If it's a private bot heroku is 100% the go-to bc it's free and easy to set up

meh, slow

It's pretty fast

[slate phoenix]

- Bots are not what the platform is designed for. Heroku is designed to provide web servers (like Django, Flask, etc). This is why they give you a domain name and open a port on their local emulator.

- Heroku's environment is heavily containerized, making it significantly underpowered for a standard use case.

- Heroku's environment is volatile. In order to handle the insane amount of users trying to use it for their own applications, Heroku will dispose your environment every time your application dies unless you pay.

- Heroku has minimal system dependency control. If any of your Python requirements need C bindings (such as PyNaCl binding to libsodium, or lxml binding to libxml), they are unlikely to function properly, if at all, in a native environment. As such, you often need to resort to adding third-party buildpacks to facilitate otherwise normal CPython extension functionality. (This is the reason why voice doesn't work natively on heroku.)

- Heroku only offers a limited amount of time on their free programme for your applications. If you exceed this limit, which you probably will, they'll shut down your application until your free credit resets.

[slate swan]

using slash commands makes me think it's not a private bot

My bot is on heroku

not slow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

Ik about that already

But as i said, for a private Bot heroku is good

[slate phoenix]

Google Cloud Services is better imo it doesn't cost much either

[slate swan]

You need a cc

[slate phoenix]

yes because its paid

[slate swan]

Exactly

Not everyone got one of those

while I was using heroku, I made two heroku accounts so that if one exceeds the 550h/month, I just start the app on the other account

[covert igloo]

@slate swan after putting it in the requirement file

[slate swan]

That's what I'm doing 😎

[slate swan]

one more reason to not use heroku?

[slate phoenix]

seems like too much hassle lol

[covert igloo]

works fine for what i need it to do

[slate swan]

Don't blame heroku for his fault

what did he do wrong

The name of the lib isn't discord_slash, check again

[slate swan]

!pypi discord_slash

[unkempt canyon]

Nah.

Package could not be found.

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

mhm

That's the module

[covert igloo]

do you have any idea what the lib is

[slate swan]

Nope

Never used it

[covert igloo]

oh i see

its discord-py-slash-commands

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[wintry panther]

how to reject dms from a bot

like how to make it not respond to a dm

[slate swan]

Check if the user that dm'ed you is a bot or not

[slate swan]

U mean make every command not work in dms?

[wintry panther]

like dont allow commands to be used if you dm the bot

[slate swan]

Oh

!d discord.ext.commands.guild_only

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.guild\_only

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

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

[slate swan]

Add that to all of your commands

[hasty iron]

or use a bot.check

[slate swan]

Or you could also simply make a bot check if you know how to

[covert igloo]

if u hadnt pointed it out i wouldve probably just removed slash commands lol

[deft hill]

How does one make a better help command?

I tried pretty_help but it doesnt seem to be the best/has limited customization.

[slate swan]

what's pretty_help

just use an embed, put a color and some fields

[hasty iron]

wow

[slate swan]

it be like that

[hasty iron]

Thanks

[vestal rapids]

hey guys

im having a bit of a problem

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord'

does anyone know how to help with this, if so please let me know

i have it installed through pip and stuff but it still says this its confusing and nothing is helping no matter what i try

[manic wing]

through pip and pip3?

type python -v

and python3 -v

[vestal rapids]

yes i did it through pip and pip3 do i do that other stuff in place of that?

can you give me like an example?

im a little slow sorry

[wise shell]

Most if not all the tutorials I see use pip install but on my Ubuntu machine I had to do pip3 install. No one seems to have the same problem, though it's not really a problem. If I use a virtual environment, though, pip install works fine.

[heavy heath]

Hey, can anyone tell me why my author/thumbnail isnt working? Ive been trying to figure out why but i have no idea... Code is below.

            title=f"{twitch_username}'s Twitch Stats",
            description=f"Username: {twitch_username}\nAccount Creation: {twitch_creation_tidy}\nBan Status: {twitch_ban_stat}",
            colour=discord.Colour.green()
        )
        embed.set_author(name='Utango')
        embed.set_thumbnail(url=twitch_pfp)

        await ctx.message.channel.send(embed=twitch_stats_embed)```

ah i figured it out... Im dumb

[delicate moat]

Hey, so I'm trying to make an event function that sends a message to the logs channel when a message is deleted. This is the code I have so far:

import discord
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
import datetime

client = Bot(command_prefix='>')
logs_channel = client.get_channel(896464547588759603)
intent = discord.Intents.default();
intent.members = True;
intent.guilds = True;

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Portfolio bot is now running.")

# On delete event filter
@client.event
async def on_message_delete(message):
  if not message.author.bot:
    embeded = discord.Embed(color = 0xEE8700)
    embeded.add_field(name = "Message has been deleted:", value=f"{message.author} has sent the following message which is now deleted:\n'{message.content}'\n\nDate: {datetime.date.today()}\nUser ID: {message.author.id}")
    await client.wait_until_ready()
    await logs_channel.send(embed = embeded)

        
client.run("token :)")

And it returns a Attribute Error: 'NoneType' Object has no attribute 'send'

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[vestal rapids]

man i cant even import discord

[slate phoenix]

the issue is that its trying to get the channel before the bot is ready which is why it's returning none

try putting logs_channel = client.get_channel(896464547588759603) inside your event

[vestal rapids]

i get the error for no module when i try to run my bot

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord'

[delicate moat]

Ahhh thanks so much it works now ! :)

[slate phoenix]

and you did pip install discord.py ?

[vestal rapids]

yes i did

[slate phoenix]

what IDE are you using?

[vestal rapids]

VS

[delicate moat]

What OS are you using? Because when I tried running discord.py on my mac it wouldn't work

[vestal rapids]

windows

[delicate moat]

oh

[vestal rapids]

i did both pip install discord.py and discord

and it says it worked and installed

but when i try to run the bot it gives me the error

[slate phoenix]

try this: uninstall both modules, reinstall, restart your ide

[vestal rapids]

weird im still getting the error

[slate phoenix]

you only reinstalled discord.py too right

[vestal rapids]

yes

[slate phoenix]

do you have multiple versions of python installed?

[vestal rapids]

how do i check

i dont think i do im pretty sure i only have 3.10

[slate phoenix]

iirc d.py is supported up to 3.8

[vestal rapids]

so i need to uninstall 3.10 and install 3.8?

[slate phoenix]

I would yeah, i doubt thats the issue though

I had similar issues before and it was because i had multiple versions of python installed

[reef shell]

Not up to

3.8+

[vestal rapids]

so it should work with 3.10?

[reef shell]

I saw some people are already using, i guess there should be no problems

[slate phoenix]

on the github it had this 🤷‍♂️

[solid wave]

How do I send a message

like an @ message

with only the name of the person who sent it

[reef shell]

wdym?

[solid wave]

like I have

author = message.author

and if you print it

it is

the name of the person

but I want it like @solid wave

not just Asad

[reef shell]

then use message.author.mention

[solid wave]

Thanks

is it a function

[reef shell]

No?

!d discord.User.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.mention

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

[solid wave]

ok thanks

[reef shell]

message.author is a discord.User or discord.Member instance

[reef shell]

So you can use this

[solid wave]

yeah

also one more thing

if someone sends a message

how do I make sure they have the authority

like if they have a certain role to do it

how do I get their roles

[reef shell]

i assume you are using on_message event. You need to define commands using command decorator and add checks for that

[solid wave]

Ok

but...

how do I do it?

[reef shell]

!d discord.ext.commands.command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.command

@discord.ext.commands.command(name=..., cls=..., **attrs)```
A decorator that transforms a function into a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") or if called with [`group()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.group "discord.ext.commands.group"), [`Group`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Group "discord.ext.commands.Group").

By default the `help` attribute is received automatically from the docstring of the function and is cleaned up with the use of `inspect.cleandoc`. If the docstring is `bytes`, then it is decoded into [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.9)") using utf-8 encoding.

All checks added using the [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") & co. decorators are added into the function. There is no way to supply your own checks through this decorator.

[solid wave]

give me an example

[reef shell]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/basic_bot.py

[solid wave]

which part tells me how to get roles

[flint isle]

i am needing some sample code that has my bot interact with a telnet server and processes the responce
here is the ip info and the port
10.0.0.1
port:8080

[solid wave]

ok

[solid wave]

why are you asking me

also

this is the python server

[hot sparrow]

I just started doing bots with python for discord and I already got a problem.
I took this guys script form youtube and isn't working on my server...

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
async def on_message(message):
    username = str(message.author).split("#")[0]
    user_message = str(message.content)
    channel = str(message.channel.name)
    print(f'{username}: {user_message} ({channel})')
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
    if message.channel.name == 'kk':
        if user_message.lower() == 'hello':
            await message.channel.send(f'Hello {username}!')
            return
        elif user_message.lower() == 'bye':
            await message.channel.send(f'See ya {username}')
            return
        elif user_message.lower() == '!random':
            response = f'random: {random.randrange("Você conhece a piada do pônei? Pô nei eu", "O que o pagodeiro foi fazer na igreja? Cantar pá God", "O que o pato falou para a pata? Vem quá", "Você sabe qual é o rei dos queijos? O reiqueijão")}'
            await message.channel.send(response)
            return
    if user_message.lower() == '!anywhere':
        await message.channel.send('This can be used anywhere!')
        return
client.run(TOKEN)```

The script is logging on the bot account, but not reading or responding to messages.
What it's wrong?

[patent surge]

async def on_message(message):
    if await events.is_not_restricted_channel(message):
        if message.author == bot.user:
            return
        else:
           print("Processing")
           await bot.process_commands(message)```
Process command is not working ?

Can anyone help me in this?

[brisk fiber]

1. youtube tutorials for discord.py are all pretty bad (teach bad practices etc)— try to keep away from them if you can
2. you need to add the event decorator to your on_message event as well

[hot sparrow]

Thanks!! I really needed this message.
Do you have any font where I can learn about discord.py?

[brisk fiber]

reading the docs is always a good place to start– they have examples

[brisk fiber]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master

[rich valley]

how would I get <t:1633827472:F> to work and whats it called so I can find docs and stuff for it (someone showed me this and I have no clue whats happening but it converts to different timezones)

[hot sparrow]

Thanks, 🙂

[brisk fiber]

they're called timestamps

[rich valley]

oh ok

[brisk fiber]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting-timestamp-styles

[rich valley]

so what would I google

oh ok thanks

[brisk fiber]

np

oh wait

https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting this link for wider context

[patent surge]

?

[slate swan]

logs = await guild.audit_logs(limit=1, target=discord.AuditLogDiff.vanity_url_code).flatten()

type object 'AuditLogDiff' has no attribute 'vanity_url_code'

How would I fix this?

[mortal dove]

Is there any way to get if a user was mentioned in a string? I'm pretty sure there is I just forgot how. Say I have '@mortal dove', it would know that @mortal dove is an instance of discord.User, from the string. Hope that makes sense? Basically it needs to take in a string or a user, and do something if it is a string and something else if it is a user.

[slate swan]

so basically within the same command, you're trying to target either a user or a string?

[mortal dove]

Yeah

[slate swan]

whats the code for your command and what are you trying to do

[mortal dove]

If it helps, it's for a purge command. You can either do 'bot' (and similar), 'user', 'all', or mention a user

It's kinda a lot one sec

[slate swan]

ah ok

lemme see what i can do

[mortal dove]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[slate swan]

for user and bot wouldnt it be easier for it just to be categorized under user since they all are under the same object?

[sage otter]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Message.mentions

[mortal dove]

I would do this, but I also may want to delete all messages by kyle that ping jeff, and the list is unordered

Or all messages that ping jeff, or all messages by kyle

[sage otter]

iterate over it then?

[mortal dove]

Unordered, so I would be confused over more than one ping

[sage otter]

Just to make sure I’m understanding this right. You want to delete any message that has a mention of a specific user?

[mortal dove]

Well that's a possibility

and one that wouldn't work if I use an unordered list

[slate swan]

yeah, so he basically wants it to do that, and have it so that it's optional in which case he can just purge messages like normal

[sage otter]

Literally just

[mortal dove]

Delete Everything from Kyle that includes Jimmy != Deleted Everything from Jimmy that Includes Kyle. There's no difference in the unordered list

yes but

[sage otter]

Actually hold on

[mortal dove]

Im gonna use MS paint to demonstrate my point one sec

[slate swan]

    @commands.command()
    async def purge(self, ctx, user: discord.Member = None, amount: int = int):
        if user == None:
            if amount == None:
                await ctx.message.channel.purge(5)
                await ctx.send(f'Purged 5 Messages!')
            else:
                await ctx.message.channel.purge(amount)
                await ctx.send(f'Purged {amount} Messages!')
        else:
            if amount == None:
                async for message in ctx.channel.history(limit = 5):
                    if message.author == user:
                        await ctx.message.channel.purge(5)
                        await ctx.send(f'Purged 5 Messages From User: {user.name}')
            else:
                async for message in ctx.channel.history(limit = amount):
                    if message.author == user:
                        await ctx.message.channel.purge(amount)
                        await ctx.send(f'Purged {amount} Messages From User: {user.name}')```

lmk if this is what you wanted

and if it works

i havent tested it yet lol

[mortal dove]

Hmm I think I can make it work

Thonx

[slate swan]

is that what you wanted?

py
logs = await guild.audit_logs(limit=1, target=discord.AuditLogDiff.vanity_url_code).flatten()
type object 'AuditLogDiff' has no attribute 'vanity_url_code'```
How would I fix this?

    @commands.command()
    async def purge(self, ctx, user: discord.Member = None, amount: int = int):
        if user == None:
            if amount == None:
                await ctx.message.channel.purge(5)
                await ctx.send(f'Purged 5 Messages!')
            else:
                await ctx.message.channel.purge(amount)
                await ctx.send(f'Purged {amount} Messages!')
        else:
            if amount == None:
                async for message in ctx.channel.history(limit = 5):
                    if message.author == user:
                        await ctx.message.channel.purge(5)
                        await ctx.send(f'Purged 5 Messages From User: {user.name}')
            else:
                async for message in ctx.channel.history(limit = amount):
                    if message.author == user:
                        await ctx.message.channel.purge(amount)
                        await ctx.send(f'Purged {amount} Messages From User: {user.name}')```

wait i fixed it a bit @mortal dove

i messed up with the ctx.author

[sage otter]

This only solves like 1/2 of the guys problem tho. He said he wanted to purge messages that were by that specific author and that included a specific mention of someone.

[slate swan]

isnt that what he meant? purging someone specifics messages?

[sage otter]

and that included a specific mention of someone.

[slate swan]

oh basically if that persons name was mentioned inside of a message it would get deleted?

[sage otter]

yeah

[slate swan]

thats not bad

[sage otter]

if discord.User.mention in [x.mention for x in discord.Message.mentions]
    ...

[slate swan]

async for message in ctx.channel.history():
     if user.mention in message.content:
          await message.delete()```

would that work?

[outer basalt]

what is the dif btw thread remove and delete?

[bright palm]

Just use the check argument of the purge method to only purge messages of a specific user

[patent surge]

why my bot.process_commands(message) is not working.
There is command written but the command is not getting run

[slate swan]

dont put await bot.process_commands(message) in else /elif/if statements

[patent surge]

Still not working

😩

[odd walrus]

just to make sure, if I have my discord bot in Server A only
and someone that isnt in it will not be able to use it ln the DMS right

[slate swan]

guildid=894378876883578890

@bot.command()
async def whois(ctx,*,message:int):

    guild = bot.get_guild(guildid)

    whoisuser = guild.get_member(message)
    await ctx.send(f"**{message}** is **{whoisuser}**")
    print(f"**{message}** is **{whoisuser}**")```
how would i make this get_member from all the guilds it's in

[odd walrus]

Uhm i think theres some author thingy u can use

So you dont need to do the whoisuser stuff

[odd walrus]

@bot.command()
async def whois(ctx,*,message:int):
    username = str(message.author).split('#')[0]
    guild = bot.get_guild(guildid)

    await ctx.send(f"**{message}** is **{username}**")
    print(f"**{message}** is **{username}**") ```
try this not sure would it work tho im new at these too

[zenith hare]

is it possible to know with which invitation code a member enter? ,':

[odd walrus]

i think dyno has a feature that can track

Not sure tho

[zenith hare]

I mean doing it in code, with the event on_member_join

[boreal osprey]

Is it sending the id’s?

[odd walrus]

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):

    # Getting the invites before the user joining

    # see which invite uses number increased

    invites_after_join = await member.guild.invites()

    # Loops for each invite we have for the guild
    # the user joined.

    for invite in invites_before_join:

        # Now, we're using the function we created just

[zenith hare]

thx

[mortal dove]

How do I find if a string has a mention in it without using message.mentions?

[final iron]

This is impossible to read

[slate swan]

'Guild' object has no attribute 'vanity_url_code'

what would the correct object be

this has me so confused

[odd walrus]

was on phone cant copy paste properly

[lilac latch]

I actually wanted to make a command like botdie which can kill the bot and botalive which can bring it back to life idk if it's possible

[slate swan]

um yea that's possible

instead of killing the bot you can suspend it, so any other commands won't work

[lilac latch]

How??

[slate swan]

one sec

[lilac latch]

Oh ok

[slate swan]

https://stackoverflow.com/a/67052719

[lilac latch]

I don't want to write it in front of each command

[slate swan]

for command in client.commands:
  command.update(enabled=False)
``` will disable the commands

[lilac latch]

Oh thanks

[slate swan]

is it possible to record microphone and play it at the same time on a discord bot?

[boreal ravine]

why are you spoonfeeding

[somber musk]

I have a functioning bot but how can I make it when it gets pinged it says the help command

[civic fractal]

check the mentions in the messages

if your bot is in that list, then send the help command

[slate swan]

check if the bot is mentioned , and use

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_command

get_command(name)```
Get a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") from the internal list of commands.

This could also be used as a way to get aliases.

The name could be fully qualified (e.g. `'foo bar'`) will get the subcommand `bar` of the group command `foo`. If a subcommand is not found then `None` is returned just as usual.

[slate swan]

you can invoke the help command then..

[boreal ravine]

they asked whats the use of it

[calm vortex]

Idrk

So I showed what it does

I have seen impersonation commands that use webhooks though

Like making it look like someone is saying something using a webhook message

[boreal ravine]

webhooks can also hyperlink

no it deleted the webhook

[calm vortex]

It deletes the webhook

[calm vortex]

Cool

[tough wagon]

!d discord.WebhookMessage.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.WebhookMessage.delete

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

Deletes the message.

[tough wagon]

for that

[calm vortex]

m is None if I do
m = await webhook.send(...)
Sad

[tough wagon]

more code?

and full traceback

[calm vortex]

No I don't want help, just saying something I noticed

[tough wagon]

ehm okay

[slate swan]

it takes ids and tells you a username

[boreal osprey]

And your trying to get the server name list?

[slate swan]

i need to have the guild = all the guilds the bot is in

how would i do that

[tough wagon]

bot?

[boreal osprey]

Oh i can give you that

[slate swan]

okay

[tough wagon]

if a bot then it is

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.guilds

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

[tough wagon]

[burnt wharf]

How would I create buttons for a user to interact with?

[tough wagon]

@burnt wharf https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/examples/views

2.0v of discord.py needed

[burnt wharf]

Thank you. Also, what's the latest version of discord.py?

Would it be 2.0?

[tough wagon]

it is 1.7.3, but there is unreleased 2.0.0

[burnt wharf]

So would having 1.7.3 be best?

Since you're saying that 2.0 is unreleased

[tough wagon]

yes it is unreleased because some features not ready, but there is all features of 1.7.3 and views (buttons, dropdowns), ephemeral messages, banners, guild avatars and much more ready

because that i am using it

buttons are impossible in 1.7.3

[burnt wharf]

Will 2.0 be releasing anytime soon?

[tough wagon]

I don't know

@burnt wharf there is this task board https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/projects/3

but already about month there is nothing changed

it like, stopped

xD

[slate swan]

how can I add proxies on my python file...
like...I have a bot and it frequently gets blocked by discord api...How can I use a random proxy whenever I start the bot??

[final iron]

Why is your bot getting blocked?

[boreal ravine]

u mean api blocked?

[hardy geyser]

how do I add a debounce for my discord bot?

[tough wagon]

debouce?

maybe description?

[hardy geyser]

a debounce would prevent the user from spamming & overloading the bot

[slate swan]

a cooldown?

[hardy geyser]

yeah basically

[tough wagon]

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=discord.ext.commands.BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[dusk pumice]

How can I send a message to all server where my bot is in?

[tough wagon]

for g in bot.guilds: send message
spam is not a good thing...

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.guilds , gets you all guilds
choose a channel to send message in , and use channel.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.guilds

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

[slate swan]

why would you want to do that though?

[dusk pumice]

I want to tell the server the update of my bot

[tough wagon]

lol ok

[dusk pumice]

I know spam is bad but can you give me any sample codes?

Plz

[tough wagon]

for g in bot.guilds:
    await g.system_channel.send('HeY, ThErE iS a NeW uPdAtE oF mE')```

[dusk pumice]

Tnx a lot

HeY, ThErE iS a NeW uPdAtE oF mE?!?!!? lol

th🇦🇳🇰🇸

[slate swan]

you can still use forks if you need slash cmds... ( disnake , pycord etc)

[steep estuary]

why slash commands are not working?

[dusk pumice]

You need to wait 1hour after you make a new slash commands...

I know like that

[steep estuary]

okk

[dusk pumice]

Or try this... wait a min

[steep estuary]

:/

[dusk pumice]

@slash.slash(name="test", guild_ids=[])

try like this

@steep estuary

[steep estuary]

i tried this

it didn't worked :/

[dusk pumice]

Did you imported ```python
from discord_slash import SlashCommand

[steep estuary]

did :/

[dusk pumice]

this?

hmm

[steep estuary]

ctx: SlashContext ?

this is necessary?

wht?

[dusk pumice]

Ctx is context

[steep estuary]

yes but i saw docs

[sweet merlin]

how do i get channel id? like message.content.id

[dusk pumice]

So I guess it's not that important

[sweet merlin]

i dont know if that work

[steep estuary]

message.channel.id

[dusk pumice]

Do ctx.channel.id

or message

[sweet merlin]

im using cogs

and listener

[dusk pumice]

Ok

[tough wagon]

doesn't metter just get channel from object that have this attr

message for example

[dusk pumice]

@bot.command()
async def channel(ctx):
    print(ctx.channel.id)

[sweet merlin]

thanks

[dusk pumice]

🙂

[sweet merlin]

uh its getting the channel id?

[dusk pumice]

Yes

[sweet merlin]

i want the message id, sorry i was typo

[dusk pumice]

Ok

[slate swan]

Replace channel with message

[dusk pumice]

yea

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.id

The message ID.

[sweet merlin]

ok

[dusk pumice]

@bot.command()
async def msg(ctx):
    print(ctx.message.id)

[solar pike]

how can we build our own api?

[slate swan]

Use a web framework that makes APIs or simply create basic raw PHP or similar files and host it on a web server

[solar pike]

oh ok

[slate swan]

Depending on the language(s) you know there is definitely a framework to make web applications, just search it up

[dusk pumice]

Or try this. you will see everything of message.

@bot.event
async def on_message(msg)
    print(msg)

Haha. It's not useful. but if it's test bot..

[sweet merlin]

ok

[dusk pumice]

Than you get a message like

 <Message id=896630045731336233 channel=<TextChannel id=888569645047636002 name='일반' position=0 nsfw=False news=False category_id=888569645047636000> type=<MessageType.default: 0> author=<Member id=853955303535804436 name='이도열' discriminator='5785' bot=False nick=None guild=<Guild id=||Private!|| name='||Private!||' shard_id=None chunked=False member_count=4>> flags=<MessageFlags value=0>>

[tough wagon]

it will print <class Object at smth discord.Message>

[tough wagon]

hm

[dusk pumice]

I got this printed

yep. I just copied the console

[tough wagon]

okay that's true

bruh

No need of doing raise error()

WTFFFFF that ifs are superfluous if there is no {user.id} it just won't replace and won't raise any error, like.... xD

from database, i also set the message 3 different times before it

How about delating 1st message and send 2nd?
not that?

Huh????

dpy has webhook?

Didn't know that

and bye

[calm vortex]

@dusk pumice

from discord import Webhook, AsyncWebhookAdapter
import aiohttp

async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
 webhook = Webhook.from_url('url-here', adapter=AsyncWebhookAdapter(session))

[dusk pumice]

👀

[dusk pumice]

Thank you. I didn't know that

?

\❌

[still tiger]

How would I attach a image to my embed from a relative file instead of url?

[calm vortex]

?

[dusk pumice]

hmm

[calm vortex]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#how-do-i-use-a-local-image-file-for-an-embed-image

[still tiger]

so instead of
url=http..
I would want
file=img.png

[dusk pumice]

Use imgur

[still tiger]

thanks

[calm vortex]

@still tiger

[dusk pumice]

Didn't knowed that

[slate swan]

no

[dusk pumice]

Um ok

[slate swan]

my name was felony

[dusk pumice]

Oh...it's sxcu

lol

I got to go now byebye

[maiden fable]

A tag is also there lol

!local

[unkempt canyon]

Thanks to discord.py, sending local files as embed images is simple. You have to create an instance of discord.File class:

# When you know the file exact path, you can pass it.
file = discord.File("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", filename="file.png")

# When you have the file-like object, then you can pass this instead path.
with open("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", "rb") as f:
    file = discord.File(f)

When using the file-like object, you have to open it in rb mode. Also, in this case, passing filename to it is not necessary.
Please note that filename can't contain underscores. This is a Discord limitation.

discord.Embed instances have a set_image method which can be used to set an attachment as an image:

embed = discord.Embed()
# Set other fields
embed.set_image(url="attachment://file.png")  # Filename here must be exactly same as attachment filename.

After this, you can send an embed with an attachment to Discord:

await channel.send(file=file, embed=embed)

This example uses discord.TextChannel for sending, but any instance of discord.abc.Messageable can be used for sending.

[still tiger]

@dusk pumice So it still ives that error when i try to edit an embed with an img

[still tiger]

I tried the code, this is what it looks like

[dusk pumice]

AWW.. so sad

[dusk pumice]

WTH

[odd walrus]

inside a discord bot, i must use either one of BOT or CLIENT right its not possible to use both if not wrong?

[still tiger]

Whatever you intialize it as, it also could be imacoolbot or apiudkjqqden

for example bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='-') could be thisisacoolbot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='-')

[tough wagon]

Whatever you want, but I think that commands.Bot is better (I chose 3rd way:)

[still tiger]

but then you must refrence it as thisisacoolbot not bot if you have set so

[odd walrus]

cause im merging 2 scripts
one uses
client = discord.Client()
the other uses
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">")
causes it not to work

[maiden fable]

What do u want to do? Can I get some code?

[still tiger]

Actually its fine, what I wanted to do isnt possible so I just delete the message and upload another one with a file instead of editing it

Also I have a question, people say to hide the token in an external file, why is this?

[odd walrus]

good question
i was thinking either they dont want to show it when showing their code or they want to make some config file for others to change the token easily

[still tiger]

Hmm

[slender river]

idk whyd yu use both in the first place tbh

id say yu just use commands.Bot since yu can work with everything that discord.Client provides and also add cmds as needed

would anyone know how to setup a counter with a bot by any chance? as in every time i run it on replit i want the amount of times the code has been ran to show up.

ive already made an array for the test count and setup another global var to be appended to the array when the codes ran but i dont know how to make the new value that was added stay

[slate swan]

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after):
        time = datetime.datetime.utcnow().strftime('[%Y/%b/%d - %I:%M %p]')
        if after.channel:
            if not before.channel and after.channel:
                print(f"[+] {member} Joined {after.channel.name[2:]} at {time}")
        if before.channel:
            if before.channel and not after.channel:
                print(f"[-] {member} Left {before.channel.name[2:]} at {time}")

I have this, But when someone moves into another channel, It doesn't tell me, Can someone tell me what's the function for it?

Is there an api to change my bot token? Imagine I could change it if it gets logged somehow

[slate swan]

I don't think so...

Shame

Would be cool the eh

Im not sure tho!

[tough wagon]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_voice_state_update(self, member, before, after):
        time = datetime.datetime.utcnow().strftime('[%Y/%b/%d - %I:%M %p]')
        if before.channel != after.channel:
            if after.channel is None and before.channel is not None:
                print(f"[-] {member} Left {before.channel.name[2:]} at {time}")
            elif before.channel is None:
                print(f"[+] {member} Joined {after.channel.name[2:]} at {time}")
            else:
                print(f"[+] {member} Moved from {before.channel.name[2:]} to {after.channel.name[2:]} at {time}")```

[slate swan]

is there a way to get he user id on button click??

Im using nextcord

[tough wagon]

oh nextcord, then idk

[slate swan]

how would you do it normally?

[tough wagon]

im using discordpy 2.0v

[unkempt canyon]

Fat chance.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

This works but, I want to show 3 things (Left, Joined, Moved)

[slate swan]

for moved it would be veeery complex

Urgh

Again?

[tough wagon]

edited @slate swan

[slate swan]

only thing i can think of is using SQL

to check wether a user left and re-joined another channel

or plain left

[slate swan]

Shush it works!

[tough wagon]

@slate swan no men, you are wrong)

[slate swan]

honestly idk how to use on_voice_state_update

Thanks guys!

you're right ngl

i just assumed

[tough wagon]

I'm not good at this english, what is ngl?

[delicate moat]

not going to lie

[slate swan]

not gonna lie

[tough wagon]

ok

[delicate moat]

How do I make a list of all user roles?

[tough wagon]

!d discord.Member.roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.roles

property roles: List[Role]```
A [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") that the member belongs to. Note that the first element of this list is always the default [‘@everyone](mailto:'%40everyone)’ role.

These roles are sorted by their position in the role hierarchy.

[slate swan]

member.roles

o welp

:.\

[tough wagon]

!pypi nextcord

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord v2.0.0a3

A Python wrapper for the Discord API forked from discord.py

[delicate moat]

when i do that it returns

({guild_id: (censor_list)})

wait

[tough wagon]

code pls?

[delicate moat]

wrong one one sec

[tough wagon]

ok

[slate swan]

it should return a list

[delicate moat]

Code:
@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
  global bot_delete
  if not ctx.author.bot:
    role = discord.utils.find(lambda r: r.name == 'Muted', ctx.message.guild.roles)
    if role not in member.roles:
      print(member.roles)

Output:
[<Role id=896648465227055157 name='@everyone'>, <Role id=896653598220492811 name='MEE6'>]

[tough wagon]

it MUST return a list

[tough wagon]

so what is wrong?

[delicate moat]

I thought it would retunr a list like ["admin", "muted", "staff"] etc

[tough wagon]

no

[slate swan]

Ofc it doesn’t

It’s discord

[delicate moat]

then how do i make it return a list like that

[tough wagon]

but you can do it through [role.name for role in member.roles]

[slate swan]

let’s be real here.

[delicate moat]

that worked thank you :)

[slate swan]

@tough wagon is on_voice_state_update useful at all?

i rarely see it

[tough wagon]

yes ofc, I used it for logs

[slate swan]

should i consider learning it?

putting logs aside

[tough wagon]

idk

[slate swan]

|}p/0;-[-+*9

[tough wagon]

if you want voice logs: yes , if not: i think no

[slate swan]

sorry dust on my keyboard

[tough wagon]

lol

[slate swan]

it feels kinda like spying

so i usually avoid it

[cinder horizon]

how do i get this to be India?....or can i?

[sullen shoal]

str.title()
?
str is the variable

[unkempt canyon]

str.title

str.title()```
Return a titlecased version of the string where words start with an uppercase character and the remaining characters are lowercase.

For example:

```py
>>> 'Hello world'.title()
'Hello World'
```  The algorithm uses a simple language-independent definition of a word as groups of consecutive letters. The definition works in many contexts but it means that apostrophes in contractions and possessives form word boundaries, which may not be the desired result:

```py
>>> "they're bill's friends from the UK".title()
"They'Re Bill'S Friends From The Uk"
```...

[cinder horizon]

thenks

[slate swan]

usueful i never knew it existed

[tough wagon]

lol

[sullen shoal]

basic string methods, https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_ref_string.asp

[slate swan]

nice ty

[tough wagon]

there is also capitalize

[unkempt canyon]

str.capitalize

str.capitalize()```
Return a copy of the string with its first character capitalized and the rest lowercased.

Changed in version 3.8: The first character is now put into titlecase rather than uppercase. This means that characters like digraphs will only have their first letter capitalized, instead of the full character.

[tough wagon]

name = "geeks FOR geeks"
print(name.capitalize())```

[unkempt canyon]

@tough wagon :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

Geeks for geeks

[spring flax]

can you log deleted stickers?

[slate swan]

is it possible to append letters to a string like i would do with a list..?

[sullen shoal]

.join()

[tough wagon]

!d str.join

[unkempt canyon]

str.join

str.join(iterable)```
Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in *iterable*. A [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") will be raised if there are any non-string values in *iterable*, including [`bytes`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes "bytes") objects. The separator between elements is the string providing this method.

[sullen shoal]

convert it to string first

[tough wagon]

not ...region.title, it is str(...region).title

[lament mesa]

show your code

[cinder horizon]

one sec

[slate swan]

nice

[spring flax]

#discord-bots message ?

[sullen shoal]

these are some really basic stuff python can do, i hope you learn these things first before going for discord bots.

[cinder horizon]

worked...

[tough wagon]

@spring flax

[cinder horizon]

shall do so...thenks

[slate swan]

i usually dont use discord bots for aesthetic looking commands

[lament mesa]

Check the before.stickers and after.stickers in on_guild_update

[spring flax]

oh i meant like someone psots a mesage which has a sticker and then deletes the message can you get the sticker that was deleted

[tough wagon]

good thing, i started coding on python with dpy and all i did is command say and on_message event in first month, so hard without basics)

[spring flax]

yeah mb that's not what i meant

[tough wagon]

yes you can, if you get the deleted message there is stickers attr

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.stickers

A list of sticker items given to the message.

New in version 1.6.

[slate swan]

almost all questions are related to dpy 2.0 here

[spring flax]

oh thank you

[sullen shoal]

yes, its a waste of time to go for stuff like this without learning the basics first, i too wasted a month or so trying to code a discord bot without even knowing how classes work or what even they are

[tough wagon]

))

[slate swan]

I feel useless

[tough wagon]

xD

[slate swan]

i 100% agree with you sir

[slate swan]

Relatable

[spring flax]

it would be sticker.format?

nvm it has png attr

[tough wagon]

sticker.format is it's image

[tough wagon]

yes

[trim briar]

Hello

I have a doubt - I changed my prefix from ! to Flo but can't seem to have space in it. Eg. I have to use Floprefix instead of Flo prefix. How do I solve it?

[tough wagon]

you have a server prefix system?

or it's command_prefix='Flo'?

[trim briar]

Server Prefix Sys

[tough wagon]

hm

sed idk how to do that

[trim briar]

oh np

[sullen shoal]

command_prefix='Flo '

[tough wagon]

he is making a server prefix sys

and there is case_insensitive for this

[sullen shoal]

oh

[hasty iron]

thats for commands

not the prefix

[sullen shoal]

i've done the server prefix sys once, it worked fine with spaces too, let me find the code one sec

[tough wagon]

oof, strip_after_prefix then?

do you even know what that does or are you just spitting random stuff you found

[errant shuttle]

are you talking to me?

[tough wagon]

maybe, I think im not the worst person here?)

[hasty iron]

no

[errant shuttle]

well, can you help me with my problem?

[hasty iron]

its author.voice.channel

[tough wagon]

it is not voice_channel, it is channel

[errant shuttle]

ok..... imma try both

[hasty iron]

and client.join_voice_channel is not a thing

[tough wagon]

and channel.join()

[hasty iron]

stop copying old code

[errant shuttle]

ok....

[sullen shoal]

here it is, https://github.com/m-y-x-i/Kreklie-discord-bot/blob/main/cogs/server.py
(this project was coded before i knew about classes so i coded anything i could think of so the code is pretty spaghetti looking)

[errant shuttle]

which tutorial shud i watch then?

[hasty iron]

none

[thick sigil]

docs

[hasty iron]

read the docs and experiment yourself

[trim briar]

alright thanks I'll check

I actually didn't understood your prefix way lol.

[tough wagon]

Pretty weird, first the prefix is only one word, second user can write !prefix h! no and it will set space after prefix

[dusk pumice]

Can i use 2 prefix in python?

---I'm back :D

[tough wagon]

command_prefix can take a list of prefixes

[trim briar]

yes

[dusk pumice]

Huh?

WDYM

[tough wagon]

b = commands.Bot(command_prefix=['!', '?'])

and it will work with ! and with ?

[dusk pumice]

OH really?

[tough wagon]

yes

[dusk pumice]

I'm gonna try it

out

[sullen shoal]

yeah the code is weird.
my prefix command works this way:

kkprefix . withspace : . help
kkprefix . : .help

[trim briar]

Btw, I have some commands that could also work in my bots DMs but since I changed the way of how my prefix works (I used json for my prefix in different servers so that means command_prefix = get_prefix). Now when I type the command in my bots DM, it gives the following error:

raise TypeError("command_prefix must be plain string, iterable of strings, or callable "
TypeError: command_prefix must be plain string, iterable of strings, or callable returning either of these, not NoneType

and also this it how it works:

@client.command()
async def help(ctx):
    await ctx.message.add_reaction("📭")
    def check(m):
        if m.author == ctx.author and not ctx.guild:
            return True

[tough wagon]

you should change your code of get_prefix func

[slate swan]

How can I use proxy for my discord bot as sometime replit gets rate limited and my bot gets blocked temporarily

[sullen shoal]

check the type of get_prefix

or what it returns

[tough wagon]

it returns None because DM guild is none

[slate swan]

[sullen shoal]

oh yeah

[slate swan]

..

[sullen shoal]

is it replit

[trim briar]

Indeed

[thick sigil]

???

[tough wagon]

doesn't metter

[thick sigil]

just return the list

return ["flo", "flO", "FLO"]

[sullen shoal]

replit uses shared ip, so it may get rate limited any time and secondly replit has a very easy to use database that will get you rid of json

[tough wagon]

delete prefixes in else

just return a list

[trim briar]

Yes I have used the replit db once

[slate swan]

[trim briar]

alright

[sullen shoal]

your token will get ratelimited not ip, all the tokens from your acc won't work

[slate swan]

oh

so no way to bypass right?

[sullen shoal]

except creating thousands of discord accounts, no

[slate swan]

[dusk pumice]

cute

[trim briar]

Thanks, it worked

but now

[hasty iron]

cloudflare bans are ip based

they last for like an hour, so i don’t see why you would want to bypass them

[trim briar]

Only this is pending

[slate swan]

Because my bot is down since 3 hours

[hasty iron]

then stop using replit

[slate swan]

thinking so..but you know reasons........

[hasty iron]

reasons?

[thick sigil]

There are plenty of very cheaps vps

[slate swan]

I mean I am just a student and am not allowed to spend money on vps etc.....

[hasty iron]

then selfhost

[sullen shoal]

there are kids on discord giving people free hosting by buying one or two vps you may search for them. their service last for like a month or so then most of them get bankrupt

[slate swan]

not possible

[hasty iron]

then don’t host a bot

[slate swan]

[trim briar]

@sullen shoal what is the withspace that you are using

[sullen shoal]

it just an function argument
if they type withspace after the prefix, the code will add a space after the prefix. however in my code i forgot to add something so rn if you type anything after the prefix, it will add a white space

[trim briar]

so could I use the same with my prefix?

[errant shuttle]

this is still not working

@client.command()
async def join(ctx):
    channel = ctx.author.voice.channel
    await channel.connect()

[sullen shoal]

https://github.com/m-y-x-i/Kreklie-discord-bot/blob/bcd6119c5f0403938b6348c26847dbe535a396de/cogs/server.py#L20
this line should be,
if withspace and withspace.lower() == 'withspace':

[unkempt canyon]

cogs/server.py line 20

if withspace:```

[sullen shoal]

you could

[trim briar]

but could you give me an example of how exactly would I have to use it?

[errant shuttle]

here is the error

which library?

[trim briar]

PyNaCl

[errant shuttle]

opus?

[hasty iron]

read

[trim briar]

wait one sec

[errant shuttle]

oh

pynacl

[hasty iron]

pynacl isnt opus

!pypi PyNaCl

[unkempt canyon]

PyNaCl v1.4.0

Python binding to the Networking and Cryptography (NaCl) library

[errant shuttle]

btw any idea how i can use strip_after_prefix?

[hasty iron]

why do you want to use it

[errant shuttle]

to make the command better

[hasty iron]

what?

[sullen shoal]

okay let me try to give you an example then
lets say x is your db,

def prefix(prefix, space = None):
  if space is not None and space.lower() == 'withspace':
    x.set(prefix+' ')
  else:
    x.set(prefix)

[heavy folio]

how do i use ephemeral messages for my bot? i cant find the lib for that

[sullen shoal]

now if someone does,
.prefix kk
the prefix will be kk
and if .prefix kk withspace
it will be, kk

[heavy folio]

also since for ephemeral messages to work, they have to respond to an interaction so how do i check if a button is pressed or not

[trim briar]

oh understood

[heavy folio]

wait, since prefix can be a string, why not just do .prefix "kk ", then you dont need the space arg

[hasty iron]

what even is this

[reef shell]

you need to use callback for this

[hasty iron]

why is it "withspace"

[heavy folio]

also ^

[heavy folio]

and ^

[hasty iron]

you dont have to bump them

[sullen shoal]

most prefix commands arent like that so users may get confused other than that if that works, you could do that

[reef shell]

!d discord.ui.Button.callback

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.Button.callback

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

The callback associated with this UI item.

This can be overriden by subclasses.

[heavy folio]

could someone send the link for the lib for ephemeral messages

[reef shell]

do you not see what I'm redirecting you to?

[trim briar]

But I use json rather than dbs. I know it kind of sounds dumb but didn't really needed db so I didn't use it. Only thing is that the .set thing, how do you do that in json

[hasty iron]

you need a db

[trim briar]

Which is better? - MySQL or SQLite

[errant shuttle]

SQLite

[hasty iron]

postgresql

[sullen shoal]

well i basically in that line tried to add a value to the my db, irl i would do it this was if it was json,

db = {}
db[str(guild.id)] = prefix```

[errant shuttle]

cuz its already included in python

[trim briar]

hmm

[errant shuttle]

you should use sqlite for money system in python

[trim briar]

thanks for info

but don't really need a money sys

[hasty iron]

use a db eitherway

[trim briar]

I will try something with json though but if I get my head stuck around too long, then well It's time for a db

[trim briar]

thanks for the help, I'll try it but first gotta eat lunch

[slate swan]

time = datetime.datetime.utcnow().strftime('[%Y/%b/%d - %I:%M %p]')

I have this but, It's 3 hours behind my timezone, How do I fix it please?

[boreal ravine]

Maybe because u did UTC? Idk if that affects anything.

[heavy folio]

how do i make a command require roles from different servers? im using if statements to check

or i can actually do @commands.has_any_role() but idk how to send an error message if the user doesnnt have any of the roles

[spring flax]

why though

[sullen shoal]

is utc time needed?

[spring flax]

error handler

     fullamount = len(rconpayload)
     pamount = 0
     amount = 2000
     limit = 2000
     text = []
     while True:
       if fullamount >= limit:
        text.append(rconpayload[pamount:amount])
        fullamount -= limit
        pamount += limit
        amount += limit
        if fullamount <= limit:
          text.append(rconpayload[pamount:])
          break
     for part in text:
       await ctx.send(part)```

Okay ik this is techniclly for python, but I made this quick script meant to cut parts of string too long to be sent in a discord message by a bot. So i dont get the "invalid body field" error

Anyone knows how to make python not cut words in half since it reads charactors? not words?

[hasty iron]

because its utc..?

[slate swan]

cuz it does this

[sullen shoal]

split it by space then remove some items of it?

[slate swan]

wait so u mean..

[sullen shoal]

"i am myxi".split()[:1]

[slate swan]

oh fr

i never used split before

wait i lied

[slate swan]

yeah my timezone is ksa, And there is no ksa in datetime

[slate swan]

So like split it at the 2000 charector mark?

character*

near*

[lone lichen]

Use pytz for timezones

[slate swan]

😢

k ty

[lone lichen]

Np

[sullen shoal]

well the logic will be a bit longer than just a simple if statement if you need some advanced splitting

[slate swan]

hmm

I think i see what u mena

@sullen shoal does python have an attribute for reading words withing a strng?

or am i gonna have to script that myself

by making it read spaces

?

[sullen shoal]

words are splitted by space right?

[slate swan]

correct

[sullen shoal]

just split it by space then its a list of words

Hi, I have a question because I have error handling of command which saves errors to file and I want to get arguments used in command.
So how can I get arguments used in Spectate command from Spectate.error?
For example let's say someone wrote $Spectate br user and there is an error in the function how to save what this person wrote, like: ("br", "user")
My code is:

    @Spectate.error
    async def on_error(self, ctx: commands.Context, err: commands.CommandError):
        if isinstance(err, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            await ctx.send(f"This command is on cooldown. Please try again after {round(err.retry_after, 1)} seconds.")
        else:
            self.Spectate.reset_cooldown(ctx)
            await ctx.send(
                f"Unknown error, please try using $desync and $sync again, if it still doesn't work try using this "
                f"command later or report this issue using `report` command")
            self.LeagueStats.error_log(ctx, traceback.format_exc()) # this function saves error as file.

[lone lichen]

Split the string, then count the items in the list

[lone lichen]

Try error.args

[tough wagon]

you can use ctx.message.content

it returns string &Spectrate br user

[wheat moth]

@tough wagon ty

[slate swan]

Ah, i have an idea in my head on what to do after splitting them like u said

But i just realized this is going to require more then just a couple if statements

[lone lichen]

A for loop

[slate swan]

I feel like im gonna need another for loop here

[wheat moth]

@lone lichen well ty for answer, but it gave me args of error in particular part of code not the command itself

[lone lichen]

Yea I thought you needed names of arguments not the ones user put in, my bad

[wheat moth]

np

Is there something I can do?

@lone lichen alright thank you. I'm gonna have to do some big brain thinking for a second to formulate how im going to count the charectors in each item, then before it passes the charecter limit it cuts the string and save that part to a new list.

[lone lichen]

? Just iterate through list and count iterations

[lone lichen]

Ohh you need to count characters for each word?

Yea that will be a bested for loop

Nested*

[sullen shoal]

the code will look spaghetti and i might prolly think of a better sol of it if i try later but heres what in my head,
get the len() of the string, then store it in var, x
then split it by space, iterate over it, do len() on every iteration then len(iteration) - x
when x hits 0, break the loop

[slate swan]

ooo that could work

"the code will look spaghetti" indeed

[tough wagon]

sum([len(item) from item in iterable]) not better?

[lone lichen]

@slate swan here u go

[slate swan]

aw u gave me the code >:C

i wanted to do some big brain thinking

[tough wagon]

lol

[slate swan]

but i apperciate the code, im not gonna complain

lol

[slate swan]

so is this after i split the strng right?

string*

[lone lichen]

Yes

This will get u total number of characters in a list of strings basically

[slate swan]

right

Its like grabbing charectors in a slist

Now what I can do is

[sullen shoal]

isnt that just len(string)? :thining

[lone lichen]

No cus It’ s in a list

[slate swan]

If the charectors exceed the charector limit, I can remove that LATEST item and copy the rest into a different list, and with a loop i can automate the this process

Sounds about right?

[sullen shoal]

is sum and summ different 🤔

[lone lichen]

Yea try that

[slate swan]

alr bet

[unkempt canyon]

sum

sum(iterable, /, start=0)```
Sums *start* and the items of an *iterable* from left to right and returns the total. The *iterable*’s items are normally numbers, and the start value is not allowed to be a string.

For some use cases, there are good alternatives to [`sum()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#sum "sum"). The preferred, fast way to concatenate a sequence of strings is by calling `''.join(sequence)`. To add floating point values with extended precision, see [`math.fsum()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html#math.fsum "math.fsum"). To concatenate a series of iterables, consider using [`itertools.chain()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.chain "itertools.chain").

Changed in version 3.8: The *start* parameter can be specified as a keyword argument.

[slate swan]

also what is summ?

[tough wagon]

me noobest noob in world

i forgot that it is sum

[tough wagon]

edited

[sullen shoal]

i gotta try somehting hmm

[slate swan]

oh ok

[lone lichen]

Lemme see

[tough wagon]

it's not different, there is no summ i did a mistake

[lone lichen]

Ohh lmao

[sullen shoal]

!e

iterable = ['eweef','wfwefw','wfwewf']
s = ''.join(iterable)
print(summ([len(item) from item in iterable]))
print(len(s)```

[sullen shoal]

lol

as i said its same as that

[tough wagon]

sum!

[lone lichen]

Ayo u can do that???

[sullen shoal]

yeah i was wondering why master sent that code

if you just use len()

[slate swan]

Overcomplicating things episode 324

[lone lichen]

324 already?

[sullen shoal]

the code they sent basically wont count the whitespaces

[slate swan]

Yusss

[tough wagon]

uh, I forgot about join, dumb me

[dapper cobalt]

That's very true.

[lone lichen]

U could just add len(list) -1 for spaces

[sullen shoal]

all the whitespaces

in the string

[lone lichen]

Yes?

[tough wagon]

over xd funny jokes episode 667

[sullen shoal]

that will just subtract 1 from len

one sec

[lone lichen]

It will be the amount of spaces in the original string

Since he used split

[hasty iron]

huh?

[lone lichen]

And it splited where whitespaces are

[hasty iron]

cant you just strip the whitespaces

!d str.strip

[unkempt canyon]

str.strip

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

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

[sullen shoal]

!e

iterable = ['eweef','wfwefw','wfwewf']
s = ' '.join(iterable)
print(sum([len(item) for item in iterable]))

oops

[lone lichen]

No, he wanna count whitespaces that were removed with split function

[hasty iron]

why?

that seems super useless

[sullen shoal]

now lets try that

[lone lichen]

Ayo

Why tf did we put string in a list to count all It’ s characters @slate swan

[sullen shoal]

!e

iterable = ['eweef','wfwefw','wfwewf']
s = ' '.join(iterable)
print(len(s))
print(sum([len(item) for item in iterable]))
print(len(s)-1)```

[unkempt canyon]

@sullen shoal :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | 19
002 | 17
003 | 18

[lone lichen]

Lmfao

[hasty iron]

wtf are you even doing

[lone lichen]

Bro just do len(original_string)

[lone lichen]

We overcomplicating shit

[sullen shoal]

im just pointing out that this wont work for all whitespaces in the string

[lone lichen]

I get it but y even do all that shit if u can do len(string)

[hasty iron]

if you want the amount of whitespaces removed, just len the original string then strip whitespaces and then len it again and substract to get the amount

[sullen shoal]

yeah ik

[lone lichen]

He wanted to make system so it splits too long messages and we overcomplicated it so bad

[sullen shoal]

well no if you want to do that, just do, len('wlef fewbkfwf efkwjbfwjf'.replace(' ', ''))

[hasty iron]

strip can do that?

[sullen shoal]

no

[hasty iron]

read the first example

[sullen shoal]

it strips from starting and ending only

[hasty iron]

what?

[lone lichen]

What is there is 3 whitespaces

[hasty iron]

!e ```
string = " h"
print(string.strip())

[unkempt canyon]

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

h

[hasty iron]

???

[sullen shoal]

im not talking about that

[lone lichen]

U two talking bout two different things

U both right

[sullen shoal]

im talking about all the white spaces in the string, not in index 0 and :-1

[hasty iron]

!e ```
string = "h e l l o "
print(string.strip())

[unkempt canyon]

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

h e l l o

blanket is trying to say his way is more efficent
