discord-bots

[left crater]

ah ok

[slate swan]

Send the message to the user before banning the user.

[left crater]

ok

it is sending the message before banning them

await member.send(message)
await member.ban(reason=reason)

[mental kraken]

Seems like you're responding to a timed out interaction or respond twice
Make sure that your autocomplete function is fast enough

[slate swan]

why add a reason value when you can add a defualt value in params

(reason="Being bad!")
has a default value of a string

[shy elm]

Add the module pip install dnspython

[slate swan]

You need help?

[sage niche]

Hey does anyone have a great way to implement a discord bot with a website,
the idea is that u click a button on a website to get a specific role on the discord server

[tawdry perch]

in theory you can make a web app send commands to bot, like a web app running along bot. But I'm not sure if that would work 100%

[sage niche]

hmm yeah this could work… but i’m looking for more efficient ways tbh

[tawdry perch]

what would be the efficient way?

You could just trigger a function on your discord bot that would be ran when ever you want

[sage niche]

how do I trigger a command from a website?

[tawdry perch]

The method I was thinking depends a lot of the way you have the web app designed

[sage niche]

the issue is I didn’t design it myself 😖

[tawdry perch]

:/

[sage niche]

im not a web dev

so i’m quite clueless rn

[tawdry perch]

you would need a user ID to be passed smh at least

you could do that via OAuth2

[sage niche]

yeah… well the easiest way would be to send a message in a discord channel using a simple webhook that the discord bot catches and then assigns the role

However im not sure if this can be exploited easily or if it would work 100% of time

[tawdry perch]

gl figuring it out

[sage niche]

thx 😵‍💫

[slate swan]

hello. I want to make a command with 2 buttons and when you press the 1st it starts a timer and when click the 2nd it end and gives that time. I know how to make the buttons but no how to start the timer

[tawdry perch]

make the first button take current time, second button take the current time as well (when clicked) and then subtract them

[slate swan]

good idea. lemme try it!

[tawdry perch]

👍.

[slate swan]

so i did this. ```python
@nextcord.ui.button(label=" ", style=nextcord.ButtonStyle.green)
async def on(self, button: nextcord.ui.Button, interaction: nextcord.Interaction):
user = interaction.user
start_time = time.time()
emb2=nextcord.Embed(title="🟢 On Duty", description=f"{user.mention} Μόλις μπήκες σε υπηρεσία. Πάτα το κόκκινο κουμπί για να βγεις.", color=color, timestamp=datetime.now())
emb2.set_author(name=user.name, icon_url=user.avatar.url)
await interaction.response.send_message(embed=emb2, ephemeral=True)

        @nextcord.ui.button(label=" ", style=nextcord.ButtonStyle.red)
        async def off(self, button: nextcord.ui.Button, interaction: nextcord.Interaction):
                user = interaction.user
                end_time = time.time()
                time_lapsed = end_time - start_time
                emb2=nextcord.Embed(title="🔴 Off Duty", description=f"{user.mention} βγήκες από υπηρεσία. Ο χρόνος που ήσουν online είναι: {time_lapsed}.", color=color, timestamp=datetime.now())
                emb2.set_author(name=user.name, icon_url=user.avatar.url)
                await interaction.response.send_message(embed=emb2, ephemeral=True)

[tawdry perch]

it worked?

[slate swan]

yessss

[tawdry perch]

nice!

[quick gust]

Nevermind (sorry for the ping The Lost Programmer)

[earnest jungle]

Why this programm is not working

import telebot
token='xxx'
bot=telebot.TeleBot(token)
keybord1 = telebot.types.ReplyKeyboardMarkup(True)
keybord1.row('1','2')
@bot.message_handler(commands=['start'])

   bot.send_message(message.chat.id,'Привет')
@bot.message_handler(content_types=['text'])
def send_text(message):
   message.text.lower()
   if message.text == 'Привет':
       bot.send_message(message.chat.id, 'Прив', reply_markup=keybord1)

[maiden fable]

Uhhh

#❓｜how-to-get-help

U can use isinstance

if isinstance(channel, discord.VoiceChannel):

[jovial storm]

how do you sense when a new message is entered by a specific user?

[cloud dawn]

sense hmm

[jovial storm]

how do you code it

[cloud dawn]

wdym by new?

[slate swan]

Exactly

[jovial storm]

so like

if i send a command then it responds and it waits for my response

[slate swan]

bot.wait_for("message", ...)

[rocky trench]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def unwarn(ctx, member : discord.Member = None, position = None):
    y = json.load(open('warns.json'))
    reasons = y[str(member.id)]['reasons']
    position -= 1
    del reasons[position] ```discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

[slate swan]

@jovial storm

[rocky trench]

I'm trying to pop the reason mentioned out (for example unwarn @rocky trench 1

[slate swan]

position seems to be a string

[rocky trench]

any idea how to fix?

in dpy they ignoring me or sum lol

[slate swan]

convert to int

[cloud dawn]

!d disnake.CategoryChannel.is_nsfw

[slate swan]

because basic error

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.CategoryChannel.is\_nsfw

is_nsfw()```
Checks if the category is NSFW.

[rocky trench]

probably

[cloud dawn]

!d disnake.Guild.rules_channel

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Guild.rules\_channel

property rules_channel: Optional[disnake.channel.TextChannel]```
Return’s the guild’s channel used for the rules. The guild must be a Community guild.

If no channel is set, then this returns `None`.

New in version 1.3.

[slate swan]

they tend to be less friendly to people who don't bother learning python before making bots

[rocky trench]

so what would I need to change? I'm a self learnt coder and didnt really use that before

[slate swan]

I've observed

[rocky trench]

I learnt it, i just feel like bc I was helping sum new guys chat was getting spammed away

[slate swan]

convert position into int

position = int(position)

[rocky trench]

ok

[cloud dawn]

!d disnake.StageChannel

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.StageChannel

class disnake.StageChannel```
Represents a Discord guild stage channel.

New in version 1.7.

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 the channel’s name.

[rocky trench]

the error has left, doesnt do what I want yet tho

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.StoreChannel

class disnake.StoreChannel```
Represents a Discord guild store 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 the channel’s name.

[rocky trench]

i wanted it to pop out the first reason

so I say 1, pops out first

thats why I did position -=1

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def unwarn(ctx, member : discord.Member = None, position = None):
    y = json.load(open('warns.json'))
    reasons = y[str(member.id)]['reasons']
    position = int(position)
    position -= 1
    del reasons[position] ```

[slate swan]

what are you doing lol

[rocky trench]

trying to remove a warning

[cloud dawn]

some_dict[some_dict.keys()[0]]

[slate swan]

del wouldn't do that

if you want to remove it from a database

[rocky trench]

its json file

[slate swan]

which contains what

a dictionary?

[cloud dawn]

Just del the key

[rocky trench]

yh

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def unwarn(ctx, member : discord.Member = None, position = None):
    y = json.load(open('warns.json'))
    reasons = y[str(member.id)]['reasons']
    position = int(position)
    position -= 1
    reasons.pop(position) ```

pop is for txt file tho ig?

[slate swan]

pop deletes an elem and returns it

I believe

[rocky trench]

well it didnt work either

[slate swan]

idk what the best approach is but I'd personally remove the warning and then rewrite the json file to contain the edited data

[quaint epoch]

is there a on_message_edit event? and if so what does it return?

[rocky trench]

wdym?

[rocky trench]

old and new msg I think

[slate swan]

yes there is, it returns a message object I think

[quaint epoch]

wait im confused

so what does it return?

[rocky trench]

'before edit' and 'after edit'

[quaint epoch]

alr

[slate swan]

i mean it doesn't return anything, that's for you to do

[quaint epoch]

wut

[slate swan]

are you asking about the parameters

[slate swan]

reasons.remove(index)
file.write(reasons)
file.close()

[rocky trench]

not sure what the point is of that

[quaint epoch]

yes

so is it async def on_message_edit(old_message, new_message):?

[slate swan]

it removes the warning from the file lol

when you do reasons.remove it doesn't edit the file

it edits reasons

[rocky trench]

I see

So I need to write it back to the file

[slate swan]

yes

[rocky trench]

But I dont want my entire file to change, just the "reasons"

[cloud dawn]

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator = True)
async def unwarn(ctx, member: discord.Member, position: int):
    with open('warns.json', mode='r+') as f:
        y = json.load(f)

        y[str(member.id)]['warns'] -= 1
        del y[str(member.id)]['reasons'][position - 1]

        f.write(json.dumps(y, sort_keys=True, indent=4))

[rocky trench]

not sure but this would replace entire file with it i think

[slate swan]

ye, but it would be the same

[cloud dawn]

With the edited y yes.

[slate swan]

the only thing different would be reasons

[rocky trench]

lemme see

[cloud dawn]

And warn amount

[rocky trench]

you guys know I got multiple 'reasons' in there right

[cloud dawn]

That's why i indexed

[slate swan]

ye

[rocky trench]

ah k

didnt notice it smh

[slate swan]

gay
nice reason

[cloud dawn]

I also don't recommend using json

[rocky trench]

nah it was testing

[cloud dawn]

As a dutch person i'm very disappointed.

[slate swan]

nice reason nonetheless

[rocky trench]

I support lgbtq+ 😅

[slate swan]

jk

[rocky trench]

its just a joke for my friends lol

[rocky trench]

ok

now it didnt wipe the file, but added an entire overwrite to it

[cloud dawn]

You mean it appended

[rocky trench]

yh

what does sort_keys do?

[cloud dawn]

It sorts the keys

Alphabetically

[rocky trench]

ah that way

but how do I not make it append?

[wary ice]

[quaint epoch]

btw, for the check i recommend changing it to @commands.has_permisions(view_audit_log=True)

[rocky trench]

yh this works, but it spams smthng in my file

nul nul nul

[quaint epoch]

i've never seen that happen before

[rocky trench]

me neither lol

[quaint epoch]

it's kinda scary tbh

i wouldn't want that happening to me

[rocky trench]

xd

@cloud dawn

[cloud dawn]

Open it in a normal text editor

[rocky trench]

wdym normal text editor

r?

[quaint epoch]

the default windows text editor?

notepad

[rocky trench]

but the file is json

[quaint epoch]

just do it

it doesn't matter

[rocky trench]

I would need to change everything in my scripts?

[quaint epoch]

no

[rocky trench]

I see

Its not in notepad, the nul nul nul

but I always use visual studio code

[quaint epoch]

just open it in notepad

[cloud dawn]

Then just ignore that

[rocky trench]

its kinda weird in my opinion

why it spams that

[quaint epoch]

vscode is strange

[cloud dawn]

json is strange

[quaint epoch]

programming in general is strange

[cloud dawn]

life is strange

Pretty good game btw

[quaint epoch]

for ME, if i ran a print statement of a json_file.read(), the json file apparently wasn't set, that's just messed up (even tho i did set it)

[rocky trench]

is there also a way to wipe all 'reasons' at once?

[manic crescent]

Does somebody know whats wrong here?

[cloud dawn]

This code in SQL would only take one line ```sql
DELETE FROM warnings WHERE warning_id = id

[cloud dawn]

y[str(member.id)]['reasons'] = []

[rocky trench]

@bot.command()
async def clearwarns(ctx, member : discord.Member = None):
    with open('warns.json', mode='r') as f:
        y = json.load(f)
        y[str(member.id)]['reasons'] = []
        y[str(member.id)]['warns'] -= y[str(member.id)]['warns']
        f.truncate(0)
        f.write(json.dumps(y, sort_keys=True, indent=4))```

would this do it? imma have to add if .. is none too now

I got no idea

[cloud dawn]

@bot.command()
async def clearwarns(ctx, member : discord.Member = None):
    with open('warns.json', mode='r') as f:
        y = json.load(f)
        y[str(member.id)]['reasons'] = []
        y[str(member.id)]['warns'] = 0
        f.truncate(0)
        f.write(json.dumps(y, sort_keys=True, indent=4))

[rocky trench]

isnt it the same tho lol

[cloud dawn]

0xFFFFFF is white

Replace # with 0x

[cloud dawn]

y[str(member.id)]['warns'] -= y[str(member.id)]['warns'] dunno why you did this long method

[rocky trench]

idk xd

[slate swan]

[tawdry perch]

start_time = time.time() can't be accessed outside the function

you could use self.start_time = ... which should work, but I'm not sure

[sacred sigil]

how would I go about making an invite checker?

I'm aware of guild.invites() but could I use member.guild.invites()?

[slate swan]

okay so it worked

but i want to split it ine hours:mins:sec

[coral vessel]

Can't run discord.py via VS code
i try reinstall python still got this message:

Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases.

[tawdry perch]

Take a look at strftime

That is nice for formatting datetime strings

so i changed self.start_time = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S") and self.end_time = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")

but i get this error

TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'str' and 'str'

hello

can someone help me with this problem in discord.py

@bot.command()
async def insult(ctx):
  async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:

      insultjson = await request.json(content_type='text/html')

  await ctx.send(url=insultjson['insult'])

[tawdry perch]

I recommend using strftime only for the output after you substract, currently strftime returns 2 strings

[slate swan]

like this?? ```python
self.time_lapsed = self.end_time - self.start_time
self.end = self.time_lapsed.strftime()

[honest shoal]

what's the issue

[quaint epoch]

!d disnake.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Message.delete

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

Deletes the message.

Your own messages could be deleted without any proper permissions. However to delete other people’s messages, you need the [`manage_messages`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.manage_messages "disnake.Permissions.manage_messages") permission.

Changed in version 1.1: Added the new `delay` keyword-only parameter.

[tawdry perch]

Try it and see, remember to add format string inside strftime function

[slate swan]

it says error

[honest shoal]

send it along with sample json

[honest vessel]

why the heck this aint working? ```py
@commands.command()
@commands.is_owner()
async def changenick(self, ctx, *, nickname):
print("Changing nick on bot.")
await ctx.guild.me.edit(nick=nickname)

[slate swan]

i changed it like this ```python
self.time_lapsed = self.end_time - self.start_time
self.end = self.time_lapsed.strftime("%H:%M:%S")

``` AttributeError: 'float' object has no attribute 'strftime'```

[honest vessel]

oh it sais i dont own the bot

[tawdry perch]

Ok so it returns a float...

I can't really help any further but I suggest asking the time and strftime in #python-discussion

my .env == IRL_TOKEN=<censored> IRL_OWNER=<censored but correct>

[tawdry perch]

Are you the owner of bot account?

sorry for bothering you again. I have this command, it works but i want to make it like refresh every one min so it can update the status. Do you know how?? ```python

em.set_author(name=name)
em.add_field(name = 'Online Playes:', value= str(events['clients'])+"/"+str(events['sv_maxclients']), inline = True)
em.add_field(name = 'Server Ip:', value= f"{ip}:{port}", inline = True)
await ctx.send(embed=em)
commandscha = self.client.get_channel(int(config['commandslogs']))
user10 = ctx.author
user = ctx.author
channel10 = ctx.message.channel
prefix10 = config["prefix"]
emb6=nextcord.Embed(title="New Commands Use!", description=f"", color=orange, timestamp=datetime.now())
emb6.set_author(name=user.name, icon_url=user.avatar.url)
emb6.add_field(name="User: ", value=f"{user10.mention}")

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

Deletes the role.

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.

[slate swan]

does the role exist?

Show your code

The topmost role is the everyone role and cannot be deleted

List indexing

Skip the everyone role with list indexing

If you're wondering how
ctx.guild.roles returns a list of the roles

You can, do [1:] to ignore the everyone role

No

Its there

Hehe

[knotty gazelle]

This is the owner of the server

[slate swan]

Welcomeeee

[slate swan]

Of the bot*

[knotty gazelle]

`Nah

[slate swan]

No?

[knotty gazelle]

cuz it says @commands.is_owner()

that means owner of the guild

Woah, I thought I was too dumb and read the docs wrong ;-;

[tawdry perch]

Ye owner of bot

[slate swan]

Welp

[honest vessel]

😄

guess it has it owns life now 😄

[knotty gazelle]

oh ok

[honest vessel]

but bot runs as normal

[knotty gazelle]

sorry i didnt now

[honest vessel]

kek

[knotty gazelle]

cuz always when i tested it did cuz i was owner of the guild and the bot

[slate swan]

Its clearly proved you inferior
You saw?
You have no respect even your own bot humiliates you

Lmao, jk, dont take it seriously

[honest vessel]

lol its funny tho

like wtf

only 1 running

[knotty gazelle]

and

what da problem?

@cedar smelt

[slate swan]

Use the isinstance function

[knotty gazelle]

if channel.id == "your channel id":
  ...

is this it? @cedar smelt

[slate swan]

Idk about announcements, but you can check for sytem channels, text channels and voice channels and nsfw channels using the isinstance method

[knotty gazelle]

soo

nextcord.utils.get(ctx.guild.channels, name="channel name")
``` this @cedar smelt

so like```py
nextcord.utils.get(ctx.guild.channels, name="rukes")

[slate swan]

Fetching channels is way better, or just use the get_or_fetch method

[knotty gazelle]

and what does that mean?

@cedar smelt i dont get what your trying to do

oh

https://xenon.bot

like this?

like a database is needed i think

[slate swan]

Use the xenon bot, easy

Or just copy server template link

[pseudo crystal]

    code = "".join(random.choices(string.ascii_uppercase + string.digits + string.ascii_lowercase,k=16))
     return f'{passwort}' ``` 
How to fix this? i wanna use this in a ctx message

[knotty gazelle]

@client.command()
async def restore(ctx):
  guild = ctx.guild
  RulesChannel = await guild.create_text_channel(name="Rules")
``` @cedar smelt

something like this

[knotty gazelle]

dont use a function do it in your command so like:

@client.command()
async def nitro(ctx):
  code = "".join(random.choices(string.ascii_uppercase + string.digits + string.ascii_lowercase,k=16))
  await ctx.reply(code)

This changes the perms.for the everyone role for all channels

Thats what i need. currently no one has roles so theoretically it should work

[knotty gazelle]

send_messages needs to be False

you are setting the permissions to trie

That means u r giving them the perm

[cold sonnet]

it's a he

[slate swan]

what's regex

[cold sonnet]

well, I'm gonna google it

[slate swan]

How do I spell it 😔

[sage otter]

He learned d.py before actually learning python. So you know. It do tend to be that way.

[cold sonnet]

yes, I did

[slate swan]

Welp

[sage otter]

regex is a built in

[slate swan]

I had to install it welp

[cold sonnet]

so if you know, why didn't you answer it instantly

[sage otter]

Idk then. It’s part of pythons standard package library.

[slate swan]

bad at regex

[cold sonnet]

I didn't even know what it is, yet I can do what I want in programming anyways

But-

my ways might suck

but they work

[slate swan]

Lol its fine, your convenience

[cold sonnet]

and I know most about dpy so that's why I'm here

[slate swan]

hello gentlemen

[cold sonnet]

hi

[slate swan]

i'd have a question,

i want my bot to send a message to a specific channel where the user used that command.
I'm using / commands and the discord-py-slash-command library, and it's a kick command.

async def kick(ctx:SlashContext, user, reason:str = "None"):
    await user.kick()
    await user.send(f"Kicked from {ctx.guild.name} for {reason}")
    kicked = user.mention
    embed = discord.Embed(title = "Kicked a user", description = f"Kicked {kicked} for reason: {reason}")
    await ctx.send(embed)
    print(f"{user} used: kick")

this should kick the user (which it does) and then send a message in the chat where the command was used (which it does NOT)

perhaps i could associate the channel to a variable beforehand, but as i'm new to this i'm kinda lost

[slate swan]

Typehint the user to discord.Member

[cold sonnet]

await ctx.send(embed=embed) is how it's used everywhere else

embed is not a positional argument indeed

[slate swan]

Oh yeah

And the kick method should contain a reason argument?

[cold sonnet]

no

[sage otter]

It’s optional.

[slate swan]

mhm

i applied a correction to the embed

i got why it's wrong

[cold sonnet]

print(f"{user} used: kick") is just kicking my eyes

[slate swan]

oof

[slate swan]

what do you mean sir with typehint?

[slate swan]

i copied it online, for now i want to understand the concept and then perfectionate it, sorry

[slate swan]

I'm not a sir-
Typehinting in python

[cold sonnet]

    await user.send(f"Kicked from {ctx.guild.name} for {reason}")``` switch these two lines

they might cause an error

if you won't have a shared guild with this person anymore, you can't send a message to him

so send before kick

[slate swan]

Oh yeah, the user will be none

Or

oh yes that's my problem, and that fixes it, i don't know how i haven't thought about it before..

;-;

Welcome

[slate swan]

sorry sir
i am just used to calling everyone sir ma'am

thank you both anyway

[slate swan]

Welp,welcome

[cold sonnet]

that's kinda nice

[slate swan]

it's for respect, especially here since i'm speaking with more knowledgeable people

i have one problem now

Mhm go ahead

in the terminal it says "<the name of the kicked user> used: kick"

it's supposed to say the name of the person issuing the command

here is how i changed the code:

async def kick(ctx:SlashContext, user, reason:str = "no reason nerd XD"):
    await user.send(f"Kicked from {ctx.guild.name} for {reason}")
    await user.kick()
    kicked = user.mention
    embed = discord.Embed(title = "Kicked a user", description = f"Kicked {kicked} for reason: {reason}")
    await ctx.send(embed = embed)
    print(f"{user} used: kick")

how can i address the user using the command instead?

[cold sonnet]

print(f"{ctx.author} used: kick")

[slate swan]

author

[cold sonnet]

yes

[slate swan]

thank you, i will have to remember these things

could you tell me the specific meaning of ctx?

[cold sonnet]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context

help

help([object])```
Invoke the built-in help system. (This function is intended for interactive use.) If no argument is given, the interactive help system starts on the interpreter console. If the argument is a string, then the string is looked up as the name of a module, function, class, method, keyword, or documentation topic, and a help page is printed on the console. If the argument is any other kind of object, a help page on the object is generated.

Note that if a slash(/) appears in the parameter list of a function when invoking [`help()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#help "help"), it means that the parameters prior to the slash are positional-only. For more info, see [the FAQ entry on positional-only parameters](https://docs.python.org/3/faq/programming.html#faq-positional-only-arguments).

This function is added to the built-in namespace by the [`site`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/site.html#module-site "site: Module responsible for site-specific configuration.") module.

[tough bobcat]

argh

I have the

set to dm me when an error is raised, but i am getting the attatched error logged to the console instead of going into the event function
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/erenijoqov.sql

[slate swan]

can you invoke a command within on_message event?

invoke is only based around context but how can i gain context within on_message

nvm

[sage otter]

I was gonna say
Bot.get_context(Message) exists.

[cloud dawn]

I got pinged?

i smell regex

[slate swan]

just send it to the member

you can use ctx.author

[tough bobcat]

no i mean it works for normal errors like just doing

@bot.command(name='div0')
async def _div0(ctx):
    # type: (commands.Context) -> None
    1/0

but for this other error it just doesnt work

[slim ibex]

it’s -> None:

[tough bobcat]

what

im saying that this works fine

[pliant gulch]

Any reason why you do the type in a command rather than the actual signature itself, E.g ```py
async def _div0(ctx: commands.Context) -> None: ...

Backwards compatibility I assume?

Also your error you sent in the hastebin has something to do with your network configurations? Or the network security configurations either or not sure

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

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.File "disnake.File") object.

[upbeat dirge]

Can you set the channel and guild? To send the message in. - Thanks.

[cloud dawn]

Just channel/guild.send

[upbeat dirge]

So - Discord.JS is where I am coming from - to define a specific guild by ID you would do something like

        global.guild = await discordClient.guilds.fetch("834851020524748840", true, true);
``` Do you know if there is a python equivalent - I know how to set it as a global | just I don't know the specifics for getting it to set the guildID.

[full lily]

bot.get_guild(id) this perhaps

there's also a fetch equivalent

[upbeat dirge]

Gotcha - Did you just find this in the documentation?

[cloud dawn]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Bot.getch_user

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.getch\_user

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

Tries to get the user from the cache. If fails, it tries to fetch the user from the API.

[full lily]

I had to look up the exact name in the docs, yes

[upbeat dirge]

Yeah - I don't want the user - ultimately I want to be able to send a message to a specific channel

Thx. Bones.

[full lily]

my understanding is that fetch would send an api request to get the id, and get would look for it in the cache. In what cases is each applicable?

It says here that For general usage, consider get_guild(), though I would have thought it'd be the opposite

When would the id not be in the cache?

[cloud dawn]

True

[vapid anchor]

Well that's more because of the design patterns of discord.py

Hikari (a much better python discord lib) can work without a cache so fetching is recommended there

[upbeat dirge]

Okay - clearly this is going way over my head - if I want to message a specific channel in a guild - how would I go about doing that - in Python?

[vapid anchor]

You don't need the guild to send a message

[slim ibex]

^

[vapid anchor]

The API just needs the channel id

[upbeat dirge]

Oh - really. Thats easier.

[vapid anchor]

hikari.RESTClient.create_message(channel_id, "content") if you're using a good library

Otherwise you gotta get a partial messagable or fetch the channel with dpy

[slim ibex]

lmao

“If you’re using a good library”

[vapid anchor]

channel = bot.get_partial_messageable(channel_id)
await channel.send("content")

[slim ibex]

all you need is ctx.channel

[vapid anchor]

Ain't it true tho, hikari is so much better than dpy with working with partial data

[slim ibex]

yeah it is but some dpy forks are great too

[vapid anchor]

Yeah if you're sending to the same channel, that doesn't seem to be what they specifically asked for

[vapid anchor]

Yeah I'm one of the core devs of disnake actually

[slim ibex]

👀

rly?

[vapid anchor]

Yeah

[slim ibex]

nice

[full lily]

what wrapper are you using. Discord.py?

[slim ibex]

I don’t actually use disnake, I use nextcord but I have heard disnake is great

[full lily]

in dpy you would need the channel object iirc

[vapid anchor]

2.0 feature

Just use that

[slim ibex]

but I found this new discord api wrapper. It isn’t a fork of dpy and has stuff like middleware (you can customize it)

!pypi pincer

[vapid anchor]

dpy kinda sucks with this though 😔

[unkempt canyon]

pincer v0.15.3

Discord API wrapper rebuild from scratch.

[upbeat dirge]

I was using - disnake | all I need is to be able to message to specific channels and do / cmd's

[vapid anchor]

Guess what lib has that too, hikari

[slim ibex]

Pincer is still in alpha and planning phase

[vapid anchor]

use hikari mate

[slim ibex]

I’ll check it out

mainly got my eyes on pincer rn doh

but it’s good to know multiple libs

[vapid anchor]

Yeah the partial messagable should do the trick if all you need to do is send a message

[full lily]

where are you getting a partial massageable from?

[vapid anchor]

Yeah pincer looks cool, there are just some questionable design patterns atm so imma give it a while to mature

[vapid anchor]

It's just a dummy object with a channel id to process sending messages

[full lily]

where from

[vapid anchor]

Build it with a bot method

[slim ibex]

yea def. I’m currently making like a simple bot with it and messing around with it so I can see how it works

but def won’t make a production bot with it yet

[pliant gulch]

!d discord.TextChannel.get_partial_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.get\_partial\_message

get_partial_message(message_id, /)```
Creates a [`PartialMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.PartialMessage "discord.PartialMessage") from the message ID.

This is useful if you want to work with a message and only have its ID without doing an unnecessary API call.

New in version 1.6.

[vapid anchor]

Wait

Yeah nvm then

Damn this server needs some slash commands god damn

It's not a partial message tho

[full lily]

what's the diff between this and get_channel

[upbeat dirge]

How is partial messageable able to send a message when it calls for a an id of a message

[vapid anchor]

get_channel uses the cache to get full channel data

get_partial_messageable creates a dummy object with just the id

Both can be used to send messages

[full lily]

PartialMessage has a .channel attribute there. You can use .send() on that

[vapid anchor]

It uses an id of a channel

[pliant gulch]

How so? Slash commands are very under powered compared to regular commands... If this server switched to slash commands for an example one command such as eval would be completely eradicated. This bot is also not gonna get verified as It's only for this guild, no point

[vapid anchor]

Not partial message. Nothing to do with partial messages. I'm talking about partial messageables

[vapid anchor]

I miss my autocomplete

And yeah stuff like eval will probs have to stay as a prefix command for now, that's unavoidable

[pliant gulch]

Unless discord adds multiline support which a lot of us have been asking for. I doubt they would deliver though

[vapid anchor]

Didn't we already get a preview for it

And if multiline options don't come first we'll at least have modals

[pliant gulch]

The text input components?

[vapid anchor]

Yup

Though eval still seems better as a prefix command even for its more niche features like rerunning code on message edit n stuff

[upbeat dirge]

global channelBeta1 ; await bot.get_partial_messageable("883737072454750269")
    channelBeta1.send()``` - Pretend the second line is in another file - this should work right? | then I can just follow the (https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send)

[pliant gulch]

Sure, but slash commands are still very young and under-powered compared to "regular" chat commands. It's gonna be hard to make up that huge difference

[full lily]

don't forget to await .send()

[pliant gulch]

One of the main reasons from discord at least is adding slash commands would make it easier for developers

When in-fact slash commands have quite a layer of complexity behind them, depending on the user of the API.

Although API wrappers can just make simple builders for said commands the implementation is humongous

[full lily]

I don't understand the partial_messageable approach. I would use get or fetch channel with your channel id

[vapid anchor]

Honestly I'm just glad there's some standardization now

[pliant gulch]

Not well designed for python styled libraries, clearly aimed for javascript

[upbeat dirge]

Just py bot.fetch_channel | instead and then await it.

[vapid anchor]

This is what discord.py does to you man

[vapid anchor]

Oh yeah they can, have you seen hikari's approach on this?

[full lily]

I'm all ears

[pliant gulch]

No not at all, designing my own wrapper so I want to be un-biased

Errr, not designing anymore just rewriting my previous almost completed one

[vapid anchor]

discord.py's design patterns encourage working with full data even when it would be at the price of several more API fetches

A notable example here is the fact you are for some reason encouraged to fetch a full channel object when all you need is the id to make a request for sending a message

[vapid anchor]

Gotta respect that

[pliant gulch]

discord.py also pretty much has outdated code, I have yet to see a lot of refactors

[vapid anchor]

Yup definitely

[pliant gulch]

The get_channel is O(n)

😔

[full lily]

I'll have a look at this hikari later

[vapid anchor]

So much better man

[pliant gulch]

Thanks means a lot, but my motivation is also wavering a bit

My old wrapper was basically from scratch wrapper with discord.py semantics

But now my new rewrite is different from discord.py semantics

Going good so far I'd say

[vapid anchor]

while hikari has less abstraction it also has a lot of less questionable code. discord.py is already starting to fall apart with the new features

for example banners not being present on user objects in cache

That one's a whole lotta fun to debug I bet

[pliant gulch]

Wouldn't be to hard to patch it yourself

GUILD_CREATE sends out the member datas'

[vapid anchor]

dpy is fun because the ridiculous amount of try/excepts all around the project ensure that everything works no matter what

Even when it means it won't work as intended

The horrors one has to go through to maintain a fork

Hikari's a project I look up to and I actively try to steer disnake in such a way so we can become more like hikari

[pliant gulch]

Mmmm I've never understand maintaining a fork

[vapid anchor]

Honestly, some things are just meant to die

[pliant gulch]

I'd much rather create from scratch. I'd be more familiarised with the codebase, as I wrote it myself

Along with code chocies

[vapid anchor]

I learned a lot about signature parsing while working at disnake though

Wrote shitty code for disnake so I could later write pretty code for hikari

[pliant gulch]

Signature parsing? Is this for commands

[vapid anchor]

yeah, disnake's slash commands

I was the one who designed them

I tried to make it resemble the familiar dpy commands while following fastapi semantics

[pliant gulch]

Compare and contrast with my old slash commands parser? I need more inspiration as my rewrite wrapper will be fully native, thus not using commands-extension

Oh actually nevermind, I'll just rewrite the slash command parser from scratch

[vapid anchor]

https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/master/examples/slash_commands/param.py

[slate swan]

I need help

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)
async def kick(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
    await member.kick(reason=reason)
    embed = discord.Embed(color=color, description=f'{member} was kicked')
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

@kick.error
async def kick_error(ctx, error, member: discord.Member):
  if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
    embed = discord.Embed(color=color, description=f'{member} You do not have the permission to use this command')
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

The kick error message is not sending

[pliant gulch]

mmmm I def do not like the identical implementation every fork as right now

[slate swan]

someone pls help me 😭

[vapid anchor]

Well it's the modern way

The main distinction are the minor features rn

[slate swan]

can someone help me fix the kick error message

[pliant gulch]

The modern way is a poorly designed way that only allows for more space to be taken up in my opinion

If this is the "modern" way, the forks def need a rework

Poorly designed that is depending on the fork itself

I'm mostly talking about the decorators, etc

Its quite obvious an attempt to stick with the old commands format

but that won't be scalable for larger commands

[vapid anchor]

• pycord - places metadata into annotations making it impossible to use mypy (LOVE IT!)

• nextcord - little features, all metadata in defaults

• disnake - everything discerned from a valid annotation, descriptions taken from docstrings

• edpy (draft) - classes with an options attribute for raw option data and a callback method

• d-interactions - option parameter in decorators for raw option data

• hikari-tanjun - decorator chains

• hikari-tanchi - signature parsing same as disnake (cause I did both lmao)

There's diversity alright

[pliant gulch]

Mmmm time to switch from mypy tbh. Pyright has a strict flag and I've been using it after switching from mypy

The maintainer of pyright is quite fast and professional

Mypy doesn't even support Self in annotations

[vapid anchor]

Mypy has a strict flag too idk what you're talking about

[pliant gulch]

I never said it didnt...

I just said pyright has a strict flag

[vapid anchor]

He left my issue open for a month now 😭

[pliant gulch]

Was it for a reason or just randomly?

[vapid anchor]

Idk

Lemme send it

https://github.com/microsoft/pylance-release/issues/2099

https://github.com/microsoft/pylance-release/issues/2100

Issue is fixed when using a venv btw

Because the site package wouldn't be there

But that's such an annoying detail

[pliant gulch]

But where you not using a venv before?

[vapid anchor]

I used to not use a venv

I have been forced to because of this bug though

I kinda never bothered to tbh

[pliant gulch]

At least it's a good practice to use a venv when developing

[vapid anchor]

Yeah it is but I never had an actual need for it

Didn't have any conflicting dependencies because I kept everything up-to-date

[pliant gulch]

I'm sure it would've been useful in places. You would basically ensure your wrapper usable in the way you use it, python version control, package control, python directory cleanliness

Quite a lot of stuff

I could not develop well without my poetry environment

Also includes building packages in itself, no need for all that building manually

[vapid anchor]

Python version control is so damn messy man, there needs to be some actual standard instead of a lot of backwards compatible nonsense

[pliant gulch]

There is a standard, use a VENV and ensure the compatible python versions

[vapid anchor]

Huh

Alright then

Already using that so that's cool

[pliant gulch]

[vapid anchor]

Gotta switch to 3.10 at some point

[unkempt canyon]

pyproject.toml lines 13 to 16

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = "^3.9"
aiohttp = "^3.8.1"
typing-extensions = "^4.0.1"```

[pliant gulch]

I accidentally switched to 3.10 😔 It automatically updated when I did pacman -Syu and I wasn't prepared for it

[vapid anchor]

Worst thing about pinning dependencies is that I gotta remember to update them 💀

[pliant gulch]

Github dependabot

[vapid anchor]

Or setup some GitHub bot

Yeah that annoying little fucker

[pliant gulch]

The PRs are quite floody though

[vapid anchor]

Yeah I've unfortunately noticed

Thank You

[slate swan]

whats your lib?

[heavy radish]

discord.py

I believe

[slate swan]

youll need 2.0

[heavy radish]

How do I update?

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

Use a fork , or clone the master branch

the repo has info

You'd need git for that

[heavy radish]

Alright

[slate swan]

yeah i recommend a fork tbh

[heavy radish]

Hmm

[slate swan]

forks have slash commands

[heavy radish]

Let me open the link

[prisma spoke]

not all

[slate swan]

which

[prisma spoke]

nextcord does

disnake prolly does

[slate swan]

yes , but forks like Disnake and nextcord have slash commands and are recommended

your friends fork doesnt count lol

[heavy radish]

It's looks the same

[prisma spoke]

thats hat i said

[heavy radish]

The BOT example

[slate swan]

Disnake's slash commands implementation are older than other libraries since it's similar to dislash.py lmao ( the developer is Same)

[prisma spoke]

pardon but i know nothing bout disnake i tried getting the server link of it but cudnt get it

[slate swan]

Disnake's server?

https://discord.gg/kfceNxm4

[prisma spoke]

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

Edits the guild.

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

Changed in version 1.4: The rules\_channel and public\_updates\_channel keyword-only parameters were added.

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_text\_channel

await create_text_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, position=..., topic=..., slowmode_delay=..., nsfw=..., overwrites=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") for the guild.

Note that you need the [`manage_channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_channels "discord.Permissions.manage_channels") permission to create the channel.

The `overwrites` parameter can be used to create a ‘secret’ channel upon creation. This parameter expects a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.9)") of overwrites with the target (either 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")) as the key and a [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite") as the value.

Note

Creating a channel of a specified position will not update the position of other channels to follow suit. A follow-up call to [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.TextChannel.edit "discord.TextChannel.edit") will be required to update the position of the channel in the channel list...

[maiden fable]

Where's the news kwarg

[slate swan]

using channel.edit py edit(type=ChannelType.news) should work too right?

[maiden fable]

Weird... Imagine making two API Calls

[slate swan]

yea

ch = await Guild.create_text_channel(name='name')
await ch.edit(type=ChannelType.news)

it works , im not sure if there's any other way of doing that with a single request

[maiden fable]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#create-guild-channel

The type parameter exists in docs tho @slate swan

[slate swan]

lemme try with an eval using create_text_channel

[maiden fable]

Thanks

[slate swan]

await _ctx.guild.create_text_channel(name='test' , type=disnake.ChannelType.news)

name, overwrites=overwrites, channel_type=ChannelType.text, category=category, reason=reason, **options```

[maiden fable]

So it manually sets the channel type

Weirddd

[slate swan]

see the message below that codeblock

[slate swan]

i dont see a reason to do that , like they could set the default value to ChannelType.text and allow using ChannelType.news with the channel_type kwarg

yes , it works

[maiden fable]

Ikr

Also why set it to None/MISSING first in the function definition and then use if statements??? I don't know why devs don't set it directly

Sure

[slate swan]

yep , it needs to be TextChannel obj

[maiden fable]

iirc it can take a snowflake too

I don't really know

[slate swan]

maybe , it just needs to id property of the object

its a callable

is_news()

[maiden fable]

Lol

[elder pike]

Can't you just select the channel to edit by ID?

[slate swan]

nope

[boreal ravine]

you need its object in dpy

you cant just edit an integer, that makes no sense

[slate swan]

TextChannel "object" has the edit method , and "int" wont have it

*method

[elder pike]

fair enough thanks

[maiden fable]

You know... When I was making the private wrapper for revolt, I was thinking... Why not associate every method with the bot or the ctx object... Like bot.send(channel-id, *args, **kwargs and so on haha... You know, associate everything with the IDs itself. No need for the objects lol

[slate swan]

hikari does something similar :p

[maiden fable]

Hahaha

[slate swan]

await BotApp/GatewayBot.rest.create_message(channel_id, content, ...)```

[maiden fable]

I never looked into that tbh...

[boreal ravine]

well im sure d.py's http client has that

[maiden fable]

I just think getting and fetching objects is just useless and wastes resources (though negligible)

[pliant gulch]

You could do that, but what happens to data you receive from the websocket? Unless revolt doesn't have a websocket

[visual island]

some of the requests needed the object

[pliant gulch]

Not really

[visual island]

and that's to make the wrapper cleaner

[pliant gulch]

The objects is just library abstraction

You can make the request entirely with IDs and payloads, that being the case of discord.py

[maiden fable]

It has one

[pliant gulch]

Yea, so then it would be a good idea to make objects

[maiden fable]

Hmm well I did make them afterwards ngl

[pliant gulch]

Unless you inject the object into a caching layer of the bot

[slate swan]

what if you provided a wrong id , just a request failure by get/fetch u actually know that the object with that id exists or not

[maiden fable]

Hmm

[pliant gulch]

If the ID doesn't exists it raises an error

Thus the opposite means an ID exists

Unless that was what you meant

😔

[slate swan]

yea but that would still be a request right? altho a failed one

[pliant gulch]

Sure, but that requests bucket will fill up pretty quickly depending on the X-Ratelimit-reset-after

Anyways most of the objects in discord.py are from the gateway

As you receive most things through it such as members from GUILD_CREATE payloads

[slate swan]

rules_channel=None

[visual island]

Not directly the object's class, but for example https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#modify-channel permission_overwrites accepts "array of overwrite objects" and discord.py PermissionsOverwrites has as_dict or to_dict method. So probably there are some method which really need you to get the object.

[slate swan]

a community guild without rules channel?/

[pliant gulch]

No, just create the dict yourself

Nothing here on objects is required

It's all library abstraction

[visual island]

yeah but why create your own dict if discord.py already has a method to convert it to dict

[pliant gulch]

I'm not endorsing it

I'm saying it isn't required

Like my original statement

[slate swan]

whats that

what library are you using

and its an event

!d disnake.Guild.create_scheduled_event

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Guild.create\_scheduled\_event

await create_scheduled_event(*, name, scheduled_start_time, entity_type, privacy_level=..., channel_id=..., entity_metadata=..., scheduled_end_time=..., description=..., reason=None)```

[slate swan]

Guys, I have made a private leaderboards bot for my server which fetch the leaderboards from a url and updates it every 4 seconds (asyncio.sleep) so now I want to make a public version of the bot. but the problem is that I want it to update leaderboards in every server, it is in, every 10 seconds. but if it is in many servers then first it update leaderboards in every server and then sleeps for 10 seconds, but it will slow it down and will then take more than 10 seconds, so is there a way? that it fetch leaderboards every 10 seconds but update in servers within the same 10 seconds e.g.
it fetch leaderboards and then sleeps for 10 seconds before sending another request but while the bot is in sleep mode, it update the other servers and when the 10 seconds complete, it will send another request and then sleeps again

[edgy finch]

k

[maiden fable]

First, use tasks

[slate swan]

to fetch...ok

[maiden fable]

Second, just iterate through bot.guilds and get the leaderboard for every guild

[slate swan]

but the fetch is ok, but when the bot send message to all guilds, it become a bit slow and then after when I make it sleep for 10 seconds, its been more than 10 seconds(10 seconds sleep + time taken when sending to other guilds)

[maiden fable]

Could be it's getting ratelimited? In how many guilds is it sending?

[visual island]

tasks.loop will handle that (not the ratelimit, but the time to execute)

[slate swan]

I am talking that it will take time in editing leader boards in server

after all edited it will then sleep for 10 secs

then it will edit the leaderboards of 1st server after all this time (10 secs + time taken in other servers)

[pine crown]

import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands
import json
import os

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix='-', intents=intents, case_insenstivive = True)


client.warnings = {
  guild_id : {}
}

why does it say guild_id not defined?

[maiden fable]

Cz it isn't defined...?

[visual island]

yes I know that, using asyncio.sleep does that. But tasks.loop doesn't matter on code execution time. It sees if now is last execution time + 10 then execute the code again. While asyncio.sleep wait until the last code is Finished then execute the next code, tasks.loop doesn't

[slate swan]

kk

[visual island]

But if you're talking about how to edit/send it simultaniously, you cant

cause ratelimit stuff

for example, you have 1000 guilds, it will take 1000/50 (20 seconds) to edit everything

[slate swan]

hello is there a way like in discord.py to see the commands u have and add it to help command …

bc i don’t wanna add all my commands manually i have many commands

use this

[slate swan]

kk

ok

uhh i didn’t find anything that can help me @visual island

oh get_command?

or idk

[visual island]

@slate swan what do you use for the help command? a normal @bot.command() or MinimalHelpCommand or ?

[boreal ravine]

Whats CogT

[maiden fable]

Type hinting stuff iirc

[slate swan]

Normal

@bot.command()

Oops

[karmic lintel]

how to fetch users reaction?

like fetch_message is there anything like fetch_reaction?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Message.reactions @karmic lintel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.reactions

Reactions to a message. Reactions can be either custom emoji or standard unicode emoji.

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Reaction is what it returns

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction

class discord.Reaction```
Represents a reaction to a message.

Depending on the way this object was created, some of the attributes can have a value of `None`.

x == y Checks if two reactions are equal. This works by checking if the emoji is the same. So two messages with the same reaction will be considered “equal”.

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

hash(x) Returns the reaction’s hash.

str(x) Returns the string form of the reaction’s emoji.

[slate swan]

no messages for more than an hour

[vale wing]

You broke inexistent no messages chain

[spring verge]

anyone uses mongo db here? is it good if a bot is in one server only?

[quaint scaffold]

No

MongoDB is for document data whereas just about everything you do with Discord is relational data

Use the appropriate tools

[spring verge]

I personally use postgreSQL for storing data like user ids etc but my client on fiverr wants me to use mongodb

[slate swan]

Why not just use Sqlite if it's for a single server

It serves the purpose well

[spring verge]

its the client not me.

[slate swan]

I don't think it would be hard for them to have an extra 4-5 kb file size with the code

[quaint scaffold]

Oh, if your client wants MongoDB, then you could recommend a SQL based db but if they still decline, use Mongo in that case. It still works, in fact, Invite Tracker used it until 6 months ago.

[slate swan]

Ah

they asked u to use mongo

[spring verge]

yes

I will try to negotiate with them again into using RDBMS

[slate swan]

Well , it's okay if you do that

[spring verge]

ok. btw is ur fav choice for sql datbase postgres as well?

[quaint scaffold]

Absolutely

[spring verge]

yep its the best

AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'to_dict'

whats the issue ??

[vale wing]

You already have a dict and you are trying to turn it into dict

[shell wing]

meaning ?

[quaint scaffold]

Read it again, it can't get more simple than what he said

[shell wing]

i get what he/she is saying....but i dont think that i made a dic...

the same code is working on other bot of mine..

[quaint scaffold]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/link.py

[shadow wraith]

yeah i dont see a dict either, use a fork for buttons then.

it seems like the error comes from where the package location is

[quaint scaffold]

You are creating the button the wrong way in the first place, have a look at that code, it's from the developer of discord.py

[shell wing]

the exact same code...is working on my other bot...

i just copy pasted it

[earnest wolf]

someone help

this is not working for some reason

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound ):
    await ctx.reply("command not found nig")

[spring flax]

channel.history doesn't have a check kwarg?

if not, how do I get the messages of a member in a channel to get it into a list?

[potent spear]

what do you want to do with the messages? delete them?

[potent spear]

ALWAYS print else statements too, you basically have another error but you're hiding it

[spring flax]

Get message content

[potent spear]

to do what with it?

[spring flax]

Put in a file

[potent spear]

alright, you basically have to check the first example in the docs, it's doing what you want it to do, but instead of the count, you do your stuff

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=channel history#discord.TextChannel.history

[spring flax]

ah okay

[message.content for message in ctx.channel.history(limt=100) if message.author == member]

i thought there was a check kwarg, though it could be for something else

[potent spear]

wrong

don't make it a one liner per se, you're only confusing yourself with it

[spring flax]

what's wrong?

[potent spear]

in the example on the docs, you'll see that it's an ASYNC loop

[spring flax]

[message.content for message in (await ctx.channel.history(limt=100).flatten()) if message.author == member] this?

[potent spear]

.

second note: try and see
third note: limit

[spring flax]

yeah i will try when on pc it should work

and its not confusing lol

[potent spear]

also, know that a txt isn't a db

a better way of "storing" history of a member can be done via

1. directly in on_message
2. in every iteration of a message, add it as a db row with the info you like (message_id, member_id, content,...)

[spring flax]

It's for a purge command to view the deleted messages a database is unnecessary

[potent spear]

then why are you storing it in a txt?

[spring flax]

To view them

[potent spear]

why don't you just store it as a local variable?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.on_bulk_messages_deleted

[potent spear]

nice

[maiden fable]

Rip I forgot the event name

!d discord.on_bulk_message_delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_bulk\_message\_delete

discord.on_bulk_message_delete(messages)```
Called when messages are bulk deleted. If none of the messages deleted are found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. If individual messages were not found in the internal message cache, this event will still be called, but the messages not found will not be included in the messages list. 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_bulk_message_delete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_raw_bulk_message_delete "discord.on_raw_bulk_message_delete") event instead.

This requires [`Intents.messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.messages "discord.Intents.messages") to be enabled.
