discord-bots

[vale wing]

Does your command have like

@command_name.error```

[quick gust]

no elifs?

[vale wing]

Also it shouldn't really return something

[humble granite]

my command has:

@commands.command()
@commands.bot_has_permissions(administrator=True)

[vale wing]

And yeah add elifs

[humble granite]

forgot haha

just added elifs and still happens

[vale wing]

Can you show us create_embed method?

[humble granite]

async def create_embed(self,ctx,description,author):
    print("Error embed")
    em = discord.Embed(description=description,
                       color=0xeeffee, timestamp=ctx.message.created_at)
    em.set_author(name=author,icon_url=self.bot.user.avatar_url)
    em.set_thumbnail(url=self.bot.user.avatar_url)
    await ctx.send(embed=em)

[vale wing]

Okay error is not in there

[placid skiff]

what IDE are you using?

[humble granite]

PyCharm

[surreal sierra]

ah I did have an error handler, I removed it now and got this error. why does it say * is not supported?

[vale wing]

bet is none

[quick gust]

bet is None

[placid skiff]

Try to do debug it using breakpoints

[humble granite]

okay, gimme a minute

[vale wing]

@humble granite I still have the feeling that there's a local error handler

[placid skiff]

debug the on_command_error event and your create_embed async func

[vale wing]

Does pycharm debug async apps alright? Cause VSC can't, it only raises unhandled errors

[surreal sierra]

oh okay, that makes sense. so I need to put each embed inside if function they are being used

[humble granite]

Just debugged it and it tells me the create_embed async was called 2 times

[placid skiff]

well it actually does but if you take too much time it will raise a timeout error i think

[quick gust]

send your error handler once again

(what u have right now)

[vale wing]

Nice

[placid skiff]

something else is calling the create_embed, is as Exenifix said, maybe you have a local error handler in your bot object

[tulip oracle]

how can i add roles to a channel with specific permissions what method? i looked at permissions_for but its just returns and i cant find a channel update

[humble granite]

didn't get any error. just the print from the code down below

async def create_embed(self,ctx,description,author):
    print("Error embed")
    em = discord.Embed(description=description,
                       color=0xeeffee, timestamp=ctx.message.created_at)
    em.set_author(name=author,icon_url=self.bot.user.avatar_url)
    em.set_thumbnail(url=self.bot.user.avatar_url)
    await ctx.send(embed=em)

[vale wing]

@humble granite search for regex @.*\.error in code

[quick gust]

No, I'm talking about your on_command_error

since thats where create_embed is being called

[tulip oracle]

you also have self.bot.user.avatar_url in both author and thumbnail

[placid skiff]

do you know if does a function has something which can tell you where it is called?

[vale wing]

You mean set perms for channel?

[tulip oracle]

for a role yes

[humble granite]

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_command_error(self,ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
        return await self.create_embed(ctx,f"d","Missing Permissions")
    elif isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
      return await self.create_embed(ctx,f"Y","Missing Permissions")
    elif isinstance(error,commands.BotMissingPermissions):
      return await self.create_embed(ctx,f"Missing perms","Missing Permissions")
    else:
      print(error)
      return await self.create_embed(ctx,f"u","Unkown Error")

[vale wing]

I am just doing a different method

[vale wing]

!d discord.TextChannel.set_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.set\_permissions

await set_permissions(target, *, overwrite=see - below, reason=None, **permissions)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sets the channel specific permission overwrites for a target in the channel.

The `target` parameter should either be a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") that belongs to guild.

The `overwrite` parameter, if given, must either be `None` or [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite"). For convenience, you can pass in keyword arguments denoting [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions") attributes. If this is done, then you cannot mix the keyword arguments with the `overwrite` parameter.

If the `overwrite` parameter is `None`, then the permission overwrites are deleted.

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

[quick gust]

why return?

just print or send

[vale wing]

Search that regex like you might find the error handler @humble granite

[humble granite]

Okay @vale wing

hmmm. gives no error. but theres a new problem now.
It sends the message 4 TIMES and i get it 2 times in the log

[tulip oracle]

cheers

[humble granite]

just removed return and i get the message still 2 times

[vale wing]

@humble granite so you didn't find any code matching that regex?

[humble granite]

yes

[quick gust]

another thing, what error does it actually send?

[stable berry]

Hello

@client.command(aliases=['user','info']) 
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members = True)
async def whois(ctx, member : discord.Member):
 embed = discord.Embed(title = member.name , description = member.mention , colour = discor.colour.#00FFFF())
 embed.add_field(name = "ID", value = str(member.id), inline=True )
 await ctx.send(embed=embed)

Is giving syntax error in last line

[vale wing]

Other commands send single response?

[limpid thicket]

Or just use elif

[quick gust]

like MissingPermissions or what

[quick gust]

they are using elif

[quaint epoch]

what's the error?

[quick gust]

indents?

[vale wing]

I told (you?) what to replace that thing with

[stable berry]

It's showing invalid syntax in last line

[limpid thicket]

You have a space before adding your comma.

[stable berry]

It's not working

[quaint epoch]

what invalid syntax? It usually gives extra text

[limpid thicket]

Also color should be.

color=0x00FFFF

[vale wing]

discoc.colour.#00FFFF() is invalid color construction

[quaint epoch]

did you check your indents?

[humble granite]

so I'm not getting any error from that. only the print from my create_embed async.
So if i add on_message event, it happens nothing.
If i call another command without the @commands.bot_has_permissions, it does not happen.

[stable berry]

But it's showing invalid hexadecimal literal

[stable berry]

Indents are correct ig

[limpid thicket]

You should use color=0x00FFFF

When classing your discord.Embed object

[quaint epoch]

@client.command(aliases=['user','info']) 
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members = True)
async def whois(ctx, member : discord.Member):
  embed = discord.Embed(title = member.name , description = member.mention , colour=0x00FFFF)
  embed.add_field(name = "ID", value = str(member.id), inline=True )
  await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[limpid thicket]

I'll just write you the code 1 sec

[stable berry]

But it's showing invalid hexadecimal literal

[humble granite]

Just added a ctx.send into that on_command_error and it gets called one time

[limpid thicket]

@client.command(aliases=['user','info']) 
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members = True)
async def whois(ctx, member : discord.Member):
  embed = discord.Embed(title=member.name, description=member.mention, color=0x00FFFF)
  embed.add_field(name="ID", value=str(member.id), inline=True)
  await ctx.send(embed=embed)

Is how it should be.

[quaint epoch]

shouldn't the color be in string? or am i wrong?

[limpid thicket]

No.

0x is there to define it, it doesn't error.

[quaint epoch]

alr

[placid skiff]

Do you still do return await self.send_embed?

[humble granite]

yes

[stable berry]

Without the "" it's showing incal hexadecimal

But with them it's not showing

[placid skiff]

Just write await self.send_embed

[limpid thicket]

Ah sorry.

[quaint epoch]

so, i was right

[limpid thicket]

I wrote british version of color

WAIT

[stable berry]

Yes ig

[quaint epoch]

colour?

[limpid thicket]

IT'S COLOR LOL

[quaint epoch]

yo yo caps

[stable berry]

It should be colour

[quaint epoch]

color and colour, bruh

[limpid thicket]

I swear both don't work.

[quaint epoch]

im canadian so i use colour

[vale wing]

Color is an alias to Colour

[stable berry]

Color is not working

[limpid thicket]

I literally remember trying.

[quaint epoch]

confuse 100

[stable berry]

🥲

[vale wing]

[limpid thicket]

Did you use the code I sent?

[vale wing]

I think even docs say it like that

[limpid thicket]

I edited other stuff too.

[vale wing]

Mk

[quaint epoch]

!d discord.Colour

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Colour

class discord.Colour(value)```
Represents a Discord role colour. This class is similar to a (red, green, blue) [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.9)").

There is an alias for this called Color...

[quaint epoch]

YO

[limpid thicket]

a

[quaint epoch]

lets go

[vale wing]

In the source code it is py Color = Colour

[stable berry]

I am copying it wait

[placid skiff]

@humble granite

[quaint epoch]

canada ftw

[limpid thicket]

Surprised tbh.

[quaint epoch]

lmao

Confusing af

[humble granite]

just did that. it still happens

[vale wing]

"There's an alias for this called Color..."

[quaint epoch]

no no no no no

[limpid thicket]

Bruh, that's why. xd

[humble granite]

so i've just made a ctx.send instead of the self.send_embed. it sends the message only 1 time

[limpid thicket]

I thought you would of.

[vale wing]

@humble granite is your bot like very big

[placid skiff]

Man this will get me crazy

[vale wing]

Cause if it's not I'd like to look at that thing by myself

[stable berry]

It's not working

[quaint epoch]

what is the definition of "big"

like, 2000 lines?

[limpid thicket]

What's the error?

[vale wing]

> 500 lines

[quaint epoch]

error?

[humble granite]

nah, not really. its jsut a test with the main file 500, and 2 cog files with 100 lines

[stable berry]

Syntax error - invalid syntax

🥲

[limpid thicket]

Is your indentation correct?

[stable berry]

Yes

[quaint epoch]

send full error

[limpid thicket]

What are you using to run code?

[stable berry]

Ok

[placid skiff]

Wait what do you have in the main file?

[stable berry]

Replit

[vale wing]

Ok could you pastebin the file with your main command (exclude the token if it's there) and send it

[limpid thicket]

Replit?

[stable berry]

Yes

Me totally confused

[humble granite]

i'm gonna pastebin the cogs with the error messages

[stable berry]

Now

[quaint epoch]

brb

[vale wing]

I need the cog with command more

[humble granite]

that too

[vale wing]

It doesn't seem like the problem is in global handler

[stable berry]

What should I do now should I do it in vs code ?

[placid skiff]

Do you have other error handlers? Inside your main or your other cog?

[vale wing]

There's another thing I can't really tell until look at the whole thing

[humble granite]

no

[vale wing]

Already asked him, he said no

[stable berry]

Me ?

[vale wing]

No

[stable berry]

Ok 🥲

[vale wing]

I remember there's a quick way to change indentation

[stable berry]

[limpid thicket]

Can you send a picture of your code if it's small enough to fit.

[stable berry]

Ok

[vale wing]

@stable berry arrow very gud ik

[placid skiff]

Depends on IDE
In pycharm if you evidence a block of code and press tab it will indent the whole block

[vale wing]

He said his IDE is VSC iirc

[stable berry]

👍

[humble granite]

can i send links in here?

[placid skiff]

Yes

[vale wing]

Yes

[manic wing]

depends the link

[placid skiff]

Pastebin

[humble granite]

https://pastebin.com/R49wX80F <--- thats the error handler cog file. (error.py)
lemme paste the one for the command

[vale wing]

Does the python bot have malicious links filter btw

[vale wing]

Seems fine except it shouldn't return anything

[stable berry]

@limpid thicket

[manic wing]

you need a ) after colour

also remove the " in the colour, its an int

[limpid thicket]

I didn't paste that though.

[manic wing]

!e py print(type(0x123))

[unkempt canyon]

@manic wing :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

<class 'int'>

[slate swan]

[limpid thicket]

There isn't meant to brackets nor in a str

[stable berry]

It's not working without those

[stable berry]

Ok

[limpid thicket]

@client.command(aliases=['user','info']) 
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members = True)
async def whois(ctx, member : discord.Member):
  embed = discord.Embed(title=member.name, description=member.mention, color=0x00FFFF)
  embed.add_field(name="ID", value=str(member.id), inline=True)
  await ctx.send(embed=embed)

Just use this and then paste image of error.

[stable berry]

Me pasting this

[humble granite]

@vale wing https://pastebin.com/pem8f9qJ

[manic wing]

[vale wing]

Hm I should look at these more attentively

[manic wing]

it doesnt seem to work as it is

[vale wing]

@humble granite if you call any other command that sends something does it send that once or twice as well?

[stable berry]

Thanks duck bot worked @limpid thicket ig i copied hrlo77 s code

[humble granite]

only the one with the @commands.bot_has_permissions()

[limpid thicket]

xD, was going to say.

[vale wing]

Add another command with simple text response and test

[stable berry]

[humble granite]

okay

@vale wing this works

[placid skiff]

When you test this you do it with both bot and user without permission?

[stable berry]

Thanks ezenifix and duck ( thanks alot)

[humble granite]

UPDATE: I said it sends the message 1 time if I replace the self.create_embed with ctx.send. Now it sends that 2 times too. with reset token.

[humble granite]

the one where the bot needs perms

[placid skiff]

I still think that the problem is that you return your error handler

[humble granite]

did it already without return. still does that

[placid skiff]

The last thing that remains is that you are trying without closing the current execution 😂

[vale wing]

Better reboot your PC or restart pycharm, you might have launched a subprocess and haven't terminated it

[humble granite]

takes some time for me, ill be back

[humble granite]

just done that. still sends it 2 times. with reset token.
I've even created a on_message to print me if the bot is processing a command and it did trigger 1 time

[vale wing]

Interesting

So the new command sends it twice still?

[humble granite]

no

[placid skiff]

Do you know how to do custom checks?

[vale wing]

Only error handler?

[humble granite]

depends on wich check

[placid skiff]

Just do one which checks the permissions of your bot

[humble granite]

so I've just executed the command with a custom error and this gets called twice. it's even in the log

[placid skiff]

But no that is impossible, don't do that
The only thing that could make this happen is that you return, i know that you already tried without it but it is the only reason it does that. There is what happens: when you call the command the bot raise the bot_missing_permission error, then in your error handler you return the function which means that you return to the point where it checks bot permission, from that it goes to your command again, the bot attempts to ban the user but it doesn't have enough permission so the bot raises again bot_missing_permission error and it does again the same thing

[vale wing]

Um

Return doesn't really return to the check

If the check is failed it just raises an error and stops on working with command

[placid skiff]

It returns to the point where the function is called

To know if i'm right we can do one simple thing:
@humble granite add a for loop before you execute the command, make it in range 5, it should print 6 times the error

[slate swan]

Does anyone know how to code reaction roles?

Cus I've looked everywhere

nothing works

Use the on_(raw_)reaction_add event.

[placid skiff]

on_raw_reaction_add is better

[slate swan]

Depends

[placid skiff]

Whell the bot can't store messages in the cache while it is offline

[slate swan]

also all the code ive tried is channel dependent, meaning that it only works in 1 channel of 1 sever, how do I get around that?

[slate swan]

that's a bit of a tongue-twister topic

you need to understand that commands are context based: they'll execute differently based on the conditions met

for example, ctx.guild is not an attribute that exists inside of a dm channel context

[placid skiff]

You have to store the messages objects that use the reactions in a variable (they will not work anyway after you shut off the bot, to make them permanent you should save the message id to a database or a file, retrieve the object from the id and get again the message, channels, guilds and the roles)

[slate swan]

oh, so like a .json file?

[placid skiff]

They will work too

[slate swan]

not if you want to have a good time, no

[placid skiff]

Well to testing json is good enough

[slate swan]

json should only be used for data that doesn't require constant access

[vale wing]

@placid skiff well I just simulated his situation got everything ok
Not in cogs but normal

@bot.listen('on_command_error')
async def command_error_controller(ctx: commands.Context, error: commands.CommandError):
    print(error)
    await ctx.send(f'Error lul')
    return 'Some return whatever'```

It doesn't matter what error handler returns but typically it shouldn't return anything

[slate swan]

you shouldn't encourage using it for testing because json-like databases are not more popular than relational databases

[slate swan]

Also I have a script in place to make sure the bot never permanently goes down unless I tell it to, because I use Replit as my IDE

[vale wing]

Btw how to store a list in sqlite (besides putting a string to there and splitting it)

[slate swan]

you should really read this text to understand the implications of using json to store data in the case of a discord bot

[vale wing]

Or even better a dict

[placid skiff]

I think that is not possible lol

Sqlite doesn't have such row types

[vale wing]

@humble granite hold up check if you are adding the cog with error handler once

Maybe you've added it twice not sure if it can do anything about it

[vale wing]

What db does then

Relative one

Not json-like

[slate swan]

well what do I use instead of json as a database?

[vale wing]

sqlite3

Good for starters

If you don't wanna learn sql you can use a wrapper, I actually have one published on my github (but its functionality is very limited) maybe there are other

[placid skiff]

Dunno

I use sqlite too lol

[vale wing]

Seems like postgre does

As I look at its codes they seem complicated but I should learn it most likely

Omg it can even store jsons inside

Postgre seems epic

[slate swan]

how do I use SQLite in my bot

[placid skiff]

There is a package which turns python class into sql tables, i don't remember his name btw you add what database you are using and it does it automatically without you write any query

[vale wing]

I can implement that thing by myself but thanks

[placid skiff]

I think that you and i watched the same tutorial xD

[vale wing]

I didn't actually watch tutorials I read sqlite docs

[placid skiff]

😂

[vale wing]

You would have to learn about SQL a bit. Or you could be the first user of my package (maybe such ones and better ones already exist but idk), you may check it out here https://github.com/Exenifix/ExenDB

Why would I name it db

[frank tartan]

How can I make it so when someone presses a button, it checks if they send the message. If they didn't send the message, it privetly sends them a message saying that its not for them

i hope that makes sense

[vale wing]

You mean make a button for specified person?

Alright first tell us what library do you use

[frank tartan]

yes

[frank tartan]

like discord.py or pycord?

[vale wing]

Delete it there's token

And regenerate the token immediately

I mean delete the image from here lol

[vale wing]

Those are 2 different ones lol

Just regenerate it

[frank tartan]

i think i use both... stuff from both work in my code

[quick gust]

that's extremely bad, pycord is a fork, not an additional package for discord.py. you should only use one lib

[frank tartan]

ok nice

so can someone answer my question?

[final iron]

Can we see the code?

[vale wing]

@frank tartan sorry, but I personally don't know about pycord. In dpy 2.0 and disnake you can overwrite interaction_check method for your class inheriting View

[quick gust]

(please blur the token again while sending ss of code)

[vale wing]

Like

[frank tartan]

thats how i am doing buttons

[vale wing]

Forgor

!d discord.ui.View.interaction_check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.interaction\_check

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

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

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

The default implementation of this returns `True`.

Note

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

[vale wing]

Like this, maybe the same thing is in pycord

[quick gust]

try statements must be followed with an except statement, u have no except statement and so it's giving an error

[frank tartan]

async def chan_reply(interaction):
        await interaction_check(interaction)
            await ctx.reply("""```

like that?

[vale wing]

Nope lemme show you

class CustomViewClass(discord.ui.View):
  ... #init stuff and buttons

  async def interaction_check(self, interaction):
    #this should return True if the interaction author is valid```

[frank tartan]

i dont use cogs

[vale wing]

It's not a cog ok

[frank tartan]

but it looks like cogs

[quick gust]

That doesn't require a cog

[vale wing]

It is a class

[quick gust]

Do you know what a cog is?

[frank tartan]

not really, i just know that alot of ppl use them but i dont

[vale wing]

Cog is a class but it is a different class lol

[frank tartan]

so would that replace what i currently have?

[quick gust]

Cogs are just classes as Exenifix said, it's a subclass of commands.Cog and here we are subclassing discord.ui.View

[frank tartan]

ok

[vale wing]

What do you currently have

I recommend you to check the examples in pycord repo
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py

[frank tartan]

i have alot of buttons, i will show you one of them

msg_button = Button(label='Message', style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)

async def msg_reply(interaction):
  await ctx.reply("""
---𝗠𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀---

sendMSG <message> - has the bot send a message that you chose.

ssendMSG <message> - sends a message that you choose. (requires manage_messages permission)

msg_button.callback = msg_reply

view = View()
view.add_item(msg_button)

await ctx.send("What commands would you like to view?", view=view)

[vale wing]

Oh lol

[vale wing]

Look at those examples, custom views are way more convenient

[frank tartan]

;-; ok

[slate swan]

i know about buttons

[vale wing]

Buttons gud

[slate swan]

oh it didnt take self

fair

[vale wing]

Yeah self missing lol

[slate swan]

yeah yeah, singing channelagenalgnel

that return type was wrong how is that optional

[slate swan]

why dont you subclass view 😔

View*

and yes

[slate swan]

it was correct

it might return None or the connection

[frank tartan]

cuz this is what the tutorial i folllowed said to do

ik

[slate swan]

how?

[slate swan]

bad tutorial tbh

[vale wing]

Follow example

[frank tartan]

it was the most popular tutorial i found -_-

[slate swan]

well you see the else might not execute

so the function would return None

else it would return the connection.commit()

[vale wing]

!e

print("Most popular" != "Correct one")```

[unkempt canyon]

@vale wing :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

True

[vale wing]

Even python bot says

[slate swan]

mind linking the video ?

[slate swan]

ah ic lol

[frank tartan]

i didnt save it

[slate swan]

😳

[slate swan]

i'd never typehint stuff wrongly

subclassing view is better tbh

[vale wing]

^ and by a lot

[slate swan]

or would you

yeah i just did

😭

i typehinted the discord.bot object as commands.object

moving on

[frank tartan]

that isnt helping -_-

[vale wing]

Seriously?

[slate swan]

what do you need help with?

[vale wing]

I think they really help

Actually I learned that from examples

[slate swan]

yeah i learned from those examples

[frank tartan]

howwww

[slate swan]

its just subclassing a class lol

[vale wing]

Now I have my own beautiful subclass that does everything I need

[slate swan]

not better than mine tbh

[frank tartan]

;-;

[slate swan]

please activate windows

LMAO

[slate swan]

pretty easy and good

[vale wing]

Lemao

[slate swan]

h-how do you live with that shit on the corner at all times

i can't wrap my head around it

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

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:

[vale wing]

I tried to remove it manually but it came back

[frank tartan]

lemme grab my laptop and flex

[slate swan]

i was forced to windows11

alr let's not delve too deep into off topic

[vale wing]

Ok #Win11FlexGang

[vale wing]

Yes

[slate swan]

my nice view

[vale wing]

Looks nice

[slate swan]

those embeds are disgusting

[slate swan]

cant do much about them tbh

[slate swan]

yes you can

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Context' object has no attribute 'guild_id'

what can i do then

[frank tartan]

;-; i came with a question and now i have to re-do everything ;-;

[slate swan]

discord.embed().set_image(url=None)

smh no need to set it on the var

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.guild

Returns the guild associated with this context’s command. None if not available.

[vale wing]

Has id

[slate swan]

me with 2 monitors and a 3060🚶

[slate swan]

well subclassing button is better for one button, if you wanted more than one you can subclass view

[frank tartan]

i have 2 monitors on my pc

[vale wing]

Me with GT 710

[slate swan]

niceee

[slate swan]

🏃

[slate swan]

where did i even use set_image ?

[frank tartan]

can you link a tutorial on yt?

i learn better from those

[slate swan]

it was a example smh

[slate swan]

dont think their is

[frank tartan]

;-;

[slate swan]

why give me a example of something i didnt even use

[slate swan]

you can use it with the footer

[vale wing]

Hold up what

[slate swan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNUuYEWGOxA&t=170s this looks good

[slate swan]

i've used more than one footer

[vale wing]

Does it return the embed itself on call

[frank tartan]

THATS THE FUCKING VIDEO I WATCHED IN THE FIRST PLACE

[vale wing]

Forgor

[slate swan]

use it

[vale wing]

!d discord.Embed.add_field

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.add\_field

add_field(*, name, value, inline=True)```
Adds a field to the embed object.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

[vale wing]

WOAH

IT REALLY RETURNS THE EMBED LMAO

Gotta rewrite everything ig

[slate swan]

[frank tartan]

@vale wing heres the video

[slate swan]

what they didnt isnt good practice tbh

[vale wing]

From 16.00

[slate swan]

imagine converting something like this applying their logic

[frank tartan]

???

[slate swan]

let him watch the full video

looks more better imo

[vale wing]

I mean from 16.00 he tells about subclassing

[slate swan]

lmao you want it to look like

[vale wing]

Fluent-style chaining?

[frank tartan]

frick did i not watch teh whole video?

[vale wing]

It is more of javascript and java

[slate swan]

        await interaction.message.edit(embed=discord.Embed(title="Mod helping command", color=Colors.gray).add_field(name="Banning",value=f'{prefix}Ban "{prefix}ban <@{BOTNAME}> reason"\n{prefix}pban `deletes the user messages and ban them` "{prefix}pban <@{BOTNAME}>"\n{prefix}unban "{prefix}unban <@{BOTNAME}>"',inline=False,).add_field(name="kick", value=f'{prefix}kick "{prefix}kick <@{BOTNAME}>"', inline=False).add_field(name="mute",value=f'{prefix}mute "{prefix}mute <@{BOTNAME}>"\n{prefix}unmute "{prefix}unmute <@{BOTNAME}>',
inline=False,).set_thumbnail(url=self.ctx.guild.icon.url))```

[vale wing]

Btw have you ever seen discord bot written on java (it looks very ugly imho)

[slate swan]

imagine writing that

imagine not writing that

[slate swan]

looks overcomplicated imo

[slate swan]

totally readable

[vale wing]

Java itself is good but discord bot written on java is ugly in terms of code

[slate swan]

ikr

[vale wing]

In terms of memory it might be slightly better tho

[slate swan]

kotlin works so well for discord bots though

y'all are just used to python

[slate swan]

its not, one variable wont consume as much as you think

[slate swan]

the heck is kotlin

[slate swan]

programming language for the JVM

[vale wing]

Language

[slate swan]

not about storage but about style tbh

[slate swan]

ah ic

[vale wing]

Still it will consume some memory

But in this scale doesn't matter I agree

[slate swan]

i mean, sure, separating this isn't gonna be any more efficient but

holy shit, that is some ugly looking code

[velvet tinsel]

Jetbrains uses it for their student programs

[vale wing]

Just looked at kord wrapper looks good

[slate swan]

[vale wing]

Idk kotlin tho java only 💀

[velvet tinsel]

I tried to enroll before realizing I would reveal where I live

and that won't look good on my commits

I can probably persuade the headmaster to enroll at gunpoin-

[slate swan]

yeah, kord is great

[vale wing]

unlike jda

[hoary cargo]

[prime marten]

I made a leaderboard command with sqlite3 and am struggling to make it display the leaderboards per server/guild. Atm it shows a global leaderboard. Does anyone have any knowledge on this?

    async def lb(self, ctx):
        db = sqlite3.connect('kof_db.sqlite')
        cursor = db.cursor()
        cursor.execute(
            f"SELECT member_id, wallet, bank from main ORDER BY bank DESC LIMIT 5 ")
        result = cursor.fetchall()
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Leaderboards", colour=discord.Colour.orange())
        for i, x in enumerate(result, 1):
            embed.add_field(name=f"#{i}", value=f"<@{str(x[0])}> with :moneybag: **{str(x[2])}**",
                            inline=False)
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)
        cursor.close()
        db.close()```

[hoary cargo]

no code no help

[vale wing]

Depends how you store them in your database

It is more db related question but let us see anyway

@prime marten what the database looks like

[quick gust]

why f-strings?

[prime marten]

i only recently added the guild_id column so this might be a problem

[vale wing]

Only one table?

[prime marten]

im new to this 🥲

[slate swan]

how do you find a tables data like that im not sure

[vale wing]

I mean I store user and member data in separated ones

[prime marten]

hmm

[vale wing]

Quick tip, you can select total funds like this iirc

SELECT wallet+bank AS money ... ORDER BY money DESC```

[slate swan]

[vale wing]

Nice

[slate swan]

really

real mature

oh dang my IDE has a built in database

well that makes things easier

[limpid thicket]

Can someone help?

[desert heart]

If you Union it with str it should be able to accept any input.

Why do you want to do it like this though?

[limpid thicket]

Ah so, my ticket command has 4 options. open, close, add and remove with add and remove both accepting a discord.Member object while open and close don't however if you add another argument to the open and close, since they are all part of the same command (which is what I wanted), it errors because it isn't a discord.Member when I preferably just want it to ignore that argument since it's not required for those two.

I mean unless there is a way around this? But I've just had no clue, only thing I could come up with.

[desert heart]

yeah there is a better way. sounds like you want to have subcommands

[limpid thicket]

How can I do that?

Atm I'm using arguments and if statements.

[desert heart]

Make a command group, and then add commands to that group

[slate swan]

hello i have a problem this is the code:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import test

cogs = [test]
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix ='!m',intents = discord.Intents.all())
for i in range(len(cogs)):
  cogs[i].setup()



client.run("TOKEN")```
This is the error
```Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 6, in <module>
    client = commands.Bot(command_prefix ='!m',intents = discord.Intents.all())
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Intents'```

discord is somehow undefined

idk how

import intents

[slate swan]

let me try

from discord import Intents

[desert heart]

Docs don't seem to have a good example of this. basically something like
@commands.group()
async def foo():
...
@foo.command()
async def open(...):

[limpid thicket]

Thanks, I'll have a try!

[slate swan]

what are command groups for?

[desert heart]

For nesting commands

[slate swan]

ah ic ty

[desert heart]

You are likely using an older version of the library

Try updating it

[slate swan]

i am using replit

[desert heart]

Is it not possible to update dependencies on replit?

[slate swan]

i think they are latest versions

[desert heart]

Do print(discord.__version__) what is it?

[slate swan]

wait replit is so dog water that my system crashed for stopping the program

but free host

[slate swan]

1.7.3

and i still have the same error

[desert heart]

I don't know. That doesn't make sense.

[slate swan]

fr

i tried running it a couple of times

but same thing

[vale wing]

@slate swan check these files maybe you should edit them, haven't ever used replit but seems like the issue is there

[slate swan]

what can the issue be

[vale wing]

Wrong dependency version for example

Here's how I have it

[slate swan]

ooooo ok

[vale wing]

Also here

[slate swan]

ok

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_message\_delete

discord.on_message_delete(message)```
Called when a message is deleted. If the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the [`max_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") parameter or use the [`on_raw_message_delete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_raw_message_delete "discord.on_raw_message_delete") event instead.

!indents

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[limpid thicket]

With sub commands I would have to define a function 4 times right? I can't like make it so the function is accessible by all 4 sub commands without being fully global.

[jade tartan]

How long does it take to answer someone in #web-development

[full lily]

can you give an example

I'm not sure of any scenarion where you would need to define the same func 4 times

[limpid thicket]

I used to use the method of creating subcommands via a single @client.command() and if statements from the arguments passed however since the subcommands are each in their own function async def sub_command(ctx): for example, I wouldn't be able for all the sub commands to use the same function will I and that's without making it completely global for the whole code.

[full lily]

I don't really know what you mean

you wanted to invoke a subcommand from the main command?

there's a commands.group decorator too, for making commands and subcommands, by the way

[cloud dawn]

In Disnake params would it be possible to disallow certain characters?

[full lily]

maybe a custom converter

[cloud dawn]

Good idea, i'll start trying right away.

[full lily]

ping me if you're stuck

so ```py

re = list(bot.guilds)
for i in range (le):
em.add_field(name=str(i),value=re[i]["name"],inline=False)
await ctx.send(embed=em)

anything wrong in my code?

[small igloo]

ok, u break ||kinda|| yt law (YTDL), but just add some space before "else"

[slate swan]

dpy doesnt have a law lol hes just breaking yt tos which if you break yt tos you break discord tos

ther, fixed

[cloud dawn]

@full lily Not possible :( Discord API only allows certain types so no custom checks to deny them from using the slash command. You can manipulate the outcome with the converter but what they inputted will still be send since it does count as a string.

[cinder breach]

re[i]["name"]

re[i] is a Guild object, the attributes are accessed like this re[i].name
can you try this

[small igloo]

lemme try

fk, now lag

[full lily]

Yes but you can raise an error to stop command invocation

[small igloo]

niceeeeeee it works, tysm

[full lily]

OH

a slash command!?

[cloud dawn]

I have no idea how to do that.

[cloud dawn]

Yeah

I got a regular check now with regex

But I want their Discord to shake with shame if them inputting it wrong.

[full lily]

I've no clue abt slash commands

What's the issue though?

[cloud dawn]

Converter was worth the try though

[full lily]

So the command will have to go through either way, but you can tell the command what to do with the arguments

[cloud dawn]

Got this rn https://github.com/Pandabweer/dispy-discord-bot/blob/main/exts/info/pypi.py

what is aiio http

[cloud dawn]

Mina casually deletes discord bots

[final iron]

Use aiohttp

[unkempt canyon]

aiohttp v3.8.1

Async http client/server framework (asyncio)

[green bluff]

do i just do import

[final iron]

Yes

Actually

[green bluff]

aiio

[final iron]

Then import it

[green bluff]

done

now where do i use it

[final iron]

Instead of requests

[crisp bloom]

hey guys I am having a trouble with my bot again

[cloud dawn]

[crisp bloom]

why doesnt this work? it should delete messages if they are all caps

[final iron]

Basically anywhere you have requests, you should replace it with aiohttp

[crisp bloom]

it used to work but doesnt anymore

[green bluff]

oh okay

thanks lemme try run

[slate swan]

Mmm errors? Is there any error

[slate swan]

doesnt isupper()
make message content all caps?

[final iron]

!d str.isupper

[unkempt canyon]

str.isupper

str.isupper()```
Return `True` if all cased characters [4](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#id15) in the string are uppercase and there is at least one cased character, `False` otherwise.

```py
>>> 'BANANA'.isupper()
True
>>> 'banana'.isupper()
False
>>> 'baNana'.isupper()
False
>>> ' '.isupper()
False

[cloud dawn]

No it returns a bool

[slate swan]

ah ic

[final iron]

thats .upper()

[slate swan]

yeah sorry got confused

[green bluff]

uhh i didnt get any response from the bot

[slate swan]

Mmm try message.content.isupper() == True since isupper returns a bool

[green bluff]

changed code to this

[slate swan]

Oop wrong reply

[green bluff]

for me?

[slate swan]

No

For @crisp bloom

[cloud dawn]

Wouldn't make any sense

and when i just do print(r.json()) it returns with malformed uuid

[slate swan]

add ctx before reason

async def stat(ctx, reason)

[green bluff]

okay sure

also i had to go to sleep yesterday so thats why i didnt respond if u tried to reach me

but ctx is not accesed by pylance

should i do await ctx.send

[slate swan]

what?

i'm telling you to add context to the list of arguments on the function definition

otherwise you're passing ctx as reason and your request returns "malformed UUID" because of that

[green bluff]

?

[slate swan]

that's what you want, isn't it?

[green bluff]

nope

[slate swan]

that's an unix timestamp

[wary zenith]

someone know how to make a bot send an email

[slate swan]

it's written in your code though

[green bluff]

how do i split that into time

like how do i make that into readable time

[tulip oracle]

my discord bots ping is 0.04 but is stupidly slow. will this be a problem with my host?

[slate swan]

use the datetime module with utcfromtimestamp and strftime

[cloud dawn]

Email? What..

[slate swan]

ah shit I gotta go to the bathroom

[slate swan]

print(f"<t:{r.jaon()["player"]["lastlogin"] }:d>")

[green bluff]

sure but how would i do that

[slate swan]

why do we needed to know that

[cloud dawn]

40ms is pretty decent.

[slate swan]

have a good one tho lol

<t:18638:d>

[tulip oracle]

datetime.utcfromtimestamp()

[cloud dawn]

<t:1641889126926:R>

[tulip oracle]

no i mean like it is stupidly slow. but the bot latency from the api is quick. so it must be my host?

[cloud dawn]

Might not be a valid date

[green bluff]

@cloud dawn

[cloud dawn]

Wdym slow?

[green bluff]

theres an eroor

error

oh wait

[slate swan]

There is 2 f

[green bluff]

that was baby criminal oops

[slate swan]

And

[green bluff]

ye removed the 2 fs

[slate swan]

Add {}

💀

[green bluff]

where to the player and ;ast login

[slate swan]

like this print(f"<t:{r.jaon()["player"]["lastlogin"] }:d>")

[cloud dawn]

🥣

[slate swan]

[green bluff]

should i try it

[final iron]

Use aiohttp unless you want your bot freezing when someone runs the command

[cloud dawn]

We said that 20 min ago smh

[wary zenith]

i was pretty straightforward

[green bluff]

bot didnt respond

[final iron]

He's not listening I guess

[green bluff]

no i tried it

[final iron]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[green bluff]

bot didnt respond

with anything

[final iron]

You most likely did it incorrectly

[slate swan]

💀

[cloud dawn]

This server doesn't allow hiring of any kind.

[green bluff]

no @slate swan just that year is wrong

[wary zenith]

that has nothing to do with how to make a bot that sends emails

[green bluff]

how do i fix that

[cloud dawn]

I said this wasn't a valid date 5 min ago

[wary zenith]

@client.command()
async def email(ctx, sender, recipient, subject, *, body):
  global address, password
  if "`" in body:
    body = body.strip("`")
  message = MIMEMultipart()
  message["From"] = sender
  message["To"] = recipient
  message["Subject"] = subject
  message.attach(MIMEText(body, 'plain'))
  address = sender
  dm = await ctx.author.create_dm()
  await dm.send("Send me the password for your email.")
  msg = await client.wait_for("message", check=lambda m: m.channel.type == discord.ChannelType.private)
  password = str(msg.content)

  embed = discord.Embed(title=f"From: {sender}", discription=f"""To: {recipient}
  Subject: {subject}
  Body: 
  {body}""", color = discord.Color.blue())
  await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[slate swan]

🤷🏾well

[green bluff]

i changed requests to aiohtttp

[cloud dawn]

!global

[unkempt canyon]

When adding functions or classes to a program, it can be tempting to reference inaccessible variables by declaring them as global. Doing this can result in code that is harder to read, debug and test. Instead of using globals, pass variables or objects as parameters and receive return values.

Instead of writing

def update_score():
    global score, roll
    score = score + roll
update_score()

do this instead

def update_score(score, roll):
    return score + roll
score = update_score(score, roll)

For in-depth explanations on why global variables are bad news in a variety of situations, see this Stack Overflow answer.

[final iron]

Not correctly

[green bluff]

Alright just tell me who should i listen top

3 ppl are helping me

[final iron]

Everyone 🧍

[green bluff]

i will listen to u the whole way

ok then

do u want me to change it back to aiohttp

current code

[cloud dawn]

!blocking

[unkempt canyon]

Why do we need asynchronous programming?
Imagine that you're coding a Discord bot and every time somebody uses a command, you need to get some information from a database. But there's a catch: the database servers are acting up today and take a whole 10 seconds to respond. If you do not use asynchronous methods, your whole bot will stop running until it gets a response from the database. How do you fix this? Asynchronous programming.

What is asynchronous programming?
An asynchronous program utilises the async and await keywords. An asynchronous program pauses what it's doing and does something else whilst it waits for some third-party service to complete whatever it's supposed to do. Any code within an async context manager or function marked with the await keyword indicates to Python, that whilst this operation is being completed, it can do something else. For example:

import discord

# Bunch of bot code

async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("Pong!")

What does the term "blocking" mean?
A blocking operation is wherever you do something without awaiting it. This tells Python that this step must be completed before it can do anything else. Common examples of blocking operations, as simple as they may seem, include: outputting text, adding two numbers and appending an item onto a list. Most common Python libraries have an asynchronous version available to use in asynchronous contexts.

async libraries
The standard async library - asyncio
Asynchronous web requests - aiohttp
Talking to PostgreSQL asynchronously - asyncpg
MongoDB interactions asynchronously - motor

[wary zenith]

i mean my global statement is necessary

[cloud dawn]

They are never necessary.

[final iron]

Nice job leaking your key 🧍

[green bluff]

no ill reset it ofc

[wary zenith]

i use the global variables outside of the func

[green bluff]

anyways the api key literally comes with no powers except from veiwing stats

u cant really do much

[cloud dawn]

Send me the password for your email. kinda sus

[green bluff]

with that key

[wary zenith]

ik but

its just for me and my friends

and its a dm

[cloud dawn]

[wary zenith]

pls no fbi

[slate swan]

I should use motor then

[cloud dawn]

You haven't lmao

attack

[final iron]

They have a key for a reason

[slate swan]

Im using pymongo

[green bluff]

ik ill reset it

[final iron]

There is most likely a punishment for spamming requests

[green bluff]

spamming reqs?

[cloud dawn]

Not async ;-;

[slate swan]

Ye ik

[cloud dawn]

Special.. punishment..

[final iron]

🤨

[green bluff]

if u really want me to reset it ill do that but anything else u can help me with

[cloud dawn]

Most likely ratelimit (i hope)

[slate swan]

Imma search up for motor docs😭

[wary zenith]

as you can see, the code has no way to keep the persons password

[cloud dawn]

!pypi motor

[unkempt canyon]

motor v2.5.1

Non-blocking MongoDB driver for Tornado or asyncio

[cloud dawn]

Non-blocking MongoDB driver :3

[cloud dawn]

I could overwrite the str function to just fetch the password lmao

[slate swan]

there is some diffrence between pymongo and motor

[deep torrent]

Should I ask for help with discord bots here or go to a help channel?

[slate swan]

here

[vast gale]

@slate swan did you sleep

[deep torrent]

Okay, so I was wondering if there is a way to change everyone's nickname on the server all at once but choosing a random name from a txt file

[final iron]

Oh seems like I accidentally entered the wrong class

[green bluff]

async def stat(ctx, reason):
    r = requests.get(f"https://api.hypixel.net/player?uuid={reason}&key=api", headers={'content-type': 'application/json'})
    await ctx.send(f'<t:{r.json()["player"]["lastLogin"]}:d>')```

[slate swan]

9hours yes

[final iron]

This is how to get rate limited 101

[green bluff]

there reset it

[final iron]

I should be in cogs

[green bluff]

can u pls help now

[final iron]

🚶

[vast gale]

good that makes one of us

[slate swan]

ikr

[vast gale]

I slept for 3 or so hours

[final iron]

Any reason you're not using a wrapper?

[green bluff]

im using disnake is that a wrapper

[final iron]

Hypixel api wrapper

https://hypixel.net/threads/hypixel-api-wrappers-code-creations-discord.1387746/

[vast gale]

because they don't need it for hypixel? they want the one request and it's perfectly fine to not use a wrapper

[deep torrent]

Just let me know if this is a possibility I can figure it out myself I just need a little nudge in the right direction

[slate swan]

you don't need to use a wrapper for everything..

[vast gale]

yeah, it's possible

[slate swan]

oof

[green bluff]

im not using any hypixel wrapper

[final iron]

No offense to them but this seems complicated for them

imo it would be simpler to just use a wrapper

[vast gale]

well if you know of a wrapper it's possible to compare... but otherwise..

[deep torrent]

Awesome! thanks for letting me know.

[slate swan]

not at once, no, but doing that is certainly possible

[green bluff]

which wrapper should i use then

[final iron]

Just sent a list

[final iron]

@green bluff

[deep torrent]

Okay

[green bluff]

so do pip install the wrapper

[final iron]

Yes

isinstance will check if both objects are of the same type, so your check here will always return true

[green bluff]

install one of thesse?

[final iron]

Read what was said above that table

[green bluff]

so do i get the darkflame one

[slate swan]

you can just do return ctx.channel == channel

[green bluff]

but what is it called

what do i pip install

ill just follow the link

[slate swan]

!pypi asyncpixel

[unkempt canyon]

asyncpixel v1.3.0

Asyncpixel

[slate swan]

@final iron you're probably just getting him into more trouble with this wrapper, it's async and he will need to adapt for that

[green bluff]

done

do i need to import it

[slate swan]

Ye

[green bluff]

wait but whats wrong with my current code

it says the date

[final iron]

He would need to adapt his current system to async anyway

[green bluff]

the date is slightly wrong tho

[final iron]

How wrong?

[slate swan]

it's your responsibility to help him then

[green bluff]

very wrong but when i hover my mouse over it its the right date

[wary zenith]

what do i do with this

[green bluff]

the time is right

[slate swan]

the one converting that unix timestamp to a date is discord, you can't control it

[wary zenith]

you cant

i dont think atleast

[final iron]

Did you leak your key again?

[green bluff]

omg

[wary zenith]

ur done 🤣

[green bluff]

just pls tell me whats worng

[slate swan]

[final iron]

🧍

[vast gale]

you can

the Unix time needs to be in scale with 1/1/1970

[wary zenith]

epoch iirc

[vast gale]

that's how discord calculates those

yep

[slate swan]

i'm not sure what's wrong then

[slate swan]

Same here

[green bluff]

bruh why does this always happen to me

it even happened to my giveaway command never responded till like an hour of fixing

[wary zenith]

google loves to bother me

let my program work pls

you literally are meant to work with this api

yk what, i should stop trying to do this.

i feel like im gonna lock myself out of my account

[tulip oracle]

my ping is averaging at around 500ms

my host averaging at around 14ms

is there a solid way to fix. or possible reasons for delayed response. other than discord api being globally slow

[slate swan]

maybe your wifi is slow

[wary zenith]

my ms isnt that high

[slate swan]

it really depends on allot of stuff

[wary zenith]

and i have terrible wifi

[tulip oracle]

im pretty sure it doesnt depend on personal wifi

[wary zenith]

any game i join has at the very least 500 ping

[tulip oracle]

and my wifi isnt slow

[slate swan]

it does?

why wouldnt

[wary zenith]

???

[tulip oracle]

ok what would you consider slow wifi enough to affect my bots ping?

just because this is slowest ive seen it for about 3 years

[slate swan]

high traffic will

[wary zenith]

yep

you said 3 years

[tulip oracle]

i dont host this bot my self though. it is slow in response no matter who uses a command

[wary zenith]

you probably have a pretty big bot

and is your wrapper async?

[tulip oracle]

of course

[wary zenith]

which statement are you refering too

to*

[tulip oracle]

well both is true

big in terms of loops and events and command usage

[slate swan]

Idk wut to say but wut host you're hosting ur bot

[wary zenith]

and in users as well?

[tulip oracle]

no its only for a 14k server

[wary zenith]

14k is quite a bit

also the amount of code you have in your program can cause it to move slower than usual

[tulip oracle]

the host isnt a problem as i said the server is averaging a 14ms response time

[tulip oracle]

might be it if true

[wary zenith]

also if you are opening a bunch of webpages over and over again

[tulip oracle]

one cog file has 3k or so lines of code

webpages no there is a few api requests looped per second

not to discord*

[slate swan]

well idk. When heroku's dynos about to run out the bot comes slow

[tulip oracle]

na i dont use heroku

but yeah server isnt a problem

[stark lintel]

i got an odd question for someone good with APIs

[slate swan]

wdym by odd and is it related to this channel

[stark lintel]

Yes

[slate swan]

then send it

[stark lintel]

Ill explain after dinner

[drifting arrow]

Who do I speak to about suggesting another bot hosting service?

to add to the list

[green bluff]

if u want a free one the best one is heroku, its actually easy to use aswell and if u need help setting up i can help u ive set it up aswell

[drifting arrow]

That's not what I meant.

[green bluff]

o ok

[drifting arrow]

I found a bot hosting service that's not on the list and want to suggest it be added to said list

[green bluff]

what list

[green bluff]

ah

[weary mirage]

how do I write exceptions for errors?

like if somebody is missing a role

[slate swan]

Mine is 1.2k ping

usually

[wary zenith]

ok

[green bluff]

a game

r u sure its like 1.2 k ping

[fickle onyx]

I imagine that discord and its bots can handle utf-8 characters right?

[sage otter]

yes. that do be the standard for most platforms.

[sage otter]

What’s it called

[drifting arrow]

pebblehost

I've been using it for a few weeks for my bot and it's quite reliable and fast so far

[sage otter]

Is it a vps or something?

Or is it just some panel you get to upload files onto and what not.

[drifting arrow]

Not a VPS. Just a panel to upload bots. it has a few features like MySQL etc

i can send screenshots if you want to look?

[pliant gulch]

inb4 Pterodactyl panel

[sage otter]

That’s probably what it is tbh.

[drifting arrow]

idk what that is @pliant gulch

Yes I googled it @pliant gulch and yes

[pliant gulch]

Called it
