i fixed the previous issue

but now im getting this one

nvm got it

[quasi pawn]

what a cheap host you can recommend?

[sacred folio]

I cant find a single example of anyone using on_reaction_remove on the internet or Stack overflow. Does anyone have a working example of using wait_for to get the user which removed a reaction?

[stiff nexus]

[timber crescent]

what is the sender of a message reffered as?

message.author?

[sacred folio]

Yeah, message.author

@client.event
async def on_voice_state_update(member,before,after):
  if member.bot:
    return
  if before.channel and after.channel:
    if after.self_video == True:
      return
    else:
      channel1 = discord.utils.get(member.guild.channels, id = 885099421006725150)
      await channel1.send("Please enable your cam")
      await asyncio.sleep(10)
      await member.move_to(channel=None)

I am trying to achieve this :- If someone doesn't turn on cam in VC then bot should send message if they turn on cam after the bot sends the message then the bot shouldn't disconnect it, if the user doesn't turn on cam then the bot should someone that user

But the issue in my code is that you can only turn on your cam when you enter a VC (by default the cam is off) so even if the user turns on their cam after entering the VC the bot is disconnecting them

How do you fix this?
Ping on reply

[slate swan]

wait a abit and if they open their cam the dont move em

or disconnect them

@sick talon

[echo idol]

Can You Ping Member By msg.channel.send() ? And How

[slate swan]

couple ways

get the member then then mention em like this ```py
member = bot.get_member(their id)
await msg.channel.send(member.mention)

or just straight up use their id(sometimes it doesnt ping em) ```py
await msf.channel.send("<@their id>")

[sick talon]

yeah I know that
about I tried it didn't work

[echo idol]

<> Has Special Meaning?

[slate swan]

well yeah thats how pings work

<@id> turns into a ping

[echo idol]

Ah.. Thx

[plucky goblet]

can we add buttons with discord.py yet ?

@rustic onyx download a ffmpeg.exe and keep it in your folder

[rustic onyx]

I'll do so and let u know if everything works 🙂

Thanks

guys is thhere a way to make an embed footer's name and value in the same line?

because im sure that inline =True wont do it

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @void ravine!

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

[warm flame]

i mean fields

i have a tasks.loop in a cog and before_loop for it but it sends an error saying "contestloop isnt defined", thats the loops name btw, what do i do?

[kindred epoch]

footer? footer only has name

[warm flame]

fields

How do we check permissions for a command

[slate swan]

permissions of the user or the bot?

for the user:

!d discord.ext.commands.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_permissions

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

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

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

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

!d os.chdir

[unkempt canyon]

os.chdir

os.chdir(path)```
Change the current working directory to *path*.

This function can support [specifying a file descriptor](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/os.html#path-fd). The descriptor must refer to an opened directory, not an open file.

This function can raise [`OSError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#OSError "OSError") and subclasses such as [`FileNotFoundError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#FileNotFoundError "FileNotFoundError"), [`PermissionError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#PermissionError "PermissionError"), and [`NotADirectoryError`](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/exceptions.html#NotADirectoryError "NotADirectoryError").

Raises an [auditing event](https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/sys.html#auditing) `os.chdir` with argument `path`.

New in version 3.3: Added support for specifying *path* as a file descriptor on some platforms.

idk, im waiting for help about my thing, i have no idea how to fix urs

[broken dirge]

Do you guys know how to make bot send message the moment it turns on?

[slate swan]

did you import os?

[fallow mauve]

yes

[slate swan]

use on_ready event

[broken dirge]

Ok! Let me try!

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.process\_commands

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

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

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

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

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

[broken dirge]

can someone help me with this function

@ client.event async def on_ready(): client.get_channel("xxxxxxxxxxxx) await channel.send("I'm on!")

[slate swan]

save the channel into a variable

and we can't do anything with the id, you don't have to hide it

also, sending stuff in on_ready is scuffed

[broken dirge]

So what would you recommend to use

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_until_ready

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_until\_ready

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

Waits until the client’s internal cache is all ready.

[fallow mauve]

sry, i had to go for a bit

[slate swan]

ye that

[broken dirge]

I want it to send message once it's on

[slate swan]

and this code would send it to you every day multiple times

bruhkitty

[broken dirge]

or every time I turn it on?

[slate swan]

well not multiple times a day, but it's randomly gonna reconnect

[broken dirge]

gotcha

[fallow mauve]

that didnt help

[broken dirge]

@quaint axle.event
async def on_ready():
client.get_channel("893524345576644679")
await wait_until_ready()

and how do I print message>

[slate swan]

print()

😑

[fallow mauve]

actually i just forgot to make 'Token' a variable

[broken dirge]

or In my case await ctx.send('Hello')

but then I need to define ctx

[steep estuary]

how to check if a user's role is higher than bot's role ?

and that creates error

why did you remove that

await channel.send("hello")```

[broken dirge]

in on_ready
await channel.send("hello")

[slate swan]

oh shit

it's not supposed to be a string

await client.wait_until_ready()
channel = client.get_channel(893524345576644679)
await channel.send("hello")```

that's on me

[broken dirge]

Thank you, Meh!

Works just fine 🙂

[slate swan]

[broken dirge]

Is there a way to send a message once it's going off?

[slate swan]

I don't know nothing about that, maybe somebody else

[dapper cobalt]

How would that even be possible?

[slate swan]

but like based on logic

[broken dirge]

You would probably need another bot

[slate swan]

if the bot's offline, it can't send a message until it's online again

[broken dirge]

Yeah

[dapper cobalt]

You can make another bot and check when your main bot's status changes to discord.Status.offline.

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change:

• nickname

• roles

• pending...

[slate swan]

which basically would be "I'm online" instead of "Disconnected"

[dapper cobalt]

if before.status == "online" and after.status == "offline":
  channel = client.get_channel(..)
  await channel.send("Bot has gone offline!")

[fallow mauve]

has someone here ever successfully made an economy bot using python before?

if so pls DM me i need help bad

[slate swan]

there's no other reason for a bot to disconnect, other than internet issues

if it's working fine

then where does the other bot run?

[dapper cobalt]

I did.

[fallow mauve]

can u help me?

[dapper cobalt]

But not sure if it's the type of economy you would expect, I made it differently.

[slate swan]

this channel is made for that

[dapper cobalt]

More like dank memer's.

[fallow mauve]

?

ive never used dank memer so can u explain that more?

[broken dirge]

Logically you could do a bot that spots if member is on/off

[slate swan]

yes

[dapper cobalt]

That's what I said.

[fallow mauve]

@dapper cobalt can u DM me?

[dapper cobalt]

Why?

[fallow mauve]

bcs i need help w economy bot

[broken dirge]

cool

[fallow mauve]

and no one else has said anything

[fallow mauve]

why? im failing miserably

[broken dirge]

What is it's purpose?

[fallow mauve]

i havent made the bot yet

the code fell apart

bcs i dont understand it at all

[broken dirge]

What would you like it to do?

[fallow mauve]

do you know what an economy bot is?

[slate swan]

you haven't written it, have u

[steep estuary]

how to check if a user's role is higher than bot's role?

chill

[slate swan]

We will help you to progress with your issues, we won't guide you on how to make it.

[fallow mauve]

but i dont know what issues i have bcs i dont understand it

[slate swan]

you don't understand what

[fallow mauve]

how the stupid economy system in python works

[slate swan]

that's not a thing in python....

[jade jolt]

if its stupid why do you want it

[slate swan]

that's a thing you write in python

[fallow mauve]

ghsadjkfl

thats what i mean

[slate swan]

you store all of the data in a database

[dapper cobalt]

Do you know how to use a database?

[slate swan]

then get it once someone uses a command

[fallow mauve]

json file

[slate swan]

no

[jade jolt]

no

[slate swan]

lol

[unreal silo]

bro literally go do school

[slate swan]

Papa Nik chill

[fallow mauve]

bcs im smart i finished all my school work for today, k?

ooo

[slate swan]

thank you

:)

[jade jolt]

:p

[waxen granite]

how do i get the message.content if the message is an embed?

[jade jolt]

eplain

[slate swan]

message.embeds

do you want to get the title or the description?

Will return the embed objects

In a list

[waxen granite]

whatever there is in the embed

[slate swan]

use [0] tho

So you can get the first element and get it's description attribute

[slate swan]

yep, that would work
message.embeds[0]

[tropic briar]

How can I make custom rule showing commands for different servers

[slate swan]

you'd have to use two variables

[waxen granite]

here is my code

        if message.channel == 808402161305911326:
            embeds = message.embeds
            for embed in embeds:
                embed1 = discord.Embed(description = embed.to_dict(), timestamp = datetime.datetime.utcnow())
                await sac.send(embed = embed1)```

[slate swan]

save message.embeds[0].title or message.embeds[0].description

[slate swan]

yeah that's better lol

[slate swan]

Then you can simply get the attributes of an embed object

!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]

All of them are shown here if you need a specific one

[waxen granite]

my code doesnt work

[tropic briar]

Anyone

[slate swan]

messages barely have two embeds

[jade jolt]

mine do

[noble fable]

Hey! Searching for any good library for discord bot coding! Discord.py and other forks aren’t that useful, since there’s no updates and new features. Ping me, if there’s one

[jade jolt]

disthon ;)

[dapper cobalt]

!pypi disnake

[unkempt canyon]

disnake v2.1.2

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[noble fable]

I’ve check it

[noble fable]

It’s fork of discord.py, but it’s with slashes… probably I’ll use it

[slate swan]

That's not even on pypi

[jade jolt]

ok?

[wispy spade]

Grounds are still a bit shaky on what to go to instead of Discord.py. Some you may want to look at include:

• Nextcord, Pycord, Disnake are probably the more well known forks, which I believe you want to avoid, although the latter contains most of what you want.
• There's also Hikari which is basically it's own thing. Another one I've been following is Krema, which seems decent.
• ||and i'll also take the opportunity to plug my own, Pycordia||

[quick scaffold]

Hey is there a way for a bot to publish messages in an announcements channel?

[noble fable]

I’ll check Hikari, it seems to be the thing I’m searching for

[waxen granite]

is there a way to check what channels my bot can see in a guild?

[lament mesa]

!d discord.Guild.channels

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.channels

property channels: List[GuildChannel]```
A list of channels that belongs to this guild.

[waxen granite]

this property returns the channels only what the bot has perm view_channels = true?

[lament mesa]

yeah iirc

[fallow mauve]

how do i test if a command is on cooldown?

[waxen granite]

well itsends all the channels in a guild

[lament mesa]

hmm

[waxen granite]

commands.cooldown

[lament mesa]

maybe you can filter the channels and check if the bot has permissions to view it

[fallow mauve]

@Bot.command()
@commands.cooldown(rate=1, per=5)
async def test(ctx=None):
  await ctx.send('test')

  if commands.cooldown():
    await ctx.send('Command is on cooldown, please wait.')

?

[waxen granite]

if commands.cooldown(): await ctx.send('Command is on cooldown, please wait.') this thing you have to do it in on_command_error

seperate event

[slate swan]

anyone else having this issue with pip

WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProtocolError('Connection aborted.', PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied'))': /simple/pip/

[fallow mauve]

idk how that works :/

[waxen granite]

@bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error):

[mellow merlin]

How hard is it to make a bot to remove a role simultaneously with another?

For example, to make members automatically lose a role when they lose the server booster role?

[fallow mauve]

thaat works but it sends the thing right after i use the command even if it isnt on cooldown

[waxen granite]

remove the line from the command

make a botevent for on_command_error

[plucky goblet]

how to get the username of who reacted the message

[waxen granite]

and use isinstance for commands.CommandOnCooldown

[fallow mauve]

thx

[waxen granite]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.on_command_error

[manic wing]

anyone know how to force put a user on commands.cooldown

[steep estuary]

how to check if a user react ?

[fallow mauve]

how do i make it so it only happens if the command is on cooldown? if i try to use a command that doesnt exist it says its on cooldown

[lament mesa]

!d discord.Message.reactions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reactions

Reactions to a message. Reactions can be either custom emoji or standard unicode emoji.

[steep estuary]

okkkkk

[waxen granite]

what ?

[waxen granite]

show code

[plucky goblet]

how to return the username of the person who reacted to the message

[waxen granite]

bot event for on_reaction_add

[lament mesa]

In the event or...?

[plucky goblet]

was meant to use this
reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add')
but looks like using the event gives me more easier options

[waxen granite]

        category = guild.categories
        for cat in category:
            await ctx.send(cat.name)
            for channel in cat.channels:
                if self.bot.has_permissions(view_channel = True):```
error `'Bot' object has no attribute 'has_permissions' `

[manic wing]

it stops the code asynchronously until after the wait_for. If you do print('hi') after reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add') it will only print 'hi' after someone has reacted

[manic wing]

do you mean if ctx.me.has_permissions?

[waxen granite]

maybe

[plucky goblet]

and how to return their usernames ?

[lament mesa]

user.name

[plucky goblet]

user.name ?

[lament mesa]

yeah

[plucky goblet]

oh
kk

[manic wing]

!d discord.Guild.me

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.me

property me: discord.member.Member```
Similar to [`Client.user`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.user "discord.Client.user") except an instance of [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member"). This is essentially used to get the member version of yourself.

[warm flame]

guys how can i make a command requirement optional?

[plucky goblet]

also it stops after 1 person reacted, should i put it in a while loop ?

[warm flame]

like what if i want the member to be optional

and still be called if variable isnt set

[manic wing]

member:discord.Member=None

[warm flame]

okk

[lament mesa]

type hint the parameter with typing.Opional and give it a default value

[manic wing]

if not member: member = ctx.author

[manic wing]

can do

depends your python version

[lament mesa]

do you want it to recieve reactions forever?

[manic wing]

but if its 3.8+

you can use a walrus

[waxen granite]

'Member' object has no attribute 'has_permissions'

[plucky goblet]

yes

[lament mesa]

then put it in a while loop

[upbeat otter]

guys, why doesnt this work?

@client.command()
async def customrole(ctx, rolename, hexcode, member: discord.Member=None):
  if member is None:
    member = ctx.message.author
    await ctx.guild.create_role(name=rolename, color=discord.Color(hexcode), permissions=discord.Permissions(permissions=None))
    role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name=rolename)
    await member.add_roles(role)
    await ctx.send("Successful")

[plucky goblet]

since i didn't add timeout

k

[manic wing]

reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add')
while True:
   #code
    if x:
      break

  reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add')```

or you can use a walrus

[dim cedar]

anyone help me?

[manic wing]

with?

[manic wing]

a) errors b) what are you trying to do c) the indenting looks weird

[dim cedar]

importing a specifiq version of google trans in repl.it

i did pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0

[waxen granite]

@manic wing'Member' object has no attribute 'has_permissions'

[manic wing]

googletrans is shit

[waxen granite]

error for guild.me

[manic wing]

do you mean guild_permissions

!d discord.Member.guild_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.guild\_permissions

property guild_permissions: discord.permissions.Permissions```
Returns the member’s guild permissions.

This only takes into consideration the guild permissions and not most of the implied permissions or any of the channel permission overwrites. For 100% accurate permission calculation, please use [`abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for "discord.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for").

This does take into consideration guild ownership and the administrator implication.

[manic wing]

ctx.me.guild_permissions

[upbeat otter]

no error, when i use try and except statements, it says, it expected int type instead of str

[waxen granite]

i am just trying to get all the channels in aguild which the bot can see

[dim cedar]

eh

[waxen granite]

or have perm view-channels as True

[upbeat otter]

@commands.has_permission(permission here)

[dim cedar]

thn how can i make a translator?

[manic wing]

do hexcode: int

[upbeat otter]

ah okay sure

[waxen granite]

not command

the bot perm

[upbeat otter]

@commands.bot_has_permissions then

or read the docs otherwise

[waxen granite]

it is not a command oof

[manic wing]

🤦‍♂️

[manic wing]

!d discord.TextChannel.permissions_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.permissions\_for

Handles permission resolution for the [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role").

This function takes into consideration the following cases...

[upbeat otter]

😂

[manic wing]

so if ctx.channel.permissions_for(ctx.me, 'read_messages')

[dim cedar]

can anyone help me!!

[upbeat otter]

but hexcode has letters in it

it will be an error

[manic wing]

hexcode is an int with base 16

its called hex

so you would do

!e print(int('ffff', 16))

[unkempt canyon]

@manic wing :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

65535

[upbeat otter]

ah okay

[manic wing]

int base 16

standard is base 10

binary base 2

[upbeat otter]

oh

thanx

[dim cedar]

why no one help me?

[upbeat otter]

@manic wing no error and no role assigning

[upbeat otter]

ask 🥲

[plucky goblet]

it's not working properly, it stop after one or two, and it makes (it's supposed to make a ticket channel) 3 times

[hasty iron]

typehint hexcode as discord.Color and pass it in directly like color=hexcode

[dim cedar]

want help in importing a specifiq version of google trans in repl.it
i did pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0
but everytime the repl refreshes the version goes back to 2.4.0

[upbeat otter]

oh, thankuu

[upbeat otter]

i see, that never happened with me tho....

maybe update it using pip?

[dim cedar]

heh

i do

[upbeat otter]

so?

[dim cedar]

but it always does the same after a refresh

[lament mesa]

send the code

[upbeat otter]

same happens with me for a library extension too

[dim cedar]

i want a solution

anyone?

[upbeat otter]

sorry, but idk

@hasty iron its not even creating the role

@client.command()
async def customrole(ctx, rolename, hexcode):
    try:
      await ctx.guild.create_role(name=rolename, color=hexcode, 
permissions=discord.Permissions(permissions=None))

      await ctx.send("Successful")
    except Exception as e:
      print(e)

[hasty iron]

you didnt even typehint it

[lofty raptor]

Is there any channel to execute codes

?

[upbeat otter]

oh my bad

[fallow mauve]

is there a way to check if the user of a specific command has a certain id?

[upbeat otter]

yesh

[fallow mauve]

how?

[final iron]

#bot-commands

[upbeat otter]

just add .id to the message author

ctx.message.author.id

just like this

[sage otter]

you can just do ctx.author btw

[upbeat otter]

he wants id

for the user

[sage otter]

yeah

[dim cedar]

well i think there would be await instead of ctx

[upbeat otter]

where?

[sage otter]

so ctx.author.id ??????

[upbeat otter]

yes

[dim cedar]

line 5

[sage otter]

Yeah I was telling you. Not him

[upbeat otter]

huh

[upbeat otter]

wha....

[sage otter]

That you could can do ctx.author instead of ctx.message.author

[dim cedar]

yes try that

[upbeat otter]

where?

which line?

[dim cedar]

line 5

[upbeat otter]

in the create role?

[dim cedar]

await guild.create_role

[dim cedar]

hmm

[sage otter]

What ????

[upbeat otter]

do u know what asynchronous functions are, my friend 😂

no offence

[dim cedar]

in my mute cmd i used that await guild to create a muted role

[final iron]

No offense but if you don't know how to help don't

[reef shell]

yep

[upbeat otter]

wha...

[jade jolt]

yupp

[reef shell]

you probably made another lib for async programming

[upbeat otter]

I am seriously confused 🥲 , how can asynchronous function keyword have any relation with discord py

[dim cedar]

try await guild

with no dots in between

[upbeat otter]

guild will remain undefined

[hasty iron]

discord.py is an async lib

[jade jolt]

yup

[reef shell]

don't help in something you don't know

[upbeat otter]

i meant like....the other way 'round

[hasty iron]

?

[dim cedar]

guild = ctx.guild```

[upbeat otter]

Ummm..i meant how can await be used to create something

[dim cedar]

forgot to say

[sage otter]

He doesn’t need to do that

[slate swan]

using discord.py 🤓

[sage otter]

Doing ctx.guild literally does the same thing

[upbeat otter]

i am doing the same thing ig

@client.command()
async def customrole(ctx, rolename, hexcode, member: discord.Member=None):
  if member is None:
    member = ctx.message.author
    try:
      await ctx.guild.create_role(name=rolename, color=int(hexcode), permissions=discord.Permissions(permissions=None))

[hasty iron]

await doesnt create something

it just waits till a coroutine finishes executing

[reef shell]

await is used to run coroutine

[upbeat otter]

yeah, riad was giving me solution to use await instead of ctx 🥲

[hasty iron]

you can not do await and still run an async functionn

[whole shoal]

What is the new message intent thing

[upbeat otter]

anyways if i mention a type hint, it gives an error @hasty iron

[hasty iron]

!e ```py

i used this to create a muted role

SURE, JUST A MINUTE

[hasty iron]

you typehinted it, but its not the correct typehint

i said typehint as discord.Color

[upbeat otter]

oh...

like this?

@client.command()
async def customrole(ctx, rolename, hexcode, member: discord.Member=None):

    try:
      await ctx.guild.create_role(name=rolename, color=discord.Color(hexcode), permissions=discord.Permissions(permissions=None))

[hasty iron]

dude

how hard is it to typehint

[upbeat otter]

imma cry

[hasty iron]

you did it and now you removed it

and put the discord.Color somewhere else

[upbeat otter]

replace it with int in hexcode?

[hasty iron]

again, typehint hexcode as discord.Color

[upbeat otter]

oh

[hasty iron]

if you dont know what typehint is, its doing param: type

[upbeat otter]

yesh

@client.command()
async def customrole(ctx, rolename, hexcode: discord.Color, member: discord.Member=None):

    try:
      await ctx.guild.create_role(name=rolename, color=hexcode, permissions=discord.Permissions(permissions=None))

[sage otter]

You can’t pass in the hex code like that

[upbeat otter]

umm...

[sage otter]

discord.Color only accepts ints

[manic wing]

what are you tryna do

[lament mesa]

hmm

[lament mesa]

you should do some changes to the check

[upbeat otter]

@sage otter so is there no way to use a hexcode?

[lament mesa]

because the event will get triggered for reactions in server/dm

[reef shell]

0x<hex_code>

[sage otter]

I'd just listen to what blanket is saying

I just use 0x

[hasty iron]

typehint as discord.Color

[upbeat otter]

i did that

@client.command()

and?

did it work?

[upbeat otter]

nope

[hasty iron]

okay

[upbeat otter]

[hasty iron]

then how about you send an error if you're getting one

[sage otter]

No

I've tried that already

[hasty iron]

does nobody literally know the ColorConverter

[dapper cobalt]

[reef shell]

lol

[upbeat otter]

well...okay ill remove it

[sage otter]

Or just replace it with what I sent

[sage otter]

.

[slate swan]

don't really matter

[sage otter]

or nvm actually

You already have that

[slate swan]

removing the statement would show us the whole error tho

[upbeat otter]

i have already put that 🥲 i know how to use try and except

[slate swan]

not just the end

[sage otter]

Yeah just remove both the try and except then.

[plucky goblet]

its ok

[upbeat otter]

@hasty iron ayo, thanx, it worked now

[dapper cobalt]

conv = commands.ColourConverter()
colour_object = await conv.convert(ctx, '#ffffff')

[slate swan]

ctx?

[dapper cobalt]

As in a command.

@bot.command()
async def send_embed(ctx, color_string, *, title):
  conv = commands.ColourConverter()
  colour_object = await conv.convert(ctx, color_string)
  await ctx.send(embed=discord.Embed(color=colour_object, title=title))

[waxen granite]

        for cat in category:
            await ctx.send(cat.name)
            text = ""
            for channel in cat.channels:
                if channel.permissions_for(guild.me).view_channel:
                    text += f"{channel.name} | {channel.id}\n"
            await ctx.send(text)```
if the category has 0 channel which bot can see, sends an error- `400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message`

how do i pass that category ?

[hasty iron]

why not typehint?

[dapper cobalt]

Because, breaking news! I suck at them.

[reef shell]

description was not defined

that's why

did you mean description=content ?

[tulip oracle]

whats the attribute to list all working events? i have a dead event :/

[slate swan]

I want to do a command that when executed just as .tag would change your nickname, but when you type .tag @user it would change that user's name. ```py
async def tag(self, ctx, member: discord.Member):
if member == None:
usr = ctx.author
else:
usr = member

How can i do this ? i get the incomplete command error

[tulip oracle]

just make member optional

[slate swan]

set the default value to None

thanks

member: discord.Member=None

[plucky goblet]

how to set role permissions on using guild.create_text_channel?

[slate swan]

first, save the channel into a variable just like you do with a message

second, use discord.TextChannel.set_permissions

[plucky goblet]

or use overwriters

[jade jolt]

^^^

[slate swan]

it feels like I'm the one getting help

[jade jolt]

yup

[warm flame]

guys i keep getting this error'

and i cant fix it

[slate swan]

#python-discussion

[warm flame]

this is discord.py

[jade jolt]

#❓｜how-to-get-help *

[slate swan]

you don't want me to toaster tag you

[tulip oracle]

whats the attribute to list all working events? i have a dead event :/

[slate swan]

Just because you're doing whatever this is inside of a bot does not make it dpy related. #python-discussion
"i have a toaster in my house, do i ask a carpenter how to fix it?" - Laggy

oof I just did

[ember mauve]

whats the difference between the rewrite discord.py and the other one

?

[jade jolt]

a lot

[slate swan]

same difference as between python2 and python3

just with dpy

[ember mauve]

we can use both

right

[elfin flicker]

good afternoon, can someone teach how to put my bot 24/7

[slate swan]

meh, it would be really hard to write a bot without rewrite dpy

[ember mauve]

ig you have to host your bot on a server

[ember mauve]

rewrite is the one with 'ctx' right

[plucky goblet]

LOL

[slate swan]

@elfin flicker

[slate swan]

yes? ig

just use the newer version

[elfin flicker]

thank you

[ember mauve]

rewrite is the newer one right

[hasty iron]

it’s called "rewrite" for a reason

[slate swan]

no need to use 2.0, but please use rewrite

atleast

[ember mauve]

alr

thanks

[waxen granite]

is there a way to get general server permissions only for a role?

[slate swan]

anytime you check the docs, you see an "API Reference" that shows changes to that thing

almost everything

I used that wrong

anyways, yes

[slate swan]

heyo I need help

[jade jolt]

with

[slate swan]

I need to have a function where I can run a command and my bot will dm whoever I tagged

with a message that I set

@jade jolt any ideas?

[jade jolt]

a message in the command or just a message you stored in the bot

[slate swan]

a message that I stored in the bot, so whenever I run it, it'll send the message set in the code to whoever I tagged @jade jolt

run the command with the prefix that is

[jade jolt]

@bot.command()
async def dm(ctx, user: discord.Member):
  await user.send(predefined_message)

[slate swan]

oh damn really?

[jade jolt]

yeah

[slate swan]

that's it?

cool

[jade jolt]

change predefined_message to the message you set in the bot

[slate swan]

I'm assuming I'll have to put in my command handler stuff

[jade jolt]

if you need to lol

[slate swan]

''' @bot.command(name='8ball', help='Get an answer')
async def eightball(ctx, reaction, user):
balltwo = random.choice(ballin)
await ctx.send(balltwo) '''

crap it didn't format

[jade jolt]

lol

!codeblock

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[slate swan]

but that's an example of what I use

[jade jolt]

what do you need to change?

[slate swan]

no, nothing im just asking if that'll work for the code you gave me

[jade jolt]

it will

[slate swan]

alr cool, tysm

[plucky goblet]

what is the command to delete a channel

[sage otter]

await Channel.delete()

[spring flax]

!d discord.TextChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.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.

[slate swan]

use an instance

[reef shell]

!d discord.abc.GuildChannel.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.GuildChannel.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.

[ember mauve]

FreeCodeCamp made a video on dpy, 9 months ago, which was not the rewrite one. TechWithTim made one tutorial on rewrite 2 years ago. That is why i am confused Which one should i use?

which one is the latest

and easier and better

[upbeat otter]

Guys, is there a way to check, if a role was made using my bot?

[slate swan]

uh using the audit log maybe? that's the only way i can think of; but i don't really know how to do it

[upbeat otter]

I want to check if the member's top most role is created by the bot, then only delete the role, otherwise send a message

[slate swan]

What do you mean top most role

[upbeat otter]

the top most role of the user?

[slate swan]

Oh

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Member.top_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.top\_role

property top_role: Role```
Returns the member’s highest role.

This is useful for figuring where a member stands in the role hierarchy chain.

[upbeat otter]

I want to check if it was created by my bot

[maiden fable]

You will have to store it in a db or something

[slate swan]

I don't know how you'd check if the role is created by the bot without storing it

[upbeat otter]

ah i see, can i use a json file?

[maiden fable]

You just need to store True or False, so sure

[upbeat otter]

ohh, ok thanx brother

[maiden fable]

or

Just store those Role IDs which your bot makes @upbeat otter

No need for True and False also

and check if the top most role id is in the JSON

[upbeat otter]

ohhh, okay thanx

[upbeat otter]

how do i get the role id 🥲

[maiden fable]

(:

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Role.id

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role.id

The ID for the role.

[maiden fable]

It is unique

[upbeat otter]

ohhhkk thanx

yesh i know that, i just wanted to know how

[maiden fable]

👍

[upbeat otter]

:)

[fallow mauve]

ok, so when i use the kick command ive added to my bot, its set up like this: ";kick [user] [reason]"
but when i use it and the reason is more than one word, the message after it that says who was kicked and why, it only shows the first word for the reason, how do i fix this?

[maiden fable]

Code

[fallow mauve]

-_-

it ends up like this:

[lusty tide]

hello

[fallow mauve]

hi?

[lusty tide]

I need help

[fallow mauve]

so do i

[maiden fable]

Code bruh

[fallow mauve]

lol

[maiden fable]

With?

[lusty tide]

does anyone of you know how to edit messages with this plugin? https://github.com/SilentJungle399/discord_buttons_plugin

I mean like send edited message with buttons

(for scrolling)

[fallow mauve]

i know that, do you think i got one error and gave up? no, im here bcs i cant figure it out

[maiden fable]

msg = await ctx.send()
await msg.edit(**kwargs)

[maiden fable]

.....?

[fallow mauve]

wait

u want me to send the code?

[maiden fable]

Yeaaa

[fallow mauve]

i thought you were telling me that the answer to my problem was to code it

[maiden fable]

Lmao

[fallow mauve]

@Bot.command(aliases= ['boot'])
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)
async def kick(ctx, member : discord.Member, reason=None):
  await member.kick()
  await ctx.send(f'**{member}** was just kicked from the server for {reason}.')

[maiden fable]

Yea thought so

do *, reason=None

[fallow mauve]

ok

[maiden fable]

That is gonna fix it

[fallow mauve]

what does the asterisk do?

[maiden fable]

It just consumes everything after member arg

[lusty tide]

hey, all you gotta do is async def kick(ctx, member : discord.Member, *, reason=None):

[maiden fable]

Yea

[lusty tide]

it's simple

[fallow mauve]

i see that now

im asking what the asterisk does in the code

[lusty tide]

if u add that star than it takes argument with more words

[lusty tide]

what

[fallow mauve]

?

[lusty tide]

does he do?

what's asterisk

[fallow mauve]

asterisk is the name of this symbol: *

[lusty tide]

ohhh

[maiden fable]

As I said, it just consumes all the args you provide after member param

[lusty tide]

yea it does that the following parameter can take more than one word

[fallow mauve]

ok

thx, that would explain a lot of things lol

[lusty tide]

like if u don't have it there it will take only hello bur if yes than hello world

[fallow mauve]

ok

[lusty tide]

also plz help

[fallow mauve]

never knew that, no wonder my commands are getting messed up lol

[lusty tide]

ohok lol

[maiden fable]

Haha it is fine

[lusty tide]

ye

[maiden fable]

Do u know how to edit a message?

[lusty tide]

yes

but not with the plugin

bcs this is how u send a message

but idk how to edit it like this

[maiden fable]

well what is buttons

[lusty tide]

the plugin

[fallow mauve]

the plugin lol

[lusty tide]

pepege

[fallow mauve]

hence this

[lusty tide]

yup

[fallow mauve]

but yes, thanks a lot for that help, i was just able to fix my super simple say command that i had no idea how to fix lol

[placid skiff]

How i make a command only usable by the bot owner?

[jovial ivy]

if ctx.author.id == author id:

[placid skiff]

With author_id = owner_id right?

[jovial ivy]

if ctx.author.id == your id:

[zinc reef]

There is a command decorator called is_owner

[placid skiff]

channel isn t set as a Channel object

[slate phoenix]

use the @commands.is_owner() decorator

[placid skiff]

That's what i was looking for

[slate phoenix]

or bot.is_owner depends if you’re using cogs or not

[zinc reef]

The decorator is the preferred way, as it allows you to handle the raised error when someone tries to call the command but is not the owner

[jovial ivy]

channel = self.client.get_channel(log_channel)

[placid skiff]

To make that work i need to set the owner id when i create the bot, right?

[zinc reef]

It will automatically fetch it if it is not set

[slate phoenix]

^

[placid skiff]

This doesn t mean that channel is a channel object lol

[jovial ivy]

so how do I fix it?

[placid skiff]

If you are trying to delete a message automatically then in your on_message event you can get the channel by using the parameter u pass into the on_message

def on_message(message)
       await message.channel.send("hi")

[slate swan]

await

everyone my bot is now verified by discord!!!!!!!!!!!!

[placid skiff]

good job bro

[sudden basin]

Congrats!

[slate swan]

[jovial ivy]

I'm trying to get the channel I want to send a message to

[errant bramble]

Does anyone know how to receive input from the user after the command has been ran

[placid skiff]

Can you paste the code?

[jovial ivy]

pastebin

[errant bramble]

so in a sense if I did !type bot will reply "What will you like to type" then the user could type again

[slate phoenix]

!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**...

[placid skiff]

You're trying to send a message into a log channel right?

[jovial ivy]

yes

[placid skiff]

What is that log_channel? An id? The name?,

[jovial ivy]

id: 834427936529711144

name: logs

[placid skiff]

Did you convert it or just paste the id?

[jovial ivy]

{
"token": "token",

"prefix" : ".",

"bot_author": "588377518470332417",

"log_channel": "834427936529711144"

}

my config

[placid skiff]

You re just passing it as a string, you have to convert that string into an int and then convert it into a channel using Converters

[jovial ivy]

oh

Is there a tutorial on how to convert on yt?

[placid skiff]

It was textchannelconverter maybe? 😂

Never used it

[placid skiff]

Try to search it, you can use other converter to, they're all the same

With member converters should be something at 100%

[placid skiff]

As an example, of course... They do different conversion xD

[jovial ivy]

thanks for your help

[jovial ivy]

but wait

I want it to take a channel id from the config.json file and then send a message to that channel

and not convert members

[placid skiff]

Yes yes, you need to convert that channel id from the config file into a TextChannel object, u do that using converters

[jovial ivy]

oh ok

thx

[hasty iron]

? just use get_channel

and in their case they’re going to need to cast their channel id to an int

[rigid island]

nooo

[jade jolt]

wonder why there are bits that are censored

hmmm not suspicious at all

[rigid island]

async def test(ctx, *, title):

Help me 💔

[rigid island]

idk y

[jade jolt]

show full code, no censoring

[hasty iron]

what are you using this for

[lapis karma]

What ? it’s checker

[lapis karma]

ok

[jade jolt]

why is some censored 👀

[hasty iron]

oh then lets see your code uncensored

[lapis karma]

.

[jade jolt]

what is it checking

[hasty iron]

and what is it taking

[rigid island]

this also not working

its getting weird

[lapis karma]

Why, tell me the error please

[rigid island]

no responseeeeeeeeeeeeee

[bold dawn]

Anyone know why I can find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow?

[lapis karma]

Don't worry, I didn't do anything dangerous😂

[hasty iron]

ok then how are we supposed to help, you sent your code and was like "where error"

we dont have clairvoyance

sorry to disappoint you

[rigid island]

here i have no error
in short no response

[rigid island]

do i write wrong command ??

[pliant gulch]

Because you use bot.event and overwrite the default on_message which processes commands

You need to add await bot.process_commands(message) to your on message

At the first indentation level and should be at the very bottom

[lapis karma]

Well, I don't know, so I'll rewrite the codes and check them out

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.process\_commands

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

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

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

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

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

[hasty iron]

if you dont know, then how are we supposed to?

[rigid island]

[lapis karma]

I'm sure there is nothing wrong with my code

[pliant gulch]

? Was there something I said wrong

[rigid island]

but above code i get from discordpy site

[hasty iron]

ok, tldr we cant tell you the error because you yourself dont know

[pliant gulch]

Yea, but again read what I said

You overwrite the default on_message so it doesn't process commands anymore

You need to manually add that

or at the very least use bot.listen()

[rigid island]

i dont understand tbh
i just stated making bot 2 days ago

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

@listen(name=None)```
A decorator that registers another function as an external event listener. Basically this allows you to listen to multiple events from different places e.g. such as [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready")

The functions being listened to must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.9)").

Example...

[lapis karma]

If I knew what was wrong, I would have solved the problem a long time ago😂😂

[rigid island]

👍 lemme check

[rigid island]

ig i'm using bot command not event

event one is working well

or i misunderstand u @hasty iron
srry if i did I'm new to the syntax

[hasty iron]

wrong ping

[rigid island]

AH?

[novel apex]

This is not a Modmail thread.

[hasty iron]

do all your commands work?

except that one?

[rigid island]

yess

[rigid island]

yeahhhhhhhh

thats the issue

[hasty iron]

!paste can you send your whole code

[unkempt canyon]

[hasty iron]

it might be an issue with indents

or something else

[pliant gulch]

blanket

its cause they didn't process commands manually

after overwriting the default on_message

[hasty iron]

but all their commands work?

[pliant gulch]

no they said none of them work iirc

[hasty iron]

except for that single one

[pliant gulch]

oh

I guess I missread

[rigid island]

do i have to send token too 👀

[hasty iron]

ofc not

[rigid island]

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

here u go

keep_alive()
ignore this one

[hasty iron]

uh

[rigid island]

?

[hasty iron]

you’re running client not bot

bot is where the commands are

[rigid island]

i have both of them in code

[hasty iron]

you’re running one

[rigid island]

but i didnt send the client part

[hasty iron]

why do you even have two?

you only need bot

[rigid island]

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

see this one u will understand

first i make it with client bcos i dont know about bot.command

now i'm doing with bot.command and its not working

[hasty iron]

i still don’t understand why you are using both

bot will have all the functionalities that client has + commands

[rigid island]

bcos before i dont know bot exist

and client one i wrote yesterday

and it in my file

is there any error for using both??

in a single file

[hasty iron]

you’re not supposed to use both

[dapper cobalt]

You can't run both at the same time. commands.Bot.run() is a blocking function.

bot.run()
client.run()

Only bot.run() will work while client.run() will not since bot.run() is blocking.

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.run

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.run

run(*args, **kwargs)```
A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use [`start()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.start "discord.ext.commands.Bot.start") coroutine or [`connect()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.connect "discord.ext.commands.Bot.connect") + [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.login "discord.ext.commands.Bot.login").

What is not working?

[rigid island]

@dapper cobalt for client we use
client.run(os.getenv("TOKEN"))
for bot what we use??

tbh now idk what i'm doing 🙂

[dapper cobalt]

client is an instance of commands.Bot and bot is an instance of commands.Bot.

[hasty iron]

client is Client and bot is Bot

I have a question,
Is there a way to make a bot create a role or atleast just move it down some placements in the rankings
If yes how (please ping me so i get a notification since its 1 am i have school tmrw not normal school as a 5/6 yo to 15/16 yo)
If no have a great day / night wherever you are

[rigid island]

okay 👀

[rigid island]

it's the code with client u can see

i dont understand bot syntax tbh

[pliant gulch]

syntax is all the same

discord.py is not a different language syntax does not change

commands.Bot inherits everything from discord.Client

The only thing you gotta really know is the new decorator, the command decorator i.e @bot.command() and how to form commands

Theres a quickstart on the commands extension on the documentation should be

Just read the hyperlinks from top down

thats what i'm doing 😭
