discord-bots

[brittle ingot]

not locally hosted either.

[slate swan]

haha, Its probably like 60ms for me, my bot is rn searching from over 10 subreddits * 9 with praw api

[brittle ingot]

are you using asyncpraw?

[slate swan]

Average 3ms

Mine

[slate swan]

You mean the reddit api?

[brittle ingot]

its called praw yeah 😄

[slate swan]

Praw is just an api wrapper with a async version which is asyncpraw

[slate swan]

Shhhh

🚶

[leaden jasper]

i think u can use the api directly instead

[slate swan]

I like calling it the reddit api

[brittle ingot]

i mean you aren't wrong.

[slate swan]

Even the docs calls itself the reddit api

[brittle ingot]

Just use asyncPRAW its literally the same thing, just asynchronous

[leaden jasper]

how about aiohttp

its async

[slate swan]

Yes but thats for the web

And not reddit only

[brittle ingot]

why go through the hassle of creating requests when there is a library to do it for you?

[leaden jasper]

cus there is an api

[slate swan]

Yeah its just unnecessary

[slate swan]

oh yeah and its also got a infinite loop * 9

[brittle ingot]

i mean its a feesible option, just not always the best. as a library can handle eventualities that you may not consider.

[slate swan]

Wdym

[pliant gulch]

You don't need to reinvent the wheel

[brittle ingot]

^

[leaden jasper]

maybe the library is slow

so u make the requests on ur own

[slate swan]

I want to make a api wrapper for the reddit api or a asyncpraw fork but idk if i should start

[slate swan]

the loops are for automatic embed sending

Kinda scared

[slate swan]

Are you sending multiple images at a time?

[brittle ingot]

i mean there are an endless amount of libraries that need to be made ||I have a project that needs a Python library|| 🤣

[slate swan]

its taking img from praw and making a embed

[slate swan]

Yes i know but wdym by a loop

[brittle ingot]

a meme command.

[slate swan]

Ive made a search command with asyncpraw lol

[slate swan]

while loop so it keeps sending the imgs 24/7

[slate swan]

Will probably get you ratelimited if you constantly do it

[brittle ingot]

same, did a meme command for a bot a while back, had it where it searched a set of subreddits, or you could enter your own to search 😄

[slate swan]

unlikely

Bad thing about asyncpraw using the multiple reddit instance makes it very slow

[brittle ingot]

why not just make it a background task using ```py
@tasks.loop()

[slate swan]

Depends the time of each call

ah yes 126ms

5857.46ms

lovely

[brittle ingot]

oooof

yeah its taking up tons of resources

[slate swan]

I mean I've got like 3 websites and 1 game server running on the same vds

and only 4gb 2cores

I think using the multiple reddit instance and when you use a limit of subs it will look for the limit in total for all the subreddits and not the limit per subreddit idk

[leaden jasper]

yep so just use aiohttp

[slate swan]

Nah

Dont want to🚶

🕴️

the latency is so bad I thought my command didn't work and went back to coding, after realising that it was just taking shit ton of time to work lol

Damn

[leaden jasper]

asyncpraw is slow ig

[slate swan]

Not really

[leaden jasper]

I used it before but forgot what performance was like

[slate swan]

Depends on how much subreddits your searching and how many submissions your going through but getting a random sub is very quick

[leaden jasper]

aiohttp can get 100 subs in a second

[slate swan]

Thats nice

Still not gonna use aiohttp for that

[leaden jasper]

and

reddit = asyncpraw.Reddit( client_id="CLIENT_ID", client_secret="CLIENT_SECRET", password="PASSWORD", user_agent="USERAGENT", username="USERNAME", )

it doesn't require any of that

no auth

[slate swan]

🤷‍♂️

[vocal shoal]

is there a function that returns thr name of the last command/event that ran?

[slate swan]

At your service

[leaden jasper]

Member not found

I read the error

[vocal shoal]

member was not found

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.MemberNotFound: Member "deleted-role" not found.

is delete_after= in seconds or minutes

cuz its taking shit ton of time to delete itself for some reason

[slate swan]

Secs as ints

[slate swan]

I think it gets ints and floats idk

I have
await channel.send(content=None, embed=embed, delete_after=1)

Or only floats

and it takes like 30 sec to delete

or 15s

Did you actually add the member

And do you have intents and is the bot higher than the role the member has

    for guild in client.guilds:
        for channel in guild.channels:
            if os.path.exists("/home/bot/adx/channel"+str(guild.id)) == True:
                file = open("channel"+str(guild.id), "r")
                if str(channel.id) == file.read():
                    embed = discord.Embed(title="Channel inactive", description="Send a message to refresh", color=0xFF0000)
                    embed.add_field(name="Reason for inactivity:", value="Restart by developer", inline=False)
                    embed.add_field(name="Note: ", value="Everything should be working now.", inline=False)
                    await channel.send(content=None, embed=embed, delete_after=1)
                    break

I have this in on_ready so whenever my bot crashes(every damn second), it sends that so ppl think im just deving the bot and my servers arent shitty

[slate swan]

^

What about it

Can your bot kick others?

And is the bot higher in roles than the users your trying to kick

Answer my question

why add kick command

kinda useless just right click

All these questions are related to the problem if not answered i cannot help you out understand?

and kick user

[slate swan]

^ now?

Try printing out all members

await ctx.send(ctx.guild.members)

No send it in a different command

[snow flare]

To do something apart from replying to the interaction, would I use interaction.response just like for replying to the interaction, or would I have to use something else?

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
    await ctx.send(ctx.guild.members)

[slate swan]

You want it to send an individual msg?

[snow flare]

by something apart from replying I mean like kicking a user, deleting a channel, creating a channel, deleting a message

[snow flare]

. @slate swan

[slate swan]

Yes i think so

Never done it but probably can

[snow flare]

what would I use tho?

would I just use interaction.response?

and then something like interaction.response.category.create_channel("channel name")?

[slate swan]

Interaction is enough

[snow flare]

ok

[slate swan]

Response is for responding to a msg

[lavish sun]

Looking for some help please on how to do something.
i want to make a discord bot that sends messages every so many minutes but I want to be able to create multiple messages with different time intervals

I know i can use tasks..loop to send a message every so many minutes, but it's a question of how would i actually store every message, different times and cycle through them and post. Obviously tasks.loop requires a timeframe so e.g tasks.loop(minutes=10)

[snow flare]

yeah, that is why I was asking

[fervent quail]

interaction.guild

[umbral dome]

@bot.command(name = "test")
async def _test(ctx):
    try:

        await ctx.send(f"Random tekst here {ctx.author} ")

[slate swan]

I think interaction has all the attr ctx has

[slate swan]

Wont work

[slate swan]

Plus no need for a try and except and your missing an exception

[umbral dome]

!e

@client.command(name = "test")
async def _test(ctx):
    try:

        await ctx.send(f"Random tekst here {ctx.author} ")
        message = {
        "content" : f"Random message {ctx.author} "
}
        requests.post(config['Webhookurl'], data=message)
        

    except(ValueError):
        await ctx.send("***not vallid***")

[unkempt canyon]

@umbral dome :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
003 | NameError: name 'bot' is not defined

[tacit horizon]

how to make

if any(word in message.content for word in list):
```not case sensitive

[slate swan]

Just why

[umbral dome]

!e

@client.command(name = "test")
async def _test(ctx):
    try:

        await ctx.send(f"Random tekst here {ctx.author} ")
        message = {
        "content" : f"Random message {ctx.author} "
}
        requests.post(config['Webhookurl'], data=message)
        

    except(ValueError):
        await ctx.send("***not vallid***")

[snow flare]

how would I create a channel in a particular category tho, because It wouldn't work if I do something like this:

category = ...
await interaction.category.create_channel()

as it would think that .category is a sub class/program of interaction

[unkempt canyon]

@umbral dome :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
003 | NameError: name 'client' is not defined

[umbral dome]

😭

yea it works on my pc

[slate swan]

Dont really know

Not familiar with category an its attrs

[tacit horizon]

how

[fervent quail]

Read the docs. It's guild.create_text_channel and category is a kwarg

[snow flare]

actually, I don't think that I need to use await interaction, because all of this code is already inside the callback

[snow flare]

that is not the problem that I had

the problem is that I needed to do it after the interaction

and I just don't really know how to work with interactions

[slate swan]

Just do @tacit horizon

if any(word in message.content.lower() for word in list): 

[fervent quail]

I can't give you anymore information, I've told you it's interaction.guild

look up guild.create_text_channel

for how to do it in a category

[leaden jasper]

maybe u can use sets

[lavish sun]

[sage otter]

!d itertools.cycle

[unkempt canyon]

itertools.cycle

itertools.cycle(iterable)```
Make an iterator returning elements from the iterable and saving a copy of each. When the iterable is exhausted, return elements from the saved copy. Repeats indefinitely. Roughly equivalent to:

```py
def cycle(iterable):
    # cycle('ABCD') --> A B C D A B C D A B C D ...
    saved = []
    for element in iterable:
        yield element
        saved.append(element)
    while saved:
        for element in saved:
              yield element
```...

[sage otter]

and use next every new cycle.

[snow flare]

btw, how would I pass variables into my own View class

[tacit horizon]

nice

[slate swan]

Makes the message content all lower case and if its in the list it will continue

[tacit horizon]

ya

[slate swan]

[tacit horizon]

if any(word in message.content for word in wrod1):
        await message.channel.send("No") 

if anyone say that word, then i want to add his name in a list.
and how many time he said that .

@slate swan help !! 😅

[slate swan]

Im lurking 🕴️

[tacit horizon]

its OOP

[tacit horizon]

why ;-;

[slate swan]

Cause im thinking

And youll probably want a dict and not a list

[tacit horizon]

ya

[slate swan]

You can use a db or json

Json would be fine since your storing an int key with and int value

[tacit horizon]

Json !!!!

[slate swan]

[tacit horizon]

javascript ?

[slate swan]

No the json.py module that uses the json format

[tacit horizon]

json is python module

[slate swan]

Yes

Use it🕴️

[tacit horizon]

and its look like javascript ?

[slate swan]

I mean its from js

🕴️

[dire folio]

how would i add a role to a user if i have their id?

[tacit horizon]

can u make it in simple python form not in discord form

with input()

[slate swan]

Nvm what i said

Wdym

[tacit horizon]

huh

[slate swan]

Wdym by using input()

[tacit horizon]

wait

nvm

[slate swan]

await add_roles(role)

[dire folio]

but what about the user?

[cloud dawn]

!d disnake.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Member.add\_roles

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

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Role "disnake.Role")s.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.manage_roles "disnake.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Role "disnake.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[snow flare]

you would have to fetch the user first, which would look something like this:

user = await bot.fetch_user(user_id)
await user.add_roles(role)

[dire folio]

is it the role id?

[cloud dawn]

This will only work on member objects*

[snow flare]

yeah, I think so

[snow flare]

oh yeah true, so it would have to be fetch_member, sorry

[dire folio]

im getting AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'fetch_member'

[slate swan]

Type hint an arg with a membee obj and add the role with it

[slate swan]

Because thats not a thing afaik

[dire folio]

what should it look like?

cause idk what type hinting is

[snow flare]

use get_member

[dire folio]

instead of fetch_member?

[snow flare]

yeah

[dire folio]

i get the same Attribute Error

[velvet tinsel]

?

whats wrong

[dire folio]

(with get_member not fetch_member)

[velvet tinsel]

show code

[dire folio]

user = await bot.get_member(userid)await user.add_roles(913137354900897792)

[velvet tinsel]

it depends on what they're using, but I'm assuming they're using bot

[dire folio]

i am

[velvet tinsel]

so...get_member returns an attribute error?

[dire folio]

userid = user.id
user = await bot.get_member(userid)
await user.add_roles(913137354900897792)

[dire folio]

ye

[velvet tinsel]

alright

ohhh

try ctx.guild.get_member(userid)

@dire folio ?

[dire folio]

k

[velvet tinsel]

does it work?

[dire folio]

i got TypeError: object Member can't be used in 'await' expression

[velvet tinsel]

it's not async

no await

just ctx.guild.get_member(userid)

[dire folio]

k lemme try it

[dire folio]

i got AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'id'

[velvet tinsel]

hmm

[slate swan]

can I change embed.set_image size somehow?

[velvet tinsel]

try making it a str? that's my best guess

wait...

[slate swan]

I mean how do I make the embed bigger?

[velvet tinsel]

is user ctx.author?

[velvet tinsel]

? make the embed bigger?

[dire folio]

u don't

[slate swan]

ah

[dire folio]

at least i think

[dire folio]

no

[velvet tinsel]

then what is it?

wait

[dire folio]

its a mentioned person

[velvet tinsel]

who is user.id

[velvet tinsel]

ah

[dire folio]

the id of the mentioned person

[velvet tinsel]

is user: discord.User?

[dire folio]

ye

[velvet tinsel]

ok

ohh

because user is already the mentioned person, you dont need a get_member

just add it directly, because you did a user: discord.User

userid = user.id
await user.add_roles(...)

... do you really need the user id?

@dire folio

[dire folio]

nope

@velvet tinsel i'm getting AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'add_roles'

[velvet tinsel]

hmm

[slate swan]

Add roles only takes member objs

[velvet tinsel]

try await bot.add_roles(userid, role)...Okimii?

[velvet tinsel]

thank god you're here

I can finally go sleep

[slate swan]

no

await member.add_roles(role)

[velvet tinsel]

isn't that what he just did?

Okimii?

[slate swan]

Wdym

[velvet tinsel]

await user.add_roles(...)

is what he did

[slate swan]

Add roles only takes member objs

If it would be like that user is a member obj

[velvet tinsel]

member is discord.Member?

[slate swan]

If you name it that yes

[velvet tinsel]

ahhh

so it's not discord.User?

[slate swan]

pepe:discord.Member
Pepe is a member obj

[slate swan]

Yes their is a user but add roles doesnt take that type

[velvet tinsel]

ahhhh

thank you

[slate swan]

Yw

[velvet tinsel]

.bm

[dire folio]

can i get an id from that, cause i need the id

[slate swan]

Yes

The member obj takes ids and usernames

[tacit horizon]

😅

[unkempt canyon]

Not in my house!

Package could not be found.

[slate swan]

🕴️

[tacit horizon]

if any(word in message.content for word in wrod1):
``` how do i get the user name who type that word

i have to add ctx

but how ;-;

[slate swan]

@velvet tinsel read this
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/

[dire folio]

i get AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'id

[slate swan]

ctx.message.content

Iirc

[tacit horizon]

where do i put thissssssssssssss

[slate swan]

Show

[lost wolf]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: ValueError: None is not in list

[slate swan]

[dire folio]

    userid = user.id
        await user.add_roles(913137354900897792)

[tacit horizon]

still not get it 😣

[slate swan]

Iirc it only takes the names of the roles

[slate swan]

Just add ctx.

In message content

[tacit horizon]

ohh

[dire folio]

now i'm getting AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'id'

[slate swan]

async def accept(ctx, memberr: discord.Member, role):
        await member.add_roles(role) 

That should work

[dire folio]

ty

[dire folio]

for the id is it just member.id?

[slate swan]

No just add the member id when you call the comamnd

[dire folio]

the member id changes tho

[slate swan]

Never does

A member id never changes but a member username could

[dire folio]

no cause its going to be for different users

[slate swan]

Then add a different id

How you should call the command
!accept 1234567890 role

Dont knoe your prefix so i used ! Lol

[dire folio]

so use the id instead of the mention?

[slate swan]

Yes

[dire folio]

it doesn't do the intended thing
heres the command:

async def accept(ctx, member: discord.Member, role):
    userid = member
    print(userid)
    for item in waiting:
        if item[0] == userid and item[1] == 'hoster' and role == item[1]:
            role = item[1]
            emb = discord.Embed(title='**Accepted**', description=f'Congratulations you have been accepted for {role}!', color=0x2ecc71)
            await member.send(embed=emb)
            await member.add_roles("Hoster")
            emb = discord.Embed(title='**User has been accepted!**', description='The neccessary roles have been added.')
            await ctx.send(embed=emb)
            str(role)
            waiting.remove([userid, role])
            save_waiting()
            return
        elif item[0] == userid and item[1] == 'staff' and role == item[1]:
            role = item[1]
            emb = discord.Embed(title='**Accepted**', description=f'Congratulations you have been accepted for {role}!', color=0x2ecc71)
            await member.send(embed=emb)
            urole = discord.utils.get(bot.get_guild(ctx.guild.id).roles, id = 763000301467992084)
            await member.add_roles(urole)
            urole = discord.utils.get(bot.get_guild(ctx.guild.id).roles, id = 760101679877849089)
            await member.add_roles(urole)
            emb = discord.Embed(title='**User has been accepted!**', description='The neccessary roles have been added.')
            await ctx.send(embed=emb)
            str(role)
            waiting.remove([userid, role])
            save_waiting()
            return
    else:
        await ctx.send('No user found!')

i haven't changed the elif part

the list looks like [[1212341231, 'hoster']]

[brittle ingot]

you should be able to just mention a member and pull their ID from the mention as long as you type hinted it properly.

[lost wolf]

how do i get the user id that used the command?

[brittle ingot]

user_id = ctx.author.id

[lost wolf]

alright thanks

[dire folio]

how would i do that?

[brittle ingot]

async def accept(self, ctx, memberr: discord.Member, role: discord.Role): 
    member_id = memberr.id 
    role_name = role.name

Type hinting like i did above for both memberr and role allows you to mention the role or memberr by @, ID, or its exact name and receive the entire object for it. Note: any exact names that have spaces need to be incased in quotation marks so your command knows its one arg.

[lost wolf]

how to check if someone mentions my bot. and if they do the bot will send a message

[slate swan]

how would i make a reminder command i was thinking using asyncio.sleep() because its a private bot but im not because its kinda bad practice so how would i?

my while loop doesn't go thru completely for some reason it just stays at the start and restarts itself

[sick birch]

Let's see the code then

[slate swan]

its kinda nsfw but aigh

                while autoporn:
                    if message.channel.is_nsfw():
                        if os.path.exists("/home/bot/adx/channel"+str(message.guild.id)) == True:

                            if str(message.channel.id) in file.read():
                                post = reddit.subreddit("legalteens").random()

                                post = reddit.subreddit("zerotwohentai").random()
                                while post.url == None or "redgif" in post.url:
                                    print("skip")
                                    post = reddit.subreddit("zerotwohentai").random()
                                embed = discord.Embed(title="r/zerotwohentai")
                                embed.set_image(url=post.url)
                                await message.channel.send(content=None, embed=embed)
                                # ```

would await asyncio.sleep() work as fix for
aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientOSError: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer

or does it need to be time.sleep()

[dire folio]

could u check this pls.

async def accept(ctx, memberr: discord.Member, role: discord.Role):
    userid = memberr.id
    for item in waiting:
        if item[0] == userid and item[1] == 'Hoster' and role == item[1]:
            emb = discord.Embed(title='**Accepted**', description=f'Congratulations you have been accepted for {item[1]}!', color=0x2ecc71)
            await memberr.send(embed=emb)
            await memberr.add_roles("Hoster")
            emb = discord.Embed(title='**User has been accepted!**', description='The neccessary roles have been added.')
            await ctx.send(embed=emb)
            str(role)
            waiting.remove([userid, role])
            save_waiting()
            return

cause it doesn't seem to be working

[brittle ingot]

what are you inputting for the role when you run the command?

Hoster ?

[dire folio]

ye thats the role name

and it is what i am inputting

[brittle ingot]

so you get a role object to use then. so instead of:

await member.add_roles("Hoster") 

Which wouldn't work anyways as it takes a role object.

do:

await member.add_roles(role)

also your if statement looks a bit wonky.

if item[0] == userid and item[1] == 'Hoster' and role == item[1]:

has you checking the same thing twice essentially.

try:

if item[0] == memberr.id and item[1] == role.name: 
    ... do stuff

Also have you considered a database by chance? i don't mean to put you down, but your code looks a bit inefficient with the for loop. May be better to store anyone waiting for a role in a database where you can store the userId as the primary key, the role id as the role they are waiting for and their status as "waiting", "accepted", or "denied". This could easily be done using SQLite or PostgreSQL

[slate swan]

how can i make a check that checks if the interaction author is the context author?

[brittle ingot]

what is the code? is there a callback? like res or something? you could do:

if res.author.id === ctx.author.id:
    ...some stuff

[slate swan]

trying to do a button that only is valid when the context author interacts with it

dont have a tb since i havent started

[brittle ingot]

you should get a return of essentially context with the interaction and you can check that as it should return who interacted if the person who interacted isn't the author of the command then pass else execute code.

[slate swan]

may i get an example i have 0 idea what your talking about mr fancy words

[brittle ingot]

oh gosh its been a bit since i've used buttons in python 😂

[slate swan]

lol

[brittle ingot]

#1

def filter(res): 
   return res.author.id = ctx.author.id

try:
  while True:
      res = await self.bot.wait_for('Button_click', check=check, timeout = 500)
     
      if clause == true:
            ...execute code
    
except asyncio.timeoutError as e:
    ...handle it

remember its all psuedo. depends on the lib and everything.

[slate swan]

im using disnake lol

[brittle ingot]

oh then i have no clue. brb.

[slate swan]

damn😭

[brittle ingot]

what type of interaction.

[slate swan]

wdym what type

[pliant gulch]

Since you are using disnake, which is a fork of discord.py you have View.interaction_check

[slate swan]

i do?

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.ui.View.interaction_check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.interaction\_check

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

A callback that is called when an interaction happens within the view that checks whether the view should process item callbacks for the interaction.

This is useful to override if, for example, you want to ensure that the interaction author is a given user.

The default implementation of this returns `True`.

Note

If an exception occurs within the body then the check is considered a failure and [`on_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.ui.View.on_error "discord.ui.View.on_error") is called.

[slate swan]

🚶

[pliant gulch]

This works the same way as the cog check you get inside of Cogs

Just store a ctx instance variable to your view class

Then use it inside of the interaction_check

E.g ```py
return self.context.author == interaction.author

[brittle ingot]

thank god andy was here 😂 i got docs open trying to bash my way through it to try and find an answer 😂

[pliant gulch]

This will cause all children of the view to only run if the ctx author is the one pressing the button/interaction

[slate swan]

wdym?

[pliant gulch]

MyView(ctx)

[slate swan]

oh

[slate swan]

in the class right

[pliant gulch]

You'd subclass View and give it a ctx parameter inside of the class constructor

[slate swan]

alr thx

[solid falcon]

I made a discord bot that allows you to ask it to write code and explain how code works using the openAI API. I'd love some feedback on what I have so far! https://github.com/DH711-creator/ai-discord-bot

[pliant gulch]

You'd probably want to use an async driver for OpenAI engines

If there is one, otherwise run it inside of executor

As this would block your bot for the amount of time it takes to compute results

[slate swan]

works thanks andy

oh and @brittle ingot thx for effort

[dire folio]

how would i make it add multiple roles

[brittle ingot]

!d discord.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.add\_roles

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

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s.

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

[brittle ingot]

you can give it a list of roles to add.

[slate swan]

you can only add roles as a list and not a single role

[pliant gulch]

*roles means you can add any amount of roles

[slate swan]

like their isnt something like add_role

[slate swan]

my bad it was kinda bad written

[dire folio]

how would i separate the role names

[slate swan]

coma

[snow flare]

I have made my own View class, and I'm trying to pass variables into it, but for some reason I get this error: discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'View' object has no attribute 'children'
This is how it looks. Did I do it the wrong way? and how can I fix it?

class View(View):

    def __init__(self, ctx, category):
        self.ctx = ctx
        self.category = category

view = View(ctx, category)

[slate swan]

as any string

[slate swan]

what lib?

[snow flare]

pycord

[slate swan]

welp dont know

[snow flare]

what lib do you use?

[solid falcon]

wonderful, thank you

[pliant gulch]

You need to construct the super class

[snow flare]

isn't that only used to make timeouts?

[slate swan]

no

thats to subclass a class

[snow flare]

oh, ok, so would I just write something like super().__init__(ctx, category)?

under def init

[pliant gulch]

No, because the superclass doesn't take ctx nor category

Those are your custom stuff so you don't pass it to the superclass

[slate swan]

class View(View):
    def __init__(self, ctx, category):
    self.ctx = ctx
    self.category = category
    def super().__init__(timeout=None):

[snow flare]

what is the point of it then?

[snow flare]

alright, I'll try it, give me a sec

[slate swan]

it wont work

[pliant gulch]

Not def super

Just super().__init__()

[slate swan]

how did i mess that up

when im working with it rn

[snow flare]

ok, it worked, thank you guys

[slate swan]

yw

how can i get an author of an error handler?

[dire folio]

i did await memberr.add_roles('Trial Mod', 'Staff') and got the error

Ignoring exception in command accept:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 85, in wrapped
    ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "main.py", line 976, in accept
    await memberr.add_roles('Trial Mod', 'Staff')
  File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/member.py", line 777, in add_roles
    await req(guild_id, user_id, role.id, reason=reason)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'id'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/bot.py", line 939, in invoke

    raise CommandInvokeError(exc) from exc
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'id'

[snow flare]

also, if I wanted to make a private command, that can only be used by a user with a certain role, would I just add a @has_role() decorator into the command?

[slate swan]

yup

[snow flare]

ok, thanks

[slate swan]

yw

[snow flare]

is it an interaction?

[pliant gulch]

Your passing strings, not discord.Role objects

[slate swan]

no its an event?

[pliant gulch]

You want to get the user which caused the error?

[slate swan]

yup

[dire folio]

how do i pass them as discord.Role objects?

[pliant gulch]

You'd do ctx.author then

[snow flare]

surely you should be able to do something like ctx.author

[pliant gulch]

Since you get that in on_command_error

[snow flare]

if you pass in ctx into the event

[pliant gulch]

You'd need to get the role,

You can do so via get_role

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

get_role(role_id, /)```
Returns a role with the given ID.

[slate swan]

i tried but i got no response from the error handler

[pliant gulch]

Take the return of this method and save it as the role

Pass it to add_roles

[pliant gulch]

Can you show the code?

[slate swan]

@bot.event 
async def on_command_error(ctx,error):
    view = buttons.tb(ctx.author)
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound): 
        embed8 = disnake.Embed(title="Error!!!",
        description=f"Could not continue",
        color=0xe74c3c,
        timestamp=datetime.datetime.utcnow()) 
        await ctx.send(embed=embed8,view=view)
        await view.wait()
        if view.value is True:
            embed9 = disnake.Embed(title="Terminal",
            description=error,
            color=0xe74c3c,
            timestamp=datetime.datetime.utcnow())
            await ctx.send(embed=embed9)

[slate swan]

in your params
role: discord.Role

[pliant gulch]

And it works when you don't give an author?

[slate swan]

yep

[pliant gulch]

Somethings happening inside of the buttons.tb then

What is that doing exactly?

[slate swan]

class Tb(disnake.ui.View):
    def __init__(self,author: disnake.Member):
        self.author = author
        super().__init__(timeout=10.0)
        self.value = None

    async def on_timeout(self):
        self.children[0].disabled = True
        self.stop()

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Traceback",style=disnake.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def traceb(self,button:disnake.ui.Button,intr: disnake.MessageInteraction):
        await intr.send("Loading Traceback...",ephemeral=True)
        self.value = True
        self.children[0].disabled = True
        self.stop()

thats the class

[pliant gulch]

Where exactly are you using the author though

And I don't see anything here that would cause an error

Is there no error raised and it just hangs?

[slate swan]

nope

[snow flare]

how can I tag a channel in a message?

if I have the channel object

[slate swan]

nvm lol

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.TextChannel.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.mention

property mention: str```
The string that allows you to mention the channel.

[pliant gulch]

Got no clue then, maybe try putting the class construction inside of a try-except to see if you maybe get an error out

[slate swan]

alr

[snow flare]

so would I just do something like channel.send("message " + discord.TextChannel.mention(some_channel))
or what? I don't really get it

[slate swan]

wait were exactly?

[snow flare]

or would it just be: channel.send("message " + discord.the_channel_that_I_want_to_mention.mention)?

[pliant gulch]

Nope its a property so

Just channel.mention

[snow flare]

so somethingl like this would work?

[pliant gulch]

channel here being a discord.TextChannel instance

[snow flare]

shit, wrong mention

[snow flare]

ok, thanks

[pliant gulch]

Inside of the error handler

[slate swan]

ah mb

[slate swan]

nope no error was raised

[pliant gulch]

I got no clue then

[slate swan]

damn

[slate swan]

works on commands but not on the event

[kindred epoch]

@slate swan is that a slash command or a normal command?

Cuz slash commands has a diff global command handler

[slate swan]

how can i make a util which returns X based on what i input eg:

content = "--do ban --do kick"
util.args(content, "--do")```
i want to make it return **ban** anyone know how i can do this

[slate swan]

command error event

normal command

[kindred epoch]

Oh ok

[slate swan]

yeah

[rare saddle]

???

version discord.py == 2.0

[wicked atlas]

Looks like they changed up the ClientUser object in 2.0

[rare saddle]

thanks you

[wicked atlas]

Honestly, I'd suggest moving to a fork instead of using d.py anymore

[rare saddle]

What's happened - fork?

[slate swan]

typo?

[slate swan]

not that init

[slate swan]

your doing buttons right

[rare saddle]

yea

[slate swan]

because if your doing buttons the kwarg is style

[rare saddle]

ohhh, yea. Didn't notice, thanks

[slate swan]

yw

[brittle ingot]

idk who pinged me but i was afk sorry.

[harsh abyss]

how do i fix that i just downloaded requests and it says that

[slate swan]

its request

iirc

[harsh abyss]

ik i downloaded it

[wicked atlas]

close and open your editor

[harsh abyss]

thanks

[slate swan]

and use aiohttp request isnt async

[brittle ingot]

plus im in this server and they are beta testing a bot, They want people to add the bot to their servers to test it. The bot requests Administrator permissions, but has only Help, info, bot info, support and thats it. Its supposed to be a raid prevention bot. Am i the only one who thinks it sounds fishy?

[slate swan]

!pypi aiohttp

[unkempt canyon]

aiohttp v3.8.1

Async http client/server framework (asyncio)

[slate swan]

nah thats really fishy

[wicked atlas]

yeah

It's either their doing something not good, or they could just not be educated on why not to give bots admin

[brittle ingot]

i think they're trying to get the bot in 75 servers to get the verification process going. but #1 never give a bot admin perms. #2 why beta test with none of the needed commands for the bot to actually function...

[brittle ingot]

the team leader of the development team is a discord verified bot developer 👀

[wicked atlas]

😐

[slate swan]

still you shouldnt give a bot admin perms

[brittle ingot]

oh i know lol

[slate swan]

all of my bots need admin perms

[brittle ingot]

mhmm bet

[slate swan]

[brittle ingot]

no offense if it actually needs it then great, but like i see so many people using it as a way to bypass actually giving their bot the permissions they should need at a minimum. you know? Like one of the first things i do is sit down and say. What will my bot do? What permissions does it need to do that?

[slate swan]

i just give it admin perms for the future i wont need to re invite it

[pliant gulch]

Kek, thats the last thing I think of

[brittle ingot]

really?

[slate swan]

im to lazy to do it lol

[wicked atlas]

Can't you just add permissions to it's bot role?

[slate swan]

to lazy🚶

[wicked atlas]

😐

[pliant gulch]

Yep, I'm pretty lazy as well

[slate swan]

relatable

[pliant gulch]

I've made auto permissions calculators before just so I don't need to think that much

[brittle ingot]

wait is there an invite generator in python libs?

i don't see why not.

[slate swan]

period

not coma

[harsh abyss]

thanks

i cant see that well

[slate swan]

yw

lol

[harsh abyss]

what does that mean

[brittle ingot]

should be requests.get() right?

[harsh abyss]

i got it

[slate swan]

how can i make a util which returns X based on what i input eg:

content = "--do ban --do kick"
util.args(content, "--do")```
i want to make it return **ban** anyone know how i can do this

[rare saddle]

???

[visual island]

dpy v2.0 or external lib?

if dpy, use view kwarg

[slate swan]

likely an external lib

its 2.0

[rare saddle]

dpy v2.0

[slate swan]

lol

[slate swan]

then u can use components=

u need to use view=

and then u need to make a class for ur button view

not me lol

what

[slate swan]

you replied to me

[slate swan]

a subclass

[slate swan]

oh 😭

[slate swan]

youll have to view the class

i replied to the wrong person

lol

[harsh abyss]

it dosent say hello when i join

or goodbye when i leave

[slate swan]

brah

[harsh abyss]

what

[slate swan]

u have so many problems in that code

[harsh abyss]

how it works perfectly so far

except the goodbye and hello prat

part

[slate swan]

just saying you should use aiottp

[harsh abyss]

im just watching a video on how to create my first bot

[slate swan]

and not request

yeah because requests isnt async

yep

[slate swan]

and dont do this read python docs & dpy docs

[harsh abyss]

so switch requests with aiottp

[slate swan]

!pypi aiohttp

[unkempt canyon]

aiohttp v3.8.1

Async http client/server framework (asyncio)

[slate swan]

yep since dpy is an async lib

[harsh abyss]

can i still just do the aiottp.aiottp

or is it diffrent

[slate swan]

its a bit different

[harsh abyss]

okay

[slate swan]

check the docs

https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/

[harsh abyss]

so instead of request.request it would be aiohttp.ClientSession()

[slate swan]

yep

[harsh abyss]

will that fix my problem

with the hello and goodbye

[slate swan]

prob not but it will help ur bot run better

[harsh abyss]

okay

[slate swan]

it will not block the code

[rare jolt]

My discord bot controls a UI, so on my main thread I start a tk window and then fork off a thread to run the bot. I pass to that thread a reference to an object with methods that the bot can call to trigger things on the UI. I'm getting a really confusing error from the bot's thread.

Exception in thread TheClicker:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\m\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\threading.py", line 973, in _bootstrap_inner

    return self.tk.call(self._w, 'cget', '-' + key)
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

the place my bot thread starts is here:

    root = tk.Tk()
    player = ChannelSurfTk(root, rng, playlist)
    def OnClose():
        global exit_code
        player.OnClose()
        exit_code=EXIT_USER
    import threading
    from time import sleep

        target=discord.main,
        name='TheClicker',
        args=(player), kwargs={},
        daemon=True
    ).start()

and discord.main is

def main(ui_hooks):
    print("here0")
    return DiscordChannelsurf(ui_hooks, cfg.TOKEN)

but not even "here0" is being printed. I can't figure out what is causing cget to be called with an incorrect parameter. The bot doesn't even call any tk methods, I commented out the few places it uses ui_hooks while trying to debug this.

Why am I getting an error if I reinstalled the library with version 1.7.3?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/343944376055103488/921565130586751027/unknown.png

After all, 1.7.3 components should work

[heavy folio]

how do i get the bot's role

[slate swan]

how can i get a commands required permissions?

[boreal ravine]

dont use 3rd party libs, they kinda break dpy instead use a fork of dpy or use dpy 2.0

[rare saddle]

How to send buttons in dpy 2.0?

[slate swan]

how to make the buttons line up?

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

does interaction have all the attrs that ctx has?

[pliant gulch]

No

[boreal ravine]

i mean if you want ctx just pass an argument to the class

[slate swan]

ic thank you ill search up docs to see all of them

[slate swan]

yeah ik

how can I edit Embed from msg in msg2?

    msg = await ctx.send(
        embed = discord.Embed(title = 'Выбирите язык\nSelect language', timestamp = ctx.message.created_at),
        components = [
                    [Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'Русский'),
                    Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'English')]
                ])
    responce = await bot.wait_for('button_click', check = lambda message: message.author == ctx.author)
    if responce.component.label == 'Русский':
      msg2 = await ctx.send(
          embed = discord.Embed(title = '', timestamp = ctx.message.created_at),
          components = [
                      [Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'Русский'),
                      Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'English')]
                  ])

i tried with msg.edit() but it not work

[cloud dawn]

Save the object

You did so it will be msg2 not msg

[vague grove]

yo guys, how can my bot fetch when someone joins vc, and liek their id or name

[manic wing]

!d discord.on_voice_state_update || member = member. Where member is an instance of discord.Member. name, id = member.name, member.id

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_voice\_state\_update

discord.on_voice_state_update(member, before, after)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") changes their [`VoiceState`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.VoiceState "discord.VoiceState").

The following, but not limited to, examples illustrate when this event is called...

[vague grove]

gotcha

[vague grove]

is before and after option args?

[unborn steppe]

I just finished making a bot that checks for Steam sales. I wanted to make it public on GitHub but I don’t know how to hide my token. Can someone help?

[manic wing]

no, has to be async def on_voice_state_update(member, before, after

[vague grove]

alr

[manic wing]

are you proficient with github?

[slate swan]

just dont post the token or use an env file or just be a weirdo like me and use a py file to import the var lol

[unborn steppe]

Not really

I just started using it

[manic wing]

you can make a file just called hidden.py, put token in it and import the token into main file from it. before pushing, make a file called .gitignore and just put hidden.py in it

[unborn steppe]

Alright, thanks.

[manic wing]

this will stop the hidden.py from being pushed to the repository - but code will still work fine

[unborn steppe]

Yeah I know enough to understand gitignore but I didn’t know if something more complicated would be needed

[manic wing]

nope that should be all

just from hidden import TOKEN where TOKEN is a variable in hidden.py

client/bot.run(token)

[visual island]

utils.get

[vague grove]

how can I move members into a different vc w/ the bot?

[heavy folio]

!d discord.Member.move_to

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.move\_to

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

Moves a member to a new voice channel (they must be connected first).

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

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member.edit "discord.Member.edit").

Changed in version 1.1: Can now pass `None` to kick a member from voice.

[slate swan]

why when the bot switches to 2 if it gives such an error?

    msg_1 = await ctx.send(
        embed = discord.Embed(title = 'Выбирите язык\nSelect language', timestamp = ctx.message.created_at),
        components = [
                    [Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'Русский'),
                    Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'English')]
                ])
    responce = await bot.wait_for('button_click', check = lambda message: message.author == ctx.author)
    if responce.component.label == 'Русский':
      msg2 = await msg_1.edit(
          embed = discord.Embed(title = '2', timestamp = ctx.message.created_at),
          components = [
                      [Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'Русский'),
                      Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'English')]

    await member.add_roles(role)```

how could i make it so that it gives a user two roles when they join?

i dont think i've done it correctly

[boreal ravine]

give two roles

[weary gale]

how lol

[boreal ravine]

the same way you gave/got the first role

[weary gale]

do i just clone the role - member line

=*

[boreal ravine]

yes

ok thx

[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`.

whats for the path? do i specify the file name

no you can leave it ambiguous

[slate swan]

isnt their something to reload a cog?

i think it was self.bot.reload_extention(cog)

it unloads and loads a cog if irrc

[jade tartan]

Well do you know whats the code for loads and unloads?

[slate swan]

why?

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.reload_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.reload\_extension

reload_extension(name, *, package=None)```
Atomically reloads an extension.

This replaces the extension with the same extension, only refreshed. This is equivalent to a [`unload_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension") followed by a [`load_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension") except done in an atomic way. That is, if an operation fails mid-reload then the bot will roll-back to the prior working state.

[heavy folio]

how do i get the bot's integration role

[jade tartan]

Nvm

the bot isnt responding to my command

@commands.is_owner()
async def reload(self, ctx, cog: str):
    try:
        self.bot.reload_extention(cog)
    except Exception as e:
        await ctx.send("Could not reload cog")
        return
    await ctx.send("Cog reloaded")```

[heavy folio]

any errors

[slate swan]

show the class

[jade tartan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "reload" is not found```

    def setup(client):
        client.add_cog(TestCog(client))
        print(f"Background is loaded")```

[slate swan]

its not indented well

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.Guild.self_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.self\_role

property self_role: Optional[discord.role.Role]```
Gets the role associated with this client’s user, if any.

New in version 1.6.

[slate swan]

they should be indented by 4 spaces

[heavy folio]

oh thanks

also

embed.add_field(name="Description", value=[cog.description if cog.description else "No description provided."], inline=False)
```im using this for so it takes the cog's description if there is one, else it'll be "No description provided", for some reason this is the output:

[jade tartan]

Which one needs it?

All?

[slate swan]

yes

[west escarp]

use () instead of []

Or use an or expression

!e ```py

description = "test"
print(description or "default")
description = None
print(description or "default")

[unkempt canyon]

@west escarp :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | test
002 | default

[slate swan]

should look like this

class TestCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client


    @commands.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def reload(self, ctx, cog: str):
        try:
            self.client.reload_extention(cog)
        except Exception as e:
            await ctx.send("Could not reload cog")
            return
        await ctx.send("Cog reloaded")

    def setup(client):    
        client.add_cog(TestCog(client))
        print(f"Background is loaded")

[slate swan]

shouldn't it be self.client.reload.... inside the command?

And the setup outside the class

well yes but im to lazy🧍‍♂️

done happy?

not yet

[slate swan]

to bad

[woven flint]

how'd i convert the member.created_at datatime value to how long ago it was?

[slate swan]

subtract it from datetime.now() to get a timedelta object , it will tell how long ago it was

[woven flint]

okay ill try it

[heavy folio]

oh tysm

[woven flint]

TypeError: can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes

[heavy folio]

also is it possible for me to override the global command error handler

[woven flint]

just like i thought lol

[heavy folio]

cuz for commands.MissingRequiredArgument, in the global handler it'll do ctx.send_help(ctx.command) but for a specific command i dont want that to happen

[pliant gulch]

iirc, you can just do @command.error

Decorate a method which you use to handle it

Can just pass to ignore

[heavy folio]

thanks

[slate swan]

Oh , you're using 2.x+ , convert member.created_at to an offset aware datetime object

Or just use a Unix timestamp tbh

https://github.com/sarthak-py/kakashi/blob/main/kakashi/cogs/info.py#L107 as in here

[unkempt canyon]

kakashi/cogs/info.py line 107

'Joined Server' : f"{member.joined_at.strftime('%d %B %Y')}`​ <t:{int(member.joined_at.timestamp())}:R> `​{position+1}/{ctx.guild.member_count}",```

[jade tartan]

Yeah my code aint working

the cog file aint working

[slate swan]

Problem?

[heavy folio]

yeah that's better

[maiden fable]

Do u know u can also do utils.format_dt()?

With time.time() returning the current unix time

[jade tartan]

no error code

[cerulean osprey]

So Im trying to make a simple thing that makes the bot greet you when you say "hello" and its name. As of right now.. I have this

if msgl.startswith('hello chimera') or msgl.startswith('hi chimera'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Hello! What is your name?')
        print('Check 1')

        def check(m):
            return m.content == 'hello' and m.channel == channel
        print('Nice')
        msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)
        await channel.send(f'Hello {msg}!')
        print('Check 2')
``` Naturally the prints are to see exactly where its going wrong. It printed both "Check 1" and "Nice" but not "Check 2".. what am I doing wrong?

[slate swan]

Oh, that's pretty much of old code from 1.7 , was it added in v2 ?

[slate swan]

Show code...

[maiden fable]

Yups. Iirc it takes a datetime object

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

discord.utils.format_dt(dt, /, style=None)```
A helper function to format a [`datetime.datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "(in Python v3.9)") for presentation within Discord.

This allows for a locale-independent way of presenting data using Discord specific Markdown...

[maiden fable]

Tho it takes a datetime object, in disnake, we modified it to take in an int too

[slate swan]

oh I see , I'll update it later

[jade tartan]

yeah cogs aint working

[slate swan]

I asked for code.....

[maiden fable]

Not a code problem

[slate swan]

You could just do😭

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith("hello"):
        await message.channel.send(f"hello {message.author.mention}")

[maiden fable]

He selected the option Run as Python Module

[slate swan]

You setup function is inside the class

[jade tartan]

for filename in os.listdir(path='.'):
    if filename.endswith("Cogs1.py"):
        client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}")

[slate swan]

Move it outside

[cerulean osprey]

I could, but Im trying to learn wait_for

[slate swan]

Ah i see pretty easy

[cerulean osprey]

I hope so, I feel like it could be useful in the future

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

[cerulean osprey]

Is wait for a coro?

Cant remember

[visual island]

[slate swan]

Ok

[slate swan]

too many mistakes lmao check the docs

[slate swan]

why is it named wait_for then

[maiden fable]

Bruh

[slate swan]

🕴️

[maiden fable]

He was just asking if u await it or not

[slate swan]

view.wait() isnt a coro

[slate swan]

Right😨

Jk ik it isnt

[visual island]

it isn't?

[slate swan]

No

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ui.View.wait

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.wait

await wait()```
Waits until the view has finished interacting.

A view is considered finished when [`stop()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.ui.View.stop "discord.ui.View.stop") is called or it times out.

[maiden fable]

There (:

[visual island]

yea it makes no sense if it isn't a coro

[slate swan]

Wait it is

await​ ​view​.​wait​()

[maiden fable]

I told Gangster his problem but okay

[shadow wraith]

☠️

[slate swan]

🕴️

[shadow wraith]

🕴️

[jade tartan]

Whatever am not doing cogs

this is too complicated

[shadow wraith]

ok then give code

bru

☠️

[maiden fable]

@jade tartan just do python main.py or whatever your bot file name id

[slate swan]

🕴️

[shadow wraith]

my man it's a module not found error 😂 idk whats the module

[slate swan]

🕴️

[shadow wraith]

[slate swan]

Im always lurking

[shadow wraith]

never showed the issue itself

[slate swan]

🕴️

[shadow wraith]

the traceback, was the ssl certificate

but i fixed it

[maiden fable]

You know... I know what I am doing, soo I think u should just wait (:

[jade tartan]

well it isnt that it does that when i come and run the code

thats what the file directory writes at like that

[shadow wraith]

ok but what is the module name?

[jade tartan]

nothing

my file name is bot.py

[shadow wraith]

☠️

[jade tartan]

[jade tartan]

and vs

[shadow wraith]

wait you didn't know basic python from the start 🕴️

[jade tartan]

[shadow wraith]

then why uninstall python

[slate swan]

I was born knowing py

[shadow wraith]

python never gets old

[slate swan]

Kinda does😔

[shadow wraith]

if there was a extension in vscode where if you had an error it would give you a stack overflow link that'd be awesome

[quick gust]

peak level of laziness

[slate swan]

Make it yourself

[shadow wraith]

your right

peak level of laziness

[slate swan]

We know you would use it

[quick gust]

no

[shadow wraith]

lie of the day

[slate swan]

Yep

[shadow wraith]

i'd use it tho ☠️

[slate swan]

I wouldn't cuz im to good🕴️

[shadow wraith]

i wouldn't use stack overflow for forgetting a bracket 💀

go to #ot0-psvm’s-eternal-disapproval before we get killed

[slate swan]

Trust

[tough lance]

Lol

[frail mesa]

Hello, could anyone take a look at this and tell me what I'm doing wrong?

import discord,os
from keep_alive import keep_alive
from discord.ext import tasks

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
  global members
  guild = client.get_guild(757463397683036200)
  role = guild.get_role(793942123627282452)
  members = [member for member in guild.members if role in member.roles]

@tasks.loop(seconds=120)
async def check_role():
  global members
  guild = client.get_guild(757463397683036200)
  role = guild.get_role(793942123627282452)
  members = [member for member in guild.members if role in member.roles]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.author == client.user:
    return
  
  if message.content.startswith('!scosa'):
      try:
        await message.channel.send(os.getenv('VerifiedBMHour') + ' +9 in 30 minutes hosted by ' + os.getenv('scosa') + '!')
      except:
        await message.channel.send('Only Admins have permission to use this command.')
        return

The command works, but it's not locked behind the role it should be, and I have no idea why

[shadow wraith]

import os

[slate swan]

they did

[shadow wraith]

true

[slate swan]

dont use discord.Client for making commands

[shadow wraith]

use commands.Bot()

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_role you can use this to check if member has role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_role

@discord.ext.commands.has_role(item)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

If the message is invoked in a private message context then the check will return `False`.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") if the user is missing a role, or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure")

[slate swan]

if you use the Bot commands constructor

[tough lance]

Also start the task with task.start()

[boreal ravine]

your weird sometimes

[tough lance]

Sometimes?

[quick gust]

doing what sarthak said would still be better and cleaner

[slate swan]

why when the bot switches to 2 if it gives such an error?

    msg_1 = await ctx.send(
        embed = discord.Embed(title = 'Выбирите язык\nSelect language', timestamp = ctx.message.created_at),
        components = [
                    [Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'Русский'),
                    Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'English')]
                ])
    responce = await bot.wait_for('button_click', check = lambda message: message.author == ctx.author)
    if responce.component.label == 'Русский':
      msg2 = await msg_1.edit(
          embed = discord.Embed(title = '2', timestamp = ctx.message.created_at),
          components = [
                      [Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'Русский'),
                      Button(style = ButtonStyle.blue, label = 'English')]
                  ])

[upbeat otter]

Is the embed changing?

[slate swan]

Yes

[upbeat otter]

Hmm, Interesting

[slate swan]

the stuff you want to do works right?

[slate swan]

yes

it happens because interaction is not responded when you click the button

you can just make an ephermeal response sayin button is clicked or something to avoid it

[slate swan]

I didn't understand how.

[slate swan]

help?

[sullen shoal]

looks like you have to defer it

[slate swan]

Myxi you havent been here in a while hows it going

[sullen shoal]

i used to get that kind of error later when i deferred it, it workef fine

[sullen shoal]

pretty well

[slate swan]

Thats nice

[sullen shoal]

how bout you

[slate swan]

Better

[sullen shoal]

i made some crap api wrapper

[slate swan]

What api?

[sullen shoal]

somerandomapi.ml

[slate swan]

Never heard of it

[slate swan]

what do you mean?

[sullen shoal]

idk, use a good fork like disnake, it could be just an issue with whatever you're using

maybe they're handling it wrong

or outdated

we use defer when it will take more than 3 seconds to respond

however in your case it doesn't seem to take more than 3 seconds

[slate swan]

why do you write with riddles?

[sullen shoal]

if all you want are ui elements except application commands, use discord.py 2.0

[timber crescent]

Can someone confirm what happens when I tryna use the same bot token twice?

Like simultaneously
