[patent ivy]

getting a bit confused between default parameters and whatever these are

[hasty iron]

thats a default parameter

[patent ivy]

👍

so is there a context equivalent to purge?

[hasty iron]

what

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=None, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own (unless you are a user account). The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Internally, this employs a different number of strategies depending on the conditions met such as if a bulk delete is possible or if the account is a user bot or not.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages

Context.channel can return a TextChannel object

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pydis.com/

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

help

why it cannot fetch the guy to fm

can anyone help

[patent ivy]

channel = ctx.channel
await purge(channel, limit=amount)```

or is it py await channel.purge(limit=amount)

[hardy yew]

ok

[slate swan]

await ctx.channel.purge(limit = amount)

[hasty iron]

isnt it obvious

[patent ivy]

no

I tried both

got it working

[slate swan]

it is so obvios

[patent ivy]

I don't know why you all expect me to understand everything

im 40 minutes in

[hasty iron]

because discord.py expects you to know basics of python

[slate swan]

yes

discord.py is advanced

[patent ivy]

how do I write descriptions for my commands

[slate swan]

did you define client or bot

[stark bobcat]

i am using cogs

[patent ivy]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="$")

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send(f"Pong! {round(client.latency * 1000)}ms")

@client.command()
async def purge(ctx, amount:int=1):

    channel = ctx.channel

    await channel.purge(limit=amount+1)
    await ctx.send(f'Deleted {amount} message(s)')```

[stark bobcat]

bot

[slate swan]

self.bot

[hasty iron]

you can use a docstring

[stark bobcat]

oh

[patent ivy]

thx

[slate swan]

then it should be ```py
@client.command(description = "this is the command description")
.
.
.

[hasty iron]

def foo():
  """ this is a doc string """

[stark bobcat]

@slate swan so
@commands.command() async def latency(self, ctx): await self.bot.ctx.send(bot.latency)

smth like this?

[hasty iron]

AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'ctx'

and also NameError

[patent ivy]

sorry if this is a dumb question but can you put a variable into a docstring

[slate swan]

its just ctx.send , self.botwont be required
also in the message to send , it should be self.bot

[hasty iron]

why

[patent ivy]

I want to put the prefix into the description

[hasty iron]

then just put it?

[slate swan]

use a f string

[stark bobcat]

uh what

[hasty iron]

no need for a variable

[stark bobcat]

wym

[slate swan]

run your current code and you'll realise what i mean

[stark bobcat]

i get this error when i run it

[hasty iron]

lol

[slate swan]

how would i use avconv with discord.FFmpegPCMAudio class? i set the executable paramater as "C:\Users\jjsav\Desktop\Discord Bot\data\usr\bin\avconv.exe" and it still wont work

set that variable as an attribute of your Bot instance then sure

like this ```py
@bot.command()
async def a(ctx):
ctx.bot.a = 10

@bot.command()

that should work(?)

hm

ill try it thanks

[crystal cliff]

Is that a calculator? 🤔

[hasty iron]

no

its just an exaample

thats the same thing as ytdl lol?

it uses youtube

[slate swan]

it can use other platforms like soundcloud and spotify as well

[hasty iron]

and you think they allow streaming?

[bitter depot]

Both of which also don't allow this

[hasty iron]

copyright laws apply to any platform

[bitter depot]

I'm afraid music bots aren't really a possibility

[slate swan]

dont they , i didnt knew

[hasty iron]

If you want to use the bot solely to listen to Spotify music with friends, you should use the native feature instead. ... Full integration isn't possible because Spotify does not allow you to stream or download full tracks per its Terms of Service, but this is a reasonable alternative.

And how can i make an explanation for an command while others are typing something like other bots have?

[novel rampart]

:wtfff:

what is wrong

[dense walrus]

is there a Message.type of a spotify listen along invitation?

[ashen gale]

trying to get my bot to send random messages at infinite

does this look good?

[novel rampart]

[hasty iron]

that wont work

games is a function

which is not an iterable

[ashen gale]

i defined a list called games

[hasty iron]

you're overriding it

[ashen gale]

how do i fix it then?

[hasty iron]

name the function soemthing else

[ashen gale]

such as?

[hasty iron]

_games and in @client.command pass in name='games'

[ashen gale]

...huh?

[hasty iron]

huh?

[ashen gale]

so what do i change the pass_context = true to?

[hasty iron]

just remove it, it does nothing

[ashen gale]

ah

so renaming the function is all i need to do?

[kindred epoch]

Ye

[ashen gale]

and once i input the command once, it will keep going?

[kindred epoch]

No

[ashen gale]

how do i keep it going?

[kindred epoch]

Use a loop

[hasty iron]

what do you mean by "keep it going"

[kindred epoch]

And sending it every 1 second is not good

[ashen gale]

i want it to send a message, wait for a random amount of time, and do it over again

[kindred epoch]

Use a while loop

[ashen gale]

how would i format it for this?

[kindred epoch]

If you know python enough then you should be able to do it without any help

[ashen gale]

sorry am kinda new to python

[dim wing]

is there an equivalent software of ffmpeg to use in linux?

or can i play audio without ffmpeg?

[kindred epoch]

Sorry but you need to learn more first, while loops are kinda basic level.

Discord.py is a hard library

And its not ment for people who are new to python

                ("Roles", len(ctx.guild.roles), True),

            embed.add_field(name=name, value=value, inline=inline)

        await ctx.send(embed=embed)

My code doesn't give me any errors it just doesn't work

It shows up with my "help" command and when I type it, it doesn't do ANYTHING, no error, no embed, nothing

[boreal ravine]

@crude crater case_insensitive=True kwarg please lol

[crude crater]

And don't even say anything about the aliases, I tried the case_insensitive

Oop

I already knew someone would mention that lmfao

[kindred epoch]

If any of the value or name is empty in the field then it won't work

[hasty iron]

("Owner", ctx.guild.owner, True), this can error when sending

Guild.owner can be None

use Guild.get_member(Guild.owner_id) instead

[crude crater]

That wont work for me

[crude crater]

And the field isn't empty is it?

[hasty iron]

what

why not?

[crude crater]

I'm pretty new to coding lol

[kindred epoch]

?

[crude crater]

It wont

[hasty iron]

why wont it

have you tried it

[crude crater]

Yes

And it wont work lmfao

[hasty iron]

what did you exactly try

[crude crater]

Using "py Guild.get_member(Guild.owner_id)" instead

whoops lmaoo

[hasty iron]

thats not how you do it

you need an instance of Guild

you can get one with ctx.guild

[crude crater]

I don't know if you saw my code but that's what I kinda did lol

[hasty iron]

read what i said

i said that Guild.owner can be None

and it can error when sending the embed

[crude crater]

So then what I do to fix it

[kindred epoch]

?

[hasty iron]

i already told you

man can you read

or are you new to that too

[crude crater]

I barely even speak English lmao

[hasty iron]

yeah sure, scroll up and read what i said

[crude crater]

It's not my first language so yeah I am kinda new to it 😐

[hasty iron]

here it is

[crude crater]

And then when I use this it doesn't work

I already said this

[hasty iron]

because you did it wrong

[crude crater]

How so?

[hasty iron]

and i already said why its wrong

[full lily]

you're struggling because a discord bot isn't a beginner project

[crude crater]

Yeah I know lol

I have a fully functional moderation bot, ticket bot, and utility bot though so I can get it done but I just can't figure out why this command wont work

Also, someone told me to get a error handler, what's the command in this discord to do that again?

[hasty iron]

a command won't give you one

!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")).

[hasty iron]

there is the event's reference

build one based on that

[upbeat otter]

Guys, why does this not give me the ID of the server?

guildid = client.get_guild(int(ctx.guild.id))

[kindred epoch]

?

What are you doing

You know ctx.guild.id is the same thing as what you're doing

[upbeat otter]

what i am doing is right?

[kindred epoch]

No

[upbeat otter]

then?

plz tell

[kindred epoch]

Your getting the guild id by the guild id

[slate swan]

😹😹

[upbeat otter]

.....................

im so damn dumb

imma go cry

[kindred epoch]

Ok

[slate swan]

issa learning process

[upbeat otter]

thanku tho

[kindred epoch]

Np

[slate swan]

my pfp would be so good if i had nitro

Why not

Just download the Linux version of it

[slate swan]

[hasty iron]

buy a vps

[twilit adder]

repl sucks pp

[lucid ravine]

any recommendations?

ok

[kindred epoch]

I use vultr

Works perfectly

With a db hosted on it

And ik that's bad

But I have no choice

Ping always stays around 20

[reef shell]

Vultr is free?

[kindred epoch]

No

Ofc not

[reef shell]

Cheaper than galaxygate?

[kindred epoch]

Yes

[reef shell]

mhm

Nice

[reef shell]

Why tho

[kindred epoch]

Idr but it's bad

[crystal cliff]

Vultr was 💩 for me, custom service weren’t very helpful. 😥

[crystal cliff]

What’s galaxygate? Try digitalocean instead. 👍🏼

[reef shell]

duh

digital ocean is too much expensive

[crystal cliff]

You get a trial then, leave then rejoin lol

[reef shell]

eh?

then the credit card gets blocked

[rough flicker]

can someone help me with my discord bot?

[reef shell]

just ask

[crystal cliff]

You should know about everything, @reef shell lol

[crystal cliff]

What do, you need help with?

[rough flicker]

its a chat bot but it wont reply to multiple word commands how can i do that?

[reef shell]

bruh if it was possible then nobody would buy their service lol

[slate nymph]

async def print(ctx,*args)
Why is * used near args?

[full lily]

!args-kwargs

[unkempt canyon]

*args and **kwargs

These special parameters allow functions to take arbitrary amounts of positional and keyword arguments. The names args and kwargs are purely convention, and could be named any other valid variable name. The special functionality comes from the single and double asterisks (*). If both are used in a function signature, *args must appear before **kwargs.

Single asterisk
*args will ingest an arbitrary amount of positional arguments, and store it in a tuple. If there are parameters after *args in the parameter list with no default value, they will become required keyword arguments by default.

Double asterisk
**kwargs will ingest an arbitrary amount of keyword arguments, and store it in a dictionary. There can be no additional parameters after **kwargs in the parameter list.

Use cases
• Decorators (see !tags decorators)
• Inheritance (overriding methods)
• Future proofing (in the case of the first two bullet points, if the parameters change, your code won't break)
• Flexibility (writing functions that behave like dict() or print())

See !tags positional-keyword for information about positional and keyword arguments

[neon hazel]

Hello. Is there any way to wait for a reaction OR a message? I want the bot to work with what it receives first (i.e. with a reaction or message), not with something definite

[stiff nexus]

how do i make like this?
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/829947392651427860/888487519501566032/unknown.png

[boreal ravine]

o

[stiff nexus]

yes

[slate nymph]

i was using discord.client for my bot earlier now i m using discord.command i used to use py -3 for hosting my bot locally while using client what should i do for discord.command?

[kindred epoch]

Use Filezilla

[crystal cliff]

I know that now 🤣

[kindred epoch]

What do you mean by discord.commmand

[slate nymph]

discord.ext.command

bot basically

[kindred epoch]

Lol

[kindred epoch]

Same thing then

[slate nymph]

i dont know but it doesnt work

if i run py -3 index.py in terminal

[kindred epoch]

It does not matter if you change it from discord.cleint to commands.bot, running the bot stays the same

[slate nymph]

oh

so whats the problem

[kindred epoch]

Idk

Does it send any error?

[slate nymph]

no it just doesnt load

like if i used to write it in a client server it used to say connected to lemontreebot

[kindred epoch]

Can you send an image of u doing it

[slate nymph]

i m not on pc

sorry

[kindred epoch]

What do you have in the file

What kind of stuff

[slate nymph]

let me login through the pc real quick

[kindred epoch]

Ok

And do you have an on_ready event?

[slate nymph]

nope

OHHH

[crystal cliff]

You don’t need that

[kindred epoch]

Does it print anything when the file is loaded?

[slate nymph]

Wow you already solved my problem

i didnt care about onready

[crystal cliff]

You can add that, to keep_alive.py file

[maiden fable]

How to make @commands.command return a custom class?

[kindred epoch]

It's a good practice to have that so you know when the bot is ready

[crystal cliff]

True, 🤔

[kindred epoch]

Repl.it is not recommended to host a bot

[crystal cliff]

You could add bot online to keep_alive.py

[slate nymph]

is onready in ext.command different from that of discord.client please tell me

[kindred epoch]

Not really

No is what I mean

[stiff nexus]

how do i make like this?

like ?ping 5 it should send the ping cmd 5 times

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/829947392651427860/888487519501566032/unknown.png

[kindred epoch]

Use counter variables

I'm sure there better ways but that's the only thing I can think of rn

[brazen seal]

Where i can find tutorial for make temporary mute role

[kindred epoch]

And while loop

[maiden fable]

Yo Sasuke

ik that but how do it in the code

[brisk helm]

This is just past of the code

[kindred epoch]

If you know then why are you asking how to do it in code

[stiff nexus]

bruh

idk how to do itin the cmd

thats what i said

[kindred epoch]

So you want me to make you the command?

Try something that you feel will work, if it does not then ask help for it by sending it here

[lament mesa]

@commands.command(cls=CustomCommandClass)

[maiden fable]

oh, thanks 😄

[lament mesa]

😄

[stiff nexus]

no

[rough flicker]

anyone know how to create a muti-word command for a chat bot? like "I'm fine" instead of "Fine"

well you could try this?

ctx.message.author.mention

instead of all that

like my code is

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
async def Hi(ctx):
await ctx.send(f"Hi {ctx.message.author.mention}👋 ")

yeah i mean

._. yeah just- use the command i showed you right now?

i was giving you an example code

[rough flicker]

HELPPP

i was first

[maiden fable]

Calm down lemme see

[rough flicker]

i dont have anything to show 😛

[lament mesa]

Can you show the decorator

[maiden fable]

urllib is blocking

[rough flicker]

im tryna do a code that allows mutliple words as the command

[maiden fable]

    @commands.command(help="Set an AI Chat Channel", cls=Command, custom_id="set_channel")

[rough flicker]

then spits out a random output from a list

[stiff nexus]

but why

[maiden fable]

cz it isn't async.....?

Don't ask me why it isn't async cz idk

[stiff nexus]

query = async quote_plus(roles.colour)

@maiden fable did not work

[lament mesa]

Command.__init__ doesn't take *args

[maiden fable]

I know, it takes in func.. So I should add func instead?

[lament mesa]

yeah

[maiden fable]

Oh ok

[stiff nexus]

@maiden fable help.........?

[maiden fable]

Lemme see

[maiden fable]

sorry bro, never used urllib :c

I think it works, lemme fix this error

[stiff nexus]

ok

[stiff nexus]

i will be here

[maiden fable]

not talking to u

[stiff nexus]

-_-

[compact ruin]

i have cut the irrelevant parts out to make it more simple

[maiden fable]

sorry

[stiff nexus]

ok

[maiden fable]

@lament mesa doesn't work

-_- bruhhhh

AttributeError: 'Command' object has no attribute 'custom_id'

[lament mesa]

Try printing the type of it

[maiden fable]

???

type of?

[vale root]

Idk is this has to do with python this has nothing to do with my bot but

im trying to listen to music with a bot and i cant hear it but others can

Why?

[slate swan]

have u got it muted 🤔

[hasty iron]

probably because Command has __slots__ defined(?)

that’s the only thing i can think of that could be causing your issue

[maiden fable]

Ah, totally forgot about that.. Well for now, I am using the command name to test the command and will look into that afterwards

[hasty iron]

from what i can see in the source code theyre not sloted

[maiden fable]

:c

[rough flicker]

can i get someone who is good at coding discord bots to 1 on 1 with me and help me build mine?

its my first bot and i want help so i can understand it then i can build it better from there

[slate swan]

how do i invoke a command in a cog class???

is it self.command.invoke?

[maiden fable]

ctx.invoke

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.invoke

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.invoke

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

Calls a command with the arguments given.

This is useful if you want to just call the callback that a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") holds internally.

Note

This does not handle converters, checks, cooldowns, pre-invoke, or after-invoke hooks in any matter. It calls the internal callback directly as-if it was a regular function.

You must take care in passing the proper arguments when using this function...

[lament mesa]

cmd

[pliant gulch]

Rename the class incase of it getting shadowed, and call super().__init__(. . .) after setting the attribute

The decorator is right as well

[maiden fable]

Ah ok

[rough flicker]

so nobody can?

[slate swan]

thanks so much!

[storm zodiac]

!code

greeting = ["Hello", "Hey", "Heya", "Hello, world!", "Howdy", "My creators are Deme and Carlos"]

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
async def Hi(ctx):
    await ctx.send(f" (random.choice(greeting)) {ctx.message.author.mention}")

so

[wicked atlas]

I don't do help through DMs

[rough flicker]

I want it to send a random greeting not print (random.choice(greeting))

@wicked atlas can you help me with that?

[lucid ravine]

ok thanks

[wicked atlas]

f-string values need to go between {}

[reef shell]

{random.choice(greeting)}

[wicked atlas]

!strings

[unkempt canyon]

Creating a Python string with your variables using the + operator can be difficult to write and read. F-strings (format-strings) make it easy to insert values into a string. If you put an f in front of the first quote, you can then put Python expressions between curly braces in the string.

>>> snake = "pythons"
>>> number = 21
>>> f"There are {number * 2} {snake} on the plane."
"There are 42 pythons on the plane."

Note that even when you include an expression that isn't a string, like number * 2, Python will convert it to a string for you.

[rough flicker]

OHHH

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THAT!

[reef shell]

🗿

@wicked atlas the lib you are working on..
Does this supports dpy?

[rough flicker]

but now theres an error with the {}??

[wicked atlas]

It's not a dpy lib, it's standalone

[reef shell]

I mean can it be used as an exten.

Oh

[rough flicker]

@reef shell do you see a problem with it?

[wicked atlas]

Single quote strings can't be multiline

[reef shell]

[wicked atlas]

Either use a newline character, or use multiline strings

"firstline\nsecondline"
"""firstline
secondline"""

[rough flicker]

okay got it thanks

[reef shell]

also you don't need to set that pass_context attr.

It is by default True

[rough flicker]

oh hey @reef shell how can i use mutliple word inputs?

so instead of just saying fine i can say Im fine

and the bot will know that i want a reply?

[reef shell]

Show your command code?

async def cmd_name(ctx, *, message):```

[rough flicker]

!code

greeting = ["Hello", "Hey", "Heya", "Hello, world!", "Howdy", "My creators are Deme and Carlos"]

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
async def Hi(ctx):
    await ctx.send(f"{random.choice(greeting)}{ctx.message.author.mention}")

thats what i got

[reef shell]

Do you want your bot to take input from you?

[rough flicker]

yes

its supposed to be a chat bot

[reef shell]

Then make another command for it

[rough flicker]

yes i know

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

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

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

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

[rough flicker]

but i want it to reply to Im fine

not just fine like in this bit of code

[dapper cobalt]

You can use an API or a package.

[reef shell]

[dapper cobalt]

I know a good one, hold on.

[reef shell]

mhm there is an ai api

[dapper cobalt]

https://pypi.org/project/randomstuff.py/

[reef shell]

Or lib iirc

Not really ai

[rough flicker]

okay see

i want to be able to code it myself instead of having an api

[reef shell]

That would be a pain in the ass ngl

[dapper cobalt]

[rough flicker]

i know

[dapper cobalt]

When the world provides you an easy way to do something, don't try to take the hard way.

[rough flicker]

its my first bot so i wanna make it by coding the entirety of it

[reef shell]

Then read the docs first

[rough flicker]

T^T i know i know but i wanna make it myself my next bot ill use api

okay

[reef shell]

To have a basic knowledge

[rough flicker]

besides the point

how can i use multiple word inputs?

[slate swan]

.

[reef shell]

@slate swan Yo bingus

[river walrus]

So, I'm looking to create a python lib from scratch (for discord bots)
We're gonna look at djs and Sapphire's source code mostly
Is there anyone up to lend a had with the development?

[slate swan]

yo

[reef shell]

why not fork dpy

[hasty iron]

djs and whatever the other thing is which is probably not python as a reference for making a python lib?

doesnt sound too right

[slate swan]

lol

[reef shell]

wdym

[slate swan]

is it possible to make a restart command for my bot or a command to stop all commands? 🥺

[hasty iron]

basically shit forks

all of them

are bad

[river walrus]

Yeah but I mean converting the ideas (and obviously adding ours) to the python code

[hasty iron]

why not just use dpy as a reference

[slate swan]

how do i use discord.PCMVolumeTransformer is change volume? i use discord.PCMVolumeTransformer(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(), volume) and it does not seem to change the volume (i am using floating point numbers (1.0 2.0))

[reef shell]

i'm not sure but there is a module you can install which can do such things
It's called jishaku

[slate swan]

and what does it do?

[river walrus]

Cause dpy's cache is unstable
And I will look at dpy's source code too, just not the cache

[hasty iron]

unstable?

[reef shell]

debug and other stuffs

[hasty iron]

in what way

[slate swan]

oh

[reef shell]

Shutdown too

Not sure bout restart

[river walrus]

I heard from Favna (one of the djs devs) that if you touch the cache, it gets messy

[hasty iron]

well yes that’s normal, you aren’t supposed to

[river walrus]

Not supposed to happen with djs tho

[hasty iron]

i see

okay well, good luck

[river walrus]

Thanks

[reef shell]

@river walrus Which one is better iyo? dpy or djs

[hasty iron]

use whatever you like

[reef shell]

as you know both

[hasty iron]

there isn’t a "better"

[river walrus]

djs with Sapphire framework beats most of the dpy code in terms of convinience
But dpy's command handler is superior

Waaaay superior

[brazen seal]

why this command not work (I don't have any errors)

[river walrus]

Do you have the required intents?

[hasty iron]

what is your full code

[brazen seal]

Can you say more easier because my english is not good

[hasty iron]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pydis.com/

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

[brazen seal]

you mean imports?

[reef shell]

Bot's intents

[river walrus]

No, intents are like permissions for the bot
You have to define them when creating bot's instance

[brazen seal]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/voredabiqi.py

[river walrus]

Yeah you lack intents

[brazen seal]

Bot have Administrator permission

[wicked atlas]

Basic commands like that shouldn't require intents

Ah, I see

@brazen seal refer to this
#discord-bots message

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.process\_commands

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

This function processes the commands that have been registered to the bot and other groups. Without this coroutine, none of the commands will be triggered.

By default, this coroutine is called inside the [`on_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.on_message "discord.on_message") event. If you choose to override the [`on_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.on_message "discord.on_message") event, then you should invoke this coroutine as well.

This is built using other low level tools, and is equivalent to a call to [`get_context()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context "discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context") followed by a call to [`invoke()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke "discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke").

This also checks if the message’s author is a bot and doesn’t call [`get_context()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context "discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context") or [`invoke()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke "discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke") if so.

[slate swan]

Add that at the bottom of your on_message

[reef shell]

Also you should follow the naming Convention, using the name client for bots is not a good practice

[river walrus]

He's probably following a yt guide

[brazen seal]

so i should change all client to bot?

[river walrus]

That's how they use it mostly

[brazen seal]

yes

[reef shell]

if you want

[brazen seal]

im still learning

[river walrus]

Don't, yt tutorials are super weak
Refer to the documentation itself

[ionic wadi]

Ìs there a possibility to clear messages in an event?

Since I have an antispam but I want It to delete some messages after.

I know there is in commands, but not sure bout events.

[reef shell]

They are super misleading imo

[river walrus]

Yeah usually that's true

[brazen seal]

so i should change all client to bot?

[reef shell]

They make custom help commands for example

[river walrus]

Yes

[wicked atlas]

Theres also this guide here, but this requires a little bit of knowledge to begin
https://vcokltfre.dev/

[river walrus]

Thanks

[ionic wadi]

Please? I got threats of getting raided within 5 minutes so really need It.

[river walrus]

If you have a channel object, you can use purge

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=None, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own (unless you are a user account). The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Internally, this employs a different number of strategies depending on the conditions met such as if a bulk delete is possible or if the account is a user bot or not.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages

[river walrus]

[wicked atlas]

It's a method of text channel

You also don't need all those arguments, those are just defaults

[ionic wadi]

But I need It In an event?

How do I use It then?

[wicked atlas]

This event gives you a message object, which contains a text channel object

await message.channel.purge()

[river walrus]

So, is anyone interested in the project?

I can't do it all alone cause uni

blanket or perhaps Sherlock?

[slate swan]

can you even ask for that here?

[pliant gulch]

Why make a new library in the somewhat over saturated space of discord python api wrappers?

[river walrus]

I don't believe that's against the rules

[river walrus]

Because I want an actual functional library and not some shitty dpy wannabe fork frankly

[slate swan]

afaik you cant advertise your projects in help channels at least

[pliant gulch]

Well, setting websockets are easy you would need that for a few things. And slash commands and other interactions can be handled via an HTTP server such as fastapi

[river walrus]

"For questions and discussions"
So I believe it should be fine
Tho I am open to any concern

[river walrus]

I'll just use aiohttp since I heard it's the best for these stuff

[pliant gulch]

I'd rather use FastAPI here

[storm zodiac]

how can i fix unclosed session for aiohttp.ClientSession in a global var ?
current code

async def aiohttp_session():
    bot.aiosession = aiohttp.ClientSession()
    print("Making a ClientSession was successful")
bot.loop.run_until_complete(aiohttp_session())

[river walrus]

I'll take your suggestion into consideration, thanks

[slate swan]

is it possible to "whitelist" a command for bot developer? If it is please tell me how this is my code rn:

[river walrus]

I think there should be a bot.owner property

[pliant gulch]

I have a WIP websocket code I did a while back as well that I can send

[brazen seal]

Hey i have ask

How i can make time muted?

[pliant gulch]

It recv's and dispatches

[river walrus]

I'll give you the credit if I use it

[pliant gulch]

heartbeating and resuming is working afaik as well

I'll upload it to gist real quick

[river walrus]

Wdym

[pliant gulch]

https://gist.github.com/an-dyy/9193aede27fdcdc563c30fa2ce2f8161

[river walrus]

Got it, thanks

[pliant gulch]

It was very W.I.P I already stopped developing it so

[brazen seal]

I want make the bot give role muted for example 1h and after 1h removing it from person

[pliant gulch]

You will need to prob patch or clean it up

bad code as well could be a lot better

[river walrus]

You need a database for that

[brazen seal]

i have

[river walrus]

Still appreciate the help

[river walrus]

Which DB?

[brazen seal]

mysql and sqlite

[river walrus]

Sqlite is better option for discord bots

After Postgres ofc

[brazen seal]

mhm

where i find tutorial for this?

[river walrus]

just google sqlite python lib

And you'll find a good lib

[wicked atlas]

I think python comes with one actually

https://docs.python.org/3/library/sqlite3.html

[river walrus]

Didn't know that, thanks

I use Postgres myself

Since it's king

[dull birch]

Hbfgyhctf

[wicked atlas]

Yeah, sqlite is a bit hard to use with some things like docker

wrong macro 😔

[plucky shoal]

Please don't share such things here

[wicked atlas]

._.

[dull birch]

So i cant show sum i made with py

[hasty iron]

not so smart to nuke with a bot with your name in it

[plucky shoal]

Not things that break rules/tos

[reef shell]

Not something malicious

[river walrus]

I can assume an age range

[dull birch]

How

[river walrus]

You're nuking servers, ofc you're being malicious

[stark hearth]

it breachs the terms of services

[rough flicker]

@reef shell do you know how i can possibly use multiple inputs to run the line of code instead of just the one input

[dull birch]

Its my own server

[mortal mango]

As others have mentioned, sharing or discussing projects that are malicious is against our rules.

[dull birch]

It was just a test

[mortal mango]

Please remove that screenshot and refrain from continuing this discussion further.

[reef shell]

Use as many args you want in your command fuction

[river walrus]

It's like I shoot someone in the head and say it was a test bro

It's illegal

[rough flicker]

may you please give me an example then?

[dull birch]

How if its my server that only had me and my friend in it

[stark hearth]

bro just delete it and move on

that easy

[dull birch]

Ok

Ig ill leave

[mortal mango]

the project that can be used for malicious purposes is against our rules, even if you don't use it that way.

[stark hearth]

wha...

[dull birch]

Ig ill leave the server

[reef shell]

@bot.command()

[river walrus]

You don't need to

[stark hearth]

just delete it that simple

you dont have to leave the server

[river walrus]

Just don't ask for malicious code

[rough flicker]

thank you @reef shell

ima code it and ill let you know how it goes okie?

[stark hearth]

and he left

[reef shell]

Well i just gave you an idea

[river walrus]

Eh, for the best

[reef shell]

You have to implement on your own whatever the way you want it

[rough flicker]

mhm

[reef shell]

Rip hecker (nuker)

[rough flicker]

it didnt work though i changed out the arg,1, and stuff but no

[river walrus]

Funny enough that's my name on a server but I don't nuke lol

[reef shell]

They be like : oh yeah i have the admin perms why not nuke

[river walrus]

ikr

[bitter depot]

@reef shell @river walrus let's get back on topic please

[river walrus]

Yessir

[reef shell]

Alr

[slate swan]

guys, where should I put this await message.delete() so that the bot deletes its message and the player's message```py
@bot.command(pass_context = True, aliases = ["Sd","SD"])

async def sd(ctx):

 await ctx.send("Укажите STEAMID")

      return m.author.id == ctx.author.id

      embed.timestamp = datetime.utcnow()

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

?

[river walrus]

Is advertising my project (as in asking for help on it and the project isn't malicious) against the rules?

[rough flicker]

@reef shell what do i do if it didnt work?

[bitter depot]

You can't advertise, but you can ask for help (assuming it doesn't violate any rules)

[river walrus]

Aight boss you got it

[reef shell]

Just ask here or any available help channels, someone will help you for sure

[rough flicker]

okay

im at a loss

[safe otter]

Hi, I just started using discord.py and was wondering how I could make a command work only on a specific channel

[river walrus]

Sorry for the ping
But I'm asking for a team to help me with a project (like become a part of the team that's developing it)
And the project does not violate any rules.
Is it ok if I continue asking for it?

[river walrus]

if ctx.channel.id == id

[safe otter]

Oh thanks

[bitter depot]

Recruitment isn't allowed. If you'd like to discuss this further I'd recommend contacting @novel apex as then you can give more specifics so I can be sure I'm understanding correctly

[pliant gulch]

For incoming webhooks does discord allow you to set localhost as endpoint url or will you need to ngrok it

[slate swan]

idk why but i tested it on a normal cmd on there it works but not on this one can you help me with that?

[reef shell]

@commands.is_owner()

use this decorator

[river walrus]

By the looks of it you're using an outdated discord.py

[slate swan]

but the other commands work with that i tested it with this account and a alt account, my alt account couldnt use the command but this one so how is not working with that specific command tho?

[river walrus]

Just update discord.py and try again

You don't need pass_context=True btw

That's automatically handled

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

that fixxed it

[river walrus]

Amazing

[pliant gulch]

Answered my own question, ngrok is needed

[full lily]

ctx.guild.premium_subscribers returns List[Member]

[dapper cobalt]

" - ".join(member for member in ctx.guild.permium_subscribers)

[full lily]

so that's why you're seeing all that garbage in there

[wicked atlas]

I might suggest doing

" - ".join(member.mention for member in ctx.guild.permium_subscribers)

[dapper cobalt]

He said he wants the name and tag not the mention.

[pure totem]

code py client.run("MY TOKEN")

And check if you added the client secret instead of the client token

Ye

It's def that, I can see it in the error

wheres the song coming from

@misty stream

[misty stream]

youtube

[jade jolt]

!ytdl

[misty stream]

but i want it to be working with spotify and youtube

[jade jolt]

read above

[hasty iron]

neither allow streaming/downloading

[jade jolt]

yup

[misty stream]

there are tons of music bots

[hasty iron]

ok so

[misty stream]

how do they do it

[jade jolt]

breaking the TOS yeah

[hasty iron]

by breaking laws

[jade jolt]

some use noncopyright only ^

[misty stream]

huh

okey

what about spotify

do they allow it

[hasty iron]

no

no platform allows it

[misty stream]

damn

so no one in here made a music bot for youtube or spotify ?

[hasty iron]

i did

but we’re not going to help with it

it breaks ToS

[misty stream]

oof

okey

then an other question

[pure totem]

wait does discord.py still exist and is popular? or do people use pycord now

[misty stream]

i have a embed on my wordpress website for twitch
and i want my discord bot to be able to change the channel inside the embed

is this possible

[hasty iron]

edit the message?

[misty stream]

and how cause i tried to find it but wasnt able to find anything

[kindred epoch]

use disnake instead

[misty stream]

yes

so channel : test1

[kindred epoch]

It had a lot more features than pycord

[misty stream]

to channel : test2

[kindred epoch]

By lot I mean a lot

And more are coming

[hasty iron]

classic shit dpy fork

[kindred epoch]

Lmao

and i want to change the channel: with my discord bot

with like !change (channelname here)

[hasty iron]

then you’ll have to edit the file

[misty stream]

how would i do that

[hasty iron]

open file -> read -> regex and find location -> replace

uh thats the first thing that came in my head

[misty stream]

yeah but the file is hosted on a external host

[hasty iron]

the bot doesn’t have access to it?

[misty stream]

not yet

idk how

[hasty iron]

then i have no clue

[misty stream]

rip

cause i need that to work then my bot is done Xd

[pure totem]

so i need to upgrade my pip command and it's not working for some reason

btw just downloaded python correctly and vsc and just copy and pasting the code from replit to vsc

[hasty iron]

then upgrade it

[pure totem]

i did but it says --user is not an option

[inland venture]

whats the command that could make your bot avaiable in all channels?

I did if message.channel.name == 'nice-place':

[pure totem]

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 
Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions.```

[inland venture]

I want my bot to be avaiable on all channels

help plz

[dapper cobalt]

You can use f""" to put all of this inside a f-string and make the channel a variable.

[misty stream]

okey can you connect python with a ftp server and edit files in that ftp ?

[dapper cobalt]

Give it permissions to access all channels.

[inland venture]

I did, but wont let me unless i do a command

[dapper cobalt]

What? Can you show your code?

\n

[pure totem]

very sus for some reason, downloaded youtube_dl and it says error

youtube_dl could not be resolved

and youtube_dl is not accessed

[dapper cobalt]

[covert igloo]

How am i able to make it so when a ban command is used, it only bans if the argument for member is either an id or mention

[slate swan]

!d typing.Optional

[unkempt canyon]

typing.Optional

typing.Optional```
Optional type.

`Optional[X]` is equivalent to `X | None` (or `Union[X, None]`).

Note that this is not the same concept as an optional argument, which is one that has a default. An optional argument with a default does not require the `Optional` qualifier on its type annotation just because it is optional. For example:

```py
def foo(arg: int = 0) -> None:
    ...
```  On the other hand, if an explicit value of `None` is allowed, the use of `Optional` is appropriate, whether the argument is optional or not. For example...

[slate swan]

I think

[inland venture]

nonononononoonnooo

its on my server

not this server

[slate swan]

still API spamming

[covert igloo]

how does it work

[inland venture]

:(

fine ill delete command

[slate swan]

well I gotta look at that

[covert igloo]

idk how to use it

rn i have it as py member: discord.Member

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def command(ctx, arg: typing.Optional[int, discord.Member]):

innit

[covert igloo]

ah is that just making it so it can be an id or the member mention

[slate swan]

yes

if it doesn't work, idk

[covert igloo]

ok let me try it out

[slate swan]

typing.Union @covert igloo

Commands intentionally do strict typing to ensure your code behaves consistently. In this case, your default is an int, so the library will always cast to an int and will raise a UserInputError if it gets something that isn't an int.

It is good practice to explicitly type hint what you need:

async def example_command(ctx, argument: int):
    ...```
Note that without any hinting, the default type for arguments is str. With hinting, you will not receive anything other than the type specified.

On the rewrite branch, it is possible to use a typing.Union to specify fallbacks if conversions fail, at which point you could use isinstance as normal:
```py
async def example_command(ctx, argument: typing.Union[int, float, str]):
    if isinstance(argument, int):
        ...  # do something
    elif isinstance(argument, float):
        ...  # do something else
    else:
        ...  # this is the str branch```

copied from GitHub of course

heyyy

response = requests.get("http://localhost:30120/players.json")
test = response.json()

@client.command()
async def status(ctx):
    await ctx.send(test['endpoint'])

i get this error

list indices must be integers or slices, not str

any help??

test is a list

not a dict

ok so what should i change

?

dunno

can you print test and show me the results?

[slate swan]

sure

list indices must be integers or slices, not str

[lofty heron]

[lofty heron]

```???

[lofty heron]

@client.command()
async def roletest(ctx):
  guild = client.get_guild(879311327720538142)
  role = guild.get_role(879529307813335051)
  if role in member.roles:
    await ctx.send('ofuwehiyg')
  else:
    await ctx.send('nope')

[slate swan]

ok so i was correct

[lofty heron]

kek

@client.command()
async def roletest(ctx):
  guild = client.get_guild(879311327720538142)
  role = guild.get_role(879529307813335051)
  if role in ctx.message.author.roles:
    await ctx.send('you have the role')
  else:
    await ctx.send("you don't have the role")

[slate swan]

can i make a discord bot keep logs of everytime a command is used and the time in a txt file

[rugged tinsel]

hey case_insensitive= True dosent work for me can any1 please help?

[pliant compass]

Is there an offical Discord.py way to add buttons to a bot?

[slate swan]

No

i didn't see you said official

[rugged tinsel]

pls help me

[slate swan]

full code ?

[pliant compass]

Get some free hosting thing online or if you have a really bad old computer then just run the bot on that. I have a couple bots that run on some old 2010 laptop.

[heavy folio]

theres no free hosts which are good

[trim barn]

    vote_registered_role = client.get_guild(880888575175036998).get_role(int(880888727218556949)) # Insert guild id and role id of registration role (if applicable)

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_role'

what

[heavy folio]

@slate swan

@slate swan

[wicked atlas]

Message components were added in 2.0

[heavy folio]

do py ctx.guild.get_role(id)

kinda forgot

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

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

[trim barn]

i put it in a variable class

[pliant compass]

I can't find anything about them on https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/
Am I looking in the wrong place?

[wicked atlas]

That is looking at the latest stable release, which was 1.7.3

2.0 was never officially released, and can only be installed directly from the repository and not pypi

The docs for 2.0 are found here: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/

[wicked atlas]

case_insensitive goes the the bot's definition, not the commands

bot = commands.Bot(case_insensitive=True)
