Thats my code ^

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'BanEntry' object has no attribute 'id'

Thats my error^

I am trying to unban everyone

[ionic path]

I think it is because alot of programmers being smart with computer

but it doesn't nececarilly mean that they're also smart with everything

[ionic path]

hmm

is it in rewrite

[crystal wind]

Is it possible to have a bot interaction response without a button clicked?

[slate swan]

I think so?

Yesterday too it was showing 38days to go and today as well. Is something wrong?

[ionic path]

for user in banned_users:
  await client.unban(user)

^^

[slate swan]

Oh

[ionic path]

you used id in user

its supposed to be a member object

[slate swan]

ahh

[ionic path]

but you can use discord.utils.get to get the member object with just the id

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'unban'

[ionic path]

huh..

oh wait......

await user.unban() 🤦‍♂️

breh

[slate swan]

hm

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'BanEntry' object has no attribute 'unban'

[ionic path]

what

[slate swan]

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def munban(ctx):
    banned_users = await ctx.guild.bans()

    for user in banned_users:
        await user.unban()
    await ctx.send("Unbanned everyone.")

[ionic path]

hmm........................................

I think its in rewrite so maybe await ctx.guild.unban(user)?

I just removed the id

[slate swan]

I tried that too

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'BanEntry' object has no attribute 'id'

[ionic path]

its a ban entry object

not a user/member object

[slate swan]

[ionic path]

I found a way to get all banned members

[void dew]

I need help. Someone help me

[ionic path]

banned_users = await client.get_bans(ctx.guild)

[ionic path]

what

[void dew]

I have already asked my question

[ionic path]

where

[slate swan]

I got it to work, I did

    for entry in banned_users:
        await ctx.guild.unban(entry.user)

[ionic path]

nice

[void dew]

Here @ionic path

[ionic path]

where is the code to the aki command

[void dew]

Scroll below that I have sent a link of hastebin

try doing aki instead of ak

[void dew]

Then I get attribute error

.help

[outer violet]

How do I make a random colored embed have the same random color as another embed like this?

[visual island]

!botvar

[unkempt canyon]

Python allows you to set custom attributes to most objects, like your bot! By storing things as attributes of the bot object, you can access them anywhere you access your bot. In the discord.py library, these custom attributes are commonly known as "bot variables" and can be a lifesaver if your bot is divided into many different files. An example on how to use custom attributes on your bot is shown below:

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
# Set an attribute on our bot
bot.test = "I am accessible everywhere!"

@bot.command()
async def get(ctx: commands.Context):
    """A command to get the current value of `test`."""
    # Send what the test attribute is currently set to
    await ctx.send(ctx.bot.test)

@bot.command()
async def setval(ctx: commands.Context, *, new_text: str):
    """A command to set a new value of `test`."""
    # Here we change the attribute to what was specified in new_text
    bot.test = new_text

This all applies to cogs as well! You can set attributes to self as you wish.

Be sure not to overwrite attributes discord.py uses, like cogs or users. Name your attributes carefully!

[visual island]

put the random color value to a botvar

[unique breach]

guys

why does my discord bot keep saying this interaction failed in buttons even tho it works

[slate swan]

How could I create temp roles

[waxen granite]

datetime.date.today() gets the date from what timezone by default?

[slate swan]

UTC

[waxen granite]

Huh

Thats wierd then

[errant abyss]

how do i print the username without mentioning them?

[waxen granite]

User.name

[errant abyss]

lemme try

[slate swan]

That might also add the #7373

[errant abyss]

i don't wanna print the number

just the username

[errant abyss]

i got this error: Unresolved reference 'user'

[waxen granite]

Show code

[slate swan]

Show the command your using it in

[errant abyss]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import base64


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


token = read_token()

bot = discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix = '.')


@bot.command()
async def b64(ctx, task, string):
    if task == 'encode':
        stringBytes = string.encode("ascii")

        b64Bytes = base64.b64encode(stringBytes)
        b64String = b64Bytes.decode("ascii")

        embed = discord.Embed(title = f"Encoded string for {user.name}")


bot.run(token)```

lemme try'

thanks works now

[waxen granite]

Ctx.author

[slate swan]

Also I wouldn't use discord import

[slate swan]

Bit late

[waxen granite]

Ok

No competition here tho

[slate swan]

But he already got the answer

[waxen granite]

Cool

[slate swan]

I'll check out your bot

[errant abyss]

hey how do i print the nickname for a user?

instead of username with the # tag

@slate swan @waxen granite

[waxen granite]

It prints the nickname only in the ctx

I think

[errant abyss]

yeah i'm using ctx

how do i print it?

[waxen granite]

I mean the last code prints the nickname only

[errant abyss]

nah it printed my username with the # tag

[waxen granite]

Not sure tho

Change your name in the guild and try

[errant abyss]

lemme try

it's printing the same, but without the # tag

[waxen granite]

Use the .nick

[errant abyss]

where?

where exactly?

[waxen granite]

ctx.author.nick

[errant abyss]

lemme try

oh yeah thanks Endomorph

ctx is dope

[waxen granite]

Np

[errant abyss]

i have a command that takes 2 arguments

in case someone enters a third argument by mistake/accidentally enters a space, how do i print a error message for that?

[dapper cobalt]

Since it's not an error, you can't. And you don't need to either. It won't affect anything.

[errant abyss]

ok cool

i got a huge error

my command takes 2 arguments: .b64 encode/decode string

now i want to print a list of commands when the user types '.b64 help'

but i get an error that says 'string' argument is missing

how do is solve this?

[valid perch]

Can we see the command def

[errant abyss]

#help-pretzel

it's there

thanks @valid perch

[valid perch]

👍

Dont forget the other stuff I saidd

[errant abyss]

yeah sure

how do i turn the circled part to green color?

there's a thick black line right...

can i turn that to green?

[valid perch]

Thats it anyway

!d discord.Embed.colour

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.colour

The colour code of the embed. Aliased to color as well. This can be set during initialisation.

[errant abyss]

color or colour?

colour

aight

where do i add it in the code?

i typed it inside the embed def, and i got like 5 errors

[valid perch]

Embed(colour=...)

[errant abyss]

aight

i add in green with the hex code right?

#00FF00

like this?

[valid perch]

Try it and see

[maiden fable]

You can also do discord.Colour.green()

!d discord.Colour.green

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Colour.green

classmethod green()```
A factory method that returns a [`Colour`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Colour "discord.Colour") with a value of `0x2ecc71`.

[errant abyss]

hey thanks, works

Hey @errant abyss!

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

[errant abyss]

bruh i'm getting a huge set of text

[slate swan]

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

save and send the link

[errant abyss]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/isusevezaz.apache

and i don't see 'discord.py' anywhere

[slate swan]

coz thats all the requirements u have downloaded through pip

[errant abyss]

oh ok

[slate swan]

well where did u do pip freeze

pycharm or cmd prompt?

[errant abyss]

cmd

[slate swan]

hm ok

[errant abyss]

i went to the dir where i had my bot files and did cmd

[errant abyss]

oh

lemme try

[slate swan]

[dusk pumice]

What event happens when someone boosts the server?
Plz help me

[vocal plover]

member update

[dusk pumice]

Hmm

[dusk pumice]

You mean on_member_update?

How can I use it

[vocal plover]

check if the member before doesnt have the booster role and the member after does

[dusk pumice]

Hmm.. C- c- can you send me any sample code?

Umm... If you don't want to you don't have to.

[vocal plover]

@bot.listen()
async def on_member_update(before, after):
  if before.guild.premium_subscriber_role not in before.roles and before.guild.premium_subscriber_role in after.roles:
    # The member just boosted

[dusk pumice]

Ohh!! Thank you..

So @bot.command()was worng. It was !bot.listen()

[dusk pumice]

You are really good helper Ale!

[sweet pilot]

this works too right?

@bot.listen()
async def on_member_update(before, after):
     if {before.guild.premium_subscriber_role,} == (set(after.roles) - set(before.roles)):
          # do the stuff

[dusk pumice]

How do I set premium subscriber role???

[vocal plover]

you cant

its an attribute of the guild that discord defines

[lament mesa]

yea

[dusk pumice]

Ok.

Than I don't have to set the role?

[vocal plover]

nope

[sweet pilot]

you don't need to

[elfin quest]

hello

[dusk pumice]

Ok%%

[sweet pilot]

it defaults to server booster role

[dusk pumice]

Kk thanks

wanna get banned?

my name is @elfin quest

Hello, do you need moderation assistance?

[dusk pumice]

[dusk pumice]

He don't need to I guess

[arctic python]

@elfin quest Do you?

[dusk pumice]

Why you pinged mods?

[elfin quest]

yes

[arctic python]

What do you need?

[dusk pumice]

Kinde mods

[sweet pilot]

he's new to discord I think

[arctic python]

It's possible.

[sweet pilot]

idk, his profile says so

when you click on him

[dusk pumice]

Well it maybe

but it's not good to ping mods with little problems

[dusk pumice]

Haha I also see his profile

[sweet pilot]

for me personally, I didn't knew it was bad to ping when I first came to discord

I mean unnessary pings

[arctic python]

@elfin quest Only ping moderators if you need help with someone breaking the rules or code of conduct of the server. If you need help with Python, you can ask in #python-discussion or one of the topical channels, or you can check out #❓｜how-to-get-help.

[dusk pumice]

haha me too. I evan didn't know what mod is!

[sweet pilot]

maybe it's an alt account used to spam servers

dk for sure

[arctic python]

Pinging moderators is fine if you actually need a moderator. That's why the role is pingable.

[dusk pumice]

let's go to #ot2-never-nester’s-nightmare and talk @sweet pilot

[arctic python]

But we have a lot to do, so we prefer if you don't waste our time unnecessarily.

hey is there any way to make my repo public and only my token file private?

[reef shell]

use gitignore

[errant abyss]

how?

where do i place gitignore?

[reef shell]

https://www.pluralsight.com/guides/how-to-use-gitignore-file

[errant abyss]

ahhh man made a bot now it says it's offline

i don't have an 'on_ready()' function in my code. is that the problem?

[unreal silo]

no

[errant abyss]

then why's it offline?

yall got any common error fixes?

client.login() maybe? i don't have that either

[boreal ravine]

no

[boreal ravine]

It's client.run() and yes you need that to be able to make the bot online

[errant abyss]

i got that

lemme check with my tokens and stuff

[boreal ravine]

Yes, client.run("YOUR_TOKEN")

[errant abyss]

i fixed my token issue. now the bot's online but my commands ain't working 😭😭

now it's back offline

[unreal silo]

follow the tutorial properly, cba to get into this

[errant abyss]

should i try repl.it instead of Heroku?

[maiden fable]

Both are bad tho

[errant abyss]

oh

imma try turning on automatic deploys on Heroku

oh, ok, now it works

i had to change my token in my repo

[haughty sedge]

hi if my bot is running from one place and i re-generate a token will my bot be stopped from there? if yes then amazing else F

[errant abyss]

but auto deploy was turned off in Heroku

now i turned it on, now works well

[haughty sedge]

yes or no

[maiden fable]

It will stop

[haughty sedge]

alright thanks

[boreal ravine]

can tasks.loop have parameters?

[slate swan]

no

just use loop.create_task if you want some parameters to be passed

[boreal ravine]

hm

[boreal ravine]

if I created the task like that would it automatically run the task or no

[valid niche]

due to the fact that with every request you send, you must send your token, it will stop working right away

[slate swan]

it would, assuming your loop is running, which it is

[boreal ravine]

hm

[valid niche]

https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloop.html

all about the loop

[slate swan]

keep in mind just use an infinite loop if you want it to persist

[valid niche]

make your async function a while True or similar

[boreal ravine]

why

[boreal ravine]

does the lib support cog support for that yet?

[slate swan]

hello,
so I am using github repo to host my bot
and i have a bot which plays sound files the thing is that the sound files are just on the repo and I was them to be in a folder named sound but when I put the files in sound its showing out of directory so how do I add the directory in my codes of sound folder these are the codes

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx: commands.Context):
    voice_channel: discord.VoiceChannel = ctx.author.voice.channel
    print(voice_channel.name)
    vc = await voice_channel.connect()
    vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("sound.mp3"))
    while vc.is_playing():
        time.sleep(.1)
    await vc.disconnect()```

[grim oar]

Have you tried putting its full path

[slate swan]

that is the thing how do I know the path

like even if I get it know where to enter

its like bot/main.py

[grim oar]

Uhh just copy the path and paste it in FFmpegPCMAudio?

[slate swan]

like bot/sounds/sound.mp3?

[grim oar]

Sure ig

[slate swan]

alr

[boreal ravine]

How do you host a bot on github?

[slate swan]

can you?

[visual island]

no

[boreal ravine]

^

[slate swan]

not hosting i am using github for the hosting services to get the coding file and requirements

[boreal ravine]

oh ok

[slate swan]

you can use replit, or local host

[final iron]

Theres a lot of reasons why you shouldn't host on repl.it

[gloomy quest]

like?

[supple thorn]

#discord-bots message

[final iron]

You should not use Repl.it to host your bot.

While this may seem like a nice and free service, it has a lot more caveats than you might think, such as:

• The machines are super underpowered.

• • This means your bot will lag a lot as it gets bigger.

• You need to run a webserver alongside your bot to prevent it from being shut off.

• • This isn't a trivial task, and eats more of the machines power.

• Repl.it uses an ephemeral file system.

• • This means any file you saved via your bot will be overwritten when you next launch.

• They use a shared IP for everything running on the service.
  This one is important - if someone is running a user bot on their service and gets banned, everyone on that IP will be banned. Including you.

Please avoid using repl.it to host your bot. It's not worth the trouble.

[boreal ravine]

• • This means any file you saved via your bot will be overwritten when you next launch.
    what type of file

[slate swan]

Also , they Didn't updated their Python version for a long time , it's still 3.8

[boreal ravine]

yes, 3.8.12

[slate swan]

ik

[slate swan]

I tried Sqlite and it gets reset everytime

[boreal ravine]

oh

I don't use any DB's

[slate swan]

how do I login into my discord bot?

using my token in discord bot client website? the website isnt loading idk why

[boreal ravine]

That's not allowed though

[slate swan]

i know

[boreal ravine]

Then it's still probably the websites fault

[slate swan]

Why is it required tho?

[boreal ravine]

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[slate swan]

not working

an api wrapper like discord.py would do all the things it can do

[slate swan]

to see in how many major servers is my bot is

[gloomy quest]

- They use a shared IP for everything running on the service. This one is important - if someone is running a user bot on their service and gets banned, everyone on that IP will be banned. Including you.

You mean on a single pc?

[slate swan]

just use client guilds to get a list of servers and check the member count or anything else you want to

[final iron]

No just on the same ip

[slate swan]

*client.guilds

so I atleast can show the other discord server mods that "look my bot is int server with 5k members" so they can take my bot in

[slate swan]

ohh

[gloomy quest]

so if anyones bot gets banned then mine gets banned too?

[boreal ravine]

• • This means your bot will lag a lot as it gets bigger.
    I doubt any big bots use replit

[final iron]

Yes

[slate swan]

They will remove your bot instead if they see you logging into it with that web~

[slate swan]

they use paid hosting like apex and stuff

It's a privacy breach

[boreal ravine]

yes

[final iron]

Yes because of this exact reason

[slate swan]

you can do self hosting and stuff

or open a hosting service by yourself

raspberry Pi , or there are many reliable services who provide web servers

[final iron]

You can just buy a raspberry pi if you're planning on hosting a medium sized bot

[gloomy quest]

Is heruko bettter than repl.it?

[slate swan]

yeh

[slate swan]

i have a bot which is in 100 servers and codes worth of 700 lines is it medium? or low

repl is more of a ide then hosting service

[slate swan]

idk heroku is working ok for my bot hosting

None of them are meant for bot hosting , so nah for both of them

yeah heroku is mostly use for web hosting and stuffs

[gloomy quest]

o h

[slate swan]

If you want free hosting you can try something like trial of google cloud or AWS

aws is paid right?

they give some trial period

[gloomy quest]

how do people run code in Visual Studio then?

[slate swan]

you can do it ofcourse , but it won't make your bot run 24*7 like they do in web servers

[slate swan]

use pycharm

[final iron]

I have no idea

[slate swan]

hmmm

[gloomy quest]

then how long does it run

[final iron]

You literally just press the run button

[gloomy quest]

o k

[slate swan]

what you can do is take a cheap mini laptop and than install pycharm or any other code editor and paste the codes and click run

and also install packages and path

[slate swan]

As long as you have internet connection , and you don't close vsc or use the pause button

and BOOM you are doing a self-hosting for free

[gloomy quest]

o

[gloomy quest]

mini?

[slate swan]

I self-hosted a bot for a week on my pc

with some downtimes ofc

how do I add space after the command like

@bot.command()
async def help <words>(ctx):
 await ctx.send('commands')

so the thing is suppose i have 2 help commands of different category
1 help show image commands and 2nd video help commands so how do I make the help command use space
!help videos or !help image

when I put space after help and type something it shows syntax error

is there a way to make my discord bot look like its on phone

[gloomy quest]

use another input variable

[slate swan]

no , not without monkey patching it it's not suggested to do so since it may break stuff

[gloomy quest]

and do an if command

[steep estuary]

how to ignore @ everyone and @ here in user.mentioned_in(message) ?

i have afk commands

which also reply user when mentioned @ here or @ everyone

:/

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.group

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.group

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

[final iron]

No

[slate swan]

Use a command group

[steep estuary]

me ? :/

[slate swan]

It was for panda

[steep estuary]

okk

and me :(

[slate swan]

not even with user agents?

text to appear

[leaden anvil]

ok I will try that

[slate swan]

Well it returns true by default , you can probably try py if user in message.mentions

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[steep estuary]

??

it also worksbut the prblm is it react in @ everyone and @ here also

[slate swan]

I don't think you can change it , user.mentioned_in does not check if a particular user obiect is mentioned
It can be roles and everyone/here roles as well

[steep estuary]

can i check if message.content have everyone or here?

[steep estuary]

or just tell pls that can i check if someone reply a user

if the ping is a reply?

[slate swan]

.

[steep estuary]

but i don't want everyone and here

i have a option to use <@!userid>

but if i will use it it will not react in replies :/

[leaden anvil]

how to show a part of a webpage ? like for in you tubes case a video

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.get_role > Getting the role

[boreal ravine]

What params?

u only need context or ctx lol

[dim cedar]

like i wanna input the current role name thn input i name i want it to change to

=Edit_role HI BYE

[dim cedar]

[boreal ravine]

Add an arg beside ctx I guess?

[dim cedar]

can u type it for me?

[boreal ravine]

maybe learn more python

[dim cedar]

hmm

[boreal ravine]

functions helped me learn more about arguments

[dim cedar]

working on it

but i wanna quick solve now

it s urgent

[boreal ravine]

!e

def function(role, new_name):
  print(f"Role: {role}\nRenamed To: {new_name}")

print(function("Member", "Cool Kid"))

like that

[boreal ravine]

ctx: commands.Context, role: discord.Role, *, name:str) lol

[leaden anvil]

then how is the video playable in discord ?

[fair axle]

anyone know how to send dms using dislash.py

[boreal ravine]

maybe because discord made it that way? idrk lol

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Member.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.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**.

[fair axle]

or do we have to stick to the old fashioned way

[fair axle]

i am talking about dislash

[boreal ravine]

so?

its the same lol

nothing changes about discord.Member.send in discord.py and dislash

[fair axle]

is there anyway to send a dm only using dislash not discord

[boreal ravine]

@fair axle most things dont change

[fair axle]

k thanks bye

[boreal ravine]

just support for slash commands and stuff lol

No problem helping you solve your question

👍

[slate swan]

just use pycord

[hasty iron]

no

[tawny lodge]

hi, is it possible to trigger a link in an embed to perform a function instead of it being an url link?

[cloud dawn]

Like actually change the content inside the embed? What are you getting at.

[tawny lodge]

no edit the embed

[cloud dawn]

change the content = edit, so i guess were on the same page.

[tawny lodge]

like...i do a search of my sql database...it returns 20 matches in an embed..i'dlike to be able to click on the one i want and have it trigger a function

like having it a url link...but not a link, have it trigger foo function instead

[cloud dawn]

Why not just use a paginator. You can do your idea but you'd always need to open the webpage.

[tawny lodge]

example...enbed has 3 choices(links)..clicking on one would send 'you clicked this one' to chat

no buttons, emoji reactions, but clicking the actual content in the embed

[cloud dawn]

Like i said you can do that but then a webpage would always open, not to mention the amount of effort it would take to create such a thing.

I can't see a method without overengineering the crap out of an embed.

[vocal plover]

because youre missing access for what youre trying to do

[slate swan]

Hey how can I make like if someone votes my bot then the bot will dm them automatically whenever they vote

[slate swan]

Disnake

[cloud dawn]

Alec could you maby help out over at #help-cheese ?

[trail breach]

discord.Status

doesnt work for me

??

[celest marlin]

yeah top.gg has a library for that

[trail breach]

@bot.command()
async def challenge(ctx, member: Member):
    if str(member.status).lower() == discord.Status.online:
        return
    if str(member.status).lower() == discord.Status.dnd:
        await ctx.send("Hmm, it appears they don't wish to be disturbed.")
    if str(member.status).lower() == discord.Status.idle:
        await ctx.send("Hmm, The person you have challenged is idle")
    if str(member.status).lower() == discord.Status.offline:
        await ctx.send("Hmm, it appears they'r offline.")

[vocal plover]

do you have presence intents enabled?

[trail breach]

no matter the status it will send Hmm, it appears they'r offline.

[slate swan]

Ok, where can I get that?

[trail breach]

no idts

[slate swan]

anyone know how to implement buttons? I looked in the docs and I dont think they have it there yet

https://discord.com/api/v9/channels/{gcID}/call/ring

why does a post request to this not work

[vocal plover]

bots cant interact with groupchats

[slate swan]

oh wait

yeh i realised

[slate swan]

if i was to use a user token to send that request would it count as selfbotting

[vocal plover]

yes

[trail breach]

can u tell me how to ddo so??

Would it be okay if I move all my bot events to a separate file, and then later make my code run that file? I have too many events and just wanted to tidy my main bot file up

[hardy yoke]

Yes
ideally you want as little as possible in your main.py file. The less you have in there the less you need to restart your bot when you change something (Important once it's big enough/you start caching things, etc)

in cogs you just use @commands.Cog.listener() instead of @bot.event/@client.event

[slate swan]

Thanks!

Per Python Discord's Rule 5, we are unable to assist with questions related to youtube-dl, pytube, or other YouTube video downloaders as their usage violates YouTube's Terms of Service.

For reference, this usage is covered by the following clauses in YouTube's TOS, as of 2021-03-17:

The following restrictions apply to your use of the Service. You are not allowed to:

1. access, reproduce, download, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, alter, modify or otherwise use any part of the Service or any Content except: (a) as specifically permitted by the Service;  (b) with prior written permission from YouTube and, if applicable, the respective rights holders; or (c) as permitted by applicable law;

3. access the Service using any automated means (such as robots, botnets or scrapers) except: (a) in the case of public search engines, in accordance with YouTube’s robots.txt file; (b) with YouTube’s prior written permission; or (c) as permitted by applicable law;

9. use the Service to view or listen to Content other than for personal, non-commercial use (for example, you may not publicly screen videos or stream music from the Service)

[hollow trail]

wavelink was a better alternative, but its not maintained anymore. There a small "forks" or librarys which are based off wavelink, for example https://github.com/cloudwithax/pomice . But in the moment youtube-dl is the way to go I think.

[gaunt herald]

How can i add currency system to my bot

[odd pendant]

you should do some research into databases

[gaunt herald]

How

[odd pendant]

Well research different types of databases and find one that you like best, i'd recommend postgresql

then look at how it's implemented in python and then a basic economy system just consists of storing currency data about individual users

[gaunt herald]

Ok

Thanks

why it gives an error

[slate swan]

@cleint.command()

[odd pendant]

because your error handler is inside of your command, and you have wong indentation for async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as cs:

[slate swan]

Mention if you know

[fringe void]

A good example for a free vps?

[odd pendant]

maybe try renaming the lambda inter to like lambda i, i'm sure i've had this issue before i forgot how i sorted it

[odd pendant]

since you have a variable called inter

[slate swan]

Bro, thanks LOL

[odd pendant]

none really, if you want solid hosting you need to pay

[slate swan]

Worked like a charm

[odd pendant]

sweet 👍

[fringe void]

i dony want a solid one

[odd pendant]

solid being anything that's actually viable for discord bots

[slate swan]

Nevermind, still got the same thing, PyCharm was just tripping for a second

[odd pendant]

pahaha, does it give you any suggestions?

[slate swan]

Nope, still the same thing

Also tried the suggestion thing but then it just gives me this https://retard.work/​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌

I have an idea on why it's doing it, but if I don't have that part in the code the rest doesn't work

[odd pendant]

i'm not sure, that's just pycharm being pycharm. it's probably a super simple fix

[lyric moat]

no error but command would not respond

@client.command()
async def nsfw(ctx):
  embed = discord.Embed(title="test", description="test")
  async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as cs:
    async with cs.get('https://www.reddit.com/r/nsfw/new.json?sort=hot') as r:
      res = await r.json()
    embed.set_image(url=res['data']['children'] [random.randint(0, 25)]['data']['url'])
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[slate swan]

Yeah but I can't seem to figure it out and it's annoying because it's my shitty messy code to test a kind of working Ticket system

And I need it for my server

[odd pendant]

does the code still work though? it's only a warning

[slate swan]

Well the only command in it works, but the @command.Cog.listener() doesn't, which is all the code to make the buttons work etc

[slate swan]

every warning shouldnt block the code, but if the warning was right, the problem is in your code and itll block the execution of your bot

So people can use it to open/close a ticket

[slate swan]

yeah i know this, and I do know what the problem is but without it the bot wouldn't work and I have no idea on how else I could do it since it requires me to use ComponentsBot

And I can't like put it in my main file because that would block out the rest of my bot

[slate swan]

It's not like it's working right now tho

if your bot needs it and it blocks your bots execution, theres no other way than finding a workaround or just using another library for it, the easiest thing to do is to just delete the feature if its necessarily required for your bot but is blocking the execution of your bot without any fix

I haven't found a workaround yet, but maybe you have an idea

i have never worked with componentsbot

Neither have I, this is my first time too

so perhaps there should be someone to assist you otehr than me

[slate swan]

I hope so

you can try asking in #python-discussion

or making a help channel

[digital slate]

hello
how to create dashboard for my bot.
With login and communication from web to bot

[quasi pawn]

what do these errors mean

[odd pendant]

you'd need to use auth for discord and ipc

[digital slate]

auth??

[odd pendant]

well you'll need to use auth to let users login

[digital slate]

idk how to do it

[odd pendant]

you'll need to research then

[digital slate]

what should i search

[odd pendant]

what web framework do you want to use?

[boreal ravine]

this isnt where Context is located tho

[stark bobcat]

wym

[boreal ravine]

What do I mean?

I'm saying that ur error has nothing to do with that command I guess

[odd pendant]

the problem isnt in your ban command

[stark bobcat]

oh

[odd pendant]

you have Context somewhere and it's not defined

[stark bobcat]

oh

what are you using it for

[haughty sedge]

um

in @client.event on_ready

whenever bot goes online it messages me (i host bot on repl.it so it reboots every 9 hour or so)

temporarily hosting there, ill buy a hosting service once discord verifies my bot (verf unlocked tho)

its a weird error i rarely get

guys why does this not show anything?

no errors and no message

[haughty sedge]

it will be await ctx.send or await ctx.reply if u wanna reply

[upbeat otter]

i tried that too

nothing happens

[haughty sedge]

oh hmm

tried without content=None

[upbeat otter]

it isnt giving me CommandNotFound error

[odd pendant]

you could use appinfo py bot.appinfo = await bot.application_info() await bot.appinfo.owner.send("x")

[upbeat otter]

yep

[haughty sedge]

alright ty

[upbeat otter]

anyone can help 🥲

[upbeat otter]

with this

[soft belfry]

how can I check if the message has a text?

[upbeat otter]

like?

[soft belfry]

if message.content != None or message.content == "":

this doesnt do the trick

[upbeat otter]

sure, wait

[slate swan]

message will always have text, what do you mean

[soft belfry]

attachment only messages

[upbeat otter]

try this

if len(message.attachments)==0:
     #do stuff

[soft belfry]

wait

[upbeat otter]

this will check if the message doesnt has text

[soft belfry]

no wait

checking for actual text

[odd pendant]

no it won't, that will check if the message has no attachments

attachments and message content aren't the same

[upbeat otter]

@soft belfry

change the operator

dont

xD

[slate swan]

💀

[upbeat otter]

it was fine

[soft belfry]

works when if len(message.content)!=0:

[upbeat otter]

sure

[soft belfry]

thank you

[upbeat otter]

welcome sire

[soft belfry]

ah one more thing

[odd pendant]

you could probably do py if len(message.attachments) > 0 and not message.content:

[soft belfry]

why tho if the shorter works

[odd pendant]

you said you want to check if a message has no text?

[upbeat otter]

if it does

it should be ==

not !=

[odd pendant]

you can have messages with attachments and no message content

[soft belfry]

!= is right

[upbeat otter]

idk

[odd pendant]

checking just for attachments doesn't check for text lol but okay

[upbeat otter]

i need help too 🥲

but can I send all the attachments at once using webhooks?

[odd pendant]

requests is blocking, use aiohttp

[upbeat otter]

it was working fine when it was a normal program

now i changed it to bot code

[odd pendant]

yes but requests is still blocking, use aiohttp

[upbeat otter]

how do i use that lol, i need to check

[odd pendant]

look at aiohttp.ClientSession

[slate swan]

well for one, pretty sure you have to convert e to str

[upbeat otter]

e?

where?

[upbeat otter]

ah okay

[slate swan]

except Exception as e:
  print(e)

[upbeat otter]

so?

its the same

[stiff nexus]

logger = logging.getLogger('discord')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

logger.addHandler(handler)
``` how do i send this in a webhook?

[upbeat otter]

I am confused how to use aiohttp

🥲

[odd pendant]

have you even researched it lmao

the first google result shows a perfect example

[upbeat otter]

ofc

what.....

[slate swan]

well last time I tried printing an error without converting it to a string first it gave me an error so

[upbeat otter]

ah

[odd pendant]

https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/client_reference.html

[upbeat otter]

okee thank you XD

[haughty sedge]

hey can anyone tell me abt discord rate limit for messages per minute

[upbeat otter]

ah well...it worked when I removed the try and exception statemnets lol

[upbeat otter]

its 10 per second ig

[haughty sedge]

minute?

in same channel

[upbeat otter]

otherwise ask someone who knows exactly

[haughty sedge]

hmm k

[upbeat otter]

Me dumb

[odd pendant]

yeh it's bad to use plain except Exception because it will catch any error, it's better practise to only block errors which you expect

[upbeat otter]

Ye bro, thank you for your time

[lyric moat]

no error but command would not respond

@client.command()
async def nsfw(ctx):
  embed = discord.Embed(title="test", description="test")

    embed.set_image(url=res['data']['children'] [random.randint(0, 25)]['data']['url'])
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[celest pelican]

can somone explain me why my discord bot can't join a voice channel?

[odd pendant]

put a print at the top of the command to see if it's actually being registered

[cloud dawn]

Well not copying code is a start.

[celest pelican]

?

[cloud dawn]

pass_context has been deprecated for like 4 years.

[celest pelican]

mate I tried 5 differents things and nothing is working

[celest pelican]

lol

[oak warren]

its await ctx.author.voice.channel.connect()

[celest pelican]

still not working

[oak warren]

what dpy version ?

[celest pelican]

3.9.7

[oak warren]

huh ?

[slate swan]

thats your python version isnt it

[oak warren]

^^

[celest pelican]

yeah?

[oak warren]

await ctx.author.voice.channel.connect() works for me

i asked dpy version

print(discord.__version__)

[celest pelican]

it is 1.7.3

[lyric moat]

wym

[celest pelican]

weird

[oak warren]

its even in the docs

[cloud dawn]

What does it say?

[celest pelican]

nothing it just doesn't join

[cloud dawn]

debug it

[oak warren]

i mean its in the examples https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/basic_voice.py

[celest pelican]

but I know that the code is right and I've setted the permissions for the bot also right

open the file and read it

[final iron]

Don't copy old code

It wont work most of the time

[grim oar]

z = 10
y = 15
input('which is bigger z or y guess?')
if input = ('z'):
print('wrong')
else:
print ('correct')

im trying to get the bot to play a guessing game i have much more of the script but this is where the focused problem is

[odd pendant]

not discord.py related but you need to assign the input to a variable so user_input = int(input('which is bigger z or y guess?'))

then if user_input == z:

[grim oar]

File 'main.py', line 17
if user_input == z:

IndentationError

[odd pendant]

you need to indent it properly

[final iron]

You can't get user input like that

[forest blade]

input will block the script, you are going to want wait_for

[queen dagger]

hi, so i have a while loop, gathering information from an API. and once its running no one else can run commands or myself. any fixes?

[odd pendant]

could you show us the code

because requests is blocking, look at aiohttp.ClientSession for your requests

[queen dagger]

ok

[sage locust]

Soz I got a loop that reads reaction to a post that I am using to store statistics. This works great; however, I want to capture replies to my bot's posts and use them as feedback. I can't seem to locate any documentation on how to achieve that.

I do seem message.channel.last_message.reference.message_id but this would mean I have to read the entire channel history and pick out the matching reference IDs... Hoping there is a better way.

[sick birch]

Maybe on message coupled with an if that checks if it’s a reply

[slate swan]

someone help me pls

[crisp hull]

await channel.send (f'Welcome to the Server ' {ctx.author.name} ' to ' {ctx.guild.name} ' Have fun!')```

Try this

[crisp hull]

Give me a sec

[slate swan]

okay

[crisp hull]

Burh

@slate swan You don't even have ctx there

So just do:

await channel.send (f'Welcome to the Server ' {member.mention} ' to ' {member.guild.name} ' Have fun!')

This should work

[runic jackal]

if I have a link as an example, how do you do it that the last 10 characters are automatically removed?

[crisp hull]

What do you mean by that @runic jackal?

[runic jackal]

for example under this link:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/avatars/706884094856003655/dde97c79831663846a623fa220947b86.webp?size=1024

the last 10 characters are removed

[crisp hull]

So you want to remove the "?size=1024"

[crisp hull]

Can you hover over it with your mouse and show what it says?

[runic jackal]

yes

[sage locust]

Huh, maybe

[crisp hull]

@runic jackal You have to give me your context. Does the bot has to do that?

[sage locust]

I’ll look into that thanks

[crisp hull]

Like the user sends a link and the bot just removes the last 10 letters?

[slate swan]

wdym

[runic jackal]

bei einem bestimmten command soll die avatar url auf diese weise gekürzt werden

[crisp hull]

nvm
Just try this:

await channel.send (f'Welcome to the Server {member.mention} to {member.guild.name} Have fun!')

[crisp hull]

Also als Beispiel

Jemand macht !avatar
Dann schickt der Bot den Link des Avatares rein, aber die letzten 10 Buchstaben sollen gelöscht werden?

[runic jackal]

ausversehen auf deutsch geschrieben xD

[runic jackal]

ja

[crisp hull]

passt schon

Wieso machst du's nicht einfach mit embeds? Dann brauchst du den Link garnicht und das Bild wird sofort angezeigt @runic jackal

Schau, wie hier

[runic jackal]

weil ich den link noch für eine api verwenden möchte, und die api akzeptiert nur links ohne die letzten 10 zeichen

also ohne das "?size=1024"

[crisp hull]

ich verstehe

Wird der Link in eine Variable gespeichert?

[runic jackal]

ja

[slate swan]

i think its correct

[crisp hull]

Dann könntest du folgendes versuchen:

av_link = https://blablabla

print(av_link[:-10])```

Das wäre jetzt zum printen. Ich weiß jz nicht genau was du damit vor hast

Allerdings bin ich mir ehrlich gesagt nicht ganz sicher ob das nur mit Strings geht. Und auch nicht, ob links als Strings gelten...
Im Prinzip denke ich schon. Das müsstest du dann testen. Wenn's nicht geht musst du den Link in einen String umwandeln und dann die 10 Characters wie oben gezeigt löschen

@runic jackal

[crisp hull]

perfect

[runic jackal]

Danke, Funktioniert ^^

[crisp hull]

Kein Ding^^ Mache ich gerne

is there a way i can add a pause to a command output? without freezing the entire bot? what id like to do is make something like py await ctx.send(f'message 1') time.sleep(5) await ctx.send(f'message 2') but without freezing the whole bot, just delaying the second output. i can provide more detail if needed

[hasty iron]

!d asyncio.sleep

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.sleep

coroutine asyncio.sleep(delay, result=None)```
Block for *delay* seconds.

If *result* is provided, it is returned to the caller when the coroutine completes.

`sleep()` always suspends the current task, allowing other tasks to run.

Setting the delay to 0 provides an optimized path to allow other tasks to run. This can be used by long-running functions to avoid blocking the event loop for the full duration of the function call.

Deprecated since version 3.8, removed in version 3.10: The `loop` parameter. This function has been implicitly getting the current running loop since 3.7. See [What’s New in 3.10’s Removed section](https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.10.html#whatsnew310-removed) for more information.

thanks

How can i add reaction?

It says Unknown emoji

i tried :white_check_mark.: too (without the dot)

[reef shell]

You need to use this format <:emoji_name:emoji_id>

and <a:emoji_name:emoji_id> if the emoji is animated

[cloud folio]

and where can i find emoji id?

[reef shell]

also you can get the emoji and use its string

copy the emoji link and there should be an id in the url iirc

[cloud folio]

ok

thanks

[reef shell]

wait

There is a much simpler way

just use \ before the emoji and send it

It'll give you the format i told you

!this

[cloud folio]

like /white_check_mark?

or wdym?

[reef shell]

no i meant for getting the id

[slate swan]

Was seeing what you guys thought the best method for this would be. I'm trying to check posts in a certain channel for a list of emojis on a post..

For example. I have people add 🇨 🇺 🇲 to posts sometimes. I want to check if those letter are there and if they are delete them

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**...

[reef shell]

Use this to get what reaction is someone adding and do further execution according to it

[slate swan]

so it's not just one reaction but multiple

if they just add 🇨 for example then do nothing

[cloud folio]

can you give me an example please?

[reef shell]

You asked how to get the id of an emoji.
So there is a way you can get it quickly.
Like you send \ and you will get the name and id of that emoji (!this) in that text after you send it in a channel

\ - !thinkmon

[shut gorge]

Can I have events within commands? Or is that bad practice?

[reef shell]

Bad practice

Why would you need that tho

[cloud folio]

the id is always different

[shut gorge]

I want my bot to accept input from the user

Maybe I just do not understand

Thanks tho

[cloud folio]

i did :white_check_mark.:

with \ before it

[reef shell]

Oh that is possible

You need to use bot.wait_for

[shut gorge]

How?

Thank you

[reef shell]

If the emoji is an unicode emoji then you need to use unicode string of that emoji

"\U00002705"

[cloud folio]

where did you find that?

[reef shell]

I use R.Danny to find that

It's a bot

[cloud folio]

i see

mmm, interesting

thanks

[main quarry]

You can also use unicompact

And going to character details

[slate swan]

im testing my error handler, this is what i currently have.

#role
@bot.command('role')
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True) #permissions
async def role(ctx, user : discord.Member, role : discord.Role):

  if role.position > ctx.author.top_role.position:
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f'Error', description=f'![atick](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/893529433116389416.webp?size=128 "atick") This role is above your highest role!', color=0x2f3136)
    return await ctx.send(embed=embed) 

  if role in user.roles:
      await user.remove_roles(role)
      await ctx.send(f"Removed `{role}` from {user.mention}")

  else:
      await user.add_roles(role)
      await ctx.send(f"Added `{role}` to {user.mention}") 

@role.error
async def role_error(error, ctx):
    if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
        embed = discord.Embed(title=f'Error', description=f'![atick](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/893529433116389416.webp?size=128 "atick") ^role  [Member]  [Role]')
        await ctx.reply(embed=embed)
    if isinstance(error, MissingPermissions):
        embed = discord.Embed(title=f'Error', description=f'![atick](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/893529433116389416.webp?size=128 "atick") I do not have permission to manage this role', color=0x2f3136)
        await ctx.reply(embed=embed)```

but when i test it, i get no output

for any of the errors (missing args and missing perms)

how can i get the creator of a channel in audit logs

!d discord.AuditLogAction
