[maiden fable]

Or was he?

[sage otter]

I hope he is.

[slate swan]

for the lucas part , yes
for the hikari part , no

[sage otter]

Understandable

[maiden fable]

I wish it was quite the opposite

[slate swan]

i like lucas' voice

[sage otter]

I don’t. Honestly if the people who are making hikari keep doing what they're doing it will be probably be better than dpy

[maiden fable]

True

Well, I'm kinda moving away from the bot making scene, soooo ain't learning hikari

[cloud dawn]

hikari's naming is so uwu

[maiden fable]

I bet the owner's a weeb

[sage otter]

Hikari isn’t as beginner friendly as dpy tho. Like I said it lacks many of the abstractions that dpy has.

[cloud dawn]

That's a bold assumption to make.

[slate swan]

hikari lover is typing...

well its developing fast
dav works on the hikari lib , lightbulb is maintained by thommo , tanjun by snab
and there are like 3 or 4 voice extensions

[maiden fable]

Like?

[slate swan]

like lavasnek-rs , songbird-py

[waxen granite]

@cloud dawnif url1 == self.url: this was needed . ty

[slate swan]

my purge command is not working for some reason it worked before

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages = True)
async def purge(ctx, ammmmount=int):
  await ctx.channel.purge(limit=ammmmount)

[slate swan]

ctx.guild -> ctx.get_guild() ( lightbulb)

Bot.get_user(id) -> GatewayBot.cache.get_user(id)

basically , the implementations are not too easy

[sage otter]

Imagine using lightbulb

Tanjun all the way babyyyyyy

[slate swan]

tf is lightbulb

[sage otter]

A commands framework

[maiden fable]

Weirdddd

They are easy... We are just adapted to dpy

[modern fiber]

How can I make banned words event? So it deletes the message + returns a message when banned word is detected?

[slate swan]

comments on this ? hikari.impl.special_endpoints.ActionRowBuilder

[maiden fable]

Wait what's even that 😐

[sage otter]

Hikari does stuff in a weird way as well.
In dpy Guild.members returns list[Member] while hikari's Guild.get_members returns a Mapping[Snowflake, hikari.Member]

[maiden fable]

What's smowflake here? The ID?

[slate swan]

disnake.ui.ActionRow

[maiden fable]

Tf

[slate swan]

[sage otter]

Ye.

[spring flax]

Check message.content of messages on on_message event

[sage otter]

Same thing as

[slate swan]

and we cannot disagree that all of the implementations really make sense

[sage otter]

Wot

[sage otter]

Yeah.

[slate swan]

!d discord.abc.Snowflake

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Snowflake

class discord.abc.Snowflake```
An ABC that details the common operations on a Discord model.

Almost all [Discord models](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord-api-models) meet this abstract base class.

If you want to create a snowflake on your own, consider using [`Object`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Object "discord.Object").

[spring flax]

What's action row

[vale cedar]

How to get an owner name in each server bot is in in cogs?

[sage otter]

A row of components

[spring flax]

What?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.owner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.owner

property owner: Optional[discord.member.Member]```
The member that owns the guild.

[sage otter]

[g.owner for g in Bot.guilds]

[slate swan]

Returns the owner of the server

[sage otter]

Ez money

[slate swan]

;-;

Welp

[vale cedar]

can you make it full ?

[obsidian ledge]

how do i make the bot delete the command after it has been sent/received

[round widget]

is it possible to use slash commands in cogs using disnake library?

[slate swan]

Wdym?

[spring flax]

Of course

[round widget]

I'm trying real hard to figure out where I'm failing

[slate swan]

Yep

[round widget]

could you link me to some example or docu?

[spring flax]

await ctx.message.delete()

[modern fiber]

How do I get it to delete that message and return another message?

[spring flax]

What do you mean return another message?

[modern fiber]

Like print, "Your message was deleted bla bla bla"

[slate swan]

You have too many syntax errors above first of all
And you can use the purge method on the channel
And the send afterwards

[vale cedar]

I don't know, can you make an example pls

[modern fiber]

Mk, thanks

[spring flax]

Why purge?

!d discord.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.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://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission.

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

[modern fiber]

He means this line
await ctx.message.delete()

[spring flax]

Yeah, purge is different, refers to bulk deleting messaging

[slate swan]

print(bot.get_guild(guild id).owner)

Or you can of course fetch it

[slate swan]

She*

[slate swan]

Welp, yeah ;-;

[modern fiber]

Hold on, so what do I add now?

[round widget]

@slate swan am I doing this right

    async def pug(inter):
        await inter.response.send_message("Response")```

[slate swan]

What do you think?

[slate swan]

Cogs are classes
Cogs require a self argument to be passed as a parameter in all methods

[modern fiber]

await ctx.message.delete()

Tried that, says ctx isn't stated.

[round widget]

¸hmm ok

[slate swan]

have you defined ctx?

[spring flax]

what is your bot instance?

is it client or bot?

[modern fiber]

client

[spring flax]

you sent two screenshots, one with bot and one with client

how did you define client?

[modern fiber]

I know I fixed it lol

[modern fiber]

Not sure what you mean by that uh-

[slate swan]

client = ?

[spring flax]

did you do client = commands.Bot(...)

[keen talon]

Integer = "3"

[slate swan]

What if discord.Client()

Lol

[spring flax]

I asked what he did, how is that relevant?

[slate swan]

how about both

[slate swan]

await message.channel.send("deleting message")
await message.delete()

[slate swan]

Hot

a client for making events
and a bot for making commands

[keen talon]

You have to think about it

[slate swan]

seems a cool idea

[spring flax]

think about what?

[slate swan]

then i can run both instances together

[keen talon]

!pypi hikari

[unkempt canyon]

hikari v2.0.0.dev105

A sane Discord API for Python 3 built on asyncio and good intentions

[slate swan]

oof, how you so big brain lol

[slate swan]

i watch many tutorials and combine them all to make a big latest bot

[slate swan]

unofficial API or a wrapper?

[vale cedar]

How to get all name of all member in each server is bot is in???

[slate swan]

some of them use bot , some of them use client
so i used both to make a best one

[slate swan]

I'm not even commenting on that

[slate swan]

its a wrapper

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.members i suppose?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.members

property members: List[discord.member.Member]```
A list of members that belong to this guild.

[slate swan]

Bad desc

Misleading*

[vale cedar]

Sorry again! Can you show me the example pls :(

[slate swan]

I can write the whole bot for you then 🙃
Apply brain

[round widget]

@slate swan ah ok, the reason why my command didn't show up was because it was global. I've turned on debug mode and noticed "it might take up to 1 hour" message so I've just set it to local

[modern fiber]

@spring flax@slate swan

[round widget]

now everything works

[vale cedar]

Just let show me the example of that one pls :)

[slate swan]

Yup

[slate swan]

Get the guild and use .members on it, no more spoonfeeding

[slate swan]

the initial owner named it that way ig
`An opinionated, static typed Discord microframework for Python3 and asyncio that supports Discord's V8 REST API and Gateway.

Built on good intentions and the hope that it will be extendable and reusable, rather than an obstacle for future development.

Python 3.8, 3.9 and 3.10 are currently supported.` is the actual desc

[slate swan]

Umm.....? Ping diabolical they asked for it

[modern fiber]

@spring flax

[slate swan]

I-

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown

exception discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown(cooldown, retry_after, type)```
Exception raised when the command being invoked is on cooldown.

This inherits from [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError")

[slate swan]

yo can someone help me

[spring flax]

do await message.delete() and await message.channel.send(...)

[slate swan]

add reaction

[sage otter]

Believe it or not. The guy who made it is 16

[maiden fable]

Damn

[slate swan]

dav or nekokatt?

[sage otter]

dav

[slate swan]

ah

well , hes cool 😳

[sage otter]

He knows his way.

[spring flax]

are you new to python? Just asking

[modern fiber]

I am,

sorry for maybe asking stupid shit, lol.

[slate swan]

Yes, can you teach?

[spring flax]

!resources Alright so....making a discord bot requires some basic understanding of python.
If you do have a basic understanding it'd be a lot easier for you and you would know somewhat what to do and how
So I suggest going over the resources page here

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[modern fiber]

smh

[slate swan]

hey i have this code but i get this error ```python
role_id = str(config['staffid'])
role = get(guild.roles, id=role_id)

```     role = get(guild.roles, id=role_id)
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'roles'```

[modern fiber]

Nice- bt can you let me finish this command 😂

event*

[sage otter]

Remove the parenthesis and try again

I didn’t really read your code. I’m just addressing your error.

[sage otter]

Whatever guild is. It’s not an instance of discord.Guild. You probably have an id or something.

[spring flax]

I can...but I'm only trying to make it easier for you

[spring flax]

remove the parenthesis for @client.event()

[fluid spindle]

Hi, just wanted to tell you that I tried this again & it worked! Thanks!

[slate swan]

great , youre welcome ! :3

[modern fiber]

Oky, but how do I make it so it works when in message like "you are idiot" not just when u say "idiot"? @spring flax

[slate swan]

if "idiot" in message.content

[slate swan]

guild = int(config['guild'])
role_id = str(config['staffid'])
role = get(guild.roles, id=role_id)

[slate swan]

me = "idiot"
if me in message.content: pass

Lmao

[slate swan]

Get may always not work, it may return None

Sometimes

[sage otter]

Which it usually doesn’t. All of the bots guilds are chunked on startup.

Oh wait

That’s a role

[slate swan]

Code? And what you're trying to do?

you used Avatar/Icon/Banner .size somewhere?

[sage otter]

Same concept tho. Roles are cached as well. Guild.get_role() will always return something unless the role isn’t in that guild or doesn’t exist.

[slate swan]

or you dont mess with the intents

many people just end up with only member intents lol

[sage otter]

either way, he shouldn’t use utils.get() if he already has an id

[sage otter]

You never grabbed the guild from cache

You just grabbed an id from your config and assumed that is your guild object

grab the guild with
Bot.get_guild() and consider adding the changes I just mentioned earlier.

[slate swan]

what r u trying to do?

ah

ill assume you're watching swas.py?

use pfp.size where u used asset.size

same thing there too

replace asset with pfp

[modern fiber]

For some reason, my just broke. Doesn't respond on any commands + isn't showing any errors?

Huh.

Help?

[sage otter]

you overwritten your on_message event

So your bots no longer processing commands anymore

[modern fiber]

Huh? What should I change

[sage otter]

Add await bot.process_commands(message)

[modern fiber]

Where exactly?

[sage otter]

Inside the on_message() event

Not inside your if block

[modern fiber]

Like this?

Doesn't seem to work.

[sage otter]

I just said not in the if block

[modern fiber]

AH

Okay, lol. Also, how can I add more words?

Should I use like
if "idiot;lasagna" in message.content:

Or?

[sage otter]

Using a list

Checking if any of the items in the list are in message.content

[modern fiber]

How do I add this list?

[sage otter]

You're telling me you don’t know how to make a list??

[modern fiber]

uh-

I don't know how to separate words

well I forgot

[cold sonnet]

space button

[shy elm]

I'm trying to have a db with Mongodb using pymongo. Currently I'm trying to add a new field to a doc that's registered to that server but in my code I get '(' '[' and '{' not closed even tho they are. I'll send the code In a sec

[cold sonnet]

send it in #python-discussion with the problem

or an unoccupied help channel

[slate swan]

yo

guys

is there a way to start vc activity with discord.py

[sage otter]

!d discord.VoiceChannel.connect

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.connect

await connect(*, timeout=60.0, reconnect=True, cls=<class 'discord.voice_client.VoiceClient'>)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Connects to voice and creates a [`VoiceClient`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.VoiceClient "discord.VoiceClient") to establish your connection to the voice server.

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

[modern fiber]

Like this?

Also await delete message doesn't work

[cold sonnet]

that's the indents

also, please learn using python

!resources with this

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[modern fiber]

Can you help then?

[modern fiber]

I will, but let me finish this.

Please.

[cold sonnet]

gotta learn the priorities

[slate swan]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[slate swan]

Your first if statement is wrong.

When deleting a message you don't need to pass an argument such as 5.

If you want to delete the bot message after 5 seconds, use the following

await ctx.send(..., delete_after=5.0)

[modern fiber]

Oh okay

thank you @slate swan

[slate swan]

If you want to mention the member, you can simply use message.author.mention.

That should be everything you need ^^

[modern fiber]

Thanks bud.

I really appreciatte that.

[slate swan]

No problem :)

[modern fiber]

Uhh-

Not sure what's wrong ;-;

[cloud dawn]

Look at the lines

[slate swan]

The last line is not correctly aligned with the if.

[cloud dawn]

I think i got it

[slate swan]

role = '934115503973203978'
@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def whitelist(ctx, user: discord.Member):
    roles = ctx.guild.get_role(role)
    await user.add_roles(roles)
    roleadd = discord.Embed(color=0x800080,
                            title=":Tick: Role Given!!",
                            description=f'''
**Whitelisted** {user.mention}

**Whitelisted By:** {ctx.author.mention}
    ''')
    roleadd.set_thumbnail(url=user.avatar_url)
    await ctx.send(embed=roleadd)

await user.add_roles(roles)

File "C:\Users\siyya\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\discord\member.py", line 777, in add_roles
await req(guild_id, user_id, role.id, reason=reason)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

[maiden fable]

roles is None

[slate swan]

IDs are integers, not strings.

[maiden fable]

Ah good catch

[cloud dawn]

..?

[slate swan]

Needs to be aligned at the same level as the if above.

[cloud dawn]

!indention

[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

[slate swan]

!indents

[cloud dawn]

ha

[slate swan]

Same as the return in the example above.

[modern fiber]

I believe it was-

[slate swan]

It wasn't

There was 1 space too much

[modern fiber]

Nvm it wasn't, thanks man

time to test it all together

[slate swan]

Which you still have in that last screenshot by the way.

[cloud dawn]

Also in the gamecode func why did you define embed and then again?

[modern fiber]

Ok well I have problem-

bot going crazy spamming it and deleting its own messages and mentioning himself

loop huh?

[slate swan]

You need to ignore bot users.

[modern fiber]

Ah,

[slate swan]

ctx.author.bot returns a boolean whether or not the author is a bot.

Simple if statement and then go for a return if it's true.

[modern fiber]

if ctx.author.bot = True
return

[slate swan]

You can remove the = True

[modern fiber]

or - Im sorry, Im still pretty new,

[slate swan]

Since it already returns a boolean

if ctx.author.bot:

would turn into

if True:
#or
if False:

So no need of a comparison.

[cloud dawn]

I highly recommend learning the basics of Python first before coding a Discord bot.

[modern fiber]

So how do I add an ignore part

[modern fiber]

Im trying.

Lol.

[cloud dawn]

It's a functions so simply return it

[slate swan]

Simple if statement as above, then return

[cloud dawn]

So we're asking these questions

Hey bro are you a bot? (yeah i am because ctx.author.bot is true):
Go back

[modern fiber]

Thanks bro lmao, thank you so much

Im dumb af

lol

[slate swan]

How're you so funny

[slate swan]

ctx isnt defined?

[modern fiber]

How should I define it

[cloud dawn]

He can solve this one

[modern fiber]

Believe in me

[quaint scaffold]

You can't, at least not in an on_message

[slate swan]

He asked the same thing 2 hours earlier

Lmao

[modern fiber]

cries in python

[cloud dawn]

So in the on_message function what are we passing in it?

[modern fiber]

Uhh

[quaint scaffold]

Take a look at the documentation for on_message and see what attributes a discord.Message has

[modern fiber]

event?

[slate swan]

pat pat

[cloud dawn]

No the args

[modern fiber]

Oh yeah- args

so uhh

[slate swan]

can someone help

[modern fiber]

..

[cloud dawn]

Well? What are we passing as an arg?

[slate swan]

that does not work

[slate swan]

Do not ask to ask ;-;

[modern fiber]

if it's bot?

[quaint scaffold]

Add py after the three backticks please

It's not syntax highlighted

[cloud dawn]

No, what arg are you passing inside the function.

[slate swan]

kk

pls help me with this

[cloud dawn]

Please don't bump messages.

[modern fiber]

I have no fucking idea im not that smart smh

[slate swan]

bump?

[modern fiber]

If Im smart I wouldnt be here

[slate swan]

That code.....is so cursed

[quaint scaffold]

Add py after the three backticks please

[slate swan]

you formatted it like that cause it becomes longer , right?

[slate swan]

someone said i should add the py

[slate swan]

It isnt here

!d discord.on_member_join || we dont have rdanny here

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_join

discord.on_member_join(member)``````py

discord.on_member_remove(member)```

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

[slate swan]

no

i addedd a button

[quaint scaffold]

Take a look at the args for on_member_join

[slate swan]

to redirect to take some roles

💀

[modern fiber]

well we got a problem

[slate swan]

You have a lot of faults in your code ;-;

oh

[modern fiber]

now it doesn't even look at if has shit, it deletes and returns a message to any message you send @cloud dawn

[slate swan]

yh i forgot

[modern fiber]

I literally said hi and it deleted

[quaint scaffold]

The way you declare the button gives me brain aneurysms

[cloud dawn]

Send me the code

Take some rest

16 hours shh

Sheesh

[quaint scaffold]

LOL

Sleep is for the weak

i cant find the problem

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[cloud dawn]

Can you please stop?

[modern fiber]

I used or?

[slate swan]

fym what did i do

[modern fiber]

Hm-

[quaint scaffold]

Right, take a look at this: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/link.py

Your code is ridiculously unreadable

[cloud dawn]

Read it trough then you can see why it gets triggered.

[quaint scaffold]

I'd recommend opening up a help channel, there are many issues your code has

[slate swan]

and how do i do that

[quaint scaffold]

#❓｜how-to-get-help -_-

[modern fiber]

So like this?

@cloud dawn

[quaint scaffold]

No

[cloud dawn]

This is the wrong usage of the or operator.

[quaint scaffold]

!e py print(bool('idiot'))

[unkempt canyon]

@quaint scaffold :warning: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

[No output]

[quaint scaffold]

hm

That returns True anyways

[cloud dawn]

!e ```py
print(bool('false'))

[unkempt canyon]

@cloud dawn :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

True

[cloud dawn]

!e ```py
message = "Hello you are looking good :D"

if "idiot" or "mf" in message:
print("The **** you say to me you little *****")

[unkempt canyon]

@cloud dawn :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

The **** you say to me you little *****

[honest vessel]

has anyone done subclass to bot?

[manic wing]

how did you misspell shit

[cloud dawn]

Yes

[manic wing]

no whats that

[cloud dawn]

That's not shit

[manic wing]

the fuck you say to me you little shit?

[honest vessel]

I sent dm to u but u ignored me 😦

[quaint scaffold]

There are many words in the English language comprised of 5 characters

[manic wing]

maybe dont dm

[modern fiber]

But I don't have message bruh

[manic wing]

its a phrase

[quaint scaffold]

It can be

[honest vessel]

anyway ```py
class anna(commands.Bot):
def init(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().init(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or(command_prefix), *args, **kwargs)
self.uptime = int(round(time.time()))

dont mind indentations

[manic wing]

what is subclass to bot

what is a clas

[cloud dawn]

bot.uptime

[modern fiber]

@cloud dawn

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author.bot:
        return

    if "idiot" or "mf" in message.content:
        await message.delete()

        await message.channel.send(f"Hey {message.author.mention}! Please refer using words like this one!", delete_after=5.0)
    await client.process_commands(message)```

So what I change?

[quaint scaffold]

Have you read anything we said?

Scroll up and read our answers to you

[modern fiber]

I did but I don't understand

what I did wrong

nvm lol

I found out haha

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author.bot:
        return

    if any([word for word in message.content if word in ("mf", "idiot")]):
        await message.delete()

        await message.channel.send(f"Hey {message.author.mention}! Please refer using words like this one!", delete_after=5.0)
    await client.process_commands(message)```

So smart right? 🆒

is nobody gonna tell me im smart? smh

[potent spear]

good attempt

[modern fiber]

.

[potent spear]

users will always bypass censoring, but you can censor basic words, yeah...

[honest vessel]

@modern fibermaybe consider check message.content.lower()

[quaint scaffold]

^ and eventually once you get good enough you can use regex

[honest vessel]

cause IDIOT MF will work

😛

[honest vessel]

someone helped me with a good censor (enough) but a girl with greek N bypassed my nwords fitlers 😦

[modern fiber]

I know haha, Im smart

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author.bot:
        return

    if words := [word for word in message.content.split() if word.lower() in ("mf", "idiot")]:
        await message.delete()

        await message.channel.send(f"Hey {message.author.mention}! Please refer using words like this: {''.join(words)}", delete_after=5.0)
    await client.process_commands(message)```

[potent spear]

not worth it, like bruh
this is an example of the regex of the n word
(?i)\bn[i1][bg]{1,2}[ae3][rs]?s?

[quaint scaffold]

Here's a better one: (?P<main>(?:(?:(?<!s)[n\U0001F1F3]+(?:(?P<_nc>.)(?P=_nc)*)?[i1!|l\U0001f1ee]+(?:(?P<_ic>.)(?P=_ic)*)?[g9\U0001F1EC](?:(?P<_gc>.)(?P=_gc)*)?)|(?:[k\U0001f1f0]+(?:(?P<_knc>.)(?P=_knc)*)?[n\U0001F1F3]+(?:(?P<_nnc>.)(?P=_nnc)*)?[e3€£ÉÈëeÊêËéE\U0001f1ea]+(?:(?P<_enc>.)(?P=_enc)*)?[e3€£ÉÈëeÊêËéE\U0001f1ea]+(?:(?P<_enc_>.)(?P=_enc_)*)?))[g9\U0001F1EC]+(?:(?P<_gc_>.)(?P=_gc_)*)?(?:[e3€£ÉÈëeÊêËéE\U0001f1ea]+(?:(?P<_ec>.)(?P=_ec)*)?[r\U0001F1F7]+|(?P<soft>[a\U0001F1E6])))((?:(?P<_rc>.)(?P=_rc)*)?[s5]+)?(?!rd)

[honest vessel]

gotta love the headache u get from regex 😄

[waxen granite]

i have a question. i am storing IP and port in a json file. i am fetching the names of the server from those ip and on what position/index they are in the json. how can i reverse the thing and get the server ip and port from its index or the name?

[potent spear]

start using a db

[quaint scaffold]

SQLite / Postgres is what most recommend

[potent spear]

you're clearly not using the json as a config (for it's intended purpose)

[honest vessel]

aiosqlite ❤️

simple and fast

[quaint scaffold]

It's good for beginners but lacks more advanced features

[honest vessel]

well u just heard his simple issue 😄

[potent spear]

for what it's worth, most beginners don't use the "advanced features"

[honest vessel]

INNER JOIN

UNION

nah they happy with basic Update select delete

[potent spear]

are those features not available in aisqlite?

is that advanced? lol

[echo wasp]

ctx.channel.send(embed = random.choice(begEM)) this right?

[honest vessel]

i mean most dosnt know sql at all, and just do simple select can be hard first time

"another language to learn FUCk i give up, i stay with json" 😛

[potent spear]

yup, if your begEM is a LIST of embeds

[potent spear]

Everyone starts like that
Then you just need to to learn how to convert your json to sql tables

[honest vessel]

@potent speari learned basic sql before json was even a thing 😄

[round widget]

any way to reloads cogs on the fly so I don't have to restart bot every time? Using disnake lib

[honest vessel]

php+mysql

[potent spear]

noice

[honest vessel]

webdevelop

[honest vessel]

yes

unload and load

not sure if u can change the code and unload n load tho? (never tested so i dont know)

[round widget]

yeah that's what I'm interested in, update the code on the fly without restarting the bot

[honest vessel]

try it out?

[round widget]

will do for sure

[honest vessel]

let me know 😉

[round widget]

alright :D

[honest vessel]

that would be great when working with 1 cog only

[echo wasp]

Please help it didn't work

[slate swan]

Code?

[round widget]

ye i literally have 1 cog only

but i guess i'll make admin cog for (re/un)loading

[echo wasp]

yes here https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ayohorogon.py

[potent spear]

read whay I say please

[maiden fable]

begEM is an embed

[slate swan]

Replying to your earlier problem, you can reload cogs to fulfil

[potent spear]

I said IF begEM is a list, which it isn't

[echo wasp]

let me look

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/efuzuhekab.py

[potent spear]

remove line 30
line 33 should be
await ctx.channel.send(embed = random.choice(list))

that's it

also, use a better variable name than list, it's reserved

call it embed_list or whatever

[echo wasp]

begEM = [em1, em2, em3, em4, em5, em6, em7, em8]
@bot.command(name='Beg')
async def Beg(ctx):
    await ctx.channel.send(embed = random.choice(begEM))``` like so?

[echo wasp]

never played with that before

[potent spear]

Perfect

[echo wasp]

ok let me try it

[vale root]

Hey how can i make my bot say somthing when a key word is sent?

i cant remember for some reason

[echo wasp]

that worked now i just have this issue the variables to say an amount doesn't work how do i make it work

[icy axle]

hello guys i need help for discord.py
I did code on_message and now the commands do not work for me because of this, I tried to find a way to fix it but without success can anyone help me?

[maiden fable]

await bot.process_commands(message) at the end of the on_message

[waxen granite]

How do i get the list of perms the bot requires to execute a cmd?

[frank tartan]

can someone help me make a members command? like it shows the members of a specified role? also, shows the amount of people who have the role?

[icy axle]

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content == "test1":
        await message.channel.send("test1", reference=message)
    if message.content == "test2":
        await message.channel.send("test2", reference=message)
    if message.content == "test3":
        await message.channel.send("test3", reference=message)
    if message.content == "test4":
        await message.channel.send("test4", reference=message)
    if message.content == "test5":
        await message.channel.send("test5", reference=message)
        await bot.process_commands(message)

[waxen granite]

fetch the guild.members who has the role

[slate swan]

    @bot.command(name="timer")
    async def countdown(self, ctx: commands.Context, number: int, reason: str):
        if number < 0:
            await ctx.send("Error: Input should be a number.")
        elif number > 7201:
            await ctx.send("Input must be under 7200 seconds")
        else:
            while number != 0:
                number -= 1
                await asyncio.sleep(1)
            await ctx.send(f"{reason}")

hey how do i make it so my bot actually takes all of the {reason} and not just the first word

[icy axle]

Still not working to write commands

[frank tartan]

example?

[slate swan]

so if i do the command
$timer 3 reason 1 2 3
it will only take "reason" as its paramter for the {reason}

[waxen granite]

member.name for member in role.members

[slate swan]

See this:
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html#keyword-only-arguments

[waxen granite]

How do i get the list of perms the bot requires to execute a cmd?

[slate swan]

bless you

[echo wasp]

how do i random pick a number for the {earning} varible in the embed prob with random choice but better safe than sorry

between like 10 and 50

[final iron]

!d random.randint

[icy axle]

i need help someone ?

[unkempt canyon]

random.randint

random.randint(a, b)```
Return a random integer *N* such that `a <= N <= b`. Alias for `randrange(a, b+1)`.

[final iron]

@echo wasp

[final iron]

What's your problem

[icy axle]

.

[echo wasp]

can you show an example please the docs don't make sense to me

[final iron]

!e

import random
rand_num = random.randint(1, 10)
print(rand_num)

[unkempt canyon]

@final iron :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

6

[echo wasp]

thanks

and this will fit the earnings?

[final iron]

What do you mean?

[shadow wraith]

i think i know what he means

[final iron]

Randint chooses a number inbetween the 2 numbers you provided

[shadow wraith]

ye

[final iron]

If you need to change the range just change the numbers

[shadow wraith]

random.randint(<somenum>, <somenum>) is how it works i think

[final iron]

I just provided an example

[shadow wraith]

yeah, but idk what he means by "earnings"

thought i knew what he means though

[final iron]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[echo wasp]

i need to be in the earnings slot

[final iron]

Use an f string

!f-strings

[unkempt canyon]

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

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

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

[echo wasp]

oh i get it now

[final iron]

You just need to add an f at the beginning of your quotes

[echo wasp]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/anoreduhuc.py

[quick gust]

what's wrong

[echo wasp]

thanks

[maiden fable]

Move it outside the if

[quick gust]

async def on_ready():
    print('we have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))```
use f-strings instead

[final iron]

That's not an f string

[quick gust]

I know lol

[final iron]

[final iron]

Then why send it and say use an f string

[quick gust]

"use f-strings instead"

[final iron]

Why not just provide an example of an f string

[quick gust]

I was just highlighting their code which should be changed...

[quick gust]

because you already showed them what f-strings are :)

[icy axle]

What do you mean

[echo wasp]

it works fine

[quick gust]

it works, but f-strings are better imo

[echo wasp]

i am helping someone so i will not just rewrite the code

[quick gust]

fair enough

[quaint epoch]

should i use API calls in the on_disconnect() event?

or should i avoid them like in the on_ready() event?

[slate swan]

Api calls in on_ready makes your bot more prone to disconnectivity

[slate swan]

drippy pfp

[slate swan]

whats a api class?

[modern fiber]

Why this doesn't work?

[slate swan]

I-
Am drunk, its clearly visible

[modern fiber]

nvm I forgot comma

[slate swan]

happens

[slate swan]

yes in the value kwarg lol

[slate swan]

requests as well can disconnect you from the api, discord doesnt like when you make a request or a call when the bot is connecting to the gateway

[slate swan]

Welp

its an atoms action

[slate swan]

ew

you run the bot in the same file ew

[slate swan]

More like it gets annoyed when it's doing something and u ask him to do a freaking job like changing status

[slate swan]

yeah i love that example

[cloud dawn]

Didn't want to overcomplicate it. I run it somewhere else as well.

[slate swan]

ew

make a main py and run it there

[slate swan]

It's me, when I'm coding and my mom asking me to do dishes

[sage otter]

I know for a fact you just made that create method just to be cool

[cloud dawn]

This is my __main__.py

from socket import gethostname, gethostbyname
from os import system

from core import Dispy, config, logger

bot = Dispy.create()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    system('cls')
    logger.info(f"Starting bot for {gethostname()} at {gethostbyname(gethostname())}")
    bot.load_extensions()

    logger.info(f"Attempting to connect to Discord..")
    bot.run(config.bot.token, reconnect=True)

[slate swan]

Rip

[cloud dawn]

😎

[slate swan]

its me, when im coding and my mom tells me to turn off my pc when its been on for an hour

[slate swan]

ew you make a class instance

ew

why learn classes and objects when u can just stackoverflow things

from NextGenbot import NextGen

my main files

[sage otter]

My subclass is extremely minimal tbh. https://github.com/Yat-o/Kurisu/blob/structure_rewrite/src/kurisu/bot.py

[sage otter]

I got this as well

[slate swan]

Y'all seemingly use disnake

[sage otter]

I don’t.

I still use the main repo

[sage otter]

I could make a hikari bot

But like meh

[quick gust]

🐶

[slate swan]

I hope thommo doesn't make lb 3.0 with completely another syntax

it's the 3rd time.im rewriting it

[sage otter]

It’s like a combination of sqlalchemy and aiosqlite at the same time

But just made easy and wrapped

[slate swan]

nice

[sage otter]

sqlalchemy kinda hot ngl.

[slate swan]

i wanna try hikari i just dont want to learn its syntax

[quick gust]

why not?

[slate swan]

Imo , it's somehow easier than dpy with lightbulb

[sage otter]

just use lightbulb

[slate swan]

lazy

[quick gust]

smh

[sage otter]

Or go hard mode and use tanjun. Tanjun is a lot harder compared to lightbulb.

It’s constant decorator chaining.

[slate swan]

#cog like stuff 

import lightbulb 

plugin = lightbulb.Plugin(name="okimi" , description = "learn hikari when")

def load(bot: lightbulb.BotApp)
    bot.add_plugin(plugin)

Even the slash Commands are too easy

!e
print("never")

[unkempt canyon]

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

never

[slate swan]

!e print( 0 or "do it")

LMAO

[unkempt canyon]

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

do it

[slate swan]

I'm used to jsk lol

[sage otter]

We got this https://github.com/aoi-bot/Aoi/blob/task/69-info-migration/aoi/modules/message_commands/information.py

[slate swan]

LOL

relatable

imagine using dpy and not Jishaku

cant be me

[sage otter]

Tanjun doesn’t do function signature parsing. All the arguments need to be made with a decorator

[slate swan]

Same goes for lightbulb

[sage otter]

it’s kinda nasty tbh

[slate swan]

Tanjun is a bit harder than lightbulb imo

[sage otter]

Ofc it is

The creator is probably some pyromaniac

[slate swan]

Imagine having your username "Faster Speeding" and not being a pyromaniac

[untold canyon]

Hey, is there a way to delete that embed or just doesn't show it? I can delete it manualy because it's auto showing by discord. But i want bot to do it.

[sage otter]

I mean if your bot doesn’t have embed_links it won’t show up

[slate swan]

!discord webhook

Anyone have discord.py webhook docs

[untold canyon]

but how to do this because now it's only await ctx.send(...) or i misunderstanding

[sage otter]

you're definitely misunderstanding.

[untold canyon]

ya maybe

[sage otter]

embed_links is the permission that allows for people to have discord automatically embed their link

[forest beacon]

I have two snippets of code. The first one works as expected so i mimicked it to create the second one and the print statiment doesnt work. Any help?

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_ready(self):
        '''Prints ready message in terminal upon bot connection as well as setting rich presence'''
        print('Bot is online')
        await self.bot.change_presence(
            activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.listening,
            name=' to your request | ..help')
        )```
```py
@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_member_join(self, member):
        print(f'{member} has joined the server')```

[sage otter]

So for example if your bot didn’t have that. Discord wouldn’t of embedded it for you.

[slate swan]

Use <> at end front (opening) and the end (closing) of the urls/links

[untold canyon]

you're right because i checked and i gave him administrator so embeded links too

[slate swan]

<https://welp.com/>

[sage otter]

This works

[untold canyon]

and thats a good idea

i now how i works but didn't fought of it

so thanks

[slate swan]

Thought? Or fought?
Welcome

[sage otter]

I didn’t know that existed either 🤷‍♂️

[untold canyon]

thought*

[slate swan]

Practical example of how much time I spend on discord

[quaint epoch]

did you close the brackets?

[forest beacon]

Trying to make a try except. How do i address discord.ext.commands.MissingRequiredArgument?

[quaint epoch]

you mean like, using a try/except to find if a param is missing?

[slate swan]

use

isinstance()

oh nvm

[forest beacon]

Yes @quaint epoch

[slate swan]

you want it to handle that exception

except discord.ext.commands.MissingRequiredArgument:

iirc

[quaint epoch]

you should use py @bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error): await ctx.send(f'An error occurred: {error}')

[slate swan]

depends

[quaint epoch]

instead of putting try/except in every command

[forest beacon]

[slate swan]

^

[forest beacon]

Had problem with @bot.event within my cog already

[quaint epoch]

bc if you have to put it in every command it's just better to use the on_command_error event

[slate swan]

your indentation

!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

[forest beacon]

Let me double check. Pretty sure i copy pasted though lol

[quick gust]

You can't check a user's connections with dpy can you?

[forest beacon]

Yeah, my on_member_join command still doesnt work but on_ready does

[slate swan]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

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

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[forest beacon]

How would that translate to being used in a cog? Do i set up the bot line again?

[slate swan]

no in your bot file

[forest beacon]

well darn. Was trying to have that within a cog for basic things like ping lol

[modern fiber]

Guys how can I make it so it deletes if someone spams

[slate swan]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own. The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[hoary cargo]

eh

[flint widget]

What library are people using now instead of discord.py?

[oblique cobalt]

anything that does same thing as discord.py; interact with API,

like dpy forks, hikari, pincer and so on

[flint widget]

Okay, I'll take a look into those
Was just curious as I've taken a long break from making bots and wondered if there was a fork/alternative that was most commonly used now

[manic wing]

disnakw

everyone uses disnake

[frank tartan]

how can i get the guild icon/logo url?

[oblique cobalt]

not everyone

[flint widget]

Nice one thanks, I'll take a look

[oblique cobalt]

master branch?

[frank tartan]

yes

[oblique cobalt]

as far as i remember its guild.icon.url, let me check docs

[slate swan]

@slate swan You have opposition

i use disnake but hikari is better tbh

[slate swan]

For 2.0 or other forks

Welp

[frank tartan]

it doesnt work

i get the error guild isnt defined

[slate swan]

Ikrr

[oblique cobalt]

yeah he says he uses master

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.icon

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.icon

property icon: Optional[discord.asset.Asset]```
Returns the guild’s icon asset, if available.

[oblique cobalt]

replace guild with the guild instance you have

[frank tartan]

idk what that means...

[oblique cobalt]

do you have context ?

the ctx

[frank tartan]

ctx?

[slate swan]

Eh? You okay?

[frank tartan]

yes

[oblique cobalt]

ctx.guild.icon.url

[slate swan]

Code?

[oblique cobalt]

ye im fine lmao

man just copy pasted directly

[slate swan]

crazy how people dont know that ctx is context

[flint widget]

disnake looks pretty good to me from a quick look
Any main reason you'd say hikari is better?
Just getting back into it so doing some research anyway

[frank tartan]

tyyyyyy

[oblique cobalt]

true

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.guild.icon.url

[unkempt canyon]

Not gonna happen.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

coughs

[oblique cobalt]

bru

[slate swan]

just quicker that isnt a fork of dpy so overall its clean

and you wont make danny mad for using a fork

[oblique cobalt]

why even change ? dpy is usable as long as Gateway version 6 (if that is what dpy uses) and HTTP API version 8 isnt removed lmao

[slate swan]

you really havent seen internals

[oblique cobalt]

i only seen http and gateway but i could be missing anything

[slate swan]

Mostly because people want to use slash commands and upcoming form/user input methods without needing to install an add-on library for that.

hikari is just way cleaner compared to others

[oblique cobalt]

oh i see, makes sense

[slate swan]

Why not switch to something maintained, dpy will eventually die, plus forks or other api wrappers hav better internals

[oblique cobalt]

i wasnt talking about any of that stuff tho

[slate swan]

i doubt it will die

other wrappers will just takeover thats all

[oblique cobalt]

seems fine enough for me with personal bot that i dont plan getting it popular not even 10 guilds

[slate swan]

At some point it will; at least not if they find another maintainer.

[slate swan]

I meant, welp

[slate swan]

pain😔

[slate swan]

you could still use a new fork, since its gonna be maintained and new methods would be added too

forks are just ctrl c ctrl v

[slate swan]

Just a click, to quote it

[oblique cobalt]

i dont really care much about it being maintained or anything like that, just as long as it is usable, which dpy will be for while now

[slate swan]

Not really no

Even if you edit a fork, it will still stay a fork

yes they do have new stuff but most forks connect the same way

[slate swan]

Your choice, I'm no one to judge

[oblique cobalt]

same

[slate swan]

disnake is a fork and will always be, as long as they don't make the library from scratch.

[slate swan]

exactly

[slate swan]

I dont see any point in making it from scratch tho ;-;

[cloud dawn]

i do

[slate swan]

A fork is just to make some changes that you'd like to see in the actual library.

some people are tired of trash forks

But keeping the base of that library.

i.e andy

Ouch, panda's lecturess

[slate swan]

We switched to cutlery?

And personally I hate using forks.

[slate swan]

wut

[slate swan]

same here

i want to switch but im to lazy😔

[slate swan]

Lmao, nothing, I was trying to make a bad joke

[slate swan]

🚪⬅️

[flint widget]

Yeah, I guess in this case though if no one is allowed to take over the original repo then a fork is the closest thing to someone maintaining the original 🤔

[slate swan]

🌎 ▶️

danny could revive dpy but he wont

i doubt he will comeback

[flint widget]

Yeah I read the whole post and that was deeeep, so it seems pretty unlikely

[slate swan]

yeah same here

[frail notch]

hoi... how can i fix this..? when I do !scrape it doesn't get the user ID's...

import discum
bot = discum.Client(token='bot token', log=False)

def close_after_fetching(resp, guild_id):
    if bot.gateway.finishedMemberFetching(guild_id):
        lenmembersfetched = len(bot.gateway.session.guild(guild_id).members) #this line is optional
        print(str(lenmembersfetched)+' members fetched') #this line is optional
        bot.gateway.removeCommand({'function': close_after_fetching, 'params': {'guild_id': guild_id}})
        bot.gateway.close()

def get_members(guild_id, channel_id):
    bot.gateway.fetchMembers(guild_id, channel_id, keep="all", wait=1) #get all user attributes, wait 1 second between requests
    bot.gateway.command({'function': close_after_fetching, 'params': {'guild_id': guild_id}})
    bot.gateway.run()
    bot.gateway.resetSession() #saves 10 seconds when gateway is run again
    return bot.gateway.session.guild(guild_id).members

@bot.gateway.command
def helloworld(resp):
    if resp.event.ready_supplemental: #ready_supplemental is sent after ready
        user = bot.gateway.session.user
        print("Logged in as {}#{}".format(user['username'], user['discriminator']))
    if resp.event.message:
        m = resp.parsed.auto()
        #print(m['content'])


        if m['content'] == "!scrape":
            #print("1")
            guildID = m['guild_id'] if 'guild_id' in m else None #because DMs are technically channels too
            channelID = m['channel_id']
            userids = get_members(guildID, channelID) 
            print(guildID)   
            print(userids)    

            #with open("users.txt", "w") as userfile:
            #    userfile.write(userids)

bot.gateway.run(auto_reconnect=True)

[oblique cobalt]

there is module named discum ? what

[slate swan]

My my, that import name

[final iron]

Lmao

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[final iron]

Please leave.

[frail notch]

whats inapropriate or against the law or anything here

[final iron]

It's selfbotting

[slate swan]

its a self bot module

[frail notch]

what...

[slate swan]

against tos

[final iron]

Yeah sure

[frail notch]

bro every time i ask help I get profiled for self botting

[oblique cobalt]

rip

[slate swan]

then what are you doing?

[slate swan]

Self botting? In the sense?

[frail notch]

legit can u not get a bit of help like what the hell

[frail notch]

A BOT

[slate swan]

!pypi disnake ❤️

[unkempt canyon]

disnake v2.3.0

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[final iron]

No. A self bot

You're making a self bot

[slate swan]

use a fork that actually is for bots

[final iron]

Basically creating a bot on a user account

[frail notch]

A bot which registers all user's id's for the members cuz im working on a larger bot which uses oauth2 but needs the user id's in order to know the servers in common

like jesus mfing christ

[slate swan]

Oh

[final iron]

Just use a lib not meant for self Botting then

[frail notch]

wdym

[final iron]

Look, I'm just going to ping mods eventually

[slate swan]

Solve your own problems if you dont know how to even communicate ;-; welp

[frail notch]

bru

im out of here man

[slate swan]

Bai bai

[final iron]

That's your choice

[slate swan]

hi korta

[untold token]

But its docs need a lot of improvement and I have seen its code too, some parts are well documented enough and there are a lot of methods that have very verbose documentation

[slate swan]

yes

[untold token]

Although its still in alpha so

[slate swan]

yeah

[untold token]

They are working on it

Although I absolutely love you can use plugins system with hikari

Very cool

[slate swan]

yes indeed

[flint widget]

I guess I'll use disnake for now since it's so close to what I was using before, and then I'll keep an eye on hikari because it could be interesting

[slate swan]

Pincer actually looks more interesting than Hikari

pincer has way better presentation

Heard of Hikari some time ago and hasn't really moved away from the alpha stage as far as I know.

yeah both pincer and hikari look good

[frank tartan]

i have totally forgoten how to do this, so i feel dumb rn... but how do I send a message in a specified channel?

[slate swan]

channel.send

you get the channel lol

channel should be a TextChannel object

[frank tartan]

i dont use disnake

[manic wing]

!d disnake.abc.Messageable.send ||

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.abc.Messageable.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=None, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
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. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`File`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.File "disnake.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Embed "disnake.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`Embed`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Embed "disnake.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[manic wing]

its the same for discord

[slate swan]

you can grab a specific channel using utils.get

[fresh orchid]

is there a function like asyncio.sleep that wont stop all the code?

[slate swan]

provided you already have a Guild object

[frank tartan]

how do i do that...

[manic wing]

you guessed it…asyncio.sleep

[fresh orchid]

but when I use asyncio.sleep it stops all the code after it too

or maybe im just lost

[manic wing]

what do you want to stop

[slate swan]

you'll need a discord.Guild object to do use discord.utils.get in this situation, do you have that?

[frank tartan]

i figured it out

ty!

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fresh orchid]

I want to give someone a role and send a message

But before this happens the bot should send a embed with the actual embed
I made it with many if statements maybe thats the problem

and I managed to solve the problem but I think it work better with something like asyncio.sleep

I can send the code if you want

[slate swan]

yes, send it.

use the pydis paste service

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[slate swan]

how would i go on to stop a bot on something like a timer, lets say i told the bot to make a timer, but i want it now to stop & clear the timer. (pls ping when replying to me)

[fresh orchid]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/neperonuha.py

It should just send the embed first and then add the role

I need it because when I dont send the embed first it will use the❌ everytime

[slate swan]

wdym sniper bot?

[final iron]

From my understanding it's basically what the python bot does

If it can tell a bot token is valid it will delete it

[slate swan]

uh no

[final iron]

I'm assuming he wants this except for crypto and it saves it instead of just deleting it

[slate swan]

he's talking about crypto

[final iron]

Which is pretty inappropriate

[slate swan]

no water that's really uh.. not how crypto works

[final iron]

I was assuming it was for account passwords and shit

I agree, I have no idea how crypto works

[slate swan]

look, regardless

this isn't the place to ask about that, I'm unsure myself of how legal that is

take your questions somewhere else

[astral vector]

out of context but is it possible to take a command name from a database?

[final iron]

Why not?

If it's in the database you can fetch it

[astral vector]

yeah that's what i was thinking too i'll make something for user made custom commands

[analog barn]

Hey! I'm trying to make my discord bot send a message in a channel ever n seconds (i chose 15) because it's supposed to be a type racer game.

however, I cannot get it to work.

@tasks.loop(seconds=15)

        type.start()
        ethan.run(token)

I have to run the function outside of the function, but I also need to get the author's message to access the author name and such

I cannot define message when I'm calling the function from outside as message is supposed to get the discord user's message and you're not supposed to predefine it.

any help? haha

(don't worry about the name in the code, that information is very public and I don't mind)

[velvet tinsel]

why are you importing modules inside your task

[analog barn]

i was testing

[velvet tinsel]

ok

[analog barn]

i didnt wana scroll all the way up and down

soo

its fixed now dw

[velvet tinsel]

ok

[analog barn]

yall able to help-?

[velvet tinsel]

I thought you fixed it

[slate swan]

he was talking about the import

[velvet tinsel]

ok

[hoary cargo]

Can you make a button to be pressed just by member member being the person you @ for the command on the old commands you could do this stuff with try except and wait_for , though i'm not sure if you can with slash commands and inter check
edit : it's possible

[gentle badger]

How do i do a HELP ME command

?

[final iron]

If you mean a help command you can subclass it

https://gist.github.com/InterStella0/b78488fb28cadf279dfd3164b9f0cf96

[velvet tinsel]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot you can do help_command=None in there

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, help_command=<default-help-command>, description=None, **options)```
Represents a discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin") to provide the functionality to manage commands.

[ebon island]

It's possible to get all users in a particular voice channel and return user objects for each correct?

[slate swan]

Yes, a voice channel has a members attribute that returns a list of Member objects.

[gentle badger]

NO i mean help from staff

[final iron]

Can you provide an example?

[ebon island]

Terrific, exactly as I expected 🙂

[gentle badger]

@final iron

[final iron]

Is this going to be hardcoded for 1 server or for multiple?

[gentle badger]

I write the code, but people will use the command not the code

1 server

@final iron

[final iron]

You would create an embed, add a button on to it which creates a channel

If it fits your purposes make the button exclusive to the person who ran the command

[gentle badger]

No, the button is for staff only

@final iron

[final iron]

Then make it exclusive to staff members only

[gentle badger]

Well, can you write me the code?

[final iron]

No

I'm not going to write you code

[gentle badger]

OK

But why?

[slow fog]

something called google

[final iron]

Because its a waste of my time and I'm not going to spoonfeed you

[vale cedar]

mem = (self.bot.get_guild(guild.id).members)
``` It show full information of members how to set up it for just show the name of the member?

[final iron]

It returns a list of member objects so you can just loop through the list and get the names with name

!d discord.Member.name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.name

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

[vale cedar]

can you make an example? I don't know :(

[final iron]

Which part?

Loop through the list or getting the name?

[vale cedar]

yes

[final iron]

Its not a yes or no question

Which one of those options are you confused with?

[vale cedar]

get the name

[final iron]

It would be like getting the name normally where i is your member object

[vale cedar]

yes

[final iron]

yes what?

[velvet tinsel]

no

[final iron]

I have a serverinfo command and when I tried it, it gave me this error. If anyone here knows anything about hikari-lightbulb please help me

@plugin.command
@lightbulb.command(name="serverinfo", aliases=['server', 'si'], description="Displays info about the server")
@lightbulb.implements(lightbulb.PrefixCommand, lightbulb.SlashCommand)
async def cmd_guild_info(ctx: lightbulb.Context) -> None:
    guild = await ctx.bot.d.redis_cache.get_guild(ctx.guild_id)
    ms = guild.get_members()
    cs = guild.get_channels()
    guild_id = guild.id

    await ctx.respond(
        f"Created at: <t:{int(guild.created_at.timestamp())}:f>\n"
        f"Owner: `{ctx.bot.cache.get_member(guild_id, guild.owner_id).display_name}`\n"
        f"Verify level: `{str(guild.verification_level).title()}`\n"
        f"ID: `{guild_id}`\nEmojis: `{len(guild.get_emojis())}`\nRoles: `{len(guild.get_roles())}`\n\n"
        f"**Members**\nTotal: `{len(ms)}`\nHumans: `{len([m for m in ms.values() if not m.is_bot])}`\n"
        f"Bots: `{len([m for m in ms.values() if m.is_bot])}`\n\n"
        f"**Channels**\nVoice: `{len([c for c in cs.values() if c.type == hikari.ChannelType.GUILD_VOICE])}`\n"
        f"NSFW: `{len([c for c in cs.values() if c.is_nsfw])}`\n"
        f"Text: `{len([c for c in cs.values() if c.type == hikari.ChannelType.GUILD_TEXT])}`"
