[valid galleon]

if you press "." on github you get a lite version of vscode in ur browser

[boreal ravine]

and you want to send "False" using a webhook?

[boreal ravine]

wow i never knew this

Woagh

[slate swan]

yes

[valid galleon]

???? i have an on message event which runs at the same time when you put in the command so how can i fix that??

[slate swan]

or true

[boreal ravine]

well personally i'd create a webhook > send the message > delete the webhook

[slate swan]

That would be rate limiting

look like this @boreal ravine

[dim cedar]

i watched a video

where they are doing somtthing else

but the error is same and they fixed it

[boreal ravine]

yes

[boreal ravine]

depends

[slate swan]

@boreal ravine yeah

but other badges dont send

[dim cedar]

will watch that and thn help me

[boreal ravine]

wdym by that

[slate swan]

Ig

on bot =

@boreal ravine like the attributes dont work idk why

[boreal ravine]

wdym by the attr's dont work?

[dim cedar]

kyle

they did this

to fix the same error

[slate swan]

the flags names for example = hypesquad_balance

[boreal ravine]

whats the problem exactly?

[slate swan]

for nitro it's premium_type right ?

[boreal ravine]

rtd on that one

[slate swan]

rtd ?

[boreal ravine]

the docs

[slate swan]

i read the docs

still doesnt wanna send

i think i have an idea

[slate swan]

Or just replace .com with .dev

[slate swan]

There are no flags for Nitro

You gotta check on your own

[slate swan]

premium_type is the one

Doesn't exist :)

im just looking for others

it exists cuz i find nitro users with that

Then show me the documentation where is shows it exists

As it doesn't exist

Those are the only flags

Discord doesn't have a bit shift for Nitro in the badges bitfield on their API

So you have to manually check by yourself

For example, if the profile picture is animated or if the user has a special discriminator or a banner, etc.

https://docs.rs/discord_game_sdk/1.0.1/src/discord_game_sdk/methods/users.rs.html

i dont manually check tho..

Or make a manual api call, which is pepega if you have what you need

[slate swan]

That's the game SDK though

Only thing you can do is a manual API call

/users/{user.id} and read the value in the premium_type field

[proud glade]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.PremiumType 🤔

[slate swan]

That's not in the flags ;))))))

And it's even deprecated

[proud glade]

well? it still shows the information, and even tells you if its classic nitro or not, anddd it's better than doing a raw api call

[slate swan]

Whatever, maybe reading can help 🤡

[proud glade]

another way would be premium_since, returns None if the user doesn't have nitro iirc 👍

[lusty swallow]

wasn't premium for boosters?

[proud glade]

oh really?

[lusty swallow]

yeah i just looked it up and it's for boosters

not sure if it's because of discord's api itself but there seems to be no way to check for nitro

[proud glade]

well that's 😕😕

[lusty swallow]

even https://discord.id/ doesn't return nitro boosters

[gentle gyro]

How do I set 'all' and 'max' as the maximum value in the bank for my currency bot?

[valid galleon]

so i fixed the error of it returning none when setting the afk, but now it sets the afk, removes it, and sets it again. it works how it should when you send a message, but the setting part is messed up. any way to fix this?
My code:

    @commands.command()
    async def afk(self, ctx, *, message = "No Reason Specified"):
        record = await afk_list(ctx.author.id)
        if record:
            embed = discord.Embed(title = 'AFK Running', description = f"{ctx.author.mention}, You Already have an afk running", colour = discord.Colour.red())
            await ctx.send(embed = embed)

        else:
            try:
                await add_afk(ctx.author.id, message)
                await ctx.author.edit(nick = f'[AFK] {ctx.author.display_name}')
                embed = discord.Embed(title = 'AFK', description = f'{ctx.author.mention} I Set Your AFK\n Reason: {message}', colour = discord.Colour.green())
                await ctx.send(embed = embed)
                return
            
            except:
                await add_afk(ctx.author.id, message)
                embed = discord.Embed(title = 'AFK', description = f'{ctx.author.mention} I Set Your AFK\n Reason: {message}', colour = discord.Colour.green())
                await ctx.send(embed = embed)

i keep getting an command error on this command.

wait nm this api is old lmao

[cyan bay]

how do i make my bot say smthn to like a specific channel?

[cyan bay]

like if i type a certain command, it sends a message to another channel

[proud glade]

send

or to be specific, channel.send

[drifting arrow]

But how does he set "channel" to be a specific channel? 🤔

You can't be doing my man bad like this

[proud glade]

well, mans asked how to send it not how to set it 🤷‍♂️

still, i'd recommended reading the docs, many ways to get a channel

most basic one would be channel = bot.get_channel(id_goes_here)

[cyan bay]

ye, that was my question

[cyan bay]

oh ok

[cyan bay]

ahhk

ty

[slate swan]

or use a parameter and type hint it to be a channel

Then you can do !say #channel a message here

[cyan bay]

ok

[proud glade]

yeah, many ways to do it

depends on what exactly you're looking for

[slate swan]

how do i invoke a command from within a on_message event

[proud glade]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke

[gloomy quest]

Does anyone know how to use a discord widget on GitHub?

Ik this is not related to discord.py but

its the closest

[boreal ravine]

you mean a webhook?

[gloomy quest]

I mean something like

When you click the whatever its called you join the server

[boreal ravine]

i dont understand

[gloomy quest]

and when u click it you join a server

[boreal ravine]

oh

[boreal ravine]

just view the source code and copy it lol

[gloomy quest]

yeh but i want my own server instead

[boreal ravine]

Then change the source code?

[gloomy quest]

k

[boreal ravine]

k

it's that easy

[gloomy quest]

yessss

thxx

[boreal ravine]

ok

[iron zealot]

hello there

discord bots very kool

[quasi pawn]

which product do I choose for a bot's host

[dim cedar]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def mute(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
  guild = ctx.guild
  mutedrole = discord.utils.get(guild.roles, name = "Muted")
  if not mutedrole:
    mutedrole = await guild.create_role(name = "Muted")
  for channel in guild.channels:
    await channel.set_permissions(mutedrole, speak=False,send_messages=False,read_message_history=True,read_messeges=False)
    
  await member.add_roles(mutedrole, reason=reason) 
  await ctx.send(f"Muted {member.mention} for reason {reason}")  
  await member.send(f"You were Muted in the server {guild.name} for {reason}") ```

why this is not working

[heavy folio]

    class UserInfo_Button(discord.ui.View):
      @discord.ui.button(label="View Member's Roles", style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple)
      async def receive(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        member = discord.Interaction.user

        for x in list(discord.Interaction.guild.roles)[::-1]:
          memberRoles = f"\n{x.mention}"

        embed = discord.Embed()
        embed.add_field(name="Roles", value=memberRoles)

        await discord.Interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, ephemeral=True)

    @commands.command()
    async def hi(self, ctx, member: discord.Member): 
      member = ctx.author or member
      embed = discord.Embed(
         description=member
      )
      await ctx.reply(embed=embed, view=self.UserInfo_Button()
```i have this, but below i have a command which has an arg `member`, so how do i make the interaction get the `member`'s roles? im certain its not `discord.Interaction.user` since thats for the user who clicked the button

[boreal ravine]

stop. copying. code. when.

[boreal ravine]

member.roles

!d discord.Member.roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.roles

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

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

[heavy folio]

i know that but then its in an interaction

[boreal ravine]

discord.Interaction.user.roles then? idk read the lib's docs about this

[heavy folio]

but thats for the user who clicked on the button, not the member arg

[boreal ravine]

Who's "member" in this case then

the author?

[heavy folio]

member can either be the author or a @member (its an arg in a command)

[boreal ravine]

i dont see a member arg anywhere

[heavy folio]

i didnt send the command

sec

[heavy folio]

edited

[boreal ravine]

hm

[slate swan]

It literally feels like I'm reading a convo between deleted users

Y'all's pfp 😭

[lean thicket]

Hello there 👋

Is this any way to make a command both a regular one and slash command under the same function? I'm using discord_py_slash_command for the slashs

@commands.command(name="info")
@cog_ext.cog_slash(name="info", description="some description")
async def cool_func():
    await ctx.send("some info")

Of course, this won't work, but is there any workaround?

[boreal ravine]

\🗿

[boreal ravine]

I don't think so

just make one slash & one normal command 🧠

[slate swan]

😂

[lean thicket]

Alright then, I'll do that if there is no other solution to it

It's extra code though, but I guess it'll have to do

[proud glade]

cloud i'm positive?

[heavy folio]

      # checks if member has banner or not
      if bool(member.banner) is True:
        fetchedMember = await self.bot.fetch_user(member.id)
        # new_embed.set_thumbnail(url=fetchedMember.banner.url)
      else:
        pass
```did i do something wrong here? i ran the command and mentioned someone with a banner but then its not showing in the embed thumbnail, theres nothing in the thumbnail

[proud glade]

member.roles

[heavy folio]

i already said, in the interaction (button), not the command

[proud glade]

there's some problems w avatar_url in 2.0, could be the same with banner_url

[heavy folio]

uh no?

its not a problem, they just changed it to .url bruh

[proud glade]

well good for you 👍

[heavy folio]

??

[proud glade]

not extremely sure i understand? a member object is a member object regardless

[dapper cobalt]

break can be used only in loops, I think what you want is return.

[slate swan]

Hi, so I've coded a discord bot using nodejs once a while back, I remember I did a command handler and a event handler where i have a index.js file, and two different folders called "commands" and "events", so inside the commands folder, each command the bot has is in their own file within that folder, and every event that's called is in their own file in the events folder, example:

index.js
commands ↓
    ping.js
    info.js
    help.js
    kick.js
    etc...
events ↓
    message.js
    ready.js

How can I do this with python?

[dapper cobalt]

Code?

[dapper cobalt]

https://github.com/ScopesCodez/discordpy-cogs

Just return.

[proud glade]

you don't really need separate files, but yeah, cogs are what you wanna look at

[slate swan]

It's muuuch easier to have a command handler and event handlers of what I learned

[dapper cobalt]

Yes.

[slate swan]

So cogs it is, ty guys

[proud glade]

return stops the command 👍

[proud glade]

np, good luck

[heavy folio]

^

[dapper cobalt]

What is message though?

[slate swan]

Sorry for interrupting, I looked up how cogs works and it doesn't seem like I want to use this since from what I understood you can't separately do a command handler and a event handler

[dapper cobalt]

You can tho? What did you look at?

Try printing message.content.

[slate swan]

A few posts on stackoverflow, and googled how cogs works with python, I haven't found a site where they explain how to make separate handlers using cogs

[dapper cobalt]

https://github.com/ScopesCodez/discordpy-cogs

I've explained it in this repository.

[slate swan]

Oh okay ty

[ionic wadi]

Im trying to make a report command, and I want users to be able to send proof pictures and let that pictures be send to the logs channel. But Is that possible at all?

Or Is It just message.content?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Message.attachments

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.attachments

A list of attachments given to a message.

[slate swan]

Gives a list of attachments (pictures in your case)

[ionic wadi]

@commands.command(brief="Iemand reporten", description="Iemand reporten voor bijv leaken of raiden")
    async def report(self, ctx, user=None, proof=None, reason=None):
        botmessage = await ctx.send("Wat is de discord naam en tag?")
        message = await bot.wait_for("message")
        user = message.content
        await message.delete()
        await botmessage.edit(context="Kan je hieronder **1** foto sturen die het meest bewijst?")
        message = await bot.wait_for("message")
        proof=message.content
        await message.delete()
        await botmessage.edit(context="Wat is de reden dat hij gereport wordt?")
        message = await bot.wait_for("message")
        reason = message.content
        await message.delete()
        await botmessage.delete()
        await ctx.send(f"Je report over {user} is succesvol naar het management verstuurt, {ctx.author.mention}")```

The message doesnt edit

[dire saddle]

hey

[slate swan]

content, not context when editing

And you shouldn't just accept screenshots as proof, they can be faked

[slate swan]

How can I get a guilds information?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Guild has all the attributes you need

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild

class discord.Guild```
Represents a Discord guild.

This is referred to as a “server” in the official Discord UI.

x == y Checks if two guilds are equal.

x != y Checks if two guilds are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the guild’s hash.

str(x) Returns the guild’s name.

[slate swan]

ya the thing is I can't use discord.Guild since i do

from discord.etx import commands```

do i do commands.guild?

[boreal ravine]

then do

import discord
``` since `.Guild` is from the `discord` module and not the `ext.commands` module

[slate swan]

okay

ty

[boreal ravine]

👍

[ocean leaf]

how can i install discord.py 2.0 in replit? I need it because i think threads only works in 2.0 or later

[slate swan]

<discord.embeds.Embed object at 0x000001F95F709700> this is the output i get from:

    @commands.command()
    async def guildinfo(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Guild Information")
        embed.add_field(name="Guild Owner", value=f"{discord.Guild.owner}")
        await ctx.send(embed)

How come?

[boreal ravine]

it's ctx.guild.owner in commands

[slate swan]

oh ok

[ocean leaf]

guild

[boreal ravine]

pip install -U git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

[slate swan]

I still get <discord.embeds.Embed object at 0x000001E6C5249700>

[ocean leaf]

thanks

[boreal ravine]

show me wut u did

[ocean leaf]

await ctx.send(embed = embed)

[boreal ravine]

oh

[slate swan]

    @commands.command()
    async def guildinfo(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Guild Information")
        embed.add_field(name="Guild Owner", value=f"{ctx.guild.owner}")
        await ctx.send(embed)

[boreal ravine]

hm

[boreal ravine]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

oh, what does this do tho?

[ocean leaf]

yes try

[slate swan]

what does the code do? like why do i do this? (so i can learn)

[boreal ravine]

it returns the guild owner

since there was ctx as a param it'll return the guild owner from where the command was invoked

[slate swan]

no no, the (embed = embed) why do i do that

[ocean leaf]

when u send embeds, u cant send it directly. u have type embed = embed name to send it

embed name means the name of ur embed variable

[slate swan]

okay so the second embed is my variable i get that, but what is the first embed

Guys what type of mini games should I do using discord.py?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.TextChannel.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=None, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, mention_author=None, view=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[ocean leaf]

no the first embed is just akeyword not a variable

*a key word

[boreal ravine]

i think its to clarify what embed your using @slate swan not sure though

[boreal ravine]

or this

since embed could be anything

[slate swan]

yeah i read that, thanks

but the ctx.guild.owner returns None

[ocean leaf]

ctx.guild.owner.name maybe

or the server is glitched

[placid skiff]

!d discord.Guild.owner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.owner

property owner: Optional[discord.member.Member]```
The member that owns the guild.

[boreal ravine]

it's a bug

[placid skiff]

It is a member object

Should not return None

[boreal ravine]

wait do you have intents

!intents @slate swan

[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]

intents?

[boreal ravine]

^ since owner is a member object and your bot needs certain things to access those

[boreal ravine]

just go to the dev portal > applications > bot > intents

[slate swan]

yes its on

[placid skiff]

Yes but if you send a message with ctx.guild.owner it should return a member object

[placid skiff]

Enable intents and active them when you declare your bot object

[slate swan]

I enabled them already

[boreal ravine]

try doing this but intents=discord.Intents.all()

[slate swan]

Did that

still returns none

[ocean leaf]

It says create_thread is not defined. i am in 2.0

[boreal ravine]

use ctx.channel

[placid skiff]

Did you pass intents on your bot?

[slate swan]

yes

[ocean leaf]

means how?

ctx.channel.cretae_thread?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[placid skiff]

Then is a bug probably

[ocean leaf]

ok

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.TextChannel.create_thread

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.create\_thread

await create_thread(*, name, message=None, auto_archive_duration=..., type=None, reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a thread in this text channel.

To create a public thread, you must have [`create_public_threads`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.create_public_threads "discord.Permissions.create_public_threads"). For a private thread, [`create_private_threads`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.create_private_threads "discord.Permissions.create_private_threads") is needed instead.

New in version 2.0.

[placid skiff]

Try on another guild

[slate swan]

main.py```py
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import Intents

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="-")

commands/guild.py```py
@commands.command()
    async def guildinfo(self, ctx):
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Guild Information")
        embed.add_field(name="Guild Owner", value=f"{ctx.guild.owner}")
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[boreal ravine]

theres this bug where if your the owner and give yourself 2 roles with admin and one without admin you'll lose the server "crown" icon and I think that affects discord.py but im not sure

[placid skiff]

You did not pass the intents to the bot

[fading harness]

@slate swan i want my bot to say sth in voice channel

[slate swan]

i followed the docs you guys sent in this channel

[placid skiff]

bot = commands.bot(prefix=. . ., intents = intents)

[slate swan]

oh right sorry

Yup works now

Thanks!

[boreal ravine]

gets ignored

😢

[ocean leaf]

why is this error happening?

[boreal ravine]

you need to specify a type

[placid skiff]

I did not try it but i think that the bot search for who created the guild

[boreal ravine]

add a type kwarg when creating a thread

Like , type=discord.Thread.public

[supple thorn]

guild = self.bot.get_guild(data["guild"])
member = guild.get_member(data["userid"])

Ok so

When i print member its None

Which shouldnt be None cause its my id and im in the server

Its not finding me

[placid skiff]

!d discord.Guild.get_member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_member

get_member(user_id, /)```
Returns a member with the given ID.

[supple thorn]

It finds the guild perfectly fine

Just not me

[placid skiff]

Why you pass data[]?

Is a list?

[supple thorn]

Yes

Its from my database

Im using mongodb

When i print the data["userid"] my id shows up perfectly

Its a int

So i dont know whats wrong

[placid skiff]

It is an int object or str object?

[supple thorn]

I said its a int

[placid skiff]

Sorry didn't read lol

Just for check, try to convert your id into a Member object

[supple thorn]

What

[placid skiff]

Did you know Converters?

[supple thorn]

How do i get a member object when it returns none

[supple thorn]

no

[placid skiff]

You are using guild.get_member method, Converters are a class which convert data into an object

[placid skiff]

Try doing this, import discord.Member and do member: Member = data["userid"]
Then print it

[slate swan]

typehinting only works in your command parameter, doing that doesn't automatically convert that int to discord.Member

just enable members intents

[boreal ravine]

parameters*

lol

[supple thorn]

I do have member intents on

[placid skiff]

They work for me lol

[slate swan]

print dict(bot.intents)

and show it to me

[dense swallow]

discord.TextChannel always returns a channel and throws an error if it's not found?

Hi, so I would need if person 1 is typing on server a in global channel that the bot starts typing on all the other servers too in the specific channels that is in a list. can someone help me?

[dense swallow]

Okay thanks

[slate swan]

no they dont, it calls MemberConverter in context.prepare, which doesn't exist if you typehint it like that

[placid skiff]

Buddy i have a command where i have to convert a role id from by database and i did it in this way .-.

[supple thorn]

Fuck

@slate swan thanks

[slate swan]

i can tell you that's not even the converter doing it

[placid skiff]

Well bruh, till it works, don't touch it 😂 😂

[slate swan]

just saying since you're giving wrong info there

[hot cobalt]

Typehints do absolutely nothing unless something additional is present to make them work. In the case of discord.py, the decorators include this functionality, which is why the type hints on your parameters are enforced

But they're not going to be enforced if you just have some variable definition somewhere in your code

[slate swan]

@commands.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def reload(self, ctx, *, name: str):
        if ctx.message.content[1] == "cmd":
            try:
                self.client.reload_extension(f"commands.{name}")
            except Exception as e:
                return await ctx.send(e)
            await ctx.send(f"**commands.{name}** reloaded!")
        elif ctx.message.content[1] == "event":
            try:
                self.client.reload_extension(f"..events.{name}")
            except Exception as e:
                return await ctx.send(e)
            await ctx.send(f"**events.{name}** reloaded!")
        else:
            try:
                self.client.reload_extension(f"..{name}")
            except Exception as e:
                return await ctx.send(e)
            await ctx.send(f"**{name}** reloaded")

How come this isn't working man i've been stuck on this for a while now, I dont understand the issue, it returns the exception everytime

[hot cobalt]

It's been a while since I've used discord.py, but iirc ctx.message.content is just the message content in a string form. Which means that ctx.message.content[1] is just grabbing the character at index 1, which can never be equal to a string of length greater than 1

You probably meant to check name

if name == "cmd": etc

[slate swan]

no no

so the thing is

[boreal ravine]

ctx: commands.Context 🧠

[slate swan]

i have these files:

commands ↓
    guildinfo.py
    reload.py
events ↓
    on_ready.py
main.py

so the thing is I want reload to be able to reload in events, commands and the files outside these folders such as main.py

so, when i run the command -reload cmd guildinfo it will reload the guildinfo.py in commands folder
if i do -reload event on_ready it will reload the on_ready.py in the events folder, but if i do -reload main its supposed to reload the main.py

[slate swan]

^

[hot cobalt]

My point still stands, ctx.message.content[1] is just getting the character at index 1 of the message content, which will never be equal to cmd or event etc

[past ermine]

Can someone help?

[slate swan]

i tried doing list(ctx.message.content)[1] too

still wont work

[hot cobalt]

That would make a list of characters, not a list of words

[maiden fable]

!d discord.on_typing

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_typing

discord.on_typing(channel, user, when)```
Called when someone begins typing a message.

The `channel` parameter can be a [`abc.Messageable`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable "discord.abc.Messageable") instance. Which could either be [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel"), [`GroupChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.GroupChannel "discord.GroupChannel"), or [`DMChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.DMChannel "discord.DMChannel").

If the `channel` is a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") then the `user` parameter is a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member"), otherwise it is a [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

This requires [`Intents.typing`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.typing "discord.Intents.typing") to be enabled.

[hot cobalt]

You could split it, but just make a second argument instead

Pass in the event as a param as well as the name

[slate swan]

i tried that too but then it threw me an error saying missing argument in reload() when i dont wanna reload in any folder

[hot cobalt]

Make it an optional arg (you'll need it to be the last argument if this is the case however)

[past ermine]

Yeah, but I really have no Idea on how to do that

[slate swan]

how do you define a optional argument?

[hot cobalt]

async def reload(self, ctx, *, name: str, event=None):

If it's not given it'll be set to None

[maiden fable]

user returns the person who is typing, so u can check if user is an instance of discord.Member . If it is, then u can get the channel he in typing in, with the channel param

[slate swan]

Okay thanks

[past ermine]

My start

@bot.event
async def on_typing(channel, user):
  if channel in servers:

how do I trigger the typing?

[maiden fable]

It accepts 3 args

Also channel returns the TextChannel, not the server

U gotta get the server with channel.guild

[past ermine]

And then?

@bot.event
async def on_typing(channel, user):
  if channel.guild in servers:

Like that? @maiden fable

[slate swan]

still wont work man im going crazy xD

[maiden fable]

It accepts 3 args

See the embed Python bot sent

[slate swan]

    @commands.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def reload(self, ctx, *, name: str, filename=None):
        if filename == "cmd":
            try:
                self.client.reload_extension(f"commands.{name}")
            except Exception as e:
                return await ctx.send(e)
            await ctx.send(f"**commands.{name}** reloaded!")
        elif filename == "event":
            try:
                self.client.reload_extension(f"..events.{name}")
            except Exception as e:
                return await ctx.send(e)
            await ctx.send(f"**events.{name}** reloaded!")
        else:
            try:
                self.client.reload_extension(f"..{name}")
            except Exception as e:
                return await ctx.send(e)
            await ctx.send(f"**{name}** reloaded")

E.S — Today at 1:35 PM
-reload guildinfo cmd
Misa BOT — Today at 1:35 PM
Extension '..guildinfo cmd' could not be loaded.

[past ermine]

yeah, added it. And now?

[maiden fable]

Uhhh, lemme see what u want to do

Ah, just do channel.trigger_typing

!d discord.TextChannel.trigger_typing

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.trigger\_typing

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

Triggers a *typing* indicator to the destination.

*Typing* indicator will go away after 10 seconds, or after a message is sent.

[hot cobalt]

@slate swan Odd, it seems it just accepted guildinfo cmd as a single arg. It's entirely possible I'm just misremembering and discord.py is just going throw everything after *, into the one param. Like I said it's been a long time since I last used it.
I gotta go, but someone should be able to help you out with getting those arguments separated properly

[past ermine]

Tbh I don't get it.

I'll do it somewhen else.

But thanks anyway.

[valid perch]

*, arg puts everything not already consumed into arg

So you won't get away with adding arguments after it

[long fog]

hi

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
@commands.is_owner()
async def shutdown(ctx):
await ctx.author.send('Hazard shutting down...')
await ctx.bot.logout()

how to i add extra owner?

[maiden fable]

owner_ids kwarg in the bot constructor accepts a list of owner IDs. Also, the pass_context thing is old now

[slate swan]

I have written code to automatically create a channel when a user joins the server,
but when the user leaves the server, can I automatically delete the created channel?

[maiden fable]

U gotta store the channel in something

Like a DB or a dict (cache)

[slate swan]

I see

[crystal wind]

I was wondering if I can do a coroutine for another try/except inside an async def. For instance, when it comes to buttons, you have to use try/except to time out an expiration to components at a certain moment. But for my case, once you press a button, it prompts an ephemeral embed with another component attached to it, I was wondering if I could use two try/except in a asynchronous way (so their own respective components expire independently) instead of a try/except inside a try/except which one depends another.

[long fog]

what

btw how do you make a bot create a thread

[cursive spindle]

hello

i have send a embed message. i can fetch the message and change only something like title or description?

will change my whole embed?

[gloomy quest]

Is it just for me or is the random api down?

[gloomy quest]

nope

it will only change the certain thingy(Eg. desc/value)

[boreal ravine]

you can change anything on there

[slate swan]

anyone know how i can make my boy embed a message on join

[gloomy quest]

on_join event

[urban shell]

hey guys, I am working on a music bot, I'm currently using yt-dl to source the audio, is there a way to use Spotify or some other source with a better audio quality for the same?

[slate swan]

its okay i taught myself how xd

I would like to set permissions for a channel after it is automatically created.
How can I get the Id of the newly created channel on the fly to write the code to set the permissions?

[dapper trail]

hey can anyone tell me how can i send a msg from my bot with second line

like

my prefix is g
type g help for more info

[hollow basin]

you could set a variable and await create channel with the variable

[dapper trail]

async def on_message(message):
    mention = f'<@!{bot.user.id}>'
    if mention in message.content:
        await message.channel.send("Ya can type g help for more info")```

i was making my bot do this command on ping but how do i add second line?

[slate swan]

Could you please tell me the detailed method?

[hollow basin]

what do you mean "2nd" line ?

[dapper trail]

nvm i was using / instead of \

[hollow basin]

#you could do it by
channel = await #codeblock

I'm not a good explainer , I'm still learning

[slate swan]

if ctx.channel == True:
     return

Is this correct? I want to make sure you are talking to the bot privately not in a s ever or channel

[hollow basin]

talking to a bot in dm?

[slate swan]

Yes

But not in a channel or server

Is my code the correct way or nah

[hollow basin]

what were you trying to do at first?

Ohh i get it now

[slate swan]

Yes

one qustion how do u guys make a uhm like when somone pings the owner for example lemon his the owner and i want my bot to say Sorry please ping the Admins

[slate swan]

So can u help me?

[zinc trench]

from discord.ext import commands

Bot.run("tokenpastedhere")```

[zinc trench]

why does it throw error

[slate swan]

Only the Bot.event works?

And u forgot to put a )?

[slate swan]

bc u didnt close the ) at the divide command

😄

[junior falcon]

Someone can help me with requests?

[slate swan]

[junior falcon]

requests the library i mean

[slate swan]

mh ask one of the @zinc trench or @slate swan

[zinc trench]

ohh yes why am i dumb

[zinc trench]

i jusr a biginner started learning i dont know tbh

[slate swan]

mh

[boreal ravine]

Error?

[zinc trench]

got it

[boreal ravine]

Is it related to a discord command?

[boreal ravine]

👍

[boreal ravine]

Check the message content

!d discord.Message.content

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.content

The actual contents of the message.

[junior falcon]

Yes

[boreal ravine]

I could help. Show me the code

[junior falcon]

i dont have one bc idk how to make it works

Like i know discord.py very well

but i dont know how to use requests for make HTTP GET

[boreal ravine]

hm

[zinc trench]

can someone help

how to store token in env file in vscode

[junior falcon]

Im trying to get data from an api

[boreal ravine]

you can get the "data" from the api if the api is a json link. by doing

a = requests.get(url)
``` then doing
```py
e = await a.json()
``` iirc

[junior falcon]

is a site where you need to vote how i create a variable like {votesTotal}

for get the n of votes?

[boreal ravine]

i meannnn sure I guess

[zinc trench]

.

[boreal ravine]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63530888/how-would-i-go-about-creating-an-env-file-for-my-discord-bot-token

[junior falcon]

?

so how i make

[boreal ravine]

well use the way I said earlier and get the json data from the url if it even is json

[zinc trench]

but can i do that in vscode?

i dont want to use repl.it

[boreal ravine]

vscode and replit is an IDE

so yes, you can.

[zinc trench]

can u help me i wrote this code

[boreal ravine]

sure I guess

[zinc trench]

from discord.ext import commands

[boreal ravine]

whats wrong?

[zinc trench]

its showing error

.

[boreal ravine]

Try doing ctrl shift p and show me what pops up

[zinc trench]

lol this pops up

[boreal ravine]

search "select linter"

[supple thorn]

re = data['mutetime'] - 1
if data["mutetime"] != 0:
          await collection.update_many({"same": "pog"},{'$set':{'mutetime': re}}

[slate swan]

How do I only respond to a certain word IF they tell that word to the private chat with my bot?

[supple thorn]

Ok so this is in a tasks that loops for 1 second it subtracts 1 from a int

[boreal ravine]

click pylint

[supple thorn]

It works with the same person only

[boreal ravine]

check if the channel was a dm channel > check the message content

[supple thorn]

Only problem is when a different person gets in the database and has a different mute time

[zinc trench]

shall i install it

[boreal ravine]

yes

[supple thorn]

It pretty much puts the mute time of the first person

[fading harness]

should i install github copilot

[zinc trench]

done wow

[slate swan]

Oh ok but how

[supple thorn]

To the other dude and i dont really know how to individually subtract 1 from each of their mute time simultanously

[boreal ravine]

Did it work?

yes so now i how do i add token
?by creating an env file

[slate swan]

Wow thx

[boreal ravine]

uhmm check the stack overflow earlier

[zinc trench]

.

[boreal ravine]

something like

if isinstance(message.channel, discord.DMChannel):
  if ... in ...:
     #code

[zinc trench]

btw @boreal ravine why are you so intelligent 😂

[slate swan]

Thx

[boreal ravine]

create a file called .env create a variable named token or whatever you want it to be (the token doesn't need to be in a string) and in the main file do token = os.getenv("token") or bot.run(os.getenv("token"))

[supple thorn]

Im using mongodb for the database

[zinc trench]

i made .env file and added token = pastedtokenhere
then when i run code in main file
it says
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'strip'

[junior falcon]

i did it but now how i get the specific data i want?

printing the json show me all the datas

[boreal ravine]

click the link > index the data you want

[patent holly]

why cant i use the += increment

[junior falcon]

example?

[boreal ravine]

Show full error

[boreal ravine]

like data["money"]

[bright palm]

You can't do = and += lmao

[boreal ravine]

full traceback?

[boreal ravine]

oh

I didn't see that

[patent holly]

idk how i cant use it

Ive downloaded python 3

and I have no logs

[boreal ravine]

like @bright palm said use += only

[zinc trench]

from discord.ext import commands
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()
token = os.getenv("token")

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

@Bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Bot is Ready")

@Bot.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    await ctx.reply("Hello")

@Bot.command()
async def add(ctx, numb1:int, numb2:int):
    await ctx.reply(numb1+numb2)

@Bot.command()
async def multiply(ctx, numb1:int, numb2:int):
    await ctx.reply(numb1*numb2)

@Bot.command()
async def divide(ctx, numb1:int, numb2:int):
    await ctx.reply(numb1/numb2)

Bot.run(token)```
see my code

[boreal ravine]

i meant the full error not the code

[patent holly]

[bright palm]

It's cause the environment variable doesn't exist

[boreal ravine]

do u have a variable for the json link thingy

[bright palm]

So it is getting the default which is None

[boreal ravine]

did you create a file called .env?

[junior falcon]

yes

[boreal ravine]

whats it called

[junior falcon]

voti

[zinc trench]

yes see this .env file has token

[boreal ravine]

so if the json was like this

{"statusCode":404,"message":"Questo server non esiste","error":"Not Found"}
``` you'd do 
```py
print(voti["statusCode"])
print(voti["message"])
print(voti["error"])
``` & more

[junior falcon]

Omg thank u

it worked

[zinc trench]

i created .env file still error

[bright palm]

You are using vscode right?

Is your .env in the base folder

it was runnnig smoothly then suddleny this happened

[zinc trench]

it happened with me once i closed whole thing and started again and it worked

lol

[boreal ravine]

are u using env too.

[ionic ledge]

yeah ,

[boreal ravine]

oh

[boreal ravine]

u sure its a parentheses and not a bracket

the getenv() part

[ionic ledge]

yeah i can show u

[boreal ravine]

you dont have to show me anything

I see your code in the error

[boreal ravine]

does a "Token" key exist?

[ionic ledge]

yeah

[boreal ravine]

@ionic ledge try ["Token"] then

[ionic ledge]

okay

[zinc trench]

;-;

[ionic ledge]

i mean , i need to wait for a reason i dont know

[lament mesa]

Replit moment

[valid niche]

That’s replit right?

Replit has been used to host a lot of spam bots and discord is quickly banning all their IPs

So you cannot use replit, not that you should in the first place

[boreal ravine]

Been using replit for about 4 months now and I have never seen that error ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[valid niche]

Just wait until your node is used by spambots

Then it will quickly be banned

[slate swan]

^

[boreal ravine]

A node?

[slate swan]

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

[valid niche]

The physical machine

It’s called a node when you’re talking about servers

[boreal ravine]

• The machines are super underpowered.
• • This means your bot will lag a lot as it gets bigger.
• You need to run a webserver alongside your bot to prevent it from being shut off.
• • This isn't a trivial task, and eats more of the machines power.
• Repl.it uses an ephemeral file system.
• • This means any file you saved via your bot will be overwritten when you next launch.

eh i can easily bypass the "file part" and my bot isnt that big anyways

[valid niche]

Be warned that there is a fair chance you will literally have your account banned from discord

[boreal ravine]

for what reason

[valid niche]

Your bot is on a machine that was used to send spam attacks

[boreal ravine]

eh. I'll keep that in mind.

[ionic ledge]

so where can i host my bot for free

[valid niche]

You don’t

[restive verge]

is there any function to handle errors caused by Cog.listeners()

[valid niche]

Well some would say their own pc or self hosting is free, if you don’t count electricity bills

[valid niche]

!d discord.on_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_error

discord.on_error(event, *args, **kwargs)```
Usually when an event raises an uncaught exception, a traceback is printed to stderr and the exception is ignored. If you want to change this behaviour and handle the exception for whatever reason yourself, this event can be overridden. Which, when done, will suppress the default action of printing the traceback.

The information of the exception raised and the exception itself can be retrieved with a standard call to [`sys.exc_info()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info "(in Python v3.9)").

If you want exception to propagate out of the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") class you can define an `on_error` handler consisting of a single empty [raise statement](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#raise "(in Python v3.9)"). Exceptions raised by `on_error` will not be handled in any way by [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

[restive verge]

i did try the on_error function it did not invoke

[valid niche]

how did you implement it?

        print(kwargs)

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(Test(bot))

is it wrong

i am new with discord bot programing and no idea how args and kwargs work

[boreal ravine]

learn args, kwargs first

[valid niche]

args and kwargs are literally that, args and kwargs

arguments and keyword arguments

*args and **kwargs means it will take any argument and any keyword argument, no matter how many

[restive verge]

so is the syntax correct for the above function

[boreal ravine]

I mean

it isnt a valid event

[valid niche]

hm i just tried it, for some reason on_error indeed isn't dispatching, and i have a feeling i might know why

since on_error is a built in event

[slate swan]

its , on_command_error

[valid niche]

on_COMMAND_error

so that only works with COMMANDS

[restive verge]

yes on_command_error works only for commands

[valid niche]

hmm from my testing, the only thing i can suggest now is wrapping possible erroring code in try except statements

[slate swan]

oh ic

[valid niche]

since on_error seems to work differently

[lusty swallow]

!d discord.on_error but it's discord.on_command_error for commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_error

discord.on_error(event, *args, **kwargs)```
Usually when an event raises an uncaught exception, a traceback is printed to stderr and the exception is ignored. If you want to change this behaviour and handle the exception for whatever reason yourself, this event can be overridden. Which, when done, will suppress the default action of printing the traceback.

The information of the exception raised and the exception itself can be retrieved with a standard call to [`sys.exc_info()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info "(in Python v3.9)").

If you want exception to propagate out of the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") class you can define an `on_error` handler consisting of a single empty [raise statement](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#raise "(in Python v3.9)"). Exceptions raised by `on_error` will not be handled in any way by [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

[valid niche]

i tried it with this simple test code

from discord.ext import commands

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

class Test(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self,bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self,message):
        a = 10/0
        print(a)



    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_error(self, event, *args, **kwargs):
        print(event)

bot.add_cog(Test(bot))

bot.run("TOKEN")

and it did not work

[slate swan]

maybe this is revalent

[valid niche]

ah yeah that makes sense

so it can only be dispatched to bot.event() and not to cog.listener()

[slate swan]

ye

[restive verge]

any error handler function for listeners

[slate swan]

what kind of errors are you actually trying to handle?

[restive verge]

i am creating a function if any error happens the bot will dm me what error has occured

[slate swan]

im asking , what kind of errors do you expect?

if an error in an command , use on_command_error

[inner geyser]

hey there, actually I was facing some errors, I had put some member ids in a blacklist.txt file, and I wanted the bot to not respond when a member id is in blacklist.txt file. Which wasn't really executing correctly

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command(self, ctx):
        print(ctx.command.name)
        f = open('cogs/blacklist/blusers.txt').read()
        blusers = f.split('\n')
        print(blusers)
        if str(ctx.author.id) in blusers:
            print("Error")
            return

[valid niche]

you will need to overwrite the built in on_message event

[slate swan]

this wont stop the member from using the command

[valid niche]

on_command runs when someone uses a command, but it's unable to stop the command's exeuction

[inner geyser]

umm, can u tell me how can I do it?

[restive verge]

not determined

[slate swan]

use a check , or do what sebkuip said

[inner geyser]

yeah, that is the thing

[valid niche]

or a global check works too

[slate swan]

yes

[valid niche]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.check

@check```
A decorator that adds a global check to the bot.

A global check is similar to a [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is applied on a per command basis except it is run before any command checks have been verified and applies to every command the bot has.

Note

This function can either be a regular function or a coroutine.

Similar to a command [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check"), this takes a single parameter of type [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context") and can only raise exceptions inherited from [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError").

Example...

[restive verge]

checks is the best option

[inner geyser]

ahh I see, I'll get back to u, after trying it out!

[slate swan]

[inner geyser]

have u used "await" where ur getting the error?

for your commands?

[restive verge]

for listeners

[inner geyser]

hey umm, I got this error

discord.ext.commands.errors.CheckFailure: The global check functions for command help failed.

[inner geyser]

can u show me the code, maybe I can help

[restive verge]

sometimes functions collide with each other

cogs

[inner geyser]

umm, I don't quite understand you

also

how can I fix it

[valid niche]

this means you used a global check, and the check failed, as in it didn't allow the command to run

[restive verge]

for example one listener function in cog deletes a message and another listener function in other cog receives an error

[inner geyser]

ohh I see, is there a way to fix it?

and how?

[valid niche]

there's no fix if there's no issue

you set your check to fail in this situation, and it failed, stopping the command from running

[restive verge]

@slate swan

[valid niche]

it's only raising an error so you can handle it if you want, to inform the user the check failed, or do whatever you want

[restive verge]

is there any way to fix that

[inner geyser]

@valid niche I found the thing which was giving that error and fixed it, now my code runs without any errors, but the thing is now the user is able to msg, even when his id is in blacklist.txt

[slate swan]

Discord.py is shit man

[inner geyser]

nope, it isn't but libs like nextcoord and pycoord are taking over it

so i have to str(ctx.author.user)

but author doesn't have a user attribute

[valid niche]

why?

just str(ctx.author)

[boreal ravine]

its ctx.author only

[valid niche]

author IS the user

[boreal ravine]

^

[slate swan]

ohhh

fuck man im fucking dumb

[valid niche]

or rather, it's the member in most cases

the only times it's a user is when the member left before ctx was created, or it's in DMs

[river kindle]

i created an afk command but when i set afk

async def afk (ctx, reason = None):
  current_nick = ctx.author.nick
  embed = discord.Embed (title = "AFK", description = f "{ctx.author.mention} is now ** AFK ** - ** Reason: {reason} **", color = 0x00ff00)`
  await ctx.send (embed = embed)
  await ctx.author.edit (nick = f "[AFK] {ctx.author.mention}")```

when the user is put afk, the id of the person is shown with afk, when I used `ctx.author.mention instead`

[boreal ravine]

@river kindle y pass context

[river kindle]

ah?

[valid niche]

also those spaces in the decorator are also...uncommon

it's not exactly normal to write it all with spaces

sorry it's discord make spaces

oh and one last tip: according to good naming conventions, client.command is NOT possible to exist

it would be bot.command

what doesnt?

[boreal ravine]

no

im asking how I can shorten the if statements and embeds?

[boreal ravine]

you have an if statement

that checks for certain files

my way is that u check

for every file in the arg given

no you havent understood the code

[boreal ravine]

so no need for "if statements"

which part

ping 😂

[boreal ravine]

if you wanna shorten the embeds/lines you can send it in one line

nah I don't think you understand what I meant by repeatedly calling discord.Embed

Idk how to explain tbh

nvm ill fix it by my own ty tho

[river kindle]

ctx.author.mention does not mention the user's nickname together with [AFK]

[boreal ravine]

ctx.author.mention mentions the user

[river kindle]

im trying to use ctx.author.name

if he had a nickname it'll show up

[boreal ravine]

use display_name

to display nicknames

no, i have fixed

just use ctx.author.name

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.members

[unkempt canyon]

A list of members that belong to this guild.

[slate swan]

quick question , does Role.members require member perms?

*intents

[heavy island]

im trying to print the list out:

print(ctx.message.guild.members)

but that returns this for some reason:
[<Member id=863786161600462918 name='Tebby' discriminator='5433' bot=True nick=None guild=<Guild id=server_id name='ServerName' shard_id=None chunked=False member_count=1792>>]

what am i doing wrong

[slate swan]

it returns the member objects as you can see , iterate through the list and use the attribute that you need

async def on_member_join(member): 
  embed = discord.Embed(colour=0x000000, title=f"Welcome to kiss!", description=f"There are now {len(list(member.guild.members))} members ![blackxo](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/898398960748724304.webp?size=128 "blackxo")"),

  embed.set_footer(text=f"{member.guild}", icon_url=f"{member.avatar_url}")
  channel = client.get_channel(id=896885653713870848)

  await channel.send(f'{member.mention}', embed=embed)``` not working when i have a dm on member join

any1 know why?

[slate swan]

turn on intents

[slate swan]

they are tho

lemme make sure tho hold on

oh wait , why would the embed be sent to user when you are sending it to a channel according to your code....

[slate swan]

i have a seperate one that sends an embed to dms

[slate swan]

you should send that code then?

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    print ("{} joined!".format(member.name))
    print (f'{member.guild.name}')
 
    role = member.guild.roles

    if member.guild and not member.bot:
        async with member.typing():
            embed = discord.Embed(
                title="Welcome to Kiss!",
                colour=0x000000,
            )
            embed.set_thumbnail(
                url="https://cdn.discordapp.com/icons/896885629391106080/a_b6b1f08f67118dc828195dcdc35b0f3d.gif"),
            embed.add_field(name="Make sure to read the rules and get some roles! ![scribbleheart](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/898400112173281291.webp?size=128 "scribbleheart") ",

            embed.set_footer(text="Dm zul#1337 for help")
            await member.send(embed=embed)```

so , the bot types in the member's dms?

[slate swan]

send a embed then shows it as typing

im not sure , but you cannot have 2 same events

ah, so do you know what i should change it to?

change it to a listener

replace .event to .listen() and try

[slate swan]

@client.listen() yes?

hm sure

alright gimme a sec

[ocean leaf]

create_thread is not defined

how to properly do this?

pls tell me

[slate swan]

you have an extra , after color =
remove it

[slate swan]

it must be <a textchannel object>.create_thread(......

[ocean leaf]

ctx.channel.create_thread?

[slate swan]

sure if you want to create a thread in the same channel

[ocean leaf]

yes i want

ok lemme try

i am in version 2.0

it shd work

[slate swan]

under which

[slate swan]

your embed = discord.Embed

[slate swan]

you are not , replit wont use discord.py2.0 for sure

@valid niche

[slate swan]

not this one , here py f member.guild and not member.bot: async with member.typing(): embed = discord.Embed( title="Welcome to Kiss!", colour=0x000000, ) embed.set_thumbnail(

in the code you sent above

[slate swan]

ohh

[valid niche]

again: the error was literally only there to say "hey the check failed, the user wasn't able to use the command, here is an error so you can inform the user"

it's not an actual error that you made a mistake

[slate swan]

so you want me to remove the , in this?

[valid niche]

so if you "fixed" that error, that means you removed the check

[slate swan]

remove the , after that

since you have no more kwargs there

[ocean leaf]

it says 2.0 i cloned the github repo

uhh, I see, but the thing is, when it doesn;t work, then id doesn;t work for anyone, and when it does work, then it works for everyone

i see , was that because type function was not treating the tuple as a tuple but just an argument in brackets?

[gleaming torrent]

how do I make environment variables work?

[hasty iron]

type is not a function but yes

[restive verge]

did u use checks

[inner geyser]

yeah, ofc see the code

[restive verge]

custom checks

[slate swan]

i meant the type(object) function

[hasty iron]

type is a class

[inner geyser]

umm, no, actually I don't want any of the blacklisted users to execute any command, I mean how can I go adding checks to every command

[valid niche]

you should return true when the check passes, and the user is allowed to use the command. You should return False if they are not allowed. This will cause a checkfailure error, which you can handle to inform the user that they are not allowed

that's how the intended setup is

[restive verge]

https://youtu.be/SvICXhIR4DM

[inner geyser]

ahh I get it now

[restive verge]

take this video

[inner geyser]

hmm

[restive verge]

[placid skiff]

How i can parse Member.roles so it returns me only a list of role names?

[slate swan]

you need to iterate thru it

[slate swan]

worked. now just gotta see why the dm embed isnt sending

[wicked atlas]

Parsing it isn’t really the correct term for it, but you can use a comprehension to get the role names from each of the role objects

[placid skiff]

I can treat them as a list of tuples?

[slate swan]

ofcourse discord.Guild.member returns an list
@placid skiff this was for u ^

wrong ping

[maiden fable]

!list-comp

[unkempt canyon]

Do you ever find yourself writing something like this?

>>> squares = []
>>> for n in range(5):
...    squares.append(n ** 2)
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16]

Using list comprehensions can make this both shorter and more readable. As a list comprehension, the same code would look like this:

>>> [n ** 2 for n in range(5)]
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16]

List comprehensions also get an if statement:

>>> [n ** 2 for n in range(5) if n % 2 == 0]
[0, 4, 16]

For more info, see this pythonforbeginners.com post.

You should do this

[placid skiff]

I try

[maiden fable]

And u can do role.name for role in...

[slate swan]

    async def reload(self, ctx, folder: str = None, file: str = None):
        ftype = {"commands": "cmd", "events": "event"}
        for f in ftype:
            if folder in ftype or folder in ftype.values():
                try:
                    self.client.reload_extension(f"{f}.{file}")
                except Exception as e:
                    return await ctx.send(e)

                await ctx.send("successfully reloaded")
                break
            if folder not in ftype or folder not in
                await ctx.send("invalid arguments")
                break
``` When I type event instead of cmd, it wont work because it's only iterating through the first key, how can I fix this?

[maiden fable]

Try printing ftype.values()

???

[proven jewel]

you will help me resize and make the avatar under the overlay

[maiden fable]

Don't. Just don't use replit

[slate swan]

wdym?

I already know the values

[maiden fable]

Sorry never used PIL or Pillow =(

[maiden fable]

You said it's iterating only through the first value, and not reaching the second one, so I am saying try printing it

[slate swan]

Yeah I already know why it's not doing this, but I dont know how to solve it

[proven jewel]

and come on who's for the pillow

?

[maiden fable]

Tell me why it's not doing it then....?

[slate swan]

you can use <the image instance>.resize( height , width) to resize an image
but pasting the overlay at a different scope seems a better option

[maiden fable]

I guess many people? Also try opening a help channel since this channel is specifically for help with Discord API Libraries and you would have more chances of someone helping you in a help channel

[proven jewel]

but my point is to reverse the order of the objection

[slate swan]

it's because it never can reach the second iteration because i break the loop, and if i dont break the loop, it will print twice, and on the second iteration it will raise an error because the path for the reload_extension() will be wrong

[proven jewel]

to which channel?

[maiden fable]

Why do u have the last if statement inside the loop...?

[slate swan]

i tried having it outside, it made everything worse

[maiden fable]

Also why don't u just do if folder in ftype.keys() or folder in ftype.values()?

Why u looping

[slate swan]

because i need the f

im declaring the path

        for f in ftype:
            if folder in ftype or folder in ftype.values():
                try:
                    self.client.reload_extension(f"{f}.{file}")

[maiden fable]

Can't u simply use regex or something like folder.replace("command.", "cmd.") or something?

[slate swan]

if its a cmd, f = "commands", if its a event, f = "events", but for it to be events, it needs to reach the second iteration which it doesnt

[maiden fable]

Don't ping mods or helpers randomly

[proven jewel]

sorry

[maiden fable]

Ghost Ping 😐

[placid skiff]

i solved this using lambda in the end lol

[maiden fable]

Lol cool

[wicked atlas]

In what way did you use lambda?

Just curious

[placid skiff]

i used discord.utils.find to search for the role in the list of roles

[wicked atlas]

Ah, so thats what you were doing

Trying to check if a user has a role?

[slate swan]

hey guys im trying to make a bot where if u type a command and u have a certiain role then it removes your own role

@commands.has_role('eligible')
async def name(ctx, role: discord.Role, user: discord.Member):

[placid skiff]

yes

[ocean leaf]

It returns 2.0

[placid skiff]

I couldn't use checks don't worry xD
i'm not stupid

i have to check if a user has a role that is saved in my database

[slate swan]

hello?

[placid skiff]

so until the command is executed i don't know what role that is

[wicked atlas]

Did threads ever get implemented in 2.0?

[glacial kernel]

how to make a music bot?

[ocean leaf]

Yes they did

[slate swan]

wow u guys help alot

[ocean leaf]

In 2.9 only

[wicked atlas]

We know what you want to do, but we have no idea what you need help wit

[restive verge]

search in google

[slate swan]

exactly u know what i want to do

so u know how to help

[wicked atlas]

Well, lets see, you can use Member.remove_roles i believe to remove roles

!d discord.Member.remove_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.remove\_roles

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

Removes [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s from this member.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the removed [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[placid skiff]

By the way i think i will go Crazy with the next things i want to do
Even if i think that i already know how to do that xD

[slate swan]

in that command is the *roles the name of the role

[wicked atlas]

It is a role object

Looks like your command takes a tole object as a parameter, so you should just be able to pass it in without doing anything to it

[final iron]

You can't

[slate swan]

i mean u can

but okie dokie

[wicked atlas]

You can, but you can’t get verified if you use youtubedl or other stuff

Just don’t use youtube downloaders or other things that are against tos

[final iron]

I meant you can't do it following tos

Theres no point now a days imo

[wicked atlas]

Yeah

[slate swan]

@slate swan ```@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
print ("{} joined!".format(member.name))
print (f'{member.guild.name}')

role = member.guild.roles

if member.guild and not member.bot:
    async with member.typing():
        embed = discord.Embed(
            title="Welcome to Kiss!",
            colour=0x000000,
        )
        embed.set_thumbnail(
            url="https://cdn.discordapp.com/icons/896885629391106080/a_b6b1f08f67118dc828195dcdc35b0f3d.gif"),
        embed.add_field(name="Make sure to read the rules and get some roles! ![scribbleheart](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/898400112173281291.webp?size=128 "scribbleheart") ",
        value="We are a small Edating, Aesthetic, NSFW community. ![sx3](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/898398973805604894.webp?size=128 "sx3")")
        embed.set_footer(text="Dm zul#1337 for help")
        await member.send(embed=embed)

        embed = discord.Embed(colour=0x000000, title=f"Welcome to kiss!", description=f"There are now {len(list(member.guild.members))} members ![blackxo](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/898398960748724304.webp?size=128 "blackxo")")
        embed.set_thumbnail(url=f"https://cdn.discordapp.com/icons/721726753147453583/a_e9109e9fbf8e0ecf8613cc5bb8515228.gif")
        embed.set_footer(text=f"{member.guild}", icon_url=f"{member.avatar_url}")
        channel = client.get_channel(id=896885653713870848)

    await channel.send(f'{member.mention}', embed=embed)``` is this better

[fallow mauve]

how do i make it so that if someone DMs my bot, it DMs me their message and who sent it?

kinda like @novel apex

[tight jasper]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
  my_user_id = 853991571702939668
  user = client.fetch_user(my_user_id)
  if type(message.channel) == discord.channel.DMChannel:
    await message.channel.send("Hi :)")
    await user.send(f"{message.author.name}#{message.author.discriminator} messaged your bot: `{message.content}`")

@fallow mauve that should do it?

[glacial kernel]

music bot?

[tight jasper]

i think

[sick birch]

i don't know if the UPDATE statement returns anything

[glacial kernel]

do you have something to help?

[sick birch]

what you could do is generate a UID for each warn, and do it that way maybe?

[boreal ravine]

or ifisinstance()

[tight jasper]

i used the type because i don't completely know how to use isinstance()

[sick birch]

why do you need the update?

why would you want to update a warn

one would think that you just insert a new row for each warn

How exactly?

SQLite is blazing fast

Your code is kind of confusing me because I’m not sure if UPDATE returns anything

[slate swan]

I need help Pls Dm me whoever is good at Python Bot Progamming/Coding.

How can i set the embed color later on?

[lament mesa]

embed.colour = new_colour

[slate swan]

embed doesn't have that attribute tho?

[lament mesa]

what?

[boreal ravine]

why not here lol

[lament mesa]

!d discord.Embed.colour

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.colour

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

[lament mesa]

its a property iirc

[slate swan]

ooh

[lapis lintel]

Is it correct to store data that the bot needs on a json? Or does it has to be a db?

Say for example, data of a minigame my bot has, data of which prefix the bot has on that server, things like that

[slate swan]

DB

No hesitation

Does anyone know why my bot keeps restarting randomly? I have logging setup.
It restarts without any errors.
And it happens randomly (after an hour of the startup, 3 hours after that, 10mins after that, etc.)
it re-runs on_ready, and it goes offline on discord for awhile
It shuts off then turns back on but keeps data (like the bot's uptime time)

(Shud I ask this in a help channel)

[boreal ravine]

@slate swan what host do you use?

[slate swan]

I tried multiple hosts

Google VPS, WitherHosting, Dynox, Repl.it, Heroku, and even my pc

[boreal ravine]

which one were u using

[placid escarp]

how can i make loop that checks if there are messages in channel(by id) and then delete all messages

[valid niche]

did you set up logging?
