aww

[heavy folio]

what does message_object mean

[tropic briar]

@client.event
async def on_message(msg):
    for word in Filter:
        if word in msg.content:
            await msg.delete()

    await client.process_commands(msg)

[cloud dawn]

the message object

[tropic briar]

is this alrigtht?

[heavy folio]

u should use for loop

[tropic briar]

oh wait I am mad

[maiden fable]

The message. Don't save only the content but the whole message which u get via on_message so that u can also get the user info

[heavy folio]

huh

[tropic briar]

editted

[slate swan]

bruh..

[slate swan]

does it work now

[tropic briar]

lemme try

[slate swan]

import discord

from discord.ext import commands
from discord import utils
import datetime

prefix = "b."

client =commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix, help_command=None, pass_context=True, owner_id=503035525456855051)
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"Connected to {client.user}")
    await client.change_presence(activity = discord.Activity(discord.ActivityTye.listening, name =f"to {prefix} in {str(len(client.guilds))} servers")

@client.command()
async def help(ctx):
    embed=discord.Embed(title="Embed Bot", color=discord.Colour.random())
    embed.add_field(name="\uD83E\uDDCA `"+prefix+"help`", value="Shows all commands' info", inline=False)
    img = ctx.message.author.avatar_url
    embed.set_thumbnail(url=img)

    embed.timestamp =datetime.datetime.utcnow()
    embed.set_footer(text="Requested by {}".format(ctx.author))
    await ctx.reply(embed=embed)```

Still error :<

[maiden fable]

Ah, u r missing a closing bracket in change_presence()

[tropic briar]

So I want to Ban the user if the word is in the message

[cloud dawn]

thats a tad extreme but ok

[tropic briar]

but How

I mean no command is working for now

[slate swan]

😮

[tropic briar]

Not even ban and kick

[maiden fable]

Haha happens

[cloud dawn]

word_list = ['yes', 'no']
if any(word in message.content for word in word_list):
    await message.author.ban()

[tropic briar]

this looks easy

[slate swan]

Because of this bracket, I wasted 6 hours of mine and some people of this server

[tropic briar]

but it won't work unless I fix my errors

[maiden fable]

Aw, haha it surely can be a pain. I suggest u use an IDE something like VSCode

[slate swan]

🥔 PC

[maiden fable]

I run VSCode on a 1.7 GHz processor and 4 GB RAM

[grand oracle]

Which Is Better? ᗷIT Ⓑⓘⓣ

[maiden fable]

?

[grand oracle]

edit*

[maiden fable]

Your wish

I just told u the logic

[cloud dawn]

@tropic briaredited for multiple words

[placid skiff]

You have to get the message of the user you want to ban (the easiest way is with the message reference method)

[maiden fable]

@slate swan you can always DM me in case u need help setting up an IDE (:

show your init

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.change_presence

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

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

[maiden fable]

They are kwargs

Soo, lemme tell what to do

[slate swan]

I didnt made init

async def on_ready():
    print(f"Connected to {client.user}")
    await client.change_presence(activity = discord.Activity(discord.ActivityType.listening, name =f"to {prefix} in {str(len(client.guilds))} servers"))```

[maiden fable]

Weird

Ah

!d discord.Activity

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Activity

class discord.Activity(**kwargs)```
Represents an activity in Discord.

This could be an activity such as streaming, playing, listening or watching.

For memory optimisation purposes, some activities are offered in slimmed down versions:

• [`Game`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Game "discord.Game")

• [`Streaming`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Streaming "discord.Streaming")

[maiden fable]

Those are kwargs

[slate swan]

oooooooooo

[maiden fable]

type=discord.ActivityType.listening

[slate swan]

So listeneing?

[cloud dawn]

but why are you also converting a string to a string lol

[slate swan]

Mhmmmmm 😄

len gives string?

[grand oracle]

no need to str()

[cloud dawn]

f strings auto format to str

[maiden fable]

Yea that ^^^

[slate swan]

[grand oracle]

its in f string it does it automatically

ll*

[slate swan]

I removed it

[cloud dawn]

moves from python to compiled code sweat

[cloud dawn]

indentioooooon

[tropic briar]

ohh

[maiden fable]

Imagine spoonfeeding

[cloud dawn]

and brackets on decorator

[maiden fable]

Bruh.....?

[grand oracle]

so just saying

E

[cloud dawn]

Best is just to throw the bot away😂

[maiden fable]

What do u even wanna do

[maiden fable]

.....?

[tropic briar]

@client.on_message

    word_list = ['yes', 'no']
    if any(word in message.content for word in word_list):
        await message.author.ban()

[slate swan]

Well what to do about the activity btw

[maiden fable]

The deco is all wrong

[maiden fable]

Didn't I tell u?

[maiden fable]

@slate swan

[tropic briar]

wth How do I make it work

[slate swan]

I didnt see that srry

lel

[maiden fable]

It's fine

[cloud dawn]

Also i hate to make life difficult but don't change presence inside on_ready

[maiden fable]

Indeed

[slate swan]

why?

[cloud dawn]

Because it causes some weird behavior of the bot.

[slate swan]

Actually I want my bot to refresh its guild number in activity as soon as possible but I dont want it to get rate limited

[cloud dawn]

Then i recommend using an async function that will wait until ready.

[slate swan]

async def wait_until_ready ??

[cloud dawn]

Just refresh once 10 minutes in a task

[slate swan]

IDK why repl it rate limited my bot

last day

[cloud dawn]

since you share your ip adress meaning other people can rate limit you.

[slate swan]

?

[cloud dawn]

thats why it sucks

[grand oracle]

i like ur funny words, magic man

[slate swan]

other people?

[maiden fable]

....?

[cloud dawn]

So you got an adress assigned like a router, but repl.it has the same router for multiple users instead of their own network.

[slate swan]

oooooo

So any other free platform other than heroku?

[grand oracle]

if only they get another

[cloud dawn]

Nothing in life is free

[slate swan]

[grand oracle]

i'll change that

[cloud dawn]

I'll be there

[slate swan]

Also how can I unblock my github

[maiden fable]

except hate

[maiden fable]

?

[grand oracle]

then say asus without the a

try this ```py

Why is this not working

Now it even has admin permission

[maiden fable]

Wait

Dyno role is above bot's

[tropic briar]

My godness

I will kill Dyno today

[placid skiff]

Your bot role should be above the user role that is banned

Question
The guild.unban command works with the Username#Discriminator right?
If i pass only the username in the command and then convert that username string into a User object and pass username and discriminator in guild.ban it should work right?

[maiden fable]

Uhh, nope

[tropic briar]

gg

[maiden fable]

guild.unban(discord.Object(id=))

!d discord.Object

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Object

class discord.Object(id)```
Represents a generic Discord object.

The purpose of this class is to allow you to create ‘miniature’ versions of data classes if you want to pass in just an ID. Most functions that take in a specific data class with an ID can also take in this class as a substitute instead. Note that even though this is the case, not all objects (if any) actually inherit from this class.

There are also some cases where some websocket events are received in [strange order](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/21) and when such events happened you would receive this class rather than the actual data class. These cases are extremely rare.

x == y Checks if two objects are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the object’s hash.

[maiden fable]

It requires a Discord Object

[placid skiff]

Understand

So to make it work

I have to retrieve the id of the user

Then convert it again into a discord object

[tropic briar]

!pypi discord-anti-spam Now I will be using this

[unkempt canyon]

Discord-Anti-Spam v0.9.1

An easy to use package for anti-spam features in discord.py.

[maiden fable]

Yes

[maiden fable]

!on-message

Bruh

[placid skiff]

Btw i m using nextcord fork so i'll check documentation before coding lel

[maiden fable]

!customcooldown @tropic briar

[unkempt canyon]

Cooldowns in discord.py

Cooldowns can be used in discord.py to rate-limit. In this example, we're using it in an on_message.

from discord.ext import commands

message_cooldown = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(1.0, 60.0, commands.BucketType.user)

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    bucket = message_cooldown.get_bucket(message)
    retry_after = bucket.update_rate_limit()
    if retry_after:
        await message.channel.send(f"Slow down! Try again in {retry_after} seconds.")
    else:
        await message.channel.send("Not ratelimited!")

from_cooldown takes the amount of update_rate_limit()s needed to trigger the cooldown, the time in which the cooldown is triggered, and a BucketType.

[maiden fable]

Lol

[placid skiff]

The problem is if the bot can convert a string to a user object even if both doesn t share servers

But there is a solution to everything, it will be more annoying, but it will work anyway 😂

[tropic briar]

When I send a message

and the bot wasn't stopping

[placid skiff]

Cuz he is responding to it own message

[tropic briar]

That's the problem

So

[tropic briar]

this won't work

[reef shell]

do you have an on_message event?

[grand oracle]

if msg.author.id == client.id:
  return

[placid skiff]

@client.event()
async def on_message(msg):
     if msg.author == client.user:
           return
     #your code

[tropic briar]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
        if message.author == client.user:
            return
        bucket = message_cooldown.get_bucket(message)
        retry_after = bucket.update_rate_limit()
        if retry_after:
            await message.channel.send(f"Slow down! Try again in {retry_after} seconds.")
        else:
            await message.channel.send("Not ratelimited!")

[grand oracle]

bot command ideasss

[spring flax]

but why a on_message event

[grand oracle]

omg pesron whose msg got pined aa

[tropic briar]

because spam will check when someone sends a message

I don't see this link on replit.com

[spring flax]

huh

[spring flax]

oh you are doing message spam, thought command cooldown

[tropic briar]

Where can I get that link

[tropic briar]

yea

[placid skiff]

Well, the better way is to set the slowmode on the channel but this works too lel

[tropic briar]

But i am unable to host it using replit

I cannot get that link

that I see in the video

[placid skiff]

?

[tropic briar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5ptk-Klfcw

I am watching this video to host my bot

and I need that link as shown in the video

this is my screen

[placid skiff]

You re trying to hosting it by creating a flask and then continously sending HTPPS requests from another service

[valid niche]

oh no

replit

[grand oracle]

create flask app

[tropic briar]

huh?

[valid niche]

the lowest you can go, replit is the WORST thing out there for hosting

[tropic briar]

lemme try

[placid skiff]

Lol that database made me cry

[grand oracle]

create a html file???

[valid niche]

oh and with replit you want to keep resetting your token every 2 seconds

[grand oracle]

os.environ

[valid niche]

because all your replits are public unless you have a paid account, but if you have a paid account you should just get a VPS

[placid skiff]

They added enviroment variables

[tropic briar]

I want to do this in free

[valid niche]

sadly hosting costs money

[tropic briar]

where is flask apps

[valid niche]

so there is no real free option

[tropic briar]

There are free also

[valid niche]

anything free has massive issues

it's """free"""

[placid skiff]

Flask is a python package

[grand oracle]

create py file in your repo

[tropic briar]

already created one

[tropic briar]

repo ?

or repl?

[placid skiff]

Technically in the video he should show you how

[placid skiff]

Some year ago i tried to hosting a telegram bot for free

It made me even sick of php 😂 😂

[valid niche]

@tropic briar read this

[grand oracle]

self host

[tropic briar]

so

There is no way to host it for free?

[valid niche]

no

self hosting technically also costs money

[grand oracle]

there is 1

[valid niche]

tho most say it's free

[tropic briar]

Then the use of making a bot is non-sense?

[grand oracle]

i mean yeah

[tropic briar]

which

[valid niche]

self hosting is considered free by most, tho you have to have hardware to run it already and need to pay for electricity and such

[placid skiff]

It has use if you re learning, but u can run the bot in your machine too

[placid skiff]

Well, just buy a Raspberry if so 😂

[tropic briar]

I will not be doing that all day

Can I use Heroku ?

[valid niche]

read the same post

[grand oracle]

self hosting

so uh, you have a old laptop or phone, you install py in it and run ur bot

Then never turn that device off.

[valid niche]

heroku is just as bad as replit

just in its own way

[tropic briar]

which is better heroku or repl

atleast the bot can come online

[valid niche]

both are equally bad

[grand oracle]

it is not meant for bots, anything else good.

[valid niche]

there is no good in replit or heroku for a bot

[tropic briar]

So what if I still do it

What will happen then

[valid niche]

you'll run into tons of issues, annoyances, bad hosting, and you'll get tons of flak from all of the community

[grand oracle]

ull die or smthing idk

[tropic briar]

I am ready for those

Now should I?

[valid niche]

i wont help you

[tropic briar]

ok ok

[valid niche]

i'd say get a cheap VPS, those things only cost like a few dollars a month

[tropic briar]

anyways bye

[valid niche]

a discord bot does not need much, like if a raspberry pi can run it almost anything can run it, except replit servers, because they are just bad in every thinkable way

[supple thorn]

How about free will

[placid skiff]

I m searching for a dedicated, i need both bot host and website host

[valid niche]

i run a website with a few terrabytes of traffic a month, 2 discord bots, a reddit bot and sometimes some random project for only 6 euros a month

[placid skiff]

They will hunt you if you pee in public

[valid niche]

on a VPS not dedicated even

[grand oracle]

replit is good to learn stuff and to not install an ide

[soft lake]

Hello Guys

[cloud dawn]

Whats the deal with an ide

[placid skiff]

Seems good, can you share me the VPS in dm? I m barely a novice with hosting

[soft lake]

where can I get a good curse for Discord bots with python

[valid niche]

almost anything works tbh. I use netcup, which has one downside: they only have a datacenter in germany

[soft lake]

course*

[valid niche]

so all servers are located there

[valid niche]

https://vcokltfre.dev/

[grand oracle]

glowstik, Code with swastik

on yt

[valid niche]

almost all youtube tutorials are just nah

[soft lake]

Thanks
Good luck for all of you

[grand oracle]

i mean they have new forks to code on

[placid skiff]

Well it is not like you can t found something, but to be honest most of them will teach you only the basic, it has use if you re starting with discord bot
Learn to use the documentation is the better way

[placid skiff]

Well, i live in Italy so it is not a big problem for me

[valid niche]

netcup.eu

i use their 6 euros plan

[grand oracle]

to get started use a course

[placid skiff]

I ll check it, thanks

[soft lake]

THX

[grand oracle]

cries in rupees

[soft lake]

can someone explane
async and await

[grand oracle]

are you new to python?

[placid skiff]

Lol

[grand oracle]

hmmm

[soft lake]

Yes

[grand oracle]

so first things first

[soft lake]

I know the basics

[grand oracle]

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=python+programming+with+mosh

oh

ok uhh

[soft lake]

wrong link ?

[grand oracle]

thats uh for learning py, imma get async/await

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5Bo1Je9EmE

[soft lake]

Does it the same in Discord ?

[grand oracle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RbJYN7SoRs

[grand oracle]

If you learn async await, you can use it for discord too

[soft lake]

Thank you so muck for helping me

[grand oracle]

async await basically allows you to run stuff in the background

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=async+await+python
More results can be found here

[soft lake]

Without running the code ?

[grand oracle]

after running the code
s

so.. lets say you are getting input ig, and you make a func that does stuff to it
so while that function is doing stuff we can also do stuff

so we can make it go run in the background

[soft lake]

it's like multi tasking right ?

[grand oracle]

yep

[placid skiff]

Yes

For example, image you have a tempban command in your bot

[grand oracle]

but use the course to implement this in python :)

[cloud dawn]

you'd also need an async scheduler though

[placid skiff]

If you don t use async/await your bot will sleep until the member you tempbanned is unbanned

[grand oracle]

it is in the vid i think

(omg i feel so good helping)

[soft lake]

oh
I get it
Now I know the reason why we use async a lot in Discord.py

[placid skiff]

Btw, it will return an error if you do lol

[soft lake]

Yes you're

[grand oracle]

aight imma go

[soft lake]

Good luck body

[grand oracle]

thx

[soft lake]

[grand oracle]

and uh buddy* (but if you meant a body...)

[kind trellis]

Is it possible to reference embed.Colour outside of the embed class?

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.Colour

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Colour

class discord.Colour(value)```
Represents a Discord role colour. This class is similar to a (red, green, blue) [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.9)").

There is an alias for this called Color...

[placid skiff]

I remembered something weird that happened to me some days ago

I had those lines here:

print(f"{ctx.author.name} sent {ctx.message.content}\nNo command found for {[cnt[0] for cnt in ctx.message.content.split(' ')" )

Instead of gave me the command invoked it gave me some random letter in the string, i had to declare a list before and assign it to ctx.message.content.split

[kind trellis]

That doesn't help me

[cloud dawn]

Well you asked for a reference, more info you did not provide.

[slate swan]

he did tho

[placid skiff]

Embed.colour reference to discord.Colour

[vale narwhal]

why "on_message" event making my bot crashed? It didn't send any error too

[kind trellis]

I still need it to change the embed, but I want the color to change base on an arg

[vale narwhal]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('@itsHarbinger#5005'):
        e = await message.channel.send("itsHarbinger Is AFK: :CD_Inasleep:")
        await asyncio.sleep(15)
        await e.delete()

the code

i put it on my bot and it crashed my bot for no reason

it make my bot not respoding to another command

rather than on_message event

[cloud dawn]

@bot.listen()
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author.bot:
        return

    if message.content.startswith('@itsHarbinger#5005'):
        return await message.channel.send("itsHarbinger Is AFK: :CD_Inasleep:", delete_after=15)

    await bot.process_commands(message)

[vale narwhal]

alright lemme try thx

@cloud dawn Still the same

It make my whole bot not responding

only the on_messgae itself

[cloud dawn]

https://discordapp.com/channels/267624335836053506/343944376055103488/794484840078376976

[spring flax]

either use @bot.listen() as decorater, or add await bot.process_commands(message) to the bottom of @bot.event @vale narwhal

[vale narwhal]

wha

[cloud dawn]

I just shorten his current code

[spring flax]

oh wait wrong ping my bad

[cloud dawn]

I edited my msg @vale narwhal

[slate swan]

Hey, buddies
I wanna self deploy @unkempt canyon bot.
But I don't have a pc. Me using termux to run simple codes but when It comes to the requirements of python bot. Termux failed to provide resources.
Can somebody help me with it
To deploy Python bot to heroku.
As heroku cli works pretty well.

[vale narwhal]

I changed it to bot.listen() and it worked tysm!

[cloud dawn]

credits go to diabolical

[vale narwhal]

[sacred folio]

Hello,

Im trying to add a few emojis on an embed that I send to the channel so I can later react to them. But I cant really find how to go about it, what i wish there was is a command much like embed.add_field but for emojis. Any insights? :)

[ember sorrel]

you mean react with emojis to the embed sent?

[sacred folio]

Yes, essentially make it so that the bot pre-reacts on the embed, so users can react on it once its displayed

[brisk plover]

is there any way to use the random library, but not repeat the same?
lets say i have
[1, 2, 3]
i use random.random and it gives 1, if i do it again it has to either say 2 or 3, cant say 1 again

[placid skiff]

No one have an answer to this? Lol

[cloud dawn]

delete it from the list

[ember sorrel]

embed_messae = await ctx.send(embed=your_embed) # store the message
await embed_message.add_reaction("emoji here (for example: 🚀)") # add a reaction to the emed you just sent

[brisk plover]

uhh, can u tell me how to do that please?

[placid skiff]

Assume you have a list:

import random

list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
choice = random.choice(list)
list.remove(choice)

[ember sorrel]

x = [1,2,3]
random_number = random.choice(x)
x.remove(random_number)

[brisk plover]

oh that simple, thanks alot!

[ember sorrel]

np

[cloud dawn]

!e ```py
import random

numbers = [1, 2, 3]

for x in range(6):
try:
choice = random.choice(numbers)
except(IndexError):
break
print(choice)
numbers.remove(choice)

[unkempt canyon]

@cloud dawn :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | 2
002 | 3
003 | 1

[sacred folio]

Do you copy the actual emoji or just the name for it

[placid skiff]

I ask again with not much hope 😂

[ember sorrel]

actual emoji

message.add_reaction("🚀")

[placid skiff]

Someone has a dict of discord reaction? Lol

[cloud dawn]

You can also just use random.shuffle()

[spring flax]

what?

[spring flax]

yeah also its a coro so needs await

[placid skiff]

Something like:
[reaction_name: reaction_id, reaction_name1: reaction_id1, ...]

[spring flax]

What for?

You want the format of an emoji?

[placid skiff]

Because i found really annoying using the id to send emojis xD

[sacred folio]

Thank you! If i want to then listen to reactors, i read something about collectors so im going to look into that first. Could i achieve this by adding '.then' on the ctx.send(embed=embed).then like that and then processing and even adding everything in there?

[placid skiff]

I m a lazy person i know

Snorlax is better than me

[brisk plover]

can i make the embed image a gif?

[ember sorrel]

that doesn't work in python unfortunately

[spring flax]

!d discord.Embed.set_image

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_image

set_image(*, url)```
Sets the image for the embed content.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Changed in version 1.4: Passing [`Empty`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed.Empty "discord.Embed.Empty") removes the image.

[brisk plover]

ty

[ember sorrel]

simply do the next thing in the next line, instead of using .then()

[sacred folio]

Ah okay

[slate swan]

Hello

[sacred folio]

Yeah, my async abilities are from Js so i assumed something like next was needed. Thanks for clarifying

[slate swan]

Hello

[ember sorrel]

np

[slate swan]

.d embed

How to do this

!d help

[unkempt canyon]

help

help([object])```
Invoke the built-in help system. (This function is intended for interactive use.) If no argument is given, the interactive help system starts on the interpreter console. If the argument is a string, then the string is looked up as the name of a module, function, class, method, keyword, or documentation topic, and a help page is printed on the console. If the argument is any other kind of object, a help page on the object is generated.

Note that if a slash(/) appears in the parameter list of a function when invoking [`help()`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/functions.html#help "help"), it means that the parameters prior to the slash are positional-only. For more info, see [the FAQ entry on positional-only parameters](https://docs.python.org/3.10/faq/programming.html#faq-positional-only-arguments).

This function is added to the built-in namespace by the [`site`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/site.html#module-site "site: Module responsible for site-specific configuration.") module.

Similar names: pdbcommand.help, django.help

[spring flax]

use ! as it is @unkempt canyon's prefix

[slate swan]

And you can test out in #bot-commands

[slate swan]

Wait

How to make a embed help!

[spring flax]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

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.

[slate swan]

What I have to do?

[spring flax]

do to do that?

[slate swan]

give me full command

[sacred folio]

@ember sorrel if my intention is to listen to the reactions, and im using client.command() to wait for the initial command to prompt the embed, do i need to setup a bot.event to listen for reactions?

[slate swan]

Like if I say !help

[spring flax]

im not going to give you the command, but you can use this for a reference to making an embed

[slate swan]

Okay

[hardy onyx]

[ember sorrel]

you can do it either way, but it'll be better to wait for a reaction from the user after the command is invoked, after the bot has reacted to the embed, you can use wait_for()

!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**...

[sacred folio]

This will definitely solve it, thank you!

[ember sorrel]

np :)

[slate swan]

Import "DiscordUtils" could not be resolved 🤔 can anyone help?

install the library...

[slate swan]

I did

still saying the same thing

how do you install it?

[slate swan]

pip install DiscordUtils

have you installed it in the same version of python you are using rn?

wdym

[brisk plover]

just to confirm, if i delete something from a list, and i restart the bot, the list is reset ya?

[slate swan]

Yes

[floral jacinth]

hello guys, quick question, how do i check when a member entered in the server?

[ember sorrel]

!d discord.on_member_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_join

discord.on_member_join(member)``````py

discord.on_member_remove(member)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") leaves or joins a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This requires [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") to be enabled.

[floral jacinth]

not member_join

the lifetime inside the server

[ember sorrel]

oh that

!d discord.Member.joined_at

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.joined\_at

An aware datetime object that specifies the date and time in UTC that the member joined the guild. If the member left and rejoined the guild, this will be the latest date. In certain cases, this can be None.

[floral jacinth]

thx

[ember sorrel]

np

[hardy onyx]

hm

[ember sorrel]

use a for loop and use wait_for() every time it iterates

isn't that possible?

I don't know much about slash commands so I'm just confiming,

ah well sadly I don't know then, I haven't really touched d.py ever since slash commands were added

[heavy radish]

My BOTs not detecting server Emoji's??

[boreal ravine]

Meaning?

[heavy radish]

Like

one sec

[heavy radish]

Why is it like that?

[boreal ravine]

Is the emoji in the server?

[heavy radish]

Yes

[boreal ravine]

Did u use the ID?

[heavy radish]

umm

No, Emoji's have IDs??

[boreal ravine]

yes

[heavy radish]

How do I use it and how do i get it

[boreal ravine]

add a backslash before an emoji then send it*

[heavy radish]

\🥜

[rigid island]

Can u explain a bit??

[heavy radish]

Doesnt work

[boreal ravine]

Like this

[heavy radish]

\🗣️

[boreal ravine]

Use a custom emoji..

[heavy radish]

!brainmon

[boreal ravine]

those are unicode emoji's they dont change lol

[heavy radish]

Hm

Do i just paste it like that?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[heavy radish]

Ahh

Thank You!!

this one

[heavy radish]

Nice

[surreal sierra]

Hey does anyone know why this doesn't work? Before when I only had users[str(user.id)]["Wallet"] += bet * 1000 it worked.
The problem is that it doesn't add the numbers to the json file, for example the it doesnt add bet to GEarned in the json file. Same to all those 5

[crystal cliff]

@Bot.command()
async def Bot_Info(ctx:commands.Context):
await ctx.send({f"**{random.choice(Bot_Info)} im trying to make a random choice bot info command, but im not sure of the code 🤔 is it right or?

[boreal ravine]

@Bot.command()
async def Bot_Info(ctx):
    await ctx.send(f"**{random.choice(Bot_Info)}**")
``` you can just do this

[boreal ravine]

Also I see a syntax error there

[crystal cliff]

trying that now. Thanks it works 👍

@raven peak
async def Quote(ctx):
Quote = get_quote()
await ctx.send(Quote) this wont send a quote, 🤔

[jade jolt]

show code

of get_quote()

[crystal cliff]

def get_quote():
response = requests.get("https://zenquotes.io/api/random")
json_data = json.loads(response.text)
quote = json_data[0]['q'] + " -" + json_data [0]['a']
return(quote)

[jade jolt]

return doesnt use () iirc

just do return quote

[hasty iron]

both work

[jade jolt]

ok then his quote is empty

[crystal cliff]

no reply

[hasty iron]

can you print Quote

[crystal cliff]

oh, it worked. 👍 Is it poss, to bold print the quote?

[slate swan]

How to let my bot react on his own message and when i react to 1️⃣ it says like "text"?

[hasty iron]

yes, just use it like you normally do it

text

markdown works for bots

[boreal ravine]

If someone invites a user how do we know that they invited them? like for example

@kayle#0000 joined by @Modmail#0000 

any clues

[crystal cliff]

it wont print the quote, in ""bold""

@raven peak
async def Hey(ctx:commands.Context):
await ctx.send(f"{random.choice(Replying_Words)}
{ctx.message.author.mention} 👋") it wont mention the user, whats wrong here?

[jade jolt]

ctx.author.mention

[slate swan]

Store every invite the server has in a db, when someone joins compare each invite count, when one has more than it had previously get the owner of the invite and that's pretty much it

There's no other way to do it

[boreal ravine]

hm

[boreal ravine]

why the extra message?

[drifting arrow]

\o/

[half briar]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: ClientException: ffmpeg was not found.

How to slove

[drifting arrow]

Well the method would be:
1 - When an invite is created, store who created it and the invite information.
2 - When a user joins, check to see if they were invited. If so, check what link they used.
3 - Credit the person \o/

[slate swan]

@client.event

[crystal cliff]

I’d like it to say Hey random_words/reply then mention the user.

[drifting arrow]

ffmpeg was not found. Could be because ffmpeg is not a thing. Link code

[half briar]

sc = FFmpegPCMAudio("audio.mp3")
voi = vc.play(sc)
voi.start

@drifting arrow

[boreal ravine]

I meant the extra message

you already used context lol

[drifting arrow]

what import is that coming from @half briar ?

[half briar]

@drifting arrow what

[crystal cliff]

What message?

[boreal ravine]

{ctx.message.author.mention} 👋") it wont mention the user, whats wrong here?

see it now?

[drifting arrow]

try putting discord infront of FFmpegPCMAudio

[slate swan]

Help me please

[half briar]

Oo

[crystal cliff]

No sorry 👀

[half briar]

from discord import FFmpegPCMAudio``` @drifting arrow

[boreal ravine]

dude tf???

[drifting arrow]

sc = discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("audio.mp3")
    voi = vc.play(sc)
    voi.start

[crystal cliff]

tf?

[boreal ravine]

events dont need parentheses

[drifting arrow]

Tf = Total Fragination Nation

[boreal ravine]

bro..

[half briar]

@drifting arrow not work

):

[slate swan]

I removed it but same error

[crystal cliff]

No clue, lol

[slate swan]

That's basically exactly what I just said

[drifting arrow]

I know. But he'd probs miss some parts.

[boreal ravine]

You already had ctx and you did ctx.message.author.mention. I'm saying why did u add the extra message in that when you only needed ctx.author.mention?

[slate swan]

Understandable ig

[half briar]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: ClientException: ffmpeg was not found.@drifting arrow

[crystal cliff]

Now I understand 👍🏼

[slate swan]

Need Help

[jade jolt]

is ffmpeg on PATH or in your bots cwd

[drifting arrow]

idk tbh. I dont use the voice stuff since nobody here is willing to slide near the TOS stuff

[hasty iron]

ah yes, massunban when passing a single member_id

[maiden fable]

lmao

[hasty iron]

why arent you using guild.unban

why are you trying to call the raw api

and why with requests?

whats the point?

[latent ermine]

dosent it make it faster

[hasty iron]

???

faster?

lol?

anyways just use Guild.unban

[latent ermine]

ok

[placid skiff]

The API has a guild.bans which return the lists of all banned users, use that

[spring flax]

don't.

[latent ermine]

how come?

[fallow mauve]

im wanting to make a command where an admin can say <giveroll [@user] [role ID] and it gives the specified user the role, how would i do that?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[fallow mauve]

so how do i target a user?

[slate swan]

Pass a member: discord.Member into command arguments, or get the user with ID or utils or something

[fallow mauve]

command arguments?

pretend idk what that is

[boreal ravine]

its an arg

[fallow mauve]

ok

[slate swan]

Like async def addrole(ctx, member: discord.Member, role: discord.Role)

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.ext.commands.RoleConverter for role ids I think

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.RoleConverter

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

All lookups are via the local guild. If in a DM context, the converter raises [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") exception.

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

[slate swan]

It makes a huge API call I think

[fallow mauve]

what comes after this?

@slate swan

[slate swan]

use the name kwarg

[fallow mauve]

?

[slate swan]

I think

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.command

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

[fallow mauve]

im new to python and have never used kwarg before, can u explain that?

[slate swan]

!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

[slate swan]

not just 'addrole', but name='addrole'

[little ether]

!arg-kwarg

[unkempt canyon]

*args and **kwargs

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

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

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

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

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

[slate swan]

quick question: py embed.set_footer(text="Requested by {}".format(ctx.author))
How do I bold the requester's name?

no, @raven peak doesn't take no positional argument

I genuinely don't care that I pinged somebody....

[slate swan]

Help

Requested by *{}*?

[fallow mauve]

or within the brackets?

[slate swan]

no

nah it just print * in the footer

what does google say?

[slate swan]

not found

[void mortar]

how i can add a hyperlink in embed.add_fields

[slate swan]

you cant there

[void mortar]

oh..

[fallow mauve]

i still dont know what to put after this someone pls help

[slate swan]

then I don't think you can

[slate swan]

await member.add_roles(role)

you mean that?

and use
@bot.command(name='addrole')

you can also leave it empty

indeed

but since we don't know how you want your command to work....

[hasty iron]

i think name is not a keyword only arg

[slate swan]

idk, the doc didn't say anything

[hasty iron]

yes its not

[hasty iron]

there is no *, before it

[hasty iron]

why ctx=None

[fallow mauve]

was that dumb?

[hasty iron]

i dont know, you tell me

[slate swan]

oh lol

ctx is never gonna be None

[fallow mauve]

ok

[slate swan]

but it shouldn't throw an error because of that, right?

[hasty iron]

because of what

[slate swan]

because of =None

[hasty iron]

it will

!e ```py
def foo(a=1, b): pass

[unkempt canyon]

@hasty iron :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 |   File "<string>", line 1
002 |     def foo(a=1, b): pass
003 |                   ^
004 | SyntaxError: non-default argument follows default argument

[fallow mauve]

yeah, i removed it and theres no error now

[slate swan]

makes sense

[fallow mauve]

so

[hasty iron]

it wont throw an error, if they're keyword arguments though

[hasty iron]

!e ```py
def foo(*, a=1, b): pass

[unkempt canyon]

@hasty iron :warning: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

[No output]

[slate swan]

indeed no addroll command

only addrole

[fallow mauve]

thx it works now

and now that i understand how that works i can now add the removerole command

[valid galleon]

so i was working on a bot on my other pc, and it worked fine(except for a couple errors here and there), but when i tried to continue working on the same bot on my current pc, it gives me this error. it wasnt on my other pc:
ImportError: cannot import name 'PartialMessageable' from 'discord.channel'

[hasty iron]

do you have some kind of third party lib

[valid galleon]

idts. let me check

[fallow mauve]

how do i make my command require certain perms to use again? i forgor

[fallow mauve]

thx

[valid galleon]

@hasty iron yeah, i think i had a third party lib on this PC :kek

[hasty iron]

that could be the issue

[valid galleon]

yeah, i made a typo. edited the message now

[fallow mauve]

thx

[hasty iron]

discord.Guild.create_custom_emoji is a method

not a converter

[mortal thistle]

can someone tell me to escape from an error in aiosqlite?

[hasty iron]

try-except it?

[valid galleon]

now i get this:
ImportError: cannot import name 'commands' from 'discord.ext' (unknown location)

[hasty iron]

use the correct converter?

discord.Emoji or discord.PartialEmoji

[hasty iron]

reinstall discord.py

[valid galleon]

alright

[fallow mauve]

im wanting to use embeds for my help menu, how do i do that?

[slate swan]

remove self

from the args

[hasty iron]

you need an instance of discord.Guild not the class itself

[valid galleon]

this is why yu dont copy paste code you find on the internet lol

[hasty iron]

and image takes in bytes not Emoji or PartialEmoji

[valid galleon]

consider moving your commands to cogs dont put them in the main file

[slate swan]

how specific

[valid galleon]

sus

uhh

[hasty iron]

well i dont think stackoverflow answers would do such as a mistake to not use a Guild object

[waxen python]

well you dont use self in a non-cog

[valid galleon]

is your code in the main file or in a cog?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.create_custom_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_custom\_emoji

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

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

There is currently a limit of 50 static and animated emojis respectively per guild, unless the guild has the `MORE_EMOJI` feature which extends the limit to 200.

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

[slate swan]

wait I thought you already removed discord.Guild from your code

that could be the only reason, because this function can't even raise a TypeError otherwise lmao

[crystal cliff]

I can help, dm me pls

[steep estuary]

which database is best in discord.py?

[fading harness]

hello

[reef shell]

why dm

lol

[fading harness]

i want to know that do the message of the bot in dm is sent successfully or not

[maiden fable]

Postgres

[magic walrus]

how do i ensure that once the word "Pious" has been replied in the bots dm's, it does not continue to respond even if "Pious" is stated a second time

[steep estuary]

postgres is a website? :/

[steep estuary]

?

[fading harness]

i use repl.it forr a yrs but i feeel great

[steep estuary]

or a library

[reef shell]

you will get HTTPException if it fails

[steep estuary]

?? wdym?

[maiden fable]

U can add an if statement and a variable and check for its value

[steep estuary]

as a data base?

but ppls can see ur code

[maiden fable]

....?

[steep estuary]

in repl

[crystal cliff]

Why not, it’s prob a quieter chat, lol

[reef shell]

lmao

[magic walrus]

example? havent used python in many months

[steep estuary]

is postgres popular ?

[fading harness]

uh... i want to know that if theres httpexception so we'll stop the program

using if-else

[reef shell]

use isinstance()

[steep estuary]

i just want to store my variable safe that's why i want database

[fading harness]

can you send a example code

[crystal cliff]

Anybody got a on_member join code, that works, & a server_info code, pls.

[reef shell]

async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandInvokeError):

        if isinstance(error.original, discord.HTTPException):```

you need to attach a file

as your command is coded in that way

[sacred folio]

Hello again, im trying to update an embed after sending it to the channel. What im trying to achieve is to add the names of everyone reacting to the embed. I read something about ctx.edit that uses discord.richembed but i cant seem to get it to work. Any thoughts?

[hasty iron]

yes

[steep estuary]

ok

[hasty iron]

https://www.postgresql.org/

[steep estuary]

kk

[slate swan]

Hello

invite = ctx.channel.create_invite()

Will this code return a permanent invite?

[steep estuary]

can i connect postgreSQL with heroku?

[slate swan]

Help pls

[maiden fable]

No

[slate swan]

Then how to generate a permanent one?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.TextChannel.create_invite

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.create\_invite

await create_invite(*, reason=None, max_age=0, max_uses=0, temporary=False, unique=True, target_type=None, target_user=None, target_application_id=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates an instant invite from a text or voice channel.

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

[maiden fable]

Wait, nvm

It does, yea

[slate swan]

@maiden fable ok thanks

:)

[zealous berry]

help. this is my code for reaction role command, so when i write ?react3 then the message and the reaction pops out. But when i react to it, it doesn't give me the role. How to fix?

@client.command()
async def react3(ctx):
  guild = ctx.guild
  role = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="artist")
  message = await ctx.send("React to me!")
  while True:
    await message.add_reaction(':white_check_mark:')
    reaction = await ctx.wait_for_reaction(emoji=':white_check_mark:', message=message)
    await ctx.add_roles(reaction.author, role)

[fierce light]

    open(help.html)```
Error: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'Help' is not defined
On entering help it is supposed to open help.html (its in the same folder as the py file)
How do I do it?

Thanks

[mental kraken]

Fixed
That cursed annotation was placed there in order to fix a linter error
We have changed a couple of things and annotations are now okay

[slate swan]

instead of waiting maybe use a on_raw_reaction_add and on_raw_reaction_remove ecent

[zealous berry]

okie!

[fierce light]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/763139359372476466.png?size=64

[zealous berry]

still doesn't work...

[slate swan]

what did you do in the event?

[zealous berry]

i didn't use event...

[high flame]

replit is not a database

[high flame]

no its a db lol

[sacred folio]

Replit has a db connected to it, so you can store stuff

But its not complex at all, it only allows for a single table

[high flame]

but it's bad

[sacred folio]

It is, but if youre a beginner i think its adequate

[high flame]

it's just json

[high flame]

yeah

it's recommended

[slate swan]

Even actual json is better

[high flame]

mm

[steep estuary]

can i use sqlite ?

[high flame]

yeah sure but use aiosqlite3

[zealous berry]

how to fix this ```py
reaction = await ctx.message.wait_for_reaction('✅')

it says message has no attribute wait_for_reaction and idk what to do

[high flame]

because it isn't

wait_for_reaction is not a thing in discord.py

[zealous berry]

oh

how to do it then

[high flame]

Bot.wait_for("reaction_add")

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

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

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

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

[zealous berry]

oh alright lemme read that

[stoic sparrow]

@unkempt canyon

[high flame]

open the link in the title, there's some examples

[sacred folio]

Im trying to update a single field in an embed thats been sent to the channel is there a way to achieve it easily?

[high flame]

yeah

[zealous berry]

okay

[sacred folio]

When i try and use embed_message.edit it collapses the old one and only title shows

[high flame]

save the embed in a variable, then edit the embed and edit the message

[sacred folio]

I save it as a variable as i send it to ctx

[high flame]

edit the embed like this: ```py
embed = discord.Embed(title="hello")
embed.title = "hey"

[sacred folio]

Hmm

[high flame]

the embed now is discord.Embed(title="hey")

[sacred folio]

If i have lets say 3 fields.. How would you specify to edit the first one

[high flame]

embed.fields[0] maybe, wait i'll do some tests

yeah it's right

!d discord.Embed.fields

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.fields

property fields: List[_EmbedFieldProxy]```
Returns a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of `EmbedProxy` denoting the field contents.

See [`add_field()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed.add_field "discord.Embed.add_field") for possible values you can access.

If the attribute has no value then [`Empty`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed.Empty "discord.Embed.Empty") is returned.

[sacred folio]

So embed_message.field[0] =.. Can i still give it two parameters or should i send in a string containing both

[high flame]

embed_message.fields[0]

you can do like embed_message.fields[0].name = "something"

embed_message.fields[0].value = ...
embed_message.fields[0].inline = ...

[fading harness]

yes, it is

[slate swan]

no

[fading harness]

there is database built in replit

[high flame]

that can't be called a database thought

[slate swan]

yes but replit it self is not a databade

[fading harness]

yes.

[sacred folio]

Im trying but it gives me invalid syntax. Do i need to import something to use. Fields

[high flame]

it's just a key: value

[fading harness]

ikr

[steep estuary]

how i can store data like user levels and xp ?

[high flame]

screenshot what you did

[high flame]

a real database

use postgres maybe

[steep estuary]

but there syntax are difficult

json cannot do this?

[high flame]

SQL? it's not that hard

you can learn it in one day or two

[slate swan]

it can but a databse would be better and secure

[steep estuary]

hmm

[visual island]

sql is case insensitive

[boreal ravine]

json is not built for levels or xp

[steep estuary]

i just want to confirm cuz i don't want to delete the code if it will not work in heroku

should i use sqlite or postgres?

[slate swan]

its upto you rlly

[high flame]

you can do it with json lol but not recommended

[steep estuary]

will heroku change a json variables ?

[visual island]

sqlite is not for high traffic purposes, postgres is fine tho

[boreal ravine]

yes

[high flame]

hmm, if you use heroku then json isn't the best choice (will never be)

[solemn grove]

@bot.group(invoke_without_command=True)
async def help(ctx):

It's only triggering on help
How can I make it to trigger on Help, HELP etx.

[boreal ravine]

what

[steep estuary]

i think i should learn postgres so it will be good for future use too

[sacred folio]

await embed_message.fields[0].value = "test" 

I get that the message object has no attribute fields

[visual island]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.case_insensitive

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.case\_insensitive

Whether the commands should be case insensitive. Defaults to False. This attribute does not carry over to groups. You must set it to every group if you require group commands to be case insensitive as well.

[slate swan]

case_insensitive = True

[high flame]

oops it's embed_message.embeds[0].fields[0] and without await

[hollow mortar]

hey i have question do i can use this

role = ## your role id 
await ctx.channel.set_permissions(role, send_messages= False)```

does this work if i do it ?

[high flame]

no

[hollow mortar]

why ?

[high flame]

role is just and int in your case

you need a discord.Role

[hollow mortar]

so what should i do role = discord.role( my role id ? )

[high flame]

do get_role(<role_id>) and save in a variable

[sacred folio]

Hmm, when i first declare the embed, i then save it as a variable like this

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

I dont get anymore errors when i set up the edit like you wrote, however nothing happens when I react on the embed in discord

[high flame]

and put the variable in set_permissions

[high flame]

bruh too many awaits

[hollow mortar]

so role = get_role(my role id )

and then this

[high flame]

just ```py
embed_message = await ctx.send(embed = embed)
embed = embed_message.embeds[0]
embed.value = "something"
await embed_message.edit(embed = embed)

[hollow mortar]

await ctx.channel.set_permissions(role, send_messages= False)

[sacred folio]

My bad. My head is wobbley, there is only 1 await hahah

[boreal ravine]

embeds aren't even coro's

[hollow mortar]

this doesnt work

role = get_role(891031599708266629)```

[boreal ravine]

get_role is not defined

[hollow mortar]

yes

idk how to fix it

[boreal ravine]

idk is not defined

[high flame]

im leaving the chat

[sacred folio]

Thanks for the help! Ill get it soon enough

[boreal ravine]

im_leaving is missing one required positional argument. (self)

[sacred folio]

Its just some trial and error to be done

[high flame]

it's Bot.get_role

[high flame]

i edited my message, scroll up

[high flame]

to this

[sacred folio]

Hmm, something is not allowing it to update

[hollow mortar]

nope wont work

bot not defined

[high flame]

Bot as you need an instance of commands.Bot and not pasting the code in your bot ;-;

[hollow mortar]

wehat ?

look its not defined it show yellow

line that means not defined

[sacred folio]

I found the issue, dont know how to get around it. I cant just do fields[0].value ="test" because fields[0] is a tuple

Does anyone know how to replace a tuple in an embed?

[compact field]

guys how can i send embed in dropdowns ?

when user click on dropdown options send embed instead message

[slate swan]

are you using discord.py master branch?

[compact field]

no i use dislash

why ?

[slate swan]

isnt embed= embed_object working?

[compact field]

no thats not working like this

[hasty iron]

if fields[0] returns a tuple, why are you trying to do fields[0].value = ...

[sacred folio]

@hasty iron i didnt know, i got help earlier but i just found out its a tuple. I tried converting it to a list and replacing the value, then converting it back and setting the embedded tuple to the new one. Didnt work

[hasty iron]

whats your code?

[sacred folio]

Can i tag you in half an hour. Gotta get home whilst the rain is slowing down a bit

[hasty iron]

ok

!d discord.Client.users

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.users

property users: List[discord.user.User]```
Returns a list of all the users the bot can see.

[solemn grove]

?

[hasty iron]

you can also do {user for guild in Bot.guilds for user in guild.members}

it would return a set of Member though

yeah

thats old

!d discord.Client.guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.guilds

property guilds: List[discord.guild.Guild]```
The guilds that the connected client is a member of.

[hasty iron]

if you're going to copy code atleast copy something not outdated

do you have intents

add intents=discord.Intents.all() to your bot's constructor and enable them in your dev page

[dapper cobalt]

What is commands.?

[meager whale]

Ok

[boreal ravine]

!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.

[meager whale]

I just removed the dot

After commands

[dapper cobalt]

ExtensionNotFound means that the extension you are trying to load is not in the given directory.

[boreal ravine]

huh

[placid skiff]

I know that, but read the code and tell me why :_:

[dapper cobalt]

That does not fix it. And don't use client and bot together.

[meager whale]

Ok

[boreal ravine]

he did?

[maiden fable]

Yo, anyone here knows how to scrape a traceback to get the module which isn't imported?

NameError

I can check if the module is in the list of modules

How to get the name

Wait

!d NameError

[unkempt canyon]

NameError

exception NameError```
Raised when a local or global name is not found. This applies only to unqualified names. The associated value is an error message that includes the name that could not be found.

The `name` attribute can be set using a keyword-only argument to the constructor. When set it represent the name of the variable that was attempted to be accessed.

Changed in version 3.10: Added the `name` attribute.

[maiden fable]

I hope it has an attribute to get the name which errored

[dapper cobalt]

name

In v3.10 tho.

[maiden fable]

Yea, but added in 3.10

sad :c

[dapper cobalt]

Still gonna use 3.8.6.

[maiden fable]

I use 3.9, sadly

[frigid dune]

How can I check if a user have a specific role?
