[pliant gulch]

I'd understand an sqlite cache but that would not work in this case

[river walrus]

Dpy was pretty much a framework

So will be the new project

[dapper cobalt]

Who's Skelmis? And why does everyone love him? I'm just curious.

[pliant gulch]

I just feel like users who need to scale will extend the bot themselves and make the redis cache

[burnt ether]

bbye 😋

[pliant gulch]

This isn't something a framework/wrapper should be doing

[burnt ether]

he teaches ous

he pog

[pliant gulch]

Just like how earlier in your repo you had env variables

It should be the users who decide to set an env var then use that

[dapper cobalt]

On YouTube?

[river walrus]

It looks for an env variable if a token is not provided

[pliant gulch]

Adds an extra dependency for no reason

Just my opinion but this is just out of scope but you can choose otherwise

[paper bane]

Not sure if that tiny convenience is worth the overhead

i can imagine situations where the end user could have an env variable named "TOKEN" and get confused why their bot is throwing a gateway error

[pliant gulch]

same, esp since I use linux

[river walrus]

Isn't using redis gonna be way more memory-management-wise than a dict tho?

[paper bane]

I was talking about the usage of env variables

[river walrus]

Oh I see

[paper bane]

i hold the same stance as andy's, i think it should be up to the user

[pliant gulch]

Nothing wrong with redis, just that the setup is a hassle I'd imagine and what if the user did not want it

Up to you, your the maintainer but at the very least it shouldn't be a required cache

[river walrus]

What if it automatically configured redis

That's what I'm thinking atm

[pliant gulch]

Then what happens when you have a machine incapable of running redis?

[river walrus]

Is redis that heavy?

[pliant gulch]

I'm not sure but hardware limitations should always be kept in mind

[burnt ether]

yep 😋

[twin thicket]

cannot import name 'ui' from 'discord

help

[pliant gulch]

You need to install from the github repo, not from pypi

[brave vessel]

Did you update to the latest vers- what andy said

[twin thicket]

you got a link?

[pliant gulch]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

[dapper cobalt]

Oh cool.

[twin thicket]

so do I just run

py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py

[pliant gulch]

No you would pass in the repo url

rather then discord.py

[twin thicket]

oh got it

[pliant gulch]

You might need to add git+ as a prefix before the url not sure

[river walrus]

Yeah he should

[twin thicket]

so I need github downloaded

[pliant gulch]

no

[tough lance]

No

[twin thicket]

py -3 -m pip install -U +giturl

[pliant gulch]

git+

[twin thicket]

ok

[pliant gulch]

not just +

[twin thicket]

oh ok

so like py -3 -m pip install -U git+url

[pliant gulch]

err its @ I was wrong

git@url

[twin thicket]

oh

[pliant gulch]

the regular url might just work as well

[twin thicket]

cannot detect archive format

😦

ERROR: Cannot determine archive format of C:\Users\aaml1603\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-install-jj0pmqz2\git_c3f67d9fc45341e9bdc2eb8397ed3cb4```

Thats the whole thing

[river walrus]

python3.8 -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

I found it from the main server

[pliant gulch]

guess I got the + and @ confused

[twin thicket]

ERROR: Cannot find command 'git' - do you have 'git' installed and in your PATH?```

[river walrus]

Installed git?

[twin thicket]

oh

Cant I just run the setup.py

[river walrus]

No

[twin thicket]

oke

[river walrus]

Just install git

[twin thicket]

ok done

do I re run it

oh it did work now

now im getting cannot import name 'menus' from 'discord.ext'

[slate swan]

if you're unable to do it with git , just download the discordfolder and paste it in <pythonpath>\lib\site-packages

[river walrus]

Where?

In your code?

[twin thicket]

yeah

[river walrus]

You have to install discord.ext.menus

iirc

[lament mesa]

you need to install it

python -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord-ext-menus

[river walrus]

ty ty

[lament mesa]

😄

[heavy radish]

Can I use more than one and ??

[lament mesa]

yes

[heavy radish]

Ahh nice

[lament mesa]

if this and that and something_else and bla_bla: ...``` is valid if you have defined everything

[heavy radish]

BTW, Whats the command i use? Like i need to check if the message is from a certain user. Is it message.author.id == 12432123432 ??

[little ether]

yes

[heavy radish]

Thank You!!

[heavy radish]

Heyy

If I want to lock the command

Can I do it with both role and permission??

Like you either need manage_channel=True permission or Staff role

[boreal ravine]

yes

!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").

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

[slate swan]

[patent lark]

you shouldn't use an on_message event for commands

you should use discord.ext.commands.Bot rather than discord.Client() as well.

hey would this work for mod perms?

@patent lark

[patent lark]

no, if you are defining this outside of a decorator from discord.ext.commands then ctx in this case isnt commands.Context, on top of that, its written incorrectlty.

[slate swan]

[patent lark]

discord.ext.commands has a decorator ( @commands.has_any_role() ) , if you'd rather use that than making your own function

[upbeat vigil]

i see

so i could do @commands.has_any_role(role ids) instaed?

[patent lark]

yes

[upbeat vigil]

tysm :)

[patent lark]

it can take role ids (as an int), or you could pass the roles names as a string

[lone aurora]

how can i make an if statement of

if message in channel channel is NOT example then the message would be deleted

[patent lark]

are you trying to check if its sent in a certain channel?

[lone aurora]

yes, simply put i want it this way

when someone joins they can only access one channel called #verification, now i want them to do !verify which will give them full server access. I want there to be a feature that if they say something which is not !verify in #verification it gets deleted

[patent lark]

you could use an on_message event.

if message.channel.id != channel_id_goes_here:
  return await message.delete()
 
else:
  #code here```

[oak warren]

^^^

[lone aurora]

ic al rightthanks

[oak warren]

that can on in the command as well

[patent lark]

👍

        await ctx.author.add_roles(role)
    else: 
        await ctx.send("You are already verified!!!")``` still not working sadge

[bitter perch]

That's optional abc.Snowflake.

For the message param

[river walrus]

https://github.com/AA1999/Disthon
It's in pretty early stages
Hope it catches your eye

[bitter perch]

Not a string

[drifting arrow]

I still want it in. How do I include it?

[lone aurora]

anyone?

[bitter perch]

What are you trying to do with that param?

What is the issue @lone aurora?

[lone aurora]

File "C:\Users\HP\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.9_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python39\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\core.py", line 94, in wrapped raise CommandInvokeError(exc) from exc discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

[drifting arrow]

Well. Idk what it's suppose to display, so. for now. find out what it does.

[bitter perch]

Your utils.get is returning None

[lone aurora]

hm

it was case-sensitive...

[bitter perch]

The param makes a thread with that given snowflake

[bitter perch]

yes...

[drifting arrow]

I am trying to create a thread in the channel I called the command in.

Has to be a public thread

[bitter perch]

Well threads need to be created off of a message

[drifting arrow]

So "message" needs to be set to the message item?

[bitter perch]

Can be a message object or an id

[drifting arrow]

so ctx.message.id or ctx.message is enough?

[bitter perch]

Yes

[lament mesa]

ooh nice

[dire saffron]

well can someone help me wih muy music bot

[reef shell]

How

[drifting arrow]

Now to figure out how to break a message into multiple embs xD

[river walrus]

You're more than welcome to join the team if you know a good amount of Python and/or Typescript

[slate swan]

Library?

[drifting arrow]

In embeds.0.fields.2.value: Must be 1024 or fewer in length. I wouldn't suppose discordpy has a solution for long embs 🤔

[dire saffron]

i don't know the error specifically my command runs but doesn't give any output

[slate swan]

use description maybe , and the limits are for discord ,not discord.py

[dire saffron]

where can i share my codes so u can pin point where I am making mistake

[reef shell]

!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.

[slate swan]

paste if its long

or just send it here

[reef shell]

Or

!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.

[drifting arrow]

Maybe I'll just send it as a txt file if it's over the limit

[slate swan]

description can take upto 4096 characters

[drifting arrow]

oh

[dire saffron]

here
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/urarodeled.rb

[slate swan]

Or you can split your text in two or more embed pages

[drifting arrow]

Again. what would be the best method to doing this without breaking the message up so badly? xD

[dire saffron]

actually i am new to python bcz it started in my school this year Thanking you guys

[slate swan]

You must found it

[lone aurora]

@client.event

    elif message.content.startswith == "!verify":
        print("Verified")``` the code vaskel gave me didnt really work for me so now im using this

but the elif statement isnt working

any clue why?

[reef shell]

It's startswith('your str') iirc

[lone aurora]

ic

@reef shell is there anyway i can make the bot wait like 5 seconds before deleting the message

[reef shell]

Yes

[lone aurora]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.channel.name == "verification":
        await message.delete()
``` in this code i mean

[reef shell]

Just pass delay = 5 as a param

message.delete(delay=5)

[lone aurora]

mhm

aight ill try it

[reef shell]

!d discord.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.delete

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

Deletes the message.

Your own messages could be deleted without any proper permissions. However to delete other people’s messages, you need the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission.

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

[lone aurora]

Ok so the issue im facing now is

[drifting arrow]

Neato 😄

got my reddit unread box thingy to work! 😼

[lone aurora]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.channel.name == "verification":
        await message.delete(delay=5)``` if i add this code, then my !verify command stops working which is this

```py
@client.command()
async def verify(ctx):
    if (not ctx.author.guild_permissions.change_nickname):
        guild = ctx.guild
        role = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Member")
        role1 = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Unverified")
        await ctx.author.add_roles(role)
        await ctx.author.remove_roles(role1)
    else: 
        await ctx.send("You are already verified!!!")```

[lone aurora]

noice

[drifting arrow]

Should see how annoying it is ;D

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_message

What

[reef shell]

!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/master/api.html#discord.on_message "discord.on_message") event. If you choose to override the [`on_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/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/master/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/master/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/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context "discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context") or [`invoke()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke "discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke") if so.

await edit(content=..., embed=..., embeds=..., attachments=..., suppress=..., delete_after=None, allowed_mentions=..., view=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the message.

The content must be able to be transformed into a string via `str(content)`.

Changed in version 1.3: The `suppress` keyword-only parameter was added.

[drifting arrow]

You can send multiple embs in 1 message?

[reef shell]

Probably

[boreal ravine]

u can?

[drifting arrow]

the above bot thing says embed and embeds

[leaden anvil]

ok how do I solve this I am sorry discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not Button

[slate swan]

U can

[boreal ravine]

hm

[slate swan]

There's embeds kwarg which takes a lit of embed objects and sends them in 1 messages

The limit being 10 embeds per message

[reef shell]

Learn python

[reef shell]

!resources

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

https://pythondiscord.com/resources

[drifting arrow]

Would this still be limited to the character limit tho?

[reef shell]

Learn/read the docs first before making discord bots

[slate swan]

No

[leaden anvil]

Bro I solved also I am an idiot

[slate swan]

Only 1 embed has the max 6k+ or whatever the total limit was

[drifting arrow]

So I could send 60k characters in 1 message coz 10 embs?

[slate swan]

Probably

[reef shell]

Lmao no ig

[slate swan]

Never actually tried it

[river walrus]

Only 2k iirc

[slate swan]

Yeah no u can only send 6k characters per message

[river walrus]

So nitro adds 4k?

[slate swan]

But embeds is extremely convenient for logs

[slate swan]

In embeds

By the bot

[river walrus]

I see, thanks

[boreal ravine]

Bots have nitro right?

🦆 🤔

[slate swan]

Nope

They just have nitro cheats 😂

[boreal ravine]

Lmfao

[drifting arrow]

if I create a thread in a private channel, is that thread still publicly viewable?

[slate swan]

Afaik u can only join a thread if you can see the channel so no

[drifting arrow]

Neato

[lament mesa]

Sure

[drifting arrow]

Btw. ya'll know how this is currently annoying? well. im planning on moving all this reddit stuff to a background task and having it do its thing every minute or so

😼

[slate swan]

why do i feel something illegal in this code

[drifting arrow]

are your intents on the bot like this?

[slate swan]

lemme check

[slate swan]

alright i forgot to do it let me try now

[boreal ravine]

it means that you need to enable certain intents (just enable all of them) at https://discord.com/developers/applications/ to do what you're doing

[slate swan]

alright perfectly working thanks

[boreal ravine]

👍

[drifting arrow]

why does he get the credit?! ;-; thank me too

[slate swan]

@drifting arrow thx to you too

[boreal ravine]

😂

[drifting arrow]

\o/ yay

[slate swan]

lmao i was thanking you too

[drifting arrow]

I helped for a change. So gosh darnit I want my credit

[white plinth]

is there a way you could declare a command with a variable?

[lament mesa]

yes

[tiny ibex]

Wait wdym by that?

[white plinth]

how would I do that?

[lament mesa]

if the variable is a function you can py bot.add_command(commands.Command(command_func))

[tiny ibex]

Cuz it is......

[slate swan]

Can use nitro emojis and shit without actual nitro => nitro cheats

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

uh why

well i was ip banned some damn friend of mine got banned a few months ago -_-

and now all good nice

@bot.command()
async def botinfo(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(
        title=f"ChrimataGame's Info",
        color=0xffcc00)
    embed.add_field(name=f'{len(bot.users)} users use ChrimataGame', value='__ __')
    embed.add_field(name=f'{len(bot.guilds)} servers invited ChrimataGame', value='__ __')
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

how does only one user uses it? there are almost 100 members in these servers

[reef shell]

It's the count of total users bot can see

For precise count use
s=0
for g in bot.guilds:
s+=g.member_count

[slate swan]

ok, ty

[white plinth]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

the location of my main app is for example : "python\discord"
I am trying to reach that location from this location : "python\discord\cogs".
How can I "go back" in the directory in python? ty ahead

[tiny ibex]

I didn't knew that it's amazing

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[tiny ibex]

Can it also send msgs over 4000 words?

[slate swan]

No

[steep estuary]

how to react if someone reply a user

[slate swan]

But an embed's description can have 4k characters

[tiny ibex]

That's amazing

[steep estuary]

plzz

[boreal ravine]

what

speak english plz

[steep estuary]

-_-

i have an afk command

if someone mention a afk user

bot tell him that he is afk

but i want bot to tell the user on reply also

[slate swan]

how do i use an opensource code?

i mean... i got modmail open source code but i dont know how to use js ( basically i dont know how to apply the stuff to my bot ( i mean token ) )

[tiny ibex]

Is there not something like config or botconfig?

In files?

[slate swan]

ye

config.js

[tiny ibex]

Just config it

[slate swan]

exports.TOKEN = '';

exports.PREFIX = '';

exports.news_API = '';

exports.giphy_API = '';

exports.AME_API = '';

ooh ok thanks

@bot.command()
async def with(ctx):

i have a syntax error, because with is already a function, what do i do?

[tiny ibex]

Just put your token

And prefix and api

[slate swan]

thankk you so much this server helps alot for free

[tiny ibex]

And all that

[slate swan]

ok if i dont need one then? like AME and NEWS api

[tiny ibex]

Leave them blank

[slate swan]

ok thanks

[drifting arrow]

AM BACK

Did you almost miss me?

[valid niche]

With isn’t a function but a reserved keyword in python for a context manager

So it’s forbidden to have functions and variables be that name

[jade jolt]

could do _with and use the name kwarg in @bot.command()

[slate swan]

so.. it is impossible to make a with command?

[slate swan]

Name the func _with and in the decorator add name='with'

[valid niche]

Do as @jade jolt said

[jade jolt]

yup

[slate swan]

ok, tyall!

[jade jolt]

np c:

[slate swan]

coughs its coming again and again how do i add the bot to server

....anyone here?.....

[maiden fable]

Show your discord dev bot settings

[slate swan]

alright

one sec

[maiden fable]

Disable the Code Grant checkbox

[slate swan]

done

[slate swan]

perfect thanks

[lofty heron]

hi i'm not sure why looking for ~/cogs/previousids.txt returns in the console file not found. can somebody explain why?

[slate swan]

i know im asking lots of junk but... can someone tell me how do i run the code for javascript ( probably stupidest question ever but im not familiar with js )

[lofty heron]

npm start kek

you need to install dependencies tho

[oak warren]

how do i convert an embed object to an embed

[oak warren]

nvm i got it

[slate swan]

whats that coughs

[drifting arrow]

Aight. Reddit inbox feature done

yay

[lofty heron]

nice

[drifting arrow]

Now whenever I get reply on reddit I can get pinged on discord 😼

[lofty heron]

lol

[slate swan]

[lofty heron]

[vast gale]

Hi

I'm curious, this is subjective what are the core features that any bot needs. I'm talking true core, like help command and error handler.

I think what's needed is error handler, help command, cog loading system, and maybe a paginator?

[slate swan]

Yes, + jishaku

[tiny ibex]

Cuz you need to install dependencies

Gimme the github link

[serene lynx]

SELF_

what does those innits and self and stuff mean

[trail breach]

can mentions be embedded?

[gloomy quest]

Use discohook and see JSON data editor

it will show you the format

i think

[serene lynx]

any sample images?

[trail breach]

no @trail breach this

can this mention be embedded

[valid niche]

you can put mentions in embeds but they will not ping the user(s)

[trail breach]

oh

i can use text and embed though lemme try that

[gloomy quest]

Like prism

[serene lynx]

like this?

[trail breach]

yes

[gloomy quest]

Ditttt

please avoid spoonfeeding, it's against the spirit of this discord

[serene lynx]

Sorry, I do not know

[trail breach]

i dont use code pieces idk about so ill first understand it

[boreal ravine]

How does one go about getting a users join date and then changing/converting it to a unix timestamp?

[valid niche]

a member.joined_at returns a datetime object

which you can convert however you like

!d datetime.datetime

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime

class datetime.datetime(year, month, day, hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0, tzinfo=None, *, fold=0)```
The *year*, *month* and *day* arguments are required. *tzinfo* may be `None`, or an instance of a [`tzinfo`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/datetime.html#datetime.tzinfo "datetime.tzinfo") subclass. The remaining arguments must be integers in the following ranges...

[trail breach]

user:Member is for the author??

[novel rampart]

Yes

@trail breach

[trail breach]

oh

k ty

im taking a mention as an argument if i print it shows me id

how can i convert it to name

any1

[novel rampart]

ctx.user

[novel rampart]

@trail breach use the this

[trail breach]

ohk lemme try

[novel rampart]

For get name

[novel rampart]

Mm

[trail breach]

'Context' object has no attribute 'user'

[plucky shoal]

You probably mean that

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.author

Union[User, Member]: Returns the author associated with this context’s command. Shorthand for Message.author

[trail breach]

no i want to take a mention arguement to use in a command

if i print it prints user id

not name

[novel rampart]

One sec

I will tell you

[trail breach]

@bot.command()
async def code(ctx,lang,mention):```ok

[novel rampart]

ctx.author.mention

[trail breach]

not the author

[novel rampart]

@trail breach you can mention

[novel rampart]

Then

[trail breach]

whom the author mentions

[novel rampart]

Oh Ok one sec

[trail breach]

!command @novel rampart

kk

[drifting arrow]

!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.

[novel rampart]

@bot.command()
async def whois(ctx, member : discord.Member):

[novel rampart]

@trail breach use this

The member that you want

Athor mentioned is the member

@trail breach

[trail breach]

ok lemme try

[novel rampart]

This code should be working

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

class discord.Member```
Represents a Discord member to a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This implements a lot of the functionality of [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

x == y Checks if two members are equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

x != y Checks if two members are not equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the member’s name with the discriminator.

[trail breach]

it works ty @novel rampart

[novel rampart]

@trail breach read this document also then u understand what is that code

[boreal ravine]

hmm

[trail breach]

ok

[novel rampart]

It’s my pleasure

[jagged wigeon]

hey

this is for discord.py right?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[jagged wigeon]

ok

can someone please help me with a suggest command?

with the bot = command.Bot

like, not client, bot

[novel rampart]

That is your creative mindset

[jagged wigeon]

hmm

but, i dont know how to do it

[novel rampart]

What

[boreal ravine]

what

[jagged wigeon]

the suggest command

[jagged wigeon]

i said that i use bot, not client

or that language

[novel rampart]

I tell that answer

[jagged wigeon]

i am new in python

[novel rampart]

Oh

[boreal ravine]

it's just a bot constructor it doesn't matter much?

[jagged wigeon]

no no

[novel rampart]

What all things you know in python

[jagged wigeon]

let me explain

[novel rampart]

Mm

[jagged wigeon]

oh yea, like that

[boreal ravine]

Like what

[jagged wigeon]

idk

[boreal ravine]

Why does it matter

[jagged wigeon]

like you said

[novel rampart]

M

[jagged wigeon]

because client is diferent

i use bot

[novel rampart]

No

[jagged wigeon]

ok whatever

[boreal ravine]

discord.Client?

[slate swan]

It matters because Bot has commands

[jagged wigeon]

can you help me?

[novel rampart]

The bot and Clint is only a variable name

[jagged wigeon]

yes, i use discord.Bot

[jagged wigeon]

ik

[jagged wigeon]

exactly

[novel rampart]

Oh I understand

Nee hat did you mean

[jagged wigeon]

so, cand someone help me?

[novel rampart]

Yes

[boreal ravine]

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

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

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

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

[jagged wigeon]

to make a suggest command

[boreal ravine]

Im confused

[jagged wigeon]

why

[boreal ravine]

he said discord.Bot

[jagged wigeon]

yes

[boreal ravine]

Which isn't a thing apparently

[slate swan]

It isn't

[jagged wigeon]

how

[slate swan]

It's commands.Bot

[jagged wigeon]

oh wait

[boreal ravine]

you mean discord.ext.commands.Bot?

[jagged wigeon]

commands.Bot

[novel rampart]

That is you creative mind

[jagged wigeon]

srry

[boreal ravine]

ok

[jagged wigeon]

i am new in python!!

[spring flax]

you know it?

[novel rampart]

Then what did you want

[jagged wigeon]

...

help!

that s what i want

[novel rampart]

What help

[spring flax]

Also, if you're new to discord.py I suggest reading this for a basic understanding, it's useful https://vcokltfre.dev/

[novel rampart]

Tell that

[jagged wigeon]

to make, a ,suggest, commad

[jagged wigeon]

ok

but can anyone help me ?

or i am wasting my time 🙄

[spring flax]

It's best if you read it first getting a basic understanding of the library

[jagged wigeon]

...

[spring flax]

what?

[jagged wigeon]

nothing

i can't read rn

i need some help rn but.. anyway

can i post a picture?

[boreal ravine]

Just make a command and make it send 2 that specific channel or the channel where it was used

[spring flax]

i would suggest not rushing.

[jagged wigeon]

no

i want to show you how i want to look the command like

can i do it or i get banned/warned?

[hasty iron]

what’s the issue

[jagged wigeon]

look, this

thats how i want the command to be

[hasty iron]

okay

[spring flax]

Tried helping but

[jagged wigeon]

and i want, if someone say it like in general, to move it in suggestions

[hasty iron]

okay

[jagged wigeon]

do u understand what i am saying?

[boreal ravine]

well you'll need to get the channel first to send it

[hasty iron]

make an embed, send it to the channel, add the reactions and wait

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_channel

get_channel(id, /)```
Returns a channel or thread with the given ID.

[jagged wigeon]

i got it

ok

[jagged wigeon]

i donno how to do ittt

i am neww, and i dont have time for reading

[hasty iron]

!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.

[spring flax]

Don't rush it.

[hasty iron]

Messageable.send returns a Message object

[spring flax]

We are not going to spoonfeed

[jagged wigeon]

ok ok, sorry

[novel rampart]

@jagged wigeon learn basic of discord.py

[jagged wigeon]

...

[novel rampart]

Then you can make without our help

[jagged wigeon]

ok, whatever

[icy seal]

With diabolical here. If I wanted to write somebody’s code, I’d get a job LOL

[novel rampart]

Lol

[boreal ravine]

there are no basics of a module though? Not to my knowledge it is.

[jagged wigeon]

so

how can i make the command like?

[novel rampart]

I mean learn discord.py lol

[icy seal]

Wdym by that..? You can familiarise yourself with a module “learning the basics”

[jagged wigeon]

i need a little spoonfeed

[novel rampart]

Learn discord.py

[jagged wigeon]

omgg

wow

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Embed

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=Embed.Empty, color=Embed.Empty, title=Embed.Empty, type='rich', url=Embed.Empty, description=Embed.Empty, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

Certain properties return an `EmbedProxy`, a type that acts similar to a regular [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.9)") except using dotted access, e.g. `embed.author.icon_url`. If the attribute is invalid or empty, then a special sentinel value is returned, [`Embed.Empty`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed.Empty "discord.Embed.Empty").

For ease of use, all parameters that expect a [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.9)") are implicitly casted to [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.9)") for you.

[spring flax]

create an embed with what the user suggests, example if he does ,suggest this is a test the embed description/a field value would be this is a test and send it to a channel and add reactions.

[jagged wigeon]

oh yea

[icy seal]

You need to learn what that is

[novel rampart]

Look this

[jagged wigeon]

its hard

[spring flax]

Not really

[novel rampart]

No

[jagged wigeon]

not for you

[novel rampart]

It is very easy

[boreal ravine]

⏫

[icy seal]

We’re here to answer specific questions you have if you’re finding it difficult. But you have to give us the impression that you’re at least trying…

[jagged wigeon]

okok

[icy seal]

https://cog-creators.github.io/discord-embed-sandbox/ This is a useful tool for visualisation

[jagged wigeon]

wait a sec

[spring flax]

But, of course, first starting with a basic understanding would be a lot easier, than first trying to create this suggestion bot.

[jagged wigeon]

i made a little help command

with embed

@bot.command(aliases=['Help'])
async def help(ctx):
    em = discord.Embed(
    description='**Admin Only** \n ```$clear [number] - Clears the number of messages you want```\
    \n ```$create-channel [name] - Creates a text channel with the name that you want```\
    \n ```$create-vc [name] - Creates a voice channel with the name that you want```\
    \n ```$kick [member] - Kicks a member of your choice from the guild```\
    \
n ```$ban [member] - Bans a member of you choice from the guild```\
    \n ```$unban [member] - Unbans a member of you choice from the guild```\ 

[novel rampart]

The better way I suggest wach any good YouTube videos for the discord.py

That is better

For you

[spring flax]

So you know embds

now just do reactions

[novel rampart]

Yes

[boreal ravine]

what the frick

[icy seal]

!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.

[jagged wigeon]

what?

[spring flax]

!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.

[jagged wigeon]

so how it would look like

like that?

[novel rampart]

Yes

[spring flax]

you can make it the same as the screenshot

[jagged wigeon]

@bot.command()
async def suggest(ctx):
em= discord.Embed(
bot.get_channel(id) 
description = 'A help command')

so thats the start

[jagged wigeon]

howw

thats what i am trying to do

[spring flax]

make the embed, send it in a channel, add the reactions

[jagged wigeon]

ok

[boreal ravine]

Indentations

[jagged wigeon]

the reactions are ok, but how i send it in a channel?

[boreal ravine]

Like I said earlier you'll need to get the channel first

[jagged wigeon]

how

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_channel

get_channel(id, /)```
Returns a channel or thread with the given ID.

[jagged wigeon]

ok

[spring flax]

!d discord.abc.Messageable.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=None, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, mention_author=None, view=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[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
https://github.com/AA1999/Disthon

[jagged wigeon]

gud now?

[boreal ravine]

no

[jagged wigeon]

where do i put it then

[boreal ravine]

Its bot.get_channel(id)

[river walrus]

You didn't indent your code

[jagged wigeon]

indent?

[boreal ravine]

Anywhere really

[boreal ravine]

!indents

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info

2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[jagged wigeon]

gud

[spring flax]

indents are wrong there

[jagged wigeon]

ok ok

whats next in my code?

[boreal ravine]

1. Indents
2. make a variable to store the channel id
3. the description of the embed is wrongly placed

[stuck flare]

from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")

@bot.command(name = "hello")
async def hello_world(ctx: commands.Context):
    await ctx.send("Hello, World!")```

if i type !hello the bot sends messg twice

[boreal ravine]

Do you have multiple instances running of somekind?

[stuck flare]

i dont undeerstand

wdym

[jagged wigeon]

@bot.command()
async def suggest(ctx):
em= discord.Embed(
description = 'A help command'
bot.get_channel(id))```

@spring flax gud now?

[boreal ravine]

an example or single occurrence of something.

In this case I said multiple so do you have multiple instances of your bot running?

[stuck flare]

i dont think so

[boreal ravine]

indents

[jagged wigeon]

how do i do them?

[boreal ravine]

try regenerating your bots token

[jagged wigeon]

idk

[stuck flare]

okay

[boreal ravine]

Try to learn python basics before you try discord.py

the rest i will try to learn

[stuck flare]

how do i stop my bot running from command propmpt

[jagged wigeon]

where do i put it

@boreal ravine

class suggestions(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.command(description = 'Add a suggestion for this community!')
    async def suggest(self, ctx, *,suggestion):

        await channel.send(embed=suggestEmbed)

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(suggestions(bot))```

gud?

[spring flax]

you'd be helping yourself if you go through the !resources

[jagged wigeon]

oh

but is the last command gud?

i didnt

[spring flax]

are you copying code...?

[stuck flare]

@boreal ravine i didnt realize that the code was also running in vsc lol

[boreal ravine]

No :)

[spring flax]

you are missing a required kwarg on making the embed instance i think

[stuck flare]

now i get this error discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "ping" is not found

@bot.command(name="ping")
async def ping(ctx: commands.Context):
    await ctx.send(f"Pong! {round(bot.latency * 1000)}ms")```

[jagged wigeon]

maybe?

[stuck flare]

help?

[jagged wigeon]

eh whatever

i will stop, no one helps me

[stuck flare]

bruv dead chat

!cogs

!cog

[drifting arrow]

oh

@stuck flare oh

[maiden fable]

What do u need help with?

[drifting arrow]

is that command in a cog @stuck flare ?

[maiden fable]

No

[stone palm]

hi

[maiden fable]

Else it would have commands.command deco

[drifting arrow]

his comments are !cog and !cogs, i assume he wanted it to be in a cog. hold up.

[stone palm]

so um
how do i send a menu

[drifting arrow]

Which is why I am confirming. Coz his followup comments are !cog and !cogs

[maiden fable]

Select Menu?

[maiden fable]

It's fine... Just told u haha

[jagged wigeon]

dosent metter

[stone palm]

yes...```py
class Select(discord.ui.Select):
def init(self):
super().init(custom_id="Some identifier", placeholder="Placeholder", min_values=1, max_values=1, options=[discord.SelectOption(label="Hello", emoji="😳")])

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message("Hello", ephemeral=True) # to get the selected options, you can use interaction.data

[maiden fable]

It does... Everyone matters to me, at least (:

[jagged wigeon]

i abondonated it

[jagged wigeon]

a suggest command

idk how to do it

in commands.Bot thought

[maiden fable]

view = View().add_item(Select()) 
await ctx.send(view=view) 

[maiden fable]

Oh that's easy... Lemme tell u

[jagged wigeon]

please

[maiden fable]

Get the channel where u want to send the message with channel = guild.get_channel(id)

Then just do channel.send(suggestion)

!d discord.Guild.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_channel

get_channel(channel_id, /)```
Returns a channel with the given ID.

Note

This does *not* search for threads.

[maiden fable]

Did u import everything?

[slate swan]

async def check_perms(check: str):
                fetch_arg = check
                db_func = discord.utils.get(bot.get_all_channels(), name=fetch_arg)
                channel_id = db_func.id
                db_user = bot.get_channel(channel_id)


                msg_info = discord.utils.get(db_user.history(limit=100).flatten())
                msg = msg_info.content
                msg_id = msg_info.id
                msg_fetch = db_user.fetch_message(msg_id)
                return msg


# Permission Variables
mod_one = check_perms("mod_one")
mod_two = check_perms("mod_two")
mod_three = check_perms("mod_three")
perm_on_member_join = check_perms("perm_on_member_join")
content_on_member_join = check_perms("on_member_join_content")

So, instead of the function returning the message inside a channel, it returns:

<coroutine object check_perms at 0x7fc11dfed830>

Anyone know why it's doing that?

[maiden fable]

U didn't await something

Ah

[stone palm]

oh i frgt menus is an external thing that i need to import from github right

[maiden fable]

await check_perms()

Cz it's async

You forgot to await it

[stone palm]

wait what do i import

?

@jagged wigeon

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 30007): Maximum number of webhooks reached (10)
``` how would i catch that error in a except block ?

[slate swan]

you dont need to define the name of the command it was something else , but since you have the command named as ping it would work fine ,restart ur bot or change it to another name and back to that name

[jagged wigeon]

yes?

[maiden fable]

except discord.HTTPException:

[hasty iron]

use get_event_loop

get_running_loop raises an error if no loop is running as you can see

it has nothing to do with the view

oh nvm

its disnake's fault

actually

you have to instantiate a view inside a command

or when the bot is running

[boreal ravine]

This happens with me sometimes lol

[hasty iron]

not before

[stone palm]

oh

[maiden fable]

db_user is None

[slate swan]

I get that - but why

[hoary gust]

guys how can i run a different file from one another file

[slate swan]

I don't understand why bot.get_channel failed

[hoary gust]

i mean i am trying to run a file of my dashboard from my main file

[hasty iron]

because the bot's cache isnt filled yet

[slate swan]

Is there a way to fix that

[hasty iron]

do those operations after the bot starts

[hoary gust]

@hasty iron can u plz help me

[hasty iron]

what framework are you using

[hoary gust]

quart

i want to run the file from my main file but how

[slate swan]

So after the on_ready event?

[hoary gust]

bot.loop

[stone palm]

why do i keep on getting this?

[hoary gust]

???

[slate swan]

getting what

[hasty iron]

ok so quart has an async function that runs the application that is app.run_task, import your app variable to the bot file, and use bot.loop.create_task(app.run_task())

[hasty iron]

why are you nesting classes

[stone palm]

whats wrong?

how should i be doing it...?

[hasty iron]

there is no reason for you to nest classes

[stone palm]

ok

[slate swan]

I did

getting the same error

[stone palm]

but isnt that how menus are added

[hasty iron]

??

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/dropdown.py

why are you trying to do that

[hoary gust]

ok wait i got the way

[hasty iron]

you're trying to get the bot?

into the app?

[stone palm]

into the app...??

[hasty iron]

not talking to you

[stone palm]

oh

im trying to make a simple menu ;-;

[hasty iron]

read this

[stone palm]

it isnt working :/

[drifting arrow]

Now to monitor my reddit application and make loads of comments and posts to ensure it works as intended.

[stone palm]

thats what i referred to but it isnt working

added something similar

[hasty iron]

thats no where as similar to the example

[stone palm]

hmmmm

[hasty iron]

dont know where they added nested classes in the example

[boreal ravine]

How would I go about converting my account creation date (2020, 6, 9) to an epoch time?

[hasty iron]

you mean a unix timestamp?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[hasty iron]

!d datetime.datetime.timestamp

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.timestamp

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

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

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

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

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

        await interaction.response.send_message("Hello", ephemeral=True) # to get the selected options, you can use interaction.data
    

class DropdownView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.add_item(Dropdown)

    @commands.command()
    async def select(self, ctx):
        view = DropdownView()
        await ctx.send("ok", view=view)

ok now?

[hasty iron]

why is the command inside the view?

[stone palm]

its a cog '_'

[hasty iron]

yeah clearly from the code you just sent

[stone palm]

so...?

[hasty iron]

so what

you didnt instantiate Dropdown

[boreal ravine]

owo

[stone palm]

hmmmmm

[grim oar]

I think you want time module, not datetime

[boreal ravine]

hm

[boreal ravine]

I got the hang of it I just dont know how you can use member.created_at inside the time.time thing or the datetime thing

[hasty iron]

what

member.created_at returns a datetime object

time.time returns the current time

!d time.time

[unkempt canyon]

time.time

time.time() → float```
Return the time in seconds since the [epoch](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/time.html#epoch) as a floating point number. The specific date of the epoch and the handling of [leap seconds](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second) is platform dependent. On Windows and most Unix systems, the epoch is January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 (UTC) and leap seconds are not counted towards the time in seconds since the epoch. This is commonly referred to as [Unix time](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time). To find out what the epoch is on a given platform, look at `gmtime(0)`.

Note that even though the time is always returned as a floating point number, not all systems provide time with a better precision than 1 second. While this function normally returns non-decreasing values, it can return a lower value than a previous call if the system clock has been set back between the two calls.

how do I convert and int or str to discord.Member

any ideas

[slate swan]

and

int

or string_

can you tell me the code

[reef mica]

rn i dont have any

my idea is to use the get_member

so I input an int

and it puts the int in the get_member function

member = int(input("Member Id To Move: "))
channel = int(input("Channel Id To Move: "))
member = client.get_guild(713310556572090439).get_member(member)
await member.move_to(client.get_channel(channel))
print("Moving")

dont know if this gonna work

[hasty iron]

!d discord.ext.commands.MemberConverter

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.MemberConverter

class discord.ext.commands.MemberConverter(*args, **kwargs)```
Converts to a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member").

All lookups are via the local guild. If in a DM context, then the lookup is done by the global cache.

The lookup strategy is as follows (in order)...

[reef mica]

another question

how can I implement

    while True:
        member = int(input("Member Id To Move: "))
        channel = int(input("Channel Id To Move: "))
        member = client.get_guild(713310556572090439).get_member(member)
        await member.move_to(client.get_channel(channel))
        print("Moving")

so it runs all the time

and doesnt cancel the other listeners

i put it in onready but that didnt work

[jade jolt]

iirc you cant

[reef mica]

bruh
