[keen talon]

No need to do that now , he is learning

https://c.tenor.com/QLbV11ltA8cAAAAM/smart-thinking.gif

[slate swan]

he asked for it are you ok?

thats why im better

im the anime version of you they all love me

[keen talon]

Lol

[slate swan]

[keen talon]

I didn't read it properly man 😂😂

[slate swan]

yeah yeah excuses

[keen talon]

😬 😬

[slate swan]

[keen talon]

Seriously man

Y would I make a excuse lol

😆 😆

[slate swan]

im joking its alr

[keen talon]

[slate swan]

no no you didnt

its just shorter lol

oh wait @spring flax dont use that thats like ctx.send yours better because your sending a response msg with interaction so thats my fault

[spring flax]

what do you mean?

you mean to use await inter.response.send_message(embed=embed)?

[slate swan]

yes

[spring flax]

what's the difference?

[slate swan]

if your using .send() the coro it doesnt have ephemeral but inter.response.send_message as it says responds to a interaction and does have the ephemeral kwarg so im sorry for that

[spring flax]

i'm pretty sure inter.send(**kwargs, ephemeral=True) works too

[slate swan]

does it?

oh yeah its a interaction attr so it probably does🏃

[spring flax]

yeah just tried

[slate swan]

well yes then it does🏃

[spring flax]

also, can suggest some application user commands?

[slate swan]

commands related to users?

an avatar command is good

and a info command (info about the account)

[spring flax]

how do i do message commands by the way?

[slate swan]

msg commands by?

[spring flax]

application message commands * my bad

[slate swan]

so like slash commands that sends a msg?

[spring flax]

it's not on the examples on the github

[slate swan]

well its just like any command

in this case interaction is your context which i think interaction has all of the attrs of it

[quartz badger]

I have this command and every 20 minutes it sends a new message telling me the correct time on a specific channel. How do I make it so that instead of every 20 minutes it would send a new message, it would edit the message it sent to put the new time?

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_ready(self):
        self.current_time.start()

    @tasks.loop(minutes=20) 
    async def current_time(self):

        now = datetime.datetime.now()
        now = now.strftime("%d/%m/%Y às %H:%M:%S")

        channel = self.bot.get_channel(914569334985216060)

        await channel.send("Data atual: " + now)```

[spring flax]

how do I DM a user with disnake's application commands?

[slate swan]

get the id of the msg

[slate swan]

member.send?

[spring flax]

the arguments are

@bot.message_command()
async def bookmark(inter, message):

it's a disnake message application command

[slate swan]

ah well i cant help much with that but probably send it to the author

!d disnake.Client.get_message

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Client.get\_message

get_message(id)```
Gets the message with the ID from the bot’s message cache.

[slate swan]

for disnake ^

probably the same in dpy

[vale wing]

Not sure but maybe message.author.send()?

[slate swan]

nah nah

interaction has an author attr use it

inter.author.send()

[vale wing]

I think he wants to dm message's author

Why would he need to dm himself lol

[slate swan]

its a bookmark command

so for a bookmark i suppose

[dusk trout]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import DMChannel

mid = "550370780245000200"
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=".", description="Test")


@bot.command(name='dmsend', pass_contect=True)
async def dmsend(ctx):
    user = await bot.fetch_user(mid)
    await DMChannel.send(user, "Test")

@bot.command()
async def replace(ctx):
    return "didnt work"
mid = replace()
print(mid)




bot.run

[vale wing]

Oh

[dusk trout]

Why doesnt my second function redefine mid

[slate swan]

because it returns?

[vale wing]

pass_contect typo just saying

[slate swan]

isnt that deprecated as well

What's the function to kick a member from a channel?

[vale wing]

It's pointless afaik it's set to True by default

[slate swan]

yeah

[vale wing]

From a channel?

[slate swan]

no such thing

[keen talon]

https://c.tenor.com/e5SXFKkK43sAAAAM/nick-young-question-marks.gif

[slate swan]

Yeah

Like remove a member from a channel

[dusk trout]

I removed that

now I get this error

[keen talon]

Voice ?

[vale wing]

You could set send messages permission to false that's the only thing I can think of

[dusk trout]

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Command.call' was never awaited
ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs)
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback
<coroutine object Command.call at 0x000002176D2EE2C0>

[slate swan]

await it

[slate swan]

Huh, 100% I've seen some bots do it

[slate swan]

is it a voice channel

[vale wing]

You didn't await some function

[slate swan]

But nevermind, thanks

🧍‍♂️

[slate swan]

Text channel

[vale wing]

@slate swan you mean thread?

[keen talon]

[slate swan]

[dusk trout]

which ones should I await

if i await mid=replace than it says cant await that function

[vale wing]

I don't see lol, you need full traceback

[slate swan]

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Command.call' was never awaited

[vale wing]

Because it's outside of async expression

[slate swan]

Well not really, but it works with threads?

[dusk trout]

how do I fix that

[vale wing]

I think you can remove members from threads. I'm not sure what do you mean by "kick a member from the channel". Maybe you mean mute them only in that channel?

[keen talon]

You have to learn some serious shit

[slate swan]

no

[keen talon]

😬 😬

[slate swan]

No nevermind, but you can remove members from a thread?

learn async programming

[keen talon]

It is very advanced lol

[vale wing]

If he really needs that lol

[slate swan]

[cold sonnet]

hehe

[dusk trout]

okay but is there any simplier I can make a command to redefine mid

[vale wing]

Yeah I think tell me what lib you use

[slate swan]

disnake

[keen talon]

Btw u can't call a command like that ig

[vale wing]

Alright lemme check, idk much

!d disnake.ThreadMember

[slate swan]

its a global var so just reassign it?

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ThreadMember

class disnake.ThreadMember```
Represents a Discord thread member.

x == y Checks if two thread members are equal.

x != y Checks if two thread members are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the thread member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the thread member’s name.

New in version 2.0.

[dusk trout]

how

[slate swan]

[dusk trout]

like how would I make it a command

[vale wing]

@slate swan ok found it

!d disnake.Thread.remove_user

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Thread.remove\_user

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

Removes a user from this thread.

You must have [`manage_threads`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.manage_threads "disnake.Permissions.manage_threads") or be the creator of the thread to remove a user.

[slate swan]

!e

a = "lol"
print(a)

def function():
    a = "lmao"
    print(a)

function()

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | lol
002 | lmao

[slate swan]

basic py

[slate swan]

Thanks a lot

[vale wing]

Btw if I want to set up voting rewards for top.gg do I really need to build whole API responsible for receiving requests from them (cause I made it but maybe there's an easier method )

[keen talon]

U can use a webhook

Ig

[vale wing]

Webhook on bot's edit page?

I only used it for API purpose

[dusk trout]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import DMChannel

mid = "550370780245000200"
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=".", description="Test")


@bot.command(name='dmsend', pass_contect=True)
async def dmsend(ctx):
    user = await bot.fetch_user(mid)
    await DMChannel.send(user, "Test")

@bot.command()
async def function(ctx):
    print(mid)
    await function()



bot.run

[vale wing]

Like it sends POST req to my API and it does the stuff

[dusk trout]

did I do something wrong

[keen talon]

I didn't read the api yet lol

[slate swan]

Also, how do I create a thread? I've tried looking through discord.Guild methods but can't find anything Oh nevermind, it must be a TextChannel method

[slate swan]

🚶

[vale wing]

Ow recursion

[keen talon]

Mid should be int

[vale wing]

That wouldn't work

Why do you call function from inside the function?

[slate swan]

look down

[slate swan]

hurts

[keen talon]

Where

[slate swan]

the second coro

[keen talon]

Oh

I was looking at the first

[slate swan]

[dusk trout]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import DMChannel

mid = "550370780245000200"
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=".", description="Test")


@bot.command(name='dmsend', pass_contect=True)
async def dmsend(ctx):
    user = await bot.fetch_user(mid)
    await DMChannel.send(user, "Test")

@bot.command()
async def function(ctx):
    int = mid
    print(int)
    await function()



bot.run

[keen talon]

I am doing everything stupidly today

[dusk trout]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: function() missing 1 required positional argument: 'ctx'

[dusk trout]

I can relate

[slate swan]

why are you printing the int class?

[vale wing]

Man don't call function from function

[keen talon]

Lol I think you need to learn python first

[vale wing]

You don't need recursion trust me also you didn't provide ctx

[slate swan]

and why are you setting int to a var?

[dusk trout]

I NEED A BOT COMMAND to reset it

like bro

[keen talon]

@dusk trout when did u learn python

[vale wing]

Uh?

[dusk trout]

how do I get it into an async def format

[keen talon]

?

!d discord.DMChannel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.DMChannel

class discord.DMChannel```
Represents a Discord direct message channel.

x == y Checks if two channels are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the channel’s hash.

str(x) Returns a string representation of the channel

[slate swan]

how is setting a var value so hard

[keen talon]

@slate swan can I know where you are from

[vale wing]

@dusk trout please tell me what do you expect your function command to do

[dusk trout]

well so bsaically I want something like this .function 10 which redifines mid as 10

[keen talon]

He wants it to change the value of mid ig, not sure

[dusk trout]

yes

[slate swan]

why🚶

[keen talon]

Irdk man

[vale wing]

You want to set mid to 10 once the function is called, right?

[keen talon]

Maybe globals

[dusk trout]

yes so like .replace 10 and mid becomes 10

.function 10

[vale wing]

Oh

@bot.command()
async def replace(ctx, new_value: int):
    global mid
    mid = new_value```

Maybe this is what you meant?

[slate swan]

im from orsay city

[keen talon]

@dusk trout reply to me man , when did ya learn python

[dusk trout]

oh sorry I am quite new

[keen talon]

Where is that

[slate swan]

google it

[vale wing]

Then you'd better start with smaller projects rather than discord bot

[keen talon]

I am in bed lol

[vale wing]

It's very complicated trust me

[dusk trout]

Yeah but I am trting to becoem a developer somewhere and this is like their minimum

[slate swan]

so

[keen talon]

Yeah man

[slate swan]

good luck!

[dusk trout]

thanks 🙂

[slate swan]

i belive in you

[keen talon]

All the best 👍

[slate swan]

yup

[dusk trout]

https://tenor.com/view/thank-you-thanks-hey-bro-gif-23739070

[vale wing]

Like personally I got to developing bots after getting enough knowledge about python and even after doing some stuff in pyqt

[keen talon]

U think to much 😆

[slate swan]

❤️

[slate swan]

i love thinking

[keen talon]

Same 👀

[vale wing]

Actually now I forgot everything about pyqt 😩

[keen talon]

https://c.tenor.com/hQ2TUXwgku0AAAAM/johnny-english-rowan-atkinson.gif

[slate swan]

i just jumped to it

[vale wing]

I only remember something like

Triggers?

[slate swan]

was a bad idea but im good now

[vale wing]

Maybe I should learn it again

[keen talon]

You had no guide ig

[slate swan]

yeah

[vale wing]

Me?

[keen talon]

No

[vale wing]

Oh lol

[slate swan]

most people here are self thought

[keen talon]

Don't try to learn something just because u want to learn it at the moment lol

😆 😆

[slate swan]

depends really

[dusk trout]

well the thing is it does redifine mid but still sends me a dm

[keen talon]

U should learn other basic topics related to it

[keen talon]

U got what I meant right

[slate swan]

yeah i did

[keen talon]

https://c.tenor.com/AneNA8nYx1EAAAAM/wow-oh-wow.gif

[slate swan]

[keen talon]

You are a huge pika fan ig

[slate swan]

i have the fat pika card

[keen talon]

Can I dm ?

[slate swan]

[keen talon]

[slate swan]

sure

[vale wing]

Can't disagree lol

[spring flax]

does message attachments fall under message content?

[vale wing]

Currently I want to learn AI and when I see tensorflow examples I am like wtf is this

[keen talon]

😆 😆

[slate swan]

i want to learn more backend lol

[keen talon]

😆 😆

[vale wing]

Library for machine learning

I wonder if

[slate swan]

pretty cool

[keen talon]

U didn't get what I meant

[vale wing]

Nvm I don't even remember it

[vale wing]

Ah I understand now lol

[keen talon]

😆

[vale wing]

😩

[keen talon]

Bye

Cya 👋👋😁

[vale wing]

Bye have a nice day

[keen talon]

https://c.tenor.com/zgs2puzMmSYAAAAM/oh-oh-snap.gif

[slate swan]

How do I get a list of messages in a channel? I know channel.history exists so I tried channel.history().messages but I don't think it's right or maybe I'm doing something wrong?

[potent spear]

the stuff you're doing wrong is not checking the example in the docs

[slate swan]

Mhmmm thanks

[boreal ravine]

nope

Only the message attachments

[knotty cedar]

Can anyone help me?

[boreal ravine]

sure, what is it?

[knotty cedar]

dm?

@boreal ravine

[boreal ravine]

uh

i dont dm help 😶

[knotty cedar]

can i put link here?

it is of replit

[boreal ravine]

yes

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/cogs.html#ext-commands-cogs

[boreal ravine]

^ you should use this

[boreal ravine]

uh

[polar ice]

The code im trying to seperate are just async functions

[slate swan]

well then just use cogs?

[knotty cedar]

https://replit.com/@Shreyansh91/AI-Chat-Bot#index.js
idk why but my bot is not coming online e@boreal ravine

[polar ice]

@slate swanIll take a look using cogs, never used them before 😄

[slate swan]

you just have to make a class and add your commands their and you just add it

[unkempt canyon]

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.

[slate swan]

bad explination so here
https://tutorial.vcokltfre.dev/tutorial/05-cogs/

yeah i think you can

[knotty cedar]

@slate swanCan you help?

[slate swan]

im not sure what that is but i see you sending buttons so i think you can

[slate swan]

sure any errors?

[knotty cedar]

naah

[slate swan]

then whats the problem?

[knotty cedar]

its not coming online 😦

[slate swan]

show the code

[knotty cedar]

https://replit.com/@Shreyansh91/AI-Chat-Bot#index.js

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

[knotty cedar]

click on this and it will redirect you

[slate swan]

ik but i dont want to do it for you

we help here not do it for you

[knotty cedar]

so how could i show code?

[knotty cedar]

@slate swan

[dusk trout]

this is a stupid question but how do I make my bot repeat it slef non stop

so loop

[slate swan]

thats js?

this is a python server?

[honest lintel]

Hey, I've got a simple question
client.get_all_members() doesn't seem to refresh in my while loop. How can I update it's content?

[knotty cedar]

so you can't help?

[quaint epoch]

could you do py await ctx.author.send('direct_message')?

[slate swan]

no

[slate swan]

yes

[quaint epoch]

nice

i should've done that before fetching the authors id

[slate swan]

lol

[knotty cedar]

okk

[vale wing]

Uh could you show your code?

[honest lintel]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    status18 = status24 = False
    while True:
        for member in client.get_all_members():
            # Rortox
            if member.id == 575326754214903818:
                status18 = handle_gpio(member, status18, 18)
            # The Creator
            if member.id == 395614306496020500:
                status24 = handle_gpio(member, status24, 24)
        time.sleep(5)

The member list and all member status information doesn't change when calling client.get_all_members

[vale wing]

I am not sure if you really need this code construction, you could just get_user?

[honest lintel]

You're right, thanks, I'll try this

[vale wing]

Depends on what's inside of your handle_gpio function, it should be like

status18 = handle_gpio(client.get_user(id1), status18, 18) #etc```

If your function requires Member and not User, you might want to get the corresponding instance

[honest lintel]

That's what I need, how can I do that?

[vale wing]

Could you show your handle_gpio function if you don't mind?

[honest lintel]

def handle_gpio(member, status, pin):
    # initialize status
    new_status = status
    if member.status.name != "offline" and not status:
        print("Debug: Outputting True")
        GPIO.output(pin, True)
        new_status = True
    elif member.status.name == "offline" and status:
        print("Debug: Outputting False")
        GPIO.output(pin, False)
        new_status = False
    return new_status

[vale wing]

You don't need Member ig

You could just parse User that you get from client.get_user

[honest lintel]

But User doesn't have a status attribute

[vale wing]

Doesn't it?

Oh you are right

Hold up imma try to resolve this

[honest lintel]

Thanks man

[vale wing]

@honest lintel if there's a guild they both certainly belong to, you could use

client.get_guild(that_guild_id).get_member(id1)```
to get the Member instance, otherwise
```py
client.get_guild(client.get_user(id1).mutual_guilds[0].id).get_member(id1)```
but it is more complicated and I don't think it is right way

[honest lintel]

Yes, I want to do that in a private server where both will be. Thanks, I'll try the first one.

[dusk trout]

hey @vale wing how can I make my code loop non stop

[vale wing]

while loop

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @dusk trout!

Uh-oh! It looks like your message got zapped by our spam filter. We currently don't allow .txt attachments, so here are some tips to help you travel safely:

• If you attempted to send a message longer than 2000 characters, try shortening your message to fit within the character limit or use a pasting service (see below)

• If you tried to show someone your code, you can use codeblocks
(run !code-blocks in #bot-commands for more information) or use a pasting service like:

https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[vale wing]

Like

while True: #or while 1
    print('Hello')```
However infinite loops are bad practice in most of cases. What do you want to loop exactly?

[dusk trout]

bruh

[tall ibex]

while (variable name) == False:

oh

[velvet tinsel]

?

[dusk trout]

import discord
import time
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import DMChannel



while True:
    loop

?\

[vale wing]

The better pseudocode would be

while <condition>:
    #do smth```
I think

[tall ibex]

yh

[vale wing]

Um

loop is not defined

[dusk trout]

loop = loop.loop

was it?

[vale wing]

Sorry I don't quite understand you 😁

[tall ibex]

^

[dusk trout]

what should I define loop as

[vale wing]

First step of creating a code is state what do you expect your code to do

So what do you want the program to do

[dusk trout]

I just want it to do loop my code below

I couldnt send it here

its too long

[vale wing]

Use pastebin

It really matters what you loop and how you loop it in async app. If you loop sending message you will most likely get ratelimited

[dusk trout]

import discord
import time
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import DMChannel


loop =
while True:
    loop

mid = "342036584650113045"
tid = "Insert Id here"
wid = "Insert ID here"
thid = "Insert ID here"
fid = "Insert id here"
suid = "Insert ID here"
satid = "Insert ID here"
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=".", description="Test")


@bot.command(name='dmsend', pass_contect=True)
async def dmsend(ctx):
    mon = await bot.fetch_user(mid)
    tue = await bot.fetch_user(tid)
    wed = await bot.fetch_user(wid)
    thur = await bot.fetch_user(thid)
    fir = await bot.fetch_user(fid)
    said = await bot.fetch_user(satid)
    sunid= await bot.fetch_user(suid)

    await DMChannel.send(sunid, "This is a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")
    await time.sleep(86400)
    await DMChannel.send(mon, "This is a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")
    await time.sleep(86400)
    await DMChannel.send(tue, "This is a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")
    await time.sleep(86400)
    await DMChannel.send(wed, "This is a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")
    await time.sleep(86400)
    await DMChannel.send(thur, "This is a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")
    await time.sleep(86400)
    await DMChannel.send(fir, "This a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")
    await time.sleep(86400)
    await  DMChannel.send(said, "This is a friendly reminder to do your QOTD")


@bot.command()
async def replacemon(ctx, new_value: int):
    global mid
    mid = new_value



@bot.command()
async def replacetue(ctx, new_value: int):
    global tid
    tid = new_value


@bot.command()
async def replacewed(ctx, new_value : int):
    global thid
    thid = new_value

something like this

its goes on longer but

I want this to repeaty

[vale wing]

Oh

There's a better thing for this

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True, loop=...)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[vale wing]

[honest lintel]

Ok, now I'm back at my first issue. It looks like client is some kind of snapshot and represents the state of the guild on initialization.
That means that the Member.status doesn't update in my program when I change it in Discord.
Is there a way to refresh the client so it contains up-to-date Member-data?

[vale wing]

@honest lintel how do you define client?

[honest lintel]

client = discord.Client(intents=intents)

[vale wing]

Wrong way

Use subclass of Client which is Bot:

client = commands.Bot(intents=intents)```
And better rename the variable to `bot`

Maybe that's what's causing your issue

[honest lintel]

Ok, thanks

[honest lintel]

How do I import commands?

[vale wing]

from discord.ext import commands```

[honest lintel]

The status still doesn't update :(

That's my full code now.

import os

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from dotenv import load_dotenv

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(18, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(24, GPIO.OUT)

load_dotenv()

TOKEN = os.getenv("BOT_TOKEN")

intents = discord.Intents.all()

description = "isOnline Bot"

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


def handle_gpio(member, status, pin):
    # initialize status
    new_status = status
    if member.status.name != "offline" and not status:
        print("Debug: Outputting True")
        GPIO.output(pin, True)
        new_status = True
    elif member.status.name == "offline" and status:
        print("Debug: Outputting False")
        GPIO.output(pin, False)
        new_status = False
    return new_status


@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    status18 = status24 = False
    while True:
        rortox = bot.get_guild(928999025708003338).get_member(575326754214903818)
        the_creator = bot.get_guild(928999025708003338).get_member(395614306496020500)
        status18 = handle_gpio(rortox, status18, 18)
        status24 = handle_gpio(the_creator, status24, 24)


bot.run(TOKEN)

[vale wing]

@honest lintel the status that is not updated is member.status?

[honest lintel]

Yes. eg rortox.status doesn't change on iterations, even though I changed it in Discord.

[vale wing]

And I think it would be a better practice to compare like

if member.status != discord.Status.offline``` iirc

[light night]

using on_ready like that is a bad idea, as on_ready is called multiple times
You can always make a starting task, then end it when done

[vale wing]

@honest lintel hold up I see what's wrong now

[honest lintel]

Ok, I'll change that

[vale wing]

Infinite loop in on_ready which causes you to have ratelimit

You make requests to discord API too often ig

You could move it to external loop with certain interval

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True, loop=...)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[vale wing]

If you need usage example feel free to ask me but I think there is one

[honest lintel]

I actually debugged it and only iterated a few times over the loop, always waiting a few seconds, so I don't think this is the issue. But that's a good idea for when I'll actually use it.

[honest lintel]

Ok, thank you

[vale wing]

Yeah waiting after each iteration is what you needed. Actually you need to use the thing I suggested, while loop in on_ready is very bad

[honest lintel]

import os
import time

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import discord
from discord.ext import commands, tasks
from dotenv import load_dotenv

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(18, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(24, GPIO.OUT)

load_dotenv()

TOKEN = os.getenv("BOT_TOKEN")

intents = discord.Intents.all()

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


def handle_gpio(member, pin):
    if member.status.name != discord.Status.offline:
        print("Debug: Outputting True")
        GPIO.output(pin, True)
    elif member.status.name == discord.Status.offline:
        print("Debug: Outputting False")
        GPIO.output(pin, False)


@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    update_online_status.start()
    print("Started bot")


@tasks.loop(seconds=10)
async def update_online_status():
    rortox = bot.get_guild(928999025708003338).get_member(575326754214903818)
    the_creator = bot.get_guild(928999025708003338).get_member(395614306496020500)
    handle_gpio(rortox, 18)
    handle_gpio(the_creator, 24)


bot.run(TOKEN)

Does this look better?

[vale wing]

Yeah, except you need to start the loop once bot is ready

Move start function to on_ready

[honest lintel]

ok

[vale wing]

And increase the interval

I would suggest to put at least 30 seconds for this case

[honest lintel]

Wow, it started updating everything now! Thanks you so much @vale wing , I wonder why you're not a Helper yet

[honest lintel]

I'll do that, thanks again

[vale wing]

Because I got to here not far ago

You are welcome 😁

[honest lintel]

That's what I was trying to do. Whenever my friend gets online, the light will turn on.

[vale wing]

Oh raspberry pi nice thing

I actually did some projects on arduino

[honest lintel]

Cool! What did you do?

[vale wing]

LEDs blinking

Jk

I actually tried some analog input, temperature metrics and other simple projects, currently I am working on door access control system and still waiting for the materials to arrive to actually build it

[honest lintel]

That sounds very useful

and complicated

[vale wing]

The thing that might be complicated is SPI interface, that's the only I am worried about. But I hope I will be able to figure it out 😁

[honest lintel]

Good luck!

[vale wing]

Thanks, good luck you too

[honest lintel]

Thank you!

[honest lintel]

@vale wing I followed your suggestion on using discord.Status.offline instead of "offline", which is a really good suggestion, but I ran into some issues. So I tried this. Do you know what is going on?

[vale wing]

discord.Status is an enumerator

If you want to compare it with a string, you should use its name attribute

discord.Status.offline.name```

!d enum.Enum

[unkempt canyon]

enum.Enum

class enum.Enum```
Base class for creating enumerated constants. See section [Functional API](https://docs.python.org/3/library/enum.html#functional-api) for an alternate construction syntax.

[vale wing]

Iirc status inherits it

[honest lintel]

Ok, I was confused because discord.Status.offline is a String. I guess it's just some metaclass stuff going on. Thanks

[vale wing]

!e

from enum import Enum

class MyStatus(Enum):
    offline = 0
    online = 1

print(MyStatus.offline == MyStatus.offline)```
Basically works like this

[honest lintel]

Confusing, but thanks for helping me (again) :)

[vale wing]

You probably assign that number to blacklist variable, but lemme look more deep into this

Yeah

blacklist = user.id```

Perhaps you meant

blacklist.append(user.id)```?

[slate swan]

@-@ have I to int it?

nah

[vale wing]

user.id is already an int

[slate swan]

yea

[vale wing]

Just add it to the list

[hushed rain]

Ill pay someone $5 cashapp to help me get this bot working

[slate swan]

yee that

ty xD

[vale wing]

Also why not use @commands.has_role instead of if statement?

[vale wing]

I don't need payment but could you show your code here?

[slate swan]

It's more komp. for me .-.

[vale wing]

Imho it's easier to use

[slate swan]

also

[vale wing]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_role(some_role_id)
async def cmd(...```

[slate swan]

it isnt working on a role

[vale wing]

How tho?

[slate swan]

It's all about a userID in a json file

[vale wing]

Oh

[hushed rain]

Yes, here it is. ```py
import requests
import json
from requests.models import ContentDecodingError

Format Sent

while True:
headers = {
'authorization': ''
}
# Request from Discord with headers
r = requests.get(f'https://discord.com/api/v9/channels/883204140279414794/messages', headers=headers)
# Print Request
jsonn = json.loads(r.text)

for value in jsonn:

    message = (value['content'], '\n')
    print(value, '\n')

# Discord Send Message
payload = {
    'content': message
}

header = {
    'authorization': ''
}

r = requests.post("https://discord.com/api/v9/channels/883204140279414794/messages", data=payload, headers=header)
break

if message == 'content':

False

[vale wing]

Then you need a custom check, I can explain them to you

[slate swan]

moderator.json
[uID, uID]

blacklist.json is the same thing ^^

[vale wing]

Bot with requests lib?

[hushed rain]

I tried getting the discord library to work but it isnt for me. Do i need to do something specific to get it installed and set up :/

[vale wing]

Could you tell me what do you expect your code to do?

[hushed rain]

Transfer messages to multiple servers

[vale wing]

Oh so you just couldn't install the library?

[hushed rain]

No, I'm having trouble getting the most recent message to send.

[vale wing]

So you mean send message in one server and then the bot will send it to others?

[hushed rain]

Exactly

I need it to find a specific format of content and post it to another channel

[vale wing]

@slate swan if all the commands in the cog require author to be the mod, there's a simple trick to get rid of the if statements in every command, also it increases code readability

@hushed rain have you tried doing it with discord.py?

Or just couldn't figure it out at all

[slate swan]

Wa

[hushed rain]

I've tried but I couldn't get discord.py to show up on my installed libraries

[vale wing]

Oh

You installed it with pip?

[hushed rain]

yeah pip install discord.py

[slate swan]

It's just that so far, others are general

lmao xD

[vale wing]

Oh then there's another trick 😉

[vale wing]

It installed successfully?

Or gave some errors

[slate swan]

what kind?

[hushed rain]

installed successfully, no errors along the way and all packages are up to date

[vale wing]

def is_mod():
    def subf(ctx):
        return ctx.author.id in moderators

    return commands.check(subf)```

[boreal osprey]

im trying to install dotenv again

[vale wing]

And then you can decorate functions with @is_mod()

[vale wing]

And then you just can't import library?

[boreal osprey]

help im stuck on trying to download dotenv

[hushed rain]

When I try running the program it says the library isn't available

[vale wing]

Um

Could you show the full error?

[boreal osprey]

who

[hushed rain]

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord'

[vale wing]

What's your IDE

[hushed rain]

What is that ?

[vale wing]

Code editor

[hushed rain]

visual studio code

[vale wing]

And you run the script from there right?

[hushed rain]

Yes, from the terminal inside the IDE

[vale wing]

Do you have python extension installed?

[slate swan]

[vale wing]

@boreal osprey try running it like this, not sure if it will help

[slate swan]

pip install python-dotenv

[north summit]

Can anyone help me with replit

[vale wing]

Not a right way

[north summit]

The link which we use to host isn't showing

[vale wing]

Look at here, there's a function inside of function

[slate swan]

I'm using dotenv, it's pip install python-dotenv

[vale wing]

And outer function returns commands.check with subfunction as a parameter

[vale wing]

Oh

[slate swan]

xD

            return True
        raise ModOnly

    return commands.check(subf)

Option with custom exception

Usually it would raise CheckFailure if you don't raise another exception

class type(object)``````py

class type(name, bases, dict, **kwds)```
With one argument, return the type of an *object*. The return value is a type object and generally the same object as returned by [`object.__class__`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#instance.__class__ "instance.__class__").

The [`isinstance()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#isinstance "isinstance") built-in function is recommended for testing the type of an object, because it takes subclasses into account.

I'm trying to make a ping feature for a bot i'm making, but i dont know how to make it say both the latency and the string.
if msg.startswith(";ping"): await message.channel.send("In miliseconds:" {round(client.latency * 1000)}) return

[cedar stream]

F string

[silver magnet]

I need to put something in the middle and connect them, but what?

[cedar stream]

Use f string

[silver magnet]

oh yeah that exists

I've seen you have to use a + after adding the f but it doesn't seem to work. The error:
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

So there's an invalid syntax.

i guess

[flat solstice]

Is there a way to identify who invited a bot? I'm making a greeting msg for new users and I don't want it to greet bots (which I know how to do) but I want it to also send a msg in my staff commands saying which user invited the bot which is why I'm confused, does it work in the same way as normal member invite tracking or is there something else?

[silver magnet]

audit log?

[slate swan]

Is this correct?

@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)

[silver magnet]

Is there a way to make the bot read the rest of an message after the command was sent?

[flat solstice]

oh yeah I can get my bot to read that, How do I filter that tho to get what I'm looking for as I've not dabbled with getting bots to check audit logs before

[silver magnet]

use the default discord audit

it shows who creates the bot roles and its perms

[potent spear]

example of what you mean?

[slate swan]

async def cmd(ctx,*,arg)

[potent spear]

probably that, yeah

[slate swan]

I'm guessing that's what you asking for

[silver magnet]

like to make a bot repeat something you want it to say

[potent spear]

yeah, redd has to perfect example

[silver magnet]

ah. necessary to create a new client event?

[potent spear]

when you do ?cmd I shat yesterday
then arg will be equal to I shat yesterday

[slate swan]

No

yeah

So something like this

@bot.command()
async def repeat(ctx,*,message):
  await ctx.message.delete()
  await ctx.send(message)

Whatever you say after repeat will be what the bot repeats

[potent spear]

correct

[marsh depot]

Hi anyone know how can i edit a embed image making a command

[potent spear]

you have to be aware of some stuff, like this will throw errors etc if you just type ?repeat for example

[slate swan]

Yeah

[marsh depot]

im making this code , it works in TextMessages but not in embes

@bot.command()
async def edit_gif(ctx, msg_id : int = None, channel: discord.TextChannel = None, *, link=None):
  if not msg_id:
    await ctx.reply(f"Tienes que agregar la ID del mensaje que quieras editar")
    return
  elif not channel:
    await ctx.reply(f"Tienes que agregar el canal done se encuentra mensaje que quieras editar")
    return
  elif not message:
      await ctx.reply(f"Tienes que agregar el mensaje que quieras poner para editar")
      return
  msg = await channel.fetch_message(msg_id)
  new_embed = discord.Embed(title='\n', description='\n', color=0xff261b)
  new_embed.set_image(url=f"{link}") # I try to write url=link and still don't work
  await msg.edit(embed=new_embed)

[slate swan]

  if not message:
    #stuff

[potent spear]

the if stuff will never trigger / be true

[silver magnet]

any way i can set the command like !say?

most of the time i make strings with the prefix so I don't really know how it's like

[slate swan]

Yeah just change the command name

[silver magnet]

ahh

[slate swan]

after async def

[potent spear]

you can have aliases...

[slate swan]

yeah or have aliases

[silver magnet]

"Unresolved reference 'bot'"

[slate swan]

🤦

are you using client

[silver magnet]

yeah

[slate swan]

Then change bot to client on the first line

[marsh depot]

anyone know where is the issue

[silver magnet]

please dont be stressed im just veery new lol

[slate swan]

I'm guessing it's an invalid link, try using the link you used as an example for the embed image instead of a variable

Can I still follow this video of db’s if I use replit? Cuz he makes a table https://youtu.be/Y9DzfPJsP2s

[frail notch]

can someone lmk if you're familiar with oauth2 exchange codes and how they are generated

[slate swan]

You still can

[marsh depot]

okay, im going to try it.

[slate swan]

So it won’t change anything?

[slate swan]

Shouldn't do, no

[marsh depot]

Nothing still don't working

[slate swan]

Show your code?

[slate swan]

Ok ty

[hushed rain]

https://tenor.com/view/hmm-ok-okay-then-gif-24387952

[marsh depot]

    await ctx.reply(f"Stuff")
    return
  elif not message:

      return
  msg = await channel.fetch_message(msg_id)
  new_embed = discord.Embed(title='\n', description='\n', color=0xff261b)
  new_embed.set_image(url=link) # I try to write url=f"{link}" and still don't work
  await msg.edit(embed=new_embed)

I make the command like these, for make it you need to put
!edit_gif messageID channelMention NewLink

[potent spear]

there's no need for the link to have *, in front

because it's one word, not really a string with spaces

also, what you did in comments, please keep it like that

[flat solstice]

okay so I found the bot_add audit log action but as far as I can see it doesn't show who added the bot or am I just being dense
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=audit log#discord.AuditLogAction.bot_add

[potent spear]

your link is standard a string, dont do f"{link}", that's useless

[marsh depot]

Still the same

[marsh depot]

I change it and still don't working properly

[hushed rain]

Challenge Question
How would you change the code to find the value of ['author'] inside of ['username']

for value in jsonn:
    message = (value['content'], value['username'], '\n')

[potent spear]

can you SEND the embed with the right link instead of editing a specific message? try that first

[marsh depot]

Yes i can but i want (if i can) edit the previous gif

[potent spear]

show me a piece of json and tell me what you need, I'll tell you

[marsh depot]

i send a Embed and want to edit gif 2 min later for example

[potent spear]

not sure if you can edit images

[marsh depot]

change this gif, if i can sure

[slate swan]

Iterable command_prefix or list returned from get_prefix must contain only strings, not function

i want a standart prefix + custom T^T

[potent spear]

well, add that in the get_prefix function ofc

if it's not found, return the standard one

[hushed rain]

This is the terminals response

('hello', {'id': '196079195376451584', 'username': 'Ike P', 'avatar': '766de912475c7d057cb37f61f75f0f55', 'discriminator': '6874', 'public_flags': 0}, '\n')

[silver magnet]

i have a problem with using ctx. everytime i try making a command with it it doesn't work while with something like message.channel.send it works.

[slate swan]

return prefixes[str(msg.guild.id)], "$"
```?

[potent spear]

and what doytou need from it?

[potent spear]

return prefixes.get(str(msg.guild.id), "$")

[hushed rain]

This is the json @potent spear 🙂

[slate swan]

nah

mine is working

[potent spear]

what value do you need?

[hushed rain]

'Ike P', the 'usernames' trunk

[silver magnet]

i don't think that's working either. it just doesn't give response.
well, there's this error:
Unresolved attribute reference 'command' for class 'Client'

[potent spear]

data = yourjsonshit
your_username= data['author']['username']

more overview

[slate swan]

maybe, work with indent

[hushed rain]

I was able to get it with

print(value['author']['username'],":", value['content'])

[hushed rain]

This is the solution

[potent spear]

ofc it is

[silver magnet]

anyone can help with ctx problems? just asking

[potent spear]

just show the code and the error, I'll tell you what's up

[silver magnet]

remember the thing redd said?

[slate swan]

I think every can

[silver magnet]

i tried running the code
@client.command()
async def repeat(ctx,*,message):
await ctx.message.delete()
await ctx.send(message)

it didn't give a response

[potent spear]

your client has to be defined like this

[silver magnet]

except there was this error

[potent spear]

client = commands.Bot(...)

[silver magnet]

ah

[potent spear]

not like this client = discord.Client(...)

[silver magnet]

mine is discordClient()

ohhh

[potent spear]

commands.Bot has all the functionality discord.Client has + commands and tasks

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

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

@client.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *, message):
  await ctx.message.delete()
  await ctx.send(message)

client.run("TOKEN")
``` Command would be `$repeat <message>`

@silver magnet

[silver magnet]

understood

[slate swan]

I recommend you change the code to this to prevent people from pinging and to handle errors. @silver magnet

@client.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *, message=None):
  if message == None:
    await ctx.send("Arguement error")
  await ctx.message.delete()
  await ctx.send(f"`{message}`")

[marsh depot]

i really don't know where is the issue

[silver magnet]

it still doesn't have input. I'm just very new to this.

[slate swan]

Truth

[potent spear]

your if statement will never be True, as said earlier

[slate swan]

There

[potent spear]

yup, that's it

[slate swan]

is your bot in the server? ^^

[silver magnet]

it's a bot i made for a private server

I could remove triggers and send the code here

oh yeah and ofc censor the token

[slate swan]

yeah send the code

[wicked atlas]

Have you tried making sure that link actually has content in it? Because otherwise you would just be setting the image url to None.

[potent spear]

he just has initialized his client wrong, that's all

[silver magnet]

just please dont laugh at me im veeery new lmaoo

[quaint epoch]

we won't

[silver magnet]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import random
import os


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

TOKEN = "no"


@client.event

    print("logged as {0.user}".format(client))

this is on PyCharm

[potent spear]

your on_message events are shadowing

[slate swan]

use a codeblock please lmfao

!codeblock

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[slate swan]

Don't use events for commands

[quaint epoch]

i made that mistake before lol

never again

do py @client.command() async def foo(ctx, params): #do stuff here lol

[silver magnet]

problem is that like
ctx never worked for me for some weird ass reason

yes i have it installed

[quaint epoch]

ctx, installed?

[silver magnet]

yeah

i did the pip command in terminal

im using an ubuntu based distro

just to check

[quaint epoch]

don't import ctx

[slate swan]

@silver magnet fixed

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=";")
TOKEN = "no"

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("logged as {0.user}".format(client))

@client.command()
async def ping(ctx):
  await ctx.send(f"In miliseconds: {round(client.latency * 1000)}")

@client.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *, message):
if not message:
  await ctx.send("Arguement error")
await ctx.message.delete()
await ctx.send(f"`{message}`")

client.run(TOKEN`)

[quaint epoch]

omg codeblock

[silver magnet]

woww

[marsh depot]

Bot detect don't have GiF but dont change it in the embed

I put the GiF but dont change de url image of the embed

[silver magnet]

🤨

[marsh depot]

and no idea how to solve it

[slate swan]

tf are you using

do you even have discord.py installed

run pip install discord in cmd

[silver magnet]

python 3.6 on PyCharm

weird

it's installed

[slate swan]

Did you just install it?

[silver magnet]

yeah

but i mean

i actually installed it in the beggining of the project

that i started just today

[slate swan]

you should update python aswell

[silver magnet]

any instructions on how to do it on linux?

[quaint epoch]

show the whole command

[quaint epoch]

you got the indentation wrong

@client.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *, message):
  if not message:
    await ctx.send("Argument error.")
    await ctx.message.delete()
    await ctx.send(f"`{message}`")```

[silver magnet]

ayy

well

none of the cmds seem to work

[quaint epoch]

that's strange, can you send all of the code and the errors your getting?

and btw did you add your bot to the server with proper perms4

[silver magnet]

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=";")
TOKEN = "imagine the token is here"


@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("logged as {0.user}".format(client))


@client.command()
async def ping(ctx):
  await ctx.send(f"In miliseconds: {round(client.latency * 1000)}")


@client.command()
async def repeat(ctx, *, message):
  if not message:
    await ctx.send("Argument error.")
    await ctx.message.delete()
    await ctx.send(f"`{message}`")

client.run(TOKEN)```

why did it send 3 images

[flat solstice]

Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong with this, I don't seem to be getting errors but My bot just gets stuckpy async for entry in member.guild.audit_logs(action = discord.AuditLogAction.bot_add): print('{0.user}/{member} added {0.target}'.format(entry))

[potent spear]

just f string the print
print(f"{...}/{...} added {...}")

[flat solstice]

okay well I have this now and it's erred and got stuck but it's not giving me errors or a print outpy async for entry in member.guild.audit_logs(action = discord.AuditLogAction.bot_add): print(f'{0.user} added {0.target}'.format(entry))

[potent spear]

you don't know what an f string does obviously

[silver magnet]

you need to cover the entire text with '

even the formatentry

p sure

or i just suck

👍

[potent spear]

just remove .format(entry)

you'll be left with
print(f"{entry.user} added {entry.target}")

welcome to the wonderful world of formatting strings

[silver magnet]

anyone able to help btw?

the bot says it's running but does nothing at all

[potent spear]

you might be running 3 instances of the bot

[silver magnet]

i mean

i think i just pressed ctrl v 3 times

lol

or are you not talking about the images

[flat solstice]

okay, well it's responding but not sending the print statement nor is it giving me a error. I'm not sure if i've done the bot_add correctly as I think it only takes target but I want to know who invited the bot

[potent spear]

I'm talking about you running the same file 3 times possibly

[silver magnet]

huh

[potent spear]

idk anything about that

[potent spear]

nvm, let it be
those aren't errors btw, those are warnings

[silver magnet]

ah

but why doesn't it run?

i mean it runs but no commands work

[potent spear]

full code?

[silver magnet]

in here

ill make it a box

[potent spear]

how are you trying to run a command?

[silver magnet]

i don't really know because i was asked to change the code to that so i didn't use events to create commands. the old script is here

[potent spear]

so you don't know how to run a command and are asking yourself why your commands don't run? 🧠

[silver magnet]

yeah

i mean

[potent spear]

bruh, you're asking the wrong questions

[silver magnet]

the way i was doing it is apparently unefficient

[potent spear]

just ask "how do I run a command"

is your bot running and in your server?

[silver magnet]

im confused at this point

yeah its running

[potent spear]

and in a server you're in?

[silver magnet]

in the old script the commands worked fine

yeah

[potent spear]

alright

type ;ping

voila, it works, good luck with coding!

[silver magnet]

but in which code?

in this new one it doesn't seem to work

[potent spear]

in a channel on discord

just do it

[silver magnet]

i already did

with the new one

[potent spear]

this file, right?

[silver magnet]

with the old one it worked, new doesn't

yeah the new one

[potent spear]

are you 100% certain you're running that file?

[silver magnet]

it doesn't give me any errors

in the run tab

[potent spear]

you're just running the wrong file I think

what IDE do you use?

[silver magnet]

PyCharm

[potent spear]

right click anywhere in the code

then run in terminal or whatever it says

also, stop running the previous code/ bot

[silver magnet]

ill try running it in the terminal

dammit my pc overheated again

@potent spear i ran in the terminal and the result was the same. It just said it was running.

[potent spear]

idk man

[silver magnet]

:(

hi guys im having trouble with this snipe command ```snipe_message_content = {}

I get AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id' when defining guildide = message.guild.id

try client = commands.Bot(<your prefix stuff>, intents = discord.Intents.default())
that's the best I can think of

[distant warren]

I just tried that and then you said it 😂

wait lemme test it

[potent spear]

you have to except specific errors, there's a high chance that there's just an error telling you the Embed structure is incorrect
which is the case btw: the structure of your embed is incorrect

[distant warren]

works

[potent spear]

strange, since that's basically default...

for some reason, ctx never worked for me. Do I need to update my python?

[potent spear]

what version are you on?

python as well as dpy version pls

[silver magnet]

3.6

[potent spear]

import discord
print(discord.__version__)

[silver magnet]

1.7.3

[quartz badger]

I have this command to restart the bot and I was wondering if there was a way for the bot to send a message saying that it is back up and running in the chat that I did the command.

def restart_bot(): 
    os.execv(sys.executable, ['python'] + sys.argv)

@bot.command(name = 'restart')
async def restart(ctx):
    
    id = str(ctx.author.id)

    if id == '543955269315723279':
        await ctx.send("Estou a reiniciar... Aguarde um momento.")
        restart_bot()
  
    else:
        await ctx.send("Você não tem permissão para usar este comando!")```

[potent spear]

you can make a startup task, which basically does stuff as soon as the bot goes online

[silver magnet]

dpy is not downloaded i think because pip just downloaded it

[quartz badger]

but wouldn't that imply that I set a specific channel for him to send the message?

[potent spear]

no, else, you'd have had errors whenever you tried running the code

[silver magnet]

weird

[potent spear]

correct, that can be an issue.... since you can restart the bot from multiple guilds

you can always store the channel_id in a db, and send to that channel on startup...

[silver magnet]

anything else you have to know?

or is it really a lost case

[pliant gulch]

This would be hard to do without a finiky method

And by finiky I mean some sort of flag passed for startup

[potent spear]

a startup task...

[pliant gulch]

Yes but then it would always send when the bot starts.

Not only after the bot gets restarted by the command

[silver magnet]

or does anyone have any idea?

[potent spear]

well, you can clear that value in the db after the startup task

if no value was found in the db => bot doesn't have to notify anyone

[pliant gulch]

So that means you'd do an API call and a database write every time the bot starts. Which can vary as discord bot's reconnect every so often to the gateway which is the connection state

[potent spear]

nono, via a startup task, it only does this once

[pliant gulch]

Yes, every time the bot starts

I.e "startup task" am I wrong?

[potent spear]

mhm

[pliant gulch]

Yes, and so the bot can restart many times in it's lifetime

[potent spear]

the discord py server has genius tags/commands about this subject

[potent spear]

which is indeed described in the on_ready event

[pliant gulch]

Yes, so that would mean it doesn't run only once

[potent spear]

the startup task would only get invoked once, that's what matters ig

[pliant gulch]

Yes, per lifetime

[potent spear]

mhm

[pliant gulch]

A way to do this without a database is just to make a flag, you could overwrite run to take in another arg E.g run(TOKEN, restarted=True) and do stuff with that

[potent spear]

yeah, can perfectly be done in a config file

[pliant gulch]

This would mean you need specify something else in argv

[silver magnet]

sorry if im asking too much
im just concerned because it doesnt seem to work even though everyone says it should be working

i was using the wrong prefix all the time lol

now how do i make a certain command private for a channel?

trying to make a poll feature

async def poll(ctx, *, message=None):
    if message.channel == "mod-chat":
        if message is None:
            await ctx.send("Argument error")
        await ctx.message.delete()
        await ctx.send(f"@poll ping, `{message}`")
    else:
        return```

trying to make it only for the mods in the server

hence why the mod chat thing

[pliant gulch]

The message.channel == "mod-chat" part is wrong though

You are trying to compare a TextChannel to a str

Which will never be true

You meant to check name of message.channel

!d discord.TextChannel.name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.name

The channel name.

[silver magnet]

so i need to replace message.channel with discord.TextChannel.name?

[pliant gulch]

no

[silver magnet]

what do i need to do exactly?

[pliant gulch]

[silver magnet]

ahhh

im still new to this, i only started like 2 days ago, can you explain if you don't mind?

since im still a bit confused

[wicked atlas]

message.channel is a discord.TextChannel object, which means it has a field called name

[silver magnet]

i still don't get what exactly i need to do

i really am trying to learn from the things im doing wrong to get somewhere

[wicked atlas]

Then I would suggest you start by learning a few things about basic python, such as classes
https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_classes.asp

[silver magnet]

i know the veeery basics. What do i really need to change in the code?

[wicked atlas]

message.channel.name

[silver magnet]

i think i tried it be4 but ill see

well it still detects it as str

i tried using both () and ==

[wicked atlas]

if message.channel.name == "mod-chat":
    ...

[silver magnet]

i think ive tried that

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'channel'

it still detects it as str

i guess

[wicked atlas]

oh wait a

ok then, i did not read your code completely

message is a string. It's an argument for your command, so everything typed after your command will be put as a string into it

!myexamplecommand <everything here would be put into message>

You want to use ctx.message.channel, since ctx is the object that has the actual message object

[silver magnet]

async def poll(ctx, *, message=None):
    if ctx.message.channel == "mod-chat":
        if message is None:
            await ctx.send("Argument error")
        await ctx.message.delete()
        await ctx.send(f"@:clipboard: | Moderators, `{message}`")
    else:
        return```

is this good?

[wicked atlas]

and the .name

since you want the name of the channel

[silver magnet]

it worked ^^

how do i make it ping a role?

[peak loom]

No work.

I tried.

[silver magnet]

nvm, found out

[peak loom]

Wait a minute...

Perfect i'll creae it into a command.

[slate swan]

Hello!

@client.command()

        if voice_client.is_playing():
            continue

            voice_client.play(random.choice(audio_source_list), after = None)
            await asyncio.sleep(120)

@peak loom?

This code basically picks a random mp3 clip from the list and plays it. However, the bot only uses clip3, 5, and 9. It hasnt used File.mp3, or clip2.mp3, or the others

[silver magnet]

Is there any way I can make a bot add reactions to it's own message?

[slate swan]

Is there a way to prevent repetition unless the bot has used every clip in the list?

[slate swan]

Yes

[silver magnet]

hm

[slate swan]

await mes.add_reaction(":heavy_check_mark:")

[wicked atlas]

You could shuffe it every time it gets through every one in the list

!d random.shuffle

[unkempt canyon]

random.shuffle

random.shuffle(x[, random])```
Shuffle the sequence *x* in place.

The optional argument *random* is a 0-argument function returning a random float in [0.0, 1.0); by default, this is the function [`random()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#random.random "random.random").

To shuffle an immutable sequence and return a new shuffled list, use `sample(x, k=len(x))` instead.

Note that even for small `len(x)`, the total number of permutations of *x* can quickly grow larger than the period of most random number generators. This implies that most permutations of a long sequence can never be generated. For example, a sequence of length 2080 is the largest that can fit within the period of the Mersenne Twister random number generator.

Deprecated since version 3.9, will be removed in version 3.11: The optional parameter *random*.

[slate swan]

Interesting, would this work:

[peak loom]

You made me have an idea.

[silver magnet]

async def poll(ctx, *, message=None):
    if ctx.message.channel.name == "mod-chat":
        if message is None:
            await ctx.send("Argument error")
        await ctx.message.delete()
        await ctx.send(f"<@&role-id>, `{message}`")
        await mes.add_reaction(":thumbsup:")
        await mes.add_reaction(":thumbsdown:")
    else:
        return```
is this good?

[wicked atlas]

mes would have to refer to the message sent by the bot, so you need to do this

mes = await ctx.send(f"<@&role-id>, `{message}`")

[silver magnet]

its a variable?

[slate swan]

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def welcome(ctx):
    guild = ctx.guild
    voice_client: discord.VoiceClient = discord.utils.get(client.voice_clients, guild = guild)
    while True:
      audio_source_list = [discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('file.mp3'), discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('clip2.mp3'), discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('clip3.mp3'),         discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('clip5.mp3'), discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('clip6.mp3'), discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('clip7.mp3'), discord.FFmpegPCMAudio('clip9.mp3')]
      audio_source = audio_source_list[:]
      random.shuffle(audio_source)
      for i in range(7):
         if voice_client.is_playing():
            continue
         else:
            voice_client.play(audio_source.pop(), after = None)
            await asyncio.sleep(120)

@wicked atlas ?

[wicked atlas]

random.shuffle just returns the list, but with it's contents in a random order. That wouldn't work because it's a list

[slate swan]

oo

use .pop()?

[slate swan]

is that why its just throwing the no messages deleted message no other error

[silver magnet]

i need to place that between mes.add and ctx.send?

[slate swan]

This should work, let me try @wicked atlas

[wicked atlas]

You might also be able to do this with the after kwarg, and some recursion

[slate swan]

oo interesting

[wicked atlas]

Yeah, I would suggest you use the after kwarg, because otherwise there's going to be a lot of unnecessary looping in the background

[slate swan]

True, how would we go on about this?

[potent spear]

I told you that like an hour ago…

[silver magnet]

@wicked atlas I tried and it really only duplicated the message. I don't know where to place it.

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def poll(ctx, *, message=None):
    if ctx.message.channel.name == "mod-chat":
        if message is None:
            mes = await ctx.send("Argument error")
            return
        await ctx.message.delete()
        mes = await ctx.send(f"<@&role-id>, `{message}`")
        await mes.add_reaction(":thumbsup:")
        await mes.add_reaction(":thumbsdown:")
    else:
        return

Try this @silver magnet

[silver magnet]

hm

[wicked atlas]

I mean, that wouldn't get you the message object

[slate swan]

wait acually

[wicked atlas]

@client.command()
async def poll(ctx, *, message=None):
    if ctx.message.channel.name == "mod-chat":
        if message is None:
            await ctx.send("Argument error")
            return
        await ctx.message.delete()
        mes = await ctx.send(f"<@&role-id>, `{message}`")
        await mes.add_reaction(":thumbsup:")
        await mes.add_reaction(":thumbsdown:")
    else:
        return

[slate swan]

yep just changed it didnt see

[slate swan]

ohhh ok alright ill go back through it

[slate swan]

why not use channel id?

[potent spear]

Just catch specific errors… you’re catching all

[silver magnet]

Hey uh, that doesn't seem to add any reactions

[wicked atlas]

AUDIO_SOURCE_LIST = [...]

def play_audio(voice_client, sources):
    try:
        source = next(sources)
    except StopIteration:
        random.shuffle(AUDIO_SOURCE_LIST)
        sources = iter(AUDIO_SOURCE_LIST)

    voice_client.play(source, after=play_audio(voice_client, sources))

play_audio(voice_client, iter(AUDIO_SOURCE_LIST))
```I might do something like this

there's probrably a better way to do it

[slate swan]

Interesting, can you also briefly explain it a little?

[slate swan]

but this would loop it would it?

I want it to indefinitely play the clips.

[silver magnet]

didn't change the code too

[wicked atlas]

No, this would play infinitely i think

[slate swan]

Let me try

[wicked atlas]

It would iterate through the sources iterable until it reaches the end, then it shuffles it and starts again

[silver magnet]

anyone can help?

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: UnboundLocalError: local variable 'source' referenced before assignment

i am trying to make a trigger, how do i? i tried this but i am still very new to python

async def triggers(ctx):
    if ctx.message.user == "hello":
        await ctx.send("hi")```

something must be horribly wrong

[slate swan]

oh pff i forgot a line

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object

[boreal ravine]

You can't make custom events. You can use the on_message event to make "triggers". on_message takes only one parameter, and the message class has a content attribute to return the messages content ```py
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
...

[wicked atlas]

and yep im being dumb again

voice_client.play(source, after=lambda: play_audio(voice_client, sources))

[wicked atlas]

well you can, you just need to dispatch them yourself

@client.on("myevent")
async def on_my_event():
    pass

#elsewhere
client.dispatch("myevent")

[slate swan]

Plays audio: But also gives this:

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: ClientException: Already playing audio.

Once the audio ends: We get:

TypeError: <lambda>() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

[slate swan]

this I can fix by if statement

[wicked atlas]

the lambda error you can do this, i just read the docs again

lambda e: play_audio(voice_client, sources) 

it passes an error as a paremeter

[boreal ravine]

discord.py already covered all of discords events before it stopped development, not sure why'd you wanna create a custom event though

[wicked atlas]

well, for events outside of discord's events

[silver magnet]

async def on_messag(message):
    if message.user == "hello":
        await message.send("hi")```
i have no idea what im doing fr

i still need to take more tutorials but its literally midnight over here

[wicked atlas]

This error is caused because you have it in a while True: loop

remove that loop

[slate swan]

oh crap didnt even realize

[slate swan]

Anyway to timeout in After?

[boreal ravine]

if you have no idea what your doing click the links below
good tutorial: https://vcokltfre.dev
dpy faq: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#faq
docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

[slate swan]

Bc the clips play back to back, I want to timeout for 30 seconds

[wicked atlas]

You can add asyncio.sleep() to the beginning of the play_audio function

[silver magnet]

ill check it tomorrow, ty

[wicked atlas]

but that would prevent it from playing it for 30 secs the first time

[slate swan]

perfect

[boreal ravine]

👍

[heavy folio]

dont spoonfeed and thats some real bad code

[slate swan]

i can agree

[slate swan]

1. He's a beginner. 2) Thats not my code, i made changes to his code to make it work.

[heavy folio]

you dont give them the code

[slate swan]

Understandable, My fault

[heavy folio]

and because hes a beginner he should be taught some good practices

e.g. using error handlers instead of making args None, etc

[slate swan]

if your gonna make an example make it the best you can tbh

[worthy wagon]

didn't know they added something called messag

[slate swan]

you havent seen it?

it detects messag

[true moon]

I have problem

when i use on_message event no command works why

even the program has no errors

[heavy folio]

@true moon dont use on_message

If you need commands, use the commands extension. Docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/commands.html Why should I use the commands extension? - Prevents spaghetti code - Better performance - Easy handling and processing of command arguments - Argument type converters - Easy sub commands - Command cooldowns - Built-in help function - Easy prefix management - Command checks, for controlling when they're to be invoked - Ability to add command modules via extensions/cogs - Still able to do everything you can do with Client

[torn sail]

I think he means that his commands aren’t working cause his on_message event

[slate swan]

thats not even what he needs?

[torn sail]

You should add await bot.process_commands(message) to the end of ur on_mesage

[slate swan]

or you can just use .listen()
