i don't understand😫

tyvm!

[wispy sequoia]

example help command by my bot

@client.command()
async def help(ctx):
    helpEmbed = discord.Embed(title="Commands", color=0x000000)
    helpEmbed.add_field(
        name="#help", value="Shows this message.", inline=False)
    helpEmbed.add_field(
        name="#ping", value="Returns bot's latency.", inline=False)
    helpEmbed.add_field(
        name="#purge", value="Purges a certain amount of messages. Default is 5. Define the number of messages after `#purge` declaration.", inline=False)
    helpEmbed.add_field(
        name="#join (aliases: connect, come)", value="Makes the bot connect to a vocal channel.", inline=False)
    helpEmbed.add_field(
        name="#leave (aliases: disconnect, fuckoff)", value="Disconnects the bot from a voice channel.", inline=False)
    await ctx.reply(embed=helpEmbed, mention_author=False)```

[slate swan]

THANKS

[wispy sequoia]

np

if u need a footer

the footer is a small text under the embed

[maiden fable]

@wispy sequoia the help command is bad

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.commands use this and loop through it

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.commands

commands```
A unique set of commands without aliases that are registered.

[slate swan]

@wispy sequoia Let's not copy paste the code and spoonfeed, also this isn't the best way to make help command

[maiden fable]

Indeed

[wispy sequoia]

embed.set_footer(text="")

[slate swan]

Just tell Subclassed HelpCommand

[maiden fable]

Me who never did that:

[wispy sequoia]

I'm not a pro man I'm just testing

I'm still learning

[slate swan]

That's why we told you about a better way to make one, if you'd like you can implement it

[maiden fable]

Well, I am just tell you... Just adviced u. Either loop through the bot.commands list of subclass helpcommand

!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.

[maiden fable]

U finding the tutorial by Stella?

Ah, thought so

[wispy sequoia]

I disabled the auto help command

[spring flax]

#discord-bots message

[maiden fable]

Aw haha

That's also a good tutorial

[slate swan]

Making api wrapper is pain

[maiden fable]

Indeed

[slate swan]

There's almost 100 endpoints left

[maiden fable]

Only?

(@visual island is also making a wrapper)

[wispy sequoia]

is manage server manage_guild?

[slate swan]

Still need to improve requesting method and handle rate limits

[maiden fable]

Sad

[slate swan]

Not discord btw

[maiden fable]

Mhm

[wispy sequoia]

ty

[slate swan]

Spotify API

[maiden fable]

Oh

I thought it was discord

[steep estuary]

help plz

[maiden fable]

!pypi Spotify

[unkempt canyon]

spotify v0.10.2

spotify.py is an asynchronous API wrapper for Spotify written in Python.

[maiden fable]

.....

[slate swan]

Wait what

[maiden fable]

Question?

[heavy folio]

okay so i have this and i wanna do <t:command_used_time:R> but its giving me this error:

[maiden fable]

Hehe

[steep estuary]

it is not handling the exception everything is working but i want it should show the embed if someone will give wrong input or if someone will use command in wrong way

[heavy folio]

code:

embed= discord.Embed(description=f"Occured on <t:{int(ctx.message.created_at)}:D>", color=discord.Color.random())

[slate swan]

Nvm I'll make one more

[slate swan]

int only accepts integer with different bases

not a datetime object

convert that to posix timestamp

[heavy folio]

then how do i make the ctx.message.created_at into an int

i want to use unix time <t:unix:D>

[frigid badge]

Hey can someone help me , my bot is doing executing commands twice due to these lines of code

async def initialise(): await client.wait_until_ready() client.db = await aiosqlite.connect("expData.db") await client.db.execute("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS guildData (guild_id int, user_id int , exp int, PRIMARY KEY (guild_id, user_id))")

can someone tell me whats wrong ?

i used sqlite3.

[slate swan]

!d datetime.datetime.timestamp

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.timestamp

datetime.timestamp()```
Return POSIX timestamp corresponding to the [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") instance. The return value is a [`float`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/functions.html#float "float") similar to that returned by [`time.time()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/time.html#time.time "time.time").

Naive [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") instances are assumed to represent local time and this method relies on the platform C `mktime()` function to perform the conversion. Since [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") supports wider range of values than `mktime()` on many platforms, this method may raise [`OverflowError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#OverflowError "OverflowError") for times far in the past or far in the future.

For aware [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") instances, the return value is computed as:

```py
(dt - datetime(1970, 1, 1, tzinfo=timezone.utc)).total_seconds()
```   New in version 3.3.

Changed in version 3.6: The [`timestamp()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.timestamp "datetime.datetime.timestamp") method uses the [`fold`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.fold "datetime.datetime.fold") attribute to disambiguate the times during a repeated interval.

[heavy folio]

ohh so i do ctx.message.created_at.timestamp()?

[slate swan]

[heavy folio]

okay ty

[wispy sequoia]

This is the kick command, how to make a no-permessions member know why they can't run the command?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.CheckFaliure

[unkempt canyon]

Not in a million years.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[maiden fable]

Bruh

Anyways it's either MissingPermissions or CheckFaliure exception

[wispy sequoia]

lemme check console

[steep estuary]

:/

[steep estuary]

please someone help :/

[wispy sequoia]

put just except:

maybe it will handle all exceptions

it works fine for me

[steep estuary]

k

[wispy sequoia]

discord.ext.commands.errors.MissingPermissions: You are missing Administrator and Kick Members permission(s) to run this command.

[maiden fable]

Yea

[frigid badge]

Can someone help me please.

[maiden fable]

With?

[steep estuary]

it didn't worked :/

i used sqlite3.

[wispy sequoia]

which error do u want to handle

[maiden fable]

Do u have an on_message?

[steep estuary]

every either value error or bad argument

[frigid badge]

yes

[maiden fable]

Hi

[maiden fable]

R u using bot.event or bot.listen?

[frigid badge]

bot.event

[maiden fable]

Sadly, nope

[steep estuary]

@wispy sequoia :/

[maiden fable]

Hmm, ok

[frigid badge]

wait ill share my whole on event

[frigid badge]

`@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if not message.author.bot:
cursor = await client.db.execute("INSERT OR IGNORE INTO guildData (guild_id, user_id, exp) VALUES (?,?,?)",(message.guild.id, message.author.id, 1))

if cursor.rowcount == 0:
  await client.db.execute("UPDATE guildData SET exp=exp + 1 WHERE guild_id = ? AND user_id = ?", (message.guild.id, message.author.id))

  cur = await client.db.execute("SELECT exp FROM guildData WHERE guild_id = ? AND user_id = ?", (message.guild.id, message.author.id))

  data = await cur.fetchone()
  exp = data[0]
  lvl = math.sqrt(exp) / client.multiplier

  if lvl.is_integer():
    await message.channel.send(f"{message.author.mention} well done! You are now level: {int(lvl)}.")

await client.db.commit()

await client.process_commands(message)`

this is the on_message

hello @tardy lagoon

[slate swan]

This isn't a place to advertise 👀

[steep estuary]

how i can except all exceptions ?

[slate swan]

except:

[steep estuary]

not working :/

[slate swan]

Code?

[steep estuary]

i tried everything

[heavy folio]

wait its giviing me a time which is not my local time which the command was used // its now 1543 for me but in there it says its 2043

[slate swan]

MissingRequiredArgument is not raised inside the callback.

You need to make an error handler for this

[steep estuary]

?

[heavy folio]

unix time should show my current local time

[steep estuary]

how ?

[slate swan]

Dpy raises it itself while calling the callback

[slate swan]

1.7.3?

Make it timezone aware

how can i give an error when the author has permission but their role is lower

[heavy folio]

wdym

[heavy folio]

how

[slate swan]

what discord.py version? 1.7.3?

[steep estuary]

how i can make that ?

[heavy folio]

uhh hold on

[slate swan]

https://vcokltfre.dev/tutorial/12-errors/

[steep estuary]

kk

[heavy folio]

yes 1.7.3

[slate swan]

Maybe ask it in #python-discussion that how to convert a non timezone aware datetime object to utc timezone aware one.. I forget how to

Also not sure what dpy gives as default

Maybe it calculates from your machine clock

[heavy folio]

no it works for account created and joined server but not for this idk why but its fine

yes

[slate swan]

No idea then

[heavy folio]

ctx.message.created_at.timestamp()

[slate swan]

Try aware = pytz.utc.localise(<datetime.datetime>)

[heavy folio]

but i want timestamp

[heavy folio]

okay

[slate swan]

install pytz if you don't have

[heavy folio]

then where do i use the variable

oh okay

[slate swan]

it'll return aware object, now use .timestamp() on the return

One more way ```py
from datetime import timezone
dt = ctx.message.created_at # returns unaware datetime.datetime
dt = dt.replace(tzinfo=timezone.utc) # will update it with an aware object

[lament yew]

Guyz someone can help me?

like not actual help

I just want to know the code for a notification bot for twitch insta and youtube

[slate swan]

Search on top.gg and invite one

[lament yew]

uh bruh well I have made a custom bot and I want to use only that bot in my server

it got almost everything just this bit is

uk difficlut

[slate swan]

Learn how to make one then. There are a lot of wrappers for those apis

[lament yew]

I dont know how to setup the apis

[lament yew]

uh-huh?

[slate swan]

You're already working with an API if you're making a discord bot

[lament yew]

no

am talking bout youtube and twitch api's

[maiden fable]

Error handler

!d discord.on_command_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_command\_error

discord.on_command_error(ctx, error)```
An error handler that is called when an error is raised inside a command either through user input error, check failure, or an error in your own code.

A default one is provided ([`Bot.on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error "discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error")).

[wispy sequoia]

no no no

not a command error

a missing permession

like

Normal user: #kick user
Bot: You don't have enough permessions to do that

[maiden fable]

Whenever a check if failed, it's called a command error only...

[wispy sequoia]

but I want it to send a different embed for when a permession is missing

and also rn it's not sending anything if u miss a perm

this is when I try kick an admin/owner

but if u miss a perm it's not saying anything

[maiden fable]

Can I see the command error handler?

[boreal ravine]

wym

[wispy sequoia]

^

[boreal ravine]

it did what u wanted lol

[wispy sequoia]

lemme try kick a normal user

[boreal ravine]

embed.add_field(name="Error!", value=f"{error}", inline=False)
``` maybe try this

[wispy sequoia]

nothing has been said

missing perms error raised in console

[boreal ravine]

you want it to send to the channel?

[wispy sequoia]

yes

ofc

[boreal ravine]

@client.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
  await ctx.send(error)
``` something like this

[maiden fable]

And use isinstance

[boreal ravine]

yes

[maiden fable]

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

isinstance(object, classinfo)```
Return `True` if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument, or of a (direct, indirect, or [virtual](https://docs.python.org/3.10/glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class)) subclass thereof. If *object* is not an object of the given type, the function always returns `False`. If *classinfo* is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other such tuples) or a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/stdtypes.html#types-union) of multiple types, return `True` if *object* is an instance of any of the types. If *classinfo* is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") exception is raised.

Changed in version 3.10: *classinfo* can be a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/stdtypes.html#types-union).

Similar names: 2to3fixer.isinstance

[wispy sequoia]

so

i want help

[boreal ravine]

with wut

[steep estuary]

how i can take a number as decimal also

[boreal ravine]

u mean a float

[steep estuary]

this

i want to do float calculations also

:/

[lament carbon]

ok so my question is, is it possible to run multiple discord bot tokens on one project, if yes, can someone help me do it

please spam my dms or ping me 100 times if u can help me with this

[steep estuary]

first mine plz

[boreal ravine]

no u cant

[lament carbon]

really?

ive seen someone do it before tho

thanks*

[boreal ravine]

You wanna run 10 bots in a single file?

[lament carbon]

yes

no i want to run 2

[reef shell]

it's illeagal or againt ToS ig

[lament carbon]

what

why

[boreal ravine]

because automation

[lament carbon]

Ok but is it possible

[steep estuary]

how i can do float calculations toooooo

[boreal ravine]

uhhh sure ig if you find out a way

[lament carbon]

do you know how to do it?

[reef shell]

wdym

[boreal ravine]

no i tried before but it didnt work as intended

[lament carbon]

oh ok

[boreal ravine]

float()

[crude prawn]

my brain hurt

[steep estuary]

but there i print the nums also but when i am doing 1 x 1 it is printing like 1.0 x 1.0

[boreal ravine]

what

[steep estuary]

:/

my command is like this >solve 1 * 1

when i am using float()

[boreal ravine]

yes

thats how floats work

[steep estuary]

this

[boreal ravine]

yes

[boreal ravine]

what are u tryna do exactly? im lost lmao

[steep estuary]

i don't want this

[boreal ravine]

then do int()?

[hasty iron]

then dont do float()?

[steep estuary]

but i also want ans of >solve 0.12 x 5

[boreal ravine]

u have calculate floats and ints?

[reef shell]

if float(num1) - int(num1) == 0:

[hasty iron]

then dont cast

do nothing

just the operation

[willow vine]

how to access bot as a user

or member

[visual island]

it violates discord's TOS

[willow vine]

wdym

no i don't mean self bot

[boreal ravine]

discord bot client?

[hasty iron]

there is bot.user

and Gulld.me

[visual island]

oh i see

[willow vine]

but like if i want to check if the reaction is added bot then it should not perform the statements below

[boreal ravine]

o

[willow vine]

like

  pass```

[visual island]

there's some client out there that gives you access to login to a bot account, so i thought... sorry

[willow vine]

its fine

[zinc lion]

this doesnt wait for the on_ready event, thus the bot is aways offline```py
@bot.event
async def on_ready():
print('go')

async def something():
await bot.wait_until_ready()
channel = bot.get_channel(12345)
while True:

async def something2():
await bot.wait_until_ready()
channel = bot.get_channel(12345)

[maiden fable]

Weird

So somewhere, u r saving discord.Guild object to the JSON

[waxen granite]

after it excuted the cmd it apears like this mising the [] and }

[waxen granite]

yes i am trying to save the message.id of the giveaway msg for a specific guild by saving them under the guildid

[waxen granite]

for this it gives Error : Command raised an exception: TypeError: Object of type Message is not JSON serializable

can't we save msg ids ina json?

[slate swan]

read it again

carefully

also if possible change the naming a bit, it's getting so confusing

[waxen granite]

not able to interpret :3

[waxen granite]

yea sec

[boreal ravine]

hm

[waxen granite]

        guild = str(ctx.guild.id)
        try:
            gcid = self.giveawaychan[guild]
        except KeyError:

            print(f"{gcid}")  
        messageid = await giveawaychannel.fetch_message(msg.id)
        gcid["giveawaymessage"] = messageid
        self.giveawaychan[guild] = gcid
        self.saveFile(self.giveawaychan, "giveaway.json")```

[slate swan]

Not for me , it'll help you to interpret it easily

messageid = await giveawaychannel.fetch_message(msg.id)

you're saving message object in json not id

[waxen granite]

messageid.id?

[slate swan]

You don't need this line if you already have id

just do msg.id

[waxen granite]

hm

[steep estuary]

how to dm a user if he react on a msg :/

[minor kestrel]

@commands.has_role(ROLE ID)

or @commands.has_any_role(ROLES ID SEPARETED BY COMAS)

[steep estuary]

how to dm a user if he react on a msg :/

[minor kestrel]

Then you need an error handler

do you have one?

[steep estuary]

i want if someone will react on a msg then he will get dm from bot :/

[slate swan]

ctx.author

[minor kestrel]

then add a filter for this type of error commands.MissingPermissions

[steep estuary]

like if i want to do giveaway and the bot will give the code to user in dm if he will react

Please someone just tell how to let bot react if someone react on a msg

[minor kestrel]

pls calm

not always people is going to help you they have their own problems

you need to add a filter for the error I said before

and if the error is the same then add something like -> await ctx.send('Insufficient permissions')

not exactly that

do you know the isinstance mehtod? to check values?

[wispy sequoia]

is it possible to make a bot send normal text and an embed in the same message?

how

[minor kestrel]

then use it like this

if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
  #here execute the code

or the other options similar to what you did

guild = bot.get_guild(GUILD ID)
AdminRole = guild.get_role(ROLE ID)

if commands.MissingRole(AdminRole):
  #Execute code here

[wispy sequoia]

lemme try

[hoary gust]

Guys is it possible to get the name of the cog by in which cmd is present?

@slate swan I want to get the name of a cog using a cmd

Like I want to know which cmd is in which cog

[minor kestrel]

@slate swan But I recommend you the first way because can be used for every error related to missing permisions, because in the other you need to specify a filter for each command

But use what you consider better solution to your problem

[hoary gust]

how to add custom emoji like a nitro emoji in my bot

[minor kestrel]

what you want is to get the cog where the command is isn't it?

then use command.Cog

wich returns the cog

[boreal ravine]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions

[minor kestrel]

and is you want the name use the attributes of Cog

[boreal ravine]

what cog arg

[waxen granite]

how can i write this statement?
when x = y: do something

[slate swan]

help @boreal ravine

[boreal ravine]

Do \:emoji:

Then get the emoji markdown then paste it into a string or something

[boreal ravine]

whats that server btw can u invite me?

[slate swan]

testing bit

bot

[waxen granite]

        x = datetime.datetime.utc.now()
        futuredate = datetime.datetime.utcnow() + timedelta(seconds=timewait)```
want to make the giveaway end when x == futuredate, i was using asyncio.sleep but this gets interrupted when the bot is rebooted. how can i make the bot check for x == futuredate?

[slate swan]

with a task

[waxen granite]

i dont know that, do you have some examples of it? how do i use it?

[slate swan]

that would check if x >= futuredate like every minute

[boreal ravine]

hm

[waxen granite]

u mean @tasks.loop?

[slate swan]

yeah

[waxen granite]

hm , but if there is no giveaway it would send errors

[slate swan]

wat

check if the variables exist

or when you have a giveaway, you start the task

once you've sent the message at the end, the task stops

[waxen granite]

hm

[slate swan]

wait

that doesn't stop the restart problem

does it

[waxen granite]

it doesnt

[slate swan]

@tasks.loop(seconds=60)
async def giveawaytask():
    if x and futuredate:
        if x >= futuredate:
            #get the message and send it

will you have multiple giveaways at once? 👀

[waxen granite]

i am getting the giveaway msg id from a json so it can be like if x is more than than of the message.created_at, then it should continue, else: do the task

[slate swan]

testing bot bro

[waxen granite]

no, only 1 giveaway per guild

[slate swan]

per guild

oof

[waxen granite]

well that are multiple in a way i guess

[slate swan]

do you get the futuretime from a json too?

[waxen granite]

wont this task make alot api calls :3

[waxen granite]

no

or maybe i can

[slate swan]

every 1 minute so you're good

ig

[hasty iron]

you cant store datetime objects inside json

store its timestamp instead

[slate swan]

strings tho

you can convert strings to datetime

[hasty iron]

timestamp is better

[slate swan]

prolly

get the futuretime, then if futuretime <= nowtime, get the message that was passed to the futuretime and continue

help i want to add this emoji in discord bot will it accept

isn't it like a database

this emoji

futuretime | message1
futuretime | message2
futuretime | message3
futuretime | message4

[slate swan]

help anyone

isn't it built like this

aw man

!Tadanimated

if the bot is in that server, it can use the emoji like this

[slate swan]

if the bot is not then

then it can't use that emoji

bru

if you're not in a server, you can't use that server's emoji either

[slate swan]

ohk

but does the bot have nitro

yes

[slate swan]

ohk thnx

[slate swan]

but can it use anywhere?

ohk

[slate swan]

what

[slate swan]

three dots will it work

[boreal ravine]

@slate swan bruh i already told u..

[slate swan]

don't think so

[minor kestrel]

Hi i am having an issue, I am using the event on_member_remove and then get the audit logs and filter them for kick actions async for entry in guild.audit_logs(action=discord.AuditLogAction.kick): this is to know if a user have been kicked even if the moderators doesn't use the command of the bot and do it by using the simply the discord option to kick a member. But there are some members that have been kicked by the bot, but instead of not doing nothing (as it should do based on the code below) it blame the kick action on another random moderator. Why is this???

Code:

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_member_remove(self, member):
        guild = self.bot.get_guild(GUILD ID)
        async for entry in guild.audit_logs(action=discord.AuditLogAction.kick):
            if entry.user.bot:
                return
                #It should stop here but instead it blame it on another moderator
            else:
              #Execute code and send a message saying who kicked the user

[boreal ravine]

the bot needs to be in the server 4 it 2 use the emoji

[slate swan]

see

[slate swan]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

Audit logs can take some time to get updated and can give wrong results on instant fetch after action

see what

[slate swan]

not working

oh

is the bot in the weeb server?

no

will not work

[slate swan]

but i added the same emoji in my server

[minor kestrel]

then is there solution? wait some time or what?

[slate swan]

oh

[slate swan]

?

send that emoji here with the backslash before it

ok

\:emoji:

[slate swan]

Wait some time. Send a message without this info and maybe later update it

[minor kestrel]

ok the thing is that it have been working for some time but since 1 month ago it started giving problems

[slate swan]

await message.add_reaction("716258118136234075")

no

the string is built up like

<a:emoji_name:emoji_id:>

await message.add_reaction("716258118136234075")

!Tadanimated

yes

[slate swan]

everything i need to paste in emoji send

await message.add_reaction(":Tadanimated:")

no

bru

[slate swan]

yes

discord is just bullying me rn

mordex

ok but you need to paste in that long version

not just the name of the emoji

[slate swan]

ohk

!Tadanimated

see all of this

NO

[grim oar]

!d discord.Message.add_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.add\_reaction

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

Add a reaction to the message.

The emoji may be a unicode emoji or a custom guild [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Emoji "discord.Emoji").

You must have the [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission to use this. If nobody else has reacted to the message using this emoji, the [`add_reactions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.add_reactions "discord.Permissions.add_reactions") permission is required.

[grim oar]

It's ^

[slate swan]

<a:emoji:emoji_id>

[compact field]

guys how can i get all messages of channel ?

[slate swan]

!d discord.TextChannel.history

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.history

async for ... in history(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None)```
Returns an [`AsyncIterator`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.AsyncIterator "discord.AsyncIterator") that enables receiving the destination’s message history.

You must have [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permissions to use this.

[slate swan]

but what you said is sus

[waxen granite]

@slate swanhow do i save the time ?

[slate swan]

dunno

I don't know nothing about json, nor about timestamp

[vestal badger]

Hi, I'm using DC Webhooks to send message to channels in my server. I was wondering if there's any way to @mention under that message.
Is that possible?

[slate swan]

mention a member?

[slate swan]

import datetime

[vestal badger]

A role

[slate swan]

!d discord.Role.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role.mention

mention```
Returns a string that allows you to mention a role.

[vestal badger]

I'm not using dc bot but Webhooks

So, any way to mention a role with Webhooks?

[waxen granite]

[steep estuary]

no like i started a giveaway and specified the time so bot should send msg on that time

[maiden fable]

Ah

Well, I ain't familiar with that type, but I think u will have to use the datetime module

[slate swan]

I'd use https://github.com/gawel/aiocron Not for user reminders

[steep estuary]

ok like a command is >tellmehiat 6

so it should tell hi at 6 :/

[hasty iron]

!d datetime.datetime.timestamp

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.timestamp

datetime.timestamp()```
Return POSIX timestamp corresponding to the [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") instance. The return value is a [`float`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/functions.html#float "float") similar to that returned by [`time.time()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/time.html#time.time "time.time").

Naive [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") instances are assumed to represent local time and this method relies on the platform C `mktime()` function to perform the conversion. Since [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") supports wider range of values than `mktime()` on many platforms, this method may raise [`OverflowError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#OverflowError "OverflowError") for times far in the past or far in the future.

For aware [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") instances, the return value is computed as:

```py
(dt - datetime(1970, 1, 1, tzinfo=timezone.utc)).total_seconds()
```   New in version 3.3.

Changed in version 3.6: The [`timestamp()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.timestamp "datetime.datetime.timestamp") method uses the [`fold`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.fold "datetime.datetime.fold") attribute to disambiguate the times during a repeated interval.

[hasty iron]

!d datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp

classmethod datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp, tz=None)```
Return the local date and time corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, such as is returned by [`time.time()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/time.html#time.time "time.time"). If optional argument *tz* is `None` or not specified, the timestamp is converted to the platform’s local date and time, and the returned [`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "datetime.datetime") object is naive.

If *tz* is not `None`, it must be an instance of a [`tzinfo`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.tzinfo "datetime.tzinfo") subclass, and the timestamp is converted to *tz*’s time zone.

[slate swan]

flags is empty

[chilly fossil]

Hola

[slate swan]

Why do you even declare is

[dense swallow]

i want to get user's flags

[slate swan]

That's not how it works..

[dense swallow]

then?

[lofty heron]

hi, how can i remove the load and unload commands from the help menu? kek ik other people can't run this because i've made it owner only but i don't want people to try to use it

[dense swallow]

@commands.command(hidden=True) # in cogs

@client.command(hidden=True) 
#or
@bot.command(hidden=True)

[slate swan]

Get the public user flags of the user, then use something like .bug_hunter on it and it gives a boolean back wether or not the user has this badge.

[lofty heron]

tenks :DDDDD

[chilly fossil]

Hey can anyone teach me python for discord.....i just know the basics

[lofty heron]

do just slap it on to the end of @client/commands.command() in the brackets?

[slate swan]

!reference

Whatever

[dense swallow]

so what I did is completely wrong?

[chilly fossil]

ok

[pure reef]

hm

[dense swallow]

!refer

[slate swan]

Simply check, for example:

    # user has staff badge

[dense swallow]

ohh

[slate swan]

It returns a boolean

[pure reef]

still banned from dpy 😭

[dense swallow]

same

[dense swallow]

thats why when i wrote the code before it said, staff=False

[unique nexus]

AttributeError: 'PermissionOverwrite' object has no attribute 'read_message'

it has attribute read_message?

[slate swan]

read_messages

[unique nexus]

i am confused

oh ty i was wondering i saw in docs but why it is passing error

🥲

[lofty heron]

hi, i'm not sure what i did wrong with the client.eventon ready thing can somebody help?

[stark bobcat]

which database is best for economy command

[steep estuary]

i have a problem

this is not working without a error

[hasty iron]

closetime is not an event

[tulip oracle]

i cant seem to except discord.MemberNotFound? everytime my commands.MemberNotFound is called

[steep estuary]

wdym?

:/

[hasty iron]

i mean exactly what i mean

closetime is not a valid event

[steep estuary]

i want to run the function without a command how i can run ?

[hasty iron]

run it like a normal function?

[boreal ravine]

{client.user}

[steep estuary]

but i want that the function should run at the given time

[hasty iron]

the use tasks

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, count=None, reconnect=True, loop=None)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[steep estuary]

how to use it :/

k

[stark bobcat]

which database is best for economy command

[lofty heron]

thanks :D

[steep estuary]

wht the given minutes will do ?

[tulip oracle]

dict base db's

[hasty iron]

run that function every 5 minutes

[steep estuary]

but i want to run that in given time :/

[boreal ravine]

:)

[hasty iron]

then run it whenever you want

[steep estuary]

i can use it once by count = 1 ?

only this much?

[hasty iron]

but what you want will work with that

you want to check if a giveaway ended

[dense swallow]

        flags = member.public_flags

what should i put in .join() ?

[hasty iron]

you don't want to just check it once and thats it

[hasty iron]

!d str.join

[unkempt canyon]

str.join

str.join(iterable)```
Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in *iterable*. A [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") will be raised if there are any non-string values in *iterable*, including [`bytes`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/stdtypes.html#bytes "bytes") objects. The separator between elements is the string providing this method.

[tulip oracle]

i cant seem to except discord.MemberNotFound? everytime my commands.MemberNotFound is called

[steep estuary]

like i start a giveaway by the command >gstart [channel where it will anounce] [time when bot will announce the winner]

[tulip oracle]

dicts exist

[steep estuary]

the bot should announce the winner once at given time :/

[dense swallow]

f = {
'like this?'
}

[tulip oracle]

{flags.early_supporter:':support:'}

[dense swallow]

did that b4

[tulip oracle]

then you have done it wrong

[steep estuary]

is this enough?

[vagrant brook]

It's commands.MemberNotFound, not discord.MemberNotFound

[tulip oracle]

it is? i tried to except that before and it wouldnt

[vagrant brook]

Bots don't have access to these afaik

[tulip oracle]

ill try it again

[tulip pawn]

how to make a command that can take 2 arguments seperated by a comma

[vagrant brook]

Just read everything

And use split()

!d str.split

[unkempt canyon]

str.split

str.split(sep=None, maxsplit=- 1)```
Return a list of the words in the string, using *sep* as the delimiter string. If *maxsplit* is given, at most *maxsplit* splits are done (thus, the list will have at most `maxsplit+1` elements). If *maxsplit* is not specified or `-1`, then there is no limit on the number of splits (all possible splits are made).

If *sep* is given, consecutive delimiters are not grouped together and are deemed to delimit empty strings (for example, `'1,,2'.split(',')` returns `['1', '', '2']`). The *sep* argument may consist of multiple characters (for example, `'1<>2<>3'.split('<>')` returns `['1', '2', '3']`). Splitting an empty string with a specified separator returns `['']`.

For example:

[tulip pawn]

i did that but i didnt work

one sec ill send the code

[dense swallow]

dpy has flags, bots do have those... wick bot shows badges of a user

[vagrant brook]

It's in dpy

[velvet crest]

Hwo can i do so that if i press one button both of them get disabled instead of one being disabled ? (Bot the buttons in that view )

[vagrant brook]

But bots don't have access to that endpoint

[tulip pawn]

@bot.command
async def test(self, ctx, *, p):
    p1, p2 = p.split(",")
    await ctx.send(f"{p1} {p2}")

Ignoring exception in command None:
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "test" is not found

[hoary gust]

how to use that cog

[vagrant brook]

First thing you're missing brackets in @bot.command()
Second thing why do you have self

[hoary gust]

how to get the name of the cog using that cog param

?

[vagrant brook]

Sorry for ping 😓

[tulip pawn]

ohhhh

thanks a lot

rookie mistake

[vagrant brook]

I think you need special OAuth scopes

[dense swallow]

its just getting badges..

right?

[hoary gust]

anyone

?

[dense swallow]

help of cog? with HelpCommand?

[hoary gust]

i want to get the name of the cog

but how to use that param

?

[dense swallow]

cog.qualified_name

async def send_cog_help(self, cog):
title = cog.qualified_name

and then use in embed or send simply

[hoary gust]

what?

i got it

maybe

[slate swan]

command "test" is not found

[dense swallow]

that gets the cog name

[dense swallow]

missing () in bot.command

lol msg deleted ?

[tulip pawn]

yea i got it pichu cleared my doubt thanks though!

[dense swallow]

ok

[hoary gust]

@dense swallow is it correct

async def test(self, ctx, cog):
    await ctx.send(cog.qualified_name)

[dense swallow]

ctx?

in HelpCommand it is self.get_destination()

[hoary gust]

i want it for something else

[dense swallow]

to send in HelpCommand its not ctx, its self.get_destination, you can define a var

channel = self.get_destination()
await channel.send()

[grim mango]

can somebody help me to create a mod mail bot??

plz??

[hoary gust]

i dont want to get the cog in a help cmd i want to get the name of the cog separately

[steep estuary]

please help me

[dense swallow]

not in HelpCommand?

just in general?

[steep estuary]

i have this command but it is not working

not atleast once

[dapper cobalt]

Just try to make one. Look for tutorials on YouTube or seek sources on GitHub or Google. Ask here only if you have issues with your code.

[grim mango]

i'm doing there is a prob

[hoary gust]

i want to get the name of the cog using the name of the cmd present in it but is it possible?

[dapper cobalt]

send_command_help(command)

[dense swallow]

ctx.command.cog ?

[hoary gust]

i am trying to get the name of a cmd from a other cmd and i want to get the name of the cog also in which the cmd is present

[dapper cobalt]

Command object has a parent attribute, which is the cog's name.

[hoary gust]

lemme explain u what i am trying to do

[dapper cobalt]

I can't help you too much since I'm on my phone. Try to search in the docs for the command object.

[hoary gust]

test is the name of a cmd
test2 is the name of the other cmd that is present in another cog

now i want to get the name of the cog using the name test with the help of test2

[dapper cobalt]

Command object has a parent attribute which is the cog's class.

[dense swallow]

what??

[dapper cobalt]

Read the last line of your error.

[dense swallow]

@hoary gust ctx.command.cog.qualified_name returns the cog name of the command that is used

[jolly scroll]

how do i fix it

[dapper cobalt]

Read the last line.

[jolly scroll]

bruh

[hoary gust]

can u plz show me a example how to use it

[jolly scroll]

i mean how do i define it

[dapper cobalt]

I don't know what are you trying to do.

[dense swallow]

# cogs/testcmd.py
@bot.command()
async def test(self, ctx):
  await ctx.send(f'This command belongs to cog: {ctx.command.cog.qualified_name}')

so this return testcmd

[hoary gust]

thanks

[dense swallow]

changed the cog name not to make it confusing

np

[dapper cobalt]

Doesn't it return the class's name and not the file?

[dense swallow]

yeah

you want the file name?

[dapper cobalt]

No. But I guess he thinks it returns the file's name.

[dense swallow]

to resolve that u can just name the file and class same name lol

[hoary gust]

yes

[dense swallow]

idk that

but ik how to get class name of cmd

[hoary gust]

ok thanks bud

[dense swallow]

👍

@dapper cobaltcan u help me pls... im trying to get user's flags/badges

what should i put in .join() ?

[hoary gust]

@dense swallow can u tell me how to get a cogs name from a cmd that is not in it

[dense swallow]

is that possible ?

is this in HelpCommand?

[hoary gust]

maybe

[hoary gust]

not for that

[minor kestrel]

How could I make a temporal ban? any idea?

[dense swallow]

i only know for that, sry

[hoary gust]

ok

[dense swallow]

concept: member.ban() then await asyncio.sleep(days) then ctx.guild.unban()

probably not efficient

[visual island]

use a db

then tasks.loop

[hoary gust]

plz help

[pale turtle]

What argument do you have tho?

I mean what cog name?

[hoary gust]

i want to get the class name from a differnt cmd that is not in that particular og

[slate swan]

get the command using bot.get_command and then it should have some attr named cog or something I don't remember exactly

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.cog_name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.cog\_name

cog_name```
The name of the cog this command belongs to, if any.

[pale turtle]

Yeah you can't just magically get a Cog namr, how and what from yoh wabt to get it

[hoary gust]

but how will it work?

[slate swan]

wdym?

[hoary gust]

i mean i have the cmd name now i want to get the cog name of that cmd

[slate swan]

^

[pale turtle]

Yeah so like what Akshu said

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_command

get_command(name)```
Get a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") from the internal list of commands.

This could also be used as a way to get aliases.

The name could be fully qualified (e.g. `'foo bar'`) will get the subcommand `bar` of the group command `foo`. If a subcommand is not found then `None` is returned just as usual.

[hoary gust]

ok maybe i get it

[dense swallow]

can anyone help me pls

[waxen granite]

how do i check if message is edited?

[visual island]

you should use somelist.append(':bug_hunter_lvl1:') instead of just a string

[dense swallow]

but then how do i make it into emojis?

[hoary gust]

@slate swan is it correct

cmd = self.bot.get_command("test")
cm2  = self.bot.cog_name(cmd)
print(cm2)

[hasty iron]

there is cmd.cog

[pale turtle]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.cog_name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.cog\_name

cog_name```
The name of the cog this command belongs to, if any.

[hoary gust]

it didnt work

[hasty iron]

define "didnt work"

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron is it possible to unload a cog from a cog

[hasty iron]

yes?

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron ^

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_cog

uh

[hoary gust]

ah

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload\_extension

unload_extension(name, *, package=None)```
Unloads an extension.

When the extension is unloaded, all commands, listeners, and cogs are removed from the bot and the module is un-imported.

The extension can provide an optional global function, `teardown`, to do miscellaneous clean-up if necessary. This function takes a single parameter, the `bot`, similar to `setup` from [`load_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension").

[slate swan]

^

[hoary gust]

is it possible to unload a cog from a cog

?

[slate swan]

yes

if you have the bot attribute in the cog just do self.bot.unload_extension

[hoary gust]

i have that thanks

[dense swallow]

[hard merlin]

sorry

[slate swan]

hmm..

[slate swan]

full tb?

[dense swallow]

tb?

[slate swan]

yes

traceback

[dense swallow]

i changed 4th em.add_field to this:

em.add_field(name='Date joined', value=f"{format_date(member.joined_at)}", inline=False)

[slate swan]

what happened then?

[hard merlin]

Also I have another question, how do I show the number of bots in a server??
I know that len(ctx.guild.members) will show the total members, but how to show only the number of bots in a server??

[slate swan]

len(bot_user for bot_user in ctx.guild.members if bot_user == bot.user)

[dense swallow]

same error

[hard merlin]

thanks

[slate swan]

just try to print format_date(member.joined_at) and see what comes

[steep estuary]

no one reply here i am asking from 2 hours 😦

[dense swallow]

nothing came.. b4 i was doing it with error handler

[slate swan]

if nothing comes, the value is empty

so the error is raised

[dense swallow]

not with this

gonna try that

[slate swan]

you are trying to get an item from a list but the item indexed to what you want isn't there

[steep estuary]

ooo

[dense swallow]

Mon, Jan 11, 2021, 06:39 PM UTC

[slate swan]

okay, it returns something

[dense swallow]

yea

im using that format_date to see the user's account creation

but wont return date joined, or that 4 embed value

[slate swan]

who's account did you try on

[dense swallow]

mine

[slate swan]

well then i don't know sorry

something in the embed is empty

[dense swallow]

so that error is telling that the 4th em.add_field is empty?

[hard merlin]

it gives me this error

[slate swan]

use []

instead of ()

also len([])

oh

yeah

[hard merlin]

k

now I get this

whoops, sorry I used [()] instead of ([])

[brazen raft]

Add parentheses around the list

Oh

[pale turtle]

I need bot ideas

[hard merlin]

now there is another problem, it shows this when there r actally two bots in the server

[pale turtle]

I did a ModMail that everyone can use already(I mean not with docker stuff cause I donno how, but with config file)

[pale turtle]

Just got here, you have members intents?

[hard merlin]

yes

[boreal ravine]

why are u using a modified discord client when you know it's illegal

[pale turtle]

Why is there if bot_user == bot.user

[plucky shoal]

Is that betterdiscord?

[hard merlin]

yes??

[plucky shoal]

You know that's against tos, right?

[boreal ravine]

^

[hard merlin]

I am sorry, but how is that related to a question on a bot count command?

[boreal ravine]

just saying lol

[slate swan]

why?

[plucky shoal]

It's not related, it's just you can't stay in the server while using betterdiscord

[pale turtle]

You should do bot_user for bot_user in ctx.guild.members if bot_user.bot

[hard merlin]

k

[slate swan]

len([_bot for _bot in ctx.guild.members if _bot.bot])

[brazen raft]

Or sum(map(lambda member: member.bot, ctx.guild.members))

[hard merlin]

this one worked

thanks

[dapper cobalt]

If it's not used for anything harmful (e.g. themes) then Discord couldn't care less.

[plucky shoal]

Rules are rules

[boreal ravine]

yeah but discord said it themselves modified clients aren't allowed

[dapper cobalt]

Well, Discord doesn't really care, so why would you?

[hard merlin]

no way to prove that I broke the tos anyway

[boreal ravine]

you clearly did

[plucky shoal]

You literally sent a screenshot of the modified client and answered yes when I asked you if you use betterdiscord

[dapper cobalt]

He just used a theme which if you got mad over this you are just jealous imo.

[hard merlin]

check again

[plucky shoal]

Deleting messages won't help, the server has logs of all messages

[boreal ravine]

how is using a theme jealousy?

[boreal ravine]

not images sadly (i think?)

[hard merlin]

idc

[plucky shoal]

I think yes?

[boreal ravine]

possible

[slate swan]

Anyway, what he wants to do is up to him, so we should just leave it here

[dapper cobalt]

Being mad because someone used a theme is jealousy imo. I don't get any comments on me using a github dark theme.

[dapper cobalt]

[boreal ravine]

Isn't that the normal theme for gh?

[plucky shoal]

It is ^

[boreal ravine]

lmao

[thick sigil]

[dapper cobalt]

Which?

[boreal ravine]

github dark theme

[plucky shoal]

Light and dark themes are built in github already

[dapper cobalt]

Oh wait I think I got what you mean.

[boreal ravine]

yes

[dapper cobalt]

No I mean a Discord github dark theme.

A modified client.

[plucky shoal]

Any modification to the discord client is not allowed

Are you saying that you're using betterdiscord as well?

[hard merlin]

Discord itself never cared when ppl modified their client for themes, I dont get why u r so pumped up about it

[boreal ravine]

Not rlly we just said that it was against tos

[dapper cobalt]

Yes I am. But I'm not harming you or anyone in any way so I don't see a reason why you care so much tbh.

[hard merlin]

they said its not allowed, I am replying to that one

[boreal ravine]

yes it's not allowed

[reef shell]

I'm getting a keyerror, send help

[dapper cobalt]

We gone too off-topic.

[dapper cobalt]

Show your code.

[boreal ravine]

SyntaxError*

😂

[hard merlin]

also they said it was illegal, its not illegal, its just against the tos. If its illegal then betterdiscord would have gotten a cease and decease order

[boreal ravine]

true

but I think I saw a chart where 5% of discord users got their account banned for client modifications

[hard merlin]

thats cuz they did harmful things with it. Most probably not for using themes

[boreal ravine]

Mhm

[plucky shoal]

<@&831776746206265384> This is just going off topic, talking about if betterdiscord is ok and stuff like that, stop it here please

[boreal ravine]

we stopped? (2 minutes ago)

[plucky shoal]

Not really

[covert igloo]

LOL

[dapper cobalt]

That was a pretty unnecessary ping tbh.

[boreal ravine]

Api abusing maybe?

[slate swan]

I don't know if you should've pinged the role

[pale turtle]

I see no reason to actually ping the Mods. No one is currently asking for help, and there is a better option for now which is @novel apex . I reported a few minutes ago about the problem.

[reef shell]

@unkempt canyon deleted my message sorry

[slate swan]

This is something ya'll brought up, so just stop it yourselves now

[covert igloo]

He gotta be trolling

[boreal ravine]

Who?

[hot cobalt]

It's fine, if the discussion is over then it's over, we can move on

[pale turtle]

Don't think he meant you.

[boreal ravine]

ye

[reef shell]

oh i thought ...

[dapper cobalt]

No not you.

[reef shell]

nvm

[pale turtle]

.topic cough

[lament depot]

**What's one feature you wish more developers had in their bots?**

Suggest more topics here!

[hard merlin]

actually we did

[dense swallow]

its the problem with member.joined_at used to work fine

[boreal ravine]

uhm an urban dict command

[slate swan]

wat?

[reef shell]

alr imma paste the code it pastebin , then maybe you can see, otherwise @unkempt canyon is not letting me

[dapper cobalt]

Alright.

[dense swallow]

member joined server line... i changed its position , now it says embed.value 2

before it was 4

[reef shell]

https://pastebin.com/regvWJ92 I'm getting a keyerror here even tho there is actually an attr. named data-src

It's for a bot

[slate swan]

just do member.joined_at instead of formatting and try it

[lament mesa]

The docs say Member.joined_at can be None sometimes

[steep estuary]

why it is not changing the global StopTime ??

why it is not changing the global Stop Time?

[dense swallow]

it does return smth

[steep estuary]

oops srry

net problem

[steep estuary]

pls tell

[lament mesa]

dont use globals

[dense swallow]

doesnt even respond lol

[lament mesa]

you can use a dictionary

[slate swan]

what

[dense swallow]

ok it was some lag

same error

[steep estuary]

??

[lament mesa]

"globals are evil"

[steep estuary]

i just want to change that :/

[steep estuary]

how i can use dictionary for that

?

[lament mesa]

giveaway_config = dict(stop_time=0, giveaway_channel=None, participants={}, giveaway_active=False)```

[steep estuary]

aaaaaa wht is this i am seeing this first time :/

[lament mesa]

dictionary is mutable, so you can change it

[lament mesa]

its a dictionary

[steep estuary]

i should use it inside this function?

[lament mesa]

no

[steep estuary]

then?

here outside the command function?

??

[lament mesa]

wait

what are you trying to do?

[steep estuary]

the StopTime variable's value is not changing by using variable :/

my command takes >gstart [channel] [endtime]
