[odd pendant]

for consistency

[hasty iron]

what?

[slate swan]

No not that

I'm just in shock

[slate swan]

then?..

[odd pendant]

because a command works?

[slate swan]

No

Because a command closes a window

[hasty iron]

a window?

[odd pendant]

probably the console for the bot when it closes

dk why it closes tho

[slate swan]

i wont be too shocked if they say the command prompt

[hasty iron]

because the program stopped?

[odd pendant]

I guess but usually it would just say that it exited and wait for keypress

maybe that's just me tho

[slate swan]

bRUH

PYTHON IS COOL

[boreal ravine]

it isnt

[odd pendant]

rust is cooler

[boreal ravine]

use typescript

more cooler

[lilac latch]

It is but Bash is still the 1st for me

Wish if coding bots was possible in bash

[slate swan]

whats bash?

[lilac latch]

dies

[slate swan]

the cool hacking stuff?

[lilac latch]

Yeah

[slate swan]

rly?

[lilac latch]

Yes sir

[slate swan]

revived

[lilac latch]

xD

[slate swan]

😄

[lilac latch]

Lmao good joke tho it wasn't a joke

[slate swan]

i want to do something like this but it error what i should type in use and set key to None?

[slate swan]

What are you even trying to do

This is like really weird to understand and seems messy

Can you make that number start from zero again at 12 every night?

[boreal ravine]

what are u tryna do?

GUYS WHAT IS Key for?

[wraith bay]

How to make a antilinks?

[dapper cobalt]

Check if 'http' or any known domain is in the message.content.

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.utils.get is not async iirc.

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.get

discord.utils.get(iterable, **attrs)```
A helper that returns the first element in the iterable that meets all the traits passed in `attrs`. This is an alternative for [`find()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.utils.find "discord.utils.find").

When multiple attributes are specified, they are checked using logical AND, not logical OR. Meaning they have to meet every attribute passed in and not one of them.

To have a nested attribute search (i.e. search by `x.y`) then pass in `x__y` as the keyword argument.

If nothing is found that matches the attributes passed, then `None` is returned.

Examples

Basic usage...

[wraith bay]

thanks :D

[slate swan]

Yeah it's not a coroutine

[willow vine]

when i run my code locally, its working fine, but when i deploy it on heroku it throws a file not found error
can someone help me with this

[slate swan]

Don't host on Heroku

But anyways

How is your files structure

[willow vine]

i want to know why its throwing an error

[slate swan]

and what's in your Procfile

[willow vine]

this is the procfile working: python main.py

[slate swan]

Shouldn't be working but worker

[willow vine]

this is my file structure, im trying to read a png file using fr"icon/{name}"

[slate swan]

^

[willow vine]

i don't this thats the issue since all other stuff is working fine

its just having an error with files

[slate swan]

it's worker

not

working

Not chaning that won't make your bot work better in any way either

So change it please

If you don't even listen to what we say why would we help you further

And yes it might be the issue because working might be used for something else and the files structure for that is maybe not the same

And that's all I'll say because you seem to be subborn and have a big ego, and I don't want to waste further time with that

[willow vine]

i just asked the doubt, yu were being stubborn in the first place...

[slate swan]

And since it's a reminder bot, you know that heroku clears all your files at midnight and get everything again from your repository right?

im trying to check if the bot can ping all the guild members but it only pings itself while theirs 2 more users the code:

for member in ctx.guild.members:
        await ctx.send("member"f"{member.mention}")

Enable members intent

!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]

thanks im going to check

[willow vine]

oh, i didn't know that, thanks.. but the file error still isn't solved, and im curious as to why its throwing that error

[slate swan]

it worked thank you

[brave flint]

Well does we can summon friend to our voice chat on guilds?

[zenith laurel]

Does anyone know if there's currently a "best" library that implements slash commands, or one that seems to be pulling ahead in terms of quality? Last I looked there were several, and I know that the maintainer of discord.py is opposed to implementing them in his library and his library was previously the standard

[slate swan]

You can't force someone to join a voice chat

[brave flint]

Okay thanks

[slate swan]

discord-py-interactions

[reef shell]

I use edpy , but i can't recommend any forks yet

[wispy spade]

There isn't really a best right now, grounds are still shaky on that.

[reef shell]

they have implemented the slash commands

[slate swan]

disnake

[wispy spade]

although you could probably look at stuff like dislash or disnake or Nextcord or Pycord, or the many others out there.

[slate swan]

To be fair I would not use a fork and use another language xD

Forks are quite often a mehh option

[slate swan]

.

[reef shell]

time.sleep() is a blocking function , don't use it

[reef shell]

use asyncio.sleep() instead

[slate swan]

ember.fields[index]?

[sick wedge]

i try natives value and the error comes up

[willow vine]

from datetime import datetime

if datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M")=="00:00":
  num=0

im not sure but this should work

[sick birch]

I feel like it might take a while for a standard fork to come up, in the meanwhile you can accomplish context menus and slash commands with a mix of raw API and discord.py

e. g manual registration using the API combined with on_interaction

!indents

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[boreal ravine]

pls dont copy code and expect it to work and this can work and to fix your code you just need to indent/re-indent things

do u know how to make this (smth like that for my bot)

    get_role:
        (role.id)```
how to add a role by command?

[wheat moth]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=create_role#discord.Guild.create_role

[covert lion]

ok thanks

i will remenber that

[slate swan]

is it possible to set image on the playing status of bots

[native maple]

afaik no

[slate swan]

Nope

[harsh mirage]

Hello! I will appriciate if someone could help me! I'm making an Add role system for my bot. Something like if you type !freerole1 it will give you specific role. Thanks!

[marble pilot]

    @commands.command()
    @commands.guild_only()
    @commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
    async def clear(self, ctx, amount):
        try:
            task_embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{amount} messages have been cleared.",
                                       color=discord.Colour.blue(),
                                       timestamp=ctx.message.created_at)

            await ctx.send(embed=error_embed)

Ok so im making a clear command and i want to send at the embed how many messages actually got deleted. Like if the input is 500 but there are only 10 messages in a channel then i dont want it to send "500 messages got cleared" i want it to send 10. Do i make a for loop for that or what?

[marble pilot]

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

[marble pilot]

@jaunty folio help please

srry didnt want to ping you

[harsh mirage]

dont work

line 5 error

[slate swan]

purge method returns the list of messages deleted

So store it, and get it's length

Then you know how many messages got deleted

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge returns a list of the messages that got deleted. You can use the len() function to get their amount.

[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...

[dapper cobalt]

Ah. Already solved, my bad.

[slate swan]

Pretty sure there's also an example on the documentation

So you can check it out there

[marble pilot]

uh show me error?

[marble pilot]

Thank you. Did not know that it actually returns that

[dapper cobalt]

ctx.guild.get_role(role_id).

[marble pilot]

Hm my solution works for me

[dapper cobalt]

Why did you define user?

[marble pilot]

just created a var

to store ctx.author

[slate swan]

Slows down

[dapper cobalt]

Pretty useless.

[slate swan]

If you only use it once

[dapper cobalt]

And yes, slows down the process.

[marble pilot]

Yeah i know lol

[slate swan]

Just remove it, redundant stuff

[marble pilot]

ok

[dapper cobalt]

role = ctx.guild.get_role(role_id)
await ctx.author.add_roles(role)

Or

await ctx.author.add_roles(ctx.guild.get_role(role_id))

[slate swan]

xD

[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.

[slate swan]

Save it as a variable and then use .send() on it

heeelp

[slate swan]

Give code, error, etc.

Sorry but I don't quite understand, but using .join in a for loop is not really useful

idk what to do

[waxen granite]

this is my json content

[slate swan]

I'd say loop trough them, and append the counter and current link to a string

ok den

Because doing a loop and using .join is probably not what you want to do

[waxen granite]

hm

[slate swan]

You basically always overwrite

Because as you can see both URLs have \n\n{counter which is 2, so the last iteration}. in-between them

[slate swan]

Can i create a Discord Bot that records audio from voice channels and send it to a particular channel?

[slate swan]

like maybe a voice logging bot

What's the rate limit for rainbow role color? (ping me)

[brisk fiber]

discord has said not to do rainbow roles

they overload the api

[slate swan]

😢

But it's cool

It may be cool but it's bad

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Kraots answer Gurudatta's question, I wanna know the answer 🙂

[slate swan]

.

[slate swan]

You can't as of right now

FUCK

But from what I've heard bots will get voice receiving in the future

[slate swan]

sad

Idk when exactly since it's not really a topic that interests me

i thought i could make it w/ pypiwin32.

Nope, you can only do that on a user account

[slate swan]

Bots don't yet have the voice receive endpoint

[slate swan]

sad

@<>discord plz add zaat zing ok?

[slow cove]

Anyone free to hop into a chat with me and help me out? Just started to dip my toe into the water of Python and am following freeCodeCamp's basic tutorial, but im hitting a snag

[fallow mauve]

lets say i want to test if someone has reacted to the bots message with a specific emoji and if they have then it deletes it, how would i do that?

[main lotus]

there is a specific function called on_reaction_add(reaction, user) but I think its for the bot

like the bot puts the reaction and user reacts to it

[fallow mauve]

thats what i want

but then what goes after that?

[main lotus]

alright

you can use if statement

like

if reaction.emoji == "some_emoji":

[fallow mauve]

ok

thx so much

[main lotus]

no problem

[main lotus]

haha even I am watching a crash course on python

[fallow mauve]

what do i have to import before it will work?

[main lotus]

only discord I suppose

gimme a sec

[fallow mauve]

it says undefined name "reaction"

[main lotus]

did you give reaction as a parameter?

[fallow mauve]

?

[main lotus]

something like this

[fallow mauve]

oh yeah i forgot, im testing it on an existing command so i forgot to do that

[main lotus]

no probs haha, it should work now

[fallow mauve]

atually it doesnt

*actually

[main lotus]

oh

[fallow mauve]

code:

@Bot.command()
async def test(ctx, reaction, user):
  await ctx.send(":EBshapethink: :EBredthink: :EBbluethink:")
  await ctx.add_reaction(":EBright:")

  if reaction.emoji == ":EBright:":
    await ctx.edit("lol")

error:

[main lotus]

right my bad I forgot to mention something

[fallow mauve]

ok

what

[main lotus]

so

for on_reaction_add to work
the bot itself will need to add reactions to a message
and then when the user reacts, then something will happen
I have tried to do with user simply adding the reaction for which a task is assigned to a bot
but it gave error

[slow cove]

like im just trying to get this to work, but they changed the command to tell the script what the OS key is so i followed that and i get just None in the output

Like... am i reading something wrong?

[eager tapir]

first wheres the token

[fallow mauve]

"await ctx.add_reaction" is in there

[fallow mauve]

lmao

[slow cove]

thats what 'hal' is

[main lotus]

hey I got it

ok so you have simply done ctx.add_reaction

you need to tell where

[fallow mauve]

so...

[eager tapir]

maybe paste the token here and it will work

[main lotus]

so you will need a statement like

message = await ctx.send(":EBshapethink: :EBredthink: :EBbluethink:")
await message.add_reaction(":EBright:")

[fallow mauve]

Bot.run(os.getenv("hal"))

[main lotus]

@fallow mauve

[haughty sedge]

yo

[haughty sedge]

Halloween is coming!!

[fallow mauve]

im editing it

[main lotus]

client
you gave client

[slow cove]

thats what the client is

[main lotus]

just put client.run

[fallow mauve]

what does that have to do with #discord-bots

[haughty sedge]

oh wait wrong channel

[fallow mauve]

lol

[haughty sedge]

wait wrong server

[main lotus]

alright

[fallow mauve]

lmao

[slow cove]

Im using Replit and they changed how that command works

yet when i do that, thats when i get the None message

[main lotus]

have you set it correctly?

None could be because TOKEN has no value

[fallow mauve]

replace it with client.run(os.getenv("hal"))

did you make it a variable in the secrets tab?

[slow cove]

thats what gave me the big red spit out of dooooom

[slow cove]

and yes its in the secrets as a variable

[fallow mauve]

this one

?

[slow cove]

eeeyup

[fallow mauve]

hmm

do you have the token right?

[slow cove]

Im pretty dang sure i do

[fallow mauve]

are all letters in the variable capitalized correctly

[main lotus]

well it would give key error or something if it didnt

[slow cove]

copied straight from the discord website

[fallow mauve]

hmm

idk

[main lotus]

ahh

[slow cove]

Like unless im being a total boob head and have done a total blodie

[main lotus]

see the value box must have the token

not Hal

[fallow mauve]

you have the key and value switched

[slow cove]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

[fallow mauve]

lol

[main lotus]

you got it xD

[slow cove]

I

Am

an Idiot

[main lotus]

dw about it

I did the same thing once or twice too

xD

[slow cove]

Holy shit look at that, it works now!

[main lotus]

@fallow mauve did your command work?

[fallow mauve]

no

[main lotus]

good job haha

[fallow mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/white-chicks-hair-flip-shawn-marlon-gif-3568463

[fallow mauve]

code:

@Bot.command()
async def test(ctx, reaction, user):
  message = await ctx.send(":EBshapethink: :EBredthink: :EBbluethink:")
  await message.add_reaction(":EBright:")

  if reaction.emoji == ":EBright:":
    await ctx.edit("lol")

[main lotus]

ok I think the problem is that

if reaction.emoji == "something" must be in on_reaction_add

and not in the command itself

so your command will have just one parameter ctx
and the on_reaction_add will have reaction and user

as parameter

[fallow mauve]

i dont get it

:/

[main lotus]

no probs

lemme arrange some stuff

gimme a sec

[final iron]

@slow cove you shouldn't really be using repl. It's a bad idea

[fallow mauve]

ive never used reactions for any of my bots yet so i have no idea how this works lol

[slow cove]

This is literally my first dip into the python pool, I used to use a teeeeny bit of java like 13 years ago, so got any recommends?

[final iron]

Are you entering in reaction in the message?

[fallow mauve]

?

[main lotus]

@Bot.event()
async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user):
  if reaction.emoji == ":EBright:":
    await reaction.message.delete(user) # not sure if its purge or delete :/
      
@Bot.command()
async def test(ctx, reaction, user):
  message = await ctx.send(":EBshapethink: :EBredthink: :EBbluethink:")
  await message.add_reaction(":EBright:")

this is something like it

[final iron]

Whats the message are you using to trigger the command

[lapis lintel]

Run it on your pc

[main lotus]

I am not entirely sure about it but the flow will be something like this

[main lotus]

I do that haha
run it locally

[slow cove]

as in CMD?

[main lotus]

yeah

[lapis lintel]

Yes

[main lotus]

you could use powershell too. more or less the same as cmd

[final iron]

Reaction and user are required arguments. You're not entering them in

[slow cove]

well thats a whole kettle of fish ive got not idea how to do, like where would i store the key? would that be a file i make in notepad or sumtin?

now you guys got me doing the hacker stuff

https://tenor.com/view/hacker-typing-hacking-computer-codes-gif-17417874

[main lotus]

you could store it in notepad yes
But you will have to use open(file, mode) to read from that file and put it in the main program

[wintry shore]

Umm just use windows terminal its way more better than ps or cmd and idk why it isnt preinstalled on win 10

[fallow mauve]

i gtg eat lunch, b back in a few

[main lotus]

or you could just setup an environment variable file and then import dotenv
from there you can use load_dotenv to load that file and then os.getenv to get that variable

[lapis lintel]

you can store the token in a txt, and make a function in a separate file that would grab the contents of the txt file and return it, and then store that in a TOKEN variable and then do client.run(TOKEN)

[slow cove]

I am so lost, so for now, just to learn the basics i think ill stick to Replit, but ill defs look into that as a solution down the track

[lapis lintel]

At least that's what I used to do if I knew someone was going to see the code, or else i just put the token on the code

[slow cove]

When it comes to actually hosting the bot though, is it possible to host it locally and have it run off my machine instead of paying for a hosting site?

[lapis lintel]

What is that lol

[slow cove]

Do forgive me ive literally had less than an hour experience at this 😄 😄 😄 😄

[brisk fiber]

it’d be interrupted if your machine turned off, went to sleep, or changed networks

[main lotus]

if you do put token in the code directly
dont put it online accidentally
I once did the same thing
I had the token in the main program itself and then I uploaded file to github haha

[lapis lintel]

Sure, just that if you want to host it 24/7 you need internet and your computer running 24/7 too

[wintry shore]

U domt know about windows terminal (btw its official) its basically like a linux terminal but for windows

[lapis lintel]

I think we've all done that lol

[main lotus]

I will check it out

[lapis lintel]

Any links?

[main lotus]

xD

[brisk fiber]

you could host it on a raspberry pi

[lapis lintel]

That's a better option

[wintry shore]

the microsoft store lol, iirc its preinstalled on win 11

[main lotus]

Ooof

[brisk fiber]

that’s what i’m doing (hosting on a pi)

[slow cove]

Ive got a couple of old workstation computers that I was planning to use when i get a home server set up

[main lotus]

haha I was planning to setup a google cloud server for my bot
don't know much tho, its simply an idea

[slow cove]

Mine im making because a friend of mine made me one, was a ass hole to me, we had a fight, so out of spite she removed it. when my admins on my server use it QUITE FREQUENTLY

[main lotus]

also it reminds me
arduino? for hosting? possible?
would be cool for testing haha

[slow cove]

so now out of spite im teaching MYSELF python >:C

[main lotus]

oh mann
that's one hell of a reason

dw you will get it eventually

[slow cove]

It seems pretty simple compared to other languages ive seen

and a lot of my mates that use it praise it's versatility

[main lotus]

python is easier compared to other langs haha

[slow cove]

so the bot im trying to make is one that generates a random single use invite code for my server which I can then provide to peeps joining it to prevent code spreading

[main lotus]

that's a nice idea

I wouldn't know though
I haven't explored that part of discord.py yet

[slow cove]

how does one explore discord.py ?

[main lotus]

the documentation

stackoverflow

connect things, make shit haha

[slow cove]

where do i find that 👉 👈

[main lotus]

google it

[slow cove]

Okay ❤️

[main lotus]

Idk how to work with JSON yet 😅 kinda clueless

[slow cove]

https://tenor.com/view/pulp-fiction-smoke-pulp-fiction-ron-gif-18855574

Thank you @main lotus

[main lotus]

[rare saddle]

How to make a slash command for a discord bot with a cog system?

[quasi pawn]

How do I prevent the cooldown from triggering if the command encountered an error?

[wintry shore]

Create a bool
in you cooldown check for that bool
if ur command encountered and error then set the bool to False, simple!

[hasty iron]

reset the cooldown if an error is encountered

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.reset_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.reset\_cooldown

reset_cooldown(ctx)```
Resets the cooldown on this command.

[quasi pawn]

I see, thanks

[rare saddle]

What is the mistake, please tell me

[lapis lintel]

What are you doing with that json?

[hasty iron]

another slash command with the name "slash" already exists

[wraith bay]

ñ

[hasty iron]

oh wait nvm

[lapis lintel]

?

[hasty iron]

its the self.slash = … line that’s causing the error, you probably dont need it so remove it

[waxen granite]

saving channel ids

[rare saddle]

Why did I create a command, add a bot to the server, but there is still no command?

[lapis lintel]

I guess you convert the json to a dict so maybe you can use dict.pop()

[waxen granite]

well i figured it out

had to pop the key

welcome

[dense swallow]

a weird doubt, can u change the name of the bot role to a new one from dev portal?

[waxen granite]

yes

or wait

u mean one that is created when the bot joins the server?

if so, nope

[inland wedge]

Anyone has experience with python and replit i built a webscraping script and i used selenium and chromium for it, it worked past few days but today it suddenly stopped working, it endless loads the page and it says request timed out

[dense swallow]

Yeah

I renamed my bot, so I wish to change the existing role name of bot

[true horizon]

how to create a command to check if a member has a certain role type 'if member.role == 'staff': ctx.send('Congratulations you are a staff')
else:
ctx.send('You are not a staff. Press F for more respect')

[waxen granite]

you have to rejoin your bot

[dense swallow]

Then only it updates?

[fallow mauve]

it wont edit the message when i react

and theres no error

[waxen granite]

yes

[hasty iron]

get the role you want from Guild.get_role by passing in the id and and then you can check if role_that_you_got in Member.roles

[slate swan]

Anyone tell me about encode ?

[main lotus]

ctx.channel.purge(limit=x) where x is some number

[solid summit]

That would delete any message, not the command message.

[slate swan]

why

[queen heart]

Anyone can help me with python bot.

[slate swan]

.

[queen heart]

?

[slate swan]

yes

[queen heart]

Where can i paste my error?

[manic wing]

here

[queen heart]

ok

you need a {} in your json

[slate swan]

I'd like to start programming but I don't like that they use if instead of whenever

so I'm not gonna do that

[queen heart]

Bruh, i have a {} in my json

[queen heart]

Thank you i tottaly forgot 😅

[true horizon]

I can't create a permission check for the command could they help me?

[slate swan]

you can use @commands.has_role()

as a decorator

or use role = guild.get_role(id) first and then paste it in if role in mu.author.roles

[true horizon]

I've used it this way before, but I want to refine the error when a member doesn't have the role.

[true horizon]

Ok

[clear rapids]

I want to host my discord bot online but all the services are paid , does anyone here knows about any free services where I can host my bot for free??
I tried replit but it shuts down after 1 hr

from flask import Flask
from threading import Thread

app = Flask('')

@app.route('/')
def home():
return 'Hello. I am alive!!'

def run():
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8080)

def keep_alive():
t = Thread(target=run)
t.start() I'm using this on replit to keep my bot alive but it is also not working

[slate swan]

Heroku > replit

[queen heart]

DisCloud

[clear rapids]

tried this too but It also require paid membership after some time

[queen heart]

Discloud bruh

[reef shell]

Just use another account if that's the issue

[clear rapids]

oh okah , I'll try it

[slate swan]

Just create 2 accounts and whenever one runs out of dynos switch to the other

That's what I'm doing

[broken dirge]

Thank you 😆

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[reef shell]

also heroku psql is cool , at least it's free

[clear rapids]

hm but on the long run it is not practical

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[reef shell]

you need a vps for long run

[slate swan]

^

If you really want long run then you have to buy it

[reef shell]

and there are some cheap vps out there

[slate swan]

^

Like the host that @unkempt canyon is hosted on

Iirc it's hosted on linode

Ovh is yet another good and extremely cheap host

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

wouldn't check for roles then

but if he has built up a good logic, then yes

[queen heart]

i have this error idk why

[lapis lintel]

Are there any things I should do with my bot if i want to host it online rather than adding commands like

@client.command()
async def foo(ctx):
  print('Hello')

[reef shell]

hosting your bot has nothing to do with adding commands

[lapis lintel]

I've seen many python open source discord bots that and rarely they do simple stuff like commands and those things, they have these huge files where they connect and do bunch of things, is there something im missing that a public discord bot has to have?

[clear rapids]

have you tried guild.create_voice_channel

[lapis lintel]

https://github.com/thomas-xin/Miza

I mean, check this bot it has a lot of things, the bot has its own class and extends from discord.Client, what's the need and should I do it or should i just follow what the docs say?

[shut axle]

Like this?

@client.command(aliases=['cv'])
async def createvoice(ctx, channelName):
    await ctx.message.delete()
    guild = ctx.guild
    embed = discord.Embed(
        title='Success!',
        description='`{}` has been successfully created.'.format(channelName),
        color=discord.Color.green())
    if ctx.author.guild_permissions.manage_channels:
        await guild.create_voice_channel(name='{}'.format(channelName))
        await ctx.send(embed=embed, delete_after=5)
    else:
        await ctx.send("{}, you are missing permissions.".format(
            ctx.author.name),
                       delete_after=5)

channel*

[reef shell]

you can customize some behavior and functionality of your bot by sub-classing discord.Client or discord.ext.commands.Bot

[shut axle]

guild = ctx.guild
nothing with that? @clear rapids

[reef shell]

!d discord.Guild.create_voice_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_voice\_channel

await create_voice_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, position=..., bitrate=..., user_limit=..., rtc_region=..., video_quality_mode=..., overwrites=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

This is similar to [`create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel "discord.Guild.create_text_channel") except makes a [`VoiceChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel "discord.VoiceChannel") instead.

[clear rapids]

async def cv(guild , channel_name , category_name = 'VOICECHANNEL',user_limit = 10):

[reef shell]

that's too much to do

[clear rapids]

and then await guild.create_text_channel(challen_name , category = category)

[reef shell]

you don't need the guild parameter

[clear rapids]

wait leme write full code

[shut axle]

ok

[reef shell]

as you can access it by Context.guild

[shut axle]

Are you typing it?

[clear rapids]

@client.command(aliases=['cv'])

try this @shut axle

[shut axle]

Okay

[reef shell]

you can remove that guild parameter

[clear rapids]

I have edited it , I forgot to add voice

[shut axle]

Yeah

i see

[broken dirge]

Where do I place ous=True? dexcom = Dexcom("username", "password") # add ous=True if needed

[reef shell]

what?

what is this

[clear rapids]

ous?

[broken dirge]

I'm using dexcom API and I need to place ous=True

I just don't know where

[reef shell]

is this related to discord bots?

[broken dirge]

sorry!

[clear rapids]

sorry , not familiar with that api

[reef shell]

never heard about that tbh

[broken dirge]

No, problem. Thank you anyways!

[broken dirge]

thats a very niche thing

[clear rapids]

does it work?

[shut axle]

Nah

no errors

[clear rapids]

did you fix where I mistyped get as het?

[shut axle]

but I think it is related to

category = get_category_by_name(guild , 'any category name in the channel')
channel = get_channel_by_name = (guild , channel_name)

the get_category_by_name and get_channel_by_name

@clear rapids

[clear rapids]

wht?

no category is different

and channel name is the name of that voice channel

[shut axle]

But it is not working...

[clear rapids]

well I guess I have to finally import discord.py

😅

[shut axle]

??

[clear rapids]

hm nothin , I was just doing it roughly before

[shut axle]

.format(channel_name) *

fixed

for ya

But What should I do ?

hm send me the code that you are using now

wait a min i'm trying

[ripe jackal]

intents.members = True

add this

typehint as discord.User and use guild.unban

[ripe jackal]

somewhere

[hasty iron]

although be careful, the user converter can call the API

[slim whale]

where?

[slim whale]

i dont understand xd

[ripe jackal]

where you want

mine is on top

[slim whale]

before the for?

[ripe jackal]

yes

[slim whale]

okkk

thanks

[ripe jackal]

np, try and tell me if it works

[slim whale]

okk

[slate swan]

member would be in a guild

how do you wanna unban somebody from a guild

by getting him from the guild

[slim whale]

oh true

[slate swan]

that you wanna unban him from

this is what i use

and on top the intents.members=True

[slim whale]

but mine is with more than 1 id

[ripe jackal]

oh, then I'm not sure

but make sure to add the intents thing

[slim whale]

so how it would be?

[hasty iron]

i told you

if u don’t know what typehinting is and you’re literally doing it, you need to revisit your code or whatever

[clear rapids]

put it anywhere in your program , it is a function , you can call it anywhere

[hasty iron]

use discord.utils.find

!d discord.utils.find

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.find

discord.utils.find(predicate, seq)```
A helper to return the first element found in the sequence that meets the predicate. For example:

```py
member = discord.utils.find(lambda m: m.name == 'Mighty', channel.guild.members)
```  would find the first [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") whose name is ‘Mighty’ and return it. If an entry is not found, then `None` is returned.

This is different from [`filter()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#filter "(in Python v3.9)") due to the fact it stops the moment it finds a valid entry.

what the

On the second func you need to change the channel = None

because it has taken

code is this py @bot.command() @commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True) async def unban(ctx, users: commands.Greedy[discord.User]): for user in users: await ctx.guild.unban(user) await ctx.channel.send(f"He desbaneado a: {user.mention} del servidor!")

maybe the user you got is not banned?

it is

Hey guys

[pliant gulch]

Your one to talk

👁️ 👅 👁️

[slate swan]

wat

[thorn heart]

Could a command ignore arguments after alias?

[hasty iron]

i write good python code

[thorn heart]

example: /hi Anthony
would normally execute async def hi(ctx):

[pliant gulch]

You could've opened your PR after you fixed your type errors

[hasty iron]

i didn’t know they were there

pylance didnt warn me

[clear rapids]

so what exactly you want to do

[pliant gulch]

pylance uses pyright

not mypy

[hasty iron]

mypy sucks

now merge pr

[thorn heart]

ughm i wanted to create a command /ball . typical 8-ball command but it should ignore arguments

[pliant gulch]

No I haven't reviewed it yet blanket

[thorn heart]

just replying with some message

[pliant gulch]

but can you review cooldowns I commited las tnight

[hasty iron]

so slow

ok

[thorn heart]

i ve done that already but i shouldve used (ctx, *, question) and it worked could i not use so much arguments that i dont actually use in def

[pliant gulch]

iirc, you don't need to have anything but ctx

discord.py will just ignore the extra words after the command, and the argument

[clear rapids]

oh like that ".'"?

[thorn heart]

nah i mean just ignore everythin after /ball

cuz last time i tried it it gives error

im not sure actually but

[thorn heart]

if this is true then im just stoopid

im new at python and bruh

[pliant gulch]

Try it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I remember it working like that

[hasty iron]

https://github.com/an-dyy/Lefi/pull/5#discussion_r726582141 fix this

[clear rapids]

okah , and whats your prefix?

[pliant gulch]

Let me guess, literal eval?

[paper bane]

if you don't declare extra parameters other than ctx, it won't parse the extra arguments and ignore them

[thorn heart]

command_prefix="/"

[hasty iron]

no

its just to make code cleaner

[pliant gulch]

wait what did you even link to

can you send the proper link

[hasty iron]

i just clicked a … on my review and clicked share

[pliant gulch]

Sends me to my comments

[hasty iron]

its in get_context

[clear rapids]

but why the hell will you add a command that you want to ignore if it is used????

[clear rapids]

just delete it

[paper bane]

ignore the extra arguments not the command itself

[thorn heart]

i mean ignore words after the command

[pliant gulch]

What's wrong with it

[thorn heart]

/ball Will Shawn eat rice in 20 minutes

[clear rapids]

oh I get it

[thorn heart]

SO it just runs async def ball(ctx)

[hasty iron]

you dont see this or whatever

[pliant gulch]

No I missed that comment

[hasty iron]

bruh

[pliant gulch]

I will change that yes

[hasty iron]

and also get_prefix still doesn’t check if its a coroutine function or not

[clear rapids]

you want it to run even if someone write something after /bal?

[thorn heart]

yes

[hasty iron]

the prefix that was passed in

[shut axle]

@clear rapids@clear rapids look

sure

[bright palm]

It takes the args as channel_name=Voice, guild=Channels, category_name=hello

[clear rapids]

hm okah

[hasty iron]

also commands should be able to make multiple checks

[pliant gulch]

Yea, it does allow multiple checks

Internally checks append to a list

[clear rapids]

which vc?

[harsh cradle]

anyone know how to slove it

[pliant gulch]

then in the handler it runs all

[clear rapids]

@shut axle

[shut axle]

Private

[hasty iron]

but you dont check in Command.__init__ for callback.checks

[pliant gulch]

I do

[shut axle]

On DM's

[pliant gulch]

what

[hasty iron]

huh

[pliant gulch]

I literally have a hasattr right there

[hasty iron]

thats for check

[unkempt canyon]

lefi/exts/commands/core/command.py lines 21 to 23

if hasattr(self.callback, "check"):
    self.checks.append(self.callback.check)  # type: ignore```

and it just appends

if its a list you have to extend

[clear rapids]

hm just join #code-help-voice-text

i have givelevel command and when i try it i get this:
raise BadArgument('Converting to "{}" failed for parameter "{}".'.format(name, param.name)) from exc
discord.ext.commands.errors.BadArgument: Converting to "Context" failed for parameter "ctx".

[pliant gulch]

You just decorate it multiple times

The deco returns the func, so you can keep adding on

[clear rapids]

code/help 0

[pliant gulch]

Although init runs once so I can just fix by making the deco append etc

or do command lookup via name

[pliant gulch]

Can prob do some hacky stuff with __call__

[hasty iron]

but it will override the last check

[pliant gulch]

Yea, I realized

[pliant gulch]

append as in making it a list

[hasty iron]

that’s what i was saying

[pliant gulch]

that's what i was saying

[hasty iron]

ok so

when you’re done do base class for ws

why do you have self

you do know what self is used for and when it’s used

[harsh cradle]

cuz i need it so this can work:
result = await self.find_or_insert_user(member)
**** cursor = await self.db.cursor()

[hasty iron]

this is a cog?

[harsh cradle]

no

[hasty iron]

what?

[harsh cradle]

do i need to make class?

[hasty iron]

it won’t work regardless

you seem to be confused on where self is used

do you actually know when we should add the self argument to a function?

should i just do embed.footer == None?

dont feel like that would work

if footer is None:
pass

like this?

that makes sense lol idk why i didnt think of it

[pliant gulch]

No your thinking about this the wrong way,

You check if footer is not None, this is good

And if its none, that's where you run embed.set_footer

Otherwise if the footer is None it will not run set_footer and the embed will not have a footer

Take the command out of the __init__ method

[slate swan]

What's the name of your file

econ.py

Folder?

[fallow mauve]

thx, just an indent, how did i not see that

mhm

[slate swan]

Can happen, also have this quite often in other languages xD

for filename in os.listdir('./commands'):
if filename.endswith('.py') and not filename.startswith('_'):
bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')
logging.info(f"loaded cog: {filename}")
ita already looking thru the folder

[fallow mauve]

yeah, its really easy to miss but it makes you feel stupid once you see it lmao

[slate swan]

Agreed

maybe because it doesnt have the pycache folder?

No

Maybe set a name to the cog after the commands.Cog in the class definition

Because the code seems normal, at least I can't spot anything

Create a list and eventually save it in a database or a JSON file if it's not too big

Append to the list

Remove from the list

Use random.choice

That's basic Python knowledge

so frustrating

[slate swan]

??

[slate swan]

Like name="econ"

just put that under self.bot = ?

https://developers.google.com/edu/python/lists

list = []
x = "l"
list.append(l) maybe

[slate swan]

No, after the commands.Cog in the class parameters

ohh i get what your saying

Have you learned Python before doing bots?

[slate swan]

I'd learn Python before directly starting with a bot

And I wouldn't stayed on discord.js

Because discord.py's development has been stopped

[slate swan]

.

i need help, i am using cogs with discord.py, (note: this has been happening even since discord.py was abandonded) everytime i use the "help" built-in command it freaks out on me and sends so many help messages at once, been trying to fix it for a while but have zero idea whats going on

[hardy yoke]

You should be using Motor not pymongo https://motor.readthedocs.io/
Pymongo is blocking, it'll stall your bot whenever it does anything which is obviously not ideal for a bot being used by multiple users at the same time
Motor is async and won't cause that problem.

try printing message and seeing what's in there. The code seems fine 2 me so it may be an issue with what's in the variable. Is there an error? Is the embed sending anything?

[hardy yoke]

have you modified the help cmd at all (subclassed it?)
if not, are you 100% sure you aren't running multiple instances of the bot?

[slate swan]

nope, 1000% sure

this has been on going for ever since i started

and its not only that, even if i remove the discord help and add my own named "help" it does the same

[hardy yoke]

do you use process_commands anywhere

[slate swan]

lemme check

[slate swan]

yes , once

[hardy yoke]

it can duplicate if you use it twice

idk then, can try asking in the d.py serv too https://discord.gg/dpy

[slate swan]

but why specifically with the use of "help"

everything else works fine

[final iron]

Because of the default help command

It's broken somehow

No idea how this managed to happen

[fallow mauve]

!d set

[unkempt canyon]

set

class set([iterable])``````py

class frozenset([iterable])```
Return a new set or frozenset object whose elements are taken from *iterable*. The elements of a set must be [hashable](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-hashable). To represent sets of sets, the inner sets must be [`frozenset`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#frozenset "frozenset") objects. If *iterable* is not specified, a new empty set is returned.

Sets can be created by several means:

• Use a comma-separated list of elements within braces: `{'jack', 'sjoerd'}`

• Use a set comprehension: `{c for c in 'abracadabra' if c not in 'abc'}`

• Use the type constructor: `set()`, `set('foobar')`, `set(['a', 'b', 'foo'])`...

Similar names: label.set

[slate swan]

is embed.description == "h" valid??

i'm trying to set the description based on a variable not add something to it

[slate swan]

oh i already fixed it LMAO

[final iron]

Just do discord.Embed(description=var)

[slate swan]

this is so wrong in so many levels

do what water_gazes said

[final iron]

== is checking for equality so no

[slate swan]

^^

anyone here know a good DB ?

[sick birch]

postgres

from what i've heard it's one of the best out there

[slate swan]

i see, i’ve used TinyDB before but never got it to go anywhere since my client backed out last second 😛

[pliant gulch]

Any database should be good

so as long as you use an async driver for it, as discord.py is an async environment

[slate swan]

what made you come up with lefi?

[hollow agate]

So, I have a database setup. How could I make a mute command (with time) that persists over a restart?

I have no idea what I need to store, nor how I check if the time has extended the database time.

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionNotFound: Extension 'cogs.econ' could not be loaded.
what could be the causes of this

class EconomyCMDS(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
    
    @commands.command()
    async def bal(self, ctx, member:discord.Member=None):
        member = ctx.author if not member else member        
        if member not in db.find_one({"user_id": member.id}):
                db.insert_one({
                    "user_id": member.id,
                    "bal": 0,
                    "bank": 0,
                    "inventory": [

                    ],
                    
                    
                })
                await ctx.reply("You have a balance of 0. Because you have just started using these commands")
        else:
            bal = db.find_one({"user_id": member.id})["bal"]
            bank = db.find_one({"user_id": member.id})["bank"]
            embed = discord.Embed(title="feature",description=f"`Balance:` **{bal}**\n`Bank:` **{bank}**")
            await ctx.reply(embed=embed)


def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(EconomyCMDS(bot))
``` thats the code in files with some imports obv

anyone got an idea when i do for member in ctx.guild.members with intents all on it only returns 9 members instead of the 70 members?

[slate swan]

why call yourself a Full Stack Developer
then lmao

[fallow mauve]

how do i whitelist a command for a user with a specific ID?

nvm

[pliant gulch]

The name or the wrapper itself?

[slate swan]

wrapper

[pliant gulch]

I've been seeing a lot of shitty forks recently and bad attempts

So I decided to do it myself if I can't let others

[slate swan]

whats the issue im mad

fair enough

emojies wont work like they should

jesus christ

@client.command(aliases=["slots", "bet"])
@commands.cooldown(rate=1, per=3.0, type=commands.BucketType.user)
async def slot(ctx):
  """ Roll the slot machine """
  emojis = ":apple::tangerine::pear::lemon::watermelon::grapes::strawberry::cherries:"
  a = random.choice(emojis)
  b = random.choice(emojis)
  c = random.choice(emojis)

  slotmachine = f"[ {a} {b} {c} ]\n{ctx.author.name},"

  if (a == b == c):
    await ctx.send(f"{slotmachine} All matching, you won! :tada:")
  elif (a == b) or (a == c) or (b == c):
    await ctx.send(f"{slotmachine} 2 in a row, you won! :tada:")
  else:
    await ctx.send(f"{slotmachine} No match, you lost :cry:")

[pliant gulch]

Your emojis variable is just a string

Its not a list

[slate swan]

oh xD can u help

[pliant gulch]

Just turn emojis into a list

each emoji being an item of the list

[slate swan]

emojiList = ["emoji1", "emoji2"]

thx

obviously, replace the emoji1 and 2 with your own

[fallow mauve]

with a listen event, how do i make it detect whether the message is exactly as stated

[slate swan]

do you want just an exact message or a list of them?

[fallow mauve]

one exact

[slate swan]

#if u use cog
@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self, message:discord.Message):
            if "string" in message.content:
                return
#if u dont ig use this idk LMAO
@bot.event
    async def on_message(message:discord.Message):
            if "string" in message.content:
                return

oops

[fallow mauve]

[slate swan]

something like that i guess?

[fallow mauve]

[slate swan]

[fallow mauve]

im gonna stick with that cuz i gotta go eat dinner soon and i dont have time to figure other ways out rn

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

you have to use the discord formatting

hows that

[slate swan]

one sec

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

thx

<@USER_ID>

or <@!USER_ID>

  slotmachine = f"[ {a} {b} {c} ]\n{ctx.author.name},"

how would i do it im confused it doesnt work

[stoic galleon]

[slate swan]

jesus christ dude, summarize the error

fr

something with your database is messing up

'vora-db-shard-00-01.jfhaw.mongodb.net', 27017

anyways

[slate swan]

help @slate swan pls

slotmachine = f"[ {a} {b} {c} ]\n <@USER_ID>,"

[pliant gulch]

mmmmm, Implementing plugins is gonna be a pain

I gotta make a metaclass to wrap all methods

[slate swan]

@slate swan , all you need to do now is to get the context author id and replace that with USER_ID

[slate swan]

@slate swan

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'USER_ID' is not defined

xD

bruh

you have to get the users id

then replace the "user_id" with the users id

yeah, what he said
