[fresh orchid]

Is this the right channel for the problem?

[potent spear]

not really but
data_dict = {yourshit}

[fresh orchid]

ok

[potent spear]

I'll show you this

maybe that'll help

for key,value in data_dict.items():
  print(f"message_id_string is {key}, messages_count is {value['messages']}")```

[fresh orchid]

Thx I'll try

[manic wing]

[potent spear]

not in the mood to copy ofc

[tidal hawk]

How can I set slash registration to be local inside Cog

i tried making it local from main.py but it didn't work

do i define new bot?

[slate swan]

eh?

[cold sonnet]

just think about it brotha

if you define new bot

and put commands inside new bot

old bot won't have those commands

and since you can only run one bot

you either won't have old bot or new bot

[tidal hawk]

Yeah that was a stupid guess

[slate swan]

supply the bot variable to te cog a basic cog structure ```py
class MyCog(commands.Cog):
def init(self , bot):
self.bot = bot

def setup(bot):
bot.add_cog(MyCog(bot))```

[tidal hawk]

Just tried creating local registration for slash commands, but it doesn't work

[slate swan]

you get this if you understand what __init__ is and how oop works

Ah

For slash?

[tidal hawk]

Mhm

[slate swan]

What library are you using

[tidal hawk]

disnake

[slate swan]

use commands.slash_command

Just like you use commands.command instead of bot.command in cogs
bot.slash_command is commands.slash_command

[tidal hawk]

Tried it a while ago:

it doesn't show up in guild

[slate swan]

cof cof

in main file it's bot.slash_command

not commands.slash_command

[tidal hawk]

:)

[slate swan]

get a covid checkup buddy

[tidal hawk]

it was in cog

[slate swan]

yeah, got it yesterday, thanku so much for caring

[slate swan]

and the magical argument self ?

:)

[slate swan]

Great

[slate swan]

poof?

[tidal hawk]

Got too used to pycharm, it used to self by itself :(

Gives me error: Failed to overwrite commands due to missing access, but the bot has all of the permissions

[slate swan]

you didn't invite it with application command scope

[slate swan]

it disappears just like my consciousness

[slate swan]

welp

[slate swan]

🫂 cry about it

random person : i get this error
Ashley : cry about it with a hug emoji

😂

[tidal hawk]

comedy peak

[slate swan]

let's not start an ot chat hehe , the channel is being a bit off topic these days

[tender estuary]

Is it good to switch from discord.py to hikari?

[slate swan]

imo, sure

[velvet tinsel]

get ready for a based answer

[tender estuary]

Because I did and now I am messed up

Probably gotta get hang of it first

[slate swan]

well if you don't like learning everything from scratch. Use a fork instead

[velvet tinsel]

a fork of dpy?

[slate swan]

since it's no way similar to discord.py

[slate swan]

Yea

[manic wing]

use disnake so you can have access to disnake-debug

[velvet tinsel]

disnake

[slate swan]

probably disnake

[manic wing]

[slate swan]

Indeed

[velvet tinsel]

yes disnake 💪

[manic wing]

yes disnake-debug 💪

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

imo disnake is a pretty great fork of danny's dpy, unlike Pycord

[slate swan]

Danny doesn't like pycord himself.

[velvet tinsel]

when

[velvet tinsel]

who does

[ashen notch]

Play nice or hush

[slate swan]

There are people for sure , depends..

[manic wing]

me and dekriel are great friends 😄 nods convincingly

[velvet tinsel]

I don't have friends

[slate swan]

Most of the people here won't prefer hikari

but i use it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[manic wing]

he talks like this, he deserves to get attacked

[ashen notch]

You guys think it's going to circle back around to there being one big one or do you think it'll end up like Linux distros? Too many flavors, not enough substance

[manic wing]

i need to go insult him in the jss

[velvet tinsel]

alr meet you there

[manic wing]

i reckon linux distros because some people have passionate love for hikari/the irrelevant ones, whereas others will be fighting over pycord/nextcord/disnake - if any ends up on top it will be disnake, no doubt about it

[velvet tinsel]

thanks for having @ off

[slate swan]

if you're talking about the forks
I assume there are 4 or 5 forks which people really prefer atm
And it would settle soon with a best one maybe?

[velvet tinsel]

how's fedora

[manic wing]

wrong server

[velvet tinsel]

there's no real need to migrate from dpy because you can still use it, but it's pretty outdated and discontinued

[velvet tinsel]

I literally pinged you in jss

[slate swan]

there are people who prefer other libraries like hikari or pincer too

[ashen notch]

I'm hoping that's the case

[slate swan]

which one of these forks has a decent cache?

so tired of dpys cache lol

[maiden fable]

forks have the dpy cache only lol

[slate swan]

You can't compare the cache between forks

[maiden fable]

they are "dpy forks"

[slate swan]

But hikari does have better cache impl for sure

does hikari have a proper cache?

yes , and it's upto 2x faster :)

[velvet tinsel]

https://github.com/hikari-py/hikari AHHH uh...it's gonna take some time for me to go through this

[slate swan]

that doesnt mean they cant improve over it

Time to migrate to hikari then lol

[maiden fable]

Hmm, talking about disnake, I hardly hardly hardly think they gonna change the basic implementations of stuff

[velvet tinsel]

I mean...some people just download Danny's dpy, CTRL+R and replace "discord" with their own name

[slate swan]

It doesn't have an inbuilt command handler like .ext.commands tho
Instead it has 2 "decent" different command handlers : lightbulb and tanjun

[velvet tinsel]

I haven't really worked on my discord python project but then again, I'll have to make it as terrible as possible, hence the name "trashcord"

[slate swan]

dekriel,let's not talk about the time you take to do things

[velvet tinsel]

it doesn't have async, let alone def. I'm gonna make this a nightmare for discord bot developers 💀

[velvet tinsel]

oh, hello Sasuke

[slate swan]

the emojis for jarvide , you made us wait forever

[velvet tinsel]

I never realized you were Sasuke

[slate swan]

Sarthak*

[velvet tinsel]

jarvide's dead lmfao

[velvet tinsel]

wtf

[slate swan]

Hehe

[velvet tinsel]

ok

[manic wing]

he never did them

[manic wing]

because you dont know how to code and add crap commands? agreed

[manic wing]

hes sarthak, the one whos good at coding

[velvet tinsel]

nobody really works on it lmao

apart from a few people

[slate swan]

the few people are literal "gods"

[manic wing]

nah we stopped working on it

[modern fiber]

Sends only first word as reason uh? This is the code.

[manic wing]

ropra is the only one who works on it lol

[modern fiber]

I did .kick user being ultra cool

[slate swan]

😬 didn't you like buy a domain and everything for it already?

why stopped with the development?

[manic wing]

meh the domain was like $8

[velvet tinsel]

you haven't responded yet in jss, I thought you said you were gonna insult me

[modern fiber]

Help someone?

[manic wing]

idk how to advertise so i dont really see it going anywhere

[manic wing]

im sorry dekriel, i dont give enough shits about you to insult you

[velvet tinsel]

you come up with the worst insults, I don't blame you for that

[modern fiber]

Can you help? @velvet tinsel

[manic wing]

as if dekriel can help xD

[velvet tinsel]

I'm reading an article https://www.forbes.com/sites/cognitiveworld/2020/12/29/ethical-concerns-of-ai/?sh=6643b1e723a8 wanna read it with me?

[modern fiber]

can you smh

[manic wing]

i think you mean , *, reason = None to get all arguments after member. use visual studio code i beg, that ide is painful

[tender estuary]

Ethical concerns..

[modern fiber]

mk

[tender estuary]

add a kwarg

[modern fiber]

Should I put this after async def kick (ctx,

[modern fiber]

kwarg?

[tender estuary]

async def test(ctx, *, reason=None)

[velvet tinsel]

how

[tender estuary]

Key word argument

[manic wing]

?

[velvet tinsel]

Pycharm is an amazing IDE

[manic wing]

maybe this is why you aren't good at coding

[tender estuary]

Visual studio is NOT an IDE

its a text editor

[maiden fable]

Hey BTW since I got an i3 11th gen, should I use PyCharm or use VSC only 🤔

[modern fiber]

Like this?

[velvet tinsel]

no wonder why there were lots of PEP8 shit in jesterbot

[tender estuary]

sorry not a kwarg a variable argument

[modern fiber]

so I do..?

[tender estuary]

what do you want the variable argument to be, I say before reason put the star

[tidal hawk]

Broo I invited the bot with these scopes, but it still gives me error: SyncWarning: Failed to overwrite commands Missing access after trying to create local slash

[tender estuary]

I have a doubt, do you put the * before the reason because every character of the reason we give is stored as a character and not a string?

because if it is stored as a string why use *

[modern fiber]

Like this?

[tender estuary]

Yes

[maiden fable]

weirddd

[tender estuary]

But why the space

[sage otter]

Visual Studio is an IDE. Visual Studio Code isn’t an IDE.

[modern fiber]

well it still works ig?

[velvet tinsel]

you keep editing it

[manic wing]

i can do black . if i really give a shit about pep-8, but dont talk about pep-8 when you learnt what it was yesterday...also didnt you make a pull request thinking adding comments creates command descriptions? https://github.com/CaedenPH/Jarvide/commit/d13b4c8a8045c776534e86c726af902ee689bc4a

sorry i took a shit halfway through writing that

[sage otter]

Mobile problems

[velvet tinsel]

I never said it added descriptions, I just thought maybe comments were needed in the bot

[velvet tinsel]

ok

[sage otter]

You added the most self explanatory comments

# google command
Well obviously. Anyone reading can determine that.

Why didn’t you actually comment on the code inside the commands. And describe those instead.

[modern fiber]

Do I state perms like

kick_member or kick_members

[sage otter]

kick_members

[compact ruin]

Ah i see

[maiden fable]

Rip

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[exotic bear]

you should probably just use py-cord if you're gonna need to install a module for every other discord feature

[slate swan]

ahem ahem p-pycord?

who is that?

[exotic bear]

its a maintained fork of discord.py

which all the latest fancy features

[compact ruin]

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

[slate swan]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20101834/pip-install-from-git-repo-branchone of them should help ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[exotic bear]

for that you should just do pip install discord.py

[slate swan]

no ew

2.0 isnt on PyPi yet

[exotic bear]

oh

[slate swan]

yep

[exotic bear]

nvm then

[slate swan]

its alright, I'll save you further humiliation and not talk about it

[exotic bear]

they still update dpy??

[slate swan]

huh? no

[exotic bear]

then how is there a version 2?

[compact ruin]

Is it okay to throw my pc out the window

[slate swan]

2.0 was the last update before it was scheduled discontinued

[slate swan]

🫂 I got my new one today, I feel the pain

[exotic bear]

oh so it was under development isee

[compact ruin]

Truly been trying to fix this for 30min

[slate swan]

yeah, most probably cuz discord is gonna deprive bots apps of message intents

it wont be continued anymore

at least not as of now

[exotic bear]

discord's policies hella trash

[slate swan]

they've got a point ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[exotic bear]

it's gonna cancel two of my bot's beloved features

[slate swan]

You're just gonna have to shift all of your bot to slashes

[potent spear]

which are? (the "beloved features")

[exotic bear]

already done that 😎

[compact ruin]

A H H H H H H H H

[exotic bear]

auto responses and automod

Ayo, how do I import {} from a json file into a code ?

@client.command()
async def test(ctx):

    with open("file", "r") as file1:
        test = json.load(file1)
    
    await ctx.send(test)

[fresh orchid]

so I have this json file and now I used this code to print the fivebiggest message amounts

        leaderboard = []
        for key,value in users.items():
        
            leaderboard.append(value['messages'])
        leaderboard.sort(reverse=True)
        print(leaderboard[0])  
        print(leaderboard[1]) 
        print(leaderboard[2])
        print(leaderboard[3])
        print(leaderboard[4])

So I just have five numbers after that
Is there any way to the id again with that number
Or is there a way where I can sort the messages amounts and keep the ids with them?

[slate swan]

load the file data onto a variable

[maiden fable]

damn I can hear the fans

[slate swan]

!d json.load

[unkempt canyon]

json.load

json.load(fp, *, cls=None, object_hook=None, parse_float=None, parse_int=None, parse_constant=None, object_pairs_hook=None, **kw)```
Deserialize *fp* (a `.read()`-supporting [text file](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-text-file) or [binary file](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-binary-file) containing a JSON document) to a Python object using this [conversion table](https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html#json-to-py-table).

*object\_hook* is an optional function that will be called with the result of any object literal decoded (a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "dict")). The return value of *object\_hook* will be used instead of the [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "dict"). This feature can be used to implement custom decoders (e.g. [JSON-RPC](http://www.jsonrpc.org) class hinting).

*object\_pairs\_hook* is an optional function that will be called with the result of any object literal decoded with an ordered list of pairs. The return value of *object\_pairs\_hook* will be used instead of the [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "dict"). This feature can be used to implement custom decoders. If *object\_hook* is also defined, the *object\_pairs\_hook* takes priority.

[compact ruin]

Nope not wrken

[slate swan]

insane

[maiden fable]

At least I got a SSD in the laptop, so it isn't that slow

Remove that one with discord.Client()

[compact ruin]

Is there a reason it wont let me use git clone on vsc

Do i need to install git separately-?

[slate swan]

Yep

[compact ruin]

How ze flip-

[slate swan]

ofcourse

[compact ruin]

I hate you github

[slate swan]

why don't you use the command hunter sent?

pip install git+... One

[compact ruin]

I tried both

[dire scaffold]

[compact ruin]

Now I want to sort them by the message number. How can I do this without removing the id or is there a way to sort it without id and get the id later again

If this isnt the right channel just say which one is right

[dire scaffold]

i have do in another code and it's still error

hello! I have this button which i want to have a custom emoji as an icon. But i get this```python
(label=f":phantomaki:", style=nextcord.ButtonStyle.gray)

[fresh orchid]

yes but i dont understand it

[potent spear]

you did? well show me the link

[marble rampart]

hey

someone need help ?

[river flare]

?

[marble rampart]

i think there is an emoji arg

[velvet tinsel]

custom emojis need the ID

[marble rampart]

like (emoji=":phantomaki:")

[velvet tinsel]

for example

!pithink

there, ID shit

@river flare

it actually says on the button the ID so you can just c&p

[slate swan]

use the emoji kwarg

[river flare]

like this? :935626436985909309:

I'm trying to make it print the variable currentWeather in the terminal but it says it's not defined.

[final iron]

currentWeather is in another function

You cannot access it like that

[slate swan]

why so many ifs

elif is a thing

[final iron]

Also, you should check out pep8

[slate swan]

i follow pep8 to much lmaooo

[final iron]

I follow all of pep8 except for the 120 or whatever character limit

Fuck that limit

[slate swan]

72

isnt it 72 for max line

[final iron]

Seems too little

[slate swan]

i follow the max line

rule and i get hated for it lol

[final iron]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

youve seen my methods right?

[final iron]

No

[slate swan]

bruh hold up

[manic wing]

use a dict

[velvet tinsel]

I thought you were gonna say something else

[slate swan]

👁️ 👁️

[final iron]

Wtf

How can you read that

[slate swan]

got to follow it bro

[final iron]

That's why I don't follow it

Actually makes some shit unreadable

[slate swan]

you have to😤

like me👁️ 👁️

[final iron]

No

[manic wing]

okimii

[final iron]

I refuse

[manic wing]

i follow black, and black follows pep-8 right?

[round robin]

how do i get the first channel in a server?

[potent spear]

don't tell me that's pep8

[slate swan]

i dont use black

[velvet tinsel]

Idk if it’s my phone or it looks weird

[manic wing]

this is pep-8

[slate swan]

yes

[manic wing]

its not

[slate swan]

nope

[potent spear]

aight, it better not be

[manic wing]

okimii you think thats what pep-8 is, but it just isnt

[velvet tinsel]

Uh oh

[slate swan]

if i do it the black way it will still break the max line rule

[next wing]

can i get some help with a command for my discord bot in #help-carrot

[manic wing]

thats not how the 'max line rule' works

[slate swan]

how would it work theres not specification

[round robin]

how do i get the first channel in a server?

[velvet tinsel]

Okimii I feel like you’re doing too many lines for a command

[velvet tinsel]

this is how it normally should look like

[manic wing]

so black and some random python formatter

[vale wing]

You could use the position attribute to determine it

[round robin]

I'm trying to figure out how to use that to get iy

[velvet tinsel]

[round robin]

It

[manic wing]

and some other random one also formats it to ```py
@command(aliases=["kickhammer", "userkick", "memberkick", "banmember", "banuser"])
async def kick(
self, ctx: Context, member: Member, *, reason: str = "No Reason Provided"
) -> Optional[Message]:

!d discord.TextChannel.position

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.position

The position in the channel list. This is a number that starts at 0. e.g. the top channel is position 0.

[dire dove]

I'm trying to send a message to a user and have it time out after 30 seconds or so, how do I do that?

    await ctx.send(f"Challenging {p2.name}!")
    p2_msg = await p2.send(f"{p1.name} is challenging you to a battle! Do you accept?")
    await p2_msg.add_reaction("✅")

[manic wing]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.10)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.10)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.10)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[velvet tinsel]

!d asyncio.TimeoutError for timeout

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.TimeoutError

exception asyncio.TimeoutError```
The operation has exceeded the given deadline.

Important

This exception is different from the builtin [`TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TimeoutError "TimeoutError") exception.

[velvet tinsel]

if you want to catch it

[final iron]

Is there a more elegant way to get user input than wait_for?

[slate swan]

dont understand since even the black way it still breaks the rule

[manic wing]

no

[velvet tinsel]

not that I know of

[final iron]

Damn

[vale wing]

No unless you create your own

[velvet tinsel]

Which is less elegant

[final iron]

A text box would be very nice

Where you can type

[velvet tinsel]

😔

[vale wing]

I remember discord was talking about something like that

[manic wing]

pep-8 is supposed to be readable, presentable and efficient. this is hardly readable, and its inefficient through its usage of lines

[velvet tinsel]

Would be pretty cool if you could send commands to the bot via VC 😳

[slate swan]

then why add the max line limit

[final iron]

It is possible

[manic wing]

https://github.com/caedenph/jesterbot/tree/main/cogs/Feedback.py#L15 so this doesnt happen

[velvet tinsel]

o

[final iron]

Discord bots get send voice packets iirc

[manic wing]

wait

fuck wrong command

[dire dove]

@manic wing @velvet tinsel so

try:
  bot.wait_for(on_reaction, *, check=None, timeout = 30)
  await ctx.send("You accepted the challenge!")

except asyncio.TimeoutError:
  await ctx.send("You did not accepted the challenge!")

[final iron]

Then you can use a speech to text library

[manic wing]

https://github.com/CaedenPH/JesterBot/blob/main/cogs/Feedback.py#L28

[unkempt canyon]

The snippet you tried to send was too long. Please see #bot-commands for the full snippet.

[final iron]

And trigger the event

[manic wing]

this

await thebed(ctx, '', '**Error: **distance must be an integer (an index placevalue) if no `author_from` is given!') if hasattr(distance, 'upper') and author_from is None else await thebed(ctx, '', f'*`{distance}`*: "{data["feedback"]["message"][distance]}", submitted by **{data["feedback"]["author"][distance]}**' if distance != 0 else f'**You can index off of the index on the left side.

``` all one line

[manic wing]

i agree that this might violate pep-8

[final iron]

Ever heard of readability?

[manic wing]

this is just ott

[manic wing]

i made one command as it as a joke lool

[vale wing]

This is pretty readable wdym

[manic wing]

you can make a bot with commands and run it in all one line

[slate swan]

idk this way seems readable to me👁️ 👁️

[potent spear]

if you're blind...

[manic wing]

^

[round robin]

For channel 0 do I do guild.channels[0]

[slate swan]

no👁️ 👁️

[vale wing]

I am pretty sure they are not sorted by the position

[slate swan]

looks like esoteric code

[dire dove]

@manic wing @velvet tinsel is it not on_reaction to end the timer when someone reacts?

[round robin]

guild.text_channels[0]

That is

[vale wing]

@round robin iirc to get the list sorted by position you need to do something like

sorted_list = sorted(guild.text_channels, key=lambda c: c.position)
first_channel = sorted_list[0]```

[manic wing]

(_:=lambda __: __import__('dotenv').load_dotenv);(bot:=__import__('disnake.ext.commands').Bot(command_prefix='_', ...)).run(_((__:=True or False)); __import__('os').dotenv['TOKEN'])```

create bot and run it in one line

im sure you can add commands

[round robin]

What's iirc

[manic wing]

if i recall correctly

[vale wing]

If I remember correctly

[manic wing]

*recall

[vale wing]

Two versions

[manic wing]

you win

[vale wing]

We both do

[manic wing]

no fun

[vale wing]

Is it really possible to use decorators in a single line

[manic wing]

you dont need to

theres prob a way around it

[vale wing]

Maybe define a Command and just add_command

[manic wing]

add_command requires Command to be decorated

i believe

[lofty cedar]

I havent coded in ages xD

[vale wing]

I mean

!d discord.ext.commands.Command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Command

class discord.ext.commands.Command(*args, **kwargs)```
A class that implements the protocol for a bot text command.

These are not created manually, instead they are created via the decorator or functional interface.

[manic wing]

@vale wing

dk

[pine verge]

wont multithreading each client.run work ?

[slate swan]

yeah i tried reinstalling discord and discord py

[slate swan]

yes , but not recommended , and you should not use it without proper knowledge about asyncio

still the same for some reason

[cold sonnet]

why would you tho

[slate swan]

yes

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.when_mentioned

[pine verge]

can you guide me ?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.when\_mentioned

discord.ext.commands.when_mentioned(bot, msg)```
A callable that implements a command prefix equivalent to being mentioned.

These are meant to be passed into the [`Bot.command_prefix`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.command_prefix "discord.ext.commands.Bot.command_prefix") attribute.

[weary mirage]

[cold sonnet]

!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.

[slate swan]

thanks ill give it a try

[quaint epoch]

maybe using a on_raw_reaction_add event?

i had the same problem A LOT

 await ctx.send(f"{p1.name} has started a typing contest!")

is the error really in this line

[slim ibex]

obv not

Is row a param in the function?

[weary mirage]

oh goddd

okay wait, my apologies

it's something else

[flat solstice]

So I've seen this nonce (int) – The nonce to use for sending this message. If the message was successfully sent, then the message will have a nonce with this value. in the dpy docs (https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html?highlight=dm#discord.DMChannel) but i'm not sure how to use it. Does this mean my bot will know when a message doesn't get sent (i.e. if it tries to send a message to someone's DMs but they have them closed so it errors) because that seems like something I would find incredible useful for when my DM on_member_join doesn't get sent, I can just redirect it to a channel instead. ik I should catch these kinds of error's in on_error in a error handler but i'm not doing that (yet anyway)

Also is it possible for the bot to know if the user has their DMs closed? So I can say "if member.dm.closed send join dm to channel else send to dm"

[slim ibex]

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

isinstance(object, classinfo)```
Return `True` if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument, or of a (direct, indirect, or [virtual](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class)) subclass thereof. If *object* is not an object of the given type, the function always returns `False`. If *classinfo* is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other such tuples) or a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union) of multiple types, return `True` if *object* is an instance of any of the types. If *classinfo* is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") exception is raised.

Changed in version 3.10: *classinfo* can be a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union).

Similar names: 2to3fixer.isinstance

[slim ibex]

You can use this to check if the channel is a dm channel

[dire dove]

it's saying user isn't passed into check

[cold sonnet]

or if message.guild is None

[slim ibex]

^

[dire dove]

@quaint epoch figured it out, i had to do channel.send instead of sending it in a dm

[flat solstice]

that's sort of what i'm after, but i more want to know if it's possible to know if a user has their DM's closed (which i'm guessing I can't?). I also saw a await create_dm(), would this fail if the user has their dms closed?

[slim ibex]

I believe so

I'm just so fucking confused now, this won't work

```ValueError: parameters are of unsupported type```

that is a weird query

!d discord.DMChannel @flat solstice

[unkempt canyon]

discord.DMChannel

class discord.DMChannel```

tf do I do 😭

[pine verge]

so i tried it and it seems to work, but i have a question

loop.create_task(client2.start(TOKEN))
client.run(TOKEN)

what difference does it make if i swap the clients ? how will the logic work

im not very familiar with asyncio and discord py

[slim ibex]

Don’t run 2 clients at the same time

no point in doing so anyways

Just make two separate projects

[pine verge]

it is achieving what i want

but can you explain how does run differ from start

or like how will it change if i swap the order\

[slim ibex]

!d asyncio.create_task

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.create\_task

asyncio.create_task(coro, *, name=None)```
Wrap the *coro* [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine) into a [`Task`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task "asyncio.Task") and schedule its execution. Return the Task object.

If *name* is not `None`, it is set as the name of the task using [`Task.set_name()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.Task.set_name "asyncio.Task.set_name").

The task is executed in the loop returned by [`get_running_loop()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloop.html#asyncio.get_running_loop "asyncio.get_running_loop"), [`RuntimeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#RuntimeError "RuntimeError") is raised if there is no running loop in current thread.

This function has been **added in Python 3.7**. Prior to Python 3.7, the low-level [`asyncio.ensure_future()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-future.html#asyncio.ensure_future "asyncio.ensure_future") function can be used instead...

[slim ibex]

!d discord.Client.run

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.run

run(*args, **kwargs)```
A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use [`start()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.start "discord.Client.start") coroutine or [`connect()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.connect "discord.Client.connect") + [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.login "discord.Client.login").

Roughly Equivalent to...

[slim ibex]

the client.run creates the event loop for you

[flat solstice]

How can I check who adds a reaction to a message?

[quaint scaffold]

You'll want to utilise a class variable in that case.

[quaint scaffold]

!d discord.on_raw_reaction_add

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_raw\_reaction\_add

discord.on_raw_reaction_add(payload)```
Called when a message has a reaction added. Unlike [`on_reaction_add()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_reaction_add "discord.on_reaction_add"), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

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

[flat solstice]

also if i'm doing a wait_for(raw_reaction_add it would be self.bot.wait_for right?

[quaint scaffold]

Yes

[slate swan]

depends what bot is

[quaint scaffold]

Assuming it's in a class / cog, if you used bot it would error out and say it's not defined

[slate swan]

if self.bot = bot then yes

[echo pivot]

Hello, I have made a discord bot using replit, it sends messages to a server at a certain time.
But for seemingly no reason, the bot goes offline after sending the first two messages. The code is still running in replit and no errors occured.

[slate swan]

show the code

[echo pivot]

from discord.ext import commands, tasks
import os
import json

  data = json.loads(Path('tasks.json').read_text())

  for item in data:
    for param in sent_data.replace('`', '').split(','):
      param = param.strip().split('=')
      if item['id'] == param[0]:

        f'<@&{active["ping"]}>',
        client.get_channel(active['channel']),

      if item == sequence_current:
        is_next = True
    if is_next:
      return active_item

Also the bot randomly came back online overnight after this happened. Not sure what's up with that.

[slate swan]

whats serve()

[echo pivot]

from flask import Flask
from threading import Thread

app = Flask('')

@app.route('/')
def home():
  return "Running TaskTracker..."

def run():
  app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8080)

def serve():
  t = Thread(target=run)
  t.start()

Sorry, forgot about that.

Also it's being pinged every five seconds by UpTimeRobot.

And the same thing occurs when commenting out serve()

[slate swan]

probably that not sure how its used but maybe its that

[echo pivot]

^ It's not

[slate swan]

snow can help with flask lol

[patent lark]

uptimerobot isnt made for pinging your bot.

not a good idea

[echo pivot]

Why so?

[patent lark]

uptimerobot is made for monitoring sites.

and either way, your bot will still go offline quite often using uptimerobot

[echo pivot]

Will it work if I just make it send a message every hour or so?

To keep it active.

[patent lark]

well, uptimerobot will still keep your bot alive, most of the time. but its not efficient as it will still go offline.

[echo pivot]

Right

[echo pivot]

Will this work then? I'm not really sure how this all works.

[echo pivot]

It's unrelated to flask.

[slate swan]

probably is

[echo pivot]

It still occurs when not using it.

So unless I'm much mistaken about python code, it's not related to flask in any way.

[slate swan]

its a connection issue

[echo pivot]

How can I fix that?

if that's even possible, because it's most likely replit or discord

[slate swan]

probably the server youre connected to

[slate swan]

not discord

[echo pivot]

Yeah, didn't think so

[slate swan]

if your bot got disconnected and connected again at different times so its not a restart that is a connection issue not related to discords websockets

[patent lark]

like said, thats uptimerobot

its not made for pinging discord bots

[slate swan]

^

[echo pivot]

But even when not using that, it still occurs.

[slate swan]

and if it were discord it would raise one of the 500 codes

[echo pivot]

Okay I have disabled uptimebot for the heck of it.

Same thing

It disconnects after the first two requests.

[digital sigil]

i have a question, so im working on stuff with prints for python and i was wondering how do i keep my file open after the print command?

[final iron]

#python-discussion

How is this looking

One thing I don't like is there is no way to download it

!d disnake.File

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.File

class disnake.File(fp, filename=None, *, spoiler=False, description=None)```
A parameter object used for [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.abc.Messageable.send "disnake.abc.Messageable.send") for sending file objects.

Note

File objects are single use and are not meant to be reused in multiple [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.abc.Messageable.send "disnake.abc.Messageable.send")s.

[slate swan]

should be able to exit the command and change the size of the pictures

[final iron]

Can't do that I'm afraid

I'm getting images from an api

[slate swan]

press the img and download it as an attachment

[slate swan]

ic

[final iron]

It's from a url

I'll make it so the user can decide what file format

If I send the file will it automatically embed in to the image?

[slate swan]

if a url endswith .png or jpg it most likely will get embedded by discord

[final iron]

Aight

Server was down for a sec

[slate swan]

lol

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @steel void!

You either uploaded a .txt file or entered a message that was too long. Please use our paste bin instead.

[steel void]

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

is ther a better way tod o this

feel free to ping me

[boreal ravine]

not really if you want messages to trigger stuff

[slate swan]

yes commands and listeners

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[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.

[slate swan]

use the commands in the bot framework

[boreal ravine]

^

[slate swan]

msgs trigger commands

[boreal ravine]

msgs?

[slate swan]

messages

on_message event should be used for filters and others

commands should be used for stuff like this

if he doesnt want the prefix then yes you are correct

[boreal ravine]

no

[steel void]

i dont want the prefix

[slate swan]

then dont add one if you want none or use on msg

[brisk brook]

How do I create a blackjack game using discord py

AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'process_commands'

how to fix this error

im using pycord

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

[pliant gulch]

Your still required to pass one, but if you see command_prefix to an empty string that would trigger on all messages

[slate swan]

yeah ik

didnt know it was required tho

wdym

like the right quotes?

" is quotes and `` are back ticks

quotes

       await self.bot.add_roles(user, role)```
**Error is context doesn't support create_role** (How to fix this?)

[slate swan]

nah its quotes

[slate swan]

because it doesnt

!d discord.Guild.create_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_role

await create_role(*, name=..., permissions=..., color=..., colour=..., hoist=..., mentionable=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

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

All fields are optional.

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

Changed in version 1.6: Can now pass `int` to `colour` keyword-only parameter.

[vale cedar]

ok tks

[slate swan]

yw

[slate swan]

        if message.content.startswith('.donate'):
                args = message.content.split(',')[1:]

Right now, .donate abc, abc
takes .donate abc as the first arg, how do I avoid this? (Reason I am using startswith is because I dont want my bot prefix here)

[slate swan]

split the content then check the first part

[slate swan]

How? I dont understand what you mean.

[slate swan]

!e

a = "string,another_string"
b = a.split(",")
print(b[1:])

[unkempt canyon]

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

['another_string']

[slate swan]

split returns a list which you index

Yeah I dont think you understood my issue..

Hold on

i gaved a example whats so confusing about implementing it to your code?

and its not a string

Yeah there, the args are abc2 and abc3 BUT abc is not an arg because there is no comma after donate

I want abc to be an arg without having to have a comma after .donate

!e

a = ".donate abc, abc2, abc3"
b = a.split(",")
print(b[0:])

[unkempt canyon]

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

['.donate abc', ' abc2', ' abc3']

[slate swan]

.donate abc becomes the whole arg.

just replace .donate

Wym?

!e

a = "string,another_string"
b = a.replace("string", "", 1)
print(b)

and check all arg but just replace it once

[unkempt canyon]

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

,another_string

[feral ridge]

I have a server that receives webhooks and want to send the response with my discord bot

how can i do so ?

[boreal ravine]

just use commands mate

[feral ridge]

i use flask btw

[final iron]

flask user

[exotic bear]

what does it show after you run the commands

[vale wing]

Personally I just send raw requests to the discord API (maybe that's not a good method but I haven't found anything better)

[novel bolt]

hey can we send multiple embeds?

[slate swan]

If you arent able to download the official dpy, just install a fork from pypi

• nextcord
• disnake

[slate swan]

Use the embeds parameter in the send method and pass in a list

[novel bolt]

ohh thank you very much

[slate swan]

Welp

[slate swan]

Its alright

[quick gust]

we usin let in python now?

[maiden fable]

py-cord*

[slate swan]

Dont be such a boomer princess

[maiden fable]

pycord is an entire different library which isn't even a fork

[slate swan]

Yeah cuz why not

[maiden fable]

!pypi pycord

[unkempt canyon]

pycord v0.1.1

Convenient wrapper on top of FFmpeg

[quick gust]

did you copy javascript code in python or did you forget you are doing stuff inside a python file

[maiden fable]

!pypi py-cord

[unkempt canyon]

py-cord v1.7.3

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[quick gust]

:bruh:

[slate swan]

I'm biased towards disnake

[slate swan]

Lol

[maiden fable]

Just correcting you so that they don't come back and be like: I can't import anything from pycord module

[slate swan]

Lmao, tysm uwu hunter

[boreal ravine]

using aiohttp?

[frank tartan]

how can i do something like

!usercheck <user>

and if the specified user as any role on a list, it says yes, but if not it says no

[boreal ravine]

check if the user is iin the list using the in operator

[frank tartan]

the list has role names though

[boreal ravine]

why did you say user then?

[frank tartan]

basically I want to check if the user has any role thats on the list

[boreal ravine]

then check for the roles in the user and if one of the roles is in the list then say yes, else say no

[frank tartan]

so like

for role in member.roles:
  if role in roleList:
    await ctx.reply("Yes")
    return 
await ctx.reply("No")
```?

[quaint scaffold]

No, you are comparing a discord.Role to a list

[boreal ravine]

member.roles

[frank tartan]

like that?

[frank tartan]

then how do you suggest I do it?

[boreal ravine]

like dan said, use in operator instead of ==

[quaint scaffold]

Well I would use any(), but that's probably a bit too complex for you.

[frank tartan]

for role in member.roles:
  if role in roleList:
    await ctx.reply("Yes")
    return 
await ctx.reply("No")
```?

[quaint scaffold]

Correct

This will work only if your roleList object is a list of discord.Roles

[frank tartan]

it has role names...

[quaint scaffold]

Then it won't work

Use the .name attribute

[frank tartan]

so
member.roles.name?

[quaint scaffold]

No

[frank tartan]

;-;

[quaint scaffold]

!d discord.Role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role

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

[quaint scaffold]

Have a look at it's attributes

But if you're interested in shortening your code, you can adapt this to your needs. Here is an example of how you can use any():

!e py available_ingredients = ['paprika', 'water', 'flour'] recipe_requirements = ['butter', 'milk', 'flour'] print(any(i in recipe_requirements for i in available_ingredients))

[unkempt canyon]

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

True

[frank tartan]

so how can i adapt this into my code?

and what would the second list have for me?

wait

[quaint scaffold]

!d discord.Member.roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.roles

property roles: List[Role]```
A [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") that the member belongs to. Note that the first element of this list is always the default [‘@everyone](mailto:'%40everyone)’ role.

These roles are sorted by their position in the role hierarchy.

[frank tartan]

would one of the lists be the list of roles?

kk

[vale wing]

Yeah I wonder if it is possible to merge it together with the bot without using subprocesses

@slate swan if you want the documentation on something, the module name goes first eg
!d discord.on_message
!d discord.User.avatar

[boreal ravine]

use dpy's http client instead

[vale wing]

Isn't aiohttp server completely different thing

[frank tartan]

it is false no matter if they have one of the roles or not

[boreal ravine]

yes

[slate swan]

oh

[boreal ravine]

use name attribute on role

[maiden fable]

Or str(role) iirc

[slate swan]

!d modulename.where.Classname.method

something like that

[slate swan]

hmm ok ty

[vale wing]

@boreal ravine I mean my API is like

from aiohttp import web

app = web.Application()

#main content of app and some routes

web.run_app(app)```

[slate swan]

i am just trying

[boreal ravine]

oh don't use the http client then

[slate swan]

yw

[maiden fable]

U want to transfer data from yr bot to the website?

[vale wing]

I am just creating a new client session

[maiden fable]

What do you wanna do tho

[vale wing]

That thing is for accepting vote rewards from sites like top.gg, I am looking for a way to merge it with the bot's app without subprocesses or anything

[maiden fable]

Hmm

[vale wing]

And in the future I will use it for the dashboard

[maiden fable]

What people do, is either make the database for the bot and the website on the same machine as the website and request data from it, or create a ws connection

[vale wing]

Tho I doubt I would need it for the dashboard

@maiden fable the issue is I can't access the bot object that I define in bot app from the api app, so I have to done most of API interactions by raw requests

At least I haven't figured out any way yet

[maiden fable]

As I said, use the Discord way of operations

Create a websocket connection with the bot and then request data from it

And use the bot events to send data to the website automatically whenever an event is triggered

[vale wing]

Like this is what I have inside of a route

 ​    ​async​ ​with​ ​ClientSession​(​**​DISCORD_PARAMS​) ​as​ ​discord_session​: 
 ​        ​channel_id_res​ ​=​ ​await​ ​discord_session​.​post​( 
 ​            ​'https://discord.com/api/v9/users/@me/channels'​,  
 ​            ​json​=​{​'recipient_id'​: ​str​(​id​)}) 
 ​        ​channel_id​ ​=​ ​await​ ​channel_id_res​.​json​() 
 ​        ​print​(​channel_id​) 
 ​        ​await​ ​discord_session​.​post​( 
 ​            ​f'https://discord.com/api/v9/channels/​{​channel_id​[​"id"​]​}​/messages'​,  
 ​            ​json​=​{​'embeds'​: [​embeds​.​success​(​'Thanks for Voting!'​, ​'We have sent you the rewards 😉'​).​to_dict​()]}) 
 ​             
 ​    ​return​ ​web​.​json_response​({​'result'​: ​'success'​})```

It might uh be poor formatted don't pay attention I just copied it from my github

[maiden fable]

Don't...

They will count in your bot's requests

Since u will be sending YOUR bot's token

[vale wing]

But I need my bot to send the rewards and to respond

[maiden fable]

Bro

[quaint scaffold]

Send your code

[vale wing]

There's no difference if I send it from main app or from the API it basically does the same but in a worse way

I need to access the bot object from the bot app to be brief

[maiden fable]

Do one thing...

https://github.com/Ext-Creators/discord-ext-ipc

Look into their source code and see what they are doing

[novel bolt]

hey when we use embeds to sendmultiple embeds, the sum of the characters of embeds should be less that 6000 or each embed should have less than 6000 chara?

[maiden fable]

Each

[novel bolt]

when i tried sending each embed 1 by 1 it worked, but when i send all of them together it shows the error Embed size exceeds maximum size of 6000

[maiden fable]

Weird, then could be it's collective

[novel bolt]

hmm it could be

[slate swan]

@dire scaffold, can u send me a frq

[frank tartan]

I’m heading to bed, I will tmr

i got this code inside a cog which is supposed to print the contents of a file every 3 seconds or so, but it doesnt really print anything. the file aint empty too, so are there conditions to loops running?

[quaint scaffold]

The path is most likely incorrect, as the way you are opening it is valid

You have started the task though right?

[slate swan]

hm probably not, as the path is valid

how do i do that

nvm

missed that in the docs

[quaint scaffold]

lol

Make sure to add a before loop and override the cog_unload

cog_unload?

nice

[echo wasp]

Ok so i made the code to run a random choice beg command for someone else to fix the issue it had do i plagiarize the person i’m helping or do i plagiarize myself onto a different bot?

By using the code again

Else where

[slate swan]

Eh?

whats hard in a beg command ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can write it yourself ;-;

[echo wasp]

I did though lol the workings of it

In a differnt discord bot

So do i plagiarize myself by using it again on another bot?

@slate swan

[slate swan]

Wha-

is my english done for good or you cant explain ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

can be better

[tender estuary]

WRote on the run xD

[slate swan]

no need for that aswell lol

[tender estuary]

A habit

I commit whenever I use SQL

[slate swan]

thats what im saying , you dont need to commit there

you arent editing the data so you dont need to commit

[tender estuary]

even if I am not editing the db

[echo wasp]

Lol i have one thanks though

[slate swan]

its only for write operations tho

you arent doing anything to it lol

[tender estuary]

Its just so that I don't mess up a commit somewhere and waste my time finding where

[slate swan]

jeez

[tender estuary]

I can just commit whenever I use SQL as a double check

[slate swan]

nicee

meh i dont like using sqlite in command functions tbh i just make a execute function which takes queries

[tender estuary]

Congrats bro

Btw aren't you in the hikari server?

[slate swan]

yep , i am

[tender estuary]

I saw you there yesterday

[slate swan]

well 👀 i didnt text there in a while

[slate swan]

and your command isnt following pep8 lol

maybe you was me in lucas'? im active there

*was=saw

[tender estuary]

Why did you reply to me with that xD

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