discord-bots

[slate swan]

try doing this too

see what's not printing

[river kindle]

@client.command(description="Muta un utente")
@commands.has_guild_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):

  guild = ctx.guild
  mutedRole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name="Mutato")

  if not mutedRole:
    mutedRole = await guild.create_role(name="Mutato")


    for channel in guild.channels:
      await channel.set_permissions(mutedRole, speak=False, send_messages=False, read_messages_history=True, read_messages=False)

  
  await member.add_roles(mutedRole, reason=reason)
  await ctx.send(f"Ho mutato {member.mention} | Motivo: {reason}    ")
  await member.send(f"Sei stato mutato in  {guild.name} | Motivo:  {reason}  ")```


this is the code

[slate swan]

nothing looks wrong

[river kindle]

ik

[ripe jackal]

exactly

[slate swan]

except that you named your bot var client instead of bot 🤨

naming conventions, won't actually affect your code but it'll look nicer

[ripe jackal]

it's depending on what a person finds nice

[slate swan]

anyways, after you added some print statements lmk where it's not printing but you know that it should

[ripe jackal]

for me client is better :p

[ripe jackal]

but the code is all right

[river kindle]

mh

[slate swan]

what version of dpy are you on

[river kindle]

[river kindle]

idk

[slate swan]

could also be that the dpy version that you're using is extremely outdated

[ripe jackal]

2.0.0a3

[slate swan]

weird

[river kindle]

ah?

[slate swan]

hmm

[river kindle]

sy baka

how i can fix it

[slate swan]

wait i just noticed, are you using this in another file

[ripe jackal]

no

[slate swan]

alr

[slate swan]

i don't actually know tbh, never had this problem

and the code looks alright too

are you sure that you're passing the right token? and that you're running the bot?

or do you by any chance have anything that's blocking in your code

[river kindle]

yes

[slate swan]

then idk ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[river kindle]

no, problem thanks

[ripe jackal]

if someone have an answer, pls answer it lol

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#why-does-on-message-make-my-commands-stop-working

this is what i found, but it seems not working too :/

[tawdry perch]

Heroku seems to work with aiosqlite, interesting

[slate swan]

your embed needs to have either a description or a title
@ripe jackal

pretty sure

[slate swan]

myString = 123
myInt = "Hello World!"

pretty nice, innit

[hasty iron]

that’s not remotely close to naming a Bot instance client

since Bot subclasses Client we can say it’s okay to name it client

but str doesn’t subclass int so that doesn’t make sense

[slate swan]

👍

[calm vortex]

Do you mean independently?

[tawdry perch]

Not sure, it just happens to work

may be a data loss on restart tho

[calm vortex]

Oh

[tawdry perch]

I have not tested it yet

[calm vortex]

It probably will be

[tawdry perch]

I will anyways be rewriting the whole database to mongodb

or postgres, not 100% sure yet

[calm vortex]

I meant heroku offers a persistent database, so I was wondering if you are saying it's something other than that.

[slate swan]

Is there a way I can store all my commands in one file and then require them in the main file?

[tawdry perch]

cogs?

[calm vortex]

bot.commands is a list of all commands excluding subcommands

[stiff ermine]

can we set bot's status offline even if its actually online ?

like how i am now

[hasty iron]

yes

[stiff ermine]

oh found it

await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.offline)

it seems not working

[slate swan]

iirc heroku offered 1GB free of postgre

[tawdry perch]

good to know

[slate swan]

i could be wrong tho

no it's not space limit, it's rows limit

you can have a max of 10k rows

https://elements.heroku.com/addons/heroku-postgresql

and here's the docs https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-postgresql#connecting-in-python

Hello, i want some help, when i try to connect the mongo db i have a certificate error

Someone can help me please

If I was to store a users xp would i use mongodb?

[slate swan]

questions regarding databases in #databases

you're more likely to get help there

[slate swan]

yeah you can use mongodb for that too

K thx

Hello i have a cmd sp!setup that sends a message and waits for 30s but if the author again replies sp!setup, the message get taken but the same cmd runs again. How to prevent it?

[slate swan]

change it in the bot constructor

Don't change_presence (or make API calls) in on_ready within your Bot or Client.
Discord has a high chance to completely disconnect you during the READY or GUILD_CREATE events (1006 close code) and there is nothing you can do to prevent it.

Instead set the activity and status kwargs in the constructor of these Classes.

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", activity=..., status=...)

As noted in the docs, on_ready is also triggered multiple times, not just once.

Basically: don't 👏 do 👏 shit 👏 in 👏 on_ready.

[tawdry perch]

I create database at on_ready

[boreal ravine]

nice

[boreal ravine]

if we want the guild + amount of users in the status/activity before bot was defined how would we do that?

[hasty iron]

use a startup task

[slate swan]

haven't thought about that

[boreal ravine]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.PublicUserFlags.team_user whats a team user?

[slate swan]

How do I get a list of the names of the servers the bots are join?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.guilds iterate thru it and use .name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.guilds

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

[lament mesa]

client.guilds

[slate swan]

i subclass Bot and assign a db attribute

[tawdry perch]

Never understood that method so I always create connection on every command

[slate swan]

Can anyone tell me, is there a way to pass parameters such that
....
if a user enters a sentence and then type -b and and then another sentence so I want my bot to put sentence 1 in variable 'a' and sentence 2 (after -b) in variable 'b'

[vocal plover]

At last I have my shard ratelimiter not spamming the gateway with identifies

[boreal ravine]

hm

[slate swan]

using str.split('-b')

!d str.split

[unkempt canyon]

str.split

str.split(sep=None, maxsplit=- 1)```
Return a list of the words in the string, using *sep* as the delimiter string. If *maxsplit* is given, at most *maxsplit* splits are done (thus, the list will have at most `maxsplit+1` elements). If *maxsplit* is not specified or `-1`, then there is no limit on the number of splits (all possible splits are made).

If *sep* is given, consecutive delimiters are not grouped together and are deemed to delimit empty strings (for example, `'1,,2'.split(',')` returns `['1', '', '2']`). The *sep* argument may consist of multiple characters (for example, `'1<>2<>3'.split('<>')` returns `['1', '2', '3']`). Splitting an empty string with a specified separator returns `['']`.

For example:

[slate swan]

I make a loop task which refesh the activity variable every 10 minutes and then I put taskname.start() in on_ready field

Is it possible to generate an invitation link from a server id?

[slate swan]

if your bot is in that server, yes

[slate swan]

u need channel id

as well as having permissions to create an invite

[slate swan]

why in on_ready? .start() isn't a coro so you don't have to do it inside a asynchronous function

[slate swan]

imagine if there are different splits like that...

for example, first two sentences get spilit by -b and then to split in the third, we need -c

like xsplit I am blank -b I am a male -c I went to a party

[slate swan]

The bot is in the server and has admin rights, but there is no channel ID....

[slate swan]

loop over the channels, get the first channel, create invite

[errant shuttle]

um........ ok....

[slate swan]

if you expect them to be in that order, then get the last element in the list which is returned from .split and split it again

[slate swan]

o ok

[slate swan]

idk its working for me so I used it

e.x: ```py
string = "I am blank -b I am a male -c I went to a party"
split = string.split('-b')
split_c = split[-1].split('-c')

[boreal ravine]

teach me js oop!

[slate swan]

Could you tell me how? (Preferably with code.

[slate swan]

what do you not know exactly

!d discord.Guild.text_channels

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.text\_channels

property text_channels: List[discord.channel.TextChannel]```
A list of text channels that belongs to this guild.

This is sorted by the position and are in UI order from top to bottom.

[slate swan]

this returns a list of the guild's channels

[boreal ravine]

a for loop maybe

[slate swan]

you don't even have to do a for loop actually

[slate swan]

Sorry for the dumb question, I dont know much about lists, why is there split[-1] in the sentence

you can just index the 1st

[slate swan]

because .split returns a list

indexing with -1 returns the last element

o yeah yeah

[boreal ravine]

Returns a list of the words in the string,
@slate swan

[slate swan]

but if you wanna get that kind of info from a user i recommend using wait_for

[boreal ravine]

hm

[slate swan]

i knew that but I didnt understood what [-1] meant

[slate swan]

appreciated so much!

yw

[errant shuttle]

bruh i am bad at oop

[boreal ravine]

y- your about me tho

[errant shuttle]

i do know js but am bad at oop

[boreal ravine]

hm nice

[cloud dawn]

objects are not that hard right? right??

[boreal ravine]

Lmfao

[errant shuttle]

huh, tell me about it. i still couldn't figure out pythons disctionaries

[boreal ravine]

bruh

[cloud dawn]

Lol

OOP is easy to learn but hard to master.

[boreal ravine]

!e

dict = {"name":"panda", "age":18, "gender":"male"}
print(dict)

[unkempt canyon]

@boreal ravine :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

{'name': 'panda', 'age': 16, 'gender': 'male'}

[boreal ravine]

idk whats hard

[cloud dawn]

I'm 18 😥

[boreal ravine]

hm

[errant shuttle]

i do know how to do dat but am not good at working with dicts

[boreal ravine]

cool

[zenith zinc]

Hii my friend

!e

[visual island]

argparse exists...

[slate swan]

never used it

i can't really recommend something that i never used myself when there's something that i know how to use in that area

[rotund creek]

hi

[slate swan]

well... it really depends on your dedication

if you go with the mindset that you only need a discord bot and that you don't wanna learn the language, then you'll struggle with absolutely everything and never learn anything

which is literally what 80% of the discord bot devs do

[dusk pumice]

How can I get the owner of server?

or the owner id

anyone here?

😐

[graceful gorge]

helppppppp

[slate swan]

ctx.guild.owner

[dusk pumice]

tnx

[dawn wasp]

Hi everyone , Any idea on how to hide or disable a specific slash command and keep it enabled only for owner/admins

[slate swan]

depends on what your using fot slash commands

[graceful gorge]

lol

hooooooooooo

[dawn wasp]

How to achieve such thing

[dawn wasp]

@slate swan u can see some are disabled for regular members

[slate swan]

As he said, it depends on what lib/fork you're using for slash commands

Every lib/fork does it differently

[dawn wasp]

Here is my imports , discord py

import discord
from discord_slash import SlashCommand

[slate swan]

Ah, never used discord_slash, so idk how or if they even support perms for slashes

You could ask in their support server, you'd have more chances of getting help there

im gonna check discord_slash github and source code for abit

wait how do i make my bot delete his own message?

[maiden fable]

msg = await ctx.send() 
await msg.delete() 

[dawn wasp]

can u send an invite

[slate swan]

bruh

[dawn wasp]

appreciated

[maiden fable]

Check the GitHub or the PyPi page

[slate swan]

ty

[slate swan]

Check the pypi page

[maiden fable]

(:

[slate swan]

wtf

why bot cant delete embed

ok nvm

[dusk pumice]

How can I make a role?

[slate swan]

hmm can you send the github or the pypi i cant find it

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Guild.create_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_role

await create_role(*, name=..., permissions=..., color=..., colour=..., hoist=..., mentionable=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") for the guild.

All fields are optional.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to do this.

Changed in version 1.6: Can now pass `int` to `colour` keyword-only parameter.

[dusk pumice]

okay

thanks

[maiden fable]

(:

[dusk pumice]

FAST AWNSER

[maiden fable]

Eh, I was here only, sooo 🤷‍♂️

[dusk pumice]

LOL

[dawn wasp]

neiher do I 😦

[dusk pumice]

Like this?

await create_role(name="Muted", permissions=send_messages=False, color="e90000", reason="Hunter did it. not me!")

[maiden fable]

Nope, remove the *

[dusk pumice]

Than is it all?

[maiden fable]

Eh, u r doing the perms wrong. Also, remove the reason kwarg if u want it to be None

Permissions accept a dict of perms iirc

[dusk pumice]

huh?

I don't understand

[maiden fable]

Lemme give u an example. Gimme 1

[dusk pumice]

okay

thanks

[dawn wasp]

I asked there but they said :

That's a third party library, and we do not help with it

[maiden fable]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions

These are the perms. It should be something like

{
"send messages": True, 
"embed links": True
}

Try doing this

[dusk pumice]

await create_role(name="Muted", permissions={
"send messages": True, 
"embed links": True
}, color="e90000", reason="Hunter did it. not me!")

this???

😐 😦

[bright palm]

permissions=discord.Permissions(send_messages=True, embed_links=True)

Should be like that

[dusk pumice]

OMG

okay

\🏓

[slate swan]

how do i make that it shows specific item icon and not flood the chat

putting icon id into inventory 💀

[slate swan]

i said discord_slash support server

[blissful bridge]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self, message):

        print("executed?")
        await message.channel.send("am i looping?")

when i send i message like this it just repeatedly executes the on_message command so i get a infinite loop of the "executed?" text. However if i remove the "await message.channel.send" it only sends it one. does anyone know how to get it to stop looping?

[boreal ravine]

check the message content

[blissful bridge]

what do you mean?

[boreal ravine]

do you want the event to stop looping?

[blissful bridge]

yeah

[dawn wasp]

can u invite or send me link please

[slate swan]

how do i fix this that it wont flood the embed and it show the specific item icon

@bot.command(aliases = ['inv'])
async def inventory(ctx, member : discord.Member=None):
  print(f"{ctx.author} issued inventory command")
  if not member:
    await open_account(ctx.author)
    user = ctx.author
    users = await get_bank_data()

    try:
        inventory = users[str(user.id)]["inventory"]
    except:
        inventory = []


    em = discord.Embed(title = "Inventory")
    for item in inventory:
      for icon in mainshop:
        name = item["item"]
        amount = item["amount"]
        icon = icon["icon"]

        em.add_field(name = f"{icon} {name}", value = amount, inline=False)    

    await ctx.reply(embed = em)```

[slate swan]

As i said, check discord_slash pypi, I'm not in their sever

Never used discord_slash

[boreal ravine]

then do ```py
if message.content == "something":
#code

[unkempt jacinth]

Been using Heroku hosting service for a while - it's good but it cycles randomly causing the bot to restart and forget locally stored text files and so on. Is there a service which does not cycle and wont restart my bot for any reason?

[blissful bridge]

but i want it to execute no matter the content

[slate swan]

A vps

[dawn wasp]

and there no other way to handle bot slash commands except through this library ?

[slate swan]

You can use forks

I recommend disnake, it has the exact same syntax as dpy 2.0

[boreal ravine]

hm

[slate swan]

And it's by far the best fork out of any other

[boreal ravine]

maybe because your using a for loop

[slate swan]

but i need the specific item icon

[blissful bridge]

oh its looping because it detects it's own event so executes the on_message again to respond to the message it just sent. hence an infinite loop ...

[waxen granite]

        limitmsg = "The limited commands in this server are:\n"
        limitmsglist = []

for some reason it is not sending the full list

[hasty iron]

check if the message author is a bot?

[fleet axle]

hey I need help
whenever I delete a channel it says 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'delete'
any help please

[hasty iron]

we don’t have telepathic powers

[fleet axle]

wdym?

Do I have to send code here?

[hasty iron]

who knows

think about it with your brain

create_role is not defined and that’s not how you add permissions

[dusk pumice]

than

[hasty iron]

read

[dusk pumice]

....

I read that docs already

[hasty iron]

doesn’t seem like it

[slate swan]

finally switched to vscode I see

[hasty iron]

it clearly says permissions takes a Permissions object

and you’re passing in a dict

so i dont know

[dusk pumice]

...

😐

:

[slate swan]

lmao no

replit

oh that's replit? :P

vscode when

[fleet axle]

alr found the solution

[soft widget]

can someone help me with this kind of error?

[slate swan]

show code

[hasty iron]

missing colon

and you need to subclass commands.Cog not commands.cog

[slate swan]

Missing colon, .Cog not .cog

[hasty iron]

and follow naming conventions

[slate swan]

^

How can I store all my commands in one file and then require them in the main file?

[dusk pumice]

Can you guys give me an ex code to made a role with bot?

[slate swan]

how to make a check that if its not admin then he cannot use the command?

not the server

How can I make it if a message is over the discord limit, make the bot say “…” or “message is too long”

[slate swan]

so like

you get the message author

and you see if the user has the

role

nono

any way by which i can make MY CODE add NEW commands to itself?

like
admin = 'my friends id', 'my id', 'my another friends id'

and if its not admin then the command returns false

[manic wing]

you make a check

@bot.check

I think theres a better way to do it but I can’t remember how

[slate swan]

ik that i can use database

but it's too much work

[slate swan]

how do i use it?

[manic wing]

no, you can make a command that autoadds commands but I can’t recall how to do it

[soft widget]

i've followed the naming convention and still got the error

[manic wing]

you need to do class Music(commands.Cog):

[slate swan]

bryh wgat

[covert igloo]

Just send a ss lol

[untold moon]

i sent you colab link already EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

what is ss btw

[slate swan]

idfk how to use @bot.check so i did this

  adminlist = ["460479556156129291", "629606911062573059"]

  if not user:
    if ctx.author.id not in adminlist:
      await ctx.reply("You are not admin.")
      return False
    else:
      #hypeblox : 460479556156129291
      #gnbimgoid : 629606911062573059
      await open_account(ctx.author)

      users = await get_bank_data()
      
      users[str(ctx.author.id)]["wallet"] = amount

      with open("mainbank.json","w") as f:
        json.dump(users,f)
      
      await ctx.reply("Command executed successfully")
      return True```

[untold moon]

wait

lemme guess ss is screenshot?

[covert igloo]

Yes bro

[manic wing]

shut up

[untold moon]

?

what 😭

[manic wing]

where is this

just use my exact code

[untold moon]

what did i do 😭

[manic wing]

@bot.check just runs before every command is activated

[untold moon]

@covert igloo

[slate swan]

and how do i use it

with my command

[covert igloo]

Bro u ain't even finish making the command

Of course it will raise an error

[slate swan]

i need examples with my code

[untold moon]

E

[covert igloo]

Why did u put dots

It literally underlined it

[untold moon]

what do i dooo

[manic wing]

mate; bot.check just runs before every command gets executed. If you put return True, the command runs. If you put return False, it doesnt. Easy as.

I gsve an example

[slate swan]

so i can add my code into check?

[manic wing]

what x.z

[dapper cobalt]

Read the error, and then you'll know where's your issue.

[slate swan]

bruh

what i have to do with that check

add it and whats next

how do i get member count of my server with bot?

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Guild.member_count

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.member\_count

property member_count: int```
Returns the true member count regardless of it being loaded fully or not.

Warning

Due to a Discord limitation, in order for this attribute to remain up-to-date and accurate, it requires [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") to be specified.

[lament mesa]

Guild.members

[manic wing]

len(guild.members)

[dapper cobalt]

Just guild.member_count.

[manic wing]

where guild is an instance of discord.Guild

[lament mesa]

nvm, they asked for the cout

*count

[manic wing]

both work

[slate swan]

pls expain fully

i add that check whats next?

[slate swan]

i am getting this
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'message' referenced before assignment
the code is on_message

i add piece of code into check?

[manic wing]

show the code.

[manic wing]

dude

lets start from the beginning

[slate swan]

@bot.listen('on_message')
async def on_message(msg):
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('op'):
        sending=await msg.channel.send(f'{msg.guild.name} server is OP!')
        await sending.add_reaction('☑️')
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('prefix'):
        await msg.channel.send('The prefix of the bot is ***`.`***')
    elif msg.content.lower() == 'ping':
        before = time.monotonic()
        message = await msg.channel.send("Pong!")
        ping = (time.monotonic() - before) * 1000
        await message.edit(content=f"The ping is- `{int(ping)}ms`")
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('date'):
        today=today = date.today()
        await msg.channel.send("Today's Date is-"+'***'+today.strftime("%B %d, %Y")+'***')
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('member'):
        await message.channel.send(len(guild.members))```

[slate swan]

the last part

[graceful gorge]

hello can i have help

[dapper cobalt]

One is slower than the other.

[final iron]

Don't ask to ask just ask

[dapper cobalt]

What is guild?

You haven't defined it.

[slate swan]

how to do that?

[manic wing]

there are many things you can do if you want to limit commands to only a certain group of people:
a) you can just put if ctx.author.id not in adminlist: return at the start of the command you don't want normal people to run. This works, but may be annoying for you to change later.
b) put hidden=True when you do the @bot.command() and then add a check like this:

@bot.check
async def botcheck(ctx):
  if ctx.author.id not in adminlist and ctx.command.hidden: return False # the command.hidden can act as an 'admin-only' command
  return True #this means its a normal command```

[dapper cobalt]

Ah. So you just started learning Python, or in other words, just started copying code.

[manic wing]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

will it work?
guild = bot.get_guild(ID)

[dapper cobalt]

!resources Please, learn Python before jumping into discord.py.

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

https://pythondiscord.com/resources

[dapper cobalt]

!d discord.Message.guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.guild

The guild that the message belongs to, if applicable.

[slate swan]

lol i already know python

i am not familiar with d.py stuff

[dapper cobalt]

Good.

[final iron]

Just realized what you're doing. You shouldn't make commands like that. Use command decorators

[dapper cobalt]

That's understandable.

[dapper cobalt]

And this.

[slate swan]

ik, i am just making my life easier

my bot has list of custom replies inside the cogs file

[dapper cobalt]

That's making it harder, tbh.

[manic wing]

no lol

[slate swan]

and, i dont want to add stuff to cogs

[manic wing]

when you learn what you're doing wrong you will have to rewrite ALL your code

[final iron]

No it's making it a lot harder

[manic wing]

maybe shortterm its easier, but you're going to have to rewrite everything when you learn why commands and cogs are better

everyone folds at some point

[lament mesa]

You cant have elif without an if

[slate swan]

i want my bot to be able to reply to message
any way - by not using 'on_message'

[manic wing]

Noone likes a 2k long main.py -_-

[slate swan]

ik

it's half of my code

[manic wing]

w h a t

[untold moon]

i did

[final iron]

Also you're triggering these without a prefix

[vocal plover]

Mayhaps it would be good to show them how cogs can be better :P
There's a bunch of stuff about cogs at https://vcokltfre.dev/tips/cogs so you can see why they make life easier

[slate swan]

full code is-

@bot.listen('on_message')
async def on_message(msg):
    if msg.author == bot.user:
        return
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('mochi'):
        lst=[':m:',':regional_indicator_o:',':regional_indicator_n:',':regional_indicator_k:',':heart:']
        await msg.channel.send("Monk's Bae")
        for x in lst:
            await msg.add_reaction(x)
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('monk'):
        lst=[':m:',':regional_indicator_o:',':regional_indicator_c:',':regional_indicator_h:',':information_source:',':heart:']
        await msg.channel.send("Mochi's bae")
        for x in lst:
            await msg.add_reaction(x)
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('op'):
        sending=await msg.channel.send(f'{msg.guild.name} server is OP!')
        await sending.add_reaction(':ballot_box_with_check:')
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('prefix'):
        await msg.channel.send('The prefix of the bot is ***`.`***')
    elif msg.content.lower() == 'ping':
        before = time.monotonic()
        message = await msg.channel.send("Pong!")
        ping = (time.monotonic() - before) * 1000
        await message.edit(content=f"The ping is- `{int(ping)}ms`")
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('date'):
        today=today = date.today()
        await msg.channel.send("Today's Date is-"+'***'+today.strftime("%B %d, %Y")+'***')
    elif msg.content.lower().startswith('member'):
        await message.channel.send(len(guild.members))```

[untold moon]

i dont understand pyhton

[slate swan]

i already use cogs for other REPLIEs

[manic wing]

you use elifs for different outcomes of the same check sorta

[dapper cobalt]

!resources you are able to check some of these resources to get familiar with Python.

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

https://pythondiscord.com/resources

[manic wing]

it should be ```py
if msg.author == bot.user:
return
if msg.content.lower().startswith('mochi'):
lst=[':m:',':regional_indicator_o:',':regional_indicator_n:',':regional_indicator_k:',':heart:']
await msg.channel.send("Monk's Bae")
for x in lst:
await msg.add_reaction(x)
elif msg.content.lower().startswith('monk'):

because msg.author is different to msg.content

[slate swan]

the function will return if the message is by BOT itself right?

[patent lark]

yep

you are returning if the author is equal to the bot

[slate swan]

lmao forgot

i have opened the code after 1 month ;-;

[patent lark]

if you return to the function call after that if check returns True, then it should stop executing if the bot calls on_message

[slate swan]

yes, ik it works
the problem is
i want my bot to replymembercount whenever someone types member

[patent lark]

simple, however i dont recommend making commands using on_message

[final iron]

^

[slate swan]

ik, but there is no way my bot would be knowing if someone types only member
cause it would need prefix first

[final iron]

Why would you want the command to trigger without a prefix though

Let's say some people were complaining about their ping in a game

[slate swan]

it's faster for NEw guys
who does not even know how to use BOT commands

[final iron]

Your bot would just constantly be sending the ping of itself

[vocal plover]

ideally you should just use slash commands instead which discord prompt new users on, as they're designed to be more intuitive

[patent lark]

if message.content.startswith("member").lower():
    await message.channel.send(len(int(message.guild.members)))```.  i’m on my phone so forgive me if i messed up any syntax

[final iron]

I think most people don't like making slash commands

[vocal plover]

i mean, "sucks" tbh, discord's making people use slash commands so slash commands people should use

[slate swan]

idm, cause it is not used often
and the server its in does not have active chat

[patent lark]

yeah; i feel as if i’m too lazy to learn the dislash library though ngl.

[final iron]

I personally just don't like the concept of slash commands

[vocal plover]

disnake's impl. of slash commands is pretty nice

[slate swan]

tries this

   elif msg.content.lower().startswith('member'):
        await msg.channel.send(len(msg.guild.members))```
gives `1`

[patent lark]

intents

[final iron]

!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.

[patent lark]

!intents

!d discord.Intents.members

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.members

Whether guild member related events are enabled.

This corresponds to the following events...

[patent lark]

you need this specifically

[slate swan]

gtg i'll try later ty guys

[patent lark]

you’re welcome

[waxen granite]

Will anyone help me?

[crystal cliff]

How?

[fringe zephyr]

i was considering making some bash aliases to request and quickly respond to any notifications i may have in discord, do you guys know if something like that is against ToS? It's automation of a normal user i guess? but im not going to distribute it in any way.

i should say python scripts not aliases

[waxen granite]

        limitmsg = "The limited commands in this server are:\n"
        limitmsglist = []
        for command in guildLimit.keys():
            cmd = self.bot.get_command(command)
            cogname = cmd.cog.qualified_name
            channelList = guildLimit[command]
            if len(channelList) == 0:
                continue
            else:                
                limit_msg = f"**Command:** `{command}`, **CogName:** `{cogname}`\n"
                for channelid in channelList:
                    channel = self.bot.get_channel(channelid)
                    limit_msg += f"     **Channel:** {channel.mention} | **Channel ID:** `{channel.id}`\n"                    
                if len(limitmsg) + len(limit_msg) < 2000:
                    limitmsg += limit_msg
                else:
                    limitmsglist.append(limitmsg)
                    limitmsg = limit_msg                    
        for limitmsg in limitmsglist:
            await ctx.send(limitmsg)```
for some reason it is not sending the full list

[reef shell]

is it related to discord bots tho

[fringe zephyr]

yes

[waxen granite]

@crystal cliff

[fringe zephyr]

the alternative would be for me to create a bot account and get it invited to servers im in, and then automate that

and in both cases id be using the discord API

[reef shell]

automating user accounts is against ToS

[fringe zephyr]

ah

[desert musk]

does anyone know zeobot?

[fringe zephyr]

is there such thing as a graphical bot client? like using a bot as if it were a normal user but you have your own client

[final iron]

No

[pliant gulch]

This would require modifying the client, which is against the ToS

At least if you were to login the bots account via its token

To the discord client, otherwise I'm sure some programs out there exist for this purpose, but logging in as a bot is a grey area in the ToS I'd say

[neon spear]

When i try to use the command !dm i get this error: AttributeError: 'DMChannel' object has no attribute 'name'
Here is my code:

filenameArray = []

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if(message.channel.name == 'visitcard_database'):
        filename = message.attachments[0].filename
        filename.replace(".png","")
        filenameArray.append(filename)
    await client.process_commands(message)
    
@client.command()
async def dm(ctx):
    await ctx.author.send(filenameArray)

[lusty swallow]

dm channel doesn't have a name because it's in a dm

you should add a check to filter out dm messages

[neon spear]

What check do you have any examples?

[lusty swallow]

if type(message.channel) != discord.DMChannel:
    # do code
```This is just a sample. You can expand this depending on your requirements

[neon spear]

Still don't understand it. When i remove the event function the dm command is working fine. The error refers to the if function from the event command

line 15, in on_message
    if(message.channel.name == 'visitcard_database'):
AttributeError: 'DMChannel' object has no attribute 'name'

[lusty swallow]

it's because of the dm thing. Dm channels doesn't have a name

[neon spear]

@lusty swallow got it working

[lusty swallow]

filenameArray = []

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if type(message.channel) != discord.DMChannel:
        if(message.channel.name == 'visitcard_database'):
            filename = message.attachments[0].filename
            filename.replace(".png","")
            filenameArray.append(filename)
    await client.process_commands(message)
    
@client.command()
async def dm(ctx):
    await ctx.author.send(filenameArray)
```This should work tho

[neon spear]

I understand it, but i already got if(message.channel.name == 'visitcard_database'). I'm using the dm command not in this channel

[dapper cobalt]

Why check the type if you can just do if not message.guild?

[lusty swallow]

sorry, that would be a better solution. I just suggested a solution i know would work since i can't test it right now

[neon spear]

Thanks for the support guys appreciate it 😊

[tender charm]

Hello, I am making discord bot over python, and i am trying to make autorole, but it's not working. This is my code:```Intents = discord.Intents(messages=True, guilds=True, reactions=True, members=True)

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-')

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(ctx):
autorole = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name = 'Member')
await ctx.add_roles(autorole)``` Can somebody help me please? I've tried everything and it still doesn't work

[slate swan]

well that's cool af

you have to paste intents=intents into your bot constructor

[tender charm]

So | bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-', intents=intents)?

[slate swan]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-', intents=intents)```

I'm not sure about this way of defining the intents

[tender charm]

Ok, I will try it.

[slate swan]

you wrote it with a capital letter

[tender charm]

It propably has to be Intents = Intents.. :D

[slate swan]

intents=Intents

[tender charm]

OMG BRO

Its working ?!!?!?!?!?!!?!

[slate swan]

omg

👏

[tender charm]

I am finding why is it not working for 2 hours, and you wrote ONE thing, and its works

Actually god

Thank you so much bro!!!!!

[slate swan]

just come here when you have problems

using time so inefficiently

[tender charm]

Yes, i will. Again, thank you so much!!

[slate swan]

feels really bad

[slate swan]

you're welcome

what's the error

wait why are you deleting every role from a guild

what's that for

IndentationError: expected an indented block

[slate swan]

oh gosh

[boreal ravine]

!indents @graceful gorge

[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

scoping
functions
asynchronous programming
classes/oop in general
decorators
subclassing/inheritance
type-hinting

Hey @graceful gorge!

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

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

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

Hello, i have problem with making discord bot in python, I am trying to split Auto role and Welcome message, my code: ```Intents = discord.Intents(messages=True, guilds=True, reactions=True, members=True)

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-', intents=Intents)

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(ctx, member):
guild = bot.get_guild(----------------------)
channel = guild.get_channel(----------------------)
embed = discord.Embed(title="Nový člen!", description=(f'Vítej {member.mention} na arPlay discordu!'), color=0x66d9ff)
embed.set_thumbnail(url='https://i.imgur.com/laIDPip.png')
autorole = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name = 'Member')
await ctx.add_roles(autorole)
await channel.send(embed=embed)I tried this:bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-', intents=Intents)

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(ctx):
autorole = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name = 'Member')
await ctx.add_roles(autorole)

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
guild = bot.get_guild(----------------------)
channel = guild.get_channel(----------------------)
embed = discord.Embed(title="Nový člen!", description=(f'Vítej {member.mention} na arPlay discordu!'), color=0x66d9ff)
embed.set_thumbnail(url='https://i.imgur.com/laIDPip.png')
await channel.send(embed=embed)``` But when I used this, Autorole isn't work, please help me.

[final iron]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[slate swan]

remove ctx from on_member_join

[valid perch]

event only lets you do it once, you need to use listen

[slate swan]

it only has member

[tawdry perch]

do not use ctx argument for event and you need to use member for that event.

oh nvm it was alrd explained

[slate swan]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '-', intents=Intents)

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(ctx):
    autorole = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name = 'Member')
    await ctx.add_roles(autorole)

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    guild = bot.get_guild(835809421766164482)
    channel = guild.get_channel(850829119713181748)
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Nový člen!", description=(f'Vítej {member.mention} na arPlay discordu!'), color=0x66d9ff)
    embed.set_thumbnail(url='https://i.imgur.com/laIDPip.png')
    await channel.send(embed=embed)

wouldn't work because there are 2 of the same events

[tawdry perch]

and wrong arg on first one*

[slate swan]

you could use @bot.listen() instead of @bot.event

[tender charm]

Thank you so much!!!!! Its workiing. You are GOD, thank you. 🙏

[slate swan]

doesn't really matter

just naming

[slate swan]

wat

are you using the first code?

[tender charm]

Yes

[slate swan]

oh

[tawdry perch]

you are officially a god now

[slate swan]

in that case, it should work with the correct naming

[tender charm]

This, and its working :-) @bot.event async def on_member_join(member): guild = bot.get_guild(----------------------) channel = guild.get_channel(----------------------) embed = discord.Embed(title="Nový člen!", description=(f'Vítej {member.mention} na arPlay discordu!'), color=0x66d9ff) embed.set_thumbnail(url='https://i.imgur.com/laIDPip.png') autorole = discord.utils.get(member.guild.roles, name = 'Member') await member.add_roles(autorole) await channel.send(embed=embed)

[slate swan]

I got this two times today

I'm just the better player

[tawdry perch]

I see

[slate swan]

this should work yeah

[hasty iron]

bot.event doesn’t allow 2 events or more with the same name

[tender charm]

meh dpy coder is legend. Actually I dont know how is he doing it, but every time its working 😄

[hasty iron]

lmao

[slate swan]

you can remove the brackets from
description=(f'Vítej {member.mention} na arPlay discordu!')
just so it looks nice

[maiden fable]

Surely he is a pro lol

[tender charm]

Ok

[slate swan]

this is kinda disturbing when they tell better programmers that someone is a god

[glad sleet]

hey i use heroku but when i run consol it say discord_components are not module

[slate swan]

you have it in the requirements file?

[hasty iron]

add it to requirements.txt

[tawdry perch]

does heroku allow a file to be shared between 2 accounts?

[hasty iron]

this isn’t heroku help

well atleast its not related to discord bots

[glad sleet]

[slate swan]

why don't u use this

[glad sleet]

that's it

[glad sleet]

ok ty

[willow vine]

How do I get ctx.author's timezone

[glad sleet]

datetime.datetime.utcnow()

[slate swan]

get is red marked

[slate swan]

it's discord.utils.get

or you import it

but this isn't gonna fix anything

[willow vine]

I want the bot user's timezone

[slate swan]

how did you do it in the leave command

music = discord.utils.get(client.voice_clients, guild=ctx.guild)

if ctx.guild.me.voice.channel == ctx.author.voice.channel:
    # leaving

elif not music.is_connected():
    # says error

its a elif

so how is music NoneType in the first one

and not here

yeah

that's the fkn question

[glad sleet]
