object has no attribute 'embeds'

dm_message = client.get_partial_messageable(case["dm_channel_id"]).get_partial_message(
                        case["dm_message_id"])

embed = dm_message.embeds[0]

await dm_message.edit(embed=embed)

Why can't I edit the embed?

[pale zenith]

a partial message is basically just an ID

for when you don't need any information.

!d discord.PartialMessageable.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.PartialMessageable.fetch\_message

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

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

[young dagger]

So I should remove embed = dm_message.embeds[0]?

[pale zenith]

if you don't need it, yes. if you are planning to edit that embed, you will need to actually retrieve it thru fetching

[young dagger]

I need to fetch it just because I want to edit it? That won't apply if I want to delete it iirc

[pale zenith]

if (need to access data from message) -> you fetch
so no, not for deleting/editing/etc by itself.

Your embed has less than 4 fields.

you're trying to modiy the fourth field (3) and there isn't one.

[hushed galleon]

can you show your code? seems quite weird for dm_message to not have a channel or message ID unless you created a partial message or something

[young dagger]

Nvm it was because they were None in the database

I simply changed it to:

if "dm_channel_id" in case and "dm_message_id" in case and case["dm_channel_id"] is not None and case[
                    "dm_message_id"] is not None:

how do i make it where it puts the emoji that connects with the current team like the image, ik it checks for the role in the user so im tryna figure out how to make it where it its like the pic

[vale wing]

Action on message edit?

[proud schooner]

Basically when someone wins a game I want it to edit the message that was sent in the logs channel. I know it's possible but my brain is 💩 when it comes to things i've not got the grip of or learnt.

I know self.edit_original_reponse would work but it's as a async so self is not supported.

[vale wing]

Associate the sent message object with some game ID or store it in the game, like

async def log(...):
    ...
    return await channel.send(...)

I don't know how you handle games so can't provide example code for the storage itself

Key thing is you can store message object

Not persistently but I assume you don't need it to be persistent

[proud schooner]

It's not a proper game, it's just a discord bot coded game. I might remove the async and just do it so it will edit original response.

[vale wing]

Sorry, that's incredibly hard to read. Why don't you use roles IDs

[vale wing]

channel.send is not an interaction send, it's common message send

[proud schooner]

would that work?

[vale wing]

🧐

[proud schooner]

I'll try it

[vale wing]

I don't get how this is related

Your log must return the message, you store that message, when need to edit, just access it

[proud schooner]

So how would i log it?

[vale wing]

Again, I don't know how you handle the game. Probably like this

msg = await log("uncool text")
handle_game_or_whatever()
await msg.edit("cool text")

[proud schooner]

As i said its a discord coded bot it’d have to be logged in a json file or?

[vale wing]

It's a discord bot coded in python, this is python code

Don't get where the issue is

And how is json related to this

Could you show your game code

[proud schooner]

Basically i’m asking its all fully coded in python. No game related so would i have to log the log in json and read the json file?

[vale wing]

^

I don't understand anything from your descriptions, sorry

[proud schooner]

The game code was fully made in discord.py. There is no game it links to.

Let me get the code

[vale wing]

I'm aware of that

[proud schooner]

@bot.tree.command(name="mines", description="mines")
async def mines(interaction: discord.Interaction, mines_amount: int, bet: str):
    valid = True
    uid = str(interaction.user.id)
    bet = suffix_to_int(bet)
    
    if mines_amount >= 25 or mines_amount <= 0:
        valid = False
        embed = discord.Embed(title=":x: Error",
                              description="Invalid Number Of Mines",
                              color=0xff0000)
        embed.set_author(name="Bot Central",
                         icon_url="https://cdn.discordapp.com/icons/1189054412459622400/b8533545e1e91a4ca2ada9f4d5a4e1.png?size=4096")
        embed.set_footer(text="games")
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed)
        return
    if valid:
        subtract_gems(uid, bet)
        af = get_affiliate(str(interaction.user.id))
        add_gems(af, bet * 0.1)
        board = generate_board(mines_amount)
        userboard = [
            ["", "", "", "", ""],
            ["", "", "", "", ""],
            ["", "", "", "", ""],
            ["", "", "", "", ""],
            ["", "", "", "", ""],
        ]
        coollooking = '\n'.join([' '.join(sublist) for sublist in board])
        await log(f"{interaction.user.name} Started A Mines Game! Board:\n\n{coollooking}")
        await interaction.response.send_message(
            content=f":moneybag: **Winnings:** ``{add_suffix(bet * 0.80)}`` :star: **Multiplier:** ``0.80``",
            view=MinesButtons(bet=bet, board=board, bombs=mines_amount, interaction=interaction, usersafes=0,
                              userboard=userboard, exploded=False))```

[vale wing]

Okay, so the game is handled in MinesButtons view I presume?

[proud schooner]

That is correct.

[vale wing]

When does it finish? When you press sort of end button?

[proud schooner]

When it finishes you have to press a button let me get that bit of the code.

 async def button_cashout(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        if interaction.user.id == self.interaction.user.id:
            multi = round(calculate_mines_multiplier(
                self.bombs, self.usersafes, MineHouseEdge), 2)
            add_bet(str(interaction.user.id), self.bet, round(self.bet * multi))
            bet = self.bet
            winnings = self.bet * multi - bet
            total = winnings + bet
            add_bet(str(self.interaction.user.id), bet, winnings )
            await self.interaction.edit_original_response(
                content=f":star: Cashed Out! (**Profit:** ``{add_suffix(round(winnings))}``, **Multiplier:** ``{multi}``\n Total: ``{total}``)",
                view=MinesButtons(bet=self.bet, board=self.board, bombs=self.bombs, interaction=self.interaction,
                                  usersafes=self.usersafes, userboard=self.userboard, exploded=True))

[vale wing]

All you need to do is make your log return message, add the message attribute to your view, and just access it in finish callback

[proud schooner]

is that in this button_cashout?

[vale wing]

class MinesButtons(View):
    def __init__(..., msg: discord.Message):
        super().__init__(...)
        self.msg = msg

    async def button_cashout(...):
        await self.msg.edit(...)

Pseudo

[proud schooner]

Im shit at discord.py idk what goes in the …’s 😭

[somber sky]

because its a public bot

[vale wing]

I gave you pseudocode, ... means something that you have and does matter in your actual code but does not matter when explaining this certain aspect

[proud schooner]

I get you now.

[vale wing]

You'd typically use a database for that

[somber sky]

not really good with databases so i just found an easier way

[vale wing]

There are also some weird constructions like

for i in range(...):
    ...
    i += 1

One question tho, how exactly are emojis connected to roles? Are those role icons? Or do you define the emojis by yourself

[somber sky]

i have a list of emojis names and also the roles so it like checks both and finds what names are connected

idk how to explain it without in sounding confusing

[vale wing]

Wouldn't it be better to map roles names to emojis

Are emojis yours

[somber sky]

i am

[vale wing]

Even code looks confusing

[proud schooner]

💔

[vale wing]

Why not use the dict from the beginning

Also store emojis like !py_strong

Not just name inside colons

To get this format, send a message yourself, not with bot with emoji and put a \ before it, like

\:emoji_name:

[somber sky]

the bot is a public bot, the emojis are like that because i have a command which generates emojis with the names like that. every person who has the bot generates the emojis with that name

[fast musk]

what is the question?

[vale wing]

!e ```py
d = {"Sus Role": "😀", "Fire Role": "🔥", "idiot": "😈"}
print("\n".join(f"{v} - {k}" for k, v in d.items()))

[unkempt canyon]

@vale wing :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | 😀 - Sus Role
002 | 🔥 - Fire Role
003 | 😈 - idiot

[vale wing]

Oh heck bro, you def need a database

[somber sky]

i'd have to re write mad code and learn it when it alrerady works fine

[vale wing]

You will just continue to lose braincells if you keep using names

[fast musk]

well, tbf database only helps a lot when you are trying to make it work for multi guild

[vale wing]

And just let someone rename role/emoji and the whole thing is screwed

[fast musk]

sounds like this is a 1 guild bot

likely they are the admin

[vale wing]

@somber sky is this single server bot

[somber sky]

its supposed to be a a multi but like i said if it works fine im not about to learn databases and re write my whole code which is over 2.3k lines

[fast musk]

oh sweet summer child

Don't worry, you'll rewrite it eventually haha

[somber sky]

i dont see why

[fast musk]

That's the fun part

(not knowing why yet haha)

[vale wing]

That's a challenge of your pro developer arc

However before rewriting it completely take a look into cogs as well

2.3k lines in one file ain't good

Especially considering that's probably entire project in one file

And of course naming convention

Learn these things on side project and proceed to rewriting ☺️

1. Style conventions (see PEP 8)
2. Cogs and extensions (dpy devs are bad, couldn't even include proper example of using cogs in extensions), will need a guide for this however
3. Databases: start with sqlite, switch to aiosqlite (it's just async version of builtin lib) when understood how things work

[proud schooner]

are you still active?

@bot.tree.command(name="claim-rakeback", description="View Your Rakeback")
async def claimrake(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    uid = str(interaction.user.id)
    if is_registered(str(interaction.user.id)):
        rake_back = get_rake_back(uid)
        rbclaimed = GetTotalRbClaimed
        totalrb = rbclaimed+rake_back
        if rake_back > 0:
            add_rbc(uid, rake_back)
            set_rake_back(uid, 0)
            add_gems(uid, rake_back)
            await log(f"<@{uid}> Claimed {add_suffix(rake_back)} Rakeback")
            embed = discord.Embed(title=f":white_check_mark: Claimed Rakeback",
                                  description=f"You Claimed :gem: ``{add_suffix(rake_back)}\n You now have a total of ``{add_suffix(totalrb)}`` rakeback claimed. Nice!",
                                  color=0x88ff70)
            await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed)

I get an error when trying to add the two together. The error is: discord.app_commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command 'claim-rakeback' raised an exception: TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'function' and 'int' meaning the + is the error. Is there any way i can fix this, any help will do! Thanks.

[dreamy dune]

You didn't call GetTotalRbClaimed

You should also use the same naming convention as other functions

[proud schooner]

yep thats why! thanks

[proud schooner]

Why would that be? Confusion?

[dreamy dune]

You usually name classes like that, with a capital first letter (PascalCase)

[proud schooner]

def add_rbc(uid, amount):
    data = readdata()
    data['users'][uid]['Total_Rakeback_Claimed'] + amount
    writedata(data)

When it runs this the amount isnt getting added.

[proud schooner]

This is my other problem

[slate swan]

use += instead

!e ```py
x = 1
x + 2
print(x)

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

1

[slate swan]

!e ```py
x = 1
x += 2
print(x)

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

3

[proud schooner]

?

So plus on it's own = 0 and += means 1?

[slate swan]

no when you do x + 1 it doesnt save x value for later with one added

[proud schooner]

I'll look into changing that for all my command. can you help with my other error?

[proud schooner]

this is the other problem i have

it isnt adding my data

[slate swan]

didnt i just help you with that?

[proud schooner]

no that was something completely different

thats adding a total of said amount

[slate swan]

but i was writing that for this problem

[proud schooner]

ohhh i see, thats my bad. Thanks!

it works I appreciate your time!

[faint rapids]

What's this? using discord.py

[proud schooner]

It's a ratelimit. I suggest you add a cooldown for the command to prevent it

[faint rapids]

Ok thanks

[naive briar]

You're most likely doing something that blocked the event loop, e.g., long synchronous actions

[naive briar]

!blocking - for more information

[unkempt canyon]

Asynchronous programming

Imagine that you're coding a Discord bot and every time somebody uses a command, you need to get some information from a database. But there's a catch: the database servers are acting up today and take a whole 10 seconds to respond. If you do not use asynchronous methods, your whole bot will stop running until it gets a response from the database. How do you fix this? Asynchronous programming.

What is asynchronous programming?
An asynchronous program utilises the async and await keywords. An asynchronous program pauses what it's doing and does something else whilst it waits for some third-party service to complete whatever it's supposed to do. Any code within an async context manager or function marked with the await keyword indicates to Python, that whilst this operation is being completed, it can do something else. For example:

import discord

# Bunch of bot code

async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("Pong!")

What does the term "blocking" mean?
A blocking operation is wherever you do something without awaiting it. This tells Python that this step must be completed before it can do anything else. Common examples of blocking operations, as simple as they may seem, include: outputting text, adding two numbers and appending an item onto a list. Most common Python libraries have an asynchronous version available to use in asynchronous contexts.

• The standard async library - asyncio
• Asynchronous web requests - aiohttp
• Talking to PostgreSQL asynchronously - asyncpg
• MongoDB interactions asynchronously - motor

[young dagger]

I haven't seen XOR (Exclusive OR) being used in Discord bots a lot, why is that?

[slate swan]

what you mean by that

[young dagger]

This kind of stuff:

team_1_scored = 5
team_2_scored = 5

has_winner = team_1_scored ^ team_2_scored

if has_winner:
    print("There is a winner!")
else:
    print("It's a tie!")

[shrewd apex]

do uk what xor does?

[young dagger]

Using the exclusive or

[young dagger]

It checks if solely one of the propositions is true, and only if one of the propositions is true

[shrewd apex]

binary for 5 is 101
101 ^ 101 will give 000
truth table for xor is

a b
0 0 0
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 0

so its entirety logic dependent where u want to use it

usually its more verbose to use relational operators as far more people are used to it

u generally see bit operations in stuff like bit packing, saving some space during computation, flags and so on ur day to day logic dosent require u to meddle with these much

[young dagger]

You would probably use is not equal to instead, at least for my example above

Right?

[vale wing]

That's pretty weird

There should be != instead

[young dagger]

That is what I just said 🙂

Can you give me an example when you could use the xor operator?

[vale wing]

XOR is widely used in cryptography, cause if you add c column to asher's table, you will see that

a ^ b = c
a ^ c = b
b ^ c = a

Which means you can make any of these original data, key and encrypted data

https://medium.com/@claireli_ultron/applicable-uses-of-the-xor-operator-3e0fcc9bf9cb

[vale wing]

Of course modern encryption algorithms are more advanced but I believe xor still plays a key role there

[young dagger]

Can somebody explain why there always is a winner?

A = 5
B = 5

if A or B and A != B:
    result = "There is a winner."
else:
    result = "It's a tie!"

print (result)```

[slate swan]

just if A != B

[young dagger]

But why does it say there is a winner with the and condition? Because they are not both true?

[slate swan]

cause you didnt wrap those in ()

if (A or B) and (A != B):

but like i said this can be simplified to if A != B:

[young dagger]

Thanks. I thought it had something to do with the order of the operators

[young dagger]

Why do you need to wrap them? I'm just trying to understand the logic

[slate swan]

cause python interprets this as if it was if A or (B and A != B):

[young dagger]

Thanks

My friend just told me "Don't be shy of your parentheses" I will try to keep that in mind 😄

on both your local enviroment and the host?

[hazy kraken]

mm idk how to see the version in my host

but-

how to print??

[vocal snow]

which host are you using?

[hazy kraken]

is mine

mmm i'm using pterodactyl panel-

[golden portal]

this is an actual code btw just put it in your code and see what it prints when you run it

[hazy kraken]

discord.py==2.3.2

[golden portal]

hmm

latest dpy should have Client.__aenter__

[vocal snow]

do you have any other discord api wrappers installed on the host?

like py-cord or disnake or whatever

[hazy kraken]

let me see

py-cord==2.0.0b7

[vocal snow]

that might be why

[hazy kraken]

aha-

[vocal snow]

try uninstalling it and see if it helps

[hazy kraken]

alr

i've other inquirement

my vsc using phython 3.10.11 and my host 3.10.13

how to change my vsc? -

[golden portal]

shouldn't matter, only thing that affects dpy is python 3.12, and also dpy forks

[golden portal]

maybe a clean reinstall

[hazy kraken]

oh

[hazy kraken]

alr

[golden portal]

pip install -U --force-reinstall discord.py

I wanna know how did you start
Cause I've no clou about the journey and how should it be

[cold sonnet]

know absolutely nothing about python
start discord.py
suffer
learn python

@pale zenith Can you edit an embed with discord.PartialMessageable in a channel as well?

Instead of using message = await channel.fetch_message(case["action_log"])

[naive briar]

Try and see

[pale zenith]

[young dagger]

There is no idea to fetch the message as I already got the message ID

[pale zenith]

as mentioned yesterday you fetch only when you need the information from the message

[naive briar]

!d discord.PartialMessage - this also exists, by the way :P

[unkempt canyon]

discord.PartialMessage

class discord.PartialMessage(*, channel, id)```
Represents a partial message to aid with working messages when only a message and channel ID are present.

There are two ways to construct this class. The first one is through the constructor itself, and the second is via the following...

[young dagger]

Do you still need to fetch the channel though?

[pale zenith]

only if you need info from the channel

[naive briar]

(you can pass a partial channel to the channel argument)

[pale zenith]

ParialX -> no info, only api calls

[young dagger]

So I realized that I still need to fetch the user to obtain the username and avatar, and I also need to fetch the moderator for the same reason. Wouldn't that be the same as fetching the message itself?

[pale zenith]

what?

no?

[leaden olive]

why isnt that working?

[young dagger]

So fetching users will not result in the same as fetching the message, as we still need to obtain some data?

[glad marsh]

what edi are you using?

[leaden olive]

its an hosting idk called endelon oder smth

[pale zenith]

fetching a user returns a User object. fetching a message returns a Message object. They are two completely differnt things. (Your question is... strange... perhaps could you elaborate if this doesn't answer it?)

[glad marsh]

oh thanks

[leaden olive]

np 👍

[dreamy dune]

The error says the issue

[leaden olive]

sure, let me paste that code to vscode

😂 thought it will underline the problem but it didnt, let me try fixing it

[young dagger]

We are using PartialMessage so that we don't need to make any API calls, right? However I still need to fetch some users because I require the avatar, and I can't obtain it with just the user ID. So my question is, will it not lead to the same result since we will need to make an API call either way by fetching the message or the user?

[pale zenith]

Do keep in mind that I have no idea what your end goal is.

So I literally cannot answer that in a satisfactory manner, because the answer is: It depends.

If you need data from the message then you fetch it, simple as that

I cannot see how there's any correlation between fetching a user and fetching a message. they're different things. Unless you mean like... fetch message-> message.author vs fetch the author itself. I'm still quite confused.

[young dagger]

You create an embed with my and your avatar. The only thing you save is the User IDs for both me and you.

Then you want to add some text to the embed later, since we are using PartialMessage you need to fetch my and your user to set the avatars for the embed again. This is because it's not possible add back the avatars by only using the User IDs.

[pale zenith]

that is all factually correct

[young dagger]

So wouldn't it be better to fetch the message instead of 2 users, and edit/add one of the lines, given that the avatars already exist for the embed?

[pale zenith]

yeah if that's what you need to do

if the info is already in a pre-existing embed, then reusing it seems fine.

[glad marsh]

anyone recommend any courses or tutorials for beginners?

[shrewd apex]

for discord bots?

[glad marsh]

yes

[slate swan]

https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/

this should be useful

[glad marsh]

thanks

u need to pass the exceptions in a tuple like this `except (a, b, c):

[shrewd apex]

i dont think spotify web api exposes the whole track to play
https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/get-track

u seem to be fetching only the track object

[slate swan]

wym?

i just send the spotify song link

does it not support this?

[shrewd apex]

why u need ffmpeg if u just want to send the song link?

[slate swan]

thought i should for audio playback

[shrewd apex]

u need ffmpeg when directly working with audio streaming/downloading/converting

[slate swan]

Oh

[shrewd apex]

spotify dosent expose the tracks or audio data in their api (iirc they have a 30s demo at best)

[slate swan]

wym?

[shrewd apex]

meaning u cant download the song from spotify using the track id

[slate swan]

meaning i cant make it play music from link?

[shrewd apex]

not the whole song

as the link shows its a preview

[slate swan]

yeah

[shrewd apex]

see the preview tag on bottom u can play only a part of the song if u click on the play button

[slate swan]

yes

so it would play that

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[slate swan]

any way to change that..?

i know youtube was a thing but that is off limits now. but i couldve sworn ppl use spotipy now

[shrewd apex]

not legally no that would be breaking spotify tos

[slate swan]

so every music bot is what. illegal?

bit confused lol

[shrewd apex]

most if not all
