in guild.members*

[upbeat otter]

yeah sorry

[slate karma]

my bot isn't responding on discord this is the code:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/2QFA
I get this on my cmd:

[2024-05-08 14:50:00] [WARNING ] discord.ext.commands.bot: Privileged message content intent is missing, commands may not work as expected.
[2024-05-08 14:50:00] [INFO ] discord.client: logging in using static token

roblox has connected to Discord!

I have enabled the settings on discord dev portal but yet no respond.

[fast osprey]

You're not requesting it in code

[slate karma]

which code do i need to add that into the code? and where? ( i just started coding )

[fast osprey]

You need to enable the message_content flag on the Intents object you're passing into your bot

[slate karma]

and how do i do that?

[viscid hornet]

!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.

[viscid hornet]

what you're looking for is in the codeblock

[slate karma]

i added the stuff from the codeblock but it still not working

[viscid hornet]

new error?

[slate karma]

still getting this:
[2024-05-08 15 11 38] [WARNING ] discord.ext.commands.bot: Privileged message content intent is missing, commands may not work as expected.
[2024-05-08 15 11 38] [INFO ] discord.client: logging in using static token

roblox has connected to Discord!

[viscid hornet]

so its not enabled in the dev portal

https://discord.com/developers/applications

[viscid hornet]

code?

[slate karma]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/WNBA

[viscid hornet]

you're overriding the intents silly

its like if i did this

!e py a = 5 a = 19 print(a)

[unkempt canyon]

@viscid hornet :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

19

[viscid hornet]

thats the same as this

!e py a = 19 print(a)

[unkempt canyon]

@viscid hornet :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

19

[slate karma]

oh bruh which ones do i need to remove?

[viscid hornet]

just combine the two

intents = ...
intents.something = True
intents.something_else = False```

[slate karma]

which two?

[viscid hornet]

both sets of intents

you’re writing intents then overwriting it

[slate karma]

better?

[viscid hornet]

yes

[slate karma]

it is not working still

[drifting arrow]

I want to setup a command that uses dates. Is there a better setup than this:
/search day:XX Month:XX, Year:XXXX

[viscid hornet]

have it as one string and use datetime.datetime.strftime

!d datetime.datetime.strftime

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.strftime

datetime.strftime(format)```
Return a string representing the date and time, controlled by an explicit format string. See also [strftime() and strptime() Behavior](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior) and [`datetime.isoformat()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.isoformat).

[viscid hornet]

oh wait its strptime

[drifting arrow]

But that's not for a python command param

[viscid hornet]

!d datetime.datetime.strptime

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.strptime

classmethod datetime.strptime(date_string, format)```
Return a [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime) corresponding to *date\_string*, parsed according to *format*.

If *format* does not contain microseconds or timezone information, this is equivalent to:

```py
datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string, format)[0:6]))
```  [`ValueError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#ValueError) is raised if the date\_string and format can’t be parsed by [`time.strptime()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#time.strptime) or if it returns a value which isn’t a time tuple. See also [strftime() and strptime() Behavior](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior) and [`datetime.fromisoformat()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.fromisoformat).

[drifting arrow]

Im dealing with idiots players on a video game not programmers lol

They won't understand how to put a datetime in properly.

[viscid hornet]

just take a date like 23/07/2024 and then pass it as “%d/%M/%Y”

[drifting arrow]

They're idiotsplayers

[viscid hornet]

mfw MM/DD/YYYY

[drifting arrow]

Trust me

they're fucking stupid.

[viscid hornet]

if they’re fucking stupid then go for the day, month, year approach

[viscid hornet]

whats the new error

[slate karma]

it works now but the answer part isn't working

[viscid hornet]

answer part?

[drifting arrow]

Ya. I was hoping for a better approach is all lol

[viscid hornet]

do you not have syntax highlighting?

[slate karma]

i got no idea what that is

[viscid hornet]

your “command” is a message listener, not a command

when you send “!answer” it interprets that as a command

[slate karma]

oh

[viscid hornet]

or am i bugging

wait show whole code

[fast osprey]

If you want to use the command framework, you should make actual top level commands and get rid of your on_message

[viscid hornet]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

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]

(send the link)

[slate karma]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/Y6XKEAYYN22IRFUTF2E2KKKCMY

[viscid hornet]

use commands, not message listeners

it’ll fix your code dramatically

[slate karma]

thank u 😭

[viscid hornet]

you get far more out of commands than a simple message event listener because commands are made to be commands and message event listeners are just plain text 🤷🏽‍♂️

@slate swan spit it out

[slate swan]

[viscid hornet]

grr whos my good wittle kitten

[crisp glacier]

[slate karma]

okayy thank you for explaining

[young dagger]

@vale wingDo you know how to overwrite a text file with new data outside of the docker container?

I'm trying to update a text file based on data fetched from a URL, but it seems like the file changes are not persisting as expected locally

[upbeat otter]

This is a discord bots channel
please use #1035199133436354600

[crisp glacier]

!d str.join

[unkempt canyon]

str.join

str.join(iterable)```
Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in *iterable*. A [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError) will be raised if there are any non-string values in *iterable*, including [`bytes`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes) objects. The separator between elements is the string providing this method.

[upbeat otter]

This is a discord bots help channel 😭
Please use #bot-commands to use the bots

[crisp glacier]

My bad

[viscid hornet]

Facepalm

[vale wing]

Is it mounted

If it is, file perms are read only, you can manually alter them and edit file

[smoky patrol]

Someone knows how i can add the a specifc value as the default value to ui textinput in discord.py
`class add_keyword(ui.Modal):
keyword = ui.TextInput(
label="Keywords",

        default=self.value
    )
excluded = ui.TextInput(
        label="Exclude",
        required=False
    )
def __init__(self, value):
    self.value = value`

that wouldnt work

[young dagger]

I'm running a task to update the text file. So there is no way to update the text file locally by the bot running in a docker container?

                        with open('blacklisted_domains.txt', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
                            current_blacklist = f.read().splitlines()

                        if fetched_data.strip() != '\n'.join(current_blacklist).strip():
                            with open('blacklisted_domains.txt', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:
                                f.write(fetched_data)```

[young dagger]

Sorry I don't really understand what you mean. The idea is that the bot should write to the text file with new data. I don't want to do it manually.

[vale wing]

You pretty much can. Could you show how you mount it

[vale wing]

Ah mb, thought you were trying to edit it manually from hard drive

[viscid hornet]

modals dont have an __init__ btw

[vale wing]

I think kwarg is placeholder

But why lower_snake_case classname 😭

Please

UpperCamelCase

[young dagger]

#!/bin/bash

echo "Stopping existing Docker container..."
docker stop blitzcrank
wait

echo "Removing existing Docker container..."
docker rm blitzcrank

docker build -t blitzcrank .

docker run -d --name blitzcrank --restart always -t blitzcrank```

[vale wing]

Use compose 😛

It's headache to configure volumes via cli

[wispy falcon]

how do i change the profile of a guild with a simple command?

[vale wing]

!d discord.Guild.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.edit

await edit(*, reason=..., name=..., description=..., icon=..., banner=..., splash=..., discovery_splash=..., community=..., afk_channel=..., owner=..., afk_timeout=..., ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the guild.

You must have [`manage_guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_guild) to edit the guild.

Changed in version 2.0: The newly updated guild is returned.

Changed in version 2.0: The `region` keyword parameter has been removed.

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

[wispy falcon]

i need an example

[vale wing]

Spoonfeeding*

But fine

@command()
async def swap_icon(ctx):
    with open("new_icon.png", "rb") as fp:
        await ctx.guild.edit(icon=fp)

[smoky patrol]

but it works

[wispy falcon]

ok

[viscid hornet]

if it works then 🤷

[wispy falcon]

thx but it doesnt work

[vale wing]

You asked for example, not working code 😛

[wispy falcon]

ok

[vale wing]

Figure it out and adapt for your needs

[wispy falcon]

yk what i meant

[wispy falcon]

ok

[young dagger]

Yeah I know. This was just my temporary solution 😄

However, any idea how I can write to the text file locally?

[vale wing]

Well you'd still need compose first

Configuring volumes via cli is possible

But your build line will be long af and unreadable

[wispy falcon]

how do i make it work then?

[vale wing]

Well what have you transformed the code to for now

You need to change the decorator and filename at the very least in order for it to work

[limpid apex]

If I wanted to use python (ro.py, discordpy) to make a roblox in-game verification system, is that possible

I’m aware it would need a webhook, I’m just not sure how to use them

[young dagger]

Can you give me an example for a better understanding?

[vale wing]

https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/docker-hosting-guide/ there is a guide how to configure volume

[young dagger]

So from my understanding is the blacklisted_domains.txt file currently saved in the memory or in temporary files?

[vale wing]

And compose

[vale wing]

Yeah as long as it's not mounted it lives as long as container does

[vale wing]

Well you'd just need to use roblox API I guess

Can do that pretty much from any app as long as you have internet connection xd

!pypi aiohttp use this

[unkempt canyon]

aiohttp v3.9.5

Async http client/server framework (asyncio)

Released on <t:1713289750:D>.

[limpid apex]

Kk

Ty!

[limpid apex]

As I said however, I’m pretty new to this. Can you go a bit into detail?

[slate swan]

technically everything has __init__

[vale wing]

Well web API is not something I can explain in one discord message, but I can give you some guides to understand that topic

[limpid apex]

Alright! Please do

[vale wing]

https://realpython.com/api-integration-in-python/ think this one is good

[limpid apex]

Kk

[vale wing]

Yeah that one even has examples

They're using requests library however, keep in mind that you will need to swap to aiohttp when you get to implementing your verification system

[viscid hornet]

farm_enGRRRR

[crisp glacier]

you have no right to talk

[young dagger]

Is there a way to retrieve all members with a specific role without having to iterate through every member in the guild?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Role.members

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role.members

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

[slate swan]

@young dagger

Hello y'all me again back with another issue lol, use have helped me solve many of my issues with my bot so far and it's currently working amazingly so Thank you,

Anyways I have added a new command which will remove said members from their current role and also update the embed message accordingly (by removing their @username from that category) however when I try to use the remove command I get the error message Unknown Integration within discord, how do I resolve this so the command works as it should.

[fast osprey]

Code and traceback?

[slate swan]

async def remove_from_category(ctx, category_name: str, member: discord.Member):
    try:
        if not ctx.author.guild_permissions.administrator:
            raise commands.MissingPermissions(["administrator"])

        normalized_category_name = category_name.lower()
        if normalized_category_name not in queue_categories:
            raise commands.BadArgument("Invalid category name.")

        role_name = queue_categories[normalized_category_name]
        role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name=role_name)

        if not role:
            raise commands.BadArgument("Role not found for the specified category.")

        await member.remove_roles(role)

        channel = ctx.guild.get_channel(TARGET_CHANNEL_ID)
        if not channel:
            raise commands.BadArgument("Target channel not found.")

        await update_embed(channel)
        await ctx.send(f"Successfully removed {member.mention} from {category_name}.")

    except commands.MissingPermissions as e:
        await ctx.send(f"You don't have permission to run this command: {e}")

    except commands.BadArgument as e:
        await ctx.send(f"Invalid usage: {e}")

    except Exception as e:
        traceback.print_exc()
        await ctx.send(f"An error occurred: {e}")```

[young dagger]

Something like?

unverified_role = discord.Role.members(id=769451860884062228)```

[slate swan]

members is a property, not a method

so it doesn't take any arguments

you would have to first get the role from the guild

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

get_role(role_id, /)```
Returns a role with the given ID.

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

[slate swan]

and on that role use an members property

[young dagger]

What is different between that method and unverified_role = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, id=769451860884062228)

[slate swan]

What I think it will do is looping thru every role and comparing its id to the one provided to you

and get_role will take the role from the cache

(will return None if not found)

[young dagger]

What is the best way to handle comparisons with member.joined?

# Check if member joined more than 5 minutes ago
            if (datetime.datetime.utcnow().replace(tzinfo=None) - member.joined_at.replace(tzinfo=None)).total_seconds() > 300:

[slate swan]

Thank you

[naive briar]

This sounds more like a general question

[young dagger]

Sure

I want to compare member.joined which is Discord related

Ofc anything is gonna be Python related too

[naive briar]

More like datetime

You'd probably have more chance in #1035199133436354600 anyway

Sure. Right to my note 🤠

[wispy falcon]

is there another way to do application / slash commands without all the tree stuff?

[naive briar]

You'd have to use the forks, like disnake, instead in that case

[wispy falcon]

async def on_message(message):
    if 'happy birthday' in message.content.lower():
        await message.channel.send('Happy Birthday! :balloon::tada:')```

what does lower mean?

or content.lower

[proper spire]

Hi guys, gonna ask for a suggestion, if there is already a bot for this use case, if not then I'll just end up making a bot for this

Use case: Ban the user if they write anything in the honeypot channel

This is being done to ban people who use spam bots.

[viscid hornet]

!d str.lower

[unkempt canyon]

str.lower

str.lower()```
Return a copy of the string with all the cased characters [[4]](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#id15) converted to lowercase.

The lowercasing algorithm used is [described in section 3.13 ‘Default Case Folding’ of the Unicode Standard](https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch03.pdf).

[viscid hornet]

it makes the string all lowercase

[viscid hornet]

1. use an on_message listene
2. compare the message’s channel id to the honeypot channel id
3. ban them if it is

[viscid hornet]

whats the issue with “tree stuff”?

[proper spire]

Is there a way to host it somewhere for free ?

Repl.it maybe ?

[viscid hornet]

yes

on your own pc 👍🏽

[viscid hornet]

❌

absolute no

[proper spire]

Sorta need it 24/7, can't have the pc running 24/7

[viscid hornet]

!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.

[viscid hornet]

there we go. check this out

[proper spire]

Thanks mate !

[slate swan]

what means channel "unbekannt" / "unknown" in the hosting factoid? that the resource changed?

[viscid hornet]

channel unknown? what are you doing to get said channel

[slate swan]

you used the trigger "!hosting" and the bot posted a factoid as reaction. it suggests to join the channel "unknown" and it confuses me

[viscid hornet]

just means the channel doesnt exist

[slate swan]

oh, ok

[viscid hornet]

👍🏽

[mellow token]

Do try and except blocks on discord errors work? I have tried a bunch of stuff but none of them seem to be catching the discord errors

[hushed galleon]

assuming you mean with discord.py using the commands extension, it depends on what raised the error - if it was something inside your command body then you can try-except that just fine, but for errors outside of it like check failures, CommandNotFound, MissingPermissions, etc., you need to write a special error handler for it:
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html#error-handling py @bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error): if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions): await ctx.send(f"You are missing the following permissions: {error.missing_permissions}") else: raise error # print traceback to terminal

[mellow token]

daaang so its a specific function that I call for permissions errors? You are too smart my problem is with permissions so that is super helpful

[wispy falcon]

its just too much

but i found another way

i think it was
@bot.hybrid_command(name="The_name", description ="The_Description")

and so on

with await bot.tree.sync in the async def on_ready event thing at the start

[stoic island]

Hey I'm just starting out with discord user installed apps in Python and wondering if someone could link some example code, or maybe just some barebones code that uses /hello and will output a little greeting from the bot. Much appreciated.

[fast osprey]

I would recommend reading the documentation for on_ready before continuing to use it

[latent pier]

I'd recommend you making a separate command instead of calling it in events everytime you update new command in bot you sync it using sync command

[latent pier]

Documentation has those examples already

[wispy falcon]

thats how i done it

[plush field]

Hey can anyone help me

if
message = message.content.startswith("hey"): message.channel.send("¡Hey!")

But no work

∆:

[latent pier]

message.channel.send() is not awaited

And bad indentation

[plush field]

Okay can u edite It?

To work

[latent pier]

if message.content.startswith("hey"):
    await message.channel.send("¡Hey!")

Have you learnt python?

[plush field]

I know a little

[latent pier]

on_ready might get called multiple times whenever your bot reconnects, starts, etc so triggering bot.tree.sync() so many times might lead you to timeout so it is better to use it only when necessary instead of calling it many times unnecessarily

[plush field]

??.

[latent pier]

Full context

Show me full code instead of 2 lines

[plush field]

I think I miss a space

@latent pier

[latent pier]

Where's the event decorator and function?

Writing these two lines won't make it work

[stoic island]

Link?

[plush field]

Uh I copy what u send

[latent pier]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/index.html

[latent pier]

That's not how it works

[plush field]

Uh so what I Ned do when someone say hey the bot respond?

[latent pier]

You can make a command or use on_message event which listens to every message

[plush field]

Can u make. 😭 I was looking for that

[latent pier]

@bot.Event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith("hey"):
        await message.channel.send("¡Hey!") 

But remember this channel isn't for spoon feeding you gotta learn things on your own and try to build it by yourself

[plush field]

Yes thanks but it give this error

[latent pier]

Why is it om line 474 what's the rest code?

[wanton current]

this is why you don't edit code inside pterodactyl

[plush field]

I got much codes all work

[latent pier]

Use proper IDE

[plush field]

I was looking for that

[plush field]

But what is?

[latent pier]

I wouldn't recommend editing code directly on the panel

[plush field]

Uh why I'm in mobile

So u can fix the code?

Uh.

[viscid hornet]

shouldnt it be a lowercase e?

[viscid hornet]

that should be a lowercase e...

[latent pier]

Well his code isn't working anyways so

So point in investing energy....

[viscid hornet]

you shouldnt be auto-syncing in on_ready

[viscid hornet]

whats wrong w it

[latent pier]

@viscid hornet bro's trynna edit it directly on panel

I've no idea because never experienced this error before

[viscid hornet]

how come? ```py

for main.py file

@bot.tree.command()
async def test(interaction):
await interaction.response.send_message("hello")

for cog

class MyCog(...):
...
@app_commands.command(name = 'test', description = '...')
async def test(self, interaction):
await interaction.response.send_message("hello")```

[viscid hornet]

you have an unprintable character at the end of the line 🤷

[viscid hornet]

(this is for slash commands only btw)

[viscid hornet]

unprintable character?

[latent pier]

Could be possible that there's a invisible character

[viscid hornet]

my question is how the hell is bro 500 lines deep into the file thats supposed to be his main file

[latent pier]

Same question but with one more condition

How bro wrote 500 lines when he can't even make simple event

[latent pier]

@viscid hornet see this

[plush field]

Mm

[viscid hornet]

guy just wrote an if statement 😭🙏🏽

[viscid hornet]

mf works in mysterious ways

[plush field]

Uh what wrong?

[latent pier]

My literal reaction to it .

[latent pier]

More mysterious than aliens

[plush field]

E?

[latent pier]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.lower().startswith("hey"):
        await message.channel.send("¡Hey!")

Try this

@plush field

[wanton current]

lowercase e on Event

[plush field]

Ok I'm back I was eat

[plush field]

Thanks it work and also it gave a limit? Like how much I can put this in my main.py

[latent pier]

There's no limit but it's a good practice to keep it short and simple and organize your commands in cogs

[plush field]

Okay and also if I put this the commands was I got don't work

Only the "hey"

And don't give error where should I put?

[fast osprey]

How you organize commands/whatever else into cogs is completely orthogonal to what files you put things in. Cogs are classes, and can go wherever. Your main file could have 50 cogs and that would work just fine

[mellow token]

turns out I need on_error instead of on_command_error because I am doing it on a on_reaction_add function. quite a pain . With both on_error and on_command_error I should be able to have the global error handler in main while the functions that might raise errors are in cogs right? The error handler should still catch it?

[hushed galleon]

yes, the @bot.event / @bot.listen() decorators receive errors from listeners in your cogs

in the case of commands, the command's error handler runs first, then cog_command_error(), then your global handlers

[mellow token]

Ahhh yeah makes sense I appreciate it!

[viscid hornet]

copycat

literally a cat

[vapid parcel]

So you can edit ephemeral messages, can you delete them?

I am talking abt interactions.

[hushed galleon]

!d discord.Interaction.delete_original_response can do that

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.delete\_original\_response

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

Deletes the original interaction response message.

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

[vapid parcel]

alr ty 😁

Wait, I am calling a drop down, how can I do this? I wanna make the message go away after they select whatever they select ya know?

They press a button, which then calls a drop down.

I wanna delete the message the button sends, but after they click the cog they reload..? How can I do that..?

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/HNMQ

[viscid hornet]

since the select is an interaction, you can call delete original response and it’ll delete that message

[vapid parcel]

check the code

[viscid hornet]

also for your exceptions, remove the “exception as e” and use this

!d traceback.format_exc

[unkempt canyon]

traceback.format\_exc

traceback.format_exc(limit=None, chain=True)```
This is like `print_exc(limit)` but returns a string instead of printing to a file.

[viscid hornet]

i see too many beginners just printing the last line of the error and not including any traceback info as to what ent wrong

[viscid hornet]

can you not just use delete OR?

let the select do it after it reloads

[vapid parcel]

Thats for embed only

in console it will show traceback

I am not going to show traceback inside of an embed.

[viscid hornet]

it wont because you’re catching the error then printing it

[vapid parcel]

Bro, inside of console, it shows the full error...

[viscid hornet]

it doesnt when you do it like that

[vapid parcel]

Does for me.

[viscid hornet]

!e
x = "abc"

try:
x = int(x)
except Exception as e:
print(e)

[unkempt canyon]

@viscid hornet :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'abc'

[viscid hornet]

prints the last line

[viscid hornet]

what IDE are you using that prevents errors from being caught by try excepts 😭🙏🏽

[vapid parcel]

Pycharm

Pycharm on top

[viscid hornet]

pycharm is so not lightweight 😭

cant run it for shit

[vapid parcel]

When did the word lightweight come into this..?

[viscid hornet]

!try-except

sad

[vapid parcel]

Runs on linux n mac os and windows just fine

maybe your pc just sucks

[viscid hornet]

how the fuck am i supposed to rate an editor if it takes 2 minutes to load 😭🙏🏽

[vapid parcel]

2 seconds*

[viscid hornet]

thats why we use vscode babyyy 🗣

[viscid hornet]

2 minutes*

[vapid parcel]

Your pc just sucks then bro

[viscid hornet]

actually wait

im a fucking microwave 🤦🏽‍♂️

20 seconds

i was thinking about it wrong

eh shut up anyway

[vapid parcel]

So how to fix my issue again

instead of you talking abt goofy vsc

[viscid hornet]

printing an error is still bad practice 🤷🏽‍♂️

[vapid parcel]

IM NOT EVEN PRINTING ITTTT

[viscid hornet]

why cant you use delete OR?

[vapid parcel]

SHOW THE PRINT

[viscid hornet]

mfw im paraphrasing

[viscid hornet]

^^

[vapid parcel]

in callback???

[viscid hornet]

yeahh? callback has interaction

[vapid parcel]

No I can't do that

        await interaction.delete_original_response()

It will give an error

404 error.

[crisp glacier]

fax

[viscid hornet]

missing interaction? or what?

[vapid parcel]

discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10015): Unknown Webhook

[viscid hornet]

pass in the view the parent interaction and use that to delete the message

that should in theory work fine

[vapid parcel]

now we try again

alr

it worked

I love you @viscid hornet

[crisp glacier]

yeah hes big brain

[viscid hornet]

see

[crisp glacier]

[vapid parcel]

sometimes...

[crisp glacier]

most of the time

[viscid hornet]

i thought you were gonna say “finally you’re useful” 😭🙏🏽

[vapid parcel]

real

this is the first time youve actually helped me

instead of me HELPING you

[viscid hornet]

see, im useful

[vapid parcel]

sometimes

😁

[crisp glacier]

bro been counting

[viscid hornet]

also just so you know, it works because the parent interaction is what sends the message with the view so that interaction holds the original response. you can think of the select interaction as a child interaction where it doesnt have an original response

[viscid hornet]

hes been marking on his wall and going insane

[crisp glacier]

[viscid hornet]

when has this ever happened

[vapid parcel]

real

[vapid parcel]

Check first dm buddy

your first dm was you asking for help

waiting for bro to delete the message

[viscid hornet]

🤫

|| (not in front of the hoes) ||

[vapid parcel]

[crisp glacier]

[vapid parcel]

@viscid hornet

[viscid hornet]

yeah?

[vapid parcel]

Be more help, i was showing this man that only codes bots in js, my control panel, but he doesn't know what cogs are

so what would cogs be in js? I said extensions, he said no also

Tf do they have in js 😭

[viscid hornet]

just call em modules

[viscid hornet]

they import stuff in the same way i believe

[vapid parcel]

yes but like

do they not have cogs?

[viscid hornet]

djs might have cogs idk

[vapid parcel]

😭

[viscid hornet]

research it

[vapid parcel]

Research? whats that...?

[viscid hornet]

cogs are just discordian modules that you import

[viscid hornet]

you don't have a command prefix?

also you shouldnt go through the bother of subclassing Client because Client is a literal nothingburger when it comes to doing literally anything

also STOP PRINTING EXCEPTIONS. PLEASE 😭

But it's a even when embed is sent

2 things:

1. syntax highlighting (do !code)
2. should be using commands.Bot preferably

i fixed xd

[cyan eagle]

Can you check if this is a working code?

[viscid hornet]

oh im dumb

!d discord.on_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_message

discord.on_message(message)```
Called when a [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message) is created and sent.

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

Warning

Your bot’s own messages and private messages are sent through this event. This can lead cases of ‘recursion’ depending on how your bot was programmed. If you want the bot to not reply to itself, consider checking the user IDs. Note that [`Bot`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot) does not have this problem.

[viscid hornet]

two things:

1. use commands.Bot
2. you already enabled all the intents - you dont need to re-enable them

[cyan eagle]

Should I make a normal command ?

Reather then using events?

[viscid hornet]

few things:

1. use commands.Bot
2. you dont need a main loop - dpy already has its own .run() function
3. requests is blocking so it freezes your bot while processing a HTTP request

[viscid hornet]

you have to use events for this sort of thing

just how it goes yk ¯_(ツ)_/¯

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, *, help_command=<default-help-command>, tree_cls=<class 'discord.app_commands.tree.CommandTree'>, description=None, ...)```
Represents a Discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client) you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin) to provide the functionality to manage commands.

Unlike [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client), this class does not require manually setting a [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree) and is automatically set upon instantiating the class.

!traceback

[unkempt canyon]

Traceback

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.
While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

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

!d random.choices @crisp glacier

[unkempt canyon]

random.choices

random.choices(population, weights=None, *, cum_weights=None, k=1)```
Return a *k* sized list of elements chosen from the *population* with replacement. If the *population* is empty, raises [`IndexError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#IndexError).

If a *weights* sequence is specified, selections are made according to the relative weights. Alternatively, if a *cum\_weights* sequence is given, the selections are made according to the cumulative weights (perhaps computed using [`itertools.accumulate()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.accumulate)). For example, the relative weights `[10, 5, 30, 5]` are equivalent to the cumulative weights `[10, 15, 45, 50]`. Internally, the relative weights are converted to cumulative weights before making selections, so supplying the cumulative weights saves work.

and not like this

get it ?

the string id 💀

since it's probably from an api that makes sense

oh. fair enough 🤷🏽‍♂️

[sweet minnow]

All i wanted to know is whether if it's correctly implemented or not. Please help.

[viscid hornet]

can apis not send back large/long numbers or smth

[wanton current]

eg. a discord id is larger than a 32-bit integer

in python it doesn't matter but in js you'd have to use BigInt

it should give you a JSON response so just interpret it like a dictionary

[spice seal]

How can I do it then? Idk how to.

[viscid hornet]

do you know what a dictionary is

it sends you a dictionary when you send it a get request

[spice seal]

Little bit

Not too much xd

the one who asher said needed to take some duolingo lessons

[wanton current]

most unhinged help channel ive ever seen

[slate swan]

Anyways @spice seal, you wold need an aiohttp.ClientSession() and using that session you could make a GET request to the API which would return a Response object.

async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
  async with session.get("url") as response:
    data = await response.json()

data in this meaning will be the JSON response from that API which is basically a python dictionary,
now having that data you could access elements / information that you need from it. Example:

some_json: dict[str, Any] = {
  "some_stuff": [ "image.jpg", "new.gif" ],
  "code": 200
}

print(some_json["code"]) # Will print value of the "code" key (200)

[spice seal]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import requests

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

@bot.command()
async def story(ctx):
    # Make a request to the API
    response = requests.get('https://short-stories-api.onrender.com/')
    data = response.json()

    # Assuming the API returns a list of stories and we're taking the first one
    story = data[0]

    # Create an embed with the title, description, and author's avatar as the thumbnail
    embed = discord.Embed(title=story['title'], description=story['description'], color=0x00ff00)
    embed.set_thumbnail(url=story['author_avatar'])

    # Send the embed in the current channel
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

# Token and run goes here.```
This is still now working...

@slate swan

[slate swan]

I assume you get KeyError, right?

[spice seal]

Wait lemme show traceback

@slate swan

[slate swan]

I assume thats because you are accessing key that is against the rules? I don't really know since I would need to read scenarios in which JSONDecodeError happens. For sure the JSON key must be a string and you are accessing a key that is an int

[shrewd apex]

u sure thats the right api endpoint ur hitting?

[spice seal]

I think so...

They have a github

[wise oak]

I a listening

[shrewd apex]

dosent seem valid

[spice seal]

https://github.com/poseidon-code/shortstories-api

This is the api

Wait a sec

I did it wrong

It's shortstories-api lol mb

[slim bloom]

@viscid hornet Could I give you a boost for the help you gave me with my bot?

[spice seal]

@slate swan your right there is a key error.

[spice seal]

Bro is a millionaire irl 💸💸

[slate swan]

JSON keys are always strings

[spice seal]

How can I fix it...

[slate swan]

you would need to do something like data["film"] where "film" is a key name

[viscid hornet]

boosts mean nothing ngl

nitro is where its at 🤑

Picking up some small pebbles, he dropped them into the pitcher one by one.

This is the code,the code works but this is the correct error @slate swan

[slate swan]

it should be data.keys() I think

[night crater]

nah dictionaries let you do key in dict

it implicitly is checking the key

log the response payload with pprint.pprint(data) and see if it matches your expectations

[shrewd apex]

atleast take a look at the data ur receiving 💀

[slate swan]

really?

TIL

[slate swan]

how to get this???

[wanton current]

I guess just check len(guild.members)

Updated code @slate swan this is still not working...

If possible someone dm cuz I can't follow up with the chat
Dms are always open for help 🙂

[slate swan]

stories variable would be instance of dict I believe

dict[str, Any]

[wanton current]

one way

[spice seal]

I can't understand 😭
Can anyone update the code or help in detail
If possible pls dm

[slate swan]

This gives you a dictionary (Whole JSON data from the response) , now you need to access the "story" key

[spice seal]

I have done it in the embed tho right?

[slate swan]

Right but this check is failing

since "stories" is an instance of dict (thats what I think atleast)

[shrewd apex]

it is

also the dictionary dosent have any description or author_avatar

the code just looks ai generated at this point

[slate swan]

I also recommended using aiohttp

requests is blocking the event loop

[viscid hornet]

also you should be using aiohttp instead of requests because requests is blocking

[viscid hornet]

probably is ngl

what did i miss

[viscid hornet]

secondth

[slate swan]

thats what I said

[viscid hornet]

shush

[slate swan]

i aint see that

|| can i push it up so it swings back and forth like a grandfather clock ||

😂

[wanton current]

ur weird

[slate swan]

[viscid hornet]

silence willy

[slate swan]

I wonder if its a stupid idea to make a metaclass for creating Singletons

then subclassing the bot and passing it as a metaclass

[shrewd apex]

just override __new__ ?

[viscid hornet]

what the fuck is a singleton

[slate swan]

it exists so there is only one instance of your class

[slate swan]

or __call__ ig

[shrewd apex]

only a single instance of a particular class is allowed

[viscid hornet]

wait hold on

what is _instances

[shrewd apex]

__call__ for class is when u call its instance again say a = A() now a() will invoke the __call__

[viscid hornet]

so A()()?

[shrewd apex]

yes

[slate swan]

for some reasons it works tho 💀

[shrewd apex]

u can instead override __new__ for this

!e

class Singleton:
    __instance = None

    def __new__(cls):
        if not cls.__instance:
            cls.__instance = super().__new__(cls)
        return cls.__instance
    
s = Singleton()
print("Object created", s, id(s))
s1 = Singleton()
print("Object created", s1, id(s1))

very discord bot related

[shrewd apex]

well we used pydis bot to demonstrate sum stuff

[slate swan]

!e

class SingleMeta(type):
  _instances = {}

  def __call__(cls, *args, **kwargs):
    if cls not in cls._instances:
      cls._instances[cls] = super().__call__(*args, **kwargs)
    return cls._instances[cls]

class Test(metaclass=SingleMeta):
  def __init__(self, a):
    self.a = a

test1 = Test(2)
test2 = Test(5)

print(test1.a)
print(test2.a)

yeah it would work if u define __call__ for the metaclass because this way the __call__ method is being invoked when ur doing Test()

[thorny frost]

Hello, newbie question here, is there a function in the discord API that allows a bot to ignore a message?

[latent pier]

Wdym by ignore message?

[thorny frost]

I have it set up as "?" being the key for the bot to private message the user, then the bot deletes the users message in the channel. I'm stuck on that the bot deletes even messages with only a "?" and nothing else!

[latent pier]

Do you know how to use if condition and startswith?

[thorny frost]

yes, a bit, I could send you the code if you'd like.

[latent pier]

You should've already sent it earlier

Don't ask for help without context

[thorny frost]

I did in the help channel and they sent me here so I thought I couldn't post code like that here!

 if user_message.startswith('?'):
        user_message = user_message[1:]
        try:
            response: str = get_response(user_message)
            await message.author.send(response)
            await message.delete()
        except:
            IndexError
            Forbidden(print('Forbidden'))
            NotFound(print('Not Found'))```

[latent pier]

 if user_message.startswith('?'):
        user_message = user_message[1:]
        try:
            response: str = get_response(user_message)
            await message.author.send(response)
            if not message.startswith("?"):
                await message.delete()
        except:
            IndexError
            Forbidden(print('Forbidden'))
            NotFound(print('Not Found')) 

[thorny frost]

Thanks, I’ll give that a shot!

[slate swan]

you know that this except block is not right

[thorny frost]

I do not, I’m not very experienced yet, especially not with try/except

[slate swan]

!except

[unkempt canyon]

Error handling

A key part of the Python philosophy is to ask for forgiveness, not permission. This means that it's okay to write code that may produce an error, as long as you specify how that error should be handled. Code written this way is readable and resilient.

try:
    number = int(user_input)
except ValueError:
    print("failed to convert user_input to a number. setting number to 0.")
    number = 0

You should always specify the exception type if it is possible to do so, and your try block should be as short as possible. Attempting to handle broad categories of unexpected exceptions can silently hide serious problems.

try:
    number = int(user_input)
    item = some_list[number]
except:
    print("An exception was raised, but we have no idea if it was a ValueError or an IndexError.")

For more information about exception handling, see the official Python docs, or watch Corey Schafer's video on exception handling.

[slate swan]

this is how you catch errors

except:
    IndexError
    Forbidden(print('Forbidden'))
    NotFound(print('Not Found')) 

-> ```py
except IndexError:
# do something
except Forbidden:
print('Forbidden')
...

or if you want to do same thing for couple errors
```py
except (Forbidden, NotFound):
    print("Error")

also if you want to know what error was actually caught you can save it in a variable like this ```py
except (Forbidden, NotFound) as e:
print(e)

[thorny frost]

Ooooh! That actually makes it very clear! Thanks a bunch!

[long cove]

Hi where can I create a bot?

[latent pier]

At your home

[long cove]

Rude

[latent pier]

Dumb question Developer portal

[long cove]

Ik that but what about the codes

[merry cliff]

Hey hey don’t be rude

[latent pier]

https://discord.com/developers/applications

[long cove]

Can you help me?

[latent pier]

Language and library

Python and OOP concept

[merry cliff]

Here is a full guide https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/

[long cove]

Thanks you 🙏

[merry cliff]

It covers everything

I wish it was made when I was learning discord.py

[long cove]

I just want to create a bot like ticket

But I have no idea about how I will do it

[latent pier]

That'd be little complicated if you're starting now

Learning will take time

[long cove]

I mean em if I type !help the bot sends a msg do you know how to do that?

[merry cliff]

That’s the default help command

It’s built in

[latent pier]

You can read this for better understanding
https://guide.pycord.dev/introduction

[sick birch]

https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/python-guides/discordpy_help_command/

[merry cliff]

This is a different library

[long cove]

But when I do !help and the message it send am I able to edit?

[latent pier]

I said this page only it covers basic requirements of python knowledge

[merry cliff]

See Robin’s message for that

[long cove]

Okay

[latent pier]

You can overwrite it with your own custom made help command

[long cove]

But as said I have no idea how py works so i'ma just copy some tutorials on YouTube.

[scarlet tiger]

That will only give you problems Learn Python before making a discord bot

[long cove]

Tutorials will help ....
Or no?

[fast osprey]

YouTube is a cesspit where people make things up and nobody checks them on it. You should not use it to learn

[long cove]

Then how can I learn basics?

[scarlet tiger]

If it helps, I learned Python on YouTube

🤨

[fast osprey]

We can disagree on this, but there is an insane amount of bad practice and misinformation with no accountability measures or peer review

[scarlet tiger]

Search on YouTube, but you must practice a lot to be able to learn this way. I learned like this

[fast osprey]

I personally recommend you get comfortable with reading articles, and use those from reputable sources that are reviewed to educational standards

If you only watch videos to satisfy your attention span, you are severely limiting yourself as most of the best content is written as that is the best medium for this information

[long cove]

I mean I don't want to be an expert I just want to know some basics like make commands and it sends a reply message

That's all I need

[fast osprey]

You won't be able to do that yourself unless you understand the concepts at play

[long cove]

For example

[fast osprey]

If youre just looking to copy paste something that someone else wrote without understanding it, that's a whole other thing

[long cove]

Ye

[long cove]

Question are there any codes on Google that I can copy paste to py?

[scarlet tiger]

Not all people learn the same. But if you are looking for a quick way go to YouTube.

[long cove]

Okay

[fast osprey]

And a lot of people who think they have learned are unaware of the depths of the bad practices they've ingrained in themselves by watching some rando making stuff up in his basement for YouTube clicks

[scarlet tiger]

If you only watch clips you will do poorly. Luckily in my community there are videos of more than 15 hours that teach everything. I speak Spanish 😅

[thorny frost]

could not get this to work, however this seems to work

    if user_message.startswith('?'):
        user_message = user_message[1:]
        if len(user_message) <= 0:
            return
        try:
            response: str = get_response(user_message)
            await message.author.send(response)
            await message.delete() 

[latent pier]

I'd like to see the full code

[thorny frost]

Sure, DM or here?

[latent pier]

You won't be able to do it with just basics discordpy requires much more knowledge of language

[long cove]

Yt ..?

[latent pier]

Especially this will need a good understanding of OOP concept

[viscid hornet]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

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.

[latent pier]

Here

[viscid hornet]

we have a pastebin for this 👍🏽

[latent pier]

Axo will help too 🤣

With late responses

[viscid hornet]

[latent pier]

I wouldn't recommend YT as it gets outdated in no time

[viscid hornet]

!blocking | you should use aiohttp instead of requests and this explains why

[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!

[latent pier]

Stop it Axo 🤣

[viscid hornet]

also what is your code supposed to do?

are you reading input like a command but with a message listener

[viscid hornet]

🤫

[latent pier]

That's complicated tho why don't you use dpy library instead

[latent pier]

You need it

[viscid hornet]

need what

[viscid hornet]

wdym?

[thorny frost]

It's supposed to delete commands that the user sends as private but not when they only send a "?"

[latent pier]

Emoji on yourself

[viscid hornet]

😭🤦🏽‍♂️

[viscid hornet]

so if i wrote “?sandwich” that can stay but if i wrote “sandwich” then that gets deleted?

[thorny frost]

no, if you wrote "?sandwich" it gets deleted and you get a private message with either a command output or an error message, "sandwich" would stay and do nothing

[viscid hornet]

wait i think i misunderstood. can you give me an example of what you want to happen?

ok hold on

[viscid hornet]

so send a user the error if they run a command and something goes wrong. did i get that right?

ok wait im overcomplicating. basically just send the user command output

[latent pier]

I'm assuming

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if not message.startswith("?"):
        await message.delete()

[thorny frost]

the "?" operator should make the bot send you a private message instead of output in the channel

[latent pier]

Isn't it same?

[viscid hornet]

but its supposed to do something before deleting, im guessing?

[latent pier]

Something like?

[thorny frost]

but it should not delete "?" if thats all the user sends

yes, if its more then a single "?"

[viscid hornet]

you should probably use commands for this. iirc nothing happens if its just the prefix

[thorny frost]

I had the code delete the "?" even tho the user should be allowed to send that. I have fixed that now!

[latent pier]

Not proper explaination

[viscid hornet]

nice 👍🏽. you should use commands for this and end each command with a delete unless theres a better way to do that for all commands

[thorny frost]

So i make the message deletion happen in the command?

[viscid hornet]

yes, pretty much

have you used commands before?

[thorny frost]

I see where you are coming from, however I don't see how I can make it work since I want to have "!" as public commands

Wouldn't that make it 2x the code?

[viscid hornet]

no not necessarily

[wanton current]

could override ctx.send and check the prefix

[viscid hornet]

wait this got more complicated

[viscid hornet]

tell me more

[thorny frost]

Imma head to bed, thanks for the input guys!

[viscid hornet]

alr np 👌

[viscid hornet]

i wouldve said just use a message listener and check if a message starts with a certain prefix and delete the message that way but i forgot commands have output 🤦🏽‍♂️

[fast osprey]

IMO on_command_completion would probably be more suitable

[viscid hornet]

had no idea that existed

[viscid hornet]

did you do work on dpy? you know a ton abt it

[wanton current]

class MyContext(commands.Context)

    async def send(self, *args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> discord.Message:
        if self.clean_prefix == "?":
            return await self.author.send(*args, **kwargs)
        else:
            return await super().send(*args, **kwargs)
``` ?

If I'm understanding the desired functionality correctly

Although you'd lose typing info on the parameters, but could probably fix that

[viscid hornet]

how would you use that in a command?

would you typehint to your new context class or make an instance of it already or what?

[wanton current]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/custom_context.py#L27-L32

        # use the new MyContext class

How do I make a python slash command?

@bot.tree or @app.commad

app command

but you need bot tree also

and dont forget to make a prefix command for syncing

nvm imma fix it somehow

        await self.bot.sync()
        await ctx.send("Listo")

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

?

[pale zenith]

Define within if not type checking ez

[viscid hornet]

in a cog you use app_cmds.cmd, but in your main file you use bot.tree.cmd

[slim bloom]

and how do I solve it?

[slim bloom]

[crisp glacier]

did ai do this

[sweet minnow]

btw it is a topgg vote tracker

[sweet minnow]

yeah partially helped me fixed it up a bit

[crisp glacier]

[sweet minnow]

i really wanted to learn

[crisp glacier]

yeah its all good

[viscid hornet]

yo im back

[crisp glacier]

hey

[viscid hornet]

did you check out the test webhook feature the guy mentioned?

[sweet minnow]

i dont have webook url/ auth token?

[crisp glacier]

bro lives in the help channels

[viscid hornet]

yeah. also its bot.tree.sync

[viscid hornet]

no the thing that lets you test if a vote has been made

[sweet minnow]

i said i tested the vote through actually voting

[slim bloom]

I put it as a prefix /

[sweet minnow]

and it didnt work as intended

[slim bloom]

?

[sweet minnow]

as in there is no print messages shown

[viscid hornet]

ngl i think this comes as this not being a valid event

[viscid hornet]

not advised

[crisp glacier]

gay son or thot daughter

[viscid hornet]

bro fuck off 😭

[sweet minnow]

ive looked at the topgg docs and i dont see other valid ways to implement this?

[crisp glacier]

[viscid hornet]

yeah doesnt exist

[viscid hornet]

check github and lmk what you find

[crisp glacier]

😭

[sweet minnow]

then wrong docs prob

what abt this one?

[viscid hornet]

!pypi dblpy

[unkempt canyon]

dblpy v0.4.0

A simple API wrapper for top.gg written in Python.

Released on <t:1599585545:D>.

[viscid hornet]

oh

[sweet minnow]

thats not correct either

[viscid hornet]

what isnt?

[sweet minnow]

not the same the version is different

im literally so confused rn

[viscid hornet]

well on dblpy i think i found what you’re looking for

[sweet minnow]

is it topgg or topggpy or dbl or dblpy... which is it?

[viscid hornet]

https://pypi.org/project/dblpy/ - check the “using webhook” section

[viscid hornet]

topgg and dbl are both websites - their py alternates are wrappers for interacting with their respective APIs

[sweet minnow]

then how do i get webhook url and pass/auth?

[viscid hornet]

dont you just need an API key?

[sweet minnow]

no?

[viscid hornet]

the wrapper takes care of the rest for you, would it not?

[sweet minnow]

ill have a look at it

[viscid hornet]

wait which site are you using?

i cant tell if its top.gg or dbl

[night crater]

You know topgg and dbl are the same site right?

[viscid hornet]

wait what

i swear they were different 😭

[night crater]

Dbl aka discordbotlist was the old site name before it became topgg

You are probably thinking of discord.bots.gg or discordboats

[viscid hornet]

how come its a separate site and they didnt depreciate it?

[night crater]

Because seo

Same reason why discordbots.com also redirects to topgg

[viscid hornet]

seo?

[night crater]

Wait NVM I'm the dumb one

[viscid hornet]

wait so if they’re the same website then how come they need different modules for each

[viscid hornet]

had my brain melting

[night crater]

Did someone else buy the old domain 🤔

[viscid hornet]

🤷🏽‍♂️

research and find out

[night crater]

Welp I feel old now

So much has changed xD

[sweet minnow]

top.gg

https://topggpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html
this is the correct one?

[viscid hornet]

yeah looks like it

[sweet minnow]

if i install topggpy, and use this one. what do i import?
i tried import topggpy, import topgg and both didnt work

[viscid hornet]

you just need a client instance or whatever, smth like that, and you should be good to go

[sweet minnow]

and says module not found error

[viscid hornet]

check the docs

should say what to import

[sweet minnow]

there is none?

[viscid hornet]

you just sent me a link

[sweet minnow]

ive read the docs

[viscid hornet]

ok so what does everything start with

should say X_name.Y_something

whats “X_name” in this case?

[sweet minnow]

topgg?

[sweet minnow]

^

[viscid hornet]

so thats what you’re importing

[viscid hornet]

what did you pip install?

[sweet minnow]

requirements.txt on vps

install*

[viscid hornet]

and whats in the requirements.txt file

!pypi topggpy

[unkempt canyon]
