discord-bots

[warm terrace]

but where do i put it in the code, ?

[hasty iron]

shouldnt be too hard

[warm terrace]

i meant in this

how to tho ?

[untold token]

The docs give you examples

You can read those

[warm terrace]

ohk

[drifting arrow]

I need an idea for a bot to make ;-;

[heavy folio]

wdym documentation? do i just need this piece of code?

or do i need this too?

idk which documentation

[maiden fable]

Well I never used that, but I told to see the documentation folder

[untold token]

What is that

The indentation is painful

[slate swan]

can i use both client.event and bot.command()

[maiden fable]

[boreal ravine]

jesus christ my eyes

[drifting arrow]

why not just do @bot.event? 🤔

[untold token]

Unless you define and client and bot together, not you cannot

And you shouldn't

Use bot

[maiden fable]

@heavy folio what's even tagscript tho?

[untold token]

If you are already using it

[slate swan]

ok

[boreal ravine]

typescript?

[dapper cobalt]

First, you can, but you shouldn't.
Second, why do you even want to do that?

[slate swan]

idk

[maiden fable]

No

[untold token]

Typescript is completely different thing lol

[slate swan]

idk

[boreal ravine]

very good response

[slate swan]

ikr

[boreal ravine]

mhm

[dapper cobalt]

If you're just bored, you can go outside.

[untold token]

I mean if you do
client = bot = commands.Bot(...)
It would work, but you should never do this

[drifting arrow]

I would go outside but it's cold, wet and dark.

[slate swan]

nah im not

[untold token]

It can cause naming issues and confusion

[dapper cobalt]

Or

bot = commands.Bot(..)
client = commands.Bot(..)

[warm terrace]

is there a way i can check if a song is being played in my bot ?

[slate swan]

ok

[dapper cobalt]

Are you playing this music from YouTube?

[warm terrace]

yeah

[dapper cobalt]

!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.

For reference, this usage is covered by the following clauses in YouTube's TOS, as of 2021-03-17:

The following restrictions apply to your use of the Service. You are not allowed to:

1. access, reproduce, download, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, alter, modify or otherwise use any part of the Service or any Content except: (a) as specifically permitted by the Service;  (b) with prior written permission from YouTube and, if applicable, the respective rights holders; or (c) as permitted by applicable law;

9. use the Service to view or listen to Content other than for personal, non-commercial use (for example, you may not publicly screen videos or stream music from the Service)

[slate swan]

it causes the naming issues still right due to using 2 clients?

[untold token]

That wouldn't work tho

[valid perch]

Just don't. Use 1

[untold token]

You can only run one constructor

[drifting arrow]

Why are we still discussing the use of bot and client at the same time?

[dapper cobalt]

[warm terrace]

wait thats a rule ?!

[untold token]

bot.run()
client.run() won't work

[untold token]

Yeh

[hasty iron]

you can do client.loop.create_task(bot.start())

[warm terrace]

what if i dont want to do it from youtube, then how can i check if it is being played in ?

like as in general

[dapper cobalt]

Rule 5 is that we cannot provide support for something that can break laws/ToS, and streaming music from YouTube is against their ToS.

[untold token]

Oh, hmm, that's possible too lol

Background task

But why would you do it lol

[valid perch]

Why would you do any of this. just use one

[warm terrace]

alright, but if it was like in general then how would u go about seeing if the music is being played or not ?

[valid perch]

But its not

[untold token]

Wait, do you own the channel called MenuDocs?

[valid perch]

No, but I am on the team.

[untold token]

Oh

[valid perch]

Wassup

[hasty iron]

wdym "why"

[heavy folio]

e.g. like carl bot

u get to make custom commands and if u do the delete block ({delete}) it'll delete command invocation etc

[slate swan]

can you make a bot that keep logs of what commands have been used?

[valid perch]

Yes

[maiden fable]

Dang, ok

[drifting arrow]

Sure can

[high flame]

start() is a coro

[slate swan]

i have to use bot.commands right i cant do it only with client.event?

[valid perch]

You'd want on_command_completion iirc

[heavy folio]

hmm i cant find anything online tho

[valid perch]

That'd give you every command run. I use it for my command stats command

https://gyazo.com/5af8b3391f607c7e9168949636fbc7a8

I assume your wanting something like that?

[drifting arrow]

Love me a good statistics

[drifting arrow]

Do you also track who said the command? Like 'Gnomeslayer said add item 15 times'

[valid perch]

No

[drifting arrow]

sigh

[valid perch]

This bot only has 1 user, so no need

[drifting arrow]

Do you save the commands externally so if the bot goes offline you maintain the statS?

[valid perch]

Correct, all stored in mongo

[drifting arrow]

Noice

[valid perch]

The base of the command is also open source as well cos tut

Although I should probably justify string widths lol

[slate swan]

no more like:
("!hello") command as been used in ("channel") at (00:00) by (user#0000)
like that but it saves the logs in a txt file

[drifting arrow]

why txt file? why not csv file? 🤔

[valid perch]

!d discord.on_command_completion

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_command\_completion

discord.on_command_completion(ctx)```
An event that is called when a command has completed its invocation.

This event is called only if the command succeeded, i.e. all checks have passed and the user input it correctly.

[valid perch]

Still want that, just save it differently

[drifting arrow]

neat imma create my own commands stats :3

[slate swan]

whats the difference?

[drifting arrow]

Easier to import into excel

[slate swan]

ok thanks

[high flame]

i'd use a json

[slate swan]

ok

[drifting arrow]

if it's between txt and csv, go with csv.

[agile shale]

Does anyone have a course suggestion where I can learn the discord module?

[valid perch]

Check pins

[hoary gust]

whats this error

[slate swan]

i cant it gives me a error when i download it

[high flame]

{
  "command_name": 54, // usage
  "command_name": 452,
  "command_name": 12
}

example

[hasty iron]

why are you running your webserver on port 20000

that makes 0 sense, and i told you that earlier

[hoary gust]

its not working with any other port

[hasty iron]

what is "not working"

[hoary gust]

lemme show

wait a sec

[summer jungle]

Does anyone know how people do those menus with the reactions that changes page?

[high flame]

🤔

[hasty iron]

thanks

[high flame]

np

[slate swan]

can someone help me with this?

vc.play(self.source, after= what should be here?)

[untold token]

Pagination

[hasty iron]

a function

a non-async function

[slate swan]

hmmm ok

[summer jungle]

What's that?

[untold token]

You can use discord-ext-menus for pagination

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron

[untold token]

What you just said

Menus that change pages on reaction

[hasty iron]

its because the ipc server cant connect

ipc client*

[hoary gust]

but why

[summer jungle]

Is there any way to track if someone reacts to a message

[hasty iron]

because its not running?

[hoary gust]

8888 port should work

its running

[heavy radish]

Hello. I'm doing research to make a BOT that reads embeds. I'm tryna code it in Python (obv) where should I learn ?

[hasty iron]

is the ipc server running

[hoary gust]

backend is working so yes

[hasty iron]

on the same machine

[untold token]

Reading embeds are really simple

[hoary gust]

yes

[untold token]

You need to get the message object that has an embed

[heavy radish]

Yes but where do I learn that

[untold token]

For example

[heavy radish]

Yes...

[agile shale]

Does anyone have a up-to-date course suggestion where I can learn the discord module?

[hoary gust]

i am getting a error in my bot

[hasty iron]

ok what is it

[heavy radish]

Hopefully reply to my message. I'm gonna get a sip of water

I'll be back ASAP

[keen comet]

The internet™️

[untold token]

Embeds = message.embeds # message is the message object and embeds returns a list of embeds that are in the message itself

print(str(Embeds[0].title)) # if the embed has an title, it will print the content of the title and Embeds[0] is the first embed in the list of embeds that was returned from attribute .embeds```

Ofc this is just an example

[untold token]

You can make it much better

[hasty iron]

why is it binding to ipv6

[hoary gust]

wdym

[hasty iron]

::1 is the localhost for IPv6

[hoary gust]

am i supposed to connect to ipv4

[hoary gust]

so what should i do

[hasty iron]

no clue tbh

[dapper cobalt]

Are you trying to read embeds sent?

[hasty iron]

i have no idea why its trying to bind to ::1

[untold token]

Maybe it's an issue with replit?

Because they are doing this on replit

[quasi pawn]

Why does my commands stop working when I added an event?

[untold token]

You didn't call process_commands and an normal on_message event will block your commands as it overrides the default on_message event

[hasty iron]

replit cant interfere with arguments passed into functions

[heavy island]

is it possible to make buttons with discord py

[keen comet]

yes

[untold token]

You need to call process_commands in the event or use
@bot.listen()

[hasty iron]

https://ext-creators.github.io/docs/ipc/latest/modules/server/#discord.ext.ipc.server.Server it says here that it defaults to localhost

[untold token]

No not that

I am talking about the ipv6 issue

::1 thing

[hasty iron]

you have to explicitly pass it in lol

[quasi pawn]

I see

[hasty iron]

either pass in a socket.socket with the AF_INET6 family into loop.create_server or something else

replit cant mess with that

[untold token]

Oh I see

[untold token]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

listen(name=None)```
A decorator that registers another function as an external event listener. Basically this allows you to listen to multiple events from different places e.g. such as [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready")

The functions being listened to must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.9)").

Example...

[untold token]

Read this for more info about external event listeners

[lament mesa]

why ::1?

[slate swan]

it says TypeError: <lambda>() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

how do i fix this? im doing after = lambda: event_loop.create_task(self.a())

@stiff nexus does the button have url kwarg?

[stiff nexus]

what

[boreal ravine]

does the button have a url kwarg

[stiff nexus]

YES

[boreal ravine]

maybe read the docs on 3rd party libs

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron

i fixed those

but how can i set a url to my web address

[lament mesa]

what web address?

a custom domain?

replit will provide a domain iirc @hoary gust

[hoary gust]

no i am not using repl anymore

[bitter depot]

@red nest Make sure not to sure your token

[red nest]

oh sorry

[bitter depot]

You should regen your token ^ @red nest

[lament mesa]

you will have to buy a domain first

[hoary gust]

i have a domain

tell me how to do it

[lament mesa]

and run the web server on a service like heroku

[red nest]

yeah ill do it now

[hoary gust]

i am using ipc

thats why i need to use it with my bot

[lament mesa]

cant you run the server separately?, no?

[hoary gust]

is there any way i can add my website

[hoary gust]

no i cant

else ipc is not working

[red nest]

ok can someone help me now it says member not found in the unban command

[keen comet]

because it doesnt found the member "mee6” in the ban list?

[vale root]

Should discord.member be guild.member?

[red nest]

i banned him before

[red nest]

no

[keen comet]

try using the id

like 810533927492124693

[red nest]

ok

with the id it says the same thing

so also with the id it doesn't work

[hoary gust]

@lament mesa

[slate swan]

can someone please help me and tell me why this is ahhpening?

[slate swan]

!d discord.VoiceChannel.connect

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.connect

await connect(*, timeout=60.0, reconnect=True, cls=<class 'discord.voice_client.VoiceClient'>)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Connects to voice and creates a [`VoiceClient`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.VoiceClient "discord.VoiceClient") to establish your connection to the voice server.

[sweet merlin]

any simple way to make space in commands without using message.startswith?

[tight obsidian]

Someone is calling this function with an argument.

Can you show more code?

[slate swan]

its realy just that

[tight obsidian]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.VoiceClient.play
If this is what you're using, it explains that your function should accept one argument.

[slate swan]

oh

[hasty iron]

you shouldn’t use loop.create_task

in the after

you should use asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe

[sweet merlin]

hello?

what am i doing wrong

🙏

[tight obsidian]

If that's true, that's some crucial information missing from the docs

[hasty iron]

the docs have it too

in the FAQ

[tight obsidian]

that's a weird place to put it

[slate swan]

any help?

[hoary gust]

Fix error plz help

[slate swan]

bannermember not user 😛

[tight obsidian]

if it's part of the contract for this function, it should be in the docs for this function

[slate swan]

Ok ill try

you have define the member as bannermember not as user

[hasty iron]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html#how-do-i-pass-a-coroutine-to-the-player-s-after-function

[hasty iron]

you need to have git to install it too

pip install git+<github url>

How to create a category using a bot?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.create_category

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_category

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

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

Note

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

[rare saddle]

thanks

[empty bough]

Hi, i don't know nothing about programing

[lament mesa]

yes

[drifting arrow]

🤔

[lament mesa]

Do you have a frontend?

You can have your web-app on heroku and give it a domain

[amber imp]

help pls when i used @bot.event after @bot.command it's not working
y?

[lament mesa]

#discord-bots message

[hasty iron]

they already have once since they're on replit

[lament mesa]

i think they want a custom domain

[hasty iron]

oh

[stark hearth]

will there be updates in discord.py for now on?

[spring flax]

nope

[drifting arrow]

Is there any way I can align "uses" to the right?

so it looks neater.

[bitter depot]

Yes

You can use rjust

!d str.rjust

[unkempt canyon]

str.rjust

str.rjust(width[, fillchar])```
Return the string right justified in a string of length *width*. Padding is done using the specified *fillchar* (default is an ASCII space). The original string is returned if *width* is less than or equal to `len(s)`.

[bitter depot]

!e py print("hello") print("s") print("s".rjust(5))

the code and the error coming when i m running the command

[slate swan]

you use it wrong

probably

[turbid pivot]

me?

[slate swan]

yes

[bitter depot]

Having units line up with your hundreds smh. At the very least zfill please

[lyric moat]

why it gives error when i try i:

[slate swan]

lambda

not lamba

[lyric moat]

alright thanks

[slate swan]

and vaule?

[bitter depot]

!e py print(100) print(1) print("1".zfill(3)) @drifting arrow

[slate swan]

that also seems wrong...

[turbid pivot]

no i have used rightly

[slate swan]

whatchu type in discord

[lyric moat]

other error py interaction = await client.wait_for("select_option", check = lambda i: i.component[0].vaule == "A")

[slate swan]

where did you do this all

it has to be in an event or command

[bitter depot]

!e py print(100) print(1) print(f"{1:>3}")and this if you don't want the leading 0s @drifting arrow

[unkempt canyon]

@bitter depot :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

[turbid pivot]

++tempmute {user} 1d {reason}

[slate swan]

1d is a string

[lyric moat]

send full code?

[slate swan]

you see

[lyric moat]

@client.command()
async def selectmenu(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Pick one of the buttons.", componets = [Select(placeholder="Select One Of The Values", options=[SelectOption(label="A", value="A"), SelectOption(label="B", vaule="B")])])

interaction = await client.wait_for("select_option", 
check = lambda i: i.component[0].vaule == "A")

await intercation.respond(content = f"You have selected `{interaction.componet[0]. label}`")```

[slate swan]

that's a name error with intercation

but that's not for now

[drifting arrow]

well uhh this is confusing.. ```py
mystatuses += (f"{str(self.stats[x]['Uses']).zfill(3)} \n")

[slate swan]

you indented wrong

[lyric moat]

me?

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def selectmenu(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Pick one of the buttons.", componets = [Select(placeholder="Select One Of The Values", options=[SelectOption(label="A", value="A"), SelectOption(label="B", vaule="B")])])

  interaction = await client.wait_for("select_option", 
check = lambda i: i.component[0].value == "A")

await interaction.respond(content = f"You have selected `{interaction.componet[0]. label}`")```

[lyric moat]

try that?

[slate swan]

look for your indents mate

and try not doing so many typos

[bitter depot]

So split it into a variablepy uses = self.stats[x]['Uses'] mystatuses += f"{uses:>3}\n"

Imo even justpy mystatuses += f"{self.stats[x]['users']:>3}\n"is an improvement

[turbid pivot]

so what should it be?

[bitter depot]

No centred under uses

[drifting arrow]

Now I feel violated coz the number is on the left and not centered or right ;-;

[slate swan]

maybe 1

[bitter depot]

Show your code

[slate swan]

how do you want to convert 1d to an int

[drifting arrow]

🤨 ...

[rare saddle]

thanks

[slate swan]

❓ ❔

[turbid pivot]

what does that means ?

[slate swan]

ints are numbers

blabla is not a number

[bitter depot]

You did ['users'] not ['uses'] there btw

[slate swan]

so you can't make blabla to a number

[turbid pivot]

so should i use 3600

[slate swan]

you can do that

[slate swan]

that's exactly the opposite of the tag

[lyric moat]

wsp with the error

[slate swan]

ctx.guild.default_role

[rare saddle]

thanks you

[slate swan]

you'res welcome

[bitter depot]

for value in self.stats.values():
    mystatname += f"{value['Name']}\n"
    mystatuses += f"{value['uses']:>3}\n"```try something like this maybe

[lyric moat]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("The bot is ready to be used!")
  DiscordComponents(client)```

anyone

[turbid pivot]

@slate swanty that worked

[reef shell]

[drifting arrow]

No changes @bitter depot

[boreal ravine]

event dont need ()

[lyric moat]

for which?

[slate swan]

????

[boreal ravine]

his last error lol

[lyric moat]

i am confused

[bitter depot]

What's the output when you print the variable

[slate swan]

the function definiton always has brackets

[lyric moat]

how i fix this?

[boreal ravine]

No he did @client.event()

[slate swan]

look at the code maybe

cuz he didn't

[boreal ravine]

well it looked liked it

[slate swan]

I dunno, that code just seems right

I don't know if he should put that discordcomponents stuff in on_ready

probably not

[drifting arrow]

[rare saddle]

Where can I see a list of all channel permissions?

[lyric moat]

so do i do @client.event()??

[slate swan]

no

!d discord.Member.permissions_in

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.permissions\_in

permissions_in(channel)```
An alias for [`abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for "discord.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for").

Basically equivalent to:

```py
channel.permissions_for(self)

[slate swan]

sheesh

[bitter depot]

Print it not send it

[slate swan]

@rare saddle

[rare saddle]

thanks you so much

[slate swan]

np

[drifting arrow]

@bitter depot

tbh i think it's just the way discord embs shit

coz it even removes spaces

[bitter depot]

yeah, discord does remove spaces

If it's all one string though it should work

[drifting arrow]

Apparently in embs as well. coz when I uglify it even more..

[bitter depot]

I mean that is correct though

It's alligned in the embeds

[drifting arrow]

indeed

so it's just a discord thing? just live with it? 🤔

[bitter depot]

Maybe do inline codeblock instead?

[drifting arrow]

oh

[bitter depot]

See how that looks

[drifting arrow]

so 1 `?

[bitter depot]

And would still format

[bitter depot]

yea

[drifting arrow]

What started off as a thing I thought would take an hr tops ended up with me spending like 3hrs on ;-;

[bitter depot]

Trust me that's normal in coding

[drifting arrow]

BUT OH BOY!

[inland quail]

​No Category:
  help Shows this message

Type $help command for more info on a command.
You can also type $help category for more info on a category.

[drifting arrow]

I got a whole new statistics thing

[bitter depot]

I guess it's still worth trying a zws

That might make discord keep the spaces

[drifting arrow]

@slate swan Lol

I am in certain discords.

What's ZWS?

[bitter depot]

!charinfo ​

[unkempt canyon]

Character Info

\u200b : ZERO WIDTH SPACE - ​

[bitter depot]

zero width space

1
​1

yeah

it works

Lemme just remember how to do this

[opaque trail]

THATS A THING?

[unkempt canyon]

str.rjust

str.rjust(width[, fillchar])```
Return the string right justified in a string of length *width*. Padding is done using the specified *fillchar* (default is an ASCII space). The original string is returned if *width* is less than or equal to `len(s)`.

[bitter depot]

f"{value['uses']:​>3}\n"```copy-paste this (it has the zws in it)

[bitter depot]

yep lol

[unkempt canyon]

Did you mean ...

defaultdict
mutable-default-args

[high flame]

there's many attr for str

[lyric moat]

whats the error..

[opaque trail]

the hell

[unkempt canyon]

def

8.7. Function definitions

A function definition defines a user-defined function object (see section The standard type hierarchy):

[high flame]

no ()

[lyric moat]

@opaque trail

[high flame]

event

[lyric moat]

where

[high flame]

bot.event

[opaque trail]

@bot.event without ()

[lyric moat]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("The bot is ready to be used!")
  DiscordComponents(client)```

but bot instead of client..?

[drifting arrow]

yes

[high flame]

You have client so use client ._.

[drifting arrow]

depends on what you are using tbh

[opaque trail]

yes

[lyric moat]

So how i fix it

[drifting arrow]

im using bot so bot for me

[opaque trail]

just use that code

[lyric moat]

i did

[opaque trail]

and it should be fine

[lyric moat]

i have it

[opaque trail]

ok and does it work

[lyric moat]

nope

[opaque trail]

hm

[drifting arrow]

Also @bitter depot after this, I get to go back and add these new features to my fun facts code!

HECK YEAH!

[lyric moat]

this is confusing

[drifting arrow]

Welcome to code \o/

And remember to name stuff properly or else you'll wake up tomorrow being like 'dafuq is this shit do?' and spend like 10 minutes figuring it out

and never! EVER! leave your code on an error.

fix that error THEN go to bed.

Or leave a note.

[opaque trail]

i leave todos and errors when i push to github

menace to society

[drifting arrow]

You're why I have trust issues

[opaque trail]

I release releases on pypi that include errors 😈 😈 😈 😈

[calm ravine]

[opaque trail]

else_user = my_channel.overwrites_for(member)

[vestal owl]

shouldn't it be reg_users = my_channel.overwrites_for(member)

[vestal owl]

it didnt work

[slate swan]

no functionality difference

[vestal owl]

but still

it doesnt work

[slate swan]

that's still not useful

[vestal owl]

you want the error

[slate swan]

of course

[vestal owl]

there is none

[slate swan]

no error

[vestal owl]

the code just doesn't function as intended

[slate swan]

what does it do

[vestal owl]

as in, when I use my ALT account to view the same channel, it should not be able to send messages in the channel because it didn't register by reacting to the emote

but it can send messages

[slate swan]

discord config issue?

[vestal owl]

im not sure to be honest

[slate swan]

should be

if he's not in the list

[vestal owl]

then what do I do?

[slate swan]

a config problem

[vestal owl]

there is no feedback from console

[slate swan]

check your channel configurations in the server

[vestal owl]

or maybe my code is messed up

[slate swan]

dunno

[vestal owl]

what are channel configurations

like how I set up the server?

the settings right

[slate swan]

yes

[vestal owl]

I checked

nothing is off

maybe its my code

[lyric moat]

bro this error

can someone help?

[slate swan]

discord.py is kinda outdated, idk if buttons work on that, try py-cord

[hasty iron]

they do, you can use 2.0

they have views

[slate swan]

hey again
i want to make a log for lets say if someone joins the general call, in a text channel it tags the user and say that he joined
my current code is

@commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_voice_state_update(self, ctx, before, after):
    logschannel = 886341890734186536
    if before.channel is None and after.channel is not None:
        if after.channel.id == 886331304944214077:
            await ctx.logschannel.send("Alarm!")

[valid perch]

And...? Whats the last part, I.e your question / error so we can help

[slate swan]

https://pastebin.com/210gcv5G

for some reason all the perms are the same

[hoary gust]

My dashboard working now

[slate swan]

when accessing the value of the key from old_perms they're the same as the ones when i'm looping in after.overwrites (i printed them out, they were the same)

[hoary gust]

@slate swan can I ask u a question?

[slate swan]

what

[hoary gust]

I mean if want to send a msg that I typed in the dashboard but it's not a event nor a cmd so how can I make my bot send the msg

[slate swan]

idk, never made a dashboard

[hoary gust]

I mean is there anything in the dpy lib that can do this

[hasty iron]

discord.py isnt for web

[slate swan]

idk any

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron I don't mean that

[slate swan]

as i said never made a dashboard

[hasty iron]

a non-web lib having web features

seems a bit unlikely

[hoary gust]

..

[hasty iron]

i know what you’re asking

[hoary gust]

I mean I want to send a msg from my dashboard but what shall I use in dpy that can help me send the msg cause it is not a cmd nor a event so is there anything else

[hasty iron]

make something yourself, dpy offers nothing to do what you’re thinking

[hoary gust]

I mean any tasks or something like that?

[hasty iron]

tasks?

[valid perch]

You can use ipc for the link, then that calls a function on your bot

https://github.com/Ext-Creators/discord-ext-ipc

[hasty iron]

actually wont you have to write js to make something like user input and make it show

[hoary gust]

@valid perch I am just trying to send a msg but how cause if I even set a msg in dashboard and sent it from there then how will it get triggered in the bot

Cause it's not a cmd nor event

And that's the place I am getting confused

[hasty iron]

how would the bot know where to send the message

[valid perch]

Ipc can be used in your dashboard and it'll talk to your bot. Essentially it calls a function on your bot, then in the function you can get channels, send messages, etc. See the docs for the link I sent.

[hoary gust]

Ok

[slate swan]

heyo guys if i use prefixes.json and upload it to github will it still work??

cause i use heroku

[slate swan]

help

me

[valid perch]

Probably better to use an external database

[reef trail]

is there a command decorator that allows a specific user do bypass perms? like how there's one for roles, is there one for users?

[slate swan]

whai bro

[reef shell]

i have the same question

i use heroku for now

[waxen granite]

    futuredate = datetime.datetime.utcnow() + timedelta(seconds=timewait)
TypeError: function missing required argument 'year' (pos 1)```

[reef trail]

why wouldn't it?

[slate swan]

can we both work together to test and find out

[reef shell]

and if i ignore the file will it work?

[slate swan]

ok i will try

[reef shell]

in .gitignore

[reef trail]

put the file name in there

and GitHub will ignore it

[slate swan]

@reef shell can we work together??

to find out

[reef shell]

My question is everytime i push to heorku master it will overwrite it r8?

[reef trail]

no?

well wdym by overwrite it

[reef shell]

cuz my local file is not updated

[slate swan]

well can we work together????????????

[reef trail]

It'll pull the changes you made into your current files

[slate swan]

ignored

[reef shell]

how lol

[reef trail]

[slate swan]

we can join a discord server lol a same one

? for just testing

[reef trail]

#discord-bots message

go read this pin

[reef shell]

I don't need this rn

so maybe later

[slate swan]

ok

that is full error

[slate swan]

how can i fix this it says delete is not defined:

 await delete(guild.text_channels, reason=None)

[reef shell]

lmao what are you trying to do

it's TextChannel.delete() probably

[unkempt canyon]

NEGATORY.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[valid perch]

!d discord.TextChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.delete

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

Deletes the channel.

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

[reef shell]

you need to get a channel object first tho

someone help ??a

[dense walrus]

Can I have 2 same events in one cog? if yes, how do I do it?

[slate swan]

but why

[dense walrus]

I am checking 2 different thing on_member_update and I want to code it organized

I can stick with 1 function but I rather 2

[slate swan]

well, commands.Cog.listener would work in multiple cogs for sure

in 1 cog, idk....

[dense walrus]

mhm

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Cog.listener

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Cog.listener

classmethod listener(name=None)```
A decorator that marks a function as a listener.

This is the cog equivalent of [`Bot.listen()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen "discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen").

[slate swan]

not said

[dense walrus]

well I'll just stick with 1 event itll be good

[slate swan]

well it doesn't have any pros to have it in 2 events....

anyone got the link to the github page where there was a list of bad words??

[dapper cobalt]

I believe that timedelta() requires a year argument.

[high flame]

nah

it doesn't require anything

!d datetime.timedelta

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.timedelta

class datetime.timedelta(days=0, seconds=0, microseconds=0, milliseconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, weeks=0)```
All arguments are optional and default to `0`. Arguments may be integers or floats, and may be positive or negative.

Only *days*, *seconds* and *microseconds* are stored internally. Arguments are converted to those units...

[high flame]

all are optional

[spare agate]

change_presence() missing 1 required positional argument: 'self', does anyone know how to fix it?

uhhh

you need to make an instance of bot o.O

[high flame]

ugh

you need a commands.Bot instance

and not copy paste it in your code

ok

you have bot?

or client

or whatever your commands.Bot is, just use it instead of commands.Bot

[slate swan]

how to make a bot to send message in one channel

[kindred epoch]

use get_channel to get the channel by using its id and then use .send to send a message to that channel

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_channel

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

do you own the server?

[slate swan]

yes

the server im tryna get the inv from

Then no problem, i just reminded you

is the bot private or public?

Hmm, I mean, it could be kinda mean if your bot is invited to a private server and it sends you an invite

[reef shell]

it could also used for other things

[slate swan]

nothing...

[hasty iron]

what a smart look up

[kindred epoch]

👏

[reef shell]

Indeed

[wicked atlas]

I mean, you spelled inviting wrong, but I don't think its going to be written exactly in the TOs

Welp, I guess when people invite the bot they do consent for it to be creating invites since it's a permission

[reef shell]

And you are helping him

[wicked atlas]

Well I just realized this

Although would not suggest doing it. People don't like that sort of thing.

[reef shell]

He's gonna end up getting reported if his bot ever be used in public/private servers

[wicked atlas]

Yup.

any way to access someones profile banner while using dpy before 2.0

Hello guys I wanna get into coding python discord bots but because discord.py is dead what would be the best alternative ?

It's not dead, yet. But you can start to use a fork of discord.py

@hasty iron @reef shell got it thank u guys

all forks are shit lol

🙏

[quiet coral]

I was looking into pycord is it the same syntax with discord.py?

[wicked atlas]

Not sure

Honestly some forks I would suggest over others, since they don't change it too much

[slate swan]

Use disnake

You've got the best implementation of slashes so far and the lib is really up-to-date unlike other libs in some parts

The syntax is identical to the one of dpy 2.0

[quiet coral]

I’m gonna give it a try thnx for the recommendation

vc = ctx.voice_client

    with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(YDL_OPTIONS) as ydl:
        info = ydl.extract_info(url, download=False)
        url2 = info['formats'][0]['url']
        source = await discord.FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe(url2, **FFMPEG_OPTIONS)
        vc.play(source)
        await ctx.send(f"Now Playing {url}")```

[hasty iron]

!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.

For reference, this usage is covered by the following clauses in YouTube's TOS, as of 2021-03-17:

The following restrictions apply to your use of the Service. You are not allowed to:

1. access, reproduce, download, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, alter, modify or otherwise use any part of the Service or any Content except: (a) as specifically permitted by the Service;  (b) with prior written permission from YouTube and, if applicable, the respective rights holders; or (c) as permitted by applicable law;

3. access the Service using any automated means (such as robots, botnets or scrapers) except: (a) in the case of public search engines, in accordance with YouTube’s robots.txt file; (b) with YouTube’s prior written permission; or (c) as permitted by applicable law;

9. use the Service to view or listen to Content other than for personal, non-commercial use (for example, you may not publicly screen videos or stream music from the Service)

oh right youtube hates music bots

it’s called copyright laws

you could use your own music and only ncs music

[slate swan]

Sending logs each 15 seconds shouldn't be API abusing right? I have events for whenever a Role is changed/added/deleted, when a member/user updates their profile and all the other events which are appended to a list making a list of embeds and with a task.loop I'm having it send using the embeds kwarg via a webhook in the logs channel

Shouldn't be too spammy right?

[hasty iron]

yeah

i thought of saying to use a semaphore or a lock then at second thought, that wouldn’t work

[wicked atlas]

Depends on the ratelimits

Webhooks have a ratelimit that I think is about 30 messages per 10 minutes per channel

Something close to that

[hasty iron]

actually, a lock would work

[slate swan]

Huh

I think I've sent more than 30 messages in 10 minutes

[kindred epoch]

same

[slate swan]

Idk what that is 😔

[hasty iron]

nevermind it, i am dumb

but if you’re curious, its a asyncio.Lock

[wicked atlas]

Ok, just looked it up. It's like 30/minute

Or something

[slate swan]

Ah 30 messages/minute sounds good

Since I can send 10 embeds per message

That would mean 300 embeds per minute 😱

[flat solstice]

DMs to a member who has DMs closed falls under HTTP Exceptions right?py elif isinstance(error, discord.HTTPException): await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(title="Unknown HTTP Exception", description=f"Please report this in the support server.\n`{error.text}`", colour=self.bot.error_colour,))

[median isle]

whats the error here

[vale pendant]

I don't think you can put a number in the name when you are defining a command

so instead of _8ball, try _ball

[flat solstice]

it should accept it with a _8ball, now 8ball itself will probs produce a error

[vale pendant]

yes 8ball itself will produce a error but maybe _8ball might as well

[hasty iron]

it wont

[vale pendant]

but then again, we don't know the error

[hasty iron]

also killmode command seems kinda

uh

[vale pendant]

lmao

[hasty iron]

spammy?

wait, why would you need that member var.

[slate swan]

Why my slash command dont work?

[reef shell]

you don't need to use .flatten() if you use guild.members

is that a question?

[slate swan]

bro it just created more errors

[reef shell]

ok nvm use fetch_members then

but what errors did you get in the first place

[slate swan]

Why my slash command dont work?

[median isle]

yes

i cant run the bot

[flat solstice]

so what error is it giving you in the terminal

[reef shell]

why are you showing the token lol

tokens are meant to be kept secret

[slate swan]

I can regenerate it thats not problem slash is the problem

okay

didn't work

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(**kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

New in version 1.5...

[stark hearth]

did you try guild = guild.members ?

wait nm you did

hold on

try client.get_guild(GUILD ID) @slate swan

[slate swan]

I think /commands are only for professional bots like arcane and stuff and you leaked your token that's meant to be a secret that's your bots password

[stark hearth]

they regenerated it

they realized lol

[slate swan]

Ok good lmao

[slate swan]

Ikr

[neat bridge]

For debug/testing, append guilds_ids = [] so @slash.slash(name = name, guild_ids = []) and add the guild id of your test server.

[slate swan]

I thought that was a discord feature only lmao

[stark hearth]

also try adding enabling intents in your bot and add this your main script

client = Bot(command_prefix="prefix", intents=intents)
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True

[midnight oyster]

Are there any python libraries that support / commands?

[hardy yoke]

by April next year all bots need to convert to slash commands (unless it's in less than 100 servers and doesn't intend to grow). Some bots might get exceptions (like mod bots)

how can i make it so i dont have to mention a role i can just type the role name but it still works

[dapper cobalt]

Why did you define intents after client?

[dapper cobalt]

Typehint your argument to discord.Role and it will take a mention, name, or even ID.

!d discord.Role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role

class discord.Role```
Represents a Discord role in a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild")...

[slate swan]

say whatt

Typehint??

[dapper cobalt]

Typehint means something:something.

For example:

async def rolename(ctx, role:discord.Role):
  print(role.name)

[slate swan]

oh i have tha

[dapper cobalt]

Then you already don't need to mention the role.

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def role(ctx, member:discord.Member,role:discord.Role):
await bot.fetch_ctx.guild.roles()
await member.add_roles(role)
embed = discord.Embed(description=f"{check} gave {role.name} to {member}",color=color)
await ctx.send(embed=embed)

its not gonna make me mention?

[dapper cobalt]

You don't need to, no.

What's fetch_ctx?

Remove the await bot.fetch_ctx.guild.roles() since it will just raise an error.

[slate swan]

yea ik i fixed it

[slate swan]

do you think i'll get terminated for having this watchinf thing in my status, even tho i'm using a google extension

[dapper cobalt]

No, Discord doesn't care about that afaik.

[slate swan]

because like i know you could do the activities with a selfbot so i jsut wanna make sure i don't get terminated

[midnight oyster]

like

if I do kill @testguy the bot will say @rugged tinsel killed @testguy

or something like that

[drifting arrow]

so like $kill @taggedperson
@Gnomeslayer killed @taggedperson?

[rugged tinsel]

yes

[drifting arrow]

Just get the mentions.

Create a new command called "kill" or whatever you want.
Then grab the mention of the author. and the person they mentioned

[rugged tinsel]

ahh ok

No worries mate

No need for age here adrian

[sick talon]

you can use arguments

@bot.command()
async def kill(ctx, user : discord.Member):
    await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} killed {user.mention}")

[drifting arrow]

😮

[rugged tinsel]

tysm bro!

[drifting arrow]

dont give him the answers! I get yelled at whenever I do it. stop it. @sick talon

[rugged tinsel]

why? is it againest the rules?

[drifting arrow]

idk probably. something something spoonfeeding etc.

[rugged tinsel]

oh

[sick talon]

oh ok sorry

didn't knew about it

[drifting arrow]

tbh i have nothing against it. Sometimes people need examples to learn

It's just all the whining and nagging. gets at ya.

Anyway

@rugged tinsel @sick talon this is what I wrote

@commands.command(help='[Pew Pew.]')
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def kill(self,ctx, member : discord.Member):
        if ctx.author.mention == member.mention:
            await ctx.send(f'{ctx.author.mention} has just killed himself.. for the 16th time..')
        else:
            await ctx.send(f'{ctx.author.mention} has killed {member.mention}. <Sigh> _Not again._')

took some creative liberties

Could even create a list of random remarks the bot will append to the end of the 'kill'

[rugged tinsel]

nice!

[fleet oracle]

help, how can i make when i can't find a user, send a message?

[sick talon]

noice

[drifting arrow]

Like if the member isn't in the server?

[sick talon]

When a user didn't mention a user ?

[fleet oracle]

yes, but also when they simply put a letter or word

[drifting arrow]

use a try/except?

[fleet oracle]

not necessarily

[fleet oracle]

I was testing, but it goes without it

[sick talon]

wdym ?

[drifting arrow]

This is the error you'll get if you cant ban someone discord.ext.commands.errors.MemberNotFound: Member "@Oliveoil#9305#212" not found. so either yeet a try/except in there or search the actual discord for its members

[fleet oracle]

?

I do not talk a lot of english, sorry
