discord-bots

[slate swan]

no

do the IDs for guilds, roles and users have the same amount of digits?

[hasty iron]

that was a joke

[slate swan]

my question wasn't

[hasty iron]

and yes probably

[slate swan]

267624335836053506
511195913583198218

nah

[soft trout]

i mean

[slate swan]

wait

[soft trout]

did you have to ask here if you knew already

[slate swan]

yes

well that explains a lot to me

how do you make a text channel with a bot

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Guild.create_text_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_text\_channel

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

Creates a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") for the guild.

Note that you need the [`manage_channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_channels "discord.Permissions.manage_channels") permission to create the channel.

The `overwrites` parameter can be used to create a ‘secret’ channel upon creation. This parameter expects a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.9)") of overwrites with the target (either a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")) as the key and a [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite") as the value.

Note

Creating a channel of a specified position will not update the position of other channels to follow suit. A follow-up call to [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.TextChannel.edit "discord.TextChannel.edit") will be required to update the position of the channel in the channel list...

[slate swan]

With 18, but for some reason if one of them needs one more digit, the others must go up.

[spark kite]

how can I make it so anyone can message my bot even if they dont share a server with it?

[dapper cobalt]

You can't.

[slate swan]

wouldn't I need guild how would I define guild

[dapper cobalt]

It can be ctx.guild or you can get a guild using bot.get_guild.

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_guild

get_guild(id)```
Returns a guild with the given ID.

[spark kite]

I can't?

[dapper cobalt]

Remember that the bot must have manage_channels permissions.

[dapper cobalt]

Yes. A bot cannot accept friend requests.

The only way a user can dm a user (a bot is considered a user) while they don't share a server with them is to add them as a friend.

[spark kite]

so there's no way to like change settings to accept all dms?

[dapper cobalt]

Nope.

[spark kite]

oh

[covert igloo]

hey how do i put an emoji thats just in one server into my embed

[dapper cobalt]

\:emoji:

[stuck walrus]

Now that discord.py is ceasing development what is a good alternative?

[dapper cobalt]

!pypi disnake it's in beta and very soon will be out. It has the same syntax and also includes slash commands, buttons, user commands, etc.

[unkempt canyon]

disnake v2.1.0

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[dapper cobalt]

!pypi dislash.py is made by the developer of disnake.

[unkempt canyon]

dislash.py v1.4.9

A python wrapper for message components and application commands.

[hasty iron]

cant they just port dislash to disnake

[covert igloo]

ah is that for server only emojis

[hasty iron]

and remove the monkeypatching

[covert igloo]

because when I used the universal, it worked fine

[dapper cobalt]

Yes. If you want a unicode of a normal emoji you can use !charinfo :emoji:.

!charinfo 👋

[unkempt canyon]

Character Info

\U0001f44b: WAVING HAND SIGN - 👋

[covert igloo]

ok ty let me try it

[stuck walrus]

This looks cool/useful, thanks!

[dapper cobalt]

No problem.

[reef trail]

how do you check if a message contains a specific word

if message.contains() ?

[hasty iron]

if str in message.content

[reef trail]

ty

[dapper cobalt]

if "word" in message.content

[reef trail]

appreciate it

@commands.Cog.listener(name='on_message')
async def NoBadWords(self, message):
    if message.guild is None:
        return
    if message.guild.id == 871629438952022076:
        if "BadWord" in message.content:
            await message.author.ban()```
  Would this work? Im pretty sure banning like this doesnt work but feel free to let me know how to do it

[slate swan]

how do you create a webhook inside a chanmel

[covert igloo]

its not sending the in server emoji with the ":emoji:"

is it supposed to be the emoji ID

[flat solstice]

so I have this event for a starboard which works for the most part except it sends a new msg for every user that reacts rather than editing the existing msg. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong so does someone mind pointing out my mistake. here is my code: https://sourceb.in/je3f7lYMNw

[slate swan]

hey

someones knows?

sometime its works and somtimes not

[dapper cobalt]

I suggest making it check in the lower case of the message.content (message.content.lower()).

[slate swan]

i didnt anderstand the problume

[dapper cobalt]

Full traceback?

[slate swan]

what?

[dapper cobalt]

\ without the space will be !python

[dapper cobalt]

The full error.

[slate swan]

send

[dapper cobalt]

You send it..

[slate swan]

here it is

[covert igloo]

can inserver emojis be used in title

[dapper cobalt]

Embed title?

[covert igloo]

yes

[dapper cobalt]

Let me have a look.

[covert igloo]

someone told me it doesnt work in titles

[hasty iron]

yes it doesn’t

[dapper cobalt]

It does.

[hasty iron]

huh

[soft trout]

AYO

[covert igloo]

ah thank you

[dapper cobalt]

No problem.

[hasty iron]

that’s a modified discord client isn’t it?

[soft trout]

THATS KINDA SUS

[slate swan]

its didnt be befor

its like 1-2 days ago

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah, but I use it just for the theme.

[hasty iron]

that could be why it works

[soft trout]

!e

[unkempt canyon]

Command Help

!eval [code]
Can also use: e

*Run Python code and get the results.

This command supports multiple lines of code, including code wrapped inside a formatted code
block. Code can be re-evaluated by editing the original message within 10 seconds and
clicking the reaction that subsequently appears.

We've done our best to make this sandboxed, but do let us know if you manage to find an
issue with it!*

[hasty iron]

also they’re all against ToS

[dapper cobalt]

I'm aware of that. However, I don't do anything harmful or stupid with it, so I should be clear.

I only give my eyes a better experience, and that doesn't bother anyone, does it?

[bronze wigeon]

Discord cares if you use plugins that let you see certain things / do certain things you shouldn't, other than that if you use themes they could't care less

I'm agreeing with you btw^

[slate swan]

someone knows?

[dapper cobalt]

I'm not sure what package is that, but I think that "ZeroNodesConnected" means that whatever you are doing requires nodes and there are none connected.

[hasty iron]

we cant help with anything involving lavalink

[dapper cobalt]

Oh that's lavalink?

!ytdl

[unkempt canyon]

Per Python Discord's Rule 5, we are unable to assist with questions related to youtube-dl, pytube, or other YouTube video downloaders as their usage violates YouTube's Terms of Service.

[hasty iron]

wavelink is a wrapper for it

[stray path]

What's lavalink?

[hasty iron]

a music player specifically made for discord bots

[stray path]

Oh ok

[dapper cobalt]

Yes. And it violates YouTube's ToS since it downloads audio from videos.

[soft trout]

is that why groovy is ending its service

[hasty iron]

yes

[stray path]

Yes

[dapper cobalt]

Yep.

[dapper cobalt]

You can't use markdown in an embed's title.

[bronze wigeon]

Says who?

[covert igloo]

wdym

[bronze wigeon]

I've used it before

It works fine..

[soft trout]

AYO

[dapper cobalt]

Does it?

[bronze wigeon]

Yeah

[hasty iron]

no you cant

you cant have markdown in titles

[bronze wigeon]

Huh, then how'd I use it?

[hasty iron]

unless you have a modified client

[dapper cobalt]

It does.

[covert igloo]

what should i change the title to to contain the emoji

[dapper cobalt]

Embeds are weird.

[hasty iron]

you have a modified client

[covert igloo]

why is mine not working

[hasty iron]

we’re talking about normal discord

[dapper cobalt]

I don't think that matters...

[stray path]

What do you mean by this.

[bronze wigeon]

It doesn't

[hasty iron]

it does normally it shouldn’t work

[stray path]

I didn't touch my discord.py in anyway other than installing it, and I can put emojis in my title

[dapper cobalt]

I will check it on Discord from the web.

[bronze wigeon]

He doesn't have any plugins to affect the client to my knowledge

Only a theme

which uses CSS, not JS

[dapper cobalt]

It does.

[hasty iron]

what

since when??

[covert igloo]

@bronze wigeon what should i change my title to

[soft trout]

thats kind of sus

[covert igloo]

to include the emoji

rn it just prints the name of the emoji

[hasty iron]

@covert igloo does it work for you

[soft trout]

I need to test this theory

[covert igloo]

let me try it

[bronze wigeon]

Are they in the server..?

The bot may need to be in the server(s)

[covert igloo]

the emoji? yes

its my test server

[bronze wigeon]

Hm

[vale pendant]

Normal discord client.

This is the discord browser.

[soft trout]

@hasty iron AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

IT ACTUALLY WORKS

[hasty iron]

what about emotes

wtf

[vale pendant]

Haven't tried it out.

[dapper cobalt]

It does for me.

[reef trail]

ah yes, thank you

[covert igloo]

its not working for me

[vale pendant]

Same here.

[bronze wigeon]

It's because it's in bold, I believe

Maybe

Idrk

[forest blade]

Try it in the description and not the title

[covert igloo]

not sure why it isnt working for me

[dapper cobalt]

Discord is really weird.. try seeing it on the web? Maybe you are missing an update. I'm not sure.

[reef trail]

@commands.Cog.listener(name='on_message')
async def AutoBanNWord(self, message):
    if message.guild is None:
        return
    if message.guild.id == 871629438952022076:
        if "BadWord" in message.content.lower():
            reason = "[AutoBan] Racism / Hard R"
            await message.author.guild.ban(reason=reason)
        ```
 Does this look good?

[vale pendant]

Emojis work too.

[covert igloo]

wtf

[hasty iron]

i could swear this didnt work before

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah, but just make sure that the string you are looking for in the message.content.lower() is also in lowercase.

[hasty iron]

it must be some new thing

[dapper cobalt]

Well, yes it didn't work before.

[reef trail]

yep of course

[hasty iron]

that’s why i was confused

[reef trail]

Cant put the actual word i want to be autobanned

you get what i mean

[soft trout]

ok so emojis do actually work on titles?

[dapper cobalt]

Lmao gotcha.

[visual island]

Is your emoji animated btw?

[covert igloo]

no it isnt

doesnt work in description either

[dapper cobalt]

Try another emoji.

[visual island]

probably the ID is wrong

[dapper cobalt]

Then you probably got the ID wrong.

[vale pendant]

Is your bot in the same server as the emoji?

[covert igloo]

ok let me try it

[covert igloo]

yes

[visual island]

Note: you can't directly copy the id of an emoji from a message

[dapper cobalt]

!Scopes

[covert igloo]

where is it then

i was right clicking the emoji after sending it and copying the ID

[dapper cobalt]

No. Do like in that image.

\ :emoji: and remove the space between :emoji: and \ .

[visual island]

yea put a backlash before it

!potatopopcorn

[dapper cobalt]

I'm actually very interested in seeing the actual emoji.

[dapper cobalt]

Thank you.

[covert igloo]

@dapper cobalt @visual island thank you, it was just an ID issue

[dapper cobalt]

[visual island]

[covert igloo]

this is what i have for unbans rn

it doesnt unban when you use ID

hold on let me try it

[visual island]

typehint it

[dapper cobalt]

Use discord.User.

[covert igloo]

where

[visual island]

you can directly do await member.unban() instead of making 10 lines of code

[dapper cobalt]

 async def unban(self, ctx, user: discord.User):
        try:
            await ctx.guild.unban(discord.Object(id=user.id))
        except:
            return await ctx.send(f"**{user}** is not banned!")

        await ctx.send(f"**{user}** has been unbanned.")

[hasty iron]

why discord.Object

you have a User object

pass that in directly

[dapper cobalt]

It will take an ID, or a username#discriminator

[hasty iron]

?

[dapper cobalt]

Some people don't know how to get an ID.

[reef trail]

How do i check if the message author is the bot

[hasty iron]

in guild.unban you passed in an Object

that isn’t necessary

[dapper cobalt]

if message.author == client.user

[hasty iron]

just pass in the User object directly

[reef trail]

Its in an event

[dapper cobalt]

Oh right. I didn't understand what you meant.

[hasty iron]

Guild.unban takes in an abc.Snowflake

[covert igloo]

why do you have self running through

would it work without it

[dapper cobalt]

I don't know why I use it, I just like it there,

[dapper cobalt]

Yes.

[covert igloo]

ok

[dapper cobalt]

Because that's a class.

[dapper cobalt]

I was replying to @hasty iron btw.

[reef trail]

ah ty

[dapper cobalt]

[covert igloo]

i realize

[dapper cobalt]

I just yoinked the code from my bot.

[hasty iron]

no reason argument lolololoollol so bad

[dapper cobalt]

Imagine unbanning for a reason.

[hasty iron]

yeah true

[reef trail]

@commands.Cog.listener(name='on_message')
async def AutoBanNWord(self, message):
    if message.guild is None:
        return
    if message.guild.id == 871629438952022076:
        if "badword" in message.content.lower():
            reason = "[AutoBan] Racism / Hard R"
            me = self.bot.get_user(101118549958877184)
            other = self.bot.get_channel(873078748847669259)
            try:
                await message.author.send(f"You have been banned from {message.guild.name} for being a racist.")
            except:
                pass
            await message.author.guild.ban(reason=reason)
            if message.author == self.bot.user:
                return
            else:
                await me.send(f"{message.author.name} was just banned in {message.guild.name}\n**Message Content**{message.content}")
                await other.send(f"{message.author.name} was just banned from this server for being racist {me.mention}")```
 Would this completely ignore its self? i may be overthinking this but i really dont wanna fuck anything up lmao

[hasty iron]

you can just check if the author is a bot or not

at the beginning of your code

[reef trail]

ah

[dapper cobalt]

Put the if message.author == self.bot.user at the top.

[reef trail]

you're right

Yep

Thanks guys

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah as blanket said.

No problem.

[reef trail]

Its been a while since ive made anything automated using on_message events

[dapper cobalt]

@hasty iron How's the progress on your discord.py fork?

[hasty iron]

that was an accidental fork

some time ago

[dapper cobalt]

Understandable.

[reef trail]

How can i ignore a whole channel category?

like

if message.category.id == ID:
    return```
 would it work like this?

[dapper cobalt]

category = self.bot.get_channel(category ID)
if message.channel in category.text_channels:
  return

[reef trail]

ahh

[dapper cobalt]

Does a discord.Message object have a category attribute?

[reef trail]

no idea

it does not

[visual island]

message.channel.category.id

[dapper cobalt]

How could I forget about that.

[covert igloo]

yoink me a mute and unmute rq og 💀

[reef trail]

ty

[dapper cobalt]

I use a mongo database for that tho.

[visual island]

[dapper cobalt]

I store mutes so if a user rejoins they would get muted again too.

[covert igloo]

oo

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah, pretty advanced stuff.

I was super surprised when it worked tbh.

[covert igloo]

will do it eventually

but rn i just need it to assign the role

[visual island]

why do everyone uses Mongo tho..

[dapper cobalt]

I didn't see any bot that has that, so I didn't have hope to be the first one to do it.

[dapper cobalt]

It looks pretty cool and easy to remotely control.

[visual island]

it isn't async isn't it

[dapper cobalt]

!pypi motor

[unkempt canyon]

motor v2.5.1

Non-blocking MongoDB driver for Tornado or asyncio

[visual island]

oh

[dapper cobalt]

(I don't use motor, but I make async functions myself)

how would i write "user =" and then a mentioned user

like for a userinfo command

[dapper cobalt]

On line 331, I assume that stared_message.reactions.count returns an integer, and you are trying to get the len() of an integer?

[covert igloo]

user = member.mention

 how could i do this properly lmfao, im trying to print all of the channels under the category

[dapper cobalt]

I thought it did.. Well, I will move to motor eventually. Thanks for the info.

[crude crater]

word, thanks

[covert igloo]

[crude crater]

thats kinda what i thought but im autistic so i couldnt think lmao

[visual island]

.count()

[covert igloo]

so am i lmao

[visual island]

but yeah it already returns int

[crude crater]

twins, lmaooooo

[dapper cobalt]

A love story is about to start, I guess.

[crude crater]

LMFAO

[covert igloo]

it is

lol

[reef trail]

anyone?

[covert igloo]

@dapper cobalt how can i get the bot to send a ban dm to the user thats banned

[flat solstice]

it's a bit of a rabbit hole tbh. discord.Message returns a list of reactions. each reaction then has it's own count of how mnay times it apears

[dapper cobalt]

Send it before banning.

[crude crater]

i gotchu

[flat solstice]

okay thanks I'll try this

[crude crater]

ill send u my code

[covert igloo]

plug

[crude crater]

!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.

[dapper cobalt]

count = 0
for reaction in message.reactions:
  count += reaction.count()

I think this would work? I never tried this.

[crude crater]

await member.send(f"You were muted in the server {guild.name} for {reason}")

whoops

await member.send(f"You were muted in the server {guild.name} for {reason}")

[dapper cobalt]

Is it guild or ctx.guild?

[crude crater]

well it says muted but just changed it to banned

[dapper cobalt]

Do you have guild defined?

[crude crater]

no, its just guild

its not ctx.guild broski

[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.

[dapper cobalt]

You can check for the CategoryChannel object's attributes there.

[covert igloo]

yea it aint work for me with just guilded

[dapper cobalt]

Guilded..?

[crude crater]

try what he's saying then

[dapper cobalt]

That's Discord.

[crude crater]

yk what he meant lol

[covert igloo]

guild i mean

[crude crater]

try ctx.guild

[covert igloo]

ok

[crude crater]

import discord
import asyncio
import random
import keep_alive
import json
import os
import re

[dapper cobalt]

from discord.ext import commands

[crude crater]

if you put that at the top of allllllll of your code then it should automatically define guild

[crude crater]

from discord.ext import commands

[dapper cobalt]

What?

[crude crater]

i put that too

[covert igloo]

i didnt have guild defined

[crude crater]

yes

[covert igloo]

thats why it wasnt working

[dapper cobalt]

I called it.

[crude crater]

it should at least 🤷‍♂️

[crude crater]

im glad

[covert igloo]

its good now i think

let me go test it

[crude crater]

i honestly dont know how i defined guild so i apologize for that

[dapper cobalt]

Where did you define it?

guild = ctx.guild?

[crude crater]

but when you do the "import discord" im ALMOST certain that it defines it

[crude crater]

no

[bitter perch]

Back up.
What is going on here?

[dapper cobalt]

You can highlight "guild" and see where you defined it.

[dapper cobalt]

They're saying that import discord will automatically define guild.

[crude crater]

i said i think nowhere did i say it does lol

[dapper cobalt]

import discord

@bot.command()
async def guildname(ctx):
  await ctx.send(guild.name)

[crude crater]

and by "they" you mean me

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah, I didn't want to assume your gender.

[crude crater]

LMFAO

word

[covert igloo]

@crude crater ayo u got mute and unmute fo me 💀

[crude crater]

like as in you're asking?

because if you are then yeah ofc lmao

[covert igloo]

i gotchu bro

!code

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.

[covert igloo]

jesus im so lazy

dm it

[crude crater]

or not

[crude crater]

this is the unmute

[vale pendant]

Both mute commands could be better.

[visual yarrow]

Where can I find documentation for different versions of the Discord API?

[crude crater]

why?

[dapper cobalt]

That's more basic but simpler.

[vale pendant]

You'll realize when people start using the command.

[dapper cobalt]

Oh don't make me send my bot's mute command.

[vale pendant]

I could send mine too.

[covert igloo]

show me lmfao

[crude crater]

bro nobody cares, i dont mean to be rude but like seriously

[dapper cobalt]

Bet.

[crude crater]

ugh

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @dapper cobalt!

It looks like you tried to attach a Python file - please use a code-pasting service such as https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[vale pendant]

It does matter though.

[crude crater]

LMAO

[dapper cobalt]

Damnit.

[covert igloo]

ong as long as it works idc

[dapper cobalt]

One second.

[covert igloo]

lol

[vale pendant]

Dm's

[visual yarrow]

Use the paste service please:

!paste

[crude crater]

yes

[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]

@vale pendant https://paste.pythondiscord.com/aguhojuxes.py

[covert igloo]

can u dm it to me

[hasty iron]

don’t think there is

[dapper cobalt]

That's my mute command.

[covert igloo]

so i have it

[dapper cobalt]

190 lines.

[vale pendant]

I'll send mine.

[covert igloo]

dog what

[dapper cobalt]

Hold, that's the mute and unmute, I didn't realize.

[crude crater]

and you say this when mine does what its supposed to, it mutes them and then sends a message to the channel and them

[visual yarrow]

Ah no, really?

[crude crater]

useless

[covert igloo]

190 lines for a mute comand???

[dapper cobalt]

151*

[crude crater]

151 for a mute command is wasting your time lmfaooo

[dapper cobalt]

Read the code.

[crude crater]

its literally for a MUTE

[vale pendant]

@dapper cobalt https://paste.pythondiscord.com/iyocaxutit.less

[dapper cobalt]

Advanced.

[hasty iron]

what do you need it for

[covert igloo]

@crude crater dm me the mute and unmte

[dapper cobalt]

The heck is this?

[crude crater]

its a discord bot 🤣

[vale pendant]

?

[dapper cobalt]

Advanced discord bot.

[crude crater]

and?

[dapper cobalt]

You could make it better.

[crude crater]

how much money do you make off of your discord bot?

[dapper cobalt]

Better than normal.

[vale pendant]

Don't want it timed.

[dapper cobalt]

I don't make money from my public bot, but I make from making custom bots.

[vale pendant]

• I already have logs for muted command.

[crude crater]

yikesss

[dapper cobalt]

I didn't add premium features yet.

Let me check my paypal.

[visual yarrow]

Erm, just trying some stuff out. Making some HTTP requests. I'm finding that I get back json with fields that are not in the docs. But it's not clear to me which version of the API those docs document.

[vale pendant]

Nor do I care about people having their own mute role.

[crude crater]

bro i dont mean to be rude but you're cringe asf

[crude crater]

exactly

[visual yarrow]

@crude crater That is actually quite rude.

[hasty iron]

well iirc sometimes the docs aren’t accurate and it takes some time for them to update

[dapper cobalt]

I was going to show you how much I made since you've brought that up.

[hasty iron]

arent always*

[crude crater]

i dont wanna see, idc

[covert igloo]

@crude crater does ur mute have a timer

[vale pendant]

• the bot that I made is strictly for anti-nuke.

[covert igloo]

or do you need to unmute manually

[dapper cobalt]

Okay then.

[crude crater]

no, i was thinking about putting it in but my bots only been made for like 2 days

i do have a tempban though

so ill just do the same thing with that but with the mute

[visual yarrow]

Ah right. Thanks anyway. I'll probably go and bother the people in the API server now 😄

[covert igloo]

does it just take away viewing that channel

or any channels for that matter

[crude crater]

it makes it to where they cant type

they can still view but cant type

[covert igloo]

when i used it, it removed the person i muted from the channel list

like you couldnt see them in the right

[crude crater]

you also have to fix the perms in your server

[covert igloo]

i did read_messages=True

[dapper cobalt]

Then they didn't have send messages permissions nor read messages.

[covert igloo]

fixed read messages

[covert igloo]

what perms do u have it as

[dapper cobalt]

What about view_channel?

[crude crater]

idk ill have to look

[crude crater]

you dont need to do it in code lmfao

you can just do it in the discord server

in the role perms

[dapper cobalt]

!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").

[dapper cobalt]

You can do it in both code and through the server.

[crude crater]

its easier to do it in the server

[final iron]

Are there any good alternative Reddit API wrappers from asyncpraw

[dapper cobalt]

!pypi reddit-easy

[crude crater]

doing it in code just clutters stuff more when you can just click a button

[unkempt canyon]

Not in a million years.

Package could not be found.

[dapper cobalt]

!pypi redditeasy

[unkempt canyon]

redditeasy v3.6.2

RedditEasy is an API wrapper for getting posts using the Reddit JSON API with both sync and async options

[dapper cobalt]

So does send messages and read messages tho.

[crude crater]

what?

[dapper cobalt]

You can set the send_messages and read_messages from the server too.

[covert igloo]

@crude crater i have read_messages=True but it still is removing them from the channel member list

[crude crater]

thats why im saying do it through the role perms

[dapper cobalt]

Check if the role has access to the channels.

[covert igloo]

channel perm or actual role perm

[crude crater]

both

[dapper cobalt]

Channel permissions.

[covert igloo]

the role has view channel

ok i think its fixed

was missing channel perms

[flat solstice]

so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong but every time a new user reacts on a msg that is already stared it sends the msg to the starboard again. I want it to only send to the starboard once and then every other time it should update the footer of the first msg. this is my code https://sourceb.in/rLvSvU6yRd

[manic wing]

@hasty iron

are you alive

can you help me pwease

[dapper cobalt]

Don't ask to ask, just ask.

[manic wing]

im asking blanket, because blankets a friend and i know he will be able to help

[dapper cobalt]

I'm sorry but that seems a little too complicated so I can't help you.

final_object is a task

[manic wing]

how?

[hasty iron]

no clue, check your function that returns it

[manic wing]

filter_id returns it and its been breaking

[hasty iron]

send code for that

[manic wing]

its in the code above

[hasty iron]

oh its there

whats asyncSlot

[manic wing]

i print(user) and it shows my name, i return user, it prints the x but not the e, is there some voodoo shit where it cant return in a try except or smthing?

[manic wing]

async pyqt5 stuff

its not really relevant

[hasty iron]

that could be it

[manic wing]

i dont think so

would it be?

[hasty iron]

you dont return a task anywhere in your function

[manic wing]

its worked fine for everything else

[hasty iron]

oh wait

you didn’t await it

thats the issue

[manic wing]

i didnt await what?

[hasty iron]

filter_id

in trigger_message

[manic wing]

oh fuck

yea

well at least it gave a different error this time lol

blanket it gives this error even without the #await final_object.send(self.message_edit.text if self.message_edit.text else 'Hello')

final_object = await self.filter_id()
            print(final_object)
            if final_object:
                print(final_object)

                return
            msg.setText('Invalid id')
            msg.exec_()

``` this raises that error

i think it errors on the msg.setText('Invalid id') msg.exec_()

[flat solstice]

do you mean what I'm attempting to do is complicated or the way I'm doing it is overly complex?

What I am trying to do is listen for a on_raw_reaction_add event which uses one of the reactions in my list of star_reactions. the db will log the following things:

• the ID of the message which was reacted to
• the amount of reactions it has (the inclusive total of each reaction in star_reactions)
• the id of the msg the bot sends to my starboard channel

I then want the footer of the embed the bot sends to show how many stars the msg has (pulled from the db). The bot should edit the msg each time a new star gets added so as the reflect the db value.

Does that make more sense? Do you think i'm on the right track to achieving my aim or have i gone wrong somewhere.

[manic wing]

[hollow hemlock]

how to send a file?

[hot cobalt]

@manic wing Get rid of that bare except, chances are there's another issue you haven't anticipated throwing a different error from the one you expect

[manic wing]

await messageable.send(file=discord.File('path/to/dir'))

[covert igloo]

@dapper cobalt how should i do error messages

[hot cobalt]

Catch whatever specific error you want to catch

[manic wing]

okay

[covert igloo]

like if a command is used wrong

[hollow hemlock]

thanks!

[manic wing]

im rewriting that portion

its bugging me though

[dapper cobalt]

If it stores the message's ID then you can do:

• check if there's already an ID stored that's equal to the message's ID
• generate a unique ID for each "starred message" and store it
• put the generated ID in the embed's footer
• check in the channel's history using the discord.TextChannel.history() and try to see if there's any embed that has the unique ID in its footer
• if you find the embed, you now have the embed's object, edit it

(I'm not very familiar with this, but this is all I could think of at 3 AM)

[dapper cobalt]

try:
  await user.send(embed=embed)
except:
  pass

[crisp pine]

alright

[crisp pine]

Where It Should Go?

[manic wing]

would this be screwing any of it up

the typehint

[dapper cobalt]

Replace await user.send(embed=embed) with that.

[manic wing]

dude what

[hot cobalt]

@manic wing I wouldn't imagine so

!d discord.abc.Messageable

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable

ive been stuck on this for an hour and its killing me

[hot cobalt]

What's self.id_edit.text() returning

[manic wing]

an str

i spent 10 minutes with it erroring because i didnt put the (), i thought it was a property :/

[flat solstice]

aren't channel history searches limited to within the last 14 days or am i crossing wires with something else

[covert igloo]

@dapper cobalt how do i make error message og

[crisp pine]

Thanks @dapper cobalt

[hot cobalt]

!d discord.Client.get_user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.get\_user

get_user(id)```
Returns a user with the given ID.

[hot cobalt]

Would get_user() throw an error if _id isn't an int?

[manic wing]

fetch_user raises error

[manic wing]

yes, but im not getting a typeerror

[hot cobalt]

Or, would it just return None

[manic wing]

but both

print(self.bot.get_user(298043305927639041))
            print(await self.bot.fetch_user(298043305927639041))
``` these both print my user object

its something whack with the returns

[hot cobalt]

It's not being given an int

[dapper cobalt]

I'm not sure, but you can try and see if it's in the last 100 messages and if it isn't then just send it again.

can someone help the command gives no error but the bot would not reply

[dapper cobalt]

No problem.

[dapper cobalt]

Error message og?

[flat solstice]

okay thanks for clarification

[hot cobalt]

return self.bot.get_user(int(_id)) I would imagine you'd want to give it an int, if it's not throwing an error otherwise I can only assume that discord.py tries to convert it for you, or it just decides to return None

So it's worth a shot

[manic wing]

i made it an int and it worked - do returns not work inside try's and except's? it was int before i think

it was int before and still didnt work

[hot cobalt]

They do

Holdon lemme look at the try except again

[covert igloo]

error message that shows how to use a command

lets say someone does ".mute @..." without a reason

it would pop up saying they need to have a reason

[dapper cobalt]

Similar to this?

[covert igloo]

yes

[lyric moat]

Anyone :(

[dapper cobalt]

To get the command's name you can use ctx.command and for the missing argument you can use error.missing_params.name.

[covert igloo]

ok ill try it

[lyric moat]

can someone help the command gives no error but the bot would not reply

[manic wing]

ctx.command.name

[lyric moat]

@dapper cobalt can u help?

[dapper cobalt]

ctx.command will be the parent and the command, ctx.command.name will only be the command. So if it has a parent it would be better to show it.

[manic wing]

you said 'To get the command's name' - the command's name would be

ctx.command.name

[dapper cobalt]

Oh right, my bad.

[lyric moat]

can anyone help?

[dapper cobalt]

But I meant if it's something like this, ctx.command.name will be only "add" and not "filter add".

[hot cobalt]

@manic wing Not entirely sure why the previous version went wrong, in the future try to avoid having bare excepts, since it makes it a lot easier to locate unexpected issues

[dapper cobalt]

Sorry but I'm not very familiar with activities.

how can I create a new webhook

[manic wing]

await channel.create_webhook

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.TextChannel.create_webhook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.create\_webhook

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

Creates a webhook for this channel.

Requires [`manage_webhooks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_webhooks "discord.Permissions.manage_webhooks") permissions.

Changed in version 1.1: Added the `reason` keyword-only parameter.

[dapper cobalt]

@sweet pilot

[sweet pilot]

ok

thx

[manic wing]

ok so it just gives a really weird error when i use QMessageBox

i can work with that ig

[flint forum]

Is it possible to make an if state ment like this for bots:

@bot.command()
async def choose(ctx):
# here the bot asks a questiona and await for three options test test2 test3

# after that it makes an if statement

#example: if choose==test1
ctx.send("cookie") 

# or like ctx.role(role) which basically gives a person a role ```

and stuff like that

[dapper cobalt]

You can use python statements anywhere.

And what is ctx.role(role)?

[flint forum]

it was just a random example of giving a person a role:)

not rly meant to be real code to use

just an example

[dapper cobalt]

Ah okay. But to give the author a role it's ctx.author.add_roles(role).

[flint forum]

I just want to make 1 little 2 menu option

[flint forum]

yeah I got that

[flint forum]

and I need help cuz I have no idea how to do that part I said above

I know some of it except the if statements
I haven't gone over those

[dapper cobalt]

print(type(str(reaction.count())) == int)

Try to see if it's a string or an int.

[bitter perch]

count is not a method

[slate swan]

await ctx.send()

[crisp pine]

How do i make my ban command says "you can not ban that person"

[flint forum]

yeah as I said It was just an example

[crisp pine]

like if the try run the ban command on the owner

            await ctx.send(embed=embed)
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
            embed = discord.Embed(color=0x2f3136, title="Mention A User To Get Them **BAN**")
            await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[slate swan]

Make parameters using if elif

[dapper cobalt]

Check if the member is == the guild's owner.

[dapper cobalt]

What?

[crisp pine]

What if its like a user with the same role or higher role

like if "kutie" trys ban an admin

[dapper cobalt]

It doesn't really matter for the bot if the author's role hierarchy is higher or lower than the member's role hierarchy, it depends on the bot's role.

[flint forum]

how do you make a bot send a message and make it await for messages to go on with the code

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.9)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.9)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.9)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[crisp pine]

!ban

[crisp pine]

alright

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Reaction.count

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction.count

Number of times this reaction was made

[crisp pine]

does this work? py if ctx.author.top_role > user.top_role or ctx.author == ctx.guild.owner: if user == ctx.author: return await ctx.send("***:no_entry: You can't softban yourself...***")

[bitter perch]

its an attribute

meaning it's not callable....

[dapper cobalt]

Oh I got you wrong, my bad.

[dapper cobalt]

How is the author's role going to be above their own role?

[flat solstice]

yeah that didn't help, think the error handler is eating it up bc it just keeps returning the TypeError: 'int' object is not callable error

[dapper cobalt]

reaction.count not reaction.count().

As Vaskel said, it's an attribute not a method, so it's not callable.

[flint forum]

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Hi whats your name:")
  if ctx.content.startswith("test1"):
    await ctx.send("Correct")```

I got the bot to send Hi whats your name atleast... @dapper cobalt I did stuff wrong uh I need help

[dapper cobalt]

ctx.content will be starting with [prefix]ifstate.

Use wait_for to make it wait for a message.

[flint forum]

so ctx.wait_for("test"):

[dapper cobalt]

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Hi! What's your name?")
  name = await bot.wait_for("message", check=lambda m: m.author == ctx.author)
  await ctx.send(f"Alright, your name is {name.content}")

[slate swan]

How can I loop in a list/text file?

[dapper cobalt]

for variable in list:

[slate swan]

Oh okay

[dapper cobalt]

I'm not sure how can you loop through a text file.

[slate swan]

The list is in the text file

It's all the bad words

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild

class discord.Guild```
Represents a Discord guild.

This is referred to as a “server” in the official Discord UI.

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

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

`hash(x)` Returns the guild’s hash.

`str(x)` Returns the guild’s name.

[heavy folio]

ty

[flint forum]

so we

1. don't need a variable named "name"and 2. whats the point of py check=lambda m: m.author == ctx.author)?

[dapper cobalt]

wait_for is used to wait for a certain Discord event to happen, you can pass a check kwarg to check for certain things.
In your case, check lambda m: m.author == ctx.author will check if the message author is as same as the author of the command, so if someone sends a message in the middle it won't take their message.

[flint forum]

oo awesome

[ebon island]

Is there a good resource I can look into in terms of methodology for setting server specific custom prefixes?

[covert igloo]

@dapper cobalt do u have an error or warning symbol i can yoink

[dapper cobalt]

If you save prefixes in a database, you can use:

def get_prefix(bot, message):
  # get the prefix of the guild (message.guild)
  return the_prefix

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=get_prefix)

[dapper cobalt]

[covert igloo]

thank you

[dapper cobalt]

[ebon island]

where should that get_prefix be in terms of the file hierarchy?

[dapper cobalt]

Above your bot instance.

[ebon island]

hmm I guess I can just call any method that way if it's imported, I'm going to try that out

thank you Key! ❤️

[dapper cobalt]

Key... Yeah no problem, X!

[sweet pilot]

is it possible to give webhook a color?

[dapper cobalt]

If it sends an embed you can give the embed a color.

!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.

[flint forum]

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
    optionembed = discord.Embed(title='Please choose an option', description="Option 1, Option 2, Option 3", color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=optionembed)

    options = await bot.wait_for("message", check=lambda m: m.author == ctx.author)
    await ctx.send(f"Nice you picked! {options.content}")``` @dapper cobalt

How do I add a statement if it has neither Option 1 Option 2 Or Option 3 It returns Incorrect option as an embed text

[dapper cobalt]

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
    optionembed = discord.Embed(title='Please choose an option', description="Option 1, Option 2, Option 3", color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=optionembed)

  available_options = ["option 1", "option 2", "option 3"]

  def check(msg):
    return msg.author == ctx.author and msg.content in available_options

    options = await bot.wait_for("message", check=check)
    await ctx.send(f"Nice you picked! {options.content}")

[flint forum]

ohh I could have used a list all thattime?

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah you can use Python stuff in Python.

Pretty pythonic, innit?

[ebon island]

How best do I import methods from within a cog Class? Does it require anything to instantiate or can you just call the class eg example = Example() and access a method via example.test() without any modification required?

[flat solstice]

well I'm slowly getting there with this event (I think). The number of stars is now increasing correctly however for some reason it keeps sending the star post each time a new reaction is added. My code: https://sourceb.in/86s5I6Nf0L.

tl;dr: event works however it keeps sending a new msg fir each reaction rather than editing the existing msg

[heavy folio]

hi how do i check my dpy version (not python version)

[flat solstice]

should just be discord.__version__

[heavy folio]

in terminal?

[flint forum]

indeed

[flat solstice]

in a python terminal yes, or you could get your bot to either print it or send it to a channel

[heavy folio]

oh okay

i want to make a command called 8ball but i can't create a variable with a number as the first character, how do i fix this? my code is

[vale pendant]

@bot.command(name="8ball")
async def _8ball(ctx):
  await ctx.send("placeholder")```

[ivory drum]

thanks

[heavy folio]

doesnt work

tried in terminal

[vale pendant]

Type py in terminal

Import discord

Then type discord.__version__

[heavy folio]

ohh tyy

[covert igloo]

how should i indent this for .bbed to work in the else

@dapper cobalt

[vale pendant]

bbed is not defined since you only defined it in the if statement; not the else statement.

[flat solstice]

is there a way to only edit a embeds footer without having to edit the whole embed?

[dapper cobalt]

[covert igloo]

yea im aware

how would i write it so it is defined

[vale pendant]

Like I said, it's only defined in the if statement. You would have to put it in the else statement, just cut it and paste.

else:
  bbed = discord.Embed(...)

  await ctx.send(embed=bbed)```

[covert igloo]

yea got it

[deft hill]

Whats the client.__ for non cog commands?

[patent lark]

you can set the function name to something else, and set aliases in the decorator

[deft hill]

Ive already tried client.command but it didnt work

[dapper cobalt]

What's your bot instance?

[covert igloo]

@vale pendant how would i go deleting a message after a certain amount of time if its an embed

[vale pendant]

You can add delete_after

[patent lark]

deleting the context message?

[dapper cobalt]

delete_after=seconds

[deft hill]

client

[covert igloo]

it just printed it when i tried using that

[patent lark]

the .send() method has a delete_after kwarg

[dapper cobalt]

That's a method btw.

[dapper cobalt]

Have you defined client anywhere else in the same file?

[deft hill]

client = discord.Client()

[dapper cobalt]

And are you trying @client.command or client.command()?

[patent lark]

do not use discord.Client()

[vale pendant]

That's the error right there.

[patent lark]

there’s your issue

[dapper cobalt]

Ah yes.

[patent lark]

use this ,

[deft hill]

How so?

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, help_command=<default-help-command>, description=None, **options)```
Represents a discord bot.

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

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

[dapper cobalt]

It should be client = discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix="prefix").

[deft hill]

Ahhh, thanks.

[flint forum]

what do u use to make it capital and lowercase letters

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
    optionembed = discord.Embed(title='Please choose an option', description="hug", "high5", color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=optionembed)

    available_options = ["hug", "high5"]

    def check(msg):
        return msg.author == ctx.author and msg.content in available_options

    options = await bot.wait_for("message", check=check)
    pickedembed = discord.Embed(title=f"Nicely done you have chosen:", description=f"{options.content}",
                                color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=pickedembed)```

because I can't have hug and high5 together since its in avaliable_options

[ivory drum]

why is this giving me "invalid syntax"? (it's in a list defined by answers = [list here])

[dapper cobalt]

str.lower() and str.upper().

[flint forum]

so

[dapper cobalt]

!e

print("heLLo ThErE".lower())
print("heLLo ThErE".upper())

[unkempt canyon]

@dapper cobalt :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | hello there

[flint forum]

so..

hmm I wanted to bypass it from giving me this error: optionembed = discord.Embed(title='Please choose an option', description="hug", "high5", color=c.purple())
^
SyntaxError: positional argument follows keyword argument

[vagrant brook]

What is "high5"

[ivory drum]

nvm apparently it was the ide being weird, a restart fixed it

[flint forum]

It's just an option

like high five!

just a shortcut

[vagrant brook]

Then why did you put it in a separate parameter

[flint forum]

Wdym

[vagrant brook]

It's not in description or title

[flint forum]

its in desc?

im so damn confused what are you saying rn

[vagrant brook]

Oh, your description is just "hug"

[flint forum]

yes

[vagrant brook]

"high5" is separated

[flint forum]

yes

[vagrant brook]

That's the error

[flint forum]

oh ok

[oak solar]

hey this is supposed to send a message to my friend when he messages

it does nothing tho

that id is right click copied on his user

[dapper cobalt]

Add an else statement to print the message.author.id.

[oak solar]

trying it rn

[keen talon]

lol that is like a spam bot

[maiden hazel]

yea

[dapper cobalt]

Oh right, I completely forgot, that's considered API abuse.

[flint forum]

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
    optionembed = discord.Embed(title='Please choose an option', description="hug, high 5", color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=optionembed)

    available_options = ["hug", "high 5"]

    def check(msg):
        return msg.author == ctx.author and msg.content in available_options

    options = await bot.wait_for("hug", check=check)
    hugembed = discord.Embed(title=f"Nicely done you have chosen:", description=f"{options.content}",
                                color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=hugembed)

    options = await bot.wait_for("high 5", check=check)
    high5embed = discord.Embed(title=f"Nicely done you have chosen:", description=f"{options.content}",
                                color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=high5embed)```

I tried to make it 2 different options

[oak solar]

this did nothing

[dapper cobalt]

wait_for("hug")?

[oak solar]

idk if i have a wrong client token

[flint forum]

how would I make it check for hug and high 5

[dapper cobalt]

"hug" isn't an event.

[keen talon]

no we can't help u for that

[flint forum]

meaning if the user sends hug

[dapper cobalt]

It's wait_for("event").

[oak solar]

how come

[maiden hazel]

do u get any errors?

[flint forum]

but how would i seperate it from 2 things

[dapper cobalt]

It's API abuse.

[flint forum]

2 options

[oak solar]

nope

[keen talon]

that is a spam bot

[oak solar]

oh but were really good friends hes watching me do it

[flint forum]

huh?

[oak solar]

i was just curious if it works

i wasnt trying to spam anyone

[dapper cobalt]

Still, it's API abuse.

[oak solar]

Ah, my bad guys. ill read up on that

[keen talon]

[flint forum]

@dapper cobalt anyways back to my thingy how would I separate it with 2 options if the user sends hug it returns that embed text if the user returns high 5 it returns the other embed

[keen talon]

lol what is a hug in dpy

[dapper cobalt]

hug and high 5 aren't discord events tho?

wait_for waits for events only.
Examples:
wait_for("message")
wait_for("reaction_add")
wait_for("member_ban")

[vagrant brook]

I mean you can just read until someone sends "hug" or "high 5"

[maiden hazel]

is it a slash command with the options "hug" and "high 5"?

[vast juniper]

what is high5

[flint forum]

nope

High 5 is an option mah god

[flint forum]

ITS JUST AN OPTION come on nowWW

Just a simple text

[flint forum]

so I can do wait_for("message": "the message here??")

is that a possibility

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.9)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.9)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.9)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[dapper cobalt]

Read that.

[flint forum]

got it

[dapper cobalt]

Click on the title.

It has 2 examples.

[flint forum]

I'm reading it alr

 def check(m):
            return m.content == 'hello' and m.channel == channel

        msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)
        await channel.send('Hello {.author}!'.format(msg))``` "hello" basically is the message being waited

I'm guessing

[dapper cobalt]

It checks if the content of the message is "hello", correct.

You can check if the message content is inside a list ["hug", "high 5"].

[flint forum]

can I make 2 lists and make it check for that?

[covert igloo]

@dapper cobalt how do i add a command cooldown

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

discord.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=<BucketType.default: 0>)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.on_command_error "discord.on_command_error") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[dapper cobalt]

bot.wait_for("high 5")..?

[flint forum]

oops

[dapper cobalt]

bot.wait_for("message")

[flint forum]

sorry my bad

yes yes thats my mistake

[dapper cobalt]

Why did you make 2 lists each one for a single option?

You can make one list available_options = ["high 5", "hug"].

And make one check to check if the content is in available_options.

[flint forum]

well because I didn't really want the same stuff

because for high 5

I would add an image with someone high 5ing

and hug someone hugging

an embed image with text

[dapper cobalt]

@bot.command()
async def ifstate(ctx):
    optionembed = discord.Embed(title='Please choose an option', description="hug, high 5", color=c.purple())
    await ctx.send(embed=optionembed)

    available_options = ["hug", "high 5"]
    
    def check(msg):
        return msg.author == ctx.author and msg.content in available_options

    options = await bot.wait_for("message", check=check)
    if options.content == "hugh":
      hugembed = discord.Embed(title=f"Nicely done you have chosen:", description=f"{options.content}", color=c.purple())
      await ctx.send(embed=hugembed)
    if options.content == "high 5":
      high5embed = discord.Embed(title=f"Nicely done you have chosen:", description=f"{options.content}", color=c.purple())
      await ctx.send(embed=high5embed)

[pliant gulch]

Wouldnt it be better to make a mapping of all the choices?

[dapper cobalt]

I don't usually spoonfeed but my brain cannot really explain things at this time.

[pliant gulch]

I.e ```py
CHOICES = {"hug": "hug link", "high 5": "high five link"}

if choice in CHOICES:
....return CHOICES[choice]

[dapper cobalt]

Yeah, you can do that.

{"hug": hugembed, "high 5": high5embed}

[flint forum]

It would be easier but my brain can't handle that rn

that's the result rn

[dapper cobalt]

You could make a hug command and a high5 command btw.

[flint forum]

Ik but I just wanted to do a little fun menu

This could be used for help a custom help later on!

[dapper cobalt]

Hmm. Fair enough.

[flint forum]

I'm not such a pro with discord.py but I'm trying my best here!

[dapper cobalt]

Please don't use wait_for in help commands. Trust me it's not a good idea.

[flint forum]

your suggestion?

[dapper cobalt]

You can use reactions or buttons.

[flint forum]

yeah that's a good idea

although I need to learn that soon

[dapper cobalt]

You can subclass it too.

[pliant gulch]

reactions use wait_for though

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand

class discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand(**options)```
The base implementation for help command formatting.

Note

Internally instances of this class are deep copied every time the command itself is invoked to prevent a race condition mentioned in [GH-2123](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/2123).

This means that relying on the state of this class to be the same between command invocations would not work as expected.

[dapper cobalt]

I meant waiting for messages.

I should get some sleep, right? Wrong.

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Embed.set_footer

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

something _addfooter or sum

ah

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Embed you can look at it yourself.

[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.

its not

thats what im trying to figure

Since you are using random.choice then I think determine_flip is a list that contains two integers, 1 and 2, right?

right

Hey, yall. Just wanted to drop in to show you guys a really cool resource I found:

[broken turtle]

ok found a bug

it only lands on tails

@dapper cobalt

[dapper cobalt]

if random.choice(determined_flip) == 1:

[broken turtle]

changing to that rn

to see if it works

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.is_nsfw

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.is\_nsfw

discord.ext.commands.is_nsfw()```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that checks if the channel is a NSFW channel.

This check raises a special exception, [`NSFWChannelRequired`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NSFWChannelRequired "discord.ext.commands.NSFWChannelRequired") that is derived from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`NSFWChannelRequired`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NSFWChannelRequired "discord.ext.commands.NSFWChannelRequired") instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure"). DM channels will also now pass this check.

[ivory drum]

wouldn't it be easier to do py @bot.command() async def coinflip(ctx): if random.randint(0, 1) == 0: embed = discord.Embed(title = "Coinflip", description = f"{ctx.author.mention} flipped a coin and got **heads**!") await ctx.send(embed = Embed) else: embed = discord.Embed(title = "Coinflip", description = f"{ctx.author.mention} flipped a coin and got **tails**!") await ctx.send(embed = Embed) so you don't need to use a list?

@dapper cobalt how do i add date and time to footer

[broken turtle]

it works

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Embed.timestamp

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.timestamp

The timestamp of the embed content. This could be a naive or aware datetime.

[ivory drum]

the problem is, i want the command to work outside of nsfw channels but only with a specific set of responses and using this will only allow it to run in nsfw channels (i think)

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.TextChannel.is_nsfw

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.is\_nsfw

is_nsfw()```
[`bool`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.9)"): Checks if the channel is NSFW.
