[fallow mauve]

but thats the command

[final iron]

@fallow mauve

bot.cooldown(1, 1, commands.BucketType)

[fallow mauve]

where in the code do i put that

[final iron]

That's an example

Don't copy and paste

Look at the documentation yourself

[fallow mauve]

i dont copy/paste

but i also dont get where that fits into the code

[final iron]

Under the command decorator

[fallow mauve]

decorator, pretend i dont know what that means

sry if im a pain to deal w, i just started using python

[final iron]

My keyboard just broke

Give me a sec

[fallow mauve]

oof

my mouse is half-broken

cant scroll well at all

[final iron]

bot.command()

Under that

[fallow mauve]

so if this is the command then...

what line is the decorator

[final iron]

Above it

Send the code

I'll tell you

[cosmic crystal]

has there been any news about discord.py since the author said he's stepping down?

[final iron]

Nope

[fallow mauve]

if message.content.startswith('<ping'):
await message.channel.send('pong')
if message.author == client.user:
return

[final iron]

No the full code

[final iron]

aaaaa

[fallow mauve]

?

[final iron]

I'm guessing you're following a tutorial?

[fallow mauve]

i was in the beginning, ive torn that apart and redid things

*redone

[final iron]

I would really suggest against what you're doing

[fallow mauve]

but the basis of the code is what i learned from a tutorial

[fallow mauve]

against what?

[final iron]

Literally everything

[fallow mauve]

ok...

[final iron]

You should start from scratch and find a good tutorial

[fallow mauve]

-_-

[final iron]

Sorry about that

But this is really bad practice

[fallow mauve]

its fine

its not you its my friend

he sent me the tutorial and said to follow it

[final iron]

Find a different one

And make sure it's up to date

[fallow mauve]

i was following this one, uploaded in 2020:

[final iron]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nW8c7vT6Hl4&list=PLW3GfRiBCHOhfVoiDZpSz8SM_HybXRPzZ

Follow this series

[fallow mauve]

ok

i dont need to know anything except coding it, i have everything else set up

[final iron]

Its a 14 part series

Find the other parts

[fallow mauve]

ok

[final iron]

I wouldn't suggest following this for long though

[fallow mauve]

thats long

ok, why?

[final iron]

You want to be able to code yourself

[fallow mauve]

true, i cant by copy/pasting tutorials the whole time

[final iron]

Yup

It is easier to start out with a tutorial though

[fallow mauve]

mhm

whats wrong with this?

it says theres a syntax error

[wicked atlas]

Those need to be two seperate lines

[fallow mauve]

what needs to be?

what goes in the first line and what goes in the second?

this?

[wicked atlas]

I’m on my phone right now, so cant really type anything out thats really good, but take a look at the code in the tutorial you said you were following

[fallow mauve]

nvm

i figured it out

[slate swan]

why is there an error

[full lily]

indentation

[slate swan]

?

[full lily]

!indent

[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
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[slate swan]

how do i fix it

[full lily]

unindent line 2

[slate swan]

how?

[full lily]

did you read the embed?

This seems like a really silly thing to be stuck on but i've been puzzling over this error for a few weeks now (i forgot about it till i tried the command today)py await ctx.reply(f"I am in {str(guilds)} servers!

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.

[full lily]

await ctx.reply(f"I am in {str(guilds)} servers! Their names are: {",".join([guild.name for guild in self.bot.guilds])}" 

Try this

[slate swan]

?

[full lily]

you have a return outside of a function on line 23

You should be getting errors

[wicked atlas]

Check your indentation. You have some if statements that I don't think you mean to have outside of functions

[slate swan]

how do i fix?

[full lily]

not have a return outside of a function

[slate swan]

ok

this gud?

[slate phoenix]

there is still a ton of errors in your code

what errors?

[slate phoenix]

for one your on_message doesnt have an event decorator, it also doesnt have proper indentation for the code under it and wont work, you're also using the parameter self but its not a cog so it doesnt need it and wont even work

how do i fix this ?

[high flame]

code blocks--

[misty stream]

oh sorry

[hasty iron]

thats not a code block

[misty stream]

better

[high flame]

the error says you can't compare string and int

you use > operator

[hasty iron]

limit takes an int and you’re passing in a string

[misty stream]

oh

how would i send a int

cause i type a int

/clear 100

[high flame]

or wait forget what i told

[hasty iron]

cast it to an int

[misty stream]

int(amount) like that ?

[hasty iron]

yes

[high flame]

yeah

[misty stream]

it says invalid syntax

[hasty iron]

yeah it does

[misty stream]

so its not correct it seems

[hasty iron]

because you’re not doing it correctly

[misty stream]

oh

what is the correct way

sorry still a noob

[high flame]

not in parameters

you can do amounttoclear: int

[hasty iron]

if your lib allows it

[high flame]

mm

[misty stream]

ill check

[high flame]

or do int(amouttoclear) when passing it to limit kwarg

[misty stream]

yep my library allows it Xd

[hasty iron]

surprising

[slate swan]

XDD

you joke?

[high flame]

hmmmmmmmmmmm

[fallow mauve]

no i actually didnt see the typo lol

idk how i missed it

[hasty iron]

it isnt a typo though

its "not having enough python knowledge"

[high flame]

you shouldn't start with discord.py without python knowledge

[fallow mauve]

i knew that it was wrong

[hasty iron]

oh you knew

[fallow mauve]

mhm

[hasty iron]

sure

[fallow mauve]

i just didnt see it

You would need to know how to make a database

[kindred epoch]

i do

i need a level algorithm

[brazen seal]

how i can do help command with editing message after add reaction ?

[kindred epoch]

!d discord.Message.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.edit

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.

[kindred epoch]

use that when they click on a reaction on the message

[final iron]

You could try and copy mee6's

[brazen seal]

how i can check this?

[kindred epoch]

mee6's code is public?

[brazen seal]

when user click reaction

[final iron]

Nope

[kindred epoch]

!d discord.Client.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

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

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

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

[final iron]

You would have to reverse engineer it

[kindred epoch]

@brazen seal it has a example of reaction

nah

im not down for that

[final iron]

You would have to start from scratch then

I doubt you could find something online

[kindred epoch]

i just need a level algorithm

[fallow mauve]

hey, i watched the tutorial you sent me, does this look better?

[patent lark]

client should be bot, since discord.Client() is a thing, its better practice.

[brazen seal]

okay but what if user click reaction message bot edit it user click another reaction bot edit it and user click first emoji again

[fallow mauve]

ok, i just followed the tutorial i was sent

[patent lark]

you should also not make commands with an on_message event, commands.Bot has command decorators

[fallow mauve]

i dont understand how that works yet :/

[fallow mauve]

fixed it

[patent lark]

one second.

i recommend you check this out

[fallow mauve]

ok

[final iron]

There really is no difference between calling your bot object bot and client

[patent lark]

incorrect.

[final iron]

If you're starting out you should name it bot

[final iron]

How

It's the same object just a different name

[patent lark]

a variable name is this case wont change a thing in how your code is ran, but, like said, since discord.Client() is a thing we should use bot for the bot object, its better when it comes to the aspect of practice.

[final iron]

Yeah ik

But in what situation would you use discord.Client()

Imo if you're starting out call it bot but if you have a lot of existing code don't bother

[slate swan]

Guys I have a really weird problem.

My on_reaction_add event only works after I initate a command. When i start the code for the bot.

@client.listen("on_reaction_add")
async def open_ticket(reaction, user):
    await reaction.message.channel.send("Reaction Function")
    message = reaction.message```

It gives me no errors whatsoever when this happens

[patent lark]

yeah, its not worth changing if you've named in client in the past, its just better practice-wise, and im very "picky" when it comes to things like that.

[final iron]

Yeah I can respect that

That's my opinion also

[slate swan]

I literally made a "startup" command so that this reaction event works

i have 0 clue how to fix this

anyone got any tips or anyway to help me out here with this weird problem?

[covert igloo]

hey im trying to edit a voice channel name

how woul di go about doing so

[final iron]

If through a command you would put something for the current name of the channel and the new name in the args

So you can get the name of the voice channel you want to edit

Then you would get the voice channel and change it

[fallow mauve]

is there a way ot make it so the bot repeats whatever you say, like if i wanted to add a command like <say _____, and it would say whatever was in the blank, how would i do that?

[final iron]

In the args you would put something like *, user_message

Then like ctx.send(user_message)

Again don't copy and paste

Take what I say as an example

And learn for yourself

[pliant gulch]

You need to get the instance of the voice channel, could be via get_channel then use the edit method of it and pass in the new name there

!d discord.Client.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.get\_channel

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

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.VoiceChannel.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.edit

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

Edits the channel.

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

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

Changed in version 2.0: Edits are no longer in-place, the newly edited channel is returned instead.

how do i get the bot to react with an emoji to the command?

[kindred epoch]

!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.

[kindred epoch]

Use that

[fallow mauve]

thx

[slate swan]

Anyone knows how to make a bot grab a channel using its ID and then grabbing a message in that channel using the ID of the message?

To describe what I mean i made an example code that is not valid but can be understanded what the endgoal is below..

channel = await client.fetch_channel(channelID)
message = await channel.fetch_message(messageID)

or something?

[native sail]

is discord.py actually discontiunued ?

[lyric moat]

Can anyone help?

[fallow mauve]

what do i replace the (emoji) with?

the emoji u want it to react with

[fallow mauve]

how do i put a emoji in the code?

[lyric moat]

try that

[fallow mauve]

but i cant put an emoji in the code

[lyric moat]

await add_reaction(🤣)

try that

how do i get role id? with

        await guild.create_role(name=role) 

[reef shell]

role_obj = await guild.create_role(name=role)

Guild.create_role() method returns the newly created role object

Then you can access the role id

[fallow mauve]

gtg for today bye

discord.Guild.create\_role

await create_role(*, name=..., permissions=..., color=..., colour=..., hoist=..., mentionable=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") for the guild.

All fields are optional.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to do this.

Changed in version 1.6: Can now pass `int` to `colour` keyword-only parameter.

[final kettle]

kool

bruh

[final kettle]

how would I go about setting multiple values to one field? or is that even possible?

[reef shell]

Are you talking about embeds?

[final kettle]

yea

[reef shell]

wdym mean by multiple values?

Lines?

[final kettle]

want something like this but i want multiple values on every day...

[reef shell]

Yes you can

[final kettle]

how?

this is what i got rn

@client.command()
async def Coaching(ctx):
    embed=discord.Embed(
        title='Available Dates',
        description='',
        color=discord.Color.blue())

    embed.add_field(name='Monday', value=m1, inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name='Tuesday', value=m2, inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name='Wednesday', value=m3, inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name='Thursday', value=m4, inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name='Friday', value=m5, inline=False)


    embed.set_footer(text='Discord: Joshua1N#1103 | Email: [e-mail]')

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[reef shell]

what are the m1, m2....s?

String?

[final kettle]

yea.

if they do a command to fill those dates, they will be removed from embed msg

[reef shell]

You can have multiple lines

In one field

And also check this

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-limits-limits

[misty quail]

anyone know this?
TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not dict

code is

[reef shell]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py

```

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

[misty quail]

hmm...

anyone know this?

[final kettle]

ok ive got my format correct, just not sure how to add a second value

[slate swan]

Anyone knows how to make a bot grab a channel using its ID and then grabbing a message in that channel using the ID of the message?

To describe what I mean i made an example code that is not valid but can be understanded what the endgoal is below..

channel = await client.fetch_channel(channelID)
message = await channel.fetch_message(messageID)

or something?

[reef shell]

You can just use '\n' inside a string

[final kettle]

but that would still be 1 value

[reef shell]

You can't have multiple value keywords in 1 field

[final kettle]

ok

[reef shell]

2nd line should be client.fetch_message

Let me check

[slate swan]

wait i dont even have to fetch the channel?

[reef shell]

[slate swan]

rip

[misty quail]

anyone know TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not dict
this Error?

[reef shell]

Oh you need that actually

I'm wrong

[slate swan]

ohh its channel.fetch_meesage

interesting

wait so i actually did the code right?

without even realizing? 🤣

[misty quail]

ahh sorry

[lyric moat]

how i make a server owner only command?

@commands.check(is_server_owner)

does not work

[reef shell]

you need to define the check manually

[final kettle]

how do i edit a value in embed msg?

ive got the certain field set to a variable but i dont see any type of edit keyword

[slate swan]

its py @command.is_owner()

[lyric moat]

thats for bot owner

[reef shell]

You can't, but you can edit the message with new embed

[slate swan]

oh hes talking about guild owner?

[reef shell]

So you can technically edit the embed

[slate swan]

mbmb

[lyric moat]

yep

[slate swan]

Pretty sure it should be
ctx.guild.owner

if that's what ur looking for

[lyric moat]

but how tho

[slate swan]

??

wdym

[lyric moat]

like how i set it up

[slate swan]

oh

[reef shell]

@lyric moat https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=check#checks

[slate swan]

U put it in an if statement

[reef shell]

No lol

Bruh

[slate swan]

That's what i do..

example
ctx.author == ctx.guild.owner

it works for me

[reef shell]

You can add check

Decorator

like other checks

[slate swan]

ohh u talking about @client.check?

[reef shell]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=check#checks

[slate swan]

u could just answer my question but whatever

[reef shell]

Docs answer more precisely

[lyric moat]

its not telling me how i get guild owner only command

[slate swan]

its not a command..

[lyric moat]

so is it

@commands.check.(is_guild_owner())

@command.is_guild_owner()```

[slate swan]

@reef shell yeah but the thing is check() is a global thing

[lyric moat]

🤷🏾‍♂️ ?

[slate swan]

So it would check for the guild owner on every command used

[lyric moat]

is it

@command.is_guild_owner()

[slate swan]

we said checks mate

well corrrection, sherlock did

I dont do it that way cuz i like everything to be specific

But whatever works i guess.

[reef shell]

def owner_or_permissions(**perms):
    original = commands.has_permissions(**perms).predicate
    async def extended_check(ctx):
        if ctx.guild is None:
            return False
        return ctx.guild.owner_id == ctx.author.id or await original(ctx)
    return commands.check(extended_check)

Then add this deco. on top of your cmd func.
@commands.check(owner_or_permissions)

[slate swan]

@lyric moat U would add
@client.check above what he said if u didnt realize yet

[reef shell]

Idk if it is in the lib

[slate swan]

or whatever ur bot decorator is

wait huh, what's commands.check?

shouldnt it be the bot decorator or am i smoking?

[lyric moat]

@commands.check_is_guild_owner()

[reef shell]

Did you read the docs?

[slate swan]

me?

[reef shell]

Yes

[lyric moat]

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 102, in <module>

[reef shell]

There is an example

[slate swan]

y e s i n d e e d

that's why i asked him the question

about the "@commands.check"

[reef shell]

Oh lol

[slate swan]

see i knew it B)

[lyric moat]

what is B)

[slate swan]

emoticon

[lyric moat]

Bitch?

[reef shell]

Nothing, just using char. instead of emojis

[slate swan]

bruh...

[reef shell]

LMAAOOO

[slate swan]

dis man

@lyric moat yk u can curse in this server right?

u dont have to try and bypass

[lyric moat]

oh

[slate swan]

lmao

im gonna say the hard r to prove it

jkjk

Anyways, @lyric moat follow the exmaple above

which was in the doc if u didnt read it already

[lyric moat]

lol

[slate swan]

Oh guys i have a problem myself

@client.listen("on_reaction_add")
async def open_ticket(reaction, user):```

My on_reaction_add event only activates to messages reacted to AFTER the bot has started. So meaning messages if messages befoire is online are reacted to this function is renderred useless. 

How do i fix that?

This is espiaclly aannoying for what im trying to make here

like if my bot restarts the whole function doesnt work so i gotta recreate the support ticket embed for the reactions to work again

#help-falafel

im pretty sure its @client.event

[slate swan]

im using what's called a client.listener

its similar to client.event

it allows to still use commands and other stuff

only difference is the event name goes in the decorator not the async def

otherwise same thing

i dont remember this in the docs

[slate swan]

lol

well yes

[fallow horizon]

So, I'm trying to teach my friend how to make a discord bot and he's getting this error I've never seen

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: 'int' object is not subscriptable```

the code

@bot.command()
async def level(ctx):
    id = random.randint(128,73000000)
    level = requests.get(f'https://gdbrowser.com/api/level/{id}')
    result = level.json()
    if level.json == -1:
        return
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{result['id']}", color=0x00ffff)

    embed.add_field(name=result['name'], value=result["author"], inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name="Field2", value="hi2", inline=False)

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)
    await ctx.send(f"{result['id']}")

I'm trying to convert an int to a string(I've tried str() btw I'm not dumb) and It just shows this

[slate swan]

What type of variable is result?

actually nvm

oh i think i figured it out

[reef shell]

int

As the error says

[slate swan]

await ctx.send(f"{result['id']}")

ur trying to grab a value of of something that does not

You dont even need the ['id'] part since its only 1 value in the variable

to turn it into a string you can use str() str(result), but the whole variable is already a string so that's useless

But i dont know what your level = requests.get() returns to you, so I could be wrong. I'd need more information there

You can check this doing print(results) if you want to

@fallow horizon does this help?

#help-falafel

[fallow horizon]

but result has many values and we tried to do it normally too

[slate swan]

at what line?

[fallow horizon]

what?

[slate swan]

the error ofcourse

[fallow horizon]

line 8 of what I sent

hello?

[slate swan]

can you show what json does it return?

[fallow horizon]

yeah sure

[slate swan]

by print(result)

hm

[fallow horizon]

ummmm the values are from a rest api so we won't get the exact data

but it will be close

[slate swan]

send whatever you get by doing it

[fallow horizon]

yep

Add in the parent (main command) decorator invoke_without_command=True

[leaden prairie]

!d help

[stone palm]

I got that part
in this whole command I'm trying to access the database
would i have to add my query to each of the subcommands?

[slate swan]

Yes

[stone palm]

alright

[boreal ravine]

e = discord.Embed(title=data["content"], description=data["username"]).set_footer(icon_url=data["avatar_url"])
``` Like this

[drifting arrow]

Or you can do this:

embed = discord.Embed(title=data['content'])
embed.add_field(name="Your username", value=data['username'])
embed.set_footer(icon_url=data['avatar_url'])
mymsg = await ctx.send("This message will self destruct in 5 seconds.",embed=embed)
mymsg.delete(delay=5)

[slate swan]

can u add an image to that

[drifting arrow]

Yes

[drifting arrow]

Or you can do this:

import asyncio
embed = discord.Embed(title=data['content'])
embed.add_field(name="Your username", value=data['username'])
embed.set_footer(icon_url=data['avatar_url'])
mymsg = await ctx.send("This message will self destruct in 5 seconds.",embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("This message will self destruct in 4 seconds.", embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("This message will self destruct in 3 seconds.", embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("This message will self destruct in 2 seconds.", embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("This message will self destruct in 1 second", embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
mymsg.delete()

[slate swan]

no i jus need a description and title with an image

[slate nymph]

is danny there in the server?

[drifting arrow]

Or you can do this:

import asyncio
embed = discord.Embed(title=data['content'])
embed.add_field(name="Your username", value=data['username'])
embed.set_footer(icon_url=data['avatar_url'])
mymsg = await ctx.send("This message will self destruct in 5 seconds.",embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("Hahaha just kidding. I dont want you to have it.")
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("I'm just joshing with ya. Here it is.", embed=embed)
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("Oo! There it goes again! hahaha such a sucker.")
await asycnio.sleep(1)
await mymsg.edit("Na but for real tho. here.", embed=embed)

[slate swan]

i jus need a description and title with an image

[drifting arrow]

Like a big ass image? or an image in the corner?

or an image in the footer or title?

[slate swan]

big ass

[drifting arrow]

oh

Is it an uploaded image or the users image?

[slate swan]

wdym

[drifting arrow]

Are you uploading the image from the bots directory? or do you want to use a specific users image?

[slate swan]

uploaded

[drifting arrow]

Alright

You're gonna want to use something like file = discord.File("File location here", filename="whatever you want it to be called . ending"

[meager whale]

py
#this was in a cog

The below code bans player.

@commands.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def ban(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
await member.ban(reason=reason)
await ctx.send(f'User {member} has been
py

The error and the code

[drifting arrow]

for example. file = discord.File("C:/MyPictures/CuteCatePicture32.png", filename="Cate32.png")

[slate swan]

cant i jus use a link

[drifting arrow]

Yes you can use a link

[slate swan]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/343944376055103488/891932847429021726/Screenshot_20210927_114900.jpg liekt his

how

[meager whale]

Help mee

[drifting arrow]

So assuming you have the link, use embed.set_image(url="link")

[drifting arrow]

Hold the front door sir. 1 person at a time.

[meager whale]

Ok

[drifting arrow]

@meager whale you indented your function.

[meager whale]

Oh

What shall I do

[drifting arrow]

@commands.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def ban(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
     await member.ban(reason=reason)
     await ctx.send(f'User {member} has been banned.')
``` Your function needs to inline with the @commands part

[meager whale]

Ok

[drifting arrow]

Coding on a mobile makes it difficult

[meager whale]

Oh

Wish I had a PC

[drifting arrow]

I wish you had a PC as well 😦

[meager whale]

Yeah

[meager whale]

Can I use this code?

Like will it work

[drifting arrow]

I assume so. i just copied and pasted yours and fixed the indent

[meager whale]

Ok

Thanks

Let's see if it works

[drifting arrow]

Good luck. I need to BRB 2 mins

[meager whale]

@drifting arrow

[slate nymph]

dude u coding in mobile?

[slate swan]

LOL

[supple thorn]

@meager whale its supposed to be {}

[supple thorn]

Doesnt really matter

[slate swan]

man is alpha @slate nymph

[supple thorn]

Oh this wrong

[meager whale]

How

Send me the updated code

[supple thorn]

Man you gotta really magnify to see the difference between brackets and paranthesis

[boreal ravine]

@meager whale bro

[meager whale]

Yeah

[boreal ravine]

y u crossposting

[ocean leaf]

i am getting this error. please help me

[boreal ravine]

on other servers

[supple thorn]

Where

[slate swan]

then u send no code 🤡

[boreal ravine]

him

[boreal ravine]

Install the package?

[meager whale]

@boreal ravine I am doing because who helps me first

Sorry for that

[supple thorn]

Probably should be in #databases

Rather than here

[meager whale]

And

[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
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[supple thorn]

Cause thats pymongo

[boreal ravine]

simple python mistake

[meager whale]

Ok

@supple thorn I still have error

[boreal ravine]

Delete some spaces

[meager whale]

Where

@commands.command()
@commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def ban(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
await member.ban(reason=reason)
await ctx.send(f'User {member} has been banned.') 
Your function needs to inline with the @commands part

That's the new code

[ocean leaf]

no one comes there

i already asked like 5 times

[manic wing]

coding on mobile isnt awesome

[ocean leaf]

no one replied

[ocean leaf]

it is called "phone dev"

[meager whale]

Shut uo

[boreal ravine]

shut up

[supple thorn]

No one said it was awesome

[manic wing]

did you do pip install pymongo[srv]?

[ocean leaf]

is that an other package?

[supple thorn]

The only reason we do it because we literally dont have a pc or a laptop

[manic wing]

it is a required packages…at least try and read the error

[fathom hound]

is there any property that differentiates a 'normal' message;

• such as this one

[fathom hound]

from a 'reply message' like this one?

[manic wing]

.reference

!d discord.Message.reference

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reference

The message that this message references. This is only applicable to messages of type MessageType.pins_add, crossposted messages created by a followed channel integration, or message replies.

New in version 1.5.

[upbeat otter]

Guys, this line is from one function:

rand_num = random_number(20, 300)

i want to use the same numbers in another function, how do i do that?

[fathom hound]

i tried using the reference attribute but this is what it returns:
<MessageReference message_id=891477598398455818 channel_id=796229736103673901 guild_id=796229736103673896>
i can't figure how to know if it was a replied mesage

[manic wing]

1. pass numbers into other func through args/kwargs
2. global it
3. stick it in a class

[upbeat otter]

ohhh, thanku

[meager whale]

@commands.command() @commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True) async def ban(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None): await member.ban(reason=reason) await ctx.send(f'User {member} has been banned.')  Your function needs to inline with the @commands part

[ocean leaf]

it dosen't install

[meager whale]

Help meh

[ocean leaf]

i really like ppl who code apps/games in phone

[manic wing]

just do if message.reference - if there is no reference it returns nothing

[meager whale]

OK but it doesn't matters

I want help

[fathom hound]

ahh, i see, thanks a ton for the help

[manic wing]

try pip install dnspython

[slate nymph]

are you using rooted phone?

[meager whale]

Nope

[ocean leaf]

it kinda does, it is recomended to buy a separate keyboard and mouse

thumb hurts

[meager whale]

No it doesn't

[ocean leaf]

i'll try now

[boreal ravine]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14844687/invalid-character-in-identifier/33816904

U have an invisible character in your code

[meager whale]

Ok

[ocean leaf]

when i type a command in my shell, it dosen't perform it

it just freezes

[manic wing]

screenshot it, Ive had that before

what device are you on and what os

does it just pause as if its thinking

or does it just ignore the command

[ocean leaf]

i am using replit in pc

lemme refreash page and try first

yes it got fixed after refreshing

[manic wing]

okay cool

so pip install pymongo[srv]

[ocean leaf]

yes i am doing

done

[manic wing]

now your error should be gone

try and read the error in the future, it literally tells you the command to run to install it

[gloomy coral]

Doing this, but is still showing Unknown Emoji when I try to pass it in add_reaction(). Any help?

[vocal plover]

asyncio.TimeoutError?

[gloomy coral]

yea

[ocean leaf]

oh but how to fix?

[alpine locust]

hey can anyone pls help

[gloomy coral]

wait lemme import asyncio too

[upbeat otter]

idk, i never used mongo

[ocean leaf]

amyone does?

ig i shd ask in database if someone comes there

[alpine locust]

can anyone tell me what is wrong here ?

[vocal plover]

that means that for whatever reason your bot isnt getting an even that matches the check, which could mean your check logic is wrong

[gloomy coral]

capital c small c

[maiden fable]

mine?

[gloomy coral]

ok wait lemme check

[maiden fable]

nvm

[vocal plover]

Frost's

[ocean leaf]

c

[maiden fable]

Yea I thought so

[upbeat otter]

client.run is out out of the functions always

[ocean leaf]

u put client .run under the hello command

[alpine locust]

i have to all small

[vocal plover]

my tutorial is getting a ui upgrade soon™️

[ocean leaf]

until u say hi, the bot is not gonna run and unless the bot runs, it can't check if u sent hi 😂

[maiden fable]

gimme a good tutorial, I suck with dpy

[ocean leaf]

docs

[vocal plover]

A good tutorial you say :)
https://vcokltfre.dev

[alpine locust]

like this

[maiden fable]

retry_emoji = disnake.PartialEmoji.from_str(":readthedocs:")

Doing this, but is still showing Unknown Emoji when I try to pass it in add_reaction(). Any help?

(The emoji is in the standard form, that is, <:name:id>. It is just discord being weird)

[vocal plover]

afaik this is the most accurate/best practices tutorial out there for dpy

[maiden fable]

Yea

no sarcasm

[ocean leaf]

u put client.run under the function

[ocean leaf]

until u say hello, the bot is not gonna run and unless the bot runs, it can't check if u sent hello 😂

[maiden fable]

Hey Alec, mind helping me?

[fathom hound]

oh, another thing that completely slipped my mind lol
uhh, how do you know what message the reference message was replying to?

[vocal plover]

sure, what with?

[maiden fable]

^^^

[gloomy coral]

@vocal plover i fixed it 🙂

[dim cedar]

async def youtube(ctx, *, search):
  search = search
  
  html = urllib.request.urlopen('http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query='+ search)
    # print(html_content.read().decode())
  search_results = re.findall(r"watch\?v=(S.{11})", html.read().decode())
    
    # I will put just the first result, you can loop the response to show more results
  await ctx.send('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=' + search_results[0])```

[vocal plover]

!paste can you put the code in here so discord doesnt screw with the emoji formatting

[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.pythondiscord.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.

[dim cedar]

what is wrong with this?

[vocal plover]

The first thing is that youtube doesn't allow scraping its site, because it has an api

[maiden fable]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/upegacefos.yaml

[alpine locust]

can you show me how

[dim cedar]

u mean it is not possible>

[maiden fable]

Ignore the indent, it is just my copying is wrong

[alpine locust]

link is not opening

[maiden fable]

it is

[vocal plover]

odd, it works for me

[maiden fable]

(This is the first time I have opened your site)

[maiden fable]

Hmm, idrk bro

[vocal plover]

cloudflare what are you doing to my precious site lmao

[maiden fable]

😂

time to DDOS that site IP

[dim cedar]

would u help me?

[maiden fable]

with my potato super computer 😄

[vocal plover]

are you sure your bot has access to the emoji? from what I can tell the code is fine, meaning the only reason it wouldnt work is if the bot doesnt share the emoji's server

[maiden fable]

Lol it doesn't share the server 🤣

wait, so no other way

I thought bots are able to use those emojis with PartialEmoji

[vocal plover]

for a bot to use an emoji it needs to be a default emoji or share the server

[maiden fable]

Bruh

I thought PartialEmoji works without sharing the emoji

[boreal ravine]

Didn't we all know this 🤔

[maiden fable]

Not me, I am a beginner

[vocal plover]

partial emoji just means that the emoji is manually populated with data, rather than using data from the api

[maiden fable]

Ah

Time to add that emoji to my server then :c

[dim cedar]

help?

[vocal plover]

partials in general in dpy means that you give it a few details so you can perform api operations without actually fetching the object

[craggy cloak]

every time when i restart my bot i get this error?
When i fix this error by installing pip install discord.py[voice] ,next time i get again this error?

[maiden fable]

Ooh

[maiden fable]

env?

[craggy cloak]

I don't use an env file

[gloomy coral]

@vocal plover

I need help again

OR any1 else

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

So it sends the embed

[valid perch]

I mean, I cant read your mind. What do you need help with

[maiden fable]

Are you using venv?

[maiden fable]

Count me in too, with u

[gloomy coral]

But its not sending the victory embed, even when i guessed correct

[vocal plover]

Yeah, I'm happy to help generally but it's nice to know what I'm helping with before I agree to help :P

[acoustic ermine]

Is it possible to check if a invite to a server is the ctx.guild so if a member sends a discord server invite how can I check that the invite is for the same server and not another one

[boreal ravine]

It shouldn't do that tho

[dim cedar]

hi

[gloomy coral]

hi

[craggy cloak]

strange

[dim cedar]

how can i make a yt search command?

[boreal ravine]

are you using VSC?

[dim cedar]

anyone?

[valid perch]

Can you print in your check, what the emoji guessed is

[gloomy coral]

wait i think ik how to fix

[boreal ravine]

U sure you installed it?

Why did u delete the message

[dim cedar]

how can i make a yt search command?
anyone?

no one?

[craggy cloak]

I wanted to ping you because I thought you wouldn't read the chat anymore :D

[dim cedar]

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

[craggy cloak]

I can try again

[boreal ravine]

show ss when u installed

[dim cedar]

[boreal ravine]

Huh

That aint no error

Thats just a warning

[gloomy coral]

wait lemme tell u what im tryna do

[craggy cloak]

I upgrade that pip and reinstalled the discord.py[voice]

[boreal ravine]

is this replit?

[craggy cloak]

yes

[boreal ravine]

Ok then

• Repl.it uses an ephemeral file system.
• • This means any file you saved via your bot will be overwritten when you next launch.

[slate swan]

That's heroku

[boreal ravine]

That explains why u need to keep installing pynacl ^

[boreal ravine]

Same goes for replit

[slate swan]

No

[boreal ravine]

why else do you think its not saving?

[gloomy coral]

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

this is my code,
it basically randomly generates an imposter out of 4 emojis and we have to guess who by reacting

[craggy cloak]

How can i fix that problem than?

[slate swan]

When I used Repl.it and json to save data it saved and was still there on next launch

[gloomy coral]

dude he talking abt packages ig

[boreal ravine]

Not that type of data

I mean data using the console or the shell

[slate swan]

Oh

Then yeah

[lucid stream]

async def on_ready():
    await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(f"Watching over {len(client.users)}" ))
    print('we have logged in as akashgreninja'.format(client))
    ``` error-TypeError: __init__() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

yelp

[craggy cloak]

Is there any possibility that it can be fixed?

[boreal ravine]

is this where the error is?

[lucid stream]

yea

line 41 to be precise that is from await

[craggy cloak]

@boreal ravine ?

[boreal ravine]

I mean https://docs.replit.com/programming-ide/configuring-run-button

you could preinstall it using a .replit file

not sure how tho

[slate swan]

You could also just import os and at the top of your main.py file you can add os.system('pip install PyNaCl')

[boreal ravine]

that too

[lucid stream]

help

[slate swan]

?

[ocean leaf]

i sent it in #databases , now pls come there and help me

[lucid stream]

guys any idea?

[dim cedar]

now?

can anyone help me with my code?

[alpine locust]

what is the problem with this now

[lucid stream]

use '

'wfwffwffffwwf'

[alpine locust]

what

[dim cedar]

eh

why print?

[alpine locust]

?

[ocean leaf]

pls come in #databases

[lucid stream]

client.run('bot token')

[dim cedar]

await ctx.send (" ")
do not use print

[dim cedar]

yep

[alpine locust]

yes i did write that toke of bot it do not work

[ocean leaf]

1. import os
2. client.run('token')
3. install dotenv

[lucid stream]

try agin and send error

[slate swan]

Try ```py
watching = discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name=f'over {len(client.users)}')
await client.change_presence(activity=watching)

[dim cedar]

async def youtube(ctx, *, search):
  search = search
  
  html = urllib.request.urlopen('http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query='+ search)
    # print(html_content.read().decode())
  search_results = re.findall(r"watch\?v=(S.{11})", html.read().decode())
    
    # I will put just the first result, you can loop the response to show more results
  await ctx.send('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=' + search_results[0])```

what is the prob?

[gloomy coral]

Ill open a help channel

[slate swan]

error?

[lucid stream]

think it worked will try it

[dim cedar]

none

[dim cedar]

cmd dont works

[slate swan]

also , requests is blocking
use aiohttp instead

[slate swan]

do you have a error handler?

[dim cedar]

hmm

[slate swan]

!pypi python-dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

python-dotenv v0.19.0

Read key-value pairs from a .env file and set them as environment variables

[dim cedar]

oh

[slate swan]

install it

[dim cedar]

there is one

error

[slate swan]

it is probably not allowing to raise the error

[dim cedar]

see

[slate swan]

it means there were no results for the search

[boreal ravine]

It's a string

[dim cedar]

eh

[slate swan]

reset your token , and py pip install python-dotenv

[dim cedar]

how to fix that?

[boreal ravine]

Download os?

[dim cedar]

how to make a working yt search command?

[boreal ravine]

!os

[dim cedar]

how to make a working yt search command?

[slate swan]

your's is working

you just didnt provide a valid search argument

[dim cedar]

=youtube cradles

i gave this

[dim cedar]

in youtube it works

why not in my command?

[ocean leaf]

it has been 50 mins and no one came in #databases and helped me

i told ya

no one comes there to help

[stark bobcat]

hi

can i delete a category like this

await ctx.guild.category_exists.delete()```

[fringe breach]

How do I get the user on which ContextMenu is used?
I tried: ctx.target_member.id nothing happened

[dim cedar]

use

ctx.author.id

that will work

[fringe breach]

and how to get another user on which the right button is pressed ?

How to get the author I know

[dim cedar]

explain

what u want

to do

[dim cedar]

u can make a author check

by making a list of authors u know

then

[dim cedar]

eh

[fringe breach]

get the user on which the button was clicked

[drifting arrow]

@fringe breach if it's run in a command using ctx, use ctx.author

[fringe breach]

no!

[drifting arrow]

😦

[fringe breach]

I clicked on another user

And I got myself

[drifting arrow]

Well author is whoever triggered the command

[fringe breach]

And I need to get another user who was clicked on

[drifting arrow]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fringe breach]

To get a user to respond to messages
ContextMenuType.MESSAGE ctx.target_message.content

this is a click on the message

And I click on the user this :
ContextMenuType.USER it would be more logical to use ctx.target_user.mention

but it doesn't work

[slate swan]

hey i need help with discord.py

Import "discord_buttons" could not be resolved
🤔

[gloomy coral]

#help-cheese

[soft radish]

How can i set a channel to a welcome channel when doing a cmd?

[spring flax]

database

insert the channel id

[lament mesa]

no

[spring flax]

!d discord.TextChannel.id

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.id

The channel ID.

[lament mesa]

guild.category_exists isnt a thing

[maiden fable]

Yea

It's CategoryChannel

!d discord.CategoryChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.CategoryChannel.delete

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

Deletes the channel.

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

[tropic briar]

I want to ban someone if there's bad word by the user using my discord python bot I wonder How
and also delete the message

[soft radish]

like if i do >greet at a channel it'll be set as the welcome channel

[heavy radish]

Why does the embeds not allow server emoji's??

[maiden fable]

U should do

class Help(commands.Cog):
    . . . . 

[stone palm]

thats what i did```py
class Help(commands.Cog):
def init(self, bot):
self.bot = bot

@commands.group(invoke_without_command=True)
async def help(self, ctx):

[lament mesa]

subclass commands.HelpCommand to make a help command

[stone palm]

the code works just fine on another bot tho

[spring flax]

it'll still work, but subclassing commands.HelpCommand is better

[lament mesa]

[stone palm]

any examples? i dont understand

[lament mesa]

!customhelp

[spring flax]

[stone palm]

im using subcommands tho

isnt that okay?

[lament mesa]

that is ok but suclassing commands.HelpCommand will make stuff easier

[stone palm]

i was planning to make a fully customized embed for the help command

[gloomy coral]

projectpath = await request.form['prefix']

#web-development

[hoary gust]

i am getting a error

[little ether]

the problem is in the check

        def check(reaction, user):
            return reaction.message.id==msg.id and user == ctx.author and str(reaction.emoji) in emojis

emojis is a dict, if you do in emojis it only checks the keys, not the values, to check the values you'd do emojis.values()

[gloomy coral]

ok

i see

@little ether again same thing

[little ether]

what's your current code?

[gloomy coral]

ok wait
