[cloud folio]

how can i add this reactions to the message (embed) that the bot will send?

[slate swan]

        embed = await ctx.send(embed=embed)
        await embed.add_reaction('✅')
        await embed.add_reaction('❎')```

[cloud folio]

Thanks

[outer violet]

How do you get the message id of every message for a mod log?

[slate swan]

how to remove all of 1 emoji on a post

so if there are 10 emojis wipe the given one

anyone have a method for this

?

How can you just remove all of 1 reaction on a post.

like if there are 20 of 1 reaction how can I remove only those 20 and leave the others

[sterile rose]

I found some code for a personal use music bot, but the play function doesn't work and it keeps giving an exception. anyone see what's wrong?

[slate swan]

how would i make it so instead of this only using one server/guild, it uses all of them that it's in?
guild = bot.get_guild(guildid)

[slate swan]

do you have ffmpeg

in it's directory

[sterile rose]

yes in bin in the environment

[slate swan]

hmmm

i don't know

mind if i dm you a kinda crappy music bot i made a while ago?

[sterile rose]

go ahead

[slate swan]

wr

[brittle ingot]

this is just renaming the embed object to a message object. It will work but is bad practice as it can get confusing.

msg = await ctx.send(embed=embed)
emojis = ['✅', '❎']
for emoji in emojis:
    await msg.add_reaction(emoji)

or just

msg = await ctx.send(embed=embed)
await msg.add_reaction('✅')
await msg.add_reaction('❎')

[outer violet]

How do you get the message id of every message for a mod log?

[brittle ingot]

like when a message is deleted?

or edited?

[slate swan]

i still need help with this if anyone can help lmao

[weak shadow]

you need a command to get all your server guilds?

[slate swan]

uh

not exactly

[weak shadow]

i dont understand what u r asking

[slate swan]

i have a command and i want it to get members from all server guilds

if that makes sense

[weak shadow]

so

you want it to list all the members from every guild?

[slate swan]

yeah ig

that works

[weak shadow]

like the total number or literally every single member

[slate swan]

each member

my bot is private so it's not a lot

[slate phoenix]

bot.users

[lofty heron]

hi i want my bot to run a command i've made on start, how can i do that?

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def on_ready():

[lofty heron]

uh ik that

[slate swan]

oh wait

i misread what you said

my bad

[lofty heron]

kekw

[slate swan]

wouldn't you just type in the name you defined for the command

[lofty heron]

oh hmm

[slate phoenix]

well you wouldn't have it as a command you would have it as a function but why not just paste the command code in on_ready?

[outer violet]

How do you make a footer like this? Like would I add another text=“” in the footer?

[slate phoenix]

\n

client.run(config.TOKEN)```

im need help

[slate phoenix]

is this the main file for the bot?

[slate swan]

yes

[slate phoenix]

none of this is right, why are you subclassing discord.Client?

[slate swan]

class MyClient(discord.Client):
    async def on_message(self, message):
        if message.author == self.user:
            return

        if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
            await message.channel.send('Hello World!')```

it is written in the manual

[slate phoenix]

A basic bot would look like this

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

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

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
  await ctx.send("Pong!")


bot.run("TOKEN")

[slate phoenix]

the one you're talking about is not for bots

[slate swan]

this is discord.py in github

[slate phoenix]

I know but your code is not for discord bots

[slate swan]

thanks

help

me

not really

[manic laurel]

i just want to make sure

is using discord.py on your own account against tos

cus i made a command for purging my messages and archiving groupchats / channels

[slate phoenix]

yes self botting is against tos and can get your account deleted

[outer violet]

would this be right? im trya do this embed.set_footer(text=f"Author: {message.author.id}", text=f"Message: str{message.id}")

[zinc geyser]

How do I change the new profile settings like the "About me" or the pfp banner for a bot

[outer violet]

For the about me, go to the dev portal and go to your bot app, you’ll see a description that you can add

[zinc geyser]

So the About me is just the desc

[outer violet]

Yeah

[zinc geyser]

kk

thx

[fading harness]

hi how can i check that if author top role is higher than target top role

[paper bane]

!d discord.Member.top_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.top\_role

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

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

[paper bane]

you can check if its > the target's top_role

[fading harness]

can you give me a example

i use an if

[paper bane]

if author.top_role > target.top_role:

[fading harness]

and i want to check that

the author has the kick_members permission or not

[outer violet]

Can someone help

[paper bane]

If this is a command you can use the has_permissions decorator

[fading harness]

i use if too

[paper bane]

You don't have to if this is in a command otherwise, you can manually check if author.guild_permissions.kick_members is True

[fading harness]

and i want to do these statement

[paper bane]

you can't use the same kwarg twice, it should be in 1 string

[fading harness]

but i want to check the bot

not the author

[outer violet]

Then how should I do it ?

[paper bane]

then check the guild_permissions of the bot's member object instead

[paper bane]

embed.set_footer(text=f"Author: {message.author.id} | Message: str{message.id}")

[outer violet]

Okay

[fading harness]

but can you give me the code

[paper bane]

its the same as i did

just change author for the bot's member object

[fading harness]

like if bot.guild_permissions.kick_members is True

???

[paper bane]

well, is bot defined?

[fading harness]

@bot.command

[paper bane]

Why do you want to use If statements instead of the decorators

[fading harness]

to send message to the member to know which error occured

[paper bane]

That sounds like a job for error handlers

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html?highlight=error handler#error-handling

It will let you do the same thing in a much neater way

instead of checking for each condition in a chain of if-statements

[outer violet]

how do i make an embed that has the discord random colors implemented have the same colors as another embed that also has discord random colors?

[bright palm]

Just assign the first random color to a variable

[honest wing]

How could I make a command to say the number of lines in a JSON file.

[slate phoenix]

No you would do it like this embed.set_footer(text=f"Author: {message.author.id}\nMessage: str{message.id}")

[steel trench]

What do you mean by "hidden messages"?

Oh idk how to get it like that

Woah

Tanks

[honest wing]

How could I remove that line it sent?

[dapper cobalt]

What account does that generate?

No self if it's not in a class.

And also hidden messages work only with interaction replies, not normal meessages.

[honest wing]

how does that matter, i just need help removing a line

[dapper cobalt]

What line? And also, it does matter.

!rule 5 Some accounts generators break this rule.

[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.

[honest wing]

It is not cracked accounts

[honest wing]

The line it takes idk how to explain it

[dapper cobalt]

The message it sends?

[honest wing]

Well, it's taking it from a TXT file, and then sending it

I want it to remove the line it takes from the TXT file

[dapper cobalt]

Can I see the _getline() function?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4710067/how-to-delete-a-specific-line-in-a-file I think this should help.

You loop through each line and if the line is equal to the line you want to delete, then don't write it.

[honest wing]

Alright

[dapper cobalt]

Basically, re-write every line in your file except the line you want to delete.

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def add(ctx,member: discord.Member = None):

    def check(message):
        return message.author == ctx.author and message.channel == ctx.channel
    await ctx.send("how much bananas do you want to give")
    message=await bot.wait_for('message', check=check)

    if not member:
        member = ctx.author
    await open_account(member)

    user = member
    users = await get_bank_data()

    await ctx.send(f"you have given the user {message.content} bananas")

    users[str(user.id)]["wallet"] += message.content```
how do i fix this error?

[dapper cobalt]

!e

names = ["Seif", "Scoopy"]
new_names = []
for name in names:
  if name == "Seif":
    continue
  else:
    new_names.append(name)

print(new_names)

[unkempt canyon]

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

['Scoopy']

[dapper cobalt]

What does users[str(user.id)]["wallet"] return?

Ah, there's 2 problems.

I believe it returns an int, and message.content is a str.

!e

num = 1
num += "1"
print(num)

[unkempt canyon]

@dapper cobalt :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
003 | TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +=: 'int' and 'str'

[slate swan]

that's uh

[dapper cobalt]

You cannot add a string to an int.

Do int(message.content).

[slate swan]

stuff to do with my json file that contains 'balances' for users

[slate swan]

oh ok ty

[dapper cobalt]

Also, in your check, add and message.content.isdigit().

[slate swan]

where at

[dapper cobalt]

In your check.

[slate swan]

wait my bad misread it

[dapper cobalt]

It will then check if the message.content can be converted into an int.

Since if it tries to int("s") for example it's going to raise an error.

[honest wing]

@dapper cobalt I can't even figure out how to start ngl

[dapper cobalt]

def _getline(command: str):
    with open(f"./{command}.txt", mode="r", encoding="utf-8") as file:
        lines = file.readlines()
        value = random.choice(lines)
        for line in lines:
          if line.split("\n") == value:
            continue
          else:

        for line in lines:
            new_file.write(line)
        new_file.close()
    return value

This should work.

[honest wing]

Command raised an exception: UnsupportedOperation: not writable

[dapper cobalt]

Print value.

[honest wing]

same error

nvm

i forgot to set it as writable

nvm still doesn't work

[graceful gulch]

int(message.content)

[honest wing]

Okay, so I got past that one error, but now when I run the command, it clears the whole TXT document and then sends

def _getline(command: str):
    with open(f"./{command}.txt", mode="wb+") as file:

            continue
          else:
            file.write(line)
        file.close()
    if command == "unban":

it is, but not for cracked accounts or anything like that

NFA?

Non full access?

[honest wing]

Okay?? LOL

[final iron]

Also the file name is literally althub

Like I said, it is a account generator but doesn't break ANY tos of any service.

[final iron]

Account generator for what?

[honest wing]

Why do I have to provide information to you?

[boreal ravine]

how about minecrafts tos?

[honest wing]

holy shit are desperate are you degens

[boreal ravine]

???

[final iron]

[honest wing]

nice

[boreal ravine]

it is

[final iron]

It's an account generator

[boreal ravine]

NFA = non full access

[final iron]

Literally what I said

[boreal ravine]

yes

SFA = semi full access and so on

[honest wing]

omg no way u figured that out!!

[boreal ravine]

we didnt need to

[honest wing]

literally battle.net accounts that I made and verified myself, doesn't break tos.

[final iron]

I wouldn't suggest you ask for anymore help with this project

[boreal ravine]

cool I guess

[final iron]

Nice

You banned me from your server

[honest wing]

I don't own it??

Ok bro

[boreal ravine]

[gloomy quest]

hi

How to use tenor api

(ping when answer pls)

[final iron]

That's a bit broad

[gloomy quest]

IKIK

But THATS the only API that im having confusion with

i even read the docs

but s t i l l

[final iron]

What are you having confusion with specifically

[gloomy quest]

how do i get the content

the gifs

I can do the random and sending part

But how do I get the gifs with my api key and search term and limit

[final iron]

I can't help you specifically with that but it's probably a popular API so someone will come eventually

[gloomy quest]

k

i feel someone is here

[unique breach]

anyone knows a way to use purge to delete certain number of messages from only one user?

[unique breach]

someone is

[gloomy quest]

hmph

[gloomy quest]

maybe do an if?

Idk tbh

[unique breach]

how tho?

[unique breach]

ohk

[gloomy quest]

like

message = ?????????? if message from ctx.author:

[unique breach]

but purge doesnt really work that way....

[gloomy quest]

yeah....

just an example...

[ocean leaf]

if i add an else statement, will it work?

[sick talon]

what are you trying to do ?

[sick talon]

are you trying to do this ?

If the user who is running the command doesn't have kick members perm then the bot should send some message ?

[ocean leaf]

yes

[gloomy quest]

Instead of permission you should write has_permissions

[sick talon]

oh then you can do this

if ctx.message.author.has_permissions.kick_members: 
#Rest of code (when the command user has kick members perm) 
else: 
#Rest of the code (when the command user doesn't have kick members perm)

Btw you can use error handlers as well

[gloomy quest]

ye

[slate phoenix]

It’s best to use the has_guild_permissions decorator

[gloomy quest]

oh

[finite nest]

There isn't really a telegram-bots channel here?

[ocean leaf]

ok

[gloomy quest]

i dont think so

[ocean leaf]

didnt work

[gloomy quest]

oh eah

yeah*

Its discord

Discord likes to annoy

so most of the attributes are never available

[slate swan]

did anyone add snekbox in their bot?

[ocean leaf]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[gloomy quest]

wut

[ocean leaf]

what shd i do

??

[gloomy quest]

i dunno anything about snekbot

[slate swan]

it's the module python bot uses to EVALUATE the codes

[gloomy quest]

how do I install it

[slate swan]

this one -https://github.com/python-discord/snekbox

[gloomy quest]

and how to import

[slate swan]

idk, i am asking same

[ocean leaf]

member has no attribute has_permission. so what does it have?

i think it is if ctx.author.has_guild_permission.kick_members

idk really

[slate swan]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64197902/command-object-has-no-attribute-has-permissions

[outer violet]

How do I make the actual channel mention tag show up cuz it’s just showing the channel id

[gloomy quest]

i d k

[valid perch]

I don't think you can mention in titles, so you will have to just use name. Otherwise try it in description

You need to run it within docker, then it has an api you can call with aiohttp.

@gloomy quest @slate swan

[slate swan]

lol would be very tiresome

[valid perch]

I mean if you want it, thats how its built

Although in saying that, you could likely request agaisnt the one pydis runs

[gloomy quest]

oh

why isnt the member purge working?

[valid perch]

Well, what does it currently do? How far does it run? Does it error?

[gloomy coral]

nope no errors

sends the error msg

i dont think check gets executed

[valid perch]

Can you add some print statements and see what it does

[midnight oyster]

Can you put links in embed titles?
Like [Text](httls:\\google.com)

bc that isnt working for me rn

[boreal ravine]

u can do title=title, url=url to do that

[midnight oyster]

oh, thanks!

[gloomy coral]

u can in desc

[gloomy coral]

where?

[queen dagger]

how would i create a channel thread using my bot?

[valid perch]

In your code

ok i changed it a bit

        if ctx.author.guild_permissions.manage_messages:

                await embed_message.delete(delay=3)

            else:

                embed_message2 = await ctx.send(

@valid perch

[valid perch]

And..?

What runs and what doesnt

[gloomy coral]

it shows msges deleted

but doesnt delete anything

[valid perch]

Which messages deleted..

Theres two

Your 'waiting' within a function that never gets called lol, fix your indentation

[gloomy coral]

nothing gets deleted

[valid perch]

I meant code wise. You have two different sections which could output the same thing

[gloomy coral]

the member part

i m not able to purge msges

from one member

[valid perch]

Weird, should work

Has the person you are trying to delete sent a message within the last (times)

[gloomy coral]

yeah ig

definately

[valid perch]

times is the amount of messages to look through, not amount to delete from the person

[gloomy coral]

oh

wait wht........

[valid perch]

Read the docs

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own. The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[gloomy coral]

i want !purge 4 @gloomy coral to delete my last 4 msges

[valid perch]

Likely gonna have to implement the search logic yourself ig

[gloomy coral]

i did....

mMmm

[gloomy coral]

Ok cool

Btw

can u fix my akinator command?

[valid perch]

Itll be expensive but you could loop over channel history and do checks yourself

[gloomy coral]

hmmm there has to be a better way tho

[valid perch]

[valid perch]

let me guess, akinator has no type Akinator or something?

akinator.Akinator() refers to your function. Since you defined it as akinator. Rename it or rename the import

Unless that isn't your issue, in which case do more then simply paste code, cheers.

!d random

[unkempt canyon]

random

Source code: Lib/random.py

This module implements pseudo-random number generators for various distributions.

For integers, there is uniform selection from a range. For sequences, there is uniform selection of a random element, a function to generate a random permutation of a list in-place, and a function for random sampling without replacement.

On the real line, there are functions to compute uniform, normal (Gaussian), lognormal, negative exponential, gamma, and beta distributions. For generating distributions of angles, the von Mises distribution is available.

Similar names: django.random

Can you define 'isnt working'

!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.

[valid perch]

Might help given formatting issues

[outer violet]

like when i do *ascii dk it doesnt send anything back

[valid perch]

Chur, I think the issue is your if

https://gyazo.com/df4af166bce0ebb3515cfd72dde8b42d

When it should be checking < (less then)

Currently your command only does things if the text is longer then 2000

Also your indentation on the last line is wrong, since its the same as the return

[outer violet]

yes that was the issues

ty :)

[slate swan]

And what does it give

[wintry shore]

Js and py are 2 different languages

[frigid apex]

ty i forgot how to do this

[leaden anvil]

ok so you can't import ?

[wintry shore]

Yes

[wintry shore]

Np

Bro u sure u know how languages work and what is js, json and py

Json is data
js is a programming language
py is a different programming language

json is "javascript object notation", u can call it a data object for js and u can also load json strings in python and dump them

how to delete all roles of a server?

[slate swan]

Loop through Guild.roles and use .delete() on each

[steep estuary]

for roles in message.guild.roles:
                await roles.delete()
``` not working :/

[slate swan]

Define 'not working'

[steep estuary]

it is showing invalid role

[slate swan]

Invalid role?

[steep estuary]

yes

[slate swan]

Maybe show the error

[sinful ridge]

:/

[slate swan]

Because you can't delete the default role (Guild.default_role)

[steep estuary]

ohh

then wht should i do?

cuz it comes underr all roles :/

[slate swan]

Not delete the role if it's the default role

Simple if statement

[tawdry perch]

Add if statement to see if role is default role

[steep estuary]

if roles == message.guild.default_role ?

[slate swan]

Try it and see

[steep estuary]

ok

ok done it worked ty :)

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

You could have just done py for role in message.guild.roles[1:]:
It saves u from using an if statement

[dapper cobalt]

True. Since the default role is the first in the guild's roles list. Means that its index number is 0.

As you never defined any client variable

TypeError: event() missing 1 required positional argument: 'coro'

async def on_message(msg):
    for word in filtered_words:
        if word in msg.content:
            await msg.delete()```

Please read what I wrote

[slate swan]

Where do you see any ()?

[silver wolf]

Just a helpful tip, add a return or break after await msg.delete(), because since ur looping, the first word could be in the content of the msg. the msg is then deleted, but since its a loop it checks it again, the message has already been deleted, and you'll end up getting a NotFound error

[slate swan]

I'd break, not return

[silver wolf]

i mean...doesnt really matter unless theres code after the for loop

[slate swan]

Probably want commands to work

thanks

Although I hope the command names are not in the swear words list

[slate swan]

async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.reply("pong")

@bot.command()
async def hi(ctx):
        await ctx.reply("hello!")

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)
async def kick(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
    await member.kick(reason=reason)
    await ctx.send(f"{member} was kicked!")```

Yeah

Don't forget to add await bot.process_commands(msg) at the end of your on_message event

well , using a list for bad word detection aint really a good idea , like it can be easily bypassed

and what do you offer me?

Use AI

or something like the Soundex algorithm

Although there will be quite a lot of false positive

[slate swan]

i don't know how make ai or algorithms

i need help i want when my bot send a message add a reaction

[dapper cobalt]

The message sent returns a discord.Message object, which has an add_reaction method.

!d discord.Message.add_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.add\_reaction

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

Add a reaction to the message.

The emoji may be a unicode emoji or a custom guild [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Emoji "discord.Emoji").

You must have the [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission to use this. If nobody else has reacted to the message using this emoji, the [`add_reactions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.add_reactions "discord.Permissions.add_reactions") permission is required.

[slate swan]

thanks

Just check the content of the message if it's exactly the bot's mention

[vernal osprey]

How do I do live timer using discord.py without making the bot sleep

@lyric needle help pls?

[slate swan]

Deleting messages, kinda cringe

[stone palm]

can someone give me an example of using try except for sending a response for a command
try:
except author missing permissions:

[slate swan]

Simply make the error happen

Then you get the error (e.g. CommandNotFound)

And you can do except <error>:

[stone palm]

i tried ```py
@commands.slash_command(
name="announce",
description="Announce something to everyone via the bot"
)
@commands.has_permissions(manage_guild=True)
async def announce(self, interaction,
channel: disnake.TextChannel=Param(description="The channel in which the announcement is to be sent"),
message: str=Param(description="The announcement that is to be sent")
):
try:
try:
embed=disnake.Embed(description=message, color=disnake.Color.blurple(), timestamp=interaction.created_at)
embed2=disnake.Embed(description=f"Announcement sent to {channel.mention}", color=disnake.Color.green(), timestamp=interaction.created_at)
embed2.set_author(name=interaction.author, icon_url=interaction.author.display_avatar.url)
await channel.send(embed=embed)
await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed2)
except commands.BotMissingPermissions:
await interaction.response.send_message(f"Something went wrong. Try checking if I have permissions to send messages in {channel.mention}")
except disnake.ext.commands.MisingPermissions([disnake.permissions.manage_guild]):
await interaction.response.send_message("You can't use that", ephemeral=True)

but it doesnt work

except disnake.ext.commands.MisingPermissions([disnake.permissions.manage_guild]):

over here, disnake == discord

[slate swan]

You don't need to give any parameters

So what's input() but in discord.py?

[stone palm]

it still doesnt work

[slate swan]

wait_for

And wait for a message

[stone palm]

?

you mean just except disnake.ext.commands.MisingPermissions():

[slate swan]

Without ()

[stone palm]

yeah that doesnt work either

[slate swan]

Because your code doesn't throw this exception

[stone palm]

    @commands.slash_command()
    @commands.has_permissions(manage_guild=True)
        async def cmd(self, ctx):
            try:
                await ctx.send("Hello")
            except discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions:
                await ctx.send("error")

[stone palm]

it still shows the error

MissingPermissions

[reef shell]

which lib

[stone palm]

disnake

[visual island]

Forbidden is raised for Missing Permissions issue

[slate swan]

How do I make my bot send prefix when bot is pinged like @bot
and not @bot how are you?
?

@slate swan like this...

if ctx.message.content == <"@your bot id">:
#show prefix

I tried

Not at all

message.content

Yeah nvm

1: Content
2: <> go in the "
3: It can also start with !

I tried but it didn't work

Can bot.get_guild return None?

It can be <@!id> and <@id>

Or just 404 Not Found

So check both

[slate swan]

Whats the difference?

!

Phone and computer

Nicked and not nicked

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_guild

get_guild(id, /)```
Returns a guild with the given ID.

[slate swan]

I didn't quite understand

If it's sent via phone

There's a !

If the user is nicked and you mention it

There's also a !

oh

the mentions in message.content you get always is in <@!> format tho

@slate swan another solution..

use a condition...

[slate swan]

its working now

Cool

I added a !

How to change volume with discord.VoiceClient

[oak warren]

is there a way to get all cooldowns ?

[slate swan]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content==f"<@!{bot_id}>" or message.content==f"<@{bot_id}>":
      try:
        em=discord.Embed(title="My prefix is `{prefix}`", colour=discord.Colour.random())
        await message.send(embed=em)
      except commands.MissingPermissions:
          channelid = message.channel.id
          await message.author.send(f"I need **Administrator** permissions in <#{channelid}>")```

Message has no attribute 'send'

[spring flax]

@slate swan send it to the channel of the message

[slate swan]

trying

[spring flax]

Not to the message lol

!d discord.Message.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.channel

The TextChannel or Thread that the message was sent from. Could be a DMChannel or GroupChannel if it’s a private message.

[slate swan]

And don't ask the users to give the bot admin permissions for sending an embed

A bot never needs admin permissions if managed correctly

I made my bot ask admin perms so that it can access every channel

A bot shouldn't be given admin permissions

[slate swan]

also I changed it to message.reply

[slate swan]

mmm

[boreal ravine]

It just needs embed permissions though to send the embed

[slate swan]

That's my point.......

[dusk pumice]

How can I get channel?

[slate swan]

Do you know it's ID?

[dusk pumice]

Yes.

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_channel

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

[dusk pumice]

Thanks

[slate swan]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/767641462179233792/895999163714666496/unknown.png

if my bot dont have perms for something to send this

[dapper trail]

do you guys know any fun stuff i can do with my bot

i just casually use it now to send images

[dusk pumice]

What

[slate swan]

how make command clear?

[boreal ravine]

you wanna clear a command?

[slate swan]

no, I want to make a command that will delete messages

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own. The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[boreal ravine]

you can use that and use limit to make a clear command

[slate swan]

thanks

[dusk pumice]

Is my code right?

@bot.event
async def on_member_remove(member):
  for channel in member.guild.text_channels:
    await channel.send(f"{member.guild.name}! {member.mention}!!")

[slate swan]

You might not want to send a message in every channel...

[boreal ravine]

api abuse

[dusk pumice]

Kk

[slate swan]

why it doesnt send the message

?

Remove the , at the end of set_footer

And you can just do ctx.send instead of ctx.channel.send

and ctx.user doesn't exist, for you it's just member (like your parameter name)

[shrewd pasture]

Hey quick question I’m doing checks and the user needs to mention a channel how would I get the channel from the message content

[slate swan]

it should be member.name at ctx.user.name
also why r u using msg = await ctx.channel.send(embed=em)
Just ctx.send is enough in that place

🦜

[shrewd pasture]

Don’t do the comma and also don’t do “ctx.channel.send” it’s ctx.send

[slate swan]

🦜

okay thanks guys

[slate swan]

Also bots don't require admin perms

ye ik

It's not the bot

i saw it now

It's for the user

about the perms

its ban_members = True

[slate swan]

Oh mb

Yus

ban_members is more accurate

Yea

[shrewd pasture]

Hey quick question I’m doing checks and the user needs to mention a channel how would I get the channel from the message content

I could really use some help on that one if you guys don’t mind

[slate swan]

again it doesnt send the message

[slate swan]

Do you have any errors?

no

Do you have an on_message event?

nope

well

you still have ctx.user

In the set_footer

And you don't need to add msg= await....

As you don't do anything with the variable afterwards

its {member.id}?

Yus

like this?

Yes

it works

tysm

No problem :p

Although you should check why you don't get any errors in the console

You should get errors if you haven't made an error handler that ignores everything

probably on_command_error event

[sullen shoal]

guys i whenever i use discord.ext.tasks where i have used open() for text files, all the code before it keeps getting spammed even if the interval is set to 8 hours. and doesn't do what my open() was supposed to do. anyone knows why?

[waxen granite]

how do i get the timezone?

[sullen shoal]

of what

[waxen granite]

my timezone

to convert the date

[slate swan]

Is it really needed?

Why not using Discord's timestamp formatting?

[lone lichen]

Show code

[sullen shoal]

okay one min

[waxen granite]

    async def on_message(self, message):
        msg = message.content.lower()
        localdate = datetime.date.today()
        obgend = datetime.date(2021, 11, 13)``` 
my code, localdate come from the american timezon since my bot is hosted in america, i wanna convert it to my timezone

[slate swan]

okayy

[slate swan]

But what do you plan on doing with that?

Depending what you do it's not needed

[waxen granite]

    async def on_message(self, message):
        msg = message.content.lower()
        localdate = datetime.date.today()
        obgend = datetime.date(2021, 11, 13)
        surgeryend = datetime.date(2022, 1, 12)
        medicineend = datetime.date(2022, 3, 13)
        cmend = datetime.date(2022, 5, 12)
        electivesend = datetime.date(2022, 5, 27)
        casualtyend = datetime.date(2022, 6, 11)
        ophthalend = datetime.date(2022, 6, 26)
        entend = datetime.date(2022, 7, 11)
        orthoend =datetime.date(2022, 8, 10)
        pediatricsend = datetime.date(2022, 9, 14)
        if msg == "posting":
            if localdate < obgend:
                def obg(localdate, obgend):
                   return (localdate - obgend).days
                days = f"{obg(obgend, localdate)}"
                if days == 1:
                    await message.reply("Your Next posting `Surgery`, starts tomorrow.")
                else:
                    await message.reply(f"Current Posting: `OBG`, {days} days to go.")```

[slate swan]

Yeah

Yup

[lone lichen]

For timezones

[slate swan]

But don't forget you can use Discord's timestamp not have to get the time difference manually

Can u ss cus I’ m on mobile and It’ s hard to read

Also use with statement to open file

[sullen shoal]

i cant, the content of if is very long

[lone lichen]

Ok then

[sullen shoal]

wait, i gotta do something about it

[lone lichen]

U started it wrong

[sullen shoal]

?

[lone lichen]

Start it in on ready event

Self.localcachedownload.start()

[sullen shoal]

it waits till the bot is ready,

    @local_cache_download.before_loop
    async def before_local_cache_starts(self):
        await self.bot.wait_until_ready()```

[lone lichen]

Put that in on ready event

Bro It’ s so weird on mobile

[sullen shoal]

yeah ik

[lone lichen]

Try to put a simple print statement in task

And comment out other stuff

And start

[sullen shoal]

then it works.
if i remove open everything goes fine

[lone lichen]

And make time 8 seconds

Try with open() as f:
Do something

Yk?

[sullen shoal]

async or normal?

[lone lichen]

Try normal

Try debugging it

Run a debugger

[sullen shoal]

same thing happens,

            with open('__cache/docs.txt', 'w') as file:
                file.write(source)
                file.close()```

[lone lichen]

Run a debugger

[sullen shoal]

my code doesn't give any error

[lone lichen]

Ik, just run a debugger and out a breakpoint at the start of task

And see what happens

[sullen shoal]

ok one sec

this debugger suck,

Exception has occurred: ImportError

my code is working fine tho

[rancid light]

hlo

[lone lichen]

Dont watch lucases tutorials

[slate swan]

XD

[rancid light]

why not

[slate swan]

They're outdated

And really bad

[lone lichen]

^

[rancid light]

oh

[lone lichen]

Try async with

but how do i fix it

[sullen shoal]

learn python and OOP
you'll fix it yoursef

[sullen shoal]

ok

[lone lichen]

LMFAOOO

[lone lichen]

Use diff method for unban command

[rancid light]

i did

[rancid light]

which method

[lone lichen]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61991393/unban-command-discord-py-rewrite

[sullen shoal]

didnt work

[rancid light]

oo ok thanks

[sullen shoal]

i even tried aiofiles

that dosnt work as well

[lone lichen]

Idfk y it does that

Weird

[shrewd pasture]

I need to get what the user mentions a channel in chat. For more context:

[lone lichen]

Put print statements in diff places

[sullen shoal]

yeah, i was doing everything else so quick and then this stupid bug came up

[shrewd pasture]

I just don’t know how to get the channel ID to send the message to

[sullen shoal]

i did in all possible places

[lone lichen]

!d discord.Message.channel_mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.channel\_mentions

A list of abc.GuildChannel that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list is always empty.

[sullen shoal]

if i use open() it just starts spamming the code above open and doesnt process open statement

[slate swan]

I think this is from stack lmao

[atomic topaz]

how to make a command to change the bots prefix? I'm using discord.ext

[lone lichen]

Idk bro, It’ s weird af and I dont have computer to try it rn

[lone lichen]

U gotta store prefixes in db

Then use get_prefix method to get the orefix

[atomic topaz]

oh

[lone lichen]

Prefix

[atomic topaz]

yeah I see

and then assign the prefix to the bot from the db

[lone lichen]

This is from lucas

[slate swan]

idk this guy but okay lol

[lone lichen]

Some dude w bad outdated dpy tutorials

[slate swan]

lool

Yeah also don't know that person

Just heard people talking about

[final iron]

They're bad but not outdated

[slate swan]

Pretty sure they are

[final iron]

Nope

[slate swan]

2 years ago

[lone lichen]

Well he makes stuff in a way no one does anymore

My point is, dont watch em

[shrewd pasture]

I don’t understand how to use the raw_reaction_channel though

[lone lichen]

Did u read in docs?

Also

[shrewd pasture]

It just showed the “raw_channel_mention” and List[int]

[lone lichen]

Lemme see

[shrewd pasture]

I don’t know how to use it

Lol I could just be stupid

[lone lichen]

U sure?

I think it just returns channel ids

[shrewd pasture]

Hmm

So I can set it up like this:
def raw_channel_mention(channel):
return channel

That simple? @lone lichen

[slate swan]

[shrewd pasture]

I’m really bad ik

[slate swan]

It's an attribute of a Message object

So Message.raw_channel_mentions will return a list of channel IDs that where in the Message object

[shrewd pasture]

Ohh okay thank you I

Let me go test that

[slate swan]

Sure

[slate swan]

aren't those the tutorials with pass_context?

[shrewd pasture]

While testing I got a string error so I tried to int it but it didn’t work

[lone lichen]

discord.Message.raw_channel_memtions

[slate swan]

What have you tried

Share the code

And the error

[shrewd pasture]

      emb3 = discord.Embed(
        title="Embed Channel",
        description="Please mention a channel to get the bot to send to!",
        color = emcolor
      )
      emb3.set_footer(text="Made by SyCON | Write 'cancel' to cancel")
      await ctx.reply(embed=emb3)
      def check(m):
        return m.channel == ctx.channel and m.author == ctx.author
    
      msg3 = await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check)
      if msg3.content == 'cancel' or msg3.content == 'Cancel' or msg3.content == 'CANCEL':
        await msg3.reply(embed=canc)
        return;
      test = int(msg3.content)
      channel = test.content.raw_channel_mentions
      await ctx.send(channel)

Error for that is “invalid literal for int()”
And before that was that it needed to be an int not string

[slate swan]

Why do you convert things?

Just do msg3.raw_channel_mentions

[shrewd pasture]

I told you

It gives me an error for a string

Idk why

[slate swan]

And instead of doing

if msg3.content == 'cancel' or msg3.content == 'Cancel' or msg3.content == 'CANCEL':
You can simply lower it

[slate swan]

Well if you do what I've said you won't get the error

Because you will remove the line that gives the error

[waxen granite]

how can i get guild from a channel?

[shrewd pasture]

Ohh

[shrewd pasture]

ctx.guild.id

[slate swan]

!d discord.TextChannel.guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.guild

The guild the channel belongs to.

[shrewd pasture]

Depending on if it’s a command or not

[slate swan]

I guess?

[waxen granite]

its an event

[slate swan]

What kind of event

[stiff nexus]

The guild object is already given

[waxen granite]

or wait

i could just use the guild id

[odd walrus]

qucik question what does this mean and whats the purpose

[slate swan]

To execute some code only if the file was run directly, and not imported

[grim oar]

!if-name-main

[unkempt canyon]

if __name__ == '__main__'

This is a statement that is only true if the module (your source code) it appears in is being run directly, as opposed to being imported into another module. When you run your module, the __name__ special variable is automatically set to the string '__main__'. Conversely, when you import that same module into a different one, and run that, __name__ is instead set to the filename of your module minus the .py extension.

Example

# foo.py

print('spam')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print('eggs')

If you run the above module foo.py directly, both 'spam'and 'eggs' will be printed. Now consider this next example:

# bar.py

import foo

If you run this module named bar.py, it will execute the code in foo.py. First it will print 'spam', and then the if statement will fail, because __name__ will now be the string 'foo'.

Why would I do this?

• Your module is a library, but also has a special case where it can be run directly
• Your module is a library and you want to safeguard it against people running it directly (like what pip does)
• Your module is the main program, but has unit tests and the testing framework works by importing your module, and you want to avoid having your main code run during the test

Is there a good way to make level up messages less annoying

Like can you make ur bot send messages similar to when you use a slash command and get an error and only you can see that message

how do i send msg in ctx channel for discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50013): Missing Permissions

[valid perch]

Give your bot perms to send stuff

[waxen granite]

i mean when this is the case

i want to send that i dont have permission

[valid perch]

You dont, you need to either print it or send it somewhere/to someone with perms

except CommandInvokeError

[slate swan]

use

what

why doesn't on_command_error show up in !d

oh wait got it

[valid perch]

Likely under ext's

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.on\_command\_error

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

The default command error handler provided by the bot.

By default this prints to [`sys.stderr`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.stderr "(in Python v3.9)") however it could be overridden to have a different implementation.

This only fires if you do not specify any listeners for command error.

[slate swan]

check if it's a discord.Forbidden

if yes, send something in ctx

[kindred zinc]

I am getting a error in this code saying that guild has no attribute 'id'. What am I doing wrong? I am using motor to access mongodb

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_guild_join(self, guild):
        new_guild = {
            'guild_id': guild.id,
            'guild_name': guild.name,
            'prefix': default_prefix,
            'Ranking_System': True
        }
        await config.insert_one(new_guild)

The config object:

mongo_client_id = os.environ['mongo_client_id']
cluster = motor_asyncio.AsyncIOMotorClient(mongo_client_id)
config = cluster['discord']['guild-settings']
default_prefix = '.'

[slate swan]

guild is an str in your case

try typehinting to discord.Guild

which would accept an id as the parameter

[stark bobcat]

Does roles have an attribute mention?

[slate swan]

or use discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_guild

[slate swan]

yes

[kindred zinc]

ok

[slate swan]

which would just be
self.bot.get_guild(id)

[stark bobcat]

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'mention

Gives a error

[slate swan]

why do you ask if a role has the attribute

while using a list

are those roles in that list?

Make sure you loop through the elements in your list

[edgy meadow]

Hey, does anyone know why this on_member_join function isnt running when someone joins?

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    print("test")

[slate swan]

or just iterate it

[object.attribute for object in list]```

[slate swan]

intents

[edgy meadow]

What do you mean with that?

[slate swan]

!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.

[slate swan]

lemme

lol this 😂

[stark bobcat]

Yes

[pliant nacelle]

why ping code doesn't work ?

[slate swan]

then iterate through the list

[slate swan]

we don't know whats wrong if u come and say why it don't works.

a list isn't gonna be a role object, just because there are roles in it

[kindred zinc]

thanks it worked

[slate swan]

nice

[stark bobcat]

What do you mean by iterage

[fair axle]

can you mix slash commands with buttons? for example /button and it responds with here is your button

@ me in response

[slate swan]

for role in roles:

[slate swan]

sure

are you using discord.py master branch?

[stark bobcat]

Oh

[fair axle]

umm i use discord.py and dislash.py

[stark bobcat]

Ok thanks

[slate swan]

cool , yes you can do that

[fair axle]

ok ima go try something

[pliant nacelle]

@pliant nacelle

[jade jolt]

how long can a command prefix be?

[slate swan]

I'm not saying you can't learn discord.py without python knowledge

but it's definitely the hard way

[jade jolt]

dude

[pliant nacelle]

token 🤣

[slate swan]

then it's just discord and I hate it

why are you making screenshots with your phone

[jade jolt]

its not the entire token i see

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

Command ping is not found

[jade jolt]

its capitalised

[pliant nacelle]

so what's the solution

[pliant nacelle]

because discord in my pc laggiing cuz i have a bad pc

and bad english two xD

[slate swan]

The command ping is not found and u made a command with capital P and u used small letter p that's the problem.

[pliant nacelle]
