on_member_join(member)

[slate swan]

can u pass me a invite to ur server ?

[river walrus]

Sure

[slate swan]

it should be something like

x = on_member_join(member)
await x.send('dm')```

not sure tbh

[river walrus]

Wrong
It should be

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    await member.send('DM')```

[slate swan]

can someone help me how do i fix this?

[slate swan]

yeah thats what i meant

[slate swan]

are you self botting ?

whats that?

hello, try this with sqlite3:

UPDATE member SET Pseudo = speedeux WHERE ID = 882348295710736424

and i got this:

sqlite3.OperationalError: no such column: speedeux

[river walrus]

The column doesn't exists

[slate swan]

she exist

    (
    ID             int PRIMARY KEY UNIQUE,
    Pseudo          text,
    Balance         int DEFAULT 1000,
    Earned          int DEFAULT 0,
    Lost            int DEFAULT 0,
    Post            text DEFAULT 'Stagiaire',
    Experience      int DEFAULT 0,
    Salary          int DEFAULT 0,
    Composition     text DEFAULT '',
    ContributePoint int DEFAULT 0,
    Contribution    text DEFAULT '',
    ActyToday       int DEFAULT 0,
    ActyWeek        int DEFAULT 0,
    ActyMonth       int DEFAULT 0,
    Here            int DEFAULT 1
    )```

[river walrus]

Mb

You shouldn't have uppercase names btw

Sometimes it results into that

[lament mesa]

what are you trying to do?

[slate swan]

can someone help me. how do i fix this?

[uncut comet]

hello how can i access my mongodb from a cog? do i need to setup a separate connection or is there a way to use the connection from the main bot file?

[river walrus]

Not relevant to your question. but why don't you use postgres

[lament mesa]

Because sqlite thinks that speedeux is a column.
If you want it to be a string make it 'speedeux' (add single quotes)

[lament mesa]

!bot-var

[unkempt canyon]

Python allows you to set custom attributes to most objects, like your bot! By storing things as attributes of the bot object, you can access them anywhere you access your bot. In the discord.py library, these custom attributes are commonly known as "bot variables" and can be a lifesaver if your bot is divided into many different files. An example on how to use custom attributes on your bot is shown below:

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
# Set an attribute on our bot
bot.test = "I am accessible everywhere!"

@bot.command()
async def get(ctx: commands.Context):
    """A command to get the current value of `test`."""
    # Send what the test attribute is currently set to
    await ctx.send(ctx.bot.test)

@bot.command()
async def setval(ctx: commands.Context, *, new_text: str):
    """A command to set a new value of `test`."""
    # Here we change the attribute to what was specified in new_text
    bot.test = new_text

This all applies to cogs as well! You can set attributes to self as you wish.

Be sure not to overwrite attributes discord.py uses, like cogs or users. Name your attributes carefully!

[slate swan]

I try to update the pseudo column to speedeux for people whose id is 882348295710736424

[lament mesa]

[uncut comet]

not really used sql that much and decided to give mongodb a go

[slate swan]

nobody gonna help me?

[lament mesa]

what do you want speedeux to be? a string?

[lament mesa]

You have passed in an invalid token

[slate swan]

year it a string

[lament mesa]

if you want it to be a string then make it 'speedeux' (add single quotes) or else sqlite will think that its a column

[slate swan]

    print("name edit: ", new_name)
    cursor.execute("""UPDATE member SET Pseudo = {} WHERE ID = {}""".format(new_name, member_id))
    database.commit()```

the entire function

[lament mesa]

dont use .format

use query params

[slate swan]

with "?" ?

[lament mesa]

yeah

cursor.execute("""UPDATE member SET Pseudo = ? WHERE ID = ?""", (new_name, member_id))```

[slate swan]

ok thanks

[uncut comet]

anyone able to help?

[river walrus]

Postgres is bae tbh

I love it

[lament mesa]

what do you mean by "bae"

[slate swan]

Connecting the discord bot to gpt3 https://pythonrepo.com/repo/Cyclcrclicly-shirt-bot

[lament mesa]

yeah its very epic

[river walrus]

baby lol

[lament mesa]

oh

[boreal ravine]

Did u even read the error

Improper means wrong so regenarate your token.

[slate swan]

ok

i want to dm a user when they send a command like .check sfsdfdsfds
how do i do that?

[river walrus]

await ctx.author.send('dsdasd')

[slate swan]

ok

hi all

[frail summit]

hi

[river walrus]

Heya

[slate swan]

how many languages i can use to create discord bot?

like i can use c# to create discord bot

[honest wing]

Any language that has a discord libary lolo

[frail summit]

can anyone figure out which software is this

[honest wing]

Pycharm

[slate swan]

yeah

[frail summit]

ooh thanks a lot

it helped

[slate swan]

@river walrus you know?

[honest wing]

I wouldn't recommend PyCharm ngl

[slate swan]

same

but i will

[honest wing]

Use atom or Visual Studio Code

[slate swan]

at some point

[frail summit]

bro i am using Visual Studio Code

Bro is Visual Studio Code better than pycharm

[honest wing]

Javascript, Java, Python, Rust and some others, most languages have a libary, just check google

[honest wing]

IMO yeah

[frail summit]

ooh

[lament mesa]

yeah

[slate swan]

yes but

[frail summit]

but??

[slate swan]

for only for python development i highly recommend pycharm

[frail summit]

ooh ok

[honest wing]

Nah tbh

[slate swan]

if you are using any other languages and files too then vs code

[slate swan]

still bro

[river walrus]

Python is best for it
But you gotta wait for a proper lib to be released
Since the current big one is discontinued

[slate swan]

then why pycharm created 😄

[uncut comet]

how to use pymongo across a cog?

[honest wing]

Variable.

[honest wing]

It's a IDE, some people like it some don't

[river walrus]

VSCode doesn't have decent Python auto-imports
PyCharm kinda does

[honest wing]

Yeah, but VSCode is nicer and easier IMO

[uncut comet]

thanks :)

[lament mesa]

pycharm is very good for python

[slate swan]

yes but pycharm provide lots of feautes

[honest wing]

It's your personal choice.

[river walrus]

VSC has better themes, but it's only an editor so

[lament mesa]

the linter is very helpful and accurate

[slate swan]

pycharm is more confortable for python dev

[honest wing]

Yeah.

[honest wing]

Not everyone agrees lol

[slate swan]

see

i use vs code for python-dev because i use azure

otherwise i'll would be using pycharm

for highly level creating application

work matter , what are you doing

When I click the NextButton, it prints 2 and then 1, but when I click PrevButton, it prints 1 and then errors out... It is not setting the page as 2, thus returning a KeyError that the key 0 isn't in the dict... How to fix it?

[tulip smelt]

@river walrus if you want i cant screen share and explain what i try and what i do better

[spring flax]

Hunter

[maiden fable]

Hi

[spring flax]

You should know that

Error is helpful

[maiden fable]

Just a KeyError that 0 isn't there in the dict

[river walrus]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

[maiden fable]

because the page var isn't set to 2 on press idk why

[tidal hawk]

Can somebody suggest me, how to create a command, which can user only use once a day.

[maiden fable]

There, edited the message

!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop

Wait, nvm

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

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

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

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

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[slate swan]

cooldown

[tidal hawk]

thanks :*

[slate swan]

doesn't it take a check?

[maiden fable]

Yea by mistake read it as How to make something run once everyday

[maiden fable]

???

[tidal hawk]

np

[maiden fable]

BTW @spring flax any idea?

[spring flax]

yes one second looking at the code

[maiden fable]

Well my understanding is that it isn't updating the original class's page var

Cool

[patent perch]

Can I get help here?

[maiden fable]

Yea

[patent perch]

Cool

[spring flax]

also, may I ask why you aren't using dpy's buttons?

[reef shell]

sure, lol

[spring flax]

that's what you want right

[maiden fable]

Yea....?

I mean, I am using disnake

[reef shell]

async def interaction_check(self, intr):
    return #idk how to do this.. maybe ctx.author == intr.author?```
how to check if the user interacting is the author ?

[maiden fable]

u need another arg in the init

from a command

[reef shell]

self.ctx?

[maiden fable]

and then check self.inter.author == inter.author

[reef shell]

oh

alr

[patent perch]

I want to be able to have a kind of money system for each server and I want verified purchases stored in a json file. Would anyone know how I can get the value of a certain object by serverID?

{
    "ServerID": {"Purchase1": 1, "Purchase2": 0, "Purchase3": 1}
}```
Currently, I've unsuccessfully tried using this:
```python
def check_purchase(client, message, purchase):
    try:
        with open('json/Purchases.json', 'r') as f:
            purchases = json.load(f)
            return purchases[str(message.guild.id)]
        
    except:
        return '0'```

Sorry for ping, I meant to turn that off.

[slate swan]

that's no dpy relation

[reef shell]

database is what you need for better experience instead of using json

[maiden fable]

Hey @slate swan mind looking at the code?

[reef shell]

and i'm not so familiar with that

[slate swan]

yours?

[patent perch]

I'm hosting through replit, and whenever I try importing database, it crashes.

[slate swan]

I can

[reef shell]

lmao see the code

[tulip smelt]

@river walrus sry bro i am so dumb can you try to explain me what i do wrong is my first time codeing in python

[maiden fable]

mhm

[slate swan]

what's up with it

[maiden fable]

thanks

[reef shell]

replit is bad,

[slate swan]

oh shit that's advanced af

[river walrus]

Youtube_dl is no longer legal
Since it's against yt TOS

[patent perch]

I don't have any other way to host 24/7.

[reef shell]

related to discord bots atleast

[slate swan]

you don't want me to toaster tag you

Getting an error while running this code:

async def embed_func(ctx):
    embedVar = discord.Embed(title="Snake Eyes", color=0x2C5ED1)
    embedVar.add_field(name="** **", value=":emoji_1: :emoji_1:", inline=False)
    embed = await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)
    await asyncio.sleep(1)

    await bot.delete_message(embed)

embed_func()

The error says something like "embed_func missing one positional argument named ctx")

[maiden fable]

lol

[slate swan]

Can anyone help?

[reef shell]

so what your try block returning is a dict. so you can then access the dict.'s values using keys

[tulip smelt]

@river walrus oh i not knowing that this is how the man from the tutorial saw how to make a music bot

[slate swan]

read the error

it's legit telling u what u did wrong

[river walrus]

Never watch yt for discord bots

[patent perch]

Thanks, I'll do my own research on that now.

[river walrus]

They suck

[slate swan]

I know, but what do I pass on to the function? None?

why does he teach breaking YT ToS on YouTube

what the fuck

[tulip smelt]

@river walrus thx for tips and have a nice day

[river walrus]

Cooldowns

[slate swan]

you bass a Context instance

[river walrus]

same

[slate swan]

So just ctx?

yes

if it's inside a command

Alright, thanks!

[river walrus]

Also @commands.command() before the function definition

[slate swan]

I can't even look at hunter's code without getting blind

I'm too weak for that

[maiden fable]

Yo @spring flax got anything in mind? I have been brainstorming this since like 30 min

[spring flax]

full tb?

[maiden fable]

I know it is messy, sorry

[slate swan]

nah, it probably ain't

[maiden fable]

    self.paginator.paginator_embed.description = "\n".join(f"{key}: {value}" for key, value in self.paginator.paginator_dict[self.paginator.page])
KeyError: 0

[slate swan]

I'm too meh

[slate swan]

What does that do?

[maiden fable]

And this happens in the PrevButton class

[slate swan]

Oh it isn't a command, just a function @river walrus

no documentation for 2.0

I'm dying

[maiden fable]

Lol

[slate swan]

how would I even learn it like that NotLikeThis

[stone palm]

h-h-hi h-h-hunter

[spring flax]

well the keyerror is when you try to access a key that is not in a dict

[maiden fable]

Yea I know

and the reason is cz the page variable isn't getting set to 2 when the NextButton is clicked

I just don't know how to fix it

[spring flax]

this is for prevbutton?

[maiden fable]

The error? Yea

[spring flax]

what is self.paginator_page?

the value of it

[maiden fable]

u mean self.paginator.page?

[spring flax]

yeah

[maiden fable]

When I click the NextButton then

1
2

after that, when I click the PrevButton

1
KeyError 0

So that tells me the value isn't updated

[spring flax]

what's self.paginator.page though

[maiden fable]

The current page number

[river walrus]

Oh mb

[spring flax]

did you just do like self.paginator.page = 1?

[maiden fable]

in the init of the paginator class, yes... cz that is the key of the first value in the dict

[spring flax]

uhh sorry can't see why it's happening

[maiden fable]

:c

I was thinking this was gonna be easy

Breh I will have to use globals

I don't want to use them :c

[craggy cloak]

😕

[maiden fable]

pip install discord.py[voice]

[craggy cloak]

Thx

[maiden fable]

Well I think I have found a way, time to try it

[lofty mulch]

TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'bot'

any hints on this?

[slate swan]

you didn't pass bot when you instantiated the class

[lofty mulch]

Thing is, it's not even inside a class

[slate swan]

then where

[lofty mulch]

Wait

async def main():
    Bot = CogManager()
    await Bot.start(Token)

I still have to pass bot?

[slate swan]

show where u defined CogManager

[lofty mulch]

In the same file as this one

[river walrus]

try using lowercase names btw

[slate swan]

i only need to see the __init__ of it

[lofty mulch]

class CogManager(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
    
    @watch(path='Cogs')
    async def on_ready(self):
        print ('Bot is ready.')

    async def on_message(self, message):
        if message.author.bot:
            return

        await self.process.command(message)


# Starting 

async def main(bot):
    Bot = CogManager()
    await Bot.start(Token)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    asyncio.run(main())```

[lofty mulch]

I despise not capitalizing names

It's more of a habit

[slate swan]

tf

[lofty mulch]

Yep, i'm trying out cogwatch

[slate swan]

u don't even have a start method in your class

[lofty mulch]

No idea of what I'm doing

[slate swan]

1st, you're subclassing Cog and assigning CogManager to a Bot variable, which makes no sense

2nd, since it's not a subclass of Bot, you don't have the .start method

3rd, why are you using asyncio.run to run your bot when that's done automatically by the lib

4th, your __init__ takes bot as the param, so when you do CogManager() you need to pass bot

[silk mauve]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: RuntimeError: PyNaCl library needed in order to use voice

[slate swan]

install pynacl

pip install PyNaCl

[silk mauve]

Alr

[lofty mulch]

1. What's the viable option, then?

2. Same question as above

3. No idea, I took that from Github and it requested asyncio for some reason

4. I see, I'll fix that after I'm done reading something about cogwatch

[slate swan]

1&2. instead of subclassing Cog subclass Bot, in other words commands.Cog => commands.Bot, you will need to do a super().__init__() and in there you need to pass the same params as you'd pass when creating a normal bot instance

3. don't blindly copy code you do not understand not even a little bit

4. why use cogwatch in the first place

[silk mauve]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: RuntimeError: PyNaCl library needed in order to use voice

Still.

[slate swan]

bruh

did u install it

[lofty mulch]

I'm literally copying it because I'm trying to understand what even is it

[silk mauve]

ye

[lofty mulch]

And why not?

[slate swan]

first understand, then copy

[lofty mulch]

Can't exactly understand something without trying it out

[slate swan]

because you end up with a completely shit code that makes no sense like it just happened 🤷‍♂️

[lofty mulch]

That's pretty much how I learn things, trying out

[slate swan]

then it should work

[silk mauve]

Doesnt

[slate swan]

hmm understandable

[slate swan]

did u do it in the terminal

[steel oasis]

how to change status of discord bot like change it to don't disturb

[silk mauve]

cmd

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.change_presence

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

```py
game = discord.Game("with the API")
await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.idle, activity=game)
```   Changed in version 2.0: Removed the `afk` keyword-only parameter.

[steel oasis]

ty

[slate swan]

are you sure you're using the right python path

[lofty mulch]

It's not like it's something permanent, I'm just trying to learn how to properly use it to eventually add it to my code

[silk mauve]

Wait

I will restart

[lofty mulch]

Pretty much testing

[slate swan]

alr

[silk mauve]

Worked, ty

[slate swan]

yw

[slate swan]

but please at least have some basic knowledge before doing so, the code you just sent is completely broken and you should've noticed at least that

[lofty mulch]

Well, fair enough I guess

Well, back to the forums I go

[slate swan]

lmao

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steel oasis]

my code isn't even running and my bot works

wtf

[slate swan]

you probably have a process of it running

[steel oasis]

i use replit

[lofty mulch]

Bot's literally too angry to die

[hasty iron]

then dont use replit

[silk mauve]

How does it work with listening

[steel oasis]

LMAO

[silk mauve]

Bc it shows an error

[steel oasis]

Finally it died

[lofty mulch]

Turns out it wasn't too angry to die

[steel oasis]

any good hosting service 24/7 that doesn't require me to have a webpage open?

[slate swan]

activity = discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.listening, name="whatever")
await bot.change_presence(status=discord.Status.dnd, activity=activity

[silk mauve]

ty

[slate swan]

a vps

[steel oasis]

a wut?

[slate swan]

vps = virtual private server

[steel oasis]

how to make that?

lemme google

[steel oasis]

jk

[slate swan]

those are some good vps

[steel oasis]

yes but how to use them?

[slate swan]

idk never used one

[steel oasis]

literally none of the pages work

404 erro or smthn

[slate swan]

bro read the error it's basic error

[steel oasis]

where are you puttin it in ur code?

[silk mauve]

I see

[steel oasis]

send code

[hasty iron]

await needs to be inside an async function

[steel oasis]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

[hasty iron]

it’s not really basic since it’s related to async programming

[slate swan]

hmm understandable

how do i put continue it keeps saying 'continue is not properly in loop'

 if "jpg" not in url or "png" not in url:
        continue

[maiden fable]

Yo @spring flax (sorry for the ping), but the paginator is now working perfectly... I was just overcomplicating things for no fking reason

[steel oasis]

import discord

import os

client = discord.Client()

token = "HALL NO, YOU DON'T GET MA TOKEN"

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Game('With Team Lunar'))
    
    await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.dnd), await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Game('With Team Lunar'))
    
    print('Connected to bot: {}'.format(client.user.name))
    
    print('Bot ID: {}'.format(client.user.id))


client.run(token, bot=True)

doesn't show don't disturb only playing with team lunar

[hasty iron]

i think you want pass here

continue only works in for and while loops

[slate swan]

yeah i had pass before i was just trying to see if it works

[slate swan]

thx

[upbeat blaze]

You are modifying presence 3 times
Use the function one time
And add the other kwarg
status

[steel oasis]

Could you explain more?

[upbeat blaze]

activity=discord.Game("with team lunar"), status=discord.Status.dnd
Two kwargs

[dapper cobalt]

You are changing your presence 3 different times.

Each one of the 3 is different than the others.

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.change_presence

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

```py
game = discord.Game("with the API")
await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.idle, activity=game)
```   Changed in version 2.0: Removed the `afk` keyword-only parameter.

[steel oasis]

hmm

so like this

@client.event
async def on_ready():
   await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Game("with team lunar"), status=discord.Status.dnd)
    
    print('Connected to bot: {}'.format(client.user.name))
    
    print('Bot ID: {}'.format(client.user.id))

@dapper cobalt

[dapper cobalt]

Correct.

[steel oasis]

gives an error

[dapper cobalt]

What is it?

!d discord.Game

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Game

class discord.Game(name, **extra)```
A slimmed down version of [`Activity`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Activity "discord.Activity") that represents a Discord game.

This is typically displayed via **Playing** on the official Discord client.

x == y Checks if two games are equal.

x != y Checks if two games are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the game’s hash.

str(x) Returns the game’s name.

[steel oasis]

  File "main.py", line 13
    print('Connected to bot: {}'.format(client.user.name))
    ^
IndentationError: unexpected indent

[dapper cobalt]

Indentation error.

[steel oasis]

I don't know what indetation means sorry I am new to coding

and english is not my first langauage

@dapper cobalt

[dapper cobalt]

You should learn basics of Python before making a Discord bot.

[steel oasis]

I am doing so

[slate swan]

Indentation is the tabs and spaces before words

Like if you had an if statement, the indentation would be like this most likely:

If x == y
Print("rawr")

[hasty iron]

if you dont know what indents are, learn more python

!resources

[slate swan]

Could be a translation issue, said his first language isn't English

[hasty iron]

when you code 90% of the time it’s going to be english

[gritty flame]

or twice

[pliant gulch]

4 spaces and one tab is not the same

Its just that your IDE turns tabs into spaces, usually 4

[lofty mulch]

@slate swan Incredible

[slate swan]

?

[lofty mulch]

I've been googling for like

20 mins

and I couldn't find anything significant on cogwatch

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lofty mulch]

Shit's scarce

Back to bot.reload_extension we go

[slate swan]

😂

[tidal hawk]

can i see how many seconds are left for cooldown end?

with CommandsOnCooldown error

[hasty iron]

!d discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown.retry_after

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown.retry\_after

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

[tidal hawk]

hm

thanks

[slate swan]

that's just-
sheeesh

and in on_ready aswell

[reef shell]

anyone knows how to disable a button when the button was created using ui.button deco.?

I mean how do i get that button object?

[pliant gulch]

The callback, which is the function you decorate with that decorator has access to the button param which should be the first one

[hasty iron]

the button object gets passed in as a parameter

[pliant gulch]

This will be the corresponding button

[quiet coral]

hello,what are some of the best resources to learn to code discord bots?

[reef shell]

so how do i disable this?

button.disabled = True?

I tried this but doesn't work

[pliant gulch]

Hmm should've worked, maybe you are doing something wrong not sure

[unkempt canyon]

Sorry, an unexpected error occurred. Please let us know!

ServerDisconnectedError: Server disconnected

[final iron]

Uh oh

[flat solstice]

I'd need to use await self.bot.fetch_channel right? laws = await fetch_channel(287435156720058370)

[river walrus]

Hi, I'm re-creating (and not forking) discord.py (called Disthon) using the code form discord.py, discord.js and Sapphire framework.
I need programming experts to lend me a hand with the project. If anyone's interested in contributing, please reply to this message

[river walrus]

No, self.bot.get_channel

[crystal cliff]

friends, patience and practice 👍

[river walrus]

Summed it up pretty well

[crystal cliff]

whats it do?

[crystal cliff]

thank you 🙂

[river walrus]

Everything that dpy has + slash commands + buttons + etc

Not yet implemented

But we will

For sure

[crystal cliff]

buttons?

[river walrus]

Yeah dank member buttons for example

Lemme try to find a good example

[crystal cliff]

dm me, when you start it, im interested, in what it does 🤔

[river walrus]

We already started

[crystal cliff]

g2g 👋

[river walrus]

Aight

[pliant gulch]

Just looked at the client.py for your lib, I think its very messy imo and could use a cleanup

[woeful fable]

would anyone take a look at my code and try to figure out whats wrong?

[hasty iron]

is there a github

[pliant gulch]

For an example, heres my early implementation for my own lib that I started a while back ```py
from future import annotations

import typing
import inspect

import asyncio

from .http import HTTPClient
from .ws import WebSocketClient

all = ("Client",)

class Client:
def init(
self, token: str, loop: typing.Optional[asyncio.AbstractEventLoop] = None
):
self.loop: asyncio.AbstractEventLoop = loop or asyncio.get_event_loop()
self.http: HTTPClient = HTTPClient(token, self.loop)
self.ws: WebSocketClient = WebSocketClient(self)

    self.events: typing.Dict[str, typing.List[typing.Callable]] = {}


def add_listener(self, func: typing.Callable, event_name: typing.Optional[str]):
    name = event_name or func.__name__
    if not inspect.iscoroutinefunction(func):
        raise TypeError("Callback must be a coroutine")


    if name in self.events:
        self.events[name].append(func)
    self.events[name] = [func]


def on(
    self, event_name: typing.Optional[str] = None
) -> typing.Callable[..., typing.Callable]:
    def inner(func: typing.Callable) -> typing.Callable:
        self.add_listener(func, event_name)
        return func


    return inner


async def connect(self) -> None:
    await self.ws.start()


async def login(self, token: str) -> None:
    await self.http.login(token)


async def start(self) -> None:
    await asyncio.gather(self.login(self.http.token), self.connect())

Everything is neat and organized, I think you should clean your's up as it will make it easier to read

[quiet coral]

none of my friends know python they all use JS 😆

[pliant gulch]

Just google it, that's what I did

[hasty iron]

oh

[pliant gulch]

https://github.com/AA1999/Disthon/blob/4d84e56a48ca5d36e4772f073ed298b006240ec8/discord/client.py#L1-L8 imports def need cleaning

[unkempt canyon]

discord/client.py lines 1 to 8

from logging import Handler
import handler
import websocket
import aiohttp
import intents as intent
from os import getenv
import typing
import asyncio```

[pliant gulch]

And is there a reason why you do getenv? Library shouldn't be handling that, rather the user does

Seems out of scope

[wispy spade]

ah yeah just looked it up it's messy

*although the client i made for the api is probably messier

[pliant gulch]

I'm probably judging to much, I just like writing really clean code so

[hasty iron]

and why is loop a private attribute

if you really dont want people to change it, make it a read-only property

[pliant gulch]

The start method here though is pretty big brain on me

[hasty iron]

wouldnt this error import websocket i think it should be from . import websocket

[wispy spade]

https://github.com/AA1999/Disthon/blob/master/discord/client.py#L70-L76
Also why is this awaited? Shouldn't the coro be run separately as a task? Wouldn't this completely lock when multiple events are run at the same time?

[unkempt canyon]

discord/client.py lines 70 to 76

async def handle_event(self, msg):
    event = msg['t']
    try:
        for coro in self.events[event]:
            await coro(msg)
    except KeyError:
        return```

[pliant gulch]

whats dispatch code doing in client?

Shouldn't that be placed in websockets

[wispy spade]

I think that should work, although I'd try going for the relative import as you run a lower risk of dependency hijacking.

[river walrus]

Thanks for the help

[river walrus]

I didn't design the client.py tbh
One of the collaborators did

[pliant gulch]

https://github.com/AA1999/Disthon/blob/4d84e56a48ca5d36e4772f073ed298b006240ec8/discord/websocket.py#L43-L48 here too

[unkempt canyon]

discord/websocket.py lines 43 to 48

def keepAlive(self) -> None:
    while True:
        time.sleep(self.hb_int)
        asyncio.run(self.heartbeat())

def on_websocket_message(self, msg: dict) -> dict:```

[pliant gulch]

camel case then snake case?

And why are you using threading? If you did what I did in my example for websockets that stays alive

No need for threading

[river walrus]

You'd be amazing as a critic for the codes we write, would you join the contributors?

[hasty iron]

if we ignore most stuff there then it would be a decent lib

also why, just why? asyncio.run and time.sleep

[wispy spade]

That handle_event is probably called from the websocket when a Dispatch event is received.

[pliant gulch]

Why put that in client then?

Just leave the method in websockets lol

seems out of place and the name doesn't make sense

[pliant gulch]

I'm not sure, maybe if the repo/lib as a whole becomes more stable/clean

[river walrus]

Aight gotcha

[pliant gulch]

I'm just picky when it comes to clean code/unclean

[hasty iron]

rn it definitely needs a whole rewrite

[wispy spade]

I also do the same for my package, the client gets fed to the websocket, which calls the event handler if a dispatch occurs (decompressing the data first and cleaning it up before giving it to the handler)

[pliant gulch]

Inspiration from discord.py is always fine as well, as visible but sometimes its better to make your own impl

[river walrus]

I'll take a look at the code, try to clean it up

[pliant gulch]

    async def dispatch(self, event: str, data: typing.Dict) -> None:
        logger.info(f"DISPATCHED EVENT: {event}")


        if event == "READY":
            self.session_id = data["session_id"]


        name = event.lower()
        if name in self.client.events:
            for callback in self.client.events[name]:
                data = await self.parse_event_data(name, data)


                await callback(data)
``` this is what I do

Just left it in websockets, kept the client void of any websocket stuff

[river walrus]

Do you know anyone who's got experience with discord API?

[hasty iron]

it doesn’t really matter who knows the API but what matters is how you implement it

[quiet coral]

beginner question how do I make my bot go offline with discord.py?

[wispy spade]

In my case, this is mainly done for convenience sake, since you register events with Client, the function can easily call them, although you could likely do the same if you placed that event handler in the websocket.

[hasty iron]

anybody can wrap the API easily it’s not that hard

but if they do it properly or not is a whole other matter

[wicked atlas]

@river walrus Should fix your user agent
https://github.com/AA1999/Disthon/blob/4d84e56a48ca5d36e4772f073ed298b006240ec8/discord/handler.py#L10

[unkempt canyon]

discord/handler.py line 10

self.user_agent: str = "Disthon test library V0.0.1b. User: sebkuip#3632"```

[wicked atlas]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#user-agent

[pliant gulch]

except for voice stuff tbh, that takes a special type of person

[hasty iron]

yeah

[wispy spade]

weird user agent....

[hasty iron]

lol user agent, i don’t even use one

[pliant gulch]

same

[wicked atlas]

Honestly it is a bit weird they say "must provide a valid User Agent" if they don't even check it or dish out punishment for not using it

[wispy spade]

yeah i just used defaults and not much

[wicked atlas]

Well, if you're going to have a user agent, should at least be a good one

[river walrus]

That's a placeholder, I am Implementing User

[flat solstice]

Is there any way to get member/user info from a DM failure HTTP exception? i.e the name of the user who caused the exception

[wicked atlas]

Implementing User?

[wispy spade]

i think they're just referring to the user agent you're using when requesting data from the http api

[slate swan]

.invisible

to make it appear offline

!d discord.Status.invisible

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Status.invisible

The member is “invisible”. In reality, this is only used in sending a presence a la Client.change_presence(). When you receive a user’s presence this will be offline instead.

[river walrus]

I call it APIUser
We're implementing that
User is a bit different

[hasty iron]

how different is it

[quiet coral]

thank's a lot

[slate swan]

no

np*

[flat solstice]

anyone know much about the HTTP exceptions?

[reef shell]

ctx.author gives you that ig

[flat solstice]

i don't think ctx.author would work in a HTTP forbidden 403 (error 5007), would it?

[night crater]

I believe it could because it'll reject you if you dont share a mutual server with that user or you're blocked

nope, discord doesnt give this at all

[reef shell]

Well, if it is raised when invoking a command then yes

[flat solstice]

hmm, i'll experiment I guess

[flat solstice]

it's raised during a member join event

[night crater]

also if the member is a bot

you'll get Forbidden iirc

[reef shell]

@discord.ui.button(label="Page 1", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def page_one(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        

        await interaction.message.edit(embed=self.page1)
        button.disabled = True
        ```
the button is not getiing disabled , also I'm getting no error message in terminal

any solutions?

[night crater]

mmm my first guess is you probably need to do it before editing

otherwise I dont see where Discord is going to be told to update otherwise

[reef shell]

also tried that

[night crater]

I have never used discord.py v2 though

[reef shell]

oh

[slate swan]

a = (response.json()['phone'])
            payload = {
                "phone": a, 
                "Content-Type": "application/json",
            }

            headers2 = {
                "Authorization": r.json()["token"],
                "user-agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0;                 Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like                  Gecko) Chrome/93.0.4577.82 Safari/537.36"
            }

            r2 = requests.post('https://discord.com/api/v9/users/@me/phone', json=payload, headers=headers2)
            print(r2.text)

heres my issue, im pretty much trying to send a request to verify my discord account through phone number

and for some reaosn when i generate the phone number it comes like [phone] with the country code at the beginning of it, then when i send that with the request, it says invalid phone number, i tried removing the +7 but it said invalid because the box where you select the country needs to be +7, and its default is +1, i dont know if i could change the language of the account, or something. idk if this is gonna make sense

btw im not using this for malcious purposes, just to let you know, im legit testing networking since im trying to become better at python and this thing wont work

please read all

[night crater]

that'll get you banned from Discord for doing that

because that's essentially self boting / automating the API

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[final iron]

Is there a built in function in discord.py to create an invite for your bot or would I have to do it another way?

[night crater]

i mean you can use the developer portal

[final iron]

Yeah but I was thinking of making a command

[night crater]

https://discord.com/developers/applications/<bot id>/oauth2

[final iron]

Oh

[night crater]

thats the link to the webpage btw

[final iron]

ty

[night crater]

not the link to invite it

[final iron]

I honestly didn't think of that

Yeah ik

[slate swan]

how can i make a loop command for music

[final iron]

I'm guessing you're making a command to play music from youtube?

[slate swan]

why

[final 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.

[slate swan]

and what could happen to me?

[slate solar]

i need help in this
await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name=f"{len(member.guilds)} members"))
i want it to be like it

[slate swan]

i have that

just wait a sec

[slate solar]

can you give me plz?

[valid niche]

well you have watching already

[slate swan]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
print('Bot online')

servers = len(client.guilds)
members = 0
for guild in client.guilds:
    members += guild.member_count - 1

await client.change_presence(activity = discord.Activity(
    type = discord.ActivityType.watching,
    name = f'{members}'
))

Should work

[valid niche]

so you just set the rest of the text how you like it

[slate solar]

i know

i want the member count

[slate swan]

oh

add

[final iron]

Its illegal im pretty sure

[slate swan]

{servers} Server {members}

[valid niche]

youtube sues you and you'll be out a LOT of money

[slate swan]

oh

[valid niche]

think a few thousand to a few tens of thousands of dollars

[full lily]

well.. unlikely

[slate solar]

can you send me that in the code?

[valid niche]

well client.users is all users the client can see

[wicked atlas]

Not Ilegal, just against Youtube TOS

[valid niche]

copyright law

[wicked atlas]

Well, yeah, if you're downloading copyrighted content

[valid niche]

which most are

or allow the users to look for copyrighted material

[full lily]

it is illegal

tos is legally binding

[wicked atlas]

Yeah, guess if you put it that way

[uncut comet]

hey how can i call a subroutine through a cog?

[full lily]

can you give an example

[uncut comet]

on the main python code be able to call and run a subroutine thats in a different python file

[flat solstice]

Is this the correct way to handle the errors of events inside of a cog? I have a on_member_join event which can error when the bot tries to dm a member with closed DMs and I want the bot to send a msg to a channel when/if such a error occurs but I'm evidently not doing it right as it's not sending my msg but i don't know where I'm going wrong.py async def on_error(self, ctx, error): if isinstance(error, discord.HTTPException): if error.code == 50007: fail = await self.bot.fetch_channel(816480968830353458) # Your ID: self.bot.config.code_of_laws await fail.send(embed = error_embed(colour = self.bot.error_colour, description = f"I was unable to DM {ctx.author}, It appears this user has their DMs closed. Get them to check their *Allow direct messages from server mebers* setting under **Privacy and Safety**. I advise reaching out to this user yourself."))

[full lily]

do you have the event decorator above the func there?

[flat solstice]

nope

[full lily]

well there's your problem

[flat solstice]

that would be? never really touched error handlers b4

[night crater]

Realistically you would be looking in the hundreds of thousands of dollars or more for a big music bot like the ones they've been taking down recently

[full lily]

on_error is an event, so you wanna put @bot.event above that func there

[valid niche]

due to the self it leads me to believe it's in a cog

so it's cog.listener

[full lily]

in that case

[flat solstice]

ah okay, that makes sense thanks

[full lily]

^^

[night crater]

A cog is just a class, if you have access to the cog instance you can call the subroutine like any other instance method e.g.

class Foo(Cog):
  def my_method(self):
    print("hi")

foo = Foo()
foo.my_method()```

[uncut comet]

ok thanks

[night crater]

Oh the joys of slash commands

[uncut comet]

but what if the cog is in a different python file?

[flat solstice]

okay so I have thispy @commands.Cog.listener() async def on_error(self, ctx, error): if isinstance(error, discord.HTTPException): if error.code == 50007: fail = await self.bot.fetch_channel(816480968830353458) # Your ID: self.bot.config.code_of_laws await fail.send(embed = error_embed(colour = self.bot.error_colour, description = f"I was unable to DM {ctx.author}, It appears this user has their DMs closed. Get them to check their *Allow direct messages from server mebers* setting under **Privacy and Safety**. I advise reaching out to this user yourself."))which to my understanding should work, except it's not sending the msg and I think it's getting stuck on the discord.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50007): Cannot send messages to this user which is the evnt it's supposed to be responding to

[night crater]

You can use bot.get_cog to get the class instance

[night crater]

you should really be checking if it's discord.Forbidden instead of checking if it's an exception then checking the code

also make sure that the error hasn't been propagated up and has an original attribute which contains the original error.
This tends to be why you see alot of error handler code having error = getattr(error, 'original' error)

[inland venture]

whats a good combination of thunerz and python
im trynna name my bot

[uncut comet]

sorry this is my first time using cogs but im getting this error test=bot.get_cog.meanie() AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'meanie' what am i doing wrong?

[night crater]

get_cog is a function that takes the cog name

which returns either the instance or None (if the cog doesnt exist)

for reference https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=get_cog#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_cog

[night crater]

If you want my advise dont name your bot your own name or todo with the language used really

not that it matters much

[flat solstice]

okay well I changed it to thispy @commands.Cog.listener() async def on_error(self, ctx, error): #error = getattr(error, 'original' error) if isinstance(error, discord.Forbidden): if error.code == 50007: fail = await self.bot.fetch_channel(816480968830353458) # Your ID: self.bot.config.code_of_laws await fail.send(embed = error_embed(colour = self.bot.error_colour, description = f"I was unable to DM {ctx.author}, It appears this user has their DMs closed. Get them to check their *Allow direct messages from server mebers* setting under **Privacy and Safety**. I advise reaching out to this user yourself."))Reason I'm checking the code is because as far as I am aware only DM failures cause 5007 and I want to only get those, if other stuff happens to be in it then fine but I want to minimise that. I tried that error = getattr(error, 'original' error) bit i obviously wsn't using to right bc it just gave me syntax errors

[night crater]

you missed a comma off the end of 'original'

sorry that was my bad 😅

also make sure another listener isn't consuming and silencing the error already

[flat solstice]

well i do have a more general _on_command_error, would that be affecting it?

and if so then I just check the error code in that handler and pass it right?

[night crater]

you can do that yes

but yes error handlers can and will affect each other if you dont re-raise / consume them

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

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

[valid niche]

i mean i just don't get why discord is forcing slash commands

it just makes less possible and they are tedious to work with

[night crater]

I mean you need a decent framework for them to suck less

but they can be pretty neeto at times

[valid niche]

the only upside i really see to it is that it makes it easier for users to correctly input everything

outside of that i don't see a single benefit

[flat solstice]

okay so i think the other handler is still consuming it unfortunately so i'm gonna call it a day bc it's getting late and come back tomorrow to troubleshoot.

[valid niche]

just downsides

[night crater]

well what is it saying?

[night crater]

Nice for UI, Sucks to debug though on the HTTP side

okay well I would recommend not having a bare except

but for the purpose of debugging and time

add this import statement

from traceback import print_exc

and in the except block as the first line add

print_exc()```

and see what it prints in the terminal

okay so the api is rejecting you because your embed is invalid

which means the api is returning None for location (or maybe country_name I cant remember if discord accounts for indexing at 0)

[valid niche]

your 7th field has a value that is missing

[night crater]

well the value is being passed, it's just None or empty

that discord doesnt accept

probably the best fix is using the or statement to see if it's a falsey value (None, False, Empty string etc...) and swapping it with some default e.g. "None"

!e ```py

foo = None
print(foo or "Hello")

foo = "Hello, World"
print(foo or "Hello")

[unkempt canyon]

@night crater :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | Hello
002 | Hello, World

[visual island]

pass something to the embed field's value

[slate swan]

im trying to do a download bar for my discord bot when it logs in theirs a download bar but nothin shows up

def start():
     tasks = 10
     x = 0
     while(x<tasks):
        time.sleep(1)
        bar["value"]+=10
        x+=1
        percent.set(str(int((x/tasks)*100))+"%")
        text.set(str(x)+"/"+str(tasks)+"tasks completed")
        window.update_idletasks()
        window.mainloop()
        window = Tk()
        percent = StringVar()
        bar = Progressbar(window,orient=HORIZONTAL,length=300)
        bar.pack(pady=10)
        percentLabel = Label(window,textvariable=percent).pack()
        text = StringVar()
        button = Button(window,text="download",command=start).pack()

[valid niche]

i have my doubts one can use TkInter with a discord bot

seeing as it's completely blocking and such

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

should i do it on_ready?

[valid niche]

wut?

[slate swan]

should i do

def on_ready():
     tasks = 10
     x = 0
     while(x<tasks):
        time.sleep(1)
        bar["value"]+=10
        x+=1
        percent.set(str(int((x/tasks)*100))+"%")
        text.set(str(x)+"/"+str(tasks)+"tasks completed")
        window.update_idletasks()
        window.mainloop()
        window = Tk()
        percent = StringVar()
        bar = Progressbar(window,orient=HORIZONTAL,length=300)
        bar.pack(pady=10)
        percentLabel = Label(window,textvariable=percent).pack()
        text = StringVar()
        button = Button(window,text="download",command=start).pack()

[valid niche]

sorry but what

[slate swan]

i dont know anymore

[night crater]

I dont think thats a Discord thing

[valid niche]

i just told you that TkInter probably isn't compatible with discord.py at all

[slate swan]

k

[valid niche]

they want to do a download bar when the bot starts for...reasons

using TkInter

but i don't think that works like that

[night crater]

There isn't really any 'progress' other than shards starting

[slate swan]

[valid niche]

that too

[night crater]

If you really really want a UI like that then use Kivy with it's asyncio backend

[valid niche]

it's just connect, heartbeat, identify and done

for each shard

[night crater]

but in reality it would be better to have a API where they relay it to a web server that then renders it as HTML for you

[valid niche]

that would be something that would actually be possible yes, a separate application that communicates

[night crater]

depends what you want to do with them

If your bot doesnt absolutely need the gateway / websocket events then you can use a HTTP server approach

But there is quite a bit of boiler plate code and not many libs around really

I do maintain my own framework for slash commands designed entirely around the HTTP server side of stuff for minimal boiler plate though: https://github.com/ChillFish8/roid

[honest wing]

OSError: Multiple exceptions: [Errno 111] Connect call failed ('::1', 5432, 0, 0), [Errno 111] Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 5432)

Getting this error from switching to Windows to Arch Linux, can't find a proper answer anywhere. Using asyncpg with postgres.

async def create_db_pool():
    bot.db = await asyncpg.create_pool(database = "prefix", user = "user", password = "pwd")
    print("Connected to database.")```

Thanks!

[night crater]

Apparently asyncpg cant connect to the postgres server

are you sure it's running / exposed correctly? (the db)

[honest wing]

Yes it's running

[valid niche]

also postgres servers need to be set to allow outside connections if you're connection from another computer

[honest wing]

How could I do that?

[valid niche]

in the postgresql.conf file

at the bottom there are the connection settings

for instance

# IPv4 local connections:
host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          md5
host    all         all         10.1.2.28/32          md5

the top one being localhost and the bottom one being a random computer

• for all IPs if you want anyone to connect from anywhere

[honest wing]

Alright thank you

[dapper cobalt]

Can you show your code?

!paste if it's too big.

[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.

[reef shell]

Imagine

[lost lagoon]

how would i implement a mute command

[lyric moat]

how do i make anti invite?

[sleek ore]

It would probably because the request errors

Try it with a valid number code

Then try it with a wrong one

Oh yeah, usually APIs have somekind of a success key, like "success": True or "code": 400

Try adding it to the code

if success:
    # do all the embed stuffs
else:
    await ctx.send("There's something wrong")

[heavy radish]

.

I managed to do it. But it doesn't work other than vsc

[slate swan]

Is anyone interested in helping me develop a discord bot for a strategy game that runs in the server? It's similar to those IDLE RPG bots.

[inland venture]

if user_message.startswith('your'):

await message.channel.send(response)
return

i got error

[little ether]

what's the error?

[dapper cobalt]

Where is user_message defined?

[slate swan]

i keep getting a eol while scanning string literal in "eve" on event:

ayayaya ty

[dapper cobalt]

It's because your string is ' ' and you used ' in "you're".

[inland venture]

thank u so much

[dapper cobalt]

Np

[sleek ore]

wrong quotes

[sleek ore]

ahh, already answered

[slate swan]

yes

[sleek ore]

note, you can do this aswell 'you\'re'

[dapper cobalt]

[] and not ().

[slate swan]

it still says the same thing

[dapper cobalt]

Show me your new code.

[slate swan]

the code related to the problem:

otherlist = ("-----Nicebot-----", "-----version 10.0-----","0%|          |","25%|███       |","50%|████    |","75%|███████   |","

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
     print("we have logged in as Nicebot and its ready to use.")

for x in otherlist:
    print(x)  

[dapper cobalt]

I said, otherlist = [] and not otherlist= ().

[slate swan]

i did it said the same error

[dapper cobalt]

Can you show the full traceback?

[slate swan]

doesnt even run it theirs a eol while scanning string literal

[dapper cobalt]

Show traceback.

[slate swan]

it doesnt have a traceback it doesnt run the code

thats what it says

[dapper cobalt]

!e

otherlist = ["-----Nicebot-----", "-----version 10.0-----","0%|          |", "25%|███       |" , "50%|████    |" , "75%|███████   |" ,"100%|██████████|"]

you changed the () right cuz if you did i tried and it didnt fix it

[heavy radish]

Hello

[dapper cobalt]

You may copy it if you want.

[heavy radish]

Why does @bot.group() not work on replit

[dapper cobalt]

Isn't it @commands.group()?

[heavy radish]

IDK

i'll try that

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.group

@discord.ext.commands.group(name=..., cls=..., **attrs)```
A decorator that transforms a function into a [`Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Group "discord.ext.commands.Group").

This is similar to the [`command()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.command "discord.ext.commands.command") decorator but the `cls` parameter is set to [`Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Group "discord.ext.commands.Group") by default.

Changed in version 1.1: The `cls` parameter can now be passed.

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.group

@group(*args, **kwargs)```
A shortcut decorator that invokes [`group()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.group "discord.ext.commands.group") and adds it to the internal command list via [`add_command()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin.add_command "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin.add_command").

[slate swan]

thx

[dapper cobalt]

I guess it's @commands.group().

Not sure about bot.group().

[dapper cobalt]

No problem.

[heavy radish]

how about the other one

to start the commands

help.command()

[dapper cobalt]

Did you first remove your default help command?

[heavy radish]

I believe so

[burnt wharf]

!d discord.Message.add_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.add\_reaction

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

Add a reaction to the message.

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

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

[heavy radish]

help_command=None

[patent lark]

discord.ext.commands.Bot has a help_command kwarg in which you can set to none

yup ^

[heavy radish]

Why??

[dapper cobalt]

Does the help command work?

[heavy radish]

I copied this from My VSC

And yes, it worked

[slate swan]

question why [] in a list and not ()

[dapper cobalt]

But the help ping does not?

[dapper cobalt]

[] is for arrays.

[heavy radish]

ye

no

[dapper cobalt]

Show me the code for the help ping.

[heavy radish]

It gives error

[patent lark]

you have defined ping somewhere else

[heavy radish]

Yes

[dapper cobalt]

Oh yes, I forgot about that.

[heavy radish]

Ik, but this is a help command

its in a group.command

[dapper cobalt]

You've got another function called ping.

[heavy radish]

yes

But this way worked on VSC

[dapper cobalt]

You can't have two functions with the same name. I think.

[patent lark]

i recommend moving it over to a different file.

[heavy radish]

How?

[dapper cobalt]

do you know OOP?

[heavy radish]

No

I just use everything in one file...

[patent lark]

mistake.

[dapper cobalt]

That's a bad way to make a Discord bot.

[heavy radish]

Hm

Can you help me with COGS

[dapper cobalt]

I think I can spoonfeed you a little bit.

[heavy radish]

I saw a video

Oh Yay

[dapper cobalt]

But for $100.

[heavy radish]

It looked confusing

[dapper cobalt]

Just kidding.

[heavy radish]

I wish

I don't even have 100$

So do you want me to make a channel or DMs?

[slate swan]

k

[dapper cobalt]

I'll make a github public repository to be a template for using cogs. Give me a moment.

[heavy radish]

Whaaaaaaaaat?

Just ping/DM once you're done

[dapper cobalt]

Sure.

[burnt wharf]

Is there a reason as to why it might say that the emoji is unknown:

message = await channel.send('Hello world')
await message.add_reaction(':wave:')```

The message itself sends though

[dapper cobalt]

@heavy radish https://github.com/ScopesCodez/discordpy-cogs

Didn't take me much.

[dapper cobalt]

Use the emoji's unicode.

[heavy radish]

@dapper cobalt

[burnt wharf]

👍

[heavy radish]

Heyy, is this supposed to be connected??

[dapper cobalt]

What is it?

[heavy radish]

The line from class

is it supposed to be together? and keep ping on please

What happen here??

[heavy radish]

[dapper cobalt]

Why are you printing in the for loop? This will cause spam in your terminal.

Also what is supposed to be together?

[heavy radish]

I just copy pasted...

[heavy radish]

Oh dw. Thats just me being dumb

What is the error?

@slate swan Theres an in built help command you'll need to remove that one first

[burnt wharf]

👍

[boreal ravine]

Its a string btw

[dapper cobalt]

bot.remove_command("help").

Can you show your code?

[slate swan]

could you show the part of the code where you are trying to do this?

You do that in the python script itself

Not in the terminal

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

bot.remove_command('help')```

[dapper cobalt]

[boreal ravine]

why did u copy that whole thing

did u put a name

[hardy geyser]

Quick question, is there a way my bot could get the ID of a user through an @ ping? Thanks

[boreal ravine]

it needs an argument

[dapper cobalt]

In a message or a parameter?

[boreal ravine]

.command("help)

[hardy geyser]

message

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[hardy geyser]

I'll look into it thanks

[dapper cobalt]

Returns a list of discord.Member object for mentioned users.

[boreal ravine]

the command

[slate swan]

do you have self?

[heavy radish]

no

[slate swan]

Happy to help

[dapper cobalt]

If you're using the template I gave you https://github.com/ScopesCodez/discordpy-cogs then look back at it.

[heavy radish]

[dapper cobalt]

Wrong.

self before ctx.

[heavy radish]

??

[slate swan]

commands in cog :

@commands.command()
async def command(self , ctx ):

[heavy radish]

Thank You

WTH

[boreal ravine]

yeah because the command is in a class so add a self

[heavy radish]

You have help commands on

hm

thats weird

[boreal ravine]

Sir, its the default one. I've told u earlier

[slate swan]

Did you remove the help command?
If yes , just rerun the bot

[heavy radish]

help_command=None ??

[boreal ravine]

???

[slate swan]

they did the remove_command method

[slate swan]

It's a arg passed in commands.Bot

[boreal ravine]

restart the bot

[boreal ravine]

I know

Ow

[boreal ravine]

Show the help command I guess?

[slate swan]

In your commands.Bot add , help_command= None

[dapper cobalt]

@heavy radish You clearly ignored comments.

[heavy radish]

Hmmm, Yea I fixed it. Thanks

BTW, Can I name the cogs folder as COGs or COGS

Lowercase looks weird

[dapper cobalt]

Yes, but don't forget to change it too in the for loop.

[heavy radish]

Oki

[dapper cobalt]

client.remove_command("help")

client.help_command = None?

[slate swan]

@slate swan does it send both of your help command and the one you don't want to?

you have your bot running multiple times , close all the previous tasks and run it again

If it's vsc , you can do it thru the run option in the sidebar

ah

no problems

[slate swan]

How can you make a bot with two languages? Example, English and Spanish

[slate swan]

how do i make my list like this?

commandslist = ("bot commands(always start with the (#) prefix ):
                command 1
                command 2
                command 3
                command 4")

so when you send it it looks like that from up to down in the middle

Is it possible to host a bot in pythonanywhere for free?

[supple thorn]

are you talking about coding languages or languages people speak

[visual island]

what's i18n?

[slate swan]

A translation module

[fleet oracle]

languages ​​people speak, that's why I led by example

[supple thorn]

Just add them?

I dont know why you had to ask it here

[fleet oracle]

so that it works

[supple thorn]

But you can just add them

[fleet oracle]

it's bots, right?

[supple thorn]

You are just adding words

It will work you dont have to ask it here

[slate swan]

Ive checked the pinned post here and they say that those services are not good for that. For repl.it as an example you need to run a server for the bot to not die, repl.it kills the process in an hour if the bot is not used iirc, and also need another service to ping the server. I think you can have a free page in pythonanywhere. That's why i was wondering if someone can use that

[fleet oracle]

so i want it to have 2 languages ​​or even more, with command! lang

[supple thorn]

You could literally add gibberish and english and it would work

[supple thorn]

Yeah you can add that

If you want it to be by guild id or by user id

[fleet oracle]

by guild

how does discordpy logging work in cogs?

discord-components

https://pypi.org/project/discord-components/

https://discord.gg/wNxPTzgf

go to that server and ask them

[boreal ravine]

thats a tuple and for the "list" thing use the enter key

[boreal ravine]

No such thing as free hosting lol

Again. Replit ISN'T hosting site

Is it free though? Thats the question

[slate swan]

Yes

[boreal ravine]

it has free hosting but only for 28 days

:/

You said you were on replit though?

WTH I am hosting my bot for more than a month and I never got a warning

where is your bot right now? On heroku or replit??

[woeful fable]

google has 300 dollars plus 3 months free hosting

[slate swan]

I can't use it

Is blocked for my country

And i can't use vpn

Is the other way around

Heroku banned my country. So i was asking if someone here have tried using pythonanywhere

[boreal ravine]

whats pythonanywhere

[brazen raft]

PythonAnywhere only allows you to use http/s ports

[slate swan]

https://www.pythonanywhere.com

[brazen raft]

So no websockets

[slate swan]

Oh. Im a discord bot newbie, i thought they used http/s

Thanks for the help still

[brazen raft]

They do probably, alongside the websocket for your bot

[slate swan]

Lonely refusing to read discord components docs

The discord bots don't use http?

How do you send a message to a specific channel

[sick birch]

if you have the ID, you can use get_channel and send that way

[slate swan]

Client.get_channel

?

[sick birch]

or guild.get_channel

2nd one is more efficient but both work

[slate swan]

So would the id be an int or str

[sick birch]

int

[slate swan]

So client.get_channel(1234567890)

correct @slate swan

[drifting arrow]

Looks correct @slate swan

also someone tagged me here earlier

[heavy radish]

That was me

[drifting arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/why-tho-though-gif-7485441

[heavy radish]

You wanted to know what I did and if it works

[drifting arrow]

Forgive me. But I forgot that conversation. Can you give me a TL;DR and if it worked?

Or do we move on?

[heavy radish]

Ummm....It worked..

[drifting arrow]

pretty sure it's something like ctx.author and author is the member object

@umbral fossil https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member.roles

[spring flax]

what was wrong with it?

[drifting arrow]

@umbral fossil it'd be something like ctx.author.roles

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_permissions

@discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(**perms)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the current channel permissions, not the guild wide permissions.

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under [`discord.Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions").

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

[drifting arrow]

I'm confused. did you want to check before the command ran? or during?

[slate swan]

if they want it after the command gets invoked , they may use py ctx.author.guild_permissions.administratorhttps://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Member.guild_permissions

[drifting arrow]

That's also a thing sure.

Many different ways to get the same result \o/

my tag is so good

argh

I need to rewrite my paginator to be able to paginate embeds

[drifting arrow]

this sucks

[vast gale]

yeah

it uses embeds tho

but it shouldn't be too hard to rewrite 😓

[drifting arrow]

Wouldn't you just do message.edit and basically put the same embed in except changing the variables?

[vast gale]

my paginator is a bit more complicated than that...

basically I need to add support for passing a list of embeds 😄
