[viscid hornet]

looks like it exists

did you add the cog with the bot attr?

async def setup(bot):
    await bot.add_cog(YourCog(bot))```

[leaden olive]

command really doesnt work, did you find any problems?

im looking for hours, and didnt find anything

[viscid hornet]

check the db

https://sqlitebrowser.org

use this to open your .sql file

and screenshot the contents

[glad marsh]

no

[viscid hornet]

pretty much all free vps sites have drawbacks that will force you to perform tradeoffs

they do want money after all

how else is their business gonna stay afloat

[glad marsh]

i have a laptop

[midnight oracle]

Yep! I did but the error continues

[slate swan]

@viscid hornet any chance you can help me to achive what im trying to do and not do channel.send?

[fading marlin]

You're responding to the interaction twice. First you're sending a modal, and then you're editing a message

[slate swan]

hm can you help me on fixing it?

[fading marlin]

You can use a followup if you need to edit the message after the modal has been responded to

[supple jacinth]

How do I let the bot wait until someone replies to the original message the bot sent. I’m currently using context.bot.wait_for(‘message’, check = check) but it is only doing it for every message sent. So if people actively talk the bot will think a response has been sent

I also have a timeout of 25.0

[slate swan]

I'm trying to make a discord Automod that deletes curse words. The code I have linked below accesses a file called "bad_words.txt" which contains each word on a separate line. The bot can see these words and sends list of them all in the console but it just deletes any messages the person sends? How can I get it so it deletes just the words from the file?

( I suck at coding so I use tutorials to help )

from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.messages = True
intents.guilds = True
intents.members = True

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

def load_bad_words():
    with open('bad_words.txt', 'r') as file:
        return [word.strip().lower() for word in file.readlines()]

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

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author.bot:
        return 

    bad_words = load_bad_words()

    for word in bad_words:
        if word in message.content.lower():
            await message.delete()
            await message.author.send("Your message containing a bad word has been deleted.")
            break

    await bot.process_commands(message)

bot.run('YOUR_BOT_TOKEN') ```

I ofc won't put my actual token. It doesn't give me a specific error but just deletes any message sent rather than just messages containing the bad words

[fading marlin]

What does your check look like?

[supple jacinth]

return message.author == context.author and message.channel == context.channel
I want to make it so the bot only responds if the user replies to the original message the bot sent

[fading marlin]

You might have an empty line or something like that in your file which is causing it to trigger on every message

[fading marlin]

!d discord.Message.reference check this too

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reference

The message that this message references. This is only applicable to messages of type MessageType.pins_add, crossposted messages created by a followed channel integration, or message replies.

New in version 1.5.

[supple jacinth]

Oh wow thank you, that was nice and straight forward :)

[supple jacinth]

Hmm message.reference.message_id NoneTyoe object has no attribute message_id

[supple jacinth]

Fixed that issue but now I have this issue which I have no clue how that is working

The second embed replies to the first one

May if found this issue

[slate swan]

@fading marlin I keep getting the error

and now when there is a email im getting Unknown Webhook

idk why it wouldnt let me copy the error

@bot.tree.command(name="register", description="Register your account")
async def register(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    user = interaction.user
    cn = getNextEmptyRow(wks2)
    wks2.update_cell(cn, 1, user.name)

                          """)
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, ephemeral=True)```

[torn solar]

idk if im tweakin like ive made thousands of commands before

[frigid estuary]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/UWFA

ive been trying to figure out why the send level up message function isnt working for hours, can some1 pls help me before i lose my sanity

im literally dying rn

@potent helm i remember your smart maybe you can help?

[viscid hornet]

that's literally what you're waiting for. on_message is called every time a new message is sent that the bot can see

[frigid estuary]

Its not giving me any errors

[viscid hornet]

anything visual that can be called an error?

like anything on the discord side?

[frigid estuary]

the lack of a message ;-;

[viscid hornet]

also something i see now which is still sorta important but not your issue

use sanitisation for your inputs

[frigid estuary]

thats the data tables for example

[viscid hornet]

? is for sqlite which i'm guessing is your db language

[frigid estuary]

postgresql

[viscid hornet]

ah alright

[viscid hornet]

get an async version of postgres

the normal version is blocking

[frigid estuary]

all the other async functions work

just the one 2 send the level up message doesnt

would the db deploy logs be helpful?

[viscid hornet]

yeah i'd say so

wait delete it nvm i dont need it

i found your error

[frigid estuary]

what is it?

[viscid hornet]

.get_channel() returns either a Channel or None

so if it can't find the channel, it basically just returns the command and cuts it off there

!d discord.Guild.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_channel

get_channel(channel_id, /)```
Returns a channel with the given ID.

Note

This does *not* search for threads.

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

[frigid estuary]

so how do i fix it?

[viscid hornet]

firstly, add an else statement to print that it can't find the channel

then rerun the code to make sure that's the error

[frigid estuary]

it already has that

[viscid hornet]

that's if you don't have a guild

i said add it if there's no channel

[frigid estuary]

oh

[blazing beacon]

!d discord.Guild.fetch_channel

[frigid estuary]

k, the bot is launching with the changes ill let you know what happens in a minute

[viscid hornet]

[blazing beacon]

bro is single handedly resolving every issue 😭

[shadow vigil]

I am not a fan of the new tag

[frigid estuary]

its not even printing

dies

wait, could it be because its defining guild as ctx.guild, its recieving guild when called, but its not set to take guild when run?

[viscid hornet]

wdym

[frigid estuary]

could that make conflicts that may not necessarily be represented as errors?

[viscid hornet]

shouldnt do

[frigid estuary]

k...

[frigid estuary]

i have no other ideas 💀

self and ctx parameters are self-fulfilling iirc....

[viscid hornet]

same icl

[frigid estuary]

oof

[blazing beacon]

stupid suggestion:
maybe try to comment out the db code for now and call the func just to make sure whats causing the issues

[frigid estuary]

i did that already 🙂

[blazing beacon]

ah okay, and the bot did what you were expecting it to?

[frigid estuary]

ye

[blazing beacon]

neat, im also gonna assume you "wrapped" the db statements with prints to see where it messes up

[frigid estuary]

uhm no...

[blazing beacon]

try that frfr

also a stupid suggestion btw

[frigid estuary]

the prints dont... well.. print

[blazing beacon]

very interesting

[blazing beacon]

wait

are u lvling up urself somehow

to call the function

[frigid estuary]

yes

[blazing beacon]

okok hmmm

[frigid estuary]

1 message = 1 xp, 10xp = 1 level, the leveling system works (ik cause when i call view_level its right)

[blazing beacon]

since im not all too familiar with sql or the like i wont be of much help

[frigid estuary]

im mid with postgresql

[blazing beacon]

something feels fishy

im mid with sqlite LMAO (i just use json or just ignore a db)

[frigid estuary]

lol

[frigid estuary]

i suck with json

[blazing beacon]

ah i see, well can you send me your code so i can look @ it on pc

[viscid hornet]

||use a db. json is hot shit ||

[frigid estuary]

https://github.com/PR0G4M3R/Echo-AI

it has some documentation

[blazing beacon]

|| yes it indeed is but i dont plan on deploying my bot in prod or anything so its good for apps i use personally ||

[viscid hornet]

||still good to use a db but to each their own ||

[frigid estuary]

if its helpful im hosting on railway.app from github

[blazing beacon]

this is the level_module in cogs right?

[frigid estuary]

si

[blazing beacon]

yeah i really dont know either, its a skill issue from me dude

[frigid estuary]

lol

this is one of the times i wish there where errors so at least i could fix them

[blazing beacon]

rightt

[frigid estuary]

actually imma go left cause something with this code aint right

[blazing beacon]

i cloned ur bot so i can meditate on the code

[frigid estuary]

kk

[viscid hornet]

iron might've found your issue

you're on dpy v1.7.3 💀

[blazing beacon]

now that im looking at pins

#discord-bots message

[viscid hornet]

[blazing beacon]

(also if it works let us know 🦾 )

[frigid estuary]

how do i update it? dm me any further responses cause imma be afk and i dont wanna miss em

[blazing beacon]

pip install -U discord i believe is the command

[viscid hornet]

C:\users\user> pip install -U discord```

[frigid estuary]

that doesnt work, theres a requirements file instead

also, i remember that the code worked 4 hours ago, but between then and now there was a discord update

[torn solar]

@viscid hornet sorry for ping but ur in here actively

[frigid estuary]

i forgot to ping on reply 💀

[viscid hornet]

do any of your functions use interaction?

[torn solar]

wdym?

[frigid estuary]

whats the new version of discord

[viscid hornet]

so update the version

[viscid hornet]

lemme check

[viscid hornet]

should be 2.4

[frigid estuary]

2.4.0?

[viscid hornet]

Unknown interaction only happens when you do interaction.followup.whatever()

or am i tweaking

[viscid hornet]

[torn solar]

i definitely dont have that in my code

[frigid estuary]

what da hail

[torn solar]

i can send u the whole file in dms

[frigid estuary]

im getting mixed signals lol

[blazing beacon]

the version you have is 1.7.3, uninstall it and reinstall the latest one

[frigid estuary]

but which one is the latest one lmao

[blazing beacon]

this one

[frigid estuary]

ah ok

[viscid hornet]

pastebins exist for a reason

[torn solar]

oh yeah

[viscid hornet]

removing all the other row stuff worked completely fine

[viscid hornet]

not an issue

1 sec lemme get the github up again

[frigid estuary]

well at least im getting something now 🙂

[blazing beacon]

🦾

main.py lines 29-36, put await infront of the bot.add_cog(...)

[frigid estuary]

i did

but the message sendy thingy still isnt working

[blazing beacon]

did you make your setup function async?

[frigid estuary]

It is

[blazing beacon]

alright

[frigid estuary]

i think it is

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    create_database()
    print('Successfully logged in as {0.user}'.format(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(messageModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(memberModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(weatherModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(channelModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(HelpModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(ModerationModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(reminderModule(bot))
    await bot.add_cog(levelModule(bot))
    await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.online, activity=discord.Game('Starting...'))
    await asyncio.sleep(5)

bot_token = os.environ.get('TOKEN')
bot.run(bot_token)

[blazing beacon]

no in each cog

[frigid estuary]

the launch file is smol

[blazing beacon]

async def setup(bot):
  await bot.add_cog(...(bot))

[frigid estuary]

no i didnt... is that important?

[naive briar]

No, but that's how people usually make cogs; in an extension file

[blazing beacon]

yeah

[frigid estuary]

🍞 im dumb

build 2.001

2 because i updated the discord requirements file so its pretty much a different system

unforunately the message sendy thingy still aint workin

[torn solar]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/727A

[drifting arrow]

Idk what the message sends thingy is

[torn solar]

someone please help error is in the register command

[naive briar]

You didn't respond to the interaction in time (3 seconds), so it expires

[torn solar]

its not even a long command what

[drifting arrow]

Interaction not found. Can you explain a bit more? From what I see it seems like you’re trying to respond to an interaction outside of the period it allows

[frigid estuary]

i ran it through an ai to see if its all up to date and erm....

[drifting arrow]

You may want to defer the interaction

[naive briar]

Things you're doing is probably taking a long time 🤷

[torn solar]

i just want the command to work and send the embed

[quick gust]

to make it work you defer

[naive briar]

You'd want to call the interaction.response.defer method to defer the interaction at the top and respond instead with interaction.followup

[torn solar]

how can i do so

[frigid estuary]

i remember saying that about my help command

[drifting arrow]

Look up defer in the docs

On my phone so I cbf writing code

[torn solar]

ok ty

[drifting arrow]

Someone dragged me outside

Now I’m in the city

[frigid estuary]

touch grass

[drifting arrow]

Suffering

Burb

[frigid estuary]

🐦 burb 🙂

[drifting arrow]

If I recall its interaction.response.defer()

And then it’s interaction.followup.send()

[frigid estuary]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/UWFA

thats the code for the message sendy thing

[drifting arrow]

Interactions have 3 seconds to complete normally and defer extends to 10 minutes

[frigid estuary]

3 seconds... sounds like my attention span

[drifting arrow]

2nd function?

[frigid estuary]

ye

[drifting arrow]

Is it meant to be inside the other function?

[frigid estuary]

no

its called by the other function

[drifting arrow]

Paste error or you didn’t see the indent?

[frigid estuary]

idk ;-;

wait... could the indent be messing it up

[drifting arrow]

Yes

If this pastebin is your actual code then yes

[frigid estuary]

istg if thats been the problem the entire time....

[drifting arrow]

The 2nd function is inside the first

[frigid estuary]

in my code it isnt...

[quick gust]

are there any errors raised?

[drifting arrow]

See how the 2nd highlight is more right?

That tells python it’s inside the first function

[quick gust]

its probably a paste error

[drifting arrow]

I hope so

[blazing beacon]

https://github.com/PR0G4M3R/Echo-AI/blob/main/cogs/level_module.py

just incase it is a paste error thats the source

[quick gust]

yep paste error

[naive briar]

The spaces in front of the first line is removed by the message storage in most cases

Discord also does that

[drifting arrow]

It’s why I asked

Could just be a paste error and it looks like it is

[naive briar]

:P

[frigid estuary]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/B3HA
thats the entire cog

[quick gust]

you didn't answer

[drifting arrow]

I’m gonna ignore indent errors

[frigid estuary]

no errors

[quick gust]

add print statements in different places to see where it stops

[frigid estuary]

i did 🙂

[quick gust]

and what'd u infer

[drifting arrow]

Remove the try. It won’t catch every error in that code block

[frigid estuary]

oh

[drifting arrow]

Ya

Try catch doesn’t output every error

You want to ideally use it for as little a codeblock as possible

And only in instances where there’s a possibility it could fail

Not as an entire wrapper for a block of code

Alright time to go stumble back to my car . Back in 15 . If I don’t return in 30 assume the best

[frigid estuary]

still no errors

[frigid estuary]

me fr

its not printing any of the check statements...

https://tenor.com/view/young-bucks-gif-7266789149756718550

[quick gust]

its not printing first check passed?

[frigid estuary]

nope

[quick gust]

that means

if new_level > current_level:```

this isnt being met

try printing out both the variables

before the if statement of course

[frigid estuary]

k

when i use Echo_view_level the levels are updating properly.... so am i just dumb or...

we shall see

[quick gust]

i think i got your error

[frigid estuary]

507

508

[quick gust]

still ill wait to see what this resulted in

[frigid estuary]

well

[quick gust]

I have a feeling these are string types

print(type(new_level))

[frigid estuary]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/NBIA

thats the full log

[frigid estuary]

<class 'int'>

<class 'int'>

[quick gust]

507 is current level or?

[frigid estuary]

yes

we had a little xp accident

[drifting arrow]

You may need to do some test variables to ensure it works lol

Write two new variables before the check overwriting the original and set them to something that will trigger the check

[frigid estuary]

?

[drifting arrow]

Force it to trigger

This is why I need my pc lol

I would write it up

[quick gust]

if 507 is current level, 508 is new level, and both are integers. theres absolutely no way the print("first check") isnt outputting...

[frigid estuary]

hmmmmm

[drifting arrow]

Which is why you need to put fake levels in for now so it forces to run

[quick gust]

what they mean is

new_level = 1000
current_level = 10
if new_level > current_level:
  ...```

[drifting arrow]

Yes

[frigid estuary]

OH

[drifting arrow]

This forces it to run

[frigid estuary]

wait a sec.... when i do view_level it returns level_row = self.ldb_cursor.fetchone()
prev_level = level_row[0] if level_row else 0
return int(prev_level)
not the new level

should be fine

but thats the command ive been using to check if the leveling system is working

and this is fine iirc

[drifting arrow]

@frigid estuary basically to properly debug you first need to see where your code stops. So put print statements everywhere and anywhere. If you reach a point where it doesn’t work as intended you can easily trace back the last time it did work

[frigid estuary]

↓↑↨→←

[frigid estuary]

oh...

[drifting arrow]

There is probably better ways to do it

But I like this way

It forces me to read my code

[quick gust]

nah print statements is the best way

[drifting arrow]

Also don’t be afraid to read your code out loud

Saying what it does as you go.

And what you expect to see etc

This helps you process what is actually happening

Like you will read it out loud and go “wait. wtf. No that’s not right”

Or realise you’re saying the same thing 5 times

Also invest in a rubber duck

[frigid estuary]

ok... lol

i feel like im about to fall asleep ngl... but i wanna get this working

[drifting arrow]

Sounds silly but it works

[blazing beacon]

need

[drifting arrow]

Sometimes I use my private discord servers to rubber duck

Like I don’t even need help I just need to process my thoughts

[frigid estuary]

why is total_xp defined twice hmmmmmmmm

[drifting arrow]

First line defines its value

Second one increments

[frigid estuary]

oh ye

[quick gust]

as gnome said, this is like

total_xp = xporwhatever
total_xp = total_xp + increment```

[drifting arrow]

Could shorten to one line if needed

[quick gust]

yes but readability 🫡

[drifting arrow]

Fuck readability!

[frigid estuary]

i keep looking at these and feel like im missing smthn

[drifting arrow]

Yes

[quick gust]

the only thing python devs have going for them is readability 😭

[drifting arrow]

I just realised

Remove ctx

[quick gust]

but whyyy isnt the first print statement being called

[drifting arrow]

Unless ctx is used in the send level up message then you need to define it

If you don’t properly assign the params when you call the function python will just assign the values in order

So ctx is actually user id in this case

[frigid estuary]

so if ctx isnt assigned then erm ugh

[drifting arrow]

You aren’t assigning ctx at all

[blazing beacon]

just have another arg for guild_id

[drifting arrow]

Normally discordpy does it but since this isn’t a command you need to pass it through

[frigid estuary]

how do i define it, i cant have the level_update define it

[blazing beacon]

when u r calling the function from the message listener u can pass ctx and get everything

[drifting arrow]

Oh to be young and inexperienced

[blazing beacon]

sorry im still looking at ur code, i was setting up a postgresql db to try and recreate ur issue but i forgot the password i used to set it up 😭

[drifting arrow]

I remember when I was as inexperienced as @frigid estuary

Now my issues are more advanced lol and often so unique and niche that not even chatgpt can help lol

[blazing beacon]

i was suffering from a skill issue while trying to help them so thanks 🦾

[drifting arrow]

It is currently 3pm and I haven’t heard a car honk in 10 minutes

Almost forgot I was sat in a car park in the middle of the city

[frigid estuary]

uhm how

trust me im great at front end but back end..... meh

[drifting arrow]

Same here but in reverse lol

[frigid estuary]

lol\

[blazing beacon]

^^ me too

[drifting arrow]

Ooo I hear a siren!

[frigid estuary]

mb

[drifting arrow]

Who wants to take the over and under on when the next car toot will be?

I say 2 minutes

Timer starting now

[frigid estuary]

buuuut....

[drifting arrow]

Not even

[frigid estuary]

if new_level > current_level:
print("first check passed")
# Send level-up message if the user leveled up
await self.send_level_up_message(guild, user_id, level=new_level)

i need to define guild 😮

[drifting arrow]

1 minute 40!

[frigid estuary]

also why do i feel like the inequality arrow is whats messing it up

[drifting arrow]

It’s not

[frigid estuary]

ik but i just have a feeling

like somethings wrong right about there

[drifting arrow]

You aren’t assigning guild at all

I wish I was at my computer lol

[frigid estuary]

same

[drifting arrow]

Can someone who understand what I am saying show him an example?
He is calling the function correct but he is assigning “user id” to the “guild” parameter and the “user id” param remains empty. The user id doesn’t have get channel

Your function takes 3 params and you only send two

[frigid estuary]

why isnt it giving me an error saying that then 😮

[drifting arrow]

Or to change it up. You need three keys to open this door and you have only used two

[frigid estuary]

take the hinges off the door

@potent helm

bro was online last time i pinged him and went idle without even looking 😭

[drifting arrow]

Heh honk

Truck go honk

[frigid estuary]

if new_level > current_level:
            guild = ctx.guild
            print("first check passed")
            # Send level-up message if the user leveled up
            await self.send_level_up_message(guild, user_id, level=new_level)

[frigid estuary]

tronk

[drifting arrow]

I should hear another honk within 3 minutes

[frigid estuary]

async def update_user_xp(self, user_id, xp_increment):
        # Update user's XP in the leveling database
        self.ldb_cursor.execute('''
            INSERT INTO user_xp (user_id, xp)
            VALUES (%s, %s)
            ON CONFLICT (user_id)
            DO UPDATE SET xp = user_xp.xp + EXCLUDED.xp
        ''', (user_id, xp_increment))
        self.ldb_connection.commit()
        await self.update_level(user_id, xp_increment)

this seems right

i think i have an idea

[drifting arrow]

Oh boy

Here we go

[frigid estuary]

lol

so... the event on_message can pass ctx... and i can use ctx to get the guild... so why not pass ctx from on message to the function

[drifting arrow]

Idk give it a shot

[fathom tree]

i am tring to send an image but i am getting a no response for this line (py-cord)

await ctx.respond(file=discord.File(fp=f"test.png"))

[latent jay]

any error?

and is test.png in the same folder you're running the bot in

[fathom tree]

yes.

[latent jay]

try catching the error

[fathom tree]

NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction

this is the error

[fathom tree]

okk

[latent jay]

Can you show the full code of the command?

you're probably trying to respond to a dead interaction

[frigid estuary]

MY IDEA WORKED

i can die in peace...

i mean sleep.... i can sleep in peace

[latent jay]

that isn't the full command

[frigid estuary]

tysm for helping

[frigid estuary]

tysm for helping

[blazing beacon]

np, even though i didnt do much glad to see it work out in the end

happy coding 🦾

[frigid estuary]

thnx 🙂

[fathom tree]

the test image is being saved each time i run the command

[latent jay]

what are you trying to do?

[fathom tree]

put a filter on avatar

[latent jay]

what type of filter

[blazing beacon]

i can finally uninstall postgresql 😭

[latent jay]

an API probably exists already for what you want to do

[fathom tree]

that's a different image...
but that's not the problem here
this works and the image is being saved

i can't use API in everything... i wanna do it myself

[frigid estuary]

Lmao

[weary verge]

Hello i want make my bot 24h i use python

[unkempt canyon]

Discord Bot Hosting

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

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

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

[drifting arrow]

As the bot said. Use a hosting service

It costs money but that’s the price to pay

Alternatively you can host it yourself on a computer and never turn it off

[blazing beacon]

like you can use a spare android phone and install termux and a few other things on it clone the bot and boom ur good

[weary verge]

?

[slate swan]

Its Client

[robust fulcrum]

guys how can we mention a slash command in a message in disnake?

[naive briar]

Me when case sensitivity 😔

[golden portal]

tbh why is he replacing the bot after defining commands above it

[quick gust]

some bots have commands here, what is this called?

[slate swan]

Context menu

[quick gust]

you got a guide for this? are they added through the api wrapper or through the dev portal?

Can't find it if i search for "context" in disnake docs (maybe they don't have it?)

[naive briar]

The API

!d discord.app_commands.context_menu

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.context\_menu

@discord.app_commands.context_menu(*, name=..., nsfw=False, auto_locale_strings=True, extras=...)```
Creates an application command context menu from a regular function.

This function must have a signature of [`Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction) as its first parameter and taking either a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member), [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User), or [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message), or a [`typing.Union`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Union) of `Member` and `User` as its second parameter.

Examples...

[naive briar]

Average discord.py W

[quick gust]

disnake doesn't have it?

[naive briar]

I don't know other libraries besides discord.py :P

[quick gust]

unfortunate :(

[naive briar]

Maybe try searching something like message command?

[quick gust]

found this
https://docs.disnake.dev/en/stable/api/app_commands.html#disnake.APIMessageCommand

!d disnake.APIMessageCommand

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.APIMessageCommand

class disnake.APIMessageCommand```
A message context menu command returned by the API.

New in version 2.4.

[quick gust]

thank you

[naive briar]

🐈

[hushed galleon]

iirc the format is </cmd name:id>, where ID is the slash command's ID
with dpy its relatively easy to get these IDs yourself with a custom tree (see my gist), but for disnake i couldn't find any obvious way to access it, and their feature request for properly supporting slash command mentions is still pending DisnakeDev/disnake#631

[lament depot]

GitHub

[disnake] #631 Add way to mention slash commands

[umbral carbon]

im so confused with the music cog, are there any tips, i just want it to be basic nothing too complicated, something i can use for my own self

[pale zenith]

or my gist which is better

actually tho what did you change from soheab's? I hate gists don't keep commit history so I can't diff it :c

[hushed galleon]

"commit history" as in like being able to fork and compare gists, rather than just the revisions tab? either way i think it was mainly just refactoring and simplifying the API (and disregarding 3.8/3.9 compatibility)

[pale zenith]

That makes sense

And yeah that's what I mean. When forking a gist it doesn't keep the revisions

[glad cradle]

currently on disnake the only way is by fetching the list of global commands / fetching the global command using

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.fetch_global_commands
or
disnake.ext.commands.Bot.fetch_global_command

they either return a list of objects or an object from which you can access the .id attribute

obviusly the most easy way to do this currently would be by manually retrievieng all the ids instead of fetching them every time

[hushed galleon]

ah ok, can it be retrieved during their auto sync? since the bulk overwrite commands endpoint returns the same list of commands

[glad cradle]

mh this is a bit difficult to do for normal users who are not familiar with the internal codebase, the price for auto sync (so abstraction) is that the user lose a little bit of help to sync commands manually, but ig it should be possible by fucking a little bit with internals (mainly using HTTPClient methods and other things)

auto-sync can be disabled by passing the appropriate flags when creating a Bot instance, so you need to create from scratch your own logic so it is possible but it's a very advanced thing

[viscid hornet]

probably learn to use pillow

[fathom tree]

it was correct code, my internet connection was the problem.

i am learning that's why i asked for help here but was told to use API instead

[upbeat otter]

But if you process your images through pillow directly, Your bot might die.

[hushed galleon]

#media-processing would be appropriate for questions specific to pillow, but as for integrating them into dpy, you'll want to make sure you're doing your image manipulation in a separate thread to avoid blocking your bot's event loop, and saving to an in-memory file to avoid concurrently writing to the same file on disk, e.g. ```py
import asyncio, io

def make_praise_image(image_data: bytes) -> io.BytesIO:
... # do some pillow magic
f = io.BytesIO()
image.save(f, format="png")
f.seek(0)
return f

@bot.command()
async def praise(ctx, user: discord.Member = commands.Author):
image_data = await user.display_avatar.read()
image_file = await asyncio.to_thread(make_praise_image, image_data)
file = discord.File(image_file, filename="praised.png")
await ctx.send(file=file)``` api reference: BytesIO, Image.save(), asyncio.to_thread()

You shouldn't use requests, it is blocking

What exactly is outputted to your channel btw?

[ivory storm]

how can i do this

@pale zenith

i,m beeginer

[pale zenith]

do what?

could you answer my question

[ivory storm]

how should I make it work

[ivory storm]

this

"There was a problem processing your request. Please try again later."

[pale zenith]

ok. in your try except, you're going to have to make it output the full error:

import traceback
```then```py
except Exception as e:
    traceback.print_exception(e)

right now what you're asking is pretty inactionable, as you're not being very specific.

[ivory storm]

I can't express myself in detail, I don't know much about it, but I just want the bot not to send this error and it still does it after this change, even though what the command is supposed to do works, but it sends this fucking error

[viscid hornet]

||.format_exception(e) with py formatting ||

[fathom tree]

thanks i will do that

[mild zephyr]

im starting to reach a breaking point, i need someone willing to review my project x3 i think i'm doing bad practices on some stuffs yet i dont know where

reminds me how weird it is to have {self.name} in that doc example

for a while i thought dpy did some magic to replace text inputs with strings, until i realized it was just returning .value from its __str__ method

thats the one, thanks

[midnight oracle]

How can I get a discord.Guild object of a server with just the server ID to be able to create channels, categories, etc?
The thing is that the command that orders the creation of the channel/category can be used in all the servers the bot is in and make effect in one of the selected servers even if the command was not called from that server. Is that possible?

[glad cradle]

put your code on github and send the link here

[glad cradle]

if the Bot have the permissions in that guild yes

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.fetch_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.fetch\_guild

await fetch_guild(guild_id, /, *, with_counts=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

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

Note

This method is an API call. For general usage, consider [`get_guild()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_guild) instead...

[glad cradle]

you can use this to fetch a guild object

given the guild id

[midnight oracle]

OH

oka oka, thanks!

letme try

[golden portal]

its raising that error because you're using the bot with a different event loop, use asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe to use coros in a different thread and event loop

!d asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.run\_coroutine\_threadsafe

[slate swan]

Okay thanks

[open sail]

Is there a direct method to create a private thread that the admin cannot access.

[viscid hornet]

theres channel.create_thread() if thats what you're looking for

[open sail]

I mean a thread that even the admin cannot access

[open sail]

that's not I'm looking for

I'm using that right now

but admin can still enter the thread through the #threads

I know maybe dm is a way, but is there a method that can work in a server?

[viscid hornet]

i dont think thats possible

[viscid hornet]

use DMs i say

[open sail]

there's a really strange method

[viscid hornet]

it's a lot cleaner

[viscid hornet]

whats the method

[open sail]

the bot needs to detect the users and remove it....

[viscid hornet]

too much work

[open sail]

Indeed

[viscid hornet]

just use DMs

[open sail]

but I need groups..

it's not personal

or is there a method to change a server's admin to a bot

[viscid hornet]

wdym?

[open sail]

literally

can a bot be a server's admin

[viscid hornet]

yeah?

with permissions?

[open sail]

do you understand my meaning?

[viscid hornet]

make a bot a server owner

[open sail]

yes!

is it possible?

[viscid hornet]

no

its a bot

servers are created by users themselves

[open sail]

so it's impossible to actually create a private space for certain user groups without dm

[viscid hornet]

yeah pretty much

there will always be higher roles that can see it

[open sail]

Line can let the bot be the group owner

[viscid hornet]

no it cant

owners are users because a user has to make it in the first place

[open sail]

yeah but then the bot can have the highest authority if the author don't access the bot

[viscid hornet]

wdym by "author" in this context

the person who ran the command?

[open sail]

the bot creator

[viscid hornet]

thats the bot owner, not the author

either way just use DMs

[open sail]

is it possible to create a dm group by the bot?

[viscid hornet]

no

[open sail]

I know ....... now the problem is that I need space for multiple users

[tawdry swallow]

can anyone give me an example for required parameters in a slash command?

[open sail]

so then my problem isn't solved

[viscid hornet]

async def your_cmd(self, ..., your_param: your_param_type):
    ...```

[tawdry swallow]

I need a requried option

[viscid hornet]

just showed you how to make a required option

[tawdry swallow]

Well, this is a parameter isn't it?

The auto-fill

[viscid hornet]

wdym by autofill?

[tawdry swallow]

I want the parameter to auto-fill with an answer

wait let me see if I can give you an example ;-;

[viscid hornet]

so an autocomplete?

[tawdry swallow]

Ye

Like this :

[viscid hornet]

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

[tawdry swallow]

Ah

alright, Thanks!

[thin raft]

it is possible

[thin raft]

this is not, gdm use oauth

!d discord.Client.create_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.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`.

[viscid hornet]

it's not

[thin raft]

it is...

[viscid hornet]

you cant transfer server ownership to a bot?

[open sail]

how?

[thin raft]

just create the guild with the bot

[thin raft]

create the guild with the bot

wdym by that

[upbeat otter]

Yeah. But it has a limit of 10 iirc

[thin raft]

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

[open sail]

what does that limit mean

sorry, I'm not familiar with guild

[thin raft]

guild = server

[open sail]

so creat_guild will actually create a new server?

a new one?

[upbeat otter]

Bro remembers the whole docs 😭

[thin raft]

I just copy pasted

[open sail]

crazy...

[thin raft]

I read it 30 seconds ago lmao

[upbeat otter]

And you actually believed 😭

[upbeat otter]

Yes though

[tawdry swallow]

Quick question :

How would I check if a member has a specific roles in a slash command? Discord.py

[thin raft]

if role in interaction.user.roles ?

[upbeat otter]

!d discord.app_commands.checks.has_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.has\_role

@discord.app_commands.checks.has_role(item, /)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check) that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.MissingRole) if the user is missing a role, or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.NoPrivateMessage) if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CheckFailure).

New in version 2.0...

[tawdry swallow]

Alright

thanks

[open sail]

is it possible to not create the server everytime?

cuz I might restart the bot

Very frequently lol

[upbeat otter]

What is your use case idk maybe Alex can help

Or if you're willing to explain everything again 💀

[open sail]

I can

so I was trying to create a private thread for a certain group of users

it's a group, so DM doesn't work

but I want it to be purely private

even the admin cannot enter it

[upbeat otter]

Well then your bot can create create a server and then you can use that server to create private channels for your users

!d discord.Client.create_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.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`.

[open sail]

yeah but will it create the server everytime a start it?

[upbeat otter]

Nah you can just create it once and then delete that line of code if you want it to remain unchanged

[open sail]

lol

okay I'll try it

[upbeat otter]

Yeah

[open sail]

so where should I put this?

when I start the bot?

[upbeat otter]

No

In a command preferably

Then run that command and store the server id

Then use that id for further processing

[open sail]

I see

so is it possible for me to transfer the ownership

cuz... there are so many members in my server

[robust fulcrum]

guys how can i get all slash commands from a ext by its name in disnake?

[viscid hornet]

holy shit he's right

[thin raft]

haha

just don't go over 10 guilds

[viscid hornet]

disnake is a rewrite of dpy so i'm guessing use bot.walk_commands() to create an iterable of all the commands and then check if each "command" is a cog and then get all the commands from said cog

[thin raft]

it's a fork iirc

like pycord and nextcord

[robust fulcrum]

!d disnake.ext.commands.InteractionBot.get_cog nvm i fixed my issue lol
i used

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.InteractionBot.get\_cog

get_cog(name)```
Gets the cog instance requested.

If the cog is not found, `None` is returned instead.

[viscid hornet]

im stupid regardless

[mild zephyr]

the repo is private cause im embarrassed by my (non)skills x,x

[open sail]

I was trying to get the user id by username

and it always return None

[robust fulcrum]

guys should i make text based commands or slash commands, like which are preffered and easy to use?

[viscid hornet]

i’d say slash commands when you get to know them but either works fine. they both have their quirks and prefix commands make more sense upfront

[viscid hornet]

what are you exactly trying to do?

[open sail]

literally just what I said

get the user id by username

[robust fulcrum]

kk, thanks

[viscid hornet]

are you looking for a username inside of a guild where the message was sent?

[open sail]

nope

a random input string

[viscid hornet]

so you’re querying the whole of discord for a username?

whats the scope of your username search?

one server? multiple servers? the whole of discord?

[open sail]

in the server

[open sail]

the server

I used guild.members

[open sail]

@viscid hornet here's my code

[viscid hornet]

are you inputting a username or a display name?

[golden portal]

honestly, just use Guild.get_member_named

!d discord.Guild.get_member_named

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_member\_named

get_member_named(name, /)```
Returns the first member found that matches the name provided.

The name is looked up in the following order...

[open sail]

username

[open sail]

okay

[open sail]

failed..

I still get None

[fierce oxide]

How can i do a while loop with integers?

[viscid hornet]

wdym while loop with integers?

[fierce oxide]

age = str(int(input("How old are you?: ")))

while len(str(age)) == 0:
    age = int(input("How old are you?: "))

To make it loop until the user types a full answe

i tried

age = int(input("How old are you?: "))

while len(age) == 0:
   age = int(input("How old are you?: "))

But then i just get the error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\First\First\HelloBubba.py", line 10, in <module>
    while len(age) == 0:
          ^^^^^^^^
TypeError: object of type 'int' has no len()

[naive briar]

This is not a question about Discord bots, I'm afraid

Maybe try #❓｜how-to-get-help

[viscid hornet]

1. you made it in integer and integers dont have any length because it's a number, not a list or string
2. this isnt something to be in discord bots

go to #python-discussion isntead

[leaden elbow]

Is there a good way to check if a token is a bot token or user token?

[viscid hornet]

paste it into discord. it will tell you if its a bot token or not

[leaden elbow]

Will warn me for every token and I need it in python

[viscid hornet]

you can always try to run the tokens and then if any errors show up, its not a bot token

[leaden elbow]

But I have to check if it's a bot then bot or user token then user.. because in the headers in the auth I have to set it to bot {token} when it's a bot token

[viscid hornet]

yeah?

theres not really any way around that

whats your use case?

[leaden elbow]

A token tool... You find a token and then you can for example show all guilds the user/bot is on

But I guess I will just add a u/b input to select if it is a user or bot token

[sonic kelp]

am I importing it correctly? 🗿

[sonic kelp]

nono worky like that

lemme try in a sec

[open sail]

well I've solved that problem

[sonic kelp]

okay

[open sail]

I enabled the members intent in the developers portal

[sonic kelp]

well, ofc

[quick gust]

what is that syntax-

but yeah the import is correct

[sonic kelp]

its called a joke

[quick gust]

? so why ask

[quick gust]

Okay

[quick gust]

the display of humour was lacking but alright

[sonic kelp]

read that message wrong

[near crown]

how do i configure telegram bot to listen message from my channel and respond to it
I already have the channel id
currently bot is listening to itself and responds

[viscid hornet]

what the hell is that

[viscid hornet]

so check if the author is the bot and if it then just “return” out the function

[quick gust]

a joke apparently

[viscid hornet]

the fact that it doesnt even work 😭🙏🏽

[sonic kelp]

it does

if youre gonna decide to be a smartass, do it correctly

and i am clearly in pycharm, so it would highlight incorrect shit

test it here: https://programiz.pro/ide/python/1X887IDK4D?utm_source=python_playground-shared-project-link

[viscid hornet]

almost like everything you wrote has yellow squiggly lines underneath

[quick gust]

apparently it does work 💀

today I learned

[viscid hornet]

😭🙏🏽

[sonic kelp]

not red lines tho

🗿

[glad cradle]

then why are you asking for a code review

Understanding where you could do better is part of the improvement

[agile spade]

Im using discord.py and was wondering how i could check if i have the ability to ban a member from a server?

[slate swan]

hm can you help me out on how to add it?

[hushed galleon]

i have a gist on it covering how to register persistent views, plus stateful views, if that helps
https://gist.github.com/thegamecracks/0f9ab7ad3982e65ff4aa429acb39cc4e
its written with dpy in mind, but nextcord should be mostly similar

[slate swan]

@hushed galleon may you help me out with a problem I’m having

[golden portal]

asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe(start_api(data), bot.loop)

fairly straightforward

tbh i would recommend just not combine flask and discord.py in the same process/project

[slate swan]

thank you it worked for me

[open sail]

is it possible to add multiple users to a thread at a time?

(I want to prevent users added to thread notification messages from being too long)

[midnight oracle]

Any idea why this is not giving me the role when I react to the message?

@bot.event
async def on_reaction_add(reaction: discord.Reaction, user: discord.User):
    if user.bot:
        return

    try:
        with open('projects/project_data.json', 'r') as infile:
            project_data = json.load(infile)
    except (json.JSONDecodeError, FileNotFoundError):
        project_data = []

    if isinstance(project_data, list):
        for project_info in project_data:
            if project_info['message_id'] == reaction.message.id:
                if reaction.emoji == '✅':
                    project_details = project_info['project_data']
                    server_guild = await bot.fetch_guild(project_details['server_guild'])
                    role = await server_guild.get_role(project_details['role_id'])
                    await reaction.user.add_roles(role)

[queen leaf]

Looking for a better way for my discord bot to call another file and take an output image generated by it, feedback would be appreciated

https://github.com/COMMANDO2406/Inspirational-Quotes-Bot

I need to call src/image_gen.py and then an image output is generated by it

My bot needs to display the image

[vale wing]

If the message was sent after bot startup, you need to listen to on_raw_reaction_add

!d discord.on_raw_reaction_add

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_raw\_reaction\_add

discord.on_raw_reaction_add(payload)```
Called when a message has a reaction added. Unlike [`on_reaction_add()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_reaction_add), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

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

[vale wing]

Generally, in async applications heavy blocking processes (such as image generation) need to be threaded

I think I have some open source repo with image generating bot

Lemme see

[midnight oracle]

Even if I'm passing the message ID to check if a reaction was added? owo

[vale wing]

Yeah, you don't receive simple on_reaction_add events if message is not in cache

And it will never be in cache after bot restart

[midnight oracle]

oooh

[vale wing]

Yeah found the repo, take a look https://github.com/DevotedExuDevelopersTeam/EventMaster/blob/master/utils/image_generation.py

[midnight oracle]

gotcha

[vale wing]

Specifically at async functions that wrap sync image generation functions

[golden portal]

asyncio.get_event_loop().run_in_executor(None, ...) is equivalent to asyncio.to_thread(...), better of using that function, most people actually just make a deco for it so its not a bloat

[open sail]

is it possible to add multiple users to a thread at a time?
(I want to prevent users added to thread notification messages from being too long)

[vale wing]

Yeah I have a deco in my newer repos but they're private

It still looks pretty unholy

[vale wing]

I'm not sure if there's atomic operation for that but you can always for loop ig?

[open sail]

I'm using for loop now

but the problem is

users added to thread notification messages will be sooooo long

[golden portal]

the endpoint for adding members to thread doesnt seems to provide a way to add multiple users per call

[vale wing]

You could theoretically asyncio.gather everything but uh you do risk getting ratelimited

[open sail]

ummm

what would happen if you get ratelimited

[vale wing]

Discord doesn't let you send requests for some time

[open sail]

oops

I think I've got this from clearing messages

[vale wing]

How many users get added to thread at one time

[upbeat otter]

Many

[open sail]

I need to add 12 users

I'm adding it by a for loop

which will cause the thread having 12 messages like
{user1} has been added to this thread
{user2} has been added to this thread
{user3} has been added to this thread
...
{user12} has been added to this thread

so I was finding for a method

that can add them once

{user1, user2, user3, ... user12} have been added to this thread

is this clear enough?

[quick gust]

Are you manually sending this message? like with .send()? If so then you don't need to send the message again and again

[golden portal]

huh for a sec i thought they just want a single api call to add multi users into thread, guess it was just logic issue

[queen leaf]

Thank you will go through it

[queen leaf]

Actually could u explain what I need to do in simpler terms? If possible

My smooth brain can't process this

[vale wing]

Discord API doesn't support adding multiple users at once, so it's impossible to merge all these messages into one

If you mean the system message

[vale wing]

Did you get scared cause of lots of constants at the top xd

Scroll down till you see async functions

[queen leaf]

haha yes

[viscid hornet]

users are added 1 at a time normally so its reasonable to suspect the API would work in a similar way

[open sail]

okay

[open sail]

okay, then I'll wait for this feature to be done one day.

[abstract granite]

How do I make a help menu with select menu?

@viscid hornet

[viscid hornet]

wdym by “help menu with select menu”

a help command with a select menu?

[abstract granite]

yeah

:v

[abstract granite]

:v

[viscid hornet]

ask @vapid parcel because im yet to make a proper help command of my own :v

my guess is that you would get all the cogs, load them into a select menu, then get a list of commands and their details like usage, description, etc into a list from those cogs and display them in a paginator

but thats like surface level, idk the intricacies 🤷🏽‍♂️

[abstract granite]

@vapid parcel

[vague spade]

Hello, it does not detect the prefix of my bot.

[vale wing]

What is It

[vale wing]

No PREFIX in your environment

You mistyped it ig

PREFÏX or smth

[vague spade]

There is

[vale wing]

Cause there's a weird dot in code

Make sure it's normal I

[vale wing]

Print os.environ

[vague spade]

I don't understand

[quick gust]

in your code add print(os.environ)

[vale wing]

Before the erroring line so it actually prints

[vague spade]

There is

[quick gust]

what there is?

[vale wing]

According to screenshot you sent there's no

At least I only see traceback

[vague spade]

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=os.environment['PREFİX'])

[vale wing]

Yeah you did add dot above I

Please just type normal I

[quick gust]

PREFIX

assuming thats whats in ur env

[vague spade]

I understand now

Thanks 😊

[quick gust]

^ 🙏

[vague spade]

He says so now

[quick gust]

!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.

[vague spade]

I'm new to Python so I don't know much

[quick gust]

u missed this part

[vague spade]

@quick gust

[hollow coral]

Anyone free to help me out lil bit?

[naive briar]

Just ask

[upbeat otter]

That's the simplest python error 💀

[leaden elbow]

Maybe stop sending ss

[hasty gale]

Hey guys how do i reset bot on discord. My commands wont show up

i have this weird problem where unless i kick a bot from my server the new commands dont show up

[quick gust]

have u tried restarting discord after u update the code?

[whole wind]

does someones knows if is possible to create a discord bot that execs a specific cell on a jupyter notebook in github codespaces? I have a minecraft server located in github codespaces, and i want to create a bot to start the server directly on discord without entering on github

[viscid hornet]

probably need to sync your commands

are these slash commands?

[hasty gale]

yes

[viscid hornet]

need to sync them then

[hasty gale]

from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands
import os

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

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"{bot.user.name}")
    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print(f"Synced {len(synced)} command(s)")
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

[fiery girder]

how do i make a discord bot that takes recording from your mic and plays it in a voice channel

[viscid hornet]

no point in printing the exception btw

[hasty gale]

ok

[viscid hornet]

are any errors printing btw

[fiery girder]

why not

[fiery girder]

there are errors in syncing

like duplicate commands

max commands reached

and more so its better to print errors if you dont have error handling

[naive briar]

If you get an error, it will be printed automatically

No need for any try-except

[fiery girder]

but it will be with traceback and all the jams is hard to navigate lol

[naive briar]

print will print the exact same thing

[hasty gale]

nope

[fiery girder]

print only prints the exception

not the traceback

[naive briar]

Oh right

But that makes everything even worse

[fiery girder]

i would prob print the formatted traceback

from the trackback package i think\

[slate swan]

recommendation: use setup_hook for syncing
better recommendation: make command for syncing

[naive briar]

If there are things that can cause the same exception, you'd have no idea where it came from

[fiery girder]

i have a whole control panel foor syncing reloading cogs unloading cogs restarting all cogs unsyncing commands and shit

[naive briar]

The default one is already good enough

[fiery girder]

well its personal choice tbh

[naive briar]

It just adds more unnecessary code for no benefit or use

[fiery girder]

anyways i was wondering how i can make a bot that can use my mic in my computer and tranmit the voice to a discord voice channel

i made one before but it made recordings of 1 min in my computer then played then and then deleted them but i am trying to figure out how to do it without cause its a pain to wait 1 min

but most of the time it didnt even play it properly even tho the recording had audio it didnt played them

[fiery girder]

got any idea how i can make one of those?

[quick gust]

I don't think bots can receive sound in voice channels

[naive briar]

I remember py-cord being able to record sounds

They called those sinks

[quick gust]

do you mean just playing a voice recording file in a voice channel?

[quick gust]

oh what

[viscid hornet]

because you’ll only get the bottom line with no traceback

[naive briar]

It was long ago

[quick gust]

ah

[naive briar]

Idk if it's still a thing

[quick gust]

apparently it is...

interesting

[fiery girder]

no not in voice channel i wil speak from my computer and it wiill play in in the voice channel

[quick gust]

well I guess if you want to use pycord you could refer to this @fiery girder

[fiery girder]

i will not be in a voice channel

[quick gust]

Oh, you want this to happen realtime?

like, itll play as you speak?

[fiery girder]

yes

[quick gust]

not sure if thats possible...

[fiery girder]

it is

i saw it in a vid but it didnt show the code

[vivid holly]

well if the bot is run locally, you can do that

[fiery girder]

yea i am running it locally

[quick gust]

no clue then

[vivid holly]

get an audio stream from your mic and pipe it to the bot

[fiery girder]

how

[vivid holly]

I haven't done exactly that so idk what libs you would need, but it's definitely possible

[fiery girder]

i got the audio from the mic but it isnt piping it in yor bot

[fiery girder]

i have one right now that makes 1min audio file and plays that

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/QDRA

@vivid holly this makes 1 min audio and plays it

but i want it live

[vivid holly]

you can get it live, but it'll sound like crap according to this stack overflow answer

[fiery girder]

ok lemme try this

[fiery girder]

what is the base format the discord..py uses

[vivid holly]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#audiosource ?

[fiery girder]

its not working it just keep playing nonsense noices

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: OSError: [Errno -9998] Invalid number of channels
it litreely says int he discord.AudioSource that it should be stereo still its dooing this

[fiery girder]

it sounds like someones farting it dont replay my audio

[vivid holly]

but it'll sound like crap
accurate 🤷

[fiery girder]

yea lol

but it doesnt repay my audi

[vivid holly]

like not even a remote resemblence?

[fiery girder]

not

[vivid holly]

that is certainly weird, but then again, I have not done this so maybe it is just unusable

[fiery girder]

it doesnt even match the pitch

[hasty gale]

how do i fix this while still using discord.ext commands

[mossy jacinth]

im trying to make a speechbubble command but i dont know how to turn the speech bubble invisible so you can see the discord background instead of black.. i even asked chat gpt to make it invisible but that ofc just ruined the code so that didnt help at all and i also tried searching through google with no luck at all

I'm using cv2

@bot.slash_command(name="bubble", description="Add a speechbubble to a gif or an image.")
async def bubble(ctx: nextcord.Interaction, file: nextcord.Attachment):
    try:
        file_data = await file.read()
        img_user = cv2.imdecode(np.frombuffer(file_data, np.uint8), cv2.IMREAD_COLOR)
        img_bubble = cv2.imread('bubble2.png', cv2.IMREAD_UNCHANGED)
        img_bubble_resized = cv2.resize(img_bubble, (img_user.shape[1], img_user.shape[0]))
        _, _, _, alpha = cv2.split(img_bubble_resized)
        alpha_inv = cv2.bitwise_not(alpha)
        bubble_alpha_mask = cv2.merge([alpha_inv, alpha_inv, alpha_inv])
        img_content_cut = cv2.bitwise_and(img_user, bubble_alpha_mask)
        img_bytes = cv2.imencode('.png', img_content_cut)[1].tobytes()
        await ctx.response.send_message(file=nextcord.File(io.BytesIO(img_bytes), filename="adminhelper_speechbubble.png"))
    
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Error: {e}")

[viscid hornet]

shouldnt raise any errors

[hasty gale]

yet it does

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import sqlite3

#Database

bot = commands.Bot()

active=False

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"{bot.user.name}")
    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print(f"Synced {len(synced)} command(s)")
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

[viscid hornet]

also i told you not to bother printing the exception

just put py synced = ... print(f"Synced {len(synced)} commands")

you wont get any traceback

do that and tell me the error that comes back

[slate swan]

I think syncing can raise errors

but in certain scenarios

[viscid hornet]

anything to do with the bot can raise errors

[hasty gale]

still gives an error next to tree

[viscid hornet]

tell me what the terminal says

[hasty gale]

'Bot' object has no attribute 'tree'

[viscid hornet]

also btw don't bother printing the error because you'll only get the last line like ```py
discord.ext.commands.errors.CooldownOnCommand(...): ...

[viscid hornet]

thats weird because it definitely exists

[hasty gale]

idk

must be because of these damn databases

[slate swan]

maybe there are forks in the libs?

[hasty gale]

since i imported them i have problems

[viscid hornet]

shouldnt have anything to do with the databases

[viscid hornet]

good question

are you using dpy?

[hasty gale]

no???

[slate swan]

Explains alot

[viscid hornet]

what are you using then

[hasty gale]

for what

[viscid hornet]

thats probably your error

[viscid hornet]

your discord bot?

[hasty gale]

discord.py

[viscid hornet]

are you using discord.py or another library

[hasty gale]

OHHHHH

[viscid hornet]

[hasty gale]

ik now sorry im dumb

[viscid hornet]

that is weird ngl

[viscid hornet]

wait are there any args inside of commands.Bot()

[hasty gale]

no

[viscid hornet]

should look like this (as example) py bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '!', intents = Intents.all())

[viscid hornet]

thats your issue

[viscid hornet]

this will fix the issue (change according to your preferences)

[hasty gale]

nope doesnt work

[viscid hornet]

what did you put

[hasty gale]

the things you told me to

[viscid hornet]

show the whole thing again

[hasty gale]

import random
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import sqlite3

database = sqlite3.connect('data.db')

his IDE might be tweaking ngl

[hasty gale]

i m using pycharm lol

[viscid hornet]

missed await on the tree sync

[hasty gale]

changes absoulutely nothing

[viscid hornet]

lemme test it out

[viscid hornet]

whats the command you were trying to run?

there was a slash command, @bot.tree.command()

[hasty gale]

yes

[viscid hornet]

whats that? show it here

[hasty gale]

@bot.tree.command(name="claim")
async def ping(ctx):
  #script

[viscid hornet]

show the script

also thats supposed to take interaction, not ctx

@bot.command() for a prefix command

[slate swan]

this seems cursed

[hasty gale]

@bot.tree.command(name="claim")
async def ping(ctx):
    global active
    if active==True:
        car_name = "Porsche 911"
        await ctx.response.send_message(f"@{ctx.user.name} has claimed the car! The car is in your garage now!")
        query = "INSERT INTO cars VALUES (?, ?)"
        cursor.execute(query, car_name)
        database.commit()
        active=False
    else:
        await ctx.response.send_message("There is no car to claim!")

how about you try bot.__tree.sync() or smth

this is weird though since tree property should exist

[hasty gale]

doesnt work

[slate swan]

and what is the error?

[hasty gale]

'Bot' object has no attribute 'tree'

[slate swan]

try __tree, not tree

[hasty gale]

doesnt work

[slate swan]

even though this seems so wrong

commands.Bot inheritates from discord.Client and BotBase class which has a tree property

that should return your app_commands.CommandTree

@pale zenith

[hasty gale]

i cant use app_commands cuz i get an error

thgat i cant import it

[shrewd apex]

have you installed the latest discord.py? can you do pip show discord.py

[hasty gale]

yes

[viscid hornet]

watch it be a prehistoric version

[slate swan]

are there for sure 0 forks?

[shrewd apex]

we shall know soon hopefully

[hasty gale]

its 2.3 i think
