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

[boreal ravine]

hm weird

ah thats the issue, your missing a parenthesis 🤦‍♂️

[slate swan]

?

fuck

sorry im brain dead

[boreal ravine]

👍

[gloomy coral]

but it works the first 1 2 days

my code is open src, https://github.com/TechnoFrost27/chad-the-discord-bot/blob/main/cogs/tasks.py

i do hv tht

shows no error

[slate swan]

there a way to fix this?

[maiden fable]

code

[upbeat otter]

code

[visual island]

you're sending the get_prefix directly. Use Context.prefix for getting the prefix for the guild

[slate swan]

ok so i have a bot for a server i'm in and it's sole purpose is to be annoying (it's approved by the server owner)

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if "im" or "i'm" and "sad" in message.content.lower():
        await message.channel.send(f"{random.choice(okandgifs)}")
    await bot.process_commands(message)```
i want it to check if "i'm" or "im" are in a message, and if either of those are in a message check if it contains "sad"
if it contains "i'm" or "im" and also "sad" it's supposed to send a gif
how would i go about this? i just tried using "or" to check if "i'm" or "im" is in the message but that clearly didn't work
if i take out the "or" and just use one version of "i'm" it works though

[maiden fable]

Use brackets

[visual island]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[slate swan]

just plain and simple change the description to description=f'{ctx.prefix}ban...'?

Kayle you need to await that function

kayle and i are different people lol

[visual island]

you cant use it in description

[slate swan]

so would i do something like defprefix = ctx.prefix?

Oh , sorry

and then f'{defprefix}'?

[visual island]

um?

where will you define defprefix?

[slate swan]

probably before i mention it..?

is that a trick question or

[visual island]

no

[slate swan]

Yes

Why define a variable for it and not use directly tho?

[slate swan]

apperently i cant use it in description

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Any reasons for that?

[visual island]

so you will do like

@bot.command(description=f"{defprefix}ban...")
async def ban(ctx):
  defprefix = ctx.prefix
```?

[visual island]

you cant access ctx from decorator

[slate swan]

They meant the embed's description and not command's description

[slate swan]

.

[visual island]

oh

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def ban(ctx):
  eb = discord.Embed(title=f'', description=f'{ctx.prefix}ban', color=clr)
...```

[visual island]

yea you can do that

[slate swan]

  File "D:\acrella\bot.py", line 59, in get_prefix
    prefix = prefixes[str(message.guild.id)]
KeyError: '900421408402866257'``` KeyError is the server id, its happening because its not in the prefixes.json file, how can i make it so that if the server doesnt have a custom prefix defined in the json file than the prefix is the default `('^')`?
```py
def get_prefix(bot, message):
    if not message.guild:
        return commands.when_mentioned_or("^")(bot, message)
    else:
        with open("data/prefixes.json", "r") as f:
            prefixes = json.load(f)

        prefix = prefixes[str(message.guild.id)]
        return commands.when_mentioned_or(prefix)(bot, message)```this is what i have as of now

[gloomy coral]

guyssssssssss

[gloomy coral]

^

[visual island]

if prefixes.get(str(message.guild.id), None) is None:
  ...

[slate swan]

im guessing that this goes at the bottom?

[visual island]

like

if prefixes.get(str(message.guild.id), None) is None:
  prefix = "^"
else:
  prefix = prefixes[str(message.guild.id)]
return commands.when_mentioned_or(prefix)(bot, message)
```something like this

[visual island]

try moving your self.statusandfiles.start() to __init__ as on_ready could be dispatched multiple times. And see if it makes any difference

and by the way, you could replace this with len(self.bot.users) tho

        for guild in guilds:
            guild_count += 1
            for _ in guild.members:
                member_count += 1

[slate swan]

Can get we bot to. delete our command message after?

lets say:

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.delete

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

Deletes the message.

Your own messages could be deleted without any proper permissions. However to delete other people’s messages, you need the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission.

Changed in version 1.1: Added the new `delay` keyword-only parameter.

[slate swan]

so this deletes the user's message?

[boreal ravine]

yes, if you mean !ping or smth

[slate swan]

perfect thanks

[visual island]

you can use ctx.message for it

[slate swan]

?

How?

[vale wing]

Commands have ctx argument don't they

[sullen shoal]

Context.message returns the discord.Message instance of the message the command was invoked with

[vale wing]

@bot.command()
async def cmd(ctx):
    await ctx.message.delete()```

[gloomy coral]

ok hold on

[lament mesa]

Oh

[lament mesa]

Hmm

[vale wing]

I had same problem with changing voice chat name

I actually went to discord support and they said there were some issues with socket or smth

They sometimes happen for certain bots

[slate swan]

Pretty sure you don't need websockets to change voice channel names

It's a simple PATCH request to /channels/:id

[gloomy coral]

hmmm

[gloomy coral]

well thn wht shld i do

[gloomy coral]

aha no..... i hv tht too. Bot.user excludes bots and repeat members... i want len of all members of all guilds

member_count = 0
        for guild in guilds:
            for _ in guild.members:
                member_count += 1```

this wont slow down bot tht much right?

[visual island]

no but it isn't the most efficient way

[errant totem]

Hello I am currently making a bot about displaying my minecraft server's status

[visual island]

bot.users includes bots and to not repeat members you can set() it

[errant totem]

this is the code:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import requests



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

@client.command()
async def minecraft(ctx, arg):
    r = requests.get('https://aternos.org/server/' + arg + '?byName=true')
    json_data = r.json()

    description = json_data["server"]["motd"]
    online = str(json_data["server"]["online"])
    playerCount = str(json_data["server"]["playerCount"])

    embed = discord.Embed(
        title=arg + " Server Info",
        description='Description: ' + description + '\nOnline: ' + online + '\nPlayers: ' + playerCount,
        color=discord.Color.dark_green()
    )
    
    embed.set_thumbnail(url="https://i1.wp.com/www.craftycreations.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Grass-Block-e1566147655539.png?fit=500%2C500&ssl=1")

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[gloomy coral]

i have bot.users too

[errant totem]

It says there is no module named requests.

[gloomy coral]

how

[gloomy coral]

pip install requests```

basic py man cmon

See this is this is the difference rn

why does this happen everytime i restart my bot?

https://github.com/TechnoFrost27/chad-the-discord-bot/blob/main/cogs/events.py

[rocky mist]

is your bot verified?

[gloomy coral]

yes

i moved status update to init like u said

[visual island]

oh and add await self.bot.wait_until_ready() in the tasks.loop

[gloomy coral]

where?

at the very statrt?

ok ig this shld fix it

[vale wing]

@gloomy coral before the on_ready is called gateway already starts sending events and the code already starts accepting them

on_guild_remove receives test data I think

[gloomy coral]

ohh

[vale wing]

If your bot is written in cogs, just create a function with decorators

@yourLoop.before_loop
async def loop_waiter(self):
    await self.bot.wait_until_ready()```

[gloomy coral]

hmm

[vale wing]

You can put several decorators for one function if you have several loops

[gloomy coral]

or can i just do this

[vale wing]

Better do it in separated function

I don't think doing like you will cause performance issues, but it might slow loop down a bit

[boreal ravine]

camel cased functions

🚶‍♂️

[vale wing]

Anything wrong with them?

[slate swan]

You're not following the naming conventions

[vale wing]

It is up to you how to name them and I prefer camel case for loops

[slate swan]

It's not really "up to you"

you can do that , but that's not correct according to pep rules

[slate swan]

What happens if they dont vote for you, here and now?

[gloomy coral]

sad

[slate swan]

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#function-and-variable-names

[gloomy coral]

they cease to exist

ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.games' raised an error: ImportError: cannot import name 'create_option' from 'discord_slash.utils.manage_components' (/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/discord_slash/utils/manage_components.py)```

why?? it works everywhere else

[slate swan]

Im still alive and i didnt ping you on reply

[vale wing]

Does it do anything to code performance? No. It may only affect code reading. Such a pointless topic to argue about

[gloomy coral]

src code
https://github.com/TechnoFrost27/chad-the-discord-bot

[gloomy coral]

i ignore

[slate swan]

Lol

[slate swan]

That does not change any kind of performance , but just the clearity of your code

[vale wing]

As I said

[slate swan]

Use from discord_slash.utils.manage_commands import create_option instead of your import

Slash commands are not components

[vale wing]

And since loops in terms of style of code are usually used like classes are (someLoop.start() for example), I prefer naming them like classes but with lower camel case

[slate swan]

Wrong

[vale wing]

Doesn't matter

Why would you argue about it

[slate swan]

At least don't give misinformation

Just say nothing and get over it

[vale wing]

I never said they are classes lol

[slate swan]

Classes are named like : ClassName iirc

[vale wing]

Fine

[vale wing]

I know that

[gloomy coral]

ok

what is iirc

[slate swan]

If I remember correctly

[sullen shoal]

whats wrong with some_loop.start() tho

[vale wing]

Nothing?

Did I say there's anything wrong with it

[slate swan]

Just move on

[vale wing]

Yeah

[spark mortar]

how to DM user

[vale wing]

!d discord.User.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.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**.

[red sundial]

def batonPass(friends, time):
    # Write your code here
    
    array = []
    
    if friends > time:
        array.append(time-1)
        array.append(time)
    
    elif friends < time:
        array.append(time+1)
        array.append(time)
    ```

whats wrong whtis this code

[slate swan]

How is that related to discord bots

There's nothing wrong with the code , depends on what you want to do

[tropic briar]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
  await bot.handler.propagate(message)
  await bot.process_commands(message)
  muted = message.guild.get_role(912979586495684618)
  message_split = message.content.split(".")
  for message_word in message_split:
    for bad_word in Filter:
      if(bad_word == message_word.lower()):
        await message.delete()
        await message.author.add_roles(muted)
``` The bot is not deleting the message when the bad word is in between the message

[slate swan]

because you split words at every . ,
I never saw anyone typing like : this.is.a.bad.word

[tropic briar]

no if my message is like this
Hi bad_word hello
Then the bot is not deleting

[slate swan]

because you split words with .

[tropic briar]

It deltes when it is
bad_word

[tropic briar]

So how should change it

[slate swan]

How will "Hi bad_word hello" be equal to "bad_word"

Split it on basis of spaces

[tropic briar]

But there is a bad_word in the message

[tropic briar]

How?

[slate swan]

You ain't checking if it's in the message , you check if message is bad word

[tropic briar]

ohh

[slate swan]

Replace . With a space

[tropic briar]

and it should work fine?

Oh cool it works, Thanks

[slate swan]

try and see

Nice.

[tropic briar]

I also want to make a discord invite check How can I do that

I am thinking of adding https://discord.gg/ in a list

but I am splitting up the message

[velvet tinsel]

hello I'm back

[velvet tinsel]

wdym splitting it up

[tropic briar]

I am spliting up the message

[velvet tinsel]

like h t t p s?

[tropic briar]

like dividing message into parts where there is a space

if there is a space in the message but I thought to change that

[velvet tinsel]

change that to...what?

[tropic briar]

for bad_wor in invite:
    if(bad_wor == message.lower()):
      await message.delete()
      print(bad_wor)
      print(message.content)
  ``` I thought that this code will check if there is a invite in a message

[tropic briar]

The split thing, I removed it

[tropic briar]

but this is not working 😕

[velvet tinsel]

well you did if(bad_wor == mesage.lower()) which literally makes no sense

remove the brackets

[tropic briar]

the small brackets ?

[velvet tinsel]

no

[tropic briar]

around if?

[velvet tinsel]

yes

and add a space

[tropic briar]

for bad_wor in invite:
    if bad_wor == message.lower():
      await message.delete()
      print(bad_wor)
      print(message.content)

[velvet tinsel]

quite possibly, try it

and also can you give me the code for message?

[tropic briar]

lemme show you the whole function

[velvet tinsel]

and invite to make sure nothing is wrong with these as well?

[velvet tinsel]

👌

[tropic briar]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
  await bot.handler.propagate(message)
  await bot.process_commands(message)
  muted = message.guild.get_role(912979586495684618)
  message_split = message.content.split(" ")
  for message_word in message_split:
    for bad_word in Filter:
      if(bad_word == message_word.lower()):
        await message.delete()
        await message.author.add_roles(muted)

  for bad_wor in invite:
    if bad_wor == message.lower():
      await message.delete()
      print(bad_wor)
      print(message.content)
``` the first for loop is to check bad words

invite and Filter are 2 list

[velvet tinsel]

yeah remove the brackets around the first if as well

[tropic briar]

it is working fine

still remove them?

[velvet tinsel]

and where is invite declared?

[velvet tinsel]

yes, it looks ugly

[tropic briar]

invite = ['https://discord.gg']

[velvet tinsel]

and bad_wor?

[tropic briar]

for bad_wor in invite:
    if bad_wor == message.lower():
      await message.delete()
      print(bad_wor)
      print(message.content)

[velvet tinsel]

ohhhh

[tropic briar]

Look bad_wor after for

[velvet tinsel]

nevermind I forgot python for a sec, lemme think about this

is there any error message or has the bot suddenly stopped working?

[tropic briar]

no I think

[velvet tinsel]

so...the bot stopped working?

[tropic briar]

No it didn't

[velvet tinsel]

ahhh....

[tropic briar]

I get this Run time error but the bot didn't stop

[velvet tinsel]

try text = message.content

[tropic briar]

what is text?

[velvet tinsel]

and then if bad_wor == text.lower()

[velvet tinsel]

just declare any variable you like

make sure the value is message.content

[tropic briar]

yes let's test the bot again

[velvet tinsel]

ok, tell me if it works

does it work?

[tropic briar]

yes

[velvet tinsel]

it works?

[tropic briar]

It works but there is a problem

[velvet tinsel]

what's the problem?

[tropic briar]

50%

if I send https://discord.gg/ it deletes

but when I send a full server invite it doesn't

[rocky mist]

i cannot kick or ban

still

[velvet tinsel]

because message_word IS ALWAYS going to be bad_word

[tropic briar]

It also doesn't work when I put the link after some text

[velvet tinsel]

are you an Admin?

[rocky mist]

yes

ofc

[velvet tinsel]

^ look at the message above

[rocky mist]

wdym

[velvet tinsel]

did you pass all the required arguments?

[rocky mist]

yes

[velvet tinsel]

I was asking @tropic briar

[tropic briar]

what should I do

[rocky mist]

but cannot still

[jaunty terrace]

When trying to get the bots top role do i use
bot.user.top_role
or
bot.top_role

[rocky mist]

https://replit.com/@Anh-Khoi-Nguyen/test-bot

[tropic briar]

To solve the division problem 😭

[rocky mist]

idk why

[boreal ravine]

bot doesnt have permissions

[rocky mist]

already done

[velvet tinsel]

I was gonna say bot.kick

[velvet tinsel]

hmm...

[boreal ravine]

do you have an on message?

[velvet tinsel]

I have to go urgently I'll leave it to kayle

[tropic briar]

:bye:

[rocky mist]

wdym?

idk

im new

[jaunty terrace]

on_message event?

[ruby pulsar]

anyone pls say how to get rid of this error

[jaunty terrace]

its probably just a replit error

[ruby pulsar]

O

Thanks @jaunty terrace i am coding a snakes and ladder bot

ok any other probs i will come back Cya :3

[jaunty terrace]

admin just to ban? and do you have a on_message event?

[ruby pulsar]

helllo!

halo!

[boreal ravine]

What error

[ruby pulsar]

i am writeing everything in the main.py file and i am not createing any file or folder is it ok? @boreal ravine or @jaunty terrace or anyone say is it ok?

[boreal ravine]

1. Why wouldn't it be ok
2. you don't need to ping us, and my name is literally no ping

[ruby pulsar]

ok

do can i write everything in 1 file?

[jaunty terrace]

You can

Or you can use cogs

[ruby pulsar]

o

thanks vexify

[velvet tinsel]

Not related to discord

[velvet tinsel]

Ok, looking into it

[jaunty terrace]

if message.channel is vouch_channel:

@tropic briar that should work if im not wrong

[tropic briar]

yes

I made it work

[jaunty terrace]

I dont think vouch_channel returns an ID

[tropic briar]

      await message.author.add_roles(muted)

This is working, Thanks

[slate swan]

Every object on discord returns an ID (if it exists)

[slate swan]

Also you might need to remove https:// from the url since invite works even without them

[tropic briar]

oh yeh

advertise = bot.get_channel(893321334577303583)

      await message.author.add_roles(muted)
``` I want this code not to work in advertise channel but it is not working

The code is not working in any channel

[slate swan]

Why do you even need to get_channel and just use it's ID? Just do if message.channel.id != 123456...

[tropic briar]

anyways I made it work 😅

[tropic briar]

it's better to make a variable

[slate swan]

yes but you're getting the whole channel object from cache, which might lead to obvious errors related to caching

Like if the channel exists but is not cached, this will raise AttributeError

If you just need id of the channel and you already have it, you don't really need to have a complete channel object for it

[velvet tinsel]

Ayyy aman

[tropic briar]

It's working right now , let it work 😄

[visual island]

if you have guild intents enabled then it should be cached

[velvet tinsel]

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

[boreal ravine]

this channel is for discord bots

[velvet tinsel]

It is discord related

that's a part of a bot

[velvet tinsel]

Look at the last line

[tropic briar]

How can we detect mass ping in a single message

[boreal ravine]

yeah, a function what about it

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[velvet tinsel]

get_discord_ids

[boreal ravine]

yes

[distant flax]

howdy, anyone wanna explain to me if there is a way to apply async or multithreading to this ?? :>

[velvet tinsel]

async def

[boreal ravine]

What

[velvet tinsel]

I don’t really understand either

[boreal ravine]

😐

[velvet tinsel]

🤷‍♂️

[boreal ravine]

like I said, this isn't the place to ask this

[velvet tinsel]

🤷

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

btw

[tropic briar]

Something wrong

[velvet tinsel]

Yes

[keen lark]

i want to send 2 messages randomly

but how can i do one more

[velvet tinsel]

Random.choice

[keen lark]

oh thanks

[velvet tinsel]

!d random

[unkempt canyon]

random

Source code: Lib/random.py

This module implements pseudo-random number generators for various distributions.

For integers, there is uniform selection from a range. For sequences, there is uniform selection of a random element, a function to generate a random permutation of a list in-place, and a function for random sampling without replacement.

On the real line, there are functions to compute uniform, normal (Gaussian), lognormal, negative exponential, gamma, and beta distributions. For generating distributions of angles, the von Mises distribution is available.

Similar names: django.random

[boreal ravine]

!d random.choice you use this

[unkempt canyon]

random.choice

random.choice(seq)```
Return a random element from the non-empty sequence *seq*. If *seq* is empty, raises [`IndexError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#IndexError "IndexError").

Learn python

[jaunty terrace]

Just a question why don't u use .reply instead of mentioning them in the embed

[keen lark]

im learning ._.

learning + practicing

[velvet tinsel]

If you’re still learning you shouldn’t be doing discord bots

[jaunty terrace]

english?

[keen lark]

oof

[jaunty terrace]

practicing*

oh you spelled it right it looked weird

[keen lark]

lol

[velvet tinsel]

We don’t know unless you show us the problem lmao

[jaunty terrace]

do basic practice things like a test or a game

[slate swan]

Right, but just in case if api don't return any data due to some glitch or whatever, you should handle it too

[boreal ravine]

copied code

[wheat heart]

@velvet tinsel

why don't sending specify the reason?

[velvet tinsel]

[wheat heart]

idk

[velvet tinsel]

You all have to turn intents on

[wheat heart]

how

[boreal ravine]

!intents <=

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

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

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

THANK YOU KAYLE

[velvet tinsel]

!d intents

[unkempt canyon]

intents

[boreal ravine]

A tag already exists

[velvet tinsel]

Intents

Turning it on?

[boreal ravine]

I mean this already clears it out that they need to turn it on first if they even read what we give them

[velvet tinsel]

Ok but I don’t really trust the bot

It’s kinda hard to control it

[wheat heart]

i om writed this intents

[boreal ravine]

Control what

[velvet tinsel]

The bot

[wheat heart]

also

[velvet tinsel]

what

[boreal ravine]

Whats hard to control in the bot?

[velvet tinsel]

@unkempt canyon

[velvet tinsel]

Uh well the !d command

[boreal ravine]

Whats hard about it though

[wheat heart]

i have

[velvet tinsel]

Can’t find commands

[velvet tinsel]

And?

[wheat heart]

hoowww toooo 2 error

1 is specify the user

[velvet tinsel]

Show us the errors

[wheat heart]

2 is specify the reason

[velvet tinsel]

Ok

[boreal ravine]

You mean the objects in dpy?

[velvet tinsel]

Yes

[wheat heart]

@velvet tinsel

[boreal ravine]

Thats easy imo don't know whats hard about it 🤷‍♀️

[velvet tinsel]

Right let’s see

[velvet tinsel]

!d discord.Guild.name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.name

The guild name.

[velvet tinsel]

Well that works

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

class discord.Member```
Represents a Discord member to a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

This implements a lot of the functionality of [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

x == y Checks if two members are equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

x != y Checks if two members are not equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the member’s name with the discriminator.

[velvet tinsel]

What does *, do in your code?

Because that may be the error

And also disable the error handler

To see the error

@wheat heart

Am I doing it right kayle?

[boreal ravine]

!e

def command(*a):
  return a
print(command(1, 2, 3, 4, 5))
``` I don't really know what its called but I know you can use it and then pass in all the arguments after that into the parameter next t it

[unkempt canyon]

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

(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

[velvet tinsel]

No I meant the *, argument

@wheat heart disable the error handler to see the error

[maiden fable]

It means

!cmd Hi there bro

arg will be equal to Hi there bro

[velvet tinsel]

Ok, that may be the error

[boreal ravine]

there was no * argument

[velvet tinsel]

.

[maiden fable]

It's only like that in dpy, also that's known as a kwarg

[boreal ravine]

** ** yes

[velvet tinsel]

👌

[boreal ravine]

it's called a parameter

[velvet tinsel]

Ok

But still disable the error handler to see the error

?

@wheat heart hello?

[velvet tinsel]

😭

Winrar

What’s the best coding laptop

Ok

[velvet tinsel]

dontasktoask.com

[slate swan]

There is none

It depends what you want to code

If you want to code some bots you don't need a really performant laptop

Whereas if you want to code stuff w/ backend that requires you to run a server in background, you need something more performant

[boreal ravine]

I've heard of a gaming laptop, but never a coding laptop

[slate swan]

i have a laptop with 4gigs of ram , intel i3 , and its enuf to suffice my coding needs

[sullen shoal]

i would have been doing video editing and other cool stuff today if i had a good pc

[steep estuary]

how this bot is showing my time ? howw?

[slate swan]

its a timestamp

[full valley]

does get_user_info still work or has it been updated to something else

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed.timestamp

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.timestamp

The timestamp of the embed content. This is an aware datetime. If a naive datetime is passed, it is converted to an aware datetime with the local timezone.

[steep estuary]

no it is not in footer it is also in field

aaah!!

[slate swan]

thats a timestamp too

[steep estuary]

i tried that it is not showing correct time

[slate swan]

unix timestamps

[steep estuary]

ohk let me try once more

[slate swan]

get_user_info , may i know what object had that function?

[steep estuary]

how to use that timestamp ?

[slate swan]

gimme a sec

[steep estuary]

ok

[modern fiber]

Sup bud, haha.

DMs?

[slate swan]

you would need a timestamp int for that , which datetime objects have

these are the valid timestamp types

!e py from datetime import datetime print(int(datetime.now().timestamp()))

[unkempt canyon]

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

1637835641

[slate swan]

this is how you may get the timestamp

[slate swan]

all good

[steep estuary]

datetime.now().timestamp() ?

this will show the time of user ?

[slate swan]

that was an example , you need to use the timestamp function on your own datetime object

[boreal ravine]

Now that I think of it, a giveaway bot is really easy 🤔

[steep estuary]

so pls tell how they show the time of user?

[slate swan]

you dont need to show the time of the user

formatting it inside the unix timestamp will change it automatically

what does : <t:1637835641:T> show for you?

[steep estuary]

this

@slate swan

[slate swan]

eh , you from india?

[steep estuary]

yes

u also ? ur name is like that ?

[slate swan]

ic, it (the timestamp )would have appeared different if you were from some other region

[slate swan]

yea

[steep estuary]

different users can see this different ?

what is this ?

[slate swan]

its a unix timestamp

[steep estuary]

should i use datetime.now().timestamp() ?

[slate swan]

<t: the timestamp int : type of timestamp> is how it works

[slate swan]

.this a list of available time stamp types

[steep estuary]

type of timestamp ?

<t: the timestamp int : type of timestamp>

? what to fill inplace of that ?

[slate swan]

yes there are many
<t:1637835641:F> , <t:1637835641:R> , <t:1637835641:f>

[steep estuary]

can u pls show me a example

i mean how u r using it ?

ohh i can see hovering it

[slate swan]

for example if i have my timestamp int as 1637835641 , i can use
<t:1637835641:F> for <t:1637835641:F>

[steep estuary]

how u know the number ?

and whats F ? is there any docs ?

[slate swan]

i got it above from eval command

[steep estuary]

ohk

[slate swan]

literally sent that a minute ago , its the timestamp type

[steep estuary]

how this happened?

<t:1637835641:F> ?

ohh

😓

so how i can get the time of the user ?

[dusk pumice]

How to get role ids with discord.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.

[dusk pumice]

like this

[lament mesa]

", ".join(role.mention for role in member.roles[1:])

[dusk pumice]

only that code???

[steep estuary]

aaaa my bot users are using the bot

for giveaway can @slate swan u pls tell me

how to get the user's time ?

by that

[slate swan]

User's current time?

[steep estuary]

yes

<t:1637835641:F>

this is not correct time how to get user's time

[lament mesa]

make them input their timezone ig

[steep estuary]

?

[slate swan]

Don't think you can get user's timezone

[dusk pumice]

what is .join?

[steep estuary]

but other bots are doing

[sick talon]

this is different in different timezones

[lament mesa]

!d str.join

[unkempt canyon]

str.join

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

[sick talon]

change your local timezone and see it will change 🤷‍♂️

[slate swan]

They use guild region's timezone

[steep estuary]

but now we cannot get guild's region

that created a problem for me

[lament mesa]

just use utc time, the users will convert it to their local time

[steep estuary]

and i am finding new way :(

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.region

[steep estuary]

that is showing wrong time

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.region

The region the guild belongs on. There is a chance that the region will be a str if the value is not recognised by the enumerator.

[steep estuary]

not working now

[lament mesa]

what?

[steep estuary]

see here Region is showing deprecated

i am using ctx.guild.region here

[sick talon]

@steep estuary 🤷‍♂️ i changed my timezone and see this

[steep estuary]

?

[slate swan]

That's what I've been trying to explain for past 10 minutes

The Unix timestamps change according to the region

[steep estuary]

hmm

[sick talon]

it changed according to regions

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steep estuary]

but that is not showing correct time

[slate swan]

it's correct time , for that region

[sick talon]

yeah coz i changed my timezone from IST to other one

🤷‍♂️ it is different for different timezone

[steep estuary]

is that current time ?

[sick talon]

yeah

[steep estuary]

<t:1637835641:F>

???

my time is 4:15

it is showing 3:50 so confusing 😫

[sick talon]

🤦‍♂️

[steep estuary]

:/

[sick talon]

you have used the previous unix timestamp

[lament mesa]

thats the value of the timestamp you sent

[sick talon]

use the current unix timestamp

[steep estuary]

hmm

how i can get the number ? ?

[lament mesa]

datetime module

[steep estuary]

<t:what is the number ?:F>

[lament mesa]

time module

[sick talon]

^ @steep estuary

[velvet tinsel]

Yes

[steep estuary]

datetime.utcnow().timestamp() this ?

this will give me the number ?

[velvet tinsel]

No

[steep estuary]

<t:1637817485:F>

-_-

[velvet tinsel]

now = datetime.now()

[steep estuary]

then ?

[sick talon]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steep estuary]

how i will get the number ?

[sick talon]

using the datetime module

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steep estuary]

then ?

after that ? which code ?

datetime.now() ?

[lament mesa]

<t:1637837431:F>

[steep estuary]

this is correct

how u got this number ?

[lament mesa]

datetime module

[steep estuary]

but how by it ?

[valid perch]

datetime.datetime.now().timestamp()

[steep estuary]

i did that

[valid perch]

Then sub it into the correct format and send to discord for formatting

[steep estuary]

ohhh finally

i understood

i was doing datetime.utcnow().timestamp()

that was giving me wrong

[slate swan]

you need to use int() around it since it returns a float

[steep estuary]

how i can add timedelta on it ?

[steep estuary]

int(datetime.now().timestamp()) + dt.timedelta(seconds=int(seccs))
```this will work ?

[slate swan]

the + operator

[steep estuary]

??

[boreal ravine]

smh

[boreal ravine]

yes

try it and see 🤦‍♂️

[steep estuary]

not working

[boreal ravine]

Whats the error

[steep estuary]

it is showing that int object will not work with timedelta

[slate swan]

not icy but ok

[rotund nova]

an exception raised when the command got invoked

[prisma spoke]

what exception ?

[velvet tinsel]

your error

[boreal ravine]

the error is the exception 🤦‍♂️

[velvet tinsel]

It was a raised error 😂

[prisma spoke]

i used the ban cmd..and

[slate swan]

this reminds me of my dad

[lament mesa]

you have entered an invalid emoji id

[boreal ravine]

Missing permissions

[prisma spoke]

bot?

[visual island]

so which one exactly is your problem? There are 2 errors there

[boreal ravine]

yes, or it's trying to do something impossible

[rotund nova]

bot send commands double

[slate swan]

curious

[boreal ravine]

dream stan #ot0-psvm’s-eternal-disapproval

[prisma spoke]

the error is cuz i am banning the server owner.. ig but i have this line

        return await ctx.send("The member is either higher than you or same as the post of you in the role hierchy")``` which didnt get invoken

invoked

[prisma spoke]

urs

[slate swan]

I know how to solve your error just rerun the program

[prisma spoke]

out of the box answer..

[visual island]

you probably have 2 instances/scripts running paralelly

[boreal ravine]

ranger being funny

[slate swan]

@boreal ravine good afternoon

[boreal ravine]

isn't even afternoon here

[prisma spoke]

bre

[prisma spoke]

good evening

[prisma spoke]

good morning?

[slate swan]

who here is British

[velvet tinsel]

It is here

[boreal ravine]

!ot <= please

[unkempt canyon]

Off-topic channels

There are three off-topic channels:
• #ot2-never-nester’s-nightmare
• #ot1-perplexing-regexing
• #ot0-psvm’s-eternal-disapproval

Their names change randomly every 24 hours, but you can always find them under the OFF-TOPIC/GENERAL category in the channel list.

Please read our off-topic etiquette before participating in conversations.

[velvet tinsel]

I’m in Britain but not British

[slate swan]

mods don't ban I just want to know if any bot dev here is British

[velvet tinsel]

Me but not British

[visual island]

@slate swan can you stop posting random things?

[prisma spoke]

ctx.guild.name is correct?

[slate swan]

ok

[velvet tinsel]

Because you said afternoon and mentioned British, and I recognised the connection

[boreal ravine]

yes

[velvet tinsel]

There’s a reason why his name is “homoTROLLius”

[slate swan]

we do a miniscule amount of trolling

[boreal ravine]

bruh

smh

[velvet tinsel]

Please leave if you’re gonna troll

[orchid inlet]

anyone that has a good tutorial for discord music queue

Python

[velvet tinsel]

YouTube

🤷‍♂️

[orchid inlet]

I cant find any

[velvet tinsel]

Search it up then

It’s not that hard

[orchid inlet]

yes it is. I already have the coding for playing the song, its the commands for making a queue I need, and it aint that simple.

[boreal ravine]

Use an array?

[velvet tinsel]

I didn’t know anything about an economy bot and I learned it

[orchid inlet]

what is that?

[velvet tinsel]

Or a list

[boreal ravine]

🤦‍♂️

[boreal ravine]

An array is literally a list though

[velvet tinsel]

🤦

[velvet tinsel]

👌

[tawdry perch]

if I have a message object, how do I create a link to that message?

[orchid inlet]

array of what then

[velvet tinsel]

Message ID

[tawdry perch]

hm?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Message.jump_url

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.jump\_url

property jump_url: str```
Returns a URL that allows the client to jump to this message.

[velvet tinsel]

🤦‍♂️

[lament mesa]

there are small differences

[tawdry perch]

oh Thx

[boreal ravine]

"Small" I'm not trying to start an argument smh

[lament mesa]

!d array.array

[unkempt canyon]

array.array

class array.array(typecode[, initializer])```
A new array whose items are restricted by *typecode*, and initialized from the optional *initializer* value, which must be a list, a [bytes-like object](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-bytes-like-object), or iterable over elements of the appropriate type.

If given a list or string, the initializer is passed to the new array’s [`fromlist()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html#array.array.fromlist "array.array.fromlist"), [`frombytes()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html#array.array.frombytes "array.array.frombytes"), or [`fromunicode()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html#array.array.fromunicode "array.array.fromunicode") method (see below) to add initial items to the array. Otherwise, the iterable initializer is passed to the [`extend()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html#array.array.extend "array.array.extend") method.

Raises an [auditing event](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#auditing) `array.__new__` with arguments `typecode`, `initializer`.

[velvet tinsel]

!e

^^

[orchid inlet]

I dont understnad. Im new to coding

[velvet tinsel]

Find a python library that plays music

[lament mesa]

just use a normal list

[velvet tinsel]

If you’re new you’re not supposed to be doing discord bots

[tawdry perch]

eh so I do smth like ```py
url = message_object.jump_url()

[boreal ravine]

its a property

[lament mesa]

the array module is bearly used

[tawdry perch]

which means?

[orchid inlet]

I have coded html websites and then I wanted to move to some more advanced stuff, and discord bots is acutally a good start.

[velvet tinsel]

Learn python or else you’ll be asking a looottt of questions that any simple python coder can j

[slate swan]

no it isn't a good start lol

[orchid inlet]

where?

[velvet tinsel]

It’s not

[velvet tinsel]

See 😂

[orchid inlet]

what is a good start then

[slate swan]

simple projects

[velvet tinsel]

Basic python

[boreal ravine]

!e

class Message:
  @property
  def jump_url(self):
    return "jumped"
print(Message().jump_url)
``` no need to call it

[unkempt canyon]

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

jumped

[orchid inlet]

like?

[velvet tinsel]

Learn print at least

[velvet tinsel]

Lists, dictionaries, class, functions

[slate swan]

printing, data types, oop

[velvet tinsel]

f strings, variables

[tawdry perch]

and I don't need to await it?

[boreal ravine]

you dont need to learn about f-strings, those are the basics smh

[boreal ravine]

It isnt a coroutine, so no

[velvet tinsel]

Well he doesn’t know any basic stuff

[orchid inlet]

print(thislist)```

[velvet tinsel]

He jumped straight to bots

[tawdry perch]

thx alot, I'll try to figure out smth

[orchid inlet]

this is a list right?

[boreal ravine]

👍

[slate swan]

ye

[velvet tinsel]

Correct

Dictionaries?

[orchid inlet]

and what can I use that for exactly

[velvet tinsel]

🤦‍♂️

[slate swan]

to group multiple items together

[boreal ravine]

lots of things

[visual island]

image flipped

[orchid inlet]

but is a list only used for print commands

[boreal ravine]

technically it's discords fault, 👍 is usually above 👎 and not the other way around

[slate swan]

no

[orchid inlet]

okay

[velvet tinsel]

You can do a lot with lists

[slate swan]

do some simple projects, search on google for some ideas

you'll get the hang of it

[velvet tinsel]

If you really want to do discord bots, buy python crash course book, should get you up and going

DONT SKIP EVERYTHING READ EVERYTHING THROUGH OR YOU WONT UNDERSTAND

[orchid inlet]

okay. Im guessing that its a bad sign that I search EVERYTHING i do in python up on google

[velvet tinsel]

just a reminder

[velvet tinsel]

A bit

[orchid inlet]

kk

[velvet tinsel]

I search some stuff I don’t know

[boreal ravine]

Section/Part  | Importance rate in dpy (1-10)
---------------------------------------------
Variables | 10
Casting | 6 
Operators | 5 (not that important, but you'll still use it)
Arrays | 7 (very important)
How to import something | 6
Functions | 9 (the base of dpy & all modules)
What asyncio does | 6
Scopes | 6
Typehinting | 9 (a must for commands)
Decorators | 6 (a function inside a function)
Object Oriented Programming (OOP) | 10 (a must for creating command groups AKA cogs)
Subclassing/Inheritance | 7
---------------------------------------------
``` made this myself, it shows you whats important in dpy and what you should learn before using dpy

[orchid inlet]

Well. I dont know anything

as you can tell

[slate swan]

not really, even senior devs need to google shit up. googling is ok, just that you shouldn't be doing discord bots as a beginner

[orchid inlet]

what that for me?

[visual island]

variables should be 10

[velvet tinsel]

Yep.

[boreal ravine]

sure

[velvet tinsel]

11

😂

[orchid inlet]

okay, but like the only thing a know how to do is the print command

[boreal ravine]

what you should learn before diving into discord bots

[velvet tinsel]

Exactly

[slate swan]

go do a py course on udemy or youtube

[velvet tinsel]

Like me learning JavaScript OH OK ILL GO TO DISCORD JS

no

[boreal ravine]

personally think web tuto's are better (realpython etc)

[orchid inlet]

Did you write it in a code block just because you can or is there a reason?

[velvet tinsel]

Asyncio should be 7

or 8

[boreal ravine]

just because I can

[boreal ravine]

not that important

[tawdry perch]

what was correct way to fetch a message ```py
await fetch_message(id)
fetch_message(id)

[orchid inlet]

haha okay

[velvet tinsel]

Add dictionaries

[slate swan]

videos were easier for me to follow when I was a beginner

[velvet tinsel]

Add dictionaries

Pls

[orchid inlet]

so is discord bots what you guys are mainly coding?

[steep estuary]

how i can get timestamp of member.created_at ?

[tawdry perch]

fk

[velvet tinsel]

For me yes, but I’m also doing bot and AI

[steep estuary]

!d discord.Member.created_at

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.created\_at

property created_at```
Equivalent to [`User.created_at`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User.created_at "discord.User.created_at")

[boreal ravine]

I did though..?

Do you know what arrays are smh

[slate swan]

for me not really. I do Android and web app development mainly

[orchid inlet]

should I just copy it in to my vs code?

[boreal ravine]

eh, me too, but I used web tutorials for the hard parts (oop)

[orchid inlet]

games? or onyl apps?

[velvet tinsel]

Oh I’m blind

[boreal ravine]

i guess if you want

[slate swan]

apps

[orchid inlet]

kk

[velvet tinsel]

I once did a coding marathon of 5 hours

👌

[tawdry perch]

what is correct format for this? Do I need smth like ctx.guild... ```py
await fetch_message(msg.id)

[slate swan]

channel.fetch_message

[velvet tinsel]

Channel being ctx.channel?

[tawdry perch]

hmm

[slate swan]

can be any channel object

[velvet tinsel]

or ctx.guild.channel

[slate swan]

doesn't need a guild

[velvet tinsel]

👌

[slate swan]

afaik

[velvet tinsel]

Oh ok

[tawdry perch]

msg: discord.Message can I give a message link to this obj?

[velvet tinsel]

I dont really use channels a lot

[orchid inlet]

@boreal ravine what are the numbers for? how hard it is?

[tawdry perch]

or only ID?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.TextChannel.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.fetch\_message

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

Retrieves a single [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") from the destination.

[velvet tinsel]

I think so, but read the docs first

[boreal ravine]

the importance rate in dpy

[tawdry perch]

I alrd read that

[orchid inlet]

dpy?

[slate swan]

discord py

[velvet tinsel]

yeah, variable difficulty is like 0 or 1

[tawdry perch]

!d discord.Message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message

class discord.Message```
Represents a message from Discord.

x == y Checks if two messages are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the message’s hash.

[orchid inlet]

ahhhh

[steep estuary]

???

[slate swan]

an api wrapper for the discord api

[velvet tinsel]

What

[steep estuary]

how i can get timestamp of discord.Member.created_at ?

[orchid inlet]

@boreal ravine do I just search the words up on google, or is there like a good website or a dictonairy?

[slate swan]

googling works
