commands.Context and commands.CommandError

"how", do this ctx: Context. Same with error

error type

actually error would return CommandError, you can get the original error with the .original attribute

ah yea, my bad, that's an attribute of CommandInvokeError which can often raised

should work

[boreal ravine]

typehint it to Exception

[visual island]

error (CommandError derived) – The error that was raised.

[novel sky]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[green bluff]

doesnt await ctx.message.delete() delete the authors message

doesnt await ctx.message.delete() delete the authors message

[polar ice]

What are you trying to do?

[green bluff]

delete the message

[polar ice]

Show the code

[green bluff]

that the person sent when he runs the command

#suggest command
@client.command()
async def suggest(ctx, *, reason=None):
    role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name='suggest')
    embed = discord.Embed(title='Suggestion not sent.', description='You need to wait till your previous suggestion gets accepted or denied.')
    if reason is None:
        await ctx.reply("Please enter a suggestion.")
    else:
        
        if role in ctx.author.roles:

            await ctx.author.send(embed=embed)
            await ctx.author.add_roles(role)```

[slate swan]

it deletes a msg

[green bluff]

it deletes the message the person sent

right

[polar ice]

are you trying to delete the embed?

[green bluff]

ohh

and do we add the ()

[slate swan]

depends on placement

[green bluff]

nop

[polar ice]

if so do py ctx.author.send(embed=embed, delete_after=5)

[slate swan]

yes its a method

[green bluff]

i already know that

[slate swan]

.send is a coro

[green bluff]

ty tho

[wide barn]

Anyone have a good github project link for a super basic discord bot?
Want to learn by reviewing an existing bots code.

[slate swan]

you mean a subclass of the Bot class?

[polar ice]

First setup your bot. and just get it to send a message. plenty of YouTube tutorials

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def ban(ctx, member : discord.Member, * ,reason=None):
  await member.ban(reason=reason)
  print(f' {member} was banned')

@client.command()
async def unban(ctx, *, member):
  banned_users = await ctx.guild.bans()
  member_name, member_discriminator = member.split('#')

  for ban_entry in banned_users:
    user = ban_entry.user



    if (user.name, user.discriminator) == (member_name, member_discriminator):
      await ctx.guild.unban(user)
      await ctx.send(f'Unbanned {user.mention}!')```

ohhhh i read that wrong

[wide barn]

Essentially yes. I guess youtube's probably the best place to start from scratch

[polar ice]

Within 5 minutes youll have an active bot. then you can play around with the basics.

[green bluff]

it doesnt work?

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

no yt has allot of outdated code use this
https://vcokltfre.dev/

[polar ice]

await ctx.message.delete()```

[wide barn]

Thanks, I'll take a look.

[green bluff]

okimii said ctx.delete.message() and i already tried ctx.message.delete()

nvm i didnt save last time

[slate swan]

when

[green bluff]

nvm

u didnt oops

mb it was poochingto

[slate swan]

lol

[final iron]

Hello chat

[slate swan]

hi

[green bluff]

hi water

[slate swan]

hes my enemy

a dog👁️ 👁️

cats are better tho

im trying to make a unban command

https://srcshare.io/?id=61f634ee2370934d58a19886

[steel void]

how do I check if the time is negative ```py
hours, remainder = divmod(int(war.end_time.seconds_until), 3600)
minutes, seconds = divmod(remainder, 60)

        await CLIENT.get_channel(937229714098110504).edit(name=f'TG-WAR: {hours}h{minutes}m{seconds}s')

because if the time is negative I want to change the channel name to something else

[velvet tinsel]

>>> cats_are_better_than_dogs
True
>>> 

😳

[slate swan]

Why not use the ids?

[tiny ibex]

So there is a mp4 file in my bot folder and I want my bot to send it to me on discord is it possible using jsk?

[boreal ravine]

yes

wait

send?

why do you want your bot to send instead of play it

[slate swan]

so just, py {user.id}?

[tiny ibex]

I just want it to?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.abc.Messageable.send use this

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, mention_author=None, view=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://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.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 v3.9)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.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://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object.

[tiny ibex]

I asked if it was possible using jsk

[boreal ravine]

yeah

[tiny ibex]

Ik how to send something

[tiny ibex]

And how is it?

[boreal ravine]

!jsk py

file = discord.File(fp, filename)
await ctx.send(file=file)

not that hard

[tiny ibex]

No direct method?

[boreal ravine]

I don't think so

[tiny ibex]

Oof

[boreal ravine]

you always have to use discord.File to send files local or non-local

could be another way but idk

[tiny ibex]

Oof

Off-topic channel: #ot2-never-nester’s-nightmare

Please read our off-topic etiquette before participating in conversations.

[warm forum]

Can anyone help me in dm with my discord bot. I am trying to add a feature to it but unable to do it. Your help would be appreciated.

[fresh orchid]

I have this code

def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client
             
        schedule.every().day.at("09:35").do(self.lrs_stats)

But when I run it I get this error

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'levelroles.lrs_stats' was never awaited

But I dont get where I have to await this

[slate swan]

you need to await self.lrs_stats

but you won't be able to do it since it's a normal function

[fresh orchid]

is there any other solution to dot it?

when I do it like that

def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client
             
    schedule.every().day.at("09:35").do(self.lrs_stats)  ```
self is not defined

[slate swan]

either use a function or do it in the init func

[fresh orchid]

how to?

Everything I try ends in an error

[maiden fable]

def __init__(self, client):
    self.client = client
    schedule.every().day.at(...).do(self.lrs_stats) 

Totally not spoonfeeding

[fresh orchid]

i think this will end in a not awaited error

[warm forum]

can I call this in another async method? ---- "async def on_member_update(before,after):"

[quasi stag]

atleast come up with something urself?

[fresh orchid]

its basically this

[maiden fable]

Idk, it's yr code.

Hmm idrk...

[fresh orchid]

ok but thanks for the help

[warm forum]

can you help with it?

[maiden fable]

Yea, but u will need two member objects, before and after

[quasi stag]

yea, we can help

[maiden fable]

Wait no

Better is to use bot.dispatch()

Not documented

[warm forum]

can you give me an example?

[quasi stag]

you guys should go to discord.py's official discord server

it has better help there

[maiden fable]

....?

[quasi stag]

discord.gg/dpy

[maiden fable]

This is also a support channel...?

[quasi stag]

im just saying theres better support there

[visual island]

you can use asyncio.create_task(), not really awaiting it, but still running the function

[maiden fable]

And who says

[fresh orchid]

ok thanks

[maiden fable]

Just because it's the official support server doesn't mean it got better helpers all the time

[quasi stag]

well not ALL the time

[maiden fable]

And then there's toxicity too. You can't ignore that ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fresh orchid]

Is it possible to use

schedule.every().day.at("09:35").do(self.lrs_stats)

In my main code but leave lrs_stats in the cog
So the thing from the main code activates the function in cog

The problem is when I try it lrs_stats is not defined

[quasi stag]

you dont say theres no toxicity too here

[maiden fable]

At least it's less (almost 0) here

[green bluff]

first two lines of the function should not be in the function at all

and yea ik u meant it as a joke

but if its an actual user pls help him

good

yeh

im also kinda new

but hey everyone has to start somewher

also off topic but i like playing hypixel aswell

nope nothing

stay to topic please!

[green bluff]

sorry

also i recommend using a different variable name

instead of commands use client or bot

oh

[tidal hawk]

Does discord bot rate limiter reset after restarting the bot? Asking that because, returning guild.invites() stopped working after running for 30 minutes, but after restart it worked flawlessly for about 30 minutes.

[slate swan]

I am

I know it wasnt working 🤦‍♂️

[green bluff]

hes asking if u got an error in the terminal

[slate swan]

I was using the same class

and the class already exists

And I changed it to another class

And now it's still not working 🤦‍♂️

    @commands.command()
    async def verifynow(self, member : discord.Member=None):
        print("--------------------- Working on it.")

[slate swan]

It works for my other cogs

[slate swan]

Probably, And I don't recommend

[slate swan]

you miss the Context

[tidal hawk]

You do not recommend what

[slate swan]

Why do I need a context?!

[slate swan]

Do not reset the time

[slate swan]

thats how the library works...

doesnt change it.

[tidal hawk]

context is still needed

even in cogs

[slate swan]

what?

[slate swan]

And it still doesn't work

    @commands.command()
    async def verifynow(ctx, self, member : discord.Member=None):
        print("--------------------- Working on it.")
        guild = self.get_guild(756504534897000528)
        for member in guild.members:
            print(member)

omfg

[tidal hawk]

ctx goes infront self

[slate swan]

OH NO!!!

[tidal hawk]

self is always first param

[slate swan]

member : discord.Member=None

omfg im so dumbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

Why nobody see that

bruh im so dumb 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[tidal hawk]

and now it works?

[slate swan]

it wont.

[tidal hawk]

ctx is usually required

[slate swan]

  @command()
  async def _command(self , ctx : Context):
     ...
``` is the basic syntax for a command in cog

    @commands.command()
    async def verifynow(self, member : discord.Member):
        print("--------------------- Working on it.")
        guild = self.get_guild(756504534897000528)
        for member in guild.members:
            print(member)

it still doesnt work

I will be back in 10 mins...

[tidal hawk]

Because you do not have ctx inside bruh

[slate swan]

    @commands.command()
    async def verifynow(self, member : discord.Member=None):
        print("--------------------- Working on it.")
        for member in self.guild.members:
            print(member)

this?

[tidal hawk]

@commands.command()
async def verifynow(self, ctx, member : discord.Member):

    guild = self.get_guild(756504534897000528)
    for member in guild.members:
        print(member)```

[slate swan]

yep^^

no, that doesnt matter.

it doesn't even print the working on it now

i gtg eat brb in 10 mins ❤️

do you have member intents?

[tidal hawk]

None part doesn't matter

[green bluff]

none means if the member arg isnt given it just resorts to the member being none (I think)

[slate swan]

yes

[tidal hawk]

it's not connected with guild.members

[slate swan]

guild.members would just be an empty list [] if you dont have member intents

[tidal hawk]

guild.members just returns list which your starting to iterate

[slate swan]

ctx.guild returns the current guild , not the guild with the id they provided

[green bluff]

I should really start using cogs

my bot is very very messy

[slate swan]

guild = self.get_guild(756504534897000528)

they are trying to get it with an id

idk if its the id of same server or other

[green bluff]

wait r u saying if i put in another guild i could get the list of all the channels even the private ones?

[slate swan]

if the bot is in the server, yes

[green bluff]

damn

[velvet tinsel]

I got ghost pinged?

[slate swan]

yo

not working :'(

[slate swan]

this is the ID

oh, didnt know

[unkempt silo]

cant read msgs from threads in current v. of discord.py 😦 anything ?

[slate swan]

you need to update to the master branch, or use a fork

[unkempt silo]

im using 3rd party components from discord-components, if i used master branch

buttons not gonna work

its says interaction failed

[slate swan]

the master branch already has buttons.

it just works differently

[unkempt silo]

mm, have to change every single from now neh ?

if i upgraded

the button codes

[slate swan]

ofcourse, thats why 3rd party libs are not recommended

[unkempt silo]

[slate swan]

and they will stop working with time

[unkempt silo]

lmao i cant

imagine rewriting

[slate swan]

im rewriting my bot for the 4th time :)

[unkempt silo]

n i dnt know where else gonna mess

omg same here

is only affect for buttons or

[slate swan]

nothing other than your bot's components code will get affected
and some basic things like user.avatar_url will be user.avatar.url

[unkempt silo]

oh

[slate swan]

yep, and you can always ask about the problems you face here

[unkempt silo]

thanks for ur help, ill try thn n hve to check from first

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Why doesnt this add the image to the embed?

no need to specify the full path

[slate swan]

Ikrrr, I tried with the shorter one too

[visual island]

attachment:// doesn't support absolute path

[slate swan]

nice

[boreal ravine]

y bot_token file

[slate swan]

leaves

f"attachment://{str(inter.author.id)}.png" this doesnt work? you need to send it as discord.File too

[unkempt canyon]

Thanks to discord.py, sending local files as embed images is simple. You have to create an instance of discord.File class:

# When you know the file exact path, you can pass it.
file = discord.File("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", filename="file.png")

# When you have the file-like object, then you can pass this instead path.
with open("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", "rb") as f:
    file = discord.File(f)

When using the file-like object, you have to open it in rb mode. Also, in this case, passing filename to it is not necessary.
Please note that filename can't contain underscores. This is a Discord limitation.

discord.Embed instances have a set_image method which can be used to set an attachment as an image:

embed = discord.Embed()
# Set other fields
embed.set_image(url="attachment://file.png")  # Filename here must be exactly same as attachment filename.

After this, you can send an embed with an attachment to Discord:

await channel.send(file=file, embed=embed)

This example uses discord.TextChannel for sending, but any instance of discord.abc.Messageable can be used for sending.

why do you save the image

[slate swan]

why not

[boreal ravine]

well

idk

are you using an api? or did you just make that image somewhere

[slate swan]

.set_image(url=f"attachment://qrcode{str(inter.author.id)}.png")

umm....okay

the file after being uploaded on discord has nothing to do with its path

oh 1 sec

!d discord.ext.commands.Greedy

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Greedy

class discord.ext.commands.Greedy```
A special converter that greedily consumes arguments until it can’t. As a consequence of this behaviour, most input errors are silently discarded, since it is used as an indicator of when to stop parsing.

When a parser error is met the greedy converter stops converting, undoes the internal string parsing routine, and continues parsing regularly.

For example, in the following code:

```py
@commands.command()
async def test(ctx, numbers: Greedy[int], reason: str):
    await ctx.send("numbers: {}, reason: {}".format(numbers, reason))
```  An invocation of `[p]test 1 2 3 4 5 6 hello` would pass `numbers` with `[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]` and `reason` with `hello`...

[boreal ravine]

use commands.Greedy or *

[cursive spindle]

thanks

[boreal ravine]

both do the same thing

[maiden fable]

No?

[boreal ravine]

yes?

[maiden fable]

commands.Greedy consumes only one type of args, but * can consume args of any type

[boreal ravine]

*member: discord.Member why wouldn't this work exactly

[maiden fable]

This will consume everything after the command, like !cmd abcdefg alphabets 123

[boreal ravine]

yes

that is what they want?

[maiden fable]

But commands.Greedy[int] will only consume that 123

[boreal ravine]

o

[velvet tinsel]

How greedy

[boreal ravine]

not funny

[velvet tinsel]

I’m sorry

[shrewd bronze]

any idea where i can host my discord.py bot?

[nimble plume]

im making music bot i want library

[slate swan]

As Mr. Hunter said

[slate swan]

!ytdl

[slate swan]

it will break youtube's TOS

[nimble plume]

NOT YOUTUBE

[slate swan]

then

[nimble plume]

any other

any that can be available

[slate swan]

any other? what do you mean by "any other"

[nimble plume]

i want to make a discord music bot..

i want i library

[slate swan]

and that library will use youtube_dl and youtube_dl breaks youtube's TOS

[boreal ravine]

Well you can stil make your own without assistance

[nimble plume]

u mean i cannot make music bot

[slate swan]

own

[boreal ravine]

but it's still against ToS ⁉️

[nimble plume]

is the youtube only source available

[slate swan]

kinda

[nimble plume]

..

[boreal ravine]

You can, but it is against YouTube's ToS

[nimble plume]

what if we create our own list of songs..

music/music.mp3

[slate swan]

download any song and play it from your computer then

[nimble plume]

yes

[slate swan]

waste of resources

[nimble plume]

collecting more than 10000 music

[nimble plume]

no other way available

😦

[slate swan]

use hydra 🫂

[nimble plume]

ya but

[slate swan]

lmfao

[nimble plume]

make ur own hydra

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[nimble plume]

and also

mostly ppl who listen music in dc they already know the music..

[slate swan]

huh?

[nimble plume]

or listened it

[nimble plume]

i mean common songs

[slate swan]

just make a command .play which says "go to Spotify"

[nimble plume]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

too smart for this shit

[nimble plume]

suggest a command

[slate swan]

opens spotify
opens discord to search for the song's link by the name of the song

cool command

[nimble plume]

cool..

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @silk lynx!

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

[nimble plume]

umm

[slate swan]

use a dictionary api 🫂

[nimble plume]

ya

dictionary

good idea

[slate swan]

mhm

[nimble plume]

@slate swan is there any translator smh avaialbe

available*

[slate swan]

google translate api

[nimble plume]

do that !pypi

direct link..

!translate english bruh

[slate swan]

!pypi google-cloud-translate

[unkempt canyon]

google-cloud-translate v3.6.1

Google Cloud Translation API client library

[slate swan]

official library

[nimble plume]

alr

[slate swan]

and keep this channel on topic now

[nimble plume]

..

discord bots are fun

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

F.U.N.

[nimble plume]

searching for reference..

[desert cosmos]

is there a way i can change the cog while bot running ?

[slate swan]

https://googleapis.dev/python/translation/latest/client.html

[desert cosmos]

so that i don't have to run bot again and again

[slate swan]

you can use reload/unload/load_extension anytime

[nimble plume]

unmanaged docs spotted

old style

[desert cosmos]

so like will it work the changes i will do in my cog python files next time i reload it

[oblique adder]

Is there a ratelimit on how many time a discord bot can publish an announcement per second ?

[slate swan]

It won't automatically do it, you can just save the file and make a command which reloads the extension

[nimble plume]

@slate swan i have a problem in getting user roles

[slate swan]

Or just use jishaku

!PyPi jishaku

[unkempt canyon]

jishaku v2.3.2

A discord.py extension including useful tools for bot development and debugging.

[desert cosmos]

okj thanks

[slate swan]

You can do .jishaku reload cog

it will reload the cog

[nimble plume]

hikari..

[nimble plume]

.

[slate swan]

Users don't have roles, members do

[nimble plume]

huh ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[nimble plume]

whatever

[nimble plume]

i have a problem in getting member roles

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

Code/error?

[nimble plume]

no it gives an ugly something the id and something

i use member.roles

[slate swan]

it returns a list

and its not ugly

[nimble plume]

no

[slate swan]

show your code

!paste if it's "ugly"

[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.

[nimble plume]

ctx.author.roles

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

was the command used in dms?

[nimble plume]

no

[slate swan]

How do I check if a member has a certain role?

[slate swan]

if Role in Member.roles

[slate swan]

how do I get the role?

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

get_role(role_id, /)```
Returns a role with the given ID.

[nimble plume]

[<Role id=852911589061558332 name='@everyone'>]

[honest shoal]

using their api does not break their tos

[slate swan]

it means that the member has no roles other than discord.py

[slate swan]

Using that with an automated factor/bot does

[nimble plume]

yes

[desert cosmos]

lol

[void mist]

How do i change my bots activity (Playing)

[nimble plume]

ctx.author.roles return [<Role id=852911589061558332 name='@everyone'>]

if there is not role

[slate swan]

@tasks.loop(seconds=60)
async def verifynow():
    guild = client.get_guild(756504534897000528)
    roled = guild.get_role(936340927713259621)
    for member in guild.members:
        if roled in member.roles:
            pass
        else:
            print(member)

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.change_presence

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

```py
game = discord.Game("with the API")
await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.idle, activity=game)
```   Changed in version 2.0: Removed the `afk` keyword-only parameter.

[slate swan]

will this work?!

[slate swan]

Yea so you don't want them to have the everyone role?

[void mist]

i'll try

[slate swan]

lol

[desert cosmos]

if givenrole in member.roles

[nimble plume]

show*

[slate swan]

Yes

[slate swan]

ez

[slate swan]

it should

it worked guys, Ty <3

[slate swan]

use list slicing and remove the last element from the list

Ash, I read it

[slate swan]

that is why I sent it

[desert cosmos]

is hikari better than pycord 2.00?

[slate swan]

hikari is not a fork. And yes it's better maintained and is faster

If you want to use a fork, go for Disnake or nextcord

[slate swan]

why do you even compare pycord with others

[desert cosmos]

why does it matter if it's forked :/

[slate swan]

similar code structure and functions

If you use forks, you don't need to rewrite your bot
If you use hikari, welcome to the rewrite gang

[desert cosmos]

🙃 why wouldn't i use the one which is easier to use and learn with more features if it is so

[slate swan]

Hikari is harder

!pypi disnake

[desert cosmos]

lol you never know until you use

i never changed my code

so far atleast

[slate swan]

Mhm so you may like to try hikari, for the command handler you might prefer hikari-lightbulb

!pip hikari

[unkempt canyon]

hikari v2.0.0.dev105

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

[slate swan]

!pip hikari-lightbulb

[unkempt canyon]

hikari-lightbulb v2.1.3

A simple to use command handler for Hikari

[desert cosmos]

yeah but i did read somewhere hikari is far less developed with community and features than discord.py so i ditched the idea of using it first

does it have UI support ?

[slate swan]

it has always been faster than dpy with development , Except for when it was at an initial stage

[slate swan]

Yes

if you mean components

and slashes

[heavy scroll]

i wanna ask this can you make a discord bot implementing two different languages ?
using a tool or smth . eg python + javascript

[slate swan]

that too

[desert cosmos]

buttons and views stuff i mean

[slate swan]

yeah you can ig

https://github.com/sarthak-py/kakashi/blob/hikari/kakashi/plugins/botmiscs.py#L29-L36

[unkempt canyon]

kakashi/plugins/botmiscs.py lines 29 to 36

@botmisc.command
@add_cooldown(10, 2, bucket=UserBucket)
@command(name="ping", description="Sends bot's latency", aliases=["latency"])
@implements(PrefixCommand, SlashCommand)
async def ping(ctx: Context):
    """Bot's Latency"""
    await ctx.respond(f"🏓 Pong `​{round(ctx.bot.heartbeat_latency *1000 , 2)}`​ ms !")```

[slate swan]

Easier and better

[heavy scroll]

but how do we do it

[slate swan]

Use the same token for both langauges...

But why do you want to use 2 langauges

[desert cosmos]

you just have to use wrapper of the tool in the primary language(which you will be using to run your bot) .

[heavy scroll]

ah ok

[slate swan]

too look cool

[heavy scroll]

becuz my friend knows python and i know javascript better so we thought we could do parts of the project with our own language and then use them both together using some software or tool

but i cant find it anywhere

[slate swan]

Prefer using one language

That would be too messy tbh, your choice anyways

[heavy scroll]

yes true

[heavy scroll]

lmao i saw kakashi and im getting naruto vibes

[slate swan]

It will not allow you to use many features like the command handler ,dynamic HelpCommand and more

[heavy scroll]

ah ok

[slate swan]

How do I make a command to send custom messages (e.g: ?msg @amber beaconrrrr Hello) [sorry for the mention it was accident]

[slate swan]

just use the send method on the member/user object
and you pinged somebody

[slate swan]

How do I use the member object tho?

And how do I tell the bot that my message is Hello?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

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

This implements a lot of the functionality of [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User").

x == y Checks if two members are equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

x != y Checks if two members are not equal. Note that this works with [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") instances too.

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

str(x) Returns the member’s name with the discriminator.

[slate swan]

use a message parameter

Hello

hi

@bot.command()
async def vouches(ctx, arg):
tag = arg

Tag = arg has indent block anyone know why

Eh?

!indent

[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]

and most importantly, learn python

I have decent grasp it’s just I can’t find reason for error

[slate swan]

Haiiiii Pikaaaa

[cold sonnet]

hi

[slate swan]

C.O.O.L.

[cold sonnet]

is there a button type to pick dates

like january 1st

or any kind of number picker button

[slate swan]

You could use the built in version

I can’t think of name

[cold sonnet]

oh, I see, select menus

[slate swan]

use a menu?

[cold sonnet]

yeah prolly

[slate swan]

orait

[cold sonnet]

do I have to add every number to the menu like this

        options = [
            disnake.SelectOption(
                label="Red", description="Your favourite colour is red", emoji="🟥"
            ),
            disnake.SelectOption(
                label="Green", description="Your favourite colour is green", emoji="🟩"
            ),
            disnake.SelectOption(
                label="Blue", description="Your favourite colour is blue", emoji="🟦"
            ),
        ]

[slate swan]

use a for loop with range

if thats okay with you

[cold sonnet]

genius

[slate swan]

xD

[cold sonnet]

and it's gonna add the second button once the person chose a month

cuz like

[slate swan]

wha-

[cold sonnet]

different months different amount of days

[slate swan]

yeah

[cold sonnet]

nice

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def msg(ctx, member, message):
    await member.send(message)

Why this isn't working?

[cold sonnet]

make sure to add a * in the parameters

and provide more information the next time you bring an issue

[slate swan]

I want to send custom messages to members as the bot

[cold sonnet]

what isn't working?

[slate swan]

it's not sending it

[cold sonnet]

is there an error?

[slate swan]

nope

@client.command()
async def msg(ctx, member, *, message):
    await member.send(message)

Current code

[cold sonnet]

does the command run?

[slim ibex]

print something to see if the command even works

[slate swan]

ok lets see

it's not working 🤦‍♂️

[slim ibex]

so nothing printed then (if you did put a print)

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def msg(ctx, member, *, message):
    print("It's working")
    await member.send(message)

It didn't print, Yes

[slim ibex]

are you trying to send in dms

[slate swan]

yes

[slim ibex]

open a dm channel lol

[slate swan]

no...

[slate swan]

no

^

the send method on the member/user object creates the dm for you

[slim ibex]

ah k

[slate swan]

So can someone help plz :'(

[slate swan]

hm?

issue

[slate swan]

nope

[slim ibex]

the command doesn't even work in the first place

it won't print or send a message to the member

[slate swan]

it does now

But it doesn't send the message

[slate swan]

Typehint member to discord.Member

[slate swan]

hm?

you know what a typehint is?

[boreal ravine]

typehint

[slate swan]

@client.command()
@commands.check(is_it_me)
async def msg(ctx, member : discord.Member, *, message):
    print("It's working")
    await member.send(message)

[boreal ravine]

yes

[slate swan]

like this?

Yep

[boreal ravine]

personal preference: use lambda in commands.check

[slate swan]

It's working... :)

[slim ibex]

wait what how does that work

[slate swan]

I don't know how lambda works and the current one is working fine <3

they don't know what typehint is so I don't think Lambda would be a good suggestion got them

[boreal ravine]

lmao

[slate swan]

:'(

that hurt

Didn't meant to be rude,

:'(

[boreal ravine]

commands.check takes a function/method and lambda is a one line function

[slate swan]

But lambda is confusing at times

[slate swan]

everytime

[boreal ravine]

lambda is not confusing for me

[slate swan]

Cause you're a genius, unlike me

[boreal ravine]

[slate swan]

Its okay, huwunter will bless you with this Great Knowledge

[slim ibex]

🗿

[slate swan]

I wish

[maiden fable]

Only Hunter

Also Heroku can host only for 22 days every month, so that's a bummer

[slate swan]

I know, I meant that sarcastically

[slate swan]

make an alt

[slate swan]

indeed

It's still shit

[maiden fable]

It's a pain switching to different accounts and stuff, according to me at least

[slate swan]

Yea

[void mist]

How do I make my bot send an embed?
I already have the embed ready:

[slim ibex]

send the whole command it is in

[void mist]

okay

   if message.content.startswith('u!help'):
        await message.channel.send('There are not much commands, but you can do these ones:')

at py @client.event async def on_message(message):

[slim ibex]

replace ctx.send to message.channel.send

[void mist]

okay thanks

[slim ibex]

and fyi

make actual commands, don't do everything in an on_message listener

[void mist]

ok

thanks for the help

[slim ibex]

np

[honest shoal]

I use disnake and only have application commands in my bot. How do I convert it to Interaction only bot instead of bot user?

[steel void]

how do I check if the time is negative ```py

ur missing definition of "Pag" still

[spring flax]

You can read examples here https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/master/examples/views/select/dropdown.py
Try and learn what it's saying before copying

[oblique cobalt]

also pro tip: dont try to copy codes, try to write on ur own first

[wanton cipher]

doesn't work the way I need it to

[steel void]

aanyone got any idea about my issue im lost ngl

[spring flax]

elaborate

[spring flax]

is this a cog

[steel void]

no

[wanton cipher]

that does not wait for the option to be chosen, and it also doesn't return the value

[honest shoal]

How do I switch to InteractionBot from a bot user, I use disnake

[low marlin]

is disnake the recommended fork rn?

[spring flax]

wdym does not wait for an option

[quaint epoch]

Yes

[spring flax]

yeah

[honest shoal]

its good

[low marlin]

thx^^

[honest shoal]

help please

[cold sonnet]

so what could be the reason for an interaction failed error on discord?

what raises it

[wanton cipher]

if I use the example code and send the message with said view/dropdown, it will continue running all the code below it before an option is chosen, that's why you use await view.wait()

I just am not sure what to make the callback or how to get the value

[cold sonnet]

I send a dropdown menu with a command, the callback of that menu should remove itself from the view, set another view's options and add it to the view, then edit the message, tho all I get is "this interaction failed"

[wanton cipher]

you just don't respond to it

[cold sonnet]

k but I do

[wanton cipher]

then I am not too sure, kinda in the same boat as you rn xD

[honest shoal]

there's a time limit on API, if bot needs more then that time to give out an output the interaction will be failed although there are many reasons

[cold sonnet]

I read somewhere that I should use ctx.defer(), but that's not available in a dropdown menu, so I replaced it with await interaction.response.defer()

not sure if it's the same

[wanton cipher]

it is

is it the first line of the callback?

[cold sonnet]

yes

[wanton cipher]

then I have no idea, sorry

[void mist]

How do I make my bot so it doesn't execute commands if on channels other than bot commands?

[slate swan]

check the channel id

[wanton cipher]

in on_message you can check the messages channel and if it's said channel ,you can proccess_commands()

[cold sonnet]

it fails somewhere here

        async def callback(self, interaction: disnake.MessageInteraction):
            await interaction.response.defer()
            if self.values[0] == "January" or self.values[0] == "March" or self.values[0] == "May" or self.values[0] == "July" or self.values[0] == "August" or self.values[0] == "October" or self.values[0] == "December":
                days = 31
            elif self.values[0] == "April" or self.values[0] == "June" or self.values[0] == "September" or self.values[0] == "November":
                days = 30
            else: 
                days = 28
            Day.options = [
                SelectOption(
                    label=str(day)
                ) for day in range(days)
            ]
            View.add_item(Day(self.values[0]))
            View.remove_item(Month())
            interaction.edit_original_message("Your birthday is...", view=View())

wait

could an in-code error not raise an error but respond with this interaction failed?

[wanton cipher]

maybe, but not sure

[cold sonnet]

no, it's not because of the await at the end

[wanton cipher]

I am sure that it would raise an error though

[slate swan]

try to use print to debug

[cold sonnet]

great

[slate swan]

and do you have a error handler?

[cold sonnet]

no

[wanton cipher]

oh yeah, you need to await the edit thing

[cold sonnet]

new bot, new start

[slate swan]

that as well

since its a coro

[void mist]

so get_channel(id)?

[slate swan]

no just check the channel id

[wanton cipher]

sounds a bit extra xD

[boreal ravine]

help!! https://paste.disnake.dev/?id=1643552620044501&language=python

[cold sonnet]

it didn't print a single number

it doesn't even call the callback function

MY CALLBACK IS IN INIT

    View.add_item(Day(self.values[0]))
TypeError: add_item() missing 1 required positional argument: 'item'

makes total sense

[rocky trench]

Anyone knows how to change bot's voice volume in just 1 guild?

[low marlin]

which option should i choose and why?

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot: commands.Bot = bot

or

    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot):
        self.bot = bot

[slate swan]

Did you import Context , seems like you're using it

[cold sonnet]

it doesn't matter

[low marlin]

oh kk, thx

[boreal ravine]

i'm not

[slate swan]

The second one just has better readability

its just a typehint

[slate swan]

Oh it comes from the library internals. try asking in Disnake server maybe

it doesnt affect run time

[boreal ravine]

ok

[slate swan]

Okimii too smart

lol

[cold sonnet]

disnake.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In components.0.components.0.options: Must be between 1 and 25 in length.

so like I can't make 31 days because of this

in a menu

[slate swan]

wdym

[cold sonnet]

so if I change this number in the source code, am I gonna get arrested?

👀

[slate swan]

yes

[cold sonnet]

cuz I want 31 options

[pulsar shell]

The second one or both at the same time. That’s considered the proper way to do it among type checkers

[slate swan]

welp that sucks but if you do edit src code the fbi is coming for you

[cold sonnet]

I'm gonna do it anyways

[slate swan]

imagine changin src just to make your bot work lol

[cold sonnet]

ctx.author.mention

thats all

okay but now I can't find 25 in the source code from where the error comes, where does it get the 25 from

[unkempt canyon]

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "tiny", line 3, in
        do_something()
    File "tiny", line 2, in do_something
        a = 6 / b
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero

The best way to read your traceback is bottom to top.

• Identify the exception raised (in this case ZeroDivisionError)
• Make note of the line number (in this case 2), and navigate there in your program.
• Try to understand why the error occurred (in this case because b is 0).

To read more about exceptions and errors, please refer to the PyDis Wiki or the official Python tutorial.

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

[haughty quartz]

any idea of how i could improve the text so theres a tab when on new line

[trail oxide]

can you help

[slate swan]

sure but you have to format it first

[trail oxide]

how to

[haughty quartz]

.

[slate swan]

check on top

[slate swan]

wdym by tab?

[haughty quartz]

like 3 spaces or something like that

[trail oxide]

done

[slate swan]

you mean \t?

[haughty quartz]

yes!

[slate swan]

thats 4 lol

[haughty quartz]

something like if songname is 20 characters long: add a \t

[trail oxide]

@slate swan could you help me after

[haughty quartz]

i think ive figured it out

[slate swan]

you have to add py so its formatted as a python code block

[haughty quartz]

with len()

[trail oxide]

how?

[slate swan]

yes you check the length of each sentence

[slate swan]

like above so it will look like this

print("lol")

[trail oxide]

i have done

[haughty quartz]

dude

no

[trail oxide]

oh

[haughty quartz]

after the 3 backspaces add py

well youre using something thats been deprecated so use what has been suggested by the tb

[muted quarry]

Hello, I want to know how I can keep my discord bot online for the whole time my computer is on.
Currently it goes offline after every command.
For example when I run the code from Visual studio code
and I do the command I coded
After the command is executed by the bot it goes offline that instant.
I need to rerun the code for it to come online every time.

[trail oxide]

so what should i do, im not the best for english because im from denmark

[slate swan]

show the commands

[muted quarry]

Do I send it here?

[slate swan]

do what it says lol

[wispy spade]

!paste -- Sure

[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.

[muted quarry]

Ok I will just cut of my token and send it

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

@wispy spade @slate swan

I have written the code with Python 3.10. and Visual Studio code

[slate swan]

i see nothing wrong but don't do anything on ready

make a task

[wispy spade]

there doesn't seem to be anything that would cause it

[muted quarry]

Ok sure

[slate swan]

i doubt that would do anything

[violet nymph]

My friend is having this exact same issue

[muted quarry]

Oh I see

[cold sonnet]

can you show the code?

[fervent blade]

can anybody teach me python for making a discord bot?

[cold sonnet]

oh u did

[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.

[cold sonnet]

I don't know, there's nothing wrong with your code

just this line triggers me
await context.message.channel.send(embed=myEmbed)

use await context.send(embed=myEmbed)

[sage otter]

He’s grabbing a channel and sending a message. Nothing too bad about that. In theory it’s almost the same as printing. But just different locations.

[cold sonnet]

nah

[muted quarry]

Yeas sure

[sage otter]

Yah

[cold sonnet]

no

[muted quarry]

Ok will this maybe fix the issue?

[cold sonnet]

no, it's just memory saving

[muted quarry]

I will do it just give me 2 minutes please

[cold sonnet]

@muted quarry

[muted quarry]

By restarting my bot do you mean my computer @slate swan

[muted quarry]

Ok

[sage otter]

dia you say I’m wrong but you haven’t told me why.

[cold sonnet]

just some prints

[cold sonnet]

making api calls directly after making a lot of api calls will sometimes get you disconnected from the api

or maybe almost always

[sage otter]

It’s a single api call to send a message

A single message

[cold sonnet]

and the api hates it more than anything

[sage otter]

It really doesn’t.

[cold sonnet]

sources

[sage otter]

People do that shit all day. People will send messages as soon as a shard connects to the gateway. Nothing bad happens.

[wispy spade]

In this case, it's likely something external

[muted quarry]

I dont have a vsc

Ohh i thought u meant
a cloud service

My bad

Yea I will restart it one sec

Yes will do

[sage otter]

I mean that’s whatever tho. Just because it’s possible doesn’t mean it’s not bad practice. Like okimii said tasks are nice 👌

[cold sonnet]

[muted quarry]

@slate swan I restarted it and restarted my pc too
It still didn't seem to do the trick

[sage otter]

Are you getting any errors to why your bot is dying

[muted quarry]

No errors

[wispy spade]

hmm, how does it disconnect? does it just exit out of the bot and that's it?

[muted quarry]

It just goes offline

thats it and when i run the code

it comes online and says the message

[haughty quartz]

any idea how i can bypass every space getting deleted on \n (in embed)

[muted quarry]

One second I ran it again
I will just see if it does it again

It doesn't seem to be going offline now
After the restart
But i think I will give it a few minutes and get back to you

[boreal ravine]

are you using replit

[muted quarry]

Visual Studio Code

@slate swan It doesn't seem to be going offline now
I think the restart fixed it

Thanks a lot!
I will let you know if anything happens again

[cold sonnet]

save it

while sending it

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://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.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 v3.9)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.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://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.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 v3.9)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[left crater]

how can i make the bot send a video without having the link at the top

[slate swan]

a local file?

[left crater]

nah

can i use embed

[slate swan]

nope

[placid zodiac]

can you edit a message and remove any existing attachments?

aka, edit message replacing the attached file with another

[left crater]

i think u can only do ur own or the bots

[cold sonnet]

maybe inter.send doesn't return nothing

[quick gust]

i don't think there's a need to type hint it...?

that's probably not causing your error though

you'll need the ID of the message, idk if there's any other way

[slate swan]

async def vouch(ctx, *, reason=None):
  user, vouchs = reason.split(':') 
  message = await ctx.send("sending..") 
  time.sleep(0.3)
  await message.edit(content="**vouch received!!!**")
  vouch = 0
name = ("vouches.txt")
o = open(str(name), 'a')
for i in range:
        user = (f"{ctx.author.mention} vouched {user} reason: {vouchs} ")
        vouchs += 1
        print(f"{user} | {vouchs}")
        o.write(f"{user + vouchs}\n")```

[cold sonnet]

bro still stuck with intents

[slate swan]

😅

[cold sonnet]

o = open(str(name), 'a')```this aswell

[tidal hawk]

asyncio.sleep(0.3) > time.sleep(0.3)

[slate swan]

Ok

[tidal hawk]

bruh

[slate swan]

LOL

!snipe

whats the point of aliasing slash commands, that would just create multiple slash commands with same function

[silk robin]

[placid zodiac]

is there a way to convert a discord.File to a discord.Attachment? Since the discord docs seem to say that you can only remove attachments from a file when editing by re-applying all the attachments (https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#uploading-files).

Since I want to have a message sent with one file, then edit it removing the first file and replacing it with a second

[slate swan]

No payment, the project has started a few weeks ago

[placid zodiac]

are you complaining or actually offering a job that requires three years of competent knowledge for no pay

[cold sonnet]

!rule 9

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

9. Do not offer or ask for paid work of any kind.

[limber isle]

What do you mean, discord.Attachment is the in discord version of of discord.File, you cant just turn a File into an Attachment locally

iirc

[cold sonnet]

paid work of any kind = paid work of 0$

[slate swan]

It is sort of for fun, I am offering to someone who likes the theme of economic games

[slate swan]

its not a paid work bro

[cold sonnet]

it's an offered job

[slate swan]

yeah

the rule says i cant offer paid jobes

[cold sonnet]

so it's against rule 9

[slate swan]

Nope, im not paying anyone

[cold sonnet]

they really have to rewrite that

[dire folio]

Ye

They do

[cold sonnet]

all these lawyers coming here to be smart

smarter than everyone else here

[slate swan]

Sure

[limber isle]

I think the linter is not smart enough for that

[cold sonnet]

isn't filter a keyword

seems from the coloring

[limber isle]

he has overwritten it as a keyword

[cold sonnet]

oh okay

well I've never seen anyone use it anyways

[limber isle]

Yeah I just think the linter has low IQ

[cold sonnet]

tho why are you splitting the message's content?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.content

The actual contents of the message.

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

True

[cold sonnet]

!e

print("hi" in "abcd hi there")```

[unkempt canyon]

@cold sonnet :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

True

[limber isle]

!e print("hi" in "abcdhi there")

[unkempt canyon]

@limber isle :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

True

[slate swan]

no

it checks if 'hi' is there , even if its a complete word or a part of a word

[cold sonnet]

um no

but it's the same outcome, except for what mathias showed

[slate swan]

guys gimme some codes to create a mute command with the bot

[slate swan]

not really py if 'hi' in 'hie there' would be true , but py if 'hi' in 'hie there'.split() wont be

yes because str.split breaks the string into a list of strings , and in would work with the complete words only

[limber isle]

!docs discord.Member.timeout

[unkempt canyon]

Not gonna happen.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

discord doesnt have timeout

!d disnake.Member.timeout

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Member.timeout

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

Times out the member from the guild; until then, the member will not be able to interact with the guild.

Exactly one of `duration` or `until` must be provided. To remove a timeout, set one of the parameters to `None`.

You must have the [`Permissions.moderate_members`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.moderate_members "disnake.Permissions.moderate_members") permission to do this.

New in version 2.3.

[limber isle]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html?highlight=timeout#discord.Member.timeout

Yeah forgot, I use pycord

[slate swan]

timeout in pycord is still beta right?

not in the pypi version

[limber isle]

It actually got realeased to beta yesterday
