I thought this was a message counter but I must be wrong

#

Yea I read wrong

slate swan
heavy radish
#

Alr. What should I do now?

slate swan
#

your done lol

#

Ruu can anyone help me with some py error?

slate swan
#

im learning py, like basics

heavy radish
#

Let me test it

#

welp

potent spear
#

there's not even a loop break or anything πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

heavy radish
slate swan
#

πŸƒ

potent spear
#

don't run now, you'll tell him

heavy radish
#

Lmao

#

It's counting

#

Very slow

slate swan
potent spear
heavy radish
potent spear
#

some requests can for example be only made every 10 mins etc

heavy radish
#

What is it for this?

#

Alr, what's a safe time gap?

potent spear
#

just don't count, that's useless asf

heavy radish
#

I want too tho..

potent spear
#

I'd say maybe every 30 secs, edit the message
but have a limit of like 10

#

so it'll only count till 10

pliant gulch
#

Message sending ratelimit is 5/5s

#

Global ratelimit is 50/1s

#

As of speaking right now at least

potent spear
#

well, and counting that shit will make it very close to that limit
think about 10 users using that command at the same time

#

boom, ratelimited in no-time

#

fix= use a cooldown on certain commands etc

heavy radish
#

This bot is literally useless. It's the only command and it will only be counting in a channel

#

Just for the sake of it

potent spear
#

best thing you could do, is something like this

heavy radish

#

choose and win

heavy radish
#

What's happening?

potent spear
#

nothing, those are just ways of displaying certain times

pliant gulch
#

Either way, so as long as you don't go above 50 requests a second discord.py will handle the ratelimit buckets

#

If a bucket is depleted it will wait until it is filled back up

heavy radish
slate swan
pliant gulch
#

No 1/1s

#

I'm just saying 5/5s because that's how the response headers show it

potent spear
slate swan
heavy radish
#

Lmao

pliant gulch
slate swan
heavy radish
potent spear
pliant gulch
# slate swan ah ic

Ratelimits are a bit different in discord though it's just just a straight 5/5s

#

Because you also have ratelimit buckets

#

E.g if I send a message in a diff channel it will have a different bucket

#

If it werent for buckets the bot would be limited to sending messages in one channel at a time if it's a lot of messages

slate swan
#

ic

#

thats cool

pliant gulch
#

Well logically it's the most sense thing to implment

#

Otherwise you'd be bottlenecking

potent spear
#

for sure, would suck if one loser spammed the bot in 1 guild and ALL the other guilds suffer from it

slate swan
#

yeah

potent spear
#

anyways, if you put cooldowns on that, that won't even happen
it would just be a problem if your bot became big

pliant gulch
#

No not really

#

It's more lenient

#

Bigger bots have different ratelimits

#

They get allowed more requests

potent spear
#

I personally just use bots to make stuff easily accessible for my phone as well as my PC by using API's
I'm not using them for public purposes. But it's always handy to know the possibilities

#
  • public transport schedules
  • twitch streamer schedules
  • ebay~ish notify tool the second a new item is listed with given query and specifications
  • automating daily tasks and monitoring them, ...
cold torrent
#

no idts

#

it can work for only one person

#

but it won't work in grp DM's

#

because you can't invite bots in grp dms

potent spear
#

yes

#

by using a global check

#

global check in the dpy docs will tell you

#

you can make the bot notify users in a guild (when they try to use a command) that it can only be used in DM's tho
lots of options

slate swan
#

kinda gave me ideas ngl thank you

potent spear
#

I just searched for a notifying system that could be used for my PC and mobile phone.
whatsapp and fb etc weren't option, then I stumbled upon discord and here we are, a few yrs later

#

I wanted to make it public, but found that discord isn't really user-friendly for users with no coding background: commands etc are a no-go.
but nowadays with the buttons, select options and slash commands (which basically can't be more clear), I might give it another shot someday

slate swan

pliant gulch
#

Idk why there are so many names for it

slate swan
#

i thought they were called that

pliant gulch
#

But on the official discord docs its select menu

potent spear
#

I'm staying on dpy v1.7.3 for now, and I don't go indept in any other fork or version or whatever

slate swan
pliant gulch
#

Would be better for SelectMenu

slate swan
potent spear
#

dropdown reminds me of HTML

#

just integrate what discord calls them (in their API), can't be too hard...

slate swan
unkempt canyonBOT
#

examples/views/select/dropdown.py line 10

class Dropdown(disnake.ui.Select):```
slate swan
#

^see

#

but yes the class is named Select

#

Inside the folder named select πŸ”ͺ

slate swan

I mean, discord seems to be publiclly trying to eliminate bots imo Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

pulsar jewel
#

I don't want to interupt the discussion that is going on here, but I have a question loosely related to bots.

I'm currently in the process of learning python (I'm using the Python Crash Course 2nd edition by Eric Matthes [currently on chapter 5]). The first few 'large' projects I want to build are discord bots. I'm not looking for any help with code at the moment, but more pathway wise. Should I be looking into the processes of coding a bot while still being such a beginner?

For reference, I really only know the basic basics of writing anything. Only having mild experience with for loops and going somewhat in depth with print, lists, and variables.

slate swan
#

Imagine emojis as a privelaged intent

potent spear
pliant gulch
#

Naw, imagine connecting to the gateway as a privileged intent

pliant gulch
slate swan
#

imagine making api calls a privileged intent

slate swan

patent lark
pulsar jewel
#

Python is actually my first real experience with programming, I've dabbled a bit with HTML and CSS, but I wouldn't consider that to be on the same level.

slate swan
pliant gulch
#

I remember the good old days when bots didn't exist and you had to use a user account via email and password, not even token

potent spear
# pulsar jewel Thanks I assume πŸ˜…

listen, if you want to start with libs that change often, don't follow YT tutorials about those subjects
they will maybe give you a grasp of what you can do, but they will affect your coding style by making you implement methods that mostly aren't good or are only for one purpose.

pliant gulch
slate swan
slate swan
#

Imagine using that these days

pulsar jewel
potent spear
#

that's v1, no?

pliant gulch
#

prob Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

#

My first discord account was back in 2015 something

potent spear
pulsar jewel
#

Awesome, I appreciate all the insight you guys have given!

potent spear
#

you don't want to implement a method that just works, you want to do it good on the first try
temporarily fixing something stinks

pliant gulch
#

Good tutorial written by a competent coder

slate swan
#

!pep8 this can help a bit with your coding style

unkempt canyonBOT
#

PEP 8 is the official style guide for Python. It includes comprehensive guidelines for code formatting, variable naming, and making your code easy to read. Professional Python developers are usually required to follow the guidelines, and will often use code-linters like flake8 to verify that the code they're writing complies with the style guide.

More information:
β€’ PEP 8 document
β€’ Our PEP 8 song! :notes:

pulsar jewel
#

I did have someone recommend code wars to me, but the site seems more geared toward someone at a little bit of a higher level than I'm at right now.

potent spear
#

make sure your project has a purpose tho, you don't want to blindly work on something.
we get bored quickly

pliant gulch
#

You also won't be able to set your client's connection state

#

E.g being "connected"

#

As that's only on the gateway

pulsar jewel
#

My main field of interest is infosec, so I'd be looking to make it have some features semi related to the field, stuff like whois, tracert, etc.

pliant gulch
#

A virustotal command maybe?

pulsar jewel
#

Of course I'll try to have some 'fun' features, but it's not the main focus, but moreso to learn.

pulsar jewel
potent spear
#

if you know basic python, and you know how to read documentation, you're on a good path

pliant gulch
potent spear
#

he doesn't know how to use API's via python tho I think

pulsar jewel
#

Maybe a command that translates shortened URLs too

potent spear
#

mhm, that's like 2 lines of code

pulsar jewel
#

(I don't know most things about python yet)

potent spear
#

if you know what you're looking for, you'll get helpful answers

#

questions like "I need help with my code" or "it's not working" are trash

#

"doesn't work" is equally as bad

pliant gulch
#

When you get to requests just make sure to use an async library for requests, E.g aiohttp httpx's AsyncClient

potent spear
#

that's the async part of dpy πŸ™‚

pulsar jewel
#

Right, I've always been one to try to find why something isn't working, and then search for help if I'm not sure of the solution.

potent spear
pulsar jewel
#

I'm still learning at the moment, so my code is pretty messy. My most recent lab was to make two lists, then append them a few times, then do a for loop to print a message about the items in the lists.

potent spear
#

don't waste too much time on simple errors, especially if you're a beginner, ask for help as much as possible

pulsar jewel
#

There was a bit of slice work thrown in too. I feel like I'm moving at a snails pace, but I am definitely enjoying myself so far.

#

I appreciate that!

potent spear
pliant gulch
#

I was total opposite and I just crammed everything in all at once πŸ˜”

#

Worked tho

pulsar jewel
#

Codecademy used to be really useful too from what I've heard, but now all of their good stuff is locked behind a paywall too.

potent spear
#

simple examples mostly have a "test" at the bottom

#

a small exercise on that subject
nvm, I'm talking about w3schools

pulsar jewel
#

I'm not opposed to getting courses on Udemy, but it's a bit sketchy for me to spend money on a course without having some preview or something to know if it's worth the purchase.

pliant gulch
#

Code Academy is totally unbearable for me

#

I just read project source codes on github and the documentation on python

potent spear
#

A lil stackoverflow here and there hasn't killed anyone yet, but that's a last resort for me

slate swan
#

i mostly learned by annoying andypithink

pulsar jewel
potent spear
#

also, I highly suggest you to learn shortcuts (in the IDE), they're lifesavers if you can make them muscle memory

slate swan

Vim keybinds total icing on cake 😳

I'm using pycharm with a couple of custom keybindings for run and new file, but I haven't explored many other IDEs

potent spear
slate swan
pliant gulch
#

No just go into command and type q

final iron
pliant gulch
#

Not that hard lmao

final pumice
slate swan
final pumice
#

and just move on to pycord

slate swan
#

no

#

move to disnake

final iron
final pumice
#

is it better than pycord?

slate swan
#

yes

final pumice
#

ok ill look into it

pliant gulch
#

Pycord is prob the worst fork out there

slate swan
pliant gulch
#

No

potent spear
pliant gulch
slate swan
potent spear
pliant gulch
#

I can also do that

pulsar jewel
#

I've seen mention of it on startup everytime, and know what it means, but don't exactly know what it does and why it's important.

pliant gulch
#

Except my OS doesn't have a built in keylogger

#

Not to mention HELLA telemetry

slate swan
#

πŸƒ

potent spear
final pumice
#

does disnake use slash commands : (

slate swan
#

yes

final pumice
#

but i can still make classic commands?

final iron
#

Yes

slate swan
#

yes why wouldnt you?

final pumice
#

πŸ™‚

pliant gulch
#

Pycharm venv is just over the top tbh

#

Just use poetry or something

final iron
#

Pycharm venv?

#

Pycharm has a built in virtual environment?

pliant gulch
#

No??

potent spear
#

that's standard

#

a virtual environment

pliant gulch
#

They force it as well iirc?

#

Kek

potent spear
#

it's default, mhm

final iron
#

I just use anacondaπŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈ

potent spear
#

first thing devs come crying about "module not found"

pliant gulch
#

Ananconda lmao

#

Poetry on top

final iron
#

What

#

It work doe

#

I can't spell for shit tonight

potent spear
#

I like portable projects, always have
I can't stand it if I were to see errors on a different OS

pulsar jewel
#

Another general question, what's the general opinion on "Automate the Boring Stuff". I saw that it's published for free online and I was considering adding it to my list.

potent spear
#

I assume that would be Linux?

#

is that still Python?

pulsar jewel
#

it is, yeah

#

It's just a general educational book. It's published free on a website with the same name

potent spear
#

hmm, you don't have to read books per se
I rather like exercises

pulsar jewel
#

That's true too, but since I'm just starting out I really don't know enough to do many exercises in a productive way

final iron
#

Finally, it works

potent spear
#

well, you'll have to find some kind of website to generate exercises for you

#

I used edabit, but you'll stumble upon a paywall one day, it's a great starter tho

pulsar jewel
#

Yeah, I was looking at codewars, but they were a bit more advanced than I am at the beginner level.

potent spear
#

you can select which difficulty of exercise you want etc

pliant gulch
#

You can do all solutions in python

pulsar jewel
#

I'll look into edabit real quick, and advent if I'm able.

potent spear
#

don't forget to unsubscribe from the email list, those always sucked

final iron
#

Anyone have any idea why discord returns member as None in their Message Reaction Remove gateway? (on_raw_message_remove event)

pliant gulch
final iron
#

I am aware, I'm asking on more a technical reason

pliant gulch
#

I don't think it's a discord.py thing rather a discord gateway thing

#

They just don't send out that data

final iron
#

Do they have a reason listed why anywhere or do they just do what they want without giving a reason?

#

I don't see it listed anywhere in the docs

#

get_or_fetch_member is a pretty nice disnake feature imo

pliant gulch
#

I'd assume it's like delete message, discord will send out a partial message object

#

There is no apparent reason? At least not publically

#

But partial models in itself omit certain data

final iron
#

Thanks

#

The more you know

timber crescent
#

how to change server avatar of bot to imitate initiator of cmd?

boreal ravine
unkempt canyonBOT
#
discord.ClientUser.edit 

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

Edits the current profile of the client.

Note

To upload an avatar, a [bytes-like object](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-bytes-like-object "(in Python v3.9)") must be passed in that represents the image being uploaded. If this is done through a file then the file must be opened via `open('some_filename', 'rb')` and the [bytes-like object](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-bytes-like-object "(in Python v3.9)") is given through the use of `fp.read()`.

The only image formats supported for uploading is JPEG and PNG.

Changed in version 2.0: The edit is no longer in-place, instead the newly edited client user is returned.
boreal ravine
#

you cant edit server avatars yet, you can only edit your global one

timber crescent
#

how would i go about using a link as the argument for the avatar?

#

rather how would i get a users avatar first?

maiden fable
#

!d discord.Member.avatar

unkempt canyonBOT
#
discord.Member.avatar 

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

!d discord.Asset.url

unkempt canyonBOT
maiden fable
#

(:

boreal ravine
#

it only takes a bytes-like object

#

not a string/URL

pliant gulch
#

Make a request using aiohttp or any other async http library to the avatar url. Then use .read() on the response to get the bytes

timber crescent
#

could you write out how we make a request?(sry very new TwT)

boreal ravine
unkempt canyonBOT
#
discord.Asset.read 

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

Retrieves the content of this asset as a [`bytes`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes "(in Python v3.9)") object.
pliant gulch
boreal ravine
#

yes

timber crescent
#

so i would use

await edit(*, username=..., avatar=ctx.author.avatar.read)

yes?

slate swan
#

!d discord.Member

unkempt canyonBOT
#
discord.Member 

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

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

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

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

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

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

but yes

#

you use that method on your bot instance

#

it from from the ClientUser class

#

use the edit method on your discord.ClientUser instance

timber crescent
#

sorry i didnt get that could you rephrase my syntax how its intended to be used?

pliant gulch
#

It's not an attribute it's a method

boreal ravine
timber crescent
#

so bot.edit ye?

pliant gulch
#

bot is the client, not the user of the client

#

!d discord.Client.user

unkempt canyonBOT
#
discord.Client.user 

property user: Optional[discord.user.ClientUser]```
Represents the connected client. `None` if not logged in.

what is the unload counterpart of setup() in dpy extensions?

slate swan
slate swan
#

orrrrr wdym

green dust
#

no, generally function naming scheme

slate swan
#

ah well im not sure

maiden fable
#

There's none

green dust
#

like, every dpy ext has setup()

maiden fable
#

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension u gotta use this

unkempt canyonBOT
#
discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload\_extension 

unload_extension(name, *, package=None)```
Unloads an extension.

When the extension is unloaded, all commands, listeners, and cogs are removed from the bot and the module is un-imported.

The extension can provide an optional global function, `teardown`, to do miscellaneous clean-up if necessary. This function takes a single parameter, the `bot`, similar to `setup` from [`load_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension").
slate swan
green dust
#

yes i am aware of it

slate swan
#

add a cog != load a cog

maiden fable
#

Yea

green dust
#

tq anyway

#

so its teardown

maiden fable
#

Huh?

green dust
#

what will happen if one tries to load a dpy ext when it doesnt have setup()

slate swan
green dust
#

noted

slate swan
#

you need to add the cog

timber crescent
#

i am trying to nick bot to the same name as whoever used the command

await discord.ClientUser.edit(nick=str(ctx.author))

slate swan
timber crescent
#

can someone help?

green dust
#

only username

or something

timber crescent
#

oh

slate swan
#

🚢

#

discord.ClientUser represents an object. So use on your object of this instance.

all yours brother🚢

green dust

Haha

slate swan
timber crescent

await discord.ClientUser.edit(username=str(ctx.author))

#

replacing with username i get this error

green dust
#

import dpy extension from installed module

slate swan
#

Again, you need to use on your object. Not on the class.

slate swan
#

need more context

timber crescent
#

my object would be? bot.ClientUser?

slate swan
#

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.user

unkempt canyonBOT
slate swan
#

And you have a discord.ext.commands.Bot object that is likely named bot, or client. Just like when you create commands.

#

So simply bot.user or client.user

green dust
# slate swan need more context

assume you installed a module called meow in your python
you want to load an dpy ext from a python file which is inside meow
something like that

maiden fable
#

My Bot object is named HunAI

slate swan
green dust
#

yep

slate swan
#

You can't load cogs within installed libraries/packages.

green dust
#

so i did it with weird way

timber crescent
#

how can i read a user's nick?

bot can have nick?

Similar to [`Client.user`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.user "discord.Client.user") except an instance of [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member"). This is essentially used to get the member version of yourself.
slate swan
#

Yes a bot can change its own nickname if it has permissions, just like you can change yours.

#

and use .edit(nick=)

timber crescent

Hi is there any code to untimeout someone?

slate swan
timber crescent
#

says guild is not defined ;-;

slate swan
#

!d disnake.Member.timeout

unkempt canyonBOT
#
disnake.Member.timeout 

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

Times out the member from the guild; until then, the member will not be able to interact with the guild.

Exactly one of `duration` or `until` must be provided. To remove a timeout, set one of the parameters to `None`.

You must have the [`Permissions.moderate_members`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.moderate_members "disnake.Permissions.moderate_members") permission to do this.

New in version 2.3.
slate swan

To remove a timeout, set one of the parameters to None.

arctic gyro
#

ohk thx

slate swan

yw

slate swan
# timber crescent oh-

It's always the object and then the attribute. If it's discord.Guild the object and me the attribute, then it's most likely guild.me.

slate swan

use something like ctx.guild or any object u have with a guild property

timber crescent
#

this is what im working with so far

slate swan
#

on_message takes a message argument, not ctx

#

on message does not take context ( ik it works but bad naming convention)

timber crescent
#

ah yes should fix tht

slate swan
#

So it's message.guild.me.edit(...)

#

hey Florianpithink

#

!d discord.Message.guild # Since you can see a message object has a guild attribute

unkempt canyonBOT
slate swan

It's however None in private messages, since the message doesn't belong to a guild.

slate swan
slate swan

And you need to provide a member when executing the command, such as !kick @slate swan

timber crescent
#

duration or until go before the nick argument yes?

#

or order doesnt matter

slate swan
#

It's a different method.

#

disnake.Member.edit() and disnake.Member.timeout()

#

!arg-kwargs @timber crescent

unkempt canyonBOT
#

*args and **kwargs

These special parameters allow functions to take arbitrary amounts of positional and keyword arguments. The names args and kwargs are purely convention, and could be named any other valid variable name. The special functionality comes from the single and double asterisks (*). If both are used in a function signature, *args must appear before **kwargs.

Single asterisk
*args will ingest an arbitrary amount of positional arguments, and store it in a tuple. If there are parameters after *args in the parameter list with no default value, they will become required keyword arguments by default.

Double asterisk
**kwargs will ingest an arbitrary amount of keyword arguments, and store it in a dictionary. There can be no additional parameters after **kwargs in the parameter list.

Use cases
β€’ Decorators (see !tags decorators)
β€’ Inheritance (overriding methods)
β€’ Future proofing (in the case of the first two bullet points, if the parameters change, your code won't break)
β€’ Flexibility (writing functions that behave like dict() or print())

See !tags positional-keyword for information about positional and keyword arguments

timber crescent
# 
    await msg.guild.me.edit(until=None,nick=(msg.author.display_name),)

slate swan
#

As I said, those are different methods.

#

.timeout() != .edit()

So call .timeout() once and.edit() once.

I would disable the feature until you've built a filter. It's not Discord's job to check everything you send.

tiny ibex
slate swan
#

The filter of Discord is very bad

tiny ibex
slate swan
#

You can easily send NSFW messages in SFW channels, so I wouldn't rely on their filter. That's why making yours or removing/limiting the feature is the best.

tiny ibex
#

Hmmm

tiny ibex
#

Without using any API ofc

slate swan
#

Never went into image analysis myself, there is definitely more information on the Internet available. And you have a high chance of having a library/API.

tiny ibex
#

Not good enough uh....

slate swan
#

In the end I'd recommend to use an API otherwise your bot will be slowed.

#

Make your own API that analyses the image.

tiny ibex

Well, there must be multiple guides on how AI and image analysis works ^^

is guild none? you can do guild.get_member

slate swan
#

Then you can use get_member on a guild object, you will need to also use get_guild on the bot object to have that guild object.
You have both, user and guild id given back at all times: payload.user_id and payload.guild_id

If it's not a too big bot , you can use replit
I'll still not suggest using it as your host tho

Messages with colors:

Discord is now slowly rolling out the ability to send colored messages within code blocks. It uses the ANSI color codes, so if you've tried to print colored text in your terminal or console with Python or other languages then it will be easy for you.

To be able to send a colored text, you need to use the ansi language for your code block and provide a prefix of this format before writing your text:

\u001b[{format};{color}m

The \u001b is the unicode for ESCAPE/ESC, see http://www.unicode-symbol.com/u/001B.html. If you want to use it yourself without bots, then you need to copy paste the character from the website.
After you've written this, you can type and text you wish, and if you want to reset the color back to normal, then you need to use \u001b[0m as prefix.

Here is the list of values you can use to replace {format}:
β€’ 0: Normal
β€’ 1: Bold
β€’ 4: Underline

Here is the list of values you can use to replace {color}:
The following values will change the text color.
β€’ 30: Gray
β€’ 31: Red
β€’ 32: Green
β€’ 33: Yellow
β€’ 34: Blue
β€’ 35: Pink
β€’ 36: Cyan
β€’ 37: White
The following values will change the text background color.
β€’ 40: Firefly dark blue
β€’ 41: Orange
β€’ 42: Marble blue
β€’ 43: Greyish turquoise
β€’ 44: Gray
β€’ 45: Indigo
β€’ 46: Light gray
β€’ 47: White

Let's take an example, I want a bold green colored text with the very dark blue background.
I simply use \u001b[0;40m (background color) and \u001b[1;32m (text color) as prefix. Note that the order is important, first you give the background color and then the text color.
Alternatively you can also directly combine them into a single prefix like the following: \u001b[1;40;32m and you can also use multiple values. Something like \u001b[1;40;4;32m would underline the text, make it bold, make it green and have a dark blue background.

That's some cool formatted text right?
That's some cool formatted text right?

Raw message:
```ansi
\u001b[0;40m\u001b[1;32mThat's some cool formatted text right?
\u001b[1;40;32mThat's some cool formatted text right?
```

The way the colors look like on Discord is shown in the image below ^^

Note: If the change as not been brought to you yet, or other users, then you can use other code blocks in the meantime to get colored text. See this gist: https://gist.github.com/matthewzring/9f7bbfd102003963f9be7dbcf7d40e51

#

What library are you using?

slate swan
slate swan
#

I recommend using disnake for slash commands instead of this third party library.

#

or you can use e-discord.py its easier and even follows the name of discordpy so you wont have to change alot shrug it also converts all the commands u want to slash commands without having to implements stupid stuff

#

You should give the GitHub link instead of a Discord server.

#

You can't do anything with a Discord server invite beside joining it and then continue searching, if you give the GitHub link directly people can install it without having you to advertise a Discord server.

oh thats what the f does i alwayss wondered what it did

slate swan

!f-strings

Creating a Python string with your variables using the + operator can be difficult to write and read. F-strings (format-strings) make it easy to insert values into a string. If you put an f in front of the first quote, you can then put Python expressions between curly braces in the string.

>>> snake = "pythons"
>>> number = 21
>>> f"There are {number * 2} {snake} on the plane."
"There are 42 pythons on the plane."

Note that even when you include an expression that isn't a string, like number * 2, Python will convert it to a string for you.

green bluff
#

niceeee also what does the * do

slate swan
#

Here you have a small but good explanation

green bluff
#

thanks

#

what does the * do

slate swan
green bluff
#

thanks

slate swan
#

Here it's explained

#

And if you scroll above you see how it acts without the *

#

or if you do*reason instead of *, reason

slate swan
green bluff
#

wait @slate swan can u do an f string on an embed

slate swan
#

Everywhere, it's Python

#

Whenever you need to provide a string as parameter, you can use f-strings
