thx so much

@pale zenith what is the error? py embed = discord.Embed(color=color_lace) embed.set_image(url=pfp_url) embed.set_footer(text=f"{self.bot.user.name} | autopfp", icon_url=self.bot.user.avatar.url) embed.timestamp=discord.utils.now()

[spice warren]

@pale zenith what is the error sir 👌

[pale zenith]

@pale zenith excuse me, what is the error

[slim bloom]

@pale zenith heya, what is the error

[pale zenith]

everyone asks what is the error, nobody asks how is the error 😔

[slim bloom]

@pale zenith you day are good?

[pale zenith]

anyway

send the error lol, idk what you expect me to say from that

actually I do. it is discord.utils.utcnow() not .now()

and both bot.user and user.avatar are optional

[slim bloom]

[slim bloom]

Error: list index out of range```

@pale zenith my love language

[spice warren]

@pale zenith i love u

[pale zenith]

my friend needs help and idk where to ask

[cosmic spoke]

Anyone interested in making a anime bot

[blissful crane]

bot=False ?

Interesting

All self bot related features have been deprecated since dpy 1.7.3 and removed later on

And I don't think helping with self bots is allowed

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

idk why im getting error but i am

[sick birch]

your bot doesn't have perms to add roles

[blissful crane]

Or your bot doesn't have permissions to add role to anyone

[copper flume]

?jsk py 
ow = discord.PermissionOverwrite()
ow.send_messages=False
await channel.set_permissions(guild.default_role, overwrite=ow)```
discord.py==2.3.2

According to me this code is supposed to set only send_messages to False, but it also resets other permissions along with setting send_messages to False. How do I prevent this?

[slim bloom]

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may violate terms of service, or that may be deemed inappropriate, malicious, or illegal.

[slim bloom]

selfbot 😂

[meager rock]

Instead of making a new permission overwrite instance, get the existing permissions of the channel

ow = channel.overwrites[role to edit]

[copper flume]

ok

Huh, 3 parts, btw I'm getting an error: Argument of type 'Result' is not iterable
In console

[nova vessel]

How'd I get the channel ID a command was invoked in?

[wispy falcon]

what is
await Bot.process_commands(message)
?

[upbeat otter]

for text commands

Context.channel.id

for slash commands

Interaction.channel.id```
where Context and Interaction are to be replaced with their respective instances from the commands

[upbeat otter]

it matches all the text/message commands that are in your code and runs them if applicable

[upbeat otter]

what does query.get() return

[distant fulcrum]

It has to return nations from query

[distant fulcrum]

You want some other command codes for seeing example?

[upbeat otter]

Can I see the output?

[distant fulcrum]

Traceback?

I didn't got any output in discord but I was expecting to get

[upbeat otter]

no I want to see what query.get returns

[distant fulcrum]

That code didn't gave any output

[shrewd apex]

whats kit here?

[distant fulcrum]

1 sec

kit = pnwkit.QueryKit(os.environ["Key"])

[shrewd apex]

looks ind of like graphql query

[distant fulcrum]

Yup

Key in that is my API key

[shrewd apex]

why are u not using the async api for kit tho

result = await query.get_async()

[distant fulcrum]

Ok

[shrewd apex]

btw print out result here to see what ur getting

[distant fulcrum]

    if result and "nations" in result:
        nations = result["nations"]```

Has errors bro

Operator "in" not supported for types "Literal['nations']" and "Result"

[shrewd apex]

in the line before the error lol

just do print(result)

[distant fulcrum]

Ok

[distant fulcrum]

'Await' outside function

[shrewd apex]

??

[distant fulcrum]

It worked when I remove await and async

import pnwkit

# Initialize pnwkit with your API key
kit = pnwkit.QueryKit("key")

query = kit.query("nations", {
        "min_score": 500,
        "max_score": 1000,
        "vmode": False,
        "color": ["blue", "yellow", "black", "orange", "red", "green", "white", "purple", "brown", "gray", "lime", "aqua", "pink", "maroon"], 
        "first": 300
    }, """
        id, nation_name, score, wars{def_id, def_resistance, att_money_looted}, alliance{name}, alliance_position_info{name}, num_cities, vacation_mode_turns, soldiers, tanks, aircraft, ships, color, leader_name, last_active
    """)
result = query.get()
print(result)```

[river mason]

Anyone know how lazy servers work?

Like the ones you don't get msgs by just connecting you gotta send a packet

[distant fulcrum]

@shrewd apex this gave me results in console

[shrewd apex]

and the result is?

[distant fulcrum]

@shrewd apex whats next?

[shrewd apex]

gimme a sec

https://github.com/mrvillage/pnwkit-py/blob/2a7aba3cefae73d2ac35e098468edc0de4e95d12/pnwkit/new.py#L966

[unkempt canyon]

pnwkit/new.py line 966

class Result:```

[shrewd apex]

can u do print(result.nations)

[distant fulcrum]

Ok

[distant fulcrum]

import pnwkit

# Initialize pnwkit with your API key
kit = pnwkit.QueryKit("key")

query = kit.query("nations", {
        "min_score": 500,

        "vmode": False,
        "color": ["blue", "yellow", "black", "orange", "red", "green", "white", "purple", "brown", "gray", "lime", "aqua", "pink", "maroon"],

    """)
result = query.get()
print(result)
nation_name = result.nations[0]["nation_name"]
print(nation_name)```

[shrewd apex]

bruh stop spamming the code

just send the result that was printed

[distant fulcrum]

Sorry

[shrewd apex]

yeah so the query works

if result and "nations" in result:
        nations = result["nations"]

this however is wrong because result is not a dictiorary of such data it is a class

what u want to do is just

nations = result.nations

[distant fulcrum]

I have to remove that?

From the code?

[hushed galleon]

it does pretend to be one tho
https://github.com/mrvillage/pnwkit-py/blob/master/pnwkit/data.py#L102-L106

[unkempt canyon]

pnwkit/data.py lines 102 to 106

def __getitem__(self, name: str) -> Any:
    try:
        return self.__getattribute__(name)
    except AttributeError as e:
        raise KeyError(name) from e```

[hushed galleon]

oh wait nevermind, the other data classes inherit that method but not result itself

[distant fulcrum]

Do I have to remove that from the code then?

[shrewd apex]

yep

[distant fulcrum]

Ok

[shrewd apex]

lol u should see their documentation on the result class https://docs.pnwkit-py.mrvillage.dev/en/latest/api.html#result

@pale zenith

[shrewd apex]

they took conciseness to another level

[shrewd apex]

ur data here is a string

[copper flume]

shouldn't be

[shrewd apex]

and ur basically trying to do "some_string"['user']

[copper flume]

but member is discord.Member object

[shrewd apex]

hmm that seems to be inside member.py

yeah interesting lemme take a look

[copper flume]

feels like a discord.py bug

[hushed galleon]

ya, that documentation has no examples/quickstart and the library uses some odd module names, but at least from a glance the source code looks fairly competent

[shrewd apex]

yep

[shrewd apex]

u sure the member is someone the bot has access to aka is in the server

this is a bit weird

[copper flume]

yes ofc

oh, it works

but gives error

[hushed galleon]

what discord.py version are you using? it kind of looks like the API response was malformed

hmm, looks like 2.3.2 as usual...

[shrewd apex]

is the error reproducible?

[hushed galleon]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/v2.3.2/discord/member.py#L912-L914
the TypeError would suggest await http.edit_member() received a non-json response, but why would the API return that without some abnormal status code?

[unkempt canyon]

discord/member.py lines 912 to 914

if payload:
    data = await http.edit_member(guild_id, self.id, reason=reason, **payload)
    return Member(data=data, guild=self.guild, state=self._state)```

[copper flume]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/9839

[hushed galleon]

random guess, can you try to do the raw API request and print out what it returns? py data = await ctx.bot.http.edit_member(ctx.guild.id, member.id, nick=nick or "") print(data)

[copper flume]

ok

[copper flume]

doesn't print anything

[hushed galleon]

not even an empty line?

[copper flume]

nah

[hushed galleon]

i would expect at least something to be printed, even if it was an error

[hushed galleon]

oh, at least that means the code did run

presumably it returned an empty string... that doesnt seem right

[shrewd apex]

lemme try to reproduce this lol

[hushed galleon]

i tested a minute ago and couldnt repro it

[shrewd apex]

hmm

[hushed galleon]

can you yield (type(data), repr(data)) just to be certain that its an empty string?

afterwards you can include the result of that command in your bug report

[copper flume]

wait

(<class 'str'>, "''")

a string inside a string?

lol

[hushed galleon]

do you think it could be an intents thing? your intents are quite minimal, but the most important one is guilds which you have, plus the api docs dont describe a situation where editing a member would return an empty body...

[copper flume]

does the work, but gives the error

in the edit() function

[copper flume]

not intent issue as because the same code used to work a few days ago

i got this error today only

[shrewd apex]

nope couldnt reproduce

[copper flume]

💀

[pale zenith]

@copper flume nvm

I'm so confused.

[copper flume]

.

actually

I'm using https://github.com/twilight-rs/http-proxy

[pale zenith]

you should mention that in your issue too...

[copper flume]

ok

[pale zenith]

cc @spice warren

that is probably your issue btw. whatever the fuck that library is doing is fucking with the api. consider not using it?

[spice warren]

mfw raising it here instead of answering on the github issue they made

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/9839

[pale zenith]

they pinged me here directly

[copper flume]

check

they are also banned from discord.py for being rude and offensive to helpers, do with that information what you will

[pale zenith]

noted

[hushed galleon]

wait, so this twilight-http-proxy is a discord API mock?

[spice warren]

no

[copper flume]

Yeah.

[spice warren]

middleman for requests for """faster and better handling"""

its just a http proxy

[copper flume]

handles request in a better way which doesn't cause CF Bans

[pale zenith]

http-proxy looks to be the proxy itslef, while twilight-http-proxy seems to be a handler for twighlight-http which accounts for the fucked up api responses that the proxy returns

[spice warren]

This is not how you avoid CF bans at all, lol

Discord.py already does what it can to prevent you getting banned, but terrible user code often wins
You were told this numerous times and the arguments that ensued are what led to your ban

[pale zenith]

Oh I remember this peson now

Yep

Aka reverting something that someone did with permissions that they shouldn't have

[torn orchid]

Hi guys. Help pls. How to create a ephemeral message?

[quick gust]

ephemeral = True

[torn orchid]

Where?

[timber dragon]

In interaction.response.send_message

Or in ctx.send if its a hybrid command

[slate swan]

Hi guys!
How do i install discord.py in replit? Using python

[upbeat otter]

pip install discord.py in the shell tab

[slate swan]

Ooohhh

[quick gust]

while sending the message

[slate swan]

Okay thank you thank god

[upbeat otter]

god 💀

[rain hedge]

example:

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

[timber dragon]

You can only send an ephemeral on response to an interaction

So when invoking that command via the slash menu

Setting the prefix to "/" doesn't do anything special

[azure glacier]

Hello, does anyone have good tutorial about slash commands in Cogs? I wrote simple bot with one cog and run into error which i cant fix. I tried every possible solution on internet but nothing worked. I created post on python-help but noone answered. Can someone help me with this?

[azure glacier]

OK i found my problem, i pass server id as string not int 🤣

[fast osprey]

You also should not be syncing in on_ready (or probably doing anything in it)

[azure glacier]

yeah, i've already move those parts to setup hook

[wanton current]

not better 💀

[hushed galleon]

btw have you turned on type checking? pylance might have been able to detect that mismatched type before you ran the bot

[azure glacier]

why not? many sources i found on the internet syncing slash command in setpu hook or on_ready function and it works.

[wanton current]

"works" and "is optimal" are two different things

[azure glacier]

hmm in this case I guess not.

[shrewd apex]

well its recommended to sync usually only when u change ur command signatures, or define new or remove commands which u might not always do everytime

[azure glacier]

for self taught like me "works" is good enough

[hushed galleon]

you should turn it on then, its quite useful given that dpy has plenty of typehints to analyze

[wanton current]

What does being self-taught have to do with it, aren't we all self-taught since you can't really take a university course on discord.py? Anyway, wouldn't you strive for the best, and not settle with something that works? It's of course up to you, but I'm just saying that there's a better way to do things.

[shrewd apex]

dpy uni course 💀

first class debate on different libraries dpy vs disnake vs pycord/nextcord (honorable mention hikari)

[wanton current]

only really different one being hikari

[azure glacier]

You are right but improvement comes along with time and experience. Now I just want to make a bot, play with it and have fun. If you have some good learning material I'd be happy to take a look at them.

[unreal quest]

could anyone help me with slash commands?

i am trying to make a command which returns the pfp of the user

[wanton current]

That's fine

[unreal quest]

@client.tree.command(name="image", description="Displays the avatar of a user.")
async def avatar(ctx, member: discord.Member = None):
    if member == None:
        member = ctx.author
    embed = discord.Embed(title = member).set_image(url = member.avatar.url)
    await ctx.send(embed = embed)

[slate swan]

slash commands dont have context

[unreal quest]

so how would i send the image?

[slate swan]

they have Interaction

and it has .user property

!d discord.Interaction.user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.user

The user or member that sent the interaction.

[unreal quest]

thanks

[wanton current]

Check this out: https://about.abstractumbra.dev/discord.py/2023/01/30/app-command-examples.html

[unreal quest]

so how would i send the message

instead of ctx

[mossy stream]

wait

you can code discord bots with pythn?

[unreal quest]

yea

[slate swan]

await interaction.response.send_message(...)

[mossy stream]

cool

[wanton current]

You can code discord bots in any language that supports web requests

[glad cradle]

the best of 'em all is

[slate swan]

nextcord

[glad cradle]

(doesn't support files in some places yet)

[slate swan]

i know what you want to hear

[glad cradle]

say it then 🔫

[slate swan]

na

[wanton current]

say it

[blissful crane]

Say it right now

[stone gate]

hey! i want to make a function of my bot to just stop if its on a thread this is for a very specific reason that will take me a while to explain, lets say i just want to say:

    return```

[fast osprey]

Can check the type of message.channel

[stone gate]

do you have any reference for that? :0

[fast osprey]

!d discord.Message.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.channel

The TextChannel or Thread that the message was sent from. Could be a DMChannel or GroupChannel if it’s a private message.

[fast osprey]

• using isinstance to see if it's type is Thread

[stone gate]

so, like this? if isinstance(message.channel, discord.Thread):

it worked, thanks!

[slim bloom]

@pale zenith great dear sir, could you help me? please

[slate swan]

Does anyone have a bot like restorcord?

[slate swan]

that's so weird... it just doesn't send the image for me. :/

how to make a discord selfbot to auto accept friend requests

[spice warren]

You don't get selfbot help anywhere, they're against ToS.

[copper flume]

Why the check @commands.bot_has_permissions(move_members=True) returns False even if the bot has admin permission but not with @commands.bot_has_guild_permissions(move_members=True)

@spice warren

[spice warren]

I refuse to help racist and rude people

[timber dragon]

Channel (and role?) vs Guild perms

[copper flume]

but bot has admin permission

[timber dragon]

Also text vs voice channel

move_members will be False in a text channel iirc

Idk how exactly perms work

[copper flume]

oh

[fast osprey]

Your bot should not have admin

[slim bloom]

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may violate terms of service, or that may be deemed inappropriate, malicious, or illegal.

[copper flume]

what? why not

[lyric solar]

can i somehow make private threads??

[midnight oracle]

You can

If it's yours

[hushed galleon]

sure, TextChannel.create_thread() creates private threads by default

[lyric solar]

huhh?? i thought it creates a public thread

[copper flume]

why should I remove admin permission?

[hushed galleon]

type (Optional[ChannelType]) – The type of thread to create. If a message is passed then this parameter is ignored, as a thread created with a message is always a public thread. By default this creates a private thread if this is None.

[lyric solar]

because it literally has every permission
you don't need it all unless you use it all or it's in a test server

[lyric solar]

ohh, thank you

[midnight oracle]

You don't have to

[lyric solar]

is there a minimum archive minute thing

auto_archive_duration=15
i have it set to 15

[copper flume]

i don't need to give it admin perms??

[lyric solar]

no??

[midnight oracle]

That's what I'm saying xd

[copper flume]

why will i remove admin permission?

[lyric solar]

safety

[midnight oracle]

What they are trying to say is that the bot should only have the permissions it will use, the others are not necessary

[copper flume]

bro

[hushed galleon]

according to the same docs, only 60, 1440, 4320, or 10080 are allowed

[midnight oracle]

In my opinion, that's a thing of preference

[copper flume]

my question is, the bot has admin permission which means the bot has all the permissions

but still it says that the bot doesn't have the permissions

and check is failed

[midnight oracle]

Did you invited the bot with admin permissions?

[copper flume]

yes.

[midnight oracle]

also enabled all the intents?

[copper flume]

not presence intent

[midnight oracle]

can I see the error message, that's weird

[copper flume]

no error, it says move_members permission is set to False

?jsk py channel.permissions_for(ctx.me).move_members```

got it, move_members is false for text channels and not for voice channels as said above by soheab.

[lyric solar]

and thats in minutes???

im digging through the discord.py src, f that

[hushed galleon]

that aint just a dpy thing, its a discord API restriction
https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#start-thread-without-message

you can tell cause the error you got was 400 Bad Request, which only comes from sending the discord API something invalid

[lyric solar]

oh 😔

[unreal quest]

how do i check if someone has reacted to a message the that bot has add reactions to, in a @app_commands.command

I am making a quiz game, and the bot reacts with 4 emojis, and i want it to detect if you choose the correct one

[fast osprey]

There is no reason, literally, to give a bot more permissions than it needs to do its stated purpose besides laziness

If you are optimizing on saving 5 whole ass minutes of scrutinizing what your bot needs to do, your priorities are hilariously wrong

[lyric solar]

@hushed galleon sorry for disturbing but how can i give my bot like 4 shards?

[pale zenith]

Huh

[lyric solar]

hi leonardo

[hushed galleon]

uhh, AutoShardedBot(shard_count=4) i presume? i dont touch sharding all that much

[pale zenith]

Yo

[pale zenith]

side note: adding more shards changes nothing if it's all in a single process

[hushed galleon]

ive wondered that too, dpy doesnt mention using any form of IPC or whatnot with sharding

[lyric solar]

wdym by this??

like 4 shards will act like 1 shard?

[hushed galleon]

or rather the doc explicitly says the opposite, "not having to deal with IPC or other complicated infrastructure"

what is the point of AutoShardedClient then? for bots in 2500+ guilds that arent yet performance constrained?

[pale zenith]

More like you don't gain any performance increase by using a single auto sharded client. It's still a single event loop and a single process

[pale zenith]

Pretty much

Friend of mine had a bot in 100k guilds on a single process, then it was too much and had to do actual, proper clustering and shit, and now he's rewriting the entire bot

[hushed galleon]

huh, dpy's shard support must be simpler than i imagined

definitely sounds like it'd be a tough journey restructuring a single process bot for that scale

well, i guess it depends on how much shared memory / cached stuff you were relying on

[pale zenith]

Each shard gets an asyncio task that wraps a worker coro, and there's a main loop which handles the things that the worker _queue_puts.
The actual websocket class is the same as a normal client's, except there are multiple websocket connections. One for each shard. So the logic is the same for dispatching events etc, except it receives events from multiple ws

[hushed galleon]

looking at that disconnect handling reminded me of the weirdness i did when i tried writing my gateway wrapper, specifically having to unwrap the first exception out of a group to handle it
https://github.com/thegamecracks/discord-ws/blob/main/src/discord_ws/client/client.py#L239-L250

[unkempt canyon]

src/discord_ws/client/client.py lines 239 to 250

try:
    async with self._connect(gateway_url) as ws:
        await self._handle_connection(session_id=session_id)
except* ConnectionClosed as eg:
    # Multiple errors should still be from the same connection,
    # so we're only interested in handling the first occurrence
    e = _unwrap_first_exception(eg)
    assert e is not None
    reconnect = self._handle_connection_closed(e) and reconnect
except* (GatewayInterrupt, HeartbeatLostError):
    if not reconnect:
        raise```

[hushed galleon]

and that was only for one connection, im still not sure how i'd rewrite it to avoid exception groups here

[lyric solar]

dyno's coded in python right?

nvm

its in nodejs

[copper flume]

class IDK(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self,
                 bot

        view = Panel(...)
        self.pending_panel_message = await intr.response.send_message(

        self._panel_pending = True
        await view.wait()
        self._panel_pending = False```
how is self.pending_panel_message None?

[shrewd apex]

u set it to None?

[copper flume]

yes by default

but should be changed

[shrewd fjord]

sup fellas

[shrewd apex]

hell

[copper flume]

did my python3.11 interpreter die

[shrewd apex]

!d discord.Interaction.send_message

[shrewd fjord]

huh isnt this script from the official dpy example? seems familiar

[copper flume]

no not any example

i coded myself

[shrewd fjord]

?

[shrewd apex]

nvm point is send_message returns None

[copper flume]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[shrewd apex]

u need to use original_response()

[shrewd fjord]

^

!d discord.Interaction.original_response

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.original\_response

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

Fetches the original interaction response message associated with the interaction.

If the interaction response was a newly created message (i.e. through [`InteractionResponse.send_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.send_message) or [`InteractionResponse.defer()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.InteractionResponse.defer), where `thinking` is `True`) then this returns the message that was sent using that response. Otherwise, this returns the message that triggered the interaction (i.e. through a component).

Repeated calls to this will return a cached value.

[shrewd apex]

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

i see

[pale zenith]

first time I've ever seen except*

that is cool though

[lyric solar]

how do i put a cooldown on a bot.tree.command

😭

[patent hull]

iirc it should be @app_commands.checks.cooldown

[lyric solar]

and how do i set it

@app_commands.checks.cooldown(60)?

[hushed galleon]

!d discord.app_commands.checks.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.checks.cooldown

@discord.app_commands.checks.cooldown(rate, per, *, key=...)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a command.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns are based off of the `key` function provided. If a `key` is not provided then it defaults to a user-level cooldown. The `key` function must take a single parameter, the [`discord.Interaction`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.Interaction) and return a value that is used as a key to the internal cooldown mapping.

The `key` function can optionally be a coroutine.

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown) is raised to the error handlers.

Examples

Setting a one per 5 seconds per member cooldown on a command:

[hushed galleon]

so at least 2 args, rate/per

How could I make the bot leave the guild it's messaging users on once it's finished

sounds like its being used for malicious purpose ngl

? Used for a giveaway bot which reminds people to click the "claim button" once the giveaway is done

[patent hull]

i also think that

[slate swan]

^

[slate swan]

[patent hull]

o

nvm, guild.leave should work fine

[lyric solar]

then why would u wanna guild.leave

[slate swan]

for a server event

[slate swan]

yeah it doesnt 💀

[patent hull]

:fall:

[slate swan]

print still sends tho

saying "left ... server"

[patent hull]

no errors raised?

[slate swan]

nope

[patent hull]

you aren't consuming/handling the errors?

[slate swan]

dont think so

[lyric solar]

??

thegamecracks has been typing for a while now lol

[hushed galleon]

yas im thinking

[lyric solar]

okay

[hushed galleon]

ah i remember now, the receive loop and heartbeat run in different tasks so my TaskGroup wraps it in an exception group in case both fail at the same time... im still not sure how i would write a handler that would check every exception instead of ignoring the rest... i guess .subgroup(predicate) would be involved?

[hushed galleon]

have you written error handlers for slash commands before?

[lyric solar]

perchance

@bot.tree.error
async def on_error(interaction: discord.Interaction, error: app_commands.AppCommandError) -> None:
    if isinstance(error, app_commands.CheckFailure):
        try:
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"No permission!")
        except discord.InteractionResponded:
            await interaction.followup.send(f"No permission!")
    else:
        raise error```

did this a while ago idk if it'll still work

[hushed galleon]

the cooldown doc has an example that includes a local error handler for the command, but putting it in your global handler would be a good idea: py @bot.tree.error async def on_tree_error(interaction: discord.Interaction, error: app_commands.AppCommandError): if isinstance(error, app_commands.CommandOnCooldown): await interaction.response.send_message(f"You're on cooldown for {error.retry_after} seconds!", ephemeral=True) else: raise error

!d discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandOnCooldown

exception discord.app_commands.CommandOnCooldown(cooldown, retry_after)```
An exception raised when the command being invoked is on cooldown.

This inherits from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CheckFailure).

New in version 2.0.

[lyric solar]

found it lmao

[hushed galleon]

right, attributes dont show in the embed... well anyway the exception has a .cooldown attribute if you want to show the rate/per limit too

[slate swan]

how do you like untimeout someone 💀

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member.timeout

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.timeout

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

Applies a time out to a member until the specified date time or for the given [`datetime.timedelta`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.timedelta).

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

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.edit).

[slate swan]

If None is passed then the timeout is removed

[upbeat otter]

the API probably does not provide enough data on that endpoint for dpy to construct a TextChannel/VoiceChannel

you can get the id of the channel and getch it

[copper flume]

ok

[copper flume]

but the channel is deleted so i don't think I can fetch it

if entry.action == discord.AuditLogAction.channel_delete:
                channel  = entry.target```

[upbeat otter]

well. try to get it

it is None

Can I ues python let the arduino development board recognize the QR code and trigger specific actions based on different QR codes, such as controlling the switch and brightness of the light?

[copper flume]

@pale zenith how do I get TextChannel/VoiceChannel object?

do i need to store it in cache in the on_guild_channel_delete event?

[drowsy thunder]

Hello guys wassup

[blissful crane]

If it's deleted how is it meant to be cloned

[naive briar]

Pure hope

[copper flume]

I got the solution

I stored it in cache

in on_guild_channel_delete event

[gritty thorn]

if i send the command the bot respond me twice, and i cant put await because is a traceback

[fast osprey]

You shouldn't be doing those things in on_ready. That event fires repeatedly and randomly

[gritty thorn]

so how where i put the cog

[shrewd apex]

setup_hook

[fast osprey]

What library and version are you using?

[gritty thorn]

mean discord.py?

[gritty thorn]

how

@bot.setup_hook

[timber dragon]

Subclass Bot and override it

[fast osprey]

Adding cogs is async as of 2.0

[gritty thorn]

some sample?

[timber dragon]

Instead of doing async setup in on_ready, or using a task which may lead to events being called before that task runs, you can overwrite Client/Bot.setup_hook.

For example: ```py

subclassing commands.Bot

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
# overriding setup_hook and doing our stuff in it
async def setup_hook(self):
# self is the bot here
print(f"Logged in as: {self.user}")
# can load your extensions here:
# await self.load_extension(...)

using the class:

bot = MyBot(command_prefix=..., intents=..., ...)

notice how we previously used:

bot = # commands.Bot(command_prefix=..., intents=..., ...)

but now our subclass.

Docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.setup_hook

[gritty thorn]

-_- im dumb

[gritty thorn]

was trying hook, but isnt work prob my error

cant fix

[timber dragon]

What isn't working?

[fast osprey]

Also, show more code. You most likely have an on_message listener somewhere

[gritty thorn]

Ok wait

I open the pc and record

[fast osprey]

If you're adding cogs, we're going to need that code too

[gritty thorn]

mmmm ok

wait

main.py

from discord.ext import commands
from variables import TOKEN, ACTIVIDAD,PREFIX 
from comandos.general.help import Help
intents = discord.Intents.all() #all / default
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=PREFIX, intents=intents)
cogs = [Help]
@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Streaming(name=(ACTIVIDAD), url="https://www.youtube.com/) #Streaming/Idle/Playing
    print(f'¡Bot {bot.user.name} conectado!')
    for cog in cogs:
         bot.add_cog(cog(bot))
bot.run(TOKEN)```

def setup(bot):
bot.add_cog(Help(bot))```

cogs= [help, meme, search,...]

[fast osprey]

Take all of the code out of on_ready and put it in the right place, first

Any of these cogs could be changing behavior

[twilit grotto]

class Ayuda(commands.Cog):

    bot.add_cog(Help(bot))```

your class name isnt Help

[gritty thorn]

wait

[gritty thorn]

but the error isnt the name

[twilit grotto]

ik i was just pointing that out

[gritty thorn]

i just forgot, just sample

the bot send me twice

hi i need a little bit help.

So i made a bot in python on windows he works perfectly but on my rpi to host it, it doesn't work cuz the font i use for the welcome message

Idk how i can fix it ping me

What does "welcome message" mean here

[gritty thorn]

ik but the bot send me twice 😦

[fast osprey]

.

[dusk violet]

the image the bot sends when a ppl joins the server

[fast osprey]

So you're generating an image then? With something like PIL?

[dusk violet]

ye w PIL

[fast osprey]

What's the error?

my friend said something about being able to upload a 25mb image

any hints? 🙂

im using hybrid for slash commands

[fading marlin]

Add a parameter to your command callback and set the type-hint to discord.Attachment

is that even a discord bots related problem?

[slate swan]

No, now that i think of it

thanks gang

[subtle jolt]

😉

[quick gust]

I think you can't, but you can use RoleSelect

[upbeat otter]

!d discord.ui.RoleSelect

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.RoleSelect

class discord.ui.RoleSelect(*, custom_id=..., placeholder=None, min_values=1, max_values=1, disabled=False, row=None, default_values=...)```
Represents a UI select menu with a list of predefined options with the current roles of the guild.

Please note that if you use this in a private message with a user, no roles will be displayed to the user.

New in version 2.1.

[young dagger]

How can I reach the latest message from each channel in a category on on_ready?

lfg_category_id = 1204554345815875606
last_user_message = {}

class MyClient(commands.Bot):
    async def on_ready(self):

        for guild in self.guilds:
            # Find the category by ID
            category = discord.utils.get(guild.categories, id=lfg_category_id)

            if category:
                for channel in category.text_channels:
                    # Fetch the latest message for each text channel
                    async for msg in channel.history(limit=1):
                        last_user_message[channel.id] = msg

Or is there any better way to do it?

[fast osprey]

Cmon

!d discord.on_ready

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_ready

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

Warning

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

[fast osprey]

Short of it is no, you shouldn't use on_ready for 99.9% of things

[upper kiln]

You are right, I'm going to fetch the messages dynamically by using on_message instead

[fast osprey]

What library and version are you using?

[slim bloom]

For shards do you only need Autoshandebot or do you need to do something else?

[hushed galleon]

well, if there's anything to use on_ready for it'd be that, because on_ready is your chance to deal with any events your bot missed since the last disconnect - my main reason to go with on_message here would be not wanting to make X requests on every channel, even if it means the cache being inconsistent for some time

[hushed galleon]

#discord-bots message if you're not looking for performance benefits and just need your bot to work with a large number of guilds, then sure you can use that

[slim bloom]

And what could I do to benefit performance?

[hushed galleon]

split your bot into multiple processes and coordinate their sharding so they each handle a subset of the guilds your bot is in

a database, message queue, or some other form of IPC may be necessary to make certain features of your bot work properly under that architecture
running those processes on separate computers might also help if you're starting to exceed the capabilities of a single system, but at that point you might want some orchestration software like kubernetes or whatev (tbh horizontal scaling is beyond my knowledge)

[young dagger]

Would you do this in a different way? What do you think of the code? https://paste.pythondiscord.com/N2VA

[shrewd apex]

wouldn't that require some form of a load balancer to coordinate between shards

[hushed galleon]

ergh, hard to avoid a history() call in this use case for reliability, but i would suggest fetching at least the last 100 messages (1 API call) exactly once after on_ready, because only storing 1 message might make you miss out on that user's last message if someone else posted something

[hushed galleon]

isn't discord already load balancing based on shard ID? or do you mean something different?

[shrewd apex]

does it haven't used sharding much at all would discord send requests to particular shards to which a guild is assigned which that particular bot shard would receive directly?

what happens if a particular shard is down does it get forwarded to some other shard?

[hushed galleon]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#sharding
DM events go to shard ID 0 while guild events go to the shard ID calculated by (guild_id >> 22) % num_shards

presumably if a shard goes down, you don't get to receive events from that subset of guilds

[shrewd apex]

i see ty 😄

this might be a bit interesting to test and play with I'll try it out this weekend

whats some common refactoring do u reckon sharded bots would require

[young dagger]

The goal is to prevent a member from sending multiple messages in a row without another member posting in between.

[hushed galleon]

oh, then limit=1 would be fine

[young dagger]

We just need to compare it with the latest message

[hushed galleon]

a different thing, if you're only handling on_message then you dont need to check that their message IDs are different

[young dagger]

You mean that message.channel.id and message.author.id should be enough?

That is actually true

[hushed galleon]

also wouldnt that mean mapping author ID to message ID is unnecessary?

just mapping channel ID to author ID would be enough to know if a new message is consecutive

well i guess message ID too for deletion

[young dagger]

Oh yeah

[hushed galleon]

oh right, still need message to delete it

{channel ID: message obj} then, which is also kinda close to the built-in channel.last_message

though the latter is a bit less reliable since it uses the bot's message cache, capped to 1k messages by default

How can you allow emoji to support links too..? but also support discord.PartialEmoji?

[glad cradle]

i have a guide about clustering if you need it

at least, that's what a "friend" of mine does for his bot

[shrewd apex]

sure that would be cool planning to write a bunch of guides once i figure out the stuff myself

send it in devconnect

[nova vessel]

message_lines.append(f"Game: {game_name}, Whitelisted: {whitelisted}, Discord Mention: {}, Discord ID: {discord_id}")

How can I place the user's mention using the user's Discord ID?

That feels way to simple 🤣

Was expecting some nautical line haha

[wanton current]

lol

[vapid parcel]

Is there a limit to how many apps can be in a team?

[slate swan]

this isnt tachinally related, but im curious can you not use emojis with weebhooks anymore? im trying to make a webhook with emojis. but it wont let me. seems like its not supported? any alternatives

i just made my own embed and when i do the emoji it just sends as the name. its in my serverf

how can i make it send emojis in webhook/embed builder?

[pale zenith]

Yeah you can't anymore

[slate swan]

stupid asf

[pale zenith]

Guess you could make the webhook using your user account though

[slate swan]

discord always gotta remove some dope shit

[pale zenith]

I think they respect the crator's emoji list?

[slate swan]

i saw people use ticket bot for it, but i like to use my own bots

[pale zenith]

Idk tbh

Yeah that doesn't work anymore

They changed it like a few years ago

[slate swan]

do you happen to know the format? i seen other ppl doing it with bots in discord servers.

idk if its stil <::>

[pale zenith]

That's the one

Discord will remove the format if your bot doesn't have access to the emoji of course. That's what is going on currently. But the format has not changed.

[slate swan]

odd then. for me it doesnt work in embeds. for anything. although other servers are? im using their same bot too

not sure why discord gotta make my life so HARD

[frail badger]

Anyone know how to code a script so staff members can manage their shift?

[fast osprey]

"Staff members", "manage", and "shift" are all not discord native concepts that you'll have to define what they mean

[subtle jolt]

This is however limited to 25 options or so, correct? Is there any way to bypass this or to have multiple select menus with a different set of 25 roles?

[glad cradle]

you can't bypass that and iirc you can't either choose the roles to display

[subtle jolt]

just found out you can type in the damn thing to filter results 😭

[glad cradle]

yeah

that's the same for User select menus

[copper flume]

what could be the reason for sending 3 messages at a time on executing a command in a particular server?

Like if I use snipe command it replies thrices instead of once and it only happens with that particular server RARELY

same in case of welcomer, sometimes it sends 3 welcome message and sometimes 2 and sometimes 1

when the bot was newly added there it used to send welcome message thrice everytime but these days it has reduced and it only happens with that server and no other server.

discord.py v2.3.2

[upbeat otter]

does this happen for every command and event

[copper flume]

I have only noticed this for welcomer event and every command

[upbeat otter]

is your bot hosted on a vps Or anywhere else?

[copper flume]

DigitalOcean VPS

no double hosting

[upbeat otter]

did the issue start occurring after you started hosting it?

[copper flume]

wdym

[rain hedge]

A shift manage bot?

i don't know how to make one, but know the general idea of how it should look like

I reccomend using an already existing one like trident

[upbeat otter]

like did multiple messages start after you started hosting the bot

[copper flume]

no

[nova vessel]

await interaction.guild.fetch_member(self.user_id).add_roles(await interaction.guild.get_role(1176333330095022101))

Would this work?

Instead of grabbing the user object and role object, storing them in variables, could I get the user objects when I invoke the add_roles command or would this not work?

[wanton current]

fwiw you can just give add_roles a abc.Snowflake created with a discord.Object instead

also get_role is not a coro

[nova vessel]

So the above code snippet would not work?

[wanton current]

^

it would error since you can't await a Role

[nova vessel]

ah

[wanton current]

It'd work otherwise (probably)

[nova vessel]

I've never really worked with the snowflake thing before.

[wanton current]

it's basically just the most slimmed down version of a discord object with only the id

[undone arch]

hi, im having problems with modals
it does what it's supposed to, but it still says "Something went wrong" for some reason

no errors either

do i js send my code here?

[wanton current]

you need to respond to the interaction in your on_submit

/ your modal callback

[undone arch]

oh

[alpine kelp]

guys quick question, how do i remove a specific option from a Select?

[shrewd apex]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.Select.options use the options property u will get a list of options u can alter that directly or set it urself

then edit the message with the new view

[slate swan]

yo any1 that can tell me how hard this is to do dm for more info [ pls help]

[wanton current]

why dm

[slate swan]

bc reason

[wanton current]

thanks for the clarification

[slate swan]

my bad

idk rlly

[pale zenith]

[wanton current]

leo definitely knows

[pale zenith]

You can just send here lol???

[slate swan]

ok

so like idk anything about python but im tryna make this bot its gonna like show ur yt data ur twitter data and like if u are in a like 1 of the cords: 1130674447691563098 949885234713874512 1164702469599809567 934502745799540806 878071596793868338 889555844532940821 1125049907665977344 950298999481577472 1079391058724655104 1130712939100393563 1176629172597162065 1127414115523104830 1005535080065806347 1020151586133114941 1174999989433405450 1233573788243988540 1187299258618085396 1236703778086981744 1191502660696817664 1191502660696817664 859302615547117629

so is that hard to make

[pale zenith]

I see, yeah, bots can't access that information. To access someone's connections, you need to prompt them to log in with discord with the correct scope.

[slate swan]

mhhhhh it could tho if u have ur twitter and yt linked

[pale zenith]

Then you can access it in your website's backend and store it somewhere.

[slate swan]

to ur discord right?

[shrewd apex]

only if u get access to it via appropriate oauth scopes

[pale zenith]

As stated before, you need to use oauth to access the linked accounts, not with a bot. It is impossible using only a bot.

[slate swan]

i have a bot that can do it but im tryna make myt own

[shrewd apex]

meaning u need to make some form of discord dashboard prompting users to login

[slate swan]

just needs to show sum public

data yk subs like tweets stuff like that

[pale zenith]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/user#get-current-user-connections

[slate swan]

waht is that?

[pale zenith]

The way to get the linked accounts (connections)

[slate swan]

oh ty

but like how hard is it bc idk anything about python

[pale zenith]

Not easy but probably not too hard, but it will require the knowledge of setting up a website to receive the oauth2 response

Also, that's off-topic for this channel, because it's not a discord bot.

[slate swan]

like whats off

[wanton current]

definitely difficult if you have no prior python knowledge

[slate swan]

lol yes

[shrewd apex]

i doubt he got the concept of what oauth is

[slate swan]

mhhh i dont rlly lol

[pale zenith]

it would definitely require the knowledge of how to make a website so yeah, not easy lol

[shrewd apex]

have u used top.gg?

[slate swan]

who?

[shrewd apex]

disboard?

ever seen sites with option like "login with discord"?

[slate swan]

i dont use disboard y

[shrewd apex]

nvm

[alpine kelp]

how do u expect to make it when u dont know shi about python 😭

[slate swan]

anyone knows how to do this with app_commands ?

the role selection thing

[glad cradle]

annotate the command argument with discord.Role (assuming that you are using discord.py)

[slate swan]

thank you im gonna try :)

[slate swan]

how do i make certain roles be able to use .gen please someone help me

async def gen(ctx, amount):
    key_amt = range(int(amount))
    f = open("keys.txt", "a")
    show_key = ''
    for x in key_amt:
        key = str(uuid.uuid4())
        show_key += "\n" + key
        f.write(key)
        f.write("\n")

    if len(str(show_key)) == 37:
        show_key = show_key.replace('\n', '')
        await ctx.send(f"Key: {show_key}")
        return 0
    if len(str(show_key)) > 37:
        await ctx.send(f"Keys: {show_key}")
    else:
        await ctx.send("Somthings wrong")```

@slate swan Python

[fast osprey]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_any_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_any\_role

@discord.ext.commands.has_any_role(*items)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check) that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has **any** of the roles specified. This means that if they have one out of the three roles specified, then this check will return `True`.

Similar to [`has_role()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.has_role), the names or IDs passed in must be exact.

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

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`MissingAnyRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingAnyRole) or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage) instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure)

[slate swan]

@glad cradle do you know if i can filter the roles in the selection ?

[glad cradle]

you can't

you can use an autocomplete for that but you'll provide roles names, not as fancy as this one

[slate swan]

okay thx

[inner glade]

discord.Option --> discord.Role as the type

[karmic oriole]

how can i convert this to a slash command, i dont know any other method of puring besides ctx.channel.purge

@commands.cooldown(1, 5, commands.BucketType.user)
@bot.command(aliases=get_config("purge_aliases"))
async def purge(ctx):
    allowed_roles_ids = [str(role_id) for role_id in get_config("allowed_purge_roles")]
    user_role_ids = [str(role.id) for role in ctx.author.roles]

    if any(role_id in allowed_roles_ids for role_id in user_role_ids):
        await ctx.channel.purge()
        await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.display_name}, Messages purged!", delete_after=5)
    else:
        await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.display_name}, You are NOT allowed to do that!", delete_after=5)

[nova vessel]

Is there a way to get the label assigned to a forum post?

[fast osprey]

The tags? Yes

[blissful crane]

Channel.purge will purge regardless of whether it was called from a prefix or an interaction command

[karmic oriole]

Oh

Thanks

[vapid parcel]

YouTube is the only streaming service/platform that is against Music bots correct..?

[karmic oriole]

using slash commands, how do i check if the user running the command has the manage messages commands?

[vapid parcel]

@commands.has_permissions(permission)
or
@app_commands.checks.has_permissions(permission)

Example:

@app_commands.checks.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
or
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)

You can check all the valid permissions here

[karmic oriole]

Is it possible to use like a if function like if has-permission == True

[vapid parcel]

Id recommend the way dpy does it, because then you can setup error handling, which will handle the missing permissions for you instead of you doing it yourself.

[twilit grotto]

otherwise you could always check ctx.author.guild_permissions

i think*

[karmic oriole]

I prefer doing it myself (mainly bc I don’t know how to use the error handling lol)

[vapid parcel]

You can, but don't recommend doing it that way, because you have to setup error handling for that instance. But if you just do it how dpy does it, you can do it for all instances.

[karmic oriole]

Using slash command so ctx don’t work

[twilit grotto]

yeah ik

[vapid parcel]

interaction.author

[twilit grotto]

yes it would

[vapid parcel]

same way.

[twilit grotto]

interaction = ctx

[karmic oriole]

Oh

[vapid parcel]

No no no no 😭

[twilit grotto]

well like

[vapid parcel]

No bro

[karmic oriole]

It don’t even work

[vapid parcel]

Just no

[twilit grotto]

ok egotard just keep saying no

aint even let me type my response

[vapid parcel]

Interaction and ctx are completely different...

They are for differen't thing. Can ctx do buttons? I don't think so. Interaction can. Ctx can't do half the things interaction can do.

[karmic oriole]

ye but its simpler

[twilit grotto]

yes i understand that but i meant to say some people just name the parameter ctx even in slash commands

[karmic oriole]

ok so just how do i the error handeling myself i want to use an if statment to check for manage_messages=True

[vapid parcel]

You are probably thinking about Hybrid commands.

[karmic oriole]

WHAT

[twilit grotto]

being a douche doesn't help him

[vapid parcel]

Dude, understand this real quick, you would have to do a check every single command, but you could just do what I said, and add error handling instead of what you are doing.

[red palm]

yeah ik

[karmic oriole]

i need it for litterally 1 command

[red palm]

sorry

[karmic oriole]

ONE COMMAND

[red palm]

my mind just went fr

[karmic oriole]

thats not what i want to do

[red palm]

oops @vapid parcel alr sent it

[vapid parcel]

@karmic oriole what are you using?

[karmic oriole]

wdym

[vapid parcel]

show me your command?

[karmic oriole]

@commands.cooldown(1, 5, commands.BucketType.user)

using an error handler would be like 2 lines longer and i dont know how to use those and dont care about learning em

Its spamming the await logging_channel.send(embed=embed)

[blissful crane]

you'll need to show more code

[wispy falcon]

what can i add to the code to stop the spam?
because once i sent 'test', it started spamming and not sending it only once

[blissful crane]

add an if statement that checks whether the message author is a bot or the bot and return

ohhhh

Hey, I'm using discord.ffmpegpcmaudio to stream audio in a voice channel. Is there any way to figure out when the audio has stopped playing? Like an event or such?

[pale zenith]

the after parameter of play()

!d discord.VoiceClient.play

Why is this showing the master branch docs?

here are the docs for the pypi release of discord.py (v2.3.2) which don't include the things added in 2.4

[wary jolt]

thanks

[polar hearth]

hello

[slim bloom]

!d discord.VoiceClient.play

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceClient.play

play(source, *, after=None, application='audio', bitrate=128, fec=True, expected_packet_loss=0.15, bandwidth='full', signal_type='auto')```
Plays an [`AudioSource`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.AudioSource).

The finalizer, `after` is called after the source has been exhausted or an error occurred.

If an error happens while the audio player is running, the exception is caught and the audio player is then stopped. If no after callback is passed, any caught exception will be logged using the library logger.

Extra parameters may be passed to the internal opus encoder if a PCM based source is used. Otherwise, they are ignored.

Changed in version 2.0: Instead of writing to `sys.stderr`, the library’s logger is used.

Changed in version 2.4: Added encoder parameters as keyword arguments.

[wary jolt]

thanks
i tried to pass in a coroutine preceded by await, but then it was executed immediately before the audio even started playing.

    try:
        synced = await bot.tree.sync()
        print(f"synced {len(synced)} command(s)")
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

[shrewd vapor]

yes but i can't make a new bot when this one is on Taylor Swift France server

and i do that

NameError: name 'client' is not defined

i also need it to update every once in a while

[mild token]

Change client.guilds to bot.guilds

You defined your client as bot so u need to use bot

[karmic oriole]

Ok

I’m making had to use len() for anyone who sees this and needs the same thing

[finite apex]

hello

i have a problem

https://pt.stackoverflow.com/questions/594868/problemas-com-discord-py <- my problem

😟

[short tinsel]

ctx.author.id

[finite apex]

author?

[short tinsel]

yes

[finite apex]

where?

@bot.command(name:"myid")
async def id_user(ctx, user: discord.Member):
   await ctx.send(user.id)

[short tinsel]

remove user: discord.Member e troca user.id em ctx.send para ctx.author.id

[finite apex]

he was! thank you very much.

this documentation is confusing

[wispy falcon]

How do I delete the bots own message?

[fast osprey]

Same way you delete any message, calling .delete() on it

[wispy falcon]

Can you give an example?
because ctx.message.delete() wouldnt even work on the bots own message

[inner glade]

In a .send or .reply?

[wispy falcon]

send

[inner glade]

parameter delete_after=<int>

ctx.send("Message response", delete_after=10)

[wispy falcon]

thanks

[patent hull]

it's same for both

[inner glade]

I meant it as send/reply

in a respond it would be different, but yeah prefixed commands are the same

[blissful crane]

The on_message is activated whenever a message is sent even if the message is from the bot

[patent hull]

in slash response.send_messagethere is also a delete_after kwarg

[inner glade]

please, I know

Next thing you're going to tell me is there's one in ui.View 🤣

[patent hull]

maybe..

[inner glade]

lol

[patent hull]

like, if i didn't knew dpy internals

[chilly cloud]

yo guys, how do you have different profile pictures for yout bot across different discord servers?

[blissful crane]

You can't

Bots that do this don't just send an http request

[chilly cloud]

some server made a rip off bot, my bad

another question, whats the best option to host your discord bot?

[fast osprey]

entirely depends on what your needs are . discord bots aren't a single monolith that all behave the same way

[chilly cloud]

what are the different needs?

like what services are good for what purposes

[fast osprey]

Depends on what the bot is doing. What resources it requires

[limber jolt]

How do you install PM2?

[chilly cloud]

Im making a bot mainly for currency keeping, it uses sqlite3 as its database

[limber jolt]

Do you know how to add PM2?

[fast osprey]

Do you know the resource usage of your bot? Primarily memory and cpu

[chilly cloud]

whats that?

[chilly cloud]

its not that intensive

[limber jolt]

Look It up and I found how to.

[patent hull]

wasnt that a js module

[chilly cloud]

what does that do

[limber jolt]

run the bot and stuff from the shell and see ur files from anywhere.

[patent hull]

if you know what that does why dont you just search how to install it

[chilly cloud]

does it run while my pc is off?

[limber jolt]

I did I was being stupid.

[patent hull]

some PCs allow this, but if the PC is off all the processes (well.. most of them) are killed

[vapid parcel]

Do embeds really not support discord.Files..?

[limber jolt]

Killed In action 🫡

[patent hull]

They actually can

[vapid parcel]

How..?

[chilly cloud]

I was thinking about hosting it on some server somewhere if its affordable or someth

[patent hull]

f = discord.File("some_file_path", filename="image.png")
e = discord.Embed()
e.set_image(url="attachment://image.png")
await messagable.send(file=f, embed=e)```
Note that the filename in the File constructor and the filename in the URL must match, and must be alphanumeric.

*From the discord.py server*

[vapid parcel]

I am trying to set the file in the set_image but using discord.Files

[limber jolt]

If you put pc Is always on option then u can do that It host on your pc you dont have to pay anything apart from power bills.

But I live with my parents so no problem for me.

[chilly cloud]

my parents dont like my pc being on all day when im ni school :p

[vapid parcel]

Yeah but there is no url to the file I am trying to use, so I can't just set it in the set_image.

So basically the embed can't use it

[chilly cloud]

wait, can the bot run on someone elses pc if I send them a converted exe file?

[patent hull]

It literally shows how the url must be lol

attachment://your_file_name.extension

[patent hull]

erm

if they have the deps yeah

[chilly cloud]

WDYM DEPS?

oops caps

[slim bloom]

How can I use proxies with aiohttp?

[wispy falcon]

Oh so the bot was sending its own message content

Makes sense

[marble rampart]

lets say i have a slash command in a cog (also a sub command) how would i be able to make it a normal command as well

[slate swan]

does anybody have a bot like this

[formal basin]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[formal basin]

Hello, I have an Anti-nuke system but it is spamming once the nuker is banned

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/NYSA

Its spamming the await logging_channel.send(embed=embed)

[fast osprey]

How is someone adding channels "nuking" the server

[timber dragon]

someone with the manage channels permission*

[formal basin]

they spamming the channels\

[fast osprey]

And if someone legitimately needs to make a couple of channels for an event or something and your bot randomly bans them out of nowhere?

[wispy falcon]

lol

[blazing beacon]

the bot deemed them not worthy

yepp its pretty good and concise, got what i wanted to look for (options in slash commands), thanks for sharing

[ashen crystal]

Hi i'm on a adkynet server python and i have this error but everything is import somebody have a idea ?

[fast osprey]

You don't have a discord library installed on this python installation

[ashen crystal]

i have install that the problems

[fast osprey]

How?

[ashen crystal]

in requirement file and with import because the file is on a server

[fast osprey]

Putting things in a requirements file doesn't do anything on its own

Unless something installs from that file, and then you run python from that same installation

[ashen crystal]

Additional Python packages
python-dotenv discord asyncio load_dotenv discord-ext-bot discord.gateway PyNaCl Numpy datetime json
Install additional python packages. Use spaces to separate

i have the same error with that

then i have change for requirement file

it was still working a few days ago without touching anything

[fast osprey]

Is this one of those shitty panels that doesn't actually let you hit the command line?

[ashen crystal]

its a free server because i dont have money i'm young

[stuck hare]

Does any one have a free nuke bot

[fast osprey]

There are student credits you can apply for

A host that doesn't let you access the command line is honestly just going to get in your way, good luck though

[fast osprey]

Want to elaborate on what this means and what you're trying to accomplish?

[slim bloom]

!d discord.Member.timeout

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.timeout

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

Applies a time out to a member until the specified date time or for the given [`datetime.timedelta`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.timedelta).

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

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.edit).

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may violate terms of service, or that may be deemed inappropriate, malicious, or illegal.

Rules

The rules and guidelines that apply to this community can be found on our rules page. We expect all members of the community to have read and understood these.

[young dagger]

What is different between await message.author.edit(timed_out_until=timeout_time) and await timeout(until, /, *, reason=None)

[slate swan]

!rule 1 :)

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

1. Follow the Python Discord Code of Conduct.

[languid jungle]

!ban 1230851876929667143 30D You have to follow our rules if you wish to participate in our server. If you do rejoin the server after your ban is over, make sure you've read our rules carefully.

[unkempt canyon]

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: applied ban to @stuck hare until <t:1719324347:f> (30 days).

[slate swan]

thanks vivek

[slate swan]

not a much difference

most likely that .timeout looks more obvious what it does when you read code after 1 year

but for example

if you were to change user nickname when he is timed out

you could use one line of code (.edit(nick="MUTED | ...", timed_out_until=...)) and not two (.edit(...); .timeout(...))

[young dagger]

So is not that await timeout was implemented later?

[young dagger]

Okay. I see the logic here

[slate swan]

doubt it
