wthhhh

[autumn sierra]

i tried making my bot send msg for join and leave with else msg
but its not working
the bot isnt entering

`@client.command(pass_context=True)
async def join(ctx):
if ctx.author.voice:
channel = ctx.message.author.voice.channel
await channel.connect()
await ctx.send("i have joined your party")
else:
await ctx.send("are you dumb? you need to join a voice channel first")

@client.command(pass_context=True)
async def leave(ctx):
if ctx.voice_client:
await ctx.guild.voice_client.disconnect()
await ctx.send("i am leaving the party guys")
else:
await ctx.send("hey dumbass, add me in a voice channel first")`

[obsidian hill]

this when I use sys right??

[obsidian hill]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/v2.3.2/examples/new_member.py

[autumn sierra]

it was bettr if u cud tell whr i did wrong

[autumn sierra]

also showing all greens

[obsidian hill]

what?

[viscid hornet]

its been a long time since i’ve seen “pass context” in a deco

[viscid hornet]

ignore him

dw about it, it happens

oh wait nvm, i thought he was talking to you and saying that was the solution

it literally says “pycache” as the folder name. what do you think the folder is for?

[viscid hornet]

start with some error messages then. saying “it doesnt work” doesnt tell us anything

[autumn sierra]

welp
thr is no error
all greens
that is the prblm
lol

[viscid hornet]

thats for if a member joins a server, not for if a bot is in a vc

[autumn sierra]

nyways not gonna use tht

[viscid hornet]

!traceback | so if theres nothing like this below, whats the issue then?

[unkempt canyon]

[autumn sierra]

the bot isnt doing stuff

i just copied the code frm my old prjct and pasted

then what happnd idk
but the bot used to do it in my old prjct

[viscid hornet]

not joining the voice channel?

[meager rock]

you're probably missing message_content intents. also that code is outdated.

[autumn sierra]

yes finally u got it

[viscid hornet]

fuck. i keep forgetting to check intents

[viscid hornet]

!intents | double check these and tell me what it says

[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.

[autumn sierra]

daang
literally 2dy mrng it worked in my old prjct
but yes i did update it wihn i started out my new prjct
mayb cuz of tht

[meager rock]

can I see your client variable definition, and the intents you used?

[autumn sierra]

umm idk what u mean
lemme just send somn in https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/1233166567114674346

[viscid hornet]

yes thats how imports work

[obsidian hill]

I still need help doin this 😂

[viscid hornet]

didnt you already get your question answered?

[obsidian hill]

Nah

[viscid hornet]

stop saying def. say function or method if its inside a class

[obsidian hill]

I did ```py
from ..main import main

and got ```    from ..main import main
ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package```

[viscid hornet]

hmm thats weird

ask the person who gave you that answer

i couldnt tell you ngl

[obsidian hill]

didnt you tell me to do that? 😅

[viscid hornet]

no??

[obsidian hill]

Idk who did

I think someone suggested sys but It didnt work

or I didnt do it right

[viscid hornet]

i said if you’re looking at proj root (like on the side where it says the parent folder name), you would do “from proj root.main import main”

[obsidian hill]

ah

well idk what else to do then

[viscid hornet]

<prefix>ping

not even close

its a function arg

yes because you need to use your bot prefix

whats the prefix for your bot?

so replace “<prefix>” with “!”

yes, obviously

opens fine

why are you looking at images??

[hushed galleon]

it shows up correctly when you're on the official documentation
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html#positional

[viscid hornet]

can you rephrase?

@blazing beacon

how long did it take you to realise you replace “<prefix>” with your prefix in “<prefix>ping”?

@vapid parcel look at this shit

user

yes because you do <prefix><command>

so !help

help is the name and ! is the prefix

just make commands that do stuff

i feel like you should be learning python

!res

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[viscid hornet]

learn python first ☝️

@vapid parcel come here rn and see this

stop saying def. say function or method if its in a class. be clear. this is like the fourth time i’ve told you this

its the fourth time i’ve said it and you’ve blown me off. just take my advice - you’re the one asking for help after all

[hushed galleon]

psst, #discord-bots message
as much as you want them to do more basic programs first, we should still teach or direct them to specific concepts to learn as it becomes relevant to whatever they need help with

[viscid hornet]

do you read what i write?

where are you getting this from?

[viscid hornet]

lowkey didnt know about the pins. thanks for the advice. i’ll be more lenient and liberal (idk if thats the word) with my advice

then you should’ve heeded my advice long ago

rephrase

you can set the name of the command to be that, but that’s not advisable at all

then you cant run any commands

[hushed galleon]

on_message would be necessary for this

[viscid hornet]

i cant tell if you want slash commands or not

[viscid hornet]

he said prefix call tho?

[hushed galleon]

i dont think they strictly meant how would it be done via the commands extension, just how can it be done at all

(dpy can definitely handle responding to a bare slash)

the nice part of separating prefixes from the command name is that it's easier to change the prefix, like having a different prefix per guild as set by admin, or having multiple prefixes work for the same command

the design decisions were made like nearly a decade ago, when discord's slash commands didnt exist and there weren't dedicated bot accounts

[viscid hornet]

how do people have custom prefixes linked to a database?

whos “he”

oh danny

mf went through a whole story arc 😭 @blazing beacon @vapid parcel

[hushed galleon]

i think the typical options are either passing an async function to command_prefix=, or overriding the get_prefix() method

[viscid hornet]

which one is better / easier?

i dont wanna load 200 prefixes 😭🙏🏽

[blazing beacon]

💀 he got development

[hushed galleon]

not really sure, i guess it depends on preference / whichever you learn first

[blazing beacon]

the latter is how i do it

skidded from a tutorial ofc

[hushed galleon]

if you have a github account, you can go to https://gist.github.com/ and create a public or secret gist
for example, here's one of my gists:
https://gist.github.com/thegamecracks/0f9ab7ad3982e65ff4aa429acb39cc4e

[hushed galleon]

async def get_prefix(bot, message):
    return something_from_db

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=get_prefix, ...)``` ```py
class MyBot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(command_prefix="not needed", ...)

    async def get_prefix(self, message):
        return something_from_db```

oh, like to suggest stuff to the library? sure, discussions would be fine for help-related things while issues would be suited for bug reports or feature requests

no those were just examples for dynamic prefixes

if you want something custom that doesn't look like <prefix><command>, on_message would be more suitable

you can still write commands at the same time if your on_message in a listener

bot = commands.Bot(...)

@bot.command()
async def add(ctx, x: int, y: int):
    await ctx.send(f"{x} plus {y} is {x + y}.")

@bot.listen()
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content == "!":
        await message.channel.send("Hello! I'm a cool bot!")```

kind of, some of dpy's decorators will look at the function name

in the case of command() and listen(), they have a parameter to let you specify the name separately from the function's name

[hushed galleon]

@bot.command(name="add")
async def my_add_command(ctx, x: int, y: int): ...

@bot.listen("on_message")
async def greet_when_prefix_is_sent(message): ...```

all function objects have a __name__ attribute which i assume discord.py uses if you don't provide a name in the decorator call ```py

def foo(): ...
foo.name
'foo'```

[strong saddle]

anyone know how to fix this?

[hushed galleon]

just dpy

[viscid hornet]

wait so how would i have a default prefix and get a prefix from the db if they have a custom one? like how would the custom prefix stuff work

thats a keyword argument, so you assign something specifically to that. you can also have positional arguments, which are listed in order

[hushed galleon]

you'll always need to query the database (or a cache) to know if it exists, e.g. ```py
async def get_prefix(bot, message):
if message.guild is None:
return DEFAULT_PREFIX

async with bot.pool.acquire() as conn:
    prefix = await conn.fetchval("SELECT prefix FROM guild WHERE guild_id = $1", message.guild.id)

return prefix or DEFAULT_PREFIX```

[viscid hornet]

ah ok i see. what about running commands with said prefix?

say i have two servers, one is assigned “!” only for their server and the other has “?” assigned only for their server. how do i run commands using the two for both servers?

i’ll just make 10 bot instances, each with different command prefixes

[hushed galleon]

every time a message is received, presumably excluding bots, it'll call your prefix function to determine what prefixes it should accept for that message

[viscid hornet]

what do you want them for

[viscid hornet]

oh okay 👌. how do i pass in a guild though? or does it get the guild automatically

yes. you can (pretty much) make any table in sql

why would you want to do that when discord has already done it for you

!vps

!hosting

[unkempt canyon]

Discord Bot Hosting

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

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

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

[hushed galleon]

you'll always have a message object, so you can get the guild from that

[viscid hornet]

why would you want to make your own? just call the API for chat history

[viscid hornet]

does it always give bot and message args?

[loud sierra]

can someone pls help with render

render uses python 3.11.9 and its having a problem with wheel in requirements.txt

i downgraded to 0.37.1 still got same error (in wheel)

[viscid hornet]

why make your own db when you can just get the data from discord

[loud sierra]

"note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: subprocess-exited-with-error"

[viscid hornet]

not about #discord-bots , try #python-discussion instead

[loud sierra]

okay

[hushed galleon]

hosting requires hardware, internet service, and electricity, so reputable services like digitalocean will charge you upfront to help pay the cost of running their business

[hushed galleon]

#discord-bots message for a command_prefix function yes, if you're overriding get_prefix() then you'll get (self, message) which is basically the same

[viscid hornet]

“hey. heres a bunch of hardware that will be perfect for your bot. all we ask is $2 a month-“
“replit.”
“wh- wha-?”
“replit.”

[blissful grove]

How can I get the supports commands badge for my discord bot? It uses slash commands but there still seems to be no badge

[robust fulcrum]

I think you need to invite bot with application commands option checked?

[coral ermine]

if you add commands as a prefix it doesnt work

you need to use this ```py
@bot.tree.command(name="your_command_name", description="Your command description")
async def your_command(interaction: discord.Interaction):
# Your command logic here
await interaction.response.send_message("Command executed!")

the discription is what shows up in the slash menu

like this bot i made like ask would be the command name and "Ask me anything" will be the command discription]

[golden portal]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#how-do-i-send-a-message-to-a-specific-channel

[coral ermine]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == bot.user:  # Ignore bot's own messages
        return

    # Get the channel where the message was sent
    channel = message.channel

    # Get the member object representing the user who sent the message
    member = message.author

    # Check if the user is the server owner
    if member == message.guild.owner:
        print(f"{member.name} is the server owner.")

    # Check if the user has the "Administrator" permission
    if member.guild_permissions.administrator:
        print(f"{member.name} has administrator permissions.")

point 3

without the bot you can just right click the user ans see the user id

bro put all your concerns in one message up im unable to keep up😂😂😂

[quick gust]

No u can't

[coral ermine]

U cant unless its your own message

no it will come in the channel the best you can do is make the bot delete it as soon as the message shows up

what exactly are you planning on?

Check discord.py api docs it will have everyting that can be done

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html

no its the user id of the user who wrote the triger message

This will send "hello" in the channel with that channel id

okay

guild means server

yes

server has many categories and catetories have many channels

example: this server/guild is called python in that we are in the "topical chat" category and this is the discord-bots text channel

yes there are many kinds of channels

this is a text channel

there is voice channel and threads

can i see your bots code im finding it difficult to understand wo it

[blissful grove]

Ive done it like this on my code as well. I did two bot projects. It shows up on one of em, but it doesnt show up in the other one

 
from commands.plzhelp import plzhelp


class PersistentViewBot(commands.Bot):
    def __int__(self):
        intents = discord.Intents.all()
        super().__init__(command_prefix="/", intents=intents)

    async def setup_hook(self) -> None:
        self.add_view(ClaimTicketButtonView(timeout=None))
        self.add_view(UnclaimTicketButtonView(timeout=None))


bot = PersistentViewBot(command_prefix="/", intents=discord.Intents.all())

This is my initializer 👆

and then one of the slash commands /plzhelp

@bot.tree.command(name="plzhelp", guild=GUILD, description="View a list of commands")
async def plzhelp_command(interaction: discord.Interaction):  # Help Command
    await plzhelp(interaction,
                  allowed_role_ids=allowed_role_ids,
                  command_logs_channel_id=command_logs_channel_id,
                  bot=bot)

[coral ermine]

Oh, idk it's always shown up for me

[blissful grove]

GGWP

[obsidian hill]

In this cmd

if message.content.startswith('$test'):
        await message.reply('This is a test', mention_author=True)

How could I make it run a function then send the message?

[turbid condor]

define the function and run it as you would normally run a function

[obsidian hill]

Ok thats what I did but got a weird error so Js making sure I did it right

[turbid condor]

then tell us what u did

so we can point out the mistake

[obsidian hill]

Its regarding a whole seperate thing, nothing to do with discord but ill send it

[turbid condor]

and tbh this is not a command

[obsidian hill]

what? 💀

anyways here python if message.content.startswith('$gen'): gen() await message.reply('Video Generation has started, please ensure your Direct Messages are public so our bot can send you your result.', mention_author=True) this the cmd

this the error

  File "C:\Users\liama\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 441, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "C:\Users\liama\Downloads\RedGen Files\Generator\bot.py", line 57, in on_message

    if settings.config["reddit"]["creds"]["2fa"]:
TypeError: There are no type variables left in dict['reddit']

[obsidian hill]

gen() is defined in functions.py and imported from there to bot.py

[turbid condor]

well the error is telling you that the structure of your the dict from which you are accessing variables might differ

from what you are using

so you should check what the structure of the dict looks like

and then change your statement accordingly

[obsidian hill]

well it works in main.py no error, just when calling the function in bot.py it gives that

[turbid condor]

that's what the error says

[obsidian hill]

yea but idk what to do now

[obsidian hill]

Im not great w python

[turbid condor]

well even I don't have any expericence with reddit and their api so can't help in this case

[obsidian hill]

Is it an issue with the reddit gen stuff?

[turbid condor]

yes

[obsidian hill]

damn. Bc the generation works just fine with main.py but the second I put the main func in a cmd it breaks

[turbid condor]

it occurs here File "C:\Users\liama\Downloads\RedGen Files\Generator\reddit\subreddit.py", line 24, in get_subreddit_threads if settings.config["reddit"]["creds"]["2fa"]:

line 24 in subreddit.py

well you can try creating a post in #1035199133436354600 and someone who knows about the issue might help

[obsidian hill]

Hm I might be able to remove that, thats for when I had my reddit 2fa on but now that I dont I can prob remove it

[obsidian hill]

I think the problem might be since its discord when the script tries to print to console discord doesnt know what to do

[turbid condor]

i doubt that's the issue

[obsidian hill]

alr then idk 😂

I just dont understand how when I run main.py it runs the main() function, now Im running the main function in another file and its breaking

@turbid condor Is there a specific way I need to call the function?

Like await main() ???

idfk 😭

[turbid condor]

nope

[obsidian hill]

well shi

[turbid condor]

await is used for coroutines

[obsidian hill]

are you avaliable to vc? If you wouldnt mind I can screenshare and maybe you could better help me here

[turbid condor]

and this function you are using isn't a coro

well sry can't i'm also occupied with my stuff

[obsidian hill]

alr nw

[obsidian hill]

How do I dm a user a mp4?

me?

[blazing beacon]

oh crap

i forgot to reply to the message

[obsidian hill]

😂 ?

ah all good

[blazing beacon]

not you

a few slight corrections

@bot.listen('on_message')
async def message_listener(msg):
    if msg.content == "!":
        await msg.channel.send(...)

in any case i think you should consider using commands an example is something like this

@bot.command()
async def command_name(ctx, arg1=None, arg2=None):
    await ctx.send(...)

[flint stirrup]

General question: I'm writing my own bot from scratch, but I'm largely confused on why the docs & examples for discord.py don't really use a class that inherits from discord.bot
Essentially I want a bot that does actions when messages are sent, deleted, or edited, and has custom command support. The docs & examples all basically never use a discord.bot-inherited class, and yet they do show a lot of examples of using a class that inherits from commands.Cog

I'm just at a general loss as to how to structure the bot

[golden portal]

inheriting from commands.Cog is because you wanna create a Cog class, that's required because you want the functionalities of a Cog class and it can load properly with bot.add_cog

while, you dont necessarily need to inherit the commands.Bot class, because rarely would you want to override methods or modify the functionality of a Bot class.

For instance, this inherits the commands.Bot because they want to use and override the Bot.setup_hook, it's a necessary step. But you dont really have to do it if you dont need it.

[unkempt canyon]

examples/advanced_startup.py line 18

class CustomBot(commands.Bot):```

[flint stirrup]

Oh I see, so you'd only create this child class to explicitly replace the built-in class variables & methods, but otherwise there isn't any benefit to doing so

[golden portal]

yea, or if you want to add attributes or whatever, since the convenience of the bot instance is you have access to it in pretty much most scope in dpy

which act as a global variable

[cinder remnant]

!start

[unkempt canyon]

Star / Wildcard imports

Wildcard imports are import statements in the form from <module_name> import *. What imports like these do is that they import everything [1] from the module into the current module's namespace [2]. This allows you to use names defined in the imported module without prefixing the module's name.

Example:

>>> from math import *
>>> sin(pi / 2)
1.0

This is discouraged, for various reasons:

Example:

>>> from custom_sin import sin
>>> from math import *
>>> sin(pi / 2)  # uses sin from math rather than your custom sin

• Potential namespace collision. Names defined from a previous import might get shadowed by a wildcard import.
• Causes ambiguity. From the example, it is unclear which sin function is actually being used. From the Zen of Python [3]: Explicit is better than implicit.
• Makes import order significant, which they shouldn't. Certain IDE's sort import functionality may end up breaking code due to namespace collision.

How should you import?

• Import the module under the module's namespace (Only import the name of the module, and names defined in the module can be used by prefixing the module's name)

>>> import math
>>> math.sin(math.pi / 2)

• Explicitly import certain names from the module

>>> from math import sin, pi
>>> sin(pi / 2)

Conclusion: Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those! [3]

[1] If the module defines the variable __all__, the names defined in __all__ will get imported by the wildcard import, otherwise all the names in the module get imported (except for names with a leading underscore)
[2] Namespaces and scopes
[3] Zen of Python

Comically large is so large I can't even convert it to integer

[viscid hornet]

why does that lowkey make sense

the whole point of making a message listener is for you to rename the function while still keeping the same event

in .event, the name of the function has to be the event you're watching for

but in .listen(), you can add the name of the event in the brackets and then rename the function itself

@bot.listen('on_message')
async def my_very_cool_message_listener(message):
    pass```

it's an event

and yes its dpy built in

rephrase

you lost me

i answered your question

events are only for dpy

no, they're unique to every channel

you need to check the server before the channel

there is a .fetch_channel() function, now that i think about it

theres too many

what city shuts off all the electricity at a certain time??

doesnt mean you need to turn off all the electricity

basically i need to read a line of text from the output, grab a specific line from that output, and then store that line into a variable to be used later on in the process

Confidence Threshold:
31

0%


100%

{
  "predictions": [
    {
      "x": 115.5,
      "y": 227,
      "width": 79,
      "height": 88,
      "confidence": 0.374,
      "class": "rotten",
      "points": [```

for example, this is an output. I need to find "confidence": 0.374 and store it into a variable to be used later

thing is, i have no clue how to do it in one execution

yes

the thing i sent is from roboflow

im using machine image learning and i need to figure out how to store its results

yep pretty much

lol im a highschooler and its for a class im taking

[viscid hornet]

#data-science-and-ml ⬅️ you probably misclicked

[primal gust]

oh sorry.

[viscid hornet]

this is a discord bot help channel

[viscid hornet]

its alright. you'll get better help over there is what im saying

[primal gust]

that got me confused

are those libraries?

im not working with a database rn tho, that's supposed to be placed on RPI

raspberry pi

thanks man

have a good one

[viscid hornet]

not for here ❌

channel literally says discord bots, not ML or AI

maybe. can this conversation move to #data-science-and-ml? definitely. should you go there to talk about this stuff? yes.

yes

this channel has an ID of: 343944376055103488

[upbeat otter]

yes the discord api works on ids only.

you have to invite the bot

otherwise imagine that random bots could be joining your server and nuking it

I mean if you're the server owner yes

or have admin permission

but you cannot make the bot join any random server. it has to be a server where you have the permissions to add a bot or you are the server owner

what causes this?

[upbeat otter]

do you want to keep the memos separate for every server or do you wanna make it common

[viscid hornet]

they will never do that

[upbeat otter]

disnake user 👁️👁️

[upbeat otter]

human npcs are counted as bots maybe it's true

[viscid hornet]

in each server:

1. each person uses their own memo channel
2. each person uses the same memo channel

[upbeat otter]

how did you actually understand what he was asking😭

why don't you use a database then

[viscid hornet]

he's brought me down to his level of brainrot 😭

[viscid hornet]

database important yes store show momes

[viscid hornet]

i should put on my resume i can speak some cancel13

[upbeat otter]

moms

[viscid hornet]

mems

bot need db always store channel history read message read channel history. no db test channel db, bad not good

[upbeat otter]

it's not as efficient. you'll probably rate-limit yourself

RATELIMITING
If your bot makes too many requests to the discord API, then discord will temporarily (for some time) ban your IP address from accessing the API.

Every history fetch will make many requests to the API.
Then you will have to filter all those messages later which is a very tedious (hard and unnecessary) job.
Also, this will make your bot very slow until your IP gets banned.

if message.author.bot:
    #This means sender is a bot```

[viscid hornet]

no use db channel. bad practice ❌

use db. we no use channel db it only db no channel db or db channel

api call more expensive than cache call. they is use cache call which get info from memory. too many api call go bankrupt

[viscid hornet]

(i can speak cancel13)

[upbeat otter]

I can speak cancel√169

good

use sqlite3

or an online noSQL db

[viscid hornet]

❌

wrong link nvm

!d sqlite3 | but learn this first

[unkempt canyon]

sqlite3

Source code: Lib/sqlite3/

SQLite is a C library that provides a lightweight disk-based database that doesn’t require a separate server process and allows accessing the database using a nonstandard variant of the SQL query language. Some applications can use SQLite for internal data storage. It’s also possible to prototype an application using SQLite and then port the code to a larger database such as PostgreSQL or Oracle.

The sqlite3 module was written by Gerhard Häring. It provides an SQL interface compliant with the DB-API 2.0 specification described by PEP 249, and requires SQLite 3.7.15 or newer.

This document includes four main sections:

[viscid hornet]

You should have ran and hosted it in the dream too that way wouldn't have to worry after waking up

Imagination is a wild thing you could have imagined it all

[viscid hornet]

lowkey imagined texting my friends, they gave responses and then freaked out when i looked down at my hands and there was no phone to text them back with

[turbid condor]

See imagination is wild

[golden portal]

abc refers to Abstract Base Class, it's an OOP concept that defines common attr/methods that are inherited by multiple different classes. but it's not meant to be used directly, Messageable is an abstract class. Usable classes like DMChannel, TextChannel, etc inherits Messageable class

i kinda make it in simple terms but you get the idea

[tawdry vector]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import bot_token
import details



intents = discord.Intents.all()

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

bot.run(bot_token.TOKEN)``` Guys my !hello doesn't work

@viscid hornet

I've seen u helping a lot of ppl can you help me too sorry for the ping

The on_message works here but not !hello

[viscid hornet]

im biking rn

[tawdry vector]

Oh ok drive safe #1233432887680831610

.

[quick gust]

you need to add await bot.process_commands(message) at the end of your event, outside the if condition

or you can change @bot.event to @bot.listen()

[tawdry vector]

Ahha ty mate

[obsidian hill]

How do I stop this discord timeout thingy? WARNING discord.gateway Shard ID None heartbeat blocked for more than 60 seconds.

[quick gust]

are you using any blocking module?

!blocking

[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.

async libraries

• The standard async library - asyncio
• Asynchronous web requests - aiohttp
• Talking to PostgreSQL asynchronously - asyncpg
• MongoDB interactions asynchronously - motor
• Check out this list for even more!

[obsidian hill]

my return message is awating but the code isnt, idk if I could run an await w it

wait no nevermind, nothing in the command is awaited

How can I detect when a message is sent if the id of the channel is ...

[young dagger]

Can you share the code?

!pastebin

[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.

[obsidian hill]

I alr did it

it was simple fix

[young dagger]

What do you exactly want to do?

[obsidian hill]

Like I said ive already figure it out. thanks

Formatting code on Discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

[viscid hornet]

and your issue is that when a message is sent in a DM, there is no guild, so .guild returns None

and None doesn't have any attributes, so None.id isnt a real thing

and therefore it raises errors

[viscid hornet]

doesnt look like anything is wrong with it

use your own pc

just use a .env file or read it from a .txt file

i use a txt file since it doesnt add to the imports

encryption in this case doesnt really mean anything. just dont share your token directly and you have nothing to worry about

[upbeat otter]

format your code like this
```py

your code here

[sick birch]

no, putting your token in .env doesn't "encrypt" it

the reason we put secrets in .envs is because it's usually .gitignored, so it doesn't get pushed to version control, and also, when developing, you can view all your secrets in one place easily.

but the most important reason to use environment variables is to be 12FA: avoid putting configuration in code (and by extension, secrets) so you can deploy the same code in multiple environments with only configuration changes

just good practice stuff

[viscid hornet]

i said “or” for a reason

do either

if not message.guild:
    ...```

!code | also use syntax highlighting

#discord-bots message

Its fixed ty tho

[viscid hornet]

ohh alr then

[viscid hornet]

.author.bot (bool)

its .author, not auther

[flint stirrup]

Can someone give me a high-level explanation on the differences between discord.Client and discord.ext.commands.bot ? I'm having trouble understanding when to use one over the other

[viscid hornet]

ok so Bot is like Client v2. it allows you to use cogs, remove spaghetti code, has more features

lemme get a list for you

[flint stirrup]

So most if not all the time I would be better off using bot over client

[brazen raft]

Maybe. It definitely leaves room to expand from

[sick birch]

yes, unless you're not doing any command stuff and you really just want a quick and simple client

[echo dock]

Who can help me i have got a problem the error is too long i cant send here come MP

[limpid apex]

Anyone know why this isn't editing the message?

[viscid hornet]

literally tells you your error in the traceback

[viscid hornet]

lemme test it out

[echo dock]

where is traceback ?

[limpid apex]

😭

[viscid hornet]

the thing you just sent me

[limpid apex]

Line 5 man

[echo dock]

Well yes but I don't know how to correct it

[viscid hornet]

"permission denied" yes but where's the error

[limpid apex]

Nono, thats his code

i was showing where traceback was

[echo dock]

And why is permission denied ?

[limpid apex]

🤷

[brazen raft]

Print the path you're trying to use and print the current working directory's path

See whether the path you're trying to use is in fact under the current working directory

I mean, I also have the suspicion that your cwd is C:\Windows\System32 because of the specific circumstance of using Python from MS Store

Either check whether the guild attribute gives None or the channel type is dm

[upbeat otter]

just ask the user if they are in dm Or not

auto bot? 💀like the transformers?

[brazen raft]

Private means it is a private dm (not a group, just with one user)

What

[viscid hornet]

just use whatever it returns to determine if its a dm or not

[viscid hornet]

code works fine. did you forget to save?

[limpid apex]

No

I'm using replit it autosaves lol

[viscid hornet]

test it again

[limpid apex]

k

[viscid hornet]

not replit

[brazen raft]

If it equals "private" or discord.ChannelType.private

[limpid apex]

Ion got a good enough pc to use vscode lol

or anything really

[viscid hornet]

!d discord.ChannelType.private

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ChannelType.private

A private text channel. Also called a direct message.

[viscid hornet]

kekw

show your code rn

[brazen raft]

@wide plaza You should refer to the documentations for things like this

[limpid apex]

k

[viscid hornet]

[viscid hornet]

ah its an indentation error

your callback is outside of the class

[limpid apex]

OHHHH

im fuckin stupid lol

[viscid hornet]

how did it not tell you there was an indentation error? 😭

[limpid apex]

🤷

Next question

can u edit embeds

[viscid hornet]

[limpid apex]

:D

[viscid hornet]

you can edit anything

[limpid apex]

yay

for editing an embed you would make a new one right?

[viscid hornet]

!d discord.Message.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.edit

await edit(*, content=..., embed=..., embeds=..., attachments=..., suppress=False, delete_after=None, allowed_mentions=..., view=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the message.

The content must be able to be transformed into a string via `str(content)`.

Changed in version 1.3: The `suppress` keyword-only parameter was added.

Changed in version 2.0: Edits are no longer in-place, the newly edited message is returned instead.

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

[limpid apex]

and set content to the embed

k

[viscid hornet]

anything there can be edited

[brazen raft]

Why would it when everything is indented correctly syntactically although not semantically

[viscid hornet]

or at least a multiple args error, because self is outside a class

[viscid hornet]

[brazen raft]

It's just a parameter

[viscid hornet]

ohhh

[brazen raft]

That function is probably never used in their program

[viscid hornet]

i see why it was saying there was no response

[viscid hornet]

[limpid apex]

can I make multiple buttons in one class as well?

[viscid hornet]

limit is 25

[limpid apex]

k

what would 2 look like?

in code form, I mean

[brazen raft]

I think it fills rows of up to five

Oh

[viscid hornet]

either: ```py
class MyView(ui.View):
...
@ui.button(button 1 kwargs)
...

@ui.button(button 2 kwargs)
...```

[limpid apex]

Ty!

[viscid hornet]

or ```py
class MyButton1(ui.Button):
...

class MyButton2(ui.Button):
...

class MyView(ui.View):
def init(self):
self.add_item(MyButton1())
self.add_item(MyButton2())```

[limpid apex]

I see

thank you

[viscid hornet]

i've used the second example for paginators because if there's only 1 page, you cant use attributes in the decorators so you cant set the last buttons to be disabled conditionally (if that makes sense)

[limpid apex]

I see

[viscid hornet]

so you cant do something like this ```py
class MyView(ui.View):
def init(self):
super().init()
self.my_var = 5

@ui.button(label = self.my_var, ...)
async def ...(...):
    ...

[upbeat otter]

why are you teaching basic python here

😭

[viscid hornet]

i didnt know it

you cant send commands in groups because bots dont take friend requests or interact with links

[upbeat otter]

😭bro

[viscid hornet]

not joking asw 😭

[upbeat otter]

well that's fine then but how tf do you work with OOPs then 😭

[viscid hornet]

also you're not comparing it to anything. you're most likely doing py print(discord.ChannelType.private)
and wondering why it doesn't magically make the comparison you want

[upbeat otter]

a bot will never join a group

[viscid hornet]

but why group no command type compare?

[shrewd apex]

wouldn't you do that in the function where u pass the pages to it?

[upbeat otter]

ok Asher is here 😳

[upbeat otter]

stop being C13 😭

[viscid hornet]

for me, i pass the pages to the view

3rd time py if message.guild: # something if in a server, None if in dm

[shrewd apex]

and u can still disable it inside the init no? checking length of pages

[upbeat otter]

if isinstance(message.channel.type, discord.ChannelType.private):
   #Message is in dm

[shrewd apex]

sup

[upbeat otter]

all good wby

[shrewd apex]

exams around the corner 😔

need to start studying (from tmrw)

[upbeat otter]

F, good luck. you're in uni?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[upbeat otter]

ic

[viscid hornet]

oh yeah. my dumbass just made them separate buttons and added them to the view with a disabled kwarg instead of accessing them through self.children

[shrewd apex]

i am pretty sure u can access it via self.button_decorated_method.disabled as well

!d discord.ui.button

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.button

@discord.ui.button(*, label=None, custom_id=None, disabled=False, style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2>, emoji=None, row=None)```
A decorator that attaches a button to a component.

The function being decorated should have three parameters, `self` representing the [`discord.ui.View`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View), the [`discord.Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction) you receive and the [`discord.ui.Button`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.Button) being pressed.

Note

Buttons with a URL cannot be created with this function. Consider creating a [`Button`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.Button) manually instead. This is because buttons with a URL do not have a callback associated with them since Discord does not do any processing with it.

[viscid hornet]

no like in the view __init__ where i pass the data: py class MyPaginator: def __init__(self, pages, ...): self.pages = pages if len(self.pages) == 1: for i in [3, 4]: self.children[i].disabled = True

so if there's only 1 page, it disables the buttons to move forward

[shrewd apex]

hmm no i was talking about accessing the button via its decorated method name instead of children

class A:
    def __init__(self):
        self.foo.disabled = True
    @discord.ui.button()
    async def foo(self, inter, button): ...

[viscid hornet]

fuck off

no way its that easy

[shrewd apex]

i think it is? been a while since i have used dpy noe

[viscid hornet]

what the hell did you write 😭

[shrewd apex]

yeah their button decorator returns a button object

[viscid hornet]

thank you and fuck you for this knowledge 🙏

[shrewd apex]

;-;

[upbeat otter]

disabling children on purpose is wild

[upbeat otter]

same 😔it's not exciting anymore as it once was

discord.Embed

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

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

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

New in version 2.0.

x == y Checks if two embeds are equal.

yea

Good for ya..

[vapid parcel]

@viscid hornet if you don't need me for something important, do not fucking ping me to this server. It's really annoying when you ping me 3 times in a row for something I don't care abt.

Instead of making fun of someone for not understanding how to do something, maybe help them understand, instead of pinging me n making fun of them.

You could maybe not be a dick, and maybe HELP them and teach them something, sounds shocking.. but you should try it!! 😁

[viscid hornet]

my brother in christ, what do you think i’ve been trying to do ☠️

[viscid hornet]

alr nps wont happen again

[vapid parcel]

Clearly not man, not to be a dick but dude, you are "helping" but when they don't understand, you make fun of them.

If you don't wanna help anymore, just move on, let someone else help.

Im sorry but its kinda annoying, we all start somewhere man.

[noble estuary]

yo is there a channel for people looking for jobs? looking for someone with experience in python (flask) and frontend development

[viscid hornet]

theres #career-advice but i think this is

!rule 9

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

9. Do not offer or ask for paid work of any kind.

[noble estuary]

oh damn 😭

[viscid hornet]

nah man. guys not listening to me to the point whee my advice dont mean anything anymore. whats the point of trying to help someone if they wont listen?

[viscid hornet]

yeah ima lowkey do this more. im so done with that guy

[vapid parcel]

also, I wanna show you battle ship

we have battle ship inside of discord 😭

[viscid hornet]

go outside 😭😭

this mf learned pillow for battleships

make chess next 🤑

[vapid parcel]

already have

[spice warren]

The irony of this statement coming from you is insane

[viscid hornet]

?? since when

get it integ with discord

[viscid hornet]

actually on the topic of help, #1233479221985284186 🙏🏽

[viscid hornet]

1. no you wont be ratelimited because its a call to cache.
2. you cant send a message with a custom id
3. you get a message link through the context menu somewhere near replies. to format it, do: https://discord.com/channels/<guild_id>/<channel_id>/<message_id>
4. you can check a message’s attachments through its attributes i think

!d discord.Message.attachments

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.attachments

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

[viscid hornet]

there you go

you can then check the file extension to see if its an image file

send a message with the same attachment or edit the message with a new attachment?

just get the attachment, store it as a variable and send a new message with said attachments

[wide plaza]

i will test it

[viscid hornet]

you need the ID to make the url so you already have it

[warped cave]

anyone know how i can make a command that sends multiple images and text ? i now use "file: file = discord.File". But i can only make it send 1 image that way

[brazen raft]

The files parameter exists

You can attach up to 10 files in one message though

[warped cave]

yeah but i dont know how it works, i now have this code for it:

bot.group()
async def viper_haven(ctx):
 
    file: File = discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Pictures\botniet.png', filename="bot.png")
    embed = discord.Embed()
    embed.set_image(url="attachment://bot.png")
    await ctx.send(embed=embed, file=file)```

[brazen raft]

It's a matter of doing more discord.File instantiations and passing them all as a list to the files parameter

[viscid hornet]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.send

oh wait i forgot the bot is offline

there's a files kwarg that takes a list of File objects

so py await ctx.send(files = [File1, File2, File3])

[warped cave]

so i have to make for every image a different discord.file and than at the bottom `await ctx.send(files = [File1, File2, File3])

[viscid hornet]

yes

[warped cave]

ahhh okay, thank you

and the await ctx.send(embed=embed, file=file) should still be in the code

[slate swan]

Bruh

[viscid hornet]

!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:

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.

[viscid hornet]

we have this for a reason

87 more lines than what should be posted in here

[warped cave]

i now have this:

async def cypher_ascend_a(ctx):
  
  
    file: File = discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Downloads\cypher ascend-a one-way.png', filename="cypher ascend-a one-way.png")
    embed = discord.Embed()
    file: File = discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Downloads\cypher A site ascend.png', filename="cypher A site ascend.png")
    embed = discord.Embed()
    embed.set_image(url="attachment://cypher ascend-a one-way.png")
    embed.set_image(url="attachment://cypher A site ascend.png")
    await ctx.send('Aline yourself under this line in the generator and aim at the spike in the sky to get this heaven one-way')
    await ctx.send(files = [File1, File2, File3])
    await ctx.send(embed=embed, file=file)```

it doenst take the images on the await ctx.send(files = ['cypher ascend-a one-way.png','cypher A site ascend.png' ]) line

[viscid hornet]

you have to convert them to file objects

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None, bulk=True, reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages) to delete messages even if they are your own. Having [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history) is also needed to retrieve message history.

Changed in version 2.0: The `reason` keyword-only parameter was added.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[viscid hornet]

you do realise you could’ve just sent it as an actual link i can click on, right?

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/6X6Q

why do you have a bunch of “source_” variables at the top? you know you can just use whatever you’re assigning to them to skip the unnecessary extra step

an embed shouldnt matter

cleaner code >> working code

[warped cave]

how do i convert them to file objects

[viscid hornet]

lemme check for you 👌

[viscid hornet]

discord.File(“your file path”)

!d discord.File

[unkempt canyon]

discord.File

class discord.File(fp, filename=None, *, spoiler=..., description=None)```
A parameter object used for [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send) for sending file objects.

Note

File objects are single use and are not meant to be reused in multiple [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send)s.

[warped cave]

what is suppost to be on spoiler and description

[viscid hornet]

i think description is for if you hover the mouse over the picture and spoiler is just this

(mods its a cat photo)

[warped cave]

ahhh

but i think im doing something wrong

[viscid hornet]

you can leave them blank, it doesnt change anything

[viscid hornet]

what are you doing?

[warped cave]

async def cypher_ascend_a(ctx):

    class discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Pictures\Cypher setup\ascend\A site\cypher A site ascend.png', filename="cypher ascend-a one-way.png", *, spoiler=..., description=None)
    file: File = discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Pictures\Cypher setup\ascend\A site\cypher A site ascend.png', filename="cypher ascend-a one-way.png")
    embed = discord.Embed()
    file: File = discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Pictures\Cypher setup\ascend\A site\cypher ascend-a one-way.png', filename="cypher A site ascend.png")
    embed = discord.Embed()
    embed.set_image(url="attachment://cypher ascend-a one-way.png")
    embed.set_image(url="attachment://cypher A site ascend.png")
    files
    await ctx.send('Aline yourself under this line in the generator and aim at the spike in the sky to get this heaven one-way')
    await ctx.send(files=['cypher ascend-a one-way.png', 'cypher A site ascend.png'])
    await ctx.send(embed=embed, file=file)```

i have this now but it says class discord.File(r'C:\Users\Luuk\Pictures\Cypher setup\ascend\A site\cypher A site ascend.png', filename="cypher ascend-a one-way.png", *, spoiler=..., description=None) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[viscid hornet]

dont copy and paste lmao

just put the filename in. the lib will handle the rest

and go from your parent folder using “/“ as a separator

[slate swan]

[viscid hornet]

[warped cave]

so this discord.File('C:/Users/Luuk/Pictures/Cypher setup/ascend/A site/cypher A site ascend.png')

[slate swan]

[viscid hornet]

from your parent folder

(the “./“ is optional)
“./ascend/A site/cyper A site ascend.png”

??

[viscid hornet]

[warped cave]

So if i put ./ascend/A site/cypher A site ascend.png” it would be good

[viscid hornet]

depending on your parent folder, yes

[viscid hornet]

also make sure to learn commands

[sick birch]

we don't know how to build machines that think like humans yet

[pale zenith]

Just get neuralink and use a real human

[sick birch]

you need to learn how to do do machine learning stuff for this. it's outside the scope of this channel

easiest way is to just hook it up to chatgpt API

it is currently impossible to make machines think like humans

the best we can do is natural language models that pretend to talk like humans

[viscid hornet]

you are most definitely not going to make the first human intelligence AI model

[sick birch]

scientists with large data centers still have not cracked the problem

your best option is to either make your own language model and host it yourself, or use chatgpt's

most people just use chatgpt api

[viscid hornet]

in c13 we trust

[sick birch]

not sure what you're saying

you can tell that to chatgpt too, it will pretend for you

only for the right purposes

[viscid hornet]

imagine dispatching gets replaced by AI and they hit you with that “ if you have a medical emergency, press 1. any queries about the NHS, press 2. etc”

[tawny hemlock]

import discord


fp = "asset/image/image.png"

discord.File(fp)

with open(fp, "rb") as file:
    pngbytes = file.read()
    discord.File(pngbytes)

hello. i'm trying to create a File object from bytes, but this gives me an error. anyone know a fix?

File ~\.venv\Lib\site-packages\discord\file.py:97, in File.__init__(self, fp, filename, spoiler, description)
     95     self._owner = False
     96 else:
---> 97     self.fp = open(fp, 'rb')
     98     self._original_pos = 0
     99     self._owner = True

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x89 in position 0: invalid start byte

[hushed galleon]

discord.File can only take a file-like object or a filepath, so in that example the simpler approach would be: py file = discord.File("asset/image/image.png") if you only have just the raw bytes, you can use an in-memory file object: ```py
import io

f = io.BytesIO(raw_bytes)
file = discord.File(f)```

[tawny hemlock]

yea, turns out i completely missed the second line of notes lmao

thanks

[turbid condor]

I don't think ephemeral msg can be edited

[latent pier]

You sure?

[turbid condor]

Not sure

[latent pier]

I think i had seen it in some bot

[turbid condor]

But u can edit it via message.edit

[latent pier]

Using pagination in button response

[turbid condor]

Since message is a Message object

[latent pier]

I cannot do that it's not discord.Message as far I've tested

Or maybe I'm wrong

[turbid condor]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[hushed galleon]

!d discord.Interaction.edit_original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.edit\_original\_response

await edit_original_response(*, content=..., embeds=..., embed=..., attachments=..., view=..., allowed_mentions=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the original interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to [`InteractionMessage.edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionMessage.edit) in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

This method is also the only way to edit the original message if the message sent was ephemeral.

[hushed galleon]

after using send_message(), the above method will be able to edit it

[latent pier]

I see

[hushed galleon]

and if you do need a message object, Interaction.original_response() is required to retrieve it since send_message() returns nothing

oh derp, forgot that wasnt allowed for ephemeral messages

[latent pier]

@turbid condor

[turbid condor]

If u are trying to edit the message with which button are attached then u can use edit_message instead of send_message

[hushed galleon]

wtf is with it showing (edited) 4 times

[turbid condor]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.edit_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.edit\_message

await edit_message(*, content=..., embed=..., embeds=..., attachments=..., view=..., allowed_mentions=..., delete_after=None, suppress_embeds=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Responds to this interaction by editing the original message of a component or modal interaction.

[latent pier]

Ignore it

||not official client don't mind me|| @hushed galleon

[turbid condor]

But this can be only used for cases where working is similar to pagination

[latent pier]

This didn't work

[turbid condor]

What error it gave?

[latent pier]

I'm passing original 1st button's interaction into Pagination instance

[hushed galleon]

oh ya for a paginator, you'd have a fresh interaction with each button click, edit_message should be valid with that

[latent pier]

I don't remember let me check again

[latent pier]

Nah i use same for every button 🤣

Except stop button

All 4 buttons has same response

[turbid condor]

Well then that might be your issue

[latent pier]

Yea my code is bit too complicated ig

[turbid condor]

Since an interaction can only be responded to once

Instead of await self.interaction... use await interaction.response.edit_message()

That should work

[latent pier]

I should try out this too

[turbid condor]

Recheck the message above i forgot to add response

interaction.response.edit_message()

[latent pier]

Okay

[turbid condor]

I told u to recheck the message

[latent pier]

Oh yea this works too

[latent pier]

My bad

[midnight oracle]

Any idea why when I hosted my bot (for personal use) and I try to use any of the slash commands a This interaction failed error raises (in discord)? I have to say that, the commands are loaded correctly and the prefix commands work perfectly, the issue is only with the slash commands after the hosting.

[coral ermine]

Send the system logs

[shrewd apex]

you probably not responding within 3 secs

defer the interaction

[dusk ermine]

Help

I don't understand the error since I make "/ciao".

[turbid condor]

the error??

[slate swan]

All we know from that message is that your command errors, could you provide more context and exceptions?

[dusk ermine]

I was starting with @bot.tree.command etc., the bot started but doing "/ciao" doesn't work

[slate swan]

Did any exception raise?

Could you provide the code of ciao command?

[shrewd apex]

did you sync?

[upbeat otter]

why do people not even post their errors and expect help 💀

[dusk ermine]

@bot.tree.command(name='ciao', description='Says hello to a mentioned user.')
async def ciao(ctx: commands.Context, user: discord.Member):
await ctx.send(f"Ciao {user.display_name}!")

[quick gust]

3 people have asked u if it raised an error

[turbid condor]

well this command won't even work you are using a prefix command as an app_command that's not how it works

[dusk ermine]

Oh

[turbid condor]

main.py```py

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

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.send('Pong!')

bot.run(env.DISCORD_API_TOKEN)```

how to arrange commands like ping into separate files inside a folder called 'commands' to avoid clutter in main.py

im trying

import env,discord,os
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

async def load_extensions():
    for filename in os.listdir('./coms'):

            extension = f'commands.{filename[:-3]}'
            await bot.load_extension(extension)

bot.run(env.DISCORD_API_TOKEN)```

and inside the folder called coms i created ping.py and wrote this:

from discord.ext import commands

[viscid hornet]

did you load the extension

[viscid hornet]

ohh you never called your load extensions function

[slate swan]

how to?

[viscid hornet]

im guessing you know how functions work

[slate swan]

where do i write load_extensions()

[viscid hornet]

you need to call() it

[slate swan]

yes but where?

in main or in the command fiel?

[viscid hornet]

make a new event and call it setup_hook then put it in there

on_ready can be called multiple times so you dont wanna be reloading your extensions twice or thrice

[slate swan]

will this work?

[viscid hornet]

it will, but 2 things:

1. read what i said earlier
2. it’ll raise errors because its an async function

async functions are awaited

so “await my_func()”

[slate swan]

/home/cosmo/Documents/Catmium/main.py:16: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'load_extensions' was never awaited
load_extensions()

my bot is still running

[viscid hornet]

yep. point 2

[viscid hornet]

with no extensions loaded so none of your commands work

[viscid hornet]

☝️

[viscid hornet]

☝️

[viscid hornet]

(read what im saying lmao)

[slate swan]

yes you're texting before i'm done sending images lol

[viscid hornet]

ohh my bad then

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def setup_hook():
load_extensions()

this?

@viscid hornet

bro what happened did you die

RIP bro 2024-2024

i miss my wife

[viscid hornet]

yes

but remember the second thing

[viscid hornet]

i was gone for 2 minutes 😭🙏🏽

[slate swan]

i tried await load_extensions but it just crashed

[viscid hornet]

says it was never awaited

[viscid hornet]

that shouldnt be related to your error though

try it again

[bright dirge]

I'm running into a problem with a quiz bot I'm making when it lasts more than 15 minutes. The entire game chains off the first interaction of calling the command to start it, but I've found out that the token of this interaction gets expired since all the commands begin to 401. I think a way around this would be setting a channel webhook instead, but I want it to be handled automatically by the bot. Is there a way to create channel webhooks via discord.py?

[slate swan]

@viscid hornet

mom

[viscid hornet]

whats commands.ping?

thats whats raising the error

[slate swan]

no idea

import env,discord,os
from discord.ext import commands

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

async def load_extensions():

        await ctx.send('Pong!')

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(Ping(bot))

[slate swan]

this is the ping.py inside commands folder

[viscid hornet]

ah

[viscid hornet]

the setup func should be async

[slate swan]

mywah?

[viscid hornet]

and the adding cog should be awaited

[viscid hornet]

see where it says “setup(bot)”

that should be async

[slate swan]

im going to bathe can u rewrite it ples

oh async def setu(bot)?

[viscid hornet]

yep

and then await your “add_cog”

[slate swan]

yay love you

it workeis

i lost my morals back in vietnam

[viscid hornet]

no probs

[slate swan]

hey um are you a guy or a girl?

[viscid hornet]

a girl

why

[slate swan]

what is your name?

[viscid hornet]

just call me axo lmao

[slate swan]

ok axo ! your pokemon adventure is about to unfold! a world of dreams and adventures await!

uw

If my embed length crosses the limit of 6000 characters, when will the error raise, when I change for example the description and it crosses that limit or when I attempt to send the embed?

[upbeat otter]

when you send it

I think

need to check the source code

or just try it

[slate swan]

I looked at the src and yeah, most likely it will error when I attempt sending it

the checks are preformed in interaction_message_response_params method

which is called when sending the message via response.send_message

this one is weird though

self refers to a ChannelSelect

[viscid hornet]

when you send it

[slate swan]

alright

thats a good info for me

[viscid hornet]

“can i enable this?” “no.” “why?” “no.”

[slate swan]

😭 🙏

[viscid hornet]

[slate swan]

type ignore my beloved

[slate swan]

its used to ignore type warnings from your typechecker

[slate swan]

@viscid hornet Apparently everything works

so that type warning/error was useless :kekw:

guys, gitignore isn't ignoring the pycache inside commands folde

try just __pycache__/

[slate swan]

didn't work

weird

how about commands/__pycache__/

I don't really know, you would need to ask in #python-discussion ig

didn't work

just do __pycache__ and it'll ignore every pycache folder in your repo

💀

[viscid hornet]

not happening

[viscid hornet]

looks like a fake png now 😭

[quick gust]

it doesn't show the "Untracked" sign, as it does "M", so I'm assuming you have already pushed it to github once. Now you cannot gitignore it. The solution would be to delete that folder (and add __pycache__ in gitignore)

[shrewd apex]

u can remove it from staging tho

git reset HEAD -- path/to/file

[quick gust]

thank you for the info! I didn't know this

how to add choices to a slash command?

[viscid hornet]

you can either use a literal typehint, typehint to an enum or add choices in a deco

[viscid hornet]

Want users to select something from a hard coded list?
Use "choices", three different ways to do it. Need channels, roles, members, etc? See ?tag slash types.
View Documentation (has examples)

Option 0: True & False
Need True and False as choices? Simply type the argument with bool and discord will handle it.```py
@...command(...)
async def testephemeral(
interaction: Interaction,
ephemeral: bool
):
print(ephemeral, type(ephemeral))

will print either True or False

**Option 1: typing.Literal**
This is the easiest.```py
from typing import Literal
 
@...command(...)
async def choosecolour(
  interaction: Interaction,
  colour: Literal["Red", "Green", "Blue"]
):
  print(colour) # will print either "Red", "Green" or "Blue"

Option 2: @app_commands.choices```py
from discord import app_commands

@...command(...)

name is shown to the user and value is returned to you.

value can be of type str, int or float.

@app_commands.choices(
colour=[ # param name
app_commands.Choice(name="Red", value="red"),
app_commands.Choice(name="Green", value="green"),
app_commands.Choice(name="Blue", value="blue")
]
)
async def choosecolour(
interaction: Interaction,
colour: Choice[str] # [str] denotes the value type, not required.
):
print(colour) # will print the chosen Choice obj

colour.name for the name and colour.value for the value you set

**Option 3: enum**```py
from enum import Enum

class Colours(Enum):
  # format: name - value
  Red = "red"
  Green = "green"
  Blue = "blue"

@...command(...)
async def choosecolour(
  interaction: Interaction,
  colour: Colours
):
  print(colour) # will print our enum. in this case, the Colour class above
  # colour.name for the name and colour.value for the value you set

Options 0, 1 and 3 also work for hybrid commands.
Choice obj cannot be set as default.

[viscid hornet]

this is taken from the dpy server

[ivory falcon]

i've tried the second one and it worked! but then i checked the terminal and there was this;

  interaction.response.send_message("test")
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback``` 
 
code:
 
```@tree.command(
    name="welcome",
    description="Enable welcoming for new user"
)
@app_commands.choices(
    active=[
        app_commands.Choice(name="on", value="on"),
        app_commands.Choice(name="off", value="off")
    ]
) 
async def welcome(interaction: discord.Interaction, active: app_commands.Choice[str]):
    interaction.response.send_message("test")```

[turbid condor]

error says it all

[shrewd apex]

await it await interaction.response....

[ivory falcon]

OH

Hello could someone help please I am trying to build a discord bot with interactive buttons but I keep getting errors even after installing pip discord-components.

  File "/home/container/main.py", line 3, in <module>
    from discord_components import DiscordComponents, Button, ButtonStyle, InteractionType
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord_components'
customer@apollopanel~ Server marked as offline...

[Pterodactyl Daemon]: Exit code: 1
[Pterodactyl Daemon]: Out of memory: false

[turbid condor]

discord_components is an old and outdated library

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples/views check this to see how to make buttons

[slate swan]

Ah okay, Thank you

[little urchin]

Could anyone help with this issue
import discord

intents = discord.Intents.all()
intents.typing = False
intents.presences = False

client = discord.Client(intents=intents)
token = ''

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

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
print (f'Message from {message.author}: {message.content}')

client.run(token)
I want it as a message logger but when I open it it closes immediately

[slate swan]

why do you want to log messages of others?

[viscid hornet]

need to await it

[viscid hornet]

the discord.Client 😭

[viscid hornet]

whats the console say?

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "my_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    add_three("6")
  File "my_file.py", line 2, in add_three
    a = num + 3

TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

If the traceback is long, use our pastebin.

[little urchin]

Using discord as backend and my python as frontend

[viscid hornet]

wrong way around

[little urchin]

It works fine but the python program thinks it's done so it closes

[little urchin]

No right way round I want to use python as chatapp

And put encryption

[viscid hornet]

so you want to use python to send messages using the bot?

[viscid hornet]

shouldnt do

[little urchin]

No I have a seperate sxript

For sendingessages

With webhook

[little urchin]

It does

[viscid hornet]

this sounds a little extra if ima be honest

[little urchin]

Idk why

[viscid hornet]

also you should be running this inside of a code editor since if you run it by double clicking it, it’ll close down automatically if theres any errors

[little urchin]

I know

I did it inside vscode
