[shadow vigil]

oh I see why, the choices are value of type int while the game type is str

[slate ravine]

what do you mean?

[shadow vigil]

I mean the choices values are int while the game argument is str

so you giving a int instead of a str, change the game typehint to int

and shall all be fixed

[shadow vigil]

huh and accessing name? that is not a thing I believe

[slate ravine]

everything is working now but i get this Command 'host' raised an exception: AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'name'

[shadow vigil]

yes because game is a number and not a Choice object

if you want the game name maybe map them into a dict

[slate ravine]

I'm sort of confused on what you are saying but i will say what i am trying to do with this slash command
I am trying to making it so when someone click on one of those choices and enters it the bot will give a different response for each option

[shadow vigil]

I am unsure either of how to explain this to a newbie.

what you have to do is create a dict object and put every number as a key and the value as the game name,

here an example of using a dict but that's too complex to a newbie

games = {
  1: "Mag Game",
  2: "Lob Game",
  3: "Game Night"
}

game = int(input("enter a game: "))
print("the game you entered is", games.get(game, "Mag Game"))

what a newbie will originally do is:

if game == 1:
  print("the game you entered is Mag Game")
elif game == 2:
  print("the game you entered is Lob Game")
elif game == 3:
  print("the game you entered is Game Night")

exam the first code sample, and learn and understand how dict.get works and how to use dicts

[slate ravine]

I see, but how does that implament to a discord bot that just looks like prints..

[shadow vigil]

I am showing how you must deal with them not implementing them directly to your code as it seems like spoonfeeding, you should take those and figure how to use them

``` in my discord bot. i really dont know what is wrong.

[shadow vigil]

you may want to share some code

[slate ravine]

well okay thank you for your time

[untold orbit]

sorry i just fixed it. just had to uninstall pymongo and reinstall it

[hushed galleon]

seems about right, you get the permissions on the second screen once you've selected a server

those two are your oauth scopes, bot and applications.commands

i cant recall what it looked like in the early days, but afaik every bot invite link shows the same two screens, oauth scopes first, then bot permissions

(if the oauth link doesn't include the bot scope, then you won't see the second screen)

whats actually freaky is if the first screen shows "Join servers for you" 🥴

[lucid kite]

you forgot the pip part of the command

[lucid kite]

can you run py -0 in the terminal

[lucid kite]

cool, so do py -m pip install discord.py

[slate swan]

so instead of pip i have to do py -m pip?

[slate swan]

and btw it worked

[lucid kite]

yes, the reason is that you didn't add python to the path apparently

[lucid kite]

!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.

[slate swan]

uhh

[lucid kite]

did you read the embed?

[slate swan]

can we get on a call and i can screenshare because theres a other mistake

[lucid kite]

no sorry. i don't do calls, open a help thread.

[slate swan]

alright then this is what is happening

oh wait i think ik the problem

[lucid kite]

your token is visible there btw

[slate swan]

its okay

its whatever

i will just reset it and i fixed it btw

thanks for all the help

[solid pecan]

Yo i have a question about cogs

when i write a cog in a different file, for example: mycog.py

How can i import it to the main file so i can use it

[shrewd apex]

u would have to load it as an extension

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.load\_extension

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

Loads an extension.

An extension is a python module that contains commands, cogs, or listeners.

An extension must have a global function, `setup` defined as the entry point on what to do when the extension is loaded. This entry point must have a single argument, the `bot`.

Changed in version 2.0: This method is now a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-coroutine).

[shrewd apex]

basically u with ur bot u would do await bot.load_extension("cogs.mycog")

[solid pecan]

What about await bot.add_cog(“…”)

whats the difference between the 2?

or do i need load extension to be able to use add cog?

[shrewd apex]

that goes inside ur cog

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

adding ur cogs as an extension has an added benefit of being able to use the library methods to unload and reload cogs/extensions

[vapid parcel]

Is there a channel where I can get ideas for my bot?

[vapid parcel]

You don't have to do that tho

You could just auto load the cogs instead of manually loading them

[upbeat otter]

its easier for beginners to understand adding cogs manually

[vapid parcel]

But then they think thats the only way ya know, so its better if you just teach them the auto loading imo

[timber dragon]

Also that's just an example

Also also, you don't "load' a cog

You load the extension which calls a function called setup which is where most people add a cog to the passed bot

[solid pecan]

ty

i have another question.. i noticed people using this:

async def setup_hook():
    for file in os.listdir("cogs"):
        if file.endswith(".py"):
            await bot.load_extension(f"cogs.{file[:-3]}")```

cant we just do: @bot.event async def on_ready(): await bot.load_extension("cogs.cog") print('Cog loaded') to auto load the cog?

[shrewd apex]

thats what he meant by auto loading yeah

it goes over the cogs folder and adds each cog

also try not use on_ready for this use the setup_hook

[solid pecan]

why? whats the difference?

[shrewd apex]

on_ready is called multiple times thoroughout a bots lifetime setup_hook is called only once

[solid pecan]

oh so i will load the extention multiple times if i use onready

[shrewd apex]

yeah

the code would be called multiple times in an unpredictable manner due to resuming gateway connections to discord

[solid pecan]

can this become simpler like: @bot.event async def setup_hook(): await bot.load_extension("cogs.cog")

[shrewd apex]

it would load only 1 particular cog if u have multiple cogs u would need to use a for loop

[solid pecan]

wait

i thought we only use 1 cog and put all of the functions there

[shrewd apex]

u can use multiple cogs

[solid pecan]

is that common practice tho?

[shrewd apex]

yep

usually u group similar commands under a cog

u can have several categories of commands

[solid pecan]

ok thanks

[upbeat otter]

nerd or what 😭

[timber dragon]

More like common misinformation
People should know how it works instead of copypasting some code and thinking it works like magic

[wanton current]

ur like magic

[timber dragon]

<3

[fast osprey]

Also setup_hook isn't an event

[hearty basalt]

@merry cliff one more question

so i've made a tickets command with a button that creates said ticket. it works fine, though the button doesn't work after restarting the button. is there an easy way to keep the button functional even after restart?

[wanton current]

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

[hearty basalt]

ill check this out, thanks!

[brisk plume]

I need a Programmer [discord.py]

[hearty basalt]

if you need a simple-ish bot i could help but i'm not really that advanced yet :p hmu and tell me what features you need

[brisk plume]

i need to create a bot

i have 4 Programmers now so we need to create a games bot

[merry cliff]

Why do u need so many devs for a game bot

[hearty basalt]

ye na im too inexperienced soz

[merry cliff]

That might be too many cooks in the kitchen

!rule paid

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

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

[merry cliff]

That is also a thing which might apply here idk

[hearty basalt]

chatgpt cookin for me rn

chatgpt is half my kitchen

[fast osprey]

chatgpt thinks that 3 isn't a prime number. It's more stupid than a toddler but confident in its stupidity

[hearty basalt]

i love how it sometimes writes code incorrectly, i point it out and folks blame me for it

like cmon man

yet it cooked up rn

[wanton current]

keyword sometimes

[hearty basalt]

hell yeah

[slate ravine]

async def stats(interaction: discord.Interaction, ctx):
    stats_count = ctx.guild.member_count
    em = discord.Embed(description=f'`Current Member Count`: {stats_count}')
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=em)``` 

Error: parameter 'ctx' is missing a type annotation in callback 'stats'

[wanton current]

you dont get ctx in app_commands

only interaction

[slate ravine]

then how would i get the guild member count?

[wanton current]

use interaction.guild instead

[slate ravine]

oh yea

thank you

[wanton current]

np

[shy eagle]

willi

could i have a word with u

in dms

[ripe fossil]

my problem is im trying to make a log tracker(counts the number as i use the command) I can't get it to update the number in my Data.json file

[timber dragon]

does assigiing it to data also update the file?

consider using a db like sqlite

you need to rewrite the whole json for that to work which can and will corrupt the file at some point

[ripe fossil]

is there a way i can make the tracker without having to do all that?

im just confused on how to get it to udpate the number after I use the command, like why doesn't the
log_number = int(data["Log_Number"]) log_number += 1
work?

it sends the message with the Log number, but doesnt update the number to 2

[cloud dawn]

Because data is just the data inside memory. If you want to update it in the database you will need to update it.

[ripe fossil]

what?

i get data is just data in memory , but HOW do i update it

[timber dragon]

do some basic research lol
like https://realpython.com/python-json/

[slate swan]

bruh wht is worng with the server icon

[slate swan]

is there a way i can make a script that automatically vote for a bot in top.gg

[wanton current]

[slate swan]

?

[shrewd apex]

u could yes, will we help u with that? no

[fast osprey]

May want to read their terms of service

[slate swan]

why not?

[shrewd apex]

read their tos

[slate swan]

i mean for educational purposes since i'm tryna learn

[shrewd apex]

then u should pick a better site which allows such automation

[slate swan]

such as?

what matter is method not the site, and then you can try it on your own risk

[shrewd apex]

!tb

!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.

[slate swan]

Maybe wait a bit more than less than 60 seconds

Sharing code would be useful as well

[shrewd apex]

paste ur code and send the complete traceback

[slate swan]

nah fr im tryna learn im not for the memes 😭

[hearty basalt]

mann how tf do slash commands work

intents = discord.Intents.all()
intents.members = True
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or("."), intents=intents)
client = discord.Client(intents=intents)
tree = discord.app_commands.CommandTree(client)



@client.event
async def on_ready():
    await tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=1247794415582318652))
    print('ready')

shi does NOT print 'ready'

[slate swan]

By typing / and choosing the command you want to execute

[hearty basalt]

folks i know how to use a slash command ion kno how to make one

[shrewd apex]

are u doing bot.run ?

[slate swan]

The intent name for message content is message_content, not messages

[hearty basalt]

yh this the actual command

@tree.command(name="name", description="description")
async def slash_command(interaction:discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message("command")
``` but the print('ready') doesn't even work soo

[slate swan]

ok i change my question how did u learn it without someone telling u "tos"

[shrewd apex]

intents.message_content = True

[slate swan]

Line 6, rename messages to message_content if you want your command to work

messages is included in Intents.default()

[shrewd apex]

are u doing bot.run or client.run?

[hearty basalt]

im doin bot.run cs all my other commands use a prefix, do i do both orrr

but i understand what you mean tho

i ain runnin the client

[shrewd apex]

u dont need both bot and client

[rain hedge]

could someone please explain quickly what cogs are?

[shrewd apex]

u can just use it like

@bot.tree.command()

[slate swan]

whats that?

[hearty basalt]

ohhh

[shrewd apex]

bot comes with a tree out of the box

[hearty basalt]

ima try rq

[shrewd apex]

same with @bot.event

[hearty basalt]

i still need

tree = discord.app_commands.CommandTree(bot)
``` right

[slate swan]

is asking wht cogs are is against tos too?

[hearty basalt]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/v2.3.1/ext/commands/cogs.html

(i have no clue)

[slate swan]

@rain hedge
( i have no clue too )

[hearty basalt]

folks yo profile looks cool ash

[rain hedge]

thanks

[slate swan]

profiles*

[slate swan]

np

[hearty basalt]

nah im talmbout yours fr

[slate swan]

oh thx

whats good about it

i never expected this compliment

it might be against tos to compliment my pfp

[hearty basalt]

😭

@shrewd apex

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

tree = discord.app_commands.CommandTree(bot)


@bot.tree.command(name="name", description="description")
async def slash_command(interaction:discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message("command")

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'{bot.user} successfully logged in!')
    await tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=1247794415582318652))
```discord.errors.ClientException: This client already has an associated command tree. 

explain im dumb man terms

[slate swan]

nah fr mentioning tos is crazy 💀
its literallt like halmet u can kill with it but u shouldnt stop teaching ppl how to use halmet bc he might kill someone

[pale zenith]

see how you're using bot.tree? That's the tree that is already associated to your command.

You're creating a second tree, named tree, and a client cannot have two trees.

[hearty basalt]

so i dont need to define tree = discord.app_commands.CommandTree(bot)?

[pale zenith]

Nope

[rain hedge]

no

[hearty basalt]

i can't do await tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=1247794415582318652)) then right

i'm genuinely lost with the tree n slash commands icl i'm too slow 😭

[wanton current]

yert

[hearty basalt]

can yall tell me why this pops up when i don't even have such a command in my code 😭

[pale zenith]

No because your tree is "bot.tree" not "tree"

[cloud dawn]

Using views -> https://fallendeity.github.io/discord.py-masterclass/views/

[cloud dawn]

# after disabling all components we need to edit the message with the new view
# now when editing the message there are two scenarios:
# 1. the view was never interacted with i.e in case of plain timeout here message attribute will come in handy
# 2. the view was interacted with and the interaction was processed and we have the latest interaction stored in the interaction attribute
async def _edit(self, **kwargs: typing.Any) -> None:
    if self.interaction is None and self.message is not None:
        # if the view was never interacted with and the message attribute is not None, edit the message
        await self.message.edit(**kwargs)
    elif self.interaction is not None:
        try:
            # if not already responded to, respond to the interaction
            await self.interaction.response.edit_message(**kwargs)
        except discord.InteractionResponded:
            # if already responded to, edit the response
            await self.interaction.edit_original_response(**kwargs)

Disable all just disables all components in the view, stop, stops the view and confirm is a variable to let the view know it's confirmed, just a var.

This is the _edit function await self._edit(view=self) self gets passed, self is the current class. This just edits the view when it gets changed.

There are enough comments to get you started and I recommend running the code yourself and change things and look into it.

Yes and no, you want to disable the view before stopping because otherwise the user could still click the buttons but the app won't respond. And you want to stop the view because otherwise it would use too much resources at some point.

In this specific case the confirm is true, so buttons get disabled, edit pushes the disabled to Discord and then the view gets stopped. That gets returned to the command function and then you could do further logic.

Ah a paginator, then you'd edit the View to show the new text. I might've an example..

Our old and trusty @hushed galleon has made a good View for this @slate swan -> https://github.com/thegamecracks/thegamebot/blob/v2/bot/utils/paging.py

Anyone know why the logging on this wont work, ive tried adding & removing logging statements, ive also tried another bot with this code and it didnt work so ik its the code, although i use this exact code with different channel ids on a different bot, and ik its not a perm problem since bot has admin + all intents

[chilly cloud]

is there any way I can write this code to run faster?

I feel like having 3 for loops within a for loop might run slowly

[fast osprey]

It's generally never a good idea to agonize over "might"

Run the thing and profile it if you're worried

[slate swan]

Cant you put that logic into SQL query?

[versed basalt]

Anyone here have experience with integrating their bot with a Plex Server?

[fast osprey]

Going from 3 comprehensions to 1 loop would be faster but it's still O(n). It won't be noticeable

[untold orbit]

@client.event

``` help pls

[fast osprey]

You should not be using on_connect for one time setup things. It runs several times and effectively randomly

Also if you don't want someone creating channels, why do they have the permission to do that in the first place?

[quick gust]

I can subclass Context and use CustomContext in prefix commands, is there anything similar I can do for interactions? bcs custom context requires get_context for prefix commands but idk if there's something similar for interactions

[fast osprey]

There's no library support for custom Interactions, because Interactions are a type published by discord with a defined structure

[untold orbit]

anti-nuke

[fast osprey]

You could just not let them have those perms

[untold orbit]

some ppl aint that smart 🤷

[quick gust]

Thank you

[fast osprey]

If they're too stupid for that, what makes you think they're smart enough to not give someone rank to kick your bot first?

[untold orbit]

why you put the bot above those roles. trust everything in my bot is very easy to setup.

[fast osprey]

But they're stupid

You just said that you don't trust your own users

[untold orbit]

you get a message that says it only works if it is above the member.

trust i know my setup works. i just need help with the function itself.

[chilly cloud]

yo, I wanna add a buy item feature, but since each server has a unique shop, is there a way to create a drop down menu of items in a shop from accessing the database?

[fast osprey]

Idk fam, you could just have people use the systems that already exist and are far more reliable than your bot

Every couple of days I hear someone crying about an anti-nuke bot that got compromised or didn't work because they're inherently flawed

[untold orbit]

okay so are you gonna help or not, i didnt ask for your opinion?

[fast osprey]

lol my help is to use the systems that actually work instead of this hacky stuff, your call if you don't want that help

[untold orbit]

so if you weren't gonna help with wt i sent then why say anything to me ?

[fast osprey]

That is the help. You just don't want it

[untold orbit]

and i wanted to make my own anti-nuke is there a problem with that?

[fast osprey]

There is, because as said before it is flawed

[untold orbit]

and exactly why i asked for help? r u not using your brain?

[fast osprey]

Flawed at its concept

Not execution

[untold orbit]

okay the concept is for me to deal with? not you?

[fast osprey]

I'm telling you how to actually prevent things from happening in a guild. If you don't accept that, your goal isn't actually to keep people safe but to double down on this naive implementation

[untold orbit]

okay and how does that help me with my code at all whatsoever?

[fast osprey]

By helping with the core goal, which is to prevent these things from happening

[untold orbit]

but is that wt i asked for?

[fast osprey]

Are you familiar with the XY problem?

[untold orbit]

is that wt i asked for tho ?

[fast osprey]

Are you familiar with the XY problem?

[untold orbit]

completely dodged my question then wanted me to answer yours?

[fast osprey]

It is related to your question

Good help seeks to understand what your core goal is and helps you with that, rather than blindly helping with the (flawed) proposed solution you already have

If your goal is not to prevent these things from happening, then my help doesn't apply

[fast osprey]

And yeah, you can populate a select however you want before you send it, noting that there's a maximum of 25 options per select

[chilly cloud]

how do I do that?

[fast osprey]

You can subclass Select then pass the options you want into the super constructor

Also implement callback

[chilly cloud]

Im still a lil confused, is there any documentation or examples I can see?

[fast osprey]

Are you familiar with how to subclass?

[chilly cloud]

is that class inheriting from another class?

[fast osprey]

Yes exactly

[chilly cloud]

what does super constructor and callback mean

[fast osprey]

You can make your own class inheriting from Select. You will want to two things in it:

• override __init__. In this you will call the super().__init__(). You can pass whatever you want like you would to a normal select, including options=

• override callback(self, interaction). This does whatever you want when the select gets interacted with

[chilly cloud]

how do you inherit from select?

[fast osprey]

How do you inherit from any class?

[chilly cloud]

oh righ

lemme try it

[chilly cloud]

wait, which class do I inherit from?

[fast osprey]

discord.ui.Select

[chilly cloud]

does ui select affect slash commands?

I thought it was for like buttons or something

[fast osprey]

Those are dropdowns

Or do you mean option parameters on a command?

[chilly cloud]

yea yea those

I think thats why I was a lil confused lol

[fast osprey]

!d discord.app_commands.autocomplete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.autocomplete

@discord.app_commands.autocomplete(**parameters)```
Associates the given parameters with the given autocomplete callback.

Autocomplete is only supported on types that have [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str), [`int`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int), or [`float`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float) values.

[`Checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.check) are supported, however they must be attached to the autocomplete callback in order to work. Checks attached to the command are ignored when invoking the autocomplete callback.

For more information, see the [`Command.autocomplete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.Command.autocomplete) documentation.

Warning

The choices returned from this coroutine are suggestions. The user may ignore them and input their own value...

Examples on there

My b

[chilly cloud]

I was reading the docs and it said that it was a list of suggestions instead of something compulsory, should I just return an error message or something if they type something that isnt in the database?

[fast osprey]

Yeah your options are to either do validation in a command, or to present them with a Select

[chilly cloud]

alright

[wet talon]

i need help with buttons

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/5VLQ

the bot does not respond to buttons

[fast osprey]

You shouldn't be using interaction.message.edit, you can just respond with interaction.response.edit_message

[wet talon]

I want the bot to edit the message

[fast osprey]

and that's what interaction.response.edit_message does

[wet talon]

its still not working @fast osprey

[fast osprey]

code? error?

[wet talon]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/4APA

I didn't get any error

the bot still doesnt edit message

@fast osprey any idea?

[fast osprey]

You have if statements. Have you done any debugging to see how those are behaving?

[wet talon]

nope

so? @fast osprey

[scarlet tiger]

you use discord.py?

[wet talon]

I asked many people for help but no one knows the answer

[wet talon]

ye

[wanton current]

then do it?

[fast osprey]

yeah do some debugging

[wanton current]

if the if statement doesn't pass, nothing happens in the callback

[wet talon]

I'm sorry but I'm not very good at programming and I don't even know what you're talking about

[fast osprey]

You can just put print statements in your code to see what's happening

[wanton current]

# If this evaluates to true, run code
if interaction.user.id == self.user_id:
    embed = interaction.message.embeds[0]
    embed.description = embed.description.replace("None", interaction.user.mention)
    await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed)
    await interaction.response.defer()

# Else, do nothing

[wet talon]

I still don't understand what you're talking about

[scarlet tiger]

Do you want to edit the original message by pressing the buttons?

[fast osprey]

You don't understand print statements?

[wet talon]

yes

I want the user who clicks the "Send" button was added to an earlier message

I want the bot to edit it

[scarlet tiger]

try using this method. (I don't use discord.py but this is what it says in the documentation)

[fast osprey]

You don't want that method

[wet talon]

when someone clicks sending
bot will edit sending litecoin and instead of none his nickname will appear

[wet talon]

so what should I do

[fast osprey]

You should debug to see what your callbacks are doing

[wet talon]

python debugging?

[fast osprey]

or just print statements

[wet talon]

how to do print statements

[quick gust]

you print()

[wet talon]

Can you add these print statements to code

[wet talon]

and what will it give me?

[quick gust]

no I don't spoonfeed

[quick gust]

adding print statements inside your if conditions will help u see what condition is being reached and what isnt

[wet talon]

but how should I add it and where?

[fast osprey]

Wherever in your code you want to see what's happening

[quick gust]

by using the combination of p r i n t ( ) keys on ur keyboard

[wet talon]

I added this and it didn't help me

[scarlet tiger]

Have you already used the methods I have taught you?

[wet talon]

they told me not to use them

[scarlet tiger]

I use them to edit my messages and they work, try it.

[wet talon]

still not working

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/VTOQ
guys if u can pls repair it

[scarlet tiger]

What specifically does it fail?

[storm saffron]

Does anyone know what the kwargs for discord.utils.get() specifically for guild.text_channels?

does it use the attributes that discord.TextChannel uses?

[fast osprey]

You haven't printed anything in your callbacks. You have no idea what's going on in there

[wanton current]

yes

[vapid parcel]

Yo

How do people make select menus/drop down menus, show options you have already selected when you load the menu again

Yes its from a db, but how to do it in dpy.

I know its like a very stupid question and prolly simple, just wanna know how to do it tho lol.

[hushed galleon]

well, the idea would be to get the data that you need, turn that data into options, and add them to the select

[vapid parcel]

But it shows selected already..?

[hushed galleon]

oh you mean how that appears? presumably default=True on one of the options

[vapid parcel]

I guess..?

[hushed galleon]

huh, i didnt know default worked for multiple options, guess that makes sense

[vapid parcel]

So its just default?

[hushed galleon]

yeah, looks like it

oh wait a minute, i think i can replace my /inbox staff add|list|remove commands with a MentionableSelect...

o, i need dpy latest to get default_values...

[hushed galleon]

first time using mentionable select but it turned out well

[pale zenith]

idk man it's like 3am for them why would they reply lmao

[craggy notch]

OK, are the videos necessary here?

[pale zenith]

You'll probably get banned for spam before they wake up

Yes

[vapid parcel]

Im just going along with it cuz I think its funny lol

Just a lil fun, no harm done tbh

[pale zenith]

Plus they have a funny voice

[red palm]

plz dont ban me

[vapid parcel]

Vencord banned me within like 3 seconds cuz I was asking for help one time

That was a good day

[craggy notch]

As a reminder, we need to remain on topic. Keep in mind whether your videos are disruptive or not.

If you would like a place to be silly (although please don't meme dump) we have the OT channels.

Alright, im sorry blud. Ill leave chat now. Love you!

[red palm]

Thanks Daiyailaly

[craggy notch]

I'm actually struggling to play the videos so there's not much I can do anyway.

[red palm]

@craggy notch needs to be promoted

[vapid parcel]

They aren't bad lol

They are just him talking in a nerd voice tbh

[craggy notch]

I downloaded one, and yeah, it's fine.

[vapid parcel]

Who are you?

I don't know you blud, don't think I know you blud.

[craggy notch]

It's just off-topic here. This is a topical channel for people to discuss and get help with developing Discord applications/bots.

[vapid parcel]

Yeah we were just bored, sorry tbh.

[red palm]

sorry!

[vapid parcel]

We truly sorry lol. We were honestly just bored n wanted something to do, we prolly won't do it again, if we do just mute us for like 3 weeks or something lol.

[karmic harness]

I am new and I making a discord bot and I have completed the main.py and I have yet to add the cmd but I don't know how it is done and I went to another website and copied and pasted the code but still it is not working, maybe that code It is not connecting to my bot

[hushed galleon]

!paste your code with any tokens removed and we can look at it

[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.

[hushed galleon]

if your command isnt running, maybe you're missing the message content intent?

[vapid parcel]

It would print in your console ^

[drifting arrow]

What's the command grouping thing called again?

nvm found it. :D

from discord.ext.commands import Cog, Bot
import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord import Interaction
from discord.app_commands import guild_only, command

class TestClass(Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot:Bot, config:dict):
        print("[Cog] TestClass has been initiated")
        self.botBot = bot
        self.config = config
    
    poll = app_commands.Group(name='poll', description='polls for polls and polling')

    @poll.command(name='create', description='Create a poll')
    async def create(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, question:str, option_one:str, option_two:str):
      await interaction.response.send_message("Results go here.", ephemeral=True)

    async def info(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, poll_id:int):
      await interaction.response.send_message("Results go here.", ephemeral=True)
``` found my example file that had it :D

[upbeat otter]

if you want all the commands of a cog to be in the group, use a GroupCog

class UwUAnimeCog(commands.GroupCog, name="group_name")

    @commands.command(...)
...```

[drifting arrow]

Does this basically work the same way?

[upbeat otter]

yes

if u dont send the view how will the buttons show up?

[fast osprey]

As friendly advice, if you're not even familiar with how a try/except works you're going to have a very painful time trying to implement an advanced library like dpy. It'll make a lot more sense if you build up with focused exercises on core concepts rather than trying to build a skyscraper from scratch

this is my hybrid command script but not sure why it wont work

'item_name': (name[2] for name in guild_shop if item_dict['item_id'] == name[1]),
'item_description': (desc[3] for desc in guild_shop if item_dict['item_id'] == desc[1]),
'value': (value[4] for value in guild_shop if item_dict['item_id'] == value[1])
``` these are indeed generator expressions

[chilly cloud]

oh

how do I format them correctly

[hushed galleon]

seems like what you're trying to do is a JOIN on guild_shop(item_id) so thats what you should rewrite your query into

[chilly cloud]

wdym?

[hushed galleon]

instead of fetching their inventory and all shop items in a separate query, fetch their inventory and just the shop items referenced by each inventory entry, something like: sql SELECT i.item_id, i.quantity, i.private, gs.name, gs.description, gs.value FROM inventory i JOIN guild_shop gs ON gs.item_id = i.item_id see also:
https://sqlbolt.com/lesson/select_queries_with_joins
https://sqlite.org/lang_select.html#fromclause

[hushed galleon]

what doesnt work about it? does the slash command not get synced? does the on_message not fire as desired? is the text command not recognized?

[solid pecan]

ye the normal command works but the slash doesnt

[hushed galleon]

did you reload [Ctrl+R] your client?

well er, your discord application specifically, not the bot

discord has had a kind of long-standing problem with new slash commands not appearing on clients, so thats my first guess whenever a slash command doesn't seem to show up

[fast osprey]

"Doesn't work" isn't descriptive of what's actually happening

[solid pecan]

oh ok ill try that

[solid pecan]

I can't see the slash command

[fast osprey]

Your call to sync will also tell you if you synced that command

[upbeat otter]

if the issue persists, try reading https://gist.github.com/Samarthh2601/b6f57065f394b54f43666037ade38d32#slash-commands-not-showing-up

[solid pecan]

what is CommandTree.sync()

what does it do?

[wanton current]

sync the app commands

[upbeat otter]

read the upper sections of the gist. you'll find the code example and the explanation below it

Better if someone could link Asher's gist explaining commandtree

[solid pecan]

i tried to sync like this: synced = await bot.tree.sync()

and the slash command appears now

im not sure if its the sync that fixed it or it was just discord being slow..

[upbeat otter]

Well, you always need to sync for the slashes to appear

[flat pier]

Sync when you...

"5.242 / 5 GB (105%)"

How we are using so much, is there a way to see whats using this or what..? I am really confused on how we are using so much just for a discord bot..?

It was literally always <%1 but yesterday it started to go up, and its the only thing GOING up. And I have NO clue why.
I am just trying to see what Table could be doing this or what could be causing this stuff, it has never done this before tho.

I am only asking here because I know others use supabase, so if someone could help then please do lol

[flat pier]

5gb is not a lot

[vapid parcel]

For just a discord bot..? Id beg a differ 😭

[wanton current]

bandwidth or storage?

[flat pier]

egress is bandwidth iirc

[vapid parcel]

^^

[wanton current]

is this a free plan or smth

[hushed galleon]

does anything else read your database?

[wanton current]

bc that's nothing

i get 20 TB/mo

[pale zenith]

damn 5gb is shit

[vapid parcel]

Ofc, but out of all bots, this is the only one having this issue 😭

The rest are using less than 1% is why I am hella confused

Well we have decided to ditch supabase and just host our own. This will just be easier 😁

[flat pier]

idk but looking at the supabase website it looks cringe

just get a good vps and throw all ur bots on that

[vapid parcel]

So just ignore my message ig

[vapid parcel]

We use digital ocean XD

[flat pier]

gross but ig it works

[vapid parcel]

so we are gonna host our own postgres instead of using supabase

[vapid parcel]

Its really good tho 😭

don't hate on digital ocean the website that looks like it was made in 2000s 😭

[flat pier]

i dont care about what the website looks like

[pale zenith]

it's just overpriced as fuck

What product are you currently using?

[upbeat otter]

If anything it'd be https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/965291480992321536

Wdym?

[pale zenith]

Like are you using droplets? which one, and what specs? (Just curious)

[vapid parcel]

Droplets

[vapid parcel]

Idk the specs, id have to check lol

Actually, I can't check, this droplet isn't mine, its my friends so I can't check XD

We have like multiple droplets, but this one I do not control sadly

[flat pier]

the cheapest plan is shit

so i can't imagine what the rest are compared to competitors

(roleRole is defined in globals.py)
can i somehow catch the CheckFailure error once a user tries the command without the roles or perms needed

or do i need to just try & except it on every command

[vapid parcel]

forgot

[hearty basalt]

cs im tryna have it send a message like "You don't have the perms to use this command" or sumn

[vapid parcel]

Oh wait I didn't even read everything, but yes, you can catch the CheckFailure, you can use errorhandling

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CheckFailure):
        await ctx.send('You do not have the correct role or permissions to run this command.')

[quasi bough]

could use an or statement here

[vapid parcel]

Was keeping how they had it lol

[quasi bough]

i see, apologies

[vapid parcel]

nah you good

[hearty basalt]

so i just have this and it applies to all commands, right?

[vapid parcel]

Thats how error handling works yes.

[hearty basalt]

ty! <3

[fast osprey]

You should not be using channel names to store shifting data. This is API abuse and discord have specifically said it is not allowed

[hearty basalt]

oh shi mb folks, ty for letting me know

[fast osprey]

Your code looks for one specific channel in one specific guild and updates that one, regardless of which guild you're getting updated counts for though

[hearty basalt]

yh ik 😭

ima scrap it

[slate ravine]

?

[vapid parcel]

Huh...?

[slate ravine]

anyone know why i'm getting this

[hushed galleon]

supposedly that means your client UI has an outdated version of the command, so perhaps Ctrl+R reloading your client would fix it?

[slate ravine]

nope

[upbeat otter]

try loading your discord in the browser

[pine saddle]

Why does my ping command not work?

    if "hello" in message.content:
        print(f'Message received: {message.content}')

        for x in range(10):
                await message.channel.send("hello"),

@bot.command
async def ping(ctx):
    print('[debug] Ping command received')
    await ctx.send("pong")

Why does my ping command not work?
Im using the exact explanation from the docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/v2.3.2/ext/commands/commands.html#

I have the correct intents turned on in the developer portal (all of them).

The @bot.event on_message etc. all work fine.

But the bot.command doesn't do anything when i post !ping in the discord server. Also no debug print.

[slate ravine]

its bot.command() not bot.command

[pine saddle]

Doesn't make a difference.

[wanton current]

where are you starting the bot?

[pine saddle]

In the folder.. where my application is.
Everything else works.

[wanton current]

then it's probably this https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html#why-does-on-message-make-my-commands-stop-working

[pine saddle]

Yep thats it. Thanks lol

[wanton current]

nw

[vapid parcel]

Whats an alternative to Flask, that is async

[wanton current]

quart

or fastapi

[vapid parcel]

Now the downside of this is, I can't run these in a thread correct?

[wanton current]

Are you trying to run them alongside your bot?

[vapid parcel]

Yes

API for a dashboard.

[shrewd apex]

just spin up a plain aiohttp webserver alongside

[shrewd apex]

u can

[wanton current]

yeah, you can use aiohttp.web for that

which is installed with discord.py, etc.

[vapid parcel]

Yes lol

[vapid parcel]

But does aiohttp.web support css n stuff like that?

[wanton current]

why would you need that

[vapid parcel]

Gotta also have it as a docs page for web developers

thats why I have flask

shouldve mentioned that 😭

[wanton current]

i mean, it's a webserver, just like flask

[vapid parcel]

Its an API while being a docs page for the web developers, so they understand how it works in the bot and how to make it work in the website side

[shrewd apex]

u could just use bot.loop.create_task(run_function_here)

if u dont want a seperate bot instance and be monolithic

[shrewd apex]

fastapi has swagger

[vapid parcel]

tf is swagger 😭

[shrewd apex]

and openapi docs too iirc

[vapid parcel]

looked it up

[vapid parcel]

So you would say, best is fastapi for my situation?

[shrewd apex]

sounds like a good solution

.paste

!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.

[rugged shadow]

typically you expose a web server to Discord and it sends interactions to your server as POST requests

the other way is through websockets/gateway which idk much about

[blazing beacon]

how do i check the channeltype of the message? i saw something like Message.channel.type but i dont know what it should return

!d discord.Message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message

class discord.Message```
Represents a message from Discord.

x == y Checks if two messages are equal.

x != y Checks if two messages are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the message’s hash.

[sick birch]

!d discord.Message.type

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.type

The type of message. In most cases this should not be checked, but it is helpful in cases where it might be a system message for system_content.

[sick birch]

the docs say what type it returns

[marble basalt]

hey, does anyone know how i can use the member object given by the on_member_join function to do things like get the members profile picture?

[blazing beacon]

thank you

[rugged shadow]

typehint it as member: discord.Member to get autocompletions

alternatively, read the docs here

[hearty basalt]

to get a user banned from every server the bot is in, can i loop thru the guilds and ban the user?

[rugged shadow]

yes, but... why??

[hearty basalt]

@bot.command(name='gban')
@commands.check(has_any_role_or_permission)
async def gban(ctx, user: discord.User = None):
    for guild in bot.guilds:
        ctx.guild.ban(user)
``` would something like this even work?

i edited it, like that?

[rugged shadow]

nvm nvm

discord.User with capital U

also await the ban call

!d discord.Guild.ban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.ban

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

Bans a user from the guild.

The user must meet the [`abc.Snowflake`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Snowflake) abc.

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

jsk should be owner only command wdym fix it?

I guess if you spend so much time building systems predicated on people being brain dead stupid, you start applying that to yourself

hi so i was trying fetch badges for a user using public_flags in my discord server for a project of mine but seems like the amount of badges u can get is limited is there any other way.

Not all badges are exposed on the api afaik

Ty pookie

[hearty basalt]

chat how do i restrict a button to a specific role(s)

[drifting arrow]

"chat"

[fast osprey]

Do whatever checks you want in the callback

[drifting arrow]

What you could do is when the person presses the button, you grab the interaction.user and check their roles.

[fast osprey]

May want to check the rules there

[hearty basalt]

yeahh dont offer or request paid services

[wet talon]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/MGXQ

why when the user sends a number, the bot does not send an embed message confirming this number
these are the last lines
the bot does not respond to what the user sends

[sour cloak]

yea i figured i guess the only way is to scrape tho it goes against tos

[sour cloak]

ur code looks fine

[fast osprey]

Are you really trying to shuffle around crypto with a discord bot

[sour cloak]

maybe try debugging

[wet talon]

its auto mm bot

[wet talon]

I did it but there are no errors or anything so I don't know what's wrong

[sour cloak]

there are multiple auto mm bot tho i think its for TG

[wet talon]

so any ideas why it doesn't work?

[fast osprey]

"Auto mm" sure is a bunch of words

[sour cloak]

check ur intents/perms tho that could be the only issue ur code overall looks fine

[sour cloak]

ive coded loggers

lol

[wet talon]

the bot has all the permissions, the same user

I also think the code is good, but there must be something wrong

[sour cloak]

https://pastebin.com/c24dJcr7 take a look lmk

[sour cloak]

take a look at RoleSelection/ConfirmationView

[wet talon]

unfortunately it doesn't work, if you want I can show you on the server what exactly the problem is

he send it

but he didn't read the value I wrote

[fast osprey]

You may wish to review the monetization terms you have agreed to. Particularly:

15. Facilitation of financial asset transfers or securities ownership.

https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/10575066024983-Monetization-Policy#summary

[wet talon]

ok, but it probably has nothing to do with the code because it only asks about the value

[fast osprey]

But you are asking for help with a bot that violates terms, aren't you?

Even if it's not this specific piece that is violating the terms

[wet talon]

after all, he doesn't break the rules, he's supposed to be an auto middleman bot

[fast osprey]

Are you facilitating the transfer of financial assets?

Cryptocurrency are financial assets

[solid pecan]

thats against the tos of discord im pretty sure?

are you trying to make something similar to halal mm? @wet talon

just noticed that youre in the stock server lol

[wet talon]

yes

[solid pecan]

well be careful because that server gets banned every week or so

[wet talon]

okay

but can someone help me or not?

[solid pecan]

its pretty complicated.. so be patient until somebody with experience can help u

why when the user sends a number, the bot does not send an embed message confirming this number
these are the last lines
the bot does not respond to what the user sends

[fast osprey]

Can you answer this? It's a pretty relevant yes/no question

[hearty basalt]

if i have a url= argument in my button, it automatically sets the style of the button to url. Is there any way to force it a different style? Even if i specify a style like primary or success it uses url

[wanton current]

url buttons can only be one style

[hearty basalt]

understood

[hearty basalt]

if i have multiple buttons with long text, can i do something along the lines of how you can do \n to start from a new line

instead of the buttons going to the right beyond the text & embed

[merry cliff]

You can set the button row for each button

Each message has a limit of 5 rows with 5 buttons each

!d discord.ui.Button

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button

class discord.ui.Button(*, style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2>, label=None, disabled=False, custom_id=None, url=None, emoji=None, row=None, sku_id=None)```
Represents a UI button.

New in version 2.0.

You can set it with the row parameter

could you help me with slash commands if you ever have time? i made a whole seperate bot to test & it just doesn't work. i was following this tut:

[wanton current]

well, you're syncing the tree to the guild, but the command globally

[slate swan]

its impossible to make a userinfo with a slash command, pls explain why?

[slate swan]

just replace that with await bot.tree.sync() 🗿

why?

wdym userinfo

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction.user

The user or member that sent the interaction.

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):

im having trouble because i tried to code this which i found somewhere, it works and apparently my bot IS synced to it as well but it doesnt show up in apps

async def show_join_date(interaction: discord.Interaction, member: discord.Member):
    await interaction.response.send_message(f"{member} joined at {discord.utils.format_dt(member.joined_at)}")```

when I sync automatically from on_ready def it also counts this as synced but it doesnt show on apps, yet it still doesnt show any errors. it should be working but its not.

i even made a manual sync function and it still said the same thing yet it doesnt show in apps. why?

[shrewd apex]

did u try reloading ur discord client (just hit ctrl + r)

[lavish haven]

...

hey asher am i stupid or am i

[shrewd apex]

if the command shows up in the synced command lists when u sync it from ur code for that particular bot then that means discord has received that data so in most cases its ur client lagging behind

[lavish haven]

oh i did get an error

@fast osprey sorry the forum was closed yes I want to send another message do i need use interaction.followup("")

But I saw the type of .followup is webhook i don't really know what that is

[fast osprey]

interaction.followup.send

!d discord.Webhook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Webhook

class discord.Webhook```
Represents an asynchronous Discord webhook.

Webhooks are a form to send messages to channels in Discord without a bot user or authentication.

There are two main ways to use Webhooks. The first is through the ones received by the library such as [`Guild.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.webhooks), [`TextChannel.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel.webhooks), [`VoiceChannel.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel.webhooks) and [`ForumChannel.webhooks()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.ForumChannel.webhooks). The ones received by the library will automatically be bound using the library’s internal HTTP session.

The second form involves creating a webhook object manually using the [`from_url()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Webhook.from_url) or [`partial()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Webhook.partial) classmethods.

For example, creating a webhook from a URL and using aiohttp:

what is variables

bruh, are u kiding mr

[wanton current]

well, the error is pretty obvious

[simple prawn]

...

[wanton current]

?

[fast osprey]

You probably don't want a singular context shared globally across your app

[mighty terrace]

what do you think wich functions should an automod bot have? Wich would he important if you would use it?

[scarlet tiger]

What is "variables"?

[simple prawn]

A FILE

[scarlet tiger]

Show it

[simple prawn]

no theres my token

[scarlet tiger]

Just delete it in the message :/

[simple prawn]

but why

[scarlet tiger]

How do you want to receive help if you don't show everything?

Additionally, the token is recommended to have its own file. I recommend a .env file

[simple prawn]

u don't need to see that

[scarlet tiger]

Then check that the variables module has the ctx attribute

If you don't show that module I can't help you.

[simple prawn]

huh

the ctx attribute is in the async def

[scarlet tiger]

.

[wanton current]

what is variables.ctx

[scarlet tiger]

It doesn't want to show the module for some reason

[wanton current]

"it"

[simple prawn]

from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="+", help_command=None)

@scarlet tiger

[fast osprey]

self_bot=True

[simple prawn]

nooo

[scarlet tiger]

I only see the Bot object instance. Nothing related to "ctx"

[simple prawn]

bc it's not in this file...

[scarlet tiger]

.

Bruh

[simple prawn]

@bot.command()
async def var(ctx, * var: str):

THERE IS CTX

lmao ig

[scarlet tiger]

import variables # file
@bot.command()
async def var(ctx, * var: str):
    await ctx.send(variables.ctx) #get var from file

The problem is here "variables.ctx"

[fast osprey]

[simple prawn]

what did u change ?

[simple prawn]

what???

[fast osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/lil-jon-wtf-what-surprised-rapper-gif-12536313

[scarlet tiger]

I repeat. The error is in the line await ctx.send(variables.ctx). The variables module does not have that attribute.

[simple prawn]

so what can i do to make it works?

[scarlet tiger]

Show me the variables module

[simple prawn]

it's at the top of my code

[scarlet tiger]

the content of the module. Do you know Python?

🤔

[simple prawn]

"the content of the module"

💀💀💀💀

the file?

[scarlet tiger]

🤡 yes

[simple prawn]

alr showed you.

[simple prawn]

@scarlet tiger

[scarlet tiger]

.

[simple prawn]

BRO

u don't know bot.

[scarlet tiger]

You are trying to use something from the variables module which is "ctx" but in the code you gave me that does not exist.

[simple prawn]

noo, i see wym

like +var <var name>

[simple prawn]

then it returns the var value

[scarlet tiger]

Well it doesn't have it. Check that it has the ctx attribute. It's basic Python

[simple prawn]

?

[hearty basalt]

this might be one of the funniest back & forths i've seen

[scarlet tiger]

I give up

🥲

[simple prawn]

...

i give up too

[hearty basalt]

whats the original issue again lmao

[inner abyss]

hi

[scarlet tiger]

You are trying to access ctx of the variables module but in the code you gave me that does not exist.

[inner abyss]

@scarlet tiger

[simple prawn]

ctx.content*

[scarlet tiger]

?

[simple prawn]

like +var token

{token of the bot}

[inner abyss]

can you recommend me a code editor app to write code from my phone?

[hearty basalt]

never even touched the variables module i cant say nun

[scarlet tiger]

Sorry, I don't know a code editor on mobile :(

[inner abyss]

ah, np

[simple prawn]

@inner abyss

Code studio - code editor

Termux - Setup thing

[hearty basalt]

coding on a phone is a royal pain in the ass

[inner abyss]

but ı have to..

[simple prawn]

yes that's why i like it

[simple prawn]

and who asked?

[hearty basalt]

[inner abyss]

Is it any use to me?

[simple prawn]

??

[inner abyss]

how do I download the module to the app?

[simple prawn]

like pip install ?

@inner abyss

[inner abyss]

doesn't work in some applications

[simple prawn]

pls someeone help me

i made a discord bot and i coded all command in main.py and then the bot started lagging so i made another file called help.py and now when i type help command the console shows no command named help was found

pls some one help me

@desert heart

[shrewd apex]

the bot lagging has no such relation to having all commands in a single file unless ur doing something very resource intensive or very bad code, its most likely network latency

[shrewd apex]

if u made a 2nd file i am assuming u meant as cog? so did u load the cog?

[orchid thistle]

no i mean the ram usage was 1.5gb thats why i added it in another file

see

@shrewd apex

[shrewd apex]

that wouldnt help at all if ram usage is high then ur using a ton of memory somewhere else, also replit machines are pretty underpowered wouldnt really trust their analytics

u need to load help.py as a cog if ur using stuff in another file

!paste paste ur help.py content here

@shrewd apex

[shrewd apex]

the code u wrote wont work

[orchid thistle]

can you give the solution please ?

[shrewd apex]

from discord.ext.commands import Bot, bot # <-- No such thing as "bot"

u need to make a cog

[orchid thistle]

ok

so i should make a file named cog.py or folder named cog ?

[shrewd apex]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/v2.3.1/ext/commands/cogs.html

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

but this wont help with your ram usage or memory problem btw

[slate crest]

Should this interfere with any other commands i have in place? https://paste.pythondiscord.com/V2TA

Asking because these commands work when i dont have the event in the code, but when i put the event in, the event itself works fine, but the other commands cease to exist, it doesnt even recognise the prefix as a prefix (like otherwise youd get a message saying ?me isnt a command)

[inner abyss]

@slate crest

where do you host your bot?

[slate crest]

are you asking regarding the aforementioned snippet or in general? the snippet i dont host anywhere, its just a project that i run on my pc. But on bigger projects i simply used to buy some replit cycles, dont know if its changed now

[ancient stump]

does anyone know a good hoster?

[fast osprey]

Files aren't cogs, these are separate concepts entirely

The examples given don't go into the nuance that you do not need a cog at all to have an extension. In many cases the cog is just unnecessary messy boilerplate

[fast osprey]

You're overriding on_message, which is the thing that runs commands in the first place. Consider using a listener instead of an event if you don't want to override the default behavior and just add to it

[coarse ridge]

could you help me with this script

from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
intents.guilds = True
intents.guild_messages = True
intents.members = True

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

vouches = {}

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'We have logged in as {bot.user}')

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == bot.user:
        return
    await bot.process_commands(message)

@bot.command()
async def vouch(ctx, member: discord.Member = None):
    if member is None:
        await ctx.send("Hey! To use this feature, please mention a user. Example: `.vouch @user`")
        return

    vouch_count = vouches.get(member.id, 0)
    vouch_count += 1
    vouches[member.id] = vouch_count
    await ctx.send(f"Congratulations! {member.mention} has been vouched {vouch_count} time(s).")

@bot.command()
async def vouchcheck(ctx, member: discord.Member = None):
    if member is None:
        await ctx.send("Hey! To use this feature, please mention a user. Example: `.vouchcheck @user`")
        return

    vouch_count = vouches.get(member.id, 0)
    await ctx.send(f"{member.mention} has {vouch_count} vouch(es).")

@vouch.error
async def vouch_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.MemberNotFound):
        try:
            member_id = int(ctx.message.content.split()[1])
            member = bot.get_user(member_id)
            if member:
                await vouch(ctx, member)
            else:
                await ctx.send("Invalid user ID!")
        except ValueError:
            await ctx.send("Member not found or invalid user ID!")

bot.run('its here just not in the message')```

[fast osprey]

It's unclear what you want to do or where the problem is

[coarse ridge]

i want it to say Thank you for vouching @user and then when i do .vouchcheck @user it gives me the number

[fast osprey]

Your error handler is probably eating errors you don't expect

[patent hull]

And also, if you are making the member arg required, why do you pass None as default?

That way you're making that param optional...

And it raises commands.MissingRequiredArgument error if the param is not provided

So you can just catch that 🤷

And as Solstice said, your error handler probably eating errors

[fast osprey]

Bad error handling is worse than no error handling. At minimum, you should be logging every error you get, independently of how you respond to the users for some of them

[coarse ridge]

ohhh

[slate swan]

hi someone can give me a lookup discord account commande just with id bot in python pls ?

[upbeat otter]

what do you mean?

[slate swan]

like that

[simple prawn]

why is my keyboard like this

[upbeat otter]

I have some old code for this ->

@app_commands.command(name="info", description="Get the info of a user")
    async def info(self, inter: discord.Interaction, user: discord.User | discord.Member=None) -> None:
        await inter.response.defer(ephemeral=True, thinking=True)
        user = user or inter.user
        
        embed = Embed(colour=user.top_role.colour).set_thumbnail(user.display_avatar.url)
        
        embed.add_field("Username", user, inline=True).add_field("Display name", user.global_name, inline=True).add_field("Discord ID", user.id).add_field("Status", user.status, inline=True).add_field("Avatar URL", f"[{user.name}'s avatar URL]({user.display_avatar.url})", inline=True)

        embed.add_field("Nickname", user.display_name, inline=True).add_field("Colour", user.top_role.colour, inline=True).add_field("Number of Roles", len(user.roles)-1, inline=True).add_field("Server join", generate_timestamp(user.joined_at), inline=True).add_field("Account created", generate_timestamp(user.created_at), inline=True) if isinstance(user, discord.Member) else ...
        
        embed.add_field("Activity", ", ".join([activity.name for activity in user.activities])) if user.activities else ...

        await inter.edit_original_response(embed=embed)

PLEASE DO NOT COPY PASTE IT

[slate swan]

ok thx

[slate swan]

the commande dont work idk why

[upbeat otter]

I said to not copy paste because it's old

[hearty basalt]

i have something similar:

@bot.command(name='userinfo')
async def userinfo(ctx, user: discord.Member = None):
    if user is None:
        user = ctx.author

    embed = discord.Embed(color=discord.Color.pink())
    embed.add_field(name="Nickname", value=user.mention, inline=False)
    embed.set_author(name=str(user), icon_url=user.avatar.url)
    
    obj = user.created_at # for account age
    obj_date = str(user.created_at)[:10] # for account join date
    current_date = datetime.now()
    
    age_years = current_date.year - obj.year
    age_months = current_date.month - obj.month
    
    if current_date.month < obj.month or (current_date.month == obj.month and current_date.day < obj.day):
        age_years -= 1
        age_months += 12
    if age_months < 0:        
        age_years -= 1
        age_months += 12
        
    age = f"{age_years} years, {age_months} months"
    embed.add_field(name='Account Age', value=f"{age}, ({obj_date})", inline=False)
    # if user doesnt have a custom server pfp use the user pfp
    if user.guild_avatar:
        thumbnail_url = user.guild_avatar.url
    else:
        thumbnail_url = user.avatar.url
    embed.set_thumbnail(url=thumbnail_url)

    join_date = str(user.joined_at)[:10]
    embed.add_field(name="Joined Server", value=join_date)
        
    roles = [role for role in user.roles if role.name != '@everyone']
    roles = sorted(roles, key=lambda x: x.position, reverse=True)
    max_roles = 25
    total_roles = len(roles)
    
    if total_roles > max_roles:
        roles = roles[:max_roles]

    role_mentions = [r.mention for r in roles]
    
    if role_mentions:
        role_string = ''
        for role_mention in role_mentions:
            if len(role_string) + len(role_mention) <= 1024:
                role_string += role_mention + ' '
            else:
                break

        if total_roles > max_roles:
            field_name = f"Roles [{total_roles}] (Showing first {max_roles})"
        else:
            field_name = f"Roles [{total_roles}]"
        embed.add_field(name=field_name, value=role_string.strip(), inline=False)

    embed.set_footer(text='ID: ' + str(user.id) + '  |  Made by vilkaviskietis')
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

this is the output

[hearty basalt]

you can get the user status too?

[coarse ridge]

ty this worked although it let me vouch in every channel so i tried to fix it it responds in every channel except for the vouch one

from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
intents.guilds = True
intents.guild_messages = True
intents.members = True

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

vouches = {}
scam_strikes = {}

# Define the ID of the specified channel
specified_channel_id = 1248953825541361758

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'We have logged in as {bot.user}')

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

    # Check if the message was sent in the specified channel
    if message.channel.id == specified_channel_id:
        await bot.process_commands(message)

@bot.command()
async def vouch(ctx, member: discord.Member):
    vouch_count = vouches.get(member.id, 0)
    vouch_count += 1
    vouches[member.id] = vouch_count
    await ctx.send(f"Thank you for vouching {member.mention}!")

@bot.command()
async def vouchcheck(ctx, member: discord.Member):
    vouch_count = vouches.get(member.id, 0)
    scam_strikes_count = scam_strikes.get(member.id, 0)
    
    profile_embed = discord.Embed(title=f"〔✧〕╰──╮ {member.display_name} Profile╭──╯〔✧〕",
                                  description=f"Heres {member.display_name}'s profile page",
                                  color=discord.Color.blurple())
    profile_embed.add_field(name="Vouches", value=f"{vouch_count} vouch(es)")
    profile_embed.add_field(name="Scam Strikes", value=f"{scam_strikes_count} scam strike(s)")
    await ctx.send(embed=profile_embed)

@vouch.error
@vouchcheck.error
async def command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
        await ctx.send("Please mention a user.")
    else:
        # Log the error for debugging purposes
        print(f"Error occurred: {error}")

bot.run('thingy')```

[fast osprey]

Is that a question? Confused if something isn't working with this

[hearty basalt]

just a general suggestion, store the vouches in like a json or txt file or sum

[coarse ridge]

ok ty would you mind teaching me more on taht

[hearty basalt]

bc once you restart the bot the vouches = {} will reset to an empty dictionary

atleast i think

[fast osprey]

You shouldn't use flat text files to store application data

[coarse ridge]

yea

[fast osprey]

Use a database if you want it to persist

[hearty basalt]

or just a json file
