[tame marsh]

im normally doing it thorugh arguments

but here I need to get it through id

pls help

[sage otter]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_user

get_user(id, /)```
Returns a user with the given ID.

[tame marsh]

yes

[sage otter]

You referring to that?

[mystic grotto]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ebonaserag.lua

[tame marsh]

im gettting it from a RawReactionActionEvent

ill try it with that

thx

disnake.utils.get(bot.get_all_members(), id=payload.user_id)

like this it doesnt work

[boreal ravine]

i mean try it and see

[sage otter]

I don’t understand why people use it utils.get if they have an id

Iterating unnecessarily

[tame marsh]

yes

idk why i did it

[boreal ravine]

agreed, you should only use get() func to search for names in an iterable

[tame marsh]

or to get channels

[visual island]

you need a dict, not set on the $set one

[tame marsh]

from cache

[mystic grotto]

ohhh

so instead of $set i put what

[boreal ravine]

a dict

[mystic grotto]

thought so

[boreal ravine]

{'$set': {'key': value}}

[tame marsh]

the same with not using f strings xD

[tardy swallow]

ctx.message.author doesnt work in slash commands for some reason, how can I get the author then?

[boreal ravine]

what lib r u using

[tame marsh]

u have an interactionevent (probably)

[tame marsh]

^^

dislash or disnake probably

[boreal ravine]

but f strings are necessary to format them though?

[tame marsh]

its better then .format and "sth" + variable + "sth"

[boreal ravine]

of course it is

[tame marsh]

u dont use f strings?

[boreal ravine]

i never said that, what made you assume that?

[tame marsh]

but f strings are necessary to format them though?

[mystic grotto]

great news, i only get 2 errors now

[boreal ravine]

yeah, necessary meaning it needs to happen in some cases

[tame marsh]

👍

[tame marsh]

yes but its very rare

[boreal ravine]

!unbound

[boreal ravine]

you defined level before

[tame marsh]

😂 that command is working very good xD

[mystic grotto]

i did?

[boreal ravine]

use the global keyword on level

[boreal ravine]

yes

[visual island]

!botvar when

[unkempt canyon]

Python allows you to set custom attributes to most objects, like your bot! By storing things as attributes of the bot object, you can access them anywhere you access your bot. In the discord.py library, these custom attributes are commonly known as "bot variables" and can be a lifesaver if your bot is divided into many different files. An example on how to use custom attributes on your bot is shown below:

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
# Set an attribute on our bot
bot.test = "I am accessible everywhere!"

@bot.command()
async def get(ctx: commands.Context):
    """A command to get the current value of `test`."""
    # Send what the test attribute is currently set to
    await ctx.send(ctx.bot.test)

@bot.command()
async def setval(ctx: commands.Context, *, new_text: str):
    """A command to set a new value of `test`."""
    # Here we change the attribute to what was specified in new_text
    bot.test = new_text

This all applies to cogs as well! You can set attributes to self as you wish.

Be sure not to overwrite attributes discord.py uses, like cogs or users. Name your attributes carefully!

[boreal ravine]

bad.

[mystic grotto]

global level right

[boreal ravine]

yes

[visual island]

[velvet tinsel]

Hi icy

[tame marsh]

why do so many ppls use dpy

[velvet tinsel]

Because it’s good

[boreal ravine]

But really though, why make a bot variable when your only gonna be using the variable in a function and no where else? just useless imo

[tame marsh]

its good as base for a wrapper

[velvet tinsel]

I just like bots

[tame marsh]

e.g disnake is dpy in better

[tame marsh]

same

[visual island]

hi

[velvet tinsel]

in better 😭

[tame marsh]

yes

its a fork of dpy

[mystic grotto]

y am i getting syntax error

[tame marsh]

bruh

@client.command()
@has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def restart(ctx):
    if ctx.author.id == 315485035320836096:
        shutdown_embed = discord.Embed(title='Bot Update', description='I am now Restarting. See you later. BYE! :slight_smile:', color=0x8ee6dd)
        await ctx.channel.send(embed=shutdown_embed)
        await client.logout()
    else:
        errorperm_embed = discord.Embed(title='Access Denied!', description='This command is `OWNER` only. You are not allowed to use this. Try not to execute it another time.', color=0xFF0000)
        errorperm_embed.set_footer(text=ctx.author)
        await ctx.channel.send(embed=errorperm_embed, delete_after=10.0)```

like this it should work

[wanton veldt]

ty

[mystic grotto]

^

[tame marsh]

but why do u use client and not bot?

[mystic grotto]

also im new to this so it might be like the stupidest mistake lol

[tame marsh]

and shouldnt it be @commands.has_permissions()?

[tame marsh]

what are u trying to do?

[mystic grotto]

i did what kayle told me but its giviing me syntax error

[tame marsh]

+=1 is trying to add = to sth

and u dont use global like this

[mystic grotto]

oh

[boreal ravine]

put it where you use the operatorpy global level level += 5 or you could just define level in the function

[mystic grotto]

my brother told me to do that but i didnt listen to him smh

[visual island]

and why make it global when you're using it in a function and nowhere else

[tame marsh]

not level >= 5?

[visual island]

oops I havent replied

[visual island]

.

ok its not showing

bugged

[tame marsh]

or what is he trying to do

[boreal ravine]

i edited my message the moment you sent that

[boreal ravine]

no idea, im just copying his code

[tame marsh]

+= would try to add = to sth

i guess

[boreal ravine]

yes

[mystic grotto]

oops

[tame marsh]

what are u trying to do?

if it is bigger as 5?

[mystic grotto]

no

[tame marsh]

what else?

[mystic grotto]

im tryna add 1 to the current value of level

wait i could just do level= level + 1 right

[boreal ravine]

yes

[mystic grotto]

BRUH

[boreal ravine]

level += 1
``` easier

[tame marsh]

if level is a integer yes

[mystic grotto]

ye it is

[tame marsh]

that works?

[boreal ravine]

saves 5 characters

[boreal ravine]

of course

[tame marsh]

then sry @mystic grotto

my mistake

[mystic grotto]

nah nah its all cool

[visual island]

!e
a = 1
a += 1
print(a)

[unkempt canyon]

@visual island :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

2

[visual island]

would like to have ++ in python tho

[boreal ravine]

oo like in js

[visual island]

yeah

[mystic grotto]

and in cpp

[tame marsh]

or goto function

would be pretty usefull too

[boreal ravine]

lots of operators that even I don't know what it does

[tame marsh]

a discord mention is <@&id> lol

[boreal ravine]

i dont know the @ and | but I think | is for typing

[visual island]

whats ~

[tame marsh]

what the hell is >> or <<

[mystic grotto]

idk

[visual island]

bit shift

[tame marsh]

never used until yet xD

btw is there a pip freeze but only for the active project?

[boreal ravine]

no idea

u can do pip show module tho

[tame marsh]

lol

not found

oh wait

im stupid

[boreal ravine]

lmao

[tame marsh]

found it

[mystic grotto]

i dont get an error when i send a message

but i get an error when i do a command

[maiden fable]

[mystic grotto]

uhm

anyone

[maiden fable]

Hm?

[summer radish]

so i was following a tutorial but i get this error

[visual island]

it doesn't take any positional

use the name kwarg

[summer radish]

can someone help me

the guy who was doing the tutorial doesnt seem to get the error even though im pretty sure i didnt write anything different comparing his

[tame marsh]

can i do that with member too?

get_member doesnt exist

[sage otter]

!d discord.Guild.get_member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_member

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

[tame marsh]

guild.get

thx

[visual island]

try use .value attribute

[mystic grotto]

where

[visual island]

db[...].value

[summer radish]

alright lemme try

[visual island]

the first argument you passed

[mystic grotto]

ok

[summer radish]

Hi it worked, the bot responds now

but the thing is

the guy created a $new command that adds new responses to the database

so when i do the $new command, it gets added..thats working

the guy also created a del command that removes responses added by users in the database

when he runs the del command...the bot responds like this

[wanton veldt]

help? ```py
@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def restart(ctx, seconds:float):
await ctx.message.delete()
embed = Embed(title = "OFF", description = f"{ctx.message.author.mention} turned off me for {round(seconds)} seconds", color = Color.red())
await ctx.send(embed = embed)
await client.close()
sleep(seconds)
await client.connect()
embed = Embed(title = "Turned on", description = f"I came back after {round(seconds)}", color = Color.green())
await ctx.send(embed = embed)

i have all the perms

[summer radish]

he does $del 0

and bot responds

['command 1 added by user', 'command 2 added by user']

when i do the same thing, the bot just responds []

anyone help?

[mystic grotto]

how do i use kwarg

idk whatto do

[maiden fable]

!positional-keywords

[unkempt canyon]

Positional vs. Keyword arguments

Functions can take two different kinds of arguments. A positional argument is just the object itself. A keyword argument is a name assigned to an object.

Example

>>> print('Hello', 'world!', sep=', ')
Hello, world!

The first two strings 'Hello' and world!' are positional arguments.
The sep=', ' is a keyword argument.

Note
A keyword argument can be passed positionally in some cases.

def sum(a, b=1):
    return a + b

sum(1, b=5)
sum(1, 5) # same as above

Somtimes this is forced, in the case of the pow() function.

The reverse is also true:

>>> def foo(a, b):
...     print(a, b)
...
>>> foo(a=1, b=2)
1 2
>>> foo(b=1, a=2)
2 1

More info
• Keyword only arguments
• Positional only arguments
• !tags param-arg (Parameters vs. Arguments)

[summer radish]

his code

my code

[mystic grotto]

which hosting are you using?

[summer radish]

replit

[mystic grotto]

ok

[summer radish]

i get this error but he doesnt

[wanton veldt]

?

[pale palm]

Why do I get this error?

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Context' object has no attribute 'content'```
```py
# This is my code

@commands.command()
async def Annoucement(self, ctx: Context):
    print(ctx.content)```

[slate swan]

It says it in the error

[pale palm]

But on my second command it's work.

[slate swan]

Does it print?

[pale palm]

Yes.

[slate swan]

You can just do print(ctx) that would work iirc

[visual island]

how did you invoke the command?

[visual island]

ctx.message.content

[wanton veldt]

.restart
if that's what you mean

[pale palm]

@visual island @slate swan Thanks, and sorry for ping.

[slate swan]

You didnt add the positional arg

[visual island]

yes, you need to do .restart 10 for example

[slate swan]

^

[wanton veldt]

oh ok

[slate swan]

In this case it should be a float

[visual island]

[tawdry perch]

I have always used manual loading of cogs, but now I'm having way too many of them to load (everytime when I make one I have to add it to list and it is becoming unreadable) so how could I implement the loop thing

it would be helpful so I can restructure my files again

[visual island]

!d os.listdir

[unkempt canyon]

os.listdir

os.listdir(path='.')```
Return a list containing the names of the entries in the directory given by *path*. The list is in arbitrary order, and does not include the special entries `'.'` and `'..'` even if they are present in the directory. If a file is removed from or added to the directory during the call of this function, whether a name for that file be included is unspecified.

*path* may be a [path-like object](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-path-like-object). If *path* is of type `bytes` (directly or indirectly through the [`PathLike`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.PathLike "os.PathLike") interface), the filenames returned will also be of type `bytes`; in all other circumstances, they will be of type `str`.

This function can also support [specifying a file descriptor](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#path-fd); the file descriptor must refer to a directory.

Raises an [auditing event](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#auditing) `os.listdir` with argument `path`.

[maiden fable]

Wait, I thought u already used os.listdir Nipa

[tawdry perch]

so smth like this I would assume ```py
for filename in os.listdir('cogs_folder_or_smth'):
if filename.endswith('.py'):
#load the extension somehow

[maiden fable]

Yea

[tawdry perch]

never have I ever used it, except once

what if I have like really many of folders?

Do I just need a multiple one of those loops

[maiden fable]

No

[tawdry perch]

it will search inner folders as well?

[maiden fable]

yea

bot.load_extension(dir.filename[:-3]) after that

[tawdry perch]

dir = ?

├───cogs
│   ├───moderation
│   │   └───__pycache__
│   ├───other
│   │   ├───antimusicbot
│   │   └───__pycache__
│   └───__pycache__
``` if I have structure like this? (antimusicbot cog kicks music bots from guild because why not)

[maiden fable]

okay

Then cogs.other will be the directory

[visual island]

I dont think it will loop through the inner files

[tawdry perch]

so I have to make a loop for moderation folder and for the other folder?

[visual island]

yeah, nested loops

!d os.walk this one seems promising

[unkempt canyon]

os.walk

os.walk(top, topdown=True, onerror=None, followlinks=False)```
Generate the file names in a directory tree by walking the tree either top-down or bottom-up. For each directory in the tree rooted at directory *top* (including *top* itself), it yields a 3-tuple `(dirpath, dirnames, filenames)`.

[tawdry perch]

ext = []
for filename in os.listdir('cogs_folder_or_smth'):
    if filename.endswith('.py'):
        ext.append("the files")

for filename in os.listdir('2_cogs_folder_or_smth'):
    if filename.endswith('.py'):
        ext.append("the files")

bot.load_extension(ext)
``` I was thinking of smth like that if this makes sense

would this make sense, for me it does.

[visual island]

what's the use of the second loop?

[tawdry perch]

I suck at nested loops, well actually in everything that is nested

for filename in os.listdir('cogs_folder_or_smth'):
    if filename.endswith('.py'):
        ext.append("the files")
    for filename in os.listdir('2_cogs_folder_or_smth'):
        if filename.endswith('.py'):
            ext.append("the files")
``` might be like this if nested?

[visual island]

for folder in os.listdir("cogs"):
    for sub_filename in os.listdir(f"cogs/{folder}"):
         ... 

[visual island]

yeah sure

[tawdry perch]

good to know

Let me try to make it smh

[visual island]

but in the ext you need to append as "cogs.subfolder.filename" not just the filename

[tawdry perch]

yep

I will do MyBot.cogs.folder.filename
^ is a module so I ennsure it goes loaded

aand it fked up...

[tough lance]

Rip

[visual island]

random is a command

rename it

[tawdry perch]

what is __path__ supposed to be? https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wejepifafe.sql

[tough lance]

There is command named random in that file

[unkempt jewel]

i dont have any command named random

[sage otter]

You're using nekos.py(sync) and requests. Yikes.

[slate swan]

[tough lance]

Lol

[upbeat otter]

whats the issue?

[tawdry perch]

Do I have to create a __path__ var or smth?

[obsidian ledge]

how to i make a command that checks how many people have a certain role then puts it in a embed?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Role.members

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role.members

property members: List[Member]```
Returns all the members with this role.

[maiden fable]

U didn't import random

[slate swan]

!d clear

[maiden fable]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own. The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[tawdry perch]

Is the path a variable or smth

[tawdry perch]

You are not supposed to call a role object

[lethal moat]

then how do i get the @ everyone role in that server? i need to set permissions for that channel

[vocal magnet]

The everyone role uses the guild ID as the role ID

also ctx.guild.default_role()

ctx.guild.default_role is an attribute, not a function

So don't put the () on the end

[lethal moat]

ahk

is there a way i can grab a specific role by its name/id?

[sage otter]

For name you can use utils.get()

By ID it’s recommended you use Guild.get_role()

your bot probably doesnt have the appropriate permissions then @full valley

[full valley]

Thats weird

[slate swan]

What are you doing exactly?

Nothing

just trying to use my bot

each command returns that

[slate swan]

Your doing something thats returning the error

[slate swan]

is it possible for discord bots to stream videos in vc channels?

[sage otter]

Btw. Saying something doesn’t work doesn’t help anyone, not even yourself. Instead of just saying "it doesn’t work" or "why does this not work" it’s preferable you post code, errors(if any), what you expect your code to do, and overall intentions.

[shut mango]

any idea why is it not working?

[sage otter]

No

[slate swan]

Why is your commands name embed lol

[shut mango]

so i can do !embed

and it sends the embed

[sage otter]

Refer to what I said literally one message before this one.

[shut mango]

oh

i didnt see

it has an error

and what im trying to do is

when i say !embed it sends embed

[sage otter]

that’s a warning. not an error. That’s just bad naming conventions.

Your functions name is embed

[upbeat otter]

discord.Color.blue()

[slate swan]

I think it doesnt matter its a alias

[sage otter]

Your functions name is embed and variable is called embed inside.

[upbeat otter]

uh okay........

[placid meadow]

Its says colour

[slate swan]

You can use color or colour its the same thing

[placid meadow]

Its suppose to be Color*

[slate swan]

Ah i see my bad

[placid meadow]

Try it its always better i think

[sage otter]

Those are aliases

[sage otter]

It’s literally not. Danny made them synonymous with each other

[slate swan]

Yeah the color kwarg takes both aliases

[placid meadow]

His embed set name is missing a )

He didnt close it

Thats why

[sage otter]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.Colour for more info on that.

[shut mango]

oh

[upbeat otter]

wasnt required, but okay ,-,

[placid meadow]

.

[placid meadow]

@shut mango

[sage otter]

I mean

[shut mango]

you mean there?

[sage otter]

Add parenthesis after blue

[placid meadow]

Noo

[sage otter]

Yes

Read the docs

[slate swan]

Yeah i think its needed

[shut mango]

thank you

[placid meadow]

There

[shut mango]

it worked

[shut mango]

Ok

Hello random person

[tawdry perch]

wdym?

that's maybe where the message was sent?

[sage otter]

improper logic

use or you can check if the id is in a list.

[velvet tinsel]

Lojeck

[maiden fable]

!or-gotcha

[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.")

im trying to make 8ball command in embed but it doesnt work

the only errors

[dense depot]

its this code causing the issue embed.add_field(name="Question", value='', inline=False)

it needs to have a value

[lament mesa]

You could give an empty Unicode for the value of the field

[slate swan]

the value cant be ""

[lament mesa]

\u200b should work iirc

[dense depot]

Is there anyway of accessing a function within a cog file in my main file?

[maiden fable]

Uhhhhhh u should be able to import the cog class but I don't think anyone does that, since, uhhh, that can cause errors

[boreal ravine]

sure

[placid meadow]

I need help , i want a command that i can do example !blacklist ‘id’ and the person wont be able to use the bot anymore , how can that be possible?

[boreal ravine]

Thank you!

[slate swan]

How would I get the webhook url using the name>?

[sick veldt]

name?

[slate swan]

Yes the name of the webhook

[maiden fable]

!d discord.TextChannel.webhooks

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.webhooks

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

Gets the list of webhooks from this channel.

Requires [`manage_webhooks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_webhooks "discord.Permissions.manage_webhooks") permissions.

[slate swan]

Or the webhook in the channel where the command is used

[maiden fable]

Use utils.find or utils.get

[slate swan]

and how would I use that

[maiden fable]

!d discord.utils.get

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.get

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

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

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

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

Examples

Basic usage...

[maiden fable]

discord.utils.get(webhooks, name=name)

[slate swan]

can anyone help

im trying to make a mute command and it keeps on saying "unindent does not match any outer indentation level"

ive tried to make it all correct but it still highlights the end of a bracket and says that

.

[maiden fable]

there is extra space in the if line

See?

@slate swan

[slate swan]

thankyou so much

it was just that simple mistake

[maiden fable]

Yea

[winged arch]

Hi all, i've been working on a simple template for a discord bot and would like feedback if thats appropriate. The bot works (Again, super simple - just connects and displays presence). The purpose is to be a template to use to build other bots, and im looking for overall feedback regarding the instructions, readability, and ofcourse correctness 🙂 if anyone wants to check it out to provide me any criticism, it can be found here - https://github.com/Chasewb91/slatebot

[simple gulch]

I'm trying to implement this into my discord bot to give a shortened url to my users, but not sure how to do that.

--header 'Authorization: Bearer YOURAPIKEY' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "url": "https:\/\/google.com",
    "custom": "google",
    "password": "mypass",
    "expiry": "2020-11-11 12:00:00",
    "type": "splash",
    "geotarget": [
        {
            "location": "Canada",
            "link": "https:\/\/google.ca"
        },
        {
            "location": "United States",
            "link": "https:\/\/google.us"
        }
    ],
    "devicetarget": [
        {
            "device": "iPhone",
            "link": "https:\/\/google.com"
        },
        {
            "device": "Android",
            "link": "https:\/\/google.com"
        }
    ],
    "parameters": [
        {
            "name": "aff",
            "value": "3"
        },
        {
            "device": "gtm_source",
            "link": "api"
        }
    ]
}'```

[sage otter]

Don’t change presence in on_ready()

Do it in your Bot constructor.

[simple gulch]

any ideas on this?

[winged arch]

TY! i'll take a look.

[spring flax]

can i clone a role

[maiden fable]

!d copy

[unkempt canyon]

copy

Source code: Lib/copy.py

Assignment statements in Python do not copy objects, they create bindings between a target and an object. For collections that are mutable or contain mutable items, a copy is sometimes needed so one can change one copy without changing the other. This module provides generic shallow and deep copy operations (explained below).

Interface summary:

Similar names: psycopg2.copy, numpy.term.copy

[maiden fable]

Use this ig?

!d copy.copy

[unkempt canyon]

copy.copy

copy.copy(x)```
Return a shallow copy of *x*.

[maiden fable]

or uhhh this

[slate swan]

missed self

[quartz badger]

does anyone know how to solve it?

[quartz badger]

oh

[quartz badger]

but, where does it say coin or base? like: self.coin?

srry for my bad english

[slate swan]

async def binance(self, *args)

[slate swan]

functions in classes always take self as the first parameter

before ctx

self, ctx, coin, base

[quartz badger]

solved, thank you

[slate swan]

u're welcome

[quartz badger]

I know, but I always end up either forgetting or not even noticing that it is missing xD

[tiny ibex]

Ok so my bot changes files while running and it's hosted on heroku with github linked but whenever I make a change in the code the files which were generated get deleted. How can I prevent this

[slate swan]

heroku doesn't allow you that

[tiny ibex]

So what should I do?

[slate swan]

don't use heroku?....

[tiny ibex]

So use repl?

[slate swan]

no

[tiny ibex]

So?

[slate swan]

!vps

man

#discord-bots message

[tiny ibex]

I am poor

I don't have one😭😭

[slate swan]

sad stuff

[winged arch]

Im struggling here, how would that be formatted? All documentation i found online shows presence changed in on_ready, im not sure how else to make it happen.

[sage otter]

The documentation your finding is trash. Discord will disconnect your bot multiple times during its process's lifetime. Causing on_ready to fire multiple times.

i have a question how to make xp showin in the rank command cuz i dont know but i need to addd for my leveling system

sameone knows how to make it?

    'Content-Type': 'application/json',

response = requests.get('https://short.snowmanking.com/api/account', headers=headers)

but I get this error. 
```Traceback (most recent call last):

Why?

[sage otter]

error.missing_perms

[rare saddle]

Is it possible to somehow display them without square brackets?

[manic wing]

!json

[unkempt canyon]

When using JSON, you might run into the following error:

JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

This error could have appeared because you just created the JSON file and there is nothing in it at the moment.

Whilst having empty data is no problem, the file itself may never be completely empty.

You most likely wanted to structure your JSON as a dictionary. To do this, edit your empty JSON file so that it instead contains {}.

Different data types are also supported. If you wish to read more on these, please refer to this article.

[sage otter]

!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.

[slate swan]

i mean when sameone types +rank it need shows current rank of user and exp what he gots and he needs to get to another level

but i dont know how to make it

[rare saddle]

so?

[winged arch]

@sage otter Thank you again, I believe i have it cleaned up now ```python

import discord #imports discord.py module, allowing use of their API.
import os #for loading discord token from .env file
from discord.ext import commands, tasks
from dotenv import load_dotenv #for loading dsicord token from .env file

load_dotenv()
token=os.getenv('discord_token') #pulls the discord token from a .env file --

For the bot to launch with this set up, you must have a .env file with the following, excluding quotations "discord_token=DiscordBotTokenGoesHere"

intents = discord.Intents.default() #sets default permissions

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

discord.Game("Scrabble")

@client.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.channel.send("pong")

client.run(token) ```

[slate swan]

pls sameone

[winged arch]

actually not quite, but i feel like im getting closer lol.

[sage otter]

no

[rare saddle]

Can you show how it is correct?

[sage otter]

for your case you could do like. ', '.join(error.missing_perms)

[rare saddle]

thanks you

[simple gulch]

So what am I doing wrong?
This is the curl code that the website provides to interact with their api.

--header 'Authorization: Bearer tnWzwdnpnaRCkOoW
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ ```
```curl --location --request GET 'https://short.snowmanking.com/api/account' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer tnWzwdnpnaRCkOoW' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \```
So I converted it to Requests like this
```import requests

headers = {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer tnWzwdnpnaRCkOoW',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}
response = requests.post('https://short.snowmanking.com/api/url/add', headers=headers)

response = requests.get('https://short.snowmanking.com/api/account', headers=headers)
print(response.json())```
What am I doing wrong?

[slate swan]

i have a question how to make xp showin in the rank command i mean when sameone types +rank it need shows current rank of user and exp what he gots and he needs to get to another level but i dont know how to make it

how do you make a prefix for a server, i have made the command to set it but im not sure at how to make the prefix just for the guild

how to take the content of the author's message in the command?

[slate swan]

plsease

[manic wing]

in the get_prefix you would check if the guild id is x, and if it is x you return the guilds prefix. where x is an id.

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

[slate swan]

here u are

i did this

so far @manic wing

[rare saddle]

How can you get an invalid license in another language?

[spring flax]

or what?

[slate swan]

ey @manic wing i sent a my code

[maiden fable]

copy.copy()

[spring flax]

sure that'd work?

[maiden fable]

Yea it should

[spring flax]

so what do i do exactly now lol

[tawdry perch]

what is __path__ supposed to be, I'm trying to make cog loader? Traceback: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wejepifafe.sql

[maiden fable]

copy.copy(role) should work

[simple gulch]

So I had a 503 error was the issue. Now I have a 200 response. But still not sure how to get the data from it? It says it should respond something like

    "error": 0,
    "data": {
        "id": 1,
        "email": "[e-mail]",
        "username": "sampleuser",
        "avatar": "https:\/\/domain.com\/content\/avatar.png",
        "status": "pro",
        "expires": "2022-11-15 15:00:00",
        "registered": "2020-11-10 18:01:43"
    }
}```

but I'm not sure what to do request.?

[tawdry perch]

Is it supposed to be a variable or smth?

[manic wing]

did it respond like this?

[simple gulch]

no. I printed response by itself and it gave a 200 response.

but not sure where to go from there.

[tawdry perch]

response.json to get that sort of format

[simple gulch]

I tried response.json and it says there isn't anything?

[manic wing]

i thought 200 was an okay

[tawdry perch]

It is

[manic wing]

print(response.text)

[simple gulch]

Oh wait gives this
<bound method Response.json of <Response [200]>>

not sure what I typed instead of json last time

[tawdry perch]

try ```py
a = response.json
print(a)

[manic wing]

it would be response.json()

and then you can dict index to it like a normal dict

[simple gulch]

That looks more like it 🙂
{'error': 0, 'data': {'id': 3, 'email': 'email', 'username': 'AnswerBot2', 'avatar': 'https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/6ce01b5db930169803c380739e24e7e8?s=64&d=identicon', 'status': 'free', 'expires': None, 'registered': '2021-12-08 17:38:38'}}
so how would I grab one of those json parts?

[peak loom]

It gives no errors, but it doesn't work.. Here is the code.

• Use a comma-separated list of `key: value` pairs within braces: `{'jack': 4098, 'sjoerd': 4127}` or `{4098: 'jack', 4127: 'sjoerd'}`

• Use a dict comprehension: `{}`, `{x: x ** 2 for x in range(10)}`

• Use the type constructor: `dict()`, `dict([('foo', 100), ('bar', 200)])`, `dict(foo=100, bar=200)`

[slate swan]

how do you check if there is more after a mention

[peak loom]

That's bulls*****it

[simple gulch]

any ideas?

[sage otter]

If get_user() returns None that means that user isn’t on cache

Alternatively use fetch_user()

[slate swan]

You should always close the cursor(s) after you used the data

[warm goblet]

newone = '111 - 222'
newone = my_string.partition("- ")[2]

Output : 222

How do I get the output to be 111?

[cloud dawn]

No?

[slate swan]

Yes.

[cloud dawn]

Cursor is basically the connection, yeah if it not used for half an hour close it but else it's best to let it stay open.

[slate swan]

No

Cursor is not the same as a connection.

When you are done using the cursor, close it. Simple rule.

If you don't agree, search it up and everyone else does agree.

[cloud dawn]

Your right mb, i don't use cursors anyways lol

[kindred epoch]

[frozen ferry]

Hey everyone, does anyone know a good place to learn the python discord library? I'm kinda stuck with just the official documentation.

[dapper cobalt]

I've made a few examples. However, it's using a fork called disnake. You can check it out. https://github.com/ScopesCodez/disnake-examples

[sick birch]

The GitHub examples are an excellent place to learn

I also had some fun looking at RoboDanny’s source code (discord bot made by the creator of discord.py)

[frozen ferry]

Thanks a lot for the advice, guys < 3

[slate swan]

how do you do redirect_uri in OAuth

[untold token]

There are better ones imo

The disnake repository has ones that are good too

[dapper cobalt]

I didn't say mine are the best.

[untold token]

and there is a WIP guide

[untold token]

You can make it better though

Like type hintings, docstrings etc etc

[slate swan]

I am trying to make a command that changes the prefix of the bot but I am really struggling. How do I replace something in json, this is what I have so far.

    @commands.command()
    async def prefix(self,ctx,prefix):

        with open('config.json') as f:
            data = json.load(f)
    
        valid_user = False

        for role_id in data["staff-roles"]:
            try:
                if ctx.guild.get_role(role_id) in ctx.author.roles:
                    valid_user = True
            except:
                pass
    
        if valid_user or ctx.author.guild_permissions.administrator:
            with open('config.json') as f:
                data = json.load(f)
```json file:
```json
{"staff-roles": [], "prefix": ".", "verified-roles": []}

[brave vessel]

Do you want to also rewrite the JSON file?

!e
JSONs in Python are parsed into a 'dictionary'
With those you can change key/value pairs, so say we have the dictionary:

my_dict = {"staff-roles": [], "prefix": ".", "verified-roles": []}
# to change prefix to ','
my_dict["prefix"] = ","

print(my_dict)

[unkempt canyon]

@brave vessel :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

{'staff-roles': [], 'prefix': ',', 'verified-roles': []}

[brave vessel]

Then, you can just rewrite the file

[slate swan]

def get_prefix(bot,message):
    try:
        db = sqlite3.connect("Config.db")
        cursor = db.cursor()
        x = cursor.execute(f"SELECT prefix FROM config WHERE guild_id = {message.guild.id}")
        a = x.fetchone()
        if a == None:
            return
            commands.when_mentioned_or("n!")(bot,message)
        else:
            return commands.when_mentioned_or(a[0],"n!")(bot,message)```

when you @ the bot and use a command it sends the command twice

[brave vessel]

I think that's not a problem with the code itself, you might be running two instances of your program at once, so it sends twice

[slate swan]

Well first things first, don't always connect to the database.

As for every message you make a new connection and new query, which is pretty bad.

[slate swan]

im not

[slate swan]

ah would that fix the double command though

Don't think so, but at least latency and other issues you will face in the future.

[brave vessel]

You might think you're not, but that's happened to me before too. I think usually it's solved with just completely shutting down the program with whatever you're running it on and then restarting it

[slate swan]

yeah ig

[slate swan]

just done that

[brave vessel]

ah

[slate swan]

its quite weird

[royal jasper]

hey! i need to check if user has role... How can i do it?

[brave vessel]

What would be the context of checking if the user has a role? Would it just be making sure that only people with the role are running the command or something else?

[royal jasper]

just check like this: if user.has_role(role): pass

[brave vessel]

If it's the latter, something like:

role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name="Role name goes here")
# if you know the member you want to check the role from
if role in member.roles:
  # code goes here

[royal jasper]

ty dude

[brave vessel]

np :D

[slate swan]

@brave vessel do you have a idea on why it comeds back 2 times?

[pale turtle]

Why not use it's id?

[brave vessel]

Not sure honestly, my earlier guess would be my only one

[brave vessel]

for getting the role?

[pale turtle]

Yeah?

[slate swan]

damn

[brave vessel]

Ah, you could do that, I'm mostly used to the name kwarg though

it'll probably save some time though

[pale turtle]

I mean using guild.get_role

[royal jasper]

an error appears

[brave vessel]

That's because member needs to be defined as the user you want to check has the roles

you could just replace member with user if you already defined uesr

[royal jasper]

but i don't wanna it

i want to the member type !config and then the bot gives a role

[brave vessel]

wdym?

[pale turtle]

So ctx.author?

[brave vessel]

Ah, I mean you could, but would that work cross-server? Like I know quite a few bots auto-create a Muted role I think and check for that role via a name because the ID won't be consistent cross-server

This is a genuine question btw, not sure

oh does guild.get_role support the name of the role?

guessing not actually

[royal jasper]

yes but the dpy dont recognizes ctx.author as a discord.member

[pale turtle]

If it is done in a server, why won't it?

[brave vessel]

^ it will

[slate swan]

sends 2x

[brave vessel]

ohh, the colors of the embed are different, are you running something twice internally?

[pale turtle]

Oh I thought he wanted to do only from one server

My bad

[brave vessel]

Oh wait maybe, then an ID will be better, just decided to use the name kwarg because it's a safer bet

[slate swan]

uhhh hold on

[brave vessel]

no worries! your suggestion is better than mine with one server only

[slate swan]

@brave vessel no i forgot its random

[brave vessel]

ah

[slate swan]

this is a different command

[pale turtle]

Try to shut down your bot and re-run

[slate swan]

have done, ill swap token rq

[pale turtle]

The best way I use is to reset the token

[slate swan]

its still happening

[pale turtle]

Mmm

Weird

[slate swan]

yeah very

[pale turtle]

Maybe you are running it from multiple instances by accident?

[slate swan]

nope

tried that

its really annoiyng

[slate swan]

wym

[velvet tinsel]

What’s get_prefix

[slate swan]

the function

[velvet tinsel]

Is it an alias?

Alr

[slate swan]

the top bit

[pale turtle]

You both talk about different things, @slate swan he wanted you to send the prefix command

[velvet tinsel]

yes

[slate swan]

wdym the get_prefix part?

OHH

[pale turtle]

No, the command itself

[velvet tinsel]

Your function was get_prefix

[slate swan]

bet but it happens on all commands

[velvet tinsel]

The command was prefix

[slate swan]

happens on all commands tho

[pale turtle]

Yeah that's why I doubted it was with the command itself

[velvet tinsel]

Is it in every single command?

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

yep 99% let me check

[velvet tinsel]

Ok

Oh no db

Show db?

[slate swan]

yes every cmd

[slate swan]

how?

[velvet tinsel]

errrr

I know nothing about databases

Never really learned them

[slate swan]

ah

[pale turtle]

Try to use a print statement in the command

Wait nvm it doesn't matter really

Oh wait

You are using cogs right?

[slate swan]

yeah

[pale turtle]

You use on_message?

For cog listener

[slate swan]

yeah and process

[slate swan]

ye

[pale turtle]

Inside the cog?

[velvet tinsel]

subprocess?

[pale turtle]

Not good, listeners don't need it

[slate swan]

not that cog but in a cog

[velvet tinsel]

😭

[slate swan]

uh

[pale turtle]

[velvet tinsel]

Why are the colors different

Just wondering

[slate swan]

random

[pale turtle]

See, delete the line b4 return

You only need it in on_message event

Not listener

[slate swan]

Wym

process_commands?

[pale turtle]

Delete await self.bot.process_commands(msg)

okay

i started with youtube tutorials tbh

[velvet tinsel]

There are some Google resources (my attempt to make this sound as nice as possible)

I don’t do discord nowadays

[pale turtle]

!resources will help you understand Python basics and everything you need for discord.py. Than I would suggest looking at discord.py documentation, GitHub code examples, and this tutorial: https://vcokltfre.dev
NOTE: discord.py is an advanced lib, envolving advanced Python and complicated codes, you SHOULD learn basic and more then mediocre Python to start discord.py.
Good luck!

I need the python code for command where are two arguments, first arg1 is to choose one option from the list, second arg2 is to put value by the user (from the screen opcje = options; obliczanie = calculation; mnożnik = multiplier; wartość = value). Than bot will calculate (arg1 * arg2) and return result for the user. I can PAY if someone learn me how to code this.

[sick birch]

What do you mean by "value by the user"?

Not sure if slash commands let you enter in text

Never mind it has a STRING type

[ebon island]

Is it possible to create a loop that checks for whether or not a message is actually sent and retry until it is?

[sick birch]

if the message isn't sent you'll get an error

[ebon island]

It doesn't seem to be an error which is picked up by Python though

[sick birch]

sending a message can raise one of 3 exceptions:

if you don't get any of these, then the message is sent

If you don't get an error and the message isn't sent, you have a faulty error handler.

[ebon island]

So the error resulting (presumably from connection issue) is as such:

Task exception was never retrieved

Functionally, each server has a task object which then replaces itself with the next task barrel of monkeys style, the problem is, when a connection issue arises it effectively loses the chain and doesn't have an error and instead simply stops trying to continue

[sick birch]

Can you send the full traceback?

[placid meadow]

I want to delete the info of the server in the .json via the command...

[ebon island]

Task exception was never retrieved

Returned error there is 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable, is this something you can target with try except?

[sick birch]

Ah that sounds like a server issue

[pliant gulch]

This has nothing to do with your bot, just a discord end error

Nothing you can do to fix until discord fixes their issue

[sick birch]

Perhaps implement an exponential backoff algorithm

• try to send message
• if it doesn't work, wait 2 seconds
• try to send message
• if it doesn't work, wait 4 seconds
• try to send message
• if it doesn't work, wait 8 seconds
• try to send message
• if it doesn't work, wait 16 seconds
• try to send message
• if it doesn't work, wait 32 seconds

so on and so forth

[ebon island]

Interesting, so how would I go about actually implementing that?

Given that the tasks are effectively an attr on an Object, how do I handle that spawning/retry?

[sick birch]

Have a class that has the last wait time stored in memory, each time you call a certain method, double it, and return it while you also store the new doubled number in memory

I've seen this actually implemented in the discord.py library's source code itself

[ebon island]

Really? Whereabouts?

That would be extremely helpful to see

[sick birch]

I really wish I could tell you but frankly it was a while ago and I don't exactly remember

An never mind here it is:
https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/backoff.py

[pliant gulch]

Its done inside of run

[sick birch]

I actually thought it was hidden away as a class in some arbitrary file but nope, here we are haha

[ebon island]

Ooh, interesting! I see this is in the official Discord.py git, does that mean it is something accessible from the Discord.py package?

[sick birch]

No it's mostly used within the internals

I doubt it was meant for use, but with some tweaking you could probably get it to work

though i'd have to suggest you replicate the class yourself, simplify it down perhaps, and use that instead

[ebon island]

Is there any way to invoke it? It doesn't seem that however it is internally implemented that it is working in our case

[sick birch]

I mean it's just a class so perhaps you could just import it and call its methods

But yet again it wasn't designed for front end use, so who knows what it might break

It has a lot of elements to it that aren't really needed for regular use (very in-depth type hinting, more functionality than you would need for a simple backoff algo)

you could strip it down to a very simple class that works efficiently

[ebon island]

I think the first thing I will try is just a linear retry loop in a very simplified command set, just a simple loop that does try except and if there is ever a service unavailable it passes the command into it and also passes the wait time into the method as args

[sick birch]

Sound alright

[ebon island]

what is the actual exception in Dpy?

[sick birch]

What do you mean

[ebon island]

the Exception

[sick birch]

For sending a message?

[ebon island]

assuming it's a built in exception

503

[pliant gulch]

Construct the class, E.g ExponentialBackoff, next when you want to retry do ExponentialBackoff.delay() to get the time, then sleep that amount

[sick birch]

Oh 503 is a HTTPException or something of that sort

[pliant gulch]

No

Well, yes ig

But its a server error

Something went wrong with discord's servers and their offline

[sick birch]

Right it should raise a discord.HTTPException though?

[pliant gulch]

It subclasses HTTPException iirc

[ebon island]

ooh okay, let me look in the docs at HTTPException and see if there is a special case handled for that

[sick birch]

pretty sure the error has .status attribute

[placid meadow]

The first one add a channel , i want the second too remoove the channel.

help please

[ebon island]

Yeah!

Hmm

[sick birch]

you can just check if the .status == 503 or something of that sort to check for an outage, if so start the exponential/linear backoff algorithm

[pliant gulch]

You probably want the code attribute of the error

That's the discord specific error code, althought it might be the status

[sick birch]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/dispatch/error-codes#error-codes
list of codes and what they mean

[ebon island]

I will do some testing and see what I can make happen 🙂

[placid meadow]

. help please lol

[sick birch]

awesome, best of luck

[ebon island]

Thank you so much! ❤️

[pliant gulch]

And for an outage check you can just check if the error code starts with 5

Cause anything from discord that is a 5xx error is a server error

[sick birch]

str(code)[0] == "5" hehe

or floor it

[placid meadow]

anybody no?

[sick birch]

json.dump() will only dumb the dict contents to the json file, just remove the channel from the dict and dump that

[placid meadow]

i want it to be remoove via command

as my bot is a global chat

[sick birch]

What is the structure of your JSON file?

[placid meadow]

guild id
channel id
invite

[sick birch]

Are they seperated into nested dicts?

[sick birch]

I see

It would probably be a better idea to use the guild ID as the key to the nested dict

would be easier to remove

[placid meadow]

sure i don't mind

but how to do hmm

[sick birch]

with your current structure it's going to get really messy and unconventional to remove a certain guild

[magic ore]

using an actual database would make this much easier

[sick birch]

yikes

but yes use an actual database

json as a db is a terrible idea

[placid meadow]

right , but i have an actual server to host it

has more than 2tb of storage

[sick birch]

Awesome, put something like postgres or MySQL on it

[placid meadow]

no idea how to set it up tho

[sick birch]

sqlite is very easy to setup and lightweight

it's just a .db file

[placid meadow]

as oppose to a .json?

[sick birch]

right, except it's a full fledged database

.json on the other hand, is only a file format

it's terrible at storing persistent data

due to sqlite's speed and lightweight-ness, many people even use it as a caching layer for their real databases

[placid meadow]

okok i see letm e download really fast

[pliant gulch]

Ehhh I wouldn't really recommend sqlite as a cache for your database

If you want a good cache you'd want to use redis

Caching stuff is usually for scalability and redis just crushes that

[slate swan]

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

[sick birch]

Agreed, redis is awesome for caching

[final iron]

Define check

[placid meadow]

@sick birch

[sick birch]

...def?

[placid meadow]

def?

[sick birch]

the file extension

[placid meadow]

i don't have that

[sick birch]

correct me if i'm wrong here but sqlite will auto generate the file if you try to connect to a file that doesn't exist

not sure if you should make a .db file by hand as sqlite might fill it up with some sort of formatting data

[placid meadow]

it does make a database file

but can't open it

[sick birch]

why not?

also you can't manually open it without specialized software

[placid meadow]

oh

wich software can i use?

[sick birch]

there are plenty out there, a quick search for sqlite database browser will reveal many

or you can just print it out using python to the terminal

[pliant gulch]

Once you get sqlite setup you want to make sure you are using an async driver, since discord.py is an asynchronous environment

[sick birch]

^ like asqlite or aiosqlite

asqlite was actually made by Danny (creator of discord.py), it has better defaults and is lightweight so i would suggest that

[slate swan]

how can I find a role ID from the role name

[sick birch]

discord.utils.get(...).id

[kindred drum]

do I put the role name in the parenthesis?

[sick birch]

No, refer to the documentation

discord.utils.get(...) takes an iterable and kwargs

[cloud tundra]

Hi
I need some help for my bots queue function

can someone help?

[sick birch]

sure just ask

[cloud tundra]

im trying to make a queue function for the bot

and i need to await a function using lambda

the function that leads to the queue, playing the next song

but im getting errors

[sick birch]

you don't need a lambda

you can pass in a coro just as well to the after function

or i think
