ty

[slate swan]

Not really🤷‍♂️

so what should be the first thing i do?

you couldn't be any more wrong

I suggest learning about dpy first

and python itself

unfortunately that is not what i am looking for. thank you though!

[slate swan]

Unfortunately if you dont you will not be able to know or code your bot!

[cloud dawn]

I'm very confused on what you want.

[slate swan]

i wish to intergrate a github command into the bot. thats all.

Ctrl c and ctrl v

[sullen shoal]

like what will you even code without knowledge of the language

[slate swan]

ctrl c and v what and where to exactly?

[sullen shoal]

thats why we need to know the language

[cloud dawn]

Like the git console?

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

main.py?

[slate swan]

idk man, kids these days want everything done for them without them actually even learning what they need to know in order to do it themselves

Learn python first

[cloud dawn]

I recommend getting this -> https://desktop.github.com

[sullen shoal]

😔

[slate swan]

a person doesn't learn an entire language to become a native speaker just to learn how to say "bless you"

[slate swan]

They dont understand good things come with struggle

i just wish to do a simple thing, thats all

[slate swan]

ikr

[slate swan]

sure

[slate swan]

Who talking about that

[slate swan]

no but they learn at least the basics

[slate swan]

ikr

[sullen shoal]

never said you need to get a master degree of python

[slate swan]

^^

[cloud dawn]

Could you guys please stop arguing and calling him out?

[slate swan]

Ik this is rlly simple lol but for some reason i cant get what im doin wrong ive done images with embeds never regular thats y im lost

You have to know everyone here doesnt know python completely but are very good and knowledgeable of it

[forest spear]

So I put everything in db.put() correctly and user outside the curly brackets but in the function but it shows bad request error can you help?

[slate swan]

it's ok, my request is a little orthodox after all. i'll just do step by step whatever you guys tell me to do. the github download is almost done

You cant learn pyhon completly

[brittle ingot]

i suggest a quick read of this

[sullen shoal]

show the code

[slate swan]

What's this?

why do i have to log in for a command interface

[forest spear]

data.put({"name":username,"time":time,"quote":message},user)```

[cloud dawn]

You can also download just git but it's not really user friendly.

[slate swan]

oh well

[brittle ingot]

either way you still have to log in.

[slate swan]

think i got around that

[sullen shoal]

what is user

[forest spear]

ctx.author.id

[slate swan]

i'll assume its just clone a rep

[slate swan]

tbh i sometimes can't help it, i don't usually go out of my way to call them out and shit, i just don't help and ignore them

[sullen shoal]

convert it to a string and try

[slate swan]

auth failed

[slate swan]

Same i dont call out anybody i just suggest it for a better general experience

what should i do here exactly? can't clone

[slate swan]

same 😂

[cloud dawn]

How do you mean can't clone?

[sullen shoal]

i dont see a way to help this person, this server is about the people who are learning python, what she wants is "learning discord.py" now how do we help her with it?

[slate swan]

Me seeing the basic syntax errors like:

[slate swan]

You could tell me step by step on how to intergrate it? okimii said it was just a copy paste so it would be possible to just show me where to paste it?

[forest spear]

That seems to work but my command to show quote doesn't here is the code

@client.command()
async def showquote(ctx, discord_id:int=None):
    res = data.get(discord_id)
    embed= discord.Embed(title="Quotes", color=0x00FFFF)
    for item in res.items:
        yes2 = item["time"]
        yes1 = item["name"]
        yes3 = item["quote"]
        embed.add_field(name=f"{yes2}", value=f"Quote by:{yes1}\nQuote:{yes3}", inline=True)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed) 

[slate swan]

You have to learn python first......

[slate swan]

Says Authentication Failed

[slate swan]

by ignoring and moving on tbh, let the people that wanna help people like that help, at least that's what i do, it's easier to just ignore and not bother with it

[sullen shoal]

thats not learning python which i think this server is all about

[forest spear]

Gives me "quote_from_bytes() expected bytes" error

[cloud dawn]

I think you do need to login, sorry.

[slate swan]

weren't you supposed to install git

git is used from the command line

[slate swan]

i'm just following instructions. i was sent this link

which link 🤔

[sullen shoal]

you typehinted it to int and discord.py converted it to int and i said to convert it to str

[brittle ingot]

Im not calling anyone out. I do read that frequently to remind myself of the beliefs of the community. I remember coming in here the first time being fully aware of my deficiencies in the language and intimidated by the sheer knowledge this server's members contain. 😅 || still intimidated, tbh lmao||

[slate swan]

how to make cooldown reset on command groups?

[slate swan]

oh

i've never used that personally

i always use the CLI

how do i make cooldown reset on group command```py
@cryptomine.command(aliases = ["i"])
@commands.cooldown(1,150,commands.BucketType.user)
async def idle(ctx)

await ctx.reply(embed = buyem)
idle.reset_cooldown(ctx)

Is Atom good?

or how do i do that

for the copy pasting

[cloud dawn]

Your IDE has nothing to do with cloning.

[sullen shoal]

yes, lets just do that

[slate swan]

Agree

[slate swan]

^^

[forest spear]

Yeah sorry fixed that now it gives that "builtin_function_or_method object is not iterable" error

[slate swan]

Do i start copying from here?

[sullen shoal]

show the updated code

@forest spear

[forest spear]

@client.command()
async def showquote(ctx, discord_id:str=None):
    res = data.get(discord_id)
    embed= discord.Embed(title="Quotes", color=0x00FFFF)
    for item in res.items:
        yes2 = item["time"]
        yes1 = item["name"]
        yes3 = item["quote"]
        embed.add_field(name=f"{yes2}", value=f"Quote by:{yes1}\nQuote:{yes3}", inline=True)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed) 

[daring olive]

hi everyone. friendly reminder that no one here is ever obligated to help. unless you are willing to invest the time to help someone, please refrain from commenting at all with any disparaging messages. please read this for a primer on expectations for what help should look like in this community: https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/pydis-guides/helping-others/

[sullen shoal]

items is a dict method you have to call it

[brittle ingot]

are you trying to install discord.py?

[slate swan]

i was told that i should copy paste from github to my dpy

so i'm just trying to figure out which parts to copy

[woeful crow]

How can i set a timeout for my wait_for?

[forest spear]

Wouldn't data.get() do that?

[brittle ingot]

okay, so its a package and comes with a prebuild. You can follow set instructions in the docs that will help you get everything you need installed (i would explain it myself but it would get extremely confusing real quick 😂 ) let me get the exact link for you 😄

[slate swan]

Sure thank you very much!

[sullen shoal]

it will give you the dict and it did its job. what you're doing is using a method with it (items), where you didnt call the method

[slate swan]

mhm, we already came to that conclusion ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

^^ help

[brittle ingot]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html

Also as far as code editors Atom works, There is also PyCharm and Visual Studio Code (VSCode) for short. I personally prefer VSCode.

[slate swan]

ctx.command.reset_cooldown(ctx)

[forest spear]

But I did set a variable for data.get() as res so I'm confused

[slate swan]

thank you very much! Altough i have to admit i sort of don't understand what's being said, sorry. Am i supposed to type

"python3 -m pip install -U discord.py" in bot.py?

[slate swan]

explain

like this? : idle.cryptomine.reset_cooldown(ctx)?

[sullen shoal]

!e

d = dict(hello='world')
print(d) # deta gave you this
print(d.items) # this is something you do not deta. items is a method and you have to call it.
print(d.items())```

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | {'hello': 'world'}
002 | <built-in method items of dict object at 0x7f914b426a40>
003 | dict_items([('hello', 'world')])

[cloud dawn]

Yes you need to use CMD for this.

[slate swan]

No in cmd

[valid niche]

whilst the pip install discord.py is correct, i will tell you to rename that file, because it can conflict with commands.Bot and solving naming conflicts can be super annoying

[slate swan]

ctx.command will return you the Command object, which has the method reset_cooldown which takes in a Context object as the parameter, it's literally in the docs

time2 = datetime.now().strftime("%p") how can i find days?

what does python3 -m pip install -U discord.py do in the first place? i'd like to know what im doing before typing anything in cmd

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.reset_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command.reset\_cooldown

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

[slate swan]

is days %d

[slate swan]

i'll try to rename it but i fear it will cause a conflict somewhere else

[slate swan]

%d

[cloud dawn]

It won't unless you explicitly capitalize it iirc

[slate swan]

so i haven't touched any of the parts i was given

[sullen shoal]

https://strftime.org/

[valid niche]

python3 > start python
-m > start a module
pip > python package install tool/module
install > install a package
-U > update if already installed
discord.py > package to install

[slate swan]

how can i subtract 30 days from today?

[slate swan]

i see. it did not like that

[valid niche]

assuming you use datetime, you can subtract a timedelta from a datetime object

[woeful crow]

How can i set a timeout for my wait_for reaction_add?

[sullen shoal]

!d datetime.timedelta

[valid niche]

on windows it's just python, or py

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.timedelta

class datetime.timedelta(days=0, seconds=0, microseconds=0, milliseconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, weeks=0)```
All arguments are optional and default to `0`. Arguments may be integers or floats, and may be positive or negative.

Only *days*, *seconds* and *microseconds* are stored internally. Arguments are converted to those units...

[slate swan]

from datetutil.relativedelta import relativedelta
from datetime import datetime

now = datetime.now()
subtracted = now - relativedelta(days=30)  # You can also do months=1 instead

[forest spear]

Omg I feel so dumb now but just one more thing it says tuple indices must be integers or slices not str on the time I have stored how do I show that

[slate swan]

thanks ill try that out

oh god

lot of things happened

that can work with premium_since right

[valid niche]

that just gives you a datetime object

[slate swan]

member.premium_since(subtracted)

[slate swan]

no

[slate swan]

You have it already

[brittle ingot]

you successfully installed it

[sullen shoal]

again you have to show the code

[slate swan]

nice :)

so now that we got python, what should the next step be?

[slate swan]

Dpy*

uhhh yeah that

[brittle ingot]

so you have python and discord.py, do you have a code editor?

[forest spear]

@client.command()
async def showquote(ctx, discord_id:int=None):
    res = data.get(discord_id)
    embed= discord.Embed(title="Quotes", color=0x00FFFF)
    for item in res.items():
        yes2 = item["time"]
        yes1 = item["name"]
        yes3 = item["quote"]
        embed.add_field(name=f"{yes2}", value=f"Quote by:{yes1}\nQuote:{yes3}", inline=True)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed) 

[slate swan]

Got atom and Notepad++. i'm more comfortable in N++

[slate swan]

then should i do member.premium_since(now - relativedelta(days=30))?

[slate swan]

member.premium_since is a property which is of type datetime, so you that's what you subtract the days

@slate swan a full bot tutorial https://vcokltfre.dev/

[slate swan]

Does this cover how to do a remind me function?

[brittle ingot]

oh wow N++ i don't think i've ever used that 😂

[slate swan]

no

[slate swan]

Yes it gives you the knowledge

member.premium_since - relativedelta(days=30)

oh i'll check it out then!

OHHHH

that makes more sense

cant seem to see it

[slate swan]

Its for knowledge*

[sullen shoal]

!e

x = dict(one=1, two=2)
print(x.items())
for y in x:
    print(x[y])```

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | 1
002 | 2

[slate swan]

oh sorry thats not what i'm looking for right now. i'll check it out at a later time though!

[slate swan]

why not use .items

@slate swan do you want to learn dpy or do you just want to get spoobfeeded?

If there was a tutorial on how to do a remind me function, i'll gladly learn with that

[sullen shoal]

theyre using it the wrong way

[slate swan]

!e ```py
x = dict(one=1, two=2)
for key, value in x.items():
print(f'the key is: {key}\nthe value is: {value}\n\n\n')

[forest spear]

Uhh this is something new I just saw it's overwriting the data like it's not making new field just writing on the data that was already there it makes new fields for others but if you have a new quote to add it would just overlap the last one

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | the key is: one
002 | the value is: 1
003 | 
004 | 
005 | 
006 | the key is: two
007 | the value is: 2

[slate swan]

💀

actually i found one i'll check this one out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQvzuVQPNyQ

[sullen shoal]

idk if youre sharing information or problem

[forest spear]

Ok so in the database on the website it's overwriting the already written quote by me instead of making another field and saving it there

Code:

data.put({"name":username,"time":time,"quote":message},user) 

[sullen shoal]

what youre looking for then is a list of dict

[forest spear]

Yeah

[sullen shoal]

try using https://docs.deta.sh/docs/base/sdk#insert

it should append to a list

[slate swan]

so with this py if member.premium_since - relativedelta(days=31): i can check if someones been boosting for over a month right? or do i have to do something to see if theyve been boosting for less than a month

[sullen shoal]

instead of going through all this pain, you could keep the dict like this,

{unix_time:{}, unix_time_2:{}}```

and limit the command to be used once in a sec

using cooldowns

[forest spear]

409 error and for displaying it just shows the same error "quote_from_bytes() expected bytes" here is the code

for item in res.items():
       yes2=res[item]["time]
       print(yes2)```

[sullen shoal]

items() returns a list of tuple, each tuple's first value is the key and second value is the value of the key

item is (key, value)

[slate swan]

any way to see what the cmd window says on an unsuccessful bot bootup?

[sullen shoal]

^

[slate swan]

closes too quickly for me to read

[sullen shoal]

run in the terminal/cmd

[slate swan]

how can i run a py through cmd? i always just clicked on it to run it

[sullen shoal]

cd to the path, then py bot.py

[slate swan]

did not like that

[sullen shoal]

try python

oh

you didnt cd to the path

[slate swan]

cd? i thought you meant just copy paste the path

[sullen shoal]

> cd path/to/the/folder
> py bot.py```

[slate swan]

Syntax wrong

[sullen shoal]

cant really read that

[slate swan]

I have a variable How can I get that variable somewhere else?
Example:

while True:

  if lol:
    msg = await ctx.send("this is a test")
  elif lel:
    await msg.delete()```

[sullen shoal]

set it as an sttribute of the Bot instance

[slate swan]

think it doesnt like how one of my folder is .pics

[sullen shoal]

okay this is the solution to the extreme dumb ones,
click that and type cmd then hit enter

[slate swan]

How/where can I do that?

[sullen shoal]

what is your Bot instance called

[slate swan]

thank you very very much! i'm in now

[sullen shoal]

now type py bot.py

[forest spear]

I'm sorry I'm still confused I put a variable for data.get as res then I did a for loop for key and value in res.items() but it shows the same error "quote_from_bytes() expected bytes"

[slate swan]

just bot

[sullen shoal]

#discord-bots message

[sullen shoal]

bot.name = ''
print(bot.name)```

[slate swan]

What does that exactly do?

think i found it

[sullen shoal]

its an error from the code that you couldnt see, hence i succeeded

[forest spear]

Yeah I put dict as data.get(dict(discord_id)) still doesn't work

[slate swan]

yes! thank you very much

[sullen shoal]

idk how else to help you, im feeling like im doing the code of your bot, you should lookup the stuff you dont understand now because i have explained what i needed to

[slate swan]

wait is that seriously the problem

[sullen shoal]

sets the attribute name

[slate swan]

So what do I put in the ''

[sullen shoal]

thats the value of the attribute, put what you want it to give you when you use it?

[slate swan]

Can you give me an example with this ^

[velvet tinsel]

I need a name for a bot

[sullen shoal]

which variable

[slate swan]

msg

[velvet tinsel]

Does that really relate to discord bots?

[slate swan]

Well yea?

[velvet tinsel]

Wait nvm

[slate swan]

had a lot of issues but this is the first one i can't figure out . Any idea? formatting looks the same as in the tutorial

[sullen shoal]

bot.name_of_the_attr = msg
print(bot.name_of_the_attr)```
@slate swan

[velvet tinsel]

It has to be Asyncio

[slate swan]

oh yeah my bad. what would i need to modify again?

[velvet tinsel]

Try creating a async function for it

Probably the long way around im terrible at shortcuts

[slate swan]

there's one at the top

[velvet tinsel]

You have to do async def convert

[sullen shoal]

the code theyre showing isnt even the actual code that is causing the error

[slate swan]

@sullen shoal Yesss it worked!! Thanks

[slate swan]

i'll send the entire thing i added

    @commands.command()
    async def remind(self, ctx, time, task):
        def convert(time):
            pos = ['s', 'm', 'h', 'd']

            time_dict = {"s": 1, "m": 60, "h": 3600, "d": 3600*24}

            unit = time[-1]

            if unit not in pos:
                return -1
            try:
             val = int(time[:-1])
            except:
                return -2

            return val * time_dict[unit]

            converted_time = convert(time)

            if converted_time == -1:
                await ctx.send("Incorrect time format")
                return

            if converted_time == -2:
                await ctx.send("Intiger time")
                return
            await ctx.send(f"Started reminder for **{task}** and will last **{time}**.")

            await asyncio.sleep(converted_time)
            await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} your reminder for **{task}** has finished")

[velvet tinsel]

Yeah you have to do async def convert

[slate swan]

did exactly the same as the tutorial

[velvet tinsel]

You may have to do async def convert

[sullen shoal]

you didnt

[velvet tinsel]

Is the solution async def convert?

[slate swan]

i'm just writing it from the video to get a better grasp

[sullen shoal]

it should work if they indent the await stuff to the actual function instead of the nested one

[forest spear]

Sorry I am just super dumb and forgot to add ID to make it work but now it gives me some other error "dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1;2 is required" can you please help me

[sullen shoal]

tbh i never saw that error

[velvet tinsel]

Google

[velvet tinsel]

Ok

[velvet tinsel]

We may sound mean, but we are just trying to help you. Please google the problem first.

[slate swan]

so would this be correct?

[forest spear]

Yeah I understand thanks for all the help

[velvet tinsel]

That looks like the same exact thing

[velvet tinsel]

It’s ok

[slate swan]

added convert to the first line

[sullen shoal]

doesnt the tutorial youre following include the entire thing they did in the description

compare it with your own

[slate swan]

only a snipper

[velvet tinsel]

There should be a GitHub

[slate swan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQvzuVQPNyQ

[velvet tinsel]

When creating a economy bot I compared my code to his if I experienced any errors

[sullen shoal]

so youve decided to jump straight to the advanced ones i see

[velvet tinsel]

It was a super helpful technique, everything working well

[slate swan]

just trying my best to get this one specific function working

[velvet tinsel]

Don’t they release the code anywhere? Discord? GitHub?

[forest spear]

From Google it just says dict() doesn't like str and deta doesn't like int so any help

[velvet tinsel]

Refrain from copying and pasting. They don’t solve any errors.

[slate swan]

uh okey i wont copy paste

[sullen shoal]

unfortunately that bad tutorial didnt bother to include the code

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

What’s your problem again? I cannot see

[velvet tinsel]

I hate tutorials like that.

At least share code on GitHub or something

[slate swan]

the only other tutorial on this subject as is ee is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REJ_k3c0jpM

but it only works for seconds when i want a true reminder

[velvet tinsel]

I just need a name for an economy bot my creativity is a size of a peanut

[velvet tinsel]

What’s a reminder again?

[forest spear]

Well I'm trying to get data stored in deta database but I need to save the key value in deta as ctx.author.id and only way to do that with deta is str but dict() doesn't like str and it doesn't work so I have to use int to get the data stored there

[velvet tinsel]

I do not understand discord

[slate swan]

basically just want my bot to be able to do

.remind 5h 30m "Bake beans"

[velvet tinsel]

Try using a dictionary

[slate swan]

and in 5h 30m it pings me to say

@slate swan Bake beans

[sullen shoal]

i just watched some parts of that tutorial and im not going to lie, that kid's code is straight up crap

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

Just use date time

[slate swan]

uh whats that?

[forest spear]

That is what I'm doing unless you mean something else

[brittle ingot]

Bruhh that’s my tutorial….

||just kidding||

[slate swan]

lmaoooo

[brittle ingot]

!d date time

[unkempt canyon]

date

date

For datetime fields, casts the value as date. Allows chaining additional field lookups. Takes a date value.

Example:

Entry.objects.filter(pub_date__date=datetime.date(2005, 1, 1))
Entry.objects.filter(pub_date__date__gt=datetime.date(2005, 1, 1))
```  (No equivalent SQL code fragment is included for this lookup because implementation of the relevant query varies among different database engines.)...

Similar names: templatefilter.date

[slate swan]

none of the tutorials seem to help though

[brittle ingot]

Oop autocorrected

!d datetime

[unkempt canyon]

datetime

Source code: Lib/datetime.py

The datetime module supplies classes for manipulating dates and times.

While date and time arithmetic is supported, the focus of the implementation is on efficient attribute extraction for output formatting and manipulation.

[normal ginkgo]

How do I make a command to add, remove things?

[slate swan]

oh god 2000 lines what is so long in this thing

[brittle ingot]

What things?

[sullen shoal]

what things

[normal ginkgo]

Strings

Like a list of strings

[sullen shoal]

check out the list methods. it depends on what youre trying to do

https://www.programiz.com/python-programming/methods/list/

[normal ginkgo]

Example:
!add hello

[slate swan]

Could you elaborate why the code is crap exactly?

[normal ginkgo]

Then when I do !list it shows hello

[sullen shoal]

bare try-except, not following the pep8 styleguide, nested long functions and some stuff could be improved

[slate swan]

but it should work, right?

[sullen shoal]

if he has the confidence to upload it on youtube, it should work

although not the best practice

[forest spear]

Sorry but can no one help with my issue?

[velvet tinsel]

Read the docs

[slate swan]

that's good enough for me. I can make a better one when i'll have a good grasp on python

[sullen shoal]

its not good to start with bad practices

[slate swan]

I agree but i'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, so i'd just like to get this method out of the way first

i just wanna know why it doesnt work

[pliant gulch]

It uses asyncio.sleep, if the bot restarts it will cancel the unmute process making the user muted forever

And they are hosting on repl.it which isn't recommened

And after watching a bit of the youtube link you sent, I can see they barely understand it

[slate swan]

oh damn that's pretty major. thankfully i dont use the bot to mute

[pliant gulch]

The code they show off it copy pasted as well seems like??

The time conversion part at least..

[sullen shoal]

replit is public. you could grab the url in the address bar to see their code if they havent deleted the project

[slate swan]

aight i'll type that in

seems to be stuck in a loop of waking up

AIGHT GOT IT

got the exact command

what....

[pliant gulch]

Use either tabs or spaces

[brittle ingot]

Oop copiers curse

[pliant gulch]

Not both

[sullen shoal]

haha

[slate swan]

i just copied the entire command

[pliant gulch]

Checks out

[sullen shoal]

especially, its coming from replit

[pliant gulch]

I don't understand why repl.it makes the default tab space 2 spaces

Makes no sense to me

[slate swan]

so what should i do exactly? rewrite all tabs?

[sullen shoal]

it also has weird whitespace bugs that cant be seen but python gives that error

[pliant gulch]

Does repl.it even turn tabs into space like any IDE should do?

[brittle ingot]

i've used various languages and in all its 4 spaces (1 tab) at least that is what i've always done

[slate swan]

way to make invisible characters visible in atom?

[sullen shoal]

i dont think so

[slate swan]

so..... what am i to do now

[brittle ingot]

render white space under view tab?

[pliant gulch]

Re-indent the code you copy and pasted

[sullen shoal]

and its hard to explain what i did to fix it

[sullen shoal]

basically this

[pliant gulch]

Indent with whatever you were indenting with before, be it spaces or tabs

But not both

[slate swan]

How can i use discord.AllowedMentions

aight reindented them

WHAT

[velvet tinsel]

?

[slate swan]

HAHAHAHHA thank you all so so so much for helping and not giving up on me and my unorthodox request!

[velvet tinsel]

Well done!

[slate swan]

How can i use client.allowed_mentions?

[velvet tinsel]

Read the docs pls

[slate swan]

!d discord.AllowedMentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.AllowedMentions

class discord.AllowedMentions(*, everyone=True, users=True, roles=True, replied_user=True)```
A class that represents what mentions are allowed in a message.

This class can be set during [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") initialisation to apply to every message sent. It can also be applied on a per message basis via [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send "discord.abc.Messageable.send") for more fine-grained control.

[slate swan]

Bet

[velvet tinsel]

There you go

Read the docs was easy

I need a name for a economy bot

[slate swan]

on quick question though, if i set a reminder,, then i shut the bot down but restart it before the reminder would have expired, would it still "remember" the reminder?

and if yes, would it have kept track while it was shut down?

[velvet tinsel]

No

[sullen shoal]

i dont think that kids code does that

[slate swan]

so if the bot goes down its rip

[velvet tinsel]

Well if you turn the bot off then…

It doesn’t work

[slate swan]

that's not what i was asking

[velvet tinsel]

You’ll have to make your bot 24/7

[slate swan]

its practically that anyways

well that still sucks

[velvet tinsel]

But if you want to remember it you can make a dict

[slate swan]

but still, lets go

[slate swan]

o? could you elaborate?

[velvet tinsel]

Make a key called the name of the reminder and then the value would be the time remaining

You can change that each time (like every second)

[slate swan]

uhhhh

[velvet tinsel]

And when you turn it off it stops

And then if you re run it…it doesn’t work anymore but at least it’s saved

[slate swan]

so its useless anyways

[sullen shoal]

you can make it work with some knowledge

[slate swan]

one day i'll surely

but for now this carcrash of a code will work fine enough

[velvet tinsel]

Do dictionaries work?

[sullen shoal]

for?

[velvet tinsel]

What they are describing

Saving the reminders?

[brittle ingot]

Do we have a steps to starting a project message in here?

[velvet tinsel]

(With the value of course)

[sullen shoal]

not recommended but yes

[velvet tinsel]

Yes I always do the long way (but sometimes it’s the most obvious way and I follow the zen of python)

[velvet tinsel]

Yes. 1. Post the error and include code. 2. There is no 2.

[brittle ingot]

that isn't starting a project thats asking for help 😂

[safe depot]

future: <Task finished name='Task-112' coro=<Player.check_queue() done, defined at /music.py:24> exception=IndexError('list index out of range')>
Traceback (most recent call last):

 IndexError: list index out of range```

Can anyone help me find the issue please kind of stuck

[velvet tinsel]

I do not the understand

What do you mean by starting a project

[velvet tinsel]

Index is out of range and pls include code

We can’t help you if you don’t have code

[brittle ingot]

you are accessing a list that does not have the amount of information in it you think it does. Lists start at 0 so if you want the first item make sure your index is [0]

[velvet tinsel]

They have not provided the code and that answer may be incorrect

We will never know until they do reveal the code

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @safe depot!

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:

https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[velvet tinsel]

Haste bin is recommended

OH LETS GO IPAYFORWINRAR

[safe depot]

Hi thank for the reply this is my code https://paste.pythondiscord.com/keputamiba.py

[slate swan]

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[slate swan]

youtube_dl in your project breaches the terms of service of YouTube, and therefore we can't help you.

[velvet tinsel]

Yes I think he’s right

[safe depot]

oh sorry forget i asked 😭

[velvet tinsel]

Try printing the list

Ok nothing ever happened bye

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

Yes

[velvet tinsel]

Do you have any names for a economy bot

My creativity is the size of a waterbear

[slate swan]

Winconomy

[velvet tinsel]

Never mind

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

I’ll sleep on it

[slate swan]

I'm in fact still searching for a bot name, been around 2-3 days

Not the best when it comes to creativity :p

[velvet tinsel]

Yes

[sullen shoal]

i lookup the english dictionary for names

[velvet tinsel]

I guess that’s what programmers lack

[velvet tinsel]

I sleep on it for days and sometimes I use a generator or I ask Reddit

It’s been a day nobody replied

One of my posts got taken down apparently it broke the rules

[velvet tinsel]

Oh yeah your GitHub stuff is pretty cool I’m still looking through it

[sullen shoal]

nice

[slate swan]

@sullen shoal Can I only have 1 Attribute in my Bot? Because I have 2 now. The first one works, but the second one doesn't.

[sullen shoal]

the arrchived ones are crap

[velvet tinsel]

Oh

I was looking though one

[sullen shoal]

you can have as many you want but dont replace the ones which are part of the class

the archived one are old, they might still work but the code is dumb

[velvet tinsel]

Attributes?

[velvet tinsel]

Oh

[sullen shoal]

yes

[velvet tinsel]

Is he talking about discord py?

Which part of it

[sullen shoal]

the Bot class

[velvet tinsel]

Client.command?

[sullen shoal]

they want to access variables from everywhere

[velvet tinsel]

Oh

[sullen shoal]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, help_command=<default-help-command>, description=None, **options)```
Represents a discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin") to provide the functionality to manage commands.

[velvet tinsel]

Oh

That one

I thought that was basic stuff

Right I’m gonna leave tommyinnit server annoying

I CANT LEAVE

WTH

[sullen shoal]

i gotta go and enjoy my life now, gn

[brittle ingot]

Starting a new Command or bot project?

Thats great! Don't just jump in an go. I know it may not be fun but there are a few crucial steps that should be considered before even starting your project. Let's take a look at some of the crucial things you should work out before starting your command or bot project.

1. What is it?
I think every developer agrees that knowing exactly what it is that you want to create before you create it is a crucial step. Albeit obvious but crucial nonetheless. Sit down and think about what type of bot or command you will create. Is it a utility bot or command, maybe moderation.

2. How will it function?
How will your command or bot work. This can be one of the more complicated parts. For bot projects it may be best to open up google docs to hash this out, otherwise just stating the concept would work for a command (unless complicated). Write out exactly how you want your command to function, from user input to code flow, storage, and lastly execution & return. Why is this important? If you know what you are making, and how you would like it to work, you are more likely to figure out ways to complete this while working these things out.

3. What do I need for this to work?
This is usually a broad topic as it can be as specific as a particular package or as complex as having to learn about a whole new concept of Python that you have never needed or even considered before. Whatever it is, this is where you are creating those building blocks to get yourself ready to code your project.

4. Executing your plan
Finally! We are creating our project! We have installed the packages we need and know exactly how we want it to work. Researched topics that we were unfamiliar with and have a great grasp on where to begin, plus we've created the steps to follow to complete our project.

Why do I say all of this? I say this because not only does it help you. But it helps the Community of developers you may be asking for help if you get stuck. We can easily identify what you need and where you may need it, If you know ahead of time what you are looking to do, how you expect it to work, and have a general idea of what you need in order for it to work.

In conclusion, I know its extremely hard to take a step back and think before diving right in, but having a plan ahead of time may just keep you motivated to continue if it gets frustrating.

Happy Programming!

[normal ginkgo]

How…

[brittle ingot]

it doesnt look like you have a ) on your ctx.send in line 49

[normal ginkgo]

Lmao

Im such an idiot

[brittle ingot]

i'd be lying if i said that isn't a normal occurance 😂

[slate swan]

Inattention mistakes can always happen

[velvet tinsel]

Yes

[slate swan]

Everyone made at least one, if not much much more

[velvet tinsel]

I agree much

[brittle ingot]

for me every line, of every code, i write every day. ||not really but happens more than i care to admit||

[velvet tinsel]

When is it never a normal occurrence 😂

[velvet tinsel]

When you create new code, I swear to god there must be more than 100 errors

That’s normal

It’s programming 😭😭

Every meme is about errors

[slate swan]

Allow me to introduce myself:

[normal ginkgo]

Lmao

How?

[velvet tinsel]

Normal. Actually that’s way too small, what are you doing

[brittle ingot]

lmfao i only listen to errors that stop my code from running 😂

[velvet tinsel]

I get an average of 2000 per line, your code is god level code (don’t ask how ok)

When I get really lucky my entire code adds up to 10000

[slate swan]

That's why I love coding my entire programs in one single line

[velvet tinsel]

😂😂😂

[velvet tinsel]

Oh yeah, totally

[brittle ingot]

no its not, is it really?

[velvet tinsel]

*sarcasm intended *

[slate swan]

I was experiencing ok

[velvet tinsel]

Nah man, you were doing the best. An average expert has around 1000 errors as well

Maybe we’re scaring away beginners

🤔

[sullen shoal]

you have to code blindly for that many errors tbh

[brittle ingot]

just remember my 10 steps to success 🤣

[normal ginkgo]

How? I made a whole bot and was getting 5 errors max and they would stop my whole program lmao

[velvet tinsel]

Sarcasm intended

[slate swan]

In the end, we just need 3/4 keys as developers

[velvet tinsel]

My keyboard is an enigma

I type something new every time

[slate swan]

Which are:

• Ctrl
• A
• C
  and finally
• V

[normal ginkgo]

I saw someone with 4539 errors tho

Long ago

[velvet tinsel]

Too little

[brittle ingot]

hold up? A?

[velvet tinsel]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[velvet tinsel]

Select all

[slate swan]

For GitHub raw content

[brittle ingot]

oh lmfao

[velvet tinsel]

You use windows?

[slate swan]

[brittle ingot]

mac

[velvet tinsel]

Roses are red, violets are blue, CTRL C, CTRL V, I took your code

[slate swan]

But that's an expensive keyboard, cheaper ones only have Ctrl, C and V

[velvet tinsel]

👍

[brittle ingot]

Roses are red, violets are blue, your code works in my bot too 🤣

[velvet tinsel]

😂😂😂😂

[slate swan]

As dani would say, hippity hoppity your code is now my property

[velvet tinsel]

Roses are red, my tears are blue, your code doesn’t work in my code boo

[velvet tinsel]

Yes 😂

[brittle ingot]

🤣

lmao py

[velvet tinsel]

Literally every software engineer: haha CTRL v go brrr

You gotta admit most of your code was copied

[brittle ingot]

Its not copying if you try to understand it

[velvet tinsel]

True true

That’s the point of tutorials innit

[slate swan]

my code is 100% ||not|| mine

[velvet tinsel]

||me too||

[brittle ingot]

gonna be honest, making a package for python right now. ||100% got some other dev concepts in there||

[slate swan]

As my last message for today, I'd like to give a minute of silence to all bot developers that have this situation and come here.
Please take some time for them

[slate swan]

now what

[brittle ingot]

lmfao

[slate swan]

||search more cuz why code it urself||

[brittle ingot]

||didn't copy that just now||

[slate swan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fg3LrzlmENw
this is me when i wanna add a new feature to my bot

[wild oak]

I have no clue why this is happening AGAIN

fixed it nvmd

one thing after another omgggg

and they are all loaded

[brittle ingot]

where is your help command?

[slim whale]

is there any import for collection ?

[brittle ingot]

collection?

[wild oak]

great queston

question

[brittle ingot]

do you have a help cog?

did you remove the default help command and not replace it with anything?

[slim whale]

  File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/bot.py", line 939, in invoke
    await ctx.command.invoke(ctx)
  File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 863, in invoke
    await injected(*ctx.args, **ctx.kwargs)
  File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 94, in wrapped
    raise CommandInvokeError(exc) from exc
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'collection' is not defined```

[brittle ingot]

what is the command its referring to?

[slim whale]

afk

[brittle ingot]

can you show it?

[slim whale]

yes

[wild oak]

omg this templates so messed upppppppppppp i only use it cuz im lazy and i used it before but now its being stupid and now it aint got a help command

[slim whale]

but its mixed with other things, im going to send it in parts

[wild oak]

also like none of the commands are working

[slim whale]

like the on message in another part

[brittle ingot]

template?

[brittle ingot]

ok

[slim whale]

@bot.command()
async def afk(ctx, *, reason=None):
    embed = discord.Embed(timestamp=ctx.message.created_at, color=0x87CEEB)
    embed.set_footer(text="something")
    post = {
        "member": ctx.message.author.id,
        "reason": reason,
        "date": str(ctx.message.created_at)
        }
        
    if reason == None:
        collection.insert_one(post)
        embed.add_field(name=f"{ctx.author.name} is now AFK", value="Reason: No reason specified.")
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)
    else: 
        collection.insert_one(post)
        embed.add_field(name=f"{ctx.author.name} is now AFK", value=f"Reason: {reason}", inline=False)
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[slate swan]

It's in fact using slash commands

[slim whale]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.mentions: 
    results = collection.find({"member": message.author.id}) 
    for result in results:
      collection.delete_one(result)
      if message.content == result:
        await message.channel.send(f"This person is currently AFK, Reason? {reason}")
        await bot.process_commands(message)
  else:
    await bot.process_commands(message)  ```

[slate swan]

Let me send a screenshot of my server automated answers

[brittle ingot]

what does collection have to do with it?

[wild oak]

WHAT

[brittle ingot]

like where do you get collection from/

[slim whale]

saw an example to see how to do it, no idea what collection is

[slate swan]

There you go.

[slim whale]

xd

[brittle ingot]

that's ur bot?

[slim whale]

yes

going to try something else bc i dont know how to use that

[brittle ingot]

oh no i mean winrar.

[slim whale]

oh

[brittle ingot]

Collection looks like its referring to mongodb. and im assuming you don't have that set up? i would recommend postgreSQL or SQLite3

[wild oak]

UGHHH theres sum already in it about slash commands

im so confused and slow

[slim whale]

going to see

tnx for help

[brittle ingot]

np, good luck

[slim whale]

thanks! <3

[slate swan]

This is just to log in the console when, where and by who a slash command has been executed.

[brittle ingot]

ngl i know nothing about slash command with Python. I've only used discord.js for slash commands.

[slate swan]

Take a look at the two embeds I've sent.

[brittle ingot]

i've never had it take an hour though. Usually if you reinvite the bot it automatically adds the slash commands 😄

Hold a second Win did you actually create that template?

Anyways, im off to actually complete some work tonight 😂

[wild oak]

@slate swan BRO OMG

Your the creator of the template!!!!!!!!

[slate swan]

[wild oak]

DUDE IM sorry if i said anything like its trash its really not ive been using it for like the past 10 months maybe

[slate swan]

Well, I take every critical opinion in a very good way. It's a way to improve it so that everyone can be happy about it :)

[wild oak]

i was looking for a python bot template thats lightweight and easy to setup so i can just have it on a rasberry pi running 24/7

and i found yours omg i didnt know you were the creator untill i looked at your username

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[woeful crow]

How can i set a timeout for my wait_for reaction_add?

[wild oak]

Dude ill show you what i did to your template before my rasberry pi overheated gimme a sec

[brittle ingot]

im back. Procrastination level 1000

[summer wave]

kwarg timeout in bot.wait_for

[woeful crow]

ah, ty

[slate swan]

[summer wave]

like await bot.wait_for('reaction_add', check=mycheck, timeout=30.0)

[brittle ingot]

Sorry didn't mean to out you like that :/

[slate swan]

[jade tartan]

Is there any one who i can dm that could help me make a command that i want my functioned bot to do? If that make sense

[wild oak]

Sorry it took so long i had to edit out the links @slate swan

your literally the start of me learning python

[slate swan]

Glad to hear that :D

[wild oak]

I edited the weather command to have a custom background, I saw the website that u used for it and i was like WOAH thats alot of more stuff i can add i added a minecraft achievement, meme generator, a lot of other stuff wow holy

Is there any way i can still use a prefix with your bot tho

if not ill just stick to / commands

[slate swan]

You can always make normal commands

This will be made when I'm moving everything to disnake

[wild oak]

I cant believe i was asking for help with the template

then the literall guy who made it

helps me

[slate swan]

[brittle ingot]

literally got nothing done today 😂
https://github.com/Discord-Guardian-System/PyGuard/blob/main/src/PyGuard/PyGuard.py
i at least created the repo 😂

[slate swan]

Better than nothing

[brittle ingot]

Its a learning process. Never attempted it before. Im on a mission to challenge myself 😂

[slate swan]

Oh well, just like my projects

Attempting things I've never tried in the past and hope for the best

[brittle ingot]

yessir. I realized almost all of my knowledge is discord lib based. And outside of it i had no idea where to begin. so where better than a webserver, api and some packages 😂

[slate swan]

Yeah, but in the end it won't be wasted time. So it's worth the hassle

[brittle ingot]

The way i see it, is its all projects i can present to a potential employer in the future.

[slate swan]

Exactly

[upbeat vigil]

hey, when i run this code, and type 'test', the bot spams the output until it gets rate limited, is there a way i can prevent that?

[brittle ingot]

change it to contains() or .startswith() or make it a bool by checking if the content.lower() == "test"

if message.content.startswith("test"):
    ... more code

or

if message.content == "test":
    ... more code

[dusk dust]

how to handle multiple reactions? (using await bot.wait_for("reaction_add"))

[upbeat vigil]

thank you :)

[slate swan]

@slate swan lovely profile picture

Thank you, appreciate it

[brittle ingot]

if you have more than one reaction on your message you can use if/elif/else to check if the reactions are the ones you want:

if str(reaction.emoji) == '🔗 ':
    ... do stuff

[slate swan]

[dusk dust]

how do you know the emoji that i will put??

[slate swan]

pays for

[slate swan]

I get it

[brittle ingot]

wait is that the emoji you wanted? im slightly confused. or are you asking how you can code the bot that it can anticipate any emoji?

[dusk dust]

nono

just... you guessed the emoji I'm going to put

[slate swan]

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a seer

[brittle ingot]

oh lol ||it was one of my recents||

[brittle ingot]

🤣

[dusk dust]

but, in this case i don't will use bot.wait_for, yes?

[slate swan]

||imagine not having winrar||

You probably want to use the event

!d discord.on_raw_reaction_add

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_raw\_reaction\_add

discord.on_raw_reaction_add(payload)```
Called when a message has a reaction added. Unlike [`on_reaction_add()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_reaction_add "discord.on_reaction_add"), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

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

[slate swan]

What a shame

[slate swan]

Yup

[brittle ingot]

are you just trying to put it so whenever someone reacts to a specific message it triggers or is it a specific message for a specific set time?

[dusk dust]

someone reacts to a specific message it triggers

its a help command

with menus

[brittle ingot]

then i would use a wait_for personally since its a set time until it should time out (usually)

[dapper cobalt]

Aqua name. Love it!

[slate swan]

I'd rather have a purple name, but aqua is fine

[brittle ingot]

Scopes!

lol

[slow fog]

7-zip moment

[slate swan]

How can I ignore all errors that happen in my script? I'm not talking about using try-statements

[slow fog]

what do you mean exactly

like an error handler?

[slate swan]

If somewhere an error happens. I want to ignore that error and not print it anywhere. Just like for the try-statement but for the whole script

[slate swan]

Yes maybe

[slow fog]

oh

there is but i dont really remember

[brittle ingot]

on_command_error event

[flint cosmos]

Hi I am trying to make it so someone who is hosting the discord bot can send a message in their terminal and make the bot say something whilst also being able to read messages that people are saying. I found a way to asynchronously check for input from a user on python but I am not sure where to put it.

userInput = await aioconsole.ainput() < This is the code I dont know where to put
await message.channel.send(userInput) 

[brittle ingot]

that i dont know, Im pretty sure there is some type of keyboard interrupt or something not related to discord.py you could look into. where it would go in your code i have no clue.

[cloud dawn]

Or use a web solution instead :D

[slate swan]

How do I know if someones roles have updated? E.G they had no roles, now they have X role?

is there an on_role_change event?

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.on_member_update

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_update

discord.on_member_update(before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") updates their profile.

This is called when one or more of the following things change:

• nickname

• roles

• pending...

async def on_member_update(before, after):
    if len(before.roles) < len(after.roles):
        newRole = next(role for role in after.roles if role not in before.roles)
        if newRole.name == "RolesRemoved":
            #Remove all of their roles.

How would I remove all of the users roles from this? on_member_update only takes those 2 parameters.

[pliant gulch]

You want to remove all roles from the user after it detects RolesRemoved role in the member?

[slate swan]

yep

[pliant gulch]

You can do await after.edit(roles=[])

[slate swan]

lemme try

oh ye ty ❤️

[pliant gulch]

👍

[slate swan]

await after.edit(roles=[])

if I wanna give them 1 role instead of none, can I just put the ID or name inside of roles=[] because i'm getting this error: AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'id'

[pliant gulch]

You need to pass a snowflake object

Basically a object that has an id attribute

[slate swan]

yuh I have the ID of the role: 910800167664488508

[pliant gulch]

So just create a discord.Object instance with the role's id

!d discord.Object

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Object

class discord.Object(id)```
Represents a generic Discord object.

The purpose of this class is to allow you to create ‘miniature’ versions of data classes if you want to pass in just an ID. Most functions that take in a specific data class with an ID can also take in this class as a substitute instead. Note that even though this is the case, not all objects (if any) actually inherit from this class.

There are also some cases where some websocket events are received in [strange order](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/21) and when such events happened you would receive this class rather than the actual data class. These cases are extremely rare.

x == y Checks if two objects are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the object’s hash.

[pliant gulch]

Once you create it, just add it to the list and pass to roles kwarg of edit

[slate swan]

alr lemme try

[rustic temple]

hello good people

is there a check for if your bot is playing anything or not?

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def on_member_update(before, after):
    temp = discord.Object(910800167664488508)
    if len(before.roles) < len(after.roles):
        newRole = next(role for role in after.roles if role not in before.roles)
        if newRole.name == "BannedFromTrading":
            channel = bot.get_channel(910793779508838401)
            await channel.send("user has been given bannedfromtrading")
            await after.edit(roles=[])
            await after.edit(roles=temp)

returns TypeError: 'Object' object is not iterable

[pliant gulch]

You didn't pass a list, you passed an object

You should be passing [temp]

[slate swan]

oh right

yea

[pliant gulch]

And it makes no sense to have two edit calls, your just making two API calls

Just have the one where you pass [temp]

[slate swan]

await after.edit(roles=[temp])

[pliant gulch]

And it will remove all roles and add temp

[slate swan]

instead of 2

[pliant gulch]

Mhm

ty again <

[normal ginkgo]

I have a question

So you guys know bots can put a link inside of a word? How do I get my bot to detect something with on_message from that link inside the word?

[normal ginkgo]

Lets say the word says “american” but the link inside has the word “indian”, how do I detect the word indian? Because it will show american

[slate swan]

How to make so if anyone dm the bot it responds to the user on the bot's dm?

[gaunt ice]

show code

[gaunt ice]

I'm sry idk

[tiny ibex]

https://github.com/Sheepposu/discord.py/blob/master/examples/receive_vc_audio.py
Can someone explain me this

[normal ginkgo]

How do I get my bot to print the link in the hyperlink?

[gaunt ice]

this is a big asf music bot or something

[tiny ibex]

Not a music bot exactly

[gaunt ice]

hey u can make message hyperlink in embeds but not in normal messages

[tiny ibex]

if isinstance(ctx.channel, discord.channel.DMChannel):```

[normal ginkgo]

Yeah ik

[slate swan]

for invite in invites_before_join:
        if invite.uses < find_invite_by_code(invites_after_join, invite.code).uses:

returns this error (sometimes)

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'uses'```

can someone explain to me why this happens and how I fix it

[normal ginkgo]

Anyone know how to use regex here?

[gaunt ice]

to do that u need to make a embed

embedOrki = discord.Embed(title="Orki's error fix", description="You can visit about the error [here](link)")
await ctx.send(embed=embedOrki)

[slate swan]

If a check is false the coroutine stops right?

[tiny ibex]

How to stop auto-packaging on repl

[gaunt ice]

u can't lul

[tiny ibex]

.......

Fck replit -,-

[gaunt ice]

if the if function is false is false the code will be executed under it

wait what u askin

[slate swan]

You gave me 5 strokes

[gaunt ice]

lul

show code wen

[slate swan]

Never its a basic check

[gaunt ice]

am not pro in python I just started it like 1 week ago

Bro why are reactions and roles so damn confusing in docs

    @commands.command()
    async def role(self, ctx, choice):
        if choice == 'create':
            await ctx.message.delete()
            await ctx.send('Spamming role creation..')
            await ctx.send('Please wait...')
            print('Spam role creating procession has begun!')
            for i in range(1, 25):
                await ctx.guild.create_role(name=f'testing role')
        elif choice == 'delete':
            await ctx.message.delete()
            await ctx.send('Spamming role deletion..')
            await ctx.send('Please wait...')
            print('Spam role deleting procession has begun!')
            roles = ctx.guild.roles
            roles.pop(0)
            for role in roles:
                if ctx.guild.me.roles[-1] > role:
                    await roles.delete()
                else:
                    await ctx.send('There was an error while deleting the roles.')
        else:
            await ctx.send('Not a valid option.')

For some reason I am being rate limited, it wasnt doing it yesterday though.
Any reasons it could be?

They make 0 sense

Mention me if you know: #discord-bots message

[meager lynx]

Not sure the cause, maybe add a small delay between each action? Could be triggering something because it sends messages too fast

[slate swan]

But which messages, because all I'm trying to make it so it mass deletes all the server roles. The Create function works, just not the delete function

[slate swan]

@slate swan Excuse me good sir sorry for the ping but is this correct

[meager lynx]

For troubleshooting purposes, I would just add a sizeable delay to everything to see if it is even a feasible solution

[slate swan]

alright

[meager lynx]

Gotta go for a while, you can msg me while im gone and ill look after

[slate swan]

👍

for invite in invites_before_join:
        if invite.uses < find_invite_by_code(invites_after_join, invite.code).uses:

anyone know why i'm getting this error and or how to fix it

[magic ore]

Find invites by code is returning None

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)

            await ctx.send("true")
        if not ctx.author.is_on_mobile():
            await ctx.send("false")
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"ERROR: {e}")
        await ctx.send("Error")```

why is that not working

[meager lynx]

Error message?

[pale zenith]

do you have the Presences intent? @slate swan

[slate swan]

OO

[pale zenith]

its needed to get this info

[stone moon]

anyway I can add roles via their role name? For context I have a ton of roles that are just 1 number increasing, and member’s roles ascend in numbers the more they interact. I can add a role based on their current role number + 1

[pale zenith]

you can use discord.utils.get

e.g.

:DDD

[tiny ibex]

And how do I solve that👀

[stone moon]

all parameters are needed right

[pale zenith]

how so

[pale zenith]

good question

o

[tiny ibex]

Tell me a guwd answer😩

[pale zenith]

https://github.com/xrisk/heroku-opus.git

a guwud answer

[tiny ibex]

Lemme see

[tiny ibex]

How to add it

Can't figure out

[pale zenith]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

idk I dont use 🤢heroku🤢

[slate swan]

Heroku isnt bad

It is but is the best option for being a free option

[pale zenith]

[slate swan]

am i wrong tho?

i think im stupid but

this is my code

client.run(token) bot=True)

somone give me the real one

[slate swan]

client.run("token")

[maiden fable]

Remove the bot=True thing

[slate swan]

forgot that isnt a int its a complex

bruh

[maiden fable]

Ah

Replit

[slate swan]

@slate swan actually add your token add dont add it like i said cuz its replit

[maiden fable]

Idk why but bots are getting ratelimited more nowadays on replit

[slate swan]

when i put the old one it worked for me

[slate swan]

you shouldnt its replit its public

and when i put the token it gave me alot of erros

it was working prefcetly fine 2 minutes ago

iirc its client.run(os.getenv(token))

so i just say client.run(os.getenv(token))

why cant i just send u the replit in dms

so tired rn

[slate swan]

no actually make a .env file and store your token to a var and use the method

so wahts actually the whole code

[slate swan]

dont use replit and i dont help in dms

bro im on chrombook i have to use replit

[slate swan]

dont use replit

im on chrombook i have to

alr i never said anything about it ?

man im nerver gonna make my bot online ervery again 😭

[brittle ingot]

no you don't you can install vscode with the linux distro on your Chromebook

😄

[slate swan]

@brittle ingot why cant people download other ides i dont quite understand cuz of the os?

what should i click on @brittle ingot

[brittle ingot]

go to settings > advanced > developer on your chome book and press enable linux beta

[brittle ingot]

Chromebook only allows apps from the google playstore essentially.

[slate swan]

ripppppp

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @tiny ibex!

It looks like you tried to attach a Python file - please use a code-pasting service such as https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[slate swan]

!code @tiny ibex

[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.

[tiny ibex]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/uzisojocix.coffeescript

Please help

[brittle ingot]

yeah. so you have to enable linux beta and download the .deb version of vscode.

[slate swan]

that works too

guys i put my bot token at like next to the token but when u scroll down in main py it says client.run(token, bot=True) SOMONE TELL ME THE RIGHT CODE HERE

[tiny ibex]

What's the issue?

[slate swan]

the issues is

[slate swan]

as said dont put your token in your main file in replit

my bot is working preficetly find like 5mintues ago and i think i click on something wrong my code rn is client.run(token, bot=True) idk why it gives me erros it was the same code but i click on smthing '

[slate swan]

i put it on the main file and it worked prefcetly find

[tiny ibex]

Show the error please

[slate swan]

yes ofc it will but its public your token is leaked

[tiny ibex]

Don't use repl

That's your issue

[slate swan]

IM ON CHROMBOOK

[tiny ibex]

It's rate limiting you

[slate swan]

omg man

[slate swan]

hes using a chromebook

[tiny ibex]

How does that even matter

[slate swan]

wydm how it matter

[brittle ingot]

You're being rate-limited. Which isn't surprising considering repl.it is using the same IP for every user. so if there is a user that is using repl.it to host a nukebot. If discord bans that bot it bans ALL bots on repl.it including yours

[slate swan]

he cant download a other ide bruh

[tiny ibex]

He can use heroku for hosting

[brittle ingot]

oh god no.

[slate swan]

i swear your giving me strokes each second

[tiny ibex]

Heroku is better than replit

[slate swan]

nah

[brittle ingot]

they're both bad

[slate swan]

vs is

[tiny ibex]

They are but they are free

[slate swan]

[brittle ingot]

so is self-hosting

[tiny ibex]

And that's the thing normal hoomans like me want

[tiny ibex]

Imagine

[slate swan]

free doesnt mean good

[slate swan]

not a flex lmfao

[tiny ibex]

IK but I can't have paid services

I am poor😭

[brittle ingot]

If you have VSCode you can self-host and not use repl or heroku. ||my bots have always stayed online with vscode||

[slate swan]

how with keep-alive or do you just run it

[tiny ibex]

I don't want my PC to run 24/7
The CPU perfomance will go down

[vocal plover]

thats not true

there'll be high energy usage but it wont affect the cpu

[maiden fable]

Alec and Halloween? Hmm

[tiny ibex]

It kinda will

[slate swan]

weird to see you here but hello

[maiden fable]

Hehe

[maiden fable]

Me who also has VSCode but don't self host bots: 😐

[slate swan]

so those this guy know whos he talking too👀

[vocal plover]

it's weird to see me here? lol

[maiden fable]

Lmao

[tiny ibex]

Actually no

[maiden fable]

Ah u. Didn't recognize u @tiny ibex

Sky Lover

[tiny ibex]

Yup

[maiden fable]

At least use heroku instead of replit

[tiny ibex]

I am using heroku sir

repl is ewww

[slate swan]

@tiny ibex alec is the creator of this tutorial https://vcokltfre.dev/

[brittle ingot]

Alec! Long time no see! Congratz on moving up!

[vocal plover]

Moving... up?

[slate swan]

hes the goat

[tiny ibex]

Oh!

[brittle ingot]

well helper 😄 and i thought project lead for a bit

[vocal plover]

why do i feel like im out of the loop on myself lol

[sage otter]

What is this correlation between vsc and self-hosting your bot. You write code in vsc, you don’t use it to selfhost a bot 🤔

You referring to the mirrored command prompt you get in vsc?

[brittle ingot]

i mean i don't use it to self-host but its certainly a free option if you want to use it like that.

[slate swan]

do you guys mean selfhosting as running your code yourself?

[brittle ingot]

yeah

[sage otter]

Yes

Running it on your local device

[brittle ingot]

you run it from the terminal in VSC.

[sage otter]

Yeah

[vocal plover]

selfhosting doesnt need to be a local device

[slate swan]

ok i was right

[sage otter]

But you can also run it from a regular un-mirrored terminal.

[brittle ingot]

yeahp

[slate swan]

wdym?

a separate terminal?

[tiny ibex]

Like a pi?

[sage otter]

:oogh: wot

No those are two different things

[vocal plover]

a pi can be used yes, but that doesnt have a relation to whats being replied to

[slate swan]

bro what

yeah

[brittle ingot]

vsc's terminal in prorgram is mirrored essentially its your regular terminal but inside the program. un mirrored would be your regular one im assuming?

[tiny ibex]

Didn't really understand what they meant

[vocal plover]

A better way of putting it I think would be that VSC has an integrated terminal, and the point being made is that it's fine to run it from a regular terminal, not just the integrated VSC terminal

[brittle ingot]

yeah thanks 😄

[tiny ibex]

Does that even matter -,-

[brittle ingot]

no

[vocal plover]

not really, but if you were going to put it on your PC then running it not in VSC would reduce memory usage by quite a lot

[brittle ingot]

really?

[vocal plover]

since VSC is essentially a chromium instance

[tiny ibex]

Oooooooooo

[brittle ingot]

oh wow

[slate swan]

wow thats cool

[tiny ibex]

I never used VSc terminal

[slate swan]

never new it was a thing

[brittle ingot]

|| i never use regular terminal || 😂

[vocal plover]

VSC (and discord, and slack, and insomnia, and a ton of other apps) is basically just a single tab chrome instance with extra steps

[tiny ibex]

I don't even know how it works

[brittle ingot]

the same as a regular terminal but inside the program

[tiny ibex]

:0

[tiny ibex]

Hmmm

[brittle ingot]

Its nice, cause you don't have to switch screens

[vocal plover]

what if you have 4 screens

[tiny ibex]

Hmmm

[slate swan]

me with 1 like:

[vocal plover]

I need them for the uh

oh god

29 terminal windows i currently have open

[tiny ibex]

Cool

[slate swan]

wtf

[vocal plover]

a very good question

[brittle ingot]

bruhh for what 😂

[slate swan]

why😭

[vocal plover]

calculator.

[slate swan]

your joking right

[vocal plover]

how i do maths:
ctrl + alt + t (opens a terminal) -> python3 -> type maths

[sage otter]

I mean it do be that way with electron apps

[vocal plover]

yup

[brittle ingot]

i think the most i ever have its like 2 if im running a bot in the background to test coding for my web server 🤷‍♂️

[slate swan]

my most i have is 1 cuz if i do 2 laptop go BOOM

[brittle ingot]

oop

[vocal plover]

i may have problems

[brittle ingot]

lmfao

[slate swan]

fun

[brittle ingot]

yea

its on the developer portal

[vocal plover]

go to the dev portal's oauth tab, there's a switch for it
