[long cove]

yo is there a way someone can confirm my saddening suspicions

[slate swan]

Go on

[long cove]

that you can't save pictures locally when they are sent to a channel

[slate swan]

Attachments? I believe you can get them

forgive me guys

[patent lark]

what did you do

wrong server lmao?

[vale pendant]

ig u learn sum every day

[long cove]

yea but it's not letting me save it to my file path

[slate swan]

i forgot to add @ in client.event that we never noticed

[slate swan]

Well, how do you save?

[patent lark]

BOI

[vale pendant]

no?

[long cove]

I tried attachment.save

[vale pendant]

in the code block it was in there

[velvet yarrow]

hey i need help with parsing of discord bot

[patent lark]

well that’s why the event wasn’t gettint called lmao.

[velvet yarrow]

code block

[vale pendant]

ig tho

[slate swan]

it was never there

[velvet yarrow]

rep codeblock

[long cove]

given attachment is a single attachment and not a list of them

[slate swan]

Bot, not bot

[unkempt canyon]

Did you mean ...

repl
return
relative-path

[slate swan]

Go in #bot-commands or something please @velvet yarrow

[velvet yarrow]

how to parse codeblock

print("hello")

i want lang, code from this how can i do that

[celest marlin]

what

[long cove]

is

[patent lark]

syntax highlighting?

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[slate swan]

No, like he said: parsing the content in the code block including the language

[patent lark]

ah i didn’t see that message

yes

[vale pendant]

capital M for member

[patent lark]

no

yes

[slate swan]

In the type hint

[vale pendant]

discord.Member

[patent lark]

i was about to say i was wrong lol

[vale pendant]

lol

[patent lark]

discord.member -> discord.Member, to actually access the member object @slate swan

[celest marlin]

dude what are you asking for?

[velvet yarrow]

[jade jolt]

you're trying to convert dict to a dict from what i can see

components=action_row might work

worth a try

[sweet oxide]

When I do that it gives Command raised an exception: KeyError: 0

[jade jolt]

hm

idk then

[sweet oxide]

So let me give more context

I have two bots with that chunk of code but it only works in one of them

I have application.commands selected in the developer portal

but it only works in one of them

Is there anything else I would need to send buttons?

[jade jolt]

i noticed you're using 2.0

i think

[sweet oxide]

did they change how it works?

[jade jolt]

2.0 is more stable for buttons

dm me

[sweet oxide]

So I uninstalled discord-components and installed 1.14 instead and it worked, it was because of 2.0 afterall. thank you

[slate swan]

just write a regex for it

[jade jolt]

yeah

[velvet yarrow]

yeah i am trying

[keen talon]

how do I filter options by adding -- like name --role etc.

What are you trying to do lol

[distant pagoda]

what do i have to put in my code to make it join a channel and rick roll someone

[crude crow]

am trying to find a discord bot codes

[distant pagoda]

wdym

if you want you can just take my code and change it to your liking

[spring flax]

voice channel ?

[distant pagoda]

yes

[spring flax]

well, let's not spoonfeed

[crude crow]

ok

[distant pagoda]

just wanna help the dude out

[spring flax]

yeah but still

Generally if you spoonfeed, the user won't understand the code
Which is not good

[distant pagoda]

ah

well im learning and still dont have it down

guess we all learn at different paces

but do you know what to put into the code to make it join and rick roll

[worthy wagon]

Nah, I got spoonfed a few times, I just used the code that was given and learned what it did, and that pretty much got me started.

Everyone's different, although now I understand that getting spoonfed is pointless, even though people that need it may consider it beneficial and helpful in some sense.

[stark bobcat]

Same 😂

[valid patio]

how do i add /repissu:(example) and the example shld print in run?

[valid patio]

this is my doubt pls help

[keen oasis]

heya, can someone help, I found this in the docs

async for entry in guild.audit_logs(action=discord.AuditLogAction.ban):

if I were to limit the number of entries, how would I unban all of the users from the entries found

[marsh depot]

Hi, I was wondering if there is any way to make when my bot joins a server to send the following on a specific channel

I have joined [Server name] (Invitation link to server)

I have this code but I can't get it to work properly, could someone help me?

@bot.listen()
async def on_guild_join(guild):
    channel = bot.get_channel(882529879445352498)
    link = guild.link
    embed2 = discord.Embed(title='\n', description='\n', color=0xcd5c5c)
    embed2.add_field(name=f'Bot Agregado Al Servidor {guild}', value=f'[Link Del Servidor]({link})')
    await channel.send(embed=embed2)```

[dapper cobalt]

What is guild.link?

[marsh depot]

I want to get the discord link of my bot is joined, but i dont know how to make it

[dapper cobalt]

Do you mean invite link?

[hoary gust]

Same but for me when I first joined discord and saw bots that was the first time I thought of making one and after that I got confused that there are so many Libs what should I use and then after 4 days I choose python and then tried to understand but wasn't able to, that's why I took help of GitHub and tried to understand the code but one day when I was asking for help about that code to someone in the other server they rejected to help me and that's what raged me towards programming and made me learn dpy and others libs in python 🤣🤣🤣

[marsh depot]

I need that when my bot joins another server it sends me a message to a specific channel with the name of the server that has joined and the link of that server

dont know if i can make this

[maiden fable]

Lmao

[dapper cobalt]

Iterate through the guild's text channels with a for loop and try to create an invite link for each channel. Use try...except to try to create an invitation link, and if it doesn't then continue.
Should be something like this:

@bot.event
async def on_guild_join(guild):
  invite = None
  for channel in guild.text_channels:
    try:
      invite = await channel.create_invite()
      break
    except:
      continue

  if invite == None:
    msg = f"Joined **{guild.name}** with `{guild.member_count}` members and couldn't create an invite link."
  else:
    msg = f"Joined **{guild.name}** with `{guild.member_count}`. Invite: {invite}"

  channel = bot.get_channel(882529879445352498)
  await channel.send(msg)

[marsh depot]

Im going to try it ty

[dapper cobalt]

No problem.

[marsh depot]

Works good, ty

[dapper cobalt]

[maiden fable]

if invite is None

Also, be ready to get rate limited

[dapper cobalt]

== > is.

[maiden fable]

No lol

[dapper cobalt]

It will try, if it could it will break.

So the for loop would stop.

[maiden fable]

!e
a = None
print(a is None)
print(a == None)

[unkempt canyon]

I forgot about that mb.

[keen oasis]

anyone know the ban limit for users who arent in the server?

[maiden fable]

I don't really think there is any ngl

[maiden fable]

Hmm

!d discord.Guild.bans

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.bans

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

Retrieves all the users that are banned from the guild as a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`BanEntry`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.BanEntry "discord.BanEntry").

You must have the [`ban_members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.ban_members "discord.Permissions.ban_members") permission to get this information.

[maiden fable]

Try checking the len

[dapper cobalt]

Try to see the first 10 maybe [0:9]?

len(ctx.guild.bans())

[keen oasis]

yeah I know, around 8.5k bans

[maiden fable]

It is a coro...

[dapper cobalt]

Oh right.

[keen oasis]

anyone know the exact limit? I wanna unban some so I can still ban users who arent in the server

[slate swan]

I still download most of songs locally

[slate swan]

Exact time limit? Is there some cooldown on unban?

[maiden fable]

Lol

[maiden fable]

Limit on number of bans in a server bro...

[keen oasis]

#discord-bots message

[slate swan]

Well it's very normal that I don't have availability of internet a lot of times, so

[slate swan]

Is there some limit?

[keen oasis]

^ @slate swan

[slate swan]

Yes I was seeing that

[keen oasis]

there's a limit on users you can ban who arent in the guild

[slate swan]

I never knew there's something like this

[maiden fable]

A banned user will somehow leave the guild

Even if he was in the guild

[slate swan]

How a "banned user" will leave the guild?

He's "banned"

[maiden fable]

As in he won't be in the guild

[keen oasis]

if a user is banned, and they were in the guild while they were banned, it adds up to the limit

[maiden fable]

Wrong words

[hoary gust]

Banned user is thrown out of thee guild

[slate swan]

^

[keen oasis]

still adds on to limit afaik

[hoary gust]

Wdy want to do

[slate swan]

So you need to wait for some time to let the bucket reset..

[hoary gust]

He wants a cooldown?

Or what?

[slate swan]

Idk what's the exact duration of cooldown, but you can ask at discord.gg/discord-developers

I think they need to know how much time is left for this cooldown to reset

[hoary gust]

Is he trying to make a cooldown for a cmd or what

[dapper cobalt]

They would never give an exact number, so people won't abuse it.

[valid patio]

how can i make a bot do this /say example

?/

[hoary gust]

@valid patio slash cmds?

[valid patio]

no like any even !say is ok

[hoary gust]

Can u plz explain cause me nub at english sry

🤣🤣

[valid patio]

if i type

!say hello

[hoary gust]

Ok

[valid patio]

bot shld say hello

[dapper cobalt]

Pass a text parameter to your function.

Then make the bot send the text.

[hoary gust]

U need a param and compare it with hello

Like

[valid patio]

i am new to discord bots so help

[dapper cobalt]

@bot.command()
async def say(ctx, *, text):
  await ctx.send(text)

[valid patio]

ok

[sage mural]

What is that * for?

[hoary gust]

Well yea that is better @dapper cobalt

[dapper cobalt]

If the text is hello there it won't only read hello.

[valid patio]

what is ctx?

[hoary gust]

Context

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context

class discord.ext.commands.Context(**attrs)```
Represents the context in which a command is being invoked under.

This class contains a lot of meta data to help you understand more about the invocation context. This class is not created manually and is instead passed around to commands as the first parameter.

This class implements the [`Messageable`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable "discord.abc.Messageable") ABC.

[valid patio]

k

[hoary gust]

Oops

[dapper cobalt]

@valid patio don't just copy & paste tho. Try to understand the code. There's still some ways to make a simple say command better.

[hoary gust]

@dapper cobalt well there are more ways but ur that way was the best lol

That directly says what u sent

[dapper cobalt]

Nope. That was very simple and may even cause some issues. He can make it return if the text contains mentions.

[hoary gust]

Yep

[valid patio]

k

[dapper cobalt]

I don't spoonfeed unless it's not the best code, so they would learn.

[hoary gust]

It's something like a chat bot like if we say a chat bot to say @ everyone it mentions the whole server lol

[soft river]

how to check if the channel has certain permissions on discordpy?

[hoary gust]

That's what happened with my bot too

[dapper cobalt]

What do you mean?

[soft river]

Want to check channel text permissions on discordpy

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.TextChannel.permissions_for if you want to check permissions of a certain member in the channel.

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.permissions\_for

permissions_for(member)```
Handles permission resolution for the current [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member").

This function takes into consideration the following cases...

[soft river]

What about permissions like sending messages?

[dapper cobalt]

It shows all permissions.

[hoary gust]

@dapper cobalt what's the event you hate the most?

[dapper cobalt]

I don't know tbh lol. All of them are useful.

[hoary gust]

All are useful but I hate 1 of them

[dapper cobalt]

It returns a discord.Permissions object @soft river

!d discord.Permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Permissions

class discord.Permissions(permissions=0, **kwargs)```
Wraps up the Discord permission value.

The properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools. This allows you to edit permissions.

Changed in version 1.3: You can now use keyword arguments to initialize [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions") similar to [`update()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.update "discord.Permissions.update").

[lament mesa]

* makes every parameter after that a key word only

[valid patio]

how can i make a bot which can mute people

?

[valid patio]

canu tell a api refrence sheet for discord bots ?

[lament mesa]

sheet?

or docs?

https://discord.com/developers/docs/intro

[valid patio]

how can i make a bot which can mute people
?

if so can u tell the syntax

[dapper cobalt]

Make it add the mute role to the targeted member.

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

you need to enable intents in the developer page of discord

it actually tells you what you should do

@rough ledge

[slate swan]

oh nvm

[sage mural]

[slate swan]

Go to developer your bot application then enable intents there

ty

[maiden fable]

Yea

[rough ledge]

Oh you used ',' for i in ctx.args in join()
Change to i for i in ctx.args

[wary ravine]

not sure that'll work

[marsh depot]

Hello I had a question,
Is there a way that my bot can get the emoji.url of any emoji without having to be inside the server where said emoji is located?
Or is impossible?

My Code

@bot.command() # Ver Emoji
async def emoji(ctx, emoji: discord.Emoji = None):
    if emoji is None:
        await ctx.reply("> ⛔️ No se pudo encontrar el emoji proporcionado o se le olvidó de proporcionar uno.")
    else:
        await ctx.reply(emoji.url, mention_author=False)

[wary ravine]

, is the character used to separate each argumenht

no my bad

[rough ledge]

Syntax is separator.join(i for i in iterable)
Or just separator.join(iterable)

ctx.args is your iterable
@wary ravine

[wary ravine]

        embed.add_field(name = "Arguments", value = f"``{','.join(i for i in ctx.args)}``", inline = False)

    embed.add_field(name = "Arguments", value = f"``{','.join(i for i in ctx.args)}``", inline = False)
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, roblox found

roblox is the name of my cog

[rough ledge]

Aah
Try str(i) for i .....

[wary ravine]

<cogs.FOWcogs.roblox object at 0x7581ac30>,<discord.ext.commands.context.Context object at 0x736a8210>,1

[rough ledge]

Yeah, seems like self and ctx also come in ctx.args
You can use slicing syntax on ctx.args inside join()

[wary ravine]

surely that's overcomplicating it

[rough ledge]

I dont see another option

[lament mesa]

ctx.args[:2] will work

[rough ledge]

[2:]

[lament mesa]

yes my bad

[wary ravine]

its still possible yes

we gave you an answer earlier on

bot hasnt got perms

ok but does it have perms

clearly not since its returned a missing permissions error

do you have permissions

what is the bot trying to do

yeah

cant

thats like if my highest role was admin and i tried to remove it

[novel rampart]

what is the error

[wary ravine]

send_message isn't a thing

use ctx.send or channel.send depending on what you're trying to send to

[novel rampart]

i want to dm that user

[wary ravine]

define channel as the user's dm_channel

then do channel.send

[maiden fable]

no

member.send() also works

[wary ravine]

o h

do that then

[novel rampart]

mm

[slate swan]

is there anyways to get a specific member's pfp

no workking

Sorry to bother but I have a question.

Right now I have in my bot music commands that I have downloaded and inserted in the source code of the bot, so that it plays those specific songs, but when one of those songs is finished it does not go to the next inserted song. I'm testing but I can get it to work properly, can someone help me?

[lament mesa]

guild.me.roles will return the bots roles

[slate swan]

i dont get it

why do i get an error

[spring flax]

because

[slate swan]

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord.py'

but i have installed

[river kindle]

I'm doing an invite system in discord py but I don't understand why it doesn't work even though I gave the command

here the code:

@ commands.command (pass_context = True) async def invites (ctx, time_in_seconds, uses): invitelink = await discord.abc.GuildChannel.create_invite (ctx.message.channel, max_uses = uses, max_age = time_in_seconds) await ctx.send (invitelink)

[spring flax]

pip install discord.py ?

[slate swan]

yea

[spring flax]

do pip show discord.py

[slate swan]

@spring flax

[river kindle]

[slate swan]

[river kindle]

maybe?

[spring flax]

@slate swan what did you import

[river kindle]

one momente let me try

moment*

[lament mesa]

its import discord not import discord.py

[slate swan]

OOOOH

[river kindle]

[slate swan]

hmm

im trying to get my pfp's link to print it out in the terminal

Equivalent to [`User.avatar_url`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.User.avatar_url "discord.User.avatar_url")

[slate swan]

hmm

[sage mural]

so just do console.log(avatar_url)

[slate swan]

i tried lol

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'avatar_url'

[spring flax]

this is not js lol

[sage mural]

still works

[slate swan]

lol

[spring flax]

huh

[dapper cobalt]

It will still work if you do:

class console():
  
  def log(value):
    print(value)

console.log("Hello world!")

[slate swan]

how to check whether the message.author have a specific role

[sage mural]

ignore me

[slate swan]

ok

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Member.roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.roles

roles```
A [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") that the member belongs to. Note that the first element of this list is always the default [‘@everyone](mailto:'%40everyone)’ role.

These roles are sorted by their position in the role hierarchy.

[plucky shoal]

That won't work, you forgot the self parameter before the value in the log function parameters

[dapper cobalt]

Oh right, my bad.

[slate swan]

can you give me a example i tried this

guild = client.get_guild(878488858277339176)
        for role in guild.roles:
            if role.id == 882506067387514890:   
                return

[sage mural]

what is wrong with it?

[slate swan]

  File "C:\Users\GLzbc1qcqwjujg2h3dp3n9k0fa6ysset8u87xr95x547uam.py", line 6, in <module>
    losyimg = id.avatar_url_as(format=png, static_format='png', size=512)
AttributeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object has no attribute 'avatar_url_as'```

😦

i want it to return if the member has that specific role but doesn't seem to work

Why it isn't set the thumbnail

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def clear(ctx, amount : int):
  await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount)
  emb=discord.Embed(title="Messages deleted successfully", description="🗑")
  emb.add_field(name=f"Responsible moderator : {ctx.author.name}", value=f"Responsible channel {ctx.channel.mention}")
  emb.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)
  msg=await ctx.send(embed=emb, delete_after=3)

?

[sage mural]

do

userAvatar = member.avatar_url
print(userAvatar)

[slate swan]

print

ok

[dapper cobalt]

role = ctx.guild.get_role(role_id)
if role in ctx.author.roles:
  # do something

[dapper cobalt]

thumbnail does not have a url attribute. Either icon_url or text.

!d discord.Embed.set_thumbnail

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_thumbnail

set_thumbnail(*, url)```
Sets the thumbnail for the embed content.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Changed in version 1.4: Passing [`Empty`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Embed.Empty "discord.Embed.Empty") removes the thumbnail.

[dapper cobalt]

Wait, it does?

[slate swan]

can i do it with a specific id

[sage mural]

async def dp(ctx, *, member: discord.Member = None):
    if not member:
        member = ctx.message.author
    userAvatar = member.avatar_url
    await ctx.send(userAvatar)

[slate swan]

no i mean im trying to get my pfp's link print to terminal

[lament mesa]

you can do log = print

[slate swan]

not in like a bot

[sage mural]

ok so do

async def dp(ctx, *, member: discord.Member = None):
    if not member:
        member = ctx.message.author
    userAvatar = member.avatar_url
    print(userAvatar)

[slate swan]

doesnt do anything

aint shoving the link

[stark bobcat]

Hoi

[dapper cobalt]

I was talking about set_thumbnail as if it was set_footer. My bad. 😬

[sage mural]

author = message.author
print(author.avatar_url)

try that

[wary ravine]

does anyone know how the Python bot's !e command works?

[stark bobcat]

!source eval

[unkempt canyon]

Command: eval

Run Python code and get the results.

Source Code

Go to GitHub

bot/exts/utils/snekbox.py:281

[dapper cobalt]

async def dp(ctx, *, member:discord.Member=None):
  if member is None:
    member = ctx.author
  print(member.avatar_url)

That's shorter and easier. 🙂

[slate swan]

hmm

can you do it vith ids?

[wary ravine]

thanks

[dapper cobalt]

It will take member IDs, usernames, nicknames, or @.

[slate swan]

but what if i dont want to use a bot for that

like

[stark bobcat]

ctx.author.id?

[slate swan]

no i mean a specific

like mine

531507203811573762

see

[dapper cobalt]

You want it to print only your avatar url?

[slate swan]

yeaa

[stark bobcat]

oh

[dapper cobalt]

async def dp(ctx):

[slate swan]

hmmm

[slate swan]

it refuses to print

[maiden fable]

[maiden fable]

I need help

[stark bobcat]

Did u do "prefix test"? on your test server?

[dapper cobalt]

You didn't run the bot.

[lament mesa]

i used to read the source code for fun

[maiden fable]

#help-lemon

[lament mesa]

used to

[sage mural]

@slate swan you need a bot to test it on

[slate swan]

but i just want to print it

do i need a token for that

[stark bobcat]

Ye

[dapper cobalt]

Yes.

[stark bobcat]

[sage mural]

[dapper cobalt]

How are you going to make a bot without specifying which bot?

[sage mural]

you can use a public api to parse your id and return the url that way

[stark bobcat]

What's public api?

[slate swan]

i dont need a bot tho

[sage mural]

wa?

a api that is public?

[slate swan]

where can i get that

[stark bobcat]

Uh

[slate swan]

that would be ig better

[dapper cobalt]

What..

[slate swan]

bruh

i just want my link to be printed

[dapper cobalt]

You need a bot.

You won't get the link from thin air buddy.

You need something to get the link.

            await channel.send("test")

        remind.start()

Should I start the loop in the setup() function?

[eager bolt]

probably

[dapper cobalt]

I just tried, and as I expected, remind is not defined.

Probably it should be ClassName.remind.start().

Nope. 'VoteReminder' has no attribute 'remind'.

[stark bobcat]

You can use !charinfo

!charinfo 👍

[unkempt canyon]

\U0001f44d: THUMBS UP SIGN - 👍

[upbeat otter]

Oh its ok, i copied the emojis from google

[lament mesa]

[upbeat otter]

But thanku

[dapper cobalt]

I had an indentation problem. The loop was inside a function lol.

!d discord.Guild.create_category

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_category

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

Same as [`create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel "discord.Guild.create_text_channel") except makes a [`CategoryChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.CategoryChannel "discord.CategoryChannel") instead.

Note

The `category` parameter is not supported in this function since categories cannot have categories.

[hoary gust]

whats that position for

how can i use it

i wanna use that position

[dapper cobalt]

It's the position of the category in the server's categories' index.

[hoary gust]

how can i keeep it on the first

[dapper cobalt]

position=0.

[hoary gust]

thanks

[hoary gust]

guys is it even possible to get the everyone role

[dapper cobalt]

What do you mean by get it?

[hoary gust]

i wanna write overwrites for @sturdy shoalone role but how can i get a role that is default in every server

[dapper cobalt]

The everyone role's ID is as same as the guild's ID.

[hoary gust]

wait is it ???

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah.

[hoary gust]

ok

why everytime with me

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

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

!d discord.Message.attachments

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.attachments

A list of attachments given to a message.

[dapper cobalt]

Will return a list of attachments (discord.Attachment) which has a url attribute.

!d discord.Attachment

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Attachment

class discord.Attachment```
Represents an attachment from Discord.

`str(x)` Returns the URL of the attachment.

`x == y` Checks if the attachment is equal to another attachment.

`x != y` Checks if the attachment is not equal to another attachment.

`hash(x)` Returns the hash of the attachment.

Changed in version 1.7: Attachment can now be casted to [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.9)") and is hashable.

[daring valley]

how would i make json list for guilds + list of members inside of them

[wispy sequoia]

heeeelp

[sage mural]

you would want to append a array

[dapper cobalt]

Why make a JSON list when you can get them from the bot's cache?

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.on_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_message

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

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

Warning

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

[wispy sequoia]

no

read the other messages

[dapper cobalt]

You want it to reply when someone sends "hello @bot" right?

[wispy sequoia]

yes

[dapper cobalt]

Then you need an on_message event.

[wispy sequoia]

whut

[dapper cobalt]

And check if the message.content is equal to "hello <@bot_id>"

[daring valley]

no like this

{
  "1234567890": {"12345678901234567890": "something","2345678901234567890": "something2"}
}

[dapper cobalt]

Example:

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.content == "hello":
    await message.channel.send("Hi")

[wispy sequoia]

if message.content.lower().startswith("hello ricardo" or "hello ricardo bot"):
        if (not message.author.id in devs):
            await message.channel.send("Hello " + "<@!" + str(message.author.id) + ">! :yum:")
        elif (message.author.id in devs):
            await message.channel.send("Hello dev! :smile:")```

I want another or

    await msg.add_reaction(":one:")```

                await ctx.guild.create_category(var, overwrites=perms, reason="verification system", position=0)```
i wanna get the overwrites for that verification category but how

[novel rampart]

i am dm the message athour

[hasty iron]

use the embed kwargs

[supple thorn]

Is there a way to join a server where your bot is in but dont know any invite codes

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron

^

[hasty iron]

!d discord.CategoryChannel.overwrites

[unkempt canyon]

discord.CategoryChannel.overwrites

overwrites```
Returns all of the channel’s overwrites.

This is returned as a dictionary where the key contains the target which can be either a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") or a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") and the value is the overwrite as a [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite").

[hoary gust]

no i mean

[hasty iron]

"i wanna get the overwrites for that verification category but how"

[novel rampart]

why

this like

[hasty iron]

"the overwrites for that verification category "

[novel rampart]

output

[hasty iron]

use the embed kwarg

[hoary gust]

perms = var.overwrites_for(everyone)

in here its telling that the str var has no attribute category but i want that for the verification category but how

@hasty iron ^ this one

[hasty iron]

create_category returns the created category channel

[dapper cobalt]

Try permissions_for instead of overwrites_for.

[supple thorn]

[novel rampart]

i don't understand

[hasty iron]

var is a string, still wouldn't work

[hoary gust]

so will it require any class

[dapper cobalt]

Try to create an invite for any channel in the server.

[dapper cobalt]

Ah right.

You need to get the category first.

[hasty iron]

?? just get the retruned value of create_category and use that instead

[hasty iron]

use the embed keyword argument of send

[dapper cobalt]

create_category will return a CategoryChannel object of the category created.

[hoary gust]

can u just gimme a example and tell me what u mean

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.CategoryChannel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.CategoryChannel

class discord.CategoryChannel```
Represents a Discord channel category.

These are useful to group channels to logical compartments.

`x == y` Checks if two channels are equal.

`x != y` Checks if two channels are not equal.

`hash(x)` Returns the category’s hash.

`str(x)` Returns the category’s name.

[hasty iron]

create_category returns a CategoryChannel

i dont know what you dont undertsnad

[hoary gust]

ok

[dapper cobalt]

categ = await ctx.guild.create_category(name="something")
print(categ)

[hoary gust]

@dapper cobalt wht should i put instead of var

me getting confused at that cpoint

point

[dapper cobalt]

var = await ctx.guild.create_category(*kwargs)

[hoary gust]

ok

lemme try

@dapper cobalt

                everyone = ctx.guild.get_role(ctx.guild.id)
                perms = var.overwrites_for(everyone)
                perms.send_messages = False
                perms.read_messages=False
                perms.speak=False
                perms.read_message_history=False
                var = await ctx.guild.create_category("Verification-Logger", overwrites=perms, reason="For zenesis verification system", position=0)```
still its wrong in the second line i need to assign something valid

[dapper cobalt]

What do u think the problem is? 🙂

[hasty iron]

var = await ctx.guild.create_category("Verification-Logger",overwrites=perms, reason="For zenesis verification system", position=0) needs to be before perms = var.overwrites_for(everyone)

these are basic issues

if you can't fix them alone

[hoary gust]

yep so how will i overwrite it

[hasty iron]

you should go back to basic python

what

[dapper cobalt]

By overwriting it.

[hoary gust]

i mean i know what u r talking about but i am facing a different issue

[dapper cobalt]

Give me your full code.

[ocean trail]

How do I start writing a Discord BOT in Python?

[dapper cobalt]

Google.

[ocean trail]

stop being so rude

say to me

[hasty iron]

i think overwrites is a dict[Role | Member, PermissionOverwrites]

[dapper cobalt]

Ask for help with your code here, not how to start from the zero.

[dapper cobalt]

I'm not?

[valid perch]

!d discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord

In order to work with the library and the Discord API in general, we must first create a Discord Bot account.

Creating a Bot account is a pretty straightforward process.

[ocean trail]

pls

help me how to start from zero

I want it

[wispy sequoia]

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

[valid perch]

Heres the docs, go look into what you want and build a bot from it. Theres also examples

[hoary gust]

well is there anyway i can get the required category in overwrites_for

[hasty iron]

@hoary gusthttps://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=create_cate#discord.Guild.create_text_channel look at the overwrites argument

[hasty iron]

the category isn't even created yet ?? how do you expect to get overwrites for something that doesn't even exist

[hoary gust]

yes

thats the issue

[wispy sequoia]

I want to add another or statement with "hello " string + the bot mention

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/858945658563592193/882606833230020638/unknown.png

[hasty iron]

refer to this then @hoary gust

oops

message before it

[hoary gust]

??

[hasty iron]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=create_cate#discord.Guild.create_text_channel

look at the overwrites argument

look at what it takes

it takes in a dictionary

overwrites = {
    guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=False),
    guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True)
}

channel = await guild.create_text_channel('secret', overwrites=overwrites)

thats the example

[dapper cobalt]

or "hello <@bot_id_here>"

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron i am using overwrites_for

[hasty iron]

dont use that ??? the thing doesnt even exist

use your brain for a moment

[dapper cobalt]

They made you lose it.

[hoary gust]

look at this

[hasty iron]

are you even listening

to what i am saying

the category doesn't even exist???

overwrites = {
    guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=False),
    guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True)
}

channel = await guild.create_text_channel('secret', overwrites=overwrites)
``` this is how you're supposed to do it

[hoary gust]

yes

[dapper cobalt]

Make it exist

Then you can do the rest.

[hasty iron]

replace create_text_channel with create_category and change the overwrites dict

[hoary gust]

so i need to make it exist first

[dapper cobalt]

[hoary gust]

wait a sec i have written create_category

[hasty iron]

what

[hoary gust]

lol

[dapper cobalt]

Can you show us the full code?

[hoary gust]

wait a sec

[hasty iron]

man i give up, good luck

[dapper cobalt]

!paste if it's too long

[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.pydis.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[dapper cobalt]

[ocean trail]

hmmmmm?

[ocean trail]

Can I test your Discord BOTs pls I want it

[hoary gust]

@dapper cobalt

        stats = w.find_one({"guild": ctx.guild.id})
        print(3)
        category = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.categories, name='Verification-Logger')
        print(4)
        if stats is None:
            print(5)
            if category is None:
                everyone = ctx.guild.get_role(ctx.guild.id)
                perms = var.overwrites_for(everyone)
                perms.send_messages = False
                perms.read_messages=False
                perms.speak=False
                perms.read_message_history=False
                await ctx.guild.create_category("Verification-Logger", overwrites=perms, reason="For zenesis verification system", position=0)

[ocean trail]

Ok

[compact field]

guys can i use member token instead bot token ?

[hoary gust]

no

[dapper cobalt]

That's called self-botting

[vagrant brook]

Against TOS

[hoary gust]

@dapper cobalt ^

[compact field]

ok,but how can i do that ?

[vagrant brook]

You will get banned if you get caught doing that

[hoary gust]

!rule 2

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

2. Follow the Discord Community Guidelines and Terms Of Service.

[valid perch]

Lets not do that

[compact field]

how can i do self-botting ?

[dapper cobalt]

Don't do it.

[hoary gust]

stop it bud

[vagrant brook]

Okay did you just ignore the 3 above messages

[manic wing]

o.O

[compact field]

why ?

[hoary gust]

u can get banned

[slate swan]

@compact field We won't be helping you with ToS breaking projects

[hoary gust]

@dapper cobalt

[slate swan]

Please don't ask for help with it

[compact field]

ok sorry

[hoary gust]

i need to define var

but with what?

[dapper cobalt]

        stats = w.find_one({"guild": ctx.guild.id})
        print(3)
        category = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.categories, name='Verification-Logger')
        if category is None:
          overrides = {ctx.guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrites(send_messages=False, read_messages=False)}
          category = await ctx.guild.create_category(name="Verification-Logger", overwrites=overrides)

@hoary gust

[hoary gust]

is that default role everyone

[dapper cobalt]

Yes.

[hoary gust]

i see lemme try it

@dapper cobalt got a error
discord dont have any permission overwrites

[dapper cobalt]

Replace PermissionOverwrites with PermissionOverwrite

[hasty iron]

i think its discord.PermissionOverwrite

[dapper cobalt]

My bad, I added an s.

[hoary gust]

ok

Enable the members intents

!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. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot 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

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

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

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[dapper cobalt]

First, it's on_member_join
Second, it's @client.event
Third, you don't need to pass id in get_channel
Fourth, embed.set_author is outside the function
Fifth, enable member intents.

[ocean trail]

Learn me how to make a enmbed in Python

[valid perch]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(**kwargs)```
Represents a Discord embed.

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

Certain properties return an `EmbedProxy`, a type that acts similar to a regular [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.9)") except using dotted access, e.g. `embed.author.icon_url`. If the attribute is invalid or empty, then a special sentinel value is returned, [`Embed.Empty`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Embed.Empty "discord.Embed.Empty").

For ease of use, all parameters that expect a [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.9)") are implicitly casted to [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.9)") for you.

playing voice memes, not against tos

also how to stop what it is playing?

[hoary gust]

@lament mesa is it even possible cause i am not getting anything related to category in this event in the dpy docs

[lament mesa]

on_guild_update

[hoary gust]

but how

[void fox]

how can i create one in my embed?

[hoary gust]

i didnt get anything about category in the docs

[lament mesa]

check if before.categories is equal to after.categories

[gloomy coral]

also how to auto leave vc after inactivity

@lament mesa

[hoary gust]

what!

[lament mesa]

check if the members joined in the vc is equal to one

[lament mesa]

on_guild_update triggers on changes done on categories

[gleaming torrent]

How do I make my bot ban other bots that wasnt invited? Like raid bots

Hello?

[void fox]

what is needed for it!?

[gleaming torrent]

For the bot ban?, just wanna make my server secured

some people use bots to nuke servers

So I wanna make my bot ban

those

[void fox]

I meant that

[gleaming torrent]

Dm?

I know that

[void fox]

you misunderstood i don't know your problem i wanted to solve my own!

[gleaming torrent]

Yeah, I know embeds

[dapper cobalt]

What do you mean "that wasn't invited"?

[gleaming torrent]

For example, raid bots, that my staff didnt agree on adding, just randomly showing up

[dapper cobalt]

A bot can't join a server without being added by someone who has manage server permissions, and no user can join a server without a valid invite link.

[gleaming torrent]

Well incase my staff decide to add bad bots

Like raid bots

Btw nice username

[dapper cobalt]

The problem can be solved by decreasing the staff permissions. manage server permissions are pretty dangerous to grant.

[dapper cobalt]

Thank you.

[gleaming torrent]

Well anyways

how do I make my bot ban bots

that wasnt invited

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Member.ban

[gleaming torrent]

by me

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.ban

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

Bans this member. Equivalent to [`Guild.ban()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Guild.ban "discord.Guild.ban").

[gleaming torrent]

Well do I put something loke that?

like*

[dapper cobalt]

[gleaming torrent]

So

[dapper cobalt]

[unkempt canyon]

discord.AuditLogAction.bot\_add

You can't send a empty message

[compact field]

my message is not empty

[stark bobcat]

Eh what's message.content

content

[compact field]

this is my text

some text

[stark bobcat]

Message is spelled weong

And you need : after a if statement

[gleaming torrent]

Emoji limit?

[spring flax]

do you have intents

[gleaming torrent]

how do I make emoji limit

[stark bobcat]

if message.content.startswith("n/news"):

Should be like this

[spring flax]

@slate swan also what is your bot prefix

so why not use commands?

you don't know what commands are ?

[compact field]

guys what is wrong please help me :(

[vagrant brook]

somehow message.content is empty

Maybe because someone sent an image

[compact field]

no thats text

not image

[vagrant brook]

are you sure no one sent a blank message

[modern pewter]

What's the best alternative for discord.py?

[compact field]

im sure i test it

[vagrant brook]

I think user join message also counts as a blank message

[compact field]

what can i do ?

[stark bobcat]

Pycord?

[vagrant brook]

You can just use on_member_join instead of on_message

[modern pewter]

Pycord?? Hmmm

[sterile carbon]

    for guild in bot.guilds:
        for member in guild.members:
            print(member)

testerbotlolaaaaaddd#1519
@everyone
testerbotlolaaaaaddd

why is this the output, the bot is only in one server with me, and 2 other bots

[compact field]

no when member sent message i need this

[vagrant brook]

Can you replicate the error and send me what message you sent in the channel

[compact field]

yes wait

[modern pewter]

Is this available too if discord.py will be uhh phased out I think?

[stark bobcat]

Yeah

[vagrant brook]

Sounds wrong

Do you have any code below that one

[sterile carbon]

yes

[stark bobcat]

Pycord is active

[vagrant brook]

Which prints roles ig

The two last lines are roles

[sterile carbon]

    for guild in bot.guilds:
        for member in guild.members:
            print(member)
            for role in member.roles:
                print(role)
                if role.name == 'S1':
                    role1 = discord.utils.get(message.guild.roles, name = "S2")
                    await member.add_role(role1)

it gets only the bot then

for some reason

[vagrant brook]

Are you sure the bot has enough permissions to add the role

[sterile carbon]

yes

admin

[vagrant brook]

Are you sure the bot's role is higher than S2

[compact field]

discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message

test is my text

@bot.event

        channel1 = bot.get_channel(828022487660494867)
        await channel1.send(message.content)

and my code

[sterile carbon]

the problem is it doesnt find any other members

[vagrant brook]

Just take a screenshot if you can

[sterile carbon]

it only finds itself

[vagrant brook]

Because it raises an error

And stops the function right after that

I guess ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[compact field]

@vagrant brook

[vagrant brook]

Ah I mean your message

[sterile carbon]

no, i gave it the highest role and still doesnt work

what ?

[vagrant brook]

The message you sent that caused the error

[compact field]

yes but what is wrong ?

how can i fix it ?

[vagrant brook]

The message has empty content

That's the problem

You are missing : after if

[compact field]

no im sure about that my message has content

[sage mural]

plus what is the code before it?

[vagrant brook]

Content means plain text

Embeds or images don't count as content

Uhmmm

You need a colon after the )

[sage mural]

why are people doing on_message

[vagrant brook]

imo you should go back and learn some basic python before using discord.py

[sage mural]

just do

async def commandname(ctx):

also send the code here

I will fix it for you

[vagrant brook]

I just told him he's missing a colon after )

[sage mural]

@slate swan just post it here

[vagrant brook]

You should really learn basic python first smh

That's why I told you to learn python first

discord.py isn't a beginner library

Hello, how do I make my bot detect self botting?

And ban

[vagrant brook]

How is that even possible

[slate swan]

[hasty iron]

you can't just detect it

[slate swan]

lol

[gleaming torrent]

Oh ok

[vagrant brook]

I guess you can check if someone sent an embed with an user account

[slate swan]

[vagrant brook]

Btw discord TOS requires you to be at least 13

[slate swan]

how to do that?

[gleaming torrent]

Im 13 so I can be here

[vagrant brook]

That's called button components
