You can

!d discord.PermissionOverwrite

[unkempt canyon]

discord.PermissionOverwrite

class discord.PermissionOverwrite(**kwargs)```
A type that is used to represent a channel specific permission.

Unlike a regular [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the default value of a permission is equivalent to `None` and not `False`. Setting a value to `False` is **explicitly** denying that permission, while setting a value to `True` is **explicitly** allowing that permission.

The values supported by this are the same as [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions") with the added possibility of it being set to `None`.

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

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

`iter(x)` Returns an iterator of `(perm, value)` pairs. This allows it to be, for example, constructed as a dict or a list of pairs. Note that aliases are not shown.

[slate swan]

PermissionOverwrite, yes

[inner orbit]

I guess you can do it by using APIs

[sage mural]

try await ctx

[vagrant brook]

get_role isn't a coroutine

You don't have to await it

[sage mural]

oh yeah

the bot needs admin

as its changing roles

and permissions

you can set it to be admin in the developer page

but give it a admin role and try

[vagrant brook]

Manage Channels permissions should work

[slate swan]

[sinful comet]

How do I get my bot to detect when a user has changed their status to contain certain words?

I have all intents enabled

[vagrant brook]

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change...

[past ermine]

Hi, so I have the following code or line

cur.execute(f'''INSERT INTO GUILD_{ctx.guild.id} (user_id) VALUES ({x.id})''')
``` and i need it to ignore if the(user_id) already exists

[full lily]

i strongly suggest avoiding the use of f strings in sql queries

you can get into some nasty sql injection problems

[vagrant brook]

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to ask about SQL

[past ermine]

but it's for a discord bot

so?

[vagrant brook]

#databases should be better

[sage mural]

you can still sql

but here you cannot

as it's just grabbing the guild id

[vagrant brook]

!d discord.on_guild_channel_create

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_guild\_channel\_create

discord.on_guild_channel_delete(channel)``````py

discord.on_guild_channel_create(channel)```
Called whenever a guild channel is deleted or created.

Note that you can get the guild from [`guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.abc.GuildChannel.guild "discord.abc.GuildChannel.guild").

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

[sinful comet]

but what do I input? Like I want to check if there status contains certain words

[vagrant brook]

Check if their new status contains a certain word?

[slate swan]

How do I edit embed?

[vagrant brook]

Does it even make sense to have access and do not have access to something at the same time

[sinful comet]

yes

[vagrant brook]

You can pass embed to edit()

[vagrant brook]

I mean that's exactly what you would do

[sinful comet]

I want to make it where if they have a servers vanity invite, to give them a role

[sinful comet]

Ok

[slate swan]

Soo I use
embed.edit()

[minor kestrel]

Can I do the bot to transmit video when connected to a discord channel?

[slate swan]

Bots can't stream

if you need to share a video file in a text channel. yes

[sinful comet]

Should be bot as I see in your code

!d discord.Embed.set_footer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_footer

set_footer(*, text=Embed.Empty, icon_url=Embed.Empty)```
Sets the footer for the embed content.

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

[marsh depot]

ty

[spring flax]

you didn't define client and you used client in your code @slate swan

[slate swan]

oh ok

so i change that to bot

[spring flax]

Yes

[slate swan]

Hello...
Is it possible to get the remaining cooldown time of a mentioned Member?

Like if a member used f!daily which can be done every 24 h

Is it possible for others to see how much time is left for that member?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown.retry_after

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown.retry\_after

The amount of seconds to wait before you can retry again.

[willow vine]

if im using bot instead of client do i use
discord_client or discord_bot

[maiden fable]

bot

[willow vine]

it will work?

[slate swan]

Yeah but of a mentioned user?

[maiden fable]

Mhm

Use it in on_command_error

sorry im new ;-;

[hearty edge]

Has anyone tried hikari?

[compact field]

guys how can i convert string of message object to message object ?

[spring flax]

huh

[maiden fable]

Eh, I am gonna use disnake, so no hikari

[maiden fable]

....

[spring flax]

well if you are looking for a alternative to dpy for 2022, you can try enchanced dpy

[slate swan]

I was trying a to create a command that will get a mentioned user remaining time

[compact field]

?

[slate swan]

I know it works on command_error

:(

[hearty edge]

Hmm, I'll look into it

[maiden fable]

Hmm, u gotta use some internals like get_bucket and stuff. Just like in an on_message cooldown

[compact field]

somebody can help ?

[slate swan]

Okk I will see!

[maiden fable]

U gotta send that as a message dude...

[hearty edge]

https://pypi.org/project/enhanced-dpy/
This right?

[maiden fable]

Yea

Or u can also look into disnake

[hearty edge]

Okay

[compact field]

no something like this

'<Message ....>'

to
this

<Message ....>

[maiden fable]

Indeed lmao

[compact field]

guys how can i convert ?

'<Message ....>'

to

<Message ....>

str to message object

[sweet pilot]

how to check whether a message is available?

[sage chasm]

Good morning ! I would like to know if it would be possible to use Pydroid to run a program acting on discord, and if so, how to link Pydroid to discord? On computer, I used my terminal to link the two, but on Android I have no idea how I could do it, and if it would even be possible! Thank you in advance for your answers

Another question ... If this is not possible, would you have a python program hosting solution other than Heroku which only offers 500h of activity? I headed to Naglito, but at the moment their servers are all in use, and unfortunately I can't find any other hosting solutions at the moment.

[compact field]

??

[sweet pilot]

I have a question

why does it start with good morning and end with evenning

[sage chasm]

Yes ?

Lol

[exotic kelp]

check does the eval() function help you or not

[hasty iron]

the first one is a repr

you already have the object if the repr is printed or something

[exotic kelp]

put the string in the eval() function

[hasty iron]

!d object.repr

[unkempt canyon]

object.\_\_repr\_\_

object.__repr__(self)```
Called by the [`repr()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/functions.html#repr "repr") built-in function to compute the “official” string representation of an object. If at all possible, this should look like a valid Python expression that could be used to recreate an object with the same value (given an appropriate environment). If this is not possible, a string of the form `<...some useful description...>` should be returned. The return value must be a string object. If a class defines [`__repr__()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/reference/datamodel.html#object.__repr__ "object.__repr__") but not [`__str__()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/reference/datamodel.html#object.__str__ "object.__str__"), then [`__repr__()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/reference/datamodel.html#object.__repr__ "object.__repr__") is also used when an “informal” string representation of instances of that class is required.

This is typically used for debugging, so it is important that the representation is information-rich and unambiguous.

[sweet pilot]

wdym try to get the message

[sweet pilot]

lol you changed it

[sage chasm]

Yeah

what

[compact field]

code of convert

[hasty iron]

you cant

[iron shadow]

please answer if you know the problem

[compact field]

why ?

[hasty iron]

you cant convert a str -> other object

its just impossible

[exotic kelp]

.format is a line down?

[compact field]

how can i save a object in json ?

[exotic kelp]

don't use .format, use f strings

[hasty iron]

why do you want to do that

are you saving a message object?

[compact field]

yes

[hasty iron]

if you are, save its id and fetch it later when you need it

[iron shadow]

now its displaying this

thanks

[exotic kelp]

eval('<Message ....>') did it work?

[hasty iron]

that wont work

[sweet pilot]

so u wanna use pydroid to simulate gestures and stuff?

in your phone?

[sage chasm]

Yes

Forget the first question

do you know a way to host a discord bot for free?

[ionic moss]

?tag vps

[sweet pilot]

aws?

[ionic moss]

wrong server

[sage chasm]

Aws ?

[ionic moss]

aws

[sweet pilot]

I use aws

amazon web services

[sage chasm]

It's free ?

[ionic moss]

yes for one year i guess

[sweet pilot]

they offer 1 year free plan with 750 hours worth of servers per month

[sage chasm]

sorry, i'm french, i didn't know the diminutive

Ok thanks

[ionic moss]

np

[sage chasm]

I will try to do that

[ionic moss]

mk

[sage chasm]

is it difficult to do?

[sweet pilot]

depends on your age

[sweet pilot]

if you are a adult it will just require you to verify your credit card 😅

[sage chasm]

I'm a minor 😅

Shit

[sweet pilot]

well, if you are an student, just ask for your mom's or dad's credit card

it won't cost you anything, it's just for verification

[sage chasm]

there are no other solutions / sites?

[sweet pilot]

best solutions require credit cards bro

you can ask for a credit card right?

[sweet pilot]

welp, if you have a microsoft student email you could try azure

[slate swan]

AWS doesn't need credit card if you are a student

[sweet pilot]

student verification requries a arm and a leg

[slate swan]

You need to send proof of begin a student

[sweet pilot]

its god damn hard

[slate swan]

Yeah ik

[sweet pilot]

I have tried maybe 5-6 times for github student

still no luck

[slate swan]

distro?

[spring flax]

Intents?

[slate swan]

whats that?

[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.

[spring flax]

@sweet pilot

[iron shadow]

pls

[sweet pilot]

oh great

[full lily]

why would the token be public?

You mean hide it in your code?

[ionic moss]

Use os.getenv() (you need to do import os first)

[iron shadow]

thanks

[sweet pilot]

just put it in a file and ignore it in git

[ionic moss]

for example, bot.run(os.getenv('token')) ('token' is just the name of the variable, the variable's key is hidden in that variable)

[dusky patio]

guys how can i get content of message in self-bot ?

[iron shadow]

wait so i just do os.getenv('token')

[ionic moss]

yes, should return the variable's value

[dusky patio]

no doesn t work in self-bot

[ionic moss]

then idk sorry

[sweet pilot]

what's self-bot

what's the library

[cloud dawn]

We don't give help here regarding a self-bot this is against ToS

Please stop mentioning this here.

[compact field]

we dont have ctx in on message

[ionic moss]

yep. also lemme contact modmail rn LOL

[ionic moss]

yeah

[sweet pilot]

yup

[ionic moss]

deleted

[sweet pilot]

no need to get him banned

[ionic moss]

its against discord tos

[sweet pilot]

yeah

and breaking tos will ban him

[ionic moss]

yeah

[sweet pilot]

I mean no need to do that 😅

[ionic moss]

yeah i know what you mean

[cloud dawn]

No, breaking ToS will get a verbal warn first. Then if he/she still ask about it after a verbal warning it will be a mute etc.

[ionic moss]

kk

[sweet pilot]

oh right

is using discord bot clients against tos @cloud dawn

[full lily]

yes?

[cloud dawn]

Discord bot clients are perfectly fine.

[full lily]

They've been cracking down lately, I've heard

My bad. I thought he was asking about self bots

[sweet pilot]

you mean super duper fine?

[cloud dawn]

Yes commands.Bot also uses Client it is inherited.

[sweet pilot]

I thought there can be restrictions because u can misuse the power given to the bot by using the discord bot client

[languid jungle]

@dusky patio Hello, as per rule 5, we will not help with self bots as they are against Discord's ToS. Please re-read our rules.

[cloud dawn]

I don't think i understand you, using a bot token from the discord portal is fine. Using your own client token is not fine.

[dusky patio]

@languid jungleWe need this for a good job, not an illegal one

[cloud dawn]

It's not illegal it's against ToS, disregarding of the task.

[sweet pilot]

altho you mean no harm, law is law my friend.

[sweet pilot]

if it's against tos, it's illegal right?

[sweet pilot]

I mean this one https://github.com/Flam3rboy/discord-bot-client

[thick pebble]

you agree to tos when making your discord account, its a legal agreement

[cloud dawn]

No a ToS is not going against the law. They can ban you from the API and send a warning to the user. If the user will not comply the company can make a Cease and Desists letter (Most likely will not happen). Take Groovy for example.

It's not like abusing the API will have the FBI raid your house.

[thick pebble]

        elif isinstance(error, commands.MessageNotFound):
            await ctx.send(f"**Error!** You must use this command in the same channel the counter is in")

can someone tell me why this doesnt catch the Message Not Found error

[thick pebble]

just because something is illegal does not mean the fbi will raid your house

How do I paste it into the embed! for example??

[gleaming torrent]

Heya, how do I prevent mass mentions? I know how to use len(). But dont know what to type.

[cloud dawn]

message.mentions is a list

[gleaming torrent]

Will try

Thank you anyways @cloud dawn

[cloud dawn]

!range-len

[unkempt canyon]

Iterating over range(len(...)) is a common approach to accessing each item in an ordered collection.

for i in range(len(my_list)):
    do_something(my_list[i])

The pythonic syntax is much simpler, and is guaranteed to produce elements in the same order:

for item in my_list:
    do_something(item)

Python has other solutions for cases when the index itself might be needed. To get the element at the same index from two or more lists, use zip. To get both the index and the element at that index, use enumerate.

[cloud dawn]

Just notice how the len is used disregard the for loop.

[void fox]

How can I paste!? like this

[gleaming torrent]

So
if len(message.mentions)

[cloud dawn]

👍

[gleaming torrent]

Alright

?

[vocal shoal]

so..i want to make my discord bot open source, should i put a license on the github repository? and if yes what license do u think fits well?

ok sorry i will remove it

[cloud dawn]

for example.

Alright

[cloud dawn]

?

just ignore this

someone asked me to not adverstive...

[waxen tangle]

how would i go about making a poll command? struggling about how to pass in 2 different options and put them on an embed?

[cloud dawn]

What do you got so far?

[waxen tangle]

@client.command()
async def poll(ctx, *, text):
    pollEm = discord.Embed(title='Test',
                           color=discord.Color.random(),
                           description=text,
                           timestamp=datetime.utcnow())
    pollEm.set_author(name=f"{client.user}", icon_url=client.user.avatar_url)
    await ctx.send(embed=pollEm)```

[cloud dawn]

What is the result?

[waxen tangle]

i wanna add like 1️⃣ and 2️⃣ on different lines of the embed if i can figuree out how to take in 2 separate things and display them, maybe seperate both options by a ,

[waxen tangle]

well it displays an embed

[hasty iron]

do something like (ctx, *polls):

[waxen tangle]

and takes in a text

[hasty iron]

polls will be a tuple then

[cloud dawn]

text is a tuple

[hasty iron]

what

[cloud dawn]

!e ```py
def somefunc(*, someargs):
print(someargs)

somefunc('a', 'b', 'c')

[hasty iron]

???

[round quarry]

What are the requirements to program the bot?

[waxen tangle]

?

[cloud dawn]

Try it in a discord bot somehow it's valid.

[hasty iron]

what

do something like (ctx, *polls): -> polls will be a tuple then

[cloud dawn]

I know but his method also weirdly works i've tried.

[hasty iron]

doing *, polls will make polls a keyword argument

[willow vine]

someone told i could use voice_bot instead of voice_client
it doesn't work it says, Context has no attribute voice_bot
what do i do?

[hasty iron]

ok whats the case that it turns into a tuple

[hasty iron]

ctx.voice_client

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.voice_client

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.voice\_client

voice_client```
A shortcut to [`Guild.voice_client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Guild.voice_client "discord.Guild.voice_client"), if applicable.

[willow vine]

since i've used bot instead of client everywhere will it word?

work

[hasty iron]

what?

its Context.voice_client no matter what

[willow vine]

oh

okay thanks

So I have a debug command to see what permissions my bot has. I used {dict(ctx.me.guild_permissions)}.

How can I make it so that if a permission is true then it will do something else with it and not send it. And if it's false it does send the permission it needs?

[rain bolt]

How to set a command on the user ?

[slate swan]

yeah, vultr is overprices though.

[slate swan]

Use a command on a user?

Is that what you mean?

[rain bolt]

For example, I want to set the Clear command for my user that only I can use

[slate swan]

So just do a check to see if the command user is the owner.

[rain bolt]

I know about the roll, I do not know only about the user

[rain bolt]

watt ?

[slate swan]

So do what I said. Or instead of checking the owner, just see if the person is an ID. You would make the user's ID a int.

[slate swan]

I just gave you the answer in two different ways.

[rain bolt]

tnx for help

[spark dragon]

Ty : )

[slate swan]

also, the bottom part is important @spark dragon

make sure to have intents on

!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.

New in version 1.6.

[flat solstice]

Does this reply to msgs like users do (like I am doing here)? or is it literally just to send a normal response? and if it is the former; does it ping on reply by default or do I have to do somehting to make that happen

[vocal plover]

it replies to the message, and pings

[flat solstice]

okay cool

[vocal plover]

to send a normal response its just send()

[flat solstice]

yeah i was looking for the reply and ping one, just checking i understood it right

[flat solstice]

so I tried that and it's just sending the msg in the same way as send() does and the bot's not pinging nor replying to me

[spring flax]

Code?

[flat solstice]

    @commands.guild_only()
    @commands.command(description = "Show the status of a member or of yourself.", usage = "status [member]", aliases = ["us", "user-status", "member-status"])

[drifting quest]

Okay hey @bronze wigeon how should I get started considering I know nothing about python or discord bots

I need this asap

But I don't know nothing about python or stuff

[bronze wigeon]

We have suggested how to get started, youtube, you can use the resources in !resources, you can use https://automatetheboringstuff.com, lots

[drifting quest]

I'm desperate you can say

[bronze wigeon]

I could tell

[drifting quest]

Okay how much time shall it take before I can finally make a discord bot for my server considering my condition

[bronze wigeon]

I can't answer that

it depends on how you learn and how well you learn it

[hasty iron]

whats your condition

[drifting quest]

Well I might be honest I'm not a really fast or good learner

[drifting quest]

I dunno nothing about discord bots or python and I wanna make a custom bot

As soon as possible

[hasty iron]

why

[bronze wigeon]

Then it may take awhile, it may take months, weeks, years, it's not immediate

[drifting quest]

Years!?

[bronze wigeon]

Depends how well you learn, usually it doesn't take over 2 months to learn alot but

[hasty iron]

why are you trying to do it as fast as possible

take your time

[bronze wigeon]

^

I can't react but I would use

[drifting quest]

Cause the current developer in the server is stepping down and I wanna learn and make the bot

But I know nothing

[hasty iron]

you aren’t obligated to take the spot of developer

take your time, learn python and then become a dev for that server

[drifting quest]

Yeah that's what I'm trying

[bronze wigeon]

You clearly aren't

[drifting quest]

But I wanna do it fast don't wanna take much time

[hasty iron]

you’re trying to jump in discord.py without any knowledge

[drifting quest]

Why?

[bronze wigeon]

You can't avoid it taking time, if that were the case programmers would be obsolete

[hasty iron]

did you ever code? other languages

[bronze wigeon]

I assume you're talking to Luminity?

[hasty iron]

yes

[drifting quest]

I Just need the knowledge nessaary for the bot development dibugging and stuff no other use of it from me in real life

[hasty iron]

How much Python do I need to know?

discord.py is ultimately a complicated Python library for beginners. There are many concepts in there that can trip a beginner up and could be confusing. The design of the library is to be easy to use -- however the target audience for the library is not complete beginners of Python.

With that being said, beginners tend to use this library quite liberally anyway and while I appreciate the endeavour and tenacity it should be noted that asking for help here does take up the valuable time of volunteers. As a result certain knowledge is required before you can actively participate in the help channels:

• The difference between instances and class attributes.
  • e.g. guild.name vs discord.Guild.name or any variation of these.
• How to use data structures in the language.
  • dict/tuple/list/str/...
• How to solve NameError or SyntaxError exceptions.
• How to read and understand tracebacks.

This list is not exhaustive

If these concepts are confusing -- please feel free to complete a smaller and simpler project first before diving into the complexities that is asynchronous programming in Python. The Python help channel (#738572311107469354) or the Python server (https://discord.gg/python) could also be a place to go for basic Python help.

read that

[drifting quest]

Used to know a bit of java back in school sucked at it tho but now when I look back at it I think it was quite easy I just didn't wanna do it or try to understand it

[bronze wigeon]

In order to get that knowledge you need to know python or else it'll be like trying to type spanish when you only know english

You're essentially trying to run before trying to walk

So learn to walk, before trying to run

Hopefully that makes sense

[drifting quest]

I don't wanna do that positively but I wanna do it fast it's just that :((

[bronze wigeon]

You'll get confused on how to fix any errors if you don't know what the errors mean, and python helps you also learn those errors

You're trying to become the top dog in programming for that server but it's not that easy

[hasty iron]

if you do it as fast as possible it’s probably going to take you like 3-4 weeks

for discord.py

[drifting quest]

3-4 weeks seems nice a year seems horrible

[hasty iron]

async programming is going to take you a while though, it’s really complicated

[bronze wigeon]

That's assuming you only learn discord.py and don't take too many breaks

[drifting quest]

Async?

[pliant gulch]

Those 3-4 weeks are gonna be a pain and quite intensive if you don't even understand the basics though lol

[bronze wigeon]

Exactly

[hasty iron]

asynchronous

[pliant gulch]

You will be stuck for an hour on something such as indentation

It doesn't matter the speed imo, rather the efficiency

[bronze wigeon]

You would need to learn python asynchronous stuff before trying discord.py because, you'll get very lost very quickly

and you could use non-async functions however, it won't work very well

[drifting quest]

I'm not trying to push myself too much as I have University stuff also but still how much shall it take on an average

[hasty iron]

3 months then

or 2

it really depends on you

[drifting quest]

I want to learn it fast but when I think of it the way I rate I wanna learn it at doesn't comply with my life

[pliant gulch]

If your doing university why are you branching into something new and vast as programming? It will take a lot of your university time

[drifting quest]

I have other stuffs

[drifting quest]

Because I want to make a bot

[bronze wigeon]

You will most likely not be able to learn it in enough time to get this new developer spot, unless you risk your University Education to code a discord bot for a server just to not even be 100% likely to be accepted into making said bot

[pliant gulch]

Making a discord bot rather then having extra time for university

[drifting quest]

So it's a bad idea then?

[hasty iron]

focus on your uni for now

[bronze wigeon]

Because to my knowledge you have to like, make a bot and prove you are able to make a bot for them, which may mean you spend all your time learning, just to not even get that 100% chance of being accepted

[hasty iron]

when you have more free time, start with python

[pliant gulch]

If your university offers, why not take a python class or something alike

[drifting quest]

Nah I'm doing medicine enough load already

[slate swan]

bruh

[pliant gulch]

If your going into medicine you def won't have time for any discord bots

[drifting quest]

And above that it doesn't give python classes

[bronze wigeon]

Medicine > Programming

[drifting quest]

If it would have I sure would have gone

[slate swan]

then get comfortable first and then you will see if you actually have time

[hasty iron]

yeah let’s just switch to that

[drifting quest]

Are you sure I see programming as the future tho

[hasty iron]

then why did you do medicine

[bronze wigeon]

programming isn't 100% to make you decent income

it's mostly based on commission

[slate swan]

what you just said is contradictory to your actions taken

[bronze wigeon]

where someone will pay you to make something

[flat solstice]

If I want to have by bot use the reply feature to reply to a msg but I don't want it to ping \I'd need to add reply(allowed_mentions = False right?

[drifting quest]

Because as said earlier I used to learn Java back in school but I wasn't really good at it so I dropped

[drifting quest]

I only want to learn it for the bot

[hasty iron]

nobody becomes good at java at lightning speed

[bronze wigeon]

So you're taking medicine classes and now you're realizing you want to learn programming? doesn't make sense

I think what you're not understanding is programming no matter how easy will take time, python is the easiest to learn and it will still take time

[drifting quest]

I don't really like programming that much neither I'm much interested in it I'm Just interested in the bot

[bronze wigeon]

C++ will take a long time too, no matter what lang / form of lang it will take over a week

[slate swan]

this channel is the most off topic out of any topical help channels in this server lol

[bronze wigeon]

You've been bouncing back and forth on "I want to learn how to make a bot" but also "I want to take on programming in the future", I don't think you know what you want to do rn

[drifting quest]

I want to make a bot sure but I don't wanna take on programming in future I see programming as the future

Get it?

[hasty iron]

then once you spend 2-3 months learning, after you make the bot those months are going to be wasted

[drifting quest]

Nah I'll need them to maintain the bot ig

[bronze wigeon]

Once the bot is perfect for the server your learning will have been wasted and you'll regret it

[lament mesa]

Just add an existing bot

[bronze wigeon]

They won't maintain the bot, if they're able to maintain the bot they wouldn't have had someone program the bot for them

[drifting quest]

So I'll maintain it

[hasty iron]

what if the server dies

[bronze wigeon]

What if they find someone better

[drifting quest]

[bronze wigeon]

what if they figure it out on their own

[drifting quest]

It's not that a big community lol

[bronze wigeon]

So the server is likely to die

Meaning your education is more likely to have been wasted

[drifting quest]

Maybe yes maybe no

My main focus should be my education nonetheless

I'm not putting programing first

[hasty iron]

how are you planning to balance bot development and your uni studies

[drifting quest]

No idea tbh

[bronze wigeon]

You'd either need to plan for programming or medicine, not both

[hasty iron]

what if the server owners demand something big

[bronze wigeon]

You will either dedicate your time to learning python that may be useless once that server dies or you will dedicate your time to learning medicine that could save someone's life and make you a good income, so

[hasty iron]

drop out of uni to make a discord bot 👍

[drifting quest]

Hell no lol

[bronze wigeon]

/s

They were being sarcastic but still

we do believe you should learn medicine before learning a discord bot

[hasty iron]

focus on your university studies

a discord bot can wait

[lament mesa]

Tbh I felt like it was a waste after making a bot

[bronze wigeon]

what's the format for the things where it makes

- Something``` Red
and

• Something

[drifting quest]

Yang or something

[bronze wigeon]

Hm

[drifting quest]

There were codes I saw

[bronze wigeon]

Not a code lang

[hasty iron]

css makes stuff yellow iirc

[bronze wigeon]

you can do like ```py
print()

[hasty iron]

with discord markdown

i forgot red, but i don’t think there is something for green

[bronze wigeon]

+ Hello
- Hello
/Hello

nope

nothing like I need it to do

lemme ask in ot

[drifting swift]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    await client.process_commands(message)
    if message.type == discord.MessageType.premium_guild_subscription:
        chan = message.guild.get_channel(channelid)
        embed = discord.Embed(color=0x36393F)
        embed.set_author(name=str(message.author), icon_url=message.author.avatar_url)
        embed.description = "thanks for getting us to "+message.guild.premium_subscription_count+" boosts"
        await chan.send(embed=embed)

[bronze wigeon]

Alright so,

[drifting swift]

do yall see anything wrong with this code?

[drifting quest]

Wth is this

[drifting swift]

i cant exactly test it multiple times

[bronze wigeon]

Discord.py

[drifting quest]

Complicated holy moly

Didn't understand a single thing

[flat solstice]

```diff

• Here's some red colored text!

```diff
- Here's some red colored text!
```hmm doesn't seem to be working rn

[drifting swift]

discord.py? you can learn if you try

[drifting quest]

[slate swan]

Same lol, it feels boring once you know how to make a good one. But tbh I got a pretty good knowledge of APIs and libs by this.

[twilit adder]

anyone know if i can send the whole error on the on_command_error event?

[bronze wigeon]

Pros and Cons of learning discord.py vs learning medicine
__Learning Medicine__
Pros:
+ You can save people
+ You already paid
+ You get a decent income
+ It helps for yourself
Cons:
+ There aren't really any cons, you learn useful stuff

__Learning Discord.py (and trying to learn it quickly)__
Pros:
+ You learn how to make a discord bot 
+ You learn some python syntax (Very little)
+ You may learn to maintain it (until that small server dies)
Cons:
- You don't learn anything helpful for the future
- You waste your time learning discord.py when you could spend it on medicine
- You aren't likely to make a decent income
- You most likely do worse in your medicine

@drifting quest

[slate swan]

bruh

[lament mesa]

But we learnt a lot of asyncio and stuff...

[slate swan]

these guys lol

[bronze wigeon]

!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.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.

[hasty iron]

discord.py doesn’t really teach you alot of asyncio

[bronze wigeon]

what about route 66?

[slate swan]

do you know what my name means

[drifting quest]

speechless

[hasty iron]

its just asyncio.wait_for or something like that

[vocal plover]

- You don't learn anything helpful for the future
- You aren't likely to make a decent income

• You learn to program
• Programming pays well

[slate swan]

if you do i suggest you not talking about it here lol

[slate swan]

Also that but I have like a lot to learn in asyncio still. Dpy don't have much deep use of it

[lament mesa]

yeah, but that's what got me interested in it

[bronze wigeon]

Mainly why I said it teaches little syntax

[bronze wigeon]

if you JUST learn discord.py, it's useless not to mention confusing unless you learn python

[vocal plover]

You learn things by doing them, if you do enough dpy you'll pick up python as you go

[proven elm]

Anyone know why I get this issue with my code

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

  File "C:\Users\Twist\Desktop\Coding\Python\Discord Bot\discordbot.py", line 16, in <module>
    my_secret = os.environ['DISCORDBOTTOKEN']```

[bronze wigeon]

They also want to learn it as fast as possible

And also take medicine classes or classes relating to them, idrk what to call them

But they want to learn discord.py as fast as possible as well as learning medicine which will most def not work well together unless he wants lots of stress

[slate swan]

Also, you're not supposed to learn dpy without python It's a pain which can't be cured by a medicine
Having even a bit of knowledge of python speeds up and makes it easy and dpy actually makes a lot more sense then

[lament mesa]

Including the async-await syntax

[drifting quest]

Ok thanks guys specially@bronze wigeon I might do my medical for now might look into this bot stuff somewhere in future

[bronze wigeon]

Yea

[final iron]

Does anyone know any good guides for using asyncpraw in discord.py because I can't find any recent ones

[slate swan]

i dont think thats actually learning asyncio tbh, unless you messed with the internals of the library and actually understood what goes under the hood within the library

[hasty iron]

even the library itself doesn’t use much of asyncio

[slate swan]

prolly the best way would be just playing with asyncio itself

[bronze wigeon]

Speaking of, don't you need the asyncio module to use async functions? or does discord.py include it

[slate swan]

Yes, don't kill your busy time with only a bot. If you really like or want to try programming, try to do it in the free time since you're already having a uni for medicine and not really for just making a bot for a server

[hasty iron]

you use functions like asyncio.run as a main entry point of your program

[slate swan]

asyncio is inbuilt- also you don't need to import it unless you're using it directly

[drifting quest]

Okay thanks

[lament mesa]

I kinda messed with some internals

[bronze wigeon]

Not to mention the server is small so the chances of the knowledge going to waste is very likely

[bronze wigeon]

Ah

[slate swan]

It doesnt? I would say it does up a to point

nothing too complex but still

[hasty iron]

ive only seen asyncio.wait_for and asyncio.get_event_loop

[bronze wigeon]

I've only seen joe

[slate swan]

Knowledge most likely never gets wasted, it's just you prioritize something less important by ignoring more important stuff

[hasty iron]

other than creating tasks and stuff

[bronze wigeon]

True

[proven elm]

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Anyone know how to fix this error?

[slate swan]

cooldown mapping uses a weird type of semaphore too iirc?

[hoary gust]

Guys suggest me a cmd for my bot

[hasty iron]

ok well maybe locks as well

[slate swan]

it does then lol

[pliant gulch]

I don't think discord.py uses semaphores

[slate swan]

its not an asyncio.Semaphore because danny needed to access something i cant recall atm

[full lily]

You don't have an environment variable DISCORDBOTTOKEN

[slate swan]

so he created its own class

[pliant gulch]

I see wonder what caused for this work around

[proven elm]

how do I obtain an environment variable?

[full lily]

you would set it

[slate swan]

found it

class _Semaphore:
"""This class is a version of a semaphore.

If you're wondering why asyncio.Semaphore isn't being used,
it's because it doesn't expose the internal value. This internal
value is necessary because I need to support both `wait=True` and
`wait=False`.

An asyncio.Queue could have been used to do this as well -- but it is
not as inefficient since internally that uses two queues and is a bit
overkill for what is basically a counter.

[jagged root]

How do i make so code doesnt work if channel description not in there int his code:

async def suggest(ctx, *, query):```

[manic wing]

what?

[jagged root]

i only want the code to work in a given channel

if not return

[manic wing]

@bot.command()
async def suggest(ctx, *, query):
  if not channel.topic:
    return```

[jagged root]

in this code

async def suggest(ctx, *, query):```

ok

ill test that

[manic wing]

i already did

xd

[jagged root]

        return```
@manic wing

like this?

[manic wing]

@bot.command()
async def suggest(ctx, *, query):
  if channel.topic != 'Make a suggestion by typing !suggest here.':
    return

both work

[manic wing]

i prefer this

[jagged root]

k

doesnt work

[oblique cobalt]

You dont have channel defined by the way

[jagged root]

how then ?

[oblique cobalt]

You can access channel by ctx

if ctx.channel.topic != "Message here": return

[jagged root]

that what would do

only works if message topic is on there

?

[oblique cobalt]

Same as u would expect, but valid one since u dont have channel defined elsewhere

[jagged root]

ok

ill test

[oblique cobalt]

Make sure to replace "Message here"

[jagged root]

ik

and indent return

[oblique cobalt]

U dont have to

Onelining like that works

[jagged root]

oh

k

[bitter anchor]

Hey! I'm working on a fork of discord.py with a team of developers, and we just released slash command support in our public alpha today! If you'd like to learn more about our project, it's in my status and about me page. Our goal is to maintain a sustainable discord api wrapper for python, now that discord.py has been archived.

[manic wing]

oops, in the test i ran channel was predefined

[oblique cobalt]

It is fine

[manic wing]

im on team eqeunos

you should put return on a new line to follow PEP8 standards, even though it isn't required

Didnt work

[oblique cobalt]

topic is empty

[jagged root]

it isnt

i added the topic to the channel

[oblique cobalt]

From error, it is.

[bitter anchor]

there is a channel that the bot can see that doesnt have a topic set

you could try

[jagged root]

i swear its there

[bitter anchor]

if message.channel.topic and "NOS" not in message.channel.topic:

[jagged root]

k

[bitter anchor]

there is a channel that the bot can see that doesnt have a topic set

i'm not saying its that channel

just a channel

[bitter anchor]

Gonna be completely straight with ya bud. Never heard of it

yeah and ive never heard of you before

eqeunos is going to make the best one lol

thats subjective

now code works but in all channels

?

[oblique cobalt]

yes because of logic u did

[bitter anchor]

it works in all channels where "NOS" is not inside the channel topic

[jagged root]

nvm

fixed

thanks guys

[oblique cobalt]

lul

no problem

[proven elm]

why is it saying unknown words etc?

[bronze wigeon]

How could I go about using a bot token with raw http requests to authorize like, sending a message

[proper acorn]

can i have discord libraly link to learn?

[oblique cobalt]

Pretty sure it is "cSpell" extension giving that error and not related to dpy itself

[manic wing]

delete this right now

[proven elm]

nah its a fake token

I edited it

[manic wing]

!d discord.

[unkempt canyon]

Out of the question.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[proven elm]

I get this too though

[manic wing]

!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.

[flat solstice]

If I want to have my bot use the reply feature to reply to a msg but I don't want it to ping I'd need to add reply(allowed_mentions = False right?

[manic wing]

allowed_mentions=discord.AllowedMentions.none or smthing

[flat solstice]

don't think it's that as I keep getting this errorpy AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'to_dict'

[pliant gulch]

Just set it as False

and it isn't allowed_mentions

mention_author

[flat solstice]

okay thanks. i didn't see mention_author anywhere on the docs about the reply command

[slate swan]

Reset your token, you just leaked it

[proven elm]

nah I edited it by like 2 letters

[slate swan]

Still reset it, you made it easy to find the toke. Even if they only have some@of it

[proven elm]

true I will

also why is it not logging the join and leaves

oh now I leaked it fuck

[blazing beacon]

reset it

[proven elm]

done but why is it not logging join leaves

[vale pendant]

!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.

[blazing beacon]

cause that ^

[flat solstice]

also what theme is that for VSC

[proven elm]

so now I just put intents=intents) by the comman_prefix bit

[vale pendant]

Mhm

[proven elm]

wait no done

aha thank you it works now

    await member.guild.get_channel(868696187497234435).send(f'hi')

tried coding a join message. the problem is that the bot runs but it does not pop up any sort of message when a member joins the guild

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Embed for embeds.

[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.

[somber musk]

Leme read that thanks guys

[dapper cobalt]

Any errors?

[broken turtle]

i get this everytime someone joins

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Guild.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_channel

get_channel(channel_id)```
Returns a channel with the given ID.

[dapper cobalt]

Make sure that the channel exists.

[broken turtle]

thats what im doing

channel exists

[slate swan]

f string obsession

[dapper cobalt]

With the same ID?

[broken turtle]

yes

[dapper cobalt]

Do you have member intents enabled?

[slate swan]

if not, member would be nonetype

NoneType object has no attribute guild

[dapper cobalt]

Try to print member.

[somber musk]

@broken turtle did it work?

[proven elm]

I am getting a random not defined error anyone know the solution?

[slate swan]

import random

[proven elm]

ahhhh

ty

[somber musk]

What are you making?

[broken turtle]

i figured out the solution

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

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    await member.guild.get_channel(868696187497234435).send(f" Hi and welcome to the server {member.mention}")

oof

apologies then

[somber musk]

Epic

[somber musk]

hey in the await what are those numbers you wrote?

Because im trying to make somrthing similar to you

something*

[dapper cobalt]

A channel's id.

[somber musk]

how can you check that

[dapper cobalt]

Right click a channel and click "copy id".

[raven pewter]

How to make it where i @botname and it responds with a message

[somber musk]

oh ok

[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.

[raven pewter]

Make sure to have developer mode on!

[somber musk]

oh

i guess i need to check that

im gonna google how to turn that on

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.

[somber musk]

oh ok ty

[dapper cobalt]

!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.

[proven elm]

that shows the very basic stuff? nothing to do with code?

[dapper cobalt]

This is the documentation?

[proven elm]

it just shows how to invite a bot

[dapper cobalt]

My bad, here are the docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html

[proven elm]

ty

[somber musk]

how did you use those imports in your code, also which import is just for the welcoming join? because i dont think i need the others in my code

[broken turtle]

I dont know. It just works tbh

[somber musk]

wut

[broken turtle]

@somber musk what error are you gettung

[somber musk]

There's no error it just doesn't work and says half the imports aren't used

Like the imports you told me

[somber musk]

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self, message):
        with open("./veriler/antispam.json", "r") as config:
            data = json.load(config)

        if data.get(str(message.guild.id)) == True:  #errors
            def check (message):
                return (message.author == message.author and (datetime.datetime.utcnow() - message.created_at).seconds < 15)

            if message.author.guild_permissions.administrator:
                return 

            if len(list(filter(lambda m: check(m), self.client.cached_messages))) >= 8 and len(list(filter(lambda m: check(m), self.client.cached_messages))) < 12:
                await message.channel.send(f"{message.author.mention} Lütfen Spam yapma!")
            elif len(list(filter(lambda m: check(m), self.client.cached_messages))) >= 12:
                embed = discord.Embed(title = f"**Kullanıcı atıldı {message.author.guild.name}**", description = f"Sebep : Spam.", color = 0xff0000)
                await message.author.send(embed = embed)
                await message.author.kick() 
                await message.channel.send(f"{message.author.mention} Spam yaptığı için sunucudan atıldı !") 

Not worked

[slate swan]

That's bc what you're trying to do doesn't need all those imports

[fervent dust]

event part, but there is a problem in the database part, it does not prevent spam

[somber musk]

Ya ik but it doesn't work without the imports

[hasty iron]

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change...

[hasty iron]

it takes in two arguments

[slate swan]

Unused imports don't affect the code

[proven elm]

what do I put for the 2nd argument

[slate swan]

Read the docs

[hasty iron]

this

[proven elm]

I am but I dont quite understand

@hasty iron

[hasty iron]

the docs explain it well

[proven elm]

doesn't explain how to use it in my code

[hasty iron]

Parameters do

[proven elm]

@hasty iron okay so now it shows that I have updated my account information with the message I gave however doesn't show change was made

[hasty iron]

what

you have the change yourself

you have to check*

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members = True)
async def ban(ctx, member : discord.Member, *, reason = None):
    await member.ban(reason = reason)
    if member != None:
        embed = discord.Embed(
            title=f'{member} has been Banned',
            description=f'{member.mention} has been Banned',
            colour=0xf6dbd8
        )
        embed.add_field(name='Reason :', value=f'{reason}', inline=True)
        embed.set_thumbnail(url='')

        embed.add_field(name='Banned by :', value=f'{ctx.author.mention}')
        await ctx.message.reply(embed=embed)
    if member.id is None:
        eeee = discord.Embed(color=0xf6dbd8,
                        description="Ban")
        eeee = add.add_field(name="Usage", value="``^ban [Member] [Reason]``")
        await ctx.send(embed=eeee)
        return
    if member.id == ctx.author.id:
        e = discord.Embed(color=0xf6dbd8,
                          description="Error | you cannot ban yourself")
        await ctx.send(embed=e)
        return
    if member.top_role >= ctx.author.top_role:
        ee = discord.Embed(color=0xf6dbd8,
                           description="Error | you cannot ban that user")
        await ctx.send(embed=ee)
        return
    if reason is None:
        reason = "no reason provided"
        return```
how can i adjust the source so that when someone does ^ban it replys with the command usage instructions? as seen i have it defined as eeee, but it dosnt work for some reason

the ban function itself is fine, but its the if bits that dont work

[vale pendant]

you have to check it on a command error handler

that's what I did

commands.MissingRequiredArgument

[final iron]

So im creating a command with asyncpraw and im wondering if its possible for the user to be able to choose which subreddit the image is coming form?

Like a command ?subreddit meme

Then it displays an image from that subreddit

Wait nvm I did it

[proven elm]

  File "C:\Users\Twist\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\bot.py", line 939, in invoke

Anyone know how to fix this?

trying to get mutual friends via .mutuals @

[final iron]

send the code?

[proven elm]

@client.command()
async def mutuals(ctx, member: discord.Member):
    await member.mutual_friends()

[wise prairie]

what are some recommended hosting sites for a discord.py bot? I'm using contabo but it goes down way too frequently + they don't have 24/7 support

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def poll(ctx, question, option1=None, option2=None):
    if question is None:
        await ctx.reply(f"`Usage` - ^poll \"Question\" \"Option One\" \"Option Two\"")
    else:
        await ctx.channel.purge(limit=1)
        embed = discord.Embed(title=f"New Poll", color=0xf6dbd8)
        embed = embed.add_field(name="Question:", value=f"**{question}**")
        embed = embed.add_field(name="Options:", value=f"**✅ = {option1}**\n\n**❎ = {option2}**")
        embed = await ctx.send(embed=embed)
        await embed.add_reaction('✅')
        await embed.add_reaction('❎')```
error message wont print, any ideas?

[somber musk]

If your a beginner use replit it can be used 24/7 I suggest you seeing a video of it

[wise prairie]

I'm not a beginner. repl.it would fucking die trying to run my bot lmao

[somber musk]

Error

[somber musk]

Ok then

[wise prairie]

plus I need a database

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.MissingRequiredArgument: question is a required argument that is missing.

[somber musk]

Replit had db

[somber musk]

🇴

[wise prairie]

how are you running the command?

[slate swan]

wdym

[wise prairie]

like, !poll test or what

what's the specific command you are running

[slate swan]

^poll "question" "opt1" "opt2"

but im trying to make an exception so when you only do "^poll" it gives you instructions on how to use the cmd

[wise prairie]

there's your issue, question needs to be optional

[final iron]

I tried to make an error handler but its not functioning could I have some help on it?

        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
            embed_2=discord.Embed(description=f"You need to supply a subreddit. Example: <prefix>reddit <subreddit>",
                                  timestamp=ctx.message.created_at,
                                  color=0xff0000)
            embed.set_author(name=ctx.author, icon_url=ctx.author.avatar_url)
            embed.set_footer(text="Epic Bot | Discord bot |", icon_url="https://cdn.discordapp.com/embed/avatars/1.png")

            await ctx.send(embed=embed_2)
            return

[wise prairie]

so do an =none

[wise prairie]

where is this code?

[somber musk]

Have you used vs code

[vale pendant]

Like i said before, it's a command error handler.

[vale pendant]

^

[slate swan]

what would you recommend

[final iron]

Inside a command

[wise prairie]

My current IDE is PyCharm, what would my IDE have to do with a VPS

[vale pendant]

You check if the command is missing a required argument then make a embed explaikng how to use it.

[wise prairie]

you need to put this in a bot event for on command error. Here's my equivalent in my bot:

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    error = getattr(error, "original", error)
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
        pass

[vale pendant]

@bot.command(name="blah")
async def _blah(ctx):
   #do stuff

@_blah.error
async def _blah_error(ctx,error):
  if isintance(error,commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
      await ctx.send("Usage: !blah")```

@slate swan

[final iron]

Would it only respond to this command or all commands?

[wise prairie]

all commands, if you want for a specific command you'll need to do like ritz suggested

hey Ritz, where do you host your bot?

or is it not big enough to host proper

[vale pendant]

I host locally, not big enough yet.

[wise prairie]

ah, fair enough

[vale pendant]

Not big enough to the point where I want to pay for it.

[proven elm]

getting a "bots cannot use this endpoint" error when tryna get mutual friends

[wise prairie]

yea yea, I'm in the state where I gotta host. Contabo worked for a bit but they've been unreliable

[wise prairie]

that's because bots unfortunately can't access mutual friends iirc.

[vale pendant]

Yeah if you want a good hosting you have to pay for it.

[final iron]

Would this work inside a cog?

[vale pendant]

No.

[wise prairie]

I did, they're still pretty shit for something I pay for. Though I pay way under average so that's part of it

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'isintance' is not defined

[vale pendant]

I spelled it wrong

[proven elm]

whats the point in it being there then?

[slate swan]

ya i corrected it

[vale pendant]

isinstance

[wise prairie]

they typo'd, it's isInstance

[slate swan]

ohhh

[wise prairie]

to tease us?

[final iron]

How would I make the equivalent work inside a cog?

[wise prairie]

Why do bots have message content if discord is just gonna remove our access to it >_>

[somber musk]

They wanna fuck with us and mess around

[vale pendant]

change bot.command to commands.command, put self in both the command and error handler.

[somber musk]

Lmao that pinged someone

[vale pendant]

shhh

[slate swan]

Does anyone know how I can make a Discord bot with an AI? I was doing a quick research in Machine Learning stuff and I thought to myself "You know what? I need to troll my friends with it".

👀

[wicked atlas]

Welp, that's basically just giving a chatbot access to sending and reading messages

[slate swan]

Thats the point. Honestly I'm new with Python even though i made chatbots or other programms.

[pure reef]

mhm

embed*

async def on_guild_join

no ctx

do yeww want it to send to every server ?

to yeww or a certain channel

for channel in bot.guilds:
await channel.send("stuff stuff")

i believe i kinda took a break from discord for like 7 months so

but i believe that's how it is

[pliant gulch]

This would send it to EVERY channel in the guild

Its in a for-loop
