anyone?

[slate swan]

not 2.0

[sonic flax]

@bot.command(pass_context = True)
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.send(f'Pong! In {round(latency * 1000)}ms')

When I do /ping PyCharm says the command ping isn't found?

[waxen granite]

you mean to bypass the char limit of embed?

[slate swan]

The command doesn't exist

[sonic flax]

How do i make it then

[slate swan]

I don't know, show your code

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[slate swan]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[sonic flax]

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

[slate swan]

remove client variable

[sonic flax]

where

[slate swan]

Pretty much useless

remove latency variable

[sonic flax]

wheres the client variable

[slate swan]

Where you coded it

[sonic flax]

oh

so what do i put instead

[slate swan]

replace bot.remove_command('help') with help_command=None in the Bot arguments

[slate swan]

you remove it.

line 10, delete it

[maiden fable]

It is there since 1.7 or something

[slate swan]

no indeed

[maiden fable]

......

[slate swan]

also, tell Dew that he could delete pass_context from everywhere

[slate swan]

take a look by yourself

!d discord.abc.Messageable.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.send

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

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

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

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

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

[slate swan]

well that's 2.0

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send

here, that's not 2.0

[hardy geyser]

is it possible for me to use discord.Client to make a custom client for a user? if so then how, or would that count as self botting?

[slate swan]

!rule 2

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

2. Follow the Discord Community Guidelines and Terms Of Service.

[slate swan]

Selfbots are not allowed and Discord bans them

[sonic flax]

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

[maiden fable]

What if they mean that if u can subclass discord.Client?

[sonic flax]

It stilld oesnt work

what did id o wrong

[hardy geyser]

ye but im just asking if it would count as a selfbot, as i am not automating anything just making a custom client

if its a selfbot then i wont make it, simple

[slate swan]

remove all the pass_context = True

[maiden fable]

As long as u don't put a user token inside bot.run(), it isn't a self bot

[slate swan]

replace the latency with bot.latency

[slate swan]

is your bot online?

well, surely if it gives u an error

[hardy geyser]

so im allowed to use discord.Client to make a custom client?

[stark bobcat]

how do i check which guild the user was banned?

[maiden fable]

Sure

[sonic flax]

it says unexpected indent in line 1

[slate swan]

In the on_member_ban event?

omg

[hardy geyser]

also if you know, could you give a simple example of how to do this as client.run does not just accept my username and password

[slate swan]

Again

[hardy geyser]

so i suppose a different method?

[slate swan]

That's self botting

Which is not allowed

So stop trying to get help from here

[stark bobcat]

oh

[hardy geyser]

but hunter said it wasnt..

[maiden fable]

Ah, that's not possible

Bruh, subclassing is different

[hardy geyser]

so im allowed to do it, except its not possible 😆

[slate swan]

No you are not allowed to do it

As simple as that

[maiden fable]

Well u can do that, but then it's against ToS, so best of luck getting banned from Discord haha

[slate swan]

hunter, a partner in crime

[hardy geyser]

what about clients like betterdiscord, against tos?

[slate swan]

Yes

yes

[maiden fable]

Eh, I don't think I have ever self botted

Or I have? I don't really remember tbh

[slate swan]

https://twitter.com/discord/status/908000828690182145

Discord (@discord)

@Popular_Gamers BetterDiscord is actually against our ToS!

[slate swan]

Exactly

[waxen granite]

days = obg(obgend, localdate), "days" await message.reply(f"Current Posting:OBG, {days} to go.")
this sends like this Current Posting: OBG, (38, 'days') to go.
how can i remove ' ' and ()

[slate swan]

!d str.strip

[unkempt canyon]

str.strip

str.strip([chars])```
Return a copy of the string with the leading and trailing characters removed. The *chars* argument is a string specifying the set of characters to be removed. If omitted or `None`, the *chars* argument defaults to removing whitespace. The *chars* argument is not a prefix or suffix; rather, all combinations of its values are stripped:

```py
>>> '   spacious   '.strip()
'spacious'
>>> 'www.example.com'.strip('cmowz.')
'example'
```  The outermost leading and trailing *chars* argument values are stripped from the string. Characters are removed from the leading end until reaching a string character that is not contained in the set of characters in *chars*. A similar action takes place on the trailing end. For example:

[slate swan]

can the emoji in discord.Message.add_reaction be a list of emoji?

[hasty iron]

its add_reaction for a reason

its not add_reactions

[slate swan]

k just thought that they would have made it like that so you can just input muliple reactions easier

and less code

[waxen granite]

not able to do it can u give an example?

[slate swan]

await message.reply(f"Current Posting: OBG, {days} to go.".strip("()''"))

@waxen granite

[waxen granite]

oh like that

too late i revamped the whole thing xd

ty tho

[loud nebula]

you need to do @commands.command btw

[fading harness]

how do i install it on my code?
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="choi!", intents=intents)

i want to install the prefix c!

[manic wing]

my guy you just do bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["choi!", "c!"], intents=intents)

[loud nebula]

i did bt a new error raised

[manic wing]

thats not to do with the @commands.command, that just means you misspelt channel

crikey

[loud nebula]

the spelling is correct :/

[manic wing]

oh right my bad

one sec

its just ctx.author.voice.channel

@loud nebula

[loud nebula]

ty but there is an another error

[manic wing]

voice_client

[loud nebula]

ty it worked bt now i m facing this error

object has no attribute 'stop'

[manic wing]

that means there is no voice_client (aka voice_client returns none)

[elfin flicker]

yes, when I type >clm Spring it does not give me the result, but when I type >clm Summer it does give me the result

[slate swan]

what do you have after the if statement?

[slate swan]

i mean , inside the if statement

[elfin flicker]

[slate swan]

if str(Temporada) == "SUmmer":

i dont see a part where you send the message.....

oh okh

so what value for the field value does it show?

do you recieve an error in the console?

[elfin flicker]

I do not receive an error in the console, but it does not send me the embed message

Okay, thanks will checkout

[slate swan]

do you have some error handler?

( an on_command_error event i mean)

[elfin flicker]

?

[slate swan]

yes

this is stopping you from getting errors , add py else : raise error to it

[elfin flicker]

ho ok

did?

[slate swan]

in the last , after your if and elif statements

ok

not here , in the on_command_error part

it says discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "ping" is not found
Ignoring exception in command None:
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "play" is not found

when i do acommand

what do i do wrong

[reef shell]

@bot.command()

You're missing the parentheses

[tawdry perch]

you also imported commands, but you are using bot, why?

[reef shell]

What?

Bot is a class of ext.commands

[tawdry perch]

the from discord.ext import commands isn't it used for @commands.command()?

[sonic flax]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cahidipoya.py My code works now, but every time i do /ping it shows the same

[reef shell]

@commands.command() is used in cogs

[tawdry perch]

yes, ik

[reef shell]

He is not using cogs here

[reef shell]

Shows the same what?

[tawdry perch]

It's just a useless import, that is what I mean

[sonic flax]

the same ping

[sonic flax]

every time it says 49 ms

[reef shell]

Not at all

[tawdry perch]

hmm I have mistaken it badly then

[reef shell]

U can say the last import they made is useless

since he is using commands.Bot to construct his bot

[tawdry perch]

I see

[reef shell]

then your ping is 49ms everytime

quite possible

[leaden anvil]

Ok, is there a way to send/share web pages directly in an embed, which fully function ? if so then please tell

[reef shell]

For example?

[lyric moat]

how can i make my bot mobile online status?

[leaden anvil]

a person wants to send a webpage in an embed that wants to rate feedback and posts it automatically on the website.

[tawdry perch]

I don't think it is available (not sure)

[reef shell]

That is not possible i think,
I'm not familiar with it

[lyric moat]

i saw a bot thats maded in python did it

[soft belfry]

webhook = await channel.create_webhook(name=message.author.name)

url = message.author.avatar_url
print(url)
await webhook.send(message.content, username=message.author.name, avatar_url=url)

webhooks = await channel.webhooks()
for webhook in webhooks:
    await webhook.delete()

This wont send a webhook message because of the avatar_url=url, doesnt give any errors and I cant find something on google

[reef shell]

are you looking for this?

[reef shell]

^

[lyric moat]

yeah

[reef shell]

This is not available in dpy iirc

[sonic flax]

when i restart the bots it sdifeferent

[reef shell]

that's normal

[soft belfry]

can anyone help real quick?

[sonic flax]

so why is the ping the same

[celest marlin]

its pretty normal

your code looks fine

[cloud folio]

Why is this not working?

[slate swan]

aint it obvious by the error , a_string is an int , try using str(a_string).split()

[cloud folio]

like it worked, but there's another error

[odd walrus]

uhm what command is it for the command to tag back the person that used the command

[reef shell]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.author

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

[odd walrus]

tq boss

[reef shell]

!d discord.User.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.mention

property mention: str```
Returns a string that allows you to mention the given user.

[reef shell]

this returns the author who can be mentioned by .mention

[errant abyss]

How do I send the same message, but in an embed form?

[errant abyss]

@reef shell help

[slate swan]

!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.

[errant abyss]

so how do i add it to the code?

[slate swan]

also , avoid using discord.Client for commands
use discord.ext.commands.Bot instead

[slate swan]

declare a variable for an discord.Embed object and use it

.send() takes an embed arg

how can i make a check for roles?

[hasty iron]

use client.start

client.run(token)```

for this code, I'm getting this weird, unexpected output:
```<discord.embeds.Embed object at 0x000002402E047828>```
How do I correct it?

[hasty iron]

!d discord.Client.start

[hasty iron]

it blocks the current task btw

[slate swan]

channel.send(embed=embed)

[reef shell]

didn't know field values can be integers

thanks lemme try again

        await channel.send("sucess")


if __name__ == '__main__':
    testApp().run()```

very weird ik

[hasty iron]

use client.start and loop.create_task

[haughty sedge]

no the error is wayyyy different

[reef shell]

oh no

[haughty sedge]

alright

[reef shell]

i read it wrong, nvm

[hasty iron]

and then await client.wait_until_ready() before getting the channel

also that wouldn’t work

asyncio.run creates a new loop each time

it will raise an error about futures being attached to a different event loop

[haughty sedge]

oh uh

[hasty iron]

since you’re creating the discord client outside the asyncio.run context

[haughty sedge]

how do i run two event looop tasks

app goes into not responding state never works

[errant abyss]

how do i display the user's username/nickname in the embed title?

i used this: username = client.get_user(user_id)

[reef shell]

do you mean the context author?

[errant abyss]

and i'm getting this error: Unresolved reference 'user_id'

[errant abyss]

the author of the message

[haughty sedge]

any possible way to achieve what im trying to do

[reef shell]

it's the same, use ctx.author to get that user

[errant abyss]

lemme try

[reef shell]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.author

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.author

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

[placid skiff]

Why you want to create two loop tasks? You can do what you want in one single loop

[haughty sedge]

no, i want to boot a bot from an app

[reef shell]

they might need different looping time

[cloud folio]

Why is this not working?

[haughty sedge]

how do i give them then

[cloud folio]

(There is client.run)

[errant abyss]

import discord


def read_token():
    with open("token.txt", "r") as f:
        lines = f.readlines()
        return lines[0].strip()


token = read_token()

client = discord.Client()


@client.event
async def on_message(ctx, message):
    if message.content.find("!hello") != -1:
        mention = message.author.mention
        username = message.ctx.author
        embed = discord.Embed(title = f"Hi {username}", description = f"Hi {mention}")
        await message.channel.send(embed=embed)


client.run(token)
``` i'm getting this error: ```TypeError: on_message() missing 1 required positional argument: 'message'``` @reef shell

[brazen raft]

remove ctx, there

[errant abyss]

lemme try

[cloud folio]

?

[reef shell]

on_message takes only one arg. and it is message, why are you passing ctx in it?

[hasty iron]

yes, client.loop.run_until_complete

[brazen raft]

and do username = message.author.username

[errant abyss]

AttributeError: 'Member' object has no attribute 'username'

[reef shell]

alr, i didn't know that you are using on_message event, this is applicable in commands

[errant abyss]

i got this error

[reef shell]

message.author.name

[errant abyss]

lemme try

[reef shell]

not username

[cloud folio]

please

[hasty iron]

or just str(message.author)

[hasty iron]

because you’re not running the client?

[dim cedar]

how can i make a check for roles?

[cloud folio]

i am

[hasty iron]

clearly aren’t, where is client.run?

[errant abyss]

hey thanks, this worked!

[hasty iron]

actually, why are you using find

[cloud folio]

idk

but, why is it not working

[hasty iron]

do you know what it does

!d str.find

[unkempt canyon]

str.find

str.find(sub[, start[, end]])```
Return the lowest index in the string where substring *sub* is found within the slice `s[start:end]`. Optional arguments *start* and *end* are interpreted as in slice notation. Return `-1` if *sub* is not found.

Note

The [`find()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.find "str.find") method should be used only if you need to know the position of *sub*. To check if *sub* is a substring or not, use the [`in`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#in) operator:

```py
>>> 'Py' in 'Python'
True

[hasty iron]

the Note is what you need

[cloud folio]

Note?

[reef shell]

if 'hi' is at the start of the message.content it will return 0 meaning that statement is False

[hasty iron]

can you read what the bot sent

[dim cedar]

can anyone help me?

[slate swan]

@commands.has_any_role('role')

[dim cedar]

how can i make a check for roles?

[cloud folio]

oh

[dim cedar]

oh

[cloud folio]

now it works, thanks

[dim cedar]

i wanna do it with out @commads

[haughty sedge]

    async def runit(self, *args):
        asyncio.set_event_loop(asyncio.new_event_loop())
        channel = client.get_channel(895211655670149133)
        await channel.send("sucess")```

i got a different error this time but super big traceback, But it says nonetype has no attribute send

and yes that channel exists

oh wait

[waxen granite]

What should i use in the on_command_error for the required permissions and how to i print thr permission (s)?

[hasty iron]

why…

[haughty sedge]

bruh something went wrong again

[hasty iron]

didnt i tell you to use client.loop.run_until_complete

[slate swan]

if isinstance(error, MissingPermissions):
print(error)

[haughty sedge]

wait lemme try that too

[hasty iron]

you aren’t even running the client

[waxen granite]

Isnt missing permissions raises error for the ctx.author?

[haughty sedge]

yea i noticed that now

[slate swan]

yep

[hasty iron]

oh man

[waxen granite]

I am asking if the bot doesnt have the permission

[hasty iron]

!d asyncio.loop.run_until_complete

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.loop.run\_until\_complete

loop.run_until_complete(future)```
Run until the *future* (an instance of [`Future`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-future.html#asyncio.Future "asyncio.Future")) has completed.

If the argument is a [coroutine object](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine) it is implicitly scheduled to run as a [`asyncio.Task`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task "asyncio.Task").

Return the Future’s result or raise its exception.

[slate swan]

BotMissingPermissions

[haughty sedge]

ty

[slate swan]

use if

isinatnce

[waxen granite]

And how do i send what permissions the bot is missing?

[haughty sedge]

what does the future mean is it the function which i wanna run

[slate swan]

do u want it to print or send in the channel?

[waxen granite]

Send in the ctx channel

[slate swan]

guys hello sorry to bother am looking to learn python any idea where i can start

[slate swan]

if isinstance(error, BotMissingPermissions):
        await ctx.send(f"{error}")

well i just use this try this

[waxen granite]

Okay thanks

[slate swan]

help pls im trying to figure out from long time

[slate swan]

on it thank you very much anu!

no problem

[waxen granite]

well i am trying to make the bot connect to a voice channel which it cant see, should it not raise the error for botmissingperms?

[lyric tinsel]

When does that occur

[cloud folio]

How can i check server id from message?

[lyric tinsel]

When you keyboardinterupt

[lyric tinsel]

message has an attribute guild

Which well, is a guild object

You can get id from

[cloud folio]

message.guild?

[lyric tinsel]

Which is the guild object

Guild objects have an id attribute too

[cloud folio]

so message.guild.id

[lyric tinsel]

Correct

[waxen granite]

how can i locally dump/save a channel id in a cog?

[cloud folio]

nice it works

thx

[errant abyss]

what is the use of '*' in command handling decorators?

like i just saw YT video where the guy did that after including 'ctx'

let's say my command's name is 'b64'. so i type in '.b64 <x> <y>' to call the command, now i want the bot to extract x and y into separate variables. how do i do that?

and make the bot behave depending on the variables x and y

using an if case statement most prolly

[reef shell]

async def foo(ctx, first_arg, second_ard):

this function takes two arguments ( when invoking the command, assuming you are using the decorator )

[errant abyss]

so what's the use of the asterisk?

oh ok thanks

[reef shell]

and you can access them inside the function as well

[errant abyss]

oh cool

what if any of those arguments are absent?

[reef shell]

asterisk means any arguments after * is keyword arguments

[errant abyss]

oh ok

[slate swan]

A command who gives a role for all members? Pls is urgent

[waxen granite]

Code it urgently

[kindred epoch]

^^

[slate swan]

role = ...
for member in guild.members:
  if not member.bot:
    try:
      await member.add_roles(role)
    except discord.Forbidden:
      pass

[reef shell]

You need to iterate through all members and give them the role

[slate swan]

Thx

[slate swan]

or if yk that ur bot's role is at the top and always has perms you could shorten the code by doing this

import asyncio

role = ...
coros = [m.add_roles(role) for m in guild.members if not m.bot]
asyncio.gather(*coros)

either way, yw

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hasty iron]

ratelimits

actually since requests use a lock in dpy asyncio.gather is basically useless

since you’re still going to do one at a time

[slate swan]

that's why i said it's only to "shorten" the code

and maybe make it look a lil' more professional idk 😎

how do i install pip install discord.py

in my console

?

you get pip

[sonic flax]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[slate swan]

and then use pip install discord.py

[sonic flax]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/behikedije.py
When I do /help it says discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: set_author() missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'

[slate swan]

There are also a lot of wrong things

inline, not incline

bot.send_message(author... is old code now it's author.send(...

don't copy paste code from old bots or old tutorials

and it's embed = discord.Embed() not embed = discord.Embed

[sonic flax]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/oleminugum.py
it now says help isnt a command

[slate swan]

You shouldn't make a custom help command like that anyways

Here's how to make one ^

[waxen python]

How do I

import discord

on VSCode?

I just says No module named 'discord'

[cloud folio]

How can i edit yaml file? "status: false" to "status: true"

[slate swan]

Do you have the module?

[sonic flax]

I dont understnad what to do with that

[cloud folio]

you must do pip install discord.py

in cmd

[slate swan]

Or just pip install discord

[cloud folio]

it works too?

[slate swan]

Yes

[cloud folio]

lol, I didn't know that

[waxen python]

How lmao

[cloud folio]

go to cmd

[waxen python]

Yes

[cloud folio]

and run pip install discord

[waxen python]

It doesn't work

[cloud folio]

what does it show

?

[slate swan]

Go to your python setup and repair

Thats what i do and it works great

[slate swan]

Then you should learn more about Python

[cloud folio]

run cd and the folder where u have setup.py

@waxen python

[slate swan]

That won't change anything lmao

[cloud folio]

it will

[waxen python]

Bro wdym

[slate swan]

pip is not in the system environment variables

So the command will never work

Yeah only python is

[cloud folio]

i needed to do that at the first time too

[slate swan]

No you don't lmao

When you download it just press add python to path and your good if not thats your fault

pip is added automatically if you installed Python correctly and ticked the checkmark

[cloud folio]

mm ok

btw how can i edit yaml file? "status: false" to "status: true"

[waxen python]

So what tf do I do

I can't "import Discord' on VSCode because it just says Module not found

[slate swan]

Add pip to the environment variables

[cloud folio]

run pip --version

[slate swan]

Dude

When will you understand

That using pip will NEVER work

As it's not in the environment variables

And therefore the command cannot be found

https://appuals.com/fix-pip-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command/

[waxen python]

Yeah that's literally my error lol

[slate swan]

They explain how to add to environment variables

[bold depot]

Hi. How do I edit a message embed through a bot? I see Generally what I have to do, but I don't Understand How it works.

I'm trying to edit a single embed with the current utc time every hour on the hour.

[slate swan]

Next time installing python you should check the checkbox though

[slate swan]

When using .send() save it in a variable, then call var.edit() on it

[cloud folio]

How can i edit yaml file? "status: false" to "status: true"

[waxen python]

So..?

[hasty iron]

https://github.com/an-dyy/Lefi/commit/71f3280a2d8739c1c50eb071ed8072fbc59814e5 guyz merge/commit review

[slate swan]

Ok cool?

Maybe follow the rules

[unique mist]

Is there a way to get someones user ID from a display name?

        role = discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name="Stage1")
        await user.add_roles(role)

I have this and a list of display names, I need to be able to grab the user ID from a display name

[hasty iron]

what

[unique mist]

woah

[cloud folio]

mmmm

[calm vector]

!silence

[unkempt canyon]

✅ silenced current channel for 10 minute(s).

[calm vector]

<@&267628507062992896> raid

[unkempt canyon]

✅ unsilenced current channel.

[slate swan]

[waxen python]

...

[pliant gulch]

😳

[waxen python]

It's working now

All I had to do is download Python from the Microsoft Store (I downloaded it from the Python website) then I did pip3 install discord on cmd

[bold depot]

So this is what I have atm:

current_month = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"]

@tasks.loop(hours = 1)
async def send():
    tm = datetime.datetime.utcnow()

    #t = tm.strftime("%m/%d/%Y %I:%M:%S")

    # Get the Months
    months = int(tm.strftime("%m"))
    display_month = current_month[months-1]

    # Get the Day's Name
    day = tm.strftime("%A")

    # Get the Year
    years = tm.strftime("%Y")

    # Get the Hours and Minutes (12 hour clock)
    hrs_mins = tm.strftime("%I:%M")

    # Get the Hours (12 Hour Clock)
    hrs = tm.strftime("%I")

    # Get the Minutes)
    mins = tm.strftime("%M")

    if int(hrs) > 12:
      hrs = tm + datetime.timedelta(hours = -12)
      hrs_mins = f"{hrs}:{mins} PM"

    # Get the AM/PM
    day_night = tm.strftime("%p")

    #bot.message.embeds[0]
    #bot.message.edit(embed = new_embed)

    # Get the Channel Id
    channel = bot.get_channel(895031238371467287)

    #channel.fetch_message
    
    #Create the Embed
    em = discord.Embed(title = f"**{day}**", description = f"{hrs_mins} {day_night}"#, color = ctx.author.color
    )
    em.add_field(name = f"**{display_month}**", value = f"{years}")

    # Send The Embed
    await channel.send(embed = em)
send.start()

I feel I may have some redundancies here and there, but idk. I have no clue how to edit the embed once every hour without creating a new embed.

[slate swan]

Make it send once, then save the message ID and channel ID. Then for the loop get a channel object from the ID you've saved and get a message object with the message ID using that channel object.

[edgy meadow]

Hey, i' dont know why this code delete's the message after it has been send

@client.command()
async def refresh_lights(ctx):

    await ctx.message.delete()

    if "ʟɪɢʜᴛ-ᴄᴏɴᴛʀᴏʟʟᴇʀ" == str(ctx.channel):

        for light in learn.light_names:
            if light == "Color2":
                embedVar = discord.Embed(title=f"LAMP: {light}", color=0x000000)
                message = await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)

                await message.add_reaction("🟩")
                await message.add_reaction("🟥")
                await message.add_reaction("🟦")
                await message.add_reaction("🟨")

                await message.add_reaction("✅")
                await message.add_reaction("❌")

[slate swan]

What message is being deleted?

[edgy meadow]

I found it, another bot in the server delete's message with the red cross reaction

So when i tried to add it, it got deleted

[slate swan]

Oh well x)

[lyric moat]

how can i make my bot discord mobile online?

[slate swan]

You can't

Bots that have mobile online status are not allowed

[slate swan]

You cant

[bold depot]

I do not understand what's wrong. I keep getting this traceback whenever I try to run the bot in my friend's server, but have no issue with it in my own server:

Traceback (most recent call last):

The bot has fewer permissions in MY server than MY FRIEND'S. Why does it not like my friend's server?

[lyric moat]

other bots in python does it

[dapper cobalt]

Either the bot doesn't have embed links permissions or doesn't have send messages permissions.

[dapper cobalt]

You don't. You shouldn't do it.

It's possible, but not supported from the API directly. And you shouldn't do it.

[slate swan]

it have an specific server of discord.py?

[lyric moat]

Alright

[dapper cobalt]

discord.gg/dpy

[bold depot]

Just fixed it. Bot couldn't view or send messages in the channel

[slate swan]

oo

[lyric moat]

python and discord.py is not the same?

[hasty iron]

no

[slate swan]

im baned but idk why?ç

[dapper cobalt]

Python is a language, discord.py is a library.

[slate swan]

no

https://felony.is-a.fail/5b_w7khNl

[slate swan]

u can tell somethings to the admins of this server for unban me?

[hasty iron]

cluster is a string

[dapper cobalt]

You imported MongoClient, now use it, maybe?

[hasty iron]

and from the image, it is

[dapper cobalt]

No.

[slate swan]

cuz idk why

[hasty iron]

you’re putting the url string inside ()

and doing nothing with it

[slate swan]

i did, that's like a ss before i did it

[slate swan]

im baned

cluster = MongoClient

[hasty iron]

wow so useful

sending an old ss

[slate swan]

or tell me the username of on admin

https://felony.is-a.fail/5b_yEhp2Y

[dapper cobalt]

Imma go make me a sandwich. Goodluck, @hasty iron .

[hasty iron]

oh wtf man

[slate swan]

wtf it's blocked lol

[hasty iron]

send error with updated code

[slate swan]

https://felony.is-a.fail/5b_yOoP9C

there

it's the same as before

[hasty iron]

nope, cant be

cluster is not a string anymore

[quiet coral]

Hello can I make a discord bot that announces the user that joined the voice channel with discord.py ?

[hasty iron]

yes, use the on_voice_state_update event

[placid skiff]

The cog had an execution error, i don't understan why honestly

[hasty iron]

ok so where is the error

[placid skiff]

The ide tells me that "Shadows name 'bot' from outer scope "

[hasty iron]

that’s a warning

not an error

[placid skiff]

This morning this cog works fine, i add a command and now this xD

[hasty iron]

again, where is the error

[placid skiff]

Read the code and tell me hahaha i don't find any

[hasty iron]

i dont see anything wrong with your code

and once again, we need an error too

[placid skiff]

Bruh. I try to print the exception

[hasty iron]

actually, why are you using both dislash and nexcord

nextcord*

just use disnake at that point

[placid skiff]

To create slash command D_D

Well it is not like that i'm used to dislash yet, plus it seems that it doesn't have a lot of features

[placid skiff]

Oh well i find the error
The name of the option in dislash must be lowercase

[dapper cobalt]

Do you know what does NoneType mean?

It stops working at if len(u.id) != 18 or is_on_list is not None or is_exempted is not None or bool(u.bot) is True:

and doesn't say anything

[hasty iron]

btw u.bot is already a bool

does it print no?

[trim barn]

no

[hasty iron]

error?

[trim barn]

none

for some reason

[hasty iron]

impossible

it can’t just "stop"

[trim barn]

well idk

[dapper cobalt]

Better way to check if something is None or not is this way:

var = "This is not None"
if var:
  print("var is not none!")
else:
  print("var is none!")

[elfin flicker]

What does it mean

[hasty iron]

its None

its the type of None

!d types.NoneType

[unkempt canyon]

types.NoneType

types.NoneType```
The type of [`None`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None "None").

New in version 3.10.

[dapper cobalt]

Please do not jump into discord.py if you don't have enough knowledge in Python. I recommend you learn Python well first, since discord.py is an intermediate level library.

[elfin flicker]

the search ends in nothing

:/

[dapper cobalt]

Do you know what None is?

[hasty iron]

because result is None

[trim barn]

if len(u.id) != 18 or not is_on_list or not is_exempted or u.bot is True:

?

[hasty iron]

bruh

None isn’t english exclusive

atleast in python

[dapper cobalt]

This way you are checking if is_on_list is False/None, and same with is_exempted.

[hasty iron]

if you dont know what None is (in python) refer to this #discord-bots message

[trim barn]

If one of the characteristics is wrong it'll send a different message

[dapper cobalt]

!e

bot = True
if bot:
  print("Bot is true")

[unkempt canyon]

@dapper cobalt :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

Bot is true

[dapper cobalt]

if bot instead of if bot is True.

[trim barn]

it returns none values

[dapper cobalt]

!e

bot = None
if not bot:
  print("bot is None")

[unkempt canyon]

@dapper cobalt :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

bot is None

[trim barn]

i am using pymongo

[dapper cobalt]

Then the data you are getting most likely doesn't exist.

[hasty iron]

None is basically False but not a bool

how do you actually know it crashes at that specific if statement

You cannot code discord.py in this bot.

this might just be me being dumb but how do you get a program / discord bot to see every version of a word

where would i put that ?

[slate phoenix]

is it for a command or for message content?

Help

[vale cairn]

message content

[slate phoenix]

what you would do is message.content.lower() and then compare what ever you want to that example:

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.content.lower() == "hello":
    message.channel.send("Hi!")

[weary panther]

you are trying to iterate over an int.

but it is a member

idk the term iterate

[weary panther]

iterating means going over each item in like a list or anything that has an iterator

Do you know what the error is saying?

[boreal osprey]

@kindred epoch it the error says target pararmeter must be a member or role

[slate swan]

so how could i fix it

[kindred epoch]

?

Read the 3rd line from the last

[boreal osprey]

it also says guild.create_role was never awaited

[weary panther]

well you are trying to iterate over an int, like 7. but an integer doesn't contain any items to iterate over it's just 7. so the question is what do you want to do with the integer or is it not supposed to be an integer?

[kindred epoch]

Yea so you need to await it

[slate swan]

so i need to get the member before han??

i'm trying to get the members in the db

from their ids

[mental walrus]

Are you trying to get the current list of members in the guild?

[slate swan]

no

the people in the database

[weary panther]

what kind of datatype does your database request return

[slate swan]

..

[kindred epoch]

@slate swan your just iterating over 1 id

[slate swan]

there's only 1 id in it

jf there's more than 1 id it would work??

[kindred epoch]

Ye duh

[weary panther]

no

[kindred epoch]

You should learn more about iterating over lists

[weary panther]

it still wouldnt

you should make the output go into a list of id's

or a set

if you do that then it would work

[kindred epoch]

Ye

[mental walrus]

Indeed

[kindred epoch]

First put it in a list

[weary panther]

create a function in your db getMemberIdList

[slate swan]

confusion

make a list in my db??

[kindred epoch]

What db are you using

[weary panther]

can you show the code for db

or the db class

[slate swan]

mongo

[slate swan]

you want to see the entry?*

[weary panther]

no nevermind, make a function that fetches all the id's of the members from your db and then puts it into a list.

[slate swan]

i've never used mongo befo

[weary panther]

the function should return that list

[kindred epoch]

Idk why ur using find_one

[slate swan]

also not to good at py

[slate swan]

i was watching a tutorial

[kindred epoch]

What do you find that does?

[slate swan]

wym

[kindred epoch]

Find 1 thing or multiple things

[slate swan]

1

[kindred epoch]

Then why are you iterating over it

[slate swan]

find_many is how to get multiple right

[weary panther]

i don't know,

[kindred epoch]

#databases

[weary panther]

if you want to store member id's for a discord server sqlite is probably good enough

[sick birch]

tutorials aren't the best, avoid using them

[lone dust]

member.avatar_url_as(format=None, static_format='webp', size=1024)
``` This is wrong?

i want the user's avatar url

[steel trench]

What are you trying to do

Oh

I've never used that format before, I commonly use

embed.set_image(url = user.avatar_url)

Depends if you want the embed though

[lone dust]

actually it was working in discord.py 1.7

 embed.set_image(url=ctx.author.avatar_url)

this?

[steel trench]

Yeah, if you want the author

Better to use a variable you can change it on the fly

[lone dust]

it will work for animated pfp too?

well i already tried it and it is showing error

[steel trench]

It should

[steel trench]

What error?

[lone dust]

member object has no attribute avatar_url

    @commands.command(aliases=['av', 'pfp'])
    async def avatar(self, ctx, member: discord.User = None):
        """Get user profile picture"""
        embed = discord.Embed(description='Your avatar 😳 ')

        if member == None:
            embed.set_image(url=ctx.author.avatar_url)
            await ctx.send(embed=embed)
        else:
            embed.set_image(url=member.avatar_url)
            await ctx.send(embed=embed

[valid niche]

Are you on 2.0?

[lone dust]

yes

[valid niche]

Then that doesn’t exist anymore

[steel trench]

Change it to discord.Member

[lone dust]

i just updated

[valid niche]

It’s now member.avatar

And that returns an asset

Which has the .url attribute

It’s more in line with how discord’s API actually works

So it’s no more _ but a . In between avatar and url

It’s now separated

[lone dust]

woops

thanks

[slate swan]

is it possible to have a command which takes a userid and then tells you what their username is?

[slate phoenix]

yes

is there any way to create a click to copy thing or to automatically copy something to your clipboard or just an easy way to copy something

[boreal ravine]

control c

[dapper cobalt]

ctrl+c to copy, ctrl+v to paste. And also this is irrelevant to discord bots?

[odd walrus]

anyone know what can i add to my scirpts so that the bot can only be used in my server instead of dms and server

[boreal ravine]

@commands.guild_only()

!d discord.ext.commands.guild_only

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.guild\_only

@discord.ext.commands.guild_only()```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that indicates this command must only be used in a guild context only. Basically, no private messages are allowed when using the command.

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

[boreal osprey]

i have a if statement that if the member doesn't have the role, it sends a message, but it seems to not send the message

@bot.command(aliases = ['unfm'])
@commands.has_permissions(manage_roles = True)

    guild = ctx.guild
    fmrole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name = 'Filemuted')

        await ctx.send(embed=emb)
        await member.send(f"You have been unfilemuted from {guild}!")

[odd walrus]

like this right

[visual island]

fmrole in member.roles is None this statement is wrong

[boreal osprey]

What is it supposed to be

[visual island]

fmrole in member.roles this is right fmrole in member.roles or fmrole is None this is also right

[boreal osprey]

I just need none

[visual island]

for?

[boreal osprey]

If someone doesn’t have the fmrole

In this case, the mentioned member

then if fmrole in member.roles: or if fmrole not in member.roles:

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

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

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[boreal ravine]

yes

[rugged tinsel]

If you're new to Python, please do not jump straight into discord.py. You won't be able to do anything if you don't understand what you are doing. Please learn Python first.

[ocean leaf]

i'm making a ban command and i need to check if the user has ban mmebers permission or not. I can do that by using @commands.has_permissions(ban_members = True). But what if i want to send a message if the user dosen't have ban members perms?

[steel trench]

Something with MissingPermissions I guess

I use if ctx.author.guild_permissions.ban_members: and then else:

Both of them (your concept and mine) will work I think

[ocean leaf]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

Hey I want to learn how to make both with python, where can I learn?(in free)

[slate swan]

https://vcokltfre.dev/

[dapper cobalt]

Make an error handler.

If the user is missing permissions set in the has_permissions check it will raise a commands.MissingPermissions error.

You can handle that error this way:

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
    await ctx.send(f"You are missing `{', '.join(error.missing_perms)}` permission(s) to use this command!")

[slate swan]

Or just do if member.guild_permissions.ban_members == False...

Though it's better to make error handlers TBH

[queen dagger]

why cant 2 people run the same command at once? or if you can, how?

[visual island]

you can

[patent lark]

if the command author is missing these permissions, you can catch the error in which it will raise and handle it by sending a message. although, there are many ways you could encounter this.

[queen dagger]

how so? it wont work for me.

[visual island]

if you have @commands.max_concurrency() in your command remove it

[patent lark]

this is a decorator in discord.ext.commands?

i never knew that actually, lol.

[visual island]

mhm

!d discord.ext.commands.max_concurrency

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.max\_concurrency

@discord.ext.commands.max_concurrency(number, per=discord.ext.commands.BucketType.default, *, wait=False)```
A decorator that adds a maximum concurrency to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") or its subclasses.

This enables you to only allow a certain number of command invocations at the same time, for example if a command takes too long or if only one user can use it at a time. This differs from a cooldown in that there is no set waiting period or token bucket – only a set number of people can run the command.

New in version 1.3.

[queen dagger]

nvm i figured out my issue, it was reading from a text file outside of the command function. which was causing that

[patent lark]

reading the doc, it seems like i could handle it if the command is taking too long to give an output?

or does it mean that if the command is still being executed, i could make this command function unable to be called again until it completes?

[visual island]

no built-in decorator for that

but I've created one

[patent lark]

oh really, yeah i might create one myself now that i think about it

[visual island]

[visual island]

make a default value of member

member: discord.Member = None

[hollow agate]

Ahh, thank you

[patent lark]

in your case, member is a required parameter and not a kwarg, since it's required, it cannot be None, you could encounter this by setting it to none by default. so in a case in where it isnt given, it would be None.

[patent lark]

interesting.

i dont have it on, and it still wont work.

why does it do that

[patent lark]

you need discord.Intents.members to be True

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(**kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

[slate swan]

so i'd have to add "discord." in front of the second one?

[patent lark]

no

[slate swan]

i'm confused

[patent lark]

do you have intents in your bot constructor ?

[ocean leaf]

i wanna tell him/her what perms is he/she missing

[patent lark]

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

[slate swan]

like this?

[boreal ravine]

Just do intents = discord.Intents.all() inside your commands.Bot variable

[boreal ravine]

yes

[patent lark]

yes but you must also add them with the intents kwarg in commands.Bot()

[slate swan]

ohh i understand what you mean

i just did that and it's still giving me 'None'

[patent lark]

you did this?

[slate swan]

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=['$'], help_command=None, intents=discord.Intents.all())

am i doing sum wrong?

[patent lark]

looks fine, other than you naming the bot object "client", lol.

[slate swan]

lmfao

i followed a tutorial when i first started and they did that, and it kinda just stuck

[patent lark]

yeah i'm not too sure why the bot still wouldnt be able to see other members in the guild.

[slate swan]

yeah it's weird

[visual island]

chunk the guild await guild.chunk()

[slate swan]

what does that mean

[patent lark]

!d discord.Guild.chunk

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.chunk

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

Requests all members that belong to this guild. In order to use this, [`Intents.members()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") must be enabled.

This is a websocket operation and can be slow.

New in version 1.5.

[slate swan]

where would i put that at

[visual island]

before your guild.get_member()

[slate swan]

oh thanks

    await guild.chunk()
    whoisuser = guild.get_member(message)
    await ctx.send(f"{whoisuser}")```
like this?

[visual island]

yes

oh wait

[slate swan]

it still doesn't work

huh

[visual island]

message here is still str

make it int

[patent lark]

message : int

[slate swan]

OMG

IT WORKED THANK YOU

i've been trying to figure that out for so long lmfaoooo

i always miss little things like that lol

[patent lark]

haha it's alright

[slate swan]

ummm pls give me button example

@patent lark

[patent lark]

im not the best with buttons, i used them like once a while ago, i think this is something basic

@bot.command()
async def buttons(ctx):
    await ctx.send(
        "Button",
        components=[
            Button(label = "CLick me")
        ]
    )   
    button_interaction = await bot.wait_for(
        "button_click",
        check = lambda button: button.component.label.startswith("Click")
        
    )
    await button_interaction.respond(content="Button has been clicked")

someone whos good at this will probably come and correct me if im wrong.

@visual island maybe?

[visual island]

i never used buttons, but iirc dpy doesnt have like wait_for("button_click") you should use callback

any tips on improving this ?

its a captcha system for discord

[visual island]

!d discord.Client.wait_for use this to remove the while True

[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**...

[visual island]

it has checks and timeout

Hey @void dew!

Uh-oh! It looks like your message got zapped by our spam filter. We currently don't allow .txt attachments, so here are some tips to help you travel safely:

• If you attempted to send a message longer than 2000 characters, try shortening your message to fit within the character limit or use a pasting service (see below)

• If you tried to show someone your code, you can use codeblocks
(run !code-blocks in #bot-commands for more information) or use a pasting service like:

https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[maiden fable]

Sad

!code

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
